Mediziner's Notes: Really gotta love the copy and paste method, I actually missed this sort of thing since coming back here. I'll try to be as active as I can after I get all of the already made chapters reuploaded. Another thing to note is that my chapters are all monthly uploads so that I have all of a particular month to get a chapter done. I try to make my chapters as chunky as possible, rather than just at 1k words or so. A couple of them might be shorter than others, but I usually reach about 230 lines with my more later chapters. Some of the older ones are less which was during when I haven't decided on how lengthy I wanted my chapters to be. Any criminals I throw into the story will be unnamed because I'm not the best at names.

...

The next morning, everyone's minds were still wrapped around the topic of how they were going to deal with the language barrier between them and their guest. Ideas would be occasionally thrown out, but all of them were disagreed upon after carefully thinking them out. They continued to suggest ideas until by the time they made it upstairs to the office room, their attention had pulled away from each other over to where Radiant Prism was on the floor below the window. At the same time, the foreign Brave had been jolted awake by the sound of the doors opening, announcing their entry. At first she wondered why were they back in here so late, but then after briefly glanced at the clock and seeing the sun's rays pouring faintly through the closed blinds, she brought her attention back to them "...Good Morning." She greeted them after a bit of a pause. Despite the language barrier, the others seemed to quickly pick up on what she said. Drill Boy, seeming happy about that she spoke. He replied mid-way but cut himself off before he could finish, thinking that if he said 'good morning' to her in Japanese, she wouldn't understand. Instead, he made an attempt to repeat the words in her language as best as he could, though his attempt at the German language ended up with Power Joe and a few others doubling over in a laughing fit.

"H-Hey! I tried my best, okay!?" Drill Boy snapped in irritation. For a short while, their attention was focused on one another. Radiant Prism slowly yet reluctantly pulled herself up to her feet as she struggled to hide the pain upon getting back up on her feet. As she silently walked over to them while masking the pain in her feet as best she could, she had managed to put one of her feet flatly on the ground that made an excruciating amount of pain shoot up, causing her to lift her foot just slightly, using the desks to support herself but now had the fronts of her feet on the floor while her heels were held up to avoid the pain as much as possible despite still lingering but less than just a few seconds ago. When she saw that everyone had their attention on her, Radiant Prism wasn't sure how she could tell them, she thought out how she could describe, then spoke.

"My heels are damaged..." She spoke, seeming to hesitate on what she's going to say next, but continued. "When we came here, I have unfortunately worsened my condition, but I chose not to show it. ...Though flying all the way here without taking occasional breaks to avoid wear proved to be a severely bad idea on my end... But I had to get here as soon as I could." She finished with a shake of her helm, frowning.

The others simply listened but had no idea what she was even saying. Everyone looked to one another, as if wondering if anyone had the answers to know what she was trying to tell them, but eventually when they saw her try to move away from the desk but her heels remained off the floor, Duke spoke up. "We should bring her downstairs to Toudou. With the way how she's walking, I think she's been trying to tell us she's injured."

"But, she looked just fine yesterday." Drill Boy replied bemusedly and a bit of a frown. "What's going on...?"

"It's possible that she was masking her pain when she was still very wary of us last night." Shadowmaru spoke next. "She still shows some slight signs of fear and uncertainty towards us but fortunately not as much as last night. However, I should remind that the topic still remains where we need to introduce her to the mechanics, slowly and carefully if we are to get her language system updated."

As the others talked among each another on what they'll do, Radiant Prism watched them silently as she wasn't sure what she could say. But when she saw Duke took one of her arms, she became tense when the Mech suddenly lowered himself just briefly so that he'd drape her arm over his shoulder. "What are you doing?" She asked him cautiously, when her whole feet were flat on the ground, she winced as she immediately lifted her heels off the floor to avoid as much pain as possible, balancing again on her fronts.

"I don't get why she chose to hide her pain from us. She could have been honest with us from the start." Power Joe spoke.

"We'll find out once Toudou repairs her and additionally update her language system with the Japanese language." Duke replied. "Deckerd will be here soon, once we've managed to somehow get her to trust Toudou and the others, we can begin resuming our search for the criminal still at large." He finished, leaving with Radiant Prism in tow.

