Special Notes:
●This story is my version of what happens after Ex-Machina part 2 using my story Family Secret as part of the story line.
●To avoid confusion, Gato and my original character Ami from Family Secret are the same person.
●Unless stated otherwise, when anyone says the Dojo or Dojo is after the words 'Part 1,2,3,ect', it's the ship not the Dojo on Earth.
●The characters from Naruto are not from Earth. I'm using them for the storyline under the idea they're from another planet. Same for any monster names I use from Resident Evil.
●Finally, here are the genders for the Caretaker's species in the story; the Caretaker and Peacemaker are female, while the Judge, Watcher, and Historian are male.
After Math
By: Davescifi
Act 36
Part 1: Anhreif,
"As you see the tests were successful", Toola started as he showed his newest creation to the evil with Bedlam watching who had a bored look on his face, "I can now start with the full scale model." Suddenly the doors to the evil's main camber opened, causing the three to look and see Hybrid and Chimera entering, "Huh?"
"I didn't know you called them", Bedlam stated as the evil and him talked through a mental link.
"I didn't", the evil replied, "For some reason, they wanted to give their report on what accessed my power in person."
"This is surprising", Toola commented before he turned back to the computer. Suddenly he felt a hand on him and turned to see Chimera before she punched him hard enough to knock him down, "You brat."
"Shut up Toola", Chimera replied before she grabbed him by his neck and made him sit up, "We ran into an old victim of yours. Does the name Cyberlos ring a bell?"
"Cyberlos", Bedlam thought as he looked and saw Hybrid standing still with his arms folded.
"How do you know about him", Toola questioned, "He was destroyed years ago."
"Afraid not", Hybrid said, "He was sent to that world because of one of Ed's items that you had in your possession. There he was able to find a node that the evil had used before and accessed it for power."
"But he has be deposed of correct", the evil questioned, "And the node has been destroyed?"
"He ended up destroying himself before the planet was turned to lava", Chimera answered, "But he so powerful, we had to work with the Dojo as well as the Dragoon's commander and the Caretaker to even oppose him."
"You sided with them", Toola growled as he hoped to avoid the evil's wrath that might come, "You treacherous brats."
"Oh that reminds me", Chimera replied before she punched Toola again, "I promised Gato I would put a beat down on you and I'd like to think I'm a girl of my word." Chimera then punched Toola again and again, "I'm guessing the evil drained you a bit to sustain himself,"
"Enough", Toola screamed before he pushed Chimera away and got up and summoned his power, "I've used a lot of my power to test my latest creations but I still have the power to crush you."
"Oh and there's the matter of him trying to drain me", Chimera pointed out. Chimera then went to Archon mode and allowed Toola to hit her as he did no damage, "Weak, now I'll show you an attack." Chimera then launched a psionic wave and caused Toola to turn back to normal as he hit the computer table.
"Chimera enough", the evil commanded, "While I admit this is amusing, I still need him intact."
"I've had my fun", Chimera replied as she turned back to normal before looking at the holo screen that showed what Toola was working on, "I can see why. I'll admit I'm curious what the result will be."
"Anything we can do while we're here", Hybrid asked.
"Not at the moment", the evil answered, "Return to the Aurian home galaxy and keep me informed. Hybrid and Chimera then left as Bedlam and the evil looked at each other.
"Are you sure they can be trusted", Bedlam asked, "They were created to fight Dojo and they worked with them."
"It was a necessary action", the evil replied, "While it may have some affects on them, the same can be said about the Dojo. Besides, if I destroyed everyone I thought might be a problem you wouldn't be here right now."
"Of course", Bedlam said in a low tone since he had been wanting to get rid of Hybrid and Chimera since he found they had the same Archon power as Ed. Bedlam then turned to Toola who was getting to his feet, "Just remember they were your idea."
"Keep your opinions to yourself", Toola growled as he thought, "If the evil doesn't do something, I will."
"Typical", Bedlam thought, "Still I wonder how the Aurians are taking this."
Part 2: Auri: Council Chambers,
"I see", the Judge said as Toman finished giving his report, "It is good that it ended well."
"That still doesn't change the fact of your reckless actions Commander", Watched started, "You shouldn't have sent the Dragoon to that planet alone when you had a fleet at your at your back and you went after the Caretaker alone."
