Shaking her head, Saeko replies "He doesn't act it, I've been observing him the whole time, his behavior is completely natural... besides, from the reactions he had in every situation... the way he joined his hand with ours, the way he behaved when Shizuka hugged him, the way he reacted, even the way he sat.... all of that indicates that his personality is not acted..."

"What do you mean?"

"I'd hazard a guess that he grew up in a forest or something, that would explain his clothes..."

"Growing up in the forest? Saeko, this isn't a movie" Turning her head, Saya replied mockingly "Also, what about his clothes?"

"Didn't you notice?" asked Saeko quizzically "All the clothes he's wearing are made of fur, his cloak was white tiger fur, his coat is made of wolf fur and apparently his pants are made of boar skin or some similar animal."

"But that doesn't indicate he's from the forest, maybe his family was wealthy, it's not hard to get those furs if you have enough money"

"And how do you explain his obvious lack of language? I'm pretty sure he doesn't understand anything we talk about and apparently, his only language is his grunts."

"That's what worries me!" whispered Saya a little louder "He might be a guy with dementia or something similar!"

"You try to look for something negative in everything, let me tell you something, if he wanted to kill us, he could have done it a long time ago" Shaking her head, Saeko whispered while staring at her wooden katana "Even though it hurts my pride to say it, I know I wouldn't stand a chance against him, at least not with this"

"You exaggerate, there are many more of us, besides Kohta has a nail gun, what's the use of having katanas if he can't get close to the enemy"

"Saya, you despise these types of weapons too much.... When you see with your own eyes how lethal they are, it may be too late"

"..."

Saya spoke no more, causing silence to return to the bus, while the female trio stared at the road for a good while, until a certain wolf awoke.

Standing up in bewilderment, the man looked around, then stared at the backs of the three women in front of him.

Ducking his back a little, he walked slowly and silently towards them, arriving after a few seconds at Saya's back.

*Sniff* *Sniff* *Sniff*.

Gently touching Saya's neck, the man lightly sniffed the woman's hair.

"KYAAA!!!" Instantly jumping up in horror, Saya hugged Saeko tightly while shouting loudly.

*Shiii*

Quickly braking the bus from the sudden fright, Shizuka tried her best to control the steering wheel to avoid crashing, while the sudden jolt woke everyone up.

"What happened!?" Rushing forward to the driver's seat, Takashi asked with concern.

"Grrr" Growling in annoyance, the wolf walked towards the broken window of the bus.

"STUPID!!!" Pointing at the wolf with a face red with anger, Saya shouted.

Without stopping walking, the wolf reached the window and jumped between it without difficulty.

"WHERE ARE YOU GOING!!!?" Opening the door of the bus, Saya quickly got out while shouting furiously.

"Saya, wait!" shouted Takashi, quickly leaving in his wake, while Saeko, Kohta and Rei, followed him.

"Sensei, did something happen?" looking at the broken window where the man came out, Yuki asked.

"I don't know."

Walking slowly, the man looked at the two-story house in front of him in silence, while Saya quickly followed him, only to freeze as she watched his next action.

The man in one quick leap asserted himself on the edge of the house's wall, while, with another leap, he reached the roof, all in less than 5 seconds.

Already on the roof, the wolf sat on an edge staring up at the moon.

"Come down from there, chuunibyou!"

Saya shouted, looking sideways, seeing 'them' approaching by their noises.

But the man didn't respond, still turning his back to the bus, staring directly at the full moon above him, until he let out his voice.

"Auuuuuuuuuu~" Taking a deep breath, the wolf howled with all his might towards the moon, but this howl was noticeably different from the first one that contained excitement and some happiness.

In this howl a deep loneliness could be heard that chilled the bones of everyone in the place.

"Auuuuuuuu~"

"We have to go!"

Takashi exclaimed, grabbing Saya's arm to drag her with him.

"Y-yes..."

Saya nodded, turning to head for the bus, but not taking her eyes off the wolf about the house.

"Saeko, Rei, Kohta what are you waiting for? Let's go"

Takashi shouted hurriedly, stopping at the side of the bus door.

"We can't leave him!"

"Sure we can!" shouted Takashi, pointing his finger at the wolf "Just look at him, he's completely crazy, he'll end up killing us all for his stupid things!"

"Do you hear what you're saying!?" Shouted Rei "Weren't you talking a few hours ago about saving people!?"

"You saved that scumbag Shidou, but you don't want to save that man?"

"Just because you don't like him we shouldn't save him!?"

"Hypocrite"

Whispering her last words, Rei turns her head towards the zombies, who huddle near the bus.

"..." Staring at the woman he loves speaking to him with obvious hatred, Takashi froze as he clenches his fists tightly in frustration.

"Best to leave for now..." Kohta whispered, looking at Takashi bitterly "He can survive on the rooftops no problem, but we can't, we can even wait on the bus, I don't think those things can get in, we just have to be quiet..."

"We can do that for now, if he needs help, we just need to get out."

Saeko spoke, staring at the man's back over the house.

"Okay..."

Nodded Rei hesitantly as she started walking towards the bus, but without taking her eyes off the man on the roof.

"Auuuuuuuuu~"

"Quickly!"

