In memory and dedication of Stan Lee, though we may forget some heroes now and again, the day will never come where we forget the man who created the heroes...

(28th December 1922 - 12th November 2018)

It was a bright and happy, Saturday morning, at the Triskelion Island, in the SHED,

And inside Julie's bedroom, Julie was fast asleep in her bed, while Chomp was sleeping in his doggie bed, but then Julie's alarm clock starting ringing, and a sleeping Julie's closed eyes, then opens, as she opens them with a gasp.

Julie sits up and presses the snooze button on her clock, she then looked at the now waken Chomp, as the baby triceratops trots over to look up at Julie, with a curious look.

Julie got out of bed and picks Chomp up, cuddling with him a bit, as she smiled brightly, "Today's the day!" She told Chomp, happily,

Julie puts Chomp on her bed, as she quickly walked exits her room, and walked to the bathroom to get ready,

After a shower and brushing her teeth, Julie was now wearing her bleached rainbow half-shirt with red shorts and a red scrunched and a gold heart hair clip.

Julie was in her room, and she opens her closet, revealing a pile of toys and party favours inside it, as she sweeps up the lot and giggles.

Downstairs, Julie was flying with her jetpack, as she was hanging party banners around the hanger,

In the kitchen, Julie was wearing an apron, as she was holding a mixing bowl in her left arm, as she was whisking cake batter with her right, as Chomp was sitting on the table, sleeping.

A few minutes later, after some time in the oven, Julie had oven mitts on as she takes out a freshly baked cake,

She puts the cake on the cooking table, and then started to add in the icing on it, she kept adding until the cake was nicely coated.

Julie smiled at the cake, as the top of the cake had a number "1" written on it in icing.

And then, the sound of noises coming down the stairs, which quickly gets Julie's attention, as she knew those noises was her friends, she smiled and picks up the tray with the cake on it, with both hands and walked to the doorway.

Julie walks out of the kitchen, with a cheerful smile on her face, as she had her eyes closed, "Today's the day!" She called out, with happiness, as she held her cake up.

But there was a long moment of silences, which made Julie open her right eye to look around, as a question mark pops up by her head.

And what she saw was as followed, Ava was sitting at the table, reading a book, while Kaikaina sitting at the other side of the table, listening to a boom box.

Randy and Metabee were playing a racing video game on the TV, was the two of them were sitting at the couch,

A thundering hip-hop track drowns out all other sounds at this point, Kaikaina, whose hair was being blown back by the wall of sound, and then Metabee and Randy were having a tug-of-war over the game controller.

Metabee was holding one end of the controller, pulling on it, "Come on, Randy, gimme that thing!" Metabee told Randy, as he had an annoyed look in his eyes.

While Randy was holding on to the other end of the controller, as he was in his pyjamas, as both his arms were bandaged up, with a bandage wrapped around his forehead and he had a band aid on his right cheek.

Randy was recovering from an extremely tough fight with Scorpion and Taskmaster.

Randy pulled on the controller, "I'm in the middle of a game, Bee! And besides, I'm recuperating; you should be more considerate by letting your injured friend finish his turn!" Randy told Metabee, looking irritated.

Julie watches the two of them fighting over the game like a pair of nine year olds,

"Yeah, but I bought the game, so the handle of who's turn it is falls to me!" Metabee told Randy, as he pulled on his end.

"Give me the controller!" Randy yelled at Metabee, as he pulls on his end, fighting over the controller.

"No! Let go!" Metabee retorted, he wasn't giving the controller up without a fight.

"It's my turn!" Randy yelled back,

Julie then comes in, standing behind the couch with a bright smile on her face, as she held up her cake. "You guys, today isn't a day to be fighting, it's a celebration!" She told them, overjoyed, as roses bloom all around her head as she says this.

But when she finishes, Julie was grinning broadly for several seconds-and then the flowers falls away, to the sound of a mental car wreck, as she realizes that no one is paying the least attention to her, disgruntled, Julie looks around the place, and she then slides over to Metabee's side, and cheerfully smiled to him.

"Come on, Metabee, today is a happy day, let's not ruin it by fighting." Julie said to Metabee, still keeping her smile up,

But then Metabee gets pulled away, to Julie's surprise, as Randy kept fighting with him over the controller. "You're gonna pay for that, you dork!" Metabee yelled at Randy,

A few seconds later, there is yelling and a camera-shaking crash from the two boys' direction, and Randy hops away from Metabee, with the controller in his hands, and then licks the controller with his tongue, Randy laughs and starts playing again.

Julie really tried to keep her smile up, "You guys, don't you know what today is?" She asked them, hoping that they'll know.

"RANDY!" Metabee yelled out with fury,

Randy had his right foot on Metabee's face, pushing him away, "Look! I'll give you back the controller as soon as Ava gives back my magazines!" He told him, as his glare then turns towards Ava,

Ava lowers her book and glares at Randy, "Not a chance, Cunningham, those magazines are sexist and demeaning to women, and how else am I supposed to keep you outta the bathroom when others need to use it." She told Randy, with an annoyed look on her face.

Julie then moves over to Ava, as she gives her a smile, as she held up her cake, "Ava, I know that you remember what today is!" She told Ava,

But Ava's glares at Julie, as her right eyebrow twitches as a skull pops up by her head; Julie takes the hint and backs off with a nervous little laugh.

Now a vein starts to throb on Ava's forehead on her next words, as she turned her scowl on to Kaikaina. "Hey, Kai, you think you could turn music up little louder (?) I can still hear myself think (!)" Ava told Kaikaina, annoyed and wanting her to turn her music down.

Julie makes as if to offer her the cake, as the free-for-all continues from the vicinity of the couch, Kaikaina glares off toward it and one vein after another stands out below her hairline, finally she has had enough.

"Maybe I would, if only I didn't need the music to DROWN OUT ALL THE YELLING!" Kaikaina yelled out, as she turned her head to the couch, as her head goes big and goes red, as Randy and Metabee's yelling was annoying her.

As Kaikaina's yelling blew back Julie's hair back,

Now Julie seem, rather tired of this whole idiocy, as she had a red background behind her, while holding her cake.

Kaikaina's throbbing head is at top left, Ava's at top right, and a laughing Randy runs past with the controller while Metabee chases him, while both of these guys were SD.

A moment later, they run back; SD Metabee was putting SD Randy in a headlock with one hand and seized the device with the other.

Whose turn is it now, tough guy (?) Whose turn is it now (?)" SD Metabee told Randy, tightening his grip,

SD Kaikaina then turned to yell at SD Randy and SD Metabee, with flames shooting out her mouth. "Knock it off! I can't work with you two acting like idiots!" She yelled at them,

SD Ava then coldly glares at SD Kaikaina, "Smart thinking, Kai, more yelling will definitely stop all the yelling (!)" She told her,

SD Kaikaina turns to growl at SD Ava, as SD Metabee runs screaming across; he has the controller, but SD Randy is charging after him, SD Metabee runs back and perches on Julie's cake, while SD Randy stops running and tries to catch his breath.

Julie watches all of them, with a wary look on her face, as she really wanted everyone to stop fight and let her tell them what so important about today.

"Guy, please..." Julie pleaded to them,

SD Metabee starts dancing and laughing, as he held up the controller in his hands,

"I am really trying to keep up a happy face and positive attitude for today, can you guys please just calm down and-" Julie tried to talk everyone down,

But Metabee lands on the edge of the cake and it topples over, falling off the plate and the cake falls and hits the floor, making a huge splat on the floor.

Julie stared at her ruined cake, with a disbelieving and crestfallen, Julie look then slowly turned to a tearful look, she worked hard to make that cake for today and just like that, her efforts and work was now just a splat on the floor.

SD Kaikaina and SD Ava grimace at each other and SD Randy stays half slumped over,

Julie's upset emotion then gives way to fist-clenching anger, and she does her best to keep from blowing her top, but eventually she loses the struggle, as she clenches her eyes and fists.

Julie then opens her mouth and her rage bursts out, "STTTTTOOOOOPPPPP!" Julie screamed out in fury, which shatters the red background behind her.

And her yell made everyone stop yelling at each other, and goes back to normal and were standing at a distance from Julie, with all of them looking at her with speechlessness.

"Hey, what's with all the yelling in here?" The sound of A-Bomb's voice entered the SHED, as they all turned and sees the blue hulk walking in, with a confused look on his face.

Julie calms down, as she looked down at her ruined cake on the floor, and then turned to look at her teammates, with a very sadden look. "I... I just wanted today to be special for all of us..." She told them,

Ava, Metabee, Kaikaina, A-Bomb and Randy all looked confused on what Julie was so upset about, what was today so special about.

Julie knew that they all didn't know what today was, which made her sadder, "I wanted to celebrate today... because today now marks one full year that we've all been together, as a team and as friends." Julie tells them the reason why she wanted no arguing and fighting on a today she wanted them to celebrate.

Now being told of this, Kaikaina, Randy, Ava, Metabee and A-Bomb now knew why this was so important to Julie, nothing means more to Julie than his friends and family, and she loves her friends like her own family, and looking back at everything they've been through, it makes sense that she would want to celebrate a full year that they've been together.

Metabee, now looking guilty, looked at Julie, "Aw,we're sorry, Jule..." He apologized to her, with Kaikaina and Randy looking guilty as well, as they nodded their heads.

Ava walks up to Julie, and puts her right hand on Julie's left shoulder, with an understanding look on her face. "We're sorry, Julie, I guess we're not in the celebrating mood." Ava told her,

Julie turned her head to look at Ava, as she had small tears forming in the corner of her eyes. "It may not be special to you, but looking back at everything we've been through together, the struggle and hardships; I just wanted to show how much our friendship means to us. But now... I feel like that friendship is starting to fade away..." Julie explained to them; sadden as she looks down at the floor.

