Joke Series, PART 2

So, you all have The Digger92 to blame/credit for this omake, because he gave me the idea of stuffing Kurt into the world of Freezing.

Please note that it's been a loooooong time since I've touched Freezing. Mainly because I went into my visual novel binge. So, I sorta just did some things on the wiki and then decided to create a few OCs. Mainly because from what I read, a lot of the science crew on board isn't… exactly the best, so I wanted someone other than Kurt backing him up on science.

Oh, so a short story on how this also came into existence. I brought up the idea as a joke to a friend of mine on how we could get this crossover done, and how the Freezing fields would be like a magnetic field. A few hours later, I GET A MESSAGE SAYING IT'S FEASIBLE AND NOW I WAS COMPELLED TO WRITE IT XD

But anyways, here we go with this omake! I hope I… kept everyone roughly in character.

Also, remember that nothing in here is part of Storms Overhead. If Kurt mentions an event, it doesn't mean it will happen in the original story. Oh, and it's in First Person Present Tense, for a change of pace.

Here we go!

Omake: Gig Does The Multiverse, Part 1

"THIS WAS NOT IN MY CONTRAAAAAAACT!"

Ugh… fucking… that is the last time I… touch magical artifacts… Where am I—technology. OH MY GOD A VENDING MACHINE.

Wait, does that mean I'm on—THAT'S A SUN! AND A BLUE SKY! AND AN AIRPLANE! AND A HELICOPTER! HOLY FUCK MOTHERING HELL ON WHEELS OF SHIT STAINS AND BLOOD, I'M BACK, BABY!

Ahem.

Okay, but it's really, really quiet for a city. Liiiiike… creepy quiet. Aw dammit, and I just got rid of the runes, too. I mean I technically just infused them into something else, but still, it would be handy to have them here.

And holy sweet damn, that is an ugly motherfucker in the distance. Geez, did someone misplace the Shamshel mecha or something? What the fuck? When did Earth start getting invaded by gigantic motherfucking monsters all the time?! Wasn't the Beast like, killed or something when we used really nerfed version of World Gate that one time to spy on Earth just to check out what was going on?

And why does the invading monster look like a giant dick? I mean, seriously, it does! Other than the weird purple hair shtick it's got going on and the glowing purple crystal in the middle of it—holy shit those helicopters are stuck in the air around it. Wait, what?

Hold on, those helicopter blades aren't moving. What the actual fuuUCKING HELL IT JUST SPIKED THEM. And by that I mean, did it just shoot those things from its body?!

Okay, that's it. Time to get to fucking work.

Ah, vending machine from before. Let's get this working… shock you! And there's a bunch of coins spilling out! Awesome.

Now just to put them all into my railgunning case that I designed while I had some free time back at the Academy… yup, all set and ready to go. Just need to send a small shock down this bad boy and it'll pop a coin out for me to blast that giant son of a bitch.

I climb onto the roofs, looking around the ruins of the city. Damn, this really is like Evangelion or something. I see cars and shit scattered everywhere like everyone fled for their lives. Consider giant alien beast thing is invading them, I'm not exactly surprised.

Well, I guess railguns do tend to do well here. Ah, but I've got to account for the fact I'm blasting away with coins. Those guys are going to be melted by the heat.

Looks like I'll have to get closer.

As usual, magnetic field control is my optimal technique for quickly moving. It's really amazing what you can do with simple techniques after using them for at least a year with constant improvements. Hell, I could be flying at this point, but that would just make me really, really conspicuous.

Holy damn though, that is an ugly motherfucker.

Well, I guess I'll just railgun you and—

My combat instincts scream to move. I don't question them and leap backwards. For a second I swear I see hexagons in the air condensing around my left hand that didn't make it far away in time.

Okay, now just to—Okay no that's not funny left hand. I know you guys are used to the runes being bitches in there, but seriously, not the time to freeze up.

Oh God, my fucking left hand isn't responding to me! Come on, asshole! Whoa, wait? Hold up, there's… a magnetic field around it? Geez, it's strong… no wonder my hand can't move. The magnetic field is so strong that it's actually pushing my hand into place! It's like it's frozen into place or something, too!

