This is my first Fanfic. There are no spelling errors, but please forgive any grammer errors. I hope there are none.
Disclaimer: I don't own Xenosaga, or any of the characters from the series. All that legal stuff.
This is an idea I had for a sequal to Xenosaga. I did it with Albedo238, so it isn't 100 percent as I'd invisioned, but I still think it came out well, and hope you enjoy it at least a fraction as much as I enjoyed writting it. Updates will be fast, because all that is left is to do the second draft.
The Schipper glides across the vast desert. It's obviously a well maintained machine, though the paint has begun to fade. The sun is still early in the sky, no more then a few hours past sunrise. It passes some debris from crashed ships, and other assorted wreckage without slowing. Suddenly it pulls to a quick, but controlled, stop. A blue haired women lies face down in the sand apparently buried from the mid-back down, as well as the left arm. She's naked except for a headpiece, and arm armor. The Schipper's cockpit opens up, and out steps someone wearing a protective suit. They look around before walking over to the women. Kneeling down, they put a hand on the blue haired women's back, and as they slide their hand down her back, sand is brushed away to reveal the lower half of her body is gone. A few wires, and a bit of metal sticks out from under her skin. There can be no doubt the women is a robot. Reaching across, they brush sand from her arm to see it's also missing. Putting a hand on the women's shoulder they roll her over, and right before she's all the way over, the camera switches to a close up of her face to show it's KOS-MOS. We switch to a view at about the same level as KOS-MOS, angled upward. We can see KOS-MOS's face, the top half of her breasts and the person in the suit, who stands up and looks around again.
Switch to an over-head view, too far away to make out Kos-mos's body clearly, and as the person bends down to hoist Kos-mos onto their shoulder, the Symbol, name, and sub name of this Episode appear on the screen.
Like Ep1 the screen switches between a scene and a black screen showing credits. The unknown person loads Kos-mos into a carrying case on the side of the Schipper. credits. Climbs into one of the Schippers dual cockpits, and straps in. credits. The Schipper's engines fire up and it takes off across the desert. Credits. Racing across the desert, it passes the debris scattered across the desert, a bird or two, and the occasional strange creature. credits. The Schipper finally comes pulling up to a lone building, right where the desert is beginning to fade with growing wildlife. On the house the A.M.W.S. pulls up to is desert, but the other side has a small lake, a couple of trees, and grass spreading out a ways from the lake. credits. The first room just inside the garage/hangar, for the A.M.W.S. is some kind of mechanics workshop. The door opens and in comes the person carrying KOS-MOS. Laying her down on a table in the middle of the room they push a button on the table's console, which closes this shutter that, if KOS-MOS were whole, would cover her body from neck to toe, and the table begins to scan KOS-MOS. Switch to a view from Amelia's chin to the bottom of her chest as she pulls of her helmet. She reaches down and brushes KOS-MOS's hair off her face, then touches her cheek in a very tender manner, before walking away. We get a view from the shoulders down as Amelia goes over to the door, and leaves the room. A similar camera angle as she rounds the corner and jogs up a stairway. At the top of the stairs she opens a door and comes into a rather messy room. There are models of ships and mechs all around the room. Including ones that look like the E.S., the Durandal, Dummerung, and the Elsa. Books on mechanics and tools are on the unmade bed. Amelia hangs the helmet on a hook near the door, then reaches up and pulls the pin out of her hair letting it fall down past her shoulders. A view of her chest as she unzips, and starts sliding out of the suit. She's wearing a loose fitting white tank top and when she gets the suit all the way down we see she's wearing white panties with a small pink rose near the top. She hangs the suit up next to the helmet, then pulls her panties off and tosses them in a pile of dirty laundry on the floor. She flips on the T.V. before pulling the tank top off as she steps into the shower.
Report "…been five years to the day since the mysterious collapse U.M.N. and the disappearance of all gnosis. No contact has been made with anyone who was not on Keltia when the incident occurred since that day. We still have no information surrounding the events of five years ago, thought it is believed…"
While the reporter goes on we go into the shower stall with Amelia. A view from the small of her back and up, at a angle from below and slightly to the side. She rubs then sides of her neck, then runs her hands though her hair, pushing it all onto her back. Then she puts both hands on the wall and sticks her head under the showerhead, letting the water stream down her whole body. Turning off the water, she stands there for a moment before getting out. She grabs a towel of the shower door and tosses it over her head while she starts looking through the junk on her bed for the TV remote.
Reporter "And in other news. The Seraphim sisters celebrated another year of being together last night with."
Amelia flips the channel to a music station. Tossing the remote back on the bed she starts digging through her dresser drawer while tapping her foot to the music. She flops several clothing items on the bed before sliding on a pair of pink velvet panties. Then she pulls on a pair of tight, black leather, pants that she zips up in the back. She looks at the several shirts on her bed before picking a black tube top. She pulls it on as she flips off the TV. makes her way for the door. She grabs a red women's jacket off the hook next to the containment suit, before closing the door behind her. Making her way down the stairs, she goes back into the garage and over to control panel next to the table Kos-mos is on. Putting on hand on the console she reads the readout of the scan.
Amelia "Hmm, what the?
Seth "So did you actually find something today?"
looking over her shoulder we see Amelia's face for the first time. Seth is standing in the doorway leading inside. Turning to face him, and placing one hand on her hip, She points at Seth.
Amelia "You better believe it, and it's amazing. Some kind of android, or maybe even a cyborg."
Walking over to Kos-mos, Seth places one hand on the table and leans in to get a good look at her.
Seth "Well she is prettier than your average android, but other than that what's so special about her? I mean androids, and cyborgs haven't been made for over 100 years. Kind of makes her obsolete."
Amelia "You're the one always telling me to respect my elders, and how age brings knowledge and all that. 'walks over to join Seth' "I think you'd be able to appreciate an antique. As things age they gain value, and the rarer they are the better."
Seth "I suppose."
Amelia "Besides, when I look at her I get this feeling, I don't know, like she's more than just a machine. Like she has a soul."
Seth "A soul? When are you going to grow up Amelia? Machines can't have souls any more then a rock can."
Amelia "I know that. She's different though, I know she is."
Seth "You going to repair her then? Try and see if you can't get her working again?"
Amelia "Of course I am. I can't just leave her this way. She needs me, so I'm going to help her."
Seth "Whatever you say. I've nothing else to do if…"
Amelia "No way buddy." 'starts shoving Seth out of the room' "No boys allowed. This poor young girls is naked and everything so we can't have you looking at her."
Seth "But she's just a machine, what would I care? Besides I'm not really like that."
Amelia "Then explain those magazines of yours."
Seth "What mag… How do you know about those?"
Amelia "So you admit it. Now get out and stay out till I say other wise."
After locking the door behind Seth, Amelia turns back to Kos-mos and rolls up her sleeves.
Amelia "Alright, this is gonna be a hard one."
