Chapter 2: Meetings –Yet_Another_Annoyance.
(Dream sequence, Takeru's POV)
Where am I?
I was in my room, if I remember well…
Whose room is this? This isn't mine, because I could not have died during the surgery, could I?
Ugh, what's with this awful smell?
It smells like charcoaled meat…
I get out of the room that I woke up in and then I get to nearest door
Wha… what's this!?
There is no one here!
This seems to be a city, I don't recognize it at all, but it looks that a hellish firefight happened here, there are buildings that look like if a Destroyer-class came through them, there aren't any BETA here, are they?
I look up on a whim and saw the sky, it looks like a storm came recently, there are very dark clouds, and that doesn't help me see because of that black sun…
Wait a minute… black sun, what the hell?
This can't be Japan! Hell this can't even be Earth! Black Sun? That cannot be physically possible!
Haaa... calm down Takeru, calm down… you have been transported to a world where aliens threaten to eradicate humanity and now you are afraid of a black sun?
…
…
…
Of course I am!
I finally notice the clothes I'm wearing, some worn out jeans, with several rips, a blue shirt with something spilled on it (blood?), some worn out sneakers, which seem to have been used to walk a long trip from something... or run. There is also a leather bag, but I can't open it.
I decide to walk down by the street, there are lots of dried blood patches over the entire place, and there are some piles of ash, there is a lot of ash in the air, and it feels really cold.
The road is blocked ahead by an impressive multiple car collision that makes a huge tower of wreckage, there is lots of blood, but, why aren't there any corpses left?
I must find out where I am and how to get back to my world.
Xxxxxxxxxx
(One hour later, still in dream)
Zee… Haaa... zeee… haaa
God, but this city is big!
It's almost three times bigger as Hiiragi town! Not to mention that half of it is in ruins! There are lots of piles of ash and blood, I have been running like crazy at full speed for an hour but I haven't found someone yet!
Are? There is someone in the pile of cars over there!
As I get closer, I notice the person, is it… a girl?
She's sitting on top of the pile of cars, obviously not having noted my presence, must not be older than Kasumi, but what is she wearing?
A ragged leather coat with lots of blood covering various parts of the coat, some jeans, and her hair looks like… Sumika's?
That cannot be possible, Sumika should be the same age as me, but this girl has a striking resemblance to her, her hair is black, but has a hint of crimson, she has no ribbon, but bears a short hair, and it looks rather messy, I dunno why, but she reminds me of someone…
She has something in her hand, is that a gun? It looks huge in her little hand.
"You have finally arrived, Shirogane Takeru" she tells me in an empty voice, there is no emotion. She turns around and I am left speechless. Those eyes! The grey and crimson combination on her eyes, the same as Edward's! Are they related?
"Yes, we were" ah, okay… wait, did she just read my mind? How…?
"I forge the casualty in this world, and also can affect others, just like your mate" is she talking about Sumika? Why is she calling her my mate? We aren't…
"Don't try to deny what its already obvious (Geh!) But I did not call you here for this messy chit-chat, I only did it because her request…" who is she talking about? I´m lost here.
"I will leave you to talk to him, okay?" she addresses someone, but who? I'm the only one here; I see that her expressions change, into warmer, happier ones.
"Heeh… so you are the one Sumika is always thinking about?" so she knows Sumika! But how? She hasn't been resuscitated in this loop
"She was here, there are lots of people where I was, Shirogane-san, I only created this enclosed space for us to talk in private" Talk? With me? What for?
Her voice changes, a mix of regret, guilt, and longing come along with her words
"A favor, Shirogane-san (Eh?) please help him, because he will help you, don't worry for Sumika's mind, that I will ensure she regains some of her sanity back, although you won't like how that will be"
"Wait a minute, what are you talk…?"
*ROAR!*
What was that?
"Here they come, they won't stop until I get back, seems that we could not finish the topic this time, Shirogane-san" who is she talking about again?
Wait… what are those things? The... ash piles are… turning into something!
"hey, what's going on?" my question goes unnoticed as the girl raises the pistol(?) in the direction one of the transforming piles and starts shooting at them.
