Third person POV
Not long after, once he had those snacks for food, Asato left the store via the front door. Along the way, he stared down at his phone for any signal bars, but there are no bars at all.
"Oh, man." he sighed. "I think the cell towers are down."
He then arrived at an intersection, and Asato looked at left, right, and ahead.
There are no zombies, he thought, so he went ahead instead of left or right.
Since he didn't have any signal bars, he can't browse about the latest news, especially on the zombies, on the internet.
But then, at 8:01 a.m., at an alleyway, he encountered a young man, dressed in a torn lab coat and holding a dagger, standing in his way while breathing heavily. He had grey hair and brown eyes, but he became a zombie, so he is deranged and had blood red eyes. Believing that he was a fellow survivor, Asato approached him. "Hey, are you a survivor?"
The young man turned around, bleeding in his mouth and he appeared to be hostile.
Upon seeing his hostile state, Asato stopped approaching and started to back away slowly. "Uh, sorry..."
Then, that zombified man, a scientist named Gen Shimazaki, spoke while breathing heavily, "Die..."
"Eh?"
"DIE!" Gen charged at him.
This causes Asato to turn back and run as fast as he can.
As he kept on running, Asato thought in despair, "Why did it have to be like this?"
After a few minutes of running, Asato arrived at a dead end, and he instead faced Gen, who was now going to kill him.
"Die..." Gen uttered.
"N-No way!" Asato was desperate.
But, there's no escape for him.
So, Gen charged at him and stabbed Asato in the chest, causing Asato to vomit blood.
"Die!" Gen shouted.
He then stabbed Asato 3 more times.
Asato then fell to the ground while bleeding and vomiting blood.
"No, I don't want to die," Asato thought his last thought, before closing his eyes and dying in vain.
And then, Gen bit and ate him since he is a zombie.
But, is this the end of Asato Sonoda?
