Chapter 5: Chrono Confusion
Time: 1200 Hours; 23rd of July, 2125 (Outside World time).
Location: Kawashiro Electronics Headquarters, Mechanical Research Sector.
Down at the Mechanical Research Sector of Kawashiro Electronics HQ, a group of kappa Engineers are seen dismantling a plane carcass using Blowtorches and Electric Saws. A logo can be seen clearly on one of the removed panels that reads "HMF".
"So, Nitori, how's the research going on the cargo inside that plane?" Yukari asked Nitori, via a gap. Yukari has not walked out of the gap, though.
"No. The systems inside the cargos puzzled us all." Nitori replied. "You said the Outside World is currently the 22nd century, right?"
Omega E the Reader: The kappas are VERY good with tech so something like advanced tech wouldn't hold them back when it comes to trying to replicate it.
Lt Colonel Summers: But they still need to UNDERSTAND how the tech works before they can successfully replicate it. They could try without understanding it first, but the end result would be something that breaks down after running just one line of code. So yeah, disagree.
Sin Count: 39 (sin shot down)
"True. Why?" Yukari puzzled over Nitori's question.
"Because the cargos are more like 25th century technology. The plane itself is a mix of 20th and 21st century tech." Nitori answered.
"I can't answer that, so I'll leave the rest to your people. Now I have to go to Eientei Clinic to get this bullet out of my ankle." Yukari finishes what she has to say, then she closes the gap.
Omega E the Reader: That's dumb. Yukari could easily heal herself up if she wants to via her manipulation of wounds and health. Plus WHY would she go get healed by her rival which is Eirin that is very stupid.
Lt Colonel Summers: Not gonna disagree with this one. It does deserve sinning.
Sin Count: 40

Meanwhile, at the Landing Site...
LT is sitting on a box, inspecting the new anonymous message that was just typed onto the HUD of his Scouter's Goggles.
If you did want to go home, you can use your technology to find those tubes, which I'm pretty sure is what you're doing right now. But let me tell you something: I gave those tubes to the superpowers of Gensokyo, and fighting them will be futile, so that makes no difference than what I originally intended. Have a nice death 3... Y. Yakumo
Omega E the Reader: Yukari would have murdered them all herself or send her most loyal Youkai followers to kill them.
Lunatic-Over'9000'Lord: Also, it says it's an anonymous message, yet it's SIGNED!
Lt Colonel Summers: What was I thinking when I said it was anonymous but then have it be signed? Double sin!
Sin Count: 42
"Looks like we're in a world mankind has never even seen before..." LT thought.
Right hand man arrives at the scene. "Sir, I've finished packing up for the trip, all weapons are fully loaded, and also checked for sabotages. They're all fine. I've also located the stolen ZPMs." He told his superior.
LT stood up and wore his Goggles. "By recalibrating the Radars on the Scouter's Goggles to pick up the ZPMs' power signatures, since whoever this Y. Yakumo is probably took the tracking tags off." LT then remembered something. "This bitch also mentioned a place called Gensokyo, and apparently the ZPMs are currently in possession of the most powerful minds." LT then checked his Watch, but not for the time, as he is fiddling with the display, and it was also unusually designed too. Then he looked back at his right hand man. "You'll lead the RAIDERS..." LT ordered when David and Edge suddenly barged in, both saying "What? Him?" in unity, which LT ignored. "...And I'll lead the Guards and Turks."
"If it is required, you will pummel all those superpowers just to get the ZPMs back. That's what you're going to say, is it?" Right hand man caught up.
Alice Lou's doll, Shanghai, suddenly barged in, "You are ruining the suspense!" and proceeds to give him a tiny slap.
Omega E the Reader: I hate this rip off of the Shanghai doll. She sounds kinda rude and annoying as well.
Lt Colonel Summers: She's not meant to be rude. But if you think she's annoying, I do agree with you.
Sin Count: 43
...
