EP:4

the bike drive in front of the entrance led inside, but the thing they didn't expect that the way in was blocked, the tunnel entry was collapsed. "hmm how are we gonna get in?" ICon said.

Jame: "Well, you said you came from here right?"

IC-0n: "Maybe, hehe, well we can try to dig our way in or-"

Jame: "Let me teleport us inside"

he parks his bike on the side of the road, then proceeds to scan the whole area. once finished he found the facility, buried deep inside the mountainside.

Jame: "Got it" he places his hand on ICon's head, AS symbol appeared under them, then all of their cells get teleported to where the other mark is, inside the facility reception.

IC-0n: "Wow, nice ability dude, how do you do it by the way?"

Jame: "I assimilate a teleportation device when I was still hunting the creator who almost destroy a world"

IC-0n: "Really? you're way more interesting than I expected, more than those pities human"

the two go deep inside the facility, in the main hall they see many skeletons, most likely from the employee in here, and a big giant blast door got destroyed, more like something had broken out. "Oh yeah, I remember, this is the place I used to be in. They tried to keep me in there to do something..." -IC-0n

Jame: [unknown substance detected / 97% similar to D-blood] "This is quite interesting" he picked up a small cube on the floor next to a corpse, and examined it. suddenly, the cube sparked out a wave of red electricity through Jame's left arm, "What the..?"

IC-0n: "What you doing?"

the cube somehow stuck to his skin, Jame tries to drop it, but the skin was fused with the cube's surface. "this thing... can you remove it?"

IC-0n: "Lemme try" Her metal claw grab on the cube, then ripped it out of Jame's hand. black liquid dropping down from his hand, and his whole hand flesh got torn out. "oops"

Jame: "It's normal. do you know what this is?"

ICon looks at the cube before throwing it in her mouth and eating it. "yeah, it's kinda like a separate system with different A.I"

Jame: "What?"

IC-0n: "How do I explain it uhh... it's kinda like a parasite, when it makes contact with living things, it will immediately try to take over control of the body, kill off the host then take over control"

Jame: "I see, that might explain why those agents calling you the stolen weapon of mass destruction by the government, this might be right because you are the first Internecion cube thingy that taken over control of the superweapon, or I might hear wrong. but if you don't have any memory about your pass then, that just might make sense, Icon, IC-0n, the origin cube?"

IC-0n: "I totally understand..."

Jame gives her a "give up" face.

IC-0n: "Okay, I don't but your theory might make sense with the time I've been with Max. Can we just continue?"

Jame: "Let's head to the containment area"

they continue, walking down the path, where the sign said "IC-01 -> 20n" and "IC-20 -> 40n". many cells were pretty much empty, some inside have a dead body, mostly female with subject clothes, at cell number 36n, Jame see a sliced half-head of a girl. seeing these things, he slowly to visualizing what ICon causes when she said "I broke out from that place" on the way here.

Jame: "Jesus Christ how many... cube being is there? and where are they now? i want to study one"

IC-0n: "I don't know" *shrug*

Jame: "Let's just go back, I'm tired of this depressed atmosphere in this place"

the two started to head back to where they came from, passing from cell to cell, Jame didn't forget to collect a sample of the strange liquid and assimilate it with D-blood, turn out the substance of the cube is weaker than D-blood. "fast but weak... mine is... slow but powerful"

IC-0n: "What that?"

Jame: "Nothing"

IC-0n: "Oookaaaay?"

when they almost got out of the hallway, Jame detected something, in the first cell.

[Warning: diverged entity detected: IC-01n / Warning: syste- (ERROR)] "Arrrghh!!!" he fall on his knee, and the halo appeared along with his claws and tail.

IC-0n: turns around to see him, she knows what's wrong: "Woah! Jame! what happen?"