"With respect sir, I was the only one on the Dragoon that could have coped with the level of Anhreifer energy as I stated in my report", Toman calmly replied, "The only other one that might have been able to resist was Vice-commander Sye and I felt he was needed on the ship. As far as the fleet goes, if they had been there, we might not have had Hybrid and Chimera and in the end they played as big a part in stopping Cyberlos as the Dojo crew, the Caretaker, or myself."
"I see", Watcher responded as he turned to the Caretaker, "Do you agree with his statement?"
"Absolutely", Caretaker answered, "And to add to his argument, had Toman's fleet been there and fired on the barrier Cyberlos used to trap us, that would have made him stronger."
"I see", Watcher said as he saw their points.
"There is still the matter of you reaching Aura level", Peacemaker stated as the council, including the Caretaker to a degree, was surprised by the fact that the commander had reached the same level of power as them.
"I had my reasons", Toman respectfully explained, "One being that I have no wishes to be admitted to the council in any way until this matter is over. For now my skills are better used as a battlefield commander."
"We would have asked", Historian pointed out, "And there is no law that says someone must always show what level they are at."
"I wonder if he knows about the Machine's cost", Judge thought before he looked to the council, "Allow me and Toman a moment." The council shook their heads and the Judge and Toman formed a mental link, "There's a question I have to ask."
"Do I know about the Machine", Toman questioned causing Judge to look in shock, "Yes I do and I can't believe you would force such a thing on Caretaker by making her hide it. You know she has a special connection with humans."
"I was afraid of this", Judge replied, "But now you know why it was important to find out if they all had Archon mode."
"That's the only reason I'm not going to release this fact to the public", Toman stated, "That and I have my own reason." The two then broke the link.
"Caretaker, due to your part in this, I need to speak with the others", Judge stated as he now knew that Toman knew the truth, "Commander, you are excused as well."
"Of course", Caretaker replied.
"As you wish", Toman added before the two left and the doors to the council chambers closed.
"He knows about the cost", Judge informed the group, "However he doesn't plan to inform the public."
"At least it was him who found out", Watcher replied as he breathed a sigh of relief, "Did he say why?"
"Because of the Archon mode", Judge answered, "And another reason that he didn't say."
"I know why", Historian stated, "Looks like it's finally happened between those two."
"He's right", Peacemaker replied before she saw a strange look on Watchers face, "Something you want to say?"
"About time", Watcher answered causing the others to look at him in shock, "Think about it, they've been friends practically since Caretaker started to live here and she is the only one here who is not married."
"That's because when we were getting married, she was starting to watch over the Guardian as he was being credited", Peacemaker pointed out.
"It was more than that", Judge replied as he wondered what was going on outside.
Outside the chamber:
"I could kick you for not telling me sooner", Caretaker said as they walked, "For all I know you might hear something I don't want you to hear."
"I thought I told you I reached Aura level", Toman replied.
"You didn't", Caretaker informed, "But never mind. I'm just glad that's over."
"So you want to get something to eat", Toman asked, "Ton still uses that pizza recipe you gave him in his restaurant and we all know you love pizza just as much as those children."
"Is this a date", Caretaker joked as she elbowed him before he elbowed back to let her know it was, "Sure but no announcing it to the world."
"Deal", Toman replied before the two headed out of the building as another group was getting ready to have a good time."
Part 3: Dojo,
"Check", Ed said as Ol'skool and him played a game of original chess while the rest of the crew were busy, "So have you thought about what I said about Caretaker and Toman?"
"Good move", Ol'skool commented before he got back to the subject, "Yes I have; I admit I'm surprised but I did get the idea that they knew each other well when we were on the Dragoon and Toman did tell Deets and me that Caretaker and him had been friends since they were 12 years old."
"Makes you wonder why they haven't went to the next step", Ed commented.
"Could be they let their jobs get in the way", Ol'skool relied as he went to take a sip of his drink.
"Remind you of anyone", Ed asked causing Ol'skool to almost choke.
"You mean Dr. Burton and me", Olskool questioned before Ed shook his head, "Yeah, we did let our jobs get to us."
"Can I ask you something", Ed asked before Ol'skool shook his head, "I know why you watched over me but why did she?"
