“I will repeat myself again for your sake, criminal.

Under the authority invested to me by the Time-Space Administration Bureau, you are under arrest for charges of breaking and entering, bioterrorism, the unlawful use of mass weapons, the destruction of both public and private property and the assault on the Librarian of the Infinite Library, Yuuno Scrya.

Give yourself up and turn yourself into the custody of the TSAB and your crime shall be judged fairly.”

There was no need to repeat her request, but this woman believed in justice, that included being fair to even her enemies. She would give him a single chance, a single opportunity to change his ways.

If not… well she would get to test out the new counter anti-magic mode the Special Duty Section 6 had outfitted her holy spear with.

She will not allow this monster to kill others, she would not fail her duty another time.

On the name of her lord, and the glory of the Saint Kaiser, she will not fail today.

Your name is Tohma Avenir and you are having a bad day, rather make it the worst day in your life. You had found yourself in a lost island, gotten your hero killed, awakened machines made to kill you and even gotten attacked by some fellow Eclipse Drivers.

To make things worse, now you are standing before a TSAB Enforcer whose sole purpose is to capture and judge you.

Black clouds gather around you in the sky, and you see as the once limitless blue sky is eaten by the thunderstorm summoned by this knight of Belka.

Just as you will be swallowed by her justice.

The enforcer, brandishes her holy spear, the 5th Generation Device Terminal Gungnir, made to hunt those like you and your kind. “So what are you going to do Silberkreuz, turn yourself to our authority and we can settle this matter peacefully, if not, then I will be forced to use force to settle this matter.”

Her voice was cold and most likely she wanted this to end like that, to end with her using that spear against you.

But you had no time for this, now when Yuuno Scrya was at his deathbed, not when those other EC Drivers were gunning after you, not when the Mage Killer Killer Machines were hunting you.

The last thing you had time on this cursed island was to play around with the TSAB and their justice.

>[2/3]

>>30396727
>[3/3]

You hated the idea of just turning yourself into the TSAB, if you had to do that you would prefer to turn yourself to Su-chan, but you wanted even less to waste time fighting this enforcer.

Maybe you could negotiate, if she helped Isis and you… could you three manage to turn this whole mess around?

So what do you do?

>Try to get her to help you, offer her to talk with her.
>Surrender to her authority, on the condition that she helps you save Mr. Scrya and Isis?
>Those charges are false, and I have the right to resist an unlawful arrests by the government.
>Attack the enforcer, you have no time to waste.
>Break out and look for the twin machines, they should be getting ready to attack again?
>The other Eclipse Drivers, you must deal with those guys who call themselves the Grendels?

>>30396765
>>Try to get her to help you, offer her to talk with her.

Justice freak or not surely she has the ability to see how this is not the time or the place for this shit.

>>30396871
So what do you want to tell her to convince her?
>That there is someone hurt, and you need to save him.
>That here are these ancient machines running around and killing people.
>There is someone who wants to kidnap you, can she help you?
>I do not want to fight, so I do not mind turning myself in.

>>30397016

This woman, this woman, this woman.

She was the type you hated, the ones who spouted ideals and acted like that sort of thing could save people, but you knew the truth.

Words do not save people, only actions can.

“Just hear me!” It pains you to do say this, but right now it was not the time to get another enemy. “You talk all about justice this and justice that but what you are doing cannot be called true justice.

Right now there are injured who were attacked by a Lost Logia, the white and black machines I was fighting! They are hurting others and will not hesitate to kill. They even attacked Mr. Scrya and almost killed him! I am not the one who you need to fight right now and you know it, Ms. Knight.”

She should have, because when she entered this battle she had attacked the white machine, and saved you. Even now she was giving you an opportunity to plead your case.

If she knew enough… then…

why was she no saving others with that justice.

You are mad, mad at those machines, mad because this enforcer was talking about justice when people were getting hurt, and mad at yourself that was too weak to protect anything, “You want to cry justice, then come and help me handle this mess! Help me protect the weak!