Randy, A-Bomb, Ava, Kaikaina and Metabee looked shocked at hearing Julie say that,

Kaikaina steps forward, holding her right hand at Julie, looking concerned. "Aw, come on, Julie, don't say that." She said, not wanting Julie to say stuff like that.

"We are so not fading." Randy said to her, trying to assure her that their friendships ain't falling apart.

"So we're getting on each other's nerves a little, that's what most friends do, it's no big deal." Ava tells Julie, as she removes her hand from Julie's shoulder.

A-Bomb then walks up to Julie, with a smile on his face, "Yeah, it's just typical roommate stuff, and it'll take a lot more than that to break us all up, Julie, I promise, we'll all still be friends until we're all 80 (!)" A-Bomb joked, making it clear that nothing is gonna break up team S.P.D.

Julie turned to look up at A-Bomb, with a bit of an unconvinced and hesitant look on her face, "Do you mean it..? Like... Friends forever..?" Julie asked A-Bomb, hoping that he means on what he said, if they'll be friends forever...

But before A-bomb could answer that, Ava's watch started beeping, getting everyone's attention, as she lifts up her left arm and looked at the screen on her watch.

Ava then looked up at her teammates, with a serious look on her face, "We've got trouble!" She told them, as they've got some villain trouble.

A-Bomb and Randy both turned to look at each other, as neither of them can go, as Randy is still recovering and A-Bomb was on probation and couldn't go either.

"It's at the national history museum," Ava said, as she readied where it was, as she then turned to look at Kaikaina, Metabee and Julie. "Get what you need and let's get moving!" Ava gave them their orders.

As with A-Bomb's probation, his leadership title was taken from him and the role of team leader was temporarily given to Ava.

Kaikaina and Metabee nodded, as the two of them and Ava quickly ran to the stairs and ran up them to get their gear in their rooms, while Julie was still standing there, as she turned to look at her ruined cake on the floor, with still a look of sadness, before she flies upward upstairs to her room, to get her gear.

A-Bomb and Randy were left standing there, as they then turned to look at each other, both knowing that Julie was still upset, they both turned to look at Julie's cake on the floor, and A-Bomb had a look of guilt as he can't imagine how much Julie worked hard to make that cake for them.

Now at the Jump City national history museum,

In a gallery filled with ticking clocks from many historical periods, and there was a particular display case by the far wall.

And then, a portal of white light opens up and turns black after a moment as if a second hand had just swept across it, stepping out of the portal was a man,

His skin was light-blue, he has long eyebrows and two equally long and skinny beards, his legs are long and skinny, he had gold armor covering most of his body, except his waist. He also wears a golden-brown, smog-producing, piston-driven time machine, which appears to obscure his lab coat, he was wears a tall hat with a small silver fork on the top of it, his left arm has a huge metal glove with a clock on it.

The blue-skinned man's name was Dr. Nefarious Tropy or N. Tropy for short,

N. Tropy was walking towards the glass case, and in the case, was a small clock in a cylindrical gold housing, with a glass hemisphere on top, N. Tropy gets closer, and just before he could reach his right arm to the case...

"Hold it right there!" The sound of a weapon being cocked is heard with this.

N. Tropy turns around, and behind him were two armed guards who have moved in and are ready to fire.

But N. Tropy smirked evilly, as he looked at them, "Hold it there, yourselves!" He told them, as he lifted up his left gauntlet and aimed the clock on it at them and in an instant later both men are frozen in place, still as statues as the time around was stopped.

N. Tropy then turns back to the case, and glares at it with a smile on his face. "I didn't journey back in time one hundred years to squabble, I came to steal." He said, as he stares at the timepiece.

"The Clock of Eternity, valuable in the past, priceless in the future." N. Tropy said, as he was about to grab the glass case, to remove it.

But then, from up above, was a blaster shot was flying towards N. Tropy, only to have it deflect off his left arm, causing N. Tropy to move back and quickly turn, in surprise, at where the shot came from.

He sees, on the balcony railing, was White Tiger, Metabee, Kaikaina and Julie (Who was now wearing her normal clothes), were glaring down at the time-villain.

"Don't they have signs in the future, in a museum, you don't touch the exhibits!" Metabee told N. Tropy, as he aimed his right gauntlet at him.

N. Tropy turned to look at them, "Team S.P.D. this is an honour..." He told them, as he held his right hand out, and then, in a flash of light, a large tuning fork appeared. "I've readied all about you in the historical archives in the future, and now you're all history!" N. Tropy told them,

As he aimed his tuning fork at them and fires an energy blast at them,

"Scatter!" White Tiger quickly told the team, as they all jumped over the railing in a heartbeat to avoid the blast.

N. Tropy then pivots off to one side and fires again with a shout, aiming at Metabee but he parries the barrage with ease with his forearms, but the last shot, however, breaks Metabee's defense and blasts him across the room.

A blaster shot was fired, from behind N. Tropy, as he turned around and sees Kaikaina charging in, firing her twin blasters at him, followed by White Tiger but Kaikaina's blaster shots were deflected by N. Tropy, as he effortlessly deflects them with his tuning fork when they reach him, and one ricochet comes back at her and knocks her off the ground.

N. Tropy then turned and looks incurious off to one side as White Tiger's growl was heard, as she was charging towards him, but up comes N. Tropy's clock glove, the clock face fires a crackling blast, immobilizing White Tiger in mid-leap.

Then, from behind, two missiles flies towards N. Tropy and connecting dead on, exploding and throwing up a cloud of dust.

Metabee was standing behind the cloud, as his missile barrels were smoking, after being fired, while Metabee had a proud look in his eyes. "Well, looks like your times-" He was about to say it, but was cut off, when he sees the smoke clears, N. Tropy was in a force field, and absorb the explosion's energy and was unharmed, he takes the force field down, N. Tropy then throws something Metabee, as it lands on his chest and sticks there, it resembled a kitchen timer, and the pointer turns a notch to send up sparks from every part of the Medabot's body.

Metabee shut his eyes in pain, as the electricity was hurting him, and he was feeling weaker. "Draining my power cell!" He grunted in pain,

N. Tropy smirked, mockingly, as he held up his right hand, as he was holding a disk. "You cannot defeat Dr. Nefarious Tropy, master of time!" He said,

As he tosses the disk across the gallery toward the charging Kaikaina, who fires a handful of her blasters' energy shots, but N. Tropy's projectile, however, smashes cleanly through them, then doubles back and homes in again, Kaikaina and Julie dives aside as it sails the full length of the room and explodes at the other end.

N. Tropy laughed a bit, "And you relics are one hundred years out of date." He mocked the team,

As he turns away to face the case that was holding the Clock of Eternity, N. Tropy then reached his left out, as it passes through the glass, and grabs hold of the clock and pulls it out of the case.

With the clock in his hands, N. Tropy takes a few steps across the gallery, before stops, as the large clock face on his chest plate, started glowing bright white and emits a beam that forms into a portal identical to the one that brought him here.

Before he could step walk through the time portal, N. Tropy turned to look at his defeated adversaries. "Ta-ta, S.P.D. I'd say I've enjoyed our time together, but that would be a lie." He mocked them, as he turns to make his exit.

Behind him, White Tiger and Julie, were watching N. Tropy, before Julie balled her hands into fists, as she looked angry, as she then roars in fury and flies straight at him, at great speed, as she wasn't gonna let him get away.

N. Tropy puts his right foot into the portal, but before he stepped all the way in, he stopped and turned to look, as he heard Julie yell. "What the-" He said, before Julie tackles him.

But her momentum carries them both through the portal, which quickly closes behind them and in an instant before White Tiger hurls herself across the room in attempt to follow them in, but she ends up sprawled on the floor.

Kaikaina and Metabee, spread out and looking at the now-empty case, both look shocked and confused on what just happened.

White Tiger stands up and looked around the room, with a look of panic and shock. "Julie!" She yelled out,

Now somewhere, in-between time and space,

Floating in the void, Julie and N. Tropy were grapple in mid-air, fighting as they floated in loops, as they pushed against each other.

N. Tropy gritted his teeth at Julie, "You simple minded girl! Let go!" He ordered her,

Julie looked serious as she pushed back, "Forget it, creep!" She retorted back to him,

N. Tropy had a look of worry as they tussled, "Stop, you fool! If you damage the suit before we reach my future-" He tried to explained,

But Julie punches the clock on the chest of his armor, with her right fist, smashing it to pieces, to N. Tropy's shock and horror, as she grabbed the Clock of Eternity away from him.

"No!" N. Tropy yelled out, as there was now a great flash of white,

When it clears, Julie had let go of N. Tropy, leaving her floating alone, she looks up and gasps and covers her eyes as she watched as N. Tropy drops screaming as he falls away as everything goes black as he goes, when he has receded from sight entirely.

And then, a second white flash emanates from the immeasurable depths, this then leaves a black field and Julie falling, then immediately snap to a deep snowdrift, where she lands very hard.

Julie was lying face first in the snow, in a Julie shaped hole in the snow, Julie then merges out of it, standing up.

It is night-time, and a bitter winter wind whistles over the landscape, which made Julie quickly wrap her hands on to her arms, hugging herself as the cold wind and snow made her shiver.

"Wh... Where am I?" Julie said to herself, as she looked around, wondering where she was, she was in a field of some kind.

It wasn't night when her and the team left to the museum and it was definitely not snowing, Julie then knew where she was, she was in Jump City Park, but how she ended up here and at the middle of night, she hadn't had the foggiest idea.

But if she was still in Jump City, she should quickly get back to the museum, to help her teammates.

Julie actives her jetpack and flies off, flying out of the snow,

As Julie flew across the city, she noticed that there weren't that many people out walking in the street, no cars, bikes or trucks being driven on the road, and there was lots of building, shops and homes that were shut down or abandoned, all of a sudden, Jump City became a ghost town.

