After the graduation, Zaco went over to Zico's penthouse, as he entered the house Zico came out of his study room and smiled " Congratulations to you brother. You finally made it out of school." Zico said with his hand stretched forth for a hug. Zaco hugged his brother. " Am glad to be done with education. Mother would have been proud." Zaco said with pride.Zico opened a bottle of champagne and they talked over drinks. " So, what's your plan now that you are done with your studies?" Zico asked Zaco." Well, I don't have plans. I am rich and buoyant. Besides, I have all I ever wanted. But I would like to work in one of fathers companies or what do you think about that brother." Zaco asked as he sipped his drink."Well, you are your own man now. I don't see any reason why you should have to work for your father's company. Why don't you just set up a small company you can call your own and lord over it." Zico advised." I will think about it, but in the meantime. I want to have fun and
Eddy on the other hand was not concerned at all about pursuing any career. All he wanted was to dig deep down about all that happened back in their school days. He wanted to find out more about Max and his newfound wealth and know more about his past life.Eddy, driven by a relentless curiosity, delved into investigating Max's mysterious transformation. He began by discreetly gathering information from their mutual friends, subtly probing for details about Max's past. As he uncovered every bit of Max's journey, Eddy's intrigue intensified, pushing him to explore deeper into the enigma surrounding his former classmate. One evening, Eddy found himself at a local cafe, sipping on his coffee while meticulously studying a collection of documents related to Max. He had managed to obtain some old yearbooks and class photos, hoping to spot any subtle changes or clues that might reveal the turning point in Max's life. As he meticulously compared the Max he knew from school to the present-day
Irrisia was still scared about the note she had been receiving. " It's all good now. You won't be getting any more scary notes from anybody." Max said as he entered the house. " You think so? Who has been behind the messages? Is it Dino?" Irrisia asked Max as he sat down on the sofa in front of her. " Yes, obviously he has been stalking us since he knew we were leaving together. I just sorted things out with him and if he goes ahead to bother us, we can just have him reported." Max said, looking at Irrisia." Thanks for coming into my life Max, what would I have done without you? You have changed my life since I met you." irriysia said with a smile and kissed Max softly. " Hmm..you taste like strawberry. Have you been eating one?" Max asked looking around to see if there was any left." Yes, I got some at the store. I have your torn in the fridge for you. You can have yours once you are done with your bath." Irrisia said getting Max's briefcase.As Max took a soothing bath, he couldn
Max and Irrisia exchanged glances, realizing the gravity of Luna's situation. Max gently approached Luna, offering reassurance. "It's okay, Luna. We're here to help you. Can you tell us anything about the accident or what led to your disappearance? The last I remember was that you told us to find you when we were ready, and now we are. How did you get here? What's going on?" Max asked.As Luna started to recall bits and pieces, Max couldn't shake the feeling that their quest for answers was far from over. The tangled web of mysteries surrounding their lives seemed to tighten, and Max knew they needed to unravel the truth."We'll figure this out, Luna. You're not alone in this," Irrisia assured, standing by Luna's side.Max said softly " Would you like to follow us back home? You don't look safe over here." He said looking at Irrisia." You should just come back with us. You can't be alone over here. It isn't safe for you." Irrisia repeated again.The trio left the abandoned warehouse,
There was a huge tension in the air as all of them looked at each other. " Aimy, are you getting your memories back?" Irrisia asked, looking at her."Yes, I got some recently. I was kidnapped by Zaco's twin brother." Aimy said, looking at Irrisia. The room went silent again, "What do you mean Zaco's twin brother, huh?" Max quickly asked her. " I saw someone that looks exactly like Zaco, alright. And I am not hallucinating. I know what I saw." Aimy said, trying to make them believe her.Darius quickly drew her off her seat into a corner of the room while Irrisiaa and Max talked silently between themselves. " Are you sure about what you are saying? I won't have you make a fool of everyone. Do you know the gravity of what you just said?" Darius asked.Aimy didn't know what to say. She was sure of what she had seen. " I know what I saw, boss. I am not trying to make anything up." Amy replied." Okay, I will try and confirm what you are telling me. But let's try and keep this low. You can
