Room 4: Mission 7

[Defectron]

Several lasers shot out of the ball, Shirow was holding both his hands in front of him defensively. "Shit....that was too close...." he said relieved to be in the room, Indra had almost nailed him that time.

Tjad and Gmr both materialized next.

"You!" Shirow walked over to Gmr and decked him with an electromagnetically enhanced punch. He was about to blast him but then lowered his hand. He might need him as a distraction during the mission. But if he survived, there was no way he would let him leave the room alive.

Just then several more lasers shot out, the first was a person who seemed to be clad in some strange organically formed armor, it's texture almost seemed to be scaly like a reptiles skin but shined like polished silver. It had several rows of what appeared to be dorsal fins on it's back and a tale ending in a curved spike sort of like a stinger. The persons face wasn't visible , it was covered by a helmet that had two red orbs that seemed to function as eyes. "What the hell?" he looked at his hands, it was Dan. The front of the helmet flipped up and Dans face was visible behind it.

(Dans weapon looks sort of like a more badass version of Chandi's armor from Betterman, if you havent seen Betterman I'll try to find a picture of Chandi later)

Several more lasers shot out , behind Dan a very flashy looking man in a pink fur coat appeared. He looked around the room looking startled and then spotted Tjad and Gmr and recognized their suits "YOU! Your those Philistine Premadonas who tried to kill me and blew up my factory! So your back to finish the job eh?....but why am I in this room, I was outside. Why does this place look so familiar?" Dr Gaylord said looking around curiously.

Before anything else could happen more lasers began to shoot out.

[Shad²]

Tjad was looking at Shirow and GmR when Dan was transported.

''Wat the fuck?''

Not trusting what he saw he immediately took out a X-Rifle and aimed at his head. A few moments later Dan's head popped out from under the mask.

''What? That's your weapon? No way.''

Tjad looks at Gantz with a pretty jealous face. BUt he was interrupted by the new guy recognizing.

''What? Why would I wanna kill you?''

[®onnie ®ude]

All GmR heard was Shirow shout out at him and his face was met with a shocking fist. At the moment of impact GmR's body grumbled and fell to the ground. "Damn, he's strong..."GmR thought to himself as he aligned his jaw.

With a few winces he spoke,"Oh, ya hit me, eh? You can't beat Oniko, but you blind side a blind guy. Do you feel better about yourself? What are you gonna do Shirow, kill me after the mission?"

GmR laughed now knowing he probly got under Shirows skin. Slowly he wiped the blood off his lips and gazed blindly back at him with a cheery expression,"You can kill me but, in the end that guy looking for you is just going to kill you in the end. I can't wait till you get what's coming to you." Then slowly GmR stood and grasped his katana staff and pulled them apart. Now with each Katana in his hand he strolled into the hallway. As he was going he called out,"My back is turned so fire when your ready, ya know?"

[♠DJ-JISHAKU♠]

Afew moments of lazers and ~bzzzzzzzzt~ and there stands john with a crazed look in his eyes. Hes naked all exept for the hospital gown holding a bloody and bent bed pan. It drops to the floor making a loud ~ping~tang~tong~clang~ the crazed look clears and he says "What....the.....fuck? how long...." he looks at his arm and laughs. "So thats how it works. And I'm the weakest link...."
He walks to the front door and rumages through his things and finds a Gantz katana and a pistol. He pushes through that to find his satchel. "huh feels heavy" he opens the flap and sticks his hand in , the moment it makes contact with the contents his eyes light up "6-2=4 4-2=2 2-1=....." he picks up the satchel and slings it and puts the X-pistol in it and digs out his Yakuza .45s and an extra mag between them. He pulls out a pair of relativly tight clothing. "Oh MY HAT!"
And he comes walking back out with the full satchel,a pair of clothing and his hat on.

[♠DJ-JISHAKU♠]

He passes GmR and puts a .45 aginst his chest as if offering it to a blind guy. "You alright kid sorry I shot at you with a bazooka and I know your blind but a point blank shot from that is a hard hit. " And gives him the pistol and walks into the main room.

[Defectron]

Dr. Gaylord took a closer look at Tjad, he wasn't one of the people that had been chasing him but he was dressed like them. "Those Philistine Primadonnas were dressed like you. Those cretins hounded me all across Europe and Asia, they nearly killed me three times. You really aren't with them are you?" Dr. Gaylord said suspiciously, he held a cane defensively, it looked like a really tacky cane a pimp might carry. In fact Gaylords entire appearance looked like that of a pimp but more colorful with a flamboyant pink fur coat , around his neck was a gold chain with gold letters encrusted with diamonds "GAYLORD".

