Makki put his palm on his eye and took a deep breath.

"I'm..I'm ok, I just had a nightmare that's all"

"Oh, you really scared me for a second" Loyd laughed in relief.

"Oh sorry, I didn't mean to but I was having a terrible dream and it almost seemed real" 

"It's ok, it's no big deal" Loyd replied reassuringly.

"Wait!, I haven't introduced myself" Makki yelled.

"My name is Enen Makki and thank you for saving my life!" 

Makki bowed as he thanked Loyd for saving him.

"I promise to pay you back!" Makki yelled with a determined face.

"Oh no, it's fine honestly, I just didn't want to see someone die in front of my eyes" 

"Oh I see....but still thank you for saving me" Makki muttered softly as he lowered his head remembering past events.

Flashbacks appeared in Makki's mind of the near death experiences, haunting him as he started to remember the situation he faced back in his hometown Bham.

"I guess I will re-introduce myself too" Loyd shouted, breaking the tension.

"My name is Loyd Reno and my older brother who just left the house while you were asleep is called Lock Reno"

"you.. have an older brother?" asked Makki.

"Yes and everyone says we look alot alike but I don't really think so" 

"wow I that's amazing, I didn't know...

BANG! 

Suddenly a deafening sound erupted nearby.

"What was that!? " Makki screamed 

"I don't know but I'll go check it out right now, you stay here" 

"But I'm fine, I'll be able to go with y....

Loyd ran out before Makki got to finish his sentence.

He darted out the living room sliding on his shoes and out to the front of the house.

While Loyd rushed out the house, Makki thought to himself, 'I need to go see what happened myself'

'I hope this isn't what I think it is'

Then he made a conclusion and decided to make an attempt to look out the window first.

'Urgghhh' Makki screamed as he struggled to move out of bed. 

His wounds were still unhealed causing him pain for every physical movement he made.

But with all of his willpower and determination, Makki mustered up the courage to force himself to get out of bed.

Makki, now all sweating and burning in pain, he managed to get out of bed and stand up.

His limbs had somewhat regained functionality allowing Makki to use this advantage to get move.

He grabbed onto the bed and trampled forward holding onto nearby furniture and objects.

He plowed through the living room towards the window.

He pressed his hands and face on it and peeked outside searching for the cause of the bang.

Meanwhile Loyd was outside, glancing around to find the location of the sound.

Glancing around, he came across the houses on the right side of lane. 

He couldn't believe his eyes.

A humongous explosion had just took place right on his own street. 

Fire spread devouring the houses like prey.

'WHAT JUST HAPPENED' Loyd thought in heavy confusion.

Slowly he trudged closer to the houses caught up in flames.

The flames generated a huge smokescreen covering almost half the street affected.

Screams and panicking erupted causing the tension in the air to become chaotic.

Loyd covered his mouth with his hand to avoid inhaling the smoke as he moved closer.

Suddenly Loyd could hear rumbling.

He squinted hard in the smoke and observed carefully to the rumbling origin.

Gradually, visibility in the smoke became stronger allowing Kami to start seeing some shadows.

But something was wrong.

Strangely, there was a number of shadows all lined up, appearing closer in the same pace.

'what the hell is that' Loyd thought as he cautiously moved closer.

All of a sudden, terror shot up through Loyd's entire body and froze on the spot.

He had been paralysed in fear of what he just witnessed his two eyes.

Up ahead...stood a wave of soldiers armed with swords, guns and explosives.

Loyd immediately knew what was going on...

His hometown had now been under an attack.
