Around two hours later, the flaming bird touches down in the 2nd Division’s Homebase and Alana helps Levi down before helping him stand on his own. They look around with slightly surprised expressions at the surprising amounts of agents working there before following Hana and the rest into the building. As they moved through the halls, Levi notices the several stares fixed on him. Alana notices his tense face and plants a smile as she nudges his side. “Looks like they’ve seen a ghost.” She whispered and cocks her brows at him. Levi rolls his eyes with a stifled chuckle when a familiar voice appears at their side. “Look who it is.” They stop to turn to the figure and Levi narrows his eyes in suspicion when he sees the lady moving towards them. She was about Levi’s age and height with a slightly built stature for a lady. She had short black hair with a few wisps of lilac in them, she also had double piercing on her ears and several purple coloured bandages wrapped around her face j
As the bullet train continues to speed across the tracks… at the back of the train, Felix and Hana stare at Alana standing before them, her wrists shackled and an expressionless look on her face. “So…” Alana grumbled as she moved to her small bed and plops down on it, a side-way glance at them. “Where’s Mary?”“She said she might end up killing you if she sees you again.” Felix scoffed.“That does sound like something she’d say.” Alana chuckled with a small smirk on her face.Hana adjusts her glasses with a stern look as she speaks. “She also said that she’ll agree to whatever decision we make.”“I see… And?” Alana turn to them, her expression unreadable. “What’s your decision?” She asked.A minute of tense silence fills the cabin just as Hana narrows her eyes at Alana. “Alana. You betrayed our trust not just as an agent but as a friend.” Alana’s expression twitches slightly at Hana’s words but she listens attentively.“You were working as a member of the Erased, a group of assassins
After an unsuccessful attack on the group of trons and a painful interrogation, the remnants of the Dark Empire details the Index on their little mole……“Lieutenant Wood, huh.” Felix mumbled with folded arms.“To think the agent I assigned this mission is the mole.” Mary sighed heavily before turning to Hana who speaks as she wraps bandages around the captive’s leg.“In that case, we have to find this agent and-”“Vice-captain!” They all turned to see a group of Index troops rushing towards them.Mary’s jaw clenches when she recognises one of the men approaching. “Speak of the devil.” She whispered and they all watch with caution as the troops stops before them and salute.“What happened, Lieutenant?” Mary asked and the middle-aged man in front of the others lowered his hand before speaking.“Apologies, ma’am. Information of our plan somehow leaked into enemy forces. They ambushed us at the town and sent some forces to capture you and the captain but…”Wood smiles as he looks beyond M
At first there was nothing. Just a dark pitch black void as far as the eyes can see… then a bright white light slowly comes into focus. It takes some seconds before the white-haired figure on the bed realised he was staring at a ceiling. “Levi.” He turns to the side to see Alana, Hana and Felix smiling at him. He slowly sits up when he recalls the events before he lost consciousness before wincing at the pain in his casted leg. “It’s still healing, Levi.” Hana said as she helps him settle back on the bed. Levi looks around the small room before speaking. “Where are we?” “The Chief’s house.” Felix mumbled from his seated position at the edge of the bed. “We’ll head to the main base once we’re done taking care of the last of the Empire forces here.” Hana said. Levi leans his head back on the pillow, his brows furrowed and his eyes closed as he recalls the fight with Thors. “What happened to that thing?” Levi asked. “Ran off an hour ago. Said something about a boss so I’m guessing
Hours later, around 5pm, Levi looks out from the window of the helicopter with widened eyes as he stares at the new main headquarters of the Index…which also happened to be the Southern Tron College. After the helicopter lands, Levi and his friends walk down the streets of their former campus which was now filled with refugees from different races, make-shift tents and houses sprawled out everywhere along with some small business establishments. Levi suddenly stops when he sees what used to be their favourite hangout café but was now a clothing shop. His friends stop once they noticed Levi staring with his hands tightly clutching his crutches. Levi thought to himself.While Kate stares in confusion, his friends held a similar saddened look once they followed his stare. After some seconds, Levi turns once he sensed a group of people giving him hard stares. He then realises that it was not just them, all eyes seemed to be upon him even though
Around 5pm in the new Index main base, a group of young but still powerful agents face each other in the conference room. “That’s because she’s not an enemy.” Jake said as he approaches Levi and the rest with Hana and Nina by his sides. Levi glances around once he noticed that their actions attracted the attention of the others.MJ grunts as she frees her fist from Mary’s hand. “What do you mean she’s not our enemy?” She asked while Arthur and Mary put away their weapons.“I can understand Levi’s desire to protect her but in case you’ve forgotten, she’s always been our enemy.” Arthur said with a dark stare and Vivian gives Jake a glaring look.“Don’t tell me she used her gears on you too?” Vivian asked as he holds up her claws to him but Jake smirks at her.“I assure you that my mind’s completely free from any influence and of course, I haven’t forgotten all the things Alana’s done all these years.” Jake said.Ivy raises an eyebrow at Jake as she speaks. “Then why’re you stopping us
As the important meeting of the top ranked Index agents continued, a point of the new threat of the world, Rebirth seeking immortality was raised… and Jake just confirmed it to be true……Jake nods at the shocked Camie when Veronica speaks again, her voice slightly shocked as well. “Is immortality even possible?” Jake motions to Nina who reaches into her back pocket before tossing an object to Veronica.Once Veronica opens her palm, those from Hana’s division including Levi stared in recognition of the small device on her palm.“What’s this?” MJ asked as she takes it from Veronica and examines it with Amanda and Vivian staring at it as well.“A rare item created by the Web using the Spider’s energy and blood. A Phoenix tear.” Jake mumbled and the others murmur in thought as the object slowly gets passed around while Hana narrowed her eyes as she speaks.“It basically recreates her special remodelling gear. When applied to a tron’s core, it will act from there to destroy the tron’s body
A day after the debriefing of Mission Primus and during that period, some of the captains and vice-captains returned to their various agencies to continue their different roles in the defending of the world. Inside the familiar Chancellor’s office, Nina, Camie and Veronica stand close to Jake who seats behind his desk with a smile fixed on the two figures in front of them. “I see you’re both in top shape again.” Jake said. Jake glanced at Levi and Kate’s body which were now devoid of casts or bandages. “I’m just glad my healing factor’s back to normal.” Levi mumbled as he stretches his arm and Jake nods at him. “I’m sorry but it’s there a reason you called for us?” Kate asked. “No reason. I just wanted to check on my dear friends.” Jake said with his eyes fixed on Levi who holds an expressionless look on his face…just as they turn to the sound of the door sliding open behind them. “Hey!” Vivian mumbled with a cheerful wave as she enters the room with Wasp just behind her. “Agent
