Elated Cry

"From a young age, we were told that we are blessed Knights that can save our people from the abominable Swarm. There were countless heroes who perished or still alive somewhere, but there was once who gave hope with a warm and loud laughter that drove away a large portion of the enemies, but that wasn't enough."

Scenes based on how they were trained until they first soared the skies after transforming to don the Armors,

"Upon his sacrifice, through the Empress grace, he blessed the next generation such as us with the power to wield divine flames, enhanced perception and reflexes. Although we are still young, that won't be a hindrance, there are Towering Armors modelled also as a tribute to remember his valiant form that we can wear to bravely face the abominable enemies... We just had to obey..."

Scenes of experiencing the glory of purging the pests, and losing brothers and sisters in arms, intensely,

"We were told how great he was, but he must be lonely to be able to face a lot of them alone, if only there were more who could fervently keep their stand proudly, and soar to light the dreaded sky ablaze, but they said they are forced to hold their grudges and hope dearly.

These pests still linger outside, our once brave people have to hide and prepare, but then our Empress declared, that we are chosen to honour a Legacy...

Whichever is true to what they taught us... What else can I do, right now The Empress punished(?) me after delivering the final blow to the enemy while they, hics, would he be angry if he's still with us?"

A girl cried her heart out as she looked helplessly unto someone,

A much towering figure with mangled crimson flesh in between the armor stands with the helm resembling the Molten Knights drooping down, and his extended left arm caressing the container to which a girl was inside, his remaining gold eye runs down what seems to be golden tears that melted through the helm replies in a coarse and grumpy voice): "Yes he would, but if at least, you can leave this graveyard... And live on... so save your tears, you might as well be having a bad dream."

"But Sir, I-- What does dream mean?"

("It's when you experience another world when you're unconscious.", a static feminine voice replied only to the girl.

"Your Highness I--", thus the girl was denied furthermore.

"--I'm sorry, that only I survived..."

He carefully carried a large container to which a girl donning an Armor was condemned inside, then gently hurled it away, a shaky rising coarse voice followed: "Titania... you have not just betrayed me, although I was expecting it, but your people, especially those children, and only that girl remained while others are still clinging to a lie out there!"

A static feminine voice replies: "The sacrifices made had to, but not this end---"

??????: "Not... even... a proper apology?"

Titania: "I revived you ??????, please--

??????: "Can't either of us be with her?"

Titania: "--You following after her would remain a threat, you know that very well don't you."

??????: "I was suddenly thrown into here, I fought believing I'll relieve my frustration against those bugs. I was surprised I am still given a chance to save, scoring down until big shots who led those pests to my wit's end, then this is the outcome for trusting you a puppet Empress to usurp those senile geezers and hags?!

So in the end, you pulled me out of my slumber, stitching me back, from butchering me helpless with the promise to cure my wit's end or be a Sacrifice to pave a Legacy to pesticide. Titania, you better beg me properly how I should clean up your mess, and give your sinking withered garden a funeral."

Titania: "I, a ruthless mechanical puppet who usurped those senile apes, arrogantly acclaimed to know better, lusted a hopeless fiend to his demise, and deceived my children with him costing the lives of the people left behind to birth what I can't. I indifferently ruled them to burn their lives and those pests, am humiliated to have nothing to rule. I regretfully beg you, please erase these disgraces, so our remaining child, that we don't deserve to parent can just worry about outliving her cruel destiny..."

??????: *Coarse cold chuckles into laughter, "Titania, DAMN YOU." A chuckle continues, rising into a loud melancholic roar.

The container of the cemented girl, floats away from countless debris, and dismembered limbs, was pushed further by warm winds, and an intensifying Supernova...

A mechanical male voice commented, "Chivalric Code Update Received: Accompany, & Sustain AR-26710 to live longer, and happy? Standing by Cast-On. Instability detected: injecting tranquilizer. Autopilot would cease everytime she wakes again from this journey, Glory be to {Redacted}, Damned Aeons, we don't deserve this, Sister...".

As the Supernova ceases, an eerie laughter echoes, followed by mangled multiple voices.

