'Friends' Kenta thought dully, he turned to the small cameras against the ceiling. 'The sound of that almost gives me hope' he turned back to their food and then the water. 'But my hope for anything other than my work died a long time ago...'

Kashi hummed grabbing a few cups of ramen before returning to their table.

"Here you go," he said dropping them and taking his seat.

"To our friendship," Kenta said raising his glass of water.

Kashi grinned taking his.

"Alright!"

They cheered.

Level 10: Training Facility

"You are all gathered today... to discuss the war plan" General Anzai began in a serious tone.

The bio-genetics seated before him, on the metal floor, legs crossed. While Shino stood beside him, standing upright, hands behind his back.

They waited in anticipation for what the plan might be. Hiro gulped hard.

"The Prime Minister and I have decided to build a team with our strongest bio-genetics solely with the target of taking down the Queen Kaiju".

They froze at his words.

"A team?" Ren said as his blue eyes trembled.

Whispers filled amongst the bio-genetics.

"As you all know the bracelet you're all wearing was invented by Engr. Kazuya enables you to tell what levels you're in and also when you jump, think of it as a monitor"

Homura checked him, sighing, the contents of his level on the tiny bracket he wore, even with the training this past few days he was still in level 1.

"So the teams are gonna be consisting with those of higher level, sir?" Emiko asked with a raised hand.

Anzai shook his head negatively.

"No it won't, it will all depend on the system... Prime Minister Kiyoshi and I have decided not to do the selection ourselves to avoid impartiality" he said sternly.

"System?" Daiki asked puzzled.

Anzai nods, he snaps his finger, a ledge went down behind him, against the wall, it came online as an interface computer.

The names of the 24 bio-genetics came up in rows.

"This is a system designed by Engr. Kazuya... as you can see your names are all drafted out in random" he began.

"Like a pickup game of random numbers, this system will do that"

"So our names its gonna be picked by the system, what if a lower level gets picked?" Ryu asked.

"The system is not just designed to pick random names but also by capability and not by levels" Anzai explained.

"So the target isn't our levels because it's not what defines us, but our capability and potential we have to face a threat... in order words not the strongest level but the strongest" Ten said rubbing his chin.

"Exactly," Anzai said with a nod.

Whispers filled amongst the bio-genetics.

'A system designed to filter out the strongest... not the ones with the strongest level?' Hiro thought gulping hard. 'Aren't there the same thing?'

"I'm sure you all may be wondering why we chose to draft it out as that" Anzai began.

All attention fell on his back.

"Because all of you have the strongest or weakest level... but still not have what it takes to face a greater threat, am I right?"

Everywhere fell silent.

Daiki gulps hard knowing his words were true. His gaze drift to his level, level 3 but still, he was scared as hell if he was picked.

"Rather than form a team of strongest levels, it's better to form a team of the strongest and bravest. I'm not trying to limit any of you in any way, I speak of this as experience... so many are taken to war because they hold the title soldiers but in the end, they are sent to their demise without thinking it through. In my time special strike teams are determined by potential, strength, and the willpower to get it done" he explains.

He searched each of their faces, with his eyes.

'Potential, strength, and the willpower to get it done... I see it now' Hiro thought with a tightened fist, he raised his head as his blind gaze fell on the system, seeing it in structures. 'The system is still just a system and with the names are drafted out... they already know what we're capable of... General Anzai spent a lot of time training us, he already knows the answer to this... but with the help of the system it helps to pick it up out of impartiality.' his eyes narrowed.

"Now if you all have come to an understanding... then shall we behind," Anzai says as he and Shino turned to the widescreen.

The bio-genetics gaze fell on it too.

The names started scaling like binary codes.

The Bio-genetics waited in anticipation as it did, each their hearts slamming a loud beat of who might be picked, since the system wasn't working according to their levels, it only just raised the anticipation more.

Ten gulps hard, sweating ferociously. 'Which is it gonna be?'

Level 19: Scientist\\\\ Doctors Level

Doctor's Lodge

*Banging On Door*

"Hey Kashi... are you in there... Kashi?"

*Sighs*

"Is he not in there or what?"

"Hey in case you're in there, you're needed at the lab"

*Walks Away*

Inside Kashi's Room

Kashi grips on the sheets tightly, he groaned, his eyes shut close tightly, his body drenched in sweat, the shirt that he wore and pants, gulped to his body. He didn't feel so good, he wondered if he was coming down with something, he couldn't explain it, his body wasn't seating well with him, he was also shivering at an unknown cold... there were heaters everywhere so he wondered where it came from.

He growled in pain seating up, on his bed, his feet placed on the ground. Suddenly he held his chest in pain like it was being tightened by something and then he coughs, hard, covering his mouth.

He took a deep breath, his weak gaze gasp fell on the palm he used in covering his mouth.

"Blood" he murmured with widened eyes of horror, his hand trembled.

What was happening to him?
