Nope

Diana parked her pick up truck in front of her brother's high school and waited. She looked at the building and couldn't help but reminisce. She had gone to high school twice, once in her previous life and now when she had reincarnated. The first time was rough, she was just a normal girl competing with beauty standards imposed by women with money and men who did not understand.

In her next life, it was better. Due to her reincarnation gift of having an enhanced physiology, she was the most beautiful girl in school. Her hair was silky, her skin creamy and her body proportioned. What the others did not know was just how strong she was and how much she had trained. When she realized he gift, she started working out until she couldn't move. She recovered ten times the fittest person so this did not put her down for long.

She started practicing mixed martial arts, using swords, knives, bow and arrows, karate and mixed jiujitsu in. When she turned eighteen, she started going to gun ranges and practiced her shooting. Three months later, she was invited to an advanced class where they were taught how to use guns confrontationally. They were thrown through numerous drills which she excelled in. Turns out, it was just a front to recruit talented people into a secret government unit. When she was asked to join, she told them she would think about it. It has been half an year since and she had been preparing the heck out of herself if they decided to fuck with her.

Crrriiing!

She was brought out of her thinking by the ringing of the high school bell to signify end of the school day. Two minutes later, the teenagers flooded out of their building, running to their respective commitments. She saw her brother, a basketball player, tall as heck, walking out with his arm wrapped around a girl's waist. She became interested immediately. She honked as long as she could to gain his attention, not missing the panic blush that crept on his face when she saw him. He said a hasty goodbye to the girl and ran to her pickup truck.

"Soooo, who was that?" she started immediately.

"No one!" Tony growled. "Let's go."

"Sure, lover boy," she laughed, starting the engine and started off. "What's her name?"

"Nanya Business!" he curtly said.

"Well, I'm sure mom and dad would be interested to meet Nanya Business," Diana was enjoying teasing him. Tony was not having fun at all, he turned to his window and looked out, trying to tune her out but she was not one to give up. She continued to tease him till they reached home. He immediately got out of the car and ran to his room.

"What's with him?" their mother asked. Diana shrugged as she picked an apple.

"Teenagers and their hormones, you never know what is what," she chuckled. "How was your day?"

"I'm a housewife raising a tomboy girl and a giant teenage son. Most of my time is spent cooking you and cleaning the mess you made," she complained. It was true that she and her brother ate a lot, especially her, and the amount of dirty dishes they leave behind were staggering. But, their mother was one to refuse help in doing housework even if she complained that they never did enough. So, Diana could only watch her mother slaved in the kitchen.

"How was the shooting range?" Rose asked her daughter.

"Boring as usual. But I did improve on my reload. From three seconds to one point five with an assault rifle," she answered boringly.

"Isn't that like a world record?"

"It is but I don't wanna put more attention to myself than I already have. Anyway, how was your jog?"

"Completed five miles. Still can't believe you usually do twenty miles in an hour! It's like your body is made of a V8 engine," Rose scoffed. She was preparing chicken for dinner, which usually amazed Diana because she was multitasking quite efficiently.The two continued to talk till dinner was ready. Diana noticed her father had not arrived. She knew he does not miss dinner, ever! He would rather receive a speeding ticket than miss this family moment.

"Where's Dad?" she asked her mother.

"He told me he might be coming late tonight. They were told the ambulances might be receiving a lot of attention today and probably tomorrow even," Rose answered. "Tony, dinner!"

"Coming!" Tony shouted back. He quickly ran out of his room and downstairs. He knew his sister was a ravenous little beast, if he was a little late and she might enough of his portion for him to become quite hungry at night.

"Oh, wow, that's a fast response. Did you think your little girlfriend was here?" Diana teased. Tony glared at her murderously but their mother took over.

"Oh, you had a girlfriend? Who is she? Can she come over for dinner?" Rose fired her questions. Diana sat down, ready to hear his response.

"She's not my girlfriend, she's just a girl that I started seeing," Tony answered. Rose continued asking her questions while Diana served herself, using this moment of distraction to make sure she got the lion's share of the meal. By the time the two of them noticed, she had curved the chicken, took the left wing and entire breast, added five serving-spoons full of vegetables and had started eating.

It was midnight and Diana was down her midnight crunches. Due to her metabolism, she only needed three hours of sleep to be fully refreshed. She, she spent the hours doing all kinds of exercises to keep her body limber and fit. She suddenly heard someone scream outside the house, making her stop midway up and look at her window as he senses went to work.

She could hear most sounds upto five miles, smell upto ten miles and see a tin can fifteen miles! She heard screams of pain, snarling, gunshots, panicked running and more gunshots. It was all over the neighborhood making her become tense. She got up, quickly wearing her clothes since she was in her bikini and peeked outside her window.

What she saw was chaos. She saw a family of five drive their station wagon in panic, nearly driving into a man covered in blood. The man snarled ferociously at the car before he turned his attention to where the screams were coming from. She saw two people ripping apart a pregnant woman, feeding on her flesh like dogs on rabies. Someone fired a shotgun, making her look at the direction to see her neighbor having just shot his eight year old son!

"What the fuck's going on?" she asked herself. Another shot rang and a bullet nearly hit her head off if she hadn't ducked out of the way. She peeked at the direction it came from and saw a woman struggling with a growling man while holding an assault rifle with the muzzle was pointed to her direction.

"Shit, we need to get out of the open!" she realized and quickly ran to her door. She found her mother and brother already out of their rooms, looking pale in fear.

"W... What's going on?" Tony asked her. Due to her leisure activities, The two knew she was the strongest person in the house and thus the one to automatically go to when shit like this happen.

"To the basement, now!" she told them. The two quickly obeyed, leading the way to the basement when the front door was broken into splinters and a woman covered in blood rushed in. She let out an animatic roar before she lurched at them. Rose and Tony were paralyzed with fear but Diana was quick to act.

She took a cooking pot and hit her on the head. A resounding clang was heard followed by her head exploding into pieces followed by her body flying to the side.

"In the basement!" she yelled at the two, pushing them into the place in a panic. Once they were all in, she locked the door behind her, thanking God her father decided to make the door into a panic room after he drove a home invasion gunshot victim. He worked as an ambulance driver in the city's hospital.