???: ["What a spectacular Show, a great and dangerous vessel! What an interesting Mask too, for he who brought valor to a petty attempt to purge some bugs. May I ask, how did you survive one of the End's Daughter?]

Kalpas: "Hahahaha, I must be hearing some shit--",

???: ["Oh please, please, please dear Sir, save your fireworks for now. Don't you want some humor to calm down? I don't mean to spoil the mood If you didn't like my laughter just then, I can't help it, I'm sure you know, how we just want to laugh it off here and there~"],

*grunts* "By the End's Daughter... do you mean a Herrscher?",

???: ["Hmhm~ She must be arrogant, and terribly annoying no? Those Daughters would send some creepy Cocoon to tempt such hopeless victims with crazy authorities to go mad, and spread the tragedy more, I really hate them, you see, I just want to have fun, and spread the joy for everyone~ I must say I'm impressed, *giggles* but even I was not sure how I can ease those fools against the bugs, but YOU ARE LIT, *chuckles*. You see, it isn't often that I get to hire Great Actors, although you look so grumpy, I can help you with that."] 

Titania: *static* ["I'm, still here...Kal--"]

???: ["Oh wow, an Intellitron who was just about to meet Nihility, Where could you be? Well if it's nothing then it must not be important. Anyway, don't you want something refreshing?]

*flicks*

The dread scenery of countless floating dismembered limbs was replaced with a serene room, scattered props for circus and 2 cushioned stools.

???: ["TaDa~ Now-now my dear guest, this is a very important interview, you can suit yourself however you want, but we need to have some agreement."]

Kalpas: *SIGHS* "I'm afraid I'm not willing to run anyone's errand."

???: ["If there's anyone to fear here, there should be none dear guest... *giggles* Don't you find it satisfying that when someone is anticipating their plans all go too well, then BAM! Oh well... *anxious laughter* You see dear guest, there's a terrible Organization who leeches on some other Great Fool, we call that Organization the Interastral Peace Corporation, what a very ambitious name ain't it? You're a great catch, *pfft* I found it funny that I got you before Nanook could, or else you would be wasted there~ As I told you, although I've been stalling and yapping a lot as I'm doing now, get it? Anyways, it is not so often I can hire Great Actors, Those Leading the IPC would have done more terrible unlike your Scary Space Pirates or a Wasted Empire."]

Kalpas: "You want me to mess with them?"

???: "Oh I would loved it! I'm sure you would do better than where you were from, Oh I almost forgot, that I have not properly introduced myself. You can call me Aha, I can Bless you with an appropriate Joy to ease up your anger issues, although you'd make a great Villain, I'm sure you'll love being a proper Vigilante~ *giggles* I just learned that you prefer wearing this scary Mask, what a coincidence, I love Every kind of Masks! This one have some Regal Aesthetic to it too~"

As the Clown gesture to give the mask in a teasing manner. Kalpas who have not yet seated on the stool since being invited in the strange room, gazes down indifferently.

["Sheesh you're no fun, if I take this beauty's form, would you take me seriously?" *giggles*], As mentioned, Aha shapeshifted into a curvaceous green flowy haired slit eyed woman wearing a veil, dark clawed gloves, and a questionable attire for a nun. (Resembling Aponia's outfit and body with Mobius proportioned face.) 

As he met a combination of them, the temperature and the pressure of the room intensifies, and his grunts voices out anger and disgust. While the alluring disguised figure of Aha gazes mockingly.

["Now Kalpas, I won't bother disciplining you, if you can do that on your own, then, maybe we can discuss how you can gain a better spotlight, such as educating you with better literacy; the know-hows in the Realms of those who knows various Paths, then we can proceed about meeting the poor twins named Jim Hulk and Jim Hall, Oh! You in a brawl against IPC's Diamond would definitely be a spectacle! Then maybe some other interesting crash party, hm?"]

