*APE council room, cosmos, 3rd POV*

Papa: "Klaxosaur activity has increased lately, and large ones are reportedly showing up everywhere, which is unprecedented."

Marmoset: "The Nines are dealing with them for now, but they still have other tasks to complete"

Baboon: "How long will we let Strelitzia goof off? Now that the special specimen's aptitude has been ascertained, we have no reason to leave it there any longer"

Lemur: "Indeed. It isn't wise to let her mix with tainted stamens any more"

Marmoset: "If we're recalling her, we'll have to ready a new stamen" 

Papa: "Not a problem. There are plenty of parasites who want to team up with her"

Vice Chairman: "That leaves the Reapers"

Marmoset: "They both are under order from Werner to stay with Strelitzia. I say we should send them both to the front lines with her"

Lemur: "It would be wise, given their performance until now"

Papa: "So it will be. Send orders to Plantation 13 commander"

*(Y/N) POV, Plantation 13 hangar*

After recovering Strelitzia, and by recovering I mean to drag her on Heliconia's back, Mitsuru was taken to medical wing. I spotted Zero Two walking out

(Y/N): "Zero Two! Wait!"

Zero Two: "Huh? (Y/N), what do you want friend?"

(Y/N): "I need to ask you one thing. Do you really have to be so brutal?"

Zero Two: "He said he wanted to be my partner, so I gave him a sample..." I cut her off

(Y/N): "And I'm suppose to believe in this lie?"

Zero Two: "Ugh! Fine! He was insulting darling and you two"

(Y/N): "That little..." I clenched my fists

Zero Two: "See! You are reacting just like me"

(Y/N): "Yeah, I want to punch him even more now. But only this and not killing him. Would you do this if it was Hiro?"

Zero Two: "It can't be him. When we arrived I used full force in Strelitzia and he was okay"

(Y/N): "If by okay you mean unconscious then yeah, he was okay. Zero, you know me and Ryuko are not from this time. I will tell you some wise words. Appreciate what you have, because you may lose it soon"

Zero Two: "I don't care about those weaklings. For me they can just die like previous Squad 13. I only care about my darling, you and Ryuko"

(Y/N): "Zero..."

Zero Two: "You know it will happen sooner or later, friend..." and she walked off

*small timeskip, house of Plantation 13's bird cage*

We are standing outside the room containing Mitsuru. He woke up with panic attack and we hear him speaking

Mitsuru: "She is a demon. You'd have to be insane to ride with her. She'll kill you." Then Futoshi walked out with a tray of untouched food"

Ichigo: "How was he?"

Futoshi: "He hasn't touched his food at all. maybe I should eat it so it doesn't go to waste"

Zorome: "He's been like that ever since we got back"

(Y/N): "We saw this before..."

Zorome: "So it was from riding with Zero Two?"

Ryuko: "Yes... Zero Two is an unique pistil. If you are not mentally strong then this happens. So far Mitsuru is third third stamen with this mental breakdown"

Ichigo: "Will he be alright?"

(Y/N): "Yup. But it could take some time" after that, Hiro walked inside 

Hiro: "Mitsuru... What happened with Zero Two?" 

Mitsuru: "What... happened? That girl tried to devour everything I have. My blood, my flesh and my soul... All of it! Everything was normal at first, but after a point, sh-she was out to kill me."

Hiro: "Mitsuru..." he get his hand forward only for Mitsuru to grab him by his collar

Mitsuru: "What's worse, she had a smile on her face! She was smiling the entire time!"

Kokoro: "Mitsuru!"

(Y/N): "Mitsuru, calm down!"

Futoshi: "Calm down, man!" he passed the tray to Zorome 

Mitsuru: "Ride with her again, and it will happen to you. You'll end up like me, too. You're out of your mind if you think you're the sole exception!" Me and Futoshi walked in to get Mitsuru from Hiro

Futoshi: "Cut it out, Mitsuru!" Then the rest of the squad came in

(Y/N): "Lie down man, you need to rest"

Ichigo walked over to Hiro

Ichigo: "You okay?"

