HOTDR Chapter 5: Peace from the Dead
Takashi: Nurse Shizuka. Could you check on Kiba when we get to his house?
Ms. Shizuka: Of course! I'll check on all of you to check for any fractures or wounds.
Takashi: Thank you. Alright, everyone. Let's go.
Everyone got together and began making their way to the road. Instead of just rushing into the open road, the all go on the grass and crawled to the road, being sure to keep out of sight. Takashi, Lars and Kohta peaked into the road to see that there was the undead walking towards the bridge to the left, but minimal undead to the right. It was quiet on this side of the bridge; no honking horns, not many cars for that matter. Most of the cars that made it off of Onbetsu Bridge were long gone by then. Takashi looked back to the group.
Takashi: It's clear. Let's get going.
Momosuke: Come on, everybody.
They all made it to the road and began walking down the sidewalk. Kiba led the way and Nurse Shizuka was close behind him. Saeko, Takashi and Rei were behind them and trailing them was Lars and Kohta. Momosuke and Saya were in the very back. Saya was awkwardly walking next to Momosuke, not looking at him and even trying to keep her eyes off of him from fear of him seeing. Momosuke was just the same, walking without looking in Saya's direction. It was pretty obvious that he liked her, but he has no idea of what she thinks. She's always mean to him, but then again she's mean to everyone; Takashi especially. Saya looked at Momosuke out of the corner of her eye and saw that he was focused on walking forward.
Saya (to Momosuke): Sorry…
Momosuke: What is it, Saya?
Saya: Sorry for being so mean to you. I know you were just trying to help me on the bridge. Jumping was the best option. I was scared and didn't want to jump, but my stubbornness would've gotten me killed back there.
Momosuke: I told you, I'll do what I have to to protect my friends. Even if I have to force them off of a bridge.
Saya: Friend… huh…
Momosuke: Yeah. We're all friends here. And in a time like this, we need to stick together. So no matter how mad you get at me, just know I don't want you to get hurt. That's what friends do.
Saya: Hm. Thank you… Momosuke.
Momosuke: Feel free to call me Momo. Kiba gave me that nickname back when we were kids and it kinda stuck.
Saya and Momosuke continued to walk with one another, being careful to not fall too far back from the rest of the group.
Kiba: Just a little further, guys. We're almost there.
Saeko: You've got a hot shower, right?
Rei: After what we've been through, I think everyone can use a bath. No offense.
ALL (excluding Lars): None taken.
Everyone continued walking and Saeko walked a little faster to catch up to Kiba.
Saeko: So… pretty good idea. Jumping into the water and all.
Kiba: Ah.. Thank you, Saeko-sama. *nervously scratches the back of his head* It was the only thing I could think of. Heh heh.
Saeko: It was risky, but high reward. Dangerous, but it paid off. I would have never thought to make such a high leap.
Kiba: Well that's me! High risk, high reward kind of guy! Ha ha ha!
Saeko smiled at him and continued walking forward.
Kiba (thinking): Are you serious?! That's the best I could say?! Why is it every time she talks to me, stupid shit flies out of my mouth?! And it's only her… I can talk to any other girl just fine. There's just something about her that makes me gag on my words. I gotta talk to her one on one and get to know her a little better.
Ms. Shizuka: There it is!
And she was right. There it was, the Minami Residence. Everyone stopped for a short second and looked at his house. It was a rather large house with railing and stairs leading to the front door. It was also surrounded by a high fence; a type of fence that resembles a schoolyard basketball court fence.
Takashi: Whoa… This is your place, Kiba? It's huge!
Rei: It's like a mansion…
Kiba nervously scratched the back of his head.
Kiba: No, no. It's just a regular house. Come on, guys. It's just your average 5 bedroom house.
Kohta: Geez! Five bedrooms? That's enough to house all of us.
Saeko: Let's not waste time. I'm ready to shower and eat something.
Rei: I second that motion!
Kohta: FOOODDD!
Takashi (whisper yelling): Kohta! Shh!
Kohta: Sorry! It's just… I haven't eaten in so long…
Momosuke: Then what are we waiting for? Let's go up.
Kiba: I… think I lost my key in the river.
Momosuke: No way!
Kiba pulled the key from his pocket and jingled them.
Kiba: Just kidding.
