Chapter 5 - Dead of Night

---10pm, Lights Out---

Turning off the lights around the interior, we left just a few critical lights on so we could move around without hassle. Getting settled into our position for the next two hours. Confirming with my mini map that everyone was asleep in the vault, I sighed with relief.

"Everything alright?", Saeko asked.

"Yeah...tomorrow is going to be crazy.", I replied.

"What do you mean?", Kyoko inquired gripping my arm.

"Not everyone in the group is happy with the vote.", I told her, "During the recon tomorrow, I wouldn't be surprised if a group of them split off."

"That would be a stupid idea.", Rei stated, "Why would they do that?"

"Simple, they are afraid and want the government to protect them, they want to show off for the women, and they think they know better.", I snickered, "Bunch of bloody idiots."

"I...I promise I don't want to go.", Kyoko said burying my arm between her breasts.

"I know, I do think the group is mainly made up of the boys from the clubs and a few of the preppy girls I have blown off.", I chuckled, "Takashi, Hisashi, and Kohta I don't think are a problem though, they will stick with us I am fairly sure."

"You mean those skanky girls that were pushing their breasts towards you?", Rei asked glaring back at the vault.

"Don't you worry about them.", I told her kissing her neck, "You know my opinion on those women. They aren't faithful, and will readily switch sides if it benefits them. I'd rather be tied to faithful women, the ones I can trust completely to do what needs done."

Giggling Rei kissed me back on the lips, and rested her head on my shoulder. Honestly it was better if they left, I had no room for dissidents in our group. Any chip in our armor would be exploited by hostile groups, and that was a problem. Knowing how crazy things would get, I knew cults and religious fanatics would start springing up out of the woodwork. These people would be unpredictable, and dangerous.

'Religious fanatics will literally do anything the leader says without question. Mindless slaves that do the whims of their leader...people like those leaders are going to have a power trip and will cause in fighting among survivor groups.', I thought holding Saeko's hand with my only free hand, 'Our group needs to be like a well oiled machine, and we need heavy firepower before we hit Phase 2. Going to Tokyo is going to be something we need to do, but going with our current numbers and gear is suicide. Not enough fighters to fight the hordes there.'

Feeling Kyoko shoved my hand into her crotch, she looked at me with a worried look.

"I...I...owe you for saving me.", she said softly, "I am inexperienced, but...I can service you...if you want."

"Calm down, it isn't a requirement that you have to sleep with me. It never will be either, I am not an animal.", I replied.

"I am not saying it was.", she said pulling her bra down, "I almost died today...if you hadn't showed up when you did...I wouldn't be here. Please...I want to express my gratitude. You are a young man, and...I am sure you need to vent. I...I will do whatever you want me too."

Moving into position to give me a boob job, she nervously undid my belt and pants. Pulling my pants and underwear down, she got smacked in the face by my shaft.

"You...you are well endowed...must be because you are a foreigner.", she gulped as she wrapped her breasts around it.

Seeing a portion protruding between her breasts, she started to lick and kiss it. Sighing when she eventually swallowed it, she slowly started to move. Looking at me as she picked up the pace, she seemed to really enjoy this.

"You taste...delicious.", she muttered.

A side effect from being a High Human male...human women became addicted to me after having a taste. I didn't realize it until Rei pestered me about getting more after our first night. It was then I knew I had a special gift, but I still wanted initial consent before doing it the first time. Since that one night, I had slept with her almost weekly, never once with protection...it feels better in my opinion. For that matter, I didn't use protection with any of my partners. They enjoyed getting stuffed, and I was happy to help, they were on the pill though so I wasn't that concerned about it.

"You are doing good.", I told brushing her cheek, "Do you want it in your mouth or all over you?"

Nodding her, I took that as swallow it so I went for it. Starting to thrust, her eyes widened as my shaft went into her throat. When I would thrust in, her eyes would roll back into her head as she started choking. Her sexy expression changed my plans though. Pulling out of her mouth, I laid her back and pulled her skirt down. Pushing her soaked panties to the side, I put my tip in and stopped.

"What...are you...doing?", she panted with frustration.

"I want you to say the magic words.", I teased her, "Say it, or one of them can take you place."

"Wait!", she said acting shy, "Please...make me a...woman."

"Not what I was thinking, but that works too.", I chuckled pushing right through to her womb.

I had to say, sex with these Japanese women was quite enjoyable. I had slept with others but I never got this deep with them. Honestly...I think it's part of the reason they like me so much. Clinging to my dick like her life depended on it, I could barely move without hurting her.

