As early as 6am Mie was already in the hall and checking her schedule but the schedule assigned to them would start at 8am, she was able to grab a coffee from the pantry and was now on one of the couch playing her DS.
Inoue and Aya sit beside her but before they can settle themselves they were paged to go to the head office of the training camp. They were given with additional information and update on the case they are currently handling.
After the debriefing they were told to gather on the 15LG where the arena and trainings are being held. All soldiers were already complete, Kim, Mie, Aya and Inoue were able to hear the soldiers being directed to their group members.
Each team are divided into 7 members consist of 1 girl and then 6 men. Each team would have a colonel and lieutenant colonel, then the rest of them are major. There were 4 teams total, Okada was able to see them approaching. Mie and Inoue tried to hide their faces using her baseball cap.
âOkada sensei, who would be my group mates and we needed to at least have one of us be assigned to where Yokoyama and Kazuya isâ Mie asked in hushed voice âGomen Mie-chan but group selection was made by draw lots and you would be in Ohnoâs teamâ Okada looked at Mie apologetically then Inoue sigh and somewhat relief âwhat about me Sensei?â
Okada look for Inoue then answered âyou would be with Yokoyama and Kazuyaâ Mie was worried and then asked Okada if they can be switched but Okada says it is not possible. Inoue give her a reassuring smile and says âI would take care of myself I promiseâ that is also the same time when Yokoyama along with Kazuya started a speech âwell, well, well look what we have here girls are always lateâ then followed by Kazuya âsensei arenât you going to give them a punishment rules are rules right?â
Aya tried to hold Mieâs gaze while Kim whispered to her to stay calm, Mie tried so she take a lungful of air and breathe out. Okada smiled and says âno, they are not late they were called by General Garciaâ Yokoyama smiled then look at Mieâs direction
âYou are too small to be a soldier who let you in?â then laugh along with Kazuya, Mei smiled sweetly at them and answered âApparently I have been hired as a soldier not because of my height but because of my brains and not to mention my ability to wipe everything clean. What about you guys, who hired a lunatic and an idiot such as yourselves?â
Okada blow his whistle âThat is enough soldiers go to your assigned team thatâs an orderâ Yokoyama was all red like a tomato while kazuya is holding him back while glaring at Mieâs direction âI donât like sharp tongue like youâ Mie just answered them with a smug then Yokoyama says âSensei I want that bitch to be in my teamâ
Okada shake his head âInoue is the one assigned to your teamâ and give Yokoyama and Kazuya a dismissive look. Then he introduce Inoue to her team then faced Mie âready to see them?â Mie just nodded Okada smiled âyouâll survive, I know you wouldâ Mie just give him a nervous smile again.
Sho and Ohno was pacing in front of Toma, Nino, Jun and Aiba, they have been doing it for about 5minutes now. Aiba grab Shoâs shirt and speaks âSho-chan can you sit down, we are getting dizzy alreadyâ Sho nodded and settled himself beside Aiba then whispered âI really have a feeling She is hereâ then they saw Okada sensei approaching.
âColonel Ohno, Iâd like you to meet the rose of your team Major Miyamotoâ Sho and Aiba exchanged a meaningful look and stood up immediately to meet Okada and the girl halfway. While Ohno tried to assess the small girl behind Okada.
The Mie bow her head low and introduced herself âMajor Miyamoto Mie, please to meet you allâ then offer her hands. Ohno smiled and grab her hand but instead of shaking it he kissed the back of her palm and introduced himself âColonel Ohno-â but got cut off by the Girl âsmooth move Colonel Ohno Satoshiâ
Then held out her hand and face Nino âMajor Ninomiya Kazunariâ then Jun âMajor Matsumoto Junâ then face Toma and with a meaningful look, while recognition was all in Tomaâs face âMajor Ikuta Tomaâ then faced Aiba and Sho last âMajor Masaki Aiba and Lieutenant Colonel Sakurai Shoâ Sho and Aiba was shocked but still held out their hands for her to shake.