"I will get you out of here, you must return to your reality! You cannot let yourself be caught be them!" she makes a desperate face and starts shooting at the piles of ash, now transformed into humanoid black monsters, they have three vicious orange eyes and their hands are claws.
"No way! What are those things?" I don't have any weapons! I seriously need some; those things are dangerous, that I can say!
"Langoliers, the keepers of time and space… if they get you, your very existence will be erased" What?
"Don't just stand in there! Go! (Where?) Next area, come on I'll get you there" the leaps down from the pile of cars where she was shooting, took my hand and started sprinting.
"Uwaaaaa!" I can't believe this! Too fast! My arm will come ooooofffffff!
"There it is! The portal!" whaaa! That's a vortex! I will be maimed to death is I go there!
"Oh no! They are here!" what? Who? O my… but those things are horrible! Humanoid in shape, those incredibly long claws and the orange eyes, they gave an aura of pure killing intent! The girl suddenly raised her other hand and aimed her pistol (?) to them and started firing.
"GO! (Eh?) The portal! Go through! They are coming for you, I will be fine! (Wait..!) No time! You are essential for the change of that world of yours! You and Edward are the only hope to defeat the BETA!"
"Just… what is your name?" I decide to ask her before I jump into the vortex, which is slowly closing.
"Don't tell him you talked to me, ok?" uwaaaaa! Wait! Why did you push me! I wasn't ready yet!
Then, as I fell through the void, words filled with infinite melancholy and longing, nostalgia and regret filled my mind before my mind blacked out
"My name is… Melissa Radikov…"

(October 26th, 2763, morning) (Odyssey's Medical Section, Room No. 117)(Takeru's POV)
Ughh….
My whole body hurts…
It hurts even more than the time all the girls in my squad made a full combo on me and left me to die in one of the restrooms of the base…
Where am I?
Is this… my room?
I remember… going to my room… then Yamato telling me about something… then we went in together… then he told me to inhale some mist coming from a mask…
I reach my hand to scratch the back of my head nervously and notice that there is some strange… thing on it. It feels like metal, yet soft and warm at the same time, what the hell?
I see that I'm in my underwear, better change before roll call
"You seem to have woken up, Subject S-2201 " a voice comes out of nowhere, scaring the shit out of me, seriously, what the hell is going on?
"over here, in the night table" I follow the voice and notice that it comes from a little device next to the night lamp, there is what seems to be the figure of a woman, in her mid-thirties I would guess, shoulder-long hair and she's wearing a long coat similar to the one that Mikoto's dad uses, she is a pretty woman, that would be my comment about her in a normal situation, but the thing that doesn't makes this normal is that she is made of light, and her voice sound somehow artificial.
"Greetings, I am the A.I. assigned to watch over all Project: REDJACKET subjects; my name is Lily, pleased to meet you, S-2201. Welcome to the UIPNG (United InterPlanetary Nations Government) Odyssey" Eh? A.I.? What the…?
"Ah, sorry, it seems that the anesthetics haven't worn off? Haven't they? Your bio-stats seem erratic, I recommend the use of the phase 0 RISSA" eh? Ah, the suit Yamato told me about last time, I almost forgot.
"I will mark a location in your R-HUD, if you would follow the directions to get there, Major Radikov is in there along with the rest of his squad" wait…! Ah she logged off.
Too fast! Am I in a spaceship! The only one I have been is the XG-70 Susanoo in orbital drop, but this! This is entirely different! Amazing!
Ah, a map, there is a location marked on it. Hmm… holo-training room 4B, and there is even a quick route highlighted, ok let's head there.
Xxxxxxxxxxxxx
(One hour and a half later)
Finally! I'm here! Man, but this ship is huge! I can't believe I had to take two trams and a bus-like transport to get here!
Holographic Training Room 4B, ok. There are several people in here, most are using the same armor as I am, others, a bulkier version, it's a group of several boys and girls, must be around my age, everyone is staring at the screen in front of them, seems they haven't noticed me.
