Episode 2 - Old and New Encounters

In the year 2012, Extradimensional Beings from another dimension called The NOVA suddenly invaded our Earth, becoming a grave threat to all of mankind.

This was known as The 1st NOVA Clash.

In response to this invasion, a group of young women from all around the world that were known as "Pandoras" were created from the DNA of my grandmother, Maria Lancelot, The First Pandora, for the purpose of combating these extradimensional alien invaders as they risked their very lives and limb to fight them off so that mankind could live to fight another day and have hope for the future.

My older sister, Kazuha Aoi, was one of these Pandora. She sadly passed away at the end of a fierce battle with The NOVA during The 8th NOVA Clash when she was fighting to her last breath in order to defend her fellow Pandoras. As a result, she became known as The Hero of The 8th NOVA Clash and has become the role model of every Pandora for future generations.

Bounded by her last dying wish, I officially enrolled in The Academy for Extradimensional Affairs, Genetics, in order to honor my sister and to support the just cause of The Pandoras as they fight for humanity and its right to life and the future.

Who am I?

My name is Kazuya Aoi.

Spatio-Temporal Armed Forces (STARS) General of The 21st Nova Corps of The 4th Sector Army.

Limiter Cadet Leader of Platoon 13.

I, alongside my fellow Limiters and Generals, Eugene Thompson, Abel Rotomaster, Shi-Jing Hong, Citroen, Kyoichi Minase, and Louis L. Bridget have been given one single mission and task from The Temporal Powers Alliance (TPA).

To put a stop to The NOVA.

To put a stop to Chevalier.

Them and their hidden masters.

The Committee of 300.

For I, alongside my fellow Limiters and Generals, come from a dark and terrible future where The NOVA have won the war and humanity has lost.

For I, alongside my fellow Limiters and Generals, come from a dark and terrible future where The Pandoras are all but dead and extinct.

For I, alongside my fellow Limiters and Generals, come from a dark and terrible future where humanity was driven to the brink of extinction.

For I, alongside my fellow Limiters and Generals, come from a dark and terrible future where we we're the only remaining surviving humans left.

We almost suffered the same twisted fate as all of our fellow Pandoras and Limiters but we we're somehow spared from certain death as we now live to fight another day due to the appearance of one single man who came from the stars.

The Man who has made Gods, Monsters, and Demons Run when he goes to war.

The Man who fought in The Last Great Time War and single-handedly won.

The Man who fought in The Last Great Time War and led The 501st Legion, known as The Fist of The Doctor of War, and The 7th Sky Corps of The STARS.

The Man who has defended Humanity in every single corner of The Known and Unknown Multiverse throughout the countless Meta-Millennia.

The Man who was Never Cruel

The Man who was Never Cowardly.

The Man who has Never Given Up.

The Man who has Never Given In.

The Man who has The Name of The Promise.

The Man who was known as The Doctor.

This is our story.

For I, alongside my fellow Limiters and Generals, have now been given a second chance as we fight for all of humanity.

And this time, with the help of our new allies throughout The Multiverse, we will fight to our last breath to keep them all safe.

Safe from The NOVA.

Safe from Chevalier.

Them and their hidden masters.

The Committee of 300.

"Hello to you, I'm Chiffon Fairchild, the student council president."

Kazuya was completely silent for a moment as he stared happily and sadly at his then dead but now alive aunt of the past as he begins to take full note of her appearance and save it in his memory as if it were the very last time that he would see her.

In his case, it would be sadly very true.

"Is something the matter?"

"-No!"

There was only one way to describe this Certain Ride in the military VTOL.

Awkward.

It was one silent awkward ride in the military VTOL.

For both Kazuya and Eugene especially.

For the former due to the fact that he was meeting his aunt who he had never known was related too in the timeline that he came from and only knew her as the student council president when he first enrolled in West Genetics Academy and found out only to late when she died while the latter was due to the fact that he was as silent as a rock and spoke only when spoken too or when absolutely necessary as he observes the conversation in total silence.

Not that Kazuya can blame him in the slightest and thought that it was a miracle that Eugene had not broken down yet.

"Well then, let's go through things again before you're transferred."

"Yes, Ma'am."

Kazuya said resolutely and respectfully, partly because he wanted to get this past conversation over and done with and partly because out of love and respect for his aunt and his want and need to spend time with his only family in West Genetics Academy.

"In their second year, Pandora choose their partners, Limiters, from among the undergraduates."

"Why the undergraduates?"

Kazuya asked this Certain Question as he did in the past timeline but he already knew exactly why this was so and the only reason why he was asking this question was because that he wanted to spend quality time with his aunt and treasure it for as long as possible and not take it for granted just like last time.

"Because of..."

"The Ereinbar Set."

Chiffon turned towards Eugene with a surprised and astonished look on her face partly because she was somewhat interrupted and partly because her Limiter was actually talking after being silent for so long. Eugene took a remote from his pocket and turn on the television screen that was on the military VTOL which shows the picture of the human brain and the chart of The Ereinbar as he begins to explain the concept with a serious expression and a no-nonsense tone.

"A little-understood sensory organ buried much deeper than the neurons, that controls the five senses of the human body. In battle, Pandoras and Limiters share The Ereinbar, making the five senses united as one as they both synchronize. With this ability, The Limiters in question can used an ability that is called 'Freezing'." Freezing allows The Pandoras of The Limiters in question to move around freely inside a NOVA'S Freezing and temporarily lifts the NOVA'S Freezing area. This ability Freezes The NOVA'S movement as well apart from it's particle beam, blade-whips, and assimilation restraint, giving The Pandoras a limited amount of time to expose its core and destroy it effectively and efficiently. For Limiters to acquire the Freezing ability, they have to perform a "Baptism" ceremony with their partnered Pandora. When a "Baptism" is completed, an Ereinbar Set modus can be activated in between The Limiters and The Pandoras, which will grant The Limiters the ability to deploy Freezing. What most people don't know is that Freezing is in fact a very advanced form of communication method; far more effective than an Ereinbar Set, since it is done by sharing a Pandora's and a Limiters' consciences. In order to do that however, first, one needs to release an omni-directional Freezing to commence the shared communication, with the strength of one's skills directly proportional to the bond. To explain what I mean by that, try to imagine it as a fishnet that fishermen, which are The Limiters in this case, use to capture the wished target's conscience, in this case, The Pandoras. According to the scientific research that was conducted by our top scientists in Genetics, it was determined that the highest compatibility rate with The Pandoras are with males who are a lot younger than they are. Therefore, Limiters tend to be male underclassmen, usually one year younger such as yourself."

Chiffon looked at her Limiter with a sense of astonishment and amazement as he explains the concept as simple as possible while making it understandable to her nephew who was going to be a new freshman student starting as of now.

"You got all that?" Eugene asked in a tone that denotes a form of command.

"Yes sir," Kazuya nodded in respect and understanding.

"None of that sir business, kid," Eugene smirked a little as he continues, "We're both students of the same Academy, call me by my name, The names Eugene, Eugene Thompson."

Eugene reaches his right hand towards Kazuya, who in turn takes Eugene's hand as he shakes it firmly with a strong grip.

"Kazuya Aoi."

"The Kazuya Aoi," Eugene said with good humor and false surprise, "As I live and breathe, I didn't think I would go to the same school as you."

"Likewise," Kazuya smirked back as well.

Chiffon looked at her nephew and her Limiter with a sense of astonishment, confusion, and a little hurt considering that she feels as if she was being left out of a conversation that seems to denote something special between the bonds of family members.

Considering their relationship in the future, they all might as well be family at this point.

"Listen, Kazuya. Fighting The NOVA is always a dance against certain death. And yet we have no choice but to fight. For if we do not fight, humanity would be no more. This is the reason why we all attend Genetics. I really hope that you know what your getting yourself into."

Eugene said all this to Kazuya with a concerned, subtle, and reminding tone between comrades of the past and the future in memory of their mission from the past and from the future as they both knew to themselves by experience that being a Limiter would mean only one of two things.

Survive or Die.

Kazuya begins to look at Eugene with a look of assurance as he said in a serious tone while nodding resolutely, "Yeah, I do."

"This is Control. West 2-3, you are clear to land." The Control Tower said as the VTOL is now preparing for landing, "Use spot No. 1. Over."

Kazuya and Eugene both begin have serious hardened expressions when they heard The Control Tower make contact, which denotes their full attention towards what is now about to come to past.

"Roger that Control, This is West 2-3, we are maintaining cruising speed to spot No. 1." The Pilot said as he now begins the landing procedure.

Kazuya then begins to breathe in and out heavily as he knew what is about to happen next as he thought gravely, "This is it."

By the time the military VTOL made landing point, Kazuya, Eugene, and Chiffon exited the VTOL as they were greeted by two people who were waiting for them.

Ticy Phenyl and Abel Rotomaster.

"Welcome to West Genetics!," Ticy said as the wind that was produced by the VTOL was blowing on her face, "Welcome back, Eugene!, Madam President!"

"Thank you," Chiffon said in a grateful tone as she explains to her nephew, "That's Ticy Phenyl, She's one of the student council members and that boy that is next to her is Abel Rotomaster, he is Ticy's Limiter."

"Nice to meet you!" Ticy bowed out of respect.

Kazuya begins to walk towards her as he said and bowed in turn, "Nice to meet you as well," while turning to look towards Abel who gave him a nod of camarderie that was the same as Eugene when he was being fetched earlier, knowing that in the next few minutes, his meeting with A Certain Pandora was now about to take place.

In the next few seconds, just as predicted, a noise was heard around the stadium where the carnival was taking place as Kazuya and the other Limiters look towards it with a stern and resolved expression that was on their faces as they knew that now was the time for one of their plans to commence.

Kazuya, Eugene, and Abel were walking silently along with Chiffon and Ticy as they introduce Kazuya to the surroundings of his new (old) school.

Kazuya was feeling a sense of nostalgia, sadness, and deep reflection as he walked towards these walls that was in utter ruins in the dark future that he came from.

He knew that at this point in time, all of his fellow limiters were still alive and well, and he was about to meet all of them once again.

They were passing by the corridor of Maneuver Division 16 as Chiffon continues to explain to him about the facilities of West Genetics as Kazuya listens with an attentive ear at his aunt's instructions.

"The training area up above is used for Carnivals-"

That was when Kazuya and his fellow Limiters began to hear a crashing sound as they look from above as they spotted a familiar Pandora landing towards the stairs with shards of glass falling to the ground that was broken from her impact.

A young woman who has purple eyes and long burgundy red hair which is done in two large pigtails, curled at the tips and tied off at the top with blue ribbons.

This is Ganessa Roland.

The Pandora of Kazuya Aoi's Best Friend.

Arthur Crypton.

She raises herself up as she says in a voice that was a little frustrated, "I haven't gotten stronger since the last time at all!" while noticing that she was no longer alone as she looked towards her left and spotted Kazuya and the others watching her, with Eugene and Abel covering their eyes with their right hands out of respect and courtesy for the exposed Pandora.

For Kazuya, this was the very first time (in both timelines since the former was when he first met her and the latter was when he sees her alive and well and not dead after the past ten years of his personal timeline) as he looks towards The Pandora with his eyes widening as if his eyes were deceiving him and yet he knew that this was not the case. His old friend is alive, walking, and kicking in the flesh.

Ganessa notices Kazuya's long stare at her and mistakes him for peeking on her naked exposed breasts due to the fact that her clothes was slashed by Satellizer and as the expected response, she covers herself and asked in a somewhat embarrassed tone that was full of ire, "What are you staring at?!"

Kazuya then begins to realize his grave error as he looks away immediately while sporting a contrite look as he said in a contrite tone, "I'm sorry."

As he apologizes, he and everyone else, notices another crashing noise that was coming from the roof as another Pandora descends from above.

