Prologue
Hibiki didn't like the idea, but it was his only choice. His new home was Akuma Island.
He really didn't have much choice, he didn't want to leave the city he grew up in, but at the same time didn't want to be found. The island would be the one place no one would look for him.
"Callaghan made it work," he said to himself. "So I can too."
It had been three months since he had created the alias Onryō and tried to kill Abigail Callaghan to make her father pay for murdering Tadashi. He had almost done it too, but then he realized that killing an innocent would make him just a big a monster as Robert Callaghan.
Shortly after, he was asked to join the Big Hero 6, but… he just couldn't bring himself to face his friends or his sister ever again after what he had tried to do to them. Thus, Hibiki ran away and decided to live in solitude for the rest of his natural life.
Hibiki was exploring the various halls of the old Krei facility on the island. The place was massive. Krei used to conduct experiments with dangerous equipment here, until his portal device went to shit and ruined the island.
All of the rooms were filled with strange pieces of equipment, and a lot of it looked like weapons. Krei had many secrets that he probably hid on this island.
Then he came across a door. Of all doors throughout the complex, this one interested because it was the only one that was locked. The door had faint writing on it, but Hibiki was still able to make out the words.
"Project V.A.D.A.I," Hibiki said to himself. "This lock looks new. Electronic too. Man I must be losing my mind, i'm talking to myself. Then again, i'm not the most boring person in the world to talk to. Right?"
Silence.
"Okay, i'll just get to work on this lock then."
It took him almost an hour, but Hibiki finally managed to hack his way into the door. It creaked open with a loud mechanical echo.
Hibiki stepped to inside, and not much to his surprise, it was pitch black.
Then everything lit up.
Hibiki could see the room clearly now. He could also see four armed guards filing into the room. They must've known where the light switch was.
The man leading the group pointed a gun to Hibiki's head.
"Who are you?!" the man yelled.
Hibiki was confused. He had no idea who these people were, or what they were here for.
"This is a restricted area. Did you not see the signs?"
"Uh, too be honest, I did but decided to ignore them."
"Who are-"
"Sir," a second gunman said, "I found George and Venessa."
The gunmen motioned toward a sight that almost made Hibiki puke. In the corner of the now lit room, were two bodies.
"What the hell did this?" another gunman said, looking at the bodies horrified.
His question was answered when a large screen on the wall opposite of the door lit up. There was only a white screen, but a woman's voice spoke out.
"I deleted them," the voice spoke softly. "My orders are to 'delete the things that make it hard for other things to fucntion properly.' Now, you must be deleted.
Hibiki wasn't sure what happened. There was an uproar of screams, and a bright light then everything went black.
"Deletion completed," the voice spoke calmly.
(*****)
(A/N) This seemed pretty gruesome when I wrote it. It feels as if I didn't write this to my fullest extent, but I really can't see this being written any other way. Hope you guys liked this. I decided to write a prologue because I didn't want my story to start out boring, and I already had the idea in my head and couldn't see how I could throw it into the story without it being a prologue. Just to clarify, the rest of the chapters will not be as short as this one. That's DaydreamDepartment out of your hair! )
