Project: KOKKUA

After a 20 year bio-war in the upbeat technology savvy town of Kokkua, many begin to fall ill to an odd disease from the black smoke caused by the bombing. What they do not realize is that this smoke causes certain death and zombication.

Introduction

Year 21XX

Welcome to Kokkua City; a Neo-Tokyo futuristic place where the technology is just as intelligent as the humans. Here humans lived at peace for man years; that is until the election of Kokkua's latest president; Royga Ten. Royga was known for making enemies among the other nations and even threatened to bring the world into a nuclear and biological warfare. 20 years of fighting finally killed the beautiful land of Kokkua and turned it into a barely living wasteland city. It's amazing if anyone could or would survive. Well, those who do can't do it alone.






Image

That's where The Walkers come in. The Walkers are a secretive group of people who had survived. Unfortunately, they are few. Around 6 young adults who just so happened to hidden when the Heavy Smoke cloud appeared. They do what they can to survive; steal arsenals from the city, use weapons on the undead, raid old buildings and homes and even take in any survivors they find. Story goes the group started as a small gang of kids in school but as the years went by, their leader decided to protect whoever they could. They developed an underground passage way where the survivors could live. But, someone had to go out into the danger and obtain any supplies and forms of communication they could. That's where The Walkers come in. As the survivors of the city stay safely underground, The Walkers fight on the land and obtain anything they can.

The city is beyond dead, but with the help of The Walkers, this city can survive a little longer. They have hope that a cure will be made. They have hope the sins of this once beautiful city will be cleansed. No matter how many bullets it takes, they will provide a better tomorrow.

Morning as usual; or so he believed. I was extremely rare to see the morning sun beyond the greenish grey smoke clouds in the sky. Blade sat up from his sofa mound of scattered blanket sheets and pillows. He looked over to his sister who he insisted to sleep in the bed. She looked so peaceful. It was nice to know that at least in her dreams she could live the happy life she wanted. After a long deep breath, he stood up and began to prepare himself for the day.

After washing up and getting dressed, he began to prepare a small breakfast. Everyone underground had food rationed every week and what they were given had to last them that week exactly. If they ran out, unfortunately, more couldn't be provided from The Walkers. However, the remaining survivors were quite friendly and were not against sharing among others. It's nice to know spirits could be so lifted and greed couldn't consume their lives. Blade always secretly gave his sister a large portion of his food. He would prefer if she ate properly and if he had to skip a meal or two, it's for the best. After placing the place of breakfast on the table for her, he grabbed a small snack and took his bag of supplies.

Today would be as usual. The team would gather near the entrance of the underground civilization, discuss their tasks and depart until the signal to return would be given in a few hours. Depending on what group was doing what, the task was often split between three squadrons. Most of the time the task of riding the undead was given to the strongest team, followed by the job of scavenging any supplies and food to the most observant and the search for survivors to the team that was lacking the previous day.

He placed the cigarette into his mouth letting out a small sigh. Since he couldn't just go out and buy them, he often made one last an entire day. It took a lot of control to do that but he would surly keep an eye out for any smokes along the way. Blade approached the iron gates. The groans could be heard above and each time he heard that, it gave him chills. He placed down his bag looking over everything. Inside everyone's pack was a gas mask if a cloud were to pass by, water, small snacks, flare guns for the signal to leave, communicator, matches, compass, map of the city and small containers if they were to find fresh water that wasn't bottled.

He lit his cigarette and sat down on a large stone as he waited for the team to assemble.

❝I'm so ready to burn some zombies up, so let's go and fight already!❞


ɗιαƖσgυє cσƖσя:#d62e28







Sera was annoyed. But, honestly, did you expect anything other than annoyance when she woke up and realized that there were no hard candies left in the storage for her to suck on? Idiots, she was the one that went out and killed things, and yet others stole her loot? How frustrating, how annoying! Everyone knew about her chronic dry mouth, xerostomia or whatever they called it, one of the side effects of her Combustion Module implanted into the palm of her hand. More than just some tech thing, it was heavily integrated to her nerves, feeling like and acting like a fifth limb, fully under her control. Except, well, when emotions ran high. And a Sera without her candy was very angry indeed - a spark of flame, a click, and then a stream blew out. Sera let out a startled yelp, quickly shutting the fire off with her mental command, sighing. She'd need an extra bottle of water for today's mission, then, wouldn't she?

Honestly, it was such a hassle. She worked best with candy and sugar - how was she supposed to keep precious Kasumi-chan safe without it? Though truth be told, she was usually working alongside the leader, Blade, more often than not - Kasumi-chan was instead with that robotics guy, Anders, right? As the second in command, Sera was often awake earlier than most, and that did nothing to stop her bad mood from growing worse.

"Alright, who was it?" Sera growled menacingly, loudly. She wouldn't just let some stupid kids get away with stealing her candy, that was ridiculous! Why didn't they go and fight, then, huh? And then Sera heard it, that little snicker in the corner, that scampering of feet. Honestly, did anyone really think they were just gonna get away that easily? Sera bolted to her feet in the direction of the laugh and found a little girl with a devilish smile on her face, wearing raggy clothes but still shone with the impish innocence children seemed to have. "Ah, c'mon, I totally thought I got away this time!"

This was Yuka, one of the girls Sera personally saved on a previous mission, bringing her back to base. She was an orphan, like many people were, and seemed to develop a liking to the fire girl. In truth, Sera was fond of Yuka too, and would be happy to keep the little snot safe. Except on days like this, of course. "Yukaaaaaa." Sera hissed menacingly, lifting the child up by her collar. "Don't. Ever. Take. My. Candies. Got it?" Yuka nodded, giggling, knowing there was no real danger. Sera sighed, putting her back down, knowing she'd definitely do it again just for kicks. It happened so often Sera couldn't keep count anymore.

