Awesome Possum Kicks Cool Cat's Butt (Featuring guest stars, Bubsy and most of the FFVI crew)

From last where we left off, Cool Cat had obliterated France with nuclear armaments, after massacring YouTube reviewers and various social networks. But a certain Possum had enough and wanted to avenge the environmental damage caused by the atomic blasts.

"Hey! Over here you bully!" Yelled Awesome Possum to get Cool Cat's attention.

Cool Cat dove the plane right into Awesome Possum, but the eco-friendly mammalian jumped up and smashed the cockpit open, causing Cool Cat to fall out of the jet fighter which then proceed to crash into the Eiffel Tower.

"Yeah, that's right. Come out and fight me you scaredy cat." coaxed Awesome Possum.

Awesome Possum was barraged by a hailstorm of bullets from Cool Cat's AK-47. He ducked behind a wrecked car. The possum tried to think of a plan when a familiar face peeped out of the destroyed vehicle.

"What's with all the noise?" said an orange bobcat.

"Bubsy! Where have you been?"

"I escaped from Accolade and I pretty much roam the world for a new game to be in, even if it sucks." Bubsy said.

"Can you help me defeat this trigger happy kitty?" asked Awesome Possum.

"Sure! What could possibly go wrong?"

Bubsy jumped out of the nuked car and glided around awkwardly and attacked Cool Cat. Cool cat shot frantically at the bobcat. Bubsy did his best to dodge the bullet fire and was distracting him from Awesome Possum. Awesome then jumped up and kicked Cool Cat in the head, surprising him. Cool Cat fell to ground and was going to get up but Bubsy body slammed him into the irradiated ground. Cool Cat then took a Desert Eagle and shot fiercely at both of the other animals. Both of them escaped the paths of the bullet fire. Then Bubsy flew at Cool Cat and proceeded to RKO him. But then it happened; After the RKO, Cool Cat punched through Bubsy's body and tore his heart out. Bubsy fell to the ground, dead.

"You heartless bastard!" said Awesome Possum.

So he picked up a derelict muffler and slammed Cool Cat in the crotch. Then a large vehicle crashed through a nearby building, sending dirt and radioactive debris all around. Several figures walked out.

"I'm comin' for you nigga!" said man with a machine gun for a hand, and fired his hand.

Cool Cat was critically hit. The crew introduced themselves to Awesome Possum as Cool Cat began firing his AK-47 yet again. The guy with the spiky low polygon hair, Cloud, took his buster sword and attacked Cool Cat, but Cool Cat used his AK-47 to block . Slowly but surely, the AK-47 was split in two by the sword, so Cool Cat took out a bazooka and blasted at Tifa. Tifa got hit, but it was enough to do a Limit Break. So she kicked the living shit out of Cool Cat. But Cool Cat grabbed her by the leg and threw her at Awesome Possum. Barrett continued to fire at Cool Cat. Cool Cat was loaded with lead but he was still fighting at full strength. Then Cait Sith sat on top of Cool Cat. But Cool Cat somehow climbed into his ass and ripped him inside out.

"Shit, look what that asshole did!" said Barrett.

"I know." replied Awesome Possum.

But then Cool Cat brought out his M16 and fired at Aeris. Aeris was killed in a hail of bullets, so much that her head exploded! Cool Cat was picking off the AVALANCHE crew one by one at this point. Red 16 was impaled by a bayonet that on top of a M1 Garand that Cool Cat used as a spear. Barrett shot at Cool Cat, but to no avail. Soon it was Cloud's turn to do a limit break and attacked with an Omnislash. Slash marks ravaged Cool Cat's body, but he kept fighting. No progress had been made until Cloud sliced Cool Cat's left arm. Cool Cat only stopped to look at his removed appendage, but was then stomped on by Awesome Possum. Tifa roundhouse kicked Cool Cat's head and Cloud summoned Shiva. Cool Cat survived the ice and it actually helped to heal Cool Cat's wound. Cool Cat stuck out his M1 Garand and pointed out as Tifa went to bust his ass. Tifa had a American WWII rifle jut out of her back. She slowly began to die and casting Cure only delayed the inevitable. Barrett got in some pretty nasty headshots and even removed Cool Cat's right ear. Cloud, Barret, and Awesome Possum only remain. Cloud cast Bolt II, frying Cool Cat's fur. Barrett punch the back of Cool Cat's spine. A loud crack reverberated throughout the blasted ruins of Paris. But Cool Cat fought at full capacity.

"How can these nigga be that strong?" asked Barrett.

"It because he is fueled by the emotional bond with his master, Derek Savage!" explained Awesome Possum.

"I think I have an idea." said Barrett.

Barrett jumped out behind Cool Cat's back and shot him in the head. It only seem to stun him temporarily, but just enough time to knock Cool Cat down so Cloud could Cross-Slash him. Cool Cat has absorbed so much damage for past five and three-quarters of an hour, that he slowly began to lose the will to fight. Cool Cat tried to shoot the M1 Garand but the firearm was clogged with the innards of Tifa. Cool Cat caught Barrett off guard and shoved rocks into his hand gun (literally a gun for a hand) and upon firing it, caused Barrett to blast his arm completely off. Barrett tried to splash water onto the hole where his arm once was, but radiation poisoning got the better of him. Cloud used whatever materia he had on him, to no avail. Cool Cat kicked Cloud in the crotch and pretty much neutered him, ironic considering that Cool Cat is well, a cat! Cloud tried to attack but the pain was much and a summon materia rolled toward Cool Cat and he used it. Ifrit was summoned and both burned Cool Cat and Cloud. This only left Awesome Possum and Awesome Possum.

"Its only me and you buddy." said Awesome Possum.

Awesome Possum and Cool Cat punch right in the fist. Cool Cat's fist disintegrated. Now Cool Cat was injured enough that he was losing the battle. The 1v1 lasted until the next morning. Cool Cat survived the 28 hours of being beaten up, but the damage completely severed the emotional link between Derek Savage and Cool Cat, Cool Cat for the first time in forever, could operate to himself. But then Cool Cat stood there, doing nothing, he survived being electrocuted, burned, shot, and slashed with a giant ass sword.

"Time to avenge the environment BITCH!"  said Awesome Possum to himself.

So Awesome Possum ran up to Cool Cat and kicked his butt. So hard in fact that Cool Cat flew onto the Eiffel Tower getting his asshole impaled by the melted top point and then fell off and landed onto his wrecked jet fighter and it fell to ground and exploded in a fiery heap of aluminium and shrapnel. Awesome Possum's job was done.

*+===================================================================+*

"What you mean I'm under arrest, you can arrest me over my movie! NOOOOOO!!!!!" screamed Derek Savage as he was thrown in a SWAT van and was driven off.