Suddenly several more lasers shot out Harry, Spike and Barbie all appeared.

Ignoring the bear Gaylord took a closer look at Tjads X-rifle "You also have the same weapons, yes, a few months ago I constructed a prototype of this gun, normal materials weren't durable enough to stand up to the high energy output and the gun would fry after the first few shots. Fortunatly with technology given to me by my Clunka Wunkas I was able to make a new sort of material resistant enough to make a working prototype. I was going to mass produce it and use it to break apart large blocks of rock candy, because you know it is so very difficult to get realistic looking rock candy. It never looks like real rocks, which is how it should work you know! But then those...those philistines, I don't know how they got my invention but they did! They blew up my factory...killed all my Clunka Wunkas....they were just jealous...jealous of my genious good looks and sex appeal!" Gaylord shouted wiping tears from his eyes. Tjad backed away from him kind of slowly.

Harry had been listening to this conversation intently, he'd heard of Dr. Gaylord, he was a mysterious candy maker that lived in Russia. Before his mysterious dissapearance he was a multibillionair from all the ingenious new types of candy he had made. Millenion for all its dealings never dabbled in that market so he didn't know that much about him, but he had heard rumors that alot of strange things went on in his factory. Awhile ago he had handed out a number of golden tickets to several kids to determine his successor, all the kids came back with horror stories of unimaginable things like tiny colorful midgets that sang and super technology that couldnt possibly exist. The little boy who won ended up filing a lawsuit against Gaylord claiming he tried to molest him, the charges were never proved and Gaylord got off scott free. If what Gaylord said was true, he could use a man like that, he'd have to make sure he stayed alive this mission. Harry then glanced at Shirow, he was alive. He 'd been monitoring the fight and was dissapointed to see that Shirow had got out of it intact. No matter, he didn't know of his connection with Shiva, he'd have another chance.

Gaylord then noticed John getting dressed, he stared at his butt for a moment and then smiled. John seemed to pick up on Gaylord checking out his body and quickly moved into the hallway to finish dressing.

Dan had been too absorbed in checking out his new weapon to pay attention to Gaylord. His tail swished back & forth as if it were actually part of his body. "This thing must be directly linked to my nervous system"

Suddenly several more lasers shot out an attractive but somewhat worn looking girl with brown hair appeared, she was crouched like she was trying to avoid an explosion. Barbie immediatly had a look of recognition come across her face. It was her old freind Skipper!

"Skipper! I finnally found you!" she got up and hugged her suprised freind, but then her face fell "Oh, no you got sent here too! I'm so sorry!"

"W-what? Barbie? Why are you dressed like that?"

"It's a long story, it's hard to believe but I'll explain it to you."

After some explaining

"So Ken died..." Skipper looked a little sad. She had loved Ken, but even after he and Barbie broke up he only had eyes for Barbie. Her freind always seemed to live under the sun while she was fated to have all the good things in life pass her by.

[®onnie ®ude]

Miles "GmR" Inwich ignored the commotion going on in the main room. He was too far facinated with the fact he was holding an object of the similar type that had killed him. He was holding a gun. The very same one John had given him mere moments ago.

His hands felt along it before he found the pistols barrel. Then slowly e emptied it and dropped placed the bullets in his pocket. He knew just having the gun gave him power enough. However, GmR had no will to use it.

As he finished he placed the pistol in the waiste band above his back side. just when he finished he heard footsteps aproaching. It had been Johns but, this was completely oblivious to GmR.

He thought it was probly Tjad waiting for him to cry again. he had been right in his message that there was no reason to cry. Crying fixes nothing. He knew he had to survive this time so he could talk more with Oniko and he wouldn't be any better at surviving with a weak mind.

A small smile formed on his face as he pulled out a set of two dice. 1 blacke with red dots and the other red with black dots. Swiftly he shook them in his hands as he awaited the all too familar music to play.

[Shad²]

''What? What the hell are you talking about?''

People wearing the same suits as us? Are there more Gantzes?

jealous of my genious good looks and sex appeal!" Gaylord shouted wiping tears from his eyes. Tjad backed away from him kind of slowly.

Tjad backed away a little.

''Stay away faggot.''

Tjad puts up the X-Rifle higher to keep him away from him. His attention was now more on this gaylord except on Dan's new weapon.

[♠DJ-JISHAKU♠]

" WOAW another room? Where in this building? .................................Nanobots. Like the "Bacta" shot from StarWars? Isnt that electrical based? I saw this thing on the Science channel about microscopic machines."

