SUMMARY OF AN AXL STORY FIRST SERIES, CONTINUATION AND EXISTPEACE

About 3 hours after the comatose, Axl confronts Lumine in his head, who wants to take over his body and continue where the Jakob Project was left off. Axl convinces Lumine it would not be good for him, for if he exposes himself, the Maverick Hunters would restrain him and delete him for good with new technologies made by the mega company Prez Corporation (Corp). Lumine follows suit, only to bug Axl for the coming days. It is learned that the same Prex Corp has completely cancelled the Jakob Project and is restoring the Moon back to its original state. In one of Axl's episodes with Lumine, Palette is harmed and he is restrained in an observatory chamber. Axl angers Lumine, and the two fight for Axl's body control in his mind. Though Axl initially loses, and Lumine wants to burst free, a mysterious energy stops the battle for good. Lumine vows to deal with Axl after going after the mysterious source.

In the coming days, Lumine suddenly acts nice to Axl, and pushes Axl to find more details about his origins when the topic came up. In the library, Axl learns more than it is known in the Maverick Hunter HQ – the Prez Corp has a long history of Reploid development, even from the days of Dr Cain's discovery of X, and this is more pronounced especially since after the Repliforce incident, where he went to own the Hunters, and has been long managing the world since the days of the Eurasia incident. In a sneaking incident, Axl and Lumine witness the Prez Corp's liason officer, Bob, talk with X and Zero about news on Axl's weird behaviour after the Jakob incident. Lumine is shocked, claiming that man to have invented him and wants to talk no more of the human. A weird hint on an old Reploid named Iris is continuously brought up by Lumine, and when Axl no longer remains patient, he breaks out of the Hunter HQ to intrude the Prez Corp grounds, raising a ruckus in the HQ. When Axl comes to, he finds himself face to face with a 45 year old human named Prez.

Prez reveals all the details of his creation – after the Final Weapon's destruction, his scrap-collecting shuttles collected the remains of the Reploid Iris, and that he used her body as a basis for Axl's design. Iris is very much alive since Axl's first activation in the grounds, and his famous scar was obtained from a scuffle involving a rusty pipe. Prez could do nothing to reclaim his prized creation, while Iris watches on and experiences Axl's battles with him in Red Alert, who were responsible for kidnapping him. Prez could only create Axl's replacement – Lumine – for him to cherish. Subsequent conversations reveal that when Prez asked Bob and Lumine to work together to develop the Federation government's request to build the Jakob Project, Bob corrupted Lumine to his service by unknown means. He had Lumine work to use Sigma in the attempt to create a solely Reploid world and that it was Bob indirectly responsible for the Maverick rebellions recently. The Maverickness in Lumine was destroyed by Iris recently who couldn't stand watching anymore in the observatory chamber. Prez then declares that he has the trio of Axl, Lumine and Iris as his Reploid children, since he never had a family. He then releases Axl back to the Hunter HQ.

Axl, Lumine and Iris make friends in his mind, and much to Axl's chagrin, X wants to learn what is going on in his body, meaning Lumine will be exposed. Zero is shocked when he finds Iris inside a restrained Axl, and when Lumine is revealed, he goes on a rampage and heads to a nearby facility in the Federation capital of Big City, which houses the Hunter HQ, and personally rebuilds a lookalike of the real Orbital Elevator back in the Pacific Ocean, to protect himself from impending deletion. It would later be revealed that this elevator is an assistant elevator of the Orbital Elevator, designed to assist the latter in transporting goods to the moon. The Federation army, X and Zero penetrate the elevator, and Lumine engages in a battle with the latter two to defend himself. Axl asks Iris to stop Lumine, but she replies saying that Axl is the closest one to the latter. Axl thus convinces Lumine to turn over a new leaf, saying he will take any punishment X might incur on Lumine for him, and the latter repents genuinely and apologizes. In a likely scenario where Prez exerts his power on the Hunters, X orders Axl to undergo a small punishment period and recognizes Lumine.

