"This is a new unique result."

Staring at the red mixed liquid, I twirled around a little in my hand.

"A mix of my blood...and father's. It doesn't do this with others."

Studying the regular red liquid and the reddish pink liquid, I sighed and put the two test tubes back in its holders.

Taking off my glasses, I began to think, 'Testing my blood with Mother's is 50% well rounded. Testing my blood with Father's is also 50%. But, my blood is...'

I stared back the reddish pink liquid and narrowed my eyes, "90.05%..."

No longer thinking of it, I took off my lab coat and placed the holder in a safe place.

All around me was a room filled with books and red liquids in large body test tubes and small samples of skin from abnormal beings.

Closing the door behind me while locking it, then walking upstairs, I lifted the hatch a little...checking for any signs of life.

There were none, so I slid out and closed the hatch that was camouflaged with the dirt ground.

'What is that I had to do again? Guren said something about postponing the meeting until Yuichiro was well.'

I widened my eyes, "That's today! And it's in eight minutes!" I panicked aloud.

I began to run at inhumane speed and headed for Second Shibuya without running into Horsemen.

~Small Time Skip~

Approaching the tall building, I entered and waited for the elevator to come down.

'Three more minutes and fifty-six seconds counting!' I thought as the elevator made a 'ding' sound.

As the elevator went up, I closed my eyes, thinking of what I was going to do and what to say.

'I understand that I'm under their suspension and that's normal. I don't need unnecessary arguments to happen. Hn, Yu's here, too...' I thought as I squinted my eyes open.

The elevator made another 'ding' noise and the doors slid open, I walked out and went down the right of the hallway.

'One minute left.' I thought as I approached the double doors.

I knocked on the right one twice, "Come in, Miss Kirio." A calm, yet unpredictable voice said.

(Shinya Hiragi.)

Doing as said, I put on a stoic expression and walked in, closing the door behind me.

Seeing Yu who glanced over his left shoulder to look at me, I walked forward towards the long rectangular table and stood beside him.

"I am here, like you asked of me, Lieutenant General Hiragi." I spoke to Kureto Hiragi.

"And right on time, monster."

I noticed Yu twitched at that and I closed my eyes to only reopen them again.

"You're right. I am a monster."

"You're acknowledging it? Quite something, Kirio," Guren questioned with a smirk.

I turned my attention to him, "I am acknowledging it. Like the rest of you, I have to do what I have to do in order to make sure everything is in order."

"You have a point there. If I may ask a question, Progenitor, are you saying you're helping us?" Major General Shinya Hiiragi asked with a mischievous closed eyed smile.

"Do not take this the wrong way, but no. I came here for one person and I don't intend on forcing him to leave with me. After all...it is his decision," I said the last part lowly.

"So, it's true what he said. You're associated with Yuichiro Hyakuya?" Lieutenant General Hiragi asked me.

"I am."

"She is," we both answered.

"Tell us, what are you trying to gain?" Guren asked with a smirk.

"She doesn't have to answer that," Yuichiro spoke with venom.

"Coexistence," I stated my reasoning.

They stared at me with either shock or hidden surprise.

"I am the daughter of a progenitor...well, not exactly. More like the niece and the rank passed on to me."

"Niece?" Lieutenant General Hiragi questioned.

"Yes, my uncle is the actual progenitor, but he's either missing or dead. My mother, his sister, became progenitor afterwards. She went by a human name. Do you know what that makes me?"

"...The queen's cousin," Major General Hiragi spoke, hardly surprised.

"That's correct."

"What do you have against her," Guren demanded from me.

"...Classified," was all I could say as I looked downwards, shadowing my face with my hair.

"Hm...is your father involved in any of this? I heard he's human," Lieutenant General Hiragi pushed further.

"Classified."

"Oh my, quite a secret keeper," Major General Hiragi commented.

"Bring them in," Lieutenant General Hiiragi told the guards.

'That first question...I do have something against her. The second, I don't even know. Fragments of my memories have-'

A loud bang made me come back to reality. Both me and Yuichiro turned to the right to see Yoishi and Kimizuki tied up with cloths around their mouths, both a bit injured.

"Better start talking," Major General Hiragi told me in a playful tone.

"What did the Third Progenitor of the Vampires do to you," Lieutenant General Hiragi demanded from me, I didn't respond, "Go on."

The two soldiers behind our two friends dislocated Yoichi and Kimizuki's shoulders, making them scream in pain.

"Stop this now! She doesn't have to answer that!" Yu defended me.

'Pain...something I've seen...so many times...my mother and father, Hyakuya Orphanage...Now in this very m-moment.'

"Have it your way, progenitor. Kill them," General Hiragi said and told the guards.

'...Dante.'

The somewhat demonic angel took over my body, but it remained normal, as the guns were pointed at Yoichi and Kimizuki's heads.

Yu attempted to pull out Asuramaru, but I...or Dante...walked passed him. Pushing my two friends out of the way, the guns were pointed towards me.

*Bang* *Bang*

My limp body fell backwards to the floor as Dante screamed in pain inside my body.

It slowly became cold and Yu's yells along with Yoichi and Kimizuki's panicking became muffled to my ears.

My vision became blurry once my body hit the floor and the gold in my eyes slowly turned into a pale hazel.

'...I can't easily die like this. Come on, get up. My friends need me.' I thought and I regained control of my body from Dante.

Seeing the blurry figure of Yu over me, checking for my pulse. Before he could get any sign of a beating, I sat right back up.

I stood on my own, facing the quiet table, "...They missed," I said and pulled a bullet out of my left eye with my left hand.

I spit out another bloodied bullet onto the floor that Dante caught with my teeth. I pulled out a handkerchief and held it to my damaged eye.

"I didn't know we humans responded with such brutal violence. Besides, I couldn't give that information to anyone...for now," I told them, feeling Dante want to take over again.

With that being said, I lifted my right hand into a blade and the ropes and cloths on Yoichi and Kimizuki fell to the floor.

I turned on my heels and walked to the doors...feeling someone special to me panic that was far away from me.

Stopping before I walked out, I glanced over my left shoulder with a 'one more thing' expression.

"I'm unsure if this will be useful, but...I know that my father was associated with Mahiru Hiragi."

Taking quick glances at each of their faces, I noticed Guren's seemed serious and Lieutenant General Hiragi glared at me. Major General Shinya seemed to be serious, yet puzzled at this.

I walked out, closed the door behind me, and stood there for a while before sighing.

"Mika..."
