The Guyver's Angel of the Night
Part 2
Chronos; the
elevator
The elevator stopped and all the
lights went out.
"What
happened?" Mizuki asked looking
around the small dark space.
"They
stopped the elevator." Xanatos said
as he looked up at the
ceiling.
"Can we turn it back
on?"
"Not from here. We'll have to through the ceiling." Xanatos
said. He raised his laser gun and
said, "Stand back."
Mizuki leaned against the wall. Xanatos fired a blast. The blast
created a large hole in the ceiling.
Xanatos climbed through the hole
and reached down for Mizuki, "Take my hand." Mizuki grabbed his hand
and Xanatos pulled her through the hole.
"Where
do we go from here?" Mizuki asked
when she was safely
on top of the elevator.
"Easy. We go up." Xanatos said as he scooped Mizuki up into
his
arms. His jet pack spit fire when he
activated it. He ascended off the
elevator and headed with Mizuki. Mizuki
put her arms around his neck
for safety.
When
they reached the top, Xanatos stopped.
He hovered in front of
a sealed door. He raised his gun, aimed,
and fired a blast. The door
exploded open. Xanatos ascended onto the
roof then he gently set Mizuki
down.
"We
have to hurry. They'll come
soon." Xanatos said. He went
to the edge of the roof. "Lets
go."
"What
do you mean go?" Mizuki said.
"We're
going by air from here." Xanatos
said.
"I
don't know how to fly." Mizuki said
again feeling stupid.
"You don't fly. You glide." Xanato said.
"Spread your wings and
jump, then the wind currents lift you up.
You should figure out how to
make turns, gain and lose altitude by yourself."
Mizuki
stood beside him and looked over the edge.
All the people
on the street looked like ants. Mizuki
stepped back. "I'm sorry. I
can't."
Xanatos
put a comforting hand on Mizuki's shoulder.
"I know it's
scary for you, but you got to trust me.
I saw gargoyles glide a million
times. Plus, I'll be right there beside
you. I promise I won't let you
fall."
"I
can't do it." Mizuki said to shake
her head.
Xanatos'
computer in his helmet detected zoanoids coming their way.
"Miss Sagawa, I hate to do this, but it's the only way."
He
grabbed her wrist and began to pull her toward the edge. Mizuki
pulled back, but he was too strong for her.
"What are you going to
do!!?" She yelled.
"I'm
going to teach you how to glide the same way my father taught
me how to swim." Xanatos said as he
lifted her above his head.
"NOOOO!!! DON'T!!!!!" She screamed as she kicked and struggled.
"Remember
to spread your wings." Xanatos said
as he tossed her over
the edge.
"AAAAAAHHHHH!!!!!!!" Mizuki screamed as she went over the
edge. She
spread her wings in reflex. The wind
currents lifted her and she gained
altitude. Mizuki didn't realized this
until she noticed she hadn't hit
the street. She opened her eyes to see
the city below her.
"You're
doing well."
Mizuki
turned to see Xanatos flying next to her.
"I...I...I
can't believe it. I'm
gliding." Mizuki said. "How do I
turn?"
"You
need to figure that out for yourself."
Xanatos said. Within
minutes, Miuzki could turn, gain and lose altitude like Xanatos said. Xanatos
pressed a button on his wrist. A button
that made all of the Steel Clan
self destruct.
Chronos
Throughout the building, Steel Clan
robots were exploding. They
destroyed many rooms and a lot of zoanoids that way.
Out side Chronos
"Now that you know how to
glide, follow me." Xanatos said as
he flew
in a direction. Mizuki followed
him.
"Where
are we going?" She asked.
"We're
going to New York in my private jet.
You'll be safer there."
"What
about my brother? He'll be worried sick
about me, if he isn't
already."
"Don't
worry. Your brother will join you in New
York in two or three
days."
"Thank
you."
Mizuki
thought for a moment then asked,
"Why did Puck change me into
a gargoyle?"
"For
two reasons." Xanatos said. "First, he was teaching my son how
to change people into gargoyles. My son
can use magic, and second, he
meant it as a joke. He wanted to see
what Guyver1 would do if you were
a creature."
"You
know about the Guyver?" Mizuki
asked.
"Puck
told me about Guyver1 and Guyver3."
Xanatos said. "And here
we
are."
They
landed at an airport, right beside a jet.
The sky was beginning
to turn into a light blue color.
"We
better get you into a crate before sunrise." Xanatos said as he
took off his helmet.
Mizuki
recognized his face from a magazine article she read about
Xanatos' companies. "He definitely
is Xanatos." She thought.
She
followed Xanatos into the jet. Xanatos
took her to the back where
the cargo is stored. She saw a huge
topless crate. Xanatos took Mizuki
to this crate.
"Hop
in." Xanatos said with a wave of
his hand.
"How
long will I be in this crate?"
Mizuki asked as she climbed onto
some smaller crates.
"Three
or four hours. When you wake up from
your stone hibernation,
you'll be at the Eyrie building."
Xanatos said.
Mizuki
got to the top of the crate and carefully let herself into the
crate. "I want to thank you for
getting me out of that God forsaken
place." She said as her talons
touched the bottom.
"I
was trying to fix what Puck messed up."
Xanatos said. "Are you
comfortable?"
"Pretty
much." Mizuki answered from inside
the crate.
"I'm
sure you and the gargoyles will get along just fine." Xanatos
said. When there was no answer, "Mizuki?" Xanatos looked into the
crate and saw a stone statue of a teenage gargoyle.