[Kaosu]

Kaosu teleported in, sporting the usual dark colors and gantz suit underneath. He still had his usual weapons with him, his deagle, AWP, and X-Rifle. After seeing that all the usual was going on, he went to the quite side room, where he watched the ball to give the next assignment.

[Uchiha Itachi]

Itachi materialized in the room and he saw a weird looking thing(dan), Tjad, GmR ,John and a couple other people.
"Not this again!".
Itachi walked to the corner and sat down.

[Defectron]

"Some of them, before my factory was destroyed I developed two primary types of nanomachines, ones that work on the molecular level to create new materials and others that work on the cellular level to repair damage, my cellular nanomachines were organically based, unfortunatly they were still in the testing stages before I had the chance to use them. Yes it was a well guarded secret, but it doesnt mean anything now that it's all gone, Gaylord chocolates were even perfect on the molecular level, normal factories couldnt compete."

Harry listened intently, this man Gaylord could be very valuable to him, maybe he could help him unravel the secrets of Shivas nanites.

Next Labig and some weird guy in a badly made goofy monster suit appeared. Labig appeared to be taking a shower "I'm walking on sunshine Ohhhh yeaaaaahh....uhoh!" Labig realized where he was and covered himself up running away. Dr Gaylord looked like a kid about to open his birthday presents as a large creepy grin spread over his face as he watched Labig leave for the hallway. There were so many sexy people here, but before he could have any fun he needed to figure out what this was all about.

The man in the monster costume took off his mask "What the? Where am I?" Old Man McKowski was used to ending up in unfamiliar places, but this was a bit much. A moment ago he'd been chaisng those meddling kids and that stupid dog and now he was here. Then he spotted Dan, a kindred spirit perhaps? And with a really good looking costume at that!

"Hey there young fella? What's this all about?" he said walking over to Dan.

"Were here to hunt aliens." he answered matter of factly.

"There aint no such things as aliens, just guys in suits who are trying to scare away meddling kids. My names old man McKowski, but you might know me as the Ghost of Space Bigfoot, those darn kids were trying to uncover my counterfitting operation so i had to scare them off!"

That had to be one of the dumbest things Dan had ever heard, just for that he was going to mess with this guy.

"Hehehe....yeah well the truth is I'm actually a super hero, Foreign Devil, and I captured you, I contacted the cops and their going to be here any minute to sweat a confession out of your wrinkled old timer ass!"

"No! Not the cops! I'm claustrophobic, I don't wanna go to jail! Nooo!" Old man McKowski ran out into the hallway where he began to fumble with the door, even without the barrier he'd have trouble opening it with his big goofy monster gloves.

Fist , Asuka and Electra all materilized next, everyone was here now, soon it would begin. Shortly after they materialized the music began to play and a message was displayed on the ball.

"Y0U4 L1V3S 4R3 N0W 0V3r wH4t y0u d0 w1th y0ur n3w li3v3s is f0r m3 t0 d3c1d3. 4t l34st th4t's th3 the0ry 4nyw4y."

This was soon replaced by a picture

Tentacle Girl Alien:

Catch phrase: I'll punish your sexuality!

Characteristics: cute, tentacles, poison

"There aint no such things as aliens! There all just old men in costumes like me!" Old Man McKowski said angrily

"There are too aliens, I used to employ them at my factory before it blew up!" Dr. Gaylord said.

"Oh! You mean illegal aliens! Trying to take money out of the pockets of hard working Americans eh? Your the one who should be wearing the goofy costume, not me!"

"I'll have you know my factory was in Russia! And were in Japan right now!"

"Uhh...I knew that....so your fighting against communism....very admirable..."

"Uhhh...." even Dr Gaylord was having trouble understanding this crazy old man.

Both of them were suddenly interrupted "WHAT THE HELLS THIS BULLSHIT?" Dan shoved old man McKowski aside causing him to trip as he got a closer look at the picture.

"Gwaaaa...my hernia!" he said as he stumbled out of the way.

"Gantz! What the hells going on here? She never did anything! Dokukos not a bad person, so why is she our target?"

"You know her?" Shirow asked

Tjad remembered, he'd seen her with Dan right before they vanished.

"Yeah, she's a freind of mine, what's it to you?" Shirow generated a high powered Plasma punch hot enough to burn through a normal gantz suit, but Dan caught it in one hand.

"Oh? So that's how it is?" Even as the fames burned around his hand , he squeezed down. He pulled back and swung shirow across the room like a rag doll smashing him against the wall. "If any of you try to hurt Dokuko, I won't show any mercy!" he looked at his hand, it had been singed but this new armor was strong enough to hold up against the heat.