But lucky me. I've got my own tricks.

I try forcing the field off, but no dice. Looks like that huge ugly bastard has some sort of tag on me. But fortunately for me, I can simply snake a field of my own around my hand that's just as strong to push back on it.

Once I do that, I try moving my hand. I've been getting so good with this field manipulation that this is child's play to me. But as my hands moves, so does the magnetic field of my own creation, pushing back on the one that kept it in place.

Now just to wrap that entire field around myself… there we go. That should allow me to keep moving if that guy tries a full shot on me.

Ugh, looks like my railgun is going to be a lot less effective. Hmm… unless I launch it so fast that the magnetic field this creature is projecting can't actually stop it in time.

Oh hey, it looks like there's someone else is here… and a girl is with him as well, but the guy is knocked out. She's moving him to shelter… and yeah, I see them… and now they're safe.

Sorry guys.

I move down and quickly incapacitate the girl, putting her down in the shelter area as well, before taking their communicator.

Now that I've secured a way to talk with the others—oh hey that's Japanese—I can actually get around the place.

Let's go fuck some shit uuuuup!

"Hey, do you see that?"

"Hm?"

"There appears to be someone else in the city, fighting against the—there it is again!"

"There is! Grey haired, too… h-huh?! A guy?!"

"A what?!"

"Yes, that's a male! Or at least, he or she isn't wearing the usual uniform! And he's got a communicator on him! I thought Yukikaze Two had been downed, no wonder it was moving!"

"Contact him."

"Hey, whoever you are!"

Whoa, Japanese okay. "Yes? I'm currently in the middle of killing this thing."

"Projectile attacks are ineffective! It's freezing field will prevent—"

"We'll see about that."

I accelerate the coin with magnetic fields to absurd levels. The force exerted by the monsters' generate magnetic fields doesn't manage to stop the coin or even reduce its speed by all that much. It hits the core right away, causing the monster to stumble. I also detect that the magnetic fields keeping things frozen in place wavers slightly.

"Anyways, you were saying?" I ask in a bit of a smug tone, but laugh afterwards.

"W-w-what are we dealing with?!" Comes a different voice, shouting in surprise.

"What are you dealing with? What am I dealing with?!" I scream back, dodging another spike volley attack by leaping to the side and comboing with various Detonation Blasts.

"That's a Type F Nova! How wouldn't you know?!"

"Okay whatever. But as for your question… Just who am I?"

I smash the Detonation Blast near the ground and fly up to the telephone poles, where I immediately begin grinding on the wires, firing coins at the Nova thing.

"That's what we're asking you."

"Well then tell me, who's the baddest of the bad? The maddest of the mad? The killer of kings and the destroyer of worlds?!"

I move quickly, pulling myself with magnetic fields to deliver an ultra-fast slice with the Gigawatt Blades across its core before resuming grinding. All right, you giant monster… let's finish this.

Giving a maniacal laugh to the sky, I begin absorbing electricity from all the systems nearby. "If you don't already know…"

Master… SPAAAAAAAARK!

"IT'S KURT 'GIIIIIIIG' BRIGHT!"

The core is swept up in the massive beam of electricity, frying, electrifying, burning, destroying the beast's core. It was fully eradicated, not leaving even a trace behind. Man, I love using that power. And now that I'm in a city, I can fuel it all the time! Awesome. Huh, it does look like there are some people moving in to finish the job or whatever.

Now just to—Oh God my legs. Oh fuck my arms. Ohhhh no. I can't keep up, I'm detecting a lot of fields here being used here! Oh fuck me in the aaaaaa—

I feel something dig into my arm and everything goes black.

Ugh… ugh… geeeh… where am I…? Why does this keep happening to me…?

What the hell was that? I got assailed by like, six different fields! What the fuck! When did everyone else get magnetism powers?! That's not even fair anymore!

Ugh, this karma biting me in the ass. I abused my electricity powers like, all that time ago, and then bam here I am being fucking assaulted and shit by at least six magnetic field manipulators. Damn, that's not even fair.

