Sayaka's fingers slid over Kenji's chest, slow and searching, like she needed to make sure he was real. Her other hand gripped his sleeve, knuckles white with leftover fear. But her body? It was trembling for an entirely different reason now.
"I haven't stopped shaking," she whispered, voice like breath on bare skin. "Ever since I ran. I saw… too much."
Kenji didn't say a word. He didn't need to.

Sayaka leaned in, her breath mixing with his. "But then you opened that door… and I—" she hesitated, her cheeks flushing as her eyes dipped again, "—I felt safe for the first time all day."
Kenji's hand found her waist.
Sin whispered seductively in his mind, "She wants it. That praise kink's melting her faster than Akane's thighs. Just say the magic words."
"You're strong, Sayaka," Kenji murmured. "You made it here on your own. Not many could've done that."
She gasped softly, chest rising.

Sayaka reached up, her fingers brushing through his hair. "Do it," she whispered. "Please…"
Kenji's mouth crushed against hers.
Their lips collided in a searing kiss—needy, raw, and dangerously unfiltered. Sayaka moaned into it, rising on her toes, pressing her soft curves into him. Her fingers clawed at his shirt as if trying to drag him inside her through skin and fabric alone.
His hands gripped her hips, dragging her against his cock—already stiff and throbbing beneath his pants. Sayaka gasped against his mouth, grinding her hips in desperate rhythm.

Sayaka pulled back, panting. Her pupils were dilated, lips swollen from the kiss.
"I-I don't know what came over me…"
Kenji chuckled darkly. "You don't have to explain."
Sayaka reached down and clutched his hand tightly. "Don't leave me alone tonight. Please."
Before he could answer, the cafeteria lights flickered.
The intercom crackled to life overhead.
"Attention staff and students. Quarantine breach detected in Building C. All emergency protocols have failed. Please proceed to nearest secure zone or prepare for hostile engagement."
Everyone outside the supply room went dead silent.
Then—
CRASH!
A window shattered in the main cafeteria.
Kenji burst out of the storage room with Sayaka clinging to his back. Rei stood at the center of the cafeteria with her stun rod drawn. Tetsuo had already picked up his bat. Akane was still buttoning her shirt, eyes darting toward the noise.
Three zombies had broken through the narrow kitchen corridor.
But these weren't like the first wave.
These were faster.
Hungrier.
Eyes glowing faintly red—veins pulsing, skin split like overcooked sausage. One dropped to all fours and snarled like a feral animal.
Rei barked, "Enhanced mutation. They're evolving."
Tetsuo swore under his breath. "We're screwed!"
Kenji stepped forward. "No. We fight."
Sayaka grabbed a chair. "Tell me what to do!"
Kenji grinned. "Stay close. And swing like you mean it."
He charged first.
Crowbar raised, he slammed the tip straight into the head of the lead crawler. The sickening crunch of skull was followed by a spray of black blood. Rei stabbed her stun rod into the second, frying its nervous system. The third leapt—fast, vicious—but Akane threw a damn soup pot at its head and tackled it with a banshee scream.
Tetsuo followed up with a skull-shattering home run.
The cafeteria went quiet again—except for the sound of heavy breathing and Sayaka's tiny whimper as she clung to Kenji's side, adrenaline crashing.
"System," Kenji muttered. "What the hell was that?"
Sin answered, voice unusually serious. "Stage One mutation. Infection is adapting to high-value resistance zones. These aren't your average cafeteria crawlers anymore. They're learning. And if you want to stay alive? You'd better start leveling up."

Rei wiped her blade clean, eyeing Kenji across the blood-stained linoleum.
"You fought well."
"You too," he replied, voice steady, though his heart was hammering.
Then Rei added, quieter, "I saw what you did with Sayaka."
Kenji blinked. "You spying now?"
Rei looked away, her expression unreadable. "Just… don't get careless."
Akane smirked from the corner, still topless under her jacket. "Jealous, sensei?"
Sayaka flushed. "W-What?! I wasn't trying to—!"
Tetsuo just collapsed into a chair. "Man… I need a nap, a drink, and someone to sit on my face. Not in that order."
Kenji exhaled.
Another night survived. But the storm was building. The system was watching. And Sin?
Sin was grinning in his skull like the damn devil on his shoulder.
"This is only the beginning, lover boy. Just wait till the MILFs and Young Highschool Hotties start lining up."
Kenji cracked his neck.
Bring it on.
