[third party narrative]
it was another day here at the house everyone was cheerful and lively treating it as an ordinary day . .but only lucia knew that today was the start of everything
the day of connie's shipment the 22th
"ohayo lucia" the sudden call of his name brought Lucia out of his thoughts he calmly retracted the excitement that flashed in his eyes and slowly looked back and gave a smile at emma's direction
"ohayo emma" he greeted back . .
soon norman and ray came and greeted everyone with a smile
the main character of today connie could be seen next to dan holding her little bunny
"lucia are you in a good mood?" a voice sounded . lucia looked to the side and sure enough he saw "mom" with that graceful and saint like smile
"yes mama today is quite a good day" Lucia answered. . why wouldn't today be a good day? its finally time for the plot to start.
with a smile he sat at the dining table next to emma and norman
"lets give thanks that all of you 38 siblings are able to live here happily today too." mom said as she closed her eyes and clasped her hands together. soon everyone followed including lucia
after eating everyone got seated in the examination room
"answer each question within 9 seconds"
was the last audible voice heard and soon only the flash of the equipments could be heard
within minutes the test was done and most people breathed a sigh of relief and there were those three Emma ray and norman who had the same attitude before and after the test
"lets see the results shall we?" mom spoke and everyone's eyes were quickly glued to her
"oh! congratulations to emma norman Lucia and ray you four got perfect scores"
mom said with her eyes curved and still with that overly touching motherly kind smile
after the results were announced everyone exclaimed and started talking among themselves
"man those four are really different"
said one person on the crowd
"norman is a genius with the best of brains
and ray an intellect who can compete against norman's genius ‚ lucia with an also insanely high analytic skills and with insane speed and flexibility‚ emma has amazing athletic skills and her learning abilities allow her to stay with the other three"
lucia smiled and felt thankful that he was mentioned so he flashed a smile at gilda's direction
gilda who witnessed his smile sighed and complimented "lucia how can you be so good looking? even prettier than a girl"
at this remark lucia chose to stay silent and just smile politely his ruby red eyes seemed to shine
"whoaaa! lucia i swear i can see flowers blooming around you!" emma said as she rubbed her eyes
"idiot how can there be flowers blooming inside here?" ray said with a lazy tone
.
"norman! i challenge you to a game of tag!"
don stood up and said in a loud declarative voice facing norman
norman smiled and acquiesce
we went outside to play and everyone participated except ray he held the time watch and sat under the shade of the tree with his book
{focused perspective}
i held my breathing and jumped from tree to tree closely following norman
"thank you for always taking care of me don"
connie said with her baby soft sticky voice
"of course! you can count on me" don said as he saw footprints
"oh!! norman let his guard down!"
don said with a smile he looked besides him and saw Connie with an awkward expression and he looked behind him
he then saw norman and due to this don was shocked speechless
"didn't i tell you? your weakness is you make quick judgements and loose your cool" norman said with his gentle smile as he tap don's shoulder and walked away
seeing that everything was happening according to the plot i smiled with relief . .i was worried that due to my arrival there might be a butterfly effect but thank god it looks like a few scenes connected to him were just added and the others faith and destiny was exactly the same
i smiled and with light steps i chose to play around for a bit and not stick too closely to norman
after a few minutes
a not too loud scream was heard
a few meters away from me that voice sounded like it was Norman . .
"could it be a bait?" i whispered to myself but chose to follow it anyways
hopping from tree to tree i then saw norman crouching down
'this scene wasnt in the anime' i thought and observed the surroundings. . except for earlier norman dint make a sound he crouched down silently without making any movements
listening closely i can hear his breathing so he should still be alive . . to observe better i decided to move a bit closely but then the tree branch i was stepping on broke and i fell into a pit down below covered by leaves
'a trap?' i thought to myself
"lucia your weakness is you will always try to get close to any drama or conflicts around . . even knowing that something might be wrong you still couldn't resist to check whats going on" norman said with that gentle voice
"and norman. . . your weakness is that you think too logically and doesn't consider things outside your expertise" i said with a grin as i hopped in a zigzag pattern in a fast speed and came out of the pit
i saw normans stunned expression as i stood far away from him and pat the leaves off my clothes
"however it is true that you caught me. . . " i smiled at him and shook my head
moving on he then caught emma
"waaaah! he caught me again" emma wailed as she rolled around and started making a fuss
"what do you have that norman doesnt?" ray said as he closed his book and stared at emma
"calmness? superb intelligence?" emma answered as she thought about it hard
"its strategy" ray answered
"in terms of physical ability you have the upper limit but what norman have is in here"
ray said pointing at his brain
" in terms of strategy you're much better tha me though ray" norman said with a smile
"in that case lucia is better than me" ray said as he looked at me
"thats not right. . its more like he knows everything" ray said replacing his earlier words
i smile at them and just leaned back as don proposed another set of tag . . .
