BTS: Zombie Struggles

20. Reaching the Train

Miyoung POV:

As Yugyeom and I led the way, we walked along the gravel road, getting further from the camp. We could still hear the distant screams and the occasional gun fire. Mark and Minji ran in the opposite direction from us and into the tall trees, quite a few of the zombies following after them.

I found out a few minutes ago that these boys were members of a famous boyband called BTS and were on break for the school finals. Taehyung's brothers were all part of famous boybands too. Daehyun was a member of B.A.P. Baekhyun, Chanyeol and Sehun were members of EXO along with their friends. It was really amazing to here it. I knew Suho was gone alot before all this but to be honest I never knew he was part of EXO too.

By now the only sound we could hear was the wind and the sound of our foot steps on the gravel. But before we could take 2 more steps, Suga stopped us. "Don't move and don't breathe," Jimin looked at him weirdly,"If we don't breathe then we'll die." Suga looked at him with a poker face,"Your point exactly?" Jimin looked at him in bewilderment.

"Just listen," we did as Suga said and listened to the sounds around us. When we heard nothing, Suga shrugged and we kept walking but I could tell Suga was still listening to our surroundings carefully and when I looked back again, I saw Jin doing the same. We walked for another few good minutes before Jin muttered something that made all of us stop dead in our tracks, "Why does it sound like there are more footsteps than just ours?"

We turned around and what we saw almost made me faint and I heard JHope  whimper. Right in front of us were zombies, way too many to count. Yugyeom motioned for me to quietly circle my way around our scared friends one way while he goes the other, we met up in front of Jungkook and Rapmon.

"Okay when I get to 3," Yugyeom started,"every one run," I finished. The others nodded and got ready. Yugyeom glanced at me before he started to count down. "3..2..1" "RUN!!!!" I shouted and we all took off, me and Yugyeom holding up the rear while Daehyun and Jin holding up the front.

Jungkook started speeding up the second he heard the growls. "Jungkook! We can't all run as fast as you!" Jimin yelled after him. Jungkook laughed and continued speeding up. After running so much we managed to lose the horde of zombies.

Jennie and Lisa have been talking quietly to each other since we left the camp and it was worrying me so I decided to speak up. "Jennie, Lisa, whats going on?", They looked at each other before answering. "You sure Daegu is safe?" Lisa asked. I sighed. "Yugyeom and I don't know for sure but it wouldn't hurt to find out when we get there," I replied. They nodded and we continued walking.

"So how exactly do we get to Daegu?" Baekhyun asked while poking Daehyun in the back and had Taehyung in a headlock. "Train," Yugyeom answered him, we were leading the group again. The others nodded. In the distance I could see the trains and motioned for everyone to pick up the pace, within a few more minutes, we reached the trains.

"Okay, everyone split up in partners, we need to check each train to see if any are safe," Yugyeom informed. We nodded. The partners were,
1-Jennie and Jimin
2-Janji and Taehyung
3-Lisa and Jungkook
3-Suga and JHope
4- Jin and Rapmonster
5-Daehyun and Baekhyun
6- me and Yugyeom

Yugyeom and I checked the train in front of us. Empty. I checked the next train but screamed when a zombie's face popped out in the window. I looked over at my brother who was checking the third train. He looked back at me and shook his head. I sighed. "So the middle one is safe, let's get it started," I said as I grabbed the trains door handle and opened it. Right as it opened, a zombie tackled me to the ground.

I wedged my left arm under it's chin to try and keep it from biting me as I frantically moved my right arm along the ground, feeling for anything that could help me. Yugyeom ran towards me to help, "No! Don't worry about me just go and start the train!" I shouted at him and he nodded, jumping on to the train and disappeared. The zombie started trying to grab for my arms, I head butted it and shoved it off me far enough so that I could grab a hold of something to kill it with.

I spotted a wrench a good arms length away and made a move for it as the zombie scrambled to it's feet. I grabbed it and rolled over onto my back and swung just in time as it lunged at me again. The wrench connected with the side of it's head and it fell limp next to me. As I got up the others were back and gathering around me and the dead zombie at my feet.

"Did we miss something?" Daehyun asked, pointing at the dead zombie. I smiled. "Someone wanted to greet me and it didn't end well," I simply replied, "also Yugyeom is on this train getting it to start so all aboard the chu chu train people!" I said while ushering them onto it. And we were off.

This train will take us to Daegu.
Will it be a safe trip?
Will Daegu really be infection free when we get there?
Will we make it?

"I hope Daegu is truly infection free," Jin muttered loud enough for all of us to hear. "It's gotta be," Janji nodded. Rapmonster looked at his members who were all looking at him. "Daegu is our only hope..." He said and patted Jungkook's shoulder and gave reassuring smiles to the rest of his members.

I smiled at the scene. These boys had so much hope that could be destroyed in an instant if Suho's information about Daegu turned out to be wrong. Jennie and Lisa are the last remaining of their family and are holding on to the fact that they only have each other now. Daehyun lost his band members to the apocalypse and so did Baekhyun, Yugyeom and I lost our brothers. But I'm sure Yugyeom was prepared for the possibility of us losing our brothers. Our father told us when we were young, that the apocalypse would happen and that when it did, we were to find survivors and get them to a safe place no matter the costs. No matter the sacrifices.

And here we are, getting a group of survivors to a safe destination. What will we do when we part ways with them? Yugyeom said before that we would join them but he lied. We can't join them, our soul purpose is to help survivors. And that's what we'll do.

"Miyoung you good? You are spacing out," Baekhyun said while placing a hand on my shoulder. "I'm fine don't worry," I smiled and he nodded, walking back to his seat in between Daehyun and Taehyung. I got up and went over to the control room/ cockpit (idk) and leaned over Yugyeom's shoulder. "How much longer before we reach Daegu?" I asked. He glanced at me then back to the tracks. " Few more hours...we need to figure out where we head next after we get them to Daegu," Yugyeom spoke up after a few minutes. I nodded and thought about places. " We could go to Busan," I suggested. "Busan?" Yugyeom questioned. I nodded. " I'm sure there are a few survivors in Busan who are in need of help," I said as i draped my arm over his shoulder. He nodded slowly as he thought about it. "Okay, Busan it is!" He chorused.

A few more hours and they'll be safe...
