Chapter 6: She didnt come out of her quarters for a long time. Rhia was out of touch with the world around her so much that she jumped when she heard someone knock on her door. The door opened and the person she least expected came in her quarters. Lord Alkanphel?! What are you doing here? she said. I heard what happened, he said and hugged her without warning. Rhia turned at least twenty different shades of red when he did that, and he was the only person now that even gave her hugs. I thought you would like a friend to talk to. Thats….very kind of you, she said, her cheeks turning even more red. I wished I knew how to talk about this. How about we start with how you feel about it, he let her go and they sat down in front of her glass cased cabinet. I may not be your parent, but I know that you need to talk about what you did. I feel horrible, she began. Mother always told me that it was a terrible to kill a person without just cause, like protecting a helpless person. How do I justify what I did? He wasnt pointing the gun at Purgstall, the gun was pointed at me. Tears came to her eyes. I didnt have just cause to kill him, and…it felt wrong to take his life. I felt him enter the void. It was like part of my own soul had been ripped apart. It appears that there is another lesson I need to teach you, he said and got up. She watched him, puzzled, as he walked over to her night stand and pick up… Imakarum was walking down a hall in Cloud Gate when he saw two blurs, one white, one violet, zoom pass him and he heard Rhiannon yell, COME BACK HERE!! What the hell was that about? he said and continued walking. Give back my sketch book, Alkanphel! she demanded when she cornored Alkanphel on the level of the meeting hall. Mother gave that to me! Give it back! Okay, he said and handed her the sketch book. She looked at him with absolute puzzlement on her face as she took back her book. Now, think back before you killed that man. Did he not say that he killed his brother? She began to understand where he was going with this. What he didnt tell you is that he killed a number of Zoanoids on the way to where you were. If he had lived, he might have killed more before he himself were executed. I would never have thought of that, she whispered and looked at the floor. This is your lesson, Rhia, he lifted her chin up. You have to move on in life. You cannot continue to live in the past, so starting today, you will begin your training to be a Zoalord, he told her and she bit her tongue to keep herself from objecting. Purgstall will be your mentor, and he will be keeping me and Dr. Barcas updated on your progress. I expect you to have leadership skills by the time we meet again. I hope you do well, Rhiannon. He walked away from her and teleported away, leaving Rhia bewildered and shocked.

Actually, BK, I'm a girl (I don't mean to be rude, so I'm sorry if I sounded rude). And you're very welcome, and I mean it when your work is awesome. I can't wait to see what you'll come up with in the future.

