Elemental Gen - Z

Chapter 17's

[ArVin Arc - #1]

...----------------...

Araya has returned to the world with her original time. That is, when he was thirteen. Araya had woken up, after sleeping for more than an hour. When he woke up, he found that his friends had been with him since. And, why is he in his room?

"Where am I?" araya asked quietly after seeing the place was different from the last time.

"In your room." replied Hanny who was sitting next to him. Not only Hanny, there is also Zaaryan and Kim Dae-Vin.

"Actually, what is Araya? Where were you going?" ask Zaaryan. He was standing near his study table, since then. Isn't it painful?

"I. I was going to the future" replied Araya while sitting down and while remembering his adventures in the future.

"To whose future? What year?" hanny asked excitedly and eyes sparkled.

"My future. If it's not wrong, 2031." replied Araya, he did not know too much about the year. All he knew for sure, was that time was ten years from now.

"Well, what happened to you that year? Who did you meet?" ask Hanny in a row. At that moment, Dae-Vin also looks at him with a flat gaze but is more impressed curious.

"Aah, that.. Secret." Araya only said that after he had a glance at Kim Dae-Vin who was sitting in his study chair.

"Well, why don't you tell me? Are you not single anymore?" ask Hanny again. Araya smiled before answering.

"Yes already? Who?" Hanny asked with a grin.

"Said it was a secret. Who knows it's just God and I know a little." Araya replied, actually she was really embarrassed to tell it. And, he was still very curious, how he and Kim Dae-Vin could get along later.

Not long after, the door of the room suddenly opened. There was someone standing at the door.

"It turns out you're all here" said the man. He is Aria's sister. Then, step in.

"What's this?" ask again.

"I. I used this tool" replied Araya hesitantly.

"Where are you going?"

"To the future. Is it okay?" asked Araya, before she also had not told me if she would use that power. Fear if anything happens.

"Ooh, it's okay. As long as you are strong and not used for evil, it is still permissible." replied brother Aria with a faint smile.

"By the way, what's wrong with Aria?" Hanny asked what her senior arrival meant. It's impossible without reason, right?

"Ah, I was asked to call Araya and Kim Dae-Vin. You two are asked to come to the main room." replied brother Aria with a different expression. After that, Araya and Dae-Vin look at each other for a while. Were they both in trouble?

...----------------...

In the main room, the atmosphere was very uncomfortable. The room was tightly closed. Not allowing to escape. It was impossible for his voice to be heard outside the room.

"Araya, Kim Dae - Vin. Sorry, but this is an order from the deputy commander. You guys, you better start keeping your distance from now on" said Captain Akira. Araya and Dae-Vin put on a confused look. "I know it's unexpected" he continued.

"Sorry Captain, what's the matter?" Dae-vin asked. What caused them to get involved in this?

"Heah.. Both of you are alleged to have been romantically involved, and it is forbidden in this organization" Captain Akira said after sighing.

"What?!" tanya Araya and Dae-Vin compact.

"But we have nothing to do" Araya said in response.

"Yes, it was just a coincidence." Dae-Vin also refutes.

"Yes, we know. We already know your intentions are good, Kim Dae-Vin. But, still. We can't defend you." retorted Captain Akira. Captain Akira, Brother Lee and brother Aria had already tried to defend the two of them, but their vice commander was really hard to persuade.

"Who reported it, Captain?" ask Araya again. He really did not expect that the two of them were considered to have broken the rules.

"Supervisory cameras are installed all over the base, except for private rooms. And the surveillance cameras always send data directly to the headquarters. But, this one, is not being turned on" Captain Akira said after pointing briefly at the surveillance cameras in the upper corner of the room.

Suddenly, the main screen was no longer black. On that screen, there was a call from the central headquarters.

"You must be patient" said Aria Lirih. Feeling sorry for his two juniors was the same as not expecting that there was such a rule.

