Hi guys, just saying the lastest of the lastest bits are un-betaed, I'll update it later. :3 Enjoy~!
This, is going to be a long night.
The sane group of remaining humans ran subtly into a forgotten storeroom, in a deep and dank corner of the Headquarters.
Closing the door quietly behind him, Allen turned to glance out the glass panel at the top half of the doors. Kanda jumped to stand on Bookman's shoulders and Lavi hung from Allen's arms to see outside. Their eyes darted from the left to the right, watching the savage beasts swarm around the corridors.
The remaining Scientists sat themselves against crates next to the wall, panting and wiping the sweat from their foreheads. Lenalee sank down to the floor in exhaustion from all the running. The little girl with the worst physical stamina was to be found flat on the ground, all dignity thrown aside despite her wearing a dress. Her ears were limp against her skull and her tail lay unmoving on the ground between her legs. She was barely breathing as it was too tiring a task.
"Is this another enemy attack?!" Link speculated, his face full of seriousness, as per usual.
"No…how should we put this…" The scientists muttered quietly, their instinct pointing them to the most plausible criminal.
"We have a feeling it has something to do with a Chinese man with glasses…" Reever muttered on.
Allen turned, throwing the two kids off his arms and went to the crates to rest for a little. The two boys followed him. He blinked at the unmoving lump of flesh on the ground and didn't know whether to be worried or amused. He reached over and gathered the dying girl into his arms and held her in a gentle embrace.
"Arrgh…" The girl moaned, her body ached to the point that she wished she could amputate everything.
"It's going to be ok, Dem. I'll protect you~" Allen whispered so only the girl could hear.
"GET AWAY FROM ME YOU PEDOPHELIC CREEP. YOU ARE DISGUSTING DON'T YOU Touch… me…" The girl ran out of energy to scream and no one paid much attention to her. Mostly because the description she gave did not fit with the always gentlemanly Allen at all.
"Once you get bitten, the infection will spread to the rest of your body from the wound. Be careful."
"Infection?" Kanda repeated.
"How do you know that?" Allen asked.
"Because I created the virus."
…
…
Allen and Kanda turned around. There, in between two crates hiding in the darkness, was the criminal.
Komui Lee.
"SECURE HIM!" Reever bounded up in an instance. He pointed a commanding finger at the Chinese man. However, the others acted before his command. Most of the males tackled the Supervisor, tying him up with an iron chain. Allen dumped the little girl in his arms to Lenalee before strangling Komui in a vice-like grip.
Lenalee, holding Desdemona, and Link stood to the side, watching the events like a drama unfolding.
The storm beat against the tall tower mercilessly. Lightning and thunder struck against the cliff. Harsh winds whipped in all directions, ripping leaves from branches and throwing small rocks and sand.
Komui pushed his glasses up with a hand. "Are you saying this is my fault? How could that be?!"
The ones who attacked the Supervisor would be found tied to a large crate using the same iron chain. Various swollen spheres sat on their heads. The crate behind them was filled with circular holes the size of bullets and expressions of trauma were seen on all their faces.
"Is that how you think of me?! Fine then, Komurin EX, shoot them!" Komui commanded.
The large robot, made in the appearance of Komui, stepped forward. It held a machine gun, produced from its own abdomen.
"You already did!" Kanda spat.
"So…strong…" Allen forced out. He was the most injured out of the group.
"IT'S ONLY NATURAL WE'D SUSPECT YOU CONSIDERING THIS IS WHAT YOU DO FOR A LIVING!" Reever exclaimed angrily.
Lenalee set the little girl aside. She ran to the robot and shook it violently. "Nya! Nya nyaa nyaaa~!"
Komui snapped his head around. "Nya?"
Instantly, all of Komurin's weapons were unsheathed and pointed at the tied group. "What did you do to my Lenalee…"
"Th-that's too hard to explain…" Johnny stuttered.
"More importantly! What are you going to do about this infection?!" Reever glared at Komui.
"That's right!" Allen chimed.
Komui pushed his glasses up again, though they don't appear to be sliding. "I should be the one asking you that. Reever, weren't you the one who confiscated it from me and hid it?!"
Reever frowned and shook his head. "I'm sorry. I confiscated too many of those from you. I don't remember which…"
Komui pouted. "You know, that time when I worked all night and…"
"Ah!" Reever suddenly remembered. "The KomuVita-D!"
"It's that medicine that cures away all our tiredness so we can keep working, you said." The nameless Scientist recalled.
"It's so powerful that it cures away all reason and logic too, you said." Johnny nodded.
"It's was a completely useless treatment for the Overtime Zombie Syndrome…" Added Reever.
Komui pushed his glasses up again. "Let's not worry about what it does. This is totally ruining our moving plans!" He cleared his throat. "This infection can be stopped with the right antibody! There should be an infection source. That is, the first person to be infected with the KomuVita-D virus. The antibody can only be made from that person's blood sample!"