The Girl smiled wickedly when she held hands with Sho âI already know all of youâ then face everyone âyou set the score to beat on all the training hereâ then eyed Aiba âNot to mention the top team under General Kitagawa Johnny of Nagoyaâ everyone is shocked and donât know what to say while Okada smiled because he is enjoying their expression then shake his head âand here is where I would leave you, by the way Mie-chan you would need to vacate the quarters and transfer to your teamâs placeâ
Mie pouted âsensei -â Okada held up a hand and says âsorry hands tight, they needed those quarters for the lower rank soldiers who are also training under 18LGâ then he called in someone using his communicator and a soldier handed her, her bag then Okada smile apologetically âGomen ne Mie-chanâ while patting her head.
Mie sighed and look so helpless, Ohno smiled then says âlet us bring your things to our common room we still have all morning to get to know youâ Mie just nodded and follow them. Toma not saying anything grabbed her bag, she is about to argue but when she noticed it was Toma, she bit her tongue and diverted her gaze on different direction instead.
They reached the common room Mie tried to familiarize herself with it. No one is talking so Aiba cleared his throat then stated âMi- Major Miyamoto you can share room with one of us, it would be your choiceâ Toma offer his room âI can share my room if she liked I can stay hereâ but Sho stand up and stated with finality âShe would be staying in my roomâ Nino, Ohno and Jun look up to him and they can see that Mie and Sho are looking at each other fiercely as if they are fighting just by looking at each other then Mie answered âYes, I should share bedroom with you, Lieutenant Colonel Sakuraiâ
Then Sho grabbed her hand and dragged her all the way to his bedroom, all the other guysâ follow while Aiba grab her backpack. When they reached Shoâs door it was opened and immediately shut after they both got in. Sho pushed her to the back of the door then whispered with a growl âYOU explain yourself!â Mie chuckled and bury her face on Shoâs chest and hugged him.
âI missed you tooâ Sho shivered but hugged her even tighter âSho-chan I canât breatheâ Sho still whispering âserves you right for not showing yourself for 2 fucking yearsâ Mie chuckled again âI know you missed me but for now we need to open the door they might think things about us you knowâ Then Sho realized what he had just done then pushed Mie to bed âI wanted to hug Aiba-shii tooâ
Sho open the door then grab Aiba from the collar of his shirt and shut the door closed again âwhen Aiba was in the room Mie hugged Aiba and whisper âAiba-shii Iâve missed youâ Aiba hugged her back tightly and asked âwhat are you doing here-â she cut him off âshhhh Iâll explain tonight so you should sneak in later with usâ Aiba just nodded
âLet us get out of here before they think badly of us doing something not so nice ne?â Aiba put her bag on the bed then opened the door and the three of them marched out without a word and as if nothing happens. While the other four follow them Sho says âWe need to get back to the Arena to see what activities we have in the afternoonâ
When they get back to the Arena they were asked to get to know each other instead since they encounter a conflict of schedule with the other lower soldiers training course. They got back to the common room Mie were asked a couple of questions since all of them knew each other and she is the new one on the team.
