4-Black Hooded Figure

The Black Hooded Figure quickly dodged the incoming Baseball Bat from Arthur. The Baseball Bat went through and didn't hit anything other than the Wall. *PANG!!!* The Sound echoed within the Hallway, and the Undead heard the Noise caused by the Baseball Bat. Arthur stopped attacking and looked at the one that whispered to him. He had a Cold Expression on his face while looking at the Black Hooded Figure.

"I didn't know you were that Violent..." The Black Hooded Figure calmly said with a soft voice. Hearing what the Black Hooded Figure said, Nerves slowly appeared on Arthur's face. Arthur shook his head and calmed his heart. Being led by his Own Emotions was dangerous, but the actions the Black Hooded Figure had done were unforgivable. Arthur then spoke with a Cold Tone. "You shouldn't have sneaked on me."

The Black Hooded Figure began thinking about its Mistakes. The Undead Horde slowly walked onto the Corner, where the Sound they heard echoed. Arthur looked back and noticed that his plan got destroyed by his actions. Arthur sighed in disappointment, but he also sighed in relief that his body could move that fast in an Emergency. After a while of thinking, The Black Hooded Figure bowed in front of Arthur.

"I Apologize as I didn't notice that you were planning to do something. I thought that you were looking at the Dead People on the Staircase and would turn back after seeing them." The Black Hooded Figure immediately apologizes. Arthur, hearing the Apology, nodded to himself. It seemed that the Black Hooded Figure knew to Apologize as well. Arthur then spoke. "You should be careful on who you are trying to sneak on."

The Black Hooded Figure nodded after hearing what Arthur said. After the two of them understood that the problem was no more, It was time to deal with the next problem. It was the Undead Horde that got attracted by the Sound from Arthur's Baseball Bat. Arthur looked at the Corner, and an Injured Hand appeared. The Undead Horde growled as it finally found the Fleshy Prey it was looking for.

"Before talking to each other about our problems. We should deal with this one." Arthur said while holding his Baseball Bat tightly. Seeing Arthur's actions, The Black Hooded Figure began its Sword Stance. The Undead Horde finally appeared, and the two of them were currently in front of the Horde. The Black Hooded Figure was about to charge to the Undead Horde until Arthur's Hand holds its hand to escape away from the Undead Horde.

The Two of them were running away from the Undead Horde. The Black Hooded Figure was still shocked at what happened. While running through the Hallway, They could meet many roaming Undead. They could then see the Bathroom and looked back at the Hallway. They couldn't see the Undead Horde, so they entered the Bathroom of the School to hide in there.

Arthur was panting while holding his Baseball Bat tightly. He couldn't help but feel bad about his Weak Stamina. He should try to train his body in the Apocapylse as there would be a time where he would be forced to run for hours without stop. While Arthur was out of breath, The Black Hooded Figure came out of shock. "I thought we were going to fight them?" Arthur looked at the Black Hooded Figure as if it was an Idiot.

"Don't blame me for thinking like that. You acted like you were about to charge towards the Dead People." The Black Hooded Figure shook its head as Arthur realized that some of his Survivor Habits appeared in this New Life. That Habit was a Feint Habit that he cultivated in the Apocalypse. It was a Habit that would only appear when he planned to escape. It might have misunderstood people around him.

"I'm sorry about that. It is a Strange Habit. I would give you a Signal when to fight." Arthur apologized as it was his fault for acting like that. But that doesn't mean he would forget the Sneak Issue of the Black Hooded Figure. After some thoughts about the Black Hooded Figure, Arthur finally had a Calm Observation of one of the strongest people within the School. He looked at the Black Hooded Figure with a furrowed eyebrows and spoke.

"Are you a Girl?" Arthur asked with curiosity plastered upon his face. The Black Hooded Figure sighed and took out the Hood. She had a Mask covering her face, but that didn't block her beauty. It only amplified it. She had Coal-Black Hair and Red Crimson Eyes. She was the Opposite of Arthur, who had Blue Azure Eyes. Her Hair was Short which was perfect for Battle, and her Skin was Pale White which signifies great care.

"You are a Beauty, but Beauty is a Poison within this Lawless World," Arthur said with full honesty despite her Beauty. Beautiful People within the Apocalypse World were Dangerous and Poisonous. It would be better to avoid them, but since she knew how to fight. Arthur wouldn't mind being with her. "I know... There is a reason why I have a Hood and a Mask covering my Head." The Black-Haired Girl answered. She already knew that her Beauty was Dangerous.

"Well, As long as you're self-aware about the Danger." It was a good thing that the Black-Haired Girl was self-aware about the Dangers. She even already covered her face before someone told her about the Dangers of Beauty. Before closing the conversion, Arthur wanted to ask one important thing. "Can you introduce yourself?" He wanted to know the name of the Girl as he was curious about her Future.

