Neutron Nova Beginnings

[ganondorf2]

Before I begin, there are some things about our story that will take into account. It with switching between one person to another. Myself...and my friend at most points. This is our story...

Prelude

"You know what to do right?" a young man asked an officer, unseen in the shadows, "When the day comes, you must see to this plan to work. Others will go after you for this, granted, but it needs to be done. I've done most of my part now it's your turn"

"Of course," the man said holding a vial in hand, with a glowing blue chemical inside it, "I'll see to this, there is only one thing, however."

"Yes?"

"It's about my daughter. I told her not to use her abilities too much."

"I understand but the world will be in danger in time," the man walks over showing himself in the light before continuing, "We'll need her to do the first step in the plan. Whatever it takes, I don't want everything to be destroyed or cloaked in darkness as I have seen in the future. You want her to live her life correct?"



The officer nods to this, and says, "I see now. I'll do this old friend. I pray it will work."

"It will in time, Karson. It will in time."

[The Melee Master]

Awesome! Keep up the good work!

[ganondorf2]

thx, but I'm struggling with a title. You got anything?

[The Melee Master]

I don't even know what this story is about yet. Is it your main's backstory? Whether it is or isn't, I might not be able to think of a title right away. Sorry.

Chapter 1

September 29, 1998

Deep within a lab hidden within Racoon City, a mutated human walks over to a female scientist and is coming closer as she walks back.

"William! Don't you recognize me!? I'm your wife, Annette!"

It stops, a wedding ring shining on its left hand. It was clear this being, was the husband before this change. It tilts its head to this, confused by what she said. The woman looks at the fused head that is part of its chest. Nothing came from it much to her sorrow.

She places bullets in her gun saying, "William, I'm sorry." She takes aim at him and continued, "But I've got to put an end to G."

Upon seeing the gun, he charges at her, one clawed arm ready to swipe, and one shot was soon fired.

Moments later, two people ran in. The man of that team alerted his partner before running to the now critically injured woman saying, "G is...growing even stronger. If you don't stop this..." Just before she passed away, she managed to explain the cure to someone before they left.

Time passes and a small being walks in then over to the body placing its glove on her wound. "You and your husband shouldn't have fooled around with something like that..." it said, then placed its hand on the side of its head, "I found her...a little late sadly. She's gone."



"Try and read her mind. She must know where it is," a voice on the other line said.

It does so and says, "I just got a little bit before it went silent."

"Good, now hurry. The real G must not fall in the wrong hands ever again!"

"Yes sir."

Wings came out of its back and then flew off, leaving a grey feather behind.

-------------------------------

A trooper walks into an office area and starts searching for something, the boss watching over saying, "Hurry up! I don't want this project to fail. Once I get my hands on the ancient virus, I will make sure all will bow down to my might!"

"Yes sir," the trooper said.

As the man watches he thinks, "This time, Aeon, you will lose this battle and the war. There will be no one to stop me. Dragon's will reign over...I will rule."



Shots are soon fired at something, making the man turn to see the small being had stabbed the shooter in the chest before pulling the weapon back out.

"Not again. Haven't you learned yet?" the man asked, "Or do I need to clip those wings to make to stay down?"

"Not a chance. I'll stop you in any way I can! And that's a promise, Maxwell!"

[The Melee Master]

Maxwell, huh? Oohh, I've a feeling this is gonna be good! Nice job!

[ganondorf2]

Chapter 2

"Continue to look!" the man said to his troops, "I'll handle him."

They nod and go back to work as a sword is pulled out of his back, hidden in his jacket.

"You thought I wasn't ready...didn't you? Come at me!

The being flies in fast and clashes with Maxwell's sword with the lance it carried. Every swing of the weapons, getting parried out of the way. Some of the troops had to get out of the way as they fought at points while working. As the fight dragged on, the being's weapon was slashed out of its hands and the shield it had was kicked away, so fast it was hard to see. Seeing the creature defenseless the man taunts, "I told you, don't get in my way. So much for being called the strongest in the galaxy. Now you're no longer worthy of this."

The man was about to finish the job, when someone fired at Maxwell's hand, not only to make him drop the blade but be unable to use it as well as it was disabled, causing Maxwell to cry out in pain. The being looks and spots an officer aiming at where the man's hand was.

"Karson!" the being shouted at the officer.

"Get down!" he yells.

"Grah! Fire at him!" the boss shouts at his troops while holding his hand, trying to stop the bleeding.

The being ducks as the officer aims at them. As each shot was fired, Karson rolls behind cover, back to the wall.

"He's just wasting time! Find that virus!" Maxwell orders.

"You mean this one?" Karson asked behind the cover and puts one hand out with a vial, glowing pink at points before it vanishes again.

"What?!" the boss said in shock.

"You want it? Come and get it, old man!" he taunts.

Troops ran in to give chase and Maxwell gets up, grabs his sword, and was about to kill the being, but it had disappeared in the chaos making him say, "If it isn't one thing it's another! They better bring him to me dead or alive. Dead would be most grateful."

----------------------------------------

The being, his weapons now back in its hands, flew around looking for the officer.

"He better not be dead. I'm going to get it if this is the case."

After many minutes, it hears a short whistle, and Karson was seen, unharmed, waving him down. It comes down and notices all the troops, are knocked out.

"Must you do this?" it asked.

"Galactic...haven't you learned? I don't do that."

It sighs to this and asked, "Did you find the virus?"

"Make it plural, I got many different kinds for the project," he said.

"Good. Now we just got to get out of here. If he's right, Raccoon City will be nothing but a crater!"

"Fair enough. I need to get out of here anyway," he said and ran off, Galactic flying behind.

"What ones did you get anyway?"

"Hard to list them all, but the main ones are there, don't worry."

"I still am."

"Why?" Karson asked, looking at him for a moment.

"This whole thing...what does he mean that there's going to be more danger in the future? What could it be?"

"The future holds many things we can't see. Humans can't anyway. We never think about our actions that might affect our future. Good and bad we have been given choice. Our choices can make or break on if we have a future or not."

"You have an answer to everything don't you?" Galactic teases.

"Not really, but it makes you think doesn't it?"

"True. I just hope our choice isn't going to become a bad one."

"Sadly, I have to agree. I have high hopes, however."

They manage to get out of the lab, via the railway...and take a breather.

"How much more before this is complete?" Karson asked.

"I wish I knew. I know you have a piece of this giant puzzle."

"I do, but I gave it back to Aeon for the time being until this virus thing is sorted."

"Smart move on your end."

The sound of an explosion was soon heard making Galactic say, "Is the missile already here?"

"No...it's Maxwell!"

Giant wings were seen in the distance, ready for take-off.

"We got to get out of here!"

"Right on time," a voice was heard.

Both men turned and saw the man, cloaked in white.

"Aren't you a sight for sore eyes," Karson said and watched as the beast, turning to be a massive demonic dragon, "Though I've love to chat with you, Aeon, this is a bad time."



"Curse you!!" Maxwell shouts and flies at the trio.

Aeon taps a clock-like weapon on the ground and they vanish, the dragon missing its target.

"You can't escape me forever! I will get my time! My rule will come and all will be under my control!"

[ganondorf2]

Chapter 3

November 21, 1998

"It is done," Aeon spoke and gave the large vial to Karson.

