Android Kikaider 02: The Fanfiction
Disclaimer: ...Yeah. You know the routine by now. I don't own Kikaider or Kikaider 01, but the people that aren't from either one are mine.
"I still can't believe what the paper is having me do now!" Gunta said angrily.
It was lunch time again, and it was Gunta, Suzume, and Niro sitting at the usual table. While Gunta and Suzume were in their conversation, Niro just stared blankly at the table. Suzume saw this and asked, "Hey Niro, you okay?"
"Huh? What?" the disguised android asked.
Suzume said with concern, "Niro, you've been out of it for the past couple of days. Are you okay?"
Niro looked at Suzume and asked, "Have you ever thought that you wanted something badly, but when you got it, it wasn't like how you expected it, and you didn't want it anymore?"
Suzume wasn't sure how to answer. Somehow she could tell that if she said yes it still wouldn't be on the same level as in Niro's situation. Gunta, however, blurted out, "I bet I know what's wrong. Niro's getting all the girls, and now he doesn't want him anymore!"
Suzume then bashed Gunta over the head and replied, "You jerk!! Niro isn't some sort of womanizer!!"
Gunta covered the lump on his head, then looked at Suzume, and did what might be the stupidest thing he could ever do. "Jealous?"
Suzume blushed just a little bit before landing an even harder blow on Gunta in the exact same spot. Although nothing else was said afterwards, Niro gave a small laugh. But soon afterwards, he returned to his zoned out state of mind as his thoughts drifted back to his estranged father.
---Ghost of the Past---
Gold Wolf was sitting outside looking at the surrounding area and smiling to himself. Masaru saw him and asked, "Mind if I join you?"
"Not at all," he replied.
Masaru sat beside him and looked at the yard with him. "Mitsuko's quite the gardener, isn't she?"
"Indeed. Speaking of which, where is your sister now?"
"As far as I know, she's spending some time alone with Jiro."
Gold Wolf laughed and said, "Say no more. I'm sure they have a lot of catching up to do."
Masaru smiled and said, "Yeah. You're probably right. He and Niro have some catching up to do as well."
Gold Wolf sighed and said, "Yes, but I feel it might be considerably harder for them."
Masaru looked at him questioningly and asked, "How so?"
Gold Wolf then replied, "I don't remember much of the battle, but I remember how the two of them were fighting amongst themselves. Jiro thought it best for Niro to get you and Mitsuko out because he felt that if he fought him he would hold back too much. However, Niro refused, said that Jiro should get the two of you out, and that he didn't need him telling him what to do."
"Oh yeah. And then there's when Niro kicked him to stop him from killing you."
"Different views can cause different actions. But I feel that the bitter resentment that Niro feels for his father goes farther than just different battle viewpoints."
"But...Jiro's alive and back. Why can't he accept that?" Masaru asked almost a bit worried.
"It may be because Niro could have been the only one to really believe that his father was dead," Gold Wolf replied.
Masaru sighed after that comment. He didn't want to believe it, but what Gold Wolf said could be very true. While he and Mitsuko lived in the belief that he would come back one day Niro lived in what seemed could never be.
"Blast it! Gold Wolf had a Gemini inside of him this whole time!" Kuro yelled in anger.
"It was probably put in the design by Komyoji on purpose should Professor Gill actually make him," stated Multi-Colored Sand Lizard.
"I can't believe I fell for such a trick. It matters not anyway. Our ultimate weapon is nearly complete," Kuro replied with a snicker.
"Lord Kuro, I know I failed you during Gold Wolf's attack. Please, let me destroy the Kikaiders myself. This way, we can buy time for our ultimate weapon to be completed."
"I see. Very well, Sand Lizard. I'm putting you in charge of eliminating Kikaider, Kikaider 02, and that traitor."
"Yes, my lord," was Multi-Colored Sand Lizard's reply as he retreated into the shadows.
Kuro looked up at a containment capsule that seemed to house what looked like a battle android. "Your completion has almost arrived, my dear Sano. Once you are finished, not even Kikaider 02 will be able to stop you!"
Some of the lights shining at the capsule displayed what appeared to be a permanent mouth facial feature. Kuro gazed at the battle android and gave an evil laugh.
Time passed, and Niro drove home from school on his Rocket Machine. He pulled up to the house, turned off his motorcycle, dismounted it, and went inside the house. "Mom, I'm home."
