2nd Contract | [Video]

[fusedstars]

[Hei appears on the network again, his face looking slightly brighter than it did two weeks ago. Cooking in the kitchen and wandering the tower had done wonders for his spirit, though not a whole lot. He could at least think better again, and recent activity around the tower had managed to remind him of a few things.

 If the festivities are done for now, I would like to call attention back to the tower and the threats it provides regarding certain creatures here. While I hear that death has not much consequence, it is still something I am sure all of you wish to avoid regardless. [And he'll avoid going into detail as to why death should have been a big concern, mainly for mental reasons.]

Therefore, I wish to offer my services as a trainer, to those that are interested. It won't be easy, but within a few weeks, you'll be far more prepared for a fight here than you normally would. For those interested, simply contact me.

I will also be at the cafeteria regularly during lunch and dinner hours to make meals. If you wish to avoid making a hazardous meal and desire for something more edible, you can contact me.

[Always the best ways to gain information, or throw himself in danger. Either way, info of some kind could be gained.]

That is all.

Comments

[fusedstars]

Nothing substantial. However, I do recall you conversing with Yusuke, preventing him from taking on a rival of yours, a man by the name of Ryuji Suguro.

It's your choice whether or not you believe me.

[pinnedbangs]

He's not a man, he's the same age as I am! [Though he won't say it, he really did miss Suguro and all of his other classmates from Cram School.]

Maybe my clone didn't bother talking about me much. ...Or himself. Whatever. [It was a relief. Sort of. He had anticipated Hei to mention his heritage.]

I'll decide later on my own! [DON'T RUSH HIM, GOSH.] ...You know for a clone, you're not acting the part. What do I call you? Hei?

[fusedstars]

I had other matters to attend to aside from socializing with everyone. [He had spent too much time going solo, as well as making sure Lucy was mentally stable. Oh he did pay for that mistake during on trip to Facility 3, a memory he wished to erase.]

Hei will do. As for my reasons, I have them, because I want to stop those that created me.

[pinnedbangs]

I don't really get it, but it sounds like you really are a Frankenstein sort of clone. You know, going against your creator and all that.

[And since there wasn't anything to fear, or be wary of, Rin figured he may as well lower his guard. The clone seemed decent enough. And he needed more allies in this place.]

Okay, Hei, what about those training lessons?

[fusedstars]

They tortured us every week. Of course we rebelled.

[It was a no brainer really, just like how people rebelled here as well.]

You're willing to trust me?

[pinnedbangs]

[The more he hears about this facility, the less he likes it. He hopes its been burned to the ground.]

Sure. I don't see why not. [But if Hei did give him a reason to distrust him, there would be more than just an angry teen to deal with...]

[fusedstars]

Very well. [Though Hei would be keeping a close eye on this kid.] Unfortunately, I don't know the difference in strength between the current you and your clone.

What do you know of fighting so far?

[pinnedbangs]

What's different between me and my clone?

[He does think it's a little cool to have a clone. Then again he has a twin brother. That sort of counted, right? ...UHM] Does street fighting count? I can also use a sword.

[By use a sword, he means slicing everything in sight without any real form. But before he came here he was working with an instructor! He's got the basics down.]

[fusedstars]

I see, then you both are similar, though he relied on his fists for our training sessions. [And he accidentally shocked the poor kid due to the experiment conflicting with his powers.]

At any rate, we'll expand on your hand-to-hand technique.

[pinnedbangs]

[He smacked his fist into his palm. Oh, Rin was more than ready for this!]

Alright then, teach!

[fusedstars]

Tomorrow. Right now, I need to make preparations for a schedule for those that are interested.

[What a way to kill enthusiasm, but he did need to know who he was training, and a list was handy.]

[pinnedbangs]

...Fine. [And to think that he had been more than ready to get back into training.]

When tomorrow?

[fusedstars]

Afternoon. I'll set up an announcement tomorrow once everything is finalized.
