Early in the morning, Luna sat under a cherry blossom tree. She began recalling everything that happened at U.A. High. After enrolling in the hero course, she and her classmates faced a series of incidents that put them up against the worst of the worst. Especially three mysterious relatives that inherited a secret Quirk called "Divine Trinity" just like Luna and her mother Tarot Chariot.
Despite all of that, all Class 1-A officially got their provisional hero licenses. While they had their hands full at the end of their first year, they innocently failed to realize the evil quietly growing in the shadows until it became too strong for any of them to ignore.
Luna stared at the fallen flower petals, knowing that today's the day for a hardcore battle against the two groups of familiar villains.
It's been a whole week since Rhina worked behind the scenes within the Amarante Coven, gathering secret information and informing Tarot Chariot about the coven's secret location and plan of attack. The same week that she received the hint tip "hospital" from Hawks and the Safety Commission.
Inside a bluish-gray multistory warehouse, Rhina and Coppelia entered the main room, where Aurora, Nightshade, Opalite, Titania, Triton, Galatea, Zircon, and Charon gathered together. Then, they turned their heads to see Daku standing before them.
"Where's Oriana, Carina, and Ariella?" Aurora asked.
"They will attend with us shortly." Daku replied. "Here's the status report. My Synthezoids are 100% upgraded from previous testing and ready to go along with my Iron Maidens. They'll follow orders to perfection."
The Amarante Coven is currently split into three groups based on their skills. Sadly, it took me a whole month to figure it out. Rhina thought to herself. First, Aurora is paired up with me and Coppélia. Charon teams up with Nightshade, Zircon, and Opalite. And Titania is with Triton and Galatea. Dr. Daku, on the other hand, will stay in his lab for the time being. And the three empresses are preparing themselves to shine upon the world somewhere in the airship.
"Thanks to our four-month training and planning, we cannot afford to be far behind from our task." Daku added.
Also, not only they want the annihilation of the heroes, they also want to annihilate the entire Paranormal Liberation Front. Rhina added. In other words, once Shigaraki and his army are gone, the Amarante Coven will rise up to end Japan.
"With Rhina, Aurora, and Coppelia our eyes and ears and the rest of us being the muscle, we will take down any hero who stands in our way and finish off the Paranormal Liberation Front so we can finally see our empire rise up once again." Daku continued. She then let out a sinister smile. "It's going to be quite a party."
Oriana, Carina, and Ariella suddenly walked into the main room, where everyone turned their heads at them. The empresses are wearing a long black cloak that is lined with signature color inside and dark shade of signature color fur at the bottom. Their cloak has a golden pendant that connects with the high black collar.
"Thank you all for attending." Oriana spoke. "We won't underestimate heroes anymore. We'll use all the power we can get to destroy Tarot Chariot and her legacy. Our next fight will be her last."
Only four of Six Sages and Zircon formed wicked smiles. Charon looked away with a frown while Nightshade looked down with a skeptical face.
I'm too late! Rhina thought in high alarm. If I don't take action now, it'll be the end of Japan for all citizens and the heroes.
In a conference room, Tarot Chariot had gathered her trusted allies for an important meeting about a decisive battle coming upon them. Sitting around the conference table are Morganite, Estrella, Solaria, Celena, Amazonite, Vondergeist, Zodiac Moon, White Queen, and Black King.
Tarot Chariot already projected three pictures of her family on the screen.
"Oriana, Carina, and Ariella. Quirk: Divine Trinity. They are the empresses of the Amarante Empire. As the highest-ranking matriarchs, everyone within the empire is devotedly loyal to them." Tarot Chariot explained. "My mother Oriana is the superior leader who held complete control of the empire. My oldest sister Carina was in charge of the military while my other sister Ariella oversaw both diplomacy and rule enforcement."
"But what about your status?" White Queen asked.
"As the youngest, I was beneath my sisters and my mother. Like it or not, I was left no choice but to obey their every order." Tarot Chariot replied.
"And how do you know about their current objective?" Zodiac Moon asked.
"After the Shatrix redeemed their actions, Rhina volunteered to receive information undercover." Tarot Chariot answered. "According to her robot, we got evidence on the empire's hideout and the piece of their plan."
Tarot Chariot pulled up a photo of a squad of Synthezoids.
"No way...!" Celena muttered in shock.
