Hello people, this SignalHunter again and today this chapter will be a type of sneak peek or intermission for what BLADE will be facing. This won't spoil the story that much, only give sneak peeks of certain bosses or enemies the group will face in the upcoming chapters (Once this story is going that is.) and to make something to entertain you when I continue to wait for more OCs. I actually gotten some good news, I received another OC and it will be the last male OC, so if you want to submit an OC for a division in BLADE, it's got to be female. 3 slots for them, so take your time and work hard on your OC for a chance to get a spot. Anyways, onto the preview for "C".
I do not own anything except for my OC and his custom model along with any custom units that appear in this chapter.
[Unknown Location]
It was pitch black for anyone to point out where this place was, but that didn't matter as a human-sized figure walks around. This person pulls out something which is revealed to be a GP Base it glows red as it plays a message log.
C: Are the preparations complete?
Nine: Indeed they are, you remember the mission?
C: Infiltrate the system and take out any unlucky Builders in it along with the Mocks.
Nine: Correct, just remember we are not destroying the Battle Arena; we need to keep it operational and allow it to send in the "package".
C: Roger that, are the others ready to deploy?
Nine: Just contacted them, they know what to do, now go do your job.
The log ends there as a garage door is heard opening. It was nighttime outside, but the figure was in a large red jacket with a hood covering the head and face as the person begin to walk out. Several more people in different colored jackets were also walking out with the red jacket person. It was relatively quiet outside with very few onlookers on site. The small group's destination was a large convention center that was designed for large scale Model Battles and events. The center was currently being used by PPSE for testing the new Battle Arenas in preparation for an "event". Several police were watching the perimeter as one officer noticed the group and heads to stop their advance.
"Hold it right there, you aren't supposed to be here, turn around right now." The officer said with a stern face before a bullet enters his forehead as he looked in shock before falling down and dies.
The jackets come off as the unknown figures are revealed to be what seems to be soldiers wearing combat suits made for espionage or infiltration with a light Kevlar vest and they had double filtered gas masks with tri-optic night vision goggles and they were glowing blue, but can be only seen by them. The leader was wearing a similar suit, but the night vision goggles were only a double optic and their barrels seem a bit longer than normal. (Think Spectre from Resident Evil: Operation Raccoon City.) The leader was holding a suppressed Glock 17 as it arms itself with a better weapon, which was a suppressed MP5. The leader motions a gesture to the others as they were armed with either suppressed P90s or MP5s to move out. It was a platoon size of 50 as most of them split off into groups of 2 or 3 each. Some of these agents were carrying a sort of briefcase as they open them up. The contents were fixed on and they appear to be a type of jammer as once they were activated, they emitted an irritating noise as nearby, a guard was about to check in with his pager, but couldn't as it emitted that same irritating noise before he found a bullet to his head. The group manages to find several entrances into the convention center through the roof and vents.
[Meanwhile, Inside the convention center]
At the heart of the convention center was a large Battle Arena that was possibly bigger than the one used in 7th Gunpla World Championship. Several PPSE scientists along with test pilots were working on the system when they are given the all clear.
Model Battle: Start Up
Beginning Plavsky Particle Dispersal
The Battle Arena hums to life as the Plavsky Particles begin to form the stage as the test pilots were heading to their pods in a different room. The scientists turn off the Quasi-Personality AI since it was just for testing. The test pilots fully entered their pods as they put on their VR gear and begin to link. Several more PPSE scientists were watching from an observation room above as the test begins.
Battle Arena
-Stage: Former Chinese Shanghai
Several machines start up as their joints are heard moving. The machines start walk as a large hangar bay door opens, showing some light in the dark place. The now lighted room shows a 5-MS squad that consisted of a GM Custom in AEUG designs, was painted grey, and was equipped with an energy shield similar to what the Jackals use in Halo with a standard hyper bazooka from the original Gundam. The second machine was an F-22A Raptor TSF from the Muv Luv Alternative series that was painted white and is armed with a standard loadout for most Japanese TSFs with the exception of a few shoulder mounted weapons that includes a small railgun and missile box and sonic knives replacing the standard knife. The third unit was the Gareth Knightmare from Code Geass that has its arm mounted Hadron Cannons moved to the chest and was holding a spear and a large shield. The forth was an unmodified GM Cannon II White Coral. The fifth one was a Ghost Jegan F that retains the paint job and is equipped with a modified version of the Stark Jegan armor that uses twin railguns instead of missiles.
