METAL DAYS
Life After Death
It was evening, and a boy named Makoto Itto, was at his home to talk to one of his friends, Sekai, about her time about the hospital. She was about to make tea.
Kotonoha Katsura, another of Makoto's friends, was planning to go on a yacht.
Makoto checked his text. It was from Sekai. They were all blank until "Good Riddance". Sekai ran out with a knife and stabed him. She had been angered by how he dated many girls and was very selfish. Sekai then ran out of the room as if she saw the tears of a dead man, or she could let herself be seen as the murderer. Either way Sekai must've felt guilty for what she did. Kotonoha arrived and saw the dead body. She called Sekai on the dead Makoto's phone. Sekai met up and tried to convince Kotohona the was pregnate, but after Kotonoha showed her what was in the bag, she killed her. Kotonoha then set off on her yacht with Makoto's head.
Kotonoha: We're finally alone together, Makoto-kun.
But the end was the only the beginning...
Kimi no Seishu wa Kagayaiteiru ka Hontoo no Jibun o Kateshite wa inai ka Kimi no Jinsei wa Mitasareteiru ka Tippoke na Shirawase ni Dattoshiteinai ka Utyu Zentai yori mo Hirokute Tsukaimono Sore wa Hitori no Ningen no Kokoro Ai ga Hoshikereba Dokai o Sourezu ni Ari no mama no Jibun o Taiyo ni Sarasu no da!
Kotonoha couldn't afford to be seen with a dead man's head, so she set off to an un civilized island where she could could never be seen or heard from again. But than, her father was there. Luckily, he wasn't mad. He got excited to find his daughter with a head. He needed it for his experiment on reviving people as cyborgs.
Kotonoha: Are you sure this is a good idea, poppa?
Professor Katsura: You like this boy, don't you, Koto-chan?
Kotohona: I do. It's just that what you taught me about...defects. I don't want that to to happen to Makoto-kun. And another thing, there's a good chance he'll wonder what happened to him and why.
Professor Katsura: You mean the killer? Why?
Kotonoha: She loved him too much to let him spend time with anyone.
Professor Katsura: Hmm. I understand how you must've felt when this young man spent time with that girl. I'll have to upload his lifeskill and his memories about you. When I do, I'll program the functions for him to be loyal to you and your friends and save lives .
Kotonoha: I may not like the idea of tampering with people's personalities, but at least I can accept this as long as Makoto behaves himself.
So it was they set Makoto's brain on the the skeletal piece of the cyborg before it was completely enclosed by two halves. one body side was blue, and the other was red. Professor Katsura scanned Makoto's head for his DNA and appearane of his human form. Makoto's cyborg form had started nude, so the professor needed to get his old clothes that he once wore when he was the same age and put it on Makoto before he could activate him. Kotonoha stood near the cyborg as her father set him to on. Makoto slowly opened his eyes.
Makoto: Kotonoha?
Professor Katsura: How you feeling, kid?
Makato (moving slowly from his awakening): Who...am I?
Kotonoha: You're Makoto! Remember?
Makoto: Oh...Yes...I remember...my mind was blank the last time. At least...I remember you, Kotonoha.
They were both happy. So was the professor.
At a mysterious tower, head of the board there was Kirihara Gozo. His two secretaries, K & S arrived to report the stock.
Secretary K: Sir, the Washington stock market is up. It's increased to 5 million dollars.
Secretary S: The same's happening in Russia. Japan's stock market will increase. What then, sir?
Gozo: Buy it all. Tell the Chairman at the Ministry of Finance to continue without hesitation.
Secretary S: But sir, this is dangerous.
Gozo: Send the nuclear submarine to the Pacific in search of Professor Katsura's secret lab. As for the tankers, they'll need protection, but if they fail, so be it. I will take on the "Darkness of The Night"!
When his secretaries left, Gozo's world changed...literally. It changed into an evil realm, the Ghost Bank. Gozo turned out to be a troll-like leader of his evil army. The army went enchanting his true name "Neros! Neros! Neros!" The armies were devided into four...The Shield Army led by Saint Coolgin. This army included the Med-fighters Muki-Muki and Fufuchu (they looked alot like humans, but were very brutal); The Monster Army led by their Saint Gellbring; the Armament Army led by Saint Drangor; the Robot Warrior Army led by Balsky.
The enchanting stopped, and Nero began to speak.
Nero: My fellow minions. You have fought many battles and have done well. If the petroleum suppies decrease as the nucluear plant of Japan has gone away, the price of our empire will increase. This will influence the stock market. It will spread chaos all over the world leading to war will result into human extinction. And my empire will make huge profits from selling weapons. And acter the destruction and bloodbath, a time of scarcity will come. But, only the strongest will survive. We cannot be bothered by tears of those mere mortals.
All: Nero!
Nero: The entire world will be my empire for the strong and will give rise to the invincible. Let the empire of it's army flourish!
All: Nero!
Nero: Look here. (creates an image of the Katsuras working on Makoto as they were) This man brings disgrace to the empire. Hunt him down.
Back on the island, Kotonoha helped Makoto onto his feet.
Professor Katsura: Now I want to point out that you're a human like you used to be.
Makoto: I'm not?
Professor Katsura: No. You're a cyborg now. But, you're still special in every way.
Makoto: Yeah? How?
Professor Katsura: Well, other than being able to do things that were imposible in life as an ordinary human. Further more, you're Metalder!
Makoto: Metalder?
On the island, the army arrived. Strobe, the jet-like Furious Fighter had discovered the secret base. He was joined by Chuubo, the Samurai-like warrior of the Shield Army. The entire army went to search for the professor. Coolgin wondered to himself why Nero wanted to take on the weak.
As for Makoto, the professor explained to him that he was to face some perils. He than ran out knowing they came for him.
Makato: How can I fight like this?
Kotonoha: Just go! I'll guide you!
Makoto took Kotonoha's word. When he came out, he saw that the professor was gone.
Chuubo: You're too late. Our comrades have brought the professor to Lord Nero.
Makoto: Nero?
Fufuchu (throws a fist at Makato): Take this, worm!
Makoto fell not knowing how good he was in his normal form.
Chuubo (beating up Makoto): How naive! You retched boy!
Makoto couldn't give up. With or without Kotohona's help, he had to rely on his human instinct. Kotonoha finally got in contact.
Kotonoha: Makoto-kun, I see you're getting used to the fighting, Now let's get to the basics. The keyword for you're transformation is "Ikaru".
Makoto: "Ikaru"? (stands up) IKARU!
Lighting struck down and changed Makoto's body into a robot.
Chuubo: Who may you be, fool?
Robot: Metalder.
The Med-Fighters went first. Metalder forced them off as they each grabbed his arm. He sent them falling on each other.
Fufuchu: Typhoon!
The only "Typhoon" Fufuchu was using was an explosion from the top of his black mid-east style hat.
Chuubo: Idiots!
Chuubo charged at Metalder and grabbed his arm. This gave his troops the advantage to tackle Metalder. Without his fighting skills, Metalder needed help from Kononoha. When she saw Metalder make a bad aim, she gave a new instruction.
Kotonoha: Metalder, you ever noticed from your eyes? You have what allows you to lock onto the target. Use you're targeting system!
Metalder came to his senses and used the targeting system Kotonoha mentioned on Strobe. His right arm glowed as he landed and sliced Strobe in halve.
Chuubo: You fight well. But this is not over.
The entire army retreated.
Kotonoha appeared and found Makoto in his human form. They watched the sun set and determined to find Makoto's father.
