Day 63: Magus Park (morning)
The buses’ trundling halt next to the park meant the “field trip” was officially in full swing.
Aidou couldn’t imagine there was much excitement to be had in the prospect. Assuming there wasn’t another zombie ambush or something similar, being able to roam Doyleton merely meant they had been transferred to a bigger cage until sundown. A bigger cage with nowhere to go.
The one new addition was the credit card. Aidou would’ve thought Landel would have wanted to get rid of the purchasing system, but apparently not. It was probably more enjoyable for him to watch and see what they would try to buy to better their stay, especially now, with his latest threat breathing down their necks. Aidou was tempted just to throw it away along with his sack of food, but pragmatism won out. In the end, he kept it in the pocket of his jacket. If an idea struck him, he would have it for later.
Since he had been in the aisle seat, Aigis had been required to file out behind him; once they were free and clear of the smelly contraptions he turned around to address her. “You have an idea of where you’re going, I presume? I expect you’ll want to look for your friends.”

She looked up with clarity shining in her eyes. Gratefulness. "Yes. I appreciate your assistance in that matter."

And tears… tears were for loss, weren’t they? Wasn’t this a loss, all these people potentially turning into something worse than even the most mindless ex-human?
Aidou found he couldn’t meet her look head on. Becoming an executioner and wielding such cold, hard mercy might suit a vampire who was free of certain moral trappings, but it was still insufficient. Not hardly worth thanking him for. “You shouldn’t be relying on death as a way out, you know,” he said after a moment. “At least be less happy about it.” After all, didn’t she want to live?
