Chapter-18<*Separation*>

The first group was with maximum tension. They only needed a few blocks to reach their destination but a large group of zombies was blocking their way.

"We'll do this, I'm going to go ahead so I can secure the advance route while you guys clean up the place"-said the blonde as he looked at the boys, then looked at Saeko-"Ready?"

"Always ready"-the purple-haired girl nodded as a wild smile appeared on her face.

"So... it's time to freak out"-said the blonde as he accelerated with his motorcycle.

"I love how that sounds"- Saeko replied as she hit all the zombies that were near her.

"Let's go"- Saya said as Shizuka nodded.

"Any change in the area?" asked a person with the body covered by a containment suit, although from her voice you could tell that she was a woman.

"The concentration of zombies in the surroundings is increasing with the passing of the hours" - answered a man with a serious voice.

"Hmm... maybe it's because of Souichiro's increased activity in the area?" the woman wondered as she shook her head, "I'd better leave this for another time..."

"Yuriko-sama! We have detected the strange movements of those things!" - exclaimed another soldier - "It seems that they detected a prey!"

"Place?" - Asked the woman identified as Yuriko.

"Two blocks from this place in the direction of zone C" - the man. he said

"Hmm… that means they are survivors who come to seek asylum…" Yuriko muttered as she shook her head, "Come on, we'll go give them a hand"

"Hai!" the man yelled as he gathered the others. If those were his teacher's wishes, then they would fulfill them, after all, they owed the woman too much.

"Cloud-kun! Look ahead!" Saeko exclaimed as she pointed a few meters ahead.

"Shit! How did I forget that?!" -exclaimed the blond while his pupils contradicted- "Tell them that there is a barricade of spikes a few meters ahead! We have to move in another direction!"

"But we can not!" - exclaimed Saeko - "I was attentive to the surroundings while changing routes but all the streets we passed were full of zombies! If we go back, then we'll just be cornered by those things!"

"Tch!" - Cloud just clucked his tongue in disapproval

but still he continued to advance.

"You plan to do?" Saeko asked in surprise.

"Simple, I'll go full speed and I'll take that block with me" - the blonde said firmly - "When we are a few meters away, I want you to jump off the bike because this will be dangerous"

"..."-Saeko was silent for a few seconds but still she nodded "Ok... be careful"

"Don't worry, I'm tougher than I look"-the blonde smiled as he started to speed up.

"What is that idiot thinking?!" Saya exclaimed upon seeing the blonde's actions but even more so when he saw how Saeko jumped off the bike.

"Look!" - Rei exclaimed when she saw how the blonde took with him a strip of barbed wire.

"If we ran over that thing..." Takashi muttered as the others visualized the possible scenario.

"Let's put that aside for now, for now let's get Saeko-san up" - Miku said as the others nodded.

"What about Cloud-kun?" Kyoko asked with concern.

"I wouldn't worry about him" - Kohta said calmly - "Cloud-san doesn't seem like the kind of person who would do something stupid without measure the consequences

"A ride?" Saeko asked as the car passed her.

"Just get on, joker" - Saya just rolled her eyes at the girl who just smiled in response.

*Bang!*

"Cloud!" - Miku exclaimed upon hearing the sound of an explosion.

"Don't worry, I'm sure he jumped before something happened" Saeko said as she tried to calm the girl down.

"The problem now is that we will be attracting a number of those things"-murmured Takashi while the others understood his situation.

"Ok, this will be troublesome"-Saya said as she took the bridge of the nose.

"If you have time to talk about those things, use it better to get us out of here" - said the newcomer Cloud.

"Let's just move on"-Saya sighed as she watched the boy get into the Humby.

"Hai-Hai-!" The nonchalant Shizuka replied as she made the vehicle move forward again.

---

"Did you hear that?" asked an armed man.

"I guess they ran into one of our roadblocks"-Yuriko said as she shook her head.

"Then we better hurry up, Yuriko-sama" - he said another man.

"Going" - agreed the aforementioned as they increased the speed of their vehicles.

---

"I think we shouldn't have taken that curve" - ​​Saya said while she looked how they had been trapped alone.

