Strangereal

Gracemeria

Strangereal was somewhat peaceful at the moment but there are small fights going off in random locations across the planet but those fights are mostly around Belka, Yuktobania, and Estovakia.

In a hotel, Chris lied in his bed with Cerina lying next to him with her head resting on his chest.

Chris smiled and ran his fingers through her hair without waking her and felt at peace before his eyes widen as his mind was filled by a vision.

Vision

Chris looks around to see that he was floating through the air before he hears the roar of engines and looks to see fighter jets fly through the air before two F-15C Eagles fly close with both having the iconic paint jobs. The right red wing and two dark blue wings and fins.

They were Solo Wing Pixy and Cipher.

"Engaging the enemy." Cipher said before doing a barrel roll to avoid a missile before the other jets fly around to avoid missiles and gunfire before mobile suits, Valkyries, and TSFs fly through the air and attack Imperial mobile suits and starfighters before all is blocked by clouds.

Suddenly two F-15C Eagle TSFs flew through the clouds but one F-15 had its entire right arm colored red while the other had dark blue arms and Jump Unit. These machines were piloted by Solo Wing and Cipher.

"This is Galm 1, we are approaching the objective." Cipher said as the clouds fade away to reveal that the field changed to show that mobile suits, jets, Valkyries, and starfighters were flying through the air

"Our target is the Lucifer's Wrath, Hades Pike, Sword of Tartarus, and Satan's Spear. Destroy those and moral for the Empire will be destroyed and we'll have victory over the Empire the rights to our world." Eagle Eye said.

"Garuda team along with the Swords of Vengeance and Courage are going after the Satan's Pear and the Chandelier." Ghost Eye said.

"Razgriz are going along with Swords of Justice, War, and that rookie are going after the Hades Pike and the Hrimfaxi." Said Oka Nieba.

"Mobius Squadron is moving along with the Swords of Knowledge to engage the Sword of Tartarus and the Megalith." Said Sky Eye.

"Galm team is moving into take out the Lucifer's Wrath along with the Swords of Redemption, Strength, Heart, Bravery, and Honor. The Lucifer's Wrath will be making its way over Area B7R. AKA the Round Table." Eagle Eye said before the clouds vanish to show multiple TSFs, mobile suits, Valkyries, and five Gundams with two Gundams shadowed by the clouds.

"The Sword of Skill is in B7R. Sword of Honor, you know what to do." Eagle Eye said before the vision began to fade.

Real life

Chris sat up quickly which wakes up Cerina who looks at him in concern as during the vision he began sweating.

"What's wrong?" Cerina asked in concern.

"It's nothing. Just a bad dream." Chris answered.

Chris lays back down and Cerina lays with him as he ran his fingers through her hair as he thought about what he saw.

Gracemeria beach

"Oh this is just amazing!" Euphemia shouted as she stood on a beach dressed in a white and pink striped two piece bikini.

"It's actually a beautiful day." John said as he walked up next to Euphie dressed in a white T-shirt and black swim trunks.

John wrapped his arm around Euphie's shoulder and she rests her head on his shoulder as both had smiles as they bathed in the sun light.

"I wish we can stay like this forever." Euphemia said with a sad smile.

"So do I but as a Sword of Heaven I have a duty to protect and save the innocent." John said with his own sad smile before he kisses her on the forehead.

Mobile suit hanger

Jarod stood at a computer which was stationed near the Lucifer Gundam's cradle.

"Alright try it now!" Jarod shouted to Andrew who was in his Gundam's cockpit.

The pilot of the Lucifer activated his Gundam, the eyes flashing for a brief second before powering down. "Still not working."

"SHIT FUCKING HELL THAT'S THE EIGHTEENTH TIME!" Jarod shouted.

"What's the problem?" Ben asked as he and Arturia walked towards them.

"Something isn't right with the Lucifer's power system." Jarod groans.

"Did you try this." Ben walked towards the dormant Gundam then gave it a swift kick, the action spurred the machine to life.

"GOD DAMMIT! We've been working twenty-four hours straight and we didn't think of that?!" Jarod shouted as he slammed his head into the keyboard.

"Of course not, you're an idiot." Andrew, Arturia, and Ben insulted the slightly crazy boy.

"I may be an idiot to you but I do make some cool stuff." Jarod said as he used Excelion to retrieve a can of soda.

"Aren't those things razor sharp?" Andrew pointed out.

"They are but I can make it so the wires can either be sharp enough to cut flesh and bone or soft enough to not cut the skin on your fingers. Figured it out during that skirmish on Bespin. Used my wires to save a kid's life. Though I freaked when I used my wires to grab him instead of grabbing a building to swing on." Jarod said as he took a sip.

"You are a piece of work, Jarod." Ben muttered with a sigh.

Gracemeria Air Force Base

The roar of jet engines is heard as two F-16s took off.

"Alright so all we need to do is patrol around the beach. Sounds simple." Shamrock said as he flew next to Talisman.

"And we aren't alone." Talisman said as two Z-95 Headhunters flew next to them.

"Try to keep things entertaining if there isn't anything to do." Said a female pilot.

"Well let's see." Shamrock as they flew through the quiet skies.

Command Center

5 hours later

"Alright, we're here! What is it?" Jarod asked as he, Ben, Arturia, and Andrew enter the command center to see Chris, Kallen, Josh, Alex, and John waiting for them all wearing the Swords of Heaven uniforms.

"A message from Dexter." Alex said before he plays the message.

"Guys I've found where Oculus is heading. He's going to Strangereal. You need to prepare defenses for his attack. We are making our way to Strangereal right now but it'll be a while. May the Force serve- I mean be with you! Shit!" Dexter said with the last bit as a shout before cutting the connection.

"Call up every pilot we can muster. I want every fighter, Mobile Suit, soldier, everything up and ready for combat!" Chris ordered.

"At least we have a warning instead of last time." Alex said before he begins issuing orders.

"And maybe we'll finally get a rematch with that bastard!" Jarod said as he punch his left palm with a bloodthirsty grin.

"Don't get overeager, remember he's still a Sith Lord." Alex said as he looked at the young Walker.

"He can still die like any other man." Andrew stated with his arms crossed.

"Let's get to work." John said as he cracked his knuckles.

Hanger

"All units move out!" Talisman shouted as he strapped his helmet on and made his way to his F15E Strike Eagle Jet Fighter.

"Hurry up!" Shouted a Clone trooper in phase one armor.

"Get the AA defenses ready!" Shouted an Emmerian soldier.

"Ben, you, John, and Arturia are to launch first, the rest of us will follow after once you've taken off. Pilots in other nations have already launched and are prepared for imminent Imperial attack." Alex informed.

"Fine, fine, I get it." Ben waved off Alex's info as he started up his Pegasus, the hidden blue eyes flashing to life as it positioned itself onto the linear catapult. "Pegasus Gundam, launching!" The pilot called out before being shot out into the sky.

"Dark Deathscythe, taking off." John said as the Dark Deathscythe took off, unfolding its wings.

Arturia sat in the cockpit of a Delta Plus which was grey and blue.

"Sorry, we didn't have enough time for your Gundam." Alex said to Arturia and she got into position.

The blonde woman nodded in understanding. "It is fine. I can make due with this machine. Arturia Pendragon in Delta Plus, taking off!" She called out as the Delta Plus takes off then transforms into its Waverider form.

"Alright, Andrew, we are having you and Josh close to the bay because scouts are reporting a fleet of aquatic naval ships making their way to Gracemeria." Alex informed as the Lucifer steps onto the catapult.

Andrew sported a feral grin as the Lucifer launches out of the catapult. "No worries, no ship is passing me when I got these badass mothers." He gestured to the Twin Satellite Cannons that ejected forward, charged and ready to fire.

"Hey, be sure to leave some for me." Josh said as the Legends launched after the Lucifer. "Alright, Chris, you and I are going to remain here at Gracemeria base because if we know them… they will come to us." Alex said as the Astraea Plus took off.

"Let them come." Chris stated as the Wing Origin's eyes flashed. "There will be no more mercy from me."

"Just promise not to go overboard." Alex muttered.

"That's something I can't do." The current leader of the Swords of Heaven responded cooly. "Focus on the enemy and nothing else."

"Right. I just hope our loved ones are evacuated in time since the city will be turned into a war zone." Alex said as he saw a trail of civilians going away from Gracemeria.

"We can't worry about that. Otherwise, we'll be distracted so all we can do is just win the battle and send the bastards back with deep wounds." Chris stated. "Besides, I want to make them all bleed and make them remember never to cross us ever again."

"The empire will be taken care of Chris-" Alex was interrupted by an explosion.

"Imperial II-class Star Destroyer coming in! Deploying Hellions and TIE Fighters!" Alex shouted as mobile suits and fighters launched from the Imperial warship.

"All units, eliminate the enemy vessels! Don't let a single Imperial dirtbag get past you!" Chris relayed the order to his troops.

"Sir, yes sir!" Shouted all soldiers of the 501st.

"All units, destroy with extreme prejudice!" Alex ordered as he released the first shot which destroyed a Hellion.

The Wing Origin brings up its Twin Buster Rifle and fires a precise yellow beam, piercing an Imperial cruiser and any Mobile Suits in its path.

The cruiser explodes before the mobile suits fire on the Wing Origin.

The Pegasus appears in front of the Wing Origin in its NT-D Mode, the blue Psychoframe generating a forcefield that repelled the beams while the Lucifer fired its Twin Satellite Cannons at the Sith mobile suits, consuming them in a beam of destruction.

"This isn't right. This is too easy." John said as he cuts two Hellions in half.

"He's right. Where are the others?" Andrew asked as he shot down a TIE Fighter.

"This is Air Warning and Control Ghost Eye to all allied air units: bombers are making a run for the fleeing civilians!" Ghost eye shouted as eight Hyena-bombers and six TIE Bombers flew towards the civilians.

"Garuda-1 to Ghost Eye, we are moving to engage enemy bombers. Requesting assistance from Saber." Talisman said as he and Shamrock flew F-15E's.

"Acknowledged, will provide assistance." Arturia responded as her Delta Plus morphed into its MS Form, brought out its beam saber, and bisects a Genoace in half then morphs back into Waverider.

The two jets and one transformable mobile suit flew towards the path of the enemy bombers.

"I have a lock! Fox three, Fox three!" Shamrock shouted as he fired four XMA6 missiles which flew before slamming into three Hyena's and one TIE and destroying the four.

"Fox two!" Talisman said as he fired a Sidewinder which flew before crashing into a Hyena bomber and sen killed it spinning to the ground.

Arturia pushed the throttle to its maximum as the Delta Plus accelerated towards the bombers. "Firing now!" She declared as a few missiles shot towards the remaining Sith bombers.

"The enemy is at thirty percent strength." Said Ghost Eye as the bombers were destroyed.

"This is way too easy." Talisman muttered.

Chris silently agreed with the fighter pilot before his head began to throb, a vision beginning to appear in his head.

