Chapter 10 (Last chapter of season 1)

Title: The Brink of Despair
Chapter 10: Through the Darkness
Y/N’s POV
The piercing wail of the fire alarm echoed through Green Home, filling the building with an almost unbearable noise. My heart raced as we crouched in the cramped storage room, the sound vibrating through the walls and making it difficult to think straight.
Hyun-su was beside me, his hand tightly clasping mine. I could feel his pulse beating rapidly, his breath coming in short, uneven bursts. We were both caught in the chaotic aftermath of our plan to distract the soldiers, but the tension was almost too much to bear.
“We need to stay hidden until the soldiers move away,” Hyun-su said, his voice strained but determined. He glanced at me, his eyes reflecting a mix of anxiety and resolve. “If they find us now…”
“They won’t,” I said firmly, trying to inject some calm into the situation. “We’ve come this far. We just need to stay put and wait.”
Hyun-su nodded, though I could see the fear in his eyes. The fire alarm was designed to create chaos, and it was working all too well. The building was in disarray, and the soldiers’ shouts and hurried footsteps were a constant reminder of the danger we faced.
We sat in the darkness, the blaring siren creating an almost surreal atmosphere. The room was filled with old furniture and dusty boxes, the dim light from a flickering bulb casting eerie shadows on the walls. The noise was almost deafening, but it was a small comfort knowing that it was drawing attention away from us.
I glanced at Hyun-su, noticing how the stress was taking a toll on him. His face was pale, and his hands were trembling slightly. I reached out and touched his arm, trying to offer some reassurance.
“Hyun-su, we’re going to make it through this,” I said softly. “We just have to stay strong a little longer.”
He looked at me, his eyes reflecting a mixture of gratitude and fear. “I don’t know how much longer I can keep this up, Y/N. The pressure… it’s overwhelming.”
I squeezed his hand, my heart aching at the sight of his distress. “You’re stronger than you think. We’re in this together. We’ll find a way out.”
As the minutes dragged on, the sound of the fire alarm seemed to blend with the distant voices of the soldiers. I tried to listen for any signs of movement, but the noise was almost too loud to discern anything clearly. The chaos outside was a constant reminder of how precarious our situation was.
Finally, the noise of the alarm began to subside, replaced by a tense silence. The soldiers must have been moving on to investigate other parts of the building. I could hear their muffled voices growing fainter as they moved away from our location.
Hyun-su and I exchanged a look, both of us recognizing that this was our chance to make a move. We had to take advantage of the distraction while we could.
“Let’s go,” Hyun-su said, his voice filled with a renewed sense of purpose. “We need to find a safer place.”
We carefully made our way out of the storage room, the building still echoing with the distant sounds of the soldiers’ search. The hallway was dimly lit, the occasional flicker of a broken light casting unsettling shadows on the walls.
As we moved through the corridors, I could feel the adrenaline still coursing through my veins. Every creak of the floorboards and every distant sound made me jump, but Hyun-su’s steady presence beside me helped keep me grounded.
We reached the stairwell, moving quickly but cautiously. The stairs were narrow and steep, and I could feel the tension in Hyun-su’s shoulders as he led the way. We had to be careful not to make any noise that could attract attention.
As we reached the rooftop access door, Hyun-su paused, his hand resting on the doorknob. He glanced at me, his expression serious. “We need to be extra cautious up here. If the soldiers see us…”
“We’ll be ready,” I said, trying to offer him some reassurance. “We’ll find a way to stay hidden.”
Hyun-su nodded, his hand gripping the doorknob as he slowly pushed the door open. The rooftop was dark and exposed, the city lights below casting a faint glow over the ruins. The air was cold, and the wind whipped around us, carrying with it the sounds of distant sirens and the occasional explosion.
We stepped onto the rooftop, our footsteps muffled by the gravel underfoot. I glanced around, trying to get a sense of the situation. The soldiers were still moving through the building, their flashlights cutting through the darkness below.
Hyun-su and I moved to the edge of the rooftop, staying as low as possible to avoid being seen. We could see the soldiers searching the building, their flashlights moving methodically from room to room.
