—Chaos Unleashed—
The base erupted into chaos. Children tore through soldiers mercilessly, leaving none alive.
In the control room, Hakimi grinned, releasing more prisoners and unchaining five Slay Beasts. Spark immediately took control, sending them on a killing spree.
A message from Demon flashed on his screen.
Disable the force field, gathering room.
Hakimi glanced at the cameras. Gunther stood with Demon. A smirk spread across Hakimi's face.
"You daredevil."
He followed orders without hesitation.

—Metal vs. Stepping Wolf—
Gunther froze, surprised by Demon's sudden move. He ripped metal from the walls, shaping it into a gun.
Demon tilted his head, smiling.
"Expected that."
Floating guns surrounded Gunther. Coldly, he spat:
"Any last words for that dumb choice?"
Demon stayed calm.
"Yes—Stepping Wolf."
Gunther fired. Bullets screamed across the room.

—New Recruits—
At Ascenders High, students filled the training room. The instructor listed names:
"Bunny Clifford. Danny Rinehart. Bella Citlali."
These weren't just students—they were joining the Special Force.
Some muttered:
"Just letting newbies in? They don't even know how to operate."
Bunny bristled. She opened her mouth, but Delta cut her off:
"Handpicked by Lexy herself."
Silence fell. Grumbles died. Respect replaced doubt.
A senior barged in. Urgency in his voice. Delta bolted from the room, instructing students to follow.

—Demon vs. Gunther—
In the gathering room, Demon danced between bullets with Stepping Wolf. His smirk sharp.
"How slow. I can practically see your bullets."
Gunther's face reddened. He summoned more guns, firing a relentless barrage.
"How long have you been planning this!?"
Demon closed the distance effortlessly, inches from him.
"Not more than day one of me being here."
Gunther jumped back, flinging bullets faster. Panic flickered in his eyes. Desperation made him summon an iron suit—revealing his metal-controlling power.
Demon exhaled sharply.
"I will devour you."
He surged forward. Gunther leapt into the air, scanning the cramped room.
"This room's too small to maneuver!" he thought.
Demon's voice rang out, wicked and gleeful:
"Gunther! Let's play—until death separates us!"
Gunther screamed, voice trembling:
"You crazy bastard! Go back to hell and burn!"

—Sonia's Wrath—
Elsewhere, only a handful of soldiers remained.
Sonia drove her blade into one with lethal precision. Around her, more girls arrived, faces twisted in rage, each settling personal scores with cold efficiency.

—Explosion!—
A massive blast shook the base.
BOOM!
Gunther and Demon flew out of the room, spinning mid-air. Injuries or debris didn't slow them; the fight continued.
They crashed violently into the main compound, locked in combat, unstoppable.
