Kamui x Commandant/reader

Summary:

He has changed, but no one seemed to believe that or, at least, be skeptical about it. But when he sees you were doing the same, Kamui is determined to prove that he is just as reliable as the next construct.

In Kamui, We Trust

Tags: Long, ver long one-shot, action, mentions of Lee multiple times, spoilers of affection lvl.

"Hey, Commandant!"

Kamui's boisterous voice caught everyone's attention. The Grey Ravens had just finished their Simulation drills.

Liv helped you out of your pod, as Lee stood in front of Kamui, who, was eager to see you.

"Kamui, what are you doing here?" Lucia asked.

"Is there a mission that require our assistance?" Lucia asked again before Kamui had a sheepish grin. Rubbing the back of his neck, almost if he's a little embrassed, and said, "Well... No, but please don't tell Chrome I am here though."

Lee gave Tenebrion a look. Skeptical about what Kamui has to say.

"After the last mission, I realised I need more training! I want to strengthen up myself and get use to... Well, me."

You gave a questioning look, "…in other words, you want to get use to your new frame a bit more?"

Kamui smiled brightly, "Yeah! Commandant gets it!"

Lee was about to say something but was pushed aside by Kamui. Exictedly, he showed you the simulation level he had in mind.

"Erm... Kamui..." Liv spoke, "that level is way to high for you to do this alone."

"That's the type of idiot who would make a daring attempt." Lee crossed his arms, head gesturing towards the blond construct.

"Well…one can't push their own limits and improve if you stick to levels you are only comfortable with." Kamui rebuttals with a bright grin.

"Pushing your limits to the extreme is never wise. It usually ends up badly for constructs as well as for humans. So are you going to sacrifice your pain receptors, risking a M. I. N. D Deviation?" Lee spit back.

Kamui had a little pout and remain quiet. He turned to Lee and gave a little shrugged. That infuriated Lee. You quickly diffuse the tension between the constructs.

"Lee, it's okay." you said. Turning towards Kamui you spoke, "I would love to help you with your frame, but we just finished a simulation drill. Maybe, next time."

Kamui wore one of his bright smiles, "Hey, don't worry about it. When next time comes, just give me a call and I will be here all ready. Oh! And it would be nice if you call me via a private channel," He gave a laugh, "don't want Chrome to get the wrong idea."

Lee rolled his eyes. As the Grey Ravens exited the simulation room, Kamui could only feel a little somber over his failed attempt. He has nothing to do beside heading back to his room.

After that time, Tenebrion went for another go. Walking towards the Grey Raven’s common room, he was about to knock on the door when he suddenly got dragged by the collar.

“Kamui, there you are!” Chrome said, “Strike Hawk has just received a new mission. We are getting dispatched in 20 minutes!”

“Wait what?! Why didn’t I know about this? Kamui questioned. Chrome didn't answer him right away and arrived to their common room. Banji was already making preparations.

“I have send the information to your inner devices, read it as we descend,” Chrome replied, “This is a sudden request for backup from earth, so everyone needs to be focus and stay vigilant, got it?”

“Yes, Captain.” Kamui and Banji answered.

**********

"Banji, you keep watch at the south exit. Kamui and I will come in at the north gate,"

Through the inter comms, Banji gave a yawn, "Roger..." He spoke snugglishly and made his way to the designated location as planned.

As Chrome dial to connect to a new channel, Kamui was busy looking around.

"... Kamui, I need you to stop walking around and pay attention, this is a highly infected zone. The enemies are reported to operate on AI, we can't afford to be careless. " Chrome said.

The channel was finally connected a familiar voice came through, "Grey Raven Squard Commandant," it was your voice.

Immediately, Kamui stopped and rushed toward Chrome.

"Hey, it's Commandant, so it seems we are teaming up with the Grey Ravens, huh?" Kamui said and he greeted you.

Chrome cleared his thoart, “Anyway, Commandant. Strike Hawk Chrome reporting for duty. We have arrived at your given coordinates. Grey Ravens, where are your current location?"

"We are by the field, about 300 meters away from where you are. We will be there soon."

"Good," Chrome nodded, "Commandant, I have devised a plan to infiltrate the premises. Please read for review."

"Noted," you reply, "we will get into formation once we met up. There's no time to lose."

"Understood, Commandant." with that, Chrome ended the call. Resulting Kamui, staying a bit silent.

"Kamui," Chrome asked, "What's wrong?"

"... Hmm..." tapping his head with a finger, Tenebrion was in thought, "...nothing, just want to see how can I be of use to Commandant."

"You can be of use by proving yourself in this mission," Chrome said,"But enough of that now, they are going to be here soon, so get ready."

