Kevin woke up in a bed and tried to put himself up. He layed back against the pillows and looked."What the fuck?!"he said as he noticed he wasn't in the same bed he was before he slept. Some how he was one bed to the right now. He streched a bit and yawned.
He felt way better right now. The way he could actually move himself. The way he could actually feel his body. He felt as though he could actually rule the world. He then tried to get up however, he failed."Darn"he said as he layed back down.
Suddenly his stomached groaned and he hunched in pain. He turned to the remote and pressed the button."I need some breakfast ASAP!"he said. He sure was hungry. The last time he ate was. Was. Was. When was the last time he ate? Suddenly he got worried. He thought that he may have slept more than a day or two.
After a few minutes, a nurse came in with a cart full of a variety of food."How long have I been asleep for?"he asked the nurse worried."I think two days"she said. Then it hit him."Okay"said Kevin in shock. Two days? Really? Two days? How could he have slept for two days?
"What do you want to eat?"she asked Kevin. Then he turned to her and said."I would like some bacon, some eggs, a bagel with jelly and butter, three waffles with a lot of syrup and some orange juice"he said.
Soon after, he started with the feast. The food was so good and hot. He started with the bacon and ended with the bagel with the jelly and butter. Then he burped for thirty seconds straight and layed down.
He looked around in search of some visitors. He hoped LJ-2.0 came to see him. He sure liked the robotic monkey a lot.

Earlier, Leonard was going through his typical paperwork. Looking through every Black Knight applications, all to see any faults or just something that shows hints of being traitors and all that. Even though there is a prisoner in Black Knight possession, somehow he doesn't feel the need to launder with her. Sure, she was a princess but she wasn't his interest as of the moment. Upon looking at the papers, he found one particular application with a recent update on it under the name of 'Ke-vin Par-ker', Kevin Parker. It says in the report he was apparently wounded in action by a lowly Britannian officer, and that he was the son of a Britannian governor in his background... splendid, time to pay a visit.
(3-hours later)
By around that time, Leonard was in the room, watching Kevin the entire time. Wearing his usual uniform consisting of that black double breasted trenchcoat and that black visor cap of his. Watching the young Kevin Parker in his one eyed vigilance. The golden haired boy amusing the Captain as he delightfully watches from the dark, sitting at a stool in a slouched position.
"What the fuck?!" Ah, so now the boy awakens from his slumber. Probably mewling for a trivial reason. All suspects do that.
Watching as he made a few chiding comments to himself as a nurse took a fancy to stroll in, Leonard simply listened and waited. Flipping through the pages of his clipboard, specifically about Kevin Parker. There was only one part said by the boy that caught Zoss's keen attention to which he raptly looks at the golden haired kid.
"I would like some bacon, some eggs, a bagel with jelly and butter, three waffles with a lot of syrup and some orange juice"
Standing up, he puffed up his chest to exaggerate his features, Leonard paces up to Kevin moments after he started and what appears to be that he seemed to be finished with his hearty meal. Setting his clipboard down on the bosom of Kevin's legs as he fixes the button of his double brested coat, he leans forward towards Parker until they are a few inches away from one another, eye slitting down to a saucer.
"You forgot to say please and thank you to the nurse, it's impolite in Japanese culture not to show your appreciation for their services." The Ikaragua Airship Captain says in his cryptic Japanese, "Oh wait, I almost forgot this, would you like some traitor's chocolate? It tastes nice... to traitors." Pulling out a bar of Brittanian produced Japanese chocolate under the brand of 'Pretty Britty' from his pockets, he drops them at Kevin's chest as he begins to sit down at the side of his bed by his legs. Smiling quite pleasantly despite the grim atmosphere.
Pulling up the earlier clipboard he held in his hand, he begins shuffling through the papers as he pulls them up to lay back.
"Enjoyed your sleep, Herr Parker? Good, I have a few questions for you." He paused, letting the suspense build or at least grow an irritating atmosphere, he looked back at his clipboard. "It says here that you're the son of a deceased rich Britannian governor, and somehow, you became a Black Knight." Running his fingers up Kevin's chest all the way to his beating heart, he begins pressing unto the area where his heart is supposed to be. Heart being the symbolism of where the secrets lie, to which he wants. The left chest. "I want to know everything about how and WHY you became a Black Knight because quaintly, I spit at the notion that a Britannian kid wants to help the honorable Zero, take down Britannia. Sure, you are half Japanese, but the glass is either half full or half empty, which one are you? If you refuse to comply with my questioning, I'll garter you like a helpless fuzzy gerbil impaled on a stick."

