The Tale Of Mika And Kazuko.





Okay, so. First thing's first.
This plot is my baby. It took me a while to come up with it, and it's been brewing in my mind forever. And so, if you steal it, or use it in any way, shape or form, I will hunt you down. And destroy you. And no, that's not a typo. I won't just kill you; it'll be much worse.
Okay? Thanks.
Oh, and the same goes for all of the characters.

The Plot--
The world is not as we know it. Controlled by scientists, not politicians. And each city is enormous, spanning thousands of miles with schools, homes, and other buildings. But in this world there are only four cities such as this, each of these cities millions of miles apart from the others. The only thing in between these enormous cities is wilderness- raw and, well... wild. None of the cities control these areas, and the only human beings in this forest are the few tiny and scattered camps of those who do not wish to live a city life anymore. Oh, and was it mentioned that each of these cities are not exactly friendly with eachother? No. They would be considered enemies. All pitted against eachother, with no allies, no treaties in sight, no nothing.

The city of Rikei is easily the largest of the four cities. And this is where the story takes place.

Up high on a tall hill overlooking the enormous city of Rikei is the Science Compound. A big, intimidating, plain white building with high walls reinforced with both five-inch-thick steel and a few scattered and barricaded windows. There are four wings of the Science Compound, each dedicated to a specific area of importance. The first is Technology. The second is the section where all matters of 'government' are dealt with. The third, Medicine. And the fourth, Research and Development. Out of all four wings, the fourth is the one that is known little about. Everything that happens in the fourth wing stays secure in there, and all the scientists work in shifts of two weeks (and getting two weeks off in between), sleeping in the fourth wing for the duration of their shift. Currently in charge of the scientists working in the fourth wing is a man named Keitaro, who has no wife or family. Just a younger sister named Mika. Before him was his father, who has since died.

But what the public- and the scientists outside the fourth wing- don't know is that the Research and Development department is just a cover for what is truly going on. Out of fear of being attacked by one of the other three cities, and out of the desire to be the best city on the planet, the scientists have decided to begin conducting odd sorts of experiments. Human experiments. The experiments, at their most basic and primitive stages, consisted of taking large amount of children under their wing and keeping them in the Fourth Wing. Attempts were made to mutate the children, but the children would always die shortly after the experiments began. After many trail-and-errors, the scientists of the fourth wing began to grow more knowledgeable towards what they were doing. And so, after four years of searching for a baby born with a unique quality they had come to call "elastic DNA" (in actuality it was a mutation which left the child with incredibly weak DNA strands- ones that could be easily manipulated without causing the child to perish or suffer), the scientists finally found one- a four week old baby girl who had yet to be named. One scientist was sent to retrieve her and kill her family, and came back to the compound successful. And thus their first real experiment started, and they named her as such- first creation, or 'Daiichi Soushi.'

And that is where and when it all started.

"Ah! Uhm.. well... that'd have to be Mika. Without a doubt!"


Story Of My ▬ Life™

Around the time the subject 'Daiichi Soushi' began to show signs of resenting the scientists, they began to search for a new subject just in case Daiichi were to get too out of hand, or if she were to fail. The boy they found was incredibly ill, his DNA strands so weak that they were practically coming apart at the seams. In fact, if not for their stepping-in it was without a doubt that the boy would have died within the next few weeks. However, there were a few differences between him and the previous experiment. One, he was a male. Two, he was much older than Daiichi had been when they obtained him (she a few weeks, he five years). Three, he already had a name. Kazuko.

Of course, the scientists needed to dispose of Kazuko's family as well. They went to his small home and killed his family and then proceeded to burn down the house, plucking Kazuko from the flames. A father had been the only family member they had killed. They thought nothing of it at the time, in fact, they believed that it had been a family of just Kazuko and his father. But they had been wrong; Kazuko had a mother. She just worked all day long, so the scientists had never caught a glimpse of her.