“We need to create another diversion,” Hyun-su said, his voice low and urgent. “Something that will draw their attention away from us.”
I nodded, my mind racing as I tried to come up with a plan. “What if we use some of the debris on the rooftop? We could create a distraction by making a loud noise.”
Hyun-su’s eyes lit up with the idea. “That might work. Let’s find some materials.”
We began to gather various items from the rooftop—old metal sheets, broken pipes, and anything else that could be used to create a loud noise. We arranged the debris in a makeshift pile, positioning it near the edge of the building where it would be visible from below.
Once we had everything set up, Hyun-su pulled out a lighter and set fire to the pile. The flames quickly spread, sending up a plume of thick black smoke that rose into the night sky. The sight of the fire and smoke would certainly attract attention.
The soldiers below reacted immediately, their shouts growing louder as they turned their attention to the new threat. The fire alarm was still blaring in the distance, adding to the confusion.
Hyun-su and I took advantage of the distraction, quickly moving away from the edge of the rooftop and heading back inside the building. We made our way to a safer location, the chaos outside giving us the cover we needed to avoid detection.
As we reached a small, secluded room on a lower floor, we paused to catch our breath. The noise of the fire and the soldiers’ shouts was still audible, but we were out of immediate danger.
“We did it,” I said, my voice trembling with exhaustion. “We managed to create a diversion.”
Hyun-su nodded, his face still pale but showing a hint of relief. “Yeah. But we need to keep moving. We don’t know how long the distraction will last.”
We continued to move through the building, staying as quiet as possible and avoiding any areas that might still be under inspection. The building was eerily quiet now, the sounds of the soldiers and the fire alarm fading into the background.
As we made our way through the darkened corridors, I could sense the exhaustion and stress in Hyun-su. He was pushing himself to the limit, trying to keep us both safe despite the overwhelming odds.
“We’ll find a way out,” I said, trying to offer him some reassurance. “We’re close. We just need to stay focused.”
Hyun-su gave me a grateful look, his eyes reflecting the determination that had been guiding him through this nightmare. “Thank you, Y/N. For everything.”
We continued to navigate the building, our goal clear—find a way out and ensure our safety. The challenges we faced were immense, but we were determined to overcome them together.
Cha Hyun-su’s POV
Navigating through Green Home was like walking through a maze of shadows and danger. The fire alarm and the distraction we created had given us a brief respite, but we couldn’t afford to let our guard down. The soldiers were still out there, and their search could resume at any moment.
Y/N’s presence was a constant source of strength. She was always there, providing support and encouragement even in the darkest moments. I knew that without her, I wouldn’t have been able to keep going. Her belief in us, in me, was what kept me moving forward.
As we made our way through the building, I could see the exhaustion etched on Y/N’s face. She was tired, scared, and yet she remained resolute. It was a testament to her strength and determination, qualities that had always impressed me.
“We need to get to the basement,” I said, trying to keep my voice steady. “There might be a way out through the underground tunnels.”
Y/N nodded, her expression serious. “Lead the way.”
We headed down to the basement, our footsteps echoing in the dimly lit stairwell. The tension was palpable, each step bringing us closer to our goal but also increasing the risk of discovery.
As we reached the basement, I noticed a flickering light coming from one of the storage rooms. We approached cautiously, peering inside to see if it was safe.
The room was empty, the only light coming from a malfunctioning fluorescent bulb overhead. We moved inside, taking a moment to catch our breath and assess our situation.
“There should be an access point to the tunnels somewhere in this area,” I said, scanning the room for any signs of an exit.
Y/N began to search through the clutter, her hands moving quickly as she examined old equipment and discarded items. “I’ll look for it,” she said, determination in her voice.
I
watched her work, my heart swelling with admiration. Despite everything we had been through, she was still focused and determined. It was a reminder of why I had to keep fighting, why I had to protect her.
Finally, Y/N found what we were looking for—a hidden panel in the wall that led to the tunnels. She managed to pry it open, revealing a narrow passageway leading underground.
“We found it,” she said, her voice filled with relief.
I nodded, my own sense of relief mingled with the anticipation of what lay ahead. “Let’s go. This might be our best chance to get out of here.”