Hiro: "Yeah"

I walked over to them and us three looked at panting Mitsuru

(Y/N): "No good..."

Ichigo: "Okay squad, let him rest. (Y/N), Ryuko I need you to come with me to Hachi"

Ryuko: "Okay"

(Y/N): "Lead the way, Ichigo"

After a small walk we are near Hachi's office

Ryuko: "What are we even doing here, Ichigo?"

Ichigo: "It's a surprise for you two"

(Y/N): "Okay..." We entered the building. We saw Hachi sitting and Nana standing nearby"

Nana: "How is Mitsuru?"

(Y/N): "Panic attacks for now, he will get back to himself in a day or two"

Nana: "Glad to hear that. Now, Ichigo, did you told them what you wanted to say?"

Ichigo: "Um... thank you for helping us back in the mine. I was too scared to give orders..."

Ryuko: "And we went here just because you wanted to thank us Ichigo?"

Ichigo: "N-no"

Hachi: "Code 015 wanted you two to become co-leaders of Squad 13, with her" me and Ryuko are shocked

Ryuko: "Ichigo... are you sure?"

Ichigo: "Yes. You two kept your minds clear in danger. I need a hand to become a better leader and you two can help me with that"

(Y/N): "We are flattered Ichigo, but we must refuse" At this Ichigo looked at us with wide eyes

Ichigo: "But... Why...?"

Ryuko: "We are not a part of this squad"

(Y/N): "Besides, you only met us how long ago... not even a week"

Ichigo: "It doesn't matter. You two are honorary members of Squad 13 from now, by my order as the leader! You helped us so much we would never be able to repay it."

Nana: "Ichigo, calm down. (Y/N) and Ryuko are right. Hachi is still waiting for a word from Doctor. If it doesn't come soon they will be moved with Zero Two to another place"

Ichigo then stood up and went to us, looking down

Ichigo: "I understand... but please..." she then went and hugged me and Ryuko "Remember about us on your journey. You two will always be welcome in Plantation 13"

(Y/N): "We will, and we are not moving yet"

Ryuko: "We can still help you, but we won't have an official role"

We broke the hug and walked out towards house

Ichigo: "I really want you two to stay. Not only me but the rest of the girls too. From what Goro told me, he, Hiro and Futoshi want it too"

Ryuko: "I'm sure doctor will answer soon"

'Uncle, stage one is nearly in motion. Just answer Hachi and we will start'

(Y/N): "And I'm sure you will be a great leader Ichigo. You don't need us to do this"

Ichigo: "I don't think..." I slightly patted her head "What was that for?"

(Y/N): "Ichigo, you need to believe in yourself more. And trust yourself. There is no place for thinking 'What would happen if I would do this differently'"

Ichigo: "I trust myself, but others won't after our mission in mine..."

(Y/N): "You know, the best way to earn someones trust, is to trust them too. Admit you did a mistake. Say you want everyone in this squad to be safe and sound."

Ichigo: "Thanks guys"

We entered the house and went to it's back to see Zorome and Futoshi playing with the ball and Hiro standing nearby, looking at them. 

Ichigo: "Do you still want to ride with her?" We walked over to him "I just can't bring myself to trust her. Especially after seeing what happened to Mitsuru"

(Y/N): "He is mentally weak..."

Ryuko: "We saw a lot of stamens trying to tame Zero. And Mitsuru was one of them"

Ichigo: "It doesn't change a thing. You told me (Y/N) that the rumor about her is true. Hiro, you will die if you ride with her two more times."

Hiro: "Even so, I still have a chance to be of use if I'm riding with Zero Two"

Ichigo clenched her fist and started to have glazed eyes

Ichigo: "You've made up your mind, huh? Fine. I won't stop you again, then"

Hiro: "Ichigo"

Ichigo: "As leader, I have to steel myself, too." and with that Ichigo went inside

(Y/N): "Hiro, remember what I told you, not everyone can pilot with Zero Two. You have a living evidence inside. Just, be safe, okay?" seems he doesn't listen to me

Hiro: "Steel yourself, huh?"

