Survive First

One of the tactics that Jeniel learned from Lina’s teaching is to use anything- any factors or means to survive. Seeing how many hoards of zombies they brought with them, there’s a 0 percent of survival... She can only use one method
“DON’T GO THERE! WE WILL ONLY BRING THEM IN DANGER!” she infuriatingly declared which made the others think twice
“Then… then, what should we do?” Sarah worriedly ask, trying to figure the way out of the situation “Darn it! That’s the only safe place that we can find! What do you want us to do? Tire ourselves out by running?!” an unfamiliar voice was heard and Jeniel realized that the manager also tag along with them
The man rushed through the old building’s entrance without thinking twice
Pausing for anticipation, the others didn’t realize but their running slowed down “GRAB THE MAN!” Sarah can’t think of any plan but she only knows that if they act recklessly now, it will lead to death
Judging the situation, in a short period of time- Jeniel created a plan in her head “let him”
Hearing what she said, question field their mind
Christian knows how bright Jeniel can be. He knows that she deserves to be his sister’s disciple, she’s the only student that Lina can approve and be proud of… not him
Trusting her judgment, they followed her when she entered another building
“WHAT ARE THEY DOING?! OPEN THE DOOR! OPEN THE FUCKING DOOR!” Dionelle witnessed it all and as a guardian of all the students, he felt the pressure building up at the back of his neck “those stupid kids! I’m going to teach them a lesson!”
Wanting to go outside, he saw the old and distressed manager
Ren tried to ask the man but he only got a shout and a curse “I just escaped hell and now you’re taking me on the hot seat?! What a disrespectful brat!”
Dionelle understands his situation, being with those brats can be considered living in hell. With that thoughts, He decided to bring them to the old cafeteria in his own hands- by hook or by crook
But their situation didn’t let him carry on in his plans
“SHUT THE DOOR!”
“HURRY!”
The students don’t have any chance to process what’s happening, some of the infected got inside
Apparently, they are preoccupied with the old manager’s situation and didn’t have the time to shut back close the door “It’s not too late! Ren, help me!” Dionelle initiated to close the door even though there were many infected rushing inside
Ren look back and think twice ‘how about these people?’ he saw how the infected gnawed the skin of whoever they can reach to
“Ren! They need to protect themselves! If we lose this place now, we don’t know what will happen to us! it’ll be hard to reunite with your friends any… more” the man stopped talking when he felt the chills and cold coming from the outside
Dionelle can only think of one person that can make the temperature drop “SHE’S HERE!” he cheered before freeing his hands from the door “SHE’S FUCKING HERE!”
He grab to whatever solid and smashed it to the infected’s head “Ren! Snap out of it! Get up and help those people”
Finding himself in the middle of all the troubles, Ren thought to himself ‘what are you doing? You can cot be useless this time!’
He saw the old chef, hiding at the top of the counter while hugging his knife- like it’s the most important thing to his life ‘if only I have a weapon’ his thoughts, once again got him distracted
The flesh of flying bees that got smashed by Dionelle smeared Ren’s cheeks, some of it landed to the top of his head “this child! Hey! If you still want to live, move your ass and do something useful!”
Words got stuck in his mind and heart, he knows that corporal Martin used to be a soft-spoken person… but him, being like this- it made Ren feel more like a trash
Watching the child’s hurt face, the man wants to take his words back. He tried to grab into his shoulder but the old manager rushed through him and hugged him tightly “protect me! Please! I’m begging you”
Angered about the situation, Dionelle look at the man’s face irritatingly
“Hold my hand tightly”
The man’s face lit up and mouthed ‘thank you’
Dionelle scoffed, suddenly grabbing the man’s two hands. He spin both his body and the manager’s- hitting all the infected that rushed through them
The spinning stopped when a cold object trapped his feet to the ground “Wa… what?”
“I’m surprised. You know this savage technique?”
