Chapter twelve: Heart of justice

(Y/n) woke up in a hospital bed, she had several ice packs laying on her body. Kaguya was replacing the ones that were warm, the android stood when she saw the patient was awake. "Are you in pain?," the android asked.
"Not at the moment Kaguya-nee.," the female replied, "But thank you."
"There are several inmates who requested to see you.," the android said, "Do you want to see them?"
"Fifteen first.," the cold bodied female replied, "We need to talk."
"I will inform him.," the android said and walked out of the room.
The blue and pink eyed female looked up at the ceiling, it was like this when she woke up after the surgery Elf and the man with the scar did. Shiro was beside her and begging her to wake up.

She was pulled from her thoughts by Jyugo walking in and sitting down, "Hey, you feeling better?"
"Yes, what about you?," (y/n) asked, "Elf still bugging you?"
"Nah. Haven't seen him anymore and I can beat him if he tries to come back.," Jyugo answered.
"Jyugo.," the female said, "I... I..."
She struggled to get the words, "I... I want to know more about what you know about that bastard. The one who did this to us."
"You are asking me about Elf?," the black and red haired male asked, "Well... I know he is a part of me. And can see us because of it."
"He's keeping surveillance of us.," the female said and looked to her hands, "Of course he is. We're his most valuable of subjects. You with your blades and I with my unstudied power."
"That bastard won't get us. Because we're too strong for him.," Jyugo said and held up his hand for her to take then put his pinky out, "Right?"
(Y/n) felt tears on her cheeks and pellets of ice drop from those tears as they froze from her power, she held up her pinky hesitantly and took his.
"We have to stay strong together right? Otherwise he will get us.," the Japanese male said, "You're already strong, we just have to remind each other when we falter. We win, we always will."

(Y/n)'s hand was caught in his. He was so warm.
"Yeah. We are.", the female said back.
"I think that Uno and the others want to see you as well.," Jyugo said, "Want to have some more? Everyone is worried."
"Send them in.," the female said with a smile.
Jyugo got up and walked to the door, "She says that it's okay to come in."
The Japanese male stood aside as Nico ran in and Jumped onto the bed with the female.
The others walked in as well.
"Yukino-chan! Are you okay?," the Small green haired male asked and hugged the female's shoulders, "You fainted so suddenly."
She placed her hand on the male's head, "I'm fine Nico. Are you okay now?"
"Yeah, I have all of my medicine now. That thing you did with your powers was amazing!," the small American teen said happily, "You were like some sort of magical girl amazing."
"Nico, calm down. You could hurt her, she's still recovering.," Uno said and sat down on a stool next to her bed, "But he is right, you did a great job when you were fighting to protect us."
The British male grinned, "You have my thanks, Yukino-chan."
"Get off of her!," Honey scolded, "Shoo, a lady doesn't need riff-raff."

"It's fine Honey.," the female spoke and held the smaller male hugging her shoulders, "He's not hurting anything."
"Are you okay, miss Hana?," Trois asked, "You really pushed yourself past your limit from what Kiji told me."
"I am healing now, Trois. But thank you.," (y/n) said, "But how are Your and Honey's injuries?"
"Mine are not as bad, but Honey's hands and face needed treatment.," the French male said.
"It was thanks to you that we got to Kiji.," (y/n) said with a smile, "You two are so cool."
The two males seemed to puff up in their ego from that.
"How about we have dinner together one day, Hana-chan?," Trois said with a smile and lower lidded eyes. He was making a face that would make women melt.
"No thanks. You two would try to turn it into a date.," the female replied, "It is against the rules to date a patient. Same with you Uno, so please don't ask."
"Dammit.," she heard the British male say.
She placed her hand on the British male's hat, "Uno. You will find the right girl one day."
Trois spoke up, "We are all glad to see you are feeling better, but you need to rest. We'll leave you be for now."
Nico whined but got off of the female, "Bye, Yukino-chan. See you next therapy session I guess.."

"Come on Nico.," Uno said and left with the smaller male.
Honey and Trois politely excused themselves fore leaving.
Jyugo was all that was left, "Yukino.."
"Please. My name is (y/n).," the female said.
"(Y/n), I'll see ya,," the Japanese male said.
"Don't get in trouble.," she replied as he left.
She waited a bit before getting up and walking through the halls.
She found the room she was looking for, Enki Goku.
She knocked and went in, "Enki?"
The young woman saw Noriko and Enki both in the room, "Oh, am I interrupting?"
"No. Please come in.," Enki said.
The blonde woman smiled at the younger woman, "Hello, Yukinohana."
"Hello Noriko-nee. I mean, if it is okay to call you that?", the younger woman asked.
"It is fine.," the female said and tapped the stool beside her, "Come, you have questions for us both?"
"Yes.," (y/n) said and sat down, "It wanted to know if I have Elf in me as well."
Noriko looked at her and shook her head, "No. You are free of Elf, but there is something... Someone else. You have grief that is causing you great pain."
"That would be for my friend that was tortured and experimented on as well... Shiro is gone...," the cold female said, "The only one who reached out to break through the icy shell I built up and showed me human warmth. He was the only one besides my family to care."

