The Nagako sisters finally made to Friendo's as their father had instructed. The girls are all tired wet due to the small rain that occurred one hour ago. A look in their eyes, Misaki clearly sees they were terrified but slowly calm down once they finally got here safely.

Misaki worrying ran from the stairs to help them.

"What happened to you two!!?"

Elder sister Minamoto pant "I'm okay, it's a long story, where is Yamamoto?"

"Right here" Yamamoto politely said while slowly down to the Stairs.

Yamamoto and Shintani the drugs store owner knew each other for a long; he told Shintani if there is any trouble, he can help him out. Misaki known them as well, she's at the same age as the Big Sister Minamoto they're also good friends, they both Adore and care for her little sister, Miyoshi.

Yamamoto invited them to his room offers them to stay, Misaki tried to speak with Miyoshi to lighten her up, but she unwillingly talk to her. That made Misaki both sad and worried.

Yamamoto commands "OK, Misaki-Chan you handle the restaurant until Shinsuke-kun gets here then you can go home"

But Misaki wanted to stay the night and talk more to the Nagako sisters but before she was able to anything they left to Yamamoto's room.

At the end of Yellow zone, Akagi walks a straight line to the tube line tunnel with a torch in hand. "Why I have to do this, I'm going to be late for everything, my plan that I created not going to work. But I'm still curious about how Walkers looks like I never seen one before, except in TV nor the Internet"

Akagi quickly shakes his head and thinks "No I can't lose track right now; I have to finish the work as soon as I can. I've exams tomorrow in no way I'm going to miss that".

It is a ghost subway that Akagi is walking, no sign of life as he went farther into the tunnel, dead and rusted tube lines going straight to nowhere, the upper wall happens to fall down any minute, dark surrounds slowly as he went deeper. The dark becoming darker the torchlight provides only little light since Akagi turned his torch on the ground,.

When he looked with his torch forward, he saw only darkness as the light slowly eaten by darkness. Akagi knows the subway lines of Tokyo is massive, anybody can easily get lost in one of ghost stations and eaten by Walkers if they encounter, those creatures happened to be roaming around the stations looking for food, for this reason he's slowly moving forward keep track of where he was entered. Then suddenly heard some noise from left side of the tunnel wall few meters away, it's like Someone crying from the dark, Akagi well aware it is a ghost subway lines, no one suppose to be here soon, he slowly moves forward to the wall he can hear much clearer than before *Cham Cham Cham* The noise became like chewing, But He slowly approaching the coming noise but he some distance away from it, when the light hits the place. From the moment he realized it wasn't the wall, it's one of station. Akagi is terrified when he looked at the chewing noise; it's a dozens of Walkers eating one of their Walker.

One walker puts his whole head into dead walker's abdomen, eating and disembowelling it. That walker clearly large and dominate then the rest of them, the others chewing its legs and hands.

The Walkers came in a variety of forms, yet all shared one characteristic; their signature blade, a very blunt, incomplete and undeveloped version of Mutant's Noryoku Blade, This weapon was capable of piercing human body, yet failed to do anything more than to Mutants, when they in greater numbers, they capable to infect major damage to Mutants and they bitten, tear and eaten weak Mutants whose unable to control their Noryoku for defend themselves.

Akagi saw all three kinds of Walkers. Males were larger than their female counterparts, with their largest variation being a dark skinned, bloated body. This Walker type was common and presumably belonged to a big or muscular men prior to infection. Its head was tilted at an inhuman angle due to a growth on its neck. The small male wore a tattered casual dress shirt and a pair of ripped dress pants, and appeared to have no skin on its body which gave it a reddish hue; distinguishable from crowds of infected, female's facial features were lost in its mass of deformed flesh, and only a few tufts of hair remained on the cranium.

