Scanning...
[Good morning... Laura]
"How long have I been asleep?"
Processing.
[For 20 years]
"20 years?"
Laura, Tries to move.
[Error, Minor fracture detected, Please standby for repair]
Laura, Moves her legs
"Finally"
Laura stands up on the ground. And look around.
"Everything is still in ruins... Can you scan for any life form"
Scanning....
[Unable to Scan]
"What? Give me the reason"
[No Satellite detected]
Laura heads outside the room.
"Everything is so different..."
She walked to another room. She saw a corpse of someone. In a military uniform
"Captain..."
It's a remains of a person who Laura adores.
"Processor, can you scan the reason for his death?"
Laura moves her hand and the processor starts scanning.
[Starvation]
Laura goes outside. Carrying a old rusted shovel. And burried. Captains remains.
"Captain... Sorry for being deactivate for so long..."
[Scanning... Captain Julius Rain, cause of death. Starvation, before he's death Age 48]
"Wait... He survived for 10 years before dying..."
[Yes]
"Processor... Can you help me scan the entire building"
Laura heads to the 2nd floor and scans the room she is in.
"Nothing there..."
She scans outside her room.
"Nothing here also... If I knew about the Captain... I'm sure he does it for a reason..."
She scans the Captain's room.
[Detected]
"A switch!?"
Laura opened it. And the Drawer of the table opens.
"This is... A book? No... It's actually a diary..."
Laura opened the book.
"Year 2, Of day 291
I fought some Remnants of the Unitary Army... I got hit... But Luckily the bullet proof vest able to stops it... Their using Guns... Which is weird... Unitary soldiers uses Plasma and Chemical Bullets... But after I took the remains of the soldiers. They're using M1 Grand and Some modern Armoury like M34 Assault Gun and M2A Pistol. Perhaps they run out of Ammo after the Mothership of their entire Army falls down on earth..."
Laura finished reading the page
"So we won... But why is nobody around? Processor"
[Sorry but I'm unable to do that request]
"Why?"
Processor gone silent.
"Fine...." After reading some of the pages. A letter suddenly drops on the floor
"What's this?"
It's a Map where a hidden stash.
Laura began scanning the backdoor of the building and sure enough.
"Found it!"
Laura breaks the fake wall. And it's an storage of food, ammo and a Working vehicle
"Wait... There's food here..."
Laura suddenly reminds her what she said earlier.
"That starving... Bit... You have a reason..."
Laura check the loot.
"Sweet! My favourite M4 Is still here"
Laura suddenly open another box.
"This is..."
Laura opens a Box 5 Unitary weapons.
"Woah, I never knew I will wield this again... Processor can you scan the Weapon"
Scanning
[RN-1 Assault Chemical Weaponry]
"RN-1... I guess they update it huh"
Processor scans the remaining 4 weapons.
"MG Plasma Pistol... Zen Assault Rifle... Electrical Shocker... Radiator Cannon... Geez. Captain I didn't think you able to find this weapons... But taking them... Will be a risk... Since this won't work on Unitary Infantry and probably have no Ammo... But I will just get this two since their great at Anti Vehicle because of EMP effect of this cannon. MG Plasma Pistol and the Radiator Cannon"
Laura removes the fake wall entirely. And close the Garage.
"This is just a Garage..."
Laura head to the roof of the building.
"Everything is so Plant life... That Skyscraper over there has Vines all around it..."
"Should I stay here for a while. I mean there's nobody around and we can probably able to find food on the abandoned houses..."
Laura stays at the building. For now
[Motion detected]
"Someone is outside?"
Laura look at the window.
"Humans? Perhaps they noticed the garage?"
"Thank God I place a motion detector before sleeping"
*Glass breaking*
"Shit their really going to steal all of stuff!"
Laura equipped her M4. And head down stairs.
"Processor, can you scan below?"
Scanning...
[4 individual, 2 With Guns, and 2 have An Axed, Their location is at the entrance of the Garage]
Laura head to the 1st floor. And look at the window.
"Shit there still here please leave" another glass breaks.
Then someone break the Garage.
"Sweet! We finally have a Vehicle!"
"Yeah man, We been walking on the road for ages"
"Yo guys! There's some supplies here!"
"Sweet! We hit a jack spot!"
"Hey... Do you think there's someone living here?"
"Well if there's someone, It's easier if we just kill him"
"But-"
"It's Survival of the fitness, Boy, And don't just stand there, Start packing!"
"Ri-right!"
The thief. Goes to the living room
"Everything is run down... Oh well, Perhaps someone just stays here-"
"Who are you"
Suddenly gun fire. On the living room
"Fuck! I got spotted!"
"I got you man!"
Two shot fires. And also hit Laura.
"Fucked! Processor!"
[I'm on it, Scanning....]
