Flagrant Disregard: Serai looks for clues in Amridad (06-04-2403)

Following leads on a cold case was a rather difficult task, especially when the crime was committed in a world that technically no longer existed.  As Serai arrived in the area which was once Cuba, he accessed the information which they had gathered on the case prior to the fusion.  As he did this, he made his way to the location where the small mercenary hideout once was.  As he arrived, he noted that the small covert installation was no replaced with a much larger, visibly military installation, causing Serai to pause before he went through with his plan.

After some seconds, Serai would power up his Crimson Eyes and attempt to scan the inside of the building, but to no avail as his scanning beams seemed to be unable to actually pass through the reinforced walls of the facility.  Regardless of that, he did manage to map the outside of the facility fairly well, allowing him to move onto the second phase of his plans.  A wave of Khaaos shot towards the facility now in an attempt to disrupt whatever sensory jammers which they had in place.  Once again, this proved futile given the sheer strength of the facility, only serving to disrupt the external scanning and defensive mechanisms present with the Khaaos electrical storm.

Unbeknowst to Serai however, his primary scanning wave had peaked the interests of the small channeler group on the inside of the facility, but his second manuever, the Khaaos storm pushed them over the edge, causing them to sound the alarm and begin to scan for his location.  Given the residential nature of the area, it was impossible for them to actively fire on Serai without drawing the attention of the local authorities in a way that would be to their detriment, so they were no forced to send out guards to actively deal with the situation.

Back on the outside, Serai was busy scanning the facility once again, realising that his Khaaos storm had done little to disrupt the equipment blocking his scanning waves.  What he did notice however was an outflux of channelers from the facility.  Serai quickly powered up his form now as the channelers approached him, using his crimson eyes to track the movement of two stealth users and a single speedster.

As Serai got into a shifting back stance, he would track the speedster primarily, allowing him to dodge the initial strike before turning to launch a counter attack.  Unfortunately he would be too slow, being hit before his counter strike could near its target, knocking him backwards while the two stealth users close in on his location.  A quick follow up barrage from the speedster would keep Serai off his feet before he exploded the area around him with a wave of his deadly combination of energies.  Khaaos expanded through the battlefield in conjunction with his dehabilitating energetic viruses which instantly went to work on his opponent’s defensive capabilities.

This served to be enough to give Serai some space, allowing him to power into his Soul Rush instantaneously to boost his outputs before concentrating a powerful blast of energy in his hands.  Serai would manage to dodge another attack from the speedster now as he took to the air, dropping the energy bomb to engulf the area in his Soul Eater energy type which was specifically coded to target the kinetic energy of his opponents.

This slowed the speedster considerably, but didn’t help him against the two stealth users, one of whom quickly pierced his defensive aura with an attack that stunned the Psionic.  Luckily, the second stealth user, being primarily a melee combatant would be slowed long enough to prevent him from counter attacking instantly, giving Serai just enough time to snap out of his stunned state and perform his Colossal Force, picking the channeler out of the air and slamming him viciously into the ground.  Serai would exploded into his Omega Drive now as he pumped energy into his Soul Eater, doing his best to completely stop his opponents from moving.  Unfortunately, trying to apply this energy to three channelers made that affect nigh impossible.

Once again he would find himself victim of a physical barrage from the speedster, forcing him to utilise his drunken dragon style to dodge a few of the attacks before clawing into his opponent’s arm and slamming him into the ground.  Unfortunately, another stunning shot would prevent him from following up and this time, the second stealth user would score with his attack.  A powerful knife hand strike would pierce Serai’s defense and his form, connecting with his stomach and causing blood to rush out as Serai now fell to his knees.  Was he not Omega Driven, he would have reverted instantly, but in this state he could hold on a bit long, just enough to pour his energy into his Finish Dragon.

Serai would vanish from his location, reappearing with a powerful reverse punch to the ranged stealth user, obliterating his form with the attack.  Unfortunately, this would cause his two other opponents to Omega Drive as well before they both pushed their energy into Omega Blitzes as rushed Serai.  His final attempt to avoid reversion would be to Omega Flash out of the area, pouring all of his speed and temporal control abilities into the ability.  This would allow him to clear the area by at least a kilometre before he would be forced to power down and find a hiding place where he could contact his partner Roun and request assistance.

Outcome: Serai has confirmed that there are channelers in the facility and that they are military based, but he was otherwise unable to gain information on his lead.