Within the strange room, an Infernal roars, with the explosions shifting into sounds of a rubber duckie's squeaks. Aha was invulnerable from any violent attempts as THEY dote and pamper the Infernal to his exhaustion and THEIR gentle tone of nagging, Guilt-tripping him into fearing(controlling) his impulsive violent outbursts(power), thus the fiend became human once more. Unable to not spectate or forget various scenarios of tragedies and consequences, and convincing him how he could be a better and humorous(Masked Fool) gentleman(Mourning Actor). Aha personally grant(bless) Kalpas the therapy(training) he needed, lasting for a very long time until the present Charmony Festival, reaping(shedding) a bountiful harvest(tears) for the foundation of Divinity(Elation) from mending an irredeemable fiend into another tame honey badger, alongside other antics.

["Congratulations Kalpas(Shinji)!~ Are you now ready to spread joy?"] *applause*

"Please stop..."

["Say, do you hate me?"],

In a defeated tone he reply with tears running down on his cheeks: "No..."

["Do you recognize whose face am I wearing?"],

"It's just you Aha.",

["So what would you do once you finally step out of this room?"]

"I'll Save Them.", Aha dotingly cheered as he left, 6 minutes of silence passed then a mangled hysterical laughter lasted 6 hours. A glass jar containing a small withering Bodhi Leaf pops out floating in front of its face(mask).

["I suppose you're his old friend."] 

??: "What... do... you... even... want... me... to... do...?"

["Should I brew a tea, or do you want to owe me a favor?"]

[Err-- Too Long Didn't Read:

This is COPE-Fiction about how Kalpas can persist from Honkai Impact 3rd 50k yrs of its Previous Era to when Welt Yang is at Penacony with the Astral Express on Honkai Star Rail]:

* Chapter 1 - "The Madman Thought Of Dearly Before Anew Foreign Hell":

At the Moon, Kalpas was an Elite superhuman Berserker, alongside his remaining brother and sister in arms, they fought a Floating Woman at the Moon who held various Authorities to reset the World. He was persistent and tenacious despite being swatted away like a fly around, so to ease up the trouble, when he perform another lunge, he instead was thrown to another world by a portal, leaving an impression of deleting him into nothingness to lower the morale. 

Exhausted, the scenery quickly changed to another battlefield with gigantic bugs flying around, and wrecking sci-fi debris as they each hunt down people. He saw another battered man about to be devoured by a big bug.

* Chapter 2 - "A lot of flies keep buzzing and I hated it":

As a big bug was about to devour another helpless man, he saved him, by dashing through the bug, and punching it, throw away the helpless man to another big bug as a bait, lunge faster with a dismembered bug faster when the bait was about to got bite, rip and tear until it's done. Oh suddenly another big bug got to munch on his head, but it won't cave in so he used flamethrower to fry its innards through the big bug's esophagus, it was very effective, then mukbang rip and tear until it's done.

The traumatized bait tried to cope, so when asked where is this place, he volunteered as a guide.

* Chapter 3 - "Light From afar":

The bait called the place they were at was among the Fleets of Glamoth, but they were tired. The Madman learned how the big bug was so nutritious, so he cooked. It was very effective that they healed, the bait confessed he was a fallen frontline commander, and owe the madman for saving him. The Madman (Kalpas) commanded the Redeeming Knight for a spar to test his skills, he was better than average, thanks to what he cooked.

They razed through each big bugs, trying to look for survivors, then they met another Lost Cause of a Man, who used to be one of the soldiers under the Redeeming Knight. Kalpas noticed the Lost Cause smelled so foul so he attacked him, the Lost Cause admit he was a lost cause, he survived by allying with the Bigger Big Bugs' infamy, after mutating by consuming a piece of dead uncooked big bug flesh.

The Lost cause was also Crazy Gory with Blood Bending and inviting more Big Bugs, the Former Bait now Redeeming Knight wasn't just spectating and was able to follow up exchanges, but when he was thrown away another time, he noticed survivors so he prioritized them. Thanks to that, Kalpas had to get more serious by Opening his Eight Gates and clicking his Wingless Devil Trigger, that he Amped himself to cause a Meltdown sameway Gojira slain Gidorah from King of the Monsters. He was down afterwards but that wasn't the end. Some Drones picked him up, to safety (?), while Former Bait is out there doing his very best.

