Chapter 1
A tall figure stood on the rock formation staring out into the blackness. He was nearly alone, the only companion stood beside him. Shadow turned in a questioning way, as if to ask: why are we here? The answer came: "To get away from it all, and to figure out how we are going to make flyheight and his fan club loose their nerve so he loses to me in a zoid battle." Raven looked at his organoid partner "however before we do that I think a rest is in order." Shadow nodded in agreement and they both climbed down the rocky path around the feature and entered a cave in the side. Hundreds of years of the wind blasting at this part of the rock had formed this alcove which was surprisingly sheltered. It was here they spent the night. When dawn came Raven awoke to a desolate scene, the desert in which they were travelling was bare and lifeless, except around the water points set up to aid travellers. He cooked his own breakfast and ate it silently. A minor tremor shook the ground waking Shadow. But today the organoid seemed different, more alert and more on edge. A girl screams below them and then comes into view, neither Raven nor Shadow can see her that well, and their vision is impaired even more as a shot nearly hits the girl sending up a cloud of smoke. When the smoke clears the girl is unconscious on the ground. Raven decides to see what is happening from the ground and starts to climb down. And then it comes into his line of sight.
Raven was staring at a gun. The gun was positioned on top of a command wolf that looked oddly familiar. Also, it was pointing at him. As the gun fired he felt himself being lifted off the ground, when the lifting stopped he was by the geno breaker. He notices Shadow standing near by, looking at the command wolf. Raven jumped into the cockpit of the geno breaker and turned to fight. It was gone. Had it been there? Yes the damage was there as was the girl. Shadow flew into the air and then back down, shaking his head to indicate that the wolf was nowhere to be seen. Raven got out of the cockpit, expecting a shot to come from no where, but none came. He looked at the girl and wondered why she had been running from the zoid in the first place. He called for Shadow and the organoid, as always, came. Raven managed to lift the girl onto Shadow's back before the organoid flew back into the cave. Raven checked that the geno breaker was still hidden and then climbed back into the cave. Somehow Shadow had put the girl on a ledge now was clearly unsure what to do. The girl was pale, her skin was nearly white, yet she did not look ill. Her hair was brown and wavy, falling to her chest. She was wearing black combat trousers, a dark grey halter top, a black jacket and high heeled boots. Across her forehead she wore a black headband. She was slim but not unnaturally so. Raven guessed that she was 18, but couldn't be sure. Somehow she looked out of place, as if she was older than she seemed. Something was missing.
As the sun began to set and dusk started to claim the desert, she began to stir. When she finally did wake up, Raven saw what had been missing; her eyes. They were the same colour as his, but not human.
Chapter 2
The girl looked around, obviously confused, trying to make sense of her surroundings. "What happened, where am I?" She murmured. "You sure you wanna know the answer to that just yet?" Raven asked back. "What do you mean? I don't understand" "Alright" Raven gave in and told her "This is the short version so I may seem vague. I've been here for a couple of days. This morning I heard someone scream and then I saw you. Then someone shot at you and knocked you out. I started climbing to the ground to get a better look when they shot at me too. Luckily I had some help from Shadow, who seems to be a bit shy at the moment" he said looking around "Well I was able to reach my zoid but when I got into the cockpit and turned round this other person was gone. Shadow and I managed to get you in here and nothing else has happened since. The only notable event was you waking up. So, why was that person after you?" The girl answered quietly "I don't know, I'm not sure how much of what I can tell you, you will understand." I've dealt with people from your race before, I may understand more than you thought" Raven interrupted. "Well here goes. My name is Jeni; I've been awake for about a month. I woke up near a city and there were celebrations going on, but I'm not sure what they were about. I left the city and just wandered for a week. Then I came across the ruins of a city but I could not go in because . . . because I just felt something bad had just been destroyed but the evil still lingered. I soon heard things and I know people like you call people like me Ancient Zoidians. We all have special gifts. I can sense time, not just the present though. I can sense the past and predict the future, but not too well. All I can do is say whether the future is good bad or in between. After another two week I found another one liked me. Her name is Marina, she has an organoid called Chimera, but she vanished yesterday; then all this happened." "Oh, and I thought the last month was rough on me, it was mainly just finding a place to get away from it all" "Get away from whet?" Asked Jeni.
The planet had changed a lot since Marina had gone into the pod, and she didn't like the changes. "If only that boy hadn't shown up, the brat would be dead by now, you do realize that Chimera?" The golden organoid growled in agreement Marina continued "He said his plan would be complete when I woke up, but someone had to ruin them, I wonder, did that boy have anything to do with it. Did he kill my brother or help out in any way? The Zoid looked to be powerful, too powerful for me." The red haired Zoidian looked up at the command wolf that Chimera had resurrected, the core had been nearly destroyed but still it was nothing to Chimera. Her organoid had similar abilities to her brother's organoid but, Chimera was far more powerful than Ambient had been. Marina was sitting in a valley, yet she was completely unaware that she was being watched. Van, Fiona and Thomas were watching her with interest. "She looks like a Zoidian to me." said Thomas "Yeah" said Van "She also looks like one who tried to kill everyone as I recall, the only difference between them that I can see is gender." "I wonder if they're related." Asked Fiona. "Well that would certainly be interesting" Van replied. "Interesting?" questioned Thomas "where did that come from?"