"Hey baldy, send me out first!" he said turning to gantz. Several lasers came out as Dan began to dematerialize.

[Shad²]

As the ball opens Tjad immediately heads for the rack taking a Y-Gun putting in another selfmade holster above his original one. He now had 4 X-Rifles and 2 Y-guns. As he turns back he looks at their target. Tjad recognized the alien as the girl he'd seen with Dan. So that's what the big guy ment.

''hmmm... This could be interesting.'' Tjad said with a slight smile. Not of excitement, but of anticipation.

He walks over to the door with the bikes. As he enters the room and looks back at Shirow.

''This will be the decisive round.''

As he sits on the bike Tjad starts teleporting.

They'll be there too. I can feel it.

(00C: Hmm pic aint work so I'll do a repeat of your post and post my move next)

[♠DJ-JISHAKU♠]

Within 5 mins hes dressed and collecting gear. He picks up a new controller and holsters it. He also takes an X-pistol and rumages for another holster and puts it on , now hes dual wielding. He straps his backskates on and heads into the bike room where he gets a sword and his rifle. But by the time hes in the main room he realizes the top of his head has started to teleport , and he picks up an X-rifle before he starts to see the other side.
He shoulder slings the assult weapon and pumps the X-rifle as his arms disappear.

Once on the other side like a machine he sets down the Assult weapon and the X-rifle then drops his satchle and shortens the strap for wear on the chest. He then cuts the extra length and slips it throught the loops on the bottom and secures it to his chest.
He slings the X-rifle and picks up the Assult weapon and readies it for battle.

[®onnie ®ude]

GmR had been minding his own buisness until everyone began flooding in the hallway. 'What is everyone gay or something?' Just as the thought of this passed John had slapped a piece of spandex from his suit to his body.

GmR just looked blindly in the direction of the sound in horror.He then whispered,"You people are sick..."

Just as he states this the music begins to play. This time around GmR began to hum the tune as he walked passively into the main room. Just as he arrived his ears were plagued by the current situation brewing.

"WHAT THE HELLS THIS BULLSHIT?" Dan shoved old man McKowski aside causing him to trip as he got a closer look at the picture.

GmR winced at the tone of his voice as along with Old Man McKowski who shouted,"Gwaaaa...my hernia!" A smirk was on GmR's face at this before it was wiped off by Dan's next outburst.

"Gantz! What the hells going on here? She never did anything! Dokukos not a bad person, so why is she our target?"

"A...person is our target..." He couldn't kill a human being. Why would Gantz tell them to kill an alien?

"You know her?" Shirow asked.

'He obviously does if he knows her name.'GmR thought.

"Yeah, she's a freind of mine, what's it to you?" Shirow generated a high powered Plasma punch hot enough to burn through a normal gantz suit, but Dan caught it in one hand.

"Oh? So that's how it is?" Even as the fames burned around his hand , he squeezed down. He pulled back and swung shirow across the room like a rag doll smashing him against the wall. "If any of you try to hurt Dokuko, I won't show any mercy!" he looked at his hand, it had been singed but this new armor was strong enough to hold up against the heat.

GmR heard the plasma punch readying and knew Dan was in trouble until the blow never came. Instead he heard Shirow fly across the room like a rag doll. The lad took his mind off the current situation to check and see if he was ok,"Man, he's strong...geuss your going to have to be on your best behavior while he's around." GmR held out his hand in an attempt to offer help to Shirow. He knew Shirow wouldn't take it but, GmR wasn't too much of an asshole to not offer help to anyone.

"Maybe she isn't who he thinks she is, and if she isn't she'll probly attack him. That means this is going to get ugly Shirow. She's gonna have one of our strongest guys on her side. We might have to work together on this one, everyone will! We have to make sure everyone comes back alive."

"Hey baldy, send me out first!" Dan said turning to gantz. Several lasers came out as he began to dematerialize.

GmR then whispered, "Its starting..."

[Uchiha Itachi]

Itachi stood up and tooke a good looke at everyone
"my day gets weirder by the second"
He walks over to the sphere, picks up a 2 X-rifles and a Y-gun. he holsters the Y-gun and 1 X-rifle. he also picks up a controllr, before he dematerializes he takes a good looke at the alien.
"well, here we go again."
Itachi starts to dematerialize.
((OOC: Itachi has now a M4A1 on his back and a Y-gun in the other))

[♠DJ-JISHAKU♠]

He sees Itachi teleport and subcontiously says under his breath "M4 5.56 adjustable stock spec.ops. issue" and takes the sword handle backwards in his unoccupied right hand and lays the foward grip of the rifle over the forearm.
"Its clobberin time!"

