Chapter 18: Captured!: Cameron's unbreakable will!
After about the third day of the sounds they finally figured out I was sleeping through the whole thing and as such began to give me hard shocks every 15 seconds at around 2,000 volts per, lets just say that it hurt like a bitch and leave it at that. Iroha was now using my sheet as clothing. I planning on escape soon though so I need to ask her what her sound system could do.
"Iroha, what exactly can your sound system do?"
"Right now its worthless, all it can do is be used as a weapon or gravitron system."
"Gravitron?"
"I can fly with it." She replied, in my mind I was already concocting a plan, if I could get her to blow out an exterior wall, such as this one, she might be able to fly us out of here or at least a controlled glide until we hit the ground at which case we would need to run like mad. It wasn't perfect and it was full of holes but I didn't need a perfect plan just something to get signal to my cell phone, which they had overlooked in their body search I guess… wait, cell phone! I rushed over to the window and shoved my phone in it, sadly there was still no signal. "Damn it, ok then Iroha how do you feel about escaping this forsaken hell hole say… tonight?"
"Come again? Leave here, me? I can't leave here, the director still doesn't know I'm alive!"
"The director is evil I tell you evil!" I said, she shook her head no.
"I still don't see why you are insisting that he is evil. He has done nothing wrong."
"I am here against my will and be subjected to all kinds of torture and that doesn't classify as doing something wrong?" I yelled throwing my hands in the air in frustration.
"Pervert, please don't shut me out like this. You're the first person to show me any kindness."
"I am not a pervert! Also isn't this the first time you've been activated?"
"No, the first time was with all the others but the director deemed me unnecessary so he had me shut down and stripped for parts."
"That lying bastard knew exactly what was wrong with you then." I said clenching my fist. I walked over to Iroha and took hold of her hands, her speakers folded back so that her hands were exposed. "Iroha, I want you to show the director that your alive again, let's see what happens."
"Why?"
"Because I want to know how it is that you, a Vocaloid who never worked to begin with is running now?" The director said walking into my cell.
"Who are you?" Iroha asked, "You have the Directors level access but you are not the director that started the Possessor Project." Her speakers encased her hands and the floating ones also aimed at the director, he laughed.
"I don't know how you managed to activate this one boy but it's all over for the both of you. I can't have smart people trying to break out of my prison." He signaled to the two guards that had come with him. "Take care of them and then dump them in the ocean." He said, turning around and walking out, the door closed behind him. The guards looked the two of us over.
"Deal with him, then have some fun with her?"
"Ya." I snarled, if there was one thing I couldn't stand it was rapists. They leveled their weapons with my head, but didn't have to pull the triggers before Iroha had blown them through the wall with sound waves. I walked through the hole and pulled out the Enforcer.
"Die you bastards!" I growled before stabbing them both through the heart. "Now do you believe me when I say he is evil?"
"Yes, it's time to leave." She said, I shook my head.
"No, there is some stuff I need to get first. I can't leave a single copy of the copyrights in their hands." She nodded and we both turned and ran out of the prison block. "Do you know your way around?"
"But of course, this is where I was built, it's also where Vocaloids are supposed to spend their first six months, the only exceptions having been Miku, who was shipped out unactivated, and me, who was shut down." She said.
"Can you get me to the room that holds the copyrights." I asked, she nodded and turned left and we went down a long hallway and entered an old room that had rows and rows of filing cabinets. "Alright, I already should have a copy of every copyright but lets go ahead and double check, Iroha, can you get into the computer and find the electronic copyrights?"
"Sure." She responded walking over to the computer and turning it on. I went and started looking through the filing cabinets, I went through the first two and didn't find any new ones but knew there might be one somewhere so I kept looking. After a while I found Iroha's copyrights, taking them I folded them up and put them in my pocket. After going through the last filing cabinet I walked over and looked through the copyrights on the computer, nothing new there.
"Ok I have everything, we need to blow this place up, anything in the complex that can do that?"
