Chapter 40: Thank you, Goodbye

Seung's Pov:
"Now, how do we start this thing?" Hoseok asked as we ran toward the train. We actually made it. We found a train station that can take us to Busan. Well, actually, the train can take them to Busan. I looked down at my hand and hissed in pain. "No...just a little longer, please," I mumbled, tugging my sleeve downward. "So, you're telling me, we found a train but, we have no idea how to use it?" I asked. This wasn't the best idea now that I think about it. Yes, we found a train to Busan and our journey can end much faster but, we don't even know how to use it. Plus, another thing happened! I gulped silently as I continued to feel the burning sensation. When will the pain end? Is this how Namjoon felt? "Maybe, we should check inside! I bet ya there are instructions on how to drive this thing!" Jungkook exclaimed, climbing onto the latter. "Is the door shut?" I asked, weakly. "No, wait!" I mumbled, softly. Not yet. Not now. I want to see them go first. "Hm..." Jungkook hummed as he picked up a nearby ax. Possibly from a train conductor or worker attempting to escape the hoard of zombies. First, Jungkook tried to open the door with the handle. But, it didn't budge, it seemed as if it was locked or jammed. Hoseok realized what Jungkook was gonna do and made all of us back up from him. Jungkook raised his arms with the ax still in his hands and he quickly brought it down against the door. The door had a huge gash in it and Jungkook put a hand inside it to see if he can unlock the door. He managed to do so as the door slowly creaked open.

He all cheered for him and he smiled proudly at what he did. He slowly removed his hand from the gash only to be released by a soft hiss. "Jungkook, what happened?" Seokjin asked as he heard the hiss. "Nothing, I just accidentally made a cut on my hand." He replied, looking at his hand. I could see the cut. It was a thin cut yet, small lines of blood came from them. It almost looked soft. Soft. Fresh. Delicious. Inticing. No! Snap out of it! Not yet! I turned around quickly to give myself a little slap on the face.

"Guys! Hurry up! I feel like another hoard of zombie are near the gigantic open space!" Namjoon spoke, panicking as he pointed at the open space of the wall. There were doors but, did they need a button to close them? No, the hole's only purpose is to keep the train safe and let the train leave the station. All four of us nodded as we entered the small compartment where the conductor would be. "Instructions..." Everyone mumbled, repeatedly. We looked around every nook and cranny of this compartment but, we finally found the instructions on a wall.

It was so dusty that you could barely see it in broad daylight. Seokjin sighed and blew on the instructions to remove the dust and wiped away anything that could make the map unreadable. He then began to read the instructions and sometimes looked to see where certain stuff would be. "Guys! Come on! I hear zombie noises!" Namjoon yelled out. His tone steadily continued to grow in panic. I could almost feel his anxiety from this spot. The compartment was silent with the only thing being heard is the sound of nearby zombie groans and moans.

"Yes! Got it! Push the button and pull on the lever when I tell you to!" Seokjin exclaimed. Hoseok and Jungkook nodded as they went to do what they were told to. Hoseok stood near the lever where Seokjin pointed at to pull. Jungkook sat near the button that he was supposed to press. "Namjoon, come here, quickly! We figured it out!" I exclaimed as I leaned from the doorway. Namjoon turned around and I could see the expression of relief. It was clear as day. I could tell he didn't want to be there any longer than he has to.

He quickly made his way over and once he entered the compartment, he stood right in front of me. "Seung-Ah, do you wanna know why zombies are suddenly near?" He asked and the air in the compartment felt almost invisible. I stood silent and looked away, he's a zombie, he would know first! He slowly grabbed my arm and pulled up my sleeve to reveal a big, fresh, and bleeding zombie bite. The three behind him gasped as they noticed it. Now, they all know. At least, I didn't have to tell them. "I'm sorry..." I spoke as tears pricked my eyes.

"I didn't have the heart to tell you because I'm scared. Please, do me a favor and don't forget me. Hoseok, continue to love Jungkook as you do, spread happiness, and overall be a huge helper. Jungkook, continue to love Hoseok, sing, and fight for others who can't. Seokjin, continue to love your zombified Joonie, find a cure for this zombie virus, and being a great leader. Namjoon, continue to be who you are, love yourself, and never give up. Thank you for everything you have given me now and as an ARMY." I explained as tears flowed down my cheeks.

I quickly ran to push the button and pull the lever as I passed by them. They were crying now. I went back outside and closed the door behind me as I cried loudly outside. The train slowly started to move and the hoard of zombies outside was visible. In the crowd, I saw three familiar faces. Min Yoongi, Park Jimin, and Kim Taehyung. I smiled softly as I remembered back to my days as an ARMY. Their songs, videos, and pictures they released. Their laughter, smiles, and problems they shared. I'll miss them. I truly will.

The train began to move faster and the zombies tried to keep up. I slowly walked toward the edge of the train where the platform ended and could no longer catch me. The door slammed opened and I turned around to see a teary-eyed Namjoon. I smiled softly as I closed my eyes. Thank you, Kim Namjoon, Kim Seokjin, Min Yoongi, Jung Hoseok, Park Jimin, Kim Taehyung, and Jeon Jungkook. "Thank you, BTS!" I exclaimed. The train made a bump in the track and I quickly fell backward. I opened my eyes to see Namjoon at the edge of the platform yet, I saw it for only a second.

As I soon fell into the hoard of zombies.