30 minutes has passed since the group of Outsiders started their trek.
Reimu and Marisa, along with Yukari who is peeking out of her gap, spied on the Outsiders.
Yukari, after her previous encounter with LT at the Landing Site, warned the other two girls. "Stay really far away from them while watching them. They have a pair of advanced goggles that can detect trails of Magic, which can't detect itself. That guy is also extremely attentive, so stay silent."
"What do you expect to do that can stall them?" Reimu asked Yukari.
"Just good ol' fairies. Lots of 'em" Yukari replied. She then waves her right arm. "Now get inside before that spellcard somehow draws their attention." Yukari signaled Reimu and Marisa to get inside her gap, which she retreated into.
Omega E the Reader; Spell card? Really I think the moment they killed Rumia is the moment the spell card rules should be discarded as they shouldn't care about using the spell card rules.
Lt Colonel Summers: The canon SCR did say that non-lethality is thrown out the window when someone got killed. So yeah, sin it is.
Sin Count: 44
...
There was a rustle in the bushes...
LT signaled the group to stop via a hand gesture normally done by military training instructors. "I had enough of rustlings. Prepare for battle!" He ordered everyone, and they all pulled out their weapons. "Anything?" He then asked his right hand man.
"I'm picking up traces of objects emitting Magika coming toward us. No Bio-Signs, just like that girl back there." Right hand man replied, while scanning the surroundings. "And the objects are increasing in numbers."
LT unsheathed the Zantankuto and held it in a battle stance. The Guards aimed their submachine guns in true soldier fashion, while the Turks also unsheathed their dual Zantetsu-Maru, which appears to be able to connect with each other on the tip of the grip, forming something of a bladed tonfa.
The RAIDERS also prepared for combat. "Find a place to hide." Alice Lou told Shanghai. The small doll flies toward a small rock and goes behind it.
Another rustle. Everybody decided to stay silent. Silent as it went, until...
"Charge!" A childish female voice yelled, and out came a swarm of child-sized humanoids with small wings on their back.
"So much Magika that they are flooding the scanners! Battle-stations!" LT yelled at everyone, and everyone starts swinging or firing their weapons at the swarm. "Never expected this many fairies to fight us at once..."
...
Time: 1235 Hour; 23rd of July, 2125 (Outside World time)
Location: Eientei Clinic, Eirin's Office.
"I still don't know what to say of this projectile. I have never seen this type of ballistics before." Eirin Yagokoro, for the first time in her history of treating war wounds and analyzing the cause, was stumped.
Yukari was not amused. "Then does Reisen or the Lunarian Defense Force know anything that resembles it?"
"No." Eirin continued her analyzing on the bullet using a Magnifying Glass. "The Lunarians did develop something like this, but the biggest bang they got from this bullet size was a single spark. This bullet from the Outside World, according to your description, packs as much explosion as a bundle of Dynamite?"
Omega E the Reader: WHAT?! Eirin would instantly know what that is as she comes from a civilization that is so ADVANCED that they are basically stagnating! Plus the Lunarians would do that but the size of a fucking nuke! If not more! Add 2 sins because Yukari allows her rival to heal herself while the inaccurate portrayal of the Lunarians plus Eirin on tech.
Lt Colonel Summers: This depiction came about due to me both wanking the Outside World and nerfing the Lunarians at the same time. So double sin it is.
Sin Count: 46
"Yeah." Yukari lamshaded, "The Outsiders are technologically 300 years more advance than they chronologically are, all thanks to that genius." Yukari then added, "Apparently the STI's development protocols including recycling old technologies in case newer ones don't work. They have machine guns and laser weapons at the same time." Yukari then reached for the bullet.
Omega E the Reader: Add one sin for blatant lampshading.
Sin Count: 47
Eirin quickly placed the bullet down, out of reach from Yukari. "I wouldn't recommend anyone touching this for now, it is apparently still live, as you can see."
