Maybe next time

"Sorry guys, but to be a ninja you need to be train at birth and be born in a clan which don't exist anymore and I'm ugh ah. . ." Duivic halted his word as he sees the kids become gloomy not knowing what to do next.

What should I do? Wait, if they where able to get me wouldn't that imply that they also caught the rest? The rendezvous would be compromised. The professor did say to start the project as soon as I meet up with the rest, but I don't have the package anymore, I wouldn't have mind giving this kid the special rank GA3. . .ah. . .Duivic then realize that he still have something to give.

"I can give you something to enhance your muscles and jump like those ninjas but I'm nothing but a researcher so I don't have any technique like shadow clone or shadow walk like that" says Duivic calmly.

True enough Duivic is a researcher for a big company, the company has tried to go on every direction including body enhancement trying to make super soldier, and was able to produce a formula that enhance the body without any side effects, but it's not yet known to the public. The researcher team was also able to formulate better solution and was able to make a 3rd success being it the 3rd generation of gene alternation hence the name GA3.

The package maybe lost but Duivic still has his suitcase with 15 vials on unknown GA formula. The professor just stack what he can in this suitcase but was able to put some vials the only problem is they are not labeled so I'm not sure what generation are this to begin with but it shouldn't matter since even kids can take it with no harm. Duivic was thinking really hard on what is his next step, his body was able to survive a deadly poison but because of it his unable to move his left leg, the research team that he works for was finally getting a recognition and able to establish it's own guild but was attack by the government army and was hunted down by another guild.

I would most likely be living in seclusion now, I should just use them as a reward for this kids, then find a safer place, even if this are GA1 they should still be able to grow if they train hard since the strongest people are still the GA1 testers.

"OK, now fall in line and I can give my gift to you guys"

Duivic was happily readying the vials for him to inject to the 10 jolly boys but none was coming closer.

"Cru"

"huh? why are calling out my name for?"

"you wanted to be a ninja"

"so do you"

"Kyzan, I mean you're the leader"

"that's why I should be last"

"that doesn't make sense"

The argument was not stopping anytime soon. Duivic was not surprised of this bickering on who should go 1st, he was an assistant of a well known professor in his field so his use to giving shots on testers, and when it comes to kids this kind of things always happen even for young adult who are newly recruits for guilds.

If only professor waited for us to establish a guild before fighting the Healer Guild we wouldn't be hiding from the government. Ah, I should it some pizza while i wait for them to have some courage, hmmm, I was sure they brought tons of boxes when they arrive.

"uhm kid" says Duivic to the boy who is just watching his friend pushing each other.

"yes?" the kid answered as he slowly back away, Jose never like to join on any argument so he normally just step aside and wait for his friend to come up with a solution on any of the problems they have, but this time Jose thinks he had made a big mistake as the man was calling for him while holding that big needle.

"the pizza you guys have, can i have some slice?"

"we already ate all of it, while you where looking at the floor telling as the story of a GA guild running a company" Jose was trembling in fear not wanting to be the 1st to get the shot but still answered Duivic's question.

Indeed Duivic was talking to himself for a long while when he was deciding if giving the formula was a right decision. Duivic was sadden and hungry on what has happen. Ah I should have ask for some slice try to find a new future for myself. Only regret can be seen now on Duivic's face.

"We still have some chip's and other snacks if you like, I can go get them but" Jose gather all his courage to go close to Duivic and whispered "but i get to be last"

"Okay" Duivic answered with a soft smile, ah being bribe by kids.

^^^^

Hours has passed and the kids where going home. None of them had the courage to go 1st and get injected to a formula so they decided to make another contest on who gets to be 1st.

"Master, I unlock the food room so just take what you need, will take the gift another time, can you wait for that time"

"yes, but I'm not a master so please stop calling me that and just call me mister"

"okay, some of the tinies stays here to protect our base so you can just ask them to help you in anything"

"Tinies huh, are this . . ." Duivic was a little curious on this small robots, he knows something similar but are human size and very rare also it seems this thing are more flexible on orders they get and feels like they think on there own.

"Tinies" Kyzan shouted. "they are tinies, please don't call them you know, they don't like being called that. They where made by my brother and Emil's brother, they left it here to protect our base"

"Anyway all rooms are open now so just feel free to wa. . .go around the base, bye mister"

"did he just corrected himself after looking at my leg?" Duivic was again contemplating on his action. I'm suited for kids, I should leave as soon as I give them my thanks.

Duivic was now alone in the cave as he look around everything was label very simple, food room, game room, bathroom and sleeping room.

"hey Greg"

"Need something?"

"The guy we who was carrying the package we retrieve, it say's here his a researcher and was part of a research team of the Healer guild"

"yeah, I remember him giving GA3 shots last time" answered Greg.

"So why did we have to be so cautious that time? I mean the whole research team was easily captured my the army for illegal research, It doesn't feel right hiring a guild and using all rank members just to retrieve one package with just a simple researcher" Ask Emong

"Ah, reports says he was a GA2 special rank tester" Greg answered nonchalantly.

"So they still exist until now, no wonder the government took them down, I thought the Healer guild just didn't want a competition" says another guy named Luis

"Berde is way bigger then the Healer, what competition?"

"Well it doesn't really matter now, we retrieve the package and the hunt for that monster was taken to the government, they might need to ask us for help once they confirm his location, but who cares about that we don't have any assignment from the alliance so we can take it easy"

"It's been 5 decades since the 1st GA was made and yet the world still doesn't a clue about it"

"Just go pack and sleep, tomorrow we need to move out"

"yes boss"

"Hey Greg?"

"the GA2 is way better than the GA3 right, why is it illegal when the government where the one who gave it out?" asked a man who seems to be the youngest among them.

"well it was 3 decades after the GA1 and results says it was compatible for young ones, they taught using the newly made GA was great if they started young and the government started recruiting younger generation and just tested them, they didn't train any of them and just went on injecting them. . .ah I'm sleepy. . .in short GA2 testers are rebels even the GA2 formula was destroyed so they wont be able to make more of it, also all GA2 testers eyes turn red and goes to a 'Berserk Mode' which can't differentiate an ally or a foe. . .so it was seen as a danger and the government tried to erase it"

"i don't get it"

"Just ask someone else tomorrow, I don't feel like going on to every detail of the GA2, just remember when you see one run or call for back up, cuz I have never a met GA2 lower than a S-rank and "berserk mode' makes them a rank higher, well night now"

The you man was just standing unknown what to do next, his leader just went to sleep after giving him some bits and pieces of information. So are GA2 testers that bad guys?
