Chīsana Takaramono

小さな宝物. Or, chīsana takaramono.

In English, that means “little treasure.”

You may wonder why I’m bringing this up. Well, it has to do with our story. It’s the tale of a rather strange creature. Its species? Nameless, but the creature itself did indeed have a name. And that name was Chīsana Takaramono. The creature was actually created synthetically in a lab, and before it was released, it would spend 30 days confined in a large glass box. This story tells of the results of that experiment...

Week 0 — 準備
About a week before the experiment began, Chīsana Takaramono, or just Chī, was being raised by one of the scientists in the lab. Well, that is until a horrible accident occurred involving a pathogenic sample: 00.09 Ros.

A very small fraction of the lab’s staff believed that the sample wasn’t nearly as dangerous as they first thought. Over time, that fraction began to grow.