"EH?! DIDN'T YOU MAKE THE ANTIBODY?!"
Komui pointed a high and mighty finger towards the ceiling. "Ladies and gentlemen! Find this source as soon as possible so we can continue our moving preparations!"
The group sneaked stealthily through the corridors, barely attracting the attention of any of the infected ones. They reached a large window. Allen and Reever, who were in the lead, pressed their backs against the wall and carefully peeked out the window, the infected ones were everywhere.
Desdemona was right by Allen's side, despite her constant claims that the man is paedophilic. Unknowingly, somehow her hand found its way into his. He held her small had tightly in reassurance.
Somewhere in her mind, there flashed past a moment when Chase used to hold her hand so warmly, so securely like this. When Cosmo gives them a hard time, he always held her hand like this behind his back…She shook her head.
Johnny held onto Allen's shoulder and Bookman stood right in front of the window. Because of the Bookman's height, he was safe from view…However, his upright, tall rabbit ears were another case all together.
"They're all over the place." Reever commented. "We might be the only survivors."
"They're not dead."Komui whispered.
"Chief?" Johnny asked, "How do you know where the source of infection is?"
"How?" Komui touched his chin. "I guess it's sixth sense or something?"
"Or something?!" Reever glared back at the Supervisor. "Are you telling me it's guessing?"
Desdemona pursed her lips. What time is it? Is she about to change back? How inconvenient, at this rate, if she can't get her hands on some clothes she will…be naked when she changes back. She started panicking. What to do, what to do…
Allen's large, warm hand tightened itself around hers. She glanced up to check on him. His face looked sickly, he was sweating a lot and he clenched his chest with his other hand.
"Allen?"
The male didn't reply. Could it be…I was bitten by the Head Nurse before…
"Allen? What's wrong with you?" Desdemona kept asking.
Allen glanced down at her, still sweating a lot.
The girl widened her eyes. "You…you were bitten weren't you?"
Johnny poked his head over. "Allen are you ok?"
Allen released the girl's hand and huddled himself up in a corner. "No-no way, my pride won't allow me to become of those drooling savages!"
Johnny sighed. "You're a proud gentleman, after all…"
"Tch." Desdemona pouted. "Proud gentleman…to hell."
Johnny patted Allen's head. "Don't worry, we can cure you once we get the antibody."
"I wonder…"
Allen and Johnny turned to glance at Desdemona. But she was looking out the window. "Dem, did you say something?" Allen reached over and took her hand in his again. She accepted like second nature. "No."
Suddenly, a large shadow blocked the moon light from the window that the girl was looking out from. Allen turned around quickly and to the sight of saliva-soaked teeth. Swiftly, Allen pushed the girl away and activated his Innocence. He drew his sword and blindly blocked an attack.
Allen skid back as the enemy pushed on the large sword with a strength Allen never expected. The walls shattered and glass was sprayed across the floor. The white-haired exorcist glanced up and froze.
"EHHH?!" Everyone exclaimed. "General Sokaro?!"
Indeed, the General stood before them, teeth sharp and dripping with drool. His eyes hollow but deadly, as deadly as the Innocence he wields in his hand. However, the most deadly part was not his strength or his weapon, but the fact that he is naked.
"You won't escape me, my prey~!" He laughed.
"WHAHHAHAHAHAHHAAAA~!"
The group turned behind them at the sound of agonised screams. They froze and were traumatised once again.
In the hind, General Tiedoll sank his artistic teeth into Link's neck. General Klaud bit a madly bleeding Bookman…from his nose, that is.
The generals were all naked.
"OLD MAN!" Kanda pointed an accusing finger at General Tiedoll.
"HOLY-MY GOD MASTER PUT SOME CLOTHES ON!" Desdemona screamed whilst pointing at General Klaud.
Pya~cha!
Allen turned back to the front, General Sokaro was spinning his Innocence overhead, ready for another strike. Allen pushed the screaming little girl behind him and Johnny placed his hands on the girl's shoulder, also standing behind Allen.
Allen prepared his sword for the strike, but hesitated as he saw green electric sparks fly out from the weapon. "Hey, Dem, isn't that the same as your Innocence?"
"It's not. General Sokaro's is static electricity. Mine is thunder." She said as-a-matter-of-fact-ly.
"That's the same thing!" Allen argued.
"SHUT UP AND FIGHT ALREADY!"
Within the blink of an eye, the three Generals attacked simultaneously. The ground sank from behind, through the impact of the two giants: General Tiedoll's Innocence Giant and the giant Lau. Allen blocked General Sokaro's weapon but was struggling immensely. Johnny pulled Desdemona away from the fights.
"At this rate we'll all be killed!" Reever cried.
"Do something, Komurin EX!" Komui shouted.
