We are Sento
Tabane:(points to bottles) That there…. Is a Best Match... I'll say it once more… That's a Best Match.
Ichika:(confused) Sorry, I still don't get if no matter how many times you say it.
Tabane:(walks over to bottles) Each bottle has a compatible match with another.(grabbes bottles) For example, Rabbit and Tank. If you insert these two bottles.
I take the bottles off the panel and I get back to where the rest of the bottles are, as Tabane continues to explain the Best Match to the Meathead.
"If you insert these two bottles..." Tabane places the two bottles into the panel, a light showing in the middle the best match.
Tabane:(points) If you find a combination with a successful compatibility, they'll glow like this. Once we find all of the Best Matches available, something amazing will surely happen. But it's been considerably hard to find such matching sets.
Sento:(grabs belt) That's why this is needed. This was originally an invention only used for Build to transform, but I modified it so that it has a function to scan for Best Matches too. Remember?
Ichika: Ah! That's right. The belt did say Best Match when you transformed.
"Exactly. Just as you said." Tabane places the Rabbit and Tank full bottles into the driver.
"Rabbit! Tank! Best Match!" The driver says showing the combo.
"Well? How do you like my invention?" I say showing off the driver to Ichika. How will you counter this?
Ichika: Oh~(takes driver) Well… I bet I can find one in one go.
Sento:(scoffs) You've said it now… You meathead. If you say so, then do it.(grabs bottle) You remember this right? It's the Sojiki bottle.(hands bottle to Ichika) Find the Best Match for this bottle.(Ichika takes bottle) Though I doubt you could ever figure out which bottle it is in one go.
Ichika looks at the bottles on the table in front of him. He takes the Lion bottle, and takes a look at the bottle. He shrugs as he places the two bottles into the driver.
"Lion! Sojiki Best Match!" As I-….Wait… WHAT?! H-How, How?!
"No way!" I exclaim. It took me so long to figure it out… And I already had the right bottles?!
"Bravo!" Tabane says in excitement of the Best Match.
Ichika:(smiles) See?(walks over to Sento) What do you thing about my sixth sense?
Sento:(butt hurt) Wait. If that's the case… What kinds of attacks would it be able to inflict?
Tabane:(looks at Ichika) Ikkun! How did you know that they made a Best Match?
Ichika:(looks at driver) Well, if I must say…(shows off driver) A lifeform and a machine.
Really? That's how he figured it out? It's that simple?
"There's no way you'd know with such a childish way of thinking." I know I can overthink certain things a lot. But still! Even so! This is an upset!
"In order for me to identify a Best Match, I have to conduct a paradox of quantum mechanics-" Suddenly, something flies right in front of us, hitting the door of the fabricator and embedding itself in the door. A cold feeling enter's our spines as we slowly turn to Chole. Her Dark eyes with her Ember pupils give off an almost demon like feeling. Her presence burning with rage.
Chloe:(twits eye mask) Do you want to be sliced in two?
Sento, Ichika, and Tabane:(terrified) S-So sorry…
Touto government capitol The next day…
I decided to take this knowledge of Nabeshima and Katsuragi Takumi's case to the government, to see their take on it. I request to meet with Gentoku-san and I meet him in the main lobby room, overlooking where the Pandora's Box is held.
"Nabeshima? Never heard of him." Gen-san says looking at the picture. I expected as much.
"What if I told you that he's related to the murder of Katsuragi-san?" Gen-san pauses at the prospect, then he turns back to me.
Gen:(raises eyebrow) You're saying that despite the hard evidence, This Nabeshima-san… and Katsuragi-san's murder have a connection?
Sento: Well not necessarily. No.(shakes head) I'm curious though. What kind of person was Katsuragi-san?
Gen-san pulls out his phone and pulls up a picture of a man, looks to be in his early 20's. Dark brown eyes, brown hair, and wearing a Touto government science uniform.
"This is Katsuragi Takumi. He was the person in charge of the Pandora Box investigation. Katsuragi-san was the genius scientist acknowledged by everyone." Gen-sans face becomes more serious, often he gets like this when he talks about something very serious.
Gen:(turns away) However. His closest friends called him… "The Demonic Scientist."
Sento:(looks to Gen) "The Demonic Scientist?"
Gen: Sigh~(turns to Sento) Enough about that. How's your work at the IS academy so far?
Changing the subject? Why so suddenly?... No, now is not the best not to dig into it right now.
"Oh fine. Just basic school work as of right now… Though I did hear about some sort of physical happening over in the dorms. I'm planning to investigate it." That seems to satisfy Gen-san.
"Good. Report anything that is of concern to us." I give a bow and walk off.
IS Academy… Lunch.
I was invited by Chifuyu to eat lunch with her and Yamada-san. She's bringing me up on events.
