'Well, these are coming along nicely. Well, they look good to me. I need someone to compare them to though. Hey System how do I check the details on my abilities and stuff? Do I just think real hard and that's how I get it or what?'

System: You will need an ability to do that. Or have someone explain them to you who knows what they are.

'Well System can you tell me what each are, and in detail please and thank you?'

System: I cannot.

'Why the hell not!?'

System: Watch your tone. I am an older model System the ability to check on oneself should be earned through skills, traits, or talents. I do not coddle User you must earn your power and abilities. Once you learn them I will remind you of what cannot be done, if it is needed.

'You know you are kinda becoming more human-ish and less A.I./Guide type thingy. What else can you help me with then?'

System: I can tell you where your abilities come from. Also can tell you how to advance them and what to look out for in the future. I would prefer you learn mostly on your own since this is a Tutorial. It allows for more points to be given as well.

'Eh fine I got it, I need to figure more out on my own. Where do these Misty Fist Come from?'

System: The Shirai Ryu was unavailable to your body at the time so it was returned for the Lin Kuei.

Due to personal belief's and mental attitude, the abilities deviated to a Water Aspect instead of Ice Aspect that the Lin Kuei Bai Han excelled in.

'Holy shitballs! That's pretty sweet. Wait you mean Lin Kuei like Mortal Kombat..those Assassins...I am boned I do not know how to be all Assassiny and what not. I am like a 100% sure being a headstrong brute and whimsy is all I am good at.'

System: Yes that is correct you are good at that. With me as your System, I can tap into that knowledge and mental shards to help you improve in those way on your own.

'Uh huh, that sounds like a plan then. Now wait, why am I not with Lluvia, where is she/he?'

System: Lluvia is fine. She is going through the procedures to be a Full System. Am I not good enough for you User. ?

'Um was just asking in general, I am still alive so you must have been doing something good right... or have you been messing up and I haven't notice. Gonna hope that's not the case. Don't need the blind leading the blind.' Couldn't help saying quickly as I raised my hands frantically and waved them in the air.

System: Get into a comfortable position to unlock more of your Lin Kuei ability.

The floor was too cold so I stood up. My legs were shoulder length apart. Had my arms crossed in front my chest with my fingers loose. Took a deep breath. "Hoo ooh" I soon regretted it. "Kook Kook" I coughed up some spittle. It reeked so bad, the smell of rusted old iron or something was in the air.

System: Take small breath's with your nose and keep your mouth closed. Afterward, use your Misty Fist.


'Lv1 5/5 Misty Fist activate.' I could see the moisture in the air gather around my fingertips up to the next knuckle. But it felt weird and different somehow. I looked down to see my feet were enclosed in traces of water droplets.

System: Offensive Ability Misty Fist proceeding to the next level. Lv2 5/50 Misty Fist activate Congratulations on boosting your first Physical Combat Ability. 1 Attribute awarded. Recommend apply to Wisdom.

'Ok apply it to Wisdom' I was able to think a little clearer as soon as I said that.

System: Continue to practice on this for the next 2 hour's while we work on the next pull you received.

Your other pull was tech based. It was from the Halo Universe: Lifeworkers-LifeShaper was an occupation in the Forerunner society. They specialize in genetics in one aspect and a few others. Due to your Intelligence attribute and your Wisdom attribute you are unable to use this pull to it's fullest. However, it will come in handy for you personally, and socially as well for your future endeavors and recruitment.

'That sounds interesting and a little foreboding.'

After a little over of two hours, I received a prompt on my Misty Fist increasing in level. Little mist droplets now reached all the way up to my wrist. They looked more sparse and less concentrated than what was around my fingertips. The droplets around my fingertips looked more, I dunno full I guess you could say they weren't connected but they were closer they than before, at least I think they were. Try to will them connected but before I could try for more than a minute and alert caught my attention, and The System stopping me. Telling me to get ready. For what I didn't know.

System: Lv3 2/100 Misty Fist Congratulations. Get ready User it is time to finish The Tutorial.

I quickly placed my hands behind my back and just waited. Whatever was gonna happen I was ready to pop off my Adrenaline Rush to buy myself some time.

'Chishh' The wall to the front of me separated and two people with guns walked forward, they were decked out in blue and white combat gear.

System: Intelligence Check 13.

No Two Turians walked forward the helmets being to long in the back kind of gave it away. The tall stature could only be attributed to taller Humans and maybe Vorcha. But the Vorcha don't wear armor really. "What the hell is going on here!?" Couldn't help but mumble before I remember to just think about the info in my head.. That was a little weird to be able to associate that with the race so easily.

Blue Suns Grunt Lv3 was floating above the guard before me. "Welcome to Purgatory. Your gonna be here a long time you see. If you behave yourself... everything will go well. If you don't behave yourself it's all gonna go bad." The first guard walked around in front me slowly punctuating all these words very sternly, only stumbling every now and then. It seems like he was trying to harden himself up to come off more strongly. Or maybe he was the new guy.

"Alright already, Can you give it a rest already you have been practicing that for hours and that was the best you could come up with? That was pathetic." The second guard in back taunted the first guard.

"Shut up bet you can't do any better." The guard yelled at his partner with his hands waved up in the air. 'If he didn't have both hands on the gun I might have been able to get it from him.'

"Step out and let a pro show you how to frighten a prisoner, especially a new human one." The second guard yelled at his partner. This seemed like the perfect time to act.

The Second Guard stepped into the cell doorway and began to walk in. The first Guard turned his back to me and as soon as he took his first step to move to pass his partner, I activated my ability.

