Raiden and Toshi both stood together on the 5th floor, holding wooden swords in their hands. They were ready to take action against the incoming terror.
"Let's get out of this school," Toshi said.
Raiden nodded and said, "Yeah, we will escape but first we gotta find Hatsuhi. She must be somewhere here, hiding or running around."
"Raiden," Toshi took a pause, "I can't come with you to find Hatsuhi. I must go and check on my father, you know right? We live around the corner from the school. These people might have gone to attack the whole area."
"Yeah I understand but it won't take you much time, we will find her real quick and escape," Raiden said, desperately.
"Raiden! Didn't I tell you that you should take care of your problems on your own?" It's your call, you can either go look for Hatsuhi or come with me." Toshi didn't wait for Raiden's response and left.
'Go look for Hatsuhi or come with you?' Raiden stood there as he saw Toshi running off. 'If I go with Toshi then I surely will be safe... but it won't matter if I escaped the school and Hatsuhi is trapped here.'
Raiden took his stand with that wooden sword in his hand, "You just wait Hatsuhi! I'm coming to save you," he said.
People were running up from lower floors to the roof. As roof felt like the safest place in the whole school. But Raiden was going against the crowd.
He had descended to the 4th floor.
The school had a total of 5 floors and 1 roof above all floors. Raiden was now on the 4th floor. His classroom was on the 3rd floor, which he believed was the most likely place where Hatsuhi could be hiding.
The 4th floor was completely empty. There was no one there. Neither the people who had evacuated or neither the crazy cannibals were on that floor. That floor was as if nothing had happened in the school. So quiet, clean, and empty.
Raiden went around the whole corridor of the 4th floor to check if anyone was hiding in the classroom. But he found nothing.
He decided now to descend to the lower floor. The 3rd floor was where his classroom was and where he had hoped Hatsuhi would be.
He reached around the stairs and was ready to go down.
"H.... H-h-h-... He… hel…"
A sound came from the other side of the stairs.
'Help? Did I hear it right? There is someone asking for help…. I better move fast!'
Raiden quickly went down the stairs and put his foot on the 3rd floor.
Blood and corpses.
Those were the things that welcomed Raiden on that floor.
He couldn't process his mind after seeing that horrific scene. It was like he had entered a different world from the 4th floor.
3rd floor was entirely doomed. Corpses laid on the floor as if it wasn't a big deal. The atmosphere was horrible. The air stunk. Flies were flying around every corpse.
Everyone was dead in the worst possible way ever. Some had their hands missing. Some had their organs gouged out. Some even didn't have their heads attached. Every dead person died a horrible death. And, everything laid around Raiden. He was standing in the center of that horrific thing.
'What the hell is this? How can something so terrifying happen here like that? It's not just… possible!'
Raiden stood in a pool of blood and couldn't move a single inch. He felt like throwing up but the fear didn't even allow him to do that. He was completely frozen.
"H-h… h-e-l-p…. Help…."
A voice came from where Raiden stood. He looked down and found a person lying near his foot. A person who almost felt dead. He had wounds all over his body. His stomach was the most mess of all. Raiden could see a big hole inside his stomach. Raiden was surprised that, this guy wasn't already dead.
"He…..l-p …. Please..."
Raiden wanted to help him but his body didn't move. He wasn't even sure what he could do to help the guy. Raiden just stood there seeing that guy getting closer to his death.
A voice came from Raiden's left side. Someone came out from one of the classrooms. A big and tall figure. A man who looked like he had taken a bath in a pool of blood. And, Raiden could tell it definitely was not his own blood.
Raiden was terrified, as that man kept on closing the distance between them. Raiden wanted to run but couldn't. He was frozen in fear.
'Am I going to die too? Right here, in that shitty place? No way! I gotta run away. Damn it! Body. Move! Move! Move! Move!!!!!!!!!'
That man came directly in front of Raiden. They both looked inside each other's eyes. His eyes were pure white, with no sign of pupil at all.
Raiden didn't want to move at all. He felt like moving would be a deadly move now. Not like he could move, even if he wanted. With this man standing so close to him, Raiden witnessed one of the most horrific scenes in his life.
That man made a move. He stumbled forward. He was about to fall over Raiden.
'Fuck. I'm dead.' That was all Raiden could think at that instant.
But instead of falling over to Raiden, that man fell on his right side. On top of that other guy.
The guy who was taking his last breath, had that man fall over him. That big man opened his mouth and embedded his teeth into that guy's skull. The guy wasn't even able to resist what was happening to him.
It was not long when Raiden heard the sound of the breaking of that guy's skull. Which, that man was now chewing, little by little.
Raiden was terrified by what he had just witnessed. It wasn't a sight that a normal human could comprehend.
'Monster! This guy is not even a human. He is a pure monster.'
