Chapter Thirty Four: Long Time Coming

Everyone rushed to get outside, Masane carrying the overly distressed Yumiyo. Her heart caught on every sob exiting Yumiyo's mouth.

I hated hearing Yoshikawa cry too...

"It's gonna be okay Yumi. I promise you it will be. Maybe not immediately but it will get better."

Yumiyo could only respond with wails and heart breaking hollering, hiccuping on the way.

Fuuko was the one who reached the doors first and kicked them open to rush forward. Everyone followed soon behind and the scene before them was...

Utter chaos.

Cops, ambulances, and military vehicles surrounded them. Helicopters flew above them, shining their lights on them. As soon as they caught sight of the kids though, everyone went quiet.

So quiet you could hear a pin drop.

"Wh- where's my baby?" A tall blonde woman with green eyes stepped forward, scanning the teens before her.

That's got to be Amy's mother.

"Where's my brother?" A younger teenage boy showed up, maybe around 14 years old. He had scruffy red hair and intense red eyes, filled with worry.

I suppose this is Kenho's baby brother.

"Where the hell is our boy?!" A man stepped up next. He had a face devoid of worry, only filled with anger. He had dark brown hair and honey gold eyes.

Andddd this is Raou's father.

"Wellll howdie folks! Sure is a beautiful day today, ain't it? Birds are chirping, flowers are blooming, and teens are dying!"

"Stop messing around and give us our children!" Amy's mom screamed.

"Ahh you're one of those rare parents that actually gives a damn huh? Well sorry to say until they die, these bitches, your kids...are mine."

With that horrifying statement, 3 bodies hurled forward over the fence. Amy's mutilated and disfigured body landed first, directly in front of her mother. Then came Kenho, whose body ricocheted until it landed in front of the young teen boy. And last came Raou's body, slightly damp and clutching the butterfly pin Masane gave him.

And at each parent's and brother scream, everyone commenced an attack. People tried ripping the fence apart but didn't get far before it became electrified and sent them flying. Police began firing before realizing they had to stop or they'd risk hitting the teens and other civilians.

Masane spotted the butler, Jero, and brought Yumiyo over to him. Yumiyo crumpled just as Jero barely caught her. His eyes seemed to be covered in sorrow as her thanked Masane, silently.

"Masane!"

She turned in time to see her mother before hurriedly running over.

"Mom..."

"Oh honey, I know."

They embraced each other the best they could with the fence separating them.

"Daughter..." An unwelcome voice entered their reunion.

Masane put on her best neutral expression as she, once again, faced her sperm donor.

"What do you want, Fumihiro?"

"Come on pumpkin, I'm your father. Calling me by my first name, might make me think you don't like me." Fumihiro chuckled but no one else joined in.

Me not liking you? Neverrrr.