["Jame!..... Jame!..... there you are... it's okay now, I was afraid to lose you... (ERROR-505)

"don't take him... NOOO!" [terminated] [subject: 01# / Lauren / ready to be reconstructed]

Jame: "AAAAAAAAHH!!!!" Jame draw his blade, and almost sliced ICon's head in half. when he gets back his awareness, Jame sees ICon shivering in fear, with the blade near her head. Jame dropped the blade, "I'm sorry, I don't know what just happened, I think I just got a flashback... but... I don't recognize it... her face"

IC-0n: "Oookay... jeez, you are soo dramatic, get up" She helps Jame to stand up.

when he got up, he felt something dragging him close, so he go toward cell 01n. "Jame?" ICon asked, "What's wrong?", his left arm turns into a blaster, and ICon wide her eyes, questioning "Is there a threat? Another IC? Why I can't detect it?".

Jame raises his blaster up, and ICon follows him, Jame grabs the handler, ripped out the door, and pointed his weapon inside. ICon peaking in, they saw nothing except a bigger cube compared to the other one.

IC-0n: "01n... the door said. I guess she is in sleep mode"

Jame said nothing, he walk inside, retract his blaster away, and take the cube, scanning.

???: "Hello?"

Jame: "Woah!"

IC-0n: "It just speaks!"

Jame dropped the cube down, and when it hit the ground, "Ow! What's wrong with you?"

Jame backed away, and the cube floats up, it spread out black liquid, then slowly formed her robotic form "That's better" She looks at Jame who had his blaster aimed at her along with ICon and her stringer gun. "IC-0n?"

IC-0n: "She knows me" she whispered to Jame.

IC-01n: "Of course, every Internecion cube has the ability to detect each other, I should thank you for breaking this place down, hihi. anyway, you are?"

Jame: "call me Jame, Death Core"

IC-01n: "Death Core? That sounds a weird name for an IC"

Jame: "I'm not from your timeline, what are you... and why I... know your name..."

Lauren: "Oh you do? Lauren by the way ICon. How do you know, did we meet before? You look familiar..." she said calmly, she is higher than ICon about 4 inches, with yellow hair, and red and dark blue X eyes.

Jame: "I don't think so.. but..." [safe] "It... familiar"

Lauren: "IC-404?" she was shocked when realized, her hands started shaking, slowly walked up to Jame. he also lower his blaster, ICon was very confused right now. when the hand touches his face, she then hugged him. face on his chest, she was crying? her sound was quite distorted like ICon but quite older than her. "Young brother... where have you been all this long..."

IC-0n: "What?!"

Jame: "What..."

IC-0n: "Hey hang on!" she grab Jame's shirt tightly, "I thought you don't have a family!?"

Jame: "I am" he looks at 01n "Hey I think you mistook me for someone, I'm not your brother"

Lauren: "I can't be wrong, you have that hair, face, and body shape, brother, Jamie I miss you" She continues hugging Jame, making him more awkward, and ICon is getting surprised and flabbergasted.

Jame Claws pull Lauren out, "What's wrong? little bro?" -Lauren

Jame: "Listen!" he grabs ICon's hand and then pulls it to stop choking his shirt. "I'm not your brother, I am from a different timeline, not the original one in your and her world. Lady, you need to calm down, look at me, do I look completely similar to your brother? IC-404n?"

Lauren: "Huh?" she starts to notice after closing inspection, his clothes, height, hairstyle, ... "Ooh... I see... you are higher than him, and... don't have the hat"

Jame: "Jeez, but wait... does he wear a black hat and jacket? I'm curious"

IC-0n: "What are you onto right now?" she gives him a side eye with an eyebrow raised

Lauren: "Yes, how do you know? do you know him?"

Jame: "I don't, but just have a theory... I see someone mistake me for him before... she tried to kill me"

IC-0n: "Huh? Really?"

Jame: "And for some reason, I can detect these IC things you said, and maybe I share the memories with him somehow, plus you, Lauren, you said I look very similar to your brother, that must be... me in another timeline?"

IC-0n: "Woah that's pretty convincing"

Lauren: "But... do you know where is now?"

Jame: "No, but I'm on a quest to find the meaning of this cube thing, and find a way to return my world. also, helping ICon here to disable her safe mode, and maybe stop her from devouring the whole universe as she said"

IC-0n: "Heeey!" she getting angry like a cat "Max told you to watch me out eh?"