Insert Song: Start

Steins;Gate OST - Believe Me

Kazuya widens his eyes in shock, joy, and relief as he begins to recognize immediately who she was.

The young woman was an attractive fair-skinned young woman in her late adolescent years who has medium blue eyes and with back-length blonde hair that has several bangs hanging over the left side of her forehead with a blue headband over her hair to keep it in place. Her most distinct feature is her large breasts which are easily larger and more sensitive to touch than those of the other Pandora attending West Genetics; this is primarily due to her foreign origin. Her Genetics uniform is also unique compared to the standard issue Pandora uniform; a long red dress that reaches to her ankles with gold accents, and sleeves with crowned shoulder guards that bear the Genetics emblem. The dress has a cut-out around her breasts, exposing her cleavage, with a blue ribbon situated at the top, grazing the sensitive skin. For footwear she wears brown heeled, laced boots which reach up to her knees over long stockings with brown garter belts.

This is Satellizer L. Bridget.

The Pandora of Kazuya Aoi.

The only woman that he truly loved.

For a split second, he couldn't believe it, the soldier within him took over for a moment, Pragmatic. Logical. Ruthless. Satellizer L. Bridget was dead. There was no ignoring that simple fact. He thought that it was a foolish notion to believe that she was in fact the woman that he truly loved.

But there she was, standing tall in full blazes of glory, alive and well.

Kazuya hesitates for a bit as he takes in each part of her appearance before slowly beginning to run at full speeds as he locks onto Satellizer who was caught by surprise as they both fell towards the wall.

"That idiot! The Untouchable Queen, of all People!" Chiffon said in utter concern towards her nephew as her right hand was clenched in a fist that was raised towards her mouth.

"H-He's gonna get himself killed!" Ticy said in turn as she was concern as well with both of her hands slightly joined and raised slightly to the left with both of her hands clenched in a fist.

Eugene and Abel then turned to each other with a look that denotes that now was the time for one of their plans to commence as they gave a nod to each other.

Satellizer was in utter shock and was blushing slightly as she was reacting in a way that you would somewhat expect a normal girl to react in this somewhat awkward situation for those not in the know.

"What's with that virgin-like reaction?" Chiffon said.

"Virgin?" Ticy said as she turns towards Chiffon.

Satellizer was still in utter shock and was still blushing slightly as she then begins to notice that the unknown boy in question was crying as little by little it was heard.

Not just her.

Everyone heard it.

Kazuya Aoi has cried.

He cries in joy.

He cries in sorrow.

He cries in happiness.

He cries in sadness.

He cries in pain.

For 10 excruciating years, he has waited for this very moment.

For 10 excruciating years, he has been planning for this very day.

For 10 excruciating years, he has been training for this very day.

The day when he would finally reunite with his beloved Pandora.

As he was crying, The Pandoras were all in utter shock and confusion as to why was he even crying like this in the first place.

"K-Kazuya?!" Chiffon thought gravely as she and Ticy looked towards her nephew in utter concern.

Ganessa was confused as to what the hell is happening as she had planned on using this golden opportunity to attack Satelizer while she was down at this very moment but somehow, to her better judgment, decided against it, for in another timeline, she would have used this opportunity and managed to make Satelizer lose her rank in The Carnival and become the first rank in her place but ultimately, she decided against it as she watches the unexpected scene that was right before her and many others.

A boy that she had just met has just cried as he embraced The Untouchable Queen and never letting go.

As if he thinks that she would somehow disappear once again.

Ganessa begins to stand down as she looks towards this boy with intrigue and wonders on whether or not this boy and Satellizer were close.

Judging by the look on her face, she would say that she isn't as she was just as confused as she was.

Satellizer was utterly confused and dumbfounded as she doesn't really know what to do in this situation. This boy was a stranger to her and yet he somehow feels familiar, almost as if in another life, they had met and were very close. She somehow feels as if this boy would not hurt her like the others. She somehow feels as if he would never hurt her like her brother did. And so, Satellizer, to most of everyone's surprise, gives comfort to the crying boy as she hugs him tightly which was silently received by Kazuya with gladness and thanksgiving as he lets out all of his frustration and tears while Satelizer comforts him in a maternal manner.

Eugene and Abel both looked towards their fellow Limiter and comrade in utter concern and empathy for they were the only ones present who truly understand why Kazuya was acting this way for they too felt the exact same way as Kazuya did. They didn't really want to include this special and intimate moment and reunion in this plan that they had all concocted before being sent back but like it or not, this was one part of their plan as a whole, to which Kazuya agreed wholeheartedly before being sent back.

One part of the plan is now complete.

Kazuya has made contact with Satellizer.

And this time, he and Satellizer won't be alone.

This time, they will take a stand alongside them.

This time, they are not alone.

This time, no fellow Pandora would have to fight one another needlessly.

This time, there will be no Pandora Civil War.

This time, they will stand united.

For United They Stand But Divided They Fall.

Eugene and Abel then went towards the both of them with no hesitation, to Chiffon, Ticy, and Ganessa's surprise and bafflement, with Abel giving Kazuya a pat on the back as a sign of comfort and camaraderie as he gave an assuring and grateful nod to Satellizer, who takes note of it as she was surprise that he was coming near her and wasn't afraid of her like the others, while Eugene looks towards Ganessa with a look and expression that denotes seriousness and command to which Ganessa begins to take note of and somehow feels very intimidated as if she were in the presence of a commanding officer.

"Ganessa-senpai, I think it would be wise and prudent if this Carnival were to be canceled at this very instant, so I would suggest that for your own sake that you would not take this opportunity to attack Ms. L. Bridget. Am I understood?"

Eugene said all of that so sharply and so pointedly that Ganessa couldn't help but give a straight nod with her back on straight as if she was in the presence of her superior officer.

Eugene then turned towards Chiffon, who was still sporting a surprised expression on her face as she begins to take note of how Eugene suddenly managed to order a Pandora around without the latter protesting with no effort on his part and notices the tone on his voice that denotes that of an experienced soldier and war veteran, as he looked towards her with the same serious expression that was on his face as he says in a pleading and no-nonsense tone, "Nee-chan, I have a request, call this Carnival off immediately, I don't think anyone is in any condition to fight especially when Kazuya-san is like this so in consideration of this grave and serious matter, it would be wise and prudent if this Carnival were to be postponed until further notice. At least until this matter can be settle properly."

Chiffon couldn't help but agree with that logical assessment out of concern for her nephew and out of gratitude towards the considerate and mature attitude of her Limiter that was beginning to surprise her for the past three weeks as she then begins to nod with acceptance and seriousness as she said, "Alright, I'll informed the staff that this Carnival will be called off."

And so, The Carnival has now been called off without further incident.

Insert Song: End

After a few hours later, Kazuya was able to get a hold of himself just long enough, with a little help from Eugene and Abel, as he sincerely apologizes and bows down to Sattellizer and Ganessa for interrupting and disrupting their battle at the carnival.

"I am so sorry for the inconvenience that I caused you both."

Sattelizer was a little silent but gave him a reassuring look that assures him that it was alright while Ganessa was raising her hands as if to assure him that he shouldn't worry about it.

"Relax, it's no big deal, if anything, we should be asking if you were alright since you were crying non-stop earlier," Ganessa said in a concerned tone.

Kazuya was very silent for a moment as to how to answer that which concerns everyone around him, especially Chiffon since she was his aunt, especially Eugene and Abel who were his comrades who had travelled in time along with him, but eventually decides to answer simply, "Yeah, Ganessa-senpai, I'm alright, I just-" He then makes a hesitant look before continuing, "Satelizer-senpai just reminded of someone."

"Someone?" Ganessa asked with her right eyebrow raised in curiosity while Satelizer begins to take note of the wording, 'Someone', as if it were someone that was special in his life.

"Yeah," Kazuya nodded sincerely, "Someone that was very important to me in my life."

The two Pandoras, especially Satellizer, begins to look at him with sympathy, the latter with empathy as she knows what it feels like to lose someone important to her, as they realized what he was trying to say to them.

"I'm sorry for your lost." Ganessa said with an honest tone.

Kazuya nods gratefully while saying, "Thank you."

After a moment of silence, Eugene enters the conversation as he said, "Ganessa-senpai, Satelizer-senpai, I hate to break this conversation but we need to take Kazuya to the headmistresses' office considering that he was suppose to meet her a few hours ago."

Everyone jolted on that as they realized that they were late for the appointment that was planned for Kazuya.

"Oh, that's right," Chiffon said with her hands raised to her cheeks as she realized just what time it was, "We're late for the appointment, Kazuya, we should go to the headmistresses' office immediately," She said as she was now dragging Kazuya from his shoulder while saying to the two Pandoras, "I'm so sorry for this, ladies, but I have to get this young man to Sister Margaret, I hope you understand."

Chiffon then drags Kazuya with her, with Ticy, Eugene, and Abel following her in turn, while leaving the two Pandoras just utterly dumbfounded at what had just happened.

They arrived at the office a few moments later as Kazuya was now about to be introduced to The Principal and Headmistress of West Genetics who was sitting in her office chair.

Sister Margaret Lindman.

"My name is Kazuya Aoi, sorry for being late Sister Margaret, I just got hold up for a bit. As of this moment, I will now be admitted into The Genetics Limiter Training Program starting today." Kazuya said while raising his right hand to his hair as a sign of embarrassment.

The old woman said in a kindly voice, "Welcome, Kazuya-kun, I am the principal of this institution, Sister Margaret, you're Kazuha Aoi's little brother aren't you? If that is the case then we welcome you with open arms."

"Thank you, ma'am."

"I'm sure you know this already," Sister Margaet said in a tone of notification, "But this Academy was built to train soldiers in the various ways to combat The NOVA, The Extradimensional Beings."

Kazuya begins to straightened his posture and attention in seriousness as he once hears the name of one of his old enemies of the past and future.

"The girls who can use the volt texture, the weapons that were developed to fight off The NOVA, are called Pandoras. As a Limiter, you support The Pandoras by mastering abilities which can restrict The NOVA's Movements. I hope that you will make a great Limiter and a fine Partner for The Pandoras. At this Academy, the choice of who becomes whose Pandora and Limiter is left entirely up to the students. Do the best that you can, Kazuya-kun."

"I will."

Kazuya said these words with no hesitation and with a firm resolve for this was why he was sent back to this time, to make sure that what had happened in the future should never happen again.

After that significant meeting with the headmistress, Chiffon and Ticy begins to continue the tour around the school as Chiffon shows Kazuya all of the known public facilities in West Genetics Academy.

Emphasis on public.

Kazuya, Eugene, and Abel were well and fully aware that Chiffon did not show them the secret underground facility which was built by Gengo Aoi, the grandfather of Kazuya Aoi, The Chief Scientist of Chevalier, the world's top NOVA expert, and the leading undisputed authority on all things Pandora.

The secret underground facility which had kept many of the aunts of Kazuya Aoi, The Legendary Pandora, Sisters of Chiffon Fairchild, or rather Chiffon Aoi, on cryostasis.

The secret underground facility which had kept the grandmother of Kazuya Aoi, Maria Lancelot, The First Pandora.

Chiffon was describing each and every facility that they had known and experience seeing in their very own future.

The dark future that they could never forget.

The dark future that was almost fatal.

The dark future that nearly took their lives.

Were it not for The Time Lord known as The Doctor.

As the sun begins to set, the tour had already finished.

"Well, Kazuya-san, I hope that you begin to understand all of the facilities that I have shown you in our tour in order for you not to get lost since this is quite a big place after all." Chiffon said to her nephew with a voice that was filled with kindness and a bright smile was present to her face as she was enjoying her family bond time with her nephew who she thought sadly would not have known that she was his aunt.

Chiffon would have been right in her assumption...