Subsequently, it is learned that Bob has fled from the Prez Corp, and that the disciplinary committee in the Hunter HQ raise an issue of falling morality and corruption amongst the Hunters. X and Zero intend to investigate this, while Axl, Lumine and Iris experience a live battle in the Big City's carnival when they were celebrating the trio's friendship. Elsewhere, X and Axl debate over whether to separate Iris and Lumine from his body, causing Lumine to rebuke and Iris as well, with Zero easily influenced by Iris' words. In the later days, in a so-called 'date' with fellow Maverick Hunter May, Axl was wound up in an embarrassing seduction by May herself. Axl successfully escapes the date. In a remarkable coincidence, the Hunter HQ reported that the source of the Hunters' falling morality was that of May herself, as she was corrupting many of the Hunters just like she tried to do the same for Axl. It appears that she has escaped from the Hunter HQ and with just about a coincidence too, for a sudden attack on Big City was launched, by none other than a Prez with a swollen face.

Axl and Lumine run to confront Prez directly in the Prez Corp grounds itself, and end up enraged and restrained. Prez seemed to have suddenly adopted the insane ideology of a world ruled by Reploids, just as Sigma and Lumine previously had. In a surprise attack by X and Zero, it was revealed that was not Prez, but it was Bob. He was the mastermind of all the Maverick rebellions and even for Axl's kidnapping by Red Alert, and this was his last attempt to assert himself and gain revenge on his foes, such as by taking on Prez and framing him for this mess. Bob angrily escaped and unveils a secret machine of his in the Prez Corp grounds, even unknown of its existence to Prez, to battle X, Zero and the trio-in-one Axl. Just when Bob could be defeated and arrested for good, May shows up, revealing to be serving him and corrupting the Hunters under his direction. The group thus did battle again and Prez captures the unconscious Bob. Eventually, May is defeated and arrested. The truth was made known to the Federation government, Bob was placed in prison for his crimes, given the abundant evidence, Prez's good name is restored, Big City is built back to normalcy and May was recycled along with the many Mavericks and Reploids recently recycled, which would account for the rapid decrease in Maverick incidents in the events after the Jakob incident.

As such, it has been a month since Lumine has been in Axl, and barely a few days after his arrest, Bob was able to escape from prison into the Big City forests. Axl remains angry for a few days, such as his vicious assaults of Mavericks in a reported uprising soon. Lumine and Iris try to calm him down, but to no avail. In a strange move, Axl wishes for a human form and the ability to eat, already having the capability to allow his surroundings hear the voices of his two inhabitants. These developments have led to strange events and some instabilities witnessed inside Axl's head, which Lumine vows to investigate. Following an uprising in the nearby Megalopolis district close to the Hunter HQ, the HQ itself witnesses some energy blackouts and Axl is often called to go with Layer to the basement level for machine repairs, something he would often do over the course of a month. In a shocking development, Prez has fallen sick due to consumption of unhealthy food, and recalls a funny waiter delivering his usual food order, and says he will get better no matter what.

In yet another uprising, when the Hunters were quelling, a strange mercenary group called the PB Force emerges to assist them in destroying the Mavericks. Its commander tells X that its creator intends to cooperate with him to solve more Maverick incidences. The creator is none other than Bob, and Axl and Lumine jointly go into an emotional fit when seeing him. Zero restrains him, while X talks to Bob cautiously. Axl is though let go, and he privately laments to his inhabitants on when justice will be done. During so, Lumine takes notes of instabilities in their head again, deducing that emotional fluctuations are somewhat related to this. At the same time, X imprisons Bob in a makeshift prison in the Hunter HQ while he cautiously takes the PB Force under his wing. Prez learns about this development, asking Lumine and Iris to monitor Axl's emotions and also remarking that it would be impossible for X to take in the PB Force since they are a force considered illegal and that their creator is a criminal. In the meantime, Iris decides to cool off things by taking over Axl's body and enjoys a day in Big City. However, in a new twist, the government announced that X could take control of PB Force effective immediately, which coincides with news in the human world that some government officials were being kidnapped and an unknown perpetrator is loose.

Of course, the repentant Bob was pleased of this development, but he strangely reacts when X refuses to release him and wants to reprogram the PB Force's loyalty to that of the Maverick Hunters instead. Though relieved on part of Bob's continuing imprisonment, Axl goes into a fit on the PB Force's incorporation into the Hunters, as he, Iris, Lumine, X and Zero are the only ones in the entire enthusiastic HQ who are sceptical of the government's decision. During an argument by the trio of whether to rest or play games, the Hunter HQ undergoes another blackout, prompting Axl to join Layer in the basement, and while trying to fix it by ordering really-old-and-manufacturing-discontinued parts, a technician named Abe appears out of nowhere to restore the entire faulty generator to working order. Layer had praise for him, while Axl naturally becomes suspicious, and this causes his emotions to fluctuate again. Lumine reports this to Prez, and an analysis shows that his new abilities had put a stress on the Chameleon Chip and it is depending on him to relieve the stress by calming down. Prez coughs at the update of the PB Force, quickly going to rest.