Once you met up with Chrome and Kamui, every one set into their formation as Chrome planned. Luica and Lee entered first while Liv stayed with you and Chrome to scan the surroundings for potential enemies. Kamui was placed at the back to protect you from possible sneak attacks.

"Enemy ahead!" Liv alerted. On cue, a Musashi IX emerges. Its footsteps heavy, marched towards you. Red lights emitted from its chest. It held the blade up ready to launch an attack.

"Lucia, Lee, watch out!" you cried as the corrupted swing the blade towards them.

"Kamui, stay back and protect Commandant! " Chrome ordered.

"Wait, Kamui, he!" Liv exclaimed.

Chrome turned his head around and saw Kamui was nowhere to be found. Looking left and right, he stop when a huge clash rung in everyone's ears. Kamui seems to came out of nowhere and parried the Musashi's attack.

"Kamui!?" Lucia said, surprised to see him at the front.

"That idiot!" Lee exclaimed, "Luica, go take Kamui's place, now!"

Without a word, Lucia and Lee rushed towards you as Kamui fended the mechanism alone. With his new Tenbrion frame, he felt much stronger. The Musashi went in its overclock mode, strengthening its shield.

However, Tenebrion doesn't seems to be worried about it. Seeing this an opportunity to show you what he can do, he unleashed his ultimate and hammered his big sword at the enemy.

The strength from the Tenebrion frame was just as heavy. You felt the ground shook as the weapon made contact. With one finally hit, Kamui plunge his sword into the ground, dark energy spurt up; sending the enemy flying in mid air and impaling its core with dark matter.

The lights from the Musashi faded its body turned limp. Falling to the ground in a huge crash. Kamui relaxed his stances. His smile returned and looked at the rest of you.

Suddenly, the surroundings began to shake. Small amounts of dust and pebbles fell onto your shoulder. The metal ceiling shook from the impact.

"You...! " Lee growled at Tenebrion.

“The place is not going to hold, everyone get out!” Chrome yelled.

Without a second thought, everyone ran towards the exit. Pieces of infrastructure and debris fell one by one. You ran as fast as you could to catch up with the others. The dust that riled up from the ground obscured your vision. You could only trust your insinct to navigate your way, and suddenly, a hand grabbed your arm to pull you back.

A large metal tube like structure fell right in front of you, blocking your path towards the exit as well as your team. The impact was loud and momentarily made your heart beat fast. It only took a few seconds for you to regain focus and assess your situation.

"... That was close..." his voice said.

That's when you realised, Kamui saved you.

“Commandant!!” you heard Liv cried.

“Damnit!” You also heard Lee cursed.

“Guys, I am fine!” you yelled back.

“Wait? Where’s Kamui?!” Chrome cried.

“Captain, I am here with Commandant!” Kamui replied.

“Commandant,” you heard Lucia said, “Stand back, I will cut this pipe…” she was about to take her sword out before Lee stopped her.

“Lucia, wait! I don’t think this is pipe. I just made a scan on it. There's liquid inside that contains explosive substances. Even with a slightest heat, given its scale, it will blow the whole place up.”

“But Commandant…” Lucia spoke.

“It’s alright, Lucia!” you yelled back, “I will be alright, I have Kamui with me.”

“What should we do?” Chrome turned to the Grey Ravens.

“We should check how many enemies are within this area. The ruckus would have alert other AI mechanics nearby.” Lucia said, “Liv, run a scan.”

The support construct nodded her head and scanned the premises.

"Liv what's the situtation up front?" Chrome asked.

"More enemies up ahead on Commandant's side. The Punishing concentration is little more higher. Should we call for a compositor for back up?" Liv replied.

"It’s not necessary, we will find a way. You guys go to the south exit to meet up with Banji. Kamui and I will meet you there.” you ordered.

Despite been given orders, the Grey Ravens were hesitant to leave, “but…” Lucia said.

“Don’t worry, Lucia. I will keep Commandant safe!” Kamui promised.

Looking at each other for a while, the Grey Ravens gave each other a silent agreement.

“We will be waiting for you, Commandant.” Lucia said and followed Chrome towards the exit. Lee and Liv followed.

"It seems we have no choice but to move forward this way." you pointed at the direction that you all ran from.

Suddenly, Kamui proposed “If we travel forward, according to the map, there’s an electrical room here.” he pointed at the metal gates where the Musashi was guarding.

“We might not be able to beat all these corrputed inside but, I know there is a power core. If we can sneak in and activate the core, this could send shock waves to disengage the enemy." he added

You went quiet.

“Wow… That actually sounds like a good plan.” you praised. Kamui grinned happily.

