"Faisons l'amour avant de nous dire adieu

Avant de nous dire adieu

Faisons l'amour puisque c'est fini nous deux

Puisque c'est fini nous deux

Faisons l'amour comme si c'était la première fois

Encore une fois

Toi et moi

Puisque l'amour s'en va

Faisons l'amour avant de nous dire adieu

Avant de nous dire adieu

Faisons l'amour puisque c'est fini nous deux

Puisque c'est fini nous deux

Faisons l'amour comme si c'était la première fois!"

The angelic singing of Penelope Araignee filled the Castle's halls as she hung upside down from her webbing while cleaning the top of the shelves and upper walls. All eight arms, four on each side, working in unison to clean everything.

She continued working until she finished her work up there and then she lowered herself down and flipped off of it to land on her feet and she resumed cleaning and dusting the shelves while singing.

"Encore une fois

Toi et moi

Puisque l'amour s'en va

Je peux tout te pardonner

Et faire semblant d'oublier

Je veux bien fermer les yeux

Et faire tout ce que tu veux

Je veux bien te partager

Et même te supplier

Mais reste encore

Je me ferai si petite

Que tu ne me verras pas

Et je me ferai si tendre

Que demain tu m'aimeras

Je serai toute d'amour

Et je serai toute à toi

Mais reste encore

Faisons l'amour avant de nous dire adieu

Faisons l'amour, puisque c'est fini nous deux

Faisons l'amour comme si c'était la première fois

Encore une fois

Toi et moi

Puisque l'amour s'en va

Faisons l'amour avant de nous dire adieu

Avant de nous dire adieu

Faisons l'amour, puisque c'est fini nous deux

Puisque c'est fini nous deux

Faisons l'amour comme si c'était la première fois

Encore une fois

Toi et moi

Puisque l'amour s'en va

Puisque l'amour s'en va

Puisque l'amour s'en va

Puisque l'amour s'en va

Adieu! Hahahahahaha!"

Despite her heavenly singing and her amazing work ethic, wiping windows and mirrors, vacuuming carpets and rugs, cleaning the kitchen, taking out the trash and wiping surfaces, tidying up the house, sweeping, cleaning or mopping floors, wiping surfaces including appliances and fixtures and cleaning the baths, toilets, sinks and mirrors, her appearance was anything but Angelic!

She stood tall at 5'11 with a beautiful figure with white hair that covered the right side of her face, she has six pupil-less, monochromatic red eyes, on top of the red eyes she has in the place where a normal human would, and sharp and pointed teeth. Her maid uniform is customized to include sleeves for all eight of her arms and eight gloves, one for each hand, that are designed to be able to cover the claws on her fingers. The outfit itself is quite fancy as well! A white dress with multiple sleeves, a dark blue apron worn on top of it with four buttons up top, a purple tie, dark blue tights and shoes and a maid bonnet in her hair. The apron has a few web designs on it with a noticeable skull design on the back with a red hourglass inside of it.

A warning to any potential predators not to attack her. Look but don't touch.

She continued cleaning the house until a watch on one of her hands began beeping. She tilted her upper right arm and looked at with an upper eye, nodded, and turned it off with a press of a button from another hand. Penelope walked to a supply closet where she placed the cleaning equipment and then she shut the door and leaped to the ceiling and began rapidly crawling along it to cross the castle hallways quickly up into the entrance hallway and up a wall. She crawled up the wall, making sure not to disturb the grand paintings, until she reached the ceiling, crawled along that and then down into another hallway where she dropped down and landed on her feet. She brushed off her dress and apron and walked down the hallways until she arrived at a pair of double doors. Penelope whistled to herself while she opened up a door next to it and retrieved a guitar case, set it down, opened it up, retreived the electric guitar inside and held it in two of her hands while she pushed open the doors, walked inside, pushed open another set of doors and into the grand bedroom of Master Vladmir Graveblade.

The best way to describe this bedroom was sheer opulence! As befitting one from the Graveblade Family the room was extremely fancy. Golden sheets and pillars, fancy paintings, golden marble flooring and patterns, drawn dark blue curtains to keep the sunlgiht out, high class furniture, Vladmir was not shy about flaunting his wealth and enjoying his high class lifestyle. His bed was beyond comfortable. She knew because she'd napped on it in the past. But unfortunately she still had to wake him up.

Therefore she readied her guitar, took a deep breath, blew it out and began shredding on it like a rockstar while singing Rock Is Dead! IN FRENCH!

"Tous de simples singes avec des bébés extraterrestres

De l'amphétamine pour les garçons2

Des crucifix pour les dames

Testé et sans âme

Mondial et pas mal étendu

Tu vends tout le vivant

Contre une mort plus sûre

N'importe quoi pour être à ta place

N'importe quoi pour être à ta place

Le rock est plus mort que mort

Le choc n'est que dans ta tête

Ton sexe et ta came, voilà tout ce qu'on nous sert

Alors va te faire foutre avec tes protestations, mets-les au lit

Dieu est à la télé!"

Vladmir immediately shot up and brushed a strand of his chocolate brown hair out of his eyes, his darkly smouldering eyes never narrowing and taking in her face while he enjoyed her music. His lips parted to reveal his shining gleaming fangs. The blanket dropping a bit to show off his chiseled body.

"Hell of a performance, Penelope, you really should've gone pro."

"Oh I know. But then who would look after you, sir?"

He chuckled. "Got me there. I'm grateful though. Because today's the day. I'm becoming an Agent."

"I'm proud of you, sir, you're putting your extraordinary abilities to a great use for both Monster and Humankind."

"Hey, I have to do something with this immortal life of mine, right?"

"Qute right, sir, I'm glad you're taking this seriously and doing something productive with your immortal lifepsan. Out of curiousity though how long do you plan to work with them?"

"Well....I've spent about one hundred fifty-one years living in luxury, right? So why not spend another hundred working to keep the world safe? After that, who knows?"

"Your goals are inspiring, sir, I hope you can reach them." She blinked with her multiple eyes. "I hope to see you become the great man I always knew you could be."

"Thanks, Penelope, I'll put in 110% as always!"

"I'd expect nothing less from you! Now, I will step out so you may begin your shower and then I'll lay out your clothes and prepare a blood drink in the kitchen for you to start your day off properly."

"You're the best Penelope!"

"I know, dear, I know." She replied proudly and stepped out of the room. "Merci beaucoup."

He hopped out of bed, got changed out and walked into his bathroom, stepped into the shower, got it all set up and turned the nozzle and released a rainstorm of blood drops onto his body.

After cleaning up with a nice relaxing shower, he stepped out and sprayed himself with The Nosferatu Cologne providing him with an earthy, rich, floral, seductive scent. Alluring and dark, it is anchored by patchouli and red roses. The rich aroma of red wine emerges from behind the roses tinged with tobacco and fire. It is a decadent and lush blend that suited him perfectly. He stepped back out to his room and getsured to his clothes to pull them over to him and get dressed.

All dressed up now, he's wearing a simple shirt and buttoned it up fully to support the graceful bow tie he's wearing. On top of the shirt he's wearing a stylish vest with 4 buttons, it has a deep v-line, which causes the vest to remain hidden when the suit's jacket is buttoned up. The jacket is a perfectly tailored fit for him. It has a simple, but elegant blanket plaid pattern, giving the suit a dignified and elegant look. The 6 buttons of his single breasted jacket are all buttoned up with the exception of one, it gives the suit a bit of both worlds, casual and stylish. The jacket is slightly longer at the back, it has no vent, there's a pocket on either side and there's a breast pocket which holds his sunglasses. He's wearing pants which copy the style of the jacket, both in color and pattern and they make an ideal combination with his shoes. He's wearing a chich pair of horsebit loafers. Satisfied with his style of dress he turned around and faced the windows, braced himself and held out his hands and spread them outward to open up the blinds and let sunlight flood into the room!

Vladmir hissed and flinched but the sunlight didn't necessarily hurt him. Sunlight as a weakness to vampires is not actually from folklore, as many types of vampires can survive just fine in the sunlight, and traditional folklore rarely mentions sunlight at all. In fact, the weakness to sunlight is a modern addition to vampire folklore and literature, which only goes back to the German film Nosferatu, making it one of the newer additions to the vampire lore. The traditional vampire, for example, would appear to be a normal person by day, and then turn into a vampire by night, effectively making them immune to sunlight. In Bram Stoker's original Dracula novel, Count Dracula himself was not killed by sunlight, but rather, he is simply less powerful during the day.

So it was for Vladmir. The sunlight didn't hurt him per say but the blinding golden lights shining down on him were unpleasent to him regardless on top of weakening his powers. It was the equivalent of standing in a pitch black room and then someone opens a door up and a blinding light shines in while spotlights flash on overhead.
In short, Vladmir didn't like the sunlight and it made uncomfortable but he could handle it well enough. Vladmir recovered and regained his composure and stared out the windows. "Hey now, Sun, who gave you permission to be that bright?" He joked and turned around and walked out of the room.

The interior design of the castle is dripping in opulence with elements of Victorian Gothic, Germain Renaissance, Rocco, Neorenaissance, Italian Renaissance, Greek Revivval and elements of Baroque styles which came into prominence during the 17th century and suggest the castle may have been updated during that time. There is plenty of overhead lighting along with candelabras throughout the castle for whenever the power goes out or if they're just feeling dark that day, with many windows having been draped in thick curtains, leaving the vast majority of the castle steeped in shadow and secrecy. Its upper echelons are exquisitely decorated, complete with twisting hallways lacquered in ornate golden gildings of vines, expensive furniture, crystal chandeliers, and velvet carpeting lining its checkered marble floors, which extend from its entrance hall, main hall, and the secret hallways to the family crypt. Tall columns and pillars support the high domed ceilings of many chambers and are filled with statues, paintings and crests baring the history of the Noble Graveblade Bloodline; these consist of the dining room, dressing room, library, atelier, attic, armory, wine room, tasting room, opera hall, bedchamber, the Mistress of the castle's private quarters, and the Tower of Rage. Fireplaces located in several of these rooms are prominent centerpieces for warmth during the castle's harsh winter months. A courtyard acts as a pathway to specific regions of the castle, among these the Bathhouses and the Halls Of Jubilance, Punishment, Fear, and Wisdom.