[Defectron]

Dan reapeared in the same area that the big fight was right before they got taken to the room. He was about to take out his controller, but as soon as he thought of doing that, a tiny view screen came up inside his helmet displaying a map of the area. There were two red dots, one was Dokuko, so who was the other dot? Maybe it was one of those other guys they had fought not to long ago, but if that was the case there should have been at least one more dot on the screen. Also they never showed up on the screen before so unless gantz was doing something different this was something else.

It was then that Dan noticed a tank coming around the corner of the street, no civilians were around, but he was rapidly becoming aware that this place was crawling with military forces.

"Woah, this is new, but they shouldn't be able to see..." before he could finish his sentence dozens of bullets began to rain down on him from the rooftops, the tank also turned its turret in his direction.

"What the hell?" his helmet zoomed in, the soldiers firing on him were all wearing some weird goggles. The Tank fired with a deafening boom. The shell nearly hit Dan as he dodged out of the way. It blew a great big hole in the building behind him.

"You bastards! I don't have time for this!" he said getting up. As his anger rose the dorsal fins on his back glowed white hot, everything around him was incinerated, the pavement burning and melting under his feet as this happened. Earlier he had noticed what appeared to be some sort of organically formed nozzel near each of his wrists, he guessed that was for some sort of weapon. He pointed each one at the tank , the suit seemed to be linked directly with his nervous system, if he was right all he would have to do is will it to fire. "Fire!" as he said this the dorsal fins on his back glowed even brighter and two blinding white jets of flame shot out from each nozzel, they were so hot the tank began to melt like a piece of butter that had fallen onto a hot plate. Without warning it exploded blasting apart the front side of the building Dan standing next to. The other soldiers in the area backed off cautiously taking cover. "Yeah you better hide! Listen up you weaklings, I don't have anything against you, I know you guys are just doing your job and stuff like that, but if you come after me again, I'll roast each and every one of you!" after saying that he turned and began to run in the direction of one of the dots"Shit I don't have time for this, gotta find Dokuko!" he ran faster and as he was about to leap into the air two more nozzels next to his feet spewed out two jets of flame, using them like thrusters he overshot the first few buildings heading in the direction of one of the dots.

A bit later

Dan found Dokuko , lying around her were a number of soldiers who looked beaten up but still alive.

"Dokuko!"

Even with his new look she recognized "Whooooah! Where'd you get that? It looks neato torpedo!" she said jumping up and down around him examining his new weapon.

"Oh, this? Well I was so good for cristmas santa gave it to me...BUT That's not the point! The point is that the shits hit the fan and now all the hunters are coming to kill you for some reason!"

"Hunters?"

"Yeah those guys that we helped out earlier when that freak was blowing up the place."

"But why would they want to do that?"

"Don't ask me, but I'm not going to let them, see there's only a certain area me and the other hunters can move around in. If you can get beyond that area you should be safe at least for now. I'll stay behind and try to keep them from following you."

"Why don't you come with me?"

"Because I can't move outside the area! I'll meet you again after the hunt is over, but right now, you need to run!"

"I don't want to!" Dokuko looked stubborn

"Damn it there's no time for this, they'll be here soon, you need to go now!"

"But you'll be all alone, won't that be dangerous? I can't let you fight them all alone..."

"I can do it alone, I won't lose, not to them...Now go!" Dokuko looked a little worried but left anyway leaping into the air from rooftop to rooftop.

A couple blocks away

After Gmr had teleported away Oniko had begun to head home but encountered some unexpected resistence.

Several soldiers fired on Oniko but with incredibly fast speed and reflexes she evaded all their shot dartning around their line of fire, in a blink of an eye she had closed the gap of space between them and slashed their heads off with one of her katanas. Who were these guys?

Watching from a nearby roof was a woman accompanied by a large hulking form that resembled a giant wolf "That girl, I think I'd like to devour her..." the strange wolf like creature said

"Not now Mantacore, she and all the others are a second priority. Right now, we need to concentrate on recapturing your sister."

Back in the room

Shirow looked at Gmr dubiously and got up off the floor, what the hell was this guy thinking, he was planning to kill him and he knew it but he still tried to help him up. He didn't really have time to contemplate this as he and Gmr both began to demataerialize.

Tjad and the bike both materialized about a block away from the tank Dan had incinerated. This place literally looked like a war zone complete with tanks and military helicopters. Iitachi also appeared nearby followed by John.