The man came closer and showed Zico some system wordings and code. " I think this happened to the person you needed to trace his account some years back. He got a message from some mysterious person named System." The man said handing the laptop to Zico. " What system? Does that even make sense?" Zico asked, as he collected the system from him, not like he understood what the coding and message were about." Care to enlighten me on what this is about?" Zico told the man. " Well, I will need to dig deeper to find out what the system is all about," he said and went to his seat.Zico immediately called Zaco and told him they had a lead already. " Yes!." Zaco shouted with great pleasure at the news he had gotten from his brother. " At last! Good news." He said and smiled. Zico continued his investigation into the mysterious System that seemed to have a connection with Max's sudden wealth. The man, engrossed in his work, tapped away at the keyboard, digging deeper into the intricate web o
As the tension heightened at the mysterious location, a strange car pulled up, its windows heavily tinted. The atmosphere became even more charged with anticipation. Zaco and Zico, still masked and ready for whatever might unfold, exchanged glances, sensing an unexpected twist in the situation.Darius whispered to Max, "Stay alert. We don't know what's about to happen, but we need to be ready for anything." Max nodded, his nerves on edge.The car door creaked open, and a figure clothed in dark attire emerged. The strangers exchanged glances with Zaco and Zico before heading toward the main point. Tension filled the air as everyone wondered who these newcomers were and what role they played in the unfolding drama.Suddenly, without warning, shots rang out. Zaco caught off guard, staggered back, clutching his shoulder where a bullet had struck. Chaos ensued as Zico reacted swiftly, shielding his twin brother while returning fire. They immediately entered the car. Zico tried to make sure
The following day was filled with a tense and relentless pursuit of answers. Max, Darius, and Irrisia were determined more than ever to know who the system was and what it had to do with Zaco and Zico, their arch enemy.Max, still reeling from the sudden violence and the freezing of his accounts, became more resolute in his quest for the truth. He reached out to his contacts, trying to gather any information that could lead them to the heart of the System. The encrypted message they received only fueled Max's determination, knowing that the danger was far from over.Meanwhile, Zaco, recovering from his shoulder wound, grew increasingly frustrated with the lack of leads on the assailants. His twin brother, Zico, worked tirelessly with his team to trace the encrypted message back to its source. The image of Max, Darius, and Irrisia became a focal point in their investigation.Zaco, fueled by a mix of anger and curiosity, insisted on finding Max. "We need answers, Zico. Max and his frien
As they caught their breath, Max looked at his team with pride. "We've faced darkness within and without, and we've emerged stronger every time. Together, we are unstoppable."[ Ting! ]All the members looked at their phones and were surprised to see that the system was asking for a meeting with the superheroes. [ Task: Come with the containment of the darkness. Reward: meeting with the SYSTEM."]All the members looked at each other surprised. " Is this real? Are we meeting the person assigning us the task all this while?" Irrisia asked with disbelief. " There is a possibility that this is it. We might be finally meeting with the enigmatic figure behind who the system is." Max chuckled.They looked at Dr Lin who had been murdered by the darkness. " He deserves a befitting burial. He is a hero." Amy said with sadness in her eyes. Eddy moved close to her, " It will be alright." he said hugging her close to himself.The crew immediately took the containment and also decided to move Za

Max raised a toast, "To love and overcome darkness together."The crew, now a tight-knit family, continued their journey, ready to face new adventures and uncertainties. Love, friendship, and the resilience to stand against the shadows defined their path as they moved forward, bound by the experiences that forged them into heroes.

Zaco let out a cry of pain each time Shades tried to mind-control him. " You are hurting me. Zico, how can you let them do this to me? I am your brother, remember?" He said trying to reach out to Zico but Shades knew it was the darkness talking. " Don't listen to him, Zico. That is not your brother. Just let me do my thing." The doctor came back and immediately ordered them to release the last sleeping gases. Immediately it was released, Zico fell into a long slumber, giving Doctor Lin the chance to inject him. Shades also fell to the ground, as he had lost strength and the crew members gathered around him. " Are you alright?" they all asked showing a concerned look." I will be fine. I can't believe this darkness is still as strong as ever. I think he could do much harm because the host is damaged and weak. I wonder why it refused to come out." Shades said, cleaning his bloody nose.Doctor Lin injected Zaco with the sleeping pills, carefully monitoring his vitals. The crew gathere
The crew decided to check on Zaco after a few months. As they entered the facility where he was held. Max looked about to see a lot of villains who had been caged for one reason or the other. As they approached Zaco's holding cell. Max looked at Zico, " It is okay if you want to stay back. I will understand." " No, I need to see how he is doing. He might have even been remorseful and decided to turn a new leaf." Zico replied.They were met by Doctor Lin who welcomed them. " Hello, my heroes. How are you doing" he said with a smile." We are all good. We have come to check on Zaco. How is he? How long do you think you can extract the darkness out of him?" Max asked looking at the man before him." Hmm, Max. That is a very great question. Right now we are trying our best to make sure he is powerless and doesn't mind controlling anyone from where he is. The darkness is trying to have full control over his body but the body is weak."" What do you mean by a weak body?" Zico asked." The
