Number 1333

Creating Bonds

When Seitarou escorted Number 15 back to his cell, he lied saying that Ayu is with Yamato in the library. If the man will succeed to go back without his guard will get lost, Number 33 will be back the next day. Jyugo backup the lie and goes to bed, without answering the questions that Uno asked him; and slowly, the night leaves and the sun rises.

Everyone wakes up and the day starts as always, the members of the Cell 13 are enjoying their breakfast, and when Uno, Nico or Rock notices that Jyugo is quieter than usual, they ask if he feels bad or something. Number 15 avoids the topic answering that he's just worried for Ayu, he was wondering if his friend is eating well. Bringing that up, Number 69 asks to the chef Shiro, to put Ayu's breakfast in a bowl so they can take it away, if Number 33 would be back in the morning, he can eat it without skipping meals as he tends to do.

In the monitory room, Ayu keeps taping, clicking and looking at all the screens at the same time, while Yamato stares honestly amazed by his skills. He didn't stop not for a second from yesterday, he didn't ask for anything, not to go to the bathroom, some water or something to eat, nothing.

<<Sorry to bother you Number 33-kun, what about taking a little break?>> says Godai, <<Do you want to go and take something to eat? Okina-dono said that you mustn't skip meals.>>

<<I'm fine, don't worry.>> replies the inmate illuminates by the lights of the screens, <<Moreover, you should sleep for a few hours, you don't look good today. Rest a little, I won't move from here anyway.>>

<<Hahaha, there's no way that I sleep when someone is working so hard! It's not respectful!>> he laughs as always and tries to distract a bit the killer, <<Can I know what are you doing, Number 33-kun?>>

<<I'm checking that the other buildings don't have the same footage, if they have it, I need to fix them too.>> he says while typing a lot of things, <<I'm almost done, and no one has it so far. After this, I'll fix the original.>>

<<You're very wise about these things; I can't even understand the right from the left; hahaha!>>

<<I know it, I got lost with you so many time already.>> talks back the inmate with a little smile, <<How did you get a job in here with that terribly sense of orientation, I don't know.>>

<<I was thinking, are you available to teach me some moves?>> asks the guard with his usual cheerful tone, <<I'm really curios to know how you train, so...>>

<<Yamato.>> the boy finally stops typing and turns his chair to face the officer, <<Why are you obsessed with me? I can teach you languages, dances, tricks to cheat in a game, what's in my brain about fights, is only for kill. You shouldn't even know these things, you're a pure man, just stay like this.>>

"He's so selfish, why people said that he's heartless or a scary demon? I don't get it at all." <<Actually, Number 99-kun asked for a lesson too.>> adds Godai smiling, <<You don't need to teach us something in details, only the basics are enough.>>

<<Basics for what? How to break someone's neck in one move?>> "...Why he's so persistent?"

<<How to use some weapons like swords, bows, lances or some martial arts move is fine too!>>

<<.....And where should I get the weapons you requested? If someone sees me with a sword, I'm dead.>> talks sarcastically Ayu, "I'm dangerous even bare handed."
