Back to the Future (Locked to Penguins)

[rushing_wings]

[For the past few weeks Ichitaka has made himself scarce. In fact he seems to have disappeared from the Chalice completely. That's because he's somehow gotten himself to San Francisco.]

That was...an experience. I really hope I never have to do that again.

[He approaches a familiar house and knocks on the door, hoping to god that this timing worked out.]

[Oh hey, and there she is! No ribbons now, but she's looking well.]

...Ichitaka? What are you doing back here?

...Where's Rushbird?

[rushing_wings]

To wish you a happy birthday of course.

[Already losing his cool.]

Oh it's...around.

[bakaribbon]

Well...if you say so.

Come on in. Can I get you anything? Tea, coffee...

[rushing_wings]

No no it's fine well um...I actually got you a present also.

[He's not moving from his spot.]

[bakaribbon]

Eh? A present?

Why?

[rushing_wings]

Because I could and I wanted to.

[He points up to the sky, not saying another word.]

[bakaribbon]

[Still just staring at you.]

[rushing_wings]

Just trust me.

[More blank staring. There's a slight breeze...and Haruka glances up, just in time to see a massive shape of metal plummet from the sky. There's a huge explosion as it crashes, dust filling the air as every car alarm on the block goes off. Ichitaka and Haruka are thrown to the ground by the shockwave, leaving them unable to do much but look up at that towering giant of steel! And it's name is...it's name is...it's name is...!]

[bakaribbon]

IMBER?!

[The great white robot just flashes its eyes in response.]

Re: 2/2

[rushing_wings]

I THOUGHT WE WERE LEAVING OUT THE EXPLOSION.

[He's smiling like a loon even as he shouts this out. Of course he turns to Haruka after Imber makes his massive entrance.]

Happy Birthday Haruka.
