Chapter 7

True feelings spread through Blades and Bullets

I dreamed about her last night. I don't know what the hell is going on with me at all. This weird feeling I'm harboring inside is going to burst if I don't do something. I get out of bed and put my uniform on as usual to prepare myself for today's monster hunt with Uni. I walk downstairs and see Uni already to go.

"Morning Uni."

"Morning Anthony. It took you long enough." Uni said with sass.

"It's barely after seven though." Noire walks behind us.

"We're both up much earlier then this Anthony." Noire stated.

"I see. Sorry for waking up so late. I'm still trying to get used to this damn sleep pattern." I slept for once last night. I really didn't want to get out of bed just yet.

"Come on Anthony let's go." Uni walks out of the basilicom.

"Anthony, make sure you protect Uni today."

"Of course Noire. I will not allow anything to harm her." I stated with pride.

"Good. Here, eat this before you go." She hands me a sandwich with meat and cheese and egg.

"Thanks." I blushed slightly and ate the sandwich and went on my way.

"See you later Noire." I let out a small smile.

"Later" 'Why can't I start a normal conversation with him. . .' Noire stated as she sits at her desk and set up the paper work that was done last night.

Uni and I walk inside a dark cave to hunt some monsters and strengthen our skills. I slice through the monster in my way as bullets fly around me. A giant fenrir stand in our way.

"Finally a damn challenge. I have been waiting for some excitement." My eyes glow red as my sword burns dark red.

"Are you nuts?! That is a powerful monster. We need to flee now."

"Too damn late for that shit. It's charging at us." The fenrir charges towards Uni. I run between them and catch it's claws with my sword.

"Sorry buddy but you need to tear me down first." I push the beast away from us.

"If you're scared I would run now." I told Uni before I begin to taunt the beast.

"No way I'm leaving you alone." A pillar of light comes behind me. I looked behind me as I saw a girl with white twin drills and a one piece black suit. The weapon she is holding is twice her size! That's a huge rifle to say the least.

"You better protect me from that beast you crazy warrior."

"No problem Uni. I'm over here asshole!" I sprint towards the fenrir.

"How can charge in so recklessly. No matter I need to use this time to attack. Venom shot! Tricolor Order!" Three shining bullet fly right by me.

"Allow me Uni. Flaming Rush Bullet Combo!" I attack with fierce flame strike as the bullet penetrate through the beast.

"ROOOOAAAR!" It hits me with full force sending me flying. I catch myself an get myself back on my feet.

"Someone is playful. Alright I'll play with ya." I sprint towards the beast again. Swords start to surround me.

"The hell is this?" Uni seems really shocked.

"Cosmic Blades!" I slice and dice through the fenrir.

"I would finish this damn thing now Uni!" I told her as I kept attacking the beast in front of me.

Got it! Throw that beast towards my way!"

"As you wish Uni. Chaotic Strike!" I slash the beast at full force sending it flying hurling towards Uni.

"Time for me to show you what a CPU can do!" She fly s around the beast that is coming her way.

"NPG!" She shoots the monster with powerful gun shots that is keeping it airborne. She fly s up and shoot it down with laser.

"Not bad. It's a pretty light show, but I want a piece of the action to you know." My sword glowed black and blue.

"Here goes my final shot!" A giant beam is shot from her gun.

"My chance to jump it." I charge at the beast the slice it one last time.

"Dragon's Impact!" I jump high and charge downward to finish it as the beam faded away. Uni flies down towards me and goes back to her human form.

"Do you really have to get all excited like that." Uni seems rather pissed.

"Sorry I guess I really wanted a good fight out of this cave." I stated

"You could have died you know."

" Yea and?"

"Do you honestly care if you die."

"Why the hell are getting all emotionally for. I'm alive right? So there should be no problem.

"What if you do go on and die? What then?" Uni seems rather serious.

"I honestly can care less as long as my job as be fulfilled." I stated softly.

"Anthony?" Uni walked towards.

"I'm not really someone you should care for or anyone for that damn matter." A horde a monsters surrounded us.

"I see you assholes want to play. Then come here!" A red aura surrounded me. The monsters charged at me

"Anthony!" Uni saw Monsters fly left and right.

"Come on you damn small fry!" I kept killing monsters left and right. I saw a monster about to attack Uni

"Damn it!" I sprint towards the Minotaur-like monster and blocked it's attack.

"Pick on someone your own size." I started to feel blood dripping down from my head. Uni shot the monster right the head.

"You're not having all the fun." Uni starts firing like crazy at the countless horde of monsters. We kept attacking them for a while until Noire showed up

"Volcano Drive!" A pillar of fire went through the horde.

"We need to leave here at once." Noire commended us.

"Like hell I am! We need to find the fucking source of this." Noire notice the red aura that is surrounded me.

"No you need to calm down first." Noire ordered.

"Why the hell should I? O shit Noire!" I notice a sword thrown toward her, but it went through me.

"Damn. . . Who the fuck threw that."

"Long time no see friend." A familiar voice said as the monsters just stopped coming.

"The hell?" The hooded figure came towards me and pulled the sword out of me.

"Being Heroic as usual I see. I need to take out that girl you just saved."

"Like hell you will!" I drew my sword.

"You wouldn't want to do that if I were you." The figured stabs me.

"The hell. . ." I started to cough up blood.

