The sun rising beneath the clouds in the dystopian city as people were waking up Crash Bandicoot groaned in his bed. He shakes his head. He put his feet on the floor. Then something was onto him. it began to glitch. Crash knew it. One of his eyes were surged from that power came with an advanced cybernetic eye. He cannot save the city and the world he has to save himself from threats within. He walked out. "Crash Bandicoot…" he looked around there was nothing there. "That power it must have been that…." It began attacking him. Skip Edison was standing there. He was searching. "You must be Crash right?" He nodded. "Skip Edison at your service." He continued.

At the same time a group of rouge people are planning to counterattack. As Crash went to the same block, he finds that a man-croco hybrid staired right at him he had a head of a dingo. "No. You're…. It can't be…" images began flooded into his mind. "Don't you remember me. It's Dingodile." The hybrid said. "Mate. I have been searching for you." Dingodile then walked towards him. he has changed since the disturbance in the spacetime continuum. He has been tracking rouge humans since. "Yeah. I know you." Crash said shaking his head. He looked before walking further down the block.

The hash wind blowing his face he still has the cyber glasses on his face a futuristic car parked there while stood behind the car he looked up no one was in the driver's seat. He accidentally activated the car as it opened automatically, he got in and the door shut. The front view itself shows the buildings. While sitting there a thought came to his mind "I got to find answers before something happens to me." He said to himself. He drove for several minutes. He got out of the car. There are echoes from the rim. He can see it and feel it. Something around him sends him down to his spine. "What the hell?"

Distant sounds were echoing across the area. He continued to walk. "Aw man." The buildings in this block are not tall as the others. He must find a purpose in life. but what? He is destined to fulfill the purpose. Everyone has one. Skip walked beside him. a beeping sound was heard. "CPPD advises to travel beyond the city limits should proceed caution." He was meant to be here. He has a destiny. He was even chosen. He still has the chip. It is a part of him. he can hear it. "You are a cyberian. You are a part of us."

"If this is the new world. I must live in it." Crash said. "I do." His eyes glowed. This world known as Cyberia is a place where humanity had chrome in their bodies. They are already infused with cybernetic energy. Crash decided to embrace it all. He embraced the new technology. He has allies around him. but he also encountered enemies as well. He is going to chip in. "To make to the next level kid. You have to train hard." He looked at Crash. He have no other choice.

Headed to his cyber consciousness Crash is in a training combat ground he can see the drill person standing in front of him. he walked towards it. "This combat simulation…." He continued to speak to the human. Crash began training. He uses guns, knives, and other weapons. After several minutes to an hour, he became stronger, smarter and a more serious being. However, Crash used cyberware as well. His life may never be the same.

Shaking his head Crash was back from the combat ground. "You must have been preparing hard." Skip said. "I know." Crash said. A thought came to his mind. He went to the apartment megabuilding H09 he was staying in. The room he was in now was filled with books. And some are filled with languages that he didn't understand. Containing knowledge of the city and its natural resources. He began reading. Afterwards his eyes blinked. He then looked at Skip. "So are you in or not." "Yes." Crash said as he put his hand on Skip's hand.