Jame: "Yes he did after you two failed to make peace with each other"

IC-0n: "Dammit..."

Lauren: "soo... what are you two going to do now?"

Jame: "Uuh... ICon?"

IC-0n: "Maybe heading to the next facility? in the wasteland? I think they move everything there"

Jame: "Yeah, we going there"

Lauren: "Wait can I go with you? I want to find my little bro, he might be there, and I can help y'all if ya needed"

Jame: "Yeah alright"

IC-0n: "What? Wait" She pull Jame's head down and whispered in his ear "Why are you soo easy to on trusting someone? She could try and backstab us if she has the chance"

Jame: "Yeah I know, but I think if she is evil, she could attack us when I picked the cube up in the cell, calm down, if she does try to kill us, I can take her down easily" he lifts his body up "alright you can come, let's go"

IC-0n: "Oh my god-complex head"

Lauren: "Yay!" she turns back into her cube form and floats to Jame to land on his head.

Jame: "Cmon"

IC-0n: "This is soo bad..."

the three then head back to the reception, and out into the tunnel, it was very dark with no light besides Jame's, ICon's, and Lauren's eyes glowing.

Jame: [target marked / relocating...] he places his hand on ICon's head again, and they all teleported outside where they go in from.

IC-0n: "Okay let's head t-" She stopped when seeing what was in front of them, many government vans and agents with guns pointing at them.

Jame: "IC-0n, how did they find us?"

IC-0n: "ehh, maybe I... uh my metal claws scratching the road... hehehe... sorry"

Jame: *sigh* his right arm turns into a railgun, he pointed right at the agents, and the gun begins to spark out red electric lightning and roar like a beast. "I don't want to hurt ya, soo lower your weapons or die..."

Lauren: "Woah there, I want t join too" She floats up, and the cube creates a small whirlwind sphere with blood and skeleton then all reconstructing together to create her human form. yellow blond hair, her hands are like sharp dark claws, her eyes are blue and red, she wears a black chest shirt covering her front, a black wide belt on her body, wearing a short dress, black socks with high heel shoes, and a lab coat. a monster head got created on her side, and she sit on it with two wings-like things on her side, she is taller now, taller than Jame about 2 inches. "Alright, I'm ready~" she sounds more questionable now.

Jame and ICon widen their eyes after hearing her voice sound more like a lady. "why do I have that weird urge that I can't explain how?" ICon said.

Jame: "Not going to ask about it" he looks at the agents, their jaws all dropped down, and some are dripping from their mouths. "Jesus Christ, lower your weapon!!"

ICon also bring out her gun and the metal claws, Lauren's monster that she sitting on opened its mouth, a strong energy slowly charging up, looks like it was ready to fire. the agents look at them with fear, and many of them are backing away.

IC-0n: "Why do we have to spare them anyway? let's just kill them"

Lauren: "Thinking about it... they locked me up in a lonely chamber with nothing... yeah... let's just kill them off"

the agents yikes in fear after ICon and Lauren let out a murderous smile, some of them dropped their weapons and begin to run, some stand their ground shaking.

Jame: "No we are not killing them... they have a family and things they have, we will not kill them"

IC-0n: "Oh come on" she gives him a push on the elbow, "I know you like us, crazy, bloodthirsty, and DEADLY"

Jame: "That's an old pass of me... I won't be like that no more" he looks at the agent one more, they are still aimed at him "Don't make me do this..." his railgun getting brighter.

ICon, Jame, and Lauren, two of them are waiting for the showdown, but Jame, doesn't want to kill them, but then, someone, two people shows up.

Krow: "We meet again..." (Japanese)

313n: "We will take back our honor" (still Japanese)

two of them from behind the agents, posing in a weeb-like style. Jame and ICon recognized them, but Lauren questioned things why there were two lost child there, "is that your friend?" she said.

Jame: "No..."

IC-0n: "Ugh, that two weeb brothers and sister again"

Crow from afar: "HEY STOP, YOU ALL MAKING US LOSING ALL THE FLASHY"

all the agents turn around to look at the two, awkwardly.

Agent#1: "Uuuh you two going to go in there or...?"

