AN: CHAPTER 4.
"Hah, Hah." Kenta huffed as the both of them rested on a wall by the residential district. They've been running after they had split from Komuro's group.
"Damn this shit, I need to rest." He said as he looked around.
"Agreed." Isamu said as he too was feeling his fatigue.
"Hey." Kenta suddenly said.
"Hm?" Isamu raised his eyebrow as Kenta smirked at him and pointed his thumb at an abandoned house.
"That house might be good." He said Isamu eyed the house, it was a somewhat decent house with a lock gate no one seemed to be in their since there was no movement nor noise nodding his head at Kenta the he opened the gate slowly without trying to make a sound and they enter.
"Strange. It appears that this is one of the houses the weren't attacked." Isamu noticed.
"Maybe the person who lived here left during the evacuation." Kenta offered, Isamu seemed to think it over and conceded to the fact. Isamu tried the door and saw that it was open a sign that who ever lived here left in a hurry.
As they entered they saw that the place was indeed deserted but for some reason the place did not seem to have been attacked.
"Well that's a relief." Kenta muttered as the both of them looked around the house, though Isamu stopped on his tracks when he saw a case with a Wakizashi placed on a Shiraya inside of it. unsheating the blade he saw the blade in a Shobu Zukuri style without any engravings either it was intentional or that the blade was nameless. Testing the weight, it seems to be balanced and that the blade itself was extremely sharp.
"What a wonderful sword." Isamu muttered as he eyed his reflection on it, he noticed movement behind him and turned around to see Kenta eating an apple.
"What's that?" Kenta asked.
"A wakizashi." Isamu simply said as he untied the Machete on his waist and replaced it.
"Hm..." Kenta appears to be contemplating something, he walked up towards the table in the room and turned to him.
"Give it here for a bit." He said. Isamu was confused at what Kenta wanted with the blade but decided to humor him though he was surprised when Kenta brought out a brush and an ink bottle.
"What are you going to do?" Isamu asked his confusion.
"Hm?" Kenta looked at him, then resumed his work.
"Remember when I said that I came from the past?" Kenta started, Isamu only nodded unsure where this was getting to.
"Well this is the main reason." He said as he gave back the sword to him, though it now seem to have a form of scripture written on the entirety of the blade which was glowing, It glowed for a bit then shrunk and turned into a kanji for unbroken. Seeing Isamu's questioning look from him and the blade.
"Well let's just say one of the reasons I got sent into this time was because I made an accident on an experiment." Kenta chuckled at that, Isamu not really understanding what had happen decided to change the subject.
"So what did you do to it?" He asked instead.
"Let's just say, you don't have to worry about breaking the blade when you swing." Kenta answered with a grin.
"You mean to tell me that, that thing that you wrote made my blade harder to break?" Isamu asked.
"Something like that, and as a bonus it won't rust too." Kenta added.
"Hm, I'll believe it when I see it." Isamu said as he re-sheathed the blade on his back.
"Right, So I'll be in the tub cleaning myself for two days worth of marathon." Kenta joked as he left to finally get a bath.
"You should, you smell." Isamu said as he Kenta slipped.
"Bastard." Kenta said as he slowly went towards the bathroom. Isamu made sure that the entire area was secure when he saw nothing would catch them of guard he went towards the kitchen to make some food.
30 mins later Kenta returned feeling refreshed that he had finally bathe he saw Isamu eating on the table with another plate on the other side, Kenta simply sat and ate. Isamu went next since he had already had his fill.
Kenta seeing that he had nothing better to do decided to look around some more hoping to find something that he could use. He saw an empty backpack on the cabinet in one of the rooms, grabbing one of the closets he saw that there was still some clothes on it grabbing 3 sets for each of them he also looked for something else that they could use he saw a pair of shoe boxes and looked around there where a few tennis shoes and thankfully it was the same size as his quickly switching his old leather shoes he fitted on a pair of black shoes with red soles and shoe laces. His slacks was the only thing that wasn't changed (since I like wearing it in real life) on his person.
Isamu entered the living room seeing Kenta with a backpack field with supplies and him with a new change of clothes, Isamu still wore the school uniform though the only thing changed was the undershirt instead of a regular shirt he wore a red polo.
But before the both of them could start to talk the sky suddenly lit and the appliances short circuited.
"What in the world?"
"Shit they didn't" Isamu suddenly shouted as he went towards the window and eyed the white light.
"What is it?" Kenta asked.
"EMP" Isamu only said.
"emp? EMP!" He shouted.
"Yeah, damn. The world is going to shit and they launch that?" Isamu cursed.
"Well this looks bad." Kenta said as he saw a great fire towards the distance.
"We should go, with the noise that the EMP made they would be all over the place in an instant." Isamu said.
"Well we only need to be silent then... Silent. That's it." Kenta said as he upholstered his gun placed in on the table and started drawing symbols by the barrel with his brush.
