>Location: Alteria - Prism World

>The dimension of Alteria is a unique dimension existing in a different phase state - and separate from that of the main universe.


>As a separate dimension in another world, Alteria is home to the planet Machina - its analogue to Earth.


>Machina is a large, technologically advanced "hypercity" of a world - filled with various technological devices and equipment powered by mana. The capital city of Machina is called Concentus.


>As the capital city of the entire planet, Concentus is home to an entire race of beings, very similar to humans. These human adjacent beings are called the Formiacs, and the best among them are chosen to become Paragons - technomagical warriors and hunters, trained to fight off the supernatural monsters native to their dimension.


>Monsters like the beings terrorizing the planet right now.

>Now weakened, the armored figure can only look up as the rings are telekinetically removed from his hands. Afterwards, Doctor dematerializes the swords as Barbatos falls to the ground on both knees. Panting, he then says:

"….No. Not again. I can't be helpless again….Not after…All of the pain."

>The armor protecting Barbatos then fades away slowly into dust, as the athletic form of a young man in ancient clothing kneels before Doctor. The man has long, luscious locks of dark black hair - and blood red eyes. He's slightly androgynous in appearance, while still leaning towards masculine, accentuating a level of beauty rivaled only by the Gods.


>Narrowing his eyes behind his mask, Doctor then says:


"…..You seem familiar. I'm not sure why-"

>Doctor then feels his eyes open wide, as his supernatural Mask of Ma'at divinates the proper information to him.


"….Iblis? The Djinn?"

>Iblis wakes up in a haze, as his eyes slowly focus on the view in front of him. Rising to his feet, he immediately looks down at his fingers and sees them normal as always. However, they lack the 10 rings he wore prior to his defeat.


"Blast! Curse it all!"

>Punching his fist down reflexively into the ground, he's startled to find that his fist goes through the ground, only now realizing that he was punching sand - on a beach.


"What? Have I been transported without my knowledge?"

>Looking upward from his hand, Iblis realizes that he is now stuck on a beach with crashing waves and a peaceful environment. The soft rays of the sun shine down on him, as he makes his way towards the beach.

"Well, at least he's calmed down now."

>Closing the mechanical lid of the Babylon Disc, Isaac then places it on the table in front of him - and then looks next to him at Stephanie. Sighing, he then ruffles his long hair slightly, fixing it up and stylizing it partially as he says:


"It's a certainty now. The Thaumians are still around, and they're definitely planning to make a return. I'm just not sure why now?"

>Personal Log, 03.01.17:

"This city is sick, rotting from the inside as parasites from above and below suck it dry, causing the wounds to fester, to burst, leaving behind cancerous growths that weaken its fiber even more.

The people are blind to this, blind to the depravity hidden below the surface, but I, I am aware, and I know now how to cleanse this city. The answer is so simple now that I see it. . .

The city needs a butcher, someone willing to cut off the tumors, and I am that person, I have been chosen.

My friend comes to me at night, they chose me because I understand now, because my eyes have been opened. Because I have seen the message of my counterpart in the sanctuary.

One day, I hope that my work will be complete, but it is not, so my righteous task continues. . ."

>The darkness of night covers the city that never sleeps, the cloak of shadow created by the cloudy night sky creating little islands of light around the yellow streetlamps. Outside of these areas of light, the darkness is more pronounced than it would be in the natural world, providing the perfect cover for those who would rather their business not be seen by others.


>One of these groups, a collection of people in the middle of a drug deal, is found on this unassuming spring night. More formal than a typical deal, both parties are flanked by their own respective bodyguards, each of them armed and ready to deal with any intruders.


>Just outside of the main deal, around the corner in a different alley, one of the dealer's more typical clientele can be found, waiting for their turn. . .


>As the deal seems to come to an end, and both parties go to shake on the terms, an arrow flies through the air, sailing right into the dealer's eye, sending him flying back to the nearest wall and pinning him to it.