Vision

Soon Chris sees mobile suits and fighters being shot out of the air along with a super star destroyer in the skies before he sees the Vengeance fight against both the Pegasus and Arturia's Delta Plus before sending two cords that punched into the cockpits of both mobile suits as both pilots scream in agonizing pain.

While Chris was busy fighting a familiar Banshee type Gundam before reality kicked in.

Reality

"This is Skykid, the empire is losing its fleet! Let's show these guys how real pilots fly." Sai Skykid as he guns down a TIE Fighter.

"Yeah. Let's take them!" Shouted a clone trooper flying a Z-95.

"Don't go over the rail guys." John said as he cuts down a Hellion.

"Warning! Detecting incoming missiles and a lot of them!" Ghost Eye shouted as streams of mailed flew but the missiles missed only to explode into large fireballs instead of the regular sized explosions.

"Something's not right." Chris muttered.

Orbit

Venator-class Star Destroyer OFS Sentient

"Captain, all Imperial forces are losing strength." Said a clone crewman.

"This is too easy." The captain said uncertain.

"Sir! Incoming contacts! Multiple ships exiting hyperspace!" Shouted a human crewman as multiple ships exit hyperspace and all of them were Imperial.

"Sir, reading one Executor-class making its way to orbit!" Shouted a crewman as said super star destroyer flew past and smashed through two cruisers.

"Get a warning to the surface!" Ordered the captain.

Gracemeria

"Warning, warning! Detecting an Executor-class Super Star Destroyer entering the atmosphere!" Ghost Eye shouted before a shadow covers the entire battlefield and both Gracemeria and the fleeing civilians.

"Shit!" Chris gritted his teeth, already dreading that his vision was becoming a reality. "Andrew, punch a hole in that thing!"

"On it!" Andrew responded, aiming the Twin Satellite Cannons. "Eat this, shitheads!"

Before the satellite cannons could fire a beam punched through both barrels and caused both cannons to explode.

"Son of a bitch!" Andrew exclaimed as he purged the useless weapons.

"Oh, what a shame." A voice said causing Ben and Arturia to widen their eyes widening in surprise and concern.

"It can't be!" Arturia said as the Delta Plus turned to see a familiar Banshee type Gundam.

"Hi, Benny!" The familiar psychotic female voice said.

"Oh, come on! Why the hell are you here?! What does God have against me?" Ben groaned as he facepalmed.

"You bitch! I'm going to tear your fucking guts out!" Andrew yelled in comical anger, his Gundam flailing its arms like a child.

"Oh, you're blaming the wrong person." Ben's crazy stalker said before Andrew ducks under a red beam.

"Hi guys!" A male voice said as a Gundam flew in.

This Gundam had the appearance of the Cherudim but colored black with red eyes and a black cloak while it emitted black GN Particles.

"Who the fuck's this nutcase?" Andrew asked. "Your crazy little manwhore?"

"No… that would be Greg, Greg Sallow." Jarod said in annoyance.

"You have a history?" Alex asked as the black mobile suit waved.

"You can say that." Jarod muttered.

Andrew gave the black Cherudim an unimpressed stare. "He just looks like a brat."

"The body of a young man with the mentality of Caboose." Jarod clarified.

"Oh, so a retard." The Lucifer pilot realized.

"Basically." Jarod groaned.

"I must say you are all surprising." A familiar voice said as Darth Oculus arrived via the Vengeance.

Scoffing, Chris turned his attention to the new arrival. "So the Imperial jackass himself crawled out of his hole to die, huh?"

"Oh we'll see. Take them." Oculus said before Greg fires on the Lucifer, who dodges before the Banshee Siren charges at the Wing Origin.

"You are mine." Oculus said as he drew a beam saber and charged at both Ben and Arturia.

"I seem to be getting popular lately. What's wrong? You didn't get your daily asskissing from your servants?" Ben joked as the Pegasus activated its beam tonfas and blocked the Vengeance's own while Arturia's Delta Plus fired its beam rifle at the Sith Gundam.

"Actually I'm having a good day after ripping the Dark Boots out of that girl." Oculus said with a grin as the Vengeance dodged and swung his beam saber at the Delta Plus.

"Really? I had no idea because your day's gonna get bad once I rip you out of your tin can's cockpit and squeeze you to a bloody pulp." Ben responded with a dark grin, using the Pegasus's built in I-Field to counter the beam saber.

"We'll see." Oculus said as he fired a beam at the Pegasus before sending out four GN Fangs.

"Hah! You'll find that this new Gundam isn't just for show!" Ben stated as he engaged the NT-D with the Pegasus reaching out with its hand, releasing a Psychowave that affected the GN Fangs. Turning its hand, the Pegasus directed the floating weapons at the Vengeance and clenched its fist. "Payback's a bitch, dickhead."

"Oh, I believe not." Oculus said before a dark red aura bursts from the Vengeance and causes Ben to grab his head in pain.

"Son of a bitch! What did you do!?" The silver-haired boy growled.

"A little trick for your mobile suit." Oculus answered before the Fangs faced the Pegasus and Delta Plus before opening fire on both mobile suits.

Both MSs quickly used their boosters to avoid the particle beams while returning fire with their own weapons. Ben using the maximum setting of his Beam Magnum to hit the Vengeance while Arturia fired precise beams at the GN Fangs.

The fangs exploded one by one until the last fang became a small fireball before the rifle in the Delta Plus's hand was destroyed when the barrel was sliced off.

"Need to move fast, girly." Oculus said before the Vengeance kicked the Delta Plus in the torso and sent it crashing into the Pegasus.

"My thoughts exactly, jackass." Ben growled, his Gundam afterimages towards the Vengeance, landing a kick to its head then flips in mid air and sent a crashing knee to the torso.

"Bastard!" Oculus growled before firing a beam at the Pegasus.

The Delta Plus appears in front of the Gundam, using its shield to block the beam. "Too slow, cur." Arturia taunted as she fired her unit's Head Vulcans at the Vengeance's head, damaging its main camera.

"Have a nice flight!" Ben exclaimed, dropkicking Oculus's Gundam while maintaining his balance.

"That ship is making it difficult to maintain air superiority." Alex said.

"Leave that to me!" Andrew declared, batting away Greg's Gundam with a GN Buster Sword then boosts towards the Super Star Destroyer.

As Andrew flew, he didn't see the GN Fang as it blasted the Lucifer in the back.

He gritted his teeth at the impact, sending a wayward glare at his assailant but didn't deter from his current mission. "Like that will stop me!" He growled, pushing the throttle to the limit.

The Lucifer continued its charge at the super star destroyer only for a metal foot to slam into the Lucifer's chest.

Growling, Andrew punched his assailant's metallic face. "I didn't want to have to use this until necessary but I've had enough of you fucking pissants so now I'm just gonna kill every last one of you!" He declared, pressing a switch. "Lucifer System, activate!"

The Lucifer's eyes flashed, transforming into a blazing orange color as the facemask slid apart to reveal a glowing yellow mouth while orange trace lines began to appear along the Gundam's frame. Twelve pairs of glowing devilish wings appeared on its back as the transformed Lucifer released a bestial roar, a halo of fire appearing above its head that sent a shockwave around it.

In the cockpit, Andrew gritted his sharpened teeth in pain, his eyes glowing a blood red, and his hair becoming more wild. He grinned like a madman as orange threads connected to his back, giving him full control of the Lucifer's main systems. "There it is!" He exclaimed as his Gundam boosted towards the Executor-class at a much faster rate.

"Ben, Arturia! Watch out!" Alex shouted as the Vengeance flew up behind both the Pegasus and the Delta Plus.

The two mobile suits turn around to face the Vengeance and it shot two cords that punched through the mobile suits' cockpits.

"What the?!" Arturia shouted as she saw the cord until the tip produced two needles before stabbing into Arturia's neck and the same happened with Ben before a purple liquid was pushing into them and caused both to scream in agonizing pain.

Chris noticed this and his eyes narrowed in utter fury. "BASTARD!" He roared, slicing the Siren's sword arm, grabbed it by the head and slammed it into the dirt as he boosted towards the Vengeance. A set of GN Claws appearing on its hands as it cuts the cords then grabs the Sith MS, slicing the escape pod off from its back. "I'M GONNA KILL YOU!" Then kicked the Vengeance's head clean off.

"That's a shame." Oculus said before the Vengeance flew back before its cockpit opens to reveal that it was empty.

"I am not here. I am in Belka right now and I'm throwing away that Gundam." Oculus said as the Vengeance closes its cockpit and drew a beam saber before charging the Wing Origin.

"Chris, this is Dexter, we have arrived and are deploying units to engage the enemy." Dexter said.

Narrowing his eyes, Chris turned off his radio, not even bothering to respond, as he casually avoided the attack and cuts off the Mobile Doll's arm off then plowed its arm into its back, ripping out the cockpit. "Run a scan on the transmission, trace its origins." He spoke to his Gundam.

The Zero System within his MS took only a few seconds before finding the target point at Belka, near a civilian complex that was oddly familiar.

Chris gritted his teeth. "That son of a bitch!" He growled as the Wing Origin transformed into Neo Bird Mode and flew towards the marker.

"Ben, are you alright?" John asked as he and a GN-XIII flew over as a strange symbol appeared on the base of Ben's neck.

"Fine, why do you ask?" The silver-haired boy questioned.

"We saw what happened and Chris is running off." John answered.

"He probably has a good reason for it." Ben stated as he used a mirror to check his body then noticed the mark on his neck. "Where's Andrew?"

"Attacking the Super Star Destroyer." John answered.

"Sir, something's wrong with Pendragon." Said the GN-XIII pilot as it held the motionless Delta Plus.

"Ben, what happened?" Alex asked as he flew up.

"That jackass, Oculus, injected us with… something…" Ben collapsed on his seat, the Pegasus falling from the sky and crashing onto the ground.

"Ben!" John shouted as he flew down and landed next to the Pegasus.

"Are you alright?" John asked.

"It hurts…" The boy groaned, holding his neck as it began to glow.

"Hold on, we'll get a medic!" John said before changing channels.

"No!" Ben exclaimed as the Pegasus began to stand up albeit shakingly. "I don't need any help."

"Then what about Arturia? She's unconscious and is in danger." Alex said as the GN-XIII landed with the Delta Plus shut down.

"I said I don't need help!" Ben shouted fiercely, his eyes shifting from sapphire to violet for a brief second. "And take your hands off her, mongrel!" He told the GN-XIII pilot.

"Ben, calm down!" John shouted as he got between the Pegasus and the two mobile suits.

"Move!" The Pegasus punched Alex's Gundam out of the way then kicked the GN-XIII away from the Delta Plus. The white MS gently picked the deactivated suit in a bridal carry and flew off.

"Ben!" John shouted.

"Let him go. Something is wrong here." Alex said as the GN-XIII got back on its feet.

Soon explosions can be heard and everyone turned to see the Executor-class super star destroyer beginning to fall with multiple smaller explosions popping up before it crashes into the ocean.

"Andrew, how are you doing?" Alex asked.