We made our way down the tunnel, the passageway narrow and dimly lit. The air was musty, and the walls were damp, but it was a welcome change from the chaos of the building above.
As we moved through the tunnels, I couldn’t help but reflect on everything that had happened. The danger, the fear, and the uncertainty had been overwhelming, but through it all, Y/N had been by my side. Her strength and courage had given me hope, and it was that hope that kept me going.
The tunnel eventually led us to a small access point outside the building. We emerged into the cool night air, the sight of the city lights a stark contrast to the darkness we had left behind.
Y/N and I stood together, looking out at the city. The danger wasn’t over, but we had made it through the worst of it. We had survived, and that was something to be grateful for.
“We did it,” Y/N said, her voice filled with quiet triumph. “We made it out.”
I looked at her, my heart full of gratitude and affection. “Yeah. We did.”
We stood there for a moment, taking in the view and savoring the sense of freedom. Despite the challenges we had faced, we had made it through together. It was a testament to our strength and resilience.
As we began to make our way to safety, I knew that the road ahead would still be difficult. But with Y/N by my side, I felt confident that we could face whatever came our way.
We had survived the nightmare that was Green Home, and we had done it together. And as we moved forward into the unknown, I knew that our bond was stronger than ever.

Chapter 9

Title: At the Edge of the Abyss
Chapter 9: Unbreakable Bonds
Y/N’s POV
The atmosphere in Green Home was thick with dread. After Jae-heon’s announcement about the soldiers and our decision to hide Hyun-su, everyone was on edge. The plan was risky, but it was our only option. No one knew exactly when the soldiers would arrive, but it felt like the clock was ticking.
Hyun-su had been quiet since the meeting. He wasn’t the type to show his emotions openly, but I could see the fear and doubt lingering behind his eyes. He was carrying the weight of everything—his own transformation, the survival of everyone in the building, and now, the looming threat of the soldiers.
I wasn’t going to let him face this alone.
As the night fell, I found him on the rooftop, leaning against the railing and staring out at the wrecked city below. His shoulders were tense, his hands clenched into fists as if he was trying to hold onto the last bits of his humanity.
“Hyun-su,” I said softly as I approached, careful not to startle him.
He glanced at me, a tired smile tugging at his lips. “Can’t sleep?”
I shook my head. “Not with everything going on.”
He nodded, his gaze drifting back to the horizon. “Me neither.”
I stepped closer, standing next to him and looking out at the devastation. The city, once so full of life, was now just a crumbling reminder of the world we’d lost. But up here, on this rooftop, it almost felt peaceful—like the chaos was far away, even though I knew it was creeping closer with every second.
“How are you feeling?” I asked, my voice quiet but full of concern.
He sighed, running a hand through his hair. “I don’t know. I feel like… like I’m losing control. Every time I close my eyes, I see that creature we locked up in the basement. And I wonder… how much time do I have left before I turn into something like that?”
My heart ached hearing the pain in his voice. I wished I could take that fear away from him, make him see that he wasn’t alone in this. But I knew how hard it was for him. Hyun-su had been fighting against his own body for so long, and the pressure was only getting worse.
“You’re not going to turn into that,” I said firmly, reaching out to place my hand over his. “You’re stronger than that, Hyun-su. You’ve been fighting this thing from the start, and you’re still you. That’s not going to change.”
He looked down at our hands, his thumb brushing gently over mine. “What if I can’t control it anymore? What if… what if I hurt you?”
“You won’t,” I said, my voice steady. “I know you won’t.”
He was silent for a long moment, and when he finally spoke, his voice was low and filled with uncertainty. “I don’t deserve your trust, Y/N. I’m dangerous. I’m a monster.”
“No, you’re not,” I said, my grip on his hand tightening. “You’re not a monster. You’re the person who saved us—who saved me. You’re the reason we’re still alive.”
He turned to face me then, his eyes filled with so much emotion that it made my heart clench. “You don’t know how much that means to me,” he whispered.
I smiled, leaning in just a little closer, my voice soft. “I do. Because you mean everything to me, Hyun-su.”
