The black ship docked on a dark building underground. The two ACs left and arrived at the hangar, with mechanics coming immediately to repair the damage. The silver core shined in the dim light, as Izzy stepped out. He walked into a door and onto a catwalk above the streets. He ran over to a large building with the Murcorp logo on it. He walked inside.
A large building with shining mirror tiles on the floor awaited him. Hundreds of people were walking around, buying and selling goods. Ammo, to be exact. Murcorp was an ammo company. Izzy walked in back past a do not enter sign, and through the hallways. He entered another dark room near the back of the building, and a man was standing in the corner. It was too dark to see him. He threw a bag of money at Izzy, who left out the back door into the city. He went into his home and rested a bit. He had a nice house, full of photos and old books. He was only there once a week usually, because of his work. It paid nicely though.
He had a small room with a few pictures of people and a small bed. He was laying down on the bed, looking at the lights on the roof of the city. He heard a knock and went to the door. He opened it, revealing a man with a mustache and brown eyes. He was wearing old western clothes, and had brown hair. "Ah...hey Gray" said Izzy. "Come in"
He came in and sat down at the wooden table. Homes now hadn't changed much since they moved underground, so everything looked like a normal surface home. Gray looked around the room. "Haven't changed much, I see. We should go on a mission again sometime." he said.
Izzy sighed and said, "Well, sure. Me, you and Marie could come sometime too." as he stood up to get a drink, another knock came. Izzy opened the door and saw Marie there. Izzy looked at her. "Hey...came for the money?"
She looked up at him. "Yup! I'm not missing out on that machinegun, plus you still have that shell handgun I shoved in your core."
Izzy laughed and pulled out the bag of money. "Let's split it, come in and we can sort it out." he said. They sat down and Izzy started to sort the cash. Marie looked over at Gray.
"Hey Gray. Anything new?" she asked.
"Nothing much. I gotta test out my new AC design! Call me if you need a mission partner..." he said, pulling out a small pen-like object. He pushed to top of it, and a green screen appeared beside it, and a keyboard below it. He started typing on it, and soon came to a wireframe of a medium-sized core. It had machinegun arms and quad legs. It also had an arrowhead-shaped head, and two pulse cannons on it's back. "I call it Heavy. It's real color is blue, but you can't see that on the wireframe."
She looked at it. It looked impressive and light, making it a formittable foe. It's machineguns would work well in battles, and even in tight spaces it would have decent armor because of the somewhat heavy legs. "You're a genius, Gray. How do you do all this?" she asked. He laughed.
"Hey, here's your half." said Izzy, handing her a bag. She put it away and walked to the door.
"See you guys later..." she said, leaving the house. Gray got up.
"I should go too..." he said. He left the house. Izzy also walked out. He went up the catwalks and into the garage. Various ACs were there, including the one Gray had just shown him. Marie's and a black one were also there. The black one was lightweight and had no visible weaponry. He thought of it as strange, but walked up to his. He went to a computer terminal and there was a wireframe of his AC on it. Also, a password screen was up to prevent unwanted changes. He typed in his password, "Wrath of Steel". The wireframe came up, along with a selection of affordable or already owned equipment to the left. He spent some time moving the weaponry around and came upon his laser rifle, called the "KARASAW 1-38". He dragged it onto his core, and noticed it was quite large. He finished up, equipping a better generator and FCS, and then locked it to the password again. Mechanics came to change to equipment as he left.
He walked up to a row of computers and sat in one. A list of available jobs were up. One requiring three ACs to work for a "Kisaragi" corperation. He entered the breifing and saw the other two were filled up with the Black AC from earlier, and some odd tank core. He signed up anyway, the job was starting tommorow. He left the place, and noticed the Black AC starting up and going out. It must've had another mission. Izzy went back home and went to sleep.
