Construct 97: A Hazard Can
We are Sento
My eyes are locked on Chifuyu clasped between my arms. Thoughts rush, as my heart races at hundreds of miles per hour. Chifuyu… I take a hold of her hand, clenching it tight. The IS Mega Mech steps towards me, it's foot shaking the ground under me. My head slowly looks up at the face of the Mech looking down at me. It's single eye glows as it stares as if the face behind it is grinning and reveling in the pain I'm showing.
IS MM: Build~ Better listen up!(points cannon at Build) Less you wanna that bitch, the brats, and this city destroyed! Then fight me!
Build:(clenches fist) A fight?... That's what this is about? A fight?...
Letting go of Chifuyu I softly lay her on the ground before standing up. Glancing up at the mech, a burning feeling welling up in my body. "Fine…" Reaching back I take out the RabbitTank Sparkling and the Hazard Trigger. Flipping the safety shutter I activate the Trigger. "MAX Hazard ON!" Inserting it into my belt "I'll take you on!" I shout shaking the Can before Cracking it open. Removing my previous Bottle pair I raise the Can high up into the air before inserting it into the belt. "RabbitTank Sparkling!" I crank my leaver as the metal plates build up. "Are you Ready?!" "Build up." I mutter as the metal plates close on me.
"OVERFLOW! The Effervescent Burst! Rabbittank Sparkling! Yeah, Yeah~! Yabe~!"
The Suits design is mostly the same as Base RabbitTank Sparkling, with the colors being black and white, with red and blue for the visior. The Shoulders are different with them being more Hazard Shoulders, the pointed bits mixed in with fuzzy electric sharp points. Replacing the old Funnel system is a set of new Funnel pieces. Attached to the arms, shoulders, and back of the suit, the funnels are all blade bits of varying sizes. The bits on the arm are small with a dagger sized blade with the body having a single barrel pointing towards the shoulders. Each arm has 3, on the front and back side of the arm with the third being next to the wrist all pointing out. The shoulders funnels have folded but folded out the blade funnel is the size of a short sword. With two on the front and back of the shoulder pieces totaling four for both shoulders. The back has an extended out part that has a pair of rectangular thrusters. Connected to the backpack with a movable rack are 4 single edged swords with their handles slid into the body of the blade.
We are Observer
IS MM:(Chuckle) Fancy and pointy. Do you enjoy a bit of Sabaton?
Only silence fills the air as Build's mind becomes overwhelmed with a burning feeling that grows every second. Build launches straight at the Mega Mech ramming into the chest. All of the Funnels fold out revealing small thrusters on the funnel body. The thrust is powerful enough to lift the IS Mega Mech into the air. "Well! That thing has some power! This is gonna be fun!~" The Pilot said as she punched Build off.
Build:(stops mid air) Tch… Nebula output to 50%.(arm funnels flip) Rrgh.
IS MM:(aims cannon) I see what you're doing!
Both combatants point their weapons at each other, Build clenches his fingers into claws as electricity pulses between the palms of both hands. A ball of energy forms between the palms and builds up energy. Energy begins to glow from the barrel of the cannon on the Mega Mech's arm. "I'll blow you away!" The Mega Mech pilot shouts, covers on the armor flip up revealing missile pods which all fire towards Build. "Mmh." Build grunts as the funnels on the shoulders and back deploy. The sword funnels fold in half to reveal a barrel, the funnels fly into position and shoot down the missiles with lasers. The air is filled with fire balls as every missile fired at Build is shot down by the Funnels. Both beam weapons finish priming at the same time.
IS MM: Get blown away~!(fires beam)
Build:(blasts beam) Rrrgh!