Back in the room Fist dematerialized as Spike finished getting dressed next to him, he wasn't sure what exactly was going on, but this time he'd get the kill!

Spike walked over to Dr. Gaylord "What you were talking about ealier sounds fascinating, I've been studying these weapons and have come up with a hypothesis about how they work. If you survive I wouldn't mind discussing my findings with you." the bear said as he vanished. Harry also noticed this, that bear had gotten pretty smart as well. If he had both Spike and Gaylord working for him, he'd no doubt be able to make things go alot more smoothly. He'd have to stick close to them and make sure they didn't die. And with that thought Harry vanished as well.

Out in the battle zone

"I can still fight!" Hanumon said , his wounds were healing alot slower then usual.

"No, Shiva wants you to return, Ganesh says he's willing to take your place as our backup." Indra said.

"But..."

"Do it, or I'll chop your arms and legs off and send you back without them!" Hanumon reluctantly turned away and dematerialized.

"It's not like Ganesh to volunteer like that." Pavarti remarked. Her brother was usually pretty quiet and didn't like coming out in the open, he thought he was ugly and it embarrassed him greatly.

"This is a personal matter for him, the people who captured him are slinking around here, I think he wants revenge on them." Several soldiers came up onto the rooftop and began to fire on the two of them. But then in a split second the firing stopped.

"Without your toys, your too weak for words, how did such stupid weak creatures ever manage to capture Ganesh?" Indra held the severed arms of the soldiers still grasping their weapons in both his hands as he dropped them tot he ground wiping his hands off.

GmR materialized in an alley way nearby the disaster that Dan had left behind. GmR could smell the blood and smoke in the air. How could anyone kill so much...cause so much destruction. GmR clutched his fists together as his arm began to swell. He then punched the wall of the side of the building making a large fist imprint in it.

"We could have sorted this out...these people...the had nothing to do with this..."GmR spoke in shock."I have to stop him before he harms anyone else...I have to find this Dokuko girl before anyone else does."He then thought back to Dan's words.

"If any of you try to hurt Dokuko, I won't show any mercy!"

"He can't possibly have good intentions...he's too far wrapped in the thought of someone harming her. Even if someone were to try and help him help her, he probly wouldn't trust them. However if I tried to confront him he'd probly kill me with no question. What am I supposed to do!?!"

GmR looked down ashamed of his fear."If I don't do something people will die..."

[♠DJ-JISHAKU♠]

The second hes battle ready helooks up and the wave of emotion hits him that of fear from the surrounding streets,hatred and hunger from above,exitement from his fellow gantzers and then the slight hint of love from somewhere else.
He fwips out the remote and hits the stealth while searching for dots once he aquires them he concentrates on a nearby rooftop and feels excitement as he hears gunshots from the opposite side as himself.
He uses the sword and vaults himself straight up and steps softly on the edge of the roof to see about 10 soldiers walking backwards and fireing at Dan there retreating as they fire so there backs are towards John.
He gently "ports" his Assult weapon so it points up and begins sweeping the rooftop with the katana in an attempt to seperate the soldiers from there lower halves and clear the roof.
He leans the Assult weapon against his leg and pulls an X-pistol and fires a full powered shot on a big Water tank on an adjacent rooftop to sweep the soldiers over the edge with the bursting flow of water.
He pops out the handgrenade and peals off one side of the "bear bond" and lays it around the explosive canister he then unscrews the bottom cap and puts it back into the satchel.
The moment his attention is diverted from the satchel its pulled to a female form and a massive wolf "Mononoke" he hides behind the roof access door and pops open the X-rifle. He slides out the "battery" canister. Then he pulls out his multitool and yanks a wire from a telephone line just inside the door then strips it with his teeth and clips it off.
He puts away the multitool and picks up the X-rifle with his left hand and holds the open rifle he wraps the clipped wire around both nodes and pops it back into the rifle. When it clips shut it powers up and charges. He cocks the X-rifle and readies a shot then fires it at one on the florecent light in the hallway inside the building and it pops , sparks and dies...........the X-rifle is now an E.M.P. gun and he turns around and says "Come get some."
He straps the Assult weapon tight to his back and slings the EMP gun loose over his head and under his left arm so that his left arm is free to move , and holds the G-katana in his right hand.
He sneaks a quick peek at the wolf and girl from behind the door then over to a radio tower about 20 feet away and formulates a plan.

[Kaosu]

Kaosu walked out of the closet and into the main room as he saw everyone transporting to the area. "So, they call you Gantz. Care to explain why we are doing all of this? What is our objective?" he asked the ball. He figured that this was connected to another room where the person in charge was watching.