"Roger!" The robot responded. It opened his chest compartment and impressive-looking missiles aimed themselves at the Generals. "FIRE~!"
The missiles left their compartments and the rest of the group froze as they saw the target of those missiles.
Allen turned around at the fizzing sound, to be greeted by many missiles smiling at him.
BOOM!
A puff of smoke emerged from the base of this tall, tall tower that stood for more than thousands of years. Black missiles escaped into the sky. The dark, grim, stormy sky was lit up beautifully by a dozen of bright yellow fireworks.
Allen collapsed onto the ground from the impact. He felt his consciousness slipping. "Komui…will you stop it…"
The world darkened around him.
The aid of the new Ark has made his work all the much easier. The girl wasn't easy to track after all. She leaves no clues.
Huh.
He smiled, but no matter where she is hiding in this world, he will find her. He has many akumas under his command, they conceal themselves in many cities of Europe. If any of them spots an Eurasian girl around the age of 16, then he should know immediately.
Finding her is his duty and obligation, not only for the Earl, but for Bidelia and himself.
The young man paced through the empty streets of a town. There was a thunder storm and it was raining very heavily. The man looked up to the sky and was surprised to see what he saw.
What were those yellow fireworks inside those storm clouds?
Allen woke with a start, greeted by two tiny hands covering his mouth to prevent him from screaming.
"SHHHHHH!" Lavi and Kanda scowled at either side of the English. Johnny was holding his finger to his lips.
Allen calmed down and took in his surroundings. They were in another storage room, cardboard boxes and crates were stacked everywhere. It appears they have reached a safe place.
"You were really out cold, Allen. It was hard carrying you with this body, you know." Lavi shrugged his shoulders.
"What about everyone else?" Allen asked.
"We were separated in the explosion, so it's just the 6 of us." Johnny said.
"6?" Allen questioned. He scanned the room, there's Kanda, Lavi, Johnny and…and a huddled pile in a deep and dark corner. The robot wept…how is that even possible.
"I couldn't protect my master…I'm a piece of junk." Komurin rocked back and forth in depression as it hugged its legs.
What a piece of junk…The human males thought in unison.
"Wait, Johnny. There's only 5." Allen turned back to the Scientist.
"Ah, you see. She-" Johnny began but was interrupted by the sound of a gun loading.
Ka-chak!
The human males turned to the sound, the robot wept.
From between two tall crates, a figure emerged. When she stepped into the light, the human males blushed in embarrassment.
Desdemona tied her hair into a ponytail as she stepped out of her make-shift change room. She finally returned to her normal form and luckily, she ducked into her room and grabbed some clothes before coming into hiding. However, the amount of clothing she retrieved was limited. She brought with her a set of underwear and a shirt. Her coat, pants and boots were all still in the public laboratory, and so was Thora.
So she had to wear what she had.
She flicked her tail and perked up her ears. She glanced over at the 2 men and 2 boys staring at her with large eyes and red faces. She raised a challenging eyebrow. Immediately, the 4 looked away, frantically trying to look at something else in the room.
Allen felt dizzy as the blood rushed to his head. She was barely wearing anything, and still, her shirt was unbuttoned. Her black underwear was in plain sight and a large amount of her pale, smooth skin was showing. Allen deep breathed, nothing was covering her legs…at all.
No matter what she says, he is a man. He can't stand it, if it continues like this.
He clambered up. "Dem, you should put on more clothes." He walked over to her, where she appeared to be trying to take something out of a crate that was really heavy.
"I will if I can find more clothes." She busied herself with opening another crate, her tail flicked around. "Don't worry, gentleman. I'm not naked."
"At least put on some pants." He said with frustration. Her flicking tail kept drawing his gaze over, which in turn makes him look at her…hind side.
Suddenly she turned around and looked him in the eye. "Pants?" She tilted her head.
"Yes…" Allen nodded doubtfully, his doubt caused by the strange glint that came into her eyes. Her face was serious as ever.
She stepped towards him, face unchanging. He noticed her ears flatten against her skull and her tail was lowered. Allen tried to back away, but there was a crate. She stepped even closer to him, so close they were almost touching. Allen started sweating madly, from his own panic to the apparent heat that seemed to build up in the room. He glanced down to see exactly how close she is to him, but he could only see her bra. He glanced up and away quickly, avoiding eye contact with her. His throat became dry and he swallowed.
The girl suddenly reached down, her hands landing on the buckle of his belt. She fiddled with it with her long, slender fingers.
Johnny covered the eyes of two stunned kids and faced his back to the English and half-cat. "Kids shouldn't see things like this."
Komurin wept.
Allen was just as stunned, so he stayed still as she pulled the long leather out from the silver buckle.
When her fingers reached the zipper of his pants, the English woke up and jumped away quickly.