Both fire their beams, as the two beams crash into each other, the Mega Mech's yellow beam pushes against Build's dark purple beam. Both beams push back and forth against each other. The Mega Mech's Pilot grits her teeth in anger. "Power alone won't win a battle!" The pilot said, as the right hook on the Mega Mech's chest fires out, grabbing Build's foot and pulling it in. Causing Build's beam fire into the air, as the Mega Mech's yellow beam careens towards Build. All funnels detach and immediately form a ring in front of Build and generate a shield. But not in time, the beam hits Build's face causing Build to fall to Earth.
We are Ichika…
My eyes open, the first thing I see is the dark clouds blocking the clear sky. Putting my arm on a concrete rubble, I attempt to push myself up only to feel a sharp pain in my back followed by the concrete slipping. Pain creeps up my body as I look at my surroundings. This is… Oh, right. I was thrown through a wall… "Ichika? Y-You alright?" I hear, looking to my left I see Houki standing up from the rubble.
Ichika:(sitting up) F-Fine… In some pain…(slowly getting up) A lot of pain... You?
Houki:(picking up Jelly) Also in pain, but… No more than our usual…(looking around) Where- Ichika!(points) Look there!
Ichika:(turns to look) Look at wha- Chifuyu?! Nee-san!
The two of us hobble over to her, our arms and legs in pain but not broken. Kneeling down to look at Chifuyu. She's bruised, burned, and battered, but alive. "Her IS's Absolute Defence barrier must have protected her from anything life threatening." Houki surmised looking at the damaged IS suit, which is heavily damaged. "But where's Sen-" I begin to say when the sound of some crashing, pulls our vision to the city behind us. There looming above in the sky is the Mega Mech.
?:(running over) Ichika-kun! Houki-Chan! Are you both alright?!
Ichika:(turns around) Who- Yamada-sensei! What are you doing here?
Maya:(catching breath) Y-yes… I came as soon as I heard the explosions.(looks down) Chifuyu-san!
Houki:(looks at IS MM) Where is Sento? Is he battling the IS Mega Mech?
Maya:(nods) Yes… He is… With the Hazard Trigger.
Ichika and Houki:(looks at Maya) What?!
We both look back at the Mega Mech as it begins launching missiles at Build who is flying towards it. Sensei, please tell me you had a plan for this...
We are Observers…
'I really should have come up with a Plan before jumping in!' Build thinks to himself, but he finds his grip on his mind is beginning to slip. As he flew around the sky, doing maneuvers to dodge the missiles, bullets, and beams being shot at him. The feeling of just charging straight in and tearing the mech apart grows bigger by the second. Build looks at the MM, the chest plate armor opens up followed up by a bright light that flashes the IS MM's cameras. "Aargh! My eyes!" The Pilot screamed as Build dropped out of the sky and into the cover of a building.
Build:(leans against a wall) Uh…(helmet folds away) Phew… So… Hard to think…(removes Hazard Trigger) Ah… Well, my mind is still a little cloudy but… At least I can think now.
Build silently peeks out the building to look at the Mega Mech. "Heavily armed, but to what degree?" Build mutters as his HUD scans the machine. After a few seconds of processing, the data is relayed over the Mega Mech. "So the usual guns, beams, and missiles." Build muttered moving back into the building.
Build:(deep breath) Phew. I need to get back out there before the Pilot begins shooting again. I still need a plan… The Missile pods, I can damage the suit if I hit the missiles before they launch. As for the cannon- No the armor shell looks to be able to withstand a lot. Nevertheless, all the other weapons can be dealt with. But how do I break the joint armor? I need to melt the armor, I could fuse the joints and restrict movement.
The building begins to shake as the Mega Mech begins to walk around. "Where the hell are you Build?!" The Pilot of the Mega Mech screams out. '... Let's hope this break was long enough.' Build mutters inserting the Hazard Trigger back into the Build Driver. Build launches out the front entrance and into the air. "There you are!" The Pilot shouts turning towards Build, the ports opening up revealing the missile pods. Build immediately launches all of his funnels into the missile pods causing them to explode. Pulling back with his funnels returning to him, Build watches the armor parts drop to the ground.