—And my situation is looking a loooooot bleaker right now.

Let's see… I'm currently held in place, I see what obviously is lab equipment, there's cameras in multiple places, speakers, and a probably bulletproof glass window.

Ah, I see my railgun attachment thing.

Oh and as for being held in place, I look like I'm being spread out in a giant 'X'. Geez… these things are strong. And uh… oh God, what is this place?

Fuck, this isn't a laboratory! I've been kidnapped by some insane magnetic manipulator sex cult or something. Those… um… things or whatever's on the wall. Yeah, I don't know. It looks like… some weird fetish shit or whatever for girls or guys, some sort of thing that looks like a lot of belts and whatever.

What the hell?! Did I get sucked into like, some weird-ass hentai or porn set or whatever?

"Hey! Listen! Whoever's out there! I'm not into this sort of shiiiiiit! I'm gonna make you all an offer you can't refu—MMHPHPPMMMPH!"

Son of a bitch they've got mouth clamp-gag-things. What the fuck did I do to deserve this shit?! Did I kill their god or something?! Was that giant fucking penis monster thing in the city with spikes shooting everywhere that killed helicopters their god or whatever?!

Uggggggh… okay, I can't find an exit in here. I need to wait. I'd also rather not show off my ability to disintegrate things just yet…

I was able to find the door as soon as someone enters. Door location, noted. It doesn't seem like they've got a coat on or anything…

"Okay, Kannazuki-san, you may approach the Test Subject. Do whatever you need to do to collect a sample."

"Let's do away with that gag." She says, snapping her fingers, in a very… dominating manner.

"Hey, someone else in here. Okay, can I get explanation for what the fuck am I doing here?!"

"Quite the powerful shouter, aren't you?" she asks, tracing the area of my neck with her fingers. I note that she's dressed in some sort of uniform. Purple skirt and jacket, white lines running down it, white stockings, black ribbon—oh wait Japan that probably means something I think. "An odd limiter, though…"

"Yeah I'll say, these things here are limiting me quite a bit."

"No need to struggle. Now… my name is Kannazuki Miyabi, just so you know what to scream later."

"And why would I—mphmphmpmmm!"

I get silenced by her lips crashing into mine, pinning me onto the back of the platform-stretcher thing that I'm on. Her left hand cups my cheek while her right hand—OKAY NOPE YOU STAY THE HELL AWAY FROM MY PANTS!

I push her back with my magnetic field as her tongue breaks through into my mouth. Nope-dot-A-V-I, you stay the hell away. Okay, made my decision, I'm out of here. Nope, this is just as bad as the one time Louise and I decided to investigate the Succubus Lair and made a really bad judgement call by betting on who could eradicate the leader when we found out their master plan and ended up in a really, really precarious situation. Did not know Louise possessed that sort of skill in certain areas.

Note to self, make sure her mother never finds out that I know that she knows how to do that sort of thing. Or I'm going to be deeeeeead!

But seriously, let's get the hell out of here.

I try shorting the binds first, which is useful since said binds on me are electronically controlled. Grab the railgunner and—

"Hngk…!"

Held in place again…! Not this shit… it's not just my hand this time…!

I trigger my thinking overdrive again. The nerves that make up thought processes shoot up in reactivity, allowing me to determine the field I need to negate the one she's projecting. That's right, I'm free now! Now just to take the railgun~

There are screams over the speakers as I move, throwing myself over the thing I was attached to, making sure the railgunner is loaded. Heh, they kept the coins. Nice.

I throw a fierce glare in the girl's direction before screaming. "Eat this!"

"Kannazuki-san, don't try to block it!"

She dodges, the blazing projectile of molten coin barely dodging her face. "Wha…?"

Well, I guess I can hide my powers by using this thing.

"Hey, anyone on the other side of that glass, might wanna find some cover!"

A coin flies out as the railgunning assistant device (I haven't formally named it anything) and within a second said coin is ripping through the bulletproof glass window.

