"So, how'd you like the fight Uzui?" I asked.

"I've fought better. Interesting to see how it fights though."

"Where'd you learn to fight like that?" asked Naru.

"I had a teacher who taught me the basics. Everything else I created."

"That's amazing." she said.

"Thanks. HAHAHA!" he said before laughing.

"Alright, enough messing around. What are we going to do with this guy?" asked Yoruichi.

'I remember the ship flies away once the Predator dies, so it's best to keep him alive. Now, the only problem is Naru. We won't be able to do the optional mission with her here nor will I be able to use my nanites. I need to message Yoruichi to knock her out so we can continue.'

Bringing up the chat with my mind, I messaged the group my plan.

Guts: Why do we have to knock her out?

Matt: Because she can't see what we're going to do next. Don't worry, you and Yoruichi can stay near her to keep her safe while we finish the missions.

Ciri: I agree. Knowing too much can be a burden.

Matt: Good, as soon as we're done here, do it Yoruichi.

Yoruichi: Roger that, handsome.

"Are you guys ok-" was all she said before being knocked unconscious by Yoruichi who caught her before she hit the floor.

"Jeez, I didn't even see you move." I said.

"Flash step is my specialty after all."

"Okay, Yoruichi will stay here with Naru and Guts while we try to find the ship. I just need to communicate with its equipment and we should be good to go."

Before I did anything else, I went over to the Predator and used my nanites on its bio helmet. The data and schematics I got back from it were amazing. The technology years ahead of ours would easily let me break into the military sector.

I was also able to piggyback off of the helmet to find the location of the ship and turn off its autopilot. Unfortunately, I would need to communicate with it directly to get the data on it, but that would come soon.

"The autopilot is off. We can kill it now." I said.

"Can we give it an honorable death?" asked Ciri.

"If you want to, go for it."

"Thank you." she said before making her way to it and telling it to mimic her.

It seems the Predator was able to understand her intentions and sat cross-legged. Ciri then took out her sword and executed it one merciful strike.

"An honorable end for a worthy foe." I said before using my telekinesis to bring all of its equipment to me.

Using my nanites to communicate with all of its equipment once again cemented how advanced of a civilization the Yautja are. A bomb capable of wiping out 300 city blocks all held within a device the size of a pencil case. Not to mention a weapon with the right data for me to make a railgun, a medkit for me to study, and a gas powerful enough to melt flesh off in seconds. I was getting more and more excited by the minute for the data on the ship.

"Does anyone want anything as a souvenir or for their use?" I asked the group.

"Can I have the mask pretty please?" asked Amelia.

"Sure, I already got the data for it and there might be more in the ship so go for it."

"Yay! Thanks, everybody." she said before putting it on.

"How do I look?" she said while posing at which we all laughed.

"Nice. Okay, let's go to the ship, they should be expecting something so let's be careful."

~~

After running for about 15 minutes, we arrived at where the ship was camouflaged.

"Okay, the ship is right in front of us. First, I'll use my invisibility suit to get near the ship then I'll use my nanites to take control of it. Once I do, I'll open a hatch so we can go in. Then we'll clean up inside. Got it?"

"Got it." x3

Creating my stealth suit, I hurried towards the ship before placing my hand on it. If I thought the technology from the Predator's equipment was insane, this was on a whole other level. The schematic and data for every inch of the ship was downloaded into my brain. Not to mention I was able to access the system controlling the entire ship to look into the database they had available.

Information about the universe at large and many of the sentient species the Yautja had hunted. As well as a lot of other information about the galaxy at large. I struck it big this time.

'With this information, I can advance humanity's technology in no time. Thoughts for later.'

Snapping out of the daze the information transfer had put me in, I controlled the ship to open a hatch and turn off any recording devices and signal transmitters. Undoing my stealth suit, I signaled to the group to enter with me.

"Did you get anything interesting?" asked Ciri.

"Like you wouldn't even imagine. But we can discuss later, right now we have more important things to do." I said before we walked into the ship with caution, though now that we had no one to hide our powers from, we could act more freely.

Still connected to the ship, I counted how many Yautja were on the ship.

"There's 4 Yautja on the ship. Turns out this is a smaller clan, so they sent fewer Yautja on the hunt." I said to the group.

"Good! That means we each fight one, and I call dibs on the strongest one!" said Uzui.

"Don't worry, they're all equally experienced hunters. None are Elites though, but I think that's for the best considering they are the Elites of their species."

"Tch, oh well. I'll settle for these small fish then."
