The Guyver: Rapier Unit - by Owen Ward

All characters in this story are fictional and any relation with real persons is completely coincidential. Based on original characters created by Yoshiki Takaya. Any other characters used in this story were created by me, and therefore are my property (ie... if your thinking of using them then BUTT OUT! unless you mail me and get my permission! hehe) and are copyright of me! :o)

Authors note: Although I like the Guyver a lot I only have a limited knowledge of the full story, I have only seen the animated series Datas 1-12, and the film The Guyver: Dark Hero (Guyver#2) I haven't read any of the graphic novels from Viz, so therefore anything that happens in them that weren't in the toon is not known of by me and therfore of no relevence to this story. Any names in this that are wrong, then all I can say is OOPS! :o)

Any other info I have used in this (ie... Zoanoid names and abilities) have been sourced from the many brilliant Guyver related sites on the net!

This story begins after Sho, Agito, Tetsuro, Mizuki and Murakami (and their two other friends) escape from Mt. Minakami. The two friends (Old man and his daughter, can't remember their names! <doh>) split from the others as it would not be safe for them to stay with them, they seek refuge by fleeing as far South in Japan as they can, where there seems to be very little, or no Chronos activity. The Guvyers, Segawa children and Murakami hire an appartment in a city not too far from Mt. Minakami, so they can continue their attempts to bring Chronos Japan to it's knees.

 

Chapter 1 : Figure in the shadows

After the first assualt on the Mt. Minakami Chronos base, both Agito and Sho knew that if they were to stop Chronos then they would need either a brilliant and fool-proof plan, or a miracle!

Chronos had created a lot more of the Enzyme II type Zoanoids than Agito had thought possible and this was about the only Zoanoid, apart from the Hyper Zoanoid types, that posed a threat to the Guyvers.

It would've seemed that the Guyvers were beaten, as they couldn't beat a number of Enzyme II's due to their vulnerability to the Zoanoids Guyver dissolving fluids, and it was obvious that Chronos would produce a number of these Zoanoinds to protect the base from attack. But the Guyvers weren't beaten, far from it, they now had the help of Murakami. At first he just seemed to be a heavily armed, highly intelligent person with a huge grudge against Chronos. Now they had found out he was a heavily armed, highly intelligent Zoalord with a grude against Chronos!

Having Murakami staying with them also had the added bonus that he could mentally sense any advancing Zoanoids, so it was easier to keep the Segawa children safe.

The new home for the group of friends was at first difficult to find, they wanted to stay reasonably close to the Chronos base but not so close that it would leave Tetsuro and Mizuki open to Chronos attack while the Guyvers and Murakami were fighting Chronos. They also wanted a place that wasn't in a town. They knew that highly populated areas meant that blending in and hiding wasn't a problem but it also put innocent people in risk, and this was a battle between them and Chronos, not the public. They ended up settling for a house in a valley about 50 miles from Mt. Minakami. It was only a few minutes flight time for the Guyvers, and also for Murakami, while it would take almost an hour for Chronos to get their by land, and twenty minutes by helicopter. Therefore it was ideal, if the Guyvers were away and noticed zoanoids leaving to get the Segawa's then Tetsuro and Mizuki would have time to flee.

Agito had a healthy bank account from working with Chronos and also from being the adopted son of the once Director. He bought the house and also paid for all the alterations they had in mind. They made an underground bunker so they had somewhere safe to hide (or rest) if Chronos did find them and attacked.

Once they had all settled into their new home they began to plan the best way to take Chronos down. Murakami gave the best suggestion by far, he thought they should cut Mt. Minakami off from the outside world. This was to be done by destroying any supplies to be made to the base and also by taking out any communications that were outside the base, for example radio masts and satellite dishes that had to be outside the base to work.

The best way to make up any plan is through good organisation and as much information that can be gathered as possible. Sho, Agito and Murakami spent the next two months searching for, and staking-out, any supply routes. While they were doing this Tetsuro and Mizuki would spend many hours colating this information and drawing extremely precise maps.

Top of the list of supplies to stop were any that were vital to Chronos for the manufacture of Hyper Zoanoids, and especially the Enzyme II type zoanoids.

So there it was, they knew where, how and when to attack. Since it was a simple ambush only Sho and Agito would attack, leaving Murakami to protect the children and get them to safety if anything did go wrong, not that it would of course!

Sho and Agito both activated their Guyver units at the house and flew to the ambush site. Guyver1 hid in the tree that they had prepared just for the purpose while Guyver3 hid in a tall willowy bush, it was less important for Guyver3 to be hidden as well as Guyver1 because in the dark his unit was barely visable anyway.

