Chapter 60:

Ackerman Faces Exile! (Part 1)

Saved By The Bell!


(With the day nearing another sunset, Mike along with Gregory and Richard were awaiting Wyatt's arrival into the location of their meeting.)

"Mike: ..."
"Gregory: ..."
"Richard: ..."

(With the door opening moments later, Wyatt has arrived as the four then sat down in a spacious yet isolated room to speak about the incident.)

"Wyatt: Sorry for keeping y'all waiting."
"Mike: No worries, Wyatt. You got here safe?"
"Wyatt: Yeah, that experimental jet of yours got me here in an hour. Anyway, no need to sugarcoat anything, what did you pick up?"
"Mike: Your family was killed by the AOSE Cyborgs."
"Wyatt: AOSE Cyborgs..?"
"Gregory: Androids Of Superhuman Extermination. They're data collecting battle equipped mechanoids that continue to evolve by the day."
"Richard: Gregory here fought one of those Cyborgs and brought back its body for further examination. It copied his entire fighting style and predicted every attempt he threw and either found a way to counter it or go with a more effective attack in exchange."
"Gregory: It's not only me that encountered with these things, there's hundreds of thousands of these things across the country. The Mythical Five and even some stationed Marines were in combat with these things."
"Richard: I've received a report from Pandoni regarding these Cyborgs too. He came in contact with three Cyborgs assaulting Superhumans during his visit in Downtown Philadelphia."
"Wyatt: So these things are what killed my family... Mike, do you have any leads on who created them..?"
"Mike: We've tried everything to get the information, Black Market dealers, specialized hackers, I even used every possible gateway into finding information, but nothing could get through. Whoever created these things wiped their name from the internet and made sure nobody could pursue them."
"Wyatt: Damn it...! You said these things are able to calculate data and use that recorded fighting style to their advantage..?"
"Mike: Yes, it's a large possibility there's been a Cyborg somewhere collecting data from one of your fights and is using your fighting style too."

(With Wyatt tipping his hat to hide his face he'd slam his hand onto a very sturdy table as the loud bang was necessary for him to express his anger.)

"Wyatt: My darling wife... My children, my family.. all killed by technological warfare...? Has there been anyone who at least bought them..?"
"Mike: Xin Sui. That bastard managed to get his hands on a AOSE Cyborg once, I know he'll be able to do it again."
"Gregory: The day we ask him for help is the day I wear pink."
"Richard: Well we may have no other choice in the future. But if we're gonna need intel, he's the only asshole we got that knows about the Cyborgs."
"Wyatt: ...Actually, if there's a chance-"

(With a loud echoing boom heard outside of the secluded location, all four were on their guards, ready for anything as echoing footsteps were heard approaching the room. With Mike clenching his hands and ready to punch, he'd sense the plan of attack and with the small usage of the Scroll of Agility, he'd anticipate a break-in through the wall where Wyatt stands and thus with an AOSE Cyborg blasting itself through the wall, Wyatt and Mike would simultaneously deliver destructive punches to the Cyborg blasting it into the ground and Mike stomping it's head into metal bits.)

"Wyatt: The fuck was that..?!"
"Mike: It was the Cyborg we talked about.. But how did-"

(With Mike immediately staring at the sky, he'd notice a change of color, red surrounded by shades of grey. With Mike rushing to the outside, the rest would join him only to see that the war.. has truly begun. Beijing along with the entirety of China was under siege by the AOSE Cyborgs, attacking and slaughtering innocent Superhumans left and right. With Mike screaming to the top of his lungs in anger, Gregory immediately activated his SOS signal, indicating that the Marines are needed as he'd place on his special communicator on his ear, calling for reinforcements.)

"Mike: NO...! NOOOO!!!"
"Gregory: THIS IS FORMER CAPTAIN GREGORY ACKERMAN! LOCATION: BEIJING, CHINA! THE COUNTRY IS UNDER ATTACK, REPEAT! THE COUNTRY IS UNDER ATTACK!"
"Richard: Son! You need to find your friends!"
"Mike: ..DAMN IT..!"

(With Mike immediately calling for Renzo and the others, there was little to no response but all was heard was the sound of metal clashing with metal.)

