Authors note: Reviews please, I really would love to see what you all think of the story. Oh and the DVD came the other day, But I heard that the manga is ahead of the anime so I'll just stick with reading the manga.
Hope you like the story so far.
Anyway, On with the show!
Enjoy
The infection was everywhere. No place was safe from it, No matter how hard one tried, In the end they would either be infected by one of 'them' or killed by the crazed psychotic people that loomed over the streets. But some people were still willing to try and escape this nightmare, And they were going to do whatever they could.
No matter the cost.
-offshore airport-
At the airport, The place was crawling with 'them'. They were everywhere, And it seemed more and more were gathering.
Meanwhile two people were sitting on a platform as they watched 'them roam the runway. One person was looking through a scope.
"Oh no, He was a good man. I remember him. He came and did a performance in tokonosu. He was an actor" one person said as he kept looking through his scope, "We'll have to make adjustments due to the wind if we wait much longer! Permission to fire, Granted!" he said as he nodded at the person next to him.
His partner then aimed her sniper rifle as she took the shot, Blasting right through the actors skull.
"Wonderful! The beasts have been obliterated!" the man said.
"Phew" the woman said as she got up and started to rub her large breasts.
The man just looked at her with a look of confusion "What are you doing?" he asked her.
The woman then stretched her arms outward.
"I wasn't able to get any sleep this morning, So I was starting to feel numb" she said, The man just smirked a bit "I can give you a massage if you like" he said.
The woman then took off her vest "Even though you're a better marksman than me?" she said.
The man just shrugged.
"Don't be ridiculous Rika! Weren't you the one who was inducted into the best 5 of all the police officers in the country?" he said.
Rika just sighed.
"Cut it out Nara" she said "We're not allowing ships to dock, But people can leave the offshore airport. Is it because of the new regulations?" she said, Nara just crossed his arms.
"Yeah, Blame the people up top. The indispensable engineers who were in charge of airport maintenance are returning home to their families in droves" he said, "Anyone could leave next. We have enough hands for now, But it'll only last for so long. But we don't have an unlimited supply of ammunition".
"Are you going to run away?" Rika asked.
Nara shook his head.
"No...not yet".
"I'm going to the city. Who...am I gonna call my man now?" she said with a smile.
Nara looked at her.
"You have a friend there?" he asked her.
Rika placed her hands behind her head.
"Yeah, I just hope she's ok".
-meanwhile on the bus-
The bus was in a traffic jam as other cars were trying to escape. The streets were packed, And some people went on foot.
Inside the bus, Takashi's group were all resting. Although Saya had refused to sleep as she spent the whole night thinking.
Not to mention they all had to hear Shido's non stop talking.
'Only with discipline can we create a plan as a group, For example. Worrying about the safety of our families' Saya thought.
Saya was thinking more and more until she looked over at Kohta.
"Hirano" Saya said as she woke him up.
Kohta moved a bit before waking out of his sleep.
"Ngah..ah...Takagi, Good morning" Kohta said.
Saya sighed "You were sleeping like a rock" she said.
Kohta just scratched the side of his face.
"Heh, Sorry" he then looked out the window "Were are we now?" he asked.
"We're in a traffic jam" a voice said across from them, Kohta and Saya looked over to see Ross with his eyes closed as Saeko was laying her head on his shoulder sleeping.
"Any ideas?".
Ross just slowly shook his head.
"No, None I'm afraid".
That's when Kohta looked out the window "It would have been if we hadn't gone towards the city" he said, That's when Saya spoke up.
These cars have no way of getting out" she said, That's when Kohta saw a plane fly by.
"Oh, The offshore airport" he said.
"There's a harbor there too. It seems as if the populated areas are the most dangerous, So they all must be trying to get to some island somewhere. Isolated places like that are bound to have less people living there" Saya said. "If they were dealing with this properly, Planes would be heading for hokkaido or kyuushuu".
"Should we go that way too?" Kohta said.
"It wouldn't work buddy, We're getting nowhere fast and we're moving too slow" Ross said, Saya nodded "Indeed, Not only that. The self defense force and the American army have 'them' under control in many areas and they must have accepted that they can't really trust anyone" said said.
She then adjusted her glasses as she spoke again.
"Someday the whole world will feel that way. If people are unable to come to terms with the outbreak of 'them what will you do?" she asked both Ross and Kohta.
Kohta smiled "I'll do what I can" he said.
Ross nodded "Same here" he said.
