"How was that?" Trinku grinned, watching the opening of his movie play in the darkened theatre. "I'm sure you all liked the way I introduced the movie, don-"
"Shut up down there!" Came the shout from Ken Masters as popcorn rained on him. "We're trying to watch the movie!"
"Oww, hey, watch it!" Shouted Shion. "You're getting KOS-MOS dirty! That means I'll have to clean her...KEEP THROWING!"
"Keep your fantasies to yourself, Shion!" Came the aged shout from Heihachi Mishima. "I paid good money to rent out this theatre and I'll be damned if we don't watch this movie!"
"Thank you, Heihachi." Trinku smiled.
"I said QUIET, DAMN IT!"
Prologue (1):
Alice in Wonderland
There has always been a talk, theories, of alternate dimensions.
Ever since man reached the stars, the thought of life off this planet has been a heated discussion. Soon, however, man began to think there was not life beyond this planet, the planet Earth. Instead, they began to believe there might be alternate earths.
Multiple versions of this very planet we have lived on. It was until ten years ago when people capitalized on this theory. 10 years ago in Japan. Tokyo, Shibuya. There was a fight between organizations.
One of the organizations called "Yuragi" stumbled space distortion, trying to open a gate that connects to a strange world. On the other hand, the plan was intercepted by the other organization. One of the organizations opened this gate and soon, creatures from beyond this world were appearing in our world. Yuragi promptly disappeared...and another organization called "Shinra" took its place.
Here follows the tale of two from such an organization...
"I'm mad at the fact he made us sound like a mob..." Arisu Reiji munched his popcorn.
"We'll have to shoot the director after this..." said Xiamou, who also munched on Reiji's popcorn.
Future.
Inside the Cargo Passenger Ship "Elsa"
On this ship, Elsa, was a small crew of passengers. Numerous men and women, who traveled through space, all armed and ready for combat. At the current time, there were little disturbances that the crew was used too, such as attacks from creatures known as Gnosis. But something had bothered all of them. One of their passengers, a blue haired female android known as KOS-MOS, was displaying unusual symptoms of something.
"Hmm..." a young woman, Shion Uzuki, stood over the blue-haired android, circling her twice. While this android was, in appearance, a few years older than her, the machine only watched with the curiosity of a cat as she stared. The girl tapped KOS-MOS on the knee, as well as on the forehead, awaiting some sort of response. Then, she sighed.
"KOS-MOS, status report?" Shion asked, seeing nothing wrong with this android's frame. She hoped KOS-MOS would be able to tell her. The android's eyes flashed once, then...
"Shion, no abnormality to the frame detected." KOS-MOS replied. The girl sighed. Tapping her forehead again, she pressed her ear to KOS-MOS' head, listening for something. KOS-MOS never changed her expression as the girl narrowed her eyes. Then-
"It seems...that recently there has been an increase in noise frequency in the temporal lobe." She stated, adjusting her glasses. However, KOS-MOS quickly opened her mouth to speak.
"No influence of self-autonomous behavior detected," she replied. Then, after a quick pause. "No errors detected."
"No errors detected...?" Shion asked. That wouldn't explain the androids behavior, though; recently she has been having mood swings, eating ice cream (something she shouldn't be doing), and crying uncontrollably (also something she shouldn't be doing, though Shion didn't complain). "Hmm...What could it be, then..."
"Chief!" A male voice behind her said. Turning around, a fellow crews mate named Allen greeted her. "I think it maybe that your doll, I mean, KOS-MOS is making too much power to keep in that body of hers. That, or android PMS."
"I'll pretend I didn't hear that."
"Right. Why don't we just transfer her to another body?"
"I can't do that now," Shion replied. "It would involve shutting her down for an extended period of time. And what if the Gnosis attack, huh? Then what?" She shouted at Allen, who quickly backed away from the glasses wearing girl. However, as he did, another 'person' entered the room. A small android in the form of a girl known as MOMO.
MOMO approached KOS-MOS, looking her over the same way Shion did. Both Shion and Allen watched as she peeked around KOS-MOS... Then clapped her hands together. "I propose a mind dive!" She grinned.
"...A mind dive...why didn't I think of that?" Shion smiled.
