African desert 2112 70 years after Galatia's death
The sun in the desert was burning hot even for the desert and as 2 teenagers were riding their hover crafts through the sand wail laughing and carrying on.
"Hey Polly slow down." A young man yelled to his girlfriend. "I see something."
"What are you saying Kith?" Polly asked.
"Stop!" Kith said. "There's something in the sand."
Polly slowly brought the craft to a halt and got off.
"What do you see?" She asked as Kith ran to an object that was in the sand.
"It's a skull." He said as he picked up the sun bleached skull. "It's been here for a long time."
"Put it down it might be a crime seen." Polly said picking up the CB radio and turning it to channel 9. "Hello. Hello this is Polly Kricheck."
"Miss Kricheck this channel is for emergencies only unless you have an emergency you have to get off the line." An operator said.
"We just found a skull in the south western portion of the Sierra Park." Polly said.
"Ok Miss Kricheck I understand." The operator said. "We have an officer on root."
Polly put the radio back down and walked to where Kith was standing with the skull in his hand.
"Hey check this out." Kith said and put the skull on his hand. "To be or not to be? That is the question."
"Have some fucking respect." Polly yelled smacking him on the back of the head. "The police are on their way."
Kith put the skull down and walked over to the craft and took a drink from his water bottle and waited for the police to show up. Less than 20 minutes later there was an officer taking down their statements and looking at the skull.
"Well it looks like this is the only remains around." He said.
"So do you think you can bring whoever it is back?" Polly asked.
"I don't know." The officer said. "We'll have to leave that up to the science team."
He put the skull into a bag and set it in his car and thanked Polly and Kith for their help and drove away. He headed right for the science department of the African police.
Science department
"Hey Sherry." The officer said as he walked into the regeneration room.
"Oh hi Tim." Sherry said. "What have you got for me today? A challenge I hope."
"This was found in the desert." Tim said handing Sherry the Skull.
"Is this all there was?" Sherry asked.
"Yea 2 teenagers found it." Tim said.
Sherry looked at the skull and smiled.
"It's a female." She said. "Japanese maybe early twenties."
"I'll never understand how you can tell all that just by looking at a skull." Tim laughed.
"Years and years of looking at skulls." Sherry said.
"So is she gonna live?" Tim asked jokingly.
"Let's find out." Sherry said and placed the skull into a vat of liquid.
She went over to the computer and hit the execute key. The vat of liquid began to glow and churn. The skull rose to the middle of the liquid and bones started to grow from the base of the skull and slowly took human form. The light in the vat grew brighter as the process went into the 2nd stage. Muscles began to grow and attach to the bone and organs grew. Soon the bones were mostly covered and the 3rd stage began. Skin started to cover the bones, muscle and organs leaving a shriveled form in the liquid. Finally the last stage began and blood was produced by the bones and soon the skin filled out and the final form of the body was left.
"Ok now to bring her back to life." Sherry said as the vat of liquid drained. "Give me a hand."
Tim and Sherry lifted the body and laid it of a table. Sherry charged the electrical panels and began shocking the heard as Tim used a respiration bag to fill the lungs with air. After several shocks the EKG showed signs of the heard working on its own and the woman started to breath on its own.
"IT'S ALIIIVVEEEE." Tim yelled mimicking the old Frankenstein movie.
"Very funny now hand me that gown and let's get her to recovery." Sherry said.
2 days later.
"After several days of blood type matching and fingerprints being run through a computer the name of the woman that was brought back to life was found to be Priscilla Asaragi." Sherry said in the board of doctors. "She disappeared 70 years ago."
"Is she awake?" A doctor asked.
"No." Sherry said. "She is in a coma but she should be coming out of it soon."
"Very well." The doctor said. "Good work Doctor Hemora."
Sherry walked down the hall of the hospital and headed to the comatose ward. Priss was laying on the bed with an IV in her arm.
"Any progress?" Sherry asked.
"Yes ma'am." A nurse said. "She moved her hand today."
"That's great." Sherry said. "Let's see if we can bring her out of the coma."
The nurse walked to a cabinet and took a vile of ammonia and cracked it open and waved it under Priss's nose. Slowly Priss started to move her head as she came to then she started thrashing her head and opened her eyes and sat up.
"Easy. Easy." Sherry said. "Miss Asaragi calm down your safe."
"Where… Where am I?" Priss asked.
"You're in a hospital." Sherry said.
"How long have I been here?" Priss asked looking around.
"2 days." Sherry said.
"Do my friends know where I am?" Priss asked.
"Ummm Miss Asaragi." Sherry said. "You died 70 years ago."
"What?" Priss asked not believing her.
"Your remains were found in the desert and brought to my lab and I regenerated you." Sherry said. "All your friends are either dead or dying."
"You regenerated me?" Priss asked.
"Yes." Sherry said. "You should be happy you are now the first person to be regenerated that has been dead for over 40 years."
"I can't believe it." Priss said.
"I know how you feel." Sherry said.
"How can you?" Priss asked.
"Because in 2088 I was murdered and dumped in a ditch." Sherry said. "My remains were found 6 years ago and I was regenerated."
"I'm sorry." Priss said.
"That's ok." Sherry said.
"Umm is there a way for me to get back to Tokyo?' Priss asked after a moment of silence?"
"Yes there is." Sherry said. "But I have to ask you a few questions."
"Ok." Priss said.
"Were you murdered that you know of?" She asked.
"No I got lost when I was on vacation and I must have died in the desert." Priss said.
"Ok." Sherry said. "Do you have any family that may still be alive?"
