The group stayed back and out of the way. Not wanting to be bit or attacked by Gwi-Nam. It was enough that he had already snuck behind two of the girls in the group. He was a hambie and they didn't have the strength of one. They couldn't hurt him. That was enough to make Gwi-Nam feel superior to them all. It made him crave for the revenge he longed for and he wouldn't spare anyone who got in his way.

Gyeong-Su held a broken pole he had found as he kept it up in case he needed to attack him with it.

Min-Jung quietly stayed with Su-Hyeok. Glancing at her brother and best friend standing before said male. It was intense. Her breathing had regained its normal rhythm but her heart was still racing as it was about to burst through her chest. The feeling of his grip was still there. Nothing more than the aftermath tingle on the spot.

Sung-Hoon sent a glare towards Gwi-Nam. He was determined to get rid of him. The look in his eyes was a burning flame of hatred. "Come on Gwi-Nam. Throw your first hit. Unless you're scared that someone will kick your ass like before. You were weak without having someone telling you what to do. Always following someone like a lost puppy." He taunted.

That sentence alone was enough to make Gwi-Nam's blood begin to boil. He hated when they called him weak and someone's pet. He didn't need anyone but himself and he would prove it. He would do whatever had to be done. Running towards Min-Jung in an effort to tackle her only to be met with Sung-Hoon. His shoulder touching the other male's chest as his arms wrapped around his waist.

Sung-Hoon felt the impact as he didn't fall just yet. Bringing his elbow up before bringing it down onto his back with a good amount of force. Being released as he stumbled onto his feet and balanced himself. Standing straight back up once more and listened to him groaning.

Nam-Ra watched the whole thing as she walked over. "We should get rid of him." She spoke. Glancing at Sung-Hoon. "He could hurt someone else. Are you alright?"

"I'm fine. He didn't get a proper hit." Sung-Hoon spoke as he glanced at her. "What about you?" He asked.

"I'm okay too." She spoke. A faint smile on her lips. It would've been easily missed by anyone else.

Sung-Hoon smiled back a bit. He could see the faint smile on her and he liked it. It was rare to see her smile. Treasuring every moment she did. Turning back to Gwi-Nam as he walked over to him.

Gwi-Nam got back up onto his feet as he let out a chuckle. "I give you that one. You were always quicker when it came to fights but now there can only be one strong one and that will be me. I will become the fear people embody." He spoke. A menacing tone lacing his voice.

"I will not let you.. not now. Not ever. You will never hurt anyone. Not while I'm still alive." Sung-Hoon spoke.

"Let's fix that then, shall we?" Gwi-Nam spoke. A smirk making its way to his lips. Walking over to Sung-Hoon as he acted like he wasn't going to do anything before throwing a punch.

Sung-Hoon felt the punch as he stumbled back. His hand reaching up on instinct as his gaze landed on his shoes.

Min-Jung watched as her brother was punched. Pulling away from Su-Hyeok's hug as she watched. It was hard for her to accept that he could possibly lose to Gwi-Nam.

"Come on Sung-Hoon. Is that all you have?" He taunted. "If you win.. I will leave for good. If you lose against me though.. let's see... Oh, I know. You let me take your sister."

"What?! No!" Su-Hyeok rejected the idea.

"She's not going with you!" Cheong-San spoke up.

"What the hell?!" Gyeong-Su spoke up.

"Like hell she will." Woo-Jin responded.

"We can't let him do that.." Hyo-Ryung mumbled.

"We won't agree to that." Joon-Yeong chimed in.

"He agrees." Min-Jung spoke up for him. "Sung-Hoon! Don't let him win! Show him what you can do." She spoke up. "Don't hold back this time."

Gwi-Nam turned to face her. Walking closer a bit as he smirked a bit more when they moved back except for her. "I would stay there and be quiet. Wouldn't want to take out your vocal cords and feed you to the zombies." He threatened her.

Sung-Hoon glanced up as he grabbed the male's shoulder. Turning him to face him. The moment he saw his face his fist had connected with it. "Don't threaten her when I wasn't done with you." He spoke. Grabbing his collar before getting him up as he threw him against the wall.

Gwi-Nam released a groan. Not having time to compose himself as he soon stood up. Trying to grab someone else as a hostage but he couldn't. All he felt was the feeling of himself falling before hitting the ground.

Nam-Ra huffed a bit under her breath before moving a hand through her hair. Having been the one to send him off the roof. Turning to the others. "That should do it.. right?"

Sung-Hoon listened as he gave a small nod. "For now." He spoke. "He might come crawling back up here again if we're not careful."

Hyo-Ryung let out a small shaky breath she had been holding in. "Are you sure we are safe here?" She asked as she didn't want that to happen to them again.

Sung-Hoon gave a small nod. "We should be fine as long as we stay away from the edges so he doesn't have access to grabbing anyone again."

Su-Hyeok nodded in agreement. He didn't want to have that happen again. He had managed to calm down as he had the one person he was happy to have, in his arms. Soothingly rubbing her back gently.

The group sat in silence as they took their time to gather themselves and calm down from the attack. Sitting around one another once more to keep the tension low after that. The night sky above them as they had survived another day. It was going to be another long night. Whether they would survive another night was uncertain to them.

Having been attacked already and having had to deal with the way that they had no other escape from the roof. They could only prey they were found the next day. They wanted to have a sense of security and peace like before. To escape their dreadful reality. To avoid having to lose anyone else. Especially now that they had a killer hambie running around the school grounds trying to kill them.

They weren't suppose to stuggle to stay alive from flesh eating monsters. It wasn't what they were born to do. They were supposed to be studying and getting into college. It was silent now. Nothing being said and nothing being heard. The only sound coming from down below. The sound of those who were once normal people now turned into creatures that wouldn't understand humanity any longer.

The rooftop was filled with silence after what had happened not so long ago. Luckily, no one had gotten hurt from Gwi-Nam. Not having another person being bit was a relief. Whatever happened next would be unpredictable but they wanted to be ready to face anything. Dying wasn't an option anyone wanted.

Everyone's breathing and heart rates returned to normal. Calming down with the silence around them. Hoping someone, anyone, could see their S.O.S message made by the scrapes they had found laying around the room.
