Nightmare

By: Random echo

A Zoids fan fiction

Authors note: It takes me awhile to get the chapters out, finals are coming up. Once schools out I'll be able to have time to finish. Its quite a long story line yet. Sorry for any grammar/ spelling mistakes. Flamers, don't waste your time! For those of you who wanted Bit/Leena, I'll fit it in. ^_^

Disclaimer: I don't own any of zoids characters, or etc.

Normally you can tell the future of the chapter just by reading the first sentence. Example, if you were to read lets say a happy book the first sentence would probably be something to the certain extend 'Once upon a time in a cheerful content village...'

Although in this chapter, not that many good things are in store yet for the teenager Leena Toros as she just joined the fray. So instead of a wonderfully happy book with a charming first sentence, the first sentence in this chapter would be more like 'Leena's head pounded, as she reloaded her zoids gun once more, and depressively shot at all the targets destroying them.' which should automatically tell you this chapter had not lead Leena into the best of moods. More like judging on the first sentence 'Leena's head pounded' making her not feel to great, and 'depressively shot all the targets' which here would mean sadly, and in a depressed manner shot all the targets which she didn't take great pride in.

So anyway by this first sentence already you know the chapter isn't the greatest of all, it could get worse, or it could get better.

Leena's head pounded, as she reloaded her zoids gun once more, and depressively shot at all the targets destroying them. Her surroundings went black, and then the flickering dim lights overhead came on revealing her spot in the practice room. Leena shook her head basically trying to shake the feeling off. Caroline came over the microphone from her place in the viewing room up above her. "Right that's it for today."

Leena slid out a disk no more the size of a game boy game, slipped it in her pocket then exited the zoid named the 'Syphon'. Leena passed the tests with flying colors. Her targeting still needed some work although that's something she always needed help on. Overall Leena had to agree the Syphon was an amazing zoid. Recalling from the first time she got introduced to it.

'She trudged along behind 'the boss' as they proceeded into the hanger.

Her eyes that once were lowered to the ground, as she pondered pessimistic things about her future, she staggered back when she saw the very edge of the zoid they called the SF. *From her point of view looking it down to up* Midnight black like a empty void, stood on two feet, but could easily use the other to when fleeing, here something the Syphon never did. It had a long tail with a hyper cannon beam on it, long enough to wrap around an enemy zoids neck, and flip it over. Next to the hyper cannon beam there was a long deadly blade. Although other then that it was stripped down. "What is this, it only has one gun!"

"I'd beg your pardon to stop making false accusations about the Syphon prototype like that." A voice, Caroline to be precise came up behind her. The boss nodded , and continued where she left off.

"The Syphon is far more powerful then anything you've ever came across."

"Then why'd you pick me!?!?!?"
"Why not."'

Leena woke up from her little day dream, and headed down to the 'bunker'. The bunker is a bedroom where a few people stayed. Leena glanced around the room to make sure none of the others were there, and slide the disk into a player to read the data.

***Disk info...***

16 years ago from the day I secure this information, CORE forces attempted to make the best of zoids, one that excelled at close range combat and far. Had perfect offense and defense. Had 12 different modes that could transform into on the battle field. Plains to make the ultimate zoid. The original creator of the project Neoko Silverstone designed the prototype. Everyone was awaiting the arrival of this new zoid from Project Syphon. In mid ending of the project the Syphon prototype went berserk.............................searching......................CORE bases were destroyed, the Syphon prototype went on a rampage.......................six years later, six years of terror, tracking down the Syphon finally ended, as the 'new' CORE regained the zoid, and deactivated it. Despite Silverstone's protests they created new less powerful and controllable versions of the Syphon. Only one was a success. They called it the Nightmare. Originally for the end of a nightmare, or the beginning of one................searching..............five years later Silverstone had a plain not to waste the power of the Syphon. To defeat the nightmare. To regain her pride. Silverstone created a disk accessible to the thirteenth mode. The disk was called K.T.T.P Key to the prototype. With mode thirteen the Syphon wasn't just a prototype anymore............CORE's council thought that outrageous, the Syphon KTTP was to powerful...they called thirteenth mode Filter, to filter out all its flaws(I was trying to think of a name for a zoid other then what I used in my other ones, and my brother was playing Syphon Filter so I got this strange idea.).........Silverstone disappeared............The K.T.T.P. was missing.....Syphon was captured by enemy side....war between Nightmare and Syphon began..................................no more data available.....'

Leena sat in shock, then heard a sharp noise coming down the hall, and quickly slipped the disk into her pocket.

The door flung open, and 'Sugar' walked in. 'Sugar' was a nickname for one of their best assassins, that stayed in the same bunker at Leena. Sugar had blue hair in this bow, and red eyes. No one really gets a good look at her. She was followed in by James another assassin holding an M-16. Leena glanced away, the last thing she wanted to do was make these people mad.

Leena slowly went toward the exit only to be knocked down by Shadow, her brother was killed in battle, so she went for revenge or something. Her motto was 'Little sister don't miss when she aims a gun.'

Tumbling toward the door, she sped down the hall knocking into a few people on her way. Suddenly she hit a figure so large, it sent her tumbling onto the floor. "Ah Lt0Sf, glad I found you. Now be a great time to test your new skills." It was some man she hadn't ever seen before.

"Against who." Leena asked why standing up.

"The ZBC's giving us a little bit of trouble....."