Then Kazuko was carted off to the home of the head scientist of the time, Keitaro's father. He was kept their and treated as if he was their own son until Daiichi's death, when he was approximately age fifteen. Then, Kazuko was carted off to the Fourth Wing and put into cryogenic see-through chamber, and his mutations began. (All of his memories of living in that house were erased, and so were the memories that Mika had of that time.) Instead of the 'Assassin' gene they had weaved into Daiichi, they chose to do something different with him, as times were changing and there was no longer need for so strong a being on the planet. No. Instead of making Kazuko an 'Assassin' type, they began to weave him back together as a 'Guardian' type. One with the ability to calm and protect. To hold enormous strength, but to only use it in order to protect others, and not to harm anybody.

Unlike the testing with Daiichi, everything went smoothly. Kazuko's body accepted all of his new traits and abilities with no hitches, and when he was allowed the few privileged hours weekly to watch a pre-selected movie, he never attempted to escape. But, then again, he wouldn't have had a chance to if he so chose. Ever since the incidents with Daiichi the Fourth Wing had beefed up their security. All scientists took shifts of two weeks on the job, two weeks off. Whenever Kazuko was to be transported to the white room in which he would watch a movie and exercise, a steel visor would be placed over his eyes, and both his hands would be clasped together behind his back in reinforced titanium holds.

But most important of all- if ever Kazuko's eyes were to open, the red security button is to be pressed instantly. This button causes a 'lock-down mode,' bringing five-inch-thick titanium plating to enclose Kazuko's cryogenic chamber and forcing all windows and doors to be closed with the same material. This is not because they believe Kazuko will try to escape, but rather it's because of the cold, murderous look in his eyes whenever he opens them.



Thê ¤ Wåy ¤ Mÿ Mïnd Wørks

Kazuko's personality is a bit on the odd side. During the initial escape from the compound he could only be seen one way: murderous. However, Kazuko is not a mean person, by any means. In fact, he is probably one of the most caring and considerate people to ever exist. Unlike the first experiment, Kazuko's DNA mutations did not leave him with a resentment for anybody or anything, if anything, it left him more compassionate than normal. After all, these scientists had saved his life, right?

So, Kazuko's personality while not actually trying to get something done is easily described in one word: goofy. He can be clumsy, looks over things easily, trusts people too easily, and never thinks twice before doing something. But Kazuko is no idiot, and he is quick to know when a dangerous situation is at hand, or when it is required to not act like his normal, goofy self. These situations are when the mutations he was given shine through the brightest.



Åll This Weîght I ›Çarrÿ ♦

Here is a list of the abilities, or 'powers' that the Scientists had given
Kazuko, each with a description beside them. There is justified
reasoning behind each of the abilities given to Kazuko: the scientists
thought long and hard about it. They didn't just randomly shove mutations
into his DNA.

× Omni-linguism.
In order to obtain full knowledge of a foreign language, all Kazuko has
to do is listen to a single sentence of the language he wished to learn.
Then, the rest just comes to him.

› Superhuman Intelligence
Self-explanatory? Kazuko chooses to never use his full intelligence, unless he finds himself or others that he is supposed to be protecting in danger.

× Abnormal Strength.
Note that it is not 'superhuman strength.' Kazuko's strength level is above that of normal humans, but is still not enough to be considered 'super-human.'

› Empathy
This is the ability to be able to easily read the emotions others are going through, making it easier to decipher whether or not somebody is deceiving him.

× Night Vision.

Failed Attempts

These abilities are ones that the scientists had scheduled to give Kazuko, but because of his early escape, none of them were fully developed. The scientists do not know whether or not Kazuko actually has any of these powers, or if he can use them.

› Domination and Mind-Control.

× Time Manipulation.

› Teleportation.

× Accelerated Healing.

&I ›Don't‹ Think That ›They'd‹ Understand
This is probably the most important part! Due to the odd way Kazuko escaped from the Science Compound, he was left severely mutated. As will be better explained in the first post, a vat of toxic substances was toppled over, and Kazuko was splashed by it. The result was not death, as was the case with the scientists who were splattered with the same substance, but rather a very odd type of mutation that none of the scientists had ever seen happen before: scales.
The picture to the right is before the mutation, by the way. Kazuko was left with dark scales of this color in splotches around his body: under his left eye, a trail snaking around his neck, down his right arm and spreading out across his chest, and a big area of his left thigh. Other small spots include on the bottoms of his feet and on his left arm.

