Above the school roof. The sun blazing down on everyone working hard on the roof tops new flooring and the installment of a school green house for the students. To the workers its a worthy sacrifice for those kids, recent days had been rough on everyone. Higher monster attacks and now with that supposed rumor of this figure that kill other monsters and humans alike, time has been way scarier lately.

"Hey Aaron, watch for the tools and everything over there. Make sure not to let anything drop down there." Thats what his boss told him before him and a few others head for a smoke-with him working on the green house. He wasn't sure how but possibly an accidental push in order for him to reach for something else or it was just that. Coincidence.

The chainsaw fell but shouldn't be an issue, peeking down a little, it was empty and the coast is clear-plus its not that important, there's a spare chainsaw. "It'll be fine" he says, promising himself he would retrieve it later before anyone notices, especially his boss.

Back to work for him it is.

.....

Down the stair they when, taking a left turn into the hall then a right into the entrance of the cafeteria hall.

Familiar faces were everywhere with also the entire school students and staff all stationed here. In the sea of nervous faces, Hino notices a few odd one-" Ahh you! Nana!" he realize, the same girl making up with his teacher from earlier now standing cross legged on one the lunch tables, both arms wrap around a dead faculties shoulder. Their faces pale and droopy with a hole in their foreheads.

Nana didn't react. Her girls did. Fauna and Luna both grabbing him on either sides before pushing Hino down against the floor towards Nana. The rest of the students held hostage could only watch in pity and fear for themselves. "Never disrespect the new Evol of greatness " both in unison.

Wa-what? Evol? greatness?

"Evolution of greatness" Nana clarified. "I am the better of your species".

"She's crazy too?" Hino thinks "What wrong with everyone else, she clearly just a person" he questioned himself.

fwoosh.... A student dropped dead followed by panic gasp by everyone, even Hino felt petrified there he noticed a tendril slithering in the air with a sharp point on its end and the other end connected to Nana's index finger. "She was looking at me the wrong way" she coldly remarks.

"Shit" This is obviously not good for him or anyone right now, scanning the crowd managing to find some of his classmates, Ash , Josh and surviving teachers. Further more he counted up to a total of six girls on standby including Emily, all standing above everyone else with menacing intent in their eyes?

Accept for Emily's, all their eyes including Nana's all looking flat without a pupil, instead taking its place was an odd flower shape-like spiral resting in each of them.

"Emily must be human then" he concluded but what now, he doesn't plan on getting killed.

"Your greatness" Fauna asked "May we remove this disrespectful runt here?"

With a finger over her lips, Nana sat there silent-contemplating Hino's fate while her eyes all move in varies different directions like some sort of chameleon.

I volunteer!!

"Emily?" Hino thought "Is she going to take my place?"

I volunteer on the execution on this runt

"Shit"

"I absolutely disagree. Your greatness please allow me."

Nana still silent. One hand covering over her mouth as to hide her laughter the other squeezing tightly against the neck of one corpses-trying to break it but not to. "Emily you go....Prove me".

"Hey hey I didn't agree to-"

"Shut up you sick child!" she yells before kicking Hino in the face, stepping over his chest with the knife floating right above his forehead. "I'll kill you"

.....

Swinging a leg into his gut, a fist straight to the jaw and another at the shin. Laying in the grass outside the school ground, no one would find him over here, the only way out would be that door standing right behind Emily.

"I'll be watching" Fauna scoffs. "Lost lost, get lost" Emily swinging her knife around the air before pointing it towards Fauna before chuckling.

Leaving the door locked behind them. Now its only the two of them, Hino needs a quick plan now-with both his hands gaged together, his body swallowed over by Emily's shadow as she stood way above him.

fwoosh...

Huh? His wrist feels light and less constraint, Hino confused without any injury or cuts on him. Just bewildered by the teary eyes on Emily leaving her fallen against the grass with the knife still held towards him.

I just want some friends......I don't wanna die.......but Nana dies, I'll be screwed, Ok.

I feel lonely.....I just can't kill ok

Do you understand that!!

What was he supposed to feel or do? There's his classmate right there kneeling in front of him- still her hands shaking, pointing the knife straight towards him. The look in her eyes filled with guilt while fighting her own insecurities.

