Chapter 14 - Chapter 13

Days later...

I was walking through the halls, playing on my phone, it's my free period right now so I can do what I want for forty-five minutes. And, right now I'm just taking this time to be happy.

A few days ago we had a huge mission in the ZAA, going against the King Zonbi Scyther and the Queen Zonbi Scizor. And long story short, it was a success!

We've been celebrating since that day. And, people who were involved got a huge pay raise which Is always a good thing. But.. something just stayed with me since that day...

Raitoningu Hooder... Who turned out to be a Zonbi, had the same goal as the ZAA, killing the King and Queen.. And it just made no sense to me... Was he really trying to be a hero, or was it all fake... I just don't know.. Maybe there is no reason to think about it...

If I see him again, maybe I'll ask.

Hiraku POV

I sighed, staring at Hooder on the bed. "Man, why won't he wake up?" I asked as Aimi looked towards me.

"Think about it, he got beaten badly by that King, even after he unlocked his first stage, in the end he still got beat down badly." She said, rubbing his hand. I sat down on the chair beside her. I grabbed her hand.

"Man, thinking about it. If Mr. Kashikoi didn't come and rescue us, we would've died.." I said as she looked back down at Hooder.

"But you have to admit. Hooders first stage was awesome as hell right?" I asked she giggled and looked at me.

"Yeah." I laughed. "I never saw yours though. When are you gonna show us?" I asked leaning back in my chair.

She shrugged, "I don't know... I just don't like what my stage does to me." I rose an eyebrow.

"What does that mean? You don't like how it mutates your body?"

"It's not that. It changes my personality... It's not fun.."

I looked away. "I bet Hooder will still be into it though..."

"Huh?"

"Nothing!" I shouted as she rose an eyebrow at me before looking back down at Hooder.

I let out a breath and looked down at hooder. His breathing began to increase, and his eyes twitched. Me and Aimi looked at him with surprise.

"Hooder?!" Aimi shouted as Hooder opened one eye.

Hooder's POV

I began to awaken.. I looked to my right, seeing Aimi and Hiraku.

"Guys..?" I asked sitting up.

"Hooder!!" Aimi exclaimed wrapping her arms around my neck, hugging me. I jumped a bit and looked towards Hiraku.

"Bro. It's about time you woke up." He said as I smiled and Aimi backed up.

"What happened while I was out?" I asked as Aimi shook her head.

"Nothing that requires our attention." She said as I sighed of relief.

"Hooder. Your first stage is badass!" Hiraku said as I looked towards him.

"Huh?"

"Yeah! Those centipede tails and that bird mask is awesome!"

I smiled, "Thank you." I said dropping my head... Then, things began to run though my brain...

"Hooder? You alright?" I kept staring at the bed. I clenched my fist...

"Guys... I'm going to ask you two questions and you're going to answer it truthfully." They nodded.

"What do Kings and Queens do for the world...?" I asked as they hesitated for a bit.

"Well, nothing much. They're not like normal kings and queens, that make the world a better place. If anything they do the opposite. They're constantly staring war's, like what happened a few days ago. And their thirst for power is overwhelming.." Hiraku explained as the black fade got darker.

"I agree. Overall, King and Queens make this world hell." Aimi said as I moved on to my next question.

"Alright now. Do you think.. That Zonbi's and Humans could live amongst each other with no problem or conflicts...?" I asked.

"Hell yeah." Hiraku said speaking up first.

"Yeah, if Zonbi's didn't care so much about power, which results in them eating humans, then yes. Humans and Zonbi's could definitely coexist." Aimi explained as

I smiled. "Well... That settles it..." I said as they looked at me weirdly.

"Settles what?" Hiraku questioned chuckling a bit.

I rose my head, as they glowed an Amaranth Red... "My mission... Is to find and exterminate all Kings And Queens..." I said, a smirk coming onto my face..