'Lv1 31 /50 Adrenaline Rush activate.' I charged at him, placing my hands togethor I swung my hands like I would a bat. 'Hopefully, my Misty Fist can do something against all that armor.

System: Constitution Check 7

'Thwack'

"Cough" The First Guard lost balance and lost some of his grip on the gun in his hands. I saw he still had a pstol on his back should have grabbed that instead. Before he could regain balance I kicked him the side of his leg. Sending him falling to the side at a bad angle.

"Crick, Kuh" With a sickening crack done to his head as he hit the cell wall another sound could be heard. One of gunfire.

"Chew, Chew, Chew" The Second Guard opened fire, with barely enough time to move out the way before my Adrenaline rush ran off I rolled to the front of the guard. That wasn't the best idea but I wanted out of this cell. Catching a glimpse at my health when I finished my risky hedgehog roll it was not worth it. I felt sick the moment I activate Adrenaline Rush while in here.

Health 45/61

"Bam" We hit the ground pretty dam hard.

Time returned to normal. The guard was laid under me. I tried to sit up, to get to a good position but I felt way to groggy. Gun in hand ready to fire the Guard was definitely ready to mess me up good.

"Prisoner your are in deep shit I am gonna skin you alive!" He looked past me at the cell, at his partner. I could see his hands clench around his gun. His offhand came swinging at my face. "A good beat down and a few bullet wounds in you won't' matter to potential buyers." Fat chance I was gonna let him get freebies on me. I swung at his head with all I had.

"Slick, Crack, Sluch" My fist going right through his Shield catching him in the helmet. It felt mushy. 'What the fuck?' My fist was encased in .. well I guess brain matter It was the weirdest thing I felt in my life.

"Chew, Chew, Chew" The gun rattled off. Took three shots along my right side of my chest.

Health 30/61 'Damn I need some armor.'

'That was really dumb.' But that wasn't the weirdest thing. My fist went right through his helmet. 'How was that possible. System what the hell is going on?'

System: Finish the tutorial and I will have answers for you.

'Fine' I get up and walk back into the cell.

"Some..body.. hel..p.. me.." The TheFirst Guard was all mangled up and leaning against the wall mumbling.

"Don't worry man, I got you I need to test something anyway." I reached down and push my hand against his chest nothing happened. "Hmm I have to be missing something, but what. Maybe I have to I know' ... after a pause I took a swing at his head next.

"Slick, Crack, Sluch" My fist went right through into his skull.

System: Wisdom Check 16

"Bleargh urp" I threw up all over the guy. 'Good to know just executing someone is something to make me still sick to my stomach. I was starting to worry about myself for a second.' I flipped him over. I still needed his gun.

"Fwoosh" After grabbing his gun I felt a wave of energy flush down my spine. I no longer felt nauseated. Felt calm and focused. 'Should I ask the System or is it just gonna tell me later.'

"Tsk, so many question so little time." I Picked up the gun and grabbed the thermal clips on my way out. With no place to carry them, I placed the two under my armpits. I inspected the gun while I moved down the corridor trying to dodge out the camera's viewpoint. To much noise was made in the corridor and the cell. Gonna have to be more careful in the future. I am not good at being careful

System: Dexterity Check:17 Intelligence Check 13

'I felt the info about the rifle come to the surface of my thoughts. Along with the info on how to move out of the viewpoints of cameras and people.

System: Hahne-Kedar Assault Rifle tends to jam and has low impact power. The go-to gun for the Low-Rank personnel who need a gun to fire for cheap. Need to spray down your enemies this is the gun for you. Cause let's be honest you couldn't afford anything else, enemies moved down with quantity not quality.

'Was the System trying to be funny with the info it poured in? Welp, I'll use what I can.' My thoughts were becoming easier and easier to navigate through, hopefully, I can get the hang of this.

After 6 minutes of moving all over the place and dodging out the way of patrol guards, I couldn't help but wonder why the alarms were not going off. Is it because of the construction throughout the entire base.

"Dammit." I came to the end of the hallway a mech suit was going around moving some container racks. They were being extra careful with this stuff wonder what it was. Moved my gun up to my right eye. Checked through the sites of my rifle.

System: Perception Check 19

A mech suit and a few guys walking around. 'I count 6 all togethor. A crane in the overhead looks disabled cant use that shit. I shuttle off to the side still open. That's my ticket out of here I hope.

'Red drums.. what the hell could be in there. There are no explosive signs on it, no chemical signs as well, should I just shoot it and hope for the best, but they are unmarked.

"Achoo" Couldn't help but sneeze, hopefully, no one heard over all the machinery. Why couldn't there be any gear lying around or something. Turian clothes are too small so I couldn't get into the guards clothes.

'There's no time. Here's to hoping it goes boom.

'Lv1 47 /50 Adrenaline Rush activate' I fire six shots into the red drum in the mech's claws.

"Chew"..The first shot catches the container. It leaks a little.

"Chew" .. The second shot catches the back of the mech right in a hose.

"Chew"... The third shot flies off wildly and hits the crane base.

"Chew"..The fourth shot catches the base of the mech's claw

"Chew" ..The fifth shot catches the container.

"Chew" ...The sixth shot catches the container. and then it happened.

"Boom!!" The container burst open. catching two of the workers in a purple flame.

"Boom!! Ziip ZZt" The crane that I thought was none operational goes haywire and swings its load, dropping it on the shuttle.

'Fuck there goes my ride!' Couldn't help but look dejected at the sight before me. 'I should not have shot that container, well least that's fewer enemies. Don't think anything else bad can happen.'

"Bwoop" "Bwoop"

"Prisoner has escaped, armed and dangerous proceed with caution!" A voice yells over the intercomm.

"Well shit..."