"So you're not going to move?"

"N-no I'm not."

"You look like shit Anthony. Just saying. To think you would do this to us. I can't blame you though."

" Zack?"

"I guess you're not as dumb as I thought. I will let you live your fantasy for a little while longer, but before I go." He stabs me in the right leg.

"AHH!" I fall down in pain.

"Now I can do what needs to be done." I blocked his sword with mine and get myself back up.

"Why are you after her?"

"I need to kill any celestial being within this world."

"Why?"

"So We can go back home Anthony."

"I don't want to go back."

"But why?" Zack seemed a bit shocked.

"I'm sick of tired of being treated like shit! I rather die then go back there!" I get up and pull out my sword.

"You need to just go Zack before I have to cut you down."

"So you found out. I'm sorry but we needed someone to suffer and kill all the monsters."

"Why? Why me? Why do I get all the shit!"

"Because we thought you could be strong."

"Fuck that! I'm not going back and you can't stop me."

"Alright. . . Next time we meet we will be enemies then." Zack walks away from me. I finally fall to my knee again and started to cry.

"Why?. . .just why!?" Noire and Uni walk towards my wounded body.

"Is that a friend of yours?" Uni asked.

"Y-yea he was anyways. I don't what happened to him.

" We can talk more about that later. Uni can you grab his left side?" I looked up towards Noire.

"Huh?"

"Just grab my hand. We need to treat your wounds." I grab her hand and she held my right side as Uni had my left side. We walk about to the basilicom and I get my wound treated for the next week.

"Noire? Why is he always so reckless?"

"I have no clue Uni. He is rather weird to say the least. We have to watch for that guy though. He said he needed to take down any celestial beings.

"I'm surprised that he took a fatal blow so quickly for you."

"Yea I thought for sure he was going to die." Noire looked at the floor.

"Noire?

"Hmm? Sorry I got lost in thought."

"No it's fine sis." Noire sees me walk downstairs.

"What are you doing up?" Noire seemed concerned.

"I needed to walk around a bit."

"I see. Just be careful not to reopen you wounds." Noire stated. Uni walked towards me.

"Can you tells us about all that happened with Zack."

"I guess I can tell you girls a little bit." Uni and Noire look at me ready to listen. Kei walks behind them.

"I'm rather curious about this Zack person." Kei stated.

"Alright then listen up ladies" I got the attention of all three girls.

"As you know my home world is basically dead. Well Me and my family have been shunned because of the dimension traveling that my family been doing until 9 years ago right before my father died. The remaining people just wanted me dead so they didn't have to worry about this dimensional crap. Zack had other plans and took me in,but he was never really there at all. Yea it's nice to have a roof over my head, but all I did was fight and sleep. Zack wanted to show people that we can save the remaining people by going to other dimensions."

"Really?" Noire stated in question.

"Yes, but each time we would go to a dimension we would end up destroying ourselves in it. So they wanted to destroy it saying that we were not ready yet. I wanted to travel in chance that maybe my mother would be some where.

"Your Mother?" Uni seems confused.

"Yea My father decided to have a affair with one of the locals around here. He said this just before he passed on. Stupid dumb ass." I laughed a little.

"I see." Uni seemed depressed for some weird reason.

"Proceed please." Kei asked.

"Alright. I'm the last one that knows what to work the teleporter back in my world, so they would send me out fighting thinking I would die out there. I got very strong due to this.

"That's really depressing."

"I guess, but that why I'm here to start a new life here." I let out a big smile.

"Here. You better be thankful for this." Uni give me a hug.

"Uni?"

"Thank you for saving my sister Anthony." Uni looks at me with a rather cute smile. Noire comes from behind me and hugs.

"Thank you for protecting my little sister out there." Noire stated with a adorable smile. Her blush just adds to her cuteness.

"No problem ladies. Thanks for the hugs." I blushed beet red. "I feel wanted for once."

"Well you need to be alive to be my bodyguard, So you better not die Anthony." Noire stated really fast with her sassy tone.

"You done telling us that story?" Kei seems really curious still.

"I am. It's too damn depressing at this point to talk about. I'm here in Gameindustri and I'm here to start and fresh new life. I'm not going to let my past get in the way of it."

"Alright then I will be going back to finish my work for the day." Kei walks away from us.

"I'm sorry that you had to live through that." Uni said in a depressing tone as she lets me go.

"No worries Uni. That's in the past now. I can't change that but I can mold my future."

"You're stronger then I thought." Noire stated.

"Nah I'm not strong at all." I let out a smile.

"I think you are." Noire blushed slightly.

"Oh. Ummm. Thank you."

"Don't get used to it Anthony."

"I know that Noire."

"Good now go bed back to bed or I will force back to bed."

"Yes Ma'am." I walk back upstairs to rest up.

"I'm going to my room sis. If you need me just yell for me." Uni smiled as she went upstairs.

"Thanks Uni." Noire walks to her room. She looks at my bedroom door.

'I hope I can bring you happiness. . ' She sheds a tear as she goes to her room. She lays down to dwell on what has happened.

'I didn't think he had that kind of past. . .I thought he was always strong like that and had people to support despite what he said, but now after hearing all that. He was truly alone. . .just like I am.' Noire falls asleep to dream of her in her happy place with someone she didn't think she would bother to let in.
