Chereads / Reincarnated in sekirei / Chapter 60 - Enemy

Chapter 60 - Enemy

( Emilia's POV )

When I was watching the BIMs a small amount of peace returned to our group but if nothing else I felt in more danger than before, nothing good will come of staying with them.

One of us went exploring the island leaving me alone with the guy in the bandana and a fat guy, Shortly after the other guy went scouting some planes came over the island and they dropped something on the island and we decided to look into it.

When we arrived at the place where the object had fallen, we saw a briefcase hanging from a parachute stuck in a tree, the bandana guy took the briefcase and when he opened it it had a lot of food and even sunscreen, which I really needed.

We ate to our heart's content and while we were enjoying the food the last member of our team appeared and he started yelling about food being an important resource and that we should be rationing it, in the middle of scolding the guy in the bandana moved quickly behind him and he cut his throat with a knife that he was hiding, some of his blood fell on my face, someone had died in front of me and I knew that this would continue to happen as long as I was on this island.

//////////

Out of fear or simple shock we all returned to the beach, the guy in the bandana was dangerous but if we didn't confront him he didn't do anything against us.

That night I was expecting to have nightmares but I found myself inside the world of BTOOOM, with Yuuki in front of me.

Yuuki: the game has already started Himiko, you need to be prepared for everything.

I wanted to answer him but someone shook my shoulders to wake me up, the fat guy woke me up and told me that we should run away and I agreed, we moved silently until we got a good distance and then walked as fast as we could which wasn't much because the fat guy was out of shape.

We took a short break and had something to drink to recover our energy, after a few minutes he panicked and ran away pulling my hand strongly.

Emilia: what are you doing!?

Fat guy: he's coming, we're being followed!

Emily: huh? How do you know that?

Fat guy: the chip in our hands, if you move your fingers you can activate the radar!

I was uncomfortable with his touch but at this moment, surviving was more important, I moved my fingers slightly and as he said the radar activated, He was right we were being followed and if he catches up with us he will probably kill us.

We arrived at a wooden bridge, I crossed quickly but he did not cross with me and I asked him what was wrong.

Fat guy: I can't, I don't think the bridge can support my weight, come back, we need to find another way.

A voice in my head told me that I should continue, why I had to go back and find another way when I was being persecuted, I couldn't just leave him to die so I tried to convince him to cross the bridge but he refused.

The guy in the bandana catch up to us quickly and being cornered the fat guy used a BIM that let out a gas and when the guy in the bandana backed up the fat guy crossed the bridge without any problem and he took my hand again and we continued walking.

Fat guy: we need to be prepared, other enemies could appear.

Emilia: enemies?

He turned around when he heard the doubt in my voice and he put his hands on my shoulders, squeezing hard.

Fat guy: Everyone on the island is an enemy, if we don't do anything we won't survive.

Emilia: Let go of me! You are hurting me!

I struggle to try to get away but he's holding me too tight and I start to hear Yuuki's voice in my head.

Yuuki: The game has already started Himiko.

Emilia: I can't, I don't want to kill someone else.

Yuuki: You need to defend yourself, if you can't do that first, you won't be of any help to anyone.

Emilia: what should I do?

Yuuki: run, his BIMs don't explode, they just release gas, create a new plan once you're safe.

I stopped hearing Yuuki's voice and the fat guy had his face in front of mine, I saw Yoshioka's image in him and instinctively punched him with all my Strength.

Fat guy: your bitch! I am protecting you!

Emilia: Let go of me!

After I hit him and he grabbed me hard and pressed his face against mine, I trembled in disgust and I headbutted him to free myself, and immediately after that, I used my stun gun.

When he was on the ground I felt proud, for defending myself, for winning, just like Yuuki.

//////////

When I was alone I found a river and I cleaned my body, I wanted to remove the dirt and sweat from my body while thinking about what to do next but I got distracted when I heard a sound on the other side of the river, when I turned around I saw a guy standing in the river and he was staring at me and i remembered i had unbuttoned my shirt and my bra was exposed, I covered myself and gave him a dirty look, I gathered all my things and I ran away, I heard him calling me and trying to cross the river but obviously I didn't stop, all men on this island are my enemies.

When I was sure he wasn't following me I sat down near what looked like an old radio tower.

Emilia: Yuuki, what am I supposed to do?

Some water fell on my hands and I thought it was raining but when I looked up I saw the fat guy who had attacked me earlier and before I could react he pushed me to the ground, he grabbed my hands above my head and used his weight to keep me from moving, I tried to struggle but my body froze, with one word.

Fat guy: you really hurt me, I need to give you a proper punishment.

Punishment, do I really deserve this?

For what happened to my friends, do I need to be punished? I didn't know that was going to happen, that wasn't my fault.

Fat Guy: Now then, what should I do with you first~?

Blondie: let me go! You are too heavy!

He was looking at my body while drooling, I felt disgusted but I couldn't do anything and when he ripped my shirt I closed my eyes and I started to cry, I'm sorry Yuuki I couldn't win, I moved my hand towards my pocket where I had a BIM hidden, I'd rather die and take him with me than let him take my body.

Before I reached the BIM all the weight on me disappeared and I heard a crash sound, I put a hand on my breasts to cover myself and a soft cloth fell on me, I was confused so I slowly opened my eyes and I saw the boy who had jumped out of the plane first the day before, he was easy to recognize with that long silver hair with blonde tips.

He had his foot on the fat guy's head looking at him with cold uncaring eyes, he moved his foot slowly and after a few seconds of agonizing screams, he was dead.

He turned around and looked directly at me with his different-colored eyes, they were no longer cold, they were filled with a genuine concern that I hadn't felt in a long time.

???: Hey, are you ok?

At that moment I was able to contain my tears.