When Julie reached the museum, she lands and plants her feet on the snowy ground, as she stared at the museum, with speechlessness and confusion on her face, as she finds the museum's entrance was boarded up, with signs the readied 'Keep Out' and 'Abandoned'.

Julie was now even more confused on what was going on, the museum wasn't like this when she and the team arrived.

Julie turned around and looked at the empty streets, with an uncomfortable and worried look on her face. "Okay... This went from 'Weird' to 'Twilight Zone'..." She said to herself,

Things were getting stranger and stranger, Julie then flies off.

Julie was flying to the Triskelion Island, hoping to find some answers to what was going on.

Julie reached the island, and to her shock, she finds the whole base empty and abandoned, she flies down and lands on the ground, as Julie began to walk around, looking for any sign of life on the island.

"Hello! Washington! Cerea! Blukic, Driba! Dr. Grey! Anyone?" Julie called out their names, hoping to hear something, but there wasn't an answer.

Julie was really getting scared, as she kept walking, until she stopped and gasped in shock, as she saw the SHED, worn out, with the hanger doors broken off as they lied there.

Julie then ran into the old SHED, when she enters it, she quickly looked around, "Ava! Randy! Kai! Metabee! Rick!" Julie called, now completely panicking.

And then, in the shadows, off near to the wall, a two spots of green lights begins to glow as some machinery is heard; she gasps and looks toward it.

Julie then looked happy and relieved, at seeing the two green lights, "Metabee!" She said, as she smiled, thinking that those green lights were Metabee's eyes.

But the green lights didn't move at all when Julie talked to it,

"Ah, Bee, you have no idea how happy I am to see you, you think you can tell me what's going on and-" Julie was cut off as she sees...

The illumination reaches the dark niche and exposes something that has Metabee's approximate body shape, but is built entirely of mechanical parts, the source of the two green spots was an electronic brain sitting in one side of the head, Julie's smiled then quickly disappeared and she cries out in fear and throws her right fist and punches the robot, that blows the collection of circuitry away, only to be confronted by several spider-like robots that jump up from behind the shoulders, each looks like the part she just destroyed.

Now she tosses punch after another to knock them out,

"Hey!" A voice entered the SHED, which made Julie stop attacking, as she turned to where the voice came from,

Standing at the entrance, walks in, as Julie gets a full view of the person, as the armoured panels that covered his body are damaged, with cracks and chips in it, and his yellow paintjob was faded, and he only had his right eye's light open as the left eye's light was out, and his left leg was gone and is using a sword's blade as a prosthetic leg.

It was Metabee but he was old... REALLY old, as he was walking into the SHED,

Metabee had his right hand on his left gauntlet, with a serious look in his eye, "Who's up here smashin' my..." He stops walking and talking, as he lowers his gauntlet, and his serious look changes to a shocked look, and stares dumbfounded at seeing Julie. "... Julie..?"

Julie stared at the older Metabee, completely speechless at seeing his friend, all old and like he's gonna fall apart, with a sword as a leg and one of his eyes broken.

Metabee comes closer to look at Julie over from head to toe, with disbelief in his eye. "Julie... I... How did... Where... I don't believe it..." He tried to say the right words but couldn't due to this complete shock to him.

Julie got down onto her knees, as she looked at the older Metabee, with confusion. "Metabee, what happened to you, you're so... so..." She tried to think of something but couldn't

"Old?" Metabee finished her sentence, as he laughed a bit, "I should be really askin' why you haven't aged a day." He tells Julie,

"Bee, what's going on, what happened to Jump City, where is everyone and why are you so old?" Julie asked Metabee, hoping to get some answers to what was happening.

Metabee looked at Julie, with a depressed look, as he sighed, "You've been gone, Jule... for nearly thirty years..." He tells her,

Julie then froze in shock; she's been gone for thirty years...

"That fight with N. Tropy, you and him went through that time portal, and..." Metabee said, before turned and walking to the opened doors, to look up at the snowing night sky, before he turned his head to look back at Julie. "Welcome to the future..."

Julie stood up, look shocked, as she walked over to Metabee, as she looked at the sky, this horrible version of Jump City, was the future.

"The future... but how..." Julie was in a state of confusion, before she quickly remembers... "N. Tropy..." She and N. Tropy entered the portal; it was obvious that she travelled through time.

Metabee looked up at Julie, with a serious look in his eye, "N. Tropy planned to jump ahead, a hundred years, and looks like you stopped him at thirty." He tells her,

Julie kept staring, before looking down at Metabee, "I still don't get it, Bee, what happened to the Triskelion, where Wash, Cerea, Dr. Grey?" She asked him, wanting to know where everyone was.

But Metabee sighed, as he shook his head, "A lot of things can happen in thirty years..." He told her, as they and all of S.H.I.E.L.D. left years ago.

Julie then had a look of concern, as she got down on her knees, facing Metabee at in level. "Metabee, what happened to our friends, Randy, Ava, Kai and Rick, what happened to them?" She asked him, worried.

Metabee stared at her with a now sadden look, "Follow me..." He tells her, as he walks out of the SHED, with Julie getting up and following him.

Metabee leaded Julie to the shore of the island,

Metabee and Julie were carefully walking on the large rocks, before Metabee stopped, which made Julie stop walking as well, looking down at him.

Metabee turned around and looked up at Julie, with a straight look in his eye, "Over there..." He said to her, as he pointed his right index finger at something.

Julie looked up to where he was pointing, and then, her face was hit with a look of total horror and shock, as what she saw, on the shore, was a flat rock, on its side, as there was writing craved on it.

It readied...

'In memory of Rick "A-Bomb" Jones: Son, Brother, Leader, Friend'

It was a headstone... A-Bomb's headstone!

Julie slowly walked to the tombstone, trying to process all of this, A-Bomb dead..? It was like a bad dream, as Julie slowly got down on her knees, and puts her right hand on the tombstone, slowly sliding it down to see if was real.

Metabee had a grief stricken look, as he watched her, "After you disappeared, we all were having fallen outs with each other, to the point of fighting with each other. Rick tried his best to keep the team together, to keep us unified... But there was a mission, some marauders raided a star ship cruiser, which was carrying a dark matter bomb, we managed to beat them, but they armed the bomb, it was too late to disarm it, we got everyone to the ship's escape pods, but the bomb was going to blow and before a black hole, which would have destroy an entire quadrant... A-Bomb decided to stay behind to try and minimize the blast radius to prevent a black hole... The bomb blew... with Rick with it... He saved millions of lives... at the cost of his own."

Metabee finished explaining how A-Bomb died, as Julie turned to look at him, as she was nearly on the verge of crying at A-Bomb's death.

Metabee sighed, depressingly, "We couldn't even bury him... after Rick's death, we all just... fell apart, Ava, Randy and Kai... we all went our separate ways... S.P.D. was history..." He finished telling the fate of team S.P.D.

Julie stands up and looked defensive, "No... This can't be what happens to all of us! How could such terrible things..." She said, before stopping, as she remembers something, "... N. Tropy, he messed with the past and it changed our future."

But Metabee had an unconvinced look in his eye, "Jule, I don't think-"

But Julie quickly got down on her knees again and puts both her hands on Metabee's shoulders, as she looked him straight in the eye, with a determined look. "He caused all this to happen, he can travel through time, if we can find him, then we can travel back and prevent all of this from happening!" She explained to him, suggesting that there's a chance to change this horrible future for the better.

Metabee looked at her, as he starts thinking about it, if there was a chance to change this future, a chance to save team S.P.D. and save A-Bomb, it was a chance he had to take.

"If there is a chance... I'm in," Metabee told Julie, with a serious look in his eye, as he looked at her.

Julie smiled at Metabee, "We can change this future, but we can't take N. Tropy down with just the two of us, we need the others." She tells him, saying that they'll need Randy, Ava and Kaikaina's help to take him down.

But Metabee had a discouraged look at hearing that, "Julie, it's been thirty years, you have no idea how bitter they've gotten with each other." Metabee warned Julie, knowing that Ava, Kaikaina and Randy won't just come back and be a team again.

"But maybe there's a chance, once they see me." Julie tells him, with a hopeful look on her face. "Is there a way to contact them?" She asked,

Metabee had a hesitant look, but he turned around and walked off, to Julie's confusion.

Heading back to the SHED, Metabee walked over to some old boxes at the corner, and goes through one of them.

He finds what he was looking for, it was a S.H.I.E.L.D. communication watch, and presses a button on its side, and a holo-screen appeared, where Metabee then presses a button on the screen, activating a distress beacon to Ava, Kaikaina and Randy's watches.

Which Metabee hoped that they still had..?

A few hours later,

Now in Jump City, driving down the road, was the Hydraulix Jamma, as it was broken down, the paint was faded, it had rust at the undercarriage and one of the head lights were out.

Inside the car, Metabee was driving, while Julie was in the passenger seat, as she was wearing a winter coat and winter pants for the weather.

Julie looked at the side window, looking at the buildings and the empty streets, "What happened to the city, where's all the people?" She asked, wondering why Jump City was practical abandoned.

Metabee kept his eye on the road, "Over the years, the fights that happened in the city got more and more destructive, and every citizen in Jump City left, now the city is just a festering ground for criminals." Metabee explained to Julie, as he made a left turn.

Julie continued staring at the city, as she still can't come to grips to this future.

As they drove, unknown to them, a row of a spike strips were on the road, Hydraulix Jamma drove on them, and its tires were blown out, causing Metabee to lose control and the car swerve off the road and crashing into a pile of trashcans.

With the car crashed and under some trashcans, the doors opens and Metabee and Julie steps out, both a bit dazed from that, as they turned to look at the spike strips, then, walking out of the dark alleys in the street, were a bunch of thugs, as they were armed with baseball bats and chains.

