Gaiden is a Japanese term for a side story. Sometimes the english phrase "Another Story" is used within a Japanese title.~As defined by Wikipedia
Intro: I had a little trouble with the BBcode so it looks a little out of order and has some of the coding in it (too long to fix). I was working this story a while back and I did proofread it so there might br some grammar errors in this story...also there is a charatcer introed later in the story, Vince Omega, he's in sereval of my other stories (none of which are on this site yet) so he isn't just in there as a extra. This is my first fan fic here at PSOWorld...hope you all enjoy it. (also if you see the grammar errors in the story, feel free to point them out, it saves them when proofread this.)
EDIT: Removed code and changed the spacing of the paragraphs.
EDIT: Added code to preserve quotes.
EDIT: Question: Can someone tell me how to keep the apostrophes in this?
EDIT: Changed title to collection of PSO fanfics...meaning I'll add more to this thread.
Announcement: I'll Be editing this real soon, I got rid of the code. Later on I'll remove add quotes and apostrophes
EDIT: Finish change quotes and apostrophes...I'll format later.
EDIT:Paragraphs have been broken for a more lesiure time reading.
EDIT:Format complete...
PSO:Kaiser
During the reign of King Lassic, it was outlawed to practice magic without the consent of the King himself (and the King gave consent to very few.) This law specially targeted a group of magicians who lived by the code of magic, a group known as the Espers. The Espers were lashed at for practice magic and (at times) prosecuted for this.To avoid dealing with the mobs the Espers moved out of Plama to neighboring planets Motavia and Dezoris. Later, four warriors, Alis Landale (later Queen Landale), Odin (a Resistance member and future Supreme Commander of the Plamian army), Mayu (a Musk Cat who would later become a man) and Noah (an Esper who becomes leader of the Esper Society) would defeat the Dark King and free the Algo solar system from his grip. Under the rule of Queen Landale the ban on Magic would be lifted, but a majority of people still held grudges against the Espers, thinking that on the planet known as Dezoris.
The people of Dezoris live under the harshest conditions under King Lassic's rule, coincidental this treatment began when the most of the Esper people had relocated to the ice planet. The prejudge was so bad that the Espers had go in hiding, so they bulit a buliding to live in away from the Dezorians; They called it Esper Mansion. One day, the Dezoris army found this building and launched an attack.The Espers fought back bravely, but they won at a horrible price. Most of the Espers were slain in the process, Noah was infuriated. In his rage he and the rest of the Espers went to the capital of Dezorians and destoryed it. After this they went back to the remains of Esper Mansion and began to rebuild. They reformed the terrian and buried the bodies of the dead with their magic. However this extreme use their gift had dire consequences. Noah, under the stress of exerting his magic fell ill, the rest lost their powers due to over-taxation.
Noah was dying (such exertion had drain him of his life energy.) but he knew he couldn't leave his clan without an able leader, so his called on his most valued student, Lutz, to take over for him. He told Lutz that he would be responsible for leading the next group of heroes who would rise when Darkness returns. He told Ltuz that he must use the cryogenic capsule in the secret room which was in the main chamber, to put him self in suspended animation. He must awaken every ten years and attempt restore the powers of the Espers. When Lutz questioned how master Noah responded, "You'll know in time."
Lutz wasn't the only Esper to retain his powers. Another Esper, by the name of Kaiser, had retained her powers. At the time of the incident she was only four but at that age she knew how to feel pain... and hatred. She hated the fact that the Esper community was frowned upon by the Algo system and she wonder why people hated them so much? She learned of King Lassic and the riots against them; she learned of Queen Landale and wonder why she didn't do anything to stop this? She learned about Master Noah himself and wondered why would they attack someone who saved them all? She learned first-hand about bigotry and prejudice as she made her trips to the city for food. Time and time again people would gawk at her or they would turn their heads to the side and refused to look.
They teased her and degrade her; at times she would cry and wish she wasn't who she was. But one day, things changed. She got sick of all the maltreatment and decided that she would take it any more. The next time someone bullied her, she not only used her magic to put the bullies in their place but she leveled a couple of houses. Sure some people didn't deserve it but so what, they were only getting what they dished out anyway. Besides...She felt better knowing that she was letting out her rage (and that's all that counted anyway, right?) The other Espers had disapproved of her for using her powers for revenge but they couldn't do a thing about it because they had lost their powers. They had to wait for Lutz to reawaken to deal with her, when he did awaken to deal with her, when he diid awaken she was 14 years of age.
Lutz awaken from his slumber; he walks out of the secret room and into the main chamber.When he enters the main chamber another Esper confronts him."Master Lutz," he says with a hint of urgency in his voice "Kaiser has been using her powers for malicious purpose." "What exactly do you mean by 'malicious purpose Rai'?" Rai answers , "Well, lately she has been going into Dezorian towns and destroying building and houses." Lutz asks Rai, "Why do you suppose she has been going into Dezorian towns and destroying buildings and houses." Lutz asks Rai, "Why do you suppose she has been displaying such ill will towards the Dezorian citizens?" Rai answers, "Well I suppose it had it has to do with that awful day. It's poosible that she stills harbors rancor for the Dezorians because of that Light-awful event." Lutz looks puzzled, "How could that be, she was just four when that happened." Lutz and Rai enter the hallway; they stroll towards the lobby. As they walk on they continue talking, Rai looks at Lutz, "Well it was kind of traumatizing for the girl, I mean, losing her parents and all I guess she would feel some anger towards them. Quite frankly I do too." Lutz answered back "As do I but as people of greater understanding we are not out to seek revenge on our former enemies but excel beyond that state.
Master Noah once took revenge upon his enemies upon his and well..." As they enter the main lobby they see the Esper people that have lost their powers. There was once a time when these people would do mediocre tasks with ease via telepathy but now they do everything by physical means."...you see the results." stated Lutz. "Right, right. I to have lost my powers due too Master Noah's haste but I'm sure that..." Rai "...Master Noah meant no harm," finished Lutz. "That is exactly the point I'm trying to make here. Kaiser may think that by destroying Dezo towns that she may help us out but in reality it may only hinder us." Rai looks at Lutz, "I see. In that case I believe you should have a talk with her she wouldn't listen to us because we don't have powers." "'She'll only listen to Espers' she said 'not Half Espers.'," Rai says. Lutz then says, "Fine, I suppose that I should deal with her first anyway.
