Road Test

(Chapter 3)

By: chengsandagan111

After setting up everything, Shinwoo and Ikhan hurriedly went into the river, followed by Regis, Seira, Yuna, Suyi then Rai and Raskreia.

The river water was too clear that you could almost see the bottom and its flow was not too strong.

"Woah! I can almost see my soul in here! Hahaha!" Shinwoo joked as he stare at his reflection on the water.

"Is the water too deep?" Suyi asked.

"Wait. I'll jump." Shinwoo replied and readied himself to jump onto the water.

"Be careful." Yuna said.

But before Shinwoo took his jump, Ikhan went ahead of him and told everyone that the water wasn't too deep and it's just cold but it's tolerable. Again, Shinwoo got Ikhan and shove his face. In return, Ikhan splashed him with the river water and made everyone laugh at them.

Then, Yuna and Suyi didn't wait any longer, they swam together with Shinwoo and Ikhan. Regis and Seira excused themselves and went back to the campsite and prepared the food.

Rai and Raskreia stood still, they watched the human children enjoy themselves with the river and with laughter.

"Rai! Raskreia! Aren't you gonna swim? C'mon!" Shinwoo called.

Rai didn't answered neither the Lord Raskreia. The two supreme nobles just gave the red-haired young boy a smile and let the human children have fun by themselves.

As the two supreme nobles took their way back to their camp headquarter, Rai stopped by under a big tree for a moment and let his sight wander around the entire area. Raskreia stood few steps away from him with her back turned against the Noblesse and kept watching the lively human children from afar. A minute later, they went back to the campsite and had a cup of tea while waiting for the food.

"Everyone, let's eat." Frankenstein called.

"Where are they?" Tao asked while putting down the tray of grilled meat onto the table.

"I'll go get them." Takeo said and went to the riverside.

Then, the human children came back along with Takeo and started eating.

Hours passed and everyone's still enjoying themselves, even Frankenstein temporarily set aside his annoyance.

Ikhan felt sorry for defeating Shinwoo on their water game and called his red-haired friend for a rematch. He thought that maybe Shinwoo just told everyone that he wanted to take a nap but the truth is that he's upset.

Due to his exhaustion and loss by the water game, Shinwoo on the other hand decided to take a nap under a tree near their camp headquarter and left everyone with their activities.

After a long while, Shinwoo woke up and noticed that the area was quiet. He got up and noticed that everyone was gone too, but their cars are still perfectly parked at the roadside. Even their camping tables, chairs and other get-away belongings were gone.

They didn't left me all alone here, right?

He decided to take a walk and hoped that he will see anyone before sunset. Unfortunately for him, he doesn't have a watch or a cellphone so he's not sure what was the time, but he's sure that it's just few minutes until the sun goes down. He have to find everyone.

Before Shinwoo could reach the river, he heard a rustling sound by the bush and a little sobs of a crying girl from afar.

W- who could it be?

"Seira? Yuna? Suyi? Raskreia? W- who's there?!" Shinwoo hesitantly asked. His fear slowly eats his voice.

The rustling sound continued and even gotten stronger when a big blow of the cold evening air struck. Shinwoo started to tremble in fear and worry but he have to be strong.

"Guys! Where are you?!" Shinwoo asked loudly. Hoping anyone could hear him.

"It's getting cold! Let's go home!" He continued.

The cold evening air continued to strike as Shinwoo continued to look for anyone. Later on, the red haired young boy heard a running steps from afar, he could heard that it's running into him.

The running steps continued and bursted out of the bush which made Shinwoo yell and startled. It was M21, panting. His face looked exhausted and scared.

"A- ajuhssi! Where are they?! W- what happened?!" Shinwoo asked worriedly.

Before M21 could say a word, they heard running steps. More running steps this time, it could be everyone.

Shinwoo was right, it was everyone. They got out of the bush and they looked exhausted. Trembling in fear and they all looked like they ran away from someone or something scary.