"Now, I just have to do this..."
"Then some of that..."
"Now add this here..."
"And where done." He said as the gun barrel glowed a bit, when the glow died down Isamu notices that nothing was changed nor added on it.
"And what did you do exactly?" He asked.
"He he he..." He snickered.
"Kenta?" Isamu asked.
"Oh, sorry. C'mon let me show you." Kenta said as the both of them left the house with Kenta putting on the backpack.
Sure enough the entire neighborhood was swarmed by 'Them' The two of them where surrounded though they weren't heard just yet suddenly one of them fell from a gunshot wound but it was odd seeing as there weren't any gunshot heard, another 2 more fell with the same wound but again there was no gunshot heard. Isamu finally notices Kenta having his M37 raised and was smoking.
"Kenta, was that?" Isamu asked him in bewilderment.
"No sound? He he he, told you so." Kenta grinned as he fired 2 more he then opened the cylinder and reloaded.
"I seem to recall you said that you only had 15 ammo from the wreckage from before... was that because..." Isamu said in response Kenta only showed him his pouch which was filled with .38 caliber ammo.
"Yup, I did it in the house were we met Kohta. Though I never though of putting a silencer seal on my gun." Kenta said.
"Seal?" Isamu inquired.
"Yup, the art was called Fuuinjustu. Though it can no longer be taught since no one can get access to their chakra here, and the Indian Chakra philosophy was different from the past." He said. 'And since I wasn't originally from this world anyway it became impossible.'
"So people from the past can do those things?" Isamu asked.
"And much more, though my style is different since my body was different from the norm." Kenta said with finality stating that the conversation ended there, he started shooting at 'Them' opening a path towards the highway.
"We don't have much supplies on the bag." Kenta said as the both of them moved.
"Let's head to the mall first then." Isamu suggested.
"Fair enough, If where gonna need supplies what better place than the Mall." Kenta nodded though as they head towards the Highway they were passed by a buggy!?
"The hell was that?" Kenta asked.
"A buggy." Isamu said simply.
"That's not it dumbass, I meant the people aboard it." Kenta said as he fired upon a zombie that was walking towards them, though it seems to have been attracted by the sound of the Buggy.
"I know who it was, though I don't think we can catch up. They have a car, we don't." Isamu said.
"Right, Let's just head towards the Mall." Kenta said as he too started walking towards the highway.
A bit later they saw the buggy sped towards the river bank diving towards the river with a lot of 'Them' in tow. Though on a different direction on top the Bridge Kenta saw the group but they where missing both Komuro and Busujima...
"The two people atop the buggy became the decoy, while the others head towards the bridge." Kenta muttered though Isamu heard him still.
"I see, is this one of your abilities?" Isamu asked intrigue that Kenta could see a mile away.
"Somewhat though the norm in my time was able to see more than 5 miles straight." Kenta answered as he started walking towards the bridge.
-Nightfall-
"Damn, It's hard to see in the dark." Kenta said as the night has fallen.
"What do you expect instead of resting we decided to rush it." Isamu said as he too was having a hard time to look around, lucky for them Kenta packed a pair of flashlights.
"Hey check that out." Kenta said as he pointed his flashlight towards a police outpost.
"You think we could find something to use in there?" Kenta asked.
"Maybe, maybe not. Though police outposts may have some weapons stored in there for emergencies." Isamu said. Kenta nodded and they both entered the outpost. Isamu saw another revolver pistol though this one was a M60 stainless steel revolver, he gave it to Isamu since he did not need a gun not anymore. Isamu grinned at the thought of his special sword that Kenta modified with his seals.
"Hm? What's this?" Kenta said as he picked up a shoulder holster.
"It's a holster though its used to hide the pistol on the person's shoulder." Isamu told him.
"Heh..." Kenta said as he removed the backpack and equiped it on his person while holstering the M60 and locking it into place, seeing a dark-colored jacket (night can't see color properly) on one of the chairs he put it on and properly hid the M60.
"Nice." Kenta said as he picked up the backpack.
"Were too next?" He asked Isamu.
"It would be better if we rest for the night, It would be for the best if we find a higher ground." Isamu suggested.
"Hmmm, good point. The dead couldn't reach as there." Kenta thought it over seeing as the night has impaired their vision it would be for the best if they rested for now.
"Let's rest in the roof." Kenta pointed up.
"Hm, the roof does gives us adequate elevation. Let's go." Isamu said as they hid climbed atop the wooden ladder that was placed on the side of the Outpost, sure enough there was enough room for the both of them to rest at as the both of them reached the top Kenta suggested that they remove the ladder just in case. They did and set in on the roof. Kenta settled on one side and fell asleep, Isamu notices this and knew that Kenta was already tired since he wasn't able to properly sleep in the Humvee earlier add that to the impromptu marathon they did as well as up to now. Isamu only shook his head and took his own spot to wait the day to rise.
