Codename: Bunny

20: Hertz

As Alan return to his home, he then send a drone that he build by himself to the location. He put his phone to his computer and connect it to his phone so he can investigate it better. Alan's urge to kill Chain can be seen by his effort. After a while, his drone finally arrive to the location. Alan take a deep observation to his location. "Looks like a fucking DVD stores. But what kind of DVD? There's VHS too." Mumbled him. He then saw a man, walking straight to the store and say something to the store owner. The store owner then let him go into the basement. "What the fuck? How did he? What did he say until he get to get in there?" Then, Alan started to figure out on how can he find a way to get into the basement. "Alright, think Alan. How to get in there?" Mumbled him again. "Can't use Bunny, he's too exposed. I need to make something else. Need to be like a ghost. Need something like Bunny." Said him to himself. As he looks at his old exoskeleton he use to fought Kobi, he got an idea.

"Another Exoskeleton should be good! But it needs to be better than before. And I need a better mask. Lightweight but sturdy Exo's. That's it!! I'll made a new Exo's! And a new mask."

With the idea he has, he continue his Idea by making a new Exo's. Alan rip apart some of his Exo's so that he can adjust it to smaller size, and add more fibre in it to increase it's power. He took so much time to adjust it. The Exo is almost finished, but not the mask. His mask has not been untouched at all. Although the blueprint is ready, there's still much work for Alan to do. As time is already pass, night is closing the sunlight. Suddenly, Alan's doorbell is ringing. Alan heard it, he rushed to his door while he locked his garage so that no one can get in. What a surprise, it's actually Emily. Alan open the door as Emily stop ringing the bell. "Hey Al, I just want check on you. I bring you a beer if you want." Said her. Alan welcome her into his house. "What makes you come here Em? I thought you mad at me?" Asked Alan.

"I'm just checking on you. That's all. After all, your stupid ass brain can't even look after yourself. And yes, I come alone."

"Well, this stupid ass brain's person still alive though. You can't change that facts."

"Whatever dickhead. You wanna drink or not?"

"Gimme one. I'll get sober if you want."

As both of them sit on the couch. They drink the beers as both of them started to talk.

"So, it's been 5 years, since we said goodbye to each other. Never thought that we gonna see each other again."

"Yeah Al, we meet again. You kinda look different with all that abs and muscles. Well, at least you changed. And, you kind of nice to us, especially Harold. It's pretty nice to see you and him het along.

"Well, I just changed I guess, although everything is kind of weird now. With you get to study in Macro-Band University. Damn, time does fucking fly fast."

"Well since you said that Al, I have something to tell you. I actually fall in love with someone."

"Ooooo, is it someone I know or?"

"You know him, you just need to guess who he is."

"Is it..... Carl?"

"You are the funniest shithead I've ever met, MUAHAHAHAHAHA!!! Carl is in LGBTQ Community, dipshit. I once saw him had sex with Aiden from the next class, shit was 2 years ago."

"No fucking way! HAHAHAHAHAHA! I missed the whole show now."

"You sure did dipshit! Guess it again. Imma give you a clue this time. He is in the same row of us."

"Is it, James?

"Nope, he is so obsessed with Lily. Now I heard he and Lily just went to Ohio to start a brand new life. It's fucking weird though since both of them didn't get married after all."

"Well, I guess I lose your questions huh?"

"Imma give you on last chance. This time, make it count. The clue is simple. He sit next to you."

"Is he, Roman?"

As Emily been quiet, and her face turns as red as tomato, Alan realised that Emily actually is in love with Roman. She is too shy to say the truth. "You love Roman? Roman De Maria? You love him?" Asked Alan. As Emily just nod her head as it means as yes. "Damn, how long have you feel this bout him?" Asked Alan again.

"Around 4 years already."

"You didn't even tell the truth? You feelings to him? All these 4 years?"

"I'm scared okay, he is so damn nice to me. I'm afraid the he will ghost me if I tell him the truth. I don't want to lose hi at all."

"Damn Em, is it that much you love him? With all of your heart?"

"With all of my heart Alan. With all of my heart."

As Emily eyes start to become glassy again, Alan decided to change the game. "Hey, how about we play games that Barbara and I used to play all the time. We called it as "What SuperPowers we wants to have". If you didn't give any good reasons, you lose." Said Alan. "So, as long as we pick our superpower, we have to state our reasons too?" Asked Emily. Alan just nod yes. Emily then think about her superpower. She took her time, then she decide to pick her power. "Super-Duper Hearing I guess." Said her.

"Why you want that superpower?"

"I guess I want to hear Roman's whispers. I just want to know if he love me too or otherwise. That's all."

As she said that, Alan got an idea to finish his suit. "Super-Duper Hearing huh? That's a great power." Said him, as he wrote down the superpower Emily wants. "How bout you Alan? What superpower you want?" Asked Emily.

"I guess, I want Sharpshooter power."

"Why you want that super power?"

"I just don't want to miss any shot. If I wanna be a superhero, I don't want to miss my shot like I used to do. That's why I want to have Sharpshooter power."

"That's sounds nice, never thought that you can be this sweet."

"It ain't sweet at all. Kinda damned in my opinion."

"Well you're a dead man! HAHAHAHA!!!"

As both of them laugh, Emily eyes start to feel drowsy. Her head felt so heavy. She is completely drunk. As she lay down for a while, Alan went to his room, take a sheet and cover Emily with it as he doesn't want her to be cold. "I never thought you will feel that way. Loving Roman? Damn... I guess I have to let you go Em. I want you to be happy." Mumbled Alan lowly, as he doesn't want her to hear it. Still, he pat her head, as he look at her with all feelings. He then kiss her forehead, as he said "I loved you Emily. With all of my heart. Never a day I forgot about you. If you love Roman, I will let you go. I want it to happen, if you happy about it.". He then went into his garage back, as he took his notes about Emily's superpower. He then modified his mask with detachable microphone so that any sounds can be transmitted on the ear side. Hours has passed, he finally finished his mask. Only thing left is test. He decided to put the microphone on his phone. As his phone play a music, the sound is completely transmitted into his mask speakers.

Alan feel proud, as his invention is working. The only thing to do is kill Chain Bowjack. "Number 10 is next. I will kill him. Whatever your trick is, I wont be fooled by it." Said him. As his new suit, Codename: Hertz is finished, he took his chance to rest for a while, before tomorrow.