>Before any of the others get much chance to react, three more arrows plummet down from above, each hitting a different target and trapping them against some form of object. Not every arrow is lethal, however, leaving their marks in pain.

>The sun rises over New York City, bathing the city in the rays of light, and revealing the scene from the previous night.


>Before long, the alleyway is closed off, the typical police tape blocking the path into it, with police officers and cars forming impromptu barricades at either side. While a few onlookers try to get a peak beyond the barriers, they are quickly moved onwards by the officers.


>With the cordon effectively established, another police car pulls up, this one an unmarked vehicle, and two men step out, one old and experienced, the other one much younger than him, and clearly lacking experience.


>The two men make their way beyond the police line, seeing the carnage from the previous night, the younger of the two heaving when he sees the bodies, earning a chuckle from the older man.


"It's alright kid, that reaction just shows you've still got a heart. . ."

>The older man looks around quickly before flagging over one of the police officers.

>The morning sun shines through the window of a Brooklyn apartment, its rays shining down on the occupant, a young woman who looks to be no older than her 20s.


>Suddenly, an alarm goes off, disturbing the woman, who groggily groans and slams her hand down on the clock making the sound, silencing it.


>Satisifed, the woman turns around and murmurs something in her sleep.


>Then, another noise interrupts the woman - the sound of someone knocking of her door. This noise manages to rouse her, pulling her out of bed and slowly over to the door, her journey only stopped to move a chair from a small dining table so that she can reach the peephole.


>With a yawn, the woman looks through the door to see her visitor is someone she recognises, the building's superintendent, and she wearily opens the door on the latch so that she can talk through it.


>With a yawn, she addresses the man:

"Yeaaah?"

>Distant sirens blare as a research facility goes into lockdown. As more lights blare, research personnel inside of the facility begin frantically running towards exits. Cursing to themselves, the researchers hurridly look at their documents, still cursing to themselves.


"Shit! We're running out of time. The structural blueprint hasn't been fully decoded!"

>A researcher says to themselves, quickly barreling around the nearest hallway while continuing to talk into their phone.


"I know! I know! But we haven't figured out the proper sequencing method! We don't know if the program can fully complete the process! This is biological code! Not some random program! It could take decades-"

>The researcher is then knocked back by a violent explosion, sent spiraling across the room and knocked to the floor - spiraling across the ground. Damaged by the force of the explosion, the researcher can feel a ruptured rib cage, and the searing pain of a pinched nerve in his lung. Reeling from the pain, he looks up, with hazy vision slowly making out a blurry figure in the distance - at the edge of the hallway.

>Using his mental abilities, Omnius has managed to calm the red man - putting him in a state of suspended thought. He narrows his eyes slightly, and begins delving into the man's memories.


>This continues for several moments in silence - only for the giant to suddenly collapse forward, asleep.

>In the evening, at least, before everyone finishes work, however, Valentine's Day is a day like any other, people go about their work as if the day was just the same as every other day.


>Although, perhaps, with a bit of extra cheer in their hearts.


>This nature of a day like any other day is reflected in the movement of Sanctuary City itself, the ebb and flow of the traffic undisturbed by simple date like "February 14th".

>Date: March 1st, 2017
>Location: Paradise City - Southwestern United States
>Time: 11:00 AM

>A large, coastline city, situated off of the Californian coast - Paradise City is the 3rd of the 5 big "Core Cities" that house Meta-Humans in the United States. Created as a secondary failsafe in the event that Sanctuary City reached its peak carrying capacity - Paradise City remains a secondary hub for Meta-Human activity on the West Coast.


>The city itself is a series of spread out, island-like structures; each connected with a series of pneumatically powered bridges and rail systems. Hovercraft are licensed in the city, as large futuristic structures carefully gleam across the skies. Various hovering monorail systems move across the city's structures as well - contrasting against the glistening waters below.


