Downtown Hong Kong*
The pilot was a young man. “I can’t believe this…” He said to himself. He erected the massive M6 off the ground. “Open Map!” He ordered. The digital map opened up. He was half a kilometer away from the battle. He picked up his shot cannon and made his way.
Hong Kong Skyline*
Five Venoms appeared in the Hong Kong skyline. Four were dark green and one was Crimson red. Yu Fan pulled back away from Bel’s M9. “Amalgram!” she said. “Well… If it isn’t the bad little girl!” The pilot from the Crimson AS said. “Gates!” Yu Fan shouted. “You’ve been a bad little girl… You should be punished, Maybe a good spanking is needed… or be put in jail for stealing *laughs* Anyway you and your sister are criminals! And you know the rules right? Go against us you die!” Gates narrated. “I… I will not tolerate this anymore! You killed my family and you have the nerve to call me a criminal!” She answered. “Awe… come on… Don’t be like that, I just want to kill you that’s all! Besides… We killed your sister already, so why wont you be a good girl and just DIE!” Gates yelled and began shooting. Yu Fan’s Venom used its Lambda driver to defend herself. She ran behind a building. She saw two M6’s fighting the RCRK92s. When the M6s saw the crimson venom in the air, they split and ran off. Yu Fan used her Lambda driver again to defend herself. She was already mentally drained. She jumped to the top of the building adjacent to them. She knew that she had to destroy Gates in one blow. She charged up her Lambda driver and prepared herself to attack. Suddenly a RK92 rams into her. “What the hell! I didn’t even spot that RK coming!” she said and everybody thought the same. Yu Fan drew her blade and fixed the sights on the RK. “Yu Fan! Get out of here now!” a familiar voice came out of the RK. “Big brother…” Yu Fan said softly. Bel, Melissa, Leon, Brandon, and Kalinin were in shock. Gates began to laugh maniacally. He jumped on top of the building across from Yu Fan. “Well, If it isn’t big brother David to the rescue!” Gates said in glee. “Shut up you brain damaged, bald, Cat loving, bastard!” David said. Gates turned red in anger. “Yu fan get out of here now! I’ll see you later!” Yu Fan nodded, turned and ran off. Ghost tried to jump and stop the fleeing venom, but was stopped due to a hydraulic failure. Yu fan activated her ECS and disappeared. URZ team wanted to go chase the venom, but they were preoccupied by the onslaught of RCRK92’s. “Hey come back here little girl!” Gates yelled and pursued Yu Fan. The RK92 crouched down and sprung forward to catch the Crimson Venom. It got hold of the waist of the AS and they plummet down about 20 stories down. Before they hit the ground David has activated the self-destruct button in attempt to destroy the Crimson venom. The RK92 exploded into a huge fireball near Bel‘s downed M9 and Melissa‘s M9. “DAVID!” Melissa shouted. Bel cringed in anger. Then they saw a figure moving in the fire. Their hopes were rising only to be smashed. It was the Crimson venom. From afar it looked like there was a person but it was actually the wreckage that the RK92 left. “Wow… looks like ‘Angel’ lost his touch… *Giggles* Maybe he turned crazy last minute you know… It does run in his Family! *Laughs* Well… At least I got to kill one of my problems.” Gates said to himself loudly. “URZ team FALL BACK!” Kalinin ordered. Then Gates noticed the downed M9. “Hmmm… I never meant to fight Mithril… Oh well your out of luck!” Melissa tried pulling Bel’s M9. “Melissa RUN!” Gate’s venom lunges and knocks Melissa’s M9 into a building. The Venom draws its blade then a shot was fired and hit the side of its head unit. “Who fired that shot! Urz 6?” Kalinin yelled. “Nope wasn’t me… I guess he has finally come to grace us with his presence…” Kurz said jokingly. “This is Urz 7 sorry for the delay… I am taking over…” Sousuke said. His Arbalest had its prongs out and a strong blue light shimmering. His Lambda driver was in full effect. “Urz 7 are you back in the saddle?” Kalinin asked. “Yes Major!” Sousuke replied. “it’s all yours Urz 7. The rest of Urz Team destroy the rest of the opponents, Leave the Venoms to Sousuke” Kalinin ordered. “Yes Sir!” the team replied. Sousuke jumped “Five unknown enemy targets and hundred eighty six, hundred eighty seven, Hundred eighty eight, unknown number of RK92s.” AI said. Sousuke fired one shot at the green Venoms. It tried to stop it with it’s Lambda driver but the shot went through and destroyed the Venom. “One!” Sousuke said. “GET THAT BASTARD!” Gates yelled. Two of the Venoms jumped and the Arx-7 jumped of the Building falling Upside down and it took a shot. “Two” said