Chapter 7:
A Hero's Destiny section one:
Authors Note: This chapter is in two sections because I can't fit all the notes into the chapter, and introduce the new characters at the same time.
Vahn sat down on his bed and opened the file on the note pad. It was a research journal. He was offered a job as a head scientist on Pioneer 1 and two, but declined both because the job as a hunter was less geeky. He knew what they were talking about through the whole process. The journal read:
October 1st: Started Project Harvest today. Have tested all equipment for gene splices ECT. We are taking DNA from a lizard, an Elemental Photon (Soul), and the DNA of a fast growing mutant.
October 3rd: all processes have been fruitless. We are willing to try one more test, by first infusing the lizard and Photons, and then adding the Mutant DNA.
October 5th: The process worked! We have a wingless purple dragon growing at a phenomenal rate. In the past two days it has grown from two feet long to six feet long! We are happy to see such results.
October 6th:We found Gripphon dead, with nothing wrong with his internal systems. It seems as if he just dropped dead. Only wounds are two comet shaped marks on his cheeks. No scabs, wounds, just purple stains in his skin.
October 7th: Two more dead, same status, but with shocked looks on their faces. People are getting uneasy, but all the projects are going well.
October 8th: Five dead, same state as all the rest. People are getting uneasy. Is one of the experiments doing this? I can't tell. All remain stable, and the Dragon's fangs are very large, and it is 20 feet long!
October 9th: I know how all the lab workers are dying. It's the Dragon, but I've named the Soul Reaper. It is sucking he souls out of lab workers. I have created a weapon that will work, but only those who have touched the Reaper can wield it. I must send these notes to Ton Tonaku and have him tell the Principal of Pioneer 2. I must also send the weapon. I'm going to drug it, and send it into orbit around Ragol, where he can fight it without it terrorizing the city.
Vahn was about to read the next note, but remembered that he had to get clean. He smelled like sweat, mold, and blood. He took a shower, put on black jeans and a hooded black sweater. They all met down in the lobby of the apartment building, and headed down to the garage. When you are called to a mission on Pioneer 2, you don't take your own vehicle. This group of hunters had a tricked-out squad of bikes known around the city as the "Ghost Group". The bikes were white with a curved nose and a Photon shield. They flew beyond traffic speed, and they had licenses to do so. They worked like motor cycles, except they had altitude controls.
They flew to the mall where they were meeting Elly. Vahn said that he had to get the Maverick Blade added to the Tekker registered weapons. Halfway there he bumped into a good friend.
"Bert? Hey bud! Where have ya been?" Said Vahn smiling, with his facemask still on tight.
Bert had a happy face, with blue eyes and Sea green hair. His black and light blue armor made him look very confident.
"Eh hither and thither," Said Bert, "And what have I told you? I'm now nick- named Mini Bert!"
"Ah anyway, I got to register my new weapon," Said Vahn, "Do you want to chill with me for a while after."
"I've got the whole afternoon my friend,"
Vahn added the Maverick Blade to the Tekker List and went down to the commons to meet up with the rest of the group. They had a seat inlet for them selves, and they smiled to see Mini Bert. He mostly kept to himself, and didn't tell people much about himself, so in all logic, he wouldn't be at the mall very often.
Elly jumped up and ran over to Vahn. She squeezed him right around the middle because she barely went up to his chest.
"I was really worried!" She said.
"Bah, you shouldn't be," Said Vahn in seeming sincerity, "I've got those buffoons backing me all the way," he said with a laugh.
"I take offense!" said Issac dramatically.
Every one laughed except a FOmarl slightly shorter than Elly.
"Oh, by the way, this is Keako." Said Elly.
They were all introduced. They laughed and talked for about three hours, when they need to leave for the night. When the boys (including Mini Bert,) went back to Vahn's apartment, they had a blue haired visitor, who looked like Vahn and Mini Bert, was waiting for them.
"Heh heh heh, hello Dad," said Issac shakily.
"Hello Victor," Said Mini Bert, Bowing.
"You guys are in real deep," Said Victor.
He didn't mean with him, he meant Vahn and the Reaper. . .
