The four arrived at the tower inside.

"Teleportation into the tower successful. I'm reading Avi's transmission signal from the apex of the radio tower." Call said.

"Sorry to make you guys climb it on foot, but we have a plan to get you up there faster. Just hoof it for now." Shade said.

"Dadadada! We now go live as our dashing heroes attempt to climb up this radio tower to face the bad guy. Will they succeed or will they perish in flames? This is Avi news keeping track. Bwahahaha!" Avi said.

"He's really getting into this whole news thing…" Linkle said,

"Yeah, even though i designed him to be a bot for aerial combat and recon, he can be a bit of a showoff." White said.

"Lets hope we stop him. His excessive talking annoys me to no end." Ray said as her anger was building up.

They got on an airship to ride to the top. That was when Avi appeared.

"There he is Linkle! Give him a bomb arrow to his face for what he did!" Hope said.

"On it." Linkle said aiming at Avi as she fired and Avi dodged.

"Whoa. We have some feisty fighters up here today, ladies and gents. Lets see how they handle these numbers." Avi said as flying robots appeared.

A laser went through them all as one bullet bounced off each and destroyed them. It was shade on another platform who fire.

"Ah nuts, SHade! Always the one to make me experience Technical difficulties. We'll be back soon." Avi said flying away.

"Dang. Sorry, guys. Couldn't hit him." Shade said.

"No worries, we'll get him at the top." Lincke said.

They scaled the tower more until reaching the top. Avi flew up and floated in front of them.

WARNING!

"Nowhere left to run, Avi! I think its time we cut your show of the air." Linkle said.

"No. The show will go on, cause now...we're live from Tower. Of. Terror!" Avi said.

"You were right, Ray. He is annoying." Linkle said. "Hmm." Linkle said as she sheathed her crossbows.

"Linkle? What are you doing?" Hope asked.

"So, she's planning on trying those out, huh?" Jexi said smiling.

"Hmm. Some secret weapon? A new ability? Let's keep on rolling to see the Linkle secret!" Avi said.

Mighty No. 6: Aviator

"You won't be flying for long." Linkle said as she spun before lightning hit her boots. They were now electrified with wings in the side of them.

"A new weapon?" Hope said in surprise.

"I picked them up on my training trip. Figured they might be Linkle's size." Jexi said.

Linkle ran at Avi as she dealt a swift kick to his head as electricity surged in a burst.

"Winged Boots. Harnessing lighting and the fury of the Cuccos. They unleash very powerful kicks." Jexi said.

"Hey, save some for us!" Beck said Rexelecting into COundershade mode.

Ray equipped her variation and turned on a cloaking. "He wont see me...until its too late."

As Avi and the others fought, Ray appeared from behind.

"What the? I mean… I'm being attacked from behi..GAK!" Avi said as he was slashed in the back.

"Just leave the news broadcasts to the human professionals. You talk way to dramatically." Ray said feeding on half of Avis corrupted cell and gaining a new arm with a propellor. "Variation Code: Aviator obtained."

"Snap out of it...Now!" Beck said. With that, Avi was cured.

"Is that you Beckles? What am I doing up here?" Avi said regaining sense. Beck then gained a body simiar to Avi with his own propellor.

"ReXelection: Aviator. Acquired!" Beck said.

"Alright! Thats all of the Mighty Numbers! Mission complete!" Hope said.

Mission...CLEAR!

"So that Despair fellow impersonated a director for me? And here I thought that job of being a reporter was my big break." Avi said.

"What exactly did Despair want you to report on?" Hope asked.

"The destruction of the worlds when Bat fired the missiles. As well as...a declaration of a universal war." Avi said.

"I knew he was bad, but I didn't think he'd go so far with this." Hope said.

Sanda then came back with Call.

"Ah, Sanda, where you are. Where were you?" White asked.

"Call and I paid a visit to Blackwell's cell, and he told us some interesting info. He wasn't the one who made Ray. Apparently, the Blackwell she was mentioning...is his son." Sanda said.

"He also said someone who resembled Hope visited him as well, asking questions about CherryDyn security as well as past projects." Call said.

