The car engine slowly rumbled as Akio pulled over to the curb and parked the car. Giving the handbrake a pull he sat there in the car with the stereo quietly sounding it's rhythmic tunes and contemplated his future actions. He had decided he was going to do this, and knowing that he wasn't going to be alone gave him some sort of comfort. Turning the key he heard all noise and music suddenly end as he stepped out of his car and walked towards his house.

No one was home when Akio entered and he proceeded up towards his room where his laptop sat on the table. Pressing the power button he watched the machine load up onto the homepage screen, then proceeded to navigate himself towards "The Hack" webpage where he saw the infamous intro text.

[color=green]> Enter The Hack
> Input Username _[/color]

He typed in his username, hit the enter button and witnessed the screen turn to it's brilliant light before hearing that familiar popping sound. Akio blinked, and within that fraction of a second his laptop was replaced with the two devices that he saw the previous night. These items laid there on the surface of the table, hovering and giving a slight pinging sound as they begged for him to acknowledge their existence. His hand leaned over and grasped the knuckle buster, holding them tight within his fists.

[i]"These are pretty cool,"[/i] he thought to himself as he looked over them admiring the smooth glossy finish. They had a sleek and sharp finish but was absent of any pointy edges that could cause damage. On the inside of the grips was a red glowing button positioned near his thumb. He tapped the button, and heard a whirring charge up sound as a pair of cannons began to construct themselves underneath his forearms. These cannons seemed to appear digitally as if coded into existence and when fully complete the trimming lit up to form a iridescent, red glow. A small ignition source could be heard as the open ends seemingly fired up into a low level, heated light source.

"Freaken hell! This is like some sweet arse Mega Man shit!!!" blurting out his excitement like a child. Letting his excitement get a hold of him he lifted his arm towards the hallway and gave a squeeze of the trigger. An explosively loud [b]*KATHUMP*[/b] sound rang through the house as a shell exploded on the far wall. The wall itself ripped open with a hole towards the outside world and showered the area in pixel like debris and smoke. Noise pollution, air pollution... it didn't really matter considering the amount of damage that the structure had taken from the single shell.

Akio moved over towards the point of impact and assessed the damage that he had created. He kneeled down and looked at the charred surfaces, noticing all the jagged edges that were left from the blast. That is before some simple text appeared within his glasses like a Heads up Display.

[color=violet]> No Target Found...[/color]

As he looked out towards the horizon he noticed a beam of energy fire up towards the sky in the direction of the Ai International building and the text within his glasses removed itself from existence. The building wasn't too far away but it would still take him some time to arrive at his chosen destination.

"Like moths to a flame..."

With those words he stood up and proceeded down the stairwell and towards the light source. He had no idea what he would be presented with, but with the two cannons within his grasps he felt some sense of safety.
