A/N: so everyone my classes are over for today and after finding out that on the university they will show every Thursday at half eight an Anime movie I'm in a good mode and now I will reveal the secret which Sephiria and Belze found out…

III. Dark secrets part II.


Belze walked in silence beside Sephiria. The man was still desperately trying to get the heat out of his checks, but he failed. Ok, he told Sephiria after she was chosen to become a Number that he would be there for her and help h every time she needed it, but standing in the woman's washroom and holding her hair up while she was throwing up was a bit to much. And to ad to his luck there come Xiao and Janus again, later one with one eye patch and a bandaged hand.

"Hey, Belze some female agents said that they saw you in the ladies room." Xiao said.

"He was only holding my hair up as I threw up." Sephiria stepped in.

"Oh, congratulations. Sephe-nee, can I name the baby if it is a boy?" Janus asked grinning.

"Erm…uh…Janus…we should go now." Xiao said as he tried desperately to drag his partner away, but failed and so the youngest Number needed to explain to the doctor that the bloody plump he put on the table was actually Number VII. and not strawberry pudding.


After three hours sat every Number gathered in Karl's office, everyone looking confused at the duo who made everyone gather there.

"Sephiria, why are we here?" Xiao asked.

"Karl, Mason, what do you know about operation Oni?" Sephiria asked, her tone emotionless. Everyone looked confused from her at the two men who suddenly seemed nervous.

"Nothing." Mason said, but everyone flinched as the young woman threw some files on the table, he eyes filled with anger and disgust.

"NOTHING YOU DARN WELL KNOW WHAT THIS PROJECT IS! YOU KNEW WHAT THE ELDERS DID TO HEARTNET AND DIKENSE!!" she yelled at the two men, startling and confusing everyone at the same time.

"Sephiria, calm down." Xiao said. He was not long a Number, but he knew that I. wouldn't act like this.

"We should tell…" said Karl as he took a deep sigh. "Operation Oni means that the Elders decided that they want to use the power of Gods to rule earth. They found out about a family about which old scripts say that one of they ancestors who started the family was the XIII.th demon who was sealed away. Many documents say that behind every powerful person started from Rammses, Alexander the Great to Napoleon, behind every of them stood a member of this family, but when they parted away they fell. So the Elders wanted someone who they could manipulate to work for them." Karl said.

"After they found the family they paid a woman to get taken up as maid in the house. She then manipulated the car of the older hair so that they had an accident. The man and his wife dyed by the accident, but they four years old son lived and was taken away by the woman who after the police was after her gave the child to her friend who was a prostitute and obviously didn't take good car of the child who then killed her in reflex. Meanwhile wanted the elders to create the perfect partner for him, a mate you could say to who he would get fixated. For this they used pairs who were soon having a child, and while the parents didn't notice our scientists injected the unborn children with animal DNA. Many results dyed on the next two weeks or only lived for a second looking like grotesque monsters except for one child. So the Elders ordered one of they outside men to hire one assassin who should kill the parents. Unfortunately the man had the principle to never kill a pair who has a child and took the boy with him. After a while he was found and executed and the boy come to us." Mason ended the explaining and watched the pale faces of the others. For a long time there was only death silence in the room.

"Ugh…you mean…" Naizer said.

"The child whose parents were killed in that accident and is also partly demon was Creed and the child who's genes were manipulated was Train." Karl said, his voice filled with guilt. The whole room feel again in silence.

"We are the marionettes of power hungry monsters…" Sephiria whispered in a dark tone.

She wanted to believe that all this was only a nightmare, that the Elders weren't so cruel. She accepted that the enemies of Cronos must be deleted, but Creed's and Train's family didn't do anything. She knew that after this day she couldn't see any of the two in the eyes without fling the guild eating on her soul. How could the Elders do that to two children from which one was to young to protect himself and the other not even born, and what about the failed experiments, about the innocent families they have destroyed.

"Th's…th's omny a loke mght?" Janus asked.

"What did that mummy face just say?" Baldor asked.

"Uhm, he said 'this is only a joke right?" Xiao translated.

"How can you understand what he said?" Naizer asked stunned.

"I have a four three years old little sister, she talks like that." The Chinese man explained.

"Oh." Was the answer.

"So you say that the elders did something by that and that Dickens is at least part demon." Baldor spat as he crossed his arms in front of his chest.

"I think this is the truth." Suddenly everyone was staring at Kranz.

"What?" Baldor said while staring shocked at his partner.

"I once overheard he second Elder as he said that Heartnet is getting harder to control and that they can't risk to lose they precious pets even if they need to sacrifice the whole organization, as long as they have they beasts they can't fail." Kranz said.

"Wait, they want to sacrifice us all?" asked Naizer.

"Yes, we are useless in they eyes." Mason said.

"I have decided." Sephiria said suddenly, causing everyone to look at her.

"What did you decide?" Belze asked.

"I won't let them continue."

"What?"

"I won't let those bastards continue. I will not let them use the two even if I need to dye for they freedom and safety." She said as she stood up. "Now decide, will you stand on my side or will you be against me." She said.

"We all stand to you." The other Numbers answered in union.

To be continued…
