Quickly before Zero can react he gets pounced by two undead creatures. He fights the creatures, and proceeds to try and knock them off him. After a short time has passed he finally manages to push them off. He then continues to stab each creature with his Z-Saber. After the creatures stops moving he turns to Dark Athas. "Summoning people to fight for you? You remind me of an old enemy of mine." He said as a ghastly W forms inside the crystal on his helmet. A look of pure rage comes over his face as it happens. "S-Sigma..." He mutters as he grips his saber tightly. An odd energy starts emanating from Zero in the form a purple like mist. Zero quickly drops his Z-Saber and grabs his head and begins screaming as though he is in intense pain. His screaming quickly turning into insane laughter. He quickly grabs his Z-Saber from the ground and dashes at Dark Athas with the intent to kill.

(Zero's original programming kicked in temporarily. While his original programing is in effect he gives off an odd energy which does not make him stronger. This energy can be detected by the devices being used to scan Zero. It will cause his systems to appear jumbled, and distorted when scanned. This energy is actually the Zero Virus (which is a strain of the Maverick Virus which effects A.I.'s causing them to go rogue, and/or insane.) When his original programming (A.K.A. The programming that was put there by his creator the evil Dr. Wily) he will be a bit insane, and his intent to kill will be increased.)

X looks at Yuuka then his hands. "Friend..." He says to himself before turning back to Yuuka. "I know what it's like to lose a friend. If your friend is in trouble then I will do anything in my power to help you. I won't let anyone lose someone they care about. I will come with you Yuuka." Said X in a unusually serious tone for him.

"Can't wait. I'm starving." Pontius said with mild glee.

"You just ate an hour before we even got here." Mima said, her arms crossed.

"Knights should eat every hour. It's a privilege." Pontius retorted.

"Just like getting a girlfriend, but I don't think you're entitled to that privilege, gordo!" Salvador said back.

"And you aren't entitled to being bigger than a little goblin." Pontius snapped back.

Sometimes when you're driving down a road, a bug hits your windshield. It's ugly and unpleasant, but you just activate the wipers / cleaning fluid and it's gone in a few seconds. It's just part of driving down the road. You don't dwell on it, because that'd be silly. Bugs aren't worth the time.

You just discard their guts and keep on driving.

"Frostmourne hungers." Arthas the Lich King murmured as his blade, encased in dark ice, glistened maliciously. He parried the blow from Zero's Saber, and quickly pushed Zero aside to give some space between. Then, Arthas began reciting an enchantment, summoning Crypt Fiend.


Hakurei Shrine, Gensokyo


"I'll see what I can find." Suika spoke, turning to the shrine. "But you will have to pay donations to Reimu."


"I will come with you Yuuka."
"This is personal, and you are not ready yet." Yuuka snapped. "You just said you needed to grab supplies. Stop being hypocritical of yourself."

As Zeros attack got parried and got knocked back by Dark Athas he begins laughing again. His laughter gets interrupted by the sound of him screaming. Again Zero grabs his head as though he is in pain. This time however he falls to his knees. Small surges of electricity can be seen coming from Zero's helmet. Though he quickly stands back up ready to attack again. "I'm going to rip you apart!" He yelled as he rushes at Dark Athas again, Z-Saber in hand.

"I may have said that, but this is a more urgent matter at hand. Allow me to help in some way. I don't want anything else bad to happen." X said as he takes a few steps towards Yuuka. "I lost a friend several times over. Sometimes I thought I would never get him back. I don't want to stand here doing nothing while someone you care about is in danger." Said X as he looks at Yuuka.

John turned towards X.

"We're not helping Yuuka's friend by going in unprepared. Rushing in will only get us killed.

X turns to John.

"Yes I am aware that some of us are not ready for another battle, but what I need is optional. My Falcon Armor is an upgrade that I do not need. I am fully capable of fighting without it. I can go help Yuuka if she will let me, I can get you into the Military Base at Okinawa though John." X replied as he begins thinking. "Although I do not have the right to make give anyone orders. I... I just don't want anyone to lose a friend. You know how I feel John. I read the data you sent me, I wish I could have done something." He said as he takes a few steps away from the group.

Sudden bloodlust of his opponent made Arthas twitch. Excellent. This is exactly what he needed. More corpses for this opponent to make.
"Go, Crypt Fiend." Arthas ordered the spider-like demon to attack.

Zero stops and looks at the spider demon. He takes his Z-Saber and performs a straight forward stab at the creatures head. In hopes that it will stop this beast. "THIS WON'T STOP ME!!!" He yelled in an insane fit of rage as he looks at Dark Athas. He then turns back to the spider demon, and proceeds to hack away at it.

John had an idea.
He turned to Yuuka and said, "Yuuka, would Yukari be willing to drop me off at the army base? It'll be up to her whether or not she gaps me back out. If I don't come back, continue with the plan from earlier and you should be fine."

Training Facility, Secret Base 5 Miles off of the East Coast of Japan


God the training must be worse than hell, even for someone as well conditioned as I. I guess that's just my muscles waking up from my god forsaken coma. Otori came in.

"Good. The cardiovascular warm-ups were successful, as were the abdominal and ballistic exercises. We will take a ten minute break and head on to the actual combative training."

"Finally! Something I can handle."

"Yes, but I must tell you this much: you may not use your spell cards or bullets! Using such techniques will be forbidden! Because you are in this dimention, your spells will leave a disasterous effect on the publics' properties, and that is the last thing we want."

Bummer. But there are FAR more humans here than back in gensokyo, and their lives are fragile. At least they care.

"Alrighty then," I said, "let's get this over with."
