Control Tower

"The brackets around their wrist will keep them from using their powers... but i still don't get why though" Touka said with a skeptical look turning to face Anzai with her seat, away from the controls.

He was busy smoking, a habit she had come to know he has.

"I thought the main purpose was to fortify their abilities" she adds in reason.

"And that you're wrong" Anzai said in a simple tone, his hands behind his back standing upright like a soldier.

"First we must build their physical strength, then their powers, the only way to adjust them both, so that they don't rely on impulse" he explained.

"It will be a part of them rather than a different part of them, the act of controlling" Touka said in realization.

"Exactly... besides before all this... this kids were ordinary kids who were just growing up and had nothing to do with the military world... so we must groom them in" Anzai said smirking.

"Your 20..  Tori" Anzai asked through the small comm he wore in his ear.

***

The Stimulation 

Tori was inside, observing the Bio-genetics closely from the top of a tree, not minding the rain. He taps on his comm.

"They are showing quick adjusts, but the lead are Shino, Sand, Kaneki, Sumi, Mizuki and Yuki, they are showing excellent forms of physical strengths" he explained.

"I see, then we will work on the same training aspect tomorrow, so that they break their limits" Anzai said.

"But there's one more thing, out of everyone there's one falling behind" Tori said sternly.

***

Control Tower

"Kimura Hiro" Anzai said sighing as the footage showed to where he was.

On the screen, Hiro was far behind from the others, way behind, as he struggled to keep up while falling to the mud floor countless times.

Touka just watch with sad eyes.

Anzai sighs heavily.

***

The Stimulation 

Hiro fell flat on his face, the white leather material around his eyes staining with mud.

"Dammit!" He cursed while slamming his bandaged fist on the ground hand, he raised his head, sensing the others auras, they were far ahead almost reaching the target.

His head hung down as he frowned, his fist clenching hard.

*Footsteps Approaching* 

He froze when he sensed someone coming, the boots stops in front of him, he raised his head sensing Yuki's white aura.

Yuki?... he thought she was far ahead the others, did she turn back because of him?

"Are you okay?" She asks squatting in front of him.

"I could carry your load for you" she offered.

Hiro's teeth clenched hard at her words, she doesn't really think before talking.

"I don't need your help" Hiro said rising to his feet as did Yuki.

"Guys wait up, wait for me" Homura said breathing heavily as he came from behind.

Hiro froze on hearing his voice, he thought he was only the one left behind.

Homura got to where they were, his eyes widen in pure horror.

"I DON'T WANNA BE LAST!" he shouts running ahead in full speed while stumbling multiple times.

Hiro sweat drop behind his head.

Hours Later

Level 17: Bio-genetics Level 

Room Hall 

The lights dimmed down, everyone was fast asleep and tired.

Ten tussles and turn on his bed while yawning tired, he paused for a minute as he sat up with a start, looking around.

"Hiro?" He said.

He was sure Hiro was here hours ago, where could he be?

***

Level 10: Training Facility 

The stimulation still on, showing someone was still in it.

Hiro took harsh breath as he ran as fast as he could, the bag he had on still drew him back but he didn't care, he had to meet up on time, he had to be faster, he had to keep moving no matter what.

Yuki was behind him at a lower pace. 'Why?' She thought with shaky eyes. 'Why keep moving?'. She didn't understand why, it was obvious he was a weakling, it was obvious he wasn't compatible like the others, it was obvious he wasn't used to any harsh training or treatment... but yet he kept moving, his body didn't heal like the others did so every injury they sustained that healed after their training didn't for Hiro it was still with him, but yet... he kept moving.

'Kimura Hiro' she thought with puzzled eyes. 'What kind of person are you?'.

In a few distance inside the stimulation, Anzai was present, observing closely with an unreadable expression.

***

Hours Later 

The stimulation off now showing the regular white hall, Hiro took harsh breath, he laid flat on the floor, his body numb and trembling, he was sweating profusely, his temperature high and unstable, he was unconscious and weak.

Yuki placed a small towel she dip in water on his forehead to at least calm his rising temp.

She moved to his leg pulling his boots off, she froze when she saw his blistered feet, it wasn't healing and she was sure it sent aching pain to his body.

"Hiro" she said with worried eyes facing him, even in spite of it, he completed the training.

Anzai approached them with unreadable expression.

Yuki turned him.

"General Anzai?"

***

Level 11: Medical Facility 

"He needs some rest to recover, his legs will heal in due time" Touka said.

Hiro was on the bed asleep, Yuki was seated beside him watching him.

"In due time you say" Anzai began in a serious tone, facing her.

"The only reason I'm training the bio-genetics ten times harder than i would any soldier twice their age is because I'm confident they will heal and not have the aftermath of their training... but Hiro in due time?" Anzai said pissed.

Touka gulps hard at his words.

"That bandages from his hand are from when he stayed up for three nights punching a bag" he points.

"Any other bio-genetics who engaged in such to meet up with the others will heal like it was nothing, more like a simple sport. And that black bruise around his stomach is from where I hit him when he landed a blow on me, the rest of the bio-genetics I beat up don't even have a scratch left from the training" he adds as his eyes beamed dangerously.

"Tell me Dr. Touka" he said pissed.

"Is there something I need to know?!".
