A Shade of Green and Purple

Chapter 1: A Lasting Memory

-Leanbox; Basillicom- A young boy about 5 years old walked up to the massive green building, wiping his face of the tears that stained it. He just lost his parents to a gang not too long ago. He walked up to the large emerald green doors and pushed them open. He was greeted by a very pretty woman with long blonde hair.

"Why, hello! What's your name?" she asked in a sweet tone.

"B-Bwadley," the boy said in a soft voice as tears slowly trickled down his cheeks.

"Aww... What's the matter, sweetie? Come here," she said in a caring voice as she picked the boy up in her arms. He bawled in her arms as she held him to her chest.

"Shh... It's all right, Bradley... Just tell little old me what's wrong."

A few minutes later, Bradley calmed down and the woman took him into a private room. She sat him down in a chair and sat in a chair next to him.

"Now; tell me why you came here, sweetie." Bradley looked at the green tiled floor and hesitated to answer her.

"M-my... My mommy and daddy were killed... B-by a bunch of thugs. Mommy told me about Lady Green Heart and the Basillicom. I-I... I'm scared. W-What if the thugs come after me?" Bradley whimpered as he looked up at the woman. She pets the black haired boy's head softly.

"Don't worry... You're safe here, sweetie," she smiled, "I'll personally take real good care of you... Or, my name isn't Green Heart!" Bradley looked in shock at the woman.

"You're... L-Lady Green Heart!" Bradley gasped in shock.

"Yes, I am... And, I have decided to adopt you. From now on, I will be your big sister," she smiled, "But, you will refer to me as Vert or Sis."

"O-ok," Bradley said timidly.

"Oh, no need to be afraid of me... I'm not mean," Vert smiled as she pets his head again. Bradley clutched Vert's blouse and looked up into her emerald green eyes.

"I'll always protect you."

-Years Later; Vert's Room- A young boy about 12 years old walked into Lady Green Heart's room.

"Sis! Are you here?!" the boy called. Vert turned away from her tv and smiled.

"Yes, I'm here," she smiled as the boy sat next to her on her bed.

"Whatcha playing?"

"Final SciFi 8."

"Huh? I thought you didn't like that game."

"You should know by now that I love all type of games, Bradley."

"Oh... I forgot about that."

Suddenly, a ring was heard from the left side of the tv. Vert stood up and walked over to the tv. She picked up a black telephone receiver and held it up to her ear.

"Hello?" Vert said in a mature tone. Bradley could hear a muffled voice talk out of the receiver.

"I see... I will be at Planeptune shortly."

She placed the receiver behind the tv and looked at Bradley.

"I have important matters to attend to... I will be back soon, my little brother. Oh! Before I forget..."

Vert took something out of her blouse sleeve. A small lilac sliver was in her hand.

"If anything happens, use this. It's a CPU Memory... If you ingest this, you will become a CPU like me," Vert said seriously as she gave him the sliver. He looked at the sliver then back at Vert.

"I promise that I will return... You can count on it."

She kissed his forehead and stood up straight. She then went out her bedroom door, leaving Bradley all alone. He looked at the sliver and sighed.

"Sis... I hope you'll be ok," Bradley said worriedly.