Everyone was settling in well in the magnificent home that Kiba and his sister, Rika, had inherited. Momosuke was upstairs in the master bedroom laying down on the bed while Kiba was watching TV downstairs. Kohta and Takashi were in the kitchen while Lars was outside on the balcony, staring off into the clouds. At that moment, "they" caught his attention down below. They were walking through the streets past the house in the direction of the bridge. He looked to the bridge to see that the police force was returning to the far side of the bridge, the side the group came from. They had the S.A.T. or "Special Assault Team" lined up on the bridge and ready to fend off the incoming horde. Lars ran back inside to Kiba in the living and took the remote from his hands.
Kiba: Hey!
Lars changed the channel from the anime Kiba was watching and went to the News. Just as he thought… the defense was on TV.
Kiba: Hm? The News? What's going on, Lars?
Lars: Watch.
News Anchor 1: This is Field Reporter Take Saitama reporting in with a shocking news report! It seems that the Chief of Police, Yousen Abane, had called in reinforcements! Getting the Special Assault Team involved!
Kiba (thinking): Rika!
Take Saitama: It is unsure if they called in the Sharpshooter Unit, but they definitely have the First Strike Team on the ground! They are armed with Riot Shields, heavy armor and powerful weaponry!
Kiba (calling out): Momosuke! Takashi! Kohta!
Takashi and Kohta came from the kitchen.
Takashi: What's going on?
Kiba: The News…
Momosuke came halfway down the stairs and rested his arms on the railing. He could see the TV screen clearly.
Take Saitama: It seems like the Captain of the First Strike Team will give the order to open fire soon!
Takashi (thinking): No! The noise!
Captain of the Fireteam (from a distance): Fire at will!
The shooters began opening fire on the bridge in hopes to repel the infection from crossing the bridge anymore than it has.
Take Saitama (covering his ears): There it is! There's the kill order!
Takashi, Kiba and Momosuke ran to the balcony and saw the S.A.T. opening fire.
Takashi: They shouldn't be shooting… Noise attracts them.
Momosuke: What?
Kiba: It does?
Takashi: Sorry for not telling you before. I forgot to mention that.
Momosuke: Well, shit… It would've helped a while ago… But I sorta picked up on that early.
He thought back to the girl that was missing as arm in the hall when he left Naoma in the classroom. She walked right by him and didn't notice him at all. He figured it was because he was quiet.
Momosuke: From what I can tell, they're also blind. Or maybe they only attack if they see movement.
Takashi: I got a good look at one of them in the eyes. They have to be blind. Their pupils bounce around their eye sockets with no purpose. There's no way they can see.
Kohta: But they can hear, and they can hear well.
Kohta came out onto the balcony as well with Lars.
Kohta: I noticed that when me and Saya were in the workshop where I made my makeshift nail gun rifle. I knocked over a few nails and since they were right outside the door, they were drawn to it like sharks in bloody water. Their hearing is incredible.
Kiba: Well then… From now on we need to be quiet. Minimal noise, no yelling unless we have to.
Takashi: Yeah. Last thing we need is Saya yelling and then we get swarmed.
Lars: Agreed.
Kiba: What are the girls doing anyway?
Takashi: They're all bathing upstairs.
Momosuke's eyes grew wide.
Kiba: What?! They're bathing? Meaning… They're naked?
Takashi: I'm guessing so. It's a little weird to bathe fully clothed.
They felt a gust of wind blow past them and looked around to see that Kiba was nowhere in sight. Momosuke caught a dumbfounded look on his face.
Momosuke: Really, Kiba?
Kohta: Nude girls?!
Kohta ran off behind Kiba.
Takashi: Dammit… I probably shouldn't have said that.
Lars, Takashi and Momosuke went back inside. Lars sat on the couch and Takashi and Momosuke went upstairs to find the other guys. They were about to walk past Kiba's bedroom when they heard someone call them. They took a few steps back and saw that Kiba and Kohta were in Kiba's room on the floor, looking into a wall.
Momosuke: What the hell?
Takashi and Momosuke went into his room.
Takashi: What are you two-
Kiba: Shhh!
Kohta hand motioned them to come and sit down. Kiba had his eye to the wall and on the wall was the tiniest hole; just big enough for the eye to see through. But where the hole lead… was right into the upstairs bathroom.
Kiba (whispering to himself): Awwww yeah.
