[blurred images, starting with things that occurred in the first chapter, ending with things that will occur within the next three] [BUT THIS IS OUR GALAXY] Two brothers battled each other for control of our galaxy. With opposite but extreme powers and abilities, each managed to control one half of the galaxy. As they warred, chaos swept among the planets. The people cried for peace. They made only one request of the two kings who ruled over them – that a special police force be created, one without any influence from either government. Thus, the restoration of order ensued, through the creation of IRIS ------[end intro] [chapter title page] IRIS The 53rd Division Planetary Exploration 5002: The Fan Girl ------ [scene – inside of Suboji’s office, Suboji and Simpson are arguing] Simpson: As they were arrested in our division, the robbers belong in our custody! Just cause some brat managed to knock a couple down when they weren’t paying attention doesn’t mean that you get any priority! [Suboji’s eyes are the shape of the lower half of a circle; this is his I-am-currently-thinking-of-ways-to-kill-you look, though anyone who doesn’t know him would think he was daydreaming or spacing out, or looking right past them. This is the case for Simpson] Simpson: Are you listening to me?! The damage your ship caused is inexcusable, even for the blundering idiots that work in the 53rd division! More importantly, the orphanage is considered a public building, which means it belongs to the Blue government, how do you think IRIS is going to handle that?! Suboji: [now really angry, but still calm] [puts his hand down on the desk with the cigarette glowing between his fingers] My officer made a pin point shot towards the side of the building. The area was mostly soil with various patches of grass for the children to play ball on. No one was injured; no one was even scratched. As for the ‘damage’, the children say it’s easier to slide on base now that the rocks have been broken up. [with his thumb hidden from view, he presses a button on the side of his desk. A chime sounds.] Koji is calling me to the interrogation rooms. Unfortunately the radio box that we believed was set to contact the leader of the terrorist group was destroyed during the retaliation. Please excuse me. [Suboji walks past Simpson who makes an ugly, angry face. Before he can leave, however, Simpson slams his fist into the wall.] Suboji: [mumbling as he often does]…damaging IRIS property… Simpson: Those prisoners should not be on this ship!! [Simpson suddenly gasps, a sweat drop appearing on his face.] [Suboji is giving him the glare of someone ready to kill; this is suboji’s I-have-planned-and-am-now-ready-to-kill-you glare, and unlike his other look it is quite unmistakable] Suboji: [serious, both hands to the side, but slightly tense] The IX468 article of the IRIS bylaws states that “criminals apprehended in a division unassigned to the arrestors are to remain in the hands of those arrestors; assumption rules the arrestors to contain the appropriate abilities,” etc. These men are officially to be placed in the hands of the division whose number is on the hand cuffs. [he turns back towards the door, and opens the door and enters the door way, when Simpson collapses on his knees] Simpson: Are you saying you know some of the bylaws by heart? Suboji: [does not turn around] I can restate all I-CXVIII bylaws line by line. But I think it is far more important to be able to read the words between the lines… well, anyways, I must be off. [he exits, leaving Simpson in disbelief alone in the room] Simpson: (to himself) We all have to kill people sometimes in this business, but he…. [image of Suboji walking down the hall, meeting an officer who hands him some papers] …. Has the look of a real murderer…. [suddenly angry] Bastard… --- [scene – Jun is exploring the 53rd division’s ship.] [frame 1: multiple chibi juns are exploring the bridge.] [frame 2: multiple chibi juns are exploring around the interrogation room, where Suboji is. One chibi jun is taking a cigarette away from Suboji and shaking his head. Suboji has a # on his forhead and his eyes are the shape of the lower half of a circle with small black pupils.] [frame 3: multiple chibis exploring the cafeteria.] [frame 4: multiple chibis exploring the engineering room; adjacent frame 5: all the chibis being kicked out of the engineering room with either tears or >_< expressions.] Jun: [one eye closed, teary, rubbing his bottom, looking a little bruised.] So that’s Koji. What a nazi. [he stands up to brush himself off, when the noise of a screaming girl comes down towards him, his eyes bulging.] [the girl bursts through the metal in the ceiling, and lands on top of him, knocking him onto the ground. She lands on her rump