Chapter 3: Destiny Odyssey - Bio-Booster Armor Guyver II

Mt. Minakami, also known as Relic's Point, the head technological station in for Cronos in Japan. Mt. Minakami was in fact hollow beneath its rock walls, housing a large scientific facility through out the whole mountain, and deep below it as well. What made this facility so important, is the fact that the last remaining creator's ship is stationed there, abandoned from when the creators arrived and created the majority of the wildlife in the early stages of the earth's development. The ship, believe it or not, is organic in nature, any injury to its surface is eventually regenerated, rather quickly in fact. In addition, if its outer shell is pierced, it releases a very acidic liquid that eliminates the cause. The creator's ship was also where the Guyver units, the objects that transform an individual into a Guyver, were discovered.

Despite the strength of the Cronos corporation, there are people inside it that would like to see Cronos destroyed, and a set of scientists no less. Dr. Shiyu Odagiri was one of those scientists. He was the deputy head of the "Basement" research labs at Relic's Point, and was forced to join the Cronos corporation sometime prior to this current situation. Because of this, Odagiri willingly agreed to house Sho's friends, targets of Cronos. They were only able to meet by the actions of Agito, who blasted a hole in an abandoned construction sight underground near Mt. Minakami, escaping an assault by Richard Guyot, as Zoalord. Why Odagiri was in the area is unclear, but it doesn't change the events occurring up to this point.

By disguising themselves as Cronos soldiers, Sho, Agito, Mizuki, and Cloud were able to slip by security into the basement research labs, which is completely controlled by Odagiri.

"Whoa… it different being in this place under friendly terms…" Sho said in amazement. He broke into Relic's Point before to rescue is father… which didn't turn out so well. "….Its a lot nicer then I expected." Cloud commented, ditching the disguise. "They like to keep their personnel at ease, so they really spend their time with upkeep." Odagiri responded. Shortly after, the door on the right side slid open, revealing a young slightly overweight teenager with short brown hair.

"T-Tetsuro…?" Sho asked, unsure. "Sho…?" He responded back. Sho ran up to Tetsuro quickly. "Your alive!" he practically sang, finding out that his best friend was alive. "Yea! Everyone else is here too!" Tetsuro said, excited. The rest of their group consisted of Shizu Onuma, a young girl who looked after Agito's old mountain hideout and who had been with him for a long time before, Yohei Onuma, an old man, Shizu's grandfather, serving in the same situation as his granddaughter, and Masaki Murakami… a Prototype Zoalord. The two present at the moment were Shizu and Yohei.

"Where's Murakami?" Mizuki asked. One of the other scientists punched in several keys into his computer, and a section of the wall behind them opened up, revealing a large figure with a large Green jewel in its forehead. It was roughly the same size as a human, with several green orbs spread throughout its body. Its color scheme was white and purple in various places of its body as well.

"That's Murakami… we haven't been able to revert him to his human form yet, but he has made a full recovery otherwise." Odagiri said. The room grew silent after that statement. During the confrontation with Guyot, Murakami had transformed into this form. Unfortunately, a Proto-Zoalord is no mach for the real thing. Murakami used every ounce of his strength just to protect everyone from a massive attack by Guyot, that would of killed them all otherwise.

"Crap!" One of the scientists shouted. "What's wrong?" Odagiri asked. The scientists pointed to a security camera. "I-its Guyot! He is coming down here! He must be wanting to inspect the Creator's ship!"

Guyot had been a little on edge recently. Barcas was being very secretive around him recently. 'He must be on to me…that damn remover better be up and running soon!' He thought to himself as the elevator let out. The elevator stops at the base level, where the creator's ship is kept, and another elevator goes down further below from there. He took to steps out of the elevator and stopped to look at the creator's ship. Shortly after his eyes made contact with it, it began to vibrate violently, creating a strange signal and creating what seemed like an earthquake. 'What's…going…on…!?' he thought as the signal affected him, causing his entire body to tense and his Zoa-Crystal to appear in his forehead, as if he was entering his battle-mode.

The signal had effects down below too. Murakami inside his tank began to glow and after a quick flash of light, he returned to his human form. He was fairly average looking with shoulder length purple hair, which was rather wavy. This event didn't go un-noticed by everyone as they quickly helped him out of the tank. He was still unconscious, but had finally returned to normal.

Shortly after Murakami's recovery, the vibrating of the ship stopped, and Guyot also returned to normal, and re-adjusted the tie he was wearing. '…It can wait, I need to see what the hell just happened.' he thought to himself, getting back into the elevator. Barcas was going to receive a full report on this when they next met. The ship acting on its own Is rare, had hadn't happened in over 10 years, since a large number of earthquakes happened in the area that led to the ship's discovery in the first place.

Murakami's eyes snapped open and quickly focused. He was in a white room, it looked something like a nurses office. No one was in the room at the moment, although someone quickly entered to check up on him. "Murakami? You awake?" the voice asked. It was Mizuki, who was overjoyed when Murakami answered with a "Yes." She quickly ran over to Murakami, asking how he was. "I'm fine, no complains here" He answered. "That's good, we were all worried about you." she said back, relieved.

