Chapter 36 - 36 The Week's End(Part 7)

"I'm i, getting attached to them?" Null questioned himself.

But in his purple eyes a pink glint of amusement flashed.

"Actually quite the opposite, there just so interesting, so random and i need a distraction."

He sighed.

"That boy with the name Nightmare is a problem by himself, and Jern is training his ability, meaning that there planning something." Null paused remembering what Ronald said. "Or there preparing for something..."

With that thought Null groaned, slumping into his couch.

And a face of agitation clear, his blue eyes flaring.

He sat up grabbing at his hair, his teeth clenching.

The heel of his foot, already tapping against the floor, rapidly.

[Host, is currently being effected by outside influence's]

[Will stat, not high enough to withstand the influence.]

[Adding assistance of Intelligence stat]

[Intelligence stat, high enough to slow down the influence.]

"Wh..what is the system talking about." Null said agitated, than a memory popped up in his head.

The memory of the crazed girl.

"So, is this how she felt." Null groaned,"I knew he did something to me with his ability, I've been on edge, and uneasy but, this is som..." He didn't finish that sentence as he began groaning in frustration.

[The slowing effect of the outside influence, has failed and the slowing effect is no more present]

Ezze, entered the dorm room, as she walked passed the door which, close after a few seconds.

Her gaze met with, purple as she looked at the current slumped boy, with unkempt hair and a slight sign of sweat.

She, came in with a tense face then, gained a confused expression.

She raised her hand and gave him a thumbs up as she jumped on top the couch facing him.

"I..I'm okay, nothing's wrong." Null replied, then he leaned forward.

"What about you, you seemed tense when you entered here?" He questioned.

Her face went awkward, than she looked away, eyes closed.

She sighed, she had her lips tight and frustration clear on her face.

She looked down on the device on her wrist, and typed.

"I'm not going to see, my family for a while and maybe not ever again."

She had, a sadden face, tight lipped and droopy eyes.

Null, had limited experience about comforting people, that was new territory in it's self but...

He didn't like the expression on her.

Normally she was more chipper but, she wasn't, right now he saw someone worried.

"I'm sorry, if I'm intruding but, who won't you see and how, what's stopping them except this?" He said twirling his finger to his surroundings.

Ezze slowly typed, realizing her grandpa was sent to the front lines, there was no front lines when they got into the military school, meaning that the...

She hesitated to even think about it...

She had, heard stories, saw pictures that her grandma had shown her and the video from the lesson on them...

The lesson on the Domineer's.

The war was no joke, through out the war, the accumulated death through out the war, was easily over a billion.

Through out the war people, traveled to different planets, on these planets humanity spread, currently they were inhabiting about 11 planets they were called colonies, not including planets used for beast hunting, just mainly used planets for colonizing.

It used to be 12, all of them having billions on them...

But one was taken over and all signs of a human life left was abysmal.

They were easily 3 billion people on that planet.

And, it was decimated and humanity didn't inhabit it anymore because the Domineer's used it as one of their base's, that planet was easily the same size as Earth.

And that was over 2 centuries ago, and the government used under handed tactics to increase the birth rate, and due to Meta-genes increasing the capabilities of a human being they had longer life span's the stronger they got, and due to the increase in technology disease's are barely present and, medicine's actually doing what there supposed to the age which a human dies is in the 90's.

Null could see her finger hesitanting over the device, including the beads of sweat on her face.

"Let's communicate."

When Ezze heard those words, she looked at Null and erased what she wrote on her device.

"You seem tense so, if you want to let's communicate some more?" He suggested.

"With out the device."

Ezze nodded, she still had buried remnants of her previous mood but, she just wanted to do something she enjoyed.

Null began with a question.

"What, is your family like?"

Ezze pondered, then she raised one hand and used the other to fan herself, then she lowered her hand till she began shaking.

Then she stopped and looked at Null expectingly.

Null pondered then answered.

"Cold?" He asked.

Ezze shook her head.

"Cool?"

She shook her head.

"You're family is chill?"

She thought about his answer.

'Close enough.'

She nodded.

"So, there just nice to be around?" Null asked.

She nodded.

Null imaged a three member family that sat around, quiet but enjoyed each other, just being there together...

"Peaceful..." He muttered to himself.

Ezze grew a small smile and her emotions bubbled up, than something that Null hasn't seen Ezze do...

Snarled.

She snarled and proceeded to the room.

Leaving Null alone.

He was surprised by the turn of events.

Then his eyes turned blue, but they weren't crazed, they were still.

He lifted up his sleeves and red...

Red, lines from his shoulders too his forearm and his nails caused it.

[-3 HP]

[Your'Will' stat has increased from 20>>>21]

Even though he lost 3 HP he healed up but lost some energy, but he didn't care, he stood and went to his room bathed and went to bed to sleep.

He hoped he would sleep in, it was going to be the weekend, so no classes, but there was...

This feeling that he could not shake off, this was why he didn't train if he did his body wouldn't be ready for unexpected changes.

And more he thought of it, he remembered what Ronald said.

"Boy, watch out for those with beast weapon's, and those in Grade 2 and 3, and when you gain a feeling of danger, when you come close to a person..."

"Run.." Null muttered the word for himself.

That night, Null kept swaying in the bed, he wanted to sleep, he couldn't and not even given such the possibility of such.

He got out bed.

---------Friday 23:40AM

He got out his room and proceed to the kitchen and took out the milk.

"Better my bones, better my blood." Null said with less enthusiasm then the last he did so.

Then he heard a giggle and saw Ezze tight lipped, holding back a giggle.

This expression he liked to see.

He put back the milk, and took out two dishes filled with food.

"Go, sit at the couch." He said.

But Ezze stood there playfully, hands crossed, pouting looking to the side playfully.

Null chuckled.

'She, really thinks of me are as a friend.' he thought.

"Sit and eat or, keep posing in your red panda P J's." Null said as he proceed to the couch.

Ezze realized she was in her pajamas.

So she sat on the couch and she ate from the dish.

Null's food is always so nice...

But how though..?

His 14 right?

Anycase, she was enjoying a nice time with her friend.

But that doesn't last.

---------Saturday 00:00am

At that very moment the entrances, exits were blocked with Ro'gaire walls.

A siren rang and a voice came through.

In every classroom..

Dorm rooms

Hallways.

The voice of the Head general.

"Green horn's, if you had plans for this weekend throw it into the gutter. The base is in lockdown, and it will end on Monday when classes began once again, for now you all will be left to your own devices, for this weekend...

No security

No super—vision

No general's

No Me."
