Brandon recognized him "Tjad? What are you doing here?"
"I was looking for Dan. Who is that?"
"This is Mariah." Brandon sat Mariah down on top of one of the bean bag chairs and walked over to look out the door to make sure no one was out there.
"What happened?"
"We were attacked."
"By who?"
"Harry McDowell." When Brandon was sure that he hadn't been followed he too sat down.
"What happened to Dan?"
"I don't know." Brandon hadn't seen what happened since he had fled with Mariah before the fight with Bob had really started to heat up.
Meanwhile
When Bob returned to the millenion building he made his report to Harry.
"So you blasted her head off then?"
"Yeah, she was pretty tough, not one of ours, who do you suppose could have made her?"
"I know what she is. Bob, the thing is up until now I've been keeping some secrets from you and the others. But there's no point in that anymore. Bob, the thing is that creature you fought, I encountered it once before, and I don't think simply ripping its head off will be enough to kill it."
"What do you mean by that? Even I couldn't survive that!"
"Don't worry Bob, next time we won't be taken by suprise." As Bob left the room Harry made up his mind, before killing the gantzers, he would have one last use for them.
Back at the wearhouse
Brandon and Tjad had just finished explaining their situations to each other when the door opened. Shadow Dokuko walked inside,her wounds were all healed but she was looking a little worn out immediatly she seemed to snap back into action ons potting Tjad. "What the fuck are you doing back here again?Damn it! I should have just killed you and taken your weapon the last time we met." she said sounding frustrated.
"I didn't come back here to die."
"You want to fight then? Are you brain damaged? Even though I'm all tired out from fighting the goodyear blimp your still no match for me in that condition." She sat down on a beanbag chair on the other side of the room from Tjad sprawling out on it, her stomach growled, after expending that kind of energy she needed to consume matter, the only thing she had done was take in moelcules from grass and other organic matter to heal her wounds but that had done very little to replenish her lost energy. When the original Dokuko had been alive they would sometimes sneak into supermarkets, Dokukos appitite had been big enough to completely clean out some of the smaller places they had hit especially after fighting.
"Aww jeez...I'm so hungry....you guys don't have anymore roasted dogs around here?" the giants all shook their heads.
"Listen the reason why I came here...hey why are you looking at me that way?" She was staring at Tjad like a wolf looking at an antelope. A bit of drool fell from her mouth burning into the floor.
"Don't worry about that, just explain why your here."

''I came for redemption. I did alot of bad shit because of...'' Tjad stopped there looking at Mariah. If she would know about Gantz his head would explode.''...because of It. I want to get out of It and I want It to pay. I figured if anyone could do it it'd be you. Also something big is going to happen. I feel it in my gut. And right now there are three parties: Ga...It, Harry and you. Of all of them you're the only one with a bit of honor left and that's side I want to be on when all hell breaks loose.''

"I don't like it, I'd like nothing more then to snap your neck. But I can see now that as I am I can't beat them. Do the other gantzers know what Harry is up to? And does he know that your against him?"
"Not exactly. After the mission where you died Harry told us he may have found a way to escape it using some strange nanites that he found."
"Good, if he thinks you aren't acting against him, you probably have a better chance of finding out exactly what it is he's up to. ButI can tell you this, what you said about the nanites makes sense, gantz put a device in your head, it not only acts as a listening and execution device, but it also monitors your whereabouts so that the it has no trouble teleporting you back. He probably got the nanites from Indra, what we don't know is what Indra and the others have to gain from this deal."
"You know an awful lot about it."
"I should, when Dokuko assimalated me, all the schematics on how to construct it were stored in memory. What Harry said was no lie about possibly escaping, it could be disabled using nanites. I could probably disable the device in your head using my own nanites but..."
"Then do it!" Tjad could hear a ringing sound in his head, what did it mean? It sounded just like when a gantzer starts to get to close to being out of bounds.
"There's a good chance your head would explode before I could even touch you. If Harry managed to inject himself in a discreet way Gantz may not have noticed until it was too late. But we were just talking about it now, you can bet that the black ball is watching you now. If I were to try to free you, you would be executed on the spot, and as much as I hate to say it your no use to me dead. I'm getting kind of hungry, and to be honest I'm begining to think that youd taste kind of good roasted over an open fire, so we should probably get something to eat before anything bad happens."

''uhh... Yeah. We should.''
''I guess there's nothing to do about it then. I guess I'll just have to keep fighting for Gantz.''
As Tjad was saying this he winked at Dan and then slowly he formed words on the floor:
Use the nanites in the next mission. Surprise me.