His answer was a bestial growl as the Lucifer tore through MS and starfighters. Its target, the super star destroyer, was within its sights. The Gundam lands on the hull and tears his way through, his intention to gut the ship from the inside.

"I'll take that as 'Doing fine'." John muttered.

"Andrew, be careful!" Kallen shouted from her location as she took off in her Gundam.

The Lucifer entered the ship, crippling system after system as it began to claw its way towards the main engine.

"Just… a little more, Lucifer… we can make it…" Andrew panted, the aftereffects of using the Lucifer System beginning to wear him down.

Imperial soldiers used every weapon they could to take down the Gundam but were either batted away or shredded to pieces from the Lucifer's Vulcan Guns. Eventually, the transformed MS arrived at the Executor's main engine.

"This is it…" Andrew gritted his teeth while blood dripped down his nose and from the corners of his eyes. He smashed a glass panel then pulled the red lever hidden inside. "Well, Lucifer, we had a good run… Let's take these assholes with us…" He grinned then closed his eyes, accepting his fate.

The Lucifer's eyes dimmed while the wings on its back wrapped around the Mobile Suit then in a bright flash, exploded; destroying the Executor from the inside out.

"ANDREW!" Alex, John, and Josh shouted.

"No!" Kallen gasps in horror.

"This is Ghost Eye to all units… The Sword of Destiny… is dead… We've lost one." Ghost eye said with regret.

Orbit

"No!" Jacob uttered while Lenalee covered her mouth in horror.

"Those sons of bitches!" Braydin shouted as he slams a fist through a metal wall.

"Send all units down and wipe the empire from the face of the Galaxy!" Dexter growled as he clenched his fists so tightly that his nails were cutting into his hands.

Belka

"So here he comes." Oculus said as he stood in his throne room along with General Grievous.

"The Swords are now down to only Justice, War, Determination, Freedom, Knowledge, Vengeance, and Courage. Soon they will fall and the Galaxy will be ours for the taking!" Grievous said.

"Yes but for now… be ready for our guest." Oculus said with an evil smile.

Wing Origin

The Wing Origin flew towards its target marker until finally it reached its destination with the whole place looking like a mountain made of metal with spikes sticking out.

"Chris, listen we drove the empire off but we need to stick together. Strength in numbers so we're coming to you." Dexter said over the radio but he got silence.

The Wing Origin raised its rifle, charging the beam then fired, blasting open an entrance for its pilot. The Gundam lands as Chris descends to the ground, clad in his uniform but with Blood Dragoon in his right hand.

The Sword of Freedom enters the complex, intent on finding Oculus and removing his head. "Now where are you, Imperial trash." He muttered to himself.

A door opens and reveals a dark hallway before small lights lit a trail.

Chris walks into the hall and the door closes behind him before the lights shut off then the entire chamber becomes lit up and what Chris saw was capsules containing people and some of them looked to be DEMON super soldiers.

"I see you found the location of my super soldiers." Oculus said as he walked onto a platform above him.

"And I see you've finally stopped skulking in the shadows like a coward." Chris grinned. "Must be your period."

"The joker you are. But I wonder… have you heard the fate of… Andrew Alder?" Oculus asked.

The young man's eyes narrowed. "What is that supposed to mean? What happened to my brother?!" He demanded.

"Oh… Guess you didn't hear this." Oculus said before pressing several buttons and then he hears Ghost Eye saying, "This is Ghost Eye to all units… The Sword of Destiny… is dead… We've lost one."

Chris's eyes widened. "It can't be…" Then they narrowed in unbridled rage as he tightened his knuckles until they were practically chalk white. "I'll kill you!" He roared, lunging at Oculus.

When Chris was close, he swung but Oculus vanished and Chris felt feet kicking him in the back and send him crashing to the ground below.

"I'm done holding back, Chris Alder!" Oculus growled as he floated with a pair of glowing red transparent wings.

"Now I'll show you my true power! Balance Break!" Soon Oculus was enveloped in black light as a deep voice said, "Apocalypse Dragon Balance Breaker!"

When the light died down it revealed Oculus wearing draconic armor that looked like Dexter's Scale Mail but pitch black with red jewels and glowing red lenses.

Growling, Chris stood up. "Then I guess the feeling is mutual, Oculus." He cracked his knuckles. "Come to my aid! Balance Break!" Soon the Sword of Freedom was enveloped in the familiar crimson red draconic armor with green jewels. "Boosted Gear: Scale Mail!"

The Breaker Blade materializes in Chris's hand as he hefts the weapon with both hands. "It ends here, Oculus! Prepare to die!"

"We shall see." Oculus said as he produced two spears made of red light.

Outside

The 1.5 Gundam lands just outside of where Chris flew and exits his Gundam and enters his Balance Breaker.

"I hope we're not too late." Dexter muttered as he flew down the hall.

DEMON chamber

Both Oculus and Chris clash blades and tried to push one another back.

"You are skilled Alder but not strong enough." Oculus said before kicking Chris back.

"But you haven't seen my new tricks." Chris grinned then pressed the release to eject all the swords within the Breaker Blade only they began to float. "Have a taste of my Blade Storm!" He commanded the swords to charge towards Oculus.

"Hmm. I'm not impressed." Oculus said before holding out his left hand.

"Destroy!" A deep menacing voice came from the wings before the blades shattered into pieces.

Chris could only gape in disbelief. "Oh, that's just not fucking fair!" He shouted, resummoning his blades then sent them right back at the Sith.

"Destroy!" And the blades were shattered once again.

"This is the power I possess." Oculus said before the wall behind him explodes.

"OCULUS!" A familiar voice shouted before Dexter in his Balance Breaker flew in and sucker punched Oculus and sent him through several tubes.

"Chris, you alright?" Dexter asked.

"Stay out of this!" The Sword shouted. "He's mine!" Then lunged at Oculus, delivering a flying kick that struck the Sith's face.

Oculus flew and crashed into the wall before falling down and landing on his hands and knees.

"Guess he's found his place. On his knees." Dexter said as he pats Chris on the shoulder.

"You… haven't beaten me yet." Oculus said as pieces of his armor fell off.

"Shut up." Chris sneered, kicking Oculus down on the ground. "I've had enough of hearing your damn mouth. So do me a favor and just die already." He reared his arm back, ready to pierce the leader of the Empire's heart.

"Destroy!" Soon Chris's armor shatters before Oculus shot a beam at Chris's chest, sending him flying.

"All too easy." Oculus said as he stood back up.

"Chris! You son of a bitch!" Dexter shouted as he flew at Oculus.

The Sword of Freedom meanwhile, coughs up a mouthful of blood as he looks down to see that the beam had fully pierced his chest, right at the heart. "Come on, you damn dragon… Heal me!" He gritted his teeth as he removed himself from the wall, barely able to stand.

"Chris, that power feels familiar." Said Ddraig until Dexter crashed into the wall next to Chris.

"Is that all you have?" Oculus asked.

"Chris get him!" Dexter shouted with part of his helmet removed to show part of his face.

"Divide, divide, divide!" Albion called.

"What?!" Oculus shouted as he felt weaker by the second.

"Die!" Chris roared, the Boosted Gear appearing on his left arm which uses to pierce the Sith's chest.

The Sith coughs up blood as his armor shatters and to their surprise his face revealed to be an older Dexter but with sickly pale skin, veins around his eyes, and yellow eyes.

"So you think you win?" Oculus asked with an evil smile.

"You're the one bleeding, bitch!" Chris growled.

"Not for long." Oculus said with an evil smile.

"GAH!" Dexter cried out as he was stabbed by four lightsabers.

"Grievous!" Chris exclaimed.

"Hahaha!" Grievous laughed as he ripped his lightsabers out of Dexter's back, allowing him to fall to the ground with his Scale Mail off.

"Containment failure. All subjects are to be released from capsules." Said a male voice before the capsules begin to drain.

"N-not today!" Dexter said, coughing up blood as he held up a trigger before pressing down and the explosions can be heard.

"Warning! Structural integrity compromised. Self destruct in ten minutes." Said the mechanical voice.

"Huh?" Grievous said in surprise.

"Chris, you need to go." Dexter said before coughing up more blood.

"The hell I do!" Chris yelled, summoning more of his blades then directed them at Oculus and Grievous as he hoisted Dexter onto his shoulders, sprinting out of the facility.

"Chris, just leave me. I've caused you all nothing but grief." Dexter said.

"Stop talking like that! Just because you were acting like an asshole doesn't mean that we don't care about you!" Chris shouted. "Besides, Kallen would be devastated if you died and I'm not letting my pupil wallow in despair!"

"Guess not." Dexter muttered as his eyes became heavy when they reached the Gundams.

After situating Dexter in the 1.5 Gundam, Chris was about to go in his before realizing that Oculus was still inside. "Autopilot engage, return the 1.5 to the allied forces." He ordered, running back into the compound to finish both Oculus and Grievous.

"Structural integrity failing. Self destruct in five minutes." Said a voice before the structure began to violently shake.

A few explosions happened around Chris as he covered his face. "Come out, Oculus! We're finishing this here and now!" He roared.

"I believe not today." Oculus said as a holographic screen appears to show him in what looked like a capsule.

"I am now on board one of our newest toys and once launched the Swords of Heaven ends today." Oculus said before he begins to cough violently.

Growling, Chris roared in anger. "I will hunt you down, Oculus, and when I do, I'll tear your head goddamn head off!"

"I would be more worried about where I was if I were you." Oculus said before he begins coughing violently.

"Self destruct in three minutes." Said a mechanical voice.

"Which will be enough time for you to go." A familiar voice said behind Chris as an armored hand lands on his shoulder.

Chris looks back and what he saw was Jacob in all of his cybernetic glory with Lenalee next to him wearing a pilot suit.

"What are you two doing here! You should be back at the base!" Chris shouted.

"Something just rose from behind this base and besides, we were behind Dexter when he came for you." Jacob said as the building shook.

"Then get moving! Oculus is about to play his endgame." Chris ordered.

"Alright, let's go!" Jacob said before he and Lenalee run off.

"Sorry about this." The Sword of Freedom whispers before striking the back of their necks, effectively knocking them out. He carried the two outside and sets them under their Gundams while he called for the G-Exes.

The white MS lands in front of Chris while he boards the unit. "G-Exes, commencing final mission." He muttered, taking off into the sky.

"Come on, Oculus, let's see what you got!" Chris growled.

Soon the G-Exes got in sight of the target and saw what looked like the Eclipse but it didn't have the bottom tower and it had more guns on it than a battleship.

"You want to get me, Alder. Come on in. I'm not afraid." Oculus said inviting Chris in.

The G-Exes flew towards the Eclipse and landed inside.

"You assume that killing me will bring you satisfaction?" Oculus asked.

"In all honesty, yes, it would." Chris stated, exiting from his MS.

"So you would forsake everyone just to kill me? You truly are becoming more Sith every second." Oculus said with a cough.

"Keep talking, jackass. You're only making your death all the more painful." The Sword stated, strolling down the hallways towards Oculus.

