Green eyes looked up when a large flock of birds came over head. A little boy about 8 years of age stood there. This boy went by the name of Tomoki. He saw smoke rising over the horizon. Taking a dash, he ran toward the smoke and stopped dead when he came to the old abandoned warehouse. Smoke came out of the windows.
Tomoki ran inside and stopped dead again with pure shock. It was a lab. Huge wires littered the floor. Tomoki's eyes came to a naked body sprawled in some glass. Wires coming from his arm that was linked inside what looked like a glowing large stasis tube. Gasping, Tomoki ran up just as figure was starting to move. He looked no more than 12 years of age. Brown hair stuck out below his ears, and he was thin. Full yellow eyes opened. Tomoki backed away when he saw it happen. He continued to watch the stranger's eyes change to a beautiful brown color.
"Tomoki! Tomoki? Where are you?"
Tomoki chewed on the bottom of his lip. He didn't want to leave the poor boy lying on the floor, wires stuck to his arms. Sighing in defeat, Tomoki turned and ran out to see his friends running, Izumi, Kouji, and Junpie running up.
"Tomoki, there you are!" she dropped to one knee and hugged the child.
"You guys, come quickly! There's a boy tied up and the building is burning down! We have to save him!" Tomoki informed, pulling on Izumi's arm.
Kouji and Junpie gave each other sideways glances and nodded their heads. Both boys took off running. Izumi called after them, but it was too late.
Brown eyes looked around in confusion. The brown-haired boy didn't noticing that the place was on fire. He turned his head, hearing two voices coming from his right. He stared at Kouji and Junpie. The teen watched Kouji and Junpei unhook him from the wires and lift him up. Damn, he's heavy! Junpie thought.
"Now, let's get out of here! Can you walk?" He asked.
Just then part of the beams started to fall. The first thing both boys did was shield the stranger. Kouji turned his head and looked around to see that they either had to make a break for it or get burned up. With the last ditch of effort, Kouji scooped the brown-haired teen in his arms and started to run for the exit with Junpie close behind.
More flames leaped out, and the roof caved in. Izumi screamed. She fearfully looked into the smoke, hoping to see them come out all right. After one moment, Kouji emerged out of the smoke, holding the brunette in his arms with Junpie by his side. Izumi blinked several times when she saw the new boy's naked body. The first thing she did was took her coat off, and draped it over him. Poor thing, she thought.
"Come on. Let's get out of here! He's starting to get heavy," Kouji insisted.
A black car came to a halt in front of the burnt down warehouse. A man stepped out of his car and stopped three feet away. He watched the place burn. Another man came up, and handed him a black cell phone. Dialing a number he put it to his ear.
"Get me Mr. Kanbara," He said. The flames danced on the outside surface of his son glasses.
"What do you have to report?"
"Someone had raided the lab and took experiment 6-2-5 -"
"He must be found, and the codes recovered!"
"Right sir."
