Mechanical Hearts

Chapter 1: Machina Limited Corp.

"Happy memories will not always give you salvation, having memories are painful, for those who will be left behind, and to those who will leave. I wish i was just a machine, no memories, only living with program, im sure its peaceful".

*Ring*

*Ring*

Kazumi slams his alarm clock, He looked at the time then he realizes, "Oh no, im late"

Kazumi suddenly rushes to eat, brushes harshly and took a quick shower. He ran as fast as he can as he bangs his door. "i'm late, i'm late, i'm late, it's my first day and it's only monday!". he rushes to the horde of people in the train and run towards the closing door of train and luckily, He reached it.

*sigh* "now i will not be late, how lucky" He looks so tired and sweaty and his legs are shaking.

While kazumi is standing in front of the door of office, He felt nervous. When he enters the office, His officemates greet him along with their boss. "Goodmorning everyone" *smiles weirdly*

The boss called him, "Kazumi come here, lets discuss who will be your partner" Kazumi agreed.

[Boss]: How are you in your first day? You looked tired.

[Kazumi]: Yes, i rushed here because i woke up late, hehe-hehe

As Kazumi and boss crossed the boss office door, there is a woman who is beautiful, but strangely quiet.

[Kazumi]: Who is that?

[Boss]: Ah, Thats yuuki.

[Kazumi]: hmmmm

Kazumi's eyes we're locked up to yuuki when yuuki stare daggers at him

[Yuuki]: Why are you looking at me? You creep.

[Kazumi]: Im sorry, its just.... Its not my intention its not like i have ulterior motives to you.

[Yuuki]: I didn't ask's for that.

[Kazumi]: sorry.

Boss suddenly cough to get the attention of two, he grabs the papers and give one to Kazumi and Yuuki.

[Kazumi]: What is this?

[Boss]: Ah, that is the contract for you, I decided that she will be your partner since she has no partner.

[Kazumi]: What exactly is our work boss?

[Boss]: Ah, it's simple. You will retrieve expiring machina's before they expired.

[Kazumi]: What will happen if you failed to retrieve them?

[Boss]: I honestly dont want to say it as retrieval, but if you fail to retrieve them before their expiration Their program will be infected by virus.

[Kazumi]: Meaning?

[Boss]: They will go to rampage till they die.

[Boss]: Anyway, do you two agree to become partner in this work?

[Kazumi and Yuuki]: Yes, Boss.

[Boss]: And last one, Yuuki will instruct you and guide you here.

[Kazumi]: Ah, Yes sir

As Kazumi leaves, Yuuki approach him to discussed something. Yuuki's face were so cold, yet so cute, and beautiful.

[Yuuki]: Wait!

[Kazumi]: Yuuki? Why?

Yuuki look so pissed when he heard Kazumi

[Kazumi]: (Huh? Why is she angry? Did i do something wrong?) Hehe.

Kazumi is sweating because Yuuki's eyes are staring at him, looking as sharp as blade.

[Yuuki]: DID YOU FORGET THAT I WILL INSTRUCT YOU AND GUIDE YOU HERE!?

[Kazumi]: (How scary!!!!) ah, im really sorry, i just don't know that it will start today.

[Yuuki]: Nevermind, so, let's start.

Yuuki shows Kazumi the Retrieval Van, Retrieval ring and Corrupted gun.

[Yuuki]: Here, this is what we used in retrieving the machina. It's names are retrieval Van- It is used to transport the machina's, Retrieval ring- It is used to shut down the program of machina, insert it in one of their fingers so that machina will shut down.

[Kazumi]: So how does the ring works?

[Yuuki]: It is to erased the program of machina, but once erased, it will never go back again.

Kazumi knows that this will be their work. But, He was still shocked when he hears those words from Yuuki.

[Yuuki]: Follow me

[Kazumi]: Yes

Yuuki shows kazumi his workspace, or i mean, their workspace. It is a tiny space that consist's of 2 computers. Kazumi was fascinated about how organized their workspace before he got there.

Lastly, Yuuki shows him his room.

[Yuuki]: This is the room your designated for

The room was very clean, and it has complete utensils, it even has a kitchen, living room and bedroom, and comfort room. Kazumi rushed to the bedroom and lie to the bed. Yuuki closed the door and sat on the couch. Kazumi approach her to ask questions

[Kazumi]: ummm, do we have any work today Yuuki?

[Yuuki]: None

[Kazumi]: So can i just rest here for today?

[Yuuki]: Yes.

[Kazumi]: Then, let me sleep for today! Goodnight.

Kazumi instantly fell asleep without organizing and fixing his things. while sleeping, Yuuki did clean and organize things, including his. Kazumi slept for 8 hours, missing his lunch and it was already dinnertime. When he went to the kitchen, He saw Yuuki preparing the table for two. Kazumi felt bad.

[Kazumi]: i don't mind eating together, but you shouldn't do housechores for me.

[Yuuki]: Im not doing this for you, it's just my job and this is our room

[Kazumi]: HUH!?!?!?

Kazumi was surprise from what Yuuki said. He blushes and his mind was clouded. Can't think and is collapse because of shock.