>A loud humming sound can be heard in the distance, roaring with power as it disrupts the serene and calm air space. Rushing through the air - a large metallic apparatus moves across the clouds at high velocities. Exceeding the speed of sound, the large object slowly begins rotating on its side, its fins guiding its movement.


>The missile's trajectory is aimed squarely at Paradise City's center, directly surrounding the various buildings and skyscrapers that make up the Downtown area of the city. However before the missile can begin its downward arcing descent, a pair of bright red lasers pierce the clouds behind the missile - cutting it in half. Searing plasma scorch marks can be seen from the missile as smoke billows from the metallic chamber, the internal contents of the missile burning up in the air before cooling down in the waters below.


>Then a figure in black and red, a cape billowing behind them, quickly rushes to the clouds, hovering in mid-air as they look around.


"That's the last of them. Now I just need to find Energon…."

>Generating bright golden lightning again, Scalar then begins moving at a rapid speed, creating after-images in his wake that move in brief static displays of motion.

>Grunting again in confusion, Aleph looks around to see dozens of these after-images surrounding him in the room. Before he can react, he then hears a loud sonic boom - powerful enough to stagger him briefly.


>Stunned, the man then stares upward at the actual Scalar. As his hands remain outstretched, he then says:


"If that doesn't get your attention then….."

>Shouting loudly again, Aleph then rushes towards Scalar - as the latter then begins running out of the laboratory. The emergency shutdown protocols have locked the main blast doors shut - including the exit doors.


{'Likely Chiral's doing there."}

>Concentrating again, Scalar vibrates his body - harmlessly phasing through the blast doors as he reaches the outside entrance to the laboratory. In his hands he carries a set of papers and documents that he's neatly folded up into his costume's belt.

{"He's too deranged to think clearly. That might be a side effect of the cloning process. I wish I could save him, but I've got to get this information to the surface."}

>Turning the next corner, Scalar turns around, causing Aleph to rush towards him, shouting in anger still. Scalar then assumes a defensive position, thinking to himself:


{"I'm sorry that your existence was defined by this - being used as a weapon. A tool for someone else's benefit. No one should ever be reduced to that."}

>Aleph then closes the distance rapidly, 30 meters away from Scalar….20 meters…….10 meters…..


{"And I will find the man who did this, made you and robbed you of a future. I can promise you that."}

>…..Nearly 1 meter……

>Landing on the ground, roughly a quarter mile from the wreckage of the burning building - Scalar groans slightly as he sits upward. Taking in the visuals of the bright sky, he then sees MRD hovercraft in the distance. Recognizing that the MRD are now investigation the scene, he then stands up and pulls the folded notes from his pocket.

"At least I have this."

>Unfolding the notes, Scalar then reads them briefly, skimming over the important details. His eyes widen behind his lenses again as he states:


"….What exactly is 'Eukaryota'? Is that the name of the organization that handled the laboratory?"

>Sighing, Scalar then looks around - moving to view the Archeon Incorporated tower in the distance.


"Might as well report back to Mosaic and Hyperia. I'm going to need their help for this one - since Chiral's probably picked me as priority one, once he's learned that I survived the encounter."

>Confused, Scalar then places the notes back in his belt, plants his feet on the ground - then generates a surge of golden lightning as he rushes off into the city.

>There are various magnetic pole harnesses that allow easy transportation from one area of the hideout to another. As Scalar moves up one of the pole transport mechanisms, he calls out above:

Above this castle that was and never was, a distortion sits within the sky, calmly ebbing and flowing, a single tendril reaching from it to the castle below.


>On this day, the castle is busy, far busier than it appears to be used to, people of various races, cultures, and creeds are gathered within the main courtyard, their shouts and arguments making them look more like a mob than a gathering. Looking over them, a man with long black hair stands over the gate, his eyes following their movements carefully, taking in everything that happens. . .