The tension between us seemed to shift, turning into something deeper, something more intimate. For a brief moment, the chaos of the world around us faded into the background, and all I could think about was the boy standing in front of me—the one who had risked everything for me, for us.
Slowly, cautiously, I reached up and cupped his cheek, my thumb brushing against his skin. He leaned into my touch, his eyes closing for just a second, as if he was trying to hold onto this moment, to ground himself in the warmth of my hand.
When he opened his eyes again, there was a vulnerability there that I hadn’t seen before. “I don’t know what I’d do without you, Y/N,” he murmured, his voice barely audible.
“You won’t ever have to find out,” I replied, my heart pounding in my chest. “I’m not going anywhere.”
Cha Hyun-su’s POV
Y/N’s words hit me harder than I expected. I had been so used to being alone, to carrying the weight of everything by myself. But she wasn’t going to let me do that anymore. She was here, standing by my side, no matter how dangerous or uncertain things were.
For the first time in a long time, I felt like I wasn’t fighting this battle alone.
I swallowed hard, my throat tight with emotion. I had never been good at expressing how I felt, especially in moments like this. But Y/N was different. She had a way of seeing through the walls I put up, of understanding me even when I couldn’t find the words.
“I don’t want to lose you,” I whispered, the fear I had been trying to push down finally bubbling to the surface. “I don’t want you to see me… like that.”
“You won’t lose me,” she said, her voice strong, filled with that quiet confidence that always made me feel like maybe, just maybe, things would be okay. “No matter what happens, I’m staying with you.”
I didn’t deserve her. I didn’t deserve any of this—the trust, the hope, the love that she was offering me. But I wanted to. I wanted to be someone she could rely on, someone who was worthy of her faith.
“Y/N,” I started, but before I could finish, the sound of footsteps echoed from behind us, breaking the moment.
We both turned to see Jae-heon standing at the entrance to the rooftop, his expression grim.
“They’re here,” he said, his voice laced with urgency. “The soldiers. They’ve arrived.”
Y/N’s POV
A cold wave of fear washed over me at Jae-heon’s words. The soldiers. They were here already. We weren’t ready. We hadn’t even had a chance to figure out where to hide Hyun-su, how to protect him from being discovered.
Hyun-su’s hand tightened around mine as we exchanged a quick glance. His eyes were filled with determination, but I could also see the fear lurking beneath the surface. He was trying to stay calm, but I knew he was terrified of what might happen if the soldiers found out what he was.
“We need to move,” Jae-heon said, his voice low but urgent. “They’re searching the building, room by room. We don’t have much time.”
My heart raced as I looked around the rooftop, searching for any possible hiding spots. But there was nothing. We were completely exposed up here.
“What do we do?” I asked, my voice trembling slightly despite my efforts to stay calm.
Jae-heon frowned, thinking quickly. “There’s a storage room on the lower floors—somewhere out of the way. It might buy us some time. But we need to go now.”
Hyun-su nodded, his jaw clenched. “Lead the way.”
We hurried down the stairwell, our footsteps echoing in the dark, narrow space. My mind was racing, trying to figure out how we were going to get through this. The soldiers were trained to find infected—they wouldn’t just pass Hyun-su by. But we couldn’t give up. We had to find a way to protect him.
As we reached the lower floors, Jae-heon gestured toward a small door at the end of the hallway. “In there,” he said, his voice hushed. “It’s not much, but it’s the best we’ve got right now.”
Hyun-su stepped forward, his eyes scanning the area. “Y/N, you stay here with the others. I’ll hide inside.”
“No,” I said immediately, shaking my head. “I’m not leaving you.”
“Y/N—”
“I’m not,” I repeated, cutting him off. “I’m staying with you.”
He stared at me for a moment, his expression conflicted. But he didn’t argue. Instead, he nodded, his shoulders sagging slightly in defeat.
Cha Hyun-su’s POV
There was no point in trying to change Y/N’s mind. She had made it clear that she wasn’t going to leave me, no matter how dangerous things got. A part of me was relieved—having her by my side made everything feel just a little less overwhelming. But another part of me was terrified. What if something happened to her because of me?
