The Awakening: Bio-Genetics - Chapter 246

He recalled all the times he had before the black storm, of his family and then Kaiyo, and then after black storm, when he awoke in the white room, puzzled of his surroundings and then he turned to his side seeing an unconscious Hiro, a bandage wrapped around his eyes and then the realization struck him.

‘The world can be cruel sometimes…’

The fit he threw because he was blind, how he cried and called for his mom and dad, how pessimistic he was about everything, always feeling down and different from everyone, pushing everyone away because of his pain, his anger getting the better of him all the time.

And the result of his awakening abilities leading to the untimely death of Rin.

‘But…’

The time Hiro came to their rescue even though he was presumed dead, he suddenly appeared at a time they gave up hope to fight, telling them they were a fighting chance and saved them, his sudden struck of bravery, caused them to continue their mission.

‘…We still fight’

Their battle with the first Alpha, as they all faced near death experiences when Shino lost his arm saving Hiro, their comrade’s death along the way to secure a base in Fukuoka.

‘…we make sacrifices’

Sand when he defends Hiro from being taken, using every bit of strength he had even though it cost him everything, even though he was no longer a bio-genetic, he still stood and fought to protect.

‘…Because there are things we love’

When he saw Kaiyo during the party, how overjoyed he was that she was alive and well.

When Haya embraced him with tears in her eyes when she thought he was dead, telling him everything will be okay.

Even though he couldn’t protect Kaiyo, he couldn’t save her from her cruel fate, he knew she found peace because he freed her from being a monster.

‘…There are things worth protecting!’

He flashed his eyes open, the tail ready to plunge his forehead.

‘…And that will always make humanity live’

Hiro’s judgment about Humanity not being weak, because no manner what, they fight, they die, they hurt but still in all this humanity stands back on its feet and fight.

“THIS WORLD…” he shouts grabbing the stance Hiro once use to pierce Kenta.

“…WE LIVE IN IT, IT’S WORTH FIGHTING FOR!” he uses the stance to cut the tail in two, blood splashing.

Kenta’s eyes went wide at the sudden action.

“BECAUSE WE STRIVE TO RECLAIM THE SURFACE, FOR HUMANITY!” he shouts their bio-genetics quotes as he charged at Kenta.

***

Within Room C

Where immense destruction lay due to Kenta blowing up the entrances to this level. Yuki was stuck beneath a pile of rubbles from the broken walls, she tried to move but her lower half was caged within, buried within it but not crushed due to some supporting irons.

“Hiro,” she said worried as she continuously tries to move, but it wouldn’t budge, her body felt numb and she felt light-headed and weak, her strength wasn’t back yet after that pain in her head.

“Hiro” she drawled weakly, she needed to find out what was happening outside that door, she heard screams and shouts, which could only mean something was happening out there, Hiro might be in danger and she was stuck here unable to do anything.

Her eyes trembled, she was trapped.

***

‘Why?’ Kenta thought with gritted teeth as he watches Ten cut the tail with the stance he held. He didn’t get it, why were they still fighting, why? Humanity wasn’t worth it, they never were, why won’t they give in already.

“BECAUSE WE STRIVE TO RECLAIM THE SURFACE, FOR HUMANITY!” he shouts their bio-genetics quotes as he charged at Kenta.

“SHUT UP!” Kenta shouts, he didn’t wanna hear it, he didn’t wanna believe it, he had no hope for humanity anymore. A sphere ball of energy formed on his Kaiju palm, he launches it at Ten.

Ten saw this coming but smirks as he slides down due to the help of the blood against the floor, the energy missing him and slamming across the lobby.

Kenta froze. ‘He wasn’t coming after me!” he thought in realization, before he could act Ten had already used the stance to cut off the tail pinning Hiro.

Kenta roared in pain moving backward.

Hiro dropped to the ground on one knee, free.

“Hiro are you alright?” Ten asked worriedly.

“Yes,” Hiro said forcing his body to stand, he turned to Ten.

“I thought I lost you there”

Ten grinned.

“You won’t that easy… I won’t give up on humanity because there’s still hope, I will keep fighting because that’s what we do!”

Hiro smiled.

“Your wounds?” Ten said seeing all the multiple plunge holes and blood.

“Healing… but very slowly, all the blood his rushed to my head, I’m hardly feeling them,” he said facing Kenta with furious eyes. The only thing he would feel is when he gives Kenta a satisfying punch.

Ten knew it was the adrenaline speaking, a body moving on his own goal to survive, Ten smiled because he was in the same state too.

“Yeah me too” he turned to Kenta, no longer feeling the pain at his side.

“Not until we knock some sense into him” he add as both their bio-genetics eyes beamed dangerously.

Kenta growled at their words, were they serious about to come at him in their condition?

“What do you say Ten…” Hiro said slamming his fist against his palm.

“Let’s give him some serious beating!”

“You got it!” Ten yelled all fired up.

“Fools! you don’t have your blood weapon, you can’t kill me, in your state you’re against the odds!” Kenta yelled as his one bio-genetics eyes beamed a dangerous crimson.

They were crazy if they thought they had the upper hand here, they were foolish to want to keep fighting.

“Think again!” Hiro yelled.

“We’re trained soldiers!”

“That’s right!” Ten yelled.

“SHUT UP!” Kenta shouts, he had heard enough.

“DIE!”, he sent the tails at them.