"Mike: ...Shit.. Shit.. SHIT!"
"Richard: Find them..! We'll be alright!"

(With Richard delivering one destructive punch through the chest of an incoming Cyborg, he'd slam it into the ground before smashing its head into the ground.)

"Gregory: Wyatt, we need you to stick with us!"
"Mike: ..Alright, you guys let me know when Wyatt gets out of China safely!"

(With Mike rushing out of the area, AOSE Cyborgs were destroying Beijing left and right as many were scanning for Mike but could not find him due to his speed. Mike would then place in an earbud and repeats the following words:)

"Mike: This is Michael Ackerman, requesting the finished prototype! Code 8617425!"

(With the code accepted and a chime was heard, Mike would make it to the top of a business building in Beijing, staring at the destruction the Cyborgs has caused... With a quick moment passing by, a large crate was dropped off at Mike's location by a high speed drone before flying back to the Global Government Headquarters in China.)

"Mike: It's time I fight fire with fire."

(Meanwhile at Hanying Academy, students and champions inside the campus were defending their ground, including the group as Zoro's swords were able to split through metal like butter.)

"Zoro: What the hell are these things?!"
"Henry: These are AOSE Cyborgs! Don't let them scan you, they'll mimic your fighting styles!"
"Raneri: They'll copy how we fight?! How do we beat them if that happens?!"

(With another AOSE Cyborg implanted to the ground and its head punched into bits by Renzo, he'd then stare down the next wave of AOSE Cyborgs.)

"Renzo: We fight until they fall first! I FEAR NO CYBORG!"

(Renzo would then draw two sickles from his backside, rushing to the incoming wave of Cyborgs targeted for him as he'd slash and cut through them easily. With Raneri then fighting on all fours, returning to her primal self, she'd enter her own awakening, faster than what the Cyborgs has predicted and slaughters through as many as she can. Meanwhile, Henry and Daxton were working together to fight off their wave of Cyborgs as Tashiro was backing them up.)

"Daxton: These things are copying my every move!"
"Henry: It'll read your attacks the second you remain still, you need to outsmart the Cyborgs before they have a chance to predict your next attack! Like so!"

(With Henry fighting with a dagger in hand and not his whips, he'd take on two of the Cyborgs, including the one Daxton was fighting. With Henry focused on the fight, he was now cutting through exposed pieces of the metal and slashing through important connected ligaments in order to weaken or shut the Cyborgs down. With one Cyborg down and another standing to fight, it would copy Gregory's Boxing fighting style as it would change positions to a southpaw.)

"Henry: Oh? You've learned Gregory's boxing techniques, this'll be fun!"

(With Henry being careful but smiling at the challenge, he would parry any incoming punch with his armored forearm before sliding inward for a stab to the chest. With the dagger blocked, the Cyborg would throw a heavy bomb with the right fist, Henry swiftly dodging it, entrapping the arm underneath Henry's pit and allowing Henry to relentlessly stab into the socket, severing the arm after multiple deep cuts and finish off the Cyborg with quick stabs around the body and slits the cords keeping the head in place, killing and shutting it down instantly.)

"Daxton: Whoa...!"
"Henry: You have to predict them before they can predict you."

(With a loud bang of bone crushing through metal, Tashiro's left hand would have indented the Cyborg's chest as Tashiro then pulls out its battery, throwing it on the ground and crushing it, killing off a Cyborg of his own.)

"Tashiro: Lets keep going, we gotta find the others!"
"Ji-Hun: EVERYONE!"

(With Ji-Hun rushing over with Senri, Henry and Daxton with Tashiro were regrouped.)

"Senri: Does anyone know what the hell is happening..?!"
"Henry: It's the AOSE Cyborgs. These things are dangerous.."
"Ji-Hun: AOSE...?"
"Henry: ...Androids Of Superhuman Extermination."
"All: ..!"
"Henry: These things are not only able to scan our fighting styles, they're programmed to kill Superhumans and once it has you in their database, it's impossible to escape from them."
"Daxton: B-But.. We can beat them all, right..?!"
"Henry: We have no choice. If we give up now, we all die."
"Ji-Hun: Speaking of, Renzo and Raneri are both in trouble! We have to go help them!"
"Tashiro: Everest is right."
"Henry: No time to waste, come on!"

