Chapter 1: Home Lost.
"JESUS!" Guyver slammed into the ground of the barren desert. His armor protecting him from the injury a 50 foot drop would cause an ordinary person. After lying on the ground for less than a second, his suit immediately pushed him up, flipping him onto his feet. The eyes on his face and the ones on his head began to dart with rapid succession, the sunlight reflecting off his dark green armor. "Where....Where the hell?"
Guyver surveyed the barren wasteland, neither a hint of water or civilization to be found. His suit's sensors buzzed off in his head, already finishing the process of cleaning the sand off him using its various internal mechanisms. The sensors picked up a signature of life 50 feet away from his location.
"Is it human?" Guyver asked the suit, waiting for a response. A red light flashed before his eyes, giving him the worst possible answer. "Not human. Dammit. A Zoanoid."
A burst of air steamed out of the jets stemming from his face as he knelt down and felt the power of the suit surge to his legs. Faster than humanly possible, he leaped into the air, body as straight as an oak. More than 100 feet he lept up, jumping back toward the target that had registered on his scanners. Guyver landed behind the target, the blades sprouting from his elbows extending to their full lengths.
"MOVE ONE INCH AND I'LL SLICE YOU INTO PIECES, SO HELP ME!" Guyver inched toward the figure. The figure in question was strewn in a full body red leather coat, two guns holstered to his sides, one black and one white, with bristled blonde hair streaming to the sky.
"WHOA WHOA!" The character swung around, his yellow glasses almost swinging off his face. "Hold on Tin man! I can't get into a fight without knowing who I'm fighting."
"Identify yourself." Guyver's scanners continued to study the tall, red coated man. Something odd came to his mind as he began to think. "Funny, this guy's registering as not human, but Zoanoids only register as that when they're not in their human forms."
"Listen buddy. I was right in the middle of picking up a fine young lady who was into my style, and then I find myself in the middle of the desert. So how about we talk about why you brought me here."
"Brought YOU here? You lying sack of..." Guyver lept toward the figure, causing the figure to immediately spring out of his way in the blink of an eye. "Dodged?? Must be a new kind of zoanoid."
"Dodged? DODGED? I'm Vash the stampede! Of course I dodged, you don't listen to the radio much do ya? Well lets see if we can't give those knives of yours a safe place off of your elbows and onto the ground." Vash reached for his guns and began firing at the blades. Each bullet hit their mark, but each was unable to do anything but bounce off. The firing of the guns did nothing but make Guyver angrier.
"Bullets? Are you new to the Zoanoid regime? Bullets don't cut it with Unit 01." Guyver flew at Vash, making sure that he wouldn't miss again. Inches away from him, Guyver slammed into a large red translucent wall. "What is this?"
"That would be courtesy of me." A woman in a white hood appeared out of thin air between the two combatants. Her coat was lined with red, a wooden sword strapped next to her side, her face hidden underneath the hood, and tattoos stewn on her hands. "My connection with the spiritual world is giving me insight to the fact that we are all very confused and out of place."
"All of us?" Vash questioned as another figure fell next to the woman clad in white. The figure was another woman, wearing what appeared to be a red and black battle suit. Her light green hair was spiked toward the ground, the area around her eyes encompassed in black. Jewels were encrusted into her wrists and she seemed to have almost have a feline aspect to her.
"Sorry boys, can't have this becoming a sausage party can we?" She said, looking at all the members present. "So why don't we skip the fights and introduce one another. I'm Ryoko. This is Tweedle Sazuka."
"TWILIGHT Sazuka." The woman in the white hooded gown snarled angrily.
"Twilight. Right. Got it." Ryoko smiled and looked at Guyver and Vash. "Well, you got names?"
"Name's Vash the stampede. You ladies can just call me Vash, yknow if you want to get a little frisky later." Vash reached for Ryoko's hand as if to kiss it, causing her to wrench back in anger and immediately punch him so hard that he slammed into a nearby sand hill. "Heh. Thats usually the common reaction."
"NOBODY MOVE!" Guyver reached for his chest plates, pulling them out as to reveal two large chambers. "ONE TWITCH AND MY CANNON BLOWS EVERYONE TO ATOMS!"