313n: "We do step aside! let the pros do the job" [weapon system: ready]

Agent#2: "Boys! We're out of here now!" then all the agents hop on their vehicles to bail out of the area.

313n levitate herself up, her brother standing on the ground, hand spinning a revolver, he then pointed it at the three. "*some cool Japanese lines that I was too lazy to think*" -Krow fired the revolver, and the bullet flew straight to Jame. he takes his left hand to catch the bullet, but when his hand makes touch it, the bullet then blows up like 10 C4s forces. he got sent to the broken tunnel.

Lauren: "Jamie!"

ICon's metal claws picked Jame's bike up and then throw it at them, her gun built itself like a rifle, and she then empty the mag at the bike when it was close to Krow and 313n. the bike exploded, but 313n used her power to stop the blast. she then flies to them fast. Lauren's monster head fired out a power ray, the surrounding of the ray gets twisted and shredded like a whirlwind, and the wings-like on her side created a slashing wave with her left hand. 313n created a protective symbol, making the ray splitter into 10, then after it, she dodged the slash wave. "miss me!"

Lauren: "Oh really?" she brings her right hand up, and the wave stopped, and 313n noticed the ground was cut open like a portal to a different dimension, for a quick moment, she noticed something was wrong, then make back flip, dodging a big claw, like Lauren's right arm, from the crack, striking back.

IC-313n: "Woah!"

Krow: "She's good, sister duck!" he fired another round, this time it aimed straight at Lauren. but, ICon quickly creates a giant metal wall, the explosion makes the wall completely destroyed, and the two got knocked back.

Lauren: "Thank you"

IC-0n: "You welcome" [generating...] "Eat this!" she creates a big energy canon, and it shot out a giant sphere coming fast at Crow.

313n: "No you don't" She create a cybernetic katana, "Return to sender!" the katana hit the sphere, got absorbed inside the katana, then get sent back at a slashing wave coming at the two.

IC-0n: "bad choice!! AAA-"

Lauren: "EEEAAK!"

Jame from inside the debris, accelerated out, his tail grabbing on the slash, then absorbed it instantly, "these rebars are stabbing through my body" he pulled another rebar from his chest, turns it into his blade, and blade holder, he unsheaths another one and holds it on his left hand, the blade glows red like his eyes.

Lauren: "Jamie!"

IC-0n: "Thank god you were here on time"

Jame: "Sorry. now... these two are going to get a** kick"

Krow goes up to his sister's side, and they both smile with confidence. "heh! you won't be able to beat us this time, soon or not, we will capture ICon there"

IC-0n: '"In your dream idiots!" she creates another rifle, firing at Krow.

313n use her kinetic ability to redirect the bullets away, Krow fired another shot. James throw his right blade straight at the bullet, causing it to explode, then Lauren, create a giant symbol with 3 arrows pointing out from a cube on the ground, the dark purple color light glowing, changing her wings, the monster's head decays away, then three more creature heads show up on her side, fired at then purple flame balls like a machine gun.

Jame: "AS v1..." he whispered

313n uses her katana to slice each one of the balls coming at them with fast speed. Krow takes out his grenade, throws it at the three, and the flash blows up, blinding them, Jame however, he spread his blade wings out, and charges at them with his blades and claws [locked on]

313n: "Take this!" she form a shotgun right on his face, Jame quickly dodged it, and his claws strike down, but missed, Krow, loaded in his revolver a piercing round, he fired it at Jame, he dodged it with ease, and the bullet when through the mountain leaving behind a light trail. Lauren dashed in, she grab Jame and throw him up, then fire out a laser ray from her left hand. 313n easily blocked it, ICon then join the fun, her metal claws strike at her, and Krow shot it, knocking them back, ICon then pointed her stringer gun at him and pulled the trigger. "EAT IT" -IC-0n, 313n take her gun and pointed it away from her brother, using her own kinetic symbol, Jame dived down with his blades, upon making contact with the ground because the two jumped away, huge slashes exploded shredded every in the zone, but leave ICon and Lauren safe, "dammit" Jame pulled his sword out of the ground, he then accelerated, vanished, then appeared in front of Krow and 313n, diving his left and right blade at them.

