-Let the training begin-

 

“Today is the day we will be recruiting new soldiers,” Commander Rich said.

“We have sent a letter to various people, and they should be here at any moment. It is our duty to help them get through this training, because it is not easy. Not only that, but they are also new to this house, so will have them accoustum here. For all those soldiers who aren’t new, please don’t do comments on them, they are just beginners,” he continued. “Now, go back to your training maggots. We are waisting time standing here idle,” he finished with a smile.

-Earlier that day-

 

"Hey you freak! Come out here so we can beat you up!" "Don't be a coward! Come on out! Show us what you got!" As the teens jumped up and down in the alley,looking up at the orphanage wall,from a window around the third floor watched Maple,a worried look on his face. Those idiots had chased him all the way to the orphanage again. Now that they couldn't just run in,they yelled at him from the alley next door to tease him to come back out. Not like it would work. He wasn't that stupid. Or desperate. Maple simply waved lightly as he pulled on a string,the blinders falling down and covering the view of the window. He sighed as he felt his bandages,wincing at the touch lightly. They've bruised him up. Now he was going to get a non-stop lecture from Sister Ria and Sister Monica about respect and how good things come to those who wait. He blinked a few times as he noticed his books floating besides him. He quickly grabbed them from the air and settled them down on the desk. "I've gotta stop doing that."He complained to himself. This day just seemed that it was going to be a long one,as it had already started so roughly. "Maple! Come down here!" Maple winced at the call. "(I didn't do anything this time I swear!)"He thought as he walked down the spiral stairs all the way to the first floor. In the main hall the sisters were holding different documents as kids ran around playing and interacting. "Am I in trouble?"Maple muttered. Did he break something by accident again? "Maple,this came for you."Sister Monica said as she handed Maple an envelope. Maple blinked as he took it. "A letter?"He asked. "I've never received a letter before." Contemplating it he quickly opened it up,taking it out and starting to read. The two sisters went by his side as they saw Maple's expressions change while he read the letter. By the end of it he had a fearful expression as his knees started to shake. "Maple what's wrong?"Sister Monica asked. "...gh...x..."Maple muttered. Sister Monica blinked. "Speak louder boy!"She asked. Maple gulped. "I-I-I-I...I've been asked...ordered...to become an X-soldier..."Maple stammered. He glanced over to see the sisters' eyes widen as they took the letter in their hands and read it themselves. "It's true..." "I-It has to be a joke,right?!" "No,look at the seal!" Next thing he knows Sister Ria fainted out of shock. By the time the head priest got downstairs there was already a big commotion going on with the nuns trying to bring Ria back to conciousness and the kids all admiring Maple about becoming an X-Soldier,asking him to show them his tricks and powers. "Kids kids,let him be. May I speak to you,Maple?"The priest asked. Maple quickly nodded,hurrying up to him. "Let's take this to my office."The priest smiled as he and Maple walked up the stairs. "I-I can't be soldier! I've never won a single fight in my life,nor a weapon! You've taught me all of this of using peace and no violence,wouldn't I becoming a soldier mean the opposite?! Please sir you have to talk to them and convince them I don't-I can't go!"Maple talked so rapidly he almost tripped on his words. The priest rubbed Maple's head. "We've known of your abilities ever since you were born,Maple. You accidentally threw a cross across the hallway with your powers and made the nuns think your room was haunted."The priest laughed. Well that's one secret that wasn't kept well. "I'll explain to you so you can pack your bags ok?"He continued. Today did indeed,got longer.

 

-Current Time-

 

"Passengers we are arriving at our destination please put on your seat-belts,ready up your trays..." Maple nervously played with a napkin. Well,what was left of it,as he had dismembered it all along the flight. "You must join. Not only because it is an order. But for humanity." He shook at the words the priest had left him with. He already knew that the letter would've arrived today,and because of it he already had bought a ticket for the flight! He had planned it the moment he was asked for the documents,and didn't say a thing to poor Maple. "(He could've at least be kind enough to tell me about it.)"Maple thought. He was going to be an X-Soldier. Training. Defense. Fighting. It was like throwing most of his teachings down the drain and gaining new ones. Maple was a creature of habit. He didn't want new ones! He glanced out the window,gulping. "I want to be home."He muttered. He could only imagine how his new life would be like.