OOC: The next post I make will begin the action that will result in gmrs death. If you want to do anything before that be sure to do it before my next post which will be sometime in the next few days.
IC:
"Hmmm...the next mission..." she thought to herself as she opened the door and stepped outside. For a moment she sniffed the air. "Tjad go into stealth mode."
"Wha..." before he could say anything more a tentacle wrapped around his waste lifting him into the air as she leapt onto the roof darting away. Tjad still wasn't in the best of condition from his ordeal and getting carried around like this was making him a little sick. They evantually came to a stop near the docks, a fishing boat seemed to be loading up a fresh catch into a truck.
"Ahhh....I knew it..."
"Wait a minute your not going to...." Before Tjad could protest he was yanked intot he air again as Shadow Dokuko leapt on top of the truck full of fish. Her tentacles morphed fanged mouths and all began to devour the fish. Tjad covered his nose "How can you eat that stuff, it smells so bad!"
"Mmmmmppphh..." Shadow had a large salmon sticking out of her mouth. She swallowed it like a snake "This is the breakfast of champions!"
"Breakfast? It's night right now!"
"Then it's night breakfast! Don't talk to me while eating Mmmmpphhh..."
About half an hour later the truck stopped
The men driving the truck opened it up and began to cry when they noticed all the fish were gone.
"You ate more then a ton of raw fish...Where did you put it all? I mean really, there was more fish then your body weight, hows this possible?"
"Ahhh...yeah...I feel alive again!" Shadow didn't seem to have put on any weight either.
"No seriously how? What you just did is physically impossible!"
"Dont sweat the small stuff. Now that I got my energy back there's one thing left to do." She took out a katana and hacked off one of her hands tossing it to Tjad.
"Doesn't that hurt?"
"This sort of pain is meaningless." The stump of her hand was already growing back. "Take that hand with you, it'll help you insvestigate Harry."
"How?"
"You'll see. It'll also help me communicate with you. Now that you've seen where were hiding so has gantz. We need to move to some place that you don't know of now."
"I see..."
"That's all I have to discuss with you now, so I'll be on my way." Shadow turned to leave.
"Wait, how will this help me contact you?" The stump of the severed hands wound had already closed.
"You'll see..." Her dorsal fins glowed before she shot off into the sky like a rocket heading back towards the wearhouse.
After that Tjad headed home with some difficulty given that he was currently handicapped with his wounds. When Tjad got to his bed he put the hand down on the table next to it and turned out the lights exhausted.
The next day
Something seemed to be iching Tjads nose, moved his hand to scratch it but to his suprise he ended up smudging his own face with shaving cream.
"What the fuck?" Tjad sat up only to hit his head on a frying pan hanging from the ceiling. "Oww shit! What the hell?" Tjad looked around the room but didn't see anyone. But then he noticed the hand that he had put down on the table last night was gone! Whoever had done this had stolen the hand! This didn't make sense, who would do something like that? Tjad looked around franticlly.
"Hey, what's up? You lost your wallet or something?" he heard someone ask. Tjad turned to see a miniature version of Shadow Dokuko only several inches tall with a bottle of shaving cream strapped on her back using several tentacles.
"No way! How?!?"
"If a piece of me breaks off, it becomes a new me if my original body is destroyed. However, since both the me you see before you, and the me you met last night currently still exist for all intents and purposes were both the same entity. Even though we exist in different locations, our brains are completely syncronised, in other words you can communicate with me in real time from a distance using this smaller extension of my body. Do you understand?"
"It's too early in the morning for this...what I do understand is that you put shaving cream on my hand when I was asleep."
"That's preposterous. If I had pulled a prank on you, I would have superglued your other hand to somewhere that's inconvenient and amusing."
"Hey...my hand! Arghhh...why did you put it there of all places?! You little.... It won't come off!"
"Jeez, just use your suit to deconstruct the glue molecules...."
"I took it off when I went to bed."
"Well ok then...While your getting that glue off, I'm going to be in the other room...uhhh doing important stuff."

As Tjad was trying to free his hand he knew Dan had done not to take revenge or annoy him but just for the sake of it. This would cause alot of trouble. A few minutes later a sound of paper being teared apart could be hurt with a oppressed scream. Tjad had gotten his hands off and not only his hand either. He felt bad for how his gems looked like now but it would heal in the next mission so he didn't worry about that alot. He put on his suit and went to the room Dan was in.
''Dan...'' As he said this Tjad remembered what had happened last night. This was Dan anymore. No longer a human in an alien body. This really was Shadow Dokukko.''I mean Shadow. We need to head to Harry's. Make him believe I'm on his side. We need to gain his trust. But I can barely with the state you put me in and the police is probably looking for me... again.''