The thugs were surrounding Julie and Metabee, as they were going to attack them, Julie and Metabee got into a readied stance, prepared for a fight.

But then, from up above, a blaster shot was fired and flew down and hits a bat out of the hands of one of the thugs, to his surprise and the other, as they all looked up and they to see where the shot came from, but then another shot was fired and hits the ground, near the feet of another thug, which made him jump in shock.

Then more shots were fired, each hitting the ground near each feet of the thugs, making them jump around, before they all started to run away, leaving Julie and Metabee standing there, with Julie looked confused but Metabee having a straight look, as he knew who fired those shots.

A metal clanking sound was heard on a building's fire escape ladder, which made Julie turn to look at where the sound came from, she sees a shadowy figure, quickly climbing down the fire escape, before reaches and plants their feet on the ground.

The shadowy figure is revealed to be a 46 year old Kaikaina Grif, who's hair was longer, reaching the back of her neck, and had a bang cover her left eye, she was wearing a dark brown cloak over a black shirt and pants with a white belt and white bandages wrapped up to his knees on both legs.

And the one thing Julie saw that shocked her; Kaikaina was missing her right arm, as it ended at her right bicep and had a metal coat to cover the end of it.

Kaikaikaina towards Metabee and Julie, with a cold and serious scowl on her face, "So, it's really you, Jule... You came back..." She said to Julie, without a tone of happiness in her voice.

Julie stepped forward, looking speechless, "Kai... You... What happened to your arm?" She asked Kaikaina, shocked that Kaikaina was missing her right arm.

But Kaikaina pointed her left index finger at Julie, accusingly, as she had an angered scowl on her face. "You're the one who's got some questions, I want answers! Where the hell have you been all these years?" She told Julie, demanding to know and wanting a good answer.

Julie was surprised of how serious and ruthless Kaikaina had gotten over the years.

Kaikaina then had a bit of a sadden look, "We thought you were dead... How could you have just abandoned us like that?!" She then yelled at Julie, with a hurt and angered expression.

Julie stepped back, with a defensive look, "Kai, you know that I would never just abandon the team, that day when we fought N. Tropy, I travelled into this future, which is your present." Julie explained to Kaikaina,

Metabee steps forward and looked up at Kaikaina, with a straight look in his eye, "Julie thinks that there's a chance to change the time-line from this to something better, a chance to save the city, the team and Rick." Metabee explained to her,

Kaikaina looked down at Metabee, with a bit of a surprised but conflicted look on her face, not sure to believe them, changing this horrible future sounded far-fetched, she does want to see A-Bomb again, but she doesn't want to get her hopes up to only to be let down.

But Julie steps closer to Kaikaina and puts her right hand on Kaikaina's left shoulder and looked at her with a look of hopefulness. "It's a long shot, but, if there's a chance to change this all, don't you want things to go back to the way they were?" She asked her,

Kaikaina stared at her, it's been a downward spiral for years for not only her, but for the rest of them, to go back to how things were sounded like a dream, but N. Tropy is a villain that can travel through time, which meant that they would change this future, but a possibility of making thing much more worse.

But Kaikaina knew if they can change the future, it can't be any worse than this.

Kaikaina had an unsure look on her face, as she thought about, before looking at Julie, with a serious glare, "If you are going to try to change this crappy future, then I'm gonna take a guess that you're also gonna be roundin' up Randy and Ava, right?" She asked her, as Julie nodded,

Kaikaina then turned around and step away for her, as she looked up at the night sky, "Good luck doing that." She told Julie,

Julie looked confused on why she would say that, "What do you mean by that?" She asked, wondering why Kaikaina told her good luck on rounding up Randy and Ava.

Kaikaina then turned to look at Julie, with a straight face, "Let's just say that the two of them didn't leave on the best of terms with each other, after the team broke up." She tells Julie, given her a fair bit of warning of how strained Randy and Ava's relationship had gotten.

Julie had a worried look on her face, after being told that, she can't imagine how the years have treated Randy and Ava...

Sometime later,

In another part of the city, in a dark alley, walking down it, it was a figure, who was wearing a black hooded cloak, which hid their face.

The hooded figure kept walking, until they stopped, as there was a thug, holding a crowbar in his left hand, as he gave a smug smirk.

"Fraid I can't let you pass, buddy, you're on our territory and there's a fee..." The thug explained to the hooded figure.

As then, some more thugs appeared from out of the shadows, each with weapons in their hands, as they stared at the hooded figure.

"... And if you can't pay the fee..." The thug finished, as he steps forward, closer to the hooded figure,

The thug then lifted up his crowbar over his head, and swings it down at the figure, but the hooded figure quickly grabs the thug's left wrist with their right hand, stopping his attack, the thug looked surprised, as the hooded figure then turned around and pulled on the thug's wrist, tossing him over their shoulder, and sends the thug flying and crashing into some trashcan, the other gang members now charged towards the hooded figure to attack them, one thug swings a bat at the figure, but the hooded figure ducked and dodged the attack, and where they delivers a left kick to the stomach, knocking the thug off his feet, then another thug runs in and tosses his right fist at the hooded figure, but then the figure slapped it away with their right hand, before stepping forward, spinning around and delivering an elbow to the face, knocking the thug to the ground.

Then, from behind, another thug swings a chain at the hooded figure, the figure ducks and the delivers a left leg swipe, knocking the thug off his feet and sending him to the ground, and then another thug runs in, but the hooded figure quickly rolls onto their back, and kicks both their feet upward, delivering a double kick uppercut, kicking the thug in the chin, the hooded figure does a kick-up and gets back on his feet, and sees three more thugs running in, surrounding the figure, but the hooded figure jumps up, doing a spinning helicopter kick, hitting all three thugs in their faces, knocking all of them to the ground.

The hooded figure stands tall, facing the gang, as all the thugs were getting up off the ground, battered and bruised, as they looked at the hooded figure, as the figure was ready for another fight.

All of the thugs gave the hooded figure a vengeful scowl, as they all ran away, leaving the alley, leaving the hooded figure there, alone.

"You're practically the spittin' image of Dororo, except for the height, Cunningham." The sound of Metabee's voice entered the alley, from behind the hooded figure, walking up from the other side of the alley, was Julie, Metabee and Kaikaina.

The hooded figure slowly turned around, to face them revealing to be Randy, Julie walks ahead of Metabee and Kaikaina, and stopped when they reached Randy.

Julie looked at Randy, as the hood kept hiding his face, and she couldn't see it. "Randy... It's me, Julie..." Julie tells him, trying not to overwhelm him at seeing her after all these years.

Randy turned his head slightly to the left, "Julie..? Is it really you..?" He said, with a sound of great disbelief.

Julie smiled a bit, as she steps forward, closer to Randy and nodded, "Yes, Randy, it's really me!" She told him,

"I... I never thought I'd hear your voice again..." Randy said to Julie,

Julie then got a slightly confused look, but kept her smile up, "What do you mean by that?" She asked Randy, wondering why he said 'hear' instead of 'see'.

Randy then reached his right hand up and grabs his hood, pulling it down, revealing his face, as he looked older, as his hair was shaved off, but what really caught Julie's attention, was a bandage wrapped around his head, that was covering both of Randy's eyes.

Julie's smile then drops, as she looked confused and shocked at seeing those bandages around Randy's eyes, "Randy... What happened..?" She asked him, really wanting to know what happened to Randy.

Randy sighed, as he lifts up his left hand and lifts up his bandages, removing them from his eyes, revealing a large scar that travelled across his eyes, and Randy then opens his eyes, and his pupils were blank, void of their original colour.

Randy was blind...

Julie puts both her hands over her mouth, as she looked completely horrified, "Y-your eyes..!" She said, couldn't even put anything into words at this.

Randy then pulls the bandages back over his eyes, covering them, as he had a sadden frown, "A fight with Whiplash that went South, got an energy whip to both my eyes and haven't been able to see anything since." He explained to Julie how he became blind.

Julie was stricken with grief at this, this future was a living nightmare, seeing how much her friends have truly suffered, A-Bomb being dead, Kaikaina losing her right arm and Randy losing his eyesight, before she went through that portal, she saw her friends the way they were, young and prideful and now she sees their older selves, now with the look of hope lost.

But Randy gave Julie a small smirk, "But hey, chicks digs blind guys (!)" Randy joked, as he laughed a bit, making humour to lighten up his condition.

Julie's mouth then curved to a small smile, as she laughed a bit, a bit glad that Randy didn't lose his sense of humour, especially in these dark times.

Some time passed,

Walking down the street, the gang was plowing through the snow,

Julie looked at the blind Randy, with a questionable look on her face, "So what happened to your Ninja Mask?" She asked Randy, curious about what happened to Randy's alter ego Ninja.

Randy sighed, "There was a bad fight and I lost the mask over a bottomless pit and never saw in 27 years." He explained to her, of what happened to the Ninja Mask.

Randy turned his head to face Julie, "So, the only one left is Ava?" The blind ninja asked her,

Julie looked at him, as she nodded, "Yeah, but I don't think she gonna come, if your falling out was so bad, Ava will hold on to it, she's always been like that." She said, as she had a worried expression on her face.

Metabee looked up at Julie, "You shouldn't just assume that Ava hasn't changed over the years, time can always change a person and Ava is no exception." He tells Julie, making her turn and look back at the old Medabot.

As they kept walking, a laser blast came from up above, in front of the team, knocks them backward, away to safety, as they all looked to the buildings roofs to see where that blast came from.

On one of the roofs, it's reveal to be N. Tropy, as he held his tuning fork weapon in his right hand, aiming it at them, as he smiled at them.

