Oh gosh. When was the last time I updated ;A; I ISH TERRIBLY SORRY ;-; I'm kinda busy on another chapter story of mine, and yeah, writing more than one chapter story at the same time is not a good idea QAQ WELL I WASN'T INTENTIONALLY GONNA MAKE IT A CHAPTER STORY...BUT IT WAS GOOD...AND I STARTED WRITING A PLOTLINE...
Fine, I go continue the story ;-; I'll give you a flash back just in case you forgot what happened in the previous chapter.
"Hm, can you give me more details about what EXACTLY happened? I'm your leader, I have the right to know what's happening to my members." Lindow spoke with mild interest. Soma noted that Lindow was starting to actually act like a responsible leader, or perhaps he was getting serious about being the 'Older Brother'.
Soma wasn't sure if he could reveal this information to Lindow, although he did have a point about him having the rights to know. Sakaki seemed pretty serious about this, and he acted like this incident was to be kept a secret.
"That rookie...Shiro, Shiro isn't a normal God Eater."
Shiro's POV
I rubbed my eyes sleepily. Man, it's really boring. Of course I like sleeping and resting and stuff, but being stuck here in the Sick Bay is seriously killing me.
I sat up and examined my leg. Oh, it's healed already. Well, that oh-so-smart Alisa 'accidentally' fired a bullet at me. Genius.
Reminds me, why do they keep on saying that I battled a Borg Camlan? Really, I don't remember a thing or two about that. My body DID ache a lot though.
I heard the door open. I thought Lindow had to leave? Maybe it's Sakuya...
"U-Uhm...how-how are you feeling?," asked my most beloved team mate, Alisa.
"Oh, I'm perfectly fine." I drawled, rolling my eyes. Why else would I be in the Sick Bay?
Alisa huffed and looked away, "And I was actually trying to be nice for once."
I smirked at her statement, "For once..."
This time, it was her turn to roll her eyes. "Your leg, how is it?"
I shrugged and stretched my leg, "It's healed. No big deal."
"Did it hurt?" She asked, looking slightly guilty.
"I just said it's heale-"
"...did it hurt?" She repeated. Okay, so she really wanted my answer.
"A little, I guess. Anyway, my leg's okay now. I can stand, see?" I tried standing up but ended up stumbling back on my bed. Awh, my legs feel numb.
"I'm really sorry." Alisa looked down. I guess she wasn't much a snob after all.
"Hey, it's not your fault. I just feel a little tired, that's why I can't stand. A little more rest would fix this..." I smiled awkwardly at her.
She seemed a little shocked when I told her that I was tired, but then she nodded in understanding. "You were great back there..."
"Huh?" I tilted my head, confused by her roller coaster attitude.
"Killing a Borg Camlan is quite a task." She smiled sheepishly then clasps her hands together, "When you regain your energy, will you go on another mission with me? Please? I just want to make up for what I did on our first mission together. I'm sorry, I shouldn't have acted like that..."
Alisa. Apologizing. To. Me. Am I dreaming?
"My fault. I was acting like a brat, too. I wanted our first mission to be nice, at least." I knitted my eyebrows and sighed.
"No, it's my fault." She insisted, frowning so deeply as if the sky had fallen down on top of her.
"We're not going to achieve anything by trying to find out whose fault it is." I stuck my tongue out. Maybe we can be friends.
Alisa chuckled at what I said, "So...we'll do another mission, okay? I-I'll ask the Leader to come too."
Aww, she's being friendly now. That's actually pretty cute. (Not to mention, she's bringing Lindow along. Lucky.)
Pfft, why am I speaking like an old man?
"Mhm. I can't wait to get out of this cursed room." I pumped my fist enthusiastically in the air, but really, I'm looking forward to this mission.
A week later...
"I'm finally...free..." I sighed dramatically as I close the door and walked back to MY real room.
Upon opening my door, cheers erupted all of a sudden. I saw Kota, Alisa, Lindow, Sakuya and Soma all gathered around. I felt a smile tugging at my lips, but then again...
"What are you guys doing in my room." I said in a deadpanned manner.
The cheers immediately died and all of them stared at me with crestfallen looks.
"HOW CAN YOU NOT APPRECIATE OUR WELCOME?! WE SPENT A LOT OF EFFORT-" Kota's rant was stopped when Alisa stuffed his mouth with an apple. Wow, where did she get that?
"Ah, but it's good that Tsu-tsu's okay now." And Alisa suddenly gives me a nickname. Wait, what the hell is 'Tsu-tsu'...oh right...my name's Shiro MiTSUki. Alrighty then.
"What's a 'tsu-tsu'?," asked Soma.
"I-I said S-Shiro!" Alisa retorted. Lindow snorted and started laughing. He patted me on the back and grinned.
"Welcome back, rookie." Why the sudden name-changing? I thought he called my by my first name? Besides, he said he wanted to be my big brother, so why not call me by my name?
Well, I AM a rookie...bah.
"Soooooo, when are we gonna do the next mission?" Kota asked. Sakuya flicked his forehead.
"Shiro just recovered, and you ask her about another mission?" Sakuya growled. Yep, that's our senior medic for ya'.
"N-no, I can do it. Really, I'm fine now. Besides, I promised Alisa." I scratched the back of my head and grinned slightly.
Alisa started fumbling, "My bad..."
Sakuya sighed, "Just don't push yourself too hard."
"You always say that..." I noted.
Sakuya crossed her arms, "It's because you never listen."
"If you guys are just gonna continue arguing, may I take my leave?" Soma asked, already heading towards the door.
"Ehh, Soma's such a kill-joy." Lindow teased. Soma gave him one of his infamous death glare.
"Hey rookie," Soma said. The heads turned to him.
"Uhh..." Kota shrugged awkwardly. Right, we have three rookies.
"I meant Shiro..." Soma practically did a facepalm right in front of us.
"Hm?" I hummed, staring intently.
"Try not to be reckless next time, okay?" With that, he left.
Normal POV
After 'that' incident with Shiro, Dr. Sakaki had started doing his research. According to Soma's report, Shiro wasn't an average God Eater. Dr. Sakaki had once payed a visit to a sleeping Shiro. He noticed that her wounds had healed fast, too. Of course, God Eaters heal faster than normal people, thanks to the Bias Factor. However, Shiro's healing process was a lot faster than the other God Eaters.
He'd also secretly taken blood tests from Shiro (he kept God Eaters' blood samples for usually for DNA test) and noticed her high God Arc compatibility rate.
"Just like Soma..."
He shook his head and sighed. Everyone knew that Soma was an exceptional God Eater, although only few had found out why. He was a test subject. The only test subject.
"Aisha sacrificed her life for you, Soma...but I guess it was worth it."
The thing that bothered him most was that the Director told him that Soma was the only test subject for the P73 Bias Factor, but how come Shiro had the same Bias Factor in her DNA? Could it be that Director Schicksal engaged a secret project of the same kind?
It could only mean one thing...
Shiro Mitsuki...is an X-test subject.
Boop beep bop boop. Shiro. Is. Also. A. Friggin. Test. Subject. Darn it, Director. Y U DO DIS? I TOT YOU SAID THERE WAS ONLY ONE TEST SUBJECT :U DIRECTOR...YOU LIAR Q^Q
Well, at least now we know why Shiro also felt the weird presence o3o
(Oh, so what happens next? Soma and Shiro are actually siblings? That's why the P73 Bias Factor worked well? OH HECK NAW oAo)
