The tension in the room was palpable as we barricaded the door, our hearts pounding in unison with every thud against the wood. I could feel the fear radiating off everyone around me, mingling with my own apprehension as we braced for whatever horrors awaited us on the other side.
"It's Cheong-san and On-jo!!" I shouted, relief flooding through me at the sound of familiar voices. But our reprieve was short-lived as panic set in once more.
"Don't open the door! Don't open it!" Na-yeon's frantic pleas filled the air, her voice laced with terror.
"Can you shut up for once!?" I snapped, my patience wearing thin as the urgency of our situation mounted. "Hurry up!! Lock the door!!"
"Open the door!!" I yelled, my desperation mounting with each passing second.
"I need to open it!" Gyeong-su's voice cut through the chaos, his urgency mirroring my own as he pushed past Wu-jin.
"Move!" His command was forceful as he took charge, his determination unwavering despite the chaos unfolding around us.
The relief that washed over me when Cheong-san and On-jo appeared at the window was palpable, a fleeting moment of hope in an otherwise bleak situation.
"I'm so glad you're alive!" My words spilled out in a rush, a mixture of relief and gratitude coloring each syllable.
But even as we welcomed them into the relative safety of our makeshift refuge, the gravity of our predicament weighed heavily on my mind.
"How's the campus? Are we dead or what?" Gyeong-su's question hung in the air, the uncertainty mirrored in each of our expressions.
"My legs are dead, that's for sure," K quipped, my attempt at humor falling flat in the face of our grim reality.
As the tension in the room mounted, so too did the pounding against the door, a grim reminder of the dangers lurking just beyond our fragile barrier.
And then, just as we thought things couldn't get any worse, there was more banging on the door, the sound echoing through the room like a death knell.
"What the hell?! Who are you?!" Dae-su's voice rose above the clamor, his confusion mirroring our own.
"Asshole! Broth- Brother in law!!" His words were a jumbled mess of panic and exhaustion.
"What the hell happened to you, Dae-su?" I couldn't help but ask, my voice tinged with concern.
"Some crazy jerk sprayed me with a fire extinguisher!" Dae-su exclaimed, frustration evident in every word.
"A fire extinguisher?" I echoed, disbelief coloring my tone.
"Yeah, damn it!" Dae-su's frustration was palpable, his hands balling into fists at his sides.
"Train to Busan!" Cheong-san interjected, his voice carrying a note of urgency.
"The movie?" Dae-su raised an eyebrow in confusion.
"Aren't they zombies? It's the same thing!" Cheong-san's words hung in the air, the gravity of his statement sinking in.
"Zombies at our school? You watch too much TV," He remarked, trying to mask his growing unease.
"I agree. When they get bit, they turn into some mindless zombies," I stated matter-of-factly, though the thought sent a shiver down my spine.
"What if they're vampires? When they get bitten, they turn into a vampire," Dae-su suggested, his tone laced with sarcasm.
"Why the fuck would they be eating people with no brain whatsoever, in the daylight?" I questioned, my voice tinged with disbelief.
"It's true, look!" Cheong-san grabbed Dae-su's hand and walked to the window, his gaze fixed on the scene outside.
