It is morning now. A military jet can be seen flying above Tokonosu city. The jet seems to be taking picture of the events that are happening in the city. On the bridge below, Takashi, who was still driving a bike with Rei behind him, attracted the attention of the pilot. The pilot flew the jet as low as the bridge level and took a picture of them both.

Takashi: On the night before the day everything came to an end, I stayed up late.

Takashi: That's right...everything was normal up until then. I was in the sun, enjoying the luxury of feeling sorry for myself, believing that I should rank around fourth as the unluckiest high school sophomore in the entire world. But at that time everything was already...very close the end. Now that I think about it, I should have just forced my way to the outside then, no matter what. But we were frantically heading to the observation deck, because at that time, it seemed like the best idea. Whatever Hisashi says is always right. I wanted to believe that too. But I knew intuitively that the world we'd been familiar with was already broken. So, i...That's right, at that moment, pretending that things were normal sounded way too dangerous. Then I realized that the school hallway we were walking in with weapons in our hands, preparing for any possible danger, was no longer just the school hallway. That's right, this place is...the country of the dead. 

Last night

Takashi and Rei were looking at the streets that filled with many undead.

Rei: I wonder if anyone will come to rescue us?

Takashi: They're not coming. 

Rei: Why not? How can you be so sure?

Takashi: It's just like the helicopters that we saw from the school rooftop during the day. They can't afford to be rescuing us, and they may never be able to. 

Rei: Never? Then, what are we supposed to do without help of any kind?!

Takashi: We'll do whatever we can. That's about it.

Rei: You're always like that, Takashi. You always say things to ruin the important part of the conversation. You've always done that ever since you were in kindergarten. 

Takashi: I only told you the truth!

Rei: Even if that's the case, there are other ways to say things like that!

They both realized their bickering have attracted many undead.

Rei: Let's go.

Takashi: Yeah...

Takashi started the engine and drove away.

The road that they used is actually not the best one because they are stuck in a traffic jam right now. The outbreak has caused the traffic line to become slower.