"you good there?" He wonders what was he supposed to say, its obvious that she's more troubled then him. Is it his right to pity her?

"Hey you could always lie to the whole school" he chimes in her crying episode. "Really?" eyes red from all the hand rubbing around her face. "Yeah pretty much. I mean your a real person-plus if it works you could actually look like some kind of hero" he adds on, feeling this immense awkwardness with every word spoken.

"Hey you know I have a little experience with monster " Hino add rubbing against the back of his neck. "Maybe I could help?"

Are like friends?

Sort of....

Oh that's great , she spoked. For once she sounded like a real person, suddenly a few words had dropped inside his thoughts

"I want to protect her". He smiles , looking up towards the sunny skies with this feeling of hope in him. Maybe after this is all over, it would feel wonderful. There's even a dreamy picture of it would all go down in his mind.

From ambushing Nana and her girls leading to some heroic stand off that ends in victory, with he and Emily fighting side by side and finally the praises. All the praises anyone could get. Its not something he's sort of into but that would still feel great.

Gathering close with a plan forming in their mind. Fauna and Lana are the main duo so the plan was set to divide them, Tina should be near the hallway closed by to the door their at, so she's first to be picked off and finally Rana patrol around the upper floors.

Tina first, both saying in unison. "I'll distract her over and you go behind with the knife" She spouts with a little confident "I just need to lure her in". "This feel exciting" he thinks, way more better then the previous other times, now there's really someone to be with.

"Hey Hino" in a shy tone. "Do you think...we could make?"

"If we believe in ourselves then nothing could stop us. Its like eating a vegetable" he respond "the moment you convince yourself that it ain't bitter the more you would eat" smiling at her.

She smiles. "Thank god, what a relief"

Hino smiles "Yeah me to-"

"Wait Emily you you lo-ok.....WHAT FUCKING THE FUCK!!!!"

Distraught. Covered in blood, bits of flesh and pieces of broken bones. Laid against the sheet of grass, so desperately trying to crawl away from whats in front. A single eye laid bare closed by the other one squish into wet substance beneath his shoe.

The taste was in his mouth, gaging at it before spitting a tooth out. Pupil's shaken, he needed to puke but he couldn't there's to much of a mess here right now. Arms and legs dangling freely, she was still perfectly in one complete piece. Only her head and everything was mutilated, tuffs of her hair were still around, parts of her lips ,ears, nose ,brain and everything.

The cause of it? Just sitting there, untouched by nature. Her blood covering across its blade.

Standing above his once classmate, now in a much worst sight then he ever witness first hand. Tears started to pour out from his eyes along with his hands shaking, hesitant to pick up the chainsaw that just killed his so called friend.

It much worst then any of those people he laid a top on because atleast does people were almost completely gone , their just flesh blobs now. But Emily! she still looks like goddamn Emily! Her head below all intact but her face now just torn apart but if you press or put them together, she still would like Emily. She looks to alive.

WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS?!!!!!

WHY WHY WHY

SHE LOOKS LIKE EMILY!!!!! he cries out rubbing off his tears and the blood on his face.

WHAT KIND OF FUCKING CURSE IS THIS!!!!!!!!!

.....

Tension rose within the cafeteria, Hino was about to get killed by Emily and no one could do anything about it. Fauna and Lana had started picking off a few the hostages. There they heard a loud cry echoing the halls.

"What the-" they spoked in unison. Its clear everyone heard it, its not in their imaginations-everyone heard it.

"A strange presence has made arrival" Nana spoked busy focusing on playing with the jaws of her dead companions. "Girls get Rana and Tina on it"

"Yes!! your greatness"

"Good" she said. "It smells familiar"

.......

A corner from the hallway, there was a sudden crash outside behind the door Emily was busy at. Zooming over towards the door with the sound of metal rubbing against and engine, before a loud heartbeat like roar could be heard-repetitively echoing from the other side of it.

"Maybe I should come closer" Tina told herself-reach her ears towards the door as it slams opened.

Dazed with something hard sticking through her- the end of this object, a bloodied kid with tears in his eyes. "Why so sad?" she whispered to this guy, he looks hurt to her and that deserves pity.

"i killed emily" he whispered before revving the engine up once again.

"i killed emily" he repeats again standing over someone but who even was that?