After that I can concentrate on restoring the students powers." Rai says, "I will lead you to her room." Lutz and Rai make a one-eighty as they go though the hallways of the mansion to the second floor where Kaiser's room lie. Rai knocks on the door. "Kaiser." He knocks again, "Kaiser!" He turns the knob, the door is open. Inside Kaiser's room is a bed decorated with a pink heart covered sheet adjacent to two heart-shaped pillows. The walls were pink and decorated with imaginary animals including an anime-ish dragon with big glassy eyes. The floor was covered with a pink rug, on the left of the room was desk. The desk had a computer (latest invention in Algo) notary pad, some trinkets an alarm clock and a copy of Teen Algo ( You know you're a loser of you don't have Teen Algo, duh.) It was the typical setting of a fourteen-year old girl's room. Rai looks at the room, "She must have left, I'll ask around to see if anyone has seen her." Rai leaves the room, Lutz remains. Lutz walks over to the desk, he picks up the pad. He cycles through the pages until he finds something that catches his eye, it's entitled "Judgement." Lutz to read the paper, "It looks like that she didn't want anyone reading this," he says to himself, "it's written in ancient Motavian language."
He begins to read the passage, "On twenty-sixth of this month (that's today) those people who have taken what was dear to me will suffer the same fate. I plan to delivery the blow to the capital of this planet. They will know fear as they are in the same state as our dead." Lutz places a finger on his lips, "Hmm, rather cryptic." Rai reappears in the room, "Shune said that she seen Kaiser and she said that she was going to the capital to "see the sights." I don't know what that means but..." Lutz says, "I do...thanks Rai." And in an instant Lutz vanishes thanks to a spell known as Ryuker.
He reappears on the Elevated Ice Towers (as they're called,) in the distance he finds Kaiser looking over the town (probably saving the moment before she demolishes the town.) Lutz calls out to her, "Kaiser!" Kaiser turns around and sees Lutz. "Lutz!" she says as she runs over to him. She embraces him, he does so as well. "What are you doing here?" she says as she flings her long black her from the front of her face to the side. From a distance you would swear they were lovers, they both were nearly the same age standing in an embrace.
Lutz face turns from pleasant to solemn, "I'm here to stop you from making a huge mistake." Kaiser suddenly stops smiling, "So, they told you about my behavior huh?" Lutz nods head, "You know you don't have to go though with this." Kaiser steps back from Lutz, "No, I do. Do you know how it feels to lose everything.? Lutz says," I'm a Esper too I know how you feel about..." Kaiser interrupts, "You know I knew you going to say that, this goes beyond that. It's about our identity, our society." Kaiser walks back over to the edge of the cliff. It over looks the grand city, it thrives with life and is busy with hovercars floating by as the neon lights flash the cars onward. The lights reflect upon Kaiser's face, "Don't you see, as they evolve we devolve. They destroyed our home, killed our people and scorn us with no reason.
With our powers gone do you know what that means to them?" Lutz is silent, "Victory Lutz, Victory. You see they succeeded Lutz, they destroyed us. Me and you are the only Espers left." Lutz approaches Kaiser, "Having powers doesn't make you an Esper Kaiser, come back to the mansion, you can help me restore the powers to the rest. You'll see that they haven't destroyed us. Kaiser simply laughs, "No. I want them to know Lutz, I want to know suffering like we have known." Lutz raises his cane, "Then I have no choice but to stop you."
The cave is dark and frigid; a sheet of ice surrounds the two on the walls of the circular platform. Lutz rushes towards Kaiser, she does likewise. The two engage in melee combat, going at with whatever. Lutz strikes with his staff, Kaiser parries and kicks into Lutz's abdomen. Lutz grabs the foot and flips Kaiser around in mid-air, she lands on her face. She teleports off the ground and reappears above Lutz's head. A summons a barrage of fireballs directed at Lutz, Lutz summons an equal amount of snow.
The spells cancel each other; Kaiser expected this and hits Lutz with a shoulder drop. Lutz staggers back in pain as Kaiser teleports and reappears in front of Lutz, Lutz then grabs her and sends a current of electrical energy into her body. Kaiser is struck, her body submits. Lutz then binds her in a magical bond, before the bond is complete Kaiser asks Lutz "Why?" Lutz answers, "Because I didn't want you to be a murder, I didn't want that on your heart." Just when the bond is complete Lutz says you will be released form this bond in ten years. Maybe that will cool you off. Five minutes later Lutz returns to the mansion, Rai asks, "How did it go?" Lutz said, "I had to bind her for ten years." Rai said "Ten years, isn't that a bit harsh." Lutz said "Perhaps, but it will give her time to cool off."
Five years later
Kaiser is discovered in the cave by some local Dezorians, they took her suspended body to the city and placed in the museum. Think discovered an ancient Dezorian, before the green pigment kicked in.
Five years later
Lutz awakens and goes off in search of Kaiser, he goes to the spot where he fought her and couldn?t find her. With her powers binded Lutz could not track her down. He searched with great effort but failed his efforts in vain. He never forgave himself for the mistake he had made.
One thousand and nine-hundred and ninety years later
The cold climate of the planet and the even colder temperature of the now dead museum delayed the effects of the spell drastically. She was due to stay in that condition for another two hundred years but then... Kaiser's body begins to shake, a loud roar can be heard and Kaiser begins to scream. ...the bond is broken.
Through shear will power Kaiser has broken the spell, if it was for the climate of this planet she would have gotten out the bond the second she was placed under it. Kaiser awakens in a strange place, she feels cold. She looks down at herself to make a discovery...she hasn't the faintest article of cloth on her body (pervs!) She looks around the room for some kind of clothing, she walks around and discovers the museums office. Inside the office were four unlocked lockers, one had a uniform. It was the uniform that Dezo police would wear but she didn't know that. She quickly robes into the uniform and heads out of the room. She eventually finds her way to the exit, when she emerges she finds herself in the behemoth of all cities. The steel towers broke into the sky themselves seeming to reach the heavens. The sky was filled with hovercars, all kinds that she hasn't seen before. The city is loud and flashy with even more neon lights then before. There were new businesses that she hasn't seen before around.
