Well I'm pissed, William thought.
William had been on security detail for the last time! What ever happened to hunting Vampires anyway? He had been pulled out of the science derision to exterminate them, and guess what? He didn't even get the dog! Now they had disappeared, and you know what? He was going to find them. AND KILL THEM! It was their fault he was stuck playing mall cop anyway. Had they just stayed on Duerme, he could have killed them by now. Or at least be chasing them down rather than getting yelled at day to day by snobby teenage girls. And those frigkin Mechera... skrew them too! They sucked, the mall sucked, bratty girls sucked, the Duerme Police Department sucked, and most importantly vampires sucked. Well he'd show them! I'm going to walk into the DPD evidence rooms, and begin an investigation into the whereabouts of the vampires, and no-one's gonna stop me! he thought to himself, and that's what he did. Sort of. He immediately left his post. Just on a whim, he left it. Oh man, he thought. By tomorrow evening, I'll have put Buffy in her place!

Someone would approach Will, a lone Narrikian clad in a black business suit. William was a person of interest due to his unique abilities and would be a quite useful army man should he be recruited. Of course he would need more training likely and better equipment but that was beside the point. Celso would be pleased by this latest acquisition thought Zane as he walked over to him. "Job not suiting you?"
-
"No, it's not," he said. "So I'm gonna go my own way, and do what I signed up to do!"
-
"Well perhaps there would be other opportunities to do what you would sign up to. What you don't know is that the Narrikians withdrew from the Mechera quite a bit ago for the most part. I represent a certain interested party who would like to grant you more than your current arsenal and assign you to a certain mission should you be willing to lead said mission. Of course said mission would be highly dangerous. It is not one for rookies or those with short fuses. Perhaps we could talk at one of the cafes on this planet and plan things out...if you do decide to accept...." Zane would hand William a business card before opening a door way and leaving from that area giving William time to think over the arrangement. The business card contained his phone number. William would be quite the useful asset given his abilities and if they modified the virus a little that existed in him well they had the beginnings of a Super Soldier Serum right there. Before he left, Zane would pull out a bag and toss it to William and inside he would find a couple of rapid solar laser gauntlets. "Something for you...should you decide to join up."
-
Frigcain prettyboy, William thought to himself. He had trusted someone who said he would be able to lead into battle before, and ended up leading the battle against shoplifters. Could he trust this guy? Did he even want to? No, definitely not. However the guy had called him a rookie with a short fuse, and while that was a fairly accurate statement, William was not about to let that one go. He'd show up for lunch all right. And who knows? Maybe he'd get to kill vampires?
-
An hour later Zane would be waiting at an empty caf? except for the staff whom he had bribed a considerable amount to look the other way. Thus he was able to bring some new technologies into the place so that those could be used. William the virenlupen as he had earned the nickname would be equipped with some more advanced stuff than he was used to. Better equipment meant that William could get the job done and handle this task properly. The equipment he carried would be some of the stuff that had never been used but now would be put to the test and given to William. Neurological Biological Defense Nanites would be part of the equipment that had been brought with him so as to update the immune system of the Virenlupen so he would be ready. A couple of GRW-22s had also been brought by Zane in order to arm the new acquisition to the Neo Narrikian Empire. The guy could use the fire power likely. The job would be a simple on, in and out before anyone even knew it at least the first assignment would be.
"Your task is a simple one...a test if you will.. there is a certain set of relics at a museum at these coordinates...that we believe should not be on display and should be removed from the location." A PDA would be slid across the table to William when he arrived. "The first of the items is a simple drinking chalice or so it appears, but it is rumored that the contents of it can heal wounds at an astounding rate...you can see why some people in high places are interested. The second is a set of metal gauntlets that have a small depression in them like a boulder. They seem to be able to amplify Earth elemental attacks channeled through them and augment strength about 10 to 1. Would be quite useful once we duplicate that ability for technology. Of course to do any of that, we need the equipment first."
-
"Wait, wait, wait? You want me for a museum heist?" William said, a feint grin trickling across his face.