"What about your brothers? They are falling one by one. And what of your sister? She worries about you. Would you throw her away too?" Oculus asked.

"Who said I was? I'm just going to kill you. Besides, haven't you learn? I may be a Jedi but I don't follow all of its rules. You could say that I'm embracing both the Light and the Dark so I hope you've said your prayers to whatever God you believe in because you die here and now." Chris replied.

"I sense only a small bit of light in you. You are embracing the dark side. Soon you will become what you hate." Oculus said.

"He is correct." A new voice said as Darth Mundus walked out of a doorway in front of Chris.

"So what? Whether I become a beast or not doesn't matter as long as I tear your beating hearts out." The Sword stated. "So go ahead and talk all you want because I'm going to kill you all, damn the Jedi ways and damn the Sith. You've pushed me past the limit, I've given into my fears for too long so I'm going to embrace it."

"So you embrace the darkness within you? Good then that means your light will vanish once… she is gone." Mundus said with an evil smile.

"Threatening my wife will not deter me and you misunderstand me, when embracing your fears they transform into courage. So spout your bullshit about light and darkness all you can because I'll still be me, not some worthless coward who acts like a pale imitation to the real thing." Chris taunted.

"I believe that it is you who is an imitation of the real thing." Mundus said as he took off his helmet to reveal an older version of Chris.

Chris blinked. "Meh, not really surprised. If there's a copy of Dex then there is bound to be one of me."

"Actually, you would be a copy of me." Mundus said before summoning a draconic gauntlet but this one was different because it was more demonic and colored a dark blue with yellow jewels embedded in it.

"Yeah, keep telling yourself that, crazy." Chris deadpanned, summoning his own Boosted Gear.

Mundus lunged at Chris and threw a left hook but Chris caught it but had no time to react before he was kicked in the stomach, causing him to bend over before he was met with a powerful uppercut that sent him flying up before Mundus flew up and drop kicked Chris down into the ground.

Spitting a bit of blood out, Chris wiped his lip. "That all you got?" He questioned, cartwheeling up then punching Mundus across the face.

"Not even close." Mundus replied as he cracked his knuckles.

"You sure?" Chris asked with a grin as he snapped his fingers then blades materialized around Mundus and pierced his body.

Mundus soon fades away revealing that he was an after image.

"Oh, I'm sure." Mundus said behind Chris before sending Chris flying with a punch to the back of his head.

Flipping in mid air, Chris kicks off the wall and sends his knee into Mundus's gut then performs a backflip kick right into the evil copy's chin.

"Not bad." Mundus said as he wiped blood from the corner of his mouth.

Energy built up in Chris's gauntlet. "Then how about some of this? Dragon Shot!" He roared, firing a blast of crimson energy at Mundus.

"Guess I'll respond in kind." Mundus said as energy built up in his gauntlet.

"Dragon Shot!" Mundus shouted as he send his own beam at Chris and they collide in the center.

The two opposing energies pushed against the other before exploding, sending both fighters skidding back on their feet.

"This ends here, Mundus!" Chris growled, electricity coursing in his left hand.

"We shall see." Mundus said as he summons his Balance Breaker which looked almost like Chris's but unlike his, it possessed demonic dragon wings and the eyes were purple.

"Any last words?" Mundus asked.

"Yeah, do you ever shut up?" Chris questioned, summoning his own Balance Breaker.

"I believe you'll understand." Mundus said before he lunged at Chris.

"Yeah, right." Chris scoffed, kicking Mundus across his face.

Mundus vanishes and appears next to Chris and kicks Chris in the face before grabbing him by the leg and slamming him into the ground, making a small crater.

Pushing up on his hands, Chris launches a kick to Mundus's gut then grabbed him by the neck and threw him against a wall.

"Your strong." Mundus muttered as he launched a Dragon Shot at Chris.

"I've trained everyday for this moment just I could squeeze the life out from your eyes." Chris stated, avoiding the attack then used his Geass to materialize a pair of handguns and fired.

Mundus dodged the bullets before he fired another dragon shot.

Chris flipped into the air, firing a hailstorm of bullets down at Mundus.

Mundus brought his arms up and the bullet struck his armor with some of the bullets pinging off.

"Is that all you have?" Mundus asked.

His answer came in the form of Chris smashing his fist down on Mundus's head.

"Guess not." Mundus muttered as he looked up to see Chris send a spear right at him.

Mundus dodged the spear and allows it to fly past before he reached and grabs it out of the air before throwing it back at Chris.

The Sword of Freedom uses the tail-like appendage on his helmet to knock the spear away then sent the bladed tip towards Mundus's heart.

"Not going to be that easy boy." Mundus said as he takes the spear out of the air and shatters it.

Soon doors open and DEMONs ran in and some of them had arms replaced with guns and accelerator cannons.

"Heh, those weaklings? They're not even fit to be small fry." Chris grinned ferally before unleashing more of his blades to cut down the DEMONs.

"They are when they are mere sacrifices. You should remember that DEMONs explode after death and I'm large groups, the explosion grows." Mundus said as the blades cut through the DEMONs.

"Mundus, it is time we left. The energy from the Dark Boots has been implanted. It is time to test it." Oculus said from a communicator.

"Right. Well, Chris, I would stay and watch you die but I have other arrangements that must be met." Mundus said before vanishing with a static boom.

One by one the DEMONs were all cut down until they were all dead and Chris sees that he was stuck in a blocked room.

"Chris, can you hear me?" Dexter asked followed by coughing.

"Yeah, but I'm stuck in a room full of DEMONs that are going to explode."

"Chris, there's no other sign of life… That thing is a distraction." Dexter coughed before something smashed into the room.

"What the hell?!" Chris shouted as what looked like a Gundam's head can be seen.

"Sword of Freedom. It's time we left. The Sith just left this system and left behind these weapons of mass destruction." Said the pilot in a familiar voice.

"Chris, we need to be ready. Those things are heading for the capitals of every nation around Strangereal." Said another familiar voice as a mobile armor flew by.

"Then go! I'm not done here yet!" Chris shouted only to stop in his tracks when a Mandalorian appears in front of him.

"Sorry, Chris, but we need you more than your bloodlust does." The Mandalorian said before shooting Chris with a stun round which struck him in the chest and he fell down like a puppet with its strings cut.

Gracemeria

Everyone was looking around trying to get the city back up and running while soldiers went through the remains of the Super Star Destroyer in hopes that Andrew was still alive but so far no such luck.

"Incoming Mobile Suit. 1.5 Gundam, Throne Zeta, and one extra." An automated voice said as the three mobile suits flew in and landed.

"Get medical teams here on the double!" Shouted Rex as the cockpit of the 1.5 opens to reveal a wounded Dexter.

"Did you find Saber and Excalibur?" Bly asked.

"Yes sir, he's on the outskirts of where the combat zone was and hasn't moved from their location." Said a Clone trooper in phase one armor.

"I require four containment units. Ben is acting strangely and he could attack us for no reason." John said as he flew off with four GN-XIII armed with what looked like projectors.

"Still no sign of them?" Alex asked.

"Chris needs to be here now. It's important." Jarod said as he wrapped bandages on his right arm which was wounded from shrapnel after his Gundam lost its left arm.

"Incoming contacts, two Gundams and one Mobile Armor." Said a clone trooper.

"Identification of one Gundam as the Wing Origin." Said a Federation trooper as Dexter was rushed off to get medical attention.

The Wing Origin lands first followed by the second Gundam which looked like a custom Altron Gundam EW version while the mobile armor transformed into a custom Savior Gundam.

The cockpits open up and Chris was the first to climb out with a Mandalorian coming out of both custom Gundams before Chris stormed towards the Mandalorian who piloted the Altron type Gundam.

"Get off of me!" Chris shouted as he punched the Mandalorian in his face. "You damn fool! How dare you get in my way!"

The Mandalorian spun around, punching Chris in the face followed by kneeing him in the stomach and finished it with an uppercut, causing Chris to stagger back.

"Chris, that place was a big trap!" The Mandalorian shouted as he ripped his helmet off to show to everyone, including Chris's surprise a very much alive Braydin Nilsson.

"Braydin." Alex muttered.

"Yes, I know it is a surprise but we were on a Mandalorian island and we stayed to help fight off the Empire and Britannia." Braydin said.

"Wait, we?" Josh said in surprise.

"Hey guys!" Aiden said after taking his helmet off.

"And when were you going to tell us this?!" Josh growled.

"We wanted to tell you so many times but we couldn't get a proper communications channel and the race and staton weren't good places to talk at the time." Aiden said.

"But at least we saved Alyssa." Braydin said as an LAAT/i flew down and opened up its sides to reveal Alyssa and several Clone troopers plus Wolffe.

"Alright I know all of this is surprising is all but Chris there is something very important that you need to know." Josh said as he walked over to Chris.

"Hold that thought." Chris stopped John before punching Braydin across the temple. "If you ever shoot me again, I'm going to kill you myself!"

"I deserved that." Braydin muttered as he stood up while rubbing his temple.

"Look you have more important things than a simple vendetta." Josh said grabbing Chris by the shoulder.

Chris glared at Josh. "Don't you ever touch me."

"Sorry!" Josh said as he jumped back with his hands up.

"Josh, what is the problem that's so important?" Jacob asked after he regained consciousness but not before giving Chris a glare for knocking him and Lenalee out.

"It's about his wife." Josh said.

The Sword of Freedom grasped Josh by the collar of his shirt. "What about my wife?!" He growled.

"She's in labor!" Josh said as he tried to get out of Chris's grasp.

"Oh…" Chris blinked, releasing Josh. "Well, why the hell didn't you say so in the first place?"

"Are you kidding? I couldn't call you for some reason, you were punching Braydin, and there's the fact you're scary when angry." Josh answered.

"Hey, isn't that shuttle going to the hospital?" Alex asked, pointing to the Nu-class shuttle that Dexter was being loaded on.

"Obviously." Chris shook his head before his expression turned serious. "Now, explain to me what happened to my brothers."

"We don't know a thing. He just flew off with Arturia before we could do anything and he has become overly aggressive so a team is going over to request him to go to the hospital." Alex answered.

"Pull them back. They'll only wind up dead." Chris responded, checking his TACPAD.

"John, pull back, Chris is here and thinks he might know what to do." Alex said into his communicator.

"Roger that, we are four hundred meters away from his position and pulling away now." John said.

"Now how about we get going?" Josh asked.

"Going where?" Lenalee asked.

"To my wife, I have a baby coming." The Sword of Freedom stated.

"Jump onto the shuttle and get there quickly or run!" Dexter called from the shuttle as it rose but it's ramp was still down.

"Shut up, jackass!" Chris shouted before using his Geass to spawn a speeder bike.

"Offer a ride and get shot down. I expected nothing less from you, Chris." Dexter said with a small smile.

"Well he does have issues with his anger." Josh muttered.

"I heard that." Chris shouted before his speeder took off.

"You were meant too!" Josh shouted back.

"Guys! Cerina, baby, NOW!" Lenalee shouted before climbing onto the Striking Duel's hand as it took off.

