Disclaimer: I do not, in any way shape or form own any of the characters or anything having to do with Gundam Seed. (yah, like you didn't already know that...)
Summary:
Sci-fi AU. A creature is created in the distant future to be used as a biological weapon. Unfortunately, the beast itself is termed vicious and unintelligent as a result of all the conflicting animal and youkai DNA within its blood. It is set to be euthanized; but shortly before it can be the transport ship is destroyed and it is released into the civilian world.
ALSO, this is an AU. There are youkai (demons) as well as humans, and hybrids (welll….there's one hybrid) Let me know if you guys want a background chapter to tell you what this universe is like. It has no gundams and many other different things in this universe.
And, yes, I know I should be working on 'Nicol's New Fate', this was just in the back of my notebook and I hate the urge to put it up.
Hope you all like it!
Hmmmm…
OH, YEAH.
I WON'T finish this unless you guys review!
Five reviews and I'll think of finishing, seven and I will defiantly continue.
SO, if you like it... REVIEW!
thanx you.
Experiment
Chapter 1: Who and What
"Grrr…." Kira snarled and leapt forward; sinewy, clawed paw morphing into a just as sharply clawed hand as it shot out of the small prison to attack his tormentor. The man just smirked and pulled back slightly, looking down at the hanyou caged in front on him. He found it amusing to watch the lithe young teen glare up at him with frosty violet eyes from behind his unruly brown bangs. Almost as amusing as watching his futile attacks on the thick bars containing him.
"Remarkable outcome, Dr. Hibiki." The man said, turning to his companion, "pity the territorial and racial tendencies of the animal and youkai DNA used canceled out its intelligence."
"Indeed, Commander La Creuset. But the youkai DNA was required for the shape shifting abilities and the animal DNA was used to provide forms for it to shift into. We have yet to determine which strand dictates intelligence, so we were forced to make it as it is."
Another thundering snarl ripped through the still air, interrupting the conversation as the object of their scrutiny made itself known.
Creuset frowned slightly. "Does it have to be so violent? Even animals can be trained. We want an obedient and servile weapon, not an insane out of control monster."
"Yes, sir." Hibiki replied, fidgeting slightly. "Like I said before, its human DNA was neutralized. It has no concept of words, language, or obedience. The only command it follows is that of the bloodlust it got from its youkai heritage."
"Pity." Creuset watched the creature through the bars of the cage. It would have looked like a normal human teenager, if not for the inch long claws and animal ears (at the moment, they were those of a cat but they changed depending on his mood). And, of course, its tendency to attack anything that came near it. "Well, at least it has been a useful experiment. Do you have any more need for it, Doctor?"
Startled, Hibiki looked up. "Yes, sir. As you well know, its DNA is very valuable and singular. It was a one in ten million chance of finding a human baby with the right type of blood to be able to handle the combining . We were remarkably lucky. If you want any more of these creatures made, you must allow me to ship the creature to Earth to finish the process."
"I see, and once you are finished, you will no longer have need of it?"
"No sir."
"Good. I will have a shuttle prepped for your departure in two days. Contact me once the process is complete and I will have It disposed of."
"But sir! Two days is awful short notice! And it would be to our advantage to keep the creature around, as a spec-"
"DOCTOR." Creuset did not turn, but his tone clearly made his point. "You have your orders."
Defeated, Hibiki sighed. "Yes sir."
Kira didn't like this, didn't like it at all. He was used to the stares, the tranquilizers, the constant testing; but this pale man was very strange and made him uncomfortable. Long blond hair hung in wavy tresses around the sides of his face, outlining his strange white mask and matching his gold and blue officer's uniform. Every aspect of him seemed bleached, paler and crueler then it would have on any other person. Maybe it was the mask that made Kira uncomfortable; with it, the man seemed emotionless. Or it could have been his height; he was a good six feet tall whereas the hanyou was only about 5'8 when standing to his full human height.
Also, the man….whose name seemed to be 'Sir'…..wasn't scared of him at all! When Kira's claws had been four inches from his face, the guy had kept his cool and even had to audacity to smirk! Not to mention the fact that he seemed to enjoy the lighting rod overly much.
(Kira's 'lightning rod' is a stun stick, a metal staff with a rubber handle that conducts and shoots electricity at the holder's will. The doctors would often use them to control him as the 'specimen')
The masked freak had been standing there poking him for a half hour! It was almost like he was trying to drive Kira into a blood rage! Luckily, Hibike had appeared a few minutes ago and distracted the guy.
Listening to their conversation had been very interesting … and amusing. He had barely been able to stifle his laughter as they discussed his lack of intelligence (his snarling and growling covered it up).They still hadn't realized his viciousness was only an act and that he could indeed understand their entire conversation.
"Good I will have a shuttle prepped for your departure in two days. Contact me once the process is complete and I will have It disposed of."
The second half of their chat struck him with horror, rendering him frozen with shock in his current position; neko ears laid back, claws unsheathed, with eyes glaring glassily at the men from an attack position on all fours in the middle of his enclosure.
Disposed of? They're gonna kill me!
So wrapped up in his own thoughts was he that he didn't even acknowledge it when the men left. Nor did he acknowledge, or even notice, the odd look directed at him by 'Sir'. (Given because he was still threatening to attack the spot the two had been in a few minutes ago).
It was over an hour later that he snapped back to reality, dropping into a more comfortable position on his hands and knees in favor of his threatening half crouch. He had been thinking for along time and still could not find a way to escape. A low, sad sigh escaped the young creature as he transformed into a fox and curled up on the small blanket in the corner.
At least he had two more days to think of a way to save himself. Right?
TBC?
Sorry for the short chapter, it was supposed to have more to it, but this seemed to fit by itself.
Also, does anyone know if Hibiki is spelled right?
Review!