Cool Cat's body was found mangled and torched in the fallout ruin of France. As the remaining citizens began to rebuild their nuked nation. Derek was convicted on the charges of mass terrorism caused by him sending Cool Cat to silence those who even remotely mention his film. Cool Cat's body was put on display at the Smithsonian Museum as a trophy of the war on terror and why the internet shouldn't be censored.

As for Awesome Possum. He helped clean up the radiation out of France and helped rebuild it, He found work as a video game character again as a gift from Ubisoft for fixing their home country. A statue of him exists in New Paris, as a testament for environmental protection and the war for reviewer freedom, especially on the internet, proving that you hadn't need be Jim fucking Sterling to make a point about the world of the internet.

THE END

Cool Cat Kills the Youtube Reviewers, Memers, Social Media People, and a Whole Country

(This is meant to be a satirical take on people lashing out at reviews who talk badly about their product, as such this is not to be taken seriously despite the hot button topic[s] included) 

One day, Derek Savage was poking around the Internet when he came across some YouTube Reviews of his movie about Cool Cat teaching kids about how incredibly black & white bulling is. He suddenly called over Cool Cat in a angry fashion.

"COOL CAT COME IN HERE!" yelled Derek.

Cool Cat walked in and acknowledged his master.

"I've had it with these bloody YouTubers thinking they can criticize by work like they have Freedom of Speech or something!"

Cool Cat nodded his head.

"Here's the keys to my gun locker. I'm going to put you on a very special mission. I need you to prevent these YouTubers from talking shit, okay?"

Cool Cat received a key and paper containing the usernames of various reviewers, all of whom gave bad reviews.

"Good man, errrr...cat. But make sure you get them real good. Drive the M4 Sherman if you want." Derek finished.

Cool Cat went to the gun locker, it was more like a storage container and it contained every imaginable firearm and more ammo than an action movie hero. Cool Cat grabbed everything and loaded the M4 Sherman and left.

*+===================================================================+*

Cool Cat first got up to the residence of YourMovieSucks and aimed the turret to the front porch and with a loud bang, destroyed the house. Cool Cat then threw a German stick grenade to make sure of it. But the YouTuber was out grocery shopping and when he went onto his street he noticed the destroyed house and Cool Cat was searching the wreckage.

"OH SHIT!" said YourMovieSucks, he then threw his car's peddle to the flipping metal and drove as fast as can.

Cool Cat noticed the reviewer's car and drove the tank after him. The chase ended up in them going onto a interstate highway. A police helicopter was filming the footage and was chasing them too. Cool Cat took the tank and shot down several cop cars and then the tank and aimed for the YouTuber's speeding Ford. The turret fired and the car swerved sideways causing the tank shell to take down an overpass bridge. Cool Cat ignited the Nitrous boosters and the Sherman raced forward onto a high bridge where YourMovieSucks was on. Cool Cat passed him and fired a shot, the car was blown to smithereens. Then he fired several more shot to destroy the bridge. The bridge fell 500 feet to the ravine below severing an important road connection between states.

The next target was IHateEverything, he tending to his garden of bushes that grew material for him to review. But he saw Cool Cat's tank going down the bend at the end of the road. He quickly ran into his house and pushed the Emergency Defense button. IHE's house was suddenly covered in steel siding and sandbag walls appeared, complete with barbed wire. He jumped into the cockpit of a artillery gun and fired at the tank. The brutal battle suddenly began.

Cool Cat fired back but to no avail. IHateEverything fired yet again and destroyed the tank's left tread. The M4 Sherman crashed into the side of winnebago and it blew up. Cool Cat left the wrecked tank and went on foot equipped with a M16 and fired at IHE. IHE ducked and fired the artillery at Cool Cat.

Then Aquaman came out and summoned a Blastoise. Cool Cat shot down the water-type Pokemon with a Crakakakakaka. Aquaman then caused a tsunami and wash Cool Cat down the street, taking out a good portion of the other houses and then Cool Cat launched a Bazooka round and Aquaman got blown to bits.

"Oh god! Guess its time to bring out my secret weapon.!" Said IHateEverything.

He took a remote control and started to have command over a Dalek he kept in the garage and it moved onto the suburban battlefield.

"EXTERMINATE!" screamed the Dalek.

The Dalek fired deadly lasers at Cool Cat, but Cool Cat used a NYPD issued riot shield, which not only deflects rioters (if you can call them that) but also anything deadly. Cool Cat fired another bazooka round at it. It did nothing. But Cool Cat kept his cool and tried everything, but then he got an idea, if he could shove something into the laser firing bit, it could destroy itself. So Cool Cat took a Bad Dragon branded dildo and ran toward the Dalek. The Dalek kept firing but Cool Cat jumped from side to side and then shoved the dildo in. The Dalek tried to fire but was no use, it violently exploded. Cool Cat blew open the sandbag wall and fired at the steel house. IHE retreated inside his resident bunker. Cool Cat gave chase and IHateEverthing sent out robotic gunmen to defend the fortress.

Cool Cat pressed onward blowing up door after door before reaching into a large hanger where IHE was piloting Metal Gear. The biped tank quickly tried to shoot up Cool Cat but to no avail. Cool Cat suddenly spammed C4 explosives blowing up Metal Gear. But in a last ditch attempt to finish Cool Cat he set the home to self destruct and then suicide bombed Cool Cat. Cool Cat used the riot shield but the blast destroyed the shield. Cool Cat dashed out before the place was destroying in a fiery heap.

Cool Cat received a call from Derek Savage.

"Hi I just want to tell you that people are making hurtful memes about you saving the kids! Take the He 111 and blow up 4Chan HQ. Okay, thanks!" Derek hanged up.

*+===================================================================+*

Cool Cat was now flying thousands of feet in the air heading to 4Chan HQ to destroy the evidence of memes on the internet. Soon he came upon the building and flipped a lever. Bombs dropped from the bomb bay doors. But a rare pepe came out and defended the headquarters and then let out a mighty roar. Cool Cat put it into All-Range mode (a feature commonly put on Arwings but modded into a Heinkel He 111 as well as the ability to fire laser beams, making this WWII bomber an essential Arwing) and fired at the rare pepe. The rare pepe swiped at the plane and ripped off the banner advertising a random Cool Cat movie. Cool Cat dropped some bombs onto one of the rare pepe's eyes, blinding it instantly. The rare pepe lost 1/5 of its vision and all of its depth perception. The rare pepe puked a double rainbow at the He 111\Arwig combo and took out part of the rudder. The plane started to beep loudly. Cool Cat then dropped bombs onto the 4Chan building, demolishing it entirely. Then crashed the plane into the rare pepe, Cool Cat escaped however. But Cool Cat thought of other places memes could be made. So Cool Cat broke into an army base and stole a jet fighter. He took off to the skies to destroy the headquarters of Facebook, Reddit, and Tumblr.

