Review Response
Lily: Yes, Jai will be remembered! I am sorry that Tales of The Abyss made you sad, I have been told to play that game though! Perhaps I will! Oh, the many plans and possible future for dear Osamu! *bows* Thank you for another review! ^-^
A/N: *hiding in covers* Aw man, last chapter SUCKED! I total butchered the last part, as you can tell I'm not very good at explaining what happens in my mind! I also tri for a week to make this chapter longer! But, after many revisions I just couldn't! The only other option was to change where it ends, which I didn't want to do. Okay, now that that's done, let's just get to the chapter…*waves arms*

(Line Break)
"Ha-ha! The mysterious Border has final showed!" Mechanical giggles flow from Lamia's black mechanical arm, "This should be interesting."
Kikuchihara sighs, scratching his head, "That high pitched voice is driving me crazy, let's just get this over with."
Utagawa flicks his scorpion blade in his palm at the comment, "Shiro-san, we need to be a little cautious, this is a possible black trigger."
"Yah I know, these trion soldiers just make a lot of noise."
Kazama disregards his teammates, turning his head to face Usami, "Shiori-san, stay back while we deal with this."
The operator nods in understanding, "Got it!" Deactivating the scorpion blade she turns back towards the cowering form behind the tree, "Mr. M! Gieve! Let's get out of here so we aren't in their way."
The unit captain feels internal relief as the three hostages start making their way down the hill. Kazama turns back to the enemy, eyeing the black humanoid trion soldiers: Just like Jin said.
"Utagawa, Shiro, Chameleon." The captain is already half-way seethrough, "Use stealth and Shiro's side effect."
"Roger." Utagawa steps back, small green circles glowing as he disappears.
"Hm." Kikuchihara disappears last, leaving no trace of the Border unit ever being there.
"Oh! A invisibility trigger? This is getting more interesting!" Lamia glances around, ignoring Charon's remarks.
Two blue and black blurs appear momentarily, slicing through the last soldiers blue eye. It explodes, evaporating into white cubes. The two disappear again.
I need more soldiers! Lamia brings her arm up, shooting more gates into the grass.
"Defensive soldiers? They may be tougher but we need ones that are quicker!" On cue, all three agents appear, slicing through the trion soldiers, "It appears they must appear before attacking. If we infuse enough trion in the speedy soldiers they can be of more use!" Another explosion.
Lamia sighs, pushing a trion bullet into her weaponized arm: More trion makes them quicker, ultimately being able to move away quick enough. Another three gates appear, smaller humanoids emerge. A single blur appears, striking towards the nearest soldier. In a flash, the shorter form brings up a clawed arm, deflecting the attackers blade. In the confusion, it raises the other arm, bringing it forward and piercing huge claws through the chest of the agent, who explodes into smoke.
"Ha-ha! Got one!" From the smoke emerges Utagawa, a look of confusion paints his face. "Take him out!" The soldier rushes forward, reaching towards the defenseless agent. A green shield expands in front of Utagawa, deflecting the sharp claws from their path.
"Looks like you messed up Utagawa-san." Kikuchihara jumps down from his tree, hand extended with the trigger 'shield' symbol glowing from his palm, "Good things these ones are noisy, makes predicting their moves fairly easy."
"Ah! How disappointing!"
"Tsk, we'll just hav-" Slice, trion flows from Lamia's chest, scorpion blade tip poking out the front.
Kazama pulls back the blade from the Eragtis neighbor, "You left yourself wide open. I thought it was a trick at first, but it's obvious you're not a soldier." The scientist explodes into smoke, leaving a crouched down form on the ground.
"Hm, Kazama-san, these soldiers don't seem to be affected by the defeat of her." Kikuchihara slashes at the closest, leaving only a small scratch on the armor.
"Ah! Of course they aren't!" Charon floats out of the haze, staring at the Border agents, "They are infused with trion! They have their own little trion regulation system."
