Ciao tutti! Thanks for the reviews. It makes me keep going. I wasn't sure if I should keep going but I decided, oh heck I love Xenosaga and I am happy I am making my mark in the Xenosaga world.

Shion P.O.V
I sat awkwardly at the table with chaos, Jr. and Jin. I should've listened to chaos when he told me my eyes were puffy. I really didn't want them to worry. I have to be strong. I have to be strong for Kevin, for mom, for dad, and…for KOS-MOS. She is going to just fine. I sighed. Jr. took my plate and began eating it and Jin was looking amused. chaos was making sure Jr. didn't choke. I heard my communicator buzz. I opened it up. I saw Allen.
"Chief, come to Second Division, quick!" Allen said. He was quite flustered.
"Calm down, tell me what's going on?" I asked.
"Do you not see the Gnosis?" Allen asked.
"What? Gnosis? On Second Miltia?" I asked. I was shocked. Jr. stopped eating for a second a pulled out his guns.
"Heh, those bastards are going down." Jr. smirked.
"We have no Hilbert Effect, or and D.S.S.S weapons. We are pretty much screwed." I told them.
"Don't worry. We've dispatched KOS-MOS." Allen said.
"What? She's not combat ready yet! She's been through enough." I told him. I was worried for KOS-MOS' sake. This was strange. Why did the Gnosis appear all of a sudden? What's going on?
"You're joking! Without her, we're all gonna die!" Allen screamed. The red lights were flashing in the office Allen was sitting in. This situation must be urgent. I thought.
"Okay." I surrender. I stood up. Jin looked at me. "Allen…be safe and…protect everyone at Second Division." I said. I closed the communication before he could respond. I walked to the door.
"Shion! You cannot seriously consider going outside!" Jin called.
"I can't sit down and do nothing." I said. chaos and Jr. ran up and flanked my sides. Jin reluctantly followed us while getting his sword ready. I opened the door and there was a mess. Gnosis everywhere. I gasped. chaos covered my mouth. The Gnosis didn't detect us yet. I closed my eyes. I summoned my M.W.S and prepared myself for the case of combat.
KOS-MOS P.O.V
Shion was in danger. My prime objective is to protect all Vector personal, but ensuring that Shion is safe is the top priority. As I lay in my maintenance bed, I sensed the Gnosis. Immediately I overrode all safety programs and commenced auto-restart mode. I rose slowly and activated my Hilbert Effect. I sensed the Gnosis outside the building so that is where I headed. at maximum speed, I ran. I got outside and recognized the heat signatures of two familiar life forms. One of them was a Realian, and the other was a cyborg.
"KOS-MOS?" MOMO asked. Ziggy was by her side. They were back to back, trying to take out the Gnosis. MOMO had her ether bow and Ziggy was using various weapons that seemed to be ineffective.
"Yes." I responded. "It is me. Disabling auto safety. Destroy all targets." I jumped into the air and prepared to use X-BUSTER. I bent down and allowed the beam crystal to shoot out of my back. "Preparing to eliminate enemy units. Charging." I launched the attack at maximum output and succeeded in absorbing the Gnosis. I fell from the sky and Ziggy caught me. "Thank you for catching me, though the action was not necessary, but appreciated."
"You're welcome. Let's team up and find Shion and the others. I'm worried." Ziggy said.
"Yes. I'll do my best." MOMO smiled. I briefly calculated the outcome of my mission to get to Shion with the help of these two. Instead of 84.996% it dropped down 10.996% but with the assistance of MOMO, it was no 79% of a success. It was not that low of a drop. The 100-series observational realian was quite useful.
"Affirmative. Shion is in the city district near a café. chaos, Jr. and another person with the same DNA as Shion is there." I told them. They nodded.
"Let's go then!" MOMO said. I saw her determination. I started running and they followed me. We ran into a bunch of Gnosis. My body still has to recharge from using the X-BUSTER. I looked at Ziggy and he got what I was thinking. We both placed a couple punches and then we crossed paths together.
"CROSS FIST!" We said simultaneously. The first Gnosis was down.