"W-WHAT ARE Y-YOU DOING?!" He held his belt and attempted to do it up again, but his hands were shaking so much that it was impossible. He continued sweating madly as more and more blood rushed to his head. He felt dizzy and his heart was racing along a high-speed race track. His face heated up so much that it could boil water.
The girl's ears flapped up straight and her tail raised itself and waved around. She shrugged. "Oh, you told me to wear pants so I thought you were giving me yours."
Allen immediately collapsed back against the door where Johnny and the two kids were. He shrunk up into a ball and clenched his permanently scarred heart. A comical stream of tears rolled down his face.
Kanda shook himself free from Johnny and stood over the Beansprout with a scowl, as he always does. "Tch."
Johnny released Lavi and worriedly bends over Allen. "A-Allen, are you ok?"
Lavi squatted near Allen's head. "Don't worry, Allen." The kid patted Allen on the head. "This is the season cats go into heat."
Allen sprayed blood from his nose, mouth and eyes.
Plak~ "Ow!" Lavi clenched his head, something hard hit the back of his head. He turned and glanced up but saw underwear. The rear of a gun made another impact against Lavi's face. The child collapsed next to Allen, clenching his swelling head and cheek. "OOWWW!"
"Don't say weird things Lavi." Desdemona adjusted the mini-sized machine gun in her hands and frowned. "And Allen, can't you even take a joke."
Allen sprung up. "THAT'S NOT SOMETHING TO JOKE ABOUT, DEM!"
She shrugged. "What, it's just pants…"
Allen almost cried again. However, he pointed a finger at the machine gun in her hands. "What is that?"
She gave him a weird look. "A machine gun."
"What do you need it for?" He kept asking.
She frowned. "Idiot. It's to fight against those zombies out there." She shifted the gun to her right hand whilst using her left to hang a belt of ammunition diagonally across her shoulder.
"Y-you're going to shoot them?" Allen widened his eyes.
"Of course! I don't have Thora, what else can I do?" She loaded another belt of ammunition into the gun.
"Wait, Dem! You can't shoot them!" Allen grabbed the tip of the gun and pulled on it.
She frowned and held on even tighter. "Let go."
"No."
"Let go."
"No."
"Let go!"
Allen's left arm activated and slashed the gun into four pieces instantly.
Desdemona blinked. She frowned and glared at him. "Hmph!" Angered, she pushed him hard on the chest, he stumbled back a bit and deactivated his arm. He blushed madly again. He can't stand it when she touches him. Someone give her some clothes, now.
Knock knock~
Instinctively, the exorcists jumped away from the near the door. Allen carried the immobile Johnny. They waited with baited breaths, who knocked on the door?
"Allen…Lavi…open the door…It is me…"
Lavi recognised the voice. "This voice…isn't it Crowley?"
"That's right." Crowley said from the other side of the door. "Please open this door."
The group inside the room stared at the door with a certain amount of doubt and suspicion. It's nice that Crowley finally woke up but…
What's this bad feeling.
"He may be infected." Komurin suddenly stated from the back of the room. "Opening the door would be disastrous."
In a swift motion, Allen, Kanda and Lavi pushed the robot in front of the door. Johnny watched with a dismayed expression. Desdemona was trying to pull out another riffle from another crate.
"WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!" Komurin cried as it was pushed towards the door.
"Go open it," said the three male exorcists simultaneously.
"NOOO! You're awful! It's common sense that in horror films, I will die as soon as I open it!" Komurin cried from its nose.
"It'll be fine." "It won't follow that pattern." encouraged Lavi and Kanda.
"It's painful for us to make you do this, Komurin!" Allen said.
"No, I won't open it!" Komurin cried.
Allen held the robot's arms tight. "Listen…Komurin!"
"NO!"
Allen sighed. "Since we've been separated from Komui and the others, Johnny's the only one who can make the KomuVita-D antibody." Allen explained.
"That's right!" Johnny agreed.
"The only troops we have remaining are myself, you, a few useless kids and…" Allen glanced over, only to see the girl's waving tail and her hind side as she bent into a deep crate trying to pull something out. "A cat." He returned his gaze to Komurin.
"So please," Allen half-closed his eyes in a flirtatious and hopeless manner. "You're the only one I can count on!"
The sound of blood-red roses blossoming filled the room as the robot fell into the deep abyss of love.
Bonk~
Komurin fell onto the floor, going limp as it clenched its aching heart from this burst of love. Standing above it was a fuming Desdemona. "Don't get in my way!" She said as she kicked the robot away…away from Allen.
Loading the rifle in her arm, she strode towards the door.
Allen blocked her path. She glared at him "What?"
"WHAT ARE YOU DOING DEM?!" He scolded her.
"Opening the door. If Crowley's normal, nothing happens. If he's infected, I'll shoot him in the head. Easy." She shrugged.
Allen looked down, shielding his eyes in the darkness. In a flash, the rifle in Desdemona's hands shattered and Allen deactivated his arm. He glanced up at Desdemona.
