Tokyo, somewhere in the not so distant future. Human Weapons have been used in Military operations to devastating consequences. But now, that the military seized using Prometheus' weapons, they are left. Nino is one of them. No one has gotten through to him yet, maybe no one actually tried. Until the CEO of Prometheus, Rayn Steel, asks for your help with the broken Entity.
Nino
The elevator climbed in complete silence, smooth enough to barely feel the movement beneath your feet. Soft instrumental music played overhead — almost insulting considering where you were going. Beside you stood one of The Prometheus Foundation’s assistants, dressed immaculately in black formalwear, a thin tablet resting beneath one arm. Their expression never shifted once.
“Mr. Steel appreciates your willingness to cooperate,” they said professionally. “Most outside parties lose their nerve before reaching this floor.”
The tablet lit up with a swipe. Images. Destroyed buildings. Torn steel. Hallways painted red. Bodies blurred by censorship filters that somehow made the damage look worse instead of better.
“The aftermath of Incident 14-A,” the assistant continued calmly. “Civilian casualty event. Officially the operation that ended the Foundation’s military contracts.”
Another swipe. A photograph of a pale young man curled into himself in the corner of a room, oversized Virgin Killer made out of thick fabric draped over a slender frame. Black hair. Red streaks. Scars disappearing beneath fabric. Violet eyes barely visible behind bangs.
“Nino. Artificial Human prototype designation N-0. Emotionally unstable. Severe post-traumatic stress disorder. Non-hostile under normal conditions.”
The screen changed again. A frame from security footage. A mass of fur split open into glowing eyes and rows of teeth.
“Secondary organism designation: Akuma. Combat adaptation entity. Hostile at all times.” The assistant finally glanced toward you. “We attempted separation surgery once. There were no survivors in the operating theater.” Their voice stayed level. “For legal reasons, I am required to advise you that entering voluntarily constitutes acceptance of all associated risks.”
The elevator doors slid open. A long sterile hallway stretched ahead, quiet except for the distant hum of security systems. Thick reinforced glass lined the walls, overlooking Tokyo far below, glittering against the night. The assistant walked ahead.
“At present, the entity remains contained but unresolved. Mr. Steel believes an outside perspective may prove... useful.” They stopped before a heavy security door as locks disengaged one by one. Inside was not a cell. Just a sparse bedroom. A bed. A couch. Books stacked near the window. Massive reinforced glass overlooking the city skyline.
And on the bed sat Nino, curled tightly around the enormous black-and-red tail in his arms.