There was the teleportation center and the clone shop, the photon weapon shop and something called the trekker booth. She walked over the trekker booth and asked him with year it was. The first thing she noticed about him that he wasn't a Dezorian, he was Palmian (or so she thought.) The trekker looked at her with a bit of a sarcastic look and said "Are you kidding?" She said, "No sir, I'm not." The trekker says, "Aw come on, you know it's the space year 362.25. Quit joking around!"
She gasped and held her hand to her gaping mouth, how could Lutz imprison her for two thousand years! The trekker looked at her, "Hey aren't you suppose to be guarding the presidential place, you know the president will be coming here on some official business so you better look sharp." Her mission, she had fought about her mission. It may be two thousand years later but she can still made them suffer the way her people has. "You're right," she said, "I better get back to work." Kaiser thought that by posing as a guard she can get close to the president then assassinate him. That would throw the planet in a state of turmoil. How, how was she going to get that close she thought. "Hey," a guard says, "are you new around here?" She turned to meet her interrogator with a pleasing smile, "Yes, you see I was just assigned here." The guard turns back into the direction of the shops, "Well stay sharp rookie, if the boss catches you daydreaming like that he'll fire your ass. The boss wants everything to be prefect for the president's arrival; the prez has to go to Coral to establish trade routes with Dezoris. If he succeed it will be the first trade route between galaxies, it's some sort of big fuckin' deal or whatnot." Kaiser asks, "What's the launching pad" I don't see one around here." The guard says, "It's suppose to be in the back. Anyway if you want to keep your job, go tree (stand still), understand?" Kaiser says, "Right."
Simple enough, all she had to do was wait until the president comes, make up some phony excuse about why she has to leave her post and make her way onto the ship. It wasn't long until the president arrived. The president made his way past Kaiser and the guard into the building; two other guards came face to face with Kaiser and the guard she was with. "We're here to relieve you." That was all they said. "Don't have to tell me twice," the guard said and he was off. Kaiser proceeded to walk into the building, but one of the guards stopped her. "Where are you going. We have relieved you," he said. She turned around the face him and began to jump up and down on her feet while bunching them together as if they were holding something.
She bit on her lips and said, "Come on, let me go. I've been standing here all day. Can't a girl take a tinkle nowadays?" The guard let her go, "Fine,go." She smiled and said, "Thank you" and she run into the building and into a nearby hallway with the impression that she had to go badly.
When she was out of the guard's sight she had stopped her act. Now she had to find the launching site, she looked at the directory, according to it she had to make a turn to the left and walk straight down. She does so and discovers more guards at the entrance, she could just wrap into the rocket but most likely someone will see her. She could become invisible but it takes to much energy, she saw a loading ring next to the entrance and it hit her, she could sneak onto the rocket via suitcase (you see she was tall but she small as well.) She need a distraction, went into the bathroom near the entrance and dropped a firebomb into one of the toilets, she walked out and went over to a safe distance. Kaboom, the water from the toiler in the bathroom came flooding out of the room.
The guard went into the room to see what the problem was, she went over to the suitcases, empty it and threw its contents in the trash (it was just some dirty mags of some Dezo harlotets) and placed herself in the suitcase, locking it with her magic. The guard came back, she could hear them from outside s but from inside their voice sounded muffled. "some...threw...blow the hole fu...damn him!" One guard said. Someone picked up the suitcase, "light...what's in...man," she heard the woman say. The suitcase was scanned, it didn't detect her, and make its way onto the ship.
Minutes later the sound of engines firing and the propellment of the rocket pushing the suitcase back assured her that she was making her way into space. When the movement stopped she opened the suitcase with her magic, she fell out gasping for air. Kaiser was in the cargo area, the door was shut tight. For know all Kaiser could do was wait until the ship stopped. She was alone with her thoughts, why would Lutz do her like this" Why two thousands years...didn't he care. Why did the other allow him to do this? Why her? Nobody cares. Nobody cares were the words that would echo in her head as she cried herself to sleep.
She woke up to the sound of a thump, the ship had landed. Kaiser quickly turned herself invisible, the cargo door opened. A male and female had entered to take the luggage out. Kaiser made her way outside, she floated to the top of the ship and placed herself into position. She could see the president talking with two men, the same two guards that she had meet were acting as his bodyguards. She points her finger at the head of the prez, and was about to fire but she hesitated. Was she about to commit murder, could she commit murder? Is that what Lutz tried to make her realize, that she shouldn't kill.
While she was thinking this, the two "guard" had placed a gun at the president's head. POP POP POP, the prez was no more. She was surprised, she didn't think they were hitmen. The four men had gone into the ship, more firing was heard...then silence. The men had come out with a bunch of weapons in their hands, they brought a Landrover around and started to raid the ship. Kaiser had to get out of here and fast. Looking in the horizon of the alien planet she saw a town. She decided to warp into the town and get away from this crazy place. She made her way into the town, she warped into the middle of the town. "Opps," she thought, "these people may have not seen magic before." To her surprise, however, nobody was in shock and awe of her feat. She looked around to find a clothing store (the uniform she wore had a "unique" smell to it), she found one. She turned herself invisible to check it out, three more people had ported into the town before she went in the store.?
The store was shop for Hunter grabs, they had all the latest grabs for all different classes. One section caught her eye, it was entitled "Force grabs", she had no idea what a "Force" was but the designs looked a little like the Esper gowns she had back at the mansion. She didn't have any money so took some off the rack (while invisible) and ported to the "little girl's" room. The room was empty, she locked the door and visitized herself back into sight. She was standing in front of the mirror when did this, what she saw made her drop her clothes to the floor. She had aged, she was a bit taller and looked more mature. She guessed she had aged about three years or so. She shook the shock factor off and began to change into one of the grabs. This one was a long flowing black gown with ornate designs. She liked the look and ported out of the store, she arrive at the back of the shop. "Wait a minute," she thought, "I need something to carry this stuff in." She ported back to the ship, the men were gone so she went inside and grabbed a suitcase (she made sure not the touch the dead bodies.)