If she was talking to the past and less experienced version of Kazuya Aoi.

This version was a soldier through and through.

Not just a soldier but a general of The 21st Nova Corps of The 4th Sector Army.

Him along with Eugene, Abel, and the rest of the time travelling Limiters were Generals of The 21st Nova Corps of The 4th Sector Army.

The Generals of The Inter-Universal Marines.

They have earned that rank due to their countless experiences with The NOVA, due to their harsh and brutal training on Kamino, and due to their involvement in military field operations throughout the past ten years of their hardened life as Agents of The SCP Foundation's Men In Black (MIB) Division under the direct command of Max Walker, Member of The O-5 Council.

"Yes, ma'am." Kazuya said with a respectful nod and in a respectful tone that was accompanied by a feeling of happiness at being able to spend quality time with his aunt.

"Well, then." Chiffon said in an accepted tone. "I suppose that you would need to head back towards the boys dorm because it is getting late as the sun now appears to be setting.

"Nee-chan." Eugene said suddenly in a serious tone.

"Hmm..." Chiffon turns her head in a curious response.

"Is it alright if I and Abel were to accompany him towards the boy's dorm? I say this because I want him to feel at ease while being here as we show him the ropes due to the main reasoning being that I and Abel are second year students of this school and that we are well aware of the facilities and the protocols of this school at this point. He should need to be aware that when he needs to ask something with regards to the subjects of Pandoras, Limiters, Genetics, The NOVA, or other topics of importance, he can come to me or to Abel for the necessary advice with no need for any hesitation whatsoever and we would gladly give it to him to the best of our ability." Eugene said all with a tone that was straight to the point and was full of concern while his best friend and comrade, Abel, nodded at his best friend and comrade's suggestion.

Chiffon and Ticy were both caught off guard and were completely surprised at their Limiters once again as they were for the past three weeks, they begin to take note at how Eugene and Abel appear to care greatly for Kazuya.

One that confused them both to no end.

Considering the fact that in Chiffon's eyes (closed or otherwise) and in Ticy's eyes, these three have barely even met as far as they know and yet they already started getting along. What's even more weird is that it feels as if it were just only natural to them and there was that subtle bond between the three of them that she and Ticy felt that is not seen from ordinary eyes.

It was almost as if these three have already met.

Yes, Chiffon would definitely need to spare her Limiter some private alone time with her in order to get some explanation for her Limiter's behavior as of late but for now, she would allow this suggestion that was made by her Limiter out of concern for her nephew.

"Alright, Eugene." Chiffon nodded in acceptance. "You may show him around."

Ticy looks at her with her eyes widened because of how easily accepting Chiffon was in this bizarre situation.

"Thank you, Nee-chan." Eugene nodded in a subtle happy and relieved tone, with Abel becoming happy and relieved as well in a subtle manner, partly because of A Certain Plan ("Keikaku") that was proceeding just as scheduled, partly because they were about to be reunited with their fellow time travelling Limiters who were scattered throughout the world, and partly because Kazuya needed to be with them in order for their meeting with one of their Clone Commanders, Clone Marshal Commander Bacara, Commander of The 21st Nova Corps of The 4th Sector Army, and with one of their bosses in The SCP Foundation that they were assigned under directly, The O-5 Council Member, Max Walker, to commence just as scheduled.

"Well then, Kazuya-kun." Eugene looked towards Kazuya with a subtle look of importance. "If you would please follow me and Abel, I would like to show you to the dorm that you would be officially staying as of this very moment."

"Of course, sir." Kazuya nodded out of respect.

Eugene smirk in a subtle good humor at his respectful response. "How many times to I need to remind you not to call me sir, Kazuya-kun."

"Sorry, Eugene." Kazuya replied with the same subtle good humor. "It's just that you seem to act more like someone who was great experience in military affairs."

"Is that right, kid?" Eugene responded in subtle humor.

"You have to admit Eugene, you do act like a commanding officer all the damn time." Abel said as he joins in on the joke.

"I could say the same to you Abel." Eugene looks at his old friend with a raised eyebrow to the right.

"Well, at least I don't make it as obvious as you do."

"Keep telling yourself that."

"Hahahaha!"

The time travelling Limiters all begin to laugh among themselves almost as if it were only a few weeks since they last saw each other.

In this case, it was all too true as Eugene, Abel, Louis, and the rest of The Limiters of Platoon 13 were all sent in advance before Kazuya could come in to this space-time destination in order to prepare for his arrival.

Chiffon and Ticy tilted their heads in confusion, suspicion, and a little hurt as their eyes begin to narrow (or Chiffon's equivalent of her eyes beginning to narrow due to the fact that her eyelids were always kept shut in order for anyone not to find out about her true nature) feel as if they were intruding on a very private bonding time between comrades who have been through so much together.

It made them feel concerned and a bit uneasy at this bizarre situation.

"Well then, Nee-chan." Eugene said as he turned towards her with a subtle loving glance. "We should probably take our leave as of this very moment."

"Hmm." Chiffon nodded as she said in her sugary tone. "Take care, you three."

Eugene, Abel, and Kazuya begin to take their leave while Chiffon and Ticy looked towards them in concern and suspicion.

Steins;Gate OST - Believe Me

As they were walking a few distances away from The Pandoras though, Eugene suddenly stopped, with his fellow Limiters beginning to notice as the footsteps of their comrade became silent as they both realized immediately on what he was about to do as they sport an understanding and empathetic face that shows their subtle full support.

Eugene walks back faster towards Chiffon and Ticy.

Eugene walks back faster towards Chiffon.

Eugene walks back faster towards his beloved Pandora.

He was walking faster but he wasn't running.

He was walking faster because he knew what he was about to do.

He knew that this move would risk their entire operation but he knew that after their suspicious display at Maneuver Division 16, he knew that Chiffon was not stupid.

He would never consider that as a possibility for he has far more high regard for his beloved Pandora especially after losing her in The 11th NOVA Clash.

He knew that Chiffon and Ticy were starting to get a little suspicious of their behavior as of late for the past three weeks.

He knew that Chiffon would get him alone in accordance with her power and authority as Student Council President.

It was only a matter of time really before she and Ticy find out what they were truly up to.

Their girls were always the smartest.

Which was one of the reasons whyt he and the rest of his fellow Limiters would need to plan accordingly for the possible event when they would eventually be discovered.

The Meeting that was about to take place would give them that perfect opportunity.

Chiffon and Ticy begin to take notice of Eugene's sudden pause for a few moments out of concern. Then they become surprised when they saw him walking faster towards Chiffon.

What happened next was definitely unexpected to them.

What happened next was definitely unexpected to Chiffon herself.

What happened next was definitely expected among the time travelling Limiters who were watching in respectful silence and anticipation.

Eugene begins to hug Chiffon very gently and very tightly with love and with care almost as if it were the very last time he would do this with her which was very true in his case, to Chiffon's surprise, bewilderment, and concern as she sports an unexpected expression that was on her face.

"Eugene!"

This special hug was taken a very long solemn moment.

It appears that the special hug lasted for at least five minutes at most from the outside perspective but it seemed to have lasted a lot more than that.

Chiffon had honestly no idea what to do in this strange situation.

Her Limiter was already acting very different for the past three weeks and it was starting to concern her to the utmost extreme.

She noted the way he held her in his hug.

He held her with love.

He held her with devotion.

He held her with care.

Something that seemed to be a new and shocking experience to Chiffon as she had never felt this way whenever she and Eugene were together.

As far as she was concerned, her Limiter was never a hugging person.

As far as she was concerned, her Limiter was never this kind.

That was the final straw that broke the camels back in her opinion that was full of concern and worry.

Eugene Thompson, as far she was concerned, was never this nice to her and was the one who was usually a person who would be easily annoyed, who would always complain of her and Ticy's antics and has a humor of sarcasm.

But now...

He always treated her likes and opinions fairly.

He always treated her as if she was his most precious and treasured person.

He always treated her with the proper respect that is long overdue.

He always treated her as if it were the very last time he would see her.

Something that was completely new to Chiffon as she recalled all of the things that have happened in the past three weeks.

There was that time that she recalled from last two weeks ago when he and Chiffon were walking towards a corridor when they suddenly heard a couple of Limiters and Pandoras gossiping about her and the title that Chiffon had gained as a result of what she did during her first year when she attended The Summer Carnival of 2063.

"Hey look, it's The Unmatched Smiling Monster."

"I heard that she brutally defeated over 40 Pandoras two years ago while having a smile on her face."

"We should probably leave now while we still can because otherwise she might get us next."

Those who uttered these words were her fellow Pandora who had heard of her infamous incident but weren't there to witness it as they were only in their first year.

This title that was given to her honestly made her sad and upset wherever and whenever it was uttered as she was constantly reminded of that very day at The Summer Carnival of 2063 went she went berserk although she didn't necessarily showed that she was sad and upset from the outside because of her smile that is always shown to everyone so that most people couldn't really tell about her true feelings on the matter.

Uttered as if it were a cursed word.

Uttered as if it were a word of caution.

Uttered as if it were a twisted perversion of her own promise to Aureriel.

It was at that very precise moment when Eugene unexpectedly made a U-turn all of a sudden, giving The Pandora who called her by that title along with a couple of Limiters and Pandoras who were gossiping about her, with the glare that demands complete silence.

They all begin to noticed.

They all begin to be very afraid of him.

They could not even speak a word.

They could not even utter a word.

They could not even say a word.

There was just the uneasy feeling of silence.

There was just the uneasy feeling of uncertainty.

The two Pandoras and the other Pandoras and Limiters were completely and utterly silent.

Chiffon looked towards her Limiter in shock as her eyes begin to slightly widen but not enough to reveal her eyes out of extreme concern.

She looked into the eyes of her own Limiter and saw things that she never thought that she saw.

She saw righteous anger.

She saw disgust.

She saw retribution.

She saw discipline.

She saw disappointment.

She saw light.

She saw dark.

She saw someone who was not a teenager.

She saw someone who was a hardened man.

She saw someone who seemed to be a man of high stature and rank.

She saw someone who was a soldier through and through.

When she saw him like this, it honestly made her of all people feel very much afraid and full of dread.

She was a Legendary Pandora.

She shouldn't be this afraid, that she knew.

And yet...

Just one look on her Limiter's face seemed to suggest that whatever power that she possessed now was a mere nothing compared to her Limiter.

She felt something in her bond with her Limiter.

She felt both light and darkness.

Something that was very surprising to her as the emotions of her Limiter were well felt by her.

Feelings of love.

Feelings of care.

Feeling of anger.

Feeling of despair.

After that dreadful moment of silence, Eugene stops giving them his dreadful glare and just walks ahead towards the north of her direction.

The Pandoras and The Limiters around the vicinity were still in complete silence.

The Pandoras and The Limiters around the vicinity were still in utter fear.

The Pandoras and The Limiters around the vicinity were still in utter dread.

After a few seconds, Chiffon went after him in haste.

"Eugene! Wait!"

Eugene stops and turns towards her. No longer sporting that frightening glare that he used against The Pandoras and The Limiters from earlier. Instead, he sports an unreadable expression that was on his face as he looks towards Chiffon.

"Eugene. What was that all about? Why did you suddenly glare like that to every Pandora and every Limiter who were there with us at the corridor?"

Chiffon asked in a haste of concern.

Eugene had made a hesitant look that was on his face for a few moments. After those few moments, he began to utter an answer that would surprise her.

"Because they have no idea what they're talking about."

When he said that, Chiffon ask him once again with a concerned expression.

"Eh? What do you mean by that?"

Eugene begins to look at her with an expression that denotes the subtlety of pain and the subtlety of sorrow. He begins in a tone of resignation.

