Chapter 10 - Last Survivor

Walking Through Headquarters

Heading towards Galactic Federation's science Department 

They walked slowly through the Galactic Federation's long hallways. Most leaders used hover-cars inside, but Kaizu preferred walking. 

"Pain reminds me I'm alive."

The headquarters wasn't as shiny as before. Cracked walls had cheap fixes. Soldiers saluted Kaizu.

Skye walked beside him. "Remember when we got lost here during training?" 

Kaizu almost smiled. "You cried." 

"I was sixteen!" 

"And I carried you past six guard posts." 

Then 

After a While they reached the Science Department 

The science lab doors opened, revealing a cavernous space bathed in eerie blue light. Towering machines hum with quiet power, their screens flashing warnings in different languages. In the center, DR. RUCE sits in the chair —his back to the entrance, fingers dancing across holographic displays showing the boy's flickering vital signs.* 

Kaizu stepping into the cold light 

"You called, Doctor." 

 Ruce's chair slowly rotates, revealing sunken eyes magnified by thick glasses. His lab coat is stained with coffee and something darker. The ghostly light catches the metallic implants along his temple—

Ruce spoke with a voice like grinding gears

"Ah. Captain Kaizu. How... unfortunate you're awake for this." 

 

Skye tenses beside Kaizu. The air smells like sterilized death.

Ruce taps a sequence into his wrist console. The floor TREMORS as hidden mechanisms activate.

Ruce

"Come. The truth waits below

Dr. Ruce's lab smelled like medicine and machines. 

Ruce pressed buttons. The floor opened! A hidden elevator took them down. 

The hexagonal platform drops like a stone, lights flickering as they plunge into the Federation's forbidden depths. Kaizu's reflection in the glass shows the wounds beneath his uniform.

Skye with a quiet, to Kaizu

"Brace yourself sorry I haven't said to you because I felt you won't handle these much stress" 

Kaizu is too confused 

---

Steam erupts as the doors open. Before them—

And yes

A boy.. 

Frost-encased, glowing faintly blue. Inside floats the BOY, 

About 17 years old. Breathing weakly. A bad burn shaped like a spiral on his chest—the mark of Power Source radiation. 

his bare chest marred by a SPIRAL-SHAPED BURN that pulses like a second heartbeat. IV lines snake into his arms like silver veins.

We follow Kaizu's boots as he steps closer. His breath fogs in the sudden cold. The boy's face twitches—trapped in nightmares.

Ruce says 

"Found him floating in the middle space near the destruction spot , he radiation signature... matches the Power Source."

Cold air hit them when doors opened. The room was white with blinking machines. 

Ruce adjusted his glasses. "We found him. Only Earth survivor." 

"The Last Earth's Survivor"

Kaizu's shocked till is veins....as he sees the last survivor...how could he be able to survive alone, almost all dead..8 billions dead and a bare human... 

A weakest Race "Human" how could he alone survive 

Impossible ...

As the word "Butcher" and this incident haunted kaizu 

Who is butcher ? 

How did this boy survived 

With confused look

He looked at her—really looked. Saw the scar on her forehead from their first training accident. The way she still stood crooked from an old injury. 

Twenty years of fighting together. 

"What aren't you telling me?" Kaizu asked

Skye gave him a tired smile. 

"Guess we're will figure it out soon."
