In the hallway

Persica the director of the 16Lab and Tactical Doll Scientist. She is the one who created the T-Dolls in AR team and deeply involved in the conspiracy involving Lunasia. Now, she is looking for her old friend since she and Lycoris haven't contact him for long years since the G.H.O.S.T hired him from 90wish. When she recognized that name on the wall, it was Henry J Morse's lab.

Persica: There you are, Henry, *thought* Finally, after many years, I can finally reunited him since Lycoris is dead. 

As she enter the lab, she noticed a Doll maintenance workshop, but its different, they had advance hardware than 16Lab, Henry is the director of 32Lab.

Persica: Huh, didn't except, Henry built his doll.

She looked around his desk, until upon notice a tube, appeared to be dead Cryptid alien as she freak out, but the Cryptid was still in cryo. She was relief of that creature was about to attack. She didn't know why Henry working on the creatures, until upon notice a monitor screen appeared to be a record of his work. She walks over the moniter, sit on his desk and click enter buttom.

Persica: Alright, let's see what you are hiding from me and Griffin and Kryuger, Henry.

As the video played, Henry began a speech of his daily works as he fix his camera. While Persica watch Henry's log record.

Henry: Is it on? Perfect, I'm Henry J Morse, director of 32Lab and scientist of the G.H.O.S.T. This is day 1, So I was hired by Merrick, and Hesh hired me and joined the G.H.O.S.T and they wanted to me revive my own creations.

Persica: Creation?

Henry: Before I join 90wish, met my friend and then hired to G.H.O.S.T, I was a military scientist and technology defense, I was begin my developing the robotics, in my secret. I developed my creation of robotic stealth. Until luckily they had the winner. So I scrapped my project. After I hired, they wanted me to revive my creation of the stealth robotoics.

Persica was impressed, Henry was working on his creation of robotic stealth and revived by G.H.O.S.T., as she watched, the video next log is day 21.

Henry: Day 21, as I said, about the stealth robototic project, before I built this, G.H.O.S.T send us to investigate the Colorado, that sight when the ODIN strikes in America.

The video shows a group of science including Henry himself alongside with G.H.O.ST soldiers expedition in Temples of the Cryptid.

Persica couldn't believe in her eyes, she saw a video records of the group of science and soldiers enter the Colorado underground, where the Cryptid temple was stable, next they show, is the red mysterious tree made of alien origins. She could feel her eyes knowing Henry encounters the creatures.

Henry: The Cryptid were reawakened after the Odin strikes, while heavy fighting the Federations, the cryptid launch attack on Colorado, US send the Rapid Reaction force the CIF Team Four to investigate the Outrbreak in Caldera Park but disappeared within first hour deployment. The US military send the Task Force Spectre to destroy any Cryptid hives they encountered. 

She then switches to another video shows back in 2025 is about 50 years ago,

In this video shows the US military Task Force Spectre fighting those creatures, this is their times when military encountered the creatures, next the soldiers planted the nuclear into the hive. Next video shows the soldiers who were in the helicopter watching the nuclear explode destroyed the cryptid.

Persica never thought she haven't seen those creatures before, next shows Henry in the expedition with group of science and G.H.O.S.T soldiers and the MI6 Archer who were studying the obelisks using the optical scanner.

David Archer: This MI6 David Archer. We were on the Colorado Caldera park, what is left of bit. Me along with G.H.O.S.T and science decide to study the Obelisk and the Cryptid Creature...

... Why the fuck do I need a support with G.H.O.S.T. 

...The G.H.O.S.T captured the creatures to study them to their lab. Despite the Relic Technology was used today, by other countries. The relic research has multiple applications and has been responsible for crucial advance in human engineering, from the Assault Artillery platform.

David Archer: So, as for the Cryptids, the G.H.O.S.T didn't use the Relic technology. Instead, they use the alien technology that the Science discovered inside the temple in secret. The Cryptid left behind after they wipe out by the G.H.O.S.T and CIF Team 1.

The video shows the science discovery of the Cryptid Technologies. 

Persica: Those things don't look like relic.

She types on the keyboard checking every record, showing list of the Cryptids creatures they capture: For example: Scout, Scorpions, hunters, Seekers, Rhinos, Lepers, Phantom, Seeders, Bombers, Mammoths, including this creature with wings flying around like a bird as she clicks one of the Cryptid Creatures as she heard Henry's voice.

Speciemen: Gurgulio

Codename: Gargoyles

Henry: The paleo biologists have a Latin name for this new breed of flying cryptid. The rest codename Gargoyles.

Henry: From my research from Obelisk, the ancestors you known them, they were the master of the Cryptid Serves. Anywho, the ancestor's airborne assault troops silent and fast. They were invisible to radar.

Henry: That thing is strong enough to rip the tail boom of the Apache gunship.

Henry: Gargoyles is very important to our technology, the alien technology is very rare than Relic Technology. We can use the Gargoyles to extract any technologies we need to invisible from the enemy radars.

Persica: *thought* So that why, those things are invisible the radar just like happened in Belarus.

Next she clicked the video shows a container with a organs inside, as well as an ancestor.

Henry: The Cortex. The preserved brain tissue of a living Ancestor in a casing design for tranporting donor organs. It can sucks up bio-electric energy, stores it like a psychic abttery, then detonates like a bomb. They say the radiation is harmless to humans except our Dolls. I doubt that, but the pulse is focused and amplified. It'll flash-fry a cryptid's brain in less than a second...

... We stored the Cortex brain into Dolls including Hesh's son. We transfer the brain tissue to another person. So we test the cryptid to command by humans or Dolls.