"The Pandoras and The Limiters of every single part of the world call you The Unmatched Smiling Monster because of what you did at The Summer Carnival of 2063, Nee-chan, but... most of them don't seem to realize their one fatal flaw and one fatal mistake when they continue to utter that accursed title that is not worthy of your stature."

Chiffon's eyes begin to widen when he said her title was an accursed one in his very eyes almost as if it were a stain that he so desires to wipe out utterly from the face of the earth. The way he said in a tone that made her completely realized that he completely and utterly disliked and hated her given known title as The Unmatched Smiling Monster.

"Let me ask you something Nee-chan. What do you think is the actual definition of a monster?"

Chiffon could not answer that question right away.

She could not answer the question right away since it was a question that seems as old as time itself.

She could not answer the question since it was a very complex question in and of itself.

The way her Limiter said that made her feel that he had seen monsters first hand.

He had seen them.

He had fought them.

He had beaten them.

"A monster is often a type of grotesque creature, whose appearance frightens and whose powers of destruction threaten the human world's social or moral order, Monsters pre-date written history, and the academic study of the particular cultural notions expressed in a society's ideas of monsters is known as monstrophy. Nee-chan. But..."

Eugene paused for a moment as if he were delivering a final wording in his speech about the complexity of the term "monster".

"What if that monster in question was just nothing more than just an ordinary human being?"

Chiffon was completely silent and completely surprised at what he had just said to her.

She knew all to well what that question entailed.

She knew that not all humans were the same.

She knew that there were some who were so despicable that made The NOVA looked like as if they were almost nothing.

Almost.

Her experience in losing Aureriel was living proof of that.

She wanted nothing more than to make her killers pay dearly for what they did to her first and only friend outside of the lab.

She brutally slaughtered every single human soldier that was present in that incident in vengeance after cradling the dead body of her friend and wailing in her pain.

She never really forgave her sister and fellow Legendary Pandora, Lucy Aoi, or as she was to be known at a later point in time, Lucy Renault, a member of The Valkyrie, for having some of the fault and the blame on her first friend's death in part of that twisted operation to retrieve her back to the lab.

She wasn't really sure if she could ever forgive her for what she did even though she had no part in the cold blooded murder of her first friend.

Her experience with her fellow Pandoras was also living proof of that.

Three Pandoras had bullied Ticy continuously and non-stop during their first year.

She finally had enough of it when those Three Pandoras ended up making Ticy cry due to the fact that they unintentionally killed Ticy's precious pet turtle whom they were keeping hostage in order to force Ticy to get incriminating evidence from Chiffon in order to use it as a form of blackmail.

Since it was happening during The Summer Carnival of 2063...

Let's just say things took a turn for the worst for those three girls.

They, along with over at least 37 Pandora who were never really involved in Ticy's horrible predicament, were brutally massacred by her.

They all managed to survive her wrath thankfully depending on a certain point of view.

But...

Let's just say that some of them could no longer take part in active duty as Pandora as a result of that twisted incident.

It would have been a whole lot worst if it weren't for Ticy trying to talk her out of her bloodlust rage while having a smile on her face.

That incident became her constant shame.

That incident became completely unforgettable for her.

That incident made her realize just how fragile humans can be.

That incident made her realize just how powerful she truly is.

That incident made her realize how far apart she and her fellow Pandoras are to each other.

That incident made her vowed never to let loose like that ever again and would only do it as a last resort when all other possibilities would be exhausted.

But Eugene managed to say something that both surprises her, consoles her, and touches her heart considerably.

"A smile is formed primarily by flexing the muscles at the sides of the mouth. Some smiles include a contraction of the muscles at the corner of the eyes, an action known as a Duchenne smile. Among humans, a smile expresses delight, sociability, happiness, joy or amusement. It is distinct from a similar but usually involuntary expression of anxiety known as a grimace. Although cross-cultural studies have shown that smiling is a means of communication throughout the world, there are large differences among different cultures, religions and societies, with some using smiles to convey confusion or embarrassment."

"As far as I can see it, any person whether if it was a man, a woman, or a child could be considered as a monster from a certain point of view. It seriously depends if the right sequence of events were to be pushed as it were that would have made them to be so. But I deeply pray and hope to myself however that such unfortunate circumstances are extremely few in number. As far as I can see it from my own certain viewpoint, you are not a monster, Nee-chan. As to how I know that, I would only need to mention Ticy-senpai. The terms 'smile' and 'monster' can never be the same for they are very contradictory and very incompatible with each other. Yes, there are people out there that smile by doing horrible and terrible acts but such smiles I would not consider as smiles for they are just fake and not truly real. Those aren't smiles in my personal opinion. A smile is one of the most precious things in existence that we humans possessed. It is one of our unique qualities. A smile denotes true happiness. A smile was created, made, and designed for the purpose of showing true happiness and true comfort. If we we're to lose one of those precious qualities that made us human, I greatly fear that humanity would end up doomed towards extinction and that we would be doing The NOVA a favor as they would easily wipe us out. For simple things can often lead to great outcomes."

Chiffon couldn't help but wonder in surprise on just how much does Eugene displayed his wisdom that seems far beyond his apparent age and the full story behind it.

Chiffon couldn't help but wonder in surprise on just how much does Eugene truly know about her incident in The Summer Carnival of 2063 and the full story behind it.

She knew that Eugene knew about The Summer Carnival of 2063 from the official story.

Who hasn't heard of it.

Eugene's reaction to that was very silent.

She never knew the reaction that her Limiter had when she first met him.

He was just completely silent on the matter.

One would think that he was just avoiding the subject all together in order not to open any old wounds.

But Chiffon didn't mind in the slightest, so long as he didn't talked about that incident, everything would turn out to be fine.

And yet...

The way he mentioned Ticy's name with a subtle empathetic tone that denotes that he knows far more than he let's own.

It was almost as if he understood what she had felt that very day.

It was almost as if he understood what she did that very day.

The way he mentioned the term "monster" with a subtle grave tone that denotes that he knows far more than he let's own.

It was almost as if he had experience with monsters.

It was almost as if he fought them.

It was almost as if he survived them.

It was almost as if he beaten them.

The way he mentioned the term "smile" with a subtle tone that denotes that he knows far more than he let's own.

It was as if he understood the concept.

It was as if it were something precious to him.

It was as if it were something that he would fight to his very last breath in order to preserve it.

It made Chiffon ask a delicate question towards her Limiter in her soft curious voice.

"Why would you say all of that, Eugene?"

Eugene then made a painful expression that was on his face as he uttered in a voice that was filled with utter dread.

"You don't want to know, Nee-chan."

That answer did not comfort her in the slightest due to the subtle but no less visible painful expression that was on his face.

She couldn't ask for more due to that painful expression and just went completely silent as they both begin to walk in complete and utter silence.

There was that time she recalled last week, on a Friday afternoon, when she and Ticy where there hanging out as usual at The Student Council Office, when Eugene suddenly came in unexpectedly, interrupting their conversation, with a serious unreadable expression that was on his face, as he gifted her with her favorite cake (to her joy, surprise and bewilderment) that he had gotten from who knows where as he put it on the table as gently as possible. The one cake that she shares her first name with.

Chiffon Cake.

And it was chocolate too.

A chiffon cake is a very light cake made with vegetable oil, eggs, sugar, flour, baking powder, and flavorings. Being made with vegetable oil, instead of a traditional solid fat such as butter or shortening, it is easier to beat air into the batter. As a result, chiffon cakes (as well as angel cakes and other foam cakes) achieve a fluffy texture by having egg whites beaten separately until stiff and then folded into the cake batter before baking. Its aeration properties rely on both the quality of the meringue and the chemical leaveners.

A chiffon cake combines methods used with sponge cakes and conventional cakes. It includes baking powder and vegetable oil, but the eggs are separated and the whites are beaten before being folded into the batter, creating the rich flavor like an oil cake, but with a lighter texture that is more like a sponge cake.

They can be baked in tube pans or layered with fillings and frostings.

In the original recipe, the cake tin is not lined or greased, which enables the cake batter to stick to side of the pan, giving the cake better leverage to rise, as well as support in the cooling process when the cake is turned upside down to keep air bubbles stable.

She once asked him on what was the occasion for this surprised gift seeing as it wasn't really her birthday that day.

He had an unreadable expression on his face.

He said that it was only to show his appreciation to the most beautiful among The Pandora.

He said that it was only to show his appreciation to the most kind among The Pandora.

He said that it was only to show his appreciation to the most understanding among The Pandora.

He said all of this with an honest and a serious no-nonsense tone.

All of these sudden complements made Chiffon completely blush as a result of the unexpected praise that her Limiter had adorned and showered her with.

The subtle and special way her Limiter praise her with care was completely and utterly new to her since that never really happened as far as she can recall in all the times that she spent with him.

Ticy was watching all this with both of her hands touching towards her face in shock and was blushing as well due to the way Eugene uttered his composed praises to Chiffon.

She smiled beautifully as she thanked him for the wonderful gift that he had given her in her sweet voice.

"Thank you, Eugene."

Eugene made a nod of acceptance.

But...

Suddenly, he begins to leave all of a sudden, to Chiffon and Ticy's surprise.

Chiffon asked in haste, in surprise, and in concern.

"Eugene, where do you think you're going?"

Eugene stop his walk before he reaches the door as he turns back slightly towards them with a hesitant look.

"I just thought that you two needed some privacy, Nee-chan."

"Nonsense. You are staying here with us as we eat this wonderful cake that you have bought just for me. That is my official order to you, both as your Pandora and as The Student Council President."

Chiffon said all this with a tone that denotes that she won't take no for an answer and that she wanted Eugene to spend time with her seeing as he had been avoiding her and Ticy lately and wanted to rectify that by using this situation to her advantage.

Eugene still sported a hesitant expression on his face but eventually relented to his beloved Pandora's request.

"Alright."

He said it so simply in a tone that denotes resignation as he makes his way towards the table where he put the cake packaging box.

Eugene, Chiffon, Ticy, and Abel (who was called and dragged in to The Student Council Room by Ticy herself) were all there eating the cake that Eugene had given Chiffon.

Chiffon and Ticy were enjoying the cake that Eugene had brought just for Chiffon to their heart's content.

But...

Eugene and Abel barely touched their slice of the cake as they ate silently while staring at their beloved Pandoras as they tried to burn each and every expression that was on their faces.

As if it were very last time that they would seem them.

In their case...

It was the dark and horrible truth.

It was their burden.

It was something that they had to live with for 10 years.

It was something that made them realize one constant lesson in The Known and Unknown Multiverse.

"Time is not always on your side."

As much as possible, Eugene and Abel will continue to do their absolute best to make their beloved Pandoras happy.

As much as possible, Eugene and Abel will continue to do their absolute best to not take their beloved Pandoras for granted.

They and their fellow time travelling Limiters were truly grateful for what The Doctor and his allies had given them.

A second chance to make things right.

That was all that they could have ask for.

They have it and they will not let this chance slip past by.

They are not alone in this fight.

They have allies now throughout The Known and Unknown Multiverse.

They have The 21st Nova Corps of The 4th Sector Army as their assigned designated army to fight against The NOVA.

This time, they will fight to their very last breath to keep everyone safe.

This time, they will fight to their very last breath to keep their fellow Limiters safe.

This time, they will fight to their very last breath to keep their fellow Pandora safe.

This time, they will fight to their very last breath to keep their beloved Pandora safe.

There were many instances where Eugene did something that was surprising her for the last three weeks.

If we were to name them all...

That would be difficult considering the subtlety and the secrecy.

The special hug between The Pandora and her Limiter. Between Chiffon Fairchild and Eugene Thompson. Lasted for only a five minutes at most before Eugene finally lets her go, to his great reluctance, as he then prepares to take leave and heads towards his fellow Limiters and comrades.

Chiffon (especially) and Ticy were completely stunned at the sudden action that Eugene had just pulled.

