Chapter 89: Persevering
"Tell
Dr. Touka," he said, pissed.
"Is there sothing I need to know?!" he demands once more, making Touka shake a bit but then her looks turned stern.
"Hiro" she began, she knew if she did this there was no turning back, she should heed Hachiro’s words and keep it a secret, but she can’t right now, not when Hiro was suffering because of it.
She gulps hard.
"Hiro is still on the Sp2 stage" she finally said.
Anzai paled at her words, he rembered the stages when she explained it to him, he couldn’t believe his ears.
"He’s still mutating," Anzai said, stunned.
"How’s that even possible!" He demands.
"We don’t know okay... we just have a reason to believe each of the kids is mutating differently in their own way... Hiro’s is the Sp2 stage" she explained.
"We?" Anzai said, puzzled.
"Yes, we," Hachiro said walking into the room.
"Hachiro," Touka said with wide eyes, surprised he was here.
"It appears we have one more person who knows our secret" he states adjusting his glasses.
His eyes then land on Yuki tending to Hiro.
"And another I presu" he adds.
"Both of you knew he was still mutating and let him undergo such training? What if he died in the process!" Anzai yelled, angry.
"Although he’s still on the Sp2 stage we believed he would still have so traits as a bio-genetics just like his eyes did... but it appears we were wrong" he states.
"Obviously!" Anzai growled.
"But we must keep this a secret, even from The Pri Minister, we are trying to avoid more experints, they are just kids" Touka pleaded.
"I have no intention of telling the Pri minister, I’m in charge of the bio-genetics as it is," Anzai said.
Touka took a deep breath of relief.
"But for Hiro, I’m afraid we would have to pull him out of the training, his weak body can’t handle any of it, his body is healing too slowly than we expected," Hachiro said.
"I’m not stopping".
They froze when they heard his voice.
They turned correspondingly, facing him. Hiro forced his body to sit up with the help of Yuki.
"I’m still mutating huh?" He said faintly, hearing all they talked about, so the surgery didn’t work then?
"Kimura Hiro... you heard the doctors, your body is weak and can’t handle the training, you’re vulnerable... end of the story," Anzai said sternly.
"If you keep going your body won’t be able to handle it, your current stage it’s the most vulnerable... maybe we could wait till when you cross to Sp3" Touka suggested.
"I said I’m not stopping!" He hissed as his fist tightened against the sheet.
"I will not back down, I will not stop, I will keep going no matter what," he said with gritted teeth as his head hung down.
Yuki stared at him with shaky eyes.
"He’s rely a kid, he doesn’t know what he’s saying... let the older ones decide what’s best for you," Hachiro said as his glasses turned blankly white.
Hiro’s fist tightens more on his sheets. Anzai had a dark expression on.
"Tell
Kimura Hiro" he began in a serious tone, his arms folded against his chest.
"Why do you wanna keep going?"
Hiro slowly raised his head at his words. "Because..." Hiro began with stern looks but then it turned sad.
"All my life I have always hated what my dad did for a living, I resented it just because..." he said shakily, his lips pressing in a thin line. "...just because he never had ti for
or my mom... but my mom wasn’t bothered by it because she understands... but I didn’t even till the last minute, I never got to understand, I missed that one chance I could have with him... and now everything has changed, the very things I have been avoiding all my life is what can save my life if I don’t get stronger if I don’t overco my weakness... then how... how will I keep moving, how will I stay alive," he said as the tears stained the leather white material around his eyes.
"You once told
that... only a coward would think because of his disability, he can’t do a damn thing!" he yelled, his teeth clenching hard.
"I don’t wanna be a coward, or a liability, I DON’T WANNA BE WEAK!" he shouts the last part, bending his head down as he breaks into tears.
"I want to honor my dad’s last wishes," he said between sobs, his cries echoing in the room as he sobbed and cried.
"I see," Anzai said with a hard expression.
"Kimura Hiro will continue his training" he announced.
Stunning everyone, Touka faced him.
"But Mr. Uchida Hiro’s body can’t withstand the training" Touka said.
"Which is why he will train... especially under ," Anzai said, smirking.
"But what about his regular training, will he still undergo that too?" Hachiro said, folding his arms.
"Nope, I just need to train him for one year. I will train the rest but privately and then he can continue with the others for the period of the last month... that is if he can last," he said, chuckling evilly.
"Mr. Uchida!" Touka yelled with white eyes, surely in his tone, he didn’t seem like he was about to go easy on the boy.
Hachiro just adjusted his glasses.
"And what will we tell the Pri Minister about him not joining the rest?" Hachiro asked, raising an eyebrow.
Anzai faced him grimacing.
"You’re a doctor, think of sothing" he shrugs, they were smart people, they could just think of a dical case and it would go, doctors had that kind of leverage.
Hachiro’s sweat dropped behind his head at his words, he must think being a doctor ans having all the leverage which was a big opposite.
Anzai turns back to Hiro.
"Tell , Kimura Hiro!" Hiro jumped slightly at his booming voice. "Are you up for it?" He asks with a smirk,
Hiro gulps hard, but then determination crosses his features.
"Yes sir!".