-Earlier that day-

 

Ruby hummed a song as she brushed her gorgeous red hair. It was easily the envy of all the girls at her private school. Among other things. She looked up at herself as she tried out different jewelry she had gotten the day before on a shopping trip. "Oh this one's pretty."She muttered as she moved onto the next one. "Oh I really like this one."She smiled as she got it around her neck. It looked absolutely stunning on her. "This will totally make everyone turn around and kiss my a-"Before Ruby could finish the sentence there was a knock on the door. "Ruby dear,you have a letter."Her mother called. Ruby stood up from her vanity and opened the door,taking the letter. "What's this? Another love letter?"She asked to herself as she turned around,walking back to her vanity as she opened the letter and started to read it. By the time she sat down her expression had changed. Her eyes were wide as she glanced down at the sender. "(Inochi...)"Ruby thought. They were a powerful and dangerous group. "Are you alright darling?"Her mother asked,not really hearing a word from Ruby as she read the letter. Ruby gripped the letter tightly in her hands,a smile surging upon her face. "(This is it! This is the chance I've been longing for!)"She thought. The chance of even more riches and fame,and most of all,control. And now she was asked to join the elite of such ideals that she adored so much. Ruby carefully turned around to face her mother,smiling. "I've been asked to attend a private school overseas in Korea! All expenses paid!"Ruby smiled,sounding as happy as she actually was. "They're picking me up today!" "Oh Ruby that's wonderful! You better get your bags packing now,you don't want to miss your flight!"Her mother smiled,happy of her daughter's accomplishments,oblivious to what she was actually sending off her daughter to.

 

-Current time-

 

Ruby sat while drinking some water out of her glass. She had packed up what she would need and said goodbye to her parents,the two too trustful for their own good she admitted. Though she would miss her spoiled life and endless shopping and hangout days,she couldn't help but to be curious of what her new life would be like. She would gain power?Control?Allies?Enemies? Who knew. Certainly not her. She acted accordingly and professionally on the outside,but on the inside she was excited like a kid on its birthday,anticipating the gifts. A young beautiful seductress on her way to become part of the organization known as Inochi. This could be book material for all she knew. "We will be arriving shortly,please adjust your seat-belts."The captain spoke. Ruby adjusted hers as she glanced out the window. "Maybe now I'll finally reach where I'm meant to be."

[AuraAce 1,126]

Minato looked at the letter in dismay and disbelief. "I just wanted to lead a normal life!" Minato shouted, he lay on his bed as his little sister came in. 

"M-Minato...?" His sister asked. Elizabeth was his little sister, she was only a year younger than Minato but looked up to him as an idol.

"Yes Elizabeth?" Minato replied, standing up to face her. Elizabeth's eyes started filling up with tears.

Elizabeth lunged at Minato and hugged him tightly "I-I don't want you to go!" Elizabeth screamed, not letting go of Minato, she was in a flood of tears. Minato just smiled and hugged her back. "It will be okay Elizabeth. I promise I will come back." He tried to comfort Elizabeth, wiping her tears away. Elizabeth let go of him, he packed a few things into his bag and picked up his lance, he bent down to head level with Elizabeth and put a hand on her shoulder. "Now you don't cry. Hold down the fort while i'm gone, okay?" He said with a smile. 

"I-I will!" She hugged him again. Minato stood up and went to the door to the house. 

"Goodbye everyone! I love you!" Minato shouted to his family who were scattered across his house. He turned to walk out the front door as a hand grabbed him softly. It was Elizabeth. She had something, it was her necklace? "Here. Have this! It's my necklace, it means you won't forget me, right?" Elizabeth asked. He went down to head level with her again "Of course I won't forget you." He rustled his hand in her hair, kissed her on the forehead and smiled. He walked out and shut the door and took one last look at the house and at Elizabeth's necklace, he put it on him. 

 

*An hour later*

 

"674 Koki Street. This seems to be the place." He looked up at the building and walked in, with many following behind him.

[Lady Aleister 1,677]

Arun Cadmium looked down at this letter she received today, her mother standing over her shoulder and reading it with her child. 

"I want to go." Arun said seriously, looking at her father.

"Arun, are you sure? What if you have an attack or something?" her dad asked.

"I will find someone that I can trust, and make them watch over me." Arun said simply, folding up the letter.

"The place isn't that far away, thanks to my illness we have to live in New York anyway." Arun said seriously.

Her mother walked in front of Arun, grabbing onto her daughters hands.

"Arun, if this is what you want, I will bring you." she said with a smile.

