"This has gone on long enough. I want that damned boy killed, that useless good-for-nothing scrapped, and the Uranus Queen and the second generation brought back here! Send the second generation Zeta after them." The Angeloid Master demanded.
"But, Master. Zeta is known to-" a Harpy started.
"Are you defying my orders?!" He yelled, slamming a fist down.
"N-no, Master. Of course not, Master. I'll get him right away." The Harpy said before bowing and running off. A few minutes later she came back with a tall and thin Angeloid with pale skin, red eyes, and black hair and wings. He was wearing what looked like a black hooded trench coat and dark grey collar.
"What?" The Angeloid spoke in a whisper.
"I have an assignment for you, Zeta." The Masters voice echoed through the pavilion.
"No." The Zeta said.
The Master got a cruel smile as a chain extended from the Zeta's collar and into his clenching fist. "I own you, Zeta."
In response, the Zeta grabbed the chain and pulled, shattering the links. "No. You don't."
"Harpies! Attack him!" The Master screamed in fear.
"I shan't waste my time on you." He said, turning around and walking away. The Harpies responded and shot at him, causing a large dust cloud to cover the white marble columns. When the smoke and dust cleared, the Zeta was gone.
"NO! FIND HIM! KILL HIM! THAT'S AN ORDER! KILL HIM, KILL HIM, KILL HIM!" The infuriated Master shouted.
On Earth, everything was quiet and peaceful. Tomoki, Astraea, Nymph, and Ikaros were in the living room. Nymph was watching her soap operas and eating potato chips while Astraea and Tomoki were yelling at each other, constantly calling each other a "dummy". Ikaros was sitting next to Nymph, cradling her watermelon in her arms.
"Hey, be quiet you two! I'm trying to watch my soaps!" Nymph yelled at Tomoki and Astraea. In response, they both got quiet and stuck their tongues out at each other.
"Nymph, please don't yell at Master." Ikaros said.
"I can't help it that he's loud and obnoxious." Nymph replied, biting a chip.
Chaos ran into the room. "Onii-chan!" The happy Angeloid burst out, running to Tomoki and jumping into his arms.
"Hey, Chaos." Tomoki said with a chuckle and pet the small Angeloid on the head. "I see you're home. How was the trip with Sohara?" He asked.
"It was fun, Onii-chan, but I missed you a lot!" She said. Tomoki found it funny that an unstoppable killing machine could be so cute and innocent looking.
"Did you thank Sohara for paying for the trip to the beach?" Tomoki asked.
"Yes, Onii-chan." Chaos told him.
"Good." Tomoki said. Chaos sat down and snuggled into Tomoki's side. Tomoki half smiled and wrapped his arm around her tiny body. Ikaros stared at them and looked at her watermelon. She placed it by her side and mimicked Tomoki's actions, feeling jealous. She wanted to be with Master.
Zeta landed in a small town, next to a sign that read "Sorami". He took a long look around the small town. It was in between mountains. If he had to guess, it would have a population of about six- no- seven thousand residents. He never heard about it so it must not have been known for anything particularly interesting. He spotted a large cherry tree that must have been at least a hundred years old. It was a very peaceful and boring town.
He hid his large black wings and walked towards the tree. He put his hood up, hiding his jet black hair. The bright sun beamed in his eyes, but he didn't mind. He passed a purple-haired teenager walking her dog in a sundress who stared at him. She was thinking how he could possibly be walking around in the heat with a black trench coat.
Zeta ignored her and continued towards the tree. When he got on top of the hill, he took a step towards the tree but stopped. He turned his head to a very small tree with no leaves on it and acorns scattered around its thin trunk. He walked towards it and got on one knee and picked an acorn up and observed it.
He put the acorn in his pocket and stood up. He walked to the trunk of the cherry tree and put his hand on it. He walked around the base of the tree, keeping his hand on it. He looked up at the clear, azure sky. This place reminded him of Synapse for some reason. That didn't make Zeta very happy. He walked away from the tree and towards the town.
Mikako opened the door to Tomoki's house and waltzed right in. She walked into his living room.
"Hey! At least knock before you come in!" Tomoki shouted.
"If you don't want me to come in, don't leave your door unlocked." Mikako said. "Anyway, I saw some person walking around in a black coat while I was walking my dog. In the middle of the summer. I dropped my dog off at my house and came right here."
"Huh. I guess that is kind of weird." Tomoki said.
"It looked like he was headed for the cherry tree." Mikako said.
"Onii-chan, I sense a very strong Angeloid. Very, very strong." Chaos said, looking up at Tomoki.
"Oh, jeez." Tomoki said.
"I sense it too, Master." Ikaros said,
"Me three." Nymph joined.
"Me blue." Astraea chimed in.
"Where is she?" Tomoki asked.
"How do you know it's a girl?" Mikako asked.
"Look around. Do you see any female Angeloids?" Tomoki replied.
"In town, Master." Ikaros told him. "Should we go investigate?"
Tomoki let out a huge sigh and stood up. "Yeah, I guess. Jeez, I can never get any peace and quiet anymore. It's always 'strong Angeloid this' and 'strong Angeloid that'."
"Well, what are we waiting for? Let's go find her." Mikako said.
"Yeah! Maybe she knows what love is!" Chaos said, excitedly.
"I see you still want to know what love is. How cute." Mikako said.
"Lets just go." Tomoki huffed, walking outside.s
