Chapter 66 - Final Boss Fight

The next day Kaiser was thrown out of bed around 4 in the morning in order to not miss the excursion. It would take a long time until they would return late at night so he ate a lot and his mother packed him as much food as possible in preparation. Due to his abilities Kaiser wouldn't need all of it but still had to pretend to be hungry in order to satisfy the ever-present watchful eye of his mother.

Close to five everyone had arrived before the large school building, standing in big groups in the schoolyard. Kaiser, as one of the silent and introverted people stood inside the group where most of the other calm and quit kids stood to avoid the rest, keeping his thoughts to himself and only answering questions when he was directly being asked by people from different groups that walked around to greet their classmates and friends. Closing his eyes for a few minutes he began to inspect his private aircraft once more from all angles, constantly comparing it's broken and partially rusted shape to the model and blueprints inside his memories. Although he already knew everything he would need to fix and even how to fix it, everything was only theoretical knowledge and he was still unsure if he would be able to fix it by himself with his limited skills.

After what seemed like a few seconds to him he was disturbed by someone violently shaking his shoulder. Annoyed he opened his eyes a small bit and glanced at the cause of his interruption. Right next to him stood a child which was perhaps three years older than him. Before he even got a chance to ask for the reason why that child had ripped him from his own thoughts the child spoke: "Give me your lunch. Now!"

Coldly looking towards the older child Kaiser remained silent. For a few awkward seconds a strange moment of silence followed. The children in the other groups had somehow managed to stop their loud mouths from spilling more shouting and screaming that assaulted everything in the nearby vicinity and curiously observed the situation in front of them while forming a large more or less round circle around the both of them. "Why should I?", Kaiser replied. "It is mine and with that it is up to me to chose with whom I want to share my meals, don't you think so?"

The older child seemed surprised at the calm and collected response. Perhaps he had expected Kaiser to break down in tears and give him whatever he wished for?

"That wasn't a question, kid!" the older child replied with a dark expression on his face while cracking his knuckles. "Either you hand me your lunch or I'll take it from you on my own. There is no option where I'll simply walk away."

Sighing Kaiser walked towards the kid before pulling out a wooden box. Assuming that Kaiser was going to surrender his lunch to him he leaned forwards to grab it should Kaiser intend to put it away last minute. However Kaiser did neither of both things but instead kicked the older child in the balls before slamming the wooden box on the older child's head. Surprised and shocked the older child fell to the ground, barely managing to protect himself from falling face first onto the hard stone pavement by landing in a strange push up stance.

Slowly Kaiser walked over to the downed child and pressed his left foot down between it's shoulder blades. Exerting pressure by leaning forwards he forced the child lie on the ground completely before calmly stating: "You are truly in luck. There are many who have died for less. In this moment I could kill you in so many ways, some more violent and painful than others. But as I don't wish for any trouble to befall my family I will let you go today. I would advise you to correct your behavior or else … my hand might slip. Is that understood?"

Although the older boy couldn't see Kaiser's face he somehow knew that the small child was being serious. Later he would laugh and joke about it but at this moment he was simply afraid. He gulped and replied quietly: "Understood. I won't bother you again."

Kaiser sneered and raised his voice. "What was that? Say it again. Louder this time. I could barely hear your voice over the sound of you wetting your pants!"

This time the boy shouted: "Please let me go! I won't bother you again! I promise!"

Kaiser simply lifted his leg from the downed boy and silently walked towards the school building to sit on one of the benches that were located close to the entrances. The crowd parted before him, letting him through without any problems. As he approached one of the benches he saw two older teachers sitting on one of them, watching the events unfold. Although they said nothing he could still somehow sense their judgmental stares as he sat down some distance away.

A few minutes later six large vehicles parked along the road next to the school. The rest of the teachers exited from them and began walking towards the school. Shortly after everyone lined up according to their respective classes and began to march towards one of the buses each. From afar they had already looked extremely large but from close up they were even more enormous. It seemed to be hovering slightly above the ground whenever it moved but now it rested on the street. Contrary to what one would expect from such large machines they were almost completely silent and moved quite fast.

Kaiser was truly fascinated by them. As far as he knew these large vehicles were used by the military for mass transportation in case the trains couldn't reach a certain spot in any way. He couldn't wait to ask one of the teachers about them. Before he got the chance to even ask the question once everyone had been seated it was answered by the principal who talked to everyone over the loudspeakers. Apparently the trips where happening all over the district and to give every school the opportunity to see most of their home district the government had allowed the schools to use their special buses.

A smart move in Kaisers eyes as it served as a good distraction for the explosions and chaos that happened the day before as well as being useful for PR reasons to worsen the relations between the districts by showing it on television.

About two minutes after the principal had ended his announcement the buses began to move and soon they arrived at a large gate guarded by peacekeepers. They had reached the outer perimeter of Sector B2.
