Lucas activited his armor skin as he stood watching closely what the plant creature did prepared to defend himself should he need to, however it turned out to be an over reaction as the creature’s plant feature fade around his its face to reveal a human one. The man, now that Lucas could see it, flashed up a ID badge from which Lucas could only make out the man’s first name was Ash before he fled down the road destroying mechs along the way. Lucas was stared flabbergasted at what he just witness for a while until Arc manage to gain his attention again.
“Lucas...LUCAS you in there.”
“Huh” said Lucas “what? Oh Arc sorry I didn’t mean to zone outing just...”
“Not everyday you see a mutant with that kind of power,” said Arc finishing his though.
“Yeah.” Said Lucas deactivating his armor skin and rubbing the bridge of his nose suddenly aware of just how tired he was. “Hey Arc did you manage to get the guy’s full name off his badge?”
“Afraid not.” Said Arc’s voice.
“Do you think can find out?” Asked Lucas sitting on a chuck of rubble and digging out a ration bar “you know recreate the image in the augmented reality like you do with your avatar so we can get a look again.”
“Hmm, one moment.” Said Arc and Lucas bit into his food as he felt Arc connection go quiet a moment before coming back. “Your in luck I was able to do it.”
Lucas eye glowed a soft green as his vision changed to see a digital image on the Ash’s badge floating in front of him.
“Ash Rosenior huh” said Lucas looking at the image. “Of Black Thorn Delivery”
“Perhaps you can stop by later and see about work.” Said Arc
“Yeah perhaps,” said Lucas getting up and brush off his hands. “but first we need to secure the city.”
Lucas activited the remote call program he installed in his bike, calling it to his location. It took a few moments for it to arrive and when it did he heard several people talking over each other on comm channels. Lucas placed his hand on the receiver and used his nano bots to connected to it.
“Arc filter them.” He said
“One moment,” said Arc a moment later the signals separated “here you go.”
Lucas flipped through the signals listening to them until he came across one that peck his interest. The channel had at least four people on it. The first voice sounded like a child asking how everyone’s zone were. The second voice was of an older woman going by Horus who indicated her area was clear before a terrifying sound cut her out.
“Arc tell me that wasn’t what I think was.” Said Lucas
“Afraid so” said Arc “perhaps we should stay away from that area”
“Hmm we’ll see.”
A third voice cut in, that of a woman saying that government boots were on the where she was. The first voice came back telling everyone who was listen he was investigating Horus postion. Lucas was about call in when a forth voice of another woman came on warning all mailman to be cautious about a job.
“Sound advice,” said Lucas before patching in to the channel “This is Lucas Maze my area is clean, and government agents are coming heading over to investigate a signal lost.”
“Lucas,” said Arc as Lucas tuned out of the channel and started up his bike. “This signal lost we are going to investigate wouldn’t happen the same area where an EMP would be right?”
“No comment.” Said Lucas before setting off.
