A/N; All right, so this is the another chapter for this fanfiction of mine. Anyway enjoy. Obviously, I don't own Gods Eater Burst and its characters aside from mine (Yuzuki Ito). Also, I'm going to follow the original story a little bit up till the one I'm currently on the game. I still haven't finish it yet though. There may have some slight changes or major changes. Of course, my protagonist will have more character than in the game. So I'm going to give her a tragic past, and not let her be too over powered in here. It's too unrealistic for me. Anyway enjoy. Reviews are appreciated ( 'w' )

Yuzuki walked back to the entrance of the Fenrir Far East Branch. She looked around. There were couches around the tables. In the corner of the couch, a young boy dressed in a yellow vest, orange shorts, yellow bandana, and peach-colored scarf sat. Deciding to sit next to him, she walked towards him and sat although she had given as much space as possible for him to not talk to her. She did not want to socialize to anyone, but it seemed that fate wasn't going to let her have her way. "Hey… you want some gum?" the boy asked as he checked his pockets, "Oh, I'm all out. Looks like I just used the last piece. Sorry 'bout that."

Yuzuki was thankful that the conversation would end there, but it didn't. The boy introduced himself, "I am Kota Fujiki. What's yours?"

Yuzuki answered without looking at him, "Yuzuki Ito."

"So you were a match, too?"

Yuzuki nodded at him. Obviously, she didn't want to talk to anyone right now. Actually, she didn't even talk that much. She preferred to be alone in her daydreams.

"That makes two of us… You must be my age… or maybe a little older," Kota said, "Oh well, I'm still your senior by a nanosecond! Nice to meet you!"

Yuzuki glanced at the boy next to her. He seemed to be raised well, she thought, probably because of his parents. To fight against the Aragami, he's too carefree… not that I care. If he dies, then he dies.

She broke out of her thoughts when she heard footsteps approaching. A woman dressed in white approached the two. Her long, wavy, black hair was on one side of her shoulder, and a clipboard was held in her left arm. "… Stand up." She said.

"Huh?" Kota was dumbfounded.

"I said, 'Stand up!' on your feet!" She said, her tone giving off the superiority.

Not wasting a moment, Yuzuki and Kota stood up although Kota's head was tilted upwards looking at the ceiling.

"I'm on a tight schedule, so I'll be keeping this short. My name is Tsubaki Amamiya, and I'm your advisor," she said, "this is your schedule – after the medical checkup you'll complete a full curriculum of basic physical training, basic combat training, as well as a weaponry/armor clinic."

Yuzuki didn't like this woman. She would probably be too strict to teach new recruits. Not to mention, she was giving off fear. She looked at the worn and old armlet on her advisor's wrist. Even though Yuzuki hated the woman, the busted armlet proved to her that Tsubaki had a lot of experience in battling the Aragami thus a growing respect was forming.

Tsubaki continued, "We are the one's who have been protecting you up until now. But from this day forward, you'll be doing the protecting. If you don't want to die over something stupid, then answer my every order with a 'Yes'. Understood?"

Yuzuki nodded whilst Kota didn't respond, but it would seemed the Amazonian woman didn't like the answer. She shouted, "Answer me!"

Not wanting to anger her, Yuzuki and Kota answered, "Yes, ma'am!"

"All right, let's begin the medical checkups. We'll start with you," she looked at Yuzuki, "Report to Dr. Paylor Sakaki's room by 1500 hours. Take a tour of the facilities until then. This is your new home, the Fenrir Far East Branch, a.k.a. 'The Den'. Make sure you pay your respects to the members of your team."

She then dismissed the two. Yuzuki was contemplating on going directly to this Dr. Paylor Sakaki or tour around her supposed new home. When she had come to the conclusion, she then walked to her advisor. "I would like to know where Dr. Sakaki's room is."

"Go up the stairs and take the 'Section Elevator' to the 'Laboratory'. Head toward 'Dr. Sakaki's Laboratory' at the far end of the corridor," she answered, "when you're done with your checkup, I want you to come back here… Understand?"

"Understood!"

"All right, now be on your way."

Wasting no time, Yuzuki immediately went to the elevator and went to the Laboratory Section. Entering the new floor, she was greeted by a pink-haired girl. "Oh… hello there…"

Yuzuki merely nodded at her.

"Oh, so you're the rookie! They said that we'd be getting two new kids…" she said, "you must be on your way to your medical checkup, then! It's at the end of the hall in Dr. Sakaki's lab."

"Thank you." Her tone was monotonous.

"I… I see…" the pink-haired girl was taken aback by Yuzuki's lack of emotion. Trying to continue the conversation, she said, "Doc's a little eccentric, but… Oh, but hey! He's a very kind man! You'll be fine!"

With a blank expression, Yuzuki stared at her. The pink-haired girl was getting too uncomfortable from the lack of responses she was receiving. Trying to get away from the awkward conversation, she said before walking away to the elevator, "I must have been taking your time. It was nice knowing you! My name is Kanon Daiba, feel free to ask me anytime."

