## The Explosion

[12/20/2015 4:03:57 PM] Earth Worm Jay: The Night passed with a success. Kin dropped Yukashi off at his home to say his goodbyes. It'd be awhile before the two of them would get the chance to see each other once again. As Yukashi would have went into his home, he would noticed that everything had been the same. All was well... however, once and when he went to his bed in attempts to sleep for the night, a trick wire would have been hit and a massive explosion would have eurrpted causing Yukashi and his home to erupt in a burst of flame, murdering him instantly. Yukashi barely concsious would be crawling on the ground as his house was burning down around him. "..Gh.." A large piece of debris would fall on Yukashi's legs crushing them completely making him lose total feeling in his legs. His skin was burnt and he was losing eyesight.  His grunts would go unheard as the sounds of fire trucks, ambulance, and police cars came shooting down the street. Being a member of the KPD had its perks such as this home security system. The moment Yukashi's house went up in flames an alarm would have been set off back at KPD precient. At that very second police cruisers and other services would be flushing down the street getting to Yukashi's home in no time. Firemen would jump out their cars immediantely getting to work putting out the flames. A three men crew would swarm inside finding Yukashi's body laying on the ground. "WE GOT A LIVE ONE!" One of the firefighters said. Two of them would start moving debris off of Yukashi while another one pulled him out of the mess. The men hoisted Yukashi up on their shoulders as they started running out of the burning building only to have to crumble to the ground once they were out.

The firefighters would escort Yukashi to the ambulance quickly getting him on a stretcher and pulling off towards the hospital. The ambulance would quickly arrive to Kasaihana Memorial Hospital. The emts would take Yukashi out of the stretcher pushing him down the hallway towards the ER. Yukashi would be fading in and out of consiousness suddenly seeing a team of medical doctors surrouding him. Before long this was making headlines all over Kasaihana. A news woman on tv would be speaking outside of the hospital. "This is Tricia Takanaga reporting live from Kasaihana Memorial Hospital where the Red Knight member Dectective Yukashi Sanada has been transported after a freak accident happened just in his residences in south District 2. Doctors have been saving Yukashi is in critical condition." News of Yukashi's state would be travling all over the KPD branches.

After a long sugery and medical process Yukashi's state would be stabled but still critical. He'd be laying in the hospital bed with different tubes hooked up to his body. Doctors would be standing outside of his room as they looked exhausted. "Well, his legs are completely broken he most likely won't be able to walk after this. His vision is gone, and not to mention he has third degree burns on his upper and middle person. He also suffers from fractures in his arms and wrist. Really it's amazing this guy is even breathing." The doctor shook his head as he looked to his fellow doctors. "Well, at this rate he's going to be on the bed for a while."

[12/22/2015 5:29:43 PM] Kanye: ( https://youtu.be/sB8dmmFxVl0 )

" Don't worry... We'll take it from here. " A man said stepping into the depths of the room Yukashi had been placed in. A smirk breaking across his face. " Um.. Excuse me. And you are? " Said the Doctor whom been giving the mysterious suited man a glare that simply read ' What the fuck. '

" Im no one special. But you can call me John Dealer. I work for a company known as Project esper. Im sure you've heard of us. " The muscle bounded man said as a sloo of his men rushed in with guns in hand, all of them wearing the Project Esper signature military unit gear. " You've done your part doctor... let me do mine. " Dealer said before placing both of his hands behind his head and a gun shot was sent right into the doctors head from a silenced pistol killing him instantly. " Gather the body. We have much work to do. " Dealer said before turning his head back to rub his neck... it had a line around it, seemingly a scar of some sort. The Soliders would have began to roll the hostpial bed out of the room while the other soliders took lead/ formation and began to fire off at the hosptial workers and civillians that would have seen them. Making sure noone knew they had been here. " Load him up. " Dealer said as they crew pushed Yukashi up and into the helicopper , Dealer getting on a bit after they got him up and onto things as well.

Another man sat within the air craft, examining over Yukashi's destryoed form. " And this is the one you want? " " Yes. Wendingo wanted him dead, and its obvious that this is his handiwork. I would like to see and find out why. With the information gathered about Experiment Zero. We now have the means to create our other procedure. And he's going to be a test dummy. He's dead anyways. Might as well put some use into him. Dont you agree Sora? " The hooded man would have opened his eyes up with a bright glowing gold. " You couldn't even handle Nik. He's a Red Knight. He'll escape as well. " " Who cares as long as we get the data we need. You did well by me, tipping your own brother off like that. Your perfect for this kind of busniess. " " I dont give a shit what you think, I did what I did because I wanted you to kill him. Father's going to step down soon. And when he does the Kagemaru should have been mine. Now Nik is still in the picture. And he's fucking Indestructable. " " Relax Tasanagi. Your brothers busy trying to save the world now. He doesn't give a shit about the Kagemaru. I did you a favor. " Sora would have given John a glare before turning his attention back onto Yukashi. " Lets just get this over with. " Sora said closing his eyes again as he leaned back into his seat.