"Whoa there Iron Man!" Vash yelled, pulling himself out of the sand. "We come in peace remember? No need to go pulling out the big guns."
"Yes there is definetely no need for that." A voice said behind the group. "One must act civilized before royalty after all."
Two figures walked toward them, one sporting a white and green garish suit. He walked with a prim attitude and had a crown on his head made of what appeared to be plant. The figure next to him was wearing a long leather jacket, with a skin tight black suit covering most of her body.
"We've had enough violence for one day, don't you agree." The man said, crossing his arms. "The woman next to me is a woman named Allenbee."
"Ummmm hi." The girl said nervously.
"And my name is...."
"TENCHI!" Ryoko sprung on the man, wrapping her arms around him. "Oh thank God you're here. I thought I had been seperated from you."
"Ryoko? But...you're....dead." Tenchi whispered just loud enough for Ryoko to hear.
"Dead? What are you talking about?"
"I believe I can answer that one kiddies." A large man wearing a suit appeared out of thin air. His bald head reflected the sun as his feet hit the sand. "You have all been gathered here from your respective universes."
"YOU DON'T MOVE EITHER!" Guyver yelled out, pointing the cannon at the man.
"Please, you couldn't kill me if you wanted to. I'm not even really an actual person, I'm simply a hallucination shared by all of you to explain what you're all doing here." The man waved his hand, causing Guyver's chest plates to immediately retract, covering the cannon.
"What the hell?"
"Oh please, I don't have to buy into this crap." Vash said, walking away from the group.
"Very well Vash. I guess we'll start off with explaining your past to the group. Ladies and gentlemen meet Vash the Stampede. Vash was born as part of the SEEDs program run by a woman named Rem Saverum. He is what is known as a plant in his respective universe."
"How....How did you know that? No one knows that." Vash said, stammering and turning back to the man. "HOW?"
"Vash here had a twin brother named Knives who, right after killing everyone Vash ever knew and trying to kill the remaining human population of the crash landed people on the barren planet he was now inhabiting, was killed by Vash with the gun he had given to his brother."
"It...It was an accident. I never meant to kill Knives. He...he was going to kill them all...I couldn't let him." Vash fingered the black and white guns on his sides, remembering that horrible event in his life.
"Hey leave the guy alone!" Allenbee cried out, pulling herself back as quickly as she had yelled.
"Well Allenbee, we can start with your past next. You were a respectable Gundam fighter in your universe, a sport which involved the fighting of giant robots if you can believe it. You went a little off the deep end when you're boyfriend died in a fight with the Dark Gundam. You were able to defeat the Dark Gundam, but after that you were blamed for the destruction the Dark Gundam's defeat caused. When it exploded it took out the nearest city. I seem to forget your boyfriend's name though."
"His name..." Allenbee held back her tears. "His name was Domon."
"Yes thats it. Can't believe I forgot that. Sorry to bring back nasty memories."
"This situation is odd indeed." Sazuka said.
"With Sazuka here, she used to be a contract killer. Killed people at twilight, hence the name. She found her way with a band of rag tag travelers who drove a space ship called the Outlaw Star. On one of their adventures, they came into contact with the Galatic Leyline. The person who was to reach the Leyline first would get whatever they desired, Sazuka here was the lucky girl. She wished for the power to save her friends and avenge her slain family at the hand of the Tao pirates. In an ironic twist of fate, the leyline granted her the power of the Tao itself, the very power she despised. She used this power to rip apart the Tao pirates, but in doing so was rejected by her friends and was drawn back into the life of a hired assasin."
"I don't know how this involves me." Guyver said, looking at the saddened Sazuka, struggling with her past.
"Ah Guyver, you probably have the most tragic life of all the bunch. You came upon an alien lifeform that happened to be an organism that caused the user of said lifeform to spawn a suit of armor. You're granting of this armor caused the eye of the Kronos organization to fall upon you, who happened to be made up of monster like creatures called Zoanoids. Kronos had many attempts to take back what they thought should have been their bio booster armor, but always failed. However, when the UN heard of Kronos of Japan's activities, they thought of them as a worldwide threat that would one day destroy every human man, woman, and child on the face of the planet. So, with the backing of various nations, an all out nuclear strike was laid upon Tokyo, destroying not only Kronos but everyone you ever knew or cared about. Despite the fact that I'm only a hallucination, I am sorry for your loss."
