Chapter 1841 Amy

I don't own Bleach or any of the powers and gear used in this story.

Dusk, Kir, and Yoshiro comes out of a portal into a train station where there was a crashed train and some zombies.

"Great. Zombies." Dusk mutters.

"Don't worry, we can handle them." Yoshiro takes out his sword.

Dusk pulls out a short sword perfect for his size.

"I really hate zombies. Its feels so disrespectful for them to exist." Dusk admits.

"It's what exists, our friends had to fight those in that other world." Yoshiro said.

"Yeah, but I am a god, and I went through enough battle to respect the sanctity of the dead. No one should disrespect their deaths like this." Dusk said sadly.

"Well demi god." Yoshiro corrected him.

"How am I a demi? I took the power of a god and killed him." Dusk asks as he quickly stabs one Zombie in the head.

"I think its mostly Dusk since you are pretty young and you haven't been one longer than a year." Kir said.

Yoshiro charges forward punching a dead's head off.

The zombies they killed then dissolves.

"Well, we don't have to worry about them coming back." Dusk said. "Still I feel bad for their families even more now."

"We didn't know they were like this so don't let it get to you." Yoshiro said.

Dusk nods still sadden but quickly moves to take out more.

"Let's check inside." Yoshiro looks at the train.

Dusk nods as they head over to it.

They see the mess and looked around, but then a woman comes out of the train.

"Amy!" She calls out.

They went after the source, the duo then saw a woman who seem to be looking for someone.

"Let's go help her." Kir said with hearts in his eyes.

"Easy there Kir." Dusk said. "We will."

Yoshiro goes in first. "Better I start."

She then sees him.

"Have you see a little girl?" She asks him quickly.

"Not right now. Are you alright miss?" He asked.

"I'll be fine. I need to find Amy." She said.

"Don't worry, we'll help." Yoshiro said.

"We?" She questions and that's when Dusk and Kir comes into her view.

"Hi." Dusk waves as he grabs Kir beak.

Kir struggles to break free but Dusk was too strong.

"Don't act up. She is looking for someone." Dusk whispers

"This is my friend Dusk." Yoshiro said.

"And the bird is Kir." Dusk said.

"Nice to meet you." She said. "I'm Lana."

Dusk then pretends to see something.

"Be right be." He said as he goes out of sight and pulls a pistol which was an Astra Model 903 out of the Gates of Babylon with a box of ammo. He then comes back and hands them to Lana. "Found these."

"Where did you get them?" Yoshiro asked.

"Found them." Dusk said being honest. He had found them before when visiting a world so he decided to take them and other weapons he found just in case they were needed for something.

The trio went out to look for Amy.

"Psst Yoshiro. I can give you some of the guns I collected if you want them." Dusk said. "I mostly just have them in case we need to arm some people in situations like these."

"We need to focus on finding more survivors." Yoshiro said.

"Right. But the offer is still on the table since I don't need all of them." Dusk said.

Lana looks around for any clues, Dusk then sees a man.

"Hey there is someone over there." Dusk said pointing at the man's direction.

Yoshiro goes towards him.

"Hey!" He calls out.

"Well I'll be. Someone else is alive." He said relieved.

He goes up to the man. "Excuse me."

"Hey the name is Marcello." He said.

"Are you alright?" Yoshiro asked.

"Yeah just a slight wound." Marcello said.

"Let me help." Yoshiro helps patch him up.

"Thanks." Marcello said as Dusk, Kir, and Lana comes over to them.

"How's he?" Dusk said.

"A kid?" Marcello questions in surprise.

"Now is not the time for that." Yoshiro takes said.

"Alright." Marcello said.

"Have you see a little girl?" Lana asks.

"A little girl? No you're the only three I seen so far

"Damn." Dusk said.

Lana gets more worried.

"Hey I know of a place with a bunch of phones. A buddy of mine works there. Or I hope he still does." Marcello said a bit worried about his buddy. "If we worked together we can get pass the monsters and get there."

"It's worth a shot." Yoshiro said.

"Amy might be farther ahead." Dusk said.

"You might be right." Lana said.

They went forward trying to find anything on the way.

They found a lock gate.

"Great its locked." Dusk said.

"Ever since they put up those new DNA Locks its hard to get around." Marcello said before pulling out something and handing it to Lana. "This can help."

"What's that?" Dusk looks.

The gate sparks.

"It a tool to get pass them DNA Locks. Its called a DNA Cracker." Marcello said as he leads them to a different place. "There might be one for the place that controls the gate."

Yoshiro goes forward to be the one to fight in case something happens.

Some zombies came but Yoshiro quickly takes them down as they found some things.

"What are these?" Lana asks.

"Something that protects you from the infection for a short time." Marcello said.

"Wait they already have something like this?" Dusk frowns getting suspicions. Yoshiro was also the same. Someone was behind this outbreak, and this was making them mad.

Dusk looks at Marcello and something is off around here.

"Yeah but don't know why." Marcello said as they found the room with the controls for the gate. "Now scan the lock with the Cracker."

Lana does so as it pins some locations.

"Those are the bodies we need to scan. One of them can unlock this door." Marcello explains.

Yoshiro got confused.

"Why doesn't it just say the one needed?" Dusk asks. Marcello shrugs.

"I don't know. I didn't make it nor do I know how it works that much besides the DNA scanning." Marcello said honestly. "A buddy gave it to me."

"Okay." Dusk said.

Lana then follows the map to a room with a bunch of bodies but something else was there.

"Careful that's place is infected. Breathe it in too much and we'll turn into them." Marcello said.

"Wait I think I see something over there. Let me go check real quick." Dusk said leaving for a minute before coming back with four gas masks. "Found these."

Yoshiro figures out that Dusk was using the Gates of Babylon to bring these out as he takes one.

He puts it on and goes forward.

Lana does the same as she scans the bodies. Dusk also puts the mask on and looks for anything interesting.

"Find anything?" Dusk asked.

"None of them are a matched." Lana said.

"We'll have to check somewhere else." Yoshro said.

"You know while you guys are doing that if Yoshiro gives me a boost I can make it over the fence and look for Amy while you guys unlock the gate." Dusk said seeing Lana get more and more worried about Amy.

"Well okay." Yoshiro lifted him up.

Dusk gets over the fence with Kir following him.

"I'll look for her Ms. Lana don't worry." Dusk said before moving to find Amy.

"Trust him. He's pretty sneaky." Yoshiro said.

"Are you sure? He's just a kid." Marcello said also worried.

"Don't worry. He went through a lot." Yoshiro smiles.

"The sooner we find the body the sooner we can find him and Amy." Lana said.

Meanwhile Dusk and Kir were looking for Amy.

"Since the zombies might hear us calling for her, we got to do this quiet." Kir said.

"Yeah which I think I got a lead on something. I can feel something." Dusk said as they head towards it.

"Something?" Kir asks.

"A power that is starting to awaken." Dusk said.

"Like what?" Kir said.

"Hard to say." Dusk said. "I think it might be something like Psychic powers but at the same thing its hard to explain."

"Sound esper." Kir said.

"Could be." Dusk said as they moves to the side of the fencing and moves a set of crates on a wagon that was in front of a bathroom. "Its here."

"Well check them." Kir said.

They enter the bathroom and sees a pair of legs in one of the stalls.

"Amy? I met your friend Lana and helping her looking for you." Dusk said as calmly and as gentle as possible.

"Amy." He knocks.

But she doesn't come out.

"I think I got an idea." Dusk pulls out his MP3 player and plays Sanctuary by Nami Tamaki. "Maybe some music will help."

"Hear it." He puts it at the edge.

She listens to it as Dusk also hands over papers the English lyrics so she knows what Nami was singing.

He hopes it works, Amy listens to the music and reads the lyrics in awe.

"Can you come out?" He asked.

She slowly does so as Dusk smiles.

"I'm Dusk. Nice to meet you Amy." He said. "The bird with me is Kir."

It nodded at her.

Amy looks at Kir with a curious look before petting him, Dusk looks and hopes he doesn't break silence.

"Should be ok since we're close to the fencing. Need to head to the fence so they can see I found her." Dusk mutters.

He takes her hand and they went out.

They then see Yoshiro, Lana, and Marcello coming out of the train and they see them.

"Amy!" Lana shouts as she runs towards the fence.

"Somehow she got into that bathroom that was covered by those crates. Either she did it herself or someone helped her." Dusk said.

"Either that or maybe someone just pushed the crates during a panic." Yoshiro suggested.

"Could be." Dusk said.

"Well, I be. There was a little girl." Marcello said.

"We found the right body, so we just need to crack the lock and power down the gate." Yoshiro said.

"Well then me and Amy will wait here." Dusk said. Amy nods as she pets Kir more making him happy.

"They seem a little... Too close." Yoshiro stares.

"Amy has Autism." Lana said.

"Ah so the bird is a comfort animal." Marcello said.

"Makes sense since we're dealing with zombies." Dusk said. "That can wreck havoc on anyone."

"Well we have experience with children like her. A friend has a friend that's similar to her." Yoshiro said as he remembers Tony.

"Really?" Lana asks. Yoshiro nods. "Then maybe they can become friends."

"Maybe, but now let's focus on getting out of here." Yoshiro said.

Lana nods as they quickly heads to the control room. Dusk sighs as he looks at his medallion Noah gave him.

"I really need to check on them soon." Dusk mutters. "While I'm at it maybe ask for help in making Tusk a better place since it's a wasteland."

He watches Amy as she looks down.

"Do you want to listen to another song?" He asks her.

She nodded.

"How about this song?" He suggests pulling up Words to Me by Sugar Ray

She smiles. He plays it causing the music to start, he wonders how she feels.

She listens to the music with a slight smile. He smiles back at her.

'Looks like Dusk made a new friend. Or girlfriend.' Kir thinks.

Dusk glares since he knows what he's thinking.

"You know I'm too young for that stuff." Dusk whispers to Kir.

They just kept going.