Kevin saw the Ikugra's Captain come into his room and mentally face palmed. Why was he here? He was the last person Kevin wanted to see. He turned a side and then heard him come next to him and lay a clipboard where his leg was. Son of a bitch. He knew exactly why he was here and really wanted him to leave.
"You forgot to say please and thank you to the nurse, it's impolite in Japanese culture not to show your appreciation for their services"he started the conversation with. However, Kevin still kept ignoring him."Oh wait, I almost forgot this, would you like some traitor's chocolate? It tastes nice... to traitors"added Leonard Zoss. Kevin now got pissed and was about to pick his sword up which was to his left however, didn't.
Leonard raised his clipboard and then began to speak again."It says here that you're the son of a deceased rich Britannian governor, and somehow, you became a Black Knight"he said. Then Kevin turned to him and spoke two words."GET OUT!"he yelled. He was now truly pissed off at this bitch. However, no, Leonard didn't stop. He kept speaking. However, this time he ran his fingers to Kevin's heart and pressed it. However, he slapped the hand off of him. Then Leonard spoke again.
"I want to know everything about how and WHY you became a Black Knight because quaintly, I spit at the notion that a Britannian kid wants to help the honorable Zero, take down Britannia. Sure, you are half Japanese, but the glass is either half full or half empty, which one are you? If you refuse to comply with my questioning, I'll garter you like a helpless fuzzy gerbil impaled on a stick"Leonard said to him. Oh was this guy going to get it from Kevin. However, Kevin still kept his cool.
"Who's at the airship's wheel? That is your job right? And I don't think Zero will like that his Captain is interrogating people while he was actually gived the job to steer the airship and not interrogate people"said Kevin camly. He still ignored the questions he was asking him and turned back to his left.

Sakura padded down the hallway, her movement causing her sword to bump lightly against her hip. She had one destination in mind, though she must say…she wasn’t too thrilled by it.
~Flashback~ Sakura was in the training hall, trying to relieve some pent up stress. “Commandeeep!” The young woman suddenly froze in solid fear as a dagger landed right beside her head. Sakura blinked twice, standing up fully. “Oh, my. Kanzaki? What have I told you about entering without knocking when I’m in the middle of training? Do you fancy loosing an- “..I did…” “Pardon?” The girl inched a few steps to the side, placing a larger difference in space between her head and the dagger that was firmly implanted in the wall. “I did knock, Ma’am…I don’t think you heard me…” Sakura frowned slightly to herself. “Well, next time page m- “I did that too, Commander…” Sakura’s eyebrows furrowed as she dug into her pocket and pulled out her pager. And mentally cringed. Damn. Girl was right again. 10 missed messages. “I figured maybe you were training and so you wouldn’t hear it…that’s what happened last time…” Sakura bit out a somewhat nervous laugh. Ahh yes. Last time…yea, she reeaaallly had to start to learn to answer her pager… “I apologize, Kanzaki…now, what’s the problem? Has someone decided to play with Anju-san’s things without her permission again? Because if so, I can’t guarantee their gender not being at risk and- “No, no…it’s not that…it’s Kevin, Ma’am.” Sakura’s eyebrow twitched slightly. Parker. Last time she saw him the man was half bleeding to death on some floor. Yet somehow he managed to maintain his demanding persona. Quite remarkable, actually…huh. She closed her eyes, braced for the worst. “Please tell me he hasn’t done anything incredibly stupid, Kanzaki….please tell me he’s playing good patient and staying in his bed..” “Oh yes, he’s perfectly fine. Actually, that’s what I wanted to tell you. He’s been discharged from the hospital.” Sakura opened her eyes, a surprised look on her face. Well. This certainly not what she was expecting. How lovely. “Oh?” “Mmhm, he’s been let out of the hospital and is currently resting in his quarters. You told me to tell you as soon as he was let out to tell you so you could- “Ah yes! Thank you, Kanzaki…I’ll head over there now….sorry about the dagger again, didn’t mean to startle you…” Sakura ranted as she collected her things and headed out the door, being sure to pluck the dagger out along the way. “Oh, Kanzaki?” “Hai?” “Can you make sure there a pot of tea ready for me in my chambers? I have a feeling I may need it.”