Ryuko: "He seems to be in trans. Let's walk inside" We entered the house, and soon the rest of Squad 13 minus Hiro, get their place in lounge

Zorome: "Hiro's training by himself again? If you leave him alone, he runs forever"

Futoshi: "He is surprisingly hardworking, isn't he" He said with some food in his mouth

Ryuko: "Futoshi, don't talk with food in your mouth"

Futoshi: "Sorry Ryuko" He took a bite of his ice cream " That's not how I imagined he'd be"

Miku: "Wait, has he still not given up on riding with that girl?"

Goro: "Well, that is presently the only way he can stay here"

Zorome: "But doesn't that mean he'll have to leave if Zero Two does? Same as Ryuko and (Y/N)?"

Goro: "That would be the natural assumption"

(Y/N): "We will look after him if that would be the case"

Then a silence occurred for a while, until Kokoro spoken

Kokoro: "Maybe he'd be better off going with her and you guys. It'd be awful if he had to remain alone forever"

Miku: "Look, I don't know if you forgot or what, but she has klaxosaur blood. She is not human" At this I clenched my fists and grind my teeth "Just look at what happened to Mitsuru"

Ichigo: "Hiro's well aware of that. He wants to ride with her her anyway" she finally spoke with her back still turned to the rest

Goro: "Ichigo?"

Ichigo: "And he isn't the only one staring death in the face. If things don't change, we could find ourselves dead at any time, too. Unless we can defeat klaxosaurs without Strelitzia or Heliconia, we won't survive for long. We cant afford to mess up again. (Y/N) and Ryuko won't be here forever to save us"

Miku: "It's not like you didn't messed up just as bad"

Ichigo: "That's right. I let fear get into my head. But it won't happen again. I want everyone here to stay alive, doesn't matter if it's our next mission or any other after it. We're a team, aren't we? We need to trust each other and act like one from now"

Me and Ryuko started to clap our hands

Ryuko: "(Y/N) told you Ichigo, you are becoming a true leader just before our eyes"

Futoshi: "She is right, you know"

Miku: "Y-You don't have to tell me" 

Goro: "How very like a leader"

Zorome: "Well, it's high time we showed Papa and them what we're made of"

Kokoro: "Yeah"

Ichigo then walked over to Ikuno and put her hand on her shoulder

Ichigo: "We need you too, Ikuno."

Ikuno: "Huh?"

Ichigo: "Mitsuru probably knows he can't mess up again, either. Back him up as his partner." and she smiled sweetly at her

Ikuno: "Okay"

Ichigo: "I have a second thing to tell everyone. As for now (Y/N) and Ryuko are honorary members of Squad 13"

Futoshi: "Awesome! Does that mean Doctor approved your stay here?"

Ryuko: "We are still waiting. Also Ichigo wanted us as her right hand in command, but we refused"

Miku: "Why? Your plan in the mines worked perfectly. Especially after Ichigo froze"

Ichigo: "Until Dr. Franxx approve it, they are on the move with Zero Two" She turned to me and Ryuko "But when you two become an official part of our team, I want you to become co-leaders of Squad 13 with me, okay?" she ended it with her sweet smile like before

(Y/N): "I still think you don't need me or Ryuko to become a good leader Ichigo"

Goro: "Knowing Ichigo, you won't change her mind. She is too stubborn"

Ichigo: "Hey!"

Me and Ryuko laughed

Ryuko: "If that's what you want Ichigo... we will accept" 

(Y/N): "Heh, and here I thought we will be only looking after Zero"

Ryuko: "Oh don't be so grumpy honey" this shocked everybody

'Fuck!'

Zorome: "Honey?"

Miku: "Ryuko, why did you called (Y/N) 'honey'?"

Ryuko: "em... emmm..."

Ikuno: "Also you and (Y/N) look close to each other"

(Y/N): "Honey is something like darling Zero Two uses. It means a person you care about and want to protect"

Ryuko: "Yeah... that. Me and (Y/N) are close because we know each other since emm..."

