About 3 days later, Levi still in his uniform steps out of the college clinic in the middle of the afternoon, rubbing his wrist which was healing from a needle puncture. B groans in frustration as Levi continues down the road. B asked.Levi sighs as he puts his hands down and glanced at his side where a skilfully concealed figure follows him. Levi replied, telepathically as he taps on his band and connects the interface to his eyes. She mumbled and Levi shrugs as he removes the interface after reading a text detailing where his friends are hanging out.Some minutes later, Levi enters one of the many cafes in the campus. The ding of the bell above, attracts some attention to him. “Hey Levi!” He turns to see MJ waving at him from a tab
After a while of conversing, Levi finally speaks up. “Hey…uh. Alana? Can I talk to you for a sec?” She gives him a flirty smirk as she nods and Levi leads her away from the table where his friends give themselves sly smiles.They stop at a secluded corner beside the kitchen door and Alana gives him a seductive smile.“You just couldn’t help yourself huh…” She mumbled as she attempts to reach out to him but is stopped by Levi who folds his arms and speak.“What’re you doing here, Alana?”She pouts before speaking. “It sounds like you’re not happy to see me.”Levi’s expression softens a little. “No, I am. I’m just…curious. I mean, according to your classmates, you disappeared after the ceremony.” She smiles as she slowly walks around him.“Well, I am a ‘special’ tron after all. So I had to drop the student act
Somewhere of the coasts of Greenland, a secure but small Index base lies just before the forest.Levi shivers as the harsh cold wind blows through the opened bay door and hits him, even though he was wearing a very thick snow suit. “I really hate the cold.” Levi grumbled as he folds his arms and huddles closer to the fire in the middle.“You’re telling me.” Felix in his own snow suit grumbled, seated opposite Levi as he removes a glove to throw some more fire on the firewood with his energy.“You’ll get used to it.” Alana chuckled before suddenly snugging close to Levi. He heats up a little from the body heat.“So…” They both turn to the last figure beside the fire, Agent Titan AKA, Diana Sylvester who speaks with eyes looking between them. “…Are you guys are thing or something?” Before Levi or Alana could answer, a sudden gust of wind blows with enough force and snowflakes to completely snuff out the fire.“Are you kidding me?” Felix grumbled as he tries to light the wood again but
Days pass by and for the first time since their arrival at the college… things were… peaceful.Due to the fact that the third year curriculum mainly focused on activities which will serve as an opening to when and or if… the fight with the Web is over. So for once in a long time… things felt like an actual normal college… well… as normal as they can be for energy filled super teens.Even though they still had general combat and ability training, no squads in the class were sent on any missions so the students have time to focus on… other things. Levi in particular, other than preparing for the Work program and mastering his new Lightning cloak mode, he also received lessons from B how to assess minds and memories.At first, he was reluctant but B reassured him that he has actually done it twice before… once when he pulled the Cyber-Lock from his sister and saw a memory of her life as a Web agent. The other was in his fight with the Empire’s leader, when he somehow saw a vision with
It’s almost 7 pm and inside one of the biggest security posts in the Southern Tron College, Levi sighs heavily with his head hung low on a long bench in a secured room. “How did it come to this?” Levi mumbled as he looked up from the floor to the other side of the room where Roger, Becca and their gang sit quietly, some covered in bandages while others just stare in fear and shock. Roger makes eye contact with him and instantly looks away as he huddles into himself. “They’re treating us like kind of monsters.” Levi whispered.Alana chuckles softly as she shifts closer to him and whispers back. “Well, we ‘are’ monsters. Adorable monsters.” Levi fails to suppress a smile and shakes his head. “Still. The way you came…you must have been really worried about me.” She whispered into his ear and Levi blushes a little.“I guess.” Levi mumbled.Alana smiles warmly as she leans back before responding. “That’s cute but as you can see… I can take care of myself.” She gestures to some of the stu
A few minutes later, the escort guides them through the equally beautiful restaurant, where several heads turned once they saw Levi and Alana clearly.The guard then shows them up some stairs to the next floor, where they walked past the next set of customer tables but walk through a large pair of doors and into the VIP room.“Whoa.” Alana mumbled as the room which was even more beautiful compared to the other places they’ve been with the few guests there obviously being people of high standards and taste.As the guard shows them to their seat beside one of the windows which displayed a beautiful view of the city, Levi smiles again when he sees the name ‘Blissful Copy’ engraved into the table cloth.“Hey babe, if you would have told me we’re going someplace fancy, I would have chosen something more ‘fit’.” Alana said as she glanced at a woman dressed in a designer dress and expensive