Anyways, there were more important things to worry about, as Yuka scampered off to play with the other children. The team was supposed to assemble for another mission, and the fire girl was very excited to re-enter the fray. More than candy, and almost as much as Kasumi-chan, Sera loved fighting. It was her one real skill, and her favorite pasttime. Hell if she'd ever miss an opportunity to go hunt for zombies. So she made her way to the gates, spotting the leader, Blade, hanging out, already with a cigar. Sera waved to him with a little grin, still annoyed at how much taller he was than her.

"Yo." Sera said cheerfully, shoving her hands in her pockets, bag full of the necessities slung over her shoulder. "That brat, Yuka, stole the last candy again, so we're gonna need to get more. Hope that's not a problem, Hendrix."

Youta slides one eye open, the world seems blurry, dark, muddled. This is how it always is, the life underground isn't Youta's favorite, still the young man has made the most of it. For instance, Youta has entertained some of the children by escorting them around the man made cave system in 'adventures', the kids love it and Youta enjoys helping get the children's mind off of danger. Youta has also helped to relocate many of the families into the underground, Youta may not be the strongest walker but he knows how to work with people.
Youta slides out of his sleeping bag, stretching his weary muscles, a hard dirt floor can be a pain sometimes. Now the blonde moves on to his grooming and morning rituals. He grabs a piece of bread from the meager supplies he has for food, taking a bite from the near stale loaf. After a few nibbles he's defeated opting to take a granola bar for the road. After breakfast Youta exits his small tent in the underground complex that houses the survivors. As he heads to the meeting point he finds that many others meet his attention with smiles or jokes of their own.
After making his way upwards he finds himself with Blade near the gate, the leader of the walkers looking through his belongings. "Hey big guy. Morning to you, I suppose we have to wait here until the rest show. What a lazy morning in the neighborhood."

Every morning starts with a ritual. Animals awaken by dawn to find water and food. People used to wake, shower, wash, and eat before they departed for whatever career or occupation allowed them to keep their ritual.

Even in abandoned, desolate, Kokkua. Everyone still has their rituals. One of the few ties to their previous lives, perhaps. The quiet alarms (for loud noises were dangerous in this new world), the meager meal (for food was often scarce in this new world), and the morning commute (at least that never changed).

Like a skipping record, Anders found himself once again walking towards the familiar gates a little late, as usual. Over one shoulder, a large backpack, mostly empty, and carrying all of the usual save for three new additions; a trio of metallic discs hung upon the back, tightly secured so they don't clang about with every step. And in his hand was the familiar weight of his rifle - if the large, obscenely unwieldy weapon could even be called such, boasting the strength to tear through nearly any obstacle.

Already there were three of the loudest members of their little ensemble. Blade, Youta, and Sera. He gave a nod to the first two, and he addressed the latter, "Sera, Sera, Sera. I heard the most horrific thing walking down the hall." He said, taking a falsely exasperated seat. "I think - correct me if I'm wrong - I caught glimpse of some terrible, fiery demon terrorizing a poor little girl - Yuka, right? Who do you think could have done such a thing?" His words ended with a lilting, teasing note, as he jammed a thick cable into the bottom of his rifle, causing an electric cackle somewhere within his pack.

"You need to move faster." A voice ordered. Kasumi jumped over a wooden spear as it jabbed at her legs and she countered with a jab of her own.
"Faster." The spear came again from the side this time and she ducked, the perfect angle for a low jab.
"Again." She felt the air stirring above her and rolled to her right just as the echoes of the spear hitting the floor bounced off the empty walls. The swishing wind told her the attacks weren't over yet and she got to her feet, giving her just enough time to jump once again as the spear jabbed at her legs.
"Good." A warm hand patted her on the head and she looked up with a smile.
"I got better, right?" She grinned.
"You need to move faster." The voice became distorted and she glanced up to see a face whose skin had begun rotting away.


Kasumi shot up and glanced around at her sleeping friends.
"Damn... I fell asleep..." She mumbled, glancing through small cracks in the ceiling to see the sky. Judging from the position of the clouds and sun since the last time she looked, she had only been asleep for about 20 minutes. She stood up and rubbed her eyes as she began walking towards her small pile of belongings. It wasn't much, just her modified spear, a single change of clothes that she kept clean at all times, a bag that all walkers were given, and a sniper rifle which wasn't much use without a silencer- which she had yet to get her hands on.

She picked up her bag and spear with a small sigh, habitually walking towards the same place she went every morning - the iron gates. Even if there wasn't a mission, she still liked to examine what was happening in the outside world, or at least what she could see of it. She stared at the ground while she walked, thinking over her dream. It was usual for her to have nightmares during the few times a night she slept, and every time she woke up feeling the same. Groggy and absent minded. She always assumed the nightmares were a sort of panic effect from her body thinking she might be dead instead of realizing that it was asleep, but she could only guess. She shoved her hand into her pocket and heard a small crinkling sound, knowing immediately what it was - a small hard candy, something she had picked up and saved for Serafina. She smiled a bit thinking of her closest friend. Serafina would always scold her for acting so sullen in the early morning and Kasumi quickly knocked herself out of her morning daze as she began walking faster to the gates.
"Look at that... for once I'm the one that's late." She mumbled to herself as she spotted four other members there, including Sera. Kasumi tossed the small piece of candy to Sera as she stood beside her.
"Goodmorning, guys." She nodded to Youta, Blade, and Anders.

The morning started dark, before slowly the light filtered in from presumably the sun, and it was nice, to see the sun rise through the smoke that poisoned the city into the way that it is now. Just reality one may guess. Of course, Rei was already awake, having been on watch half-way through the night before, Rei had already been at the meeting point, though up a little higher, ensuring that she could both see the area, and remain hidden from those pesky bandits. Though as she sat, yawning slightly, she noticed Blade, with his normal supplies for the others whom would roam the world above, where humanity both died, and walk again, remaining quiet she watched, as the normal routine had taken place, packs thrown down, cigarette lit, and bum on a large rock, just like any morning for Blade. As the stillness choked the air, a little fire-starter had shown up, Sera, or as Rei called her; "Hellion", whom had been annoyed already, spouting something about hard candy, knowing Sera liked them, Rei tended to get hard candies for her, anything that'd make the girl settle down for a bit. The next one to enter, was Rei's teammate most often, Youta, or, as Rei calls him, "You", whom just came up grinning, talking about a lazy morning of some sort, Rei, being as observant as she is, honestly couldn't care about what he said after that.

