Rose: Konnichiwa people! I have to thank you for R&R my story! I'm so happy! ^^ The beginning or fist chapter of the story is going to be long compared to the other chapters. When important things happen, they will be longer. I will also have a type of schedule of trying to update every week either on Monday, Wednesday or Friday.
Saikyou: Schedule my ass…
Rose: ah… that would be my lovely assistant, Saikyou…
Saikyou: yo….
Rose: So, firstly, thank you to the person who told me the stuff about Sally Po!
Saikyou: we WANT Episode Zero, but, living in damn Barbados limits anime to only being able to watch DBZ in spanish (we aren't big fans of that show)
Rose: and Final Step was originally written by me and my sister (Shadow) but, I stopped and am now the co-producer and it is now on her account…
Saikyou: if you can't find the right user name, look up Duette in the summery, then go onto 'The Living Program' story etc…
Rose: Also, she changed the title because you can't have four steps in a waltz! -.-;;;
Saikyou: True, so, it has to do with a dance or something… * shrugs *
Rose: carrying on… yes, she will fall in love with one of the g-boys when she's older!
Saikyou: whoever guesses who it is first will win some sort of prize ^^
Rose: Prize? 0.o
Saikyou: HAI! : 3
Rose: …
Saikyou: And, if you guess what her real name means, you'll also win a prize!
Rose: 0.o o.0 0.o o.0

Rose speaking to the reader – Bold
A Tale of a Dark Angel
by Nobara Kiyoi Mitsukai
Chapter Two – Off to Train
-=A week later=-
"She still isn't talking…" Sally sighed slightly as she sat down at a table and rested her head on it. "She hasn't talked for the last week…" her head shook slowly.
"The, let's make her talk" one of the men said as he made a fist and cracked his knuckles slowly, a smirk on his face as he nodded slightly.
"No" the brunette replied quickly to that 'lovely' offer, "We aren't going to make her talk by force" the man just sighed.
"Then, how do we make her talk?" another male asked as Sally just shrugged,
"Well, she's been attached to that laptop most the time" a voice chuckled slowly.
"Who's there?" Po demanded quickly as a female walked out of the shadows. She had blond hair and green-blue eyes, wearing a pair of black pants, and a white top she bowed slightly.
"Call me Lisa" she coolly said with a nod, "Your little friend, Nobara, hasn't left that laptop out of her sight" the blond chuckled.
"Yes, I've noticed that, but, what does it have to do with her not talking?" the brunette asked as she stood up from the table and placed her hands down onto it, leaning onto them.
"It has to do with everything," Lisa said as a smirk appeared on her face as Sally nodded,
"All of you, out of here, that's an order, out, now" Sally snapped quickly as the men marched out of the room at their own pace.
"Thank you" the green-blue eyed girl said with a slight nod as she took a seat, "Now, where to start" she hummed slowly.
"Tell me why she's always got that laptop around her" Po simply said as Lisa nodded and the conversation about Nobara Kiyoi Mitsukai was on.
Yeah, so, I wasn't talking for a week… Can you guess why? Of course, what other reasons? I was hacking into their computers and files with my laptop. I couldn't let them know in case they made me stop but then Lisa came. Personally, I didn't like her. I met her when I was younger before this havoc had all started. She knew my parents as well, so, she figured me out after watching me... Man, did I get in trouble…
Rose sat in the computer room; her eyes locked onto the screen of the black laptop, pieces of paper scattered across the table with notes jotted down. This is where she had basically been living for the last week and it showed. Plates, cutlery, garbage, dirty clothing and other things were thrown across the room. It looked like a pigsty.
"Place password up" Nobara muttered to herself as she continued to type things into the laptop, "Lock files and…" but she was cut off by someone banging on the locked door.
"Nobara!" Sally shouted, "Open these doors this instant!" her voice sounded fairly angry and annoyed.
"Make me" Rose snapped back as she spun around on her chair and stared at the door, drumming her fingers on the arms rest as she waited.