(Y/N): "Garden?"

Ryuko: "Right, garden. Some of other kids were bullying me and he stood up for me. Since then caretakers observed our relationship. And that's why I can only connect with (Y/N)"

(Y/N): "Then Dr.Franxx wanted us for his project. Normally when you become a parasite you are 14 or 15. We stayed behind and trained to be a special force unit"

Miku: "So, how old are you two?"

(Y/N): "What month we have now?"

Ikuno: "November"

Ryuko: "Then we both are 18"

Miku: "What? I knew you two are older, but to be four years older?"

Zorome: "Doesn't that mean you can become adults?"

(Y/N): "We refused. It's no fun to be closed in a city with some device on your head. It's better to just fight. At least you are not getting bored"

Zorome: "You don't know. Adults are awesome! I can't wait till I become one!"

'Poor boy will meet a wall soon'

Our chat was stopped with an alarm. Everyone stood up and we went on our way to change. But before, a message comes from the speakers

Speaker: "To prepare for the kissing with Plantation 26, Plantation 13 will now switch to mobile setup. I repeat: to prepare for the kissing with Plantation 26, Plantation 13 will now switch to mobile setup"

Ryuko: "So Plantation 13 is low on it's reserves" I sighed

(Y/N): "Just don't. I remember when we were sent as backup for plantation 83 and 26 kissing. Hope 090 and his squad are alright" everyone looked at me and Ryuko

Miku: "You guys know what is happening?"

Futoshi: "What is this kissing?" at this Ichigo stiffen up

'She knows about other meaning of this word'

(Y/N): "It's when plantations connect to each other to share their magma energy and other resources"

Ryuko: "And that's why (Y/N) didn't liked it. It means a lot of klaxosaurs to deal with"

Futoshi: "H-How many?"

Ryuko: "Hundreds, maybe even thousands"

Futoshi: "T-Thousands?!"

Goro: "Don't worry. We have Strelitzia and Heliconia on our side. Not to mention Squad 26"

Then clock chime can be heard. I looked up to it to see it's 12

Futoshi: "We will be fine then. Now, lunch time!" With that we all entered the mess hall

*timeskip*

After lunch we got emergency call. Klaxosaur get nearby Plantation and must be eliminated. 

Hachi: "We detected a worm type klaxosaur getting in close perimeter to plantation. You will deploy to deal with it" Miku then raised her hand

Nana: "Yes Miku?"

Miku: "Will (Y/N) and Ryuko go with us?"

Nana: "No, you kids need to learn how to fight without Heliconia. This will be your first real test"

After that everyone went to their FranXX and soon after rushed outside. Me and Ryuko are observing with Nana. Then Zero Two and Hiro entered the room

Hiro: "Is that the only enemy?"

Nana: "For now, yes" she looked back "Changing into your suits won't help. We are not deploying Strelitzia or Heliconia by that matter"

Zero Two: "Hey, I didn't say anything" as she put her hands on the back of her head"

I looked up to see a transport ship

(Y/N): "Um... Nana, what are they doing here?"

Zero Two: "I want to know it to"

Nana: "I'm sorry (Y/N), Ryuko" Then door opened to reveal a lot of APE soldiers

Soldrier: "Codes 002, 004 and 006. You three are coming with us"

Nana: "Your escorts are here. Do as they say. Zero Two, together with Reapers will return to the front lines. By themselves, obviously"

Hiro: "Wait, what do you..."

Soldrier: "Hurry. We want to leave while the FranXX are keeping the klaxosaur occupied" he went and put his arm on Zero's shoulder

Ryuko: "And now he is dead..."

(Y/N): "Yup"

Zero Two: "Don't touch me!"

Zero Two instantly slapped him, sending him back. Then soldiers aimed their guns at us. Me and Ryuko are not moved because... well we would regenerate right away. 

Hiro: "What is all this about, guys?"

Zero Two turned around and faced Hiro

Zero Two: "Darling, looks like time's up" She walked over to him "I felt like things could work out with you, too. I wanted to be with you. But this is goodbye" After that she touched Hiro's forehead with her horns

Hiro: "Ow... Zero Two?"