He even saw police and military walkers both wore their respective uniforms, even though the outfits were in pieces. They behaved like the rest of the walkers. Once the lights hit on them Akagi steps back even more ready to run to the exit, they turns their head around the light and starts screaming,

"ERRRRRRRRRR"

And randomly runs to attack him. Akagi was terrorized to saw that, he wasn't expect to see horrifying brainless zombies, he runs with all might.

Walkers are very aggressive, they attacks and tries to eat their flesh every non-infected they found, including soldiers, Mutants and Even themselves once their death their relatively high damage resistance being able to withstand more than two dozens of firearms bullets from Brittonia.

Akagi running with his life in the line "Heeeeey!!!" he waves his right hand firstly "They're coming! Be ready to close it once I get out"

Yuji signals him with two tiny flashes. After seeing those tiny lights, he finally realized that how much he went deep, the walkers beginning to close to get him. Suddenly red stings appeared to his two legs, soon he gain speeds, the ground crashed once Akagi stepped on them,

Akagi exclaimed, raising the both hand "Wahoo, it's like I'm in the air, the speed is awesome!!" he turned his head backwards and sees far behind Walkers, "Ha-ha!".

When he was human he's always suck in sports and any physical activity but now he achieved the power of a Mutant his speed is 5 times faster than before but soon he way more faster, he's not able to slow down, he exists the tunnel and trips with fall on his face more far away from the entrance. Yuji Activate the Zattai Barrier. A light green smooth surface has manifested on the entrance the device clips sat on the entrance,

*Dam Dam Dam*

couples of Walkers hit on the barrier, most of them stop running and stand in front them.

Akagi walks towards the barrier. He and Yuji both gaze at the Walkers as they glare at them, a barrier between the Walkers and them.

Yuji sees the surprise look at Akagi's face "Take a long look at them, Shinsuke"

Akagi gaze at the Walkers.

"I was expecting to see some real Zombies but I didn't expect to be that terrifying, most of the their faces are completely melt away."

"They're not zombies, actually"

Yuji speaks again

"Just a Infected citizens, well, more or less were ordinary people who have been infected by the Darkfallen virus, not like you, they have been undergone minor mutations, becoming cannibalistic walking corpses virtually devoid of intelligence and driven completely by their base instinct to feed on normal humans or sometimes weak mutants and procreate the virus by infecting other non-infected. If a non-infected person is bitten or scratched by an infected person or a Vector, the virus can spread directly to the victim resulting in their infection. So do you understand what a Walker is? Keep in mind Shinsuke, your genes that saved you becoming one of them"

He clenched his hand tightly but still maintained his calm demeanour,

"Brittonia Empire is not interested on the matter, they don't give a shit about us, neither about their citizens, they even don't bother to shut the entrance of the subway line that spread all over Tokyo, only possible transportation is Brittonia's operating dropships, shuttlecraft and naval ships, or the their new prototype like Hoverbikes or Mecha, though some smuggler found many ways get into the Imperium States.

Before the Outbreak the city suffered from very large population, the city were considered most populated city in the world. That's because there are so many Walkers roaming most of the part. Now it's now our duty to prevent the walkers get into the Yellow zone, infecting other people... Ahh, Waste of words, let's go"

Yuji walks to the car. All the things that he heard, he looked down on the ground thinking "Oh. I see they protect the zone, so they can live peacefully without placed under Military's scrutinized". He closes his eyes and smiles "They are good and kind people, well some of them at least" *Peppppp* Yuji horns his car to notify him. Akagi see his already in the car, he makes a run for the car. He and Yuji go back to the restaurant.

...

It is midnight, the roads usually deserted during the night of yellow zone, Yuji drops from the corner of the Restaurant and drive away without saying anything since their last conversation, Akagi making his way to the Friendo's Bar, making an assumption about Yuji's personality "Man, that Yuji is a tight lipped a serious decisive and extremely silent individual, though he is easily annoyed and is rather temperamental, often to a fault. He is greatly annoyed by immaturity, blah... Just forget it, the main thing is, it's the job taken much time than I expected, if the owner not going to my shift then I going to fail" he quickly scratches his head "Aragh, What shall I do?".