[Shad²]

As Tjad looked around him he noticed the devistation that Dan probably had caused.

''He's dangerous.''

But these bodies were human bodies. Why would he attack them? But there was no time for this. He had to get to Dokukko. He took out his controller and noticed two dots.

''hmmmm... Only two?''

He sees one red dot looked like it was running to outside of the area. But there was also one normal dot who was standing still. That was probably Dan. Tjad races at top speed to the area where they were at. If he wouldn't be on time she'd get out of the area. He couldn't let that happen. As he was raving to them Tjad thought he saw two figures on a rooftop. One looking like a wolf. He shakes his head in confusion and concentrates back on his hunt.

A few moments later he races past Dan to see Dokukko. It seemed they had just finished talking a few moments ago and they weren't very far from each other. Tjad drives in front of Dokukko and stops in fron of her with he's face facing hers. Immediately he takes out an X-rifle and fires.

''Game Over...''

[Shad²]

''Ow there must've been some kind of war here.''

Itachi looks around the at the pile of bodies and destroyed machinery. He wondered who could have this kind of power. Was it the target of this mission? Or could it be that guy in the weird suit. To his left he sees GmR punching the wall. Itachi walks over to him.

''You alright kiddo?''

[Defectron]

Tjads blast seemed to hit her dead on, Dokukos head exploded.

"Oh shit no!" somehow Dan knew that she wasn't dead though, ever since theyed started spending time together, somehow the two of them were able to tell how each other felt without asking. And right now despite the fact that she didn't have a head Dan somehow knew she was still alive, probably playing dead. As Tjad turns, the dorsal fins on Dans back began to glow white hot and the pavement around his feet melted and caught on fire. He had to be careful or Dokuko might get caught in the blast. He fired to focused jets of flame aiming at Tjads head. Tjad ducked the blast rolling out of the way.

"Hmmm...if he touches me it won't be good, I'll just have to fight this battle long range." Dan thought. But Tjad had done what he wanted him to do, he must have assumed that first shot had killed her since Dokuko wasn't moving and his blast of fire had forced him away from her. He wouldnt have to hold back anymore. Dans dorsal fins once again glowed white hot and this time he shot another blast several times the size of the first one, he wouldn't let him get away this time. Tjad managed to pull the carbon from the air forming a barrier of diamond in front of the blast. The white hot fire met the diamond which was begining to crack under the heat.

Then suddenly there was a crack that sounded like thunder, a huge blinding bolt of plasma crashed into Dan, this caused his assault on Tjad to cease. Shirow stood on top of a nearby building and leapt down to the ground to check what sort of damage he did, about ten square feet around where Dan had stood the ground had been completely melted fromt he heat.

Oniko noticed the lightning in the sky and knew what must have made it heading for their location.

"Heh, not even you could take a full powered blast, that's the power worthy of god!" just as he was saying this though something shot out of the smoke. Dan was still alive, he was blackened with soot but his armor had withstood the blast. He delivered a side kick to Shirows face, while doing so a jet of fire issued out from the nozzel near his foot blasting him at point blank range and sending him flying into a nearby truck.

"Arrghhhh!" Shirow screamed covering his face, his suit had protected him from the blast, but that white fire was so bright it had completely blinded him.

Dan turned back to Tjad and smiled "Well looks like it's just us again, just how it should be!"

Tjad had been so distracted by this he hadn't noticed that where Dokuko had been a moment before, there was only a large hole melted into the ground.

Fist had watched it all from the shadows, while those idiots were fighting he would get the kill. He opened the lid of a manhole and jumped down inside it.

Not too far away

"Someone is watching us, I should kill him." The giant wolf said

"No, kill him if he makes a move, right now our first priority is recapturing your sister." Said the armored woman, as she prepped a strange sort of weapon. It was a large box strapped on her back with several lines that fed to a strange gun. The backlash from this thing would kill a normal person, but as long as she wore this prototype armor it would be ok. They'd been able to duplicate the strength enhancing properties of the gantz suits but this armor still lacked the protective force field. She'd have to leave most of the close range fighting to Manticore. She and the wolf both leapt from the roof of the building and began to head for where Dan was fighting Shirow and Tjad.

Somewhere else

Gmr, and Iitachi were taking in what was going on when Gmr heard a familiar voice. "Oooh....this place is quite a mess isn't it!" Dr. Gaylord ran up to them. "So where you two headed?" Before they could answer several soldiers ran around the corner with their guns up, before they could fire Gaylord pointed his pimp cane at them, it aopened up and rapid fired dozens of little metal darts. The soldiers all fell to the ground out cold.