She packed her stuff and teleported back to town. She teleported into town with suitcase in tow, she had placed the remained of the clothes into the case. She thought about something, how was she going to get home from here? Did she even have a home to go to? How was she going to live? Then she saw something, the Hunter's Guild. During her time Hunters were freelance mercenaries so she hoped that their job hasn't changed too much. She walked into the Guild; a receptionist greeted her. "Hi, welcome to the Hunter's Guild where we enrich your life. How can I help you?"
Kaiser looked at the receptionist and asked, "Uh, could I register as a hunter?" The receptionist said, "So you want to be a hunter, what class are you applying for Hunter, Ranger, Force." She was baffled, what is the difference? She didn't know that hunters had different classes. "Could you tell me what is the difference between the three?" The receptionist almost laughed, "Are you serious?" Then she looked at Kaiser's face, she could see that she was serious. "Oh, so you really don't know?" she said. "I'm from a different planet," Kaiser says. "Oh, you must be from Maul (the neighboring planet to Coral). Fine then I'll tell you difference between the classes.
A Hunter is a person skilled with bladed weaponry like swords or knives (Kaiser knew that.) A Ranger is a person skilled with guns, and a Force is skilled in techniques. Techniques are magic if you didn't know that." Kaiser thought to herself, A Force instead of Esper, it seems that the Coral have their own way of doing magic. With her ability as an Esper she could easily mimic the techs that the Coral people can use.? She said, "I'm applying to be a Force." The receptionist handed her an application and said, "Here, fill out this form and you'll be a Force after that."
Kaiser looked surprised, "That's it, I thought that I had to be tested or something." The receptionist said, "No, since we only provide job opportunities to Hunters we don't bother testing them. Hunters are responsible for themselves when they are applying for a Hunter's license so if they are properly prepare it's their own fault.? "Oh." Kaiser said. Kaiser filled out the application and returned it to the receptionist. "Now you are a official Hunter. Good luck!"
For a few weeks Kaiser did some jobs and saved up some money to spend some nights in some hotel (without sneaking in of course.) Later on Kaiser learned that Coral saw slowly dying and the people were leaving for a new planet called Ragol. A ship named Pioneer 1 left three months ago and reported that it was safe for habitation. Another ship named Pioneer 2 was boarding citizens to go to Ragol. Kaiser decided to board onto this ship, there was no use on staying on a dead planet anyway. Kaiser bought an apartment on the ship, and lived there for the next two years.
Kaiser was a high ranking Hunter now by the time Pioneer got to the planet and the incident had happened. She was watching the news when here reports of the Gran Squall, a "pleasure boat", was actually a military ship. It's only survivor was a young girl who, according to speculations, was being held against her will. The whereabouts of the renegade group, who captured her, Dark Saints, was believed to be on Ragol's third moon.
Kaiser immediately got up from her chair and began to set foot outside to free the girl. She didn't like the fact that this girl was being held against her will, so she decided to set her free herself. Why not, her powers had been restored and besides she knew how it felt to be isolated. Kaiser took her Speedster (a mini spacecraft) down to the third moon, Trim. It didn't take her long to find the base. She was surprised to find another person here as well, he wore a black Hunter's jumpsuit and had short gray hair but he looked young.
She walked up to the man, preparing to attack. The man turned around and began to attack her. She dodged his trust and parried with her cane, she missed. She used a lightning strike on him but he dissipates the attack with his barrier. Her then strikes at her again with his katana, she dodges and says, "It'll take more than that to defeat me Dark Saint." The man jumps back and says, "Dark Saint" I'm not a Dark Saint." At this time Kaiser had already thrown a fireball at the man, the man yells "Wait!!!" Kaiser stops the fireball and dispels it. "Then who are you?" she says.
The man walks over to her and says, "I'm Vince Omega, and you are?" Kaiser says, "Kaiser. What are you doing here if you aren't with the Dark Saints?" Vince says, "I'm trying to free that girl, I knew something was weird about them when first took that job to find the girl in the first place. What are you here for?" Kaiser says, "The same. Look if we're going to free that girl we certainly aren't going to do it standing talking now are we?" Vince says, "You're right, we should just go about starting fighting right?" Kaiser says, "Right", she didn't know Vince was being sarcastic.
Vince says, "Wrong because we'll get caught. Look if you want to save the girl you're going to need a map of the facility at least. ...Hand me your arm." Kaiser looks at him, "Why?" Vince says, "I'm giving you a copy of the map though your data link." Kaiser hand Vince her arm, Vince downloads the map into her data link. "Now open your map." She does, Vince traces a pathway with his finger. Vince says, "To get to the holding cell we need to by pass security, the vents just happen to lead to a room nearby so if we take this path here we'll get to her without alerting them.? Kaiser says, "Are you're sure it will work?" Vince says, "I've been in the business for a while now, I know this will work. Let's go." Vince and Kaiser make it around the back way of the complex; they entered the building though the exhaust shaft.
The exhaust shaft leads into the venation ducts, Vince and Kaiser crawl though the duct, with no difficulty ("Ow, you're foot is in my eye." "Sorry") well almost no difficulty. They made they way into the storage room, they dropped onto the crates in the room. Kaiser said, "Wait here." and disappeared. She reappeared in the room, "It's all clear, I took care of the guards." Vince said, "I was going to use these smoke bombs...oh well." Kaiser and Vince made it to the girl's holding cell; she was unconscious. Vince looks at Kaiser, "They must had put her out because they were going to move her. We got here just in time."
Vince goes over to the girl and picks her up. "Come on let's pick her up and go though the..." Kaiser makes a big hole in the wall and begins to blast her way out of the complex. "...vents. So much for stealth." Vince yells to Kaiser, "Cover me!" as he makes his way to the ship. Kaiser fight over the army of Dark Saints while retreating to the ship. Vince places her in his ship, draws his Varista, and fires at the Dark Saints. "Get in your ship, now!" Vince says. Kaiser says, "What about you?" Vince says, "I'll be fine, go!" Kaiser jumps into her ship, starts it, and turns it around to face the Dark Saints.
She fires into the group giving Vince enough time to jump into his ship and head off to his ship. Kaiser follows. Kaiser and Vince make it to Solido, they talk in the living room. Kaiser says, "What are you going to do with her?" Vince says, "Her family has been searching for her. I'll return her to them. Kaiser, you and me make a great team. How would you like teaming up with me on this other case I got going." Kaiser says, "Thanks but no, I rather work alone." Vince says, "I understand." Vince walks Kaiser over to the exit port, Kaiser says, "I guess this is good bye." Vince says, "Wouldn't say that.
