Cyclone Defender: Episode 01 – “Oumyou Kaibutsu Jinzouningen Seisakusho”
Private Chamber, DugalCorp Headquarters
Guise (B): Sparks…vector sigma…cybernetic gods…robotic medics…folded space for mass conversion…
Guise (B): …but no damn instructions! Is it too much to ask for a simple “how to” on building giant war…I mean peace-keeping robots to help me spread my message of World Peace under my tyrannical rule?!
Guise (B): There must be something somewhere out there, some great oracle of all knowledge. Hmm, that’s it!
Guise (B): “Gi-ant War…hehehe…Ro-bot Buil-ding In-struct-ions”. That oughta do it. Bah, No results found for “Giant War Robot Building Instructions”.
Guise (B): Screw it! Everybody knows the best robots are always made by other robots, or provided by alien beings and floating heads. I’ll just have to use my robot servants that I got…
Guise (B): …in an untelevised story! Hollywood hack, baby!
Meanwhile, several miles below
Essential Cybernetic Science Department, DugalCorp Headquarters
FS1-D23-HUD: So, everybody gather round for the team photograph! Come on, it’s fun!
FC1-D23: Is this really necessary?
FS1-D23-U1: HUD, you’d tell me if anyone was doing rabbit ears behind me right?
FS1-D23-U8: Hehehe.
[beep-beep-beep]
FC1-D23: Hold up guys, I’ve got an incoming call. Damn, Caller ID says it’s the top office.
Guise (B): Ah, Formation Control Unit (Mark 1), Department 23, good to find you are still operational. I have an urgent mission for you. I require you to build me a giant robot prototype!
Guise (B): Now, Cybernetic Electronics and Computerized Parapsychology have been working on schematics for you to work from and the Industrial Robotics wing have milled the parts, it’s up to ECS to assemble the project and host the test drive. It’s supposed to be very much kick ass, as well as combining top of the line AI and high yield batteries, it’s supposed to have supernaturally tapped powers that feeds directly through it’s weapon systems.
Guise (B): Hell-drawn Abyssal Cyclone Shield, Demonic Wings of Fury and a devastating multi-phaser armament called the Hades Cascade. Not to mention the Penance Missiles.
Guise (B): Because, of course the main thing is to have a theme for any mecha, and animal-based weapons are so overdone these days.
Guise (B): Oh, and make sure your Highly Useful Documentation unit monitors and feeds everything. I want to know how you are progressing throughout.
FC1-D23: We have to keep HUD here? Is this really nec…
Guise (B): Yes, just do it.
FC1-D23: Yes, sir.
FS1-D23-HUD: Ok, I’m done. Unless you want to do video diaries or make a robotic love tape…I have Arcee’s number, well, I don’t, but we could spray paint one of the guys pink…
FC1-D23: Actually, the boss wants you to stick around to record us actually working.
FS1-D23-HUD: Really? Do I get to be part of a CREW? Do I have to join a union? Can I have Friday off?
FC1-D23: Just shut up and follow me.
Not Much Later…
FC1-D23: So, that’s the plan. We’re to construct a giant robot for the fleshy head of this organisation. It’s to be equipped with devastating weaponry and all manner of pretentiously named devices that do very little besides beep.
FS1-D23-HUD: And I get to record it! I’m a teamplayer!
FS1-D23-U3: What about the AI system?
FC1-D23: Unstated. Don’t concern yourself, I don’t think we’ll be needing to borrow Visual Basic for Dummies from the IT section again. We should have enough time to prepare our resources before arrival of the component pieces, everything may have been milled but they have to transfer through depart…
Shuuhaijin Yuki: Hai! Um, I mean Hi.
FC1-D23: WHAT THE…! Where the hell did you come from?
Shuuhaijin Yuki: Internal Mail Delivery. Sacred ceremonial letter opener not enough of a give away?
That was awesome! My friend Ak and I did something similar when we were room mates except we did stop motion movies with Legos instead. When you get fabrication of the mecha down to a science put me down for one as well. I could certainly put it to good use.
I’d have loved to have done stop motion, except I lack three things that are useful for making those types of movie. 1) Patience, 2) Tripod or some manner of keeping continuous angle, 3) Ability to not knock down the bloody stuff just by looking at it.
Part two should be around later today.
XD, this is gonna be fun.
Yeah stop motion definitely takes patience but when you see your Stormtroopers fighting ninjas, knights, Jedi, and pirates it’s all worth it!
To hell w/ that; I’m modeling my fight scenes in Maya. XD
Dan, I’d rather have ninja stormtroopers vs jedi knights, but that’s just me!
Dio, hell yeah.
Pirate ninjas versus Jedi Zombies? Wait….that doesn’t even make sense.
In a Lego world it all makes sense,especially if you add alcohol to the mix!
I’d prefer Ninja Zombie Stormtroopers with Sith abilities vs Pirate Jedi Cyborgs (with lightsaber cutlass and peg leg)
Sweet dreams ARE made of these. ^^
