Zain wasn't so much of an idiot that he never thought that this would happen. The closer they were to the base of the Zombie Hunters, the more likely they were to run into the group. However, travelling with other humans and in the state he was in now, at a first glance no one would guess that he was a zombie like the last ti.
'I guess, we can see if all of these people from the Zombie Hunters group have those special abilities like last ti, or if it was just a one off.'
The group of people leaving the supermarket were five in total. They all seed to be talking to each other with ease, and with big grins on their faces. A rare occurrence when running into soone in this new world.
'If all five of them have abilities, will I be able to deal with them?' Zain thought. 'I was lucky the last ti that the other one let escape, but I don't think everyone from the Zombie Hunters will be like that.'
The Zombie Hunters were so nonchalant about everything that they hadn't even realised that there was a group of people right in front of their eyes.
"Hey, are you seeing what I'm seeing?" Nit asked.
The atmosphere was strangely quite tense, and unlike Zain thought, there weren't bright smiles on the faces of the Wild Bones, instead they were all holding their weapons in their hands rather tightly.
"Yeah… to think that we would run into them again, of all people." Dali said, as he moved his brother so he was standing directly behind him.
Finally, after walking out a few steps, the one in front of the others, who had a fairly square like fra and bright pink hair, had noticed the others.
"Look at this!" The Zombie Hunter declared, as he started to laugh hysterically and soon when the others saw who were in front of them they started to laugh as well. "If it isn't Dali and his gang of misfits."
"Crunk." Dali said under his breath while clenching his fist, but he soon shook his head, the situation wasn't the sa as what it was before. Things were different now.
"Who is this guy?" Zain asked, standing next to Nit. Based on the tension, it felt like any second a fight was going to break out between these two, so he wanted to at least know so context.
"Crunk was the leader of the Oil Burners, our two high school gangs used to go up against each other all the ti." Nit explained. "There was a big clash at the end of the year, and in the end we won the war. The deal was that the other gang would disband after the fight.
"But of course, soone like Crunk would never accept the outco, and ever since then, he had been attacking mbers of our school here and there. To put it simple, there is a lot of bad blood between Dali and Crunk."
Zain could only imagine how the Wild Bones were feeling right now. They had been fighting endlessly with a goal in mind to join the Zombie Hunters. Perhaps after joining such a group, they thought they would be able to rest for a while.
After all that, they then find out the very group that they wanted to join already had mbers of a rival gang. In this type of situation, Zain was wondering what he would do, and wondered if the Dali would make the right choice for his group.
"Crunk!" Dali called out. "We should forget about what happened in the past between us two. Right now, people are dying left and right. A lot of my classmates died. This is nothing like our petty little fights that we had in school… I don't even have my parents anymore."
When Dali shouted these words, they were coming from deep within, his voice cracked a little, and everyone who was angry at seeing these people in front of them, that were in the Wild Bones, lost the will to fight at that mont.
They too were tired, extrely tired, and had lost too much.
'He made the right choice. To forget about the past, and move on, especially if they are now with the group known as the Zombie Hunters.' Zain thought, but there was a big BUT on his mind.
"Hahaha." Crunk started to laugh. "This is not the Dali I know. You're giving up, without even trying to fight. Oh, how the great have fallen."
This was Zain's worry, because now that the other, who had felt resentnt this entire ti, had power… power to defeat the other, they wouldn't let this chance slip them up.
"Let take a guess as to why you're all the way out here, away from that kingdom of yours." Crunk said. "You heard about the Zombie Hunters right? So you ca wishing to join them. Well, too bad for you.
"You see, they only let a certain type of people into the Zombie Hunters organisation. Special people like . I was chosen by the gods you see, chosen to thrive in this new world, as for you, you are nothing in this world.
"Oh, how I wished you would have charged in like before, trying to defeat , but I guess this will have to do."
Crunk started to twiddle his finger and it began to glow red. That's when Dali realised when looking at the zombies, all of them had strange holes in their heads, one that didn't look to have been made from bullets.
'The Zombie Hunters are people with special abilities. I should have known that Crunk would have one, but why him… why him and not !!' Dali thought.
Out from his finger, a beam of energy left, heading straight for Dali's head, it looked like a laser bullet. Dali lifted his hand but the smile on Crunk's face told him it would be useless.
Right in front of Dali's face a large black machete was placed in front of it. The laser hit it clean on its side, and disappeared, doing nothing. Crunk's eyes, seeing this, opened up.
"I… like you." Zain said, holding the Titan sword. "Let add you to my collection."
