"It is a pleasure to Meet you all, I am Izuhara Miyu" Rachel introduced in front of the board."As of Today, SGT Izuhara will be joining us" Major Furukawa said.
Rachel looked onto the faces of the other witches, all of them look like the characters from the anime. Perhaps it would be better saying she is in the alternate dimension of the anime.
"Well, I"ll leave you, play nice" Major Furukawa said as she left with Wing Commander Minna Dietlinde Wilcke, who"s smiled and waved at her before leaving with the Major. She had met the reddish hair beauty earlier. Rachel had hoisted the M9 pistol from her on her hip. It seems that the Commanders name didn"t deviate from the original, how odd.
"I Wonder if its just Major"s name that was changed." Rachel"s attention was then caught by the blonde har girl who abruptly stood up with a whole att.i.tude and left with greeting her. "That was Perrine, well, she was a brat even in the anime series."
Rachel thought when she suddenly felt someone behind her, she quickly grabbed the person hands that where approaching her. "Ummm, just what are you trying to do?"
"Heheh" The young girl with pigtails pulled of a smug face before.
"Your name?" Rachel continued.
"Its Francesca" The girl said disappointed.
Rachel smiled as "There is no way in h.e.l.l, that I"m going to be dragged into your fanservice" she thought. "If you are wondering what my chest size is its D" Rachel giggled as she let the little girls" hands go.
"How so you the same size and me and Lyn" Said the orange haired girl. "I"m Charlotte, but call me "Shirley", okay" she said.
"Of course," Rachel said as she was dodging the midgit trying to touch her.
"Eila" said another young girl who was holding another sleepy girl. "And this here is Sonya, she works the nights, so she is a tad bit sleepy."
"Well, it will be a pleasure working with you both" Rachel said as she palmed Fancesca face as the last straw. She waved at the two who left the room not long after.
"I"m Lynette Bishop" Said the dirty blonde girl her hair braided back, she looked shy and stand offish.
"I am pleased to meet you as well, Miss Lyn" Rachel said before lighting up "AH! Major Sa, ahem" Rachel coughed as she was about to call the Major by another name. "Major Furukawa had said we begin training this afternoon, after you"ve shown me around the base. If you"d like we can get started now."
"Ahh, that-"
Rachel let go of Francesca head, apparently the girl had so much momentum that she fell the moment Rachel left her go, leaving her grabbing the back of the girls shirt to keep her from falling on her face.
"Oh yeah? Miyu" said Shirley suddenly "Are you always going to dress like that?"
Shirley said commenting on Rachel conservative outfit.
"These parts rarely get cold, soooo"
"I"ll be fine" Rachel smiled as she let go of Francesca shift when the girl found her ground and stood up on her own. She then ran over to Shirley and embraced before rubbing her small face into….
Rachel turned her face away "Shall we go"
"Ah, Yes
Rachel had been showing Rachel around the base, the quiet girl in the anime was very good friend with Yoshika but sadly that person for some reason has been excluded. The rest of the witches here are pretty much similar to their anime counterparts.
"And that"s it for the tour" Lynette said sadly her expression was stiff. "I"ll see you for training this afternoon...At the Flight-line" The girl trailed off before turning to leave.
Rachel looked in amazement out how s.p.a.cious her room is, it wasn"t huge but a good size. "Lynette" she called.
"Yes?" The girl turned around her braid and chest swinging dramatically. Making Rachel frown for a split second. （￣ー￣）
"Earlier when you were showing me around you sounded a tad bit unsettled…. I was just wondering if anything was wrong. I hope I didn"t offend you"
"Ah, no you didn"t, it"s just that…." She averted her eyes.
"Please, we have enough time, so why won"t you share what"s on your mind" Rachel, then used her shadow-wearing to create a comforting atmosphere for the girl.
Lynette nodded and then they both sat down on the Rachel"s new bed, just a talk between to girls.
"…."
"Lynette, how about we start with where are you from?"
"Ahh, I"m from here…."
"I see from the Britannian commonwealth…. Ahh! I Know"
"….." Lynette just looked at her.
"Lets do this guessing game, okay…So from Britannia, based on your pose I say you have a lot of siblings"
"Yes, I"m the middle of eight"
"You don"t seem poor or anything and I think your family has a history of being in the military…..Am I close"
"Yes, really close" Lynette muttered surprised.
"hehehe" Rachel giggled
[…Cheater]
"Both my mother and my sister, are in the military."
"Lynette why did you join."
After a moment "I wanted to help people….But, I haven"t been helping anyone"
"You no that"s not true."
"I…I can"t even fly much less shot in battle, I"m useless"
"Do you really think that."
"Yes, I can"t do anything right." She said teary eyed
"….." Rachel stared off into s.p.a.ce for a moment "Useless" she thought and stayed silent for a long time.
