Jimin had just finished listening to the zombie's story, already feeling sympathy for the other.

"T-thats... h-how... e-every... t-thing... s-start-ed..." The zombie said.

By the time it was done telling it's backstory, it was already dark out. Most other's lights already out.

"Do you... think you could... take us there? I mean, now that you've told me more about everything? Your whole background and everything?" Jimin had asked cautiously, knowing this was a touchy subject.

Jimin then glanced back at the zombie, seeing its eyes were closed.

"Shoot..." Jimin whispered, letting it rest.

He knew that he and Tae would definitely have to take the zombie to where he got bit, see if it could bring back anymore memories or information about the plant that blew up.

Rolling over on his right side, he closed his eyes, mind pondering on about the many cautions they'd be taking while venturing out.

Hopefully they didn't run into Them, the higher ups of their little sanctuary .

That would put them in a bunch of trouble, which wasn't wanted.

....

Morning came, and knowing Jimin, worrying or stressing over the little journey they'd be taking not too long from now, he rubbed his head, attempting to rub away the headache he thought he was developing.

Eyes fluttering open from the sunlight beaming through the window, he yawned, slitghlt stretching since he was mostly done growing now.

He knew he had to get up and talk to Tae about the adventure out, and the avoiding of Them, which he really hoped wouldn't happen, he just really didn't want to leave his bed. His nice warm- no, hot- bed.

Why was it so hot?

Lifting up his shirt a little in attempt to cool down, he glanced to his left, and he swears to god, his heart almost jumped out of his chest.

He forgot the zombie was in bed eith him, staring at him.

"How... how long have you been awake?" Jimin decided to ask. He genuinely was curious, as the zombie didn't look tired one bit.

The zombie, upon the question, just shook its head side to side, signalling that it had not slept, but instead, was awake the whole night.

"Ok. Well... we've got to get up, go tell Tae what you told me so he knows as well. We've also got to get up so we can prepare for our little outing later." Jimin said, sitting up and uncovering the warmth that were his blankets entangled around his legs.

Upon standing up, Jimin had made towards his dresser, broken and worn down, but a dresser nonetheless.

Reaching it, he pulled out a cream colored shirt, denim jacket and dark pants along with some socks to go with his grey shoes.

Once he'd reached the hem of his previous shirt, he pulled it up and over his head before replacing it with the cream colored on.

"G-goo-d..." The zombie muffled, gazing at Jimin's torso.

"O-oh. Yeah? It looks good?" Jimin questioned, looking the zombie in his eyes, flustered at the compliment he received.

A grunt of positivity was all Jimin heard before he heard knocking on his door.

Making his way to the door, he opened it, revealing a slightly shaken Tae, eyes somewhat wide.

"We have to go, now." Tae said. Urging Jimin to hurry up, though he had no idea why.

"Wait, what's going on?" Jimin asked, still slightly groggy from sleep, rubbing sleep out of his newly opened eyes.

"Just hurry and get dressed. We've got to leave. Like now." Tae replied, shaken up at the news he got earlier, or rather, eavesdropped on.

Closing the door off from Tae's weary gaze, heading off to the room.

Why was Tae so shaken up? Did They know something, or did Tae figure something out?

Only the next few minutes would tell.
