"Ok move the velocity level up to 10," a man's voice says over an intercom. The sound echoed through a large white room. A boy with shaggy pink hair and horns on his head was chained to the wall, naked. He hangs his head and stares at the ground. All that he wore was a black neck choker. "Level changed Sir," a female's voice says. "Fire," the man replied. A fist sized metal ball stops dead in front of the boys face then drops to the ground. "Up another level and fire," the man says again. The round goes off and hits the boy in the head. Blood splatters on the wall. A man in a white coat runs over to him and puts a stethoscope up to the boy's chest. Just then the man's limbs and head are ripped off. The boy starts to laugh then stops suddenly as he looks up to the window and sees a woman holding a thing he knew too well. The boy started to convulse and shake. "You miss behave like this and this is what you get," the woman said. She switched the intercom off and held down the trigger to the boys shock collar. "Chief Kurama, if he wasn't so important he'd already be dead," the woman said to a man with glasses standing in the back of the room. "Well he is the only male Diclonius ever born Shirakawa," The man replied.
Five years later
"Papa who is that?" Nana asked, as she looked over two her left. The boy was chained to the wall again. He still had the same haircut, but his body filled out more. "That is Calvin. He is a Diclonius just like you," Kurama replied. "I've always been able to sense him I just never new what he looked like," Nana replied. "He isn't a nice Diclonius Nana so don't try to make contact with him ok?" Kurama asked Nana. "I won't Papa, he has a strong hatred for this place, Papa. I can sense that about him," Nana replied. "Well I want you to do your best Nana and if it hurts you let me know ok?" Kurama stated. "I will Papa," Nana replied with a big grin on her face. "Start number 4 on level 15 and number 7 on level 9," a voice rang over the intercom. Suddenly fist sized metal balls shot at both Diclonius. Both dropped right before they hit their heads. "Ok move number 7 up to 11 and move 4 up to 16," the voice yelled. Nana got a worried look on her face. 'I can't block 11, I know I can't,' she thought. Kurama looked away. "Fire," said the man over the intercom. Nana gritted her teeth and braced for impact. Both balls stopped in front of the Diclonius' faces. Nana gasped and looked over at Calvin. She could sense that he stopped hers with his vectors. She smiled a bit and Calvin continued to block all the other ones that came at her.
"That was amazing Nana. You've gotten so much better at controlling your vectors," Kurama said as he unchained her and handed her a towel. Nana looked over at Calvin and saw where he was unable to block them as his levels went higher. He had blood running all over his body. "I didn't block them Papa," Nana said as she looked over and saw Calvin get sprayed with a hose. Kurama looked at her with a puzzled face, "What are you saying Nana?" "Calvin blocked them Papa," Nana replied. Kurama turned just in time to see the man with the hose's head fly off. "Everybody get back his vectors have increased in length," Kurama yelled. "Don't worry Papa they aren't as long as mine, I tested," Nana replied. "Alright everyone stay at least 5 meters away from number 4," Kurama yelled as Shirakawa began to shock Calvin again.
Fifteen Years Ago
"Kurama you're not going to believe this," Kakuzawa said. Kakuzawa held up the Diclonius baby. "It's a boy," Kakuzawa said again. "I'm calling the director," Kurama replied. "Director Kakuzawa please, Yes, Sir it's a boy, understood," Kurama hung up the phone. "So what did my father say?" Kakuzawa asked. "We are bringing the boy back with us. Kill the parents," Kurama said as he carried the baby out of the room. Kakuzawa rolled his eyes, "I'll do it then." Kurama hung his head and the baby started to cry as gunshots came from the other room.
Fifteen Years Later
"Calvin please tell me why you did it. Why did you block those shots for Nana?" Chief Kurama asked Calvin. The Chief stood exactly 5 meters away from Calvin. Calvin was strapped to a table with a helmet over his head. "She needed my help. Nana couldn't have blocked those. These ridiculous tests you put us through are a waste of time. How can you let your own daughter go through all of that? Just to let you know she can't go above level 11, so just prepare for blood next time." Calvin replied calmly. "You won't be testing with Nana anymore Calvin, in fact you won't be having anymore contact with other Diclonius ever," Dr. Takashi butted in. Kurama sat back in his chair. Takashi headed for the door, and then turned. "Take number 4 to the lab, we have special testing for him," he said just before a ballpoint pen shot through his head.