"We better hurry!" Braydin said as he, Josh, Jarod, Alyssa, Aiden, and Alex climbed onto an LAAT/i.

"John go to the hospital at once and inform everyone of our clone commanders." Alex said into his communicator as the gunship took off.

"Roger that." John said.

"Chris, are you able to contact Ben? I'm sure he wouldn't want to miss this." Alex said into his communicator.

"Here's the response." Chris pressed a button on his TACPAD.

"I'll kill you if you come near me!" Ben's voice shouted into everyone's ears sans Chris.

"Evident enough for you?" The Sword of Freedom questioned mockingly.

"Uh, do you think you can… help him?" John asked in a fearful tone.

"No, I'm not helping him. I have no use for an infected pilot." Chris replied coldly.

"Well I think we know someone who could and he might have info on his very ship." Dexter said before he starts coughing.

"Mind your own damn business." Chris stated. "Worry about your soldiers and I'll worry about mine."

"Who the fuck do you think is the leader of the Swords of Heaven? And don't you dare consider your brother your subordinate." Dexter growled before shutting the link.

"Hey Kallen, how is Dexter?" John asked.

"He's okay but they had to use four sedatives just to make him tired and five more to sedate him." Kallen answered with a concerned tone.

"Well after what they did, I don't know what happened." Jacob said.

"Let the bastard sleep it off." Chris stated while thinking. 'Dirty traitorous Sith.'

Hospital

"Paging Doctor Newton to the ER, Doctor Newton to the ER."

"Oh boy." Jacob muttered as he and the other Swords of Heaven minus Kallen and Chris stood outside a room as screams could be heard.

"I feel sorry for Chris's hand." Alex muttered as the glass around them crack.

Another crack, this one sounding like bones breaking, was heard. "Oh, sweet God in heaven make it stop!" Chris shouted in obvious pain.

"Still in there?" Dexter asked as he was sitting in a wheelchair with his upper body covered in Basra patches and Kallen was pushing the chair.

"Yeah and this better be worth it, for Chris's sake." Jacob said as he sat next to Lenalee who was laying her head on his shoulder while he ran his hand through her hair as another crack is heard.

"I heard that, you bastard!" Chris yelled.

"Do you want your bones to continue to be broken?!" Jacob shouted.

"How about I break your neck!" Another crack. "Ow, my thumb!"

"How about you both shut the hell up!" Cerina shouted in pain.

"Alright." Chris muttered, a bit taken aback by his wife's outburst.

"Sometimes women are the most dangerous creatures out there." Dexter muttered before he felt Kallen wrap her arms around his shoulders.

"And don't you forget it." Kallen said with a smirk followed by Cerina's screaming getting louder.

"Deep breaths, love. Deep breaths." Chris tried to calm the woman down.

"Don't tell me what to do, Chris Alder!" Cerina shouted which causes the glass to crack.

"Okay, I am scared now." Josh said with a fearful expression.

"Okay in there General?" Rex asked.

"Oh, I'm great, Rex." Chris sarcastically replied. "Except for the fact I won't be able to use my bloody hand!"

"Which hand?" Jarod asked only for Dexter to slam a cane into his head.

"Both of them, idiot!" The Sword of Freedom cried out.

Soon more cracks are heard following a much louder scream and the glass shatters.

"There goes my wrists…" Chris groaned in agonizing pain.

"Just one more push, ma'am!" Shouted a doctor.

Cerina responded with a very loud scream that cracks the visors of everyone having a helmet and a second later a different type of screaming can be heard.

"Oh God, my arms!" Chris yelled.

"Is it over?" Jarod asked as he pulled his hands from his ears.

"Congratulations, sir." Said the doctor as the smaller screaming slowly died down.

"Thank you… Give me a second." Chris told the doctor before violent snaps and cracks were heard from bones realigning back into place. "Ah, much better."

Kallen walked to the door and knocks on the wood part of what remains of the door before it opens to reveal Chris, who was moving his right arm.

"So, what's the news?" Kallen asked as Lenalee stood up and walked forward.

"Is it a boy or a girl? Tell us?" Lenalee asked with a joy filled smile.

"Well, why don't you come say hello to him first." Chris grinned in amusement, stepping aside to allow the others to come in. Soft cries could be heard from within the room.

"Hey Chris, Euphemia is bringing your kids, she should be here-Oh, never mind." John said as Euphemia arrived with Aura, Kurona, and Yuki.

"Sorry we're late, we were caught in traffic." Euphie said with a kind tone as she hands Yuki over to Chris.

"It's fine. I don't really mind." The Sword stated as his daughter cooed at him. "Come along, Yuki. It's time to meet your baby brother."

They all walk in and they see a tired Cerina lying in bed with a newborn boy in hand.

The baby was wrapped in a blue blanket but had Chris's black hair and Cerina's eyes with specks of crimson running along the iris.

"I'm so proud of you!" Lenalee said as she hugs Chris.

"Congratulations, man." Jacob said as he pats Chris on the shoulder while John playfully punched him in his other shoulder.

"I'm holding a baby here, you idiots!" Chris scolded the three.

"I'm sorry." Lenalee said with a sad expression as John and Jacob held their hands up in surrender.

Sighing, Chris shook his head. "Well, no harm no foul, I guess. Just be more careful."

"So what are you going to name him?" Dexter asked with a smile.

"Ren." Chris answered. "Ren Ayanami Alder."

"Not a bad choice, Chris." Dexter said with a smile.

"Father, can we hold him?" Kurona asked timidly.

Chris grinned. "Sure, my little ones." He replied to his two daughters.

Both Aura and Kurona walk over as Cerina gently hands Ren over to Kurona, who gently took him into her arms and looked at him with a bright smile.

"You two will give that boy a nice family." Dexter said with a sad smile before he feels Kallen's hand on his shoulder as he holds her hand before he looks at her and both smile.

"That makes no bloody sense." Chris deadpanned. "You're saying it like I'm adopting him."

"Sorry. I'm still under the effects of the sedatives." Dexter said as he rubs his eyes with Kallen nodding her head.

"Ah, makes sense you'd still sound like a drunken fool. Can't fault you for that." Chris nodded in acceptance before handing Yuki over to Cerina. "Okay, girls, let me at least hold my son."

"Okay father." Aura and Kurona said at once as Kurona holds Ren out for Chris.

The Sword of Freedom takes his child into his arms and looks down at the sleeping infant. "Hello, kiddo. I'm your dad." He whispered, gently rubbing Ren's head with his index finger.

"Chris, you really have a nice family." Dexter said with a smile as he looked at Chris and his family while Ren was holding his arms out to Chris.

"Anyone wanna hold him?" Chris asked his comrades, ignoring Dexter's comment.

"Can I?" Lenalee asked with a smile along with sparkles in her eyes.

"Uh, sure, just be gentle with him." Chris answered, slowly handing Ren over to Lenalee.

"Hi Ren." Lenalee whispered as she took Ren into her arms with a kind smile.

"She's jealous." Jacob whispered.

"Then start giving her a kid." Chris whispered back.

"Do I deserve to… tell me, Chris. What am I? A man or a freak?" Jacob silently asked as everyone was focused on Ren as Lenalee hands him to Alyssa, who gently took him.

"That depends on your outlook on life." Chris answered. "What do you think of it?"

"I think she deserves someone better than me. I was in a coma for three months and when I woke up my body was given cybernetic enhancements because of my near death experience. I was away from Lenalee for so long I am not sure anymore. You are flesh and blood but me… I have metal. How can I ever have a happy family like you do. You deserve this life but me… I don't know…" Jacob said with sadness.

"I won't lie and say I don't pity you. I'm still a bit pissed off at you for what you did back then. Your little reckless action forcing me into exile." Chris stated. "There was a time where I absolutely loathed all of you for doing such things to me but I've learned that everybody lies and keeps secrets. That's just human nature. Despite you being a cyborg now, you're still human. If you feel pain as well as emotions then you're human and you'll live on with the consequences of your actions from past, present, and future until your dying days. So stop all this self-loathing and man the fuck up or else I'll beat that resolution into your tin-plated skull."

"You're right… thanks." Jacob said as he walked towards Lenalee as Alyssa hands Ren to Jarod.

"Just know this, if you want to really make her happy…" Chris leaned to whisper in Jacob's ear. "Give her a baby."

Jacob blushed and looked to Lenalee who turns to face them with a confused look on her face.

"Let's first deal with Jarod." Dexter said as he points to Jarod making funny faces and Ren laughing.

"Wait for it." Chris held up a finger then Jarod cries out in pain when Ren hits him in the eye, laughing while he does so.

"So who do you plan to be the godparents?" Kallen asked as Braydin gently took Ren out of Jarod's hands.

"Don't know quite yet, it's still up for debate." Chris shrugged.

"Well hopefully you don't pick Jarod." Jacob muttered as Braydin hands Ren over to Aiden.

Chris looked at Jacob with an almost hauntingly serious expression. "I will never let that madman come anywhere near my family unless he values his own life."

"At least he's trying to control himself." Alex said as Aiden hands Ren over to Euphie, who gives Ren a polite smile while John stood next to her with his own smile.

"Well those two are a nice couple." Dexter said with a smile.

"You finally noticed? You're getting sloppy." Chris teased.

"I was off with the Union, I didn't even know about them until I regained my memories." Dexter deadpanned.

"Though I wonder how long it will be until they do the deed." Kallen whispered.

"I'm wondering why you two haven't done it already." Chris muttered, glancing at Dexter and Kallen.

Both blush and Kallen stuttered. "W-what are you talking about?! We don't have time for something like that!"

"Me and Cerina made time. So don't give me that foolish excuse." Chris deadpanned.

"Ow!" John grunts in pain as Ren pulls his hair while Euphie giggled.

"Chris, please not at a time like this?" Dexter asked in embarrassment as his face was red.

"Fine, but we all die young some day so it's better to live it while we can. Just ask my brother, Andrew." Chris stated.

"Sir!" A clone trooper said as he ran into the room but stopped next to Chris and whispered. "We found the Lucifer's wreckage but can't find the body. It is possible that he's alive or they took the body."

Space

A Lambda-class shuttle flew through space away from Strangereal.

"So you managed to gain the body?" Oculus asked as he lied on a stasis bed.

"Yes sir, the Federation were searching but because of our forces still around they had no time to locate the body." Said a Commando Droid as Andrew's corpse or what remained floated in a stasis field.

"When we reach the rendezvous point we shall begin Operation: Reborn Dark." Oculus said with an evil smile as the shuttle entered hyperspace.

Hospital

"You want to hold him Kallen?" Euphie asked as she held Ren.

"Sure." Kallen said as she gently took Ren into her arms.

The baby cooed as he reached up to grasp a lock of Kallen's hair.

Kallen giggles then smiled while Dexter gave Chris a smile and said, "Chris, you managed to shine a light on what we are fighting for. Tomorrow I want everyone in the briefing room, Sith, Jedi, Clones, Strangereal, any and all officers." Dexter said as he rolled off.

