Town of The Living Dead Ch. 9
By Ryu Dragon

At the medicine room…

“Okay, we got the serum, let’s go, we haven’t got much time left” said the girl to RD.

“No worries, I can make a shortcut.” said RD grinning. He began to summon the earth power that already accumulates after a while recharging. After making his hand as hard as the steel and combine the elemental power with his own chi, he then hits the ground very hard, creating a hole big enough to pass through. After making sure there is no enemies down the first level, the he said to the girl “Ladies first.” allowing the girl to go first.

“Thank you kind sir, I must admit that is effective” said the girl smiling and went through the hole, followed by RD.

Meanwhile, in the library…

After the meditation, Rogue’s energy has recovered about 80 %, and her wounds are healed. Just when she open her eyes, what she saw was surprising, Ken’s face has turned black and his skin has already wrinkled, the only normal part left is his forehead. She quickly reacts, channeling her chi, combined with wind elemental power to Ken. Her action has saved Ken, because Ryu has already exhausted from channeling his energy to Ken for some time. Getting a chance to rest, Ryu quickly meditates to recover his energy and hopes that RD will come soon with the serum.

Outside the library at the hallway…

RD and the mysterious girl are running as fast as they could, just before they reach the library, they hear a sound like beeping a couple of times. The girl stop and checking something on her belt, “I’ve got something important, you go ahead, I’ll come later” said the girl to RD. “Okay, but be careful you don’t know what other monster that might lurking around here” replied RD. “Don’t worry, I will, go now” said the girl. As RD went through the door, the girl gets the thing that appears to be a phone and start speaking “Yeah, what’s up ? I’m alone now, don’t worry”…

As RD entered the room, he is surprised to see Ken’s condition, he quickly prepare the serum and inject it to Ken, then he quickly sit down and start channeling his energy to Ken to help the serum to react faster. Feeling another energy went in to Ken, Rogue slowly stop channeling her energy and went back to her meditation to recover her energy.

After a while, Ken’s condition is getting normal again, RD still channeling his energy for a few moment to make sure that Ken’s blood has been cleaned from the poison, then he stop and meditate to recover his chi. Just as the three fighters finish their meditation, Ken already woke up and also finishes his own meditation. Looking at his friends, he asks “Who got the serum for me ?”

“Its RD who got it, he went alone to the medicine room to look for it” said Ryu answering Ken’s question.

“Alone ? I know you’re brave, but wandering alone in this mad house ? I must say you’re crazy. But thanks for the serum, I owe you one” said Ken to RD.

“Don’t mention it, beside, if its not for Ryu and Rogue channeling their energy to you while I was looking for the serum, you’ll become one of the mad guy” replied RD grinning. “And you have to thank to another one person, without her help, it might be too late for me to help you” said RD as he gets up and went to the door. Just before he reach the door, the door already open and the mysterious girl came in. “Hi, sorry to keep you waiting” said the girl to RD. “Its okay, at least you’re fine. Ken, Ryu, Rogue, she is the one who helped me to get the serum. Err… she won’t tell her name to me, so I let her introduce herself” said RD introducing the girl to his friends. The girl then sits down on the floor along with the other, facing Ryu and Ken, she bows and said “Greetings great grandfather Ryu and Ken”. The four fighters were very surprised, especially Ryu and Ken. “Err… what did you say ?” asked Ryu and Ken together.

The girl smiles and starts her story “My name is Lynn Kurosawa, I came from the future, from the year of 3000. I’m one of the descendants of the Great Warrior Ryu, and in the future I’m one of the Street Fighter Special Squad. I came here on a mission, it is to help all of you to completely destroy this place. According to the history in the future, four of you had managed to destroy this place, but not complete. And because of that, in the future, Shadowloo used the virus from this lab and perfecting it to create bio-weapon soldiers. The world in the future is almost like h*ll, many kinds of monster created and controlled by Shadowloo lurking everywhere, killing anyone who tried to oppose them. There is one group though, that try to fight them. That group is called Street Fighter, its members mostly are descendants of this street fighter’s generation, and I’m one of them, I’m the descendant of The Great Warrior Ryu and Chun Li.”

Then it was silent in the room, the other four fighters don’t know what to say, they still shocked from Lynn’s story about herself and the future. “Okay, so these are what I get from your story, you are from the future, a descendant of Ryu, and come here to destroy this place. But I’m still curious about something, is it true that Shadowloo still alive ? I mean we, me and Ryu, had kill the leader M.Bison, and the rest of the Shadowloo had been destroyed by Interpol, then how come Shadowloo still alive in the future ?” asked Ken.

“Bison is not dead yet, you two had defeated him once, but he is not killed. And Shadowloo has not been entirely destroyed, there are still some of the small parts left, that’s why they can rise again and used the virus to create bio-weapon soldiers.” replied Lynn. “I understand that all of you might not trust me, okay, to prove that I’m from the future, have any of you seen this kind of gun ?” asked Lynn taking out her gun and shoot plasma energy to the wall.

“Wow, what’s that ?” asked Rogue in amazement. “This gun is called plasma gun, created in the year 2500, this model is newer though, created in the year 2829 with more capabilities such as…” explain Lynn, but cut by Ryu “Okay, don’t explain something that we won’t understand. If you’re from the future, you must know what should we do and where to go now”. “Yep, follow me” replied Lynn.

They quickly stand and go out from the library, following Lynn, to save the future…