With that, Yuzuki stood there alone in the hall. She then proceeded to enter Dr. Sakaki's lab. Inside the lab, a white-haired man with glasses sat on a chair typing on a keyboard and looking at multiple computer screens, and the Director, Johannes Von Schicksal, stood beside him. "Hmm… you got here 726 seconds sooner than I expected. Good to see you, New-Type!" greeted the white-haired man, "I'm Paylor Sakaki, and I'm in charge of Aragami technology R&D. Well… we'll be seeing a lot of each other from now on. Welcome aboard."

He continued typing. "Now then, as you can see, I'm still pretty busy getting prepared. Johannes, why don't you get your business out of the way first?"

"Dr. Sakaki, I think it's high time you learned to separate business from private matters." He then looked from the doctor to Yuzuki, "Thank you for taking part in the Aptitude Test. My name is Johannes von Schicksal. I'm in charge of the Fenrir Branch of this region."

This guy… I don't trust him… for some unknown reason… I can't seem to tell what he's thinking. I… have to watch out for him, thought Yuzuki. Not knowing how to respond, she merely nodded.

"Congratulations again on passing the test. I expect great things from you." he said.

"He's a former techie, too, you know. The New-Types' medical checkups interest you to no end, right, Johannes?" the doctor intervened.

"I decided to retire as a techie because we have you. Keep that in mind." the director replied.

"Did you really ever retire though?"

"Hmm… Now then, this is where the real fun starts. Let me explain the Fenrir Corporation's objectives once more," The director ignored the doc's question and shifted his attention to Yuzuki, "Your direct duties are very simple. They are to keep the Aragami in this region at bay… and to gather materials… which are then converted into resources needed to maintain this advance base, as well as to complete the impending 'Aegis Project'."

"Ugh… look at these numbers…" Paylor said.

"The Aegis Project… is, simply put, a plan to create a utopia impregnable against Aragami attacks, located far out to sea, close to the former Sea of Japan trench."

"Ahh…" Paylor, once again, interrupted him.

The director was barely tolerating the doctor's antics, yet he continued his lecture to Yuzuki. "Once the project is complete, humankind will be able to avoid extinction, at least for a while."

"Amazing! So this is what a New-Type is like!" the doctor said out loud, not realizing that he interrupted the director.

Not wanting to be interrupted again, the director said to the doctor, "Paylor… You're disrupting my lecture."

"Oh, sorry about that. I was just so taken aback by these stats… I got carried away."

Is this really necessary? I just want to get this over with, Yuzuki thought, I'm too tired… not to mention, I don't want to stay with these two any longer…

"…At any rate, the future of humankind is at stake. So give it your best effort. All right, I'll be taking my leave now. I'm leaving it all to you, Paylor. Send me the date when you're done." The director finally said before leaving the room.

The doctor then focused his attention on Yuzuki other than his computer screens. "Okay, we're good to go now. Lie down on that bed, will you? You'll feel sleepy for a little while, but I assure you there's nothing to worry about. When you wake up, you'll be in your own room."

Not completely trusting him, Yuzuki decided to ask him, "You won't do anything will you?"

"Don't worry. Just a little cat nap, so to speak… you'll get about 10,800 seconds."

"Who'll carry me back?"

The doctor stared at her, trying to analyze the problem, yet… he couldn't get a response. "Someone will come in here and carry you to your room."

Yuzuki stood there. She couldn't fully trust someone when she was at a vulnerable state. "I trust that nothing would happen to me, will it?"

"Yes, nothing bad will happen. This is just an ordinary medical checkup. Sweet dream!"

Yuzuki walked towards the bed and lie down on it. She closed her eyelids, and let sleep overtake her. Fortunately, the fatigue of her body made it easy for her to go to sleep. Once Dr. Sakaki saw her asleep, he checked her profile. Scrolling down, a specific information caught his eye. "… I see… so this is what you're telling me, Johannes."

He looked at the sleeping figure of the girl lying on the bed. "Indeed… You definitely are going to become a powerful soldier."

He stood up from his seat and prepared the medical checkup. When he was done with his work, his door slid open. A blue-hooded teen carrying papers with one hand entered his room. "Old Man Sakaki, here's the documents you needed."

"Ah, thank you, Soma. I was just about to head over to Tsubaki to get those," the doctor walked towards him and took the papers from him, "Say… could you carry this girl to her room?"

"Who's this?"

"The 'New-Type' Gods Eater, Yuzuki Ito. You best carry her to the Rookies' Section. You could probably find her name on one of the vacant rooms."

"Who said I will do this task?"

"Come now. It's not that hard."

"Do it yourself."

"I would if I had the physical capabilities," he raised his arms to prove his point, "and besides… I don't think this girl fully trusts me."

"Not my problem."

The door slid open again and came in the black-haired man. "Hey doc. I got the things you needed."

"Ah, thank you, Lindow."

