Ahahaha~ I hope you liked the whole, 'Ikuto turning into a zombie' thing. Anyways, ON WITH THE STORY~
I do not own Shugo Chara or any of it's characters expect my own.
We... We really just left Ikuto to die... Didn't we? Though even if I did stay, or took him with us... He would still turn, right? There is nothing we can do about this.
"Usagi... Mei." I stopped dead in my tracks. They both turned. Worried expressions were planted on their faces. "Did... Did you like Ikuto?"
They both looked at each other, then back at me and nodded. "Of course we did." Usagi said.
"Then... Then why did we just leave him to die!? Couldn't we have tried to do something!?" I shouted.
Usagi frowned. "Amu, I don't know to heal zombie bites. Hell, I barely know how they work. And... The reason we dragged you out of there was because... We wanted him to be happy... Before he..." Usagi looked down, not wanting to finish her sentence.
"He asked us to do this. So we granted his wish." Usagi finished.
"I..." I stuttered. "I see..."
"And so," Usagi continued. "We're going to protect you."
I looked up at them. They were not kidding. They were dead serious.
"No. Don't you dare put yourself into danger just for my sake." I said.
"But..." Usagi said. "That's too bad. We're not giving you an option here." She smiled at me.
"You can't get everything your way Amu. It's not our fault we live in such a... cruel world."
"It's over here." Usagi pointed down a path made of rocks. "At the end of this, we'll find the place I was at before I met you. Don't worry Amu. You can trust me. I'm glad we ended up near this place. Come on!" She started running down the pathway.
Mei and I followed, careful not to trip on the rocks. We reached the so called building Usagi used to live in before she met us.
"Right there!" She pointed at a factory-like building. We started running towards the building.
"The entrance is over here." She led us around the back. At the back was a door. On the top left corner of the door was a camera. Beside the door was a buzzer and on top of it was a microphone. She pressed the buzzer and muttered something into the microphone. I wasn't able to make out the words. The sound of a door unlatching was heard. Usagi turned the doorknob and entered. She motioned for us to come in. We followed her inside. The inside was pretty factory-like as well.
People greeted Usagi as she walked in. They seemed surprised to see her alive.
She stopped and faced me. She smiled. "Wait here for a moment please." She motioned for Mei to follow. They ran off into a room. Probably an office.
They came back with a man following them. He smiled at her. "Are you Amu Hinamori?"
I nodded. "Yes, I am."
"I see. I'm Usagi's and Mei's father. Thank you for bringing back my precious daughters. How can I ever repay you?" He said.
"Well," I said. "I would like to know how they came to meet me."
"Ah, you see, zombies attacked us and somehow Usagi and Mei managed to escape. I guess they ran till they reached you."
"I see. Well I do need more supplies. Ammo and such." I said.
"Of course. Would you like to sleep here for the night as well?" He asked.
I shrugged. "Beats going back out there."
Usagi's father, Kenzo, showed me the way down to the room I was going to stay in.
"If you need anything, please don't hesitate to ask." He said.
I nodded, "Thank you."
He turned around and walked out, shutting the door behind him.
I walked up to the bed, taking off my pack which was now filled with new supplies and ammo. I plopped it beside the bed. I crawled into the bed, laying down on my back.
I was exhausted. I mean, why wouldn't I be after all I've already been through?
I couldn't help close my eyes as I drifted off to sleep.
The sound of a loud voice woke me up. It sounded like Usagi's. I looked around. No one was here.
"GOOD MORNING~!" Usagi's voice boomed. It seemed to be coming from an intercom.
"I AM BACK BITCHES. THAT'S RIGHT I'M BACK. I HOPE YOUR READY TO SERVE ME AGAIN!" Serve her...?
"ANYWAYS, A NEW PERSON HAS JOINED US TODAY. HER NAME IS AMU HINAMORI! SHE'S IN ROOM 24. NOW THIS IS A DEMAND. GET AMU HINAMORI!"
Feel those amazing feels of suspense. I think I did quite well on this one. I hope you liked this chapter~ See you in the next one! Ja nee~!