He managed to surprised both of them yet again.

Chiffon raised her right hand towards the direction of where her Limiter was walking along with his fellow Limiters.

Almost as if she wanted to reach him.

Almost as if she wanted to stop him from going.

Almost as if she wanted to call out to him.

But she could not say her a word even though her mouth was open.

Her mouth was trembling.

Her smile was beginning to crumble.

Both on the inside and the outside.

The way that her Limiter was showering her with praises for the past three weeks.

The way that her Limiter was treating her with care.

It made her heart ache.

It was a miracle that she hasn't cried at this point.

Always reminding herself to keep on smiling as part of her promise to Aureriel.

But it seems it has become a little difficult at keeping that promise.

But it seems that she's trying very hard not to cry.

She felt her Limiter's emotions through their bond.

She felt his content when he was hugging her.

She felt his inner peace when he was hugging her.

She felt his happiness when he was hugging her.

She felt his sadness when he was hugging her.

She felt his pain when he was hugging her.

She felt his suffering when he was hugging her.

Pain and suffering that was filled with a lifetimes regret.

All of the dark memories from the dark future that he and his fellow Limiters came from was present to her as clear as day and as fog as night.

Memories that left Chiffon shook her to the very core of her soul.

She saw it all...

Her Limiter and a few Limiters were the only surviving humans left.

That caused her endless grief as she begins to realize. to her shock and horror, that The NOVA have completely and utterly won in the future.

Humanity was driven to the brink of extinction.

All of The Pandoras...

Were completely and utterly extinct.

In other words...

They were all dead.

Chiffon wanted to stop him from leaving.

But she couldn't...

She wanted to stop him from leaving so that she could give him the love and comfort that he deserved at least much.

But she couldn't...

She didn't know why but she somehow felt as if her Limiter had something important to do.

An important task that could determine on whether or not she could survive.

An important task that could determine on whether or not The Pandora could survive.

An important task that could determine on whether or not humanity could survive.

An important task that could determine on whether or not there would be a future.

That was why she could not call out to him.

And so she let him be.

But...

That did not made her comfortable in the slightest.

That did not made her at eased in the slightest.

As she begins to realize her Limiter's feelings for her.

Her Limiter wanted nothing more than her complete happiness.

Her Limiter wanted nothing more than her smiles.

He treasures them.

He adores them.

He loves them.

All of this made Chiffon begin to break down little by little as she clasped her right hand towards her heart.

Ticy looked towards her best friend in concern as she saw the painful expression that was her best friend's face.

"Chiffon!"

Ticy called out to her in worry as she touches her left shoulder.

"Chiffon! What is it?! What's wrong?!"

Chiffon was jolted suddenly from her depressing thoughts as she looked towards her best friend.

She tried to answer but she couldn't.

She knew the answer but she could not say.

She could not formulate the answer.

Her answer was that she felt Eugene through her bond.

She felt all of it.

All of his pain.

All of his suffering.

All of regret.

All of these negative emotions swirling down towards her like a deep tsunami.

She felt his age.

His age was no longer that of a teenager but that of an adult who had experienced far too much than anyone should have.

All of these come crashing down on her like a ton of bricks.

She could only raise her hands to her face as she drops on her knees to the ground.

Ticy begins to worry as she makes haste towards Chiffon's side.

"Chiffon! Chiffon! What is it?! What's wrong?!"

And that was when she heard it.

Something that seemed to be impossible in hindsight.

Something that seemed to be unbelievable in hindsight.

Something that would not happen if the whole world were to be thrown upside down.

But that seems to be case now.

For the very first time in the history of this universe.

Chiffon Fairchild.

The Smiling Monster.

Was crying.

She was crying softly because of her Limiter.

She felt his love for her.

She felt his devotion for her.

She felt his need for her.

She had never realized his feelings for her.

She had never known his feelings for her.

She was completely and utterly ignorant.

All of this made her cry for her Limiter as she realized just how precious and loved that she was.

Ticy was very surprised at what she was seeing because in all the years of having known her, Chiffon Fairchild never cried. She always smiled. How did this happen she did not know but what she does know is that she could not do anything but give her a comforting and supporting hug in order to ease her best friend and fellow Pandora at the hidden suffering that seemed to have happened in a sudden clap of thunder.

"It's alright, Chiffon. It's ok."

Ticy tries to comfort her and it seems to have worked slightly as she begins to calm down little by little.

After calming down, she helped Chiffon back towards their dorm room as silently and as secretly as possible without anyone noticing.

By a miracle, they managed to reach back to their room in total silence, with Ticy shutting and locking the door in order for Chiffon not to be disturbed more than she should.

Chiffon was just sitting in one of the bunk beds of their room, with her hands reaching to her knees as she encloses them.

She sports a rather saddened expression on her face that was so unlike the normal Chiffon that Ticy and everyone else in West Genetics and in other places were familiar with.

It honestly made Ticy feel very worried and rather uncomfortable.

There was complete silence in the room.

Neither of them were talking.

After a long period of silence, Ticy finally decided to break the ice as it were.

She went towards Chiffon's side in order to act as her support in this trying time of her best friend's life as she laid her left hand towards her.

"Chiffon." Ticy said in a worried tone.

Chiffon looked towards her slowly.

"What exactly happened back there?"

Ticy asked this simple question.

A simple question that became very complex to her as a result of what she had just discovered.

Like before, she could not answer right away.

For the truth seemed far more complicated than she thought.

She knew that something felt off about her Limiter.

She knew that there was something that her Limiter was not telling her.

Now...

She had some idea.

If she were to be honest... this was far too strange... even for her...

It would appear that... despite such an impossibility that would never have happen... her Limiter... Eugene Thompson... is not the same teenage boy that she had known him as.

Her Limiter was now far older than appearances make it out to be.

How was this possible, she did not know.

She felt her bond with him as he hugged her.

She felt his age.

She felt his pain.

She felt his sorrow.

She really doesn't know on how to answer Ticy's concerned question.

"Ticy."

Ticy became attentive as this was the first time in a while that her best friend had managed to speak to her without crying.

"Something has gone terribly wrong with Eugene."

"Wrong?" Ticy made a confused and curious expression. "What do you mean by that?"

"My Limiter..." Chiffon made a hesitant expression before continuing in a sad tone. "You know how my Limiter has been acting weird for the past three weeks."

Ticy made a nod.

"As it turns out, I happened to discover a part of the reason as to why."

Ticy's eyes begin to widen at that statement.

"Wait! Really!"

Chiffon nodded sadly.

"What did you find out, Chiffon?"

Ticy said in a rather excited tone, with main reason being that if she could find out what was wrong with Eugene then maybe she can find out what was wrong with Abel as their attitude and behavior is similar in pattern.

Chiffon begins to feel a more deeper sadness as her expression denotes which was noticed by Ticy, who became less excited and look more worried now.

"My Limiter, Eugene Thompson, is no longer a teenager."

There was the answer.

An answer that confused Ticy.

"No longer a teenager. What do you mean by that?"

"I mean what I said Ticy." Chiffon said in a rather serious and saddened tone. "My Limiter may look like a 16 year old young teenager just like the rest of The Limiters of this school but..." She hesitated for a moment before continuing. "Somehow, as impossible as it sounds, he has become 10 years older mentally and I have absolutely no idea as to how that is possible or how was it even accomplished. I felt him, Ticy! I felt his age! I felt his pain! I felt his suffering! I saw..."

Chiffon becomes utterly silent all of a sudden in her sudden rant as if she were almost strucked by lightning.

"What?! Chiffon! What did you see!"

Ticy said all this in an excited frantic tone, wanting to know more even though she doesn't completely understand what her best friend is going through.

The only thing she could understand were two things.

1.) That her best friend's Limiter was far older than he appears to be from the outside.

2.) There was something that Chiffon saw that concerns her Limiter.

The first one was a lot simple to figure out if she were to be honest.

If what she said was true regarding Eugene's actual age, it can only mean one thing in her simple mind. One that seems to be impossible at first glance due to the fact that it was it was depicted in many comics, novels, and movies in fiction and was just a scientific theory that hasn't been confirmed to be possible but after The NOVA had appeared on their planet all those 53 years ago, in all honestly to her in particular, she believed that anything could be possible at this point.

Her best friend's Limiter, Eugene Thompson, has somehow travelled in time.

In other words, Mental Time Travel.

Mental Time Travel is a form of time travel where you don't physically go back in time. Instead, your body goes back to where it was in the state that it was, but you keep your memories from the future. The advantage is that, if done correctly, it neatly sidesteps many of the logical conundrums and paradoxes associated with time travel. The disadvantage is that your range of times to travel to is limited to the time your body can function for these purposes, a few decades at most.

This is the only rational (if you could call it that) explanation as far as she is concerned and that she believed that her best friend had realized that as well.

That would honestly explain a lot in her opinion seeing as Eugene and Abel have been rather acting a lot different lately, which was noticed by most of the school by now since it has almost been three weeks. Most people never paid much mind to it though. Elizabeth, her clique, and their Limiters though... They have been trying to find out about this strange occurrence in their school since day 1 since their Limiters reported back to them on the strange behavior of Eugene and her Limiter. Elizabeth and her fellow Pandoras tried to find out about this strange occurrence and so they ask their Limiters to keep an eye out for them and report back to them of anything that they can find. The Limiters tried their very best to do just that, both because of their Pandora and because they were honestly very worried for them as they were friends with them, but every single time they tried to do that, their either nowhere to be found, their too busy dealing with school work, their too busy in the training center or the fact that their with either her or Chiffon. They haven't really given up yet as far as she knows.

That would honestly explain a bunch so there goes answer no. 1.

Answer no. 2 on the other hand is a whole lot trickier since Chiffon said that she saw something and just all of a sudden, she went completely silent. It honestly frightened her a bit because if that was true and that she was right regarding the mental time travel theory being the correct answer, she could only guess that her best friend saw her Limiter's memories. Memories of the future. A future that was unknown to her but it is somehow known to her best friend. She was rather afraid of the information that she would find out considering Chiffon's sudden silence. If it is any indication, what her best friend saw could not be good judging by the colorless, dreadful, and concerned look that was on her face. That worried her to no end as she thought of her Limiter.

If the mental time travel theory did explain Eugene's behavior, it would definitely explain her Limiters behavior as well which worried her to no end.

If her best friend's face was any indication, it would appear that the future that Eugene, Abel, and Kazuya (since he was also acting weird and was rather on familiar terms with her Limiter and Eugene which made her conclude that he was also a time traveller) came from was not that of sunshine and colors of brightness.

It was something far too different.

Something that was a lot darker.

All of a sudden, Chiffon begins to speak in a serious no-nonsense matter as she tells Ticy on what should be done as she grabs her two shoulders, which surprises Ticy considerably.

"Ticy, listen to exactly as I say. No one must ever find out about this. Ever. Not Sister Margaret. Not Ms. Kim. Not Dr. Schmitz, Not Elizabeth. Not Arnett. Not Attia. Not Creo. Not Ingrid. Not anyone! Is that clear?"

Ticy couldn't help but give a nod immediately as she begins to notice the serious tone that Chiffon would use as Student Council President. That, and she agreed especially because her growing concern for her Limiter as well.

Chiffon begins to sigh heavily in relief as she let's go of Ticy's shoulders.

She begins to think deeply of her Limiter and what he seems to be doing as of now.

Probably something important if he and Abel were volunteering to show Kazuya the dorm was anything to go by.

She may have seen his dark and terrible future but that did not mean she saw all of it.

There were still certain memories that remained blocked.

There were still certain memories that remained unaccessible.

These certain memories begin to worry Chiffon greatly.

She had just seen that dark and terrible future.

And yet...

There was something else.

There was a feeling.

A feeling of hope.

A feeling that she had felt in one of the blocked memories in question.