*+====================================================================+*

Cool Cat finally came across the Headquarters of all three in a prissy business park in Silicon Valley. Wind of Cool Cat's destruction caught wind and the air raid sirens begin to flare. The three major social networks sent out the RAF (bought from Britain using money from Facebook's shares). The sky filled up with Spitfires trying to shoot down the rouge jet fighter. Cool Cat attacked the spitfires and 20 of them fell to the ground with some swift rocket fires. Then the Lancaster Bombers dropped bombs on the jet fighter. But Cool Cat won't go down without yet another fight and fired a machine gun at the fuselage of one of the bombers which crashed onto another bomber before exploding on impact with the ground. Cool Cat tricked one of the Lancaster Bombers into destroying Tumblr. The Gamergate women ran outside of the collapsing building and Cool Cat fired into the crowd before single handedly destroying a formation of Spitfires. He then shot down two Spitfires which crashed into Reddit building then Chairman Pao came out and fired an anti-aircraft gun but missed and hit a Lancaster Bomber and it thought it was hit by the jet fighter and bombed Reddit's HQ.

The last one standing was Facebook. The RAF was only left with 56 planes out of the usual 1002, you can see why the number was reduced so drastically. So Cool Cat launched two missiles inside, obliterating the front lobby and most of the first floor. Cool Cat then realized he needed to destroy the servers. So he then fired missiles onto very floor of the building before the whole building until the whole HQ crumbled to the ground. The RAF scrambled away. Then Cool Cat received a premonition.

The premonition was about the French arresting him and Derek Savage. So he had a cunning plan.

*+==================================================================+*

The jet fighter was equipped with four nukes, Cool Cat was saving them for a special target. So Cool Cat flew to France. The worst of his atrocities has finally come. Unprovoked by Derek's directives but rather Cool Cat's own accord. He nuked Paris followed by Lyon, then Bordeaux, finally ending with Canne. There was truly no more peace for France.

Soon the winds carried the nuclear radiation and spread it across Europe, Asia, and Africa. The environment decayed and animals and humans became sick. Then a hero came out of retirement. This patriot of being green, came out like a light at the end of a tunnel. His name, Awesome Possum, back to kick more butt. This time, its not Dr. Machino, its Cool Cat...

To be concluded in...

Some ideas for my Youtube channel

So I was thinking about going back to doing Thomas Wooden Railway videos again. Starting with a Flying Kipper remake complete with creative "deviations". But the chance of me doing actually doing this is pretty slim since I'll probably need to write a script and get some musical assets with or without sound effects.

I'm also thinking about doing a Touhou/Railway Series crossover, this may either come in the form of a video series (mixing walfas animation and filmed footage) or as a written affair.

Then there's the potential of me doing a walkthrough for one of my games to help anyone that gets stuck on any particular level.

Don't really expect this to be a definite thing that I'll be doing.

The Completely True Story of AeroSoft's History (Original Format)

The year: 2028, 18 years since the founding of AeroSoft, then called Aero Games. Started off a pirated version of Gamemaker 8 and a couple of YouTube tutorials, which was 2010. In 2012, the company was renamed to AeroSoft. Of course, we’re not gonna talk about those early days of nostalgia. Instead, we will discuss the story of how AeroSoft went from small to big in five years.

            The date was December 14^th 2014, I woke up at two o’clock in the morning, nausea as usual. As I was chewing on some gum, I heard footsteps and quiet talking. I sneaked into the kitchen, and turned on the lights.

            There in front of me were two surprised women, both dressed strangely, one of them had what appeared to be nine fox tales coming from behind. The three of us stared at each other for what seemed for hours. Until I asked “Who and what are you two doing here.” I said, gum to the side of my mouth.

The two women obviously had other intentions, but instead of escaping (I expected for them to jump out the backdoor or some random window) they offered me an opportunity. They leave and keep this event as a secret, or return with them and giving up my life at home. I chose the latter.

I took my computer, hard drive, several boxes of chai, any iDevices that I owned, wallet, all required medication, and the Lego model of what would become the “Super Mega Drive”.

I said that I ready and to my surprise one of them opened a gap, a gap to a place, a land severed off from the modern world, a land called Gensokyo. This had to be the least feasible thing today, and it was only 2:20 in the morning. If only I knew what was to come.

Through the gap I arrived at the woman’s house. The woman introduced herself as Yukari Yakumo and the woman with the fox tales, Ran.

Gensokyo was a realm unlike any other. Sealed away by the Great Hakurei Barrier, is where humans and youkai co-exist. The local youkai however, range on a varying scale of how dangerous they are, since some of them eat humans. There were things called Spell Cards which are special cards that are used for defense or offense, involving something called Danmaku. Also, apparently Gensokyo is located somewhere on the outskirts of Kyoto, so there’s that.

I temporarily lived in the human village, for about a year. I had to redress AeroSoft for its new home. I slowly learned about the land, but I found out that there was an almost non-existent gaming industry. Save for various things that filtered through the barrier and Yukari’s gaps.

Six months later, I needed some investment for getting AeroSoft afloat. I heard about the Scarlet Devil Mansion. I also needed to start figuring out how to use Spell Cards. So I went to this magician named Marisa Kirisame. Needless to say, she is kind of a kleptomaniac and she decided to bring me along to the mansion’s library to steal some books.

I ended up meeting the librarian Patchouli, then the head maid, Sakuya. Patchouli was pissed at Marisa for breaking into her library for the third time this week. I asked who was the person who lived here was. Sakuya took me to her mistress, Remilia Scarlet.

“I have something that you might like.” I said, which surprised both women, mostly Sakuya.

“…Go on.” Replied Remilia.

I promptly pulled out my computer bag that I kept safe under the back of my shirt and showed her three games.

One was about a Box creature that was fighting against a just as blocky scientist (Boxman the Boxian), an RPG about three guys saving a land of ponies from a raging dictator (Brony Quest: When Nazis Attack), and finally, a horror maze game that involved a guy exploring a mansion of unspeakable origin (Creepypasta Mansion).

Remilia was impressed with the first two. The last one just couldn’t hold her attention as much as the last two did.

“I could show you more, and make more like these. But, I need some investment to keep making them.” I explained after the demonstration ended.

“What investment?” she asked.

I remembered that Gensokyo had little to no tech industry, let alone a gaming industry…Just yet. I spent a good lecture about what it is, and the things needed for such a thing.

I expected a very tepid reaction from them. But needless to say, I got some support from her. But, to prove that I can be trusted and worthy of said support, I had to show her any or all progress of the projects I has or would be doing.