"Well there is one thing… but the likelyhood of it working is slim to none."
"And that would be?"
"Well they are apparently developing some kind of experimental combative exosuit, however you need someone inside it to power up and then you have to reflect its own attack back at it to do any damage to it."
"But if it were to be powered up and such and its attack were reflected back at it?"
"It would blow up."
"Alright, now all we need to do is get one of those idiots to power it up so we can blow it up."
"Yeah and then get out before the massive wall of fire get us."
"Hmmm, can we try getting it into an outer hallway, where you would be able to blow a hole in the wall we blow it up and then jump?"
"Yes that would make sense to only problem is moving it out there."
"If we get it to chase us that shouldn't be a problem." I said as we exited the room. I turned and looked forward, the hallway was full of guards, all aiming at us. "Well, shit."
"I got this." Iroha said calmly, lifting up her arms and pointing her speakers at the crowd. "Cover your ears." She whispered to me before firing off a soundwave that caused all the guards to seize up a little then drop dead. She and I took off running. I stopped, grabbed a pistol and as many spare clips as I could and took off again. After a while of running we were greeted by a mechanical whirring sound. I peeked around the corner to see the Director issuing orders from inside a robot suit.
"Don't let them escape with what they have."
"Yes sir!" the troops replied, I ducked back around the corner.
"Is this an exterior wall?"
"Yes, should I blast through?"
"No, not yet. What is the base for that suits attacks?"
"For the most part high voltage electrical shocks."
"So something like say… the Enforcer here would be able to redirect it?"
"Hypothetically but the odds of that are about a hundred to one."
"Better than nothing. Alright go ahead and make us an exit." I said, she nodded blowing out the wall, this of course brought the whole base running, I pulled out my newly acquired pistol and Iroha put her hands up in front of her, both her speakers locking in place over them.
"Surrender now, foolish boy! You can't fight me I am GOD!" The director said
"No what you are is insane." He growled at me and the troops all raised there weapons, only to be knocked away by Iroha's soundwaves. I stood strong and tall, for some reason unaffected by the sounds. The director gritted his teeth and clasped the robots hands together. "Iroha, go." I said, the director began charging his attack.
"But what about you?"
"I'll be right behind you. Now go." I said, using my command voice.
"Yes sir!" She snapped and jumped out the hole. I laughed, she had called me sir, I love my command voice.
"Turn and face me I want to see the look on your face when you die." The director said, I complied, turning to face him. He fired the electrical bolt. I flipped the Enforcer into the air, grabbing it by the blade and throwing it at the oncoming attack, as soon as the metal passed the electricity, the whole attack curved and hit the knife, which being made of metal, absorbed it and continued spinning until it stabbed into the directors suit. "Impossible I was beaten by a child."
"No you were beaten by Omega-2, Team sniper and tactician, as well as lead guitarist." I said before his suit exploded, I dived out of the hole in the wall only to realize that I was about 400 or so feet in the air. "Damn it." I said, closing my eyes and waiting for the end to come. It never did I opened my eyes to see Iroha holding me.
"So not only are you a pervert but your also heavy." She said as we landed atop the cliff on the opposite side of the cove/bay area that the hideout was located. I turned and looking back at the exploding base saluted.
"Farewell Enforcer, you have served me well." I said, dropping my salute and turning around as I was walking away I hear a whistling sound I dived, knocking Iroha to the ground and getting a very good view in the process, and where I had been standing not 20 seconds earlier was the enforcer buried about three inches deep into the ground. "Well what do ya know, my knife is even more badass than I am." I said reaching down and picking it, placed it back in its rightful place, strapped to my left thigh. I pulled out my phone and turned it on. Luckily it still had some juice. "Hey Mack, this is Cameron I'm just calling to tell you that I just escaped from an underground lair of crazty people can you come and pick me up."
"You really shouldn't waste your minutes." Came an all to familiar voice from behind me. I turned to see Mack standing there, smiling like an idiot.
