I Broke Keyes
"Well then, how should I say this." I let out a sigh. "I guess I'll keep it simple. I can see glimpses of the future."
BAM. Jaws drop to the floor. Well, in Keyes's case, his entire body did.
"I guess the Lieutenant had too much shock for one day," I say, looking at a small pool of blood that was starting to form from under his forehead. I get up from my seat and then turned over the Lieutenant.
'Eve, turn in the quest.'
[Sure thing Alia]
[*Ding* quest turned in. Reward returned]
[*Ding* Skill 'Hand's of Nirvana : MAX' acquired]
'Show me the description of the skill'
[Hand's of Nirvana : MAX
This skill gives the knowledge of the body's acupuncture points and gives you the ability to heal people with your hands. Also teaches the user how to perform the process of Nirvana, which rebirths the body, healing all injuries and purifying the body. Uses mana proportionate to the injury]
'Nice. Let's put it to the test. Eve, turn off my mana regeneration. Hand's of Nirvana' I think as I put my hand on Keye's forehead. My hands start to glow a golden green. I feel my mana starts to drain as healing energy is produced from my hands, healing Keye's head. When I remove my hands after a few seconds, the wound is no longer there, with only dry blood being the only sign of the wound. I let out a short sigh before checking my status.

'Huh? I can get Exp from healing people? That nice. And only 4 mana for a small head wound. Seems a little overpowered to me.'
[Its because you have the MAX version of the skill, Alia]
'Ah, that makes sense'
"So you can heal people as well." Dr. Halsey says as she wakes up from her stupor. "You really are an interesting one. Appearing and disappearing weapons, Future sight, healing abilities, an AI. Ha," she lets out a long sigh. "What else do can you do. Wait, don't answer that. You're going to make my headache worse."
"Good choice," I say.
"So, what did you see in the future? Was it worth it?"
"You mean John? And the other Spartans?" she nods. "Yes. They became the saviors of humanity."
She visibly relaxes at that remark. "Good. As long as it's worth it." We both lapsed into silence. "So, why do you want to join the spartan 2 program?"
"There are many reasons" I start, "But the main reason is that it is where the fun is."
"PfwHahaha" Halsey begins to laugh hysterically. "Hahahahaaaaa, ha."
I raise an eyebrow at her behavior.
"Sorry about that. It's just, I wasn't expecting that answer. So what else do you want to do?"
"Well, it be helpful if you could introduce me to HIGHCOM. Or at least someone with authority in ONI. As soon as possible, of course."
"I see. Well then. Toran, you heard her. Plot a course to Earth."
[Of course Doctor. But what about the other subjects?]
"They aren't as important as this one is. There are other people who can scout out the subjects."
[I see. Starting up fusion engines. Please brace yourselves for atmospheric escape]
We lifted up Lieutenant Keyes and strapped him in the closest chair. Then we did the same.
[Escaping the atmosphere in Three ... Two ... One ... We are now out of Eridanus Two's atmosphere. Calculating Slipstream coordinates. Route calculated. Entering Slipspace in Three ... Two ... One ... Slipspace entered. ETA to Planet Earth is 2 Weeks, 5 hours, 56 minutes, 16 seconds]
"Thank you, Toran," said Halsey.
[You are welcome, Doctor]
"Well then, let's enter cryosleep, shall we?" says Halsey, before she turns around and goes toward the cryo chamber. I quickly get up and follow her. Staying awake for two weeks in this cramped ship sounded quite boring.
{1131 Hours, August 31, 2517, Outskirts of the Epsilon Eridani System}
I awoke to the hissing of my cryo-chamber as it depressurized and the hydraulics opened the door. A hand-stretched into the tube as a voice said "Do you need help?". I looked up and saw Lieutenant Keyes in full glory, buck naked from top to bottom. I grab his hand, sitting up slowly, the gel sticking to my back, refusing to let go, coughing up globs of cryo inhalant. I gag, before retching my empty stomach at the disgusting taste of the fluid.
"Damn, they really weren't lying when they said it tasted like lime-flavored mucus," I say with a raspy voice. I grab my throat with my hand before activating my Hand's of Nirvana and massaging it. I feel energy return to my body as my muscles are revitalized by my healing energy. I stand up quickly bumping my body against Keyes's.
"Umm," Keye's began, "You should be more mindful of your body." He turned his head away, his face blushing slightly. I tilt my head in confusion before I realize what he meant. A mischievous smile blooms on my face.
"But it doesn't matter," I say, squeezing my small chest against his lower torso. "After all, you see naked bodies all the time. And you wouldn't be turned on by a little girl would you?" His dick twitches at that remark, causing me to reel away in shock. I slap him by reflex.
"Pervert!" I yell. "Lolicon! Petaphile!" My voice echoes throughout the cryo chamber.
"As amusing as this is," I hear Dr. Halsey say, "Can you be a little quieter. You're hurting my ears." She then looked over at Keyes, who seemed to be in a daze. His cheek was rapidly swelling. "And apparently, you broke Keyes as well. Congratulations." She gives me a slow clap.
"He deserved it," I say, slightly disgusted. "What kind of middle age man gets horny at seeing a naked little girl." I kick Keyes in the shin, causing him to jolt out of his stupor from the pain. I walk away from the lolicon and enter a shower stall.