Three weeks later
"I wonder why artificial insemination doesn't work on the subjects?" Shirakawa asked. "I don't know," Chief Kurama replied. "Well I do have a question," Shirakawa stated. "Go ahead," Kurama replied. "How do you get a hold of number 4's semen?" She asked. "Well he won't cooperate and give it to us willingly. We have a machine that attaches itself to Calvin. This machine induces an erection and an ejaculation. We then take his semen and try to induce a pregnancy. All 5 subjects tested negative." Kurama answered. Shirakawa nodded. "Is this process painful to number 4?" She asked. "It's not supposed to be, but Calvin makes it painful by struggling. I know it seems wrong but he is the only male Diclonius ever born. We have to try everything," Kurama paused for a minute. He picks up his phone and dials, "Director Kakuzawa, I have an idea. Try to inseminate a female Diclonius with Calvin's semen. Yes Sir, Good-Bye." "You think that will work?" Shirakawa asked. "We will have to see. We'll have to see," Kurama answered as he pushed up his glasses and left the room.
Two Months Later
"It worked. Number 26 is pregnant. Everything seems to be fine. She is one month along. We told her that if the baby dies from causes other than natural, that we would detonate the bombs inside her," Kurama said. "Does number 4 know?" Shirakawa asked. "No one has told him but I'm sure he senses her and the baby," Kurama replied. Shirakawa took off her glasses and cleaned them. "Wait I thought Diclonius lacked the organs to reproduce?" Shirakawa asked. "That's why we used number 26. She was the only Diclonius born with organs like a human female has," Kurama paused, "You know I wonder if this is right. Forcing a pregnancy on a Diclonius then threatening her life if she tries to kill it," Kurama sighed then looked at a picture of Nana on his desk. "Well they are just monsters, I mean it's been proven that Diclonius only attack humans and no other species," Shirakawa stated.
"So I'm a father," Calvin said to himself. Calvin lay chained to his bed wrapped in a sheet. His eyes glared at the ceiling. "It's number 26, I knew Kurama wouldn't try to use Nana. He's too soft. I must meet with 26 and ask her what she plans to do," He said again. 'It's Lucy's feeding time. I wonder how many guards she will take out today,' Calvin thought. "There we go," he said. Suddenly an alarm goes off and Kurama can be heard over the intercom. "Close the partition don't let her escape," Kurama yells. "Thanks Lucy," Calvin says as the chains around him break off. He unwraps himself in the sheets and runs to the door. Guards run by the window then Calvin peeks out. He uses his vectors to break the glass and open the door from the outside. "I can't be seen or this will never work," he says as he runs down the hall busting out every camera before he runs in front of them. He stops at a partition then pries the door open. "Hello?" he says. "Why are you here and not trying to escape?" a female voice asks. "You know the baby growing in your stomach is from me right?" Calvin asks. "Know I didn't. Well I hope you're not here to kill it because if it dies I die. I have a bomb in each limb and in my chest. They told me if the baby dies from unnatural causes that they would kill me," number 26 replied. Calvin looked down and crept into her room then closed the door behind him. "Do you have a name?" he asked her. Number 26 stepped out of the shadows. She had shoulder length pink hair big innocent pink eyes. "It's Chidori," she replied. "Well Chidori do you want to have this baby?" he asked her. "I think the only reason they keep me around is to have the baby. If it dies there will be no use for me," Chidori replied. "Well then I will give you this," Calvin's vectors came from behind him and went into Chidori. "What are you doing?" she asked frightened. Calvin's vectors withdrew and he smiled, "The bombs inside you are now deactivated." "What that's impossible get a sharp shooter out there now!" Kurama yelled over the intercom. Calvin turned, "Survive and I'll help you escape one day, and then this baby will be given a proper life." Chidori stopped him with her vectors. She ran over to him and hugged him. "Thank you," she said as tears fell from her face. Calvin blushed then hugged back. "We will escape one day, I promise," Calvin said as he headed out the partition and ran back to his room.
One month later
'Well they stopped testing everyone; Nana left, then came back, and is gone again. They are so bent on getting Lucy back that they stopped concentrating on everyone else,' Calvin thought to himself. 'Chidori seems to be ok. I'd like to see her again,' He thought as he sat up in his bed, 'Even though I hate treating these people good, it keeps me out of trouble and I don't have to sleep tied down.' Just then his eyes widened. 'I can't believe it. They are going to use number 35. She's a demon,' he thought. 'Nana won't stand a chance and well I don't know about Lucy. This may be the diversion I need,' he finished.
