Memory data 03

We continued to walk for hours on end, there were hours when the tunnel became damp and cold, and I could hear the sound of running water, I was hungry, my brother's belly made sounds every few minutes.

We are already walking for a few hours, to be exact it was 100 minutes, as it marks in my head we walked for an hour and a few minutes, the night is still in effect and probably the Voids are still loose.

In the middle of my daydreams I can see the exit, or something that reminds me of the exit, is circular as the front door and as soon as we put the password opened discreetly, and with this we could see the outside.

We came to a hill near the pier of the city, all four cities have a pier, so it is convenient to exchange information or for mass migration at times of risk, as now.

The wharf was full, crowded with scared people, children cried in every place, women begged for their children's lives, men jumped from the wharf to the boats in despair.

I held Fernz's hand tight and moved on, Ivy in my arms hid her face in my nightgown, the gray sky gave the impression of an impending storm.

While walking I felt several pushes, but I continued to go to the crowded boat, because we were children without parents or out of pity, the man allowed us in easily, he has a familiar face, is probably known to my father.

Now that I stopped to think, I didn't see any acquaintances of my father or mother, the maid and the bodyguard of the family had also disappeared and remained only in the three.

With all the happiness and calm I walked in and sat on my back against the captain's cabin, ivy is sitting between my legs and Fernz on my left, the right is some random beggar. I thought it would be safer here, on the edges of the boat I was afraid ivy would fall.

I closed my eyes and put my head over hers, it was getting cold so the three of us got well together, everyone on this boat should have at least the D rank with a few in the E rank, their mutations are not fit for battle.

But the C to A rankers, they're out there fighting, probably...

"Noah?", the interrogative voice took me out of my safe space.

I looked up and saw the owner of a curly hair and actually a dirty face, for some gray dust.

"Namir ?", I don't know why I was surprised to see her here, since everyone in the city was here on the boat.

Her eyebrows were together, there was a lot of anger in her chest, for sure she suffered more than I, or not, I lost my mother...

"WHERE'S YOUR FATHER?!!!"

She screamed angrily, she had never yelled at me before, probably at anyone, she owns a calm personality and a gentle voice, but here she is, with her disheveled hair and torn clothes, even one of her sleeping slippers are missing.

"WHERE'S YOUR FATHER, IF HE SHOWS UP YOU CAN STILL SAVE THE CITY!!!"

I wanted to answer her, that my father was gone, but I just kept quiet and looked away, I turned away because his eyes were giving me fear, pure hatred, the kind that burns only from hitting from the front.

"MY FATHER AND MY MOTHER ARE FIGHTING, THEY'RE JUST RANK D, THEY'RE NOT MADE TO FIGHT, QUICKLY CALL YOUR FATHER".

As she screamed, more and more people around noticed my existence, and the more people noticed us, the harder words I heard.

"Look at the children, Ch"

"Where will your father be this time?"

"Surely he ran away and abandoned his family."

It was several minutes of people talking about us, some even begged me to call my father, but I can't, I held on to the tears that wanted to flow out of my eyes.

And that followed until he showed up, an old man, the chief guard, a rank A, said he could kill a Void with his bare fingers.

"Say Noah, where's your father?"

I looked into his calm eyes and just shook my head.

"and your mother, where's Driaden?"

Again I shook my head, but this time a tear slipped out of my left eye, a tear that I quickly wiped away, but wouldn't go unnoticed from an A rank.

"she was killed?"

This time I nodded my head, and my sister and was sitting with her head down trembled and sniffed, no doubt she is crying, Fernz next to me is staring at everyone, maybe he was traumatized by all this, because he has not spoken since we left the tunnel.

"I get it, grab them and throw them in the water."

I got up quickly, three grown men came and tried to grab my wrist, but before they did I shook my wrist and next to the swing flew the hand of the man who tried, the blood flew in my belly.

The warm blood, the man's cries of pain, all this made me anxious, but I couldn't vomit, I quickly lifted Ivy up and put her under my thumb, I also pulled Fernz and put him beside her.

"He's got the black moon, watch out".

He was surprised, but did not demonstrate, then the two men approached me more carefully, the man on the left activated his mutation and his hands became big, and with a harder appearance.

The other caused bones to come out of his forearms and cover them, so were his hands. Most likely both are rank C.
