Chapter 0: Back in Time

Well i guess i should record a daily log on my visophone so if i die in my quest for the justice that someone may potentially take up my cause. Let's get up to date my name is ace buster an ex guardian.

Younger brother to the guardian hero Jack buster or the one of Knight of Justice the man that saved the entire the Gurhal system 3 years ago with a cast named Vivienne.

Well… More like a super cast she could do all sorts of crazy stuff, like this one time on my birthday she hacked into the cafeteria mainframe and...well let's not get off topic.

Unbenounced to Vivienne she was sleeper spy to a band of remnant illuminus and one of leader leaders Hulga who was basically the queen of the seed at the time… long story. so Vivienne (who was captured by hulga at the time) hacked into another cast named Lou and warned us about the incoming attack of the seed.

So secretly my bro and Lou who was being controlled by Vivienne went to the current seed hive.

I tried go as well but my bro said " it's too dangerous stay here and wait" Then he knocked me and put me in my bed.

When i woke up i went into the main hall and saw my bro the Lou and Vivienne were back and all ok i was happy then shocked as i saw my bro and Vivienne in handcuffs.

Knowing what would was gonna happen next i ran ahead of them and snuck into the conference room and hid above the ceiling tiles.

Vivienne explained the situation to the guardian higher up but to no avail.

They both were discharged on the spot. I held in my anger as did my brother but Vivienne try and begged them to reconsider.

She even tried to take all the blame for herself and asked that only she be punished.

At that moment on of the public response director named Robert spoke up

" ah shut up why don't yah you should be grateful. at first we were gonna dismantle you sweetheart for high treason and kidnaping ,and have jacky boy here arrested for abetting a criminal and going renegade but Nav and the president fought tooth and nail to just discharge you"

at the moment i nearly jump at that pr bastard but my brother said coldly

" well you just dodged a bullet there because if you hurt Vivi for saving your sorry excuse for a life i would have made sure to beat you down to a bloody pulp then shoot your head off"

i watched as the Robert walked back in fear for his life while staring into my brother cold eyes. Nav spoke up to relieve the tension

"well let's not prolong this….hand in your gardian ld card to front desk you have midnight tomorrow to leave the premises and .."

then my bro put his arm around Vivienne and started to walk away with her and said come on Vivi

"let's go don't worry Nav i know the rest i memorized the guardian handbook"

Vivienne looked so sad and lifeless she had grown so much and to see her like this if she could cry she would balling right now.

. My bro was silent as he walked out the door. it was his dream to become a guardian and help people and save lives.

I then i snuck out then ran to our house. I ran through the door and saw my bro packing his stuff with Vivienne behind him she was hacking into something.

I did not know what to say then my bro said

" you know if your gonna hid you should at least try to close the ceiling tile you jumped into better"

i stood there surprised then i said

"so what we are gonna do now why are you packing where are we going?"

Then my bro answered

" Well me and Vivi were gonna go hunt down the rest of the illuminus "

then Vivienne said as well

" yes they are still a threat to the system and they need to be stopped don't worry we used all of our savings to pay off the house and i hacked your name on the deed "

i was angry and shouted

" WHY ARE YOU GUYS SO STUPID"

i started to cry and said " and now you're both gonna leave me alone again and go off to save everybody am i just a burden to you both like everyone says "

then vivienne ran up and hugged me she said

"NO you're my friend we never thought of you as a burden"

My bro then walked up to me and said

" i need you to stay here besides you got your first partner now what's her name again it's rebeca right you'll need to show her the ropes and keep her safe right"

then i nodded silently Vivienne also said

" don't worry about us getting fired i just finished uploading all of the key events leading up to our final battle with hulga and the aftermath including our termination to every information center in the system so that the people know the truth. Smiling my brother let out a laugh and said " ah that's our Vivi always make the best out any situation."

he then turned to be and said

"be a better guardian than i was."

then they both got up and walked out the door. that was the last time i saw my bro and Vivienne. Due to Vivienne little stunt the guardians official report was that due to fear the she may be hacked into by remnant illuminus members that she was terminated and my bro for ignoring an order from a high ranking officer.

they went off the grid then went into history as the heros that saved the system and got the name knights of justice. My guess is that they're both still looking for remnant illuminus groups.

Well that was 3 years ago i was a small 15 year old boy now i am a strong 6 foot 3 (190 cm) and 220(100kg) 18 year old mussel man with i've got dark brown skin with scruffy white hair .

I left the guardians 2 years after my bro did due to reason i do not want to get into now. but now i'm a freelance mercenary I have been investigating the illuminus for the past year now as well as exposing any corrupt clients i may come across.

i start to put on standard weapons i use for battle on my weapon pallet and photon switcher. Mostly A class weapons like claw,pistol, rifle, twin sabers , saber, shield and S class sword zamba. Lastly favorite knuckles the S class Crazy Galactis a gift from my dad with im pretty sure are the best knuckles ever made.

I made sure to put on my A class shield weaves and modules. Now my leads have lead me to this relic site i don't really know what i will find their but it's my first solid lead in weeks now my

in this file i put all of my research and information take it to the locations i listed in the folder below.

