Chapter 4 - We Look, but We Don’t Move

Jun-lee sat down emotionless, with a Coke on his hand, looking

at the ceiling, spinning a pen. He looked at Seul-gi performing a surgery and

couldn't bear the look of the man's intestine falling out of his body, and the

image of his heart beating, with a twist of seeing one vein holding his left

eye. It was disgusting and terrible. Unfortunately, the coke reminded the

inside of his intestines and let's not say the view of him vomiting at the

bathroom was a good view. When he got out of the bathroom, Seul-gi was standing

outside, "Are you okay? You've been puking bad lately. Are you sensitive to bodies

that are in a severe shape?". Jun-lee lied saying no, because that could've saved the conversation. Jun-lee walked outside, seeing Xi. Xi was able to master at least five techniques, but the problem is that he had to go to America, because they had to recruit some people to join the S.A.I.D organization, because there were at least eight thousand people left in the United States. They also said the ringleader of the apocalypse goes by the name Judas. The A.I that started this bloodbath. Luckily, at least they would recruit the eight thousand people to join. The special division got in the plane, and Jun-lee continued work. Jun-lee had to toughen up, while Seul-gi was performing a surgery. Few hours later, Jun-lee and Seul-gi were leaving to go to their dorm together. All of a sudden, they felt a rumbling earthquake, which they looked outside, seeing the sea moving of the vibration and was near about to attack the building, but fortunately, The Special Division that stayed were able to put an invisible barrier. They saw a beam so bright, that it could've been from another country, because of it not technically hitting the ocean, because of the water not going up, and also it said to be a nuclear attack. It was said to be hit in none other than America. Jun-lee remembered that Xi was there, and the other Special Division. He rushed to the director, because of the Special Division that were there. The director said that she already ordered the other Special Division to go to America, and that they were fine. He was about to leave the office, but then the director asked, "How have you been coping in the hospital?". Jun-lee looked at here and said, "Fine, everything is good.", and quickly left the office. The director looked up and light a cigarette. She could see Jun-lee has something bothering him.

Jun-lee switched on his walkie talkie to see how Xi is, but it wasn't responding. Jun-lee was shaking and looking at the sky, hoping everything is okay, but nothing, weeks later and still no response. Jun-lee looked at the mirror, while shaving, he thought of escaping to see what's going on, but the little angel said no. Jun-lee had been deciding to dye his hair. He thought of what the worst could happen. He took a needle and stabbed it inside his ears, while stopping the bleeding. He also stabbed the mouth and nose. He luckily bought piercings from his car that he wanted to put on and now was that time. He took scissors and a machine, and began cutting. He grew long hair, so he made himself a wolf cut. Unfortunately for him, Seul-gi came back home, and Jun-lee was done. Seul-gi knocked on the door to see what he was doing, but he said he's coming out. Jun-lee walked out to show her, which surprised her. "Holy shit, you changed your whole look. You look amazing! Like some K-pop singer.", Seul-gi complimented. Jun-lee quickly blushed and just said 'thanks' not knowing what to say, because he was stuttering. They walked outside to the balcony, while Seul-gi sat down, smoking a cigarette. Jun-lee was staring at the sunset.

"You're worried about Xi, aren't you?"

Seul-gi sat to him. Jun-lee looked at her, "I was his teacher for a year, and now I have a responsibility of taking care of him, because of his friends, family and everyone around him are dead. Now I have to be his guardian, especially the fact that he just got in the Special Division, few hours later. It happened so quick.". Seul-gi threw a box of cigarettes to him saying he should take one. Jun-lee was hesitating, but he just thought it could help him. He took one and lit it. "It'll be okay, he will be okay, and you won't have to worry.". Jun-lee nodded looking at the sunset, meanwhile in America, Xi was filled with blood, looking at his dead comrades, then saw two Alphas. He was in his weakest, but now was not the time, because mama never raised a bitch or a pussy. He ripped the sleeves and licked his blood, while laughing. Then it begun

Parallel Awakening - Heroic Judgement

Energy Act III

Xi blasted an Alpha, and ran to a corpse. Xi really didn't want to do this, but the Alphas already nuked America, which is why Jun-lee and Korea felt the earthquake. The whole North America deserted with corpses with no vegetation at all. Xi picked up a corpse's arm and ate it, disgusted at what he did, but he had to survive. After his meal, he saw an Alpha. He ran to the Alpha, about to attack, but saw someone he long knew.

"Xiuying!"

Xi went to his normal mode, looking at her. "I thought you died. What the fuck?", Xi said. Xiuying ran to Xi and threw sharingans at him, which he dodged. When he got prepared to attack, her mouth rushed a whole river of blood. She vomited the blood, and her torso imploded, which made her vomit a head of a human. Xi ran to Xiuying, looking at her bleeding body. "Xi, is it really you?… I'm so glad. I want to say something… I love you.". Xi looked at her with tears in his eyes, "I know.". Xiuying smiled with tears and the deep red blood, then her eyes closed. Xi began crying, looking at his dead love, repeating her name. "WAKE UP! WAKE UP, XIUYING! PLEASE!", Xi repeating this for her. The Special Division luckily arrived to rescue him, but they saw him lying down, next to Xiuying. It took a while, but Xi went in, silent the whole flight. Even when he arrived, he always lied on his bed looking at his window and this continued for two weeks. He couldn't see Jun-lee's transformed form. Xi just entered into a new form of grief. Xiuying was his childhood friend from elementary school and they were always happy together and swore they would get married, but she went missing for years to the point that he gave up on everything and began his rebellious gang career. Xi wanted to hear her voice everyday, but not all romance end with a happy ending. There was a biology meeting, and the professor lectured the whole class, while the director invigilated. The professor said that the torso was where the battery acid laid, but Xi raised his hand. "That's not true, The Alphas are humans like us, but they are manipulated by Judas.", Xi said. "Do you have proof they're humans?", the professor asked. Xi threw the head of the first Alpha he fought. The professor walked forward and looked at took a bite, but Xi punched him in the face. Xi looked at him like he was a cockroach and he was the person to squash him. "Fine, I'll eat the farm humans.", the professor said, but Xi slapped him, looking more disgusted. "Farm humans, Alphas, S.A.I.D, what the fuck is this! We're all humans and this is how your society is now?! Your society is worse than our 2020 society. All of you guys fucking eat each other and make it normal!", Xi shouted to the class. Jun-lee looked at Seul-gi and they saw something's wrong with him.
