Saga 2 Episode 10: The Billion Tanz Man Part 2

Yukashi SanadaGladysMartin Adams

## Aftermath

Yukashi found himself spiraling through the air as debris and other things shot out of the explosion he was just in. His HUD was going crazy coming in and out of static. The fallen Knight crashed through trees and rocks as he crash landed in a dark forest. Yukashi laid there on the ground as snow and dirt started to cover his battered body. The cold air didn’t seem to bother Yukashi much as his vision started to blur by the second. Within a minute Yukashi was sleeping soundly in the snow as his system starting to hibernate keeping his main body warm. Moon was heavy in the sky as it acted like a nightlight for the wildlife within the dark and snowy forest.

“Yo Sanada!” Yukashi quickly found his eyes opening up and him sitting upright in his office chair at the original KPD prescient prior to the event with Danchou. “You coming man we got a 211 in progress in West District 1!” Yukashi looked up to see his partner Brandon Long opening the door to Yukashi’s office. Yukashi with a bit of a confused look got up slowly looking around his surroundings then  quickly nodded and grabbed his Jericho 941 pistol. “Alright let’s go get em!” Yukashi and Brandon quickly ran out of the prescient turning to a standard squad car Yukashi would attempt to open the door before Brandon stopped and looked at him funny. “Whoa, whoa did you fall and bump your head or something? We’re not taking your classic?” Yukashi would look off to the left to see his Ford Mustang still intact despite it being blown up in the Titan Force ambush. Yukashi was stuck with a look of ‘How’ on his face as he just shook his head and ran to the car entering the driver’s seat and Brandon entering next to him through the passenger side. With that the two quickly burnt out the parking spot turning on the single siren on the car’s dashboard.

Yukashi couldn’t help but have the feeling that he’s been through all this before as he sped down the street passing stop signs and stop lights racing towards district 1. Upon getting to the location Yukashi jumped out the car cocking his pistol and taking it off safety. “Alright let’s get in and take these punks down.” Brandon said as he hopped out his side of the car rushing towards the front door behind Yukashi. Yukashi leaned up against the door aiming his gun in front of him ready to fire. “Alright I’ll go in first and you take support.” Yukashi waited for Brandon’s confirmation for a second. “Brandon?” Turning around to look at Brandon he was gone! “Huh?” Just then the building would explode with Yukashi standing right in front of it. Yukashi would have been blown away landing on top of car then sliding down into a sitting position slightly slumped over. Yukashi looked at his arm to see that it was gone. Better yet he saw his current body back in its current state. Looking up at the exploded building he saw that it was indeed his house. Out of the burning wreckage he’d see Brandon walking towards him with tattered clothes and a burnt face. “YOU LET ME DIE!”

## A Walk in The Woods

The phrase would echo continually until Yukashi finally woke up back in reality. “Just a dream…” He mumbled to himself as he looked around the now lit snowed out forest. It seemed he’d slept through the night as the sun was shining down on the cold forest. Getting up off the ground Yukashi could feel his pain response coming back to him as he clenched his shoulder where his arm should have been. “Damn it…” Yukashi shook his head as he walked through the forest for what seemed like eternity. Yukashi could feel his power lowing through the fact that he wasn’t in his perfect state. Yukashi heard a faint nose in the distance as a twig broke beneath somebody or something’s feet. Yukashi stopped in his tracks and heard a low growl. He stopped for a moment to look around but he was too late as a 7 ft tall grizzly bear would jump out swiping its paws at Yukashi knocking him onto the snowy forest floor. Quickly getting up the bear rushed at Yukashi attempting to grapple onto him via its claws. Yukashi weakly dodge the attack then used his strength to send a thunderous right hook into the bear’s face sending it spiraling into a tree killing it instantly. Yukashi found himself stumbling to his knees. That punch took a lot of power out of him causing him to slowly lose balance. “Damn it…don’t die here.”

Yukashi heard even more footsteps this time more human and less growl. “Hey, are you ok?” The battered man looked up quickly seeing a woodsman carrying a hunting rifle. He looked at the damage done to the bear seeing its head busted wide open with brain and blood spilling out. “Geeesh.” The man scratched his hair through his fur hat. “You did a number on him eh?” The hunter walked up to Yukashi attempting to help him up by grabbing his arm. “I gotch-“ The man’s words were interrupted when Yukashi grabbed onto the man’s arm squeezing it with his strength. “OW! Relax buddy I’m trying to help ya!” Shaking his head weakly Yukashi let go of the man and accepted the aid picking himself off the ground he ran his arm behind the shoulder of the man having him hold him up. “How’d you get way out here guy?” “…”  Yukashi kept quiet for most of the walk until they came to a cabin with a garage on the side. “Here I’m sure you’ll be a lot more comfortable in the garage.” With that the man would walk up with Yukashi to the garage door. Soon as the two walked up an interface would open up and an AI would speak out to the man. “Welcome back Mr. Adams.” “Thanks Gladys, I got company with me please make sure he’s well sought after.” “Of course Mr.Smith.” With that the garage door would open and a female stood there standing about 5 ft and very petite for her size.