"Thanks!"
Laura peaked on her gun in the corner. And shot's 5 rounds. Hitting two of the thieves.
[2 Enemies Killed]
Laura, Look around. With her M4. As she entire the Garage.
"Hiiiyaaa!"
An Axed almost slice her. But It was able to block with her M4. Which almost break in half
Laura push the thief. And shot it with her M4.
[1 remaining]
"I know"
Laura looked around. Suddenly. She hears a Heart beating. Below a table.
"Please leave me please leave me" the boy stumbles in fear.
Scanning
[Hostile enemy unable to fight]
"Thanks Processor"
"Oy! If I know you're still here! I have a gun. If you don't want to be dead. Stop hiding and show up"
A few seconds later. The boy appears.
"Why are you on my house"
"We didn't know this place is... Occupied"
"Processor!"
Scanning
[Lie Detected]
Laura, Hold her Gun Tightly
"Say the truth! Or I will not hesitate of blowing your sorry ass"
"Okay! Okay! When We're walking. We find out that there's a Garage. With a Vehicle. The other men suddenly started talking about stealing it since there's nobody here. But I noticed that everything is still organized and nothing is been stolen. I told them about there's someone here"
"Processor!"
Scanning
"Still nothing... I guess your saying the truth..."
The boy exhale
"What about my other friends..."
"You're their friend? That's odd. I didn't think you were one... But oh well they're dead anyways"
"They're dead!?"
"They shot me first, So It's a Justified Self defense!"
The boy laughed and said.
"Haha... They're dead..."
Laura look at the boy
"Hey, if you laugh like that I won't hesitate shooting you"
Suddenly. The boy collapsed.
"What the? Processor scanned what happened?"
Morning.
5am...
"Where am I?"
"Yo"
The boy flinched
"Good morning"
"Go-good morning"
Laura with her M4. In ready.
"Okay, a few things I want you to tell me , who you are"
"My name is Kei Schwinn, And I'm 16"
"Processor, are you taking notes"
[Yes]
"Okay, Kei. What has happened in the past years?"
Kai explains that. In the past 10 years. Humanity is steadily declined after the defeat of the Mother ship of Unitary Colonia. They didn't attempt to come back which left most of It's Resources and some personnel. Some people started gathering for rebuilding of civilization. and then there were some radicals who started doing the opposite.
"So you're saying that, The nearest civilization here is 125 Km here?"
"Yes It's on the west coast, That's the only Place where a country has been born"
"So UNA is Dissolved?"
"That's the old country name? But yeah"
"Damn... Is the other countries also exist?"
"There's also other land besides here?"
After Laura explains there's more than this continent. Kei went silent.
"So where is not the only one suffering huh..."
"Go down stairs"
"O-okay"
[Laura is it a good idea to Keep him here?]
"It's fine, Processor He's basically a Kid"
[Ain't you also a Kid]
"Eh I'm a Hybrid remember, the concept of Age doesn't matter to us"
Kei goes down stairs.
"You're finally here"
"? What's with the food..?"
"Since you're going to be here for a while, why not stay? I want to learn about what has happened in the past 20 Years"
"You... Don't really know?"
"Nope at all"
"I- I thought you were joking... But I think that your tone can't lie..."
"Here's some Canned food"
"-thanks... You're not eating?"
"It's fine, I eat only once per day"
"Oh..."
"Hey... Laura is it?"
"Yeah?"
"You said you... Want to know what's going on for the past years"
"Yeah"
"Tomorrow... Can you follow me"
"Hmmm.... If you going to trap me or do something to me. I will definitely not going to be hesitate to fire on you"
"Never..."
"Eh? You're backing out?...?"
"Well you said you will Kill me... It's better being safe"
"Eh don't be like that!"
"Fin-fine... This girl is kinda crazy..."
The next day.
"Everything is ready Laura?"
"Yep!"
As they walk to the streets of the ruined neighborhood. They walk for 30 minutes when they're at the City area.
"Woah, nobody is able to settle here?"
"There's few people living inside the buildings. But most are empty"
Kei. Opens a door.
"This is it"
"Woah Kei. When did you know about this place?"
"I stumble this back when I'm with that group you killed"
Laura looks around.
"This is some details shit... Processor can you copy all of the data"
[I'm on it]
"Say Kei. Do you know what's going on in this place?"
"Not really. I thought I found a Hightech equipment when I opened this place. But rather it's an observation of a Soldier who survived like years in here"
"Where is that Soldier's remains?"
"I put them here"
"In this box?"
"Yeah... It's decaying"
[Warning, Bad odor detected proceed with caution]
"I know about that Processor!"
Laura opens the box
"Damn... Processor can you scan the remains"
Scanning ...
