Idiotic Captains And Unfortunate Subordinates Who Have To Deal With Their Shit
-'-
It was a day like any other. How was I supposed to know that a little rabbit would follow us?
-'-
Damn be the day we landed on that planet and brought that kid along. The brat's mischief causes complaints to be given to me daily. Apparently it's because I "recruited" him.
-'-
The little rabbit fell asleep next to me. I pet his head; he looks almost innocent when he's asleep. He mumbled his goodnight. I think I misheard. He didn't call me dad.
-'-
The old man retired and the little rabbit has become captain of division. Well, I should've seen it coming. If it wasn't bad dealing with his recklessness before, now it'd be worse.
-'-
The sister of said (not so little anymore) rabbit has grown, and she punches hard.
I'm lucky to be alive.
-'-
Red rabbit made an alliance. Can't wait to see how long it lasts. I'm giving it a month. Tops. That boy won't stand so long without ripping his prey's throat.
-'-
The month passed. Red rabbit seems odd. He spends a lot of time with the Kiheitai leader. His mood swings have gotten less frequent. I guess the earth habits are rubbing off on him. Or maybe it's the food?
-'-
I passed by Shinsuke's room. Seems the guy was getting some fun, probably with that blonde chick that's always with him. Damn, she moans loudly.
-'-
I walk early in the morning by the corridors, a door opens and the red rabbit comes out, bed-hair still in place. Something is odd though. But I dismiss it and keep walking.
-'-
Two more weeks passed. And it hit me like a lightning bolt. The red rabbit was coming out of Shinsuke's room. How the fuck did I not notice that?
-'-
The alliance has ended. We bid our goodbyes. I can see the little rabbit's smile shakes slightly. I can't help but put my hand on his shoulder, giving him a knowing look. All he does is rest his forehead in my chest.
-'-
Red rabbit (my son) got his first heartbreak, he's sad. But all I can do is offer my shoulder to cry tears that aren't shed. I wonder when this brat became so important to me that I want to see his mischievous smile again.
-'-
Red rabbit has made peace with his little sister. His mood has improved.
-'-
Today we walked the streets on Earth. The brat has returned to his usual self. Back on the ship he mumbles his goodnights. I answer him back: "'Night, son". His ears get red. Mine too, but I just chuckle when I dodge his kick.