"All systems green, are we clear to launch?" The pilot of the GM Custom, who was female, asked.
"All set, the Hi-Mocks are ready to deploy too." A scientist said over the comns.
The GM Custom gets on a linear catapult as the other machines behind it follow. The screen gives the all clear as all 5 units are launched out of the hangar. The hangar is revealed to be part of the Clop-Class Light Cruiser in Unicorn colors as on both sides of it are an Irish-Class Battleship and an Arms Fort Giga Base on the waters of the former city. A group of 7 Garuda-Class fly above the small fleet as their back door opens. Several Hi-Mocks walk out of the doors and begin their descent as all of them were equipped with standard beam rifle and shields along with the addition of a beam saber and a chaingun on the left back shoulder. A total of 250 Hi-Mocks were deployed, making it a full Company. The Hi-Mocks land as the hovered on the water, slowly following the Giga Bases along with the slow moving airborne fleet. Meanwhile, the PPSE team was awaiting instructions on the roof of a former skyscraper when they got the order.
"Alright, we will now commence the testing of...wait, hold on a moment, something's wrong, please ho…" The transmission cuts off as the pilots looked confused.
"What's going on? Why did the transmission cut off just like that?" The pilot of Ghost Jegan F, who was male, asked.
Before anyone could answer the pilot's question, the sky turns grey as the pilots receive error signs on their HUDs. The errors clear up as the pilots look in confusion at the new sky before a violet blur emerges from the clouds as it pierces through the lead Garuda as flames engulf it and crashes. The blur heads back into the air as the other Garudas open fire with their laser cannons, but they all miss as several red bullets rain down on one of the transports as the right wing was blown off as it crashes into another transport, causing a massive fireball as it crashes into the water. The flames still remain despite being on the water as the PPSE team takes battle positions. The unknown lands on a nearby building and it is revealed to be a Type-97 Fubuki from the Muv-Luv Alternative series with major modifications to it. The head was replaced with the EF-2000 Typhoon TSF head and was upgraded to have a head-sensor module similar to the Chinese TSFs on the eyes and the large fin on the back of the head was moved to the front and was converted into a type of horn with the mouth area having a set of razor sharp teeth. The body retains the slim look with the addition of twin CIWS on the upper torso. The arms got rid of those handles or whatever they were on the shoulders and were replaced with a type of generator with arm sheaths for knives, and the hands were wearing what seem to be gloves. The side waists were equipped with regular Slash Harkens from Code Geass while the Jump Unit on the back waist remains the same. The legs were replaced with the Type-00 legs with the opened feet along with the addition of thrusters on the back of the legs and roller backs of the soles of the feet. The back retains the weapon racks for the sword and gun, but they moved to the back of the shoulders to make way for a block-like part, possibly an ejection unit. The unit was painted in mostly black with silver lining and the lights and optics were glowing blood red and was spewing dark violet particles, indicating this unit was using a GN Drive Tau, but the drive is nowhere to be seen.
"Who the hell is that? Were we expecting another tester?" The pilot of the F-22A, who was female, asked.
"Most definitely not, stay away from that unit as of right now and send out the Hi-Mocks." The leader said as the team begins to slowly hover away from the newcomer.
"Now ain't that just plain rude? To ignore me and slowly back away to send in your dolls? Didn't your parents tell you about respecting your elders?" An unknown voice that sounded kinda old with a British Accent said through a hacked transmission to the pilots.
The leader was about to respond, but just as she opened her mouth to speak, 30 of the 250 Hi-Mocks suddenly fall apart into several pieces, showing clean cuts on their pieces, but the unknown model was still far away from the inbound Hi-Mocks. Once the Hi-Mocks get into firing range, they waste no time opening firing as they already processed the destruction of their allies and declared the unknown as an enemy. Several beams and bullets fly towards the unknown, who still refuses to move. The beams and bullets hit or miss as it creates a large smoke cloud that covers the unknown. The units stop shooting to see the effects, but even before they could process it, the unknown rushes out of the smoke and passes by the large army as 20 of them fall apart with clean cuts as several glints of light can be seen flashing around the TSF.