Yukashi was for the most part incoherent at the moment. During the whole process he was fading in and out of conciousness. It was a pretty bad sight to be honest it wasn't Yukashi's high moments. As he slipped in and out he heard the loud sound of a pistol going off. Yukashi knew the saw ever he'd always know that sound with no hesitation. After the pistol went off Yukashi was more aware longer than he could of. He heard the faint boots marching into the room. From there Yukashi blanked out.

Opening his eyes again Yukashi noticed he wasn't in the hospital anymore. His eyes were blinded by the bright lights making it harder for him to see at this point his vision.

## We can rebuild him...

[12/24/2015 1:00:02 PM] Kanye: Sora stood with his arms crossed as he mapped out everything infront of him. " So these are the schematics i've broken down for the bases of the augmentation. Dont fuck this up like you did with my designs for Nik. " " I messed up yours with your brother because it had intentions to kill him. He's far to valuble of an asset to just let him slip through our fingers. " Dealer said back to Sora as he paced throughout the lab where their cybernetic soliders had been peeling back over Yukashi's flesh and healing over the new layer. If he had been awake and aware of things, then this would have been one of the most painful sensations he'd ever felt in his entire life.

" So, I've broken down this into Three catatories. " Sora said back to Dealer whom stood with his arms crossed. " Nanoaugments, Androaugments, and Physoaugments. They have other names as well. But this is the general base of these ideals. The first one, Mechanical augmentation involves the use of cybernetics in order to improve or replace certain human body parts. It is the progression from basic limb prosthetics with the distinguishing feature being that the machinery and robotics interface directly with the central nervous system as opposed to the ends of peripheral nerves. It was the first method of augmentation which allowed people to assume superhuman abilities, albeit not without limitations, the most salient downsides being the individuals suffering from extreme physical and mental pain, and reliance on the anti-rejection drug Neuropozyne and painkillers all their life, if not equipped with the X1 biochip. With research beginning as early as the 2000s, mechanical augmentations became widespread during the 2020s. It was the predecessor and research template to physiopharmaceutical augmentation and the much more advanced nanotechnological augmentation. The main obstacle in mechanical augmentation was finding the perfect interface between man and machine. While external prosthetics can be made from hypoallergenic materials, there was no such luxury when implanting devices in the brain. Early augmentation projects addressed human diseases such as Parkinson's Disease, where patients had metal electrodes inserted into their brains to stop the tremors. While successful, the unfortunate side effect of using stiff metal electrodes was their vulnerability to impacts caused by bodily movements. This caused tissue injury and compromised the device's effectiveness. But i've figured out a way to get past that.

Nano-augmentation is the most advanced form of human augmentation. It uses nanites to give people the ability to do things that they couldn't normally do, for example, seeing in the dark, turning invisible, having immense strength, immunity from toxins and physical trauma, and more. The Omar are an example of extreme nano-augmentation - they have been so heavily nano-augmented that they no longer resemble humans at all, rather cyborgs with no skin and respirators for faces; the exact opposite of what the nanotechnology was created for. Nano-augmentation is the advanced equivalent of physiopharmaceutical augmentation and mechanical augmentation.Unlike its predecessor, nano-augmentation is both physically and mentally painless. It is very discreet, leaving almost no marks on the body, and is more efficient. However, it is almost impossible to find a person compatible with nanotechnological augmentations - the result of any unsuccessful operations was death. Nano-augmentation could not be realistically used unless the augmented were to be cloned and have their genetic code specifically written to accept them, or the genetic code could be rewritten in a living organism, which was not possible until the 2070s.

Physiopharmaceutical augmentation is a type of augmentation only used by the Illuminati and the Majestic 12. This type of augmentation consists of psychological conditioning, a process of behavior modification by which a subject comes to associate a desired behavior with a previously unrelated stimulus, and specific pharmaceutical drugs for enhanced capabilities and absolute loyalty.The two major side effects of this type of augmentation is the physical change and the depigmentation of the skin of the subject that turns it into albino, with pale skin, light red eyes and black hair, and the alteration of the vocal cords, giving a robotic voice. This will only be devloped in to defean pain receptors. And allow him to hide or change his voice to fit certain situations. "

