"Shut down the inner hulls of this thing, make sure anything trying to come in here can't. Remember that the X-A95 should be on stand by at all times"

I watched them leave, turn away and probably gossip about all the orders I was giving them. They simply didn't realize, they didn't understand the danger that they were in, and how precious a life could be.

"KISARAGI! We're going to have to sacrifice you"

She smiled, despite being in the cold grip of a lifeless, empatheticless person. Proving her worth to me was all she wanted to accomplish.

"So I'll be helping you?"

It had been the last time, I had seen her eyes sparkle. Hold such a clumsy brilliance towards me. After she stole her from me; I looked up at the mummified woman, a hump where her once flat and toned stomach was. Her hair was pooled out, her face covered by a new more highly advanced version of the casing we had around her previous.

"Lucy… seems you've gotten you're self pregnant"

Nothing. She said nothing to me, but then again I suppose she wouldn't. The last time I had seen her, she had killed Nana… or so we thought. Nana was being re-sculptured in a lab on the ship. Then…. A voice came from the what seemed like hollow bandages.

"Yes, and she will kill… every single one of you"

I could feel my face harden even though I didn't intend it to. That showed weakness among the Diclonius. I pushed the glasses up further on my nose, and chuckled.

"But Lucy…. You said you could accomplish more Diclonius births than human birth's in five years… it doesn't seem to have been done"

The loud noise came then; her vector's stomping on the ground, and the bars around her shaking. They gave the illusion of being in-stable, but in fact they weren't. Built of titanium- alloy and the strongest metal made by man.

"She will kill you"

I sigh, and then lick my lips, realizing the dry, chapped mess they had become. I walked closer, tempting her. Instead of steal bars, we now had a cage, that could only be seen through a five inch screen of Lucy's face.

"I suppose I should give you the honor of naming this… her… that you call it"

The stomping ceased almost immediately after I said what I had said. I smirked, knowing that the human father of this diclonius would be here soon and I wanted to give the naming rights to Lucy, a parting gift before she was executed.

"Hakai"

I chuckle almost involuntarily and buck forward, her vectors banging against the bars as I did so. She was desperately trying to reach me. She wanted to crush me, turn me into a human pretzel and marvel in the sight of my wrangled body.

"Destruction? Alright… I suppose it is you're child. Good night Lucy"

She chuckled herself, and I paused in my side step to leave the anti-chamber. What she said sounded so menacing, that it nearly made my heart stop in its place. I knew in that second, execution must proceed almost immediately.

"See you in the morning… Kurama"
