The Awakening: Bio-Genetics

"The samples of the Kaijus are out!"

They froze at his words.

Ten's heart slammed a loud beat. 'Finally' he thought with shaky eyes, 'we will get to know what those things are'

"The specimens of the Kaijus are..."

*Loud Sound Of Heart Beat*

Their hearts pounding loudly in their chest, waiting with anticipation at the results.

"Human"

*Solemn Silence*

'He actually told them' Kashi thought with shaky eyes, he stood with the rest of the medical team at a corner having shocked expressions too.

Kazuya leaning against the wall, her arms folded underneath her bosom, her expression dark.

"Hu-human?" Hiro stammered in shock.

Everyone was too.

"No way" Ten said.

"Those things... are human?" Shino said in shock.

Yuki had a dark expression.

Whispers filled everywhere from the bio-genetics.

"Yes... as you all know those Kaiju's are humans infected by the virus like you all are but in a different way" Anzai said sternly with an unreadable expression.

"This news is relayed to you so that you all will know how dire this situation is... what we are facing is indeed bigger than us... this Sp-virus has untold mysteries that we are yet to discover" he adds as for a brief moment his eyes lands on Hiro, Touka words rang in his head.

Few Hours Ago

After self pondering, Anzai met with Touka.

"Sp0?" Anzai said puzzled.

She nods.

"An unknown stage Hiro might have unlocked by himself or a part of the virus we don't know able, we can't identify the activities in his cell, we could only pray the stage he's in isn't as worst as it already is for the bio-genetics" Touka explained.

Anzai fist tighten.

***

"Bear one thing in mind bio-genetics" he began with his eyes closed.

"I know all of you are now pondering in your head and heart about the fact that those Kaiju's you killed might be your loved ones or more" he said as an image of a woman flashed in his head.

His eyes opened.

"Know these... that those monsters are no longer humans, and there is nothing you can do to help them, they are now mindless Beast's driven by the thoughts to devour us".

Their eyes shaking at his words, their minds in disarray at the discovery and the painful harsh truth they had to face each time they were on the battle field.

"There is nothing we can do to put a stop to it, but slay them down so that they may rest freely on to the next, that is the only thing we can do for them, rather than let them walk this earth as beings they were never meant to be!".

Rooftop

'Humans' Ten thought with sad eyes, he was seated at the edge of the place, on guard but rather he was lost in thought, the wind careless his messy black hair freely.

'All these time' his eyes trembled. 'We have been killing human' his heart slammed a loud heart beat as an image of his mom, Kagami and Kaiyo flashed in his head. He stared at his palm, 'They are all monsters now' his teeth clenched as well as his palm in a tight fist, tears slides down his cheeks.

"Don't think about it too much, it will only get worse" Fuijo said sternly.

Ten turns to him.

"The shocking reality that all these time for the past one year, we have been fighting Humans turned monsters, isn't exactly comforting" he explained.

"I know, but I still can't wrap my head around it" Ten said.

"Hmm... you're a genius Ten, your head is practically beaming with light" he states seating on the edge too in a swift move.

"Dr. Touka said the Kaiju's we fought are on Sp2 stage, which means still mutating as well as the Alpha... but the scary thing is the Alpha was crazy ass strong even at Sp2, a grade that we are higher than and yet we couldn't even kill it easily" Ten said with shaky eyes.

Fujio froze at his words.

"My question is" he turned to him.

"What happens when we encounter a Kaiju the same grade as us?" Ten adds.

Fujio gulps hard at his words.

"Stop it Ten" He said chuckling nervously.

"You're scaring me".

"Well" Ten sighs facing the view back.

"We all should be scared... at least now we know what we are up against, infected civilians of Tokyo"

Fuijo eyes trembles.

"This is really not comforting".

"198, 199, 200, 201, 202, 203, 204, 20-" Shino broke lying flat on the ground, taking harsh breath.

"299, 300, 301, 302, 303, 304, 305" Hiro still went on with his one hand push up, not stopping.

Shino sighs seating on the ground.

"Hey Hiro, aren't you bothered by what General Anzai said?" He said faintly.

But Hiro was too engrossed in his counting to hear.

"He is" Yuki said.

Shino turns to her.

"He's just dealing with it, in his own way" she adds for certain.

Shino blinks at her words.

"You seem to know a lot about Hiro" he said.

She turned to him with an unreadable expression.

"I don't know much about you guys but I do know, you guys didn't know each until after the black storm, if I'm correct" he said.

"I'm his eyes and anchor that's all you need to know, wherever he goes, I go" she said in a simple tone.

Shino chuckled slightly at her words, scratching the back of his head.

"That sounds more like a devotion, don't you think" he said.

"Devotion?"

Shino nods.

"Yes, feeling of strong love or loyalty, it sounds just like that" he explained.

Unaware to Yuki her cheeks went red, her eyes wide and also in confusion.

"That you hav-".

"I will get you guys water!" She hissed standing up abruptly with a dark expression.

Hiro paused instantly.

"Ha thanks, could really use that right now" he said watching her walking away.

Hiro continued his push up.

Shino had an amused look, before joining Hiro.

Yuki stops as her back leaned against the wall. 'Why' she thought. Her tightened fist to her chest. 'Why is my heart beating fast' she looks up to the ceiling which was partly destroyed, so the sun rays came in and the skies could be seen.

"Devotion" she said faintly.