Sora spoke while pacing, going through a list of images to show John Dealer whom had simply been looking from a distance as he watched the cybernetic robots pull pieces of Yukashi off from his arms, his head etc. Placing his organs into large cansters while they brought over the cybenetic body parts they were going to use as his new bases. " He's going to be made out of Reinforced Golden Titantium. The only thing stopping him something with the same energy scaling of the sun. So he wont be going down unless we want him to. And the best thing about this is, we'll have control over his thoughts and emotions. All we have to do, is install the interface chip into his brain stem on his new cybernetic body and he'll be ours. But first, we must put him back together. Proceede with reconstruction. " Sora said to the cybernetics so they'd carry on with the work demanded of them. " And what's he feeling in all of this?" Dealer said to Sora whom would answer with a scowl. " He's more then likely... remembering a fond memory from his child hood. Or a happy moment in his life. He wasn't dead, which says alot about the guy. Any other man wouldn't have survived that. We put him under... don't worry. He's thinking happy throughts right about now. "

The Procedure continued on for what seemed like hours. But it had actually been days. The Red Knights had found out that something had happened a day after. When the news got hold of Yukashi's body was missing from the hospital. The Red Knights would have hopped on the opportunity ASAP.

Meanwhile

In another Project Esper hideout, Yukashi's reformed body would have been constructed with full cybernetic capability. His torso was created to look more human like, and his arms were Auto mailed for sure. His full capability would be a mystery until usage. " If he's damaged. Whom will reconstruct him back to 100%? " Dealer said back to Sora whom would have been standing with the rest of his R&D team. " The research you did with my brother has taken into use. The Very formula of self restoration has been created. " " You mean, you've created a formula for self regeneration. " " That's right. When ever he comes in contact with electrical devices. He can feed off the electrical currents. Electricity and all forms of plasma like energy will give him the ability to be restored. It fuels him. And in all heals him. He'll be fine as long as there is energy he can absorb. " Sora said leaning over the railing. " Let him down. He's done. "

It had been 4 weeks, since his abduction and the process was complete. " And how do you intend to test him? " " Simple... with one of his own. I had a girl in the city tip off Daniel Handler. He's the hero type at heart. He'll come for his friend. And when he does... we'll see how he does against one of his own. " Sora said with a sinister smirk. He had indeed tipped off one of the girls in town about Yukashi's whereabouts. He was given a flash drive with Project Espers information. Some of it even classified, meaning that if this got back to John Dealer, Sora would be considered a traitor. And maybe he was. The Flash Drive had encrypted files which had there most recent move location within its coding. Sora knew that Daniel would crack this sure enough and make his way to where Yukashi had been sure enough.

As Yukashi was released from his holds, a bright red fume of smoke would seep from the pod he was released from as he stood with an almost glorious like glow. " Wake up... Officer Sanada. Or better yet Experiment One. "

## Experiment One

[12/26/2015 1:42:47 AM] Bitch: (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UBSKSIxnGjI )

High in the sky is a small man sized object that soars a couple thousand feet in the air. Bright silver Vibranium-Hard Light wings reflect off the sunlight that beats down on it. A bright red mask covers the face of the world famous Super Soldier, Daniel Handler. His arms are down at his side, he moves through the air at speeds over 200mph. While he flies to his desired location, he begins to show images and information about Project Esper. The information was both class and unclassified information about this group and where they took Yukashi, a member of The Red Knights team. With the files being cleaned and cleared by Jayleen, Daniel does everything he can to examine and learn from these files.

“This looks like something Dez would do, Jay…” Daniel says with a somewhat somber tone of voice at the realization of what is happening to one of his teammates.

“It also seems like something that seems a little too easy.” She replies back to him while her digital body stands on the left side of his HUD.

“You got that feeling too?”

“Some girl tips you off about where one of the Red Knights is hidden…After weeks of investigation there had been no leads and now the entire case gets closed because one girl has all the answers…And she just gives them to you…All seems like a lot of hoopla to me, Danny…And yes…This is exactly the kind of thing Dez would do.”

“Didn’t he have a plan for you to be given a physical body? You know…before I stole ya and all.”

“He did. But then he realized that a physical body would have made my telepath abilities weaker. With a body I’d be limited to what my body could reach. Knowing Dez he would have found a way to expand my reach even if I am in a physical body, but he had more to deal with when his friend Jacob wanted to go on a mission.”

Daniel laughs a bit at the attitude in Jayleen’s voice when she mentions Jacob. “Well now you are happy to be living the dangerous life with your ole pal, Danny. No need to just waste your talent away in some lab…”

He conversation between the two of them would continue for an hour or so before Daniel gets close to where he needs to be. The coordinates had shown that they were somewhere in old Missouri. Daniel didn’t know much about the place other than people liked to joke that the state was only there for “Misery.” Daniel lowers his body in a quick descent so he can plant his feet onto the ground. His combat boots land on old run down concrete that has been vegetated over by years of not being up kept. Vegetation surrounded the old facility, making it look like no one has been here for decades if not centuries. But Daniel knows better than to judge a book by its cover.

Jayleen begins to scan the entire area, revealing the interior structure of the building itself. It doesn’t take long for Daniel to find out where Yukashi is and to use his stealth training to get into the building. Even though he is being set up for a trap, his tactics would be perfect to keep himself hidden if there was actually a point to remain hidden. Only ten minutes after finding the building does Daniel make his way into the room where Yukashi is being released. An air vent cover falls from the ceiling and hits the ground to bounce a few feet to the right. Following the vent is the large Super Soldier body in all its awesome badass glory.

Daniel hits the ground with a silence fall and his eyes quickly catch sight of Yukashi. His golden dagger on his utility belt would begin to glow brighter now, with the spirits beginning to speak to Daniel. It doesn’t take Jayleen or the spirits to give Daniel the idea that something is very wrong here. His hazel-green eyes squint down to Yukashi underneath the mask. He stands firm almost ten feet away from Yukashi, standing confident and stubborn.

“You aren’t going to like this, but we are too late. Scans are showing that Yukashi is alre-..”

But before Jayleen can finish, Daniel nods his head with an angry, “I know…” Daniel remains quiet for a few seconds before finally speaking out to Yukashi. “It’s time to come home, Sanada!...And I will bring you back…Even if I have to force you…” And after saying that, Daniel’s fingers begin to rub against the holsters to Jack and Jill, ready to move if Yukashi forces his hand.

[12/26/2015 2:48:22 AM] The Drunken Monkey: For the next couple of weeks Yukashi would be undergoing certain changes to his bidy he was oblivious to. In his mind Yukaahi was elsewhere. He was in a dream type state but to him it was like he was perfectly fine. Instead of being blown up Yukashi was sitting comfortably in his hospital bed. A nurse would come in holding a clipboard. "It seems you've only recovered minor ijuries to your legs. You'll have to stay here for a little extra evaluation." The nurse spoke in a sultry tone when she reassured him that his stay would be longer than expected. "Oh and it seems some of your team mates have come to check up on you." As she said that Kin and the rest of the Red Knights would come in. "Damn it Yu Yu. I leave for a couple hours and you're already getting blown up." Yukashi would have groaned as Kin scolded him. "We're just glad to see you're okay Yukaahi." Said Trevor.

For the next coming days Yukashi was going under physical therapy with the nurses.  On the day he was released from the hospital Yukashi was met by Kin standing in front of his car that was totaled on their first meeting with Titan Force. Yukashi couldn't help but crack a smile. "Yu Yu..." Yukashi heard a familiar women voice out the side of his ear. To turn his head he would see that it was his own mother who died during his earlier years on the force. Yukashi was shocked by the imagine of his mother alive and well. It was enough to break him down. Yukashi walked up to her slowly. "M-mom?" Yukashi and his mother both hugged eacher before she looked back to him this time with rotting skin. "Wake up..." Yukashi was spooked to see he talking corspe as i kept repeating the words wake up.

(https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ns7fNPiNiNc)

From then Yukashi's world was turned back upside down the moment he open his eyes to a blurry sight that only got clearer by the second. " Wake up... Officer Sanada. Or better yet Experiment One. " Walking out of the pod Yukashi was taking the first steps of his new life.   Yukashi looked at his surroundings a bit comfused. He looked down to see his hand seeing as it was completely automail. His brown eyes grew at the shock of his new body. Looking off he'd see his reflection off the wall of his new body. (http://media-cache-ec0.pinimg.com/736x/84/03/b4/8403b4ece1c6c058841744665050ab89.jpg) He was different, he could feel the change in his body as he clenrched his fist he had an angry look on his face. It was at that moment Yukashi heard Daniel make it in the room. It was a familiar face to Yukashi but at the moment he was powerless to feel the need to attack his fellow Knight. “It’s time to come home, Sanada!...And I will bring you back…Even if I have to force you…” Letting a mean frown rin across his face two lens would cover his eyes as a targetting hud would come up showing Daniel to be his enemy. (http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr\_m7dpujsJUZ1qd7m1so1\_500.gif) At that very second Yukashi would take off straight for Daniel moving at break neck speeds. It wouldn't take Yukashi no time to get up the the knight. In about 0.8 seconds Yukashi would be in front of Daniel performing a uppercut directly into Daniel's chin. To the untrained eye one could say that Yukashi was moving as a blur. Of the uppercut was successful Daniel's jead would fly backwards sending his body right behind it. With the targeting system he'd be able to keep track of Daniels movement. In the case that the attack was avoided or blocked Yukaahi would react accordingly bracing himself for any counters measures his opponent could throw at him.

(https://soundcloud.com/user137163013/attack-on-titan-the-reluctant-heroes?in=steven-torres-832214661/sets/themed-music )

Once Yukashi begins to make the charge towards him, the Super Soldier eyes begin to flutter a bit at how fast Yukashi is moving now. The upper cut moves like a blur to normal eyes and Daniel remains motionless to make it seem as though he is unable to react to such speeds. But in reality, Daniel is seeing all of this through his HUD. Once the metallic fist of Yukashi’s comes to hit underneath the chin portion of the mask, the impact would create a loud metallic crashing sound. The sound of vibratory metals come together to echo throughout the room. It might seem like a shock to Yukashi but Daniel’s body would remain in its stationary position!

At the very moment that Yukashi’s fist hits Daniel’s helmet, the super soldier would thrust his right hand forward in the form of a standard right cross. Swinging his hips with the punch to add some more power, Daniel attempts to hit Yukashi milliseconds after he hits him. The fist that Daniel swings forward with the right cross is covered in a metallic style gauntlet that is the same metal as the helmet that just took Yukashi’s punch. On top of the strength of his super soldier serum, there would also be an added sense of power to the punch that stems from Yukashi’s own attack.

What his fellow Red Knight teammate is unaware of is that Daniel’s armor is designed and created by the extremely rare metal known as Vibranium. This metal has the ability to not only absorb energy, like Kinetic Energy released from Yukashi’s punch, but can also dispel said energy in the form of an attack as well. Though his years of working with the armor set, Daniel has mastered the proper use of vibranium and how to properly utilize its workings in fights. This can be seen in multiple instances where Daniel will gladly take an impact to get the energy from said attack to only see it unfold on the very person who has attacked him. This is also why Daniel is able to move so fast when being hit. Because he essentially “sees” what is coming from years of experience with the vibranium, he can and does react faster because of his foresight of the situation.

If the rights cross where to make contact, the vibratory echo would appear once more with Yukashi feeling the full effect of Daniel’s punch! Along with his own strength, Yukashi would feel the effects of his own punch being sent right back to him. Whatever force was put behind his punch would then turn against him to send him flying straight into the pod he just came out of. If the punch were to miss, the energy gathered by Yukashi’s punch would remain in the metal to still be used later. But Daniel’s keen fighting prowess and tactician mind would continue to allow him to react with the most strategic movement after swinging the first punch.

After the first punch, if contact was made, Daniel would reach down to his holsters once more to pull out his pistols; Jack and Jill. If Yukashi moved at all, Daniel would raise his hands up to fire out two rounds from the magazines. These rounds would be standard R.I.P. rounds with their “seeker” traits being activated. What makes this pistol special is the Magnetic Attraction with the Uranium rounds. When fired, the electromagnetic force within the pistol gives each Uranium Round an attraction to other technology. Meaning that the bullets act like seeker bullets to other technology. In other words, with both bullets being aimed out towards Yukashi’s chest, if he were to move out of their path or try to evade them the bullets would follow that new path like Seeker Missiles. Of course this is not a trait Yukashi has ever seen Daniel use before with his bullets so this would be a new to him. The bullets also are not technology themselves, using the attraction to Yukashi as the target and not an actual cybernetic targeting system that can be reversed by other technologies.

If Yukashi were to be impacted with either or both bullets, the R.I.P. rounds would do their job of releasing the Uranium shrapnel through his body from wherever their entry point is on his body. The R.I.P. rounds are designed for most damage possible out of a bullet. With its flower like design, the shrapnel can ricochet off bones and travel throughout Yukashi’s body if he is even pierced by the pistol rounds of Uranium. With the highly durable metal and the power similar to be on par with a Barrett .50 Caliber Sniper Rifle, there is not many metals in the world that can’t be pierced by the R.I.P. rounds.

After firing these two rounds at Yukashi, Daniel begins to set Jayleen up for what she does best. “He’s all teched out so you know they gave him some type of abilities…”

“What exactly do you have in mind, Danny?”

“Load up the Hydras…” Daniel orders as he keeps his head on a swivel for anything Yukashi might have to bring.

“How many do you want loaded?” Jayleen asks.