Arun smiled herself, walking off to her room and grabbing her white backpack. She put some clothes in the bag, some of her belongings, and a strap that looks like it goes around someones waist. The strap had little cases on it, and these cases held Arun's daggers and knives. She walked downstairs, ready to go.

 

​In about 45 minuets, Arun arrived at 674 Koki Street, she left her mother, and walked inside of the building. She was on her own now.

[echo 69]

Riley sat on the floor tuning her violin when her aunt knocked on the door. "Riley you have a letter!" She winced at her aunt's thoughts of her getting in trouble at school. She quickly snatched the letter then retreated back to the safety if her silent room. Ripping it open, she examined the seal on the front before reading the letter. She had heard of the terrorists known as the Inochi before but had always thought of them as attention seekers with no real goal. Riley read the letter and sneered, she did't believe the letter for a second until a single ticket ti Korea fell out of the envelope. "How annoying." She muttered to herself packing up her violin. She also grabbed a messenger bag to fill with other necessary supplies. She started out the door when, "Riley dear where are you going?" She sighed and looked down the hall. "I've been recruited by a terrorist organization to destroy humanity." She called back. "Oh that's nice dear have fun!" Riley rolled her eyes and left, typical aunt asking questions and not waiting for the answer. She made it to the airport and onto the plane. Her headphones were on full blast to tune out the non-stop thoughts of the crowded plane. She rushed off the plane as soon as it was possible then looked down at the address she scribbled down on a piece of paper. Looking around she realized she must not be too far away and started off down the busy foreign street. She reached the place and looked from the note to the paper, "Oh brilliant." She mumbled walking toward the building.

[Killua0707 194]

"Hey Loner!" Some girls said as they were following Hinata down the street. "Come over here, we want to show you something!"  

Hinata walked a little faster, but they ran up to her and grabbed her arm, and took away her art book.  "This is your doodle book right, Loner?  they said, laughing.

She took her art book away from them and walked away. "See you tomorrow, Loner!" they said, laughing again. "Whatever." she whispered.  

 

When she got home,she checked her mail and found a letter."Hmm... I'll open it later" she said.When she went inside, she saw her dad really excited about something."Dad, why are you so excited today?" she said. He looked at her. " The Medical Institution mailed you this." He have her the letter that was already opened by him. Hinata took the letter and read it. "... Dad, what is this?!"  The letter said she was accepted for a scholarship in the Institution.  "It's great news, right?"

"No... not at all."  she said. "I told you that I don't want to be a doctor!" she said, almost screaming.  He was about to slap her, but stopped.  She ran up to her room and locked herself in. She laid down on her bed, and remembered. "The other letter!"  she said to herself. She got up and opened the letter. She could not believe what she just read. "H-How is this possible?"  she said in amaze. She then looked at her the other letter her dad gave to her, and her mind was made up. She packed her stuff, and opened her box with the money she was saving up for Art School. She took it with her. She then opened her window, and jumped off. Hinata looked at her home, where she grew up for 15 years. "Mom, Dad, I'm sorry."  she said, and walked away. 

 

     - Couple hours later-

 

She looked at the letter's addressed. "674 Koki Street. Yup, It's here. She looked around and saw many coming here too. 

Hinata looked forward and started walking to the building. 

"I'm ready for this"  

[Stardustblade358 806]

Maple held onto his backpack (the only bag he brought) as the bus rode on a dirt road,having it get a big jumpy. He glanced around. The bus had been waiting for him and other recruits to take them to their destination. Maple was surprised. Not at the amount of people,but their age variations. The youngest he had seen was around 10 year old who was obviously upset of being sent away. He was with an escorting personal,but that didn't stopped him from transforming himself into a stone version,making him impossible to move by human hands. They needed to ask a crane operator and around a dozen adults to pick the kid up and get him in the bus. The oldest was easily a 50 something year old that didn't exactly seem like the fighting type. Heck. Half of them didn't seem like the fighting type. Including himself. "We've arrived at 674 Koki Street."The bus driver said. Everyone,including Maple turned to the windows. They were nearing a large building. It was huge. Dozens and dozens of people were in the parking lot heading inside,coming in by foot or by buses. Their bus parked in a random spot as the doors flew open. "Alright everyone,get off and head inside."The bus driver said. Everyone quickly picked up their stuff and started to head outside. Maple stepped out of the bus and glanced at the building once more. Many people were here and recruited...it was as if they waited for a specific time to recruit all of the X-Soldiers they could all at once. "So many..."Maple muttered. He wondered if it would be more of a fight for survival within other members who could also use powers. But with soldiers..."(Does this mean...we might die?)"Maple thought as he gulped. He looked around. It was cloudy,seemed about to rain. Within the gray he felt his brightly colored hair would stand out,which only made him feel a bit awkward. He walked up to the building,looking around and wondering where exactly was he soppouse to go within here? "Um..."He stammered as he glanced around at the different lines. He noticed the other soldiers,most likely veterans within the place,standing by and around. They seemed scary. Atleast to Maple. One of them seemed to glance straight at him,which only made Maple more nervous. "Ah..."Maple squeaked as the gravity field around him started to lessen out of his nerves,making him float a bit from the ground. "(I'm going to die!)"