Ohno asked âwho among here do you know personally?â Mie eyed Aiba and Sho then to Toma âLieutenant Col. Sakurai and Major Aiba knows me from back then and I know Major Ikuta from the academy, he is 2yrs older than me so he is my senpaiâ then Toma continued âwe have been together until she left without a word and donât know where to find herâ hurt was evident on his voice and give Mie and accusing look. Sho and Aiba exchanged a meaningful look so as the rest of them âGood to see you too Toma-chanâ
Then Nino asked âI saw it on your pocket earlier, what game do you play on your DSâ Mie smiled âDark Ares, you?â Nino smile and now with a giddy expression âSame! what level? And your character?â Mie thinks âjust turned 65, assassin you?â Nino was now eager âSugoi, I am only level 52, assassin tooâ Jun cleared his throat both Nino and Mie looked at his direction âWhy did you sign up for the training?â
Mikee look up at Sho and Aiba âI guess theres no helping itâ then both guys settled beside her âI-I didnât sign up for it, we were chosen for itâ then sigh âduty calls, at first they sent us here for combat training since the assignment they gave us is a bit complicated and it has something to do with hand in hand combat fight, after that case they absorbed us here and well the rest is history I guessâ
Sho speak up this time âThat is why you were missing for two fucking years without a wordâ Mie smiled sheepishly âYes, and I know my family is going to be furious about it but I donât have time to communicate to them as I said after my assignment they havenât returned me to my HQ and was send here directly. As you all know outside communication is not allowed when you are just a cadetâ
Aiba nodded âyeah that we knowâ Mie smiled at Aiba then take in a lungfull of air âlast case we handle was one of the worst and we are not expecting to came out alive, upon accepting the case  we already accepted our faith so we just left without saying anythingâ Aiba put an Arm around her shoulder this time then tried to change topic.
âAny specialization in particular while you were here?â Mie smiled âNope since I am able to tackle all area along with my best friends Major Sato Aya, Major Daidoji Kim and Major Mao Inoueâ she darted her eyes to Jun who looked at her âI know you are familiar with Inoue, we shared secrets you knowâ she gave a playful wink at Jun who tried to opened his mouth but closed it again, which makes Mie chuckle âNow you know why we have been missing for two years, I trust you would find a heart and treat her fairlyâ Jun gave her a shy smile.
Ohno gave each and every one of them a communicator watch âalright can you all promise to work as a team and win on this training?â Mie smiled gleefully âHell yeah!â then gave Nino a playful wink. Sho stand and says âalright back to arena everyoneâ she grabbed the watch Ohno gave her then grab her jacket âNi-Lieutenant Colonel Sakurai can we drop the honorifics please?â Sho smiled but shake his head while Ohno nodded âYeah it's hard to call everyone with all those, you can call me anything you likeâ
Mie smiled âOh-chan, Kazu, MatsuJun, Toma-chan Aiba-shii, Sho-chan, you can call me Mie-chan or whatever you likeâ Sho smiled wickedly along with Aiba âMie-chan it isâ they stated it in unison, Mie canât help herself and pout.
Toma smiled and whispered âMineâ Mie blushed and say âMie-chan would be niceâ then turn around and grab Sho to the door. Aiba put an arm around Mieâs shoulder who seem to donât mind and teased her âYour boyfriend is possessive I can tellâ Mie scowl at him and give him a jab on his rib âcut it Aiba-shii not funnyâ
When they reach the Arena everyone seem to settle down in a circle the also joined the circle. Mie started playing with her DS not paying attention to what is happening Nino on the other hand was watching her play.
Okada blow his whistle and says âsettle down everyone I need to see how good your combat skills areâ then eyed Mie âwho would like to volunteer?â Yokoyama raised his hands while Okada eyes him âwhy am I not surprise, alright Yokoyama in frontâ Yu stand and then eyed Mie âI wanted her to be my sparring partnerâ Okada turn towards Mie, who is still busy playing.
Okada smiled âGood choice I must say, Miyamoto in front âMie stand without looking at them and stand in front of Yu âalright you already knew the rules, once you are pinned down it means you loseâ Mie still not paying any attention is concentrating in playing, Yu smiled at Mie. Kazuya even shouted âMake sure she canât move her bodyâ Okada looked at Kazuya and smiled âlet the match beginâ
Mie were just standing playing and as if nothing is happening, Yu is getting irritated and says âNot interested in fighting me huh?â Mie just snorted âI donât care if you're a girl I donât intend in loosing you knowâ Mie still ignoring him not saying anything when Yu kicked her DS and it flew from her hands.
