~OOC: First & Third-Person Sample~

Chise woke up as she heard a loud voice blare out over the intercom. It was yet another day in this bleak facade of a mental hospital. She slowly made her way into the cafeteria, bumping into three people and tripping over twice. Her nurse brought over a full breakfast meal complete with two glasses of milk and orange juice, seeing as Chise was incapable of retrieving her own food without having it end up all on the floor.

"Make sure to eat up all of it honey," her nurse said. "You need to get healthier if you want to see your family again." She pressed a new package of pills into Chise's hand before skipping off into the oblivion.

My family... Chise thought while nibbling on a piece of toast. The last time she'd checked her family's bio-readings, they'd seemed healthy and fine. And that was before she and Shuji left the town to start a new life on their own.

Shuji... Small beads of crystal-like tears began to form as she ate, followed by a series of tiny sobs. She missed him so much! Her heart ached in the emptiness where his presence had once been, and his heartbeat wasn't there to soothe her. Oh, how she adored his heart and the little cute sounds it made whenever they were together. It was so unfair that she was forced away from him again, at the very moment when she realized that she wanted to be with Shuji no matter what the cost. After running away from the army, after betraying her officers, after Tetsu-san's death...

Chise dropped her toast and buried her face into her hands, sobbing even more loudly. Life was unfair. Her life was unfair, Shuji's life was unfair, hell, everyone's life was unfair. This whole place was unfair! How could anyone say that life was fair? Was it fair for her to be apart from her boyfriend? Was it fair for her to kill all those people, just because they'd been identified as the enemy? Was it fair for the army to turn her into a weapon of destruction? Was it fair?

"It couldn't be helped," Chise muttered. That was what the higher-ups at the army had said when they turned her into the ultimate weapon. It's not our fault, it couldn't be helped. None of it could. "Shuji, I'm so sorry. I'm sorry for not being strong enough to protect you. I'm sorry, I'm sorry..."

The nurses, who had been so concerned about the amount of Chise's daily intake of food, didn't even notice the half-eaten slice of toast on the floor.



Dear Shuji,

How are you? I'm okay myself. I hope that things are okay over where you are, with the war and everything. I'm sorry for not being there.

I made a couple of new friends today. They both act just like you and Akemi. I'm sorry if this made you mad.

Strange things happen here at night Shuji, like monsters for example. Last night there was this really, big monster that attacked me and my friends. It gave me a huge gash on my arm before I killed it. I'm sorry that I wasn't strong enough to kill it faster.

Shuji, I miss you a lot. I wish I was with you so we could be together.
I'll become stronger.
Very, very strong.

Shuji, I'm sorry.

ooc, application
