The Repeaters

35. After the fight

"Leo!"

"Arise Leo!"

A girl was trying to wake the young man who was still weakly asleep on his bed. Although the girl tried to wake him up, but the young man was still weakly asleep. No, the word asleep was less precise, the young man looked like he had fainted which is why this girl was so worried.

The girl had long blonde hair. His blue eyes looked at the face of the young man who was still fainting. He was more worried if the young man named Leo never woke up. He had been sitting by his bed since this morning. Wish he woke up quickly, but did not materialize.

Tears dripped in his blue eyes, his heart was hot when he imagined the young man would never wake up. He had just lost his precious friend, it was inconceivable that the young man he loved would end up with the same fate.

"Hiks. hyks.. Leo! Wake up you fool!"

Wiping away the falling tears, he tightly grasped the fainted young man's hand using his right hand very tightly hoping for a miracle to happen.

And the miracle was realized, Leo gradually opened his eyes. With a sick body all over him he forced himself to lift his body. Slowly but surely by this time he had managed to lift his body, his white eyes met Lily's blue eyes that were full of water.

"Lily ye"

The blonde girl directly hugged the young man's body very tightly, although the tears were still flowing, she felt happy at least this young man was fine.

"Uwaa, Leo.. hiks.. Thank goodness you are fine!. hiks... I am worried lo, why did you not wake up from earlier?! You idiot!"

Hearing what Lily said, Leo could only smile. Same with Lily, Leo was also very grateful if the blonde girl was okay. He wrapped his hand and returned the hug tightly.

".. I'm really grateful! I'm afraid you'll end up with Monika.."

Leonardo's eyes opened wide again, he again remembered the death of Monika. The previously tight hug slowly became weak.

* Strike

An open door featured a male figure with yellow hair as well as red eyes. He carried some p3k-like medicine on both of his arms, once he entered he was surprised at the sight of the warm embrace.

To be honest he thought that, he entered at the wrong time, but it was stupid.

"You finally wake up senior."

Razor stepped closer to the two people who were still hugging it. Realizing Razor's existence, Lily quickly let go of the hug and looked at Razor with an expression as if saying 'i did nothing so forget', but Razor only replied with a sigh.

He put the p3k to the table and sat on a chair with Leonardo's mattress.

"Yo, do you know. Senior slept for more than 4 days lo."

Trying to be relaxed and calm is what Razor does, but her heart says something else.

"So that's it, over 4 days huh."

Razor's calm nature back she can't lie her expression back from it. He looked at Leonardo seriously.

"Senior, do you remember what happened a few years ago?" Razor confirmed because Leonardo had a wound on the head that is quite severe

Leo gripped the blanket on his bed tightly, he vented out the emotion in the grip.

"Yes, of course I remember! That failure.. It's all my fault!"

"No, it's not entirely your fault."

Right, it's not the senior's fault, if I'm aware of Edward's whereabouts. This is not gonna happen.

And also, the senior forgot the memories. He's ultimately the same as a rookie, I shouldn't have relied too much on him..

Razor opened her eyes, she looked at Leonardo with a sad look.

"By the way, senior than to think of this. You better go to Monika's grave with Lily.. Monika would be happy if you guys visit."

After saying that the situation again became awkward, whether intentionally or unintentionally Razor had opened a topic that should not be.

Monika's grave, hearing that of course Leonardo and Lily became silent. Lily dropped her tears, this girl still did not want to accept the dark fact. Even when he and Razor were at the tomb a few days ago, Leo was still dozing off. The girl continued to cry incessantly.

Leo was the same, he did not want to accept the cruel fact, in his heart was also broken full of sadness and anger. But it was strange how much sadness he had. He can't shed tears.

But Leonardo has not actually seen Monika's tomb. If it will please Monika's spirit then she will visit him.

"Yes, you're right. He would be happy if we visited. Go Lily!"

Trying to be calm, she stood up from her bed and held onto Lily's head which was still crying, she stroked the Head gently.

Leonardo wanted to wait until Lily finished crying and the two of them were gone. After a while Lily finally stopped crying, she wiped the tears using a tissue.

"I've improved. Go Leo!"

Despite saying that, but Lily's eye bags are very red, anyone will realize that she just cried. Leonardo does not blame that.

"By the way, Razor aren't you coming?" ask Leo.

Razor shook her head. "I didn't first. Looking at the tomb, it's like it's piercing my heart."

"So then, come to the tomb sometime. Monika would be happy if the three of us went to see."

After that Lily and Leonardo left Razor, who was silent on the seat. Razor stared at their shoulders, which were disappearing for more and more.

After feeling empty, the man uttered a heart word that he had been holding back.

"Damn! I'm really pathetic.. How sad! Monika, the girl has even just learned to smile, laugh, know what friendship feels like, and she just felt your love! Why did it all end this way."