OOC: I know I said my next post would start gmrs death storyline, but since that'll take place a couple weeks after the events that just happened, I realized that the deal with Tjad trying to get Harries Trust needs to be taken care of in the current timeframe before that happens or it'll seem garfunkly, so it'll come after the stuff with Harry gets finished.
IC:
"I could heal your wounds, but if I make any sort of contact with you gantz might decide to error on the side of caution and blow your head off just to be on the safe side so we'll have to get by with your wounds. Now that I think about it in hindsight, I actually had alot of opportunites to escape gantz when I was human and didn't know it, I mean we had sex just about every night. Dokuko was a nice person but kind of an air head about some things so she never thought to do that. On the other hand I never told her much about Gantz so it might be my fault things turned out like that, if only we knew we could have escaped...." Shadow suddenly looked angry as she remembered Tjads part in Dokukos death "Why the hell am I telling this to you!? You....no gotta put that aside right now....Just tell Harry a slightly modified version of the truth about how you got those wounds. Since Harry knows I'm his enemy, the fact that you two have a common foe would make him more likely to trust you. All you need to do is make up some bullshit about how you escaped from me instead of how I let you go. Just make sure it sounds convincing and it'll be great."
"But what about the cops?"
"Right now that's our biggest obsticle, your a gimp and it'll take you awhile to get to Harry. There's no choice, weve got to hotwire a car and get over there. Just act nonchalantly and we probably won't get pulled over. "
"What?!? I'm already wanted, don't you have a better way?"
"It can't be helped your a gimp! If we tried to walk there it could take days!"
"Yeah but still..."
"You also need something to carry me in. Too bad your not a girl, if you were I'd be able to ride around in your bra, thated be pretty fun traveling like that."

Tjad had a satisfying grin on his face.
''hmmm... Something to carry you in... Now where can i find that?'' Tjad bent down to Dokukko's level and grinned even wider. He stands up and walks in the bedroom. A few moments later he comes back with his hands around his back.
''Maybe... THIS will help'' He pulls a backpack over Dokukko's head and quickily closes.
''Now don't make any trouble now. Or we'll be caught''

"Jeez it smells all funky in here. Wait a minute, I'm next to an old bag of potato chips, I don't trust old chips, their all soggy... hey is this an unopened condom? I bet I could fit my head inside this thing!" it sounded like she was trying to open up the condom, Tjad didn't know what she was doing with it.
Tjad hobbled out of the house and spotted a car. He hobbled over to it, and began to pick the lock on it. He was in stealth mode right now, but he'd have to turn that off when he actually drove away, a car with no driver would look too suspicious. Tjad was no expert in hotwiring cars but he eventually got it up and running. He turned off his stealth and drove off. At first it wasn't so bad but as the car drove further into Tokyo it became more and more crowded. The chances of something going wrong would be greater with more people around. However mirculously nothing had gone wrong yet, he was close to the Millenion building now. All he needed to do was find a parking spot. Tjad carefully avoided several pedestrians as he turned the corner.
Shadow peeked over the edge of the backpack looking a little sick and said "Unnghh...if you ever get all small don't ever try sticking your head in a condom especially if your in a bag with soggy old chips....oh crap not onions!" she ducked back in the bag.
In a warehouse somewhere on the other side of town
"Take my green onions!" onion jr offered a slimy green onion to shadow who was looking pretty sick.
"BLAEEEGHHHH!" the full grown Shadow vomited on the floor melting a large hole in it.
"Green onions are good enough for me..." Onion jr said holding his nose backing away from the toxic cloud rising from the floor.
Back in the car
"Unnnhhh....keep that onion away from me! I don't want your onions especially now!"
"Uhhh...who are you talking to?"
"Don't worry about it, just drive...curse you onions...." In Tjads moment of distraction he felt the car lurch foreward as he rear ended someone. Tjad turned pale as he saw that he had just hit a cop car.
"Oh shit! I just rear ended a cop car! We were so close!"
"Wha...for real?"
"YES FOR REAL!" the cop looking a bit dazed from bumping his head got out of the car.
"Activate your stealth mode, he can't give you any trouble if he can't see you." Tjkad quickly took out his controller.
"What the hell?" The cop said to himself, he could have sworn he saw someone there a moment ago. But now no one was in the car. How could a car with no driver rear end him?He walked up to it, the drivers side door was unlocked, there were no keys though. It looked like someone had hotwired it. This car was stolen, as he pulled the door open it felt as if someone suddenly kicked the door hard knocking it into him. He thought he could hear someone hobbling away, it sounded like some old guy with a cane but he couldn't see anyone. What was going on?
It had been difficult but Tjad had managed to get to the Millenion building in one piece. He wiped a bit of sweat from his brow as he got inside the elevator and set it for the floor Harrys office was on. He hobbled out of the elevator and headed for Harrys office. However just as he was reaching the final stretch of his journey he felt someone tap him on the shoulder.
"Tjad? What are you doing here?" it was Asuka, she was also in stealth mode.
"Asuka? I was just coming by to talk to Harry about something. It's a little urgent."
"I'll have to clear it with him first. Harrys out at the moment but he should be back shortly. By the way, your a mess, what the hell happened to you?"
"It's a long story."
Shadow peeked out of the bag and saw Asuka. She remembered her from the missions. She was wearing her gantz suit right now which revealed her nice proportions. "Ooooh....too bad I didn't team up with her, I couldve been riding between those instead of this stinky back pack. I hope she decides to go to the bathroom soon....no can't jeopardize the mission over something like that, gotta stay put."
Tjad sat down waiting for Harry to get back While Asuka leaned against the wall. Shadow occsaionally glanced out of the bag looking at Asuka.
"So...you look like you've been through some rough times recently. What's your story?" Asuka asked. During the last mission her partner had been killed and now she was working for Harry, the one who had been responsible for her death. Tjad wasn't wondered why she had decided to do that.