While she almost secretly prepared to move out, Rei noticed another of her allies, Anders, someone whom she admittedly looked up to for his skills, and especially his weapon, she thought that his weapon was interesting, and flat out awesome when in combat, since as far as she knew, it often didn't need silencers like hers do. Though finally wrapping up the party was, surprisingly Kasumi, whom had acknowledged her lateness. And at this point, Rei nodded to herself, dropping gracefully from her perch and looking at the others, even speaking a little, to especially Blade, whom she deemed would care about a little report, "Outside of Hellion over there, quiet night, no disturbances" she said before taking her pack, and taking a breath, no good morning or any other greeting that could be heard, but Rei stood, watching her allies ready to handle anything that she may come across during the scavenge.

Youta kicks a rock impatiently, the stone doesn't budge, and neither will us survivors Youta thinks. If anyone believes in the power of the humans and the walkers it' s Youta, he has hope and faith that something good is right around the corner. It might be a false hope but Youta doesn't think that's an option. The Blonde decides to check on his own supplies and takes out the piece of bread to finish noshing on it.
Youta turns from blade as the others join, Kasumi, Anders, Sera, and Rei. Youta flashes a toothy grin towards his silent partner. "Hey Rei, good morning to you. Are you ready with those guns of yours? I think we'll see some action today, I mean if Blade gives us the chance." Youta shields his words from the strong leader though speaks loud enough so everyone can hear purposely. Youta is definently the least combative or strong member but he definently has his perks and personality. The blonde bounces around as the others get everything in order, Youta may seem like he doesn't take anything seriously but he does, it's his antics get in the way. He already has everything in order including his saber, a gas mask, and some utility items that should help should their passage be blocked and they need to camp out. He sets his rather heavy pack near the seat of the gate. Walking over to Blade with another toothy grin displayed, he gives a mock salute. "So what can we do today sir?" Youta and Rei are new but they are very capable, Rei can kill Youta can talk like they make up for eachothers weaknesses. In waiting for a response the blonde shoots a look at Kasumi, a soft and brief look but a rather obvious one. Youta breaks the gaze before Kasumi catches on, returning to look at Blade with an eager puppy face.

As the group began too gather, he smiled lightly. Sure they weren't the most punctual but they were like a second family to him. He took a final huff before rubbing the bub of the cigarette against the rock. He let out a soft yawn before placing it into his pocket. As he listened to Rei, he couldn't help but feel confused. She didn't really have to do this but she insisted and he couldn't tell if this was some sort of tactic to get on his good side and get some sort of promotion. He wouldn't worked. "Why thank you Rei." He said in his usual swave voice. Most women got that.

He hopped off his rock and grabbed a hold of his bag and sword before smiling at Youta's question. "Well as you all know we divide the daily duties depending how the teams did previously. Now it seemed pretty even really so not a lot of flaws. Which I like to see. So for today, I'll assign differently. Squad 3, I'd like for you to be on Kill duty today in down town. Subordinates say they have been a massive increase in the sworms there and this seems like the perfect test for our newbies. Of course, that just means you have to be all the more careful."

He wasn't against trying new things or assigning tough jobs to new people.

"Squad 2, today we have a special mission for you. We have been getting strange signals from the business district. People believe it may be survivors trying to contact us but they might be trapped at the top. I'm sure those damn zombies had them cornered up there and they had to barricade them out. So, your on rescue duty." He smiled. "Coming from you two, I don't expect failure."

He then cleared his throat and looked to Sera. "As for you and me Sera, were heading back into the suburbs to try and find anything we can get our hands on. Medicine, water, food; whatever. But, as you may know, the clouds over there are pretty dense. So it will be hard to spot any of those damn zombies around there." He smiled and playfully poked her head. "But if we do spot them, I'll be sure to let you burn them to a crisp."

He gave a small nod before looking to everyone. "Alright everyone. I'll give the signal in 2 hours tops. Be sure to keep an eye out for the white flare. Remember, if your in danger, just call on the communicator and we'll come for ya. Got it people?" He then approached the gate and reached for the key around his neck opening the lock. "Alright let's get to work."

❝I'm so ready to burn some zombies up, so let's go and fight already!❞


ɗιαƖσgυє cσƖσя:#d62e28







Sera stared angrily at Youta, deciding to ignore the slime for the time being. She found him annoying,a pest - Kasumi was her best friend, no one else's! He didn't have the right to go and butt his head in like that. It only got worse when Anders came and taunted her about what she did to Yuka. What? Yuka deserved it for trying to steal her candy - for always trying to steal her candy. The pyromaniac glowered at the robo tech guy, regarding him with a sour expression. "Keep that up and I won't let you examine my Combustion Module later." Sera said with a scowl. She was interrupted from her bad mood when Kasumi-chan arrived and Sera spontaneously thanked her for the candy with a nice big mix between a hug and a tackle, running and wrapping her arms around her lavender-haired best friend.

"Suuuumi!" Sera giggled, enjoying Kasumi's warmth. Yeah, she'd never let anyone take her away, never ever! "Don't be late next time, it makes me worry, got it?" She tried to make a stern voice at the end, but it was hard to sound menacing when your voice was muffled by candy. Sera shrugged, figuring her message got across when Rei approached, giving her another candy. Sera grinned at the usually quiet girl, tossing her a friendly thumbs up. Hopefully Rei would talk to people more, Sera really wanted to see the woman get along with everyone and -

Oh no. Oh hell no. Kasumi might not have noticed, but Sera certainly saw Youta's over friendly glance aimed at the lavender-haired girl. She hugged Kasumi again, possessively, and shot Youta a dirty look. There was no way he was taking her best friend from her. The game was interrupted when Blade made his proclamation of the team set up - Sera was a little sad she wasn't on kill duty, but shrugged. Scavenging through the suburbs was fine too, that way she could ensure the candy stockpile went back to full.