"At first Mary did it because of the threat from the evil", Ol'skool explained, "However she came to see you like her own son since she can't have children of her own. That's why she's always acted like a mother to you."
"Like giving me this", Ed replied as he looked at the trinket the Doctor had given him.
"Right", Ol'skool sighed as he thought about the past, "I'll be honest, other than the fact I worked with Bedlam, allowing my career to affect my relationship with Mary is my only real regret." The two then played a few more moves before Ol'skool had Ed, "Checkmate."
"Snap", Ed replied before Ed Torch appeared, "Hey Torch are our Slammers fixed yet?"
"You mean the Slammers that would have been destroyed if Kitty and me not beamed them up", Torch joked causing Ed to lift an eyebrow, "Yeah they're fixed but the circuits were almost melted." Suddenly Kitty appeared causing the three to look at her.
"They others are ready for you two", Kitty informed them, "The dates and Deets' movie didn't take as long as expected."
"Tell them we're on our way", Ol'skool replied as he looked to Ed and thought, "I wonder if Mary would object to Ed knowing the other reason why she acted like she did." Ol'skool then cast the thought aside as Ed and him left his meditation area and found the others in the living room where the others were next to the newly installed bowling lane, "Explain again how you all persuaded me to let you install this in the living room."
"You wanted us to get away from the holo games and holo deck", Deets stated ,"And the bowling was your idea since it's not usually played anymore ."
"It won't get in the way", Fizz added, "Gato and me set it so the whole lane will retract into the wall and floor."
"And as long as no one does anything crazy, the sides should be big enough so the balls won't fly or roll into the rest of the living room", Gato also added, "Only thing that's left is finding the right ball weight for everyone."
"Hold on", Ed replied, "I don't even know the first thing about this game."
"Didn't you read the rules", Burn asked before Ed gave his a shrug, "Never mind."
"What rules", Loogie asked followed by Dr. Pinch, "The rules were left out for everyone to read. I still can't take you anywhere."
"I hope you didn't read too much because I wanted to teach you", Ol'skool laughed before the game began. As Ol'skool suspected, the crew caught on quick but he was able to keep a lead as all of them had to adjust their first couple of throws. Ol'skool then watched as Gato made a strike, "Nice shot, by the way how's the data from the fight coming?"
"It should be ready but Fizz and me want to go over it some more", Gato explained.
"Just to be sure", Fizz added as she took her turn and also managed a strike. After a few more turns, Ol'skool was able to win by just one point followed by Ed and Fizz.
"Not bad", Ol'skool laughed, "Now let's see that data. I'm sure it'll be fine." The twins, not seeing any point, didn't say anything and walked with the others to the computer room where Torch and Kitty were, "Want to do the honors?"
"Sure thing", Kitty answered as the crew took their seats, "As you all know, because of the field we weren't able to get any readings from orbit but we did data from the Fizz's and Gato's scanners and the Slammers told us some things as well."
"Such as ", Burn asked.
"Well we found out that the metal was similar to the multiphase materials used in your suits", Torch started, "That's why he was able to use your energies without training."
"What about him fusing our Aurian energy with the evil's", Ed questioned.
"That's the interesting thing", Kitty replied, "According to the scans, the energy didn't fuse together."
"But the scans showed it did", Fizz stated, "Why are they showing a different result now?"
"That's what we were wondering and we thought we were wrong but the Slammers confirmed it", Torch answered, "What happened is that the metal was able to keep the energies in check so it would appear that they had been fused."
"Was that why our Slammers were almost broken", Loogie asked followed by Dr. Pinch, "I have a feeling they were getting to that."
"Actually Loogie's right", Kitty started, "The energies were destroying and acting against each other. As result, the Slammers' nearly overloaded from the reaction the energies had to each other."
"What about Cyberlos", Deets questioned, "Was Chimera right about his circuits decaying?"
"I'm afraid so", Torch answered, "His circuits were improved by that metal but all he did was delay the inevitable."
"So he was doomed the moment he used both energies at once", Gato guessed.
"More or less", Kitty stated, "Perhaps if we had helped him in the beginning but my guess would be by the time the Dojo, Shadow, and Dragoon opened fire together it was too late."
