Chapter Text
He feels as if he had taken everything for granted. It was just yesterday he walks in the crowded streets of Hongdae with his hands clasped tightly onto Junki’s warm hands. It was just yesterday he could smell the faint cologne on strangers he passed by. It was just yesterday he heard babies cry and the sound of cars honking on the streets. It was all noise, something Yoongi hated for all his life, but today it is something he wished to hear again.
Today, Yoongi woke up with the smell of blood and screams for help. Today, he woke up seeing humans turned into something inhuman, chasing people and eat with them, infecting everyone they had their bite on. He never thought of what kind of character he would be if he were ever in a zombie movie. He thinks it is cliché and how every zombie movie have a very unrealistic ending.
Well then, it is time for Yoongi to find out because this time, he is the main character.
He never thought of himself as someone who can fight, someone who had the guts to swing a bat onto a person’s head. Sure, he sometimes has a few reasons to hate his own kind, but he never had the intentions to kill one of them. But then again right now, they are not exactly human.
They used to be human, though.
He breathes in, holding on to his baseball bat with his life depends on it with Junki on his back, breathing heavily as he holds onto Yoongi’s back. Junki has always been a softie, from what he had observed from dating him for three months. He puts in special care in what he does for him and is very thoughtful with every word he said. He loves hearing his poetic words and how he views the world. Although, those things are very precious to Yoongi but those words would not make zombies bow down to his feet.
The things he had loved about Junki are all in the past right now though.
He gritted his teeth as he could feel the younger pulling the fabric of his hoodie. At first, he thought it was cute having someone larger in size to hide behind his back, wanting Yoongi to protect him, but right now, he couldn’t simply do this alone. He may be one zombie killing machine, brutally hits one zombie after another with a strength he never knew he had but his stamina is slowly depleting. Junki couldn't hurt a fly before this and even he is put into a situation like this, he couldn't smack a zombie with the golf club he is holding. It slowly starts to annoy Yoongi and it made him see the younger in a whole new light.
“Junki, can you please fucking do something!” Yoongi huffed, his hands shaking from smashing too many zombies. He could have sworn he had seen some zombies running away from him, but it is not the right time to do an analysis because they are in Hongdae…. And everyone knows Hongdae is infamous for being overcrowded and they just happened to be in the most infected area.
Junki stared at him, with tears in his eyes. “Yoongi-ah… I’m sorry. It’s not me and it’s not you but… well I’m sort of bitten right now”, he deadpanned, he gestured to his leg. Yoongi widen his eyes as he notices a zombie gnawing at Junki's ankle. “Yoongi baby, please remember that I love you so- “, the soft look in the younger’s eyes have turn vicious, his eyes had turn red and he opens his mouth, ready to devour Yoongi.
“FUCK YOU!” Yoongi screams as he smashes his head with his bat multiple times, both for self defence and annoyance. He no longer moves but Yoongi hits him again, just as a reassurance. He huffs for breath as he lets go of his bat, he looks up to see zombies stared at him. He gulps and closes his eyes, fearing the worse, already imagined they would tear him from limb to limb but… there is nothing.
He opens his eyes to see zombies walking away from him as if they are scared of him. He glances downwards and squirms, nods in understanding in why the zombies would run away from him. He picks up his bat and looks around.
Other than the zombies, he is the only lone survivor on the streets of Hongdae. He had always liked being alone but that was by choice, this however was inevitable.
His clothes smell of blood and his sleeves of his hoodie are soaked. His nose crinkles in disgust at the sight. He couldn’t possibly go on another round of zombie killing spree while wearing a dreadful piece of clothing! Plus, he is not comfortable if what he is wearing doesn't smell good. He sighs. It costs a lot of money to even purchase this hoodie. Well, he doesn't exactly use his money. Junki is the one who bought it for him yesterday before this whole fiasco happened.
Then, it finally hit him.
He looks around, eyes sparkling at the sight. There is no one in authority that could stop him, no one who will chase him down for doing something illegal. Plus, he is in Hongdae, one of the biggest shopping districts in the country.
He squeals in delight, seeing the top brand names stores from left to right. He never is the shopping type of guy but since the chance is right in front of his eyes…
It doesn’t hurt, right?