Chapter 1 : Another one bites the dust

(Ace on his hover bike wearing a cast's helmet with a blue rectangle visor. rides up to the entrance to a relic site .)

Ace: Finally im here (Ace gets off his hover bike taking off his helmet) I hope this in not just a big dead end ( ace then puts on his helmet and puts bike are put away in his neuro linker) this should hide my identity( ace then runs into the Relic site)

-An hour later in the relic site which is now crowded with people-

Ace: ( ace looks around the room) hmm nothing out of the ordinary so far (then a male cast with black armor and a V shaper visor was up to Ace)

Cast Mercenary:ah a fellow cast a rare site in a place like this

Ace: looks like my disguise is working good thing i brought my over coat and metal gloves they make me look like a cast even though i am human yeah big turn out

Cast Mercenary: This site must have big shot sponsor right. to hire so many people a lot of money to be made

Ace: yeah gotta pay them bills.. even though i came here because i heard this site may be a hideout for remnant illuminus members and snuck in

Cast Mercenary: so you look like a mercenary yourself what company are you with

Ace: im freelance.

Cast Mercenary: well i'm impressed.. Since this place was just discovered and most of it has not been explored only the best were hired for this mission. Only low A Ranks and higher here

Ace: im grateful for that i don't want anybody used as a lab rat and with so many people here if the illuminus are here they won't make a move.(they both hear a girl shouting in the distance)

Cast Mercenary: This is no place for children and i wager she is no Mercenary

Loud Girl:[whining voice] ugh can't we just go home ( the girl is talk to an older looking beast) this is a relic site a relic site do you hear me?! Come on you can't just make me stay here

Older beast: hey remind me why i pay you again.. look it's safe here its a new unexplored relic site nothings here it's easy money. just stay here ill go find some work for you. Stay put (he points to the ground) don't go getting lost ( he then walks away)

Cast Mercenary:( the cast mercenary looks ahead and sees some other mercenary going further into the site) ahhh looks like some people just can't wait. I am gonna make sure they don't get into any trouble maybe i'll see you again some time( the cast mercenary then runs ahead into the relic site)

Ace:(ace looks over to see the girl that was whining earlier on the ground holding her head then a large quake happens in the relic site) what's going on ( then ace notices that the doors are closing) crap ( ace sees out the corner of his eye a person dressed in a illuminus cult uniform with a hood)what! a shocked expression shows up on ace's face)

Random Mercenary: hey everyone the doors are closing hurry up ( people start running towards the door then the Illuminus member walks further into the relic site)

Ace:[shouting voice] No you're not getting away from me ILLUMINUS! ( ace struggles because all the people pushing against him eventually he breaks free and breaks into a sprint after the illuminus member ) got you now (ace reaches out to grab the hooded illuminus member)

Hooded illuminus member: ( turning around then he points at ace) [distorted voice] protect the Sun Queen and her vessel ( he then fades away into bundle of photon particles just as ace touches him)

Ace: [confused voice] what sun queen? (ace clenches his tightly fist) [aggravated voice] more questions and no answer….(ace sighs) [happy voice ] well no matter i just gotta search the rest of this place (ace then hears banging on the door behind him) huh?( he notices that the loud girl a bang on the door)

Loud Girl: hey open up ! Let me out! can you even hear me!?( after giving a depressed look she then sighs) i just want to go home...

Ace:i should take to this girl she seems pretty upset maybe i can cheer her up (ace then walks over to the girl ) ugh what should say.. hey umm… a the relic site looks pretty cool all blue and shiny crap is that all i thought up why am i so bad when talking to girls

Loud Girl: wha?... well i guess i am not the only one stuck here..do you know what happened

Ace: well the doors closed, were trapped, here your were loud

Loud girl: well i could have guessed that ( she breaks out a small smile)

Ace: well anyway we need to go further inside and find us a way out

Loud girl: [surprised voice] wha! are you crazy do you know how dumb that sounds

Ace: beats staying here waiting to be eaten by whatever lurks in here.

Lound girl: ugh fine .. hey i never got your name what is it? I am Emilia Percival

Ace: Ace Buster…. You idiot why did you use your real name you're supposed to be off the grid your mercenary name Rex Hound last time this happened i had to run off plant to avoid the police !