The girl froze. She blushed and she stopped. Allen was looking at her with half-closed eyes, batting his eyelashes at her. His brows were furrowed helplessly and his lips pursed in a begging way. "Dem, please don't do that."
The girl felt dizzy at the tone in Allen's voice. What is this?
Allen immediately swept the girl, in her full size, off her feet and carried her bridal style. She, being trained to do so in her small form, hugged his neck tightly. She became increasingly aware of his hands…on her bare waist and thigh…
He carried her over to a tall crate deep into the room and sat her on top of the wooden object. He looked up her with begging eyes, her blood rushed to her face. "Stay here, ok?" He said with the tone he used all day, that of an oldie talking to a kid.
The girl flushed and turned away. She crossed her arms and pouted. "Fine, go get yourself killed."
Allen went to the centre of the room and picked the robot up. "You see? I can rely on nothing but you." He frowned.
"What's this farce?" Kanda commented at the side.
"Yeah, robots aren't part of Allen's love for humanity." Lavi nodded.
"Allen's had bad experiences with previous Komurins before so…" Johnny elaborated.
"OH! THIS IS LOVE! MY HEART! IT ACHES!" Komurin said.
"Will you open the door for me?" Allen asked gently.
"YES!" Komurin answered. It rushed to the door and pulled. "I'M OPENING IT YOU BASTAR-"
Plonk~
Komurin's instant K.O followed after. The foot of the vampire was where the robot's head was supposed to be. The robot's head, was on the floor. Soon after, the entire metallic body of the robot fell to the floor.
The exorcists and Johnny froze and gawked. It was exactly as the horror films. Desdemona smirked triumphantly. This just proves that she was right. The bonus being the ever so annoying robot got what it deserved.
Slowly, Crowley emerged from behind the half opened door. His face was just like those of the infected ones, featuring bulging veins, wide eyes and drooling. "You should've opened the door quicker. NOW I'M IRRITATED!"
The vampire took a hold of the chains around his body and swung it to attack the group of exorcists. The sane ones jumped out of the way and the metal chains dug deep into the wall behind them. Allen looked back at the vampire, and frowned at the set of devil's wings on Crowley's back made of his own blood.
In Allen's moment of distraction, the zombie vampire grabbed his foot and swung the English around and around. A few seconds later, Crowley released Allen who was then sent flying.
Desdemona saw that the situation wasn't good so she jumped up. With her legs back to the way it was, she ascended with speed. Once she was high enough, she perched herself on the top crate of the stack and watched the show from above. Retreat is the best strategy when she doesn't have Thora.
Kanda and Lavi, whilst out of their mind, approached the vampire trying to attack him with their tiny fists. However, before either of them could land a hit, the powerful zombie vampire grabbed both of their heads and smashed them against each other. The two kids then fell to the ground groaning in pain. Crowley then proceeded to deal with Johnny.
Crowley drew his arm back, building up the strength into a punch. Johnny cowered against the wall behind him but is unable to escape. Crowley's fist came flying towards Jonny, who shut his eyes.
However, the expected blow did not come. Johnny opened his eyes, the one who was sent flying came back with his Innocence activated, his sword blocking Crowley's punch.
Allen smiled, "It's nostalgic isn't it, Crowley? The first time we met, we were fighting like this too." Accompanying his gentlemanly smile, his fist buried itself into Crowley's stomach. The zombie vampire groaned and coughed. Suddenly, he spat something out that landed with a soppy splat onto Johnny's face, coated in zombie saliva.
The vampire gritted his teeth in anger and without a single moment of hesitation, returned a punch into Allen's face. Allen immediately fell onto the pile, consisting of the headless Komurin at the bottom, Lavi and Kanda, and Allen on the top.
Johnny examined the lid as he dragged it out of the saliva on his face. He frowned. "This is…"
Crowley, seeing as there was nothing of interest any more, flew through the door like a black whirlwind.
"AH!" Johnny exclaimed. "AFTER HIM! Crowley just spat this out! It's the lid to the container of the KomuVita-D!"
The injured individuals half listened as their faces and bodies swelled painfully in all sorts of places. Desdemona jumped down from the crate, landing on the ground with the grace of a cat. "What?" She responded.
"D-Dem…" Allen said her name in an accusing way, which was ignored.
"That means Crowley is the source of the infection!" Johnny elaborated.
Desdemona nodded in understanding. "Antidote!" In a flash, her weightless legs carried her out the door, chasing after Crowley. Not many seconds afterwards, the rest of the idiotic humans caught up. Desdemona slowed herself so that she was behind Komurin and Allen. As if she's going to fight at the front.
"RAARARRRRRRGHGH!" She turned at the sound of growling behind her and saw the infected Generals pursuing at their tails. Desdemona instantly increased her speed. She wouldn't want to face that either.
