Rise-1:00 AM
So, as I said it's been a year since The Change and I spent most of that time learning about the world and the rest of it I spent training myself to fight. I know my skills will never be as good as someone professionally trained but a year of almost nothing but training myself with whatever weapons I could find has made me, at least, capable of using these weapons without hurting myself. I'd like to train more and I will when I can, but every second I wait more people are dying so today's the day. I'm going out and I'm going to start fixing the world.
When I woke up in The Midnight Hotel that first time I was still wearing my school uniform minus my socks. I'm still wearing it though slightly altered. Katherine's effect only seems to affect sentient beings and she's apparently a very good seamstress. She took my school uniform and some extra fabric and made me a new outfit more fitting for fighting monsters.
The shirt was changed into a heavy hood attached to a hoody made out of a material that, probably isn't but, really looks like and feels like burlap. The front pocket, however, is specially made to be double holsters for my dual handguns. A pair of Beretta M9's I found on a dead body. At least Sera says they're M9's I don't actually know. All I know is they use pretty easy to find ammo and they kill things pretty easily.
My skirt has been lengthened and then changed into two pant legs. They're baggy but comfortable and I have a solution to the possibility of people grabbing them.
As for my weapons, I already mentioned my guns but I also carry a broadsword. It was a bitch to find one that was actually useful for combat but I eventually did. I'd always had a soft spot for swords. Scythes too but I'm aware they're impractical as hell for actual combat so I'm sticking with the sword. It's kept in a sheathe Katherine made for me that attaches to a belt, also made by Katherine. So, those are my short and medium range weapons what do I have for long range?
A Sniper Rifle. It's strapped onto my back with a leather, at least I hope it's leather, harness Katherine also made for me. Now, admittedly, I didn't train much with the sniper rifle or the guns. Most of my training time was spent on learning to use the sword appropriately. How hard can it be too use guns though? It's just point at the enemy and pull the trigger, right? A Sniper Rifle is even easier just look through the scope till you can see the target in the center of the cross hairs and pull the trigger.
Now that I'm done talking about myself let me tell you my plan. The world has been split up into territories. All ruled by different Illustrious. My old school is one of those places. It's referred to as The Nest now. See, turns out I wasn't the only illustrious there. There was another.
When the change hit I was being raped and then devoured in my bedroom and the headmaster gave into his own urges and began trying to fuck as many girls as possible. Unfortunately one of them was the other illustrious and her special power is the ability to give birth to horrific monsters.
After The headmaster raped her she got pregnant and in a short time, I believe it was a week, she gave birth to a monster. The monster started slaughtering people throughout the school and grabbing girls. The Illustrious is now called The Brood Mother and she spends her every waking moment in labor giving birth to more monsters and the monsters have gathered up many of the students and made them into more breeders.
The entire place is just a huge monster factory at this point. So, the plan is to go back to school. Kill all the monsters, Mercy kill everyone else and stop the spread of these creatures into the world. Sound like a good plan? Yeah, I thought so too.
The Unchanged headquarters coincidentally isn't too far from The School actually so the trip there was pretty short and uneventful except for a small scene that occurred on the way. I came upon a large group of unfettered and quickly hid before they saw me. There were a ton of them. At least fifty. As I hid I heard the roar of flames and a female voice yelling obscenities. I peeked out of my hiding spot and noticed that there was a woman in the centre of the unfettered who was wielding flames and using it to fight them off.
She was doing pretty well. Her flames were downing quite a few of them but I could see her flames growing dimmer and I could hear exhaustion in her voice. I could also see quite a few scorched bodies and realized she'd been doing this for some time. I wanted to help her. I knew what was likely to happen to her.
Unfettered basically come in three forms. Those who become consumed by rage or merely sadistic enjoyment and are violent. Murderers and torturers. Those who become consumed by sexual urges and become rapists and those consumed by greed and become thieves and scavengers. There were probably some of all three in the crowd. As I said I wanted to help her, but... Logic stepped in.
There were too many. Even if I helped her out we'd eventually both be overwhelmed and she was an illustrious judging by those flames and that means it's very likely she's crazy and even if I helped her and we managed to survive she could just turn on me and roast me alive. I wanted to help, but I knew I couldn't afford the risks.
Instead I stayed hidden and made a plan. Some of them would spot me if I tried to move forward now. I'd have to wait until they were all completely focused on her before I tried to sneak past. After a few minutes of waiting I saw her try to summon a flame at the most recent wave and all that came forth was some smoke and probably some hot air. She slumped to her knees letting out a weak whimper as the unfettered descended on her.
The first to reach her were the greedy who started to tear off her clothes and any items she may have had. I could see her struggling weakly to hold onto her possessions as they were stripped from her then as the greedy ran off with their new prizes the rapists stepped forward to claim their prize. About five of them grabbed her pulling her to her feet and arranging themselves around her.
You might find this strange teamwork thing weird especially if you read my last entry, but while early on the unfettered were wild and animalistic and attacked anything they saw. As time went on they started to become more intelligent and began working together instead. Large groups like these consisting of multiple types aren't exactly common but they're not unheard of either.
She was bent over and I heard her scream as one of them forced himself into her ass. The scream was muffled as another entered her throat and another slid under her. Still being fucked by the other two she was lowered down until he was pushed into her pussy and then her hands were grabbed and wrapped around the cocks of the last two. I saw her strain momentarily and heard a loud moan. I figured that she had desperately tried to burn the cocks in her hands but had merely managed to warm her hands for them. They availed themselves of her for some time and soon it was time to make my move.
I apologized silently to her in my thoughts and attempted to sprint past. Apparently at least one noticed me as a hand suddenly caught on my hood and started to yank me back.
Remember how I said I had a plan for if people tried to grab my clothing? Well, this is it. I had Katherine weave shards of sharp glass into my clothing. They're harmless to me as long as I move carefully but someone grabbing and therefore squeezing the glass-laced fabric is in for a bad time. So, was it here.
As I started being yanked back there was a cry of pain from the man and he let go. I quickly turned, drew my sword and decapitated him then took off running before many more of them could take notice of me.
After that I eluded any who might have still been following and I reached the school. I caught my first glimpse of the enemy here. The school was a two story plain white brick building that stretched off on both sides but was pretty narrow from the front entrance to the back entrance. The front entrance was a simple set of two steel doors and steps under a small balcony extending from the second story. There was a monster on the balcony.
It looked almost like a spider but made out of tar and leaking some strange liquid from beneath it. Three sets of six eyes peeked out from it's head gazing over the horizon. It must have been a guard or something.
It wasn't moving so I figured it hadn't seen me yet and I stealthily approached. As I got within a certain distance though it suddenly acted. It's mouth opened spitting out a glob of warm tar that hit me in the chest knocking me to the ground. The tar slid over my chest and then solidified fusing me to the ground. The spider monster began to climb down towards me and I tried to reach my guns but it spat more of the tar stuff catching my hands just as I reached the hilts.
It crawled over me and then began to drool the tar stuff over my body. It hardened quickly creating a disgusting cocoon that held me in place. I looked up at the monster fearfully.