With the work program now around the corner, the third year students of not just the southern branch but the other colleges as well, prepared with eagerness for their respective work programs.And even though Levi was psyched up about his IT program, he also had deep worried thoughts, specifically on the events of his date with Alana some days ago. It’s already dinner time in the third year hostel but Levi stays in his room with the left over meal he kept in the fridge as he packs up for the trip.He groans when he searches his opened backpack for something. “Where did I keep that note?” He mumbled.“Here.” Levi turns to see B who hovers towards him, a familiar green note book floating beside her. She motions the book to fit into his bag.“Huh…Never thought I’d see you help.” Levi chuckled and B scoffed with arms folded.“That’s a weird way to say thank you.” B said and Levi just chuckles as he zips up his newly repaired bag. As B watches Levi head to the closet to pick out clothes,
As the door to Levi’s room slides open, Alana smiles once she sees his face first. “Hey babe.” Alana mumbled as she gives Levi a quick peck on the lips before noticing the others. “I’m guessing I missed the dinner?” She asked, her eyes on the devoured feast and even though some of them laughed, she could still feel the tension in the air. “Did I…walk in on something?” “No. Nothing.” Levi mumbled as he gestured for her to come in just as Jake stands up. “I should go. I still have some council stuff to do before I get some sleep.” Jake said as he picked up his leftovers and Veronica stands up as well. “I’ll help you out.” Veronica said and Jake nods gratefully at her. Then, one by one, the others leave, giving one excuse after another until eventually… only Levi and Alana were left. “Well, that was weird.” Alana chuckled as she heads over to the table and picked up a half touched bowl of rice. She sighs as she takes a bite just as Levi collapsed on the couch. She sets down the bowl
As the doors to her parent’s room slide shut behind her, Eva’s eyes first meet the messy bed but Levi wasn’t on it. She turns and finds him standing by the cabinet some distance away from the bed. She wanted to speak but stops as an amused idea comes to her mind. She proceeds to sneak up to him and just when she was about to scare him, she finally notices that he was staring at a picture in his hand.Curious, she moves to get a closer look and sees that he was staring at the picture of him and Felix when they were younger. Unknown to Eva, Levi catches the sight of her eyes reflected against the frame and disappears… instantly appearing behind her and attacks with a tickle attack.“Da-Dad! S-Stop!” Eva shouted between laughs before using her own static shell to get away from him.“You let your guard down.” Levi said with a smile as he deactivates his static shell.“Sure but you don’t get to tickle me. I’m not 10 anymore.” Eva grumbled and Levi laughs as he places the picture in the ca
It’s been 2 whole weeks since the defeat of the Parasites but the whole world was still buzzing about it.Not only did it help resolve the still lingering resentment of normal humans against the Index and trons in general, it also boosted the images of the Guardians to the point that they got a title upgrade… ‘The Guardian Deities’ which was ironic because the guardians were fighting beings trying to become gods in the first place.This goes especially for Levi. From the rumours about him to his revelation and his fight, his fame blew up more than the other guardians. This caused people to give him new nicknames and titles but the most notable name was the one the Spider of the Web predicted almost 2 decades ago… ‘The King of Humans’When all this new fame, respect and in some extreme cases, worship emerged, most of those so called superheroes resigned. Which was mostly due to the new bound resentment to people like them using Visor and Shade as references.Those that remained were t
While the world continues to rave about the fight of the Guardians against the Parasites, the Index’s top command was confronted by the revelation of an old enemy coming back for another sick game before being shocked more once they learnt that someone on their side already figured it out.“You’re saying Levi West knew about Blanca all this time?” Carolina asked and Alana nods.“Why didn’t he say anything?” Amanda asked and Alana shrugs.“I think he was worried about Blanca getting whiff of it. Even I didn’t know anything about it until 30 minutes ago.” Alana said.“He told you?” Vivian asked but Alana shakes her head.“He’s still out cold. The person who told me is the only other person who knew which also happens to be the person that’s going to kill that bastard.” Alana said with a gesture to the blank screen.“Who?” The Northern Rep asked and Alana smirks.“I believe you know an agent that goes by the nickname… the ‘Devil’s Kiss’.” Alana said and the Rep’s eyes widen in fear. “I
About 2 hours after the fight, in the Index’s HQ within the city… “So you have no idea who destroyed the bases?” Callum asked with narrowed eyes at Amanda’s hologram who nods.“We were running around for days trying to find it until we got a call of an attack and decided to check it out. By the time we got there, the base was already in flames and every one in that building died either from the explosion… or were killed with hollow canons.” Amanda said with concerned expression her face.“The same thing happened in Greece.” Vivian grumbled in her hologram form beside Amanda.“And South Korea.” Hunt, Vivian and Veronica’s father said with low growl in his voice as he sits across Vivian in a holographic form as well.“What about New York?” Callum asked and Amanda responds.“It was the biggest out of the four bases so the attack left the squad there a little overwhelmed with the damage. The Erased is helping with the clean-up but Diana’s replacement confirmed that the same thing happen