Harry watched all this from further away, that guy definatly wasn't normal.

Somewhere else

Cochefts, Jpimpin, Asuka and Electra all appeared on the roof of a building overlooking the devastation, someone was already there waiting for them, a woman dressed in black she looked to be of indian descent but had pointy ears and red eyes.

"Finnally here! How nice..." Pavarti remarked as she formed two mini scythes.

[♠DJ-JISHAKU♠]

The moment he feels the attention on himself he pops out the grenade and peals the lamination off the "bearbond". He waits for the attack but nothing happens just then they turn there attention to the main combat and head off the building. "no NO your mine." And he uses the springing action of the sword to catapault him high into the air , as he comes down he aims for the wolfs back and drops onto him and slaps the set stcky grenade into the wolves neck fur. The very second the grenade connects he springs back up , as he vaults up into the air he grabs up the EMP gun and doses the female from above with a full powered EMP shot.
He lands on the corner of the building and pops out his Assult weapon and begins firing a volly down at the wolf and pulls the X-pistol with the other hand and begins firing full shots on the girl.

[Shad²]

Tjad smiles at Dan's last comment. It seemed almost as if Dan was recognizing him as an equal.

''You still don't get it do you...I already won. You couldn't protect your friend. I have no intention in killing you.''

Tjad was trying to buy time to figure out a plan to beat this guy. But something strange about him. Why wasn't he sad about his friend? Unless if she isn't dead at all. He'd seen that before. Maybe she was something like those aliens. Tjad looks at the spot where he just shot her but she wasn't there anymore.

Damn it... Where'd she go?

He was starting to panic a little but made sure to stay calm and hold his cool. The enemy musn't suspect anything. It was time to figure out a plan. His suit is stronger than any other suit. he survived a blast like that like it was nothing. The X-Rifles wouldn't work he needed the Y-Guns. Tjad puts on a defying smile on his face and looks Dan in the eyes.

''But if you plan to attack me, I have no choice but to defend myself''

Tjad throws his X-Rifle at him hard enough to crack through a normal human skull straight after that he throws one Pepperbomb straight at him and one to the left and right for if he evades the first one. Immediately after he forms a large sword swinging it around him and shrinks it back to normal size while taking out his Y-Gun locking on to Dan. Not risking any chance of being caught off guard by Dokukko he jumps on a nearby rooftop and fires his Y-Gun from up there ready to send him anytime.

Meanwhile.

As Itachi watches Dr. Gaylord shoot all the soldiers down he takes out his M4A1 In selfdefence but doesn't shoot just yet.

''Why are these soldiers attacking us?''

He wasn't sure what was happening but Itachi wasn't planning on killing a human being just yet.

[®onnie ®ude]

GmR ignored Itachi and addressed the situation of the now passed out soldiers. He felt around until his hands reached his helm and felt for a pulse. There was none.

''Why are these soldiers attacking us?'' Itachi asked.


GmR glared blindly toward Gaylord's actions and once again ignoring the old man. "How could you kill...wait...they can see us?" GmR's anger left him for a minute as he had just heard Itachi. His hand then went to his chin. "If normal humans can see us then Dan might have been justified for this destruction. However, killing is killing. And you my friend just killed those soldiers. Normally I would slit your throat but, your new here am I right? Try to keep that gadget of yours on a more non-lethal setting. Oh ya, and thanks for saving my life."

As he finished he walked towards a random soldiers corpse and kicked it. "I hate cops..." He whispered.

This had been a very weird thing for GmR to say and do. He was a gentle human being that would have been gravelingat the sight of death before him. Was he use to it by now? Either way GmR had not even begun to consider the alteration going on inside him.

GmR adjusted his goggles and began running off through the trail of destruction Dan had left behind,"Don't follow me you'll only slow me down." GmR called back to them with a cocky grin on his face.


He had plans to find Dokuko and help protec her until time ran out. It was the least he could do to help Dan. As he ran on for a few more minutes the smoking area of death was gone and replaced by a vacated side of town. Just a few blocks shy of reaching the barrier of the game area. A girl ran past him and he grabbed her arm. "Oniko is that you?" GmR smirked in hopes of meeting her again. He knew it were possible for her to see him being that the soldiers did.

[♠DJ-JISHAKU♠]

He yells "I'm sorry , your so beautiful , but I GOTTA!" He empties the mag. and drops the Assult weapon but continues to fire at the girl with the X-pistol the shots become shorter fast half shots.

[Kaosu]

Before Gantz could answer, Kaosu was transported out of the room and into the area.