Story Of My ▬ Life™

To her father, Mika was a miracle child. Her mother had been weak ever since some timeafter Keitaro’s birth and right before she was born, her mother had gotten extremely sick. The doctors said that Mika had gotten all tangled up in the womb and by some miracle they were able to get her out of the womb safely, but her mom didn’t make it. All of the stress made her moms sickness worse and she was unable to recover.

After that, Mika was always a weak child. In the early years, she was always fainting and was getting fevers at least once a weak. Her father thought it might have been a variation of her mother sickness given to her through the genes she was born with. As she grew, though, it went away little by little but never completely. Even now, if she puts her body under too much stress she’ll get sick, just like she always used too.

Mika grew up in the dark of all of her father and brother’s operations. They had told her that her father was a scientist, yes, but they didn’t tell her what his job description included . . . basically experimenting and torturing innocent children. But what no one but her father and brother knew was that Mika, herself, was the inspiration of experiments. Her father thought that if he could find a way to manipulate genes safely and make “perfect people” he could then use the technique to change Mika’s genes and free her from the sickness that took another of his loved ones.

After her father died, her brother immediately took his place and she had got used to living alone. She would always do her best for her brother’s sake. She hates it when he worries about her so she learned to cook, clean, and she learned how to live very independently. But along with this, comes the loneliness. Living in a big house all by herself got to her some times. Sometimes she’d sleep in her parents bed; her brother didn’t allow her, or anyone, to go in there. He felt it was best to keep it the way it was since they died. But she didn’t care. She did what she could to ease her pain.

If that wasn’t enough, when she was 6, she skipped three grades, first, second, and third. It was like her brain was making up for her weak body. And throughout high school she was teased for looking so young. But she never told anyone this . . . not even her closest friends, though she didn’t have many. And not even her brother knew of the trials she had been going through.

Thê ¤ Wåy ¤ Mÿ Mïnd Wørks

Mika cares, sometimes too much , for things. She’s smart and independent, but that doesn’t keep her from wanting the benefits of a shoulder to cry on. Even though if she had one, she’d probably care too much about it and not want to bother that person. But there are also times when she’s carefree and acts dorky. That’s one of her true sides that only a very small number of people have actually seen. In school she keeps to herself and around people she doesn’t know to well, she’s quiet and isolated, but deep down, there’s a side of her that’s kind, carefree, out-going and warm that’s trying to make it’s way out.

†Wøuld You Like Tø Know »Møre:
Just a few other facts about her and I'll add to them if I think of anything else:
♦ Mika's father talked to her right before he died, telling her that if something ever happened, she was to use the rifles that he gave her. He put them under her bed so she knew where to find them. "You are to use them for anything that scares or threatens you," he said. What she didn't know was that he had given them to her just in case one of his experiments had gotten lose and came looking for her.

Åll This Weîght I ›Çarrÿ ♦

No, Mika doesn't have any superpowers like Kazuko or the other characters can, but she does have a few talents she keep locked away:
→ Mika had a powerful brain and her father taught her how to hack computers way back when and she has been utilizing and strengthening that skill.
→ Let's just say she can shoot a target down pretty well. (She uses the gun her father left behind for her.)

Story Of My ▬ Life™
Ryouta comes from a long line of elementals that has lasted since before medieval times, though he’s not aware of it. His ancestors used to be highly respected and very close to the leaders of the world, but as time went on, science became more important and people became less and less interested in ways if magic. And so the Kinsei family lowered and lowered in status and they fell into the backdrop. No longer accepted as the great wizards they were, they, too, turned to science.

But no one in the family line ever lost their love for their magic powers they had, always gathering on special occasions and creating amazing spectacles. Everyone loved their abilities; everyone except Ryouta’s father.

