I'm going to post short fics here.. NO RATINGS FANWRITER, KTHX. -.-
Just A Field Test
"Unit 7, report!"
"Heavy losses, Alia! Send hel- AHH!"
* * *
The three remaining Hunters were breathing heavily, gems glowing in the dim light of dusk. Before them stood a single figure, whose arms were crossed over his chest. The armor covering his body seemed thin and fragile, but extremely durable. He had deflected powered blasts from the busters of the Hunters with only his forearms. The armor covering his body was a deep ebony and seemed to draw the light into it. Under the armor, and covering his body, was a dark blue undersuit. Burn marks covered both armor and undersuit.
"Maverick scum! Help is on the way, you won't get away with this?"
"Oh.. But won't I?"
A crack of lightning erupted, seemingly from his hand, as sparks began to shoot through his clenched fists. The figure's deep purple eyes stared at the center reploid, who had spoken to him, a small glow emanating from his oculars. He grit his teeth as the lightning about his fingers began to increase, snap outward away from his hand, some licking the ground. The three reploids all readied their busters, aimed for vital spots on his body. He unclenched his hand and spread his fingers wide, the lightning stopping almost immediately.
"Giving up, Maverick?"
"We've already won."
"You've won?"
The figure's head twitched slightly, his gaze dropping to the earth at the center reploid's feet. Lightning erupted upward from the ground, striking against the poor reploid's chest, face, and buster. The lightning washed all over his bottom, from top to bottom, before sinking back into the ground. The reploid stood stock still for a moment, before the gem on his chest shattered and his torso exploded. His face seemed to be crushed by an unknown force, launching his body backward, slamming across the ground before coming to a halt a few yards where he was standing only a few seconds ago. The other two reploids exchanged glances, before looking to where the dark figure had been standing, finding nothing. They turned to look where their leader had been, the dark figure standing there, his fist steady where the reploid's face had been.
'So fast..'
'He didn't even move..'
"Ugh.. Chase.."
"Go Wyatt!"
The two reploids launched themselves hard and fast at the figure. The reploid on the right slammed his fist straight into the figure's visage, cracking his head to the side, while the left reploid aimed a kick straight for his side, pushing his body slightly that way. Neither hit got a response from the figure. He reached his left hand down and looped it around the reploid's head, grabbing him by the chin, while he used his right hand to grab the back of the other reploid's head. He slammed them together sharply in front of him, pressing them tightly into each other. Sparks rained from their joined faces. He squeezed the back of their helmets, lightning flicking from his fingers as he crushed them into each other, obliterating their AI. He threw the two bodies in their respected directions, both landing with a loud and sickening crunch.
"Hmph.. No challenge."
* * *
"What's the situation, Alia?!"
"Unit 7 has been completely destroyed. And by one Maverick!"
"Get us there now!"
"Gotcha. Teleportation sequence initiated, beginning now."
* * *
The figure turned his head at the sound of a trio of teleportation beams coming in behind him. He turned to greet the three newcomers, smirking with delight at the three reploids before him. The first reploid, a blood red one, ignited a bright green saber in his right hand, slanting it downward toward the ground, a mane of blonde hair behind him. The reploid to the red one's right was a soft blue tint and aimed a buster at him, a look of determination upon his young face. The final reploid sported two pistols and had armor many blue shades darker than the reploid with the buster, with a mane of fiery orange hair exiting the back of his helmet.
"Stand down, Maverick!" Zero swung his saber forward, pointing it to the dark figure.
"We don't want to have to destroy you, but we will if necessary!" X followed up, repositioning his buster, a soft glow beginning to throb at the end of his buster.
The figure held his hands in front of him, as if to make a serene gesture, but only snapped his fingers on both hands. The ground beneath both hands exploded outward, a wave of energy shooting through the earth straight toward X and Axl. Axl dove to the side, slamming into X and knocking him out of the way. The wave connected with his chest, exploding loudly, sending Axl's form rolling across the dirt. He lay still as he rolled over on to his side a few yards away from where he was hit. Zero dashed forward, twisting on his heel and aiming a slash for the figure's chest, who dodged backward, snapping his left hand again, sending another wave of energy toward X. X crouched and took the blast head on, flying upward a few feet before coming back down hard. Zero quickly back stepped to X's position, gritting his teeth as he helped X up.
"You alright, buddy?"
"Ugh.. He got Axl in one hit."
"He'll pay, don't worry about that."
