Chapter 2 :The secret and the project

Kouzuki is still heading toward the lab. After a while, he arrives at the lab, but he is too late, as the lab is completely destroyed along with the drones. After seeing the destroyed lab, he immediately asks Esha to search for any survivors. After a quick scan with the drones by Esha, she replies, "Yeah, sir, some are alive and stuck in the wreckage of the destroyed lab." Then, images of the survivors appear in his helmet, showing where they are trapped and needing his help. He then charges up his thrusters and flies toward the people in need. After a while of helping them with his suit and drones, he takes a rest on a fallen concrete wall and finds a comfortable spot to sit. After a sigh, he asks, "Why did the monster appear out of nowhere in the lab?" He thinks for a while, and then a sudden thought comes to him, prompting him to ask Esha to show footage of the monster from anywhere near the lab. Esha shows every piece of footage regarding the monster inside his helmet, and Kouzuki examines every bit of footage available there.

After a while of watching the footage quickly, he found something in the footage and asked Esha to zoom in on it. *The monsters were almost like in Armour like old times with kind of technology and high devices but Armour looked old but kinda like reptiles and other beings *

It shows that the monster was destroying the lab but one of the drones shoots at him with a tracker on it but drone gets destroyed and the tracker gets inside him without knowing the monster after that monster completely destroyed the labs and then sets to go back by doing something on his armband on his right hand, kouzuki ask Esha to zoom in towards the armband on his hand.

It shows some kind of location somewhere, but the language, so Kouzuki ask Esha to " translate the language from past exploration." Esha replies immediately, saying, "Yes sir, now the language translation goes".

Then, in an instant, the language gets changed on shows in a language understandable to Kouzuki. After he sees it, he asks Esha for the location of the armband pointing at.

Then Esha shows Kouzuki the locations by saying, "It's the last location from where we travelled, sir". Kouzuki was surprised and asked in a trembling voice," Is that really the same location, Esha?". Esha replies, "Yeah, sir, the language is correctly decoded and translated, sir." Kouzuki gets up and walks around nervously for a while, then asks Esha, "Is there anyone left that needs help?". To which Esha replied, "None, sir".

Kouzuki, with seriousness on his face, says, "Let's go back there, Esha." Esha says, "Yeah, sir, in 3..2..1..0". Then he teleports back to Mount Fuji, and Kouzuki starts looking for Ariel around with his suit also but can't.

Then he knees down and starts feeling guilty about why he left her alone without any drone to watch her. It feels like crying at any time, but it is interpreted by Esha saying, "Sorry for meddling in your sadness, but the tracker is working, sir, but there is a problem also, sir".

Kouzuki ask a little aggressively," What is it? Esha just say it to me."

Esha replied, "It's an interplanetary and dimensional problem to travel, and it's still in progress." Kouzuki then calmed himself down and said, "It's no problem. Just send unit 2 and project phantom Esha."

Esha replied," But sir, the projected phantom is not done with testing, sir, and environmental conditions; we still don't know about it. "

Kouzuki smirks and says with a smile," It's not a problem, Esha. Just send Unit 2 and Project Phantom to me; I will just test them now. "

Esha replied," Okay, sir, I'm initiating now the teleportation of unit gen - 2 and project phantom transducer, and sir, may you please remove the current unit gen-7? "

Kouzuki says," Okay ". Then, he removes the armour suit, and then the suit disappears after he removes it.

The Unit Gen - 2 appears with a Project Phantom transducer in the suit's right hand attached. The suit was a mix of modern technology and ninja-type clothing; it was also modified to carry oxygen somewhere in a suit for difficult terrains and had a katana-like Morden sword on his back. Colour in green and black to blend in with nature and its surroundings, and it has a built-in colour blending system in it.*

He goes and wears the suit, the suit opens up and he goes inside in it.

Kouzuki says before he plans to test the project phantom " Can you repair the destroyed portal of the lab and if it doesn't work and particles gets separated just search for my particles and just send the dummy that I built to live my life for just in case if it's happens". Esha reply "yes sir, the preparation is now done. Good luck sir."

Kouzuki takes deep breaths in and out, then keeps himself steady and taps on the buttons to set up the location of that monster, then taps on the main button.

Then, in an instant, he disappears from the Mount Fuji location, and we see that he is travelling, but he is breaking apart into pieces, then combining, then gets slashed and combines again in weird surroundings like a rainbow but in waves. He tries to move around but can't, and suddenly he finds himself somewhere else, and then he moves around to see that he is in some kind of castle hallway which is quite big for a normal human.

There is a room door near him. Kouzuki suddenly hears the door opening, so he charges up, thrusts in quietly, and Flys to the ceiling of the hallway and hides in the ceiling by activating the blend in the surrounding mode of the suit. The monster comes out from the room dressed like a soldier and walks out while talking in his armband-like device with a hologram.

