2 Days Later
Weekend
Theo’s Hideout
Theo made short work of the first waves of items Juno requested of him.
While he had many gripes against Juno herself, he was intrigued by some of her ideas.
The first item she asked for was a grappling gun.
This was easy since Theo already made one for himself.
The second item was an interesting.
It was a white and black umbrella with fancy Victorian design. While it did look like a normal umbrella, it was made with the same material used in Theo’s Z49 Scout Armor.
By sacrificing any high tech gizmos, Theo made the umbrella as tough as possible.
It could easily take an armor piercing RPG and escape with nothing more than scratches.
Its lack of complexity allowed Theo to build it in 10 short minutes.
The rest of the 2 days were spent on a couple projects that have been on a half finish state for a while now.
The first was a heavily modified jet black F-22A Raptor.
It had 3 engines, capable of vertical lift off and can hover.
It had multiple missile turrets that allowed it to fire at any direction.
It had a wide variety of munition ranging from nonlethal, extremely disgusting green goo gatling cannon to the very lethal missile loaded with his original incendiary ‘Purgatory’ Missile.
It had stealth technology that vastly outstrips the original F-22A
It was powered by 3 decently sized Archon generators (one for each engine), thus making it much more powerful than the original.
Last but not the least, it can be flown both manually and via drone system.
Theo christened this particular F-22A Raptor as the ‘Mobius One’
Theo only made 1 due to its relatively high maintenance nature.
The second project that he was working on was a 20 meter long railgun.
It was something that he believed could be the solution to the ‘non-nuclear weapon of mass destruction’ in his to-do list.
Just to clarify though, the Railgun was but one piece of the puzzle. It was not capable of unleashing a catastrophic levels of damage.
This could also be said to the munition the railgun uses.
It was nothing more than a kinetic round. It cant generate enough boom to reach mass destruction levels.
Theo has a master plan, but it was still ways off before he could even conduct any tests.
The original design was for a 150 meter railgun.
The story has been taken without consent; if you see it on Amazon, report the incident.
For now, baby steps.
While Theo was making parts for the railgun, his phone’s alarm went off.
“ Never in my life have I thought that I would be so reluctant to experience my first date… *sigh*.”

30 minutes later
Vermilion City
Downtown District
“Let go of me” said Theo Juno who was hugging his right arm
“Your statement doesn’t make sense. You have the most beautiful girl in existence pressing her breast into your arm. Why in gods name would you want to separate from such a luscious experience?”
“Arent you full of yourself.”
“Of course I am. My entire appearance was tailor made to your tastes. Thus to you, I am the most beautiful girl in the world” replied Juno
Theo hated to admit but Juno knew exactly what pleased him
While he didn’t have any particular fetish, he had a thing for women that looked good in uniform.
Juno wore a black and white version of a soldier from the Napoleonic army with a modern touch. The fancy accessories were removed completely but the design made the suite a bit more form fitting.
The combination of Theo’s fancy umbrella and high heel knee high boots made Juno into a classy yet extremely seductive soldier.
Since Juno was a head turner, the low key Theo felt uncomfortable under the torrent of gazes.
An hour or so passed with your typical date-like scenario.
Window shopping, eating at a restaurant, walking and talking.
This frustrated Theo, but since he was the beggar in this scenario, he had no choice but to obey.
The last stop was a fancy looking 5 story building with the sign ‘Dionaea Salon and Spa’.
“The name is fairly ominous, isn’t it?” Said Theo as he and Juno walked through the sliding door
“Not a lot of people would think so. Most wouldn’t even get the reference.” Replied Juno
The word ‘Dionaea’ pertained to 2 things.
First was specie of flies.
Second was the Venus Flytrap.
Ominous much?
“I’m guessing this is the place?” asked Theo
“Yup. And this date is a perfect excuse to do a bit of scouting, right?” replied Juno
“Touché.”
As the two approached the receptionist’s desk, Theo noticed something weird.
“The staff seems to be solely composed of women. All of them are surprisingly pretty too.”
“Good catch. But I suggest you take a good look into their eyes.” Said Juno
Theo decided to follow Juno’s advice
While she was talking to the receptionist about their promos, Theo used his cybernetic eye to observe every little detail about the receptionist.
Theo didn’t get it the first minute but he soon realized that the woman’s eyes were unnecessarily blissful.
While she acted like a normal everyday human being, it was as if she was watching a beautiful dream
One look around and Theo spot that every last one of the staff had the same eyes.
One thing instantly came into Theo’s mind: Mind Control
Seeing how his enemy was a high level Incubus, a harem of beautiful women was expected.
Was Theo jealous?
Very much so!
Having a harem was one of his lifelong goals after all.
If given the chance, Theo would like to learn of the Incubi’s ability to seduce women…. For purely scientific reasons.
As Theo was about to ask Juno where the target Incubus, she painfully grabbed Theo by the arm
Theo immediately noticed she was shaking.
While Juno’s face was her usual smiling mask, an almost unidentifiable sliver of fear and rage appeared barely a millisecond before disappearing without a trace.
The source of Juno’s anxieties was a handsome man that suddenly appeared behind the receptionist desk.
Long hair, good fashion sense and a generally likable appearance. Theo’s first impression of him was fairly good.
However, this quickly changed when Theo noticed his hungry gaze when he saw Juno.
It was weird to see the generally confident Juno to be in a state of panic and fear.
Before Theo could start probing the man….
“Darling, isn’t time for our movie? If we don’t hurry, we might end up late” said Juno
Though her acting was perfect, it was clear as day that Juno wanted nothing to do with the man
The man seemed to be thinking the opposite.
He quickly rushed out of the receptionist booth and approached Theo and Juno.
“A pleasure to meet you both. My name Raymond Alfonso Dionaea and I am the proprietor of this establishment. May I ask-” said the man
Juno ignored him and focused her gaze on Theo while stealthily pulling him towards the exit.
“Hey darling. After our movie, there’s a great place in the red light district we can use. I heard they have some toys for hardcore play! We should try it!” said Juno
Theo decided to play along with Juno’s kinky scenario
“Hardcore huh… I’m not exactly a fan but I don’t mind doing it. However, can you take it? You know I do go wild when you tickle my sadist side, right?”
He gently caressed Juno’s butt as he walked beside her.
Though surprised, Juno was very pleased.
“~Of course~ I may not look like it, but I’m a proud masochist. Please mess me up, my master”
The man could only watch slacked jawed as Theo and Juno ignored his existence and exited the building.
A few minutes later, Theo asked the big question
“Was that the target?”
Juno body shook as she made a rare non smiling face. It was a face filled with a bit of fear and a lot murderous rage.
“Yes. Raymond Alfonso Dionaea. The highest ranking Incubus in Vermilion City”