The Guyvers could co-ordinate their attack through the transmission of telepathic messages via the organisms on their backs.

"Can you see them yet?" wondered Guyver1.

"Quiet Guyver1, I'm trying to keep count of the time since we havn't got the luxury of watches in our Guyver form" replied Guyver3 with a hint of annoyance.

Guyver1 looked over the area one last time to make sure that nothing had changed that may interfere with their attack.

Guyver1 quickly swung his head round to look down the road, the sensors on the top of his head had warned him of movement, although he couldn't tell how far away the activity was.

"Guyver1, prepare yourself" warned Guyver3 over the sound of his vibration blades extending.

"No, need to tell me, I'm ready!"

The shadows were highlighted by the headlights from the advancing convoy and they sound of the straining engines became louder. As soon as the trucks were parallel with the Guyvers positions the attack exploded into action. The Guyvers knew exactly what they were doing and begun by slicing the engine bay of each truck into small pieces, preventing the drivers from fleeing or raising the alarm. The Guyvers didn't bother with the drivers themselves, they knew there was a possibilty that they were zoanoids but the merchandise in the back of the trucks was their target. Guyver1 took out the two trucks at the back fo the six-vehicle-strong convoy, destroying the first with a well placed pressure cannon shot and the second by rupturing the fuel tank of the truck with his head laser.

He turned to see Guyver3 walking out of the burning wreckage of the front two trucks. He hadn't used the finesse of Guyver1 and had gone for the savage solution of throwing one truck at the other!

As both Guyvers advanced on the remaining two trucks they were shocked to see the vehicles tearing outwards due to an unknown force inside.

All of a sudden the Guyvers were faced with a couple of squads of zoanoid troopers!

How could Chronos have known?

"Destroy the Guyvers" shouted a Gregoyle type.

The Guyvers glanced across at each other and nodded their acknowledgement. Simultaneously they both jumped into the air and landed in the middle of the two groups of zoanoids.

Guyver3 thrust his hand into the head of a Ramoches type and threw it at a closing Gregoyle type knocking him to the ground and further enraging him. The sensors on Guyver3's head warned him of an attack from behind and in reaction to this warning he swung around with extended vibration blades and the head of a Govilba type fell to the floor. He then grabbed another Ramoches type by the neck and crushed it's throat, dropping it's limp body to the floor.

Meanwhile Guyver1 was having his own 'private party' which so far had resulted in several dismembered bodies at his feet. While in a hand to hand lock with a Gregoyle type Guyver1 used his sonic resonator to rupture the zoanoids eyes. As the zoanoid released Guyver1 and reached for his now non-existant eyes, Guyver1 took his opportunity and sliced the zoanoid in half using his blades.

After a matter of minutes both Guyvers stood in a circle of steadily dissolving zoanoid carcasses, bloodstained and recovering from the suprise counter attack.

"We had better get going, and quickly, Chronos are bound to send someone looking for the convoy" announced Guyver3, breaking the silence.

"Not yet...........sshhh.........." replied Guyver1 hastily.

"Whats bothering you?" asked Guyver3, who by now was extremely puzzled.

"There's something not right, like we're not alone?"

"More zoanoids? My sensors aren't scanning anything"

"I'm not sure what it is.......but........Guyver3, MOVE!" shouted Guyver1, his concern about their surroundings was interupted by a zoanoid scout group sent to find the absent supplies.

Guyver3 was confronted with a Vamore type, who was about to fire his bio-lasers, as he turned to see why Guyver1 had warned him.

Guyver3 flung his arms in front of himself as he prepared for the blast of the lasers. He looked through his splayed fingers at the brilliant white flash, it was as if in slow motion as the ball of light surged towards him. All of a sudden the beam dispersed into thin air, like chalk exploding into dust when you throw it at a blackboard! Then the Vamore type that had fired the beam dropped to the floor, sliced in half at the waist.

A second before the zoanoid was cut into two pieces Guyver3 and Guyver1 noticed an arc of light pass the zoanoid. It seemed that it was actually the arc of light that had split the zoanoid.

Guyver1 rushed over to Guyver3.

"Go" warned a voice that both Guyver1 and Guyver3 heard through the organisms on their backs.

"Wha..... who ar"

"Just GO!" shouted the voice, cutting off Guyver1s question.

Guyver3 looked at Guyver1 gave the nod and they both disappeared into the trees, they knew they had to run through the trees for some distance before they could fly back to the house otherwise Chronos would see them leave, and when they did begin to fly they had to skim the treetops to avoid detection.

Whilst leaving all the Guyvers could hear was the distant sound of screaming, as what ever, or who ever, disposed of the remaining zoanoid troopers.
