Chapter 25 - Gravity Training

When we got home, Lettu went to his room to have a nap and Launch instantly went looking for the servants, most of whom were still in my summoning space.

"Summon" I whispered, as I summoned the anime character servants around the house, I figured out how to summon my summons to different places than directly in front of me a couple years ago.

"Huh, what did you say?" Launch asked.

"Nothing, I was just humming a tune I heard a while ago" I said quickly.

"Okay, so... where's that... Gravity Chamber thing?" Launch asked.

"Oh! It's over here!" I said, as I walked to the garage that Edward was working in.

"Whoa! What's that?" Launch asked, as she looked at what Edward was working on. A robot to help with Earth's defence that Edward and Dr Briefs have been working on.

"Oh! Hey boss and... um... uh... I'm sorry, I don't know your name" Edward said with a friendly grin.

"Oh, sorry about that. I'm Launch" Launch said, as she introduced herself.

"Okay, well I'm Edward Elric and, to answer your question. This is the first iteration of the defence robot that I've been working on with Dr Briefs, it's to defend against any intergalactic threats..." Edward said with a grin.

"Okay, but why's it called a defence robot? It's not the... best name" Launch said.

"Well, we're sort of working on the name... and it's just a prototype for the enhanced version of the older models that we have in the back... some of them are being used by Lelouch and Hawkeye for practice and L's trying to put some knowledge of tactics in them... which is going pretty well, soon enough we'll have an army of robots with these guys leading them in the defence of earth" Edward said with a grin.

"Okay, good work Edward. Now, Launch didn't you want to see the Gravity Chamber? Because it's over here" I asked, as I walked toward the Gravity Chamber.

"Oh! Right, let's go. Goodbye Mr Edward!" Launch said with a grin as she followed me to the Gravity Chamber.

We walked in, to see that Rukia was already in there training with her zanpakuto.

"Who's that?" Launch asked in a whisper.

"Rukia, one of my bodyguards, she's nice... you'd like her" I whispered back.

"Okay, I'll go introduce myself... hi there! I'm Launch!" Launch said, introducing herself to the surprised Rukia.

"Gah! I didn't know you two were there... I'm Rukia Kuchiki! Master Tomant's bodyguard!" Rukia said with a grin as she walked out of the Gravity Chamber and held out her hand for a handshake.

"Okay... why are you using a katana? Isn't a gun more useful?" Launch asked, as she shook Rukia's hand.

"Oh this? This is my zanpakuto, we're practically inseparable!" Rukia said with a large grin.

"Oh... okay" Launch said, slightly confused.

"Well, anyway... Rukia, could you please excuse us?" I asked.

"Of course master" Rukia said, as she disappeared into thin air.

"Huh?" Launch asked, as she looked around, hoping to find where she went.

"It's alright Launch... now, let me show you what the Gravity Chamber does... 2x earths gravity" I said, and the Gravity Chamber went from 5x earths gravity to 2x earths gravity, decreasing the gravity by around 300% allowing normal people to go inside without having their bones broken almost instantaneously.

"Now, let us train" I said with a smile, as I led Launch into the Gravity Chamber.

'Wow! The gravity is a lot... heavier' Launch thought, as she walked in with Tomant to experience the most gruelling exercise of her life, training with Tomant.
