Ito Ai: A New Dawn

Chapter 9: The Day The World Ended Part Two

Shizune gave Ai a strange look and asked: "Why do I need to wait forty eight hours?"

"You will know when the time comes!" Ai, replied as she grinned, showing her two front teeth as she did.

Shizune shook Ai off and took off her shoes. "Why do you have to be so mysterious?"

Ai laughed, turned around, and walked away only leaving a smart ass remark. "Because if I am not mysterious people will not like me!"

Shizune stood stunned looking at her daughters retreating back before letting out a laugh and yelling out. "You little brat! Remember we are having dinner with Mai and her parents tomorrow!"

The next day came quickly and dinner was being served. It was six in the evening and Ai let out a sigh, the past six months had been a paradise for her. She had loved every minute of the easy life. But now in just a mere seven hours, all hell was going to break loose. Ai had spiked every bottle of alcohol in the house with sleeping powder during the day so that no matter what they drank they would get it into their system. She controlled the quantities so that it would not cause them an overdose but would be enough to put them to sleep long enough to transport them downstairs.

"Is everything ready?" Mai leaned over and asked keeping her voice to a whisper so only Ai could hear her.

"Mhm. I set up everything so that they will be knocked out. But getting them down the ladder might be a pain. I guess I will be forced to toss them down. I already prepared some padding to soften their falls." Ai replied nonchalantly causing Mai to almost laugh out loud and spray her drink all over the place.

"Wouldn't they get hurt?" Mai asked worriedly. She did not want to be beaten to death by her parents right after the world ended!

"Hmm? It's fine if they do, that means they will not venture out for the first month. I would prefer it if they did not go anywhere. That is why I went through the trouble of making a bathroom with a portapotty off the main room. No reason to leave, even to dump waste." Ai did indeed add a small room off the main structure of her bunker that was just for a portapotty and a small door to close it off from the main bunker area.

On top of that, she had drilled holes for vents to let air in and out of the bunker so they would not suffocate. One was for the bathroom while the other three were for air intake and exhaust. Although the small little fans she installed were rigged to work from a foot bicycle pump or compressor. They could each take turns a few times a day pumping the air in and out of the bunker once the power finally went out. Although it would be tedious it was going to be a daily task for everyone. But getting a portapotty down the entrance to the bunker was the biggest obstacle that Mai and Ai had. But with much work and a little bit of muscle power they were able to force it down without spilling the contents of the tank.

As dinner went on, Ai noticed that both her's and Mai's parents were swaying back and forth. She could tell the combination of alcohol and sleeping medication was beginning to take effect. Time ticked on and 9 P.M. finally hit and both of their parents were sound asleep at the dining room table. "Alright Mai, let's tie them up. I have no idea how long they will be out. So it would best to do this quickly."

Mai quickly ran to the couch where the bondage gear had been stored and took out a pair of handcuffs and cuffed both her parents' legs and feet. Ai went and did the same before tying a rope around their body binding their arms to their sides. "Ai should we gag them still? I mean they won't be able to move like this right?"

"If they wake up and start yelling at us, we will gag them then." Ai explained. She also thought a gag was a bit excessive.

The two girls started with Mai's dad since he was the biggest and carried him down to the basement. "Mia I hate to say it but your dad is really fat! It's a good thing you take after your mom."

"You know I was thinking the same exact thing! " Mai said with a laugh. She had to admit her dad was pretty big.

"Alright, I will climb down first. You slide him down the ladder the best you can and I will try to catch him." Ai couldn't think of a better way to get them down without literally dropping them down as she had suggested before.

After about thirty minutes of work, Ai and Mai were able to get all four parents down stairs. She then closed the latch on the door she built and locked it tightly. "We will need to take turns using the foot pump to keep fresh air in here once the power runs out. I will start the egg timer and in the next hour we should get ready to begin circulating the air."

"Ai I thought you said your house collapsed. Are you sure the vents will be okay?" Mai asked.

"Mhm. I have them encased and protected so even if something falls on top they will be fine. Since the house is made of wood, we won't need to worry about the vents being completely blocked. Basically, the whole small storeroom is safe. I released the top door guard to keep anything from blocking the main entrance. or it will allow me to get the door open enough to push whatever is in the way out of the way. " Ai explained.

Midnight hit and their parents began to wake up. Their heads were groggy from the sleeping pills but soon felt wide awake when they found themselves tied up and in a strange place. "Ah, you're awake."

Shizune turned her head to see her daughter walking over with four bottles of water. "Ai what the hell is going on? Why did you kidnap us?"

