To Chihiro's Lab

Chiaki was curious about what Chihiro was making so dragged Chihiro to his Ultimate Lab.

Inside everything has a sci-fi look to it with highly advanced computers, each one putting her gaming laptop to shame.

"Tell me what you're working on." Chiaki said as she sat down on a nearby chair with her eyes glued to Chihiro.

"I've been working on an advanced A.I., a virtual world, a..." Chihiro was about to continue his sentence before Chiaki cut him off.

"A virtual world? Tell me about that." Chiaki said as her eyes lit up. Chihiro giggled at how much interest the girl had.

"Me and a few other Ultimates have been working on a virtual world that can be used to heal trauma. We call it the Neo World Program." Chihiro explained to Chiaki.

"Do you mind if I try it?" Chiaki had always been interested in VR but she never had enough money to try it and from what she had seen, it wasn't worth it yet but a fully virtual world sounded interesting.

Chihiro paused. 'We do need people to test it out to see if it is completely safe it should be fine. But what would Yasuke and Miaya think?' Chihiro thought about his two co-creators, Miaya always wanted the Neo World Program to be finished as soon as possible and Yasuke doesn't really care about testers as long as they don't break anything.

"Sure you can, we need people to test it." Chihiro said as he walked over to another part of the room.

"What do I do?" Chiaki said as she followed Chihiro to a pod filled with a green fluid.

"You need to get in this but first you have to take your clothes off. If you don't the liquid will... Hey!" Chihiro explained to Chiaki before turning to see that she had already started to strip naked, the top half of her body was completely naked before she quickly pulled down her skirt and panties. She was completely naked in front of Chihiro who was frozen in embarrassment as he stood there and stared at her.

"Why are you stripping now?" Chihiro said as he turned away from her. He was going to let Chiaki get naked behind the curtains that were set up around the pod.

"Does it matter? We're both girls and there're no guys here." Chiaki said as she handed Chihiro her clothes. Despite her intentions, what she said made it feel like she had just shot him with her words. Chihiro felt bad like he was taking advantage of her by not telling her that he was a guy.

Chiaki opened the pod and laid in the fluid while Chihiro pulled the curtain closed so nobody could see her before he went to his computer and activated the Neo World Program. Chiaki's conscious was taken to the virtual world.
