Everyone at the academy was alerted of an attack happening at their own academy. When all of them were warned about what happened, they all hurried into one of the classrooms and gathered for their plan.

"What's going on?" Rin questioned.

"Are we really being attacked?" Serene said.

"I'm afraid so." Chifuyu said as she and Yamada were leading this meeting. "Just moments ago, we were alerted of this attack. Just have a look here." She brought up a map and showed a detection of enemies from all four directions. All of them just knew who it had to be.

"Rogue Nirvana. So, they're taking the fight to us this time." Davis said.

"And it looks like they came in spades." Yamada said. "We've estimated that there enemy forces that number in the hundreds from all directions, possibly a thousand soldiers coming in this direction."

"Nearly a thousand?! How can there be so many?! This is just insane!" Davis said as he couldn't believe that Rogue Nirvana had that many followers.

"We managed to get satellite images and detected what was going on. We've also seen that each of the charges are being lead by one of the Four Heavenly Kings." Chifuyu said. "Each of them is stationed as you would predicted. Suzaku is in the south, Genbu is in the north, Ryudoragon is in the east, and Shirotora is in the west."

"And who wants to bet that they each have their own personal Shadow Units. They're probably even stronger than last time, something like what Sakyo had." Kimi said. They all certainly agreed with what she was thinking.

"It would seem that Rogue Nirvana is entering their endgame, and they are attacking us to do that." Yamada said. "This attack is probably a declaration to all of the world. By bringing down the school, they are trying to tell the world that the era of the I.S. is over."

"Of course, we're not just going to stand here and take it." Chifuyu said. All of them were agreeing with that as well. Rogue Nirvana is a dangerous organization that needs to be stopped before more and more people get hurt.

"One thing, Miss Orimura. How are we suppose to defeat an enemy this large?" Sierra questioned. "We are only a handful of people. We can't possible defeat an army on our own. Not to mention that they probably do have weapons designed to fight against our units."

"The numbers should not matter." Fria said as she seemed sure they could win. "There are many other important factors that take part in battle. One man could defeat a good portion of an army using the right tactics."

"I'm well aware that we are heavily outnumbered and possibly outgunned, but not just going to stand around and take it." Chifuyu said. "If we can try to get a step ahead of them this time, we can bring down a good portion of their numbers. Besides, I did call for a little help."

"Who?" Ichika questioned.

"We'll get to that later. Right now, we need to come up with our own plan of attack." Chifuyu said. The time has come for them to make their final stand against Rogue Nirvana. If they manage to drive back a force like this, they might be able to bring Rogue Nirvana down for good.

"Since the enemy is coming at us from different directions, our only option is to split the forces we do have and take the enemy on." Yamada said.

"Since each of the forces are being led by one of the Four Heavenly Kings, it's vital that we take them down." Marinda stated. "Taking out the leading commander of an army will cause the army to lose morale. They'll begin to second-guess themselves, unsure what to do, and we can exploit all that doubt."

"That's the idea." Chifuyu claimed.

"Speaking of which, what about Sakyo Qilin?" Davis said as that's the one he wants to defeat the most. "He's the one calling the shots on everything. If we want to bring Rogue Nirvana down for good, we've got to take him down."

"Understandable, Motomiya. However, we have yet to detect the location of where Sakyo Qilin is." Yamada said. "However, it would be to our advantage to bring down the Four Heavenly Kings before bring down Sakyo. Without his elite to help him, it might make things easier for us."

"There is one other thing we've detected." Chifuyu said. "We've detected a base camp that they've set in the woods. It would be beneficial to us to take down that camp as well. Otherwise, some of them will have the chance to regroup and regain their strength and composure. We also believe that Rico Monomia might be there as well." Hearing that her father is close got to Sierra. She now has a chance to finish things with him. "Sierra, seeing as how it is your father, do you want to be the one to head there and bring that base camp down."

"I must." Sierra said as she wasn't going to let this opportunity slip away.

"Very well, but you can't go alone. Neekoso, I want you to go with her and provide support." Chifuyu claimed.

"Roger." Kimi said as she was excited to go.

"As for the rest of you, you're all dividing and conquering." Chifuyu said.

"Roger!" They all said as they were all ready to do battle.

"Wait a minute." Ichika said when he looked to Charlotte. "Charlotte, do you feel well enough to get back in the battlefield?"

"Ichika's got a point. Has your body fully recovered after being shot?" Houki questioned.

"I'll be fine. Now is not the time to be concerned with just me." Charlotte said as she tried to push through whatever her body was feeling and was ready to get back in the action.

"Luckily, you won't be going alone." Chifuyu said. "Since Neekoso and Monomia are heading for that camp, and since Lita is still out of commission, you'll be breaking into teams of three. We're going to need all the firepower we can get and take it to this enemy."

"Who's going where?" Cecilia asked.

"Davis Motomiya, Shinonono, and Boudewig; you three are heading to the west. Trap that white tiger." Chifuyu ordered. "Orimura, Ivakin, and Marinda Motomiya; you three are heading south. Cage that bird. Dunois, Alcott, and Saincloud; I want the three of you to head east. Make sure you slay that dragon. That just leaves the Sarashiki sisters with Fang. You three will be heading up north and make some stew out of that turtle. Once you have defeated your enemies, I want you all to come back and regroup here. Is that all understood?"