"Kidnap? Mom we are still in our house. This place here is the thing Mai and I have been working on for the past six months. I am sorry but I can't untie you for another hour. Remember how I said that everything will be explained within forty eight hours?" Ai looked at her mother but the look she gave was not a joking one at all. It was the same look Shizune received before when she agreed to let Ai skip school for the rest of the year.

"Ai, cut this shit out right now and untie us!" Seiji yelled out in anger. If he knew this was going to happen he would have forced the damn girl to go to school.

"Dad I can't do that. You will sit tight and watch the news for now. You will see shortly why I did all this and then I will explain to you about what is to come. Job? School? These things will mean nothing in the years ahead. The only thing you should be worrying about is your own survival from now on." Ai's words confused everyone. They did not know what she meant by survival.

"Ai what the hell are you talking about!? Mai get over here and untie me!" Nakano Yasuhide, Mai's father yelled out.

"Dad I can not help you. Everything we are doing is for your own good, soon everything will be completely understood!" Mai looked at her angered father and knew she was going to get a spanking once he was free. She could already feel her butt cheeks hurting.

"Mai, Ai! Why are you doing this? Explain it to us so that we can understand. What do you mean by survival?" Nakano Kazumi was scared she was scared by the words Ai had just said. She couldn't help but feel something was truly going to happen.

"It's happening Mai, turn up the news..." As soon as Ai said this the clock hit one in the morning and the ground beneath them began to shake violently. It shook so badly as if it was an earthquake.

"What!? What is going on!?" Shizune yelled out in surprise.

"Ahhh! we are going to die!" Kasumi yelled out.

"Shut up!" Ai yelled as she turned up the news. "Listen.."

"Breaking News! A 9.0 earthquake as shook all of Japan. Wait what!?"

*Boom!*

The news reporter was interrupted by a loud sound that rocked the studio shaking its cameras. A notification came through her headset causing her eyes to open wide and she quickly said: "For all those who are watching find a safe place underground, basement, parking garage, anyplace underground. All the nuclear powers of the world have just launched their nuclear weapons onto themselves!"

All eyes of Mai's and Ai's parents turned to them, two of them with a questioning look that asked "huh?". "I am guessing you want to know why we knew this was going to happen?"

"Ai is this what you meant when everything would be explained?" Shizune finally understood what was going on.

"Mhm. This is what I meant." Ai said as she walked over and untied and unhandcuffed her mom and Mai's mom but did not untie her father or Mai's father. "Don't untie them for now until they promise not to spank us."

Shizune let out a laugh which caused the overly worried Kasumi to also laugh. Even in a situation where things were not certain, Ai's nonchalant demeanor kept everyone calm in this time of crisis.

"You damn brat untie me right now or I really will put you over my knee!"

Ai laughed and motioned for Mai to untie and unhandcuffed her father as well. "I know you four have lots of questions, it will take some time to explain. But first, before things get too bad I want to bring down all the food in the house. Dad, mom can you help me? Our house will only last for another two hours before the biggest earthquake Japan has ever seen hits."

"Is it really going to be that bad?" Seiji suddenly asked. He had no reason to not believe his daughter's words anymore and in a way deep down he was happy she did what she did.

"Yes, the shock we just experienced was just the first of many. The big one will come soon, for now, we need to pack all the food we can that has not been destroyed in the first earthquake. The first feeling of a tremor you have, make sure you drop everything in your hands and run to the bunker. If I say run for it, run for it. Do not worry about anything other than food, it will be useless in the days to come." Ai warned as she climbed up the ladder and pushed hard on the door. It was already blocked up by a few pieces of wood. But with a little effort, she was able to push it open.

"Ai, I thought you said the house would last another two hours it is almost collapsed now!" Seiji frowned. This was the house he bought with his hard-earned money after many years of saving.

"Dad, I said it would be fully collapsed in two hours, not that it was already close to it. Luckily the area that covered the entrance to the bunker is already clear of any extra things falling on top of it. I actually didn't want to come topside for over a month but I can not let what precious food might be useful later on go to waste." Ai said as she pushed hard on the door leading from the basement to the kitchen. The whole area was a mess and a large crack in the ceiling could be seen. Ai knew this house was not going to last much longer. "I didn't realize it was this bad. Grab what you can and quickly get back downstairs." The family of three quickly grabbed what they could in their hands and ran back into the basement tossing the canned goods and boxes of noodles down the bunker entrance before climbing down themselves. Mai and her parents helped grab what was tossed down and brought it to the main room.

Ai was the last to go down as she made sure the bunker door was sealed tight before climbing down. As she entered the main room all eyes were on her. "Alright, before I explain everything, let me go over the rules we will need to follow from this day forth."