"Because you were about to attack me," Moaned Allen. "But, uh...what if it isn't her power? What if it's a virus or something?"
"Don't be silly. KOS-MOS can't catch a virus! I outfitted her with Norton Antivirus version 3478.05, not to mention a special super duper firewall!" Shion smiled.
"But it COULD be a smart virus. And it might be waiting for a mind dive so it can take over MOMO. And then she might be acting the way KOS-MOS is acting, or worse!"
"Allen, be reasonable. Even if there was a virus and even if it did infect KOS-MOS, it would be harmless in this child," She smiled, patting MOMO on the head. "Besides. It couldn't affect us and if it did, I bet I could fix up MOMO-Chan."
However, MOMO was talking to KOS-MOS. "Um...KOS-MOS...is you're condition bad? You don't have a virus, right?"
"Of course she doesn't! For the last time, KOS-MOS can not catch a virus!" Shion shouted. With a nod, MOMO placed a hand to KOS-MOS. At once there was a faint flash, and the small android child's eyes seemed to scroll with green zeros and ones.
"Uh...chief..." Allen looked around. "Don't we have something to do? I mean..."
"Diving," Shion said, ignoring him. Allen only sighed and watched.
"Diving... Encephalon Drive? Directly approaching KOS-MOS' consciousness." MOMO announced.
"Keep going, MOMO-Chan." Shion smiled. "When it comes to probing minds, you're the best."
"So, uh...chief. Chief, we don't have to be doing anything here anymore, right?"
"Opening interconnection." Clearly, KOS-MOS was on Shion's agenda, not what ever Allen was talking about. "Allen, could you please back up a bit?" Allen sighed.
"Yeah, I understand. You wanna keep playing with your doll..."
"Hm?"
"I mean...if it means helping KOS-MOS!"
"Whatever you say," Shion said. Still watching as MOMO probed, she sighed. Nothing could be found, just like KOS-MOS said. "MOMO, please stop. KOS-MOS, I think that's enough for now. Lets meet again inside the Encephalon, okay?"
"Comprehended," Replied the azure haired android. With a slight delay, she then said, "...Good night, Shion."
"Well done," Shion smiled, seeing what appeared to be an attempt at KOS-MOS being kind. Or showing any emotion, for that matter. "Good night, KOS-MOS." She replied with a slight pat on the android's head, much like a mother would her child.
Allen only sighed. "I wonder if she was like this with her dolls as a kid..."
Western calendar; Year: 20XX
Shibuya, Japan.
Three women walked down the streets of Shibuya, the empty street of Shibuya. It looked as if the place had been recently closed down, as if to keep the public out. However, these three women didn't seem to care. Heck, they didn't even seem to want to dress for the weather; though it was cold, all three wore what looked like mock-turtleneck thong outfits and berets.
It almost seemed like a bad joke waiting to happen. A blonde, a brunette, and a black haired girl walk down the streets, wearing almost nothing. That was until a single voice called out to them.
"Wait!"
The three stopped, performing an about face at the same time. Standing behind them was a woman in a blue outfit. On her wrist were two, spiked bracelet, an odd fashion statement. But there was one thing that set her apart from most women, one that any man would recognize; the sheer thickness of her thighs. This could only be one person!
The women all stared, not making a sound. The blonde looked as if she were about to speak, but only a "..." like sound escaped her lips. If there is a sound for that, I mean.
"Don't you understand what I'm saying?" This woman with the thighs, Chun-Li, asked. "This place has been closed off to the public a few days ago! Civilian's are prohibited from entering!"
"..."
Chun-Li sighed. This was getting her nowhere. Heck, they seemed to be mutes, so it wouldn't hurt to come out and say it. "The truth is...I've been following you three. All three of you are members of that organization, aren't you?"
"..."
"You know. That organization. Shadowloo! The international drug traffickers! The destroyers of government property! The killers of more than a dozen law officials! I know who you three are, so don't deny it!" Then, taking a breath. "And I know who you are working for too! M.Bison! So would you be kind enough to tell me about him?"
"..." The blonde didn't speak. However, to Chun-Li's surprise, the brunette and black haired girls did.
"MISSION BEING OBSTRUCTED. PROPOSAL: TERMINATION!"
