When Merrick initiated his special project with the Fourth Division, he had informed them that it wasn’t a pressing matter. He realized that the squad was undoubtedly busy with personal assignments and more important Gotei sanctioned business. As such, his prototype was going to be very low priority. Nevertheless, it was still mildly surprising when nearly a month had passed before someone from the Research and Development Institute had finally made contact. Arriving during the end of one of his shifts at the hospital, the message provided the following information.
Thus, at twenty five minutes until nine, Merrick was marching into the main headquarters of Fourth Division. Upon reaching the front desk, he retrieved the notebook from his robes and removed the squad summons from between some of the pages. “Miss, I am here to speak with Shinsei Madarame. I have a message which requests my presence if that will help expedite matters at all.” He handed her the one page document to examine. “And I will be wanting that back.” Although a copy of the letter likely remained somewhere within the Fourth, Merrick liked to limit any paper trail of his activities to the best of his ability. I really wish that they had not included the project designation. After a call over the intercom, the young female Shinigami returned the document to Alain and told him to take a seat. A quick glance of the wall clock revealed that he only had five minutes until the deadline. If Shinsei or someone else didn’t arrive soon, he was likely going to have problems aiding with or even witnessing the test. Fourth struck him as the kind of group which were sticklers for protocol. As he waited, he pondered the types of tests that they would be conducting. In particular, there were two which Alain definitely had to see. First, he was looking for a brute force attack, most likely utilizing a zanpakuto. Second, he needed to view how it reacted under the strain of a powerful energy based assault like hado. Unfortunately, he was still struggling with the art himself so hopefully, the Fourth had someone capable of performing the latter. Any other tests would be a welcome surprise.