"So we are much alike.," Noriko said, "Enki did the same for me. After I was locked away in a mountain shrine by my family because of my power."
"Noriko.," Enki said and took her hand, "You've endured that and this time, but you can't do it any longer can you?"
"No. But if it was long enough to save you, Enki, it was worth it.," the woman said and took his hand to her cheek.
"You saved with that kind heart of yours, Noriko. You have my thanks.," The large former supervisor said, "Find peace my old friend."
(Y/n) saw the woman's body fail and blood seep from the tears in her skin, her body was too fragile to survive any longer.
The cold woman caught the blonde as she fell, Noriko looked up at her with a smile.
"I'm happy to have met you and Jyugo.," the female said softly as her life left her body, "Thank you."
The woman put her hand to the younger's face as icy tears fell, her hand fell as she died.
(Y/n) looked up to Enki and saw he was facing to the wall opposite of his bed, he seemed to be irritated at whatever he saw.
The cold bodied woman knew what it had to be, "Elf, you asshole."
Enki shot his eyes to the female, he had a feeling she knew.
"Number fifteen said he was different than I.," Enki said to the Elf that was talking in his mind.
(Y/n) felt a cold chill as she knew that Elf could see her through both Jyugo and Enki.

"The fact you don't understand... means you are incomplete.," Enki said.
His arm lifted up and grabbed (y/n) and Noriko.
(Y/n) felt a crushing grip and yelped in pain, Enki let her go and both women fell onto his lap.
"I'll only say this.," the menacing former Supervisor said to Elf, "You are weak. You people established yourselves by sacrificing others. You mock them as you deceive, frame and steal away their lives. I am different, I won't become you. Nor will I be complicit in your schemes."
Enki covered Noriko's body with the sheet that covered him.
"My flesh is not your only goal, you want my memories, the Data.," the tall male spoke, "You people Control the body, but not the mind. That's why for the sake of control, you make the subjects fight each other. For Data. That is why you wanted Noriko's pwer, the power to read one's heart."
Whatever Elf said to Enki afterwards did not sway the male, "Can you not establish yourself unless you steal from others? How pitiful."
Enki looked mad after a pause.
It had to be something about Noriko.
"You're the same as her? Don't fuck with me.," the man said, "Noriko was someone who held a heart more beautiful than any other human. She's different from you."

(Y/n) did not believe her eyes as blood splashed onto her cheek.
Enki ripped his own heart out.
"I will no longer be deprived. I will not be stolen.," the Now dying Enki spoke to Elf as the female watched, " No matter what happens, I will not go down a path that uses others as a stepping stone. This is not self sacrifice, it is proof of my justice."
He held his heart up, "I decided to Protect them until the very end. I told you that you would never defeat me, did I not? From now on, my will is connected. this will, this heart, is something that you would never in your life understand."
The female saw him look to her, "Carry on. Do not fear him, for you have more than he ever could."
(Y/n) watched in silent horror as Enki fell limp, his face held a peaceful smile as he lay next to Noriko.
The woman shuffled off the bed and into to corner to cry, too much death. To much pain and death. Ice fell from her face as frozen tears.
"Aniki, Noriko-nee.," she heard Samon say as the door opened, "What the hell?!"
"They're gone, they're gone, they're gone.," (y/n) said as she held her hands over her head and cried, "Samon... They are gone."
The monkey Supervisor was as stunned as the female, his eyes welled up in tears.
"Aniki? Why...," he asked before screaming and alerting others.

"Whoa, did that guy fail?," a voice asked.
Another voice entered as well, "This isn't much for one who wasted so much of our time~"
"So the examinee committed suicide. That's a first~," A third chimed in.
"A failure is a failure.," another added.
"We have neither body nor data.," yet another added in.
"Contrary. They have an inkling of our existance. Acting any further now would be unwise.," A different voice added in, "Especially since the woman knows. She saw you and the subject speak."
"Will you continue to observe the situation for the time being?," the first voice asked.
"The others are busy. So let's just leave it at this.," one of the voices said, "Besides, even if we did not get Information from Enki, we still got other valuable information."
"I guess so. That was our goal from the start," another spoke, "And to see how much little Yuki grew was nice to see as well."
"I look forward to see how both grow even more now.," a male who stood with elf said, "But before that, we'll have to clean up a bit first."
"Okay.," another voice spoke, "But I look forward to see Yuki again, her growth is incredible~."