Razor is still devastated by Lily's death. Well, anyone would feel that.

"In addition, even this city has fallen apart. And the result is like this! Monika is finally dead."

Lily and Leonardo walk to Razor's grave. Along the way they saw some previously solid buildings had been destroyed, many residents were staring at the two of them with cynicism and various unpleasant conversations in horror also attacked their ears.

"Damn! It's all two people's fault, our city's ruined."

"That's right, if only they hadn't interfered and followed what Mr. Edward said this wouldn't have happened."

"We ourselves follow that person not because we like. It's for the sake of mutual safety, which is why we're acting so cruel and pretending not to see the evil they're doing. That's how we survive."

"But shouldn't we be grateful? Thanks to them, Edward finally went away."

"Don't joke! you think how many lives were lost to Edward's anger."

Amidst the journey of the two of them, it was no more precisely Leonardo realized. That all the citizens of the city of OZ does not mean evil, the wrong is Edward. People do what they want for their own safety. There used to be many who rebelled, but in the end they all died.

And Leonardo realized that after they fled, some of the residents were mass-murdered by Edward, no matter the children, parents, women, even those who were still always loyal to Edward, they were all killed just to get rid of Edward's emotions.

A really cruel person..

Leo bit his lips once again.

""It's all your fault!!""

The screams of the little boy echoed enormously. To make the two men stop their steps and look at the little boy.

He seemed to cry as if a heartbreaking incident had happened to him. The little boy threw a small rock and stared intently at Leo and Lily.

A daughter might be her brother hugging the child, she said.

"Calm Teo!"

The boy named Teo pushed his brother. He walked right in front of Leonardo.

"It's all your fault! If only you were silent and did not interfere with the execution.. Mother.. Mom must be alive. Right after you ran away, my mother was killed by Edward's subordinates, they said it was for the sake of not rebelling again." Tears flowed down the cheeks of the boy. Lily who heard also felt pity and filled.

"That's right! Grandma also died because of you!" One of the women there looked angry.

"My kids are victims too, do you understand? They're just little kids. They happened to be near the execution ground for wanting to play and eventually die." A mother was crying and screaming.

"My son is the same. He lost his hand, and his right eye!" This time it was an old man.

Do not stop there a lot of residents who make the two people as an emotional outlet. They all threw stones at the two people.

But either Lily or Leonardo just fell silent to accept the anger.

Until suddenly a very familiar loud voice resounded. He was quickly next to Leonardo and Lily.

"" Enough there, the citizens!!"" This voice belongs to Allan. He protected the two men.

Instantly the citizens stopped. Allan everyone in this city knew him, he always incited the citizens to rebel, but the citizens refused because they were afraid of Edward's anger.

They all stared in surprise at Allan.

"This operation we are guilty too! No. They are people who even come from outside the city even want to rebel, they realize the rottenness of this city. But why all this time you've just been quiet and staring."

"Many of the slaves came from the city of Oz, not once was this town Warmate.. The slaves are from our side, you scorn them. Even if it's a charade to survive Edward, you're still trash!"

""The two of you who fight for this city are better than those of you who follow EDWARD!""

Hearing the long dialogue from Allan made some residents speechless, but except for one man who was 40 years old.

"Don't joke! We followed Edward not because of a kick.. We OZ people want to do something, but what can we do? We're just adding victims."

""Enough about it!!""

All the people opened their eyes wide.

"Edward is gone now. This was all because of the struggle of these two people.. The ones who lost are not just you.. My friend Jhon is dead too, their friend Monika is the same!"

"Stop whining and let's make this city better! You stupid people!"

All the residents were silent, but there was one grandfather who was old enough to approach Allan. He looks very old.

"Haha, Allan's son. I didn't expect that you'd turned out like this! You were just a bad boy. hahaha."

"Grandfather Tenzo? Thy.. You still alive?"

"Hahaha, of course. After the fire a few years ago I went to a village near here. I lived quietly at first.. But after a few years I heard the news that the town of Warmate had returned with a new name, OZ."

"I tried to go back to the city, but it was so different everything seemed insane. And now half the hope appears. You young men are fighting to drive Edward out. That's really a beautiful thing."

"Allan, you who are now will be able to be a good leader."

Allan just laughed a little assuming it was a joke.

"That's right, the chatty kid who always forces us to rebel! You're the only one who cares about the city the most."

"" Therefore Allan, be our new leader.""

The residents there were seen smiling back and staring at Allan full of hope.

With a embarrassed face Allan accepted that.

"So the leader? All right I'll do it."

The citizens cheered and looked happy as well as Allan. In the midst of happiness, Lily and Leonardo smiled warmly. They held each other's hands and headed back to their destination. The two people feel a new sense of warmth in this city, both of whom are very confident that the city of OZ where they first met and lived as a child will definitely come back for the better.