Zero Two: "Bye bye!" Then I walked over to Hiro

(Y/N): "Hiro, remember what I told you. You are the first stamen that Zero liked" I bro hugged him "Don't waste your chance when it will occur. We will see each other soon" After me, Ryuko just hugged Hiro and we exited the room under our escort. I looked over at Zero to see her eyes getting teary. I walked over to her

Zero Two: "(Y/N)... It was him for sure... but I didn't had a chance..."

(Y/N): "You will see him again, and we will not let you go with them" I whispered

Zero Two: "What do you mean?"

I looked over to Ryuko and nodded, she instantly knew what I was thinking

(Y/N): "Have you ever wondered why our uniforms have those eyes? And why they are blinking sometimes?"

Zero Two: "I though I was seeing thing..."

(Y/N): "You will see soon. Just wait for an appropriate moment" With that I walked back to Ryuko

(Y/N): "Neko, get ready. It's time to stretch our legs"

Neko: "Finally! I was wondering when we get to beat someone's ass like in old times!"

Ryuko: "Senketsu, you too!"

Senketsu: "Right"

We continue our walk. Soon we hear a bang on the glass. We looked down to see Hiro

Hiro: "Zero Two!" Zero stopped for a while and then continued to walk "Wait up, Zero Two! Damn it! Hear me out! I... I was afraid of riding with you. I'm probably still afraid of it. But that's not because you aren't human. (Y/N) made me open my eyes. It's because I lacked the resolve! When we first met, I couldn't take my eyes off you. You were confident, held your head high, and were ready to fight the klaxosaurs even when hurt! And I found that beautiful! I'd be moping around, but I felt like I could fly with you. I realized that I never really cared about riding the FranXX. I wanted to ride with you! So please don't go, Zero Two!" We stopped

Ryuko: "Did he just... confessed to our Zero?"

(Y/N): "Looks like it love"

Ryuko: "Seems like your darling is calling out to you, Zero"

Zero Two turned around with a smile

Zero Two: "And how can I leave after that? Ryuko! (Y/N)! Now!"

(Y/N): "Right! Life Fiber Connect, Kamui Nekketsu!"

Ryuko: "Life Fiber Synchronize, Kamui Senketsu!"

Zero Two jumped back and took two guards out. Me and Ryuko went and punched those in front. I hold one above about 30-40 meters fall

(Y/N): "Any last words?"

Soldier: "What are those clothes?!" I let him go and soon he splashed on a platform below. 

Meanwhile Zero Two took a weapon from one guard and shoot the glass above Hiro. Then she jumped over to him, breaking the glass

Ryuko: "(Y/N)! Zero Two is out!"

(Y/N): "Let's join her. Nekketsu Jetto!"

Ryuko: "Senketsu Shippu!" We flew toward our two friends and land

Hiro: "Zero Two..." she walked over in front of him

Zero Two: "Nobody's ever said such embarrassing things to me before"

Hiro: "I-It's a first time for me, too" Zero leaned down

Zero Two: "You wanna ride me, huh?"

'Don't misunderstood it, DON'T MISUNDERSTOOD IT!'

I looked over at Ryuko, she is trying to stiffen a laugh. Then she blew a raspberry

Ryuko: "pff Sorry..."

(Y/N): "Really love?"

Ryuko: "Yes!"

We looked back at Hiro and Zero Two

Hiro: "I'll do it" Zero get her hand near her ear

Zero Two: "Let me hear it one more time" this shocked Hiro for a while, but he later compose himself

Hiro: "Let me... Let me ride in Strelitzia again!" then Zero Two smiled at him, took his hand and waltzed through the gate

Zero Two: "Now that's my darling! Friends! We will see each other at the hangar!"

(Y/N): "Have fun Zero! Nekketsu Jetto!"

Me and Ryuko zoomed out of the hole Zero made and went on our way to Heliconia.

Guard: "Those four are getting away!"

