charizard didnt look like a weapon did he? you didnt look like one either its the same
FROM: red@cdc.org
but youre a good friend to do that i want to find more ways to protect charizard here too

thoughts ease, and he feels just a bit more relieved. ]

i'm glad charizards really nice i wouldn't want that theyre like box animals
[ — and before he can leave that hanging and be unhelpful: ]
FROM: sawada.tsunayoshi@cdc.org
theyre special animals that you keep in these little boxes they were actually made like technology and a lot of people used them as weapons since that's what they were made for
FROM: sawada.tsunayoshi@cdc.org
but natsu is my friend kind of like a part of me we help each other so i..... think i know how you feel
[ Woah. Box animals might've sound questionable to some people, but for Red, there's an interest. ]
FROM: red@cdc.org
all box animals were made? or the boxes you keep them in? we have balls called pokeballs. we can put pokemon inside them that way you can keep more than pokemon with you
FROM: red@cdc.org
but theres a pokemon created by humans too. two actually. sorta its called porygon. its like a computer pokemon. you dont find them in the wild. you have to buy them or win them
FROM: red@cdc.org
porygon isnt like most pokemon but you still want to make sure its happy and well in my world the people who treat pokemon as weapons are the kind up to no good
they were all made by scientists and a biologist i think its kind of a secret where im from so only a few people know about them
FROM: sawada.tsunayoshi@cdc.org
i even have a box with me? i can show you sometime i found it on the same day we met it came out of one of those holes but i dont know whats in it
FROM: sawada.tsunayoshi@cdc.org
people that have them usually keep just one it sounds really easy to have a pokemon.... like you can buy them?? and win them? they just walk around in the woods with other animals where your from?
FROM: sawada.tsunayoshi@cdc.org
but um! box animals! theyre animals! with a type of flame that matches yours that's ..... where it gets kind of confusing but there are more types like rain and sun and storm but thats only a few
FROM: sawada.tsunayoshi@cdc.org
they help you, if youre fighting something or someone the way they attack depends on what type of flame they are some can even turn into things to help even more and even if they were made they have hearts and feelings they want to be friends too
FROM: sawada.tsunayoshi@cdc.org
natsu used to stay in a box but they made him a ring so its easier to take him with me and call him out hes with my other ring though i don't know when i can have him back either
cant you look inside the box? i dont know what you mean by a ring like a hoop?
[ How would a hoop be easier to carry around than a box... ]
FROM: red@cdc.org
was natsu with you when you were brought here? i sent an email to mothership. they said you can see anyone who was with you when were on the ship i had six pokemon on me but they took everyone

but charizard
FROM: red@cdc.org
but box animals are fire types and also another type too? thats how pokemon are. they can be one type but they can have another one with that charizards a fire and flying type
FROM: red@cdc.org
pokemon are animals. i mean it seems to mean the same thing a creature that isnt human and theres some pokemon that are easy to take care of but not all of them
and you need a special ring to open boxes my other one is still with wherever they keep our things
[ but— but now, there's something super important that's been said. there's even a pause before he resumes typing. the thought of seeing natsu again sends a small surge of excitement through him— like seeing a friend that moved and didn't tell you when they'd come back. it's been ages since he's seen him.
alright— ]

when can we see them? did she say? will we have to wait to keep them with us or??

so i think we have to wait i cant tell you. sorry i dont really understand why they took them from us in the first place especially pokemon and your box animals. we can keep them in small objects so
FROM: red@cdc.org
why not let us keep them? i figured it was another way of having something over our heads. to make us do our jobs
its ok most of us don't know much about what goes on anyway! at least you get to see them soon? im going to ask her about natsu to be sure and....... maybe that too
her name is hanna. she makes fire come out of her fingers. and i dont know why the cdc does what it does when you came here did they tell you what you were going to do? they didnt me. but they told
[ being genuine, there—! despite also being able to set his hands on fire . . . ]
FROM: sawada.tsunayoshi@cdc.org
they didnt a man in a suit came up to me while i was going home from school he said everyone was in danger and asked if i would do anything for my friends to keep them safe after i said yes i was in a place called selena suddenly then after a few days there i woke up on the ship
did time pass for everyone else before you woke on the ship i was on macha and then i wasnt until they dropped us down again wondering how normal that is
FROM: red@cdc.org
they got me to come the same way kinda a woman told me people would be in danger and they needed my help. didnt say anything about killing anyone or destroying planets
FROM: red@cdc.org
but they told a man what they wanted him to do and what he would do.
i think so! we woke up in a bubble i dont know how much time but it did pass
FROM: sawada.tsunayoshi@cdc.org
i think thats on purpose.... they know about us before asking if they knew we wouldnt and said we'd have to kill people and planets itd be alot harder!!
FROM: sawada.tsunayoshi@cdc.org
some people its just some people can know and still do it without thinking twice

FROM: red@cdc.org
i hate it here
[ Red types the words in selfishly, sitting on it but then hitting send even though there's no point. Because he can't think of anything else and it's the truth, no matter the different kinds of people he's met.

[ it would have been nice if it were all a dream. perhaps not in the aspect that all these people he's met would have been just his imagination, but that the cdc would be nonexistent. there would be no danger and they'd have nothing to worry about. no planets to destroy, no populations to mass murder— nothing of torture every day.
maybe one day he would wake up, but so far, all he's been waking up to is his cdc bunk.
a little bit of him wouldn't be writhing each day— he wouldn't find himself crying in his bunk, or being stricken with nightmares of the same neraki child who fell limb in his arms. because of him. he did that.
there isn't a moment where tsuna fears for what he could turn into. how could he hold onto all of himself while faced with all of this? like many, he's in the middle of a knife or a sword pointed to him. the millions of lives and loved ones he knows, or that that he knows nothing of? what about the billion others that each person here represents?
some would find it easier, but tsuna doesn't. both ways are horrible. both ways break him each time he thinks of his world, and each time he thinks of who he has to help hurt to keep them safe. ]
theres a lot of people who will help us we can help them back when were stronger
[ He types it without believing it (not right then, not in that moment), adding more and more on just to make it sound further encouraging. And if Tsuna could read it and find it that, then all the better, it worked.
They all needed a little hope somewhere, somehow. ]