“All of them…I don’t want anything stopping you from shutting him down once you get sent…” And with that order, Jayleen would begin to load up her Hydras and prep for deployment when ready. (Intro Post to Prep)

[12/26/2015 9:02:15 PM] The Drunken Monkey: Yukashi's collided with the metal helmet protecting Daniel's bare skin. Yukashi instantly felt the huge return pressure from his own attack which was enough to make his Physiopharmaceutical Augmentations go off. The very second Yukashi felt the pain vibrate back to him his arm his Minimal Pain Response system would come on. From that point on Yukashi was insanely more acceptable to pain dished out by Daniel. Even though the pain was there Yukashi was a lot less repsonsive towards it.

(https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=08BxWEoOb-c)

Instead of the normal groan or yell in pain Yukashi would do none of the above. Instead Daniel could hear the mechanical movement going on on Yukashi's left arm. His for arm would open up a bit in the back, coming out of the elbow a hidden blade which was about a foot and a half out in length. The blade would be in a rectangular shape with a flat tip. That at all didn't stop it from being anyless sharp. The blade was made out of the same material Yukashi's new body was made. This was also a trait of Yu-yu's Mechanical Augmentation. The blade shot out at an insane speed moving about the same of a speeding bullet. The blade would barely move Daniel's fist out of the way just tipping Yukashi's side. All the while Yukashi was shocking himself with just how fast he's become. This speed and combat prowess was something all too new to him. Keeping his uppercut in the same position Yukashi's right hand would open up from a fist to a palm in the blink of an eye. At that point Yukashi would attempt to go for a grab to Daniel's chin. If Yukashi was successful in grabbing his oppoenent's chin Yukashi would draw the eletrical currents from his armor amplifiying Yukashi's ability to draw power from electrical currents, electricity, and all forms of plasma. The process of him doing this however would prove hazardess to Daniel as every second he'd fell volts of electricity shocking his body from his armor as Yukashi drained power from Daniel's armor. Seeing the distance Yukashi's palm was from Daniel's chin it's seemed more than likely he'd be able to latch on. Yukashi was quicker and stronger than he'd ever believe. But all that was nothing compared to how he'd have the urge to hurt his own team member. Yukashi was being controlled and he was powerless to do anything.

[12/27/2015 1:04:30 PM] Bitch: Because Daniel’s punch had been averted and not actually given a release of the built up energy that had been previously gathered, it still remains inside of the armor set that Daniel is wearing. Seeing the hidden blade though does spring up an idea for Daniel. After the punch is parried, Daniel looks down to see the fist that had hit his chin quickly taking a grip of his face mask. That is when Daniel lifts up his left arm to take a grip on Yukashi’s forearm. If he got the grip, Yukashi would be able to begin taking the electrical power from Daniel’s suit.

While doing this, Daniel’s HUD begins to static a bit but the man inside of the suit shows no sign of worry about the situation. He actually begins to smile underneath the mask. Even with the electrical surge that is flowing around his armor, the vibranium capabilities keep him safe inside of the suit as this happens. He already has multiple plans created to get out of this situation but there is something more important occurring in this motion that Yukashi making. The new mechanical body of Yukashi would be able to feel the electrical power surging through him. WIth this attack that Yukashi is completing, he is opening up his own body to be exposed on an electrical level. For him to absorb energy there must be a pathway from Daniel’s armor set that flows into Yukashi’s physical being. And Daniel takes full advantage of that process.

(https://soundcloud.com/mostafa-adli-2/erens-berserk-theme?in=steven-torres-832214661/sets/themed-music )

Once Daniel needed to see what he needed to see, the time for action would begin.  With his grip on Yukashi’s forearm still active, the cyborg would be surprised at the fact that he is not the only one with a hidden blade. Through thought alone, Daniel is able to activate the hidden blade in both of his forearm protectors. From the left forearm protector, the vibranium hidden blade would shoot out from below Daniel’s wrist and attempt to pierce through Yukashi’s forearm! With the scans of Yukashi’s body, Daniel is fully aware of the metal that Yukashi is made out of. The Vibranium blade would rip straight through Yukashi’s arm and appear on the other side with a bright vibratory shine. Even with enhanced reflex timing and cybernetic enhancements, the blade shoots out at point blank range; literally needing less than a few milliseconds to be sprung out from its hiding position and through Yukashi’s arm. With Daniel’s strong grip on the forearm, it would be hard to outstrength the Super Soldier to rip the arm away from the grip as well. Lastly, this is occurring during the time that Yukashi is focused on taking the electrical power and this motion would be unpredictable due to the fact that Yukashi nor at any other point, has the hidden blade ever been exposed to know about.

