I’d like to know which one is correct?

Unless we hurry we will catch the bus, or should it be Unless we hurry we won’t catch the bus.

"Unless X, Y" means "If not X, then Y", in other words, if X doesn't happen then Y will happen. Can you work out the logic of your sentence now? By the way, there is a more direct way of saying this using the verb "miss".
