《Different》Chapter 15 - AID

He looked at the ceiling and saw a familiar lamp hanging from it.
["I'm back here again..."]
He had been hospitalized once again after the incident. He looked around his body and spotted bandages all around him. However the question on his mind wasn't how badly his injuries where, but rather how long he had been passed out for this time. A voice spoke out to him from his side.
"Good morning Soro, we have a couple of questions we need to ask you"
A man and a woman in a black suit walked up to him with a piece of paper and pen on their hands. Soro turned to face them with a confused look on his face.
"Who are you ?"
The man grabbed a chair near the bed Soro was laying on and sat down on it.
"My name is Roso and the woman next to me is Tanya. We both work in the Ability Investigation Department also known as AID"
They both reached for their pockets and took out their business cards holding it in front of Soro for him to read.
"I'm sorry I don't think I understand what that is"
They put their business cards away. Roso held both of this hands together.
"You see ever since the outbreak of supernatural abilities the government has issued a group of trained individuals such as us to deal with people who misuse their abilities for crimes such as murder or robbery"
Soro slightly tilted his head.
"I never did any of those things"
"We are aware you did not commit any extreme crime however your school has reported that you used your ability inappropriately in the school premises. We have been told that you harmed several students. Most of them only have minor injuries, however two of them are currently in this hospital being treated after being found with severe fractures on their body. Mako Yutaro and Daichi Sukasa, have you heard of those names before ?"

He could tell he was in a whole new level of trouble. Usually in situations like these where school fights break out, the police and head teacher would be the one taking care of things. However this time was different, the people standing right next to him were most likely in higher authority than an everyday police officer or head teacher. This meant that whatever Soro said at this very moment, could have a big impact on what happens to him later on.
"Never heard of them"
Tanya took a step closer to him as she stared into his left eye. His right was being covered by a new eye pad bandage.
"He is lying"
Soro raised an eyebrow.
Roso looked at her and then looked at Soro once again. He had an unpleasant look on his face as if he was disappointed at Soro's respose.
"Soro, I insist you tell us the truth."
["How does she know I'm lying ? Am I doing something with my body to make it obvious ?"]
Tanya crossed her arms.
"Listen, I have an ability just like you. It allows me to do unimaginable things, one of them is being able to hear what people around me are thinking, so there's really no point in trying to lie"
Roso leaned back on the chair and crossed his legs. He wasn't worried about a single thing, it was as if he had done this kind of thing a million times already.
"I will ask again Soro, do the names I mentioned earlier sound familiar to you ?"
Soro had to answer truthfully. If what Tanya said was true then it's impossible for him to try manipulate his words.
"Yes, they are the people who harassed my sister"
Roso looked at Tanya. She carefully nodded. He then looked at Soro.
"They harassed your sister did you say ?"

"Yes, that's the reason I went up to them in the first place"
"I see..."
He began taking notes down on a piece of paper. There was a cold atmosphere surrounding the room. Everything was under the control of the two people next to him. They were the ones who decide what happens next, and all Soro could do was go along with the flow. Roso placed the pen he was writing with down.
"Alright, we will look into what you just said, however due to the injuries you inflicted upon the students, your head teacher has requested to see you first thing tomorrow morning to discuss your punishment. As for us, we will need to register your ability down on our database so we can understand your threat level."
Soro was speechless.
"I'm sorry what ?"
"We need you to describe your ability to us"
"I cannot do that"
"We insist yo-"
Soro quickly interrupted him before he could finish speaking.
"I don't know what my ability is or what it does"
Roso slowly shaked his head in disappointment.
"As my assistant Tanya stated before, lying to us will be of no use"
Tanya's eyes widened in surprise.
"He is telling the truth"
Roso got up from his seat.
"How could that be ? The report clearly states he used his ability to harm the other students. "
"I don't know, however I can try use my ability to find out"
"Very well then"
Tanya walked up to Soro and faced him.
"Could you show me where you were hit by a revolt arrow ?"
The question she asked him was awfully strange. It's not like he didn't know the answer. It was more that he had no idea what she was planning to do to him.
Still he couldn't give her a fake answer as she would know in an instant. Soro took off the new eye pad dressing the hospital had put on him and opened his right eye.
A light shade of blue surrounded it. Tanya was shocked after seeing his eye being the location where the revolt arrow hit him. She leaned close to his face and stared at his right eye.
"I am now going to use my ability on your right eye, you may be unable to move once I do this, I can assure you it's perfectly normal"
"Okay..."
Both of her eyes which were usually a light shade of grey had turned completely red. Moments later a very thin ray of light connected both of her eyes to his right eye. She stood completely still as she began concentrating. Roso looked at Tanya.
"Well... ? you see anything ?"
Tanya slowly shook her head.
"No, not yet"
A second after she spoke, her eyes widened and began to tremble intensely. Roso could tell something was wrong.
"What's the matter ?"
Tanya did not respond, instead she began heavily breathing in and out as if she had ran several miles. Roso grabbed Tanya by the shoulder.
"Tanya, what is it !?"
A red aura began glowing out of her body slowly burning her skin. She screamed in pain.
"AGHHHHH!!!"
Roso began panicking. He had never seen something like this happen to Tanya before. He put both his hands on her head and pushed her head down so she would no longer stare at Soro's right eye. The ray of light that connected her eyes to Soro's instantly vanished. Moments later blood burst out of her eyes as she fell completely unconscious.
