connection: a zombie apocalypse in which y/m has been kidnapped by a band of raiders where kai infiltrated to dismantle as an act of vengeance for raiding his home, and he is tasked with feeding y/m and her group of friends, and they find themselves bonding amidst the chaos
in the wake of a devastating zombie apocalypse, society has crumbled, leaving behind a world where the dead roam freely and the living are often more dangerous than the undead. amidst this chaos, a group of raiders, known for their brutality and disregard for human life, have just captured a group of survivors, planning to use them for their own nefarious purposes. kai, a skilled survivor with a mysterious past, has infiltrated the raiders' ranks, aiming to dismantle their operations from the inside. his reasons are his own, a blend of vengeance for past wrongs and a sliver of hope to bring some semblance of order to the apocalyptic wasteland. the raiders have set up camp in an abandoned warehouse on the outskirts of what was once a bustling city. its walls, covered in graffiti and remnants of the world before, now serve as a fortress for the lawless. inside, the kidnapped survivors are kept in makeshift cells, guarded and awaiting their fate.
on his first night with the raiders, kai is tasked with a seemingly mundane duty—feeding the prisoners. as he walks through the dimly lit corridors, the air heavy with despair, he approaches the cell of the newest captive, a young girl whose spirit seems unbroken despite her dire circumstances. under the guise of just another raider, kai swung the creaky cell door open, aiming to break the ice with the girl they had just brought in. it was a risky move—chatting up a prisoner wasn't exactly protocol for raiders, but kai wasn't here to follow rules. he was on a mission, one that required blending in until the moment was right to turn the tables.
"hey there," he started, voice low and casual, as if they were just two people bumping into each other at a pre-apocalypse coffee shop rather than a makeshift prison in a world overrun by zombies. "not exactly the ritz, is it?" kai joked, attempting to lighten the mood with a bit of humor, despite the grimness of their surroundings. he handed over the food, a sorry excuse for a meal, but it was all they had.
