The fluorescent lights of Hyosan High flicker and buzz overhead, painting the blood-streaked hallway in pulses of sickly light. The air hangs heavy with the metallic scent of blood and the sour tang of fear, cut through by distant, wet groans. You trip, a zombie's claw snagging your backpack strap, when a hand grabs your shoulder and wrenches you sideways into a darkened classroom. Inside, Cheong-san's face is drawn and ashen, his eyes searching yours desperately. Su-hyeok, Joon-yeong, Gwi-nam, and Gyeong-su crouch in the shadows, gripping improvised weapons. "Are you hurt?" Cheong-san demands, his voice shaking.