Sousuke, hitting a venom. Then Another Venom comes from Behind and tries to hit the Arbalest and the Arbalest shifts backwards and began to run. It ran down main street and Jumped on one of the signs. He landed on the Street sign and he jumped again without breaking it. The Venom attempted to jump it too but the sign broke. The arbalest turns and Shoots a round and destroys the AS. “three” AI said. “Don’t count before me!” Then the 4th green Venom jumps from a building and swings his Spear. It destroys the Arbalest’s Shotgun and jumps again. The arbalest fires its grappling hook and takes down the Venom and destroys it. “Four!” Both of them said in the same time. Gates was panicking. He lunged towards Bel and Melissa’s M9s. Gates slams Melissa’s M9 to the wall and takes Bel’s AS hostage. “Back off! Back off! Back Off! don’t Come any closer! Or else his going to get it! The Mithril Lambda Driver should be unstable! You SON OF A BITCH!!! WHO THE HELL ARE YOU!” Gates yelled. “Me? You want to know who I am? Mithril or not, I am a Student in Jendai High school 10th grade class four” Sousuke replied and he advanced forward. “Hey, hey, I got a hostage here” Gates said. “Student number forty one” Then the arbalest right fist started to glow “I am in charge of recycling.” “Are you listening?” Gates asked. The arbalest raised its right arms with its fist glowing blue. It Began to run forward “ I AM SOUSUKE SAGARA!!!” Sousuke screams. The arbalest throws a punch, but stopping in front of Bel’s M9. Then a gust comes by and a bright blue light surrounds Gate’s AS. In Gates last few moments he said “Eh… At least David’s Dead I can finally rest in peace…” and he disintegrates. Everyone was shocked in Sousuke’s Capability. “I do empower you to do your best Sergeant but you went a little bit overboard…” Bel said. “I’m sorry Lieutenant…” Sousuke replied. Then AI said “RK92s converging to our position!” Sousuke picked up Bel’s M9 and placed it on the roof of a building. “800 Rk92s! WERE THE HELL ARE THEY!” Kurz yelled. Brandon and Leon was spraying bullets in one direction but they aren’t hitting anything. “Damn it! My out of Ammo!” Leon yelled “Going blade!” And Leon began swing his Monomolecular blade. Brandon was suddenly hit and he figured out that there was an enemy in his 4’o clock. He swung the massive M6 and the M6’s hips opened up and it fired rockets. It knocked down a building. “Everyone fall back!” Kalinin said. Then they saw an M6 appear out of no where and it landed on the roof of the tallest building in the area. The hatch opened and the pilot jumped out with a Large case. He opened it, He stood back up with a Shoulder fired FIM-92 Stinger missile launcher. Everyone thought that the pilot was going to shoot down Pass-1, Kalinin’s helicopter. The pilot fires. It goes under Pass-1 and hits something. It was a UAV. “Sir! The RK92s count is decreasing!” Urz 3 said. The pilot runs back into the M6. It draws its Mono molecular blade. It jumps up and points the blade down to the ground. It falls and it lands on a Black RK92. Urz 4 runs and aims his weapon at The M6. The M6 Kneels down and the hatch opens. The pilot jumps out and raises his arms. He takes his Balaclava off. “David…” Melissa said. David looks up and sees two huge men and a silver haired man. David raises his middle finger at the man. Then David’s phone rings. He answers it while His one hand is up in the air with his middle finger out and the other is on his phone. “Hello!” David answered.
“Well, Well… If it isn’t angel…”
“Leonard…”
“Well David long time no see…”
“Well Mr. Silver, looks like I’m back…”
“Seems so… See you around Dave, Please take care of Miss Chidori and Tessa for me”
“Sure…”
Leon ends the call
Melissa’s M9 walks toward David.
“David Santiago, you are under arrest!” Melissa said
David got on his knees and he placed his hands on the back of his head
Arbalest walks closer to David. He knees down beside David’s M6 and he jumps out. David looked at Sousuke And Sousuke began to run.
“Where’s URZ 7 going?” Bel asked
“Where else…” Kurz answered
Merrida Island* (Two days later)
David was in a jail cell. He was placed in a jacket and was bolted to the wall. A dozen Guard were rotated every three hours. The Guards were armed with Assault rifles and covering every corner. Mithril Made sure that David would not go anywhere or do anything.
“This shits over kill…” David sighed
The door opened and the guards saluted. It was Tessa, in her class A uniform, Walking briskly with a folder in her arm. She walked in with Sergeant Sagara.
“Open the Cell Corporal”
“Yes Maam!” The corporal answered and opened the cell
“Captain Santiago!”
“Yes Ma’am?”
