I.S Acadamy
It has been only three days in the world of Infinite Stratos. Natasha Fairs had come to the I.S. academy to ask a certain person a special favor. Chifuyu received a call from her old friend and heard what she had in plan. She called Tabane Shinonono. The world renown genius. "Chi-chan!" Tabane tried to hug Chifuyu, but was stopped.
"Tabane this is serious. We need you to find Seth Fairs."
"Ah, okay!" Tabane said as she went to work. If anyone could find Seth it would be her.
Meanwhile.
The five girls were feeling troubled. They had learned that no one knew where Seth was. Cecilia was the one who took this the hardest. She felt like it was her fault that Seth was gone. If she didn't let Seth go alone during the attack, he might still be here. The others could tell she was hurting.
"Cecilia, come on it's not your fault." Charlotte said to the young British representative.
"But I let him go alone Charlotte. If I had stayed, I could have done something about." Cecilia said.
"Cecilia no one blames you. Plus Seth isn't weak. He'll be fine." Rin said.
"That's right. My bride isn't so weak that he'll die." Laura said.
"Look we all know that man is way too stubborn to die. So if we wait, he'll be back." Houki stated.
Someone was about to say something, but suddenly they heard a sound that surprised everyone. The sound was so loud that everyone in the Academy heard it. The students then began to hear what sounded like something large fighting. It sounded like it was coming from the one of the stadiums. No students would be close enough to see them in time. Unit 03 and Unit 04 began their clash.
The white one started to choke the black one. The black one in turn opened its mouth and then crushed the hands choking it. Unit 03 had entered berserker mode. The beast roared as it held down the white Eva. It ripped opened the white Eva's chest using its teeth. Everyone was shocked when they saw blood come from the thing they thought was a machine.
"Maya what the hell is going on!" Chifuyu said.
"Something unknown has entered an Arena. It's huge, but all cameras are not working and we're unable to make a visible image." Maya said.
"Dammit!" Chifuyu cursed as she would head out in her own I.S. to stop these things. Luckily for her, both of the giants seemed to disappeared, and the cameras returned. This showed two new figures. One of which everyone knew about.
"It's [B.L.A.Z.E.]!" Maya yelled in shock and surprised.
"Seth!" Natasha cried out in joy as she saw the I.S. The other girls were happy, but they soon were wondering who the other person was. Maya began to zoom in on the new I.S. and when she did, Chifuyu, Houki, and Rin were shocked at who was in the I.S.
Seth was currently wondering what had happened. Just seconds ago he was in his Eva and now it deactivated.
"Blaze what happen?"
"I'm sorry Seth. I'm not used to bring out something that large. I can only hold out for about seven minutes."
"I see, where are we?"
"We're back home master." Flame's words caused Seth's eyes to open wide.
"Shit, that means they saw the Eva."
"No they didn't,I made a lot of noise to jam all the sensors." Blaze's words put Seth at easy, at least not he wouldn't have to explain the freaking huge cybor that no one had ever seen before. Seth was about to say something when Blaze spoke.
"Seth look out!" Blaze yelled getting Seth's attention. The pilot saw a sphere of plasma heading his way. Seth avoided the attack, but he noticed that his energy points for [B.L.A.Z.E.] were low, he knew that the S2 organ would give him limitless energy, but Blaze told him the reason for a limit was to protect himself. Energy from the S2 core could have a strange effect on the human body if exposed for a long period of time, and [Heaven's Wrath] accelerated this process dramatically.
"Blaze switch with me so you can rest." Flame said. [B.L.A.Z.E.] and [F.L.A.M.E.] switched places.
"It's that new I.S." Charlotte said as she remembered the news feed that one day.
Seth flew towards the black I.S., but [F.L.A.R.E.] is much faster than [F.L.A.M.E.]. It easily got behind [F.L.A.M.E.] and fire a shot from its blaster. The attack was stopped by the two disk bits on [F.L.A.M.E.]. They took the hit then the bits started to saw away at the enemy I.S. [F.L.A.R.E.] and Ichika quickly moved out of the way, but failed to notice Seth, who used ignition boost in [F.L.A.M.E.], behind them. Seth gave a impact punch to Ichika who went hurtling down towards the ground. Ichika was getting up, but Seth moved too quickly and slammed him into a wall. Seth then dragged him across the wall. The poor wall was breaking as Seth dragged Ichika.
Then several teachers arrived in their [Raphael-Revive] units. They ordered the two to stand down, but they didn't hear them.
Seth now held on to [F.L.A.R.E.]. He began to fire a volley from his railguns at Ichika. After that Railgun barrage he fired his needle gun point blank and his railguns, which shattered several pieces of armor. One of the needles entered Ichika's left arm.
"Motherfucker!" Ichika yelled in pain. The black metallic wings on Ichika's back, extended and wrapped around Seth. Suddenly Seth remembered an attack like this before with the [Silver Gospel].
"Shit!" Seth thought before the attack came. A volley of black energy shots came from the wings. Seth raised a barrier to protect himself, but the volley was too strong and hit drained a lot of Seth's energy points. The boys now backed off each other. Ichika began to speak.
"This isn't over, not by a long shot Seth." Ichika said before a portal opened up behind him. Seth was tempted to follow him, but he saw that both [B.L.A.Z.E.] and [F.L.A.M.E.] damage levels were high. He knew that only a fool would try and fight with a damaged I.S.
He deactivated [F.L.A.M.E.] and fell on the ground passed out. It had been a really long day for him and he need to rest.
Several Hours Later.
It had been almost six hours since the battle between Seth and Ichika. It had created one hell of a mess. The media had heard rumors of two giants destroying the I.S. stadium. Luckily Tabane went straight to work on destroying any video information of the beast as she wanted to be the one to study it. She also wanted to gain information on the new I.S. Seth had acquired, but any attempts to get any data on either [B.L.A.Z.E.] or [F.L.A.M.E.] would end in failure.
Right now Seth was sleeping in a room. He had several machines tied up to him. The other girl were with Natasha in the same room. The medics had tried to remove the black plugsuit Seth was wearing, but it was skin tight and they didn't know how to remove it. Natasha was currently holding and rubbing Seth's hand as he rested. She finally had her little brother back.
"Seth..." Natasha whispered.
The other girls found it strange how close Natasha seemed to be with her little brother, but soon understood that she just missed him. After all he was captured and who knows what they did to him.
Meanwhile.
Seth started to open his eyes and saw only white all around him. The white space seemed to go on forever, it was literally never ending. Yet even in the vast emptiness, Seth felt calm.
"Where am I?"
"Seth."
"Master."
Seth turned his head towards the voices. He saw both Blaze and Flame in their human forms.
"Blaze, Flame where are we?"
"This is the realm of your soul." Blaze said.
"My soul?"
"Yes, here we can about anything without worry of anyone finding out." Flame said.
"Blaze, I need you to open a portal back to Shinji's world. We need to help him." Seth said which caused the two girls faces to change.
"Master there's something you should know." Flame said. Blaze would finish it.
"Seth, we've been gone only three days here in this world." Seth's eyes grew wide.
"What?! We were gone for at least Five months."
"Master, time does not flow the same in all worlds."
"But that's, wait does that mean I'm still five months older."
"Mentally yes, physically no. We are able to slow down your aging. You are only two days older then when you left." Blaze stated.
"But that means."
"Seth, Shinji might be dead." Seth fell to his knees at Blaze's words.
"Dammit! Why?! Why the fuck after I've acquired power, I still can't save anyone!" Seth said as he slammed his fist at the invisible ground.
"Seth, you can't save everyone. When I person's time come, it comes. You can only hold on to the time you've spent with them." Blaze said. Seth was about to say something, but Flame spoke again.
"Dammit, she's back again. I'll be right back." Flame said as she disappeared.
"What's going on?"
"Tabane Shinonono keeps trying to hack into one of us. Don't worry we can't be hacked." Blaze said as she disappeared as well.
Seth slowly saw the world come returning around him.
In Seth's room.
"Dammit, that A.I. Broke my machine again grrr." Tabane said as smoke was coming out of a machine in her hands.
"Shinonono-san, maybe its too hard for you to hack." Natasha said. Tabane glared at her.
"Nothing is too hard for me. Looks like I have to go a little harder on the I.S." Tabane said as she brought out a larger machine.
"Onee-chan I don't think Seth would like it if you hacked his I.S." Houki said.
"Houki-chan I need to find out what that giant thing was. If any government finds out about it. Ikun gonna be in a lot of trouble." Tabane said as instead of hacking into [F.L.A.M.E.] she would try to hack into [B.L.A.Z.E.], but Natasha stopped her.
"Woah, Shinonono-san you can't hack into [B.L.A.Z.E.] that's under United States property. Hacking into it is a serious crime." Natasha said.
"Look we need to find out what that thing was." Tabane plugged in her wires into [B.L.A.Z.E.] wrist standby form. Blaze didn't like the fact that someone tried to hack into her. She decided to give Tabane a taste a little of her own medicine.
"Oh no." Tabane said as she saw that she wasn't hacking [B.L.A.Z.E.] but she was being hacked. Blaze tore through the firewall Tabane had and began to copy data. She found what she was looking for and left.
"Son of a, [B.L.A.Z.E.] hacked me instead!" Tabane yelled. Everyone eyes shot open. Something had defeated Tabane, the world genius. Just what on earth was blaze.
"This isn't fair." Tabane sigh in defeat.
"Consider that your punishment for trying to hack into [B.L.A.Z.E.]." A voice said. The girls turned towards the voice and saw Seth getting up.
"Seth!" The five girls and Natasha said. Natasha jumped on Seth and embraced him in a hug.
"You idiot! Do you have any idea how worried I was for you!" Natasha yelled as she let her tears run down her face.
"Nee-chan." Seth said as he returned the hug.
"Seth Fairs, you're up. You have some explaining to do." Chifuyu said as she entered the room.
"Alright Chifuyu-Nee what did you want to know?" Chifuyu stopped dead in her tracks.
"What did you call me?" Chifuyu asked.
"Ummm, Nothing." Seth was going to tell her the truth, but he thought that Chifuyu would ask him to come home A.S.A.P. so best thing to do would be to wait until he was eighteen then he could make his own choices, plus he had to deal with 'Ichika' otherwise Chifuyu could have a hard time believing him. He hoped they didn't see the [F.L.A.R.E.]'s pilot. He was wrong.
"Anyway I want Information on the enemy you were fighting." Seth mentally cursed at Chifuyu's words.
"Orimura-sensei if you think that's your little brother, you're dead wrong. They made a clone of me. They changed the hair and eye color to match your little brother. That thing isn't human. If it had the chance it would kill you without a second thought."
"But that can't be. He-" Seth cut her off.
"I saw this bastard kill innocent civilians. He slaughter Children." Seth remembered when he and Ichika were fighting in the Geofront, Ichika crushed a train carrying civilians. Seth was angry, but he couldn't lose himself. He had to focus. The others were shocked. Houki and Rin couldn't believe Seth words. This person had to be Ichika.
"Seth don't lie to us. That was Ichika. It had to be." Rin said.
"You can believe what you want, but I will stop that thing." Seth said as he was getting up. He saw that his plugsuit was still on and he could smell the LCL. It had a slight hint of blood in it.
"Can you please leave the room so a can shower." Seth said as he entered the shower in his room. While he was showering, he heard the door outside open and several people stepped out of his room. He finished his shower and dematerialized the black plugsuit on the floor. As he enter his room, he saw that Natasha was still there.
"Nee-san, why are you still here?" Seth asked.
"Seth I need to ask you a few questions."
"Sure ask away. Seth said as he grabbed some clothes and headed back to the shower room. Why didn't he do this when he had Charlotte as a roommate. He wondered. As soon as he came out Natasha started asking questions.
"Seth what happened to you when you were captured?"
"I don't know. When I was captured they kept knocking me out with drugs. I have no clue what they did."
"I see, alright what is this new I.S. you've acquired?"
"It's called [F.L.A.M.E.]. It appears to be the sister unit of [B.L.A.Z.E.]. This one specializes in heavy assaults strikes. She slower than [B.L.A.Z.E.] but she makes up for it in pure strength." Natasha took note that Seth called [F.L.A.M.E.] a she. This meant that he's met the A.I of the I.S. and has grown a bond to it. But in only three days. This was unheard of. Of course she had no clues on [B.L.A.Z.E.] and [F.L.A.M.E.] true origins.
"Alright final question. Seth are you still a virgin?" Seth grew redder than a cherry.
"Sis, what the hell kind of a question was that?!" Seth said as he was really embarrassed.
"What? I just want to make sure you aren't doing anything bad while you're here. I mean I've seen how cute the girls are here and I've seen how they were looking at you."
"Sis I'm still a virgin alright. Please stop asking this question." Seth didn't want to continue this talk and whatever god there is, may he forbid Natasha from giving Seth the talk.
"Alright Seth. I'll be teaching here for the next few year by the way." Natasha said
"WHAT! Sis you don't have a teaching license."
"I'm the drill gonna be an I.S. combat instructor. So rest up, you only have about two weeks left until your summer break is over." Natasha now left the room. As soon as she left, Seth called Chris at the B.S.A.A. HQ. Soon he picked up.
"Seth, it's good to see that you're safe and sound. So why did you call me?" Chris said as he answered Seth's call.
"Chris I think you should sit down. I need you to be prepared for what I'm about to tell you." Chris waited for the news, but nothing could prepare him for what Seth was about to say.
"Albert Wesker is alive." Chris fell out of his chair.
"WHAT! You mean to tell me the world's most wanted criminal is back from the dead! Seth if this is a prank you better stop it right now."
"It's not a joke. That man is back and we need to stop him." Chris had a frightening idea in his head. He wonder if they did something to Seth while he was captured.
"Seth, please answer me truthfully. Did they do anything to you?"
"Yes, they did something to me, but I don't know what."
"Seth this is an order. You are ordered to come to H.Q. For a medical check up. We might be able to stop whatever it is." Chris said.
"Sure thing, I also have something I need to tell you." Seth said as he cut the connection. He began to pack up. He would be gone for a few days, but it shouldn't be a problem. Chris told him that his flight would be tomorrow so tonight he could rest. As he headed down to the mess hall he saw the five girls chatting up a storm. As he sat down Houki and Rin stopped talking.
"Oh Seth, you're finally feeling better?" Cecilia asked as Seth sat down.
"Yeah, I'm feeling great. Thanks for asking, So what happen since I've been gone?" Seth wanted to know if Umbrella or whatever organization that captured him made any moves.
"Nothing big has happen, In fact it's been really quiet since you left." Charlotte said as she started eat her main dish.
"I see, well I got some good news and bad news." The girls didn't like that Seth said bad news.
"Good news is that I've received twelve tickets to that new water park that's opening up in a week." This caused the Girls to choke a little on their food.
"Seth how did you get those tickets, They're extremely expensive?" Charlotte wanted to go to this new water park with Seth, but she saw how expensive the tickets were. They were way too expensive for her. She knew Seth had a lot of money, but why on earth would he buy twelve of them.
"The owner of water park is someone I saved on a mission. He decided to return the favor. Now here's the bad news. I have to leave for five days." Laura immediately spoke.