"That didn't take long," he said taking it.

"I fear your life is on the line...as well as hers."

"I know this," he said looking at it, "I'll let her know about this."

"Here," Aeon then gives a piece of paper, "This is also needed."

He looks at it then has a look of shock saying, "I can't have her do that. She's scared of him!"

"I know this...but I'm sure she'll understand in time. Please."

Karson looks at the paper again and sighs, before asking, "Anything else?"

"Nothing else. I'll be handling the rest."

"Very well."

Aeon vanishes a moment later and Karson walks back with heavy weight on his shoulders. Would she understand this? Will she get mad? She should know that this old man won't be around forever. He looks at the vial, glowing in different colours...from blue, to pink, to purple and back, thinking, "I better do the right thing then." He walks back in his house then placed the vail as well as the note in the case, and writes one of his own before placing it in. He closes said case, then sat down and takes deep breath as he waited for her only daughter to come back from school.

Once he hears the brakes of the bus and thinks, "It's time..."

------------------------------------------

"You'll what?" the girl asked, crying, "No! Dad, I don't want to lose you!"

"I figured I would get that reaction...You must understand this is for the greater good," Karson said.

"Good of what?!"

"It's hard to explain in the right words...It's like this there's bad people out there that want to hurt others. I need this to be done so that doesn't happen. You want the good people to stay around right?"

"...I...think so..." she said, tears still in her eyes.

"Don't worry. Even if you think I'm not here, I'll always be there to protect you. In any way possible."

"How touching..." Maxwell's voice was heard making Karson turn quickly to protect his child, "I'm sorry to say, that the game is up. Give me the vial and nothing will happen to you or your little girl."

"No! I know you! You've made deals like this before and you kill them anyway."

"It's seems my reputation has gone pretty far. Shame really. Oh well, it was nice to meet face to face, but now you are judged by me and me alone. Give me the vial!"

"Never!"

"Do I have to kill your daughter just to get-"

"Uh sir...she's gone," a trooper spoke out.

"What?! I told you to keep an eye on her!"

"I was, but she vanished right in front of me!"

"That's my girl," Karson said, "She has the ability to change into anything and anyone. I taught her to keep the enemy thinking."

"A suitcase is missing too," another said.

"So that's where it is. Go out and find her! Now!" Maxwell said as they run out, "As for you..."

The girl ran as fast as she could through the trees, suitcase in hand. She heard a gun shot a moment later, and tears came out of her eyes, but this made her run faster and said to herself, "Goodbye, dad." She remembers where to go, and heads for a building, one that caused fear in the past. Troopers spot where she's heading, stopped, and called Maxwell. "She's heading where? Well, don't bother then. I have some boys in there that will take care of this problem. Honestly, I should have thought of taking over that place first before anything."

The trooper looks up at the building and looks at it's symbol saying, "I hope it goes well sir."

[The Melee Master]

Awesome! This is exciting!

[ganondorf2]

Chapter 4

Meanwhile at Umbrella Corp, a business man was looking through papers on it's past plans and said, "Never again will monsters like this happen."



"How can you be sure?" another man spoke nearby. He looked like he was in his thirties and have been in the army at one point as he was well built for a fight.



He looks over at his partner and said, "Ever since you had taken over this nightmare of a corperation, you've been nose deap in those files. No wonder you wear sunglasses all the time. You're eyes are shot just looking at them these last few months."

"I've got to make sure the data on the Tyrant projects are forgotten completely. I don't want this horror story to repeat itself."

The solider sighs to this and turns his head to a woman near him, wearing a red dress, saying, "Am I the only one that has this feeling that it's will repeat, but in a different...light, I guess."

"No, I've had that feeling as well," she said, then looks at her gun for a moment before putting it back in her case, that was on her leg, "Something also feels that we'll have to make this an exception too."



"Why do you say that?"

"Honestly, I'm not sure."

"That's a first for you," the man teases.

She snickers to this and then they hear, "Jack. Alice." Making them turn and spot their boss looking out the window.

"About time you took a break," the solider said.

"It's not that...I see someone running over here."

Both Jack and Alice look out as well and spot the girl running to Umbrella Corp.

"What the?" Jack sounded.

"She looks scared," Alice said, "Is someone after her?"

"Whatever it is, you two better get her out of there."

"Yes sir," They said at the same time before running out

The man looks more closely, before grabbing his coat and runs out himself, realising he knew the person.

The 11 year old girl, slows down and was gasping for air at that point. Both Alice and Jack had run out of the building, freaking the girl out.

"It's OK," Alice said, "We saw you running this way. We came to help."

"I don't trust you," she said, unsure of them.

"Now what?" Jack whispered to his partner.

"Allow me," their boss's voice was heard behind them, making them turn as he walked past, "I know her."

"Leo? Leo!" she shout in happiness and ran over to hug him.

"How's Karson's little girl doing?" he asked

"Scared...dad...is-is..." she starts.

"Shh shh, calm down. How about we come inside to talk."

Leo signals to Jack to keep an eye out, to which he nods as the girl is taken inside.

Alice looks out for a moment to see two troopers run off and whispers this to Jack before heading in herself.

-----------------------

An hour passes as the child explains what happened, making Leo get to his feet and make his hand into a fist.

"You're kidding...he's gone?" Leo asked the girl and she nods still crying.

The Umbrella boss punches a nearby wall in anger to this, hurting himself from that but didn't feel anything as he was too upset to feel the pain. The loss was the biggest one.

"Leo? Do you know her father?" Jack asked.

He takes a small breather and said, "He was my friend. Over twenty years on the force. He and I went seprate ways because our jobs. I was more into business while he enjoyed more of the field work. He was about to be cheif too."

"That's terrible..." Alice said looking at the girl, "Now she doesn't have anyone."

"She has me," Leo said, "I sometimes visit when I'm out of work."

"There's something dad wanted me to give you too..." the girl said holding up the suit case.

The boss takes it and opens it on a nearby table to see what was in it. The large vial and two notes, one with a picture, the other with something writen on it. It reads,

'If you are reading this, I might be dead. I'm giving you this vial and picture as a last request. You need to make clones base on people that my daughter knows and loves. The vial that is in this case is for the first one and only the first clone. The picture provided is what he's supposed to look like...but the only problem is, she's scared to death of him. Please, you are the only one I trust with this task. I was told things are going to get bad in the future and you are the only one now to help with stopping this. ~Officer Karson'

"What does it mean?" Jack asked.

"Looks like I'll have to use those machines..." Leo said.

"The same ones that held the Tyrants?!"

"Not quite," he said, looking at the picture then looks at Karson's only child, before grabbing and looking at the vial, "Not for the same story in it's past. We have something they didn't, and I hope to use it for peace."

"Are you talking about that blue stuff?"

Said blue stuff was found not long after Leo took over the corporation. It was never used in any of the tyrants of the past either as if it was too risky to use without getting noticed given it was radioactive and unstable in great amounts like nitro.

"Have your boys figured out where it was from yet?" Alice asked.

"Still trying to figure it out," Leo said then looks at the note, "But I'm pretty sure I know how and what to use it for." He turns to Alice and said, "Call Andrew. Tell him I have work for him."

"Yes sir," she said and starts calling him

"Jack, I need you to keep an eye on the young lady. I don't want her hurt, by anyone."

