Act 1: Forgotten

Chapter 1

From somewhere, a lady screamed for help. She was surrounded by 3 monsters. "Alright" she thought, "If no one is coming to help me, I'm going to help myself" . She prepared to swing her walking stick at them, but suddenly, a figure covered in white jumped in front of her and killed all three of them with three clean swipes of his blade which resembled a katana. "Thank you, but who are you?"she asked. "No one" he replies as he vanished into the shadows before she could even reply.

"Wake up Hazel!" a rough female voice yelled at her. Groaning, Hazel got up from her bed , dressed herself and went to brush her teeth."You're going to be late for work!" the voice outside her small house said."Give me a second Gran, and besides isn't today an off day? "she replied. "NO! HAVE YOU FORGOTTEN AGAIN!?" the voice roared at her. Hazel ran to check her calendar. It was indeed a working day."Cripes i'm going to be late again!"she exclaimed, as she hurriedly brushed her golden-brown hair, got her bag, grabbed a hastily made sandwich and ran out the door. Outside in a nearby lake, a giant sea dragon called out to her "What are you going to do without me, I swear one of these days you'll forget who you are! " "See you later tonight Gran!"Hazel yelled back.

"This is the world that I live in"she thought as she ran towards the Myraid base, she recounted how the world was created. Long ago, a powerful being called the Aegis appeared in this world, he saw that this world was suffering and he decided to help it. He gave the humans titans to live in as most of the worlds land started titans housed most of the population in them under the Sea of Chaos. Later, he gave the humans "blades" he called them, which were powerful humanoid weapons. As time went on, he noticed why the world was slowly dying, it was a massive dragon who slept at the bottom of the sea. Now this dragon was no ordinary dragon, he was bigger than any of the titans the mortals lived on combined, he hated how Aegis brought back the world from extinction and one day decided to rise. The Aegis, thinking that he alone could not defeat the dragon, partnered with a mortal who could handle his power. His name was Luke, anda thousand years ago, they both defeated the dragon. Afterwards, Luke passed away some decades after he had defeated the dragon. But his blade, the Aegis, disappeared. No one knew what happened to him, some people guessed he went back to his world or he died.

"Stop daydreaming Hazel" a voice grumbled. Hazel snapped out of her thoughts and faced the voice who was her captain. "If you go blank again, you're gonna get killed out there" he said. Captain Silver was the leader of the Mechanical Efficient Killer Artifice program or MEKA for short. Supposedly, the Aegis and the hero Luke used a giant robot to take down the dragon, and after both of them had gone, our ancestors decided that in order to protect us from the dragons children, we would need our own robots, thus began the MEKA program. I was lucky to be chosen as a pilot of one of Artifice robots. "Alright team your mission is to take down several sea dragons located around sectors 2, 12, 13, 18 and 21. And Hazel you're not coming" Captain Silver said."What! Why?" I exclaimed. "The chairman has a request for you," he replied. "Alright I'll go to him" as I walked in the locker room to change out of my combat suit."Hey don't so down, you get a meeting with the all important chairman" a sarcastic voice behind me said. I'd recognize that voice anywhere, it was my good friend Ace, no one knows what his real name is. "Shut up Ace, we both know how annoying the chairman is." I replied while taking off my boots."That's not nice of you to say that to a friend and the chairman."he teased. Getting up I put on an experasted smile"Aw, I'm so sorry I dissed your precious chairman" . We both burst out laughing until an alarm sounded. "Well I suppose I should get going," he said "You should too, the chairman doesn't like to be kept waiting " "Alright see you later" I replied. I started walking to the office as the giant Artifice's started jumping in the ocean

"Ah Hazel the very person I wanted to see!" exclaimed the chairman. The chairman was a noppon, meaning small and cute in my eyes, although the chairman was a very serious person, it was hard to think of him as adorable sometimes."You called chairman?" I asked. "Please call me Lana," she replied."Me received a very personal request for Hazy!" "Please never call me that again" I muttered. "Yes, yes me very sorry, anyway a group of people want to hire you for an expedition to the Deep End"she said. The Deep End seemed like a joke name but most pilots know what it truly is, the most dangerous part of the Sea of Chaos."Very well I accept, who do I work with?"I asked. They'll be taking you along their submarine, they need Hazy to navigate the Deep End". I sighed,"Well I suppose I better start packing" as I closed the door.
