C 72. Another Path Of Development

//Sector 7, Natural Garden. Susan POV\\

"Calm yourself. Try to see if you can read both their emotions." Director Khan said.

"Hmm, I can't. Something is blocking me from it. I only felt danger."

"It's understandable. Captain Leroy has coated himself with his aura. As for Subject 3519, he was just blank.

But try to see if you can feel anything from Subject 3519."

"Okay."

By now, the Subject was on his feet gazing at the giant monstrosity in front of him. He ran and picked a stick from a tree.

He ran back, then he used to stick to poke at the beast Tiger. It occurred to me that the tiger was wearing some kind of pants.

"What is your ability?"

"Beast transformation." A thunderous voice answered as the Tiger spoke.

"Amazing, maybe I'm wrong!" Subject 3519 mumbled. He seems to be thinking about something complicated.

"Haha, yes that is what I call development. Little Tiger, you impress me, do you want my help?"

"Little?"

"Ahm, you wouldn't understand."

"Yes," little tiger. I mean, Giant Tiger answered with a thunderous voice.

"Good, it might be… impossible to achieve because certain elements must be in place." 

"What are the elements?"

"Well, if the elements are not in place it will fail, to me and anyone that helps you, their hand should be clean of it.

But I assure you, the limit I saw on you does not exist in my method. From what I saw you only have three steps before you reach the limit.

With my method, you will be beyond outstanding. The only thing that will be a hindrance is you." He said it with an excited voice, his hands flailing from one place to another.

"The limit is me?" 

"Yes, your Mental Fortitude limits. But you will have to begin from the beginning. You have to shade this garbage away. It stinks and attracts negativity."

"Madam 9 said you want to turn me into Guardian spirit?"

Yep, that is what Director 9 said to the Giant Tiger to ask the Subject. But subject 3519 seems in thought.

"Hahaha, you do have an aspect of that. Sacrificing your life to save those kids is a good gesture, but that is not enough.

I doubt this facility is clean enough to raise a candidate. To tell you the truth I only see one guardian spirit once, but I don't know how to truly make one.

I just felt sad if you end up being another victim of other people's mistakes. You wouldn't understand that but this tiger skin is not clean."

"You speak in riddles, and I don't understand you. But what is the method?"

"You will discard this power!"

"Fine."

"Okay…"

Yep, what he said later became dull to my ears. I'm not allowed to know what it was.

It took an hour before they ended their conversation, I only watched from the sideline. 

George the living bulb joined them and emit a blinding light to the humanoid Tiger before it transforms back.

Along transforming back a thick green flesh poured down his body. 

But he looks weak and frail. The group of doctors have to intervene or else he will have entered into a critical state.

Well, I have no idea what was going on.

…

Later on that day, Director Khan came by saying, "You have a fate with subject 3519. 

There are intricate things we did not want to involve you.

But no matter what, every action of the Subject will indirectly indicate your involvement.

And with his weird ability to acquire knowledge through mysterious means we now want to make your involvement 100%.

To achieve that you and your brother have to sign an exclusive contract with the Board Directors."

I want to retort but then I think this is a good opportunity to understand myself and my powers from a Clairvoyant person.

"Okay."

"Good, before Sector 10 sends back the contract instructions, you will be involved in everything that is going on.

George Franklin was advised to seek your help for his ability development. You need to talk to Subject 3519 because it was his advice.

As for Leroy Vincent, he is going to perform a new bonding with a new tiger. And your present is required too.

Subject 3519 presented a new path that is very similar to the one Captain Leroy followed but the Subject claimed that it was going to be better without apparent limit.

For now, you will not be privy to the details due to time. What was required of you is to help gradually in a natural manner make Leroy and the new Tiger to like each other."

"I still did not understand. You merge the information in a way that I couldn't know what from the other!"

"Ahh, sorry my bad. I'm just having a headache. Meet Captain Vincent in the other garden, you will get the required details."

…

After taking my time to mull over what the Director said, I came out from the office and walked toward the other garden. 

This garden is artificially made to resemble the Natural Garden. I didn't even know what made them call the other a natural garden, not the other garden. To me, they look similar.

Whatever!

Reaching the Garden View of the Garden 01, that is its name. I found a young Tiger within the garden. 

The Tiger is emaciated and weak.

The tiger barely has any hair on its body. It moves from one location to another to jump around as other Tigers do. 

I saw Leroy Vincent on the other side watching the Tiger with a sad expression.

A message rang on my tablet. The message was instructions about what I will be doing.

It said from now till the next 10 days, I will aid Leroy Vincent to turn the tiger into his friends. 

I should do it in a slow and natural manner.

I should just have to instruct Vincent on what he should be doing that will garner the attention of the tiger.

A very easy job for me. 

A long term manipulation is more potent and sometimes permanent than a quick one.