When the two made their way down into the repair bay shortly afterwards despite slowly, they were greeted to the sounds of noisy tools as mechanics left and right were busying themselves away at whatever they were working with. Radiant Prism froze upon seeing how many humans there were as she tensed upon seeing some of them having tools in their hands, not liking where this was going as she looked at Duke warily. 'Does he intend on having me repaired, or have these mechanics dispose of me...?' She thought to herself, seeming to resist walking further but as soon as Duke stepped forth, she was forced to walk added that she couldn't do much with the damage to her feet. Thinking more into it, she had no doubt that it would possibly hurt even more now if she tried to fly again as well.

Toudou turned his attention from some schematics he was going over with a fellow mechanic, immediately spotting Duke upon hearing his footsteps but was immediately surprised to see another that he had not recognised. Excusing himself as he gave the schematics back to his fellow co-worker, he walked up to the two robots and greeted them.

"Hello, Duke. Who's this?" He asked curiously.

"She's someone Drill Boy found while on patrol last night. Deckerd says her name is Radiant Prism." Replied Duke, keeping the German Brave from backing up. "She has damage to her feet and needs repairs."

The Chief Mechanic carefully examined Radiant Prism's feet, quick to notice immediately that she was keeping her heels off the ground, not standing on her whole feet flatly as he could see she was trying to avoid the pain as much as possible. Aside from the problems in her feet, he saw nothing else visible that was bothering her. "I see... Let's get her hooked up to one of the docking cradles here." Toudou gestured them to a vacant docking cradle as Radiant Prism stared with a frown, though looked at Duke, he encouraged her to step forward with a slight tilt of his helm. Looking at the docking cradle for a brief moment, she slipped off of Duke and moved away from him, giving herself space to turn around and face the Knight Detective, arms crossed somewhat.

"I did not come all this way just to be taken apart by your mechanics." She suddenly spoke with a shake of her helm. Her foreign language was enough to cause the others to pause and stare, wondering what she's saying. Despite no longer struggling nor resisting, Duke simply stared at her in disbelief, unable to understand what she was trying to say but was ready to react in case she might try and run away, and the sight was enough to make some of the mechanics back up in case something might happen. All the Mech could really do was gesture towards the docking cradle silently, in which earned a bemused expression from the German Brave. As Duke continued to try and get her to stand in the docking cradle, she didn't seem to move which was serving to further frustrate him. Never had he thought that he would have to deal with an issue as this, added that the main problem altogether aside from everything else was the language barrier.

A little while later, the sounds of a car driving in caught their attention.

"What's going on here?" Deckerd asked as he came to a full stop, changing out of his vehicle mode shortly after Yuuta climbed out of his interior.

"Radiant Prism is injured, I've brought her down here to get repaired but she refuses to step into the docking cradle... Both the language barrier and her fear of humans doesn't help with this situation at all." Duke replied with a slight frustrated sigh. "Things would've been far more easier if she could also get the Japanese language updated into her language system.

"Eh? Toudou's going to replace her foreign language with our language?" Yuuta asked curiously, his attention to the Chief Engineer.

"No, that's impossible." The Chief Mechanic shook his head. "Everyone has to start with a primary language in their programming. Trying to replace their primary language they're programmed with would cause a mess of all sorts of problems. Any attempts to replace Radiant Prism's primary language with ours or any other language could cause her to have problems communicating or it can even destroy her since she's created with German as her primary language. Duke, for example being constructed elsewhere like Radiant Prism except his primary language is English, not German nor Japanese. If we were to replace his primary language for another, the results will have the same exact effect if I were to do this with him."

Yuuta nodded, though shuddered at bits of the explanation. "I wouldn't want that to happen to anyone... I can't imagine if anyone tried to replace Deckerd's or anyone else's primary language that would result in more than just hurting them... But, if we can't replace Radiant Prism's primary language, then how can she understand and communicate with us?"

"Very simple: We update her language system which means her primary language remains intact, but the addition of another language is implemented which allows her to communicate with us without any risks of data corruption and is completely safe." Replied Toudou.

