"I'm sorry Ichika, but this is for your own good"
The man with black hair wearing a lab coat who looked like he was in his thirty's said as he injected a syringe into Ichika's arm who was strapped to a chair. They were in a room which was circular in shape with all types of holograms of metal suits, DNA structures and the universe floating around. In the room including Ichika and the black haired man were four teenagers and a girl child having pink hair who was at the same age as Ichika strapped to another chair. All of them present had bruises and minor wounds in various places, but only the small girl in that room had blood in her hands which was not hers. The small girl had been so terrified that she had almost stop breathing.
They were in one of the man's research centre on a remote island just a few meters away from the mainland. The island belonged to his company but he and his friend were the only one's allowed access to the island.
Then the man went to the girl and injected another syringe into her hand also. After that both Ichika and the girl started feeling dizzy.
"You two are going to play a very important role in mankind's history" the man said.
Ichika looked at the small girl who in turn gave him back a smile which seemed to say everything was going to be alright.
"I'm sorry…... I'm sorry…." Ichika said as tears started to swell in his eyes. Then suddenly everything went black for Ichika and he went into a deep sleep.
"As for the four of you….."the man said as he looked at the other four who were present in the room.
There was a boy with blonde hair and blue eyes, a girl with black hair and a katana around her waist, a purple haired girl with bunny ears and a brown short haired girl.
"Tsutsugami Gai, Orimura Chifuyu, Shinonono Tabane and Kazakiri Haruka. I'm not ordering you or anything this is just a request from me" then he bowed down in front of the four and said "please take care of these two until the right time comes".
"Papa you don't have to do that."
The one who said that was Chifuyu as she ran and hugged him.
"I'm sorry that this had to happen to you and your brother Chifuyu."
"Orimura Anzai-san, we will act according to the plan but what if he could not stop it" asked Gai.
"Then everything will come to an end."
Then Anzai clicked his hands and a screen came in front of him, he inputted something into one of the holographic keyboards and then went to the centre of the room. A small part of the floor came up and from the uplifted portion took out two small cubes. He passed one to Haruka and the other to Tabane.
"Haruka, the one I gave you has all the info about the king's and queen's power. Tabane, the one I gave you has all the basic structural details about the infinite stratos suit"
He then went again to the uplifted part of the floor and took out two bright spheres. He then gave those two spheres to Tabane
"Here are the two cores, when the time is right prepare two suits for Ichika and Inori"
Tabane then widened her eyes and asked, "Are you sure about giving me these two cores sensei?"
"I have faith in all of you."
Suddenly an alarm went off and a screen popped up showing men with guns trying to break down a heavily guarded door.
"Damn it, they are already here".
He clicked his hands twice and then all the holograms disappeared. He then went to his workstation and pressed a few buttons. Suddenly a swirling vortex appeared in the room and a countdown timer with 1 minute in its display started its countdown.
"All four of you take Ichika, Inori and get into the vortex it will take you to a safe place. I'll delay them."
"NO. I'M NOT LEAVING YOU HERE", Chifuyu screamed. But the other three understood the situation and held her back.
"Gai, protect all of them with your life."
Gai gave him a nod and picked up the struggling Chifuyu, whereas Tabane and Haruka picked up Ichika and Inori.
"NOOOOOOOOOOO….."
"Stay strong Chifuyu, stay strong for your brother."
With that all of them except Anzai jumped into the vortex which closed behind them. Suddenly a part of the wall blasted and from outside lots of guards and followed by a man with short grey hair walked in.
"Of all the places to run why the hell did you chose the most obvious place that could be easily found out?"
"I wasn't running away from you Ouma"
"Where is my daughter Inori, Anzai?"
Then the guy called Ouma glanced over at the clock and said with a small grin on his face "Ah, I see, you did very well Anzai but Daa'th will not sleep until the prophecy is fulfilled, you may try to postpone it but the end is inevitable."
The timer reached zero and the whole building exploded into rubble.
"GAH!"
Sitting upon her futon, Chifuyu breathed heavily. She looked around her room which was assigned to her in the IS academy.
The dreams are coming more frequent nowadays.
Chifuyu wiped off the cold sweat on her head and saw the clock. It was 2:00 am.
She took out a locket from one of the drawers and opened it. Inside was a photo of her, her brother and her father. Their mother had died as soon as she gave birth to Ichika.
Stay strong Chifuyu, stay strong for your brother.
Her father's words resounded deeply inside her. She quickly glanced over the calendar and gave a deep sigh. "It's almost time isn't it" she said to herself.
The date was September 26th.