~End Flashback~ Sakura sighed to herself. So the dude was discharged. That meant he wasn’t as bashed up as before. Meaning she could finally get some bloody answers. ‘If he dares to pull that same crap as before…he’s gonna be finding himself saying hello to those nurses again…’ Sakura thought to herself as her eyebrow twitched out of reflex. She had to get that checked out. Couldn’t be healthy, having a spazzing eye…
Sakura approached the door that lead to Kevin’s room, not really taking note of the door being slightly open. Knocking once, Sakura took a step forward.
“Oy, Parker. It’s Shiz- "GET OUT!" Sakura blinked twice to herself, her foot pausing mid-step. Well. Clearly someone was lively. “What the hell- "I want to know everything about how and WHY you became a Black Knight because quaintly, I spit at the notion that a Britannian kid wants to help the honorable Zero, take down Britannia. Sure, you are half Japanese, but the glass is either half full or half empty, which one are you? If you refuse to comply with my questioning, I'll garter you like a helpless fuzzy gerbil impaled on a stick.” Sakura frowned as she fully entered the room, her eyes falling immediately on the two figures present. The one in the bed was, obviously, Kevin. The other was… "Who's at the airship's wheel? That is your job right? And I don't think Zero will like that his Captain is interrogating people while he was actually gived the job to steer the airship and not interrogate people" Ah. Leonard Zoss. Ikaruga’s Captain. Her eyes narrowed slightly in thought as they flashed back and forth between the two men. What was Leonard doing here, anyways? He wasn’t the type who usually played visitor for the wounded. And by judging from the conversation….
TWANG Ugh. Headache alert.
Sakura walked up to Kevin’s bed, pulling a chair next to Leonard. “Oy, Oy…what’s with all this ruckus before the booze has been let out?” she said, in a somewhat tired voice as she sat down, her arms folding across her chest. She looked at Leonard, her face neutral. “What’s this crap you’re spouting about Parker being a Half?” An eyebrow rose. “You didn’t by any chance forget that I too, am a Half?” a humorless smile crept up the corners of her mouth. “Watch your tongue, Zoss.” She turned her head back to Kevin. “And as for you, you need to watch how you address those who are above you. While Zoss was not fully in the right for speaking to you like he did, he is your superior and thus deserves the respect that comes with it. Understood?” She sighed heavily as se sat back in her chair. “Now. Lets try this again, shall we?” She looked at the two men, the twang in her head becoming more prominent. She forced a smile to form on her face.
“Good morning.”

"GET OUT!" The rude response that vaguely effected the Captain. His rudeness only broadening the Captain's suspicion as he was here for a loyalty check up. Something Kevin fails to measure up to.
"Who's at the airship's wheel? That is your job right? And I don't think Zero will like that his Captain is interrogating people while he was actually gived the job to steer the airship and not interrogate people" Not interrogate people? Perhaps this kid is simply high on refrain or some other drug that he suspects to be at play. Even more suspicious to the cryptic Captain, or maybe he is trying to change the subject and get away from him, something typical of a man guilty of a crime. Along with being bi-polar as one minute, he threw that fit of his, and the next moment... he was composed, not to mention quite ill informed as well, the job of Ikaruga Airship Captain also involves rooting out traitors and interrogating prisoners alike, potential traitors as well.
Zoss had half a mind to pull out the pistol out of his coat and blow Kevin's kneecaps off his legs for the disrespect he has been getting. Namely to get him to talk as ways of his 'interrogation' than anything else. His grip on his fist tightening, was instinctually going to insert into his coat and pull out the .357 and do his said action.
Then his one eye snaps to the recent guest at the sound of the knock. Standing up from sitting down at Kevin's side by the bed, he takes the clipboard as he clicked both heels together, raising his hand to his crown as he gave a quick military salute before withdrawing it for his normal stance in acknowledgement of his superior. Given Sakura minding the fact people take her as a superior seriously, he decided maybe he should play the casual card and take a seat, after all, that was just to give her a brief acknowledgement.
"Oy, Oy…what’s with all this ruckus before the booze has been let out" She says, "What’s this crap you’re spouting about Parker being a Half? You didn’t by any chance forget that I too, am a Half?"
"Nein, not at all. But there is a distinct difference between the both of you, I know why you'd love to see a free Japan and have a reason for it, mein Anführerin, BUT I don't know that about him which is why I am here to find out, regular loyalty checks on suspicious elements." The Captain puts emphasis on the 'him' in his German-accented Japanese, but sighs nonetheless as he slouches back, placing his hand into the pocket of his coat whilst the other held the clipboard he snatched up earlier.