"Sir, there is also something we need to tell you. We found some kind of serum in the remains of the Vengeance. We are looking at it right now, sir." A Clone trooper whispered to Chris.

"Good, I want the results in my office soon." The Sword of Freedom whispered back. "And keep an eye on the Sith, I don't trust them as far as I can throw them."

"Don't worry, sir. Clone Assassins are shadowing them as we speak." The Clone trooper whispered before walking out.

"Oh, you're so cute!" Kallen cooed with a bright smile as the baby played with her hair.

"Hey Chris, be sure that your son doesn't become a lady killer." John said with a grin.

"Knowing Chris's genes he will." Jacob said with a smile as Euphie, Lenalee, and Kallen were around the baby.

"Even as a baby, he's a ladies man. I'd hate to see what happens if you have a daughter. I can only guess the threats." Jarod whispered.

"Oh, believe me, if any boy tries to charm my sweet little girls." Chris sported a wicked grin as a scary aura surrounded his form. "Then I'll personally castrate them and send them on a one way trip straight to hell!" He declared with a tightened fist.

"Great, now I fear for what Dexter will do when Rin and Aoko get boyfriends." Jacob muttered.

"Well, that'll just be him. I could care less what he does to other people." Chris stated.

"Unless one of them started dating Ren then we would worry." Jarod muttered but like some unforeseen force, Dexter blasted through the door on his feet.

"What did I hear about my girls dating?!" Dexter growled with a fire in his eyes.

"Yeah, I was afraid l that." Jarod muttered with a fearful look.

"Something about them wanting to start dating my little boy here." Chris remarked before leveling a deadly glare at Dexter. "Is there something wrong with that?"

"Maybe there is." Dexter growled.

"Not even regaining his memories three weeks after adopting Rin and Aoko as his daughters and already he's being an overprotective parent." Jacob muttered as everyone but Chris sweatdrop.

"That's Dexter for yah." Jarod muttered.

"Sir, we have something to inform you of." A clone trooper whispered to Chris as Dexter was being calmed down by Kallen.

Chris leveled one last glare at Dexter then glanced at the clone. "Speak." He whispered.

"Sir, it seems that the serum is some kind of enhancement formula but it doesn't only enhance the user's abilities but it makes them more aggressive and from what we can tell will likely cause large amounts of damage. We are working on a way to try and remove the aggression and the likelihood it returning but we aren't experts in the field." The trooper whispered unaware that Jacob and Lenalee were listening in.

"Maybe I can help. I know some friends who we rescued from the Citadel that were forced to create the serum so we might find a way to fix it." Jacob whispered to them with Lenalee next to him.

"See to it at once. I've already lost one brother to this madman and I will not lose another." Chris whispered back before he noticed Kallen about to hand Ren over to Dexter. "Hold it!" He shouted, gently taking his son back.

"What?" Kallen asked curiously.

"Nothing, I just wanted to hold my boy again." Chris smiled, the others unaware that it was fake to hide his true feelings. "Besides, I'm sure Dex wouldn't want to burden himself with extra weight on his body."

Dexter looked at Chris and nodded his head, feeling saddened because he could actually sense Chris's true intentions as did every other force user.

"Hey Alyssa, how are you doing anyway?" Dexter asked trying to forget his sadness.

"I'm okay. Nothing a shower can't fix." Alyssa said with a small smile.

"Come on, Dexter, we need to look after Aoko." Kallen said as she dragged Dexter out of the room.

"Alright, what's up?" Jarod asked as he gave Chris a suspicious look.

"That's none of your business, you sociopath." Chris glared. "If you want to question and make a big deal out of this then you better be prepared for my answer."

Everyone just looked at each other unsure before they just left it at that.

"Just don't be harsh on Dexter." Jacob said before walking off with Lenalee.

"He's already suffering from nightmares and the hate. Tell me you're not sensing it, Dexter knows something that he isn't telling us." John said as he looked at the retreating forms of Dexter and Kallen.

"I know, I've always felt his fears, his hate, his despair, but…" Chris glanced at the couple with a serious expression, one that signified as a deadly change. "He was still a Sith that caused much pain for us. There's always the chance he will be provoked, controlled, or even succumb to the temptations of power. As such, I don't trust him and I never will unless proven otherwise."

"We all have darkness inside ourselves. It's how we deal with it that justifies who we are." Jacob said while Alex looked at them and said, "I'd rather be sure or else we'll be in trouble before you can say-where's Jarod?"

"I don't think that's how that expression goes." John muttered.

"No, I mean where the heck is Jarod." Alex clarified, causing everyone to look and see that Jarod was gone.

"When did he leave?" John asked as he blinked owlishly.

"That idiot always seems to leave when we never notice." Chris sighed as he rocked his son to sleep.

Orion Federation lab

"Dammit!" Growled a Federation scientist.

"Another failure. Why can't we get it!" A human scientist growled.

"No idea, this thing is so complexed." Muttered another scientist.

"We've gone through this seventeen times and all of them failures." Growled a woman in a US Naval uniform.

"Make that eighteen." Said a clone as the liquid on his instrument turned to mist.

"Damn!" They all growled as Jarod walked in.

"Is everything alright?" Jarod asked, getting their attention.

"No sir. The serum keeps vaporizing itself when we try and we're running out of serum." Answered the clone.

"Hmm." Jarod said before he walked over to a coat rack and pulled off a lab coat which he puts on before he walked over to different test tubes filled with liquid and walked over to another test tube which had purple liquid.

"Sir?" A clone said in confusion.

"Working." Jarod said as he began his work… doing whatever it was.

"Better inform the Generals." A clone trooper in phase II armor with red accents said to a clone trooper in phase I armor with blue accents who nods his head and runs off.

Hospital

"Okay, so your wife and son are healthy enough to go but I'd suggest she takes it slow." Said a doctor to Chris and Cerina, who was holding a sleeping Ren.

"Chris, how about I treat you and your family to dinner?" Jacob asked with a smile.

"As long as you're paying for all of it then alright." Chris answered.

"Don't worry, I'll pay." Jacob said with a smile before a clone trooper walked in.

"Uh sir, we found General Jarod Walker." Said the trooper.

"Where is he?" John asked.

"He's in the lab." Answered the clone trooper.

"Why is he in the lab?" Jacob asked.

"You will want to see for yourself." The trooper said.

The trooper guided the Swords through the halls until they reached the science wing and when they open the door they see Jarod working on the serum.

"What the hell is he doing?" John asked.

"We don't know, sir. He just walked in then started doing this." Said the trooper.

"Hmm," Chris approached the crazy boy. "Oi! Jarod, what the hell you doing?"

"Working." Jarod answered before he grabbed a vial of blue liquid and poured it into another vial of green liquid which glowed blue.

"Have you come up with anything?" Dexter asked the scientists as he removes the bandages to show that he was healed.

"No sir, we haven't come up with anything yet." Answered a clone scientist.

Jarod poured a vial of glowing blue and green liquid into a vial of purple liquid.

"Ha!" Jarod shouted after the liquid turns a glowing blue.

"Do I even wanna know?" Chris deadpanned.

"I think I just found a cure." Jarod said, holding the vial.

"Seriously?" Jacob asked.

"Seriously. All you need is for the serum to touch the skin but it needs a large dose. But there is also one problem you will have to worry about. Ben and Arturia attacking you." Jarod said.

"Well, now that doesn't sound so hard." John muttered humorously.

"There is another problem. I had to use serums we had and only those exposed can get it onto them.

"Well who are they?" Dexter asked and his responses was everyone looking at him and Alyssa.

"Why is everyone looking at us like that?" Dexter asked.

Combat zone

"Jarod, when I get back, I'm beating the shit out of you." Dexter growled as he flew in the 00 Epyon while Alyssa flew in the repaired Zen Master Gundam.

"Hey, at least you're contributing." Jarod said as he and the others stood in a control room with soldiers around them on terminals.

"And why is Alyssa here?" Dexter asked.

"We detected some bits of the serum in her system but it seems to be dormant so in case she turns at any moment and you will be able to get the serum to her… and also I don't think Cerina will like it if Chris goes out there and gets hurt… so none of us will want to die so soon." Jarod answered.

"Dude I'm serious, when I get back, your ass is going to hell." Dexter muttered as the two Gundams flew towards the two mobile suits.

"I don't really see what the problem is. It's basically a win-win situation for us." Chris stated. "If you turn now then we'll stop you, probably without killing you."

"That's only a win-win for you since I will likely get my ass beat by your brother and his girlfriend." Dexter deadpanned.

"And if Alyssa gets hurt then I'll shoot Jarod in the ass!" Braydin growled.

"Don't worry, your girlfriend will be fine." Jarod said.

"She's/He's not my girlfriend/boyfriend!" Both Braydin and Alyssa shout in sync with their faces a bright red.

"That proved it." Kallen whispered to Lenalee who had a small smile.

"They're so in denial." Chris remarked.

"Well, so are Alex and Cecile." Jarod said with a grin.

"What?!" Alex shouted.

"Oh come on dude, it's quite obvious." Jacob said with a grin.

"Yeah, why else would you take her with us?" Chris teased with a sly grin.

"She was using an advanced Knightmare, we couldn't have Britannia use that as a test bed for their Sutherlands and Gloucesters!" Alex said with a light blush on his face.

"A likely excuse, lover boy." Chris taunted.

"Hey guys, you may want to look at this." Dexter said over the radio, getting everyone's attention to look at the screen to see a dark purple cloud of energy.

"The hell is that supposed to be?" The Sword of Freedom wondered in bewilderment.

"Do you think the sword, Excalibur is being corrupted by the toxin inside them?" John asked.

"It is possible. We are going to have to see and find out." Jarod said as the two Gundams stopped outside the cloud.

"Okay, here goes. Chris, if I die, I want you to do me a solid. Gibbs slap Jarod so hard it sends him across the country and stab him with my lightsabers." Dexter said.

"Dude!" Jarod shouted.

Chris gave Dexter a thumbs up. "Sure." He responded in boredom. "Just die so I can do that."

"If we die then that would mean Ben and Saber are under Sith control. Better hope that doesn't happen." Jarod muttered as he quickly pressed several keys.

"Alright, here goes." Dexter said before the 00 Epyon transformed into MA mode and flew in with the Zen Master following soon after.

The trip was difficult because the purple clouds released strong winds that it felt like they were flying through a storm.

"I can't see anything in these clouds!" Alyssa shouted as she squints her eyes since her monitors were covered in what looked like static.

"Just go forward for ten minutes. You will be able to get into the eye of the storm afterwards but we'll have trouble maintaining contact." Jarod said.

"Visual or audio?" Dexter asked.

"Audio. We should be able to see just fine." Jarod said.

"Hey Chris, do you want us to tell Ben that he's an uncle? That might help a bit right?" Alyssa asked.

"Unlikely. He'll probably calm down once you're nothing but mush. You could always knock him out." The Sword of Freedom suggested.

"And hopefully he won't be pissed that he gave us no choice." Jarod muttered, causing everyone to glare at him. "I just jinxed them, didn't I?"

