~Shinku's P.O.V.~

I was patrolling around my campsite where my older sister is currently at, when I saw a large flock of undead heading up the road to a caravan of people, some in a metal wagon, others walking in coats of carpet, or on horses with their own armor. I saw that one of the undead started to run, I was surprised at first but I immediately swung my kusarigama out in a horizontal arc, cleaving through the runner zombie's legs which drew the attention of the caravan's attention toward me as I jumped toward the zombies, my kusarigama retracting back into my sleeve while I unsheathed my scythe, which has 5ft black pole, back of the blade is pitch black while the blade is seretated crimson red.

I swung my scythe with utmost precision, decapitating 4 head's while cutting off arms and legs. I grunted quietly as they continued moving toward me, the closest meal ticket to them. I quickly dispatched them, before they could do any harm, aka bite me. Once that was done, I looked over my shoulder to the caravan of people who were gaping at me, before I dashed into the forest, using my kusarigama, as a way of transportation, moving through trees at blinding speeds, not hitting a single tree.

As I was rushing through the tree's I kept thinking about the zombie runner's, hoping that they didn't find and get to Rose, my older sister. It took me only five minutes to get to the campsite by tree running & swinging on my kurasama's chain.

The first thing I noticed was Rose, pouring soup into a bowl with a man by her, she said to him, " "Careful now" as she watches him with the soup in her hands. When he's sitting, she hand him the bowl "It's hot so eat carefully." Rose warns. He takes it cautiously. "If I was going to kill you, I would've done it while you were asleep." Rose states. He nods and starts eating. I rustle the tree lightly allowing her to know i'm back, causing her to look up to the tree not being able to see me, just the glint of off my sunglasses.

"What's this about killing people in their sleep?" I inquire. She rolls her eyes. She says "My name's Rose. The idiot in the tree-" I yell "I resent that!" with my fist shaking in the air. Rose of course ignores me and continues." -is my younger brother Shinku. What is your name?" The man is chuckling at my antics.

"My name is Tom Imura. How did I get here?" he asks.

"I dragged you here while you were unconscious. You were injured and I didnt want you to turn." Rose explained. "Thank you." he says. "I mean it, I have a brother back in my town and I'm all he's got left." Rose replied "You're welcome, Tom."

Then I noticed next to her was my once long-sleeved grey jacket without it's sleeves. "How long have you been out here in the ruin?"

"Since First Night." Rose admits. I throw a pinecone at her as Tom stares at her in shock. She look up towards the glint of my sunglasses. "Why the pinecone?" then she notices that i'm staring at my jacket… the one she tore… I looked pissed.

I jumped down from the tree branches, landing like it was nothing, making no noise at all, surprising the guy or Tom, with how quiet I am. I grunted silently as I rolled my shoulders around, till we all heard the popping from my shoulder blades, then picked up my torn jacket before putting it in my black backpack as I motioned for them to follow me.

They got up slowly, before started to walk after me as I walked toward where the caravan I saved was heading, to a mountain side.

~1 hour later, in a forest~

We were just out of view of the fenced guard tower view in the tree lines, I sighed as I said quietly, "So… is that your town?" Tom nodded and replied "Yes, thank you so much for helping me get back Shinku, Rose." I noticed that he gave Rose a more affectionate tone, which I somewhat understood considering they were talking to each other in quiet whispers for the entire hour. Rose said "I guess I will see you later Tom." I sighed as I saw Tom, limping toward mountainside, his little town, while Rose watched on with longing.

I shook my head in exasperation, gaining Rose's attention, for me to say "Go to him, I will be fine out here, don't worry I will be around." Before I could move after saying this Rose had pulled me into a tight hug while saying "Thank you, Shinku, and I know you will be fine, after all your my younger brother, if you die I revive you to kill you myself!" I smirk at her as she let me go and dashed off to Tom, much to his surprise and joy.

I moved my sunglasses out of the way to give him a look as I mouthed to him when he looked back at me "Take care of her for me" then…. I was gone from sight, the shadows covering me from everyone's sight.
