Ito Ai: A New Dawn

Chapter 99: The Second Wave Part One

"Mio, hurry up!" A girl yelled at the young woman who was wearing a hooded sweatshirt and cargo pants. She had a machine gun in her hands as she continued to run as fast as she could as short bursts of red lights passed by her head. 

"Tomo, what the hell is happening!?" Mio asked.

It had been a week now since the second wave had begun. The above ground was a no mans land due to the radiation storm. Those who got caught up in it and were hiding out under cover were met with ill fates as the machina swept through. Tomo and Mio had been good friends since childhood. They even went to college together. Now at the age of twenty eight, they were experiencing the tragedy of the new world.

"I am not sure but those weapons are not normal." Tomo replied. She cocked her gun and leaned out firing a few shots at the machina that had made its way into the underground passage that was used for bullet trains.

"Bullets don't seem to be getting near it either so these weapons are useless." Tomo let out a sigh. If she knew today was going to be the day she was going to die maybe she would have taken one of those men up on their offers and got rid of her virginity. 

"What do we do now? If we go any further we will be stuck in the storm. If we stay here we are sure to die at the hands of those machines. No matter which way I look at it we will end up dying." Mio was in a panic, she did not want to die just yet. She had so much going for her but now after everything she was lugging around a machine gun she had found and always on the run whether it be humans or machina, she was always trying to escape something trying to kill her or worse. 

"We can only go down fighting. To be honest I would rather die fighting these fuckers than melt in the rain. At least then when I enter the after life I can tell everyone I went down fighting." Tomo said as she reloaded her pistol.

Mio frowned and looked out past the overhang of the tunnel and sighed. "Then I will fight with you. Although I feel like no matter how many bullets we use we will die quickly. "

"Looks like we will not have a choice!" Tomo yelled as the machina appeared before them. Its guns began to whirl turning a bright red as red beams of light began to shoot out of it. "Ahh!"

The girls did not have a chance to even react as the red beams of light bombarded the area they were in. "Tomo!" 

Tomo who was right in the path of most of the red beam of lights stood no chance as they pierced her body. Her body slumped to the ground lifeless right in front of her longtime friend. "Noo! You fucker!" 

*Bang!* *Bang!* *Bang!*

Mio pulled the trigger on her gun letting all the ammo she had left in it fire at the machina in front of her. Tears dripped down her cheeks as she gave her last stand. As the guns on the machina began to whirl once again Mio's machine gun ran out of ammo. The sounds of clicking could be heard as Mio fell to her knees, she closed her eyes and waited for what was to come. "Tomo, I will be meeting you soon."

*Boom!*

A loud sound as if an explosion went off was heard causing Mio to open her eyes. In front of her was a young girl not more than fifteen years of age. She had no protective gear on and had a machine gun hanging off her arm. She stood with her leg stretched out to her side and a big grin on her face. "Eiji these fuckers can't even handle a light kick." 

"If that was a light kick, then I am scared to think what a heavy kick looks like." Eiji said with a chuckle.

Mio looked at the young man who did not look any older than the girl in shock as well. He was wearing regular clothes just like the girl and looked perfectly fine even after coming in from the rain.

Going back one week

Eiji and Ai had woken up the next morning at the same time. "Good morning."

"Mmm Good morning..." Ai said with a smile as she rolled on top of Eiji. She pushed her lips against his and pushed her tongue into his mouth. Eiji responded in kind and the two shared a passionate kiss first thing in the morning. It only stopped when Ai felt something poke her, making her giggle and finally get off Eiji. "Sorry, maybe that was a bit much for you." 

"It's fine I am used to it now. It should go down in a while. But Ai is this place getting hotter than it was yesterday. I am soaked in sweat." Eiji felt his whole body was sticky in sweat now.

"Mmm, it is hotter. I am not sure what is causing it though. By the way, Eiji, I have been thinking as we were making our way to the bunker. What would happen if you took in some of my blood? Mai said my blood was now purple and mutated which is probably the cause for my mutation. Do you think you would gain the same things as me if you took in some of my blood?" Ai asked. She had thought about it for a while and wondered if her blood would be of any use for the others.

"I am not sure It could or it could turn me into some kind of weird looking mutant. But if you wish to check it out. I will be willing to do it."