Eventually the sparks on the fence's gate dies down and the trio came back to the gate. Lana presses the button causing it to open and she hugs Amy

Yoshiro goes in front preparing for anything.

"Amy are you ok?" Lana asks. Amy nods. "Thank you Dusk and Kir."

"No problem." Dusk shrugs it off before muttering another part to himself. "A true king and God looks out for the people they're in charge of and as well as the ones they're not."

Yoshiro covers his mouth before they could hear the last one. "Don't mind him, he imagines too much for his age."

"What did he say?" Marcello questions confused as he didn't hear. Lana also didn't hear what he said but Amy did and tilts her head.

"it's nothing, just his imagination." He then whispers to Dusk. "Don't say stuff like that or we'll be seen as insane."

"Sorry he came into my head." Dusk said whispering back as he was referring to Gilgamesh. "I don't want to be like him, and I spoke my mind out loud by accident. You have no idea how much... Never mind."

"Look, I understand, but just be normal." Yoshiro said.

"Easy said than done." Dusk mutters.

"Then try it little buddy."

Dusk sighs and nods. They kept going as Amy felt safer with Dusk.

Dusk seeing some zombies quickly takes them out.

"Rest in peace." He mutters.

Yoshiro slashes another that came, Lana and Marcello was surprised at how quickly they took them down.

"How are you taking them down so easily?" Lana asks.

"Um practice. We learned how to fight with swords." Dusk said.

"And lots of training." Yoshiro flexes.

Lana blushes lightly at this as Yoshiro was in good shape.

"But no time." He marches forward.

Dusk finds another vial and keeps it.

'Leonidas might want it. Ah I don't know if we should capture one of these zombies for him to study.' Dusk thinks since Leonidas might be able to make a vaccine for this.

But for now trying to capture one is too dangerous.

They eventually came across a locked door with a small hole on the side.

"I got it." Dusk said crawling underneath it and presses a button to unlock the door.

"Good job." Yoshiro said.

"I'm just glad there wasn't a zombie in there." Marcello said.

"I wouldn't let them catch me." Dusk said.

Amy gets a bit worried that if there was Dusk could have gotten hurt.

Yoshiro patted her back. "Don't worry. He's pretty agile."

She looks at Yoshiro in curiosity.

"He's right." Dusk said. "Besides I didn't see any feet."

"Let's keep going." Yoshiro said.

They nod as Lana presses another button to unlock the next door.

Yoshiro enters through it first.

Before Lana and Amy follows him Lana grabs a radio and something that she places on her shoulder.

Dusk looks at the device.

"What is that?" Dusk asks.

"I forget the name but I think it tells you your health. Green is good while red is bad." Marcello said.

"So like a heart monitor?" Yoshiro said.

"Yeah." Marcello nods.

"Still only one here? Did somehow leave them behind?" Dusk wonders. "I guess because of the zombies they left in a hurry but both doors were locked. If they had the time to do that, why didn't they take their gear too?"

"Maybe, the guy that owned it died." Yoshiro said.

"Could be and they were or are one of the zombies." Dusk said.

"At least having it will help." Yoshiro said.

"Yeah." Lana nods.

"Now where to?" Dusk said.

Lana looks and sees another door. She heads towards it and see it was locked with a computer near it. Lana directs Amy to it.

"This is a game for you Amy. Can you help us?" Lana asks as Amy starts to hack it

"Game?" Dusk said.

"To her these are games. She is quite skilled with them so maybe when she grows up she might become a skill system engineer." Lana said. While they were waiting Marcello starts to talk about why he was still in the train station.

Dusk watched Amy and wonders if she will be alright.

But then she unlocks the door.

"Good job Amy." Lana said smiling. Dusk then gains a thoughtful look on his face. He knows the others are making their own groups like Hank's Flash group and Eric's Batman group so maybe he should make his own for his Red-X persona.

'What would I even call it?'

He then shrugs and decides to work on it later since right now he needs to focus. They went forward. One path was blocked but Lana picks up a pipe in another way.

"Just in case." She said as she has a few so far.

"Better safe than sorry." Yoshiro said.

Dusk and Kir nods as well. They then moves to the gated route.

"Fu-fudge! The way to the security PC is cut off. We need to go around." Marcello said. They then see a mostly destroyed path with a narrow walkway.

"I got this." Dusk said as he goes forward down the path.

He puts his arms to the sides to balance himself.

Amy, Lana, and Marcello becomes concerned about this.

"Don't worry Dusk got this." Yoshiro said as Dusk makes it past.

He waves back at them to show he's alright.

Amy was still worried but waves back. Dusk and Kir then starts to make their way to the security PC

"Now where is it?" He looks around.

He then moves towards where the gate is and sees a button. Kir presses it causing the gate to open.

"Presto."

"Any troubles?" Lana asks in concern.

"No zombies here. Which I don't know is a good sign or a bad one since we haven't encountered any in a while." Dusk said.

"Well let's keep going before more come." Yoshiro said.

Everyone nods.

"I saw another Security room." Dusk said. "If there is another opening I can get it which its weird that there are those openings."

"Maybe they were damaged. Who knows." Yoshiro shrugs.

"Yeah. By the way I haven't seen any zombie animals yet. But then there aren't any rats. Which means either this is a virus affecting humans only or something else is going on." Dusk said.

"I think the station's cleaning is just that good and there are no rats." Lana said.

"Maybe." Dusk said. Yoshiro was frowning as either way Dusk is right to worry. there were no animals yet he doesn't think he saw any animal corpses. Maybe this station is one of those places that doesn't allow animals but if it wasn't one of those places than its weird. Then again most animals are fast so they must have gotten away and been evacuated with the humans.

"Either way, we should be lucky that there isn't."

Yoshiro already heard enough of zombie animals back at the world of Natalia.

"Right." Dusk nods before they head to the security office which was locked but they found another opening and Dusk went through it and unlocks the door for them.

"Thank you." Lana said.

"No problem." Dusk said.

Amy goes behind Dusk to feel safer.

Dusk and Lana becomes a bit surprised before Dusk thinks she must be sensing his powers since he can sense her growing Psychic Powers.

Amy grabs on to his shirt as they went.

They then see a bunch of zombies in cages.

"What in the world?!" Lana exclaims in surprise.

"Why is there captured zombies?" Dusk questions. "I got a bad feeling about this."

Yoshiro rubs his head staring at them.

"Yoshiro and Ms. Lana you might want to shoot them now while they're in there." Dusk said.

"Why?" Marcello asks.

"Because if they somehow get out in the next minute, who do you think they'll after?" Dusk asks with sarcasm.

Yoshiro starts shooting one by one right away. Lana shoots at a couple but she was missing a lot.

"Dang it." She sighs.

"Have you ever used a gun before?" Yoshiro asks.

"No I haven't." She shakes her head.

He then holds her arms up. He stands close behind and helps with her aim making her blush.

"Just relax and shoot."

She takes a deep breath and shoots. The bullet then shoots the zombie down.

"There, your a badass." Yoshiro said.

She blushes redder at his praise.

They take care of the ones there and kept going.

Beyond the gate was more zombies caged up. Lana presses the button to open up the gate but as they go into the room the cages starts to open up!

"Looks like we need to fight them off." Dusk said.

Yoshiro starts to shoot at them first, Lana does so as well as Amy clutches onto Dusk.

He holds Amy to protect her from any harm. Yoshiro and Lana takes them as quickly as possible. Dusk hands his sword to Marcello.

"Just in case." Dusk said as he realizes his main task would be to protect Amy.

Dusk takes Amy to get some distance away.

Marcello was then attacked by one but he manages to fight it off and stab it in the head. Yoshiro charges forward taking many of them down.

"Not much left." Lana said a bit relieved as she manages to headshot one.

"Keep going!" Yoshiro said.

"Looks like they're about done." Dusk said as he was getting a bit bored since he wasn't doing much. Kir was the same as he sits on Dusk's shoulders. Dusk wonders if he should pretend to find something again and give it to Lana.

He then saw a crow stare at him outside, Dusk blinks wondering why a crow was looking at him.

It screeches as many crows came inside to attack.

"Oh you have to be freaking kidding me?!" He shouts as he pulls out another gun and starts shooting them. "Good thing I remember to grab this!"

He makes sures Amy is behind him while he fights against the crows.

Marcello helps by slicing some. Yoshiro and Lana after finishing off the Zombies shoots at the crows.

Dusk holds Amy as they went to a hiding spot.

'Damn it! I really wish I can use my powers right now!' Dusk thinks.

Amy clutches onto him tighter scared by the birds. Kir was also cursing the fact they can't fight at full power in his head.

Yoshiro came and shoots them down.

"Looks like Dusk was right about there being zombie animals." Lana said wincing as she was being pecked and scratch by some of the crows she missed.

Yoshiro cuts them to pieces.

Marcello managed to help though he still got pecked at and scratched up.

Dusk then shoots the last ones. "How is everyone?"

"A bit hurt but ok." Lana said.

"Same." Marcello said.

"Okay patch up we need to go." Yoshiro said.

"With what?" Marcello questions. "We don't have any bandages."

He looks around and uses tape to wrap around they're wounds.

"That's going to hurt when we take them off." Marcello winces.

"We gotta improvise." Yoshiro said.

"Yep. But we might find a medikit later." Dusk said.

"Until then, keep them on." Yoshiro goes forward.

Lana reloads her gun.

"I'm starting to run low." She frowns as she wasted too many bullets.

"Then go for headshots to save up." Yoshiro said.

"I'm trying to. I haven't used a gun until today." Lana said.

"I'll help you."

"Thanks." She said with a light smile.

"Okay let's go." Dusk said.

They then starts moving out of the room but not before checking if there was anything else they could use.

They went to another side as Yoshiro looks around with his sword.

Lana picks up another pipe before handing it to Marcello.

"It's better to be ready." Dusk said.

She nods in agreement. They look though some of the area but didn't see much but Dusk pretends to find a knife and hands it to Lana.

"Here."

"Thanks." She said. "How are you finding all of this?"

