LEGACY OF KMAS CHAPTER 21
ALL IS EXPLAINED
"There will be no more of this foolishness, or I will have both of your heads". Kazuya said as he removed his shades.
"I'm sorry Kazuya" I said
"We were just…" Saiyan started
"ENOUGH! This is a serious matter that requires your every focus. So PAY ATTENTION! ALL OF YOU!"
I went to sit but again Saiyan tried to push me out of the way. We were now in a push and shove contest and stopped just before Kazuya turned around to see Saiyans arm in my face and my arm trying to push her. Saiyan took advantage of this to push me out of the chair and sit. I answered by pulling the other chair to the spot, which I shoulda done from the start, God how I hate my stubbornness! But we shared the space at the other hand.
"Are you finished?" Kazuya angrily said.
"Yes" we said in unison
"Make a vital note" He said as he started towards us.
"I am about to send you, into battle against Heihachi's soldiers of death. You are lucky I came to you with such a request. But it will be really hard to focus and give it your all, when you two, especially you Saiyan Rage are FIGHTING OVER A CHAIR!"
"It won't happen again, we were just messing around" I said giving the cover
"Your right it won't happen again"
Kazuya's mood was understandable. We were in the thralls of battle and we were acting like babies. But there was no time for regret as it was time for Kazuya to explain everything!
EVENT: LONG AWAITED BREIFING TRACK: MAKO REACTOR (FFVII)
"I've called you here for one reason and one reason only. Heihachi Mishima! Despite all claims he is still alive. He has rebuilt the Zaibatsu Empire within these lands and has rejuvenated his militia, the Tekken-Shu. I will brief you on both within this meeting. As you already know, my father's primary goal is seeking the Devil Gene. But now more then ever he needs it! He is earching the world for me and my son Jin and is plotting something of monumental chaos. His first step was creating a new type of soldier for his armies. I believe some of you have already seen his Super Soldiers?"
This, I suppose was the name for those creatures.
"Yes" said Ifirtstar. "My group encountered quite a number of them. But thankfully we survived".
"How many did you encounter?" Kazuya asked.
"Roughly seventy-five in total" said KD
"Seventy-five? How did you survive?"
"Ask him" Kuni said pointing to me.
"You?" he said upon seeing me.
"Yes, I killed everyone of them with a help from my partners"
"The kid's got some sort a freaky weapon that steals their souls or some shit like that!" Cid mentioned.
"Yes, plus his added addition of the Devil gene makes it all the easier. Isn't that right, demon?" said the Cyborg Ninja.
I was rather pissed off that everyone in the room now knew of this. They stared at me, some in awe others in shock and others in sheer terror.
"It would seem you have a decisive advantage over these soldiers" Kazuya started again.
"Yes, but he could also endanger the mission by providing Heihachi with the Devil Gene. He must not be allowed to take part!" Unknown intervened.
"You're a demon? Holy Shit!" Ron screamed.
Cid slapped him upside the head to calm him down.
"R.T. did you see it when you were looking for them?" Ken asked
She gave only a nod. And with that Ken and Stu were disgusted and frightened. Even Jo and hr bodyguard were astonished and turned the looks away from me. I think it was rather clear what they were trying to say and the following statement made it all the more obvious…
"I think you just better leave DevilKaz" Saiyan Rage said trying to finally be rid of me. Who could blame her?
Well it appeared I was unwelcome amongst this group. At least I could rest easy now. And not have to worry about gaining respect. I can't believe I traveled all this way for this bullshit! I mean there were plenty of other people to stare at, I mean the ninja was a fucking cyborg, Unknown was a vampire and everyone else had a weird thing about them. I mean so what I'm a demon who steals souls. I just really hate being the center of unwanted attention. I stood up and prepared to leave without a word. They just weren't worth it anymore.
"DevilKaz" a small voice called out.
"Where are you going?" It was Xiao the youngest member of the group.
"Everyone's got something up there ass, so I figured I'll just go home"
"Good! We can use less space. I ain't gonna fuck up this mission looking out for your ass!" Vincent Wolf broke the silence.
"Well then I guess you'd lose me too!. I have exactly what Heihachi needs as well" Mo stood up as he said this. What a pal… "Would you like to sacrifice or preferably test me as well?"
"Listen I battled against those Tekken freaks and I ain't never seen people fight like them! You'd get rid of them just like that? That make you nothing but a buncha bums! They ain't goin anywhere as long as I'm here!" proclaimed Cid.