Vladmir descended a staircase and walked through a hallway to a dining room where Penelope was waiting for him. She curtsied with all of her hands lifting up her skirt at once and bowed her head. "Good Morning, sir, I have prepared a Blood Gelatin Cup, A Pumpkin Blood Soup and a Blood Orange Turmeric Tea Latte for your Morning Meal."

"You really are the best, Penelope, the best. This looks delectable. Did you get something for yourself?"

"Of course. I took the liberty of making a Spicy Tortilla Soup spiced with Chicatanas and Escarabajos and a Hibiscus Tea Strawberry Iced Latte with two Pogonomyrmexes."

"Classy and tasty. Enjoy your meal."

"You as well, sir." The took their seats and raised their glasses. "Cheers to today. This is going to be the dawn of a Century Of Justice."

"Cheers, Vladmir, I know you can do it."

"Cheers!" They dranks from their glasses and began enjoying their breakfast together.

NOTICE: For those who are unaware, Pogonomyrmex maricopa, the Maricopa harvester ant, is one of the most common species of harvester ant found in the U.S. state of Arizona, but it is also known from California, Colorado, New Mexico, Nevada, Texas and Utah, and the Mexican states of Baja California, Chihuahua, Sinaloa and Sonora. Its venom is believed to be the most toxic insect venom in the world.

So, obviously, don't try to eat one or put it in your drink.

Penelope is a Spider-Monster and a Fictional Character so obviously she doesn't have to worry about that.

Eat and Drink responsibly.

After they finished their respective morning meals Penelope carried the dishes and silverware out in her many hands and escorted them to the kitchen for cleaning while Vladmir adjusted his suit and then waved his hand over the table cloth and adjusted it. Once that was taken care of he raised his hands up and clapped them. "Alright, come on out Phantasms!"

Spine chillingly creepy unearthly groaning, moaning, laughing, whispering and screaming filled the air as the temperature dropped several degrees. The kind of cold that would frost over mirrors and windows, snuff out flames, freeze water and cause someone's breath to make visible steam. If Vladmir wasn't a Vampire he would surely be freezing right now. But he simply chuckled while a swarm of ghosts passed through the various walls, ceiling, door and floor around him and assembled in front of Vladmir.

Penelope meanwhile simply blew out her steamy breath and turned up the heat of the sink and got back to work.

The Castle Ghosts were a legion of spirits that Vladmir allowed to hang out at the castle rent free in exchange for doubling as an additional security system. That way even if someone could find their way through his technological and additional magical security measures there would still be the specters and their collective poltergeist talents to concern themselves with. Suffice to say the Castle would be kept safe even without him there.

The Ghosts themselves were a group of transparent specters from all walks of life from various eras in time with a wide variety of outfits.

Vladmir cleared his throat and addressed them. "Alright then, ladies, gentlemen, and all you spectacular specters in between! Today's the day! I will officially begin my training to become a Monster Mash Security Agent! Policing and securing the supernatural beings of the world for the safety of ourselves and humanity! Understand that I will not be around as much but you've put up with me for over a century so I'm sure you'll enjoy the break." He smiled and waited for their echoing cacophony of laughter to die back down. "Now then, as usual you're all free to relax, have fun and chill around the castle, but don't forget to take good care of the castle when I'm out, keep it safe and get along with each other. This is your home too after all."

The ghosts wailed out in response!

"Excellent. Alright as you were everyone! Enjoy the rest of your day!"

The Ghosts spread out throughout the room and resumed their relaxation and patrol of the castle as the temperatures in the room returned to normal.

On his way out Vladmir checked in with Penelope. "You going to be alright here?"

"Oui monsieur. Passe une bonne journée!" She replied with a smile. "I know you're going to do a great job."

"Salut, Reine Araignée. I'll make you all proud." He bowed out and walked out of the kitchen.

En Route to leave the Castle he was met by a Mouse Ghost and a Gāt-Phaunos. Sliver Bastion The Mouse and Vincent Van Goat.

"Baaaaa-ah-ah-ah-ah-ahhhh! A-a-are y-y-you....hmmmm....Ma~ma~maaaaa! Are you going to begin your training today, Master Graveblade?" Vincent asked him. He's wearing a plain shirt and buttoned it up fully to support the graceful bow tie he's wearing. On top of the shirt he's wearing a trendy vest with 7 buttons, it has a fairly deep v-line, it's just narrow enough for the top to remain visible, adding another layer to the overal look of the suit. The jacket is a perfectly tailored fit for him. It has an elegant windowpane pattern which radiates confidence. The 3 buttons of his double breasted jacket are all buttoned up with the exception of one, a playful touch to a classy look.

The jacket is longer at the back, it has no vent, there's a pocket on either side and there's a breast pocket which contains a stylish pocket square. He's wearing pants which have a different style than the jacket, but they complement each other perfectly and they make an ideal combination with his shoes. He's wearing a graceful pair of longwing bluchers. This white haired, silver horned, goat headed humanoid is a close friend of Vladmir's who's served the family dutifully for over a century now. His body did get into an accident approximately 100 years ago but the Graveblade Family were able to restore him with a combination of mysticisim and cybernetic surgeries. The servos in his body could be heard whirring as he moved. His cybernetic core pulsing beneath his suit. He has bright red eyes with a pair of fancy looking glasses worn over them.

"Chee-chee-cheese! But of course! The time has finally come for the Young Master to spread his wings and soar to the top of the Agency!" Sliver replied with an excited laugh. The green mousey butler is wearing a simple shirt and buttoned it up fully to support the elegant tie he's wearing. On top of the shirt he's wearing a sleek vest with 7 buttons, it has a fairly deep v-line, which causes the vest to line up perfectly with the jacket's v-line when it's button up. The jacket perfectly wraps around his body. It has a tight herringbone pattern which gives the suit a more formal and elegant look. The 5 buttons of his single breasted jacket are all buttoned up, it's the only right way to wear it. The jacket is the same length all around, it has no vent, there's a pocket on either side and there's a breast pocket which has been left empty. Sliver has no pants on at the moment as his lower half is a ghostly tail. His eyes are pitch black but his facial expressions and actions tell of someone who's eager to please. Sliver was a servant of the Graveblade Family in life and even after it was cut short he returned as a spirit to continue his duties!

"One step at a time, Sliver, but you're right. I'm starting my official training today. I'll be gone for a while but once I return it will be as an official Agent! Upon which time we will throw a castle wide party!"

"Baaaah! That sounds like f-f-fuuuuunnnn! Are you planning to invite the to-o-owwnnn?"

"Sure why not? Anybody who wants to join the festivities upon my return is welcome to join!"

The large town of Graveblade is located in the misty mountains and looks majestic and mystical. It is best-known for the produce it exports and for being the home of a famous painter. Also, rumor has it that the inhabitants may not be entirely human. The town has a enchanting atmosphere. The main attraction is the Graveblade Cathedral, the most Gothic looking Cathedral you can imagine, which was built by the Vampire Family centuries ago. Graveblade has a healthy economy, which is mainly supported by medicine, engineering and herbalism. But their biggest strengths are skilled fighters and mystical knowledge.

The Graveblade Family, having named the town after themselves, have long watched over their homeland as guardians and protectors and the duty now falls to Vladmir who seeks to protect not just his home but also protect other supernatural beings both from themselves and others who would do them harm. To that end he seeks to join The Agency.

"So until I return I want you guys to work with Penelope in keeping the castle clean and tidy and secure and draw up some plans for the bash. I'll review them when I return. All good?"

"YES SIR! GOOD LUCK SIR!"

"Thanks you guys. You're the best." He high-fived both of them and proceed downstairs into the 100 Car Castle Garage and past a variety of vehicles towards his selection: A modified Chevrolet Corvette. Another creature in a suit, this one with a human figure and a head seemingly completely comprised of eyeballs, was waiting for him.
Sclera Panoptes. An Argus creature and his personal driver.

"Hey there Sclera, you ready to drive?"

"Of course sir. I shall thorouglhy enjoy our potentially final time driving together before you take on your new job." He replied politely. HIs voice echoing through Vlad's mind since he didn't have a mouth.

"Thanks. Me too. You've always been an amazing driver and instructor, Sclera." He complimented and got into the back of the car and Sclera closed the door behind him and then got into the driver's seat and the garage door opened up and he drove out of the castle garage up a ramp to the surface and out to the town road.

Vladmir relaxed in the back of the car while waving to the various inhabitants of the town on his way out. The town was even more varied than the castle with a variety of human and supernatural beings living in peace together in the safety of Graveblade. Vladmir continued smiling and waving to everyone on their way out before relaxing. "You see this, Sclera? This is what it's all about. This is why I'm joining the Agency. To protect the happiness of Humans and Supernaturals."

"I can see everything, sir, but I respect your dedication to protecting our kind from danger. If I may ask what is your plan to ensure our protection for protecting us in your abscence?"

"Oh don't worry about that. I've made arrangements already. Lenore will arrive in town soon to watch the Castle and the Town while I'm away. She'll take care of everything so don't worry about it."

"Ah yes, Miss Lenore, she'll certainly be a sight for sore eyes."

"Heh, just to be sure to give her a warm welcome buddy."

"Of course, sir, I'll be glad to."

"Thanks buddy." Vladmir crossed his legs and placed his arms behind his head as they drove through the open gate and down the long road out of the town. Past the beautiful trees and plant life and various birds. Sclera continued driving down the road for several minutes straight before he suddenly turned and went down another road that lead deep into the forest, down a long winding road until they arrived at six giant stone rings that rose out of the ground in a series of archest. A tall man stood in front of the rings dressed in dark boots with grey armor, white pants, a blue sash, orange rope tied around his waist, a black chestpiece of armor with silver armor on top of it, a long sleeved white shirt, dark bracers on his wrists with grey armor, red gloves, a red shawl was wrapped around his head and flapped in the wind and covered his helmet except the eyes section while his white cape blew in the wind. A giant spear and shield were gripped in his hands ready to bring down all those who tried to force their way through the Ancient Acaaphis Rings Of Teleportation.

The Graceful Death, Ghostscar.

Vladmir got out of the car and walked up to Ghostscar and took out his ID while a set of papers appeared in his other hand and he presented them to him. "Vladmir Graveblade and Sclera Panoptes. Requesting passage to Nova Stratos. My business is to join the Monster Mash Agency and Sclera is my driver."