"Fine" Lisa's voice calmly said, "Boys, care to open the door for me and Sally?" there were a few grunts and then the doors started to be pulled apart. Light slowly entered the dark room as the small girl just sat there and watched until the doors where fully opened. Her hand reached over to the table where it clasped the handle of her gun that she brought forwards onto her lap, still staring at Sally who stood watching her now.
"Rose, is that… You?" Sally asked quickly as the small girl stood up and walked into the light. Her hair had been cut so it was short and spiky; she was wearing dark blue jean shorts and a black halter-top, a black choker, black sneakers and a pair of shades on her head.
"No Sally" the girl snapped sarcastically, "I'm her evil twin sister trying to take over the world" her eyes were glancing about at the people near Sally, watching their movements.
"Now, that's not a nice way to talk to Sally, is it…" Lisa paused as she walked up beside the brunette and forwards slightly, "Wild Rose" the blond smiled as she watched Rose flinch slightly.
"Don't use that name" Nobara hissed slowly as her eyes now glared at Lisa,
"What name, Wild Rose?" the green-blue eyes girl teased as the smaller girl raised her gun.
"Say that name again and I swear I will kill you" the strawberry blond haired girl growled as she prepared to fire.
"Rose, that's enough" a voice said from behind her as she lowered her weapon and took a step backwards,
"Hai, sensei" she calmly said as she held the gun by her side.
"Sensei?" Sally questioned as she moved forwards slightly, "Rose, you have a teacher?" her head tilted slightly as the small girl looked behind her.
"Where is this" Lisa paused, "Teacher of yours?" her voice sounded amused as she looked around the room quickly.
"You won't be able to see him," Rose quickly said as she turned around and placed the gun back down onto the table and sat back down.
"What do you mean by that?" Sally asked as she raised an eyebrow and took a step forwards, her hand slowly slipping inside her vest ready to pull out a gun if needed.
"He's physically not here at the moment," the small girl quickly said as she grabbed a satchel from the side of the table and out it on the table, slowly packing things into it.
"That would mean its Doctor J…" the blond muttered slowly in slight shock, "This brat is actually the pilot?" her voice raised as she stormed out of the room quickly.
"Nobara, my men will be there tomorrow to pick you up" J's voice said quickly,
"Roger" Rose quickly replied before Sally could say anything.
"You're leaving tomorrow?" the brunette basically yelled at the small girl after sitting her down at a table, "Why didn't you tell me" she sighed, sitting down opposite from Nobara.
"Simple" Rose said, "I didn't want you to know I was leaving because I knew what would happen" she replied plainly, showing no expression on her face.
"What the hell is that supposed to mean!" Sally shouted as she slammed her fists onto the table, "I'm sick and tired of these answers that are like riddles!"
"You would become frustrated and sad after I left meaning you wouldn't be able to think properly and maybe get yourself killed" the girl said as she looked at Sally's face, still showing no expression.
"You mean…" Po paused, "This is all about you trying not to make me sad?" she asked.
"That is correct," Nobara coolly said as Sally sighed again.
"Rose, I'm just ticked off that you didn't tell me that you were being trained without me knowing…"Sally slowly shook her head as she lent on the table.
"Are you going to let me go though?" the small girl asked quickly, the older female just smiled.
"I really have no choice" the brunette chuckled slightly.
"What do you mean?" the strawberry blond haired girl asked as she tilted her head to the left slightly.
"Whatever I do, you're still going to leave, you know" Sally nodded. "But right now, we have to get you ready!"
"Great!" Rose suddenly smiled. "I'll need supplies because the trip to where I'm going, according to Doctor J that is" she took in a breath. "Is a day and a bit away, so, I should bring a few things with me, just in case" she nodded and stood up.
"Right, let's make a list first" Po suggested quickly. The brunette quickly jogged out of the room in search for a pen and paper.
"I'm going to need a code name…" Rose muttered slowly as she looked around the room and sighed slightly. A few minutes past, leaving the ten-year-old to think about a name she could use.
"Hey, what you thinking about?" Sally's voice asked as Nobara snapped out of the trance like state she had put herself into.