"Let's do this quickly" - Cloud said as he got out of the Humby - "Saeko and I will take care of 'entertaining' those things while Kohta-san gives us support, you will try to move that barricade or at least go over it from the roof of the Humby. Humby"

"Don't you think that's too dangerous?" Miku asked with a frown. Honestly, she felt useless but she couldn't do anything to stop it, after all, she didn't have the confidence or the techniques to deal with such things.

"I don't plan on dying so young"-Cloud said as he shrugged-"Like I said, we'll just do some time while you guys get over the barricade"

"ROAR!" - the sound of the roars of the zombies grew closer as the survivors looked at each other.

"Don't waste any more time, the longer you delay, the longer we'll be entertaining those things" - Cloud said seriously as he looked at the boys, then looked at the nurse - "Shizuka-chan, I want you to approach carefully to that barricade and position yourself in such a way that they can jump it from the roof"

"Ok" - nodded the blonde nurse seriously.

"Come on, Saeko-san" - Cloud only gave the girl a determined look, who only nodded firmly.

"His backs are safe with me"-Kohta said as he took out his assault rifle-"But we better leave this for another time because our guests have already arrived"

"Going!" The blonde exclaimed as he took the sword from her and started making noise with it.

"This will be fun," Saeko smiled as she walked beside her, "How about we have a little competition?"

"What do you have in mind?" The blond asked calmly, after all, the zombies weren't that close to them yet.

"Whoever kills more of those things, he can ask the other for what he wants"-the purple-haired girl smiled seductively. Cloud could even see how she licked her lips - "Whatever?"

"Whatever" Saeko nodded as she gave him one last look before concentrating completely on the zombies.

"I don't have a problem with it, although I feel like I have too big an advantage"-said the blonde as he looked at his gun and then at the girl's.

"Then you give me an advantage of 10" - smiled the Kendo champion.

"I have no problem with that" - nodded the boy - "It's time for the party to start"

"ROAR!" The zombies roared as they charged at the duo, though they still had that nonchalant look on their faces.

"First kill is worth x5"-Saeko said as she ran against the zombies.

Cloud just smiled as he ran even faster.

Saeko was surprised at this, even more so when she saw that he was now a few meters ahead of her. She knew he was strong and fast but she never thought he would be that fast.

"Those 10 points became 5"-Cloud said as he split one of the zombies vertically in half. The mastery he had, as well as his strength, made this extremely easy for him.

"Let's see how long you have that condescending smile"-Saeko murmured as she began to dance on the battlefield. The girls were moving from one side to the other while he effectively hit the heads of the zombies.

"Heh"-Cloud just smiled as he continued his slaughter.

Kohta was silent as he waited for the situation to turn for the worse to support him, although he wasn't still, he was also killing zombies, although he did this with the ones that were further away.

"Hurry up!" Saya exclaimed as she glanced around the battlefield. She was impressed by the level of skill the two swordsmen had.

"Just a little more!" Kaede exclaimed as he climbed onto the barricade.

"Jump Okaasan!" - Takashi yelled - "I got you!"

"Okay!" His mother agreed as she dropped down.

"Only you two are missing, Saya, Kohta-san!" Rei said as she watched as Kaede fell on her son.

"I'm going!" Saya exclaimed but her expression turned pale when she saw how the zombies were getting closer to her location- "Shit!"

"..."-Kohta just watched in silence as the zombies ignored the two swordsmen and walked in his direction because of all the noise they had made.

"I think it's time for plan B" - said Cloud noticing the same situation.

"And that would be it?" Saeko asked as she gave him a look.

"To be the decoys"-replied the blond as he ran towards the stairs. Saeko followed close behind as he made as much noise as possible.

"What are they doing?!" Saya exclaimed in surprise.

"You're acting as a decoy"-Kohta sighed as he helped his groupmate up-"Let's do this quickly or else their efforts will be in vain"

Saya just bit her lip but still she nodded. She quickly gave the boy her hand to help her because it was obvious that with her physique, it would be difficult for him.

"Thank you"-Kohta said as he nodded.

"We'll meet at the Takagi mansion!" Cloud yelled loudly.

The zombies only glanced in his direction as they walked slowly.

Saya just nodded as she bit her lip. Right now, she was the only thing she could do as she watched as the duo fled the scene with a group of zombies behind her...