“You are to report to the meeting room in 0800 hours”
“Hmmm… How am I going to do that if im in chains?”
Tessa turned around and began walking. Sousuke was about to turn when David said
“So how’d it go?”
Sousuke kept quiet and looked at David
“Hmm… from the looks of it you didn’t get what you wanted? What happened?”
Sousuke just gave David a cold stare.
“C’mon you can tell me…”
“I offered them half my salary and threatened them with my resignation.”
“So what happened…”
“They said that I could go to hell and quit…”
“Ouch…”
“The worst part about it… Is that I can’t go back to Japan since I know the Mithril operations In Japan… If they catch me in Japan I will be killed.”
“I see…”
“I don’t know anymore…” Sousuke suddenly realized that he has said too much to David. He jolted backwards.
“How’d you do that?” Sousuke asked
“Well… I don’t really know” David said and Smiled
Jendai High School*
Kaname was sitting in class staring outside the window.
“Miss Chidori! What is so interesting outside?”
“Mithril”
“Mithril? Miss Chidori I suggest you get your act straight!”
The bell rings for dismissal and the teacher ran off.
“Kana? Where’s Sousuke, David, and Tessa?” Kyouko asked
“I don’t know…”
“Did something happen?”
“Nothing… I’m fine Kyouko…”
Sousuke’s room*
Sousuke was packing up his clothes. He didn’t know what to do anymore. He was sick of being treated like a dog, but if he leaves Mithril, he can lose his life, for the very reason that he wants to leave. He picks up his cell phone. He began dialing.
“Hello?” Someone answered in the other line
“Kaname?”
“Sousuke! It’s four in the morning! Why are you calling me… How come you’re not back here?”
“Kaname…”
“What’s wrong Sousuke?”
“I’m sorry…”
“Sorry for what?”
“Looks like I can’t be with you…”
“What?”
“It’s difficult to explain right now, but I will do all I can to fight this… Goodbye for now Kaname…”
Sousuke hangs up his phone and turns it off.
Mithril Meeting room*
It was this huge dark room with a little shining in the middle of the table. Around the table are Chairs with projectors in them. Each chair projected an important member of Mithril High command. There were thirteen chairs plus one more for Colonel Testarossa. David was brought in Handcuffs. Tessa was sitting down on her perspective chair.
“Commence meeting!” Tessa said
The projectors activated and it projected men and women in Mithril Uniform. Tessa stood up and Saluted and sat back down.
“Well, well, well… Captain Santiago so nice of you to come and visit…” One of the members said
“Well Colonel Strum… It’s nice to see you too, and to all of you it’s a pleasure seeing you all.” David replied
“David! You’re being charged of Murder of Captain Flores and the Whispered Aurora and Desertion… How do you plead…” One of the female members asked
“Plead… you know what’s my answer… All of you know that I didn‘t kill anybody! It was impossible for me to kill anybody! I was unarmed at that time! Check the tapes! Ask my Team! I did not murder anyone” David said
“None the less David… You ran and deserted Mithril!”
David screams in anger and then he sighs
“I don’t care anymore… Kill me please…” David said solemnly
“So do you plead guilty?”
“Yeah… just kill me… Might as well, I’m only a nuisance to Mithril and other Organizations…I’ve lost everything to Mithril… Might as well give my life to the Organization…” David said
“David…” Tessa said
“But hear this… Remember the opposition that I have fought… Remember what I had to leave to do the right thing… Remember what I did for this ORGANIZATION! I have sacrificed so many things and lost my love ones… For what! To please you war hungry greedy Bastards! Only a few of you here I know that are innocent, Some I even have the utmost respect for. I do not scorn at them, I scorn at the People who are Hypocrites! People in this room lie and cheat to make a quick buck! And now since I know the truth you want to get rid of me!”
“That’s Enough Captain! You’re ranting and raving like a mad man… We’re asking you if you did it or not and you say that people in this table are corrupt! What’s wrong with you!” One of the members Shouted
David’s pupils dilated.
“I’m sorry… Just kill me now…”
“Okay… Those who vote for the execution of Captain David Santiago say aye”
“Aye!” Six people said
“And those who oppose say Nay”
“Nay” Six people said
“General Ramirez… Sir Mallory is not in to vote! We have to postpone this meeting and wait for Sir Mallory”
The door slides open
“No need…” Someone said
Tessa and David look back and they see an Old Man with a Monocle. David stands erect and salutes. Tessa notices that David got out of his handcuffs.
“As you were captain” The man said
“Thank you sir!” David responded and put his hand down
“Sir Mallory! So nice of you to join us…” Colonel Strum said
“Yes… anyway I call this meeting to adjourn… I vote David to be kept alive…”
“Sir!” One of the members yelled out in protest “He is a criminal!”
