6 “The CODEX”

Entering the cafe, I was a little bit confuse on how or what to do. Siting at a lonely table, seconds later a girl wearing a service cloth came to me, "what is your order sir" using my scarf to cover the metallic thing on my neck I ask my order. "ahh… one large of chocolate sundaes" I ask, "okay then sir please wait for your order".

It took me some minutes until my order arrives, one large sundaes were in front of me flavored with chocolate and many more varieties of fruits. Slowly digging my food thinking a past memories my sister, my place, and how I obtain this power.

After I was pushed by Jheny my sister at the cave I found a place, a large cavern with a small pond having its own ecosystem where glowing mushrooms brightening the place, small waterfall can be heard as it flows gently at the pond. 50 meters away a hole was drilled by something,the open night sky and the moon light shines an old different aircraft covered in mosses, rocks and dirt.

Thinking nothing I went there not caring what would happen, but before I could do another step few feet away the unidetified craft triggered without a warning.

Releasing powerful force as it slams my body to numbness, within the chamber of the craft a humanoid awakens from its hibernation but not just him the people that are chasing me and my sister notice a large outburst of energy.

Remembering the past a group of people enteres the building disrupting my dessert. I can see that this guys are looking for trouble, eating my chocolate sundaes one guy came to my table saying that this is his table, but still I just sit there eating.

"Didn't you hear me, are you deaf!" says the man who seems to be their leader. But unknowingly a woman came, "mister" showing her I.D card from the Athena.

Seeing her I.D the men quickly left.

Letting out a breath the woman looks at me with curiosity and since I was acting deaf she said to stay away from trouble, "you should stay away from trouble" she says beautiful, blond hair woman, kind and soft spokening. To the counter I went to pay but I was short in money, "ahh.. I'm sorry sir but…", embarrassment came, suddenly the woman who drives away the troublesome gang came to my aid. With a relief, "good heavens I'm saved", opening her pocket bringing out a gold card, "madam I'll take care of this".

"Shame on you Arishok, shame on you", I say to myself for not knowing how society works since I been with the ORDER for a long time not knowing the outside word. Thanking the lady who saved me, "ahh… no need to worry mister, its good I was here". 'RING-RING-RING' a phone rings intensely at her pocket, "MISS LARA PLEASE COME TO THE ATHENA HEADQUARTER AN ENEMY HAS BRIGE ROOM 407", "understood I'll be there as soon as possible". Without saying a word, she immediately run leaving me behind.

"Okay, I should go back to school or should I".

At room 407 in the Athena headquarters, a heated battle erupts, three mechanical robots slowly taking advantage out of five Athena user. "Damm when will reinforcement arrive" says Kristof along with his four companions who are shutdown unable to move due to energy depletion.

Kristof was still fighting the three unknown enemy, a woman within the room of the Codex is monitoring the battle, "of course your no match to my anti-Athena AA460" griming in victory. "mhh well, I'm bored time to get the treasure", touching the keyboard she was able to control the other two anti-Athena, diverting them while the other is keeping Kristof and the lass at bay.

Before Kristof nearly being stab by his enemy, Lara immediately appear bridging the hallway stabbing the enemy, "stop don't get too close" warning Lara but it was too late, a force field abruptly explode within the enemy depleting their energy, but Lara was able to activate her shield.

"ho… what do we have here", say the woman monitoring the battle.

While the two were searching at some room, the other one was still fighting Lara head on, while Kristof stocks up some energy, 30%-40%-50% with enough fuel Kristof can now support Lara. Firing his range weapons, he was able to knock back the enemy staggering for only a second, enough time for Lara to slice one of its wings, stepping out, distance herself shifting to range weapons laser struck altering the enemy but the mechanical robot stood still even its parts was desolated with a final blow slicing it half ending the fight.

While the two AA460 Anti-Athena was still searching for something, one of them was suddenly attack cutting one of its arm, it was Hina the president. Clenching her teeth the woman who was monitoring angry shouted, "does it had to be her all the time", "April I think we should fall back" says the man who seems to be her assistant, "I got it I got it, but let me first give this bitch a payback". Typing the keyboard she smiles while watching Hina slashing and lasering the AA460.

Hina's sword brightens filling it with energy, with a quick dash slashing it in half, "I think we're not done yet" April says.

An electrical field with a force powerful enough to blow a large truck explodes tremendously hitting Hina throwing her in the wall leavin her a slight injuries.

Returning to school I can feel some small vibration beneath the ground, thinking that there might be some brawl going on. Since all the information regarding this school was obtained the architectural plan, the underground basement all of it was saved through my head.

"initiating tactical mode" … with a smile I follow the best way leading to the underground basement "the sewer".