He saw Nurse Shizuka and Rei getting in the bathtub together while Saeko and Saya sat down on stools and washed themselves that way.
Kohta (whispering): Dude, I wanna see!
He moved Kiba to the side and put his eye to the wall to see Saeko bending over and scrubbing her legs. He busted an instant nosebleed and fell backwards.
Momosuke (whispering): What the hell did he see?
Momosuke sat in Kohta's spot and saw put his eye to the wall. He saw Rei with Ms. Shizuka in the bathtub, splashing water on one another. He looked to the right and Saeko was still bent over, scrubbing her legs as Saya spread her legs to wash in between.
Momosuke (thinking, blushing): Oh… my… god… This… is… the… best day… of my life…
Kiba (whispering): Momosuke! My turn!
He moved Momosuke out of the way and put his eye to his wall.
Momosuke (whispering): Hey!
Kiba (whispering): Shh. Whoa there!
He saw Rei stand up and reveal her bodacious chest to Ms. Shizuka.
Ms. Shizuka: Well, Ms. Miyamoto, they've sure gotten bigger since last year.
Rei: I know, but nowhere near yours!
Ms. Shizuka: They aren't that big, are they? Ms. Busijima, Ms. Takagi. What do you think?
She stood up and turned around, showing her huge chest to the other girls, and unknowingly to Kiba.
Kiba (thinking): Holy shit.
He backed his eye away from the wall with a grin on his face. He was blushing as well.
Momosuke (whispering): Kiba! We shouldn't be doing this!
Kiba (whispering): Momo, are you kidding me? We're guys. This is what we do. Takashi, want a peak?
Takashi: No thanks. I'm not ready to die just yet.
Kohta (whispering): Well it's the apocalypse, Takashi! If I'm going to die tomorrow, I'm going to die a happy man!
Takashi (whispering): You guys can't be serious…
Momosuke (whispering): Even if it is an invasion of privacy, I think you'll like what you see.
Kiba heard the water in the restroom turning off. He looked into the hole and the girls were walking to the towel rack, covering themselves with towels.
Kiba (whispering): Dammit. Looks like Takashi missed his chance. They're putting clothes on.
Kohta (whispering): Aw man…It was fun while it lasted.
Momosuke: Come on. Let's go to another room. All of us piled up in this room next to the restroom would be odd.
Kiba: Yeah.
Everyone stood up. Kohta looked down and then back up to the others and covered his crotch with both hands.
Takashi: Hm? Kohta, the hell's the matter with you?
Kohta: Oh nothing! Nothing at all! You guys should go on without me! Ha ha ha!
Momosuke: Uh… I think that's a good idea.
Momosuke, Kiba and Takashi left the room and Kohta sat on the floor.
Kohta (thinking): Phew… That was close. If the other guys would've seen that, they'd have never let me live it down!
Momosuke went into the master bedroom and it just so happens that Saya was in the room with her towel and hair towel on. Momosuke froze in place and Saya looked back at him.
Momosuke (thinking): Oh… Shit.
Saya's eyes grew wide and she screamed at the top of her lungs. Momosuke immediately turned around.
Momosuke: I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I'm sorry!
Saya: Get out!
Momosuke: Okay!
He quickly ran out of the room and slammed the door shut. Saeko and Takashi were standing there because they heard her scream.
Takashi: What the hell happened in there?!
Momosuke: She's… changing? I think that's the word to use.
Saeko opened the door and poked her head inside.
Saeko: Takagi, you okay?
Saya: Get out!
Saeko: Ah! Okay!
Saeko quickly closed the door and turned back to the guys.
Saeko: Yeah… changing is the word. We should go.
Takashi and Momosuke: Good idea!
Everyone rushed downstairs. After a few minutes passed by, Momosuke went back to the top of the steps and sat down, facing down the stairs. He began to think a little bit about what he had witnessed today. His best friend jumping off of a bridge, a classmate getting eaten alive, limbs scattered throughout the place he use to call "school". So much blood… so much death in one place. If he didn't get out of there fast enough, he might've gone borderline insane. He put his hands on face and rested his elbows on his thighs. He did a deep inhale and released the exhale. He wiped his face and stood up, stretching as he did so. He turned around and walked to the master bedroom door that was still closed and hasn't been opened since the incident earlier. He knocked on the door twice and waited for an answer, but she didn't respond. He put his hand on the door knob and twisted it slowly. The door opened and he pushed it open far enough for him to look around. He didn't see her and walked inside, closing the door behind himself.