Later that night
Calvin runs down the hall. He stops at Chidori's door and opens it. "Come, we have to go. Everyone is in a panic. Number 35 is dead along with Kurama and Shirakawa. I can't sense Lucy anymore. All of the humans are scattering. Now is the time," Calvin said as he caught his breath. Chidori smiled and ran out the door and hugged him. "I knew you would always…" Chidori was cut off as her brains splattered on the wall behind her. Blood covered Calvin's face as he turned to see Director Kakuzawa holding a gun with armor piercing rounds. "There is no need to get upset, number 4. I'm doing what needs to be done," he said. Calvin noticed the horns on his head. "You'll never be a Diclonius you son of a bitch," Calvin said as he ran at him. Kakuzawa held up a trigger and pulled it. Calvin stopped and fell to the ground. His body shook and convulsed. "As long as you remain in pain you can't use your vectors," Kakuzawa said as he laughed and pointed the gun at Calvin. Calvin held on to the collar then grinned. "You ever stop to think that we Diclonius made you humans think that so it would make you let your guard down?" Calvin said as the Director's hands were cut off. Calvin ripped of the collar and cut off the Director's feet as he started to run. "Chidori was an innocent girl. There was no need for her to die!" Calvin yelled as he pulled off the Director's horns. "She, She had too. We couldn't…" the Director was cut off by Calvin pulling out his tongue. Calvin continued to destroy the Directors body then he finally just cut of his head. Calvin then picked up Chidori's body and carried her to the reactor room. As he passed by random guards, they just split in half or were decapitated. He set Chidori next to a reactor then messed with the computer. "I have failed you Chidori," he said. 'She had a chance to be happy and I didn't hold true to my promise,' he thought. He kissed Chidori on the forehead then whispered, "I'm sorry." An alarm went off and everyone started to run out of the compound. Calvin ran outside and jumped onto a boat that was passing by the cliff. He killed every human on board just as the compound exploded. The boat was headed for the shore and Calvin passed out on the boat.
Calvin felt the sun on his face and could hear a dog barking. Suddenly the dog started to lick his face. "Wanta come back," a girl yelled. "Mayu where did you go?" another girl called out. Calvin opened his eyes and looked at the dog. The girl gasped and grabbed Wanta. "Nana hurry up I'm over here," the girl said. Nana ran up to Mayu and gasped. A name whispered on her voice, "Calvin." She ran over to Calvin and held his head. "Calvin are you ok? Wake up!" Nana yelled. "Who is that Nana?" Mayu asked. "He's a Diclonius like me," Nana replied. Calvin opened his eyes, "Nana is that you?"
"Yes it's me Calvin are you ok?" Nana replied. "I'll go get Kohta," Mayu said as she took off down the beach. "Where am I?" Calvin asked. "You're on the beach, how did you escape?" Nana said. Calvin had all these flash backs of what happened. He thought of Chidori and the Director and the compound. A tear formed on his cheek and he looked up at Nana. "I will live on," he answered. Just then Kohta and Mayu come running up to Nana and Calvin. Kohta stopped. "Another Diclonius?" he asked. Calvin sat up. "Oh he is a he," Kohta said. "His name is Calvin. He and I come from the same place," Nana replied. Calvin stood and took the pants of dead soldier lying on the beach. "These will do for now," he said. "Are you hungry Calvin?" Nana asked. Calvin's stomach growled. "A little," he responded. "Kohta is it ok if Calvin can come eat dinner with us?" Nana asked. "No Nana I can't do that," Calvin stated. "It's ok, um Calvin is it? I don't mind. My cousin Yuka will be home sometime soon with dinner so lets go," Kohta said as he motioned towards their house. "Yay!" Nana yelled. Calvin huffed but followed them to their home.
'These people sure are friendly. They are letting me take a bath and everything,' Calvin thought to himself as he sat in the bath. He laid his head back and stared at the ceiling. "Calvin, you ok in there?" Nana asked from behind the door. "Yeah I'm fine, would you come in here and talk to me?" Calvin asked as he got out of the bath and wrapped a towel around himself. Nana peeked in blushing. "You are dressed right?" she asked. Calvin laughed. "Yes I have a towel," Nana wiped her brow and walked in. "Nana what do you get out of living in this house?" Calvin asked. Nana paused for a minute then looked down. "I have friends here. I get to live of my own free will. Not having to answer to anyone. I feel safe here with Kohta and Yuka," Nana said with a grin on her face. "This Yuka is she a nice person?" Calvin asked. "Why yes she is," Nana replied. "Calvin I asked Kohta if you could stay here a while, at least until you felt comfortable leaving and well I never got to thank you for that time when you…" Nana said before Calvin cut her off. "Don't worry about it Nana," Calvin said while blushing. Suddenly Wanta started to bark. "We're home," Yuka yelled from the door. Calvin's eyes widened. "Who is that?" he said. "That was Yuka," Nana replied. "No I mean the other g…" he trailed off, his surprise turned to a smile. 'I don't believe it,' he thought. "Well she survived after all," Calvin said aloud.