"Shit! He's coming right for us! Prepare for combat!" The leader shouts as the 2 long range units get on top of different buildings as the 3 melee ones prepare for combat.
The Hi-Mocks begin to chase the TSF, but they were too slow for the superior mobile unit as it reaches the PPSE team. The GM Cannon opens fire with its mega particle cannon along with the Ghost Jegan F as it fires its beam sniper rifle. The Giga Bases also join in with their long range cannons as they roar like thunder. The enemy suddenly stops and boosts upwards as the thrust produces waves on the water as the large shells and beams hit the ground, missing it completely. The Irish-class and Clop-class open fire with their beam weaponry, but they miss or can't even fire due to being on the blindsides. The TSF closes in as the ships lack CIWS with the Clop-class only having a few of them with missile launchers. The TSF gets underneath the light cruiser as it pulls out its Type-87 Assault Cannon and begins to open fire using the 36mm chaingun part. While in normal terms these bullets won't do that much damage to a spaceship, the bullets were red blurs, indicating that the gun was firing beams even though shells were flying out of the gun. The beams hit the underside as it penetrates the armor and goes through the bridge and the hanger as it explodes as the TSF fires the 120mm cannon part of its assault cannon as they slam into the bridge of both Irish-class as it goes into flames and crash into the water.
"Damn it. Control room, do you copy, I repeat do you copy?" The leader tries to contact the control room, but only gets static.
"It's no use, by now, they are probably all dead." The unknown said as the Giga Bases lose their main cannons as white glints pass right through them before exploding, taking the Arms Forts with them.
The unknown TSF suddenly dashes towards the long range units of the PPSE group as the melee ones try to intercept, but to only fail as the TSF's engines roared even louder, giving the unit even more speed. The Ghost Jegan F and GM Cannon double up on the target as the Jegan charges at the TSF while the GM Cannon prepares another shot from its mega particle cannon. The Jegan charges at the TSF while discarding its beam sniper rifle to pull out a beam saber and begins to shoot at its target with the twin railguns. The rounds hit the TSF, but the damage was negated by GN field that the unit generated using the generators on the shoulders. The Jegan swings its beam saber downwards at the attacker, but clashed with the attacker's own sword as it discards the assault cannon and begins to wield the sword with 2 hands. The Jegan pulls out another beam saber and begins to duel wield as it wildly slashes at the TSF which do no damage as the unit deflects each blow with efficiency. Having enough, the TSF fires its twin CIWS at the Jegan visor, breaking it and leaving the pilot blind before a blade found its way into the cockpit as the Jegan was destroyed. The GM Cannon fires its mega particle cannon at the unknown, but it wasn't there as when the shooter turned around, the TSF was right in front of it and even before it had time to react, Slash Harkens were lodged into the cockpit as they retract back to firing position.
"It's no use, you can't defeat me." The unknown taunts as the melee units arrive.
"Damn you!" The F-22A pilot shouts as the unit recklessly charges at the other TSF before the arms holding onto the sword and shield suddenly comes off as they were sliced into pieces.
The TSF suddenly boosts back as it fires its railguns and missiles, but those shots were useless as the unit's torso was sliced as the upper torso fell into the water. The GM Custom pilot hesitates to attack, but with the Gareth Knightmare the only ally left, they had no choice but to attack. The Gareth circles behind the Fubuki TSF as the GM Custom fires supporting shots with its hyper bazooka. The rounds were destroyed by an unknown glint of white as the Gareth strikes using its spear as it manages to land a hit on the Jump Unit. The TSF ejects the Jump Unit as it blasts backwards to hit the Gareth in the face, giving the Fubuki time to impale the unit with its knives as the Hadron Cannons overload and detonate the Knightmare. The GM Custom comes in and shield bashes the TSF, but when the unit lands, it receives a knife to the face as the pilot's cameras go dark.