Back at the HQ, X reveals that he knows of Axl's emotional troubles, and wishes the trio the best. Iris, who has taken control while the duo inside her practise Axl's patience training, shivers as a result of such training while some Maverick robberies were detected downtown. A clever secret cooperation between Zero and Lumine helps end such robberies, also taking out Mavericks indulged in the Reploid-world ideology as well. In the coming days, it was all peaceful, as the training to calm Axl down goes on and X getting lots of annoying calls around the world for Lumine's sudden Maverick appearance. Suddenly, another blackout appears and, having earlier told Iris about his suspicions of the technician Abe and her brushing it off again, quickly dashes to Layer's assistance. With a last-minute plan, Axl lures Abe in talking too much, and inadvertently reveals that he knows exactly what caused the blackout this time – plus evidence of the missing parts of the faulty generator in his possession. The surrounding Hunters burst with anger and contempt for the losses incurred by his blackouts. In desperation, Abe escapes in anger, revealing himself to be the last new generation Reploid around still committed to the Reploid-world ideology. Hunters celebrate Axl's wisdom, but he prefers to work to not die out of boredom for now.

In the coming days, a frenzy of crime-cleaning sweeps the Hunter HQ, aiming to get rid the place of old-thinkers and corrupt people, while Bob remains in the Hunter HQ prison, and Axl and his inhabitants hear with joy that Prez is all healed and well after what is revealed to be a deliberate attempt to poison him back at the meal he had. At the same time, they decide to celebrate Prez's so-called 49th birthday with a cake before the trio leaves the old man to a rest and Lumine takes control to deliberately scare some living humans in the street. After such a scare play, with a clueless Zero on the issue, Lumine proceeds to bring Axl back to his emotional training. While X and Zero discuss issues with a government official, it turns out that Axl has graduated from his training by making Lumine the insulting guy collapse first. By chance, at the same time, two officials came in frantically, revealing that they were the kidnapped officials who were forced by a Reploid to have the government approve the quick integration of the PB Force into the Maverick Hunters, despite all the laws of red tape. The Reploid was Abe himself and the mastermind is again Bob. Just then, Alia's report saying that Abe has surfaced to take Bob away, and his armies are attacking a big part of Big City.

Axl and co with the rest of the Hunters take out all the PB Force members by the Enigma cannon south of the Hunter HQ, took out a big ship holding lots of Bob's forces and head to the source of all the Reploids: a large abandoned prison just outside the district holding the Hunter HQ. After battling their way through the mess, they encounter Bob and one of his secret machines again. Bob comes flying in, literally honoured to have met Lumine himself. Bob reveals more of his past – he had long been planning to rule the world, stealthily growing his forces and materials over the course of 45 years, from the Repliforce days right up to the present, that after May's failure, he got to corrupt Abe to work for him, that he poisoned Prez, and created all other mayhem to greet his impending rule. Tired of the story, the Hunters did battle first, and after a long while, Bob was conveniently arrested by soldiers in a nearby chopper. Abe turns angry, unleashes his new armour and does battle with the rest.

When all was tired, Abe unleashes a suicide armour, targeting Zero to kill him off. In the midst of struggle, Iris offers herself as protection. The ensuing explosion sees the trio-in-one greatly harmed, but while Zero laments over Iris' injury, her form warps back to that of Axl, indicating that the trio are barely fine. Back at the Hunter HQ, while Axl's body is being treated, inside his mind, he awakens to find Lumine and Iris stiff and still. Unable to further hold his feelings, Axl cries out in the darkness and yells, suddenly absorbing a great deal of energy and transferring them to the duo. In the end, they awaken, and it was revealed that Axl channelled an excess of stress and energy from the Chameleon Chip into activating the duo again, and as such, his mind stabilizes back to normal. As soon as they recover, they were immediately picked up by Prez, who rushes them to a lawyer firm, explaining that he is not 49 years, but rather 75 years old, being very old, which would explain Bob's 45 year plan of revenge, and declares that Lumine is the heir of Prez Corp. Faced with the fact that their creator might pass on soon, the trio grimly accept that and allow things to be. In the coming days, all is peaceful as life goes back on, Bob is labelled a great threat to national security, and yet he escapes from prison again. They vow it is up to them to stop his future threats.