"Yes, Lady was also aware of this when she updated my language system with the addition of this language before coming here." Duke nodded in response.

"So if Radiant Prism is getting her language system updated, will the others also get different languages installed into their systems too?" Yuuta couldn't help but ask.

"That's an optional choice." Replied Toudou. "If they want to communicate in other languages, we can provide that. However, in the case of Radiant Prism, she needs her language system updated in order for us to understand her, and she can understand and communicate with us in return."

"That's incredible they could learn another language with just an update." Yuuta was clearly surprised at this. His attention returned to Radiant Prism, however this went noticed by Deckerd when he saw his friend begin approaching her slowly.

"Wait Yuuta, she's still afraid of humans..." He warned his friend worryingly.

"If she's a police officer like us and everyone else, she won't think about hurting any of us. She didn't attack when she backed away from us last night, right?" Yuuta told Deckerd as he began to slowly approach the foreign Brave much to Deckerd's constant worry, fearing that things will go terribly wrong in the blink of an eye. As Yuuta continued to slowly approach but stopped to a certain point when he noticed Radiant Prism slowly starting to back up slightly. The young boy thought for a moment on how he could try and gain her trust until he then he held up one of his hands, palm facing upwards while pointing with his other hand. He watched patiently as Radiant Prism seemed confused at this until after giving it some thought, she seemed to take a slight step back at this once she made out what the small child in front of her had asked her. Uneasily, she pointed towards herself as if wondering about if he was asking her to do what he showed her, which Yuuta smiled in response with a nod. Everyone else remained silent as they watched the scene unfold, though many like Deckerd expressed concern for Yuuta's safety.

Deckerd, growing more and more concerned, attempted to step forward to get his friend but ceased when he felt a servo on his shoulder.

-Wait.- Duke spoke through private communications. -If we're to help Radiant Prism regain her trust in humans again and cooperate in getting her repairs started, I have no doubt that Boss can help her, even in the smallest of steps.-

Deckerd reluctantly looked at both Yuuta and Radiant Prism, Duke was right yet he was still protective of his friend as he feared that one wrong move and Yuuta could be severely hurt unintentional or not. After about roughly three minutes, Radiant Prism hesitantly began to kneel slowly despite the pain that was apparent upon doing so. She proceeded to lower her servo, palm upwards in offering to let him climb on albeit hesitantly. While Yuuta himself would without hesitation climb up into Deckerd's or anyone else's servo when they offered, he had to go slow with the foreign Brave as to not worsen her distrust of humans. As he approached, he noticed that up close, her servo was a bit different compared to the others as it was neither fully unpainted nor fully painted, but rather half-painted where the entire palm and the base of her digits that otherwise gave the impression of fingerless gloves. Slowly, he brought one of his hands to lightly touch one of Radiant Prism's digits to be careful, which she responded by pulling her servo away with a flinch.

"It's okay." Yuuta spoke gently, reaching out to her. "We just want you to be repaired."

All sorts of thoughts ran through Radiant Prism as she studied the young boy in front of her. When her optics shifted towards the other mechanics, her attention was drawn back to Yuuta when he spoke once more. "Ah, They're not going to hurt you, even though you may not understand we just only want to help you."

Despite the language barrier, the German Brave thought on it for a bit, until eventually she stood up as best she could, then glanced behind as she began to slowly and carefully back up into the docking cradle, situating herself properly and, albeit reluctantly, brought her heels to the ground despite she hissed in pain at having to put her feet flat on the floor.

"I'll accept their help, but please do not let them take me apart." Radiant Prism said, shaking her helm mid-way through her sentence.

Everyone waited for a bit longer until eventually the repair bay was filled with a small applause. Yuuta looked all around him and, embarrassed, rubbed the back of his neck.

"Great, with Radiant Prism situated in the docking cradle, we can actually start working on repairing the damage to her legs and update her language system." Said Toudou as he watched his mechanics gathered the equipment needed to repair Radiant Prism, to which she allowed them to approach albeit it was clear she was hesitant, clearly shown when she was hooked up to the cradle's machines via cables. "We'll be sure to scan her thoroughly in case she may have other problems aside from her feet needing repair."

