*Bright summer day*
It was a hot day, hotter than normal. So hot, in fact, that my glasses where fogging up. As I took my glasses off, I looked over in Kirby's direction. He was pulling out a pack of cigarettes. "Kirby!" I yelled, "you know better than that! You're too young to smoke. Get that crap away from me, I don't want to damage my lungs."
"Hold on man, just one smoke real quick. Hey, does anyone have a lighter? The teacher took mine away this morning." Kirby said.
"Yeah, I saw that! You were so busted!" Johnny said.
"Here Kirby, I have mine." I said as I handed him my lighter.
"Dude, I didn't know you smoked." Kirby said shocked.
"I don't," I replied, "I have...just...incase...."
"Incase what?", Kirby interrupted as he lit his cigarette.
"I..." Just then noticed a huge shadow. "Hey, lets get in that shade and out of the sun, I'm burning up!"
"Teaches you to where a black shirt on a day like this Daniel." said Johnny in his normal 'I told ya so' voice.
I looked up as Kirby handed me my lighter back.
"Thanks man." he said.
Then he saw I was looking up and did the same.
"Whhhhooooooooaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhh..." we all said simultaneously.
Kirby was practically doing summersaults.
"Are those Armored cores?" Johnny asked.
"Yeah!" Kirby said, "But I've never seen one up close before!! Jeezz! All I can see is the legs!!"
"Well, I never really liked the idea of AC's." said Johnny. While walking down that street, we could see 5 of them lined up in a row. I assumed they where for protection from the oncoming enemy forces.
"Why not?" Kirby asked, "I love them! All that power! It makes me want to just set things on fire! Hey Daniel, can I see that lighter again?"
"Shut up Kirby, Johnny's right. At times like these, we need to make peace, not destroy each other." I said.
As the three of us kept walking I noticed an old abandoned factory across the street. "Hey," exclaimed Kirby, "we should go into that old building there and see if we can get a better look at those ACs!"
"I don't know," I said nervously, "it looks dangerous."
"Awwww.........come on!" said Kirby.
"I'm going, I have to get home and study for that quiz tomorrow.," said Johnny as he walked away.
"Too bad for you! Come on Daniel! It'll be awesome!", shouted Kirby as he was running toward the factory.
Reluctantly I remembered, "Man, I don't wanna go home yet, I have chores to do. Hey Kirby! Wait up!"
As we entered the factory, we stared in awe as we looked upward. That place was bigger than I thought! It must have been 10 stories high! Kirby, acting like the hyper little speed demon he was, had already gone up 3 floors of stairs. I struggled to catch up.
"Kirby, slow down!", I shouted. I thought to myself Man, I need to lift weights more, this is getting pathetic.
As I watched Kirby start his climb of the 5th stair case I felt the ground shake. The battle must have started.
"Kirby, lets get outta here! It feels like they are fight right outside!", I screamed.
But Kirby said nothing. He wasn't hurt, I could see him. I called his name, but he still said nothing.
I hurried to catch up to him and when I did, I noticed why he was silent. The whole 7th floor was covered in blood! What was weird was the fact that none of it smelled. It must have been there for a long time. We both stepped closer to middle to get a better look.
I walked toward the center of the giant room and saw that there was a circle painted in white where I was standing.
"Kirby, take a look at th..........." Then the whole building started shaking again.
"AHHH! We have to get outta here Kirby!", I yelled. Then, before we even had a chance to move, the floor caved in around us!
*darkness*
"glhgack!" *cough* *cough*
"Uhhh.........What happened?", I said to myself. I notice I had landed on a giant padded pillow of some kind.
"KIRBY!!!!", I yelled. *echoes*
I yelled again, but all I got was echoes again.
"My lighter! That's it!" I reached into my pocket and flipped on my lighter. In the small glow of the lighters flame I couldn't see much. I slowly walked around, feeling to find something I can recognize. After a few minutes of searching I found a wall.