“You’re forgetting your place Admiral… Besides, The charges were already dropped… I ordered it to be dropped four days ago… David Santiago is no more a criminal… This Case is dismissed…”
Six of the members that voted aye disconnected themselves from the meeting. The rest smiled at David and disconnected themselves too.
“Colonel Testarossa… It is an honor to meet you…” Sir Mallory said
Tessa stood up and shook Mallory’s hand.
“Like wise sir…”
“Well Colonel… May you please step out for a few minutes… I need to speak with Captain Santiago”
“Yes sir”
Tessa stood up and went out the door.
“So David how are you?”
“I am fine sir!”
“Are you sure?”
“Yes Sir!”
“David… I need a favor…”
“Yes Sir! Anything!”
“I need you to restart and Command SOULS…”
“Sir… I can~”
“Don’t worry David… It would not be in the same circumstances…”
“I don’t know Sir…”
“Well David, I thought you said you’d do anything?”
“I would Sir… But I cannot face my Team again… I have Disgraced SOULS… I don’t fit to be the Commander of the Unit…”
“Disgrace? Weren’t you the one that once said ‘Working for Mithril is not a beauty contest…’ “
“Yes Sir but,”
“But nothing Captain… I need you back… I am willing to do anything just to restart SOULS…”
“Sir…”
“David… Have you heard about the Hijacking of the 747 that landed in Korea, Or the Hijacking of the TDD-1, or the Information leaks in China?”
“Yes sir…”
“Well all of those incidents happened because there were defects in Mithril David…”
“What do you want me to do sir?”
“I want you to weed out the enemies…”
“Sir… My Specialty is Special Operations Warfare… Not Internal Affairs…”
“Well David, that’s the whole point… I want you to lead, to cover up.”
“Cover up Sir?”
“Yes, people would think that SOULS is another branch of the Mithril Service, But in reality… I want you to Clean Mithril… Like the Military Police, We are not like before Captain, Some of us do not believe in Justice anymore…”
“I see sir…”
“So David what do you say?”
David kept silent for a few seconds
“Yes… Yes Sir! But! Only if you follow my conditions Sir…”
“Of Course…”
Tokyo Japan* (Two Days Later)
It was a Saturday. Kaname decided to sleep in her living room. She was wearing her Pajamas. She was woken up by a knock on her door. She stood up and peeked through the peep hole. It was Sousuke. She opened the door as fast as she could.
“Sousuke!” Kaname shrieked and jumped on Sousuke
“Come in!”
“Umm… Kaname can you get of please…”
Sousuke put Kaname down slowly. As Kaname was turning her shirt got caught in the door lock. When she began walking her Pajama shirt literally was torn off. Her breast popped out and Sousuke’s eyes grew wider.
“Pervert!” Kaname covered herself and punched Sousuke in the face. Sousuke flew a few feet backwards. Kaname slams the door on him.
(Five Hours Later)
Kaname walks outside with trash bags in her hands. She notices Sousuke was still there.
“Hey Idiot! Get up”
There was no response.
“Hey! Sousuke?”
Kaname came closer to Sousuke. Sousuke was knocked out.
“Oh God…”
Kaname left the trash in front of her door and she tried to pickup Sousuke, but instead she decided to put his arm around her neck and dragged him inside. She rested him on her couch. Sousuke began to gain consciousness.
“What happened?” Sousuke asked
“Oh your eyes strayed off and you fell…”
“Oh I see…”
“So Sousuke, what did they say?”
“…”
“Sousuke…”
“I’m getting reassigned to the Middle east… I asked them if I could stay here for today…”
“I see… Couldn’t you fight their decision?”
“No… I argued with them, they said no, I threatened them with my Resignation they said ‘Gladly’ and told me that If I go here to Japan… I am ordered to be killed on spot…”
“I see…”
“I’m here to say goodbye Kaname…”
“Okay…” Kaname sat closer to Sousuke and put his hands around Sousuke
“Kaname…”
Kaname began to cry.
“I was so scared… You left me… Now you’re leaving me! Idiot!”
Sousuke tried to place his arms around Kaname, but a large bang was heard
“Hey! Chidori! Get your Trash out of the Hallway now!” One of Kaname’s neighbors yelled
Kaname wiped away her tears and stood up
“I’ll help you take the trash out Kaname….” Sousuke said
They took the trash down to the dumpster.
“Yeah… I’m going to miss recycling in Jendai…” Sousuke said
“…”
“Say Kaname… would you like to go to dinner with me? I’m starving”
Kaname checks her watch. It was 7:30 already.