"Wait, how do you know there's a power core?" You asked.

Kamui rubbed his head, "Well... While I was wandering around, I happened to see an electrial power sign. So I took a peek to the electrical room through the vent," He pointed at the vent at the upper corner.

You inspected the vent and noticed an opening near the metal doors.

"So that’s how you ambushed the Musashi…," you said. He face flushed warmly.

Both of you went towards the vent, luckily it was not destroyed. You crawled your way through the tunnel. Both of you stopped above the electrical room. Peering through the opening, you can see the interior.

The power core was right at the middle, still lit up from storing years worth of power generated from the solar panels.

“This must be like a recharge station for a few corrupted models…” you whispered, “where is the ON switch for this?”

Rummaging through your pack, you took a small pair binoculars and tried to find the control panel. At the same time Kamui did a scan of the room. Despite his scanning function weren't as good as Lee’s and Liv’s, he tries his best to locate the control panel.

“There’s a platform on the far end,” he pointed out. You immediately look into that direction. Indeed, you saw a small platform with metals stairs that leads to the observation room.

“I see it,” you replied, “But it’s connected to an observation room. We might have to climb our way up…” you place the binoculars back and looked at Kamui.

He seemed relatively calm, although, he carries a cheerful mood throughout this mission, this time you can see he has changed and now he wore a much serious expression, as if he was think hard.

Lee might like this Kamui more, you think.

“There’s also another door in the room. I guess this must be where the corrupted all come and go after they replenish their energy,” you said.

“The gate is also that way, we can lure the corrupted in and hit that button to zap them.”

“ Before that, we need a rope to make that climb,” You pointed at the platform.

Kamui took a look, “I think I am tall enough to hoist you up there, we should be fine.” you gave him a skeptical look.

He seemed to notice your hesitance to agree and said, “I know Lee is always better prepared and reliable, but… I can also be reliable too, especially in this new frame. Please, Commandant, trust me. ”

You didn't expect him to say that. Reality was, there isn't any other options, and you know that taking a risk is best course of action you could take right now.

Taking a deep breath and a moment to yourself. You access your current situtation before making up your mind. You nodded, “Okay, let’s do this.”

Tenebrion smiled.

**********

Carefully, both of you jumped down from the vent opening. Kamui jumped first and caught you as you followed. Quietly, you went towards the other exit and looked around. So far, no corrupted was in sight.

Kamui looked around and found an emergency panel. Without a thought, he busted it open, and began to look into the emergency functions.

Soon, he realised there was a option to activate an emergency ladder for the control platform. He gave a triumph smile.

Turning his head he looked back at you and gave a signal. You nodded and took out your gun. Taking another deep breath, you walked out to the corridor. Slowly and steady, you held your gun tight. One moment, there was nothing in sight, and the next, you froze in surprise see a red beam aiming at you.

Gun shots fire.

Immediately, you dodge the attack and fired your gun.

“HUMANS… M..UST..BE….DES….TROYED….” Its mechanical voice spoke. The corrupted scanned what was in front and identify you as the target. It took out its small antenna to alert the others.

Soon, a series of marching could be heard from a distance, the group of corrupted that Liv detected must be heading this way. Of course, they were all gathered by the south exit.

You fired your gun twice more before yelling, “They’re coming!” and ran back into the electrical room. The army began to pick up speed. Some jumped up to try and catch you.

Before they can land on you, Kamui swung his big sword, and charged forward to push the corrupted back.

“Kamui!” you shouted.

“I am fine! Just go to the control panel!” Kamui yelled as he hacked away the machines.

At this point, you stop having the seed of doubt. You could only trust him and dashed forward. Other corrupted were alerted and joined in, jumping down from the sides. The sudden formation caught Kamui off guard. Leaving his post he ran towards you and hacked away a corrupted that was getting too close; before it could touch you.

Both Commandant and construct made it underneath the platform. Immediately, you climbed up the ladder into the platform.

Kamui hacked away the bottom half of the ladder before jumping up. He caught the handle of the remaining half and pulled himself up.

Turning on the control panel, the screen lit up and you began to work your way to activated the power core.

“Power Core Activation Error.” the machine spoke.

“What?!” you tried again and entered the command.

“Power Core Activation Error.”

“Damnit! Where’s Lee when you need him!” you cursed.

You tried again, this time you entered the troubleshooting command.

“Trouble-shooting power system, please do not interrupt.” the voice said. A loading screen popped up, and it felt like an eternity to waiting, when it only took a few seconds.

The corrupted began jumping up, in hopes to get to the ladder.

“Trouble-shooting complete.”