Sorry, LordSpleach. I didn't realize that until you pointed that out. Chapter 5: Rhia returned to Japan with Imakarum and Purgstall the next day. The man that had tried to kill her was a Zeus’ Thunder sympathizer, and now Alkanphel thought his only heiress would be safer in her home country and in the one city that she knew every nook and cranny by heart. Soon after nightfall, the Guyver Gigantic appeared and attacked Cloud Gate. Guyver 3, however, was scouting the building for the main command center. “Are you sure you don’t want help, Mirabilis?” she asked Imakarum before she left the command center. “This task was given only to me, Lady Rhiannon,” he said. “Remember Alkanphel’s orders; you are not to get involved.” “I know,” she said and left with Purgstall. She didn’t say much, but Purgstall had a feeling that the young lady was tracking the movements of the Guyvers through the thoughts of Zoanoids because a smile flickered across her face. When they reached the emergency command center, she said, “The Gigantic unequipped his armor. Guyver 1 is regrouping with Guyver 3 and will soon go up against Lord Mirabilis.” “Have I ever told you that your telepathic abilities scare me?” Purgstall said. “I’ve heard you think it, but not out loud,” she replied. “Is there anything that escapes your telepathy?” “Not much, and no more questions, the fight’s starting,” and the command center shook from an explosion from the top level. The two Guyver’s fell to Shinjuku and Mirabilis followed Guyver 1. Then Aptom the Lost Number appeared. ‘It appears that the newest member has powers nearly equivalent to Alkanphel’s power,’ she thought after Mirabilis destroyed a building with one attack while trying to destroy Guyver 1 and Aptom. She wished she could ignore Alkanphel’s orders and joined Mirabilis; the Guyvers were putting up a good fight against the new Zoalord, even when Guyver 3’s ambush didn’t work. The fight then took to the sky after Mirabilis transformed. “Lord Purgstall,” one of the Zoanoids at the computers said, “there’s a news helicopter heading toward the fight. Shall we radio them to turn back.” “No,” Purgstall said. “This could turn to our advantage.” ‘Indeed,’ Rhia thought. ‘How in the hell is she still alive?!’ she heard a human behind her and she spun on the dot. “Don’t even think about,” she commanded the human and forced him to submit to her. Purgstall turned his chair around and saw what she was doing. “Drop your weapon.” He didn’t have a choice; the Zeus’ Thunder operative dropped his gun and begrudgingly knelt before her and Purgstall. “How did you get past security? Only Zoanoids are allowed here,” she said and mentally forced him to speak. “I posed as my twin brother,” he said. “He was a candidate for Zoanoid processing, and I killed him and took his place. I had no idea the heiress of a Zoalord was still alive.” Her anger grew uncontrollably, and before she knew it, the man’s head twisted completely around and his limp body fell to the floor. Her eyes widened in shock as she felt his life force slip into the void. “Oh my God…” she said and a sense of nausea began to wash over her. Purgstall quickly led her to a trash bin and she threw up. She felt him rub her back and his mind brushed against her mind. ‘Are you alright?’ he asked her. ‘I…think so,’ she replied. ‘I…I had no idea…I didn’t mean to kill him…’ ‘Take a moment to calm down,’ he told her and he returned to his post. “What are you looking at? Return to your posts,” he told the Zoanoids staring at Rhia in shock. ‘What have I done?’ she thought. The fight with the Guyvers and Aptom was over. Mirabilis was still furious that Fukamachi and Makishima were able to give him that slip, but that made him all the more determined to get their Control Medallions. He returned to Cloud Gate and met Purgstall in the emergency command center, and there was a clean-up crew there too. “What happened here?” he asked Purgstall. “Rhia killed a rebel by accident,” he said. “That’s not like her to kill someone,” he said in shock. “What happened?” “She forced the rebel to submit to her before he could fire his weapon here,” he explained, “then she had him tell her and me how he got passed security. After he told us that he killed and impersonated his brother, she became enraged and lost control of her powers.” He sent an image of a man’s limp body on the floor with his head turned completely around. “Is she alright?” ‘She’s growing more powerful,’ he thought. “No, she’s isn’t.” “Where is she now?” “In her quarters, but I would advise to give her some space until morning. She needs time alone.” “Very well, I’ll tend to her tomorrow,” he tried to reach out to Rhiannon mentally, but was repelled by a wall. He saw the wisdom in Purgstall’s advice; she was deeply disturbed by her kill so much that she was using the emotion as a barrier in her mind. ‘I’ll have to report to Alkanphel about this,’ he thought and left the command center.

Awesome, BK!

The wheels are turning! Thanks Toku! Edit: Chapter 4 She had yet to awaken. Barcas saw her wounds heal right before his eyes before any of the other scientists got a hold of her. He couldn’t believe what he saw. Rhiannon had completely healed without any infection before she was examined. He had seen some strange phenomena before, but this was near impossible. Not even a Zoalord had this rapid healing capability! The other Zoalords knew of this and began to question who she really was, and Hamilcar Barcas did not like it when the other Lords questioned their commander. “I have to wonder if our Lord knew of this,” Kurumegnic, the only dark skinned Zoalord, said, “and if he did why he kept it a secret from us all.” “Keep such thoughts to yourself!” Barcas said. “By all means, Doctor,” Jarvil, the Zoalord wearing a turban, said, “the girl could prove to be a threat. If she were to turn against us, then she would be a force to reckon with.” “I hardly doubt a human girl could harm any of us Zoalords,” Kurumegnic said haughtily. “That flat chest sorry girl is as harmless as a fruit fly. All women her age are weaklings after all.” “I wouldn’t say that so quickly, Kurumegnic,” Amniculus said. “Lady Rhiannon is a strong and mature child for her age. By all means, she’s ideal to be a Zoalord.” “She’s bloody sixteen!” Jarvil protested. “I will stand for a sixteen year old, illegitimate, female take the position of a Zoalord! It is unheard of that a female be as powerful as men!” “Had I not known better, Jarvil,” Purgstall said coolly, “I would say that you would rather have an incompetent boy as a Zoalord over a competent woman. I would also point out that you turned it into a gender issue. What’s so bad about a woman being a Zoalord?” “I have to agree with you, Purgstall,” Rentsi said, his black hair covering his right eye. “Women have certain abilities that we men just simply can’t use without strict discipline. In my honest opinion, she would be a more efficient leader than us.” “Explain, Rentsi,” Caerleon said. “Women have been known to be more creative than men, and Rhiannon is no exception to this fact,” he explained. “I’m unsure if you all know of this, but she does have a sketch book with portraits of all of us, including Alkanphel. In the background of the portraits she drew designs that she thought would best suite our personalities, most of them I thought were dead on and some I would never even have thought of before.” “We all appreciate your words on the girl’s mind,” Kahn, an elderly Zoalord, remarked, “but what does art have to do with leadership?” “She sees the world in a different way than we do,” Waferandos said. “I think I understand where Rentsi is going with this; Lady Rhiannon thinks in a different way that we never would consider until the last minute.” “I’m still against a female ascending to the rank of Zoalord,” Kurumegnic said. ‘Sexists,’ Rhia thought in the infirmary. She shut her mind and she heard nothing more of the discussion. She rolled onto her right side and stared into space. Kurumegnic had gotten onto her black list in a matter of seconds along with Jarvil. How the heck was she a flat chest? She had a normal sized chest, so she didn’t see anything wrong there. Sin had always been a good friend to her and he was there when she needed advice from someone other than Barcas. Rentsi had been kind to her and she had shown him her sketch book, an honor that was rarely given to anyone. Purgstall was also a good friend, but she never would think that he would stand up for her. Just thinking about him stirred something in Rhia, something she never felt before. She ignored it; she would think about it later. For now, the man held more respect with her than he did before. As for the rest of the Council, she would have to prove herself loyal to Lord Alkanphel before they would ever trust her.