True justice is helping those who are in need, to save them! To turn their despair into hope! So come, help me now!” Your blood was boiling in anger, righteous anger at the fact that these machines had attacked Mr. Scrya and killed the exploring theme.

The enforcer had stayed silent your whole speech, maybe she was really considering your words, you could only hope they reached her.

“Then… I will help you, but on the condition that afterwards we settle our score. Even if today you plead to fight for Justice; that does not erase the sins you carry! Silberkreuz, do you accept my terms?”

This was probably better than you had hoped... so what do you say.

>Sure, I will accept! Anything to save Isis and Mr. Scrya.
>Understood, I am glad that we could reach an understanding!
>No, I can’t accept your narrow justice!
>Yeah, thanks for helping me. Maybe I was wrong about the TSAB?

But maybe you had been wrong all this time… “Sure…. Thank you for helping me!” You smile at the enforcer, trying to convey your most honest feelings to this woman. Just as Su-chan and Vivio taught you.

Upon looking at your face the Enforcer turned to the side, mumbling something through her teeth, “That face… you... unfair.”

But whatever she was going to was cut short as she detected something, “DODGE!”

Magical white missiles spread across the dark cloudy sky as they streaked with hundreds of white trails to hunt you. You did not need to search at all to know who had attacked you and the enforcer!

It was the black machine, the gunnery weapon of the HOLMCROSS, Victoria CHARIOT! “Come Zero-boy, this is my carnival!”

Her white rifle had turned into twin battling guns, which cries [Fiesta de Metal Muerto] as she continues to fire more magic missiles at you and the enforcer.

You had forgotten to look for them, because of the enforcer, but they surely had not forgotten about you.
The enforcer raised her spear, it appeared that she was going to cast a spell, but did she have enough time?

You had no time, so you decide to:
>Protect the Enforcer, shield her with your body!

This time, you would trust in this woman, Mira Camrill.

“Oh soul of the slain, become lighting that punishes the wicked! Come spears of judgment!” Her voice was beautiful, in a way that only those who knew of the old Belkan customs could only understand.

This was true casting, the true use of the Ancient Belkan System!

[Tachyon Stahl Regen] Her device cried, as ten spears of lighting, of thunder that judged the wicked formed around her. They drank from the dark clouds, as they shot down towards their targets.

With just conviction they fell upon the magic bullets, each of the spears turned around striking several of the bullets as they crossed the black sky.

In mere seconds the sky that had been filled of white was now washed in blue lightning.

“Thanks for the save!” You can only appreciate the skill of this woman, you really doubted you would have been able to shoot all those attacks down.

“Do not worry, I won’t allow anything to happen to you, not until I judge you! Nevertheless, help me secure the area. We have 10 minutes until the Wolfram arrives, if we manage to hold until then we can expect the support of the Section 6.”

You can appreciate that information, if you managed to get away before those ten minutes past…

“Enforcer, go and take down the black machine, I will handle this shooter!” You had to trust this enforcer, and she had to trust you, that was the only way to do anything.

“Understood!” It surprised you that she accepted so suddenly, but then again there was no time. Her device intoned [Blitz Schritt] as she dissapered in a spark of electricity!

But now that left you with the oncomming attack!

You have no time for anything fancy, so you shoot your own version of the spell. “Divide Zero!” Instantly and with zero recoil, your own attack rushes to meet the enemy!

VL: 100%->110%

The two destructive beams meet each other head on, and even though yours was shot faster and was not at full power, it was still enough to overpower the fake.

The two beams explode, spreading smoke across the area! You fly towards where the beam came, as swing your sword, only to meet a boy wielding a divider just as yours. His clothing remind you of a regular street punk, but if he could manage to use a divider.

The attack is coming, a sword swing so fast that it looks almost as if it were light coming at you, but to you that beam of light is too slow!

You raise your shield, the buckler stopping the deadly strike from taking your head! In the same motion, you turn your sword, creating an opening and breaking away from the Grendel Boy!