As the madness continues, I activate the Gigawatt Blade and use it to cut my way out and into the observation room. All it takes to make one scientist faint is pointing the railgun at her, after which I loot her for her identification card. It easily opens up the doors to the hallways, which I sprint down.

Okay, more soldiers to deal—oh geez okay that stings a bit! Fucking tasers! I mean, they don't really hurt with the shock, but the problem is the little spike things I'm feeling.

For irony, I overload the current and make the soldier's own taser explode before sprinting off. I have to get out of here.

"Stay back!" I roar, trying to be intimidating as possible before firing a warning shot with the railgun. Well, as close as I can get to a warning shot anyway.

Okay, let's get the heeeeeell out of here!

Ha… ha… okay, quick summary.

I've been on the run for about… a week now? Holy damn, these guys are crazy! And unlike the giant monster, I can't just shoot down those helicopters like no one's business.

Fortunately, now that the city's back into a somewhat normal mode, I was able to swap out my outfit and whatnot. And also obtain a backpack to which I can store my railgun in. That thing was literally the easiest way to identify me.

I bite down on a hamburger I got from… Wild Duck or something thing like that, anyway. Ah… that's better.

But seriously, I'm sick of being on the run. Oh, there's a library. I'm sure I can find out whoever's in charge around here.

"Hello." I say in a very gravelly voice, dressed in all black and staying in the shadows to Setsura Ruina, the current leader of this city.

"Who are… you?"

"I am the blackness itself. I am the dark knight. I am the goddamn Bat—" I pause, coughing, before returning to my normal voice. "I'm Kurt Bright. The ah, runaway at the moment."

"Ah yes." She says, chuckling. "I remember your incident. So, have you come here to kill me then?"

"Actually no, I've come to work out a deal." I say, stepping into the light. "Look, I don't know what I did wrong. I appeared here as a result of an experiment that went really, really wrong."

Of course, time to make up this lie as we go.

"And well, I appeared in the middle of an attack. I saw that thing destroying the hell out of the city and helicopters like Evangelion, so I took matters into my own hands and decided to kill it. Did I make a mistake and that thing is actually our friend?"

The chuckling turns to full out laughter. "No, no. In actuality, you helped us. Of course, you were an anomaly. You had to be taken in."

"And the experiment? I don't know what that girl was about to do, but the way she was running her fingers all over me and reaching for my pants did not make me thing it was anything good."

"Ah… well, allow me to tell you this lightly… I'm sure you've already learned about the Nova wars and the Pandoras and Limiters. The scientists, after observation, thought you were a male Pandora, or at least a mix between Pandora and Limiter. I mean, you did have that weapon on you, which of course was like a Volt Weapon."

"Ohhh… oops, I ran into waaaay too many coincidences at one time. So they wanted to…"

"Extract a sample. Or at least, more types."

"Aw fuck me."

"You're quite crude."

I cross my arms. "I've been told as such. Okay, anyway my deal. Look, I'm willing to cooperate with you guys. I don't exactly like those things either. And I'm a little tired of being on the run. So…"

"You'd like to negotiate on the terms of your exoneration."

"Yes."

"Well… if you're willing to, then we can send you to the West Genetics Academy. No doubt they're already trying to get you planted there in the event you are captured."

"I see… Then, make the call?"

"Hahaha, you're certainly aggressive. Very well."

"Oh, and as for my first demand… no sex experiments. I will decide whether or not to give… er… you know what."

"So young," she said with a chuckle, earning a fierce glare.

"Oh, and I'd also like to negotiate for some tailor services."

Sooooo glad I don't have to wear a uniform! Haaahaaaaaaaa! I love this badass coat though. It's like, this somewhat thin and moveable overcoat, but it can billow in the wind and look super intimidating but is actually still feasible in combat. Plus I've got black gloves and the coat can kiiiind of conceal the railgun.

Man, this is great.

Can't say so much the same for the other dude. I mean, he's wearing the uniform and eyeing me a little cautiously as is the person with us. I can't blame them, though. I was technically considered a humanoid Nova thing a few days ago. Being in an enclosed space with something like that tends to make you jumpy.