"Oh? The newbie is here" a girl with short-boyish flame-like chestnut hair with striking green eyes clad in an equally eye-catching black and sapphire colored armor suddenly speaks and everyone in the room turns to see me, their eyes are different yet similar, crimson in the area closest to the pupil and some other colors in the outer area "Hello, my name is Ileana I-2086, welcome to the Heaven's Strykers, you must be the Major's most recent pickup" ah, Hahaha… she is very nice…
"Guys… where are your manners? Some of you were like this before, remember?" several of the people here flinched, why is that? "Forgive them… Erhm, sorry, I haven't even asked your name yet"
"First Lieutenant Shirogane Takeru S-2201" that name flowed out of my lips almost automatically, weird
"Hoo… more Japanese, Heh? I wonder if the major has some kind of fetish on that" wait, what? "Anyways, our Haruna-chan won't be feeling so lonely anymore, but don't get any hopes, she's already the Major's (I-Ileana-san!) ara, sorry" this girl… give me an awfully familiar aura, like if my kingdom could be in danger just by being near her…
I turned towards the girl that Ileana-san addressed, she noticed I was looking for her and came over me "Hello! My name is Hongo Haruna H-3710, nice to meet you!" her voice is cheerful, but years of experience in the military have taught me to identify the tone behind what is spoken, I feel a lot of sadness… almost as if she had lost someone she loved…
"L-likewise, Hongo-san"
"Are?, don't be so stiff, Takeru-kun, I know that being in the military so suddenly is kinda weird, call me by my given name, neh? Otherwise it feels like we are enemies to the death…" she smiled… oh… what's with that smile that makes me shiver…
"don't be so clingy in the newbie, Kuu-san, you are going to make him die of blood loss" a tall male intervenes… Are? What is he talking about…? Blood loss? Uwah!, why is my nose bleeding in front of all these people!
"ah, sorry, my name is Kuero K-9864, pleased to meet you" this guy… gives an incredible aura, like he might slash you at any moment if you are careless…
"my, my, Kuero, you are intimidating him so soon? You never got over the major defeating you the first time he met you in your Altverse, did you? (Geh! So cruel, lieutenant) " eh? What was she saying…?
"Second Lieutenant Sarah S-7295, at your service" whoa she looks so professional
"there are more of us in the team, but currently they are over the mess hall having dinner, so no surprise, we're here just for entertainment"
"entertainment? Then, what were you watching before I arrived?" everyone here made an incomprehensible expression then started shouting
"son of a…. I completely forgot! Ileana, did you turned on the recorder!" Sarah-san, is she really a maiden?
"I thought it was supposed to be Kuero's job!"
"ME?! I was never told something like that! Haruna! Did you know about this?"
"awawawawawa… Kuero-san, I didn't… please, everyone don't fight…"
I should probably stay out of this, but what were they watching?
Ara, there is a screen over there with something on it

…
What the hell!
What's with these scores! They are too over the top! And even number one! I can't even read that number! It's way too large! Edward! Are these really what you people can do?!
"Ara, Takeru-kun, are you ok? You are pale… ah, you saw that"
"ehm… Haruna-san, are you like Edward? I mean… an HeavenStryker?" I need to know, those scores are not physically possible for humans.
"eh? Aren't you too? When did you wake up from the grinder? ( Grinder?) you know, the augmentations procedures, we call them 'the Grinder' because of the pain it causes after its finished" ah, s that why I felt so awful this morning… wait was it morning?
"ehm… Haruna-san… could you tell me what time is it?"
"hmm? There is a clock in the lower-right area of your R-HUD (Retinal Heads Up Display)"
"ah, ok" lower… to the right... there are two dates displayed in there
Ship's Date: 1400 Hrs. October 29th 2763 (UIPNG Military Calendar)
Current Altverse Date: 0230 Hrs. October 26th 2001 (Civilian Calendar)
…
…
…
What! How! Only two hours have passed in my world when in here it's been almost three days!
"There is a discrepancy on the subjective temporary flow between our time and that of your altverse, S-2201" who said that?! "That was me, Lily; did you forget me from this morning? You seriously lack manners, I will notify the Major for some reeducation program" what just happened? And what does she means with reeducation program?
