The Central Military Base

15:10

And so, here she is, sleeping in her room of the apartment in which she lives, before waking up to her alarm that goes on and beginning her day. As usual, just like all the others, she does the morning tasks, like cleaning herself and organising her schedule of the day. Then, when she got dressed up, she leaves her apartment and begins her journey towards the Central Base.

She explained many times in the past, and probably she will do it again in the future. She is a former soldier of that base, before she left after a year of work and joined the Southeast Base where her friends went. But she never really said what exactly made her take this decision, she just said that she despites the people there for being too lazy. Then, when she joined the Southeast Base, she proved her worth and also changed her name, later on becoming one of the Officers of the base.

When she arrives at the base, she has a moment of hesitation of stepping inside the building, but she did it in the end, where she found herself with one of the Officers of the Central Base accompanying her towards the location of the Leader. Of course the Officer knows her, he is a former colleague of hers. As a consequence, he wishes to speak with her too.

[AV4R0]-It really has been a while, Miss ADIN4, hasn't it? I didn't see you in our base for some good years now.

[KYR4]-I guess...

[AV4R0]-You still enjoy talking less, huh? Oh, then you didn't change that much from how Master said. So? How is life going for you now? I believe you joined a different base, right?

[KYR4]-...Yeah. I'm a member of the Southeast Base now. Even an Officer.

[AV4R0]-Really? Oh, then you sure are close to the Leader there if he chose to give you this title. I believe he is a kid too, just like you. Am I right?

[KYR4]-...

She seems pretty annoyed, as the man gets on her nerves quickly.

[AV4R0]-Hahah, oh, I'm just kidding, Adi! No need to do that face now! I congratulate you for achieving this role then. Knowing the responsibilities that come with this title and all, I assume that you had a lot to do, huh? Did you manage to handle it?

[KYR4]-...Yeah.

[AV4R0]-Oh? Then good job! I also heard that you are a member of the Council too, no? The Officer present in the meetings?

[KYR4]-Yes, I am.

[AV4R0]-Heh, what a surprise! Oh, you wouldn't even know how much I've struggled to become one too! But for some reason, Master doesn't wish to let me assist him.

Yet again, she is annoyed by his responses, even beginning to whisper what she has in mind...

[KYR4]-...Of course he doesn't allow you if you do nothing all day, AV4R0.

...before simply avoiding to let the man hear it.

[AV4R0]-Hm? Did you say something?

[KYR4]-...No. I didn't say anything.

[AV4R0]-Okay then... Oh, I actually have a few questions to ask you too! Since you are a member of the Southeast Base and all, maybe I can get a few answers from you! Like, you know the ruler, right? Since He works around that base. Do you think tha--

[KYR4]- --Just get me to Mr. EM3RY, AV4R0. I do not wish to speak with you right now. I have work to do after all.

[AV4R0]-...O-Oh, alright then.
