“Yeah, I’ll let the scientists know. That way, they’ll adjust their tests and all- stop being cruel towards something that’s still alive in her own sense. I’m not sure what I can convince them of, but I’ll do my best.”

the cyborg sends an angry impulse along the connection, the mind-world vibrating with the force of her message- hate the scientists. don’t want to go back to them.

there’s an electronic roar accompanying this thought, decoded to speak to the humans from her own languages, code and kaiju.

A gentle smile now appears on her face as she is relieved. “That’s good. I take it you two are of an understanding now.”

That went so much better than she had originally anticipated. It’s probably better not to have such fear of such things. She thought Kiryu would be…Angrier. She still has to keep that possibility in mind just in case. 

“With this in mind, will it help not only to work with her better now but also to convey that to the scientists?”

“That makes sense I- oh, Dana’s back. Kiryu and I were just... communicating about why she doesn’t respond to my commands.” 

he shrugs his shoulders, gestures at the robot, which is looking less and less monolithic and more and more animate by the passing seconds, clearly growing more accustomed to having its own true ‘life’ as it were; something Nate is glad for, even if he’s not sure how to navigate a pilot relationship with a living machine- but he’ll do his best.

“I guess she feels like we took away her agency when we turned her into a machine. Which I understand completely, now that I know she’s got a soul attached to those bones in the ‘borg. The scientists didn’t know that when they put them in the machine.”

She was hoping for a manual in here somewhere. Looking around, she needs some kind of help so that she doesn’t make some explode or something. Finally, she’s able to find it on the wall, near the medical first aid. Grabbing it, she flips through the pages looking for instructions. When she reaches the section, she reads through it carefully despite some blur in her white eyes. 

She follows the instructions well flipping the switches as instructed in the manual while hoping the hums mean progress as the grids turn on. As soon she finishes, hoping she everything down to a T, she switches back to the void, hoping that no conflict has happened between the two. She signals her arrival with a greeting electrical current.

for a moment, he’s overwhelmed at the feeling of the void filling his mind, and his mind filling the void; he’s invisible, trying to find himself and finding only the emptiness, until he calms, and then his body takes form again, standing there at the foot of the massive machine that has manifested itself in the darkness beyond existence- he gapes up at Kiryu and doesn’t find it in himself to speak, only stare.

finally, he is ready to say something again.

“Kiryu? Are you- really here?”

he shakes his head for a moment, still in shock.

“You really do have a soul.”

“Thank you, Kiryu,” She bows her head in respect. “I will keep this connection open for us to continue this so that you’ll know what to expect and to exchange information whenever we can. I’ll come back, I need to do something for now.”

Opening her eyes,  she stands up and opens the hatch to the cockpit entering it. Her heart stops when seeing all the switches and just sits down. She has no idea what to do but feels that Nate should know what’s happening now. Opening another channel, she announces to him, “Yeah. she is. In fact, why don’t you go and say hi as I try and figure out all these buttons?”

With that, she connects him to the void, with all three of them on the same ‘channel’.

[monsterraised-blog]

what help could be offered by such a thing, the soul-mind is not sure, but willingness does avow, so assent ripples like static across the void-world around, until the connection vibrates with it faintly and only then does the feeling abate.

meanwhile, Nate awaits to find out what’s going on.

“Is Kiryu responding?”

She feels an electrical ripple and turns see to the metallic form emerging. Instead of being frightened, she stands her ground and sends a ripple back to her, confirming her own presence within the void. She then tries to send another one indicating that she means no harm.

“I wanted to ask you for your help.” She says. She has no idea how to convince her. The electrical ripples help to indicate that she understands her. But the next question would be if is she would be willing to help with what she was about to ask Kiryu. Maybe she can connect Nate to the mind void to help better convince her.

[monsterraised-blog]

in the dark, there is a presence; slowly coming into form, as if confused at its own self, the shape takes on metallic colors when it becomes feasible, and then it hums faintly, a machine turning on- it’s been awoken, but for what purpose? and how odd that someone is trying to contact the soul inside...

it sends an electrical impulse of sorts, a feeling, rippling into the mind-void around it, testing; it questions, as it looms there in the emptiness, taking up space that otherwise would have been negative, would have been nothing at all- it wants to know who is looking for it, and perhaps why.

The last thing she heard was his name before she drifted deeper from the physical world to that of the emptiness of the corporeal. There, she opens her white eyes and stands up. Looking around, she wonders where Kiryu could be. 

“Hello? Is anybody here?” she asks the darkness and then states her intentions. “My name is Dana. I’m looking for the one named Kiryu. If you are here, show yourself. I’d like to talk to you.”

“C’mon, Kiryu...”

he mumbles this before hearing the operative- Dana- speak inside of his head; at first, he starts, surprised and a little unnerved by the unfamiliar sensation, but then he calms and brushes his hand across the dashboard again- thinking, wondering, moreover, what more there is to know that they don’t yet, even if it’s not his business.