He salutes to this as Leo walks off for the time being. The solider looks at the girl saying, "I never thought I'd be a babysitter, but then again, these days are getting darker and more dangerous. Good thing you came to us when you did, kid."

She nods to this and saying, "I just pray things will get better."

"I'm with you on that."

[The Melee Master]

Nice!

You're a Resident Evil fan, I take it.

[ganondorf2]

Not really, I just went with this, because it kind of fits with the story...note kind of. They talk about the phazon too, so part Prime series too.

Chapter 5

A large status tank was placed in the middle of the lab area of the building and Leo said, "I can't believe I'm doing this..."

"This is your old comrade. It might be best to go by his wishes. Besides, I have a funny feeling it will be in your favor."

Leo growls softly to this and said, "Where is she? She better not get scared to what I ask of her."

"I'll get her sir," Jack said walking off, giving Leo time to think to himself.

"To think I have to use the very tanks that housed those monsters..." he thought, "Karson...what are you thinking? Are you trying to 'kill' my job?" He paces added to his thought, "And what are you talking about? This danger, and why only this...person getting the vial's contents?"

The young girl walks in with Jack behind her and said, "I'm back."

"...Are you ready?" Leo asked.

"I think so," she said.

"You father tells me of your ability to change into anyone or anything." He shows the picture of the person to change into and, just as the note warned, she freaks out and hides behind Jack, making the solider look around in shock to see her so close.

"This will take a bit," the boss said sighing to the sight of her reaction.

"I got this sir," Jack said then to the child, while kneeling down to her level, "Listen kid. This needs to be done, and I know it's scary, but tell you what...I'll protect you once this is done. OK? He won't lay a hand on you."

"Are you sure?" she asked, with hope in her eyes.

"Perfectly sure. I'm ready for anything that comes my way. I was trained for this."

Now calmer she nods to this and walks over.

A young man walks over with a cane in one hand and she notices something quickly from this and asked, "Is he ok?"



"He is blind, sad to say," Leo said, "He's been that for years, but when it comes to attitude, he never stops. It never holds him back. Right Andrew?"

"You got that right, Leo," the scientist said making the girl smile.

"Now if you don't mind," Leo said.

She was nervous again then used her ability to change into the very person making the others, minus Andrew, find out why she was so scared of him as he was 7'5' and had big muscle build. Holding out her hands now, Andrew takes a swab of skin before placing in a vial of it's own. She changes back before hiding again. The large and small vials were placed in the computer, and it was introduced into the tank and turned on. Sparks were seen then a flash of light blinds everyone a moment later. It fades out and a tall man was seen inside...wearing the very armor that the person had on in the picture. His eyes were closed and there was no movement...no breath entering or exiting the being either. The girl stays with Jack and Leo was thinking, "Did we do it? Did we get it right?"



What everyone didn't know, Aeon had snuck in, holding a dark gem like heart, and said, "Have a heart clone. You must wake." He places it on the clone's back and it vanishes.



He vanishes as well so not to be caught. It reappears into the empty area of his chest and start to take over parts of the body then a blue substance wakes and also take's it's share. Memories start to flood into the clone's mind as well as pain in some parts of the body.

Everyone spots his hands twitching, as well as his face moving like he was in pain, growls as proof.

"He's angry isn't he?" the girl asked.

"No...this is pain," Leo said, then asked her, "What was in that vial?"

"Dad never said."

"That crazy man!"

The clone then cries out from the pain. Arms wrapped around his chest.

"Do something!" Alice shouts.

Leo runs over with Andrew to try and figure what went wrong, then he went silent.

"Oh no...he isn't dead...is he?" Jack asked.

A woman runs down because of the commotion, and looks at everyone then the clone.

After a few minutes, nothing was happening making Leo upset thinking that he had failed his friend saying, "Blast! What did I do wrong?"

"Nothing...look again..." Alice said and points at the tank.

Slowly the clone's eyes open, and start looking around. From the books on the nearby shelf to the computers reading his vitals. He soon spots the group and shows a look of surprise.

"I don't understand...was he dead or..." Leo starts.

"He needed time," Andrew said, able to tell he was nervous, then walks up to the tank.

"Andrew..." the boss was about to protest, but Jack said, "Wait...it might make things worse."

The scientist places his hand on the tank making the clone inside curious and knelt down. He looks at his own hand and does the same, showing that his hands are bigger too. Andrew could tell their hands made contact even though it was blocked by glass and said, "Welcome to the world."

[The Melee Master]

Oh I see. So that's how Nova was made, huh? I don't remember what you said before in the RP's, so yeah. Nice work!

[ganondorf2]

Pretty much. He learns fast too as well as act fast. That will come later.

Chapter 6

The girl was still nervous of the clone and Jack asked, "So this is what he wanted? I'll be honest, I'm a little nervous about him myself."

"He doesn't seem to be doing anything threatening," Alice said, "I have to wonder however: What caused so much pain to him?"

"You got me," Leo said, as the vials come out of the machine now, "Karson did something, but what I have no idea." He turns to Andrew and hands over the large flask and asked, "Andrew, do you think you could look into the content of this?"

Andrew puts his hand down and tries to find Leo's hand and the boss tries to help, but then hears a deep voice saying, "To your right."

"Thank you," Andrew said and takes the vial, only to freeze and ask, "Who's there?"

"My word...that didn't take long..." Alice said in shock, as it was the clone that spoke.

"I'll check how, sir," the female worker said, and looks at a nearby computer, looking at everything that is going on inside the clone.

"While that's being done...what should we call him?" Leo asked as Andrew walks off with the vial.

"What is this guy's name anyway in that picture." Jack asked the girl.

"Ganondorf..." she said, "He's from a video game I play. He's the bad guy."

"Should we stick with that name for him?" Alice asked.

"Maybe as a code name...but I'm thinking of this project as a whole," Leo said.

"I got the results sir."

"Yes, Sophia?"

"There's many things in him that's making him learn quickly, he's already past the human brain usage."

"What?! How in the name?"

"Also traces of viruses are also present in the clone," she continues, "That may be the reason for the pain if not a toxin that is also present."

"This gets better and better..." Jack said, sarcastically.

"Wait...this can't be right."

"What is it?" Alice asked

"He has no heart rate...it isn't present, yet he's alive!"

"Wait...he's alive even though he should be dead..." Leo thought aloud, "This might sound strange...But how about project, Neutron Nova?"

"Why that name sir?" Jack asked.

"I was thinking about different stars at the time you said about this. Neutron is usually a dead star that came from a super nova."

"And the Nova part?"

"The sudden blight light of his appearance and the fact he was made from two things or more. Also it can mean 'new' as well in the stars."

"Huh, I never thought of that."

Ganondorf sat down in his tank while they talked and made fire appear in hand for a moment and didn't realise what he was doing and put it out again with a flick of his hand, blushing to this as he knew not to do that.

"Did you see that?" Jack asked in surprise.

"That I did!" Leo said, coming close to the tank, "If you don't mind me asking, could you do that again? You're not in trouble, but I just want to see."

Nova look as his hands for a moment, unsure, but does it again.

"Does he do that in your games?" Jack asked the girl.

"No," she said, "He uses something else."