[Hey, you both have been quiet for a while]
Coming back to reality Rachel stood up "Well we should go to training; I"m sure Major Furukawa is waiting for us"
"Ah, Yes." Lynette said after a pause it was something in Rachel"s eyes that caught her off guard.
Major Furukawa had for starters made both of them start running laps on the flight-line. As Rachel was running, she was in wonder "I didn"t know I could run this well" in fact she wasn"t even half as tired after running two laps which is equivalent to two miles. She usually, use her powers as support.
Lynette, on the other hand, was a sweating mess.
"that"s all for today," Major Furukawa said and then left but not before giving the two a time of their next training session.
"Ah, thank you," Lynette said as Rachel handed her a bottle of cold water. Her face became relaxed and flushed. And then it blanked at Rachel "Miyu, you"re not sweating a single bit even while wearing that." She commented on Rachels outfit.
Rachel was wearing refreshing back pants and a light-blue tank-top that"s on top of a long-sleeved shirt. "That"s what this outfit is supposed to do"
"I"m not sure that"s how it works"
"Well, I"m am going to get a shower before starting dinner."
"Dinner?"
"Yes, Major Furukawa and Commander Minna suggested I start cooking for the team as of today."
"Then this morning."
"Yes, both breakfast and Lunch were done by me"
"Really? They very delicious"
"Oh, why thank you" Rachel giggled
Major Furukawa sat in Commander Minna"s office as she sipped some tea with her.
"Are you worried?" Commander Minna said with a gentle smile.
"Somewhat…That Izuhara girl is" Major Furukawa leaned back as she looked out the window to see Rachel and Lynette talking as they walked from the flight-line.
"She certainly is strange, but she makes good food and tea." Commander Minna smiled as she took in another freshly made cracker. Making Major Furukawa laugh at her before abruptly stopping.
"What"s wrong?"

"This window isn"t see-through on the other side is it?"
"No it isn"t, Why?"
"…." Major Furukawa had nothing to say. As she stared outside and then frowned.
-In the Kitchen-
Rachel was in an ap.r.o.n as she picked up a saucer and took a sip. A look of pure joy on her face she was always thankful for Maddison who went to school, for the culinary arts. It was Maddison ultimate talent and skill. Something Rachel had much joy in perfecting when she came to this world Twenty years ago.
Needless to say, she takes pride in her cooking abilities.
Rachel had already taken plates out and filled the table. In the Izuhara house their where about twenty-two people to feed on a daily basis for dinner. So, cooking for nine people was child"s play for her.
"Ahh, Miyu" she heard Francesca enthusiastic voice, before running to her.
"Francesca, if you even try it I won"t give you dinner." (^‿^)
"Ahh" (⊙△⊙)
"hha," Shirley laughed from behind.
Rachel then smiled as one by one the team entered and this time the two faces she had not seen earlier today showed up.
"Ah, you two must be Erica Hartmann and Gertrud Barkhorn. Nice to meet you" Rachel said as she continued to serve the food.
"Likewise, So, did you cook all this?" The short blonde-haired girl known as Eric said while the brown-haired pigtailed girl simply nodded with a sharp gaze.
"Ah! Yes, I will be cooking the meals from now on"
"Oh, Don"t mind if I do it smells really great."
"Help yourself," Rachel said before turning her gaze to Barkhorn the had not stopped smiling at her, Rachel just as she gave the women a smile.
"What on earth is this!"
Making Rachel turned around to see Perrine looking disgusted at Rachels" food. "This B****" she thought as she continued to smile. "Is there anything wrong?"
Perrine dramatically poured the soup back into its bowl "What are you feeding us? This…. This"
"It is called Zuppa Tozcanna, it is a light-colored soup made with Italian sausage, potatoes, onions, and my specialty chicken soup." Rachel said.
"There is nothing good about good about this at all."
Rachel glanced at the bowls of the others that are completely empty and smirked before giggling.
"Excuse me are you laughing." Perrine fumed which started P**** Rachel off even more. But, she kept her poker face.
-Night-
Rachel had already cleaned up the table, the rest of the witches had already gone to sleep. Rachel stood far into the flight line and took in the breeze and sea air.
"I wonder what a good song would to sing for a moment like this would be."
You gave me words of kindness
You held me when I was lonely
Sad things happened
But together we shared
the joy of early spring
I searched for the words that I wanted to leave behind
for someone far away
before my time ended
I simply repeated, "Thank you"
I hope that"s the only thing
that reaches your heart
May my heart
soar far through the sky
and convey my smile to you
A warmth
that feels like the last traces
of the fading spring—
If I can quietly
leave just that inside of you
I"ll smile for you
Rachel giggled and then paused as she realized her song was being repeated to her. "A Neuroi?" Rachel squinted her eyes and then laughed at herself. "If it was this close then, Sanya would have called it in, wouldn"t she?"
Since it was merely singing back what"s the harm in sharing.
And until the creak of dawn Rachel continued to sing all types of songs, with them being repeated back to her.