"Yes!" They all said. They were all ready for this war with Rogue Nirvana to come to an end.

"Neekoso and Monomia, you two better get going before the enemy makes some attempt to stop you." Chifuyu said.

"Got it." Kimi said as she was ready to head out of there now.

"It's time for me to take down my father." Sierra said as she seemed ready for this.

...

Wade

Wade remained in in his mobile lab. He stayed by Lita's side and never left her side. She's been in recovery this whole time, but it looks like she's been doing well. He's also been made aware of what is going on, and now there's no way he's going to leave Lita while she's like this. At that moment, Davis came walking in.

"Hey, Wade." Davis said.

"Davis... I wasn't expecting to see you. I figured you were on your way to beat the enemy to a pulp or something." Wade said.

"I will be, but I wanted to stop by and see Lita first." Davis said. "Figures you are already aware of what is happening. It's Rogue Nirvana again. It looks like they're pulling out all the stops this time."

"A sign that they're ready to finish things off once and for all." Wade said. Davis walked over and stood right over Lita.

"How's Lita been doing?" Davis questioned.

"Her body has been recovering well, but she hasn't awakened yet." Wade said. "I'm worried any fights could disrupt her healing process. I've got make sure everything goes well until she's fully recovered."

"Wade, don't worry about it." Davis said. "Lita is one tough girl, so she's not going to let some small explosion take her easily." Davis believes that Lita will pull through, but he is about to go into battle and is saying his prayers. He placed his hand over her and tried his best to keep his hopes up. "Lita, we're about to enter battle with Rogue Nirvana. It looks like this might be the big one. We'll be back as soon as we can, and I hope you'll be up by the time we do." Taking a piece of his friend with him, Davis walked away and was ready to go into battle. What neither of them knew or saw was that Davis' voice reached Lita and caused her hand to twitch.

...

The South

Senka Suzaku was leading his forces from the south. They all made their way towards I.S. Academy, marching through the streets. A whole army of Rogue Nirvana fighters made their way through with innocent people taking cover inside some buildings. They all watched with caution on what might be happening, but if they did know what was coming and what was going to happen, they would have ran for the kills. As for Senka, he enjoyed what was coming, the anticipation of what is to come, as he just sat in his own little wheeled vehicle. It was like how a might general hides a horse into battle.

"Master Suzaku, we are receiving messages from the other three kings."

"Let me have it." Senka said as he took the messages and holographic screens appeared in front of him. "How is it going?"

"Going well. I'm traveling by sea and my ships are set to go." Byako claimed.

"All four sides are closing in at the academy. There is no escape for them." Iramin said.

"As if they would actually run. I don't think they'll be intimidated by our forces so easily." Seyu said.

"You're probably right, but we're ready for them this time." Senka said as he held up his brace that contained his new Shadow Unit. "It's time for the real fun to begin and take I.S. Academy off the face of the map." The Four Heavenly Kings were ready for battle and weren't going to go down without a fight. In fact, neither side will.

"Hold that thought. It looks like they're already coming my way." Byako claimed.

...

The West

Byako's forces were coming in from the water as they had boats heading closer and closer to the city. Once Davis and the others became aware of what was happening, the teams were sent out to intercept the enemy and take them down before too much damage could be done to the city. Davis, Veemon, Houki, and Laura all landed down on a bridge and could see them coming.

"This is crazy. They're actually coming in by the water to attack us?" Davis said.

"Looks like it, and they certainly have a lot of ships out there." Houki said.

"They want to have us completely surrounded. All those ships together have hundreds of soldiers." Laura said.

"Davis, do you really think we can take on all of them?" Veemon questioned. "Miss Orimura said we were going to have backup, but there is no one else here." It did look rather bad. It was four against hundreds, and there was no sign of any assistance. As for Byako, he was already made aware of their arrival. He sat at the top of a mass and spotted them with a pair of binoculars.

"The fools actually came to try and stop us? How foolish can they be?" Byako said. "Well, at least it will give me a chance to try my new Shadow Unit." The ships were getting closer and closer, with Davis and the others a little unsure on what to do.

"Think we can take all of them?" Houki said.

"We have to." Davis said as he stood ready to fight. They all readied themselves, thinking the enemy was going to strike first. However, something they didn't expect happened. An explosion came from the water and blasted one of the ships.

"What just happened?!" Byako said as none of them expected something like that. As one of the ships began taking on water and sink, something emerged out of the water. Something none of them expected, but Davis was glad to see who it was.

"You can't expect to be out at sea without their being some hazards."

"Submariemon?!" Davis said. It looks like help has arrived, help from Davis' old friends.

...

Davis: I can't believe this! Chifuyu called in my old friends for help! That's great because we're going to need all the help we can get. I'm also glad that I got to see my old friends again. However, it looks like they're not the only ones making some sort of comeback. That sneaky tiger has a few tricks up his sleeve.

Next Time: Return, Good and Bad

I hope I get to see Kari again.
