Mitsuba POV
As the truck stopped in front of the airport, we get other looks front standing by soldiers. Other squads in the Moon Demon Company stared, probably wondering what kids were doing here.
Waylon jumped out next to me and scanned the field. "Their meeting at the dome, let's hurry." He said, heading ahead of all of us.
I nod and hurry after him, the others at my heel. Sometimes it feels like he's the real leader here. Seeing that he has the most experience in the military, only a little, but it still counted.
Even after before, when we were heading to Shinjuku, we totally discarded him as dangerous, he was a nice guy if you close. I-I need to stop complimenting him.
I think this as our squad gets into the crowd of soldiers gathering. Guren walks into the stage in front of them, standing out as our leader.
"Hey, shut it!" Guren shouted. "Now your all asking yourselves, what are your orders? I'll tell you them... we're here to kill a number of nobles in Nagoya." He exclaimed.
I could see Waylon visibly flinch, his eyes going wide a bit. What was with him? On the other hand, Yu looked excited to kill nobles. This wasn't going to be a walk in the park.
"The squads will be split up into groups, and hunt each noble down." Guren said, pointing out a few squads that would be working together.
"And I'll have Shinoa squad and Narumi Squad, head to take down Lucal Wesker, a noble near the middle of the city." Guren called, and after he called the rest, everyone began to meet up with the other squads.
Soon we were approached by a young man, looking to a bit older than all of us. His hair was a dark brown color, tied into a pony tail.
"Looks like I'll be looking after you under Guren' orders. Don't make me look after a bunch of babies." He said, obviously not that pumped to be working with kids.
Yu looked like he was about to yell and argue, but Waylon stepped forward. "My name is Master Sergeant Waylon Kojima. I'm the highest ranking, but not their leader. Nice to meet you." He said, holding out his hand.
Narumi looked down at the hand. "I'm not gonna trust someone as young as you." He mumbled.
"I'm Seventeen years old. Your not that far off from that by the looks of it." Waylon said, still holding out his hand.
Yu spoke up. "Why the hell should we trust you?"
Narumi fumed a bit. "Punk, I'm nineteen years old! Don't talk like that to your superiors!" He said.
"I'm twenty!" Yu lied, making me think I should whack him over the head to shut him up.
Narumi flinched, but didn't seem to argue... is he that gullible? So he took Waylon's hand and introduced us to his squad.
Waylon stared off into space, his eyes wondered around the warehouse and beyond, towards the city. Now that I think about it, this is his second time going on a mission like this. A mission to take out a single noble.
But I'm sure he'll be fine, he mortally wounded some nobles back in Shinjuku. But no matter how much I try and assure myself that things will be okay, I can't seem to think they will.
Claire POV
Sitting in the office patiently, Mika, Allan and I have been called by the Queen. Mika still seemed to be a bit out of it since the Shinjuku incident.
His family was there, that Yu fellow. Mika has been a great help throughout my time serving the Queen, so I'll help him in any way I can.
Allan grit his teeth. "Where is that loli? Wasn't she supposed to be here by now?" He said with an angry tone. He instead looked over at me and smirked, standing up.
He slowly made his way over to me until he was standing next to me. "Why don't you expel my boredom?" He asked, leaning next to my ear, making me shiver in disgust.
I close my eyes and begin to shake. I don't like this bastard one bit, whenever he gets bored he always does this. And if I snap at him, his family will have my head. They chose me, a non noble, to be the successor to their family, but I couldn't care less about that crap.
Suddenly, Allan is pulled back. Mika stands there, behind Allan with a scary look on his face. "Don't touch her. She doesn't like it." He said with a calm tone.
Allan squinted at him. "What was that? Does it look like I care if she likes it or not?" He spat.
Mika' stance didn't change and his face didn't waver one bit. Allan stared back for along time, until someone else broke the silence.
"What's this? I'm not here for five minutes and this happens?" Krul said, wondering in with a small smile.
Allan shook from Mika' grip and let out a gruff curse, sitting back down in his seat. Mika looked down at me sitting and have me a respectable nod. It seems he trusts me more than I thought he did. That made me a bit happy.
Krul walked to the middle for the table and sighed. "It seems that your next assignment will to be join some nobles in Nagoya." She said, crossing her arms.
Mika looked confused. "Why Nagoya?" He asked.
"The humans have a large force heading there, some of our scouts got a small sight of them. But they could be heading back to Shinjuku, that's more likely." Krul explained, looking down at the map on the table of Nagoya and Shinjuku.
Allan tilted his head. "Then why not send us back to Shinjuku? Isn't there a better chance they'll be there?"
Krul shrugged. "Its just a small gut feeling I have... and my gut feeling is usually right." She mumbled.
I nod and look down at the map. Usually the Japanese Moon Demon Company have been involved with things... meaning I could see Waylon again soon.
I didn't get a chance to talk to him last time. But I did end up seeing him. Why am I so interested in him? Is it because he chose not to kill me and instead saved my life? He treated me as an equal. I've never been treated like that...
Maybe that's why I see him in such a great light. But will he try to kill me if ordered to? Which is more important, keeping his uneasy friendship with me, or his orders from his superiors?
He hates vampires now, to a huge extent... so I don't think I'll know, unless I ask him. Face to face.
(This took a lot longer than I thought to push out. I have a feeling a lot of people are gonna try and burn my house down now... nonetheless, I hope you enjoyed and have a wonderful day!) - MnMs171
PS - If you guys want, if Waylon ends up with Lilith or Mitsuba, I can make Claire x Mika a thing? It's up to you, I got ideas for all of them really.
