June 8th/ I.J.C. 196 / The Stellar, Deluxe suite./ Araya's POV.
"Urgh…." groaning in bed, Araya cursed her poor back. "Why…am I so weak…" Staring into space, she shifted uncomfortably in bed. Just wearing those hefty suits for 10 minutes was enough to put her out for two days…
"My time…is almost up, huh…" Her body was getting weaker by the day, without the medicine from the Ottoman she would be bedridden already, but for it to come this quickly…
"Yoha is already starting to bloom and I am about to wither away…" Yoha's condition comes faster than normal, normally it would come at around 7 or 8 but in her daughter's case, it comes at just 4 years old. "Is it…because she is not full-blooded?"
As she was thinking, her phone suddenly rang out loudly, the tone of that ring was something she had never heard before. As she looked at who could call her, she was surprised to see Haro on the screen, since when did the little ball manage to do this?
Click accept, Araya was about to ask what was going on but Haro's voice cut her off. "Danger! Danger! Yoha is hurt! Yoha is Hurt! Simulation Pod! Simulation Pod!" That was enough, Araya got up from her bed quickly, feeling the pain flare in her back but she dismissed them and rushed out.

June 8th/ I.J.C. 196 / The Stellar, Entertainment Area./ Reymon's POV.
Amazing… Reymon watched as the girl completely read all of his brother's movements, and dissected it completely in just a few minutes. Her casual demeanor and how she acted as if his brother wasn't even good enough was quite charming, although he already had a woman he fancy.
"Satisfy? Can I go now?" The girl's words startled both him and Jean awake. Her ruby red eye seemed to pierce him to the very soul, and it seemed quite effective against the younger Jean, who got a bright blush on his face, something the girl didn't notice because he was hiding his face away from her.
"A-ah, Yes you can go-" Before Reymon could finish, the door to the pod burst open forcefully, standing there with a red face full of anger was none other than his brother Romon. His terrifying glare was directed at the girl.
"You…!" Before he could get a word out, his brother rushed in faster than he could, pushing the girl back on the seat and grabbing her by the neck!
"Brother! What are you doing!?" Reymon and Jean immediately went to help but due to Romon's superior physical ability, they couldn't even make him move an inch!
"Grh! Grrr….!" The sound of the girl choking entered his ear and immediately sent him into panic mode.
"Brother! Do you have any Idea of what Father will do after he learns of what you just did!?" he screamed but his brother did not listen.
"You bastard! It was you, wasn't it!? 5 days ago you humiliated me!" Romon said as his grip on the girl became harder and harder. This left Reymon baffled. 'H-he is still mad about that day.' Reymon thought, 'This is bad, if I let him continue We will potentially lose connection to this talented young lady! Granted Romon didn't kill her first!'
"Stop this, Romon! Think about our family! Father will be mad if we lose the potential of this young lady!" Reymon said, but to his dismay, Romon was so mad that he couldn't even hear a proper word from someone.
"You! Because of you!" Just as he thinks it has started to get dangerous, the girl starts moving, trying to peel his brother's hand off her, seeing it is no use, the girl grabs Romon's arm and suddenly, yanks it down to her face and bites it.
Romon immediately released his grab on the girl due to pain, but in doing that, Romon pushed off both him and Jean, falling down on the floor with a loud thud. She could hear the girl mumble something. Suddenly, a round ball quickly rolled out of the pod, which he failed to grab.
He thought it was just a doll, but to think it was a robot…Suddenly, the atmosphere changed and the already tense atmosphere was getting heavier…
"Heh…hehehe…ahahahaha!" The girl… laughed out suddenly, laughing like a maniac. She laughed as she got up with a shaky step, "Hehe…he…ha…You're…quite the pathetic guy, huh?" She said, making Romon's body immediately stiff. "Hitting a girl, one that was at least 5 years younger than you. How pathetic can you be, Mommy and Daddy didn't give you enough love?" The girl's hoarse voice slowly healed as she said those words to infuriate Romon further, just as he was about to stop her, Romon rushed out with utter madness for expression.
Roman reached the girl and punched her straight in the face, but instead of the sound of flesh hitting or skull breaking, it was met with nothing, the girl dodged at the last second with an inhumane reflex.
In a second, the girl grabbed Romon's extending arm and used it to pull him toward her, before kneeing him straight into the abdomen. Romon, unable to even utter his pain out, was elbowed on his back, almost hitting his spine.
Romon's body fell to the ground, trying to ease his pain in the back, Reymon could only stare, Jean was crowding next to him, and was fully scared to the point that his teeth were chattering, but…that was not what Reymon felt.
The only feeling he has right now…is Amazement… 'Amazing…she could put down Reymon who was top in physical ability…' He stared at the girl until he suddenly met her eyes. Instead of the ruby red that he saw before, it was now shining with amber gold, brightly under the dark room as if it was glowing. No…it was glowing in this dark room, before he could fully admire her eye, the girl stumbled forward but she was caught by someone, a woman probably in her thirties with hair that was similar to her.
"Yoha!" She screams out, trying to wake the girl up, but to no avail…She glared back at him, the glare of the woman was so terrifying, to the point that he could feel the chill down his spine. "You…Are you guys the one who did this?" She asked, her voice so cold to the point that Reymon felt like he couldn't breathe.
"W-we just…want her to help vent out R-romon's frustration…W-we didn't know that Romon would act like that! I apologize for our mistake!" Reymon said, quickly bowing down to the woman, he could feel her glare even without looking, the chill sensation as if death was looming over him was so overwhelming.
"I will have your family take responsibility for this." That was the last thing the woman said before leaving. The overwhelming pressure slowly disappeared and the only thing Reymon could do was…laugh. "Ahaha…Julia…I think I found someone you will like." Uttering the name of his lover, Reymon begins the cleanup.