(With the group then hurrying down to the campus to fight, even the Mythical Five's own dojo was under attack by the AOSE Cyborgs, attempting to kill Wukong as the Five worked together and fought alongside their master to handle the Cyborgs.)

"Sun Jie: This is worst than I've imagined... These things are truly formidable enemies!"

(With Tuzi's rabbit like fighting style managing to shut down multiple Cyborgs at once, Wukong and Xiangya would work together to defend their master, Feng would take flight to the skies and lands aerial assaults, clawing through the metal easily and Gui with the strength of his shell on his back would crush the metal and even launch most Cyborgs down the mountains.)

"Wukong: Family, regroup!"

(With all of the five and Sun Jie joining them, the AOSE Cyborgs seemed relentless, more returning from their fall down the mountain or were new arrivals.)

"Wukong: Master, can you handle another fight?"
"Sun Jie: At the age I am now, it seems unlikely. But I'll defend my home and my children..."
"Gui: Master..."
"Sun Jie: On my mark, children. We fight another wave."

(With the Five holding their positions and Sun Jie in his original martial arts stance, he'd begin to count to three.)

"Sun Jie: One..."

(With the slide of all six foots by one inch, the Cyborgs were anticipating them to strike first.)

"Sun Jie: Two..."

(With no loss of eye contact for a mere moment, they were all then calm and at ease, ready to fight once more.)

"Sun Jie: THREE!-"

(Suddenly, the entire wave of AOSE Cyborgs was brought down by heavy gunfire from the skies, shocking all six of them before the Cyborgs were then destroyed and shutting down as their systems were beyond repair. Surprising Wukong the most was a fully armored battle suit with powerful weapons within its system, including a highly powered minigun. With the mechanoid then descending to the ground and walks to the Mythical Five and their master, it was revealed to have been Michael Ackerman behind the suit.)

"Mike: What do you guys think?"
"Wukong: ..Michael! When did you build this..?!"
"Mike: It was a secret for a good half a year now. It hasn't been tested yet so I decided a good time as now to make that happen."
"Wukong: As usual, you're always a punctual individual."
"Tuzi: Whoa!! Is this a battle suit?!"
"Mike: Well... Yeah it is."

(With Tuzi in shock in awe, she'd circle the entire battle suit Michael is currently in, asking rampant questions out of interest.)

"Sun Jie: Michael Ackerman, I owe you a heartfelt thank you for assisting us. The Cyborgs attempted to attack Wukong during his training."
"Mike: It's alright, is everyone else okay?"
"Gui: I'm okay, thank you Michael."
"Feng: Came at the right time, thank you."
"Tuzi: We're all good!"
"Xiangya: ..."
"Michael: Xiangya, I know you don't trust my family and you don't trust me. But I can assure you, we're all not bad."
"Xiangya: ...Thank you."
"Wukong: The situation down in Beijing has gotten worst, we've tried our hardest to descend to help, but after the Cyborgs kept coming back, it was almost difficult to get down the mountain."
"Mike: With the way things are going, you guys may have to stay up here and defend your dojo."
"Feng: It's probably the best plan going forward."
"Sun Jie: But Mike, what's the plan for you?"
"Mike: I'm going to slaughter every single Cyborg I can and ensure victory."
"Tuzi: Are your friends going to be okay too??"

(It suddenly dawns on Mike that the group is in danger...)

"Mike: ..SHIT!"
"Wukong: Mike! Don't panic, they'll handle themselves but get there fast!"
"Mike: ...Got it. You guys are gonna be alright..?"
"Wukong: We'll handle whatever comes up to the dojo. This wasn't our first defense."
"Mike: Alright, and Master Jie. Please don't overdo it."

(He'd nod his head once to show that he understands as Mike then calmed down and reconnects his helmet with the battle suit, the helmet then locks in place as Mike then ascends into the air before rocketing back into the city of Beijing.)

"Mike: This damage is insane... What the hell could be doing this?!"

