Parasite Eve II: Armageddon

The Shelter arc continues as Kyuu and Kyo get to discover more hidden secrets here and that the "catalyst" of the neo Mitochondrial Creatures will be finally be revealed…and this would shock Kyuu in a way he never experienced before…


As Kyuu (disguised as a Neo-ZECT Trooper) was walking within the corridor, two neo-ZECT Troopers passed by him and heard them talking about this place and the conversation he heard would make him uneasy and further tweaked his curiosity about the whole situation.

"…wonder why they called this place "The Shelter"…? This place is huge which connects Shibuya and Shizuoka Island…surely they could have come up with a better name…"

"…at least it fits the place…imagine…creating an army of Artificial NMC which are derived from Kyuu Renjou's DNA that contained his Mitochondrial powers…but then thy needed a source to control those things…"

"Who cares? We're being paid to become foot soldiers…at least those Higher-ups put a leash on them…we won't be harmed as long as we don't betray them to ZECT or the government…"

"Shelter…? My DNA…? They don't mean…I'd better get some clues…what I just heard is making me feel uneasy…I can't believe that Neo-ZECt would do something this horrible…"

As he navigated from corridor to corridor, he found a laboratory room and sneaked inside, seeing that no one is around. There he found notes on a table and read them, and his heart beats faster as emotional shock slowly overtook him as what Yamaki suggested to him earlier was true – someone stole his DNA samples and used them to create advanced version of the Mitochondrial Creatures, and Neo-ZECT is using them for their personal gain, and this would explain why Neo-ZECT have created Artificial NMC's that are also capable of disguising as humans.

"Those bastards…I've got to find a way to relay this to Yamaki and DDS…hope Kyo has better luck than I have…if he were to see this, he'd be very pissed…"

Kyuu continued to walk around until his Parasite powers kicked in, and the Class Q leader stopped, feeling his body throbbed as he sensed a presence quite near him and looked around, and he could sense that presence east of his direction and chose to follow that "Parasite aura" as he felt that it was vague yet recognizable.

Ch. 42: Hinan-sho part 2

Elsewhere, Daigo managed to keep passing Neo-ZECT Troopers from noticing Kyo, who is still disguised as a Neo ZECT Trooper, and both continued to walk, as he spoke to him once there are no other prying ears to suspect them as he gives vital information about this place.

"You're lucky no one suspected you even if you're short. Just keep that poise and you'll be fine. Just keep on following me and you'll be getting the answer you need, and once you have them, I'll lead you to the nearest exit…give what you found to ZECT and DDS…they must be aware of this…"

"Why are you helping me? This doesn't make any sense…"

"One day you'll find out…should either one or both of us survive…and though I'm considered the black sheep of this organization, I was fortunate to be given a limited authority as I faithfully served them…"

As they walked on, they came across the center of the base, and Daigo told the younger Renjou what this place is and why this base is called the "Shelter", as the Class R leader was shocked to see several Neo-Mitochondrial Creatures are locked in specially-designed cells that would prevent them from escaping, and Kyo felt shock, fear and a bit of a nauseous feeling as a prisoner is being fed to one of the mutates.

"What the fuck is this? A zoo?"

"I suppose you could say that…"

"Wait…are you aware of the past six months?"

"Yes, of course…"

"Then how and who maintain these mutates? Mitochondrial Eve's dead…so what I'm seeing is impossible…"

"Surely you forget Eve's counterpart…Y-Chromosomal Adam…his DNA is what they needed…plus a catalyst…"

"Catalyst…wait…you don't mean…?"

A smile formed within Daigo's lips as Kyo tries to guess what the answer is.

"Come with me…I'll show you the answer…then I'll provide you with evidence…"


Meanwhile, Kyuu followed the "aura" he's sensing and this led him to the center of the Shelter, and there he maintained his composure as he passed by Daigo and a disguised Kyo, as the two went to a room, and Kyuu looked around as the "aura" began to fluctuate, losing the signal until he got the trace back, looking at one of the rooms, as the area he is in resembles a huge circle, like a coliseum.


Inside one of the rooms, Daigo told Kyo why Neo-ZECT is created, as Hidenari Oda was filled with greed and wanted to take over the world, and to do this he secretly leaked out vital information on ZECT's equipments and knowledge, and formed this organization with new recruits who also bolted from ZECT. Though he told Kyo he has no idea who is Neo-ZECT's financial backer, he didn't discount the possibility that there may be a mole within ZECT, and with Ryoma Echizen with them, this organization would be a threat to ZECT and the Japanese Parliament.

"What about the so-called Hopper Riders…?"