He silently looked over his ID and paperwork before nodding and then walked over to Sclera's window and then looking over his ID, nodding and handed it back. Ghostscar stepped away from the car and raised his spear to the rings. The rings lit up and the stone disguise of the rings disappeared to reveal a brilliant blue alien matrial with symbols of ancient alien origin covering them! The symbols began flying down the rings, into the underground, and up again faster and faster until they were an imperceivable blur! The interiors of the rings light up as well and energy crackled out of the ring to meet in the center in a sphere before it spread back out and filled the centers of the rings until they were all glowing and covered in shimmering blue lights.

"Thanks buddy. Take care."

Ghostscar nodded and stepped back as Vladmir got back in the car, shut the door, returned his ID to his wallet and made the papers vanish. Sclera waited until he was situated and drove into the lights! They drove through the glowing shimmering lights in the middles of the ring until they reached the last ring and finally vanished upon driving through the last light! The car was transported through Time and Space away from their current location, across the country and through another series of rings before they slowed to a stop on a landing zone. Another ninja, dressed like Ghostscar, dropped down briefly before looking them over, nodding and motioning for others to come out and speak with them.

A tall blue feathered bird alien, A Blue Avian, dressed in a nice suit approached the car as Vladmir rolled down the window.

"Mister Graveblade, correct?"

"Hey there, Cyrus, how you been?"

"Just fine, my Vampiric Friend! I assume you're en route to the Agency?"

"That's right."

"It's down Aviation Road! You can't miss it! Best of luck with your training!"

"Thanks. Keep up the good work." He rolled the window back up and they slowly drove out of the parking garage, going through the checkpoints one at a time, until they were finally out of there and they drove up the ramp into the big city!

"You do understand sir that this is the last time I will be driving you, correct? You will have to pull yourself up by your own bootstraps from now on, sir."

"Oh don't get me wrong. I get it. But don't worry too much about it. I've had over a century of combat experience and I've driven myself before, usually on the racetrack, so I can handle it. Thank you Sclera but I can take it from here. For what it's worth though? You were the best drive I could have ever asked for."

"And it has been an honor to drive you, Master Graveblade." Sclera replied honestly.

"Hey but listen if you want to keep driving the cars? Go right ahead. Have your fun. Drive them wherever you want. Just keep the cars, and yourself, safe."

"Thank you very much sir. I'll be certain to take excellent care of everything. But you should be certain to take of yourself as well. This is a dangerous lifestyle you're signing up for after all."

"I knew the risks when I signed up, they made them extremely clear, but don't worry about me. I've trained for this. Besides, I want to help protect everyone and that is why I'm signing up."

"You're a good man, Master Graveblade."

"As are you, Sclera."

He kept driving until they finally arrived at another gate. Sclera rolled the window down and handed the man at the window his papers and ID Cards. He checked them over extensively, scanned the paperwork and scanned the ID Cards and their vehicle, both the inside and the outside. Once everything was set up and they got the Green Light he handed it all back and the gate opened and he drove in further. After they passed through another series of gates they entered a wide open parking lot for a plethora of Agency Vehicles. In a sharp contrast to his own car the Agency's Creature Cruisers looked alive. Because they were. A fusion of machinery and sorcery to create Techno-Organic Vehicles, the Creature Cruisers were in fact actual Creatures designed to work alongside the Agents. They usually looked, and could operate as, actual hyperfast cars but transform themselves into actual monstrous creatures that worked alongside the drivers to protect them and deal with threats while rushing through an area.
Skin upholstery, arteries for fuel lines, rendered artificial bio-organic fat for motor oil, a whole lot went into making them and the rest of the Organic Technology that the Agency utilized.

Most notably in the Agency Headquarters which was outright comprised of bio-mechanical materials like a giant H. R. Giger style Tower. The Material of the building looked almost alive and what they could see inside was walls of stone and metal textured to look like skeletal growths. The lights and cameras outside of the tower were literally grown out of it and Organic Technology abounded with bone, chitin, or steel as the framework structures, with living tissue as the interactive medium. It was enough to completely blow your mind and even Vladmir didn't know everything about it.

Commander Grimm Skull really went all out on this place.

Sclera parked the car long enough for him to get out and then Vladmir walked up to the window and he rolled it down. "Thanks again for everything, Sclera, I'll see you around."

"I see everything, sir, I will be the one who sees you. Now go on and make your family proud. We believe in you."

"Thanks again Sclera. Take care." They shook hands and Vladmir walked away towards the building while Sclera drove away. Upon approaching the massive doublet doors of the building the doors began quivering and bubbling while a slimy squelching sound began resonating from the doors and the front of the doors merged together and stretched out towards him and turned an onyx black in a gooey goopy gummy bubbling substance until it reached him and the front of the substance peeled back to reveal a ghostly white marble-eque mask that resembled the other faces around the building although this one had black dot eyes and a painted on black smile.

"Identification please." She told him in a beautiful sing-song voice. This was Dor Iānua. One of the many security systems in the building. She was, as far as Vladmir understood, either part of or an aspect of the building itself and one of the many faces it chose to present itself with. Either way she was functionally all over the building. You can't approach it without being spotted by her and attempting to force your way in would result in her bringing the outside of the building to life while informing everyone inside and all active officers of what was happening. So it was best to be polite when dealing with her.

Vladmir flashed his ID and winning smile. "Hi there Dor. Rookie Agent Graveblade reporting for duty." She looked him up and down while a pale blue light shined out of her eyes and scanned him up and down along with his ID and then the light died down and her smile spread across the sides of her face. "Welcome Agent Graveblade. Agent Griffin is waiting for you inside to escort you to training." Her face disappeared back into the mass and she retreated back into the doors and they opened themselves up to reveal a faceless statuesque buxom woman in a fine suit waiting for him.

Vlad walked inside and the doors closed behind him. He visibly relaxed now that he was out of the sunlight and stepped forward to meet Agent Kitty Griffin. One of the Inviso-Agents. Supernaturals with the gift of Invisibility. They tended to hang out in a rest state with their bodies invisible and wearing their fine suits. As Trained Shinobi their primary purpose in the Agency was teaching and engaging in Information Gathering and Espionage when necessary.

"Hey there Vlad. I hope Dor didn't give you too much trouble."

"Nah she's just doing her job. So how are you doing today, Kitty?"

"Feeling like a Million Bucks. Yourself?"

"Same."

"Give it time. We'll see how you feel after Boot Camp." She replied sinisterly.

WHILE ALL THIS HAD BEEN TRANSPIRING!

BRIARWOOD!

A tall woman dressed in a white and gold hooded robe walked through Briarwood's Enchanted Forest while greeting the various supernatural fantastical beings she met along the way until she reached a colossal tree that towered high above the rest of the woods with a serpent's head at the base. The eyes of the serpent glowed bright blue and it's gaping maw opened wide to allow her in. The hooded woman walked inside and removed her hood as she walked into the center revealing the beautiful angelic face of the redheaded Oceana Rosenberg who beamed with pride as she looked on at her apprentice the Space Witch Vile-lian Reeva Deamonne meditating in the center of Root Core above the table while everything floated around her in a circle like she had her own gravitational pull. Oceana waited until she finished her meditation session and everything that had been floating in the air moved around her and then spread out around the room and settled down on their proper places gently while Reeva floated away from the table until she was over the floor and then she let her legs down and moved her arms up into the air, placed her hands together and floated down to the floor. She inhaled and then breathed out as she stood up properly and she finally opened up her eyes to behold the icy blue eyes of her Master. Reeva, being a Vile-lian from Manon has pale, grayish skin, mauve hair, and red eyes with white pupils but is otherwise humanoid. You wouldn't even be able to tell she was 302 years old!

"Hello Master." She greeted politely. "Has the day come already?"

"Yes. Your official training at the Agency begins today. I have taught you everything I can but you face a greater Physical Challenge than before that will test your mind, body and spirit to their limits. Are you prepared?"

"Yes Master. I have been preparing for this for years. I am ready for everything they can throw at me. I am not afraid."

"That's my girl. Face your challenges with a smile in your heart, your will iron and your head held high like always and you will conquer them all. First thing's first though." She waved her hand and plates of food appeared on the table. "A hearty breakfast is the best way to begin your day!"

"Alright! Thank you Master!" Reeva waved her hands and pulled over two chairs through the air and set them on the floor and they sat down to eat their breakfast together.

The two sat down to a hearty delicious breakfast of spiced peanut butter and honey pancakes with blackberries, French toast with caramelized pears and ricotta and peanut butter milkshakes. Reeva sipped from her milkshake and sighed with pleasure. As far as she knew or was concerned Peanut Butter Milkshakes were the greatest, tastiest, most delicious drink across the cosmos. They were sweet, smooth, creamy, crunchy and outrageously delicious! Already feeling recharged from her night of meditation she began eating her food as well. "Hey, Master Rosenberg? Do you really think I have what it takes to pass the Physical Exam?"

"You have learned a lot from your training with your parents, your travels and what we have taught you. I have trained and prepared you the best that I can. Once you walk through those doors and begin your official fifteen month training course it will all be up to you. Trust in your abilities and in yourself and be prepared to give it your all to your physical abilities and you will find your way and emerge victorious."

"I understand. I'll give it my all and go above and beyond and emerge victorious as an official Agent. I will make you proud, Master, you and my parents."

Oceana wagged a finger and pointed at her. "Rest assured, Reeva, I am already proud of you. You have come so far in your studies and you have defended Briarwood and The Enchanted Forest alongside the others like a true Champion. Your parents are just as proud of you as I am. Perhaps even more. They know how amazingly talented you are, Reeva, and that you will make a fine Agent and a Defender of the world."

Reeva set down her utensils and bowed her head. Her hat tipping down slightly as she did so. "Thank you Master. Thank you so much. I'll give it my all!"

"That's my girl." They enjoyed their meal some more before she spoke up again. "Out of curiosity though, why did you not choose to join Space Patrol Delta? You're the most familiar with them aren't you?"

Reeva sipped her milkshake and set it down on the coaster. "Mmmmmm. Well, don't get me wrong, I'm grateful for everything they've done for us, but...I just think Monster Mash would work better with my Magic. Besides, after all those long, long years spent checking in with them, I'm sure you remember how long we've been hiding out on Earth, I want to work with someone else for a change. I feel like these guys will give me more room to spread my wings and fly. Finally, after all the time I spent here with the creatures of The Enchanted Forest I want to work with people who want to protect Supernaturals like us. Don't get me wrong, Space Patrol Delta can kick butt and they defend the world and the cosmos just as well as any Ranger Team, but they're too laser focused on Spacians. I know I'm from space too and all that but...I feel more in common with Earth-Born Supernaturals. I want to protect people like them, like us, like you."

