Intro ( Opening sequence; NOT the beginning, Just a trailer)
The camera pans over a sprawling green-uniform high school — manicured lawns, glass windows gleaming under the afternoon sun. Beside it stands a tall, grey apartment complex, balconies facing the schoolyard like silent spectators.
Scene 1
A narrow corridor.
Tanu Choudhary, hair tucked neatly behind her ears, peeks through a half-open classroom door. Inside, a man in a dark suit hovers inches above the ground — his feet not touching the floor. His head tilts back unnaturally, a guttural roar escaping blood-smeared lips. A woman in a pencil skirt sits frozen on the floor, scooting backward, her wide eyes locked on him.
Tanu's expression is unreadable. Without a sound, she slowly shuts the door.
Scene 2
The hallway explodes with chaos — students sprinting in every direction, their green uniforms blurring in motion.
Yang Jungwon falls hard, the air knocked from his lungs. Students and staff trample past him, too terrified to stop. He spots his phone sliding across the floor — identical to hundreds of others with the same green case. His hands shake as he grabs it, dialing a number with urgency.
"Pick up… please pick up," he whispers.
Scene 3
Suhyeok, tall and sharp-eyed, bursts into the school's massive assembly hall with his shorter friend Minjae. They slam the doors shut, chests heaving. Curtains sway in the corner, but Suhyeok knows they're not enough. He scans the room and spots a cramped storeroom. They slip inside, locking it from the inside.
Scene 4
At a small, bustling coffee shop near the school gates, Gunishka "Guddu" Verma sips her drink as the TV plays live news. A trembling female reporter speaks of an "unknown virus" spreading rapidly — her voice cracking with fear.
The sound of a scooter breaks the tension — Ushika, Guddu's best friend, pulls up. "Everyone needs to go home! Now!" she shouts.
Guddu grabs her bag. "Take me with you."
The two ride toward their apartment building — the one right next to the school.
The screen fades to black. A single word appears:
