The Next Day.
Cecilia Alcott was currently looking around the remains of MI5 HQ. She was looking for any signs of Seth. Cecilia spent the whole day looking, she would try again tomorrow, but in a few days she would have to return to I.S. Academy.
Meanwhile.
"What the fuck do you mean you lost Seth?!" Chris said as he was being held back by a person.
"Calm down. We're looking." General Shepherd said.
"Why the hell is it taking so long?" Natasha said. She was beyond piss. Natasha was about to launch in her I.S. and search on her own, but she was still injured. The [Silver Gospel] was also out of commission.
"Something came up. We've had to divert most of my men to something else."
"What the fuck is so important, that you can spare any men to look for Seth!?"
"I'm trying to stop a war." Natasha and Chris were stunned at his words.
"What's going on?" Chris asked.
"Some group in Iraq is causing an uprising. The whole state gone to shit."
"But that doesn't-"
"Sir, you need to see this." A man said behind shepherd.
"This better be good son, or I'l-" shepherd couldn't believe was he was seeing. On the screen a news station was transmitting a live feed. The newscaster began to speak.
"I'm here in Baghdad, were a coup had just finish. The coup started ten minutes ago, and the Iraqi government has surrendered unconditionally. The reason for this is the new group, that started the coup, used over 30 I.S units. They seem like the American [B.L.A.Z.E.] model. More when information becomes available."
"God fucking dammit!" Shepherd slammed his fist on the wall.
"Shit, they're gonna blame us." Chris said. The United States would seem like they armed the coup. They were using 'their' model.
"I'll update you on Seth, once any information is known. Just leave me. I need a drink." Shepherd knew he had a shit storm on his hands.
Unknown Location.
"Seth wake up. Come on Seth. Open your eyes." Blaze yelled inside Seth's mind. Seth slowly began to open his eyes. Seth saw that he was currently inside of some kind of liquid.
"The hell, where am I?" Seth tried to remember how he ended up here. It came back to him instantly.
Flashback.
"You're mine!" Seth yelled as he was about to stab the English prototype with his energy blades.. M duck down, but she was unable to avoid the attack. Her helmet was destroyed, yet her head remained undamaged.
"Madoka?" Seth said. Madoka's had a shocked expression on her face.
"How the hell do you know who I am?" She spat out. Seth undid [B.L.A.Z.E.] to show his face.
"Because I'm your brother." Seth said.
"Ichika, but how? You were reported dead."
"Madoka, it doesn't have to be like this, you can come with me. I could work out a deal. We don't have to be enemies." Seth said as he held out hand. Seth didn't notice the person behind him. The woman put Seth in a sleeper hold. Seth tried to move, but he couldn't. Soon ever him out.
Flashback end.
"Dammit, I was careless."
"Seth it's fine, we'll find a way out of here. Seth someone's coming." Seth saw a door open. A man in a white lab coat entered.
"Ah, Ichika Orimura you're awake. I'm sorry, you prefer to go by Seth Fairs now, don't you." Seth/Ichika glared at the man. Said man was looking at a computer screen.
"Blood pressure rising. Heart rate rising. Breathing intensifying. Testosterone levels raising. Seth you're mad aren't you." Seth was shocked. They could measure the chemicals in his system and instantly. The man continued to read the screen.
"Alright it's progressing very well. No signs of rejection. Seth you're making us very pleased."
"What the hell are they talking about?" Seth thought. He tried to move, but his body wouldn't respond. The only door in the room slid open again and a new man entered. Seth eyes widen with shock. The man was wearing all black and had blond hair, that was combed back. Seth knew who it was.
"Albert Wesker! That impossible. Chris killed him in 09. There's no way he's alive." Seth yelled in his mind.
"Doctor, how is the boy coming along?" Wesker asked.
"Much better than I expected sir. He could be ready for test in about three days, if the virus keeps integrating at this rate." Seth took note of what the man said.
"Virus?! Oh my god, what the fuck did they put inside me?!" Seth during his training in the BSAA, had to read on B.O.W's and the several viruses umbrella made. Wesker walked up to the tube and placed his hand on the glass.
"Don't worry boy. We are just removing the errors in your DNA. You should feel honor. You will be the first of the new genesis of man. Doctor I want [F.L.A.M.E.] ready in 60 hours."
"I understand sir. Now Seth its time for bed." The doctor pressed several buttons on the computer's keyboard. Seth began to feel weak.
"Shit, sleeping gases." Seth thought before he blacked out.
Several days later.
