Inside the bunker....

  - So... green? You can hear us and see us but cannot speak, no? *Joy asks the supercomputer, looking around the server room and seeing two cameras pointing at them.*

  Yes, Hunter Joy, I cannot speak directly, only through writing from this computer . This server room is the only pce I can see both of you ; in the rest of the instaltions, I cannot access directly.

  The words that appear on the screen show a clear limit to the actions of this supercomputer, though it is a bit traumatic for Goji due to her... various encounters with robots , mechas , and all that . This computer seems ... pretty calm... or at least she thinks so.

  - So... Green, any idea of what happened here?

  Last records ... an attack happened to the instaltions ... staff and security remaining... almost completely eliminated... enemies... registers... Hollow armors ... of golden color ...

  - Almost... almost... so are there any survivors, Green ? Do you know where they are? *Joy asks the computer as she investigates the papers around it ; most is research about gates and monsters. Given how little time has passed since the world was attacked , all research is welcome.*

  ... Through the server room... to the right... three persons...

  - Thanks, Green. Joy , can you go? People don't react too well when I appear ; they scream and call me a monster because of my tail, and I really don't want to have to expin everything...

  - Yeah, yeah, I will go to see if they really are survivors, but you ask Green some questions about the research and look for anything interesting nearby, okay ?

  - Yeah , no problem . *Joy starts walking through the server room while Goji stands alone in front of the screen.* So, Green ... tell me about the research that you couldn't send towards the HQ, okay?

  Understood...

  The st research in these instaltions was quite interesting for Goji, not specifically because she excels academically, but because of something she is profoundly linked to: the composition of the gates has been discovered ... though no specific countermeasures were developed after this discovery, as they were cut short by monsters. The composition is nuclear in nature but not directly damaging to humans; however, the specific particles emitted by the gates are this new one, Mana... it is curious, at least to Goji - a radioactive monster falling through reality toward a world that has gates open to what are supposedly other dimensions. Other things she discovers are some techniques developed after analyzing corpses of monsters; some hunters were stationed here protecting the facility and helped develop these techniques after some time and advice from Green, who has directly aided in this development. Goji has learned how to make a thin yer around her hands ; it is a bit unstable but would help prevent her from hurting her hands when fighting, and maybe... she can learn new things through this ability. Not long after Goji puts all reted research in a bag, Joy appears with three people behind her . From what Goji sees, there is one young woman with a scientific demeanor, a man from security who seems hurt, and finally an old man who looks like a scientist too... though when they get near and see Goji truly... the reaction isn't the best...

  - What... why did you hit me! *Goji has once again been attacked ; now with a baseball bat, the young woman has hit her in the head.*

  - Y... you had a tail! *Before she can swing again at Goji, Joy stops her.*

  - No, no, she is one of the good guys ; she is good, no monster, okay? She is with me . Goji, take out your identification ! * With a bit of irritation, Goji takes out an identification from within a pocket of her combat jacket. After looking at it and a few moments to calm down, the young scientist girl finally speaks again.*

  - I... I'm so sorry, Ms. Gojira !!! I... it wasn't my intention to swing towards a... a hunter as cute as you! *The young scientist is flustered, and her face turns red as she tries to apologize.*

  - Just, don't swing at me again, okay? What's your name anyway?

  - My name is Thori... I'm so sorry, Miss Gojira.

  - I already told you it's okay. Joy, I'm ready for my part; should we get moving?

  - Yeah, if we all are ready, we should go. But what will happen with Green ? Should we turn it off?

  - It isn't necessary; it will put itself into hibernation and close the door as we go out, so when we someday recover the b, Green will be here...

  - Okay then, Thori and Jonh, help Mr. Rodrick move ; Goji, you go in the front as we move . The vehicle is nearby, but don't get too far from us ; let's get moving!!

  The group starts moving outside the b toward the vehicle. As they exit the bunker, the heavy metal door seals itself behind them, leaving the strangely friendly computer inside waiting to be recimed. The journey through the highway was far from interesting ; silence was complete as the vehicle moved along the road toward the airport. But not long after, the peace came to an end as they crossed through the outskirts of the city. They saw through the window what they feared : thousands of gnolls moving in formation, cleansing the city of any humans. At the far horizon , golden armors shone under the dawning sun...

  - Joy... there are many, no?

  - They are indeed many... the golden armors are the elite of the hollow armors, you know? *As Joy speaks, she starts to increase speed, ignoring the bumps along the path.*

  - And... in Balrogs, how do they compare ?

  - 1/4 though this is purely theoretical ... depends on the person, environment, and all that... and it's kind of bad to count it in Balrogs; you are the only one who has killed one.

  - Well, we'd better not count on our luck then ; there are at least tens of golden armors , I see hundreds of normal ones , and thousands of gnolls ; just go faster...

  - Don't have to tell me twice....

  At that moment, the vehicle was going as fast as it could , Joy driving with a tint of desperation . The road was painful for the two scientists and the one guard, with Thori looking pale as they bounced along the road . When they finally reached the airport , the airpne was there... but gnoll bodies were piled up around the defenses as the group could still hear gunfire going on around... Joy quickly stops close to the airpne, and with Goji, they get out first to transport the civilians inside the pne,before long the two are running around towards the gunfire...
