Episode I: Black on Black

It was about a week since the event of AWDS. After escaping with Von Bolt's chair, Hawke used it to restore the life to Omega Land, then to rebuild his army. He secretly contacted Lash, who snuck away from the Allied Nations to rejoin him. He then retrieved Flak and Adder from Macro Land, and the reunited CO's gathered to crush the Bolt Guard remnants. They were hiding out in Omega Land, but Adder found them easily enough. Kindle and Koal went forth to defend their last bastion, but something unforeseen happened…

"We have a problem."

Kindle hated it when soldiers said that. It was probably the phrase that she would most often wish she hadn't heard. But she asked what it was anyway.

"Well, milady, our forward base has fallen to the enemy. The flanking bases seem to be next."

Kindle sighed. Then, she jerked, and smiled. "We may not be done for yet. My Super CO Power has charged up, and Koal's did a while ago… Koal!" she shouted at her second, who was standing off to the side of the HQ's war room. "Prepare to Tag Break!"

Koal looked up, then grinned. "No, I think not."

"What," Kindle gasped.

"I said, no. I've been waiting years for an opportunity like this… to take my vengeance for what you did to me. While your last hope of eventual conquest crumbling down around your ears, and you about to be taken by Black Hole… seems to be a perfect time, don't you agree?" With that, he fled into the teleportation device kept in all Black Hole (and Bolt Guard) HQs. He appeared outside, next to his custom tank. He was just about to enter it when he noticed Jugger standing behind him.

"What do you want, Jugger? If your intention is to take me back-"
"Negative. Desire of unknown origin has compelled Jugger to follow you. Query: are you going to join Black Hole?"
"Hmm… yes, in fact. If you want to come with me, that's fine."

And so, Koal and Jugger joined Black Hole. Kindle was nowhere to be seen after her defeat. Afterwards, a year passed where nothing really happened. Black Hole was not seen to be preparing for war, and Kindle seemed to have vanished entirely. Of course, you know that nothing in Wars World is ever solved that easily…
