~Aiko Takeshi - The Suite ~ (#Wattys2015)

=CHAPTER 5= Gone To Meet "It's" Maker

It only took 2 days to change my entire life, I didn't ask for this, I only wanted to go hunting to see what my dad and brothers were doing every day, I search my self for answers, I started to replay everything that I've witnessed and experience in my mind, this was really happening I thought.

I woke up to a burning sensation around my wrist and was facing a sky full of stars, and ... I was somehow moving, then realized there was water all around me, "oh" I remember now, I was falling from a cliff, but now looking around there was no cliff insight. What happened? did I fall unconscious during freefall?, where is the hammer wielding suite?, am i dead?, " WHERE THE HELL AM I?", fully realizing the possibility of the danger I was presumable in, I couldn't swim but my suite was floating, so i got comfort knowing i wouldn't sink, I took notice of my hands as they were now oddly shaped, they were webbed, so that means my legs and feet might also be webbed, and indeed they were!

I always thought about how cool this suite was the more i saw what it was capable of, I'm impressed so far even though i still don't know how to go invisible, or what the 3 buttons on my left wrist are for, all of this was cool, but my mind won't allow me to focus on that, with all my family and my best friend still missing, I will find them if its the last thing i do, but i was in a situation myself, it was dark, I don't know how far i was from land, the moon was out bright and all i could see was sea, not to mention, my vitals were low, 5%, and i don't want to think of what might happen if i run out, so i started swimming in high hopes of making land soon, it could be minutes or hours possibly a day, no, i don't think i have day.

I paddled the best way i thought i could, and after about ten minutes i saw a portion of screen jitter for a few seconds at a time and i didn't like it, i thought my suite was losing power and i don't have a clue where i was in the ocean, I cant tell how long i was out, or how far i may have drifted.

The Screen jittered again and i could make out a face onscreen and a voice but the connection was bad, very bad, i stopped swimming to focus on the mystery onscreen, it went blank again, and didn't jitter for another minute, i waited for a few more minutes, but nothing happened so i started to swim once more, and the screen immediately lit up again , "ARE YOU THERE AGENT 1?!, AGENT WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN?, "NIGHTSHADE ARE YOU THERE?!", I was prompted to answer many times, but i wasn't sure, it could be the military trying to zero in on my location, this could all be a trick, so i kept my cool and didn't reply, ... .... 'WHO ARE YOU?!"," HOW DID YOU GET THIS SUITE AND WHERE IS AGENT NIGHSHADE?", i looked on as if i wasn't hearing him, "I CAN SEE YOU YOU KNOW!, IF YOU FAIL TO COOPERATE THERE WILL BE CONSEQUENCES!" he yelled, but i didn't plan on saying a word.

OK, " HOW ABOUT IF I ACTIVATE THE BOMB THAT'S EMBEDDED IN YOUR SUITE?!, "ITS MY FAIL SAFE AGAINST INTRUDERS LIKE YOURSELF!, He must be bluffing i thought, then on the other hand i don't know much about this suite, but he did say he planted a bomb in it?, then that means that he could possibly have some connection with the suite, but still i was willing to take no chances, so I kept silent looking at the screen, then it suddenly vanished, large numbers popped up on my screen!, and the words "self-destruct sequence enabled" appeared above it,

10, 9, 8, "OH SHIT" I flinched, he wasn't bluffing, 7, 6, "ok, hey where are you i yelled" ill talk!, it was a risk i was willing to take, ... there was no reply, I started to panic hard, I tried swimming but my body would not move a inch, i could think it, but my body just wouldn't do it!, I tried yelling again but no sound came out!, at this point the only thing that was movable were my eyes, its like i was shutting down with the suite, what did i get myself into!, 5, 4, 3, 2, then it stopped, and the previous screen popped back up, ... ... "I SHOULD BELEIVE WE ARE ON THE SAME TERMS NOW?" he said, "yes, yes, i will tell you how i got this suite i yapped in fear, " OK, FOLLOW THE COORDINATES ON YOUR SCREEN", he advised, I felt i had no choice in the matter, and had to comply.

A Transparent diagram popped up with a blinking dot, then he said "FOLLOW THE MAP, ITS A 2 HOUR DISTANCE BETWEEN US, BUT YOU WILL MAKE IT, WE WILL TALK WHEN YOU GET HERE AND WHY ARE YOUR VITALS SO LOW!?, * I told him its a long story.

I hit a sand bank after what appeared to be a whole night of swimming, i came upon a beach with 2% of energy left, on average it would take a man half day to swim the distance i just did, I looked around and all i could see was trees and bush,I watched on as the suite around my hands and feet pull back to the original shape, so cool, I thought, but now to find the man on screen, I walked a few meters and realized I was now standing ontop of the destined location, And at that moment my screen came alive again, and this time he stated that they would have to take me inside restrained and without any visuals, hmm given everything i leant so far they must be the military I thought, its now or never i guess, maybe my family was inside ok and unharmed, and its not like i could run away, and even if i wanted to i still have the number 2 from the countdown in the corner of my screen, its a harsh reminder that i had to comply, so i know he could activate it the second i ran, and not to mention i was really tired and hungry, ... ... so with high hopes, i agreed.

My hands were bounded, and my screen was shut off,then i was led throughout a series of twist and turns and what felt like an elevator, then it got quieter and quieter as we walked, i heard a door open then i was placed to sit and was immediately asked a ton of questions.

After about a half hour of interrogation, me and my interrogator both had basic knowledge on some aspects, and there was a mutual level of trust, so they unbound my hands, and my screen was now back online, I could now see the person who was riding me with questions, it was a female, and she was pretty, i looked around and i could see that i was in a lab of some sorts with rock walls, possibly this could be a cave i thought as i looked around, my eyes came to rest on this guy in a long black coat, he had long white hair and wore a edgy grin, he had four men around him in strong looking body armor and guns, but they weren't suits from what i could tell.

" WELCOME AIKO" he had a powerful bass voice, he approached me and offered too show me how to retract the head area of my suit and get me some food, I agreed, he said all you have to do is think it ... ..... that's it? i asked and looked on in disbelief, "yes, most of your suite will react to body movements while some parts are automatic, but in this case the head area of your suite is optional, "OK, that much i had noticed since i woke up in the suite, " but the rest of the suite is embedded into your skin and spinal cord, so the only way it comes of is when your dead, he said chuckling, ... Of course I was shocked when he said that, .. so what happened to my clothes?, i asked him, ... i was wearing clothes when it came onto me, so am i still wearing them? " Oh no, he said, the suite vaporized it on impact, this is your clothes now, .. .. i scratched my head wondering if anything could possibly be as he was telling me, ... he also explained that the suite is now one with all systems in my body, I wouldn't have to pee or take a shit if I didn't want to he said, all excretions would be broken down and released as energy for the suite, but that's if i wanted to, and that is why all your bodily functions slow down upon wearing it, as the suite will utilize energy from nutrients and also the waste, its a win win he chuckled.

I'm sorry to hear about your family Aiko, and also Agent Nightshade, he stepped towards a big screen hooked to the wall, there were wires and computers everywhere, we have a lot to discuss, but lets start on the respectable note he said as he sat down and turned towards me, My name is "Kin Hohaku" and I am the creator of your X1A1 Suite.
