No one's POV
Currently, Squad 13 is on an exterminate mission to take out a nearby Klaxosaur and currently they're all surrounding it. Lupus boosted behind, firing his wrist mounted guns, as well as slashing it in its back with it's sword. Jumping out of the way, he let Chlorophytum shoot it with her guns as well.
Delphinium: Almost dome. Let's gang up and end it in one.
As everyone rushed in together to take out the Klaxosaur,
but it started to spin it's heads and shoot out blue spit, as everyone other then Lupus who saw it and managed to stop before it could be hit, while everyone else was covered in it.
Argentea: What is this?! Gross!
Genista: It's all sticky!
Chlorophytum: But...
Lupus walked up to Delphinium and took some on his finger, looking it.
Nhazul: It doesn't look dangerous, just disgusting.
Strelizia: It doesn't hurt either.
Genista: Yeah, it seems fine.
Argentea: So it's just for show?
Nhazul: Seems like it.
Delphinium: Let's try it again, guys. Stick to the plan.
Nhazul: Alright, let's do this!
Lupus went to go boost forward, but then noticed that everyone else wasn't moving at all.
Nhazul: Umm, guys? What are you doing?
No one gave him answer and he just sighed and rolled his eyes.
Nhazul: ...-_-... Alright, if you're just going to stand around.
Nhazul then boosted towards the Klaxosaur and jumped behind it, boosting again and stabbing the Klaxosaur through the chest, grabbing its core and crushing it, killing it. Nhazul looked back again, seeing everyone still standing around.
Nhazul: ...-_-.., Okay, why the hell are you all standing around?!
Suddenly, Hiro started to shout in the comms.
Hiro: Zero Two, this is bad! It's gonna be exposed!
Zorome and Futoshi: Don't tell her, dumbass!
Nhazul: Exposed?
The girls then looked confused as well and then looked inside the cockpit and saw their parasite suits were melting away and they were completely horrified.
Argentea My parasite suit!
The girls then screamed loudly into the comms and Nhzual held his ears in pain.
Girls: AAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!
Nhazul: ...O-O.....My freaking ears!!!!
(Timeskip)
After returning to the Planation, all the Franxx's were being cleaned off from the blue goo.
The girls however were given towels to cover themselves, as they were looking at the boys extremely annoyed.
Goro: You've got the wrong idea! We only didn't tell you because we didn't want to distract you during the battle.
Futoshi: As for me, I simply found you amazingly beautiful, Kokoro! Believe me! This is straight from the heart!
Kokoro then started to blush like crazy, as Nhazul was holding his ears.
Nhazul: And believe me when I say, I think you four busted my ear drums...
Ichigo: Nhazul, now isn't the time for your smart ass remarks...
Nhazul: ...;-;...Who says I was being smart...? My ears are still ringing...!
Nhazul said picking at his ears, as Mitsuru just walked away.
Mitsuru: So stupid.
Zorome: Y'know, it's not like being seen hurt you or anything.
Miku then looked at Zorome offended.
Miku: Excuse me?! What did you just say?!
Hiro: Wait, guys. Zero Two told me that parasites are, uh...better off being a little pervy! Right, Zero Two?
Nhazul: I'm sorry, you said what now?
Zero Two: Yup, Yup.
Ichigo: What the hell...?
Nhazul: ...-_-... Zero, why the hell would you tell him that?!
Zero Two: Because it's true!
Nhzual: No, no it isn't!
(Timeskip)
Once everyone returned to the bordering house, the girls had taped off half of the house from the boys, seeing this, Nhazul raised a brow.
Nhazul: ...-_-... Okay, I'll bite. What is this..?
Miku: Simple. Boys are banned from setting foot on this side.
Nhazul: ...-_-... Huh..?
Zorome: W-Who died and made you the boss? This is messed up!
As Zorome went to step over the lane, the girls other then Kokoro glared at him.
Miku: Zorome... Cross that line, and you'll regret it.
Zorome looked at Miku scared, stepping back. Nhazul however, just rolled his eyes.
