Chapter Ten:

chaos' story

((chaos))

"Ok, what the hell was that all about?" Jr. cried out, as soon as we were back inside the Elsa. "We hear explosions, see you fighting some mystery woman, and then you rush us back here with no explanation!"

"Yes..." Jin agreed "I'd like to know what's going on as well..."

"Well..." Shion looked at me. "We have something to tell you then."

I looked at her in disbelief. "Are you sure?" she nodded back, and we told them our story. About how we switched bodies because of the gas, and how... we had to fall in love.

Jr.'s eyes were wide with disbelief. He then, broke out laughing hysterically. "Hahaha! You two have to fall in love! Gotta get it on with yourself! HAHAHAHAHA!"

"Um, Jr..." I glanced at Shion, who seemed angered by Jr. "That isn't a good idea..."

But he wouldn't stop. He just kept on laughing. "Jr..." Shion growled. "Shut up!" she hit him square in the chest with a very small aura ball. Small enough so it wouldn't hurt him, but large enough to make a hole in his shirt.

"What the hell was that for!" he yelled out. "This was my favorite shirt!"

"Well, maybe now you won't laugh at us." Shion said matter-of-factly.

"It was funny though..." he muttered, sticking his finger through the hole in his shirt.

"I knew it." Momo suddenly said.

"You did?" I asked, surprised that she knew.

"I'm a 100-series Observational Unit... of course I saw something odd. Like the night of your date..." we both blushed at that. "Yes, I saw you two leave... and chaos' voice woke me when you returned. Then I heard Shion saying something about 'That was my face I was about to kiss.'. If Shion was talking to chaos, and she said his face was actually her face... then you two must've somehow switched bodies..."

I was astonished. "Wow... you actually got it."

"I am a 100-Series after all." she smiled, happy at herself for figuring it out.

"Enough of this, I think we should just get on with the explanation." Ziggy said.

"Yeah." Jr. stopped fiddling with his shirt. "Who was that chick anyway?"

"Ok..." I said. "Here goes...

As some of you may or may not know, I'm not human. I'm of a special race... called the Defenders. We are the sole protectors of the emulators."

"The emulators?" Jr. asked. "But didn't that Patriarch say something about the Zohar belonging to them? To... what's it's name...?"

"To Ormus." Jin finished for Jr.

"Yeah, that thing."

"Well..." I said. "That's correct. Ormus had power over the Zohar, but we Guardians had to watch over the 13 emulators. When put together, the emulators can rival the power of the Zohar."

"The emulators are stronger than the Zohar?" Shion gasped.

"No..." I assured her. "When they're all put together, their power becomes equal to the power of the Zohar."

"Ok, I understand that..." Ziggy nodded. "But who was that woman? She had attacks just like you!"

"She..." her face suddenly came up in my mind. "Is one of the last Guardians. She and myself, actually, are the last Guardians. We're not all like her though. The Guardians were a peaceful people. We all lived peacefully on our planet, using our aura skills to drive away anyone who wanted to exploit the powers of the emulators. There was one person though, who wanted more. She sought power beyond her imagination... she sought the power of the emulators."

"And that was the woman?" Ziggy asked.

"Yes. That was Uichi. She formed a group of Guardians like her, and waged war on the protectors of the emulators. She was... my girlfriend at that time." I glanced at Shion, but went back to my story. "When I found out what she was planning on doing, we broke up, and fought over it. Our battle led to the holding place of the emulators. There, she summoned the powers of the emulators, and flew into space with them."

"Into space?" Momo asked. "How's that possible?"

"Well, we Guardians have many special powers. Two of which, are long life and the ability to breath in space. Anyways... I followed her to space, planning on fighting her for the emulators. It was too late though... she took in their power and blew up the entire planet." I held back tears. "I was about to take their power and kill her...But in a desperate move, she scattered the emulators, and we split paths from there. That was a few hundred years ago."

"A few hundred years?" everyone gasped.

"Wow..." Jr whistled. "And you're still not married! Sucks to be you..." he grinned.

"Who says he hasn't?" Shion stared him down. "He's lived longer than you!

"Nobody!" he backed away, afraid he might provoke Shion again. "I just thought..."

"Just let me finish..." I said, wanting to prevent another quarrel. "After that, I wandered the star cluster, searching for the emulators. A few hundred years later... I came upon Jr. He happened to have most of the emulators in his possession, so I decided to join him. Soon after, we gathered the rest of the emulators, and eventually the Zohar. I stayed with them, hoping Uichi wouldn't come for them, but it seems like we came to her."

"Wow... I never knew..." breathed Jr.

"Looks like we're headed off to the Foundation then..." Shion said.

"Not till the morning!" Matthews suddenly walked in. It's dark out, and you guys need sleep." he seemed a bit nicer than earlier. "We shove off first thing in the morning though, so be ready!"