"Ah… Bright-san…?"

I'll forgive the fact he can't exactly pronounce my name the way a native English speaker might.

"Eh? What is it, Kazuya-san? Also, I told you, you can just call me Kurt or Gig, no honorific needed. With what I've done before in my past… heh, I don't think I really deserve an honorific."

Plus they're going to get in the way. And I'd like to quickly establish myself as someone the others should stay the hell away from.

"I just thought to check if you're okay. You haven't said a word this entire trip."

"I'm a pretty private person, if you'll excuse that. I'm not exactly one for small talk." I say back as if that's some sort of empirical truth.

The trip ends up being fairly quiet for me, but soon enough we get to the school, where apparently there's currently a battle going on. And you know what that means?

The entire school is a battleground.

Oh my God, I love this school already. Do I get to compete?! Let me just answer that with four words: Hell the fuck yes.

Unfortunately for me, I'm immediately sent to the medical bay. Damn.

"I have a feeling you're itching for combat," says the head scientist, turning around in her chair. She's blonde with short hair, dressed in a labcoat and dressed for business underneath with… another freaking large chest that I swear has to cause backpain. "But I wanted to talk first, Kurt Bright. By the way, my name is Ritsuko Motome."

The lights go out, making me think I'm suddenly in an interrogation room. She's probably just disabled a lot of recording devices or something.

"Your Freezing is bullshit."

"Oh damn, caught already?"

"The usual things that appear don't for you. And really? No denial?"

"I wanted to hear your theory."

"Well, I've only managed to figure out you can't use a Freezing, but at the same time manage to negate them. I'd like to know how. I believe it to be related to magnetism judging by your man portable railgun."

"…What do you plan to do with this information?"

She crosses her arms. "I want to understand."

"I see. Not that you'll be able to replicate what I can do, anyway. I'm an electrokinetic. I can control electrons and magnetic fields. The Freezing field as you call it is a magnetic field that is so strong with its force that it can keep objects in place. As you can tell, I can control magnetic fields and thusly, create one to push back on the Nova's. I apply this by launching an object in my magnetic field with such velocity that the field's effect on it doesn't diminish the energy transferred to the target to ineffective levels. Your Limiters have a limited use of my abilities, being only able to craft fields that negate a Nova's, whereas I can create any number of fields for my usage."

"…Wow."

"Like I said, you can't replicate it. Nor can you disprove me, nor prove me. As far as you know, I may have been sent to deceive you by creating something that sounds possible."

"Covering your bases, I see. Well, I disabled any listening devices in here, if that's what you're wondering."

"Still, it can't hurt to double check. So… can I go and fight now?"

"Well… I suppose that the best way to gather data on you would be to send you into the fray of things. No one's been told so far of the rather… infamous Male Pandora being transferred here, besides the staff who have kept it under wraps."

"Can I check my file, by the way? I just want to know what I'm listed as."

"They've labeled you a rare hybrid of sorts. Male. Able to manifest both Pandora abilities and Limiter abilities."

"Which means…?"

"Well, you'll probably be pursued by men and women. Not to mention we've got to do testing on you for Limiter abilities as well, seeing that you are a male. It might make for a good cover story, saying you're your own Limiter."

"Ah, crap."

"Not inclined for pairs? That's useful to note. Now, I suppose there's no time like the present. Get going, then. Things should be… fairly interesting now."

"EAT THIS!"

The blonde girl, who's currently in a very precarious situation due to the fact Kazuya, the goddamn idiot he is right now, is hugging her, seeming grumbles. However, the twintailed redhead is forced back as I slide into position as the railgun shot fired right between them stops her from moving forward to take advantage of the fact the blonde is unable to move freely.

Well, I guess I can always impersonate Rider, now that I think about it.

I let the lightning surge all around me, electricity coursing through the air as hold my two arms wide at their stunned faces. "I am Kurt 'Gig' Bright, The Anomaly. I am of the Archer class in this Grail War. It seems fate has conspired to bring us here together to fight at this place. But first, how about simply laying down your arms so I don't have to burninate and electrify my way through everyone?"

