Chương 10: Summoned

"What's going on?!" Yumi trembles.

"I believe we will find out, out there," Mirai said.

Yumi clings to Mirai more, frightened.

One by one the bio-genetics walks toward the door, stepping out.

"Excuse me, why are we walking towards the door?!" a girl called Katsuji Haya asked. She had short dark brown straight hair and light blue eyes like the ocean. She grabbed Shino's shirt for a brief second before letting go. He halts facing her.

"Didn't you hear the computer voice?!" Shino asked.

She stared at his lip's reading the words with her eyes.

"No," Haya said with a stern look. Shino blinks confused.

"Because am deaf!"

Shino stiffens for a brief second.

"The computer program called Holly said we should walk through the door to a place called the briefing room," Shino said in sign language, making words sign with his hands.

Haya froze at his action. Ever since no one has used sign hands for her. Shino left.

Haya stared at his back as he walked away. 'I already know your words by the movement of your lips'. Haya was annoyed by what he did. She just followed behind.

"I will help you," Kaname said to Hiro.

"I don't need your help, just leave me alone!" Hiro hissed, he hated the idea of being helpless now, this was all new to him and it pissed him off.

He aimlessly walks to the door edge of his and Ten's room.

"Aren't you going?! Don't you wanna know what happened?!" Ten asked.

Hiro was silent as he walked inside the room, but then he fell on the floor before he could even reach the bed.

"Why is he always frustrating," Ten said.

Kaname's eyes linger on Hiro before turning to walk away.

"Hey are you leaving him here?!" Ten asked, shocked.

"It's what he wants," Kaname said, not turning back.

Ten sighs followed behind, knowing even though he tried helping Hiro, he wouldn't take it.

Hiro was on the ground, he forced his body up, resting his back on the wall, his knees to his chest, his head bent down. Tears instantly filled his eyes, some of it dripped down on the floor. Hiro wraps himself with his arms as he cries and sobs.

"Mom, dad, where are you guys!"

The lights dim down.

*Sounds of Shoes on Iron*

The kids follow the path they were led to, unaware of where they were going. The hallway they entered wasn't white like their room, it was made more of Iron and wires like a tunnel, but the floors were clean metals. They all observed the strange hallway but they were clueless about their surroundings. The questions in their heads were becoming loud and demanding, they needed answers, any of any kind to explain their predicament.

"What if we were kidnapped by aliens after the end of the world," Ten said with a rub on his chin, his glasses turning blank white. It was a good explanation he could give right now, or maybe it was his too much love for sci-fi and fantasy movies that made him imagine all sorts of things all in one go, but he couldn't help but think. What if it was the work of aliens?

"That will be crazy, there's no such thing as aliens," Ryoji said, rolling his eyes ridiculously.

"Well, it's crazy a Chemical Plant that has stood for years before we were even born, exploded!" Ten notes.

"Well I guess so," Ryoji said with a scratch at the back of his head.

"I'm Saito Ten".

"Ida Ryoji".

"Where is that blind guy?!" Daiki asks, cutting in, their eyes drift to him.

"He isn't coming, and he doesn't want any help," Ten said remembering how defiant Hiro was, but he didn't blame him though after all the guy woke up blind and scared, Ten couldn't help but feel sorry for him.

"Well that's too bad," Daiki said.

"Who knows where we are going, we will get answers of why we were kidnapped" he adds.

Ten and Ryoji grimaced at the dark red-haired boy's words. He was odder than they counted him to be, no one said anything about being kidnapped. 'Come to think of it, he didn't understand a word I said back in the room'. Ten thought, sweat dripping behind his head.

"Masaaki Daiki, pleased to meet you guys".

Ten and Ryoji introduced themselves too.

Yumi rubs her eyes with the back of her hand, it was bloodshot from crying. She held Mirai's hand tightly. Kaneki saw her action.

"Is she one of the kids from your Dojo?!" Kaneki asked.

Mirai shakes her head negatively as she forces a weak smile.

"When I woke up, Yumi was in the same room with me, probably awake before me. She was crying so hard, she must have been scared all alone".

"I see".

"If I could see one of those kids from the dojo again, I would be glad," Mirai said as her eyes grew wistful thinking about them.

"I wish I could see my brother again".

Mirai turns to him with sad eyes, her eyes then averted away from him.

"I guess we all have something to long for".

"We have arrived!" Holly's voice sounds

They halt at the sound of the computer female voice. The door they stop in front of slides open, revealing a wide hall with tables and chairs like a classroom, a wide transparent wall computer at the front, the ceiling bright with lights. They stepped inside in astonishment as they took their seats each.

"What now?!"

"A classroom?!"

"What's gonna happen?!"

Whispers filled the classroom hall, as their faces grew more in confusion.

The wide computer screen went on and a video came up. The kids froze the moment they saw the Prime Minister of Tokyo, two scientists seated beside him, a woman and a man.

"The Prime Minister?!" Kaneki said shocked. Others were stunned by this too.

"What's going on?!" Shino said with shaky eyes.

Ten adjusted his glasses. 'I was right'. He thought. 'The government did have a hand in secluding us in a room'.

He had dark hair moist perfectly and well kept, and hazel dark eyes, he wore a well-fitted dark blue suit. The Japanese flag behind him against the iron wall.

"Hello, Bio-genetics!" Prime Minister Inoue Kiyoshi began.
