Reaper: I got a new idea for this rukato fic. If you ever seen the music video for "Monster" by Skillet, you might get the idea. And it's kinda like, just slightly, an X-man crossover, if you squint.

Jaden: I've heard that song, Alexis almost blew out my ears playing it. And I only know of Wolverine from that.

Takato: Why do I have a bad feeling that I'm going to get screwed over in this story.

Reaper: That might be because you are...AND QUE THE TELEPORTER! ACTIVATE! Jaden, remind me to get you a booster set later for your help.

Jaden: No prob man. Where did you send Takato anyway?

Reaper: The story, and that knocking is really annoying me, mind going out to check it?

Jaden: Sure.(Walks outside through the front door, two seconds later a bloodcurling scream was heard.)

Reaper: Alright then! On with the chapter and I own nothing!(Grabs a FAL and runs outside.)

Project Hypnos

Mitsuo Yamaki sat in his living room, looking over some classifed files that weren't even supposed to exisit. He was currently working at the Shinjuku Government building on a secret 'Genitic Research Project'. He was trying to get what the Americans called the 'Super Soldier Serum' to work on mutants.

You see, while Japan had it's fair share of mutants like the rest of the world, they were one of the few that accepted them and hadn't tried to persecute or harm them. Yamaki himself was a mutant and he knew first hand that many mutants were law abiding people that happened to help out whenever someone needed them. Mutants would help out on natural disasters and a number of many other situations. Don't get him wrong, there were people that didn't like them but for the most part, Japanese Mutants were tolerated.

But tensions around the world were getting worse in some places and many countries were trying to find ways to keep themselves on the best of military tech. The Americans had Captain America back in WWII but that formula was lost many decades ago along with the Captain. Canada had tried with their 'Weapon X' program and that did result in a mutant called Wolverine but he had left and was currently helping out his friend Charles Xavier in a school.

That's where Yamaki came in. He created a program that would enchance the power of mutants and would make them offical government officals to respond to emergancies. At least thats how it started. Now the Chairman of Defense(I don't know what the head of Japan's military is called so we'll with this until someone can tell me the actual name.) had run amock with his project and taken it as his own plan. He wanted to created a private army to overthrow the current Government and put himself in power. He had fired him in order to eliminate Yamaki as a threat to his plan.

But Yamaki wasn't going down without a fight. Before he was fired and thrown out of the building, he was able to smuggle out some profiles to see who they would be testing on. And they had moved up the testing to tonight and he need to devise a plan in a few hours.

'Well, Takato Matsuki and Rika Nonaka, lets' hope it won't be to late.' He thought to himself.

Takato did remember where he was. All he could remember was that he was called up some agents to come and do an interview.

"Hurry, the medication is starting to fade. Hit him with a higher dose so we can continue." A voice that barely made it into Takato's hazy mind said. And with that, the 17 year old started to panic. 'What! What's going on! I need to get out of here!' And with that Takato struggled to get out of the medical table he was strapped to. And in no time at all he was out and quickly looking for a way out.

"Go! We need to finish the procedure. He's not loyal yet!" The same scientist that spoke before yelled, pointing at the teenager. Paniced, Takato did the first thing that came to mind and punched the first person that tried to restrain him. That worker was then hurled into the next wall, which spider cracked. Too much into his own survival, Takato contiued to knock out the rest of the scientists and workers.

"How did I do that? My powers used to only be the claws and heightened senses. I wasn't this strong." Takato asked out loud. Then he heard a static noise in a computer monitor on the desk.

"Nice to see that your awake now Mr. Matsuki." Yamaki's face appeared on the monitor. Takato looked at the screen confused and shocked.

"Um...how are you exactly?" Takato asked, still trying to figure out a way out of the building.

"My name is Yamaki. Listen, there is another person in there that went through the same thing as you. I was able to knock out the power before they got to the mental conditioning on the both of you. Now it's up to you two to find away out. And be careful, the security gaurds are on high alert. The other test room is up two floors in the east side to the building. Hurry." Yamaki told him, the monitor going black.

"Well, that makes things more interesting. I wonder who else the 'captured'. Oh well, might as well get moving." Takato shrugged, lining up a shot to the reinforced door. He took off at a run and easily ran through the door. Now only mildly shocked, Takato looked to find a stairwell, jogging down the hallway to the eastside. Of course, he would meet resistance along the away.

"Hey you there! Stop!" the point man of five armed guards shouted, already leveling their guns at Takato. A rage built up in Takato, seeing that they didn't really regard him and were ready to just shoot him. That rage built up so fast, Takato had no choice but to open his mouth and let it out, in the form of a (engery-like) fireball.

"What the hell!" a guard yelled, as the fireball impacted the front man and the resulting explosion knocked them all back into the wall. Takato simply kept running past them and into the stairwell, climbing up two and three stairs at a time. That is, until he saw that the stairs ended on the next floor and he would have to fight through this floor too.

"Why can't they ever make it easy to escape when you want to?" Takato asked himself. He kept up his pace as he raced towards the west side of the building. Fighting more guards along the way.

'Ugh...what hit me?' Rika asked herself, coming to her senses. She looked around the room she was in and saw that it looked like kinda like a hospital room, but with a lot more computers. And that there were a lot of wires and IVs stuck in her. She quickly tore them off in panic and a pain washed over her and then left like it nevered happened.

'What the...? My powers aren't that strong are they?' She looked at her arms and saw that the skin was unblemished, even though she had plenty of IVs in her. She distinctly remembered her powers only allowed her to teleport short distances, disappear and move slightly faster. She never could regenerate after being injuried. Of course, someone had to interrupt her musings.

"Well, good to see that the second one has woken up. The first one is already on his way." Yamaki said, again from a computer monitor. Rika's head snapped to his direction, wondering what the hell was going on.

"What the...? Who are you and what are you talking about? What 'first on his way'?" Rika demanded, wanting her questions answered.

"My name is Yamaki, to answer your first question. And you are the second person that the scientist had 'experimented' on. But relax, I was able to stop them from completley messing you up," Yamaki told her, seeing her reaction to 'experiment' and continued, "As to the second question, the first person already broke free and is coming up here to help you escape as well."

"Hmph. I don't need anyone's help in escaping. But why are you telling me this?" Rika responded. Yamaki simply smirked at her.

"Simple, even you will need help in escaping from that building. Listen, you must make it to the top of the structure and then teleport the the two of you out of range of the building's guards. And even you can't fight a small army of them. The only chance either of you have of making it out is if you two work together to get out. And if I'm correct, he's outside the door right now. Good night now." Yamaki finished, the monitor again going black. Rika turned around and saw that a brown-haired boy about her age was standing in the door way looking a little winded.

'Hm...this won't end well, will it?' was the thoughts going through both their minds at the moment the saw each other.

*End Chapter*

Reaper: Well, I figured out what attacked Jaden. Looks like the zombies from Shi No Numa were still around and were a tad hungry. Jaden will be fine in a little bit. Also, All four in One should be updated sometime relatively soon. Though I make no promises.

Review make people happy and might make the updates go faster.

Thank you and have a nice day,
The Reaper.
