"now you will be holding mock battles against the nines, to see if these new units are as good as the doctor praises them to be of course you will be granted leeway as they are entirely different from anything you have ever piloted before" hachi said

"when will the battle take place" ichigo asked

"in two hours so suit up your old suits have been replaced with the new ones in the changing room, and good luck" nana said the group nodded and went to the changing room the moment i saw the suit i nearly facepalmed these were EVA plug suits mine was a blade and dark blue the only real difference is it had a helmet which was new

after changing i found my partner her suit was a bit different in that she was on heels i could tell since she was taller in the suit other then that it was plugsuit her suits colors were the inverse of mine she also had and was wearing a helmet

we walked out to the catwalk that led to the delphinium and boy did it change it was still unmistakable delphinium however

"wow" i said she nodded

"it's so much different" she agreed the face plate opened and we climbed inside to see the cockpit was a cross of the para-mail control unit towards the front and the TSF control unit at the back with a slot in the center of the chair that i assumed was for the livlaster if i could use it i was curious though if that was standard on all of the units the old man was making or if it was for the truth of osiris

"do you want to be in the front or at the back" i asked she walked over to the front module

"i've always been at the front, no point in changing now she said as she mounted up her feet finding the footpegs and pressing the pedals they lead to experimentally as her hands gripped the joysticks i shrugged and took the chair at the back and sat down typing in commands on the side panels as my feet found their own pedals sliding them under the bars that hold them in place

"ready" i asked she nodded as the machine came online

"now there several systems the doctor has ordered you review before you launch do so now" hachi ordered i pressed a button on my right panel and holographic screens appeared on either side of me that i moved to the front same thing happened with ichigo and we began to review the systems

ichigo was in awe i was less so these units seriously were prototypes these systems were to be placed on the final products such as the trans-am system and the doctors heavily modified coupling system which is why

these units were no longer bio-machines they were pure machines and because of that no longer required the pilots to be linked together to use the things i was actually kinda sad i wouldn't really get to use this thing for very long before it was replaced oh well i'll have fun while it lasts

"wow" ichigo said

"i know" i agreed after memorizing the systems we pushed the holograph panels to the side

"trigger you have" she said as she pulled the clutch and the pedals of her controls switching control over to me

"trigger i have" i said pulling both the triggers of my controls and taking control

"all units report ready releasing docking clamps" hachi said as the restraints holding the five machines released and let us take our first steps

"wow that old man really outdone himself with these controls" i said she nodded she liked this more too previously she had to deal with being controlled by goro and less so by mikazuki but now she had equal control as him and she loved the feeling

"head out the nines are waiting" nana said

"YES MA'AM" came the reply from the squad
