THE AWAKENING: BIO-GENETICS

"AAAAAAHHHHHHHH" Hiro shouts as his eyes went off like a ticking bomb, consuming everything in front of him.

The wave pushing Yuki backward as she almost got to him, she lands on the ground hard. The wind blew harshly around from the sudden power surge, they stood their ground so that they wouldn't get blown off, then it dies down suddenly.

Hiro quickly used the leather to cover his eyes back as he drops to his knees, palms on the ground, taking harsh breaths, blood trailing down on his cheeks like tears, the leather material staining instantly, the blood dripping to the ground.

The energy surge out of Hiro's eyes laid destruction to the Kaiju's, the path in front of him nothing but red sands from the heat and steams evaporating to the skies,

"All the Kaiju's," Shino said with trembling eyes.

"Are gone" Ten finished for him, as they all stared at the amount of destruction Hiro caused with his eyes.

"Hiro is alive?"

"He's alive?"

"He's dead isn't he?"

"How's this possible?"

Whispers around from the bio-genetics still recovering from what just unfolded before them, all in awe.

Ten rushed to Hiro's side along with Shino.

Ten grab Hiro by the arm holding him steady.

"Your eyes are bleeding," Ten said panicking.

"Hiro," Shino said with shaky eyes.

"You should be dead" he adds.

"That's what everyone keeps saying," Hiro said puzzled.

"Was I really dead?"

Shino and Ten tensed at his words.

"You can't be serious," Ten said with a ghost smile.

Footsteps approached them, it was Yuki, she just stood behind watching with an unreadable expression.

Hiro's body tensed. 'This familiar feeling'. Hiro thought turning his head slightly, he froze as a bead of sweat trailed down his forehead, her aura it was... His eyes shake at the color and it belonged to Yuki.

"You idiot!" Homura hissed gaining their attention.

"Homura?" Daiki said with shaky eyes.

"Hey weren't you among the first team that heads back to base?" Kaname asked haste.

Whispers filled around.

Homura's body tensed at their words.

"Ryoji, what happened to the others? Why are you here?" Shino demands walking close to him.

Homura hung his head in shame as his body trembles.

"Well? Answer the question!" Mary hissed.

"The others" he began faintly but they heard him.

"The others didn't make it"

The wind blew harshly as dead silence filled the area, all had wide eyes.

"The others," Shino said with trembling eyes.

"Didn't make it?"

"No way," Ten said with sad eyes.

"This is horrible!"

"Are we gonna die too?!"

"Are we ever gonna get out of this, alive?"

"We're gonna be Kaiju food too!"

Whispers and panic filled around the bio-genetics.

Mirai stir awake, groaning weakly, Kaneki holding her in his arms noticed, a bandage was tied around her head by Yumi.

"Mirai! Hey, are you okay?" Kaneki asked worriedly.

"Mirai-chan," Yumi said with teary eyes.

Kaneki wraps his arms around her more. 'Mirai' he thought with clenched teeth.

"Just look at us" Sumi began.

"The one who's dead is suddenly alive and now we're stuck in a place most likely surrounded by Kaiju" She states gaining their attention.

"I mean Hiro might have taken care of them but how sure are we there aren't more" she adds.

"There's more!" Hiro states.

He rose to his feet by himself, not taking Ten's hand, he stood before them, their attention now on him.

"I can feel them" he adds.

"What does a blind boy know," Sumi said in a mocking tone.

"I don't know I just feel it, I can feel every one of you, just like I felt you guys were in danger," he said.

He turned to the side as if sensing Ren was a few feet away from him.

"I also know you're there, Ren," he said.

Ren's fist clenched hard as his looks darken, Hiro turns fully to Ren.

'It's like, he can see' Ten thought with shaky eyes. 'His senses are hastened but differently, he's still blind'

Hiro used his arm to wipe the blood off his cheeks, before bringing it down.

"Ren" he began.

With clenched teeth, Ren came at him, in a flash his tighten fist connected with his cheek, hard.

Everyone was stunned by what he did, on seeing this Yuki's eyebrow flicked together pissed, she took a step forward.

"Yuki!" Hiro hissed without even facing her, one hand out indicating she should stop.

Yuki stops abruptly at his actions.

He turns his head facing Ren back, his cheek bruised.

"Re-"

Another hard punch came, yet another and another until Hiro falls to the ground.

"This has to stop," Ten said with clenched teeth about taking a step forward.

But stop when Mizuki placed a hand on his shoulder, Ten turned to him.

"Mizuki"

He shakes his head negatively signifying that he shouldn't interfere.

"You may be smart Ten, but not everything you can understand" he states with a stern look.

"Well I do understand this, Hiro is being beaten to a pulp while we're watching! He literary saved our life don't you see that?!" Ten hissed.

"I know, we all know but take a look Ten, at everyone," Mizuki said.

Ten paused at his words as he did, he froze seeing the look on their faces all had a sad expression, Yuki a dark look, mostly unreadable. Ten's eyes widen in realization. 'I see' he thought facing the scene back.

"Hiro, you idiot!" he said faintly. 'Do you blame yourself that much?'

Hiro was on the ground, Ren on him as he kept punching Hiro on the cheeks on both sides. Ren cried as he did.

"Why?! Why?! Why?!" he hissed in tears as he kept punching and punching, Hiro's face all bloody, he then stops abruptly unable to keep up.

"WHY AREN'T YOU STOPPING ME?" he shouts while crying and sobbing like a child.

"D-Do I have to?" Hiro said shaky, his jaws hurt from talking.

Ren sobs facing him.

"Rin" he began as a tear slide from under the white blood-stained leather covering his eyes.

"Is dead because of me"
