Chapter 7: Separation [Part 2]

Reia despite keeping a cool face was absolutely terrified facing the massive mutant.

\'This can\'t be happening right now.\' Reia was unsure what to do, but at least she was able to grab the attention of the mutant.

The giant mutant turned, swinging his big arm around while screaming in rage.

Reia snapped out of it and quickly jumped out of the way. She holstered her gun in the process and unsheathed her sword.

\'Now let\'s hope I can get away.\' Reia still was unsure if she could even escape from the giant but seeing its size, it looked like she could at least outrun it.

Reia turned to run further into the city, but the fatigue of running and this morning\'s mission was catching up to her.

\'Oh, why now!\' Reia felt her legs ache, although bearable she could not keep running forever.

The mutant began to move and just like Reia guessed the mutant was a lot slower being unable to catch up to her.

\'At least I will be able to get away.\' Reia taking advantage of her head start ran into an alleyway and quickly climbed on to the roof.

This way allowed her to avoid the mutants on the ground but also get away by running down the line of apartment buildings.

However, as she got to the roof the giant mutant slammed down on the building causing half of it to collapse. Reia, just being outside its range, was able to quickly run and jump off the roof to the next one.

The mutant swept its hand across the bottom layer destroying the building\'s foundation and making the entire building collapse.

Reia looked back seeing the mutant had not realised she jumped to the next roof and taking advantage of that continued to run.

Jumping from roof to roof she had put a considerable amount of distance between her and the mutant.

The mutant realised Reia had moved and started following Reia destroying every apartment complex in its way. Reia, after running across many apartments, found herself at the end. She had made it to another main road and the gap was too much for her to jump across meaning she had to jump down.

Groups of mutants were also roaming the streets and the odd terrified civilian could be seen hiding.

It was a horrible sight to witness, but Reia could do nothing as she wasn\'t willing to risk her life for someone she doesn\'t know.

The mutant was getting closer and not having much time slid down a drainage pipe landing on the sidewalk. Reia was getting desperate to escape from the mutant and seeing a sign with the words underground car park sparked a bit of hope.

\'I should be able to hide there and the massive mutant surely can\'t get down there.\' Reia hoped it wouldn\'t be infested with mutants as it would be a good spot to rest up temporarily.

Reia ran down the road following the sign hoping she could get into the underground car park before the giant mutant came through. Each step the mutant had taken shook the ground and with each passing moment got louder.

Reia seeing mutants ahead of her activated her blade and the purple lines on it began to glow. A lightning effect also came from the glowing lines and grew more violent as the blade glowed brighter.

The mutants noticed Reia and charged at her. A mutant cat which now looked more like a tiger in size was ahead of the small group of mutants and pounced at Reia.

Reia slid underneath the mutant cat while raising her sword, cleanly cutting the cat in half and splitting its core. Not stopping there Reia jumped into the air at the other 3 mutants with her sword.

Reia poured more essence into her sword and stabbed the human mutant in mid-air. The blade began to glow brighter till it discharged a massive amount of lightning paralysing the other 2 mutants.

Pushing down on her blade spun in the air cutting the human mutant in half and destroying the core. Reia then landed doing a spin on the ground while cutting the pig and lizard mutant in half horizontally. She managed to destroy their cores as well, finding that striking the middle was a reliable strategy to hit the cores as all of the mutants they had killed had their cores in the middle.

Reia stayed squatted for a moment before falling to the floor as her legs were beginning to hurt even more.

\'Shit I really need to hide.\' Reia looked up, finding she was just outside the underground car park.

\'Just a little bit more.\' Using her Sword as a walking stick got inside the underground car park.

The giant mutant had smashed through the final building reaching the main road that Reia was on but saw she was nowhere to be seen. Now that it lost Reia, it started to wander down the road dragging its arm destroying anything in its path.

Reia walked down the ramp leading to the underground car park and thankfully found no mutants hanging around. Reia looked for a small booth away from an entrance to hide in and rest.

Reia saw that there were not many cars which was a little odd as most cars were eclectic and the emp effect across the entire city should have made them impossible to start. So the number of cars left behind seemed rather low for what there should be in a car park.

\'Maybe not many people were out, if so, that means there should not be many mutants.\' Reia hoped that was the case but she kept her guard up as anything was possible at this rate.

Reia walked her way to the corner of the underground car park where a small office was located. Reia also felt the place tremble from the footsteps of the giant mutants footsteps as it walked past. Reia froze waiting for the mutant to pass before she continued to move.

\'Please, don\'t notice I am here.\' Reia panicked for a moment as she was unsure if the mutant was still after her.

\'I need to get to gate 2 but I don\'t think I can make it there on time to meet up with Lou and Kim.\' Reia almost forgot she had to go to gate 2, but seeing as she could hardly run and the adrenaline was wearing off there was no way she could make it in time.

\'Looks like I\'m going solo for a while.\' Reia\'s new goal was to get to the safe haven that Reia and her squad made but without a car, it would take many days to get there.

\'Only if we could communicate, it would make this process so much easier.\' Reia stabbed her sword into the ground harder in frustration.

\'There is no telling if everyone else is alive and we don\'t even know if our safe haven is intact.\' Reia did not like the number of unknown factors there were and the only thing she could do was survive while slowly making her way to the haven.

The trembles finally had stopped and Reia felt relieved as it was clear that the giant mutant did not know where she was. Knowing the mutant had passed Reia continued to make her way to the small office.

\'Fuck, I need to sit down my legs are burning like crazy.\' The adrenaline had completely worn off and Reia\'s leg began to shake.

\'Why did this have to be the day after I get back from a mission, I was already exhausted before the city went to shit.\' Reia on that same day had only come back from her final mission hence the meeting with the general since she was the squad leader.

Everyone else in the squad while Reia had the meeting had gone off to do their own things as they needed time to relax leaving some of them separated.

\'If I knew we were going to be killed I would have not even bothered to go back to base and go straight back to our safe haven.\' Reia did not expect that the generals were going to kill them so quickly, forcing their plan to leave the military to be pushed forward.

Reia then finally made it to the office and opened the door, but since the blinds were down she was unable to see inside.

Reia hoped there were no mutants and luckily the room was empty with no traces of any mutants. The room was rather clean and figured nobody was at work today making this place rather safe.

\'Looks like I can rest.\' Reia was glad to find a little spot to hide out and sort out her thoughts.

Reia had a lot to think about right now but her body was telling her to rest so she had no choice but to sit down.

Reia quickly locked the door by putting a chair underneath the handle to give her some security while she rested. Reia then went to the wall and leaned up to it sliding down to the floor.

As soon as Reia sat down she found her eyes already shutting trying to get her to sleep.

However, before Reia could get some rest, A male\'s voice rang out from the other side of the room.

"Reia?"