"And as for you, you need to watch how you address those who are above you. While Zoss was not fully in the right for speaking to you like he did, he is your superior and thus deserves the respect that comes with it. Understood?" He briefly smiles at the maturity she has been displaying on how she has been dealing with the situation, forgetting the tensions for just a moment. Reminding himself that Zero's faith on the ex-Knight of Round was quite well placed on the young Sakura.
"What a way to handle things, Frau Shizuka." He comments under his breathe, hard to tell if it was sarcasm or he really meant it given his persona.
"Good morning."
"Guten Morgen." Leonard says in that typical Swiss greeting of his. Pulling out a bar of chocolate as he tosses it to Sakura. "Care for choco?"

Kevin facepalmed when he saw Sakura come into the room. Why did she have to come in a time like this? Kevin asked himself. He then got up a bit and layer down on his bed. Almost half sitting. He turned to Sakura and then started to speak. "Hello Ms. Shizuka. How are you today?"asked Kevin. He still payed no attention to Zoss. He made it as though he and Sakura were the only people there.
He turned his head to the drawer his sword was on and looked at it. He sighed and wished he could be training right now."Just so that you may know Ms. Shizuka, I will only answer your question on what happened to me in Narita. Any question from him, I won't be answering"said Kevin as he meant it. He really wasn't going to answer any question of Zoss's. His questions reminded him of his past.
He past was full of dark things he didn't want to remember. However, the thoughts came in his head anyways. He remembered when he killed the Britannians who raided his house and killed his mother and brother. He remembered the man who he let live whobhad assassinated his father. Murdered him. That guy too was Britannian. He hated Britannians ever since then however, he didn't want to speak this out loud to anyone.

“Care for choco?" Sakura’s eyes swiveled downward as a something light landed gently on her lap. Eyebrows furrowing in confusion, she picked up the bar and read the label. Toblerone, eh? An eyebrow arched approvingly. Not bad…not bad at all. “Domo.” she said, offering Leonard a brief smile. She paused for a moment as if a thought struck her. “Hang on…I know it’s in here somewhere…” she muttered to herself as she dug through the many pockets of her cargo pants. “Ahahaha~” She sang out as her fingers found what they were searching for. Pulling forth a packet of Pocky, Sakura tossed it over to the Captain of the Ikaruga. One kind deed deserves another. “It may not be Swiss quality, but it’s- "Hello Ms. Shizuka. How are you today?" Sakura’s head snapped back to the man in bed. “Nani?” Did the man just call her…‘Miss Shizuka?’ Sakura’s nose crinkled in confusion. Ok, was it just her or was Kevin replaced by some alien since last time she saw him? The man never called her ‘Miss Shizuka’ before. Despite her constant badgering, he (like a certain Frenchman onboard…) always called her ‘Sakura.’ It wasn’t that she was complaining or anything, after all she did prefer it when people addressed her simply by last name, but it felt weird to have Kevin refer to her like that…so out of the blue. She frowned slightly in thought. Made her wonder what was in those IVs back in the hospital… She mentally shrugged. Meh, whatever. Maybe the man had been struck by some divine lightening bolt or had some epiphany. Never know what a loss of blood can do to you. “I’m…fine, thank you. I trust you are feeling better…took you long enough…two bloody days…three if you count the day you received treatment…” Her eyes caught Kevin looking longingly at his sword resting by his bedpost. A soft smile tugged the corners of her mouth. “I expect you to begin training immediately Parker, I hope you know that.” She opened the chocolate bar, broke off a piece and popped it into her mouth. “It’s not like lounging around all day is going to do you any good.” she shrugged lightly to herself. Sure in a normal situation, one would expect Kevin to get at least a week’s recovery from his wounds. But this was Sakura. Her philosophy was that the best way to treat an injury was to begin to strengthen it as soon as the bleeding stopped. Best way to strengthen a wound? Training.
Plus, Sakura was just a natural Hitler when it came to these things. Sure it sometimes gave her a bad rep amongst her underlings, but she did this because she knew she had no choice. This was war. Mercy was not a friend of War’s.
"Just so that you may know Ms. Shizuka, I will only answer your question on what happened to me in Narita…” “Hmm?” Sakura turned her head briefly towards Leonard before turning back to Kevin. An eyebrow slowly rose. Wait a sec…was Kevin doing what she thought he was doing? “Any question from him, I won't be answering."