I was off to start work when she stopped me. Remilia got up and walked towards and said “One more thing before you go.”

She motioned Sakuya to get some bandages, and then she suddenly bit me. I held in my scream (but it was mostly the swearing I was restraining), she was sucking my blood. Despite being similar to a blood draw it hurt much more and for longer. After she let go, she rubbed her tongue, probably because of a copper aftertaste.

I left with a sore arm, but ready nonetheless, to start an industry like no other. I spent the next year developing games and showing Remilia. Some of which were already made (Brony Quest 2: Day of Lavos) or resumed production on (Brony Quest 3 and Emergency Landing) or already in development (AS: The Day the Earth Glitched, Boxman the Boxian 2, and two unnamed RPGs).

It was early into my second year of being in Gensokyo when I was stopped by Yukari.

“I heard what you have been doing.” Yukari said, surprising me in my studio.

“What? About the games I have been busy with?” I replied, caught completely off guard.

Yukari, unlike many of the youkai or humans that lived here, has been outside of Gensokyo, mainly for abducting humans for local consumption, and at one point, gapping new people in. So she knew exactly what I doing and producing.

“I have one question to ask, how are you gonna use it?” Yukari questioned.

I sighed, “With this thing” showing her the Lego model of the Super Mega Drive.

“Sadly…This thing is only a model and so far there is no way any of the Gensokyo masses could really use it for.” Then an idea popped into my 17 year old mind.

“Say, do you always use your gaps to enter and exit Gensokyo?” I said, wondering.

“Uhhh…Yes why you asked me that?” Yukari was surprised by the question and yet intrigued by it.

“We could use your gaps to “Borrow” the items needed to produce an actual console like this!” I explained,

I thought I’d put the future of my existence in jeopardy by suggesting stealing plastic and electronic components. But instead she agreed to such a strange heist.

I, Yukari, Ran, and a friend of Yukari, Yuyuko, raided both a Lego factory and several large computer shops. Both locations were of my accord, I took the materials; the other three kidnapped the humans for youkai consumption.

When I got back I started work on the prototype. I melted the stolen plastic pellets into boiling goo. While I arranged the PCB and the power supply, it took me a week to make the first hundred units. Then I showed it off to the vampire aristocrat, Remilia.

She was most impressed by the hardware since she was beginning to get bored with the software I was showing before. “I will start selling this device in two weeks’ time.” I said with an excited expression.

Before I left after the meeting ended I asked, “Say, are there any newspapers around here?”

“There’s one or two around here, the only one I can think of is the Bunbunmaru Newspaper.” Remilia answered.

She told me about who does the paper and I left shortly after. I had to find a tengu named Aya. It didn’t take me long to find her as she was reporting about some minor thing that has happened. I asked her if she was indeed Aya (stupid question, but it worked). She said yes, and I told that I can show her something amazing and news worthy.

I took her to where I was working and show her the boxes of Super Mega Drives piled up in a somewhat unkempt manner. I showed her the console itself, I told her about the launch titles, and let her play the games. The next day, the article appeared. It made headlines, and the hype train suddenly left the station at an infinite speed. Gensokyo will have its first video game release.

I worried when the fortnight ended, what if such a tentative thing won’t work. I warily made plans for it, a midnight release tomorrow. It worked.

Very few humans ever went and bought the machine, but almost every other creature and youkai came out to buy it (exceptions were Yukari and Remilia, since I gave them freebies as a thank you gift for helping me this far). The Super Mega Drive was a hit.

The launch titles are as follows: Boxman the Boxian, Brony Quest: When Nazis Attack, Creepypasta Mansion, and Tiny Tower (a port of an iOS game that I played). The next week was followed by: Thunder Gun, The YouTube Poop World, Super Crate Box, and Ahriman’s Treasure (ports of various games that I played on Gamejolt.com).

The Next year was spent releasing games and incorporating. The board of directors was founded (Remilia Scarlet and Yukari Yakumo) and a special newsletter (published through Aya). However this got the attention of Remiu Hakurei, a miko that lived near the barrier. She was having a negative attitude to the whole AeroSoft thing when she saw two fairies Cirno and Sunny Milk, fighting over the Super Mega Drive.

Remiu confronted me about the situation. I gave her a tour of the studio in hopes of her not being alienated and acting in a inclement manner (she already was and I knew exactly why: this whole AeroSoft thing was new to her and Remiu though something bad and evil was happening). Over the next 3 years, she began to warm up and get used to it and even saving me after I had left Gensokyo.

By now the demand of games and consoles were going pretty strong, Terraria (basically a 2D Minecraft game) was released to an extremely large amount of praise. I hand make the cartridges (I use a heavily modified proprietary USB 3.0 instead of ROM boards) and consoles (I still have scars from handling hot plastic).

I heard about a shy kappa that had amazing engineering skills. That kappa was Nitori Kawashiro. I found her, but she ran away, I lured her out with cucumbers and that worked.

I told her I would give her a large supply of cukes if she would solve my problem. She built me 3 machines that would mass produce (Controllers, cartridges, and Super Mega Drives). Nitori would later be the lead hardware engineer.

When I showed her some of the games, she was not impressed. She said “Why do all the games look so flat?”

I was expecting, even hoping that someone would question its 3D capabilities. This resulted in me porting Wolfenstein 3D and Doom, along with Brony Quest 3, Tetris, and Michael Jackson’s Moonwalker HD (A remake of the Sega Genesis game). By years end, Nitori would make her take of the Super FX chip that the SNES had. The NUFX chip (Nitori’s Ultra FX Chip) would allow for graphics that were slightly less superior to the PS2, and used for a cart racer based on the show Wacky Races, Boxman the Boxian 3D, Doom 2, and Duke Nukem 3D.

The fourth year started with me showing my benevolent side. Donating a large cartload of money to the Hakurei Shrine (literally) and starting a special needs fund (After observing Cirno’s idiot-like behavior and as a “take that!” to Reed).

I was beginning my plan to bring AeroSoft back to America and see if the Super Mega Drive would work. Even augmenting it to point of being an entirely different console, and I finished teaching Reisen how to develop for the Super Mega Drive.

I meet Reisen Udongein Inaba while delivering a small shipment to place called Eientei, a mansion that’s in the middle of a large bamboo forest. She took a technical interest to the console and I taught her how to code for it. Then she taught some of the other moon rabbits that lived and worked at Eientei. This in turn spawned the first “third party” developer. The person in charge of Eientei, Eirin Yagokoro, Eirin was nothing short of a medical genius and I had run out of meds at that point and so I was loading up on copper.

Eirin created a medicine that made me literally excrete copper nuggets (my Wilson’s disease was almost completely gone within several weeks).