He tells the details that whom they had captured is from the same species as the target and she isn't that woman that they were searching for and in last he says captain to the monster he is talking to.

The captain replies, "We know that, and you don't need to tell me; you are just a low-ranked soldier. Just do what you have been told, and you are just in this army because of your fighting skills. Just remember that."

The monster replies by saluting, "Yes, captain, I'm fully aware". The captain says to his response "good as you know that it's good for our army of the louzord".

Then the captain adds more and says, "Just kill her and report it back and I'm going to resort now, so I finish the work".

Monster replies with a salute again, "Yes sir". Then the the hologram disappears which means the communication ends then the monster starts abusing about Something.

It was all translated by kouzuki suits translator in it. The monster goes inside the room to complete some task that he left and closes the door. Kouzuki then deactivated the bend mode and lowered his thruster to get back to the floor slowly and land. As he lands safely, he tries to talk to his Esha (A.I.), and it immediately connects. Esha's voice comes saying, "Sir, it's been connected now by the transducer". The connection was still weak, but it could work on another planet because it was connected to an old Gen suit, which was later modified for this stuff.

Kouzuki immediately asks Esha, " I want the 3d map of this, wherever I'm now".

Esha replies, "Okay, sir, please deploy the mini-drones from the box of your waist."

Kouzuki just reply with " okay Esha".

He then pulls out a box-like device from his waist then spins the top part. Then, a lot of mini drones, like a fly in almost millions, spread across the castle to make a map in 3d.

Then Kouzuki lifts his hand; he sees that a map is forming in his digital armband after a few minutes. It was done, then Kouzuki asks Esha," So where is the location of Ariel currently, Esha?."

Esha replies, "Yes, sir, I found the location; it's the red dot on the map, and it is also beneath you, where you stand just 3 floors down in a basement-like place".

Kouzuki suprises from location "what the hell! I'm in the right location, so how much time will it take me to get there, Esha?."

Esha answers, "Sir, it will take around 10-20 mins to get down there without any destruction, and with destruction, it will be just 1-2 minutes".

Kouzuki smiles a little and says, "Okay, charge up the katana, and we will take the shortest one, then Esha".

Then the katana *saya(cover of katana) on his back starts glowing up like it is being charged up like a battery. After a minute, it is completed, so Kouzuki takes out his katana from its saya and takes a stance to cut and then the floor, in an instant, gets cut.

Then a square appears by the instant cut, and then the floor starts falling down.

After the floor completely falls down, then, he jumps down with his thruster on and lands safely. It was a little dark so, he pulls out a device to light up the room. Then He sees that Ariel is strapped on a chair-like thing. So Kouzuki, in a hurry, goes to Ariel and asks her, "Are you okay, Ariel?". Shaking her through her shoulders, she wakes up and says, "Where are we, kouzuki, and why I'm strapped to this weird chair?".

Kouzuki says in a hurry trying to free up Ariel, and when he unstraps her, he says, " I don't think it's the right time to talk about it; let's go for now". Then grabs her hand to take her away, but out of nowhere, a grenade comes. It flashes, and they both get blinded for a minute. Then another comes, and this time, they both get blasted away by the sonic grenade.

Kouzuki, somehow with his suit armour, helps Ariel not to get thrown away far and get hurt, but unfortunately, Ariel loses consciousness again. So Kouzuki puts her down near a safe place where he landed, and then the monster comes from the room and lands on the same rumbles floor, when he sees the monster, he understands who had thrown the grenade.

So He looks at the monster's eyes, and the monster also sees back. The monster comes rushing at him, and in an instant, a big hammer appears. Kouzuki doesn't know how to react to it, but his body moves without him knowing and blocks his big hammer with his katana.

Even Kouzuki is surprised by his own reflex and thinks how did he do it?

After it was blocked, kouzuki, the monster backed a few steps down and with his surprise face. He says, "A mere human blocked my big hammer attack, what a funny thing! Nobody has ever blocked my attack except one woman whom I respect and the first one to defeat me in battle. When she defeated me, she told me about why she was fighting; she said we don't just fight for resources or else, we fight for what's good left in the universe and bring peace to other dimensions and planets across the universe, and after hearing that much I lost consciousness.

I know that you can't understand it, but it is how it should be, and just so you know,w, I'm going to kill you. "

Kouzuki, with a little confused face, says to the monster," Sorry sir, but I hear it all, and I can understand it all ".* it was being translated by his suit translator and his words to the monster also.

Monster, a little bit surprised, says," Ohh, you can understand me, okay, just so you know, before we start, I'm sure I'm going to kill you properly ". Then the monster puts a serious face.

After he says it, they both rush toward each other and clash with each other with their weapons.