"Most interesting!" Leo said, then checks for time and said, "Shoot, it's far too late to see what else he can do."

"We can't just leave him in there over night," Alice said.

"I'm sure he'll be fine," Leo said then notices Ganondorf was starting to doze off, then lies down, "At least he has the right idea."

"OK, but what of the young lady?" Jack asked.

"She'll be living with me," he said, "Now I want you all to get some rest."

"Yes sir," the duo said, and left and the girl follows Leo out, still worried about Ganondorf as he laid in his tank.

Minutes pass before all the lights were turned off. The clone opens one eye and looks around and now sure that everyone was gone, he looks at a camera that was aimed at him and closes his eyes again. The very camera started to short out then went offline and this made him say, "Sorry about that, but I rather not have anyone looking over my shoulder." This showed that he had figured out his mind and disabled the camera for the time being, just with his thoughts, before looking at the books laid out in the shelf. He got up and aims his hand out at them and at first, was struggling to get them over to his tank. "OK...don't do that yet..." he said, now getting a headache, but he then feels pain in his body again before looking at a computer showing that he was changing slightly. "So that's the case huh?" he said to himself, as the pain faded, "Well...lets try that again then." He aims his hand at the books once again and this time they flew slowly to him. "That's better," he said with relief, before he started to read.

Hours pass, and the sun was about to appear and Ganondorf had just finished the last book and everything was placed back on the shelf, in the correct order too, giving him a bit of relief and said, laying down, "I better turn that thing back on." Now back in the 'sleeping' position again, he focus and made the camera turn back on with his thoughts as his eyes closed to sleep for a few hours at least.

[The Melee Master]

Nice work!

[ganondorf2]

Thanks

Chapter 7

Leo walks in the lab with the girl and spots the clone, still sleeping and said, "Good, at least he slept. I need to do tests with him."

"Like what?" she asked.

"Well, intelligence is one I'll cover some time...but right now, movement. Just to see if those muscles aren't just for show."

Jack and Alice walk in a moment later, the female stretching while at it and asked, "So what's the plan?"

"To test him, of course," the boss said, then spots the computer being on and said, walking over, "Did they forget to turn this off again?"

Ganon opens his eyes slightly and watches this as Leo tries to figure it out.

"OK...it turned on to update on the clone's progress..." he said, then looks through the video files but he stops, "The surveillance camera went down?"

"Huh, I shouldn't have done that then," Ganondorf thought, then starts to get up, "I'll tell him."

"It was shut off at 9:00pm? That's odd," Jack said.

"Not really," the clone spoke out making them turn, "I had shut it down for a little while."

"What? How and why?" Alice asked.

"The how part was part of my change," he said.

"He's right, part of his brain was used at that time," Leo said, then looks at Ganondorf, "On the camera. But what I don't understand is you used it again around that time too...about 5 minutes later in fact and it got stronger."

"He changed a little sir," Alice said, "Look at the readings."

Leo looks through it and said, "You're quite the study."

Ganon rubs the back of his neck to this, feeling awkward.

"Now for the why. You don't like cameras?" Leo asked.

"I have a bad feeling about them," he said, walking up close to the edge of the tank, "Let alone, I didn't want to give you a heart attack on what I did next."

"That is?"

He turns his head away then raises his arm to the book shelf. One of the books shake and floats over, making everyone show a look of shock and fear. It was placed on a nearby table, before he lowers his arm again.

"What just happened?!" Alice asked.

"He lifted the book...with his mind!" Jack said in shock then turns to Leo on this and said, "This is crazy! How can he learn so fast?!"

"I'm trying to figure this out," he said.

Andrew walks in now and said, handing over papers, "This might shed some light."

The boss looks at them and this gives Ganondorf a chance to look at Andrew more closely, thinking, "I wonder what happened to him?"

"Traces of T-Virus, G-Virus, the Progenitor...a toxin called Phazon and...what's this?" Leo said, "Unknown DNA is also present from many life forms...Blood type...Huh?"

"What is it?" Alice asked.

"His blood...is mixed! That can't be possible! Anybody that has mixed blood would die in minutes! He's got every type even the rarest!"

"I think I know why, Leo," Andrew said, making him turn his head to the scientist, "The phazon part of his structure might be the main reason as it is also a living organism.

"English please," Jack said, hand to his forehead in frustration. Science was his biggest downfall in his life.

"He's saying that we have two people in one here," CEO said, "This...phazon...might be keeping the blood in check. However, the DNA in general confuses me. It can't pinpoint what he really is."

"Let's...just move on. We still need to test him, yes?" Alice said, arms folded loosely.

"Right," Leo said, still shook up.

"Is it really ok to let him out?" the girl asked.

"Ah yes, hold on," he said, walk over to the controls and said, "I'm going to let you out, but I ask you to not touch the young lady. Do I make myself clear?"

Ganondorf nods to this and the tank slowly lifts off, making him look around. He slowly takes steps down, looking around at the lab and at one point he almost trips as the cloth of his boot was caught on the metal stair. He bends down to release the cloth free, before trying again: stopping in front of the group.

"OK, for your first test, I need to know how fast you can run," Leo said and walked ahead.

"Don't do anything you regret," Alice said, before walking off herself to help the CEO.

The clone scratches his head to this and watches Jack go by, with the girl, saying to Alice, "I don't think he will. I'll back you up just in case however."

Ganondorf thinks to himself and thought, "Why are they so nervous about me? OK, what I did didn't help matters. Watch what you do. I don't want to scare them more then needed. First and foremost, see what they are going to do in these tests." He takes a deep breath then follows the group, being very careful of what his actions take him.

[The Melee Master]

This is going to be interesting. Nice job!

[ganondorf2]

Chapter 8

Ganondorf continues to look around as he walked, trying to figure out how big it was and stops himself when he heard, from Jack, "This way." He realised he was going the wrong way for a moment, but went back on track quickly so he doesn't get himself in trouble again.

"I thought I lost you big fella," the solider said, looking back and noticing the clone had walked off for a second.

"Sorry...it's just this place is so big," he admits, "I'm just curious that's all."

"I know you are, but for the time being, please stick close to us," Jack said in serious tone.

"Yes, sir."

He stopped at that, and asked, "Did you just learn that?"

"You keep saying that to him," the clone points out about Leo and figuring he was in trouble again, he became nervous, "I figure it was ok."

The solider makes a short chuckle and said, "It's perfectly fine. As a matter of fact, it's a sign of respect. I was going to teach you about things like that, but it looks like you pick things up quickly."

Ganondorf sighs heavily to that, head down, and said, "I thought...that was a bad thing there."

"No, not in the slightest," Jack said, with a smirk, patting him on the shoulder, "Now come on, we still need to test you. You're not trying to avoid it are you?"

He shook his head to that and followed more closely at that point. Entering another large room, Ganondorf looks around again before hearing, "Ah there you are."

Leo and Alice were standing near a treadmill and the CEO asked, "Was there trouble? I figure you'd be here sooner."

"You can blame me," Jack said, "It was what Ganondorf addressed me as, was what slowed me down."

"Nothing bad?"

"Not really. He's pretty curious for the most part, when I went after him for that short wounder, he said 'sir' to me. He's showing respect as well as learning quickly from us."

