Last Man On Earth When There Is No Earth ?

Planet Rooster, Gram city, Red Ramoul restaurant

"Cough…. Cough cough…"

As I pushed away the table resting on top of me the coughing started and refused to stop.

Just a moment ago we were enjoying begri before the sudden explosion sent us flying along with the furniture

"Urgh… shit I think I broke a finger…"

Oh for the!!! Not my upper left arm!! This will surely effect my work

""RRRYAAAAAHHH!!!!"

The pain from hand was numbed by the high pitched screams as several other customers emerged from underneath the ruble. The bortokali, bathed in sauce and dust, screamed and cursed trying to clean themselves. The hair that covered them from top to bottom is now contaminated and for those higher class clan members who take unimaginable pride in their appearance , more than the average bortokali, this situation must be their worst nightmare coming to life.

"Sigh…."

Damn you and your ridiculous hair! At least you came out of it uninjured!

On another look it seems I'm the only one with bad luck this time, except for small bruises everyone seems to be just fine.

"You okay?"

"Yeah…" my coworker who I came here with during our break reached out with his hand and pulled me up to my feet.

As a deek he obviously had his whole body covered in feathers and although it's not on the same level as those bortokali, he doesn't wear much clothing since it restrict hiss movement. His originally white feathers are now covered in meat sauce, but unlike those orange screeching bastards he doeseem to be bothered by it.

"Sheesh, what in the great sun of Kun just happened?

"A bomb… maybe? I can't sense any heat so…"

Perhaps an engine, the blast was as powerful as EMAS 5T thrusters at full strength, but I can't see any scorching Mark's anywhere, not even at the center off the explosion.

Just then the one he pointed at began shaking in rage and made his way to the giant hole in the glass wall

"YOOUU!!!! JUST WHAT WERE YOU THINKING!!!?"

The one he is yelling at, a female Zesionien with golden hair and gorgeous features, looked dumbfounded at the furious orange male

"NO NO NO NO!! DON'T GIVE ME THAT!!!... JUST…..JUST LOOK AT THIS!!! I SAID LOOK AT THIS!!!"

The bortokali pointed at his arm, a huge brown stain painted it, b.u.t.t the female Zesionien looked at it, then at him, and her expression told that she didn't understand what's causing his anger

"YOU SERIOUSLYEXPECT ME TO…UURRRRGGGHHHHH!!!!"

He reached a point where his rage couldn't' be contained any longer and began stumping the floor over and over.

At that moment the golden haired Zesionien beauty appeared to have noticed something, she looked around as tension grew in her eyes

"SEVEN!!" She called out, but no reply.

Ignoring what the bortokali said she went to the tables thrown around and flipped them one by one with a single motion of her arms

"… seriously?..." I expected him to lose it after the treatment he got but instead he slowly regained his calm as he watched the Zesionien ffemale. He turned to the destroyed wall, looking down at something, then turned to the female, a long sigh escaped him as his shoulders dropped

"If you are looking at your little friend then he went that way" hearing what he said she came to a halt, her surprise was expected as he was pointing at the hole blown into the thick glass wall.

"What is he talking about?"

"Ah, you know how those bortokali don't have normal eyesight? They apparently use a combination of some other abilities to perceive their surroundings, it's said that they can see things other species can't normally see"

"I know that already, what little friend he is referring to is what I want to know"

"what do you mean? Wasn't she with someone the whole time"

What? Was she together with… oh right! There was someone else there, yes, he sat on the chair opposite to hers…

"Guess you were taken away by her beauty and didn't see him huh?"

The bortokali male explained to her what happened a few seconds ago.

It appears that a small herara snatched her companion's book and escaped through the windows near the ceiling. That at least was seeing by most of the other customers, but what happened next when her "little friend" chased after the thief wasn't caught by anyone other the bortokali with their superior senses.

Whoever or whatever he was, the hair on his hear turned white all of a sudden as he crouched down before jumping directly through the thick glass wall as if Was made out of paper.

The shockwave that sent everything in the room flying was nothing more than the result of that person flexing his legs as he jumped. It's not impossible, there are species capable of such feet, but none of them are that small in size. Unless he is a synth or something, but that doesn't explain why he was here or why he ate that meat.

"What kind of monster is capable of that…?"

"…a body guard I think?"

"….what?"

"Just think about it for a second, for a graceful looking female to wonder around with just one person by her side? It's not a surprise for him to be that strong"

That thing is way more of a weapon than a bodyguard

"Well, can't find any other explanation"

Well, whatever it is, damn it!

She is beautiful, I had my eyes on her the moment she came in and was in the middle of planning how to ask her out for a meal or a drink, but now that I know that that thing is with her, there is just no way I could. forget about that, we probably should get away from here before that thing returns.

I can hear several impact sounds in the distance, it seems the thief still hasn't been caught. The female Zesionien looked at direction of the racket came from, and as determination appeared in her eyes she took out a small rod from the small bag at her side. The rod extended and two red energy blades formed on each side.

She took a step back then flung the spear with strength unimaginable to someone with arms that thin, piercing it into the building on the opposite side. Just when we thought the craziness ended and started wondering why she did what she did, we watched as she sprinted at full speed toward the hole before jumping at the last moment with one foot at the edge.

