the day was dark as even the sun sunken by the evening clouds of darkness and corruption. sparks of light slowly appears as closer the view gets lies the truth of the sparks.
it were form bombardment between between three side of ships. one flag of union army of the galactic force stellar guardians while the other tow shown to be from the cultist fraction called Black Raven religion servants of the dark overlord. the other ship cornering the union empire with shear strength and brute power. the union may have stronger and greater technology but without number and man power to support they still can be cornered to dead. they fought and fought till the end. while inside all soldiers and unit already inside of their escape pot abandoning the ship.
"CAPTAIN!! THIS SHIP WON'T LAST ANYMORE.. WE MUST LEAVE!!!"
said one of the attended pilot as he is the last subordinate hasn't goes to the escape pot.
"don't worry about me talor.. a captain must complete his duty.. go leave.. I can't just leave the sword to our victorious enemy without a fight"
he said as he push the subordinate to his own escape pot and eject him out of that ship. he activate auto battle mode on the ship land waste everything that ship got on ever enemy that tried to breach the deck.
but not long the ammunition also out and never shot anchors to the ship pulling and forcing the union ship to stay still. as the enemy finally reach tp the control room. the other two captain from the cultist ship arrived.
"well well what we have here.. the infamous captain ryzack the great ship captain serving the remnants of the union empire.. at last you fall after you forgotten your place among the lower race.."
one the captain enemy speaks. captain ryzack didn't replied he raised his hand and suddenly auto system activated, the enemy troop and their captain locked inside of the control room with him.
"you should have be more careful went it comes to.. to fighting against the union battleship captain!!"
he said as he rush and push a button close to him cause the union ship to create nano expansion from the generator ship, eradicating every single particle that existed close to the explosion killing all of them at once in mere spark of the light.

"CAPTAIN!!" scream and cries of all other escaped crew members of the union. the flew back to ground and activate the safety beacon to the trigger viromorth troops bringing them back to the HQ. meanwhile in the lost and remained parts of the cultist ship that didn't get caught by the explosion started to fall. among the debris fall a sword to the unknown ground somewhere undetected and lost forever.

few more years later somewhere at Black Raven laboratory and expansion technology guild facility a boy were raised by seventeen scientist. this boy were thought by all means of necessary knowledge about the world and their ways of religious. prayers, clothing, behaving and even reason for being alive. kiroro is his name. a failed subject by the old accident of his birth. he killed three platoon army and the head director of his subject but he was saved by one particular bishop of the cultist member. kiroro was placed into full secure and fully isolated from anyone even from other subjects.
"until we learn about the failure and weak part of this subject.. we mustn't let our guard down.. because he is truly precious to the late director and his project.. is our legacy"
said the next director leader whom taken over this project. one man came with fully armoured in magnificent carves at it words of ancients of dark gods.
"empress kayla.. we need you at the ceremony for this evening"
the new director responds and leaves with the knight.
"i place my trust you shall handle this boy with care.. for he shall be our greatest weapon to end the union once and for all"

as she leaves kiroro look at the one side tinted window as he felt the eyes watching him is gone. he take a seat lay against the glass wall while holding a teddy bear once gifted by the old director that raised him. he cried missing the director grace and warmth. after years separated from any life form and he was considered contained and safe but the higher ranks still have doubts but they need to assured his loyalty by presenting him to the bishop and counsellor of the cultist for next level approval. he learn so much made him so smart but very gentle and cautious around with human. his loyalty seems to be in high standards and he only choose to trust and stayed loyal with the old director instead to whom the only person he knew about. the workers wears hazard suits and armoured tripled to take him out of his containment chamber for transportation. passing all other subjects that stayed there. the others shouts and feared of him, some show horrendous act by cursing, spitting, banging the wall and more others showing how much they hated him for being existed. he only look down as he have no idea whats that about.
"keep you head down.."
one of the workers push his head down to avoid making eyes contact with other failed subjects.
as soon he step outside of that laboratory he feel for the first time in his long 16 years imprisoned inside of those iron walls, the first rain drop. he shocked by it almost trigger the alarm as distressed but soon calmed down as the guards realized its just a normal reaction of a kid reacting to rain. he smiles and look at the dark clouds and asked.