"PROPOSAL: AGREEMENT."
The blonde then spoke, adding more to Chun-Li's shock. "THERE IS NO TIME FOR YOU TO BE CONCERNED... OUR DUTIES ARE FORGOTTEN. RETARGETING: JAPAN SPECIAL DUTY SYSTEM 'SHINRA'... EXECUTING DUTY. TERMINATION CONTACT."
Chun-Li's eyes were wide with confusion and shock. These girls...they talked like robots! Robots that didn't completely speak clearly at that, at least from what she heard.
"COMPREHENDED."
"COMPREHENDED."
"W-wait!" Chun-Li thought about what was said. These girls...mean to kill her! "Hey! Wait a minute! I was only asking questions!" Then, thinking, "What on Earth did Shadoloo do to these girls?"
At the same time, on the opposite side of town, stood two individuals. One, a male, stood a few feet over the other, a female. The male wore a red jacket, worn over a black vest and a white shirt. Red gloves and boots covered his hands and feet. His left arm, well muscled like his right, was currently occupied, however, by a rack of sorts. A weapon rack, to be precise; two swords and a large shotgun were on this rack, and another gun hung at his waist. Of course, this was hardly what people looked at when they saw him. Instead, it was his hair: almost all black except for a white streak on the side of his head. A streak that just stopped at a nice sized scar.
His partner, on the other hand, wasn't as strapped as this male. She held a large, priestess like staff in her hand, while a sword lay at her waist. Of course, exactly how it was on her waist is a question in itself: she also wore a red jacket, but it covered a large black dress, one that had an enormous zipper down the middle. In other, unoccupied hand was also a gun. And also like her partner, she had an unusual hairstyle: it looked like an unholy breed between a pikachu and a nine-tailed fox.
"Ugh. He made my hair look horrible..." Xiamou said, mouth full of popcorn.
"I guess that question about you looking in the mirror is out..." He said, reaching in the bucket. However, his hand quickly hit the bottom. "...You ate all my popcorn..."
"..." The girl looked around. "Reiji...there's no one in town. Even with all these clothes on sale!" She shouted, pointing to a store across from them with "sale" in bright pink letters. "Not a soul. But hey, there's a bit of elegance to this..."
"...There was nothing elegant at all about what you just said, Xiamou," Reiji sighed. "First of all, none of the stores are in business. They haven't been in business for days now." Looking around at the mist-covered town, he shuddered. "Why would you want to shop in this dead atmosphere anyway?"
"Huh. Strange, I didn't know they were closed," Reiji slapped is forehead as his partner thought to herself. "And now that you mention it, the atmosphere IS pretty weird here."
"Yeah," Reiji fingered his gun on his waist. "The place is filled with weird energy. Maybe it's the work of 'those beast'..." The two stopped speaking at once, however. A hissing sound behind them made them both look at each other.
Xiamou smiled. "Well, they're here! The Katmaitachi," Turning around, her smile faded with disappointment. "Oh. Crap." She then pouted. Then, turning to Reiji, she shouted. "How come we're stuck with the low-grade Katmaitachi! Huh? They're not even worth getting my hands dirty, Reiji! How come we have to clean up the trash!" Taking a deep breath, she began to walk away. "Call me when you're done, m'kay?"
"...What?"
"Now now, Arisu Reiji. You can handle these by yourself, can't you?"
"Say what now?" Reiji raised an eyebrow.
"I haven't even eaten breakfast yet," She smiled. "I have a fried tofu meal out in the back, just waiting for me to eat it. When you get finished come let me know okay?"
Reiji looked around. With a quick head count, he counted three Katmaitachi coming at them. "Damn, they're ganging up on us. Hey, Xiamou!"
"Well, sorry Reiji. That's how it is. Now, if you'll excuse me..." Reiji drew his gun, readying to shoot at her. Then, taking a breath to calm himself, he had an idea.
"...And here I was thinking that once we take care of these guys, I would return a little bit of that secret savings we talked about earlier. If you don't want to help I guess there's nothing I can do. I'll take care of this myself," He said in a nonchalant manner, waving his hand. "But if I do, I'll be keeping it."