(With the roar of thunder in the skies, it has not taken Mike's attention as he was nearing the area of Hanying Academy. Suddenly, Mike would land onto the ground in a Cyborg sieged area, his battle suit then switching his left hand to the minigun and with a loud hum, swarms of AOSE Cyborgs were rushing at Mike for combat.)

"Mike: Kneel before your God, YOU DAMN CLANKERS!"

(With Mike firing penetrative rounds of ammunition with the minigun on the left and slashing through Cyborgs with his right arm transformed into a sharp and tactical blade. With Cyborgs being destroyed left and right, Mike would retransform both arms to normal before coming across another rampaging swarm of Cyborgs.)

"Mike: ..Huh. Maybe I should give this new weapon of mine a chance."

(With Mike's right arm transfiguring itself into a cannon, Mike would begin feeding the Kinetic Energy the suit has collected into the cannon, powering up both the suit and the cannon into full power with the color blue coating every crevasse and gap in the machine to showcase a colored mix of blue and dark grey.)

"Mike: It's READY!"

(With the cannon going silent for a mere moment, a massive flash of blue light would shine across the city of Beijing, firing a high speed and destructive Kinetic Energy Beam with the cannon. With the cannon then smoking in overheat, the entire swarm was completely obliterated as Mike has won and reforms his arm from a cannon to back to normal. With no more Cyborgs left, Mike would rocket onward to Hanying Academy as a Cyborg whom was crawling out of the crater was then killed as its head was stepped on and crushed by an unknown survivor of the blast. Meanwhile once again at the academy, the group would have found each other as they've all took the fights as serious as they can, defeating Cyborgs back and forth as they seemed endless.)

"Henry: Is everyone alright?!"
"Ji-Hun: Yeah! These things are a workout alright!"

(With Ji-Hun battling with a metal bat, he'd fight one Cyborg at a time as the previous ones were knocked down to a knee then decapitated by the metal bat. With Zoro, Renzo and Raneri racking up the most Cyborg kills, it was now a contest between the three. Zoro with 147 kills, Renzo with 125 and Raneri with 133 as the quickness from these three allowed the remaining members group to handle one Cyborg at a time.)

"Raneri: HAHAHAAAAA!! I'VE NEVER HAD SO MUCH FUN KILLING BEFORE!!"
"Zoro: THIS CYBORG'S MINE!"
"Renzo: FIVE DOWN IN A ROW!"

(With Daxton and watching the contest between the three, he'd stand in disbelief knowing how powerful they actually are with and without an awakening.)

"Daxton: To think I could ever come close to them..."
"Henry: Daxton! You alright?"
"Daxton: Yeah.. Just mesmerized at these guys. They mastered their awakening and can kill as much as they please, I can't pass them..!"
"Henry: Just got to train harder Daxton!"
"Senri: Just admit you're a f*king coward Daxton and leave things to us!"

(With Senri then expecting another Cyborg behind her, she'd release a steel blade in her right boot, slashing off the Cyborg's legs with a swift and fast kick before redirecting her leg back her way, decapitating it's head.)

"Daxton: Forget it!"

(With Daxton now revved up for the fight, he'd rush down an AOSE Cyborg, challenging it himself as his destructive fists were colliding with the steel, leading the two to collide in a test of strength.)

"AOSE Cyborg #311: Daxton Hunter, Threat Level: 6, engaging cautious measures to neutralize threat."
"Daxton: Oh you think I'm just a Human buddy..?! SCAN ME AGAIN!"

(With Daxton's strength increasing by his pure aggression, the Cyborg would then rescan Daxton and after it's eyes switches from yellow, which means caution to red which means danger, it would begin to increase it's overclocking stage for further damage. Before the test of strength could conclude, the Cyborg was then blasted with multiple rounds of ammunition, shutting down the Cyborg instantaneously and shocking all who has heard the roar of gunfire.)

"Daxton: ...?!??! ..No. Fucking. Way.. MIKE?!"

(With Mike revealed to have arrived in the battle suit, he was relieved to see that the group was okay.)

