As Jed walks into the room he views as 10-40 Be-ru’s are exercising, running, lifting heavy weight, sparring each other with melee weapons, and shooting their guns or any sort of range weapon to multiple moving targets. Some look at Jed with curiosity and confusion but ignore him and let him pass through. As he looks around he sees the testing area, clearly with a sign on top, and 2 jacked Be-ru’s guarding it equipped with armor and weapons with a metal transparent door right beside them. As Jed gets closer to the door, he gets stopped by them.
“State your name, and purpose on being here,” as the right Be-ru speaks up with a threatening tone.
“I am Jed, and I was allowed by the Captain to be able to use this room to test out some stuff,” as I look up and speak up, trying to not sound threatened by them. ’’Holly, they are taller and bigger than average,’
“Let this creature go in, this is that creature the Captain allowed to have access in this chamber,” as the left Be-ru letting him know
“If the Captain says it’s allowed, then I will open the door for you,” as the right Be-ru turns around and puts his hand over a scanner, allowing it to open it, ”you may now enter,” as they both move aside to let me go through
“Thank you,” as I walk right in, and the door immediately closes as soon as I go in.
The room was full of computers and technology that didn’t seem to fit in with the ship. I see lots of folders stacked on top of each other, probably weapons and gadgets that were tested, and have information about them. I ignore it for now, as I see a container filled, of what I presume, failed weapons and gadgets that probably malfunctioned or just broke and are probably being thrown out or being fixed later.
“Hey Evo, could you tell what these weapons are?” as I take a closer look and differentiate what they are
“According to my analysis, they are prototype weapons, gadgets, or armor that were broken, malfunctioned, or were too dangerous to be used and tested. So now they are now in this container, I must warned you don’t touch it as the container is hooked into an invisible alarm, that is linked to the entire ship, and will let everyone know,” Evo warns
“Alright then guess I won’t interact with it, I wasn't planning to anyway, but you can scan them right? Since it’s technically not being touched,”
“You are right on that, but it will take a couple of minutes to figure out what these are and what there use were, before I start making them,” as Evo starts preparing to scan the objects
“Alright Evo, do your thing, while I look at the available weapons that are already made and attached to the suit,” as Evo starts to scan the container, while I bring up the folder that contained all of the weapons and attachments, in the suit.
“Alright let’s see,” as I look around files filled with different kinds of tools and weapons, ”Oh here’s one, a Photon Cutter, quite a interesting name, it’s designed to cut through the toughest metals easily, and does not make any sound when used. That is convenient and useful, could maybe attach it near my hands of the suit, since almost everything on me is very loud. Now enough of that I want to see some guns and not know how to use them,” as I scroll through until finding a weapon similar to a double barrel shotgun.” Huh, I think this was influenced by humans, since it’s called the DPS, Double Pulse Shotgun, which fits. Anyway’s it says here it uses charged particles and energy as ammo, and can go through metal’s quite easily and the more ammo there are the faster it charges up, oh that is very exploitable. Now let’s just close this, and check up on Evo.” as I close the file.
“Hey Evo, are you done scanning them,” as I hear a ping
“I finished scanning the container a few minutes ago, and was identifying the parts and remaking and at the same time upgrading them, to be more powerful, safe, and usable.”
“Alright then, but I got 2 weapons/tools that I found interesting, well for me, to test out,” as I tell him the names and the description of what I am referring to.
“Good choice sir, I will attach them to the suit now, and start testing,” as Evo starts to assemble them into the suit. I could actually hear and feel the suit getting the items built into it.
“What the hell was that?” as it stops a couple of seconds later.
”Sorry sir, I needed to grow myself to make the 2 weapons you requested to have, since I didn’t have enough mass to make them physically outside the suit and if I didn’t I would have to take a bits of your armor that you are wearing and make them that way, but I don’t think you wanted that. The tools are now there, just tell me what to get out,”
“Alright let’s actually go inside the testing area then we test,” as I look around for the entrance inside the room as I walk around the room
“Wait… I am the only one in here, and there’s a lot of buttons, switches, and devices in here. I think this was meant to be controlled and monitored by lots of researchers, is it possible if you could take control of the entire area?” as I find the entrance
“Already did, I looked and studied all the controls in this area. You can tell me what you need and you receive,” as the entrance opens to reveal a very large white room area.