Ruby stood in front of the building as she held her backpack by her hand. The car that brought her here drove off. "This is it?"Ruby muttered. She expected a grander invitation. But then again she wasn't at home. She was at foreign territory and at the base of the Inochi. She knew better than to just expect to be treated like a princess. She would have to earn her way to that. Ruby walked over inside when she noticed  a girl walking way on the other side,heading inside as well. Another Inochi recruit most likely? "(And it's a girl.)"Ruby couldn't help but to smile a bit. She very much preferred girls of company than boys. Mostly because she thought that they all stank of sweat and hormones. As she walked up to the entrance and opened the door she glanced over at the girl (Riley) once more. Ruby smirked slightly to herself as she opened the door for the girl. If she was going to become number one,she had to keep friends close and competition closer. "So you were asked to join too?"Ruby asked casually.

[Killua0707 194]

As she was walking towards the building, she realized that she could be who she usually is, a cat.  

Her cat ears popped up, and her tail appeared. "This is way better." she said.

As Hinata started walking again, she started thinking.

"What if the same thing happens just like at school? They might think I'm weird because I have different ideas. I don't really mind being alone but, I just want to start again and have some friends this time." her ears went down a bit. 

"No. What I'm I thinking? They are all different like me, that's what makes us special!"  

And because she was thinking all this time, Hinata ended up bumping into a wall. 

"Ow....!!" Hinata putted her hands on her forehead. "I'm so stupid!"  She then got up quickly, hoped no one saw that, looked around, and kept going in the right way this time. 

 

Hinata then realized something else. She stopped walking and was standing still. 

"Where I'm I supposed to go?!"  

[echo 69]

Riley looked over at the girl holding the door open. She didn't have her music on so she could here her thoughts loud and clear, not that she wanted to. "Asked? Is that what your calling it..." Riley looked the girl up and down once more before walking inside. She didn't want to be associated with anyone while she was here. Her hope was to be found to be of no use and sent back home, unless their way with dealing with the useless was death which wouldn't surprise her. Riley pulled her headphones over her ears to avoid any and all conversation. She sighed in relief as the familiar sound of classical instruments filled her ears. While she was part of a rock band, she had a strong taste for the classical, hence her skills in playing the violin. Thinking about it caused her to look at the case in her hand, hopefully whoever was in charge would let her keep it.

[AuraAce 1,126]

Minato was as confused as everyone else where to go. He was absolutely clueless. "There's lots of people here... Surely this is the place?.." Minato thought to himself looking around, not paying attention to what's in front of him, when he accidentally bumped into someone. An art book fell from a little girl with cat ears' hands. Minato had picked it up and was looking at the girl. He put down his lance and offered his hand to the girl to help her up "I'm terribly sorry, I didn't mean to bump into you."

Hinata fell again for a second time. "Arrrg!!! What did I bump into this time?!  She then looked up and saw a guy. He was offering his hand, and she saw that he had a lance with him. So she took his hand which helped her up.  "Um...thank you." said Hinata.  He then picked up her art book and gave it to her.  

"Oh! Thank you!"    She turned around and fixed herself quickly, and turned around again.  

"Um... I-I'm Hinata. Nice to meet you."

Minato helped Hinata up and picked up his lance. "I'm Minato, nice to meet you too Hinata." Minato said with a smile, he felt nostalgic. Hinata's tone of voice was like his sister's. "So are you here for the X-Soldier training too?" He asked Hinata as they walked around and tried to find everyone.