The manager’s body drop down on the floor “ugh!” he grab unto his foot and cried
Nathan whistled “you broke his bone Mr good soldier” stepping closer, he looked at Ren. The child shook when he felt the sharp gaze ‘this is the real Nathan’ the little boy reminded himself, witnessing how cold the demon’s eyes are… it’s the ruthless and real Nathan
Rolling his eyes, Dionelle Martin glared “release me” he declared, and once again, the tension build-up
All of them knows that Nathan’s affectionate and gentle side is always reserved for Lina… only her
Christian once creeped out when he received the cold treatment of the demon, they all know him as a jolly and kind mister… but everyone has a mask
And the whole existence of Nathan proved it
The two of them hold their breath when the demon suddenly appeared beside Ren. Caressing his shoulder and hair, the boy can’t help but tear up
“What a loss… you let your dark thoughts overcome you” Nathan muttered making the boy drop down to his knees and cry his eyes out
Dionelle realized that the restraint was gone and rushed through the child to comfort him
A minute passed when Ren’s breakdown stopped, Nathan held his hand to Dionelle which he accepted, and got up with the child “Tsk. What a jerk”
Nathan looks at his hand in question, he opens it again in Dionelle’s face and speaks “Where’s the water?” the man blinked twice ‘water?’
His face paled, realizing what he mean “I… I rushed here thinking that you all might be in danger. The whole house is in a state of disaster. The demon, Astran pushed me to the door. I don’t have time to grab anything with me! I just even run here, with only two feet! I didn’t even bring my car here and you think that I will bring her water?!”
The demon’s face crumpled, wiping off the liquid that splashed from the man’s mouth to his face… he can’t get angrier
Looking at his red face, Dionelle think of an excuse to calm the demon and he found one good reason- blame his negligence on others
“It’s the other demon’s fault! I saw him held to Lina’s tumbler when I left!” Carrying Ren, Dionelle hardly puffed his chest
Nathan stop in his track and face him once more “That demon?”
Corporal Martin almost leaps in joy when he saw the angry expression on Nathan’s face, he doesn’t know the reason but this demon shows displeasure to Astran. The very reason why Dionelle will use the other demon as a scapegoat for his anger
“Come out”
Shivers run through the corporal’s body
With only words, Nathan showed his intimidating aura, and everyone in the room- even the people who doesn’t know him felt fear
Smoke came out of Dionelle’s body and even he, got weirded out when the smoke formed a familiar figure “that’s bad. You shouldn’t lie like that!” scratching the back of his head, Astran sneered at Dionelle
Everyone gasped when the sharp ice appeared directly at Astran’s throat “where’s your original body?” stepping closer, blood dripped from his body and seeing Nathan’s eyes- they are in the color of red… indicating that he wants to see more of the liquid
Shaking, Dionelle hesitantly steps out and taps Nathan’s shoulder “its… the water is what you- Lina needs, right? He has it! You can't kill him!”
Pressing the ice more unto his skin, Astran’s clone can only shake his head “WHAT DO YOU MEAN? YOU LEFT WITHOUT THE WATER! WHY IS IT WITH ME NOW?”
Silence passed and the demon can tell that he did the wrong thing
He felt the unbearable pain in his neck and he just realized that shaking his head earlier will also harm his skin… now, the flesh in his throat was wide open- bones almost peeking from it
“Killing you also means the disappearance of Astran’s persona… is it true?”
Swallowing, the clone knows that Nathan also has the mind-reading ability- who knows how did he acquire it but it means that lying is not an option here “THE ORIGINAL OWNER IS ON HIS WAY TO MILADY! HE BROUGHT THE WATER WITH HIM!”