"You were so close, but I'm afraid this is where we part ways." The unknown voice said as the pilot's cockpit explodes and everything goes black for her.
[Control Room]
In the control room for the Battle Arena, several PPSE engineers were trying to forcefully shutdown the system, but to no success. The system was hacked as the OS screen showed a raven with red eyes facing right as red errors signs were plastered everywhere.
"Controls are not responding and it won't deactivate despite cutting the power!" An engineer shouted with fear on his face.
"Pilot signatures have disappeared and their vitals have flatlined!" Another engineer shouts as he shows a screen monitoring the test pilot's status as each of their portraits go read and their vital signs go blank.
The door leading into the room suddenly opens as the engineers turn to who opened it. Before anyone had time to react, several bullets enter the heads of each engineer as they drop dead. It is revealed to be the intruders as they had taken over the entire center. All security personal was terminated and the test pilots were KIA. The Battle Arena shutdowns as the Plavsky Particles go back into the arena. All the test pilot's models were all destroyed along with the wreckage of all the battleships and the Hi-Mocks; however, the Fubuki TSF was nowhere to be seen.
[Power Room]
Inside the power room that used large generators to power the Battle Arena and everything else, was a small group of the intruders as they had a laptop opened that was playing a message log.
Nine: Excellent work taking out the targets.
C: They were disappointing, not worth the time.
Nine: That's like you, wanting to find strong enemies.
C: Indeed, also, the "Package" has been sent and now awaiting your command.
Nine: Excellent, however, it is not time to use it, we have confirmed another target.
C: Understood, who would you like to send this time?
Nine: Send in D, maybe we can convince this target.
C: Understood and may I ask, who will he be fighting.
Nine: Someone named Carl Zerris.
[United Kingdom, London]
Walking down the streets was a person with black hair, brown eyes and a typical Eurasian skin tone. He had grey cargo pants and was wearing a hoodie that had the Unicorn Gundam on the back. He had a satchel that was slightly opened to reveal its contents. The only contents that were inside the satchel was a model based on an RG unicorn without the backpack and consists of 2 exceed binders each held to the backpack by 3 arm segments. The arm segments hold a joint for the rifles to be stored. On the waist are 2 energy blades held on by magnets and the GN bits are stored on the underside of the binders. With a weapon looking like a claymore is stored in 2 pieces on each side of the backpack. The head minus the faceplate and V-fin, Body, and Shoulder Pads are black while the other parts are Grey, other than the soles of the feet which are also black. The V fin is silver and the eyes glow red. The Psychoframe is dark blue in color when NT-D is active. Each binder is black with grey sides. The energy blade hilts are silver and all energy blades and beam sabers are dark blue. The man looked rather carefree or calm as he walked down the street as several newspapers were flying around talking about the mysterious group attacking builders and PPSE.
There goes a trailer for one of the upcoming enemies for BLADE. It could be obvious who "C" is if you noticed how he fights and how he sounds like. If this chapter seemed short, it is because there wasn't much of story in this one other than upcoming enemy and new division commander for BLADE.
You can choose these series unit designs if you are lost in creation.
-Gundam (While original, try not to use it, already have 3 Gundam series unit with 2 of them combining a series.)
-Super Robot (Like I said, no Super Robots.)
-Xenoblade Chronicles X (Not recommended unless you know much about Xenoblade Chronicles X.)
-Knights and Magic (Despite being a newcomer, it shows good mech design and weapons and I personally like the series.)
-Frame Arms (Not much to say)
-Armored Core (Mostly prefer 4 and 4 Answer generation, but you can use the older generations or the erm... V and Verdict Day generation.)
-Aldnoah Zero (Mostly restricted to Terran units with a few selected Martian units, one of them being the one with the sword. No would be the first unit with that shield.)
-Macross (Robotech for Americans)
-Code Geass
-Full Metal Panic
-Zoids (Maybe difficult)
-Eureka Seven (Know very little about it)
Current Available Divisions leaders:
-Curators (Surveys the hunting field and collect parts while making traps to catch enemies or wanted targets off guard)
