eTu'nes: A Fox's Lament

By: Zach Wood

Status: In Progress

Summary:

17 year old Fui Yamataka is not your typical girl; far from it. From birth, she's always been sickly, being born with a whole plethora of illnesses and diseases that would've killed any normal baby at that time. Lucky for her, she lives in the year 2175, a full 150 years after the Heakaluesly, a race of spacefaring telepathic cepholopods, or squids as they are nicknamed, arrived on Earth, having narrowing escaped the destruction of their own planet and spending centuries abroad. Very advanced, the Hesk were able to move humanity forward on the technological table by a century, even creating perfect copies of the cities and metropolis' lost to the ocean. Like they did for humanity, they were able to help her; giving her experiment implants that allowed her to live past the diseases that wrack her so, but the same implants also run the risk of killing her too. Another thing that makes her unordinary is the fact that she is born with the ears and tails of a fox, something that has happened to no human. Some view her as the next step in humanity's evolution, others view her as a experiment gone wrong, but most just see her as a freak. Whichever case, in the past 17 years, her life has been torture, living in fear that her implants or illnesses will kill her. All that changed when she met En, a combat A.I. with the avatar of a cybernetic wolf 'on loan' to the Hesk by his creators not long before their home world was destroyed. However, the creators want him back, something he doesn't want. One fateful night brought the two of them together, and they soon discover that they can merge into one being with extraordinary abilities thanks to her implants. Whether by fate or coincidence, that's when things began to go wrong in the world as all sorts of evil began to creep out of the shadows. Doning the name 'eTu'nes', Fui and En find themselves as the only line of defense against a wave of villainy they have yet to encounter. Their lives will never be the same.
