(Kyosei's View)

"Stop being so surprised. You throw that SOS right? Then lets get on to it. Tell me about the situation so that we can quickly formulate a good plan to the battle. We faced the Behemoth before but we barely escaped. Now that it was terrorizing again, I would be willing to help on taking it down. Every single detail would suffice and weapon reports would also be a good thing too," I said as I squashed the can of the cola and throw it to the nearby garbage can.

"alright. We will use the projector this time since most of the reports are recorded to my laptop at the moment."

Haru took the projector on the table that should be his own table at the moment due to the papers scattered on its surface. He plugged in the projector and connected his laptop on it.

Before we can even start the discussion, the radio on Haru's table started buzzing and a voice of a male transmitted through it.

"Sir! Bad news! We saw a horde approaching this way! I can't count the numbers sir! They were basically a sea of them! Over!"

Haru frowned and moved towards the radio.

"Are there any particular things unique to this horde? Over" Haru asked.

"Yes sir! Birds and dogs are attacking too! We are preoccupied at the birds at the moment! Over!"

"I will send backup immediately!" Haru changed the radio frequency and call again.

"Requesting backup on defense! Free soldiers at the moment should head to the barricade immediately! Over!"

Not just a few seconds later, the voice speak on the other line.

"Roger that!"

After Haru said that, he sighed and looked at us.

"So shall we continue?"

"You won't help them?" I asked.

"I already sent a round of backups to deal with the horde. My men can hold on enough," he answered.

"Alright. Please stop the discussion. Those who are ready to fight, please come with me, Sgt. Haru, please allow us to get access to the armory at the moment," I looked at him.

"Huh? Why?"

"I don't like to sit idly here and goes into the safety. Your soldiers are risking their lives over there while I was stuck here listening. I don't feel good when someone is out there trying to sacrifice their lives. I have enough of them dying without me doing a single sh*t," I gritted my teeth. Just remembering Mr. Leo sacrificing himself and Nejima dying and heroically died for his friends makes me want to curse.

The others who are ready to go on combat stood up with me and also followed me. I can hear Haru's voice inside call out on Mr. Tanaka, Mr. Suzuki and Tamaki.

"Captains! Are you also going to participate in the battle too? Its too dangerous! Just stay!" Haru pleaded.

"No, I can't also stay. Kyosei is right, fighting alongside the other soldiers gives more chance of victory than just keeping here without doing anything. Besides, the plan for the Behemoth can wait, Mr. Tanaka explained.

"He already said most of it, so I won't be saying much too," Mr. Suzuki chuckles as he reloaded his Remington shotgun.

"I have to earn my keep so this is a good time to earn it," Tamaki said, clearly determined.

The others also stood up and even Ms. Haruna left with us.

"Haruna! Where are you going?" Haru panicked.

"I can't fight but I can help the wounded in the infirmary. I don't like standing idly either," Ms. Haruna explained.

The other soldiers guarding the room also left with us and they led us to the Armory.

"Where are you guys going huh?" Haru shouted on the two guards.

"What he said is correct sir, I can't let the others carry our burden. We will also go and fight," the first guard responded.

We left and continued towards the armory, leaving Haru on the room.

...

"Are you all sure you all can leave your posts like that?" I asked the two guards leading us.

"Nah, don't worry about it, and besides, we are holed up in that room for how many days already since w occupied the Tsutenkaku Tower. After cleaning up the whole tower from the infected, we are all left to guard that puny room without getting our guns to show off," the first guard smiled.

"And besides, Sgt. Haru is more engrossed in his laptop than talking with us. Ever since the main force of the SDF in Tokyo abandoned us here, he is left out without too much choice but to continue living in this state. He must be in despair and he doesn't want us to continue in this battle," the second guard explained.

I sighed in disappointment. Haru is not a born leader and he struggles in this new power that he holds that he is not sure on what to do. Well, we are both different leaders, I can't just change his mindset easily.

Soon enough, we arrived into the armory. The first guard led us in while the second one escorts the girls to the infirmary. Entering the armory, we saw a lot of guns and spare supplies of parts from most guns used by SDF.

"Wow! Military equipment in the flesh! I am dreaming to see this kinds of weapon in real life and not only in the photos but now, they are in front of me! Wahoo!" Izayoi wanted to dive into the guns but Nanami smack his head.

"Idiot. Stay yourself constraint you military geek. Get a hold of yourself for once!" Nanami scolded him.

"Uuhhh... I didn't mean it, stop smacking me," Izayoi rubbed his head.

I looked around and saw that I don't see the equipment I am looking for.

"Where is the helmets usually stored? And kevlar armors(1) too?" I asked.

"Kevlar armors are out and we have no further supplies. The helmet are still available though, its here in the very back of the guns shelves," the first guard said.

I am looking for a good armor at the moment. Now that new enemies are on the prowl, especially that they are birds, helmet would be the best cover in your head at the moment. Although we lack Kevlar Armors at the moment, I think we will do just fine. Lets just assume that the battle won't be too difficult though...

Footnotes:

1. Kevlar armor -A ballistic vest or bullet-resistant vest, often called a bulletproof vest, is an item of personal armor that helps absorb the impact and reduce or stop penetration to the body from firearm-fired projectiles and shrapnel from explosions, and is worn on the torso. Soft vests are made of many layers of woven or laminated fibres and can protect the wearer from small-calibre handgun and shotgun projectiles, and small fragments from explosives such as hand grenades.