The video shows, T-Doll (GHOST) begin the test of the cryptid, as Cryptid walk closer, as T-Doll pat the creatures. Next is Markus Hesh's son, he did the same thing. Persica was shocked, that the Cortex was transfer to Dolls and Markus's himself into their brain.

And then final files, Persica looked at the mysterious project, it said,

"Project: Grim Reaper"

Persica: Project, Grim Reaper?

Henry: So looking at my files?

Persica freak out as she jumped out from the chair as she finally met Henry.

Persica: H-Henry?!

Henry: Its been a while Persica, like 60 years?

Persica standing in distance as Henry got his coffee near the door. She asked Persica an explaination.

Persica: Henry, explain, why haven't contact me and Lycoris before he died, and what are those things creatures?

Henry felt nothing about Persica willing to talk to him explanation to her about his secret project, he put down his coffee and sign before he talks to her.

Henry: Well, after I left 90wish. The G.H.O.S.T knew that Relic Technology is far more greater. So they decide to investigate the Colorado, were the site of Odin strike during the Federation war. I was part of science group, expedition inside the Cryptid of what is left behind. 

Persica: Then why are those creatures in those tubes here?

Persica then listen to his story as he spoke.

Henry: It was three hundred million years ago.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Three million years ago

Before emergence of human life and creation of Relic by unknown Civilization.

Henry: *Offscreen* Before Dinosaurs, The Volcanic Earth was inhabited by a large network of humanoid species known as Cryptids connect through a web of symbiotic relationship. The primordial life force on the planet, their brains were similar to that of a human, allowing them to coordinate and communicate themselves.

 Henry: *Offscreen* The source of their power was the large fungal colonies they cultivated and protected, which emitted pheromones stimulating the creatures 'cold-blooded metabolism. Due to rapid cellular regeneration and the reliance on geothermal heat rather than sunlight.

The scene shows a Cryptid scout saw some unknown Civilization developed Relics.

Henry: *Offscreen* Undoubtfully, Unknown Civilization made the creation of the Relics. As for Cryptid, their Relics is way more Valuable. The Ancestor create their own version, the Cryptid Technology.

The scene shows the war between Cryptid and Unknown Civilization, then it shows a giant Aquatic guardian known as Kraken a Cryptid Sea monster and protector of the colonies.

Henry: *Offscreen* After many years, Cryptid survived, and Unknown civilization was extinct. Five thousand years ago, new life emerged on the desolate world, the Ancestors use the ability to hypnotic over dozens of humans capable of translating their language with virus known as Mimetic Virus. Cryptid will be remain below their feets until the ODIN strikes

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Persica couldn't believe in her eyes, of what Henry, about the creatures known as Cryptid, they were the humanoid species and they're original from Earth, as well as their xenobiology and biological interactions. They were the one who made the Cryptid Relics to make their relics better than original relic by Unknown Civilization, then she learns that Cryptids were the one who put down the Unknown Civilization to extinct.

Henry continues story of how he, his expedition group from G.H.O.S.T went to investigate the Colorado, Caldera Peak.

Henry: It 2030, after the Federation War, I was part of the science group in expedition in the Volcanic site of Caldera Peak.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

May 27th 2030

Colorado, Caldera Peak site of the Odin strike

Henry, his science research group and G.H.O.S.T soldier including David Archer went on investigate the site of the Cryptid Colonies and the Ark.

Henry: *Offscreen* I was part of the expedition team, I began collections samples from the corpse of the Creatures. Archer was MI6, willing to see some Species for his experiment and research. 

Archer then looked at the inscribed within the Obelisk, while the science began study. As for Henry, he looked around seeing some trees were red and light was orange-yellish, it's way similar to original tree.

Henry: *Offscreen* While I study about the Cryptid's colonies, I stumble upon the mysterious door below the destroying ARK. When I touch it, I discovered the Cryptid Relic that left behind after the Nuke strike on Colorado. Then Archer arrives along with the team.

Henry see Archer and the group surprised of discovery of the Cryptid Relic that were lay dorment below the destroying ARK.

Henry: *Offscreen* Since the discovery of the Cryptid Technology, it will be able to advance of our technology in secret. 

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Persica: So that's why you discover the relic below the ARK?!

She was impressed at Henry's story, she realized Henry and his expedition team led by David Archer to investigate the Cryptid destroying Colonies after the nuke. She learned, that Cryptid Technology is way far more advanced than Relic Technology.

Persica: What exactly planning to use the Cryptid Technology?

Henry: Making my creation of my 7th Gen Stealth Tactical Dolls.

Persica: Tactical dolls?

Henry: While you and Lycoris working on the Automonous Dolls in 2033, while I was one who built the Tactical Doll capable of Stealth to avoid the Radar thanks to the Cryptid Technology, it will able to unseen the identities.

Persica was impressed, Henry built his Tactical Stealth Doll in early to keep it secret from Public before the Dolls introduced in public in 2033.

Persica: And Henry?

Henry: Yes?

Persica: What was about project Grim Reaper? 

Henry: Project Grim Reaper is very special for the Tactical Dolls and Humans. Grim Reaper was name after the Death, the Grim Reaper. The project was used to enhance the Dolls to activate their modes, full of motions, anger and most in danger Jack the Ripper. 

Persica surprised Henry was working on the Project Grim Reaper to enhanced their dolls into their Modes, Jack the Ripper remained hidden in Riveter (Foley). Until suddenly, a speaker was on.

Merrick: *Speaker* Henry, report to the briefing room immediately and so with Persica.

Henry sigh and he's gets up along with her did the same when both headed to the Briefing room.

Persica: Henry.

Henry turned his head at Persica

Persica: It's good to see you alive.

Henry smirked as he accepted.

Henry: And good to see you.

Both then walked in the hallway heading to the briefing room, where all commanders, and officers had a meeting.
