*Good Jiban, you're learning to trust your senses and instinct more and are ignoring distractions which could cost you or someone else their life, it's going to take time to perfect but you are learning and that's the important part, okay everyone time to take a break*
Jiban went back into his human form and then they all talked
*Julia, how long did it take you to learn to trust your senses and instinct when it came to your powers?*
*It took a long time for me, however Jiban has an advantage I never did and that's his police training which allows him to adapt a lot quicker, I have the advantage of years of practice with my abilities but being a police officer negates most of that advantage when it comes to Jiban because he's able to learn faster than me how to adapt to his abilities and sometimes officers just have to trust their gut instincts and that's what helps him out the most. My powers exploded all at once which was a big hindrance in me trusting my powers to the extent I do now, I get the feeling Jiban will have mastered that trust in a few months at the most*
*Try a matter of weeks, Jiban...Naoto tends to grasp concepts faster than most people*
*True, now then, here's a lesson you should have learned, never turn your back on an enemy even if you are face to face*
Suddenly the officer was kicked in the shin and then the stomach
*You let your guard down while I was talking to you and didn't pay enough attention to your surroundings which means you are now separated, alone and with an enemy who's strengths and weaknesses you don't know because guess what, I've been holding back*
Suddenly Julia switched to a stance only one group was familiar with and they were suddenly very, very afraid because of the stance
*Julia you can't...*
*Yes I can, they need to know my true power if they are to survive the battle to come*
*What do you mean Julia?*
*Sorry Eject, I'm afraid I won't and can't say any more, it's for everyone's safety I remain silent for now, just understand that they need to know my true power now instead of later and that means going into the forbidden stance, which I am now declaring no longer forbidden*
*But the damage...*
*Will no longer happen, I was missing a few elements before but I finally found a way to do the moves without severely damaging my own body*
*Very well, I will let the Primes and Galvatron know that the Kerenai style is no longer forbidden*
Julia quickly switches back to Japanese and everyone notices the change in her voice because by that point the group was reunited
*Kerenai style form one*
Suddenly Julia's moves were extremely unpredictable and they got beat badly
*Again! I won't use the same form though, Kerenai style form two*
Julia went through the five forms of her unique style and then mentioned they were stopping for the day
*But Julia...*
*The Chinese EDC officers come in tomorrow and then two days after that we have a raid to accomplish, we've made what preparations we could and now all we can do is wait and see if all our work is successful or not*
*We have to know, why does your own unique style have so many forms?*
*Different situations call for different forms, I was actually going to start working on a sixth form when I was forced to seal the fighting style due to the fact that the style used to cause major damage to my body, there's a reason why I have so many injuries on my medical records, I was not only physically pushing the limits on fighting against robots but I was pushing the limits of my own unique style of self defense and pushed a bit too far at the time, but now I can compensate to the point where there will no longer be any damage if I use my own fighting style*
*Is it possible for me to learn the style?*
*Maybe Jiban, but remember that right now most people don't know that you're alive, those that do know are those that were at the conference and they were sworn to secrecy until after this mission, there's also the fact that it took me years to develop the style so it might take you a bit to learn it, if it's even possible to pass down because I don't know for sure if it is because I incorporate my powers into the style whenever possible, that's part of what makes it so dangerous and so unique at the same time*
*It looks like a normal defense style to me*
*That's because of the fact that while the style incorporates my powers I can choose when or when not to use them and since this was the first time in a very long while I had used the style I decided not to use my abilities so that I could get back into practice with said style*
*By the way I never did find out how you covered Jiban's human disappearance*
*Oh that, we had sent Jiban out on an assignment as Naoto Tamura the day before, and we told him not to give us any reports until he felt it was safe, so even though we lost contact for a long while we figured it was because of his dangerous assignment*
*That actually makes sense, and now that I think about it, Jiban may actually be able to learn the style after all, considering he has pseudo-powers from me after I saved his life, but this is the first time that's ever happened, whenever I used my abilities to save family and friends before this never happened. I now have a connection with those I saved which sometimes helps identify friend from foe but actual abilities is a new one for me*
Frenzy, who had come over without Julia's knowledge because of the fact that Soundwave hadn't given him permission but he felt he was needed anyways and so went to Rodimus for permission, spoke up revealing himself and as a courtesy spoke in Japanese
*There's a reason for that Julia*
*Frenzy, you're supposed to be on your way to Australia, what are you doing here?*
*Rodimus gave me permission, anyways we did a scan of Jiban when we used the machine to reveal his hidden memories to find the location of Omega, normally using your powers to heal or even bring back someone doesn't affect them more than giving you a beacon so that you know it's them, however he had been hit with a weapon that you knew could kill Cybertronians or humans, what you didn't know was that the weapon had been modified since they were trying to make that no longer possible, they may have failed but that modification meant that whenever you visited him your powers slowly seeped into his grave reviving him ever so slowly, and then when you gave that final big push it was just the edge the powers needed to fully bond with Jiban and not only bring him back but give him pseudo-powers as well. When we realized that we realized that we couldn't have that happening anymore so we modified your necklace so that such a thing will never happen again, they'll still get the beacon but your actual abilities will remain solely with you and Jiban*
