Chapter 17: Attack on Chronos Phoenix
"We'll have to move fast," Guyver 5 said, "The security systems have detected us."
"She's right," Blue added, "There are 30 zoanoids on their way up to the roof."
"Split up!" Gigantic Dark shouted
The six of them activated their gravity orbs, broke into the two groups as before and flew to different sides of the building.
[The processing tanks are in the basement.] Blue sent to them all as she flew into the building on the same floor as her former lab.
[We'll take those, Blue.] Guyver 1 sent to her.
[OK, we'll destroy the Research Labs.] She replied, leading Red and Psychic down a corridor.
Four Gregole zoanoids blocked the end of the corridor. Red smiled under her armour and said,
"I'll take these."
Four laser blasts came from the orb above her Control medal and punched through the necks of each of the zoanoids. All four collapsed on the floor, and began to dissolve.
"Good shooting, sis." Psychic said to her.
[Watch what you say!] Blue cautioned him [You don't want to give Chronos a clue about your identity. If they know that you have a sister, they would figure her identity out not long after they found out yours. If they found out who you are that is.]
[Sorry.] Psychic replied [I'll be careful.]
"It looks like they haven't repaired much of the damage you caused, Blue." Red reported.
"Good," Blue replied, "It'll make it easier to finish the job."
"What are our targets?" Red asked.
"Red, you go for the labs computer core, Psychic, cover for her."
"What about you?"
"I'm going to destroy any equipment I can."
Blue moved through the labs, destroying computer terminals, furniture and any other equipment she found. She was surprised that no zoanoids appeared to challenge her, or her friends.
[Blue, something's not right!] Guyver 1s telepathic voice said into her mind, [We've only seen about two dozen zoanoids so far. There should be more than this!]
[I've noticed that myself, Guyver 1. I don't know why.]
[Could Chronos have expected us to finish what you began and cleared the building of all important material?] Guyver 3 asked her.
[I don't think so. Besides, with a Zoalord here, I think we would be outclassed.]
[Possibly, Gyou was hard to cripple. The only reason he's dead now is because he angered Archanfel who then killed him.]
I wonder if I'd be able to destroy Kushtar? Blue thought, as she destroyed a backup computer core.
[Blue, the core has been destroyed,] Red said into her mind, [What now?]
[Help the others in the basement.] She replied.
[What about you?] Psychic asked.
[I'm gonna move to the Executive Area of the building.]
Blue then teleported herself to the part of the building where the Director of the Phoenix Branch worked. She was not the only person in the area, however, as she sensed almost 100 zoanoids nearby. Within minutes, she was fighting those zoanoids, and winning. She sliced two apart using her sonic swords, blasted another one using the mini gravity orbs that were in her palms, crushing the skulls of any who got close enough and blasting ones who were not within reach of her swords using the head laser.
This is too easy, she thought, why?
She suddenly got her answer, when a pair of Enzyme II hyper zoanoids appeared.
This will be more challenging.
She sheathed her sonic swords, knowing that they would be of little help against the corrosive blood of these zoanoids. She quickly teleported herself behind them and fired a pressure cannon at one of them, this time using the orb at her waist for a more powerful blast. The zoanoid lost its left arm in the blast. Blue then found herself jumping and running to avoid the acid spraying from the creatures' mouths. She was able to avoid it at first, but one of the zoanoids fired a spray ahead of her, which she was unable to avoid. The spray hit her legs and for a few seconds she could feel her armour melting. Then, to her surprise, the armour stopped melting.
What just happened? She wondered.
She turned to look at the Enzymes, venting steam from her mouth vents as she did so. She extended the sonic sword in her right wrist and jumped above them. As she landed, behind them, she used the sword to cut the head off of the one who had hit her with the acid. The creature lost its head, as expected, but the sword didn't decay and break, which surprised her. She decided to quickly end this fight and opened one of her mega-smashers; the second Enzyme II didn't get a chance to react as it was vaporised, along with the dissolving remains of the other one.
Looks like my armour can modify itself. Sonnet thought, smiling beneath her armour. This will be a great advantage against Chronos.
[Blue, get out of the building, NOW.]
[What's going on Red?]
[The others are going to vaporise the zoanoid production tanks. The buildings foundations should be damaged along with it.]
[OK,] Blue replied, running towards the nearest zoanoid at the same time. She used the still active sonic sword to slice it in half, as she ran past, and then dived out of the window that was behind it. As the shards of glass fell towards the ground, Guyver Blue activated her main gravity orb and positioned herself above the Phoenix Building, noticing it shake as she looked down at it.
[Are any of you still in the building?] She telepathically asked.
[No, everyone's out.] Psychic Guyver replied.
Good! Blue thought as she opened her mega-smashers and targeted the building. As her cannons began to charge, she sensed four similar energy build-ups.
The others must have had the same idea. She thought as she fired the mega-smashers down at the roof of the Phoenix Building. The combined blasts punched through the roof of the Phoenix Building and vaporised it completely, leaving nothing but a smoking hole in the ground.
The Police and Fire Departments will arrive soon; we need to get out of here. Blue checked her sensors to see if anyone was still alive within the remains of the building. She couldn't detect any living thing in the ruins.
[Can anyone else tell if anything is still alive in the ruins?] Blue telepathically asked. As she received five negative replies, Blue signalled for them all to split up. Blue found Guyver Red and the Psychic Guyver, and Guyver 5 sent her a message saying that she had taken the others home. As Blue teleported her friends to their apartment, she thought: Chronos will hate us more than ever now.
