As the group were slowly sneaking past the zombie, it suddenly growled, making Joon-yeong to accidentally dropped his water bottle. Wu-jin tried to grab the bottle since it was made of steel and the content isn't contain water, just to avoid having a loud 'bang' sound, but it failed and sounded for a bit, making everyone looked onto them.

Everyone was frozen still. They knew they *bleeped* up from the moment the water bottle dropped.

"Run!," Su-hyeok shouted, making it for the others as a sign to run as fast as they can to avoid being bitten, while the boy fends off the ranging zombie.

They've been running towards the rooftop, looking for an escape, but there where sudden and news. When Jin-ji was trying to help Ji-min up with On-jo, she realized that her adoptive brother was too far behind.

"I need to come back and find oppa.," she then said.

"But-," Nam-ra tried to intervene. "Thanks prez, but that's my brother I'm worried about.," the class vice president countered.

The class president was going to warn her partner but was meet with an advice. "Just go and find your brother, I'll take it from here.," she would say.

With that, Jin-ji came back down while Nam-ra followed the others towards the music room. But the latter is extremely worried. Yes, she will find relief when she sees her own brother again, but her alleged true love could risk her life, just to find her brother and follow suit.

Gwi-nam found the broadcating room empty. The gang have just escaped, but it didn't matter. He just wanted to find Nam-hyun.

He then found the escape plan Nam-ra and Jin-ji crafted which leads him to one idea: they're heading to find Nam-hyun as well. So, he decided to follow them as well, hoping for a good chance he'll find the council president.

On the other hand, Su-hyeok was following the rest of his friends behind while being chased by a zombie. The same zombie that were chasing them earlier following Joon-yeong's water bottle drop.

He struggled to contain the zombie after stumbling in the stairs when all of a sudden, it was stabbed, killing it.

The culprit? Yoon Gwi-nam.

"Thanks.," Su-hyeok said after standing up, with his face full of zombie blood.

"Of course you would. I saved your life.," Gwi-nam answered. "Now, I need to find Nam-hyun. Did you see him?"

"Nam-hyun? Why did you ask for the council president?," Su-hyeok asked back.

"Death.," Gwi-nam simply answered, as if that was the most normal thing in the world.

"What are you talking about?," Su-hyeok asked again.

"I will find him and I'm going to kill him, if you let me find him.," Gwi-nam answered.

Instead of telling where Nam-hyun is, Su-hyeok looked at the surroundings and then at Gwi-nam's. His left eye, his body and the knife that he used to kill the zombie earlier. All covered and full of blood.

"You're badly hurt.," he then would obviously say. "Are you okay?"

"I'm good, don't worry.," Gwi-nam answered. "Now, tell me where the heck Nam-hyun is."

"Stop it.," Su-hyeok the answered. This led the bully to be frustrated.

"Right, you were always like that.," Gwi-nam fired back. "Always ordering to not do this or not to do that but it's okay now. You were always a better fighter than me but you can't do that anymore."