"My Name? My name is Lilith Reid." Lilith answered and gave her name to Arthur. She wanted Arthur to introduce himself, but it seemed that he was in deep thought. 'Lilith? The Name is nostalgic...' Arthur could feel that the name sound nostalgic. He wanted to remember it, and he then quickly got hit by an Unknown Memory. He had a shocked expression plastered on his face.

Arthur was looking at Lilith with a shocked expression. Lilith couldn't help but feel worried about the situation. Was there something wrong with her name? Would they be enemies? Such thoughts echoed within her mind. Arthur's shocked expression disappeared as he introduces himself to Lilith. "My name is Arthur Ironhearth." Arthur gave out a Handshake. The two of them finally knew each other's names.

"Anyway, We should get out of this bathroom and continue on our ways," Arthur said, but within his mind were many thoughts about Lilith. It was not about her Beauty or anything else. It was about her Power and her Ability. Lilith Reid in was Future was a Powerhouse. She was a Powerhouse that could easily rival many Organizations alone. Never did he thought that he would meet her in this School.

Lilith had an Awakened Ability called Telekinesis. It might not have been much, but as she evolved. She got stronger and stronger that bullets wouldn't work at her. She can easily lift buildings with no problem and probably kill people with a flick of her fingers. She was Merciless, but she also had a group of her own. She already made it clear that she was disgusted by liars, but in the end, she died by being betrayed by her own group, which was ironic.

"Okay." Lilith nodded as the two of them prepared for facing the Undead. Arthur had a conflict within his mind. He wondered if he could have Lilith within his Group. It was like seeing a Chest full of Gold, but he couldn't carry it as it was too heavy. Arthur shook his head and decided to face the Undead Horde first before dealing with Lilith.

Arthur held his Baseball Bat tightly, and the two of them left the Bathroom. They met themselves within the Hallway and found that there were Undead roaming around the Hallway. Lilith sliced one of the Undead while Arthur bashed his Baseball Bat on the Head of the Undead. Two Undeads fell on the ground, and the two of them were left alone in the Current Hallway.

"Lilith, Scout the Area. I'll take something important from the Undead." Arthur said as he took out the Crystalized Core that was covered by a Towel. He plans on taking the Crsytalized Core as they could make him stronger at a fast speed. Lilith looked at him and nodded. She then walked towards the Hallway and looked around to check for the Undead.

Arthur began ravaging the Bashed Head and the Sliced Head of the Two Undead. He took out Two White Crystalized Core and nodded with a satisfied expression. He had Three Crsytalized Cores within his Towel, which was a good thing. He wanted to gain more, but there was no need to be ready. There was much Undead he could kill from.

Arthur then stored the Towel in his pockets and walked towards Lilith, who was scouting everything near them. "Are you finish on robbing the Dead People?" Lilith asked with curiosity. The way she worded it would have pissed many people, but Arthur understood that she didn't mean anything bad about it. "Yeah, There are important as they could help me on my growth." After answering Lilith, Arthur walked past her and heads towards the Third Floor.

'Growth?' Lilith thought to herself as her curiosity about Arthur grew. She followed Arthur as he had a Strange Aura as if he knows everything that was about to happen. "I'm heading to the Faculty on the Third Floor, so If you plan on escaping, you should act now before nightfall," Arthur said while walking towards the Staircase. It didn't have any Undead near it as they managed to disperse the Undead Horde that covered it.

"That suggestion is asking me to walk to my Death," Lilith said as Arthur realized what he said. He got confused about the Early Lilith and the Powerhouse Lilith. He unconsciously thought that she was some overpowered being but in the First Day of the Apocalypse. Lilith Reid was just a Normal Skilled-Human the same as him. "I'm sorry. I have a strange subconscious thought of you being strong enough to do anything." Arthur apologized.

"You think highly of me, but I'm a weak human like you," Lilith said as she climbed the staircase leading to the Third Floor. With the current mentality of Lilith, It wasn't surprising how she managed to survive in the Apocalypse. Arthur really wanted her within his group as she would evolve into a Powerhouse. Having a Powerhouse in his group would be a good thing.

'This is still the first day of the Apocalypse. There is no need to be impatient.' Arthur thought to himself as he would gladly make Lilith join him. It might take a lot of time, but as long as he would be honest about his thoughts and not lie to her for the whole journey. She might trust him and join his group. Such a plan might fail, but it was better to try than never try.

The Two of them arrived on the Third Floor. Unlike the Second Floor, There was a Strange High number of Undead within the Third Floor. It might be the ones that never escape or the ones that tried to climb upwards after seeing the chaos on the First Floor. The Two of them didn't plan on fighting their way through. They stealthy walked through the Third Floor and arrived at the Hallway that meets the Faculty.

"The Hallway is unusually clean..." Lilith mumbled as Arthur was also suspicious about the Hallway. The Two of them entered through it with silent footsteps. They arrived at the Door of the Faculty and slowly opened it. As they opened the Door, They met another Group of Students that managed to arrive before them.

"This is unexpected," Arthur was a bit surprised, but he got his poker face automatically activated.