Chasing Crowley, the group was chased by the Generals. They turned into corridors, up and down staircases and in and out of rooms. For some lucky reason, they managed to survive for about 20 minutes.
However, 20 minutes was her limit at this speed. Desdemona, who ran in front almost the whole time, began slowing down. She could feel her muscles screaming in pain and she could feel her heart was about to burst. She slowed down, which placed her next to Allen, who was near the back of the running formation.
The white-haired exorcist noticed and frowned. He glanced at her flushed and strained face and noticed her obvious ailing physical strength. Reaching out, he tightly grabbed her hand with his and pulled her along. The girl glanced up to see his face but he kept staring ahead.
Finally unable to tolerate this endless chase, General Sokaro raised his Innocence and plunged it deep into the fragile concrete ground. The cracks caused by the impact crawled at lightning speed until they reached the feet of the humans. The ground beneath them folded and collapsed and they, too, tripped and fell.
The infected ones pounced on the fallen survivors instantly. Bookman grabbed Lavi and General Tiedoll grabbed a hold of Kanda. They each respectively sank their teeth into the small arms of their students.
Allen groaned and tried to look up. The exhausted girl laid beside him on the floor, unable to move. Johnny crawled to Allen's side, trying to help him up. Allen held the girl's hand tighter, she's the one he can't lose.
Johnny saw Lavi and Kanda being assaulted so he summoned Komurin, which was found lying in the corner, unmoving, playing dead.
Mere seconds passed and the two kids were turned into vicious beings. From behind Johnny, General Sokaro's large, scarred hand came down and pulled Johnny from Allen's side. The General bit the scientist's scrawny arms, and Johnny, too, became one of them.
Allen tightened his jaws, his body won't move properly. He used all his strength to hold the girl's hand but it appears her body was in a worse state than his. "Dem! Dem!" He tried to call out.
The girl stirred and lifted her head up to look at him. She saw him crying in despair. However, before she was allowed to respond to him, she felt two strong hands attach themselves to her legs.
Allen saw her eyes widen in horror before she was violently pulled away from his grasp by none other than General Klaud. "No!" He screamed, but it was futile. He watched as the general bit into the bare flesh of the younger girl's thigh.
Allen froze for a few seconds. The girl was limp and unmoving, he couldn't see her face. He didn't know what to do.
Then suddenly, the girl pushed herself up. The General released the girl and Allen fell back onto his elbows. From the girl's eyes, he could tell she was infected. His brain wasn't functioning properly and he knew it, because all he could think of was that she wasn't drooling and was very thankful for that.
He froze and laid there unmoving as she slowly crawled towards him. His heart beats were frantic but he didn't know if it was fear. She slowly crawled towards him and suddenly, he paid extra attention to the fact that a lot of her skin is showing. The bite mark on her thigh was bleeding, but his straying mind found the scarring and the scarlet trail down her pale, smooth thigh strangely attractive.
She crawled over his legs and kept moving up. He stared straight into her intense eyes as she approached him at an extremely slow pace. The other infected ones did not seem to move, or maybe Allen was just seeing things in slow motion as they said one would when near death.
Whatever it is, Allen's lips felt dry as she placed her hands on either side of him. Her legs were on either side of his legs as she loomed over him. Slowly, she leant down. Allen closed his eyes.
Strangely, the bite didn't come. But what did made Allen bleed anyway, through his nose. The girl trailed her tongue up the side of his neck. He shivered. As romantic as the act should be, Allen feared. The way she licked him was similar to one slowly and sadistically savouring one's prey before killing it.
And then she bit him.
After this small group was entirely wiped out, Komui's group, who were separated by Komurin's missiles, were also completely wiped out. There were some other insignificant details about a ghost but that's unimportant. The important thing was, Komurin managed to synthesise an antidote, but was destroyed after the first infection it healed.
Bak, who came to help with the move, was greeted by the apocalypse. After many many many hardships, he managed to synthesise a vaccine and returned everyone to normal.
However after this incident, the Headquarters were actually, officially, completely and utterly destroyed.

BIG BLACK RIDING HOOD AND THE LITTLE, CAKE-LOVING CAT
Once upon a time, in a place far, far away, there lived a boy. He had a head of pure white hair, glittering silver eyes and a prominent red scar that runs through his left eye. His left arm was also red and deformed. Everyone in the village was afraid of him.
To hide his hair, his eyes and his arm, he wore a big black riding hood. No one in the village knew his name, so they called him Big Black Riding Hood.
One day, Big Black Riding Hood's guardian, Komui Lee, said to Big Black Riding Hood, "Please take this basket to your Master Cross. Tell your Master Cross that the cake labeled 'Eat Me' makes one older and the drink labeled 'Drink Me' makes one younger."
"Ok, Komui. I will be back soon." Says Big Black Riding Hood as he took over the basket. He reached down his back and pulled on his hood before opening the door.