[Stardustblade358 806]

Some of the recruits pointed at Maple as a few of the kids laughed watching Maple hiding within his hoodie as he floated a few feet above the floor. One of the soldiers watched as a bead of sweat went down his forehead,walking over to Maple. "H-Hey,it's alright. Calm down,everyone here is in the same situation. Now,why won't you come down from there?"The soldier asked as Maple was floating way to high for the soldier to pull him down,seeing that Maple had pulled his legs up,his knees to his chest. Maple glanced down nervously at the soldier and the people who watched him float in the air. Maple looked back down and stretched his leg down,carefully floating back down as the soldier pulled on his leg,helping him down to the ground. "There we go,need to be careful floating around like that,you could hit a fan."The soldier laughed. Maple gulped and stammered. "S-S-Sorry,it happens when I'm nervous!"Maple said as a person casually passed by him and started to float. "Wha!"The person yelped. "C-Control it!"The soldier asked. Maple glanced back and within moments the person was returned to the floor gently. "Man."The soldier sighed as he walked away. "Sorry..."Maple muttered as he nervously stepped around in the spot. "(I shouldn't even be here. I'm not fit to be a soldier. I don't want to be a soldier. I don't want to kill people. I don't want to die.)"Maple thought as he couldn't help it as his heart seemed to ache. He missed the sisters. He missed home. He wanted to go back. Within minutes he started to cry,once again floating a foot above the ground.

 

---

 

Ruby felt a shiver go down her spine as her eye twitched. Not of fear. But of sudden anger and annoyance. "(H-H...How dare she?!)"Ruby thought as she angrily walked inside. She was too used to the praise and respect from the people that knew her at home. For a moment she breathed,just about to sing to make her listen to her and hypnotize her,but the girl had gotten her  headphones on. "(Grrr! She read my mind or something!)"Ruby thought. She then lowered her fists. If she were to use her powers here and right now against another recruit,she might get in trouble,and she wasn't into getting her dress dirty over a fight.

[Killua0707 194]

Minato helped Hinata up and picked up his lance. "I'm Minato, nice to meet you too Hinata." Minato said with a smile, he felt nostalgic. Hinata's tone of voice was like his sister's. "So are you here for the X-Soldier training too?" He asked Hinata as they walked around and tried to find everyone.

Hinata pointed at her cat ears, and moved her tail so that he could see.  "Does that answer your question? Of course I'm here for that. Why else would a girl who looks like a cat be here for? I might as well call this place my only home. I didn't have any friends at school because they thought my way of thinking was weird and different. But here, it's different. So I ran away so that I could come here. It's worth a shot right?." she said, and smiled. 

" Oh, um... do you know were we are supposed to go? Cause I don't." She started looking around.

Minato had completely forgotten that he had to go do to the training, Hinata already said she was here for that too. "Ehehe.. Not really.. We'd better look for it." Kyle said to Hinata, he was scratching his head and smiling nervously. He felt like this is not a girl he wanted to upset.

Arun was just looking around for someone to talk to, she didn't want to be alone. Especially if she had some attack. She saw another boy, a red head like her. Arun carefully approached him, but the thing was, he wasn't completely on the ground. He was floating, but the real thing that concerned Arun was that he was crying.  

"U-Um...excuse me...but why are you upset?" Arun asked Maple.

"U-Um...excuse me...but why are you upset?" Arun asked Maple. 

 

Maple glanced up. He carefully looked down to the side to see Arun. She had soft red hair like he did. Bandages covering ones of her eyes. "What happened to you?"Maple instantly asked. He then gasped at himself. If he was in front of the sisters he would've been smacked with a ruler for asking such question when he was asked first. He played with his fingers and looked back down at the girl. "I don't want to be here."Maple admitted. "I want to go home. I want to go back with the sisters and father Hime. Soldiers fight. I don't want to fight. I don't want to kill. I don't want to die."Maple said as he felt himself shaking and he contracted his body again,wrapping his arms around himself. "I don't want to be a soldier. I came all the way here because I was forced to. I was taught war was bad,and that's what soldiers take part off. I don't want to die or kill anyone,I'm already a freak as it is. I don't want to be a killer."Maple said as he ended up floating in a circular matter,like a small rock in gravity. By the time he faced the girl once more,this time he was floating upside down,his hair and clothing gently floating around with him. It was as if being in a small invisible room of anti-gravity. "Are you happy to be here?"Maple asked. He would've already made an attempt to return home if it wasn't for the sharpshooters on the roof.

"I understand you fully. However, I want to be here. I wanted to be free from my parents. They didn't want me to go anywhere, but I am right here right now." Arun said seriously.