Saya however thought of something.
"But will the rest of the world think that way? On the other hand, If they all continue with their lives, They'll have to realize it's necessary to maintain the communities" she said, Kohta smiled "You're really smart Takagi" he said.
Saya then pointed her thumb back at Shido.
"What are you talking about? That bastard knows that already. He's using it to his own advantage, But he doesn't understand a thing. You with me? He was able to realize it in just half a day" she said.
That's when Kohta has a serious look in his eyes.
"Should we kick him out?" he said.
Saya shook her head.
"I don't know" she said "More importantly, How are we going to survive? We need to think of a plan first. Hmm, Ross doesn't have anything at the moment. But I know he'll think of something" she said as she looked over at Ross.
Kohta sighed.
"Takagi, You like Ross don't you?" he asked.
Saya gasped as she turned to him "Don't say stupid things like that!" she said.
"Aheam".
Saya then turned to see Shizuka and Saeko standing next to her, Saya just looked at them as she got up from her seat.
"Think what you want" Saya said "If he gives us trouble, We can force him to leave".
They then heard Ross sigh.
"Ross, What's wrong?" Saeko asked.
Ross had his arms crossed.
"That man is testing my patience" he said.
In the back of the bus, Shido was preaching to his followers.
"Take pride in the fact that we will not become forgotten like the rest of fujima highschool. We were the ones who had the ingenuity to take a bus. Miyamoto and Komuro did not fit in with the likes of us! Let's work together for our mutual survival! By working together, We will triumph over this crisis!" he said.
Ross then got from his seat.
"That's it!" He said.
Before Ross could go to the back of the bus to give Shido the beating he deserved. Kohta, Shizuka, And Saeko held him back.
"Ross calm down, Don't lose your cool now" Shizuka said trying to calm him down. Saya glanced back at Shido who was still preaching.
"This is getting bad" she said as she turned back to her friends.
Saeko nodded "Indeed. He's acting like he's trying to get us to join a new religious cult" Saeko said.
"It's not "like" it; That's exactly what he's doing. A new religious cult...father Shido wants us to be his first disciples" Saya said "Look at those people listening to him".
Ross just tapped his foot "You know..." he said getting everyone's attention, He then started to place his hand on his chin "We could just leave and find our own way around" he said. Saeko pondered at his idea.
"He's right. With road like this, It might be a good idea to leave the bus behind. If we somehow crossed onbetsu bridge, Though we'd be going the opposite direction that higashi police is in" she said.
That's when Ross realized something.
"Wait, What about everyone's family?" he said.
Saeko spoke up "My father is the only one in my family, And he's overseas for a martial arts tournament" she said, Shizuka then added into the conversation.
"Ooh, Umm, Speaking of which, Where do live Takagi?" Shizuka asked.
Saya just shrugged.
"Just like Komuro, On the other side of onbetsu bridge" she said.
"Ahh, My family's gone right now, So um, I'll just go where you guys go" Kohta said.
"Where is your family Hirano?" Saeko asked.
"My dad deals in jewelry, So he's in holland on business. My mom's a fashion designer, So she's in Paris right now" he said, That's when Saya shouted.
"Since when has your life been set up like some outdated fictional character's!?".
Shizuka then giggled "If this was a manga, Your dad would be the captain of the passenger ship from another country" she said.
Kohta just scratched the back of his head "That was my grandpa. My grandma was a violinist" he said, Saya just held her head "I-it's perfect..." she mumbled.
Shizuka then looked at Ross with a smile.
"Well I guess this could kinda be like a manga, Since Ross has super powers" she said with a smile, Ross just chuckled.
"Good point, I guess in a way it could be one" he said "But what about you Shizuka? Do you have any family?" he asked.
Shizuka shook her head "I don't have any family and relatives all live far away" she said "I hate to ask, But...I don't really like Shido", Everyone smiled as they then headed out the door, But not before a certain voice stopped them.
"What's wrong everybody? We're supposed to be working together" Shido said.
Everyone turned to him.
"It's a bit embarrassing to say so Shido, But we have our own goals. This isn't a school trip, So we don't have an obligation to associate with you" Saya said.
Tsunoda quickly got up from his seat.
"Why you little bitch!" he said before Shido stopped him.
"Hmm...very well" Shido said as he held his hands together "I can see you've already decided, So please be my guest and do as you please Takagi. Japan is a free country after all" he said.
The group then started to leave until Shido spoke again.
