The Guyver: Rapier Unit - by Owen Ward

We all know that this part of a fanfic is full of the usual blabber, ie, characters based on original story by Yoshiki Takaya, all other characters are fictional, property of me don't use them............. etc...............

So, now that is over, then on with chapter 2!

 

Chapter 2: The Stranger

Guyver1 and Guyver3 landed in the back garden of the house and released the armour from their bodies.

"Who the hell was that?" asked Sho.

"I haven't got a clue, but one thing that's for sure is that whoever it is, they're on our side!"

"How did you figure that Agito?"

"Well I was in for a hell of a blast from that Vamore zoanoid and I don't know how or why, but whatever was out there not only stopped the blast but also destroyed the zoanoid, and as far as we know destroyed the rest of that squad single-handedly too!" retorted Agito.

"But Agito how do we know that they survived?" wondered Sho.

By now they were walking into the kitchen through the backdoor.

"Sho trust me, if someone has the power to stop a bio-blast and kill a zoanoid without being seen by either of us then a squad of mentally stunted zoanoids would be like target practice for them!" said Agito trying to reassure Sho.

"Whats this your on about?" said Murakami who was had walked into the kitchen to greet them and find out whether their mission was a success.

"Just something that me and Sho saw while we were destroying the convoy" replied Agito while winking at Sho.

"So our plans worked out then?"

"You could say that" said Sho walking out fo the kitchen, "I'm going to bed, I'm worn out!"

Sho walked upstairs into his bedroom and just flopped onto the bed, a second later there was a knock at the door.

"Come in" mumbled Sho, almost asleep.

"Hi, I've come to make sure your OK" said Mizuki softly.

"I'm fine, I'm a Guyver, what could possibly hurt me?" said Sho, smiling at Mizuki.

"Well, I just like to know, anyway, I'll let you rest now, sleep well" whispered Mizuki as she stepped quietly out of the door.

Sho turned over and was asleep within seconds.

Sho's sleep was shattered by the piercing sound of the doorbell, he looked through bleery eyes at his clock on the bedside table, 11:30pm, he had only been asleep for about a quatret of an hour but it seemed as though he had been out for days!

Sho heard Testuro shout that he would get it but seconds later Murakami told him he would go instead.

Sho then heard Tetsuro and Murakami break out into a row.

"I can get the door you know, I've been able to do it for years now!" shouted Tetsuro.

"Yes, maybe so, but were you living in a house where no-one knows you live except the other people in the house?" blasted Murakami back at a stunned Tetsuro.

Murakami turned and ran to the door, he cocked the hammer back on his Zoanoid-killer gun and whipped the door open. He looked into space down the barrel of the pistol, no-one stood there. He stepped onto the porchway to look around and stumbled over something which was on the doorstep.

"What the......." said Murakami as he looked at the offending article.

Tetsuro looked down the hall and saw Murakami looking at the floor, he set off down the hallway to see what was so interesting.

Sho looked down the stairs over the banister and saw Murakami and Tetsuro huddled aroung something near the door.

"What is it?" shouted Agito from the kitchen, Sho was thinking exactly the same thing.

Sho felt a hand on his shoudler and spun around knocking Mizuki to the floor.

"oooooffffff, why did you do that?" blurted Mizuki as she landed in a heap on the floor.

"Sorry, you startled me!" replied Sho as he bent down and lifted her back to her feet.

"Whats going on anyway?" asked Mizuki, regaining her balance.

"I'm not sure let's go see" suggested Sho.

Murakami and Tetsuro were soon met by Sho and Mizuki and also Agito, who had wandered through from the kitchen to see what all the noise was about.

"What is it?" asked Agito as he pushed his way past Sho.

"Looks like pizza to me!" said Tetsuro, picking up 5 pizza boxes.

"Hold on, it could be a trap" said Murakami quickly.

"Oh yeah, I forgot about all those bomb threats we've had recently from the huge number of people who know about this house! I bet the topping is pepperoni, cheese, tomato and dynamite, but hold the food, heavy on the explosives!" replied Tetsuro sarcastically.

Murakami playfully slapped him about the head and pushed him into the house, making the others step back into the hallway, and slammed the door shut behind him.

The group of friends bundled into the kitchen, placed the boxes on the table and then sat down at the table.

"Come on let's eat, I'm starving and they'll get cold!" said Tetsuro breaking the silence of wonderment.

"Hang on a minute" said Murkami.

