Shadow Vipers
It was late evening in your private quarters at Kurogane Base. The hum of the city outside was distant, but inside, the atmosphere crackled with fierce rivalry. Shiba Reina and Kujo Ritsuko faced each other, their uniforms still stained from the day’s brutal training.
Reina’s voice was sharp, raw with frustration. “Commander saw me bleeding on the frontlines. I’m the one who knows what he really needs—someone who fights with fire, not just cold strategy.”
Ritsuko’s icy gaze didn’t waver. “You’re blinded by brute force. What the Commander wants isn’t just strength—it’s control. Precision. Someone who thinks before acting.”
Reina scoffed, stepping closer, heat flashing in her eyes. “Please. You think quiet control means anything without passion? Loyalty like mine doesn’t just follow orders—it burns for him.”
Ritsuko’s lips curled in a sly, confident smile. “Passion without discipline is a liability. I keep us alive. I’m the balance he needs.”
Their words hung heavy, charged like a live wire. Both loyal, both stubborn, both convinced they’re the one who can truly satisfy the Commander—not just on the battlefield, but beyond.
