Frozen in time Yuto hasn't an ounce of bravery to move a muscle, The lady's eerie presence outweighs his thinking capacity, this lady is beyond recognition, A monster which no human could defeat, All his life's memories flashed before his eye in an instant.
'Please someone... Save me'
This was his ever thought of wanting to be saved, the regret of not going with Kenzo hits his mind. What if he had gone and thrown away that ego which he holds so dear to himself, maybe this situation wouldn't have happened.
"YOU LITTLE BOY, GET AWAY"
'She's talking to me, Why can't I move even when she tells me to, She doesn't want to hurt me right? this is just an act or something.
The lady struggles to keep herself in one spot, waiting for someone to come already, Yuto still not moving a single muscle despite the lady screaming towards him in a distorted voice to run away home.
'I might die right at this moment it might all end, Kenzo please just appear and save me already, stop this dumb act and just come out'
This scene was beyond the imagination, He couldn't phantom the scene at all, Distressed and kicked into a corner without anyone else to save him, This moment will change everything for Yuto, Life or death.
"GHGHGHGHGH"
The lady slowly walks towards Yuto's location and possibly ends his entire existence right at this moment. The sound of those sinister footsteps for no reason hadn't any sound to go with it. It was the silent dread of death approaching and having no ability to save yourself despite knowing you're going to die.
"Die!"
The lady suddenly started getting faster and faster towards Yuto, They were about to meet at this alleyway face-to-face with a monster, death was approaching Yuto, he was powerless and unable to fight the monster coming.
*Whoosh*
The wind swooshed and flew around the place when the monster decided to leap towards Yuto, Once and for all ending his bloodline and his existence but during this time Yuto couldn't expect what was about to happen, The monster instantly teleported in front of Yuto not knowing how or why this occurred, the speed given off was immaculate to anything a human would achieve for even the military convoys used around the streets.
Yuto got a glimpse of something behind the monster seeming a bolt going towards him, Tons of men dressed in black came from nowhere and some sort of projectile was about to hit both the monster and him, Yuto braced for impact before seeing it had an explosive that might kill him and the monster, a two for one deal to end everyone.
'Is this the end for me, Kenzo and the director I'm sorry we couldn't enjoy one last meal together, Kenzo I didn't hate you that much despite you getting on my nerves a couple of times but you director I should've thanked you for everything you have given me and the rest of the Children who have lost their family'
A white flash blinds Yuto and a loud thunder is heard towards the lady's location, his ears become deafened due to the sudden loud sound hitting his ears, slightly knocked back into a wall he hits his head off the narrow alleyway causing himself to be slightly concussed from the effect of the blast.
"argh I can't see anything, what is happening"
He falls on the floor in peace as there is nothing to be heard or nothing to be seen, Laying down for a minute in the narrow alleyway he slowly gets back into a standing position while revealing the scene in front of him by opening his eyes.
"Clear the area, make sure this is the only person affected"
"YES SIR"
The military soldiers run a scan throughout the intersection, Roads and alleyways, they make sure this is the only incident to occur from the lady, Yuto standing there slightly shocked from what unfolded gets discovered by a soldier.
"Sir we have a little boy found in an alleyway, Looks around the age of 15, he has blonde hair and seems slightly shocked from the rocket we fired upon the lady"
"Get him into the infirmary, and make sure to scan him for any sort of infection, If he has any corruption inside of him, terminate and note down as some sort of violation you see fit"
"YES SIR"
They drag Yuto out of the streets into a military convoy to transport him into the medical facility in the military building district which involves the main Military HQ, Medical facilities and the rations which each citizen gets based on the work they do, The convoy continues driving towards the medical facility until stopping at the entrance where some multiple nurses and doctors rush out.
"Stay with us boy, we will scan you, don't worry about anything"
'Where am I? What's happening...'
Yuto, confused about his whereabouts passes out quietly while being lifted into the facility, the staff get Yuto hooked up to many machines to test for multiple different problems which could have occurred during his meeting with the lady.
"Blood, Heart rate, Pressure, injury and no signs of infection"
"Doctor, It's a miracle that this boy didn't become like her "
"That's true"
"Listen, Recently we had an upsurge in these incidents, we should contact the Elders to increase patrols or something, as Doctors that's the least we could do to save these poor souls like this boy from those monsters"
The doctor then walked away with the military personnel and nurses out of the room to let Yuto rest for the rest of the night. The director has received word of Yuto's hospitalisation and will arrive in the morning to collect Yuto if he's in condition.
8 hours later...
Yuto opens his eyes
"Someone's finally awake, it's been eight hours according to the nurses"
"Director... I'm sorry-"
"It's fine, I heard from Kenzo that you fell asleep in class and that you will get lost since you denied his help, yet this time you outdid yourself Yuto"
Yuto smirked at the director's comment
"I learned from the best after"
"Besides that, Let me ask you Yuto just one simple question"
"What is it, Sir?"
"How does it feel to meet a Shadow for the first time in your life"