He turned around and saw that Mitsuko was sleeping on the couch. Jiro came in and said, "She's been taking a nap for a couple of hours now."
"Oh," was the teenage android's only reply.
There was an awkward silence between the two until Jiro broke it and asked, "So...how was your day?"
Niro replied, "I guess it was okay. It was just same-old same-old."
Then Niro thought to himself, "Not that you would know."
"Oh. I see," was all Jiro could say.
Just as Niro was going to walk off to his room, Jiro said, "Listen, if you want to maybe go and do something sometime---"
"I've got homework to do," Niro interrupted gruffly before going into his room and closing the door.
Jiro sighed in despair. "This is not going to be easy," he thought to himself.
Niro sat on his bed and looked in his mirror. Now he saw exactly what everyone meant. But he never thought just how much he looked like his father. As much as everyone was right he now hated the fact. He hated the truth. He hated his father. "I'm nothing like him," he said to himself.
"I don't want to be anything like him."
Suddenly, he felt the urge to play his guitar. He plugged the amplifier cord into the 0 on his belt and began to play the sad song he had always known. Little did he know that Jiro was just on the other side of his door, listening to the song and realizing it was the same song he used to play.
Suzume looked out of her window and into the sky. She didn't know why, but for some reason her thoughts drifted to her best friend.
"We're friends, right?" she remembered asking him.
Niro seemed kind of confused at this question and replied, "Of course we are."
She replied, "And since we're friends, we can tell each other anything, right? No secrets?"
Suzume then finally said softly to herself, "Oh Niro. Why can't you tell me what it is that you're hiding? Are you...afraid of me?"
She slowly placed a clutched hand over her heart and said to herself, "We're friends, right?"
There wasn't any kind of light in the surrounding area, but all Mitsuko could do was run. She had no idea what she was running from, but it filled her with a horrible sense of terror. Suddenly, lightning flashed in the sky, but all it revealed was a barren and darkened wasteland surrounding her. Mitsuko then looked up into the sky and saw the memory of Kikaider 02 and 03. Lightning flashed in this memory and revealed a metallic lizard carrying the skeleton of 03 and making his way to 02. Just as he was trying to break the capsule glass, Mitsuko turned on the electric field and blew off his arm. The monster screamed and ran off with 03.
As the memory faded away, Mitsuko began to look around. She could hear a terrible laugh all around there. "Who's there?" she asked completely frightened.
Another bolt of lightning came crashing through the sky and revealed the metallic lizard right in front of her. The lizard readied his fist for a heavy punch, but Kikaider 02 came blasting in and decked him hard across the face. The lizard lay motionless on the ground as 02 turned back to Niro and faced Mitsuko. "Are you okay, Mom?" he asked.
However, in the shadows, Mitsuko could see a figure with a gun. The only detail she could make out was the glowing orange eyes as he raised his gun and aimed at Niro. When Niro finally saw the figure, it fired and sent a massive energy blast that took off his left arm and most of his chest. As Niro slowly fell to the ground, he struggled to utter his last word. "Brother..."
Mitsuko quickly woke up in a cold sweat. "It was all just a dream," she said to herself.
She looked around to see if anyone else was around. When she saw that no one else was around, she quietly whispered to herself, "03, what's happened to you?"
Then she remembered Jiro saying, "The most powerful one is one called Multi-Colored Sand Lizard, but I've also been hearing rumors of some sort of ultimate weapon that's supposed to be a battle android far more powerful than him, but he's currently in development."
She didn't want to believe it, but she knew she couldn't shake off the possibility. Now she realized that there could be a great chance that her second son was still alive. And she also realized that if it were so then Niro would be in for the fight of his young life.
The day became night once more, and Niro was playing his guitar under the starry night sky. Jiro watched him for a minute. He knew that song he was playing very well. That was the same song he would play as an expression of loneliness. He approached Niro and said, "You know, you're really good."
Niro looked up towards his father then looked away and replied, "Thanks. I guess."
Jiro sighed and then said, "Niro, we need to talk."
Niro immediately stopped playing and asked, "About what?"
Jiro then said, "About your fighting technique."
Niro gave a heavy sigh and asked, "Do we have to go over this again?"
Jiro then said, "You can't keep fighting like you have been. Night isn't as merciful as you are. You can't just hold back and stop yourself from killing them."
"And why not? I've been doing very well for myself thus far."
