( Yuuki's POV )
Detecting the strange signal of the Kabanes, I called the girls and told them to form an assault group to follow us, and while we were waiting for them we observed the movement of the Kabanes on our radars.
Kuno: The Kabanes reached the city, they entered without problems.
Yuuki: Their walls were not of much use there.
Kuno and I activated our IS and flew to the station with a pair of Hybrid Gears carrying huge metal cages flying behind us.
When we approached the station, I saw one of the entrances destroyed by a derailed train, It seemed that somehow, the Kabanes hijacked a train, and they crashed into the station.
Inside the station, there were not so many Kabanes, but chaos and despair was reigning supreme, and the number of Kabanes was increasing rapidly, I landed in the middle of the station, and at that moment, a panicked guard shot me, of course that didn't get past my barriers.
One of the metal cages fell behind me, and I started throwing the kabanes into it, although I had the situation under control, the people did not stop running in fear, I suppose that now that the Kabanes had breached the city, everyone considered this place lost.
I lifted the cage and continued collecting Kabanes, when that was full I moved to an open space, I was waiting for Kuno and the others but I got distracted by the sound of a train whistle, were they really going to leave this place that easily, I told Kuno to take care of the rest of the Kabanes and I went to observe what the people were doing.
Following the tracks, I found the last group of Kabanes following behind the armored train that was trying to leave the city, but they couldn't lower the bridge.
I used my tails to pull the Kabans behind me, and as I moved forward, I saw a guy slowly making his way through the Kabanes, he went to a lever that lowered the bridge, and the train moved forward again, leaving the guy behind, I couldn't leave things like that.
Yuuki: here we go.
???: arg let me go leave me here!
I picked up the guy who seemed to have given up on life, and I jumped inside the train, there were many scared people there, but I ignored them and put the guy on the ground.
???: Why did you save me!?
Yuuki: Why? Because I can, that's why.
I wanted to ask the boy's name, but before that, some guards appeared pointing their guns at the boy and throwing a strange device on the ground.
Guardia: I'm not ashamed of being saved by a Kabane, but if you have any humanity left, use that.
???: He's not a Kabane, but he's not human either...
???: Mumei.
When the guards pointed their guns at the boy I stood in front of him but before I could act a girl appeared behind the guards and stood next to us and the boy called her by her name, she exposed her back and she showed the shining heart characteristic of a Kabane, but she had another answer.
Mumei: We are Kabaneris, we are those who are between Kabanes and humans.
The girl explained the situation she and the boy were in, but the guards didn't care about that, It was in line with what Miu said happened, but they lowered their weapons when a noble girl appeared, that was the woman Ayame that Miu told me about.
Ayame: What are you doing, these people saved us.
Yuuki: Ayame, I wanted to talk to you.
Ayame: And you are?
Yuuki: Kurokawa B. Yuuki, king of the kingdom of Babylon, I think we have a lot to talk about.
/////////////////////
Ayame agreed to talk to me, but she had to confirm the condition of the train, which gave me time to talk to those two Kabaneris, They were locked in the last car for quarantine and also for the safety of the others, and when I entered I saw the boy on the floor.
Yuuki: Am I interrupting something?
Mumei: ...what are you doing here?
Yuuki: I just came to talk.
I approached the Kabaneri boy, and I inspected his arm, which was the place where he was bitten, Then his neck that was tightened by a metal collar, but that did not seem to bother him.
Yuuki: Tell me, boy, what is your name?
???: ah my name is Ikoma.
Yuuki: You put that necklace on to prevent the virus from reaching your head, how did you know to do that?
Ikoma: That was a theory between Takumi and I, I didn't expect to test that on myself.
Yuuki: You're not scared of the Kabanes like the others.
Ikoma: Nothing will change if we are always scared.
Mumei: You are strange too, you are not scared of us.
Yuuki: because I would be you can't hurt me, how often do you have to drink blood.
Ikoma: What are you saying?
Yuuki: You kept your consciousness, but your body is no longer human, sooner or later, your body will ask you for blood.
Ikoma: I can't believe it, I'm a monster.
Yuuki: Don't be stupid, I didn't say you have to kill anyone, you just need a special diet, if you are interested there is a place for someone like you in-
Mumei: uh kabane.
While we were talking the girl Mumei suddenly came out of the car and as expected people panicked, things got worse when she grabbed a katana from the guards, She seemed to be looking for something but the guards didn't care about that, there was a lot of tension locked up in this place so Ayame said that we would make a short stop, to make repairs and for people to perform a mourning ceremony for the lives that were lost at the station, In case all the people at the station are alive but this was my chance to talk to Ayame.
When the train stopped, I called Ayame, and we moved to a place away from the others, But one of her guards came with her, his name was Kurusu, who was her most skilled warrior.
Ayame: I'm sorry to keep you waiting.
Yuuki: Don't worry, I can see a path for us now that I've been watching you.
Ayame: What are you saying?
Yuuki: What is your goal Ayame? what kind of future is there for those who are following you.
Kurusu: Hey, be more respectful of Ayame-sama!
Ayame: That's fine, Kurusu, I don't care about that, to answer your question, our goal is Kongoukaku, My uncle is there, and he will help us find a place where we can settle down.
So they just plan to keep running away.