"Boss is indeed unique, and does continue to amaze without failure." Duke spoke next, having watched the whole thing unfold and despite not expressing it, he was completely taken aback at how he handled the situation well even though it was highly dangerous and posed a high risk that he could get himself hurt, yet he was brave to keep on trying to earn her trust. How exactly does Yuuta know the solution to these things? Pushing those thoughts aside, the Mech glanced over towards a nearby clock he spotted hanged up on the wall, noticing the time as he focused back to Deckerd and Yuuta. "With this situation sorted, we should head upstairs and begin searching for the criminal that's still at large."

"Agreed." Replied Deckerd as he knelt down and gently picked up Yuuta when his friend immediately approached them.

Back upstairs, the team were going through both pictures and video footage that Shadowmaru found in his search while patrolling. Some shots in particular were suspicious as the criminal was seen in some of them wearing a military uniform like that of the air force which left others with much needed answers. After some thorough thinking, some would state that it was highly possible that they were working alongside another criminal that kept to the shadows, in which it was agreed on further upon further explanation. With a few input commands, the large screen changed to display the criminal's record. "Here it says that they've committed other crimes roughly six years ago." McCrane pointed out. "Smuggling and even made illegal purchases of robotic equipment."

"I don't think we'll need to know what they plan to do with that jet they stole..." Dumpson frowned.

"Convert it into a piloted robot." Deckerd replied, inputting some commands on his computer to now display the experimental jet, though most of it's info were highly classified. "Worse, that jet in particular the criminal stole is a brand new jet in development for the military designed to take on multiple roles, far more than all other existing military aircraft around the world today. The only info we're given is that it's still currently in the experimental stage and has not even made it to prototype stage yet."

"Considering their past record, it's possible they will strip the jet of some of it's valuable parts and it's advanced technology to sell or smuggle to other criminals who in turn may use against us." Shadowmaru pointed out.

"We should act now before it's too late. Perhaps start by searching some of these key locations from the footage thoroughly, see if we can find anything to shed some light on a lead to follow." Duke advised.

Yuuta nodded. "Let's find that criminal and arrest them!"

"Yes, Boss!"

...

As the search began, Deckerd and Yuuta had both just arrived at one of the locations from the footage which appeared to be a set of decarying warehouses long since abandoned. Everyone else went to other key locations while Shadowmaru and Drill Boy searched from up in the skies. Climbing out of the driver's seat, Yuuta looked around as Deckerd changed form as they began searching one of the warehouses, the latter having to crawl through the small opening. "What did people used to do here back then?" Yuuta said, keeping his voice down.

"Perhaps these warehouses were once used for storage, companies would bring trucks here to load them with goods." Came Deckerd's reply as he looked at the nearby shelves. "Strange... This place normally would have had thick layers of dust from many years of abandonment, yet there's very little here..." Turning around a corner, Deckerd stopped when he heard the sound of glass loudly shattering and crunching as he moved his foot to see that he had stepped on what once was possibly some discarded empty glass bottles he failed to spot.

Jumping at the sound but clapping his hands over his mouth to avoid making a sound, Yuuta turned towards the source of the noise.

"Deckerd...!" He exclaimed in a whisper.

Before Deckerd could apologise, voices could be heard as the large doors were slowly coming to an open. Quickly thinking, Deckerd looked around and immediately noticed some old covers used to cover large stacked goods which also was just large enough to hide himself. "Yuuta, over there." The Mech quickly made his way over towards the covers as quiet as he could, draping a couple over himself while Yuuta hid with him. Deckerd's visibility being limited to only just a small tear in the covers as he kept his optics dimmed, all he could see just barely were two men entering the warehouse while Yuuta could easily peek in between said layers of covers, getting a better view of the two men that had just entered the warehouse.

"...You're sure that none of the Brave Police tailed you to this location?" One of them asked warily.

