Chapter 1 A Chance Encounter
The Earth our home world has long since been abandoned by our ancestors due to disappearing resources and pollution. Our ancestors escaped the dying planet by running to the stars few settled on habitable planets others established orbital space colonies. The military established a smaller branch of solders to keep the peace between the colonies. They are known as Guardians there are nine classes of a Guardian, they are divided into basic, intermediate, and advanced, each with their own specialty.
Hunters are solders specialized in basic melee weapons and upfront fighting styles, Force are solders who use low level special elemental attacks that can devastate an enemy, Ranger are solders who use small ranged weaponry to defeat their enemies. These three make up the basic level types and are considered entry level to the academy.
Next are Fightmasters, Forcemasters, and Gunmasters these three are an elevated level of the three basic and can handle slightly heavier weapons and techniques. The advanced level types are Acromaster, Protranser, and finally Grand Master. Arcomasters are balanced with melee attacks and Force abilities with minor gun usage. Protransers are balanced between melee and guns with a minor Force usage. The Grand Master is the most difficult to obtain since it a perfect combination of all three classes.
I live in an orbital Colony in the center of a small cluster of habitable planets. I worked hard to graduate the academy since I lost my parents to a raid on the planet close to the colony to prevent something like that from ever happening to someone else.
'It has been over four years since I enrolled into the military academy. Finally I will graduate and hopefully be selected to become a Guardian, elite of the military, but only time will tell.' I think as I am getting ready for graduation. I wear the black dress suit that is issued to us at the beginning of the senior year for all trainees.
I look myself over in the mirror to make sure I look presentable before I head to a teleporter to head the academy and head for the stage. My name is Isaac Alford, I'm 19 years old, a thin muscled build, medium length silver hair, brown eyes, and about 6' 7".
I take a seat in the stands and wait for the rest of the class to show for the ceremony to begin. Soon all the others who completed the final test began arriving and taking their seats for the ceremony. I wait until I am called up to the stage by the Headmaster.
"Isaac Alford based on your performance and grades you are granted the Guardian title of Protranser. Also for completing the bonus objective you are officially issued the Title Change ability with this ability you can change your title and weapons in the heat of battle." The headmaster says as he hands me a standard issue Nano Transformer along with a small disk. I accept them and shake the headmaster's hand while the crowd cheered.
I retake my seat and wait for the ceremony to end so I could go back home and rest. When the ceremony ended I went straight for the teleporter and headed into the city to get actual weapons and sell my practice weapons.
Once that was done I went back to the transporter and returned home. I look around my empty home and sigh I take off the uniform and attached the transformer to my neck. I activate it and summoned my clothes, a sliver colored lightly armored jumpsuit with red lining, black shoes, and silver colored fingerless gloves.
I lie down in bed and slowly drift off to sleep letting the darkness consume and relax my body. In the morning I wake up to the com system blaring into my ear, "Isaac here." I say into the com, "Isaac you are needed to head down to Kerdan to investigate a crash that happened late last night. Assist any survivors and protect them. We are issuing you a full loadout of Healing items. Command out." The com goes dead and I see a small medic bag appear in the transporter.
I pick it up and head out to the closest transport bound for Kerdan to complete my mission. When I touch down I head off into the wilderness in the direction of the crashed ship was seen coming down. I fought through the hostile wild animals to reach the crash site. I find a charred pathway and follow it to the source of the crash.
I keep a single saber and hand gun out to deal with the hostile wildlife. I eventually find the remains of a charred single person ship that wasn't designed by humans it was too sleek to be human. I look around the crash and find a figure sitting in the shattered cockpit I reach into the cockpit and pull the figure out.
I gently put the figure on to the grass and examine their body and was surprised by what I saw. The figure was a female humanoid blue fox wearing a blue jumpsuit but I shake my head to forget my shock and begin helping her.
I first look for external wounds but the only ones I see are a cut on the side of her head and minor scratches from when the cockpit was smashed. I open the bag and pull out a green pill with three red dots on it. I open her muzzle and pop the pill into her maw and close it.
I rub her throat until I felt her swallow the wounds begin to close and I hear her groan. She opens her eyes and sees me above her. She quickly tries to throw a punch at me but I see it coming and back off she gets up and assumes an offensive fighting stance.
"Easy I'm not here to fight you." I say trying not to start a fight with the person I'm suppose to protect. She looks at me slightly confused but she still keeps her stance up. "Who are you? Where did you come from?" I ask deciding to try and talk from a distance rather than try to approach her.
She looks at me again with a confused look and I see her ears twitch in alarm. I quickly bring up my HUD and see there is a large hostile creature coming towards us so I quickly turn around and ready my weapons. Then a huge snake like creature leapt out of the trees and tried to strike at the vixen. I slashed at it with my saber to draw its attention.
I keep it distracted while the vixen went back into the cockpit and began rummaging around for something. The snake knocked me down and tried to bite me but a small red orb hit it in its face and it backed off long enough so I could get up and land the finishing blow.
I breathe a sigh of relief as I will my weapons to disappear before I turn to face the vixen. She was standing on the ship with a gold staff in her hands and it was pointed at where the snakes head was before I killed it, "Thanks for helping me." I say even though she probably didn't understand what I was saying.
"You're welcome." A feminine voice says. I look around and see the vixen place her staff onto her back, "Was that voice yours?" I ask her and she nods. "Why didn't you say anything before?" I ask, "Because I didn't know your language right now I'm using your mind to translate what I'm saying." She says as she looks at her jumpsuit.