"What's the matter, dear? Have I come at a bad time?" N. Tropy joked,

N. Tropy then began to fire a barrage of lasers at the team, peppering the snow all around them, but Julie, Randy, Kaikaina and Metabee all scattered away from each other, dodging the laser fire. Metabee aimed his right gauntlet at N. Tropy, while Kaikaina reaches her left hand into her poncho and takes out her blaster, and the both of them began to fire at N. Tropy, but like before in the museum, he puts up a force field to stop blaster shots.

Julie then flies up into the air, with her jetpack, while carrying Randy, under his arms, once she reached the roof where N. Tropy was, she lets go of Randy and he lands on the roof top, where he faces N. Tropy.

Randy then removes his cloak, reveal to be wearing a black ninja gi, and had a sword in its scabbard on his back, as he unsheathed his sword and held it with both hands, and sprints towards N. Tropy and swings his sword at him, but N. Tropy drops his force field and swings his tuning fork and he and Randy's sword clashes, Randy and N. Tropy were pushing against each other, before they both pulled their weapons back, as N. Trop swings his tuning fork, and sends an energy wave at Randy, where he quickly leans up, dodging the wave, and goes over N. Tropy's head, and lands behind him, Randy then turned around and swings his sword, but N. Tropy quickly blocks it with his tuning fork, N. Tropy then pulls his tuning fork back and then spins it in his right hand, and then swings it at Randy, where he quickly swings his sword upward, blocking the attack, and spun his body around and delivers a spinning left kick, hitting N. Tropy's face, knocking him back a few feet, when N. Tropy recovered, he was running his chin with his right hand, as he was glaring at Randy.

"The years have made you more skillful, even with your eyesight gone; you're just as fast and as sharp, as you were in your youth." N. Tropy told Randy, sounding impressed on Randy, despite now being in his forties and blind.

But then, N. Tropy lifted up and aimed his tuning fork at Randy and fired a energy pulse at him, hitting him and knocking Randy off the roof, and he falls to the ground below, landing on some snow.

N. Tropy glared down at the grounded Randy, "But you're now nothing more than a decrepit old fossil of your former self." He told him,

"Then how about you try me!" The sound of Julie's voice was heard behind him, as N. Tropy turned around and sees Julie, flying towards him with her fists at the ready to punch him.

But N. Tropy smile wickedly, as he waves his right hand and then, Julie gets encased in ice, which makes her drop down to the street, when she hits the ground, the ice shatters, and Julie is left lying on her back, twitching and groaning in a crater of snow.

Randy quickly got up and he, Kaikaina and Metabee quickly ran to Julie's aid, but then, jumping off the roof and swinging his tuning fork down at the ground, creating a huge shockwave, that knocking all of them away from Julie.

N. Tropy then steps close to Julie, as she gets back up and soon finds N. Tropy on the receiving end of her angry glare,

N. Tropy then held up his left hand, "The Clock of Eternity, if you please, I really must get back to my future." He told Julie, wanting her to hand over the Clock of Eternity.

Julie then reached her right hand to her back and takes out the Clock of Eternity and then held up her left fist, aiming it at it, as she glared angrily at N. Tropy. "Undo what you've done to my past, or I swear, I will smash you're little clock to a million pieces!" She threatens him, wanting N. Tropy to fix all the damage done to the past, to change this horrible future.

But N. Tropy just look confused, "Damage? I didn't do anything to your past, one cannot damage history, because history is unchangeable, I went back in time to steal the clock because history says it disappeared, and history says it disappeared because I went back to steal it. Do you see where I'm going with this, my dear, past, present, future, this future is all written in stone," N. Tropy explained to Julie, with a serious glare on his face.

Julie's glare then slowly turned to a conflicted look, not sure and trying not to believe what he said, this future can't be inevitable, this can't truly be how S.P.D. ends... it can't! Julie now had a look of defeat, as she lowered her left fist,

"And nothing you do can ever change it, not in the past and certainly not in the present." N. Tropy told Julie, as he quickly lifted up his tuning fork and aimed it at her, firing a blast, hitting her and sending her flying across the street and smashing into an abandoned building.

"No!" The sound of Metabee yelling, as N. Tropy quickly turned and sees the old Medabot, as he leaps up and falls towards him, but N. Tropy lifted up his tuning fork and drives the gap of his fork, in-between Metabee's neck and then swings him up, smashing Metabee into the ground.

Metabee was pinned to the ground, as he held on to the fork, trying to break free, as he glares at N. Tropy, while N. Tropy smirked at him, mockingly.

But then something hurtles and flies in, from out of nowhere, tackling N. Tropy, sending into an alley, standing up, it is a black silhouette with long hair, and it throws N. Tropy even farther down the way to hit a dead-end wall, the shadowy figure stood up, as N. tropy drops to the ground, landing on his knees.

N. Tropy looked up at the shadowy figure, "Another time, perhaps," He said, as he phases through the ground, disappearing from sight.

With N. Tropy now gone, Metabee, Randy and Kaikaina walked towards the shadowy figure, with all of them having looks that knew who this was.

"Hello, Ava..." Randy said, with a straight face, as he knew it was Ava,

But then the shadowy figure then turned around, quickly, emerging out of the shadow and revealing herself, as it was Ava... an older Ava.

She was a 46 year old woman, as Ava's hair was tied into a ponytail, as there were three scars trailing across her right eye, as they looked like they came from a wild beast, she was wearing a grey shirt on, and wore a black leather jacket over it, and black pants and combat boots.

Ava looked shocked and angered at seeing Randy, "Cunningham, what the hell are you doin' here?" She asked him, confused on why he was here.

Randy step forward, with a calm but serious look on his face, as the blind ninja stops near her, while facing her.

While Kaikaina and Metabee watched, as Kaikaina had an amused smile on her face, "This oughta be good." She told Metabee, as watching Randy and Ava go at it after all these years maybe entertaining.

"I'm here, because the call was for all of us, I just didn't think you'd actually show up." Randy tells her,

But Ava walks closer to Randy, still with anger on her face, "Oh is that what you thought, you think that I would just abandon my friends (?) Like how you made all of us abandon Rick, when he needed us most!" Ava yelled at Randy, with fury in her voice, as she pointed her right index finger at Randy and poked him in the chest.

As this whole thing was about what happened to A-Bomb...

But Randy leaned in, "He gave us an order to leave him, I didn't like it either, but it was what he wanted, to save us and the lives of innocents, we had to honour his orders, you should have at least understand that!" He yelled back at Ava, with slight grief in his voice.

"I would never put orders ahead of my family, you know that, Cunningham! If we stayed, we could have stop the bomb and save Rick!" Ava told Randy, anger rising more and more,

"You know we couldn't! Rick made a choice, save himself or save us, and he chose us! He's gone and there nothing we can do about!" Randy yelled at Ava, right in her face,

Ava's anger then hits its peak, as Ava then puts both hands on Randy's shoulders and shoves him with great force. "NO!" Ava yelled out,

Randy steps backwards, before regaining his footing, he got angry and then unsheathed his sword and held it at the right at Ava. "That's it, Ava, I'm done talkin', let's settle this!" He told Ava, gritting his teeth, as he prepared to fight her.

Ava then reached both her hands to the back of her belt, and takes out two large knives and held them up, as she glares daggers at Randy. "Then I guess we're finally at an agreement!" She retorted back at Randy, as she was prepared for a fight with him.

But before the two of them could charge at each other, quickly landing between them, stopping them from fight, it was Julie, as she looked serious and turned to look at Ava, holding her right hand up.

"OK, you two need a time-out," Julie told Ava and Randy, with a serious expression, as she looked at Ava.

Ava looked shocked and speechless at the sight of Julie, totally in disbelief, "Julie... It... it can't be..." She said, as she couldn't believe it,

Julie lowered her hand, "It can and is..." She told Ava,

Some time passes, now underground, under the city,

There was an extremely large machine room, with a group of turning gears in it, and there were a bank of computers and control panels on one side, with a chair in front, and two cylindrical storage containers are across from them.

One of the containers, Julie walks into view and stops to look, wrapping her arms around her body for warmth, as she looked at the container, as it had the White Tiger costume, mask and all, has been placed on a faceless store-window dummy for display purposes.

Julie sighs quietly as she stared at the costume, before she turned to the container next to it, in it there was a small display with several pieces of dark green rocks.

"Don't look at that..." The sound of Ava's voice was heard, which made Julie turn to look behind her, as she sees Ava walk up to Julie and stands next to her. "It was the White Tiger amulet once, but now it's just a pile of rocks now." Ava tells Julie, with a serious look on her face.

As Julie understood the containers, with the White Tiger amulet destroyed, it couldn't grant Ava its power, and there for, she hung up the mask and title of White Tiger.

Kaikaina was leaning her back on the control panel, while Metabee was sitting in the chair and Randy was stand next to it.

"OK, you got the gang together, where do we go from here, Jule?" Kaikaina asked Julie, with an inpatient scowl on her face, wanting to know what their next move was.

But Julie turned to look at Kaikaina, with a greatly sadden frown on her face, as she walks towards them. "There's nothing I can do... Nothing we can do... The past cannot be fixed, which means that this future can't be changed, no matter how horrible it is..." She tells them, as she lets what N. Tropy say to her sink in.

Metabee, Kaikaina and Ava looked shocked on what Julie is saying, she was giving up.

"So, that's it, just 'cause a creep with a clock for a hat, told you that changing the past is impossible, you're just gonna give up (?)" Randy said, with an unconvinced tone in his voice,

Julie turned to look at Randy, who had his arms crossed,

"But how do you know it's impossible if you don't give it a try, if I recall, before that fight in the museum thirty years ago, we've done the impossible before, just because we had hope... and each other..." Randy finished explaining, with a small smile on his face,

Julie had a deep expression on her face, taking in what Randy told her,

Kaikaina had a look of regret and sadden, as she pushes herself off and looked at Julie. "And maybe we lost sight of that..." Kaikaina tells her, with deepness in her voice.