"Don't know. Whenever I'm looking for something or not I always seem to find something good." Dusk said. "I won pretty much all scavenge hunts I have been in."

"You win too many times." Yoshiro said.

Dusk shrugs.

"Yeah but you got to admit its pretty useful I have this Skill." Dusk said. "If I didn't we might miss something important or useful."

Yoshiro then looks for any ememies.

"Any zeds yet?

"Nope." Dusk said.

They eventually came across a gate shutting switch.

Dusk goes up to it.

He looks at it and see it was connected to a gate besides it.

"Guess if we were overrun back there, we could have use this to block them." Dusk said.

"Good." Yoshiro nodded.

"Still its weird. Who captured those zeds and did they know they would be released when we opened that gate?" Dusk frowns. "It feels like that was a trap but for who and why?"

Yoshiro frowns. He was also having the same thoughts as Dusk. Something deeper was going on.

Amy was getting worried a she goes back to Dusk side. Dusk takes and holds her hand seeing the worry on her face.

"It's best we keep going." Yoshiro said since she's getting nervous.

He then noticed a kids drawing and picks it up.

"A drawing?" Marcello questions seeing it.

Lana gasped since it's Amy's.

"How did that get here?" She questions in surprise.

Dusk checks it too and saw the image of a bad man. Dusk frowns wondering if this person had hurt Amy.

"Is this man the reason?" Yoshiro said.

"Amy was in the "Care" of a organization called Phoenix Organization." Lana said which Yoshiro and Dusk picked up the way she said care.

"So could it mean..." Dusk and Yoshiro looked at each other.

"They're behind this?"

The two could only think of the same.

"What?" Lana questions in surprise. "But why would they make and cause a zombie outbreak?"

"We don't know the reason but theres something going up. And it's too coincidental it happened when Amy was here." Yoshiro said.

"But Amy would have died in that train crash or by the zombies." Lana points out. "If they were after her why didn't they do with more stealth and less risk?"

"They're... Loco." Yoshiro avoided a bad word.

Dusk nods in agreement.

"So we better go faster." Yoshiro said.

"While still being careful. They might have soldiers here willing to kill anyone to get Amy." Dusk said with a scowl. This was making him remember that day. So many lives lost which included the unborn children of Kalb-Hu. If Yoshiro gives him the go ahead, he'll show this Phoenix Organization the wrath of a king and demigod.

He saw Amy holding his arm out of fear. He then takes off his medallion.

"Do you want to look at this? It might help calm you down." Dusk said gently.

She takes it

"That's a nice medallon." Marcello said.

"Thanks. My Foster brother gave it to me a year ago." Dusk said smiling slightly.

Yoshiro looks at him.

"You were in Foster care?" Lana asks.

"Yeah. My mother her mind wasn't all there. It was like a coma but she could still walk and such. I think she was that way since I was a baby but not sure how long before or after I was born, she was like that." Dusk said.

"What about your father?" Marcello asks.

"He died in my mother's first month of pregnancy I think." Dusk said. "I don't know if he had any siblings or parents that are still alive. On my mother's side nobody there either."

Amy hugs him from behind.

"I do plan on finding info on my dad but not sure if I will find any." Dusk said as from what his mother told him he was from the Seekers tribes.

"Don't worry about it now." Yoshiro said.

"I know." Dusk said.

They kept going as Yoshiro still wonders what's the reason for this attack outside of just getting Amy.

They came across two doors. They try the right one but it was locked but Marcello unlocks it.

"Here we are, no door is smart enough to beat Cello and his magic key!" Marcello said.

"Don't get cocky." Dusk passes by.

There wasn't much but there was a lift on the left and a ladder on the right.

"Are we going up?" Dusk looks up.

"I think so. Though I don't see a button for the one on the left." Lana frowns.

"I'll try the ladder real quick." Dusk said heading over to it.

"Be careful." Yoshiro said.

"I will be." Dusk said climbing it before reaching the top which He looks and all he sees is another button. "There is a button up here. One of you get on the other lift. Maybe this button is for it."

He presses it. The lift moves up.

"So it does work for the lift. Who designed this?" Dusk questions as this made no sense and wastes time and resources..

"Oh great, okay Amy goes with Dusk since she feels safer with him." Yoshiro said.

"Should I climb back down then?" Dusk asks with some sarcasm. "I'm already up here."

"Get back down here! She's only safe it your here!"

"Alright jeez." Dusk said. "There is a button where the lift takes you to. I think it might be for that other door."

"Then try it." Dusk said

Lana takes the ladder and Yoshiro the lift. Lana presses the button taking Yoshiro up and he presses the button.

Amy was with Dusk since he had to get her, a gate in the room opens.

"Looks like we go this way." Dusk said.

They went towards it.

"Wait what about that other door?" Dusk questions. "We didn't check it."

"Shouldn't we at least check out just in case before going there?" Yoshiro said.

"Actually, I checked it. Its locked. We need an orange pass." Marcello said.

"Seriously? Hopefully that room is not important then." Dusk said.

"Maybe we'll find it this way." Yoshiro said.

"Yeah. Still why the heck did they design this room like this? Its a freaking waste of time and resources." Dusk shakes his head.

"Don't question things." Yoshiro kept going.

"If it makes you feel any better I agree with ya." Marcello said as they move on.

Yoshiro looks around for any potential attackers.

They then hear solders.

"Stay quiet." Dusk said. "They might be members of Phoenix."

"Hide." Yoshiro whispers.

Lana and Amy hides underneath a table while Dusk, Marcello, and Yoshiro hides elsewhere.

'Really wished I had access to Gramps' treasures besides Enkidu.' Dusk thinks.

Yoshiro looks around.

The soldiers stop at the closed gate.

"See anyone?" One asks.

"No." The second said.

"Well let's move on then. We got to find that girl." The first one said.

They went off as Amy holds on to Lana.

"Yoshiro." Dusk whispers. "Look like they are after Amy."

"I knew it. We gotta get out of here." Yoshiro said.

"Yoshiro we're going to have to use our true power and equipment. We got three people to protect." Dusk said. Kir nods in agreement.

"Only when we need to. To not cause a panic." He whispers.

"I know but this is making me angry. Having to hold back when I have the power to save lives." Dusk whispers back. "I can't let the past repeat itself."

"Calm down Dusk. I know how you feel. But if they are alerted a entire army will be sent making it worse. Since they could kidnap Amy without is knowing."

"I know." Dusk sighs. "I just hate this feeling. Knowing you have the power but can't use it for the right reasons. Makes me feel like a bad person."

"Your not. Imagine if they see us do it. They might scream and call us monsters and everything will be ruined. Plus these guys are just a bunch of guys carrying guns. Batman never needed that and he still beat them. If we have the training to surpass them all with ease, we don't even need to go all out."

"I hope so." Dusk said still uncertain.

They kept going sneaking around the place.

They moved up some stairs and sees a dead body with a pass near him.

"Bill! Bill! Please, Open the door man!" They hear a muffled voice yells as the door near the body were being pounded on and they quickly goes towards the sound. Dusk grabs the pass quickly.

"Quick open it!" Yoshiro said.

But there was no handle or place for them to try to open it.

"He's coming! He's coming!" The person yells.

Yoshiro grunts and pulls the door to open.

It was a soldier with a large mutated zombie with a bite bar in its mouth coming from behind him as it roars.

"Shoot it!"

Lana and Yoshiro shoots at it as Dusk throws some knives he had on him at the Zed.

It falls down as they went to the guy.

"Are you ok?" Marcello asks.

Dusk looks at the guy.

"Why are you here?" Dusk questions.

Yoshiro checks. "He passed out."

"Great. Do we carry him or what?" Dusk questions.

Yoshiro thinks.

They need the agent for info but they already got one non combatant being Amy and they're after her.

"Tie him up."

"We don't have any rope though." Lana said.

"Maybe we can find some that way?" Dusk points at the door they passed before.

"Don't you keep some with you?" Yoshiro whispers to Dusk.

"I do but its in my gate. I can't pull it out without them seeing it." Dusk whispers back. "If I can get away for at least half a minute I can pretend to find some."

He motions them to follow.

They head towards the door and opens it with the pass which shows them a bad infection zone with red puddles.

"Something tells me we should avoid the puddles. Me, Amy, and Marcello will stay with the soldier while you two go through this?" Dusk asks.

"Very well." Yoshiro said.

The two puts on their gas masks and enters it. As they walk Lana finds another antidote.

"Keep it safe." Yoshiro said.

"I will." She said.

He nodded and kept going.

They moved through the area and sees a opening that leads them to behind the shut gate Dusk and the others were waiting by. Lana presses the button to open it.

Yoshiro gets ready for anything as the gate opens.

"Hey there is some lockers over there." Dusk said walking to them. "I'll check them out."

"Be careful it can be a trap." Yoshiro said.

"I will." Dusk nods to Yoshiro ains he checks them out. Makeing sure nobody was watching takes out some rope from the gates of Babylon from inside of the locker. He also takes another box of ammo for Lana's gun. "Found some rope and a box of ammo."

"Well let's use it "

Dusk hands the rope to Yoshiro and the ammo to Lana. Lana reloads her gun glad to have more bullets as Yoshiro ties up the soldier.

"Okay secured."

"Good." Marcello said.

"So should we wake him up?" Dusk asks.

"Not yet, check around." Yoshiro said.

"Fine. Can I borrow your gas mask then?" He asks.

Yoshiro throws it at him, Dusk takes it and puts it on.

"I'll check out that infected zone." Dusk said.

They waited for Dusk.

Dusk sees a zombie in the office Lana and Yoshiro passed but then he sees something. It was a symbol.

"Hey guys I found something." Dusk said." It's right by the infection zone."

They quickly head to him.

"A symbol?" Yoshiro said.

Amy sees the symbol and starts to draw it. Dusk takes out a mini camera he had and takes a picture of the Symbol.

'It seems she's able to know it' He thinks.

"What is this thing?" Marcello asks.

"Do you know Dusk?" Yoshiro said.

Dusk frowns.