You let a small sigh of relief. Kamui looked down to see the corrupted banded up together and stack on top of each other they were definitely coming.

A list of codes and commands popped up on the screen, the colour of the text looked fine until there was a sentence in red. The main problem.

“Power Core not connected…” you read, “Can not detect signal. Please turn signal on.”

“There should be a button or switch on the core to connect it!” Kamui said, “I’ll go turn it on!”

“Wait! That thing is going to shock you!” you pulled him back.

“Commandant, trust me,” he gave you a reassuring smile, “Remember?”

And, you did.

Letting go his sleeve, you gave him a nodded. Kamui nodded back.

Returning to the screen, you began to activate the power core again. Kamui took out his big sword and went into his ultimate. He jumped down from the platform and plunged his sword on a corrupted underneath him; hacking his way towards the power core.

Pushing the machines back, he found a hatchet on the core. Hurriedly busting it open, he activated the signal, linking it up to the computer.

"Signal detected."

At the same time, you entered the activation command. You pressed enter and the loading bar filled itself in.

“Power Core Activated.”

A surge of electricity corse through the room. You watched as strips of electricity ran from above all the way down to the floor. The voltage electrocuted everything that was in its radius, creating a bright sparkle of light blinding you as you cover your eyes. The sound of electricity running through the metal was deafening. Too much to bare, you hastily reached for the control panel to turn the core off.

Slowly, the light diminishes and silence engulf the room.

You lower your arm to take a look at the aftermath. A room full of corrupted lay lifeless on the floor. The only thing to be heard was the sound of a leaking circuit.

“It’s… over…” legs buckled, you slump down. You tried to calm your beating heart.

“Thank god for Kamui…” you mutter, when you suddenly remember about the construct.

Quickly, getting up, you made your way down the ladder and rushed to Kamui’s side. You didn't know if the he was still working and alive.

“Kamui!” you cried and went to his side.

Laying down, Kamui opened his eyes when he heard his name.

“Commandant… we did it! ” he spoke. His bionic voice sounded fizzy.

“Kamui, are you okay?! I will call for the shuttle right away!”

“Yeah, I am alright.” he said seemingly too energetically, earning a strange look from you.

“… Are you sure?” you asked. It’s not normal for a construct to still be fine after a shock.

“Did it not hurt?” you asked again.

“... It should. Guess turning the pain receptors off has it's advatanges, ” he jested.

You gasped, “You what?! I am connecting you to my M.I.N.D right now!”

You linked up his M. I. N. D to your mind beacon. There, you monitored his M.I.N.D deviation hoping the numbers would go down.

“Commandant!” a familiar voice rang through the room. Lifting your head, you saw your team heading towards you.

“Kamui!” Liv cried and rushed towards him. Conducting a full body scan Liv reported,” he’s inner circuit has been damaged, and his M.I.N.D Deviation percentage is not in the normal range!”

“What did you do?” Lee asked.

“He turned off his pain receptors in order for me to active an electric shock,” you answered on behalf, “it eliminated the corrupted but… Kamui was in the cross fire.”

“Liv, how is Kamui situation? ” Lucia asked.

“Right now, he’s connected to Commandant’s Mind Beacon. And, his deviation percentage is steadily declining.” Liv answered.

“Call the shuttle, unfortunately, we need to retreat.” you ordered.

Lee nodded and send a retreat signal to Babylonia.

"Sorry, to have you all worry... This place is better for a compositor to conduct the investigation..." you then look at Kamui who was looking at you, " Thank you, Kamui. I am glad that I trusted you."

Hearing that, Tenebrion couldn't help but to feel warm and fuzzy.

********

“Commandant~” Kamui popped up in front of the Simulation room door.

“You again?” Lee said, “I am surprise to see Asimov let you go early.”

“Kamui, you’re back,” you greeted as you got out of the simulation pod.

“Let me guess… you want me to help with your frame?” you asked.

“Yep!” he grinned brightly.

“Hold up,” Lee held his hand up to stop Kamui from getting too close, “Don’t tell me you want to do a danger zone simulation drill. Wasn't the last mission enough? ”

“Nah~ that’s not what I am here for,” Kamui took out a piece of paper and handed it to you. You took it and read its content.

“A feedback survey?”

“Yep! Chrome said that this could also be a way to improve and strengthen my skills,” Tenebrion crossed his arms and nodded, “So, go ahead and fill it in! We can discuss about it when we have our munchies!”

As you can see, I was very inspired when I wrote this. You can say action scenes are one of my favourite things to write.

BTW “munchies” is a Kamui way of saying food.

Edit: as you can see, this one has more mistakes than the pervious ones bc I accidentally published it. ;w;
