Project R : The soldiers of chaos

Chapter 6 : The city of nostalgia

Translated by: Chili

And while life continued on Emerald Town, in another part of the vast ocean, the imposing Blade was standing by over what it looked like a big dark submarine, which was standing out of the water with a deck which read the words "Dark Noah" written on it.

The sunset was illuminating the scene dimly, while a strong breeze was shaking the ears and the fur of the menacing mercenary. Apparently, the guy was waiting for a long time the arrival of someone. Suddenly, a yacht appeared out of the distance and was getting close slowly to the platform where Blade was standing by. Once in position, the yacht deployed a ramp so the passengers could came out.

Blade was observing the scene steadily, while remaining still. In that moment, a group of men in suit began descending from the ramp, which were being accompanied by bodyguards armed with rifles.

In total there were nine men in suits. Six men and three women of middle age. From these men a robust dark skinned with an intense look pig was standing out, who was wearing a black tuxedo and a white scarf. This dark character didn't seemed to be afraid of Blade, since it was the only member who got close to speak with him.

Mr. Pig (looking at Blade): So? Where is it?

Blade responded to the pig with a threating look, and without saying anything just pointed the road to the elevator which will lead them to the inside of the submarine.

Mr. Pig: Heh... atta boy.

Reluctantly, Blade escorted the men in suit to the location where an important business meeting was about to be held.

Along the way, the men in suit were constantly watching their backs, since the interior of the submarine was as big as it was dark. There were moving parts all around and light was scarce. Besides, the crew was looking as sinister as Blade himself.

Mrs. Crane (worried): I wonder if it was a good idea to come here.

Mr. Mole (scared): Business mean business, woman.

The mole man looked up and saw Slash squatting over some pipes above them. The mercenary was following them with her eyes while smiling ominously.

Mr. Mole (looking at Slash with fear): Yeah... business mean business.

Finally, they all arrived at a poorly illuminated room, which had a big round table in its center and many screens all around. Besides, the gear and the saw emblem, the Cyberpunks symbol, was painted all over the walls as if it were a den of evildoers.

Mr. Pig (looking around): Hm...

Once everyone was inside, Blade stood near the door to monitor them. It is then, when a hoarse and high pitch voice began to be heard from the other end of the room.

??? (in the shadows): Sorry for the mess. It's hard to find good servitude these days. Hehehe... *throat clearing*

The men in suit then directed their gaze over to the source of the voice. This one came from a dark figure that was hiding in the shadows of the room. The only visible part of this man was his bionic eye on the right side of his face, and whose pupil glowed with an intense red color.

??? (in the shadows): Welcome to my flagship. I hope your trip was... pleasant. *throat clearing*

Mr. Pig (serious): We finally meet, Dr. Havoc.

In that moment, the mysterious villain decided to bust out of the shadows. It was an old and one-eyed owl, with a reddish battered plumage, who was also seated on an egg shaped floating chair.