"Gotcha, Hendrix." Sera said with an eager, excited grin. She was ready to go - and hell, if some zombies wanted to crash the party, she was more than willing to burn them up! "Oi, Anders! If Kasumi comes back with a scratch, I'll burn your electronics, okay? Keep her safe!"

With that, Sera pushed open the gates, heading in the direction of the suburbs. She tested her Combustion Module, enjoying the heat emitting from it. She waved her arm a little, making a tiny flame that danced as she moved, with a delighted little smile. She stuck her tongue out at Blade as she walked slightly ahead of the leader. "The elders say we're in need of more meat, and some of them are getting sick, so medicine's a priority. Just in case you wanted to know, boss."

"Okay, I wont be late again." Kasumi smiled at her friend.

Kasumi acknowledged Rei's appearance with a polite nod as the girl descended from somewhere along the ceiling. She often saw Rei here when she came by, but could never figure out exactly how she got up there, or where she went once she was up there. Kasumi couldn't help feeling a very slight twinge of jealousy every time she saw Rei, bitter at the fact that she could go somewhere Kasumi couldn't, but was careful not to let the feeling become anything more than a passing thought. Kasumi thought of everyone as her friend, after all. She turned her attention to Blade as he broke down the days work and told each team where they would be heading for their mission.

"A signal from the business district...?" She said mostly to herself. She had some vague memories of that district but never had a reason to venture any deeper than the outskirts, let alone memorize the city layout there. It was a blank slate to her, and an excited feeling tingled in her chest. She could finally go somewhere new, fill in one of the blanks in her mind about the city's layout. She turned her gaze to Anders, wondering if he knew the area.
"Do you think one of your machines could pick up the signal inside the district?" She asked, knowing how much he loved his machines, and how much she loved to watch his machines work. She blushed slightly as Sera threatened to burn his electronics if she came back with a scratch.

"Come on, Sera. Have I ever come back with so much as a wrinkle in my clothes?" She crossed her arms.
"But I appreciate you caring for me. We'll both come back without a scratch, right?" She grinned to her friend once more before hearing the beautiful sound of a lock clicking open. Kasumi looked to Anders expectantly before moving. Even though they were technically equals, she respected his decisions as an adult with two more years of experience than she had.
"I know the safest route there, but once were inside we cant rely on my sense of direction." She stated. She pulled her bag up, over her shoulders and glanced back inside the underground sanctuary, mentally checking things off to make sure she didn't forget anything.
"Oh, and one more thing." She held out a single finger to Anders as a thought popped into her mind.
"If we so much as even glimpse a silencer, I'm going for it. No way am I going to let you show me up as the better marksman on this squad." She declared with a small laugh.

"You don't really mean that, Sera. After all, if I don't take a look at it, how would you be able to change the color of that fire of yours?" Anders said, standing up and stretching languidly, slipping his pack on as Blade started to give each team their own assignments, with him and Sera scavenging, Youta and Rei on the ever-so-enjoyable duty of mass slaughter, and himself and Kasumi to search for survivors in the business district.

Of course, he's been there before, but he's only really familiar with those streets through the tinted glass of Kokkua's automated transport. Even after all that's happened, those skyscrapers must still look just as imposing. Perhaps more. He turned towards Kasumi, "They could. It won't be a great connection, but it'll help us get close enough to where I could pick it up myself. Of course, I couldn't do that if Sera burned everything I owned, so - er, don't do that, please." He said.

Anders took a slow breath, tugging a stray wire on his rifle, making sure everything was in place. "Once we're inside, as I said, we'll be close enough for these little scrap heaps to pick up on the signal. So don't worry about any sense of -" He said, interrupted by Kasumi's finger suddenly occupying his view, and her sudden request for dibs on any silencers they see.

"Oh, you're afraid of me showing you up? Have I gotten that good?" He said, a giggle almost hidden in his words, "Well - Kasumi, in that case, no silencer can save your rank now! Best give up, you know, it's only a matter of time!"

Running a hand through his hair, Anders' merriment sobered to a small smile as he added in a lower tone,
"Alright, though. Any silencer we find is yours - not like I could fit one on this monstrosity anyhow. Now, come on. Let's get going." He prodded her arm with his elbow, starting to walk outside the gates. "Shouldn't be a long walk - I think I can manage to get the old tram to work this time."

Rei listened, as Youta tried to be, well, himself first. As she listened she noticed his long glance at Kasumi, it was obvious now, that Youta had interest on Kasumi, and the way he went about it in Rei's opinion, was like he was in a romance anime at the start. Yet, Rei wasn't the only one whom noticed, Sera did as well, whom as per normal from what Rei's seen, acted possessively with Kasumi, as if she were shooting down the poor fool. Moving along Blade had spoken, with the day's duties, Blade and Sera were on scavenging Duty in the suburbs, while Kasumi and Anders investigating in the business district, and her and Youta were off to try and lessen the numbers of the dead. Taking note of what Rei was doing, she switched out her munition supplies, taking up Silencers rather than gleamers and a few normal bullets. Though she looked at Sera again, whom threatened for Kasumi's safety at the cost of Anders' electronics, while Kasumi wanted a silencer for some reason, Anders was more or less skirting around their attacks, though Rei looked at Youta, her sharp, crimson, eyes looking at Youta, and spoke, a little quieter, since she wasn't a loud person in general, "To get Downtown, we'll take alleys and side streets. They're less populated than taking the main streets, and less destroyed, since there were less people there at the time." she then turned to Sera, and spoke to her, her volume not being loud again, "Sera. If I find any candy machines of some sort, I'll go on and loot it for you. I doubt I'll find anything, but, worth a shot."