"Dr. Daku have perfected them!" Solaria exclaimed in surprise.
"But they're just robots." Black King said dismissively.
"But they're not just any robots." Estrella replied. "Before my sisters and I switched sides, Dr. Daku developed these robots that can morph their arms into any formidable weapon. Drills, buzzsaws, large curved blades, you name it."
"It's going to be a challenge to arrest the entire Amarante Coven." Tarot Chariot said. "That's why I developed a plan that will split us into two teams to face this situation."
Tarot Chariot pulled up a picture of the two teams on the screen. One team included Tarot Chariot, Morganite, and their sidekicks on the left side of the screen while the other team included Black King, White Queen, Amazonite, Zodiac Moon, Vondergeist, Estrella, Solaria, and Celena on the right side.
"My team will secure civilian evacuation and rescue and the other team will storm the Naboo Armory, which is considered the Amarante Coven's hideout." Tarot Chariot explained. "In addition, hero course students will be deployed as logistical support for both teams. Once the fighting begins, we expect resistance from the Amarante Coven and the Synthezoids. Overall, we'll take them all out in one sweep!"
With that, all the Heroes departed with fierce determination.
White Queen's team stood on the front lines by the Naboo Armory. The two hero course students that are joining them are Selene and Diana.
"Right now, the enemy has an entire robotic squad inside that warehouse." White Queen said to the pro heroes, the sidekicks, and the U.A. students. "If we take them all out, they won't have anywhere to escape. But also, keep a sharp eye for any sneak attack."
Sensing that Solaria and Celena are worried, Estrella placed both comforting hands on her sisters' shoulders. Comet and Lilith smiled confidently at them. Solaria and Celena took notice as they nodded their heads.
Diana cracked her knuckles in preparation while Selene placed her hands on her hips as she narrowed her eyes at the mansion.
"You ready for this?" Selene asked.
"Oh, trust me. I'm ready. This is gonna be fun." Diana grinned.
Meanwhile, Tarot Chariot's team stood on the top of the Might Tower. The two hero course students that are joining them are Luna and Aisha, who huddled together.
"How do you feel about this operation?" Aisha asked Luna.
"Well, this operation is pretty large-scale." Luna said. "The most important function in this mission is pure solid coordination. So, let's get the job done."
Luna nodded in agreement.
Suddenly, Tarot Chariot received an alert from her magic card in between her fingers.
"White Queen's team is moving!" Tarot Chariot cried out. "Everyone knows the plan! Split up and evacuate residents by every block! Let's move!"
Tarot Chariot, Luna, Aisha, Morganite, Nefertari, the Roulette Twins, and the Shiroibara Quartet sprinted over the tall tower and headed towards evacuating the citizens.
It's finally starting. Luna thought.
At the same time, White Queen and her squad proceeded with the mission and raided the warehouse. A squad of Synthezoids suddenly showed up and charged forward with morphing weapons as their arms. But Amazonite instantly disabled the Synthezoids with psychokinetic energy, allowing Black King and Zodiac Moon to destroy all of them with their Quirks in an instant.
"Stardust, you, Chakra, and the Shatrix scouted ahead for Daku!" White Queen ordered the Shatrix. "No doubt this area may become a battlefield."
"We're on it!" Selene nodded.
Selene, Diana, Estrella, Solaria, Comet, Lilith, and Celena sprinted forward, leaving White Queen and the rest of her squad behind.
Dr. Daku walked casually down the hallway.
"Things are progressing nicely." Dr. Daku said with a proud grin. "Empress Oriana will be in her full strength with a surprise gift I've made for her. Oh, I can't wait. Dr. Kyudai Garaki's work will be nothing compared to mine."
"I won't count on it!"
Dr. Daku stopped walking with a gasp. He quickly turned his head around to see White Queen and her squad walking up towards him. He stared at the heroes with a horrified expression. It didn't take him long enough to know that the heroes are here to arrest him and stop the coven's plan of conquest.
"So, you must be the Synthezoids' creator and the Amarante Coven's technological scientist. Accept your fate and surrender." White Queen demanded.
Dr. Daku glared in anger at the unexpected appearance of the heroes. Both of his hands began to glow in bright cyan energy. Before he can have a chance to strike, Amazonite immobilized him with her psychokinetic energy.