 I had learned much about Gensokyo’s history and started to make games based off the various incidents that had happened. Some of which were popular, then I stopped making games based on such events. Diamond in the Rough was a relatively good game, awesome graphics, great sound, and even greater gameplay. But the event the game based around (The Brolli Diamondback incident that influenced the stopping of gapping in humans for screwing over). Production of the cartridge were ceased within two months, nowadays copies of the game are expensive and whatever copies DO make it to the States exceed 1 Million dollars.

I was gapped in because Yukari didn’t want to admit to the fact that she was going to kidnap my dad; I had forgiven her when she finally did.

The rest of the year had nothing relatively noteworthy. The fifth and final year was marked by a fallow release calendar.  I temporarily left AeroSoft in control of Yukari and Remilia, even telling them that I will go back to the company when it’s ready to spread to America.

I left Gensokyo, to a very nasty surprise. I was treated to a very large truancy charge. Apparently, after all the years of commenting against the staff of my school, Dr. Cohen finally had something to get back at me.

“Payback with back pay” seemed to be the mood of the setting in the courthouse, at least to the plaintiff.

It was a dour day for me; I had little fortitude against Dr. Cohen’s testimony. He brought up all the comments I said against him and his staff. I now face charges of truancy and slander (I’m not sure if that counts as assault and battery). Just when I was about to face the music, the end of the AeroSoft dream which was looking to be a giant crashing fiery heap of wasted time and energy. Two mysterious women entered the court, both wearing shades and a suit, one had black hair and the other one was blonde.

They both seemed familiar, the blonde’s one voice was similar to…no couldn’t be, can it? They brought in charts and pictures about…AeroSoft? One of them also had a…Super Mega Drive? Both of them also wore an AeroSoft pin that was a promotional item for a subscription of Bunbunmaru Newspaper. ..I suddenly recognized the two as Yukari and Remiu (Yukari was the only one speaking and Remiu kinda just stayed there for support).

The judge was surprised, the jury was surprised, Dr. Cohen was surprised, everyone was surprised.

“Impossible! They’re lying! How can someone irresponsible enough to take a 5 year illegal sojourn from the educational system be able to successfully start a corporation that big!” said Dr. Cohen in complete shock.

“To call off this case how about we pay you for…let’s say, damages?” Yukari responded.

“1,000 ye…dollars!” started Yukari

“$2,000…$5,000…$10,000…$50,000…$100,000” continue Yukari with an insidious grin.

The plaintiff was beginning to feel uncomfortable at the thought of the woman bribing off Dr. Cohen.

“$1,000,000…” Yukari said before being cut off by the judge.

“Sile…Silen..SLIENCE!” exclaimed the judge, who had a concerning stutter.

I was getting suspicious of the judge after the stutter; I jumped out of the box and grab for something from the judge. The guards were about to restrain me, but they saw the small tin bottle I was holding. That bottle had belonged to the judge.

To make a long story short, I went off Scott-free after the drunken judge was exposed. Dr. Cohen left embarrassed and wore a stolid expression when he drove off. I restrained myself from hugging the Gap Youkai (Yukari) and the Shinto Priestess (Remiu). I thanked them both, and I asked them why they wanted to save me.

“Me and Remilia have some conflicting views about the way your AeroSoft business was going to, so I and Remiu went to get you back.” Yukari explained.

“Well, I was going to bring AeroSoft back here, my home. Everyone in Gensokyo can still have my games and consoles, but I’ll have the main headquarters be here.” I said.

“The old headquarters will become a branch for the company.” I added.

A month later, I bought out a large office building in Natick. Two years later I released the Super Mega Drive 2 (which used HVDs [Holographic Versatile Discs] instead of USB cartridges). Three months after that was the last game released for the Super Mega Drive, a bowling game based off the Ebola scare of 2014, the game was only released in Gensokyo to avoid any trouble with the American public.

I added my brother, Trevor to the Board of Directors as well as Michael Scotton (I added him because of a promise I made him) and several of the largest shareholders (but due to the colorful cast of characters there, they rarely ever come).

That brings us here to the present, 2028. That is my story of my company from the start (very briefly) to how things are today. Someday I’ll leave my company to my son, as well as the secrets that lay beyond the Great Hakurei Barrier. Thank you for reading. –Anatasios Frank Topham Senior

Some new games!

Added to my collection is the classic Lunar: The Silver Star for the Sega CD and my first Gamecube title, Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker.

That's it really.

The Era of RPG Maker MV is Here?

I pre ordered RPG Maker MV off of steam (so I could get some free goodies) and It came out last Friday and I can safely say that MV probaby means Manual Version. Reason?

1. The removal of the resource manager, means you have to copy and paste things directly from folder to folder. What's that? You accidentally moved the files? Good luck finding them, especially if its enemy art.
2. You now need to have your music be converted into two formats. You can have in one or the other but you would have the risk of breaking compatibility by exporting to a different system so your kinda forced into a corner with this. It would be slightly easier to deal with if only the resource manager existed.
3. There are minimal items, armor, enemies, and weapons. I spent the past two days adding back most of the stuff. Try making about 125 skills by yourself and you'll see what I mean.
4. HTML5 exports can only be done by digging into the program files. Nice,

I have a Steam review detailing some more and I might make an even more fleshed out review for this blog. http://steamcommunity.com/id/aeroboxman/recommended/363890/

Hit the Road Marisa!

Yet another Walfas video I've made. This time, Marisa has gone on a bit of a "borrowing" run and have decided to go the Hakurei Shrine. However, things aren't as they seem...



So I've Touhou-fied Ray Charles' "Hit the Road Jack" and this is the result. Next time I might do a Spitting Image song.

About the future of Viagate

So I started to work on Viagate earlier this month after becoming impatient for RPG Maker MV thinking I'll have to wait until December or worse...January. So the the game is somewhere between 33% and 49% complete and I've dedicated this game to Marc Levasseur.

But then, RPG Maker MV came out for pre-order and I snatched it up almost immediately. Also its release date got announced too, October 23rd. So what's happening is that I have a game in mid-development that is about to be washed aside for a newer engine that has superior features. What I'm I to do.  So I'm afraid of having to cancel the first game in a year.

So take this as a announcement AND a cancellation warning for my latest masterpiece, Viagate.
I'll touch upon this subject at a later time.

