(Kyosei's View)

I am conflicted about this new freak. It looked like a Juggernaut but I can feel that this new freak is much tougher than the Juggernaut. I think the feeling of anxiety and nervousness since earlier is due to this monster.

"We need to finish refueling as soon as possible. We can't let the Hammerhead to reach us and do some rampage here. It will be a bloodbath if that happens," I said to everyone who is able to move.

Fortunately, the current truck is now full of gas. Only the last truck left to refuel.

"Kyosei, I suggest that we should just put the truck into half-tank full. If the new freak is coming so soon, we can't afford to keep the truck to refuel this long! We have limited people to take on the monster so we should retreat immediately as soon as the last truck is already loaded," Tamaki said.

Tamaki is right. If my assumptions are correct, the Hammerhead will arrive in this location in 5 minutes and it will cause a rampage. We can't afford to fight it with this arsenal. My weapons are also not going to last with that.

"Alright, if the half-tank can carry the truck until Tsutenkaku Tower then let's do that. We can't dawdle here anymore!" I ordered.

Kato quickly relayed the message to the person in charge of refueling the trucks. Now that everything is done, the remaining soldiers who are now ready to fight started to defend from the horde of undead that once again started to move after the time went past the 12:00 point.

The enemies just keep on coming and if there were no barricades stopping them from progressing further, we would have already been overwhelmed. 

"Sir! We are ready to go, sir! Our trucks are now ready to go!"

"Alright! Let's get out of here! Just leave the barricades for now! Those can stall a bit of time at least!" Kato said as everyone started to go inside the trucks while still aiming at the enemies

I also stayed behind, for now, to cover for everyone since my truck is the final one. Just as we are about to get everyone ready, a rumble occurred and the barricades flew in other directions, broken and smashed. I did not just stand there and watch, I held out my AR15 out and aimed. The Hammerhead arrived.

In close up inspection, I realized that the Hammerhead is much more menacing than viewed in the scope. The spikes that I am seeing before were actual spikes with pointy ends. If something or someone got pierced by that, it would definitely tear through the flesh of the person or the object that will get unfortunate to fell on those. I counted 5 spikes on its body and it won't look good if it uses those spikes for attacks and it is nasty if it is used for defense. Its head is the same on what I saw on the scope, it still looked like a sledgehammer but I can finally see its face. It didn't possess any eyes but it has menacing teeth, that look similar to saw blades.

The Hammerhead ignored us who are still on the ground and headed straight to the trucks which are not yet ready to go since there are is no driver.

"Get out of the truck now!" I shouted.

Before the soldiers on the truck can react, the Hammerhead jumped and landed on the truck's roof. The freak is so heavy that the truck did not even get to resist causing everyone inside the truck to get squashed along with the truck. Blood and innards splatter out of the truck before it exploded. 

"No!" Kato roared and grab a grenade from his waste before throwing it to the Hammerhead.

"Calm down, Kato. You can't beat that sh*t!"

However, Kato did not even listen, I covered Kato's back since the undead that managed to slip in due to the lack of barricade. The good thing is that most of them are just the weak undead and for some unknown reasons, they seemed to be lesser now that the Hammerhead appeared. Tamaki pulled several Molotov cocktails prepared before and throw them to the remaining undead, wiping them out and lessen the threat. With Tamaki and a few soldiers that are assigned now in the last truck, I can now go help the idiot Kato who just charged ahead without thinking.

Kato continues his attack on the Hammerhead using the AR15 but it is not even something that the Hammerhead felt. It disregarded Kato and continue to move straight to the trucks that have yet to run.

"What are you all waiting for?! Escape now and I will stall this big guy! It is clearly aiming at our trucks!

Hearing this, the first trucks started revving their engines and without hesitation, they drove off without even batting an eye to us. I don't know why but these soldiers seem to lack the courage to stay behind. I want to get angry about their decision but I can't either since they also wanted to survive. The only truck remaining in the area is the last truck that I am riding and the truck that the commander who died from the Puker earlier used.

We can already escape if we just distract the Hammerhead but Kato seems adamant about fighting it.

"Kato! Retreat dumbass! Don't challenge the freak, that is not something we can kill right now!" I shouted.

I don't know if Kato heard me or not but he still continues to release a barrage of bullets to the Hammerhead. Seeing this, I facepalmed and groaned. Are you this desperate in fighting this freak?!

"Tamaki, go secure the trucks with the remaining soldiers, don't let them fall victim on the Hammerhead without anything done."

"Alright." Tamaki nodded.

With one of the troublesome things that are now done, I had to bring Kato on the truck, force him to do it before the Hammerhead snap.

Kato continues shooting the Hammerhead when one of the bullets from the attack hit the Hammerhead's head, it stopped advancing and looked at Kato despite lacking the eyes. Before I can process what happened, the Hammerhead roared and crouched. One thing is certain, we need to escape here as soon as possible.