Who knows, we might see each other again." Kaiser says, "Yeah, maybe." Kaiser drives off in her Speedster thinking she helped make a positive difference. After years of hate and frustration she felt at ease, even if Noah didn't mean for her to be trapped for two millennia she was glad that she was now. She can finally put the past behind her and focus on a new future...as a Force and not a Esper.

PSO:Kaiser
During the reign of King Lassic, it was outlawed to practice magic without the consent of the King himself (and the King gave consent to very few.) This law specially targeted a group of magicians who lived by the code of magic, a group known as the Espers. The Espers were lashed at for practice magic and (at times) prosecuted for this.To avoid dealing with the mobs the Espers moved out of Plama to neighboring planets Motavia and Dezoris. Later, four warriors, Alis Landale (later Queen Landale), Odin (a Resistance member and future Supreme Commander of the Plamian army), Mayu (a Musk Cat who would later become a man) and Noah (an Esper who becomes leader of the Esper Society) would defeat the Dark King and free the Algo solar system from his grip. Under the rule of Queen Landale the ban on Magic would be lifted, but a majority of people still held grudges against the Espers, thinking that on the planet known as Dezoris.
The people of Dezoris live under the harshest conditions under King Lassic's rule, coincidental this treatment began when the most of the Esper people had relocated to the ice planet. The prejudge was so bad that the Espers had go in hiding, so they bulit a buliding to live in away from the Dezorians; They called it Esper Mansion. One day, the Dezoris army found this building and launched an attack.The Espers fought back bravely, but they won at a horrible price. Most of the Espers were slain in the process, Noah was infuriated. In his rage he and the rest of the Espers went to the capital of Dezorians and destoryed it. After this they went back to the remains of Esper Mansion and began to rebuild. They reformed the terrian and buried the bodies of the dead with their magic. However this extreme use their gift had dire consequences. Noah, under the stress of exerting his magic fell ill, the rest lost their powers due to over-taxation.
Noah was dying (such exertion had drain him of his life energy.) but he knew he couldn't leave his clan without an able leader, so his called on his most valued student, Lutz, to take over for him. He told Lutz that he would be responsible for leading the next group of heroes who would rise when Darkness returns. He told Ltuz that he must use the cryogenic capsule in the secret room which was in the main chamber, to put him self in suspended animation. He must awaken every ten years and attempt restore the powers of the Espers. When Lutz questioned how master Noah responded, "You'll know in time."
Lutz wasn't the only Esper to retain his powers. Another Esper, by the name of Kaiser, had retained her powers. At the time of the incident she was only four but at that age she knew how to feel pain... and hatred. She hated the fact that the Esper community was frowned upon by the Algo system and she wonder why people hated them so much? She learned of King Lassic and the riots against them; she learned of Queen Landale and wonder why she didn't do anything to stop this? She learned about Master Noah himself and wondered why would they attack someone who saved them all? She learned first-hand about bigotry and prejudice as she made her trips to the city for food. Time and time again people would gawk at her or they would turn their heads to the side and refused to look.
They teased her and degrade her; at times she would cry and wish she wasn't who she was. But one day, things changed. She got sick of all the maltreatment and decided that she would take it any more. The next time someone bullied her, she not only used her magic to put the bullies in their place but she leveled a couple of houses. Sure some people didn't deserve it but so what, they were only getting what they dished out anyway. Besides...She felt better knowing that she was letting out her rage (and that's all that counted anyway, right?) The other Espers had disapproved of her for using her powers for revenge but they couldn't do a thing about it because they had lost their powers. They had to wait for Lutz to reawaken to deal with her, when he did awaken to deal with her, when he diid awaken she was 14 years of age.
Lutz awaken from his slumber; he walks out of the secret room and into the main chamber.When he enters the main chamber another Esper confronts him."Master Lutz," he says with a hint of urgency in his voice "Kaiser has been using her powers for malicious purpose." "What exactly do you mean by 'malicious purpose Rai'?" Rai answers , "Well, lately she has been going into Dezorian towns and destroying building and houses." Lutz asks Rai, "Why do you suppose she has been going into Dezorian towns and destroying buildings and houses." Lutz asks Rai, "Why do you suppose she has been displaying such ill will towards the Dezorian citizens?" Rai answers, "Well I suppose it had it has to do with that awful day. It's poosible that she stills harbors rancor for the Dezorians because of that Light-awful event." Lutz looks puzzled, "How could that be, she was just four when that happened." Lutz and Rai enter the hallway; they stroll towards the lobby. As they walk on they continue talking, Rai looks at Lutz, "Well it was kind of traumatizing for the girl, I mean, losing her parents and all I guess she would feel some anger towards them. Quite frankly I do too." Lutz answered back "As do I but as people of greater understanding we are not out to seek revenge on our former enemies but excel beyond that state.
Master Noah once took revenge upon his enemies upon his and well..." As they enter the main lobby they see the Esper people that have lost their powers. There was once a time when these people would do mediocre tasks with ease via telepathy but now they do everything by physical means."...you see the results." stated Lutz. "Right, right. I to have lost my powers due too Master Noah's haste but I'm sure that..." Rai "...Master Noah meant no harm," finished Lutz. "That is exactly the point I'm trying to make here. Kaiser may think that by destroying Dezo towns that she may help us out but in reality it may only hinder us." Rai looks at Lutz, "I see. In that case I believe you should have a talk with her she wouldn't listen to us because we don't have powers." "'She'll only listen to Espers' she said 'not Half Espers.'," Rai says. Lutz then says, "Fine, I suppose that I should deal with her first anyway.
