Character Bonding Scenes

Chapter 2 - Erina

A/N: This Fanfiction will be based on the after-battle character cut-scenes of God Eater Resurrection. The character I will be using is named "Winter" (male). His appearance is not important so just imagine it as what you want him to look like.

Winter's POV

I have to admit that I was sceptical about Tsubaki Amamiya's decision to give Erina work experience as a support member for me in my solo mission but she did rather well in my opinion. She had successfully pointed out the number of Aragami as well as their sizes.

"Pretty good for a first try." I tell Erina through my radio as I walk through the Outer Ghetto to get back to the Den.

"Really? Thanks! I have to admit that I was really nervous." I hear the excitement in her voice.

"Well, it didn't sound like it when I was fighting. You were a big help." I say to her and I can hear her stumble for words.

"Anyway, I'll speak to you some other time. I'm just about to head into the Den." I tell her and I hear Tsubaki congratulate her on a job well done before turning off the radio. I walk into the Den and head straight to God Arc Storage Area 2 where I let Licca lock up my Arc before leaving to the upper levels of the Den to give Hibari my mission report.

Before I am able to speak to Hibari, I hear a girl's voice say,

"Hi! Do you wanna hang out for a bit?" I turn around from my position of leaning on Hibari's desk to see Erina standing behind me.

"Oh, Erina. Sure, I'll hang out with you."

"Cool because I need your help." She says before putting a hand to her chin. I ask her what she needs help with but she seems to be in a daze.

"Now where did it run off to?" She repeats several times whilst looking around before she focuses on me,

"Why aren't you looking?" She asks, slightly angry which confuses me to great lengths.

"You haven't told me what I am supposed to be looking for." I state and I hear Hibari snickering but I choose to ignore it.

"You're supposed to be helping me find my dad's notes. He left them around here and told me to find them. I want you to help me look for them. You know what they say, four eyes are better than two." She says with a smile on her face.

"I don't think I've ever heard that before..."

"Shut up and help me already." Erina interrupts me.

"Do you know the last place he had his notes?" I ask.

"No. All he said is that they'd be around here." She asks before moving towards the couches. I follow her, noticing that Karel was looking at her funny.

"What the hell are you doing squirt?" He asks.

"We're trying to find her father's notes. You haven't seen them around have you?" I ask as Erina forcefully removes Karel's feet away to check further under the couch.

"Hey, hey, hey! You could have just asked me to move!" Karel shouts in response. She sticks her head up and says,

"Would you have actually moved though?" before resuming her hunt.

"You ignorant little..."

"So have you seen them or not?" I interrupt him.

"Wha?" He looks at me funny before remembering our previous conversation, "No I haven't." He stands up and leaves us.

"You know, Erina, you should ask people to move instead of pushing them out of the way." I reprimand her as she checks the other couch.

"Yeah, yeah, I'll remember for next time." She brushes off my comment before moving towards a large wardrobe. She checks inside it whilst I look around it. Minutes later, she gives up on finding anything in the wardrobe.

"Hey, Winter." She says to grab my attention, "Lift me up so that I can check the top of the wardrobe." She says and I look towards the top of it. It looks to be too tall for me to look at the top of it and so I follow Erina's orders and lift her onto my shoulders.

"See them?" I ask.

"No, put me down now." She responds and I duck down so that she can jump off of my shoulders.

We continue to look around but we never seem to find them. Erina thanks me with,

"Thank you. I owe you one." before she runs out of the Den in hopes of finding her father.
