HxH: Fraternal Twins

Chapter 26: Agonizing lost memories

Vince Bodaodai stood in the darkness of his lab, gazing upon a glass casing of ants. His mouth covered by his white medical mask, bright red eyes piercing through the ebony and his hands appearing stuffed in his pockets. A distant look was plastered on the man, as he bore his eyes upon his subjects.

Faint murmurs of soft boiling liquid and machinery were evident in the background. Soon.... Very soon..the time will come. Everyone is almost ready for our war; if we fail...then I'm sure these ants will make up for it. He mused mentally with a sinister tone. "With Sikiyona on their side, she most likely gave away any piece of information about me and the rebellion's base... It won't be long....until they come to us and issue the...war..."Once again he spoke in his head, taking in the possibilities of how they will start their attack. "Considering their IQ level, they will surely come in bluntly, or try and be stealthy. Which in their case...trying to be sneaky won't work. They'll make plans of attack, before heading in blindly; Netero and his zodiacs, no doubt will make the plans with their new allies on their side. My soldiers have a strong teacher to train them... So, I don't really need to worry about their strength in the future fight. If my soldiers die in the war, Servine will have a card up his sleeve. With his power...not even the soldiers can remain at peace... Hahahahahaha...~" He voiced as he turned away from the ant casing and paced to the entrance.

He opened the door then left, making his way down the hall. His lab coat softly flailed from his walking speed, his hands in his pockets, and had an intense glare in his eyes. Metal against metal could be heard down the hall, sounding as if someone was sparring. Vince'seyes squinted a bit at the resonance, increasing his speed in the process.

Once he came across a door, just to the side of him, he opened it and noticed Servine training some men. He was instructing them all to practice combos, strikes, and many more. Some men had swords, a few had their own nen skills, and others held ranged weapons. They were all using their nen with their weapons.

Vince stood in the doorway, leaning on the inside of the frame. Seeing Allarie shifting his head over to him, Vince nodded in a greeting gesture. The said scientist straightened his posture, as the General came over. " Sir, is there perhaps something you need?~" Servine asked after kneeling on one knee with his head lowered.

Silence met both of their ears until Vince broke it. "Have they improved...? Training Sikiyona to be nearly as powerful as you... I have no doubts about your training methods, but how strong exactly?" He asked the kneeling man before him, with stoic red eyes.

"In just a few days, they had mastered most of their nen abilities. I believe they are ready for the war now... Though, I have my doubts, since they're not as strong as my sweet Siki. They will suffice for now.~ How much longer, until Netero's side, strikes?" The General asked, whilst raising his head to the said man.

"Not long... Since Sikiyona had most likely given them information about us, Netero will have his allies and the Zodiacs prepare for the battle. If I know him correctly, the time limit that he asked everyone to prepare in, would be short. He could strike at any minute, so do keep your eyes out for them. Being near N.G.L, it will surely take them a while before they get to us; giving us plenty of time to prepare ourselves as well," He explained, then turned his back to his loyal pawn. "Do keep in mind, if you underestimate them, you will get killed. The twins and Sikiyona are going to be apart of the fight, so if worse comes to worst, take Sikiyona and Rui out first. Rui would be the biggest threat in the war since she can summon nature and insects to aid them on their side. Ruby, on the other hand, is more of the type to fight one opponent at a time; so you needn't worry about her much. Wipeout those who can take down more than just a couple of our men, they will no doubt be the biggest thorn in our sides," He explained to his General with an eye peeking over his shoulder.