Post by Shad² on Sept 9, 2006 5:50:10 GMT -5
Tjad was surprised for a minute. Was she talking to him? What does she care?
''Story? Look, this ain't to tea party. I don't remember the past gotta look to the future. That's why I'm here to speak to Harry.''
Leaning back Tjad felt satisfied about himself improvising something like that in this kind of situation.
''Now please get me your boss.''

Asuka frowned at his response, but before anyone else could say anything an elevator opened. Harry and Bob stepped out of it.
"Oh shit its that fat bastard again! Can't make a noise!" Shadow thought to herself hiding under the bag of chips.
"Harry, this guy wanted to talk to you about something." Asuka motioned to Tjad.
"I see, I have some time so if you'll step into my office for a moment." Harry lead Tjad inside. He motioned for Asuka to stay out in the hallway. The stain from where big daddy had been killed was cleaned up entirely. Harry poured a glass of Bourbon and asked "So what was it you were so desperate to talk to me about that you came here in that condition?"

Post by Shad² on Sept 9, 2006 16:03:04 GMT -5
Tjad followed Harry in his office. As his sat down on a chair he looked around the office buying himself time to get in to his act. This was the moment of truth. No mistakes were allowed at this point. Finally he looks at Harry with a grin on his face.
''You know why I'm smiling?'' He waits for Harry to pour his bourbon and looks at him. ''My hands and feet are fucked up. The cops are looking for me and I'm just about 16 years old. I got crucified. Crucified by Dan. Harry, he's back and he's mad. I barely survived. But still I'm smiling. Wanna know why? I had a revelation. Why are you and me still enemies? We're in the same shit. I know what you're up to. I've always known it. I just didn't know how to stop you. But then I thought. Why should I? Why not join you. Fuck the past. The future is the way.''

"He's back? Hows that possible?" Harry breifly wondered if Gantz brought him back to try to kill him, but that specualation was soons hot down.
"He seems to have merged with that alien from the mission before the eggs on the plane."
"I see, that explains it, if thats the case I already encountered him once, I thought something seemed different about that alien. You say you know what I'm up to? Tell me, what exactly do you think you know?" if Tjad told him he knew where he got the nanites from Harry might be suspicious.
"I know that your using those nanites to make an army of monsters."
"Yes the org men. How did you find out about them? Did Dr Gaylord or that bear leak the information? Or did you sneak into one of my factories?"
"I found out on my own, no one helped me."
Harry looked slightly suspicious at this. "If your trying to protect someone it won't matter for much longer."
"What do you mean by that?"
Harry dodged his question "You don't know everything. Yes I'm making monsters, but you have no comprehension of the scale, once the technology was deciphered it was remarkably easy to create them. Right now my org men are being mass produced in secret factories across Japan. I can sell these super soldiers to all the war hungry countries of the world for astronomical prices. But it won't stop there, recently weve discovered how to unlock even deeper secrets in this technology."
"What secrets?" Tjad figured it probably had something to do with Bob who was much stronger then the regular org men.
"All things in due time. If your truly on my side, it could be dangerous for you if I told you that information. And if your not on my side it would be inconvenient for me. Either way you'll have to show a little patience to find out."
What did harry mean by that?
"I am on your side! What do I need to do to prove it?"
"Hmmm...as a matter of fact I do have one idea. Dan or that alien or whatever it is, it has an ally, an ally whose very important to me. Do you remember Brandon Heat?"
"Yeah...you were the one who killed him."
"Yes, killing Brandon is one of my few true regrets, but sometimes sacrifes must be made in order to get to the top. Brandon....why...." Harry turned and looked out the window for a moment before continuing.
" Brandon has also returned, but not as a gantzer, he's something simialer to our org men now. He's allied himself with the alien that crucified you. If you want to prove yourself, after I've located Brandon I'll have you accompany Gmr in a mission to kill him and that alien."
"Gmr? Why Gmr?"
"As I said before, show a little patience, you'll find out soon enough."

