Disclaimer: I do not own +Anima

Just a little info on Solina's name. 'Sol' is the Greek word for sun, which I included in her name because of her "flash ability," as Cooro puts it. Anyway, here's the third chapter.

"You're what?" said Nana.

"A few days ago, some man came into my cave. He said he was from the research facility," said Solina. "He asked me to come with him to Astar, saying that I was a unique +anima and he wanted me for research. When I refused, his men tried to attack me."

"Bad men," said Senri.

Solina gave him a weird look. "Anyway, I think they want me for my abilities."

"You mean, like the flash thing you can do?" asked Cooro.

"Yes, and there are other things, too. I can dematerialize in thin air, which would make me a useful assassin," Solina said with an air of disgust. "I can also turn invisible, which would help in some sort of stealthy attack. Third, I can levitate."

"What's levitating?" asked Cooro.

"It's being able to hover above the ground without anything helping you," said Husky. "Pretty much like flying without wings."

"Like this," said Solina. Then she began to hover a few inches above the ground. "It's not very useful when you can already fly, but it helps if you lose control in the air, or if you want to fly without attracting attention." She lowered down to the ground.

"Why would the researchers want you for that stuff?" asked Nana.

"They don't," said Solina. "There's one other thing I can do. I can remove the anima in a +anima by just thinking about it, and I can do three things with it. One, I can place it in another person. Two, I can absorb the anima into my soul and keep it stored away. Or three, I can release it. That's why the researchers want me."

"They want you to perform the surgery." Husky realized.

"Yes. When that man came to me, he told me that they need a safer way to perform the implantation and removal surgeries for +anima, and that they wanted me to perform them for the research facility. I didn't know I could do that myself until I did it accidently one time to this boy. I have no clue how they would know."

"Maybe Blanca could do it," said Cooro.

"Blanca?"

"She's the angel +anima that the research facility made," said Cooro. "Maybe she could do what you can do, and they assumed that you could do it too."

"Uh, Cooro, Blanca didn't have a will of her own," said Husky. "She's just a doll."

"Well, you never know," said Cooro.

"Hey Solina," said Nana. "Didn't you say that you can take an anima and get rid of it?"

"Yeah, I did," said Solina. "Why?"

"Come here," said Nana. She pulled Solina aside and started whispering furiously into her ear. Then they came back into the group. Solina crawled over to Senri.

"Senri," she said, "Is it true that you have a mad anima?"

"Amauri," he said. He looked down at his arm marked with his +anima markings.

"I can take it from you if you want. Do you want me to?"

Senri said nothing for a moment, and continued looking at his arm. Then he looked at Solina.

"Do it."