"Then, they challenged each other to a duel. On the first day!" Yamada-san groans, as she lies down in her seat. Is setting up one match at the beginning of the year difficult? I look over to another table where Ichika and Houki-san eat together. Apparently that event in the dorms was due to a misunderstanding the two had in there dorm room. Kids these days…
Sento:(looks to Yamada) You know it sounds like I'm here to let out all your problems.
Yamada:(sits up) Ah! No! I don't mean that at all!
Chifuyu: Really? You're not here to listen to our problems?(pours salt into coffee) Isn't that your job?
Sento:(looks to Chifuyu) Very funny. But that's a therapist's job. Also. What you poured in…(points to coffee) Its salt.
I'm too late. Chifuyu had taken a sip and immidly spats it out. It hits my face. Everyone looks over to see what happened. Only to see my face covered by Coffee.
"S-Sorry." Chifuyu says looking at me. I just slowly get out of my seat and over to where the napkins are. This is terrible. I think to myself as I wipe off the coffee.
Sento:(sighs) I-It's fine. Chifuyu…(Wipes coffee) There's something else you want to ask me?
Chifuyu:(nods) Yeah. I need you and Tabane to prepare an IS by next week.
An IS by next week? Yeah, okay. I think we have a spare core and parts to make an IS by next week. But first I want to get this damn salt taste off my face!
One week later…
No Smash attacks, and it's taken longer for Chloe's fan's to gather information to Nabeshima. But that's not important right now. It's the duel for Class Rep. Based in arena 3, I take the IS and place it on the transport pad. The doors open, their stands Ichika, and Yamada-san.
Sento: Here you are Ichika. You're personal IS. The Byakushiki.
Ichika:(looks at IS) Whoa. That's awesome.
Sento:(smiles) I know right? Be grateful that two genius decided to prepare this for you.
Ichika:(annoyed) I suddenly feel incredible ungrateful about this.
"Oh shut it and get in the suit." Ichika steps in, and the armor beings to close up. I guide the system with my tablet. Then it jams in an odd position. Due to me obviously.
"OW! Wh-What the?" Ichika exclaims as he moves around in the suit. I "Try" to unjam him from the odd position. I'm gonna have some fun with this.
"Ichika! Stop moving around!" I keep setting the Armor to close around Ichika in odd positions.
Ichika: Wait. You're aren't doing this on purpose are you?
Sento: Well….(smirks)
Ichika:(angry) You ass! Just finish the fitting!
"Okay, Okay. Just hold still is all I'm asking. I never said I'm the cause of this." I set the armor back to the default state, and I go with the auto procedure the armor fits on perfectly.
"Y-... You were totally messing with me!" Don't respond. He has no proof. The rest of the armor finishes setting up. The armor currently takes the look of the standard form of an inactive IS with its a grey tone and wings closed up.
"Hey. Is there a place where I can put the Bottle?" Ichika asks. I tap a few buttons on my tablet and a compartment on the right leg opens up. Ichika looks at the compartment.
"Thanks." He puts the Dragon bottle inside, I continue to finish the setup of the armor.
Sento:(nods) Okay you're good to go. How do you feel?
Ichika:(clenching fist) I'm doing fine. Sento, Chifuyu-nee. I can do it.(turns to Houki) Houki, I'm heading off.
Houki:(nods) Yeah. Win and come back.
Ichika leaves and the four of us head to the monitoring room. Entering the room, the message system rings. I go over to the console and answer the message.
"Hey, we got a girl walking around in the restricted areas of the Academy. Can someone see what's going on?" The location of the girl is displayed on the screen after. The work at the IS academy never seems to end. I go towards the door.
"I got this.(calls) This is Sento. I'm on my way to handle this." I leave the room, and I head off to find the girl.
IS Academy lower levels.
Let's see… I'm looking for a Kiyoka Aikawa. A first year. I look around, I pull up a Map on my HUD. Oh. Did I not mention that I had a Hud? It connects to an ear piece I have. I follow the map to her ID. I arrive to see Kiyoka-san looking around frantically and shouting a name.
Kiyoka: Nohotoke-chan! Where are you?!
Sento:(walks over) Hey! What are you doing down here? This is a restricted area.
Kiyoka:(turns to Sento) Ah! Kiryu-sensei! I'm so sorry! I didn't mean to be down here. I'm looking for a girl. Her name is Nohotoke.
Sento:(pulls up file) Honne Nohotoke-san. Huh… According to this, she should be right...(points) over their.
The two of us look over to see a… Gatling Smash, walk out from the shadows. What?! How? How did a Smash… Unless. I check the Smash, I see no blood, no parts of a uniform… And the ID is… Inside the Smash.
"A-A Smash? Did it… Kill..." Kiyoka-san says backing up.
Sento:(Shakes head) This is terrible… That's is Honne-san… She's been transformed into a Smash.