Momosuke: Saya? Are you in here?
Saya: Hiyaaa!
Momosuke: Gah!
Saya was hiding behind the door and charged at him with a glass picture frame. She swung the picture frame at him, but he dodged it.
Momosuke: Whoa! Hey!
Saya: Trying to peak another look at me, eh?
Momosuke: No! No! You've got it all wrong! I just want to talk!
Saya: Then talk now!
Momosuke: Good god, Takagi! Can't we talk for five minutes without you trying to kill me?!
She lowered the picture frame and stood in front of Momosuke. She walked over to the bed and set the picture back on the nightstand. It was a picture of Rika and Kiba together.
Momosuke: Phew…
Saya sat on the bed indian style and Momosuke sat on the bed as well.
Saya: So. What did you want to talk about?
Momosuke: Straight forward, huh? Well… okay. I wanted to talk about… A few things.
Saya: Like what?
Momosuke: Well first off, the school. I'm just glad that we all made it out of there in one piece.
Saya: I suppose it was very lucky that none of us were hurt. It would suck to have someone that is severely hurt in a place like this.
Momosuke: To avoid that, I'm willing to go to any lengths. I would put my life on the line for anyone here… Especially you, Takagi.
Saya: Huh? You don't mean that.
Momosuke: I do. Ever since we bumped into each other that day in the gym.
Saya thought back to being knocked over by him in the gym that one day months ago.
Saya: What do you mean… You're not making any sense.
Momosuke: Hm… Ever since I was a kid, I never had a really good relationship with my parents, especially with my dad. He would always yell at me for the dumbest things… for just playing and being a kid, it seemed that being too happy pissed him off. I hated him… but then he died in a plane crash.
Saya's eyes opened wide.
Momosuke: My mom was devastated… She cried every night for 3 months before she started to get over it. Everyday, I wished he was dead. And when it finally happened… I wished it hadn't. I never want to see my mom so sad again. I never want to see anyone I care about in tears or in pain.
Saya (thinking): Momo..suke…
Momosuke: Now my mom travels all over the world working. Every time she gets on a plane, I worry. I worry that she'll end up like dad. I don't know if it's just my brain making me think the worst or if I am just a downer all together. But I do know that I won't ever let anything happen to you. You're way too important to me.
Saya: Do you mean that?
Momosuke: Hm? Mean what?
Saya: That I'm important to you?
Momosuke thought for a second. Her whole attitude had changed and now she was actually… listening.
Momosuke: Yes. You are very important to me.
Saya: No one… No one has ever said that to me before besides my mom. Not even my dad has said that before.
Momosuke (thinking): Hm… Her dad must be a jerk like mine was.
Saya: Thank you, Momosuke.
Momosuke: I told you already, Saya. Call me Momo.
Saya: Okay… Momo.
She smiled at him and he smiled at her. Momosuke had his hand on the bed and Saya put her hand on top of his. Momosuke looked at their hands and then back at her. She was looking at him with very seductive eyes. She took off her glasses and laid them on the bed. She began inching closer and closer to Momosuke's face. Momosuke then began to lean towards her as well. But just as they were a few inches apart, someone knocked on the door.
Saya: Grrr! Dammit! Someone always interrupting when I'm doing something! We were having a moment and they were rude enough to ruin it!
Momosuke: Saya-
Saya: I'll kick their ass!
She stomped over to the door and opened it.
Kohta: Uh… Hey, Takagi. Dinner's re- gah!
She punched him on the top of the head, causing Kohta's face to plant against the carpet.
Kohta (dazed): I was… only telling you we made food.. *faints*
Momosuke: Wow. Did you have to hit him so hard?
Momosuke had walked from the bed and walked over to Saya.
Saya: He interrupted our talk!
Momosuke: It's okay. We can take this room tonight.
Saya: Huh?
Momosuke: I'm sure Kiba wouldn't mind.
A few minutes later, Momosuke had gone downstairs and asked Kiba for the favor.
Kiba: No way.
Momosuke: What?! Come on, Kiba! Just for tonight!
Kiba: No.
Momosuke: But why not?!
Kiba: Because "I" want the master room.
Momosuke: Dude! It's just gonna be you sleeping in a king sized bed! Do me this favor! Once?!
