[William Aroa's POV]
-BOOM!!!
-BOOM!!
-BOOM!!
-BOOM!!
-BOOM!!!
Eyes wide open, I looked at the destruction that followed all over the place. I could hear the rapid sound of punching as my brother and that strong monster fought all throughout the place.
I looked on at the fight… I could barely make out their afterimages… even after gaining all these powers… I could barely make out their afterimages.
'Just what is… this fight?' I observed the whole thing. I couldn't help but recall what happened before the apocalypse. How my brother was lying on the bed all helpless by himself.
'Is there any special power up for those who have AIDS?' I questioned before a wry expression ford on my face,'that is too nonsensical even for .'
But still…
When the whole apocalypse descended upon us, there were only 3 people that I was worried about in this whole scenario. Mother, father and brother.
Even among them, I was most scared about what would happen to my brother. Especially given his sickness and all. Deep down I had even accepted his death and thought about finding dad and mom first.
'The only thing that made believe that he was alive was pure hope,' I recalled, as I rembered when I first saw my brother with all those people around. I was insanely happy back then but given the situation, I was more vigilant about it, so I didn't show it.
As any normal person would think, I believed it was the people around my brother who saved him. Especially Miss Myla and Miss Caroline. I was going to help them out later to return the favor they have done on .
'But it wasn't the case at all…' I chuckled on the inside as I recalled how my brother killed that zombie, which I was struggling with for the past few days.
["We don't have ti to waste on small things. Let's go."]
I recalled how my brother spoke as if he just squashed a fly or sothing.
'That was so COOL!!!' I smiled as my eyes glistened just recalling that scene. Even now, it sends a chill down my spine. How did he even do that?
'I am glad,' I smiled with slight relief. With my brother being this strong, I don't need to be worried about anything at all. After mom, he was the one who always took charge of what goes in the house and whatnot.
My eyes then looked at the note that my brother passed .
"Find a way to take control of all the energies around," I read it out loud before scanning around. After fighting and winning against that strange energy that was trying to take care of , I can now sense another form of energy around this area.
It was the sa creepy energy, but now… it felt a bit more familiar than before. It felt welcoming.
"Phewwwww!!" I took a deep breath before I cald down and closed my eyes and traced where the energy was coming from.
It was like a gas that spread around in patches. Sowhere it was less, other places it was collected more.
-BOOM!!
-BOOM!!
-BOOM!!
Brother and that monster were still fighting. The fact that I haven't even been touched even once must an that my brother is winning. A sort of proud feeling ca into my mind before I concentrated even more and focused… focused on the area around and then…
'There!' I thought as I sensed the area where the gas-like energy was more than the others. It wasn't in this room, but in the next room. Behind that wall.
Moving towards that wall in a flash
-BOOOM!!!!
I punched it with all my power before another big room as large as this herbarium greeted . That eerily creepy energy was most concentrated here and even though I could feel so connection to it, this huge amount was suffocating .
A slightly nervous smile appeared on my face as I took a deep breath and jumped in again. Taking in the energy, I began absorbing every bit of energy present around. It was honestly painful, as if my skin was burning and that burning sensation was penetrating through my pores.
'But this is nothing,' I thought as I began recalling what my brother had been through… I can take more than that, or I couldn't even call myself the brother of Michael Aroa.
Brother's past… I would rather not recall that.
Changing my focus, I began absorbing more and more of the energy around. While it was painful in the beginning, soon I began feeling a bit more energetic than before. I could absorb it faster, make this energy mine, even control bits of it around my body.
The core of the energy was on the other side of the area and, walking one step at a ti as I absorbed the energy, I finally found the place where the core was.
It was a big greenish red core with branches covering the core from all over the place. I could feel that core radiating that energy in a rapid fashion as even the dead plants around the area were moving and twitching a little with that energy falling on their body.
-SCREECH!!!!
I heard a loud screeching noise that ca from behind and, sensing an attack coming at , I imdiately dashed to the side. Dodging that attack, I found a zombie covered in plants that ca out of nowhere.
For a second I was scared, but then I focused and found out that,
'They are weaker than the one brother is fighting.'
Sighing in relief
-Dash!
-BOOM!!!!
I punched those zombies with all my might. Pushing it as far as I could before
-Thud!
-Thud!
-Thud!
-Thud!
More zombies began falling all around . My eyes darted upwards as I saw about a dozen more zombies falling from the broken ceiling down here and observing it carefully, more are going to co.
'This bastard,' I cursed before
-BOOM!!!
Punching the nearest zombie as hard as I could before moving towards the core. However, before I could do so, another zombie interfered in between and stopped my advancent.
-BOOM!!!
Kicking him away, I ran towards the core and gulped before beginning to absorb it too, but…
'Huh?' I felt a sudden pressure on . I imdiately let go of that core. I felt like my life force was about to be sucked by that core.
'What now?... Okay… can't take it… let's break it,' I decided as I then rushed towards it again. The zombies had almost surrounded , but I was still fast enough to dodge them and reach the core and
-BOOOM!!!!
Punched the core with all my power. Though… sadly, there was not even a single scratch on it. Not wasting anyti,
-BOOM!
-BOOM!!!
-BOOM!!
I began punching more and more. Though after I was done with more than a dozen punches, I still couldn't find any scratch on it.
Irritation appeared on my face as I looked at the zombies, almost reaching and with a fierce glare I shouted at them
"AAAAAA!!!!"
-BOOOM!!!
I punched one of the zombies so hard that it flew, breaking the wall and reaching the other side before it lost its consciousness. Then, after that, I glared at the other zombies and began punching them as well.
After going on for another few seconds
"Oi! Stop acting like a wild animal, will you?" I heard a familiar voice as a figure walked into the room where the giant reddish green core was. There was a body on his shoulders, which he carried with him.
"Brother!" I spoke with a refreshed smile as I looked at my brother carrying that zombie over his shoulders.