Metabee then jumps off the chair and looked at Julie, "We all forgotten the bonds we had with each other, what made us a team and a family." He added in,

Ava walked up and puts her left hand on Julie's right shoulder, which made her turn to look at the old heroine. "I don't care if we can't change this future, I don't think any of us do anymore, all we care about is how we don't want you to stay in this crappy future, and all of us don't want to see you just give up and turn into us, old and voided of hope... We forgot how you always had that look of hope in the darkest of times, and if you lose that hope, then what S.P.D. stood for truly dies." Ava tells Julie, with a serious but concern look on her face.

Julie stared at Ava, with a speechless expression, before she turned to look at Kaikaina, Randy and Metabee, as they all nodded in agreement, as they all feel the same way for Julie, this place is a dump, but Julie doesn't deserve to rot here, none of them cared anymore about changing the past, all they cared was getting Julie back to her time.

Julie felt at the verge of crying as she was touched, thirty years of bitterness and anger, put aside for her, maybe S.P.D. isn't gone yet.

"So, all we gotta do is find N. Tropy, since he's the only one who can travel through time." Randy mentions, knowing that the only way to get Julie back to her own time, they had to find and make N. Tropy send her back.

Metabee turned to look up at Randy, "But what makes you think he's still around, he could've just blown the scene after Av showed up." He said to the blind ninja, having a feeling that N. Tropy left this time alright.

"He hasn't left, because he wants this." Julie spoke up, as she held up the Clock of Eternity in her right hand, holding it up to her team, as she knew that N. Tropy won't leave until he gets his hands on the cloak.

Some time pass, now at the abandon museum,

In the hallways, Julie, Randy, Metabee, Kaikaina and Ava were all walking down it, with Julie out of her coat and winter pants, and was now back in her normal clothes, with Julie holding the Clock of Eternity in her hands.

Each of them were ready for a fight, as they all looked around the hall,

"Tick-tock..." The sound of N. Tropy's voice was heard in one of the large gallery, which was full of clocks, the team then runs into the gallery and sees N, Tropy, as he was facing a wall of clocks. "... Tick-tock..."

N. Tropy then turned around and faced the team, with a smug smirk on his face, "It's funny, the fall of team S.P.D. started in this museum, thirty years, and now it's going to end here." He told them, as he steps forward and held up his left hand up, as he now glared at Julie. "Now, the Cloak of Eternity..."

Kaikaina steps forward, with a serious scowl on her face, "You're not gonna get your hands on it, but you are gonna send Julie back to her time." She told N. Tropy, telling him that he was gonna send Julie back, wither he wanted to or not.

"Yeah, there's five of us, and only one of you." Randy told N. Tropy, pointing out that he was out-numbered,

But then, the sound of large metal hitting the ground was heard, getting their attention, as the team turned and sees a large but old battle robot, as it stands up, facing them, as more robots appears from out of the shadows and stands before them, with N. Tropy smiling evilly.

"You'll be surprised on how just a little temporal distortion can make some old museum exhibits of some combat droids, work at factory condition again." N. Tropy told them, as he used some of his time technology to reactivate the combat droids.

The combat droids all surrounded team S.P.D., with bladed hands and weapons,

N. Tropy then pointed his right index finger at the team, "Kill them!" He ordered the droids, as all the droids charges at the team.

Julie, Randy, Kaikaina, Ava and Metabee all readied themselves for battle, as Julie turned to look at them with a serious look on her face.

"Don't worry; we've handled worst, just focus on N. Tropy." Julie told them, as she held the clock in her left hand and charges in, as some droids moves in to attack, but Julie easily smashes through them with a swing of her arms.

Leaving Randy, Kaikaina, Ava and Metabee there, all with grim but accepting looks on their faces,

"To quote Rick's last words to us... 'I'm proud of all of you...'" Randy said to Ava, Kaikaina and Metabee, with a small smile forming on his mouth.

Kaikaina then takes her blaster out and held it, as she had a sadden look on her face. "So, this really is the end, isn't it...?" She said,

Ava then puts her right hand on to Kaikaina's left shoulder, making to turn her head to look at her, as Ava gave her a shrug and small smirk. "But we lasted this long, seems almost right to go out fighting." She told Kaikaina,

Metabee turned his head to look at Randy, Kaikaina and Ava, "There a lot of say I wish I could have say, what we all could have say..." He tells them, with a look of regret in his eye.

"Never mourn the past, all that matters is now, and the fact that, after all these years, we're all together again, so no matter what the outcome of this fight, joining this team thirty-one years ago, was the greatest decision of my life." Randy told them, with a proud smile on his face.

Kaikaina and Metabee nodded in agreement, as Kaikaina had a smile on her face, while Ava removes her hand from Kaikaina's shoulder, with an accepting smile on her face.

They see a couple of droids charges in, but Metabee and Kaikaina quickly aimed her blaster and his gauntlet and fires rapidly, shredding the droids to pieces, as they were firing, a droid sneaks up behind them, and was about to strike Metabee and Kaikaina, but Ava leaps out, with his knifes in her hands, and she tackles the droid, stabbing it through the head, causing it to topple over to the floor.

Julie kept charging towards N. Tropy, as he quickly summoned his tuning fork and fires an energy blast at her, but Julie jumps up, jumping over the blast and plummets out to the ground, with her right fist up, when she reaches the ground, she tosses her fist at it, punching it and smashing a huge crater into the floor, creating a huge shockwave and shook the ground a bit, which made N. Tropy lose his balance, but managed to regain it, only for him to look up and see Julie, as she flies in with her jetpack and delivers a right punch, hitting him and sending him flying.

Metabee, Kaikaina, Randy and Ava had their back up against each other, as they were surrounded by droids, as Randy had his katana out and Ava, her knifes.

Kaikaina had a serious scowl, as she turned her head to look at Randy and Ava, "Come on, we gotta give Julie some more time, keep them busy!" She told them, as all four of them scattered and each charging towards a group of droids.

Kaikaina sprints up to a droid and jumps up, where she delivers a left punch to the bot's head, and she spun her body around and swings her right leg out, kicking the head and knocking it back before it regained its footing, the droid then held up it's right arm with a long blade in its forearm, as it strikes it down at Kaikaina, but she quickly jumps to the left and dodges the blade and she grabbed it's elbow and, by shifting her body around, Kaikaina lifts and flips it over her shoulder, slamming it to the ground, two more droids charges in, as Kaikaina turned and sees them, and she then runs towards them and jumps up towards one of them and delivers a double spinning helicopter kick, hitting the bot's face and knocking it to the ground.

But when Kaikaina lands, she looked up and sees that more droids were surrounding, each with blades, Kaikaina had a less then confident look, as they were moving in closer and closer, raising up their weapons at Kaikaina.

"Julie! I-I don't think..!" Kaikaina yelled out, as the droids completely surrounded her, and held all their blades and aimed them at Kaikaina,

Then all the blades strikes down at Kaikaina, each with great speed...

SLASH!

"GAAAHHH!" Kaikaina cried out in pain,

Julie stopped running as she turned to where Kaikaina was, and her face was struck with horror. "KAI, NO!" She yelled out in shock,

As the droids steps away, revealing Kaikaina, as she laid on the floor, dead as those strikes killed her...

Ava and Metabee stopped fighting as they both looked at Kaikaina's dead body on the floor, horrified at this...

Julie's speechless, shocked opened mouth expression then immediate change to a face of pure burning rage, as she turned to face N. Tropy, while gritting her teeth. "You'll pay for this, N. Tropy! I swear to God, I'll make you pay!" She yelled at N. Tropy, swearing to make him pay for Kaikaina's death.

As Julie flies towards N. Tropy at full speed and tackles him and the two of them flies across the room, before smashing through a wall.

While Julie was fighting N. Tropy, two droids runs towards Randy, as the blind ninja sprints towards them, holding his katana in his right hand, he leaps up, jumping over one of them and landing behind it, and the other droid runs in, but Randy quickly swings his sword, slashing through its torso, destroying it, Randy then quickly turned to the first droid and slashes it's upper body, destroying it as well.

Randy then turned and heard the footsteps of another droid, with its bladed right arm up, and its and Randy's blades clashes with each other, and the two of them with pushing against each other, before pushing off each other, stepping back and then swings their blades at each other again, Randy then swings his sword low, but the bot jumps over it, dodging it, as it had its bladed arm up to strike Randy from behind, but Randy quickly leaps and rolls, dodging the blade, as it was thrown down and clashes into the floor.

Randy then places both hands on the floor and delivers a swing right kick to the droid's knees, but it was ineffectual, as the bot then grabbed Randy's ankle and tosses him, also making him drop his katana and sending crashing through a glass display, before hitting the wall, Randy struggled to pushes himself back up, as he reached his right hand on his bandage and rips them off, and opens his eyes and angrily scowls at the droid and runs at the droid, at full speed.

Randy reaches the droid, where it swings it bladed arm, but Randy jumps and flips over it, landing behind it, and quickly picks up a dismembered droid's arm and turned around, swinging the arm at the charging droid, as the arm and it's blade clashes, knocking the droid back, as Randy lets go of the arm and spun his body around, delivering a left kick to the abdomen, knocking the droid back, Randy then spins and tosses his left fist, but the droid steps back, dodging the punch, Randy then spun again and swings his right leg, but the droid dodges again, Randy then throws out his left palm, but the droid spun and dodges the attack and then swings it's bladed arm at Randy, but he manages to quickly duck down and dodge it and grabbed it's exposed arm with both hands and Randy tosses the droid over his shoulder, tossing it to the ground.

Randy then walked over to where his katana was and picked it up, and he then walked over to the droid, which was pushing itself off the floor, Randy then stood before the droid and held up his sword, about to deliver the final strike, with Randy having a serious expression on his face.

