Beginning Of The End
Chapter 7
Rin looked around, trying to find out where the scream came from. She ran ahead and a zombie stepped in her way. Len was about to charge when he noticed that Rin had sliced through it no problem.
Rin "Follow me guys! This way!"
Len followed first and was at her side, followed by the rest, that were taking out a few zombies as they hurried over.
Mikuo "Guys! Wait up! Kaiko fell!"
Rin turned around and was about to run towards them, until a child zombie came out of nowhere and jumped on Mikuo and bit his back. Miku turned around in time to see the bite.
Miku "Mikuo! No!"
She ran towards him but Rin gripped her arm and pulled her towards her.
Miku "Let me go! I have to help him!"
Rin "You can't, it's too late! He's done for!"
Mikuo dropped to the ground, and Kaiko was frozen solid by fear. She saw him open his eyes, and for a split second she was relieved, but her grabbed her leg and bit it. A blood curdling scream came from her mouth as he started feeding off of her.
Kaito "Kaiko! I'll save you!"
Kaiko "Go! Leave me! Kill us both! Hurry! Please!"
She was begging, crying, pleading him. With one look at Miku, their hearts were torn, and they both nodded. Back to back, they took aim, and fired at their siblings. The sound bounced off the walls, and the 2 ran towards the others, tears streaming their faces.
Rin "You were strong, you did what was best."
She hugged them, and Miku pushed her away.
Miku "You don't know how it feels Rin! It's not ok, I didn't do what was best! I could have saved him, I didn't! How would you feel had you lost Len!"
She dropped to the ground sobbing, and Rin was very aware of the danger they had brought. Kaito picked Miku up against her will and they ran towards the sounds of the screams. Rin kicked open a door, and saw a swarm of zombies rush towards them. She grabbed two kitchen knives and stabbed 5 of them, then rushed past 3 and stabbed 2 more. Len had hit 4 in total because he was too concerned for his sister than anything.
Len "Rin are you ok?"
Rin "I'm fine."
Len got more worried, her tone was never that cold. It was the first time she had gotten so troubled. What a time for Miku to mention that, especially after the dream she had.
Rin 'I knew the dream meant something, I should have kept my eye on them! This is my fault, I somehow provoked this, what have I done to them!'
The next thing she knew when she looked up was that she was surrounded by at least 50 undead. She smirked and took aim. She shot one knife and hit 3 of them, then she took her knife back and kept killing them left and right with little help of the others.
Rin "Guys, move in, I'll keep them distracted! Len, take control for Miku and Teto. Neru, keep them safe. Everyone, keep going! There's a lady in here, and I want to make sure that she comes out alive and well."
She then turned around to be face to face with a zombie about her height. She took the knife but it bit her shoulder. She cried out and then stabbed it multiple times in the head. She grabbed her injured shoulder, and turned to look at the rest, who were following her orders. She killed off 2 more zombies, and her breathing became erratic, so she leaned against the wall and took a break.
Len "Rin! We found the woman! She's-!"
Horror struck his eyes as he saw Rin against the wall with her eyes closed and blood pouring from her shoulder. He carefully approached her, and the closer he got, the more he noticed that her skin was extremely pale. He lifter her bangs and opened her eyes. They were blue, but such a bright blue that it was impossible to tell if she was dead or alive. She then shook and her other eye opened.
Len "Rin say something."
He waited a moment and then he heard a low moan of sorts. He was scared and took the weapon out of his pocket. She got closer, and he looked away.
Len "I'm sorry…"
Rin "For what? Can I have my weapon back?"
Len opened his eyes and looked at her amazed. She closed her right eye and winced as she touched it and held onto it, then she held out her other hand for the weapon.
Len "W-what happened to you! Why is your shoulder hurt!"
Rin "A zombie bit it, but it doesn't seem to affect me. I just feel so, different."
She took her weapon and placed it in her pocket. She then got up and held her hand out to the poor petrified Len.
Len "H-how are you not them! Rin I told you you'd get hurt! What happened!"
Rin smiled. She found it so adorable when he was ecstatic like that. She pulled him up and hugged him.
Rin "Len, if only I knew I'd tell you. But I don't. I am very glad that nothing happened to me, but on the other hand I am confused as to why I'm not dead."
She looked around and saw the others.
Rin "Come on, keep this a secret. If you see I'm starting to slow you guys down, finish me or let me die. When I'm one of them, end me. Don't hold back, just finish me. Understood?"
Len shook his head like a madman. He hugged her tightly enough for her to be uncomfortable but not yet in pain.
Len "No! Never! I couldn't, I'd rather die then let you be off like that! I can't, I really can't!"
He was crying, sobbing onto her shoulder, and she tried her best to comfort him while still minding her injured shoulder.
Rin "Len, you'll have to, Pretend I'm just another one of those things. That's what I'll be. I let 2 people die already, this would be punishment."
She hushed him before he could protest.
Rin "I can't let it slide, punishment has to be enforced."
She hugged him closely, then let him go as she walked towards the rest. The woman, who had a few bruises and a cut from her knife, was actually a very young woman, no older than twenty.
Rin "Miss, what is your name?"
The lady looked up at her timidly, frightened, then she told her very carefully, as if she had just remembered her own name.
Rin "Wait, I know you, you're the woman at my old school! You're the lady that took me to class whenever I was lost! I didn't know your first name was Kindra."
Kindra "Yes, I-I'm glad you remembered Rin."
She forced a smile to her face, and it wasn't that hard but the fear was still obvious on her features. She looked over to Len and smiled a bit more.
Kindra "Len, how good to see you! I didn't know if y-you both were still alive."
She reached into her jacket pocket and handed Rin a slip of paper. Rin looked at it curiously.
Rin "What is this?"
Kindra "It's the answer sheet you were supposed to fill out last week. I never got to give it to you."
Rin laughed and placed it in her pocket. She helped up Kindra and they started walking. So far, the way was clear. They headed up to the stairs, and were stopped by a bodyguard. Half his arm was gone and his stomach was hanging out. Rin chopped off the rest of his arm and then his head. They walked in and started walking upstairs.
Rin "I think that was the last of them, I didn't hear or see any. Nor do I sense anymore."
At that last comment Len looked at her oddly.
Len "Rin, what do you mean you don't sense them anymore?"
Rin "Ever since I woke up I felt them. Now I don't feel anymore of them. Why?"
Len "That's worrisome, what happened to you?"
Rin looked at him, and saw the concern, He was right; what DID happen to her?