She didn't know why but...

This certain memory seemed to special.

The memory may be blocked but...

She felt something in that certain blocked memory.

A presence that was ancient.

A presence that was divine.

A presence that was hope.

A presence that was a promise.

This presence was that of a someone.

A person.

Someone that was far above every single Pandora of the past, present, and future.

Someone that was far above her and her sisters.

Someone that was far above The NOVA.

This presence carries a sign of reassurance towards her Limiter and his fellow Limiters.

She did not know why but...

She felt as if she could trust this very presence to protect her Limiter and his fellow Limiters from harm.

She felt as if she could tell that this very presence understood all too well what it was truly like to suffer tremendously.

With this presence, she felt a bit relieved.

With this presence, she felt a bit reassured.

She knew that somehow, one way or another, her Limiter and his fellow Limiters would safe from any harm because of this presence.

A presence that radiated hope.

A presence that radiated mercy.

A presence that radiated compassion.

A presence that radiated justice.

A presence that radiated divinity.

Little did she realize however since that certain memory was blocked, that presence that she felt is well known throughout The Known and Unknown Multiverse.

Little did she realize however since that certain memory was blocked, that presence that she felt is well known by The Name of The Promise.

Little did she realize however since that certain memory was blocked, that presence that she felt is well known by The Name of The Doctor.

She knew that somehow, one way or another, her most precious Limiter would be safe in this presence's hands and this presence would make absolutely sure of this if it were the first and the last thing that he would ever do.

Yes, her most precious Limiter.

She had just found out about his certain unwavering feelings for her that stood the test of time for about ten years of his actual life.

She never knew just how much did he love her truly and deeply in the both the past and the future.

It was only now that she did.

And when her Limiter returns from whatever he and his fellow Limiters were doing as of this very moment, she will do anything that is in her power to act as his support.

It was the least that she could do.

She felt his desire for her to be happy and full smiles.

Something that touched her dearly.

And this time, when he returns, she will shower him with love and with affection like never before.

For she, Chiffon Fairchild, had grown to care for him over the years that they have been together for the past 2 years of their lives as partners.

For she, Chiffon Fairchild, had once treated him as if he were just a little brother that she grew to care for.

Now though...

There was something else entirely.

She, Chiffon Fairchild, has fallen deeply in love with her fellow Limiter.

She always did if she were to think deeply about it and look back at the past.

It's just that she never seemed to pay mind to it almost every single time since she thought that what she was feeling wasn't actually love but just something entire different.

She had these feelings ever since she first met him all those 2 years ago, when they first met as she saw him and Abel walking towards the school grounds.

It was only because of this incident that she realized her feelings towards her Limiter.

Her one and only Limiter.

The only boy...

No.

The only man that she truly love.

When he gets back, she will be waiting for him with open arms.

She thought all of this with a smile that was adorned on her face as she places both of her hands one her face which was noticed by Ticy, who didn't called out to her because she of all people knew what that face signified.

A woman who was in love.

She honestly felt relieved at her best friend and her return to her happy mood.

But...

She was still worried about what her best friend said regarding the future.

She was still worried about her Limiter.

When she sees her Limiter once again, she is going to have to confront him with this strange discovery that she and Chiffon found out this very night eventually.

Him, Eugene, and Kazuya.

It was on that very night that before the two Pandoras went to sleep, they begin to think of a plan to get their Limiters alone so that they can say to them that there was no need to keep their lives as secret as possible.

They should know that they are here to act as their support.

They should know that they are always here for them.

They should know that they are never truly alone.

They should know that the love that their Pandora's love have for them is not in vain.

They should know that their Pandoras accept their feelings gladly and with no hesitation.

Little did they both realize that when they fall asleep, they are about to see dreams that were hidden from the outside world and how those dreams are eventually an ominous warning towards the dark horizon of the future to come.

Insert Song: End

Meanwhile, in another room of the girl's dorm apartment lived A Certain Pandora (Satellizer L. Bridget) as she was just taking a shower before going to bed. While the water begins to pour down on her face, she couldn't help but recall that mysterious boy (Kazuya Aoi) that jumped her by surprised.

She never got his name because she never had the opportunity to ask.

However...

There was something completely different about this boy that was noticed by her.

She felt to herself that this boy and her have already met but she does not recall any particular meeting where they did meet as far as she was concerned.

Then there was the way he spoke.

He spoke in a tired voice.

He spoke in a sorrowful voice.

He spoke in a way that you would think that the whole world and its burdens lies under his shoulders.

She didn't know what to think but she feels as if she feels safe whenever he was in her presence.

She didn't know what to think about this bizarre situation.

Even The Limiters of Chiffon Fairchild and Ticy Phenyl were acting bizarre since in the only year since attending this branch of Genetics, she never recalled them approaching her without any sign of caution due to her infamous reputation of what she did back when she attended East Genetics Academy.

And yet...

They did not hesitate to come near her, with one of them (Abel Rotomaster) comforting patting on the back to his fellow Limiter and gave her a nod that denotes thankfulness, which surprises her considerably, while the other one (Eugene Thompson) begins to order the other Pandora (Ganessa Roland) to stand down with ease, which also surprises her considerably, while the other Pandora complied with his request as she stood firm and then he turns towards his Pandora, telling her in a pleading and serious no-nonsense tone, that The Carnival must be postponed until further notice out of consideration for the combatants and out of concern for the mysterious boy who had begun to hug her and to cry in grief and sorrow while doing so. That Limiter (Eugene Thompson) was also indirectly responsible for making sure that her rank stayed completely intact. Whether this was deliberate or not, Satellizer didn't know but she was rather grateful for this subtle gesture of kindness nonetheless and wouldn't have expected it from a mile a way due to many being afraid of her.

She felt something very strange from That Limiter (Eugene Thompson) who gave the order to make the other Pandora (Ganessa Roland) stand down almost as if this feeling was warning her and everyone else on never to trifle with him to your own judgment and peril for it would be your very last. This extends as well to That Other Limiter (Abel Rotomaster) and the mysterious boy (Kazuya Aoi) as well.

As she finished her shower from the bathroom and begins to wear her night gown and went to her bed in order to have a good night's rest, she resolved to at the very least look for and search for this mysterious boy that she had just met that very morning who seemed to touch her heart to the very core almost as if it were a natural thing which confused her to no end, but she would digress as she now begins to tuck in for the night in order to prepare herself for tomorrow morning.

The time travelling Limiters were walking in complete and utter silence.

They were not talking to anyone who had passed by them.

They were not even talking to each other.

They were completely focus on one single objective.

To get to their dorm without raising anyone's suspicion.

They managed to succeed in that objective as they finally managed to reach the dorm where all of The Limiters stayed from their first year to their third year.

As The Limiters were silently walking towards the corridor where the various rooms of their fellow Limiters were located, they finally managed to reach the room of Eugene Thomspon and Abel Rotomaster.

The three Limiters begin to make sure that they are alone by checking every corner of the dorm for any witnesses. They did not spot any. So they entered the room while Eugene locks the door shut to prevent anyone from opening it randomly.

The room look ordinary enough.

A bunk bed in the side.

Two desk tables.

Everything looked to be in complete order and tip top shape.

Abel heads towards his desk as he pulled out a wristwatch from one of the closets of the desk as he throws it towards Kazuya, who manages to catch it with his quick reflexes, as he then begins to wear it firmly in his left wrist.

They all went towards the centre of the room.

Eugene begins to raised his left hand slightly towards the direction of his mouth as he presses a button from a watch that was in his left wrist that looks like an ordinary wristwatch from first appearances, but it is very far from the case as this watch just so happens to have many various and diverse functions that were put into it.

One of them was the extensive use of military communications channel and hotline for military operations and purposes.

He activated his wristwatch as he made his presence known to the receiver of his comm link.

"Command. This is General Eugene Thompson of The 21st Nova Corps. Advise for transmat pick-up at our exact location and our exact coordinates."

In just a moment, an older voice was heard from the static of the comm link.

"Copy that sir. Stand by for transmat pick-up."

Kazuya, Eugene, and Abel then prepared themselves for pick-up as they begin to notice that there was a sudden light that appears to engulf them.

It all happened in a sudden flash.

They were once in the room.

Now they weren't.

They have been transported to their intended destination.

A destination that is far out of anyone's reach.

A destination that is located in the vastness and diversity of space.

Location:

Multiverse Cluster: LDY (Lim Dall-Young) Verse

Universe: Freezing Verse

Date and Time: 2065

Location: Kamino (Clone Homeworld), The Solar System Outpost

Insert Song: Start

Star Wars - Grand Army of the Republic Suite (Theme)

Somewhere in the vastness of space. Somewhere in The Solar System. A hidden blue planet encircled in perfect harmony and perfect balance along with the other planets in The Solar System.

This blue planet is not Earth.

It is known as The Planet Kamino.

Or rather.

One of The Clone Homeworlds of The Planet Kamino.

The Main Homeworld of Kamino is still back in its own universe which is protected by Transduction Barriers, Quantum Shields, and Sky Trenches. They aren't as strong as Gallifrey, which was The Main Homeworld of The Time Lords, but they're quite strong enough. The Main Homeworld is also protected with Xeelee Construction Material (XCM) and Downstreamer Construction Material (DCM). With the courtesy and the aid of The Xeelee and The Downstreamers. Two Members of The Temporal Powers Alliance (TPA). The same protection can be applied also to The Clone Homeworlds.

The Main Homeworld of Kamino and its Cloneworld Counterparts were a remote water planet. The world's oceans held an abundance of life. They were renowned throughout The Known and Unknown Multiverse for its science and production of The Clone Troopers of The Spatio-Temporal Armed Forces (STARS) and often contracted with private security forces and other clients from across The Known and Unknown Multiverse as a way of doing business.

Receiving maximum trade, their imports were well known and famous throughout The Known and Unknown Multiverse as multiple facilities where dedicated to the growing of food. One of The Cloneworlds would be enough to support the population of multiple universal clusters. It is because of this reason that The Clone Troopers of The Spatio Temporal Armed Forces (STARS) were usually assigned to relief duty among the various and diverse universal clusters for aid whenever they were not needed on the battlefield.

There were many advanced cities scattered across the surface of the planet that were built on stilts and many of them were devoted to cloning. They often experienced heavy rain and during some parts of the year was covered with heavy electrical storms due to the manipulation of the atmosphere as a result of advance weather machines that were used for training. During this season, The Clones of The Planet Kamino rode on aiwhas underwater and resurfaced once they were near their intended location as part of their training.

Their are at least four seasons on Kamino.

1.) Spring.

2.) Summer.

3.) Autumn or Fall.

4.) Winter.

Each one of these seasons were specifically chosen for the training of The Clone Troopers of The Spatio-Temporal Armed Forces (STARS) in order to prepare them for the different environments on the battlefield.

Their government is known as The Kaminoan Republic.

They are one of The Members of The Temporal Powers Alliance (TPA).

The Kaminoan Republic is a form of government in which "power is held by the people and their elected representatives". For The Kaminoan Clones, kamino and its Clone Homeworlds are considered as a "public matter", not the private concern or property of the rulers. The primary positions of power within The Kaminoan Republic are attained through the concept of democracy.

Their Prime Minister is a Clone himself.

Prime Minister Shard.

He was once The Clone General of The Army who personally led The 300th Attack Battalion during The Last Great Time War.

The bright and young yellow sun of The Solar System begins to brightened throughout the atmosphere of Kamino almost as if it signaled the arrival of the stars of hope.

The Limiters of West Genetics Academy, Kazuya Aoi, Eugene Thompson, and Abel Rotomaster, had now arrived via transmat transportation at their hidden base of operations that was put in placed in their own solar system which is hidden from plain sight as the entire planet was completely cloaked to prevent any possible sign of panic on the natives of Earth when they discovered a brand new planet hovering about in their system all of a sudden.

