Breakdown or not?

Haru woke up after sunshine, feeling like shit as always.He remembered the events happened yesterday and put a cigarette to his mouth while looking for Rin.

*PUFF*

"Hey Rin, come and lets eat some breakfast then i'll take you to hunting zombies.You need to level up so get ready."Haru said while preparing sandwiches for Rin and himself.There was no electricity so they can't use TV's or phones.Oven was limited too.When the fuel finishes it's over they can't replace it.They can change houses tho.

Rin came and they ate breakfast together while planning on what to do from now on.Rin said to Haru that he doesn't need to feel sad for things he couldn't control.Haru was now in a better mindset after spending some time with Rin and getting comforted by her.

Haru gave Rin a knife and reinforced her arms with old clothes like he did yesterday.He prepared his backpack again and equip a knife.He take the couch away and open the door's lock.Haru took a patroll on the street and when he deemed it was safe he knock the door and let Rin out.

"Haru-nii i am scared"said Rin and hold Haru's hand.It was impractical to hold hands in a place which a foe can appear and jump on them suddenly.Haru didn't mind it though.He needs to console his sister and let her muster some courage.They walked for 10 minutes the street they lived in was surprisingly empty and avaoid of zombies.

They arrived at the mall Haru went yesterday.Haru let Rin go inside and check for items she can use.

"Haru-nii this place is empty."Said Rin after looking everywhere.Haru was now on alert it seems like after he looted the mall others had came and looted the leftovers.That means that there is survivors here, it is bad and good news.No one can knew what intentions the other party have especially in apocalypse where there is no law.

"Rin we need to go."Said Haru while pointing to red blood stains which means it came from a human.Rin looked to him and nodded, they pack their things up and started to walk to another place.Haru made a stop sign with his right hand to Rin and they stopped.There was a solo zombie roaming around mindlessly.

"Rin get ready i'll occupy it and you will deliver the finishing blow."Haru said and run to the zombie with a knife on his hand.He lowered his stance and stabbed the zombie from the back with full strength.Knife got burried deep in zombie so Haru couldn't took the knife away and left armless.The situation was bad for Haru so he low kicked the zombie when it turned to Haru.Zombie's leg got twisted and it tottered.At that time Rin found a opening and stabbed the wobbled zombie from the head and crushed it's skull.

*PANT*

Sweat was dripping to the floor from both of them.Haru took the knife back from zombie and Rin got a level up.Like last time gold coins dropped from zombie but this time there was a red pill too.Haru took them and told Rin that if she is tired they can go back home.Rin was not a little kid so she keep calm and told her brother that everyting is fine.

This hunting made Haru aware of many things he didn't know before.Firstly the person killed the zombie will get all of the exp, there is no exp share like if Haru deals more damage he gets more exp.Secondly if Human A kills the zombie and forgets to loot the zombie,Human B can come and loot it.There is no such thing as killer gets the loot.Thirdly zombies can drop more than gold coins randomly.

Haru wasn't in a better mood.All of the things he learned now means everything will be harder from now on.He put a cigarette and lighted it in order to get relax.

"Haru-nii when did you start smoking?"asked Rin without any idea that Haru was smoking for years.He just kept it a secret.

"I don't know Rin but this cigarette is special i got it from a gift box.It has a relaxation effect do you want one?"asked Haru and offered her a cigarette.He knew that it is not morally okay to let her sister smoke but it is fucking apocalypse and getting relaxed with only smoking a cigarette is not a bad deal.

Rin took the cigarette and let her brother light it.She took a deep breath and puffed the smoke.

*PAH*

"This shit is dope."Rin said while looking to Haru.
