DiTS: Part 7
"Fifth setting," Professor H noted, "Then we make modifications."
"Well, Bowie," Doctor J waved, "Go activate it."
This time, the only proof of an explosion was the fact that the device was yet again demolished. No one was thrown around; no one even flinched.
"Well," Quatre looked around apprehensively, "We're here."
"So which direction do we go?" Duo asked.
"There's only one source of high energy output," Heero didn't take his eyes off the small screen, but pointed, "It's that way."
"Of course it'd be the darker corridor," Duo said under his breath.
"Now, Maxwell," Wufei sneered, "You aren't afraid of the dark, are you?"
"After standing up to you, Barton, and Yuy," Lady Une snapped, "I can't see how!"
"This does involve the scientists," Trowa supplied, "Any sane person would be even just a little afraid."
"No one's ever accused Maxwell of being sane," Wufei muttered.
"Let's get going!" Heero snapped as he started down the passageway.
Five young men stood, weapons drawn, in full battle armor. Reminiscent of ancient samurai regalia, each suit was mostly one color. One red, a green, an orange, and two blues: one lighter, one darker. Each teen was armed with a different weapon from his allies: one was an archer, there were two swordsmen; though one actually held two swords, one swung a staff, and another carried a clawed spear.
Doctor J cackled, "Well, boys, I can see you won't give up nicely, so we'll just let them play."
At first, the ones in armor merely blinked, but when T.J. and Ryan swung their staves at the boy in orange, they didn't waste time reacting. The archer drew his bow and began firing quickly; randomly.
Oddler met each energy formed arrow with blasts of his own; the combination of the two energies created flares that nearly blinded the others in the room.
"Ryo!" the green clad swordsman called to the red-armored double- swordsman, "Who are these people?"
The other shook his head as he held off Bowie and Flik, "I don't know, Sage," he jumped away from his two opponents, "but I'm going to try something."
When he jumped into the air, the temperature of the room rose. His friends seemed to be relieved, but the other fifteen were only curious. Fire flashed about the room, but never actually struck anything, as the flames were quickly drawn into a smallish ball near Max.
Ryo blinked. Without thinking, the orange-armed man spun his staff quickly, then crashed it to the ground. The floor of the room buckled and heaved. But, as before, the attack was quickly redirected to the ball.
"Eh?!" the archer gasped, "How did he do that?"
"Rowen!" the one in orange yelled, "Blast that guy!"
When the others nodded, the archer rapidly fired shots at Max. The shots dispersed before they even reached him.
"What?!" Rowen staggered, "How?!"
"Ryo!" the one in orange called again, "We need to try something stronger!"
"Are you sure, Kento?" the spear wielder cautioned, "If Rowen's attack didn't even hit, and yours were absorbed,"
"We have to try!" Ryo interrupted, "Come on, Cye!"
"Wait!" Rowen yelled, "Don't! The more power we give him, the more he can use against us! We have to out smart them!"
"Man, this place is a maze," Duo whined.
"You don't think they'll have a point 'a' to point 'b' set up," Wufei snapped, "do you?".
"Here we are," Heero set to decoding the access panel. Within seconds, the door slid open.
The scene that the doors opened to display was somewhat chaotic. Fifteen youngish men of varying hair colors and clothing styles stood tensely, while the five scientists stood out merely because they were visibly older, and stood more relaxed.
Five of the men stood in suits of armor, and seemed to be attempting to fend the other ten off.
"Wait!" one in blue yelled, "Don't! The more power we give him, the more he can use against us! We have to out smart them!"
"What's going on?" Quatre whispered.
"I have no clue," Wufei returned.
"At least they don't seem to have noticed us," Duo added.
"Ah," Doctor J waved at the doorway, "There you are. How nice of you to join us. Come in boys, come in."
That's the end of DiTS, though eventually I'll get around to continuing the story line, under a different title.