Back in the desert Raven had just finished telling Jeni his life story, even if it was a bit biased. "Hard life" Jeni commented "but, how biased was that?" "I was kinda hoping you wouldn't notice." Raven answered "You've not answered my question." "Alright, I was biased but not as biased as it could have been, and no events were made up" moaned Raven Suddenly Shadow popped up from behind a rock and started growling at something below them. Jeni yelped, but raven explained: "That's Shadow" he said pointing to the organoid. "Right, so what's wrong?" Raven peered over the edge almost expecting the wolf to be back, instead something green shot up and threw him to the back of the cave, Shadow soon followed suit. "Stop that Adamante!" yelled Jeni over the din "Listen to me; they're not trying to hurt me!" "So I take it you two know each other" murmured Raven, still dazed from the impact of his body against solid rock. "Adamante is my organoid, albeit extremely protective of me" Jeni said "I'm sorry, she does have a tendency to over react to other people. I didn't mention her at first because her pod was already empty when I woke up and she wasn't there." "Oh, any idea why?" "No, but someone does." replied Jeni looking at Adamante.
Chapter 3
It had been three hours since Marina had been sighted by Fiona, and now Marina decided to move, "Come on Chimera, let's see if my brother left anything for us, if not I think a change of character is in order." She walked to the wolf and climbed in, the golden organoid fused with the zoid and it ran off. "Ow" said Van getting up "we could have picked a more comfortable spot. I mean, getting trashed in a zoid battle is less painful than this." "I hope you're joking?" asked Thomas "I can't think of much that is more painful than getting trashed in a fight." "Consider what I was sitting on then!" moaned Van, pointing to a patch of very sharp and jagged rocks "Come on you two, we have to get back and report on what we saw," called Fiona "Ever since those strange things that Cornel Schubaltz told us about started happening, we've all had orders to report anything strange, and I thing that girl comes under that category." "Yes ma'am" Van and Thomas chorused, then both of them looking rather sheepish. By the time they reached the Gustav Fiona was in the driving seat with Zeke next to her, Van had told Zeke to stay and guard the Gustav and he was surprised that the organoid had listened, Van and Thomas both silently sat behind in the back seats. "So who's going to deliver this report then?" asked Van "Well since you two are currently hopeless at that, I'll do it." answered Fiona Both Van and Thomas went quiet and it seemed that they were redder than normal. The journey back was uneventful, no fights, no freak weather and no flying papayas. By the time they got back to the base, it was dark. Fiona went to write up and deliver the report while Van and Thomas worked on their zoids. After five minutes Van realised that there was nothing for him to do and he went back to his quarters after asking Thomas if he needed help and being told no. As Van returned to his quarters someone ran into him. "Argh, what the . . . Dr D!?" yelled Van "Hello Van" said the old scientist "How are you?" he asked, it seemed to Van that somehow Dr D was unhurt. "Um . . . I'm fine I guess, why were you running?" "I was looking for Lieutenant Schubaltz; do you know where he is?" "He was working on Beek in the hanger when I last saw him." replied Van "Thank you Van, now I've got to dash" "Bye" said van as Dr D ran off towards the hanger, Van laugned quietly to himself, Dr D may be really smart but he still got madder everyday. When Van reached the quarters he shared with Zeke he noticed an envelope pushed under the door. He bent down to pick it up and he felt he was being watched. He picked it up. Then he looked round. The hall was deserted. He returned his attention to the envelope. As he opened it a piece of red paper dropped out. He picked it up and read the writing: "REVENGE"
Chapter 4
It had been three days since Raven had saved Jeni, and for some unknown reason he got on well with her. They stayed in the same place and Jeni told him more about Zoidian life. Shadow and Adamante got on really well and often curled up together when they napped. "I'm getting slightly concerned about Shadow," Raven said one night "He's not himself, I'm not sure why." "I do" replied Jeni "I know how an organoids mind works, they're in love" she finished sounding slightly worried. "What!?" choked Raven "In love; err . . . does this mean that there may be lots of little organoids running round?" "I'm pretty sure the answer is no, I don't think they can do that, I hope" Answered Jeni looking slightly worried "I'll ask Adamante in the morning."
It was midday and Marina did not seem to worry about the heat, in a few minutes it would not matter anyway. She walked into a cave hidden by the trees, but she knew it was there, her brother had used it as a place to plot and scheme, well at least no one else knew it was here, that was how it should have been, she thought, then she noticed the footprints on the floor, one set made by an organoid, the other, she was unsure, but it was a person. A gust of wind blew through the cave, the red dress she was wearing whipped up but she didn't seem to care, she looked around but saw no one. Chimera was sniffing the foot prints, she growled to Marina and Marina replied: "Well that is suprising; I suppose we can live with that." They both walked into the cave and then came to a door, it was open. "So much for security, you first she said to the organoid, I don't know if there's any traps left, and you have a much better chance of surviving than I do." The organoid looked worried but went in anyway. After a few seconds and no noise Marina followed. She looked around and noticed someone was in the room, "So, what went wrong this time? I won't laugh; you don't need to worry about that." The figure stepped out of the shadows and looked at her, "You do know that red really is your colour."
