Parasite Eve II: Armegedon
Now that Kyo's alive, but not yet well, so he'll be faded from this chapter's background for now to allow the story to continue as Kyuu is still being hounded by Koizumi, still unaware that Kyuu is being framed over Yukari's abduction.
Two days have passed since the ambush at Morioka in which led to a fight at Hanamiki Hills where Kyuu narrowly escaped death at the hands of George Koizumi, who holds him responsible over Yukari Hayasaka's disappearance, which the DDS student denies this fact up to this day. He was baffled as to how and why he is being framed for this particular charge, though Issei Kurosaki theorized that Neo-ZECT played a part in this and promised to clear Kyuu's name in no time.

29: Akihabara de Machibuse
Mrs. Renjou and Ryu Amakusa arrived to check on Kyo's condition, in which the doctors explained that it was a "miracle" that he survived three shots, falling from a cliff and despite the injuries he received Kyo was able to stay alive and endured several hours before reaching the hospital from Hanamiki. Of course Mrs. Renjou sobbed at the fact that she nearly lost her youngest child. Ryu had to calm her down since any extreme emotional fits might cause her blood pressure to rise.
Meanwhile, Kyuu explained to Hyuga the situation and how and why Koizumi is marking him as his target and this further raised suspicion on Neo-ZECT's involvement, and now they need to find a way to expose Neo-ZECT as the ones who took Yukari since Hercus was once with ZECT and it is likely that he stole a lot of ZECT's equipments, which also included the ZECT uniforms and weapons.
"…and so that's how my brother got hurt…Koizumi mistook him for me…and I had no idea why he accused me of Yukari's disappearance…though I can tell that I've been framed…though I had no idea that Neo-ZECT's involved in this…"
"Neo-ZECT is involved…their troopers dressed up like ZECT Troopers just to make it appear that we have knowledge in her abduction…and I have to admit their plan was well-crafted…they even manipulated Koizumi in taking you on since his experience as a former member of the Cult of Illuminites. Neo-ZECT deemed you as a real threat since you defeated Mitochondria Eve and the Ultimate Being. I'll head back to HQ and discuss this with the higher-ups…I'm sure they'll look in to this…"
"Thanks, Hyuga…"
"No problem, Kyuu…just be careful…up until now we still have no lead on where Neo-ZECT may be hiding…so it's likely that they might use another trick to lure you in the open and have Drake hit you point blank…and…better hold on to that Zecter…it's your only means of protection now…it'd be better to restrain…if not refrain…from using your Parasite powers unless if it's for a last resort…and I'll talk to the higher-ups to se if they're willing to take you in as an applicant for ZECT's membership…see you."
Hyuga left the hospital as he heads back to ZECT HQ to discuss the matters while the Class Q leader felt uneasy at the turn of events. Shizuko killed…a new breed of NMC are appearing, a new organization shows up as a terrorist counterpart of ZECT…Koizumi is Drake again and is after him…Kyo almost got killed… it was too much of a hassle and yet he doesn't know where to begin with, until a thought hit him and decided to take the risk and went back up the 8th floor, telling Ryu that he's off to check out something, and then he left.
Akihabara, an hour later...
Kyuu was feeling a bit nervous, but knew that he has to do this. Since Koizumi won't listen to reason, perhaps he can get the members of Para-Kiss to persuade Koizumi to halt his rampage and get him to listen to his side of the story. At least it'll help him get through the fashion designer and maybe he'll open up and tell him what he knows about Neo-ZECT.
"This may be a bit risky, but at least it might work and help me get through Koizumi and then things will slowly get crystal clear…and maybe things will get better and the case will slowly get solved since ZECT's allied with DDS…"
Going inside the fashion shop, he finds Miwako Sakurada, Arashi Nagase and Daisuke "Isabella" Yamamoto sitting on their chairs, staying still, and did not took notice of his arrival. Kyuu felt awkward and opted to introduced himself to them but the Para-Kiss crew remained ignorant, though they stared at him before resuming their staring at the table, and again the Class Q leader sweat-dropped though he wondered why they are acting like that.
By then Koizumi arrived after coordinating with the Akihabara police and saw Kyuu and stood between the DDS student and the Para-Kiss crew, shouting at them to leave but they fell to deaf ears, much to his chagrin as they seem to ignore his warnings.
"Guys! Get out of here! This brat's going to abduct you like they did to Yukari!"
"Hey! I already told you that I didn't kidnap her! I'm not affiliated with ZECT…only DDS!"
"Don't try to fool me…!"
"It's Neo-ZECT that has fooled you! I'd never do something like raping her!"