"Not a 100 percent sure. I know its a glyph and I can feel the power from it but also its like trying to tell me and Amy something." Dusk said.

"Something?" Lana asks.

"Use my power of quiet to take out enemies without noise." Dusk said. "I think that's what its saying."

Dusk then gets a vision. He sees a person moving in front of a glass window before they make a dome appear with the glass inside. The person breaks the glass but there was no sound of it breaking it and falling.

Dusk shakes his head.

"I know how to use it now." Dusk said as he moves to the window can creates a dome of quiet. He then breaks the window causing the glass to fall but there was no sound.

"Wow." Yoshiro said.

There was a zombie eating a corpse so Dusk throws a knife into its head killing it.

"Nice shot."

Dusk dispels the dome.

"Thanks." Dusk said. "I wonder if there is more of these Glyphs. They would be very useful to have."

"We'll have to see." Yoshiro said.

"Yeah." Dusk said as he picks up his knife. 'If we do find more then they will be useful in case Gramps show up again.'

The group continued forward.

"Wait I just remembered something." Lana said.

"What is it?" Marcello asks.

"That Glyph we use a simple version of it at the center to indicate Psisonic wards." Lana said.

"Yes?" Yoshiro Said.

"So that means there is a connection then. Did one of the soldiers make it for when and if Amy see it or is there something else going on." Dusk wonders. "Either way they didn't count on me learning on how to use them."

"That's all good and well Dusk, but we gotta go and think about it later." Yoshiro said.

"Right. Wait there is a vent." Dusk said pointing at the closet of the room the zombie was in. "I'm going to check it out."

Amy holds his hand.

"I'll be fine." Dusk said reassuring to her.

He goes to the vent and crawls through it.

He sees a blue pass on the desk and grabs while also taking out more ammo for Lana's gun from his Gates of Babylon. He opens the door and comes out.

"Found a Blue pass and more ammo for you Lana." Dusk said as he hands the pass to Yoshiro and the ammo to Lana.

"Good job." Yoshiro said.

"So far we have a yellow and a blue pass but no orange." Dusk said. "Besides that how many more passes could there be?"

"Probably a lot." Yoshiro said.

They went into the door across the broken office which was a warehouse but then they hear a zombie growling.

"Be careful." Yoshiro got ready.

"I might have a idea. Kir stays in the air and get its attention while we then take it out with a headshot from behind." Dusk said.

"That can work."

"I can also set up a dome of silence to help get close enough too and prevent it from hearing our gunshots." Dusk said.

"But don't say it out loud." Yoshiro said.

"I know that. Ready?" Dusk asks.

He nodded.

Kir flies and gets the zombie's attention and leads it into a corner as Dusk then makes a dome of silence.

He then aims at the zombie's head. Yoshiro shoots it in the head as the dome silences the gunshot.

"It's done."

"Good." Dusk removes the dome. "Kir I will get you some of Micky's bread."

"Micky's bread?" Lana questions.

"A friend makes good bread and has a bakery." Dusk said.

"Oh."

"His bread is pretty good." Dusk said. "Anyways we should look around this place before leaving."

Dusk and Kir then starts to look for stuff.

Amy kept being next to Dusk all the time.

Dusk found another decontamination syringe but they don't find anything else.

"Okay rooms checked." Yoshiro said.

"Kinda lame the only thing we found was a syringe." Dusk said as they went forward but there was another computer lock that Amy starts to hack.

"Not every place is going to have a gun." Yoshiro said.

"I was hoping for another pass." Dusk said. "We know there is a door that needs a orange pass so who knows what is in it. I really hope we don't have to retrace our steps to go back there and have to get it open so we can get yet another pass to get out of here."

"I was hoping for another pass." Dusk said. "We know there is a door that needs a orange pass so who knows what is in it. I really hope we don't have to retrace our steps to go back there and have to get it open so we can get yet another pass to get out of here."

"It must be hidden well." Yoshiro said.

"Yeah or we're not in the area it is in yet. Too bad we don't have anything to break the door down." Dusk said.

"Don't worry."

Amy then unlocks the door.

"Looks like we're good to go." Dusk said.

They moved forward to go through the door.

They then hear footsteps.

Yoshiro looks around where they might be coming.

Dusk points at the office window as they crouch with Marcello having trouble since he had the agent from earlier. Then Dusk peeks outside.

"There is a soldier in there. Like him." Dusk whispers while pointing at the agent they have with them.

"Stealthy." Yoshiro sneaks forward behind the guy.

Dusk nods as the agent paces the room he was in. With his back to them Dusk throws up a dome of silence before Yoshiro and Dusk quickly takes him down and captures him.

"Another one down." Yoshiro said.

"Yeah. Good thing we still have rope." Dusk said. "Still we can't carry both soldiers."

"Let's hide them inside a locker mething." Yoshiro suggested.

"That works. Should we take this guy's weapons?" Dusk asks.

"Yes."

"Who gets the rifle?" Lana asks.

"Who's the best shot?"

"You." Dusk said.

Yoshiro takes the gun.

Dusk grabs the soldier's pistol since soldiers always carried a pistol and takes it.

Lana inserts the cracker into the dna lock in the office they are in. Yoshiro picks up the man as they look around the area for lockers before finding a broken wall that has a room with a sink and some lockers. Plus a door. Yoshiro and Marcello places the two men in the lockers before the group went back into hallway and Lana uses a box that opens the gate in the hallway.

Dusk goes forward to check.

"Its open and there seems to be more." Dusk said before he checks the room across from them seeing a pipe before grabbing it.

"Your going to use that?" Yoshiro said.

"Maybe for a distraction." Dusk said.

"Well keep it safe."

"Of course." He said. They then head into the hallway and sees mines in one direction.

"Mines?!" Lana exclaims in surprise.

"Be careful, one step and they will explode." Yoshiro said.

"I could throw the pipe at them to make them explode but that's too dangerous." Dusk said.

"Wait those are motion sensors." Marcello said. "If you're crouching and careful while moving you can get past them."

"In that case I'll do it." Dusk said.

"Don't make Amy scared more than what she already is." Yoshiro said.

"I'm the King of Bandits. I'm the best shot we have getting past them." Dusk whispers to Yoshiro. "Its not like I have a EMP grenade unless..."

"Okay, but be careful since something might happen."

"I'll be fine." Dusk said. "I'll need the cracker since the body we need might be over there."

Dusk goes forward

He crouches as he moves past the mines carefully.

"Careful." Yoshiro whispers.

Dusk doesn't answers as he gets past them making the others breath in relief. Yoshiro gives a thumbs up.

He sees two doors. He goes into the room on the left and sees a infection zone. He sighs before pulling out a gas mask form the Gates of Babylon. He looks around and only finds a pipe which he takes.

"Just great. Nothing good here."

He then leaves the room and enters the other one. He hopes to find something useful.

He frowns as he sees another computer that needs to be hacked in order for him to go foward.

"Amy could have done this."

"I could channel Rambos' power in me and melt a hole in the door." Dusk muses.

"But then something will jump out. Didn't Eric teach you a few tricks to hack?" Kir said.

"Yeah he did." Dusk said as he walks over to the computer to try and hack it.

"Come on."

He spends a minute or two on it before it opens.

"Yes."

He sees a glass window leading to a courtyard with flames blocking one route and a door on the other route. He quickly sends a dome at it and busts the window down. He goes forward and where the door was but sees another mine way going outwards so he sneaks past it but while he was doing that he hears a man on some screens saying some religionist lines and saying this is the apocalypse. He finds a body near the flames and scans it.

"Looks like its a match." Dusk said. They then made their way back into the room but then Dusk notices another computer on the right side of the one he hacked and starts to hack that one.

"Okay let's see."

As he was hacking it he heard the male on the screens said that the Church has lots of food and water.

"Well better be a good place to check."

"If you're scared and alone make for the 2nd Church of Revelations on the corner of Oak and Vine." The man said. "Prayer is not goinf to be enough, my friends."

The voice went on as Dusk hacks. He then finished hacking it but there wasn't anything near him that opened up so he heads back to the others.

"Gotta tell the others."

He sneaks past the mines again and gets to them. He quickly tells them what he heard and found.

"Hmm." Yoshiro thinks.

"While it has food and water I'm worried it doesn't have weapons." Dusk said.

"Same." Lana agrees.

"It's better to get it and feed those in need. We are strong together enough." Yoshiro said.

"Yeah." Dusk said. "Anyways should we investigate down that hallway before going through that door?"

"If your sure,"

"Might as well." Lana said. "We might need more ammo especially if we encounter another one like before."

"Okay." Yoshiro said.

They move in the second route before checking a room on the right. There was another syringe that Lana takes.

"Those things freak me out." Dusk frowns.

"What do you mean?" Lana asks.

"He's scared of needles." Yoshiro said.

"Am not!" Dusk said.

Amy hugs him as if to say its ok to be scared of them.

He pouted a bit.

"Are you sure she doesn't have a crush on him?" Yoshiro whispers to Lana.

"I could be wrong." Lana whispers back. Dusk frowns as he knows they were talking about him and Amy but then he gains a evil smile.

"Hey Amy since Lana is your mother and she and Yoshiro are getting along does that mean he is your dad now?" He asks Amy making her look at Yoshiro with a curious and thoughtful look.

"What?" They looked at him.

Marcello chuckles as he sees what Dusk is trying to do.

"What is Amy not your daughter Lana?" Dusk asks her.

Marcello chuckles as he sees what Dusk is trying to do.

"What is Amy not your daughter Lana?" Dusk asks her.

"You do know those teases don't work on me." Yoshiro said.

But for Lana she was blushing a bit.

"How about you talk about your crush with Ellen." Yoshiro pointed out.

Amy becomes surprise at this.

"I do not have a crush on her." Dusk denies with a slight blush. "Give a girl a necklace that you have no use for and everyone thinks I like her like that."

"Yeah right." Yoshiro said.

"Besides that kind of stuff I can't really focus on right now." Dusk said. "Right now we need to get out of here and there is still more rooms to go through."

"Okay."