RIP Marc Levasseur 1983-2015

This week, a dear teacher of mine, passed away this week. It was shocking to hear about his death to say the least. I liked the guy as a person for he did not feel like a teacher. But a friend with a great personality. He would help me through the time that I was in deep shit. But still. Here is his obituary (from Legacy.com)

"Marc Edward Levasseur, 32, of Holliston, died unexpectedly at home on Saturday, September 26th, 2015. Born in Framingham, he was the son of Margaret and Edward Levasseur of Holliston. Marc worked as a Special Education Teacher at Reed Academy in Framingham. He was currently attending Cambridge College working towards his Master's Degree in Special Education. Marc was an incredibly hard worker and was passionate and talented in working with children with special needs. He cared very deeply for his family and was particularly fond of his nephews and niece. He was loved and respected by his family, friends and coworkers. Besides his parents, he leaves behind two brothers, James Levasseur and his wife Elizabeth of Medway and Christopher Levasseur and his wife Amy of Holliston; his grandfather, George Levasseur of East Providence, as well as his four nephews, Connor, Parker, Andrew and Jaxon, and his niece, Catherine."

May he rest in peace.

EDIT: I forgot that his name is spelt with a C instead of a K. Sorry.

I got some new games!

The gaming collection page has been updated accordingly. I have obtained Goldeneye, Wave Race 64, and Jet Force Gemini. All for the Nintendo 64.

Poll Results

0...both sides, just zero. It was an interesting poll too. Dalek vs Terminator? Was that not entirely interesting? Jeez, I'm not going to be doing these polls if people don't vote on them. That's it really.

How much will RPG Maker MV cost me?

(If Himework's prediction is true)

RPG Maker MV: $120

+

Apple Developer's License (for Mac porting): $100/per year

+

Graphical Assets: $25-$50

=

At least: $245

At Most: $270

Holy shit is my future project gonna cost a pretty penny. Damn. Plus I'm wasting $100 a year to release free games onto Apple, I'm not really making any profit out of that. I can buy a Yuyuko Saigyouji costume with all the fixings for less!  

What will be my first RPG Maker MV project be?

So here's what I'm thinking for my first RPG Maker MV title (when it comes out of course). 

Synopsis

The game would be about some dude who is sick to shit about GamerGate and does something about it, by going straight to the source. After defeating Anita Sarkeesian and her army of SJW gangsters, you unveil a much bigger problem other than making the internet shut up. What is this problem exactly? The corporation, Viacom (the same one that owns MTV and Nickelodeon and the same company that always seems to have a problem with Youtube Poopers) is about to end all existence as we know it by giving god and the universe a copyright strike with a cease & desist order to life itself. So you team up with Youtube Pooper, a Shinto lawyer god sent by Amaterasu herself, and the Mysterious Mr. Enter (among others) to stop Viacom and its evil CEO. Who is the CEO of Viacom? How will you accomplish this feat of saving the world? You have to play the game to find out!

What is this RPG like?

This will return to the comedy-RPG style seen in my earlier Brony Quest games as a way of introduction to this new engine and to a new era in AeroSoft's history.

What will this accomplish?

This will be a satire on Gamergate, SJW's in general, corporate treatment of the internet, Viacom itself, Youtube Poop culture, and Americans as a whole. This game's plot and what it makes fun of is for humor's sake. So don't get your undies in a bunch about it.

When will this game be made?

Whenever the hell RPG Maker MV will come out and if I'll able to afford it. Himeworks is guessing it at $120, so I might be considering alternatives if I get impatient.

Why the hell are you planning on making another RPG? Why not Boxman?

Because RPG Maker is very accessible to use. The RPG genre is what I'm the most competent I'm at. Plus, let me tell you a secret: RPG Maker has pre made assets so I can quickly crank out a new game while the idea is still fresh in my mind (which is important so I don't get bored with the game). Unlike gamemaker where I have to make everything myself and using assets already made is a total clusterfuck, have you seen Boxman 3? It's a total mess to wade through! Especially since I copy and pasted Boxman 2 and I'm just removing a ton of stuff and making new things since everything else is there.

Conclusion

In conclusion, this game will be a back to roots sort of thing while I get used to a new RPG Maker engine and experiment with its features (if I'm able to use it). If I'm not able to make it for RPG Maker MV, then I'll make it for RPG Maker VX Ace. But wherever or whenever I'll make this game. I'll be sure about its production. Guaranteed.

Touhou Tuesday: Yakumo Confirmed!

Meanwhile at Hay Market...

Yakumo's in Boston Confirmed!

After the Escape is released!

After the Escape is the latest RPG from AeroSoft, now available for free download on Gamejolt.com!

PLOT

After the bad ending in "Aerohou Project 5: Nationalistic Seizure of Eastern Fantasy" where Dr. Cohen killed off most of the protagonists. The last of the Topham brothers escapes to space with the youkai of Eientei (Fujiwara no Mokou and Mystia Lorelei included), when one day they crash land on Palma in the Algo system. Where they meet Alis Landale after the defeat of Darkfalz. However, a killer robot is sent to destroy Victor and the others buts its data got corrupted and wanders off. Now you have to stop it before it causes mass destruction upon the masses of Algo.

I have alluded to this game's production several times here on this blog a multitude of times before so if your a careful reader and/or a total game theorist, here you go.

Otherwise, enjoy this brand spanking new game. Did I mention it's free?

Here's a new meme for ya!

Regarding the new RPG Maker engine

So about more than a week ago, I caught word about RPG Maker MV. RPG Maker MV will be able to export to Mac, iOS, Android, and HTML5, allowing for developers to release for a broader audience. Alternative mouse/touch controls so if you don't like keyboards, you're not limited. Javascript instead of Ruby so scripts are easy and just as powerful. Higher screen resolution and three separate map layers. Larger database capacity (2000 from 999, who the hell maxes out on that?). Both front-view and side-view battles are supported natively as well.

Sadly, no release date or price (which is very important to me) has been announced. As amazing this engine is (hopefully allowing for video files to be done other than OGV), I have a project in works using RPG Maker VX Ace.

This project will be the last game made in RPG Maker VX Ace as AeroSoft moves on into RPG Maker MV. We will also cut support on games that have been previously made in this engine. Starting with Rosen, which is now cancelled. The rest will soon follow, so check their respective Gamejolt pages (just search "AeroSoft"). This also means Brony Quest 3 is indefinitely cancelled, but like I said. Check Gamejolt.

Check later for anymore announcements on this new project in the upcoming future.

Aerohou Project Update!

Since all four written stories are completed. They have been place in the Aerohou page on one of the sidebars. This should also give reason why one of my games is Aerohou 5.

Enjoy!