-
"This museum heist is a test, to see how good you are at stealth. Here is some new equipment for you." Zane would pull a couple of guns out from under the table and put them on the table as he had already bribed the staff earlier not to take a look at what he carried or to call the cops on him. "These guns fire multiple kinds of ammo including bullets, tranquilizer darts, missiles and what not. They also can shoot dietranium tipped armor piercing rounds. Quite useful for a fire fight I would say but that is not all I have to equip you with today." An old suit of Corpse Armor, a BG thing that had been designed would also be handed over but improved with modern Narrikian science. "This is called a Corpse Armor, an old technology, but quite useful. " The ringer would also be produced and offered to him. "Called the ringer, it turns the mind of people who hear the sonics it generates to mush."
-
"Nice," he said, immediately taking off his shirt to put on the armor.
-
Zane would turn the other way, and let him put on the suit. After that had been done he would close his eyes for a moment and think of how useful this new asset of theirs would be. "You know your former targets? The Vamps? Well....certain scientists need DNA samples from both them and yourself in order to study the virus that is within you to see if there can be made something similar but more of a super soldier thing. It is a project that is in the works, one of the reasons you were chosen other than your PD background and obvious abilities. Also, at some point we could go over what you know of creating fire-balls or similar and work on that should you wish for it to be done. Never know when some more skill could come in handy. As for the robot problem that the Vamps have with them...well we are working on that too should you wish to take the mission to acquire their DNA. "
-
William responded, "Oh the robot wont be a problem. He's big, but he's slowish, and I can dodge his attacks." He was a bit nervous about the idea of these guys making vampire super soldiers, but at least he'd get to do what he wanted: he just couldn't use sunlight. "But I should warn you, they tested the virus I contracted a thousand times, but it never once contracted successfully."
-
"Yes, I am well aware. But technology has advanced considerably since then. "
As Zane would say this above the eatery would come a shuttle. "And our ride is here. Do you want to come with me to the museum or not?"
-
William took this like a solid blow to the ego, which made sense because it was. I trained for years and worked with the most advanced of technologies and new everything about Spanish
(I think Narikian is Duerme's people) medicine while working in the most heavily guarded of secret facilities, and this guy blows it off like it's nothing. Technology advanced my-
"Yeah, I'm coming."
-
OOC:Duerme used to have Narrikians, but after Alaskarine(Embodiment of Emotion) came back, she took Duerme back with the Mechera agreeing to protect the territory as their own as a offering of peace. Jus' saying to clarify it up.
-
"Change of plans. Your new assignment is a tournament. Do whatever it takes to win. "
Zane would hand a file to William. "This file contains information on K2323 Tyrus. It also contains information on a Narrikian you are to capture alive and bring back to Providence, and once you succeed you will receive the coordinates for Providence."
-
"Wait wait wait, what? So the rest of it goes down the drain? I don't get to rob a museum or hunt vamps anymore?!" William said angrily.
-
"You will. After the tournament."
"You are just supposed to enter, and win. When you receive the prize...bring it to Providence as well. We'll let you hunt those monstrocities..but we'll build you some equipment that should level the playing field."
-
He looked down a his armor, and then asked, "Is it because what you gave me is actually crap or are you just giving me more stuff?"
-
"Giving you more stuff. Including a robot of your own."
"Now go to the tournament and win."
"Tell them you'll be participating on behalf of the Neo Narrikian Empire. "
-
"Alright," he said. "Can I have some kind of teleporer device?" William said opening the file.
-
A teleport sphere would be set up for William to use.
"You'll have to rely on your talent in martial arts, and other skills rather than tech use. So here..." Zane put his hand on Will's head and sent knowledge into him, knowledge of all sorts of m. based attacks that he could perform. "This should help you in the tournament."
-
William was caught off guard by this, and stepped back a little. He didn't expect to get a combat lesson uploaded to his brain. Not cool, man. Not cool.
-
"There. Need more lessons?"
Zane would ask this since he did want their first entry to win.
-
William thought for a moment, then said, "Ah screw it. Yeah."
-
Zane would put both hands on William's head and do a maneuver called Opening the Flood Gates, a technique normally reserved for when masters were about to make their apprentices get to their level. But here was something that might work, and so the flood gates of information would spread through the brain of William giving him a repertoire of attacks that those in the tournament might use, and that might help him out in the battle. Once Zane had done this, he would remove his hands and open a portal to the arena for William.
-
William looked over the file one last time, and walked through the portal.
