The Next Chapter is here my oh my!(I did these two in one day, do not expect this to happen again)(ever)
"Ok sis thank you, yes, the house is clean, no, thank you again, bye." Ichika hung up his phone.
"So what did you sister say?" Dan asked.
"She can get us a hotel room, but we're going to have to bunk up."
"Ok when do we leave?" Rin asks.
"Two days and you two have permission from you parents right?"
"I'll have to pull double shifts back home when we return." Dan sighed.
"Mine are fine with it as long as I bring back a souvenir." Dan gave Rin an evil eye as she giggled at his misfortune.
"Ok," Ichika started he pulled out a piece of paper and began to look off it. "to go over what the Americans want us to do when we get there, we are going to meet our contact in the area near a building called the Reichstag and from there we will be taken to the local HQ where we will get our supplies. Then that night we are going to infiltrate a German Special Operation base that was built over the German Association's Primary HQ. They have an IS so we are going to need to either be fast or quite. To complete this mission we must find our way into the remnants of the Association's HQ and activate it supercomputer with that we can find where more lost assets and groups are."
"So this is Germany. I expected more." Rin said as they walked out the airport.
"You're not impressed by much are you?" Ichika smirked
"Oh Ichika isn't that you sister." Dan asked.
"Yeah I asked if she could pick us up and take us to our hotel." The trio walked over to Ichika sister.
"So you have arrived." She said coolly "Huang, Gotanda good to see you again."
"Hello ma'am." They both say.
"How is my idiot brother doing?"
"I'm fine Chifuyu." Ichika happily says.
"Come on now I have a class to teach back at the German Academy in an hour" Chifuyu took the trio and drove them to their hotel which was the one closest to where they would meet their contact. As the three were getting out with bags Chifuyu pulled Ichika aside.
"Now I know you did not win a vacation here so how did you get here?" She asked.
"A friend of mine wanted to meet us here. Uh after you left I took up playing video games and joined up with a clan, I got Rin and Dan to join as well. My friend Ryan wanted to have a clan meeting and since a lot of the members were in Europe he picked Germany and paid for all of us to come." Ichika fibbed out.
"Well I like that lie better it molds the truth in at least." Chifuyu sighed. "I you need my help just ask and try not to get in trouble I do worry about you."
"Thanks Chifuyu." Chifuyu gave a slight nod and got back into her car and drove off.
"Ichika we need to go sign in and get our room keys." Rin said.
"Ok coming."
"So this is the Reichstag. There certainly isn't anything like this back home." Dan said as he, Ichika and Ran were milling around the German Government Building.
"So we are having a clandestine meeting outside one of the worlds most secure places." Rin noted.
"Well for one, our enemy expects us to be dealing in dark alleys." A French accented man in dark shades said as he walked up to the kids.
"Who are you?" Ichika replies.
"Sorry to frighten you, Ryan told me to look for three Japanese kids on with the Commander pendant on. I am Charles Dunois, but you can call me Charlie." The man finished.
"I thought we would be meeting the German Faction."
"No that faction died out so the Russian, Italian, and French split the area. Now come I'll explain what happened on the way to HQ." They followed Charlie to a black Rolls Royce. Charlie got into the drivers seat and Ichika and the others got into the back.
"Ok now that we are mobile and out of preying ears we can talk."
"So how many factions are alive?" Ichika asked.
"Well six in Europe, One in the Americas, about ten in Africa and now you in Asia." Charlie stated. "We have lost five in the Americas, we just lost Poland, and China was wiped out."
"How was the Chinese faction wiped out?" Rin asked.
"They blew themselves up taking apart an IS core, seems the cores have a self defense system."
"But one explosion could not have killed out an entire group." Dan pointed out.
"It can when you group only has ten people left. Most of that group fell apart from people leaving it."
"I could become the head of it!" Rin said excitedly.
"Why you're a woman why are you supporting us?" Charlie asked.
"Well as long as Ichika is in I will help him." Rin matter-of-factly said.
"Well that loyalty something up do not see much these days, she is a keeper kid."
"I would trust these two with my life." Ichika agreed. The car darkened. They had just entered an underground complex.
"Already much cooler than our base." Dan said jealously.
"These are old bomb shelters used by the Nazis. The German Faction retrofitted them just before they disappeared." Charlie explained. "What is your base?"
"A warehouse by a dock filled with ordinance." The car stopped as a few armed men gathered around it.
"Here is your stop these men with escort you to our base commander." Charlie said as one of the men opened the door to let the kids out. They walked through a few winding halls before making it to a large room with a map of the world on one of the wall.
"Ah you must be the Japan Kids, DC was certainly surprised about your existence and is even going to give you a free mission and toys." a man the base commander said. "Name's Andre Dupont, leader of the German side French Faction."
"Hello I am Ichika Orimura and with me is the rest of the Japan Faction." Ichika introduced himself.
"So have you been briefed on our current situation?." Andre asked.
"Sounds like our organization is about to die." Ichika says.
"And that is what I hope you will help us avoid. See we have two types of people in this organization old timers like us and newbies like DC and your people. All of us are going to have to work together to finish this fight."
"Wait," Rin says, "What exactly are you fighting for."
"Equality, with the IS women feel more dominant even though they are not. We want to build a weapon that will be equal to the IS and usable by everyone and anyone." Andre answers.
"So that's what the EX-1 is for." Rin gasps.
"Yes it's not perfect, but we are close."
"So what is our mission here and what supplies do we need?" Ichika cuts in.
"As you know you will be infiltrating a German Spec Ops facility that serves as the academy for their super soldiers."
"Wait the Academy, Rin, Dan pack up." Ichika yelped and Rin immobilized him.
"What is the problem?" Andre asked.
"My sister is working there, Chifuyu Orimura!" Ichika said nervously.
"We know, but you're not going in there to fight just to flip a switch." Andre tried to calm Ichika down. "DC has given you holographic stealth suits, thruster packs and a light particle shield, with you Commander's Pendant you shouldn't have a problem at all."
"Ok so sneak in flip the switch sneak out gain some fame within the network and go home sounds like fun." Dan said.
"Ok so for you loadout what can you kids do?" Andre asks
"I can use a sword." Ichika says.
"I know martial arts." Rin adds.
"I have practice with rifles." Dan notes. "What you guys thing I lay around all day and do nothing."
"Pretty much." Rin qubs.
"Ok when Charlie gets here he'll take you to the Armory and get your tools and then in about five hours you will be dropped off by a stealth helicopter just outside of the base. Good Luck Commander."
And so ends another ridicules chapter. Is this just me losing my sanity, or is this a half decent story? Please I need to know I am not all alone on the interwebs!