When he opens the bar's front door,

"You're late four eyes; do you know what time it is?" Masaki croaks while holding her both hands on her waist standing in front of entrance,

Akagi was totally surprised from the sudden approached "Quit nagging me, I was doing your work that you supposed to do and don't come out from the blue like that, it's annoying"

Misaki dazed for a moment then takes a look at Shinsuke's tired body for a moment,

"Hmm, Well, I did know that" She holds her hand close to her mouth avoids eye contact "Well anyway, You can go home."

"But it's my shift now, the owner told me to finish my shift then go and" he looks at the tables "Looks like some people inside."

Misaki scratches her head looking away from Akagi's face,

"Yeah, I'll take your shift this time, for taking the job with Yuji-san and don't worry about it, I'll mark you as present at attended board and just for the night no-one will ever know."

"Are you sure?!"

Misaki hoarse at Akagi for getting the point,

"Yeah, are you deaf? I'll do your shift for the night for my own personal reasons."

After he hears about it, he completely exclaimed and grabs her one hand and placed it with his both hand upper and lower showing gratitude,

"Thank you Mayumi-san for taking my shift, for that you're my time calculations are now completed" He shakes her hand up and down.

She completely exclaims to saw the holding hands, while blush she lightly slaps him from her left hand on to his cheek.

Akagi felt little or no pain from her slaps "Ouch! What's that for?" he rubbing his cheek

Misaki a steps little back "You idiot!, whose said you can touch me, you moron" still blushing face she points on the door "Just get out before the Owner shows up".

Akagi smiles with a wade and easy grins "All right then I be going" he opens the door went outside "See ya" waves his hands to her.

"What with this guy? "Misaki mumbled, sigh in relief, that's because she never experienced sudden little joy and excitement that Humans most of the time do. She down her head and genuinely chuckles after that she gone for work.

Akagi went back home and studied whole night about the subjects. He mostly covered the chapters but because lack of time, anyhow he arrived at examination hall just in time. Test has begun, he's writing into the paper suddenly *Fup* something sticky landed on his neck.

"Huh?" Akagi widened his eyebrows his eyes check his neck to found out what it is. Rolled saliva filled piece of paper, thrown at Akagi, he turned his backwards to see, there is one person who can do something like that, Akagi realized from the start who might be, Sudo, average height, average weight, brown spiky hair and brown eyes. Sudo is a good for nothing student, who likes to bully people are quiet and reserved, his father is a well influential noble man, it's the only reason he's in the institution.

From his father's reputation many teenagers and young men eager to be his lackeys, after he thrown the paper, he's looking away and smiling at him.

Knowing all that Akagi keeps quiet and focusing on his papers. The examination had finished, Akagi went outside to meet his instructor for knowing any future exams. Akagi Shinsuke is always an Ace student, for his genius levels of intelligence many instructors and teachers praised him for that, they said he's becoming more like his father once was. After getting the answer Akagi returned to his class to pick his bag, when he entered the class, it's almost empty most of the students gone home, when he reached his sit, he found out that he bag is missing.

"My bag? It's gone, where it is..."

Akagi becomes anxious from that moment he looked everywhere for his bag, after a long searched he finally found his bag on a garbage box outside the building. Akagi picks his bag and sees his bag's stripes had been tied into multiples knots, unable to neither open the bag nor put the bag on to his shoulder. Akagi suddenly hears laughter from upside he looked up and saw Sudo and couple of his lackeys laughing on the second floor of the College.

Sudo intentionally taunting Akagi "It's too bad Shinsuke, I'm wounding you could to do such a thing let me think" he puts his hand on to his forehead "Oh! Whose gives a fuck, you're such a pussy, what are you going to do about that? HAHAHAHA" he laughed loudly with his friends.