More enemy reinforcements, maybe you could use some help, “Enforcer, where are you?” This was not the same as magical telepathy you were used to, but rather something similar to what Lily used to do.

[Arriving near the Black Machine, currently intercepting her attacks!] Near a faraway hill you could see how flashes of blue sparks meet magic missiles that meant Mira was approaching the Black Machine.

“Understood, you can’t die you hear me, stupid Enforcer! If you die there can’t be justice, so take care!” You did not like having to worry for this woman, but… you do not want her to die.

[There is no need for you to say that, idiot! If you can worry for me, worry for yourself!] You had not time for this idiot! With a mental snap you close the connection, and turn towards the two fellow drivers.

“Leader, I have failed, you. Please allow me to React to take care of the Zero!” The cute attacker from before had been the one to strike you, and now she was asking permission from the boy, who appeared to be the leader of the Grendels.

“Sure, we can’t hold back anymore, this replica can’t beat the original so lets go all out. Quinn, lets slice this idiot apart!” What, this lame guy is calling you an idiot!

Reacting probably means that she will shift her divider and take some upgraded form, just like your black knight armor, that was something you could not allow.

You move in to attack with your sword, however, “Sorry Zero-boy, but I won’t allow you to interfere!” The Grendel boy shoots Silver Hammers at your path, forcing you to use your shield while he held you under gunfire!

[React On! Divider VG4 Reacted! Gradion!] Her divider shifted, her katana becoming some sort of laser chainsaw gunblade and her school uniform somehow ripping apart as armor formed on her.

“Leader and Lolo both have praised my strength, I am the Grendel Family’s Special Attacker, Quinn Garland! Zero, I will kill you!” Her voice carried more emotion than you had felt before, but it was only hate, hate for you and your cursed powers!

You read that attack, while that girl is fast and strong, you are stronger! Your divider stops her chainsaw blade in its tracks with ease! You feel your sword vibrate as the ec particle blades on the girl’s weapon bite into your sword, but it is useless.

That sword will never hit you.

VL: 110->115%
Now for the counterattack! Gathering power into your hand, a black flame forms in your hands, these fingers burn with my feelings, they call for the thing called destruction! “Go, Darkness Finger!”

You hand breakers her protective armor as you strike her chest. Your dark fire burns this girl’s body as several explosions burst consecutively inside your hands! Then to finish it up, you take the opportunity to toss her down with a sword swing.

Quinn HP: 15->6/15

VL: 115->120%

That special attacker is failing down, you now take the opportunity to aim your sword, with a quick cast you probably could finish her easily!

“Noo, Quinn, damn you Zero! I won't let you kill my family! Divid-” The leader of the Grendels is aiming his divider replica at you, apparently charging some attack, but it was too slow, you could attack easily!

>Divide Zero! End her!
>Silver Hammer, Knock her down!
>Do not shoot, instead aim at the boy with the same sword as you.

There was no time to waste on these guys, you had to beat those machines; you had to kill them soon!

“Next time I am ending it, you hear me!” Your words are aimed at the punk boy, Kurt Grendel, you make sure he notices how you stop aiming at his family member before breaking away from the battle.

You fly at top speed towards the last place you had seen both Mira and the Black Machine, avoiding thus the last attack from the Grendel Leader, with some luck that kid will stop fighting you and let you fight those machines in peace.

You are near, you can feel the magical energy in the air, thick enough that it could kill unprotected humans and distort the world.
“Attacking: Come Zero-Boy! I have been waiting for you!” A narrow dodge to the back was all that saved you from a black sword slicing your head, as the White Machine made its presence known.

Its body was broken tubes broken and armor bending in ways it should not have. This was the damage caused by the power of the thunder fall spear casted by the Enforcer. You knew this because you had survived that power yourself!

“Continuing: I have been waiting for you pendejo, I won’t let you run away anymore! I will take you down and then take down those other infected pests that are with you!” The white machine raises it’s sword as it takes a stance, “Activate: Red Shift! ‘All I need is Kill’ rompe los Limites, Full Drive!”