"What? But Seth you've only just recovered."
"I need to make sure whatever group that captured me didn't do anything bad to me." The other grew silent. They didn't realized that Seth was experimented on. Who knows what they did to him.
"Come on I'm sure I'm fine. They'll just do a physical and I'll be perfectly fine." Seth saw the worried look on their face. He hated it.
That night Seth found it hard to sleep. It could be the fact that he was asleep just a little while before, or was he just worried.
Two days later.
The flight was deadly boring for Seth. He could have flown the trip in a fraction of the time, but [B.L.A.Z.E.] had been grounded by the U.S. government, and [F.L.A.M.E.] was unregistered. It would be shot at on sight. [B.L.A.Z.E.] of course could bypass the lockdown on her, but Seth knew it would cause an unwanted incident. He just decided to go with the flow.
He arrived a day later and was now in the middle of testing. So far they found no problems with his body. In fact he's never been in better shape. His body reaction time had increased dramatically. His physical strength had also increased. In all they couldn't find anything wrong with Seth.
"Well Seth the nerds say your clean of anything. Are you sure that you feel fine?" Chris asked as he was reading off the report from the test they've conducted.
"I think I get angry a little faster now, but other than that I feel fine." Seth said as he finished changing from the locker room.
"We'll keep an eye on that, but other then you have a clean bill of health. So Seth, what is it that you want to tell me?" Chris asked.
"Come, we need to talk in private." Seth said as he started walking away this lab and into a more private location.
The two made their way to a location outside of the lab. Here there were no cameras, and no people around. It was perfect for what he was about to tell Chris.
Chris at first was thinking Seth was pulling his leg when he told him he traveled to a different world, but that soon when Seth showed that he had combat footage of his time at NERV and his battles with the angels. The final piece of proof was the fact that [B.L.A.Z.E.] had an A.T-Field. Something that was out of this world. Chris couldn't say anything when he learned that Seth had to travel to several more worlds.
"Shit Seth. This is big, really big. I can see why you kept this hidden."
"And you're the only person I trust to keep this a secret. Now then, the reason I asked you to keep me here for five days is that [B.L.A.Z.E.] has detected a new relic in a different universe. I have to get before someone else does."
"So you have about three days to get to work. Don't worry I'll fake some papers and you'll be set."
"Thanks chris. I know its a very big risk for you too take."
"Just come back in one piece." Chris said.
Seth opened a portal to the universe that [B.L.A.Z.E.] said to head to go to. Chris watched Seth leave this world to head for the new one.
The Void.
For the third time, Seth was inside the void. This time something was off. It was a lot long then the other times he had traveled.
"Blaze why is it taking so long?" Seth asked as he grew a little worry. He did not want to get stuck in the void.
"Sorry me and flame are currently installing several upgrades."
"Upgrades?"
"Yes master. When we're done, that [Akatsubaki] won't be the only fourth generation I.S." Flame stated.
"Wait, fold out armor?" Seth knew that fold out armor is the only way an I.S. could be a fourth generation machine.
"Yup and we've made an space flight mode. With this you'll be able to travel and survive in the vacuum of space, also inter solar system flight will be possible." Seth as pleased by this. Every boys' dream is to travel through space and how he could do this.
"Alright, so how long should it take?"
"I should be finished in about two hours, Flame will be finished in about one day." Blaze stated. Seth decide to wait. He knew that something strong was gonna be in his way when he exited the void, but he would kick its ass and defeat anything dumb enough to get between him and the relic.
Meanwhile.
In this new universe, a young sixteen year old girl named Samus Aran was heading towards a signal from a group of space pirates. It was coming from a space station that was in orbit above Tallon IV. She knew the planet from the stories that the Chozo told her about. She hated space pirates more than anything, but she couldn't ignore a cry for help. She typed in the flight path and begun her journey across the vast cosmos of space. How will Seth and Samus fate cross in this new tale.
