Stampede of footsteps beginning to rock the ground. Stumbling himself into a ground of students running the opposite direction from the cafeteria, no one seems to pay him any mind at all. Covered in deep purple yet no one sees him, isn't it obvious. He's that monster killing person right here.
"Move aside, that monster killing beast!! Is coming!!" some kid yelled out in the crowd. The rude comment didn't really bother him that much, he come to it. What shakes him the most were the blood covered across them." Josh Ash" Hino questioned himself "Are they there?".
Sound seem to become blurry, in his head he couldn't hear a thing-just white noise, just little nonsense around him. His foot taps against the blood floor with everyone around him ignoring and moving pass him as Hino stood there. His heart echoes out a beat ,"This is strange. Why do I feel like this?" .
"Why am I thinking? I should just go."
"What if I run?"
"No. What about Josh and Ash?"
"If I run, would they survive?"
"What if their already dead?"
"Screw it"
Strapping the chainsaw on his back, he charges-running pass crowds of student and teacher, even jostling a few against the wall." Out! Out! Out!" he yells "Coming through!". Taking a left then right towards the next hallway. Beneath his feet, he felt something shake before the wooden floor tiles burst over into splinter with a slender peach-colored hand rising from it.
In the shape of a nude women-lacking the features. Long slender limbs, a skirt of tentacles around her waist and a familiar face. "Fauna?" Hino perplexed. "Good eyes" she responded with piercing red eyes. Her head nearly probed the ceiling as she rises up to her full length. Eight feet, Hino guess.
"I am gonna kill you now" she spoked with her face slowly unfolding like the petals of a flower in a mouth with line of needle like teeth decorated around. Her red eyes sprouting out their sockets, leaving her similar to those of hammerhead sharks. "You can't hide now. I have the vision here" she laughs-her organic-like skirt whipping around the area, leaving injure students and damage structures.
"Fuck your vision" Hino shouts "I have a chainsaw"
"Your the one to talk" she spoke finally taking notice of him. "Your seem to lack strength for such a rumor " Fauna mockingly questions, her head bend to the side as her glowing eyes peered at him in a devious looks with her flower shaped mouth mimicking a smile. "You must have quite the luck I see". "Well that ends here-all luck ends with me, right here". Raising her longs arms on either side of her body, in total pride "As I the right-hand lady to Your greatness, shall end you now. For I would be her guardian to her new paradise- and together we shall..."
"Shut up!!!" he yells, throat itchy from all that yelling." I didn't ask".
Finger folding in a fist, quivering in frustration. "Your a rude one I see. DIE". Flooding the halls in a wave of tentacles ripping and tearing the floors and walls of this, to kill such an disrespectful runt. "Fear me" she spouted before whipping him through a class.
There's no time to recover, he still has two broken fingers, now worsen in state after punching someone in the face. Without a chance to breath, Hino managing to stay in pieces for another minute, thanks to the chainsaw taking in the impact with-bursting out into the field of his school. With Fauna stepping out into the sun for another round. Her eyes gleeful as she arrives.
A few blocks over another wall burst open with a similar slender figure rising out the dust. "Lana?" Fauna asked surprised to see her in full form. "Yes" she responded. "Great now there's two of them" Hino whispered to himself with dirt still in his mouth.
Another slender figure like Fauna now with a ring of finger wrapped around her neck like some decorative scarf, adorn with oversize palm and thin slender claws. Her eyes weren't visible but Hino feels their just hiding somewhere around her body. Face eyeless with her other sensory organs remaining. "Lets go/kill him" they said in unison.
"Wait wait hold on time out time out" Hino objects with his hands placed in the shape of a T. "Wait this ain't fair. Two against one?"
"Who bloody cares"
"He's right" Lana corrects Fauna leaving her flabbergasted and lost for words. "This ain't a fair fight"
"I know right" Hino's agree. "Are you move insane!!" Fauna complains "Your both think this is some fucking game. Your both insane"

"Shut it" Hino and Lana spoked. "Err ok?" Fauna could only respond.
"Do you have any other chainsaw lying around?" Hino shakes his head. "Will a shovel do?" Hino nods in response.
"Fauna pass him a shovel, will you?"
"Why don't you do it?"
"My palms are to large"
"Fine..."
Now with a shovel he's ready to go.
Dashing forward with incredible speed managing to land a slash on Hino before dodging Hino's strikes. Immediately she her mouth pouts before spitting a fountain worth of acid towards Hino.