"I see. At least that's a good thing," Leo said, then to Ganondorf and asked him, "Do you know what this is?"

He looks and said, "This is a treadmill."

"This is to test your speed. As well, we just made you, so it's only right to stretch your legs. Go on."

The clone wasn't sure at first then walks on it.

"Just stay there for a moment, we are going to control it over here," Leo said and walks off to another room, with the others in tow, and picks up a mike and asked on it, "Can you hear me?"

This startles Ganondorf for a moment and covered his ears. The mike was too loud for him and he shouts, "Loud and clear! Ow!"

"Shoot...that old thing is on the fritz again..." Leo said then to Alice, "Could you try and calm him from that?"

"Yes sir," she said walking out, the CEO and solider try to fix the mike. When she did come out, the clone had sat down, slapping the side of his head for a second and she said, "I must apologise for that. This place has old equipment and sadly, the microphone was one of those things."

"Did it have to be loud?" the clone asked, shaking off the shock and getting to his feet again.

"Normally, no. I told him to try and buy a new one, but he said the good one's cost too much."

"Cost? How much?"

"I wish I kne-Wait...You understand that?"

"Understand what?"

"Cost of things? You understand that?"

"That's one of those things I read, while I was in my...area," he said, hand on the back of his head. Now feeling awkward again.

"I see. Now I wonder what else you have learned," Alice said, now curious. She walks back saying, "You seem to be OK for the time being. Again sorry for the sudden...high volume."

"It's fine..." he said, then noticed some books nearby on fitness, however instead of going after them, he waits this time.

"Hows the fix?" she asked.

"I think we got it. How did Ganondorf seem?"

"Learning fast. I know you don't want to hear me whine over you not getting a new one...but I'm bringing it up as when I said this to him, he responded with 'How much?'

"You're kidding?" Jack asked, in interest now.

"He likes to learn it seems," Leo said, getting the mike ready, "His mind is that of a child. Now lets try this again."

The clone looks around again then hears, "Can you hear me?" This time he nods to this.

"Good, I'm going to start the machine. It might startle you when it suddenly moves under you. This is normal and it will speed up in time, so do your best to stay on it"

Leo nods to Jack and he starts up the controls and just as he said it would do, Ganondorf starts to walk on it.

"He's so tall. This is like nothing for him at this speed," Jack said.

"Turn it up. Slowly, I don't want him in panic."

The solider does so making him go into a brisk walk then it starts to pick up again, starting to have him run and faster again then stops at that speed for an hour.

---------------------------------------

In the status tank area, the computer was updating the clone's vital lines before it goes crazy and suddenly the leg strength chart suddenly shot up.

---------------------------------------

Ganondorf felt something wrong with his legs at that very moment as he felt great pain in them, and tense up, making him fall off the training device as if he had tripped.

"What the?!" Alice sounded in shock seeing this, before running out the door to help.

Both men stop what they were doing and ran with her, the girl staying back to watch.

The clone tries to get back up from this, but couldn't, staying down. Both from pain and the fact they both felt like led.

"Are you ok? What happened," Jack asked.

"I felt...sharp pain as I was running...now they feel like they are on fire," he said.

"Get a chair," Leo said and Alice does so as he and Jack help the clone up to it. Once he sat down, he sighs with relief.

"Was it too fast?" the solider asked the clone.

"No, it was fine, it just happened so suddenly."

"Another change?" Alice wondered.

"Might be," Leo said, "Let give him a moment."

"Actually, let give him something to keep his mind off the pain," Alice said

"Like what?"

"Those magazines might work," she points at the rack of them, "He's so eager to learn, so I don't see the harm."

"I got better ones in my office, I'll go get them," Jack said and walked off.

"I'm sorry about this," the CEO said, feeling bad about this sudden event.

"It's not your fault, sir," the Ganondorf clone said.

Surprised, Leo said, "Jack wasn't lying. You pick up pretty quick. Now I know you read those science books and were listening to us."

"I'm not sure what they all mean and I didn't finish one of them."

"Well, I'll have to see about that won't I? I'll see what I can do, but for now just try and relax." Jack comes back with some books in hand and places them down beside the clone.

"Knock yourself out, but don't do that for real. You almost did that already," the solider said, joking.

"Oh! Uh...I don't know what to say!" Ganon said, thankful.

"A thank you is in order."

"You said it for me, but thanks."

"We got a smart aleck here," Jack laughs making the clone smile and do the same.

[The Melee Master]

lol! Nice work!

[ganondorf2]

I wasn't sure if it was funny

Chapter 9

Hours pass, as everyone waits to see how Ganondorf was doing from the sudden fall. The clone still reading a book in hand, before putting it down, now feeling better and asked, "Can I try the treadmill again?"

"Are you sure about this?" Leo asked, "I don't want you to hurt yourself."

"I'm sure," he said, standing up.

"I'll be out back then. Alice watch to make sure nothing happens."

"Yes sir," she said and stayed with him, as the CEO and Jack both go back and Sophia was watching as well, nearby and hidden.

Ganondorf got on the machine again and waited for it to be turned on.

Leo gives a nod and it was turned on, making the clone walk before he started to run.

----------------------------------

A worker was watching as well, and called someone on a phone and said, "I see what they made. Scary looking dude. He's doing the agility test."

"Try and break him. Hack the treadmill and make it go faster then it's intended use," Maxwell's voice was heard on the other end.

"Yes sir," the man said, and got out a switch and pressed it.

----------------------------------

Ganondorf felt something was wrong at that moment as it started to speed up.

"I didn't say to go faster!" Leo said said to Jack.

"I'm not doing anything!" he said as his hands weren't even on the controls.

The CEO panics as the machine was getting faster, rushes to try and stop it and said, "It's been changed!"

-------------------------------------------

The worker snickers and said, on the phone, "I got him running good now. He'll get tired."

-------------------------------------------

Alice hears the trouble from Leo and was stunned as the treadmill was going crazy...getting faster and was more then a human can handle. She looks at Ganondorf at that moment in fear for him, but only to find the look on his face had changed, from fear to deep focus as a smirk appears on his face.

"Leo?" she starts.

"Don't tell me he's hurt..." his voice was heard coming out.

"No...look at this! It's Ganondorf! His speed increased with the machine! He's no longer effected by it!" Both men look out and notice that that Nova didn't feel pressure from this, and his body was lowered like he was in speed skating, hands behind his back.

---------------------------------------

The enemy watches as well in shock, as he watches the clone jump, changes position, and starts running backwards for a moment, before jumping back forward. The foe then talks to his boss and said, "I did what you told me...but...but..."

"But what?" Maxwell asked.

"This guy hasn't tired out. He's still going! I can't get it any faster either!"

"Impossible! Get back to work on another plan, now!"

"Y-Yes sir, Mr. Maxwell sir" he said then presses the button again to give Leo control again, just as he ran off.

---------------------------------------

Sophia was also in shock, but was relieved he was ok.

Jack notices the controls were under his command once more and starts to slow it down, slowing the clone as well to a stop.

"Are you ok? Was it too fast?" Alice asked, worried

Ganondorf laughs to this and said, "Are you kidding? That was fun! I didn't think this thing went this fast!"

"Are you joking?!" Leo said, "It shouldn't go that fast, period!"

"Really?" the clone asked in surprise, "I thought it was part of the test."

