  1. [February 27, 2146]
  2. [Undisclosed Warehouse Location]
  3.  
  4. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  5.  
  6. In a dark and relatively empty warehouse, several cloaked figures gather around a large collection of candles. In particular is Denouncer Daiyu Chen, who stands between all of them and heads their chanting.
  7.  
  8. A door opens up; another cloaked figure quickly runs into the room and kneels in front of the circle of other cloaked figures. They all turn their attention towards him and move out of the way for Denouncer Chen to walk up to the messenger.
  9.  
  10.  
  11. (Daiyu Chen): You have news?
  12.  
  13. (Messenger): Indeed.
  14.  
  15. (Daiyu Chen): Show me.
  16.  
  17.  
  18. The messenger takes out a datapad out of his cloak, swipes at it a few times, and turns it around to show Denouncer Chen an image; a large and unsettling smile overtakes her face.
  19.  
  20.  
  21. (Daiyu Chen): Excellent.....
  22.  
  23.  
  24. One of the cloaked figures from the group speaks up.
  25.  
  26.  
  27. (Cultist): Excuse me, ma'am?
  28.  
  29. (Daiyu Chen): Hmm?
  30.  
  31. (Cultist): Why have you only come back to us now?
  32.  
  33. (Daiyu Chen): The answer is simple, child. The Children of Monster no longer have to fear persecution, for our lords have finally spoken out.
  34.  
  35.  
  36. A cult member speaks up, shuffling forward nervously.
  37.  
  38.  
  39. (Another Cultist): But why haven't you tried sabotaging our enemies from within?
  40.  
  41. (Daiyu Chen): Let's just say that I had lost hope for a while, and simply accepted my facade as a part of the G.U.D., especially after the failure of my attack on Japan, the Warmongers' continued success against our lords, and the arrival of Godzilla. But when He spoke to us all, I broke from my shell and regained my sense of purpose.
  42.  
  43.  
  44. Another cloaked cult member points to the image on the datapad; it shows a large organic-looking rock in a cave that's lined with intricate Atlantean writing and designs.
  45.  
  46.  
  47. (A Third Cultist): And that?
  48.  
  49. (Daiyu Chen): That, my children, is our fallback plan. He is a god in hibernation, and we have found him. For a short period, I had worried that his first form's death at the hands of the Warmongers was the end once I regained my purpose. But not so.
  50.  
  51.  
  52. The cult messenger stands up and pulls out another object from his cloak; this one is small enough to fit in his hand.
  53.  
  54.  
  55. (Messenger): I have it, ma'am.
  56.  
  57. (Daiyu Chen): Give it to me.
  58.  
  59.  
  60. The cult messenger opens his palm; a small amulet, with a bulbous oval-shaped core and a hook-like offshoot, presents itself. Denouncer Chen immediately grabs hold of it and looks at it with a look of awe and fascination.
  61.  
  62.  
  63. (Messenger): That is the sacred amulet that will connect you to the god, leader?
  64.  
  65. (Daiyu Chen): Yes...... soon, him and I shall join the king of our lords, and we will aid in his plans. For the time being, begin recruiting more members, spread the word of our new revolutionary return, my followers!
  66.  
  67. (Cultists): INDEED!
  68.  
  69.  
  70. At her command, the group of Children of Monsters cultists file out of the warehouse in an orderly fashion, and soon enough, only Denouncer Chen is left. She looks at her newly obtained amulet with great joy and satisfaction, then back at the datapad with the image of the organic-looking stone.
  71.  
  72.  
  73. (Daiyu Chen): I have put off my return as the leader of the Children of Monsters for far too long, and almost fooled myself into accepting my false identity as a leader of Humanity. But now all is clear. It is time for us to retake this world. I had better begin preparations to enact that plan. Soon, everything will be under control. Indeed, under control.
  74.  
  75.  
  76. After thinking to herself for a little while, Denouncer Chen leaves the warehouse as well.
  77.

  83. [Undisclosed Warehouse Location]
  84.  
  85. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  86.  
  87. A group of Children of Monsters cultists are gathered in a large circle and chanting in a sort of low mumble; an old man shouts to the ceiling, with one hand resting on a young woman's shoulder in the middle of the group. The young woman, looking no older than nineteen, is nonetheless the most decorated cultist there, aside from the old man himself.
  88.  
  89.  
  90. (Leader): DAIYU CHEN, DO YOU ACCEPT THIS HONOR OF BECOMING THE NEW LEADER OF OUR PEOPLE, EVEN IN THESE TIMES OF GREAT CRISIS AND PERSECUTION, WHERE OUR LORDS HAVE BEEN TEMPORARILY DEFEATED?!
  91.  
  92. (Daiyu Chen): I DO!
  93.  
  94. (Leader): WHAT SAY THE REST OF YOU?! IS SHE READY?!
  95.  
  96. (Cultists): INDEED! SHE WILL HAVE EVERYTHING UNDER CONTROL!
  97.  
  98. (Leader): Miss Chen, it is a great honor to welcome you as our leader. We will heed your every word.
  99.  
  100. (Daiyu Chen): It's my pleasure. I hope to one day enter an upper position in the newly formed Global Union of Divisions, to keep tabs on any goings-ons. I will keep up my facade, until the day of reckoning is upon us, even if I must wait another 100 years! Even if they brainwash me, my true self will remain within, always!
  101.  
  102. (Leader): Child..... take heed, and do not allow their heresy to blind you. Times will be tough, to be sure.