"Mike: You're all safe, that's good..."
"Senri: ...Mike..?! Is that a-"
"Mike: Battle suit? Yeah it is."
"Henry: So that's what you were working on!"
"Mike: Well surprise!! We can compliment my battle suit later. For now, it is time for me to get to work."

(As Mike then walks towards the rampaging swarms of Cyborgs, Raneri, Renzo and Zoro would at last notice Mike in his battle suit and out of awe for his invention, they'd immediately back away to let Mike handle them from here on out. With the cybernetic hum of the battle suit's core and the hum of his minigun carrying limitless ammunition, he'd then close the mask of the helmet and stares down every Cyborg.)

"Mike: I'll show you scrap-heads why I'm the Most Feared God."

(With every final swarm of AOSE Cyborg at high speeds rushes to Mike, he'd fire endless rounds of ammunition, multiple Cyborgs collapsing and shutting down in all directions. With Mike activating the jets underneath his feet, he'd soar through the waves, slashing Cyborgs on his right with his tactical blade and firing countless bullets a second at every Cyborg on his left. With Mike then flying into the skies, he'd transfigure his left arm from a minigun into the same Kinetic Cannon from before, firing numerous kinetically charged orbs, creating destructive explosions as the group were as far away from the fight as they could be but only getting a fantastic view of the fight with Mike versus every AOSE Cyborg in the area.)

"Senri: ...He's so cool."
"Raneri: ..Yeah. The way he's looking out for us.. He's like.. a father."
"Zoro: He's the last person I'd ever want to be called a son by. Yuck."
"Renzo: Henry, you said, he was working on that battle suit? When was this?"
"Henry: Well.. It was a few months actually. After Daxton won the Chun-See-Yoon Men's Championship, Mike went to work on a project he kept a secret for months. Only people who ever knew about it was the Gods and me."
"Daxton: So why did he tell you of all people?"
"Henry: Because, it's not my first time handling technology like that. I'm an archeologist, sure. But sometimes, having another hobby doesn't hurt. It's a good thing to have multiple interests."
"Daxton: ...Wow, sorry for asking. Now I feel like a jerk..."
"Henry: Hahaha! It's alright, you used to grow ghost chili peppers too right?"
"Raneri: Ghost... chili peppers?"
"Daxton: It's a spicy kind of pepper that'll burn off your tongue immediately."
"Senri: ..The time I ate that thing before... I'll never forget that damn pain..."
"Raneri: It hurts?!"
"Senri: If you can't handle spice at all, yes."
"Raneri: Daxton, grow me peppers!"
"Daxton: When all of this is over, I'll gladly grow you one."

(With the group conversating and continuing to watch Mike fight, multiple AOSE Cyborgs would launch themselves into the sky to target Mike only for Mike to catch them right in range. Both of his arms would then transfigure it's components into a mega cannon, firing scorching heat at full power, sending the Cyborgs back down to the ground, charred and eliminated. With Mike's suit at low battery, he'd then descend to the ground at fast speeds, transfigures his arms back to their normal state and with backfire from the cannons, he'd backflip onto the ground, returning his left and right arm into tactical blades, slaughtering the remaining Cyborgs their are while maintaining power to the suit.)

"Mike: COME ON YOU CYBERNETIC PIECES OF SHIT! CAN'T LAND A HIT ON ME HUH?! YOU'RE ALL WEAPONLESS, ONLY BUILT FOR HAND TO HAND COMBAT, YOU'RE PREY TO MY BEAUTIFUL SUIT!"

(With the last two AOSE Cyborgs remaining, Mike would reveal his black oil coated blades and transfigures both arms into normal and at last, releases himself from the battle suit, allowing it to fly back to the Global Government's Headquarters to recharge. Mike would then clench his fists as the final two Cyborgs would both charge at Mike, allowing him the chance to fight a two on one, which did not make a difference. With Mike focused on defensive martial arts, he'd use the power of the Scroll of Agility to blitz the Cyborg on his left with a barrage of punches and ripping its battery out of the chest, forcing the Cyborg to shutdown and collapse. With the AOSE Cyborg on his right choosing the best method of fighting style, it would then engage in combat as Mike flawlessly yet in an unserious matter is slapping away its attacks before impaling his hand at high speeds through its chest and battery, forcing the Cyborg to malfunction fatally before shutting down.)