"CherryDyn security? What could he want with that?" Hope asked.

"I have an idea. I just sifted through the Xel data. Its….Trinity." White said.

"Trinity? As in the Trinity project? But didn't Dr. Blackwell shut that one down?" Reuniclus asked.

Hope then had an idea. "I think I know what is going on. Ring up Gregory Grahm." Hope said.

As soon as they did, a video call of Gregory appeared.

"Oh, Drs White and Sanda! Have you finished working on who is behind this? It's definitely Blackwell, all evidence points to him." Ghragm said.

"I can see your legs shaking, Graham. Theres something you're not telling us." White said.

"No. It is definitely…" Graham said.

"You can drop the act, Gregory. They know." said a voice behind as Graham moved to reveal Despair. "Hello, my twin."

"Were not twins. SPill it Graham! What have you done?" Hope said.

"Okay, okay! I confess! I restarted Project Trinity in hopes of making more money. Its all for-Oof!" Graham said before Despair kicked him away.

"Such a pathetic coward and weakling. Same as the Mighty Numbers who failed to do my bidding." Despair said. "But, he is right. Trinity is online and is ready for destruction. In fact, she's already begun." he smiled pulling up a picture of the arena being eaten in a mass of xels.

"Whoa…" Hope said.

"The battle coliseum… *gasp* look!" Luffy said as a piece of metal was on Trinitys head in the shape of a badge. It hat the number 9 on it.

"The badge that was supposed to be earned when we were suppose to fight." Hope said.

"That's the least of your concerns. Won't be long before Trinity devours this world, and then, I'm letting her loose on the others too." Despair said.

"Ive had enough of you, Despair. You wanna destroy the world? Well not on my watch! We'll settle this at the Battle Coliseum, all of us against you and trinity. Winner...take… all." Hope said.

"Fine. Under one condition: Hope, you have to battle me on your own. Because you see, I've...stolen a nuclear device." Despair said moving aside to show the missile. "ANd its pointed right at Nohr."

"You bastard! Leave Xander and the others outta this!" Hope said.

"Your pick. Your single life, or the life of a whole kingdom. I'll be waiting." Despair said as the transmission cut.

"Hope… you…" Jexi sadi.

"No. I'll do it. The rest of you, stop trinity and get that badge." Hope said. All nine mighty numbers stared at him. They felt the same way with all of them, Ray included.

"Hope, you are one firey guy. If you kick your copies butt, once this whole tourneaments over, were gonna join you." Pyro said.

"Pyro.." Hope said.

"You really are a cool guy. Chilling with you will be sweet. You just gotta cool of that hot head." Cyro said.

"Cryo…" Hope said.

"Put the zap on that guy! He dezzerves it!" Dyna said.

"Dyna…" Hope said.

"Best crush him here and now than later on." Mic said.

"Mic.."

"Once you take out that terrorist, it would be an honor to fight by your side… Sargent Hope." Bat said.

"Bat.."

"If you need some coverage on the fight, I provide pretty good reporting skills." Avi said.

"Avi.."

"Once you deal with this, my blades are yours." Brand said.

"Brand…"

"I can take him out a mile away if he tries any funny business." Shade said.

"Shade.."

"Hope, you are an inspiration to some modern heroes. We'd support you all the way." Beck said.

"Beck.."

"My skills are yours too, hope. No once could go without someone in communications, correct?" Call asked.

"Call.."

"I thought… that I had no meaning to exist, only to feed. But with you, I can be more than a predator. I can be someone who saves the masses." Ray said.

"Ray…"

"Hope, you really are something. 11 members all in one go, impressive. But first, you gotta show your copy who's boss." Jexi said.

"And we'll deal with Trinity. If she turns out nice too, that makes 12 members. YOu can count on us to help Jexi and the others. Just kick your copy's tail." Beck said.

"You're right. Its time I settled things with Despair once and for all." Hope said.

"Hope." Reuniclus said. "I know nothing I can say can make up for how he acted. But, please, don't make him suffer too much."

"No promises. Its time to end this." Hope said.
