Colossus By Design: Entry 0074 - The Inspiring One

[December 9, 2145]
[Roth-Ma Island, off the coast of the Japanese origin island]

[Large G.U.D. fleet standing by just off the coast of the island]
[Small hovercraft rush out from the fleet carrying military and research personnel]
[Serizawa's Light and Freedom of Justice walk out of the water, onto the island]


(Thomas Scott): Alright, Satoshi, the G.U.D. has sent the two best Warmongers to investigate where they believe the dubbed 'Zeta' resides. No idea why I was picked to go along with you.

(Satoshi Yamane): It's simple. You are the best of us all.

(Thomas Scott): I find that hard to believe with all that you guys know and possess.

(Satoshi Yamane): You are not confined to any one style. You know what needs to be done, how to lead.

(Thomas Scott): Think so?

(Satoshi Yamane): I know so.

(Random Person): Cool it with the character development!

(Researcher 1): Hey, where'd that guy come from?

(Researcher 2): Just ignore him. He'll make you feel guilty if you try to get him to leave.


[Research team continues moving deeper into the forest; the Warmongers act as heavy-duty security]
[Low roar heard off in the distance as the group moves deeper through the brush]


(Thomas Scott): Fleet, we heard a possible bogey. Can you confirm?

(Fleet Command): [COMMS] This is Fleet Command. Alpha has been spotted off the coast, patrolling the island but otherwise paying no mind to us.

(Thomas Scott): Understood. Do not engage unless it decides to make attack first.

(Fleet Command): [COMMS] Roger that.

(Researcher 3): Excuse me, but what was that about?

(Thomas Scott): We have a visitor. We need to move.

(Satoshi Yamane): Understood, Thomas.

(Thomas Scott): Research team, climb aboard. We'll move faster this way. Military escort, make your way back to the fleet.

(Soldiers): Yes sir!


[Military personnel form up and move back towards the beach]
[Serizawa's Light and Freedom of Justice crouch down to allow the research team to climb up onto their hands and continue forward]


(Satoshi Yamane); What are we looking for on this island?

(Researcher 2): Any signs of the Zeta taking up residence in this part of the island cluster, and-- There!


[Research team points to a set of stone ruins down on the ground]
[Warmongers set down the research team next to the ruins]


(Researcher 1): Absolutely remarkable!

(Researcher 4): Astounding!

(Researcher 5): This could be big!

(Thomas Scott): What? What's with all the "oohs" and "ahhs" now?

(Researcher 3): Sorry, sirs. But if we're looking at these carvings correctly......

(Thomas Scott): What?


[Low non-threatening shriek is heard in the distance]
[Research team and Warmongers look up]
[Fleet crew step out onto the main decks of their ships]
[The Alpha stops in his patrol and looks upwards]
[The Zeta flies overhead, clear as day]