“Oh… I forgot to cook dinner…”
“Yeah… Let’s just go to a restaurant my treat…”
Kaname and Sousuke walked to the nearest business district and ate a pretty classy restaurant. Kaname couldn’t believe how the night was going so normal. It was like a dream. When they were done eating dinner. They walked home.
“I’m going to miss you Sousuke…”
“…”
“Sousuke I want to tell you something”
“…”
“I… I… Never mind”
“…”
She couldn’t say it. She knew that it would be harder for Sousuke to leave if she admitted her feelings towards Sousuke.
“Sousuke?”
“…”
“Sousuke”
“…”
“IDIOT!!! I’M TALKING TO YOU!”
“… Kaname keep quiet… Something’s not right here…”
“Yeah there isn’t” Someone said behind Sousuke
Sousuke drew his Handgun. He extended his arm. The Mysterious man placed his right hand over Sousuke’s wrist. The Man pulled his arm towards him and launched a left hand chop towards Sousuke’s chest, which knocked him down. The man got the handgun. He dropped the Magazine and cocked the gun. Then he threw it away. Kaname got a glance at the man. It was David.
“David!”
“Sousuke! What are you doing here! You can get killed!” David said
“…” Sousuke remained quiet
“Anyway” David said. He was wearing a backpack. He reached inside and took out a folder. Sousuke stood up.
“Here… Here’s you’re resignation papers…”
“But, I didn’t resign though…”
“Also, your reinstating papers. You no longer fight for Mithril… Now you fight for Mithril… *Chuckles*”
Kaname’s eye brow raised and thought “wait… isn’t that a contradiction”
Sousuke looked through the file and his eyes grew wider and he smiled. Sousuke looked at David. Sousuke stood in attention and saluted.
“Sir!”
David turned red and punched Sousuke in the chest.
“Never ever salute me in public!”
“I’m Sorry sir!”
“Sir?” Kaname asked
“Don’t call me Sir neither While I’m not in uniform”
“Yes Sir! I mean Sir! I mean David”
“Why is he calling you Sir, David?” Kaname asked David
“Well, because I gave him what he wanted… In return… He is going to work for me” David answered
“Welcome Sousuke” David said and offered his hand
“Thank you…” Sousuke Answered and shook David’s hand

Downtown Hong Kong*
The pilot was a young man. “I can’t believe this…” He said to himself. He erected the massive M6 off the ground. “Open Map!” He ordered. The digital map opened up. He was half a kilometer away from the battle. He picked up his shot cannon and made his way.
Hong Kong Skyline*
Five Venoms appeared in the Hong Kong skyline. Four were dark green and one was Crimson red. Yu Fan pulled back away from Bel’s M9. “Amalgram!” she said. “Well… If it isn’t the bad little girl!” The pilot from the Crimson AS said. “Gates!” Yu Fan shouted. “You’ve been a bad little girl… You should be punished, Maybe a good spanking is needed… or be put in jail for stealing *laughs* Anyway you and your sister are criminals! And you know the rules right? Go against us you die!” Gates narrated. “I… I will not tolerate this anymore! You killed my family and you have the nerve to call me a criminal!” She answered. “Awe… come on… Don’t be like that, I just want to kill you that’s all! Besides… We killed your sister already, so why wont you be a good girl and just DIE!” Gates yelled and began shooting. Yu Fan’s Venom used its Lambda driver to defend herself. She ran behind a building. She saw two M6’s fighting the RCRK92s. When the M6s saw the crimson venom in the air, they split and ran off. Yu Fan used her Lambda driver again to defend herself.