Guys, I have hit a bad writers block. Rhia has not died, but I need help getting my creative mind back on track. I was thinking about writing a chapter of the Zoalords (other than Alkanphel and Imakarum) having a heated discussion, but I'm not sure about it. Can anyone please help me?!

Ahh. That I can understand.

Mind if I ask a stupid question? I've noticed that some people call what those four Christians did as racism. Can someone enlighten me where the hell that came from? If it were an all black-skin Muslim festival, I might understand. Am I just missing something here entirely?

I'll keep an eye out for it then. In the mean time, here is the next chapter: Chapter 3: For an entire year, Rhia followed Alkanphel across the world. She rarely spoke with the other Zoalords, and she rarely left Alkanphel’s side for long. A good majority of the Council thought that she was growing fond of him. She had to admit, she was attached to Alkanphel. He taught her what it meant to be a Zoalord and he was able to teach her to teleport, which took up a lot of her energy. He took her to various places around the world, showing her what was outside her island homeland. He was the only person that came close to being a father figure to Rhia. “Rhia, there’s someone I want you to meet,” he said to her several days after the first anniversary of Cronos’ take over. “You found the new Twelfth Zoalord,” she said and saw a tall man with long black, wavy hair, a dark visor, and dark Zoalord clothes. “Imakarum Mariblis, once Masaki Murakami. I assume that the Guyvers are still alive?” “Yes, they are,” Mariblis said. “I will be hunting down the Guyvers in Japan.” “With Zeus’ Thunder and the Guyvers running around,” Alkanphel said, “it would be best if you were to stay near a Zoalord at all times.” “Meaning I’ll have to stay in a base until the situation is resolved,” Rhia said. “I understand.” She waited for the two Zoalords to be a good distance away before she began to think. His weariness confirmed what she had felt the past few days around him. He was suffering, and he was worried that it might lead to something permanent. She had noticed that his body wasn’t storing enough energy properly and she had heard from the other Zoalords that he was known to disappear for years without explanation. What it came down to was this: he needed the Guyver Unit in order to recover from his lethargy and stop his hibernation from killing him. He was counting on this new Zoalord to get a Unit before it was too late. ‘I’ll assist Imakarum in anyway I can,’ she decided. A gun shot rang through the corridor and she felt something go through her abdomen. Warm blood dampened her clothes as she fell to her side. She heard noises, but they sounded as though they were far away. Someone shook her, trying to keep her awake, but her vision had already gone black.

That's true. Seeing as the story was inspired by the Guyver manga and Rhia's personality was inspired by you and TW and my friends at school.

Really? I'm glade!

Thanks Toku and LordSpleach!

Watching Bleach and Chibi Vampire.