"Huh… oh… I'll tell you after the list is done so we don't have to worry about to many things at one time," Nobara calmly said as Sally just nodded and sat down, ready to write. "Ok, I'll need…" thus the list started.
Before the attack…
"J, who exactly is training this new child of yours?" a shadowed figure asked, they were on a rather large screen said slowly. They had mushroom like hair and a long nose.
"Well, because I would prefer she wasn't always going to depend on XXX-DA07 all the time" J's voice calmly said.
"So, you're planning to train both of them at the same time?" the figure asked quickly.
"Not exactly, G" the male with the claw for a hand said. "I think H said he would help me and make sure she has something to do on the weekends so my full attention would be on training this boy" J nodded slightly.
"I would also like to know where you found this child," G slowly said.
"I wonder… do you remember the Mitsukai's?" J asked quickly as G thought.
"I believe I do, why do you ask" the male on the screen said as he waited for an answer.
"That's their daughter, Nobara Kiyoi Mitsukai" he replied calmly, G just nodded. "Training a young mind is much more easier than training someone over twenty" J nodded slowly.
"I see…" G slowly replied, "I'll talk to you some other time, Duo is being an idiot again, G…" and with that, the screen went blank/black
"Doctor J…" a female voice said quickly, "Would you like me to go check up on this new child?" she asked.
"Yes, go find her…" he nodded, "Lisa" she smiled and nodded, turning around, she walking out of the dark room, her hair swishing side to side with each step.
Yes, H had something planned for me, it was more like torture when I started, but then I found out that I could use it for a cover… If you're wondering what's wrong with Lisa, she wanted to pilot XXX-DA07 since the designs were made. According to some people, the only reason she didn't get to pilot, is because she didn't have that 'spark' or 'energy' to protect anyone or anything. She just wanted to rule, and, if someone didn't follow her, she would destroy him or her with the Gundam…
"I think that's about it" Sally said quickly as she looked at the satchel she and Rose had packed with the stuff the girl wanted.
"Probably" Rose chuckled as she shook her head. "I'm afraid to see what the weight of this bag is" she sighed with a smile.
"Not to worry" the brunette said as she closed the bag up. "After you eat the majority of the food, it shouldn't be too bad" patting it, she stretched her arms into the air.
"Lets go outside Sally" Nobara suggested as she tugged on the older female's hand.
"Right, then you can tell me what you were thinking about before" Po said as the strawberry blond haired girl nodded.
"I need a code name" Rose quickly told Sally as they sat outside on the top step so they could see the sun starting to set.
"A code name?" Sally repeated as Rose nodded in reply. "What for?" she asked.
"Well, if someone knew my parents, they would probably know me, and, I don't want to be brought up by people I don't trust, you know" she shook her head slowly.
"I see…" Po started, "Then, you trust me, right?" she finished slowly.
"Sally, if I didn't trust you, I would have left a long time ago" the spiky haired girl chuckled slowly with a nod.
"Okay, so, what type of name?" the brunette questioned. "First, last or middle?"
"Last," Rose promptly replied. "I'm keeping my first name, Nobara, not having a middle, and only need a last" her head nodded again.
"Ok then…" Sally said slowly as she began to think. "It has to be something that won't give herself away" she thought to herself as she thought about names.
"I got it" Rose chuckled. "I'll be Nobara Shisou!" her voice sarcastically said with a chuckle.
"Wild Rose Look of Death?" Sally chuckled after words. "Sounds great" her head shook. "I was thinking more along the lines of Nobara Marisha-Ten…"
"Sounds interesting…" Nobara nodded slowly. "What does it mean though?"
"It means, Wild Rose Goddess of Light" Po calmly replied as she let the small girl think about it. Rose stood up and nodded, sticking out her hand to Sally.
"It's nice to meet you Sally Po, I'm Nobara Marisha-Ten" Nobara said as Sally shook the girls hand. "Shinimegami at your service" Sally stopped hearing the last Goddess.
"The Goddess of Death?" she said quickly. "Why would you call yourself that?"
"Because, it's better then being called a killer, a mass killer," the strawberry blond haired girl said slowly as she sat down again, but this time on the railing.