He was. He so freaking was. He was giving Leonard the silent treatment. Sakura felt her eyebrow twitch slightly. The bloody silent treatment…the kind that seven-year-olds play on one another when one steals the other’s cookie. She mentally clonked her head to a brick wall. Pity it was only mental.
“Parker…while I’m sure you are upset over Zoss’ initial treatment of you, don’t you think it’s time you got over it? It’s been ten minutes already.” She placed a no-nonsense look on her face. “Quit it with the childish antics, alright?” She glanced over at Zoss. “Besides…I can’t stop him from interrogating you. It is his job to ask questions to anyone he feels may be worthy of questioning. Now does this mean you’re automatically labeled a traitor? Of course not. They are just precautionary methods, Parker. Nothing more. So no need to get all uptight over it, alright?” she raised an eyebrow. “’Sides, being all reluctant like this usually makes you seem suspicious, y’know? Best to just go with the flow.” she cracked a dry smile before sighing heavily, gaining a more serious look on her face. “All joking aside, you mentioned several times back at the hospital of a certain ‘he.’” she folded her arms and eyed Kevin square in the eye.
“Define ‘he.’”

"Hello Ms. Shizuka. How are you today?" Zoss blinked, taken aback by his sudden politeness. Little schwine going all bi-polar here. Fingers tapping against his chin as he further observed this.
"Just so that you may know Ms. Shizuka, I will only answer your question on what happened to me in Narita. Any question from him, I won't be answering" The silent treatment, eh? Leonard extends off a dark smirk with nasty intentions in his head at this moment. Oh how stupid verily does this boy not realize the mistake he has done in making the wrong enemy. Playing the Saint, Zoss turned attention back to Sakura with a pleasant smile.
"Domo."
"Hang on…I know it’s in here somewhere…"
Leo patiently waited, muttering of hers reaching his ears prior. Smiling and nodding, not fully focused on Sakura right now with Pocky lying right on the lap of his coat. Whisked away unto his pocket with a smile of daggers on his face. How patient he was in this case. With the stupid 'in'-subordinate officer.
"I’m…fine, thank you. I trust you are... blah blah blah, yadda yadda..." Her voice starting to fade, concentration now on Kevin. Moments passed with Sakura squarely on Kevin, to which Zoss casually strolled over to the boy's side. Hand in his pocket, cigar on his mouth to which somehow he lit up during that interval of Sakura's lecture to which he didn't listen to. Adjusting his cap, whilst Kevin's attention was on Sakura (assuming it was since he was talking to Sakura).
Hand dips into his pocket and slips out with something brandished, blackened metal with a polished grip, and a hole at the end, long barrel. The .357 revolver. Sights at Kevin's back calf to which he was right there on the bed. Point blank range quite hard to miss at with this range unless the shooter was incredibly bad with a gun or the victim was incredible lucky, or both. Doubt it.
Simple squeeze followed with a simple backing of his arm, ejection of the bullet with the shell remaining in the chamber as it switches to the next.
"Herr Kevin, not answering me was the stupidest thing you could've done. Now you stay in this hospital for sometime now and reflect on what you've done." The Captain calmly announced, inhaling the cigarette with most of the noxious fumes billowing within his lungs before puffed out in all one go through his nostrils in the form of rings.
Blue eye shoots to Sakura with visor tipped to her, a salute of acknowledgement of presence. "I apologize for this display of force, Sakura, if that is okay to casually call you that, but he deserved it for the silent treatment and disrespect. An 'in'-subordinate officer. Now he won't be giving me those eyes, and as I'd say, spare the rod, spoil the child."

Kevin for a brief second stopped looking at Sakura and swiftly moved his eye towards Leonard. He turned over to him and saw his hands move quickly to his pocket. He knew he would be getting the answer of his silent treatment now. He saw the shape of a revolver come out and only had a second to react. Though his body was weak, he would not just lay down there and get shot at. He quickly moved a fist to Leonard's man spot and punched it with brute force. The pressure of the punch would either have made Leo drop the gun or atleast flinch. Then quickly he raced to his sword and picked it up. He then jumped off of his bed and felt the throbing pain and almost fell to his knees.
He then got up with his sword up and looked at Leo.Why does everyone in the world want to kill him? He turned over to Sakura and began to speak but still was looking at Leo."May I ask why our captain is trying to kill me?"he asked and was ready to dodge a bullet anytime. He then started to back away. He didn't want to die and the only way to do that was by running away from the damn captain. So, he started going back until he was out the door and shut it. And ran down the hall into another room. Which took him to the Mess Hall. Then he shot down the Mess Hall out into the Parking Lot and waited there.
