" tch hurry the fuck up,we need to get back to the base. I don't know why those dead fuck aren't around but I don't plan to stay around to find out " ordered a tall gruff man as he kicked down a smaller man who was carrying a large bag on his back causing the others in the group to laugh at this scene
" Stop hitting my daddy " exclaimed a pink haired little girl who was holding a puppy in her hand, before the man could react the little girl ran forward and bit him on his arm
Yelling painfully the man swung his free arm and slapped away the little girl, causing her to land on the ground heavily, the surroundings seemed to still as the group looked at the girl who stopped moving, as even her puppy was licking her face trying to stir her awake
The man who was kicked on the floor watched this scene in horror before he growled in anger, dropping the large bag that was on his back unto the floor, he rushed towards the surprised man and drove a punch into his jaw causing him to fall on his ass before he climbed on top of him and started punching him in the face
• BANG *
The sound of the gunshot echoed in the quiet night causing the others who were stunned to finally react and rush towards the duo pulling the now bloodied man off of their boss
The gruff man, climbed off of the ground and spit the blood that gathered in his mouth unto the floor before he gun but one of the men closest to him causing him to fall to the ground in pain as he started cursing
" You fucking waste, how could you let this little shit get pass you, now we need another bag boy " said the man angrily as he stepped on the back of the shot man who was struggling to crawl towards his daughter causing him to cough up more blood before his body finally stilled with his hand outreached
" Tch, fucking trash, but you don't need to worry, I'll take good care of your daughter " said the man as he licked his lips lewdly as he walked towards the unconscious girl. Seeing him coming close the puppy started growling at the man only to start struggling when it was picked up by the scruff of it's neck
Before the man or any off him group could react, the felt rumbling below their feet, looking around in confusion to try and locate the source
" Is it an earthquake ? " Murmured one of the men only for everyone to stumble while others fell over as something came crashing through the house next to them, before they could react debris from the now broken house came flying towards them impaling them severely as the area became filled with dust
===
Coughing heavily the gruff man painfully raised himself from the floor, touching his painful side only to recoil from the pain as he groaned, looking at his fingers he found them wet with his own blood
Glancing down at his side, face paled at he saw a large piece of wood piercing through his side, he was sure if he didn't get help soon he'd surely die. Struggling to his feet, stumbling several times in between he looked around the now recked area only to pale further as he looked at the members of his group who now had varying injuries as some of them cried out in while others were still, he wasn't sure of they were still breathing
The man froze as a shadow appeared in the corner of his eye, before he could react he found a heavy blow to his uninjured side as he felt his body lift off the floor as he flew several meters away crashing heavily into the road
Spitting up blood, the man looked around in a daze as he was now seeing stars only so feel a heavy foot rest of his chest causing more blood to overflow from his lips
As his vision cleared he came face to face with a huge man staring at him coldly, glancing down at the man he saw the little girl in the man's hand as the puppy sat by his feet
" Fuck you " spat the man as he looked angrily at the man stepping on his chest while internally he was hoping the man would be afraid of his backing " who the fuck do you think you are, when I get back to the base I'll bring everyone to kill your- " the man was interrupted mid curse as Michael applied pressure to his foot causing the man's chest to cave in as his ribs broke into fine pieces which punctured his lungs and heart before they were crushed as well
The man looked at Michael with blood shot eyes filled with anger and unwillingness as they dimmed forever
As Michael looked at the man calmly, a massive 18 wheeler drove up beside him silently as the door opened, turning his head he glanced at Alice's father who died before he frowned
" Tch, don't let him become zombie shit " said Michael to no one as he stepped into the truck cabin , after waiting for Zeke to get in as the door closed behind him
The truck turned and drove beside Alice's father's body before a ' gun ' with a elongated barrel came out only for it to release flames burning the body until hey was nothing but ash. After the gun went back in place the truck drove away silently, cutting in and out between the narrow roads dexterously for a truck of it's size while bulldozing a new path where needed

On top of the minimart, 2 figures could be seen walking back and forth as they kept watched of the surroundings, scanning the dark surroundings for any possible threat while clenching their bows
" What do you think of this ? " Asked Kawamoto as she glanced at Toshimi who glanced back at her with a questioning look
Noting her confusion, Kawamoto applied strength to her legs and jumped slightly but she ended up clearing 3 metres easily before he landed unto the floor silently showing her excellent body control
" We nearly died last week, we were also nearly turned into sex slaves but now we're practically becoming super heroes " continued Kawamoto excitedly as she gave a twirl on the edge of the roof showing her balance
" How do I feel? " Murmured Toshimi as she looked at the bow in her hand as memories of the past couple days flashed in her mind before a smile found its way unto her face
" It's been the worse days of my life " said Toshimi causing Kawamoto's expression to faulter but before she could reply Toshimi continued
" But they're also the best. Going to school with Misuzu and my other friends was fun and all but then came the struggles of real life, ' what do I wanna do when I grow up ', ' can I find a job to help support myself and my future family ' , ya know? " Asked Toshimi receiving a nod from Kawamoto
" But now everday is exhilarating, fighting for your life along with your friends like those stories, everyday waking up a little bit stronger or faster, a little bit tougher. Getting more skilled so I can be of more use to him.....I finally have a purpose. Plus those dates...." Said Toshimi before she started to blush coming on to the end
" I mean come on, he can make me feel like a princess when they're man eating zombies around " said Toshimi excitedly only to freeze when she saw Kawamoto's expression as she looked behind her
Turning around slowly, her mouth fell open in shock as she watched a huge truck manuvere true the streets dragging a long trailer as it came towards their direction. What made her panic is that whenever there was no longer any space it would drive straight through whatever building blocked it and come out unscathed
" I don't think arrows will work on that " murmured Kawamoto before she jumped off the roof to go notify the others inside

After hearing her words everyone got out of bed and rushed outside to see this montrousity only for their faces to darken as the truck shot towards them
" No truck engine in the world is good enough to pull that much weight yet reach these speeds " said Saya as she pushed her glasses up on her face
" It's also driving extremely silent, even with our enhanced senses we can barely hear it " said Saeko as she gripped her sword receiving nods from the other close range fighters
" Isn't it to close to us? " Asked Shizuka as she tilted her head causing everyone to pause
Reaching into her pocket, Yuuki took out the dead zone and to check and see if anything was wrong only for her face to darken further when she found nothing wrong
" This truck isn't affected by the dead zone " said Yuuki solemnly
" We don't have the time to find out why it's not working because that thing is nearly here " exclaimed Rei as he pointed at the truck less than 200 metres away
Reaching their weapons as the truck stopped 20metres away, only to grow nervous as the doors opened and someone stepped down causing them to freeze when they saw the person
" Did ya miss me ? " Asked Michael with a grin as he took in their expressions