[Private. Henry Joseph, From the 4th Army division]
"4th army division... Ain't they the first division that got wipe out during the first month of the War?"
[Yes. Seems like his knowledge of how to counter the Unitary Infantry able to develop and progress the technology of this planet]
"So basically... He's one of the main reasons why humanity is able to destroy the mother ship of the Unitary Colonia... Kei!"
"Yeah?"
"Let's go, Processor is now complete"
As they go outside. They encountered a large creature walking on the road
"What the hell is that!?"
"Shhh!"
As the creature leaves. Kei suddenly said
"That's a Monster that Unitary units have!"
"What? Processor can you take a look of that"
[Unable]
"So no records... Perhaps it's new breed of Species... About 75% of Mammal's population died... Let's kill it!"
"Are you insane!?"
"Have you fought it before?"
"Of course! There is not something you can kill with your own! Their resistance to any type of pain"
"Any type of pain... So the way to kill it is to kill its entire System..."
[I think that's the best way]
"Okay Kei, Hold this for a moment "
"What the!? This is an JN-19!?"
"Just hold it for a while"
As Laura head to the creature
"Processor try document everything, record starts now"
[Processing... Recording starts]
Laura. Head and fire it's M4
"Okay it actually penetrates it. But it seems like It doesn't react to the wound..."
The creature. Rush toward Laura.
"Oopsie daisy!" Dodge. And grab and swing on a pole.
And fire 10 rounds on the head of the creature
"Surely that's dead"
Creature moves. But falls down.
"It's dead...?"
Laura look at it.
The eyes is still moving. But blood is now pouring down.
"Ah..." The creature eye's look at Laura. Then stops moving.
"Processor, can you scan now?"
[Scanning... Unidentified Species... Finding family Branch of unidentified Species... From the Giraffidae Family. From giraffe]
"Eh? It's an Evolve of a Giraffe... Perhaps because of the recent war. They probably have force to evolve to become a combat ready by the Unitary Army And since There's no trees in the city. Their neck starts to shrink but their body starts to inflate"
[Document: Unidentified Species from Giraffidae Family. Add name:]
"I think I shouldn't tell what type of name it is..."
Laura comes to Kei
"Hey kei what's the name of that creature?"
"Their are called. Man eating alien. Or something like that. They never have an Official name..."
"Never have an official name... Processor, add the name: [Girafa]"
[Adding: Documentation Creature: Girafa]
"Now that's everything... Kei"
"Yeah I'm on it"
They gone back home.
For a few weeks. Laura hasn't gone outside the house. She has been reading all of the Captain's diary, and also the information she got on the computer after her Deactivation.
"Seems like The Remnant of the Unitary Army has started to organize huh... But from where... For the past 4 weeks I haven't contacted the HQ or other Hybrids... There's no fault in my communication... Are there?"
Scanning
[No Failure detected]
"Nothing..."
Kei decided to leave. After Laura doesn't go outside for the past few weeks. Kei find an Abandoned Unitary Aerial ship.
"Holy crap... Is this what the Unitary Colonia's Battleship?"
Side note this is just a Scout ship-
Kei open an hatch.
"Sweet! This is Unitary weaponry!"
Suddenly gunfire is heard outside the aerial ship.
As he look outside.
"I found this first!"
"No we found it first!"
Then gun fire started again.
"Two Faction raiders!?"
Kei goes back inside, while gunfire is still heard. Bullet bounce outside the ship. And kei is looking something. Suddenly he gone into the Main Deck of the Aerial ship.
"This is... The control panel... Is there a way to start this..."
Kei looks around. And find something on the ground. Is shape as a letter L. Kei started it. And then
"What the!?"
Suddenly. Kei's entire arm. Suddenly got engulfed of a Mist of darkness. Kei open his eyes. And noticed the L shape object. Suddenly immerge inside of his right arm.
He move it around and noticed
"It's a translator..?"
Kei move it around. And look at it. Some of the Language. Suddenly translated on the device.
"Woah..."
After few scanning. He finally knows where the main power is. Then.
[System: Activate]
Suddenly the entire scout ship, Started to activate.
"What the!?" People outside fighting. Started looking at the ship.
"Son of a Bitch, Someone sneak in!"
"We can't let does bastard get away!"
Suddenly the two raider groups. Started shooting the ship. While having heavy casualties.
The Ship starts moving to a direction.
"What the hell is that?"
People on the ground saw a massive ship. Flying over the sky. Kei tries to find a way to stop it. The Finally crash landed on a near by forest.
"Geez... Is everything still intact...?"
Kei look at it. And said Fuel, and Zero Gravitational boosters are damage.
Meanwhile.
Laura saw the scout ship.
And begin preparing.
Laura with a Motorcycle. Rides to the location of the crash site.
"Processor, start recording"
Laura walks for a mile when she suddenly hear engine.
