00 Otaku Part 6

*It is night time. The group is back at the hotel. Yin-Yang got treated properly and is doing well and Nitsuj is on the phone talking to the Reaper*

(Nitsuj): So how are things going on your part Reaper?

(Reaper): Could be better. I managed to survive the fire and made it safely to your backup system in the basement.

(Nitsuj): What about the projects I was in the middle of working on?

(Reaper): They’re safe and are still in good condition. The fire didn’t seem to damage them.

(Nitsuj): Great. I need you to send my tengu project to these coordinates I’m about to send you.

(Reaper): Will do. Also, the specs on Yume has been completed and she is now ready for her third weapon. Shall I send that as well?

(Nitsuj): Yes. We’re gonna need all the firepower we can get. Oh and as long as I have you what’s the situation on the house?

(Reaper): Not looking good. Since the fire was caused by the Jack Bros. who have no known insurance in our world our insurance company won’t cover the cause of getting the house repaired.

(Nitsuj): Damn it. We don’t have the money to cover the cause of getting the house all fixed up ourselves. At least the Jack Bros. are in the same situation.

(Reaper): Actually their house is back up and everything. Yeah, some weird jacks dressed in cloaks came by a few hours or so after you guys left, did some crazy magic, and rebuilt the house and everything.

(Nitsuj): Really? Well in the case move all of our stuff over to their system for now. Make yourself comfortable and don’t forget to send me those weapons.

(Reaper): Already on the way. Should be there within half an hour.

(Nitsuj): Alright. I’ll talk to you later. Bye.

*Nitsuj hangs up the phone and walks back inside the hotel’s lobby where he goes to sit with Brian, Ashlyn, Isis, Mira, Shizuku, Seras, Yume, Chibi Isis and the Jack Bros.*

(Mira): So, how’s the house situation going?

*Shizuku punches Baron while Seras punches Corbin*

(Baron): I see you’re still mad about that.

(Nitsuj): I’ll tell you guys later. Where’s Yin-Yang?

(Seras): On the roof. She said she wanted to train. I invited her down to the meeting but she said she wasn’t interested in it. I guess she’s still upset about what happened today.

(Shizuku): Can’t say I blame her. Speed was her bread and butter and someone actually came and beat her in that field. That must have been a huge shot to her pride.

(Ashlyn): You guys are being pretty nonchalant about this. You didn’t even go visit her during the operation or recovery, Nitsuj.

(Nitsuj): Yin-Yang’s not the kind of girl who wants pity after a defeat. Give her space and let her work it out in her mind for the time being. I plan on visiting her after this meeting is over. For now, let’s talk about what we’re up against. The weeaboos have called in some heavy hitters to make sure their operation succeeds. So what do you guys have for us?

(Brian): Well it took some research but I managed to find out who are friends today were. First up, the guy you fought against today Nitsuj. He’s a new ally of the weeaboos, they call him the Silver Knight. Real name unknown. Made his appearance sometime in March. Although he’s new to the scene he’s been causing quite a bit a trouble for us.

(Mira): What’s really shocking is that he knows how to use the Aniforce.

(Yume): Not entirely. In order to use the Aniforce one must have a distinct knowledge and love of anime. Even weeaboos in a sense must have a deep love for anime despite their warped thinking.

(Ashlyn): This was my first time seeing him in action. To put him on such an important mission, the weeaboos must have a lot of faith in his skills.

(Brian): Moving on to the AI that attacked Yin-Yang. His name is Miguel and he’s actually part of a larger group of AIs created by the weeaboos in various parts of Europe.

(Isis): So that’s why he spoke Portuguese. He must have been made in Spain.

(Brian): That’s a good guess. He’s a part of a group of AI mercenaries called Les Renegades. Counting Miguel, there are 7 other members we have to watch out for. The first is Alicia the swordswoman with six arms she comes from France. She’s all about style and fashion. The next one is Sebastian the bull man and muscle of the team. Just like Miguel he also comes from Spain. Arthur is the trap of the group. Don’t let his childlike appearance fool you, he’s a demented bastard from the mean streets of England. These next two are twins from Italy. Julietta and Juliette, they are magic users. Julietta is skilled in wind magic while Juliette is skilled in earth magic. They also have a pure hatred for snow and pumpkins.

