TWO

Princess Shura is preparing for the battle of the Zombies and the humans. She brought her sword and anything that might be needed for the battle. She brought some bottles of water just in case and few foods.She also brought the sword of her brother.

The Princess and the prince were taught self defense and also swordmanship.

"God, Please keep my brother safe. He is just 10. I hope he's alive." Shura prayed for her brother while putting everything inside the bag.

"I got what I need. I hope we will survive this." Shura whispered to herself as she checked her bag and prayed again.

She is preparing to leave when someone grabbed her bag from her.

"Let me handle this for you, Princess." Hades smiled at her.

"Hades? " Shura hugged him. "Where is father?" shura asked after giving him a hug.

"The king escaped with his guards. We must protect the king." Hades said.

"Oh, I hope my father is safe right now. Thank you for being here, Hades."  Shura said.

" It is my obligation to protect you." Hades said

Outside the Castle, they are fighting with the zombies. They used their swords or any weapon against zombies and they're slicing them into two pieces.

"Argh! Get out of my way, you filthy body-suckers! " Shura was flashed with blood in her dress after slicing zombies who attacked her."Yuck!" She said with an 'eww' expression.

"My lady, we must hide! We can't take them out! They are too many." Hades started slicing, kicking, punching, smashing zombies who got near him.

"But how? We are sorrounded. Argh! Stop touching me, you stupid zombies!" Shura kicked the zombie who grabbed her arm.

Hades looked around and saw a man who is waving his hands to them.

"Over here! Come over here! Here!"  An old man said while waving at them.

"Finally." Hades started to come closer to where Shura while killing zombies.

"Get away!" Shura is shooing the zombies away from her.

They can still hear the screams of the people and their cries. They can see people lying on the ground while eating by zombies. All Princess Shura could do is saying sorry to the dead people. HER people.

"I'm so sorry." Princess Shura whispered.

"Come on, Princess." Hades grabbed her on her waist and put her on his shoulder and started to run.

"Hey, What are you doing? We still need to find my brother." Shura started to move to get away.

Hades didn't bother answering and ran toward the safe place where the old man was.

When they reached the safe place, the man immediately closed the door and blocked it with a many sacks of rice to close the door. They can hear the zombies groaning, and banging the door. They were in a barn made by strong woods and there's no window but a door only.

"You know that my little brother is out there and waiting. Hades, I can't just leave him. He needs me right now ." Shura wanted to cry but she's trying not to.

" But we can't assure if he is still there---ALIVE. You can't just risk your life out there." Hades is trying to calm is princess and let her sit down to take a rest.

Shura didn't argue.

"You must take a rest, My lady" Hades

"NO! I can't! I must find him. Maybe he is here" Shura stood and start searching.

"Mylady." Hades sighed defeatedly and followed her.

While they were sarching, Shura hoped that her little brother is safe and sound.

"Shiro, I hope you are here and safe." Shura hoped.

They kept searching until they saw Shiro sitting on the corner while bending his knee while his hands are inside to it and he looked scared and crying quitely.

"Shiro! Thank god, you're safe." Shura rushed to her little brother and hugged him tightly.

"Sis---ter ---Shu---ra." Shiro cried loudly and hugged her back.

"Don't worry, I am here now. I will never gonna leave you. Don't cry." Shura cuddled her little brother.

"I am scared sister. I thought I will never gonna see you again. huhu. I am so sorry I sneaked out. I just want to play outside and then everyone ran and I don't know what to do while I was running, I saw my friend----he was eaten by her mother . I feel sorry for him. I don't understand. Her mother was so kind earlier how did that happened?" Shiro explained while wiping his tears.

"I also do not understand why our people became like that. You should stop crying. I want you to be brave. It's time for you to use what you learned in fighting.You should not be scared." Shura kissed his forehead.

" I am scared but I will be brave." Shiro is still hugging his sister.