"And what about Green Waterbug? You were nearly killed in that fight. If I hadn't stepped in then you would have died."
"That doesn't mean that I should stoop to their levels. I refuse to kill!"
"Then you refuse being human!"
This took Niro back. Jiro then continued with, "Humans are not perfect. They never have been, and they never will be. Your Gemini is what tries to make you human, but it's also what's keeping you from being human."
"I will not give up my morals. Not for Night, not my family, and most certainly not for you!" he responded with anger.
"How can you stand being a machine that thinks and feels like a human? Haven't you ever looked in the mirror night after night and wondered what you really are? Haven't you felt the loneliness from wondering how much of a human you are? Or how much of a machine you are? Is your Gemini working?"
"My Gemini works just fine. Unlike yours."
This cut Jiro deep. Using his incomplete Gemini for an insult seemed like a really low blow. However, Niro offered no apologies for what he said as he walked off. He didn't get very far when a missile came his way.
Niro managed to dodge the missile and the explosion. He looked around to see who fired it. "Who's there?" he shouted.
Then the dreaded Multi-Colored Sand Lizard jumped out from the shadows. "So we meet once more, Kikaider 02."
Niro seemed a bit confused until the giant lizard spoke, "I guess you don't remember me. Too bad."
Niro just said, "If it's a fight you want, then just say the words."
Niro then placed his hands on his shoulders and said, "Here are mine! CHANGE! 02!!"
Soon, Niro's human features flaked off once more as he transformed into the battle android Kikaider 02. After this, Jiro followed suit by placing his hands on his shoulders and giving the command, "SWITCH ON!!"
Jiro's human features disappeared as he transformed into Kikaider. After the transformation was complete, the two battle androids got into a fighting stance until Gold Wolf came out from the house and said, "I hope you don't mind if I show you my gratitude for what you've done for me."
Gold Wolf's eyes began to glow as he turned his head upward. He gave an animalistic howl as he transformed into his monstrous canine form. "Ah, so the traitor has come to do battle as well," said Multi-Colored Sand Lizard. "It's just as well."
The mechanical lizard fired a volley of missiles at the three androids. All three of them dodged the explosions, but the explosions still created a blanket of dirt that made it hard to see through. Then from the clouds of dust came a large tongue that grabbed Gold Wolf and threw him into 02. 02 fell to the ground with Gold Wolf on top of him, but as soon as the canine machine got up, he said, "Okay. Now I'm mad!"
Gold Wolf collected a massive amount of energy in his hands then pointed them at Multi-Colored Sand Lizard, shouting, "WOLF BEAM!!!"
Gold Wolf fired the energy in the form of a beam and hit his target. The giant lizard's missile launchers blew up and caused the monster to scream in pain. Kikaider then brought his arms into an X formation. Energy began to surround them as he leaped high into the air, did a front flip, and screamed, "ELECTRO END!!!"
Once Kikaider was close enough, Multi-Colored Sand Lizard swung his massive tail at the asymmetric android and hit him hard enough to send him flying back thirty feet. 02 took this time that he was off guard to blast his way straight at him and give him a hard uppercut in the mouth. The lizard android howled in pain as he felt his extending tongue beginning to malfunction. "I can't keep fighting like this!" he thought to himself.
Multi-Colored Sand Lizard then looked inside the house and saw Mitsuko watching the fight. He turned his attention back to Gold Wolf, 02, and a returning Kikaider. He extended the fin surrounding his neck, and it began to glow a different array of colors. Then the monstrous android shouted, "SAND LIZARD STORM!!!"
The fin then let out a powerful gust of wind that seemed to have the concentrated power of a hurricane. The three Gemini androids couldn't escape this blast and were blown back a long distance. 02 landed closest to the house, but he was too late to stop the evil android from breaking into the house and capture Mitsuko. "No!! Mom!!"
Multi-Colored Sand Lizard looked at Kikaider 02 and said, "If you want her back then meet me at the old railroad station downtown tomorrow after noon. I will fight you there alone."
With that, the monstrous lizard ran off. As 02 reverted back to Niro he screamed, "MOM!!!!"
A/N: Hey. Sorry for the slow update once again, but I haven't seen very many reviews come in for the chapter 6. I need some motivation! I need reviews! I need to know people actually still read this story! Please review!
Disclaimer: ...Yeah. You know the routine by now. I don't own Kikaider or Kikaider 01, but the people that aren't from either one are mine.