Oceana set down her utensils and applauded her speech. "That's it! That's my padawan! That's my student!" She stopped applauding and pointed right at her. "That's exactly the mindset you need to have! Proper conviction! That's gonna take you far! Listen up: "If you feel yourself hitting up against your limit, remember for what cause you clench your fists... remember why you started down this path, and let that memory carry you beyond your limit."

"YES MA'AM!"

They clinked their drinks and enjoyed them again and then they resumed their breakfast together.

After they finished their breakfast they gathered their dishes and cleaned them in a sink and then they teleported them away. Master and Apprentice high-fived each other and Reeva cleaned off anything that fell on her robs and face and they walked to the entrance together. Upon exiting the mouth they were greeted by the sight of the Fantasy Creatures of The Enchanted Forest: Elves, Goblins, Trolls, Fairies, Centaurs, Griffins, Hippogriffs, Harpies and others. She laughed and waved to them. "HIIII EVERYOOOONNNE! How's it going, huh? Thanks for coming to see me off! I promise I'll be an official Agent when I come back! With your support there's no way I can fail!"

Garnet Meadowfalls flew up to her and she let the little fairy land on her hand. "Are you really leaving us, Reeva?"

"Yeah, but it's not for good. I'm going to be away for about fifteen months, sure, but when I return I'll be victorious as an Agent and a keeper of the peace!"

"That's amazing, Reeva! I know you can do it!" Garnet cheered.

Tramruilx of the Goblins jumped up and down and clapped for her. "You heard the faye! You're going to knock it out of the park, girl!"

Hellamna of the Centaurs flexed and raised up on her hind legs while whinnying and then she lowered her legs. "That's our girl! She's going to blow their minds!"

"I'm sorry we won't be able to help out physically but we'll be there with you in spirit!" Jaryaya of the Trolls called out to her.

"REEVA! REEVA! REEVA! REEVA!" The fantasy creatures cheered for her and waved.

Reeva laughed and waved back. "That's right! That's right! I'm going to do it! I've prepared for this for so long with everyone's help and now's the time for the big exam! I'm going to do it though! I'm going to come back as the winner you all know I am!"

"That's the spirit, Reeva!"

"We aren't too late are we?"

The group looked to the left as two new voices called out and a pair of Space Patrol Delta Rangers walked into the clearing. A man and a woman.

The woman was dressed in a primarily Golden SPD Ranger Suit with black sleeves and white gloves and helmet with a black X on her chest. She had a silver belt around her waist with holsters for her blasters. The boy had a primarily Silver SPD Ranger Suit with a black side of his suit and white gloves with a silver belt and holster for his blaster. They both had the SPD Special Forces Omega Morphers on their wrists.

These were The Dynamique Twins. Nova Dynamique and Knight Dynamique.

Members of Space Patrol Delta's Special Forces Vicious Interplanetary Criminal Engagement Division and the two Space Officers who volunteered to watch over Reeva and her family. *

"Nova! Knight!" She laughed and flew over to hug the two SPD Officers. "YOU MADE IT!"

"Wouldn't miss it for the world." Knight told her with a chuckle.

"After all the time we've spent together we just had to come see you off." Nova informed her and the two SPD Rangers hugged her back.

"It's always nice to see Rangers visiting here in peace." Oceania commented.

"Supernatural Beings are outside of our jurisdiction anyway. So long as you aren't breaking the law we have no reason to fight." Knight reminded her. "How are doing today, Miss Rosenberg?"

"Couldn't be better. This is one of the proudest day of my life. My little apprentice is about to leave the nest and fly through the skies and create her own legend!"

"You know it, Master!"

*As for how they were able to watch over and live alongside them for so long considering the aliens extensive lifespan? Professor Cameryn Lynxx's specialized nanomachines! We'll explore this later!

"Rest assured, mother, father, I can do it. I will become an Agent no matter what and after I do? I'll use this to build my experience and connections and eventually I'll return to the M51 Galaxy to help free it!"

"We know you will dear and we're rooting for you. We'll be with you there all the way. In your heart and right behind you."

"We'll support you all the way. I know we won't see you for over a year but that's a blink of an eye to us. We'll always be there with you in your heart. Once you return as the victorious champion we know you are, we'll be here to celebrate with everyone else."

"Thank you. Thank you. I swear I'll make you proud!" Reeva hugged her parents in a mutual embrace for a minute and then she finally stepped back and summoned her broom to her in a flash of light and then she let it go from her hand while reciting a quick spell.

"Galwit Mysto Aerotan!" She called out and the broom turned around on its side and in a flash of light transformed into her Mystic Racer, kind of a mystic force flying jetski-esque jet engine vehicle with a pink color to it! She waved to everyone and the SPD Rangers and her parents stepped back to give her room. "I LOVE YOU ALL! I'LL MAKE YOU PROUD I PROMISE! NOW LETS RIDE!" She spun around in a circle and then she rocketed up into the sky, out of the Enchanted Forest and across the city and into the sky!

"Best of luck my child." Celestina spoke to the sky while the rest of the forest cheered her on.

Reeva laughed as she flew through the sky free as a bird at breakneck speeds! She was a bird! She was an Eagle! She was a Jet Engine! She was a Rocket! She was soaring through the sky and past everyone and everything while navigating expertly! Finally, after all these long, long, years she was living her own life! She was spreading her wings and flying away from Briarwood, from SPD, from her Family, from everything and choosing her own path! "MONSTER MASH HERE I COME!"

She continued flying through the sky and over the cities and the landscapes until she arrived at Nova Stratos and she slowed down and floated down to a designated landing pad for flying visitors to the city. She set down on the landing pad and transformed her Mystic Racer back into a broom for the moment and walked up to the check in station.

Reeva hummed to herself while she waited in line at the station until one-by-one the crowd in front of her parted until she could get up to the front. Reeva reached into her sleeve and pulled out her papers and handed them to the Anthromorphic Wolfman in front of her. A rather handsome gentleman named Lucian Bardou. He's wearing a fancy suit and topped it with a pair of stylish glasses. "Hello there young lady. What might be your business here in the city?"

"My name is Reeva Deamonne, sir, I'm a Vile-lian from the M51 Galaxy and I've been living on Earth for 300 years and I was trained in the Mystical Arts by my parents and Master Oceana Rosenberg and I'm planning to join The Monster Mash Security Agency!" Reeva replied quickly while holding out her papers. "I've got my papers and my I.D. right here!"

Lucian accepted everything and placed them in a scanner to test fur authenticity. "Deamonne, you say? As in Celestina and Wufarhim Deamonne?"

"Oh, you know my parents? Good things I hope?"

"Great things. They have a history of getting into shenanigans but always in the interest of rescuing and protecting people."

"Yeah, that sounds about right."

"I'm surprised they never joined any teams though."

"Mother and Father prefer freelance work." Reeva admitted.

"After the way they saved Harwood County I'd say they're free to operate however they want. If you're even close to that powerful then you're going to be an amazing Ranger."

"Ha-ha! I'll be sure to do my best!"

"Alright then. Everything appears to be in order. Just fill out this paperwork and hand it all back when you're done."

"Thank you sir!" She replied quickly and accepted her stuff back and the new papers. She slipped her papers back into her sleeve and then she sat down on a chair and quickly filled out her paperwork before she popped back up and returned it.

"Alright, alright, everything's in order here!" He printed out a shiny new ID for her. "Welcome to Deliveraunce City!"

"I'm so happy to be here! Thank you sir, thank you!" She happy accepted it and slipped it into her sleeve. "Thank you sir! I'm going now!"

"You're welcome but are you going to fly in on your broom?"

"Nah! I'm going to drive in on a motorcycle!" She called back and stepped out and walked clear of the people and held out her hand with the broom in her hand. "Galwit Mysto Motro!" She called out and in a pink flash of light the broom floated out of her hand and transformed into the Mystic Speeder Motorcycle! She waved goodbye, hopped on board and road off to the base.

"And she will soar higher than us all to become the greatest sorceress among the cosmos." A silky smooth high class voice spoke up behind them.

"Becoming the world's greatest Ranger is just her first step. We're very proud of you for doing this, Reeva, and we know you can pull it off."

The two SPD Rangers turned around to face the new arrivals while Reeva's eyes lit up like Christmas Tree Lights and she teleported past the Rangers in a flash of pink light to embrace her parents Wufarihm and Celestina Deamonne.

"Now, how in the world do you two keep managing to sneak up on us?" Nova asked in a joking fashion while placing a hand on her hip.

"Don't worry about it, Nova, we've been using stealth to survive since before we met SPD." Wufarihm reminded her.

"You have to be to survive on Gamma-Vile." Celestina added.

"We're aware. Freeing the M51 Galaxy has been a longstanding goal of Space Patrol Delta. But...we've made some significant advances recently with the assistance of The Senturion's and Masked Riders! I'm sure The Galactic Patrol will be able to free your galaxy one day and you'll be able to return to a brighter, more hopeful galaxy devoid of tyrants or criminals!" Knight informed them eagerly.

"Thank you. If anybody can do it, we know The Galactic Patrol will be the ones." Celestina responded and bowed her head. Celestina Deamonne is a centuries old space witch from Gamma-Vile with ghostly marble white skin, blazing red eyes with black irises, long flowing snow white hair, dark eyebrows, black lipstick and a long flowing black dress. The dress leaves the top of her shoulders uncovered, but does cover the sides and flows down into a graceful keyhole neckline. It's a snug fit which makes the dress look sleek and elegant. Her arms have been covered to about her elbows. The sleeves start out loose and tighten towards the bottom where they form a perfect match with the color of her skin. The dress' waist is broad, but it's a comfortable fit. A bow has been wrapped around her and rests gentle on her lower back. Below the waist the dress fits snug around her and has a tulip style. The dress reaches to well above her ankles and is the same length all around. She's wearing cone heels, an ideal match for this dress. To top it all off she's wearing a simple, but stylish necklace and large jeweled earrings. Her work with magic and combat over the centuries has caused her to develop dark purple veins that line the bottom halves of her her face, though those are easily covered up if she wishes, and the same veins on her arms, and now has a black diamond-shaped marking in the center of her forehead.

