The Field

~Shika~

My hair was braided over my left shoulder and I was dressed in light grey shirt and black combat pants with ankle boots to match. I was all dressed up for my supposed mission with the lieutenants but there had no notification, no confirmation.

There had been no word so far concerning my personalized weapon or the mission I was supposed to join today, meaning I was still in the barracks. Still there and extremely bored.

I'd been sitting in the room since yesterday with nothing to do. I guess being with the lieutenants for so long meant that the commanders on this end forgot to prepare a timetable for me. Not like I really wanted one, without one it was all the better, because it gave me time to go exploring around the place.  And since exploring was the only thing I could do, I skipped all precaution and headed straight to the point.

The unnamed room.

It showed up on the map as three question marks, and the last time I came here, I honestly didn't appreciate the way Cameron diverted me away.

Making me fall asleep like that. How could he?!

Since most people were busy with training or anything like that, and thankfully Jadis was out on mission, I had no one to stop me!

-Except me-

Why?

-Why what?-

Why must you torture me so?

-I just want to warn you that it you go in there unprepared, you'll have a repeat of that horrible poem going through your head again...-

Wasn't that your fault?

-No. That was all thanks to the stupid implant inside your neck! There's no way I'd sound like that-

She did have a point. That definitely didn't sound like her at all, it bordered along the lines of a very boring recording.

A very painful, boring, robotic recording.

"They came with their weapons of living destruction. And tore and plundered through the earth.

Death they brought to every land and they fed Hades by the hand.

In frantic search they fought on still, until in crimson the land did fill. And as half lay down their arms for best, the other half conquered the rest..." I murmured to no one in particular before deciding to ask Rukia.

What do you think it meant?

-I don't know, figure it out Sherlock. But I do know that you gotta stop speaking out loud like that before people think your crazy. Not that you already aren't...-

My gosh shut up!

-'mkay-

I sighed deeply out of frustration, Rukia could be a handful sometimes.

Looking up, I saw that I was in front of a familiar door. Checking my panel to see if I was correct I smiled at the screen. When I walked to the door to open it, a scanner formed from where the doors handles would've normally been. It looked like... a handprint scan.
