Ryu's POV

"You're, not from this world?" asked a girl who looked like a kid

"You could say that." I replied

"You seem very, different." said the corpse

I nodded.

"He's not human." said Thunder

I looked over to the guy wearing all black.

"Oi, what's your name?" I asked

He stopped walking and looked at me, he made a frowning expression the entire time but he didn't seem mad.

"Killy." he simply replied

"Are you the leader of this group?" I asked

"No we just met him too thanks to these three kids." said the elderly man

He pointed at three short kids and I tilted my head.

"Why are there kids here?" I asked

"You look like a kid too." snapped one of the soldiers

"Oi oi I'm 200 years old." I said

Everyone gasped and backed up a bit.

"I told you, I'm not from this world." I said

"So you really don't know anything about the safeguards?" asked the elderly

"Safeguard?" I questioned

"The Safeguard is the technology that's hunting the humans. We used to control them a couple hundred of years back but humanity somehow lost control and they started seeing humanity as a threat." said the elderly

"So what are you guys doing?" I asked

"We're looking for the thing that may help us regain control of it." said the elderly

"Oh, that's bad." I commented

"Now you explain to us." said the elderly man, "With your name."

"Name's Ryu, I'm from a different earth." I replied

"Different earth?" questioned one of the soldiers

"This is not the only earth existing. There's millions of earths out there." I said, "And I'm just a person who goes around helping those who are in need."

Everyone around me started chattering not knowing if I was telling the truth or lying.

"Hard to believe right?" I asked while smiling

"Why are you smiling for?" asked the old man

"I get the same reaction all the time, I got used to it." I said, "There's nothing more to explain."

"There are a lot of things to explain." said another soldier, "How is that possible?"

"A lot of things are possible, don't worry about it geez." I replied

"Answer my question then, are there earths where there's peace?" asked the old man

I shrugged.

"I don't know, but there's a lot where you don't have to worry about something like this." I said, "So maybe some peace if you ask me."

We walked through the blocks and it was so damn complex.

"What are your names?" I asked

"Call me Pops." said the old man

'Pops?'

"Okay, that's nice." I replied

I yawned and continued to walk for who knows how long in complete silence until Pops stopped us.
