Capítulo 7: Reunited

"Everything is temporarily"

An intense situation is happening on a campus, someone's foot is running towards somewhere, dodging all the peoples that panicking because of the sudden disaster. Heavy breathing from someone, dropping sweats, screaming from others. Bloods everywhere, dead bodies getting eaten, and some trash flying around.

"We need to get at the clinic as soon as possible!! He was in there!!", someone's with soft voice said.

"I know okay, we just need to get pass this peoples running infront of us!!", another deep but quite soft voice said.

Two young men continue running towards the clinic, while getting bumped by people panicking. Their mouth fell from fear, the clinic that their friend was supposed to be, is now surrounded by rotten looking peoples that eating others.

"What should we do now!?", the soft voice said.

"...we have no choice, he probably dead inside...let's go! We need to get out of here!!", the young fat man said.

Going back in the present day, Vins was continue having conversations with his friends, Fionna was looking around and inspecting the place for safetiness.

"...let's continue the conversation inside, we can't let those freaks saw us here..", Rhyanne said and lead the group inside of the church.

"Huh!!?? What the heck is these!!?", the three of them said in unison.

The church inside was so wide, there's some shop looking tents that standing on the side, so many peoples walking around, talking to others, others is just buying some stuff, looking on a board, and praying for their lost love ones.

"...its our camp...", Rhyanne answer.

"I mean yeah its your camp...but this is beyond of our expectations..", Vins said back.

"Well, they are the one's who do all of that...we just agreeing to them..", Chris said while standing beside Vins.

Suddenly, a soft calm voice speaks behind them, and a beautiful woman is standing there, she have a long silky black gray hair, wearing a rectangular glasses, have a freckles, and wearing a duster clothes.

"...Fionna? I-is that you?", Fionna slowly look behind and her eyes grow wide and tears start falling on her cheeks.

"..s-sister!?", she said and quickly run towards her older sister, hugging her tightly.

Vins slightly smile because Fionna saw another family member of her. Fionna was happy and crying at the same time, she hug her older sister like she doesn't want to let go.

"I'm glad your fine, i'm sorry i didn't get a chance to contact you and our parents..", she said.

"...bigsis, i'm glad your fine too...super glad", Fionna said while her tears are continue dripping.

"...where is mother? Father? Alkas? He was with you guys right?", Fionna suddenly stop on crying and hugging her older sister.

Vins suddenly feel upset and frustrated at what her older sister mention right now. He clenches his fist, and gritted his teeth, Chris saw it, he thought that something bad happens out there to them.

"...Vins, what's wrong?", he ask.

"...i couldn't save them...i run...and taking Fionna and the kid away from the fight...i left her father there... sacrificing himself for us..", Vins said with a sad tone.

"...Vins, not everytime..you can save anyone..remember, you are not a hero who can save anyone...in this world? Death is the only thing that waiting for us...we can't stop it anymore..", Chris said trying to cheer him up.

"...you can use the death of others for your own development...to get stronger...", he added. "...don't blame yourself..".

Fionna didn't speak after she hears what her older sister said, her eyes turn lifeless again, remembering everything that happened few days ago. Suddenly, she lost her balance, almost falling at the ground, but Vins quickly moves and catch her unconscious body.

"..Fionna!? Wake up hey!!", he shout trying to wake her up.

On a room upstairs, they put her on a empty bed, letting her rest for a while. A bulky huge man with a beard on his face, he have buzz cut hairstyles, a navy shirt, and a jaggy pants. He has a serious look on his face, and he was staring at Vins like he doesn't like him.

"..hey kid, tell me...what happened to our family?", he said with a annoyed tone.

"...they are dead..", Vins said while looking at them with weak eyes.

Suddenly, Armando Joe -Fionna's brother in law, attack Vins out of nowhere, he grabbed his neck and pinned him down at the wall, choking him.

"...don't f*cking lie to me kid...i'm not joking around..", he said with furious eyes.

"...Hon!! Stop that!! Don't kill the kid..come on", Christina Mae Mendez-Joe said while sitting besides Fionna.

He sigh and listen to his wife, he brought down Vins and slowly stepping back at the wall, crossing his arm.

"...kid, tell me..is it true?", she ask.

Vins hold his neck, and coughed for a while, Chris help him to stand up, "...believe it or not, its true...they sacrifice themselves for us...not Mrs. Mendez...but your father is..", he said with a proud tone.

"...oh my, father..", she hugs her husband and start crying.

"...but i promise to your father...that i will protect your sister, as long as i live..", he said but Armando counter it.

"..protect? My sister in law? What a funny joke kid, look at yourself...you didn't even look strong...you didn't also dodges or counter my sudden attack earlier...how can you protect her if your a weakling!?", he said.

"...i'm not right now...but i will get stronger...stronger to protect her from people that want her so badly...", he said with full of determination.

