Prologue

The day was turning to dusk and the air was cold, crisp, and awakening. The moon merely became the centering beam of light in a dilapidated warehouse, dimly lighting the area and barely noticing two human figures standing side to side. The atmosphere felt heavy and full of suspense as if a duel was about to commence.

"You...Why are you protecting him?," a man's voice resonated in the innate walls. He haughtily stood close to the entrance with his arm blocking the way.

"He is not an enemy. Don't put him in that horrid place," In another side was a woman's voice, husky and almost akin to a cry. She was seemingly shielding someone from behind - a young boy - lying on the ground, unconscious.

"He is infected. I have no choice. This is the vice chairman's orders."

"He can change, Togami-san. I know-" she was quickly interrupted.

"You know what? Eradicating despair? This dreadful disease isn't something that only swooning words can alleviate, Asano. He must be rehabilitated."

His words were rough and unshaken from doubt. Asano didn't know what to say next. Indeed, she wasn't at all convinced, but she clearly knew the drastic consequences when regulations from authorities are disobeyed. With a dismayed face, she surrendered and took a step aside.

"Bring him and the others to the SG Institute." He immediately instructed his men and they quickly took action. The man now named Togami steadily neared Asano as he placed a hand on her shoulder for comfort and assurance. "Do not worry. He will return unscathed. We just have to be patient, Asano."

The young woman didn't turn to face him; she simply shook her head in approval and walked away. Although his frigid attitude prevented him from further consolation to Asano, Togami couldn't help but feel troubled for the young boy and the remaining people tainted with such atrocity.

"G.A. Project," he whispered to himself. He walked outside the large establishment and looked farther towards a tall towering superstructure that he was all too familiar with after his own tragedy with the mastermind. "What are the higher-ups intending to do?"

Aaaaand that's it! I'm done with this. Just kidding. I had some free time today and decided to make a short prologue on the story. I hope that this will bring up your hopes a little now that my student roster is starting to fill in with your submissions. Wishing that I get to have more submissions by the end of the month so that I can plan my storyline and post chapters before the year ends.

I will be posting the admission record in my bio since I forgot that it's difficult to copy-and-paste the form from the chapter, so I apologize for those who had to manually type them (Gomenasai TT_TT). Also, I edited the guidelines and became not-so-strict with the OC talents, but I'll very much appreciate it if your OC will have a unique talent different from the canon talents so as to bring some 'fresh meat' to the story, if you know what I mean.

Thank you for all of your support especially to Jurabi on giving me a headstart motivation. 'Til next time, my lovely patients! :9