Once that is complete, Daniel would then swipe his right arm down towards Yukashi’s forearm that has been impaled by the left hidden blade. Daniel is attempting to use his second hidden blade to actually slice Yukashi’s arm off at the base of the forearm moving up towards the shoulder. Daniel’s speed would seem inhuman, showing Yukashi just how much a Super Soldier can accomplish. His arm moves with an actual blur from the speed he is able to reach in this short swift movement. If he were successful, the vibranium blade would slice right through the golden titanium arm and release Yukashi from his grip on Daniel’s head. If the attack were to miss however, Daniel would be able to react accordingly to either scenario of the hidden blade attacks. Yukashi however would not want to keep his hold on Daniel for longer than what Daniel had originally allowed.

Once these two attacks are either completed or misses, Daniel would force himself to take a five foot leaping bound away from Yukashi. The hidden blades would be retracted back into their hiding places on the forearm protectors and the Super Soldier continuing to stand with a confident stance. If Yukashi’s arm had been cut off, Daniel would reach up with his left hand to remove the arm from his face. If it hadn’t Daniel would have no need to complete this motion. But there is one thing that is constant between the electrical absorption and the hidden blade attacks. While his HUD begins to return to him, there is something missing from the HUD that brings Daniel to keep his focus on Yukashi.

Down at his hip, the golden dagger begins to glow much brighter. Inside of Daniel’s mind he can hear the spirits of the blade speaking to him about the battle. Hearing their words brings the confident Super Soldier to smirk once more before he replies to them in their native tongue.

“E kore e ahau i hiahia mo tenei whawhai a koutou . Ko reira kua ki runga ki .” His tone of voice is strong and very confident in the words that he says to them.

With the distance between them, Daniel clenches his hands into fists and waits to see what Yukashi wants to do next. Daniel already sees the end of this fight. (2 post charge)

[12/28/2015 12:14:48 AM] The Drunken Monkey: Yukashi’s eyes were squinted as he grit his teeth and he drew power from Daniel’s armor. The man could feel himself growing in strength the second he started drawing electricity from Daniel. Seeing as how Yukashi was already at peak point of health the excess power being added from Daniel at this moment was boosting Yukashi times ten. At this point Yukashi was a lot more aware of what was going on in the fight. He was able to react to situations a lot more efficiently meaning he was a force to be reckoned with, not to mention his combat speed would increase significantly.

Yukashi felt the sudden incision of Daniel’s hidden blade the moment Daniel grabbed onto his right forearm. It was at that very second that his hand which was drawing power would stop at that moment and from there Yukashi would simply increase his grip immensely. Depending on the durability on Daniel’s helmet he could see it starting to dent inwards due to the sheer amount of pressure coming from Yukashi’s hand. Daniel would probably be surprised to see Yukashi not even wince at the pain of being stabbed through the arm thanks to his pain response system. During the incision of Yukashi’s right forearm his beady augmented eyes would move off to the left as he saw something coming his way.

Combined with the already peaked reflexes of Yukashi plus the enhancements to his body Yukashi was able to react to the hidden blade coming to take his arm off. Yukashi’s arm still in its previous position he’d have just barely enough time to stop Daniel’s arm. Retracting his hidden blade from his hand Yukashi moving at record breaking speed he’d move his palm in the direction where Daniel’s wrist was moving going to grab it before it was able to make contact with Yukashi’s arm. Seeing how fast Daniel was moving Yukashi’s grapple was more than assured of him. The exact moment Yukashi felt contact with Daniel’s wrist and Yukashi’s palm he’d hold his grip firmly bringing down intense amount of pressure onto his wrist going to bend his hand backwards hoping to dislocate them where he stood. If this was possible Yukashi would break Daniel’s wrist leaving him with an intense pain depending on exactly how much the suit protected him.

When Yukashi tries to crush the helmet with his new found strength, Daniel simply smirks from underneath the helmet knowing full well that it is just a waste of energy on Yukashi’s part. With Yukashi not feeling any pain from his arm being impaled by the hidden blade, it makes Daniel feel like the Yukashi he once knew is no longer in there. That causes his smirk to disappear and his determination to save his friend takes over. Daniel is not the kind of person to beat around the bush about these kinds of situations, having been in similar situations before with his life in the military. He has had to kill Super Soldiers of his own kind because they lost their way or just simply went crazy out in country.

Once Yukashi catches Daniel’s arm, his HUD begins to show the signatures of Yukashi trying to break through the Vibranium metal. The output of energy that he uses to try and break the armor only fuels Daniel’s energy levels with the Vibranium actually absorbing the energy that he is releasing. The battle for a dominate position is shown by each man holding onto an arm with yukashi having Daniel’s right arm and vice versa for Daniel. Realizing that an opportunity has opened up, Daniel actually begins to laugh.