"Huh not dead yet?" she sighs seeing a still standing Hino smiling at her. Fauna strikes, sending waves of tentacles in his direction with a new dose of acid comes flying.
Between the clash only two things manage to survive, both now flying into each of their directions. The shovel pierced Lana's throat leaving on the ground choking from it, the chainsaw on the other hand came spinning forward in the air, landing in between Fauna's two eye, permanently stucked-the chains and flesh clinging to one another.
Out the dust, Hino charges pulling himself up from with Fauna's tentacles, up her chest reaching for the handle as the engines roars.
BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Falling on the ground, breathless with the now halved Fauna splitting to two sides before breaking apart on the ground. "Looks like you cut me a bit" Hino admits referring to the gash on the side of his stomach. Bleugh.... he coughs up a bit of blood on the ground, kneeling on the ground his chest hurts as he notices the weakness in his right hand. "Can't last long" he imagine, he needs to be quick now. "I don't wanna die"
"Damn" she said, choking with every word she says. "Damn" she tried reaching for the shovel, her fingers too thin to pull. "Damn. Looks like you and I are about to die too."
Staring at her as she smiles back at him. Nothing malicious or life threatening just a genuine smile, like Emily's. Oh Emily? He nearly forgotten about Emily, oh right he killed Emily. He chuckles for a bit, a tear flowing down his eye. Then he laughs, "I don't have that kind of thinking"- with more blood dripping off his lips.
"No one is dying today" Nana spoked walking out the entrance hall, tainted red head to toe, with a single tear running down her left cheek. "I've killed something I love" he spoked-extending one of her finger straight through Lana's head. "I ain't in a great mood, to deal with you-so be it"
"Tell me what did you lose?" she asked. "Amuse me as I kill you right here"
......
A while now. A little boy used to cry every time in the dead of night. No one was really sure who but many suspect to be the resident living in room 12-13.
Rumors said that before that boy started to howl in tears, he smiles alot back then. Was it that major tsunami or that typhon that hit here? No one could recall which was it, but the same feelings remain in all.
A great river festival was being held back then, back when it was quiet. People should have scene the signs-maybe more people would have survived then. The crickets chirp only eleven times before pausing for awhile then again eleven more times. Crows seem to circle across everyone at the festival, staying far above the water as they could. A boy and his family where one of these guest, sitting so close to the shore for the annual river show with all sorts of entertainments. Dancers on large floating platforms for all to watch or even fantasy plays with the children cheering on for the hero to win against the evil that stand in his way. Too the prayer ceremonies and finally the release of paper boats into the waters.
Pink, white, blue ,green all the color of boats floating being release out. Cheers and laughter then water begins to bubble up, then the water rose upwards, reaching up towards everyone. There within the water a single image ripples across the surface of the river, a single eye stares at all of them. Maroon in color just looking at all of them as the water fills with murky substance as it rises above everyone.
Evacuation sirens blare with the river rising higher and higher, swirling and wrapping itself around those to slow to escape.
Held in the arms of his parents, the boy could only watch as childhood friends and others a like all envelope in living waters, their body floating in its murky dept before vanishing within it.
The weather changed also, the clouds swallowed the sun-for a temporary moment the river retreats quivering behind the banks.
What wasn't clear about this rumor were what happen to the parents. Whats guaranteed was the boy was the only survivor of their family. No one knows whats behind them causes, the walking wind or the living ocean, both plausible but not proven.
That was a decade ago now. Currently no known disaster had occurred but surviving victims could still hear their distinct laughter. Whether it be the flow of a stream or river, a light gust of wind blowing by or even the sounds from a house fan or sink. Somehow they never left.
......
Down old alley ways, the only sign of life around here were the rats, savaging around for any scraps left. Her forehead bleed, one hand pressed against her side as she stumbles-needing to cling against a wall for support.
"Taken to long" she weakly spoked before coughing up more blood. "Not enough time, but I won" she continued to move her way towards the road. Maybe she could hop on a car and escape.
Behind her someone stood behind her. She couldn't see who but its not him, standing tall over her before walking away from her.
"Huh?" she spoke before abruptly collapsing to the ground. Unable her limb, her eye looks about-nothing in sight, there's no pain, only white noise from cars to other bustling activities in this place. "How pathetic of a way" she thought-dying in a alley just like that without getting to see who killed her. "How shameful"
She could hear sirens making their way towards the school, she wonders how that would be. Never mind that, she could barely care-its obvious she's bleeding out right now. "How could I not see it?" she whispered with blood dripping from her mouth.
