It had been a couple of weeks since the Cabal occupation had begun. The average person lived in chronic fear of leaving their house and even most shinobi only ventured out with purpose. The streets had been claimed by the vagrants and the insane, well most of them. There was one mentally deficient individual who had taken to hiding, surrounding herself with everything that was common place and ‘safe’ in order to keep her psyche from caving in further and succumbing to the destructive force that came with having nothing to lose. Yume busied herself with experiments, tests, and reports. It had been a long time since she was able to conduct proper research without interruption and she certainly wasn’t about to miss this opportunity. In the back of her mind she contemplated how her next meeting with Sousuke would go, however the point that he was locked outside due to the Occupation was never taken into account. No. In Yume’s mind there was no trouble outside the doors of Keystone. Sousuke was away on business, Shinji was using this time to train with Ika and become better companions, Shuu was settling into the hospital and brining order to the long abandoned roll of Med-Chief. There was no other purpose for her outside of the facility and if something came up then certainly someone would come to fetch her.
Underneath one of the tables, curled up on the lower shelf, was CuRua as he kept a wary eye on his deranged counterpart. There was nothing he could do to pull her from her delusion that wouldn’t throw her into a fit. It had happened once before when he ventured to encourage her to leave Keystone and assist with the wreckage and chaos that was being caused by the unsavory members of Sunnan society. She had responded by grabbing the nearest tray of samples she was working on and throwing it against the wall as she screamed and knocked over her examination bench. It wasn’t until he became human and let her beat futilely against his chest that she calmed down enough to collapse into a mess of tears and eventually fall asleep. When she awoke, she was back in the farce and he dared not to try again.
A pleasant tune bubbled out from between her rosy lips whilst she dropped different solutions into petridishes and examined other results under a microscope, each time recording what she saw. A stack of three notebooks sat off to one side and she was quickly filling up a fourth with sketches and theories. Settling down on a stool with a sigh and a smile, she leans down and beckons for her fox to join her. Stepping out from his hiding place, he leaps to her lap and rubs his face against her stomach in a show of affection while she pet down his head and over his back, occasionally stopping to scratch at the base of his ears.
I’m starting to think that it is impossible to achieve a blend of two bloodlines. It will be either one or the other. I have tried to blend the Uchiha samples with my own and every time they either annihilate each other resulting in a null or one remains triumphant. It’s unique though, that in the event of one surfacing as dominant that the secondary doesn’t go away completely. I suppose the next step would be to try and control the dominant strain and see if the secondary would flourish. What do you think?
His orange eyes glance up to meet her emerald pools with a silent forlorn gaze. It was evidence of her deterioration that she didn’t communicate with him via their minds and chose to speak aloud instead. He couldn’t even hear her thoughts unless she was asleep, then he could hear her mind screaming to surface once more. He could hear her sanity crying for her proposed mate and to be freed of her chains of delirium. With a giggle, Yume leans down and kisses his nose, scooping him up in her arms as she stood and began to use one hand to put things away for the day. The air was once more filled with idle chatter, expounding on her results and not really talking to anyone though he listened all the same. When her workstation was clear and sanitized, they walked down the hall to a room that had been salvaged as a living quarter. Place him on the couch that had become their bed, she changes into a lab frock to sleep in and curls up under a blanket with him held close to her chest. The attire was nearly too long for her but the scent of the owner lingered on the fabric and provided comfort. For any who didn't have the olfactory expertise of an Inuzuka, the clan insignia of a hexagon surrounding a horse's head would convey the same sentiment.
I know you want to go home CuRua, and I promise it will be soon. I need to finish this research. I need to find out how bloodlines work and how they can be controlled. I need to become human… I’m not a beast… I’m not…
…well. Make it stop, CuRua… I miss you. I miss training with you. I miss healing the people. I miss my brother. We should be helping the village and finding a way to get Sousuke back. Please CooRoo… I’m still here. Please… I miss you most of all.
The cries had begun as soon as her cognition faded to black and the fennec snuggled closer. It was his duty as a companion to care for his clansmate but it was his love for Yume that made him stay when there was no end in sight. He wouldn’t leave her as long as he still heard those cries; Once they stopped, she would never come back.
