16 Saving Private Loli

It wasn't all too long before Neo was forced awake due to both the sounds of the protesting at the bridge and the simple fact that she was starting to suffocate under Shizuka's breasts. She wasn't even going to try and guess her cup size. As soon as she groggily sat up, she noticed Miki was staring her down with a fervent, almost worshipping gaze along with a few of the other girls. All of whom were poking their heads up from the staircase.

~That's starting to get concerning..~ Shaking her head, she pulls up the system notifications she got back when she killed Hisashi and Takashi.

Neo figured Takashi being the harder one to put down gave her more points. Luckily for her the 'kill him with copious amounts of fire' plan worked. Neopolitan often did have some pretty good ideas after all. Speaking of her partner, she noticed Neopolitan was still asleep, held tightly by Shizuka, who seemed to be having a nightmare. She figured all the girls would be having those, considering in one day they realized their childhood friend/lover was gone and replaced by imposters.

Hopping off the bed, Neo decided to check on them. She saw Rei and Saya were both sleeping on the couch. Rei's head was tucked into Saya's neck and she was hugging her tightly. Saya had been oddly comforting to her and was currently awake and rubbing her back. She made eye contact with Neo and puffed her cheeks in minor annoyance at being interrupted.

~Wish I had my phone for this softcore yuri scene..~ Neo gave her a knowing grin and a thumbs up before seeing Saeko finish cooking in the kitchen in nothing but a thong and apron.

"Well that's quite the outfit. Are you trying to seduce someone with that?" Neo raised her brows repeatedly in a teasing manner.

"I can say the same to you. Dressed up like that.." Saeko returned a coy smile to her.

"Oh certainly. If I was trying to seduce anyone though, it'd be my partner" Neo leaned back on the counter casually.

"Hm.. isn't that odd? It's the same body.. more or less?" Saeko glanced at her curves.

"You'd have to ask that to Neopolitan, really. I found her attractive before I got this body" She watched Saeko put stir-fry in a pot and happily grabbed some in a bowl, starting to eat.

"I suppose it may be narcissism. Or perhaps it's your personality she's attracted to" Saeko ruminated and grabbed herself a bowl before turning the stove off.

"Both? Both is good" Neo muttered with a mouth full of food.

"Are you bringing any of us back? I know Rei has her Father. Saya has her Mother and Father. Miss Shizuka said her parents were overseas. Perhaps those fangirls you made?" Saeko joked at the last one.

"Ugh no.. I'll find a way to get Saya and Rei back to their families. Might just drop Rei off at Saya's estate. Which has held up really well by the way. Only thing that could have fucked it up is dead now. Your Dad's overseas too, right?" Neo had to re-plan what her next actions should be.

"Right. I'll likely be fine with Rei and Saya. They've come to bond in a sort of way, I found. I think they relate well to each other and have formed a bond over losing someone important to them.." Saeko smiled at the situation being mended at least somewhat.

"Yeah I saw. It was cute how cuddled up they were" Neo nodded.

"Yes I think they'll be just fine from now on" But just as Saeko said that, they heard soft smacking sounds.

Both of them peeked around the corner and saw that Rei, who seemed to be a little drunk, was currently kissing Saya quite deeply. Saya though, hadn't overtly rejected her advances and was even attempting to reciprocate her advances, albeit clumsily. Turns out, the sounds were just Saya returning Rei's fervent kisses poorly.

~I've somehow got a hand in this.. I don't know how... but I know I'm the cause.. It's beautiful..~ Neo almost shed a tear.

Saeko just blinked and returned to the kitchen.

"Yes it seems like they bonded quite deep.. Though I'm sure the alcohol helped? I'm sure they'll be fine" Saeko muttered the last part.

"Oh they're doing more than fine.." Neo winked.

Before that train of thought could go any further, they heard the sound of frantic knocking across the street. Neo, knowing what this was, simply took out Playboy Plunder from her inventory and quickly walked upstairs to the balcony.

Rei and Saya were snapped out of their moment and ran after Neo with Saeko.

"What's going on? Rei and I were.. uh.. sleeping so-" Neo put a finger up.

"It's fine. Some guy's trying to get into an occupied house a little further away. Also I ship you two ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°" Neo gave her a look that made Saya and Rei's faces light up red.

Before they can say anything though, Neo hopped down to the streets where zombies had started to gather again. Turning her weapon to its glaive mode, she ran into the horde.

She spun her body and swung an arc of the halberd, splitting zombies in half before starting to effortlessly hop on their heads. She made her way to the house where the Dad was knocking and saw the door open. Kicking off a zombie's head, she made it just in time to block the impromptu spear wielded by a terrified man.

"That's not very 'freaking' nice.. All he wants is for his little girl to be safe. Now, normally I would inflict just a little bit of violence upon you but.. Today's your lucky day! In front of a little girl, I have to act like a role model. Now kindly go 'bleeping' 'BLEEP' yourselves and go back inside while I do what you're too chicken to do.." Neo closed the door for the shocked people inside and scoffed.

"Wanna come to my place?" She asked amicably.