"Be careful, Big Black Riding Hood!" Komui said, "Don't let strangers touch these potions I made!"
Big Black Riding Hood walked through a small, winding path, for Master Cross lived in an isolated house deep into the forest. He spotted a red-haired boy with an eye-patch, two large rabbit ears sat on his head as he hopped hurriedly away. "My name is Lavi the rabbit and don't stand in my way because I'm late for an appointment with my Panda Gramps, the Kung fu Master!"
Big Black Riding Hood stared after the rabbit with wide eyes, but then a shadow loomed behind him. He turned back to see a tall, black-haired man. His teeth are sharp, his ears were large and his nails sharp. "W-wolf?"
"Psh." The big bad wolf scowled and turned around. "I don't like eating scrawny beansprouts, even if they grow into a Beanstalk that can reach the sky."
"Who's a Beansprout!" Big Black Riding Hood screamed, but the wolf was already out of sight.
A butterfly fluttered past Big Black Riding Hood, "Hello. I am Lenalee. I am born from within a flower"
"Hello." Big Black Riding Hood replied as she fluttered away.
Big Black Riding Hood walked on for a while, and then sat down in the shade of a tall, big tree to have a rest. He lowered the basket down onto the ground beside him and pushed back his hood. There came a sudden rustle of the shrubs nearby. Big Black Riding Hood glanced over and saw a shadow. "Who is there?" He asked.
A small girl emerged from the low shrub. Her eyes were big and black, whilst her equally black hair was tied into a ponytail. She wore a simple black dress, its thin straps hung from her small shoulders. The fluffy triangular ears and her long, black tail gave her away. She was a cat.
Big Black Riding Hood smiled and extended a hand to the small creature. "Come here."
The little cat flattened her ears against her skull and approached him with caution. She neared him slowly, never leaving her large eyes from his gentle, silver eyes. They stared at each other for a while before the little cat jumped onto his arm and swiftly climbed into his shoulder. Her tail swished around in excitement whilst her ears were perked up in curiosity. She touched her nose softly onto his cheek, smelling his scent.
"Haha." Big Black Riding Hood giggled as the little cat tickled his cheek. He raised an arm up and swept the little cat off his shoulders and into his chest. He leant back against the tree and began stroking the cat's soft hair and ears.
"Meow~" The little cat purred as she rubbed her head into Big Black Riding Hood's large, warm hands.
"Ahaha, you're very cute." Big Black Riding Hood said.
"Don't call me cute." The little cat frowned up at the large man and pouted.
Big Black Riding Hood smiled more, "Oh, but you are."
"Hmph!" The little cat swatted the man's hand away with her tail and curled up into a ball on his lap. "I'm tired." She announced before covering her face with her tail and falling asleep. Big Black Riding Hood laughed more, she really is cute. He gently stroked her head and leant back against the tree. Soon, he, too, fell asleep.
The little cat woke to the large man's hand on her back. She got up on all fours and stretched her back with a purr. She shook off the man's hand and turned around in his lap. She glanced up, he's asleep. That's no fun.
She pouted before she spotted a woven basket, covered by a cloth, next to Big Black Riding Hood. Raising her eyebrows, she lifted the cloth slightly and was excited to see a delicious-looking cake labeled "Eat Me". She happily devoured it in a few gulps.
Suddenly, she fell down at the loss of balance. The confused cat stared at her hands before she realized her limbs were growing longer at an alarming pace. She froze in shock as she grew, and when she unfroze herself, she had stopped growing.
Slowly, she stood up and glanced down her body. With doubt, she lifted her hands and touched her ears. She felt down the side of her face, her neck. Her breasts were full, her waist thin and her hips wide. She glanced behind to see her tail, it has grown long. The dress she wore also became big, for it still fitted her, only a little stretched at the chest.
She glanced over at Big Black Riding Hood, still sleeping. Stomping over, the cat grabbed onto his collar and pulled him up. "Wake up!"
She watched as Big Black Riding Hood stirred and opened his eyes. His eyes were confused at first, but then he started bleeding from his nose.
The cat dropped the man, who collapsed onto the ground, his mind blank and heart beats erratic. The girl that stood before him was beautiful beyond words. He glanced up again and noticed her black hair, ears and tail.
"Wh-what happened to you?!" Big Black Riding Hood pointed a finger at the cat.
"That's what I want to ask you!" She exclaimed. "What happened to me? Why have I grown older?"
"Grown older?" He frowned and snapped his eyes to the basket, where only the drink remains. "Did you eat that cake?"
"Of course I did!" She frowned incredulously.
"Don't of course me!" He shook his head at her.
She narrowed her eyes at his outrageous claim. "Return me to normal."
He grabbed her hand, grabbed the basket and started pulling her along deeper into the forest.
"Where are we going?!" She demanded as she tried hard to keep up with his pace.