"Never suspected a thing." The other replied immediately with a chuckle, their voice unmistakable as both Deckerd and Yuuta watched and listened from their cover. "It took considerably longer to make sure that none of the Brave Police saw me when I drove to this place considering this area's abandonment. There's two from them that also fly, and have eyes as sharp as a hawk which were a bit more harder to avoid than the others. Now, moving onto business... I've got the goods just as you asked for, right over here." The criminal lead the other to a small hidden stash they've had hidden away out of clear sight, hidden away under a panel of an old broken machine. Being secured with a few combination locks, it only took them less than a minute to unlock it and open up the stash. "Here we go. Some highly advanced technology system that the military intended on using with one of their upcoming new toys. Relatively an easy steal with the right set of items, though the slight difficult part was waiting for the right moment to take off when there's very little at and around base. Got a bit slightly banged up in my escape, but they couldn't risk shooting it down in fear of losing what has been just newly developed. The technology contained within should be powerful enough to finally take on the Brave Police themselves once we make loads of copies of these babies, we'll be rich selling these off to criminals eager to get their hands on them."

"The Brave Police have indeed been a thorn in every criminal's sides since the project came into effect a year and a half ago. With technology this advanced far more than what we've got in the palm of our hands and what's available to the public, the Brave Police will be nothing but out of date rust buckets once we're through with them." The other criminal replied sleazily. "Not only that, both the police and the military will be powerless against us criminals for once. Now let's get out of here before someone notices us."

"Technology far advanced...? Yuuta, call for the others." Whispered Deckerd, knowing that they were going to need backup. "Make sure you adjust the volume to avoid giving away our position when contacting the others.

"R-Right..." Yuuta did as told and quickly contacted everyone to their location, Responses were returned with affirmatives and that they were on their way. Having done that, the two criminals have already left the warehouse, both Deckerd and Yuuta came out of hiding and ran towards the exit. "Shadowmaru and Drill Boy should be arriving here first." He told Deckerd as the latter brought out his handgun and jogged towards the exit. Deckerd slid under the opening, quickly getting back up on his feet, training his handgun.

"Hold up! Brave Pol-"

"Surprise!" A voice called out as the Brave Detective was struck from behind. Recovering, Deckerd turned around intending to land a punch at the attacker but dodged just before his fist could make contact.

"A bio-machine!" Yuuta exclaimed as he watched the being had leapt in the air as a result of dodging Deckerd's attack, intending to come crashing back down with it's large two clawed like servos, in which Deckerd swiftly avoided the incoming attack. With how fast and agile it was, he knew it was impossible right now to issue the unification command. Fortunately, he didn't need to think on that for long when he heard the sounds of jets in the skies, spotting Shadowmaru and Drill Boy who had just arrived. Concerned about the speed of this bio-mecha, he knew what he was about to say might sound risky, but had no doubt that they could at least distract the criminal long enough to give Deckerd the unification command to become J-Decker. "Drill Boy, Shadowmaru, deal with the bio-mecha! Be careful though, it's fast!"

"Got it, Miniboss." Came Shadowmaru's reply.

As they got to work, Yuuta watched as Deckerd backed up as told by the two. His friend had to make sure that they had the criminal's complete attention, but when it seemed like they were struggling, it was then Gunmax, who arrived in Armour form managed to provide some backup from a few meters up in the air. Duke and the Build Team also had just arrived as they called for Yuuta to give the unification command. The young boy did as told and gave the unification commands first to both Deckerd and Duke as they combined into their respective forms. Just as the combinations had been complete, both Shadowmaru and Drill Boy had been whacked aside by one of the bio-mecha's arms, followed by one of those very same arms stretching out, grabbed Gunmax Armour and slamming him down into one of the nearby warehouses.

Backing up, the criminal cackled. "I think it's time we spice things up now that I've waited patiently for your friends to get stronger!" Shortly after that, the being they piloted began to undergo changes as it seemed to have grown bulkier, while bits of metal started sprouting out from parts of it's body like protruding spikes, the muscles all over it's body as it seemed to bulk up, then seemingly shying away from the entire lower arms and legs, revealing durable metal armour underneath.

"What the heck...? Did it just grow or generate metallic arms and legs...?" Power Joe asked slowly.

"Yuck." Gunmax made a slight face, having witnessed the change after picking himself back up.