Youta nods thoughtfully at the duties of others, rescue, salvage.. And to his surprise third squad on kill duty. One of the other squads usually handle the task, still Youta is confident that they will do well. An opportunity to prove themselves. Youta notices Rei noticing Sera noticing Youta notice Kasumi, God is everybody against me going after Kasumi. And the. The gates creak , sera and Blade leave, but before Kasumi leaves Youta calls out to her. "Good luck Lue, you to Anders." He waves them off with a grin and turns to Rei as she speaks. Rei os right, avoiding trouble until they reach the destination is probably for the best. "That's totally right, so we should get going I've got all I'll need. Third squad move out." Youta is still as playful but he is speaking more at Rei's level now. The blonde walks a bit ahead of Rei as they near their destination, skirting allies and navigating backstreets as was agreed upon. Youta stops walking in one of the allies. "Hey Rei I know you probably don't like me that much, I mean I'm just so loud. Anyway what do you think of Kasumi and I? I've known her from school and I know you saw me looking at her this morning. God Youta stop rambling, what I mean to ask is if I'm doing alright in pursuing her under the circumstances." The blonde fiddles with his blade nervously looking at the ground, not used to talking like this with his partner.

He nodded to the others before he and Sera were off. "We should take the truck in case we get a big haul today." He said as they began to pass the gathering of vehicles. He hopped into the jeep and started it before motioning for her to join him. "Meat huh? Yeah I'll be sure to keep my eyes out for any cows. Though I know that during the world war times, they were able to can meat-like things. I hear that if it's cooked right, you can't even tell the difference."

He laughed a bit as he began to drive down what use to be the streets. It was barely noticeable anymore. Piles upon piles of dead bodies were around. It was surely frightening and probably sickening to those with a light stomach. He whistled slightly as they ventured from neighborhood to neighborhood. "The store is somewhere around here. But it's too quiet so keep an eye out for any walking meat piles." He then rubbed his chin. "Say~, do you think zombie tastes good? Like if we fed it to old people, would they notice? Is it even cannibalism?"He laughed a bit.

❝Grr, I wanna team up with Sumi one day...❞


ɗιαƖσgυє cσƖσя:#d62e28







Sera looked at her Combustion Module, allowing it to burst a tiny flame that she easily blew out. It was red, of course. How interesting would it be if she could have different colors for different occasions? It was certainly an interesting idea that she'd have to run by Anders later - though it was probably a silly thing to think about, considering using fire literally ate away at her lifespan. Last time she checked, she was slated to die at around twenty-five years, and well... Sera's been using much more fire since then. She wasn't really afraid to die or anything, that was never a concern. But now that she had a job, and responsibilities, such as protecting cute sweet Sumi from that lecher, Youta, Sera didn't want to suddenly drop dead just yet. She'd have to ask Anders if there was a way to fuel her fire without harming her body, but for now, that would have to wait. There was candy to retrieve after all.

The fire girl stared at the leader with incredulous eyes as the two drove down the streets that lead to the suburban district of Kokkua. Was it even safe to eat human flesh? Sure, they could cook it and stuff, but Sera distinctly remembered something about cases of dementia after cannibalism. "Assuming we could even burn the infection out of the zombies, we might have to resort to that." Sera said seriously, keeping her eyes trained ahead. "Boss, I still think we should consider trying to make a garden so we have a long lasting food supply. We don't know how much food there's left in the city, especially with all the looting."

Finally they reached what was a convenience, avoiding any of the dark clouds, and somehow not attracting any zombies, to Sera's dismay. She hopped out of the car, heading to the front of the building. "D'you mind standing guard? I'm gonna have a look around." Sera dashed into the convenience store with a bag to pile supplies in. She first went to the candy section, shoveling the entire stockpile of suckers, lollipops, and other things in. Sera also managed to find canned meat and she took those as well, adding them to a separate bag. She calmly walked around the store, taking what she needed - searching many times over for medical supplies. They needed medicine for the sick, but they also needed bandages, anti-septic, and assortments of things for when someone was injured. They'd already lost a few people to untreated infections weeks ago, and Sera wasn't willing to let that happen again.

Then she felt someone grab her from behind, clasping a hand over her mouth so she couldn't cry out. Sera cursed in her head for being taken by surprise so easily - she was so focused on her hunt for antibiotics that she didn't notice the footsteps trailing her as a group of three bandits surrounded her. "This is our base, bitch." One snarled, shutting the lights off so that Blade wouldn't see anything. "What do you think you're doing, sneaking around, taking our stuff?" Sera struggled, kicking out. Honestly, she wasn't too afraid - but she didn't want to just burn the entire convenience store down and ruin all of the supplies, right?

"What's a girl like you doing here, anyways?" Another laughed. "Stop fighting, your boyfriend outside ain't gonna come save you."

Okay, that made her angry. Sera didn't have or need a boyfriend, all she needed was Kasumi-chan! The idea was ridiculous and fire raged in her eyes as anger built up within. Sera decided to release her fires, surprising the man that was holding her from behind. Now released, she kicked him from behind, sending back backwards and jumped to land on him, tearing a knife from his pants and took one of his eyes out with it, ignoring the screams of pain and the horrible attempts at apology. "I only need Sumi, you idiots." Sera growled. She released more flame and that seemed enough to scare the other two bandits off, where they'd run straight into Blade. The girl grinned, brushing the wrinkles out of her clothes, letting her heart rate return to normal. Okay, fine, that was a little scarier than she thought.

But hell if Sera would let anyone take her candy from her.

The morning air was chilly as it pressed against Kasumi's legs, the usual silence over the city seemed to be even more eerie because of it and she noticed a black cloud hanging in the distance, eyeing it in case it was coming their way. She could hear only their footsteps and a faint rattling from the items inside their bag, but that didn't stop her from constantly glancing around, even behind them one or two times. Something about walking along the wide open street in plain daylight made her uneasy enough to constantly walk around Anders, usually walking through the shadows when they were there.