Yu Fan drew her blade and fixed the sights on the RK. “Yu Fan! Get out of here now!” a familiar voice came out of the RK. “Big brother…” Yu Fan said softly. Bel, Melissa, Leon, Brandon, and Kalinin were in shock. Gates began to laugh maniacally. He jumped on top of the building across from Yu Fan. “Well, If it isn’t big brother David to the rescue!” Gates said in glee. “Shut up you brain damaged, bald, Cat loving, bastard!” David said. Gates turned red in anger. “Yu fan get out of here now! I’ll see you later!” Yu Fan nodded, turned and ran off. Ghost tried to jump and stop the fleeing venom, but was stopped due to a hydraulic failure. Yu fan activated her ECS and disappeared. URZ team wanted to go chase the venom, but they were preoccupied by the onslaught of RCRK92’s. “Hey come back here little girl!” Gates yelled and pursued Yu Fan. The RK92 crouched down and sprung forward to catch the Crimson Venom. It got hold of the waist of the AS and they plummet down about 20 stories down. Before they hit the ground David has activated the self-destruct button in attempt to destroy the Crimson venom. The RK92 exploded into a huge fireball near Bel‘s downed M9 and Melissa‘s M9. “DAVID!” Melissa shouted. Bel cringed in anger. Then they saw a figure moving in the fire. Their hopes were rising only to be smashed. It was the Crimson venom. From afar it looked like there was a person but it was actually the wreckage that the RK92 left. “Wow… looks like ‘Angel’ lost his touch… *Giggles* Maybe he turned crazy last minute you know… It does run in his Family! *Laughs* Well… At least I got to kill one of my problems.” Gates said to himself loudly. “URZ team FALL BACK!” Kalinin ordered. Then Gates noticed the downed M9. “Hmmm… I never meant to fight Mithril… Oh well your out of luck!” Melissa tried pulling Bel’s M9. “Melissa RUN!” Gate’s venom lunges and knocks Melissa’s M9 into a building. The Venom draws its blade then a shot was fired and hit the side of its head unit. “Who fired that shot! Urz 6?” Kalinin yelled. “Nope wasn’t me… I guess he has finally come to grace us with his presence…” Kurz said jokingly. “This is Urz 7 sorry for the delay… I am taking over…” Sousuke said. His Arbalest had its prongs out and a strong blue light shimmering. His Lambda driver was in full effect. “Urz 7 are you back in the saddle?” Kalinin asked. “Yes Major!” Sousuke replied. “it’s all yours Urz 7. The rest of Urz Team destroy the rest of the opponents, Leave the Venoms to Sousuke” Kalinin ordered. “Yes Sir!” the team replied. Sousuke jumped “Five unknown enemy targets and hundred eighty six, hundred eighty seven, Hundred eighty eight, unknown number of RK92s.” AI said. Sousuke fired one shot at the green Venoms.

“Where’s URZ 7 going?” Bel asked
“Where else…” Kurz answered
Merrida Island* (Two days later)
David was in a jail cell. He was placed in a jacket and was bolted to the wall. A dozen Guard were rotated every three hours. The Guards were armed with Assault rifles and covering every corner. Mithril Made sure that David would not go anywhere or do anything.
“This shits over kill…” David sighed
The door opened and the guards saluted. It was Tessa, in her class A uniform, Walking briskly with a folder in her arm. She walked in with Sergeant Sagara.
“Open the Cell Corporal”
“Yes Maam!” The corporal answered and opened the cell
“Captain Santiago!”
“Yes Ma’am?”
“You are to report to the meeting room in 0800 hours”
“Hmmm… How am I going to do that if im in chains?”
Tessa turned around and began walking. Sousuke was about to turn when David said
“So how’d it go?”
Sousuke kept quiet and looked at David
“Hmm… from the looks of it you didn’t get what you wanted? What happened?”
Sousuke just gave David a cold stare.
“C’mon you can tell me…”
“I offered them half my salary and threatened them with my resignation.”
“So what happened…”
“They said that I could go to hell and quit…”
“Ouch…”
“The worst part about it… Is that I can’t go back to Japan since I know the Mithril operations In Japan… If they catch me in Japan I will be killed.”
“I see…”
“I don’t know anymore…” Sousuke suddenly realized that he has said too much to David. He jolted backwards.
“How’d you do that?” Sousuke asked
“Well… I don’t really know” David said and Smiled
Jendai High School*
Kaname was sitting in class staring outside the window.
“Miss Chidori! What is so interesting outside?”
“Mithril”
“Mithril? Miss Chidori I suggest you get your act straight!”
The bell rings for dismissal and the teacher ran off.
“Kana? Where’s Sousuke, David, and Tessa?” Kyouko asked
“I don’t know…”
“Did something happen?”
“Nothing… I’m fine Kyouko…”
Sousuke’s room*
Sousuke was packing up his clothes. He didn’t know what to do anymore. He was sick of being treated like a dog, but if he leaves Mithril, he can lose his life, for the very reason that he wants to leave. He picks up his cell phone. He began dialing.
“Hello?” Someone answered in the other line
“Kaname?”
“Sousuke! It’s four in the morning! Why are you calling me… How come you’re not back here?”
“Kaname…”
“What’s wrong Sousuke?”
“I’m sorry…”
“Sorry for what?”
“Looks like I can’t be with you…”
“What?”
“It’s difficult to explain right now, but I will do all I can to fight this… Goodbye for now Kaname…”
Sousuke hangs up his phone and turns it off.
Mithril Meeting room*
It was this huge dark room with a little shining in the middle of the table. Around the table are Chairs with projectors in them. Each chair projected an important member of Mithril High command. There were thirteen chairs plus one more for Colonel Testarossa. David was brought in Handcuffs. Tessa was sitting down on her perspective chair.
