Bent Fate (An Arknights Fanfiction)

Chapter 1

Not wanting to irritate the person waiting outside, Doctor Y/N closed the small booklet he was writing on before fixing his self, making adjustments in his attire to be more presentable.

The sliding doors opened and he was greeted by the sight of a brown haired vulpo standing on the other side of the doorway, her arms are crossed together as they stared at each other. Y/N smiled at the shorter vulpo, a smile which wasn't returned by the latter.

Someone's looking pissed..

"Franka?" The Doctor questioned, seemingly dragging Franka, his vulpo assistant, out of her daydream if she is having one.

"Mmhm. Come on." Franka said before turning around and walking away.

Y/N took a second staring at her before following up.

"Why are we in a hurry?" Doctor Y/N asked his assistant as they walked down the hallway, already a dozen meters away from the office.

"You don't want to keep your visitors waiting right?" Franka said straight to him.

"No I don't mind, they can wait forever."

Franka gave him a blank stare right after saying that.

"I mean—"

"How did you even become one of Rhodes Island's top leaders..." Franka whispered although it did little to prevent Y/N from hearing it.

They remained silent throughout the rest of their journey to the reception area. The temperature was that of a normal air conditioned commercial establishment level of cool. It was indeed normal inside the landship but the silence made Y/N notice the detail nonetheless.

"Ahem.. so what are these people about?" Y/N asked, genuinely curious.

"I thought you've already gone through the papers?"

"Ohh, was it there?"

Franka let out a heavy sigh upon realizing.

"Look, tell me, what were you doing back there?" Franka started to sound like she had just started an interrogation on the Doctor.

"Writing." Y/N calmly answered.

"Writing what?"

"Anything? Just some nonsense..."

"Oh..." Franka stepped in front of Y/N and faced him. "So you were writing nonsense instead of doing your work, I see."

"What? No, I'll do it all. I just want to get some things out of my head."

"Fine."

Y/N stared at his assistant longer than usual as they continued walking.

She rarely gives up an argument... now that's new...

Or maybe she is too pissed at something else.

A MINUTE LATER....

"Franka, something happened?" Y/N asked, looking at Franka whose eyes aren't moving away from the way ahead of them.

"Don't mind it. You won't be able to understand anyway..."

"I won't buy that.."

"That's all you have to know."

"Ohh? Could it be that you pranked someone again and had your prank going back at you?"

"......." Franka hesitated but she wanted the Doctor to shut up already. "That's just right about what happened..."

"Ohh." Of all the operators that have been appointed as assistant...

"Who could that be?"