Aerohou 4: The Final Battle

Me and Reimu looked onto the chared remains of her shrine. Picking through the debris to salvage what we could find. Her old AeroSoft Super Mega Drive 2 that Marisa gave her as a gift was battered but still intact. The donation box was the only thing untouched, other than the dust kicked up by the explosion.
"We must do something permanent about him." said Reimu.
"But how in the hell are we going to do that! Dr. Cohen just blew up your shrine." I replied.
"With danmaku." Reimu said, pulling out her gohei. She flew up.
"I'll go to Marisa's. You meet me there."
"Okay then." I said.
I went back to the AeroSoft branch and went into the artifical gap machine to call Trevor.
"Trevor! Get me a hoverboard and meet me in Gensokyo. Dr. Cohen is going to have his final victory!" I said, hanging up.
"Oh shit!" yelled Trevor upon hearing my message.
He went into his closet and packed whatever clothes made him look like a terrorist the most. He dashed off into his car, and drove for the AeroSoft HQ.


"This is the final push."
"Cohen-sama?" asked Rumia.
"What is it?" replied an anxious Dr. Cohen.
"Since you have spell cards. Do you know what the spell card rules are?" said Rumia meekly.
"Neverheard of them. Keep firing while I'm gone!" Dr. Cohen left.
Mima had a contact, who built him a jetpack. The jetpack had a bronze finish with seven rockets. Dr. Cohen was still a human, Incapable of flight unlike the numerous youkai.
"He doesn't know them, doesn't he?" Hina asked.
"Cohen-sama truely doesn't know what he's getting into." Rumia replied, unsure of Dr. Cohen's fate.


Trevor rushed into the teleporter with the contents with him. He arrived at the branch and left, running towards the Forest of Magic. An artillery shell missed the building and Trevor narrowly escaped the path of the explosion that followed. He continued to run. He changed into his makeshift terrorist outfit and came into Marisa's house.
"There you are!" I said, gratefully.
"So that's your brother, da ze?" Marisa questioned.
"Yes. Anyway, Marisa. You go destroy the artillery cannons while I and Reimu go after Cohen." I explained.
"What about me?" Trevor asked.
"Warn the rest of Gensokyo. Ask for help where you can!"
"Okay. Just where the hell I'm I going?"
"Just run around you'll find someone somewhere. Gensokyo isn't that big." I explained to Trevor.
Trevor walked out immediately after. I grabbed the hoverboard and left with Reimu. Going into the skies above.
"Reimu? What exactly are spell card rules?"
"The spell card rules just say that you can't kill anyone and everyone has the right to a fair fight with me or otherwise."
"I was thinking, Dr. Cohen might not know those rules exist."
Reimu went silent. Either out of the fact that we might get killed or she was concentrating on finding Dr. Cohen. Soon we where stopped by a certain gap hag.
"Hello there." greeted Yukari.
"Hi Yukari." said an impatient Reimu.
"Hello Yukari, just an on the fly question. But do you want to help us find Cohen?" I asked.
"Hmmm...sure." said Yukari, omniously.
The three of us flew into the early evening. Ready for a danmaku fight. But the uncertainty of death hung in the air, at least for me anyway.


Trevor bursted through the door of the Scarlet Devil Mansion.
"Stop!" yelled Sakuya.
But Trevor continued to run towards where Remilia was, unbeknownst to him. He stopped to catch his breath, scrathed by stumbling through foliage.
"Yes?" said Remilia.
"Reimu...Frank...Dr. Cohen...Big fight, need help." Trevor pleaded, out of breath.
"A big fight against Dr. Cohen?"
"Yes..." said Trevor, before being cut off by a loud bang.
Trevor ducked to the floor as the distant sound of crumpling wood and tile that followed the explosion. Remillia stayed in her seat unflinching. Sakuya came into the room. But stayed quiet unsure to kick Trevor out or check on the damage.
"Sakuya. Go fix whichever part of the mansion just caved in." commaned Remillia.
Remillia flew off without a word. The sky was turning dark. Trevor had no choice but to stay. But staying mean't being a sitting duck for the shells that seem to rain down on Gensokyo.


It wasn't very hard for Marisa to find the artillery cannons. The large metal tube with a tire on each side, leaning up into the sky. She whipped out her mini-hakkero and shot a master spark right through the pieces of war equipment. Hina and Rumia scattered to the sky and tried to escape. Not from Marisa, but from Dr. Cohen's ruthlessness.
"Come back here!" Marisa called out. But Rumia and Hina had split into two different directions making it difficult to find them.
"I lost them. Stupid bakas." Marisa said, to no one in particular.
At least she destroyed the artillery. So no more shells will batter Gensokyo. But she had been unaware of the damage. Marisa saw the leftovers of the shrine. Whatever had been salvagable had been made into a pile parralel to the wood and burnt paper wreck.
She went back to her place but to find Alice Margatroid there.


