Inside The Wall

Chapter 7 - The End

"Oh hell." Saia stated. "Keio will be in deep shit."

"What?!" Sarah more yelled than asked. "Oh hell? There is an eighty meter tall monster inside our wall! And all you can say is ‘Oh hell’?!"

"Sarah you dramatize, its only sixty meters tall." Felix mentioned casually and Sarah slapped him.

"We are going to die idiot! And you care about its size! It will use this walls like a giant candy box and we are the candy!" Sarah yelled him now straight in the face.

"You should go now." Alex said calmly to Saia.

After they had heard the thud they had made their way out of the underground as fast as possible and were standing in front of the building, staring at the monster. On their way here they had explained Saia what creature has entered their wall, while making a silent agreement that they won't ask her for help. In her current condition they could only hope she was able to get home healthy.

Saia turned to Alex and bit her lip, before turning around facing Zsusa. He instantly lied down and Alex retreated a little. The shock of Zsusa breaking all the chains that had bound him so easily was still in his bones.

Saia fished a black jacket and pants from her bag and it looked like it was made of the monsters skin, but that was impossible right? The skin was the hardest material in their world, it was impossible to use it as clothes.

She slipped the things on and retrieved some boots, putting them on as well, then turning to Alex again.

"You know..." She stocked, before shaking herself and looking him straight in the eyes. "Zsusa and I are the same opinion. Some of your clan might have hurt me, but you also saved me. So I'm in your debt again. I will kill it and then return home."

Alex looked at her wide eyed.

"Not in your condition!" Sarah literally snapped.

"She is right Saia, just return home we will find a way to get rid of it." Felix tried to assure her as well.

"I'm fine and you might make it, but you will lose many lives so unskilled you are with them." Saia replied sounding a little stubborn and childish.

"You think you can kill it?" Alex asked, guessing that when Saia was only half as stubborn as her bond Zsusa was, then she really had made her decision already.

"Well, I'm taught to fit in and hide between them, but sometimes I also kill them." Saia said thoughtful looking at it. "But I'm a really good bait."

"Okay.... Wait what?" Alex looked at her incredulous.

"I can lure them." Saia told him rolling her eyes. "Normally I pull them into our 'warriors' traps. I know how to avoid taking Damage and as large as this one is, Zsusa should be able to outrun it easily. "

They were all quietly looking as the giant creature slowly moved, approaching the city. It looked so unreal with his almost frozen looking movements, so slow was it.  

"Well, see you." Saia said amused, her heart was beating fast of excitement. She never had faced such a large creature alone, but was sure to get it down. It was no match for her and Zsusa, it was just too slow.

She grabbed the chains of Zsusa's collar, put one foot trough the lowest part and skillfully climbed on his back. Zsusa instantly started running and jumped a meter away on the next roof jumping from one to the next. So he was avoiding the chaotic streets and could move faster.

"Saia!" She heard someone call behind her, but didn't turn around. It wasn't the time for it. When the monster reached the first houses, people would surely die.