"ara, did lily just picked you as her new trolling victim?" Ileana-san asks me
"yeah, I feel an odd sense that she would get along with someone of my old squad" and by that someone I mean you, 1st Lieutenant Munakata Misae and 2nd Lieutenant Kashiwagi Haruko
Xxxxxxxx
(somewhere in Yokohama Base)
*ACHOO!* x2
'ara, did these two catch a cold? Is it even possible?' [ AN: Japanese say that idiots don't get colds… or so I have heard… PM me if I'm wrong…] Hayase Mitsuki wonders, amazed that the two people on top in her 'will never catch a cold' list have just sneezed
"are you two okay?" 2nd Lieutenant Kazama Touko asked her friend (Munakata) with s serious voice
"its too early for a cold… maybe someone is talking stuff behind your back?" Suzumiya Akane wonders aloud
"who knows? Maybe they gained the wrath of someone" Mitsuki wonders 'and I hope to meet whoever it is soon' she made a face that could make even the bravest HeavenStryker to be scared… (Edward being counted)
'just what are they talking about?' Captain Isumi Michiru made an implied facepalm in her mind [AN: for your intel, an implied facepalm is when something is so fucking retarded that a full facepalm is not even necessary]
Xxxxxxxxxxx
(Back to the Odyssey) (Takeru's POV)
…
Brrr…
I got chills…
I hope it won't get me in the future [AN: sorry Takeru, but this fanfic autor-sama will make sure it does, mwahahahaha… *Kinda scary grin*]
I slowly got away from the rest of the Stryker team, because their discussion earlier is turning dangerous, I saw 2nd Lieutenant Hongo try to calm the situation, but it seems hopeless…
"etto… where is Edward?" I haven't seen him in all day, and I'm not sure of finding him in this crazy spaceship
"the Major? He's in there testing some new toys he put together last night" Kuero answers with a weird expression
"Toys? Those couldn't be toys, something with a 36mm chaingun and a 120mm launcher is not a toy, it could be considered to the Hrunting/Yggdrasil PADS (Prototype Armor Defense System) we have in the hangars, he also said we would be using those soon, so…" Sarah-san is getting all-technical… my head is starting to hurt…
"Maybe we are going against some big sons-a-bitches enemies or he just is getting addicted to power?" Ileana-san, what are you talking about?
"maybe, he even bought those weird looking mechas with him, that blue one with the fin on its head, the grey fatty looking one and the purple weapon-like one…" mechas? Are they talking about TSF? Do they know about them?
"what did he called them? Hmm… something like… Type-97 Fubuki, XFJ-01 Shiranui Second Phase 2, Type-00R Takemikazuchi, Su-47E Berkut, F22A Raptor EMD Phase 2… are? Shirogane-san? What's wrong? You seem to be a little pale…"
"It's nothing, Sarah-san, just a little bit dizzy…" This guy! Aside from the Fubuki and that Shiranui whatever… how could he get the top three TSF in the world! And what does he need them for? "anno… Ileana-san, Sarah-san, when did the Major get those mechas?"
"hmmm… it was the day he brought you to the ship for your final augmentations… so like three days ago?" what?! Then… "if you are wondering how much time passed in your Altverse… it would be like… I dunno… 3 minutes?"
…
…
…
WTFH?! [Meaning: What in the fucking hell?]
How?! In only three minutes he got those five TSF? And where did he get them from? Aww… I hope this doesn't affect our plans…
"Shirogane-san, you have a very funny expression right now (I see…) hmm? What is it? (ah, its nothing, really, Hongo-san) Muu… I told you to call me by my name… (s-sorry)"
"We came here to see the results of his work… the only things that interrupted him were lunch break and when he went over to your room to supervise your augmentations procedures (Really?) yup, you know… I've only seen him putting that 'so worried' face he had while checking on you when he supervised the augmentations of both Haruna and Haruka (Haruka?) 2nd Lieutenant Aozora Haruka, Number 14 in the HeavenStryker Ranking system, she's like a twin of Haruna here (Ileana-san!) yup, even using the same methods to try to seduce the Major… (geh!) ara, did I nailed it?"