Doesn’t have any more choice, he can only bring his original body to hell with him
Lifting one of his eyebrows, Nathan showed his disgusted expression “demon and their traitorous trait” he look around and saw that many of the students survive, he signaled them to follow him
Once again, he look at Astran’s clone “I can’t kill you now. Come here” bringing out one of his artifacts, Nathan glared at him “cloning is hard to even for the demons. I know that he sacrificed a part of him to create you”
The survivors stopped from moving, getting in between these two creatures will be a pain in the ass- they all know that. Looking at Nathan’s behavior, they can’t tell if they will be safe with him
“So, what are you? A part of his organ? Memory? Emotion? Seeing how stupid you are… you’re his guts?” the others witnessed how the other demon showed a vein in his jaw, suppressing his anger “oh, you’re his pride… what an interesting choice” Nathan settled to his conclusion
Dionelle step back when he saw that Nathan rushed through Astran and grab his head, everyone thought that they will fight
But after Astran hit the artifact, he suddenly disappeared
After the scene, Nathan’s eyes look at everyone “what are you waiting for? If the ice melt, they will all escape” his monotone voice brings chills to everyone, they even lined up just to act behave in his perspective ‘we need this man to survive!’
Seeing the trapped bees and infected beneath the ice, they felt secure. Who cares if this man is a psychopath?! He can save them all!
“This… this will last long, right?” Dionelle hesitantly asked
Nathan’s eye moved from the broken door to the dumb soldier “I can’t take Lina’s infinite ice but this will do. Hurry before they bomb this city” everyone was shocked in his last sentence but they can’t voice out their worries
He runs through the other building where Jeniel and the others entered earlier “I can tell that Jeniel is smarter than you, good soldier. The little girl escaped the hoard but you didn’t” Dionelle frown
Not wanting for more words fight, he keeps his mouth shut and run faster to the rooftop
“JUST SLAP HER! SHE WILL WAKE UP because of the impact…” they aren’t that far when they heard an unfamiliar voice “I TOLD YOU! YOU CAN'T HURT MY FRIEND!” Christian voice followed and Dionelle’s heart feel eased
‘They are safe’
They were welcomed on the roof with a large SOS sign, Jeniel saw Ren and rushed through him “Good thing You’re safe. Come on! We need your knowledge, Christian can’t concentrate because of Lorey’s condition” she grab his hand and lead him to the broken radio
Dionelle still wants to have a conversation with Jeniel, he wants to know what she did to get rid of all those infected that’s tailing them earlier but they seem so busy. He smiled awkwardly
“Yo! Mio Amico! I expected you to die but… look here! Alive and well!” Astran laughs and smacks his back. The soldier wants to shrug him off but his clone, who just save him from Nathan’s anger earlier is picking his conscience, he smiled
“C’mon, who are you to talk to? I left you to that house, even lock it outside but still… You’re alive! Truly is bad grass doesn't right away die” he laugh hard but eventually stopped when he felt the intimate stare of the demon
“Did you give these kids a hard scolding? What they did is dangerous, they’re fortunate that we came in time. They can’t even use their abilities and just escape this situation by running! Can you believe it? They tired themselves out when they fought the queen of the bees but they can’t clean the aftermath?” Astran look at his reaction but Dionelle’s face only showed confusion
“What in the bloody hell?! You did not scold them?! This situation will go even worse, you know? They abduct the queen of an island and kill it. How do you think the underlings will react?! They go on a rampage!” minute have passed and the demon can’t still see any reaction from the man’s face
Raising both of his hands up, he surrenders. Dionelle’s stupidity is beyond his ability, he can’t cure it
Watching Lina straightly gulp down the water, the demon waited for the incoming drama. He saw Nathan guide the woman but the latter one slap his hands away “YOU KNOW WHAT THESE KIDS DID! I DIDN’T TEACH THOSE CHILDREN JUST TO MAKE THIS STUPID MISTAKE!”
Her rampage felt amazing for Astran’s entertainment, licking his lip- he finds her angry face beautiful
A flying pan suddenly hit his chest and Nathan’s eyes glowed red, glaring at him
Clearing his throat, he looks at the other side- Christian who is still clueless about what they just did, the unconscious Lorey, the Mourning Ren, and lastly, Jeniel who’s hiding.
The demon laugh when he realized that the little girl was only distracting herself from the sin and guilt that was bugging her
‘She should be, I can smell the blood from here’
Smiling, Astran anticipated for the next scenario ‘this is much better than the drama in that magic box’
