Special Training (2)

Listening to the rhythmic patter of rain on leaves, Kaworu felt a pang of nostalgia. It reminded him of times long past when he and his fellow warriors would navigate rainy nights and damp forests in heated combat.

Four hundred years had passed, and Kaworu was no longer who he used to be. He was neither a beta nor even truly human anymore. But memories of the distant past were still vivid, carved into the depth of his memory.

The world around him seemed to twist and change. The rain, which had been pouring, had now come to a halt, and somewhere behind the thick layer of stormy clouds, a hidden full moon lay dormant. Suddenly, he wasn't in the midst of a thick jungle. Instead, he found himself in a bustling military camp, wearing a familiar beta combat uniform, a place he once called home.