Build:(pulling back) Hmm…
IS MM:(aims cannon) You really thought it would be that Easy?!
Build:(flies up) Reactive Armor?!
Build flies high into the sky with the Mega Mech tracking. 'I can't shake the targeting!' Build thinks to himself trying to make as much distance between him and the laser as possible. "Die!" The pilot screams as she fires the cannon right at Build. Build organises his funnels to make a shield to block the beam. As the barrier forms, a small part of the beam sneaks through before the barrier is fully formed hitting Build's helmet. "R-Rrrrhh..." Build grunts holding back the constant beam.
Elsewhere… England...
Inside the Alcott mansion Cecilia sits at her computer typing away. "Mistress." Chelsea said, placing a cup of tea on the desk. "Thank you." Cecilia said, taking one hand off of her keyboard to pick up the tea cup and take a sip. A pair of footsteps approach the door as Chelsea's sister Exia pushes open the door. "Mistress!" Exia exclaims running over to Cecilia.
Cecilia:(looks up) Exia? I've never seen you so panicked? What's happening?
Exia:(catches breath) M-Mistress, you asked me to keep an eye out on news coming out of japan… Phantom Task has begun an unprovoked attack on Touto!
Cecilia: What? Is this live?(changes taps to view news) *Gasp!*
China…
A plate of hot food is set on the table between two starving workers. The two quickly begin portioning out food to their own plates and dig in. "Ah~ Great as always!" One of the workers bellows as he smiles with joy.
"Eat up, if you're still hungry after that we got more." Rin said with a bright smile to her face. The workers in the room let out a cry of joy.
"Whoa, Whoa, Phantom Task in Japan?!" A worker in a room adjacent to them said out loud. As the words enter Rin's ear she rushes into the other room. There sitting next to a TV with the news going, she sees Build battling the Mega Mech.
"That form… He couldn't have." Rin mutters in disbelief.
Elsewhere…
Deep within a cell, Genming stares up at the bars. The only source of light in the entire cell. He could feel the warmth of the three rays of light beaming down on his face. He has been hearing the bustling outside grow ever louder, it turns his stomach.
"Well, guess some of your pals are still causing chaos out there!" A guard on the other side of the bars behind him said. Without taking a step away from his spot he slightly tilts his head to the side. Before scoffing and walking over to his bed. Laying down and staring at the dark roof overhead.
'I could care less.' Genming thought to himself, turning his body to the side.
Germany…
A pot of tea bubbles as a hand picks up the pot and places it on a heat proof pad. Laura looks up at the cupboard above her. She reaches up with her small frame and opens the cupboard, inside a myriad of different cups of glass, plastic, ceramic, and of different kinds. Grabbing a chair Laura climbs up on the chair to reach a set of ceramic tea cups with small plates that accompanies them.
"Laura dear! Come quick!" Laura Adopted mother said from the other room. Worried, she quickly climbs down from the chair and places the tea cups and their plates on the warm stone next to the skin.
"Coming!" Laura said, as she stepped into the living room. She glances at the TV and becomes frozen in place at the sight before her. "That's..." Laura mutters, she glances at her adopted father, sitting on the chair next to her. "They have upgraded the Mega Mech since it's last deployment..." The man mutters his wartorn stare looking at the TV screen.
France…
Charlotte is speechless, her hands clasped around a cold glass. Ice shifts and clinks as it bounces against the side of the cup. Charlotte watches the beam engulfing Build, her body leans forwards as if to identify if what she was was true. She could feel her stomach twist in the utter fear of just losing someone. A warm hand clasps Charlotte's right hand, as she looks to the old woman next to her holding her hand. Charlotte with her other open hand sets down the drink and puts both hands together.
We are Observers… Japan...
