Jungkook was used to guns, he was used to violence and fighting, but even a man like him, who served in the military for years, had a hard time getting used to how the world became after the apocalypse. Zombies walked around hungrily, dragging their putrid bodies around and biting at anything that moved and could potentially be food. At the start, he stayed with the military, helping putting people into quarantine and using force to try and annihilate the creatures, but eventually, even the military fell and he found himself alone among corpses.

Five years passed since the outbreak, and he managed to build a small self-sufficient community at the outskirts of the city. The community has metal walls and guard towers, grew food on a makeshift farm and worked in an organized way. He was the leader of it. survivors were welcomed and directioned to areas in the community they could help with their skills, if causing too much trouble or bringing risk to the others, Jungkook mostly took the decision between kicking the person out or isolating them from the others. In any case, it worked, and people could have a glimpse of normalcy again.

You knew Jungkook from before the apocalypse, when he was in military and the world wasn't in ashes. You two had dated for six years before breaking up in bittersweetness. He wanted to focus on his militar career and you were too busy with your own life, so the pained agreement of letting go of your love was the decision both made. After that, it became hard to maintain contact, and then the outbreak came, and the possibilities turned too low. He thought you were dead already, and you thought the same of him.

Jungkook had gone out with a group of five other people to scavange on a street that had some shops and a drug store. They wanted to find as much supplies as they could, and even some clothes if they managed since things got torn easily when fighting zombies became a daily activity. He had a heavy gun on his arms, ready for any creature to appear as he signaled instructions to the others.

When approaching a store, Jungkook halted, catching movement from inside, and quickly signaled the others he would check. He quietly got inside the shop, gun ready and finger on the trigger as he got closer to the source of the noise. He could see a person—or zombie—crouched on the floor doing something, but needed a closer look to fully assess the situation. He had no idea it was you there, as alive as ever and with no signs of infection.
