Code: Execute

Code: Missing 3.0

"Yeah--Whoa!"

She stood up and began to push him into the bathroom before stumbling a bit.  A slight throb in her forehead caused her to wince before Dazai asked, "Does your head still hurt?"

She nodded and held a hand to her head before saying, "Yeah... but it's much better now."

Once she was steadied he walked into the bathroom before saying, "Let's get changed so you can lay down, okay?"

She nodded before he walked into the bathroom, flipped the lights on, and closed the door.

She somewhat mechanically changed clothes in the moonlit room before walking over to the large balcony door that overlooked the same harbor she had seen while staking out the factory.  Only now, the sea was illuminated by a somber crescent moon and its starry companions littered the sky.

She had always loved how the moon reflected off the water.  It always entranced her. 

But after her nightmare just now, it only seemed to make her tense and melancholic.

She felt two arms encircle her waist before a head rested on her shoulder. She was used to him randomly holding onto her, but not like this. She turned to face him with an eyebrow raised as he had a cat-like expression decorating his face.

She just rolled her eyes and accepted his bold contact before a thought crossed her mind, "What if they woke up tomorrow and he had her wrapped in his arms?"

The thought brought a blush to her face as she imagined being held by the man who she realized she had a crush on.

She turned her head to face the ocean stretching in front of them before saying, "Are you sure you want to hear about that night? I don't want you to end up hating me..."

Dazai nodded and said, "If I can't accept a few drops of blood in your past, then I have no right to tell you about my bloodsoaked history." She nodded before saying, "It was actually a night like this with the moon and the ocean in front of me...

...

She was 15 at the time. A young, obstinate, caged bird with no sense of care. She was alone. No one was ever a friend to her, no one was ever a parent to her, and she'd probably never feel the joy of a lover.

Every day she went to school was a day she risked being picked on or made fun of. Though the bullying died down after an incident when she was younger. The first time she used Firewall was that day in her fourth year of primary school, and she'd put two kids her age into intensive care.

The last time she used Firewall was the night of her "accident," though everything that happened that night she'd done willingly. That was also the first time she'd used her ability to it's fullest... She made three new codes that night, all three were so destructive that she was labeled a SS class unknown ability user.

That night she had used Code: Execute for the first and last time. Never again would she ever do anything like that to someone...

It was supposed to be a normal night by the ports. She'd heard there was a meteor shower, and she'd wanted to watch it from the abandoned ports all alone in the solitude that usually comforted her. But the two children wanted to be with her, so they followed her to the docks and sat with her.

They were the first two people to ever show her any love, and she returned it ten-fold. Never had she loved anything as much as she loved the twins beside her.

It was fine for the first hour. She sat along the old and half-rotten dock with a young and bubbly Yuna to her left, and the cold and silent Hiru to her right. Fraternal twins who couldn't be any more different, but had both come to look up to the girl sitting between them.
