Welcome to Gaia! ::

The girl muttered in pain as she was dragged through the halls of the rather desolate building. Stow made it a priority to keep her mouth shut until the female locked themselves into a secluded room. Alice was thrown roughing into a chair which she almost screamed out in pain from the impact. However, the girl held her tongue in order to maintain respect. Hannah didn't waste time in being her interrogation about the photo that was confirmed to be hers. She wasn't sure why Mari possessed it either so it would be difficult to give her instructor a straight answer.

"My sister, Mari Wiess gave it to me before she died, and a-," Alice stopped herself from spilling out to much information. Her sister's journal was secretive and should only be kept to herself. "And a few other pieces of paper." The farm girl didn't mind if the woman viewed whatever was on the individual papers. She slipped her hand into her pocket digging out a grand total of three crumbled up scraps of paper. They didn't look like much and were probably more fit for the trash then to be laid onto of a clean wooden desk.

The girl proceeded to unfold the papers revealing illustations done by Mari on each one. The sibling was an exceptional artist and would spend her free time drawing or sparing on the farm. One picture represented the Darwin evolutionary theory with a titan replaced with human that evolved from ape. The other was the creationism theory when abnormal sized beings rained down from the heavens. Alice assumed the men were Nephilims (Giants that are fallen angels or in this case titans) according to Genesis in the Old Testament of the bible. The last picture was silhouettes of several men and woman with a subject number or cereal code on them. Alice new what the first two meant, but the last one was a mystery.

She looked up into Hannah's face answering her last question because she had left the woman hanging. "No one that I know of has a picture like that one, Drill Sergeant." She said simply before looking back at the pictures. She knew it wasn't her place to ask questions, but she had to know who were the people in that picture. She knew Hannah and Sasha, but the others...what happened to them? "What happened to all those soldiers, Drill Sergeant?"

Alice felt like she was running away trying to get some distance from the girl, but it was impossible. She knew Yumi wouldn't stop badgering her until she got what she wanted. Winter's was persistence and did make a good point, but right when she looked back over her shoulder at her, she bumped right into Cole's chest. The farm girl stumbled back, but was able to catch her footing. Now he was involved in this secrecy mess to and she had no choice, but to tell them.

All the blonde wanted was to take a break, however, that wasn't going to happen any time soon. She grabbed Cole and Yumi by the wrists, pulled them back into the classroom shutting the door, and pulling the three illustrations out of her bra. She laid them out neatly on the desk, but keep the black and white photo tucked away. She wiped the perspiration away from her forehead. Even though the classroom wasn't ever large it trapped in heat, but she did her best to ignore it. Alice inhaled deeply before explaining.

"The first picture shouldn't be hard to figure out. It pertains to Darwinism or to put it simply the theory claiming that she originated from apes. As you can see the result of man is replaced by a titan. The next picture is creationism, which means that a creator, God, made the Heavens, earth, man and Hell. The people falling from the Heavens are known as Nephilim or titans if that's what you want to call them. In the bible, the Old Testament Genesis 6:4 states: "There were giants [nephilim] on the earth in those days, and also afterward, when the sons of God came in to the daughters of men and they bore children to them. Those were the mighty men who were of old, men of renown." Alice gave herself a moment to examine the last picture.

"That last one I'm not sure of? I don't even know what the numbers mean or know anyone that could possibly know. That's all I got. Are you two satisfied?"

Once Alice was done explaining, Yumi began interrogated the girl as well. She was exhausted and staring to get a bit irritated from the lack of sleep and nutrition. However, she didn't falter in showing these signs but instead as introvert as possible. Instead of talking she answered Yumi's question with a nod and then gestured for the girl to analysis for the last illustration. By all means, she was glad to let someone else go ahead and do the talking. The teen leaned back against the chalkboard with her arms crossed.

Alice knew the first part for a fact that they were two different theories because she had just finished explaining them. However, her theory sort of sparked a connect between the other two illustrations. Now the question was, how did those people become titans? Were they born with the ability to transform into an unimaginable creature of horror? Were they given a certain substance like medicine or maybe poison to turn them into a titan? Why number them then? Her mind was trying to comprehend all these questions at once and it felt like it was ready to short circuit. Yumi suggested that she should rest while the other two took their remaining test.

The girl didn't reject the idea in fact she quickly agreed to it. She took the pictures and tucked them back in her bra where the sun doesn't shine. Smiling at the two trainees, she exited the room forgetting to say goodbye or wish them good luck. She was sure they would understand by the looks of her demeanor.