Wufarihm is even stranger looking with dark blue skin and elf like pointed ears and glowing white eyes. He has short dark hair with a series of white horns sticking up out of the sides of his head. Combined with his powerful build he looks almost demonic despite his alien nature. To match his wife's fancy dress he's wearing a standard shirt and buttoned it up fully to support the graceful bow tie he's wearing. On top of the shirt he's wearing a sleek vest with 3 buttons, it has a fairly deep v-line, which causes the vest to line up perfectly with the jacket's v-line when it's button up. The jacket perfectly wraps around his body. It has a wide herringbone pattern which gives the suit a classy and graceful look. The 3 buttons of his double breasted jacket are all buttoned up with the exception of one, a subtle but very effective touch of informality. The jacket is slightly longer at the back, it has a vent at the back, there are two pockets on either side and there's a breast pocket which contains a stylish pocket square. He's wearing pants which copy the style of the jacket, both in color and pattern and they're a perfect match for his shoes. He's wearing a fancy pair of fullstrap loafers and a sleek belt.

"Rest assured, mother, father, I can do it. I will become an Agent no matter what and after I do? I'll use this to build my experience and connections and eventually I'll return to the M51 Galaxy to help free it!"

"We know you will dear and we're rooting for you. We'll be with you there all the way. In your heart and right behind you."

"We'll support you all the way. I know we won't see you for over a year but that's a blink of an eye to us. We'll always be there with you in your heart. Once you return as the victorious champion we know you are, we'll be here to celebrate with everyone else."

She spun around in a circle and then she rocketed up into the sky, out of the Enchanted Forest and across the city and into the sky!

"Best of luck my child." Celestina spoke to the sky while the rest of the forest cheered her on.

Reeva laughed as she flew through the sky free as a bird at breakneck speeds! She was a bird! She was an Eagle! She was a Jet Engine! She was a Rocket! She was soaring through the sky and past everyone and everything while navigating expertly! Finally, after all these long, long, years she was living her own life! She was spreading her wings and flying away from Briarwood, from SPD, from her Family, from everything and choosing her own path! "MONSTER MASH HERE I COME!"

She continued flying through the sky and over the cities and the landscapes until she arrived at Nova Stratos and she slowed down and floated down to a designated landing pad for flying visitors to the city. She set down on the landing pad and transformed her Mystic Racer back into a broom for the moment and walked up to the check in station.

MYSTIC SPEEDER!

______________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Reeva rode down the street on her Magical Motorcycle while taking in the sights of the city around her. It was so beautiful and advanced like she just flew into the future! The whole city was futuristic in design! It was like the complete opposite of the more down to Earth Briarwood. There were holograms on billboards and the side of buildings, the architecture was right out of Sci-Fi Movies, and there was cutting edge technology everywhere! Monorails, beautiful lights everywhere, she even saw civilians of many different species and races walking around with random tech and humanoid robots accompanying them, either just for company or carrying their products and belongings to assist them, and even the vehicles used in this city were fancy with cutting edge technology everywhere! Reeva could only guess at how beautiful the city must look at night! She was eagerly looking forward to exploring the city once she became an Agent. As beautiful as it was in the daylight it must be absolutely gorgeous like a sparkling shining diamond at night.

One thing that stood out to her however was how technologically advanced the city was. It was certainly a marvel but it clashed considerably with The Agency building's more BioPunk Architecture and technology. Maybe Skull just wanted to really stand out or he thought that BioTech was the way to go for them? She would have to ask him at some point. For now she focused on her drive through the city until she arrived at headquarters. She stopped, showed her ID, drove through the gate, and drove around the parking lot until she found a place to park the Mystic Racer. She hopped off of it and turned it back into a broom and then held the broom up between her hands and channeled magical energy through it while slowly pushing her hands together. The wand slowly vanishing into sparkles of pink light until she brought her hands together and parted them. The broom had now been stored in another dimension along with her paperwork and materials to be re-summoned as she needed them or left in storage.
Next she waved her hands over her clothes and then held up her left hand and snapped her fingers twice.

"Morthay Ffansïo." She said and a sparkling shining light swirled around Reeva and changed her outfit into a fancy suit! She's now wearing a clean shirt and buttoned it up fully to support the graceful tie she's wearing. On top of the shirt she's wearing a stylish vest with 7 buttons, it has a very narrow v-line, which allows for a large portion of the top to remain visible, even if the suit's jacket is buttoned up. The jacket is a perfectly tailored fit for her. It has a tight herringbone pattern which gives the suit a more formal and elegant look. The 5 buttons of his single breasted jacket are all buttoned up with the exception of one, it gives the suit a bit of both worlds, casual and stylish. The jacket is the same length all around, it has vents at either side, there are two pockets on one side and one pocket on the other and there's a breast pocket which has been left empty. She's also now wearing pants which copy the style of the jacket, both in color and pattern and they perfectly complement his shoes. She's wearing a graceful pair of fullstrap loafers. To top it all off she's now wearing a fancy belt which completes the outfit. Her hair became shorter and her hat vanished as well. Now feeling fully prepared to begin her training she confidently walked up to the front door.

She walked up to the double doors and stood at attention. "Hi Dor! I'm Back!" She greeted Dor Iānua. The doors quivered and bubbled while the onyx black gooey substance covered them again and stretched out to greet her and the face was revealed.

"Hello dear." She greeted Reeva. "Please provide identification."

Reeva happily held up her ID. "Rookie Agent Reeva Dahafskikva Henazgdruidxa Hualhua-il Stseshkinbeorak Desmonde reporting for duty to begin training!"

She looked her up and down while a pale blue light shined out of her eyes and scanned Reeva along with her ID and then the light died down and her smile spread across the sides of her face. "Welcome Agent Desmonde. Agent Arnenoristh is waiting for you inside to escort you to training." Her face disappeared back into the mass and she retreated back into the doors and they opened themselves up to reveal a tall statuesque Gorgon wearing a fancy suit and stylish shades on her face waiting for her.

Sthumbrura Arnenoristh looked down on her as her snakes writhed and hissed while looking around in every direction.

"Ah, sssssoooo you musssst be the new girl, right? The prodigy witch from Briarwood. You trained under Rosenberg, correct?"

"That's right! My name is Reeva! I'm honored to be here, ma'am, and I swear I'll do my best!"

"If Oceania gave you a personal recommendation then you musssst be talented. But there are no free ridessss here. You're going to have to earn your way in through training jusssst like everyone elssssse. Understood?"

"Yes ma'am!"

"Good. Then follow me inside and I'll show you to the training center. Oh and feel free to call me Sthumbrura."

"Understood ma'am, I'll do my best Sthumbrura." Reeva promised as the door closed behind her and they began walking. "So you're a Gorgon? That's cool."

"You betcha! Born and raissssed! A genuine Gorgon with a stone gaze and everything! If you can pass through training then I'll tell you all about it."

"Cool! Alright! I'll be sure to reach the top!"

"Love the attitude. You'll do well here."

NIGHTMARES OF THE PAST
THE GALACTIC WAR

Hellfire rained down upon the planet's surface causing strings of explosions to rent the air as if they were intent on shattering the universe by ripping apart every atom around them. Searing the Earth and air with towering eruptions of flames. If it wasn't bombs going off then it was the ships fighting overhead being shot down and falling down upon the battlefield and exploding into flames on impact. The ships continued to fight through space and sky at breakneck speeds firing storms of beams and missiles and weapons of all kinds at each other in the aerial ballet of death and destruction. Down on the surface of Gnexonope the battle wasn't any prettier either. Drones flitted about firing missiles from a far distance into the battlefield. Military Vehicles roared forward firing upon the enemy with their deadly arsenal in flashes of light and fire while the giant machines linked up and combined together into towering giants unleashing hellstorms of missiles and energy weapons at the enemies giants and monstrosities. Aircrafts launched swarms of fighters and artillery from sea straight to the battlefield only for their own fighters to shoot them down and engaged the enemy. Bombs and artillery and explosions and the roar of hellfire echoed around the surface in a chaotic cacophony of destruction!

All of this was necessary however for the Intergalactic Armed Forces, Space Patrol Delta and Seraphim Knights to make it to Pandemonium Tower. The towering ancient structure was a key stronghold of The Empire and taking it out would be vital to winning the war. Amidst all of this chaos unfolding around them they charged forward towards the tower while the Imperial Forces fought back with everything they had. The SPD Rangers leaped forward, charged up their fists and drove them into the ground, resulting in the surface splitting open into a giant fiery chasm from the combination of unleashed Hyper Muscle Modes and Hyper Fire Modes impacts. The enemy soldiers screamed as they fell into the flaming depths as the Soldiers and Knights picked off the rest of them. SPD Specialists unleashed were downright terrifying.

With the way cleared, Kurata took her position and began charging up The Enhanced Cataclysm Flux Cannon she'd brought with her for the sole purpose of obliterating the tower's shields. The energy pack on her back and the heavy armor she wore on top of her Power Suit was all necessary to make this work. They had one shot with this and she needed the pressure kept off of her to make it work. The cannon hummed to life and energy began to gather around her and her suit as the generator took in all of the excess energy in the area and used it to power up the cannon even more. They others kept fighting as the cannon glowed with power. The energy crackled around her. The barrel of the cannon shined. 100% Power.

"FIRE IN THE HOLE!" Kurata shouted at the others through their comm systems. They immediately got out of the way. Fighters continued to pour of the tower passing through the shields. They wouldn't do so for long. Kura braced herself and fired the cannon. A blinding flash of light illuminated the area. A massive beam of energy erupted out of the barrel. The cataclysmically powerful shining shimmering laser beam that fired from the cannon crashed into the tower's shields and punched right through them to collide with the tower itself. Any enemy fighters caught in the blast were vaporized. The massive doors were blasted wide open and obliterated on impact. The blast continued further inside vaporizing the fighters and their equipment inside as it continued forward, punching through several rooms until it stopped at a wall and melted it down to smoldering glowing slag. The cannon finally powered down and Kurata fell to one knee and discarded it and the Cataclysm Armor so she could move easier. She pressed a button on her wrist and pointed it at the cannon. A light shined out of her wrist and the cannon was teleported away. She sighed and stood back up and readied her primary weapon and hopped up onto the high ground and resumed running towards the tower with the others.

She found Queen Andromeda surveying the devastating damage that Kurata's weapon just unleashed upon the tower. The floor and walls had been melted into glowing red hot slag and while several of the enemy forces had evaded the attack anything caught in the blast was just flat out GONE with no traces of them left behind.

