Second Coming
Chapter 2: A living legend
Prophet continued to look at the city before him only snapping out of his trance like state when he heard SECOND again "SUIT POWER AT 85% SECONDARY FEATURES BACK ONLINE". Prophet nodded as he turned around to see a still shocked crowd starting to leave the room. He paid them little mind as he observed the rest of the room. It was like a museum set up given the room size and surrounding city he might just be in a museum. As he looked around he saw more Ceph Tech it was mostly pieces of their armor and few broken down weapons. As he kept looking he saw what looked like a Nanosuit ver. 1 a quick scan from SECOND showed him that it was just a replica. He stopped when he felt someone pull on his hand he activated armor mode as he turned and looked down at the little girl he had saved.
She looked a little scared "Th-Thanks for saving me mister." She said a low shaky voice. He nodded as she went back to her mom Prophet couldn't help but think back to when he wondered if the sacrifices were worth it. As he turned back to looking at the room he saw a broken display case with nothing inside. He walked up to it reading the plaque.
"Prophet"
Bearer of the Nanosuit and hero of the Charybdis-Human war
May he rest in peace
"That's a little sick showing off my corpse like that." Prophet thought to himself as he looked back up at the case. He turned around as he heard people run up and stop behind him he turned around to see a police force behind him some of their rifles trained on him some just staring. "Put your hands up and remove Prophet's suit you bastard" one of cops said to him. Prophet crossed his arms "Which one do want me to do?"
"Pardon me?"
"I can only do one of those." Prophet said realizing that he still had armor mode on.
Before the cop could answer another officer put his hand on his gun lowering it. Prophet guessed this one was the man in charge. "I've heard that voice a hundred times on the holo-vids tell me sir what's your name?" The man asked.
"Prophet" Prophet replied flatly. While the main officer seem content with this answer the other still had a questioning look on his face. "Everyone knows his name sir he could easily be lying to us." The other officer said reaimming his gun.
"Then explain why he's in the suit, no one could get that thing off and if he did where is the body underneath?" He asked throwing a glare at the officer. He lowered his weapon at this. Prophet looked at the commanding officer. He had almost a thousand questions running through his head he asked the first one he had.
"What year is it?" Prophet asked bluntly
The officer was a little taken back by the sudden question "It's 2187 CE you've been asleep for a long time Prophet" he said with some sorrow in his voice.
Prophet paused to think about this "140 years…" he thought to himself he had more questions to ask now. An urgent one came to mind "Did the Ceph ever return?" He asked in a stern voice
"No sir we haven't even found a single sign of the Charybdis that says they're still here nor have the other race's" the officer replied.
Prophet's mind stopped when he heard other race's "Other races as in aliens?"
The officer sighed "Look I'm sorry sir but I don't have time to answer your questions even if you are Prophet." He stopped talking and put his fingers up to his helmet. "Yes sir? Yes he's actually…but sir…alright I'll be right there. I'm sorry prophet but would you come with me down to the station?" The officer asked putting his hand back down to his side. Prophet took one look around the room he was in he wasn't sure if he could really trust these men but he didn't know if he could really get out without killing one or two officers. "Sure as long as I get the answers I need." And with that Prophet left behind his glass tomb.
Codex Entry: Charybdis Technology
Charybdis Technology is easily one of the most advance technology found in the galaxy surpassing even reaper tech. Unfortunately most if not all of it is unusable and since most of it is own by the alliance who refuses to research it due to fear of the repercussions. Before The Reaper war there was a specialized top secret group in the STG researching Charybdis Technology in the hope to increase FTL travel. After The Reaper war though all research was put on hold indefinitely.
(A/N: Just here to explain the Codex Entry at the end if I can't fit in a explanation into the story but I still feel like it needs to be explained I'll do a little Codex Entry for it. Hope you're still enjoying the story.)
