They're Zombies, We're Survivors [EXO FANFIC]

Chapter 14 It was now 6:00 pm and the two cars were parked behind the building that Sehun had directed them to. On the way they had stopped by the town to refill the car with gas and grab a few more bites of food from the grocery store. Tao had been very excited and was wriggling in his car seat the first thirty minutes of the ride but ended up falling asleep next to Chen. Chen was afraid that the boy would turn into a zombie but Sehun tapped Tao's forehead for any sign of heating and shook his head saying that he would only turn when his temperature rose abnormally.

The first car was driven by Luhan and inside was Kyungsoo, Kai and Kris. The second car had Baekyoung on the wheel, Sehun on the passenger seat, and Chen and Tao at the back seat. Worse of all, they did not have a plan and that worried Baekyoung even more. Now that they were parked in the shadows of the construction site, Baekyoung was checking whether the walkie talkie worked.

Pat.

Baekyoung looked up to see Luhan tapping against the glass from outside and he unlocked the doors, Luhan getting in the backseat of the car. The fairy eyed boy did not have an inch of nervousness written on his face and Baekyoung thought that it must be because he did this so many times before. Luhan had the other walkie talkie and tied it to his belt. 

The other would be with Sehun who would stay in the car and give him directions on where to go and what to do.

"How are you getting in?" Baekyoung asked Luhan who wore a pair of gloves that Baekyoung had never seen him wear before. Luhan pointed at the back wall that both of them could see. Above the trashcan was an opening that was covered by metal bars. If Luhan slipped through it and crawled, he would already be in their ventilation system.

"How are you going to open it, Hyung?" Sehun looked at Luhan who seemed taken aback by Sehun calling him "Hyung" and he raised a paper clip that he twisted around to make it look like a screwdriver.

"I'll get a key and open the door, Kai will go in and both of us will search." Luhan told the whole car what they had talked about in the other car. Sehun frowned.

"Two won't be enough." The maknae told Luhan who waved a hand back at him. Luhan hiked up his shoes and tightened the strings, making a check around his body to make sure that the silencer was still with him. Kris told him to take it with him in case and Luhan agreed- he hated to think that he would have to shoot someone but he bet that he would do it for the sake of his safety.

"I'm going." Luhan told the others and got off the car. Baekyoung saw him walk to the other car just to tell him that he was going in and he could not help but feel thankful for this set of people who were willing to risk their lives just to help his younger brother. 

The whole car watched Luhan walk to the back wall and climb onto the trashcan.

"Will he be able to open it?" Chen asked aloud, his eyes focused on the Luhan whose fingers were seen twisting the clip over and over again.

"He'll open it in less than a minute." Sehun answered Chen, his eyes also on his hyung. As Sehun had stated, in less than a minute, Luhan could be seen throwing a piece of metal on the ground just to expose an opening on the white wall. Everyone turned to look at Sehun curiously on how he knew that.

"Did you know Luhan from before?" Baekyoung's question was directed to Sehun and he looked through the front view mirror just to see the boy look flustered. Sehun licked his lips and cleared his throat before giving a vague response.