“Commence meeting!” Tessa said
The projectors activated and it projected men and women in Mithril Uniform. Tessa stood up and Saluted and sat back down.
“Well, well, well… Captain Santiago so nice of you to come and visit…” One of the members said
“Well Colonel Strum… It’s nice to see you too, and to all of you it’s a pleasure seeing you all.” David replied
“David! You’re being charged of Murder of Captain Flores and the Whispered Aurora and Desertion… How do you plead…” One of the female members asked
“Plead… you know what’s my answer… All of you know that I didn‘t kill anybody! It was impossible for me to kill anybody! I was unarmed at that time! Check the tapes! Ask my Team! I did not murder anyone” David said
“None the less David… You ran and deserted Mithril!”
David screams in anger and then he sighs
“I don’t care anymore… Kill me please…” David said solemnly
“So do you plead guilty?”
“Yeah… just kill me… Might as well, I’m only a nuisance to Mithril and other Organizations…I’ve lost everything to Mithril… Might as well give my life to the Organization…” David said
“David…” Tessa said
“But hear this… Remember the opposition that I have fought… Remember what I had to leave to do the right thing… Remember what I did for this ORGANIZATION! I have sacrificed so many things and lost my love ones… For what! To please you war hungry greedy Bastards! Only a few of you here I know that are innocent, Some I even have the utmost respect for. I do not scorn at them, I scorn at the People who are Hypocrites! People in this room lie and cheat to make a quick buck! And now since I know the truth you want to get rid of me!”
“That’s Enough Captain! You’re ranting and raving like a mad man… We’re asking you if you did it or not and you say that people in this table are corrupt! What’s wrong with you!” One of the members Shouted
David’s pupils dilated.
“I’m sorry… Just kill me now…”
“Okay… Those who vote for the execution of Captain David Santiago say aye”
“Aye!” Six people said
“And those who oppose say Nay”
“Nay” Six people said
“General Ramirez… Sir Mallory is not in to vote! We have to postpone this meeting and wait for Sir Mallory”
The door slides open
“No need…” Someone said
Tessa and David look back and they see an Old Man with a Monocle. David stands erect and salutes. Tessa notices that David got out of his handcuffs.
“As you were captain” The man said
“Thank you sir!” David responded and put his hand down
“Sir Mallory! So nice of you to join us…” Colonel Strum said
“Yes… anyway I call this meeting to adjourn… I vote David to be kept alive…”
“Sir!” One of the members yelled out in protest “He is a criminal!”
“You’re forgetting your place Admiral… Besides, The charges were already dropped… I ordered it to be dropped four days ago… David Santiago is no more a criminal… This Case is dismissed…”
Six of the members that voted aye disconnected themselves from the meeting. The rest smiled at David and disconnected themselves too.
“Colonel Testarossa… It is an honor to meet you…” Sir Mallory said
Tessa stood up and shook Mallory’s hand.
“Like wise sir…”
“Well Colonel… May you please step out for a few minutes… I need to speak with Captain Santiago”
“Yes sir”
Tessa stood up and went out the door.
“So David how are you?”
“I am fine sir!”
“Are you sure?”
“Yes Sir!”
“David… I need a favor…”
“Yes Sir! Anything!”
“I need you to restart and Command SOULS…”
“Sir… I can~”
“Don’t worry David… It would not be in the same circumstances…”
“I don’t know Sir…”
“Well David, I thought you said you’d do anything?”
“I would Sir… But I cannot face my Team again… I have Disgraced SOULS… I don’t fit to be the Commander of the Unit…”
“Disgrace? Weren’t you the one that once said ‘Working for Mithril is not a beauty contest…’ “
“Yes Sir but,”
“But nothing Captain… I need you back… I am willing to do anything just to restart SOULS…”
“Sir…”
“David… Have you heard about the Hijacking of the 747 that landed in Korea, Or the Hijacking of the TDD-1, or the Information leaks in China?”
“Yes sir…”
“Well all of those incidents happened because there were defects in Mithril David…”
“What do you want me to do sir?”
“I want you to weed out the enemies…”
“Sir… My Specialty is Special Operations Warfare… Not Internal Affairs…”
“Well David, that’s the whole point… I want you to lead, to cover up.”
“Cover up Sir?”
“Yes, people would think that SOULS is another branch of the Mithril Service, But in reality… I want you to Clean Mithril… Like the Military Police, We are not like before Captain, Some of us do not believe in Justice anymore…”
“I see sir…”
“So David what do you say?”
David kept silent for a few seconds
“Yes… Yes Sir! But! Only if you follow my conditions Sir…”
“Of Course…”
Tokyo Japan* (Two Days Later)
It was a Saturday. Kaname decided to sleep in her living room. She was wearing her Pajamas. She was woken up by a knock on her door. She stood up and peeked through the peep hole. It was Sousuke. She opened the door as fast as she could.