"You're dead, Jarod!" Dexter growled but when he said that they hear nothing but static.

"They're too deep. I can't regain communications." Jarod said as he leans back in his chair.

"Meaning it's all on them now." Chris stated, crossing his arms.

"Yeah… I feel bad for you, Jarod." Jacob said.

"What, why?" Jarod asked.

"Well if they survive you will have to deal with an angry Dexter, Alyssa, and Braydin but if they don't survive then you will have to worry about Chris keeping Dexter's promise and a still angry Braydin." Jacob answered.

"In which case, I'll kill you." Chris stated. "Then I'll kill Ben and Arturia should they go out of control."

"Then let's pray that they don't fail." Jacob muttered.

Storm

"GAH! I can't see anything!" Alyssa growled.

"Just keep going. We'll make it through." Dexter growled as the cockpit shook.

Ten minutes later they flew out of the storm to see that the entire environment was purple and the ground along with the trees, creatures, and buildings were whittling away.

"I see them." Alyssa said as she saw a pillar of purple light and in the light was the Pegasus and Delta Plus.

"Let's go." Dexter said as they flew towards the two mobile suits.

The Pegasus was the first to notice them. The hidden eyes behind the visor flashed a malevolent violet as it raised its beam magnum at the two Gundams.

"Whoa, Ben, wait, we have something that can help you and Arturia!" Alyssa shouted.

The pilot didn't listen. "Die." Then the Pegasus fired.

"Shit!" Dexter shouted as he and Alyssa dodged the high powered beam.

"I'll draw his fire!" Dexter said before firing two beams at the Pegasus but it blocked the beams and fired its beam magnum at the 00 Epyon but Dexter was able to dodge the beam before flying away with Ben's focus on him.

Before Alyssa could react, the Delta Plus football tackled her Gundam to the ground. An evil purple glow coming from its eyes.

"Shit!" Alyssa growled before using both of the Zen Master's feet to kick the Delta Plus off her.

The transformable MS landed on all fours like a wild animal then stood back up as a dark aura encased its body. "Die." The pilot muttered before pulling out two beam sabers and charged at the Zen Master.

"Oh my god!" Alyssa cried before flying up and forming two beam cloths which she wrapped around the Zen Master's forearms and hands which she used to block the two beam sabers.

Control room

"Damn!" Braydin growled as he slammed a fist into the wall as they watched the fight.

"Calm yourself. Just watch." Chris stated calmly.

"Those two are in trouble! We should have gone with them!" Braydin growled.

Chris slapped Braydin across the face. "Listen, as you are now, you'd only get in the way. So shut up and have faith that your girlfriend will pull through this fight."

"She's not my girlfriend!" Braydin growled.

"Can we talk about this later!" Jarod shouted, getting their attention to see the Zen Master kick the Delta Plus in the back and sent it crashing to the ground.

"Very well, I had enough of dealing with idiots for today." Chris stated, focusing back on the battle as the Delta Plus performed a handstand, wrapped its legs around the Zen Master's head, and slammed it face first to the ground.

Battle

"Damn!" Dexter growled as he dodged another beam before he flew at a safe distance.

"Guys, get a hold of yourself!" Alyssa shouted as she blocked several strikes before slamming a beam cloth enclosed first into the Delta Plus's left arms elbow, severing the arm.

The mobile suit's eyes flash in anger before swinging its beam saber but thankfully Alyssa jumped back and only got a small gash on her Gundam.

"Damn!" Alyssa growled as a slot in her Gundam's shoulder opens on top of the Gundams left shoulder before a hilt pops out and Alyssa grabs it out of the air and ignites a pink blade.

"I really need to thank Jarod for the upgrade." Alyssa muttered with a grin as she clashed her beam saber with the Delta Plus's remaining beam saber.

With Dexter and Ben, the 00 Epyon was dodging the high powered beams from the Pegasus's beam magnum.

"I need to get rid of those weapons!" Dexter growled before transforming the 00 Epyon into MS mode and fired a beam from his beam rifle.

The beam struck the beam magnum right down the barrel, causing the Pegasus to let go of the weapon and raise its shield to block the resulting explosion.

"Sorry!" Dexter shouted as he flew at a safe distance.

The response was a hail of bullets from the Pegasus's head Vulcan guns.

The 00 Epyon raised his shield and blocked the bullets that would have struck him before he was forced to fly away in order to avoid a charging Pegasus.

"Shit!" Dexter shouted as he drew his beam sword and blocked the Pegasus's beam saber.

"Damn, she's strong!" Alyssa growled as she was pushed back by Arturia's Delta Plus.

The raging MS headbutted the Zen Master then knees it in the stomach.

"Damn!" Alyssa growled before she punched the Delta Plus in the face and sliced open the cockpit, revealing Arturia but her appearance was changing.

Her skin had begun to turn a pale color while her eyes were beginning to change into a sickly yellow. A feral look on her face as she growled at Alyssa then punched her Gundam across its faceplate.

"Damn!" Alyssa growled as her Gundam shook before she retaliated by kicking the Delta Plus in the torso, shaking the mobile suit.

Arturia snarled then leapt out of her machine, Excalibur in her hands as she raised it high. "EX-" She started as a golden light began to build up in the blade. "CALIBUR!" She roared.

"Shit!" Alyssa shouted as she the beam of light flew at the Zen Master, only for the Gundam to be charged into, sending it out of the way.

"Damn!" Alyssa growled before she saw that her saviour was the 00 Epyon.

"Now!" Dexter shouted as the 00 Epyon snatched Arturia out of the air.

Alyssa nods her head and grabs a vial and opened her Gundams hatch, allowing her to step out as the draconic Gundam held the struggling King of Knights in front of the Zen Master where Alyssa pops the cork and splashed the serum into Arturia's face with some of it entering her mouth.

Arturia swallows it before she freezes as her eyes go wide and turn back to a jade green with her pale skin regaining its former color.

"Damn!" Dexter shouted as he flew back with Alyssa jumping back into her Gundam, allowing it to fall and dodge bullets fired by the Pegasus.

The Pegasus engaged its NT-D, the Psycho Frame glowing an evil purple as well. It activated its beam tonfas while pulling out the beam sabers on its back, igniting all four blades.

"Ben, stop!" Dexter shouted as the Pegasus charged at the 00 Epyon.

The Pegasus swung its beam sabers but the 00 Epyon blocked the attack with his beam sword and heat rod before the Zen Master came in and sent the Pegasus flying with a Char Kick.

The white Gundam quickly recovered by dashing back at them, lashing out with a fierce kick towards the Zen Master's head, a boot knife shooting out as the blade smashed into the faceplate.

"AH!" Alyssa screams in pain as the system her Gundam had made her feel pain.

"Stop!" Dexter shouted as he came and used the Epyon claws to slice open the cockpit to reveal Ben.

His once pristine silver hair had turned a dark grey and his eyes were a malevolent violet as well. The cold fury behind them was enough to send a chill down Dexter's spine.

In a fit of rage, the Pegasus grasped the head of the 00 Epyon then plunged a beam saber into its right hip. Not stopping there, the corrupted MS savagely ripped the draconic Gundam's head right off.

"Stop it!" Alyssa shouted as she jumped out of her Gundam and landed onto the Pegasus's open cockpit and held a needle before plunging it into the base of his neck then injected the cure.

Ben's response was to materialize his own Excalibur… then stabbed Alyssa in the chest.

Alyssa gasps in pain and looks down to see the sword stabbing her in the chest before looking Ben in the eyes as his eyes gained some clarity.

The boy's hair returned to its silver color and his eyes were blue once more. "Alyssa?" Ben wondered, blinking in confusion.

Alyssa soon pukes up some blood and a few drops landed on Ben's face causing him to widen his eyes.

"Alyssa!" He shouted as his sword returned back to his pocket dimension as he reached out to the girl until she fell back.

"Alyssa!" Dexter shouted as Alyssa fell but Ben used the Pegasus to catch her.

Control room

"NO!" Braydin shouted in horror.

"Shit! Get medics ready!" Alex ordered.

"This is your fault!" Braydin shouted as he drew Zangetsu and swung at both Jarod and Chris but John catches the blade with Crescent Rose while Jacob used Bankai to restrain the Mandalorian.

Chris didn't even bat an eyelash at the enraged man. "I don't see why you would blame me, fool." He stated as he placed his hand on Zangetsu. "After all…" With a flick of his wrist, he snapped the blade of Braydin's weapon right off. "Bounty hunters don't trust anybody so your childish attitude is only insulting your pathetic Mandalorian honor."

"I wasn't after you! You were just in the way! I wanted his head!" Braydin growled, pointing to Jarod.

"And we're not bounty hunters you bastard! Mandalorians are warriors who fight with each other. Just because we're Mandalorians and you categorize us with bounty hunters is the kind of thing that separates you from others." Said a Mandalorian.

"Hmph, sounds like Death Watch to me." Chris scoffed. "Are you trying to convince me or yourselves? The way I see it, you're all just people who'll die eventually and if you don't believe me…" He materialized a blaster and pointed it at the Mandalorian who spoke then pulled the trigger only for a clicking sound to be heard. "Then you're quite lucky I consider your lying ass an ally." Then he casually tossed the empty blaster into a garbage.

"Are you even listening to yourself at how much of a jackass you're being Chris?" Braydin said as he glared fully on Chris, he stepped right towards him, their noises almost touching. "We don't just fight for glory and honor! We have goals willing die for. We have family, we have clan, we have homes to defend. We don't have words for heroes because of we are expected to ready die for our family and friends."

Braydin and Chris glared at each other, everyone within room could just feel the threatening auras coming off them. "I don't know what's going on with you Chris but you better start figuring out whose side you're on. You were once someone I consider as my ner vod one time, a brother. Now, you have lost that right." Chris may not shown it on surface, but that did struck him hard inside.

"You have family to protect Chris. With so much anger you're showing everyone, to you're allies, to you're friends! What, you gonna direct your anger to them too?" Chris's eyes widen at this, it slowly started come towards about the way he was acting. While he was damn angry that Braydin would dare say he would lay finger on his family, he couldn't but see light on Braydin's words.

Braydin scowled at Chris. "Am father now to Chris. I got two kids I will die for. We all stressed out with whole deal yes, but we must not allow ourselves become clouded by this. Eventually, you will need learn better control you're feelings or else it's gonna cause you something you're regret." He turn from Chris and walked out of room, the Mandalorian glaring all while at Chris followed Braydin

"Uh guys. I'm picking up something strange." Jarod said from his terminal.

"What? You mean sudden death creeping up on you?" Braydin asked with a dangerous aura.

"No, it's in the combat zone!" Jarod said in alarm.

Unknown location

"Alright, engage." Said a male voice.

"Yes sir." Said another voice as he pressed a button and on a terminal it revealed a human body with a female psychic before a purple glow began shining.

Combat zone

"Ben, are you okay?" Dexter asked as he flew up with Arturia gently in the 00 Epyon's hand which held out for Ben.