Big City restoration and construction efforts continue, while all the new generation Reploids have been dismantled and replaced with new Reploids programmed to not turn Maverick and will love peace. Lumine stirs some light ruckus for fun, as he is arrested by the police for appearing in the public, as he is still considered a Maverick. At the Hunter HQ though, X sighingly lets him go. Lumine hints to X of his status as heir, hence why he must appear in public. But, as the days go by again, news of Lumine disappears quickly as he came. On New Year's Eve, the trio proceed to go with Prez's to celebrate New Year itself, followed by Christmas. They vow to have as much fun memories as possible, together with the old man while the fireworks are played. Christmas approached, and along this nag of pain in his head, Axl decides to head off in Big City after hearing an inspired Lumine talk about Prez and himself celebrating Christmas years ago to buy gifts for the old human. He managed to find only one store open in the midst of winter where he bought three gifts for Prez, and in return be given with cash. In the coming days, Axl would experience similar pangs of pain in his head, stirring Lumine and Iris to be more cautious inside him and examine him regularly.

At the same time, due to a lack of Maverick incidents, Axl would often demand jobs to do, something other than his boring filler of Acting Commander while X or Zero would be away, Lumine started to take his appointment as Prez's heir seriously by repeatedly going about the Prez Corp grounds to refresh his management skills. Prez would on and off grumble about a rogue arrogant businessman whom he invested in; the latter claiming to be a better person than Prez. In a bizarre freak incident, as a result of the pangs of pain, Axl and Lumine end up mimicking each other inside his head, presumably due to some engineered connection, and with the help of Iris, their so-called merger is destroyed. Lumine suspects that a hidden entity is responsible and devises a plan to lure it out to destroy it. He would be busy in the coming days to engineer this program himself in Axl's head. X, Zero and the three navigators know about this and plan to assist Axl where possible. It is learned here that it is possible for a Reploid personality to hide in a body by simply going somewhere else or hiding among piles of inactive data, data responsible for the Reploid body's systems management. Axl soon finds himself employed in an attempt to get rid of his boredom in the same shop he bought the Christmas gifts to Prez. The old human owner was much obliged to have Axl around, and as such, Axl begins to linger there in his human form to avoid any suspicions. Out of interest, Lumine and Iris would occasionally take up Axl's job in the convenience store as well.

The trio learned a harsher side of Prez – if angered, he does not hesitate to take control of companies he had invested and the original owners would suffer horrible fates – as was also the case of the store's old human's children, as revealed by one of his dearest patrons, Sue, who also develops a liking for Axl in the days of his work at said store. Another pang of pain came again, but Lumine found nothing, even amongst the inactive data. With the help of Layer, whom Lumine had requested, the latter had completed a far-ranging anti-virus program, hoping it would extract the culprit out of Axl's systems. Along the course where Sue goes out with Axl a lot, Sue is frustrated that Axl correctly refuses to talk about himself to her, fearing possible dreaded consequences. One good side of this, is that it is revealed that Sue hates Lumine, believing he is a Maverick. In a formal occasion, Lumine gets his chance to show his nice side to her, and thus, Sue accepted him as he is – a good Reploid. In a sudden sneak attack, Axl and Lumine rudely find themselves almost merged in his head, and Iris once again saves the day by breaking them loose. Lumine manages to 'copy' the entire culprit when it attempted to escape, so that he could ascertain its identity.

It is learned that the culprit is a piece of active data, nicknamed White Axl, as Lumine had previously tested it on Axl, causing the latter to adopt a white armour appearance. He vows to destroy the Maverick remnant of himself, although Axl hesitates to allow Lumine to destroy it. Later, 3 months since the day Lumine entered Axl, X reveals that Prez wants all Maverick Hunters to undergo education programs so that they can still be useful to society, since there is a lack of Maverick incidences going on. Iris opts out, Lumine's participation was made compulsory, and Axl tags along, since Axl can't possibly allow Lumine out in the Hunter HQ. Axl does poorly, in contrast to Lumine's excellent performances, causing the former to nearly break down, but thanks to Iris' encouragement and Lumine's tutoring, in the coming days of this 4 year lasting program, Axl performs well on his own, though he will never hope to outdo the latter. One day when he played hooky in the store and encountered some rogue humans, Axl and gang learns that the old man is suffering from massive debt incurred by a loan shark in building the store, despite the fact that loan sharks are forbidden by law.

Axl playing hooky that day wasn't wasted, as this earns Prez's attention, and he promises to investigate, as he is able to get the police to do what he wants, and sees that the old human gets some justice. All is well, with Axl learning to juggle his time between the store job and the Hunter education program, but when Lumine installed the perfected anti-virus program in his body, the culprit was instantly detected, and the trio did battle to clamp down on the White Axl data. However, by wits, White Axl managed to overwhelm the duo and almost succeeded in controlling the body after having made Axl and Lumine as part of its mind, when Iris stopped it for good. The freed Lumine managed to lock it up in its Axl-like form in a formidable prison, and the threat was neutralized for the time being. Lumine insists on destroying White Axl, although this was opposed by Axl and Iris, as they want to know where he came from, and he relents again. Meanwhile, the police raided the loan shark's offices but not without a fight, and arrested all the lackeys except the loan shark himself, who was absent at the scene. This news made everyone, even Sue, happy for the old human.

Once again, White Axl with his extraordinary strength, since he possess codes for all of Axl's and Lumine's features, burst in a rage from his prison, nearly taking out the duo when Iris turns the electrifying battle in their favour, and Lumine creates a far more superior prison to lock White Axl inside them again, and at the same time, stripping White Axl of all his abilities. Fortunately, the prison this time is more resistant to White Axl's strength, and so peace in the body prevails again. On positive notes, Prez brought the trio to pay respects at the former's parents' graves, revealing that he was orphaned since he was 8, Iris joined in a pie eating competition out of fun, but lost to a creepy greedy human, the trio came to accept each other as Reploid siblings, and in a family trip, they went camping with Prez. During the camping trip, they clashed with a fat bloke revealed to the businessman Prez grumbled earlier about claiming to be more superior than him, and the fat bloke was repeatedly trashed by the Reploids many times. In a sudden encounter with a bear, Lumine reveals that Axl had finally tapped into his potential for powers similar to that of himself, and Axl wants to learn them.

Under Iris' mediation, Axl struck a deal with White Axl: Lumine would program a voice and a settled form of being for White Axl, since they were absent in him, and the latter would reveal his past to everyone and give them peace. In another formal event, Prez exploded when the arrogant fat bloke, revealed to be Sue's father, insulted Axl, and revealed to a crowd that the fat bloke was the loan shark tormenting the store's old man. Sue's dad was arrested in front of a large audience, and Sue's and Axl's relationship comes to an awkward situation since then. In the courts, it spelled an instant doom for Sue's dad, as his company will be taken away by Prez, and the political and commercial parties are divided over Prez's increasing world monopoly, which Lumine is bound to inherit some day. Soon, Lumine so-called 'completes' White Axl of his form and voice, and the latter still imprisoned reveals his past to the trio. Again, this goes back all the way when Lumine was working with Bob during the Jakob Project. It turns out that Bob corrupted Lumine by installing a very persuasive evil conscience inside his mind, which was White Axl, thus turning the poor white Reploid the Maverick he would be known as, designed as a tool to substantiate Bob's evil will.

White Axl was responsible for influencing Lumine to use Sigma as a means for furthering the new Reploid world creation, and also guided Lumine during his battle with X, Zero and Axl on the moon, but when he was soundly defeated, White Axl needed the two of them to live on for Bob's sake. When being transferred into Axl's body, the prototype system designed to repel the effects of Maverick data, as seen in the new generation Reploids (except that when they were corrupted by Sigma, the systems could not handle the extreme quantification of the Maverickness and the Reploids were overwhelmed beyond normal reason to become Mavericks themselves), was able to repel White Axl from Lumine's conscience and forced him to turn himself into inactive data. Of course, to ensure Lumine would carry on Bob's plan, White Axl made the Maverickness as part of Lumine's own heart, which was subsequently destroyed by Iris herself that time. White Axl was partly a personality on his own, and as such, he had an internal engine that makes him alive, just like many Reploids around. The internal engine ran out of energy, and that was when Lumine found him and tested him on Axl out of curiosity. White Axl used this chance to further copy Axl's data and complete himself as a personality, but remained as inactive data, and since the energy to keep himself running as an entity via the internal engine ran out, he fell unconscious again.