"you… I will definitely get you in the next simulation training!" oh… seems like Haruna-san's anger is over the top…
"ah… it has begun" Kuero nonchalantly remarks, that guy… how can he be so calm in this situation
""Really?!"" wait, what? They stopped fighting just like that? How much influence does Edward have on them?
"*Sigh*, those girls…" Sarah-san seems like she is really disappointed of something… or rather someone…
"what are you going to watch?" it's been nagging me for a little while…
"it's just the Major's work, if he invested so much time on it, its gotta be good, after all, it was him who unlocked those levels above Phase 4 ALPSA" … Eh?
"why that face? Don't tell me… you haven't been given the basic briefing? (n-no) haaa… that Edward… really, sometimes he can be awesome, but in these cases he's a complete idiot" is she really talking like that about her superior?
"hey! Sarah! Takeru! Hurry up and come or you are gonna miss this!" Haruna-san.. that too loud.. my ears are ringing
"kid… if you have any questions after the Major has given you the BB (Basic Briefing), feel free to ask me (T-thank you) don't mention it, I've promised myself to train thoroughly any fresh blood we get in the team (…) then, let's get going" fresh blood…? Uhhhh…
We got near one of the screens and it started transmitting, really, this is awesome stuff
Then a robotic voice starts announcing
"Training Type A CUSTOM, Difficulty: Godly Madness, approx. number of spawning enemies ratio: 14000/1 minute, type of enemies: Custom, Enemies' race: BETA, training simulation starts in 20 seconds"
…
…
…
What… the hell…
"Really?" (Kuero)
"is he insane?" (Haruna)
"Maybe the limiter has been losing effectiveness" (Sarah)
*Shrugs* "dunno" (Ileana)
""""Let's just leave it at that""""
Wait… what?
"Exercise: Start!"
…
…
What... is… that?
There is a weird TSF-like mecha in the middle of the arena
It looks like the result of a wild night between a Fubuki and a Takemikazuchi, after being in a helluva party…
But in the middle of the mishmash of those, I can faintly see traces of the Raptor and what I suppose was the Berkut… but what amazed me was the head…
The whole Mecha was black with red details, but the head had an unusual shape that made the hair in the back of my neck to stand, the Takemikazuchi is just a little toy for babies to play next to this machine, this one was the True God of War.
It was carrying a weapon that almost looked like an assault cannon, but while most TSF weapons had their human-sized counterpart, I could not recognize this one [AN: imagine a TSF sized version of the Enhanced F88 Austeyr with the corresponding TSF 120mm Cannon attachment]
"This is Major Edward Radikov, initiating recording, prototype number two's first exercise is about to begin, I've decided to name it this brand the TSF GEN 5 - Prototype A1- IZANAGI/EXCALIBUR"
Izanagi… Excalibur…
"aren't those the names of both a really powerful god from Japanese mythology and the strongest holy sword?" Ileana-san, despite your looks, you are surprisingly informed… kind of. [AN: She is designed to look like a certain battle maniac *cough*MitsukiHayase*cough*]
"I think so… but that shape… except for the head… doesn't it reminds you of someone?" Kuero asks everyone, but I honestly have no idea"
…
…
…
*still the stupid silence since everyone's brains are rebooting themselves*
""""NIRVASH!"""" [AN: the Nirvash Neo from Eureka 7 AO, the RAV Nirvash paintjob just… sucked]
What could they be talking about?
Ah, the mech now grabbed a Sword from its left mount pylon; it's a silver-white longsword with some red sorts of lines on its blade, the blade was kind of thick near the hilt, then the blade was a bit thinner and an area where it was almost a fourth of the thickness that of the thickest area
"Hooo… it seems he hasn't forgotten about my world? That blade… the X-SC7" Kuero… what are you talking about, I'm completely lost in here [AN: basically it's the X-SC2 from Infinity Blade, an iOS game for those who don't know about that series, it's quite good]
"Haaa? Not fair! How come he never allowed us to use them whenever we asked him for it and he told us 'no using it until a truly dire situation'? and yet he is using it in a simulation!" Ileana-san I think that's beside the point.
Ah, its begun.
