~Earlier~

Shortly after warning Sada, while she was running back inside the building, Kira panted lightly as she held her unconscious daughter close to her chest.

"Sara....Please be okay!" Kira thinks to herself as tears threaten to appear in her eyes, showing how much she was worried about her.

After hurrying down the hall and entering in the bedroom, her daughter and her friends were staying in, Kira jerked the blanket aside and gently laid Sara down on the bed.

Checking her over for any critical injuries, Kira gently tilted Sara's head to the right side, only to see it bruised.

"Oh thank god..." Kira sighs to herself in relief. "If it was bleeding, it would be impossible to restore any amount of blood that's been lost."

Knowing her daughter's gonna be okay now, Kira headed downstairs and grabbed a dry wash cloth along with an ice pack from the freezer, before returning and laying them down underneath Sara's head, where the bruise was.

Sitting herself down afterwards, Kira rested a hand to her forehead, immediately recalling what her original self's last words were, before her death.

"AI Kira? I have a very important objective to give you, now that Sara's born...You must never allow anything bad to happen to Sara.

I want her to be watched over by you. Even when I die, you must continue looking after her in my stead. She is my greatest treasure." Her original self's words echoed in the young AI's mind.

"Professor...Why did it all have to happen this way?" She sighs to herself next, as she shut her eyes for a moment, before opening them back up and looking over at Sara.

"If only you got to see your baby girl grow up and reach her teens right now..."

Thinking about what happened to her original self next, really broke the young AI's heart.

She may not know much about humanity and the emotions all humans share, but, she still feels like she's a human too, for her to understand what it means and what it feels like to lose someone you're really close to.

Like a friend or a sibling.

Sniffing a little, Kira wiped the tears from her eyes, keeping herself mindful about water being incompatible with electronics and machines.

While waiting for Sara to gain consciousness, Kira reached over and pressed a button that was hidden well behind the wall of her left ear, pulling up a hologram in front of her.

"Computer, scan Sara over. There's something else I want to check, other than her medical stats." Kira says, her voice changing to more of a robotic tone, as her irises glowed and changed to the color yellow again.

"Initiating scanning process..." Her computer speaks up.

In less than a second, Kira started to holographically scan Sara's body over, by slowly looking up and down at her.

"Scanning complete. Terastal phenomenon has been detected. Activity seems to be gradual but eventually overtime, will start to take effect." The computer announced, as Kira's eyes changed back to their normal ruby red color.

"How long?" Kira asked, feeling unsettled and worried.

"Calculating estimated time....." She heard her computer respond, before Kira waited.

Then a pinging sound was made.

"In the past, as of right now, the estimated time will be within 24 days. In the present, it's more than that." Her computer continues.