We slipped inside the storage room, the dim light barely illuminating the small, cramped space. There were old shelves lined with broken equipment, dusty boxes piled up in the corners. It wasn’t much, but it would have to do.
Y/N and I crouched behind a stack of boxes, our breathing shallow as we listened for any signs of movement outside.
Minutes passed. Then more. The silence was suffocating.
But then, the unmistakable sound of footsteps echoed down the hallway.
My heart pounded
in my chest as I held my breath, praying that the soldiers wouldn’t come this way. Y/N’s hand found mine in the dark, and I squeezed it tightly, drawing strength from her presence.
The footsteps grew louder, closer. My body tensed, every muscle coiled, ready to react if I had to. If they found us…
The door creaked open.
I froze, my blood turning to ice as the beam of a flashlight swept across the room.
They were here.
I could feel Y/N trembling next to me, but she didn’t make a sound. We both stayed perfectly still, hidden behind the boxes, hoping that the soldiers wouldn’t check too thoroughly.
The light passed over us once, then twice. I held my breath, waiting for the inevitable.
But then, the light disappeared, and the footsteps retreated.
The door closed.
I exhaled slowly, the tension draining from my body as the danger passed. We weren’t safe yet, but at least for now, we had avoided detection.
Y/N leaned against me, her forehead resting against my shoulder as she let out a shaky breath. “That was too close,” she whispered.
I nodded, my heart still racing. “Yeah.”
For a long moment, neither of us spoke. We just sat there, our hands still entwined, the adrenaline slowly fading.
“We’ll get through this,” Y/N said quietly, her voice filled with a quiet determination. “We’ll find a way.”
I glanced down at her, my heart swelling with gratitude and something else—something deeper that I hadn’t let myself acknowledge until now.
“I know we will,” I said softly, my voice barely above a whisper.

Chapter 5

Title: Strength in Each Other
Chapter 5: The Edge of Survival
Y/N’s POV
I never thought I’d find myself living through something like this—monsters, death, and constant fear. Every moment felt like a fight to survive, a fight to keep the people we cared about alive.
But through it all, there was Hyun-su. No matter how dark things became, I found strength in him. His quiet determination, the way he always put others before himself, it made me feel safe even when everything around us was falling apart.
After the close call with the monsters, we sat in the barricaded room, resting. The silence between us wasn’t uncomfortable. In fact, it felt peaceful, like we had an unspoken understanding. We didn’t need words to know what the other was thinking.
I leaned my head against Hyun-su’s shoulder, feeling the steady rise and fall of his chest. “What do you think is happening outside?” I asked quietly, breaking the silence.
Hyun-su’s hand twitched slightly, his fingers brushing mine as if to comfort me. “It’s getting worse,” he said, his voice low. “More monsters. Fewer places to hide.”
His words sent a chill down my spine, but I already knew he was right. The screams and crashes we’d been hearing for the last hour confirmed it. Green Home was falling apart, and there wasn’t much time left before everything came crashing down.
I closed my eyes, trying to push away the fear that gnawed at me. “I’m scared, Hyun-su.”
“I know,” he whispered. “But we’re going to get through this. I’ll protect you.”
There it was again—his promise to keep me safe. And somehow, every time he said it, I believed him. Even when everything else seemed hopeless, I believed in Hyun-su.
Cha Hyun-su’s POV
It wasn’t just her who was scared. I was terrified too. I didn’t let it show, but the weight of everything—every life lost, every monster we faced—was heavy. But when I looked at Y/N, I felt this deep need to protect her, to keep her away from the horrors outside.
I couldn’t explain it. I barely knew her before all of this happened, but now, she was the one thing keeping me grounded. In a world filled with monsters, she was the only thing that felt real.
But I couldn’t afford to lose focus. There was no time for weakness, not when the building was crawling with creatures that could kill us in seconds. I had to stay sharp, for her.
“We should check on the others,” I said, standing up and holding out my hand to her.
Y/N looked up at me, her eyes full of trust, and placed her hand in mine. That small gesture—it gave me the strength I needed to keep going.
