The keyhole flashes green and ejects Songblade out from it. It splits into two with some steam hissing out from old hydraulic mechanisms just as the screen forms back on the left side of the device.
It glares at you once with a blue light and then reveals Phoenix's face beneath the static. Not his helmet or his gas mask-- his actual face.
He is tanned, Filipino, and looks to be around 23. That could easily be mistaken because of the crown of grey hairs scattered along his spiky black hair. Faded scars decorate his face in the shape of a roaring dragon, a memento to him "killing" (because no one except me stays dead lol) Zane.
His eyes are light brown. Surprising for one of his race, but not too unnatural. Words pop up on the screen as Phoenix begins gesturing with his hands (because he has no tongue and is now mute).
[quote]Dear Pants,
I'm afraid I won't be able to greet you in person. Honestly, I'd rather have it this way because I was naive and harsh the last time we met. And for that I am truly sorry, my brother. My friend.
In this container is a project I've been working on for a while. I made it specifically for you to compensate for your lack of equipment. It's a Venom Inc. Infiltrator-Class exosuit. VINC has most likely fallen by the time I've given you this, so they won't mind.
It was made for stealth missions, but I've modified it so its a tad bit more protective. There are [b]ceramic plates[/b] over a layer of [b]kevlar[/b] that will protect you from fire, heat, and most bullets. A .308 will still pierce your armour after heavy damage, and a .50cal will shred through regardless of integrity.
Also included is a [b]graphene cloak[/b] and hood that can fit over your exosuit. The carbon lattice pattern of graphene is 4mm thick, so it will protect you from most bullets but will still be destroyed by armour piercing rounds. (It's basically Batman's cape but more lightweight).
The Infiltrator's helmet is modified so that you can mount [b]Majora's Mask[/b] upon it. It will give you your abilities while still in the exosuit.
Within the thighs of the exosuit are [b]thermobaric sticky grenades[/b] that will attach themselves to anything you throw at and detonate in a blaze of fire and heat.
You must be wondering... Why is he doing this?
It's simple.
I'm gonna die soon, Pants. And I wanted to make things right between us. I'm hoping that you can find it in your heart to forgive me, even though this is the only way you'll see me again. [/quote]
The recording stops as the exosuit pushes itself out of the drop pod and shows itself to Pants.
[quote]Use it wisely, brother. Do not give this tech to anyone else.
Goodbye.[/quote]
It cuts to black, leaving only the crackling of flames and hissing of machinery.
And then it drops to the ground and opens itself up like an Iron Man suit, splitting apart at the back and inviting you in.

[b]stunned by this revelation. The fact that his old friend...even though they have had hard times, was dying. Pants was saddened. But looking at this suit. The way the armour was shaped. How it's his size. The colours of it. And where he would put his mask. This was made by that same master craftsman...that same blade...that same friend. He once knew. If this was his friends apology.... It was accepted. Maybe not from his creation but from his words. So. Pants stepped into the suit. For it was beckoning too him. And activated it. [/b] Thank you...Cobalt Pheonix....my friend.