"Finally, I can see your faces. This is the first case in the ninth generation. It turns out you guys are. Haah. I really didn't expect. Kim Dae-Vin who they say is the best member, has been involved in this kind of business. And Araya. You're the most junior member, and haven't been here long. It's best not to make trouble." said a man about forty-five years old. She wears formal attire, with her name tag 'Kim Dae-Hyun'. Same as Kim Dae-Vin.

"I'm sorry, deputy commander" said Araya apologizing while lowering her body.

"No, Araya. You're innocent." Dae-Vin's inner self after witnessing Araya admitting a mistake, but the mistake really didn't happen, just a guess isn't necessarily true.

"From now on, you can't get too close, limit your meeting if it's not important. This time, I'm still tolerating you. But, if this kind of incident is still repeated, just be prepared, you will receive the consequences at this headquarters" he said, then immediately close the video connection.

Araya breathed her. Her eyes were teary, but she tried to hold it back so that her tears wouldn't drip.

"We're really sorry. We can't help." said Lee Hyun-Jae, sounding sorry.

"It's okay. The captain, Brother Lee, and Brother Aria are innocent. All right, excuse me." said Araya in a soft voice. Then turn to the door outside.

"Me too" said Dae-Vin, then walked out of the room.

"Well, they didn't give us a chance at all. They don't trust us very much, are we that bad?" said Aria, then given a flat gaze that impressed 'aspirated' because it felt it could not be anything. Those in question were representatives from the central headquarters.

"Come on, but I think you're right. Dae-Vin is just trying to help Araya, and neither side is harmed. Why is this the first case?" this time, it was Lee Hyun-Jae who opened the voice. He agreed with Aria. No one was harmed from the incident that night. Instead of losses, but positive impacts. The main thing is, the results of the retest are arguably 'impressive'.

...----------------...

In front of the door of the main room, Araya had already walked quickly before she and Kim Dae-Vin met again. He must really take care of himself.

"Araya, wait." said Dae-Vin so that Araya stopped for a while. Araya stopped his steps. Listen, but without turning to look at Dae-Vin.

"I'm, really sorry-" Dae-Vin's speech was cut off.

"No Kim Dae-Vin, it's not your fault. I'm the one who should be apologizing, because of me, you got involved. See you," said Araya, after which she ran away from Dae-Vin before her tears began to drip.

"Araya.." said Dae-Vin while staring at Araya's back away, long time not visible because he turned at the intersection of the hallway.

Arriving at the room, Araya immediately locked herself inside the room. I don't want anyone to know about this. He really did not expect. Things like last night can be a problem. Maybe from the headquarter side that came to a conclusion too soon.

...----------------...

Inside the room, Kim Dae-Vin was speechless after the incident. He is frustrated at the moment. Dae-Vin takes his tab to contact his father Kim Dae-Hyun, their deputy commander.

"Appa (father) What is this? Why is there a case all of a sudden?" kim Dae-Vin asked after she managed to contact her father.

"You still ask? Isn't it clear, you and Araya are involved in the romance that is forbidden in this organization. Didn't you understand the rules of this organization?" reply father. Dae-Vin is cold again. He did this so that he could be firm.

"But dad, we both have no intention of doing it. And isn't neither side harmed in this affair? I was just helping Araya. I was just-"

"There's no excuse! Problems are still problems! If it happens again, just look. I'm disappointed in you, Kim Dae-Vin" he said, then turned off the voice call.

"I'm sorry I contacted him. It's no use." Dae-Vin's inner, he's very upset. It felt, he wanted to slam his tab right then and there. But, this he didn't do.

Kim Dae-Vin decides to go to the bathroom, closing the door tightly. Sitting pensively on the toilet even though there is no call of nature. It is common for him to do when he is upset and frustrated.

Dae-Vin stares at the bathtub filled with cold water. Then, walk up to him, crouching next to him. Both of his hands were holding the edges of the bathtub, he closed his eyes. After that, directly put his head into the cold water which was about two degrees Celsius, almost to the freezing point. He deliberately set the temperature to cool.

"I'm really sorry.."

I want to feel like he died right then and there. A person feels valuable only after that person has died. But, he paused his intentions, considering that he still had someone he should be happy with.

"Why are you so different?"

To be continued..
