Death and Rebirth: Tale of Chaos
Prologue Part 3
Disclaimer: Blah blah blah, I don't own jack.
Anyways, thanks for those who've read this story hope you like it so far. And thanks to Trelao Tagnik'zur who was the first person to review, and remind me about keeping the facts straight. So on that note I re-read my fic and made a slight 'revision' to parts 1 and 2 of the Prologue(if you can call adding 2 or 3 sentences a revision) to keep the facts straight and clear. Anyways on with the fic.
When I awoke I felt disoriented. My vision was hazy at best, but I could tell there was someone else with me. I was on a bed, I realized, we had been rescued from that hell only we were being brought to a new one. I remember now, everything became clearer as I recalled the chain of events that led to this moment.
When Flowen and myself had come to we were injured and extremely exhausted, but that didn't stop me, I needed answers. Flowen was in no shape to fight back as I slammed him into a wall nearby. Anger fueled by fear kept me going, I had to know the truth and I would get it.
"You knew! You knew what was down there, yet you allowed us to go there blind! Why? Why didn't you tell us? We could've been more prepared, the others might have survived if you had just given us some Goddamn information!"
Flowen, tired as he was, didn't have much of an expression on his face. Hell, I think he was struggling to stay alive, but at the time I didn't care. 'It was his fault', I told myself 'he could die right now for all I care.' But that wasn't true, I needed him alive if I wanted the truth I sought, because I knew the government would tell me nothing. As I held him there, a look of defeat emerged on him, and then he spoke.
"I thought we could handle it. I had chosen the best, everyone of those soldiers were some of the best we had, and of course there was you. Azrael, one of the best hunters around next to 'Great Sword' Zoke and Donoph. But you're right, if I had given you all the information we probably would've stood a better chance," Flowen said to me. He stayed silent for a bit longer before I demanded the truth.
"What was that thing, and those creatures? What the hell are they if by causing a single injury they can change others into one of them. Tell me, tell me!"
"I don't know," he said "while I've seen the creatures we never identified them. As for the transformations, I was unaware of that as well, the last team that went were all killed so we had no idea. As for that being, again we haven't identified it, we simply call the damn thing 'IT'. The real reason we came to these 'ruins' was to destroy 'IT'. We thought the plan we had would work, but as you can see 'IT' was one step ahead of us."
I was going to question him more, the way he said 'ruins' it meant that he knew what that place really was. But I was getting tired, and once again I felt that familiar feeling of darkness take hold of me.
When I came to, I was in a hospital along with Flowen. Around us were some of the greatest minds of Pioneer 1, though I only recognized Dr. Otso and Dr. Graves. They were talking about something, it was hard to make out since I was still tired. In fact all I really got was something about 'D-type Cells' and 'D-Type Factor' the rest I had no idea of, but by the look of Dr. Otso's face it was some kind of breakthrough, but all it did was make me feel all the more suspicious and afraid.
Everyone heard a moan coming from the bed next to me. Flowen had regained consciousness, as he looked around at everyone Dr. Otso began spouting off some shit about this 'D-Type Factor'. What I managed to 'translate' from everything he said was this. The injuries we had sustained in the ruins infected our bodies with some type of new cell, which he dubs 'D-Type Cells'. The 'D-Type Factor' was what causes the mutation of the body when the body is infected with the cells. I became even more suspicious after that, that meant the he knew what would happen to us if we were injured and managed to make it back. However, according to him, our bodies we're somehow fighting off both the 'D-Type Cells' in our bodies, as well as the awakening of the 'D-Type Factor', plus it seems the farther we are from the ruins the slower the cells work.
It was then he gave us our 'offer' if you could call it that. He wanted us to help him in his research by becoming his gineau pigs. I detested the idea of becoming some kind of toy, however, in the end I agreed. Flowen agreed as well on the condition that we send a message to our home planet Coral. To tell them to postpone the trip to Ragol, that it wasn't safe to come here yet. They agreed to his conditions, but I knew they wouldn't send the message.
And that brings us to this moment. We're on our way to some island they call Gal Da Val. Apparently there is some kind of research facility there. Flowen and myself were announced dead by the government. So here was where our old lives end, and our new one begins. But, in the end this would simply open a new horror that would help bring about the end.
Sorry for the delay for those who like this fic, I've had little free time and Real Life has been nagging on me for a while. Well I like the way this chapter came out so far. All thats left in one last part to the Prologue before the actual story begins. In other news, there will be more OCs in this fic but most of them with the exception of 3 won't play any important parts in the story. As I'm sure you guessed from the last sentence I'm going with making a party of 4 for most of this story (with the exception of when this story gets to Ep3, tho still not positive yet). Anyways my 'creative juices' aren't working for me on this part just yet, so I'm giving you all a little present. I'm leaving the positions of the OCs to you, so to anyone who's interested you can e-mail/message/review to me your OC, include the following: Name, Gender, Race/Class, Physical Description, Mental Description(Personality for those who are going "WHAT?") and a choice of 2 or 3 weapons from the actual games that you would like them to use(no guarantees on if they actually have them), Shield(not armor, waste of time IMO) and Mag. So there you go, I'll choose 3 of the ones I like best and add them in the fics as semi-main characters, but they'll most likely not show up until at least Chapter 2 or 3 of this fic and of course you will get credit for this. But, of course there will be a deadline to this, so to anyone wishing to add their OC you have till July 19, thats two weeks from this date which is July 5. I will accept 2 OCs from a single person at most. Anyone whose OC isn't part of the main party will probably be added in the small parts where I throw other OCs in. On one last note to end this LONG AN, the equipment Azrael has won't be 'shown' until the actual start of the story, but I'm a lover of Katana's so he will have 1, which one I'm not sure with the exception of the 3 Zoke has which are Sange, Yasha, and Kamui. Well till next time.
