Chapter 214 - War Plan [Part 2]
Chapter 214 – War Plan [Part 2]
"Our main goal is the Queen Kaiju so another of my guess, she might not be guarded by Alpha's only but Were-Alpha's, we have to find a way to clear the path so that our main focus will be the Queen Kaiju" Anzai explained.
Kiyoshi turns to Shino who was seated beside Anzai, he smiled.
"Commander Shino"
"Sir!"
"Anzai here told me all the bio-genetics has tested their strengths against an Alpha"
"Yes sir" Shino replied, he gulps.
"The thing is the Were-Alpha," he said sternly.
"It's unlike anything we have ever seen, sir"
Kiyoshi nods in understanding.
"My guess is, the Queen Kaiju will be much more" he noted leaning against his chair.
Shino nods.
"And what has proven effective against this Kaiju's are your blood" he adds.
"Severing their heads also sir," Shino said.
Kiyoshi leaned forward.
"Then I guess for us to defeat the Queen Kaiju we shall put together a team for it".
"A team?" Shino said puzzled.
"What are you suggesting Kiyoshi-sama?" Anzai asked.
"A team of your strongest bio-genetics solely tasked with the mission of taking down the Queen Kaiju".
His eyes land on Shino.
"And you Commander Shino… shall be leading this team".
***
The doors slide shut, Shino lets out a breath he has been holding in for a while, he adjusts his collar.
"A team of our strongest bio-genetics huh?" Shino said with shaky eyes.
He took a deep breath walking out, his boots making a sound on the metal ground.
***
Prime Minister's Office
"You wanted to see me, Anzai," Kiyoshi said in amusement.
Anzai's lips pressed in a thin line.
"You know I don't like beating around the bush Kiyoshi-sama" he states facing him with serious eyes.
"So I will plain…"
Kiyoshi's eyes narrowed.
"Does the X-file have anything to do with the virus?"
Kiyoshi's smile fades.
***
"Shino?".
At the sound of his name, he raised his head seeing Dr. Touka.
"Dr. Touka"
"Aren't you suppose to be in a meeting with the prime minister?" she asked puzzled.
"Oh, we're done," Shino said with a shrug.
"Then where's General Anzai… I want to see him for something Important"
"He stayed back in the office".
"Oh," she made a sound.
"I should be going now Dr. Touka of a lot of things to do," he said scratching the back of his head.
Touka smiled nodding.
Shino bowed before walking away.

"We swore not a say a word about that… never," Kiyoshi said sternly.
"Forgive me Kiyoshi… it's bothering me, I have a gut feeling the two are related as to what the X-file is all about" Anzai said facing him with unreadable eyes.
"You and I should know it has nothing to do with Virus, there's no connection tied to this".
"I know" Anzai intoned.
"But you know we have always been up to our toes ever since the X-file" he adds.
Kiyoshi gulps hard, knowing his words were true.
"We both anticipated something out of the ordinary might happen… no", Anzai shut his eyes close.
"We all did" he corrected.
***
Touka stood just outside the door, hearing the muffled sound of their voice, curious as to what they were saying, she pressed her ear against the door.
"In everything we have studied about this virus it's dynamic and mysterious… and more unknown".
She heard.
***
"What are you trying to say, Anzai?"
"I'm saying Kiyoshi-sama, that this virus could be connected to the x-file due to the unknown merits"
Kiyoshi gulps hard looking away.
"We buried that file for a reason, we never investigated on it, neither was anything tied to it… what if that unanswered question was the virus"
"Don't wonder on this too much Anzai, there's a reason the X-file is a government secret…"
"Haruto's last words to Hiro was to find the truth" Anzai cut in.
"The truth Kiyoshi-sama, it could only mean he wanted Hiro to know or it's about the virus that could be related to the X-file" he reasoned.
Kiyoshi sighed, he shakes his head negatively.
"If it is… then we are facing a much bigger threat"
***
Touka's eyes trembled in hearing everything. 'X-file? What are they… what are they talking about? Something that has to do with the virus?'
"We should focus on ending this war with the Kaiju's"
"Yes Kiyoshi-sama"
"Let's hope the connection isn't tied to it".
She heard footsteps approaching, she gasps moving backward.
The door slide open as Anzai steps out, the door sliding behind, Anzai froze when he saw Touka leaning against a wall, a few distances away.
He approached her slowly.
"Touka?"
She forced a smile facing him.
"I was waiting for you," she said.
"Wanna grab a drink?" she adds.

Level 12: Civilian's Level
Bar
Anzai slurps his drink before dropping his glass down.
"How's the war plan coming up?" she asked drinking.
"An order has been issued… Prime Minister Kiyoshi is planning on putting up the strongest bio-genetics with the sole mission of defeating the Queen Kaiju" he explained.
"I see… it's a good plan if we're not sending them to their deaths" Touka said sarcastically.
Anzai frowned.
"You know that's not it… they are not going alone, they will have back up, we still need to find a way to keep the Alpha's busy so that the team can reach the Queen".
"And this team… lemme guess Hiro, Yuki, Shino, Ten, Haya… am I missing out any?" she said tilting her head to the side.
Anzai's eyes saddened.
"Those you mentioned are our strongest bio-genetics yet but it's still being put into consideration, we might have a plan but we need to work on it, I don't intend on losing any of the kids again, I just want this over once and for all".
A warm smile pressed against her lips at his words.
"Anzai" she began in a serious tone.
"Hmm?"
"If you knew anything about the virus or the cause of the explosion, you would tell me right?"
Anzai paused his drinking action, he slowly drops the glass on the table.
"You heard about our conservation didn't you"
Touka bit her bottom lip knowing she was caught but there was no going back now.
"What is the X-file, Anzai?"