Kazama glances at the bot, summoning a second scorpion blade in his other hand, "Looks like we're counting on your side effect Shiro-san."
Kikuchihara sighs, rubbing his head, "How bothersome."
"Utagawa-san, go find where the others hid."
The agent gone civilian nods, "Right Kazama-san" He runs down the hill.
"Oh, what's a 'side effect'?" The chaperone points with a wire, "Defeat them."
Kikuchihara runs forward, meeting one of the soldiers claws with his scorpion. The black trion soldier attempts to jump back, but just stumbles. "Kazama-san, mole claws aren't going to hold this one forever." Kikuchihara glances back at his leader. The A-rank captain jumps up, bringing a scorpion blade down into the blue eye, causing the head to explode.
"What?!" Charon wiggles up and down, trying to figure out what happened, "To bad you left yourself wide open!"
"Left." Both jump as a large claw sweeps where they were standing, landing on their feet.
"Gah! You're cheating some how!"
Kikuchihara blocks another blow, cutting its arm clean off.
"How dare you humans-"
"Charon, enough," Lamia walks forward, staring at the agents, "We have lost," She extends her hands up in defeat.
"Aw, how boring."
(Line Break)
"They surrendered to easily."
"This is true, but Kazama did mention that they were not the battle type of people."
"Rindo, are you defending more neighbors?"
Rindo waves his arms, puffing out a breath of smoke, "Not really, just saying that perhaps they were scared."
Kido runs a finger down his scar, "Regardless of their surrender conditions, what should we do with them?"
Kinuta grumbles, "We should lock them away, extract them for information."
"I disagree," Shinoda stands, "Think about the larger picture, these neighbors came from a world that was destroyed. They are angry, scared and desperate of course."
"What are you saying?" Netsuki glares, "Are you defending their actions?"
"No, they will be held accountable. But, think, they were able to teleport here via gate travel and where able to summon their own custom warriors from the gates."
"You want to use them for technology, specifically the gate technology." Kido leans back.
"Hm, that could help in the extraction of the C-rank agents from Aftorkrator." Kinuta leans forward, "I agree to this plan."
Netsuki raises his hand, "Same."
"Rindo? What does Tamakoma say?" Shinoda looks towards the nonchalant leader.
"Tamakoma will go forward with this."
Just as Jin said.
(Line Break)
"This is Gieve, he's the one that Lamia wanted me to fix." Usami introduces the soldier, watching each Tamakoma member take in the information.
"How'd HQ not take him away? He is a neighbor afterall." Konami folds her arms, waiting for an answer.
Usami scratches her head, "Well, they passed him off as a civillian like Mr. M, but let him go without a redue on the brain."
"Hm, he looks like a normal person." Yuma strokes his chin, duck face facade present.
Xeno pokes the pale arm, "He does look like a human, but he is not. He is the ultimate creation of Eragtis; a humanoid trion soldier."
"T-that's amazing!" Chika gazes at the blonde in wonder.
Lilith runs up, hugging the unexpecting Gieve, "Yah! Another like Lilith!"
Usami gaps at Lilith, "Like you?"
Xeno sighs, scratching his red locks, "I was going to tell you guys, Lilith is a humanoid trion soldier as well."
Yuma looks back at the Eragtis engineer, "Is the opposite possible?"
"Opposite what?"
"Taking a human and creating them into a trion soldier?"
Xeno flinches, "Y-yes, that's what happened to-"
"How goes it here in Tamakoma?" Jin walks through the door, nibbling on a cracker.
"Ah, Jin-san."
The elite pats the little girls head, "Hello Chika-chan!"
"Shiori, who's this?" Gieve takes a step back from the elite's direction.
"Oh, that's Jin, he's one of Tamakoma's top members."
"I am a power elite after all." He walks forward, stretching out a hand, "Nice to make your acquaintance, I look forward to seeing Tamakomas future with you involved." Jin smirks, "At least that's what my side effect is telling me."
