The New War

Chapter 6

A/N: Okay guys, I know it's been a while. I lost my inspiration for this fic around September. With school staring up again and I was loaded with work. Well the work load is leveling out so I can pick up where I left off.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Inside of the research lab Bit, Toros, and a whole team of scientists were inside of an extremely large hanger. The Blood Liger was standing on a loading dock with a modified version of the CAS system. Arms were ready to remove the Zoid's boosters, the blades, the motors in its legs, and beam gun.

Bit looked at Toros with a worried look on his face. "So all we have to do is remove the armor plating and it will form a new Zoid? How do we know that this auto repair system is strong enough to replace the motor systems and the weapons?"

Toros looked at Bit with a sort of amused look on his face. "We need some Blood Liger Cells to create the Zoid. We will remove the armor units we are using to create the Zoids first. Then we remove the cells from the core."

Bit just had a bored look on his face as he looked up at his partner in all of its glory. "Okay that tells me how to make a Zoid from the Liger. But is the auto repair system strong enough to replace all of those parts we are taking out?"

Toros, now seeing Bit's concern decided to answer his question. "As of now, no. But when Zeek fuses with the Blood Liger the auto repair system will be dramatically boosted making it able to replace the missing parts. The Blood Liger was just born so it still hasn't reached its full power. It is very weak compared to what it will be. I predict that by this time tomorrow the Liger will be at half strength. And in two days it will be at full strength."

Bit just stared at Toros with a puzzled and quizzical look. "How do you know that?"

A scientist came out of the CAS bay (I'll call him Joe) and decided to answer Bit's question. "He knows because of research I've done on Zoids. I was researching the natural life span of Zoids. Zoids grow up from infancy to adulthood in a matter of days. Well Zoids born naturally do at least. Zoids created in factories like most Zoids are now; their Zoid cores are copies of adult cores. Wild Zoids have the longest life span. They have Organoids fused with them most of the time so they live longer because the Organoid speeds up its healing process. The Blood Liger was born of 3 Zoids so in a way it was born naturally."

Bit had completely ignored what Joe was saying. He was more concerned with the Liger. Then out of the shadows Zeek emerged. "It's ok Bit. I've been fused with that Zoid for so long do you think I would let anything happen to it."

Bit looked as if a huge load was lifted off of his shoulders. "Okay. I feel better now. Toros go ahead and remove the parts."

"How did you change your mind so quickly," Toros said a little confused. "Just a minute ago you were about to jump in the Liger and leave this hanger."

Bit looked at Toros. "Zeek just told me everything was okay."

Toros looked a little insulted. "Oh fine. I tell you that and you freak out. Your Organoid tells you the same thing you are cool with it."

"No offense Doc but Zeek knows more about Zoids than you do. He's been around for centuries. The Organoids know everything about Zoids. They were around when Zoids were created," Bit said with a smile on his face while scratching the back of his head.

Toros, "Sure whatever. Begin cell removal."

A laser shot a small hole through the armor of the Liger. Then A mechanical arm went in and removed the cells needed. As soon as the arm left the body the whole just closed up. Zeek then jumped into the air and landed on the Blood Liger. Zeek started to glow. He then began to meld with the Liger. As soon as Zeek had disappeared the Blood Liger began to glow a silver color. After a few seconds the only parts of the Liger glowing were the areas where the parts were removed. As the Liger repaired itself you could see the parts reform before your eyes.

The parts that were taken off of the Liger were floating in tanks waiting for the cells to create the new Zoids. 1 cell was dropped in each tank. As soon as a cell was dropped in a tank the parts inside were drawn right to the cell. Then an Organoid fused with the heap of metal and the single cell. A Zoid Core began to form.

A scientist in the CAS control room was scanning the Blood Liger. Zeek had already separated from the Zoid but the computers were picking up stronger power out put from the Zoid Core. "Dr. Toros I think you should see this."

Toros walked up the stairs to where the scientist was scanning the Liger. "What's up?"

The scientist pointed at the screen. "Um sir the Blood Liger has tripled it power output from the Zoid Core to all of the systems."

Toros then had a surprised look on his face. "So the Blood Liger gets stronger with each injury it recovers from.