Nhazul: This is stupid...
Nhazul went to step over and Ichigo stopped him.
Ichigo: That goes for you too, Nhazul. You're not allowed to cross that line either.
Nhazul: I didn't even do anything...
Miku: You're a boy, so by association, you are in the same position as them!
Nhazul: ...-_-... That logic is both incredibly stupid and incredibly flawed...
Nhazul just looked at Ichigo and the others girls other the Kokoro glaring at him. As he did, without looking away, he stepped over the line, surprising them.
Miku: Nhazul, go back over now!
Nhazul: I'm not going to be part of this stupid game you all are doing. But, if you want me to go back over.
Nhazul walked over to the girls, and just leaned down in Miku's face, not threatened in the slightest.
Nhazul: Have fun making me.
Nhazul then walked away, leaving everyone surprised.
(Timeskip)
Currently, Nhazul was laying down on the couch in the living room, looking at the bullet he had found at the beach. He had then started to think to the image of the masked man, using the sniper to kill the man.
Nhazul's thoughts: Why do I keep seeing these visions...? What does it mean...?
Ichigo: Nhazul.
Nhazul put the bullet away and then looked up at Ichigo standing over him.
Nhazul: Hi.
Ichigo: You know you're not supposed to be in here.
Nhazul just rolled his eyes.
Nhazul: And you know I don't really care about this whole game you guys are all playing.
Ichigo: Nhazul, I'm gonna have to ask you to leave.
Nhazul: Mmmmm....Nah.
Ichigo: Nhazul, as your Squad leader, I'm ordering you to leave.
Nhazul: I respect your position as leader, but given that your order is a really stupid ass order, I have chosen to ignore it.
Ichigo looked at Nhazul annoyed, as she left the room, as he rolled his eyes.
(Timeskip)
Currently Nhazul was walking around the house, and saw the girls walking downstairs. As they did, they all heard the door open, seeing Goro, Futoshi and Zorome all in their underwear.
Nhazul: ...-_-... Alrighty then... Last thing I expected to see this morning...
Miku: H-Hey, what did you think you're doing?
Zorome: Well, seeing as we can't use the bath, we decided to take a dip in the lake. It felt amazing.
Miku: W-Would it kill you to get dressed? Are you listening to me?!
Zorome: What we do in our territory is none of your damn business.
Zorome then started taunting Miku and she looked at him pissed.
Nhzual: ...-_-... This is going to be a long day...
(Timeskip)
As the day went on, Nhazul continued to wander around the house, and as he's walking, he could hear Miku yelling in the bath house. Walking in, he saw the girls cleaning it.
Miku: They get to have fun in the lake, and we're stuck cleaning the bath? It's not fair.
Nhazul: ...-_-...You know you can't really complain about that, you're the one who declared the bath off limits.
The girls looked back and saw Nhazul leaning against the wall.
Miku: Hey! Get back on your side!
Nhazul: I told you, I'm not playing this stupid game.
Miku: Then why are you here?!
Nhazul: No reason, just passing by and wanted to see what all the yelling was coming from.
Ichigo: If there's nothing that you need, then leave.
Rolling his eyes, Nhazul just walked out the bathroom.
(Timeskip)
As the bell rang for lunch, Nhazul walked up and saw the girls just standing in front of the door.
Nhazul: What are you four standing around for?
The girls didn't say anything, as he looked down and saw a tape trail leading from the boy's side, to the dinning hall, blocking it off to the girls, as the boys enjoyed their lunch.
Nhazul: ...-_-...Oh you have got to be kidding me...
Goro: Sorry, but we've taken over this area. We noticed that you girls hadn't taped it off.
Nhazul: Are you really doing this...?
Zorome: So good! Today's breakfast is extraordinary!
Nhazul: That was a stupid question... Of course they are...
Miku: No fair! You're heartless!
Goro: You're right. So what say we both drop all the silly rules and eat together?
Nhazul: That's the most sensible thing I've heard all day...
Ikuno: It's a tarp.
Ichigo: Agreed.
Nhazul: Of course...