"Hopefully Leonidas can use these Syringes to make a vaccine." Dusk said as they look around the room notices the ladder and more space behind it but it was caged off. They go up the ladder but sees a broken floor leading to another door but there was enough floor left on the left edge hugs the wall as long as someone. "I'll go across. wait here."

Dusk starts to move towards the door.

"Be careful for any traps." Yoshiro said.

"Always am." Dusk said as he gets across and goes through the door.

He goes through the door and sees he was high up but there was no way down except if he jumps down.

"This might be the security room." Dusk muses as he then heads back

Meanwhile Yoshiro checks out another room with Marcello that was at the end of the hallway. He sees a lift but it was on the ground floor. He presses a button nearby making the lift come back up.

"There's no button on the lift itself." Yoshiro frowns as he inspects it.

"Get on and I'll press the button." Marcello said. Yoshiro does so allowing Marcello to press the button causing the lift to go down. He looks around the ground floor until he founds what he thinks is the orange pass.

"This must be it."

He heads back with Marcello as Dusk and Kir gets back as well.

"I found the pass." Yoshiro said.

"Great. I found the Security room which I think that DNA lock will get us in. Should one of us head back to that one door?" Dusk asks.

"Well most of us can't do it alone so i'll go." Yoshiro said.

"And we investigate the security room?" Lana questions.

"Yes."

"Then let's do this." Dusk said.

They split up as Yoshiro goes to check the room for the orange pass.

The rest of the group heads to the security room.

Yoshiro kept going and wonders what's behind that door.

The rest of the group enters the security group.

"Its jammed." Lana said when she tried to contact her friend. Dusk finds a note.

"Looks like there is a scrambler in the server room. I'll go look for it." Dusk said.

He goes off to find it.

As he moves and follows the sign he comes across another infected area causing him to put on a mask. Kir puts on his own mask. They go past it but there was a zombie on the left so Dusk pulls out his his main Shardsword and quickly kills it as he didn't have time to waste. He checks the door but it was locked so he went to the right and finds another door.

He tries to open it.

It opens and he enters the room. He sees a device and sees he needs to figure out the code. He goes to work on it.

"Just had to have another device." Dusk said.

He works on it until he manages to put in the right code.

"Yes."

He heads back.

"Okay I did it."

Yoshiro came back. "Just found a few things, we must hurry."

"Right." Dusk said as they went to the room as power turns back on.

The boys arrived just as Lana's call gets through.

"This is going to work, Amy." Lana said. "This is going to work..."

"Hello Ellen... This is Lana. Can you hear me?" Lana asks.

"Dr. Lavigna... There's someone calling for you on the Emergency Frequency." A man said.

"Lana! Is that you? Are you alright?!" A woman asks worried.

"We're alive if that counts." Lana said.

"Is Amy ok?" Ellen asks.

"Amy is... She's changing..." Lana said. "But... Listen Ellen, its a nightmare here. Is there anyway you can send someone to get us? The people in my train were infected."

"I think Phoenix had something to do with it." Ellen said as both guys realize another person shared their suspicions. "The Professor has sent out his army. The whole city has been contaminated. We're barricaded in the hospital trying to figure this out."

"Crap." Dusk mutters angrily as this meant that more people are suffering because of this.

"Its not behaving like a virus... It's not a contagion. Its like there was some sort of spontaneous genetic mutation. the professor has something to do with this." Ellen said but then there was static as she tries to talk more.

"Ellen? Ellen? There's static!" Lana said in frustration.

"Lana? You need to get to the hospital so I can run some tests. We stick to the same plan as before." Ellen manages to say.

"We're trapped! The power's out and we're locked in!" Lana said. "There's Phoenix Soldiers everywhere and they're after Amy!"

"Wait a minute, Lana I got George here. I'm going to ask him if he can't hack into the station's grid. Maybe locate you..." Ellen said.

The group heads to the elevator.

"Amy its going to be just fine." Lana said to Amy who was holding her hand.

Dusk goes up to Amy to see if she's okay.

With her free hand she takes one of his.

He rubs her head to calm Amy down.

Amy smiles with a light blush.

Yoshiro stares. 'Okay doesn't he not notice she has a crush.'

They get into the elevator and it moves.

Yoshiro was getting ready for anything.

"Yoshiro can I please heal Lana's arm." Dusk whispers to Yoshiro. "I don't like the look of the bite mark."

"With what?"

"I can use healing shards. Look I know you said we should keep our powers secret but we're in the elevator, there's no cameras, and they already seen me using a new power." Dusk said.

"Then silently, like say oh I have a healing thing."

"Got it." Dusk hides his left arm as he takes out a healing shard from it.

He goes up to her.

"Lana I... I have a way to heal your arm." Dusk said.

She looks at him. "How?"

"Its a power of mine." Dusk said. "But I need to concentrate on it."

"Marcello I'll heal you too after I'm done with Lana." Dusk said.

"Thanks Kid." Marcello said as Dusk starts healing Lana's arm with a healing shard.

"Any other injuries besides the arm?" Dusk asks.

"No I think i'm good."

"Are you sure? You did say you were in a train crash. I should check your head." Dusk said. 'Good thing I had some teachings on how to use these and use them before enough times. I should remember to bring Roya some medical books.'

"Dusk i'm fine, check on Amy more." Lana said.

"I will in a second but I need to finish your healing first. You're the one who knows more about this plan than us." Dusk counters as her bitemarks start to disappear. "Though if we find a vending machine or two we should hit it for some food and liquids."

"You suggesting we steal?" Yoshiro said.

"We're in the middle of zombie outbreak and there is five of us. Plus two are kids. If we have to steal from the vending machines then we can pay back the owners later. Though we don't need to steal. We got money." Dusk points out.

"What money?! I'm broke now!" Yoshiro said.

"I have money." Dusk said rolls his eyes.

"Gold doesn't count."

"I have actual US dollars and coin. I'm not stupid." Dusk said.

"You never tell us that, since we live in Japan."

"Oh. Well none of you ever asked about what kind of treasures I have." Dusk said.

"Because you try to steal from us."

"Those were pranks and testing at how good you can stop me." Dusk said.

He frowned. "Why didn't you return Kazuo's candy then?"

"Kazuo have plenty of candy and sweets. Did you see how many secret stashes he has that I found so far?" Dusk questions. "Plus I didn't keep all of it."

"And the fact you tried to hijack Leonidas vault."

"It was a challenge to test my skill." Dusk said. "Did you see how much security was on it? If I could get through that or get past some of the defenses fast enough then I could probably break into vaults half as good as that."

Dusk finishes healing Lana and checks Amy.

"He Said, try it again and you'll see his pet snakes." Yoshiro warned him.

"What if I ask for permission next time? This way I improve my skills and he can see if there is any flaws in the security." Dusk said.

"He hates it when we mess with his lab."

"Fine. Anyways Amy is fine." Dusk said as he checks and heals Marcello.

Yoshiro checks for anything else while he waits. Dusk quickly finishes up as the elevator dings and opens up. They looked as it opened.

Ellen then talks to them.

"The Metros are on automatic pilot. There's one running every fifteen minutes. You just need to get down to one. Take the North Line, seven stations... There's an entrance directly into the hospital." she said.

"Let's go!" Yoshiro said.

"Wait I sense another Glyph." Dusk said heading towards the left. They found the glyph behind some crates. Amy draws it as Dusk takes a picture. "Its called Shockwave."

"Shockwave?" Yoshiro said.

Dusk uses it on a box a few feet away pushing it back.

"Okay." Dusk looks.

"This will be useful."

They went forward as they needed to get out.

They go to the right side of the elevator and but they see both ways collapsed with debris but they a box next to a wall with a shelf on the left side of it. They climb up to the roof of the small building the box and shelf was against and see another lift plus some boards blocking the way to the stairs which Dusk uses Shockwave to get rid of the boards.

Amy was getting scared as she holds on to Dusk shirt.

Yoshiro then looks at the lift near them and presses a button to bring it down. He gets on and Lana presses it causing it to move back up.

Dusk and the others watched.

He gets up there but doesn't see much so he comes back down. They then went down the stairs.

"Nothing much there."

Ellen then talks again.

"Lana? We've got this weird theory we're going over. It looks like the only people who are turning into these monsters are citizens born in Silver City. Its weird... Have you noticed anything?" She asks.

"Weird?" Yoshiro wonders.

"That doesn't make sense. Anyone would turn into a zombie from a bite for example." Dusk said. "Unless they put something in say a vaccine for the flu."

"Unless, it's like a DNA thing, Leonidas told me about a place where a vírus was a mutation of the mad cow disease." Yoshiro said.

"Really?" Lana asks.

"Yes, he didn't say much since he's still searching."

They get passed another broken walkway and climb down a ladder before getting down another thing. Yoshiro moves some things out of the way which would allow them to backtrack without having to climb again but in the direction they are going in there was more mines.

"Perfect, more mines. I really wish Eric was here, he could have handled them." Yoshiro said.

"If we stand back I could use Shockwave to denote them." Dusk said. "Or I can sneak past them and if there is any zombies I can push them into them to take them out."

"Do option one, we don't have the time. "Yoshiro said.

"Got it." They moved some feet back as Dusk uses Shockwave to hit the mines causing them to explode.

"Go now."

They move on as Lana finds a syringe on a bench.

"Hey Dusk need a shot." Yoshiro said.

"No!"

Lana giggles at this.

Yoshiro kept going as Dusk glares at him.

They go down the stairs where there was another syringe by them. Lana picks it up. There was more mines which Dusk takes care of.

"Me thinks they don't want people to live anymore." Yoshiro talking about the mines.

"This is really making no sense. They want Amy yet they're setting up mines and causing so much destruction that we're lucky we haven't died yet!" Dusk said pissed off.

"I think they're using her fear that she wouldn't go near them." Yoshiro said.

"And what happens if she gets chased by a zombie into them?" Dusk frowns even more. "Do they expect her to somehow fend off zombies while they try to find her?"