The beam subsides leaving Build barely holding the shield up. The funnels return onto Build, Build is barely holding himself together without going wild. Build clenches his fists as bends back and twitches. "Rraaagh!" The IS MM flies up and slams his fist against Build sending him careening into the ground. Build crashes into the ground, the dust ball clouds his impact site. Silence fills the air, all eyes around the world go silent. Within the cloud of smoke, a fist clenches, plates lift up across the armor, a purple light begins to vent out of the plates between the armor.
Build:(reels back) Raaaaaah~!
Purple flames jet out of the vents across the armor. Build roars into the sky, his broken helmet showing his right eye beaming out with a purple flair. Build glares at the IS MM, bending down before launching at high speed straight at the IS MM. The MM begins firing a massive hail fire of beams, bullets, and missiles at Build. Build creates a drill barrier in front of him, the drill spirals bouncing the projectiles off and away. Build crashes into the shoulder of the IS MM, the impact tears the shoulder armor to shreds.
IS MM:(grits teeth) Tch! Bastard!
Build:(turning around) WAAAAAR~!
IS MM: AAAAAHH~!
The two forces crash into each other, their impact knocks each other back as they crash into the ground. Build clambers back up to his feet, looking around for the Mega Mech. Elsewhere off in the distance, Ichika and Houki race on a motorcycle towards Build. "We need to get to Sento before he goes too far!" Houki said, leaning to look at Ichika.
Houki:(looks at the bike) How much faster can this thing go?!
Ichika:(passing veichles) As fast as I fucking can!
Houki:(looks at Ichika) Hurry!
Ichika:(nodding) I know, I know!
Back with Build he clambers up to his feet, his feet shakes until he drops onto all fours, as Build lowers his head his broken helmet slips off dropping into the puddle of water under him. The helmet rolls aside as Sento looks at himself in the reflection of the water. Sento stares deeply in the puddle of water. His purple eyes in the reflection of the water, his face dirtied, bruised, and cut up.
Build:(shakes head) Ahh… Rrrhh… Argh… I… Am, I…(clenches fist) I can't… Think… Straight… Need to… Rrggh… Finish this...
IS MM:(lifting up from the rubble) God damn it! It's no wonder giant robots are pointless! This thing just keeps falling apart!
Build:(clenches fist) Ugh… I… Raaah~!
Build slams his fist into the water before standing up. Reaching down to his belt, he activates the Hazard Trigger. "Max Hazard ON!" Build then cranks the belt as the funnels across the suit gather up. "Ready Go!" Build's chest plate opens up, the smallest funnels insert into the chest. "Alright! Fine! Let's end this here!" The IS MM said, raising her damaged right arm cannon. Energy wells into the center of Builds chest as the lights across Builds suit well into the center. The lights across the MM also flow straight into the cannon. The larger funnels create a pair of rings that create an energy ring, while a spiral graph forms between them. "Overflow! Sparkling Finish!" Build lifts and slams his feet as if he were a sumo wrestler, locking his feet in place.
Build:(gritting teeth) Arrgh … It's… Over!(energy ball forms)
IS MM: You're just gonna go Dragon Ball on me?! Fine, Then I'll go Gundam on ya! Hyper Mega Particle Cannon…(beams fires) FIRE!
Build:(eyes glowing as if on fire) Final... Big Bang... KA-ME-HA-ME-(blasts) HAAAAAAAAAAA~!
A pink beam and a dark purple beam fly towards each other before crashing into each other in the center of the city, as the two beams crash against each other. The IS MM pushes Build's beam back for a few seconds before Build's eyes begin to turn crimson as blood begins to pour out of the ducts of his eyes. Sento's eyes begin to slowly shift between colors like an auroria his hair slowly turning bleach white before shifting colors like a rainbow. "G-Grrr… Wraaaah~!" Build's beam suddenly shifts to crimson as the beam becomes larger over taking the IS MM.
IS MM: Aww… Crap~!
