My Futanari Lover!

"Commander..." Violette rubbed her arm. "Does Captain have a family? He mentioned a bit about his parents to me."

"Huh, Nanashi mentioned it to you?" Acer stroked his chin in deep thought. Interesting, I thought he'd never talk about it. "Has he ever told you about his past?"

Violette shook her head in response. Acer stood from his chair and grabbed a photo.

"Nanashi and I... we go way back." He explained. "Back when we were kids, we used to visit each other often. His parents were really sweet. It was fun times."

They knew each other that long, huh? Violette thought. I wonder how Nanashi was as a child.

"Eventually, he and his family had to move out." He continued. "We didn't keep in touch during that time. Maybe he was busy, I figured. But I hadn't heard from him since then."

He moved out...? She sensed this was when things started changing.

"Over a decade had passed, and I joined a hybrid hunting squad." He ruffled his hair. "My first mission was to take over an experimentation facility. One of the first major cases of INValids."

I'm familiar with that. It was around this time Violette and Evelyn became INHumans.

"But... take a guess who I met there." He gazed into her violet eyes. "I met Nanashi... and he was killing every INValid and scientist in plain sight."

"Huh...?" She blinked. He... was at the experimentation facility? Was he experimented with? Is that how he became an INHuman?

"I didn't see the little boy in him." He clenched his fists. "He was an entirely different person. His eyes were devoid of emotion."

That was her impression when she first met Nanashi. I can't imagine how Commander must have felt.

"And yet, I dare called his name and he turned to me, bathed in blood." Memories of that night flashed through his mind. "He... recognized me. For a moment, his eyes showed a glimpse of the little boy I've grown to know and love. He... remembered me."

Violette wondered if Nanashi suffered a memory loss. Most INValids lose all memories after they change.

"I took him with me, and obviously, my commander exiled me from the team." He sighed. "Understandable. I mean, I just brought what'd they call a "monster" to them." And they probably would have run experiments on him.

A monster. Nanashi wasn't a monster to her. I know he isn't one.

"Afterwards, I started my own hybrid-hunting squad where we could coexist with INHumans. The initial idea was that to take down a monster, we had to become monsters of our own."

Violette vividly recalled her first encounter with Nanashi. At the time, INValids turning on each other was unheard of, much less INHumans. It was the first time she had to fight an INHuman like herself. Not a fun time when he tore me from limb to limb.

"And now... here we are, with a bigger team than ever and more INHumans in our ranks."

"Commander..." Violette fidgeted with her fingers. There was still one question left in the dark. "What happened to his... parents?"

"I figured you'd ask that." He stared at the photo in his hands. "They're... not with Nanashi anymore."

"Oh..." She bowed her head. "I'm... so sorry to hear that."

"Honestly, that's not a great answer." He rubbed his temple. "We... don't know what happened to them."

"Were they not at the experimentation facility?" She asked. Just what happened when he moved away? How did he end up at the facility?