"She's a kid so she can hide on small places.*

"And what happens if she dies due to hunger or dehydration?" Dusk retorts. "There has to be several ways that could get her without causing so much death and destruction. It makes me mad that so many lives were lost because of this method. Hell I haven't see any zombie kids and babies so far thankfully but..."

"You can't help but think there are some since this is happening all around the city." Lana said also horrified. Marcello was also horrified.

"Don't mention zombie kids our friends in the A team had to deal with them." Yoshiro whispers.

Dusk's eyes widen before his rage grows. He seriously hate these people who makes these zombie viruses and use them to cause disasters

They kept going while avoiding any mines.

They climb over some rumble where Lana picks up another pipe. They found another lift but no button.

"Ah crap two of us has to go back to that one lift." Yoshiro said remembering the button there.

"Or Kir can just fly to it and press it." Dusk said.

"Is he even strong enough?"

Kir glares at Yoshiro.

"Yes." Dusk said.

"How about I send Whelp. He's with me." Yoshiro looks at Whelp peeks out of his clothes.

"Whelp?" Lana questions.

The little creature came out of his shirt getting they're attention.

"What is that?" Marcello questions.

"He's my companion." He said as Whelp goes off.

Whelp flies towards the button and presses causing the lift the group was next to go down. He then returns to Yoshiro.

Yoshiro pets him with a smile.

They then continued. They get on but they needed to push the button again which is what Whelp did.

Lana picks up three syringes on the walkway and a passcard before she calls Ellen.

"Ellen, its me. I've found these syringes full of something that keeps the infection from developing. I think they're meta-stims. The Phoenix Soldiers are equipped with them. " She said.

"You've been shooting yourself up with them! How many did you take? You must be wired up like a Christmas Tree, Lana. Listen your sleep cycle is going to be serious out of whack." Ellen said.

"Sleep is the last thing on my mind Ellen. Have you learned anything new?" Lana asks as they go back down the lift.

"I'll run that by the team, and see if we can't figure out a way to reverse the mutation process. Its not a normal infection Lana... Its manipulating your genes. I just don't know how it works... How it flags the pattern. Why it only effects some people and not others." Ellen said a bit stressed. They then see more zombies waiting on the side of where the mines were.

"Great. Better take care of them real quick. Though how did they get here?" Dusk wonders.

"They must be following us." Yoshiro said.

"Hive minds maybe?" Dusk muses. "No scent and hearing more likely."

"That's what all zombies do, they heard them, hive minds no but maybe someone must have sent them forward. Since it's not that hard."

Lana and Yoshiro then shoots the zombies.

Dusk had to look after Amy as they do it.

The zombies try to get to them but Lana and Yoshiro kills them before they could get close.

He then slashes a few heads off

Dusk throws a couple of knives.

He then takes Any forward to keep her safe.

Eventually they took out all of the zombies.

The group rushed forward

They head into the subway using the pass Lana found to unlock the door.

"Get in quick!" Yoshiro said.

They go into it as Ellen calls again.

"Lana? Have you been developing any symptoms?" Ellen asks in concern.

"Amy's telekinetic powers are increasing Ellen. They're more powerful than her best scores in the center... By at least a magnitude." Lana said.

"I'll need to run a battery of tests to understand what's been done to her. You're certain that she is showing no signs of infection?" Ellen asks.

"No! It's the opposite. Well... She heals me every time I get sick. She's become a cure for the virus. For me at least." Lana said as they go through another door into a room with crates and boxes plus two lifts with one down and the other up.

Yoshiro wonders who Ellen is.

"Is Ellen a doctor?" Dusk asks.

"Yeah and my friend." Lana said.

"Well we should see her soon." Yoshiro said.

Lana finds another pipe plus a syringe and takes them. Dusk presses the button next to the down lift which causes the other to go down.

"Seriously? Who freaking designed these?!" Dusk said angry as this made no sense.

"Must be for a different thing." Yoshiro said.

Dusk shakes his head.

"Who's going onto the lift?" Dusk questions.

"How about you Stay close to Amy."

"Fine." Dusk said.

The others went ahead.

They go onto the walkway and walk until they reach a ladder and goes down it into the fenced area. Yoshiro moves a cage out of the way allowing them to move back into the area Dusk and Amy were waiting in. They eventually get onto the other lift and go up it. They break down some boards blocking the way forward and hugs the walls again to get passed a destroyed walkway. They go down another ladder and go behind the closed gate which Yoshiro presses the button to open it up.

"Let's see what's inside door number 2!" Yoshiro said.

"But this isn't the second One." Dusk said.

Yoshiro frowns. "It's a joke, I was making a reference."

They see another boarded up which Amy hits with Shockwave.

"Good job Amy!" Lana praises Amy making her smile. They climb over some crates and onto another walkway.

"You could praise Amy too." Yoshiro said.

To Dusk

"Fine. Amy you have good aim." Dusk said.

Amy smiles at him.

They push a button that makes something move. Yoshuto climbs back down and goes to the first boarded up area and presses another button making the same thing move. Yoshiro then climbs up a ladder and onto a small platform. Lana presses the button causing it to come back as Yoshiro then gets on it and gets on the side of the crates blocking them on walkway. He moves them out of the way.

"It's cleared."

They went forward down the stairs through another door.

"You don't have to worry about the professor anymore. We just need to get to Ellen. We're going to take you there." Lana said to Amy as they go down the hallway and down the stairs. In the subway there was crates, a train, and another soldier.

"I'll handle him." Yoshiro said.

"Be careful." Lana said. Amy looks at Yoshiro also worried.

He nodded and sneaks around.

The soldier had his back to them as Yoshiro sneaks close enough to put him into a chokehold.

"Take this!"

The solider tries to fight back but it was too late as Yoshiro knocks him out.

Yoshiro then stuffs him inside a crate.

"Its weird." Dusk said. "Three soldiers so far. There should have been more."

"They must be fighting the zombies, as they can't be controled." Yoshiro reminded him.

"Yeah but we didn't see more than three in here. And for some reason they weren't together and were in different places." Dusk said. "Aren't they supposed to stick together and only split up when needed?"

"Unless they're numbers got cut down. Remember they can't keep sending more soldiers here."

"True but if Amy is the target they could have send than three." Dusk said. "I don't know it feels off. Maybe there was more but they got killed off or maybe they're setting up a ambush. I really hope its not my paranoid acting up."

"Let's just hope nothing happens."

"I fricking hate that we can't do anything to bring back the people who lost their lives to this." Dusk mutters.

"Death always happens my friends. We must stay strong and defeat the enemy to give them closure."

"Yeah." Dusk said with a sad look. "Still its not right. I'm hate being powerless like this."

"Your not. Neither of us knew this would happen. We can't blame ourselves your stronger than this Dusk." Yoshiro lightly scolded him.

"No I'm not." Dusk mutters. "Whatever let's just go."

Yoshiro punches him in the head.

"Don't you dare say that! Don't you see everything you did?! You saved many before. You helped save a world from extinction by machines. You also helped save many lives with us in other places. You shouldn't look down on yourself when you literally met your mom again! Imagine if she sees you like this how would she feel?!"

"That world? I didn't save it! All of the people, animals, and all of the insects were killed. Even the plant life was gone by the time I got there! 1 0f the Stitchpunks's soul was already taken too! We're still working on putting it back!" Dusk said. "It was already too late for that world by the time I got there."

"You still Gave hope, didn't you make the rain like you told me. Leonidas said you restarted the evolution cycle again. You gave it a new life."

"I... I don't know if that was because of me." Dusk said.

"It is, because you helped make it happen. Don't you see if you weren't there Simulacra would have won you did more good than you even know." Yoshiro smiles.

"Maybe." Dusk said. Yoshiro then remembers something.

"Dusk are you blaming yourself for those children in that place Kaibu-fu you mentioned before?" Yoshiro asks. Dusk sighs.

"I... I don't know." Dusk said. "I know it was Hugh, Elmeida, and those Zymot soldiers' who attacked them to get Pronimo's other half but the fact I wasn't able to do much at the time or even find a bring them back I can't not blame myself for that."

Yoshiro now understands. Dusk was someone who cherished life and blames himself for not being to do more to save the lives of those innocent unborn children or the people who were killed because of Hugh's forces as well as his mother's death. While talking to her spirits helps a bit Yoshiro now understands that Dusk needs help. Both emotionally and mentally.

"Dusk, we can only do so much, do you think the others of our friends gave up. Remember Victor he had to run away when he was a kid when his home was attacked but caused his mom death, do you think he gave up or when Shiro lost his mother. They kept on going and got stronger."

Yoshiro then hugs Dusk.

"And you are not alone."

Dusk smiles a bit.

Kir flies to Dusk's shoulder and hugs him too. Kir might be a huge pervert and ladies man but Dusk is his partner his brother. He would always look out for him.

"Now let's go. Amy is waiting for you Dusk too." Yoshiro said.

"Yeah." Dusk said.

The two went forward and Amy came hugging Dusk since she got worried about where he went.

They get on the train.

"How many stations?" Dusk asks.

"2." Lana said.

"No time for a nap then." Dusk said before whispering to Yoshiro. "I got food and drinks in the gates. Should I get them out?"

"Your hungry now, its been like a hour." He said

"I'm not that hungry but its more so for those three." Dusk said referring to Amy, Lana, and Marcello.

"Check around first there might be some supplies." He whispered.

"Got it." Dusk said.

He goes to look around and saw peanuts.

He grabs them and looks for any water bottles. Hopefully untouched and unopened ones.

He finds a cabinet and they still had the seal.

"Thank god." Dusk said.

He then takes them with him. "I found snacks."

He hands them to Lana, Amy, and Marcello along with giving them each a water bottle.

"Thanks Dusk." Lana said.

He smiles and nodded.

The three eat the peanuts and drink their water.

"Also Lana how are you on ammo?" Dusk asks.

She checks. "Not bad."

"Well I found another box of ammo." Dusk hands it to her.

"Thank you."

"No problem." Dusk said.

He goes back to Yoshiro as they think what to do next.