"Shut up." Guyver snarled, turning his back to the man, feeling that if he were able to shed a tear through the suit, he would.
"Well, anyway, next on the list is little miss Ryoko." The man pointed to Ryoko.
"Give me what you got." Ryoko said, standing next to Tenchi, her arms still wrapped around him.
"Ryoko was a demon locked in the Mizaki shrine of an alternate version of Tenchi over there." The man pointed to Tenchi, causing Ryoko to have a strange look on her face and quickly remove her hands. "She was eventually let loose by Tenchi's curiosity and found that she was in love with the dumb kid. The romance never got off the ground as Ryoko kept getting back into her criminal life. She spanned the universe, visting Tenchi every once in awhile, showing affection for him when he showed none. However, her attention kept swaying to her crimes, never wishing to live on the world of Earth, causing her relationship with Tenchi to be that of 'just friends' which they were both happy with. Losing what she had thought to be the relationship of her life, she became the number one criminal of the universe but was still able to keep her chipper and downright likeable personality."
"Bite me." Ryoko spat at the man, the spit itself flying past his head.
"Can't say I approve of that."
"She's not....my Ryoko?" Tenchi questioned.
"No. Your Ryoko died in the war against Kagato. Tenchi here lived a life very much like that of Ryoko's Tenchi, that is until Kagato came. In his wrath, Kagato destroyed the Earth and most everyone Tenchi knew, Ryoko included. Only Tenchi and the princess Ayeka survived the war against Kagato and were able to use the remainder of the Earth's energy to bring him down. Tenchi then found solace with Ayeka and took his place as Prince of Jurai."
"PRINCE OF JURAI?" Ryoko yelled out at Tenchi, causing the boy to leap up in the air in a fright.
"Yes that's right." The man said smiling. "Both him and Ayeka are going to be the rulers of Jurai, yknow considering they're married and all."
"MARRIED?????" Ryoko nearly took Tnechi's head off as she flung him to the ground.
"Hey hey! You're not even my Ryoko! Besides I thought you and me...errr him were just friends."
"YEA BUT I HATE AYEKA MORE THAN LIFE ITSELF! If she weren't a tyrannical bitch bent on bringing the world to the brink of destruction in my universe, I would be worried for Tenchi's relationship status." Ryoko walked away from him, Tenchi nursing his injured neck.
"All right people. To make things quick, I'm called the Time broker and the deal is this. You have been pulled out of your respective timeflows because each one of your universes is going haywire due to time changes in other timelines. You need to work together and correct these mistakes. If you do not, these events will cause bad changes in each one of your pasts."
"Such as?" Vash said, stomping his foot.
"Well Vash, Knives will be the one who had killed you, not vice versa. In Tenchi's timeline, Kagato absorbs the Earth energy you throw at him and uses it to kill you and take over the universe. With Ryoko, the galactic police after her will capture her and sentence her to death for her crimes. Sazuka will be overwhelmed by her newly gained magical abilities and will find herself in the position of leader of the Tao pirates. Allenbee's timeline will be that the Dark Gundam cells will infect her and cause her to become the very thing that she wanted to destroy, the Dark Gundam itself. Finally, with Guyver, Kronos will have survived the attack by the UN and will eventually turn everyone on the face of the earth into Zoanoids."
The group of misfits stood next to one another in shock, unable to speak or contemplate the situation they were now in.
"Oh it gets better." The Time Broker continued. "On the various missions you do, you will be able to be injured or even killed. There is no telling how many of these missions you will need to do to return to your correct timeline, it may be one or it may be a million. If you are to die or unable to continue, your reality will not be fixed and someone will replace you. To give you information about each mission you will be on, you will be given a Tallus. This device will fill you in on what needs to be done in said temporal location."
"God." Allenbee said, collapsing to the ground.
"I am sorry for this, but it is all necessary. Your first mission starts...well now."
