Welcome to Yokohama Base
I was dreaming
It was nothing I had ever dreamed of before, it was so alien, I did not know I was dreaming of like I was dreaming of the lives of multiple people. There were places times, architecture, and dark cities I did not recognize. But the familiarity was a bit hard to not miss.
The familiar lamp was dark, and the house that was usually full of life was empty...
It feels weird I can tell that the people who live here run away in a hurry with the way I am seeing Luggage, clothes, and Cars being left behind on the street.
But still, Where am I...? I kept walking along the street looking left and right seeing only empty houses and stores, until I saw a person running with all of their might while pulling someone with her.
One person went by me and when I touched their bodies it phased through them. I looked over their face and saw the panic contained inside their face.
While a parent and their child, both sporting fiery Auburn hair and striking red eyes were running with all of their might I heard a heavy thud. Amidst their rapid dash, I felt the ground shake from some massive footsteps. Without thinking, I glanced back to see where the noise was coming from, and that's when I saw it.
A lump of red flesh straight out of a horror movie, with two arms in the front and 6 legs on the lower body. With its giant huge teeth with signs of blood on its teeth like it has breakfast.
It... was like straight out of horror me, I was horrified just from seeing it. But there were even more of them as 10 of it began to crawl. I stood there bewildered, unsure of what to do, until one of the monsters met its end from a sudden bullet that rained down from the heavens.
I was shocked so I looked up at the culprit and then, it appeared. A singular white aircraft emerged in the sky, launching missiles that streaked toward our location.
The street erupted into chaos with multiple deafening explosions, and when I mustered the courage to open my eyes, the once-menacing red monsters lay scattered in disarray, leaving a grisly trail of flesh and blood.
I look back at the aircraft and see it went somewhere far away that you can not see with human eyes.
"Mom, who is that?" I heard a nearby child inquire.
I turned to the parent and child, both of them gazing upward in awe, not even caring about the monster who just died a moment ago.
"...It's Angel" the mother replied, her voice tinged with wonder as her eyes remained fixed on the lone aircraft in the sky as it quickly left our point of view.

My eyes cracked open and in a sudden quick reaction, I suddenly stood up Looking left and right while I felt sweat pour down on my face. I eased myself back onto the bed, realizing it was just a nightmare.
Lounging back, I looked to my right and saw the Menu was still there. I hurriedly checked my plane's status.
The status of my plane says that it is currently destroyed and I need to replace it.
But seeing that I survived, I must have completed the mission.
There was a moment of silence, in the room as I gathered my thoughts while closing my eyes until I raised my fist up in the skies with a bright smile
HURRAY! I've actually bloody WON! Take that you BETA scum! you thought just because you have a number and size you could win a battle? Think again fucker!
But as I feel happiness takes over until I suddenly feel dread. "Oh fuck... how long did I sleep?"
Did I sleep for a full day? Weeks? Even month? And by the various beds around me and the white wall, I must be in some kind of hospital.
This is bad... really bad. AND I still have not paid my sister's Medical bills, I must run now If I want to make it!
So I was about to plug the life support off and was preparing to head to my sister's hospital as soon as possible when I noticed something strange...
"What in the..."
You've got to be kidding me – I'm in shackles? And not just any shackles; these confounded contraptions have tightly ensnared both my arms and legs. Wait why did I not notice it until now?
I tugged and strained but to no avail. My futile attempts at brute force only confirmed the inescapable grasp of these metallic restraints. Well, obviously, considering they're made of metal.
...Let's try to keep a level head and reevaluate the situation. I began to take note of my surroundings, realizing that I was clad in a gown typically worn by the injured. Bandages adorned various parts of my body, including my left eyes.
It seems my arm and eye have taken a beating, the damage appears manageable and likely to heal soon. But the worst part was the various burn marks around my body from my arms, body, and feet, just about every single part of my body had some burned mark.
I barely managed to suppress an exasperated sigh, how do I explain this to My lovely sister Elena Back at home if she saw my state? I already predict she will be furious the moment she sees my state.
...However, my current predicament is far from favorable. Utterly devoid of prior knowledge regarding my whereabouts or the reason behind these shackles. And I can't even tell how much time have pass, it could have been days, weeks even month.
...God this situation is not good.
So I began my escape and noticed that the shackles were affixed to the lower bed frame. Employing my feet, I commenced a rhythmic assault on the connection, relentlessly attempting to free myself with all of my strengh.
I try it for a few minutes I give up after losing too much breath.
...It's not working, I must have watched too many movies thinking it works.
I remember buying a gun and keeping it in my inventory for safekeeping, I was about to pull it out when I was called out.
"Pardon me..." echoed the voice of a young woman.
My heart raced, adrenaline surging through my veins as I instinctively glanced toward the source of the sound. Before me stood a blonde figure with cropped blond hair and striking blue eyes. And, to my dismay, two armed soldiers flanked her.
Who are they?
She brings her first to her mouth and coughs "My name is Lieutenant Irina Pyatkh from communications officer"
What? Lieutenant Irina Pyatkh? What the hell would a soldier want with me?
"My name is Renald Yoma," I replied with a piercing glare while struggling against the shackle's grip. "And who might you be, and why the hell am I restrained?"
"We are affiliated with the United Nations," she stated matter-of-factly.
Upon closer inspection, a soldier dressed in blue attire stood beside her, confirming their association with the United Nations. My mind raced as recognition dawned upon me.
"Alright, if you guys ARE United Nations, what do you want with me?" I then shake my legs and arms "And you still not answer why am I in shackle?"
"Back off," one of the soldiers beside her said
"BACK OFF?" I roar at them with madness which makes them step back while they grip their guns hard. "I still have not paid my sister's medical bill! So either takes these off or-"
"Please can you listen to us first" The blond girl asked me in plead and looked back at the soldier "And please don't instigate the Injures, he must be confused"
Wait a minute – that familiar blonde hair... Now I remember who she is!
Lieutenant Irina... She's one of the side characters from Muv Luv.
...This realization led me to one conclusion, I must be at Yokohama Base.
In other words, I am still stuck at Muv luv Alternative universe.

After calming down, Lieutenant Irina began to lead me across the hallway. Which will answer all of the questions I have in mind.
The only problem I had was I was guided by the shackle-bound grip of both my hands and feet, I was escorted through an unfamiliar corridor, accompanied by an armed soldier who kept a watchful eye on me from the front and behind adding an undercurrent of unease to the atmosphere.
Despite the palpable tension, my mind was focused, and casual conversation was the last thing on my mind. And I was looking left and right nervous from the unfamiliar area.
And how long are they going to leave the shackles? It's already difficult enough to walk around just from the injuries. But the fact they still treated me like a criminal on the loss.
We traveled around the hallways and then went down the elevator. Before arriving at the designated room. Lt Irina first stepped inside and I followed suit from behind, immediately sensing a twinge of recognition as I surveyed the surroundings.
This room was etched into my memory from the Visual novel. The Scattering books and the 2 sofas with a table in the middle. But that was not what caught my attention.
Is that... IBM PC? Oh my god, I have not seen That thing for a long time, That makes it so nostalgic when I first use it to play Counter Strike. Still, to see humanity so far behind in terms of technology. It Kind of hurts to see it in person.
"XO, the man has awakened" Lieutenant Irina speak
Nestled at the far end of the room, obscured by a stack of papers, a figure with noticeable purple hair became apparent. With Irina's announcement, the individual who had been concealed behind the paper barrier rose to their feet. And I stood face to face with a character I had hoped to never encounter – someone who was meant to exist solely within the realm of fiction.
It is none other than Dr. Kouzuki a key figure of Alternative IV and a member of the United Nations.
