Unlikely alliance

    by: darkjak45 Author IconMail Icon
As the military boat drives off with all of your findings, you open your drop off box. You open it and see it’s a care package from Cynthia. What’s in there is some painkillers just in case your throat starts hurting, and a gun just in case. You see it’s the five-seven and it has a note on it. “Just on case push comes to shove. I’ll be waiting for you.” It said. A gun. Even though all detectives under Simon’s employment get guns for protection, he never got the good ones. This could be handy. You holster it and make your way back to the school. Evening starts to loom as you make your way back. You know that you won’t be able to look around now that their classes are out. Seems like finding chijinda will have to wait until tomorrow morning. ………Chijinda. You said. You immediately take a few painkillers after saying that.

When morning hits, you quickly begin your search. As you search for chijinda, you come up empty. You search in the empty rooms, but can’t find him. As you walk down a hall, you decide to peek in a class and see that a teacher overlooking students doing a test. You think you saw something climbing her leg. When you squint your eyes, you see a small figure scaling the teacher’s leg. You wonder if that is chijinda. Seems like something he would do when he decides to live out his wild fantasies. He even told you scaling a giant woman was one of his fantasies. You can just barge right in there. You’ll make a scene. Seems like you have to wait until class is done. You hope chijinda isn’t indulging in his fantasies. Hey! What are you doing here?! A society member said. You know you’ve overstayed your welcome. You run to the student quarters and hide in one of the empty rooms. As you hear passing footsteps, you breathe a sigh of relief. You walk out of the room and head back to the class, but see that everybody is gone. You punch the wall out of anger. As of now, finding chijinda has become a priority. You’ll turn this school upside down if you have to. You run outside.

When you get outside, you start looking, but still come up empty. You search until mid-day and still not find him. You head to the island and contemplate. You’re hoping the worse hasn’t come to past. You found narue, but not chijinda. You know you shouldn’t have let him in the village, but you couldn’t help but chase after Kanon. You feel like a Dumbass. After a few minutes past, you calm yourself down and head back to the school. As you head back, you see the stone bridge has been blown up. As you get closer, you see someone fingers holding onto the ledge. Just before the person falls, you grab their hand and pull them up. When you see the person, you see it’s the Mia. Your eyes widen when you see her here. Oh, Great. You of all people to see my like this! She said. Mia being here means she must be up to no good again. Maybe narue didn’t send you on a wild goose chase after all. But knowing mia here means something must be going on. Knowing her background, it would be wise to toss her into the ravine below. The bitch obviously didn’t care about other people’s life, so why should she have it? But you know chijinda will be badgering you about this forever. You pull out a syringe and take out a full injection of blood. Hey! She said. Then you toss her onto the other side of the bridge. Ow! You…...! She said. You jump the gap and push Mia to the side.

Knowing that Mia’s here just made the situation even worse. That crazy bitch tried to kill you and chijinda on multiple occasion. Her appearance here can’t be coincidence. One thing you know for sure is that you have to find chijinda before she does. Probably didn’t do any good by just sitting on a railing on the rooftop for the past thirty minutes. All you were wondering was were was chijinda? You jump down and land on the ground and decide to head back into the underground lab. When you get there, you start to look around. While searching, you find can hear distant voices. You think it’s just a society member getting grilled by an upper ranking person, but the sounds persist. As you get closer, the sounds turn out to be sounds of fighting. You decided to find where it’s coming from. As you get closer, you can hear the distinct voices. As you keep going, you hear screaming. Someone must be in trouble, but you don’t think you should go out of your way to save the girl in trouble. You ignore it, but your conscious is getting the better of you. You reluctantly decide to go to the source.

When you get there, you see no one is here. You were annoyed, but you see a huge ass diary in front of you. You’re wondering how a dairy got this big, or who wrote in it, but you decide to look at it. When you look at it, you can see it’s narue’s writing. You can tell by their being a little heart instead of an dot on the I’s. As you read the dairy, everything starts to become clear. The narue you saw wasn’t the narue you know. The choice of words, the attitude, even her gaze was a little off. The narue you saw was a clone of her. You kept reading and see that your name is mentioned a few times. Turns out, your cold demeanor towards her in the last time you saw her was the catalyst. Now you know what a driving force for narue being here was. You owe her more than an apology now. If anyone knows where narue is, that clone will know. All you have do is find her, but where is she? You see there is a corridor to your left. Maybe the clone when that way. You head through the corridor and keep going down. While exploring, you found a lab. You look at the computer and turn it on. Turns out, this is where they make their shrinking compound. A few good ideas pop into your head about this, but your morality and chijinda won’t let you forget about those choices. You leave the computer before you change your mind. As you leave, you see a sight that brings a smile to your face. Mia and Kanon are both fighting each other. Turns out maybe you two have a common enemy, but they are both your enemy, so you decide to sit back and watch the fist fly. After 4 minutes go by, Mia beats down Kanon. After letting her ego show, she turns to see you slow clapping.
Ugh. Just what I needed. You. She said. You hate giving people you don’t like credit, but she’s a tough one. No remarks? No insults? She said. She doesn’t know you had cybernetic implants, and you’re going to keep it that way. Hm. Maybe I should look at you not talking in a different light. Actually kinda of peaceful. …….Consider us even. I don’t owe you a thing. Mia said. Mia is the last person you want to call in a favor from. I take it you understand why you’re here and why I’m here. She said. Even if your vocal cords were healed and you could talk, you wouldn’t waste your breath in asking. You said. I don’t like this as much as you do, but if you’ve been following us and seen that dairy, you…….know that……we have to……put our petty differences aside. She said. You do think there is a lot more to this than just a clone, but working with the bitch who wanted you and chijinda dead? Any other time, you’d toss that idea out the window. Believe me, I wouldn’t come to you even if you were the last person on earth. But out of reference to how dangerous of a person you are and chijinda, I’ll only make an exception this time. She said. ……..Fine. You said. You quickly take more painkillers. I don’t expect you to listen to me at all, but you did save, me from plummeting into the ravine. She said. …….Chijinda. You said. He’s fine. Don’t worry. Just pull your own weight. She said. …….Bitch. You said.