"Mike: It's over."

(With group at last reconnecting, including Tashiro joining them, they were all praising Mike, including asking about the battle suit.)

"Zoro: You really wanted to show off with that battle suit, didn't you?"
"Mike: You got me, it was finally done and whatever just happened.. was the best to use that suit."
"Senri: Come to think of it, why the hell did those Cyborgs come out of nowhere and start wrecking havoc..?"
"Renzo: Because they were targeting me. It all started with six Cyborgs attacking me simultaneously until Ji-Hun ended up backing me up. When we got outside, the entire city of Beijing was under siege by these things."
"Ji-Hun: By the time we wrapped up with our fight, the whole academy got swarmed with these things."
"???: Everyone!"

(Approaching the group in a hurry was Lai Qinggang, the headmistress of Hanying Academy, A.K.A, Mistress."

"Lai: Is everyone okay..?!"
"Mike: Yeah, we're all good. I got here in time and took care of the rest of the Cyborgs."
"Lai: Thank goodness... Most of my students have suffered bad injuries, if it's not too much trouble, we'd need your help."
"Ji-Hun: Not at all, anyone who's able to lend a hand come on!"
"Senri: Zoro, do you have any of those medicine potions on you?"
"Zoro: I can make a few recovering drinks, but it's got to go to the most injured."
"Tashiro: I can assist with any major wounds."
"Lai: Good enough, come on-"

(With the ground suddenly shaking around the entire campus, cracks were emerging from the ground as the group stood as far back as they could before tanky AOSE Cyborgs emerged from the ground, eight of them targeting Renzo and Daxton as the biggest threats as the group were intimidated.)

"Tanky AOSE Cyborg #1: Targets Identified, Renzo Akikatsu, Daxton Hunter. Preparing Extermination Phase."

(With four Cyborgs each rushing at the two, Daxton and Renzo prepared for combat as Mike, Raneri, Senri and Zoro rushed in at the same time all four striking all four robots on each side, separating everyone with their own robot to fight as Henry and Ji-Hun manages to get Lai out of safety and help evacuate the students out of the outside grounds.)

"Raneri: MORE OF THEM?! I THOUGHT WE SLAUGHTERED THEM ALL!"
"Zoro: These Cyborgs are alot bigger than the first ones we've killed! Are these their enforcers or something?!"
"Senri: Hell if I know! But we have to put these hunks of junk down too!"

(With Senri nearing a fatal blow on the Cyborg, Tashiro would kick the Cyborg away as he volunteered to take on one of the tanky Cyborgs.)

"Tashiro: I'll take this one!"
"Senri: NO FAIR, I WAS GONNA KILL IT!"
"Tashiro: I gotta get some action in!"
"Senri: GRRRR...!!!"

(With Senri irritated, she'd then vent her frustrations in physical violence by slashing her strong blade from her boot onto one of the legs of the tanky Cyborg, realizing they're upper body stronger but not in the legs. With that advantage in hand, Senri would all the strength in her body, tackle the Cyborg and began to crush its head in with the back of her heel, injecting and thrusting her boot's blade into the metallic cranium, forcing the Cyborg to shut down.)

"Senri: ..HEH!"

(With the tanky AOSE Cyborg then attempting to chase after Tashiro, Tashiro and Mike would have their backs turned to one another, not caring but focused on their fights at hand. With the two rushing in to their fights simultaneously, they'd clash into a test of strength with their Cyborgs as Daxton manages to push one back with the help of Renzo.)

"Renzo: I'll handle this one, Daxton! Go help Mike!"

(With Daxton turning to see both Mike and Tashiro struggling with their Cyborgs, it would put him at a careful choice... Who needs help the most?!)

"Daxton: Oh crap..! I'M COMING!"

(With Daxton rushing to the two, he'd at that point make his decision. With Mike struggling to push the Cyborg back due to the fatigue in his arms settling in, he'd notice Daxton rushing to the two but to his surprise, Daxton punches back the Cyborg Tashiro was fighting...)