(Corbin): They sound nice.

(Baron): Yeah especially Juliette. She got it going on.

(Ashlyn): Are they serious?

(Seras): With them, you never know. It’s best to just nod your head and just ignore them.

(Brian): Joining them is another AI from Italy named Lucio. This guy is relatively new and just recently joined the group so we don’t know much about him. The final member is an AI from Sweden named Elsa. She’s the team’s hacker so there’s a good chance she’s the one who hacked our servers earlier today.

(Shizuku): So that’s Les Renegades huh? We can take them.

(Ashlyn): You guys shouldn’t underestimate them. You saw what one of their members did to Yin-Yang? Who knows what the others could do. Besides, unlike you guys they were created for combat. No offence, but just by looking at your specs you were all designed to just be security AIs.

(Seras): Don’t judge a book by it’s cover. We have more surprises than you could imagine.

(Nitsuj): Well either way, we know what we’re going on against. All we can do is do our job and if they get in our way take them down. Now if you’ll excuse me, I have some notes to review for the con and a wolf to talk to. Yume, come with me. I have something to give you along with Yin-Yang.

*Nitsuj finishes his drink and leaves with Yume right behind him*

(Isis): Well seeing as how we have nothing to do. We’ll head back to our room.

(Ashlyn): Hey wait Isis. I was hoping you and I could chat for a bit.

(Isis): Perhaps next time.

*Isis quickly gets up and walks away. As Nitsuj and Yume walk through the lobby they run into Danny and some well-dressed business man with some guy in his mid-20s texting on his phone*

(Danny): Well Nitsuj, you’ve only been here for a few hours and already you’re causing me trouble.

(Nitsuj): Damn it Danny you can’t blame me for what happened this afternoon. Besides Yin-Yang, nobody got hurt. That’s gotta count for something.

(Danny): That still doesn’t count for some of the collateral damage downtown. Luckily, we managed to convince the news we were shooting a movie. A Michael Bay movie but a movie nonetheless.

(Nitsuj): That’s swell. I assume you want me for something?

(Danny): As a matter of fact, yes. I would like you to meet Hogan Dessian. Owner and founder of Dessian Enterprises as well as one of the major sponsors for our tour.

*Hogan and Nitsuj shake hands*

(Nitsuj): Hey yeah, I’ve heard of you guys. The entertainment giant that’s killing it in the anime merchandise.

(Hogan): You’ve heard correctly. With anime becoming a big hit here in the states. I figured I help spread the culture. Oh, and this is my son Nate. He’s a reviewer just like you.

(Nate): Woah! Nitsuj of Project Nitsuj. Meeting you is a huge honor. I loved your review of Negima!? That anime was awful. I got into reviewing anime because of you. Can I have your autograph?

(Nitsuj): Of course. Always nice to meet a fan of the show.

*Nitsuj signs Nate’s book*

(Danny): Nate here will be joining you on the tour so try to be a good influence on the up and comer alright?

(Nitsuj): I’m always a good influence right Yume?

(Yume): Meh.

(Nate): Oh wow Yume. You’re even more beautiful in person. Picture!

*Nate uses his phone to take a selfie of him and Yume*

(Nate): Great, thanks. See you guys at the con.

(Hogan): Well I guess I’ll also turn in for the night. Nice meeting you Nitsuj and best of luck to you.

*Hogan and Nate walk off*

(Yume): Those two seemed nice.

(Danny): Dessian is the guy helping us out on this mission. It’s thanks to him that we’re able to cover up the mess you made downtown. Look, I know I can’t stop you from doing collateral damage but do not and I repeat do not do anything to jeopardize our relationship with Dessian Enterprises or I will personally snap your neck. Understand?

*Little does Danny know he is talking to a plant in the lobby while Nitsuj and Yume get in the elevator and ride it up to the roof while people in the lobby stop to stare and laugh at Danny*

(Nitsuj): Thank you Yume.

(Yume): We were in a hurry. So I figured that was necessary.

*Nitsuj and Yume make it to the roof where they see Yin-Yang training. The tech crew recreated her arm so it’s like she never lost it to begin with*

(Nitsuj): Hey there Yin-Yang. Got a minute to talk?

(Yin-Yang): That depends. Can you talk and dance?

