"Daughter... my princess..." - Souichiro said when he saw that Saya was with her mother, safe and sound. He couldn't contain himself anymore and hugged her carefully-"You don't know how worried she was"
He was not worried about being branded as weak for showing
this facet to his men because it was impossible for a father
he was not relieved to know that his daughter was out of danger. "Dad..." - the pink-haired girl muttered while
she was starting to cry.
The rest of the group only smiled at the interaction of the two Takagi, so they decided to leave so they could have some family time.
"Cloud..."-Souichiro said as he looked at the blond-"We'll talk later"
"Ok"-the boy agreed calmly as he left with
others.
"What do you want to talk to him about?" Saya asked curiously.
"Just a few small matters" - the Yakusa leader smiled, although he noticed how his daughter frowned when she did not receive the answer she wanted -"Princess, things will not always go as you wish, that is why you have to adapt to the situation"
"Ok"-the girl agreed as she agreed, although her father noticed that she had not taken her words to heart.

"The operation should be over by now…" Rika sighed as she watched as people continued to evacuate, "How come there are still so many people left?"
"That's not the problem..." - denied her partner - "The problem is that these things keep coming without stopping"
"If it wasn't for the electrified ruler, this would be much more difficult" - another of the soldiers sighed as he watched as another horde of zombies approached - "I guess the break is over"
"And I wanted to call my friend" - Rika murmured while
she shook her head. "You can do it later, captain" - another soldier sighed.
"I know... I was just thinking out loud" - the purple-haired sniper denied - "It's time to get down to business"
"Hai!" - the soldiers exclaimed.
Rika had a serious look on her face but a bad feeling invaded her thoughts as she looked towards the shore. It was as if her mind was warning him of the possible events that would happen shortly.
"Is something wrong, captain?" - asked a soldier.
"It's nothing…" Rika denied as she pointed in the direction of the approaching zombies-"You know what to do!"

The day had passed and it was already night.
Cloud had spent the whole day with Kyoko to get to know her better and he had to admit that the bad luck the woman had had in her life was worrying. Although this only made him want to protect her even more - "I guess that's one way to start this."
Right now, Cloud was walking towards Souichiro's office so they could talk. When he arrived, he knocked on the door and waited until he was signaled for him to come in. "Come in."
"Excuse me"-said the blonde as he entered the room, only to see how Souichiro was sitting reading some reports.
"It's good to see that you're safe..." - said the yakuza leader without taking his eyes off the reports - "I appreciate you continuing with your work as a bodyguard"
"You know very well that I didn't do it because this was my job" -denied the blonde-"I've known Saya for years, long before she decided to take the job, so she's important to me"
"That's good to hear" - Souichiro nodded - "Now... how about we talk about a possible relationship with my princess?"
"I'm in a relationship... a bit particular" - denied Cloud - "I'm sure Saya explained it to you"
"Yes, she told me"-nodded the yakuza leader-"Although I don't think
That was necessary when I saw how those women looked at you, impressive if I had to say it. You make me remember my past self"
"Let's get to the point, Souichiro" - Cloud said seriously.
"I have a bad feeling, Cloud" - Souichiro said seriously as he got up from his desk and walked towards the window - "You can call it what you want, paranoia, distrust, instinct, I don't care... but it doesn't change that this bad feeling It has saved my life more than once.
"Everything is about to change, Cloud and I feel like I won't be around to see it" - continued the yakuza leader.
Cloud was surprised when he heard this, as he never thought his 'boss' would react this way.
"There are things that cannot be changed, Cloud" - Souichiro continued - "And in my case, it is my death..."
"Did you give up so soon?" - asked the blond - "That doesn't sound like you"
"Believe me, I have tried more than one thing" - the yakuza leader sighed - "Train my troops, improve the security of the mansion, get many more weapons, look for doctors, nurses among other important jobs. I have been preparing myself for any situation but This bad feeling won't go away"
"That's why I'm asking you for just one thing"- Souichiro sighed as he turned to look the boy straight in the eyes- "If something were to happen to me, I hope you protect my daughter and my wife"
"I don't think Yuriko-san needs my protection" - denied the blond.
"Believe me, I know my wife and I know how she will react if something happens to me" - the yakuza leader sighed - "I even know that she will want to follow me... that is why I ask you to help her... because if something If it happened to both of us, Saya would be completely shattered."
"..."-Cloud just kept silent as he closed his eyes.
"That's why I ask you to please protect them" - Souichiro said with fear. He wasn't afraid of his fate, but of his family's.
"OK" - agreed the blonde - "But it will only happen if something bad
happened"
"Thank you" - the man smiled - "That takes a load off my mind.
"Now, back to the previous topic..." - continued the leader
yakuza - "what do you think will happen now?"
"The worst thing that could happen to us is to run out of energy" - answered the blond. He couldn't just say that a nuclear bomb would hit the Japanese Sea and create an EMP wave that would destroy all electrical systems in the city. That would be too specific, not to mention that 'unlikely!
"Hmm..."-Souichiro could only think silently as he analyzed the words of his younger subordinate-"I see...interesting opinion...I'll take it into account...you can leave"
"Hai"-nodded the blonde as he prepared to leave but stopped his steps because he heard his boss's voice-"By the way... I hope you accept the offer of marriage with my daughter... you know that she loves You"
"As I said, Souichiro…I'm already in a weird relationship…relationships…" the blonde muttered as he left the room.
"That boy is just like me when I was young"-Souichiro smiled as he shook his head-"Although he has better luck than mine at his age..."
He had seen the women around the boy, first there was the blonde nurse who had the biggest breasts he had ever seen. Second was the daughter of Hideki Busujima, a great Kenjutsu master and finally, the most 'common' of the three, his sexy teacher. Not to mention that there was also his daughter, the daughter of the police captain of the sixth precinct and Miku, a girl who had a terrible past.
"But you have to understand this, young Cloud" - Souichiro said seriously - "No matter who you are, how you are or what kind of life you have... there will always be a woman who will take you by the reins and tame you... It happened to me, it happened to my father and it will happen to you."

"Shido sensei...it's not like we've run out of food..."-a student said regretfully as he looked at his leader. They had managed to kill a small group of survivors and seized their supplies, too bad they were only men.
"Nothing remains?!" Shido exclaimed in surprise. He had done the math and those foods should have lasted them for at least 5 days and it had only been 2 - "How is that possible?!"
"I-I'm sorry... we're nervous and we've eaten too much..." - said another of the students.
"Bastards!" the professor roared as he punched his
students - "What kind of idiots are you?!"
"Stop beating us up and think of something!" - roared one of his students.
Shido gave him a cold look but quickly started to calm down - "Ok... you guys don't have any food, so there's nothing left to do but risk looking for more"
"But you still have food!" - exclaimed the student who had shouted at him earlier. "Indeed, I still have food" - Shido agreed with calm as his smile grew colder and colder-
"Do you know why? Because I didn't eat all my food by myself!
because if!"
"Do you guys think that food is easy to get?!" -exclaimed the teacher as he looked at his idiotic students-"Do you think we will have the same luck as last time?!"
=_= - the students just kept silent while sighing with regret.
"It seems that they are not as stupid as he thought" -Shido snorted
- "But they are lucky"
"?" -The boys looked at Shido in surprise when they heard the teacher's words from him.
"Soon we will enter the territory of Souichiro Takagi, the father of that little pink-haired whore" - Shido smiled - "And if I know that idiot well, he will have created a safe zone, perfect place for us to take asylum"
A big smile appeared on the boys' faces because it was obvious that not only would they be safe in this place, but they would have food and possibly 'fun'.
