Chapter 356: Bad Odds
"I WILL LET YOU GET AWAY WITH THIS, YOU DAMNED MONSTERS!" Takashi shouts, peaking over his cover after a lull in the enemy's fire and shooting his own weapon, managing to pop one of them in the skull.
Kohta was the one who was doing the most work, of course, using his bolt-action rifle to steadily whittle the enemies' numbers down. While they were lacking guns, this wasn't the case for their number of fighters... With each one downed, the next would pick up their weapon and continue where they left off.
"AGhk!" Takashi yelps as a bullet skim over his shoulder, removing some flesh and skin as he passes. "Why is it always me!?" he groans, quickly bandaging it up before continuing.
Fortunately for the outnumbered group, they had the assistance of Darth as well, the shadow hand attracting everyone's attention as it efficiently snaps the necks of anyone holding a weapon.
"WHAT THE HELL IS THAT THING!?"
"WHO CARES! JUST FUCKING RUUUN!" one guard shouts, fleeing in the face of the strange creature.
Chaos erupts in the enemies' ranks, some continuing to try and fight Takashi's group, some attempting to kill Darth(Unsuccessfully), while others just flee, heading down to the first floor and running away from the building entirely.
Most would be eaten by the remaining zombies in the area, while the others would slowly starve to death without any hope of survival. Not that any of that mattered to Takashi's group who were still in the midst of fighting.
"The guards are down, let's get in there and search the place!" Takashi shouts after seeing no one else appear at the windows.
The others nod, with Rei and Saeko charging at the doors first. They prey the wooden boards from it and kick it open, only to stop as they see an unexpected sight...
Michael was standing with crossed arm, foot firmly holding Shido to the floor. Takashi and the others arrive not long after, all of them unable to utter anything as they stumble onto the scene.
"Good news... I've got this prick. Bad news... Just about everything else in this shit hole." he says with a dour face despite the sarcasm in his tone.
Takashi and Rei feel their hearts drop, "What do you mean?"
...
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Michael leads the group through the building while telekinetically carrying Shido, he'd also gagged the guy a minute or two ago as he wouldn't shut up, continually attempting to bribe, convince, and even blackmail him to his side.
The man didn't have any friends left however, as even the kind-hearted Shizuka wouldn't have a foot to stand on once she saw the shit in the basement.
Opening the door, the group are first hit by the stench, then, the wails of sorrow and crying women. Downstairs, the group are greeted by makeshift wooden cells which had many tied up women in them, each of the girls covered in bruises, wound, and other disgusting fluids.
Instantly though, Rei's eyes lock onto one of the worst-off women... "M-MOM!?" she almost screeches, running over to her. The woman had brown hair similar to Rei's, but she was covered in bruises and cuts, even had many of her teeth knocked out, making her speech slurred.
Tears stream down Rei's face as she hugs her mother, ignoring the disgusting fluids covering her. "H-how could they do this to you! M-mom! P-please tell me you're fine!"
The woman, Kiriko Miyamoto, hugs her daughter, "I'm phiine." she manages to get out, her throat hoarse from the abuse she'd taken.
"Don't worry mom, this will never happen again. EVER." Rei growls, kissing her mother on the cheek before standing and marching over to Shido. "YOU!"
"MMmph!"
*SMACK!*
Rei's fist collides with the man's face, knocking away the thin cloth that'd been gagging him. "I SWEAR I DIDN'T-"
*SMACK!*
"G-GET AWAY! I DIDN'T TOU-"
*SMACK!*
Rei continues to wail on Shido, unleashing all of her anger and indignation towards him with an uncountable number of punches. Even then, she didn't feel vindicated, having Michael drop the man to the ground so she could kick him instead.
The group looks on at this solemnly, not doing anything to stop her. Takashi changes his focus however, looking around in search of his mother... Thankfully or not, she wasn't here, meaning that there was a high likelihood of her being in the evac zone... The same evac zone that'd departed two hours ago...
Shaking his head, he walks over and places a hand on Rei's shoulder, "That's enough. Any more and he'll die."
Rei pauses with her leg hovering over Shido's battered crotch, "GOOD! I WANT HIM DEAD!"
*Ahem!*
Michael coughs into his fist, "If you'd like, I have a better option for him..." he states with an eager grin.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In the morning the next day, the entire group was gathered atop a building that had a horde of zombies gathered underneath it. Specifically, they were all gathered around Shido, she was telekinetically floating above them while naked.
Michael glances to Rei, "Alright, flip a coin. Heads he goes higher, tails he goes lower."
Rei nods and flips it, landing on tails.
"HIIYYYY!?" Shido yelps as he's lowered towards the horde of zombies. "P-please! I NEVER MEANT ANY HARM! YOU CAN'T DO THIS TO ME! YOU CAN'T!"
Rei looks between her mother, who'd been dressed up warmly for this occasion, and Shido, "I think we can, Sensei." she remarks, flipping another coin. "Tails."
Shido's lowered again, allowing the zombies to reach up and claw at his feet and calves. He screams in agony as their rotten nails find purchase and scratch angry red lines into his flesh, one even gripping his big toe and bending the wrong way.
"Flip again Rei, I wonder how long he'd last." Michael casually says.
She nods, with the coin landing on heads this time. Shido raises out of the zombie's reach, allowing them to see the damage done to his legs.
"Oooh, that's gonna leave a mark." Michael jokes.
"STOP!"
"Oh, tails? Down you go Mr Shido." Michael laughs, lowering him again, further this time which allows the zombies to bite onto Shido's feet. They devour them quickly, all while Shido roars in agony.
This torture continues for quite some time surprisingly. Shido was even still alive with his lower half missing, the zombies having bitten off his genitals and legs. Once the man was dead though, Michael finished it with a Dragon Slave spell, killing all of the gathered zombies... It wasn't like he was going to miss the free EXP after all!
