Apocalypse

Chapter 2

It took a little while but here you are.

~
It's been 15 years since Kza and I met. Things have been going decent as well. We moved away from my village to start fresh. Somewhere far away with plenty of resources, food, & water and built a small home for us to live in. Everything was perfect for us...until today that is.

I was in the kitchen cleaning up when Kza slammed the door open. I jumped and looked at him in confusion. He was out of breath. I walked toward him and asked, "What's wrong sweetheart?"

"A girl. I saw a girl. She needs help. Savages. 5 of them. They have her surrounded and are trying to kill her."

"What?" I quickly grabbed my bow and arrows, my knife, and sword and said, "Let's go." He nodded and followed me. "Where's your weapons?"

"Let's just say I had a feeling that I need them when I left earlier. So I left them under a bush near the girl and savages."

"You always seem to know things before I do."

"That's how I protect you." I smiled as he began leading the way. "They are right through here." He said pointing at a group of bushes in the forest.

We slowed our footsteps and quietly crouched behind them. We heard voices and they sounded unhappy. "Let's think of a perfect way of getting rid of you." One voice said.

"Well before you guys decide that. I want a little taste of her." Another said.

"N-no. Leave me alone. Please." That voice was female and very scared.

I looked at Kza and pointed at a tree nearby. I'm going up. I mouthed. He nodded and I quietly walked away from him. I walked toward the tree and jumped up into it. Thank you for great hops. I thought.

I grabbed an arrow and readied my bow. I pointed my weapon at one guy who had black hair. His back was turned to me. I shot and my arrow went threw his neck. I grabbed another as everyone looked at the dead guy. "What?! Who's there?!" I shot another guy in the head who had light brown hair.

I grabbed another. "What the hell is going on?!" I shot another guy in the chest. He had a mask on.

"Show yourself!" They were terrified.

Then Kza ran out with his sword and stabbed a guy in the chest. The last guy tried to stab him in the back but I quickly jumped down with my sword. He looked at me and I said, "Come on. I wanna play." He came out me with his sword and I laughed. I blocked every attack swiftly and gracefully making him angrier. I blocked another attack making his sword leave his graspe and punched him hard in the face. He fell to the ground and I grabbed him by the hair. "Oh? Is that the best you can do?" I said mocking him.

He chuckled and stabbed me in the side. I hissed as Kza yelled, "Kitty!"

I growled lowly, "That's not how you treat a lady." I dropped my sword, pulled out his knife and slit his throat. I dropped him and held my side. I looked up and Kza held me. "I'm fine." I looked at the girl. She had black shoulder length hair and tan skin. She looked like she was Japanese. She was wearing a black shirt with a pair of jeans and black boots. I smiled and said, "You're safe now. Get far away from this area. More will show up later."

"Thank you. But I have nowhere to go though."

"Any family?" Kza asked. She shook her head. He looked at me and I nodded. "You could stay with us."

"Are you sure? I don't want to be a burden."

"Our job is to help anybody in need. You need a place to stay and we can help."