"However..." he said as he licked his lips.
They stopped and looked at him.
"Marikawa is in big trouble" he said "We cannot afford to lose our nurse", That's when Ross started to grit his teeth, Letting a bit of blood come out of his mouth.
'Is he serious!? He just wants to use Shizuka as his own little fuck toy! I've had it with this bastered! I'm gonna rip him apart! I'll cut him down! I'll KILL HIM!' Ross thought.
Shido continued "So you'll stay here, Will you not? We have poor students who need you. Well then, Marikawa. If you stay here, Takagi and her friends will too. We need you to rely on in times of need. After all, All these students are depending on you".
Ross then stepped forward.
"Everyone leave, I'll take care of this" he said as his hair shadowed his eyes.
"Ross, I got your back!" Kohta said.
Ross turned to his friends as he let his bright yellow eyes appear "Thanks Kohta, But I'm at full strength now. I can handle this, But stand outside the door in case anything happens ok" he said. Kohta stared at Ross's bright yellow eyes, He knew what his friend was going to do.
Kohta nodded at him "Right! Show him the wrath of a thunder god Ross!" he said as he went with the girls, Saeko turned to Ross.
"You're a real man, Both of you" she said as she followed the others.
Ross nodded as he then glared at Shido with his bright yellow eyes, His hair started to get longer, And it started to become black. He then had that wicked smile on his face.
Shido just looked at Ross in disbelieve.
'What...what just happened to his hair? It grew out, And started to turn black. And his eyes, They were brown. But now there yellow, Just what is this child?' he thought as Ross started to smile more.
"I have had it up to hear with your crap! You may insult my friends, And preach bullshit like working together! BUT! I'm not going to allow someone like you to use Shizuka, Saya, Saeko, Kohta. Or anyone of my friends as you see fit! You stepped out of line with what you just said Shido! And now, Now your going to pay for it!". Ross then walked over to him slowly as he let some of his blue lightning surge in his hands.
Shido started to back up.
"N-now Hikatori, Let's not get any odd ideas now. After all I am a teacher" he said trying his best to reason with the boy, Ross then started to turn his smile into a frown.
"Your status as a teacher means nothing to me!" he said, Just then he saw Tsunoda come after him. Ross then charged up his right fist as he then punched Tsunoda right in the chest, Tsunoda felt as if he had been hit by a truck as he quickly fell to the ground writhing in massive pain.
"Guess your the little bitch now" Ross said as he walked over him. Shido backed up more until his back hit the wall of the bus.
Ross stopped as he looked Shido in the eyes as he then crossed his arms.
"Like I said before, I'm going to make you pay!" he said as he then cocked his left fist back. Shido panicked, He was beyond terrified. Just as Ross was about to slam his fist into the man he felt someone grab him.
"Let it go Ross, You don't have to do this" a voice said, Ross turned around to see that it was Yuuki.
"Yuuki..." Ross said.
Yuuki just held onto him tightly "Just let him go Ross, Just let him go" she pleaded. Ross just stared at her as he then glared at the man in front of him.
Ross then lowered his fist as he looked at Yuuki.
"A-alright...fine, I won't hurt him" he said.
Yuuki smiled at him.
"Thank you Ross" she said as she kissed his cheek, That's when Ross picked her up bridle style.
"R-Ross, What are you?" she said.
Ross just looked at her as his eyes started to show there brown color again "I told you Yuuki, I would make sure to get you out of this guys grip with my friends" he said with a smile, Yuuki smiled more as she nuzzled her head on his neck.
"Yeah, I remember" She said, He then walked with her in his arms.
Shido however was not done.
"Now hold on a minute! That's not fair! You can not take one of My students! She is part of our group not yours! You cannot have one of ours if we can't have one of yours!" he said, Ross stopped walking as he turned to Shido.
"Yuuki is a very dear friend to me, And we are very close with one another. I would have lost my mind, Knowing that she would be under your control. Yuuki is very important to me. And I will make sure to always protect my friends from any threat" he said, Yuuki was speechless at his words.
'I never knew you care about me like that, I'm really that important to you huh?' Yuuki thought as she held onto Ross more.
Tsunoda then got to his feet as he was still holding onto his stomach.
"Like...hell your taking Yuuki from us!" he said as he went after Ross again, Ross then glanced at Yuuki.