Xiamou froze. On one hand, she was hungry. On the other, there was the fact that she could get some of her money back. Why did he even have to take it, she asked herself. So what she spent the grocery money on this outfit? So what she spent supply money on makeup? It was for a good cause!
With a sigh, she spun quickly, smile on her face. At least this way she could get a new dress. "Alrighty then, Reiji! Let's kick some butt then, shall we?"
Reiji sighed. "...You're such a predictable person. Well, the town is strange and we were sent here to work. Let's hurry and clean up this mess and then continue our investigation!" Tossing his weapon rack in the air, he snatched the second gun as Xiamou ran to his side. Back to back, they pointed their three guns out at the now encircling monsters known as Katmaitachi.
"Shall we begin?" Reiji asked.
"Lets." Xiamou replied, as her gun clicked.
The resulting maneuver was a hail of gunfire from both of their guns in the flashiest way imaginable. Reiji twirled his guns as he aimed around them, bullets slamming into the monster's flesh. Piercing, exiting, and moving to another target, Reiji and Xiamou unloaded their guns in ways fitting for the word 'slaughter.'
Then, with the sound of millions of bullet casings hitting the ground, Reiji pointed his smoking guns downward. "Kore de owari da," He said, as the monsters fell, filled with more holes than Swiss cheese. ("With this, it's over.)
Xiamou looked around. Walking over to one of the downed monsters, she nudged it with her toe. Poking it once more, she grinned. "That's how you do it! That's how you get the job done!" She grinned. "So...uh...can I get that 'secret savings' now?" she asked, putting on an innocent face.
"Don't give me that face, acting like you fought them all by yourself." Seeing her face didn't change, he sighed. "All right, let's get back to headquarters. Then I'll-"
"Wait!" Xiamou interrupted. Reiji smiled, folding his arms.
"Oh, how admirable. You don't want it then? Way to go!"
"No...that's not what I meant by wait. If you take that away, so help me god-"
"Right, right," Reiji said. "So what were you talking abou-" Reiji stopped mid-sentence. Out of the corner of his eye, he noticed something move in the fog. Not quite human, but not one of the monsters he and Xiamou just smacked down. For one, it didn't have the 'mask' that the Katmaitachi always wore.
"So you finally noticed, huh," Xiamou said, looking around as well. "You're surprisingly slow, you know. Weren't you the one who said the air was weird earlier?"
"I did."
"Well, it felt different from them, didn't it?" Then, she stopped. One of the creatures advanced towards them. "What the-"
"..." The creature didn't speak. Both Reiji and Xiamou stared as it focused a single red eye on them.
"Tsk. A fresh supply of troops," Reiji said. "But... why are these guys here now? The 'Yuraki,'" He muttered, remembering something from the database. Yuraki; the group that disappeared just before Shinra was formed. From what he gathered, they were the ones sending out the monsters. But these didn't seem like their work. "They're a lot different then what the database at the headquarters reports them as, don't you think?"
Xiamou nodded. "Well then, we have unfamiliar company." She said seriously. That quickly faded, though. "Now now, since you're a pair of fresh faces you have to greet us in only one way." She smiled. "Come on, bow before your mistress Xiamou!" She shouted.
"..." The monster said nothing. If anything, it looked confused.
"Heh, Looks like he doesn't have any manners does he?" Reiji smiled, unfolding his arms. Grabbing his gun, he smirked. "Well in that case my greeting for you is...this!" Pulling the trigger, the bullet flew at the monster at an alarmingly fast speed. It flew and flew...
...And passed straight through it.
"Wh-what?" Reiji blinked.
"The bullet went right through him!" Xiamou asked in shock. "Could that mean...he's a ghost? Hey Reiji, don't be so stingy with those bullets! Keep firing!" She shouted, a bit creeped out.
"I'm not you, I would never do something so petty. It disposed of the bullet by manipulating its spirit-body ratio." Reiji tried to explain. By everything he's seen while working for Shinra, it seemed that was the most logical explanation. "Just what are these things...I get the feeling that they're...not of this world. Could these be...brand-new species born from Yuragi?"
Xiamou looked down. There was something else odd. This monster, unlike the others, wasn't a floating spirit. "Um...it's feet are planted on the ground. Rather firmly, might I add."
