Random Trivia: Night's weapon was originally intended for Aero, who was originally an silent assassin type character.


The Assault team charge through the halls, destroying anything in his path. The alarm is sounded and the blast doors are sealed. The test subjects would teleport to the reactor, but they don't know where it is to open the second portal.

"Shadow, the doors." Light says.

Shadow places his hand on the blast door. The door begins to be dissolved into purple smoke. Behind the door is three guards.

"Brass, rush them." Light orders.

Brass tackles one of them and throws him into another. Shadow blasts the last one with a purple beam from his finger. The beam penetrated the man's aura, armor, clothing, and body, leaving a small hole in his chest. The Assault team comes across another blast door.

"Stand back." Shadow says.

Shadow creates a tiny ball of purple energy and tosses it at the door. The energy ball rolls across the floor for a few seconds before exploding, obliterating everything in the blast radius. Light feels Stealth teams aura signal to signify tha there job is finished. Night flares his aura to tell the stealth team to regroup with the Assault team.

"How are we supposed to find the main reactor again?" Volt whines.

"Simple," Silicon says as he points to power conduits, "these are power conduits. They are transferring power from the main reactor to across the ship, we simply follow the conduits back towards their source."

Volt nods to show he understands and the Assault team continue their push.


-Present Day-

The Ghosts regroup and watch as Rubine's airship flies overhead. The ship is cloaked, but the Ghosts' genetic modification allow them to see the airship.

"That cloaking tech..." Silicon begins.

"It's the same type used in the Atlesian Assassin." The Rider states.

"The same type made by Umbra." Silicon says.

"What?" The Rider asks.

"They were made a few months after you were removed." Silicon says.

The airship fires a beam from a cannon on its underside. The beam burns Where? into the ground in front of the Ghosts.

"Home base." The Rider says.

The airship turns and begins to fly towards the Umbra facility on Menagerie. Onyx opens a portal to the destination.

"Camo, hold position in case Rubine tries something." The Rider orders.


After a long wait, Rubine's airship finally came into view. The airship deployed androids. They drop to the ground surrounding the Ghosts.

"Maybe we should have brought our drones and airship." Volt says.

"Don't underestimate us." Brass says.

"Don't overestimate us either." Volt responds.

Rubines voice echoes from the airship.

"Now that I've granted your request on battle grounds. I expect you to try your best, so when you die I know that I am truly superior." Rubine says.

"The crystal is in the Shadow Zone, where you will never reach it." The Rider states.

"Oh, don't be so sure, I have my ways and knowledge you don't." Rubine states.

"Like what?" Brass asks confidently.

"What happened during that month." Rubine states.

The Ghosts stay silent due to the shocking news.

"The Shadow Zone existed at the beginning of time, Umbra merely found the means to weaponize it. You learned the truth so Umbra erased your memories." Rubine states.

"Bullshit." Brass says.

"Wouldn't be the first time Umbra lied to us." The Rider states.

"Hold on, you actually believe this?" Volt asks.

"Aero and Shadow confirm it." Onyx states.

"Um... What?" Volt says.

"Our souls exist in the Shadow Zone. So when we die, our 'spirit' goes there." Light explains.

"Like a ghost?" Brass asks.

"Essentially, however there is little scientific knowledge to explain it." Silicon answers.

"I've seen Shadow and Aero's ghosts and we all know that our visual memory is perfect." The Rider states.

"But that doesn't mean we can't see things." Volt argues.

"Okay, enough small talk... Prepare to die." Rubine says.

The androids activate and begin to engage the Ghosts.

"Pair off, watch eachothers backs." The Rider orders.

The Ghosts pair off with their twins, leaving Light and Onyx as the remainder. The androids that engaged the Ghosts are comprised of Atlesian Knights and Umbra's security androids. Rubine use the security codes Onyx stole to steal and reprogram the Atlesian Knights.


Brass and Volt stay back to back as the spin and shot the androids surrounding them. The androids start to close in on the two, so they begin using melee combat. Brass uppercurs an android into the air. Volt jumps in the air and cuts the android in half. Volt lands on an android that was about to shoot Brass from behind.

"Thanks buddy!" Brass says.

Volt shoots another android that is about to shoot Brass.

"That's two you owe me now." Volt says.

"You still owe me twenty six." Brass states.


Silicon dodges the androids attacks while Flame strikes them with his Phoenix Wrath.

"Will you hit them already!" Flame yells.

"I'm analyzing them." Silicon states.

Flame slams his staff onto the ground, creating a shockwave of fire. Flame use his semblance to maneuver the fire into three fireballs. Flame sends the fireballs at into the androids, destroying a large amount of them.


Onyx and Light fight back to back. Light jabs an android with the base of his shield. Onyx jumps over Light, killing the android behind the one Light jabbed. Then Light jumps over Onyx, impaling the next android, holding his shield up to create a platform. Next Onyx slides over the shield and decapitates the next android.

"Onyx, I have a plan." Silicon says.

"What is it?" The Rider asks.

"The P.O.K.E." Silicon answers.

"Hell yeah!" Brass states.

Brass punches the ground, creating a huge explosion. The explosion destroys the remaining androids and leaves the Ghosts on the ground, in the wreckage. Onyx and Light are the only ones still standing, waiting as the smoke clears.

"Dude! Give us some warning before you use the damn punch." Volt says.

"Seriously, say something like 'hey', 'look out', or..." Flame begins.

"Incoming!" Silicon yells.

The cannon on the underside of Rubine's airship begins to charge it's blasts. Onyx finally recognizes the airship.

"That's the FAC Requiem." The Rider states.

"So that gun is..." Volt begins.

"The Fusion Cannon." Light finishes.

"It has a blast radius of 30 miles when fully charged." Silicon states.

"What's the blast made off?" The Rider asks.

"The energy fromfusion of multiple types of dust." Silicon answers.

"Then it can be absorbed." The Rider states.

Energy absorbtion is Volt's semblance.

"I can't absorb something that strong!" Volt cries.

"You're not going to... I am." The Rider states.

The Fusion Cannon's charge nears completion.

"Why don't we just, I don't know, TELEPORT AWAY!?" Flame asks.

"The blast radius will destroy the island due it's radiation." Silicon explains.

"Not our problem." Flame says.

"Go. I will try to absorb it." The Rider says.

"You'll have to do it in the air for the best results." Silicon states.

"Brass, I need a boost." The Rider states.

Brass kneels down and prepares to launch Onyx as the Fusion Cannon completes it's charge. Onyx takes a few steps back as the others leave through a portal. Onyx uses Ruby's semblance to super speed towards Brass, who launches him into the air. Onyx uses Weiss semblance to create glyphs to use as platforms as he gets in the guns line of fire. The Fusion Cannon fires, blasting Onyx, shattering his glyph and forcing him towards the ground. Onyx watches as his aura steadily decreases as he approaches the ground. Then Onyx activates Volt's semblance, absorbing the energy. Onyx still feels the pain of the blast, but he can take it. Onyx aura reaches zero and the blast starts to destroy Onyx's armor, slowly melting it. The blast starts dissolves as Onyx reaches the ground, leaving a crater in his wake. Rubine's airship left before the smoke cleared, but Onyx is still there. He gets up, most of his clothing destroyed. Limping as he opens a portal to the airship.

"Ghosts... I'm... on my way back to... the airship." The Rider says, his voice filled with pain.

He is about to go through the portal, when a sniper fires, the bullet hits Onyx in his lower abdomen. Onyx's aura hadn't regenerated so he was unprotected. Onyx collapses and as his eyes slowly closes, he sees Light's foot.