"If I'm not needed here, then I best be on my way out then." Soma said before heading to the door.

"Lindow, would you please order Soma here to carry the girl back to her room?" Dr. Sakaki pointed at the sleeping girl, "It seemed that I had no choice but to rely on your position as leader."

"Got it! Hey Soma, I order you as leader to do as Dr. Sakaki ask." said Lindow.

"… Damn it." Soma muttered, knowing full well that he cannot disobey an order from a leader.

The injuries that should take weeks to heal just healed in a day. Is she really human?

I heard that whoever plays with her, always get hurt badly.

Really? She must be bad luck then.

Yeah, not only that but her parents weren't actually hers to begin with.

So she's adopted?

Seems like it. Well, maybe her real parents must have dumped her. Who would take care of a child like her?

The adopted parents must be really nice to take care of a monster like her.

Yuzuki sat up from a bed and gasped for air. "A… nightmare."

She looked around her. She was in a room that's for sure. There were four light bulbs that lit the whole room, two couches were placed around a wooden table, there were counters, which were curved on the corner of the room, a large screen that depicted the grassy fields and mountains, and a terminal was built on the opposite corner from the counters.

Why was I in a room? She thought, Ah, I remember. Dr. Sakaki told me that someone would carry me to my room.

She looked around her room. This is… home now, huh.

She stood up and walked out of her room meeting with a guy clothed in green jacket over a purple shirt and a cap. "Hey, rookie… I was about to go get you since Tsubaki asked me to. Take the 'Section Elavator' to the 'Entrance Section' and see Tsubaki. Rookies have to work hard for the chance to earn rewards, you know. Well… good luck, kid!"

Yuzuki nodded in response and left.

"The name's Shun by the way!" she heard him shout behind her.

Tsubaki stood near the counter of the Den's operator, Hibari. "What is the director thinking?" she muttered, "to think he would send out the New-Type recruit to battle without any sort of training."

A knock grabbed the director's attention from his work. "Come in."

"Director, did you call me for something?" Tsubaki entered the office.

"Ah, yes, I did. This is regarding the New-Type, Yuzuki Ito."

"Did… she do something?" Tsubaki asked, worried what the girl did wrong when it was her first day.

"No. It's nothing to be concerned of," the director assured her, "I want you to not give her any training. Allow her to go on missions."

Tsubaki stood there shocked. The director was sending out a new recruit without any training or battle experience in the field? That was absurd. It was like throwing a child in the middle of the war. "Director… I must say that this order is quite reckless. She is still inexperienced, and without any training, I doubt she would survive in less than a minute out there."

"Even if that is the case, I would like to see her in battle without any form of teaching. Don't worry about it. Just send her with at least one person on the job."

"Director… maybe you should reconsider. Many rookies died on the job due to their incompetence. Not to mention, due to their indecision and lack of battle experience, they tend to be the reason for the death of the whole team."

"… I doubt those cases would happen if it's her."

"And what reason would prove that point."

By that, there was a prolonged silence. The silence lasted only a minute, but in this atmosphere, it felt like it lasted more than that. It was not long that the director gave her his reason. "She's… special."

"…Director, that doesn't seem to be a valid reason to-"

"We are at a crucial times. I trust that you understand this."

"Even so-"

"Fine. We will send her to missions, and watch her battles. We will see in one week's time what she necessary needs to be taught in some areas that she is weak at. Agreed?"

Now, here she was contemplating on her agreement. Maybe… I shouldn't have agreed to it.

"Tsubaki… ma'am." a voice brought her out of her thoughts.

"What is it?" she replied to one of the new recruits, Kota.

"When will the training start?"

"Just wait a moment."

As soon as she finished speaking, the elevator doors slid open. There, the so-called-special rookie, in what the director had described, exited. The black-haired girl walked towards Tsubaki. "I'm here."

"Good… I have something to announce to you."

"And that is?"

"The director seemed fixated on allowing you to go on missions and not had to deal with any sort of training" Tsubaki announced to her, "you are then supposed to start a mission with the 1st unit leader, Lindow Amamiya. Proceed to the Den's operator, Hibari Takeda, to brief you more on the mission."

"I see…" the girl said with a blank expression.

I can't tell her reaction, but it seemed like she's trying her best not to panic. She's quite calm and collected, a trait needed for a Gods Eater, Tsubaki thought, she still seemed frail, and the fact that she would start going to missions proved to kill her in the field.

"I understand that the decision is quite reckless," Tsubaki said, trying to appease her from panicking although she couldn't tell from her expression, "if you want, I would try to ask the director to reconsider-"

"No need," Yuzuki immediately answered, "I'll get the job done."

"No way! You're not going to do any training?" Kota exclaimed, "That is so not fair!"

Yuzuki ignored Kota and headed to Hibari for a briefing. With concerned eyes, Tsubaki watched the girl. She shook her head and looked towards Kota. "Alright, follow me." she said sternly.

"Yes ma'am." replied Kota, and he dreaded on the training he would receive.
