Chapter 3 - deployed

in a fit of rage I began punching the crap out of a virtual opponent, he walked up to me and insulted me, now I know it was childish but I just beat him up he called me names and I went off.

that was the hand to hand battle, the second round was to see how complex my fighting skill was I was to display moves, i watched two people on a holovid do.

I had prior fighting experience in four martial arts weakly but enough to follow the forms shown.

the third round I was given a weapon and attacked by a Spartan pirate, I had a small dagger which I was prompted to fight I asked for a bigger weapon and was given a longer dagger.

flickering I spun it in my hand and began an assault on him missing a few times I got nickedand he stabbed me in the arm I got him in his eye he screamed argh then fell to the floor dead.

then round four came, it was two people and I had a Lance like a horses riders lance it was long and had a trigger on its handle.

thinking about it's use I pointed the tip at pirate one and pulled it the whole tip of the lance fired off Peircing his leg swinging it to the right harshly the spear tip was attached by a cord it slipped backwards like reeling in a fish the tip had two blades facing backwards making a triangle with both blade and the spear tip.

it caught the leg of the other pirate and cut it clean off I walked up too both and stabbed them after the tip was fully retracted.

the round ended and five began four men came at me and I was given a giant dual sided scythe it had a purple blade made of some type of energy, it also had a shorter metal blade I am 5'11 and this scythe is like 6'5!

I have no time for the guy to move in my heart I knew this weapon well grabbing a the center I spun it and detached them making two, one meter long Scythes a purple energy blade and a metal blade I chuckled the.

through the purple bladed scythe it shimmered and the blade grew two times its size two men died and one one was nicked but managed to not die the fourth dodged nimbly.

I commanded the purple energy blade to return mentally and it truely came back I felt a slight pull and the green kinetics bar went down some herd a ping as it went totally threw the man I nicked cutting him in half from where he was sitting and i realized it was coming way to fast the man dodged again it continued towards me he ran behind it as I put my hand on out trying to will it too stop!

it continued on trying to think in my panic I grabbed the second scythe and side stepped the blade catching it with the other one it made a whirlwind behind me throwing me forward I don't know where the wind came from though?

on that path of being pushed forward I was able to grab the second Scythe with the flow of it then use the propelled momentum to slide across the floor getting way to close to the guys blade as he swung down at my head.

his hit it connected to the side of my head bouncing off

into my arm.

leaving a deep wounds in both my skin and pride.

my bladed landed in this throat and chest with my last bit of consciousness I made the purple blade extend, it expanded through his neck making his head roll to the floor with a thud my mind went blank.

I don't know how long later I felt slapping on my face then I felt a solid punch waking me up to see Dom laughing evily, he spoke very soft words.

"you have one more test to complete please get up, the last test is optional now is time for you to make that option.

accept or deny?"

silver eyes Dom for a few seconds then spoke, 'accept'.

Dom's eyes grew bright and silver heard, " due to the nature of the test you will not remember the contents, please do not fear any repercussions, rank and rewards given upon succession or failure.

you and humanities time will not be wasted."

silver said as he was losing sight and sound, " this is bad."

...

four hours later.

waking up groggy tequilla began to open his eyes seeing, hearing, and smelling the surrounding it was damp and he felt like he was drowning. when everything returned he found himself inside of a take full of a viscous liquid.

after ten minutes of panic and angst, he finally began to calm down he realized he was in a test tube, he was also clearly still in the system.

he had hoped at the very least he saw a man walk by and eye him he waved then walked away.

there was peace for a few seconds he let out a mental sigh then three screens came into his view.

+S1, *warning* (you have chosen to start with the most with the difficult setting)

{class has been changed too[rouge taming pilot]

+ S2, you have been taken by a mad scientist named Fiden, he was done wild experimental procedure.

there is now a bio-ship connected to you through genetics.

you have been genetically changed you are now 1/4th of a pilot race called penguinary, trait changes include

(flight control){rank O} [ allows the user to become familiar with any ship type.]

= intermediate adaption {rank R} plus one {rank P} =

you currently have three options•

option one° escape and become a rouge experimental subject. *warning* will be prejudiced for being genetically modified. (must escape with ship)

option two° do nothing.

see where that gets you.

you get a free ship and some cool abilities.

option three° kill one yourself and start a new in a slightly worse way.

*warning* doing this will make the scientist mad and he is not one to waste experiments, he will recycle you and use you in multiple experimental procedures.