But, sneaking from behind Randy, another droid was going to strike Randy before he could, but with a swift turn of his body, Randy swings his katana and slices the droid in half, destroying it.

But this left Randy opened and then...

SLASH!

"AAAAHHH!" Randy yelled out in pain, as the droid slashed his back with it's blade, as Randy's face was married with pain, as he drops to his knees.

Ava was crouched down, on top of a destroyed droid and as she pulls out her knifes from its head, she turned and saw Randy greatly wounded and she was shocked and horrified. "Cunningham! NO!" She yelled out, as she then charges towards the droid the strike Randy down.

Ava leaps out and tackles the droid, but it kicks it's legs out and sends Ava flying and smashing into a glass display, Ava quickly recovered and grabs a large shard of glass and tosses it at the droid, but as it was running towards Ava, it swings it's blade and easily shatters the glass, Ava runs towards it and quickly ducks and dodges it's blade swing and then delivers a right kick, knocking it to the ground, as the droid was on the ground, Ava jumps up and held up both her knifes at the droid, but it quickly gets up and swings its blade upward, slashing Ava and sending her flying across the room.

"GAH!" Ava yelled out in pain, as she hits the floor, hard and lied on her front, with a painful expression on her face, as she slowly pushes herself up, she looked down and sees a large slash on her chest, as blood began to seep.

Ava looked up and saw Randy, laying on his back, but he was also laying there dead, as he had succumbs to his wounds, Ava had a look of struggled, as she slowly began to crawl over to Randy, using every last ounce of strength she had left to make it to Randy.

When Ava reaches him, she held out her right hand, with great pain and struggle on her face, "Randy... Randy..!" She said to Randy's body, she reaches her hand out, but her hand drops as her body goes limp and falls, with the life in her eyes leaves as she succumbs to her slash wound and dies, with her head resting on Randy's chest, as the two old heroes laid there, dead.

The droid stands and looked at the two dead heroes,

"Hey! Tin-Head!" The sound of Metabee's yell was heard, getting the droid's attention, as it turned and saw Metabee, as he had his head tilted down and aimed his horn. "Eat it!" He told him, and fires his horn-missiles at it, hitting and exploding on contact, blasting the droid to pieces.

Smashing through the wall, back into the room, was Julie and N. Tropy, as the two fo them were holding on to N. Tropy's tuning fork, pushing against each other, as Julie was gritting her teeth as she glares daggers at him.

N. Tropy moved his eye sight to the right and sees the bodies, as he looks back at Julie with a grin on his face. "Look, you're friends are slain, you and the Medabot are the last one left, and after I finish you two off, I'll be known as the one who ended S.P.D!" He told Julie, mocking her.

But Julie glared at him, with an unfazed look, "That's the thing about S.P.D., it's not just team, it's an ideal, it's hope and even if every person is long dead after a thousand years... That hope will never die, and that hope before heroes, and thing about heroes..." Julie explained to N. Tropy, coldly,

As Julie then lets her right hand go and raised it back, "... They hit back, harder!" She yelled out, as Julie punches the main clock in N. Tropy's chest again, this time shattering it completely.

N. Tropy looked horrified as he steps back, and Julie let's go of his fork, as electricity crackles all over his body as he begins to grow younger before our eyes.

"No! Noooo! NOOOOOOO!" N. Tropy yelled out, as he ages in reverse, his body shrinks and his outfit starts to flap emptily, in addition, the pitch of his voice goes higher and higher, until finally, the sparks stop spitting and the armored suit lies deflated on the floor; no head is visible in the helmet.

Julie and Metabee both looked mystified, as they looked at the armor, Metabee reaches down and pulls the breastplate away, underneath, revealing N. Tropy, now aged down to baby.

Julie and Metabee stared at the now baby N. Tropy, amazed,

But now with N. Tropy defeated, Julie slowly turned and looked at Kaikaina, Randy and Ava's lifeless bodies lay there on the floor.

Julie walked a few feet, while Metabee looked at her with a sad look in his eye, before she stopped walking and drops to her knees.

"Randy... Ava... Kaikaina..." Julie quietly said, as she was now crying at the loss of her friends, while covering her face in her hands, crying into them.

Metabee walked over to her, and puts his right hand on her left shoulder, trying to comfort her, as he was now mourning the loss of Randy, Ava and Kaikaina as well.

"It's alright to cry, but they went out, the way they would have wanted, fighting for good, and fighting for each other, something any of us hasn't never done in a long time... before you came back, Julie." Metabee explained to her, telling her that they would have never fought together as a team again if it wasn't for Julie.

Julie slowly removes her hands on her face, as tears were trailing down her cheeks, as she turned her head to look at Metabee, with grief and sadden.

Metabee lean in, with a hopeful look, "Ava, Kai and Randy knew there was a chance they weren't gonna make it, but none of them cared, they only focused on you, and it was that, which made them, for the first time in years, a team and a family again..." He tells Julie,

Julie stared at Metabee, with a conflicting look, as she wiped some of her tears with her right forearm.

But then, from out of nowhere, a huge bright light emerges from the middle of the room, quickly getting Julie and Metabee's attention, as they both shielded their eyes with their arms, and when the light dies down, Julie and Metabee slowly removes their arms from their eyes and looked up.

here they saw, floating off the ground, was a slightly short, Caucasian, grumpy looking man, wearing a white rope and wore a tall ragged hat with two thin and long horn like pieces on each side of it.

In the grumpy looking guy's right hand, was a sceptre that had a hand like end that was holding an hourglass, as there were four horn pieces holding a blue orb,

The grumpy looking, old guy turned to look at Julie and Metabee, who both stared at him, looking completely dumbstruck, as they didn't know who this guy was or what was he doing here.

The old guy then turned and plants his feet on the ground and walks to the baby N. Tropy, as he was cooing, as the old guy was scowling with him.

"N. Tropy, you'd think banishing you to 31th century Earth would keep you outta trouble, but noooo..." The old guy told N. Tropy, as he held up his sceptre and a beam of light shoots out of the orb, hitting N. Tropy and he disappears.

The old guy sighed in frustration, "I'm gonna be cleanin' up his temporal spillage for a decade!" He said, really annoyed, before he turned to look at Julie and Metabee and gave them a small smile. "Now, let's set things right, shall we." He said to them,

Julie gets back on her feet and stands up, as she looked at the old guy, totally confused, "Who- who are you?" She asked, wanting to know who this guy was.

"Lord Simultaneous, watcher, lord and master of all time, and I'm guessing with that bright outfit in this bleak time, you ain't suppose to be here." The old guy introduced himself, while also asking Julie

Julie turned to look at Randy, Kaikaina and Ava's bodies, still lying there, before she turned to look at Simultaneous, with a pleading and sadden look on her face. "I just... wanna go home..." She said to him, only wanting to return back, thirty years back to the point where she left, back where this suffering would never have happen.

Simultaneous gave Julie straight face, "Mm, easy task," He told her as he turned around and lifted up the Time Sceptre, and a beam of energy shoots out and it creates a portal of blue energy.

Julie and Metabee were amazed by this as that portal looked exactly like the portal that Julie went through thirty years ago.

Simultaneous was standing next to the portal as he looked at Julie, "Just step through and you'll be sent back thirty years and three seconds after you're past self went through the first portal." Simultaneous explained to Julie,

Julie stared at the portal, before walking towards it, getting closer and closer, but before she could step through, she stops and turned to look at Metabee and Simultaneous, with an unconvinced and worried expression on her face.

"Wait, I need to know... is this future really inevitable, is this truly how my friends will spend the rest of their days, consumed by loss of hope and newly found hated for each other, even if I get back, will it change anything?" Julie asked them both, really wanting to know if this future will still happen, even if she goes back, will the team still break up and grows to hate each other, will A-Bomb still die and with Randy, Ava and Kaikaina, a painful end?

Metabee had a concerned look in his eye, but Lord Simultaneous sighed annoyed,

"(Sigh) Look, kid, I've been doin' this job since all of existence began, so I'll tell you what I always tell people who dances through time; you're just gonna have to go back and see for yourself." Simultaneous told Julie, as he couldn't tell Julie if this terrible future will or will not happen.

Julie looked at Simultaneous, still worried, and now saddens, as that wasn't something to assure her.

But Metabee walked up to Julie and looked up at her, as she notices him and looked down at Metabee. "Whatever happens, Julie... have fate that our past selves and the bonds we share." He told her, as he takes out his right hand, and held up the Clock of Eternity.

Julie then takes the clock in her left hand and looked at it; the artifact that started this whole mess, and she lowers her head for a moment, Julie then raises her head to look at the old Metabee, as she gives him a tender smile with her eyes full of tears.

Metabee had a proud look in his eye, as he takes a few steps back to join Simultaneous, the last thing she sees as she walks into the time portal.

It closes behind her and winks out.

Now back, thirty years in the past,

Now back in the museum gallery at the present time, N. Tropy's past self was about to escape through the wormhole with the Clock.

While White Tiger, Kaikaina, Metabee and Julie's past self was laying on the floor,

Before he could step walk through the time portal, Past N. Tropy turned to look at his defeated adversaries. "Ta-ta, S.P.D. I'd say I've enjoyed our time together, but that would be a lie." He mocked them, as he turns to make his exit.

Behind him, White Tiger and Past Julie, were watching N. Tropy, before Past Julie balled her hands into fists, as she looked angry, as she then roars in fury and flies straight at him, at great speed, as she wasn't gonna let him get away.

Past N. Tropy puts his right foot into the portal, but before he stepped all the way in, he stopped and turned to look, as he heard Past Julie yell. "What the-" He said, before Past Julie tackles him.

But her momentum carries them both through the portal, which quickly closes behind them and in an instant before White Tiger hurls herself across the room in attempt to follow them in, but she ends up sprawled on the floor.