He raised his gun towards the door and then listened to any foot steps."This is Kevin J. Parker here. I want you to send a message to Zero that our captain is trying to kill me"he said into a frequency that would go to every soldier in the whole ship. He then walked backwards towards his car. So if he had to, he could drive away. For his body still was extremely weak.

Sakura remained seated, her arms folded across her chest, her eyes looking squarely at Kevin. Her mind, however, was elsewhere. Kevin had mentioned of a ‘he’ back at the hospital. This ‘he’ clearly was the enemy. Question was, who? The Black Knights had accumulated a variety of enemies, ranging from the obvious Britannian, to the radical who felt they weren’t doing enough for the Japanese.
According to Kevin, he had been training when he was attacked…he claimed that he was innocent in all this, and that he tried to avoid conflict. She doubted it. She had been to enough balls to know that it took two to tango. Odds were stupid Pride blinded the Subordinate Officer.
Her eyebrows furrowed slightly in thought. ‘But…how did whoever it was know that Kevin was a BK?’ she bit her lip in thought. While it was true that Kevin did not mention that the person knew whether or not his attacker knew of his identity, she could only presume that he was attacked because he was a member of the BKs. Rarely did you hear of the average citizen being attacked.
…though that was a possibility too…
An all-too-familiar twang echoed throughout her head. She cringed and hands flew to her temples. Great. A headache. Again. Super. “Parker, question. Did this ‘he’ kno-
The sound of a gun clicking caused her ears to twitch. She snapped her head to the right where Leonardo was standing, gun aimed at Kevin. Her eyes widened slightly, an eyebrow arching. “What are-
The sound of a bullet being shot.
Sakura didn’t think as she lunged forward, just as the intended target moved, her sword unsheathed, her blade taking the blow. "Herr Kevin, not answering me was the stupidest thing you could've done. Now you stay in this hospital for sometime now and reflect on what you've done.” Sakura remained in knelt position, her eyes staring straight down at the mattress in front of her face blank. Her face was unreadable to the outside observer, but inwardly she was having a lovely little monologue. It went something along the lines of this: ‘What the hell just happened? Did he just try to shoot Parker? Before I was done with him? What the hell is Zoss on? Is this what happens when you eat too much Swiss chocolate? Thank god the sheets are ok, would have been a bitch to replace them. Is that a stain I see? Tch. Messy one, isn’t he? Speaking of which, is he ok? Didn’t collapse again, did he? Be a pain in my ass if he did. I swear, what the hell-
"May I ask why our captain is trying to kill me?" Ah. Apparently the man was all right. One less thing for her to worry about. The sound of the door being shut, followed by the faint sound of footsteps. Guess he ran off. Can’t blame him, really. Not many people would fancy being in the same room as someone who just tried to blow their kneecaps off. "This is Kevin J. Parker here. I want you to send a message to Zero that our captain is trying to kill me" The mental Sakura groaned loudly and clonked her head to a brick wall. Zero. She would have to report to him. Frak. ‘And somehow this is all going to be my fault…’ The chibi her thought scornfully as it plotted many ways to make Leonardo pay. Most of which involved asking Anju for permission to borrow Lockjaw. Both of them.
"I apologize for this display of force, Sakura, if that is okay to casually call you that…” Sakura blinked once. “…but he deserved it for the silent treatment and disrespect. An 'in'-subordinate officer. Now he won't be giving me those eyes, and as I'd say, spare the rod, spoil the child." Sakura’s body did not move an inch. She remained quiet for a few seconds as she searched for her voice.
“…You…” she finally began, her tone unpleasantly even. “You…you have ten seconds to explain the logic behind your madness. Ten seconds to explain the logic behind you shooting at a man whom I was not yet finished talking to.” Her eyes slowly rolled over to Leonardo, followed by the rest of her head.
“Starting now.”

"May I ask why our captain is trying to kill me?" A smile twinged slowly on Leonard's lips, it was subtle and not so noticeable. It was just that the Swiss found this a bit humorous in a way, perhaps unknown. A enjoyment and a sense of solace in firing a .357 at Kevin, at least that's the way it seems.