"So, you're nick name is going to be Shinimegami then," Sally nodded a bit. "I agree with you for not wanting to be called a mass murderer but," she stopped and thought about what she was going to say.
"It's a bit harsh, I know" Rose nodded and smiled slightly. "But, it's catchy," her voice chuckled a bit. "When they ask me 'Who are you?' I would reply, 'I'm Shini, Shinimegami' and then I would leave."
"Strange plan, but, it might work" Sally shook her head and chuckled a bit as she smiled. "It's getting late, we don't know when those people are going to be here to pick you up, so, you should get some sleep" Po said as she stood up and stretched.
"Right-o" Nobara said as she yawned slowly and stood up. "Oh yea, Doctor J said they would be here as two o'clock in the morning" she nodded. "So, have me up by one so I can have a shower please" Rose requested as Sally just nodded.
"Night kid" Po said as the small girl walked inside. Sally soon followed and went inside to where her room was. It wasn't very big or very pretty, but, it was her room and that's all what mattered. There was a single bed on the left side that was un-made. A desk with a rolling chair, on the desk was a computer and a headset attached to the computer. Another desk, larger than the other was against the right wall with a rather large white board on the wall above it. Notes were jotted down on the board in different colors. Papers were plainly just scattered about the whole room.
Sally dropped down onto the bed and grabbed an alarm clock that was lying on the ground under her bed. Slowly, she set it to twelve thirty and dropped it back in the floor. Closing her eyes, she sighed slowly.
"It's only nine thirty, I should get some work done but I'm just tired and because I have to be up early doesn't help" her thought slowly drifted through her mind as she drifted off to the world of dreams.
* BZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ * (OOC – just imagine it continues, that's what my alarm is like until I hit it ^^;;;) Sally's hand reached out to the floor as she picked the alarm up and hit it with her other hand so the alarm stopped. Slowly sitting up, she got out of bed and left her room. A few minutes later, she found herself in the cafeteria, getting two cups of coffee.
"Hey Sally" a voice from behind her said as she turned around. Rose stood there, her hair was wet and there was a bit of water dripping form her hair.
"Morning Nobara" Po nodded slowly as the girl took the second cup of coffee from her hand and smiled.
"Thanks and bye" she nodded and turned around and started to walk away.
"Bye?" the brunette muttered slowly as she jogged up to the girl. "What do you mean 'bye'?" she asked quickly.
"Sally, it's ten to two" Rose calmly said as she sipped the coffee. "I was wondering why you didn't come wake me up though, care to explain?"
"I set my alarm to twelve thirty, I have no idea why it only went off at one thirty!" Sally quickly explained and Rose shrugged.
"Right, now, where did you put my bag?" the ten-year-old asked quickly.
"Put it? We left it in the cafeteria, but, it wasn't there…" Po stopped. "Go grab your laptop and a bag!" she yelled as she ran back to the cafeteria. Rose in the same type of panic ran off to where she had put her bag. Sally was going through the fridge, taking out things that were small snacks that would easily go into a bag. Rose quickly returned with her laptop already in the bag, she then began to put the food in. She had grabbed some other things that she was stuffing in as well.
"That's enough!" Rose said quickly as she closed the bag up and Sally slammed the fridge shut.
"Let's go!" Sally quickly commanded as both females 'flew' down the corridors in a flash. Leaving the building, the two saw a black jeep already waiting outside for Rose.
"Ja ne" Rose quickly said as she bowed to Sally who nodded. After the small girl came up from the bow, Sally just hugged her.
"Be careful, Nobara Marisha-Ten, Shinimegami" Sally calmly said as she released the girl who nodded. Rose quickly dashed over to the car and got in, opening the window she waved. Sally automatically waved back.
"Bai Sally Po!" Nobara shouted quickly before the car disappeared from view.
Thus, I was off to train with Doctor J, and, the problem with Sally's alarm clock was figured out when I was fifteen. You'll find out later. I have a mission to attend to, there's a damn oz base I have to go destroy, cya!
Rose: And that's chapter two done folks!
