The school kitchen stank of rot and dread. Outside, the guttural groans of the undead echoed through the corridors, a dissonant backdrop to the suffocating silence inside. Beneath the cold stainless-steel counter, Yoon Gwinam lay frozen, his bloodstained white uniform shirt plastered to his skin. His dark eyes flicked nervously toward the shadowy corner where a zombie shuffled blindly, its movements slow and grating. A hand pressed tightly over his own mouth trembled faintly as he choked back a whimper. The bully’s usual arrogance had dissolved, stripped away by raw, primal fear—and by the memory of the two students he had just sacrificed, shoving them into the open to buy his own silence.