"Ovistshing..." She spoke in quiet awe. "I feel like you undersold it's power."

"I told you: It's just something you have to see for yourself."

"True but that was extraordinarily excessive." Queen Andromeda surveyed the devastation left over from the blast, regret from the sudden but necessary loss of life resulting from their mission clear on her face, but she steeled herself for the mission ahead, calmed down, focused her iron will outwards and utilized The Quintessence to release an omni-directional wave of her iron maiden willpower in a dome that washed over the remaining soldiers who were still recovering from the sudden blast, slammed them down to the floor, created cracks in the walls, floors and ceiling and smashed the down the molten slag. Since the soldiers were still in shock from the blast and were still recovering from it and Andromeda had such exemplary willpower she was able bring down the soldiers around the lobby, ahead of them and on the floor above them. The soldiers were left laying on the floor unconscious and drooling on themselves. "But it doesn't matter now. We'll discuss it after the battle is over."

"Yes your highness." Kurata agreed. Technically speaking the Intergalactic Armed Forces weren't directly under her command but Kurata and her platoon had served with Her Royal Highness and her crew on multiple planetary battlefields and Andromeda had more than earned the I.G.A.Fs. respect. So if she wanted to discuss the morality of the usage of The Cataclysm later then Kurata would be happy to do so. But right now they had a battle to win.

SPD Rangers used Cold Blasts to chill the trail of slag so they could move forward. "Alright your highness. Where do we go from here?" The Quasar Ranger asked her.

"They're still off guard right now but it won't last long. We'll capitalize on this while we can. Zeysin Uzonalgzoik is in charge of the operation here and he's up at the top but there's more to this place than him. Their Roboticisation experiments are being conducted underground. So we'll split into two groups. Team Omnantespe will consist of my crew, Rangers Quasar, Omega, Episilon, Alpha and Quelen, Sparol, Eassan, Bishop, Jetz, Vero, Trevino, Kameron, Badr, Grahame, and Leena from the Armed Forces. Everyone else? You're in Team Tecuraverm. Take the lower levels of the base and the soldiers there. Capture the scientists and save any and all prisoners you can. Inform us when you've saved them and then call in transports to get them out of here. Once they've been safely evacuated rejoin us up on top. Once we take down Zeysin we'll be able to bring down the rest of his army. We have many battles still ahead of us but with the information we can take from him today we'll be able to hit them harder than ever. This is going to be the turning point of the war so lets do this right and bring these Aerinz down! FOR THE UNIVERSE!"

"FOR THE UNIVERSE!" The rest of them echoed her words and split into their two groups and proceeded to fight their way through the base. Through an entire army of soldiers of all sorts of creatures and machines and monsters. Not to mention all of the traps and weapons they had hidden inside of the base. Zeysin was throwing everything and anything at them. This was not an easy battle. The battle inside was every bit as intense as the war raging outside. But it was what was waiting for Kurata's Team downstairs in the sub-basement that shocked them. Zeysin's scientists had indeed been conducting Roboticisation Experiments but what their intel failed to mention was the genertic experiments that had drastically altered the victims into towering cybernetically augmented monstrosities with large, muscular builds and comparatively long necks, which had several large vertebraes jutting out of them. Their skin was covered by exposed, wriggling and pulsating muscle fibers that was broken up by cybernetics. The insides of the monsters visibly glowing. Due to their own extensive enhancements it was like looking into twisted corrupt mirrors from their nightmares. This was far beyond their own ehnacements and upgrades, it was twisted, monstrous, corrupted, versions of themselves. The battle against the horde of monstrosities was every bit as hellish as their appearance, a real dig in your heels battle where the team had to fight for every bit of ground they took. The horde appeared to be almost neverending but they never gave up. No matter how hard they got hit, no matter how powerful the monsters, they gave it everything they had and slowly but surely they managed to force the monsters back and take them out until they could make into the primary labs.

The horrors they encountered inside would stay with them for the rest of their lives.

MODERN DAY

TRAINING DAY

Kurata Ran sat up in her bed short rapid breaths mixed with gasping escaping her mouth. She pulled up her knees and placed her hands together as she rested her elbows on her knees and bowed her head into her clasped hands. "Huhhhh....hhuuuuuhhhh....huhhhh....huhhhhh...." She turned around slid her legs off of the bed and lowered her feet to the hotel floor where she began making fists with her toes while she calmed herself down. Kurata regained control of herself and her breathing and performed her Total Concentration Breathing Technique to calm down. She soon managed to relax, suck in a large amount of air and then she slowly blew it out and then she stood up and began performing her morning stretches. Her muscular, toned, Amazonian, Powerhouse, Super Soldier Physique already calmed and relaxed and awaiting her morning training. Kurata was clad in a black sports bra and shorts for relaxation and her Dog Tags were resting next to the alarm. She'd checked herself into the hotel because of its proximity to the base so she could get there nice and early but it might take her a bit more time to prepare herself properly for the day ahead first.

As she exercised to prepare for the day Kurata continued reflecting on her past. She'd fought alongside and against the supernatural and extraterrestrial warriors from around the universe during the war. She fought across the stars with them and watched so many soldiers and creatures perish over the course of the war. She took so many lives while others perished around alongside her. Now she was prepared to leave the killing behind and work alongside an enforcement agency that would focus on protecting and arresting them for the safety of themselves and others. As much as Kurata respected Space Patrol she wanted to keep her feet down on the Earth for a while longer yet, and Monster Mash's suits and methods appealed to her, so they were her choice. She knew The Space Patrol Delta Earth Branch would naturally be focused on protecting the Earth and space around it, with only special circumstances sending them further out to space, but she knew that Monster Mash, whichever team she ended up on, would need the human element to further bridge the gap between The Supernaturals and the average person.

Okay, so, the 6'5 Amazon might not be entirely human anymore, a result of the InterGalactic Armed Forces' Augmentative Surgeries, but she was still human as a baseline and she had plenty of experience interacting with Humans, Aliens and Supernaturals and various other creatures, plus she was on good terms with Her Royal Highness Of The Galaxy Queen Andromeda, so she knew she could work as a mediator between her still to be announced squad and the various other beings they'd encounter moving forward and give the organization valuable connections moving forward.

Kurata finished her lengthy Kata Repetitions and she brought her hands back together and bowed. Exhaling she turned and got undressed to go take a shower.

After Kurata finished showering and cleaned off she returned to her room and got changed into her proper clothes for the day.

Right when Kurata had finished getting dressed in a nice suit she heard a call coming in from her Communication Cube. "Pick it up! I'm here!" The small portal cube device projected a hologram into the air that expanded into a large holo-screen with her entire team standing at attention and smiling at her!

"Guys!" Kurata declared happily and then she quickly stood at attention. They were all here!

Al Donte Nielsen, Benny Everett Prince, Burt Dorsey, Earnest Jame Lewis, Gino Owens, Alana Valerie Mcknight, Cora Rocha, Dora Margret Adams, Felecia Meredith Wynn, Irma Amelia Lambert, Isabella Lilian Sheppard, Marci Yolanda Swanson, Melba Elinor Wood, Myrtle Obrien, Sadie Williamson, Arden Logan, Danilo Callahan, Edmund Ernesto Barber, Elijah Hardin, Frances Lyons, Frank Teodoro Heath, Kendall Bryan Cohen, Lesley Hayden, Lorenzo Atkinson, Miles Adams, Rocky Les Estrada, Roscoe Daniels, Vincent Phelps, Weston Brendan Levine, Willis Rollins Brewer Michaela Ross, Desmarais Michael Douglas, Feltz Michael Robert, Gipson Brandon Kyle, Cano Hector David, Ronne Froman, Valerie K. Huegel, Carol I. Turner, Elizabeth A. Hight, Cerras, Ettid, Rovoid, Scruuleok, Xix, Theetull, Crur'ix, Giks, Erzi, Guv'a, Scakvik, Scork, Glalamiloturo, Betugorchaban, Balari, Hath, Tulammaengoru, Tunglau and Vaul!

An entire team of Augmented Super Soldiers, both human and otherwise, trained to the peak of their physical abilities and then enhanced even further via Genetic, Chemical, Surgical and Technological Upgrades. They'd fought together across planetary and celestial battlefields, through space stations, and through space in their fighters! They were trained in and had fought through every form of combat and warfare while hellfire rained down upon them. But through it all they stood together and survived every single time. Emerging from each and every battlefield even stronger than before every time.

An aspect of their modifications was what the Techies called Evolution. This was explained as stemming from their nano-machine and genetic modifications providing an upgraded form of Muscle Growth. You work out, you damage your muscles and the body repairs itself and becomes stronger. The process itself is a cellular process where your muscle fibers fuses together. When they fuse they form myofibrils or muscle protein that increase thickness and overall growth. The Evolution Upgrade is a kind of accelerated version of this process since the normal process only occurs when your resting m, not while your working out. Through experiencing intense combat situations, which they did on the regular, The Augments' bodies would modify them as necessary with the nano-machines ensuring that the process was stabilized to work with their implants.

"Hey everyone." Kurata greeted them again calmer and more professionally this time. "How's it going? What's up? Do you need me back?"

"No we just wanted to see you off before you disappear into your training." Cerras informed her. "The Warmaster's Iron Maiden is becoming a Supernatural Cop. Will wonders never cease?"

"Yeeeaaah...I guess I was a little ruthless back in the day, huh?" Kurata asked. "I guess it's better than The Devil Of Muveitune."

"For what it's worth? We always thought it was a term of endearment." Vincent commented. "Badass, girl."

"Thanks Vincent. But I'm using Monster Mash as a fresh start. I don't intend to kill again unless it becomes necessary."

"Hey we get it, Ran, we understand. We just want to give you our full support." Edmund informed her. "Fate laid this path out for you and you chose to walk it. We won't be there physically during your training but we'll be there in spirit. Then when it's all over we'll try to come visit and we can celebrate together. Just like the old days."

"I'd like that guys. I'd love it. I'll hold you to that! So don't get killed until then, you got it? I want to see you lunatics again in 15 Months!"

"Fifteen Months. We'll see you then, Agent Kurata Ran! So make you pass with flying colors!" Vaul commanded.

"Not gonna be a problem for me. You guys just stay alive and keep her Royal Highness out of trouble." Kurata joked.

