Chapter 249: There’s Always Soone
"It hurts to be alone and abandoned, it hurt that things die and have to be taken away from you, it hurts so much that you wanna drive to the darkness..."
A tear fell from one of Kenta’s eyes.
"...but when you realize you don’t have to be alone..."
Kenta thought about Kashi who always smiled at him and said they were friends, the image burned away.
"...You can’t completely be alone and there soone, there’s always soone who wanna be there for you, that’s the light, Kenta"
Kenta chuckled lightly, but the humor died in it.
"I-I-I s-see" he choked as his eyes slowly close.
’There’s always soone huh?’ he thought as darkness took him.
’Kimura Hiro...’ a smile pressed against his lips, as the tears fell on their own accord.
’My sins cannot be forgiven either can I find peace... soone like
will never have soone...’
Death took him.

Kenta knelt in a white background, flowers around him but they were black, his brown eyes fixed on them, the unknown breeze carried his hair weightlessly.
’All my life I have never been accepted’ he began as he hung his head in sha.
’My job was my only salvation..’ he closed his eyes.
’Maybe this is better after all the cruel things I have done, to die alone’
Unknown to him soone walked towards him.
’I was born and abandoned by my parents, no one with
from the beginning and also the end’ he chuckled to himself, but there wasn’t the slightest humor to it.
’Can’t be helped can it?’
The white background slowly turned black.
’It’s better this way’ he smiled.
Soone stops in front of him, at the sound he slowly opened his eyes.
’Who?’ he thought with trembling eyes as he slowly raised his head eting with misty grey eyes.
"K-Kashi," he said stunned.
Kashi grinned.
"What are you doing here feeling os down, man, it’s not good," he said in amusent.
Kenta’s eyes continuously tremble.
"You were always a loner" he joked.
"I have told you many things you can’t always push soone away because of work, it ain’t healthy," he said with a sigh.
"W-Why?" Kenta began as his lips quivered, his eyes circled in tears.
"Hey don’t cry on !" Kashi yelled with white eyes but the sighed before smiling.
"Alright co on let’s go," he said stretching his hand out for him.
"W-Why Kashi?" he cried.
"Hmm?"
"Why wait for soone like , like co to soone like , you were a friend to
but I never accepted that, I was an to you, I destroyed your humanity because of so silly voice in my head" he cried bending his head down as the tears spilled from the corner of his eyes, the pain in his chest becoming unbearable.
"I hurt you... I hurt a lot of people... I..." his fist tighten against his lap.
"I TURNED YOU INTO A MONSTER!" he shouts raising his head taking harsh breaths.
Kashi squats in front of him, he froze when he placed a hand on his shoulder, a smile still present on his lips but his eyes are sad for him.
"It was really hard for you wasn’t it?"
Kenta’s eyes trembled at his words.
"Kashi"
"It’s alright Kenta"
"Why, why don’t you hate , why"
"Because Kenta, you’re my friend and friends always have each other back and I forgive you Kenta because I know you never ant for all this to happen, you were scared and alone, I wish I was a better friend, I wish I was there for you in your darkest tis"
The tears slide down Kenta’s cheeks uncontrollably.
’...You can’t completely be alone and there’s soone, there’s always soone who wanna be there for you, that’s the light, Kenta’
He rembered Hiro’s words, he cried the more in pain.
"I’m sorry Kashi, I’m so so sorry" he cried and cried, chanting the word sorry over and over again, he didn’t care how long he would say it, he didn’t care if it was forever.
The background turned black, Instantly turned white along with the flowers.
"It’s alright Kenta," Kashi said as they slowly fade away.
Kenta cried and sobbed unable to control himself.
"It’s enough" he adds.
"It’s ti to rest, let’s go"
*
"He’s..." Hiro’s blind eyes trembled, he could feel it, he could sense the emotion coming from his weak aura that slowly fades.
"Smiling..."
There was a smile on Kenta’s lips as well as tears, his body slowly went up in steams like it was dissolving.