Alice chuckles to this, getting Leo angry, but she says, "Lighten up. It seems he has adapted to the sudden speed. The prank on him didn't faze him in the slightest."

"Some prank! The idiot could have killed him! Check his vitals, when you have the chance," Leo said, then walks away, "I need a break from this."

This worried Ganon on this, but Jack said, "Hey it's ok. It's not your fault. Heck, you beat the test by a mile!"

"Still maybe I should show a little more...concern to that," the clone continues struggling to find the right words and looked down, feeling bad.

The girl comes out to this, and Alice said, "There's one thing we have to figure out, is what happened."

"I lost control of the treadmill," Jack said, "I saw random numbers on the computer, showing to me of a hack."

"A hack? How odd. Do you think they tried to go after someone here?"

"It happened when...Ganondorf started to run on it...Great...someone's trying to stop us."

"And tried to go after me, huh?" he asked, crossing his arms, then makes a smirk again, "I hate to tell them that it was a failed attempt. I'm still here."

"Which I'm glad to see first hand," Alice said with a smile.

"Same here, comrade," Jack said.

"Comrade?" Ganondorf asked in confusion.

"It means 'friend'," he said, "I usually say it to my buddies that I work with for years."

"So why call me that now?"

"I think it suits you. Besides, you went through this. I think it's safe to call you that."

Ganondorf smiles to that, and said, "Thanks, I need that."

"We all need that," Alice said with a smile of her own.

[ganondorf2]

Chapter 10

Everyone was waiting for Leo to return, Ganondorf was sitting down, reading again, asking, "Is he alright?"

"I'm sure he is," Alice said, "From what happened, I'd be needing time to myself too."

"I'll go check on him," Jack said, then to the girl "Come on." he walked out of the room, the girl trailing behind.

The clone sighs to this, and turns in his seat slightly and asked, "May I ask about something? The child. Who is she?"

"I don't know her, but Leo does. She's here because she has no where to go. Her father was killed yesterday."

Ganondorf widens his eyes to this and said, with sadness, "I'm sorry."

"I'm glad you say that. She's scared of you ever since you appeared."

"I don't understand."

"You are clone of a man known to do bad things."

"I haven't done anything wrong."

"A few mistakes here and there, but you are doing well. I think it's more of the real person's reputation that scares her. Making her think you will do the same thing as him. So far what I've seen, you haven't done anything major."

"OK, good..."

"You look kind of scary too, which doesn't help."

"Sorry?"

Alice bring out her compact, opens it, and said, before handing it over, "Don't break this, this is my only one."

He takes it and looks at the mirror inside it, and was surprised. He then looks at every part of his face. Glancing at his golden sunken eyes as well as the sideburns and unusually bushy eyebrows before asking, looking at her, "I'm supposed to look like this?"

"Yes sir," Alice taking the compact back before noticing he was thinking,and asked, "Does it upset you?"

"No, I'm just trying to figure out something."

"May I ask what?"

"How to make her trust me."

"Can I give you a bit of advice?"

"What's that?"

"Just be patient. The waiting game is best for situations like this. I should know, it took me a while to get my colleges to trust me."

"Oh?" Ganondorf sounded then asked, "Why's that?"

"Mostly my attitude. I tend to play around with people. I've settled down since then, but I still do so if not a little more careful."

The clone makes a short chuckle to this, then hears Leo and Jack come in, the girl behind them and the CEO said, "I'm surprised you are still here."

"I had a little chat with Ganon, nothing more," Alice said, as the clone got to his feet, "Anything we have to do next?"

"Strength is next on the list, and I hope it doesn't go wrong."

"I don't think so," Jack said, "But I'll go and make sure of that right away. I'll be his spotter."

"Good idea," Alice said then to the clone, "In his spare time, he works at a health club. He'll give you a hand if anything happens."

"Got it," he said, "Just tell me what to do."

"I think you'll enjoy what I have set up for you," Jack said walking off, Ganondorf following, still thinking about this whole thing.

[The Melee Master]

Sorry for not responding so quick. Both chapters are great, of course. Looking forward for the next update, but no rush!

[ganondorf2]

Chapter 11

They enter a room with many machines for fitness, making Nova curious again...though he read about them, using them might be a different story.

"Don't worry, I'll explain each one," Jack said, "It might bore you however."

"If you say so," Ganondorf said.

"Lets start with the benchpress. I find it's the easiest to learn, however you got to know the right breathing techiques to use it right. Lets practice this, I don't want you to black out."

He nods to this, meanwhile Leo and Alice started to talk to each other of the problem they had earlier.

"Strange things have been happening ever since I got here," the CEO said, "Systems like that going off suddenly seem to be the norm..."

"The test was hacked, sir," Alice said.

"Hacked?"

"Yes sir. Jack and I looked at the systems and it got hacked on us, then the hack disappeared a moment later, which I think it was by remote to have it do so quickly."

"That means it was an inside job..."

"My thoughts exactally."

"We are going to have to watch him more closely then," Leo then said, watching both Jack and the Ganon clone do stretches now, then looks at Alice, "What do you think of those two?"

"What's to think about them? Well...besides the fact they get along pretty well."

"That's what I was thinking. Ganondorf is learning from us pretty quickly as well, and even saying things we didn't even teach him yet. It's incredible."

"You mentioned some of the viruses...I know the G varient evolves very quickly...but he's not acting like the virus at all," she adds, "He's not acting primal...like he wants to reproduce, and yet the other type, the t-virus isn't changing him into a Tyrant even though he was in pain not long ago." She thinks then adds,"The mix of the two hasn't done anything to his appearence either. I'm sure you know the story from that 'gentlemen'"

"Don't remind me...He was insane and I'm glad he's dead," Leo said in disgust, "However, this made me think too. I see no sign of the mix of the two at work as no electricity has shown out of his body.

"It might be dorment, it better stay that way."

"Agreed."

"OK, you ready?" Jack asked Ganondorf.

"I feel like it," he said walking over to the bench.

The solider helps the clone on and walks into postion grabbing hold of the weight for his partner.

"Now take your time with this," Jack said, "And always check your breathing."

He does what was told, and starts to bench press, although it feels like he had done something like this before as he had no problem with it. About five minutes pass, his arms started to bother him now, as the sharp pain returns, and calls out, "I need a little help!"

"You were doing great," Jack said.

"I'm serious! My arms are acting like my legs!" he said, struggling to lift from the pain.

The solider was quick to act when he heard that, lifts the weight off and back to it's holding bar, before helping the clone up.

"What happened?" Leo asked.

"It happened again," he said, "This time his arms suffered."

"Now it's make me wonder. Nova only needs a trigger to get better at something."

"You're quick to think that," Jack said, a little annoyed.

"No, it makes sense," Ganondorf said, making everyone turn to him, "I got pretty fast after my legs gave me trouble. What's to say about my arms now?"

"Huh...It looks like what we are doing is 'waking up' things in him," Alice said.

"Now I'm worried..." Leo said, sporting a look that matched.

"If that's the case. Lets give him time to recover," the solider said, then walks off, "I'll put more weights on the bar in the mean time."

This made the clone nervous as said, "Whoa, don't go crazy!"