"We'll do our best." Carol replied. "See you then, Ran."

"I'll be there Carol."

"KICK SOME ASS, IRON MAIDEN! WARDOGS!"

"WARDOGS!" She replied with a grin and saluted.

They collectively cheered her on and saluted before signing off. "I love you guys. You might be a bunch of lunatics but you're MY lunatics! Have fun and kick some ass up there. I'll see you again after I ace my training. That's a promise." She packed up her belongings and walked downstairs to sign out of the hotel.

Exiting to the parking lot she walked to her car, put her suitcase in the trunk, shut it and then she got into the driving seat and drove to the HQ.

As she drove to Monster Mash Headquarters, Kurata's mind drifted back to The War and her titles. Iron Maiden. The Devil Of Muveitune. Space's Goddess Of Death. She had a few titles attributed to her but those were the ones that stuck with her the most. Kurata knew that she could be ruthless during The Intergalactic War, even by the standards of War, a true Ice Maiden with an Iron Will, hence The Iron Maiden, but what Kurata could not be one hundred percent certain about was how much of it was her and how much of it was |D|243(09|\\|ōs(3|23. The Praecognōscere System installed into The Suits that the soldiers could activate to give them an edge in combat. The System instantly scans an enemy and gathers a full read out of every weapon, strength, and weak points on top of constantly taking in data and then using that data to create plans, possible outcomes, and all probabilities. In short it predicts possible futures shares them with the user and tries to get the user to do the action with the highest chance of victory. It's able to absorb, compile, and assess insane amounts of data and then output all the possible outcomes nearly instantly, thus, with the neural link between the suit and the user, they were effectively granted precognitive abilities, increased spacial awareness and an increased reaction time. The flaw however was that the system was not exactly moral. It 'guided' the user down the route most likely to achieve victory, sure, but in the most complete and absolute method possible, which is the total annihilation of all potential threats which could potentially include unnecessary deaths and destruction that the user wouldn't want. Thus, even using it resulted in a battle of wills between The User and The System to keep it 'on track' towards the goals and tasks that The User needed to have done. Therefore, they only used it when they really had to. The real terror came when they combined usage of The System with their Battlizer Armaments, the special armored enhancements they could activate to further empower their suits, they would become One Man Armies! Practically Weapons Of Mass Destruction in their own right!

As the old song went.

I'm A Walking Nightmare, An Arsenal Of Doom

I Kill Conversation As I Walk Into The Room

I'm A Three Line Whip, I'm The Sort Of Thing They Ban

I'm A Walking Disaster, I'm A Demolition Man.

Kurata used to think that she was one of the Elites who'd managed to tame The System but there were times when she reflected back on the battles on the planets Radeika, Kizu and Muveitune that she wasn't so sure. Whenever she thought back to those battles she saw herself tearing through the enemy forces with nightmarish efficiency. Unstoppable unparalleled power with lightning speed and ice cold ruthlessness and efficiency. An ideal soldier to have in a War, sure, but there was still the question of how much of it was Praecognōscere, how much of it was HER, and how much of it was her working in synchronization with The Suit's Systems. As The War dragged on Kurata was well aware that those lines were starting to blur. She couldn't tell who was guiding her own actions in battle anymore. That was why she left. She fought until the battle was won and The Emperor's forces were dealt with in the aftermath and then she made the decision, her own conscious decision, to retire and return to Earth.

Kurata remembered having a long talk with Andromeda about it and thankfully The New Queen was understanding and sympathetic. Gave her someone she could confide in about her troubles. Andromeda might've been a 4-Star Badass on the battlefield and when planning their strategies but she was also one of the most, ironically, Human people that Kurata knew and after their talk and some self-reflection, Kurata came to the decision to retire for the time being and return to Earth.

Because, to put it bluntly, The Pre-Cog System was scaring her. Fortunately, she had the feeling that walking away from it to walk the Earth for as long as she did had done the job of clearing up the cobwebs in her brain and she could think clearly now. Her thoughts were her own. Her will was her own. Her mind were her own. Her decisions were her own. Kurata Ran was in charge of her own life and destiny once more.

That was what lead her to The Agency. The Supernatural Creature And Human Protection Security Agency, also nicknamed Monster Mash for the plethora of Supernaturals they had working in The Agency, was the refreshing change she needed. An Agency dedicated to capturing, securing and locking threats away for protection of themselves and others, were just what she needed after all of the devastation of The War. Plus, she'd get to stay back on Earth which would be refreshing after her adventures in space. This was for the best. This was what she needed.

This was right. Kurata believed that in her heart. Blowing out a long breath of relief, Kurata drove into the parking lot, parked her car and got out with her belongings. Locking her car she turned around to face the day with a smile and then walked up to the front doors.

Just like with the others Kurata was greeted by Dor manifesting out of the doors and stretching out to greet her. "Hello Ran! So nice to see you again dear. But I will need to see some identification regardless. You know how protocol works."

"Of course." She presented her papers and Dor scanned and analyzed them. She smiled as she accepted the identification.

"Welcome Agent Kurata. I look forward to observing the training of a war veteran like yourself."

"Thank you. I'll be sure to put on a show." Kurata Ran replied while rubbing the side of Dor's face. She felt just as metallically goopy as she looked. The Bio-Metal felt like a breathing living veiny alien metal covered in a slick alien ooze that was viscous like tar, but could solidify and seemed like a metallic rubber.

"Oh I can't wait." She laughed darkly and Kurata put her hand down as Dor receded into the doors and they opened up. She was greeted by a tall statuesque Amazonian Shark Woman. She was as tall as Kurata but not quite as buff. She had blue scales in place of skin with her body looking similar to a shark. She had two curved blades in the shape of shark fins on her elbows, her long pointed spikey ears twitched excitedly, her long blue hair was worn in the shape of a shark's tail, her mouth was full of sharp teeth and her blue eyes shined with light. Beneath the fine suit she had a few shark tattoos and others she got from Aquitar.

This was Torrential Esposito. A Veteran Agent and thus Kurata's Superior Officer.

"Hello Newbie. Ready to get your ass kicked in Boot Camp?" Torrential Esposito asked her while giving her a wide toothy grin.

"Been there, done that, in space. Bring it on, Torrential." Kurata replied with a smirk.

"Oh man they're going to love you, Iron Maiden! Sha-sha-sha!" She laughed.

"Cool. So what should I do with my car now?"

"We'll take care of that. Keys!" Kurata tossed them to her, Torrential caught them and then she tossed them to a passing Agent who walked outside to the car. "You'll be utilizing Monster Cars while working with us so your more standard normal car will be kept in storage until further notice. Just in case something happens when we can't use any of our style of vehicles."

"Dang that's a good idea. Alright then. Shall we proceed?"

"Sure. I can't wait to see you in action in the training zone. Sha-sha-sha!"

"Heh. It seems my reputation precedes me."

"Like you wouldn't believe."

Kurata began walking with her while analyzing the interior of the base and Torrential and getting a full analytical readout of everything she scanned.

The whole living fortress aesthetic of the base wasn't entirely knew to her, she'd seen similar locations in the form of temples on Dagobah, Brugkozzen and C’eaux but those were all part of ancient alien civilizations so seeing the materials here on Earth was certainly odd. She watched as the energy and fluids ran through the breathing metal. Pretty much everything around her, the skeletal, insectroid-esque alien interior of the base, was resonating with a heartbeat and breath. While Kurata hadn't seen everything about how the base operated, she'd seen enough from the temples to get a good enough guess about how it all worked: Huge, heart-like creatures pumping out nutritious fluids to a network of self-repairing, living conduits as their equivalent of a power grid, reaching every single one of their huge, exoskeletal dwellings; "powering" bioluminescent lights, flickering cephalopod skin televisions, medicinal sea-squirts and countless other devices bred from their living technology. Neuron cultures wired into machines. The temple on Dagobah was comprised of e semi-permeable materials and laced with a network of delicate circulation passages mixed with a living bacterial colony but this placed looked considerably more advanced and durable on top of incorporating mechanical technology into the design. She even detected the prescence of Morph X in the fluids of the building! Morph X being the physical liquid-form of the Morphin Grid, the multiversal interdimensional bio-electrical energy field generally utilized by The Power Rangers Teams but different species tapped into it in different ways, the Masked Riders for example tapped into what they called The Henshin Matrix which was apparently similar but different. What impressed her the most was how they were able to incorporate the Morph X fluids into the building and so seamlessly with everything else inside of it.

It was incredible really.

As for Torrential, she was similar to some of the Aquatic Spacians that Kurata had met but she didn't match any of their genetics. Not Aquitian, Temerkloren, Zeyzon or any of those, but Atlantean, a race of hyper advanced Fish People who'd evolved from the original Atlanteans after they had a falling out with the Gods. Torrential for her part was known as a Sharkfin Atlantean which made her one of the naturally stronger fighters of their people on top of her years of training in both Surface and Atlantean forms of Martial Arts which she combined into her Flowing Water Shark Boxing Fighting Style, a hybrid martial arts style that made her an extremely dangerous and powerful fighter on land and air and virtually unstoppable in the water! Kurata couldn't lie she was very curious to learn what she could about Torrential's Shark Boxing and see how it faired against her Space-Kempo Style. Space-Kempo being the martial art utilized by the space forces and was a MMA Form as well, incorporating elements of combat from Earth, including the Ninja Academies and Pai Zhuq and several other exotic and martial arts styles, on top of extraterrestrial combat styles and military training, ensured that, regardless of who the soldiers ran up against, they would have a counter to their fighting methods and natural abilities. She would find out when they finally got the chance to spar together in the Combat Center.

"Hey, Torrential? You've been all over the Earth, on land and in water, but have you ever traveled to other planets?"

"Shhhhaaaaaa....regrettably, no. All of my adventures, and I've had plenty of them, have been on Earth. While Atlanteans can utilize magic to create spatial dimensions, which means Atlantis is drastically larger than a mere city or Kingdom while remaining hidden in a pocket dimension away from the rest of the Earth, I have yet to travel to other planets. I've always wanted to swim on Aquitar though. I've heard it has the most beautiful Oceans in the Cosmos. With Oceans so lovely they shine and sparkle with life from Space and teeming with so much life and lush seabeds you can't see anywhere else in the universe."

"I've been on Aquitar actually. It's the most beautiful Ocean Planet I've seen. While I can breath underwater, thanks to my augmentations, I'm not an Aquatic Lifeform, so I imagine you'd love it even more than we did. If we ever get some time off I'll try and arrange a trip there for you."

