"Oni-chan! I want that one!" Aiko was demanding from the assortment of delicious food the shop had on display through the window.
Niko on the other hand was nervously laughing, feeling embarrassed about her sisters behaviour.
She resorted to sitting quietly in her wheelchair whilst her brother and sister were bickering with one another.
"Um Oni-chan, are you still a Valkyrie Pilot?" Niko asked.
Hazer at first was a bit surprised at the question. He ruffled the back of his black hair for a moment.
"No, sadly I was discharged around about a year ago"
From Niko's reaction she looked to be surprised
Clearing his throat Hazer spoke up, "Anyway, let's keep moving"
He was about to move Niko's wheelchair when Aiko latched onto his arm pulling him vigorously.
"Hey! I said I wanted that candy stick!"
Sighing Hazer pulls out some money from his wallet.
"Alright here's some money for, and be quick!"
Aiko smiled enthusiastically, "Thanks Oni-chan, you're the best!"
She runs off into the store to get her much prized candy stick.
As Sachika changed out her nano fibre skin right suit, the sweat slowly poured down her body.
The sweat ran between the cleavage of her small breasts, and firm rounded buttocks.
She changed into her pink underwear and academy uniform. The latter was an assortment of black, white and red.
A small tie along with a dress halfway up the thigh and high socks stretching above the knee.
Leaving the changing room her silver hair swaying side to side.
She was met by another academy student going by the name Hibiki. Her crimson red pixie haircut made her stand out among the other students.
"You did well out there Sachika!" She shouted waving to Sachika.
"It was hardly challenging" she replied bluntly.
Hibiki just laughed.
"Yeah I guess you have a point"
Crossing her arms Sachika grunted to herself clearly displeased.
"When will someone with some real skill turn up in this academy"
Hibiki once again laughed albeit nervously this time. Be careful what you wish for!, she thought to herself.
"Anyway we have a class with Daiki-san" Hibiki blurted out.
Sachika's interest was slightly piqued.
"Really? What is the focus for today's class?" She asked.
Hibiki just looked at Sachika for a moment, perplexed.
"You don't remember? It's about the Valkyrie Wars, and the Calamity Valkyrie that put an end to it"
"It must of slipped my mind with all these matches in the Valhalla Games" Sachika rubs her forehand as if attending a headache.
Suddenly red lights started flashing in the academy's corridors along with air raid siren.
Both Sachika and Hibiki looked around for a moment, confused.
"Nebula Fissure, Site: Tokyo, Japan...Squads Alpha and Bravo report to the staging area!"
Sachika and Hibiki immediately sprinted to the academy's staging area to prepare for launch.
Hazer watched as Aiko and Niko enjoyed an arcade game. It was times like this that he enjoyed seeing his twin sister's laugh and play around.
That peace was soon disturbed when the sound of an air raid siren rang throughout the city.
He knew all too well what that air raid siren meant.
"Aiko, Niko we need to go now!"
The twins looked at him confused not knowing what that sound meant, and why Hazer was on edge.
In an instance a large electrical current started to emerge between them.
"Aiko, Niko!" Hazer shouted as his hand reached out. But it was too late.
It increased into a large spherical electrical charge it then exploded.
At that point Hazer blacked out from the explosion.
Hazer jolted upward breathing heavily. Looking around all he could was darkness and rubble.
"Aiko!..." He picks himself up slowly shaking his head "...Niko!"
He got no response from his twin sister's.
Moving forward he dislodged boulders of concrete to make room as he moved around.
"Aiko! Niko!" He shouted again.
This time he got a response.
"Oni-chan!"
He could tell that it was Niko following the voice, he eventually found her on the floor. Her clothes were dirty and tattered.
He knelt down hugging his little sister.
"Niko, where's your sister?" He asked.
Between short sobs Niko replied, "I don't know...she was me one moment...then gone the next" she continued to cry.
Hazer comforted his little sister whilst shouting out Aiko's name.
In the distance he could see a small pool of blood leaking out from under the concrete blocks.
"Aiko!"
Hazer ran to that very spot leaving Niko alone. He shoved boulders aside only to see a sight he didn't want to.
Beneath him Aiko laid unconscious with a pool of blood surrounding her.