"W- what the hell happened?!" Shinwoo asked. His voice started to tremble just like his body.

He looked at Yuna and Suyi. They're both crying and sobbing. Shinwoo glanced at Regis who's now stone-faced, trembling. As well as Rai, Raskreia and Frankenstein.

"What the hell happened?! Tell me! Where's Takeo and Tao hyung?! Where's Seira and Ikhan?!" Shinwoo asked again. Louder this time.

"T- there are z- zombies! Th- there's just too m- many of them! Th- they got Tao, Seira, Takeo and Ikhan!" M21 finally said.

"Wh- what?! Zombies?!" Shinwoo asked anxiously.

Shinwoo's chest thumped. This is clearly not a joke or prank. If it is, this is just horrible, he thought.

After a moment of crying and trembling in fear, a strong earthquake shook all of them. The field cracked in different directions and ate some of the big old trees. The air struck angrily and made all of them panic.

"Wh- what the hell...?" Shinwoo exclaimed as he try to cover Yuna and Suyi's head with his hands. His back pressed against M21, protecting everyone with all their might.

The strong earthquake finally stopped. Everyone stood still, compressed with each other.

"There might be an aftershock." Frankenstein informed. His face looked so worried as he glanced over the damaged field.

"Shit! Run! Everyone, run!" M21 exclaimed.

Shinwoo turned and glance behind their back and saw a couple of walking zombie towards them few meters away.

"Sht! Run! Run! Ajuhssi! Let's go!" Shinwoo yelled and ran. Following his friends running ahead of him and M21.

Everyone ran towards the roadside where their vehicles waits for them. Unfortunately for M21, he got caught by a grayish-blue zombie wearing ripped clothes and it took away his life just like how it ripped off M21's flesh.

"No! Nooo! Ajuhssi!" The children cried.

"Ajuhssi!" Yuna cried and fell on her knees. Thank goodness, Frankenstein and Rai helped her to get up.

Frankenstein took a steps and watched the piling hungry zombies over M21's bloody flesh. This is just too horrible but they have to fight their fear. Everyone got in the family van and Frankenstein drove back home. They have to get away.

Unfortunately, within just one minute, an aftershock happened. Frankenstein tried his best to maneuver their car, trying to pull over but the road parted and made their vehicle sank into deep. The big blocks of rock fell and smashed on top of their car and killed all of them.

"Shinwoo! Shinwoo!" Ikhan and Regis called. Tapping their red haired friend on his cheek repeatedly.

Shinwoo groaned and opened his eyes. He flinched as he saw Ikhan and Regis's worried faces looking back at him, everyone's around him. Shinwoo got up, he could feel his sweat running down on his chest, his heart beating faster, louder. He ran his palms all over his face then onto his hair, pushing his bangs up.

Then, he glanced at the field. It was still beautiful just like when they first saw it when they came. The camping stuffs, everyone are present. The trees are standing still and the sun's still up. The field is still bright and lively.

"You're having a nightmare." Frankenstein said. Standing few feet away from the red haired young boy.

"I... yeah.. I'm... sorry, I got you all worried." Shinwoo said with his head bowed. Touching his nape.

"Drink this..." Seira said. Offering a hot cup of tea.

"...I hope it will help to relax your mind." The Loyard family leader continued and gently touched Shinwoo's head.

Then, Ikhan helped Shinwoo stand on his feet and they all went to their table with a relieved looks on their faces. Luckily, as time went by and the liveliness of the children arise again, Seira kept on watching and assisting Shinwoo for the whole time and finally, the red haired young boy was able to forget his nightmare.

A/N: I based the zombie part from the infected guy that Shinwoo fought from season 1? The whole zombie nightmare was just ALL-Shinwoo's POV or perspective since he doesn't know (yet) that Rai and the others have super-power abilities. Hihi. (I'm sorry if I made this one complicated. I'll do better next time. XC)