Izanagi boost jumps immediately at the horde of BETA coming at him, he starts spraying the Grapplers with the 36mm as he comes loser, the Destroyer are running at full speed but incredibly for the size of that machine (about three feet taller an one feet wider than the Takemikazuchi) evades them rather easily, jumping just in front of them and riding one of the Destroyer for a second before attaching grenade-look-alike to its back and then flying forward, then the grenade went off with an explosion big enough to engulf the BETA around it in a 18 meter radius from its objective.
The machine, then attached the Sword it had in its left hand back to the mount pylon, and pulled out a second assault cannon, similar yet different to the first one that it was currently wielding in its right hand [AN: this one looks like the SAR-21A]
The machined then started firing around, utterly decimating the BETA near it, now it materialized some shoulder-mounted weaponry… how the hell? Oh, it's just a simulation; I forgot… it just looks… so real
The weapon mounted near the right shoulder is a six barreled HMG [Heavy machine gun] and on the other shoulder it's what I think is a 120mm cannon, the long and thick barrel clearly shows that it was designed for improving the power from the shell that it fires.
Izanagi then faces against a group of Fort-Class, surrounded by the smaller strains, I can even see the details of the seemingly little Tank-class coming out of their bellies (which even after seeing them to that countless times during my loops… watching it in HD is really… disturbing
The 120mm roars as it begins unleashing a wave of destruction against the Tank-class surrounding the Fort-class and opening a path for Izanagi to swamp the rifle in its right hand for the blade I saw before, and beginning a combo that ultimately cut the Fort-class' head in tiny pieces, spraying its blood all around the Beta coming closer to it
The HMG starts spinning and delivering a rain of death, coupled with the assault cannons that Izanagi was now holding, it literally cuts the horde in two, and even the Destroyer-class are having difficulty getting near the machine as the bullets being fired from it are seemingly all AP rounds [AN: for those unfamiliar with this, it stands for Armor Piercing rounds], perfectly penetrating the hard frontal shell and reaching what lied beneath it, quickly killing them before they got the chance to get near the machine.
The 120mm then finishes what it seemed to be reloading and cooling down, then joins its brothers (?) in the horrifying assault, heck, I almost felt pity for the BETA, even though this was a simulation.
A lucky Grappler got near Izanagi and brought down one of its forearm to the machine, only for a fraction of second Izanagi managed to avoid it, but lost the assault cannon on its left hand, the 120mm quickly took care of this poor Grappler, turning it into mincemeat
A supply canister was nearby, and it opened when Izanagi got closer to it to reveal another weird looking assault cannon, this one seemed to have a longer and heavier barrel, then it stated firing in three-round bursts, killing lots of BETA with impressive accuracy [AN: haa… this one… it's the BR85HB SR from Halo 4]
From here on the battle turned kind of monotone, an endless cycle of aiming, shooting, moving, reloading, slicing, in whichever order they came. Izanagi vastly overwhelmed any of our TSF, even me piloting could not compare to it, of course we needed to remember who was piloting it, but from how it moved, it seemed kind of… jerky… was something bothering the pilot?
Xxxxxxxxxxx
(Inside the prototype machine, at the time of the simulation) (Yamato's POV)
"awawawawa… three Heavy Lasers to the left!"
I know! I made Izanagi move to the right and used the overload function of the 120mm M250 Hyperion Recoilless Rifle installed in the left shoulder to make the shell accelerate 700% that of its original speed and aim for the group of Heavy laser.
The AP-HE/I (Armor piercing- high explosive/incendiary) shell digs itself deep into the HLC (Short for Heavy Laser class) in the middle of the three, the monster closes its eys but only manages to amplify the effect of the explosion, not to mention the napalm rain that follows it, burning the other HLCs to crisp in seconds
While all this happened, I was bisecting an FC's (Fort class) legs with the X-SC7 energized blade, parrying the stinger with it and finally giving its head a Panda Bear hug of death (basically: getting a hold of its head and using the armament on my shoulders and mount pylons to make it a bloody alien Swiss cheese)
"Ya-chan! Grappler horde incoming! ETA 18 seconds!"
I see them! And don't call me with that stupid nickname, Sumika!
Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
I will update part two ASAP, there are more surprises to come
