Chapter 2: scouting the city
The city of Shinto Teito was one that was always busy even on a dark murky rainy day like this the city was bustling with activity. Adults going to and fro about their workplaces, teens milling about their various hangouts, clubs thumping with music as the parties raged inside…it was just another typical day in the capital. But one thing that was catching everyone's eye was a black blur moving at high speeds. if anyone could get a clear look at the blur they would see a 19 year old teen using what appeared to be rocket skates. He blew past everyone he passed even the cars moving as fast as the speed limit leaving them all wondering what he was how he was able to move at such speeds. Not even the police were able to catch up with him. Every time they got near him he seemed to speed up and leave them in the dust. As he sped in and out of traffic he turned to look back at the police tailing him…or at least trying to.
"I'm in this world for less than ten minutes and I already have the police after me. And for what? being this fast on my feet? Tch! Humans….oh wait….I'm one of them now..." He muttered bitterly.
He wasn't moving anywhere as fast as that spiky blue idiot who always had a way of ticking him off but he was still moving pretty quick thanks to the combination of his powerful body and his air shoes. He estimated he was currently traveling 25 miles per hour now that he seemed to have ditched the police and slowed down somewhat as he made his way into an empty intersection he was suddenly cut off by several cop cars blocking his way.
"I'm getting tired of this...CHAOS CONTROL!" He shouted before disappearing in a flash of light.
The shocked officers stepped out of their vehicles and approached the spot where he had vanished. The sergeant ordered a quick sweep of the area to try and find him but came up empty handed. Sergeant Tanaka gritted his teeth never in his 15 years as an officer of the law he had never seen anything like this. One minute they were chasing what appeared to be someone running at high speeds not possible for a human and then what they cut him off he vanished in a flash of light with no trace as to where he went at all. Was someone pulling a prank on him? Just what the hell was going on here?
"Sergeant we've done a complete search of the surrounding area and we haven't found any trace of who or whatever that was." One of the junior officers reported. Tanaka frowned.
"Have you checked all the buildings interiors?" the sergeant asked.
"Yes sir but there is absolutely no sign of him anywhere!" the junior replied.
Tanaka brought his hand up to his head and gave a frustrated sigh. This was getting more confusing every minute
"Maybe that was some kind of kind of top secret government project or a biological weapon prototype weapon created by MBI or-I don't want to hear any of those ridiculous conspiracy theories your always coming up with Hotomi unless you can provide me with a real answer then stow it!" the sergeant snapped at the junior cutting him off. Hotomi sighed at his theories being ignored once again.
"Yes sir...should we put a look out on for whoever or whatever that was? The junior asked. Tanaka shook his head.
"No...he was going too fast for anyone to get a good description of him it would be useless. Just have everyone head back to the station there's no point in us sticking around here anymore." The sergeant told him.
Making the junior nod and rush off. Tanaka scowled it seems a lot of strange things were happening lately with that pharmaceutical company that seemingly gained massive power over night, then there was those three women in strange clothes roaming around the city (the grey haired one with the pony tail creeped him out the most for some reason), and now this….
"I'm getting to old for this shit..." Tanaka muttered as he returned to his vehicle.
While the officers scrambled to find to find the mysterious figure it never occurred to them he was watching them with an annoyed look from atop one of the nearby sky scrapers. Shadow stared down at the officers as they began to leave and let an irritated growl. Police always had a habit of making things difficult for the former hedgehog even after he became an agent for G.U.N. they were always making his objectives difficult by thinking they were better than him. Speaking of objectives Shadow was brought back to the reason he was hear in the first place. He needed to get to work and to do that he needed a general idea of what he was doing. Using his powers of teleportation Shadow did a scan of the city looking for anything that might give him any clues as well as stealing a small laptop from a computer store.
After a few hours he sat down to rest on one of the sky scrapers roof. He hadn't found anything that pertained to this "plan" but there was one thing that caught his eye: a good number of buildings in the city were owned by a corporation called MBI and by the looks of it they were buying out more of the city's buildings… the red eyed teens gut told him that something wasn't right about this. He quickly opened up the laptop and searched MBI. According to one of the info sites MBI which stood for Mid Bio Informatics was a pharmaceutical company that had gotten very powerful very fast. They had made great strides in the fields of medical technology and sciences and had created cures for several once thought incurable diseases.
In a couple of years they had become the most successful business in world history. But the part that was disturbing was in some recent news articles. Apparently the company had bought up at least a quarter of the city's stocks. This meant they owned a quarter of the buildings in the city and it looks like they were now attempting to buy more of them. If this continued it would only be a matter of time before they owned the whole city which was very ominous in Shadows eyes. Right now they weren't doing anything harmful or illegal but something in his gut told him to be wary of them. Filing the information away for later thought he then did a search on the word Sekirei. Apparently it was Japanese for 'wagtail' a type of bird.
"Birds? What do birds have to do with this?" the now human ultimate lifeform thought.
He had expected something like some kind of…well he actually didn't have any idea of what to expect but it certainly wasn't birds! Then again perhaps this Sekirei plan was to create some kind of new bird flu virus he had heard so much back on his world one that could infect humans but if that were the case then why would this Takehito guy want them freed? Wouldn't that spread the virus everywhere? Another possibility was that it was code for some kind of new breed of soldier created by illegal experiments on unwilling participants. After doing some more online searching for 'Sekirei' and 'Sekirei Plan'…There was nothing. Whatever this was it was obviously top secret. A clap of thunder broke him out of his thoughts. Looking up he saw lightning streaking across the sky and rain beginning to come down hard.
"Damn Just my luck." He muttered as he packed up the computer before teleporting down into the streets. The rain was now coming down in sheets and sound thunder boomed across the city.
"I need to find some shelter. This storm looks like it's going to get worse" he thought as he ran down the street trying to escape the pouring rain.
After several minutes he slowed down to duck into an alley where there was some shade from the storm. After a few minutes Shadow looked around his surroundings to see what there was. It wasn't much just a few trash cans, a dumpster and what appeared to be a trap door...wait a trap door?! He quickly stood up and ran over to it. Kneeling down to inspect it he found that it was indeed a door leading to somewhere underground. Breaking the lock he opened the door and stepped down the stairs into where ever they led to pulling out the handgun he stole from a cop while scanning the city he prepared for any threats he might encounter as he stepped into the darkness. Feeling around the wall he found a light switch flicking it on he found himself in a large bunker that looked like it was designed for a nuclear war there was plenty of room and several other rooms in the underground lair. Shadow smirked. it seemed lady luck was smiling down on him today.
"Well I guess I should make this my base of operations...I have a feeling that I'm gonna be in this world for a while..."
