Day 6 - Infected Population: 92%
Time: 7:32 PM

"Once upon a time there was life in this place. A place where someone could live their life the way they wanted to. But it's gone...All of it is gone. And it's because of one virus. One virus, millions of people, five days...And the cause of it...Me."

On top of the empire state building was someone sitting down against the building. The person doing this was a seventeen year old male with Black emo-like hair, Brown eyes, Silver ringed earrings, and wore a Blue hoodie with his hood down, Grey shirt, Dark Blue jeans, and Brown army boots while a part of his chest glowed a Dark Red 'J'-like shape. While sitting there, he watches the entire city before him burning in flames while gunfire in the distance were bring shot off.

"I've lost everything because of what's happening before me. All that was left of who I once was...I always lived a troubled life, a time where I was always in the wrong crowd or in the times I fought. I'd give anything to have those times back...Because it was all I could hang onto as just...A human."

While staring out in the distance, he takes something out from within one of his pockets; A set of Red broken prescribed glasses. He kept his stare at it for the longest amount of time until a helicopter started coming towards him. "It's him! Firing at will!" Upon command, they started shooting multiple bullets at him, to which he quickly put his hood on and glasses up so he could quickly run for cover against one of the walls. To get him out of hiding, they shot out a missile to destroy part of the building, sending him flying away from the building. Reacting quickly, he flipped, dashed, and glide onto one of the walls and began to run on them while Black tendrils swished around his boots. He kept running while bullets flied around toward him until he got up to a certain point, and jumped off to get toward the flying aircraft to grab it by the side. "Oh my god! He's on it! Someone shoot him off!"

"Gotcha!" One of the soldiers said, with three of them opening the side and started shooting at him with assault rifles, to which he quickly dodged as fast as by leaping toward one of them and punched him to the point where he was out cold. "He's in! Open fire!" The last two then started shooting at him, hitting his body before the head, and doing so knocked him down. "I-Is he..." They both look at him and observe the teenager until he slowly begun to get up, with the Black ooze-like substance covering where he was shot. "O-Oh my god! He's still aliv-" He was silence by the Black haired one stabbing him after he formed his arms into claws was made of the same Black substance, but was holding Glowing Dark Red veins. Doing this silenced him, even after the mysterious boy took it out and slashed him in half.

He looks over to the final soldier just grabbed him and put his head over to the blades of the helicopter, disconnecting and destroying the head, then rid of the remains by throwing it away. Afterwards, he jumped out to stab the four-fingers made of blades into the side and climbs over to the cockpit and breaks the door open by grabbing it and throwing it away. "N-No! NO WAIT A-" The pilot didn't get to say anything else since he was grabbed and thrown out. But in doing so, the chopper was starting to go out of control since nobody was flying it. He looks around and sees an army of soldiers shooting at many sinister-looking beasts under him, then jumps out while forming his forearms into large fists that hold the colored veins. He puts them first ahead of him and uses them as a means to land, causing a large blast of rocks and remains of the street to knock back any of the humanoid figures.

After landing, the teenager slowly got up while forming his arms into something else; A large blade that covered his elbow and forearm with the substance and Red glow. Using this new weapon he crafted, he looks over to the beasts, which were on four hands, Reddish, and held a large set of teeth. Without a single bit of hesitation, they leaped toward him, to which he quickly reacted by spinning around for the large weapon to hit all sides, sending some of them back either with their heads cut off or having wounds on their body yet still alive. Without a second though, he leaps toward one of them and stabs it in the chest quickly then covered it in tendrils to do something rather strange; He absorbs it into him, consuming it inside him. Once dealing with it, he looks at the last two.

"Everything was taken from me...The life I once had...Someone who was always right...My only family...GONE!"

In a large fit of rage, he runs toward the other two while having the large blade creating sparks by being drug onto the ground and yelling in anger. Without holding anything back, he leaps and slashes one of their arms off, then changes his arm into a a whip-like weapon with a claw on it, which too holds the Red glowing, to stab it into one of their heads, then yanked it off to kill it. Now all that remained was the very last one, to which he uses the whip to stab it into one of the Brawlers and yanked it down onto the ground, with him then changing it back to the Blade to finish it off by slamming it down, cutting it into two halves and killing it.

Once finishing it off, he turned it back to normal and quickly ran down the streets, filled with civilians that were infected and looked much like a zombie. While running, multiple soldiers started shooting at him with bullets and, also in the distance, tanks that were shooting off missiles. One of them hit to where he was, covering where he once stood in dust before he came out running while wearing a set of Black full-body armor with the Blade still on. He sliced as many infected and soldiers as fast as he could until he got over to the tank and jumped on top of it to grab something after turning his arms back to normal. which shows he holds clawed gauntlets; A Gatling Gun that was attached to the tank, then yanked it off to shoot down multiple helicopters and/or soldiers and infected as fast as possible. After doing this, he threw it away and changed his forearms once more into the large fists so he could smash it, having it explode in his face, which could have harmed him but didn't suffer any due to the armor he wore.

From that moment, multiple choppers then came by, showing someone called in reinforcements. He would have dealt with them first, but multiple infected started to attack him, to which he resorted by changing his large fists into the Claws, then started to slash them quickly to easily deal with them as fast as he possibly could. However, it started to overcome him with the multitasking while his armor started to break. Out of desperation, he starts gripping his chest painfully and yelling to prove this, but did this to shoot out multiple sharp tendrils around him, taking out all of the infected and choppers from where they were.

After everything was cleared, the teenager then rid of the armors and weapons he formed his arms into and was about to walk away from where he was until he hwar a muffled yell for help, making him look and discover the source was a soldiers like the ones he was fighting; Their clothing was Black And Dark Blue body suits with it also having a hood on them, a gas mask that holds two Blue eyes that glowed, Black boots and gloves, and Brown and Silver armor pieces on the body. What makes this one different from the others was that his legs and arm is broken and bleeding.

Seeing the one lying down made him immediately know on who it is and where he came from, with him slowly walking to him and picking him up by the head. "...Blackwatch soldier...Causing me more trouble, huh?"

"P-Please! Let me go!"

"...Don't fucking count on it." He forms one of his arms into the Claws and prepares it. "...Now TELL me or you'll end up like everyone else here! Where were the Jacobs family taken to?! Don't lie to me!"

"I don't know! I swear!"

The boy prepares his claws and aims it toward his broken arm. "Remember who you're dealing with, because I'm not in the mood to be nice." He takes it back and swings it to separate the arm by the elbow, making the soldier of Blackwatch scream in pain. "...Got it? Now I'm going to ask you again; Where. Are. THEY?!"

"I swear to you! I don't know! I was just on patrol to suppress and kill the infected! Honest! T-There's no way I'd lie to you after what you just did! P-Please stop!"

He just stares at him coldly with his Brown eyes, then grasps his head. "...If you end up lying, I'll kill you...And you'll be a part of me. Got it?" He nods quickly, with the Black haired teenager forming his arm back to normal. "...Good." Afterwards, he throws him away to make him land harshly, then runs up a building to get a look around the area before running off.

Time Square
Time: 9:10

After sprinting around the city for a while, doing what he did previously, he lands on top of one of the rundown buildings that was covered by small tendrils to look around, but saw nothing from the sight. Knowing he hasn't gone anywhere in his search, he sighs and takes out the broken glasses to stare at them. "I swear to you...And them, that I'll make it right...After everything and what I caused." He looks at it more and begins to look back on what all has happened in the past; Five days ago.