“Ok this is very bright and makes me uncomfortable, it feels like staring at the Sun! Evo make the testing area a bit darker,” as the area become dimmer, ”Thank you Evo, now bring out the plasma cutter!” as pieces of metal and materials coming out of the suit start combining together, to make the tool.” Ok that is very sick! Let’s turn it on,” as a very red hot and energetic circular beam comes out of the handle with no sound.” Ok this is cool, feels like holding a Lightsaber, but smaller and looks like a saw blade, eh it was designed to cut through tough materials so it makes sense. Evo is it possible for you to like bring in some metal into this chamber?” as I play around with it, and admiring it.
“It’s possible sir, let me bring it up for you,” as a part of the floor goes down, and brings a couple metal plating out of the floor.
“Alright then, let’s test this bad boy out!” as I run towards the metal objects, full speed ahead, slicing them though like it was made of butter.” Holly molly this thing is hot sharp, it turned the metal that I cut into a molten goop! Was this meant to be this powerful,” as I go back to look at the damage I’ve done.
“You are correct, the original version of that tool is about 10x less as sharp as the one you are using, it was meant to slowly cut your way through the metal like a buzz saw silently but because of my interference, upgrades, and the material and energy it’s made of it is way more powerful. It is also in its weakest setting, there’s a very small switch where you can multiply how powerful you want it to be. Of course the more you turn it up the hotter it is and the color changes. ”As Evo warns me, cleaning up the mess and bringing new metal objects, other than a wall.
“Alright, let’s make it 5x more powerful that it already is,” as I turn a switch and seeing and feeling the heat getting hotter and changing color into more orange-yellowing color. ”Alright this will probably melt anything around it without me even getting it close to something and could injure someone, including me. I think I should change into something more protective than just wearing a tuxedo and also protect Sally from the heat, don’t want her to be cooked,” as Evo changes my outfit into more suitable for testing and giving Sally a protective shell.
“Alright let’s see what the changes are,” as I walk towards the objects instead of running towards them. As I was 1 meter away from the metal object, it started to heat up without me even getting near close to it. ”Ok then that is very dangerous. I am very surprised I am still not sweating or burning for how close I am to it and even Sally. Alright let’s stand back a couple of feet, and increase the power by another 5x,” as I turn the switch more, making it even hotter and starting to feel the handle to get warm, but immediately gets cold but not so much as the objects I am away from it and the color of the blade turning more blue than yellow.

“Wait I just noticed this colors are similar to how hot a fire is, and I am pretty sure this is not how it works,” as I remember what it was,
“You are correct sir, but they aren’t really accurate. They are just visual representations on how hot and dangerous it’s becoming, also a warning to you and the blade.” as Evo stops talking for a second, ”Do not in any circumstances drop that tool without turning it off! As it will slice through the floor and everything else underneath, melting and slicing anything near it! This is my warning to you sir,” as Evo brings down his volume back to normal speaking volume.
“Alright, Alright I won’t drop it, that was very loud.” as I come back to my senses,” I am guessing I should probably not increase its power more,” as I turn it down back to its weakest setting, and turn it off,” Could you put it away and give me the shotgun,” as it disintegrates and a new bigger weapon is being assembled right in front in front of me, and is done in a few seconds.
“Ok this is very sick and cool! It seems to be a combination of a different shotguns, don’t know what they are called but I can definitely Identify that it’s a double barrel, and a combat shotgun mixed together, with other modifications mixed in, damn this design looks very familiar to a game I used to play, but it’s more futuristic, and doesn’t use bullets.” as I admire the look and design of the gun, and making sure it’s safety is on.
“The reason why that weapon looks very familiar to you sir is because I got inspiration from one of your memories, found that out few minutes ago, and decided to make a similar design to it, so you can be more familiar and nostalgic of using it,”
‘Thank you Evo, now how does reloading work? I don’t see a place to put ammo in,” as I double check.
“That’s because it uses charged particles and energy as its ammo source, and it’s connected to the suit since it’s always charged and gets lots of energy from our surroundings, so don’t worry about running out of ammo. Do you want me to explain the modifications that I added to it?”
