The [Late] Arrival of the Beast

[beast_of_scripture]

[Exactly one week after the strange encounter at Paradigm City, the strange golden haired boy that appeared to help out there has finally found his way to an actual Unity Group base, after making a strange detour to Hong Kong. His machine seems to have disappeared since the incident with the Kaiju and he's sopping wet from traveling through the rainstorm earlier. On top of that, his entire outfit is in tatters and compared to his rather dapper appearance when he first met folks from the Unity Group, he now looks more like a washed up hobo.]

Oh, so this is where the base was...I thought it was supposed to be a mansion. Maybe the directions I got from that Negotiator were incorrect...

[He doesn't seem too bothered by it.]

Preparation for apocalypse

"Brave men and women of Unity Group - from now on, the Pan Pacific Defense Corps are in your debt."

Marshall Pentacost has something to say, as he shows the end result of the Hong Kong defense operation. Wrecked Jaegers, destroyed buildings, chaos everywhere.

"Crimson Typhoon won't be moving for a long time. Herc's arm needs months of healing. Almost the whole bay is covered in kaiju blue."

"But!"

"It could have been much worse. Thanks to your quick reaction, the Hong Kong shatterdome suffered no casualties. If you were not there, I know many good people wouldn't live to see the light of next day. You have my deepest thanks."

"As we enter final stages of the plan to deal with Kaiju once and for all, I have no delusions that only a single Jaeger would be able to defend Hong Kong by itself. Until we're ready, I offer the services of Cherno Alpha and its pilots. They will be able to do more good in Unity Group than sitting around an empty Shatterdome."

Contacting the Shatterdome research crew results in one excited Hermann.


"I knew it! I was positive my calculations were correct, and I was right."

The mathematician walks around quickly with his cane. Then, he's suddenly deadly serious.

"The Kaiju won't stop with just one double event. We can expect more coming - no, not just double! Triple events, maybe more... there will be no end to it, unless something is done fast."

"Also, Geiszler would like to say something."