"can i stay here for a bit"
his captain in charged of the transportation agrees to give him 5 minutes to enjoys the rain. some workers felt joyed as they see a bright smiles shine from his face as they first saw a baby walking for the first time.
kiroro reach his arm high to sky reaching the rain hailing on him. be breath in the intoxicated air but in sense of freedom and comfort of space. then the guards move him into a ship in which transported to spaceship. there kiroro once again wears more chains and prison helmet preventing him to see or sense anything during the flight. the captain came and peek from the peeking door.
"is it true that the last director didn't give you any freedom?.. not even get a chance to step outside?"
kiroro laughed even with full closed helmet he stare at the captain direction knowing exactly where and whom is talking to him.
"no silly... my father.. always wanted me to be freed.. is the new director wanted me to be in prison.. you have idea of how and who he is.." kiroro face down again waiting for the arrival. the captain felt guilt for asking as himself can't help or lighten the burden of this selfless kid in his ship. soon they arrived at their destination. The Hall of god crown, this is the central city of the cultist empire and also their trending company's headquarters. among the city lies the academy of pride. here where kiroro will stayed to be studied his moral and his acceptance to the community and social skill be tested among those others subject that has passed currently serving, learning and adapted to the society norms. as kiroro take his step into the academy a number of people sense his dangerous presence and all that fear him immediately walks off trying to stay as far as they can from him, while the strongest and titled people stand at the yard watching him from the windows of the entrance.
"well well prime principal... it seems the foulest one has arrived.. he smelled death.."
said the vice principal to the principal as both looking over kiroro from the entrance lock tower.
"i can sense.. your fear agito.."
said the principal mocking the vice principal agito.
"well so do you mistress white"
both felt the pressure of kiroro walking into the school. step by step as killing and devouring aura expanding taking over and dominating every single being within the parameters and as long as its on his sight. meanwhile the actual expression of kiroro is shy and feeling embarrassed being watching by the great people whom he didn't know yet. he even too shy to raised his head until the president of the school take a step infront of him.
"welcome to academy of pride.. kiroro sector dead subject.. class name rainkeeper"
kiroro raised his head to see who is talking to him. from the boot he raise his view to the head.
"hello i am ascian the third.. i am your president.." ascian speak introducing herself to kiroro. the guards leaves kiroro to ascian immediately and flew away along with the transportation ship.
"alright now they are gone.. why not i take you for a tour around the school?"
kiroro still blurred by the situation agrees to followed as he has nothing in mind of doing. the principal ordered the vice principal to keep an eye on kiroro before vanishing from the clock tower.
meanwhile as the president speak proudly and cheerfully, the other higher ranks student watches in disgust and jealousy as they heard rumors of kiroro but for him to be close with the president triggers their hatred even more toward him. some glared him, some speak ill of him as they didn't know he could hear them all but choose to not doing anything the president shocked by how obedient and quiet kiroro is which is the opposite from the rumor actually sounds. she pull kiroro to her face and look deeply at his head.
"no barcode anyway on sight.. but yet you act like a robot?.. whats wrong little raven?"
"little raven?"
"yes little raven.. i like the sound of that.. and it suits you.."
kiroro didn't argued and proceed to followed her. block after blocks of buildings introduced finally she arrived at the boys dormitory where she will left kiroro to rest until the faculty that assigned kiroro will contact him.
"well thats all for now.. and don't be shy to asked if you in need of my assistant.. my office and my colleagues will be just behind the boys and girls dormitory.. good seeing you kiroro and good luck"
she reach her hand to hand shake, kiroro shyly raised his hand but with hype she grabs his hand made him shake hands. she also realized how soft and warm kiroro hand is as almost she couldn't tell how normal and human kiroro actually is. she left him with confusion. kiroro walked into the dorm corridor and see all the boys that was peeking hides back into their room avoiding him. he passed someone also about to enter a room. that guy whispers.
"just Because the president likes you.. doesn't mean you will fit in as the others murderer"
the guy rushed and enter his room. kiroro look at that guy room without feeling hate, he clenched his hand holding back the guilt of the past then proceed to enter his room which room 146 at the edge of the corridor.
kiroro take himself a moment to breath in the room, as he enjoys the moment of silence from all the ill eyes and words of others that he yet couldn't stop hearing and sensing from every direction. he sit at the side of the bed and see his uniform, and clothing already prepared in place.
