The sound of the whistle signaled the end of the floorball practice inside the gym. "Great job everyone! Be careful on your way home" exclaimed by the coach making the students bow as he leaves to exit the room.

"Hey Yuna, let's grab some teokbokki on our way home." One of the students stated to their floorball ace but the latter frowned indicating that she can't come. "I would love to, but I have plans with Ryujin today" gesturing an apology to them. She decided to go the bathroom to wash up before meeting her council president.

Upon finishing on washing up and changing back to her school uniform, to her surprise, she saw one of her floorball members which is also a close friend of hers being unconscious on the floor. With Yuna's initial reaction of dropping to her knees beside the girl, she tried to wake up the said member. " Arin (oh my girl) Are you okay? I told you to stop that stupid diet and eat healthy" Yuna scolded knowing that her co-athlete always does extreme diets.

Thankfully, the girl slowly opened her eyes but still looking drowsy. "I-I don't feel well, I don't know what gotten into me." Yuna pulled Arin up making her cling on Yuna weakly, "Let's go to the nurse office" the floorball ace stated, carefully assisting her friend to walk. But the moment Yuna opened the door, she was taken aback on what she witnessed. With her jaw dropping and eyes widening on the scene, she almost forgot to breathe.

Two of what seems to be members of the same club as hers, were consuming and devouring something on the center of the gymnasium. Yuna tried to squint her eyes to possibly clearly see what's on the floor, and there, Yuna felt the horror crawling her over skin.


A DEAD BODY! THERE EATING FLESH FROM A DEAD BODY?!


Yuna snapped herself back and carefully closed the door. "Yuna? What is it?" Arin asked in a fragile voice. The floorball player was quick to think of something as an answer. "You know what? I'll just get someone to help us" which agreed by her sick friend. Yuna made Arin sit comfortably on the far end of the washroom. She completely knew that at this moment, something bizarre is happening. She expected that one day something might happen, but she never knew it was something like this.

Yuna stood infront of the door and in a split second, her eyes changes to something dark and fierce adding to her serious face which was far from her normal jolly structure. The floorball player dragged her floorball stick as she walks towards those beings which gradually took notice of her. They were bloody and insanely barbarous in every movement but surprisingly the young floorball player was not swayed in anyway possible. It was like she was completely a different person a while ago.

Those things ran towards her as if they were hungry to eat her up but Yuna, instead of stepping back, she took a step forward and run to their direction. Yuna swung her metal floorball stick on the face of her offenders but the two just stopped only for a split second due to the force of the swing but abruptly resumed on attacking her.

Yuna was in disbelief but was quick to react and hit the knees of both offenders, it was surprisingly a fast-consecutive and powerful strike from a student like Yuna. As if she was a professional on doing such thing. Fortunately, she was able to hit the right spots making both dropped to the floor but adding to her bewilderment, both didn't flinch and tried to crawl just to reach her.

"What the heck!" uttering from the unbelievable scene she's seeing. "But I'm smarter" she added pulling her composure back. Letting out a sigh, she gripped her floorball stick with both hands and forcefully swung it to the infecteds' head. Hitting both heads twice as hard as she can until blood splatter all over the place. Yuna breathed heavily from her actions after overcoming such event with eyes still fixated on the heads she smashed.

Realizing that she needed to take Arin out of there, Yuna was about to turn back to the washroom when her eyes caught a brief movement from the dead body that was consumed by the infecteds. "So, what now? They rise from the dead or something?" stated in frustration, the floorball player's eyes was still locked on the slowly standing up body. Momentarily looking away while biting her lower lip, Yuna pulled her floorball stick up and strike one heavy blow to the head of the undead splashing blood as it dropped back down to the floor.

"I'm so thankful that I bought a metal floorball stick than a plastic one." She exclaimed but was slightly rattled when she heard a door open. Instantly turning her head from the direction, it confirmed that it was from the washroom and there in front was a figure unsteadily standing.

"A..rin? Are you..." Noticing Arin's small weird movements, Yuna stopped from asking her friend's condition. She had a bad feeling about it. Arin was standing with her head down while making incomprehensible sound and was moving little by little like she was possessed or something alike until Yuna heard a faint word from her friend.



"Yu...na...ack!urk!"



Yuna froze. It felt like everything stopped. She barely felt her body with her stick almost slip from her grip. For the first time in her life, she felt broken seeing her friend call her on her last breath. She knew what would happen next, but the floorball player remained immobile from her spot with eyes darted at her friend who finally turned to one of those things and was about to attack her.