Chris on a side smile because he doesn't know that Vins had a side like this, ever since they become friends he never see Vins act like this. He thought that those experiences outside make him like this. He was proud as his friend, deep inside of him he was screaming because of how cool Vins right now.

At the ground floor of the church, Leigh and Chloe is walking around like he was touring her at the church. Chloe told him that she was searching for her parents, and Vins is helping her to find them.

"...he promise to me, that we will find my parents..", she said.

Leigh smile because he knows Vins for a long time, he never take back his words when he already gave it to others.

"...lucky of you, Vins has his word..", he smile at her.

Suddenly, a deep shaking voice called Chloe's name behind them,

"Baby...is that you? Is it really you Chloe!?", an adult man with a little bit moustache, stress eyes, and spiky blonde hair was standing behind them with a shock face.

Chloe's eyes grew wide and tears fall from her eyes. The old man behind them, is non other than her father.

"Papa!!", she run towards him, while her father kneel infront of her, hugging her back.

"...oh no, my baby...!", he said with a haply shaking voice.

"...papa!! I miss you so muchhh!!", she said with a happy teary expression.

Leigh was on a side staring at both of them, but looks like he is not trusting Chloe's old man. He just left them and head upstairs where someone is watching the church for them.

Going back at the second floor, Vins was still standing on a side, Fionna slowly get up and hold her head.

"...really huh, you gonna do that because you like me?", she ask.

"...no other reason..", he answer quickly.

"...that's outrageous, at least have any other reason Vins..", Fionna said looking away from Vins and blushing.

They have a conversation with Fionna's older sister, Christina about what happened back there in their house. Fionna become emotional again, like breakdown. Vins is just on the walk, standing with Chris besides him. After some few hours of talking, Vins and Chloe goes out the room and want to explore the whole camp.

"...can you walk?", he ask.

"Yeahh yeah! I can walk...and stop following me!", she answers.

Suddenly, a door open and Kentoki comes out, fully naked. Fionna and Vins screams out, while she covered her eyes and turn back, while Vins pushes him back inside.

"What the heck man!!? What are you doing there, fully naked!!?", he ask while screaming.

"...i f*cked someone..", he answer directly.

"Huh!!? We just came here and yo—WAHHH!!", Vins was shock and start blushing when a young woman comes out the room too.

"..oh~? Are they your friends~? Their joining?", she ask with a seductive tone.

"No!!!!!!", they both shout.

On a slow moment, the young woman's towel that has been wrapped at her naked body, fell at the ground, showing her beautiful, silky hourglass body shape, and sweaty. Vins saw it and suddenly his nose burst out a blast of blood, making him flew back at the wall (comedic way). Fionna and Kentoki suddenly startled at his sudden behavior and got worried. Fionna kneel besides her trying to wake him up, Kentoki get a towel to cover him, as he quickly go towards Vins.

"...oh my~pervert~!", the woman said with another seduce tone.

At the bell tower, where the unknown sniper is located, Leigh arrives on top of it and is now sitting at the edge with the sniper. He has a cold appearance, his hair is short, somewhat spiky hair that falls over his forehead, with strands of varying lengths pointing in different directions. He is wearing a collared garment of a jacket, with some details suggesting layered clothing. The collar is visible and the garment has some textured details along the neckline area.

"Do you know who's here? Addam?", Leigh ask the sniper and say his name.

Mark Addam Bueno, Vins bestfriend since the start of their senior highschool days. He was so close with Vins and they treating each other like brothers. He was with him always, going somewhere with Vins, and agreeing with him always.

"Who?...is it those people i let in?", he ask coldly.

"...yeah about them...the one you have conversation with...its Vins..", a sudden change appears on Addam's face.

His cold appearance suddenly turn into a soft and joy appearance, he smile widely, his eyes become lively, like he become somewhat alive.

"Vins is alive!!? Where is he!?", he ask like a kid, as his arm is keep moving up and down.

"...downstairs, and guess who's with him..", Leigh added.

"...who?", he ask.

Somewhere near the Central Plaza, on the road where Vins and his group park the van. A truck pulling something huge behind it appears with people walking besides it. They have guns with them, carried. Inside of the huge thing behind the truck, a old man was sitting on a table, with his feet on top of it. He was staring at his caliber 50, while spinning it.

"...are we there yet?", he ask his men at the door.

"...just few more turn and we will arrive there sir..", his men said, while he just nods.

"...i will definitely take that place from those bastards, did they think that they can beat me? I have a whole army with me...and they only have four good fighters, and some punt weak peoples hiding behind those walls..", the unknown old man said while slowly getting up from the chair.

He walk towards a board, and stares at some photos they took, there's some blade stabbing those pictures like they are targets. Those pictures contains, Chris and his three friends faces. Are they somewhat related to this old man? Did they do something to make them as targets of this old man?

"...prepare for a war, if they still didn't give the church at me, we will declare war with them..and guess what who's winning..i am", the old man wearing a rugged military jacket said to his men behind him.