*Nitsuj and Yin-Yang get into sparring poses and begin to spar with each other*

(Nitsuj): So how you feeling after the events of the afternoon?

(Yin-Yang): A lot better than I was earlier. You made a wise move leaving me alone. Chances are I would have bit your head off if you approached me.

(Nitsuj): Yes, well I’ve known you a long time to know when to approach you and when to leave you alone.

(Yin-Yang): It’s not the fact that I lost to him that pisses me off, it’s the fact that he beat me in everything. Strength, intelligence, and speed. The one thing I have the most confidence in and he beat me in it. I know I’m not as strong as Shizuku or as smart as Mira and the others each have their own abilities that makes them stand out but I had my speed and to have someone come and just beat me in it like it was nothing is just frustrating.

(Nitsuj): I get it. Believe me, I know what it’s like to feel completely defeated in your area of expertise and it sucks. But don’t think for one second that means you’re useless to the team. Nobody cracks us up more than you and you’ve always been the most reliable member of the team.

(Yin-Yang): Really?

(Nitsuj): Yeah of course. This guy called you nothing more than a trained housed pet. Trust me, you’re no domestic animal Yin-Yang. You’re the most savaged wolf I’ve ever seen and you will get your chance for revenge because apparently this guy is working with the weeaboos.

(Yin-Yang): Well that’s reassuring. I look forward to facing him again. But not now. I’ve still got some training to do and I need a new katana seeing as how I lost the other one.

(Nitsuj): Good thing you got me.

*A capsule comes landing on the roof. Nitsuj goes to open it and takes out two briefcases. He hands one to Yin-Yang*

(Nitsuj): I present to you your new weapon.

*Yin-Yang opens up her briefcase to see a new katana that has sparks of lightning flying out from it*

(Nitsuj): I present to you Inazuma no Gōon aka Lightning’s Roar. I composed this katana to better suit your lightning mode. The hilt has a better handle and this bad boy can not only absorb lightning but it can produce lightning. Plus, to give it more of that lightning feel I had it actually absorb lighting multiple times during a storm. Making this sword half metal and half lightning.

*Yin-Yang’s eyes glow with excitement from hearing Nitsuj’s exposition about her sword*

(Yume): I’m not gonna lie. That is cool.

(Nitsuj): But that’s not all. Yume, you’re specs are now and I’m giving you third weapon. Yin-Yang, it’s time.

(Yume): Time for what?

(Yin-Yang): Yume, I’m giving you my lance/spear skills.

(Yume): What!

(Yin-Yang): I never use those weapons so it’s best to give it to someone who’ll make good use of them. How about it Yume? Will you inherit my skill?

(Yume): I would be honor to carry this skill.

(Nitsuj): Great! Now hold still you two. This will only take a sec.

*Nitsuj takes out his phone and points it at the girls where all of a sudden a force field gathers around them. An orb of light comes out of Yin-Yang’s stomach and goes into Yume’s stomach while another orb of light goes into Yin-Yang’s stomach. Once the orbs are completely inside their stomachs the force field vanishes*

(Yume): Yes, I can feel the power surging inside of me.

(Yin-Yang): Hey, what did you put inside me?

(Nitsuj): Your newest weapon skill. I have designed a new weapon that I think you’ll enjoy.

*Nitsuj hands Yin-Yang the other briefcase. She opens it to see that the weapon inside is a kusarigama*

(Yin-Yang): A kusarigama! A trademark weapon of the ninjas! I’ve been wanting to try and use this for months!

(Nitsuj): Yeah, I figured you would like it. I call it Okami no kiba aka The Wolf Fang. This weapon will help you control crowds and strike opponents from far away. So what do you guys think?

*Yume pulls out a lance to see a fox tail key chain on the end of the handle and smiles*

(Yume): It’s perfect. I shall treasure this weapon greatly.

*Yin-Yang just stands there gleaming over her new katana and kusarigama*

(Nitsuj): You alright there Yin-Yang?

(Yin-Yang): I just don’t know what to do with these new weapons.

(Nitsuj): Do you wanna go test them out in the Augmented Reality Training room aka A.R.T for short?

(Yin-Yang): Do they have one those?

(Nitsuj): They have one of those. Let’s go.

*Nitsuj, Yin-Yang and Yume leave the roof and head down stairs*
