Night has fallen on Iwatani Labs but outside the building in the secluded parking lot, Felix glances between the burning vehicle behind him and his slightly grazed shoulder before turning back to Violet whose true identity was now revealed.“So you’re Zero…” Felix grumbled as he gets to his feet just as Violet sends another light beam towards him but he quickly dodges to the side as the beam causes another car to explode.Before Felix’s feet could even touch the ground, Violet was now beside him, half of her body covered by the red-black armour.Felix quickly creates a dagger of blue flames just as Violet sends a crushing punch into arm.The force sends him sprawling across the parking lot and into the side of a building. Felix crumples to the ground and coughs up some blood before realising that something felt strange.He turns to his left arm and his eyes widened when he sees that it was now broken
Somewhere in Paris, France, Levi turns to the eagle on his shoulder with a smirk. “Sup?” He asked and the eagle screeches at him while flapping its wings.B appears in front of Levi with a grin. “Does this mean we can keep him?” She asked.“I don’t know.” Levi said and he turns to Alana in confusion. “Can I?”“Let’s find out.” Alana said with a shrug and they quickly headed back to the guard post to ask…Almost ten minutes later, Levi and Alana exit the base with B sighing heavily behind them. “Sorry, guys.” Alana said to both dejected figures.“I already had the perfect name for him. Nero.” Levi sighed and Alana laughs as she nudges his shoulder.“Don’t worry. They said that they’ll keep him safe until Miss Balalaika formerly authorizes it. The project is still in the experimentation phase, after all. Peep and I are still being currently monitored and tested.” Alana said.“I guess.” Levi sighed.Alana chuckles as she wraps her arms around his neck and kisses him on the nose. “Relax,
“The seed has already been planted.” Those were the last words Levi heard before being sucked into a dark void. After precisely a second, he stumbles to the hard ground. He grunts as he looks up but he was no longer at the meeting room he was a second ago. “Where am I?” He mumbled as he gets to a knee, searching the now elegant lounge around him.He then notices the glowing amulet on his neck and quickly rips it off, tossing it aside… just as he felt a powerful presence behind him that made even B gasp as she appears in front of him and Levi cautiously turns around as a familiar voice appears.“We finally meet, Levi.” Levi’s eyes widened when he comes face to face with the creature that caused so much pain and conflict for years. The brain and key to destroying the Web. The Spider, herself.She was an exact copy of a much older form of B and taller than Levi. Her beautiful smooth looking light-beige coloured skin complementing her long silky scarlet hair which ran all the way down t
In the middle of the Pacific where the Web Main HQ rests on the ocean, Levi stares in shock as the Spider’s words echoed in his mind.“What’s wrong, my love?” The Spider asked and Levi shakes his head as he responds.“What’s wrong is that you just called me your king.” She just shrugs at his response which makes Levi even more confused. “How can I be your king? You barely know anything about…me.” He trails off when he realises it as he glanced at B.“Why’d you think it was hard to find a suitable candidate for it? When I designed the Cyber-Frame, I gave it a special selection system. It wasn’t just about the tron’s physical requirements; his heart, ideals, all the factors that drove him. It needed to be of those I’d consider a man worthy of my betrothal. The key sign I gave to verify this match was the device’s transformation from a Cyber-Frame into an Omega-Frame.&r
Within the Web’s HQ, men and holons work to prepare the base for attack, unware of the figure moving stealthily through the shadows.Levi moves quick through the base, evading guards and security cameras while relying on just his senses and skills. He senses a patrol team approach and quickly ducks into a supply closet. He breathes calmly as he leans against the door while the muffled voices of them men slowly pass the room. He waits for a minute after the group has passed before quickly ducking out.He continues down a narrow well lit hallway, his feet quietly slapping on the concrete floor as he runs… just as a guard appears at the other end. The moment the guard sees him, it was already too late as Levi sends a punch into his gut, grabs his arm and swings him to the ground, knocking him out cold. He stares at the unconscious man, breathing hard as the rush of adrenaline he just felt slowly fades…“Hey. Nick.” Levi
Still within the Web’s HQ, Levi encounters 5 of Sonya’s Aces who unleashed a combination of attacks on him and Callum but Levi continues to fight despite the odds.X groans as Levi’s attack sends him crashing into a wall and Levi grunts as he shifts his body stance to the lethal stance he used on Sir Gideon years ago.Levi’s glowing eyes scan the room for his next target when he senses Klaw who leaps towards Callum still mid-air.Levi’s eyes glow brightly as he forcefully activates his Lightning cloak mode and jumps into the air. Within nanoseconds, Levi kicks off the celling and performs his Electwister on Klaw. Blood spews out from Klaw’s mouth as Levi’s body instantly rips through his body and crashes into the ground below. The debris sent up by the rough landing were still flying up slowly as Levi stands up, clutching two dral cores in his hands. He groans as he smashes the cores together, shattering them instantly. “Klaw!” Inferno shouted out just as Levi appeared at his side,
5 and a half hours ago…… Felix as well as all third year students from the four Tron colleges converged at the Index HQ. About 1 and a half hours later, they were quickly put on X-100 rocket jets, the currently fastest plane in the world, heading towards the pacific in a migrating bird formation. On the plane, they were informed on the latest developments; the location of the Web’s Headquarters, the true status of Mr Griffon’s son, the Aces and one of the most powerful weapons in the world, The Cyber-Frame along with its user, Agent Silva. While most of the students gawked or gasped at the truth of Levi’s overwhelming powers which according to them is something of a rank SSS superweapon similar to that of the Spider herself. But to those who knew him, especially his friends all planted heavily worried look on their faces and even though they refuse to say it out, they all thought the worst. Four hours later, as the jets close in on the location, the students prepared themselves.
A few minutes go by and the Index squads continue to invade the base through its six entrances.At the Southern-most entrance, the group of student squads and their captains forge on through the Southern entrance, they continue to encounter resistance in the form of weapons, holons, humans and trons. Along the line, the teams were split in four teams based on their factions to cover more ground.As the Southern College squads ran through a large hallway on the middle floor, they cite a large room at the other end of the hallway but once they got close, some of them realised that a trap has been set there. Target, Rubik and Nova stepped forward and fired several gears at the entrance of the room, setting off the numerous bombs concealed in the structure and creating a massive explosion that rattles the entire base.The figures in the room stared at the thick smoke covering the exit. “Did we get them?” Two of the guards cautiously stepped forward to check…just as Raven and Shadow bust
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
