IS Infinite Build
Construct 20: What the Bot?!
Sento:(sigh) Finally, I have the intro all to myself again. Ahem. So last construct, Tabane and Chloe explained their connection to Faust. Tabane was a former agent of Faust, if only to get to Chloe. Who she couldn't just let become one of Faust's puppets, so Tabane took her, the bottles, and the Build Driver. Along with the Pandora panel that was in the wall. Now what will happen in Construct 20?! Sigh~ Feels so good to be the star again.

The IS Academy We are Sento
I sit at my desk working on papers, when I get a knock at the door. Hmm?
"Come in." The door opens to Rin-chan… Hmm, she seems to be in a bad mood.
"What seems to be the problem Rin-chan? You don't seem to be in the best mood." She seems surprised at first, but then nods and takes a seat.
Rin:(sits down) Yeah. I'm just… AGH~! Why doesn't he understand?!
Sento:(sweatdrop) Phoo~ boy, here we go. By "He" I assume Banjou-kun?
Rin:(nods) Yeah. He's just so… So… So!
Sento:(puts up hand) Rin-chan. Please, take a deep breath and explain it to me. It won't help if you keep stuttering.
Rin-chan goes on to explain, the events of the night that had transpired before Ichika set out to Seito. So, I should sum up things. First off, it's starts with a promise made when the two were still kids. Then him not remembering the actual meaning behind the promise and not following up on it. After she finishes with the explanation I feeling of my calling Ichika a Meathead. Is not meaningless. Though I myself have a few things to say to Her.
Sento:(puts hands together) So you feel, that Banjou-kun should apologise?
Rin:(nods) Yes! That's exactly it! Yet he's been avoiding me.
Sento:(raises eyebrow) Wait, but you said earlier that you were intentionally ignoring him. Yet, you now say he's ignoring you?
"…" Rin goes silent. Sigh~ Teenagers. I straighten myself out. I need to make this clear. I may be wrong in my assumptions, but Ichika is in a rock and a hard place right now. It would be better for all of him and my health that I straighten this out before it becomes crooked.
"Rin-chan. I think the problem is that you need to understand other people's special situations." Rin-chan pirks up and listens.
Rin:(stands up) What do you mean?! I understand other people's situations! Ichika was in a murder incident, but he's no longer being considered a prime suspect!
Sento:(sighs) So that is the extent of your understanding? Have you heard anything about me?
Rin:(raises eyebrow) What? What do you mean? You're a counselor.
Very assumptious this girl is. Altho to be fair, she has lived in China for quite a bit of her life. So her limited about of current news in Touto is understandable. Nothing I can blame her for.
"I was stationed here by the Touto government to keep an eye on Ichika." This shocks Rin-chan.
"What?! I thought he wasn't a prime suspect anymore!" Thus is the uncertainty of this case.
Sento:(Nods) Yes, but Touto… More Gentoku-san and part of Touto's public, aren't quick to write him off, there's also that detail that he's the only male pilot in the world? Plus that certain item that shock the world when it caused a giant wall to appear.
Rin:(ralization) The Pandora's Box.
"Correct." Rin-chan sits down, her mind process all the information presented to her.
"Ichika has so much on his plate. Dealing with the Government, public, and stress of being the only male pilot… But I'm sure he should at least apologise..." I don't think he has forgotten about Kasumi-chan either. I can still tell that she still weighs heavy on his mind. Rin-chan takes a deep breath and exhales.
"Thank you, Kiryu-sensei. I'll go say sorry to him. I guess..." She bows and I smiles and return the bow.
Sento:(smiles) I hope this will helps you mend the bridge between you and Banjou-kun.
Rin:(heads to door) Yeah… I'll try my best. Thank you.
With that she leaves the room. I turn back to my papers. All I need to do now is to bring these to the teacher's lounge. Putting the papers together, I exit my room and head towards the lounge.
"Ah! Kiryu-sensei!" Up comes Ichijo-sensei from the side surprising me.
"Wha~ Ichijo-sensei, don't surprise me like that. I almost dropped my papers!" Ichijo-sensei gives a apologetic chuckle. Ichijo Hanasaki is one of the three art teachers here. He's 6 foot 4 inches, he has brown hair, green eyes, and a light blue suit.
Ichijo: Sorry, I was going to the Teacher's Lounge. I assume it's the same with you.
Sento:(chuckles) Yes, well. I'm sure you're eyes can see that I'm carrying a sizeable amount of papers. Must be easy, all you have to deal with is the students handing you art.