Kiba: Eh… Lemme think about- no.
Momosuke: I hate you.
Kiba: Tough turkey. I want to sleep in the king bed tonight, bro-man.
Momosuke: You are such an asshat!
Kiba: Oh yeah, keep it up. Name calling is definitely going to work.
Saya: How about this!
She threw her shoe at him and it smacked him on the forehead, causing him to fall over. She jumped on top of Kiba, grabbed him by the shirt, picked up her shoe with the free hand, and began shaking him while holding the shoe over him.
Saya: Do I need to leave several shoe prints on your forehead?
Kiba (swirl eyes): No no, take the room.
Saya: Thank you.
She stood up and let go of Kiba's shirt, letting him flop against the floor. Saeko was standing in the kitchen wearing an apron that completely revealed her backside. Kiba and Takashi tried not to stare so hard. Lars was standing outside on the balcony again, staring up at the stars and sky and wondering what it was like out there. Rei saw him standing out there and decided to go approach him.
Rei: Hey, Lars. We all pitched in and made dinner. Would you like to try it?
Lars: I'm okay. Thank you.
Rei: Oh, come on. You haven't eaten since lunch at school. You've gotta be hungry.
Lars: I'll eat later. I'm just… not hungry right now.
Rei: Hm… Okay… Suit yourself.
She closed the sliding glass door and went to the kitchen to eat. They had made sticky rice, dried beef teriyaki, steamed cabbage and fish with a side of sushi that Kiba handmade. Enough for everyone to have a full plate.
Takashi: Whoa! This is great stuff! Who made the fish?
Saeko: That would be me, Takashi.
Takashi: It's fantastic!
Saeko: Thank you very much.
Momosuke: The teriyaki is delicious.
Kiba (mocking): The teriyaki is delicious! Bleh.
Momosuke: What, Kiba?
Kiba: I didn't say anything.
Momosuke: Oh. Okay then.
Kiba (mocking): Eh. Okeh den.
Momosuke looked at Kiba with a blank expression.
Kiba: What? I'm just eating my food that the ladies so generously made.
Momosuke looked away while squinting his eyes.
Kiba (mumbling): Bitch.
He was hit in the face by a clump of sticky rice. He looked at Momosuke who was casually drinking his cup of juice.
Kiba: Did you just-?!
Momosuke: Nope. Wasn't me.
Takashi: Alright, alright. Knock it off, ladies. We should decide on rooms.
Kiba: Master room!
Saya looked at him with fire in her eyes.
Kiba: Never mind…
Ms. Shizuka: Oh! Me, Ms. Miyamoto and Ms. Busijima could room together.
Kiba: And… Kiba?
Takashi: Probably not. You can bunk with Kohta or Lars.
Kiba: Whoa! Did everyone forget that we're in my house right now? MY house?!
Momosuke: No… It's Rika's house.
Kiba: What the fuck ever.
Takashi: So it's settled? I get my own room, Momosuke and Takagi get the master room, Rei, Saeko and Shizuka-sensei-
Kiba: And Kiba.
Rei: Not a chance.
Takashi: And Lars and Kohta get their own room. Unless Kiba wanted to bunk with either of them?
Kiba: Well shit! Why does everyone get a room?! Why can't Kohta get his own space on the couch!?
Kohta: Because I get chronic back pains if i sleep uncomfortably.
Kiba: So what?! I nearly shattered my spine and ribcage jumping off the bridge!
Takashi: Kohta is our best shot. We need him to be on his A-game. So you can sleep with him in the same bed.
Kiba: Why can't we share a room Takashi?
Takashi: Hell no! Sleeping with another guy? In bed?! You're outta your mind!
Kiba: Well how do you think I feel then!?
Kohta: I don't mind if you sleep in the same bed as me, Kiba.
Kiba: Uh… Probably not. I'll take my chances on the couch.
Takashi: Then it's settled!
Kiba: No wait!
The moonlight illuminated the dark house through the window blinds and made everything a light blue color. Kiba was sleeping on the living room couch when he woke up from a bad dream he was having. He wrapped himself in the covers and began walking around the house in complete darkness. He went up the stairs slowly and went to the left bedroom, Saya and Momosuke's room. Without knocking, he entered the room and turned the light on.
Momosuke (waking up): Huh? Dude, what are you doing? It's 3 in the morning.