(Y/n) sat on the bench in the officer's area of headquarters after she was released from the hospital a few days later.
She had gotten word from Mitsuru that Momoko wanted to see her.
The female looked down as she waited for her turn, her eyes more hollow than ever. The bags under them showed how little sleep she was getting.
She was tapped on the shoulder and looked up, it was Momoko herself.
"You did not come when I called for you.," the blue haired warden said, "And I called a few times."
The icy woman looked at the Warden's red eyes with hollow ones.
"I have no choice. You are to take take a break again. Go out side of nanba and see your family.," the warden said, "You need to heal, have therapy of your own. You are not healthy or mentally sound."
"Okay.," (y/n) said and got up, "Momoko-nee... it was not just a suicide..... it was a justice... against Elf. To protect us.... Elf was there..in his head at his final moments..."
Momoko's eyes went wide, "Yukino?.. you saw it. Enki..."
"Tore out his heart... Elf can't have him...," the cold woman said and looked down at her still blood-stained skin, "He was just and good to his end."

"Yukino. Please. Go see your family and heal.," the blue haired warden said, "I've already had your schedule cleared so you can have already vacation that you have denied yourself since you came here."
"Okay Momoko-nee...," the hollow and cold voice of the female said as she got up.
The warden watched as the younger woman left and told one of the guards to help the cold woman to pack up and escort her to the pier to go to the mainland.
The guard did as told and helped the dazed woman to the boat that led to the mainland.
(Y/n) wandered about as she carried her bags with her.
She found herself looking at the ocean at sunset when she finally broke from her daze, she had more than one bag on her. Her suitcase, purse and a large bag that seemed to be filled with gifts.
She opened the letter that was from mushashi first, it was transcribed by Hitoshi. A thanks and a well wishing letter.
A group of gifts from Kiji and the two boys were next. One was a soft jacket that felt like a fluffy fluffy cloud. The other two was underwear.
The last one was wrapped carefully in a blanket.

(Y/n) opened that one up and gasped, it was like those dolls that were in the claw machine in the arcade room. But this was Shiro.
It looked like the picture that had gone missing, the one that had her and Shiro standing together outside the school he went to.
The doll had his school uniform on, it was large enough to be hugged and cuddled.
In the blanket with it was a note and the missing picture.
The note was Seitarou's apology for taking the picture and that it was Cell 13's idea to cheer her up with this doll.
She remembered how kind all of them were. Her friends, her other family.
She had hidden pain from them until recently.
How stupid it was for her to pain them by hurting herself like that.
They were so open and she still remained closed off. Afraid of being hurt again. Afraid of losing loved ones again.
But all of hem had somehow had her began to care for them, she did not know how or why but, she was happy.

The doll Seitarou made was adorable.
The cold bodied female kissed the doll on the cheek, "My little Shiro."
"(Y/n), there you are.," came the voice of an older woman.
The Young lady turned to see a woman who looked similar to her behind her, "Mom."
"We were called by your workplace to ask if you got here safely and saw that you were not at the pickup spot.," the older lady scolded then sighed, "I guess you really did see something horrible there, didn't you?"
The young woman nodded silently.
"Come home, your father is worried.," the older woman said, "He would want to speak to you."
(Y/n) turned back to the ocean to watch the sun finish dipping below the horizon.
"It is beautiful. You and Shiro used to stay out late like this to watch the sunsets together.," (y/n)'s mother said and stood beside her daughter, "It don't know why he never asked you out, you two were quite a good match for each other."
The cold female nodded and turned, "Mom. I'm scared."

"It is natural to be scared. But you have nothing to worry about.," the older woman said.
"Mom... it's deeper than just my fear of relationships.," the woman said while hugging her new doll, "I'm afraid of who took my first one from me, that they have returned."
The older woman looked surprised, "So... you actually remember what happened now? Where did you go? Why did you have that device attached to you?"
(Y/n) nodded, "Mom... I was experimented on. Like those prisoners that Dad and Enki were investigating."
(Y/n)'s mother looked around and led her daughter back to the car before taking her home to their new house.
The young Yukinohana was asleep as soon as she got home.
One of the guards that worked with her father had to carry her up to her room, her mother took care of her gifts.

The ocean around the young woman swirled.
"Yuki. I'm proud of you. You've grown."
She looked around, it was the same dream as always. The large shark was still here. She felt the shark behind her embrace her with a kind warmth.
"Yuki. Don't cry, you look more beautiful when you smile."





"Shiro?"