Barely 2 minutes ago…… “I thought you said that place was safe.” Gwen said as she runs with Nina and Peter leading them through the tunnels underground. “Emphasis on the ‘was’. Plans change.” Maeve said with a nonchalant expression that makes the children even more worried. “I hope they’re all okay.” Alex said with hopeful voice and Alice squeezes his shoulder. “They will be.” Alice said and Alex smiles… just as Eli stops with his eyes narrowed and a hand on his mask. A second later, Maeve, Nina and Peter stop too… just as an explosion occurs several metres behind them. “Whoa.” Cyrus grumbled as he stumbles and turns with widened eyes as the flames from the explosion suddenly barrels through the passage towards them. “Get behind-” Peter grunted as he tries to use her steel form but stumbles just as Eli steps up with his mask down. “Eli!” Alex said as the flames and debris continue to approach him with terrifying speed but Eli remains calm as he takes a deep breath. Seeing this
In one of the four battlegrounds…Cain was now on the ground; eyes widen as their body crumbles away with a reflector seen activated on their chest.They look up and flinch as Hana, Rana and Camie despite being all injured in different places with varying severity, stand around him with the familiar amprade glowing under their skin and their eyes.“How is this possible?” Cain grumbled.“Boosted or not, you were still only capable of using two gears simultaneously. With three seeming to be your limit if you push yourself hard enough." Rana said."But there’s only so many combinations that could work and I’ve fought a monster that could use dozens of different gears simultaneously. Compared to Zero, you’re nothing.” Hana added with a cold tone in her voice.“No.” Cain mumbled with tears in their eyes as they raise an arm to them. “Help… Gil… Mum…” Cain arm finally crumbles away into nothing… followed by the rest of their body.The same event occurs in another place… where Zack was now o
Hidden beneath the chaos caused by the fights above… Nina grunts from the burns on her arm which Maeve tends to. “Are you okay?” Cyrus asked and Nina grunts as Maeve ties her wounds. “Yeah. I just feel stupid for trying to stop her.” Nina grumbled and a pained laugh draws her attention to Peter who was even more injured with Gwen tending to him. “That’s what we get for forgetting she’s Einstein’s little girl. The apple doesn’t fall far from the tree.” Peter said before wincing as Gwen washes his wounds. “Still… I thought she was trained assassin. Going this far was too much especially since Mr Levi’s still alive.” Maeve grumbled with a glance at the screen where Levi was seen arguing with Eva before being caught up in a smoke bomb attack, blocking them from sight. “I can understand her emotions. Even I’m fighting the urge to go especially since I can’t even see my father.” Barry said with a frown at one of the screens which only shows the ice fortress with the faint sight of flam
“Dad!!!!!!” Eva shouted as she jumps to her feet with her widened purple eyes fixed at the now hollow ground where Levi was standing without a single trace of him left. “I don’t believe it.” Peter mumbled with shocked eyes while Nina tightly clenches her fists with a pained but still hopeful look in her eye.“Eva.” Alice said as she turns to Eva who was beginning to hyperventilate.“No. No. No. No.” She continues to mumble with tear streaming down her cheeks. Alice and some others move to comfort her but Nina and Peter quickly stop them as black markings begin to crawl onto Eva’s body.“Please. No.”Meanwhile…Blanca just stares with completely shocked eyes at the hollow ground where Levi was standing while Gilgamesh smiles evilly.He then turns back to Blanca who quickly stops time again… before gasping as Gilgamesh’s hand tears another rift that allows him to enter the time stopped world again. “No. Stay away.” Blanca said as he turns to run before gasping as Gilgamesh was now in
12:54 pm…Under the hot afternoon sun, the Sanctuary continues to be bombarded with the chaos created by the parasites.But due to the efforts of the Index, virtually all civilians were safely evacuated to safe points where they, along with the rest of the world watch, via news drones, the battles between these new enemies and the only humans capable of fighting them……In one part of the city, Valentina stands with heavy breaths escaping her mouth while the several cuts on her body continue to heal quickly.She laughs as she looks up to Veronica with some bruises who growls with blood stained claws. “I’d say I underestimated you, Wolf. Your claws are even sharper than the Reaper’s scythe.”Veronica suddenly scoffs. “Wrong again.” Valentina furrows her brows in confusion which makes Veronica smile with beastly sharp teeth.“If you think my claws are sharper than Hana’s blades then she must have really held back when she fought you.”“Is that right?” Valentina chuckled as the last of he