"So close on the quotation, Bright-kun." Comes the voice over the PA, chuckling slightly. "You'd be a worthy Archer."

"Aw, gee thanks, Motome-san."

Of course, the other two aren't laughing. Especially the blonde, who shakes off Kazuya, who in turn quickly makes himself scarce.

"Such arrogance." The blonde mutters, shaking her head while pointing her sword at me.

"You think I'd just surrender when I've gotten this close? I'll destroy you. But then again, you're kind of cute. I'll restrain you and then show you just how much you'll regret those words." The redhead twintailed one says with a smirk.

Perfect. I've wanted to test my skills for a while now. It's been a while since I've fought a human that can keep up with me.

I trigger a specific electric current (square wave, if one must know) through my system, activating the Railgun's… other mode.

A blade shoots out from underneath my wrist area and the same material that makes up the sword wraps around my arm. I immediately focus a magnetic field around that blade, then another one of the opposite charge, moving it back and forth in a sinusoidal manner in order to pull the blade back and forth… into a resonating blade.

In my right hand, I call forth the Gigawatt Blade. Electricity shoots out all around me, wrapping me in white and blues. After one step, I let it arc, causing the lights to flicker as I begin walking forward.

"Before we do battle, as I have given you mine, I request your names." I command in a rather arrogant fashion. Man, just put me in a golden suit of armor and start calling everyone mongrels, why don't I?

"…Roland-san."

"Bridget-san?"

"Let us take out this arrogant interloper who would interrupt our battle and declare himself a victor."

Hehheh, all right.

"Not in the mood for introductions? Very well. Then, I, The Maddest of the Mad, Baddest of the Bad, The Killer of Kings and the Destroyer of Worlds will perhaps force you."

Hahaha, it's really nice to cut loose sometimes. And you know, irritate my opponents so they'll be a little more open. After all, it's difficult to deal with an opponent who's constantly taunting and mocking you.

I learn that Bridget's blade is quite heat resistant when it clangs with the Gigawatt Blade. Roland launches several chains at me, but throw myself around and bouncing with Detonation Blasts to weave in and out through them.

However, with my nerve enhancements and the fact I'm probably more used to dealing with humanoid targets, they're easy prey. Not to mention that they are horrible in terms of teamwork.

In fact, I've been using those damned chains to limit the blonde's movements. Not so easy to cut your opponent when you have to weave through chains that I'm reflecting and smacking around now everywhere, isn't it?

"Sorry, but I don't do bondage." I fire back with a smug smile as the blade version of the railgunner easily knocks the attack away.

"Why you...!"

Oh, I can just hear the runes in my head annoying me for my arrogance—

Welp bugger me, those simple chains are chainsaws now. Looks like I made her mad.

Sparks fly as the hallway lights up as I defend against the twin onslaught. Heh, this is nothing to me! Come on, test me with something a little more! Even Guiche with three golems gave me more trouble than this once he rose to his full heights of power!

"Well, it's been fun. Let's just end this now, shall we?

"Master… SPAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARK!"

Why.

Why am I even doing this XD

Well, I hope you enjoyed this little omake. The mayor and Ritsuko were the two OCs I threw in. Mayor won't have anything else to deal with, she just happened to be the authority figure in the city Kurt landed in. Ritsuko was a shout out to Evangelion and mainly there so if I ever do continue this omake series, Kurt has a science/fellow anime/teasing person to deal with .w.

And yes, Kurt can take on two Pandoras. Mainly because he's used to fighting a lot of human targets. It would give him an advantage, no? BUT THEN AGAIN this is an omake. I'm giving myself some leeway in terms of hilarity and ability. (Particularly aligning magnetic fields and Freezing fields, that was just some physics nerds having way too much fun)

Also no, I will not specify what happened with Kurt and Louise in his comment about the succubus lair. I leave that to your imagination XD

I believe the next omake set I'll release focuses on the "Mirrors" set, which is where Kurt meets his gender flipped self. Seeya then!