After that I can concentrate on restoring the students powers." Rai says, "I will lead you to her room." Lutz and Rai make a one-eighty as they go though the hallways of the mansion to the second floor where Kaiser's room lie. Rai knocks on the door. "Kaiser." He knocks again, "Kaiser!" He turns the knob, the door is open. Inside Kaiser's room is a bed decorated with a pink heart covered sheet adjacent to two heart-shaped pillows. The walls were pink and decorated with imaginary animals including an anime-ish dragon with big glassy eyes. The floor was covered with a pink rug, on the left of the room was desk. The desk had a computer (latest invention in Algo) notary pad, some trinkets an alarm clock and a copy of Teen Algo ( You know you're a loser of you don't have Teen Algo, duh.) It was the typical setting of a fourteen-year old girl's room. Rai looks at the room, "She must have left, I'll ask around to see if anyone has seen her." Rai leaves the room, Lutz remains. Lutz walks over to the desk, he picks up the pad. He cycles through the pages until he finds something that catches his eye, it's entitled "Judgement." Lutz to read the paper, "It looks like that she didn't want anyone reading this," he says to himself, "it's written in ancient Motavian language."
He begins to read the passage, "On twenty-sixth of this month (that's today) those people who have taken what was dear to me will suffer the same fate. I plan to delivery the blow to the capital of this planet. They will know fear as they are in the same state as our dead." Lutz places a finger on his lips, "Hmm, rather cryptic." Rai reappears in the room, "Shune said that she seen Kaiser and she said that she was going to the capital to "see the sights." I don't know what that means but..." Lutz says, "I do...thanks Rai." And in an instant Lutz vanishes thanks to a spell known as Ryuker.
He reappears on the Elevated Ice Towers (as they're called,) in the distance he finds Kaiser looking over the town (probably saving the moment before she demolishes the town.) Lutz calls out to her, "Kaiser!" Kaiser turns around and sees Lutz. "Lutz!" she says as she runs over to him. She embraces him, he does so as well. "What are you doing here?" she says as she flings her long black her from the front of her face to the side. From a distance you would swear they were lovers, they both were nearly the same age standing in an embrace.
Lutz face turns from pleasant to solemn, "I'm here to stop you from making a huge mistake." Kaiser suddenly stops smiling, "So, they told you about my behavior huh?" Lutz nods head, "You know you don't have to go though with this." Kaiser steps back from Lutz, "No, I do. Do you know how it feels to lose everything.? Lutz says," I'm a Esper too I know how you feel about..." Kaiser interrupts, "You know I knew you going to say that, this goes beyond that. It's about our identity, our society." Kaiser walks back over to the edge of the cliff. It over looks the grand city, it thrives with life and is busy with hovercars floating by as the neon lights flash the cars onward. The lights reflect upon Kaiser's face, "Don't you see, as they evolve we devolve. They destroyed our home, killed our people and scorn us with no reason.
With our powers gone do you know what that means to them?" Lutz is silent, "Victory Lutz, Victory. You see they succeeded Lutz, they destroyed us. Me and you are the only Espers left." Lutz approaches Kaiser, "Having powers doesn't make you an Esper Kaiser, come back to the mansion, you can help me restore the powers to the rest. You'll see that they haven't destroyed us. Kaiser simply laughs, "No. I want them to know Lutz, I want to know suffering like we have known." Lutz raises his cane, "Then I have no choice but to stop you."
The cave is dark and frigid; a sheet of ice surrounds the two on the walls of the circular platform. Lutz rushes towards Kaiser, she does likewise. The two engage in melee combat, going at with whatever. Lutz strikes with his staff, Kaiser parries and kicks into Lutz's abdomen. Lutz grabs the foot and flips Kaiser around in mid-air, she lands on her face. She teleports off the ground and reappears above Lutz's head. A summons a barrage of fireballs directed at Lutz, Lutz summons an equal amount of snow.
The spells cancel each other; Kaiser expected this and hits Lutz with a shoulder drop. Lutz staggers back in pain as Kaiser teleports and reappears in front of Lutz, Lutz then grabs her and sends a current of electrical energy into her body. Kaiser is struck, her body submits. Lutz then binds her in a magical bond, before the bond is complete Kaiser asks Lutz "Why?" Lutz answers, "Because I didn't want you to be a murder, I didn't want that on your heart." Just when the bond is complete Lutz says you will be released form this bond in ten years. Maybe that will cool you off. Five minutes later Lutz returns to the mansion, Rai asks, "How did it go?" Lutz said, "I had to bind her for ten years." Rai said "Ten years, isn't that a bit harsh." Lutz said "Perhaps, but it will give her time to cool off."
Five years later
Kaiser is discovered in the cave by some local Dezorians, they took her suspended body to the city and placed in the museum. Think discovered an ancient Dezorian, before the green pigment kicked in.
Five years later
Lutz awakens and goes off in search of Kaiser, he goes to the spot where he fought her and couldn?t find her. With her powers binded Lutz could not track her down. He searched with great effort but failed his efforts in vain. He never forgave himself for the mistake he had made.
One thousand and nine-hundred and ninety years later
The cold climate of the planet and the even colder temperature of the now dead museum delayed the effects of the spell drastically. She was due to stay in that condition for another two hundred years but then... Kaiser's body begins to shake, a loud roar can be heard and Kaiser begins to scream. ...the bond is broken.
Through shear will power Kaiser has broken the spell, if it was for the climate of this planet she would have gotten out the bond the second she was placed under it. Kaiser awakens in a strange place, she feels cold. She looks down at herself to make a discovery...she hasn't the faintest article of cloth on her body (pervs!) She looks around the room for some kind of clothing, she walks around and discovers the museums office. Inside the office were four unlocked lockers, one had a uniform. It was the uniform that Dezo police would wear but she didn't know that. She quickly robes into the uniform and heads out of the room. She eventually finds her way to the exit, when she emerges she finds herself in the behemoth of all cities. The steel towers broke into the sky themselves seeming to reach the heavens. The sky was filled with hovercars, all kinds that she hasn't seen before. The city is loud and flashy with even more neon lights then before. There were new businesses that she hasn't seen before around.
There was the teleportation center and the clone shop, the photon weapon shop and something called the trekker booth. She walked over the trekker booth and asked him with year it was. The first thing she noticed about him that he wasn't a Dezorian, he was Palmian (or so she thought.) The trekker looked at her with a bit of a sarcastic look and said "Are you kidding?" She said, "No sir, I'm not." The trekker says, "Aw come on, you know it's the space year 362.25. Quit joking around!"