After awhile of them talking, Cloud entered the room. "Who's the guy with the spikes?" Murakami asked, receiving a glare from Cloud in response. Mizuki gave a nervous sigh. "Yea… he doesn't like comments like that." She said nervously. Murakami laughed a bit, saying "I see!" The tension quickly faded. "So then, why is he here?" Murakami inquired, curious about Cloud's reason for being here.

One explanation later…

"Strange story, sounds like you've had it rough." Murakami said in response, leaning back in his bed. Cloud shrugged. "Not really. Where I'm originally from it was worse. I know it may be hard to believe, but killing a violent god is easier than stopping someone from becoming one." Cloud said back, making Murakami laugh. "You don't say?" He said. Cloud didn't exactly smile, but he did take off his typical frown.

"Well, I need to take a shower, ill leave you two to yourselves." Mizuki said, leaving a room. Shortly afterward, Odagiri walked in, nodding at them both as a greeting.

"Glad to see your alive and well, Murakami." Odagiri said, closing the door behind him. "I'm glad to be too, what's up?" Murakami asked. Odagiri looked hesitant for a moment, then he stepped forward, handing a paper to Murakami. After looking at the paper, his gaze intensified. "This real?" He asked. Odagiri nodded slowly. "I'm sorry… but one year is your limit." The room grew quiet, but Murakami broke the silence. "…Can I still transform?"

"You cant be serious! In your condition you would-" Odagiri stopped when he saw Murakami's face, he was absolutely serious. He signed and backed down. "Yes… id say you would be able to transform for one hour, but that's it. After that… well, I shouldn't have to tell you what the outcome will be."

"I understand that, but the fall of Cronos takes priority." Murakami said a she handed back the paper. "Well… if your serious about this, I cant stop you… ill see you later." Odagiri exited the room. Murakami turned to Cloud. "No argument?" He asked, to which Cloud shrugged. "Its your life, how you spend it is up to you. You might want to take it easy till its time to act though." Cloud advised, stepping out of the room. "You know, your not half bad." Murakami complemented as Cloud left the room.

Elsewhere…

"Yes sir, we are still looking into the battle. As you know, Guyver I escaped, but we haven't been able to find a single trace of Aptom. Even If he was hit by a Mega-Smasher blast, something of him would have been left behind." A standard trooper was radioing in results of an battle field analysis. The other side sent in its response. "Yes sir, Hyper Zoanoid Team Five is still in the area, they have actually been helping with the work. However… Hyper Zoanoid Team Five member Thancrus was dispatched by Guyver III in combat sir…" Once again, the other side of the radio listened and sent its response. "I understand sir!" the trooper and turned off the radio, running off into the distance.

The trooper soon arrived at his destination. "ZX-Tole sir!" He spoke to the dark figure in front of him. "Barcus wishes to speak with you and the rest of the team when you are available, sir!" The figure stepped into the light, revealing his appearance. He was very tall and rather bulky, looking somewhat like a beetle. "I got it, get back to work!" ZX-Tole yelled. The trooper saluted and marched away. "Gaster! Derzerb! Elegan! Come on out!"

The first to arrive was Derzerb. He was a light gray color, and about as tall as ZX-Tole. HE was even bulkier than him though, and was similar to a rhino in many aspects, with a Giant horn extending from his head. Next was Gaster. He was dull red in color, and had extremely large spherical shoulders. These shoulders had many holes in them, with a small spike protruding from each one. Finally was Elegan. He was dark purple in color with four tentacles extending from his back. His neck was also elongated, ending with his unusual face.

"ZX-Tole," Elegan said, with sounds of sparks in his voice, "What did you call us all here for?"

"Barcus wants to speak with us about what's been going on." ZX-Tole answered. Then a voice echoed in their head, saying "Yes I do…"Zoalords can not only control Zoanoids with their mind, but can speak with them too. Although he wasn't there, they all kneeled to his voice. "From what I understand, you haven't been able to find any remains of Aptom correct?" Barcus asked, to which ZX-Tole nodded in response. "I see… I still don't know the full extent of Aptom's abilities, but it might be safe to classify him as-" HE was interrupted when he heard yelling.

Elegan was shouting at the top of his lungs as shadowy tendrils came from behind them and wrapped around him, pulling him deep into the forest. "Elegan! Use your electric attack!" Elegan complied while in the forest, the attack lighting the forest ablaze, but revealing Elegan and his assailant who was standing behind him, holding Elegan in place. The assailant's body was strange in shape, but its head was clearly human with short brown hair slicked back with a large scar across the left side of his face.

"That face… Aptom!" Derzerb shouted, as Aptom started to laugh. "So you have heard of me? I'm flattered!" Barcus attempted to contact Aptom. "Aptom, what are you doing!?" Aptom laughed again. "Barcus! Long time to talk! Must be difficult to track someone who's mind you can influence at all, right? The only reason we can talk is cause of Elegan here," He finished, Elegan twitching. It actually looked like his body was sinking into Aptom's body, as if being sucked in. "Looks like the assimilation is almost complete, if there is anything you want to say, do so or forever hold your peace!" Now Elegan's body had almost completely fused with Aptom, minus Elegan's shrinking head as the absorption continues.