"Do you think Team Dark is also behind this?" Dusk decides to ask. "I know there is a chance they're not but we don't know for sure."

"I don't think so."

"Good. I rather not deal with them right now." Dusk said.

"They would do worse than this. I've seen the files." Yoshiro said.

Dusk grimaces as he nods.

They waited until they arrived at they're next destination.

Suddenly the train stops.

"Its too soon!" Lana said as they weren't there yet.

Yoshiro goes to check.

Just then Lana calls Ellen.

"Ellen can you hear me? Ellen?" Lana asks.

"Lana! Are you at St. John's Station?" Ellen asks.

"I don't think so. The Train just stopped." Lana said.

"Can you tell me where you are? Give me a clue or something and I'll give you directions. You can't be far from St. John's." Ellen said.

"Okay. I'll keep you posted as soon as we figured it out." Lana said.

Yoshiro keeps a look out for anything.

Yoshiro then finds a map.

"Looks like we're at Golden Cross Station." Yoshiro said loud enough for Lana to hear.

"Ellen we're at Golden Cross Station." Lana repeats over to Ellen.

"Damn. Its two blocks from the hospital. Okay there is two exits. Take "West", the streets there should be safer." Ellen said.

"I sure hope so." Lana said.

"Let's go." Yoshiro goes forward.

Lana takes Amy's hand and they follow him.

Dusk follows right behind them with Marcello.

The way they have to go have a crumbled walkway again and there is electricity sparking out from the other side of the walkway. Dusk throws ice shards to make a safe path and stop the electricity.

"Good thinking." Yoshiro said.

"What was that?" Marcello questions.

"Its a long story." Dusk said. "And now is not the time for it."

"Let's hurry my friends." Yoshiro said.

They go past the ice bridge and up some stairs and down another set. They then see mines.

"Again." Dusk sighs.

they move back as Dusk denotes them with Shockwave.

"Keep going."

There was a zombie who was headshot by Lana.

"Nice shot." Yoshiro said.

"Thanks." Lana said surprised she made that shot.

He gave a thumbs up and kept going.

They go through a tent and pick up another couple of syringes. Dusk didn't even want to touch them.

"Maybe we need to stop collecting them. We have about 20 or so." Dusk said.

"Your just scared." Yoshiro said.

"No I was thinking we should probably leave some for any other survivors we missed along the way. Then again there might not be any." Dusk said.

"Oh yeah? Stick out your arm." Yoshiro takes out a needle.

That made Dusk run. Amy looks at Yoshiro with a frown.

"What? I was teasing him since he likes to make excuses about not being scared." Yoshiro shrugs.

"Maybe stop for now. We're almost there." Lana said.

"If you want." He said.

They continue down the way and see a dead solider with a gas mask and the back of the train.

"What happened here?" Yoshiro said.

"Something must have killed him. Could it have been another of those enhanced zombies we saw before?" Dusk suggests.

Yoshiro checks his body for anything.

He doesn't see any bites so Dusk might be right or it could have been something else like a medical condition.

They heard a roar in the distance.

Amy gets scared by this.

"What was that?" Dusk said.

"I don't know but it doesn't sound good. We need to get out of here." Lana said. Yoshiro nods before looting the gas mask and any ammo the solider might have.

They then ran faster to make sure they didn't get caught.

They find a pass card a bit from the body and Lana picks it up. They open a gate and move up some stairs and enter a room. They go through it and into another room with another Syringe that Lana picks up. They keep going, going through more doors, killing a zombie, grabbing a pipe, Dusk uses a knife to take down a wire that would electrocute people if they hit it, down more stairs, and finds another body with gas mask near a sign saying Welcome to Silver city.

"We're close." Yoshiro said.

"Maybe." Dusk said as they take the mask and anything else that might be useful from the solider.

"I feel a bit guilty by doing this." Lana admits.

"Well he is working with Phoenix to kidnap Amy and Phoenix is most likely behind this zombie attack think of this as small compensation plus we did save one soldier earlier." Dusk said.

"Don't feel bad Lana, we can get through this." Yoshiro said.

Lana nods as they move on. They break some glass in their way while grabbing another pipe. They arrived at the other side of the train and another zombie comes out of it.

Dusk throws a knife hitting it's temple.

It falls down dead as Dusk takes his knife back. They went back through the busted glass where Lana finds a Syringe they missed on a chair and another by the masked soldier they had just looted.

"These guys keep failing like flies." Dusk said.

They traceback their steps and using masks goes through a infected area and Amy uses Shockwave to break down a wall accidentally opening a way a way if someone had used the collapsed walkway. Lana picks up another pipe and they try to open a door.

"It's blocked from behind." Yoshiro frowns.

"Found a crawl hole." Dusk said going through it.

"Okay try it." Yoshiro said.

Dusk goes through it. He kept crawling to the other side. But then several zombies come running at the group on both sides!

Yoshiro fights many of them back as he slashes them with his sword. Lana shoots some as Marcello swings the sword Dusk gave him.

"Keep going!" Yoshiro said.

They kept fighting until no more zombies came.

Yoshiro relaxes a bit.

The door open making them sigh in relief.

Dusk came back. "What did I miss?"

"Zombies." Lana said.

"Oh, well let's go."

Lana calls Ellen.

"Ellen Raymond had soldiers here. They're dead though." Lana said worriedly.

"Okay, Lana. Calm down. You can make it." Ellen said. "We're on the second floor in the radiology wing."

"You can't send us a ambulance or something?" Lana questions.

"We can't. Everyone's got their hands full here. Those of us who still have hands, anyway." Ellen said. "And I haven't heard from the last group we sent out. Lana you can do this."

Just then a male voice appears on the radio.

"Lana, stop. You're making a terrible mistake. You don't have all the information." He said.

"Professor leave us alone! I won't let you hurt her anymore!" Lana said making Dusk and Yoshiro realized this is the guy behind phoenix.

"I would never hurt Amy. She is the future of Humanity." The Professor said. "We need to meet. Let me explain."

"I've already seen your explanation. It's been trying to kill me ever since I left the center." Lana retorts. "What have you done?! Are you insane?! You destroyed a city because of Amy!"

"These events... surpass my understanding... But they seem to be evitable."

"Evitable?!" Dusk said angrily. "Don't you dare lie you bastard! Any of these lives that were destroyed that was because of you wasn't it?! I won't forgive you and they won't either! I'll send you straight to hell myself!"

Yoshiro grabs him. "Calm down Dusk. We need answers first, imagine what he knows can stop this madness."

"Ah the male child who is able to use the power that Amy has." The Professor said.

"How did you know about him?" Yoshiro said.

"Cameras." The Professor said.

"Crap we forgot about the security cameras." Dusk scowls.

"Well talk fast and you better not touch them." Yoshiro warned them.

"I have always known this day would come. I am not the cause. But Amy is the effect. She is my greatest Accomplishment." The Professor said.

"Y-you monster. This was a test... no a experiment to make Amy stronger?!" Dusk shouts.

"I will never let you touch Amy again." Lana said.

"Lana! Lana! You're giving me no choice! Don't make me do this!" The Professor exclaims as they get outside.

"If you hurt her your going down." Yoshiro said.

"Yoshiro should I bring them out to create a distraction and take out some of the zombies?" Dusk asks referring to his spirits. "Heck we can have a couple get us to the hospital sooner in two minutes tops."

"Theres no need. I have a more subtle one."

Whelp jumps forward making noise to distract them.

Kir goes to help Whelp.

"You see."

"So we're staying on the streets then?" Dusk asks. Yoshiro nods. "Fine."

"It's best to keep a surprise for the enemy as theres still the unknown monster left." Yoshiro told him. "It's what Eric would say."

"Right." Dusk said.

They continued forward

Yoshiro moves a trash bin out of the way allowing them to move. He looks around in case the monster comes. Luckily Whelp and Kir's distraction caused the zombies to investigate the noise

They managed to reach the other side without any trouble. Kir comes back to them with Whelp.

"Something is weird with those zombies." Kir said surprising the others that he could talk. "They have glowing symbols on their foreheads."

"Glowing symbols?" Dusk questions.

Yoshiro smacks Kir.

"Sorry but those symbols were giving me a bad feeling." Kir said.

"We gotta hurry." Yoshiro said.

Yoshiro moves another trash bin as Dusk quickly kills the zombies using his knives

He then grabs Amy hands and moves forward.

They found another soldier and takes whatever ammo he has and saw another pair of zombies which Yoshiro and Lana took care of.

"They're not as much "

They get to where the hospital but the way is blocked.

"I would love to come in Ellen but we can't get thought to the front doors. The passage is blocked." Lana said calling Ellen.

"Okay... There's a access through the basement. But I'm not sure if its clear. Dr. Jones took a group out that way and I haven't heard from him." Ellen said.

"That's good enough for me. I'll find it. Let's go in." Lana said as they took a left into an alley. Lana then sees a zombie and shoots it in the head. They then found a pipe and a pass on the ground.

"Why can't we bust in?" Dusk Said.

"Imagine if theres a horde of them inside that entrance? How would we react in time?" Yoshiro stares at him.

"Not in time to prevent us from getting hurt badly." Dusk said.

"Exactly, better be safe than sorry." Yoshiro said.

they then look for the door before finding it and opening it so they can get inside.

"What's inside?" Dusk peeks.

"A hallway. This might be where we get into the hospital ." Yoshiro said

"Well let's go." Dusk said.

They get into the hallway and took a right opening another door going into another hallway. They go forward a bit and open another door being a small storage room with nothing important inside it but a locker for two to hide in. They move on going forward once more where Amy knocked down some board blocking the route they need to go. They then hear footsteps behind them.

Yoshiro and Dusk got ready to attack. Amy and Lana hid in the locker as a soldier was in sight gun about to be raised.

Dusk threw a knife stabbing him. The man screams in pain from this as he tries to fire at them. But Yoshiro smashes him down knocking the guy out.

"I should probably heal him so he doesn't bleed out." Dusk said.

"It would help." Yoshiro said.

Dusk starts to work on healing him.