After a while we looked down to see Zero Two still dragging Hiro, kicking one guard at the chest. Soon after we flew down and punched other guards to the side. Then we landed on a platform in front of Heliconia and deactivate our Kamuis

Ryuko: "Senketsu, pistil suit"

(Y/N): "Neko you know what to do"

Neko and Senketsu: "Right" after transforming we entered Heliconia, meanwhile Zero Two and Hiro entered Strelitzia. Then Nana hologram appeared in front of us

Nana: "Children, get out of there right now!"

Zero Two: "I can't. I'm going out with my Darling and my friends!"

Nana: "(Y/N), Ryuko, say something, please!" she begged

(Y/N): "No can do Nana. We swore to always be by Zero Two's side"

Nana: "(Y/N)!" I cut off the radio

Ryuko: "I think we will hear from Nana about this"

(Y/N): "We will be fine" I pressed the triggers and soon Heliconia's face plate sprung to life

Heliconia: "(Y/N)! Look!" She pointed to Strelitzia getting active

(Y/N): "Oh fuck yeah! Hiro did it!" Then we looked down to see soldiers running away. We stood up and Strelitzia blow a hole in the side of the ship

Strelitzia: "Let's fly, darling!" she activated her boosters and flew away

Heliconia: "Zero! Wait for us! Hahaha!" soon we too get into the air and get near them

Hiro: "I did it... I'm piloting a FranXX!" 

Strelitzia: "That's right, This is what you're capable of"

(Y/N): "I told you Hiro! Haha! This is the best!"

Heliconia: "So how is it Hiro?"

Hiro: "I feel myself going deeper inside Zero Two. I can't tell where I end and where she begin anymore. And I love it!"

Strelitzia: "I'm feeling it, too. We're a perfect fit, huh?"

'You finally found your happiness Zero. Now just remember my words'

Heliconia: "Just like me and (Y/N)! I'm so happy for you two!"

Strelitzia: "Thanks Ryuko"

Hiro: "And I want to thank you too. You believed in me and look now..."

(Y/N): "Now, let's go help our friends!"

Hiro: "Right!" with that we flew over to where Squad 13 was fighting this worm klaxosaur

*Meanwhile, with Nana 3rd POV*

Dr. Franxx: "Nana, are you there?"

Nana: "Doctor? Why are you calling?"

Dr. Franxx: "I just got Hachi's request about Reapers"

Nana: "And..."

Dr.Franxx: "Don't rush me... anyway I see no objections to let them stay"

Nana: "So that means..."

Dr. Franxx: "Yes dear. Ryuko and (Y/N) are from now a part of Squad 13" she smiled

Nana: "I will tell Hachi right away"

Dr. Franxx: "Right. See you soon Nana"

Nana: "Goodbye doctor"

*back with Heliconia and Strelitzia*

We spotted the klaxosaur. We got Heliconia's scythe while Strelitzia got her spear. We rushed it and throw it back to, rescuing our friends

Delphinium: "Strelitzia?! Heliconia?!"

(Y/N): "Hey Ichigo, you missed us?" We went to help Zero Two

Goro: "Is Hiro piloting Strelitzia?"

Futoshi: "Are you serious?"

Hiro: "Let us handle this"

Delphinium: "No! We can't afford to rely on you two this time!"

Hiro: "Even I'm... I'm part of the team, too"

(Y/N): "We are just here to help as always. You won't be getting rid of us that easily, right Ryuko?"

Heliconia: "You bet they won't!"

Delphinium: "Alright you guys. You deal with that. We are going to focus on this one"

Heliconia and Strelitzia blocked shots from klaxosaur's neck with our weapons. Then we throw them only for it to bite on them and we tug it down

Strelitzia: "Friends, try to hold it in place"

Heliconia: "Okay Zero" we impaled our scythe, rendering it's head unmovable. Strelitzia went high in the sky and impaled her spear in it's mouth. Then she detonated it

Strelitzia: "That didn't feel right"

Hiro: "Where's the core?" Klaxosaur then bite Strelitzia, but she soon escaped. Klaxosaur then tried to go underground. Heliconia and Strelitzia rushed it

Heliconia and Strelitzia: "Oh, no, you don't!" They grabbed it, pulling it from the ground and slamming it down. Soon the ground cracked revealing it's a one big son of a bitch klaxosaur!