X got to his feet and tapped the right side of his helmet, a teleportation beam slamming in on top of him, covering his body in a deep blue glow. As it faded, X landed on the ground heavily, covered in the dark grey tint of the Gaea Armor. He began charging a blast for a few seconds, before firing, the large blast tearing up the earth as it headed toward the figure. The figure swept his arms up from his sides, making them spread eagle, before whipping them around in front of him, a dark purple barrier shooting up in front of him, straight out of the ground. He curved his hands slightly, causing the barrier to do the same, forcing the large plasma shot to loop around and head back toward X. X slammed his shoulder into Zero's back, knocking him out of the blast's path. The resounding explosion launched X over Axl's form, skidding him across the ground for a few feet. As he came to a stop, he lay still, coolant leaking from his mouth and the tears on his body suit. Zero growled angrily, leaping to his feet, reigniting his saber.
"You've got to be kidding me.."
'He's only using ranged attacks.. Melee will get him.'
"Ah, the mighty Zero, standing alone as the bodies of X and Axl lay behind him, defeated by a single foe."
Zero came at the dark figure once more, whipping the saber crazily toward him. The figure leaped backward, the tip of the saber tearing through the material on his mid-section, blood trickling from the wound. He grit his teeth, sparks exploding from his right hand, a blade of pure energy appearing within his hand. He pushed forward, catching Zero's next attack easily, pushing the red reploid back. The dark figure whipped his blade over his head, but Zero blocked the attack, whipping his saber around to catch the two following slashes to the sides. He whipped his saber upward into an aerial uppercut, flipping over the figure and landing behind him. He spun on his heel and slashed forward hard, but the figure caught the slash on his energy blade. The two fighters separated, sliding back from one another across the ground, sweat trickling down both of their faces.
'Better than I thought he'd be.. But just a bit more and he's mine..'
The figure sprang for Zero, swinging down hard over his head, but Zero took hold of the figure's hand, squeezing it and holding the blade away from him. He swung his own saber in, but the figure placed his palm into the blade, catching it in his hand, the plasma searing through the undersuit and into his flesh.
"Bet that hurts, doesn't it?"
"You have no idea what pain is.."
The figure slammed his shoulder forward into Zero's face, knocking the reploid back away from him. The saber slipping from his hand, leaving the flesh deeply burned. He grit his teeth in pain, his hand twitching slightly. He pulled his fingers together into a fist, slamming his hand down against the ground, an wave of energy shattering through the earth toward Zero, exploding just in front of him, blocking his vision. The figure appeared in front of him, slamming his right foot and then left into Zero's jaw, cracking his face to the side, knocking him back and to the side. Zero quickly recovered and caught the fist aimed for the side of his head. He swept the figure's legs out from under him, twisting his entire body around and slamming his saber into the figure's back, the blade searing through the armor and down into the flesh, burning the wounds closed, keeping the blood inside of him. Zero breathed heavily, the figure on his knees behind him.
"Ugh.."
"Excruciating, isn't it?"
Zero turned around and slammed his foot into the figure's head, slamming him down into the dust. He set the blade to the figure's back, not letting the blade burn into him anymore, only resting it close enough for him to feel the heat.
"Kill me, Crimson Nightmare.."
"Resorting to name calling at the end of the fight? How brutal."
"Be branded a Maverick for killing a human.."
"Human.. ?"
He rolled the figure over on to his back, blood trickling out of the right side of his mouth, his eyes slightly open with pain. Blood stained his mid-section from the wound he was dealt earlier on by the tip of Zero's saber. He grit his teeth in pain from the wound on his back touching the ground, but he made no sound to cry out.
"For the damage you have caused to the Hunters, I'm sure they wouldn't brand me a Maverick for disposing of you."
"Hunters aren't supposed to kill humans.. Humans can't go Maverick.."
"True.. But you destroyed an entire Hunter unit, as well as damaged X and Axl. For what purpose, I have no idea."
"It was a test.."
"A test?" Zero's saber deactivated as he set his hands to his hips, tilting his head to the side, "What kind of test?"
"My armor.. I wanted to see if it could take it." The figure chuckled lightly.
"... All this for a field test?" Zero shook his head slowly, reaching his right hand to the side of his helmet, "Alia, teleport X and Axl back to base. Make sure the Med Unit is on standby for their arrival."
"Sure thing Zero."
"I'm bringing someone back with me, make sure there's a human med fit available. He's wounded pretty badly."
"What happened?"
"He kicked Hunter ass, is what happened."
Zero turned his head and watched two beams shoot upward toward the sky from where X and Axl were laying, the land barren except for the destroyed Unit 7. He turned his head back to the figure at his feet.
"What's your name, kid?"
"... Sadius."
"You're going to pay for Unit 7, you know this right?"
"Haha.. The wounds aren't enough?"
"Nope. You're going to do something more redeeming. Become a hunter and do the work that they did."