You see, Ryouta’s father used to love his magic just like everyone else, but there was an accident. Ryouta’s mother was unable to do magic. This wasn’t uncommon, as Ryouta’s family often fell in love and were married to “normals”, which is what they called those who did not command such power. Anyway, at one party where the whole family had gathered, some of the wizards had had a little too much booze before the main event and when they began, the magic got out of hand, and instead of causing beauty, it caused destruction. Sadly, Ryouta’s mother was caught in the flare and died. His father blamed and hated magic ever after, never using it again, hating the very thing that used to bring him joy.

This happened when Ryouta was two, and when Ryouta was six, he, to his father’s dismay, discovered his own powers. Yes, Ryouta had a very scientific mind, thanks to his father, but he also loved the magic that coursed through him. His father, furious, forbade him from ever using it.

But with Ryouta’s curious mind, there was no way he was just going to forget about the amazing things he could do. He continued to practice in secret, never telling anyone and it was ten years before anyone discovered his doings. But, unfortunately, when he was sixteen, his father got suspicious and discovered his hideout. His father then gave him a choice, magic or family. He loved his family and at first that’s what he chose. He stopped training himself in secret and focused on his studies, but after a while, he couldn’t deny the part of him that loved the elements and he started practicing again. This time however, his father found out more quickly and immediately disowned Ryouta.

And thus, he was on his own, working at birthday parties and restaurants to make money and living in an old abandoned house, from the old days, that he found on the outskirts of Rikei. Amazingly, he was happy with this life, even though it could get very lonely for him sometimes.

Things changed for the magician, however, when he was eighteen. He happened upon a strange girl, passed out in the sewer system, which is what he used to get around and practice his magic. He had a sense that she wasn’t like other people . . . maybe it was because of the huge gun laying beside her; but, anyway, he took her to his place and let her rest. Turns out, she was a government experiment that escaped and just needed a place to be herself . . . who knew, right?

Thê ¤ Wåy ¤ Mÿ Mïnd Wørks
It’s ironic that Ryouta is very scientific, since he uses magic, but usually he thinks with equations and with patterns. He’s a nice guy and very generous, especially, when something is done for him. He understands people, and is a very good judge of character. He’s laid back, and though he may worry over things, he doesn’t show it.

When he does get angry, he gets angry. He can get very very serious and when he does, he isn’t the greatest person to be around. His powers grows stronger and though he can control them, he can’t control himself. Usually when this happens, Daiichi knocks him out, thus calming him down, solving that problem.

Åll This Weîght I ›Çarrÿ ♦

› The Elements
Ryouta can control all four elements: water, earth, fire, and air; plus lightning and ice, and other byproducts of the elements.

› Telekinesis
One other thing he can do is move things without touching them, that is, with his mind. It is very rare to find a wizard that can master this power, but, without knowing he could, Ryouta started teaching himself this technique, and with a little luck, he was able to learn more then he ever thought he could.

Story Of My ▬ Life™
Keitaro knew what his life would be life since he was very young. His father brought little Kei into the his world of science at a very young age and sometimes it seems that he’s almost brainwashed when it comes to his work. After his father died, Keitaro took over every aspect of the company, becoming a total workaholic and leaving Mika to spend most of her days alone.

Thê ¤ Wåy ¤ Mÿ Mïnd Wørks
When Keitaro is working, you would not think that he is a man of many emotions. He is expressionless and to his coworkers, he seems almost too determined. But, when he is with Mika, it’s a different story. To her he is a kind and generous person (for now). When he is with her, he smiles and actually seems cordial. Not to mention, he has a bit of a LITTLE SISTER COMPLEX.

Åll This Weîght I›Çarrÿ ♦

Intellectual – Keitaro, like Mika, also has a powerful mind, but it sees only the scientific side of things. He never dreams of fantasy or romance or anything of the sort.

Technology - Kei has designed and built many weapons and machines during his time at the company. This includes bombs, guns, and the tech he uses for the experiments and such.
