Priorities

Alex had fully lost control of his powers just a few seconds after he unleashed 10 percent of his flames. The scorching flames had fully covered his body that not even the cameras the drones use could find his body inside the flames. His skin is slowly being burnt by the flames that he had produced.

He is now a human covered in flames, The way he strive to survive in that scorching flame isn't something that everyone who is watching could explain. They are fascinated at the same time they were terrified just to what those flames could bring to them.

The attention wasn't all focus on Alex of course, there is also people who had their jaws dropped as they saw Quinn use his blood skills. Quinn creating those magnificent red lines which pushed off the zombies to the edge had made things even more cool.

Deep inside, Quinn wasn't actually focused on the zombies but rather, his attention is fixated on Alex who is covered in fire. He can't decide whether he should help Alex first or deal with the zombies but the thing on his mind is if he starts helping Alex, the zombies would just start attacking him without him noticing.

"Alex, Please wait for a few minutes. I would seriously help you right now if only this zombies weren't this many. And how the fuck did they become so many anyway!" Quinn complained

Alex may be covered in fire but he remains conscious. He endures the hot feeling he is having and still tries to move inch by inch despite his body being consumed by his very own monstrous flame. He heard what Quinn had said, he is not hoping for any help to come save him but he moves his body towards where the growling is coming from and sure enough, his flames started rampaging burning the zombies on the way.

"Dude, Don't die! I seriously don't want to die dude so don't die like I need your body as a vessel for me to continue living so please don't die!" Owen said with his trembling voice.

'I.. I cant control it, I think my life's ending here. Sorry Owen, I really can't do anything with my flames.'

In a moving car not far from the city of plants, Matsumoto and Danica were inside as they were worried by the horrifying scene Alex's flames made. They immediately left the moment they saw what has become of Alex and Owen. They have working theories as to what happened but they don't want to make it their conclusions just yet.

"How is a blow-up type fire extinguisher going to help Alex dad?" Danica asked

"I don't know but I still hope that at least one of the things we've brought with us will help." Matsumoto replied

'I hope Owen's fine.' Danica thought

Back to the city of plants, The beast princess with her reinforcements were frozen on their spots as they saw the broadcast where Alex suddenly got covered by his own flames. They didn't expect that someone they don't even know before could make a whole country terrified and fascinated by his skills.

"Why does he move so slow?" Lyrr muttered

"I don't know but I'm sure that those flames are hurting him. I wonder if it also hurts the other one." Jonas said

"What a terrible path that guy had walked through." Lyrr said

The beast princess's team are now fully equipped with the situation and their plan was to deal with those near on the border. They walked out of their carrier plane and started cocking their guns, they walked out with 2 hyena's following them from behind.

Lyrr started holds onto Jonas and they blasted off to the distance as well as the other members of her team. They flew off to the sides of the city of plants as they are following the trails of what several rumors had said, cause if at least one of those were right, then they would be one step ahead of Alex and Owen's plan.

As their feet reached the ground, They went onto the action inspecting every area. Sure enough, they immediately witnessed a civilian being feasted on by hungry zombies.

Lyrr immediately commands her hyenas to attack the zombies to save the person but as the hyenas got the zombies off the person, it was already too late. It could be seen on her face how she was turning into a zombie similar to those that just bit her.

"I'm sorry." Jonas said as he swung his sword decapitating the lady.

"She's a zombie not a human, we don't have to hesitate with killing them." Lyrr said

"Easy for you to say that." Jonas replied

"Our job as hunters is to kill monsters sent by gods or monsters made by humans so protecting the lives of others is the last of our priorities." Lyrr said as slammed a zombies head on to the wall.

Ignoring what Lyrr just said, Jonas started swinging his sword to the heads of those running zombies. The walking zombies are the least of his problems right now so he focuses on the ones who might cause him trouble. He slides to the ground like he's on some fps video game, he swung his sword without a second thought but the idea of killing a human who is turning to a zombie still hasn't left his mind.

Lyrr who's been killing three at once, has had her focus fixated on Jonas whose mind seems to be flying somewhere else. She doesn't know how to cheer people up but she is sure that what she said is 100 percent true. She just didn't bother talking to Jonas because she felt like it might make Jonas's mind more clouded.

Jonas swung his sword but he fell on the wrong foot throwing him off balance; He almost fell to the zombie's arm but thanks to Lyrr's hyena, the zombie was smacked to the ground stopping it from biting Jonas.

"Getting rusty?"
