"HERE," YUNJIN hands Hyeon a can of steaming green beans that were cooking over their small fire.It's been about two days, and Hyeon has yet to see the undead that Yunjin mentioned.
"Yunjin?" Hyeon grabs the attention of the blonde in front of her while she stuffs her face. "What's up?" Yunjin replies as she does the same with her food. "I don't know how to use a weapon properly," Hyeon says while examining her small knife.
Yunjin sets her food down, making her way over to Hyeon. "Here, hold it with a good grip." Yunjin takes the knife out of her hands, tightly holding onto it. "Hold it over your head, and swing down. Or, you can do slashes." She states, showing the correct movements.
"I don't think I'm going to be able to do that." Hyeon looks down, losing her appetite. "This whole situation is unbelievable." "I understand, especially since you haven't seen one yet." Yunjin sits back down on her small log.
"Why don't you go to bed, okay? I'll clean the rest up." Yunjin reaches into one of many bags, pulling out a sleeping bag. She throws it over to Hyeon while placing hers out as well.
"I'll keep the fire going and organize everything. I won't leave you alone, so don't worry about that." Yunjin pats the worried girls head, rushing her to lay down.
"Alright, goodnight." Hyeon says quietly, "Goodnight"

"Time to go hunting!" Yunjin stretches her arms over her head, extending her legs as well.
Hyeon, who has actually never hunted an animal before, looks at the girl with concerns running through her mind.
Yunjin takes notice, and turns to the girl. "I know, I know, you've never hunted before." She puts a hand onto Hyeon shoulder, "Neither have I! Let's go!" She turns around, motioning for Hyeon to follow.
"How can you be so upbeat about this?" Hyeon questions, "Someone has to, otherwise it'll be even more of a hell. Of course, I am terrified. I mean, who wouldn't be?" Yunjin looks at her friend, giving her a sad smile.
"I'll try to be optimistic too." Hyeon clenches her fists. As the two girls make their way through the woods, they still have yet to see any roaming animals.
"This sucks." Yunjin says, "Next time, let's just go to a city. How are we gonna kill anything with a small knife anyway?" Yunjin says with an annoyed tone, Hyeon stays silent as she doesn't want to anger the girl any further.
"I mean, we can split up a bit if you want?" Hyeon says after a few moments of silence. "What? No!" Yunjin stops in her tracks, "Are you crazy? Why would we do that?" She lifts her arms up, only to let the drop to her side again.
"Well, we need food, and we need some water. Even from a small stream, we have a water filter so it'll help us too." Hyeon argues, even though she doesn't want to split up she knows it's for the best to get things done before it gets dark.