"I heard that two experimental Zecters are being made, but as to who would use them…that I don't know…but I do heard that Neo-ZECT is planning to create a duplicate of the Kabuto technology, but that's all I can tell you…come…I will show you the catalyst of this creatures…"


By concentrating, Kyuu was able to pinpoint the "parasite aura" he's been sensing and saw a laboratory there, but he waited as he saw a few scientists there and when they left, Kyuu made sure no one else sees him as he entered, and the laboratory is huge as there are several computers there and saw a huge cylinder-like case filled with water, and there he got a surprise of his life: a young girls is inside the stasis tank with an oxygen mask attached along with a helmet-like device. She appeared to resemble a 13-year old girl with blue, shoulder-length hair , and her body is like that of Megumi, as she was naked and her breasts are well-developed for a 13-year old girl. As he went closer, he placed his palm on the surface of the stasis tank, and there he sensed "parasite energy", and came to a shocking deduction.

"This girl…she has the same power as me…and…no…she can't be Eve's reincarnation…what is Neo-ZECT up to…? Is this how the Neo Mitochondrial Creatures came to life? So Yamaki's theory is right…someone stole my DNA to create someone with Parasite powers…poor girl…I'd better set her free and get her out of here…"

Removing his mask, Kyuu slowly jammed the computer's frequencies so that the moment he removed the girl from the tank the alarms won't be set off and as he did so, he puts on the Neo-ZECT uniform on the girl, who remained sedated. He then noticed that a teddy bear is floating inside the tank, and he wondered if this girl was forced to age faster by Neo-ZECT.


Outside, Daigo and Kyo have left a room and is leading the younger Renjou towards the laboratory as he told him that the source of the Neo Mitochondrial Creatures is placed there, and Kyo dreaded that a new Mitochondrial Eve is created and would cause major trouble, but Daigo delivered a "bombshell" that would place the Class R leader to stare in disbelief.

"You need not to worry…she is created by Neo-ZECT…and they made sure she obey their orders…she is subservient to Neo-ZECT's will, thus she cannot rebel nor have the will to do what Mitochondrial Eve does like what she did to the Cult of Illuminites when she finally became pregnant."

"You can't be serious…!"

"I am."

As both entered the lab, they found Kyuu carrying the girl on his back, and both twin brothers are taken by surprise. Daigo nodded seeing that Kyuu is already here and have discovered the catalyst of the Artificial NMCs.

"Nii-san!"

"Kyo…?"

"I see that Y-Chromosomal Adam have found the source. And I see that you managed to get here…"

"Kyo…who's that guy and why is he with you?"

"He helped me sneak my way here and told me about this place…and who's that girl? Can tell despite the Neo-ZECT uniform's she's wearing…I can see her long hair…"

"The one I told you moments ago…the catalyst of the Artificial Neo-Mitochondrial Creatures. That is the new Mitochondrial Eve. Unlike the previous Eve that almost succeeded in destroying humanity…this one has no recollections or memories of Mitochondrial her powers. She is a product created from Satoru Renjou's stolen, preserve sperm, his wife's stolen ovary samples…"

The Renjou brothers stared wide-eyed at what they just heard and Daigo concluded that the experimentation that led to "Eve" being created from their parents' samples, and this made it clear that the girl is Kyuu and Kyo's "sibling". But then Daigo saw a blinking light at the side of the stasis tank and became concerned, realizing what this meant.

"It appeared that you triggered the silent alarm when you removed her from the stasis tank. Try to get out of here while you can. I'll make it appear that I try to stop you so they won't suspect me of anything. There's a corridor that leads to a nearby cave exit within Shizuoka Island."

"Thanks."

"We'll see to it that you'll get exonerated from Neo-ZECT's charges…and we'll try to give you protection should you decided to defect from Neo-ZECT…"

Nodding, Daigo then went to work and made a worked play as Neo-ZECT Troopers arrived and the laboratory door opened and Daigo was "thrown out", with Kyo leading and Kyuu following, with "Eve" straddled on his back as her helmet fell off and the troopers saw who the girl is.

"They're escaping with the girl!"

"Stop them! But don't harm the girl!"

The Neo-ZECT Troopers couldn't open fire as they would risk hitting Eve while a Neo-ZECT Troopers assisted Daigo in getting away from here as Kyo summoned the Stag Beetle Zecter and had it knock down the troopers, and the Renjou brothers are preparing to make a daring escape from the Shelter.

To Be Continued…

What a discovery…Neo-ZECT used a long-preserved sperm and secretly obtain an egg cell from Mrs. Renjou and used them to fuse with Kyu's DNA to create a Renjou "sister" laced with Mitochondria Eve's powers, and now the Renjou brothers are going to escape with the victim in tow.


Preview:

A fight inside the Shelter took place as the Renjou brothers try to escape with Eve in tow, but then they get into a fight with the Hopper Riders. Will they be able to escape?
