The Beauty of Sol (Shinra x reader)

Chapter 9

"We're back." Obi said while loosening his tie. The had just returned from their captains' meeting. [Y/n] was still a little shocked to know that it is a possibility that she is the daughter of the great Sol. 'Then who was that woman...?' [Y/n] thought. There were still holes in her memories. But, [Y/n] was close to finding out something, and she could feel it. "[Y/n]-neesan..." Iris called, snapping [Y/n] out of her thoughts, "Are you alright?" She asked.

[Y/n] smiled. "I'm fine. I'll go make some tea." [Y/n] said. "Maki-san already went to make some tea." Tamaki said. "Oh..." [Y/n] said, "I...need to clear my head." She left the office. "[Y/n]!" [Y/n] heard Obi call out to her. [Y/n] stopped and turned around. "Are you alright?" He asked, "You've been quiet since we left the Cathedral."

"I want to be a Fire Soldier." [Y/n] said, "The Evangelist is after me, and so far, I've been captured twice after escaping. I need to practice protecting myself, and hopefully, I fill the holes in my memories."

Obi gave a serious look and nodded. "You'll begin tomorrow." Obi said. [Y/n] nodded at him. "Thank you."

Soon the sun was setting, and Shinra returned from the Amaterasu. Obi held a meeting. "The Special Fire Force is going after the Evangelist. Let's start by looking for clues in the data from all thee fires that have happened so far." Obi explained.

"This is just a fraction of it all." Hinawa said while placing his hand on a huge pile of paper, "Find any detail that may relate to the White-Clad or [Y/n]'s blood, no matter how minute."

"The Evangelist and the White-Clad are artificially causing human combustion for some purpose, and it all leads back to [Y/n]'s blood. We cannot allow a single one of them get away with this. I'll leave it to you." Obi said. [Y/n] clutched her fists together. Everyone looked at [Y/n] and Shinra, worryingly. [Y/n] nodded.

As the soldiers worked, they noticed Shinra's spaced-out look. [Y/n], who wanted to help with the investigation, noticed this as well from her seat next to him. Something happened to him when he as at the Amaterasu. Shinra sighed, and everyone went back to work. Arthur looked up with an exhausted look.

"Hey, Shinra, hurry up and find the lead." He said, and Shinra glared. "All the mental heavy lifting is making you pale. So keep it up until it kills you." Shinra said with a smirk.

They continued until nightfall, and Arthur looked near death. "Like watching a candle in the wind. Good." Shinra said with a smirk. Maki stood up. "Let's take a little break." She said.

"Huh? Arthur is on the verge of dying. Let's keep going!" Shinra said and his stomach growled. [Y/n] giggled while Shinra blushed. "I'll go make supper." [Y/n] said as she stood up and walked out to the kitchen.

Hinawa looked up for a moment after [Y/n] left. "Shinra, you're helping." He said. "Huh? O-Okay." Shinra said and got up.

As he walked to the kitchen, Shinra began to hear singing. "Love, can we meet again soon in the bluest of skies. Where a tomorrow waits for you and I."

Shinra's eyes widened at the song. He recognized it. Shinra peeked into the kitchen and saw [Y/n] singing that song. Shinra finally remembered where he heard that song, and where he recognized [Y/n] from.

Shinra walked around the Academy with a nervous smile prominent on his face. "Look, Kusakabe is here." The people around him talked. Everyone talked about him. No one had anything good to say.

"Mother-killer."

"I heard he killed his brother, too."

"He's the devil."
