Colors of the Universe : Indigo (宇宙の色 Book I)

《 Chapter 19 - Scars from the past 》

TENSHI'S POV

The whole world stopped before my eyes as soon as he said that. I remembered something... but different. It was a woman's voice saying the same words Aito just did. Is he serious or does he mean it in a different way.

"A-Aito...? " I asked

He hugs me tighter before I could even say something.

"Don't worry. I don't care if you don't feel the same way but please... promise me you'll stay with me..." he said
"I..."

I couldn't say anything at all. It's not that I don't like him. I thought of him as a friend this whole time. Even if I still thought I was the opposite gender, that's all it was, A friend.

Someone knocks at the door and said something. It was Kakusareta.

"Guys, you need to hurry up, our Team's next to moving out." she said
"Moving out?" I asked as I let go of Aito's hug
"O-oh! Yeah! All of us were ordered to move out and switch to a new Academy. Since Fuji was in your room that means they know where the Academy is already so we have to move places for safety purposes" Aito said as he wipes his tears.
"Shit. I have to hurry then." I said as I pack up my items as well and got ready to move out.

I packed up my things and I was ready. I hid the Notebook Fuji gave me so nobody would ask me about it.

When we arrived to the new Academy, it was smaller and looked older. Like the Academy we stayed at, it was also underground. The Academy we stayed at looked like it was abandoned since our time but this one just really looks like it was abandoned since the normal human race. The dorms looked the same but smaller and me and Aito still had the biggest room out of all the students.

It was night time when me and my teammates were done unpacking. When we gathered in our training room, Kagaku suggested all of us to go to the Ancient Store to chill. We arrived there and felt tired unlike usual.

"WHYYY AM I SOOO TIREDDD" Kagaku shouted
"Well... Isn't it more far now since we moved?" Ishi asked
"W-well the Ancient Store is still somehow n-near since we didn't move far from the Academy, we just headed the opposite direction of it, close to the Fox Lake." Mikasa answered
"Fox Lake?" I asked
"Y-yeah... the Lake before you arrive at the hill where the Academy is located, that Lake its called the Fox Lake since they said that there are many Evolved Foxes there hanging arround." Mikasa answered
"Evolved Fox???" I asked
"It's like a normal Fox but evolved since they were affected by the chemicals Marielle made" Owari answered
"Animals can be affected with the chemicals!?!" I asked
"W-well yes but o-only some o-of them. Most A-animals that were a-affected were rumored to be Mammals, b-but that's h-how the Research was" Mikasa answered
"Can we stop talking about that thing Marielle did? Were going to war and this is what we talk about?!?!" Ishi said
"Then do we do plans?" Ki asked
"NO!!! I MEANT LIKE... NEVERMINDDD!!!" Ishi disagreed
"Ahhh! I know! Share our life stories?" Kagaku asked
"Ohhh that's interesting" Kakusareta said
"How many of you wrote your 'Last Words' on the letter?... or even wrote a letter?" Owari asked

Mikasa, Kagaku, Ishi, and Kakusareta raised their hands.

"Why didn't the others write one?" Owari asked
"Me and my brother never knew who our parents were" Ki said
"How about you Owari?" Kakusareta asked
"Well... my Parents died during the war and that's when the Sakerarenais took me in... sooooo I can't really write a letter to someone" Owari answered
"How about you Aito?" Kakusareta asked
"My father won't care..." Aito answered
