Rio leaned back in her chair after hours upon hours of writing. Letting her pen drop from her right hand, she wriggled her fingers before shaking her hands to stop herself from getting cramps. [b]"Well... almost finished the first draft..."[/b] Rio looked down at the papers in front of her before letting her mind drift for a moment. [b]"I should let the Captain know of Takara Asuhara's situation... Although that woman, Sui Sanda I believe, didn't give me a chance to ask where she is at the moment... I just can't wrap my head around that situation though, why tell me [i]that[/i] much despite not even knowing me personally? Information like that... could result in getting arrested so why be so open about it?... Killing is still murder, no matter what your Clan's traditions are..."[/b] Rio raised an eyebrow, truly confused at why that member spoke so openly about what had happened and acted as if attempted murder was nothing... Rio then sighed. [b]"... I can't help but be reminded of the Clan I belong to... It may of be my origin... but... ... that clone"[/b] [i]'"But Huerona is just a stupid nickname now, your real is Rio."'[/i] [b]"A name or a place doesn't define a person... But... I'm not this [i]'Huerona'[/i]... I don't know anything about her... who I was, so how can I be her?.... Who even am I? Huerona? or Rio? Who even is Rio?... I really shouldn't let my mind drift too much.... It's best to just to stop thinking about this altogether...."[/b] 

Rio closed her eye for a moment, feeling complicated and unsettled when other feelings started to rush through her, causing her to sigh once more as through her drifting she was reminded of a certain someone.... [b]"... If only you were here Kenta... It's been... weird... knowing that I'll never get to look up to you again.... Three months have past and I still can't let you go.... I'm grateful that I have Kaizo back... but I can't help but want to see my best friend again, even if it's for a short amount of time... I just... want to know you're... Okay"[/b] Rio took a breath, feeling her head start to hurt as she held back her tears. After another deep breath, Rio opened her eye. [i]'Stop this... You need to get back to work....'[/i] Rio picked up her pen again and hovered the tip over the paper, but wasn't writing anything... She then placed her pen down and reached into the secret inner pocket of her uniform, pulling out the headphones Kenta had left her three months ago. Without another word, she placed them in her ears and closed her eye again. Despite not hearing any music, they made her feel a little more peaceful.... It was almost like she could feel Kenta's presence resonating through the headphones... She felt like at any moment, she'd be able to hear Kenta's voice through the headphones even though they didn't work and wasn't plugged into anything making the theory impossible... but, the thought made her feel happier and a less alone atleast so she didn't question herself. Focusing her senses so that she could feel Kaizo's spiritual energy calmed Rio completely but she kept the headphones in, still hoping that if she listened through them enough, she'd hear Kenta's voice. Looking down at her paper, Rio pressed her pen down onto it and started to write, working towards finishing the report and then re-reading it three times to ensure no mistakes and that it her writing was consistently neat, even re-writing a few pages if need be.