"Such a naughty woman, did you need it that badly?", I teased her.

"Don't...leave me...", she whimpered holding me as she shivered like a scared child, "I will be your toy, and I-"

"I won't abandon you, I don't turn my back on my partners.", I stated glancing at Rei and Saeko, "You are my woman now, and I will protect you."

Taking her to a different room so she could be a bit louder. Pushing her against the wall, she looked at me as my sac clapped up against her. Wrapping herself around me, she kissed me passionately as she grew accustom to me.

"I getting close, do you need me to pull out?", I asked her.

"No...I...I am your woman. Give me your stuff.", she said wrapping her around my neck, "It's a safe day."

"Alright then.", I said softly as I climaxed.

Gasping and digging her nails into my back, she climaxed hard. Losing all strength in her body, she collapsed though I supported her before she fell to the floor. Getting her cleaned up, I made her comfortable and took a seat again.

"Uh huh...had to wait till later.", Rei teased, "I am next, right?"

Sighing I pulled her close to me again and took Saeko's hand again. None of the people in the vault had heard us so we were in the clear there. As for the situation outside, it appeared we had a horde of a few hundred going by outside the bank. We weren't generating any noise so they had no idea that we were here. The survivors across the street in the high rise apartments were also not in any danger, but there was a group of people coming in our direction. Judging by how fast they were moving, they were definitely in cars.

A few minutes later, we heard the sound of car engines coming in our direction. Looking to me for guidance, I suggested we use the security cameras to take a peek outside safely. Walking over to the camera monitor, I took control of the PTZ camera in the front of the building. We may not have audio, but a live feed was fine.

Coming to a stop near the horde, a group of people got out of the SUV's and started executing the zombies with some sort of sound weapon. Using my HUD to check it, it appeared to be a tone generator that overwhelmed the zombies mind's and killed them.

'Interesting, they have different methods for killing the zombies.', I thought, 'If I get my hands on one, I might be able to re-engineer it.'

Realizing that they were from Umbrella Corp, I was glad we had cut the power to the network equipment. These guys had a hand in many things, and I was sure they had a method for accessing the cameras in the area.

"What is Umbrella Corp doing?", Rei asked me.

"It looks like a clean up crew.", Saeko stated.

"Agreed...it's strange that they just happened to have equipment like this on hand.", I pointed out, "It specifically hurts the zombies, and not humans."

Watching them unload a device from the back of a SUV, they set it on the ground and stepped back. Realizing it was a device meant to detect heat signatures through walls, I pulled the three of them to the ground behind a round of desks.

"What are you doing?", Kyoko asked.

"I have seen that before...they used it overseas during wartime to locate insurgents in buildings.", I lied, "I don't want anyone to know we are here. The people in the vault should be fine as they have super thick walls."

"Shouldn't we want to them to find us?", Rei inquired.

"I have my suspicion that they had a hand in this mess.", I told her.

Detecting the people in the apartment building, we watched them strapped explosives to the building. Realizing they were going to take that whole building down, I told the women to get in the vault. Rushing inside, I pulled the door shut behind us and locking it.

"Is something wrong?", Saya asked with a yawn as she woke up.

"Get ready for a loud explosion, and a small earthquake.", I told her.

Not more than thirty seconds after that, a loud boom rang out and the entire building shook violently waking everyone up. Pulling the bus into my storage I didn't want them to destroy our transportation. Hearing people hammering on the front walls of the bank I quickly disabled the cameras in the vault to rob them of their ability to see us.

"What was that!?", Hisashi shouted.

"Umbrella just blew the neighboring building to pieces, and they are trying to get in here.", I told him, "Everyone needs to stay absolutely quiet, not a single peep!"

Nodding their heads, we sat there in silence as the troops eventually made an entrance through the rooftop access. Hearing them march around in the lobby, I assumed they were here to destroy any evidence of their actions. Their thoroughness was startling as I watched them go into the server room and completely destroy everything on my mini map. Once the equipment was destroyed, they left without any further investigation.

"What was that all about!?", Saya whispered with a worried look.

"Umbrella was out there wiping out zombies. I think the neighbors saw too much, and they were killed for it.", I told her watching the group retreat, 'Why didn't they check the vault...that doesn't make me feel good.'

Opening the vault door, we peered out and found they had turned the place upside down. Making the assumption they didn't check the vault because they couldn't find a code, I was relieved that the Bank Manager didn't leave information like that anywhere. Visually confirming the damage, we no longer had functioning cameras which made this less comfortable for me. Looking at what I had to work with, I told Saya to get me my soldering iron.

