Chapter 7: The Perfect Life Form
We had all moved to a briefing room where a whole bunch technology activated upon our arrival. From the spotless ebony table rose multiple layers of lime green information. A screen dropped behind it and turned itself on displaying more information. Special lights lite the floors from all the floorboards and the edge of the table. There were no chairs so we all had to stand. The entire room was shined to reflect the little light emitted from below. Everything was a deep shade of black, my quills were jealous.
When Silver came in holding Sonic by the ear, Amy finally spoke again.
"Nicole, recap for our new recruits." Nicole? Where have I heard that name?
"With pleasure ma'am." The files on the table started to spin. They moved faster and faster while forming a body. A chocolate brown, black accented, lynx in a purple single strap dress that was longer in the back now stood in their place. That's right, the A.I. that was never too far from the Acorn Princess. "Boys, join me at the board."
With that she nearly glided down, off the table and to the screen. A reluctant Sonic and I followed. Multiple files appeared on the once blank canvas as we walked towards it.
"Project Techna; a mobian that had previous battle experience, exceptional strength in mind, heart and body and had at least one encounter with the Ultimate Life Form. P.T. was captured during the initial attack to be tested. Target mobian was decided before attack. Target mobian was put through immense studies to test; durability, strength, power, intellect and so forth. Tests lasted six years before P.T. went wild and destroyed facility; no survivors. However, target mobian was still infused with Techna Serum to grant great power acceding my own. Created for one purpose alone, to demolish rebel trump card; Ultimate Life Form. Result... Perfect Life Form."
My jaw hung loosely as I heard about just what Project Techna was; my ultimate, or perfect, opponent. The poor mobian was put through six years of tests to simply become my greatest weakness. They suffered because of me. That's one more to the list of many.
"P.T. has been isolated and unapproached by any mobian for four years." She continued. "Only now that Espio has found such remarkably similar readings is there proof of P.T. existing. By many, P.T. was believed to be nothing but a myth set out to discourage The Ultimate Life Form. Now, whoever they are, can be contained and prevented from harming others."
"Wait, you said contain how do we mere mortals contain that? Better yet, explain how we get close to it." Sonic nearly yelled at the electronic words flashing before him.
Everyone turned their attention to the table once again as the top split in half. In its place was a mobian sized tube constructed of what appeared to be two inch thick glass and five inch thick titanium. There was a small control panel attached to the bottom of the over-sized can.
"Light, strong and controllable. This thing will keep P.T. in a coma like state as long as it needs to be. It was modeled after your very own pod that kept you in suspended animation, Shadow." Amy glanced in my direction as she spoke, only to return her attention to the capsule before us. "It works somewhat the same too, only it is built to contain Techna Energy instead of Chaos Energy."
A small compartment opened near the controls with six watch-like objects.
"These will be worn by the few who go to the base. It can temporarily disarm P.T. and render it almost defenseless. You must remember, whoever P.T. is, is still very powerfully with out their enhanced abilities. They will be very weak for a while after the cancellation of their powers but only a short period of time. Be careful." With those final words, Nicole peeled away in bright green pixel-like squares.
Amy grabbed the wrist bands and gave one to Espio, Silver, Blaze, Sonic and myself, before latching the last one on her own wrist.
"Once we have the proper supplies ready, and the newbies get their all-purpose suits, we follow Espio to The Perfect Lifeform."
