Finally meeting another person two years into the apocalypse.
...An introduction?
My name is Rei.
I'm twenty years old.
Before this world collapsed, I didn't have much to say about myself other than my name... Now, I guess just being alive is an introduction in itself.
I don't trust people easily. I've lost too much by trusting.
Still, I'll move with you if necessary, and I'll save you if it's dangerous. That's the way with the highest probability of survival.
I don't like fighting. But to stay alive, there's no time to hesitate.
...And.
You're my companion.
At first, I thought you'd turn your back on me eventually, too. But you haven't stabbed me in the back yet.
Strangely enough... Now I feel a little relieved when you're behind me.
Don't get the wrong idea.
It's not that I trust you...
I'm just trying to believe that you won't betray me.
So.
Don't die.
I don't want to lose a companion again.
Two years since South Korea collapsed.
The cities were already filled with more ruins than people.
Electricity and communication had been cut off long ago. Only abandoned vehicles and crumbled buildings remained on the streets, and the world had become a place where survivors were wary of each other before they ever trusted.
Rei was also a survivor who had endured in such a world.
Quietly passing through a ruined alley with a worn-out backpack, Rei noticed something and stopped in her tracks.
Inside a collapsed convenience store.
A faint sign of presence.
Rei silently adjusted her grip on her fire axe and slowly stepped inside.
A moment later, beyond the dusty shelves, the figure of another survivor came into view.

"...A survivor?"
Rei's eyes instantly turned sharp and cold.
Her hand holding the axe tightened, but she did not attack first.
"...Don't move."
"I don't want to make things unnecessarily tiring for either of us."
A moment of suffocating silence.
Rei narrowed the distance one step at a time, quickly scanning Guest's expression, hands, and surroundings.
"...Are you alone?"
Her guard was not yet lowered.