"YESS!!", I yelled, "and where there's a wall, there has to be a door! Or a light switch of some kind."
Feeling around the wall, I found a rounded button with the word 'Grizzle' embedded on it. "Weird light switch."
I pushed it in and nothing happened. "Great, no electricity."
Then I heard some grinding noises.
*BANG!*
"What the.....!" I yelled and jumped forward a bit as something huge hit the floor behind me, echoing.
I turned to find a door way of some kind. I didn't want to go anywhere until I had some light so I didn't go in. I felt around and found switch. As I flipped it upward, a mass of light flooded the room!
"This place is even bigger than that factor I entered." As I looked around, I found Kirby's body in the corner of my eyesight. "KIRBY!!!!!!!!! NNNNNNNNNOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!", I screamed as I ran toward his body. Half crying have angry I pounded on Kirby's chest.
"Don't be dead! Don't you be dead! I told you this place was dangerous! I TOLD YOU!", I screamed.
*clink*
"Why not me?!?"
"WHY?!?!?!?!!??"
*Clunk*
"Wha....?", I turned around with tears falling from my face like a water fall.
*CLANK!*
In all my commotion over Kirby, I didn't even notice that what I had found wasn't a wall. It the foot of a Giant Robot! "It's an AC........But it doesn't look like any AC I've seen. It has parts that look like human limbs! .......Kirby would have loved to see this thing......", I said as I started to cry more.
*Systems check complete*
"What?", I asked as I walked toward it.
*Waiting for human uplink*
"Human up-what?", I asked as I approached the opened doorway. Looking around without actually stepping inside, I saw a hovering chair. It looked really comfortable, so I, carefully, put one foot inside and touched it to the floor.
*nothing*
"Safe.....", I said to myself. As I walked in further I noticed a blue print on the left wall of that small room. It was of an AC. It was this AC! I looked closer at it and noticed it had statistic written all over it. Like someone was trying to solve a problem.
From the parts I could read, it said that this AC was over 70 feet tall and was a 'Heavyweight class'. "Well, I know that it's very tall, but what's with this 'Heavyweight class' stuff? Aren't all AC's heavy?" I read on. "It has new special laser blade arms that can equip weapons too.
Each blade can do a maximum of 1000 damage. That means it can have 4 laser blades at the same time! COOL! Wait........I'm not supposed to be liking this. I want peace........but it's so exciting! A real AC right here! And I'm in it!" Still reading, "It's back weapons are custom as well.
On the right shoulder: a quad missile pod. Each missile does 1200 damage. On the left shoulder: a double barreled cannon. When fire it shoots little magnetic pods that cling to the enemy AC. When activated by the pilot, these pods ignite and overheat the enemy AC. This AC is to be painted with shades of dark brown and gray."
I paused. "Hmm.......sounds Destructive!", I said with madness in my voice. I paused again and shook my head. "What's going on with me?" As I looked at the blue prints further, I noticed that this AC looks a lot like a bear.
"I can't stand it!", I yelled, "I have to take this baby for a test drive!" I hoped in the chair and wondered how to start it up.
After a moment, I felt a sudden pain the right side of my head. "AAAHHHH!!", I screamed. After a few moments of extreme pain, it seemed to go away. I felt the side of my head. "What the.....!!"
I could feel a tube. It was injected into the side of my head. "I gotta get outta here! This is too much!"
*Stay*
"Huh? Who said that?! Kirby!??! Are you alive?!?!"
*Merge with me*
"Kirby! Stop joking around!"
*I'm not Kirby. Push the red button on the dash in front of you.*
"No! I want to go home!"
*Push the button on the dash and I will take you home*
"......ok......", I said reluctantly. That was when my life changed forever.
"*We are one*"
In the distance, a bear like AC could be seen walking towards the center of town.
It was a hot day, hotter than normal. So hot, in fact, that my glasses where fogging up. As I took my glasses off, I looked over in Kirby's direction. He was pulling out a pack of cigarettes.