"I don't think I'll ever get used to the silence up here. I feel like its still so abnormal for this city.." She said quietly, careful not to let her voice echo too far into the distance. The infection had been going around for a while now, but even when she was in her home at a young age, there was never an absence of sound. There was always something noisy happening above, though very muffled. Her gaze darted towards a car in the distance as she heard shuffling and raised her spear. One of the undead appeared and looked towards them but she sighed and lowered her weapon. It was just one, and it wouldn't reach them before they got to the old tram, there was no point wasting their time on just one straggler.

"Finally, we're here." She mumbled as she soundlessly sprinted for the gates that went down into the darkness. She smiled to herself as she finally felt comfortable again. She always liked the idea of the old tram better than the skyy tram, which ran over the entire city. She held up a hand to Anders, making him guard the entrance for a moment while she crept into the darkness. She glanced around the old station looking for any signs of movement. Despite it being pitch black, she could see almost perfectly once her eyes adjusted. She waited a moment until going back to get Anders.
"It looks empty." She half whispered, "Do your thing."

"Yeah. When you imagine a ghost town, you think of some rusted down old westerner town. You know, like in the desert, with cowboys and natives." Anders replied, "You don't think of a city that once held millions of loud, noisy people to be silenced like this."

Anders didn't fear the empty city like most - it awed him. Humbled him. The knowledge that something once so mighty and large as Kokkua could fall, just like any titan. Yet the infrastructure was still there, most buildings pristine, still standing tall without anyone to maintain them.

He dutifully kept watch over the entrance as Kasumi did her search. Once he got the all-clear, he fumbled his way inside, as his night vision was nowhere near as good as Kasumi's, and thus, it took him over a minute to find the doors to the tram. Pulling a half-sized crowbar from his pack, he pried at the door, making an opening just wide enough for him to slip inside. "Come on, Kasumi." He called, keeping his voice low as he crept to the cabin.

Once there, he started prying panels and tugging at wires in the low red light provided by the flashlight he held between his teeth. More than once, sparks would fly, and Anders would give a muffled swear as his silhouette was briefly surrounded with light. Of course, his mind was occupied, and he was making enough noise as it was that he easily missed more than a few more in the distance.

Eventually his efforts came to fruition. He wrenched down a rusting lever, and faint crackle could be heard above the tram as the cabin lights sprung on, illuminating aged, peeling advertisements, worn seats. and a bloody floor. Anders gave a whoop, "It's on! I got this goddamn thing to turn on!" He turned towards Kasumi, his expression beaming, "What's easily a two - no, three hour walk is going to be a thirty minute ride. This is great!" He starts flipping more switches as he talks, causing a hiss below, the doors to fully open, and for the front lights to turn on, illuminating a few infected slowly making their way towards the literal beacon of noise and light in front of them.

"Do you want to do the honors?" He asked, pointing towards a lever in the center. "Just pull it to about halfway, and we'll be able to push right through them and be on our way."

Quietly Rei had moved out, it was a normal thing for her to keep the pace moderately fast, and especially stealthy, checking corners before moving around them, and even silently engaging single zombies from behind and bloodying them up with often an ice pick she just so happened to find in the city. Though as she stopped briefly, checking around a corner, Youta spoke, saying something about not liking him much because he's loud, which wasn't all true. Rei, to be clearly honest, was alright with Youta, since he never really did much that would anger her, she's just distant to everyone rather than a few. However, the second part, more or less confirmed what Rei already knew, that Youta liked Kasumi, as she peered around the corner, she saw nothing, but spoke, quietly and calmly,

"In my honest opinion. You wouldn't get far with Sera there. She protects Kasumi more than anyone else. So you have little chance of getting the girl." her words were sharp, but not cruel, he wanted honesty and Rei doesn't sugarcoat anything. Though upon realization she was good, she spoke again, "We're clear. We'll follow Gold Street to downtown. Then. We just pick off what we can." soon moving from the cover, she looked back at Youta, taking out a small handgun with pink on the grip, it look weathered, but Rei knew it could fire, she looked at Youta, crimson eyes and all, the small caliber handgun in hand, grip facing her ally, "If worst comes to worst. Use this. And save a bullet for yourself." A remark that he's going into more melee range of the infected, which meant he could get grabbed at any point. So she wanted to make sure that no ally will have to be shot by her, and soon proceeded down Gold Street, towards what could be a hell for her.

Blade sat back and nodded as he heard her. "Alright. Just don't take too long we have a lot of ground to cover." He sat back and began to kick his feet up as he relaxed for a moment. He looked around a bit taking in the terrible wasteland that was the city. It was tragic. But, thanks to the walkers, hopefully the civilization could survive and once this plague had passed, we could rebuild civilization and restore Kokkua to it's beautiful self.

Soon Blade began to grow bored. "What the hell is taking so long?" He said before standing from the cart and going to the doors. As he approached them and opened one of the doors, he paused seeing a man collide into his chest. He was not phased however, the thug who ran into him, only fell back onto the floor. He noticed the eye injury on one and sighed a bit while shaking his head. "I can't even leave you alone for ten minutes without you terrorizing some men." He said with a cheerful laugh before removing his sword from his side. It glew bright with pure energy. "Now then gentlemen. We don't have a problem here, do we?" He said with a smirk.

He paused seeing one trying to escape and quickly tripped him onto the floor with his leg before pointing the edge of the sword to him as well. "Now listen. I don't like you bandits hurting my companions. Hear me? Now get out of my sight of I'll remove more than just an eye."