"Please remind me to read some medical textbooks when I can." Dusk said to both Kir and Yoshiro. "I need to stop relying on Healing Shards every time."

"Ask Leo he knows about that."

"Right. I think I have some things he might like to study from my adventures with Kir before we joined the team so I might as well and hand them to him." Dusk muses.

"Anyway, we need to keep going before our Batman starts to question why we took so long." Yoshiro said.

"Yeah." Dusk said finishing up the healing. He then takes out some rope. "Tie him up and throw him in the locker?"

Yoshiro does that.

They then head down the hallway going over the broken boards.

"Well let's check." Yoshiro said.

Inside was a lift and a ladder.

"Well going up again."

"Down you mean." Dusk said. "it goes to the bottom like the ladder."

"You know what I mean."

Dusk looks over the lift.

"No button on here. Seriously who freaking designed these things?" Dusk questions.

"Must be for tests of sorts. You know they send some guy up and hope for the best." Yoshiro said.

"For a hospital?" Dusk questions.

"You do know how many shady places exist?" He added.

"Right." Dusk said. "So do we all go down the ladder or one of us goes down it and the others take the lift?"

"You stay with Amy and i'll go down." Yoshiro said.

"Got it." Dusk said.

Yoshiro climbs down the latter as they waited.

He looks and fins the button right by the lift.

"Found it!"

"Where was it?" Lana asks as they get on the lift.

"Right by it as I got down the ladder." Yoshiro said as he pushes the button causing it to go down.

They reached the bottom and got off.

They then go down the hallway and see two paths. A door and a collapsed walkway. They go through the door and go down some stairs with Dusk using flashlights to light the way.

Dusk looks around.

"Looks like we're in the sewers." Dusk said as they found a crowbar.

"Hey crowbar." Yoshiro said.

"Yeah this will help." Marcello said taking it.

"Now where to?"

"Maybe that way?" Dusk points behind them.

They went to that direction.

They keep moving before finding a dead body who looks to be zombified and a wooden bridge leading to the other side.

"Weird." Dusk said.

"What?" Yoshiro looks at him.

"It looks zombified yet the body isn't gone. The other zombies are dissolved yet this one is not." Dusk said.

"Maybe it died before turning, as some prefer death over becoming one of them." Yoshiro said.

"Right. You think he was a part of that group Ms. Ellen mentioned?" Dusk asks.

He didn't know.

"We can look for a id and ask Ellen." Lana said.

Yoshiro checks just in case if it jumps at them.

He looks for a id and finds one.

"Just another person in the wrong place at the wrong time." Yoshiro said.

Dusk frowns but they move on.

They have to get out of this place. After finding no way forward they head back to where they started and found another bridge. They go on it and onto the other side and found a leg.

"Ugh." Dusk said.

"Another person it looks like. Not sure if they're alive or dead." Yoshiro said. "I don't see any bones from the rest of the body unless they got turned into a zombie right after."

"Or... They got they're legs chopped and it flew."

"Either way We need to get out of here." Kir said. They move on and found a pass way leading them into a large room with two blocked ways with one being busted enough for a kid to crawl through.

"Well Dusk it's your turn since Amy safety is important." Yoshiro said.

"I know." Dusk said crawling through it.

Yoshiro watches and they waited

Yoshiro then sees a button next to the other locked pathway and presses it causing it to go up. he then goes through it and sees a button for the gate on the other side of the body they found. The others follow him out there as Dusk found a gated passageway and presses a button there to open it.

"Done."

they get in and see another room like the last one and see a door they head to it but it was a dna scanner.

"How do we get DNA?" Yoshiro said.

"That body we passed by? or that leg?" Lana suggests.

"What's the most fresh?" Dusk said.

"I don't think it matters since they're the only two near here." Marcello said as Lana scans the cracker into it.

"Seems like there is three choices." Lana said looking at the cracker's mini map.

"Well we need to pick the right one." Yoshiro said.

"Well three choices leaves room for error." Dusk said. "Luckily the leg and that body is nearby so we can check them first."

"Right." Lana said.

"In that case Dusk, Amy, Kir, and Marcello stay here while me and Lana go look." Yoshiro said.

The duo went off to find it.

But then zombies start coming out of the small crawly holes of the walls!

Yoshiro starts to Slash and shoot at them

Lana also shoots at them.

Yoshiro takes her forward while they fought.

They fight their way to the body and scans it. They then head back to the others as it was the right match.

They tried it and it was a clear.

"Is it just me or is anyone else getting a bad feeling?" Dusk asks as the door opens and gets into a hallway and start moving. Yoshiro was about to say something but Ellen's voice comes out in hysterics.

"... We're on the second floor!... But there are creatures everywhere! Oh my God! Benson! Benson!" She yells in a panic and horror.

"Ellen! What's going on?!" Lana asks in worried.

"Benson just killed a creature with a defibrillator!" Ellen said. But then more zombies came making Amy scared. Dusk picks up Amy as they run to the elevator as the adults fight off the zombies. They get in at the nick of time.

"That was too close." Dusk said.

"Yeah." Kir said as Dusk puts Amy down and the elevator heads to the second floor. "If it was that bad here then we're going need to be careful."

Dusk brings out lightning shards.

"These Lightning shards should help. That Benson guy used a defibrillator to kill one and I believe I can direct the lightning to it the zombies in our way." Dusk said.

"Be careful." Yoshiro said.

"Don't worry I practice this attack before. Several times actually. Useful for knocking out guards though I had to be careful on the voltage since some of them were wearing suits of armor." Dusk said.

Dusk moves forward as Amy watches him.

Dusk after far enough starts to whistle causing a mutated zombie to hear and come rushing at him. Dusk throws lightning shards at it frying it with lightning.

"There."

But they heard the roar from last time.

The others runs to Dusk as Dusk slashes the mutated zombie's head off with his Shardsword.

"Okay-"

"Dusk we gotta go fast!" Yoshiro said.

"Yeah I heard that roar too." Dusk said. "Which way to the Radiology wing?"

Lana checks.

"This way." Lana leads them there.

They went to that direction.

Luckily it was just the one zombie but Dusk found another syringe which means that Phoenix was here making them worried. They find Ellen making Lana smile in relief. They then hear a chopper and see it outside with a man in priest clothes and holding a rifle with a scope as he calls them on the phone.

"Hello Ladies." He said as two soldiers come rapping down a line from the chopper. "It looks like you can use some divine Intervention."

"Who are you?" Dusk said.

"I am the priest who came to save you lost lambs." He said with slight humor.

Dusk didn't trust him as something is wrong.

But right now he doesn't have any proof except where did he get the chopper? Wait a minute the chopper.

He looks, he tries to find anything like the symbol of phoenix but he knows it might not work since the priest could have stolen it or found it

"But how did you know we were here?" Yoshiro said.

"Did you call for help?" Dusk asks Ellen's group.

Yoshiro wonders the same

"Yeah to the police if there was any left." Benson said. "But that was a while ago."

They heard a roar as the priest got Pierced by a tendril.

The others gasp in horror as Dusk and Yoshiro ready themselves. The priest got dragged and screams were heard, then a Tyrant C came down and got ready.

"Time to bring out the big guns." Dusk said.

Tyrant C then appeared in front of Dusk surprising him punching him back.

Dusk went through a wall causing him to let out a sound of pain.

"Dusk!" Yoshiro charges at it with his sword.

The Tyrant knocks Yoshiro away but it was hit by some flame shards.

Dusk grunts holding his chest.

"That hurt." He grunts.

The tyrant walks towards him.

Dusk opens the Gates of Babylon and shoots out Enkidu at it.

It grunted, as Amy hugs Dusk like she was trying to protect him.

"Don't worry." Dusk said to Amy as Kir flies to him and attaches to his arm. Dusk points Kir at the Tyrant. "Give me a Kir Royale!"

He fires blasts of green energy at the Tyrant.

The tyrant grunted before it roars ripping it's shirt off with claws coming out. Dusk grits his teeth as he tries to figure out how to kill it.

Yoshiro gets his sword ready. "We gotta find a way."

They heard a sound as a new chopper came down with a special RPG being sent down.

"I'll distract it." Dusk said as he throws ice shards at the Tyrant. "You get the weapon."

Yoshiro goes but the tyrant knocks him back, Lana sees it and rushes to the rpg.

The Tyrant tries to stop her but Dusk uses Enkidu to hold it back.

Lana gets it before aiming and shooting, it hits the tyrant causing it to explode. Everyone sighs in relief.

They saw the new chopper come down and it has Eric.

"Hey Eric." Dusk said before wincing as he had bruised his ribs.

"It seems I came just in time."

"Yeah. Got enough room on that thing?" Yoshiro asks.

"Yes, everyone get in."

They all get in, Dusk after sitting down starts to use a healing shard on his ribs. Amy holds him out of fear.

Eric and Yoshiro seeing this chuckles a bit

"It seems you found love Dusk." Eric said.

Dusk looks at him.

"You do realized she is probably clinging to me since we just dealt with zombies right?" Dusk questions.

"She's been close to you all the time." Yoshiro said.

"Looks like Dusk is building his harem. I am so proud." Kir pretends to wipe a tear from his eye.

Dusk frowns.

"I am too young for that." Dusk said.

Yoshiro puts a arm around Lana. "Well love always happens."

Lana blushes at this.

"Y-yeah." She said. Ellen smiles a bit at this.

Eric takes them to a safe zone to get some rest. Meanwhile the tyrant rises up as it roars before going away.

Note: This entire chapter was based on the video game Amy, Yoshiro and Dusk are the main heroes here and this was one of my biggest projects and Gundam helped me out making it.

Team Light Encyclopedia

Gin was at the classroom "Today we're talking about Amy."

He shows the little girl. "Little Amy has special abilities that involves the symbols she gets. She has a immunity to become a zombie which makes the other group desire to have her."

"In fact many would try to get her."

He then noticed her staring at the screen.

"Yes it's you Amy."

She nodded.

"Nice kid, just a little too silent." Gin said.