*Jiban, the Chinese officers might not be able to start planning right away even if it's a short trip between the two countries, after they arrive and we get them to where they're staying I will start teaching you my own unique self defense style, scanning me while I do the forms will help teach you a little faster though not by much because it takes actual practice to get used to the style, but at least you will know the forms and that's a start*
Julia turned out to be right in the fact that the EDC officers couldn't make plans that first day, as it was they had barely made it to the plane in time and were still exhausted from a raid they had sat all night for and then had a fierce battle before things actually ended relatively peacefully so once the officers were safely where they were staying for the time being Julia taught Jiban her own unique style explaining the different forms and which situation was best suited for each form
*Now then you need to actually practice these forms in order to truly master them but at least now you know the basics and can work on it whenever possible*
*By the way did you really bring a bomb on board one of the planes you were on when heading back?*
*Tried, I was asked by the American government to do a random security test and normally as a Japanese citizen they wouldn't do that but part of it was testing to see if Japan Airlines would react to one of their own pilots doing something illegal and the Japanese government wanted that test but wasn't sure how to go about it so they asked the American government for help and so the bombing test was devised and with me actually an international citizen where I am born an American citizen but can become a citizen of any country at need it was all legal for me to do the test *
*So how did security do?*
*They passed with flying colors, I didn't even get past the first stage of security, you see I acted like a normal passenger but I made a big mistake without realizing it, or actually the government made the mistake and I never caught onto it, you see the airport I tried doing it at was actually doing their own security testing at random times times on top of the government required random screening and that day they were testing their sniffer dogs, I was waiting in line for the security screening when one of the dogs came up to me and sat in a passive alert after having sniffed the bag I was rolling by my side and I was taken in for questioning along with a representative of the airline and they were starting to talk about the consequences when a federal agent came in and revealed it was all a test, with that explained I was allowed to go without punishment and I hear the rest of the day went just as well for the airport in regards to random testing*
*Your training isn't complete though is it?*
*Oh my training is complete, it's the qualifications that aren't, we have to separate my qualification training to keep me up to date into two session since I have school. Now then again Jiban and this time I will be using traditional self defense forms mixed while you use my style, afterwords we'll take a break since we have plans to make for the raid in two days. The enemy is about to find out what they've unleashed the hard way*
Jiban becomes Naoto once more and they go to the police station because Julia's legal guardians were there due to an incident that happened on the way back to Japan that involved several people and so her Japanese family decided it was best to simply meet up at the station like normal so that everyone would understand just how it might affect things in the future. Once that was done Julia realized there was one more thing that Jiban needed to know, just in case
*Naoto, can I talk to you in private for a moment?*
They go to an office which was the office used whenever he was in his Jiban form and the officers were talking about things due to security reasons
*This might not affect you as a robot but just in case it does happen my Arranyan powers can sustain me for a short time which means if something happens and I have no access to food or water it's not as dangerous as for most people. I can go without water for four days instead of three and six months without food instead of three, but after three months and two days respectively I do start to feel the affects of not going without the necessities, but it won't kill me as quickly*
*We'll just have to wait and see, plus you're acting like my pseudo-powers are still evolving*
*That's because they are, things haven't nearly settled enough to understand what you can and can't do with my abilities, due to our connection I can sense that much at least*
*What if I get actual abilities like you have?*
*We simply don't know, that's a possibility but I get the feeling it won't happen, partly because of the fact that you are mechanical but also because you gained those abilities from me, I was born with the abilities though they didn't reveal themselves until I was five, you weren't*
Though it would take time to find out, eventually the pseudo-powers would settle and Jiban would not only be able to sense people like Julia, he also had the ability to shield himself, but no one else, he could sense something a lot sooner than before, though part of that was paranoia part of it was a sixth sense about certain things that he heard or saw, he couldn't form actual weapons but it turned out that the weapon range had increased which was a new thing but needed, and finally his pseudo-powers included the ability recover slightly faster than before which meant he no longer needed his secondary base for anything other than major damage. At the time though they didn't know that, all they knew was that his powers were evolving still and they had a raid in two days