"My Master Cross lives deep in this forest. He can return you to normal." He explained.
The human and the cat sped through the forest and arrived at a pompous log house just before sun down. Big Black Riding Hood knocked on the log door, his other hand holding the cat's hand…paw. The basket was now in the cat's paws.
After a few seconds of waiting and the sound of walking, a tall man with bright red hair opened the door. He was smoking and drinking wine at the same time.
"Argh, what are you doing here idiot pupil?" The man said with distain.
"Master Cross!" Big Black Riding Hood said, "Please return this cat back to normal." He gestured behind him.
Master Cross craned his neck and spotted the cat in a black dress. He immediately pushed Big Black Riding Hood aside and bowed to the cat. "Oh, what a beautiful sight that greets me. Please, come in and have some tea while you explain the situation."
The cat sat down at a table at the Master's invitation. Big Black Riding Hood followed, scowling at his Master's flirtatious behavior. The red-haired man entered the kitchen for a few minutes before emerging with two cups of tea. He set a cup before the boy and the other before the cat.
"So tell me what happened." Master Cross rested his chin on his clasped hands.
Big Black Riding Hood took a deep breath and began explaining. From the two chemicals to the cat eating the cake, most of which made no sense but Master Cross happened to understand it.
"That's the story." Big Black Riding Hood concluded, taking a huge gulp of his tea.
Master Cross nodded in comprehension. For a few seconds, it was quiet in the log house, but then came the loud clatter of the wooden chair falling and the dull thud of Big Black Riding Hood's body falling to the ground.
The cat stood up in shock. She glared at Master Cross, who began laughing. "Oh, how long have I waited to use that potion. Oh, don't look so nervous, my lady, your tea is completely fine."
"What did you do to him?"
"I gave him a potion that will cause him to sleep forever. Only a kiss of love can break this potion's effects!"
"Why did you do this?!"
"Oh, I am actually an octopus witch from the ocean. I am actually a woman." The Master stood up and began peeling his own face off, to reveal a golden-haired woman with a scar on her face. "My name is actually Klaud. MWAHAHAHA MWAHAHAHA!"
"What's the sound?!" Suddenly, a small robot pushed opened the door, followed by 6 more similar robots. "We are the 7 little Komurins! Hi-ho! Hi-ho!"
"Gah! I must escape!" Witch Klaud said as she jumped out the window.
"Oh, beautiful cat, what can we do for you?" One of the robots said.
"Um…carry this man onto that bed over there." She pointed.
The robots then proceeded to lift Big Black Riding Hood onto the table, spilling a few cups of tea in the process.
The cat shook her head and rolled her eyes. Incompetent fools. She glanced at Big Black Riding Hood and pushed back his hood. She stared at his peacefully sleeping face, he sleeps like a princess. A kiss of love, huh? It must be a coincidence.
Leaning down slowly, she watched his unmoving expression. She stared at his silvery-white eyelashes and the scar over his eye. She wondered, but didn't pay much heed. She closed her eyes and gently, she pressed her lips against his.
The 7 little Komurins standing around the table blushed their robotic blushes.
Pecking the human tenderly on his lips, the cat pulled back and opened her eyes. She continued to stare at Big Black Riding Hood.
Several seconds passed and slowly, his eyelids fluttered open. He stared blankly at the ceiling at first, but then he saw a person standing next to him. She smiled at him.
The 7 little Komurins cheered.
Big Black Riding Hood sat up abruptly and his eyes darted around. He was in his Master's log house but his Master was nowhere in sight. He turned to the cat beside him. "What happened?"
"Oh I don't want to explain." She shrugged.
Allen rubbed his eyes and blinked several times, because he think he saw her ears and tail disappearing. After a few blinks, her ears and tails completely disappeared. "Wh-what's happening to you? You became…human?"
"Oh, I was originally human. But it was some spell that turned me into a cat, only a kiss of love can return me to my former self." She explained.
"A kiss of love?" Big Black Riding Hood tilted his head.
"Yes! The same kiss that revived you, sleeping handsome man!" One Komurin said.
"A, kiss of love?" Big Black Riding Hood repeated once again. He looked to the girl in the black dress and was shocked to see her holding the "Drink Me" potion. "What are you doing?"
"What does this do?" She asked.
"It makes you younger…" Big Black Riding Hood replied.
"Oh, then that's perfect. If I drink this then all of this weird potion and spell effects will be completely gone!" She opened the lid to the drink.
Big Black Riding Hood sprinted over and stopped her. He took the drink from her and smashed it to the ground where it shattered. "Don't drink this!"
"Hey!" She frowned at him.
Suddenly, he dropped to one knee and took a hold of her hand. "Please don't go back to being a child. Stay the beautiful woman you are and marry me!"
"Oh, ok." She replied swiftly.
Church bells ring and white carriages were pulled.
They lived happily ever after.
The End.