It was true, the bullet seems to be constantly emitting a faint red glow, but had yet to detonate.
"And according to you, these bullets are also detonated by pressing a small button from the gun that fired it." Eirin spoke. "Triggered by wireless signals, and we only just developed short ranged wired signals..."
"I know what you're thinking." Yukari caught on. "And I will make sure that they don't get back with any info from Gensokyo. To do that, I took something that allowed them to enter our world in the first place, and gave these things to the four superpowers of Gensokyo. Including your mistress."
Eirin was surprised at the measures Yukari took. "Gods, you're so ruthless. But you seems to have forgotten that they just killed Rumia using weapons of science..."
Yukari was dumbstruck by that. "Well... Let's just hope that Remilla and the others can use their abilities to defeat the Outsiders..." She said before leaving in a gap.
...
Back at the ambush of fairies...
Lots of fairies are being killed by the group. Some shot to bits, some beheaded, some sliced in half, and some blew up by the Boomer pistols. The bodies of the dead fairies all became glowing wisp-like objects similar to the one that blond girl in black dress became. But needless to say, the whole forest is spilled with blood. Strangely enough, the group themselves have no blood on them.
Omega E the Reader: That is too convenient for my standards they should be DRENCHED in blood, and yet no blood on them whatsoever? How come they aren't soaked in the blood?! Also add another sin as I do remember that a shit ton of fairies are capable of being dangerous seen in DitR where they could have overwhelmed the incident resolvers.
Lunatic-Over'9000'Lord: Literally saying they don't have any blood on them and not even bothering to explain. Pure Gary Stu.
Lt Colonel Summers: Not even sure why I bothered in the first place...
Sin count: 48
"That's way more carnage than the war with the STICK Army a few years ago..." Commented David.
"Any new challenger?" Edge lampshaded at the sudden lack of challenges. "One of those fairies are already problematic. Since we have to kill the same one over and over again until she gives up and runs off."
"There's like puddles of blood everywhere!" Alice Lou sulked in disgust, looking at all the blood left by the carnage.
"They're very fast and hard to hit, even with extreme aiming skills..." So commented Takagi.
LT ejected the overheated power cell from the Doomstick, and as he stabs the Zantankuto on the ground, blood stains on it starts to seep into the soft soil. The Turks' Zantetsu-Maru are also stained, but not as much. Each of the Guards inserted a fresh magazine into their submachine guns.
"Don't relax just yet, sir. I'm detecting another source of Magika Radiation headed our way. This one is emitting more Magika than those last ones." Right hand man reminded.
LT tried to scan with his Scouter's Goggles, but the lens started to become foggy, and eventually freeze up enough to block out the HUDs. "Damm, we have an ice person coming right up. Keep warm, everyone..." He ordered as he takes off his Goggles and pockets it. His right hand man did the same.
As everyone prepares for the stronger foe, Shanghai came out to take a peek at the scene. She too was disgusted by the puddles of blood, but was the first to notice that they are literately freezing up. She tried to tell Alice Lou about the occurrence, but before she could do so, she was frozen in an ice cube, and falls onto the ground.
Alice Lou was shocked at what her doll has just became...
LT, noticing the doll being frozen up, shouted, "Target just went past us, we can't use the Goggles so keep your eyes peeled and your ears active!"
Another feminine yelling was heard. LT wondered why all the attackers so far would yell. "Why can't the enemies ever attack silently? This always happens in the movies..."
"I'll cryo-freeze you together with some English Beef!"
Lt Colonel Summers: Okay, so neither Omega E nor Lunatic has sinned this, but I'm going to because Cirno's "English Beef" boast wouldn't have made sense in this universe due to England being called Bevelle. At first, I was going with the idea that the nations only got their current FBVerse names at the start of the previously mentioned unmade story. But at later times forgot about it and made it so that the nations have always been called by their FBVerse names. So, sinned 10 times for inconsistency of a lore that isn't even explained.
Sin counter: 58