The silver-haired boy glared at Dexter. "Do I look okay!?" He snarled.

"Guess not but at least you and Saber are back to normal." Dexter said.

Ben looked down at the injured Alyssa. "Almost normal…"

"Guys, we're reading something strange." Jarod said through their comm.

"It's heading your way! Stay alert!" Chris intervened.

The three turn to see what looked like a Fury-class Interceptor along with two Jedi Defender-class Corvettes.

"Sir, we're being contacted by the incoming ships. Should I allow them to communicate?" Asked a Clone trooper.

"Do it. I know who the pilot of the Fury is." Dexter said.

"This is Darth Algolis to Swords of Heaven, do you read? You're all in great danger!" The Sith said in an alarmed tone.

"Affirmative, this is the Sword of Freedom, responding. What is this great danger?" Chris questioned on the com-link.

"We intercepted Imperial transmissions and the Sword of Skill is infected with dormant DEMON blood and its being released right now!" Said the Sith.

A second later Alyssa screams in pain, drawing everyone's attention as her eyes open and glow a complete crimson red, the wound on her chest healed instantly, her nails became sharp as knives, and bat wings sprout from her back, tearing off the fabric.

"Well… shit." Chris, Dexter, and Ben cursed at the same time.

Alyssa grabs the hand that she was lying on… and tears the entire limb off to the elbow before using it as a bat to send the Pegasus flying.

"Okay, what the fuck?!" Dexter shouted as he flew back only to watch as Alyssa entered the damaged Zen Master.

"That is some seriously strong steroid!" Chris exclaimed with his eyes comically bugged out.

Suddenly the cockpit glows a dark purple before the Gundam's eyes flash purple with the wings turning more bat like and the face repairing itself before morphing with the mouthpiece popping open to reveal a set of human-like teeth with fangs.

"I'll say it again, what the fuck?!" Dexter shouted before the Zen Master charged at him and he transformed into MA mode after putting Saber into his units cockpit and flew off with the transformed Zen Master after him.

"Guys, you need to get out of there!" Jarod said in alarm.

"Screw that!" Ben shouted as the Pegasus began to stand.

"Guys, that energy that Ben and Arturia created is doing something strange and we need you here fast. It has something to do with those ships that just took off." Jacob said.

As the Zen Master was chasing the 00 Epyon, it stops and looks to the distance before releasing a beastly roar and flew off at blinding speed.

"Did she just run?" Dexter said in confusion as the 00 Epyon returned to MS mode.

"No… She's being called." Chris realized.

"Well I guess we got lucky. Any more and Saber would have gotten hurt." Dexter said as he released a sigh of relief after the Epyon landed on the ground.

"Fool, don't you get it? Alyssa possesses DEMON blood meaning her 'master' is calling her!" Chris growled. "Whoever activated her is on the planet, right now!"

"I know that but at the moment we need to worry about Saber cause she's running a fever over here!" Dexter shouted, getting Ben's attention.

"What!?" Ben exclaimed as he quickly took his beloved from Dexter and checked on her.

"Ben, take her to the hospital quick. I have a booster pack to help you there." Dexter said as the Epyon took off a pack from its back and strapped it onto the Pegasus's.

Ben quickly activated the extra boosters given to him then took off into the sky.

"Another fuck up after the other, I'm starting to believe the universe is trying to piss me off." Chris responded in an irritated voice.

"Didn't the universe give you a son?" Jarod asked as he was focused on something on a terminal.

"No, my wife gave a son." Chris replied in a sarcastic manner. "Wherever we go, whatever we do, the Sith always seem to be one step ahead of us. Are there spies? Am I being lied to again? This is what's pissing me off because I have no idea what the fuck is going to happen in the future!" His voice rising into a shout with every word.

"Hey, Chris, since the Sith arrived you and the others have been getting more aggressive far too quickly from what you guys naturally are. Have you noticed that?" Jarod asked, still focused on his terminal.

Chris leveled a glare at Jarod. "Shut up and do your job. I'm tired of these pointless questions. All I want, is Oculus and Mundus's fucking heads on pikes!" He hissed.

"Uh, I am doing my job." Jarod answered.

"What are you looking… at… well fuck, that explains why I have been getting more and more angry." John said with a surprised look after see what Jarod was looking at.

"What are you even…" Jacob trailed as he and Lenalee saw what they were looking at.

"That explains so much. If I wasn't part machine I would be trying to control my anger." Jacob muttered as he looked at his hand.

"That makes sense." Lenalee whispered.

"That explains everyone's emotional control issues." Alex said.

"Well it seems our answers have been found." Jarod said as he pinched the bridge of his nose.

"Guys, we should go to the hospital." Kallen said, getting their attention.

Hospital

Ben was sitting next to a sleeping Arturia, who was lying in a hospital bed with a cold wet hand towel on her forehead as her face was a light red from her fever.

"Ben, is she okay?" Lenalee asked in concern as she entered the room.

"She's burning with a fever. I don't know what to do for her, the doctors don't even know what it is that's afflicting her…" Ben looked down and clenched his fist. "Damn that, Sith bastard!" He growled. "When I get my hands on him, I'll tear his beating heart from his chest."

"This is bad." Jarod said as he held a scanner in front of both Arturia and Ben.

"Jarod, get that out of his face and tell us what the hell is so bad?" Dexter demanded as he and the others entered the room.

"Alright you know how Ben became so aggressive from the serum that he attacked friend and foe alike?" Jarod asked.

"Yeah?" Alex answered.

"And you know how we all have been getting more aggressive ever since we fought Darth Mundus, Oculus, and their allies?" Jarod asked again.

"Just get to the damn point!" Ben growled.

"It's this." Jarod said as he took out a capsule and crushed it, releasing a white smoke which covered the entire room before it turned purple around everyone.

"Is this supposed to be some kind of prank?" Alex demanded as he wiped the stuff off his armor.

"What the hell is this, Jarod?" Chris questioned.

"This… is the airborne strain of the serum that Ben, Alyssa, and Saber were exposed to." Jarod answered.

"Jarod, have you been hitting the coffee again?" Dexter asked as he pinched the bridge of his nose.

"Wish I could say yes but no. The airborne strain is slowly transforming us. We didn't notice it until now because the changes are unnoticeable. By now everyone here and off world is exposed and is slowly turning." Jarod said causing Cerina to look down at her sleeping son in concern.

"That explains everything we've been doing. Chris's attack on Dexter on Coruscant, our increased aggression to our comrades. That's perfect, have the enemy focus all their attention on them while the serum is slowly destroying us." Alex theorized.

"Tell me how widespread this is." Jacob said as he stepped forward.

"From the data… it's galaxy wide." Jarod answered causing everyone to freeze.

"But we can stop it right?" John asked.

"We can. We still have a few vials of the cure here and if we insert the cure before destroying the enemy ships then we can spread the cure across the galaxy. It will look like a energy wave and may feel like you will be flying through a storm so be ready for when that happens." Jarod explained.

"This better work for all our sakes. Especially the future generation." Dexter said as he looked towards Chris's family.

"Let's go to work." Jacob said only for a groan to get their attention, causing them to look to see Arturia as she opens her eyes.

"You're not leaving me out of it." The King of Knights stated as she struggled to sit up while Ben went to her side.

"Now I really want to kill that Sith trash." Chris gritted his teeth.

"The good news is I managed to make more of the cure and you can each put it into the enemy vessels before you destroy them." Jarod said as he held a case containing twenty vials.

Unknown world

A Lambda-class shuttle flew down towards a mountain that was also a base before it flew into one of the hangers and landed.

The shuttle's ramp drops and both Darth Oculus and Darth Mundus exit the shuttle with two Sith troopers pushing the stasis field holding the remains of Andrew.

"Welcome back, sir." Said an Imperial officer.

"Get the DNA harvested and begin cloning. How soon will it take to get a fully grown teenage clone?" Darth Oculus asked.

"Should take about six months to get them to the right age but are you sure about this, sir? Do you really intend to clone an army? There are bound to be some problems in the cloning process." Said the officer.

"I know the risks. Just get it done."Darth Oculus instructed before he limps away.

"As you command, my lord." Said the officer with a nod.

Strangereal

The Zen Master flew through the air, approaching a large warship that flew above an ocean.

The Zen Master flew over and landed in one of its many hangers and it was met by a Sith Lord… Darth Nox.

"Welcome Alyssa." Nox said as the cockpit opens and Alyssa jumped out, using her wings to slowly reach the ground.

Alyssa just growled before her eyes flashed and went to their original appearance.

"What?!" Alyssa gasped.

"You must be confused. During the the battle of Zygerria our assassin shot you with a bullet containing the same serum that got into your bloodstream from just a simple graze." Nox explained.

"Why can't I move?" Alyssa asked in a fearful tone.

"The serum linked to your brain. After the Sword of Justice impales you I took that chance to infect you and turn into what you are now. During the process we also had the nano droids take control of your nervous systems so whatever we order you to do you'll do it without complaint." Nox said as he walked up to her still form before he ran a finger up and down her cheek causing Alyssa to cringe in disgust.

"But we can also make you do other than things you can't control." Nox said as his eyes trailed up and down her body since her flight suit had some damage not only from the stab but also the transformation and Alyssa's eyes widen in terror at the implication.

"But we won't because we have other things to worry about such as your friends." Nox said as he brought out a holoprojector which showed only the Gundams.

"Now get into a new flight suit. You have work to do." Nox instructed.

"Y-y-yes my L-lord." Alyssa said as her eyes turned a crimson red and she walked off.

"Let the games begin." Nox said with an evil smile.

Strangereal Arctic Ocean

A fleet of two Estovakian aircraft carriers, four frigates, two destroyers, and three cruisers sailed towards a floating vessel that looked like Bellator-class Star Destroyer but it was missing the command tower.

"Launch all planes!" The admiral ordered.

Soon the aircraft carriers began launching Estovakian Rafale M's and Super Tomcats.

The eighty fighter jets flew through the air after launch and made their way towards the Sith aerial dreadnought.

"We'll show them the Estovakian pride!" A pilot shouted as they flew.

"Wait, something's happening." Said a Rafale M pilot as the from of the ship opens.

"The front of the ship is opening!" Shouted a tomcats co-pilot.

Soon a barrel extends to reveal that the ship was flying cannon.

The barrel began glowing a black and purple as a sphere began to appear at the barrel.

"What is it doing?" Asked a pilot.

Their answer came when the sphere stopped expanding and compressed before firing a large black and purple beam that it was so strong the force of the beam caused all of the water around it to be blown away and create a trench.

"Scatter!"

"It's too late!"

He was right because they were enveloped by the beam of light and the metal of the planes bend and melt while the pilots themselves explode in a shower of blood which coated their cockpits before the planes explode.

The beam of light continued until it enveloped the entire Estovakian fleet, vaporizing every ship before the light died down to reveal not a single trace of the Estovakian fleet.

A mile away an Emmerian submarine swam and recorded the entire thing.

"We need to warn home." Said an Emmerian submariner as the barrel vanished back into the Imperial ship.