Emilia: ace buster hmm .. [shocked voice] that's the name of that crazy guardian hyper photon user that killed 3000 people in that terrorist attack on Parum. He even killed one of his partners and the other was hospitalized because they caught him in the act. good thing they got the whole thing on a surveillance camera or he would still be a guardian probably

Ace: [sad like voice]…. man the more i hear that the worst the feeling gets ...i don't suppose she will believe me when i say i did not do it. ima have to leave this planet now being on the run sucks

Emilia: but that can't be you your a cast.. hey don't joke like people are still pretty upset

Ace:relieved voice great she doesn't know me.. right ..sorry well lets go im rex hound ( they both start to walk into the site)

Emilia: well let me at least take point ( emilia runs ahead of ace) hurry up

Ace buster: hey its dangerous wait up( ace runs after her)

Emelia

-5 minutes later-

Emilia:[annoyed voice](emilia drags her arm down and looks up while walking) ughhhhh this place is like a maze

Ace: yeah i heard stories of people getting lost in these sites for days

emilia:[peeved voice] i can't believe my boss sent me to this place because he thought i was lazy.. im not even a good fighter even though i belong to a strong mercenary group i am only a LV 25 C Rank

Ace: [sarcastic voice] the nerve of that guy [peeved voice] second we get out of here

Emilia: i know right finally someone agrees with me.. any way with your help i can get out of here

Ace: what.( Just then two evil sharks appear from around the corner and run swords us but emila looking at the ceiling does not notice ) loudly shouting EMILIA LOOK AHEAD OF YOU ( Emila looks ahead is is caught off guard)

Emilia:scared and surprised voice whaaa!( in a flash of she draws her sword and pistol)

Get.. get back you! ( she tries to slash at the first evil shark but it swipes her saber away with its blade arm and she falls on her butt) in fear and shouting GET.. GET BACK ( she close her eyes and points ter gun the the evil sharks both standing over her with their blade arms about to slash her)

Ace:intensely HEY YOU KNOW ITS RUDE FORCE YOURSELVES ON A LADY (ace runs towards the sharks then in a photon flash switches to his his knuckles the crazy galactics and punches bout evil sharks crushing their faces in and knocking them back into the wall killing them) calm and softly are you ok ( ace then put his weapons away and puts his hand towards emilia as an offer to help her up)

Emilia: (emilia face turns red in embarrassment) im fine (she gets up on her own and dust herself off ) thanks

Ace: Hey !( ace walks up to emilia)

emilia: well what up why are you looking at me

Ace..[serious voice]? You could get killed be more attentive !

Emilia: [aggravated voice]. well its not my fault [imitating her boss's voice] don't worry about it's just an exploration there are no Seed here and just stick close to the stronger people their easy money[sad voice]so dont yell at me i just want to go home

Ace:(ace sighs) hey don't worry ill get you home( ace walks over and picks up emilia saber and then hands it to her) hey sorry for snapping

Emilia: (emilia smiles)No you're right i need to be more careful [ shrewdly but you can pay me back by getting me out of here

Ace: ( ace lets out a smile)Yes ma'am.. but to be safe just stay behind me and use that pistol for cover fire for me

Emilia: come to think of it have any relic site gone active while the seeds were not attacking?hard to say but it would explain the disturbance observed in the magnetic field. but in any case the seed were driven out 3 years ago the guardians, ethan waber and the two knights of justice. but that did not stop this place from activating. Must be some master program and trigger ..or something like that

Ace you must be an expert

Emilia: no its pretty common knowledge .. hey anyone could have told you that so don't teses teses me by pretending to listen

Ace: no i do believe you

Emilia surprised really.. ( emilia face turns a little red in embarrassment) well anyway let's keep on going

-about 15 minutes later ace and emilia are fighting 4 badira -

Emilia: HA! ( Emilia shots a power shoot out pistol hitting a bid killing it)excited voice ha i got one

Ace:struggling voice yeah.. thats cool( Ace with his twin sabers dogges the jumping attacks by the other 3 badira s) really cool (ace the runs at and slashes the two badira killing them) two down and…( the last badira rushes at ace) you know it's rude to cut people off( ace then switches to his claw and pistol ) he shoots the badira making a hole where its top half use to be) Too easy

emilia: show off

Ace: joking voice. i could just leave
Emilia: : oh what will i do.. well i won't have to hear your bad one lines

Ace: hey i think their cool( they both laugh as they walk into the next room) [surprised voice] what in the world ( ace sees a room filled with 20 evil sharks and about 10 badira)

Emilia:[surprised voice] bad turn i told you to go left( she turns around towards the door but it's locked) Wha! iIT LOCKED!

Ace it's a Trap room i can even see the switch to open the door on the other side of the room but….( ace look around and see that theses no other way out of the room) crap i have to use it.

Emilia:[surprised and somewhat fearfully voice] i remember i know what that name was…..with his emerald explosions and ruthless monstrous strength he got the name berserker and with his threatening presence and hair and eyes of white he got the name Wolf. (emilia gulps)surprised and somewhat fearfully voiceAce Buster the Berserker Wolf the one who destroyed 1000 B Rank seed single handedly

Ace: [serious voice]tch.. better end this(ace draws his rifle) come( all the seed rush at him at once ace then points his rifle at the sky) serious voice with vigor Special Move Hell's Rain( Ace shoots A massive green photon bullet in the air , it bursts into small bullets that rained on the horde below him cause many green explosion killing them all) [tired voice] Ha! perfect(ace then falls on his butt catching his breath) no problem!(ace puts his helmet back on using his neuro linker)

emilia:[shocked voice] Now's my chance( she then runs over press the switch on the other side of the room then runs over to ace to him and points her pistol at him with her saber in the other hand ) so your... berserker wolf the ex-guardian that killed all those people