Kiba: Can I sleep in here with you guys? I had a bad dream.
Momosuke: Really?
Saya: Who is it? Kiba? Kiba...
Kiba: Ah, damn.
She punched him in the face and sent him sliding across the carpet and back out into the hall; she closed the door behind him. He stood up with his blanket and wrapped himself up again. He went to the room that was next to theirs and knocked on it gently. After a few seconds, Rei came to the door and opened it wide enough to poke her head through.
Kiba: Can I sleep with you guys? I had a bad dream.
Rei: Uh… I don't think that's a good idea.
Kiba: But why not?
Rei: Because Shizuka is naked and Saeko is barely wearing clothes.
Kiba: That's okay! Even more of a reason for me to go in, right?
Rei: Hm… no.
She slowly closed the door on him. He went to the room that was a little ways down the hall and knocked on the door. After a few seconds, Takashi answered the door; he was in his boxers and school shirt.
Takashi (yawning): Yeah?
Kiba: Can I sleep in there with you? I had a nightmare.
Takashi: Kiba, it's late. It's like 3 in the morning.
Kiba: Yeah… But I'm tired and I need to sleep with someone tonight.
Takashi: Well, sure. But I'm not putting my pants back on.
Kiba: Uh… never mind then.
Kiba closed the door for him and walked a little ways down the hall and on the same wall was another door. He knocked on it and almost immediately, Lars answered. He cracked the door open far enough to see his right eye and that was it.
Kiba: Hey Lars. Do you mind if I room with you, man? I had a nightmare and-
Lars closed the door on him, completely cutting him off. Kiba looked shocked at how he was cut off mid-sentence. He turned around and the last room… had to be Kohta's. He hesitated before knocking, but went through with it anyway. After he knocked, a few seconds later, Kohta answered. He was rubbing his eyes under his glasses.
Kohta: Kiba? What's going on man? Sorta late, don't you think?
Kiba: Yeah… Sorry about that. i was wondering…
Kohta's face began to light up with excitement.
Kiba: If uh…
Kohta looked right into his eyes and began breathing heavily.
Kiba: If… I could… bunk? With you…?
Kohta: Of course! Come on in!
He fully opened the door and saw that Kohta had made a pillow fort on the floor with 6 pillows and a sheet he found.
Kohta: I can take the fort. I don't want the bed.
Kiba: What?! Then why didn't you let me take the room in the first place?!
Kohta: Because I like having my own space. But if you want, you can join me.
Kiba: I'll pass. I'm going back to the living room.
Kohta grabbed him by the shirt and pulled him into the room and closed the door behind him.
Kiba: What the hell, Kohta!
Kohta: Shh… Look.
He pointed to the window. Kiba went to the window and looked out onto the road. He saw even more of "them" then before. Much more crowded the streets and wandered along the road.
Kohta: They don't seem like they know we're here… But we should definitely keep it down for the duration of our stay.
Kiba: Yeah… Last thing I want is to lose my house.
END CHAPTER 5
NEXT TIME ON HOTDR
Kiba: NOT FUCKING FAIR!
Momosuke: Kiba-
Kiba: Nope.
Momosuke: Bro, come on.
Kiba: Nope.
Rei: Really? You're being a baby.
Kiba: Nope.
Momosuke: Ah, just leave him alone. He'll get over it… eventually.
Kiba: Nope.
Saeko: We shouldn't stay here much longer. The city is dangerous.
Takashi: She's right. After a few days, when everyone's rested, we should hit the road.
Saya: We should head to the countryside or maybe an island. Somewhere they can't get to.
Kiba: Nope.
ALL: Kiba!
Kiba: Nope.
Momosuke: He's just being stubborn because everyone got a room and he didn't.
Ms. Shizuka: I don't know if I like the idea of leaving… Sure the city is dangerous, but what about everywhere else.
Takashi: That's something we're gonna have to risk.
Kohta: Whatever is out there, we'll tackle it head on.
Saeko: We can't stay here, that's for sure.
Rei: Next time on Highschool of the Dead Revamped!
ALL (excluding Kiba): A Stranger in Need!
Kohta: Well, I found out what the leap was, but who's the stranger?
Takashi: I… don't know actually.
Rei: I hope it's not a serial killer or something.
Momosuke: A serial killer? Seriously?
Rei: It's possible…
Kiba: Nope.