She gasped and held her hand to her gaping mouth, how could Lutz imprison her for two thousand years! The trekker looked at her, "Hey aren't you suppose to be guarding the presidential place, you know the president will be coming here on some official business so you better look sharp." Her mission, she had fought about her mission. It may be two thousand years later but she can still made them suffer the way her people has. "You're right," she said, "I better get back to work." Kaiser thought that by posing as a guard she can get close to the president then assassinate him. That would throw the planet in a state of turmoil. How, how was she going to get that close she thought. "Hey," a guard says, "are you new around here?" She turned to meet her interrogator with a pleasing smile, "Yes, you see I was just assigned here." The guard turns back into the direction of the shops, "Well stay sharp rookie, if the boss catches you daydreaming like that he'll fire your ass. The boss wants everything to be prefect for the president's arrival; the prez has to go to Coral to establish trade routes with Dezoris. If he succeed it will be the first trade route between galaxies, it's some sort of big fuckin' deal or whatnot." Kaiser asks, "What's the launching pad" I don't see one around here." The guard says, "It's suppose to be in the back. Anyway if you want to keep your job, go tree (stand still), understand?" Kaiser says, "Right."
Simple enough, all she had to do was wait until the president comes, make up some phony excuse about why she has to leave her post and make her way onto the ship. It wasn't long until the president arrived. The president made his way past Kaiser and the guard into the building; two other guards came face to face with Kaiser and the guard she was with. "We're here to relieve you." That was all they said. "Don't have to tell me twice," the guard said and he was off. Kaiser proceeded to walk into the building, but one of the guards stopped her. "Where are you going. We have relieved you," he said. She turned around the face him and began to jump up and down on her feet while bunching them together as if they were holding something.
She bit on her lips and said, "Come on, let me go. I've been standing here all day. Can't a girl take a tinkle nowadays?" The guard let her go, "Fine,go." She smiled and said, "Thank you" and she run into the building and into a nearby hallway with the impression that she had to go badly.
When she was out of the guard's sight she had stopped her act. Now she had to find the launching site, she looked at the directory, according to it she had to make a turn to the left and walk straight down. She does so and discovers more guards at the entrance, she could just wrap into the rocket but most likely someone will see her. She could become invisible but it takes to much energy, she saw a loading ring next to the entrance and it hit her, she could sneak onto the rocket via suitcase (you see she was tall but she small as well.) She need a distraction, went into the bathroom near the entrance and dropped a firebomb into one of the toilets, she walked out and went over to a safe distance. Kaboom, the water from the toiler in the bathroom came flooding out of the room.
The guard went into the room to see what the problem was, she went over to the suitcases, empty it and threw its contents in the trash (it was just some dirty mags of some Dezo harlotets) and placed herself in the suitcase, locking it with her magic. The guard came back, she could hear them from outside s but from inside their voice sounded muffled. "some...threw...blow the hole fu...damn him!" One guard said. Someone picked up the suitcase, "light...what's in...man," she heard the woman say. The suitcase was scanned, it didn't detect her, and make its way onto the ship.
Minutes later the sound of engines firing and the propellment of the rocket pushing the suitcase back assured her that she was making her way into space. When the movement stopped she opened the suitcase with her magic, she fell out gasping for air. Kaiser was in the cargo area, the door was shut tight. For know all Kaiser could do was wait until the ship stopped. She was alone with her thoughts, why would Lutz do her like this" Why two thousands years...didn't he care. Why did the other allow him to do this? Why her? Nobody cares. Nobody cares were the words that would echo in her head as she cried herself to sleep.
She woke up to the sound of a thump, the ship had landed. Kaiser quickly turned herself invisible, the cargo door opened. A male and female had entered to take the luggage out. Kaiser made her way outside, she floated to the top of the ship and placed herself into position. She could see the president talking with two men, the same two guards that she had meet were acting as his bodyguards. She points her finger at the head of the prez, and was about to fire but she hesitated. Was she about to commit murder, could she commit murder? Is that what Lutz tried to make her realize, that she shouldn't kill.
While she was thinking this, the two "guard" had placed a gun at the president's head. POP POP POP, the prez was no more. She was surprised, she didn't think they were hitmen. The four men had gone into the ship, more firing was heard...then silence. The men had come out with a bunch of weapons in their hands, they brought a Landrover around and started to raid the ship. Kaiser had to get out of here and fast. Looking in the horizon of the alien planet she saw a town. She decided to warp into the town and get away from this crazy place. She made her way into the town, she warped into the middle of the town. "Opps," she thought, "these people may have not seen magic before." To her surprise, however, nobody was in shock and awe of her feat. She looked around to find a clothing store (the uniform she wore had a "unique" smell to it), she found one. She turned herself invisible to check it out, three more people had ported into the town before she went in the store.?
The store was shop for Hunter grabs, they had all the latest grabs for all different classes. One section caught her eye, it was entitled "Force grabs", she had no idea what a "Force" was but the designs looked a little like the Esper gowns she had back at the mansion. She didn't have any money so took some off the rack (while invisible) and ported to the "little girl's" room. The room was empty, she locked the door and visitized herself back into sight. She was standing in front of the mirror when did this, what she saw made her drop her clothes to the floor. She had aged, she was a bit taller and looked more mature. She guessed she had aged about three years or so. She shook the shock factor off and began to change into one of the grabs. This one was a long flowing black gown with ornate designs. She liked the look and ported out of the store, she arrive at the back of the shop. "Wait a minute," she thought, "I need something to carry this stuff in." She ported back to the ship, the men were gone so she went inside and grabbed a suitcase (she made sure not the touch the dead bodies.)
She packed her stuff and teleported back to town. She teleported into town with suitcase in tow, she had placed the remained of the clothes into the case. She thought about something, how was she going to get home from here? Did she even have a home to go to? How was she going to live? Then she saw something, the Hunter's Guild. During her time Hunters were freelance mercenaries so she hoped that their job hasn't changed too much. She walked into the Guild; a receptionist greeted her. "Hi, welcome to the Hunter's Guild where we enrich your life. How can I help you?"
