[Z] The Shelter

@Kwon Soonyoung He drank from the bottle thirstily, and between himself and his companion, the large once full bottle was nearly empty. His brows wrinkled together, wishing he had only had a few drops to last them until they could come across a reliable source of water. When the boy spoke again, however, Jungkook lifted his eyes and scratched the back of his friend's ear. They'd eat once they found a safe spot.

"Temporarily. There's a lot of hordes on the move, so we haven't found permanent fortitude yet." He admitted, looking down at his companion, who panted with her eyes on Sooyoung without aggression. Would this person really offer them a place to stay? He wasn't sure, but he did know that had he been in Raider territory, they would have killed them on the spot.

@Jeon Jungkook Soonyoung may viewed to be naive and people would think he is easily to be fooled but in the culmination, he will prove them wrong. Even if he made a deal like it was not even once a challenging brawl and that does not implying he is vacuous about his surroundings. He is not a kindergarten child again. He has grown up maturer, thankfully escorted by the destruction of the world and he assembled an increasing knowledge that people can have similar mindsets but a few individuals behave differently. Personalities will remain sticking to the humans. Back then, you would be blamed for living a selfish trait but now, you would never find positiveness in anyone ever again and he understood why people push one another to rescuing themselves.

His sleeves rolled up when he feels the heat making him uncomfortable in a bit as he lifting himself up and commence his concentration on the interchange. Soonyoung had less idea if he should guess the two would need the medics but he accept them willingly anyway since he had a bigger responsibility to take care of the whole family and fellow survivors being locked inside the house without having the chance to explore outside. He pass the substance to the man securing him from his side then he could recall the emptied and old cabin right across the path.

"Do you have a place that you can spend as sanctuary?"

@Kwon Soonyoung Jungkook hadn't planned on betraying them, but he hadn't anticipated for the guy to accept the trade without hesitation. He could hear the voices in the distant, calling him crazy for believing a stranger -and while it was towards him, he agreed. Jungkook would have trusted no one under this circumstance. Or so, he liked to believe. He did this for Seagull. Animals didn't complain, and stayed true to their masters when their loyalty was earned. He remembered the times when she'd taken down prey, wild rabbits and deer, and instead of devouring it alone, brought it back to their temporary shelter for him to skin and cook over a fire. This was the least he could do.

He held up his hands to the man that pointed his weapon at him as he reached for his backpack, only getting out the dozens of health packs and med kits, along with pharmaceuticals that he could gather when he'd managed to raid a pharmacy in the city. He of course left some for himself, namely allergy medicine and pain killers, with a few wound care devices he and Seagull would need. The stash he had was enough for 5 people for 4 uses, more than enough for himself on top of what he had stashed at his own living space. He too lowered the items onto the ground, swapping them for the bag of things.

"Thank you." He said, voice a little rough, breathy and husky. He bowed his head feebly and lowered himself too quickly distribute the water into his palms for Seagull to thirsty lap away.

@Jeon Jungkook Upon the presence may not seem to be as intimidating as he think right after he unbolted the huge gate, based on the appearance he captured through his undemanding vision and the raven-black hair has been endured proficiently. He could tell they barely damaging even when years passed with only scissors to do a surpassed haircut yet effortless but compared to his platinum has faded the shine and blended with dirty blots. Nothing like a vogue in the past matters anymore. The stranger around his age given a chance to speak up. As Soonyoung earned the greet, he eventually loosened the grip on his dagger attaching to his combat dark cargo pants. He puts himself in the road of thinking until he came up with his own decision.

"Uhm. Please wait,"

Even though there are always a slim chance for the latter to lie, yet, he does not concern. In this unscrupulous generation does not offer generosity. Soonyoung returns inside and arranging a man to take a look on the stranger outside their fence if he planned on sneaking or taking advantage. No one will ever know the truths. Within a few minutes, Soonyoung came back packing enough foods as well as a few cans with only a large bottle of water inside a duffel bag. He was scolded for believing in outsider but he shrugs them off like he is matured enough to define the wrongdoings.

"I hope you wouldn't disappoint us."

Crouching down on his knees to place the bag in front of the male and at the same moment, he find himself reaches the similar level of the furry creature growling as he curve a sudden smile.

@Kwon Soonyoung It took humility, something Jungkook had long traded for pride and self-preservation, for him to allow himself to move towards the shelter. His weapons remained sheathed -presenting himself with no intention of causing harm or posing any threat. He tried to humble himself as he moved towards the gate, aware of the surveillance cameras hoisted on the tall walls, and the high watch towers with armed guards stationed at them. He'd found a few traps planted in the grounds as well, circumventing the area, and had even almost fallen into a pit of age old zombies trapped inside of it.

His dark eyes met the other males, and he had to assume that they were the same age. The white wolf's fur raised on its hunches, and it growled in low protective threat, yet remained hugged at Jungkook's side. The boy's fingers brushed against her -a small sign between them for her to stand down. "We.. " He began, his throat and lips dry from parchment, hidden behind the black fashion mask over the lower portion of his face. It'd done well to help protect him from the pollen and musk. "We'd like to trade with you. A ration of food and water for health packs and med kits."

Because nothing in this world came free.

@Jeon Jungkook The glimpse of the sun does never seems to be heating for gregariousness. They contains the shadow of gloomy fates and torturing destiny as facing the Earth has slowly turning upside down without controllable powers to restarting everything from where the world was once a peaceful globe. Soonyoung was leaning by the railings of the guard tower, in which he imagined the only home for him to stay a bit longer with fellow survivors living inside the house as he become the one charged for clearance duty and securing the place with eagle eyes. He has been practicing to never forming a weak point, so he took years for an improvement in his fighting skills whenever he had the spare opportunity.

While drowning in the messy ponder thoughts, he lift his head down from looking at the scenery above and eventually detected a moving creature. Soonyoung had to pick up his rifle and aiming for a better look as he examined the figure is strolling their way towards the shelter with an assuming to be wolf on the side. He could not have the guts to shoot randomly, except if they are possible to be raiders or the infected. He refused to use the rifle then hurried to jumped off the tower, hoping to settle things himself instead of informing the rest as he walks to the locked gate.

@Kwon Soonyoung The hunger was unbearable, and Jungkook was concerned more for Seagull than he had been for himself. They needed to eat, and Seagull becoming too weak and malnourished could easily slow down her chances for survival. The last thing he could stand to lose was his loyal companion. He was also too stubborn to drop to his needs, beg or ask for help, but it was pure desperation that had him following the path towards the shelter -the place big enough within the wilderness to see even from a distance. He could tell, just by the way it'd been fortified, that the place was probably filled with others.

Watchers, or Raiders. he treaded carefully to avoid any inevitable traps and wandered closer to the guys, He was armed, yes, and he had no intentions of joining. He just needed to get food and be on his way.

Humans couldn't be trusted, ever, and they'd never give without getting something in return.