After Iris sacrificed herself in front of Abe's suicidal armour, Axl channelled the excess stress and energy not only to the unconscious Iris and Lumine, kick starting their own internal engines, but also to White Axl, and it was sufficient enough for him to being alive for long. Thus, White Axl sought to subdue everyone, except Iris for it was not in his programming to do so, and go out to search for Bob again. Whenever he escaped, he went to hide inside Axl's own inactive data for safety, but he was detected by Lumine's antivirus program because he happened to be outside Axl's inactive data. As such, since he was stripped of all of the copied abilities, White Axl is little more than a powerless entity, and he felt he is now in the trio's mercy. Such is this Maverick's story. In another development, Sue calls for Axl, where Axl finally reveals himself as a Reploid, and most of the public do not know Axl to be such, and Sue decides to break up with him, for her entire family is sent to work on the Federation mainland in a brand new life. Axl breaks down upon seeing Sue leave and heads to Prez's.

Prez reveals in a confrontation that he actually didn't want Sue and her mum to leave for personal reasons: in his younger days, when he and Bob shared a class, he admired a female classmate and in a trivial argument, their relationship was bad. Before he could apologize, this girl was killed in a freak bus accident. Prez has been sad his whole life since. The girl's older sister knew of this, and consoled him. He was to befriend this girl's older sister and her daughter for a very long time – the latter who was Sue's mum. Sue's mum knew about Prez's crush for her aunt, and has always been supportive of him since, and as such, Sue is considered a living heritage of Prez's crush. Nonetheless, Sue chose to follow her mum, who chose to discipline her husband. The irony is that Sue's paternal grandfather was responsible for the trivial argument a long time ago, and he died during the Eurasia colony crash. Prez felt like getting back at Sue's dad by sending him off to the mainland, but it never occurred to him that the reminders of his first crush would also go with him. Prez was in turn updated on everything on Axl's side, such as White Axl's imprisonment and what to do with him.

Eventually, Axl reveals his decision on White Axl – he wants him mind wiped so that he could start over as a decent Reploid. Everyone goes well with the decision, except Lumine, and during the transfer into a new generation Reploid empty shell, White Axl fights back from his mind wiping procedures, harming the trio in the process and proceeds with his mission: to find Bob and cause chaos. White Axl can never allow his mind to be wiped for that would really kill him off, and reveals he has been using Iris as a means to escape since his last successful imprisonment, and that he saved a backup of data of all of Axl's and Lumine's abilities. The white Reploid finally reveals why he wants to finish off White Axl for good instead of saving him, like what Axl and Iris wanted – White Axl himself is pure Maverick data, and can never be saved. Iris, angry for being used, decides that White Axl should be finished off. X, Zero and the trio thus commence an epic battle in many parts of Big City against White Axl to defeat him for good. However, bad luck was to come.

White Axl attempts to use Paradise Lost, causing all but Lumine to freak out, but some unknown errors prevent him from doing so. Encouraged by this, the gang hurriedly defeats the Maverick and send him limbless to the ground. Lumine explains that White Axl can never use Paradise Lost simply because his new body doesn't have enough energy to perform the move, unlike back in the moon, and that the key to using Paradise Lost is directly Lumine's personality itself. Since White Axl is not Lumine at all, it should be self-explanatory. White Axl attempts to escape by 'running away' into another part of the body, but Lumine further says that is impossible, since the Maverick is the sole occupant of his new body unlike back inside Axl and that he cannot simply switch places. White Axl curses the gang and promises that Bob will be back for revenge, and he meets his end by Lumine crushing his face. The battle of Bob's last Maverick ends, Big City is again being restored to normal, and in a press conference in the morning, X and Zero firmly declare that the white Reploid is no longer evil and clears everything by revealing the truth of what has happened – linking it all to Bob.

It is now 4 months since Axl's body registered the white Reploid in his body. Prez reveals that he is now working on a new project that is more resistant than the current second new generation Reploids to the Maverick Virus, being named by Alia as Cyber Elves, and that he fully agrees with X of an old issue – Iris and Lumine should separate from Axl and they deserve their own bodies. This rude revelation causes the trio to protest, but Prez justifies by saying he needs Lumine around with him to take over Prez Corp soon and adds that to compromise, he's giving the duo new abilities to transfer themselves between bodies – so they can be free and be inside Axl with him as well. The four of them go on a holiday on islands south of Big City to get away from all the ruckus, though in Prez's case his board strongly demanded he rest or risk the entire board's resignation. Axl has a surprise meeting with Sue, who is spending her last days in Big City, and the duo share some last moments together before she departs for the Federation mainland interior, while certainly passing by the Eurasia remnants. Axl and his inhabitants at night watch the plane fly off, and remarks that everyone will remain as an important family to him.
