I know we’ve just met but I’m not afraid to say that my recent absence was because of a mental breakdown but I’m doing better now!
Okay, so any of you who follow my Voltron blog @imagine-voltron will know that I have a DEEP LOVE FOR ZOMBIE APOCALYPSE AU’S. So, of course, I have headcanons for Mystic Messenger zombies.
Btw spoilers for everything??
Also, I wanted to try something new! So, this is an interactive-type thing! Once you get to the end, there’ll be options and you guys get to pick where MC goes next on her zombie adventure! Pick the choice you like best and leave me a message in my askbox saying what choice MC should make.
So it all starts after the everything is said and done. Everyone is alive (for now), and MC just kind of ended up being everyone’s friend or like a big sister (to Yoosung and Saeran), and did not get together with anyone. V, Rika, and Saeran are all fine (as in alive), and everything is hunky-dory.
That is, until the outbreak.
There was chaos everywhere. No one knew what to do. Traffic was jammed for miles. People were panicking and running around wildly.
And MC was in her pajamas, alone in her apartment, unaware of what was going on outside.
She grabbed a cup of orange juice and her phone which, surprisingly had like 20 messages from everyone. Even V had tried to call a few times. She had gotten used to the constant messaging in the chats and waking up to about 50 new texts, but she had never woken up to about 50 missed calls.
She knew something was wrong.
She immediately thought of the worst. There was an accident. Zen tripped into a pile of cats and died from an allergic reaction. Jumin got into a car accident and died. Saeran cut his wrists open. Jaehee starved herself to death. Saeyoung got shot. Rika hung herself. V’s plane crashed. Yoosung got caught in the middle of a fight at school and someone pulled out a knife. Which one was it?
She decided to play the first voicemail. It was from V.
“MC… I know it’s late but you need to answer your phone. Please pick up, it’s awful. You need to–”
She played the next one, this one from Yoosung.
“MC, did you see what happened? Ah, I’m so scared! Are you okay? Stay inside! I’ll come get you, you’ll be safe, I promise!”
That worried her even further. When was this call placed? Midnight. When was it now? Six in the morning. Now, Yoosung only lives about a half hour away, so where is he?
She listened to message after message, eventually getting to the point where she figured out what was going on.
It was the end of the world. Dead people were roaming around and she had no idea how many of the people she loved had died.
She grabbed an old backpack from under the bed, looking around the apartment she had moved into after Rika moved back into hers.
She shoved in an extra pair of underwear, another shirt, a pair of pants, and a can of pepper-spray Zen had given her as a housewarming gift. She threw on regular clothes and took a peak out the window, hoping this could be a joke Saeyoung had roped everyone into playing on her.
However, when she saw the woman take a bite out of her baby’s head, she knew this was very real.
She ran to the bathroom to vomit after seeing it happen.
Still shaking from emptying her stomach of orange juice and last night’s dinner, she wandered into her kitchen.
She grabbed several cans from the cupboards, stuffing them into her bag. She grabbed water bottles, crackers, medicine from the cabinets, a kitchen knife, bandaids, a flashlight, batteries, socks, and a photo album. The album was the most important part of this little “survival kit”. It was full of photos of her family, both related by blood and related by friendship. Some were awful ones taken by a family member on their phone a few years ago, and some were nice ones of the group at events taken by V. She kept the pictures safe in the book in her backpack. She looked around her apartment, wondering if there was anything else she should take.
She stuffed more cans into her bag and filled another bottle with water. She grabbed her keys and her coat, running down the stairs and jumping into her car, looking in the back seat, just to make sure. If you’ve ever seen Zombieland, you’ll understand the car rule. She threw her backpack in the back seat, locking the doors and driving out of the parking lot.
She took a deep breath and thought about who she should go to.
She thought of looking for Yoosung. However, she was afraid that if she found him, he would be…
She thought about going to Rika. She’s probably terrified right now, unsure if this is just another one of her delusions. But she was sure V had gone to her as soon as he knew what happened. He cared about her, even though she hurt him. Such a nice guy…
Saeyoung and Saeran were probably safe. She doubted a zombie could break into their home. It was super secure, right?
Jaehee is well-versed in self-defense, so there wasn’t much to worry about with her. She’ll be okay for a little bit.
Jumin seems like the one who’d be safest, but in reality, she knew the guards wouldn’t stay with him. But he may have a bunker?
Decisions, decisions. She had to choose who to go to, and quickly. Her car was running out of gas. She only has enough to make it to one RFA member.
2. Go to Rika’s apartment.
3. Go to Saeyoung and Saeran.