he take off his prison cloth exchange to the given sleeping cloths and properly lay down at his bed locking his fingers together facing the ceiling then tries to sleep. suddenly he was brought to the dream world but the one he didn't recognized in any memory as he was in Bright place, a beautiful view of sky as clear and glorious and surrounding him beautiful earth flowers, fantasy flowers and even strange but unique flowers. he walked and walked as he walked some more he started to sprint and then run, he run, he run as he felt freedom reminding him about the rain he felt few hours ago. he enjoyed the moment spin around laughing and smiling. then the cloud turn dark and the flowers disappears as a robot as height of 200 meter standing infront of him. this robot has a shape of humanoid but possessed wings made of steel and silver mixing together creating this mesmerizing grey colour but most of part of this robot are dark metallic steel colour. it has a face but covered by the metallic structure glossing like a mirror showing only three pairs of small lights as its eyes staring deeply into him. a mark of alphabets written on his left ribcage steel writes 'Black Bird'
kiroro reach his hand to touch the mark but kiroro awaken already by the alarm next to his bed. surprised to realize he has only been sleeping for an hour, he reach to the clock alarm sound and its coming from a touched phone blasting alarm which a call coming from a name called Ashley.
"hello?" he answer.
"ahh sorry to interrupt you mister kiroro.. i am the guard of this dormitory name is ashley.. and the principal wishes to meet you.. no for urgent matters.. please at your best behavior and used the student outfit.. ok bye"
kiroro dressed up as ordered and goes to the guard room for directions of the principal office. after harsh treatment from the guard for directions, kiroro at last arrived at the principal office that has very distinguish brown colour door. from outside kiroro can smell blood and flowers. he felt confused but proceed to knocked anyways. a women voice premitted him to enters. as kiroro step inside, in one second he felt waves of blood and flowers waving through him. he felt the pressure but nothing actually happening in the real front. Amish of hat waves of blood, kiroro raise his hand and requested.
"can you stop doing that.. its annoying"
the principal realize he didn't flinched from his place and in relax. she confirmed kiroro oddity by being not completely human. principal then speaks.
"sorry about that buddy.. i am prime principal white.. call me Mistress white that is my rank and my title... and sorry for test you.. you see i have very strict orders from the chief of academy and also the third bishop of the black raven religion.. that we will not receive anymore students as all life experiment subjects meant to be exterminated.. but you . you are the last new student presumably by the new director and also the second and first bishop.."
kiroro standing listening to miss white complaining, he begun to unbuttoned his left arm shirt and show miss white his code number.
"yes hello mistress white.. i am kiroro code rainkeeper .. the arsenal of the previous last director.. and yes i am the last.. as my mark suggested.."
written at his arm six numbers and one word written 'DeAd' the principal turn to silences as she knew those that have codes at their arms are not like other subjects that has code on their forehead or eyes this subject were treated harsher and more weapon then human.
"take a seat kiroro.."
she order him to seat as she was shocked by this new student she just received.
"tell me.. why are you here?"
"I don't know.. the new director wishes me to be under moral and save to be used for the empire.. but wouldn't it be better if I don't be human at all?.. a tool is my purpose.. so if you asked me why?.. I don't have any purpose or reasons to compile for myself"
she felt furious from this selfless answers, she slammed her hand at the table and look deep at kiroro emotionless eyes.
"That's.. thats just not human answer.."
she take deep breath and exhale calmly then take kiroro hands pressing her and kiroro hands to kiroro own chest.
"feel that beating?.. thats your heart.m you possess one.. that means you have your own life to keep and your own choices to make.. YOU BORN TO BE ALIVE AND FEEL IT ALL"
kiroro still in the lost, as he didn't understand her words as he never was told or teach for this emotions. she grab kiroro by the shoulders and said.
"it seem i have understand my purpose.. I WILL ENSURE YOU WILL LEARN ALL THAT ITS TAKE TO BE HUMAN!!"
she smiles then she realizes kiroro didn't smiles back so with her pointing fingers she stretch kiroro cheeks to forced him to smile.
"if you feel something interesting or happy.. you smile.. same goes if someone else smiling at you.. thats how we show thankfully and grateful to be occupying their time to be happy"
she said, kiroro felt astounded by this new knowledge. so he forced himself smile infront of her mad her feel a bit awkward and said.
"maybe you should trained yourself to do that"
kiroro nodded as agrees happily to that advice. then the principal gives him few subjects to learn to adapted into the Society norm. she didn't share the information about the teacher because she hasn't decided someone strong enough or gentle enough to be patient and kind for kiroro. she took all night to figure out who, then she started to open her lower cabinet where the new teachers were and she found one a girl retired military commander at young age because of her eyes were blinded during war. she read this woman file and smiles.
"this one will do"