"This is Kevin J. Parker here. I want you to send a message to Zero that our captain is trying to kill me" His smile grew more from the statement, eye shrinks, cheeks puff, his expression more of that of a humored person. Waving around the smokeless .357 revolver as if it were a toy as he continued to listen, his smile soon died down to a sarcastic expression, a lack of enthusiasm in his face accompanied by neutrality. Simply pulling back his wrist with the gun to avoid the punch, it was rather child's play. Although shame he just ran off like that.
"…You… you…you have ten seconds to explain the logic behind your madness. Ten seconds to explain the logic behind you shooting at a man whom I was not yet finished talking to."
Looking at his pistol before looking back at Sakura, he pulled back the hammer as he pointed the pistol itself at her from where he stood, which is to say a bed post. Pulling the trigger as a large smoke of gunpowder erupted. There was no bullets. There was not even a bullet to expect to be hit by, it was simply that that chambers were empty, with only the shells in each six chambers. Not a single bullet in each shell, it was empty.
"Blanks, mein Frau." He said cooly, flipping the pistol around his finger as he began to smile, "If I had a reason to shoot Herr Parker right here, it would be for his rather... poor sense of taste in weapons. A sword won't do, at least not in the modern world."
That was a rather simple explanation coming out from a rather complicated man, a torturer so to say and an airship commander. Such a twisted combination yet he was rather intrigued with his commander, either ways, he didn't come into this spot for nothing. He came here for a reason, not just to check up on Parker like that. Either ways, he was rather gleeful to have irked everyone, their suffering is much to his enjoyment, a sadomasochist one would say.
"I am rather impressed anyways, Herr Parker has a quick reflex to him. I would like to add him to my crew, and my inspection was but a test to see if this insubordinate officer had what it takes to join up... mein mistake, 'subordinate officer' mind you." Pausing for a moment in his light humored tone, he added, "I believe there is someone who has put him into the hospital who would like to meet him. An old friend."
The Airship Captain sat down on the side of the bed, placing one leg unto the bed as he stretched it, twirling around his pistol. Quite a pleasant fellow he was, with a rather cynical and somewhat 'threatening' sense of humor.
"Hoo-wee, the Commander-in-Chief will be quiet pissed. Definitely pissed. Alas, those were quite fun times." Thought Zoss, giving Sakura quite a cheeky smirk.
Taking up his radio from his belt, he simply addresses the radio through Kevin J. Parker's radio. "Come back Herr Parker, that was just a test. The bullets were blanks. I have someone I'd like you to meet right after you pop right in, I believe it was the same man who put you into the hospital in the first place." He beckons calmly, dipping the radio right back to his belt.
"Where were we again? Oh yes, the blanks..." He whispered, pausing as he waited for the Officer.

Kevin just stood there in the Parking Lot. Once or twice he would hear foot steps thinking was Zoss. However, it was just his mind playing games with him. He then started to walk back into the base since he thought if Zoss was to attack him, he would have done it by now.
As he made his way back, it took him a long time. He took detours and did that since he didn't was to come into Zoss' way. If he did, it would kill him. The guy had a gun and he had a sword. Not a good combination. He walked down and made a right when suddenly his radio started talking to him.
"Come back Herr Parker, that was just a test. The bullets were blanks. I have someone I'd like you to meed right after you pop right in, I believe it was the same man who put you into the hospital in the first place"said Zoss.
Blank bullets? Person who put me in the hospital in the first place? He didn't know which to be more angry at. Zoss playing with his mind shooting blank bullets or the guy who put him here.
"I'll deal with Zoss before I go back to that little loser"he said. He would surely hurt that person for what he did to Kevin.
He ran down the hall and back into the room."That wasn't funny"he told Zoss. However, he totally forgot about dealing with him. He so wanted to rip that kids heart out right now.
"Though may I ask you, where is this guest of ours? I am dying to see him"he said with a grin. The second he saw the guy, they second he would stab him.

At the sound of the trigger being pulled, Sakura braced herself, subconsciously tilting her body to dodge it if possible. But when the smoke cleared, instead of there being a bullet hole where it should be, there was…
"Blanks, mein Frau." Sakura blinked twice. Blanks? The bullets were nothing but freaking blanks?! She took a deep breathe, willing herself calm. No, mustn’t flip out yet…yet being key word. "If I had a reason to shoot Herr Parker right here, it would be for his rather... poor sense of taste in weapons. A sword won't do, at least not in the modern world." Emerald eyes narrowed. Oho~ So a sword is of no use then, is it? Too archaic perhaps? A humorless smirk graced her face. Stupid head.