Krow: "That's some fancy anime move! you are greater than I thought machine!"

313n: "But we won't be easily defeated!"

313n quickly parried Jame, Krow shot the claw, 313n then create an energy sphere on her right hand, and pushed it into Jame's chest, he cut off 313n arm, Krow shot the sphere, causing it to blow up. both Krow and 313n laughed, her arm regenerated back fast. ICon and Lauren are coming, the symbol created by Lauren then disabled the gravity, and she boosted ICon to them, Jame got out of the smoke, his jaw and chest are gone, wielding his blade, he throw two of them at Krow and 313n then jump up, his claws turns into two machine guns, Jame then regenerate his body and clothes back, grabbed ICon who is flying at them, he created an AS symbol on her body, it turns into damage resistance and speed boost, helping ICon destroy them.

IC-0n: "Here we go!!!" [generating...] She forms a red cube in her hand, she throws it at Krow and 313n before letting her metal claws ready to pierce them.

Krow shoot the cube, but it moved to the side, "NANI!" -Krow. Lauren is controlling the gravity forces, causing the cube to hit on 313n mark shield. "not today" -313n.

IC-0n: "Hahaha!!!" she successfully grab on 313n and Krow, her claws struck down, and Krow got slashed on his left hand, and on 313n's headphones. they got pushed along with her, down along the cliff. Jame and Lauren fly after her.

Krow: "Ahh!" he fired more rounds at ICon, but she grabbed it and then pointed it away, the shots flew straight through the rocks, causing it to collapse. 313n kicked her away, she creates a raygun and fired it at ICon, Jame flew by, he sliced the ray in two, then "ENOUGH" [absolute speed: engaged]

the time stopped, Jame stabbed 313n right in the stomach, grab Krow's neck with his left hand, his claws crushed his weapon, then he pulled them straight down to the surface below, and pinned them. [Absolute speed: off]

ICon only sees his shape in front of her for a blink, then disappeared with the other two, when she looks down, she sees Jame already suppressed them. "Nice!"

Lauren: "Safe landing" She picks the ICon on her arms, then slowly levitates down.

Krow and 313n were shocked by what just happened, the only thing they see now is Jame stabbing 313n and choking Krow.

Jame: "Not going to kill you two, stay down..." he said with a death look in his eyes, glowing red on their face, 313n and Krow are really scared for real now.

IC-0n: "Nice dude, finished them off!"

Lauren: "Shouldn't we get some information about them first?"

IC-0n: "No, kill!"

Jame: "I'm not going to or let you do that, just need to scan their memory"

Lauren: "Does that mean..."

IC-0n: "Brain surgery!" she's getting excited now.

Jame: "You need to calm down with that insane complex mind of yours. soo let's finish this quick" [scanner: ready]

Krow: "We're sorry"

313n: "Forgive us please"

after a while, Jame finally got some information. "hmm Refinoc research management and government shadow. sounds promising, alright we heading to where Max taking ICon from"

Lauren: "What about these two? Do you want to kill them? we shouldn't leave them alive after they inform the government about us"

Jame: "No, but we can kill them, they are just 15, and the girl is an experiment subject with the cube if I scanned correctly"

IC-0n: "Boo..."

Jame: "Besides, I'm older than you two, I'm the adult here"

IC-0n and Lauren: "Heeey.."

Jame creates a bicycle on the road, he unties Krow and 313n, and they two jump up and back away from him a little. "why?" Krow asked, "why you spared us again?" -313n

Jame: "I won't if you two tries to stop us again, get out of here, go live a fruitful live, if I see you two inform whoever what you two are working with, and I'll eat your Blood"

ICon looks at Jame with questioning eyes: "Eating blood..?"

Jame: "Shut up, go away!"

Krow and 313n let out an "eek!" then 313n turns into cube form and Krow put her in his shirt and then drives the bike away from the three.

Lauren: "Sooo.... what now?"

Jame: "Let me call someone, look for a bus that can take us to that place"

IC-0n: "What is a bus?"

Lauren: "Alright"

[calling: Mari...] "Hope this works..."