Chifuyu Orimura was currently pissed. Why? She had been looking for Seth, but no one had seen him in four days. She had called the five girls into a room, Cecilia had just returned the night before.
"Alright tell me when was the last time you saw Seth." Chifuyu ordered.
Charlotte, Houki, Laura, and Rin said the last time they saw Seth was in the school. Cecilia however had a different story. She told them that the last time she saw him was the night of the terrorist attack.
"That idiot!" Chifuyu yelled. Seth had done what she said not to do.
"Instructor, why don't you call his superior officer or his sister?" Chifuyu felt stupid. She immediately call Natasha.
"Hello." Natasha said as she answered her phone.
"Where the he-"
"COME ON, MOVE YOUR ASSES! WE DON'T HAVE ALL DAY!" Natasha yell, startling Chifuyu at the sudden out burst.
"Sorry about that we're really busy." Natasha said. Chifuyu could hear a lot of noise in the background.
"Natasha what's going on?"
"I can't tell you, but I'm guessing you're calling for Seth. He'll answer you later tonight."
"Wait-" Natasha hung up.
"Orimura-sensei. Something big is happening." Yamada said as she came in panting. The girls followed the green hair woman. She led them to a T.V. They were shocked.
"The U.S is about to engage the new regime in the city of Baghdad. They have brought a strike force of 30,000 troops. They have also gained the U.N permission to use their I.S units." The newscaster said.
"30,000 troops?"
"Ma'am how many I.S units does America have?" Cecilia asked.
"They have 10 units."
Suddenly a large explosion of red appear in the city.
A few minutes earlier.
"Alright time to wake up." A woman said as she typed several keys into the keyboard. The liquid that Seth was submersed in, was drained. The woman broke the glass and got Seth out. She tapped him on his cheeks to wake him up. When Seth opened his eyes, saw a very beautiful woman in front of him.
"Who are you?"
"There's no time for that. Here, you're on your own kid." The woman handed him a pistol. It was a colt 1911. He looked Down and saw something on it. It had a kiss mark on it. Seth looked back up and saw that the woman was gone. Seth tried to activate [B.L.A.Z.E.], but it couldn't. Someone entered the room. He had an assault rifle aim at Seth.
"Freeze. Don't even thi-." Seth rushed in front of him and punched him in the chest. Seth's punch penetrated the mans chest killing him.
"What?" Seth didn't mean to kill him. He just wanted to knock the wind out of him.
"Come to me." A seductive voice said. Something came over Seth and whatever thought was in his mind left. Seth now had only one desire, to follow the voice. Seth began to mindlessly followed the voice.
"Seth stop! Don't listen to her!" Blaze yelled in Seth mind. Seth was unable to hear her. Something was blocking her voice.
Seth wondered towards an area. There, he saw a I.S unit. It was in it default state, but it wasn't the normal silver color, it was red.
"Come here." The voice said in the same seductive tone. Seth began to walk towards the red machine still in a trance.
"No Seth! Stop!" But it was too late. Seth stepped inside and actives the I.S. It turned into Goo and surrounded Seth's body.
Somewhere.
"What is your wish. Money?, Women?, Power?" The seductive voice said.
"I want to protect those dear to me."
"Are you sure?" The voice seemed surprised at Seth's answer.
"Yes."
"Mortal, from now on I will be yours and you will be mine. When I die, you will die. When you die, I shall die as well. This is the terms of our contract. Do you accept?"
"Yes." Seth said.
"Then the deal is set." Suddenly, the most beautiful women Seth ever saw appeared in front of him. She had crimson red hair, her body was the same type that Chifuyu had. Her hair reached halfway down her back. Her eyes were emerald green. Seth blushed at her beauty.
"You're embarrassing me." The woman said causing Seth to realize his actions.
"Sorry, but you're so beautiful." Seth said as he turned away. The woman was surprised at his reaction and laugh a little.
"Come, we have to save your friends." The woman placed her hands on Seth's face, then came closer to him. She kissed Seth on the lips. Seth was a little surprised at her actions, but soon returned the kiss.
Outside.
Seth opened his eyes and saw himself in a red I.S. The I.S. had large shoulder blades. It's helmet had two horns on it. It was a lot more bulky than [B.L.A.Z.E.] The strangest part, was that the I.S. had two disk bits hovering behind it. (It looks like red joker, from megaman starforce 3).
Seth brought up the HUD and looked at its weapons. His eyes open wide. A shit ton could not describe the sheer amount of firepower this machine had.
"This is-."