Post by Shad² on Sept 11, 2006 14:41:14 GMT -5
Tjad sighed trying to figure out what GmR had to do with all of this. Had he joined Harry? For what. That'd come later.
''I'll take both of them down. But I won't be able to do shit in this condition. Also me and GmR won't be enough to take those two down. If we're lucky we can take them by surprise or by sheer numbers. I've seen Dan's power. It literally is scary.''
Now there was another problem. How would he get out of this situation. He'd have to fight Shadow and Brandon. This was going to be troublesome.

Post by Defectron on Sept 11, 2006 22:37:27 GMT -5
"You won't be fighting them alone. But you shouldnt worry too much, one of my men already encountered Dan and know what his limits are. I wouldnt initiate a fight I didn't think I could win."
"You have some ace up your sleeve?"
"You'll see. If that's all you have to say I have some other things to attend to right now. My men will contact you when the targets are located. If you like I could arrange for some of my specialists to treat your wounds."
When harry said this Tjad could feel something that felt like a small blade cut into the part of his body closest to the backpack. A tiny tenticle went inside when he looked at it. Shadow wanted to tell him something. Then Tjad thought about the first thing Harry said.
"You know where I live?"
"You would be suprised. If you want to take up my offer just call me at this number." Harry handed his number to Tjad.
Tjad left the room feeling a bit uneasy about that. "We might have a problem." a voice from inside his backpack said.
"I know, he knows where I live."
"That's not it, he may try to free you from gantz on his own terms. You heard him say that if your truly on his side that information could be dangerous to you? I think I know what he meant, I'd be careful if he tries to give you any drinks or shots, if he does free you I have a feeling it wouldnt be without a price."
They got in an elevator "What about the fight? How are we going to do this?"
"It would be troublesome if Harry took us by suprise, instead of waiting for him to find us I'll reveal myself to his forces on my own terms when I'm ready. Harry was wrong when he said he knew all my capabilities, I have one that he isn't aware of yet, and that will give me the advantage when..." before she could finish her sentance she seemed to space out and start talking to someone else who wasn't Tjad.
At Shadow and Brandons hideout
Shadow had been sitting in the corner looking a little sick for the past few hours. Brandon was out doing something right now and Mariah was feeling a bit uneasy around all these strange creatures alone. Shadow seemed the most human of them all, she didn't know much about her and decided to try making some small talk to break the awkward atmosphere.
"Ummm...aren't you a little cold?" she asked, summer had come and gone, the days were starting to get cooler now which made all the stranger this girl was walking around with no clothes on.
Shadow looked up from her daze "You talking to me?" Mariah nodded.
"I can withstand temperatures that can kill a human, besides any clothes I wear would just be destroyed when I transform, too much of a hassle for someone lazy like me." She talked just like a human, an odd human, but a human nonetheless, was this girl really an alien like Brandon had said?
"B-but aren't you embarrassed...?"
"No..." Shadow seemed to be attempting to concentrate on something else that Mariah couldnt see.
"I..I see...but you really should I mean uhh...."
"What?" Her irritation was becoming clear on her face.
"W...well..." Mariah was begining to think trying to start this conversation was a mistake.
"If you want to say something just say it."
"I...if you don't wear a bra your boobs will sag....at least that's how it is with humans....maybe it's different with...I'm just trying to give some advice thats all..." Shadow glared at her and Mariah shut up backing away.
Shadow looked annoyed "They won't sag. Why am I having this conversation with you?"
"Sorry..." Mariah said looking a little intimidated and backing off. Shadow normally would have felt more sympathy for her being thrust into such an odd and frightnening situation, but given the situation she couldnt afford to be distracted from what was going on at the Millenion building.
Back at Tjads location
Tjad was very confused after they got in the elevator Shadow seemed to start talking to someone who wasnt there, she sounded kind of angry.
"Who are you talking to?" he looked in the bag
"Brandons lady freind distracted me, next time we do something important I'll have to hide where there's no distractions. Now close that bag! You never know if someones watching!"
In a camera room somewhere in the Millenion building
Bob looked over the shoulder of a man monitoring the cameras.
"Whose he talking to? Is he crazy?"
"It looks like he's talking into his backpack, you don't think he has some sort of communicator in there?" another man said.
"Just let him go for now." The Bob said walking away.