"Tashiro: Agh.. Thanks, Daxton."
"Daxton: Don't mention it, we can work together on this one!"
"Mike: ..."

(With that very sentence triggering Mike, it would only piss him off further as his arm strength was suddenly surpassing the Cyborg's strength and angerly ripping off it's arms, leaving it defenseless as Mike's orange-ish aura surrounding his body would return as Mike's strikes of his custom Martial Arts style would penetrate through the thick metal of the tanky Cyborg as each blowing echo would be heard across the battlefield and his final strike, obliterates the Cyborg's upper body, shutting it down instantly as Mike no longer cared about the fun of the fight. He'd then blitz through each remaining Cyborg with the Scroll of Agility, sending them into a cycle as Mike's anger plus his speed was creating a powerful tornado as the group watched him send the remaining Cyborgs into the air. With Mike halting in position the wind would stop and Mike would soar into the air with his fist clenched tightly, punching a hole through all Cyborgs after they were lined up coincidentally in the air, including their batteries as each Cyborg exploded in the air, creating a chain of explosions and thus raining black oil around the campus.)

"Raneri: Whoa..!!"

(With Mike landing on the ground, he'd then acknowledge Raneri running up to him first and praising him for his strength and speed.)

"Raneri: You're so much faster than me, Mike!! When was this ever possible?!"
"Mike: ..."

(Mike would then raise his hand slowly and pats Raneri's head gently, confused but she didn't care.)

"Mike: I'll tell you another time, Raneri. Things are too hectic right now. Is everyone else alright?"
"Zoro: All I needed was one more swing, but I'm fine."
"Senri: I'm okay, Mike.. Thank you."
"Tashiro: Yeah thank you, Mike."
"Renzo: Appreciate your help."

(As Mike then appreciated the gratitude he's received, he hasn't heard anything from Daxton who was currently staring into the sky, thinking about himself as it pissed Mike off once again.)

"Mike: ...Anyway, I'm going to report everything to the Global Government, this is an urgency. I need you guys to stay here and help Miss Qinggang with whatever she needs."
"Renzo: You can count on us Mike."
"Mike: I know I can."

(With Mike then walking off and the group parts ways for now to assist with their other duties, moments past as Mike was far enough from Hanying Academy, calming himself down for a few seconds before attempting to put in a call.)

"Mike: Alright... I don't know what the hell is going on, but these Cyborgs.. This was a planned attack. AOSE Cyborgs aren't suppose to activate off the whim like that, at least... in the terms of common sense... I need to put in a call-"

(With no warning, a powerful explosion rocks the destroyed remains of Beijing, Mike then seen crashing through multiple buildings before landing in an entirely new district within Beijing. With civilians around then horrified to see the state of Mike, unaware of what is going on but they'd see Mike's face now bruised and bloody and his fatigue kicking in once again at the worst possible time.. for a new foe has arrived for the prize: Michael Ackerman's head.)

"???: Stand ready for The Empire, boy."

(As Mike looked at the man towering over him, civilians rushed out of the area in a panic as the man standing over Mike was a scarily muscular elder man, long dark grey beard and sturdy hair.)

"Mike: Nngh... w-what.. the hell..? Who the fuck.. are you?"
"???: You were given chance after chance, you were relieved for your crimes and you were even exonerated from your time with the Army."
"Mike: ..The Army...? ...Tch, so you managed to track me down after so long, huh..? Exile."

"Sterling H. Ackerman (Nickname: Exile | Former U.S Army General | Head Of "The Empire"): The Empire has strongly anticipated your resistance and that is why I have descended from where I sit to warn you one final time, Michael. Join. The Empire. And fulfill your role to be the ruler of this damn world!"
"Mike: ...You can take your offer and shove it up your ass...!"

(With the amount of pain Mike currently feels, he would force himself up on his legs, not afraid to back from another fight.)

"Exile: You're making a grave and foolish mistake to fight me in your state. But you've declined my offer too many times.. So I will not be sparing you any further."
"Mike: (Thinking): Damn it... To think he'd appear of all times.. and my body really can't handle me using the Scroll's ability once again."
"Exile: I've seen everything you've done today, Michael. And you officially have no further chances to surrender. For the sake of The Empire, I will be taking your head as my trophy for our battle today."
"Mike: ..Tch! You're going to have to kill me in order to take my damn head, but I'm afraid you'd be far too slow to catch me, Sterling."
"Exile: ...Would I now?"