"All yours." The voice said.
"Who are you?"
"Just call me Flame." Flame said.
"Seth how could you." Blaze yelled.
"Blaze, what's wrong? Why are you mad?" Seth was baffled by her sudden outburst.
"Wait Blaze you have a contract with him?" Flame said.
"Yes you skank." Blaze said. Her words were shocking to Seth. She was usually calm.
"Okay, I'll ignore that last remark for now, but how the hell was I able to form a contract with him.? A mortal can't have more than one at a time."
"Enough! We'll deal with this later, but for now we need to get out of here." Both of them agreed to Seth's idea.
"Let's test this out." Seth said as he made a red sphere of energy. Seth didn't expect that the two disk bits would also make a red sphere as well.
Seth unleashed the three red spheres of energy. The three red beams launched at ceiling and tore open a hole. Seth saw the sun's rays coming from the hole.
"Let's do this [F.L.A.M.E.]." Seth said as he got ready for whatever got in his way.
"It's time to kick ass!" Flame said. Seth flew up towards outside.
Outside.
"What the hell was that?" Chris said as they just witness the large explosion of red.
"Sir, unknown unit detected in the city." One of the radar operatives said.
"What do they have more than forty I.S. units?"
"Sir we've found Seth Fairs!" Another operative said.
"Where?!" Both Chris and Natasha yelled.
"He's in the unknown." The man said, Suddenly all the forces in the city opened fire on the new I.S. unit. Natasha watched in horror as the barrage was relentless.
"All forces, move in and assis-" Chris stopped talking as a new event had just unfolded.
With Seth.
Seth look around himself and saw the forty unmanned I.S. units. He was also taking note of the massive amounts of enemy personnel in the city. He saw that they were armed with, heavy armor, anti-air missiles, and assault rifles. He noticed several snipers in the buildings, who were now aiming at Seth. Soon the other members of the regime were aiming as well. The [S.T.A.R.S.] units now had their miniguns aimed at Seth.
They didn't hesitate at all, and shot at Seth. A massive barrage was unleashed upon Seth. The barrage had created a large smokescreen. They stopped shooting as it was clear that Seth was destroyed. Everyone was utterly shocked when they witness a red glowing sphere in the smoke.
"What is that it? My turn now." Seth said as he began his attack.
Seth flew to the closest [S.T.A.R.S.] unit. Said unit, brought out it's energy blades and tried to slash at Seth, however Seth avoid the blades and landed a punch to the unmanned unit's torse. The unit's back exploded in a rain of nuts and bolts.
"One down-."
"-Thirtynine to go." Flame said finishing Seth sentence.
Meanwhile with the Team.
"Why the hell aren't we sending our support in?" Natasha said
"We been ordered to stand by." Chris said answering her.
"What? Why?"
"Orders from up top."
"But that Seth, he needs our help."
"That's what I said, but they deemed that because he was being held by the enemy and he just appears with a new I.S. he could be dangerous. We have new orders to capture him." Natasha almost flipped a table when she heard.
"What utterly insane."
"I can't do anything. My hands are tied."
Back with Seth.
Two [S.T.A.R.S.] units charged at Seth. Each had an Energy Blade out. Seth waited until the last second to avoid the attack, the two units crashed into each other. Seth was just above the two [S.T.A.R.S.] unit and placed two charges on them, Seth felt that another unit was coming and moved away just in time. Seth saw that the three units were close to each other and detonated the charge. The explosion destroyed the three units.
"Thirty-Six left."
Seth raised his shields up as he saw several shots from a squad of tanks, heading his way. Seth knew that they wouldn't even a problem, but they could cause him to slip up if they kept distracting him. Seth landed on one of the tanks, crushing it. The tank closest to Seth, tried to fire at point black, but it missed. Seth grabbed the tank by the barrel and swung it at another tank. The two tanks collided and exploded. Seth brought out [F.L.A.M.E.]'s Railguns. The two guns appeared on the side of the large shoulder blades. Seth unleashed five shots, destroying the rest of the tank squad.
Seth commanded the disk bits into assault mode. The disks grew an orange energy disk blade around them. They began to spin up and now charged at the enemy units. The blades had no trouble at all ripping apart anything in their way. Whether it was an I.S., a building, or a person. The blades tore through them, like a hot knife through butter. The last attack had just destroyed 23 [S.T.A.R.S.] units. The enemy was getting desperate. Seth witness the sky grow dark, as the enemy launched all of it's anti-air missiles, along with the remaining 13 [S.T.A.R.S.] noise missiles.