As the elevator went down it stopped at a random floor. Just as the doors opened a lad walked in that was all to familar to them. He had a devious smile on his face.
Once situated in a leaning position against a guard rail in the elevator he began flipping a coin very quickly almost as if he could see it perfectly. However his goggles were well over his eyes...
"Tjad...long time no...see." As he spoke he made sure to emphasize the 'see' in his sentence. He was aware of the the mission Harry had assigned him but he had taken it on as a favor towards Dr. Gaylord. He was forever in his debt for restoring his vision. It had been a curse and now he was healed, however with it he felt strange. Maybe a bit more carefree, cocky even...the thought of killing Dan or this man named Brian didn't seem to phase him anymore.

As Soon as gmR walked in the elevator Tjad saw the smile on his face. It wasn't a normal smile, not for GmR. This was different.
"Tjad...long time no...see."
''Hmm, good for you. Don't let it get to your head, even with perfect eyesight most people stay blind.''

GmR's jaw tightened for a second before his smirk reappeared,"Oh, becoming a hypocrite are we?" As he finished he tossed the quarter in the air one last time before he caught it once again.
"I wonder how many died in that plane crash...hundreds...maybe even thousands? Its very hard to land a plane while someone is attemptng to crash it, or did you think I wouldn't figure it out?"
His grin widened even more, before adding,"This is my stop...Oh and nice talking to you again..."With that said he left the elevator with the sound of his coin flipping as he walked off.

"You crashed a plane, what the fuck were you guys doing in the last mission? Never mind that, we should leave right now!" Tjad heard a voice from his backpack say after Gmr had left. "Gmrs giving off the same feel as that fat bastard, he's not human anymore."
"Harry did something to him?"
"Most likely." the two of them exited the building.
"So how are we getting back?"
"How do you think? The same way we got here! Either that or we hitch a ride on a truck or something."
Elsewhere
Shadow suddenly got up and walked over to Mariah "I need to perfect a new battle strategy so I'll be leaving for a few weeks to practice. Tell that to Brandon when he gets back."
"Green onions!" the little green kid came running up to her offering them.
"Uhhh...yeah thanks...." Shadow reluctantly took the onions before opening the door and flying away.