Kaiser looked at the receptionist and asked, "Uh, could I register as a hunter?" The receptionist said, "So you want to be a hunter, what class are you applying for Hunter, Ranger, Force." She was baffled, what is the difference? She didn't know that hunters had different classes. "Could you tell me what is the difference between the three?" The receptionist almost laughed, "Are you serious?" Then she looked at Kaiser's face, she could see that she was serious. "Oh, so you really don't know?" she said. "I'm from a different planet," Kaiser says. "Oh, you must be from Maul (the neighboring planet to Coral). Fine then I'll tell you difference between the classes.
A Hunter is a person skilled with bladed weaponry like swords or knives (Kaiser knew that.) A Ranger is a person skilled with guns, and a Force is skilled in techniques. Techniques are magic if you didn't know that." Kaiser thought to herself, A Force instead of Esper, it seems that the Coral have their own way of doing magic. With her ability as an Esper she could easily mimic the techs that the Coral people can use.? She said, "I'm applying to be a Force." The receptionist handed her an application and said, "Here, fill out this form and you'll be a Force after that."
Kaiser looked surprised, "That's it, I thought that I had to be tested or something." The receptionist said, "No, since we only provide job opportunities to Hunters we don't bother testing them. Hunters are responsible for themselves when they are applying for a Hunter's license so if they are properly prepare it's their own fault.? "Oh." Kaiser said. Kaiser filled out the application and returned it to the receptionist. "Now you are a official Hunter. Good luck!"
For a few weeks Kaiser did some jobs and saved up some money to spend some nights in some hotel (without sneaking in of course.) Later on Kaiser learned that Coral saw slowly dying and the people were leaving for a new planet called Ragol. A ship named Pioneer 1 left three months ago and reported that it was safe for habitation. Another ship named Pioneer 2 was boarding citizens to go to Ragol. Kaiser decided to board onto this ship, there was no use on staying on a dead planet anyway. Kaiser bought an apartment on the ship, and lived there for the next two years.
Kaiser was a high ranking Hunter now by the time Pioneer got to the planet and the incident had happened. She was watching the news when here reports of the Gran Squall, a "pleasure boat", was actually a military ship. It's only survivor was a young girl who, according to speculations, was being held against her will. The whereabouts of the renegade group, who captured her, Dark Saints, was believed to be on Ragol's third moon.
Kaiser immediately got up from her chair and began to set foot outside to free the girl. She didn't like the fact that this girl was being held against her will, so she decided to set her free herself. Why not, her powers had been restored and besides she knew how it felt to be isolated. Kaiser took her Speedster (a mini spacecraft) down to the third moon, Trim. It didn't take her long to find the base. She was surprised to find another person here as well, he wore a black Hunter's jumpsuit and had short gray hair but he looked young.
She walked up to the man, preparing to attack. The man turned around and began to attack her. She dodged his trust and parried with her cane, she missed. She used a lightning strike on him but he dissipates the attack with his barrier. Her then strikes at her again with his katana, she dodges and says, "It'll take more than that to defeat me Dark Saint." The man jumps back and says, "Dark Saint" I'm not a Dark Saint." At this time Kaiser had already thrown a fireball at the man, the man yells "Wait!!!" Kaiser stops the fireball and dispels it. "Then who are you?" she says.
The man walks over to her and says, "I'm Vince Omega, and you are?" Kaiser says, "Kaiser. What are you doing here if you aren't with the Dark Saints?" Vince says, "I'm trying to free that girl, I knew something was weird about them when first took that job to find the girl in the first place. What are you here for?" Kaiser says, "The same. Look if we're going to free that girl we certainly aren't going to do it standing talking now are we?" Vince says, "You're right, we should just go about starting fighting right?" Kaiser says, "Right", she didn't know Vince was being sarcastic.
Vince says, "Wrong because we'll get caught. Look if you want to save the girl you're going to need a map of the facility at least. ...Hand me your arm." Kaiser looks at him, "Why?" Vince says, "I'm giving you a copy of the map though your data link." Kaiser hand Vince her arm, Vince downloads the map into her data link. "Now open your map." She does, Vince traces a pathway with his finger. Vince says, "To get to the holding cell we need to by pass security, the vents just happen to lead to a room nearby so if we take this path here we'll get to her without alerting them.? Kaiser says, "Are you're sure it will work?" Vince says, "I've been in the business for a while now, I know this will work. Let's go." Vince and Kaiser make it around the back way of the complex; they entered the building though the exhaust shaft.
The exhaust shaft leads into the venation ducts, Vince and Kaiser crawl though the duct, with no difficulty ("Ow, you're foot is in my eye." "Sorry") well almost no difficulty. They made they way into the storage room, they dropped onto the crates in the room. Kaiser said, "Wait here." and disappeared. She reappeared in the room, "It's all clear, I took care of the guards." Vince said, "I was going to use these smoke bombs...oh well." Kaiser and Vince made it to the girl's holding cell; she was unconscious. Vince looks at Kaiser, "They must had put her out because they were going to move her. We got here just in time."
Vince goes over to the girl and picks her up. "Come on let's pick her up and go though the..." Kaiser makes a big hole in the wall and begins to blast her way out of the complex. "...vents. So much for stealth." Vince yells to Kaiser, "Cover me!" as he makes his way to the ship. Kaiser fight over the army of Dark Saints while retreating to the ship. Vince places her in his ship, draws his Varista, and fires at the Dark Saints. "Get in your ship, now!" Vince says. Kaiser says, "What about you?" Vince says, "I'll be fine, go!" Kaiser jumps into her ship, starts it, and turns it around to face the Dark Saints.
She fires into the group giving Vince enough time to jump into his ship and head off to his ship. Kaiser follows. Kaiser and Vince make it to Solido, they talk in the living room. Kaiser says, "What are you going to do with her?" Vince says, "Her family has been searching for her. I'll return her to them. Kaiser, you and me make a great team. How would you like teaming up with me on this other case I got going." Kaiser says, "Thanks but no, I rather work alone." Vince says, "I understand." Vince walks Kaiser over to the exit port, Kaiser says, "I guess this is good bye." Vince says, "Wouldn't say that.
Who knows, we might see each other again." Kaiser says, "Yeah, maybe." Kaiser drives off in her Speedster thinking she helped make a positive difference. After years of hate and frustration she felt at ease, even if Noah didn't mean for her to be trapped for two millennia she was glad that she was now. She can finally put the past behind her and focus on a new future...as a Force and not a Esper.
