Chapter 2: The truth
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Dai kept on walking, determined to ask her parents what her dream actually meant.
That was, until she entered the house. Now, she didn't know WHAT to do.
On one hand, maybe she was just plain wrong and invented the guy. But was happened if it was the truth? What if it wasn't just some wonky dream? What if...
She shook her head. Man! She was delusional!
She unmade her pony tail, quickly twisted it with a pencil to make a somewhat messy bun and fastened it with other pencils and went to her dad's garage.
Even if Sai wasn't stationed on the Archangel anymore, he was still collaborating in a different way. He was building Gundam parts, weapons more precisely, for the Strike
Dai found him in front of his computer while his three helpers were building some sort of cannon.
She 'plopped' on her dad's head and said:
"Hey dad, what're you working on again?"
Sai got Dai's hand out of the way and replied:
"For the fifth time, I'm building an Alpha-Beta cannon."
"And what is this Alpha-Beta cannon thingy supposed to do?"
"It puts together hydrogenised acids and pyrokenetics to make a very big blast..."
Dai yawned.
"That's all it could do? I'm glad I forgot..."
"I'm afraid so my gory child..."
"Now now you two, quit quarrelling. We already have enough with the war going on..."
Both Sai and Dai turned to see Fllay with a small tray of tea and sweets, obviously bringing a treat to the hard-working team. She walked to a nearby table, placed the little silver tray and turned to the teen, her brows slightly frowned.
"I received a phone call from Mrs. Tanaisashi. She said that you fell asleep right in the middle of class!"
Dai's face became red.
"Umm, you see, I..."
Fllay gave a small chuckle and stroke her face.
"Come on Dai, it's not a big deal. Just promise me you'll get a good night's sleep tonight, okay?"
"Yes mom..."
"And I mean it!! I don't want to find you sleeping on your dad's computer programming that cannon of his!!"
"Mom! I got it! I'll go to sleep at nine okay?"
Fllay sighed in relief.
"Good. Now I'll leave you to your sweet eating..."
She left a small plate of cookies in front of Dai and left.
Dai was about to eat a cookie in one bite (as usual) when all of a sudden a little blond-haired and blue-eyed boy leapt on her lap, thus making her yelp, choke on her cookie and pummel Kiyoshi with a punch.
Kiyoshi was Sai and Fllay's biological child and was born when Dai was nine, so that made her the older sister. In other words, the 'responsible one who should be a good example to him' as Fllay would say.
"Kiyoshi, get off me!"
She gently pushed the little boy of her lap. Kiyoshi puffed up his cheeks.
"I'm telling mommy you pushed me!"
And he stormed off. Dai chuckled. He always said that, but never actually carried it his plan.
She sighed, turned to a nearby computer and started typing in java script all the commands for the Alpha-Beta cannon.

"Daddy, why are we on Earth again?"
"Just follow me closely Dai..."
A five-year-old Dai kept on walking, clutching her purple and blue stuffed elephant tightly.
Both finally stopped in front of a white establishment. Dai's eyes widened. She knew where she was. She heard her father talk about it.
She tugged at her father's sleeve.
"Not now Dai."
She still held her father by his sleeve and walked as fast as her little legs could go.

"Don't worry Mr. Kira, she won't remember a thing from the past five years."
"Are you sure?"
" Affirmative. She only has 0.01 chances of remembering anything from her childhood."
Kira turned to his daughter and stroke her braided hair. They had no choice but to use a paralysing drug on her, since she was struggling, always screaming the same phrase over and over again:
"Let go of me! Let go of me! You're going to regret this!! Daddy, help me!"
It wasn't the phrase that marked him, but the way she was looking at him, with those big purple eyes, pleading him to make them let her go. But even if she was drugged, she was only paralysed. She was still conscious.
The cloaked man took a syringe out, placed the needle on it and put the transparent serum in the little girl's arm.
The little girl's moving eyes suddenly froze and closed shut.
The process had begun.

Dai woke up in a cold sweat and clutched her head, pulling some hair in the process.
"Why do I have these dreams? What do they mean?"
She looked at the wall in front of her and stared at it for a good five minutes before silently slipping out of her bed and heading to the master bedroom.
"Mom? Dad?"
She was replied with a moan, with Sai's wary voice saying:
"It's five in the morning Dai. Can't it wait a few hours?"
"I've been having these weird dreams where I'm calling this man named Kira 'Daddy'..."
Sai and Fllay immediately snapped awake and looked at her. Both adults sighed, and Fllay looked at her with teary eyes.
"Dai..."
She hid her face in her hands and started sobbing. She didn't want to say this. She looked at her and said:
"Dai, you're not who you really are..."
Her voice was chocked up, enabling her from speaking, thus leaving Sai to continue.
"You're a Coordinator Dai."
Dai's eyes widened and she opened her mouth, speechless. Sai continued:
"Your real name is Dai Cho Yamato."
The teen took a step back and ran to her room, slamming the door.
She clutched her hair, her hands covering her tear-stricken face. She let go of her hair. She sighed. It was all clear now: the fact that she felt different from everyone, how she was better in sports than the boys and her gym teacher. Everything was clear. She opened her drawer and took out a pair of scissors. Staring at them for a while, she brought them to her hair and started snipping her hair, one snip at a time...

Kiyoshi waited in the kitchen. Dai was nowhere. He had been waiting for half an hour and still no sign of her! Besides, she promised to go to the park with him today, since it was a Saturday and his parents went out to do a bit of grocery shopping.
He went back upstairs and decided to knock on her bedroom door.
"Go away." Said a somewhat wobbly female voice.
The little boy still turned the knob.
She was sitting on the side of her bed, wearing a black shirt and black pants, clutching a pair of scissors. He noticed that her hair was no longer reaching to the middle of her back, but that it was cut in a boy cut, her uneven bangs covering the eyes. A small duffel bag was sitting next to her on the floor, her left hand firmly gripping the handle.
" Kiyoshi, can you keep a secret?"
The six-year-old nodded and sat next to Dai on her bed.
The teen wrapped her right arm around the little shoulders and brought him closer.
"I'm running away..."
Kiyoshi's eyes widened. He replied in a whimpering tone:
"Why are you leaving?"
"I have some things to sort out. Things about the first five years of my life. I won't forget you Kiyoshi..."
She hugged him and he watched her walk out of her bedroom.
A few minutes later, the front door slammed.
The little boy turned around, clutched a lock of her brown hair and put it in his pocket.