Remilla had joined up with Reimu and the others. They flew until they came across a figure. With a bronze back and flames coming out of seven shutes.
"Ahhhhh..." said the figure turning around.
"Dr. Cohen." I said angrily.
"So you came here to be punished for your work."
"You destroyed my shrine and you've bombed out Gensokyo!" called out Reimu.
"You shouldn't oppress youkai like that." Dr. Cohen became condesending.
Reimu's yin-yang orbs appeared beside her. "Let's end it here." I said.
"Bring it on, Topham." Dr. Cohen said.
Reimu started her barrage of ofuda. While Remillia and Yukari began launching bits of danmaku. I was dodging whatever came at me. Dr. Cohen also did the same. But it didn't take too long for him to use his first spell card.
"Second Night "Jeruslem Barrier"" shouted Dr. Cohen as crude bullets of danmaku formed three spining circles, each moving in a different direction.
Reimu shot at the barrier, but her ofuda bounced off. Then the barrier exploded! Shooting bits of shattered danmaku  across the sky. I nearly fell off my hoverboard. But the shrine maiden, vampire, and gap hag remained unscathed. The fight was begining to get serious. Dr. Cohen flew up and used another spelll card "First Night  "Mose's Stance"" Spiritally charged projectiles came rushing out and narrowly Yukari's shoulder. Remiu kept shooting ofuda until it hit Dr. Cohen's jetpack. One of the booster rockets stopped working and he stumbled, upon regaining control. He went for yet another spell card.
"Third Night "Shinto Eraser"" Reimu was hit right in the chest. She was bruised but stood her ground. Remillia was hit as well, but was less damaged than Reimu.
"Death to Shinto and its idiosyncrasies!" yelled Dr. Cohen.
"You bastard!" replied Reimu, and she pulled out one of her spell cards.
"First Card "Fantasy Orb String"" and string of orbs appeared! Dr. Cohen was hit, his left shoulder was bruised. Yet his hatred of Gensokyo, Shinto, and ultimately AeroSoft kept him in a fighting spirit.
"Fourth Night "Scarlet Blight"" Remillia was badly hit and she fell to the ground. She landed back first onto the hard ground, creating a loud crunching noise. She tried to get up, but her broken back wouldn't allow it. Yukari hit Dr. Cohen in the back inside one of her gaps, disabling yet another booster.
"Stop it Edward!" I said.
"This is not how you should be!"
"Your biased court comeback! Your resilience to my revenge and my avengence of Reed Academy!" Dr. Cohen said, having none of it.
"You truely are an evil man. Using your religion to destroy Gensokyo."
"Reimu murders youkai with her Shinto powers! But Judaism is stronger, faster, better." Dr. Cohen poorly reasoned.
"Its not true!" I said
"Have it your way Topham! You retarded autisic punk! The same goes with your parents."
Dr. Cohen grabbed for another spell card. "Fiveth Night "Topham's Punishment"" The deadly danmaku passed by me. The hoverboard groaned from the sheer intensity of movement. Attempting to break free. The danmaku knocked me off my board. Yukari caught me and gapped me back onto the board. Danmaku bullets and missle were spraying everywhere at this point. (They weren't actual bullets and missiles that outside world millitaries used, it's just to describe their behavior).
"Sixth Night "Hakurei's End"" The spell card knocked out Reimu and she too fell to the ground but her fall was broken by a tree. But the branches proded and stabbed Reimu as she tumbled to ground on her stomach. Sustained several broken bones and major bruising, maybe some internal bleeding of some kind. She was unconscious
"Seventh Night "Yakumo's Death"" The danmaku aimed straight for Yukari and she too was knocked unconscious. She landed on the ground flat on her ass. Before faceplanting the ground hunched over.
"You friends are out!" said Dr. Cohen.
"After I'm done with you. I'll finish off your insurgencies and I'll takeover Gensokyo for the benefit of me and mankind!" He continued.
"You're dead to me, like you always have been to me." I said, pissed off at his aggresive manner.
Dr. Cohen reached for one of the his spell cards when Flandre Scarlet appeared! "Taboo "Cranberry Trap"" Almost undodgable danmaku came raining down. Knocking out one of Dr. Cohen's jetpack boosters.
"Taboo "Four of  a Kind"" Flandre split into three other Flandre's. The four Flandres shot danmaku. I came up with a plan.
"Hey Flandre!" I screamed.
"Can I borrow the Lævateinn?"
"Why?" she replied.
"I'm going to go in for the kill!"
I flew by her and grabbed the Lævateinn. It was a tad hard to handle but the situation was dire.
"Taboo "Kagome, Kagome"" Danmaku ensnarled Dr. Cohen and took out another booster. The jetpack was straining to hold the increasingly injured Dr. Cohen.
Dr. Cohen retailiated with "Fourth Night "Scarlet Blight"" but to no avail. Flandre was too strong and powerful for Edward to handle. But her three other selves dissapated. Dr. Cohen struggled to stay fighting. Knowing that Gensokyo's end will come. He thought to himself "Cohen wills it!".
Another jetpack booster stopped working and actually broke off, almost hitting Remillia's head. "Taboo "Maze of Love"" Dr. Cohen's last auxillary booster broke down. His legs bore smallish medium gashes. Scars and cuts dot his body. His clothes were ripping away.
Flandre launched more danmaku and I flew up high as high as the hoverboard allowed me. I held the Lævateinn and jumped off the hoverboard, directly above Dr. Cohen. I held it downward hoping to end Dr. Cohen, it didn't hae to end this way. But his own stubborness lead to his insanity of destroying Gensokyo and me. The court case, the bombings, the Hakurei Shrine's destruction. This was the only way to stop a potentialy deadly war with the man.
I said the most awesome, yet strangest thing. " Gensō gō no namae ni wa, shobatsu sa remasu yo! (In the name of Gensokyo, you'll be punished!)". The danmaku directly hit me and Dr. Cohen as the Lævateinn touched him. I blacked out.


I woke up. There was whiteness, I got up and wandered off until I came across two chairs one was occupied by an exact copy of me, except dressed in leather, lots of it. 
"Who are you?" I asked.
"I'm Neo. The embodiment of your own mind in a personable manner." The look a like responded.
"I'm dead?"
"You are neither dead or alive. You have knocked yourself out pretty hard. As such your life is hanging for dear life and I have some options for you." Neo replied.
"I have are two pills. The red pill ends your life and your sipirt shall travel across the Sanzu River to be judged. The blue pill returns you to reality." He explained.
I immediately took the blue pill. "Everyone awaits you in the real world." Neo said, before everything faded to white, then flashed to black.


I opened my eyes. I look around, I'm in Eientei. There was an IV in my right arm. My legs felt stiff to move. Reisen checked upon me.
"Eirin! Frank's awake!" Reisen called out.
Eirin rushed in and saw me my conscious body.
"Frank. You been here for about eighteen hours. You've survived quite the fall." Eirin said.
"Where's Reimu and the others?" I asked.
"They're in the other room." Eirin replied.
I got up and walked to the room next door. Reimu had a large cast around her waist. Remillia was somewhat woozy from the pain killers that Eirin gave her. Yukari was asleep, but an ice pack was bandaged across the side of her face.
"If we where all knocked out. Who brought us here?"
Eirin responded, "Flandre and your brother carried you four in. You were all severly injured. Quite unusual for a danmaku fight."
"Dr. Cohen was ruthless. It was his lack of understanding for the spell card rules that lead to us almost becoming dead." I explained.
I had clearly remembered the night's battle but the ending was fuzzy. I asked where Dr. Cohen's body was. Eirin said that it was just me, Yukari, Reimu, and Remillia. Dr. Cohen has to be dead. It was just impossible for him to just get up and move away.


"Is it finished?" Mima asked.
"Yes." said the figure.
"This time I'll get the Hakurei Shrine. Maybe untouched this time. Thanks Rika."
"Your welcome Mima." said Rika as she pulled down the lever causing volts of electricity to enter the human cyborg combination.
"That should do it." Rika finished.
The half human, half robot woke up.
"Where I'm I?" said the body with a metallic reverb.
"Cohen-sama. Your upgrade is complete, welcome back."
"Ahhhh..." Said Dr. Cohen as moved his new robotic arm.
"That asshole Topham will pay and his Shinto bitch too!" Dr. Cohen proclaimed.
Dr. Cohen was now Mecha Cohen. A being hellbent on destroying Gensokyo for his own gain. To avenge himself by destroy Frank Topham!


Things went back to normal at AeroSoft. The games were selling, the hardware was selling, and AeroSoft fronted the money needed to rebuild the damage. The shrine was rebuilt, the Human Village was repaired, and the Scarlet Devil Mansion's broken section of roof was well...reroofed. 
This was the first human incident in Gensokyo's history. Dr. Cohen had proven that youkai aren't the only ones that can cause trouble. This ends Dr. Cohen's reign of terror upon Gensokyo. AeroSoft continued onward and forward. Bye for now.