"What the? Helicopters?"
Laura follows the trail where the helicopter are. Then suddenly saw soldiers.
Laura remember what Captain said to her.
"The Navy Branch? The Pacific branch... They got wipe out during an operation Falcon... Which is a full scale Retake of an Island. Where Unitary forces landed. Nobody knows where the rest of the Pacific navy but reports did came that 8 Carriers. Which one of them is the USS. Forrestal. A super carrier got immediately sank after 90 miles of the coast of the Island. The only existing navy is the Atlantic, but their more focus on defense. But they do have an different uniform. Atlantic have navy blue. And Atlantic has Royal Blue"
Present -
"That uniform! Processor are they the Pacific branch?"
[Unable to identify please come closer]
Laura sneaks to the forest
"Is it better just to contact them?"
Scanning...
[Uniforn and Banner Verified]
"So this is the Pacific branch..."
As the Helicopter. Flies away with everyone inside. Laura goes inside the crash site.
"Did they took something?"
Laura scan the area.
"Ah... They remove the Gravitational Boosters... But the way this impacted... It's probably broken"
Laura look outside.
"Bullet scrape and holes... This scout ship operating this is a veteran... Why did he crash land..."
Laura scrape some of the parts. And decided to head home. In the time being. She tries again to contact The HQ or one of the Hybrids but nobody response.
The next day.
[Warning: SOS detected]
"What the.!? Processor"
[Audio Recording Play]
"This is... Sergeant Hans Benedict, *Cough* *Cough* We crash landed in... *Inaudible* we... need immediate Response... Anyone in the army... *Cough* *Cough*" Gunfire heard everywhere
"Raider Gangs... Shot down our Helicopter... And *Cough* Engagement is happening..."
"Sergeant Hans! Paul! Drag him to the near the chopper! I will support you with Gunfire"
[Audio Recording stops]
"There the same people in the Helicopter... Yesterday, Processor, calculate the location of the SOS"
[Processing]
"What should I bring... Too much will be clunky... I guess 2 Assault Gun. 1 pistol and 4 Grenades. Going to left behind the Unitary weapon this time"
[Location found, Scanning]
"How long is the journey "
[About 4 hours]
"4 hours..."
Laura. Turn on the motorcycle. And head to the location
4 hours later.
"Processor, scan the area"
[Scanning for Satellite, Unable to scan]
"Ah shit-" Laura saw a smoke coming to the forest
"Found it!" Laura head directly to the forest. Dodging trees and bush along the way. Is she goes further she can hear Gunfire firing
"They lasted that long!?"
[Satellite found! Scanning]
[Enemies located]
"Thanks Processor"
Laura saw the outline of the Enemies. She jump out of the Motorcycle.
"Okay, Where distance enough" Laura sneak to behind a hill. And shoot the one whose firing at the top
"One down... 20 more to go"
Laura used the hill and began sniping everyone
*Tap tap tap*
All of them headshots
"Okay ghost are clear"
On the crash chopper
"The gunfire stops?"
"How much Ammo you have"
"2 magazine left"
"Here last mag, make it count"
Suddenly. As they began, to escape. They saw someone.
"Shh"
They look
"It's a woman"
Gone back to Laura
"Where is everybody... Hey! This is Laura H-112, I received the SOS"
A soldier comes out of the crash chopper
They hold their gun. But not aggressively
"This is Private Paul"
As they talk.
"Hybrids... I haven't seen one in years. But to think one of them still exist"
"Did something happen?"
"You don't know?"
Paul started talking
"During the Mothership destruction. The Unitary Colonia decided to have a peace treaty. Which one of them is the full annihilation all Hybrids. Which the government around the world that still exist. Obliged immediately except two. As the remaining ship goes back to space, Unitary Army branch doesn't even recognize the treaty. Which why there's still Unitary resistance on the planet. The Navy, Aerial Forces and the government already decided peace"
"Annihilation of Hybrids... But why... Ain't them the main forces why we won the war?"
"That's basically. Hybrids like you are... You can say... Basically indestructible... You gain consciousness right?"
"Before I was just. Being command with Capt. But something happen during that time... I gain emotion... That's normal right, Captain told us that It's normal"
"... It's not"
"Eh?"
"That's why... You Hybrids... Are you can called... The first evolution of Artificial intelligence... The voice you hear in your head is Called NAM. Neurons And Modules. Which is what is said..."
After the rescue team able to pick the remaining soldiers still a live. Laura goes back home. They wanted Laura to join them. But She refuses.
On the motorcycle, going back home
"Processor... Have you tried to check the backlogs of other Hybrids"
Processing...
[Unable to connect to the HQ]
"I figured... The destruction of the Hybrids... I wonder what Captain's reaction to all of it..."