"I see", Ol'skool sighed as he looked to see how Gato was taking the truth, "Gato?"
"I'm alright", Gato replied as she accepted the fact she had done everything she could, "So did you two finding anything else that might be worth looking at?"
"Other than the fact that Hybrid and Chimera archon mode energy readings match yours", Torch replied, "No."
"Speaking of them", Ed started, "I know we haven't talked about it, but am I the only one that was surprised how well we worked together."
"It wasn't all good", Fizz stated, "We may have fought well together, but I had to get between Caretaker and Chimera."
"Don't forget about you and me having to get between Toman and Hybrid", Burn added, "They were more than ready to take each other out."
"So we had a few speed bumps", Loogie commented followed by Dr. Pinch, "After that, you worked like a well oiled machine."
"Loogie and Dr. Pinch do have a point", Gato said, "First you have when Ed and Hybrid had to protect the guys from that explosion. Then you have Chimera saving Deets since Deets defended her when Cyberlos tried to drain her. Last, but not least, you have to admit how they did play a big part in keeping everyone alive even if it was to complete the objective the evil gave them."
"I don't think it would have mattered", Deets commented, "Even if the evil hadn't given them the order, if Chimera had still been captured, I feel the result would have been the same."
"Why the sudden trust", Ol'skool asked as Deets as he recalled her lack of trust for Zero when he first came.
"It seems like every time they run into us something's changed or something happens that changes them", Deets explained, "I mean think about it, the second time we ran into them after the meeting on the Dragoon we found them acting like boyfriend and girlfriend. Then you've got how they're fascinated by some things such as Chimera's reaction to Fizz having earrings or how they were so surprised how strong we were when we fought them the first time. Last you've got to look at all the times they could have done more to hurt us but they didn't. Maybe it's just me but I feel that deep inside they want to break away from the evil and be more like us but feel they can't."
"You have no idea how close you are", Ol'skool thought as he recalled what Hybrid and Chimera had told him when he was on the Shadow. Ol'skool then saw the others looking at him, "What?"
"I just recalled that when I suggested working with Hybrid that Hybrid asked me if you had told us anything", Ed explained, "What did he mean?"
"I guess I can't keep it a secret forever", Ol'skool sighed, "Deets is right to a point about Hybrid and Chimera but the reason they've stayed on the evil's side is that as far as they're concerned, there's just as much of a chance of them being destroyed by the Aurians as them being destroyed by the evil."
"They told you more didn't they", Burn questioned as he knew Ol'skool wasn't telling them everything.
"Yes but I'm not going to say anything more for now", Ol'skool answered, "They have the right to some privacy as I've done with all of you. Only reason I told you what I did is so you know why they're doing what they are, however I'll say this much, I feel those two have a lot of goodness inside of them but something is going to have to bring it out." For the next few moments, the crew pondered what Ol'skool said before they finished up and went to train as they thought about their counterparts.
Part 4: Shadow,
"Is she still in the med bay", Hybrid asked as the Shadow entered the Milky Way galaxy.
"She is but Neko won't let me in", Flash answered as Hybrid and him went into the living room, "You don't think it's happening again?"
"She'd be grouchy if it was and she said it's only supposed to happen once a month", Hybrid replied before the two saw the med bay door open, "Chimera?"
"Close your eyes", Chimera requested before Neko appeared and pulled Flash into one of the computers.
"Ah sure", Hybrid replied before he did so and listened to Chimera footsteps.
"Open them", Chimera instructed before Hybrid did so and saw that Chimera had pierced her ears and placed on each one a flat, ruby colored, octagon shaped earring, "What do think?'
"Nice", Hybrid answered, "I'm a little surprised but those earrings somehow bring out your eyes."
"Aren't you sweet", Chimera laughed, "Truth is that when I saw Deets, Gato, and Fizz with them I wanted them too for some reason."
"Must be a girl thing", Hybrid suggested before he saw Chimera looking at the floor, "So I'm not the only one who's thinking about what happened."
"Yeah", Chimera sighed before the two sat down on the couch and Chimera laid against Hybrid as he put an arm around her, "I don't know what to think."
"It's it really surprising that this is nibbling at us", Hybrid asked, "Think about it, we were made to mash them so working with them wasn't exactly part of the program."