on Jun’s chest, her arms are spread out to the sides, her hands and fingers extended to their full length, her expression something like XD or ||D. She’s a teenage girl, 15 or 16, wearing a school girl uniform, with an ideal figure. Her light brown hair falls a little past her shoulders, and her slightly curved bangs are complimented by a red headband.] [the girl suddenly realizes the Jun is crushed.] [she moves off him. Jun now has swirly eyes.] Girl: [both hands cupped near her mouth.] Gomene! [takes tiny tip-toe steps quickly backwards as she says each word.] Gomene Gomene Gomene! [takes several rapid steps backwards, vanishing down the hall as Jun sits up, rubbing his head painfully] (as she moves down the hall) I was only trying the Hikaru approach of introductiiiooonnnn… (Her voice echoes up the hall as she vanishes.) Jun: Who was that girl? And where am I? [frame of a puzzled Jun with the words “Suddenly Lost” bubbled around his head.] Suboji: [appearing] Officer Jun. Jun: Hirou cop person commander dude! (tiny words next to Jun: thank goodness) [they start walking down the hall] Suboji: Call me Director Hiroushi. I’ve worked out the paper work to have you transferred to this division. You aren’t the first officer to have never been trained in the academy. (more to himself)...of course, they only let me do this because of this division’s reputation... Jun: huh? Suboji: You’ll need to register a full name. That the nuns let you go this long without a last name is a negligence not permitted inside IRIS. Also, I’ll be commencing some training of my own. [they enter a room. Nothing is in it except a floor matt, and against the wall is a shelf with some hand-to-hand combat weapons.] Eliisa: [limited view of her lips and upper body] Ara, it’s the shounen from early! [view of Eliisa, the school girl from earlier. She has a make up kit in her hand and is painting some red make up onto her cheeks.] Jun: [expression of what-are-you-doing] Hey, you aren’t painting small red ellipses on your cheeks, are you? Eliisa: [quickly finishes the makeup] [with her eyes ^_^, she somehow has a waitress’s circular tray in one hand against her lap and is hold her other hand like a waitress welcoming her customer] Irashai! I will be your opponant, kochirokoso! Jun: Hah?!?! Suboji: [eyes closed, one hand gripping an unlit cigarette that he is raising to his lips] Eliisa, there’s no way that Jun could understand Japanese. Besides, why are you trying to speak it when you aren’t even Japanese yourself? Jun: Hah? What’s Japanese? Eliisa: Datte datte datte!! It’s sooooo much cuter to say it that way. Suboji: More cute. Eliisa: [looking down and twiddling her forfingers] Besides, the Japanese were superior when they created electronics and television programs and- Jun: What’s a Japanese? Who’s a Japanese? Suboji: Jun, Eliisa will be your opponant. If you can’t beat her in a week, forget about creating a last name and go back to the orphanage. Jun: Hah?! A girl?! [spinning chibi with crossed eyes, words in the background: totally confused] [Eliisa goes towards the weapons cabinet and selects a wooden rod the size of a baton.] Eliisa: This will be my weapon. You better select something as well. Oh, right, Subo-chan said you can create your own weapon… well, lets see what you can do! Jun: Um... Eliisa: [fighting stance] I may not have an S.A., but I have a high P.S.A. Don’t think I’ll be an easy opponent!! [she attacks. Her two swings are high, and Jun dodges them by leaning back. She instantly spins the rod towards his legs, and he barely avoids it by flipping backwards.] Eliisa: Heh, you aren’t bad at dodging. Jun: [sweating heavily] O-of course! I wouldn’t loose to a girl! Eliisa: [angry expression without pupils] NANI?!! Fine! No holding back!! [frame 1] Eliisa: Release! [swings the rod like a baton and sends a chibi Jun spinning into the ceiling.] [frame 2] Eliisa: Moon Tiara Magic! [throws the rod, which comes spinning at chibi Jun like a boomerang and knocks him in the head] [frame 3] Eliisa: Oshiyokiyo! [catches the rod, which has returned to her through its spinning.] [frame 4] Eliisa: Ribbon Mint Echo! [throws the rod as if it were a lance or an arrow. The rod knocks into chibi Jun’s chest, his eyes bulging (along with the enormous lump on his head and his frazzled hair).] [frame 5] Jun: (Maybe it’s that time of the month.) [chibi Jun has been pinned by the rod (it’s pinned to his shirt) to the wall – the rod has actually smashed into the wall.] Eliisa: Hmph. [eye lids down, she exists] [now at the doorway] There’s no way you’ll be able to stay on this ship. Jun: [swirly eyes] Mama... Papa... little stripped kitty... Shakespeare’s ghost... someone... help... ----------------------- [ Picture] Intelligent Research Internet Station