Magic energy gathers, the thick power weights down on the atmosphere as the wings beging to blow furiously. The black sword turns red, as it begins to sing, [Oración Recibida, Amen! Viento rojo bendice este mundo impuro! Amen!]

Just as those words leave the sword, the white machine turns red. The red winds twist around the machine, forming a barrier that lifts it up and gives it strength.

Thus there is one thing you fell right now: death. With no words it prepares the sword as it rushes at you! The thing will swing at your chest, it does not bother to hide that fact, it will attack with all it has and has thrown away the concept of defense.

All it needs is to kill you! Nothing more.

Something is weird, you feel as if the white machine has completely changed. It has become faster and stronger!

A red mirage comes at you, swinging his sword at your chest! It is too fast, and in an instant it breaks your armor and gorges your stomach. You scream in pain as you try to swing for a counterattack.

>Tohma HP: 9->6/15

>VL: 120%-> 135%

But you are too slow! In the time it takes for you to swing your blade, the machine has already reappeared behind you, carried by the red wind!

“Continuing the assault: Die Zero Driver!” The white, no, the red machine stabs you in the back with its red sword, piercing your lungs in a swift maneuver!

>Tohma HP: 6->2/15

>VL: 135%-150% Dice Bonus +3

You feel your chest burn in pain, but you concentrate. You can’t die here, not now! So when the machine comes for a third swing, you move beforehand.

You burn all you have, calling upon the power of the poison in your blood. It hurts to move like that, but somehow you stop the red machine in its tracks!

“Confusion: How did you!” You need to press your advantage but… you can’t.

It hurts too much…

“No!” You won’t accept, not like last time, when you had attacked the TSAB Marines and almost killed the Enforcer. You had only stopped that time because you had not wanted to murder that woman.

That was something that had been born from the poison in your blood, the need to kill, the innate desire to kill others.

You hated it.

So you won’t lose control, not now. You will not become a monster so easily!

But that leaves you will that red machine. You had no power to stop it, no strength to oppose it.

The only thing that could save you was a miracle!

So with a sweet voice a miracle came!

“Zero Break!” A silver explosion blew the red machine mercilessly, not even giving it the chance to defend.

This merciless power was the Zero-Effect the power born of the union of you and that girl, Lily.

That was the one who now stood before you, clad in a white barrier jacket. Her face was angry, angry at the pain you had suffered, angry at the pain she had caused you.

She had been the girl who you had saved, the one who hated herself and thought she could only bring despair to this world.

Now she was the girl that saved you, who had something to love and had become someone that could bring at least you hope.

Lily…

“Tohma, I have come for you.” The girl smiled, such a beautiful smile.

There was no way they could call this girl a flower of destruction, she was a truly…

a flower of hope!

>COMMENCING DIRECT CONNECTION
>LINKAGE SYSTEM ACTIVATED

Lily is crying… and this time you are not sure why…

“Tohma… I am sorry, because of me you suffered a cruel fate!” The word between you two is died in silver, a world where only you and this girl could only exist. “When you saved me, I gave you that silver ring, and thus I infected you with the Eclipse Virus.” She takes your right hand into hers, causing the twin silver rings on each of your writs to meet.

You want to tell her it was not her fault, that with the power she had given you, now you could do more to help others.
But no words came from your mouth.

“Then, afterwards, I tried to run away from my duty. I tried to seal the powers I gave you and I just… I just wanted to forget. To forget that lab and the red, I just wanted to be with you, the one who saved me.”

Lily smiles at you, even while she continues to cry.

“But you needed those powers, in the church, when you were kidnapped for six weeks, and even now in this island. I always believed that these powers could only hurt others; that they could only destroy.”

“But with you, I think that you can turn this cursed power into something that saves others!” Lily pulls you in, bringing your tired body to rest on hers.

“Tohma, I now understand my purpose. I do wait for someone to save me… what I waited was for a Driver, my holder for me- a Strosek- the control plug of the Gospel of the Silver Cross!

So I promise you, I won’t leave you alone, I won’t let you become a mindless killer nor I will let you suffer.