His eyes stare down at Yukashi through the HUD as he says, “You know…For all these upgrades you have…You sure know how to leave yourself open.”

And just as he says that, the hidden blade that is still impaled in Yukashi’s arm would release its secondary capability in an attempt to take the arm. These blades also hold a special trait to them hidden within the forearm protectors. When stabbing a subject about one cubic foot (or 28 litres) of gas stored at 800 psi is rapidly injected deep into the wound site. The injected gas causes much more damage than a single knife wound, both from the displacement of internal organs and from the freezing effect of the free expansion of the gas. This weapon injects a freezing cold ball of compressed gas, approximately the size of a basketball, at 800psi nearly instantly. The effects of this injection will drop many of the world's largest land predators. The effects of the compressed gas not only cause over-inflation during ascent when used underwater, but also freezes all tissues and organs surrounding the point of injection on land or at sea.

In simpler terms, the gas is released at 800psi in the already exposed wound that Yukashi has. While releasing the gas, Daniel thrusts the knife to the left so that the gas actually causes the arm to shatter into pieces! The freezing capabilities of the gas would cause Yukashi’s forearm circuits to short out from the freezing temperatures. So as Daniel originally came to want to slice the arm off, he now takes advantage of the placement of his blade to actually shatter it into pieces from the impact zone. This is no way is saying that the explosion of gas causes the arm to explode, but rather the gas rips through the already cut and torn portions of Yukashi’s arms. Similar to how a fire cracker being held in someone’s hand will cause that hand to explode, Yukashi’s arm would simply detach from the explosions. He would still have his arm from the forearm up, but Daniel would be able to take the hand that Yukashi has from this explosion of gas.

Because of the fact that Daniel’s blade never got pulled out of Yukashi’s arm, this attack would be completed based on the fact that Yukashi forced it to become possible. After freeing his left arm, Daniel would still feel Yukashi’s grip holding onto the right arm tightly. That is when Daniel uses quick thinking to keep his left arm up after taking Yukashi’s arm. At this point in time Daniel begins to struggle with the fact that he might have to actually put Yukashi down permanently rather than save him. His left arm prepares to both complete another offensive maneuver but can defend more offensive attacks if needed. Daniel’s eyes stare up at Yukashi simply waiting for something.

“I can’t keep him busy like this forever, Jayleen…You better be finding the key to this…” He says to himself. (3 post charge)

## Final Jeopardy

[12/31/2015 10:42:55 AM] The Drunken Monkey: (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WeE0GFs7gWs&index=1&list=PLynQ\_6yRUEkcSlUbmm5Gs417B\_LSMftKr)

“You know…For all these upgrades you have…You sure know how to leave yourself open.”

Before Yukashi could even think of a comeback he felt something happening in his arm which was going to really get under his skin. At that moment Daniel had released a gas which was used to ultimately shatter Yukashi’s arm leaving his forearm and up with Daniel. Yukashi’s HUD would start too static the moment his arm was taken from him. His eyes squinted and his teeth gritted as he was starting to become annoyed at the fact that this was happening to him.

Still having Daniel’s right arm in his left hand grip Yukashi would moving his feet. Then Daniel would hear a small sound coming from Yukashi’s left arm. And at that moment Yukashi would attempt to throw Daniel off his feet and send him hurtling through furniture in the lab crashing through supplies and equipment ultimately destroying the lab. Yukashi didn’t want to but he knew he was powerless to attack Daniel which angered him more. Regardless however If the throw was successful Daniel would’ve made of path of destruction from the violent throw Yukashi had just sent him on.

Yukashi stood there holding the place his arm would have been. Small amounts of blood would drip down to the ground as his HUD interface through his lens would static coming in and out until finally reasserting itself. A sign on the HUD would come up showing his power level was failing. “…” Yukashi looked at Daniel as he waited to see what his next move was going to be. Depending on the attack Yukashi would react accordingly to it. With a furrowed brow and squinted eyes Yukashi prepared himself for incoming attack.

[1/2/2016 5:24:16 PM] Kanye: After  bit of time, the battle would continued until the final moment when Yukashi would have gotten blown up and seperated from his comrade turned rival. Sora would have hopped up in hopes of continuing to gather data from the battle but soon enough they would have been blasted apart. Before Sora had time to rush in after the two of them with his crew of Esper SOliders. He was stopped by John Dealer whom shook his head in disagrement. " We have the data needed. Experiment 1 has passed the test. A but faulty, but we can make more upgraded details later. With his Data, and Nik's Data. Were one step closer to our final weapon. " Dealer said looking over at Sora signaling him to follow behind. Sora would have shook his head as he eyed the explosion before finally following behind Dealer with a slight scowl on his face.