(Y/N): "Fucking hell! It's huge!"

Zorome: "No way... it was all part of one klaxosaur?"

Futoshi: "If it's that that long, it won't be easy to look for the core!"

Goro: "But we'will still have to find it!" Then this worm started to get around the rest of Squad 13

Argentea: "God! Somebody stop this thing!"

Delphinium: "I got it. Pin it down everyone!" she jumped onto the klaxosaur and impaled her blades through it. Pinning it down "Come on guys!"

Everyone: "Yeah!" 

Meanwhile in the back Heliconia got her scythe up

Heliconia and (Y/N): "Scissor Scythe, Full Power!" soon it started burning and we impale it into it's tail. Strelitzia was next to us holding the klaxosaur with her spear. Then Zorome spoken

Zorome: "Okay, we pinned it down"

Delphinium: "(Y/N), how is it on your end?"

(Y/N): "We pinned it too, leader"

Zorome: "Okay, but now what?!"

Delphinium: "H-Hiro! We need you!" Strelitzia looked over to Heliconia

Heliconia: "Go! We will handle it here!" she just nodded and flew towards klaxosaur's mouth. Soon we saw her going full speed into it and we get our scythe out of her way. Then Strelitzia exited with klaxosaur's core impaled on her spear. Klaxosaur explodes into the blue rain, covering everyone. The core slid down from Strelitzia's weapon and Hachi talk to us via radio

Hachi: "Target neutralized. All units, return to base"

*small timeskip, briefing room*

After returning back to the plantation's hangar. Me, Hiro, Ryuko and Zero Two were escorted to Nana and Hachi

Nana: "You four disobeyed direct orders, attacked and killed APE personnel..."

(Y/N): "*whistle*"

Nana: "Stole two FranXX and interfered into this mission... but in the end you saved the rest from certain death. We are going to overlook what you did, especially you killing the personnel, (Y/N)"

(Y/N): "I only defended myself"

Nana: "Just don't let it happen again"

Ryuko: "Okay"

(Y/N): "No problem"

Hiro: "Yes, ma'am"

Zero Two: "Yhm"

Nana: "Second news. We finally got the response from Dr.Franxx about your stay here, Reapers"

(Y/N): "And?"

Nana: "(Y/N), Ryuko, I want to congratulate you two. Heliconia is now permanently assigned to Plantation 13. From now you are a part of Squad 13"

Ryuko: "So that means..."

(Y/N): "We are staying!" Ryuko hugged me and we spin around for a while

Ryuko: "Fuck yeah!" I put her down

Nana: "Ryuko, language"

Ryuko: "Sorry ma'am"

(Y/N): "What about Zero Two and Hiro?"

Nana: "APE has reconsidered. For the time being Strelitzia is too assigned to Plantation 13"

Zero Two: "You heard that darling? I gotta stay!"

Hiro: "It's good to hear, Zero Two. We also have (Y/N) and Ryuko with us" He looked over at us "Thank you for everything. I finally got my wings"

Ryuko: "And you better make use of them. You may not know Hiro, but we and Zero like to bet a little"

Hiro: "Bet? About what?"

Zero Two: "Darling, we bet who will kill more klaxosaurs during one mission"

(Y/N): "And so far its 8-6 for Team Heliconia"

Zero Two: "Now that I have my darling, you have no chance, (Y/N). Right darling?"

Hiro: "You bet Zero Two. You better watch (Y/N). We will beat you two"

(Y/N): "Oh I am so afraid, buu huu" I fake cried and then we looked at each other and laughed 

Hiro: "Man, with you two here things will get funnier for sure. So, for fruitful cooperation?" He offered me a hand

(Y/N): "For fruitful cooperation" I shake it while girls just looked at us

Ryuko: "Typical boys..."

Zero Two: "I must agree Ryuko..."
