Chapter one

The Mission

Henrietta laid in her bed staring at the ceiling feeling tired wishing that she'd gone to sleep."Hey Henrietta when did you wake up?" Rico asked with a bright smile on her face.

"Good morning Rico I didn't wake up I didn't go to sleep this time."Henrietta said in a response forcing a smile on her own face. Rico let out a sigh looking down at her feet then looking back up at Henrietta.

"Hey Henrietta is something bothering you, you seem a little down for the last few days." Rico said.

"No… there's no need to worry I'm just fine!" Henrietta said in a panic."Um, let's go to the cafeteria for something to eat." Rico smiled and giggled twirling around.

"Ok let's go."Rico said ready to leave in a hurry.

"Wait Rico let's get dressed first."Henrietta giggled.

"Oh yeah right I forgot I was wearing my pajamas."Rico said giggling. Henrietta smiled and jumped off the top bunk grabbing her usual clothes.

"Are you ready to go Rico?"Henrietta asked.

"Yep."Rico answered. Henrietta and Rico walked into the hallway to the cafeteria. Henrietta was distracted staring at her hands thinking before her life in the Social Welfare Agency she had a body of normal muscle and bone but when she woke up in a bed the first person she ever met was Jose her handler she was told she is now a cyborg meaning she has a new body a mechanical body which means she is stronger than the average human and has faster reflexes also. "Hey Henrietta is something wrong?" Rico asked.

"Huh, oh er… no I'm alright I was just thinking."Henrietta said looking down at her feet holding her hands behind her back as she and Rico arrived in the cafeteria. Henrietta grabbed a tray and got her breakfast and sat down at the table with Triela and Claes.

"Hey Rico how are you?"Triela asked.

"I'm very good this morning I woke up in a good mood."Rico said giggling.

"How about you Henrietta?"Triela asked looking Henrietta who wasn't paying any attention to anything around her but her thoughts."Henrietta?"

"Huh?"Henrietta said snapping out of her trans."Is something wrong?"

"Henrietta you don't seem to be yourself did you get any sleep?"Triela asked.

"Henrietta told me she didn't go to sleep last night."Rico said.

"Even for cyborgs like us we need sleep its not healthy."Claes said.

"Is something wrong?"A voice said behind them. Henrietta looked up to see her handler Jose.

"Jose!"Henrietta said happily throwing her arms around him giving him a hug."I thought you were taking a vacation."

"Yeah I decided not to this month."Jose said then looking down at her tray."Did you just get your food, you hardly touched it."

"Um, no I guess I wasn't thinking of eating it."Henrietta said letting go of Jose looking down at her feet."I guess I'm not hungry today."

"Henrietta has been like this for the last few days."Rico pointed out to Jose.

"Hmm, I see any ways the other reason I didn't go on vacation is because we're going on a mission with Rico Triela and Angelica."Jose said.

"Really!"Triela and Rico said at the same time.

"Yes we are to capture and get information from Jonah Nyström he's a 25 year old school librarian."Jose informed." If you're wondering why this man he's part of an organization called: The Blade Corsairs Organization."

"Blade Corsairs Organization?" Triela asked.

"Yes you know already corsairs were privateers, authorized to conduct raids on shipping of a nation at war with France, on behalf of the French Crown long ago."Jose said.

"Which means they raid shipping's for themselves?"Triela asked.

"Close they use to associate with Christiano before he went missing."Jose added."They know about section 2's mission to capture Christiano they blame us for his absence for his organization."

"So that means they want to take us out before we take them out."Triela said.

"Correct."Jose said.

"Then when is the mission?"Henrietta asked.

"We got three days to get ready does everyone understand?"Jose asked.

"Yes."Henrietta said Rico and Triela nodded.
