Chapter 2 - Chapter Two: Back At Headquarters

Yuki looks at the man in white, she is pretty confused on what he means by headquarters, isn't this just an old hotel. Her train of thought suddenly gets distracted as she hears the creek of a door opening. The man and Arashi both walk in with Yuki behind them. When they enter the base Yuki sees a girl about five years older than her. This mysterious women salutes the man in white as they continue walking. "i-is that A-Akihito?!" says a strange voice from a dark corner. Yuki looks that way and see a strange skinny man with goggles that cover his eyes. "this is Ken Watoru, our tech guy. " the man happily shakes Yuki's hand as he rushes off, with his lab assistant Hikaru quickly following behind him. Akihito walks into a room on the end of the narrow hallway and Yuki and Arashi follow shortly behind him, the room is just as dark as the rest of the building but it's much more of a mess, with papers scattered every which way. Akihito takes off his visor which shows his dark purple eyes and looks down at a women who's head is down on the desk. The trio hear load snoring coming from the women. Akihito hesitantly shakes the body which causes the women to quickly jump , this startles Akihito who lounges back, though Arashi falls to on his back. The women smiles a bit embarrassed and quickly apologizes. Akihito reassures her that it's fine but she continues to apologize. Yuki however examines the women she has long long black hair that mixes well with her white shirt, along with glasses which shows her blue eyes. The women smiles and asks what Akihito needed. "I'm sorry colonel Ria Sakai, was just reporting the fact that I am back", she responds "it's okay, it is very important that we know where you are. You are our best soldier." Akihito shrugs and says he's heading towards the area that one of the survivors said they spotted the enemy. Ria nods as Akihito walks away, Arashi is about to follow before Ria stops him. "Sorry, but you can't follow him. Civilians are required to go down stairs with the rest." Yuki apologies for her brother and they walk away. Yuki and Arashi flop down on the mattress they received and begin to talk. Arashi says he's going to follow Akihito, because he's the only one at the base he can trust. "But, he did say he was going where enemies were reported!" Arashi quickly runs off, while Yuki contemplates whether she should follow him or not. She eventually decides to run after her little brother.
