Title: Apart from the Ocean (part 17)

estirose
Fandom: Kamen Rider Kiva
Words: ~600
Characters: Shinoda Aya (OC), Kuramae Noboru (OC), Ramon, Jiro, Riki, Megumi
Warnings/Rating: 13+/PG-13
Prompt: Table 2, prompt: Full
Summary: Aya has to live with the fact that monsters don't think like humans.
Author's Notes: I'm hoping to use as many of the 25 prompts as I can for one story, and am therefore designating parts as I go along. Any left over prompts will be used as snapshots on Aya's life. Since the characters are Japanese, I've used Japanese name order here. The universe itself belongs to Toei and TV-Asahi, as does the original version of Kuramae Noboru. The universe that Aya slips into is from my "Boxed In" AU.
It had been a good two weeks for Aya, full of quiet days interrupted by Dr. Hamagaki trying the latest treatment on Aya, which was gradual energy drain and then feeding the energy back to her system, and seeing the results. From what Dr. Hamagaki had said, what they really needed was to infuse her with Merman energy, not Fangaire. "You're not a Fandiri," Dr. Hamagaki had said, sounding amused. "You need Merman energy for the full change."
The Fangaire doctor was planning to explain it to her father in the morning, who might or might not take it well. Aya hoped he'd have an objection to the Fangaire using him, so she didn't have to take that step towards living a few centuries.
At least Aya had gotten to go outside. She called Kuramae-san "Noboru" and he called her "Aya". Perhaps because the researchers trusted her so much, he got permission to show her the fence. It was decorative, yet definitely a security fence; Kuramae-san had let her see that she couldn't climb it, the holes being too narrow for her fingers, and how it was bound onto the poles so that Riki-san wouldn't be able to push his way through it. She, in return, promised not to tell the others about the fence. They had such a good time, she'd forgotten to ask him about turning the monitors off in her room.
Which was pretty amazing, given that she'd been interacting with them. Jiro-san was a man of few, but sharp words. His daughter Megumi was nice, and Aya hoped one day to get her out of the research facility too. Riki-san acted like she was a favorite niece; he treated her father like he was a mischievous younger brother.
There could be things far worse than having a Franken like her, she figured, even though she hoped he'd never get out of the facility. He and her father and Jiro-san were all too dangerous, and she understood that as well as the researchers did.
"Aya! Wake up!" her father was off to her left, and was shaking her. She opened her eyes and focused on the clock that had come from her apartment.
"Father, it's midnight, and I need my sleep," she said. "Some of us still do." She closed her eyes, willing him to go away so she could go back to sleep.
"But Jiro said we should all meet in the common room," her father insisted.
"Jiro-san doesn't need sleep either," she muttered. "Do whatever it is without me."
Her father was silent for a minute, and then she felt a arm around her waist, over the covers, and he started tugging her out of bed. Obviously, it was either walk or be dragged there, covers and all.
She reluctantly got out of bed, slipping her facility-provided shoes on, and plodded after him through the corridors into the common room. Not surprisingly, Jiro-san and Riki-san were there, as was Megumi, who looked about as awake as she did. Well, maybe more, since her father had probably woken her up first.
"We're leaving," Jiro-san said once they'd gathered, and she wondered if he realized the common room, like most of the areas they moved about it, was monitored. "Now."
A useless escape attempt. Great. "Leave without me," she said. "I'm not going." She thought of how fast they were going to be caught, and how they needed to be caught, and at least she could slow them down if they insisted on it, though Riki-san behind her was likely capable of carrying her.
"Aya," her father said, pleadingly, while Jiro-san looked annoyed. "We can't stay out here forever, and I need you."
Jiro rolled his eyes, and made a hand movement. She was hit heavily from behind.
The world exploded into darkness.
