The Black Organoid

Synopsis

After getting away from the treacherous Mount Iselina, Van and the gang made it into Republican Territory. They make it to a village only after going through a zoid graveyard of 30 Guysacks. Van and the gang get in trouble as a few soldiers try to arrest them because they think it's someone else. Van and Fiona escape but Irvine, Moonbay and Zeke are caught. Then they are chased until they come across a boy lying down. The boy rescues them from the Republican Soldiers. More of them come, and as they are about to reach them, Fiona grabs the boy (who is just as old as Van/Fiona) and they make a break for it. Both Moonbay and Irvine are released due to a misunderstanding. Major Ford, leader and commander of this unit fills both Irvine and Moonbay in on the details. Two days ago, an entire sleeper battalion was whipped out because of one Saber Fang and a black organoid. A black organoid similar to Zeke had attacked them except it had wings instead of boosters. Raven (the boy) leads Van and Fiona to fresh water and asks them how is he can rescue their friends. Irvine gets to Van and warns him about Raven. By that time, the Republican Army has come in a small battalion of Godos'. Raven takes care of all of them. After that, Van takes on Raven and fights him. Raven is a superior fighter and defeats him but has enough sympathy to leave them be. He leaves Van with his broken pride. (Source: Wikipedia)