"Will you really let us? It doesn't have to be me too but at least Alice.. please" He practically begged.

"Oh you're coming too. A great Dad like you is a precious commodity. Now look away while I 'unalive' the zombies outside" Neo whistled as the Father covered the girl's eyes so she doesn't witness Neo's brand of 'DeadSpace' level dismemberment.

As soon as it was all-clear, he walked through the squishy and wet street behind Neo, who was wiping her blood soaked feet on a zombie's white shirt.

He was led inside, where he saw nothing but girls. All who were dressed as sorority girls in the videos he had to convince his wife he wasn't watching. He politely looked away and coughed before introducing Alice.

"Thank you so much for taking us in like this.. This is my daughter, Alice" He bowed and gestured to Alice, who was grabbing onto his pant leg.

"Nice to meet you, Alice. I'm Neo. The girl in the apron is Saeko. Girl in the white clothes is Rei. The pink haired girl is Saya. There are others but for now we should all get some sleep. Tomorrow we'll head over to the Takagi estate. They set up a decent safe haven over there" Neo let them all know.

Then they heard scratching at the bottom of the front door. Neo squinted and slightly opened it, seeing a small white dog with the tag 'Zeke' on his collar.

"..." Neo picked him up and looked him in the eyes while everyone else looked over in confusion.

"Your name is now Scrungo. You're comin' with us now" Neo closed the door and accepted the new member.

"Eh..?" The Father just seemed confused.

"Ahh I'm going to bed.." Saya sighed.

"Me too. Um.. Saya.. can I-" But she stopped as Saya grabbed her hand and led her downstairs without turning to them.

"Have fun? ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°" Neo gave the look again but got no response.

"So Father and daughter can sleep on the big bed. Neopolitan and Shizuka are sleeping on one side so there's room" Neo offered.

"No.. uh.. I'm fine if Alice just sleeps on the bed. I'll sleep nearby on the floor, thank you" The Father scratched the back of his head.

Zeke, now named Scrungo by Neo, followed Alice and her Father up to bed. Neo just looked at Saeko, who she noticed was staring at the dismembered zombies on the ground outside.

"You like violence, don't you?" Neo sat down on the couch nearby. Saeko didn't respond and held both her arms tightly.

"It's.. unsightly. I get this.. rush when I.. Even when you killed Takashi I just.. It was incredible to see.. I'm a monster, aren't I?" Saeko mutters to herself shakily.

"You're sadistic for sure but monster? That depends on your perspective I guess. I think of Hisashi and Takashi as monsters because they viewed you and would likely view anyone they desired as objects. May not seem so bad right now but if they lived.. I shudder to think what they would have done if given the chance" Neo sighed and rolled her neck.

"I suppose you're right.." Saeko nodded once.

"I won't say some cliche 'you're no monster in my eyes' type of crap. You're the one who truly decides who you are. All that matters is if you decide to embrace this side of you or shamefully hide from it and pretend it's not there. Been through that before so I'll just go ahead and give you some free advice. The first option will only hurt you and those you wanna care about. Goodnight, Saeko" Neo gets up and hears a whisper before going off to sleep.

"Thank you.." Saeko whispers with a small shudder.

-Mika's Flat, 9am-

Neo had slept a bit more but decided to spend time watching the emergency broadcast channel when she couldn't sleep anymore. There were far more interesting things to do, such as spy on Rei and Saya's slightly less drunken make-out session but that moment was for them, even if she now shipped them super hard. She watched the news and saw that, while it was getting worse, yes. There were also designated safe zones and people being brought out to many boats along the coast of Japan. It wasn't the absolute worst situation it could have been like she knew like what happened in series such as 'Left for Dead', 'Dying Light 2' or even worst of all, 'Dead Space'. So she figured she could drop them all off at Takagi's estate and from there, they can try to find Rei's Father.

Neo got up and started to get dressed as everyone had just begun to wake up.

"Alright people. It's time to get you to safety. Saya's house has really good defenses and multiple people manning them. That's where we're going. Cool? Cool" Neo put her hands in her pockets and announced to them all.

"Great! Now let's get moving" Neo started to walk back down to the bus and packed away all the food and useful things from the flat into the bus.

Shizuka shook the tired from her eyes and strapped in while the students, plus Alice and her Dad all got in.

"Okay! To the Takagi Estate we go! After that, my job is done" Neo took a seat next to Shizuka and whispered in her ear when she started to look depressed.

"Oh! Yes! Absolutely! Thank you.. Haha.. I'm so easy to read" Shizuka nodded with a very pleased smile.

"Glad to hear it. Now just hit 'yes'" Neo instructed her.

Shizuka pressed something invisible in front of her and Neo, Neopolitan, Blake and Pyrrha were all notified.

[Ding! Shizuka Marikawa was added to the Chatroom!]

"Lemme change that real quick.." Neo whispered.

[Shizuka Marikawa was changed to BoobaphysicsFTW]

"Yeeeeeeeesssss..." Neo cackled as Shizuka tilted her head in confusion.