"Auuuuuuu~~"

With the last howl, everyone ran towards the bus, closing the door at the same instant the last person entered, as Rei clapped her hands twice in the aisle, drawing everyone's attention.

"We'll stay here for tonight, it's dangerous to travel at night, besides Sensei has to rest."

"I would like to ask everyone not to make as little noise as possible, so as to avoid detection."

"I also think we should stay away from the broken window, it can be dangerous if someone gets close and one of 'them' catches them"

"Any questions?"

Rei stated, looking one by one at the bus.

"I have one..." Raised a man's hand.

"What is your name?

Saya asked.

"Y-yamada."

"Yamada, what's your question?"

"What will we do next?"

"We don't have any plans...but for now the main thing is to try to get food and then we can talk about some plan"

"Does anyone else have a question?"

"I do" Yuuki raised her hand "What happened to that man?"

"Auuuuuuuuu~"

Another howl was heard, shaking a few people inside the bus.

"You're listening to him, if you look out the window, you can see him."

"Anyone else?"

"..."

"Okay, so whatever the sun comes up, we can plan on what to do, for now we should rest" Finishing speaking, Rei turned and sat down next to Saeko.

"You didn't know you had a leader in you."

Smiled Saeko slightly.

"I-I... no-no."

Stammered Rei nervously with a blush on her face, only to be interrupted by Saeko.

"Don't explain, it was perfect, we needed some order."

Saeko whispered as she turned her gaze towards the window.

"You know it's a bad idea to stay here tonight don't you?"

Saya asked, poking her head out from the front seat.

"Yeah... those things are going to surround us, it'll be hard to get out, but at the same time, it's dangerous to travel at night, just look at Sensei" Saeko replied, pointing her towards Shizuka, who was asleep on the steering wheel of the vehicle.

"Good point..."

"Auuuuuu~"

"..."

"Every time I feel it howl, I feel my heart clench..."

Rei whispered, turning her gaze to the man about the house.

"..."

"It looks lonely..."

Saya murmured, looking hesitantly towards the wolf.

"And you wanted to chase him away"

"Hmph, of course he has to go, he's dangerous."

Snorted Saya, looking away from the man.

"What's he doing?" looking at the man who stood at the edge of the house, Yuuki asked loudly, instantly drawing the attention of everyone awake on the bus.

The man stopped howling and suddenly stood up on the roof, as his gaze shifted to the large amount of zombie is below him.

"Auuuuuuuu~"

Letting out a howl with obvious excitement, the man slowly pulled off his wolf helmet, causing the group of women to be stunned by the beautiful sight.

The man, now without a helmet, could be seen instantly taking off the wolf coat that covered him, exposing his entire upper body, while his hair swayed in the wind and if we add the moon behind his back, we could say without a doubt, that his appearance is lethal to every woman, including some men.

Taking both katanas in his hands, the shoulder wolf looked excitedly towards his prey, then crouched slightly and jumped.

"What are you doing!?" Saya shouted in panic, drawing the attention of everyone on the bus.

But her scream didn't reach the man who was already in the air, watching her entire fall in slow motion.

"Fifth Fang: Cutting Madness!"

Whispered the man in a hoarse and somewhat strained voice, visibly exhaling steam from his mouth.

*Slash* Slash* *Slash*.

Multiple slashes of what appeared to be wind came from the swing of his sword, causing the scene to instantly transform into a shower of blood. The man charged uncontrollably at the zombies, slashing and destroying everything in his path with a cold indifference on his face.

*Slash* *Boom* *Slash* *Boom* *Boom*

Slashing sounds and loud crashing sounds flooded the area, while the bus shook heavily from the impacts, waking up everyone who had already fallen asleep, and then heading to the window where the others were.

The loud sounds continued for about 30 seconds.

So that, from one moment to the next, silence returned to reign the area, leaving only an incredible image in the background.

From the bus a cloud of dust could be seen in the air, obscuring the view of everything inside, but little by little the povlo vanished, drawing the full attention of everyone on the bus.

Once the dust cloud was gone, its interior was revealed, causing strong emotions in everyone.

There stood the man on the sidewalk, looking up at the moon with a bored face as the blood continued to rain down on him, turning his entire body and hair crimson.

His surroundings were terrible, hundreds of fragments of what were once humans were everywhere.

Heads, arms, legs, but most horrible of all, blood was quickly pooling on the ground, creating a large puddle all over the area.

But for some, the most frightening thing was the damage to the structures.

There were large gashes in the pavement, the surrounding houses were smashed, the cars that used to be piled up there were now sliced up and destroyed.

In short, the scene looked like something out of a horror or war movie.

"Auuuuuu~"

Rocking his head back, the man howled excitedly, splattering a large amount of blood that was in his hair.

"M-monster!" Backing away in fear, Yamata exclaimed.

"Kyaaaa!" Hugging each other, two women cried out in horror.

"Haaa~" Looking at the man covered in blood, Saeko exhaled hot air as her legs clenched tightly.

Suddenly turning his gaze, the man glared at everyone on the bus, causing a large portion of the students to instantly tremble.

Shaking his katanas, the wolf wiped the blood from them and walked over to his helmet, then picked it up and placed it on his head.

Walking to the bus, the wolf enters through the window and without looking at the others, walks to the front door and lies down on the ground, then shrinks into a fetal position and quickly falls asleep.

"..."