Unknow to Seth, his whole battle had been broadcast to the entire world. Many people were absolutely astonish at the abilities that [F.L.A.M.E.] has. Many of the world's leaders were now making plans to capture the new unit, but many were speechless at the current events that were unfolding. It was the same situation as the 'White Knight' incident.
"Well fuck!" Seth thought as he saw the amounts of missiles that were fired at him.
"Seth I have a plan to get out of this, but I need you to give me your full trust." Flame said.
"Well you got it."
"Thank you."
Seth looked at the missiles and began to form a red sphere in his hand and the disk bits began to form red sphere of energy themselfs.
"Red Gaia Eraser!" Seth yelled as the disks began to spin around himself unleashing two massive red beams. The missiles were being wiped out at an unthinkable pase. Seth was locking on to the remaining [S.T.A.R.S.] units. Seth unleashed his red sphere that he dragged across the sky hitting all of his targets.
"Holy crap, that worked." Seth thought as he started to leave the city. He flew towards the group, just a few miles away.
"I told you it would Seth."
"Finally!." A dark voice said in Seth's head. Seth turned his head and saw a fast moving black object heading his way. Seth was able to avoid a direct hit from whatever it was that tried to attack him, but he couldn't avoid the barrage of blue spheres. Seth took several direct hits. Seth watched [F.L.A.M.E.]'s shield points down way down.
"Flame why did your points drop so much?"
"Because that attack was made to hurt me the most, Seth be careful, this person is trouble."
"A specialized attack, just who is this person?" Seth thought as he waiting for his attack to show himself. The unknown attacker appeared in front of Seth and he was visibly shaken.
"You're-"
"-Me." The man said. This person had the all the same facial as Seth, he was the same height. Everything was the same except that his hair was black, and his eyes were brown. His I.S. was fairly simple in design. It was alike [B.L.A.Z.E.] in the main body, but it had metallic wings, instead of red wings of energy.
"Who the hell are you?! A clone?!"
"You can call me Ichika Orimura, I mean you don't use that name anymore, Seth." Ichika said.
"Who the hell are you?!" Seth yelled again.
"Ichika Orimura."
Seth was sick of this. He charged at Ichika, who only swiftly avoided the slashes. Seth's barrage couldn't even land a scratch on Ichika. Ichika appeared behind Seth and raised his I.S.'s blasters up.
"Too slow." Ichika said as he unleashed a torrent of blue spheres. Seth raised his shields up protecting himself from the attack. Seth was currently trying to think of a plan to fight back. He smirked as he thought of a plan.
"Blaze, how much energy have you recovered?"
"Only 50 points."
"Perfect." Seth said. Seth backed away from Ichika and switched from [F.L.A.M.E.] to [B.L.A.Z.E.]. Seth and Ichika's speed were matched. The two boys brought out their energy blades and clashed. Their strikes were evenly matched. Seth was able to grab on to Ichika and his hand began to glow red.
"Energy Drain." Ichika witnessed his I.S. [F.L.A.R.E.] energy points dropping at a horrifying rate. Ichika was able to remove Seth, but not before he lost half of his energy points. Both of the boys shield points were at 400 even.
"So you traded that massive amount of power for speed. Smart choice, but you're still no match for me."
"We'll see about that." Seth said as he unleashed torrent of noise missiles as did Ichika. Each missile canceled out each other. So much noise was released into the air, that any machine within a twenty-five mile radius was jammed. The blast had also made a cloud of noise. Ichika and Seth bursted out of the cloud and began to unload a new barrage of attack. The boys failed to notice the nine new I.S. units that were entering the air space.
Seth and Ichika entered a bind. Their four blades were intertwined. Ichika received a healthy dose of bullets via the new group that came to aid Seth.
"What?" Seth said.
"Seth Fairs, it's good to see you're still fighting." A woman said, Seth instantly knew who it was.
"Iris Calling?"
"Damn right kid. Now lets kick some ass girls."
"Yes ma'am." The other girls said.
"Damned pest." Ichika said as started to make a blue sphere in his hands.
"Oh no you don't."'Seth said as he started to make his own sphere.
The two boy's beams clashed and entered a powers struggle. Their beams not giving up a single inch. Iris saw her chance to strike. She used [Fang Quake]'s [Thunder Spear]. She jabbed the spear at the boy, Ichika thought that the attack was foolish at first, yet that changed when he felt 100,000 volts of electricity entering his system.
"Fucking bitch." Ichika cursed.