“Sure I don’t mind that will make it a lot easier and confusing,” as I listen up
“The modifications that I added into it is that you can hold down the trigger to make a more powerful shot. Every 2 seconds of you holding it it’s power increases by 2x and the limit I put in is 100x, of course I could get rid of the limit but I don’t think you are gonna hold the trigger for 200 seconds. The next modification I put is the different types of ammo you can shoot out. There are the normal pulsar bullets that are common inside the original one’s. There is the unstable version, which increases the power and velocity it travels, but it spreads out more and has a chance to explode while traveling. Now these are just the non-destructive type ammo, the ones that are actually destructive are dangerous and need to be handled cautiously. An example is the Pulsar version, you might be thinking “But isn’t that the name of the gun?” You are correct, but what I am talking about is the energy that comes out of neutron stars. Instead of shooting those weak positive charged particles, it uses neutrons and alot of it and it replicates 1% the power of a Pulsar but a lot smaller, compacted and circular, turning it into a cannon more than a shotgun. To learn more, search through what ammo types you want to use.” as Evo finishes his monologue.
“Alright then, that’s more information that I hoped for but I am used to it by now. Now let’s test this weapon out! Bring a dummy of some kind, and with very durable walls behind in case they go through it,” as Evo cleans everything up in the room, and brings out a Be-ru shaped dummy with multiple transparent metal walls behind it.
“Alright, let's first shoot it normally, nothing special,” as I ready up the gun and shoot at the dummy, it was very loud and the bullet’s went through the dummy and onto the protective walls that were behind it. Didn’t even make a dent on it.” Alright this time I am gonna charge up my shots this time for about 6 seconds,” as I aim at the dummy again and hold the trigger. It starts to make sound and it slowly gets louder and when I released it, it was way more louder and the felt the recoil this time, and there were way bigger holes on the dummy than last time, and the metal plating at the back got an even bigger dent, almost looking like it’s about to pierce through it. ”Alright this is getting a bit boring, time to hold it for 36 seconds this time,” as I started to hold the trigger again. 20 seconds in and the noise it makes starts to get loud as someone is talking to me near my ear, and the gun starts to vibrate a little bit. When 36 seconds had reached I released it, and the sound was now just as loud as an explosion, and I felt the recoil push me back a bit. The dummy got obliterated and the first wall got destroyed, and the other two walls behind it, got pierce through and the 4th and 5th wall got damaged a bit. ”Wow, felt that one and that recoil nearly pushed me off balance, I wonder what would happen if I hold it for 50 seconds?” as I was about to do it Evo stopped me
“Sir, that's not a good idea as it would pierce through all of the metal plating behind the dummy and would shatter the testing wall area, and the sound it would make would go above 200 decibels making a shockwave and everyone in training area would feel it, and also the fact that it would break everything around you, and the recoil would push you way back if you were not prepared and you were not,” as Evo forces the safety on the gun
“Alright then guess not, I was planning on doing that Pulsar type ammo, what would actually happen?” as I check out the ammo options
“Well first off, it would break this ship apart from the force alone, everyone would die because of the energy it’s being released, and that the actually pulsar would just vaporize everything it touches,” as Evo changes his voice into a serious mode
“Why the hell does it even exist if when I shoot it everything around me and maybe myself included would die?” as I am in shocked and confusion
“Why not? Plus it’s meant to destroy a group of enemies that are far away in space, and meant as a last resort. I could research more on how to compact the power of a pulsar even further and allow more than 1% of a pulsar to be used inside the DPS. Now let me take that from you,” as the gun gets taken apart and the parts get absorbed back into the suit.
“So did you find anything about the broken gadget’s that were inside that container you scanned,” as I checked up on Sally to see if she was ok.
“I did sir, one of them seemed to be a grenade but instead of exploding it implodes, bringing everything towards the center of its core. Seems that the reason why it was in that container was because it was too dangerous and it injured the testers and damaged a lot of equipment, and it malfunctioned.” As Evo shows me a diagram of the grenade of what it looks like.
“So it’s basically a throwable black hole?” as I look at the design
“That’s 50% true. Yes it sucks in like a black hole, but it doesn’t have an event horizon, and doesn’t distort time when you are and it’s escapable since it doesn’t have the gravitational pull strength of a black hole.” Evo correcting me
“Alright then, but could you make them?”