There were multiple personnel that were walking by the high-tech corridors of the advance stations of the planet.

Many countless numbers of them carry the exact same face.

The face of the most feared, most ruthless, most effective, most efficient, most famous, most infamous, and most respected bounty hunter in The Galaxy of The Star Wars Verse.

The Mandalorian Bounty Hunter.

Jango Fett.

These clones that were walking on the corridor was significant though.

Their armor looks completely different from any of their other brethren throughout The Known and Unknown Multiverse.

They wore special body armor with maroon coloration — and a backplate of which protected them from all types of ammunition fire whether if it is just simple bullets from Earth, or Terra to those of alien origin, or Dalek Extermination Death Rays. They were usually armed with DC-15O staser rifles and DC-15O stasers pistols. They were distinguished among their brethren by their unique visor gear: synthmesh designed to keep out various and diverse hazards throughout The Known and Unknown Multiverse, such as snow, sand, airborne fungus, and ash among other countless things of the known and unknown variety.

These clone troopers belong to a special type of clone troopers batches.

One of the most famous, most relentless, and most legendary corps in The Spatio-Temporal Armed Forces (STARS).

The 21st Nova Corps of The 4th Sector Army.

Otherwise known as.

The Inter-Universal Marines.

Composed of at least 10 Nonillion Clone Troopers.

During The Last Great Time War, they were involved in critical battles in The Clone Wars Campaign such as The Space-Time Battle of Mygeeto.

They all began to notice the three Limiters who had just arrived via transmat.

A transmat — short for particle matter transmission — was a common technological form of instantaneous transport and many forms and designs existed throughout The Multiversal Clusters of The Whoniverse. It was designed for matter transference: indeed it was a subset of methodologies described as teleportation.

"ATTENTION!"

One of the clone troopers, probably a Clone Trooper Sergeant, cried out as all of them, from the clone troopers to the other military personnel, some of them were non-human, begin to stand in full attention as they all made their proper military salute in proper courtesy and proper respect to the arrival of their generals.

"At ease, soldiers." Eugene said with a rigid tone of reassurance and professionalism as he and his fellow limiters made their own military salute in response to the military salutes of their soldiers.

Everyone let their right hands down as they went back to their assigned posts and duties.

The Time Travelling Limiters let their right hands down as they now begin to walk towards the briefing room.

They walked passed through the advance corridors and rooms, with many countless numbers of them devoted to various and diverse task for the common good of The Known and Unknown Multiverse, as they were greeted by their Clone Troopers and Clone Children Cadets with military salutes out of respect for the passing Generals.

They arrived to the briefing room after a few moments of walking as the blast door begins to automatically open in recognition of their biodata signatures.

RECOGNIZED:

GENERAL EUGENE THOMPSON

GENERAL ABEL ROTOMASTER

GENERAL KAZUYA AOI

Kazuya, Eugene, and Abel begins to look around the briefing room as they spotted 5 of their fellow Limiters who were just on the briefing table that was showing them a hologram map of many universal clusters of interest.

The first Limiter was a young man who was rather tall for someone in his physical age. His true hair is dark black and his eye color is blue. He wears the uniform of Genetics US.

This is Shi-Jing Hong.

The Limiter of Roxanne Elipton.

"The Immortal"

The second Limiter was a young man with dark blond hair, with bangs that was covering left side of his face, and has brown eyes. He wears the standard Limiter uniform of Genetics LDT.

This is Citroen Augustus.

The Limiter of Charles Bonaparte.

"The Young Tempest Phoenix"

The third Limiter was a young man has brown hair and blue eyes. He is seen wearing a standard Limiter uniform of East Genetics.

This is Kyoichi Minase.

The Limiter of Cassie Lockheart.

"The Godspeed of The East"

The fourth Limiter who was a nice and well-dressed young man with short blond hair that covers some of his forehead and dirty green eyes. He wears the standard uniform of Genetics England.

This is Louis L. Bridget.

The Brother of Satellizer L. Bridget.

"The Untouchable Queen."

The Limiter of Holly Rose.

But they weren't alone on the briefing table.

Their were two people alongside them.

The first person was an old gray haired man who wore a black business suit which is composed of a white dress shirt, black jacket, black pants, black underwear, black tie, black socks, and black leather shoes. He was sitting on his black chair viewing classified and REDACTED files of interest in The SCP Foundation Main Headquarters of The Prime Universe of The SCP Verse.

This is Max Walker.

A Member of The O-5 Council.

The second person appears to be a clone who was equipped with modified Phase II Type 10 clone trooper armor, with his particular armor set being considered very distinct. His armor included additional heated pads over the air filtration units on his helmet in order to prevent excessive loss of heat through his helmet's air filtration systems when used in low temperatures and high winds. His helmet was also equipped with a compact and powerful communications antenna on the left side, which allowed him to remain in contact with his superiors even when in heated combat and keep them fully informed of his unit's status. The person's Phase II Type 10 helmet, which he was carrying in his left hand, contained a polarized visor, and as with other Phase II Type 10 helmets, allowed for a better field of view and additional display information on the HUD. Although very similar, the rear of this person's helmet featured sloping backside armor.

This person also donned a kama that was held up by his standard utility belt. The belt usually carried emergency rations, spare parts and ammunition, and grenades. This person also added a pauldron on his right shoulder that was customized in the maroon coloring of The 21st Nova Corps of The 4th Sector Army and held by a cross-strap that went across his chest. A heating system was located on the back of his armor, which augmented the temperature controlled body glove that he wore under his armor.

This person utilized a DC-15O staser rifle, the standard weapon of The Clone Troopers of The Spatio-Temporal Armed Forces (STARS) which he fully trusted. He also occasionally wore a DC-17O hand staser, although unlike his fellow Clone Commanders, he did not usually equip himself with one as part of his combat gear in some cases. This person also utilized a DC-15O staser carbine during combat.

This is Clone Marshall Commander Bacara.

The Clone Marshall Commander of The 21st Nova Corps of The 4th Sector Army of The Spatio-Temporal Armed Forces (STARS).

"OFFICERS ON DECK!"

Bacara cried out in a voice that demanded their full attention as most of them, from the clone troopers to the other military personnel, some of them were non-human, begin to stand in full attention as they all made their proper military salute in proper courtesy and proper respect to the arrival of their generals.

"At ease, soldiers." Eugene said with a rigid tone of reassurance and professionalism as he and his fellow limiters made their own military salute in response to the military salutes of their soldiers.

Everyone let their right hands down as they went back to their assigned posts and duties.

Bacara lets his right hand down in turn as he greeted his generals with the proper decorum.

"It's good to see you again, sirs."

"Same to you, Commander Bacara." Eugene responded in turn as he, Abel, and Kazuya walked towards the hologram maps.

"Sir." Eugene said as he, Abel, and Kazuya saluted Walker who notices them as he turns around from his seat.

"Gentlemen. Good to see you here. Now that your here and everyone is present and accounted for, let's begin with the meeting."

And thus begins the start of the official meeting.

"To start this meeting off, General Thompson, What's the news of the construction of The PD (Pocket-Dimension) Bases throughout your universal cluster?" Walker asked as he looks towards Eugene.

"The construction of the bases are all going just as scheduled, sir. Multiple PD (Pocket-Dimension) Bases have been constructed and are fully operational with the help of The Bearpenters." Eugene responded professionally.

"What about the activity of The NOVA, Commander Bacara?" Walker turns towards The Clone Commander. "Have they still been invading other universes and other planets as usual."

"Yes, sir." Commander Bacara said with a nod as he presses a few buttons on the hologram table to show the universal clusters that are designated with the color red where The NOVA have invaded and made their presence known. "Their presence are still sighted on multiple planets in multiple universal clusters such as The Planet Christophsis of Universal Cluster Timeline A23L and The Planet Ryloth of Universal Cluster Timeline Z345, but we have no reason to worry as of yet sir, seeing as many of our boys have been dealing with them currently as we speak and we have begun to push them back effectively and efficiently with our multi-turret tanks and we made absolutely sure that many of the natives of these planets will remain completely safe and under our protection as we now begin to supply the necessary packages for the food, for the drinks, and other necessities of interest that were to delivered by inter-universal trade as a result of the natives being affected by the surprise invasions of The NOVA that resulted in the lost of many of their homes, cities, and villages."

"Good." Walker nodded as he was pleased with the report. "That's good."

Walker then turns to the other Limiters/Generals.

"Well, then fellas. What goes about on your end in your sides of the world?"

Shi-Jing, Citroen, Kyoichi, and Louis all looked at each other in silence as if they were asking themselves on which person should go first.

After a silent debate between fellow Limiters, Shi-Jing was the first one who volunteered to speak as he turns towards Eugene.

"Well, nothing much on my end as far as I know, sir. Unless you want to count The E-Pandora Project that was being conducted in Alaska by Dr. Scarlett Ohara as of this very moment."

Eugene made a grimaced and cringed expression when Shi-Jing Hong mentioned that accursed project as his hands begin to clench in a fist while breathing in and breathing out in order to control himself.

The E-Pandora Project.

The project that killed one of The E-Pandora, Julia Purpleton.

The project that made every single Pandora of every single nationality fight each other overnight due to their many varied and diverse differences and stances regarding The E-Pandora that was known ad The Pandora Civil War.

The project that triggered The 11th NOVA Clash.

The project that took his beloved Pandora away from him as she sacrificed her life so that one of The E-Pandora, Amelia Evans, and the rest of her fellow E-Pandora, and the rest of his fellow Pandoras and Limiters, could live to fight another day as he remembered that event as clear as day when the snow came down that made everyone feel many emotions of the positive and the negative variety. In Eugene's case, it was both.

The project that forced his beloved Pandora to side with Dr. Scarlett Ohara because she knew that if she of all people were to side on The E-Pandora which she was more than happy to do if it weren't for the delicate circumstances that would force her hand, all of The Pandoras will be targeted and heavily scrutinized by the corrupt leaders of Chevalier, considering that she was The 1st Ranked Pandora in the whole world and that she represents all of The Pandoras throughout the world.

The project that forced his beloved Pandora to side with Dr. Scarlett Ohara, who works for Senator Mark Spencer, the father of Charles Bonaparte and The Under-Secretary of Chevalier.

Chevalier.

That accursed organization that was always a constant thorn on their side and divided all of The Pandoras, weakening their only defenses as The NOVA utterly laid waste towards the entire planet as they utterly annihilated humanity to the brink of extinction to the point where he and his fellow Limiters where the only remaining survivors.

In other words, they were literally the last humans on Earth.

Their leader at this point in the timeline where they were now sent to under orders from The Temporal Powers Alliance (TPA) is Radox Phantomheim.

The Rival of Dr. Gengo Aoi.

Eugene Thompson's own personal enemy and the man that he blamed for the death of his beloved Pandora, the deaths of many of his fellow Pandoras and Limiters, the almost near extinction of humanity, and so much more.

He hated him with a passion because of what he did whether directly or indirectly.

He wanted nothing more than to bring that bastard down from his high position and face justice and retribution for his crimes.

He knew that killing him wouldn't have made a difference since the afterlife of many varieties and diversities actually existed and is an actual thing.

He knew that there was a chance, however slight, of breaking out from the afterlife since many cases where that happened have been fully documented.

There was the de-mat execution that was intended for the worst of the worst since the person who get's executed by de-mat wouldn't be sent to the various and diverse afterlives out there in The Known and Unknown Multiverse but would be rendered to the status of complete non-existence as the person in question will be erased from time and will be sentenced towards The Void where the non-existent dwelled however that was completely banned by The Senate of The Temporal Powers Alliance (TPA) for being too cruel and too overkill of an execution. But that didn't stop some of the members of The Temporal Powers Alliance (TPA) such as The Time Lords of Gallifrey from using de-mat weaponry in order to perform various and diverse task whether in public or in secret in order to preserve the timeline.

