Parasite Eve II: Armageddon

George Koizumi gets a chance to redeem himself as he and Tezuka team up to take on a female intruder…but will they be able to deal with this lady in red?


At Tokyo Park, Koizumi showed to him the footage that Hidenari Oda gave him, and Tezuka knew that this was "doctored", and made this points known to Koizumi.

"First off…can't you tell the difference? Kyuu is quite shorter than you, so he should be in the same height as hers, and in this footage it's shown that this Kyuu is taller than her…and look carefully…Kyuu is white-skinned, this one is tanned…and his hair is white…I can't believe you're this color-blind…how can you fall for such a trick? You've been harassing the wrong suspect…and it shows that Neo-ZECT used you all this time…"

"No…this can't be…this can't be…"

"And you should know…both ZECT and Neo-ZECT are targeting him, so get your act straight and find out who really took her…and I'm guessing Neo ZECT is the one who really has her…"

"No…no…no…no…"

At this point, a woman in red dress and a hat slowly walked her way towards the two men, smirking as she cracked her knuckles, and is ready to take an action as she is followed by two other women who appeared to be with her.


The woman, who appeared to be in her early 20's watched as Koizumi was hurling denials at Tezuka, though she didn't care about what they're arguing, and her two female subordinates were eager to initiate the attack but she raised an arm to keep them in place.

"No…allow me to handle this…I'd like to see how strong the Zecters are…and to see if ZECT poses a threat or not…though I have no attachment to Neo-ZECT even though they gave life to me and given me a host body…"

Tezuka heard this and turned towards the woman in red dress as she removed her hat to reveal her face as she gave her hat to her subordinate as he summoned the Wasp Zecter, bracing himself seeing how feral she is as she stared at him.

Kimi ga negau koto nara subete genjitsu ni naru n' darou

Ch. 37: Femme Fatale

"You said you were given life by Neo-ZECT and got a host body even though you are not connected to Neo-ZECT itself? Who are you? Reveal yourself! Unless you want to get hurt by ZECT…now answer me or else!"

"My, my…what an impulsive being you humans are…too bad you'll regret those words…"

The woman then slowly changed and underwent a metamorphosis which revealed her Artificial NMC form, which was somewhat a copy of Mitochondria Eve but was half-grotesque, and Tezuka summoned the Wasp Zecter and attaches it to his Zecter Brace, and initiated the transformation.

"Henshin!"

Wasp Zecter: "HENSHIN…"

In his Masked Form, TheBee then initiated "Cast Off" and assumed Rider Form and activated the "Clock Up" mechanism to beat her by speed, however, she was surprisingly able to move at fast speed and move freely during the Clock Up mechanism and now she is able to match him, and there she shows off her power as she started to land punches and kicks, sending TheBee reeling back.

"Your Clock Up is useless against the pure, raw power of Mitochondria…I can keep up with you…even for 10 seconds…and no matter how many times you use your Clock up…I can catch up with you…so now you're nothing more than a punching bag…"

Koizumi watches the scene, still in a daze at what Tezuka told him, and then recalled his past encounters with Kyuu and Kyo, and he was starting to see the errors of his ways, and as he sees TheBee losing, he was compelled to help him after opening his eyes on the mistakes he made.

"I…was a fool…why did I jump to conclusions…can't worry about that now…"

Summoning the Dragonfly Zecter, Koizumi had it attached to the Dragon Grip to form his gun weapon and spoke to the Zecter's mouthpiece to start the transformation.

"Henshin!"

Dragonfly Zecter: "HENSHIN…"

Now fully armored, Drake initiated his "Cast Off" and is now in Rider Form, and toggled with the Zecter to activate the Rider Shooting, charging his weapon and opened fire, but surprisingly the ANMC parries it with her right forearm and deflected it, and then moved at fast speed to knock him down, and there TheBee got an idea to regain their momentum.

"Quick! Initiated CAST ON! Toggle with your Zecter!"

Following TheBee's instruction, both toggled their Zecters and they returned to their Masked Forms and began to fight her as her two subordinates watches on, wondering if they should step in or not, but then remembered what they were told, and stood still and watched.

"Will the mistress be alright?"

"She'll be fine…look at the two humans…they are now getting desperate…and it looks like they have met their match…it won't be long now…they will soon fall as she is a step ahead of them…she will emerge victorious…"

As TheBee tried to hold her from behind, Drake opened fire at her but she wasn't fazed and managed to brake free, and threw TheBee at Drake, and fired a strong jolt of her psychokinetic blast, sending them colliding against a parked bus, exploding and they were thrown to the ground, and their Zecters detached from its weapons and the two were de-armored, and braced themselves as the ANMC reverted back to its human form, looking down at them.

"So…is this supposed to be the true power of ZECT? I'm disappointed, yet you kept fighting up to the end. I am impressed. For that, I will spare your lives for now. If you seek to challenge me again, train harder and become stronger. You might get the win you needed if you keep on training…and get a stronger weapon if you wish to disable me. I take my leave now. Thank you for entertaining me."

As the woman and her two subordinates left, Tezuka urged Koizumi to use his resources he have to search for Yukari, and left to report to ZECT what he encountered with a female ANMC. Koizumi then decided to return to Neo-ZECT HQ to see if he could learn the truth over Yukari's whereabouts.

"Yukari…please be alive…and be alright…I swear I'll find you…if Neo-ZECT turn out to be the ones who took you…I'll personally apologize to Kyuu Renjou for the past deeds that I've done to him…"

As Koizumi left, Tezuka contacted ZECT HQ to relay his message to either Yamaki or Mishima about what he has discovered, unaware of what is happening at ZECT HQ at the moment, as no one seem to be answering his call.


At Tomoeda, Kyuu sneezed as he while he, Class Q, S and T are still discussing about the blueprints they acquired, and are pondering on showing it to Principal Dan though they were hesitant as they assumed that Neo-ZECT Troopers are probably on the road by then and if they find them at the road it would trigger a gunfight that might put the motorists and pedestrians at risk, so they opted to stay put here at Tomoyo's house.

Then he got a phone call from Hikari Yagami of Class C and the following conversation shocked him the most than the others.

"Kyuu…Daisuke and ken went missing for almost a week, and we have no idea where they are right now! They didn't answer their cellphones as well!"

It didn't took him long to guess who is behind this, and he knew ZECT isn't involved as they are not THAT foolish to go that low.

"Neo-ZECT…"

To Be Continued…