"Hmph. We're in deep." Reiji said, backing up slowly. "Xiamou, this is a worse case scenario. Let's fall back for now."
"Bah! How pitiful!" Xiamou spat. "What happened, Reiji? I don't remember raising you to be a wuss over these ten years!"
"Oh shut up," He growled. "I'm not you, I don't rush into combat. Act your age for once."
The girl gave an angry sigh. "Fine. If we're going to pack our stuff and leave, we might as well do it quick."
"Agreed," Said Reiji. A sound filled their ears, however, like the sound of water rushing out of a dam. Looking around, both of them recognized this sound in an instant. "What the? Hey, this can't be...damn it! Another new Yuragi monster?"
He quickly swallowed those words, though. Just behind him, in the mist, were three figures. As the mist cleared a bit, he could see they were all females. A small girl with pink hair; a tall, slim, attractive woman with long blue hair; and an average sized woman with brown hair and glasses. "What the-"
"Ugh," The woman with glasses rubbed her head. Looking around, her eyes grew wide. This wasn't the Elsa! "Wh-where are we?" Then, after a brief second, she clapped her hands together. "Oh! I know where we are!"
"Shion! Are you injured!" Called the blue-haired woman, a seemingly mechanical tone in her voice. Both Reiji and Xiamou looked to each other, agreeing at once: not only were they not from this world, some of those girls were not human.
"I'm okay," The brown haired girl, the one Reiji figured to be Shion, replied. "Besides, we're inside your Encephalon. You see KOS-MOS, for me to be injured would mean my physical body would be hurt. And it can't be hurt in cyber-"
"Um...Shion..." the girl beside her interrupted. "I don't think-"
"Huh? MOMO-Chan? What are you doing inside the Encephalon?"
"...What the heck are they talking about?" Asked Xiamou.
"I have no idea..." Reiji replied. "I think they're civilians. Granted, not so sane civilians... Any idea what an Encephalon is?"
"Not a clue." Xiamou answered. Then, taking a hard look at them, she then continued. "A girl with glasses...an emotionless Robot...and a Loli..." She said. "Well, no man could be unhappy around them." She shrugged.
"..." Reiji shook his head. "It looks like I'm gonna have to get them out of here too. And who are you to call anyone a Lolita?" He asked the girl, who grinned back at him. Then, shouting. "Hey! This place is off limits! What are you doing here?"
"Huh?" Shion looked in their direction. Staring, she then gasped. "Allen was right! KOS-MOS does have a virus! Two of them!"
"We are no longer in cyberspace, Shion." The azure haired woman replied, the one Reiji figured to be this KOS-MOS Shion was talking to. "This is the real world. Somehow we've been transferred to this planet."
"So...what are you saying?" Asked Shion. At the same time, Xiamou asked the same question to Reiji.
"...I believe the current danger backs up my former statement." Replied KOS-MOS.
"I-I knew that!"
"Of course, Shion."
"Was that Sarcasm!"
"Shion, I am incapable of emotion, remember?"
"Um...so where...are we?" The one called MOMO asked.
"Ah...I don't know how to answer that." Shion replied.
"We did not expect you to know, Shion."
"Okay, I know that was an insult, KOS-MOS!"
"Of course not, Shion."
"Sarcasm!"
"Shion...I think that's a Gnosis!" MOMO shouted, interrupting the 'argument' between the two. Shion wheeled around, seeing Reiji still watching them and the Xiamou locked in a fierce staring contest with the monster.
"It is!" She gasped. Then, "Eh...what is that girl doing?"
"...What's the matter? 'I can't take it anymore?'"
"You...can understand them?" Reiji asked, surprised at the girl's sudden speech. It seemed the staring of the Gnosis was really her speaking to it.
"Nah. But it seems anxious." She said. Reiji shook his head, turning back to the girls.
"Hey, this place is dangerous! Get to safety now!"
"So we aren't inside the Encephalon..." Shion continued ignoring him.
"You've been saying nothing but confusing things up until now. Attacks have no effect on them! I can't protect you! Get out of here!" Reiji shouted again. At this point, the blue haired woman stepped forward, a visor dropping over her eyes.