“Sousuke!” Kaname shrieked and jumped on Sousuke
“Come in!”
“Umm… Kaname can you get of please…”
Sousuke put Kaname down slowly. As Kaname was turning her shirt got caught in the door lock. When she began walking her Pajama shirt literally was torn off. Her breast popped out and Sousuke’s eyes grew wider.
“Pervert!” Kaname covered herself and punched Sousuke in the face. Sousuke flew a few feet backwards. Kaname slams the door on him.
(Five Hours Later)
Kaname walks outside with trash bags in her hands. She notices Sousuke was still there.
“Hey Idiot! Get up”
There was no response.
“Hey! Sousuke?”
Kaname came closer to Sousuke. Sousuke was knocked out.
“Oh God…”
Kaname left the trash in front of her door and she tried to pickup Sousuke, but instead she decided to put his arm around her neck and dragged him inside. She rested him on her couch. Sousuke began to gain consciousness.
“What happened?” Sousuke asked
“Oh your eyes strayed off and you fell…”
“Oh I see…”
“So Sousuke, what did they say?”
“…”
“Sousuke…”
“I’m getting reassigned to the Middle east… I asked them if I could stay here for today…”
“I see… Couldn’t you fight their decision?”
“No… I argued with them, they said no, I threatened them with my Resignation they said ‘Gladly’ and told me that If I go here to Japan… I am ordered to be killed on spot…”
“I see…”
“I’m here to say goodbye Kaname…”
“Okay…” Kaname sat closer to Sousuke and put his hands around Sousuke
“Kaname…”
Kaname began to cry.
“I was so scared… You left me… Now you’re leaving me! Idiot!”
Sousuke tried to place his arms around Kaname, but a large bang was heard
“Hey! Chidori! Get your Trash out of the Hallway now!” One of Kaname’s neighbors yelled
Kaname wiped away her tears and stood up
“I’ll help you take the trash out Kaname….” Sousuke said
They took the trash down to the dumpster.
“Yeah… I’m going to miss recycling in Jendai…” Sousuke said
“…”
“Say Kaname… would you like to go to dinner with me? I’m starving”
Kaname checks her watch. It was 7:30 already.
“Oh… I forgot to cook dinner…”
“Yeah… Let’s just go to a restaurant my treat…”
Kaname and Sousuke walked to the nearest business district and ate a pretty classy restaurant. Kaname couldn’t believe how the night was going so normal. It was like a dream. When they were done eating dinner. They walked home.
“I’m going to miss you Sousuke…”
“…”
“Sousuke I want to tell you something”
“…”
“I… I… Never mind”
“…”
She couldn’t say it. She knew that it would be harder for Sousuke to leave if she admitted her feelings towards Sousuke.
“Sousuke?”
“…”
“Sousuke”
“…”
“IDIOT!!! I’M TALKING TO YOU!”
“… Kaname keep quiet… Something’s not right here…”
“Yeah there isn’t” Someone said behind Sousuke
Sousuke drew his Handgun. He extended his arm. The Mysterious man placed his right hand over Sousuke’s wrist. The Man pulled his arm towards him and launched a left hand chop towards Sousuke’s chest, which knocked him down. The man got the handgun. He dropped the Magazine and cocked the gun. Then he threw it away. Kaname got a glance at the man. It was David.
“David!”
“Sousuke! What are you doing here! You can get killed!” David said
“…” Sousuke remained quiet
“Anyway” David said. He was wearing a backpack. He reached inside and took out a folder. Sousuke stood up.
“Here… Here’s you’re resignation papers…”
“But, I didn’t resign though…”
“Also, your reinstating papers. You no longer fight for Mithril… Now you fight for Mithril… *Chuckles*”
Kaname’s eye brow raised and thought “wait… isn’t that a contradiction”
Sousuke looked through the file and his eyes grew wider and he smiled. Sousuke looked at David. Sousuke stood in attention and saluted.
“Sir!”
David turned red and punched Sousuke in the chest.
“Never ever salute me in public!”
“I’m Sorry sir!”
“Sir?” Kaname asked
“Don’t call me Sir neither While I’m not in uniform”
“Yes Sir! I mean Sir! I mean David”
“Why is he calling you Sir, David?” Kaname asked David
“Well, because I gave him what he wanted… In return… He is going to work for me” David answered
“Welcome Sousuke” David said and offered his hand
“Thank you…” Sousuke Answered and shook David’s hand
Don't worry about it... I have a couple of evil twists for the couple that would make them closer hehehe