Akagi boiled in rage he thought with anger "You Fucking idiot, don't you anything better to do". He looked into the ground clenched his hand tightly glowering them "Have I not troubled yet? That you people acting so childish" he slowly calms down and looks at Sudo's expensive bike standing at the parking lot,

"I'm not weak like before, I've power that teach you bastard a lesson" he starts to walks toward the bike with bag on to his hand .

"What are you doing to do? Why come closer to my bike? "Sudo anxious rants from the second floor.

Akagi holds the bike's tiers and blast them with his bare hands, kicks the bike on the ground and ran away while laughing.

Sudo explodes in anger "Shinsuke come back HERE, you fucking nerdy bastard, YOU'LL PAY FOR THAT!! "

...

Few days has passed Akagi is fully recovered from tiredness and goes back to his work as usual. While working he looks at the list and realize that they're run off supplies,

He takes the list to the owner about it, "Owner, its look we're ran off supplies, we need refill as soon as possible"

Yamamoto takes the list and looking at it "Hmm, it's lot staff I don't think you can manage it on your own Shinsuke-kun" he goes at the kitchen's door and stops "Come with me Shinsuke-kun"

Akagi nods and followed him, when he entered the he sees Misaki cleaning the platform,

Yamamoto calls Misaki

"Um. Misaki-Chan"

she looked at Yamamoto and Akagi standing in the entry

"Would come here for a minute" she comes close "Would you and Shinsuke-kun go to the supermarket to buy supplies?"

Misaki slacked jaws "Huhhhh!!!? I just finished my work, and you telling me that I go shopping... With this guy?"

She crossed her arms over her chest, grumbling like a typical tsundere,

Akagi tighten his lips and thinks for resentment,

"Did I Look like I'm dancing with pleasure, going out with a immature brat like you, I don't need your help, I'll just fine on my way."

"Misaki-Chan. Do you forget about I said few days ago, about the Spotters, be sure going with him"

Yamamoto spoke with concern, convincing Misaki to go with him,

Misaki understands the situation, then glared at Akagi,

"Four eyes, you better be at 2pm in front of Owikata Flower park, if you late I'll break you leg and make Drum sticks with your bone. "

"Should I be worried or laughed, I couldn't say?"

Akagi thought annoyed by Misaki's strange words.

.....

Akagi arrived in the Flower park exact 2pm, as casual clothing he usually wears a plain grey hoodie, and a black leather jacket with a dark red interior, and plain blue jeans, brown shoes with white leaches.

Seeing Misaki did not make it in time. Akagi stands here in front of the a random building and seeing the yellow zone thinking about the zone,

"Right after they declared martial law. Lot of change happened in yellow zone, lots of checkpoints around every two or blocks, most of the Ads produced by Brittonia even the speakers pole from above, continuously rambling about Brittonia rules, propaganda and regulations for people to follow"

he slightly looks up,

"The surveillance drones fly over the zone, watching their subject."

then he looked down again towards the large crowd walking in the street,

"In a last year survey, it's said out 100 human there is 7 or 8 Mutants walking on the same street, how can they make difference, I see they're all people"

Suddenly a shinning black coloured stunningly beautiful racing motorbike parked in front of him, Akagi bugs out from looking at that black bike, the biker wearing a black biker leather jacket, blue jeans and a grey helmet. Once the biker removes her helmet, blue hair falls on her shoulder.

It is Misaki, staring at Akagi leaning on the wall still looking at her bike "Do you know Plex Supermarket is?" Akagi nods, seeing him that he knows the place, Misaki puts her back on her helmet "Good, meet you there"

*jee je jejeeevroooom* she went off to the market.

Akagi still staring at the bike while it moves away,

"How the hell did she got that bike, whose going to believe she's just 16 years old however that bike was awesome, I don't know she can ride a bike, and why the hell she called me here. She just told me go to Supermarket" He exhales "Well I better catch up with her"

He stopped his whining and walked towards to the Supermarket.