The beam engulfs the Mega Mech as the beam flies off into the coast. As the beam fades it leaves a half melted and broken IS Mega Mech, molten metal drips to the ground. A melted hatch drops to the ground as a figure rises up from the chest of the Mega Mech. The figure is female, she drops out of the suit and onto the ground, her face staring up at the sky. The clouds darken as drops of rain fall, Build slowly walks towards the pilot, the rain running down her face, the drops of water turning red as they flow down Build's face.
Ichika:(steps though rubble) Sensei! Ah! Sensei!~
Houki:(running) Sensei!~
Build slowly begins walking towards the pilot, Build's head still facing the ground. With a flick of his wrist, all funnels begin to move only for the funnels to spark out and drop to the ground. Build continues to walk not even noticing the damaged funnels falling off of him, Build stops in front of the pilot as she lifts up her head to look at Build. "W-Well..." She mutters looking at Build's image against the dark sky.
Pilot: W-We look like shi-t h-Huh?(coughs) So… I assume this is where I die?(hand grabs throat) *Aarh*
Ichika:(running over rubble) Sensei!~ Don't! STOP~!
Houki:(running) Sensei~!
Build clenches his fist as a beam blade appears from his gauntlet. Just then, the armor across the suit locks up. Build looks at his armor as Ichika comes up from behind and grabs Build. "Houki! The Trigger!" Ichika exclaims as Houki runs to the other side of the suit and pulls the Hazard Trigger out, the armor unlocks as the whole suit fades away into the air. The Pilot splashes onto the ground as Sento falls into Houki's arms.
Ichika and Houki: Sensei! Sensei~!
Sento:(blood dripping from head) Tha-Thank… you…
Pilot:(gasping for air) *Cough* *Cough*
Ichika:(glances at pilot) What should we do with her?
Houki:(looks at Ichika) Forget her, we need to get Sento to the hospital! Get to the bike.
Ichika:(grabs Sento) In that case, I'll carry Sensei, I'm stronger. You get the bike ready.
The two take Sento's passed out body back to the bike leaving the pilot alone by the wreckage, the molten metal armor hardening in the cold wash of the rain above. A figure runs over to the pilot. "S-Squall..." The pilot mutters looking up at the woman. "Sigh~ You are lucky to be alive… Come on." Squall said, helping the Pilot up and the two leave. The pilot's helmet falls off, Autumn's hair dropping out. "Autumn… You are an idiot." Squall mutters with a small smile to her face.
Elsewhere… Faust Facility...
Tabane watches the TV showing the Mega Mech has fallen. She shrugs sitting up. "Oh well, at least the main objective was completed." Tabane stands up and turns off the TV, walking around the table she steps up to the glass. Gazing down into the room below, has two female's being injected with Nebula Gas.
Tabane:(smiles) Funny how you two were the spies… Now, you'll be a tool of war… Ready for when phase 3 begins.
Somewhere else…
Three figures sit in a room in silence, looking at the TV in front of them as it covers the attack. One man sits in a single leather chair, another standing eyes glued on the screen, the last sitting on a couch. One of the men sighs. "Gobara-san? You seem angered?" The female figure asks. "Why wouldn't I? Saiga-san? Fools like this. Can you believe it, Ino-san?" Gobara said, looking at Ino sitting in the back of the room.
Ino:(stares at the screen) Yes, it is foolish. I don't see how this is related to the plan at all.
Saiga:(leans back against the couch) I doubt that was on Stalk's part. These humans… They can surprise us sometimes.
Gobara:(nods) The Rider system being an example.(looks at Ino) Still. Is Stalk still dragging hi- her feet on this?
Ino:(looks down) You know the exact reason why that is. She refuses to go through with this plan without, "That" component.
Saiga:(looks at Ino) They still can't find her damn belt? These humans are surprisingly good at hiding things aren't they?
Ino:(stands up) Yes, but we cannot wait any longer. We have an alternative plan and we must prepare, so long as She has a baited interest in these Humans, we waste time. If she will not enact the plan, then we of the Blood tribe will.
The eyes of all three begin to glow.
