A Dynamic Duo

It was this one mission Julia was assigned where her life would change forever.

Julia Chang, an intelligent 18 year old girl, had recently won the King of Iron Fist Tournament and returned to her original workplace, G Corporation. The scientists there had recently built a teleportation device. She happened to be the first to give it a try, and it was successful. Her co-worker Lee Chaolan has been sending her to certain areas of the world for samples of certain objects or data on certain creatures, entering different tournaments, and for her own desires to explore. To be honest she really enjoyed my time going through the machine. Now Julia has got about a week to work here until she goes on vacation, but she had to stop her research because the scientists called her in. "Great. Another easy mission", Julia said to herself sarcastically. She managed to get to the machine and Lee told Julia about how the next mission will be in space and that with a partner she must investigate and enter a tournament being held at the Court of Azimuth on a planet called Fastoon. Julia asked, "Wait a second. Where is my partner?" Lee responded, "Your partner is in a galaxy far from ours. He is known as General Alister Azimuth and he is of a species called Lombaxes." Julia's eyes went huge from hearing the word Lombax. Then she excitedly said, "Lombaxes are one of my favorite creatures to study!" Julia, now feeling prepared, is ready to leave. Luckily the scientists administered a vaccination to her that can allow her to breathe in space. Already prepared with a silver handgun on a leg holster, gray MPS on a secret holster on her top, and whatnot she stepped through the teleportation portal knowing little about what could happen to her.

Twenty minutes later…

When Julia got out of the teleporter, she found herself on a ledge of a desert-like planet with a lot of mountains and small amount of plant life. She noticed a sign that said, "Welcome to Monolith Fields, Planet Torren IV." Julia took a brief look around and said, "At least I know I'm not on Earth. How am I supposed to find the General on a planet like this?" Finally noticing how humid the weather was outside she noticed a hideout about 250 feet northeast of her on a hilltop. Getting an idea she said with hope, "Maybe he could be in there. It is after all a good place to start." Without any other words, Julia decided to run over there. It's a good thing she wore the perfect clothing for this weather. Julia had on a light tan sleeveless tribal top with a metal armband, skirt, and gloves. She also wore a purple and yellow zigzagged headband with her hair in two mid-lengthed braids plus curled-in bangs. Lastly she had on long white socks and dark blue/light blue boots with two tiny pink hearts on them. As fast as she is, Julia made it to the hideout with haste. As she closed the door and locked it she looked around the room and didn't see the general but she saw a lot of papers that almost look like blueprints. "Wow the person lives here must really be busy." Julia said walked around the room and noticed a computer with files. Julia curiously walked over to the computer and browsed the pictures. She kept looking through the pictures until she saw what looked like the forest she dreamed of.

Flashback…

Dr. Abel: How would you like to join us in our research?

Julia: This information can destroy all of mankind!

Dr. Abel: Stop! Don't cancel the program! Do you want to ruin your dreams of reforestation?

Julia: That's a chance I'll have to take. (presses button)

Dr. Abel: No! You stupid woman! (Pulls out a gun and tries to shoot Julia)

Julia: (Escapes through a window and runs off) Whew!

As Julia reached where the forest was supposed to be, she broke out in tears to see there was no forest only a desert wasteland. Afterwhile she shunned the crying with one goal in mind. "One day, I will reforest this land. I swear it." Julia said with determination.

Back to the present…

Julia had some tears in her eyes when she remembered her dream. But then she snapped out of it when there was shooting outside. "What's going on?" Julia said as she looked over the balcony and saw two robots trying to shoot a figure in a small field. Not wasting another minute, she jumped over the balcony, landed on the ground safely and pulled out her machinegun.

Angrily she said to the robots, "Alright you two! Freeze!" The robots turned and scanned Julia. "Human target acquired! Destroy!" The robots said in a dark tone mechanical tone. With haste Julia quickly shot one of the robots in the head killing it instantly. The other robot started firing and Julia quickly hid behind a large rock. When the robots magazine went empty, Julia utilized this opportunity to shoot the robot's arm leaving it stunned. With quick movement Julia did a hard knee to the body, followed up with an elbow strike to the head, and finished with a charged up reverse roundhouse. The robot got knocked away a few feet and exploded on impact. "That was too easy!" Julia said with confidence.

However her victory was short-lived when a sniper robot from 20 feet away shot Julia in the leg. Julia screamed in agony upon feeling the bullet strike, causing her leg to bleed and fell to the ground and saw the robot was about to shoot again. Her world was turning dark quickly and would pass out if she didn't receive medical attention. Just when she thought it was all over for her she saw a blue bolt of electric energy strike and destroy the sniper robot. Julia turned her head and saw someone. She couldn't identify the figure, but she knew it rescued her. That figure was the Elder Lombax General, Alister Azimuth. The general looked like the other Lombaxes of his kind except his eyes were yellow with reddish-brown irises. Alister's fur was white with dark red markings and appeared far more muscular compared to Julia. His armor exposed his triceps and biceps and was light red and dark brown with an orange symbol on the chestplate. The weapon he held was a double-sided wrench capable of shooting energy blasts and can be used as a devastating close combat weapon. Alister noticed Julia in a helpless state. He picked Julia and held her in his arms. Julia managed to say, "Thank….you" in a faint voice before closing her eyes and resting peacefully knowing she will be alright.
