I woke up around 5:00 in the morning. I sat up and rubbed my eyes. I looked around but I could only see Holly, who was snuggled into my lap. I set Holly to the side and stood up. I went to the side of the roof looking down to the ground.

I saw Yoongi facing the other building just standing there. "Yoongi!" I called out, trying not to be to loud. He turned his head towards me, before fiddling with his pants. He turned around and hurried up the stairwell. "What where you doing?" He made a gesture toward his privet area and I cringed.

"Did you really piss on the side of that building?" I looked at him in disgust. "What?! No one was watching! That was until you woke up." I shook my head at him before walking over to our stuff tossing him his bag, swinging mine over my shoulder.

He picked up Holly and set her in nicely, zipping it but leaving a crack for her to breathe.

We made our way down the stairwell. Yoongi jumped over the railing before we where half way down. I bent over the railing my eyes wide. "Do you have a death with or something?" He stood up straight looking up to me. "You should try it."

"No." I continued down the stairs making my way to the bottom. When I walked by him he grabbed my hand. "You wimp." "I am not a wimp." I stopped walking and faced his crossing my arms.

He smiled at me bending down to my height. I smacked him in the head and he stood up straight.

We continued walking for a few more hours before we decided to take a break. He sat on the curb in the road and wiped some sweat off his face. "I suggest we continue north until we reach the river. Then we end up in Thailand which is pretty sure there's a camp there we could stay at for a while. I heard some guys talking about it."

There was a camp in Thailand that people could go a restock their bullets and get fresh water, food and a place to sleep. There where camps all around the world but the closest one near us was in Thailand.

"Ok so right now where in China," I said pacing back and forth trying to picture a map in my head. "We would need to either go though Myanmar or we could travel through Vietnam and Cambodia and then to Thailand."

Yoongi took a paper out of his pocket. He unfolded it and looked at it.

It was a map he had drawn himself. It showed all of east Asia and Europe with the names of countries written on it. It had circles marked on it where different camps are located. "I think going through Vietnam and Cambodia would be quicker because then we would end up around south-east Thailand and the camp is more south than north." I nodded and bent down beside him, our faces almost touching. I looked at his hand drawn map before standing straight again. "Ok then we should get going" I said. He just nodded and stood up, putting his map back in his pocket.

We walked a few miles before Yoongi started up a conversation. "So where you come from?" He asked looking at my side profile. "Russia. What about you?"

"I'm from South Korea." I nodded. "Yeah I traveled through Mongolia to get here. Been here for about 4 months now."

"Oh. I had to get through North Korea to get here."

I raised my eye brows. "Fun." I said sarcastically. He laughed and put his hand over his mouth. "I know right! Everyone wants to go to North Korea!" He said equally as sarcastic as me. We both laughed and continued on our journey.

It got late and the sun began to set. We decided we weren't gonna stop and spend the night because there wasn't really anywhere safe to sleep and it would just be waisting time because we slept last night.

My stomach started to grumble a little bit and Yoongi seemed to notice. "Are you hungry? I think I have like half a granola bar if you want some."

I felt bad taking his food. Food was a very big problem during this time because food is a mandatory thing and there wasn't much of it.

"No! I don't want any! Thank you though." I said putting my hands up. He just nodded and looked straight ahead. We where walking and suddenly Yoongi stopped. I stopped and looked at him questionably. "What is it?" I asked looking around. Yoongi out his finger up to his mouth and made a 'shhh' noise.

I sniffed the air to try and see if there was a stench. We heard shuffling of feet from somewhere around us. I grabbed onto Yoongi's arm. I don't know why I did I was just scared. Yoongi didn't push me off but just continued to look around. We stood there for a few minutes before we started to walk again, but this time very consciously.

Yoongi silently and slowly grabbed onto his gun, that was in the side pocket of his backpack. I did the same. I heard something move behind us. I quickly turned around and pointed my gun in the direction I was facing.

I was shocked at what I saw though. An army of zombies had been following us. About 30 maybe. I screamed and Yoongi turned around. I started shooting my gun and hit 2 in the neck. They fell to the ground.

Yoongi shot a couple before he grabbed my hand and started running. I was even more shocked at what Yoongi was doing. Why was he dragging my with him? In a situation like this you aren't supposed to save anyone but yourself.

We ran and ran until we both couldn't anymore. The zombies where still following us and they where close. "God damnit!" Yoongi shouted and shot at them. Yoongi pushed me behind him and continued to shoot. Soon he tried to shoot again but all there was, was a clicking sound coming from the gun. He tried to shoot a few more times when he through the gun in the ground.

I stepped to the side and starred shoot at them too. Now there were only a few left and I figured we could out run them and hide.

I started running. Not giving Yoongi a signal or anything I heard footsteps running behind me and I knew Yoongi was following. I looked back and just saw Yoongi running behind me. I didn't see any more zombies. We kept running and running until I finally collapsed all the ground. I rolled on back back a breathed heavily. Yoongi stood in front of me with his hands on his hips looking around anxiously. After he inspected the area he fell down next to me on the ground.

We didn't say anything to each other, we just listened to each other's breathing.

We laid there for a while.

I sat up and looked around. I looked over to Yoongi who looked like he was asleep. I tapped him in the shoulder. "Yoongi. We gotta go." I said and shaked his shoulder. He opened his eyes and sat up. Yoongi grabbed his bag and opened it. Holly's head popped out and licked him on the nose. It was so cute. He took his dog out and set it in my lap. He rummaged through his backpack to make sure everything was there. "I lost my gun back there. How many more bullets do you have?

I opened my gun to see 4 more bullets sitting in their places. I opened my book bag, looking for the bag I usually kept my other bullets in. I took the bag out of my backpack to find it empty. "4" I said in a monotone.