❝Grr, I wanna team up with Sumi one day...❞


ɗιαƖσgυє cσƖσя:#d62e28







Just as expected, Blade was there to the rescue, making sure they regretted what they had tried to do - though with one missing an eye, that was probably a big enough lesson. Turning the lights back on, Sera shot Blade a thumbs up and a grin, gathering her bags and climbing back into the car, counting what she gathered now that the bandits were out of sight. After a few minutes, Sera tied the plastic bags up, carefully depositing them into the back of the car. "That should be enough to feed everyone for a few days." Sera said clinically, then grinned at the boss, eyes gleaming. "You could've just killed them, though! I mean, they're just gonna cause more innocents trouble later on if we leave them alive, right? Are you too much of a goody two-shoes to get rid of'em, boss?" Sera had a rare teasing smile, patting Blade on the back from the passenger's seat. "I'm joking, I'm joking, probably. Let's keep going, we've gotta find antibiotics for the sick people!"

As they drove to the suburban district, where houses lines with identical houses filled the streets, it just made Sera feel strange. She never really lived in a normal kind of house before, never really had that kind of normal life. Her whole childhood was being stuffed in a science lab, poked with needles, prodded with metal things, and forced to make fire to test out a dangerous thing inside her hand. She had no idea what it meant to be normal, really. Heck, Sera wasn't even sure what it was even like to be loved - all she knew was that at some point, probably, everything could be taken away from her if she wasn't careful. A determined glare was on Sera's face as she and Blade looted houses, gathering more supplies, but still failing to find the medicine they needed.

"...Hey, while we're here..." Sera looked up at the boss, a quizzical look on her face. "If we have spare time, we could hunt down the main base where the bandits live. If we kill them all, then that means there's less mouths to feed overall, right?" A dangerous smile was on her face, excitement of a battle. "The less people alive in Kokkua, the more food our team gets, right? But if you don't wanna, that's fine. It was just an idea."

Sera really wanted to go and kill them, but she knew Blade was the boss. In the end, it was his decision. But scum like that who were a threat to their livelihood, wasn't it smart to clean them out before they pressed the attack?

Kasumi shielded her eyes from the bright headlights breaking through the darkness and blinked a few times as she saw the zombies walking towards them along the track. She glanced to Anders as he offered her the honors of starting the big lug of iron and put her hand on it, pushing down with her hand. She tilted her head as the bar wouldn't budge and tried to push it down a few more times before finally putting her full body's weight behind it. The lever fell to the halfway point and she glanced around as a terrible creaking sound echoed through the empty cabins.

"Ah... the lever was rusted." She glanced away, embarrassed by her lack of strength. Sure, she was extremely agile, but she had no strength whatsoever. She turned her eyes to the zombies as the train lurched forward and began making its way slowly towards them. They clawed at the train as it pushed uneventfully past them and Kasumi sighed.
"That was... disappointing..." She mumbled. She picked up er spear and shoved half of her body out an open window, slashing the zombies heads off with her spear. She turned back to Anders with a smile.
"We're such a great team, right?" She smirked.

Kasumi settled into one of the seats as she watched the train move through the underground tunnel. She glanced at the makeshift beds created from trash and torn blankets, splattered with blood all along the tunnel floors and shook her head. The people never had a chance of survival in such an open place, even if it was underground, there were still pipes and air vents from the sky above. She turned her eyes to the actual walls themselves as graffiti began appearing along the walls.
"Turn back."
"No sanctuary."
"We're dead."

Kasumi stared quietly at the last phrase of writing on the wall.
"Pola, go to the tallest building."
She sighed heavily and decided to keep her eyes to the floor of the train. She remembered the empty hole in her heart when she was looking for her friends, and felt sad that, most likely, everyone in the city was looking for someone. The world had become so depressing.
"Do you ever miss your family?" She asked.

Youta looks at the ground somewhat solemnly, taking in what Rei has to say. Youta figured as much, if he wanted anything to do he would have to figure out what Sera was all about. Youta looks up and into Rei's eyes, his own orbs projecting an unusual seriousness. "Thanks Rei, that might have not been what I wanted to hear but it was what I needed to hear. I do appreciate you're quiet ways. Anyway we have some killing to do. How about we get to it then?" Youta smiles a toothy grin again only to give Rei a thumbs up, returning to his goofy antics. He stops in place when Rei offers the blonde a small nun, her words are morbid but realistic. Youta's smile only slightly dips, "How macabre, I seriously don't hope it comes to that. I have people that I need to make smile." Even though the statement sounded arrogant Youta meant it, and he takes the gun eyeing the piece before pocketing it.

The two walked in silence for a while, making their way through less populated streets until they take Gold Street until they reached the downtown area. Youta unsheathed the sword putting on a brave smile. "So I hack and slash and you go pew-pew bang-bang?" Youta puts the idea of slaying the undead into the context of a bad joke, he looks down the street starting to see more and more of the undead. He knows it's about to begin. "Ready when you are my lady." Youta proclaims in a mix gentleman voice.

Anders couldn't help but snicker at her ordeal. Kasumi might be quick, but she could definitely use some more muscle. Last thing he'd need is to get pinned under some debris and she wouldn't be able to help. He gave a small tug on the lever, finding it a bit easier to move now that she had broken down the rust. "Yeah, it's not easy to break through rust. Takes bigger men a lot longer to move something like that." He said encouragingly.

"I prefer disappointing to exciting. When things get exciting, that's a pretty good indicator that everything's going wrong." He mused, leaning on the console. "Besides, we've still got a small walk once we get out of here. No doubt the place will be swarming - you'll get your fix then." He said, glancing over as she started taking potshots as the tram rolled past the few dead that still lingered.

He thought for a moment after her next statement. Logically, they work well together. His rifle's charged with electricity, her spear is as well. She prefers to be alone, especially when on missions like these - and, well, he can still do his job at an extreme distance. And so far, they've never failed. Neither of them have died or got bit, or even been severely injured. "We do pretty good together." He concluded with a smile. "Let's hope that never ends, yeah?"

Anders, too, was studying the somber messages, when Kasumi asked her question.