Mie moved and kicked Yu to his chest and catch her DS in mid-air, eyes burning this time and Okada smiled knowingly while Sho and Aiba stand and say at the same time âMie-chanâ Mie look up to them and wickedly smiled then shouted âKazu, keep this safe will you?â then throw the DS towards Nino. Mie looked at Kazuya then to Yokoyama who was now standing âDonât you know it is rude to interrupt when I am playing?â
Yu smiled this time âIt is because you are not paying attentionâ Mie smiled while removing her jacket âIt is because you are not interestingâ then like a flash of lightning Mie launch herself give Yu another kick in his chest then grab his hand twisting it down, while she is now sitting on his back and pinned him down on the floor. Yu realized he was just beaten but it was too late since he is unable to move and he is even having a hard time breathing because of the jab he received.
Okada give them a slow clap âNothing less from Major Miyamoto of Osaka, that is why she is allowed to play whenever she wanted too Kudos!â Then Mie stood up and gather her jacket tie it on her waist then Yu tried his best to stand âYou are going to pay for this, Okada a rematchâ Mie look at him and smiled mockingly at Kazuya
âYour friend shouted to pin me down and make sure I am not able to move so I just did what he told youâ then look back at Yokoyama and give him same mocking smile âThat is one of the reason I am hired being a soldier, you got the picture?â then return to where she is supposedly seated and asked Nino of her DS.
âNo rematch for today Yokoyama we also need to see other soldiers combat skills and you can even barely get up so stay with your groupâ Aiba and Sho whispered to Ohno and Jun âRule number one never interrupt her when she is playingâ then both guys nod when Jun heard Inoue who is seating a seat apart from him giggled along with 2 other girls.
âAnother volunteer?â shouted Okada, this time it was Kazuya who raised his hand. Okada look up âKazuya, I suppose you wanted Major Miyamoto as your sparring partner too?â Kazuya smiled âYes if you please?â Okada was shaking his head âMiyamoto, care for another round?â Mie stood up again still holding her DS Okada shake his head âfightâ
Mie is just standing at first then Kazuya tried to give her punch and kicks, but Mie was able to dodge every blow he would give her. Aya shouted âMie-chan stop playing aroundâ that was the only time Mie looked at Kazuya then look up to Aya âSorry I thought I am asked to play with Monkeysâ Kim and Aya laugh along with the other soldiers.
Mie put her DS back to her side pocket then smiled at Okada âwhat are we doing again?â Okada just laugh then Mie says âright, come on give me your best shotâ Kazuya smiled wickedly then says âI thought you were never going to askâ Kazuya launch himself while Mie smiled wickedly âBetter keep upâ then with an ease move Mie also launch herself hold on to one of Kazuyaâs leg since he tried to kick her then  put one leg on his shoulder.
They fell on the floor Mie locked kazuya using her legs and one arm twisted and faced down. Kazuya was unable to move then using her other free hand Mie tried to pull one of his leg and they heard a loud growl of pain Mie was all smiled while looking at Yokoyamaâs direction âOhh so cute I didnât know a kitten can growlâ a laugh from the crowd again, then Okada blow his whistle âMiyamoto thatâs enoughâ Mie stopped and stood up âSensei get those two out of my recordâ
Okada smiled then Mie continued âI was not informed I would be playing with babies, are you sure they passed their training here?â Okada shake his head âfine those two wonât countâ Mie smiled again âI was able to set another record of beating two idiots please recruit more women so it would be off my recordâ Okada laugh âAs you wish Princessâ then Okada playfully bow while Mie give her friends a playful wink and answered âAlright, that would cost you one session of arm combatâ Okada shake his head again âfine one combat session for all 4 of youâ then Mie walk back to her team.
âYouâre goodâ Ohno gave her compliment Mie pouted âI am not those two are just idiotsâ Sho put an arm around her âI didnât know you can do it to Kazuyaâ then Aiba followed âYeah, when it comes to combat Kazuya is goodâ Mie rolled her eyes âstop it you guys it's only upsetting meâ Nino talked this time âMie-chan they are telling the truthâ Mie look from Nino to Jun who also nod âKazuya is one of the best when it comes to combatâ Mie shrugged âIt didnât feel like it thoughâ then all of them laugh.