* Chapter 4 - "Unwelcomed; Idol":

Kalpas woken up in an Experimental Basement by a robotic feminine voice(Cortana?), alongside other sci-fi doctors, and scientists. Another sci-fi-doc called it (Cortna?) Empress, they were fanboying him for science, until they noticed him breaking out nonchalantly, they could have guide him to exit properly but he just walked through a wall then cover it back as Kalpas & the Holographic Empress exchanged a stern banter, which is supposed to be a negotiation for him to run them an errand(Pesticide).

He woke up and chose violence until he noticed himself lagging from wearing a sci-fi armor atop his Active Honkai Reaction Form made of the state of the art cutting edge dead-big-bug-carcass-armor(prototype-motion-capture), while liberating the damned ship with fervent mano-mano pesticide.

* Chapter 5 - "It's not SAM-over":

I tried to wrote a COPE Fiction anticipating Honkai Star Rails 2.0 - 2.1 narrative, and failed successfully.

I was among who believed, SAM having an AI isn't bad for Firefly's character.

* Chapter 6 - "Elated Cry":

I wrote a fan-fic scenario for anticipating Firefly's Myriad Celestia Trailer because "Kyoden: A Cleave Across the Transient World" was really impressive, but I add more narrative, besides how she was educated, fought, and survive, before waking up and joining the Stellaron Hunters. 

She was among the test tube babies, cause sc-fi, and war, I believe, she have Pyrokinesis to fuel and activate SAM, but it is too spontaneous that it is intended for her to only wield it safely with the armor on. But without that she's augmented since birth to be a superhuman. Her alongside her countless siblings and clones have Kalpas, a Swarm Bug, and their Glamothian Human D.N.A, Titania claim herself to be the cruel indifferent mother. The design of SAMuel Iron Cavalry Units were tribute to Kalpas' fiery form that was sugarcoated, and strictly refined in preference to Glamoth.

They fought a cruel war, a girl later to be known as Firefly confessed that she was imprisoned as a punishment for being the only other surviving Cavalry Knight on her unit, or so she was thought to believe as she talked to an odd Cavalry Knight later to be known as the revived Kalpas by Titania. 

Titania revived Kalpas after deceiving him to go into the basement lab to either cure his anger issues or be a nutrition to a legacy of attrition, an exaggerated fervent pesticide. Titania usurped rulership from being a puppet ruler to continue the attrition, winning the war, but losing their home. He likely exhausted himself alone for taking down countless bigger big bugs and their Leaders(Emanator of Propagation) that gave some time for Glamoth to manufacture their Cavalry Units (Mechs) and Educate(experiment) the Knights(Children).

She confessed to him her sins, and begged him to clean up the mess. This time, his Self Nuke was stronger than ever that he might as well contend to Aeonhood, and he might also have been the one who personally saved Firefly. They send their remaining daughter to an escape pod and while he and surprisingly Titania was left also still alive, they heard an eerie laughter. 

Aha personally kidnapped Kalpas, Titania was a bonus, not sure what to do with her yet. THEY thought it would be fun to convince and get THEMSELVES a very strong and reliable stuntman instead of being likely gazed and recruited by Nanook or being casted into IX's Shadow, Mythus thought IT could rule Misinfo but this time Aha won the race for Peak TrolloLOLsZ.

Kalpas finally got to have therapy with Aha transforming into a combination of the 2 woman he despises the most (Mobius's head on Aponia's body; proportionally) counseling(brainwashing), and nursing(healing) him kindly, while also watching a movie marathon (guilt-tripping about any kind of tragedies so he could empathize and cry until there's nothing left, or how he should hate the IPC, that he can be a better hero, and distinguished gentleman), very wholesome(traumatizing) as he was unable to harm HER, or escape until his exhaustion. But hey he was Elated and Healed, Aha succeeded in personally pampering him, while multitasking on other antics. (Maybe Aha was the best Waifu after all, Peak Vanilla and Diabetic Fluff, surely) 

After Aha allowed Kalpas to left and do HER favor willingly, THEY then finally let out a great laugh in a long while as a glass jar containing a withering Bodhi Leaf, calling it as one of Kalpas' old friend was summoned, THEY added whether to brew tea, or be owed another favor, with whatever more antics is being planned; I can't cook this further.