"You aren't going to try to fix anything in here, right?", Takashi asked, "This stuff is toasted."

"I am going to try to get us functional cameras for the exterior as we have no way to see out. It was thanks to the window coverings that Saeko, Rei, Kyoko, and I weren't seen right off the bat.", I told him.

"Seems like a waste of time.", Takashi said.

"Do you want to volunteer to step out first tomorrow morning?", I inquired, "We don't have a way off the roof safely so we are stuck using one of the doors. I'd like to know what I am walking into in the morning."

"Lay off Takashi.", Rei lectured him, "It doesn't hurt to try, and it isn't like it could get any worse."

"I mean...yeah I guess.", he sighed, "I am going back to bed."

Handing me my soldering kit a few moments later, I got to work repairing the camera system...well enough to allow the cameras to function. Fortunately they didn't physically destroy those so we were able to view things about thirty minutes later. When we did get the camera's back up, we saw that the apartment complex next door was completely rubble now. Putting the bus back where it was before the system toggled to that camera, the four women sighed with relief seeing that the bus was unscathed.

"I can't believe they would do something like that...", Saya said, "They killed those people in cold blood, just cover up their zombie killing."

"Now I am sure they had something to do with outbreak.", I stated with a nod, "Having the equipment to easily kill them on hand, wiping up anyone that saw them, and then destroying footage of the event...this screams cover up."

"They are one of the world's largest corporation, and have hands in almost every government...", Saeko added, "If they are involved...this is way worse than we expected."

"We are going to have to move tomorrow.", I said, "This place is too hot, I don't want them watching over us like hawks. Right now we have the fact we are just a group of high school students, and a few adults going for us. That is probably the reason they didn't bother breaking into the vault to eliminate us."

"I don't like having a target on my back.", Saya sighed.

"I will make sure any attacker dies before he lines you up.", I promised kissing her cheek, "Do you want to stay out here?"

"...do you mind? I mean, if it's a pain I don't mind going back in the-"

"Come here you stubborn woman.", I snickered pulling her into my lap.

Covering her with a blanket, she got comfortable and started to go back to sleep.

"You smell like sex...I can't believe you fucked someone when you were on watch.", she teased with a playful smile.

"Jeez, you have a sharp nose.", I chuckled, "I admit I did, I won't lie about it."

Falling asleep on my chest, the other three women passed out not long after. My physiology as a High Human made staying up for extend periods of time not an issue for me. Since someone needed to stay up for night watch, I decided to simply monitor my mini map for now. The loud explosion would draw lots of undead here, and I wanted to see how many would show up. Besides our group, the other two groups in the area had made it away unscathed.

'Still though...they killed nearly thirty people in that collapse.', I thought gritting my teeth, 'We need to get better equipment quick. The only thing I have that could have penetrated their armor is my .50 Beowulf AR that I have in my storage.'

Bullets that big were extremely limited, but I could buy a skill to allow me to make ammo. The problem was the skill wasn't cheap...each one of these zombies gave me 2 points each for my system at this point. Todays haul left me with just shy of a thousand points, that included what I had accrued before this happened. The skill was called Daily Double, and it would double a select item in my inventory once per day. It sounded OP, because it was, but the cost was 2,500pts for it. The skill could be upgraded to allow up to ten items to double a day.

'I am happy I requested this Skill Shop, but fuck...I wish the prices were better...', I thought.

Popping up on my HUD, a notification appeared about my complaint.

"Prices are determined by the number of followers you have, and the influence you hold.", the message read, "The more followers and influence you hold, the cheaper things will become and the more skills will appear."

'So that's why the Skill Shop is so bare.', I thought as I chuckled softly, 'Basically I need to acquire more people to follow me, and my skill choices will increase. It kind of makes sense...with things guaranteed to be much worse going forward I would ultimately need to get more people or fly solo. It's setup to encourage me to become a leader...interesting.'

Watching the mini map for the rest of the night, we ended up having a group of several dozen zombies show up but they moved on by dawn. Waking up a little bit after sunrise, Saya realized where she was and looked at me with shock.

"You didn't wake me up for my-"

"Don't worry about it.", I said kissing her forehead, "I didn't want to wake you up. You looked very cute nuzzling my chest, I didn't have the heart to wake you."

"...Thanks...", she said shyly.

Waking the others up, I visually checked the cameras so people could see me doing it. If I just walked out without looking, it would be suspicious so I had to do it. Confirming the coast was clear, we had breakfast and got ready to go.