"The thing is...I am scared too. I don't want to die. I have put up a fight to live my entire life. I am happy to be here, but at the same time, I am not." she admit. 

"My name is Arun by the way. A-R-U-N." she introduced.

"What is your name?" Arun asked. 

[Stardustblade358 806]

Maple glanced over at the girl,smiling at her kindness. He would accept the understanding of her wanting to be here for her own reasons. He wasn't going to be one to fight over it. "Arun..."Maple muttered as he counted the letters in the name out of habit. He glanced back up. His name. Ah he dreaded his name. Anyone who heard it ended up questioning it or laughing at the irony of it. But he couldn't come up with a name. Not this time. "May name..."Maple stammered. He groaned at himself as he pulled up his hoodie and glanced up at Arun from under it. "It's...It's Maple."Maple said as he quickly covered his face with his hoodie. He was ready for any laughs or comments. Even father Hime laughed when he found out how the sisters had ended up naming him. "I know,it's a weird name for a boy. Maple. It sounds like a character from an "Animal Crossing" name. The sisters said they named me after the color of my hair matching the color of the leaves of the maple tree outside the Orphanage. Jeez out of all the names they named me something as cute as Maple. It's embaressing."Maple muttered.

[Lady Aleister 1,677]

"Maple is a name that suits you. It isn't that bad." Arun said with a smile.

"At least you don't have a name that sounds like a guys name." she said seriously. 

It took Arun a while, but she realized that Maple had asked her about her eye. Arun's right hand moved to gently touch her bandages. 

"About this...I don't have an eye here." Arun said, barely smiling.

The door opened slowly.A huge man with a blue shirt, white pants, and brown boots came outside. He had a lot of pins on him, which should have been easy to know that he was the leader.

 

"Ah, you guys are here at once!" He said.

 

"Hello, hello, welcome to the X-Soldiers! We are proud of you, and your strong abilties too!" Now, everyone might have some question," Commander Rich said. "You may ask away before we go inside."

[Stardustblade358 806]

Maple seemed to smile at Arun's compliment about his name. He'd never had someone compliment his name outside the orphanage before. "But your name is so cool though! Arun means rust-colored and red. Just like your pretty hair!"Maple smiled. He was happy,he had met someone for the first time he could consider a possible friend,and that was nice to him even. Then he realized the eye question had made her kind of sad,he gasped to himself in horror. "OH NO I MADE YOU SAD I'M SORRY I SHOULDN'T HAVE ASKED."Maple squirmed as he was floating upside down and feeling guilty over the question. Just as he was about to speak again,the man in charge finally arrived,and asked if anyone had any questions. Maple fixed himself up so he was now floating correctly before gently landing down on the ground,back to normal gravity. "(A question hm?)"Maple asked. He had one,but it wasn't one that might receive a nice feedback if any feedback at all. Regardless,he went for it. Maple raised his hands. "I have a question!"Maple asked. He suddenly felt all eyes diverted to him,which made him jump a bit before gulping to himself. "W-Well...is it obligatory that we become soldiers here? I don't want to kill people,and my teachings have always told me that violence is never the answer! So maybe...I could...go...home..?"Maple asked as the eyes started to dart to him,some people laughing as others started to mutter stuff among the words 'is he stupid?'. Maple gripped his fists waiting for an answer.

"Well ask yourself this," Commander Rich said.

"Do you want more people to die under the Inochi. Or do you want to protect their lives."

 

"I know it's not easy being away from family, but it's not just because we went to keep you away from them, we just want you to protect those that need it," he continued. "Now, anyone else have anything to ask?" Commander Rich asked them while walking up to them.

"Well ask yourself this," Commander Rich said.

"Do you want more people to die under the Inochi. Or do you want to protect their lives."

 

"I know it's not easy being away from family, but it's not just because we went to keep you away from them, we just want you to protect those that need it," he continued. "Now, anyone else have anything to ask?" Commander Rich asked them while walking up to them.

Is the Inochi commander coming out or...?

[TheFirstCreation 23]

Is the Inochi commander coming out or...?

 

"Oh, looks like we have a friend," Commander Ryo said with a squeal.

He then walked outside, and walked strait toward the newcomer.

"Welcome, welcome, to our evil devilish place," Commander Ryo said.

"Now if you have questions, ask away, because you must know this place before you come in," Commander Ryo finished.