OOC: heres the fixed version ic:
About five days after the last post
So far everything was going as planned, it still wasnt working completely right but after a few more weeks of this everything would be ready. Shadow , burnt and bashed up leaned against a tree in the forest as her wounds healed. Suddenly she felt the presence of something strange, it was another alien, one that felt familiar somehow.
"Well it seems we meet at last." a deep voice growled out as a huge white wolf materialized in front of her.
"You!" Neither Dan nor Shadow had encountered Mantacore, but Tjad had mentioned the powerful wolflike beast to her. "Are you Mantacore?"
"Yes, are you suprised to see me? The body that was pursuing your original was destroyed, but several backups were kept in storage. I think that useful ability is something you've become quite familiar with recently."
"Then you should know its not a good idea coming here to fight alone."
"I'm not here to fight this time. We have a common enemy, Harry McDowell."
"Whats he to you? The organization my master works for sees him as a growing threat. Normally we already would have mobilized against him, but he has a powerful allie, one that was able to easily destroy me. The higher ups are afraid of what will happen if Shiva openly decides to go against us. Shiva has no love for humans, in the centuries he's lived he's known nothing but hate from their kind, and as a result he shows nothing but hate back towards them. He has many enemies so until recently he's decided to keep a low profile and merely stick to trying to survive. But recently he's gone on the offensive, the higher ups think Harry may have something that will give Shiva an advantage against his enemies."
"He does, from what a freind of mine told me, Shiva thinks he can help him in some way. Maybe not just him but his kind as a species.”
The wolf looked agitated “Harry is mass producing creatures simialer to those Shivas kind use as their footsoldiers.”
“I know, but he also has something stronger, I thought one of them it was simialer to those zombies but much more powerful, maybe stronger then me, also the one I fought retained its personality.”
“What your describing…it can’t be….” If the wolf was capable it probably would have looked frightened as realization dawned on it about what Shiva might be using Harry to do.
“You look like you thought of something. What is it?”
" As long as you’re an enemy, my suspicions are classified information.For telling me what you know of Harry I thank you but I cannot reveal what I know in return unless you agree to an offer that I would like to make you. You see my sister sacrificed herself so that you as an indivudual could continue to exist my sisters former master."
"I never considered myself to be Dokukos master, she was a freind of mine. Whats this offer of yours?"
"I’ll get to that in a moment.Regardless of what you thought your relationship with her was, our kind were built to serve others with our very lives. When you were her master she assumed that form because it pleased you. Everything she did was for the sake of making you happy. My master also found this form of the wolf to be the most appealing to her."
"Woah...so she's into that sort of thing huh?"
"That's not what I meant!"
"So tell me, who were we built to serve?"
"That's something even I have no memory of. Ten years ago buried in the middle east a capsule was found centuries old. Inside it was two eggs, one was mine, and the other was yours. Mine hatched immediatly after the excavation, the first person I saw was captain Tachibana who was a low ranking officer at the time. Ever since then I have served her as my master, your egg was put into cryostasis until half a year ago when it was allowed to hatch because of the destruction of the base it was stored in. It is unnatural for our kind not to serve a master, join me and together we will serve captain Tachibana and help her destroy her enemies."
"I have no interest in serving anyone. As far as I'm concerned, I'm my own master."
"Very well then, if that's your answer , we will be enemies once more when we meet again. I will let you roam free for now only because you too are an enemy of Harry McDowell." the white wolf began to turn away
"So your going to use me to take care of your enemies even if we aren't allies. That's pretty underhanded Mr Woof woof!"
"Don't call me that." the wolf growled in annoyance
"Hey, before you go, can you tell me what we looked like before we assumed these forms? I never saw Dokuko before she came to me in her tentacle girl form."
"I once asked Captain Tachibana the same thng, she dodged the question by moving onto another subject." the giant wolf vanished leaving Shadow in the forest.
Several weeks later
For these past few weeks Brandon, Mariah and the aliens had been living an uneasy life in the wearhouse. Brandon didn't let Mariah go outside for her own safety since he knew Millenion was looking for them. All things considered she was handeling this situation pretty well for someone who had been living a relitively normal life until recently only to have that destroyed being thrust into a world full of aliens and zombies. Suddenly they heard the door oepn, Brandon turned around with his guns out.
"Everythings ready. Tommarow at noon we attack the Millenions Tokyo production plant for the org men."
At Tjads place
Tjad was in bed right now and had just turned out the lights, sitting on top of a nearby table was mini shadow.
"Hey..." he heard her say in the dark
"What?"
"It's starting tommarow, you better get ready."
"What? Why now!? Tjads wounds had gotten a bit better but he still wasn't in great condition.
"Because it's the right time to attack, soon a new gantz mission will be starting and we need to move before then, so be sure to be ready. Remember, after Harry, Millenion, gantz, shiva and all the others are no longer a threat, I'll be coming to kill you. Until then I wouldnt want you to die. So be sure to get some sleep, you'll be needing it." the tiny voice coming from the darkness said.
"That's something even I have no memory of. Ten years ago buried in the middle east a capsule was found centuries old. Inside it was two eggs, one was mine, and the other was yours.

Tjad opened his eyes when Mini Dokukko said he'd be coming to kill him after this. He thought that was all over. Guess he wasn't planning to let him off that easy,
''Mini me?... If I wake up tomorrow and I bust my head on something, I'll rip your head off and when it grows back on I'll rip it off again. Good night.''

Tjad woke up a little hesitant halfway expecting something to fall on his head but nohting was there. "Good, looks like she didn't do anything." as he got out of bed he felt his feet go into something that felt strange and squishy. It was a pie plate full of what looked like crap.
"Ah! You stepped in a cow pie!"
"You! Get over here!" Tjad chased after her as she leapt ontot he wall and began to run across it like a lizard.
"Wah! Scary! I didn't bonk your head on anything what are you so upset about? Everyone likes cow pie!" Tjad threw one of the lamps at her as she darted behind some furniture.
Meanwhile
Mr Kobayashi was an overweight security guard at the factory that Shadow and Brandon would be targeting today. He ate another fried dango he had picked up before coming over here. As the doors opened he suddenly questioned whether or not he was seeing things. Standing at the door were two very unusual people. One wore a dark trenchcoat with white hair and strapped to his back was what appeared to be some sort of stylized coffin. The other was a naked albino girl.
"Wh...what the hell!?" he pulled out his gun pointing it at them. Lighting fast Brandon drew his weapon and fired, the security guards weapons exploded from the force of the gun ripping his hand off along with it. Crying he went to the floor clutching his hand.
"Which way are the org men?" Brandon turned to Shadow asking.
"I'm detecting large numbers of them to the east, they seem to be inactive, if Harry catches on too quickly he might be able to activate them which will make things more difficult for us, so lets try to get there before that happens."
But before they could be on their way reinforcements began to arrive, men with machine guns came running down several halls, at least some of them didn't seem to be human.
At that moment both Gmr and Tjad heard their phones ring
"The target has been located, I'm sending some of my men over to pick you up right now to bring you to its location."