"Coming from the likes of you…"
"Look…tell me your story and I'll tell you mine…that way you'll know everything about me…and maybe I can help you lure out the REAL culprits…the ones who REALLY kidnapped Ms. Hayasaka…"
"Don't give me that bull-crap…"
"It's no bull-crap…I'm telling you the truth…"
"Enough lies now or I'll…what are you staring at?"
Kyuu glanced at the Para-Kiss crew and then recalled the incident at the Akropolis Tower, and a thought hit him as he wondered if this is the case since the trio did not move or speak, and felt uneasy about this until one of them, Miwako, became noticeable as he saw her skin turning pale, and as Kozumi noticed it he was about to go to her side when Kyuu stopped him.
"Stay back…it's not them!"
"What?"
"They're not the Para-Kiss crew! They're Artificial NMCs in disguise!"
"What are you saying? Did you kidnapped them and have ZECT Troopers impersonate them?"
By then Miwako, Arashi and Isabella slumped to the floor, but then their forms slowly changed, their bodies revealing their true forms, slowly increasing in size while their clothes slowly ripped off in a hulk-like fashion, surprising Koizumi himself. They are Stranger-type ANMC, and they are hungry for flesh, seeing Kyuu and Koizumi as their nearest meals.
"Darn it…what did you do to my REAL friends…?"
"Don't blame me…I just got here…"
"If you dare hurt any of them…"
"Like I would in my age…we'll discuss this later, right now we better take them out…!"
"I'm going to regret this…"
Summoning their respective Zecters, Kyuu and Koizumi initiated their transformations to Kabuto and Drake, amd Drake began to open fire while Kabito toggled with his Kunai Gun and activated the "Gun Mode", and both opened fire, managing to take down the two big ones as they shot them on their heads, which they considered their big weakness, but the smaller one, which earlier took the form of Miwako, was quite agile and both had to time their shots to avoid it from escaping outside. Drake managed to get a lock on and fired it until its target was caught and both fighters shoot it down to death.
Seeing that the "ceasefire" is over, Drake aimed his weapon at Kabuto who is checking out the ANMC to make sure that they're dead, and he was surprised to see Drake intending to get a cheap shot at him.
"Are you really that daft?"
"First Yukari…now my friends…what else do you want then?"
By this time the REAL Para-Kiss crew arrived and are alarmed at the sight that they stood in between to stop the two from fighting, Koizumi was surprised, and relieved that his friends are fine and asked them what happened.
Miwako: "Isabella saw a very beautiful dress and me and Arashi and to accompany her to make sure she gets the right dress…"
Arashi: "Though it took him over an hour to decide on which pattern he chose…and what a pain…in the ass…!"
Isabella: "George…what's going on? What are these?"
Drake asked them if Kyuu abducted them or anything which the trio denied, but then the AMNC that impersonated Miwako managed to move and jumps out of the window and ran towards the street, with Kabuto giving chase, and Drake to follow, but told his friends to lay low until he calls them, determined to get to Kyuu to extract hi knowledge on Yukari's whereabouts.
At the streets the ANMC leapt forward with Kabuto chasing behind, and in an effort to lose its pursuers, the ANMC went down the underpass that leads to the subway station and Kabuto realized that it'll cause panic among the passengers so he went after it, and because of ZECT's insignia on his Masked Form, the guards let him in. The chase then leads them underground within the subway tracks.
Seeing that the area is wide open the ANMC chose to face off with Kabuto but seeing that it might pose a risk, Kabuto activated the "Ax Mode" of his Kunai Gun and timed his attack, and landed a few critical strikes, and kept on doing it until it was killed…permanently.
By then Drake arrived and saw this, and decided to take the initiative to do a sneak attack until Kunimitsu Tezuka arrived and urged Drake to cease his actions, but then the next scene sent shockwaves to the two combatants.
"Kyuu Renjou…surrender the Zecter…ZECT wants it back."
There was a hesitant and reluctant tone in Tezuka's voice, not wanting to do this but he had no choice as this was ZECT's orders, especially from Mishima.
"What? Are you serious? What is ZECT thinking?"
"I'm sorry, Renjou…but I'm only following orders…"
A clapping sound was heard and the scene shifts to Ryoma Echizen, smirking at the scene and sees a chance to do some heavy damage, but decided to taunt Tezuka and Kyuu before assaulting them.
"What good timing…ZECT has lost its bearings…and maybe they're fed up with DDS hogging the spotlight and decided to end it by using Kyuu as a scapegoat…"
Kabuto stared wide-eyed at this while Drake looked very annoyed, but Tezuka was filled with tension, seeing that he has finally found Ryoma, and now he has the chance to bring him back to Seigaku High.

ANMC in Para-Kiss…at least the real ones arrived late…if they arrived earlier, they'd be fresh meat for lunch...
Again Koizumi still wants a piece of Kyuu…
Tezuka and Ryoma…a reunion? Or a fight?