"As expected, you offered every advanced technology to Oriana and one of her daughters as well as the Shatrix." White Queen noted. "That also must be how you artificially created Shigaraki's clone Nico. Isn't that right?"
Dr. Daku stared at the heroes with a fierce glare.
"I'll have to admit. Having the expertise of robotics and cloning is pretty amazing." Zodiac Moon admitted as she placed her hands on her hips. "Imagine the world of science reunite with evolution."
Vondergeist then walked up in front of Dr. Daku.
"From the schematics we've been able to capture, your Synthezoids are programmed to follow orders from your commands. And without you, they are nothing but empty toys." Vondergeist said. "To prepare to fight the Synthezoids, we have to secure the source."
Meanwhile, the police force began reporting the current status from four teams inside the Police HQ Message Control Center.
"Team Endeavor has entered the Jaku Hosptial. Eraser Head used Erasure on Garaki's Quirk and they captured him. Patient evacuation is at 97%." A policewoman reported.
"Team Edge Shot is getting close to Gunga Mountain Villa. There's no movement by the enemy and no counterattack." A policeman added.
"At Jaku Hospital, Mirko's gone ahead and has just entered a secret path from the morgue." Another policewoman spoke.
"Team Morganite has entered the Naboo Armory. Amazonite captured Dr. Daku with her Quirk." Another policeman added. "Team Chariot is under civilian evacuation. Also, no movement nor counterattack from the enemy."
"Stardust, Chakra, and the Shatrix have entered a secret path from the chamber room inside the Naboo Armory." The third policeman stated.
Back in the warehouse, Dr. Daku looked down at the floor in silence from Amazonite's psychokinetic grasp.
"Why so quiet? No big talk from the coven's greatest scientist?" Black King asked with heavy sarcasm.
While Selene, Diana, and the Shatrix busted their way through the chamber room, they suddenly came across a hoard of Synthezoids swarming in their path.
"Mother, we've got incoming! There's Synthezoids everywhere!" Selene reported to White Queen through her earpiece.
"What?!" White Queen exclaimed through her earpiece.
Just then, a Synthezoid with mechanical upper arms suddenly emerged from the floor. It swiftly snatched Dr. Daku from Amazonite's psychokinetic clutches. White Queen and her squad looked equally shockingly stunned.
"You may have figured out my involvement with my Synthezoids and the Amarante Coven, but it's a good thing I've created a back-up plan." Dr. Daku commented. He took out a grayish-white octahedral device in her hand and twisted the device in 180° position. The device glowed bright cyan and floated above Dr. Daku. It opened a bright cyan oval-shaped portal, ascending the scientist through it. "I'll leave my robots to take care of you provoking Heroes."
The Shatrix's teleportation device?! He's been planning this all along! White Queen exclaimed.
Then, the device then fell onto Dr. Daku's palm and instantly closed the portal.
The muscular Synthezoid started charging forward. He transformed his arms into razor-sharp blades and proceeded to attack the Heroes. But Black King stopped the robot by engulfing his hands together in black aura and firing black energy blasts that blew up the Synthezoids into pieces from one punch after another.
Then suddenly, more muscular Synthezoids started swarming around inside the mansion halls, alerting White Queen and her squad at the same time. Black King, White Queen, Zodiac Moon, Amazonite, and Vondergeist summoned their Quirks with fierce determination.
Meanwhile, Dr. Daku arrived inside the chamber room down below the warehouse.
"I've been so absorbed with my latest technological inventions that I've left everything else to my Elite Synthezoids." Dr. Daku said to himself. "Forgive me, empress. But those provoking heroes are invading this warehouse as we speak."
Dr. Daku sped over to his desk and started packing every invented technology and formula journals into his suitcase.
"Everything's packed in this suitcase is not only my life's work, but the happy days I shared with the Amarante Coven." Dr. Daku said with a pressurized look on his face.
In the meanwhile, Selene, Diana, and the Shatrix effortlessly blasted and tore through every Synthezoids that was coming in their way. Out of the girls, Diana and Solaria were having the time of their lives with fierce smiles on their faces.
Then suddenly, Selene, Diana, and the Shatrix broke into the chamber room that completely destroyed the double doors. They moved their heads to Dr. Daku's direction. Diana and Solaria's smiles grew wider.
"What's up, doc? Miss us?" Solaria greeted.
Dr. Daku responded with a horror glare on his face.
Enjoy and review.