Just this once, Tohma. I will save you!”

Lily has stopped crying, as she takes your face into her hands, and forces you to meet her eyes.

“Reactor Engage!” This is a contract, a promise between this girl and you- thus it can be sealed only one way.

With a kiss.

Roll d100 for Engage!

The reactor called the Gospel of the Silver Cross was a weapon management system that served to protect its owner- the Eclipse Driver!

However the Driver alone was not enough to control the powers of the tome. What it needed was a combined control unit- the engage of a Driver along a Reactor Plug.

This is the true start of your journey, the true meeting between you and Lily. This is the union of an Eclipse Driver and a Reactor Plug that gives birth to the true power of the Gospel of the Silver Cross!

You feel like you wake from a feverish dream, but you feel yourself changed, no longer tired and the effects of the virus have lessened.
Everything seems fine, but where was Lily?

>Tohma, do not stop, we are still in the middle of a fight!

That voice, it came from within you. Lily’s voice came from within you!

>Tohma this is normal, I am engaged to you, similar to the union devices the Belkans used, now I am serving as a control terminal to help you manage the Gospel of the Silver Cross!

You have many things you want to ask Lily, but there is no time for that! The red machine has recovered from the stunning blow Lily gave it!

“Anger Increasing: You… that girl did something to you, you have changed Zero Driver! Never the less, I will defeat you right here!”

The Red machines comes to attack you!
>Attack him first! Crimson Sword!
>Shoot him and keep away from its attacks.

This was a waiting game, you just had to waste time until the TSAB arrived! So preparing your gunblade you prepare to shoot!

“Silver Stars- Skydance Shift!” Lily’s voice joins your, as the two of you cast a EC skill. Pages from the book of the silver cross appear and float around you, before each of them charges energy and shoot spheres of silver particles at the enemy!”

“You!!! Zero Driver!” The red machine did not stop, slamming head on onto each of your silver stars as it tried to reach you!

WM HP: 22->17/40

However mere stubbornness was not enough, and soon the damage caught up to it, even though it shined red, it did not had enough power to stop the continues shots you had aimed at it.

But that was not all!

There were still spheres remaining floating loosely around the Red Machine, the formed a wall that trapped the red machine and surrounded it with mines that would detonate at touch!

It did not matter if this thing was faster than you, if you did not give it any space to move, then all the speed in the world would not mater!

“Intoning: You Zero Driver, do not thing this will be enough to stop me!” The red machine was mad, but it probably understood, if it tried to attack rashly, then it would be wide open to a counterattack by you!

You have the red machine trapped, but it will only last for a few more moments… you decide to:

>Get back to those Grendels, now you can beat some info out of them.
>Rush to the Black Machine!, Help Mira!
>Go find Isis, where is she!
>Talk to the Red Machine..?
>Shoot the red machine.

The minefield will buy you some time, the white machine will have to be careful destroying your aerial mines, least it wants all of the blowing in its face!

“Realization: No toques a mi hermanan, pendejo!” You do not really understand what the red machine is saying, but you no longer pay it any attention, you have to find Mira and the Black Machine!

>Miss. Camrill, you met her already Tohma?

You promise to tell Lily everything later and just rush at Mira’s position! The red machine did not come back to fight again nor those Grendels try to pick a fight against you, maybe you were having some luck!
[Carnaval de la Destrucción!]

… or not. In an instant the airfield was saturated with countless magic shots, all shooting towards the cloudy sky and painting it white!

It takes a diving maneuver on your part, which left you on ground level, to avoid those attacks, but now you can’t see Mira or the Black Machine.

[Tachyon Stahl Regen] That was Mira’s device which you heard over the forest somewhere, and soon afterwards you saw thunder spears being summoned in the sky!

It looks like Mira is somewhere nearby, you would just have to fly to see her!

“Zero Driver!” But it appears that someone will not leave you alone, rushing towards you is that red machine, Ricardo JOKER, brandishing its red sword, and it seeks to end your life!