"You're mine!" Seth yelled as he charged at Ichika with an energy blade.
"Too bad it time to leave." Ichika said as a portal open up behind him. Ichika quickly jumped inside. Seth was unable to stop. He entered the portal.
"Shit, Seth!" Iris yelled. Natasha who was at the temporary H.Q. Was heart broken. Her little brother was gone again and who knows where he went. The rest of the forces now went to work on finishing the remaining forces in the city. Even though Seth did all the work before.
Somewhere.
Seth open his eyes and saw that he was in some sort of vortex. He saw strange shapes and figures passing around him. He was freaked out. He started to see numbers spinning around him.
"What the heck is this place?"
"Welcome to the void between time and space." Blaze said.
"The void?"
"Yes. Here the laws of space and time don't exist." Flame said as she materialized next to Seth.
"Flame how long are we gonna be in here?" Seth found this place quite disturbing. He wanted to get out of here ASAP.
"I don't know, this type of stuff is blaze's field."
"Blaze?"
"I'm sorry Seth. I don't know how long this will take. I wasn't the one to create this portal."
"Wait, you can create portals?"
"Of course. Where do you think the things my black holes sucks up goes to."
"That makes sense. Hey blaze I got another question, why don't you materialize, like Flame does?" Seth heard a strange noise from Blaze. Flame began to smirk again.
"Oh Blaze, you haven't shown your real self to your master yet? That's very naughty."
"Fine, I'll do it if that tramp will shut her yap." Blaze said as she revealed her true self. A girl that was a head shorter than Seth appeared next to him. She had Snow White hair, that reached mid down her back. Her eyes were bright yellow and she had C-cup breast. Her curves were just perfect. Seth couldn't help, but stare at her beauty.
"Don't stare." Seth regained his thoughts and regained control of his body.
"Sorry, I couldn't help it, you're just so beautiful." Blaze was surprised by Seth's choice of words. She began to blush.
"Eh? I'm beautiful? But I'm not pretty, and my body is small."
"No, you really are cute. I mean it Blaze." Seth words put a smile on Blaze's face. Someone was starting to get annoyed.
"Alright you two, break it up." Flame said causing Blaze to grow angry.
"Why must your kind always ruin any happiness you see." Blaze said and Flame was starting to get mad.
"My kind, what the hell do you mean my kind you bitch."
"Sow."
"Whore."
"Tramp."
"Slut."
"ENOUGH!" Seth yelled causing the two girls to stop their bickering.
"Blaze what's wrong with you? Why do you hate Flame so much?"
"She a damn demon that's why. Seth how can you trust her?"
"I don't have a reason not trust her. She hasn't hurt me at all." Blaze was still wavering. She knew that all contracts ended bad.
"But she will. She wi-"
"I will never do such a thing. Our contract forbids me from hurting my master. How dare you even say such a thing." Flame said as she joined the conversation.
"Blaze please trust me. Master wants us to get along. I know you feel it too, so please." Flames words worked on Blaze. She knew Seth better than anyone. Well maybe not anymore, but nonetheless she knew what Seth desired.
"Fine. I'll deal with you for now, but I will eliminate you if you threaten Seth." Blaze words put a smile on Seth face. He wouldn't have to worry about teamwork. Seth just remembered that the others at I.S Academy were probably worried. Chifuyu was probably beyond pissed and might kill him when he came back. Then he came with a choice. Should he tell her the truth or keep up the lie.
"Master, don't worry. I may not have been with you for long, but I want you to know that I will always be with you no matter what choice you make."
"I'm with her Seth. I'll stand behind you whatever your choice is." Seth found his answer now. He had been debating on what to do for the last few days, but now he knew what to do.
"Thanks it really means a lot to me, to hear those words from you two." Seth would have continued to talk if he didn't notice the tunnel changing color and the surrounding changing as well. Seth saw that the portal was reaching its end, but he would see something he never expected.
Currently in Tokyo-3.
"GET DOWN, THEY'RE GONNA DROP AN N2 MINE." A blue hair woman yelled as she grabbed a boy to cover him from the blast. The small vehicle was sent flying away.
The blast incinerated the surrounding area to dust. Nothing was left in it wake, or so they thought. A beast unlike any seen on earth was standing at the epicenter. The blast's single goal had been to destroy the beast were it stood, and yet it failed, but The beast was did not go undamaged.
It had already begun to regenerate. Once it was healed, the beast took a giant leap and continued towards its goal. Whatever that may be. Where the giant once stood, a vortex was opening.
