Thread: The Half Project: Scattered Shards

Lilith snarled at the clone merges that stood before them, ready for a battle.

Ozias shrugged. "Once. This is the first time I've ever crashed this, and it was 300 years since I've driven it, you can't blame me. Well, you can, but..."

O-II and Ozias extended their elbows. "You killed them, and now you're paying the price!" Calix readied his blades, Raine hauled her shield from her back, Sophia charged an Ice Beam in each hand, and Indigo grabbed two seeds from his back and threw them at T-II and A-II, causing an explosion.

A-II laughed. "May I remind you that you're on our property!?" Dozens of Hunters and Merges poured out of the lab. "You feeling confident now..?"

The [MM] prepared for battle coming out of the vehicle

From the smoke the merges caused, stood a sillhouette of a person. The smoke cleared up, revealing a teenager wearing a white jacket, he turned toward the group,

"Long time, no see, everyone."

Anthony poked his head out the vehicle's window. "Shawn!?"
"So you remember him... But do you remember me?" A voice asked. Turning towards it, Anthony noticed someone atop the vehicle.
"You!?"
"Yes. You know, I lost my identity because of you..."

"Now, I'd prefer if we left. I don't want to see anyone get hurt." Shawn said.

"Ha ha! We have a lot to do. So you know what, I'm gonna give you a huge, open window to decide to stop attacking us. Okay? Of course, I'm joking." Ozias sank into the shadows, and one by one, reappeared behind his opponents, slashing at them, before sinking back into the shadows and appearing back at his original position. Sophia used Blizzard, Indigo used Seed Bomb, Zero used Dark Void, Raine used Rock Slide, O-II used Helping Hand and Calix used Stealth Rock against the doors.

The strange Merge grabbed Anthony's head and slammed him into the ground. "Begin the attack!" Nearly a hundred Merges appeared from out of nowhere, alongside a few military vehicles. "You're outmatched, outnumbered and surrounded."

Oddly enough, a smile began to spread across Ozias' face as he and [the rest of PJ-M] withdrew their attack stances. "Surronded, obviously. Outnumbered, sure. But outmatched? Well, all I'm saying to that is... Now!" Everything suddenly vanished, reappearing randomly at other places on the planet. Localia rubbed her hands together.
"Ha ha! I guess that means we can walk straight through."

"Except for the fact you still have to deal with me!" The stranger shouted, firing a huge ball of flames at Karli, melting half of her. "And my colleagues."

Ozias blocked the attack. "Sorry, 300 years, my memory's off, do I know you?"

"No... But I know you all too well, Ozias. A year ago, I was taken, stripped of my identity, infused with another's memories, used as a vessel..." The Merge changed appearance, their face revealing itself.

It was Anthony's face.

"Another clone I presume," Jet said.

"Ah! So an A-II... -II. Or An-II? Or... whatever. It's a shame that you're a little late to be Anthony. He's not even fully Klinklang Merge anymore. So ha! Ozias, would you...?" Ozias asked.
"I'd be happy to," O-II replied, drawing his blades, "What do ya say, for old times sake?"
