Chapter 5: The Avatar of Destruction

Zero Two and Hiro screamed as they thrusted the Javelin of Strelitzia through the head of a 6-limbed category 4 kaiju before pulling it free and slitting the throat of a blade-headed category 3. Zero Two was panicking, she'd just seen her brother be rammed by a Klaxosaur after exhausting all weapons, they needed their-

All of a sudden, she was shaken to her core as a deep gut-wrenching pain struck her, one she had never felt before. She looked behind her as tears flooded her eyes at Hiro grasping his chest and taking deep gasping breaths before he looked her in the eyes. He felt it through their neural link too.
She quickly slammed her hand on the radio
"Strelitzia to Azure Defiant, do you copy?"
Nothing but static, she tried again
"STRELITZIA TO AZURE DEFIANT, DO YOU COPY!?"
Again, nothing...
"AZURE DEFIANT! PLEASE RESPOND!"

After a few moments, finally she received a reply, but it wasn't (Y/N). It was a female voice crying-no...not crying. A deep helpless sob. Hiro's eyes widened as he recognized the voice,
"Ichigo..." he muttered.
"I-Ichigo to Strelitzia...to all units...we've been hit. Azure's down. (Y/N)...
Silence
"(Y/N)...didn't make it"

Goro and Naomi's eyes widened as the latter stifled a gasp and the former's eyes widened as he thought to himself
'(Y/N) is gone? That can't be true'

'This has to be some sick joke she's pulling'
Zorome tried to reason as Miku began to quietly sob to herself. Neither of them would admit it, but they'd begun to look up to (Y/N) in the following weeks he was transferred here...

They all did...
'But he's one of the best pilots humanity's got...he can't be'
Kokoro failed to convince herself as Futoshi tried and failed to comfort them both. He wasn't just a brother to Zero Two, he'd become a brother to all of them

"N-no"
Ikuno stifled a gasp and tears as Mitsuru flew into a rage and began to fire their Vortex Cannon wildly with tears in his eyes too

"I say again...Fifty-Four...(Y/N) is gone"

Strelitzia collapsed to her knees as Zero Two released the controls, crying uncontrollably. She leaned back and released an ear-piercing, gut-wrenching scream of pain and rage, her eyes glowing a deep red

He felt burning everywhere, all over his body. Like acid on his flesh
(Y/N) came to, he was still alive. As he thrashed for a moment in the liquid, it all came back to him. The battle, the Klaxosaur, being eaten, everything... He looked around and his gut sank, everywhere around him was slimy blue viscous liquid. He'd seen it enough before to know what it was, Kaiju Blue. He looked up and saw dozens of kaiju in some kind of fleshy cocoon, but they weren't like the ones he fought. They were fleshy and fragile like a kind of protoform
He then realized where he was, the belly of the beast.
The Carrier Classes both make and transport mass amounts of kaiju. The Kaiju aren't born, They're built like the Klaxosaurs...then whose building both?

Suddenly he let out a piercing scream as his head began to pound. His eyes and spikes flared and iridescent blue as everything around him went blurry and all the sounds went muffled. He heard a voice in his head but it was odd. It was speaking in a matter he'd never heard before, one he could barely understand, like that of a higher being, not only that but it was several voices speaking all at once.

As quickly as it came...the voice, the pain, and the feeling were all gone. Leaving (Y/N) with only confusion, dread, shame...and rage
He slammed his fist against the surface of the blood as his body burned from the acidic factor.
'Why am I so useless?' He thought to himself, 'Why can't I save anyone?'