The girls started to drag Miku away who was going for the the food. Walking up, Zero Two looked at the tape and just ignored it and went into the dinning hall, as Nhazul just sighed, now getting frustrated.
(Timeskip)
It's later in the day, and currently, Nhazul is walking around the girl side, with four plates of food looking for them. As he did, Zero Two walked up behind him, looking at him confused.
Zero Two: Big brother? What are you doing?
Nhazul: Looking for the girls, so I can give them their food. Everyone is being stubborn is getting on my nerves... This needs to stop.
Zero Two: Well, I'm the opposite. I think it could use a little spicing up, in fact.
Nhazul: Of course you do...
As Nhazul is still walking along with Zero Two, they eventually, the found Ichigo, Ikuno and Miku, and saw them looking at they were looking at a sealed off door. Zero Two walked up to Ikuno, licking the back of her neck.
Zero Two: I taste a secret.
Ikuno jumped back surprised and the others saw Nhazul and Zero Two.
Nhazul: What are you three doing...?
Ichigo: We were looking for something to eat, when we found these rooms.
Nhazul: Well, here.
Nhazul handed Ichigo the tray of food, as they looked at it surprised.
Nhazul: The boys took this a little to far, not that you've been any better. Even so, I got you four some food.
Miku saw the food and quickly took it.
Miku: In no way does this makes us allies!
Nhazul just rolled his eyes, and as he along with Zero Two started to walk away, Ichigo stopped them.
Ichigo: Wait!
The girls then took Nhazul and Zero Two to their room and sat them down.
Miku: Whose side are you both on?
Nhazul: I'm sorry?
Ichigo: I know you said you didn't want to apart of this, but we'd like you both to cooperate with us.
Nhazul: Ichigo, I told you. I'm not playing in this stupid game.
Zero Two: Plus, what you're doing is lame. Your just playing around.
Ichigo: Believe it it not, Nhazul. We're serious about this.
Nhazul: And believe me when I say, this is stupid. What you all are doing is stupid. I understand your upset, but this is taking things too far. How about instead of doing this stupid boy vs girl war and split up the house carp, you all talk it out! You all can't function like this, it'll only end badly!
Ichigo: Nhazul, we're dead set on doing this. If you're not going to help us, then you can leave.
Nhazul: You know, I feel like I'm talking to myself, or a wall... Did you hear anything I just said? You can't keep doing this!
Ichigo: I heard you perfectly clear. And my mind isn't being changed. We'll do this as long as need be!
Both Nhazul and Ichigo continued to stare each other down, as Nhazul spoke up, narrowing his eyes at her, chuckling.
Nhazul: Wow, what am I doing? I don't know why I'm wasting my breath. You've always been too stubborn to listen...
Ichigo narrowed her eyes at Nhazul as well, now annoyed.
Ichigo: Leave, now.
Nhazul: Of course, Leader...
As Nhazul walked out the room, Ichigo just sighed annoyed, but also looked down.
(Timeskip)
Currently, Nhazul was sitting on a log outside in the woodlands area, still annoyed with Ichigo about this stupid fight, as well as they're own fight.
Nhazul's thoughts: I know she's stubborn, she's always been. Once she has her mind set on something, nothing can stop her. But this...? If this keeps going...
As Nhazul continued to sit, he started to think back to a memory, from 2 years ago, and saw an entire squad of Parasites all killed in battle, making him clinch his fists tightly.
Nhazul's thoughts: They'll only end up dead...
???: Code 000.
Nhazul looked back and saw Hachi.
Nhazul: What is it?
Hachi: We need you to sortie.
(Timeskip)
Sometime later in the day, after another argument between the boys and girls started, thanks to Zero Two. The others, had found the older room of the previous Squad 13. Realizing that they were dead, they decided that they needed to stop their fight and make up with one another and were currently doing just that. After Ichigo made up with Goro, she had realized that she hadn't seen Nhazul since their argument. Wanting to apologize to him, Ichigo looked over Zero Two.
Ichigo: Zero Two, have you seen Nhazul?