"Part of the program", Chimera jokingly questioned, "Did Toola even have a program?" Both of the teens then broke out laughing as Toola was often the butt of their jokes. Hybrid could tell Chimera had lightened up a bit, "I guess we could take it as proof that we're not his puppets."
"Speaking of that", Hybrid started, "How did it feel to use Toola as a ragdoll? Only fair since you asked me when I sparred with Bedlam."
"So, so", Chimera answered, "I admit it felt good but it was kind of boring with him not even being a challenge."
"So that's why you were a bit ticked when we left", Hybrid joked, "It's not like his full powers would have been much. But let me ask you something."
"Like what", Chimera asked.
"Suppose things had been different and the evil hadn't ordered us to take care of Cyberlos", Hybird started, "Do you think we would have helped?"
"Hybrid", Chimera started as she sat up and took his hand, "I know you didn't help the guys because of the evil's orders. You helped them to save me and I would have done the same for you." Chimera then stopped for a moment as she saw Hybrid was deep in thought, "You okay?"
"I was just thinking how much we've changed", Hybrid explained, "I know we never said it but I know at first we felt that our feelings for each other were just effects of being made of the Dojo's DNAs."
"But we now know these feelings are our own", Chimera replied before she saw Hybrid smile, "Funny how you cheer me up and I cheer you up huh?"
"That does seem to happen doesn't it", Hybrid laughed, "So what was Toola working on that the evil felt it was worth saving him; a new fiend?"
"That and something else that you won't believe", Chimera answered, "He's working on a warship that's made out of living tissue." Chimera then saw the 'are you kidding me' look on Hybrid's face, "You heard me, a space and warp capable, organic ship."
"Toola thinks something organic can stand up to an Aurian warship", Hybrid questioned, "I mean, even I can see how the ship could repair itself but still."
"I was thinking that but Toola could keep modifying the genetic structure, the thing might have a chance", Chimer explained, "Only problem is that I have no idea what the thing would be armed with."
"So Bedlam's having fiends build new ships and Toola's now trying to grow them", Hybrid sighed, "I see another fight between them soon. By the way, what was your opinion on the evil's condition?"
"I could tell he was weakened, leaving me to guess Cyberlos must have taken a huge amount of energy, but he still had the power to crush Bedlam and Toola", Chimera commented before Neko and Flash appeared, "What's up?"
"We just got done with your Slammers", Flash started, "You two did a number on them."
"Meaning", Hybrid asked.
"The circuits were almost shot", Neko explained, "Looks like the energies didn't fuse like Cyberlos thought."
"Then how did he use them together", Chimera questioned.
"Looks like that metal had multiphase properties like your suits", Flash answered, "It allowed the energies to temporarily keep the energies close together."
"Until his circuits were fried", Chimera replied, "So our Archon auras are no different of the Dojo's?"
"As we thought", Flash replied, "No doubt the Dojo's figured it out."
"No doubt", the Hybrid started.
"All that leaves is Toman and the Caretaker", Chimers finished, "We don't know if they got their Slammers."
Part 5: Auri,
"Ton you've done it again", Caretaker commented as she finished her pizza, "I've been depriving myself."
"I was wondering if you'd ever come back", Ton laughed as he looked waited for the last customers to leave so it was only Toman, Caretaker, and himself, "So what's the occasion?"
"Nothing special", Caretaker answered even though she knew Ton could see the truth.
"Just relaxing a bit", Toman explained as he thought, "Ton's known us since we were kids."
"And here I thought", Ton started to think but stopped, "Can I get you anything else?" Suddenly Ton looked back at the two and knew someone was sending them a telepathic message.
"Sorry Ton but we better get going", Caretaker replied as Toman and her paid, "Next time I'll get some of that ice cream you make."
"Here take this", Ton said as he handed them two cups of ice cream, "On the house."
"Thank you", the two said before they left and began to walk through the capital as they got the rest of the message about what the council's science team had found from their Slammers.
"I guess Ton had physic insulation installed", Toman commente as they finished their ice cream, "I could barely make the message out. Knowing him, he had it installed to make the place more peaceful."
"Well this is the most physic energy covered city on the planet and not everyone is trained yet", Caretaker pointed out, "At least we now know that Hybrid and Chimera's Archon energies are no different from the Dojo's."