(please choose wisely)+

+S3, [notice for humanity] thanks to someone's efforts in completing the specialist test and all other tests with (rank M) which is five ranks higher then humanities rank (rank Q) humanity has gained three rewards thanks to this valiant soul.

a light flashed and futuristic door slid open the room was eerily quite as a pasty cackling lanky black haired man with glasses and a lab coat walked into the room he gestured to something and music began to play as he lay down on the table after having shoved everything off of it he picked up a tablet and proceeded to speak.

with an original from Earth playing (bloodstone [natural high™] (A/N): I do not own the song just listen to it though. it is a good song.

Silver sat and thought about his plan the entire time he figured he had two choices break free or go with it.

as he was not able to get free he decided to go with it

that's when he heard the scientist speak.

boy do you realize where you are, have you gotten your faculties back a simple nod will suffice? fiden said in a sing song tone.

not able to do much else silver nodded yes then fiden spoke.

yes too what knowing where you are?

or you've gotten your faculties back?

a simple one or two on your hand will suffice.

silver held up a two, and nodded.

I see then may I ask if you resent me for kidnapping and experimenting on you?

I mean I took you from Earths system start, so you are in the virtual world. not the real one although I do know where you are.

if I have to get you in real life I am willingly fiden said while looking distant.

with a quick thought silver thought that he really had no ill will towards him, if so he would have nothing but bettered the start of his adventurous tale.

with a vigerous nod No silver smiled and touched two fingers together at the tip.

fiden's eyes widened then he spoke with a shy coughing.

that is certainly not what I thought would happen, I expected some anger, resentment, maybe even a few suicide attempts.

never have I been met with glee nor, excitement at least not enough to say one feels connected!?

pressing a few buttons on the tablet he had the liquid in silver's tube drain and open the glass seemingly disappeared and out of curiosity silver touched towards it.

that is like the attoanites field in the gel it can go from solid state to gas and back.

curious aren't you boy? fiden spoke vividly yet shallow

£=€°€°^¢^°¢°¢^¢^¢°¢=£^€€¥££. silver spoke but the language was not that of Earth he had no clue why that came out he tried to think of what he wanted to say.

trying again the voice was his own but in a language he had no clue where it came from.

don't stress I haven't finished the experiment yet, there is much more to do but do not worry I can understand you just fine fiden chuckled causing silver to feel a bit leftover.

picking up on the feeling in the room fiden spoke.

you are now my child as a success since I have rebirthed some of the genes contained in you, nor would I leave you half done or alone!

I take pride in my work and even more so, as i have found someone fond of what I have done.

you were not disgusted and you were genuinely honest.

work with me and not only will I make you a masterful person, I will make you my apprentice I will use you yes to completely finish I will also eventually want to go through with the experimental tests on my own this isn't for just you but for me as well.

I have spent a long time with thousands of failures being hated and criminalized, finally I have found you so what do you say boy!?

fiden had a tear in his eyes as he spoke so passionately about this his eyes were a full white with grey dots as irrises he blinked and rubbed the tear out of his eyes looking at silver.

silver thought and he heard a small piece of glass break which was the screen in his mind it was replaced with another that said.

+ the original goal to escape has been replaced their is new options.

Option one° become fiden fin's apprentice and experiment, *warning* you may become a homunculus after awakening more than one bloodline.

*warning* class changes will be

[ rouge scientist tamer pilot] subject to change during experimental changes.

*warning* you must remember you adapt much easier, yet must not forget one can still lose there path.

option two° deny fiden fin's request and become just a homunculus { trust will always remain nuetral}

*warning* do to inability to trust you fiden may with hold better things for the next experimental tests.

*warning* fiden will implant a control switch and a kill switch due to lack of trust.

option three° make fiden a deal if you are unsatisfied.

*warning* this option is dependent on you rewards and repercussions vary on you.

*warning* rouge skill training [ gamble] [ negotiate] as these are passive skills they do not appear but the application works in any setting.

just gamble or negotiate your way out.+

with that silver began to formulate then after a few seconds of silence he began to speak.

Fiden Right? I'm tequilla James Dee Rico, silver is my moniker. I would like to take a gamble on you so, I believe you and trust you fully since you can help me more than I can even understand!

my negotiation price is "make an empire with me, let's be in this till the end as equals ."

I wanted a cool friend and you are it I accept being your apprentice, and experiment.

although let's take it further will you help me build a future, we will make strong bonds as we go what do you say?

fiden looked at silver with shock he had nothing to say, the young man in front of him had stunned him speach less.

fiden began to cry as she realized her biggest fear was always being lonely and the words the boy in front of her drew her in making up her mind fiden smeared a tear and spoke!

well then I guess we should get to know each other better, I agree to the terms.

with that silver went to shake the hand of fiden in front of him that's when he heard a loud hissing making him spin around.

to his honest suprise what came was even more shocking then waking up in a test tube, with a shiver he stared intently at the tube draining.