June ***th/ I.J.C. 196 / The Stellar, Medical bay./
Beep…Beep….
The slow beeping wakes me up, and the room smells of medicine, which then makes me question where I am, until I open my eyes, allowing the bright light to penetrate, quickly closing them again useless. I want to go blind, I slowly open it, letting my eye adjust to the light.
What greeted me was quite the familiar white roof, one of which I had known since the first day I boarded The Stellar. The Medical Bay…Slowly getting up, I feel a hint of pain in my left arm, when I look down, I see a syringe attached to my arm, with the IV dripping down…
"Ah…ah…ahh…" My voice was hoarse…as if I hadn't been drinking for days. I looked around to see no one was near me, outside of the red button that would call the nurse. Moving my arm, it feels so tiring just to move it up, I manage to push the red button hearing a long beep sound.
After waiting for a little bit, a nurse came in with a tray of water jugs and glass. "My, You took your time sleeping." The nurse said, laying the tray down on the table next to me, and pouring a glass of water for me.
I took the cup she was handing to me and gulped it down, my body hungrily gulped down the water and I almost choked but managed to calm down. "H-how…Ahem, cough… How long…did I fall asleep." I ask her with a hoarse voice.
"3 days. Your mother has been worried sick, you know? We tried so hard to convince her that you would be fine with our equipment but she is quite the stubborn person, it took us almost the whole day to finally convince her." the nurse said, sighing.
"Why…if I merely just faint…isn't it ok if she wants to see me..?" I said, displaying my displeasure at them taking me away from Mama.
The nurse just stared at me. "Wow, you quiet the mama girl, huh? The problem isn't that you faint, it is that you didn't wake up even after almost a day. There is no injury on your body besides the throat which we use gel to heal, but you still didn't wake up, so the doctor thinks it best to let you rest with an IV drip to help you recover faster, who knows if you were sleeping on the ship bed, it might take a week for you to wake up." She lays out her reason, one that I can understand but I still don't see why they need to separate Mama and me.
"I still don't see the reason why Mama can't visit me or stay with me," I said.
"Ahh, that's because…huh…I guess I don't know why but the doctor said so." the nurse mutters out uncaringly, and immediately my mind races.
"He didn't do anything to my body did he…"
"What? Haha, no, if he did he would get beat up, I was just joking. The reason she didn't allow you to visit was that your condition was so bad it might make her have a panic attack, well with you squirming around as if you were always in pain for the past 3 days of sleep, even without anesthetic or painkiller, you still letting out groan like a zombie." The nurse laughed as if she found the situation funny.
"You…are a bad adult, joking with matters that could determine the child's life like this, quite bad."
"Yeah, yeah, I'm a bad adult. Now that you wake up we will allow your mother to visit, not before you get checked up by the doctor though. Well, I will bring you something delicious to eat, only having IV drops would malnourish your body after all. Oh, and by delicious I mean bland but nutritious food." The nurse said with a smile as she left the room, leaving me alone in the vast room.
She is quite the joker, and dealing with her makes me…feel at ease for some reason, was she using that to distract my mind…?
Ah…whatever…I will just wait.

June 11th/ I.J.C. 196 / The Stellar, Medical bay./
"mmh…It really is bland." I quickly scoop up the almost tasteless soup and drink it down hungrily, then I grab the bread which has butter on it, thankfully. I gulp it down and wash it down with milk, just as I am about to eat another piece of bread, the door slams open.
"Yoha!" Mama came out, making me smile instantly.
"Mama!" I drop my spoon and reach my hand out to her, which immediately results in a hug.
"Baby, are you ok? Do you feel pain anywhere? Are you hurt? Did the doctor do something weird to you or force some suspicious pill?!" Mama rained down the question, which I, who was much more calm in this situation, slowly answered her.
"Yes, I'm feeling ok now, I don't feel pain or hurt anywhere and the doctor didn't force me to pill or do something strange to me," I said, recounting the doctor who visited just now, he was the one who did a check up on my after I faint the first time.
After listening to me, Mama visibly calmed down. "Is that so…ok…sorry, Yoha. Mama is…really worried about you." Mama said as she took me into a hug, I snuggled up close to her for warmth which I miss.
"Mmh…So…what about the…boys?" I ask the question that I want to know, after hearing me utter the word 'Boys' Mama's face darkens.
"They will pay, I will make sure of it," Mama said as if it was natural, and then her expression turned into that of a smile. "Anyway, what did they make you eat? You are still in your growing period! Wait a minute, Mama will order you something delicious right now." She quickly grabs her phone to call for some order to be sent to the medical bay.
And me, Who could do nothing but lay in the bed, getting spoon-fed by Mama, was one of the happiest moments of my life.
