Captain Falcon: The Last Mimeosome Chapter 3
Chapter 3: To Republic City!
(Diaslaimer! I own nothing of Nintendo, Xenoblade X, or Korra)
The sun started to go down as Cross and I finished my errands. “Still no luck finding anybody who knows anything about me,” said Cross. “That’s ok, maybe it’ll come back on its own,” I said, “Remember anything yet?” “No,” said Cross. I had a feeling that something was wrong. “Cross get down!” I said. I pushed him down and a gunshot was fired. We both got up. “Are you alright?” I asked. “Yeah I’m fine,” said Cross. I saw somebody in the shadows. He jumped away but I managed to get a snapshot of him. Cross’ arm was missing. “Oh my god,” I said, “Ok, I can get you to Luna and…..” I turned back around and saw Cross’ arm regenerate. “What the…..” I said surprised. Even Cross was surprised at this. “Let’s head back to Blade HQ,” I said. We made it to the barracks where Colleen and Elma were resting. “”Whoa, what’s the rush?” asked Colleen. “Where’s the secretary?” I asked.
Cross was being diagnosed. “Intriging,” said Alexa. “What is it?” I asked. “Well, it turns out that Cross isn’t actually a human,” said Luna, “He happens to be a mimeosome.” “Mimeosome?” I asked. “They’re programmed to mimic human emotion as closely as possible,” said Alexa. “He can also take battle chips and such,” said Luna, “Secretary Nagi provided us with this one.” She pressed Cross’ access point and I saw a blue chip. “Its programmed with dozens of B.L.A.D.E procedures.” “Now I know all about B.L.A.D.E and what it stands for.” We were in the Blade Office explaining everything to Secretary Nagi. “According to this picture, it looks like he’s working for C.H.A.O.S,” I said. “Its much more than that,” he said. “What do you mean?” asked Colleen. “He means it’s the work of a double agent,” said Commander Vandham. “You mean you’ve got a spy?” I asked.
“Yes,” said Nagi, “He goes under the codename, ‘Yellow Devil’.” I thought for a moment. “Something wrong?” asked Cross. “That name… it sounds really familiar,” I said. Colleen was pin pointing the location. “Thanks to the picture, we can see exactly where he’s hiding,” said Colleen, “I got it!” It was Republic City. “Then it looks like that’s where we’re heading,” I said. “Um…” said Cross. “Something up?” asked Elma. “If you’ll allow it Ms. Elma, I’d like to accompany your squad,” said Cross. “Hold on there,” said Vandham, “I understand you’re eager, but you don’t have any armor.” “Well he does know a little about combat,” I said, “While doing some errands we visited the training grounds, but as for the armor, just leave that to me and Alexa.”
Nagi nodded. “I think he should go,” said Nagi. “You won’t regret this sir,” said Cross. “He’ll start on your team Elma,” said Vandham. “Will do commander,” said Elma. “I’ll try not to get in the way Ms. Elma,” said Cross. Elma chuckled. “There’s no need to be formal with me Cross, I may be your leader but I’m also your friend,” she said, “Besides its weird to hear you call me that.” “Right,” said Cross. We were heading to a chopper. “Doug,” said Colleen greeting someone. Doug Barret, the colonel of Harriers greeted her. “Its been a long time since you’ve been around,” he said. He looked at me. “My name is Nicholas Shay, and this is Cross,” I said. “Yeah, and?” he asked. “Well, it looks like Nagi has given us permission to accompany you on the mission.” He scoffed and turned around. “The Yellow Devil is mine alone,” said Doug. “Wait, what’s that supposed to mean?” I asked. “I don’t need help from any S.M.A.S.H soldiers to take him out,” he said getting in the chopper. “Hey Flat top!” I said getting angry, “This is NOT a request!” He turned around. “You want him taken down right?” he asked, “So what’s the problem?”
