Hello everyone, I hope that you are still enjoying my story. If you have ideas or thoughts or advice please leave them in a review. I do not own Heaven's lost Property etcetera, etcetera.
-Synapse-
"Daedalus, can you hear me?" Minos began, a smile spread across his face, his arms crossed. He was floating above a beautiful forest, filled with tree houses, which were empty, all but one with his Angeloid by his side. Before Daedalus could respond his Angeloid disappeared, leaving the two to converse.
"What do you want Minos?" A girl with light blue hair that covered her eyes, wearing a white dress, responded from inside.
"I don't want anything more than to let you know that I'll be using the bug that recently appeared for… entertainment." Minos replied wearing a wolfish grin.
Daedalus stayed silent for a moment. "What are you talking about?"
He smiled wider, hearing that she had no idea who he was made this even better. "Excellent, I get to use this new insect to kill your 'daughters', then I can watch him squirm and beg at my feet as my newest Angeloid tortures him!" he began to laugh at the thought. "Now if you'll excuse me, I need to prepare it's almost time to introduce myself to that disgusting creature.
-Chiba's POV-
"That was probably the most fun I have ever had." I said getting into my sleeping bag. It was a wasted effort, Sugata was already fast asleep and I was so exhausted it probably sounded like mumbling. It didn't take long for me to fall asleep.
What… Where am I? Not again. Why am I in a Greek temple?
"Hello Chiba." I heard a voice from behind me.
I spun around as fast as I could. "Who… are you?" I asked a blond man sitting in a throne, he looked bored.
Shock flashed across his face for a moment then he smiled an unfriendly smile. "I am the person that knows who you are." He waited a moment, "I can give you the answers you seek but first you need to do something for me."
He knows who I am? "What do you need me to do?"
He pulled out a cared that looked a lot like one of Ikaros' "Take this, use the abilities it gives you to kill that wretched insect Tomoki Sakurai, and those traitors, the Alpha, Beta, and Delta." He said his voice dripping with disdain.
My eyes widened with anger. "Who do you think you are? Why do you want me to kill Tomoki? And who are Alpha, Beta, and Delta?"
He stopped laughing and stared down at me. "Are you questioning me? Do you not want to know who you really are?" He stood up. "Perhaps I should just kill you now, you disobedient insect!" He held out his hand and what looked like a lightning bolt appeared in it, maybe it was metal, but it looked as dangerous as a bolt of lightning.
"No!" I screamed. I extended my hand "I… I'll do it, give me the card." I said quietly.
"Much better." He smiled again. "I will forgive your insolence this time, but only because you entertained me so much." He sat back down and rested his cheek on his fist. "Now, go kill the Alpha. You know her as Ikaros." He commanded with another large smile.
My eyes widened at the order.
I… Don't think I could do that, not to any of them, but especially not her.
I woke up in a cold sweat. What the hell just happened?
"Good morning" Sugata said in an admittedly bored tone.
"Huh? Good morning." I said. "I had this crazy dream. I was in a Greek temple and this man…" I trailed off, I could feel the card he'd given me in my hand. "Never mind. I can't remember, it probably wasn't that important."
"That seems to be happening a lot. Are you repressing something from your past?" He said, sounding more interested. I stared at him for a moment before he said, "Anyway, are you ready for your first official meeting of the New World Discovery Club?"
"What?" I replied still groggy.
"I have decided to hold a meeting today, to induct you into The New World Discovery Club officially, and to prepare to explore the New World." He reminded sounding more excited than I was.
"When you're done, could you go get some firewood for lunch?"
I nodded.
Sugata's POV
"Sugata~" I heard a voice sing behind me "What's with the emergency club meeting?" I turned to see Mikako, my childhood friend and all-around terrible person. She had long beautiful purple hair with a ribbon and some bells tied in it, and equally beautiful purple eyes.
"I figured we could explore the Synapse more effectively with more than one person. So we'll be inducting Chiba into the club, and preparing for an expedition." I said flatly in an attempt to hide my true feelings for her.
"I see, and where exactly did Chiba run off to?" She rested her cheek on the back of her hand.
"I sent him to gather firewood while I got everything prepared, and made a checklist of things we'll need." I said while I took note of the glider parts, and looked over the dive game machine.
"You wanna know what I think?" She looked at me intently. "I think you knew I was going to be here early, and you sent him away so we could have some alone time." She smiled and took a step toward me.
I turned to fully face her "What are you talking about? "
"Come on Sugata, you're smart, you must've known I would be the first to arrive, so you sent our dear friend Chiba away to gather firewood."
"I have no idea what you are talking about." I said, about turn away
"Well that's too bad…" she trailed off as she pressed her body against mine "I was looking forward to a little… one on one time."
"What are you doing Mikako?" I asked trying to keep my voice level
She gave me a seductive smile and said "You know exactly what I'm doing."
"If you want to seduce someone try Tomoki." I said in a flat tone. I didn't actually mean that though.
I know it was a short chapter compared to the last one, but it was my first time writing form Sugata's POV and I wanted to know what you thought. How could I improve? Please leave your tips as a review or PM. Who would you like to "see" more of in terms of characters? And since I would like better interaction with whoever reads this, what's your favorite fruit? I would have to say mine is blackberries. Remember any tips or requests are appreciated, even if they aren't implemented right away.