Chapter 2: Rhia would never have imagined a more fancier place than the one she stood in right now. The only source of light was the giant hologram of Earth rotating over a giant circular table with display hologram projectors built into the reflective surface of the table. To be more precise about it, it was a giant holographic projector unto itself. “Lord Alkanphel,” a man said. “Is this the heiress you spoke of?” She saw the man who was speaking to Alkanphel sitting in one of the twelve giant, stone thrones around the projector. He had dark brown, wavy long hair, pointed ears and dark eyes, and Rhia had to guess that he was half a head taller than Alkanphel. A small portion of his Zoacrystal was visible in the center of his forehead. “Yes,” Alkanphel replied, “this Rhiannon. Rhia, this is Sin Amniculus, one of the Twelve Zoalords.” “A pleasure to meet you, Miss Rhiannon,” Amniculus said. She sensed that he didn’t care about her casual attire, and he was curious to know more about her. “Pleasure to meet you too, Lord Amniculus,” she replied politely. She bowed from the waist up, a custom that she was always expected to follow around the aristocrats. Then she saw Amniculus get up and return the gesture. She was correct about his height, and she also noticed that he was a well built man. ‘He’s a really cool guy,’ she thought and sensed that Alkanphel was amused. “Well, what do you think of the base?” Amniculus asked Rhia. “I’m impressed,” she said. “Are all of Cronos’ bases like this one?” “They’re not as big as this one, but they are just as impressive.” Alkanphel could tell she wasn’t at all interested in the other bases around the world. She was more interested in the Zoalord in front of her. She was trying to understand why she was chosen to be the heir of the Supreme Commander of Cronos. She didn’t know what was so special about herself, and she didn’t know that she would not find it in any of the other Zoalords. ‘All in due time, Rhia,’ he thought. ‘All in due time.’ Amniculus knew that girl, Rhia, was different before Alkanphel introduced her as his heiress. He knew she wasn’t all human, but there’s no way she could be part Zoalord. Why did he still think about that even hours after Alkanphel left with the girl? ‘I have to trust him,’ he decided. ‘If I cannot trust him, then I cannot trust anyone.’ “You said there were twelve Zoalords,” Rhia said as she and Alkanphel walked through the Ararat mountain range in Turkey while dawn had yet to break. Her new violet clothes felt like a second layer of skin, her three pieces of armor on her forearms and abdomen reflected the little light there was in the mountain range, and her dark violet cape rippled in the air as she continued to follow her commander. “Will I meet the rest of them soon?” “Yes, you will meet them very soon,” he replied. “In fact, you’ll be meeting them today.” “Out of pure curiosity: why did you introduce me to Lord Amniculus first? Would it not have been wiser for me to meet them all at once?” “He’s one of the most loyal Zoalords, and he’s probably the only one to treat you so kindly. Some of the other Zoalords are against there being a female heir.” She didn’t comment. She understood why they were against it. They came to a peak that overlooked the mountains when he said, “They’re here.” One by one, the Council of Twelve appeared behind Rhia and Alkanphel. There were eleven at the moment, due to one betraying them. All of them were from different regions of the world. All ten Zoalords bowed to Alkanphel. “The operation was an overwhelming success, Lord Alkanphel,” Amniculus said and Alkanphel turned to face the ten Zoalords. “From this day forth, the planet Earth will bow to the will of Cronos,” Alkanphel said. ‘It appears that I came into play just as they took over the world,’ Rhia summarized. ‘So now the question becomes: What part do I have in all of this?’ --- Toku Warrior, how did you post that chapter? I can't get onto a fanfic site without getting viruses.

Thanks a bunch Toku!

Can you do that for me TW? I would really appreciate it!

Here's chapter 1: http://fav.me/d2wauuf

BK: That was my original thoughts on it, just she didn't get a Unit herself. Instead all her attempts to get one for Alky backfires badly. TW: I see what you mean. I thought I made the prolouge too short... Kenji: We are idea buddies! That is so cool!

That's acually a good idea. Okay. I'll try to get chapter one done soon!

I know all of that, and I will be writing stuff from the manga into the story as it continues. There's going to be the same amout of action here as there is in the manga, maybe a little more comedy here and there as Rhia's attempts to get a G Unit for Alkanphel later on backfires. And for Rhia to be Alkanphel's kid was part of my original idea, and I kinda scared my friends with that idea because she had a tomboy personallity at first.

I know it's small and I'm trying to put chapter one together. I'm currently stuck as to where to start the chapter.

Well, no one on deviantArt will comment on it, so here's the original prolouge I had in mind for my Guyver fanfi: http://fav.me/d2vl6ev I would like to hear some feedback on it, please! DO NOT BE AFRAID OF HURTING MY FEELINGS!!! Go all out if you want!

Wow! The expressions of the characters tell all! Whomever did these is a really good character artist.