“Yes I can, but it’s not a good idea to use one inside the ship, as what I just told you, and everything I make is a lot better than before, so it’s going to be a lot more powerful and could tear up a new hole in the ship, ”Evo warns as at the same he’s making them
“Alright then, any other memorable ones?” as I wait around in the room
“There are two very deadly weapons that I found, that I think we're being heavily researched and tested upon, since they have so much potential. The first one is called the Quantum Accelerator, and the second one is called the Sound Amplifier. The first weapon makes it so anything it hits will manipulate its atomic structure turning it into a new form, or just making it a solid or a liquid, and also the light around the lazer gets distorted. The second weapon makes the sound and particles vibrate very fast. This means that sound waves can be manipulated and used as a weapon or break any creature's ears, and make them deaf. The reason both of these are in that container is one they kept breaking, two they are very dangerous, and three it was meant to be kept a secret and hidden,” as Evo shows both of the weapons.
“Huh, the Quantum Accelerator is attached to a container, and where the lazer and energy comes from is shaped like a cylinder. The Sound Amplifier is very small, looks like a pistol, and what’s with that strange loop at the front? These are very weird designs” as I examine them
“You want me to make them physically sir?”
“If it’s possible then yes, but could you give me that Blackhole grenade?” as I am ready to be given to me.
“It’s possible sir, give me a few seconds. But I am gonna have to warn you sir, if you push the button that activates the grenade, I can’t deactivate it so you better have a plan if you are gonna activate it,” as a small circular ball is being made, and placed onto Jed’s hand
“Ok this is light, also how powerful is this grenade from the original version of it you showed?” as I try not to accidentally activate it.
“It is about 5x more powerful, and didn't make any changes, modifications, or upgrades to it. I only fixed and made it more safe while holding it, and in my prediction, this is what it would look like and how powerful it will be,” as Evo starts making changes to the entire testing area,” I made the entire testing area, the most stable and heavy as it can be to make sure it doesn’t it doesn’t get rip apart. But I don’t think this will hold on much, I am ready when you are,” as Evo ready’s up
“Alright here we go, hope this doesn't rip another hole into the ship,” as I activate the grenade, it starts to beep that seems to be the countdown. They started to go even faster and I threw it as far as possible away from me. Then after a couple of seconds later, it makes a loud whoosh and then starts to suck everything in the room back to itself, ripping out the flooring of the testing chamber and parts of the wall, and start to get pulled into it. After a couple seconds later it got even stronger, and entire pieces of the walls and floors are getting ripped apart, and I start to feel the pull away from it.
“Evo! How long will this grenade last? It seems to be getting stronger every few seconds!” as I move away from the pull, and towards the exit.
“According to my estimations this will last for 1 minute, and by the time it reaches 30 seconds it will rip the entire testing chamber apart and even outside walls of this place, and on 50 seconds, it will be so strong everything and everyone in this ship will feel the pull,”
“Oh shoot this was a horrible idea, how am I supposed to get rid of this! I can’t really move it since it’s not physical, and I can’t really put it inside the portal, and move it into another universe! I could try to edit it, but I have no clue how this thing works!” as I exit the chamber, ”Did you scan all of the information and data inside the testing room?” as I close it
“ Already did, also get ready for the alarm’s to blurt out, and the testing chambers walls to collapse, try to use your editing ability to contain that pull and I will help you out,” as after a few moments later the walls immediately get sucked in, and the alarms activate.
——————————————————————————————————————————
“Captain! There’s an emergency inside the Testing chamber!” as a messenger abruptly opens her doors.
“Why? What the hell happened!” as she gets up from her chair, ”What has the S.I.T been doing? I thought it was clear that they would give me any information they found while watching him!”
“Well someone named Jed, was messing around in the chamber and it seems one of the weapons he tested out, started to completely breaking the area,” as he shows a footage of what’s happening
“Oh no, that’s one of the dangerous prototypes the researchers made and are still trying to fix! Get everyone evacuated from this ship, it’s going to destroy half of the ship and that includes the power core of my ship!” as she rushes out of the door, and heads straight to the testing chamber. ”How the hell did he get that!? I should have not trusted him from the start!”
“Yes captain!” as the messenger takes out a microphone
“Attention all crew in the ship, please remain calm and steady to make sure everyone evacuate out of this ship. Please avoid the Training room, and go straight to the hangar on the second floor, thank you for listening, as a side note please help the injured on the 1st floor” as the messenger puts it away, and immediately runs off.
