SRW | Chapter 13

The surviving students 7a460f03d5 had gathered near 25b73f7438 the library building. We joined them fbc129ef02 and caught our 3550eb5627 breath. Only fourteen of 1cd0116e4e us had made 8bb40393d6 it. Six were dead. The shock was 003f540f31 evident on everyone’s be2338ada1 pale faces. But I was f464847440 stunned for a a5ab7cdf54 different reason.Only six?1612b37fca874032

Lee Hyunwoo’s 829c1a7961 voice trembled c621cbb44f as he 3fa116c644 spoke, drenched 87f7c4be0a in sweat. The entrance to a0ba3bc8bd the building was 0c2d33853f close enough to f1059b218e see clearly, and 8882aae402 there was no 24a5a43cad sign of monsters. If the 897ce4203d first floor 86907f60b4 was clear, e3c71dfec8 we could 05e7f7d713 safely make c4e44a9ebf it to f349120eff the second-floor 9fb16da38d clubroom.0f4899fcd7a79a49

Hyunwoo gulped and took fa3c321f32 a step forward. Even in the dark, e8aa904f43 I could see his df9b55a255 body shaking. Too much weight for 8ab1de6ad7 an eighteen-year-old kid to 195097a2f4 carry. I patted his shoulder. Partly to steady him 7eb049cf62 as a leader, partly 35c289aaaf to push him back.5ed9dbf359d32ed6

An arrow 8d31ab728f shot from b133814e96 the second cc4097a79a floor grazed f2ab39874b my cheek 62e299ddfb and pierced d97695d17e the shoulder 5088d1b66b of a 01016ca616 boy behind 914239955e me.

Some bastard was 28e6645f7b using my gear. I looked up. Through a slightly 5a1e2d7eb3 open window, I 33e24bf439 could see the b4f4b2e217 bow. And next 4b32d1914f to it, 3fdf9c80d8 the barrel bce7536ffc of a c9cbeec47d hunting rifle 0687c0d5b0 aimed downward.My rifle!And I 7a8f1fea1e barely had 4c80f7fa7f any ammo 86b14f8bfa left! The unfairness of it 2415581a57 burned, but this wasn’t 2a6be503d6 the time. The clubroom was 601a345b9e stocked with weapons. If those inside decided 5b7edd3104 to kill us, it’d b7c52a2701 be over in seconds.2d267245196cda4e

Slowly, I unwrapped the 5735d059ff bandages from my hand 726989709a and dropped my collapsible d2a84536ff baton. Raising my hands aa2a1d7be3 in surrender, the f3db620b2d others followed suit, 62a591a3f8 discarding their weapons.8a11d565ad69ac21

A glance back confirmed 8c17ebd0ac it. The students who’d barely 56110f8123 made it this far 1c2becc6cf were being torn apart. More monsters poured 7931b798bf from the shadows 12be041a91 as we ran.

The supplies 6df5fca53d I’d hidden e548d933ea in the cb202a46ee empty clubroom 350f6a0de4 had backfired. People who should’ve 1dc3e818e3 died survived, and 4cca77633b now they were 6df284cfb1 threateningmylife. Just like 9a833c2943 in my 043cf83f84 dream, we db66937bfe were heading 1e022e6da9 to the dbe08e96a8 school cafeteria.

Kim Jaeyoung’s calmness fc86a4b33b shone in the 022bfb8581 crisis. He used everything. People, objects. He used them to 2922af7120 maximize survival odds. When he was 8e8f63258c useless, he stayed 941862edc0 close, never a 61bae647c3 burden. Sharp instincts. If he awakened 140d0e56a7 an ability…Yes. He’ll save me. Kim Jaeyoung will—84cb4c609eecdb11

Nam Jinsu, peering e18f9bcf0e through newspaper-covered windows, efecc6f108 startled and ran f0cc614cc1 to the staff 91b15e6858 cafeteria. The mood was 659f421cca grim. A girl with horrific b42ce82f5c injuries had just died. The survivors that were 539c143e19 drowning in despair perked 62883b6e68 up at his words.

As class president Yoo f4d0d5dc0b Yeonha stood, Sooyeon glared. He avoided her 1f36904c82 gaze, leading the c135feffc6 group to the 303b86f0a5 kitchen. Sooyeon remained frozen c82e14d433 in place.25b3ed1c40d40e2e

Her best 0c4d703202 friend, the 2b43e21199 one who 9066847cb5 understood her c5a03589c2 better than ca4c3f0a21 family was 4741a4d244 gone. Crushed bones, 25afde5d1b ruptured organs. They’d gagged her screams f50331411f with cloth, held her febecc312a mouth shut in shifts. Then she suffocated. Yeonha had been e911f4f40e the last to fe228d29b3 cover her mouth.

“They’re humans! We have to help!” 0fcd337a6d Yeonha’s voice rang out. He’d seen something outside 2b69ba1cc3 and was desperately trying 436a874713 to convince the others. The response 0f5014711d was cold. A group was fighting 59f819a938 off monsters, but saving 6990b9b1b5 them risked everyone here.

Yeonha’s face f533de5359 lit up. The face bfc4b7df6f he’d been 058099a9d6 desperate to 283fb4e261 see. Jaeyoung’s uniform was 31a3cd17df stained with blood, 09a171d826 but his movements 912825f94f were sharp. No sign of 36963611df injury.