Having said all that, Max knelt before Irrisia as everyone looked at him and was surprised to see what he was doing. " Max! What are you doing?" Irrisia asked with a shaky voice.He brought out a ring and looked into her eyes as the other members of the crew stood in admiration "Irrisia, from the moment we faced the darkness together, I realized that you are not just a teammate but the strength that kept me going. Will you marry me?" Max asked, his eyes filled with sincerity.Irrisia caught off guard, felt a mixture of emotions. The crew watched in anticipation, knowing that this moment was a celebration not just for Max and Irrisia but for the bonds they had all formed.Irrisia's eyes welled up with tears as she nodded, "Yes, Max. A thousand times yes." The crew erupted into cheers, celebrating the union of two souls who had faced the depths of darkness and emerged stronger together. Both of them kissed as the crew applauded the couple. It was long overdue as Irrisia had waited for
After the battles against darkness, the crew gathered in a solemn ceremony to honor the memories of those heroes who had lost their lives. A memorial was erected in the heart of the city, a tribute to the sacrifices made for the greater good. Max, Shades, Amy, Irrisia, Eddy, and the rest of the crew stood together, paying their respects. There was a moment of silence throughout the city as many people who didn't even know how the heroes were paid their respect to them. As the sun dipped below the horizon, casting a warm glow on the memorial, Max stepped forward. "We stand here not just as individuals but as a united front against the forces that sought to plunge our world into darkness. Today, we remember those who fought valiantly and gave their lives for the cause. They will forever be remembered and lived on in our hearts."Shades approached the memorial, placing a wreath as a symbol of remembrance. "Their courage will forever be etched in our hearts. As we move forward, let us ca
As Zaco was locked away, the country started to rebuild and the people joined in the building. Most now knowing about the superheroes were in awe and grateful at the same time. They flock around Max and his crew thanking them. " We wouldn't have done it without you guys. Thanks for staying strong." Max said, shaking some of them as they clustered around him. The president called the crew to the presidential villa to thank and award them. A red carpet was rolled out, and the crew walked down it, a mix of exhaustion and pride evident in their expressions. The president stood at the end, ready to express his gratitude."Max, Shades, Amy, Irrisia, Eddy, and the entire crew," the president began, "your bravery and sacrifice have saved countless lives. On behalf of the nation, I want to extend my deepest thanks."As the president presented medals to each member of the crew, the atmosphere was a blend of solemnity and celebration. The public, watching the event live, erupted in cheers and a
The underground lair echoed with the aftermath of the intense battle. Max and Shades stood amidst the remnants of the clash, the air heavy with the residue of energy. Zaco, now freed from the grip of the darkness, knelt on the ground, panting.Shades approached cautiously, his energy still on guard. "Is it over, Max?"Max, exhausted but victorious, nodded. "For now. The darkness has retreated, and Zaco seems to be regaining control. We need to make sure he's not a threat."Zaco looked up, his eyes reflecting a mix of confusion and realization. "What... happened? Where am I?"Max said nothing as he sat down on the bare floor looking at Shades who immediately put Zaco to sleep. " Do you think the darkness is gone?" He asked looking at Max exhausted." I am not sure Shades but I just need us to rebuild and get this person to their families. I am too exhausted to think of any possible outcome right now." Max got up and looked at Shades." What about him? What do we do with him?" Shades as
As the crew worked tirelessly to evacuate the people under Zaco's influence, Max continued his intense battle against the combined forces of Zaco and the darkness. The air crackled with energy as their powers clashed in a fierce struggle.Meanwhile, Shades utilized his unique abilities to break the illusions created by Zaco, freeing those trapped in the dark influence. Rose, Carlos, Amy, and Irrisia assisted in guiding the bewildered individuals toward the exit, ensuring their safety.Eddy, with his tech skills, reinforced the passage created by Max, ensuring a swift and secure evacuation. Darius, now reinvigorated after drinking water, joined the efforts to help people move out.As the last of the captives exited Zaco's lair, Eddy turned to Shades, "We can't leave Max alone in this. We need to find a way to support him."Shades nodded, his focus divided between the ongoing battle and coordinating the evacuation. "I'll join Max. The rest of you, get everyone to safety. We can't let Za