"Your concern is appreciated." She said. Then, "Shion! Activating Hilbert Effect!"
"Hilbert..?" Reiji blinked.
"Hey, wait, KOS-MOS! Its too dangerous! Who knows what could happen!" Shion said,
"Dangerous?" Reiji blinked again. "Hey, Xiamou...I think they're about to start firing!"
The android removed the visor briefly, then it dropped over her eyes again. "The presence of Gnosis indicates this as the optimal course of action."
"These people are in danger too, Shion." MOMO said.
"What the hell...?" Reiji blinked. "What the hell is going on? What the hell are they talking about?" However, his partner didn't respond. She was still listening to the Gnosis.
"Hmm..."
"..."
"Damn it! I can't take it anymore!" She shouted.
"KOS-MOS! Activate Hilbert Effect!"
"Understood. Hilbert Effect Activated!"
At once, Reiji heard Xiamou take a step back. "Huh! What the!"
"!" The Gnosis quickly responded, taking a few steps back. Xiamou grabbed Reiji's jacket, tugging a few times. Turning around, Reiji gasped as well; the Gnosis had become much more solid than before.
"I get the feeling they're not ghost anymore..." Said Xiamou.
"No, they were never ghost!" Said MOMO. "They were in between dimensions!"
"...Dimensions?" Reiji raised an eyebrow.
"Precisely. It was required to magnify the possible range of interference. In order to break the perceptual area limit of the alternate dimension, thus rendering all Gnosis vulnerable to attack." Said KOS-MOS. Reiji quickly placed a hand to his forehead, head throbbing from that confusing explanation.
"We get a confusing enemy to deal with, and now I got a confusing explanation on equipment..." He said. "What did that mean? In English?"
"We gave them physical bodies for you to touch." Said Shion.
"Really..." Said Xiamou with a grin. "Well...that means we can hack'em up now, Reiji!"
"Well, that means they have something to do with these monsters..." Said Reiji. Picking up his weapon rack, he drew his swords. "Well Xiamou, it looks like we have another clean up. Lets take these girls in for questioning later." With that, Reiji charged at the closest Gnosis.
Raising his sword, he sliced into it, carving a large gash into its chest. Slashing again, he sliced the Gnosis into two, neatly carved pieces of meat. "Well, they're wimps!" He blinked.
Meanwhile, limping down the street was a young male in a jacket and glasses. Grumbling under his breath, he walked the streets of Shibuya with confusion on top of hunger on top of confusion.
"They told me not to pick up that sword," said Kinzoku Souten Hyoukai. "I shouldn't have picked up that sword. I knew picking up that sword would be bad," Reaching in his jacket, he pulled out the very sword he was speaking of. "How was I supposed to know it would warp me miles away?" He moaned.
He froze the minute he heard a gunshot, however. Squinting through all the mist, he saw five figures surrounded by what looked like twelve monsters. "Huh. People in danger. But those aren't oni..." Then, squinting, his eyes locked onto something else: a tall, blue haired woman slicing into one of these monsters with a sword seemingly attached to her arm.
He gasped. "It can't be...can it!" Reaching in his jacket, he drew a small photo. There, the same blue haired woman sat, a far away look on her face. Kinzoku knew who this woman was. "I-its...KOS-MOS!" He then had a far away look of his own. "My love has returned to me!" With that, he sprinted, the obviously heavy sword not slowing him down a bit.
"DRAGON TOOTH!"
Slice
"R-Drill!"
Whirr
"FG-Shot!"
Bang Bang Bang.
"She is so cool!" Xiamou squealed as KOS-MOS walked through a crowd of Gnosis with no issue, Vulcan blazing left and right. All four watched as she stopped in front of a Gnosis, fist cocked back. She stopped.
...And sat there, frozen.
"...Hey! What gives! I was watching some grade-A carnage here!" Xiamou shouted.
"...Shion," KOS-MOS suddenly said. Turning around, her red eyes were now blue. Blue...and puffy. "Shion! I feel fat! Is my hair too long? How come I don't feel cute!"
"..." Xiamou and Reiji were speechless. "I take it back. That robot has feelings." Xiamou muttered.
"Oh no, it's happening again..." Shion slapped her forehead. "MOMO-chan! Now!"