Ichijo:(smiles) Indeed, that is true. But being an art teacher has its own fair share of problems. Teaching the children to look at the idea of art at all angles and coming up with a proper strategy is hard. It's like a game with students.
Sento:(nods) I suppose. Ah, hey. Isn't the Moc tournaments coming up?
Ichijo:(turns to Sento) Yes. Don't you- Oh right, I forgot that you fell ill couple of days ago.
What?... Ah, right. When I was poisoned by that Cobra guy.
"Yes, but I'm feeling much better. Ah- Mind opening the door?" Ichijo opens the door and we enter the Teachers lounge. Speaking of that Cobra guy, what kind of tech did he use to super charge Nabeshima? I had been so busy with work as of recent and the knowledge of new bottles I didn't have time to theorise…
Chifuyu:(walks up) Sento. Can I talk to you in private?
Sento:(nods) Sure. Well, if you will excuse me. IS stuff and all that.
Ichijo:(puts up hand) Ah, that's not part of my pay grade. I just do art after all.
I follow Chifuyu to the staff elevator. We enter and with a swipe of Staff card, we gain access to the lower levels of the school. Here is where more tip top secretive stuff happens. As we go down to these levels Chifuyu sends me a file. Hmm, curious.
"What's this about?" I ask opening the folder. Lots of files in here.
"Take a look." The folder is a data compile of a stolen IS. The IS was listed as one of America's experimental laser IS. There's also mention of a possible Build Tech in its design?!
Sento:(uphaled) Build Tech?! How? How did the US acquire Build tech?!
Chifuyu:(shrugs) We don't know. Judging by its limited usage in its design, Tabane theories that the tech was stolen during the early years of Katsuragi Takumi's research. Back before his leaving from his position in Touto's top researcher of Pandora's box.
Sento: But still, judging from it's usage… It would be used to power the Laser and Shields of the Suit. Everything else would be used for the thrusters and nothing else. It would properly work if they had the usage of two bottles.
"Yes, that's my worry. Who ever stole the suit would know how to use it." So this is why she brought me in on this. As an expert of the Build Tech, I need to know this to have preparations. Exiting out of the elevator we head down a corridor towards the planning room.
"I want your opinion, do you think our thief have bottles?" Chifuyu asks. I ponder for a moment, and as we enter the planning room, I come up with a theory.
Sento: Considering that, Pandora's box seems to have multiple layers, it's possible that there would be more than 20 bottles. If my theory is really true, then the IS will arrive with two bottles inside…. Let's just hope that this theory is wrong.
Meanwhile… We are Observer
A woman enters the IS Bay. The Stolen IS sits in the bay, it's chest cavity open wide. The cavity has two holders for bottles. From the shadows Stark appears from red smoke.
"Ah. Stark, nice of you to join me. Thank you again for giving us this information on this Unique IS." The woman says walking over to the mech and caressing it's hull. Stark chuckles, as he looks at the IS.
Stark:(chuckles) My info has made for a wonderful target.
Woman:(turns to Stark) I thank you again for your technology and information Stark. Send Faust my regards. I assume the IS academy once again?
Stark:(nods) Indeed. Last time it gave us, great information that our new mobile way of creating Smash, when compared to manual creation in a lab.
Woman:(walks towards different table) Indeed. If this experiment goes as expected, then our possibility of improving our military.(turns to corner) Ah. Apologies, the success should also be attributed to you. Both you and Faust have been wonderful. Your ability to both "acquire" high value technology and information should be commended. As promised you will gain access to our current Pandora information.
?: Many thanks. Phantom Task will continue to grant you results.
Woman:(grabs bottles) All that's left is adding the final component. The bottles.
Stark:(Turns to woman) I assume you already have two bottles chosen?
The Woman walks to the IS. In her hands are two bottles, one colored a crimson red, and the other colored forged iron grey. The crimson bottle has a Phoenix molded into body, and the Iron bottle has a Robot molded into the body.
"Ooh. Phoenix and Robot, good combo." Stark says as the woman hands him the bottles.
"It's only fair, think of it as… Sealing the deal between the three of us." Stark takes the bottles and walks up to the IS. Stark gives a shake to the two bottles and places them into the IS. Stark backs up as the cavity closes and the suit activates. It's shields activate, and weapons power up.
?: If I may, would it be much trouble for us to try out the weapon systems?
Woman:(smiles) Of course.
The figure connects to the IS. The IS lifts up it massive cannon arm and takes aim. The laser that is fired from the cannon blasts clean though the wall and into the wild life outside.
"Heheheheheheh… This experiment is already looking to be beneficial."
