    A mysterious virus outbreaks and begins something no one ever was ready to face. From rich cities to small towns in South Korea were destroyed and plagued by Zombies, otherwise known as Walkers. Park Jimin never thought he would be in the center of an apocalypse, witnessing the worst reality. A year passed, and he fought to survive, hiding from not only the walkers but also a vicious group called Dolda, who was after the girl he had as a friend since the start of the apocalypse. He hasn't met any survivors whom he could call good people, as the people they ever met either tried to kill him and his friend or stole from them. He thought the word humanity didn't exist anymore, but his thought was proved wrong when he encountered his ex-best friend, Kim Ara, whom he despised. Kim Ara was strong enough to face anything that came to her and brave enough to survive the apocalypse with her group. However, a secret was buried deep inside her, and she didn't want anyone to find out about it, especially Jimin, whom she had met after a long time. SNEAK PEEK: Astonished, Ara looked at Jimin, who was already pointing a shotgun at her, and rolled her eyes in annoyance. "If you want to kill me that badly, why don't you shoot me?" She stepped toward him, gazing at the guns on the shelves. She took a Rifle in her hand, adjusted it, and pointed back at Jimin, who seemed unfazed by her action. She smirked as she closed one eye and looked through the rear sight. Pin-drop silence filled the air as you both stood there, aiming at each other, eyes focused on each other. Ara could see how Jimin's muscles flexed and contracted, and his sharp jaw clenched tightly while his teeth pressed against his lower lip. Her irises trailed on his arms, her mouth curving into an 'o' shape, seeing nerves popping out of his skin. She couldn't help but find him sexy and felt her stomach flip-flop due to it while blood rushed to her cheeks, almost forgetting that she was at gunpoint.

    Allow me to introduce myself: the name's Dylan Neville. I'm a decent writer, a good cook, and (if I do say so myself) the sharpest shot in the City. Nice to meet you all. Well, I found out the hard way that there's only so many bridges you can burn before you've got no more places to run. So I had to turn to my brother, currently sitting on his newly minted detective agency and looking for assistants. Ryan spent most of our childhood as an amateur sleuth. But I'd say there are significant differences between being a kid detective and doing the business as an adult. For instance; your name gets stamped above the door for the mighty convenience of anyone who wants you dead. Can't say this is how I imagined spending my twenties. But hey, I've got nowhere else to go. Might as well make the best out of it.