Gladys grabbed Yukashi picking him up off his feet into her arms. Yukashi grunted a bit as he didn’t enjoy the girl holding him but the fact that she was strong enough to hold him was a surprise in itself. The man would look at Yukashi waving. “I’ll be back in a minute let me just go change clothes right quick.” With that the garage door would close and Yukashi was left with Gladys. The garage itself was very basic nothing too different about it. Of course that was before Gladys walked towards the wall and press a couple buttons and an elevator would open up on the wall. Stepping inside Gladys put Yukashi on a wheelchair that was in the elevator. Sitting him down Yukashi looked around. “What is this place?” “This the Homestead.” Yukashi looked confused at the answer he got. “Who are you people?” “I am Gladys. A fully operational cyborg. And Mr. Adams is an inventor, perhaps the world’s greatest inventor.”  Yukashi was confused it seemed he stumbled on something major. Once the elevator reached its destination Gladys moved behind Yukashi pushing his chair.

 Martin Adams

Once the doors opened Yukashi was surprised to look at the large laboratory. It was something amazing and possitivly the works of a genius. “Ah you’re here!” Mr. Adams spoke as he was now wearing a black suit. (http://media.animevice.com/uploads/1/10882/211612-roger6.jpg) “Name’s Martin Adams.” Yukashi looked at the man then a light bulb went off in his head. “Martin Adams like The Martin Adams. MA Industry Martin Adams?” “Facto!” Yukashi grinned a bit as he looked at the man. “I thought you were dead. That’s what all the newspapers said.” “Seriously, Yukashi, you shouldn’t believe everything you see in the newspaper these people lie for a living.” Martin laughed a bit. “How…” “Do I know your name? Simple DNA. You see while you were dying on my shoulder I took a sample of your blood and ran a back ground check on you. Pretty easy really.” Martin walked up to Yukashi looking at him studying him with his hand caressing his own chin. “A Red Knight huh? I watched you guys on Youtube, awesome work I say, and this is what happened after your accident? News said you were kidnapped. Is it true?” “Yeah, by people I don’t know who.” Yukashi shook his head. “Hm…well you do need a new arm and some minor repairs…I can do it, after all I am THE Martin Adams.” He chuckled a bit. “Sit him on the table Gladys. Gladys helped Yukashi onto the lab table for Martin to work on. “As you know I’m very much Intune with nanotechnology and augmentations. I even gave myself some. I got part of my brain nano=augmented and my hands were mechanically augmented. I could do brain surgery on an ant! HAHA!” Yukashi looked at his hands seeing them move ways no normal person could. “So that’s how you made your business, but why give it all up?” Martin was well on his way tinkering with Yukashi working his magic. “Well, it wasn’t worth it. I mean I loved helping people but I hurt more than I helped. I sold weapons to bad people and helped wars. It wasn’t something I enjoyed doing and this was my way out for a simpler life. Just me and Gladys.” “Do you ever miss it?” Yukashi replied. “Well sometimes I suppose…I’m going to have to put you under…” With that Martin would place Yukashi under a sedative knocking him out.

## Goodbyes

Over the course of a couple weeks Martin worked on restoring Yukashi back to 100% “And that’s it!” Yukashi would open his eyes feeling better than he’d ever felt before. Sitting up Yukashi looked at his arm seeing as it was much better than before. “Thank you Martin.” “No problem.” Yukashi hopped off the table look at the man holding his newly made right arm out for a handshake, with Martin doing the same. After the two talked and went over small things Martin walked Yukashi to a small helicopter. “While you were out I updated your brain. You now speak over a hundred different languages including Pig Latin. Also to learn a new language all you have to do is hear it be spoken and your memory processer will start translating the words for you. You’re ability to learn new things is much more instant. All you have to do is try it out and BAM you know it. Also, since your home is destroyed in Kasaihana I took the liberty to move your new residential address to a much more comfortable side of town. You’ll be getting my old home in the wealthy side of town. All my inventions are yours now Yukashi do with them as you please.” Yukashi smirked. “Thank you Martin.” “No thank you Yukashi, don’t be a stranger either come around some times. You know the address.” The two would exchange a couple words before Yukashi took off in the helicopter going home towards Kasaihana. “Here I come.”
