Across the Threshold: Cold War Prelude 09
As Beo sat in the desk, with Hoot, his eyes catch onto a drawing of a cicada like man. Chuckling, he asked pointing to it, "Who is that?" Hoot turned, seeing what Beo was pointing at and said "Oh that's a long story." "Ok" Matt said entering the room, "I passed a copy of the blueprints towards a colleague of mine to get her two cents and she couldn't make heads or tails of it." "Great, after all the trouble I went through in translating it, your greatest of engineers can't understand Earth Gaian tech?" Beo asked in a rhetorical, mocking manner, much to the ire of Mark and Hoot, "Ah well it looks like-" Suddenly he stopped and sat up straight. "What's wrong?" Matt asked. "I feel that's someone's here," Beo said now more alert, "something's here!"
Heading towards the car, Chase looked behind him to see the two figures behind him. Turning to Katie he whispered before breaking off, "Get the lovebirds back to the main base!" Katie just looked at him and demanded, "Where are you going?" "There's someone following us, I'm getting a better look." Breaking off from the group, he turned around and started to move towards the two followers saying, "Hey! What are you looking at?" The duo stopped in their tracks and started to walk back inside. Chase then walked back to the group saying "Probably nothing." Suddenly he noticed a winged shadow appear behind Katie. "LOOK OUT!" Chase exclaimed, causing Katie to turn around, only to be kicked aside by a white robed figure with an elf like appearance and a large duck like man.. The elf was replaced by a more humaniod female figure with two spikes emerging from her back while the large duck was replaced by a hulking armored birdlike figure with a large sword. "Oh (censored)! Voidmond run!" Twin Drake barked revealing his metamorpher. "What!?" Voidmond said but Katie noticing the metamorpher, yelled out "Chase, it's one of the knights!" Chase, seeing this transformed with in a loud shout "FORM CHANGE!"before charging at Twin Drake. Twin Drake yelled out, "METAMORPH!" transforming into his armored form and Jumped into the air. "NULL 03," The female figure said, "Rox! Get him!" The large figure leaped at Twin Drake who just flew up and fired upon the female figure with his spitfires. The figure dodged the gun fire and landed besides the large figure, Rox. Chase glared at the humonculi as he grabbed Voidmond and was flying away. Swiping the card a droning sound was heard in the air. "What was-?" Voidmond said before Chase's repaired shuttle slammed into Twin Drake, sending the two falling on their backs. Katie then transformed and tried to move towards Twin Drake only to be blocked off by the female figure. The figure pulled out a large machete like sword and pointed it at Katie saying "Back off, this is our property!" "What!?" Katie started but the figure slashed at the catira before dashing towards Twin Drake as well. Twin Drake then pulled out two chips and inserted them into his spitfires. As Rox and Chase closed the distance, Twin Drake's spitfires began to glow as the humonculi raised them towards the two bird men. Seeing this, Katie called out, "LOOK out!" The warning was soon drowned out by a loud explosion of purple energy.
Meanwhile,
"So, he's a dragon that eats comets for his laser breath!?" Chipp asked much to his chagrin. "Yep, that's it." Bakore said nodding arms crossed, "If we don't kill him, Light bringers inc will take over the universe!" "That sounds like something out of Ninja Ranger." Wisey commented, more curious than disappointment. "What was that?" Bakore asked, having heard the comment. "Oh it's a show for kids." Chipp answered, "A show?" Bakore asked clearly confused. "It's live action," Wisey "I think that you would like it, well if you didn't-" "We had to do that!" Bakore snapped, "otherwise our backers are going to kill Verdtrus." "Wait hold on! Are these backers the Red Dragon?" Chipp asked. "Yeah, what about it?" Bakore asked. "Why are you working with them in the first place? If you're trying to save the universe, why didn't you come to us in the first place?" Confused, Bakore crossing his arms and asked "Heck, why are you jerks attacking us?" "It's because you were stealing artifacts, colluding with a dangerous group, and caused vast amounts of property damage." Chipp stated, "That is why we confronted you many times." Chipp then pulled out his phone and revealed a picture the plans for G-Zero, and showed it to the homunculus, "Our colleagues had raided your base a few days ago, and had found the blueprints that your leader had stolen,." "They did what!?" Bakore said. "Let me finish!" Chipp said, "One of these blueprints in particular was missing. Do you know what it could be?" "Drake looks into that kind of stuff, not me." "Drake?" Chipp asked. "Yeah, you never heard of names before?" "Of course, but who's Drake?" "Look! If we don't help the Red Dragon army, we won't have a chance at destroying G Zero." "The Red Dragon army is playing you guys like fiddles," Chipp stated "they just want to force all worlds under their chaotic rule and will use vigilantes like you just to do it!" "Bull!" Bakore said, "How about you take your self righteous heroic nonsense and shove it down your throat!" "Fine." Chipp said walking towards the door, "Come on Wisey!" Wisey looked at Bakore for a few seconds with a look of disappointment before following his senior out of the cell.
"Fascinating!" Bartch said as he admired the four figures on the pillar as Q stood hands in his pockets nearby. "This must be the memorial dedicated to the four original Elementals. Are you familiar with them?" "(Not really. Isn't that a fairy tail.)" Bartch, was a bit annoyed by this, but continued "Well, it's no fairy tale. They were the ones who sealed away Encumbra and brought peace throughout the land." "(Yeah but if this armor is so dangerous, then why not destroy the darn thing before it could hurt people?)" Q asked. "I'm not sure," Bartch answered. "I think it could be due to either greed or that they are hard to destroy." Bartch then approached the pillar and stated, "I've heard that this pillar was one of the earliest depictions of the original four since it featured all of the items used for the sealing. Thank you for bringing me here." "(You're welcome, I just thought that you might like it due to it being ancient history. I just focus on what's here and now, not what's in the past.)" "True but however," Bartch interjected, "you can also learn from the past as well." Suddenly their comms beeped. "Hello?" "Bartch is it? Do you have Chipp with you?" Chipp asked through the comm "Yes?" Bartch asked. "I finally got in touch with Karka, and he's agreed to meet with you! I'll send you his addresses." "Thank you." Bartch said turning off his com. Bartch then typed in Chipp's number but could not connect. "Hmm." Bartch said, "It's not connecting." "(Let me try.)" Q tried but was unsuscessful as well. "(Blocked.)" He said pocketing the com,"(That's weird.)" "Maybe we should go to Chipp immediately!" "(Yeah, but we need to get to him first.)" "Aye!" Suddenly a voice rang out catching their attention. Behind them are Tarrot and Flipp, with the former having electricity emitting from his hands as he was dressed in a black cloak and the latter wearing a hooded snow coat with a mask covering his actual face. "We want to talk." Tarrot said.