"It's not by much, Ganondorf. It's by five pounds, relax," he said laughing, "Besides, it's normal to increase the challenge a little. See how far you can go before getting tired."

"Why do I feel that's not quite true," he thought about the weight, now emberassed of what going on with his body, "Just...go easy on me right now. I have no idea what's going on."

"We are with you on that," Alice said, "We are still trying to figure out what happened last time...or rather, who did it."

"Thankfully, things are going well with you dispite the close calls," Leo said.

The clone relaxes before thinking, "But for how long?"

[ganondorf2]

chapter 12

The clone looks as his hands, trying to see if they will work with him still, opening and closing them to stretch them a little and thinking, "What am I suppose to be?"

"Are you ready?" Alice asked.

"Give me a minute," he said, trying to get focused again, and does the breathing exercise before getting up and said, "Sorry, I was trying to gather myself."

"I can understand," Leo said, letting him walk by and watched as he sat down on the bench once more, Jack helping him with the weights. Once it was in his hand, Ganondorf sports a look of confusion and said, "You put on extra weights right?"

"That I did," the solider said.

He places the weight back without help then checks on how heavy it was and saying, "Leo's right. I don't feel the weight anymore."

"He got stronger..." the CEO said, now thinking, "This is getting more and more strange. I'll have to check the vitals now then."

"Uh...what's that blue stuff on his boots?" the girl asked, pointing at Nova's feet.

Everyone looks and saw something glowing blue and slowly climbing his feet.

"What's going on?!" the clone shouts, trying to remove it, "Get it off!"

Andrew rushes in and said, "We must get him to his tank! The toxin in Ganondorf is going to make him hard to control!"

"I'm going to lose control?!"

"Don't say things like that, it's hard on him as it is!" Leo shouts at his worker.

"I'm not lying sir. You must fill it with water as well. Please, you have to believe me!" Andrew said.

"Just do it," the clone said, calmly now, knowing this will make matters even worse if he stayed in a panic, "I need a break anyway."

The CEO sighs then said, walking to the lab, "You're right. I've already got my nerves in shock."

Jack looks at Nova's feet and asked Andrew, "What was it you saw?"

"That blue chemical is Phazon," he said, making the clone look at him, "This version is much different from the normal type as it seems to build up. I spoke of water for him, as it deludes the toxin."

"Uh," he sounded, "You mean it gets weaker?"

"Exactly."

"I hope he hurries then," Ganondorf said, as it was starting to cover his lower legs now, "This is starting to scare me."

"Lets go then," Alice said, sharing the same worry and runs off, the clone following.

Once at the lab, Leo had finished hooking everything up and said, "Go on."

Ganon walks in and noticed a breathing mask and puts it on, somehow knowing what to do as the tank fills with water. The tank fills completely and the clone looks again at his feet, to see the markings were gone before saying, "Close one." He looks around and said, "Wait, can anyone hear me?"

"You're fine, Nova, we hear you," Jack's voice was heard on microphone making him sigh with relief.

"Nova? That name works for me too," he thought

"I'm sorry this had to happen to you," Alice's voice was heard as well.

"Don't worry about it," Ganondorf said, smiling under the mask, then shrugs, "I guess I was just working too hard."

"I'm glad you can joke about it," Leo said, "And it was caught in time."

Nova lowers his arms and said, while looking away, "That's also true. I have to thank you...I don't want to lose my mind." He then crosses his arms and adds with a question that was stuck in his mind, "I wonder why I have this?"

"Once we get answers to that, we'll let you know," Alice said, wondering as well.

"It might take time on this," Andrew said, "However, since the water has stopped it, I'll have to see if I can make something to make you stay out for a longer time."

"Fair enough," he said, then lied back in the water, "Funny enough, this feels comfortable."

"I'm glad you feel that way. You'll be in there for a little while. Not too long though."

"If you need anything, let me know," Leo said as most of his team walk off

"Take your time," he said, and thought, "I need time to think anyway. Everything is happening so fast...is this the plan or is it something else?"

[The Melee Master]

Oh boy... Nice work on both chapters!

[ganondorf2]

Chapter 13

Andrew continued to research the phazon effects as Ganondorf was watching, making him wonder about the blind man. He observed everything he was doing, even looking at the books he was looking at, all in braille. He looks back at the scientist before asking, "How long were you like this?"

"Like what?" he asked, his head rising to his voice

"...being blind? I'm sorry if this is personal, but I'm just curious."

Andrew paused and asked, "You can tell huh? I wasn't blind before yes, as for how long...it's been years."

"I'm sorry," Ganondorf regretted asking now.

The man laughs and said, "No, it's fine. Don't feel petty on me. It was just...bad timing on what I had to do years ago."

"What do you mean?"

"I hope you don't mind stories."

"I don't mind, I mean, I'm not going anywhere." the clone joked around. He's in a status tank after all.

"Leo, Jack, Alice and I worked as a special team years ago," he starts, "We were sent to stop the old members of this place from making bio weapons or living killing machines used for war."

Hearing this, the clone floated down to sit near him.

"Most were taken out, but one...we didn't expect to wake. It broke out and the chemicals used to house the blasted nightmare went in my eyes. We managed to take it out, but I became blind at the end of it."

"Wow, you went through a lot then," Ganondorf said, "Did you ever stop the project?"

"We did...for a time," he says, "I've been hearing word that new living weapons are being made elsewhere...by this other company. Where I have no clue."

"That's be interesting to see..." the clone then said, thinking aloud, "If it's true that is."

"It's true sadly...it's run by a person named Maxwell. I never did catch his last name. He want everything to himself. Crazy man, does he have no commen sense?"

Once Ganondorf heard that name, something clicked and he places his hand to his head, and said, "I've...heard that name...before..."

"Excuse me?" Andrew asked, "Where at?"

"H-Hold on," he said, in pain again, now covering his head in pain. He's met him some how...but in a different light? No, it was from earlier! When he was doing the speed test! Someone mentioned that name in fear, but doesn't know who. He knew no one would believe him either from what's been happening then says, "I got a headache all of a sudden and it's getting worse."

"Another trigger..." the man said, then shouts, "Leo! Come quick...Something is happening to Neutron Nova!"

Leo and his team run in to see what's going on, to spot the clone with his hands to his head, but it looks like he's covering his ears mostly.

"How did this happen?" Alice asked.

"I was only tell him about my past, and when I mentioned the project that's happening and the name Maxwell, he started to feel pain. Has he met him?

"He never did! How can that suddenly trigger that response?"

Still struggling, the clone's brain started to change slightly, giving more info to him as well stronger awareness to everything around him. This was shown in his eyes for a moment, and they went black and numbers went across them at that moment. The pain vanishes a moment later and he snaps out of it, but not before starting to hear voices.

"I better get answers soon," Leo said.

"Don't bother," Ganondorf said, a little more serious sounding, and making the CEO turn, "It just sounded familiar. Sorry for that, I've been hearing voices lately."

"Voices?"

"Yeah, thus the massive headache."

"You better quiet them down then," he then said, getting a headache himself, "You keep changing, before we are even ready for it."

"I'm sorry, sir. I can't help it."

He sighs, then said, "I know you can't...just try to relax ok?"

"Understood."

Leo walks off at that point with the others, putting the clone's head down. Andrew on the other hand believes what Ganondorf said, "You know what's ironic...I heard the same as of late, but I've been keeping quiet about the whole thing."