(With Mike's eyes widening in shock at the incoming movement that the naked eye could not see, Mike was slapped to his right by Exile, skyrocketed straight into the air as Exile then catches up to Mike after one powerful jump, delivering another destructive fist to the chest, cracking nearly his entire rib cage after the second hit. The pushback of the attack would then be powerful enough to quake the new district, destroying cars, shattering class and the blast would kill innocent civilians within the radius as buildings was then already in ruins because of Exile and Mike would be sore and in severe pain but continues to get back to his feet.)

"Exile: Do you obviously see the difference in our strength Michael? You waste your time worrying about the wrong things in life and you wonder why nobody will ever view you as a human?! You are an Ackerman, cursed to the public eye with unimaginable physical power yet to us, you are a blessing! You continue to play these games and believe anyone would ever truly respect the name, Michael. H. Ackerman. Your death will come from your foolishness and delusion, while I seek the quenchable thirst for conquest.-"
"Mike: -Shut up."
"Exile: ...?"

(Mike would then pick himself back up and with a slight cough and his finger reaching into the back of his teeth, he'd spit out two molars and a medium pint of blood.)

"Mike: You never change. Even when the family exile you, you still talk to damn much. Are you finished being cocky? Or do you wanna suck yourself off more?"

(Exile would then laugh at his snarky remarks as he'd then show a more serious glare on his face.)

"Exile: Seems like you have your sister's mouth. I'll do the honors to rip it off as well and present it to her as a reunion gift."
"Mike: ...Don't. You. DARE. MENTION HER!"

(With Mike using the Scroll of Agility to rocket towards Exile, he'd launch himself at full speeds towards Mike. With the two retracting their fists back, they'd then collide within moments, creating a POWERFUL explosion across the new district, instantaneously incinerating all within a 50 mile radius, turning everything in the surrounding area into nothing but charred asphalt and ruins of a battle. With all of China now on the verge of country-level destruction, an announcement was now blaring to the entire country.)

"P.A System: WARNING! WARNING! THIS IS NOT A DRILL, THE GLOBAL THREAT ASSOCIATION HAS CONFIRMED THE FOLLOWING THREAT LEVEL TO BE: OMEGA! REPEAT! THIS IS NOT A DRILL, PLEASE EVACUATE TO THE NEXT NEAREST COUNTRY!"

(With the Global Government immediately receiving the alert, Allen R. Goodman rushes in a hurry to the emergency control center.)

"Allen: WHAT'S THE EMERGENCY?!"
"Female Analysist #1: We've detected major kinetic energy after a powerful explosion in China's Jianguomen Residental District!"
"Allen: That's Downtown Beijing...!! WHERE IS MICHAEL?!"
"Female Analysist #2: He is currently involved in combat with the humanoid! We can't reach Michael on any intercoms however...!"
"Allen: Get him backup as soon as possible, summon any nearby God of Combat to assist him!"
"Male Analysist #1: But sir, the entire country of China is still handling the AOSE Cyborgs, we're getting calls left and right from multiple Gods and Marines, they can't keep up!"
"Allen: DAMN IT..! Inform the Chinese Government we're sending as much help as we can get, do not let any civilians get caught in the crossfire between Michael and this humanoid! Can we also get a look at him?!"
"Male Analysist #1: Unfortunately no sir, the explosion wiped out all communication devices, it even knocked out half of Beijing's power supply!"
"Allen: GET THE BACKUP GENERATOR ACTIVE NOW!"
"All Analysts: ON IT!"

(With Mike facing his biggest battle yet, Gods and Marines all across China were under siege by the AOSE Cyborgs rampant in other cities across the country, turning the entirety of China into a warzone, endless violence and rampant bloodshed, all caused by the AOSE Cyborgs...)

"Allen (Thinking): Hang in there Mike, I'm gonna get you help! Just hold the line and hold off that bastard...!"