Entrance To Level 11
The rubbles blocking the entrance shook trendously, covered by a spider web energy.
Beads of sweat hung against Haya’s features, her hands spread out in front of her, the headset she wore beaming the brightest crimson.
"AAAAAAHHHHH" she gave a loud battle cry out using every bit of force she could muster to clear a path.
"Haya" Sakura said holding onto her so that she wouldn’t fall.
"Sakura, stay with Haya," Touka said, she nods.
"Let’s go Dr. Touka," Shino said, she nodded as they rushed in with the rest of the bio-genetics, they have been trying to get into this level after the mini-explosion, Haya was the only one who could open a path for them, it took everything in her power to do so because the path was deeply covered.
"Ten," Haya said worried weakly walking ahead.
"Haya wait!" Sakura yelled.

’Anzai, Hiro, Yuki, and Ten are in this level’ Touka thought with trembling eyes, she wondered what could have happened that caused the alarm to blow, it wasn’t another Outbreak so what was it then.
They ca to a halt when they got to where Hiro, Yuki, Ten, and Anzai were, their eyes went wide at the scene.
"What the hell happened here?" Mosu said stunned seeing the imnse destruction.
"Anzai!" Touka yelled rushing to his side, he was awake but he was in pain.
"Hiro, Ten, Yuki" Shino rushed to their side, they were leaning against the wall, unconscious and badly wounded.
"What happened?" Touka said with trembling eyes.
"Isn’t that Dr. Kenta?" Homura said with shaky eyes, staring at the dissolving corpse.
"He’s dead," Sumi said sternly, watching the kneeling corpse of Kenta dissolving, a rod piercing his chest.
"The Queen Kaiju" Anzai said weakly.
They froze at his words.
"It was her doing"

"I see, so Kenta was the one behind everything," Kiyoshi said sternly.
Anzai nodded, he was seated against the bed as Touka checked his drip.
"He was being manipulated by The Queen Kaiju, Hiro blew his cover and he resorted to violence, they tried to reach him but..." Anzai gave a heavy sigh.
"I had to take him down"
"I understand General Anzai and you did the right thing... now we know the Queen Kaiju will not be easy to deal with"
Anzai’s gaze fell on him.
"We will talk about our next step right after you recover" he states walking away.
The door shuts close.
"It’s rare to see him like this... not completely positive," Touka said.
Anzai turned his gaze to hers, she had dark looks.
"Touka"
"I thought I lost you" she began biting her lips.
"Seeing you lying there, with no chance of waking up, I was scared so scared, and then when I saw you on that floor, I-"
"Touka" he took her hand in his, her teary gaze fell on him.
He smiled.
"I’m gonna be okay, I can’t die that easily" he adds with a grin.
"It’s not funny!" she scolds.
"Alright alright" he raised his hands in surrender, but then he composed himself.
"There is sothing you should know" he began in a serious tone.
"I was..." he sighed.
"I was married before the black storm... she was the love of my life"
Touka looks saddened not because of what he said but where he was going with this.
"What happened to her Anzai?" she could guess but she didn’t want it to be true.
"Black storm happened," Anzai said sternly.
"We just found out she was gonna have a baby"
Touka’s eyes went wide as the shook took her.
"Ichika and I were gonna be parents and then..." his fist tighten against the sheets.
"The explosion happened, everything gone before I knew it I awoke in destruction, our house down, I searched for her, I called her na and then I heard a sound, I took my shotgun because I thought it was a threat and then I saw her, the pain she was going through as she transford, I didn’t understand what was happening, I wanted to go to her but I couldn’t, I just stood there watching as she..." his teeth clenched.
"As she turned into a monster and I.."
"Anzai" Touka told his hand, his weak gaze fell on her teary ones, she was crying for his sake.
She shakes her head negatively.
"You don’t have to say it"
His eyes trembled, he looked away.
"I will never be able to forgive myself... neither will I be able to move on"