"Hold on", Toman said before formed a mental link, "I think we better talk about this telepathically."
"Agreed", Caretaker replied.
"We should be looking at the fact the evil was drained", Toman commented, "As much as I hate to say it, Cyberlos might have done us a favor."
"True but it might leave Bedlam with a chance to do anything", Caretaker stated, "Who knows what he's been up to."
"It's not Bedlam who should be in question", Toman started, "Toola is the one who warrants attention. None of us have see him since Hybrid and Chimera first appeared. But on the subject of Bedlam, Cyberlos might have shown what would happen if he tried to use Archon or Aura modes with the evil's power."
"I've been thinking about that but there's no way to tell", Caretaker said, "While chances are in the favor that he'd destroy himself, we have to be open to the possibility that he could find a way to control them."
"Perhaps", Toman replied, "However, I would think that a being like the evil would only let him get so powerful before he put a stop to it. Plus there's the chance the evil took some of his power back if Cyberlos drained him enough."
"Only problem with that theory is that we have no idea how intelligent the evil is", Caretaker responded, "When it was encountered, there was no way to tell since the reports were never agreeing."
"Looks like old habits do die hard", Toman started, "We always did love to debate with each other." The two then broke out laughing, "So do you want to do anything else?"
"Let's go walk in the park", Caretaker suggested before she felt Toman put his hand around hers as they walked to the park and enjoyed the night, as they knew tomorrow might bring another danger.
Part 6: Bedlam's ship: Orbiting Anhreif,
"Report", Bedlam ordered as he walked onto the bridge.
"The new warp engine is installed and we can test it ay any time", his second in command answered.
"Very good", Bedlam laughed, "This should make traveling between galaxies easier."
"Sir I'm detecting something coming from the surface", a fiend informed Bedlam as it couldn't believe what the scanner was showing, "It's biological."
"What", Bedlam questioned as he thought, "Toola?" Bedlam then saw the giant organism that saw so small when he had looked at it days ago, "It's almost the size of the Dojo?"
"Scanners are showing it's still growing my lord", another field stated, "But something is keeping me from scanning its engines and weapons."
"Keep trying", Bedlam ordered as he thought, "I didn't think he would succeed. What has he done?"
Part 7: Toola's ship,
"Are they trying to scan us", Toola asked as he looked through a screen.
"Yes my lord, by the shield and the outer membrane are stopping them", a fiend answered.
"Poor fool", Toola laughed, "I wish I could see the look on his face. He must have been surprised to find this ship had grown so quickly. Check the feeder generators."
"All are functioning sir", another fiend informed Toola, "The body is absorbing the local gasses and radiation and the internal power cells are charging. Bio warp drive and bio ion engines are ready for testing."
"And Bedlam thought an organism could produce the same power as a spaceship", Toola thought as he marveled his latest creation, "That fool couldn't see that it this ship gather fuel like his ship and the Aurian ships do." Toola then sat in his command chair, "This should provide me a trump card until I gain back the evil took to preserve himself. Chimera has no idea how right she was but at least the evil drained Bedlam as well so he couldn't take advantage of the situation." As he cast the thought aside, he looked at the fiends around him. Even though the ship could have been automated, Toola decided to use fiends so he could have a backup in case of system failure, "Weapons?"
"Weapons scan is almost complete sir", another fiend answered before the scan was finished, "Currently grown weapons are ready my lord."
"Marvelous", Toola said as he got up and looked at the weapon controls, "Bio plasma cannons, various kinds of spike missiles, anti-armor acid, and seed assault pods plus more weapons to come as I modify it. Even the Aurians will have trouble besting it." Toola then looked at Bedlam's ship, "Let's find someplace more quite to test this wonder of bioengineering."
"There is the old testing field in the next system sir", Toola's second in command informed his master.
"I guess if they're there we should use them", Toola sighed as he couldn't wait to test his ship on a target that could fight back, "Get us out of the system and go to warp three." Toola then sat in his chair again as he saw the stars flyer by, knowing he had brought yet another terror to the universe.
This is the 36th part of my eighth Get Ed story. As before, if anyone has any suggestions or comments, please let me know. Thank you in advance.