Sheathing her sword, Sakura sat down on the edge of Kevin’s bed, her eyebrow arched slightly. “Poor taste, hmm? So says the man who fires false bullets at a wounded comrade. But then again, what do I know? I’m just a lass who has poor taste.” Sakura said, shrugging her shoulders lightly. "I am rather impressed anyways, Herr Parker has a quick reflex to him. I would like to add him to my crew, and my inspection was but a test to see if this insubordinate officer had what it takes to join up... mein mistake, 'subordinate officer' mind you." Sakura tilted her head to the right slightly, a disbelieving eyebrow arching. Right. Mr. I-like-to-torture-people-for-the-heck-of-it was merely testing Kevin. There was no ulterior motive, say sick pleasure, behind this act at all. Perfectly innocent.
She was soon rather believe a tap dancing monkey. “Is that so?” she said simply, her shoulders shrugging again. “If you feel Parker can be of value to your division, then I see no harm in letting him. Granted of course, these so-called ‘tests’ of yours aren’t an everyday thing. Judging from Parker’s reaction, I highly doubt his nerves would last long. I don’t need to hear my men having nervous breakdowns, understand?”
That would be a pain…getting a call one day being told that a certain Kevin Parker has been whisked off to some shrink. The reason: fake dynamite going off while he was in the shower. She blinked dryly to herself. Yea. And somehow it would be all her fault. Sakura eyed Leonardo. ‘…he would so have fun doing that too…’ "I believe there is someone who has put him into the hospital who would like to meet him. An old friend." At that statement, Sakura’s attention was brought back. “Friend?” she repeated, blinking twice. Friend? What friend? Friend as in actual bosom buddy, or friend as in should they meet each other there will be blood? Sakura crinkled her eyebrows at Leonardo. The man was grinning. Cheekily, might she mention.
Five bucks this ‘friend’ was of the latter sort. Sakura sighed heavily, feeling a twang pierce through her skull. Yay, bitch headache~ Just what she needed right now…fan-friggin-tastic.
Rubbing her temples tiredly, Sakura bit on a stick of Pocky. She didn’t have tea on her at the moment. She would have to substitute for now. ‘Guess this ‘friend’ was the dude Parker had a little rumble and tumble with…’ “…I have someone I'd like you to meet right after you pop right in, I believe it was the same man who put you into the hospital in the first place." Guess was right. Sakura raised an eyebrow at Leonardo. From what he was saying, the man was already in their hands…how come she hadn’t been informed of this? Who gave the orders to go around kidnapping people? She certainly hadn’t given them…had Zero? No, he would have told her…but then again, their masked leader had been neglecting the whole ‘tell your underlings what’s going on’ aspect of leading…wouldn’t be a surprise to her if he had simply forgotten to mention it to her.
But still. Who the hell was this dude who was apparently so important that the Airship Captain felt the need to go and kidnap him? Sure he had busted up on of their own, but that was something minor. It wasn’t as if it was a full head-on war that had broken out. Odds are it was some pseudo manly bonding rumble. Sakura bit her lip. Unless this guy knew something…something that Leonardo knew he knew. Her eyes narrowed in thought. ‘What’s your logic behind all this, Zoss?’
"Where were we again? Oh yes, the blanks..." Sakura blinked, snapping out of her revere. “Hmm? Oh yea…just be careful when doing that, will you Zoss? As I said, already, we really don’t need to add to the stress levels here. A little test is good and all, just maybe think of the person’s condition before you go around firing bullets, ok?”
“That wasn't funny" Sakura turned her head to the door. Ah. He’s back. And looking quite well for a man who was supposedly still in recovery. Sakura arched an eyebrow. “Perhaps firing wasn’t such a bad idea…” she murmured, a somewhat amused grin gracing her face. Maybe it gave Kevin the jolt he needed to snap out of his ‘woe is me, I am injured’ state. Her eyes slid over to Zoss, her eyebrows arching. "Though may I ask you, where is this guest of ours? I am dying to see him" Her eyes rolled back to Kevin. Mmhm. Definitely in higher spirits. She made a mental note that perhaps firing false bullets at recovering soldiers wasn’t such a bad idea after all. “Ah about that Zoss, quick question: how long has whoever this person is been here?” She turned fully on the bed to face him. “Please tell me you haven’t been having too much fun with him…” she forced back a groan at the thoughts that flooded her mind.
“We do need him in interrogating condition, after all.”