“Nicholas don’t let him get to you,” said Colleen, “He’s been through more than you know.” We both went inside. “So what’s this idea you have?” asked Alexa. I handed her a piece of paper. “That’s ingenious,” said Alexa, “This just might work.” “What are you guys talking about?” asked Cross. “You’ll see later on,” I said. The secret agent was speaking with someone in the shadows. “Agent Zero,” he said, “I trust you sent the invitation?” “Yes,” said Agent Zero, “They’re heading to Republic City now.” “Good,” said the shadow man, “While they’re busy there, I can finally find that secret battleship, and demolish B.L.A.D.E.” “I shall deal with the soldier,” said Agent Zero. “Good,” said the shadow man, “When the time comes, I will reveal myself to the ones that got away…..”
We landed in City Hall. The mayor greeted us all. “I’ve been expecting you all,” he said, “I hope you enjoy your stay here.” “Thanks Mayor,” I said. Someone saw me. It was Korra. She gave me a grin. “You changed your hair,” I said. “Same robitic arm,” said Korra. “No, new robotic arm,” I said, “I can tell its been a while.” “2 years,” said Korra. “Ok, let’s skip the greeting and get to work,” said Doug. “What’s his deal?” I asked. “You remember Connor don’t you?” asked Colleen. “Of course,” I said, “He was like a brother to me.” I started to remember all the good memories I had hanging around him and Colleen. “When Doug and he went on a mission to fight off those C.H.A.O.S soldiers, he was killed by ‘him’,” said Colleen. “The Yellow Devil,” said Elma, “He killed his best friend Bexley Wilson, and Colleen’s cousin, Connor Kelly.” “I had no idea,” I said, “But that still doesn’t give him an excuse to act like this.” “I said move your feet, not your mouths,” said Doug. We were at a hotel. “This looks like a cool place to kick it,” said Link as he sat on a bench.
“So why are we here?” asked Cross. “To get more intel on the Yellow Devil and that double agent,” said Elma, “The more we know, the better shot we have at fighting him. “That makes good sense,” said Cross. I looked outside and saw somebody’s car stuck in a yellow goop. I went outside to see if somebody was stuck inside. “Good thing nobody’s in there,” I said. I summoned my blade and cut the substance off the car. Somebody saw me and thanked me. “Who did this?” I asked. “The Yellow Devil,” said the pedestrian, “He’s been plaguing Republic City ever since his arrival, him and his servant.” I looked around to see that others have suffered what he did. “Someone’s gotta help them,” I said. “No, no, no,” said Doug, “We can’t waste our time here.” He started to go back inside. “We have a mission that requires our absolute focus,” he said, “These people are on their own!” I finally got fed up with his attitude. “These people have been attacked by an unknown suspect but you turn your back on them?!” Irina asked stopping him, “How can you be so cold and heartless?”
“I’m not turning my back Irina,” said Doug, “I’m just being real.” “Real about what?” I asked. “I’m saying we can’t go around saving every city we come across,” said Doug, “Besides we’ll be doing this city a big favor by taking down the Yellow Devil.” Link covered his mouth. “You shouldn’t blabber about this especially if that double agent could be anywhere,” he said. Doug turned to me. “You know the mission comes first Nicholas,” said Doug. He went back inside. I went to the chopper. “If this is the only way I can convince him, then so be it,” I said. I sabotaged the chopper’s tech. Boze saw me. “Uh…. I can explain,” I said. “You’ve got determination, and the heart of a great warrior Nicholas,” said Boze, “You just need a little push.” He damaged another part. I smiled. I then called Alexa on my cell. “Alexa, get Cross and meet me at Future Industries labs tonight.” “Got it,” she said.