Kaikaina and Metabee, spread out and looking at the now-empty case, both look shocked and confused on what just happened.

White Tiger stands up and looked around the room, with a look of panic and shock. "Julie!" She yelled out,

Kaikaina then turned to look at Metabee with confusion, "Um, where'd she-?" She was about to ask,

But she was then cut off, when a flash of light fills the gallery, followed by a second wormhole that opens behind Kaikaina and Metabee, coming out of the portal, was Julie as she was dumped out to land in a huddled kneeling position, cradling the Clock.

White Tiger, Kaikaina and Metabee all ran up to her, getting on their knees, as each of them looked worried and concerned.

"Jule!" Kaikaina said, looking scared,

"What happened?" Metabee asked, worried,

"Are you OK?" Tiger asked Julie, looking concerned,

But then, out of nowhere, Julie quickly gets up and hugs White Tiger, Kaikaina and Metabee, hugging them all, catching them off-guard.

Julie hugged them tightly, as she had tears streaming down, after what happened in the future, as she has never been so, so happy to see them, all alive.

Kaikaina and Tiger both stared a look with each other, as the two of them were confused, "Uh, Julie... You OK?" Kaikaina asked Julie,

Julie then broke her hug, as she wipes her tears away with her left hand, as she looked up at Metabee, Kaikaina and White Tiger, with a bright smile. "History said the clock disappeared..." She said, before she lifted up her right hand, where she was holding the Clock of Eternity.

"... But history was wrong..!" Julie finished, as she was so happy to know that the future isn't set in stone, which means that horrible future is nothing more then a bad memory.

Sometime later, after returning the clock, it was night and now back at the Triskelion Island.

Julile, Kaikaina, Ava and Metabee were entering the SHED, where, Julie looked ahead and sees Randy, as he was walking by.

Julie smiled with joy, at seeing Randy "RANDY!" She yelled out in happiness, as she ran up to him and hugs him, to Randy confusion.

Julie then breaks off the hug and looked at Randy, smiling, "You can see!" She said, happy that Randy still had his eye sight and wasn't blind.

Randy looked confused, as he didn't know how to replied to that comment. "Uh, thanks for noticing..?" He said, awkwardly.

"Hey, what's with the yellin'?" The sound of A-Bomb's voice enter the room, immediately getting Julie attention,

As she looked over Randy's right shoulder, and saw A-Bomb, standing behind Randy and looking at Julie confused.

"RICK!" Julie yelled at complete joy at the sight of A-Bomb and ran to A-Bomb, leaping up and wrapped her arms around A-Bomb's neck and rested them on his shoulders, giving a hug, surprising A-Bomb.

Seeing A-Bomb alive was the happiest thing for Julie to see,

"Uh... Julie..!?" A-Bomb said, as his face was blushing, getting more red then blue, as he didn't know why Julie was hugging him.

Julie then turns her head to the left and began giving A-Bomb a number of kisses on his left cheek, which made A-Bomb go nose-less and Blank White Eyes, as his face now completely gone red from Julie kissing his cheek.

Julie then stops kissing as she lets go of A-Bomb and gently drops down, as she still had a bright smile.

Ava, Randy, Metabee and Kaikaina all walked up to Julie, with each of them look weirded out by Julie happy behaviour, when they left of the mission, she was pretty upset over what happened with her cake and the one year anniversary, but now, she's acting like they haven't seen each other in years.

"Bark!" The sound got Julie's attention as she looked down and saw Chomp, looking up at her,

Julie gasped in joy and she picks up Chomp and hugs the baby triceratops, "Oh, Chomp!" Julie said, as she smiled and was hugging him close.

Randy, Ava, Kaikaina, A-Bomb (whose face goes back to normal) and Metabee all looked at Julie, and each of them had a wipe of guilt hits them.

As each of them stared a look with each other, knowing what they need to do for Julie,

"Uh, Julie, I know it maybe a little late but, we're sorry about your cake and... y'know..." Ava said to Julie, making Julie turned to look at Ava, surprise to hear an apologies.

Julie saw Kaikaina, Randy, A-Bomb and Metabee nodded in agreement, as they apologizes as well.

"We should have celebrated today with you; today should be celebrated by all of us." Metabee tells Julie, looking happy, while Kaikaina smiled, nodding in agreement.

"It shows how far we've come as a team and as a family." A-Bomb tells Julie, with pride in his smile.

Randy then quickly walks over to the coffee table, where there was a box, as he picked it up and walked back to Julie, as he held it with both hands, Julie looked at the box confused, wondering what was inside.

A-Bomb smiled, as he reached his right hand out, grabbing the top of the box and flipping it over, revealing a cake inside, with a number "1" written on it with icing.

Julie sees the cake and started laughing, as she was also touched that Randy and A-Bomb got her a new cake while they were gone.

"Is it too late to start celebrating?" Kaikaina asked, hoping it wasn't,

Julie smiled, as tears formed in the corner of her eyes, "Never," She said back,

"Alright, let's get this party started, right!" Randy said with a smile, as he quickly moves to the coffee table, as Ava and Kaikaina followed him, as they two of them were laughing, while Metabee was getting some movies for the team to watch while having cake.

Julie and A-Bomb watches their teammates go, both with smiles on their face, while Julie was carrying Chomp, as he fell asleep in her arms.

Julie was now really convinced that the future she saw will never come to pass, as she now understood what future Metabee told her.

'Have fate that our past selves and the bonds we share...'

She knew that as long as they stay together, through the hard times, they will never falter or lose hope in each other, they'll stay strong together for a long time.

A-Bomb then looked at Julie, and had a curious look, while blushing a bit, "Uh, hey, Julie, don't mind me asking but, what was with the hug and... kisses..?" A-Bomb asked, wondering why when Julie saw him, she leapt into his arms and kissed him on the cheek.

Julie then just realized what she did, as jumped in shock, as her eyes goes Blank White Eyes, and she quickly started blushing as well.

"Uh, well, I-uh, it was, um, very tough mission and I really... really..." Julie tried to think of what to say, but couldn't.

A-Bomb calms a bit, as he smiled at her, laughing a bit at watching her muttering, "What did happen on your mission?" He asked her,

Julie stops muttering, as her eyes goes back to normal, as she looked up at A-Bomb, she calms down and puts a smile on her face. "It's a long story, but I think the best answer to your previous question is... I really missed you, Rick..." She tells him, with a loving smile on her face.

A-Bomb smiled brightly at that, as the two of them stared at each other,

"Yo, Rick, Jule! If ya'll want a slice, you better hurry and you better have a club with ya (!)" Randy told Julie and A-Bomb, as he, Ava, Kaikaina and Metabee were at the living room area, on the couch, already having some cake, while they were all laughing.

Julie smiled, as she quickly moves to the couch, carrying Chomp to join in with them.

While A-Bomb looked at his team and smiled with pride, as he was thinking, today was a milestone of them, one full year they've been together, going from team to friends and finally, a family.

A-Bomb couldn't ask for a better one...

Meanwhile, in the cold, snowy mountains of Greenland,

There was a hidden S.H.I.E.L.D. prison in one of the mountains,

Deep within the bowels of the prison,

In a seemingly empty room, the blast doors slides open, revealing the people who opened it, entering the room, was Red X, Black Velocity and now, Garnet Toycross.

The two masked villains walks up to a control panel in the near centre of the room, where Red X started pressing some buttons.

While Garnet looked worried, "A-are you sure he's here?" The black-winged girl asked Red X and Black Velocity,

Black Velocity turned to look at Garnet, "Taskmaster told us that this was the place, and besides, this prison was built to hold this one guy, so he has to be here." He told Garnet,

"Look alive, people," Red X told the two of them, as he punches in one last button,

Then, in the centre of the room, something was rising for the floor, revealing to be a large glass tank, which was full with some strange green water.

But inside the tank, was a 18 year old guy, he was tall, with tanned skin and a muscular figure, as he was only wearing black shorts, similar to A-Bomb's, his face had two long scars shaped like a cross, coming down from his closed eyes and he had dark green hair that spikes high above his head along with a pony tail that drapes behind his head.

The 18 year old guy was in the water, with his eyes closed, as it looked like he was unconscious, while he had restraints on both wrists and there was connected to two large chains, which were chained to the floor in the tank.

After the tank full comes out of the floor, Red X, Garnet and Black Velocity got a good look at him,

Red X then presses another button, this made the tank drain out all of the green through small grates at the bottom, as the water drains, the guy was emerged from the water, when the water was off him, he started to stir, slowly waking up, as the water completely drains out.

Red X steps away from the control panel and walked up to face the guy, with his arms crossed, "Wake up, Mr. Kyoya Tategami..." He told the guy, telling his name,

The guy's whose name was Kyoya, slowly opens his eyes, revealing sharp blue lion-like eyes, as he had a tired expression on his face, as he darts his eyes around, to see where he was.

"Wh-Where am I..?" Kyoya said, with a struggle in his voice,

Red X walk up to the glass, looking at Kyoya straight in the eye, "That's not important, what is important is that it's time for you to have a long overdue family reunion with your mother... Reese Drake..." He told Kyoya,

At just hearing Reese's name be said, Kyoya's eyes widen in realization, before his eyes changed into a scowl of rage and revenge.

Reese's other son and A-Bomb's older brother... What has the Vanguards now unleashed..?

(Author's notes - Dun-dun-DUN! Another cliffhanger, on the counts and thoughts of me giving up on my writing or that I was dead, believe me, they are greatly exaggerated, I would say is there if there was something that had happened that would put me off my writing for a while, but I will see this through to the end. Great episode in my opinion, good action, dark overtones and drama, this episode was merely a taste of what's to come in the future, and the ending was just as great, with the reveal of one of A-Bomb's siblings and be ready for the next episode, it's going to be a doozy.)
