Back at the Hover-Cargo.
"Well, this is your Zoid hanger?" Alex asked, her voice echoing off the walls.
"Yup, but before you start your inspection, maybe you would like to see the rest of the hover-cargo. I suppose since you are our sponsor you will be residing with us, right?"
Alex turned around, smiling, "Yeah, I'll be staying here, but, actually, you don't have to provide me with a room. I'll more than likely stay down here. I would really like to start the inspection right away, because it'll take a good…" she paused as a strange look flashed across her face. "How many zoids to you have?"
"Uh, we have my Gunsniper, Bit's Liger 0/zero, Brad's Shadowfox, Jamie's Raynos…and, oh, that's it!"
"Okay. It'll take about 5 days than. "Alex turned and walked towards the Gunsniper.
"You do plan on sleeping, don't you?" asked Jamie to the now focused Alex.
"Mmmm, huh? No, no, I won't sleep until I am finished" she now turned her attention fully onto the Gunsniper.
Doc and the others stared at her for a few moments, "Well… let's go gang." And they left.
********
"Hey, it's already been four days… maybe we should check on her." Advised Bit to the others.
"Yeah, we probably should." Said Leena softly. Brad and Jamie nodded silently, and then they all got up and went down to the Zoid hanger.
"Hey! Where is she?" cried Leena looking around. The others shrugged. They could hear a faint clanging coming from where the Liger 0/Zero was kept. "Hey, Bit? Why is there a clanging sound coming from within the Liger 0/Zero?"
Bit, with a confused look, walked up to the Liger 0/Zero and listened. Then, as if deciding, he knocked on the Liger 0/Zero. They were all surprised when they heard a knock back. All of the sudden, a head popped out of the cockpit.
"What?" asked Alex.
"Were you just inside the Liger 0/Zero?" asked Bit.
"Yeah, I had too, you see. Look there on the Liger 0/Zero's left hind leg. There is a symbol there. It's very small but it's there. It was an indication to me that said to check inside. This Zoid is a very special Zoid. This Zoid is an Ultimate X."
Bit shrugged, "We already knew that."
Alex sighed, "Yes, I figured you did, but this Ultimate X is one of the top three I believe. I'm going to have to research this of course, but I believe that I am correct."
"One of the top three?" asked Doc coming in.
Alex jumped down and straightened her shirt. "Yes. Okay, before I go any further, answer me this: What do you know of the Helic/Gunlyer (A/N, I know that the name of this isn't correct, but work with me.)?"
Most of them looked blank, only Doc seemed to understand, "I only know this: It happened a long time ago, and it started a civilization."
"Well, the first part you have is mildly correct, the second, however, is wrong. The civilization of planet Zi happened a long time ago, approximately 8000 years ago. It happened because planet Earth was in trouble, so they shipped a bunch of people out and to this planet, where they began a new life. Not many years after, Earth called back, the trouble was over, they could return. The people didn't want to though. So they remained.
"2000 years later, that would be 6016 years from today, in the past, Earth and Zi were still in good contact with each other. However, a war sprang up, it was a kind of war like, a Revolutionists and the Government. The war was, as a whole, devastating; but, while the big war was going on, inside there was an even smaller war. Humans against Zoids. And it was, eventually, the smaller war that ended the larger war.
"But from the first civilization to 6016 creatures called Zoids existed, but also creatures called Organoids. Organoids were like actual living Zoids. They could meld with humans and with Zoids. During the war three powerful Organoids surfaced: Zeeg, Kian and Shadow. Eventually, at the climax of the war these Organoids chose the most powerful Zoids and melded with them, permanently. These Zoids were a lion, dragon and dinosaur types/
"At the end of the war, they completely disappeared. Went underground, became fossils, who knows. Other, lesser, Organoids melded too. They all became Ultimate X's but, Shadow, Zeeg and Kian are the most wanted, the most powerful, and they choose the warrior that pilots them."
"So what about the other Ultimate X's? Don't they choose the pilots too?" asked Jamie.
"Yes, and they too, have the ability to learn and memorize opponent Zoid moves. The only difference would be the the three top have different abilities."
Bit looked at her, "What are these abilities?"
"Well, I believe that the two Zoids compromised with Shadow and Kian have the ability to do both Land and Air combat. The Zoid that melded with Zeeg, I believe, has the abilities to use different transformation units in order to enhance speed, dexterity, defence, close range combat and other things. This, I do not know for sure. I would like to see this Zoid in battle... I suppose I will soon enough."
Alex looked behind her and grinned as she saw Leena sneek up to Bit, and poke him in the sides. "Hey!" he yelped and took off after the fleeing Leena. Doc watched them sadly.
"I realize you don't want to let her go, but she's found someone to occupy her time with... you may be her father, but a different sort of love has to enter her life at some time too." Alex said softly. "But, allow Leena to keep busy, I've got some questions to ask you, up in your office."
Doc looked at Alex questionaly, "Okay, what about Jamie and Brad?'
Alex smiled, "I'll talk to them, with the others later. A couple of them are busy anyhow," she said as she lead Doc off.
"Well, this is your Zoid hanger?" Alex asked, her voice echoing off the walls.
"Yup, but before you start your inspection, maybe you would like to see the rest of the hover-cargo. I suppose since you are our sponsor you will be residing with us, right?"