>On the opposite side of the courtyard, another black-haired man stands, trying to calm the crowd down.


"Please. . . please. . . we understand your issues, this conclave would not have been called if we did not understand the weight of this situation, but you must remain. . ."

>A voice calls out from the crowd.


"The Prydwens promised us peace as long as we followed the statute of secrecy, these signs show they have failed!"

"The only thing that could do that is on the other side of the rift! Why have you betrayed us?!"

>Mosaic then turns to look at the figure, stating:

"Not much else to say Kaiyo. Just hope your sister can crack the code. Chiral needs to be stopped before he destroys the city."

>Mosaic rubs the back of his gloves, continuing:


"…Because something tells me he's got a bone to pick with someone, or something here, honestly. The Breakers are just one vector he's using to get what he's after. He's probably got more proxies, and we need to find them - as soon as possible."

>Standing up, he then looks at Kaiyo one more time, before turning around; quickly jumping off of Hoyokazi Tower - then gliding through the city below with his reinforced cloak.

>The figure shrugs, watching Mosaic fly off, leans on the wall for a moment.

>The voice of Hiyuki comes from around the corner, speaking in Japanese.


"<I assumed he would try to convince us to leave once more, I suppose there's at least some wisdom in there. . .>"

>The figure takes off her mask with another shrug and takes the drive out, throwing it around the corner to Hiyuki.


"<Of course I can 'crack the code', when have I ever failed to do that? It would be an embarrassment if I couldn't, their secrets are our secrets, after all.>"

>Hiyuki comes around the corner, watching Mosaic's path away from the tower.


"<It would be best if you took us back to the safe house, a foolish general keeps his head out in the open on the battlefield, particularly not dealing with an enemy with such a choleric temperament.>"

>With a small sigh, Kaiyo offers her hand out for Hiyuki to take, and the shadows begin to rise once more. . .

>The sounds of clicking and tapping fill the room, bouncing and echoing off the sterile, colorless floors and walls of the room. Being a lab, the room is full of various equipment and computers, most of which appearing ahead of their time for one reason or another.


>Near-by, a pair of young children - one a blonde boy and the other a reddish-brown haired girl sit next to each other on a mostly cleared off counter top.


"Can we get up now?"

>The boy looks at a tall, blonde man in a lab coat typing away at a computer. Without giving the children so much of a glance, he sternly replies:


"No."

>Stephanie begins blinking rapidly. She stares at Isaac, while letting out a nervous laugh. Near-by, the lights begin to flicker violently, corresponding with her laughter.

>After a few moments she manages to calm herself, and takes Isaac's hand.


"H-Hi."

>Stephanie begins shaking Isaac's hand just a little faster and harder than would be expected. Still nervous, she says:


"I'm Stephanie."

>She continues shaking Isaac's hand, while staring at him just long enough for it to be come a bit awkward. Realizing this, she releases her grip and turns her attention away from him - coughing into her fist.


>Afterwards she looks at Thoth, asking:

>Thoth nods slowly as he redirects a set of tomes in the air with his hand.

"Of course. You were chosen by the Empyrean - the Crystal. As such, you are the inheritor of this domain, along with Isaac here."

>Putting a hand on Stephanie's shoulder, Thoth continues to speak:


"Do not disparage yourself, Sorceress. Your past actions have no bearing on your future choices - and you were not given the power to make your own decisions in the past."

>Thoth then looks up at the libraries in the distance, taking his hand off of Stephanie's shoulder as he continues:


"I would've intervened sooner, if not for the decision of the Empyrean. For whatever reason, it chose this moment, right now, to send for aid with your situation. I do not pretend to know why that is - but I will not question the will of the Crystal, nor its power."

>Thoth nods as he makes another incantation, snapping his fingers as a few golden sparks fly from said fingers.

"I've just transported Orion to Sanctuary City. He's in one of the properties that Isaac owns in Wiseman Faults. Speaking of which…"

>Thoth then speaks to Isaac.