"You son of a bitch!" Derzerb yelled as he stepped forward and opened his mouth, spewing a huge amount of fire at Aptom. However, he wasn't even fazed by the attack. "Damn it… that's right… Elegan's body is highly resistant to heat…" Derzerb said. Then Gaster stepped up. "Eat Bio-missile, bitch!" The spines in his huge shoulders then fired off as projectiles, each flying toward Aptom. "Sorry I cant stick around, but I have places to be!" Aptom yelled as he jumped off into the burning forest, dodging the projectiles as the collided with the ground, each exploding.

"Fucking basterd!" Gaster yelled as Aptom escaped. Derzerb approached ZX-Tole, who was clutching his fists and shaking. "ZX-Tole… are you alright?" Derzerb asked hesitantly. Suddenly ZX-Tole started yelling at the op of his lungs, and the large white pads on his forearms and legs opened up, revealing red orbs in each one. His vertical horn also opened up near the top, revealing a larger orb.

"RRRAAAAHHHHHH!" He shouted at the top of his lungs, before all of the orbs began firing large bursts of energy repeatedly, non-stop, completely demolishing the burning forest quickly. Both Derzerb and Gaster were shocked by his reaction. Slowly, ZX-Tole began to speak. "That basterd… Aptom… I'm going to crush is fucking skull! No one kills a member of Hyper Zoanoid Team Five and gets away with it! The same goes to Guyver III! I'll kill them both, even if I die in the process!"

"….Quite an interesting turn of events, huh? Cid here, greeting you at the end just as before. Today, I only have two articles for you, but one o them is about the Hyper Zoanoid Team Five, so its like getting six for the price of two! Aren't I Generous? Don't worry, I will not ask for payment until the very end of the story. Once again, enjoy your education…"

Article 1

Hyper Zoanoid Team Five

Series: Bio-Booster Armor Guyver

Race: Hyper Zoanoid(s)

Occurrence: ExtremelyRare

Notes: The best of the best, developed by the Zoalord Barcus himself! This team of five together is nearly unstoppable in combat, each have qualities that either complement each other's abilities, or makes up for another's weakness. The Individual Members are as follows:

ZX-Tole

Notes: The Leader of Hyper Zoanoid Team Five. Has extreme amounts of strength and jumping ability, as well as a well armored body. In addition, he has a grand total of 12 laser blasters on his arms and legs and long large laser cannon in the horn on his forehead. Very protective of his teammates, thinking of them as family.

Derzerb

Notes: Absolute muscle! The strongest member of Hyper Zoanoid Team Five in terms of physical strength. Developed specifically so its body is almost complete muscle. In addition to his physical endurance and strength, he is quite a pyro. He can breath fire in excess temperatures of 3900 Degrees! He can also heat up his own body to the same temperature.

Gaster

Notes: The firepower of the team. Gaster's two large shoulders develop, house, and fire lethal bio-missiles, each with the firepower equivalent to a military tank shell. Also, the two growths on his forearms and spit out two different liquids, that when combine, explode violently. While more physically vulnerable, he makes up for it with his large amount of firepower.

Elegan

Notes: A walking power plant. Elegan specializes with electric based attacks, in upwards of two MILLION volts of pure electrical power! In addition to that massive discharge, he can create an electromagnetic field around himself, rivaling that of the earth, allowing him to actually fly. Also, to prevent his body from being melted from the shear amount of energy, he is extremely heat resistant. Absorbed by Aptom.

Thancrus

Notes: The fastest member of the team. Extremely agile, and also well armored naturally. The blades that take place of his hands are actually High Frequency Blades, similar to the Guyver's. And just like it, It can slice through nearly anything, excluding other objects vibrating at a high frequency. Killed by Guyver III, sliced in half.

Article 2

Aptom

Series: Bio-Booster Armor Guyver

Race: Lost Number

Occurrence: One of a Kind

Notes: A lost number is an experimental Zoanoid that due mutations in transformation, have lost their ability to reproduce (for you perverts, that means he cant have sex). But with that, comes unique abilities and the capability of resisting or outright being immune to Zoalord mind control. Aptom was formally a Zoanoid that could only imitate things he came into contact with. However, after being reprocessed and edited by Dr. Barcus, he not only gain immunity to all Zoalord influence, but he gain the ability to absorb and perfectly mimic. In addition to that, he can also mix Zoanoids he has absorbed to create an ever evolving weapon. He currently has the DNA access to Ramotith, Gregole, a Bio-blaster type Zoanoid known as Vamore, and a specially designed Guyver killing Zoanoid, Enzyme II. And as you have read, he has now Absorbed Elegan of Hyper Zoanoid Team Five. In addition to these already extraordinary abilities, he can regenerate his body, even if its just part of his arm remaining, and he can regenerate to the point from before he was even attacked. With these abilities of absorption and regeneration, he technically has the ability to live forever, and continuously evolve for the rest of eternity…