"Yes! Henshin!" The little android nodded, spreading her arms. In a flash, her costume transformed to that of a pink schoolgirl out fit. Grabbing her bow, she fired just over KOS-MOS's head at the Gnosis...
"KOS-MOS! I SHALL PROTECT YOU!"
The Gnosis in question was split in half sending the arrow flying off into the distance. At once, KOS-MOS's eyes returned to their red color as a young man placed his hand on his shoulder. "There there, KOS-MOS. You're not fat, and you're definitely cute!"
"...Another one from your world?" Reiji asked.
"Never seen him in my life," Shion growled, seemingly disturbed by him placing a hand on KOS-MOS. "Hey! Who are you? KOS-MOS, do you know him!"
"Of course she does." He replied.
"...Unfortunately... This human's name is Kinzoku."
"We met not too long ago, and I fell in love!"
"...He was an ally in combat."
"KOS-MOS, come on. You felt what I feel, right?"
"...Negative."
"HAH!" Shion pointed and laughed. "Still mine!" However, there was a shout in the distance. All of them looked over where Reiji and Xiamou were standing moments ago. In the distance, four figures could be seen...
"I said stop! What part of closed off don't you understand!"
"CONTINUING MISSION!"
"Oh give it a rest already!"
One of the figures turned around. "CONTACT IS OBSTRUCTING MISSION. IDENTIFYING TARGET."
"Wh-what?"
"I think someone is in trouble," Kinzoku said.
"I think we found some more robots," Xiamou said, looking in KOS-MOS' direction. The group heard the sound footsteps, and a figure burst out of the mist, running towards them. With a skidding stop, this woman turned, facing three other women. "Oh my god..." Xiamou gasped, hands on her mouth.
"Hmm? What is it?" Reiji asked.
"Her legs...LOOK AT HER LEGS! MY GOD!"
"...Wow. Those are some killer thighs..."
"Are those natural?" Shion asked.
"They look almost swollen..." Kinzoku said, cleaning his glasses and looking again.
"...They appear to be muscled..." said KOS-MOS.
Chun-Li's eyebrows twitched upon hearing these comments. First these robot girls attack her, now these people are making comments about her legs. It wasn't until the blonde girl spoke again that she remembered her situation.
"...CURRENT SITUATION BEYOND CONTROL. UNKNOWN LIFEFORMS DETECTED." She said. "SHADOLOO AGENT CAMMY RETURNING TO BASE. AGENTS JUNI AND JULI, QUERY?"
"JUNI WILL REMAIN."
"JULI WILL REMAIN."
This little speech would have continued, had one of the Gnosis not lunged at Cammy. The girl caught this large creature, not looking in its direction at all. Throwing it at Chun-Li, she looked to her allies. With a nod, she was gone in a sound similar to rushing water.
"Ack! What!" Chun-Li shouted as the Gnosis flew at her. Delivering a well-timed kick, she knocked it skyward, only for it to be torn apart by gunfire from KOS-MOS, Reiji, and Xiamou. This prompted the attention of the Shadoloo girls, who looked in their direction.
"TARGET IDENTIFIED AS CHUN-LI. COMENCING COMBAT." With that, Juni shot forward, spinning like a spear. "CANNON SPIKE!"
"TARGET ADJUSTED," Said Juli. "TARGET COMFIRMED, ARISU REIJI. ORIGINAL TARGET FOUND. COMENCING SAMPLING." Reiji raised an eyebrow.
"...How does she know me?" He asked.
"Because you're so sexy, Reiji." Xiamou teased. "I wonder if she'll sample me?"
"ADDITIONAL TARGET ACQUIRED. ADDITIONAL TARGET DEEMED NOT A THREAT."
"WHAT?" Xiamou screamed. Drawing her gun, she then shouted. "I'll show you who's not a threat!" With that, she opened fire on the girl, who quickly ran at them as well. Nimbly dodging, Juli delivered a swift kick to Xiamou, knocking her into Reiji and sending them to the ground. Reiji rolled as the girl punched the ground, breaking the cement with her fist.
"We got to help them," Said Kinzoku, but was grabbed by KOS-MOS. "Oh? What does this mean?"