"Meteor Storm!" MOMO shouted. She sent a bunch of meteors down on the Gnosis. A Goblin recoiled and rammed its fist into her. "Ouch." She shook her head and then recoiled against the Gnosis. She sent a single ether arrow into its stomach. "I'm built pretty tough." Ziggy looked at her. A hint of concern flashed across his face. He ran to another.
"Hellfire!" He jumped in the air with flames surrounding him, and then tackled the Hydra-like Gnosis. The hydra absorbed the attack. I bailed him out.
"R-CANNON!" I said and shot it down. I then transferred my F-SCYTHE and jumped into the air and with a simple slash, all the Gnosis were eliminated. "All systems…cleared." I continued the pursuit and soon found my way to Shion. There was a giant boss Gnosis.
"KOS-MOS!" Shion shouted in acknowledgement.
"I request all of your assistance in destroying the enemy unit." I said. They all nodded and we faced the enemy. chaos and Jr. stood protectively in front of Shion and the other person seemed to be coaching her.
"You ruined my lunch! So, eat this! Last Symphony!" Jr. began rapidly shooting the Gnosis. chaos had the same idea.
"Lunar Seal! I will protect everyone!" He sent a shockwave to the Gnosis.
"Spell Ray!" Shion called. The eye formed and she sent a huge beam attack to the Gnosis. The recoil sent her flailing into the kimono wearing sword guy. My database was updated. The description of him was the same as the description Shion told me about a Jin Uzuki. So that is who that was. I focused on the target. It was highly unnecessary for me to worry about Shion's family. I walked over the giant Gnosis.
"Ether Drive!" I shouted. I lowered the enemy's ether defense wish made chaos and MOMO look at me. They exchanged a glance and proceeded to combine their ether abilities. Shion ran over to me in midst of all the commotion. I blinked.
"KOS-MOS, are you okay?" Shion wrapped her arms around me.
"I have suffered approximately 35% damages to my external frame. I am however still operational." I told her. "If we engage in a double attack, there is a high probability that the Gnosis will be defeated with both of our beam attacks."
"Good idea KOS-MOS. Are you ready?"
"Yes Shion." I bent down and felt the familiar beam crystal shoot out of my back once again. Shion stood behind me with her M.W.S aimed at the crystal. I opened the protection o my abdomen and prepared.
"DOUBLE BUSTER!" Shion shot the M.W.S and hit the beam crystal which both attacks formed to be the most powerful beam attack possible for anyone in the group.
"The enemies have been exterminated." I said. I did a quick analysis of the surrounding area.
"KOS-MOS, we did it." Shion said softly. She wobbled on her feet a little. I sensed her body getting weaker. I walked over and caught her before she hit the ground. All of the others looked at us.
"Shion?" Jr. called. He ran over to us, followed by chaos, Jin, MOMO, and Ziggy in that exact order.
"What happened?" chaos asked. He lowered himself on to the ground and I placed Shion on his lap sensing that was why he was down there.
"Hang on, let me check…" MOMO said. She closed her eyes momentarily. "Her pulse is lowering. Mystic powers, grant me a miracle." MOMO's ether seemed to have no effect. "I was positive that that would work."
"It's okay MOMO. KOS-MOS, do you know why she collapsed?" Jr. asked me. He was comforting the pink-haired realian.
"Judging by my emotion module, Shion seemed to be showing signs of fatigue and stress since we first invaded the Song of Nephilim. She seemed on the verge of collapse ever sense we have left Proto Merkabah." I told them. Jr. looked at me.
"I told her not to come." Jr. said simply. "If she listened, none of this would have happened.
"Don't be so hard on yourself Jr., Shion would have come anyway and besides, her pulse is quickening. She should wake up at any minute." chaos said.
"I don't think its fatigue." Jin said.
"Huh? What do you mean?" MOMO asked.
"I can't quite put my finger on it, but I know it's not stress or fatigue." Jin said. He had an expression of confusion, and worry.
"Whatever the cause, we'd best get inside. Lest, we have to worry about any more invading Gnosis." I suggested.
"KOS-MOS is right. Let's go back inside the café." chaos said. He stood up and supported Shion's body with his. Jr. took her other side. We all followed after.