''AHHH, You idiot.''
Tjad was in the shower as he heard his phone ring.
''This is it...''
He walks out and picks up the phone.
"The target has been located, I'm sending some of my men over to pick you up right now to bring you to its location."
Tjad puts down the horn and looks at mini dokukko.
''It's begun.''
Putting on his suit and equiping himself with the little equipment he'd had left, two X-Guns and a Y-Gun, he hears a car pulling by. As he walks to the door he sees an old Gantz sword of Suzuka's which was still lying around. Tjad decides to pick it up for good luck.
''My guardian angel... yeah.''

GmR was sitting on the roof of millenions organization. He hadn't left after his surgery and had been roaming around having pretty much nothing else to do.
His left hand had just finished tieing a white bandage around his hands and wrists. His eyes looked down to the two katanas that lay connected but not exstended.
He's have to kill again...
As he noted this hs eyes widened for a mere second before his jaw tightened and a forced grin came to his face.
His gaze on the city below him was interrupted by his cell phone. However, he never picked it up so he decided to check the messages.
It was Tori...
"Umm...Miles its Tori. I just wanted to call and see what you've been up to and...well I wanted to talk about that other day-"
As she began emotions began to fill his mind from the kiss he shared with her. He didn't need this right now. Sighing he closed the phone only to have it ring again.
Answering it he to heard Harry's message and cracked his knuckles...

Brandon had taken out his two guns blasting away at the men attacking, some of their bullets hit him too, but that sort of damage didn't matter. One man with body armor fired on him, the bullet hitting him on the chest. Pointing one of his guns at him there was a loud bang as his shot tore through his body armor like paper making a large hole in his chest.
About five men were sent flying through the air as Shadows tentacles smashed into them crushing anyone who took a direct hit.
Shadow pointed both hands at the oncoming crowd blasting them with two streams of microwaves cooking them instantly. Some of them were still standing though. The remaining men began to change just like the ones that had attacked Mariahs house growing to nearly twice their orginal size. Brandon took the coffin off his back and blasted them mowing down the org men and blasting through the wall behind them in the process.
"Looks like thats the last of them." Shadow stepped through the hole Brandon made and into another hallway heading towards the main production area. Further down the hall was another group of orgmen, had Harry activated the ones in the plant? Her hand changed color as plasma fire began to come around it. "Looks like this won't be so easy."
Elsewhere
"It would be better if i stayed here. You'll see me again soon enough." Mini shadow said as Tjad got ready to go. A black car had pulled up outside the house, inside the car were two shady looking guys wearing black who rpobably worked for harry. Tjad came out to meet them.
"Its time. Get in." one of them said to him. Tjad got in back as the car drove away.
Later
The car transporting Tjad pulled up in front of the factory, from the looks of things there had been several explosions inside as several black plumes of smoke were coming from several areas of the building. Tjad got out of the car to see Harry and Bob standing nearby. But they weren't alone, as Harry had said Gmr had also been brought there, but not just him, Asuka was also there.
Harry would have preferred to have gotten the sniper and the ninja here as well. Now would have been a good opportunity to get rid of all the most skilled gantzers as well as this new threat. But he'd just have to settle for Tjad and Asuka right now, after Gmr killed the alien he'd have him turn on them.
Harry turned to Bob "These three are here to keep that damn alien out of your hair. I want you to take care of Brandon, if possible I would like to see him one more time before you kill him." The fat man nodded and walked away heading for the building.
Harry walked over to the three gantzers "You all know the situation, the tentacle girl alien is inside that factory right now. My men will be providing you with support but primarily it will be your job to take her down."

GmR snickered at Harry's orders, and wiped a stray tears from his eyes. For a second you'd wonder how he'd been keeping his laughter bottled inside and why he was laughing at all.
With a smug smile he spoke," For a second there I thought you were Gan-well you know who..." As he finished he chuckled again before continuing. "I think its best if we refer to the 'alien' as Dan, he might be a transvestite now, but Dukoko was different then him..." His eyes softened for a moment before they returned back to their reckless and cold expression,"He killed a fellow Gantzer...in my opinion thats enough to seal his fate right about there...Tjad wouldn't you agree?" He grinned towards Tjad as if hoping to get an innocent rise out of him.
His eyes then glanced towards Asuka,"And you are?"

What was he talking about? They were never a team. They were just in the same shit. That didn't make them a team. A fellow gantzer. What was that supposed to mean? GmR was acting strange. The last time he was acting cold. Now he was lik him old self. What did Harry do to him? What was Asuka doing here? This wasn't right. Something was going on.
''Let's just do this shit'' Tjad answered to GmR as he walked in the building going into STEALTH mode.
''How the fuck is this plan going to work?'' He thought to himself.
