THE AWAKENING: BIO-GENETICS-Chapter 146: Escort Mission [1]

INFORMATION AVAILABLE FOR PUBLIC DISCLOSURE

The Sp-virus: also known as ’Synthetic Proliferation’ is a deadly virus that spread after the explosion of the Chemical Plant, the origin is still unknown, but through discovery, it is said to cause unimaginable mutation to the human cells, it’s deadly to a point that it destroys all body cells in an instant, crumbling the body into nothing but molecule wastes.

Also airborne, if inhaled within the contaminated area, sudden death is assured.

"Inorder words we can’t do anything rashly" he turns as his eye lands on Anzai, his eyes lands on his tighten fist behind his back, almost drawing blood.

His eyes sadden knowing their General was keeping it in.

"As well as General Anzai!"

They gulped hard at his words.

"Being Soldiers, carrying out the orders of superiors, its annoying" Yuki said with a straight face. It ate at her but she remained composed knowing there no use acting out rashly. It wouldn’t be the right thing to do at the moment

"Once again Kaede-sama, they are more than capable" Anzai said sternly.

Kaede sighs rolling her eyes.

"If you say so General Anzai, i hope these soldiers are capable like you say" she states, turning to Aoi beside her.

"Get ready to move out" she orders.

With a light bow he turned leaving.

"So whats the plan" she asked folding her arms, certainly hoping he had one.

"In order to avoid a direct hit from the Kaijus, we will move in separate groups, following different routes" he said.

"That’s a good plan" she said with a nod of her head. At least he had one, as long as they got to the destination safe.

"We will break into teams, Team A to C will be responsible for escorting your personnel’s, why we the Team D, the superior team will escort you, this way there can be order and avoid a direct hit if the Kaijus were to attack"

"Its a good plan i like it, but i heard you’re have already defeated the alpha and the packs" she reasoned. "So we shouldn’t be worried about attacks right?"

"We have a reason to believe there’s more, all Kaijus are the infected civilians of Japan, we should expect more of them" he said.

"Yeah i heard" she said sternly. Such a heartbreaking news.

"This virus is very unpredictable, turning the infected into monster while kids into a mystery" she states.

"Shall we then General Anzai, i leave the rest to you" she said turning to walk away.

Anzai turns to the bio-genetics.

"Assemble as planned!"

"Yes sir!"

"Our comms may defect, but we will stay in touch as much as we can" Anzai said.

They nod in agreement as they got ready to advance with their teams.

"ADVANCE!"

Their Hellhounds and vehicles gave gearing sounds as they all moved out in separate routes as planned.

Team A

Two vehicles at the center holding 10 personnel’s, the bio-genetics around them driving.

Dr. Touka was inside one of the cars.

"Tell me Dr. Touka what are these Kaiju’s like?" one of the personnel’s seated beside her asked. The curiousity was hard to miss since it was their first time on the outside world after years.

"Not something you would like to see, um..."

"Oh my apologies, I’m Fujii Yukio" he said in amusement.

"I see, these Kaiju’s must be very dangerous, tell me how was the Alpha? How strong was it," he asked in curiousity.

"The word strong can’t exactly describe it, even though at the Sp2 stage it was still able to do things we never thought it could do, all the raw energy all at once, it was so terrifying" Touka said with shaky eyes. Her mind reliving that day, it was deeply ingrained in her memory, even now she could hear a phantom growl. It caused her skin to prickle and her senses to be on alert.

Yukio made a hmm sound.

"And the bio-genetics are on the Sp3 stage?"

She nods.

"All of them?"

She froze at his words as she turns to him.

"Are all of them currently in Sp3 stage?" He asked politely once again. Hoping she would answer and not ignore.

"Of course I don’t see why you are asking," she said as sternly as she could.

"I’m a researcher Dr. Touka, even if I’m not the best, I still know somethings, in a more clear sense my knowledge is more versatile than yours... as your team of scientist were able to deduce, the virus is purely unknown you were able to identify the stage in their blood cells, thus how you could study it, am I correct?"

"Yes true" Touka said.

"But did you specifically studied the virus base on how their immune system can adapt to it?"

"That wasn’t necessary beacause the virus is symbiotic, their bodies related to it at the same pace so the relationship between the virus and their body are the same, they mutated the same time, their structures shifted the same their-" she paused her words when she thought of Hiro’s condition.

’Wait a minute,’ her eyes shakes. ’Hiro’s mutating differently, could this be it?’ The thought of it caused more mystery to unfold. Could it be?

"In terms of Symbiosis as you said, symbiosis is a state in which both organisms live together in closely proximity, and in which both generally derive benefit... the benefit of the virus living in their body for example; their abilities obtained, their hasten senses, unlocking of stages of the virus which so far has proven useful. But it still falls down to what the Sp-virus benefit from living within their body, what’s the virus purpose" he explained.

"Non-symbiotic mutualism: the species do not live together, nor are dependent on each other; the relationship is faculatitive or opportunistic but does profit the organisms when together" Touka said with wide eyes.

"Yes Dr. Touka, in order words, these Kaiju’s as you called them are non symbiotic, the bio-genetics, symbiotic" he states.

Touka gasps.

"The Sp virus didn’t response to the others infected as planned, thus their current stage, creating something as deadly as the Kaijus" he adds.

"Then the bio-genetics their age, their body type why them, why are they symbiotic to this deadly virus despite their tender bodies, it should have break them should have caused severe complications but-"

"It chose them rather, a group of kids ranging 8 to 11 when first infected right?".

Touka gulps hard. How come she never thought of this? 2hat she so focus on the virus she missed this when it came to the infected kids. This was an eye opener and it created more understanding to this virus.

"Are you saying this virus is specifically made and intended to infect kids?" Touka said stunned. If this were truth then they have been at this wrong. This was planned in sick way and it was terrifying.

Goosebumps found her skin and she released a sharp intake of breath.

"Precisely" he said certainly.

Touka heart slammed a loud heart beat. This changes everything, their views about the virus, everything they thought they knew about the virus could be false. The virus was an agent targeted at kids.

"There’s more to these kids, Dr. Touka" Yukio began in a more serious tone.

Her eyes shakes at his words.

"Being symbiotic with this virus means they are all mutating differently to it, their immune system differ, thus different applied results"

She turns to him.

"But main question and mystery we’re all diverting from, it’s the day it all began" he said facing her.

"Black Storm Day". He smirked. "There could be more to this than we can ever imagine. It world as we know it and what we thought we knew. It changes everything"

Touka ran a hand though her hair distressed. "Thank you for your insight. And you’re right this far from what we have ever imagined"

"I’m glad you understand this just like I do, there’s nothing more sweeter than two mind deducing a complicated mystery. The virus is more that we have viewed in the years, I’m afraid there will be more to it. Do you think we can handle these drastic changes, Dr Touka?"