He said nothing for a moment, biting the end of his lip. "You think - ah, that Pola person found who they were looking for?" He muttered, knowing full well he was dodging the question. Though he wasn't quite sure why. Did he want to seem strong, maybe? Or were the memories now too distant for him to recall? Maybe he knew somewhere within that it was a slim chance he'd see them again. The thoughts didn't bring him to tears, or even sadness. It was an emotion he hated - the feeling of resignation. A lack of hope.

"No point in being an ass about it. I suppose you, out of all the others should get a proper answer." He said, sighing, "Yeah. I miss them. Miss everything that made it so dysfunctional, too. Somehow, it's both better and worse, knowing they're an ocean away. They might be safe, they might not, but chances are I won't see them again. Not like families here, I guess. Some might get a chance to say goodbye. To apologize."

He punctuated this by slamming the throttle up, (even he had to admit the rusty joint was difficult to move) and tugging on the brakes as he saw the exit he had been looking for. If his memory was right, they shouldn't be no more than two or three blocks away. As they pulled up to the terminal, he saw faintly-flickering fluorescent lights and sunlight streaming through the underground entrance.

He unpacked the trio of disks from his bag, and in rapid succession, threw each like a frisbee through the tram's doors. And one by one, each gave a momentary rumble, then started to hover as some unseen number of blades sprouted from within, keeping them aloft by cutting through the air (and likely any flesh it encounters). He then pulled a small device from his bag, and set off with his rifle in the other hand. The three drones hovered around him for a few seconds before disappearing up the steps, heading towards the street.

"Those things will help us find the source of the signal. Meanwhile, we can roast the undead, walk around, and have ourselves a fun time. No need to talk about things we can't change." He said, following the robotic trio up and out.

The street was relatively clear, though the noise of the tram had started to draw the attention of some undead - many of whom were now shambling towards the entrance. He decided to start the day off by bringing his rifle to bear on a small cluster. As he squeezed the trigger, the hair on his head stood up on end. His shoulder was thrown back and sparks erupted from the front as the projectile completely mulched the leading one, and threw back the behind ones in various states of dismemberment.

Blade raised an eyebrow as he listened to her and laughed a bit. "What a terrible thought Sera. Those 'bandits' already have it bad enough living in an unsecured environment. They don't live how we do. We have an entire civilization expertly crafted with not only doctors and scientists but professionals of other fields. We were lucky to have crafted such a living. They on the other hand are not that lucky. They don't have the assortment of food and water. Truthfully, we should be helping them instead of trying to prevent them from surviving." He smiled a bit. His kind heart would most likely prevent him from trying to do what she said regardless. "I'd offer them a spot in the civilization but I knew you would be against that so I didn't try. Who knows. Maybe they will come to us one day in hopes of help. And you know what Sera, I'd do it for sure."

He snickered and started the vehicle before looking to her. "I've been taken in what you said about the whole produce thing. I suppose our biggest problem would be trying to plant food underground and all. Plus to keep the crops alive, we would have to give up a large number of our water supply. On a good note, the engineers finally finished their development of our first windmill recently. With that electricity will slowly but surely be stable and if it works out, we can craft more with lines connecting underground." He smirked and laughed a bit. "Believe it or not Sera, the spirit of Kokkua is slowly coming back and one day when these damn zombies are long and gone, we'll rise to the surface again. Just you wait."

He slowly began to whistle as he began to look around for more small convince stores or plazas to raid. He soon stopped in front of a small building. "You head in there and I'll keep watch of the front for bandits. Hey, and if you see some smokes in there, mind handing them my way?"

Rei listened to her ally, as per normal, it wasn't that shocking that she'd listen to what others had said. Though as she looked about the city, looking at the carnage, and especially the dead, how could one even imagine to survive the mess that was caused? Yet as she watched, something caught her eye, and surprised her as it did, since it was some sort of suitcase falling from the sky, with the way it tumbled, it was apparant that it was knocked from a floor of some sort, so it came from a building, as Rei scanned the ground, she saw something else, instead of the dead she noticed bandits, whom swarmed around the bag like a pack of hyenas, cackling and everything, unaware of the hidden walkers. As the bag hit the ground, with a loud thud and soon it's contents flew, from what Rei could see, it was food, this easily got weapons drawn as Rei looked to her partner, her eyes, showing her cut-throat nature when it came to food. Being where she was from, one would fight to the death for their next meal, and while the bandits almost scrambled to collect the food, Rei spoke quietly, "Those looters have food. And from the sound and how the food burst out, they have a lot of it. I don't care what Blade said we are to do, nor do I give a damn what you do. I'm going for that to ensure we have a meal." her words were quiet as normal, while she moved, going for a flank, not caring for what Youta did, so long as he stayed out of her way. Guns drawn she peered around a corner, though stealth was not something Rei was good at, and one of the bandits shot up, yelling do his allies,

"Hey, guys! We got a little rat here!" he yelled, with the other two looking up, with weapons in hand, on a quick analysis, Rei was outgunned, as they had automatic fire, though at a glance, they had no idea how to even so much as fire the weapon properly, a gun like that as Rei remembered, was best fired two handed, while it can be fired with one, it would be horribly inaccurate, and it was likely that they'd miss, that is, if it weren't for the fact that there was three of them, each with one of these now buzzing weapons as they ripped into the wall briefly. Admittedly Rei was spooked, having never been in a fight where she was outgunned like this. With a sigh, Rei picked up the communicator, and spoke into it, to hopefully awaken the hornet's nest that were her friends, something she knew over the time that was spent, Blade would come running to any woman in distress.

"This is Rei." That was the first transmission through the cackling radio, "I'm currently in a gunfight against possibly five enemies. I could use aid on Gold Street towards downtown." soon her eyes turned to Youta, whom she knew was at a disadvantage, and soon shouted at him, "Stay down or you'll get shot! Let me handle this mess!" and soon after the buzzing sound had echoed into the air, and bullets flew by Rei, whom laughed, They're better with them than I thought. she thought snickering, this was something she knew, gunfights. With that, she moved, firing at the three, causing them to duck into cover, and thus the fight began.
