Winter's POV
We walked back to the Den hand in hand after the earlier incident with the Aragami. However, I couldn't continue to walk around the Den whilst holding Kanon's hand out of embarrassment so I let go as we did.
'I just hope that Kanon will understand.' I think as I head to Sakaki's office. I can't help but notice everyone staring at me. The most nerving part is that I know why they're staring at me as well. It's not every day that a person walks in with pale pink wings with claws at the end of them, which is exactly what I want to see Sakaki about. I walk into his office without knocking.
"Sakaki, I have an update and I'm sure I don't need to explain it." I say as I close the door behind me and walk up to his desk. There sits a smiling Sakaki.
"Ah, a pink? Would I be correct in assuming that you had an intimate moment with Kanon?" Sakaki asks with a smug smile on his face. Don't ask me how I knew it was smug, I just got the feeling that it was. I don't dignify him with a response, just an annoyed expression.
"Well, judging on how you haven't denied it, I'll assume that I was correct."
"Listen Doc, I've grown claws on my wings as well..." I say, pointing out the new features. He frowns,
"I've noticed. Tell me, during yours and Kanon's moment," I seriously think about hitting him right now, "Did you have a resonance?" Sakaki asks. I think for a while before reaching a conclusion,
"No, I didn't."
"I see. Did she?" He asks with his voice laced in curiosity.
"I'm not sure. I didn't ask. I didn't think it was possible." I say simply, "Why do you ask?"
"Remember, I hypothesised that the reason your wings keep changing colour is due to resonances. So if they've changed again, and you claim not to have had a resonance, did Kanon have one instead?" He asks and I can't help but wonder about the possibility that Kanon had a resonance.
"I thought it was unique to the New-Types." I state.
"We only thought that because it occurred between the New-Types. We don't have enough evidence to conclude that resonances occur only between them. Anyway, you should go and find out if she did have a resonance, it could be essential to our research." Sakaki dismisses me and I leave his office.
I head to Hibari's desk to see if she can tell me where Kanon is but I am told that she left the Den not long ago.
"Well, I'll just have to wait until I get back." I speak aloud.
"Yeah, sorry about that." Hibari apologises.
"It's fine. I'll probably go and work on my Arc now. When Kanon comes in tell her I'll be in the crafting room in Storage Area 2." I tell Hibari and give her a wave as I set off for the crafting room. Before reaching it though, I drop by my old God Arc.
"I thought I heard somebody in here." Licca says as she emerges from the corridor lading to the crafting room.
"Yeah, I see you've been taking good care of her." I look to my old God Arc.
"Her?" Licca repeats, "I didn't think you were the type to personify their God Arc."
"Yeah, well, I've been missing it." I say and she turns away, saying something that I don't listen to. I feel my eyes being drawn to my God Arc and soon enough, my arm is drawn to it as well. I feel my hand touch it which releases a bright white light. I notice Licca turn back towards me to identify the source of the light but she turns back around due to its intensity.
"What are you doing?" She asks, covering her eyes with her arm and looking towards me.
I find myself looking back towards her as the light intensifies.
"All I did was touch it." I state and the light dies down. We look back to the God Arc and find it not there anymore.
"What?!" We both say. I extend my hand out to touch the position it was once in and notice a glimmer in my arms. Licca must have noticed it too,
"Your arm looks like the night sky." She comments, with my arm now looking as if someone spilled glitter into a liquid. The white specks constantly travel up and down my arm as if my arm was a liquid. I bring myself back to my senses,
"That doesn't matter at the moment, I want to know where my old God Arc went." I say, looking away from my arm and towards my old Arc's case.
"Well, since there is only the two of us here, nobody could have stole it. I have a theory on what happened... You know that Lindow's God Arc can be released from his hand? Well, I believe it may be the same case for you. Somehow, when you touched your Arc it sent white specks into your arm. This might be the energy of your God Arc. Come with me, Winter." She says and leads me to the training room.
"Go inside here and try to release your God Arc from your hand."
"I can attempt to but I don't think that is what happened." I say before entering the training room.
After numerous attempts to release my God Arc from my hand, it finally happens.
"Great! I knew that was the case!" Licca shouts in excitement.
"This is great and all but how do I bring it back?" I ask as I move my hand in the opposite way of what I was doing before.
"Just keep trying. You'll get it eventually." Licca says and I continue to try to put y God Arc back. Moments later, my God Arc retracts back into my arm.
"Yeah! See! I told you! Now keep doing that until you get the hang of it!" She shouts and we continue to test the extraction and retraction of the God Arc. Hours later, Licca tells me that she thinks I've trained enough.
"Just a thought, but what will happen to my new God Arc?" I ask her.
"Well, since your body has already been injected with the Bias Factor for it, I suppose that you will need to keep using it." She says with a hand to her chin.
"But I have this God Arc though..." I say and make a hand gesture, making the God Arc come out.
"Yeah well, you could die if you are not in regular contact with your new Arc so, I suppose you will be the very first Dual Wielding God Eater..."