Nova swam down close to the voice and asked, "You have?" He hits his head on the edge of glass too fast, making him say 'ow' and rub it. Water can fool you and he forgot even though is was in it.

"That I did. There's many workers around here that I have been getting a bad feeling from. His name did come up many times in whispers. I pretend that don't hear it, but being blind has it's...quirks as they say."

Ganondorf sports a smirk, slowly shakes his head, before saying, "You sneaky man."

"Do me a favor however. Don't tell anyone I told you this."

"My lips are sealed, sir."

"No need to address me as that. Just call me, Andrew," he said.

"OK, Andrew," the clone with a smile.

Nice!

BTW, a slight little coloring mistake near the end.

"Nova swam down close to the voice and asked, [/color=purple]"You have?"[/color] He hit head on the edge of glass making him say 'ow' and rub it."

Just thought I'd let you know. Not trying to be mean or anything.

Chapter 14

Jack walks in to check on Ganondorf, a few hours later, and noticed that he was asleep while Andrew works.

"How is he?" the solider asked.

"Not doing too bad. I told him to rest up, and you can see he's doing just that," he said.

"Have you figured out what truely happened to him with this headache?"

"Besides the fact he changed again?"

"Again? For crying out loud, doesn't that body of his slow down?" Jack asked, getting mad.

"Be happy of one thing though. All these changes has not changed his appearence," he continues, pressing buttons on the keyboard, before printing the data, "Let's see here."

"Let me know if something comes up," the solider said, walking off.

"Will do," the scientist said, getting the paper then feels around with his fingers on the letter before saying, about the clone "My, my, you've grown quite a bit haven't you? Leg strength is up by 50%. Same goes for your arm strength and your brain useage." He looks at the sleeping clone and thought, "And yet...You aren't done aren't you? Speed and arm strength are here...but the rest is not documented. I wonder what's the next thing that should be done?" He looks at another book, based on the real person and thought again, "Combat? That's right, he is known to be a great swordsman. Melee is here too as well as something called dark magic." He looks at Ganondorf, still sleeping, and said, before walking off "Take it easy, I'll be right back."

----------------------------------------------------

In Leo's office, the CEO continued to look through old files, trying his best to find the best ones to destroy so no once can make the monsters ever again. He hears a knock on the door and says, "Come in."

"It's just me," Andrew said, making Leo look up, "I've got the data on the clone."

"Ah good," making the boss stop, and take the papers "Let me see." He soon shows a look of shock, before looking at his college, "So I was right?"

"Indeed you are," Andrew said, "Although, there is a few elements missing that is if you are willing."

"I can guess what they are," he said looking at the data, "I'm against it."

"I know this sounds like a bad idea...but the fact that he learns quickly might suddenly turn on us if we don't show him more on the ways of right and wrong."

"So you think showing him how to fight is a good idea?! I still stand my ground on this!"

"Very well. Good day to you," Andrew said, not wanting to argue and walks away.

"That was a little harsh on him," Jack said, "What's up with you?"

"I...just want the old story to not appear again...I know he understands."

"He might have a point though," Alice said.

------------------------------------

Andrew came back to the tank Ganondorf was in, the clone now wide awake and said, "I'm sorry. I couldn't get him to listen. I know you need this training and I don't know if we are going to get attacked or not. You're here for a reason...what I don't know yet." The blind man sighs to this and adds, "He's just so parnoid about the past."

"Don't worry too much," he said, surprising the scientist as he was thinking he was still asleep, "Sorry about that. I woke up not long ago."

"You almost gave me a heart attack there," the man makes short chuckle then adds, "I'm not sure what to do now."

Ganon thinks for a moment and asked, "Does this place have anything in lines of training on swordplay, or martal arts in book form?"

"I'm not sure on swords, but we do have ones on close combat yes."

"Can you try to get me something like that at least? It would be best to go slow there and if I change again, only you will know. Sound like a plan?"

"Sounds like it to me. I hope we don't get caught doing this."

"I got it. Just bring one before you leave tonight"

Chapter 15

Hours had went by and it started to get late, Ganondorf looks around his tank still trying to figure out what's going on in him, when lights were starting to turn off and Leo walks out, asking Andrew "I'm going head out with Alice and Jack. Could you lock up before you leave for the day?"

"Of course," he said, "Have a good night."

As Leo and the other left, Andrew waits then stops what he's doing before, "Give me a moment. I'll see what I can find."

"Take your time," the clone said and watches as Andrew walks off into another room. He closes his eyes for a moment then learns a new trick with his mind, now it feels like he's with Andrew and asked, "Andrew?"

This made the man stop and look around, spooked, saying, "Nova? Where are you?"

"Oddly enough, I'm with you, even though I'm not..."

Now calm, Andrew said, "I see, you just learned that. You never cease to amaze me."

"You're amazed...I'm confused. It feels off."

"It might be best to take it slow. This might be great for you anyway, at least you'll know where to go when you leave the tank again."

"If I do you mean..."

"I need more time. That's all," Andrew said, and walked off down the hall to the study. He looks around, and places his hand on different books to feel for the right one, before saying, "Just my luck, it's probably moved on me." Using the cane, he taps the tile floor to know where the ladder is by sound. This made Ganondorf learn as well, if he ever loses his sight, but mostly watch closely for the scientist's safety. He had to go to the top of the shelf and was very careful climbing up, and said, once he placed his hand on it, "We'll there you are. Leo must have placed it here so I couldn't get it." The man puts it in his lab coat and starts to get back down, when his foot slips and he starts to fall shouting, "Ah!"

"Andrew!" the clone's voice was heard in his head in fear.

The very man was about to slam on the ground, and he knew it, back first, when he felt something slow his fall and asked, "Who's there?"

"It's just me," Ganon said, and without Andrew knowing it, Nova was slowing the great fall with his mind, though straining to do so until the last moment when the scientist felt the ground with both feet.

He sighs and said, "I'm glad you're changing as you are...I owe you one."

"No need for that, I'm just glad I caught you in time. That was hard on me however, so please be more careful."

"Don't worry," Andrew said, cleaning himself off a little, "I got what was needed." He places the ladder back to it's old spot before walking back to the lab, pulling out the book.

Nova opens his eyes, watching Andrew with his own eyes now and asked, "I didn't hurt you did I?"

"I'm fine," he said, "Just a little shook up." He walk over and places the book on the table, saying, "I better go. I'll see you later."

"OK, rest up," he said, as the book floats close to the tank before opening it up. As he read, he didn't realize he was being watched until he felt something off. He stops reading and looks around before getting back to what he was doing.

In another part of the building, Galacta was watching the clone and whispers into a hidden mike in it's shoulder pad, "Are you sure he will be ready? It seems he would rather read a book then fight."

"I'm not surprised that the CEO would be against this...Sorry, but I must ask of you to fight him anyway. Funny enough, that book has many types of fighting moves in it," Aeon's voice was heard on the other end, "I need you to do a distraction anyway. I need to make sure he gets this."

"If that's all that's needed, then I won't disappoint."

"Good, once the light of day comes, do what you do best. If I'm right, this will not only wake up his power, but show them what is needed as well."

"Got it, sir."

Nice work on both chapters!