"No." Priss said.
"Ok that's all I have to ask." Sherry said. "It used to be much longer of questioning but if you were murdered 70 years ago and you don't know it thin you killer is more than likely dead."
"So I can go home?" Priss asked.
"Yes." Sherry said. "I'll get you some clothes and a ticket home but you'll have to find a place to stay on your own."
"I know." Priss said. 'Sylia you had better of had kids.' She thought.
14 hours later.
Priss stood outside the building that used to be known as the Silky Doll but was now a large building that was called Kerkmin's auto repair.
'I guess Nigel hit it big.' Priss thought as she walked inside. She walked up to the counter and found a man in his early twenties sitting behind a desk looking at a computer.
"Umm excuse me." Priss said.
"Yes ma'am can I help you?" The young man asked.
"Was this building once known as the Silky Doll?" Priss asked.
"Yes 50 years ago." The young man said. "It belonged to my grandmother."
"Umm her name was Sylia right?" Priss asked.
"Yes ma'am" He said are you doing some king of history report on Tokyo or something?" He asked.
"Yea." Priss said. "More or less."
"Well then you should talk to her she can help you." He said.
"She's alive?" Priss asked in shock.
"Yes she is in her mid 90s but she is still young at heart." The man said.
"I'd like indeed to see her." Priss said.
"Ok take that elevator up to the 3rd floor she will be in the living room." The man said pointing to the elevator.
"Thank you." Priss said in barley over a whisper.
She walked into the elevator and took it to the 3rd floor and walked out. There was a woman that looked to be in her 60s sitting on the couch watching the TV when Priss walked in.
"Can I help you?" The woman asked in an elegant tone.
"Oh my God." Priss said taking a step back. "Sylia?"
"Yes." She said. "Who are you?"
"The man down stairs said you were in your mid 90s." Priss said.
"I am." Sylia said.
"But you look so young." Priss said.
"Why thank you." Sylia said. 'It's the new procedure. It will keep you young looking and feeling until you are about 120 years old."
"Wow." Priss said.
"But you should know about that it's been around for 20 years." Sylia said.
"I was just regenerated 3 days ago." Priss said.
"Oh well then welcome back to life." Sylia said. "How long ago were you killed?"
"I was killed on Jun 23rd 2042." Priss said.
Sylia looked at the woman and her jaw dropped and she started to cry.
"Priss." She said covering her mouth and standing up.
"Yes Sylia it's me." Priss said.
Sylia slowly walked towards Priss and suddenly ran at her and hugged her tightly.
"I thought I'd never see you again." Sylia cried. "We really could have used you help a few years ago."
"Why?" Priss asked.
"Well it may not look like it but Boomers have taken control of Tokyo and now humans and not allowed out at night and if one is found they are killed on the spot. A new group of Knight Sabers stood against them but they were no match and my daughter was killed in the fight."
"I'm sorry." Priss said.
"Thank you." Sylia said. "Only one member of the team made it out he is the one that is down stairs. He's my daughter's son Leo."
"Who was the other member?" Priss asked.
"Lori McNichol." Sylia said. "Leon's daughter and Leo's girlfriend."
"Wow." Priss said. "It's got to be hard on him."
"Well he got over it after a few years." Sylia said.
"What about Nene and Linna were they there?" Priss asked.
"No they never came back from the battle with Galatia." Sylia.
"Well they came out of space I know that." Priss said.
"I wish we knew where they landed maybe then we could find their remains and have it out with the new Tokyo order as they call them selves."
"Can't you look at some data from a space observatory and see all the objects that came into earth's atmosphere on Jun 20 2042?" Priss asked.
Sylia went several shades of gray before looking up at Priss and smiling.
"I never thought about that." She said and ran for the computer.
"Mackey taught me everything he knew about computers before he was killed by the Boomers. So I should be able to hack into an observatory."
A few hours later Sylia had hacked into the Tokyo observatory and was searching records from 2042 and found the records from Jun 20th.
"Ok we have 6 objects that were about the size of a human that entered the earth's atmosphere." Sylia said. "1 landed in Africa."
"That was me." Piss said.
"1 landed in China one in the pacific ocean near California USA, 1 burned up in reentry, and 2 landed on an island off the coast of New Zealand."
"That's them." Priss screamed.
Sylia brought up a satellite map of the island and looked at it.
"It's only about a mile long and a mile wide." She said. "What do you say we go on a trip?"
"Sounds like a plan." Priss said with a smile.
Priss and Sylia walked into the elevator and Sylia punched in a few numbers on the elevator and took it down to the pit. The door opened on a room that Priss knew all too well. She walked to a locker that was hers but was now empty. "Is there a suit "I can wear?" Priss asked.
"In the launcher." Sylia said. "Go get into a skin suit and then get the suit on and meet me in the living room I'm gonna get a friend of mine to fly us the island."
Sylia walked back into the elevator and took it to the store floor and walked up to the counter.
"Leo I'm gonna leave for a few days and I'm gonna be coming back with some friends I want toy to get 3 room ready." Sylia said.
"Ok grandma." Leo said. "Where did that woman go that went to see you?"
"She's in the pit getting her suit on." Sylia said.
"What?" Leo asked.
"Her name is Priscilla Asaragi she was one of friends when we took down Galatia. She died right after and she was just regenerated." Sylia said. "We're gonna go look for the Remains of Nene Romanova and Linna Yamazaki. Its time we retake Tokyo."
(He he he this could be fun. I had a dream about this last night and just had to write it down.)
