  Tatyana again goes for another punching combo, but Saul smirks, moving his head to the right, causing Tatyana to miss, and at the precise moment, Saul swings with his left fist, punching Tatyana in the face hard, causing her to fall to the ground.

  “TT!” shouts a shocked Kelsie.

  “C’mon Uncle Saul you didn’t have to go that far!” shouts Shyla.

  “…Do you see what you’ve done…?” says Saul, looking down at Tatyana in silence.

  Tatyana lies flat on the mat, looking up at the lights with a bruise on her right cheek. She suddenly smirks at performs a kip up before spitting blood out of her mouth.

  “…Yeah, I’ve seen the error of my ways. Our training is done here. I’m ready now,” replies Tatyana with a smirk.

  “Huh?” says a confused Kelsie.

  “She can sure take a punch…” says a shocked Tori.

  “Let’s go home, I’m hungry,” says Tatyana, quickly heading for the ring cage exit.

  “…Hmmm…Alrighty then, princess…” replies Saul with a smile on his face.

  Later, as the group is leaving, Saul’s phone suddenly begins to ring. Saul is surprised and grabs his phone out of his pocket, and finds Stacey as the caller I.D. before he quickly answers.

  “Yes, Stacey beautiful, how may I help you?” says Saul with a smile on his face as he opened the door for his nieces to walk out the training arena.

  “Saul, I’ve already called up Victoria and Daichi. I need the both of you to come to our secret location later. We need to speak on something important,” replies Stacey.

  “…Ok,” says Saul, having a serious look on his face.

  [???]

  The 4 end up seated together drinking coffee in what clearly appeared to be a café shop, with almost no one else inside but them.

  “…What’s the deal, Stacey? I’m going to miss a T.V. show!” says Victoria looking at her phone.

  “Listen. In 3-4 months, 1 million soldiers will be going back up towards the surface to witness the aftermath of Atlas,” says Stacey. “This is what has become of Atlas as of this very moment. I’ll show only the location of Atlas City, but this is what most of the land looks like now.”

  Stacey whips out her tablet device and lays it in the middle of the table. In seconds, a hologram LCD screen appears above the tablet, and the Calamita Team are bug-eyed at what they see on the screen.

  “Holy…!” says a shocked Victoria.

  “…How did it turn out this way…?” says a shocked Daichi.

  “…My god…!” says a shocked and jaw-dropped Saul.

  The 3 witness Atlas City turn nothing more than a city of a dark future. It was foggy, with tall black skyscrapers everywhere. Before the Calamita Team could gaze anymore, the LCD screen closes, and they turn their attention back to Stacey, who looks at them with a serious look.

  “Now, Branch needs one person to be the captain of these 1 million soldiers, but I don’t know who can be quite suited for the job,” says Stacey.

  “Saul can do it,” replies Victoria.

  “Hey! I never said I’ll do it! Stop putting words in my mouth!” shouts Saul.

  “Listen. We’ll do it like this. If it’s 1 million, we’ll split the soldiers by 300K plus,” says Daichi.

  “What are you implying, Daichi?” asks Stacey.

  “I believe all 3 of us should be heading up there. Saul will be captain of the fighter soldiers, Victoria of the gunners, and I will be captain of the swordsman and swordswomen,” explains Daichi.

  “Interesting…” says Stacey, nodding.

  “Plus, with our battle armor getting an upgrade, it’d be great to test them out on the battlefield.” Says Daichi.

  “But Branch says one person, not 3!” shouts a saddened Victoria.

  “Oh pipe down Victoria you’re a soldier! Act like it!” shouts Daichi.

  “Yes sir…!” mutters Victoria, lowering her head in sadness.

  “I like this plan, and I’m positive Branch will as well. Is this plan fine for you Saul?” says Stacey.

  “I’m down with it. Get to keep a close eye on TT as well, so whatever,” replies Saul, sitting back with his hands over the back of his head in relaxation.

  The room is silent…as everyone has their eyes locked on Victoria who still looks somber. She eventually raises her head and finds the 3 of them looking at her.

  “…Fine, I’ll go,” says Victoria rolling her eyes.

  “Then it’s settled then. The Calamita Team will be the captain for those soldiers on that day,” says Daichi.

  “Good. I’m glad you all agreed to join in together on this. I must tell you since I’ve been assigned this job, you 3 have been the best I’ve ever witnessed,” replies Stacey with a smile.

  “Yeah, I guess,” says Victoria, shrugging.

  “Well, you all will be captains for those young guys and gals. You 3 will also be their instructor in the 3-month training program before it will be time,” explains Stacey.

  The Calamita Team nodded in unison, with Stacey looking on with a serious look on her face.

  “…The time begins…we have to take our land back…the enemy has now taken over it,” says Stacey.

  [???]

  Elsewhere, in parts unknown, Eric, Michelle, and Drozo, dressed in all black attire: long black sweater, long black pants (minus Michelle wearing short black jeans), and black shoes, were seen atop of one of the many skyscraper buildings. The sky was completely dark, and below the skyscrapers were nothing but fog. It appears they may have returned to the newly transformed Atlas, as the scenery for the area was identical to what the Calamita Team had witnessed before.

  “Ah, look at this place! It is almost now ours for the taking!” shouts Eric with his arms spread out.

  “Don’t be so sure of yourself Eric. When you struck the land down there were no bodies anywhere! They’re somewhere…and I’m sure they’re going to reclaim it soon,” replies Michelle.