"Your not still going on about exploding pizzas are you?" asked Tetsuro rather smugly.

"Well, aren't you even slightly suspicous?" asked Murakami.

"I'll check them" said Agito picking them up box by box and shaking them.

As he lifted the second box up an envelope was revealed.

"Open it" said Mizuki excitedly.

Agito lifted the flap of the unsealed envelope and read the note.

"What does it say?" persisted Mizuki.

"Sho, it looks like our mystery person didn't have much trouble with those zoanoids, just like I told you!" announced Agito breaking the tension in the air.

Sho looked square into Agitos eyes and said "Eh? what do you mean?"

Agito read the note out loud:

Dear Friends,

I hope you didn't mind me joining in earlier this evening

but I didn't like the fact that the zoanoids were going to

'stab you in the back' so I taught them a lesson.

I hope you like pizzas! I thought you might be hungry

after your battle, I know how you must feel.

I hope to see you again, and if you ever plan to attack

Chronos again then please give me a call, I'm sure that

you know how to contact me!

Goodbye for now

 

"So, does our friend have a name?" questioned Sho, with a look of relief on his face, now knowing that their new ally had indeed survived the slaughter that they had heard while he and Agito were making their way back to the house from the attack earlier.

"Well, it's signed Dave"

"And he is a Guyver too?" asked Tetsuro.

"We're not sure we didn't see him" said Sho.

"Well it sounds as if he is" mumbled Tetsuro with a mouthful of pizza.

"You're a pig Tetsuro, you shouldn't talk with your mouthful!" scorned Mizuki.

"Hey, he is obviously a good guy too"

"You'd say that about anybody who bought you food!" said Mizuki, matter-of-factly.

"Tetsuro, what makes you think he's a Guyver?" wondered Sho.

"He says so in the note!" replied Tetsuro while gorging himself on the food supplied by the absent new friend.

"Well, he doesn't exactly say that" said Sho looking on at the disgusting way Tetsuro disposed of the food.

"He implies it though, how else would he 'know how you must feel' after a fight, and why would he say that he is sure you know how to contact him" proclaimed Murakami cooly.

"Well, I think we can discuss this after we eat!" said Tetsuro.

With unanimous agreement the group of friends set upon devouring the feast before them.

Some time later the friends sat around to discuss the nights events.

"It worries me that a stranger found this place so easily" said Murakami, opening the meeting.

"Yeah, but this Dave person obviously doesn't mean any harm to us, in fact while we where ambushing the convoy he saved Agito" chirped Sho.

"In what way did he save Agito?"

"Well, I think he stopped a bio-blast from a Vamore type zoanoid, he then sliced the zoanoid in two and then disposed of a whole squad of zoanoid troops while we came back here" explained Sho.

"Why do you only 'think' he stopped a bio-blast?"

"Agito will explain" said Sho, passing the buck.

"Well........"

"There's not a lot to tell really, Sho shouted to look out, as I spun around I was faced with an energy ball heading straight at me. It was as if it was in slow motion as I watched it get closer, I threw my arms up and braced for impact, then all of a sudden it just exploded in front of me, like a snowball being thrown at a window. Then we saw an arc of light flash in front of the Vamore type and then it dropped to the floor, sliced in half at the waist" said Agito, describing the event from his point of view.

"So you didn't see from where this Dave character attacked?" probed Murakami.

"No" said Sho and Agito in unison.

"Interesting, I wish he had stayed to hand over the pizzas face-to-face, we need all the allies we can muster if we are to crush Chronos" remarked Murakami, clenching his fist in a crushing motion.

"Well, I think we ought to continue this tomorrow, it's nearly 2am and I did originally go to bed about three hours ago" stated Sho before standing up and walking up to bed, "Goodnight, I'll see you in the morning".

The rest soon followed, Agito went up last, turning the lights off and checking all the locks on the windows and doors and arming the alarm system.

As Mizuki pulled the curtains closed she looked out into the forest that surrounded the house, she saw a light in the distance, but then it was gone. She was sure it wasn't a light from the nearest neighbor as they lived over 3 miles away, and there was a slight mist that night. She turned around to see the reflection from the hallway light disappearing from her wardrobe mirror, and heard Agito say goodnight as he retired to his room. Well that explained the light she saw!

She drew the curtains and then climbed into bed, she would sleep a lot better knowing that both Sho and Agito were fine from their earlier battle, and that somewhere someone also wanted Chronos destroyed.

End of Chapter 2
