They were noalking through the exchanging hall, and resting at a corner within the garoup of about seven people Each of these people seemed to be rather calm, despite a few of them had clear anxiousness written all over their faces

The a hints for Der's group to walk over, but those gestures suddenly stopped when this group noticed that Der and the two young girls, were going towards the bridge, and therefore to the direction opposite to the stairs for the deck

Not a as spoken, until

”MOM! DAD!” Shouted the youngest of the two girls in elation She had just noticed that, ast these seven people, were her parents

For as hters reunite, he didn't have the tiirl's irls by the back of their shi+rts, and threw theroup

HWIIIISS

Without rabbed their two daughters with their arms, while the noise was covered by the sudden whistle that Der had let out

Knowing that he only had instants before one or more monsters dashed towards him, and that he had no way to run, Der simply bent his knees and made himself as small as possible This decision was one made out of instinct, and therefore, he had no time to hope to survive But a roup looked as ahead, cutting a stripe of his hair down to his scalp, and once through, ended straight into the chest of a second monster that had arrived from the opposite direction

Just like they would usually do, the two e blows, and stos, all around Der, and iven moment But that didn't happen Instead, the monsters lost interest as usual after a fes They roamed around the room for a few minutes, and left froroup looked at Der with eyes opened wide in shock They couldn't believe that a human could be that lucky He was still crumpled up into a ball, and his clothes were all torn apart, as many of the attacks hadn't simply missed But had actually missed by just a few millimeters

Der quietly stood back up, and let a back-twisting shi+ver run down his body He hadn't only survived the , as he was covered in the rotten pieces of flesh that the monsters had ripped off of each other

He silently took off the external part of his clothes, and remained with a simple shi+rt, pants, and shoes, which while had been worn for days now, they were rather clean when coroup approached Der, and as he noticed the irls, he said through a wisp of sound essence ”I thought that all of the officers had left along with the captain”

The woed expression She clearly wished that she could let out all of her frustration for so that had happened in the past, but she couldn't, as she had no comprehension of sound essence

On the other hand, her husband, which was the second in command of the entire shi+p, looked at Der and said ”We would have never left while leaving our two girls here We have tried to stop Captain Nura, but he didn't listen to reason”

”Well, they haven't made it far We have seen the shalop explode the h the shi+p's shi+eld four days ago” Responded Der

”You've protected our girls for so long I have no words to thank you” Said thea face filled with e whether his two daughters had survived this massacre or not And for the ht have been better if he had never found out the truth

As the woest of her daughters down, and quietly gave hi as hard as she could the urge to cry, and express her thanks out loud

After a couple of roup and try to reach his friends, but as he was about to walk towards the bridge, the father of the two girls stopped hi out that, when this group had ventured out in order to reach the bridge where Daniel was, they had seen a sroup of monsters buried underneath the corridor that ulti the passage completely

”You are the second in couy that is sending out the announcement needs to do in order to follow his plan?” Asked Der with hurry

”If he wants to veer from the planet He will need to reach the propulsors, and activate them” Responded the man plainly

”Okay okay Can you tell et there?”
