In a secluded location/Cass's Laboratory
Cass and BJ were standing outside in front of a giant silver sphere ball.
"You sure that this will work?" Bj asked.
"You doubt my genius?" She asked, looking at him with a serious expression.
"You know that I don't, but I just…"
"BJ I was just kidding, I'm worried about this too, but if what I found out is true then this is our best option." She said. "If anything goes wrong, I'll do my best to get us out of the situation." She added.
"I know, so how do we get it to Hero Works, it's not exactly street legal." BJ said.
"I hope you don't have anything else to do today." She said with a smile. Making him sigh in annoyance
-Meanwhile-
Rose was training with Akira as he learns how to adapt to Excalibur's various abilities. Right now Rose was gracefully dodging Akira's light arrows.
"Doing good on long distance, but let see how you deal with close-up!" She said as she gets close, Akira's bow soon glowed and changed to a double-sided Warhammer with one side being a typical hammer and the other being a war pick., but as he raises it fell back bringing him down to the ground. Akira tried to pick it up straining him, Rose facepalm herself. "Akira I told you, you can't use your Warhammer, its ability makes it nearly impossible to use without your gauntlet." She said.
"Yeah, I know, but unless you can get me another gauntlet, swinging around Gideon around would really slow down my reaction speed." He said.
"Well I don't know, it was hard enough to find that one… wait, Gideon? you named it?" She asked
"Yeah, whenever I play any MMORPG, I like to name my weapons, makes it easier to switch to them when I need it." He explained.
"Well, I guess you have to adapt... Wait I have an idea that just might help, just give me a bit while I get it, take a break."
"Nah, I still want to check out what else I can try." He suggested.
"S-Sure, don't work too hard." She said as she left him, Akira then sighed as he walked up to Excalibur as he grabbed it he changed it back to a sword. He then placed it down and sat in front of it.
"Excalibur, the sword of kings, so far this thing has helped me protect my life and the life of everyone in the Middleburg." He then grabbed it and started to change it. "One of Excalibur's abilities is to change itself to any weapon, and those weapons have its own special ability." He first changed into his lance. "This is the Lance variation, helped me defeat that giant ice ball, its ability Flare, from what Rose told me it is a simple one, it allows me to ignite the tip of my weapon in fire." He said as he changed it to a bow,
"The Bow variation, I call Artemis, it's ability is, Mana Arrows, meaning that I can change the arrow's effects based on what's I can think off as long as I keep it simple." He said he then changes it to Gideon, but as he did it slammed to the ground pinning his hand.
"FFFFFFFF- and then there is this pain, my Warhammer, Gideon. Its ability allows me to create shockwaves and earthquakes with a single slam, but due to that, it's incredibly heavy to carry without my gauntlet. I know that there is more, but I can only change it those three so far, but what I don't get is that why me?" He asked himself.
"Because I chose you." Akira looked back and saw the mysterious man that disappeared into the portal.
"You!" He yelled as he changed Gideon back to Excalibur and started swinging it around trying to him, but he kept dodging all his attempts to hit him.
"Woah, calm down I don't want to fight." He said
"Yeah right after what you did to Lara and the others I don't think so." He said, the man tripped and Akira held the tip of his sword at him. "Any last words?" He asked
"Yeah, I just wanted to ask is this how you treat someone who wants to help you." He asked. Arkia looked at him
"Explain." He said.
"Believe me or not, but my name is Merlin and I'm here to help you out." He said.
"Yeah sure and I'm King Arthur." He said
"In a sense yes you are." He said
"Wait, what?" He asked
"Let me explain, you see Akira there has been this secret…"
"Akira! I got it!" Akira looked over and saw Rose coming in; he then looked back towards Merlin and saw that he was gone.
"Okay, now I know it's not a gauntlet, but it will help, it's called a copy ring, it can mimic anything the gems touch, it will use your mana to…" Rose then noticed the look on his face. "Hey are you okay you seem distraught?" She asked
"Huh, oh n-nothing, just doing some thinking." He said
"Okay, well just put this on." She said as she handed him a silver ring with a black gem embedded in it. As he slips it on the gem turned red.
"Wow... a glorified mood ring… nice." He said
"The color it's only doing that because it matches your affinity." She explained.
"My what?" He asked before she could explain more, Lara came in holding a clipboard.
"Aki, have you seen the…" She then saw Rose and scoffed. "Nevermind I'll look for it myself just come up when you're done." She said as she left.
"What's her problem?" Rose asked
"Rose, you only been around for a while, but you should know my sis is kinda the jealous type, we can be overprotective of each other when it comes to, her words, suspicious people." He said.
"Well you have nothing to worry about, but if it'll make your sister feel better then I'll talk to her about our relationship." She said.
"Thanks, but what will you say about our relationship?" He asked, Rose then went up to him and, making the boy blush, she then blushed as she slid her hand under his shirt, as she got closer, mere inches from his face, Akira was about to indulge in his first kiss, but Rose passed his lip with her finger and gave nip on his neck.
"Gah!" He yelled, Rose then started to suck on his neck, Akria groaned a bit as she started sucking as she lets go, leaving a drool trail.
"N-Not the "first" I was expecting." He said as he held his neck
"Trust me there will be more, but let us wait until you've matured a little more." She said as she helped him up.
"Oh yeah were you going to tell me my magic affinity?" He asked
"Later, let's see what your sister wants." Rose said as they left and went to the lobby.
-Meanwhile In another Dimension-
A hooded figure was walking through town carrying a sack food, the figure then looked and saw injustice, but before they could do anything another hooded figure stopped them.
"We can't draw attention yet, keep calm Sash."
"Fine Penn, but you know I need this get this itch out, either I break some teeth or I break you tonight... again" She said as she walked away. Penn then gulped as he followed his wife.
"Akira Lara, if I survive this mission, you might be getting another sibling." Penn thought as he followed his wife.
Zoryan El Muerto: There is a reason for that which I will get into soon. Really? It seems pretty normal with most siblings. Glad you are enjoying the story so far
HEROS Central: Thank you and I was thinking more Louts Blade from Kim Possible but glad to know my version is on par with her weapon. I will keep the show going.