Case in Point: The Celestial Intervention Agency (CIA)

Which is why he is to be taken alive and put on trial by The Inter-Dimensional (ID) Court in order to be sentenced to the maximum security prison of The Hades Universe were they kept the worst of the worst in The Known and Unknown Multiverse.

He was also needed to be taken alive because he has vital information regarding the many various and diverse plans of The Committee of 300 across The Known and Unknown Multiverse.

This is their chance to capture him in order to find out what he knows.

For if it wasn't bad enough for him to be directly and indirectly responsible for the reasons that were stated above. He was, unbeknownst to most people including Dr. Gengo Aoi himself, an agent of an organization that once desire nothing more than the total subjugation of humanity in any universe in any multiverse.

The Committee of 300.

The Committee of 300 (300人委員会, 300-nin iinkai), also known as The Illuminati, The Olympians, The Hidden Hand, and various other names, is a secret society with 300 leading members in it multiverse-wide, which for over a Meta-Millennia has plotted multiversal domination, with the goal of a one-multiversal unified government, also known as The Human Cultivation Project or The New World Order.

The Committee has countless front organizations all over The Known and Unknown Multiverse which ensure their complete secrecy in order to control the various and diverse governments from the shadows as the puppet masters who pull the strings. Their nefarious power spreads not only to the politics of all the major political powers of The Lesser/Younger Species, but also towards religion, the economy, science, and military and intelligence agencies, among other countless things.

One of the main goals of The Committee seeks to cull the global human population of many various and diverse worlds into a much smaller number that would be united under one world governments. In the case of their world however, they had other nefarious plans in mind.

They would use their world as a breeding ground for The NOVA, who they would use as weapons of war in order to sell them to the highest bidder across The Spatio-Temporal Black Market to those who are most interested.

They got this nefarious idea from none other than The Daleks and their allies from The Axis Powers when they weaponized The NOVA for use in The Last Great Time War as one among countless disposable mooks. They were a major nuisance at best as far as The Senate of The Temporal Powers Alliance (TPA) were concerned during that Meta-Time of Meta-Times.

It is one of the main reasons why The Temporal Powers Alliance (TPA) gave him and his fellow time travelling Limiters this delicate mission.

To stop The Committee's plans from coming to fruition.

Everyone in the hologram table and those in the control room began to take notice of Eugene's grimaced and cringed expression as Abel begins to call out to him in haste and concern.

"Eugene!"

That sudden begins to wake Eugene up from his dark trip to the memory lane as he noticed the expressions that his comrades and his commander were giving him.

Expressions of worry and concern.

Eugene wanted to alleviate their worry so he said in haste. "I'm alright." He turns back towards Shi-Jing with a reassuring expression. "Please, Shi-Jing. Continue."

Shi-Jing hesitated for a bit before continuing. "Well... anyway, as of this point in the timeline, all of The E-Pandora have been confirmed and verified to be alive and well. Many of The Clone Scout Troopers that I've sent to Alaska have been monitoring them 24/7 and have been reporting back to me for any sign of danger and relevance to their lives as well as that of their love ones in the many different parts of the world all the while me and my other Clone Scout Troopers gather any known and unknown information regarding Chevalier."

"Good." Walker said in a professional tone. "That's good. What about your Pandora? Does she suspect anything?"

"No, sir." Shi-Jing shakes his head. "As far as I know, Roxanne doesn't have any suspicions about what I have been doing with regards to this operation although..." He makes a hesitant look. "One can never really to be too sure when it comes to a Pandora, especially a Pandora who is bonded to you by Baptism."

Eugene and the other Limiters gave him an understanding look.

They knew all to well on how hard it is to hide what they were actually doing from their beloved Pandoras considering the fact that their senses were linked to each other.

They knew all to well on the various and diverse risks of this operation.

They knew all to well but that never mattered to them in the slightest bit.

The Doctor has been pulling a few strings lately in order to maintain their secrecy so they should be safe and in the clear for the moment but they knew that they were just delaying the inevitable for it was only a matter of time when they would be found out by their Pandoras.

Walker nodded at Shi-Jing's Report as he then turns towards Citroen. "What about you, General Augustus. Whats on your side of the world."

Citroen responded in turn out of professional courtesy. "Nothing really of import, sir. Just sticking towards my Pandora as always. She sometimes calls her father, Senator Marks Spencer, from her phone whenever she had free time. She doesn't really suspect a change in my behavior much due to the fact that I have always treated her the same since 10 years ago from my own perspective, although to be absolutely sure, I try to make myself as less suspicious as possible in order not to draw any suspicion because I know exactly how my Pandora operates."

"Is their any known and unknown information that you have found out regarding Senator Marks Spencer." Walker asked as he wanted to make absolutely sure that Senator Marks Spencer was not an agent of The Committee of 300 like Radox Phantomheim.

"He's clean, sir, surprisingly enough despite his controversial reputation so you don't have to worry. I made the pain staking effort of checking it for myself personally since I manage to break into his office when no one was looking during the night as I gather any known and unknown intel about the various and diverse secret projects that the corrupt members of Chevalier have been cooking up as of late. I would not deny however that Senator Spencer is a harsh, driven man who runs any operation he oversees with an iron fist. He undertakes any project deemed controversial, as we all know by now, he's notorious for playing the villain 'for the greater good'. Though his methods would be deemed outrageous, he deems them necessary in order to protect mankind from The NOVA threat. We also know that he believes surely but firmly that The Chevalier is almighty and incorruptible, and that The Pandora should not be entitled to their own opinion and simply follow The Chevalier's instructions. In my personal opinion, this stance is hypocritical at best, as he initially refused to allow his adoptive daughter, my Pandora, to become a Pandora, despite her own wishes and abnormally high compatibility rate that was discovered. His solution to most problems is to dispose of any obstacles, and will even resort to some shady measures, all to destroy opposition. I don't think I need to remind you and everyone else on this briefing of what happened when someone decides to oppose him such as Elizabeth Mably when she attempted to raise awareness of The Chevalier's actions regarding The E-Pandora, he had her put into an electric chair and ruined her family company with a manufactured financial scandal. After The Mark IV Incident, he ordered that all the first generation E-Pandora be quietly disposed of, as he believed that they knew too much." Citroen said as he detailed his report.

"For the greater good my a**" Eugene and the others thought gravely as they didn't need to be reminded of that hypocritical man who had done more harm than good in their past, or was it the future?

As Professor Paradox, Member of The Multiverse League of Extraordinary Gentleman and Ladies, and General of The Spatio-Temporal Armed Forces (STARS) once said:

"Time travel makes verb tenses so confusing."

"If I may speak for a moment sir." Eugene asked permission from Walker as he looks towards sir.

"Speak." Walker said.

"Senator Spencer may not work for The Committee of 300 but he is still a known liability, one that we must not underestimate or take likely seeing as his actions have major consequences in the history of our universe and considering the fact that he believes Chevalier to be infallible which would be problematic to say the least as this type of mindset would be vulnerable to The Committee." Eugene said all of this like that of a devil's advocate.

"That may be so, Eugene, but still, he may be a man who is flawed to the core of his beliefs but it cannot be denied that he is one of the only rare few good, and I say this loosely, good members that aren't corrupt and he is still trying his best for the good of humanity despite his flaws, that, and the fact that he is the father of my Pandora and I have no doubt that if he were to order my Pandora to do something, she will do it as she loves and honors her father too much so as much as possible, I rather not have to fight my Pandora as I care for her far too much and that I shouldn't let her experience the pain of her father going to prison for the second time." Citroen said.

"So what do you think should be the correct course of action, General Augustus?" Walker asked his General regarding on how they should deal with Senator Spencer.

"If I were to propose a solution, sir. I think it would be more beneficial to us in the long run if he were to come to our side and see from our point of view. If we could show him undeniable evidence and undeniable proof of the corruption that is found in Chevalier and give him information regarding The Committee of 300, then maybe, just maybe, we could gain a valuable ally and spy within Chevalier itself and it would be far more easy to gather intel seeing as Senator Spencer is The Under-Secretary of Chevalier and has major political power in the world."

Eugene and the others were in agreement at their fellow Limiter and General's answer.

Walker nodded at the answer that was given by his General as he was satisfied with the answer as he turns towards Kyoichi.

"What about you, General Minase? What's on your side of the world?"

Kyoichi shakes his head.

"Nothing important has been going on my end really, sir. No sign of any NOVA activity so far so were still in the clear, for now anyway. As with regards to my Pandora, I don't exactly know if Cassie suspects something considering that she hasn't really said anything with regards to my behavior as of late."

"Behavior?" Eugene raised his right eyebrow. "What could you possibly mean-." That was when he realized what Kyoichi was trying to tell him as his widened slightly. "Oh! You didn't..."

"I did." Kyoichi nodded in confirmation at his fellow Limiter and General. "I just confessed to Cassie in advance seeing as we all know that time is not always on our side so I figured, why not take the risk, and so I did, and after some time she accepted surprisingly enough."

"Oh!." All of The Limiters reacted at that.

"You have my congratulations, then, General Minase." Walker said in a pleased tone as he was happy for his General and that it was about damn time in his opinion seeing as their not getting any younger which is ironic all things considered.

"Thank you, sir" Kyoichi said with a nod and a smile.

Walker then turns towards Louis.

"What about you, General Bridget. Is there any known and unknown information that you have gathered about The Committee with the help of your connections to in the business world."

Louis begins his report.

"Well, nothing interesting has been happening in the business side of the world as of late as it appears to be very quiet for the moment besides a few shady dealings in the black market here and there. As far as my Pandora is concerned though, she seems to be a little suspicious with regards to my 'strange' behavior as of late. If anything, I don't know if it is because I have been treating her right this time or if I was usually not in Genetics England but I was conducting business transactions for my family while gathering any intel that could aid us in this operation or the fact that I have been sneaking out from our bed at night most of the time as I study all of the information that I gathered so far from my desk."

"Do you think there's a slight possibility that she might think that your cheating on her." Kazuya said in good humor to which the other Limiters that were present were trying very hard not to laugh while Walker and Commander Bacara had a knowing smile that was present on both of their faces.

"Ha, ha." Louis said in sarcasm. "Very funny, Kazuya. But just so you know, I don't think it's anything like that." He then made a hesitant look. "I think."

"Well, in any case." Walker said in a professional tone. "Now that the official reports are done, what's left now is that we need to assess on how we are to deal with the following events to come."

The Limiters couldn't help but grimaced at that.

There was a lot that they needed to assess.

Starting with their first problem.

Miyabi Kannazuki.

"The Limiter Eater"

One of the few Pandora who would become a definite problem for all of them, especially for Kazuya himself seeing as he was her official target back then in the past timeline and would be a possible target of her choosing once again. Even though they managed to prevent Satellizer's Rank from getting moved from 1st Rank to 2nd Rank, they still can't take their eyes off of Miyabi for one single second since they knew that she has very great interest when it comes to new freshman students and would likely choose Kazuya as her primary target regardless. Luckily enough, Kazuya can handle himself just fine due to all the years of training on Kamino and if worst comes to worst, he can use his new found skills and abilites of The Force to take Miyabi and her three Limiters down out cold, but the problem with that is that he can't exactly use his skills and abilities in The Force in public since it won't take long before someone rats him out to the entire school. Rumors are very dangerous in their line of work. They knew that all too well from personal experience. They knew all too well that sometimes, a ripple creates a much larger tidal wave. Time can be very unpredictable after all.

"As of this moment forward, Gentleman." Walker said in a professional and sure tone as he puts both of his hands in the hologram table as he looks towards each one of The Limiters. "Operation Celsius and Fahrenheit has now officially just begun."
