The Earth After Rebirth

He pierced through the first head at amazing speeds, which caused the zombie to turn into mushy liquid. He continued to comb forwards. Turning anything he made contact with to mush, at the same time he was creating a way in for his master.

Ryu was not a sharp weapon, but there was nothing he couldn't cut or pierce. He was a mythic staff after all. Kiro felt immense joy that he was the one who stumbled upon it, and most of all he was able to awaken him.

As if Ryu felt his master's feelings, he blitzed faster and reached the end of the hall, and continued on another row of zombies until he got out of the same door he came in.

Kiro caught him, the goo was disgusting to say the least but he didn't show it. He took out a tiny cloth and cleaned his staff.

A way in could be seen now, but the zombies were no longer looking up. They were looking at them with eyes full of resentment, yet at the same time lifeless. It seemed they couldn't get out of that building, even though the sun wasn't out.

"Formation!" Kiro yelled, they quickly got in formation. Hiro was the tank so he was at the front, Kiro and Nikolai were at opposite sides. While their healer Felix was protected by Ishaan's force shield in the middle of their triangle.

"Felix, your priority is to heal Hiro and Nikolai, I should be the least of your worries." Kiro told him, he had meditation after all, so he didn't need healing much, maybe for stamina but beyond that he was good.

"Yes!" Felix didn't question, he knew Kiro enough now that he wouldn't make demands he couldn't meet.

Like that, they walked in the movie theatre.

Ding!

Kiro rolled his eyes at the system's message. It was cheeky as always, was the system self-aware? Was the question in his mind, if had to be but he didn't have time for that right now, as hundreds of zombies lunged at them.

"Whirlwind." He said softly, they were all either blown away or cut into pieces. None of them took the advantage for granted, as they started hacking the ones that fell closer.

As if they sent each other a mental message, each of them broke formation and went their separate ways.

The zombies were slow and weren't much of a threat if one was careful enough, there were just many of them. Each going to their own corner Kiro and his spectres remained at the centre of it all, they would surely cover more ground and kill more of them.

Nikolai's blades were as sharp as his senses. He didn't need to pierce their heads twice, once was enough.

The whole house was full of shadow, so this was his forte. His shadow skill was more useful in a situation like this, as he could be everywhere at once, at a blink of an eye. And since he was an assassin fighting head-on was his weakness.

Kiro and the others were mesmerised by the way he fought, they hadn't really seen him use his skills before. To them it looked like he was the shadow, or controlled all of the shadows.

He'd be across the room, then in an instant he'd be back where Felix and Ishaan stood, before the zombie he killed even turned to dust.

"Felix, heal him, his breath is becoming ragged!"

Felix looked at Nikolai who seemed fine, then looked at Kiro again. He wasn't trying to question his orders but he didn't see anything peculiar with Nikolai's breathing. Kiro could feel his hesitation.

"I can sense things you can't, we can't have him running out of mana. Quickly!" He shouted the command at Felix.

Felix didn't think twice again and started the healing process, when he was done, he was dumbfounded that almost half his mana was gone.

He vowed to be a better healer from then on, he quickly downed a mana potion to replinish his so he could continue healing.

Kel was having more fun than he should have been having. He was never part of their formation, so the moment they entered he went far and wide.

It seemed like he didn't have any strategies, he was just causing havoc. He clawed, pecked and used every skill he had. Kiro let him be, he deserved to let some steam off.

Hiro on the other hand was still on the testing stages with his guardian subclass. He didn't have anything to tank, so he took on a role of a 3rd damage dealer. This class made him a protector, thereby allowing him combat prowess.

He had his shield and axe on his back, and he was actually using his fists and feet, short as he was. It looked as though he was on par with a Kiro before kaos, when it came to martial arts, it was a sight to see.

The zombies were a lot slower, so that gave him the perfect situation to practise on. One zombie appeared from his left, he elbowed it, another from the front he decapitated it's head with a simple kick. He stopped for a while, taking in the combat power he was not used to, a smug smile could be seen on his face.

He felt one trying to ambush him from behind, so he jumped up and did a black flip, while it was still looking around for where its prey had gone, Hiro descended on it, his knee met its skull and a huge crack sound could be heard across the room.

"Wow Hiro, is that your subclass? Feels like a cheat." Kiro complained.

"You're the one to talk, you had Hubris, Ryu and now spectres and kaos!" Hiro shot back, grinning like a madman.

Kiro chuckled. His friend had really came a long way, he was now more expressive and that made Kiro happy.

He also wasn't left behind, as he was using every skill in his arsenal to kill as many zombies as possible.

Killing them was so much easy that he let his guard down. He was enjoying himself as much as Kel was, the feeling of cutting through heads with his staff made him feel, powerful.

He hadn't realised it, but that made him drunk on power. It made him feel invincible, as though nothing can stop him.