Later that evening, we were at the lab center at Future Industries. “Glad you two could make it,” I said. “So what’s this about?” asked Cross. “So you remember when we had you analyzed and it turns out you were a mimeosome?” I asked. “Yeah?” asked Cross. “Well check this out,” I said. I showed him the testing room. “Amazing right?” asked Asami, “Nicholas had this idea to turn you into the best soldier in the field.” “So are we making weapons and such?” asked Alexa. “You bet,” I said, “But unfortunately its not skell weaponry.” “Aww,” said Alexa. “Basically if you’re gonna take on the Yellow Devil, you’ll need some upgrades,” I said. I grabbed a scanner. “Arms up,” I said as I scanned him. “So doing what you’re planning is gonna make me a good soldier?” asked Cross, “You bet,” I said. I looked for a martial arts video and dragged it to another screen. I then grabbed a chip.
Whatever it Takes from Evolve
Falling too fast to prepare for this
Tripping in the world could be dangerous
Everybody circling is vulturous
Negative, nepotist
Everybody waiting for the fall of man
Everybody praying for the end of times
Everybody hoping they could be the one
I was born to run, I was born for this
Whip, whip
Run me like a racehorse
Pull me like a ripcord
Break me down and build me up
I wanna be the slip, slip
Word upon your lip, lip
Letter that you rip, rip
Break me down and build me up
I then took Cross’ skeleton and placed the video next to it. All the footage from the video was being transferred into the chip. “Now let’s get you some armor,” I said.
Whatever it takes
Cause I love the adrenaline in my veins
I do whatever it takes
Cause I love how it feels when I break the chains
Whatever it takes
Yeah take me to the top I'm ready for
Whatever it takes
Cause I love the adrenaline in my veins
I do what it takes
I looked around for ideas for Cross’ costume. Just then it hit me. “Every devil needs an angel,” I said. I started putting armor parts together to make Cross’ costume.
Always had a fear of being typical
Looking at my body feeling miserable
Always hanging on to the visual
I wanna be invisible
Looking at my years like a martyrdom
Everybody needs to be a part of them
Never be enough, I'm the prodigal son
I was born to run, I was born for this
Whip, whip
Run me like a racehorse
Pull me like a ripcord
Break me down and build me up
I wanna be the slip, slip
Word upon your lip, lip
Letter that you rip, rip
Break me down and build me up
Whatever it takes
Cause I love the adrenaline in my veins
I do whatever it takes
Cause I love how it feels when I break the chains
Whatever it takes
Yeah take me to the top, I'm ready for
Whatever it takes
Cause I love the adrenaline in my veins
I do what it takes
I started spraying an angel on the chest plate. Asami and I worked together to place each part on Cross. “I have one concern,” said Cross, “It seems like this armor is starting to cover my body.” “That’s kinda the idea man,” I said, “How does it feel?” “It feels…. Cool,” said Cross. “Every soldier needs a good weapon,” I said, “Which is why I modified your longsword to match the color scheme of your armor.” I gave it to him. “Data transfrer complete,” said the computer. I took out the chip and pressed a switch. There were more installment spaces and I decided to place it next to Cross’ blue chip.
Hypocritical, egotistical
Don't wanna be the parenthetical, hypothetical
Working hard on something that I'm proud of, out of the box
An epoxy to the world and the vision we've lost
I'm an apostrophe
I'm just a symbol to remind you that there's more to see
I'm just a product of the system of catastrophe
And yet a masterpiece, and yet I'm half-diseased
And when I am deceased
At least I'll go down to the grave and die happily
And leave the body and my soul to be a part of thee
I do what it takes
Cross started to analyze and know everything installed on the chip. “So how does knowing martial arts and blade arts help me become a better soldier?” asked Cross. “Well, you gotta know how to fight if you wanna help people right?” asked Alexa, “Chop this with your sword.” He chopped it with ease. “Whoa!” I said, “Awesome.” I was training him and showing him the moves. “Assault hammer!” I said, “Rising Blade! Furious blast! NUTTY BARS!” He got a pack of nutty bars from a snack machine. “Yes,” I said. Soon afterwards he was ready.
Whatever it takes
Cause I love the adrenaline in my veins
I do whatever it takes
Cause I love how it feels when I break the chains
Whatever it takes
Yeah take me to the top, I'm ready for
Whatever it takes
Cause I love the adrenaline in my veins
I do what it takes
