[Demo HQ, GA base]
"How are the upgrades progressing?" Tenack asked moving himself back to his desk, choosing not to sit but instead stand meeting Dr. Von'Crogsgel eye to eye.
"Smoothly, however that does bring up the reason for my visit." All Tenack could do was raise an eyebrow at the scientist. Many of the main setbacks that had plagued the upgrade of the Demo equipment was the hunt for a bettter energy source. DrkNrgy was still quite powerful however many groups did have coutners to it. Even the Suits of the GA had special DrkNrgy destroying rounds, a gesture Tenack knew meant they had their eyes on him. "We want to bring the Endeavor in and started on her Early."
"What? Take the Flagship out of the skies while already two thirds of our airfleet is in the yards?" Only a handful of airships patrolled the skies of Gaia far few that Tenack would like. Taking away the power and the authority that the Endeavor presented would be a real punch to their strength.
"The Endeavor is an old ship, oldest you have. It needs to be upgraded and repaired much of the quick repairs wont last much longer. Besides no one has the air power to challenge you."
"How long?"
"A few months."
"Very well, is there anything else?"
"Yes, we finished with your personal HOUND unit"
"Oh?" Taking a seat Tenack leaned back as Dr. Von Crogsgel clapped his hands ushering in an assistance carrying a metallic case. The case was set before Tenack on his desk as the Dr. and asssitance gave a small bow before departing.
"Enjoy, Colonel Acki."
Running his fingers over the case a ping of excitement ran through Tenack. Popping the latches off a small hiss came from within the case as the lid was slowly lifted. Bathed in a blue light the gauntlet of the HOUND suit sat inside, colored in black green florescent tubing and circuits ran the length. Picking it up Tenack couldnt help but smile as he ran his fingers over it. Connecting it to his left forearm he could feel the power of the DrkNrgy contained with in, he could also feel the power of something else contained within the device. The thrill of such power send a tingle through his spine.
"They can keep their super human powers, give me the power of industry and technology any day."