"Th... This has to be the weirdest bio-machine I've ever fought." Replied Drill Boy, completely weirded out by the scene.

"Everyone, prepare yourselves!" J-Decker called out just as he witnessed a different chance in the bio-machine, now seeming to grow larger as everyone watched in complete shock.

"Boss, the unification command!" Called out McCrane. Yuuta nodded as he gave the unification command to the Build Team, combining into Super Build Tiger. The bio-mecha eventually was no longer changing and growing in size, they engaged the criminal which was what they had wanted.

"Let the fun begin!" They began pushing some commands into the console they had stripped off of the experimental jet, and soon enough everyone paused as they watched the machine begin to duplicate itself.

"Wh-Where's the real one!?" Exclaimed Duke Fire.

Another laugh came from the criminal as they all began to swarm the Brave Police. Yuuta watched in horror as hundreds of the duplicated bio-mecha attacked everyone from all sides with impressive speed, not letting any of them ready themselves to attack or counter.

"No good, I can't find where the real criminal is among all these fakes..." Shadowmaru groaned, feeling a nasty headache coming on as he attempted to discreetly look for the real target out of the duplicates while using his two swords to block incoming attacks. "The advanced technology they stole... It's messing with my sensors. It's continuously giving me all sorts of false information, I can't find the real one."

"What about tracking it by scent?" J-Decker asked.

"All of my sensors are giving me false information, I can't be of any help there... Sorry J-Decker."

Another maniacal laugh escaped the criminal. "You're all nothing more than a pair of out-of-date machines! This technology has everything and is far more capable than any of you combined, none of your fancy tricks can work against a highly more advanced, superior machine!" As the illusions began their attacks, Yuuta watched in horror as everyone stood strong against the multitude of enemies attacking from all around them like a swarm of angry bees. He knew that despite holding their own, they can only hold for so long until they fall. 'What should I do... That criminal is going to defeat everyone if I don't do something...' He thought to himself worriedly, looking around until when he spotted something he hadn't noticed before. 'Is that a shadow...? But then...' Looking at the other duplicates of the bio-machine that possessed none. "I see now!"

Yuuta immediately brought out his communicator. "Everyone! Focus your attack on the bio-machine with a shadow! Only one of them has a shadow and he's on the ground, giving you a chance to get him."

Shadowmaru glanced towards where most of the duplicates on the ground were gathered, he too began to notice the shadow and after dodging an incoming duplicate, he quickly changed into his car mode, speeding off towards his target. Swerving out of the way of the incoming attacks, Shadowmaru then proceeded to change into dog mode with the intention of tackling his opponent as he swiftly dodged an incoming attack by one of it's claws. As he predicted, the criminal quickly went airborne. "Sensors or not, you can't escape my sights." Changing form again this time into his jet mode.

Meanwhile, the duplicates have seemed to stop multiplying when they realised that Shadowmaru was dealing with the real criminal. Once the last were dealt with, they all took to the skies to assist Shadowmaru. "It appears to be a lot more slower in the air than it is on the ground." Said Duke Fire. "Look at how less agile the criminal's movements are."

"Avoid using powerful firepower if we're to recover the advanced technology they stole. We cannot afford to risk damaging or worse, destroying it." J-Decker said, bringing out his electric police baton. "Unfortunately, the experimental jet itself cannot be saved but our top priority is getting the systems that were installed into this bio-machine back to the company responsible for creating it." His words were met with affirmatives as they finally reached the bio-mecha, they got to work and coordinated their attacks. Super Build Tiger had to refrain from using any of his ranged attack, not wanting to risk damaging or even destroying their objective and unfortunately had to limit himself to attacking unarmed. Both Gunmax Armour and Shadowmaru distracted and confused the criminal while Super Build Tiger had to wait for the right moment to grab the criminal once their attention had focused completely on the two, and once he was sure that their attentions were completely drawn to them added by outstretching those arms to attack, he flew upwards quickly and grabbed hold of the bio-mecha by the base of their arms.

"Now J-Decker, Duke Fire!" Super Build Tiger waited for the right moment as both Mechs were ready with their respective melee weapons, intending on destroying the arms of the criminal's bio-machine.