  “Indeed. Had they not had mysteriously vanished, they all would be turned into our soldiers,” says Drozo.

  “Oh, I know they’ll return, that’s why I already have something planned for them. Oh yes…it will be a fun thing to witness,” says Eric with an evil smirk on his face.

  As the 3 continued looking on, someone suddenly landed right behind them and stood. This was a man. He had long brown spiky hair with a brown scarf around his neck and red eyes. He wore a long green jacket coat showing off his chiseled body, long baggy brown pants, a brown cowboy hat, and a huge shuriken strapped to his back.

  “You all best stay rested,” says the man, “I’ll be the one taking care of operations here. It appears they are beginning to train soldiers and will be quite a while before they get here.”

  “…As suspected. Fine then Zuronimo, until then, we have to get to work,”replies Eric.

  “Yes…however, King may not take a liking to this news,” says Zuronimo, standing beside Michelle, joining the 3 in watching the dark city.

  “Well, Nevas, it’s best you leave now, don’t you think?” says Zuronimo.

  “…You’re right…we have to attend to other things, unfortunately,” says Eric, looking uninterested.

  Suddenly, the Nevas’s bodies turn misty black, before their bodies fade away, leaving Zuronimo alone.

  “This world is going to truly become a Calamity like none other before. What dark people hide behind the masks…?” says Zuronimo with a smirk on his face…

  Chapter 10

  3 Months

  3 months have passed. In those 3 months, 1 million soldiers of the Atlas Nation were heavily trained under the guidance of the Calamita Team’s Victoria Tavian, Saul Knight, and Daichi Matsumoto.

  It is now the month of June, and 1 million of these soldiers are all boarded up, and ready for the big fight. The fight to reclaim their nation that once was their own.

  All 1 million soldiers are already dressed in battle armor. Their armor was pure black, with a wrist d
evice placed on their right wrist showcasing a silver dragon on it. They all had a black rifle placed on their lower back, and a beam sword handles placed on their upper back. Those amongst those 1 million soldiers were Luke Tavian, Tatyana Knight, and Akira Matsumoto. All 3 of them had the look of sheer focus and were ready to go. Also amongst the 1 million soldiers facing them were the Calamita Team, already in their Calamita Battle armor. The 3 of them looked at the soldiers with a serious look on their faces.

  They all were placed in a large, dark room. There was nothing but the sound of something ‘moving’ them somewhere. It was as if they were in a massive elevator room.

  “I hope you’ve all says your proper goodbyes to your family and friends,” says Daichi.

  “I’m sure we all says our prayers, whether we believe or not,” says Saul.

  “And now, we’re here. 3 months of excruciating training leads to this day, the day we take our nation back,” says Victoria.

  “Know this: This may be the last time you see us, your comrades, and even your family. I pray it won’t turn out that way, and that everyone makes it back safely,” says Daichi.

  “We’ve given outposts around the land to the Gunner, Sword, and Fighter soldiers. As soon as we make it to the surface of Atlas City, you will be transported to those posts, and thus will be beginning the investigation,” explains Saul.

  “Our mission here is to investigate what has happened to this land, and find all the possibilities to return it back to normal,” explains Victoria.

  “Clearly you’ve all seen a glimpse of what’s come to our land. It has transformed completely by what the officials believe to be the enemies doing. With them having to transform a large land such as Atlas in a matter of a few months is amazing, however, we aren’t here for sight-seeing,” explains Saul.

  “After investigating enough, we, the Calamita Team will pull off a new tactic to destroy the land of Atlas whole once again, and return it back to what it once was. To do that, I have a device that will be used to destroy Atlas whole once more. As soon as that device has been activated, Stacey will transport all of us back to the underground before the device sets off. If we can complete this successfully, we all will stay in Atlas Underground for another few months before Atlas can be restored to its original setting. Once back to its original setting, we can finally return to the surface again. To look at that beautiful sun and sky, and the clear night sky and the moon. It’s up to ALL of us to make this happen,” explains Victoria.

  “To put it short; If enemies do show up, in which it’s a pretty good chance of happening, we will take them all out. We’ll place our bomb in a specific spot, and when activated, we will return underground before the device detonates, causing Atlas to be destroyed yet again, but will start its reconstruction process. How the hell that’s possible, I have no time to explain, because…”

  Saul stop’s mid-way, as a loud thud is heard. The Calamita Team smirks at the soldiers, leaving the soldiers to start looking nervous.

  “We’re here...” says Victoria with a smirk.

  “Remove the walls,” orders Daichi.

  In seconds, the 4 steel walls barricading the soldiers fall flat to the ground, and the soldiers are jaw-dropped, including bug-eyed, to witness what was all around them.

  They found themselves around a large empty area, but clearly, they could see it was not the Atlas they once knew. The skies were light pink, and the buildings were nothing more than tall black skyscrapers. Nearly all of them were. Fog flowing off the ground made the experience look even more spooky.

  “Holy shit…!” says a shocked Luke, moving his head left to right.

  Incredible…the enemy has enough power to do this…? thought a surprised Akira.

  “…They’re going to pay for this…!” says an angry Tatyana, clenching her fist.

  “Like the view? Me neither,” says Victoria.

  “Good luck everyone, because it’s going to be one hell of a ride,” says Saul with a smirk.

  “Alright everyone, MOVE OUT!” shouts Daichi.