"Listen I've seen and destroyed my share of demons but these two are different. They are of great use to us. I ask you please don't just discard them" Dave began.
"Kazuya, What should we do here?" Saiyan Rage questioned.
"If these two are in fact actually demons then I must say…that if they come they must proceed with the utmost caution. You two are free to abort at anytime. Just be careful out there when the time comes!"
"Well Mo, what d'ya think shall we go or stay?" I said
"Well it's more fun to torture the members in person, so let's stay" Mo said
"Well, I reluctantly agree" I assured.
Now that that unpleasantness had passed, and after Kazuya acknowledged our commitment with a nod of approval we returned to the task at hand.
"As we were, the super soldiers are a new breed of warrior. Upon a fatal wound their bodies will rejuvenate with renewed strength and savagery. But the more increasing terror is their power of invulnerability "But then how can we stop these things?" Grrrpoop started.
"Yeah we're not as gifted as DevilKaz is!" Saiyan Rage said sarcastically.
"Shut up!" I said
"Don't worry Saiyan, He isn't worth it. Save it for Heihachi" Jo spoke.
"I have provided an armory through that door over there at the end of this meeting we will depart to the Zaibatsu shortly. I recommend all of you to take whatever weapon suits you. Those who already have weapons, it couldn't hurt to take another".
"But where is the Zaibatsu?" Vicci asked
"Ah, Good question" Kazuya said as he reached for a remote. He pressed a button and a large section of the front wall moved to reveal a monitor. By pressing a large a button he revealed a large map upon the monitor of our current lands. He continued…
"South of the FireWood Forest and SouthWest of the Dark City Citadel is he Zaibatsu compound. Here is a photo of the compound"
A large gray building appeared with a black penthouse structure. Funny, it seemed rather small then I thought it would be. But then again Heihachi couldn't make big purchases if he wanted to regain his business financially. But the area which surrounded the compound was rather familiar and I didn't really know why. Kazuya continued.
"This structure is 15 levels high and there are entrances in the front and back". Now pay close attention for this is your primary opposition. Heihachi has created a squadron of seven of his most powerful soldiers and given them the leadership of the Tekken-Force. They possess the mastery of one element each and one is their leader. They are known only as The Big Seven!"
He changed the screen and showed a picture of seven shadowy beings. He zoomed in on the first figure. It was a female clad in shades of blue and light blue. She had similar azure color eyes, lipstick and hair, which was long and wavy as that of the waves of an ocean. She wore a light blue skirt and fighting gloves.
"This is the first member of the Big Seven, Sergeant Aquarios. Master of the element of water and Tekken Force's most brilliant strategist"
Kazuya zoomed in on the next being. The next picture was of a large brutish man, clad in shades of brown and earth colors. He had brown hair in a buzz cut and his skin was oddly grayish as that of a boulder or rock. He had Army boots and gloves made of solid rock.
"The second member is Chief Master Sergeant Quake. Earth Master and the brute strength of the Seven"
Member number three was that of a rather skinny man in shades of gray. He was average in height and his hair was gray and wavy as the howling winds. He wore a sleeveless shirt, with shiny gray boots and gloves.
"Next is Lieutenant Hurricos, the master of wind and the speediest member of the group"
Freak four was an average looking man, clothed in a white vest and pants, his hair was back in straight spikes and his eyes were transparent as glass. Upon his hands he wore gloves with sharp icicles and his shoes were clawed in ice as well.
"Captain Frost, the most cunning and vicious member and master of the element of ice"
The fifth warrior wore colors of gold and yellow. It was obvious that this man was in charge of the soldiers who attacked us. The soldiers wore gold patches upon their uniforms, so it was a small game of match the colors. He was rather large in size and his hair was electrifying yellow and white. He wore a jacket and sleeveless t shirt. His pants were baggy and his boots were shiny and ebony.
"The fifth member is Major Electashock, Lightning master and weapons expert.
I glanced slightly at Jo, who I mentioned earlier had this same power. She had a half smile on her face, as if she was hoping to challenge him
Number six was just as large but taller then the Major. He wore shades of red and orange. His hair was styled similar to Mo's but was a fiery red. He was clothed in a insulated suit and his eyes blazed in an orangey color.