"No you don't!" Exclaimed the criminal as they hastily typed in a few commands on the console. While nothing seemed to happen, it was then Shadowmaru began screaming in agony which forced him out of his jet form as both servos were on his helm as if there was so many loud sounds going off all at once near his ears. The others, meanwhile were bemused at this as they couldn't hear anything. "Shadowmaru, what's happening?" Yuuta called through the communicator.

"Tick tock, tick tock Brave Police... What will it be... Release me, sparing your friend or don't and I'll increase the frequency even further to the point that it's systems will explode to the point of death!"

"Damn it...!" Cursed Gunmax Armour, looking to his ally. Whatever the Ninja Detective was hearing that was causing him this much pain, he knew the others had to act fast and do something about it. He hated situations where he was powerless to do anything as he watched Super Build Tiger let go of the criminal. The others hesitated on what to do, but before anything could happen, a small swarm of shuriken stars sailed through the air until they hit their mark. The bio-mecha's entire torso was covered in the stars lodged into it's body as liquid poured out of the wounds while some managed to sever one of the arms.

"What the heck!? How did I not detect those!?"

"Seems I was right about while you were using that frequency attack that other commands start to disable themselves until inputted again." Shadowmaru spoke, despite clearly in pain from the attack, he wasn't hearing anything that'd otherwise hurt him anymore. "The advanced technology can only have a limited amount of it's abilities going off until you input a new command to make it perform something else, which, at the same time disabled previous attacks inputted."

"Damn you! I'll just have to do this then!" Narrowing his optics, Shadowmaru waited as he could immediately tell that while his sensors were a bit messed up from the attack, he sensed the criminal intending to input new commands...

But nothing happened.

"I've severed several connections located within the tissue to the advanced technology, effectively disabling it from further use."

Angry, the criminal cursed the Brave Police as he attempted to turn and fly away, but only for Duke Fire and J-Decker to suddenly fly into his path. "You're under arrest for multiple accounts of theft, creation of bio-machinery and illegal robotics."

In a last attempt to escape, the criminal used it's one good arm to attack, but only for Duke Fire to sever it clean with his sword before it could even reach J-Decker. It was then this time he finally surrendered upon having no way to escape.

...

With the criminal having been arrested and taken away in a police car, Gunmax Armour volunteered to return the recovered advanced technology back to the developers while everyone else made their way back to HQ. Once arriving, Yuuta climbed out of Deckerd's interior as he stretched his arms. "I haven't seen any major crime since beating the Fahrzeugs a while back." Yuuta said.

"Yes, it's a nice change for once." Deckerd replied, though noticed that Radiant Prism wasn't in the docking cradle anymore.

"Deckerd?" Yuuta followed his line of sight towards the docking cradle their guest was using, but now she wasn't there.

"If you're looking for Radiant Prism, she's upstairs in the shooting gallery." Toudou told them as he approached. "We completed her repairs not too long ago and asked us if she could use the shooting gallery."

"Ah! She can finally speak and understand us now!?" Yuuta exclaimed.

"Yes, though she prefers to speak in her own language but can still understand us. It will take her just a small amount of time for her to adjust to communicating with us, if you give her time."

"She didn't give you guys too much trouble?" Dumpson couldn't help but ask.

Toudou shook his head. "Aside that when we finished her repairs, she still backs away from us when we approach her. For her to trust people again, that will possibly take a lot more time than for her to adjust to our language, and I've tried asking her about why does she back away from us, but she wouldn't give me a proper answer. But, in the meantime it might be a good idea to introduce yourselves after your repairs and check ups are complete, since neither of you had the chance to properly introduce yourselves due to the language barrier. Let's also hope this issue doesn't stop her from dealing with crime in the near future."

"Agreed." Deckerd nodded as everyone approached a vacant docking cradle and adjusted themselves as the mechanics got to work. While not everyone was damaged, it was still important that they needed to at least be examined in case there might've been some internal damage done to them as it was important that everyone was in top working order.

"I'm going up to my office, I'll wait for you guys there once everyone's repaired." Yuuta told his friends.

"Okay, Boss." Came everyone's response.