"You might want to look away" he said, Yuuki was a bit confused by what he just meant. Then as soon as Tsunoda could hit him, Ross then let his right hand surge with blue lightning as he stopped Tsunoda's fist and gripped it tight.
Tsunoda was then on his knees in pain as Ross then turned his blue lightning to red. Yuuki was in shock.
"Ross! H-how are you able to do that!?" she asked him.
Ross was still holding Tsunoda's hand until he heard a crack in his fist. Tsunoda yelled in pain as Ross let his fist go.
"I'll explain all of this latter, Let's just get out of here" he said as they came off the bus. Shido was speechless at what he just saw.
'So he did have something to hide after all, With that kind of power I could have had him for my own personal gain. Dammit!' Shido thought as he then walked to the door and slammed it. The other students were shocked at what Ross did, Kurokami was in sheer terror since he knew first hand not to mess with the boy.
"T-teacher..." one student said.
Shido wiped his head a bit as he then turned to his students.
"Well, Now we're rid of all those pests!" he said, that's when they all heard slam on the side of the bus.
"I HEARD THAT MOTHERFUCKER!" Ross yelled as he ran to catch up with his friends. Shido just watched him as he ran off.
'This isn't over, mark my words Hikatori' Shido thought.
-with the others-
Ross caught up with his friends.
"Sorry we're late guys" he said as he placed Yuuki on her feet, Saya quickly walked up to his face.
"What the hell is she doing here with us!? She was part of Shido's group!" she said, Ross held up his hands defensively at her outburst.
"Hey come on! Lighten up, I know Yuuki. She's alright" he said. Everyone had hard glares at Yuuki, since she was with Shido's group they didn't trust her.
Yuuki then ran behind Ross.
"Ross is right! I've known him since day one when we were in school. We have a very strong bond, And I would never want to hurt him in any way!" she said.
Everyone just looked at her until Ross spoke up.
"Yuuki is right, I have known her since I first came to the school. We were in the same home room, Don't worry guys. I promise you all that she's 100% alright" he said as he patted Yuuki on the head as she started to blush.
"Oh Ross stop it!" Yuuki said happily.
Ross just smiled at her, He then glanced at his friends only to see Saya Twitching and Saeko with her arms crossed.
Ross just gave them a sheepish smile.
"Hehehe, Anyway...do we all know were we're going? Because I really don't know this area very well" he said, Saya stopped her Twitching as she crossed her arms.
"For the time, We should make sure onbetsu bridge is even cross-able" she said, Kohta then jumped in the conversation.
"It's probably blocked off, This isn't the kind of traffic this place normally gets" he said.
"Crap, Now what?" Ross said.
Just then.
"Hey!".
Everyone then turned to see who had called out to them.
"Hey look! That's-" Shizuka was cut off as Rei then jumped on her.
"Shizuka!" Rei said happily.
"Goodness, Miyamoto" Shizuka said as she held her.
Saeko walked over to Takashi "Glad to see your unharmed" she said.
Takashi smiled "You too Busujima" he said, he then felt a tug on his arm as he turned to see Saya.
"What about me?" Saya said.
Takashi smiled "I-I'm glad You're okay too Takagi" he said.
He then saw Ross.
"Ross, glad to see you made a full recovery" Takashi said.
Ross smiled "I'm just glad nothing happened to the both of you" he said, Takashi laughed.
'Oh but your gonna kill me when you find out what happened to Rei' Takashi thought, Rei then quickly grabbed onto Ross.
"Ross!" Rei said as she held onto him tightly. She then glanced at Yuuki "What's she doing here!?" Rei said, Ross rubbed her head "I'll explain latter Rei" he said.
Rei nuzzled her head on his chest "Oh Ross, So much happened. We ran out of gas on our bike, We found some weapons on the way, I got attacked but Takashi saved me, and-".
Ross quickly stopped her.
"I'm sorry, Did you say that you were attacked?" he said.
Rei nodded.
"mhm, There was this guy that was going to rape me, But Takashi shot him in the arm. I was so scared" she said, Ross then held onto Rei more as he then glanced at Takashi.
"so...Rei was about to be raped huh..." Ross said as a few sparks came from his body.
'Oh shit!' Takashi thought as he then started running.
Ross gently let go of Rei as he ran after Takashi.
"Get back here Takashi! I just wanna talk to you!" Ross said as he chased him down. As Takashi was running, He realized the reason why he made Ross leader. It wasn't because of his powers.
It was because he was overprotective and willing to put his life on the line for his friends no matter the cost.