“I’m Nate. I was in the military before MONARCH poached me for my dad’s legacy with the organization. After a while, they asked me to join the project with Kiryu.”

he glances at the readouts and sees the radio waves going wild; with no incoming signal, that’s a fine sign that either Dana is telepathically in tune with Kiryu, or Kiryu herself is trying to send a message out into the world of her own volition. perhaps both.

She heard him and wanted to say something back. She stops trying to find Kiryu’s frequency for a second, to find the man’s instead, and telepathically responds. “They didn’t really tell you because there’s still a lot they don’t know. But you should know my name. It’s Dana.” She’s not going into the cockpit, out of a concern and wary of such a monolith. Plus, if what the man said was true, then she’d rather ask permission first than enter in somebody’s home.

They did know one thing though, that she’s immortal. So she’s got a lot of experience. Experiences that continues to keep on building with every weird thing happening.

Switching back, she tries to find Kiryu’s frequency now, closing her eyes and searching the dark for Kiryu, or any semblance of her. A voice, anything to help start closing the gap of communication. 

[monsterraised-blog]

he catches up a few moments later, climbing up the exterior of the cyborg taking long enough that he’s significantly behind her; but when he arrives, he’s immediately active, pacing forward in the cockpit and turning on Kiryu’s systems to try and urge her into activity- hopefully, this will make it easier for the operative he’s working with to connect to her and try to alleviate these issues they’ve been having with the mechanical Titan.

“They didn’t tell me you could fly.”

he says this offhand, not expecting a response, before taking a seat in the pilot’s chair and working the controls for a moment as he thinks; clearly, this operative is something greater than human, but that doesn’t really phase him- as with the Titans emergence, he’s always been able to roll with the punches, thanks to his father’s work with MONARCH encouraging him to keep his eyes wide open all the time.

“Good to know,” She says, as both her mismatched eyes look up to her. Her wings start to form and she takes a few steps away from him, that way her wings won’t smack him in his face. As they snap wide open, her black eye turns white to match her left one. 

“I’ll meet you up there then. It might take some time convincing her, but hopefully, it goes well,” she adds before she leaps in the air, taking flight. It’s been a while since she’s flown like this. It’s good exercise and the feel of the air between her feathers is something she’s terribly missed. As she soars towards Kiryu, she’s thinking of how to convince her to help out. Maybe the guy she was just talking to could help. What was his name again? Oh well, she’ll learn it after this. 

Landing on top of the head near the cockpit she sits down with her legs crossed. She tries to clear her own head while closing her eyes as she searches for a frequency where she, Kiryu and the man could communicate on as a means of closing the gap.

[monsterraised-blog]

he looks back at Kiryu, scanning her metallic form as she towers above them in the open field; he hopes no one gets too scared, seeing the MONARCH machine out and about like this, because that would end badly for the organization, even now that they are out in the light- something like that can end in pulled funding, sent to the military instead, and the military doesn’t have the same finesse for the Titans that MONARCH does.

“Her cockpits? There’s two of them. One in her stomach, just under the main cannon, and one in her head, behind her eyes, above the mouth cannon. I think the head one is the main one, but it’s harder to reach. I’ve always used the stomach one.”

he crosses his arms, thinking on that idea; talking to Kiryu- something he’d never considered, to be sure, but, then, he’d never had the mysticism to him that would cause him to think to look for a soul in a cyborg.

“I’ll come with. If you get through to her, I’ll need to be there.”

She glances back at him and then back at the humongous robot. 

“Huh. Well if my bones were trapped within a metal frame, I think I’d have a personality of my own. If your bosses read my file, then they’d know that there’s a reason some things should stay dead.”

It’s happened time and time again. Will they ever learn? She’s already over this cycle. However, she’s here to do a job. Now she has a pretty good idea as to what she should do. 

Taking off her jacket and her eyepatch she asks, “Where would the cockpit be? I’m gonna try and talk to her.”

[monsterraised-blog]

“It’s unclear what exactly she is, outside of that she’s got a frame of Godzilla bones from a dead Titan. She definitely doesn’t cooperate like any old machine, or cyborg, for that matter, though. She’s something more than that.”

he brushes a hand across his face in thought, shaking his head and sighing; Kiryu has always been an enigma to him, a threat that he knew he needed to be prepared for from the first test run when she ran wild- something that he doesn’t need to tell the operative he’s working with unless it becomes pertinent.

“If I were the type, I’d say she’s almost got her own personality... like there’s something left over in those bones.”

“MONARCH and your employers want us to hunt down some Titan that’s been terrorizing towns in the countryside, not to mention causing sinkholes on the moors. They think it’s a rogue species from Skull Island- a Skullcrawler.”

he runs a hand over his hair and examines the horizon for a moment before gesturing behind himself; a monolith of a robot looms there (or perhaps cyborg is more accurate, considering the Godzilla bones inside), shining silver in the midday sun.

“Problem is, Kiryu’s not cooperating. Her controls keep locking up, locking me out. I’m gonna end up blowing the mission if it goes on like this much longer.”