"The last elemental master, Colonel Blaze. Master of Fire and the elemental squad leader"
As before I glanced at our own master of flame, Mo. But his look was slightly different. I knew that look from anywhere. He had a deep gaze as if he had known who this person was. It was a gaze of hatred and anger. But as I pondered the reasons why, Kazuya continued…
I saw the image of he final member and my eyes widened with surprise. And anger and anticipation filled my soul. Here was a man, with short and slick raven hair. He wore a traditional militia uniform. Similar to Heihachi's white suit, but black in color. His over coat, which was over his shoulder, was just like that of his masters, but of a darker burgundy color. I knew who this man was. He was one who now occupied the largest blackest hate filled part of my heart. And I'd wager the Soul Reaver and six bucks that he felt the same way! This was all confirmed when Kazuya spoke…
"And finally, the seventh member, leader of the Big Seven and Commander of the Tekken Force, General Beng"
That clenched it. It was Beng. I could not believe after all these years that vile bastard was still Heihachi's lackey. Well, he's come quite a long way after all. The leader of the Tekken Force. There was really no where left to go but Heihachi himself. But regardless, I now had another reason to participate in this little crusade. I had to face my rival one last time!
"This is your opposition. You will be able to tell whose soldier squadron is whose by the trims of their uniforms. Aquarios is symbolized by blue, Quake soldiers are represented by brown, Hurricos is decaled by a light gray, Frost emitted by white, Electashock is denoted by gold, Blaze is signified by red, and Beng's soldiers are marked with black. Be on your guard at all times! These soldiers always hunt in packs and there will surely be more of them. And if you encounter the Super Soldiers, use extreme caution and try to avoid conflict if they are in large groups. That is all you need to know. This meeting is adjourned. I suggest you all head to the armory and take whatever you need. And no hoarding please!
(End Event)
The room stood and proceeded as Kazuya instructed. I knew not many would have used them but some of them figured why not? I know that was my opinion anyway! But I was rather curious to see what weapons Kazuya had in store to use against the super soldiers. I entered the room and was taken by complete surprise. There were just regular swords and normal looking, yet some high caliber, guns and explosives in here. I sincerely doubted if our fatal attacks had proven useless then these swords and guns would.
"Kazuya, how can we beat them with these?" I asked
"The weapons are smuggled from the Zaibatsu itself. They are regular weapons yes. But the blade is lined with a special alloy that prevents the demonic resurrection. The ammo is packed with it too" Kazuya said with a smile.
I looked at one of the regular hand guns there and examined a bullet. The bullet was shining silver but other then that I really didn't sense anything of any importance. I slipped it into my pocket. Who knows maybe I could use it for my necromancy at one time. The weapons in there really had no use to me. I just sat back to see what everyone else would do.
EVENT: PREPARATION
TRACK: MOONLIGHT NOCTURNE (Castlevania: SOTN)
Vicci went first and claimed an UZI., rather good choice for mortal weaponry, and a mini-flamethrower. Pretty good choices to go with her stiletto. I saw Dave grab one weapon, another fine choice, a shotgun. KD-Mitsu grabbed the most weapons. She took a rocket launcher, she carried it with ease, a few molotovs and a katana. Grrrpoop grabbed two HK MP7's. Kuni took two sais. Honestly I was tempted to take one of everyone of those weapons. But I just took a few grenades…fifteen of them. My trench pockets went pretty deep. OK I took a shotgun too. Who wouldn't have, give me a break! The rest grabbed a side arm, except Mo, Unknown, the ninja, Xiao and Saiyan Rage. After securing our weapons we went out to join Kazuya.
We each headed up to the 1st floor and went outside the warehouse. We decided our means of travel. Ken would take the group he came with, Stu, R.T., Ifritstar, Vicci, KD and Ron. Dave had Nickel and Saiyan, Jo an Grrrpoop would be taken by Kazuya in his car. Kuni had already leapt into the night. Unknown had transformed into her bat form and was on her way now. The ninja had disappeared and ran off into the distance. Mo would obviously run. Sothat left Vincent, Xiao Cid and myself. I could never fly that far with such limited time.
"Go to the right of the warehouse" I heard Kazuya yell as he sped off.
We did and found two black choppers waiting their for us. Very sleek in design and a side car. We agreed that Cid would travel with Vicent and I would travel with…Xiao.
"Wow that's a nice bike!" Xiao said
"It's not a bike it's a chopper" I said.
We sped down the road and prepared to assault the Zaibatsu.
