"TOUKA!!!"

At the sound of Anzai's voice, she was snapped out of the illusion of her dying.

Instantly Anzai came in between, Touka lands in front of him, he held her firm, before turning to shoot at the Kaiju, it was sent backward at the force of the bullet, blood splashing as it did.

"General Anzai," Touka said with shaky eyes.

He faced her.

"Are you okay?" He asked.

She nods, her eyes shake on the verge of tears, she really thought she was going to die.

"Thank you," Touka said as her eyes circled in tears.

Anzai smiled faintly, relieved she was okay.

***

Hachiro took a deep breath of relief his heart almost gave out when he thought the Kaiju's mouth would have swallowed her whole.

All driving actions were seized, all still recovering from the shock.

"You ride with me," Anzai said.

Touka nods going behind and straddling the Hellhound.

"Everyone let's ke-"

"GENERAL ANZAI!!" Ten shouts gaining all their attention.

"Ten" Shino said with shaky eyes.

"It's the sound!" Ten hissed.

They were puzzled by his words.

"What's the kid trying to say?" Kenta said getting irritated by the delay, they should get moving already.

Kashi just gulps hard behind him, he was shaking tremdously in pure fear.

"That sound is coming from the Alpha!" Ten hissed once again.

"The Alpha?" Anzai and Touka said in unison.

In response to that another shocking roar came again.

Kaijus burst out of the building, a cluster of them, like in slow motion, they all raised their heads as their eyes widen in horror.

The Kaijus launched downwards roaring.

***

Hiro took harsh unstable breath, sweating profusely, the hot temperature of the sun wasn't helping either. His hands holding his gun trembled.

With deep harsh breath, he rested his head on the boulder behind him.

*Loud Snarl Sound*

His body tensed just by the mere sound of it.

"They are still lingering," Yuki said, a foot away from him.

"They got us trapped here" she adds, observing the Kaijus from the small space, seeing their abandoned Hellhounds on the open road.

Some of the Kaijus bounced on it but couldn't get it destroyed.

She remembered the attack all of a sudden, they fought back but couldn't outrun them, most of them got eaten in the process some hid like they were right.

Their comms were no longer working, they were separated from the rest, who knew whether they were still alive.

Right now Hiro and Yuki were hiding in a building, in between boulders but they didn't know how long they will last before the Kaiju's find them

"We can't get through to the others," Hiro said gulping hard.

Yuki turns to him blinking.

"At this rate" his teeth clenched, his body trembling at the fate that could await them.

"We will all be dead before we even set foot on Fukuoka, the mission will be over right before we even finish it".

"Hiro" Yuki began.

"We have to find the Alpha!" He snaps.

Yuki froze at his words, he faces her.

"Ten was right... that sound came from the Alpha just like he called it, the Kaiju we saw one year ago" he states.

"Just like any wolf pack, for example, a pack is usually made up of an adult male and female wolf and their offspring of various ages. Pack sizes range from three to twenty wolves. A wolf pack has a definite social structure and rules of conduct.... but this is different, we are talking about a pack of Kaijus, led by only one Alpha, the only one we have seen so far" he said, the way they attacked, the cluster, it was just like a pack.

"If this is a pack of Kaijus then how many will they be?" Yuki asked.

"We need to find Ten," Hiro said sternly.

"He must have already figured it by now... the numbers" he adds for certain.

***

A far distance away, inside a skyscraper building at a top floor.

Ten, Haya, Sand, Raiden, and Aimi hid there.

"Ten," Haya said with worried eyes watching as he types on a mini keyboard, completely focus on the computer showing on the hand gauntlet he wore on his left hand.

'How many... how many' he thought driven by the desire to find out as he did the analysis, calculating from the very first time they were attacked by the Kajius. He had to figure it out, now they knew the Kaijus were controlled by the Kaiju different from the rest with a menacing roaring sound like a command, a Kaiju Ten called the Alpha. The Alpha was the one leading the pack of Kaiju's from the very beginning if he calculated correctly. Could there be more packs?  He wasn't sure for now... all he knew was he had to figure out their numbers, fast.

Sand was seated on the floor, his back against the wall, his mind still reminiscing Hanka's death, his lips pressed in a thin lean.

"Still replaying it in your head huh?" Aimi seated a foot away from him said, her feature dull and unreadable, her face covered in dirt and some bloodstains just like the rest.

Sand turns to her.

"My roommate got eaten... I couldn't do anything because I was far away, if I had the will I would have changed it, but there was nothing I could do, we lost a lot of our friends today... she was my best friend, the first I have ever had" Aimi said.

"Before Black Storm Day, before this nightmare, I wasn't play well with others... but Hanka, she was different, if only we could have ridden together, then I would have protected her" she adds as the tears fell on their own accord.

Sand's hair covering his eyes slowly raised up, his eyes wide in shock.

Aimi faced him with teary eyes and flushed cheeks.

"You should have protected her," she said sternly, the tears sliding down her cheeks.

"You should have been the one to attack the Kaiju's that moment... while she rides" she adds with clenched teeth.

The tears fells down Sand's cheeks his eyes still wide.

"She's only dead because you let her go".