"Okay so who are you? And where did you come from?" I ask her once she was done looking at her suit. "My name is Krystal of Cerinia. I'm from the Lylat system." She responds and looks around, "Where are we?" she asks. "Right now we are on planet Kerdan." I respond. She looks over at me and quickly examines my body before pointing her staff at me again. "Who are you? And what are you?" She asks defensively.
"Whoa easy, my name is Isaac Alford and I am a human." I respond as I lightly knock the staff away. She looks at me confused again and lowers her staff, "A human? What's that?" She asks. "A human is inhabitant of a planet called Earth but we have long since left our world and branched off into the stars." I say as I look at the sky.
"Why were you the only one out here?" She asks, "It was my mission to investigate a crash that happened last night as well as helping and protecting any survivors." I say calmly. "Mission? So are you a solder?" She asks as she sits on the grass. "You could say that I am. I'm actually called a Guardian." I respond and sit next to her.
"Guardian?" She asks in curiosity, "We protect the colonies and settlements that are scattered across the stars." I respond simply. She nods and looks at her ship, "Is there some way for me to get off this planet?" She asks. I think for a few minutes before reaching for my communicator, "Isaac here I'm requesting a pick up at my current location also I am requesting to borrow a long range traveling starship." I say into the communicator.
"Both requests have been confirmed and will be allowed ETA five minutes. Command Out." The responder says. "You're lucky I have clearance for requesting a long range starship" I say to her. "Well thank you for accepting my request." She says and nuzzles me a little bit before backing away.
"If there is anything you want to save from your ship I suggest you grab it." I say with a small blush from her contact. "Alright." She heads back to the ship and throws out a medium sized backpack before she climbs out with a small gun. We wait for a few minutes before a small white ship with a blue markings landed in front of us, "I suggest destroying your ship so it can't be salvaged." I say as a ramp in the back opened.
"It's set to self-destruct after we leave the atmosphere." She says as she picks up the backpack and walks in. "Alright." I walk in behind her and sit across from her I reach for the intercom, "Pilot ready for takeoff." I say and the ramp closes. We feel the ship's engine roar as it lifts off the ground and heads into the atmosphere.
We barely feel the gravity due to the ships anti-gravity generator so I get up and pull something from my Nano Transformer, "Here If we get separated you can use this to find me." I say before I sit down again. "What is this?" She asks, "It's a Nano Transformer it's a special issued item that is only given to Guardians it is able to hold our weapons, items, attack arts, clothes, and upgrades. It can also be used as a communicator." I explain.
"How do I use it?" She asks as she examines it. I take it from her, "It needs to be placed at the base of the neck." I say and she nods. She bows her neck slightly I come from the side, "This may sting a bit." I say before shoving the disk into her neck. She yelps as she feels the disk sinks into her skin, "I told you it would sting" I say as I calibrate the Transformer to her.
"You said it would sting not feel like five burning needles digging into my skin!" She says in anger. "Well you aren't born with Photon Nanites so I expected it would feel like that." I say as I finish. "How do I use this thing?" She asks in curiosity, "It responds to thoughts so if you need something just will it to appear." I say as I sit down and select a pair of dual pistols, "Here use these if you need to." I say as I hand her the pistols.
"Why would I need these when I have my blaster and staff?" She asks in curiosity, "Because by the looks of your weapons they wouldn't deal any damage to a Guardian let alone a solder." I respond as the ship begins its docking sequence with the colony. "How do you know?" She asks I simply stand up, "Try to hit me with both." I say calmly. She reluctantly stands up and aims he blaster at me she pulls the trigger and the shot lances out of the barrel.
It dissipates as soon as it makes contact with my Line Shield and she looks in amazement at my lack of injury. She puts the blaster down and pulls out her staff to swing at me successfully connecting with my side but I didn't even flinch from the blow but I still felt the pain.
She stares at me with disbelief before the ship shakes from the completed docking sequence. I quickly catch Krystal before she falls to the floor and help her regain her balance. I see her blush a little when I caught her but it quickly disappeared when the ramp lowered. "Come on let's go stay close. I need to activate the cloaking ability of your Transformer." I say as I activate the cloak, "Why?" She asks.
"Not everybody would have acted like I did. Most would have left you to die or experiment with you. So this is your safety at least until I can get you back to your star system since it will take a day to prepare the ship we need." I explain as I walk down the ramp. I hear her footsteps follow me soon after I finish explaining. I head to the teleporter and step in. "Step in I'll take you to my home and you can rest there." I say before she hesitantly stepped in with me.
We step out of the teleporter, "Zack you here?" I ask out loud and a small grey hovering robot fox appears from another room. "What do you wish Master?" It asks as Krystal decloaks, "Please take my guest into the guest room and give her anything she needs." I ask it. "Understood, Guardian Command is requesting for you to contact them about your request;" He says and floats over to Krystal, "Follow me please Miss."
He floats away and Krystal follows him, 'Great what does Command want.' I think as I activate my communicator. "Isaac, reporting in." I say to the receptionist when it connects, "Oh Isaac let me patch you through to the Headmaster." She says and it connects to the Grandmaster's office.
"Isaac, we have another mission for you but this one is purely Exploration we want you to investigate the origin of that ship you were sent to. That design wasn't ours if there is other life we need to investigate it and hopefully they will be diplomatic." He says and sighs, "I understand then I will disclose what I found to you Headmaster." I say and take a deep breath.
"There was a pilot in that ship but I will not hand them over to the Guardians." I say firmly, "I understand Isaac but I hope you know what you're doing." He says before he cuts the connection. I sigh and walk back to my room to sleep for a bit.