We moved carefully through the building, avoiding the sections we knew were infested with monsters. Every creak, every shadow made my heart race, but I kept my focus on her, making sure she stayed close. I couldn’t let anything happen to her. Not on my watch.
Y/N’s POV
As we crept through the dark hallways, I couldn’t help but steal glances at Hyun-su. The way he moved, always so alert, so ready to protect me… it was more than just survival. He cared. I could see it in the way his eyes flicked toward me, making sure I was okay.
When we finally made it to one of the safer areas where the other residents were holed up, the tension eased slightly. People were huddled together, their faces pale with fear, but there was a sense of solidarity. We were all in this together.
“Hyun-su!” A voice called out, and I turned to see Jae-heon, the pastor who had taken charge of keeping everyone together. His expression was grim. “It’s bad. More monsters have broken through the lower floors. We’re running out of time.”
Hyun-su’s jaw tightened, and I could see the weight of Jae-heon’s words settle over him. We weren’t just fighting for survival anymore—we were running out of places to hide.
“What can we do?” I asked, stepping forward. I wasn’t going to stand by and do nothing. I couldn’t.
Jae-heon’s eyes softened slightly as he looked at me. “We need to fortify the upper floors. It’s the only way we’ll have a chance of keeping them out.”
“We’ll help,” Hyun-su said firmly, glancing at me as if to ask if I was okay with it.
I nodded. If there was a way to help, to keep everyone safe, we had to do it.
Cha Hyun-su’s POV
We spent the next few hours helping to reinforce the barricades, moving whatever we could to block the entrances. Y/N worked right beside me, never complaining, never showing fear. It was like she had found this inner strength, and it made me admire her even more.
But as the hours passed, the sounds of the monsters grew louder. The building was becoming more dangerous by the minute.
“Hyun-su,” Y/N whispered, her voice trembling slightly. “What if… what if we can’t hold them off?”
I paused, looking at her. Her eyes were wide, filled with uncertainty. I hated seeing her like this, scared and unsure. I wanted to tell her everything would be fine, but I couldn’t lie.
“We’ll figure something out,” I said instead, reaching out to squeeze her hand. “As long as we stick together, we’ll be okay.”
She nodded, though I could see the fear lingering in her eyes. I hated feeling powerless, hated knowing that no matter how hard I tried, I couldn’t promise her safety.
Y/N’s POV
Hyun-su’s hand in mine brought me a sense of calm, even though the fear still lingered. His presence alone was enough to make me believe that somehow, we’d survive this.
But then, there was a sudden crash from the stairwell, followed by a blood-curdling screech. My heart stopped. The monsters had found us.
“They’re here!” someone shouted, panic spreading like wildfire through the room.
Hyun-su grabbed my arm, pulling me close as the others scrambled to reinforce the barricades. But I could see it in his eyes—the realization that the barricades wouldn’t hold for long.
“We need to get out of here,” he said urgently, his grip on my arm tightening. “Now.”
We didn’t have time to think. We ran, pushing through the panicked crowd as the sound of the monsters grew closer. My heart pounded in my chest, but I trusted Hyun-su to lead the way.
We made it to another stairwell, this one still intact, and rushed up to one of the higher floors. The air was heavy with fear and tension, but we couldn’t stop. We couldn’t look back.
When we finally reached a small, empty room on the top floor, Hyun-su slammed the door shut, breathing heavily as he leaned against it. I collapsed onto the floor, my legs shaking from the adrenaline.
For a moment, we just sat there, the weight of what had just happened settling over us.
“Hyun-su,” I whispered, my voice barely audible. “What do we do now?”
He didn’t answer right away, but when he finally spoke, his voice was quiet, determined. “We survive. No matter what.”
Cha Hyun-su’s POV
As I looked at Y/N, exhausted but still determined, I realized something. She wasn’t just someone I needed to protect—she was my reason for fighting. My reason for surviving.
In this hellish world, she was the only thing that kept me going. And I wasn’t going to lose her. Not to the monsters. Not to anything.
“We’ll get through this,” I said softly, my voice steady. “As long as we’re together.”
Y/N looked at me, her eyes filled with trust and something else… something deeper. And in that moment, I knew I’d do anything to keep her safe. No matter what it took.