"There are still Gnosis in the area. We must deal with them before dealing with the human targets." KOS-MOS replied. "Arisu Reiji is capable of combat on his own." With that, she faced the Gnosis, vulcan drawn.
"Well then...please feel safe, KOS-MOS!" With that, he charged into combat, wildly swinging his sword at the Gnosis. However, during this time, the azure haired android was still targeting. "Kinzoku is in the way. Approximate wait time; 30 seconds."
Thirty seconds passed. Kin was still swinging his sword, Reiji and Chun-Li were still fighting, and Shion and MOMO were also still fighting. KOS-MOS simply raised her Vulcan. With a vocal warning of "Kinzoku!" She opened fire.
"Huh-ACK!" Bullets impacted on the Gnosis, but also collided with Kin. Knocked aside, the victims of this attack all shuddered and died. Save for Kinzoku, of course, who stood up. Looking at his clothes, the bullets tore holes in his jacket. "Hey! That's no way to treat someone you love!"
Meanwhile, Chun-Li jumped over another Cannon Spike. Planting her hand on the ground, she flipped, slamming her foot into Juni's face. The girl rolled with the blow, standing up, but found her self in a poor position. Many, many kicks collided with her face, sending her reeling from the blow.
At the same time, Reiji and Xiamou delivered a double cut to Juli, slashing the back of her uniform. Planting her staff into the ground, Xiamou delivered a swinging kick to Juli's face like Chun-Li did. Staggering, she held out her hand!
"Reiji!"
"Right! Lets go!
"SUPAKUU WAVE!"
Four orbs of electricity hovered around Juli, but were quickly linked together by lightning chains, shocking her. Reiji drew his sword, slashing numerous times, sword flashing with fire and lightning as well. Sheathing his sword, he drew another, one much longer. With a powerful slash, the girl was sent skidding away, colliding with her teammate that Chun-Li has finished off.
"H-HEAVY DAMAGE...REMAINING LPO: .55 ...ESTIMATED RECOVERY TIME: 180 SECONDS." Said Juni, who appeared to be gasping.
"MISSION UNLIKELY TO BE ACCOMPLISHED." Agreed Juli. " INTERRUPTING SAMPLING AT 52. RETURNING TO BASE." With that, the girls began to leave, walking in the opposite direction before breaking into a full run.
"H-hey! Get back here!" Chun-Li shouted, running after them.
"Hey! They're leaving! We won!" Shouted Xiamou.
"I can't let them escape!" She replied. With that, she continued, charging at them in chase.
"...Shall I persue?" KOS-MOS asked.
"We could always catch up with them..." Said Shion.
"...No, let her go." Reiji said. "...We still have to report to headquarters." Reiji looked in their directions. "Oh, that means you too, by the way." With that, he began to walk. "Come on, lets go."
"...Um...we're under arrest?" Kinzoku asked. "I just go here!"
"We're just going in for questioning," Shion muttered. "Oh. And get your dirty hands off KOS-MOS! I'm gonna have to clean all those bloody finger prints off because of you!"
"Hey, I'm sorry! Not like you don't enjoy, though..."
"I so do not!"
In the distance, a woman watched this small group travel. Sitting in at a bench, she giggled as they passed, taking a sip from a bottle. "Well, it looks like Arisu Reiji made some friends, eh boys?"
"Looks that way." Said a man in a red jacket, also drinking from a bottle. "So miss sexy fox lady, shall we go in?"
"Because, you know, we are pretty much your slaves and such..." Said another in a blue jacket, taking a sip from a bottle as well.
"Not yet. Just enjoy your sodas." She smiled. "Let's just enjoy the show. Okay Cecil? Manic?"
"Yes ma'am. (God I hate this job)." Muttered the one in the blue jacket, Cecil.
"No sweat, miss. (I know what you mean)." Replied the one in the red jacket, Manic.
"Hm? Did you say something?"
"No ma'am."
"Good. Now Cecil, mama needs a new coat of nail polish. And Manic, my weapons need a good wax job."
"..."
"..."
"I mean it! Get to work!"
"Yes ma'am..."
Prolouge one complete. Yes, it's long. Yes, they get longer. Yes, this is based on a real game, so I'm not taking any request. Read and Review : )