My heart almost stopped seeing her up in the air. We all rushed to the window expecting to see her fall to her death and were relieved to see her hanging on to the spear she threw moments ago

"Ayaahh… crazy, that female is crazy…"

Agreed, I can't argue with that, that female is crazy… and she didn't stop at that. She lifted herself and managed to stand on the shaft of the spear. There is nowhere she could go to, the outside of the building is flat, from where we stood she seemed to be stuck and what's worse is that any moment now a strong wind could blow her away.

I'm sure many of the onlookers on both buildings had that thought before they saw her casually punch a hole into the glass. She apparently had some gauntlet like piece of armor hidden somewhere.

As the wind played with her hair she prepared for her next move, and before we could guess what it was she began running down in a diagonal line, pierced her spear into the glass once more at the edge of the building the swung on it three times before jumping to the next building. She repeated the process until she reached the ground a great distance from where we are.

"Wow…"

I heard that the Zesionien females are frighteningly strong and fearless but this…

"I guess the better their looks, the crazier they are…"

"yeah…" I couldn't agree more.

Maybe I should settle for a female of my own after all.

…..

Planet Rooster, Gram city

"Feuu~~…." More than four hundred feet in the air, the little thief exhaled the air she held in "un, that lady with the horns… almost got me… scary"

Using it as support the little thief leaped higher, when she reached the peek of the jump and started going down she made a second one before the speed of her fall accelerated. Seeing how she appeared to effortlessly move through the air makes one doubt she weighed more than a feather.

"Un, mission report. Successfully obtained both the device and the card…. Currently retreating"

"Good work, Blue" a voice came from the what looked like a hand watch "be careful not to get followed on your way back"

"Un, roger-"

Her ears suddenly turned around catching the sound of an explosion. Her body instinctively came to a halt forming a light screen which helped her jump to the side.

Not a moment later something passed the spot she stepped on at the speed of a bullet whistling through the air as it moved in a straight line before running into the ground then one of the stores.

"Um… Logan, I think… we have a serious… serious problem" the thief hastened her pace as she looked behind.

Down on thee ground a figure emerged from the dust cloud. His hair is white right now b.u.t.t it's easy to tell it's the human she stole the book from

"Un, uh, Logan…"

"Get out of there! Hurry!!"

The human crouched down, his muscles contracting as he searched the dark night sky for the little thief. His eyes lit up with a blue glim as he spotted her and a monstrous grin spread as air left his lungs.

A second after she took a turn around one of the sky towers, the little thief heard another explosion, then a third one, and all she could do was run at full speed. Her light step soles were unable to keep up so instead she landed on one of the roofs and continued her desperate escape.

"Um, uh, Logan… what's going on!"

"don't look back, just get to the meeting point, the captain is on h-" the voice was masked under the explosive sound of yet another collision this time closer than the last.

Frightened for her life the little thief further accelerated her speed as she made her way to the ground then followed a complex rout of alleyways before reaching the main street and hiding between the crowd.

But she couldn't relax just yet. He was up there, looking down from that height trying to locate her. Due to her size it won't be an easy thing to do, but her instincts kept screaming at her to get out of that place. Suppressing her presence as much as she could she ran toward the place where her colleagues are supposed to meet her.

She carefully made her way toward the southern area near the border, hiding in the shadows as the crowds got thinner and the buildings got smaller. No more buffy Zesionien males that could be used for cover and less alleys she could take.

But there was nothing to worry about, she no longer could feel the presence of that human. It's already been some time since she lost him so there was no reason for her to hide.

"Blue?"

"… captain…"

Walking a few steps down the road reached the meeting point she was told about. There the captain of her crew and twenty other members were waiting for her, some of them looked a bit annoyed at her arriving a few seconds late

"What's wrong? You look spooked"

"Un, that's-" then, just like before, her ears turned around catching the whistling sound of something cutting through the air. The rest of the crew also seemed to notice it as they all looked in the same direction. Their eyes caught sight of it a moment before it crushed into the ground shaking the whole slums and drawing attention from all around the place.

"I heard you were a monster but…" the captain said as he watched the human stand up.

He took two steps forward brushing the dust from his glowing white hair then opened his eyes and glared at the crew

"You want something from us?" the captain said as the little thief handed the book and the card over to him. His voice had no trace of fear even with what happened just now occurring right before his eyes, encouraging his subordinates to firmly stand their ground, ready to draw their weapons at any time.

The human looked at them in confusion. The electric energy sparking around him died down and his white hair slowly returned to it's typical jet black color, his eyes too lost their previous glow. Only the little thief who saw the way he was and how he changed was able to tell.

The human was switching back to his normal state, but that didn't mean they are out of danger or that he wont lash at them again. Now that the part was done she had no reason to stay and watch. She sneaked between her fellow crew members, slipped into the shadow of one of the buildings and left the area before anyone could notice.

"I will ask you again, you want anything from us, kiddo?" the captain bared his fangs in an attempt to intimidate the human, the difference in size was in his favor, as were the numbers and the arms. Killing him should be an easy task especially after his strange powers seem to have vanished.

'What an easy catch' they all thought to themselves. This thing? Dangerous? Was all those warnings a hoax? They were told he reduced a battalion of Zesionien soldiers to a bunch of corps but… they can't sense anything like that from him.

'Pathetic, he doesn't even know what's going to happen to him!' they laughed in secret imagining how his flesh would taste, what an ignorant fool he must be to not know when to flee.

The human squinted his eyes looking at their captain, the big guy standing in front of him. His confusion was apparent as he pointed his finger

After a moment of silence he asked only one question

"Don't you have a panda to fight?"
