Chapter 17: Chapter-17<*Meeting*>
A few hours had passed and the Humby was now moving through the empty streets of the east side of the city. The group had crossed the river and were now heading towards Takashi and Rei's houses.
"This place reminds me of the Academy parking lot" - Kohta said with a frown. The reason for saying this was because this area was just as quiet as the school parking lot.
"The less of those things we see, the better"-Takashi said as he breathed a sigh of relief. He had the mentality that if those things weren't near this area, it meant that it was safe and by default, his mother and Rei's mother would also be safe.
"It's not to be pessimistic but it's better that we don't sing victory until we meet their mothers"-Miku said as he looked around seriously.
"I know"-Rei said as she shook her head.
The group continued to advance carefully but the streets
They were completely silent.
"Strange... at least there should be sounds of life in the surroundings" - Saya said with a frown - "At least it won't be long before we arrive"
Takashi and Rei just bit their lips as they hoped with all their might that their mothers were okay.
"Where is it?" Shizuka asked curiously.
"Here turn left and go straight" - Takashi said - "When we are close we will let you know"
"Hai-Hai-!" Shizuka nodded with a smile on her face of him
"I still can't believe you had sex with her" - Takashi said quietly but it was still loud enough for the others to hear, after all, they were squeezed inside the Humby.
"..."-Cloud just kept silent while he felt the silent look that Saeko, Saya, Miku and Rei were giving him, but also the discreet look that he was giving Kyoko. He was surprised by the latter as he never thought she would be interested in him.
"Here it is!" Takashi exclaimed when he saw that they had arrived at his house. The girls decided to leave the conversation with the blonde for later because they knew it was not the right time. Cloud on the other hand, heaved a sigh of relief to see what he had been saved from.
"Come on Takashi"-said the blonde as he looked at his friend, who nodded firmly. The two got out of the Humby from the roof and knocked on the door of the house.
Takashi was nervous because he honestly didn't know if mother was still in his home but after a few seconds, he relaxed when he heard a familiar voice- "Yes?"
"Okaasan!" Takashi exclaimed as he hugged his mother tightly.
"Takashi-chan?!" - exclaimed the woman happily - "No!
you know how worried she was!"
Cloud just smiled when he saw this but quickly calmed down. Calmly, he walked back to the Humby and briefed the others on the situation. They were happy to see that the woman was safe, now it only remained to investigate if Rei's mother was still in the area - "Come on Rei"
"Ok" agreed the brunette as he walked towards his house, which was not far away next to the blonde. She was nervous but quickly calmed down because she knew her mother knew how to protect herself.
The two did not take long to arrive at the place but when they knocked on the door, no one answered even though they waited a few minutes. Rei was devastated but she quickly took the key to her house and opened the door. She investigated all around until she found a note. Carefully, she picked it up and began to read it, only to see that it was nothing more than a letter from her own mother.
'Rei... I am confident that you will be the person to take this card because I know that just like me, you are a strong woman who knows how to take care of herself. I know that right now you have to be worried about me, after all, the world has gone crazy in just a few hours.
I don't know how all this started but according to your father, who was informed by the high command of the military forces, this virus is not only in this city but also in a large part of Japan... I couldn't tell you if it is like that in others as well. countries, although I do not find it relevant to know. Right now I'm on my way to meet your father because I feel like that idiot needs all the help he can get...although I guess by now you must be wondering why I didn't go looking for you first...well the answer is simple. .. towards where I am going, the situation is much worse because according to your father, it was in that area where everything began. I couldn't afford to put you in that kind of grave danger, which even I don't know if I can survive, that's why I didn't meet with you. I'm not too worried about you either, since I know that Cloud-kun and Takashi-kun will help you through this situation, especially that blonde boy... believe me, I know when I see someone strong, I wasn't a Karate champion when I was there for nothing. I was a student your age... Whoops, I think I'm getting a bit off topic... Anyway, I just want to ask you to be safe and please don't do anything stupid or reckless... I'm already doing that for both... and finally, go to the Takagi's... I'm sure Souichiro will have already created a stable society, he has the strength and the necessary knowledge to create a good group to resist this shitty situation. Survive, daughter... I hope to see you soon... Your mother, Kiriko Miyamoto.
PS: Use protection because I don't want grandchildren so soon, although I wouldn't mind if they were blonde with brown eyes, if you know what I mean~'
"~"-Rei just blushed when she read the last while she cursed at her mother but at least now she knew where she was. She was still worried but knowing that she was okay took a weight off her shoulders.
"Did you find something?" Cloud asked as he gave the brown-haired girl a look.
"Yes...she went to Tousan"-Rei said as she shook her head.
"Hmm... I guess we'll have to go to Souichiro first and then we'll see how to contact your parents" -
Cloud said as he analyzed the situation a bit more.
"At least we managed to find Kaede-san"-the brown-haired girl sighed as she gave the blond boy a look-"Let's go back, we better get going"
"Don't you want to take anything?" - asked Cloud while
he looked around. "I don't have anything important that I want to take with me"-she denied the girl but she quickly remembered something-"Wait, I think I can take something
"Ok, I'll be waiting for you outside"-Cloud agreed as he walked towards the entrance of the house.
Rei quickly ran to her room and grabbed a small backpack where she kept her most provocative and sexy clothes. If she was going to fight, then she needed the weapons necessary for battle.

The group was traveling in the Humby again, although now they were a little tighter.
"I think this would be the perfect time to use the bike…" Takashi said as the others nodded.
"Ok... who wants"-Cloud said but before he could continue, Saeko interrupted him-"I'll gladly go with you"
The girls just clicked their tongues but didn't say anything about it.
"You're still as popular as ever, Cloud-kun" - Kaede said with a smile.
Cloud just smiled in response but didn't say anything else. He and Saeko got out of the vehicle and carefully took the motorcycle.
"You know how to drive?" Saeko asked curiously.
"Yes"-the blond nodded simply as a smile appeared on his face. Now he was wondering if there was any passive that would increase his mastery of piloting vehicles-"Let's continue"
"Hai!" exclaimed Shizuka.
---
The group continued on their way. There were only a few minutes left to reach the area where Souichiro's forces were most concentrated, but to his surprise, zombies began to appear in the place.
"I think it's time for us to go to work"-Cloud said as he took his two-handed sword and Saeko took out her Bokken-"Kohta, you know what to do"
"You don't have to say it twice"-the boy with glasses smiled as he took the gun from him.
"Advance!" - exclaimed the blonde as both he and Shizuka accelerated - "Remember, only kill the zombies that are close!"
"Okay!" - exclaimed the boys.
"Hey, fat man!" Saya yelled as she grabbed a gun "I want you to teach me how to use one of these things!"
"It's simple... take the safety off, aim and shoot..." - Kohta said without caring how the girl had insulted him - "Aim about 5 centimeters lower than where you really want to aim, because since you're a rookie, the recoil of the weapon will cause you to miss more than normal"
"Ok" - agreed the pink-haired girl.
Miku wanted to grab a weapon but she didn't have the courage to do so, so she decided to put those thoughts aside and concentrate completely on the surroundings in case of that something looked out of the 'normal'.
"Takashi, protect those inside if those things get too close" - ordered the blonde.
"You don't need to tell me twice"-Takashi replied as he nodded firmly. It really wasn't necessary, after all, inside the Humby were not only his friends, but also his girlfriend and his mother.
." - Kaede was surprised at the others' attitude but "..." - she quickly calmed down, after all, they were fighting not only to protect themselves, but also to survive.