"Ahhhhh! I can only imagine what it would feel like to swim through cosmic Oceans with extraterrestrial lifeforms and the fish of other worlds! I'll certainly have to keep my schedule open! You know, for whenever we get that time off. Assuming you get through training of course."

"Oh I'm not too worried about that. I'm looking forward to it in fact." Kurata replied with a smile.

"That attitutde of yours is going to take you far in this business, kid. Sha-sha-sha. By the way, what were you guys doing on Aquitar back then anyway?"

"Oh that? It was a training assignment to get used to fighting on Aquatic Planets while training with The Aquitians. Plus we got to blast away some invaders together. So that was fun."

"Sailfin!" She exclaimed. "You've been all over the cosmos then? Why would you come back to Earth?"

"Like you said, I've been fighting all over the cosmos. I've been living in space for decades. Usually sleeping in spaceships or staying in bunkers. Augments like me can go a long time without sleep but we will eventually need it. We never settled down for one place for too long during the war though. If we weren't fighting on planets, we were fighting in space colonies or dogfighting in spaceships. We, ah, didn't get a lot of downtime. That's war for you. But, anyway, after decades of that and everything else we went through during the war, I felt like I had to get back to my roots. So once everything settled down I came back to Earth and became something of a nomad for a while before I finally found this place and made the choice to try and settle down, give Rangering a chance and save lives."

"Basslet. You've got quite a story, huh? If you're up to it I'd love to hear more about your adventures in space. But in the meantime I hope we can provide the home you've been looking for here. Work around here can be tough, and so can my partner, but we're more than a team. We're a family. All of us. Trust me when I say we'll have your back, Kurata."

"Thanks Torrent. I know the feeling. You watch my back and I'll watch yours. If anybody messes with you? I'll suplex them into the ground."

"Shhhaaaaaa-sha-sha-shaaaa! Oh I love you already girl! We're going to be best friends!" Torrential declared and clapped her back.

THE HEADQUARTERS INTERIOR!

BACK WITH VLAD!

"I was trained in Combat and The Dark Arts for over a century. I think I can handle a Year Long Hell Week. Sounds like fun actually."

"Praytell, who trained you in combat anyway?"

"My parents primarily. Malachi Graveblade and Luna Devildirge. Plus I would routinely spar with my siblings and instructors growing up. Those were some harsh lessons but I could handle them. I just needed some blood and I'd be good as new and ready to continue my lessons."

"Yeah, hey, where did the blood in your home come from? You obviously aren't getting that much blood from donors..."

"Oh that?" Vlad asked her. "We use a Blood Crystal from The Neodriethal Dimension. We hooked it up to what is functionally a MagiTech Generator and it's able to supply blood throughout the castle." He explained. "They aren't easy to acquire, getting past the Caverns Creatures is basically a rite of passage for my family, but if you're able to grab the Crystal and make it back, it eliminates any need to feed on the living." He folded his arms. "Sadly, not all of our kind are willing to transition to such a useful method to sate the thirst. Hopefully by working with the Agency I can present a better example that will help change some minds."

Vladmir couldn't see her expression but her body language told him more than enough. She was impressed. "Wow. You're deeper than I thought. I'll have to do some research on these Blood Crystal Caverns. You said it was in the Neodriethal Dimension?"

"Yeah. The Nightmare Dimension. It's not a pleasant place to visit even for Vampires. The only real plus is that there's no sunlight. The creatures there are beings comprised of nightmares, shadows and darkness and Gargandorah is the Head Honcho out of all of them."

"Never heard of that one."

"Gargandorah is....well...the closest approximation we can see is a massive reptillian-esque black widow spider. We call her The Spider Queen but that might just be her physical avatar. She tests all those who come to that dimension and guards the caverns. If you want a Blood Crystal you'll have to earn it."

"Yikes. Sounds intimidating."

"Oh she is but it's worth it." A thought occurred to him. "Now that I think about it, I'll have to go back and retrieve a smaller crystal sometime and give it to the labs. See what they can replicate from it. First thing's first though. I'll need to pass training. That's going to be fun."

"That does sound like a good idea! I'm sure the Magic and Science Divisions would love to take a look at the crystals." She replied and pumped her fists. "Will you need any help?"

"Hmmmmm. I'll need to think about that. I can navigate the nightmarish unreality of that dimension easily enough but I can't say for sure how it would affect the others yet. But don't worry about it for now. We'll cross that bridge when we come to it."

"Sounds good." Kitty raised her hands up and laced her fingers as she stretched and then she lowered them down behind where her head would be. "So what else would you like to talk about?"

"Well, since you brought up The Science Division, do you guys still have The Dracul Changer?"

"Your homemade Morpher right? Yeah the Science Division has been keeping it in storage since you donated it. They worked with The Magic Division to incorporate elements from The Dacul Changer and The Franken Morpher that Victor created into the suits to upgrade them further and we'll still have those designs as backup in case of emergency." Kitty Griffin explained while gesturing with her gloves.

"That's brilliant! Hey can we stop by there? See how they're doing? Victor is planning to go through training with us after all."

"Sure! We've got enough time! Come on I'll lead the way!"

The Laboratory was more like a massive sprawling BioPunk Fueled City where the organic nature of the base was fused with technology and steel to create the living breathing biomechanical and surrealistic environment inhabited by the members of the Science Division who worked all around the massive laboratory location clad in advanced futuristic silver and green hazmat suits. A number of them are human but there are also various creatures from various other species working with them and their suits are designed to fit with the various creatures and fits them perfectly. Considering the wide variety of experiments they are working with the hazmat suits are a necessity for both safety and legal reasons.

Among the various humans and creatures working in the lab one colossal man was towering over the others. His body was tall and powerfully built, a giant of a man with the green skin one would expect to see from a zombie with wavy turquoise hair he kept well combed. He had a square jaw and an almost handsome face if you could get past the dead skin. Underneath his hazmat suit and clothes his skin was covered in stitches and scars from the surgical and chemical procedures to create his body. Due to his mother's manipulation of the LRP5, MTSN, and other factors he grew to have a powerful body with near unbreakable bones and skin. His glowing yellow-reddish eyes looked out of his goggles and hazmat suit at the environment as he took notes over the experiment in the tank in front of him.

His Mother/Creator Adamina Frankenstein flew down to him on top of a flying anti-gravity platform. While obviously nowhere near as tall as her giant son she was a tall curvaceous voluptuous woman underneath her hazmat suit with a beautiful face and chocolate brown hair she kept tied up in a bun on and off the clock. Like her son she preferred to wear goggles that analyzed her surroundings to detect and record information from the environment whilst providing visual displays for the user that she could cycle through.

"Hey there Vick! How's the experiment going?" Adamina Frankenstein asked him.

"The Artificial Lifeform's Larval Form is gestating nicely." Victor replied. His great booming deep voice further emphasized his powerful build and provided a funny contrast to his mother's more sweet husky voice. "It will obviously take time to reach its later developmental stages but I have a good feeling about the development of the lifeform. I'm sure it will be beautiful."

"That's my boy!" She high-fived him with Victor just holding up his hand and his mother pushing hers against his. He was solid as a rock. More proof of her excellent design. "Are you ready to begin your training?"

"I've been preparing for it all year. I just wanted to get in some work beforehand. The price of success is hard work, dedication to the job at hand, and the determination that whether we win or lose, we have applied the best of ourselves to the task at hand. Vince Lombardi said that and it is one of our guiding principles." Victor quoted. "Besides, I won't be back for 15 Months right? I might as well get as much work in as I can beforehand."

"So wise, Victor! I'm SO proud of you! As a Mother and your loving creator. You're a magnificent work of art my son."

"I owe it all to your excellent design, mother." He replied sincerely.

She took a bow. "You're so sweet." Adamina replied as the platform descended to the floor and simply merged with it and disappeared as she walked off. "Lets see by my calculations Kitty should be bringing Vlad towards the labs right now."

"Ah yes Vlad. It'll be nice to see him again. I've missed the Undead Gentleman. As a Constructed Creature, a Golem constructed of undead body parts, I find myself intrigued by the nature of beings such as him. I myself stand in the twilight, the middle ground of living and undead, I would like to learn more about his un-life as a natural born vampire. Undead beings procreating and producing life in the same manner as humans seems contradictory and yet they are able to create pureblood born vampires in the same manner as living mammals. A Turned Child will stop aging after a short time but Pureblood Children will age into young adulthood before their aging halts and they become unageing quasi-immortals. Truly a fascinating subject and we have all the time in the world to learn to understand it."

"An excellent analysis. Their nature is supernatural so it won't necessarily follow the same laws as the living would which gives them some leeway in breaking the rules of biology. I do know however that Vampiric Mothers often find themselves drinking more blood than normal to provide for their child and the Vampiric Infants are bathed in blood until they're old enough to start walking and drinking from cups." Adamina shrugged. "Anyway, we have all the time in the world to figure it out. Go ahead and go see your friend and prep for training dear."

"Yes mother. Thank you. I promise to make you proud." He stepped forward and hugged his mother gently and she did the same. After their big Frankenstein hug he turned and walked away and a floating platform grew out of the floor and carried him into the air.

The various scientists around the Science Division BioCity stood up and waved and cheered him on.

"YYEEEAAAH VICTOR! VICTOR! GO FOR IT MAN! YOU'VE GOT THIS! MAKE US PROUD, SON! GO FOR IT BIG MAN!" They cheered him on and he laughed and waved back to them.

Reaching the changing station he walked into the door and relaxed as the de-contimaination procedures cleaned off his Hazmat Suit. He slowly removed it and placed it into a shelf for cleaning and let it take the suit. The shelf closed back up and he walked out to the inner parts of the lab and left for his room to get changed.

When Vlad arrived Victor was waiting for him.

The Vampire grinned and casually walked up to him. "Hey big guy! How's work been?"

"I love what I'm doing, doing what I love and giving myself to it with all of my heart. I've been living my best life my undead fanged friend!" Victor replied and they fist bumped and snapped their fingers at each other and raised their 'finger guns' in the air. "POW!"

"That's awesome. I'm glad to hear it. Are you going to be ready for training?"

"Oh I am more than ready. I've been eagerly anticipating the chance to put this powerful body of mine to work! It will be the ultimate test of mother's scientific prowess!"