Zero Two: Nope. I haven't seen big brother since you were being bossy and mean to him.
Ichigo then looked down saddened.
Ichigo: Where could he be..?
Ichigo looked over at the couch and saw his jacket was left there. Picking it up and putting it on, Ichigo made her way outside, going to see if she could find him. After an hour of walking around, she returned to the house, sitting on the step, unable to find him.
Ichigo: Where is he...?
Ichigo proceeded to sit on the step for over four hours, hoping Nhazul would eventually return. Shivering from the night air, Ichigo placed the hood of Nhazul's jacket on, before bundling up more with it. After another hour of waiting, she eventually heard footsteps, as she looked up to see Nhazul walking up, hands in his pockets.
Ichigo: There you are... Where have you been?
Nhazul: There was a horde of Klaxosaurs that needed to be taken out. And since you all were too busy fighting each other, I had to deal them.
Ichigo: Oh...
As Nhazul walked past her and went to head inside, she softly spoke up.
Ichigo: Can you sit here with me...? I wanna talk...
Nhazul: Why? You'll just tell me to leave again when you don't hear what you wanna hear...
Ichigo just looked down saddened, but still spoke up again.
Ichigo: Please, Nhazul....
Nhazul just looked at Ichigo and sighed, as he walked back down, sitting next to her. The two sat in silence for a few minutes, but Ichigo was the first to break it.
Ichigo: We ended the feud between the girls and boys...
Nhazul didn't say anything at first, but soon spoke up.
Nhazul: That so? So, I take it everyone made up?
Ichigo: More or less, yeah.
Nhazul: Well, that's good to hear.
Nhazul just sighed, looking up into the sky.
Nhazul: You remember during the joint operation with squad 26? How much they pretty much hated and feared Zero and I?
Ichigo: Yeah?
Nhazul: Well, they aren't they only ones... Zero and I aren't the most welcome amongst other squads. They all fear us. All expect half of a squad of another Plantation. Squad 19. Half of their unit despised me, while the other half put their trust and faith in me... I was a point of multiple arguments during that operation, which lead to constant infighting between them...
When Nhazul said that, Ichigo's eyes widened.
Ichigo: Infighting...?
Nhazul: Yeah... The constant fighting made it's way to the battlefield. They couldn't work together, and ultimately they all lost their lives...
Ichigo's eyes widened even more, completely shocked, as she just looked down saddened.
Ichigo: I'm... I'm sorry... About earlier... You were right about the fight... And I'm sorry for being so mean when you were just trying to help... Why you were so adamant about it... I understand why now...
Nhazul: It's fine. As long as you all understand, then it doesn't matter.
Ichigo continued to look down, saddened, which Nhazul noticed.
Nhazul: What's wrong?
Ichigo: D-Do you still want to be with me...? Even after everything I said and acted towards you...?
Nhazul looked over Ichigo, before holding her hand, surprising her.
Nhazul: Ichigo, I already know how stubborn you are, how much of a hard ass you can be, especially how spoiled you can be.
Ichigo: H-Hey...
Nhazul moved over closer to Ichigo, pressing his forehead to hers, smiling as she blushed.
Nhazul: And even though you had really annoyed me. It's going to take a lot more then a little argument get rid of me.
Ichigo smiled at Nhazul, before she started blushing even more.
Nhazul: What's wrong?
Ichigo: Nhazul...can you... Can you hold me...? The way you did before..?
Nhazul looked at Ichigo surprised, before smiling.
Nhazul: Sure.
Still blushing, Ichigo shifted over and sat on Nhazul's lap, as he held her tightly.
Nhazul: Better?
Ichigo: Yeah.
Ichigo smiled happily, before resting her head on Nhazul's chest.
Ichigo: Whenever you hold me like this... I feel so protected... So safe... Like nothing in the world can hurt me...
Nhazul: Good. I'm happy I make you feel that way.
Both Nhazul and Ichigo looked at each other, leaning in and sharing a passionate kiss together , as Nhazul continued to hold her tightly, smiling.