"Isaac, the quarterly reports are due in a few days. I trust you've managed your assets carefully?"

>Isaac sighs as he rubs the back of his neck, stating:


"Year over year margins are up, Thoth. I'm not a new investor here."

>Thoth then nods and smiles.

>A few hours later…

>Stephanie stands before Orion, surrounded by tall stalks of grass. Having just spent the past several minutes explaining what had happened, she says:


"So… I've decided that I'm going to accept it. It's… strange. And It doesn't sound like I had much of a choice in the first place… but at least I can do some actual good with it."

>Orion stares at his sister, mouth hung open in disbelief.


"You're really going to just go live with some stranger? And leave me?"

"No! Orion!"

>Stephanie immediately throws herself into her brother, hugging him.

>Location: Sanctuary City - Downtown
>Time: 12:00 PM

>A dozen or so cars barrel down the streets of Sanctuary City's highway, loose change and dollar bills flying from the open windows. Casings of metal bullets litter the road - in the wake of the various cars, while MRD Hovercraft vehicles chase after them. The city's downtown region is barricaded, with various major streets blocked off to passers by - as well as segmented off to civilians.


>The lead MRD Hovercraft then activates its speakers, the voice of the platoon speaking through:


["Brigadiers! You are violating Sanctuary City law through armed robbery and attempted retreat! Pull over or we'll be forced to open fire on your vehicles!"]

>The Brigadiers in the cars seemingly respond by firing more bullets into the air - attempting to divert the MRD from their path.


>Inside of one of the Brigadier cars, a Brigadier Meta-Human turns their hooded head towards the backseat - looking at the cash piles in the back.


"Man, Phobos is gonna kick our asses for this!"

>Hiyuki adjusts her glasses.


"Thank you for the information, it shall hopefully prove to be helpful, but we should likely be leaving, seeing as we have no further business."

>With a small bow, Hiyuki turns to leave, Kaiyo moving to flank her.


"When both parties can agree to mutual benefit, these dealings end up going much more smoothly, don't you think? I am pleased that you were willing to work with us in this matter. . ."

"But we will no longer require your services, any future collaboration will be purely incidental."

>Mosaic scratches the bottom of his mask as he sighs, shaking his head.

"If you want my advice, you should take the first plane out of the city. Now that you're actually here, you're even more of a target for this guy."

>Mosaic then points at Kaiyo, saying:


"I know exactly what you're thinking. Well, not exactly since I don't just read minds without permission. But you get my point."

>Silent for moment, he then states:


"I've been trying to find the guy for weeks now, but he's masking his presence. Even I can't find him - and I can find basically anyone in this city without too much effort. So what does that tell you?"

>Mosaic stares directly at Hiyuki, with a level of seriousness not seen before.

{"Yeah she's gonna be in trouble if she stays here. I need to find out what Chiral's up to - and fast."}

>Mosaic then jumps up - phasing through the ceiling of the office and flies towards the top of the Archeon Complex.


>After he reaches the top, Mosaic phases through the floor and lands on the ground, tapping the side of his mask to activate his comms unit.


"Arachnid. Meet me here in a few minutes. Top of the Archeon building."

>After a few minutes - a series of web strands wrap around the top of the Archeon Complex - as a figure in a black and red bodysuit, jacket and futuristic outfit lands on the rooftop behind Mosaic - in the middle of his talk.


"…..Alright Jonah. I'll see what I can do about the activity in Haven City for you."

"So, how's your friend doing? Bella."

>Arachnid stares at Mosaic for a moment, his digital lenses on his mask narrowing.


"She's barely my friend. More like my second boss - given how much she asks. But I guess she's alright. We stopped a Meta-Human who tried to steal money using illusion powers. So that was neat."

>Mosaic nods again slowly in approval.


"You're doing a good job. Just remember, if she tries doing anything out of the ordinary, you might need to let me know."
