Its been about a week since the events of what happened in the Hero Universe. We returned back to the HQ to report the news of Zeref's demise as well as the arrest of Jacob and Neinhart. As for Brandish, with her trade of Wonder Woman, she was able to convince the council to let her join us. Oh, before I forget, my name is Connor. I'm the one telling this story. Long story short, I died. But then i got infused with Haken's abilities, and that somehow jolted me back to life. I got back to work and did some jobs with Betty, my fly girl, and formed a team of Col. Mustang, Lt. Riza Hawkeye and one of Astros unfortunate guinea pigs tuned Parasyte/Enhanced mix, Morph. Were… still working on figuring out the split persona thing with her Parasite instincts and her cheerful, bubbly personality. As for Brandish, it was hard to adapt to her at first but we got used to it. Things were pretty quiet after what happened with Brainiac...until…

"The Dark Cruiser?" Connor asked.

"Yes. With that thing sunk, it could become a target for evil more powerful than Flux. While he was weak in body, he had a multitude of ideas and projects onboard. We need you to try and find it and destroy any sort of plans he has left over." Vigor said.

"I see. And if any of these projects are….biological?"" Betty asked.

"Destroy them." Heat said.

"U-Understood, we'll get right on it." Morph said.

"For the mission, we will provide you a six man submarine in order to search the sea floor. According to sightings by locals, it apparently sunk somewhere near the star archipelago, a group of star shaped islands." Metala said.

"Then thats where were going." Connor said.

Heading to the ship, they carried the Sub with them. Which was easy thanks to Brandish's Command T: Reduction. They arrived at the Star Archipelago.

"This is the place." Connor said taking out the miniature submarine. "So uh… do you need a good line of sight to expand something? I don't wanna get caught in the line of fire."

"It doesn't work like that. I can focus to a point." Brandish said expanding the sub to normal size.

"Whoa, at least let me put in the water first!" Connor said throwing it in desperately as it splashed up. "Now let's get in."

The six of them entered the sub as they descended down below the depths of the sea as they started searching the seafloor.

"Wow…" Morph said looking through the periscope. "Its so amazing down here. Look at all these sea creatures long for gotten."

"I can see Krakens, Leviathans, and I think a mermaid or two. But no ship yet." Betty said.

"Hmm. Wait, I think I see something up ahead." Mustang said as they came close to something. They shined a light forward as they saw a large black ship that had sunken and was lodged on a spire but the bizarre part was a large bubble around it.

"Hmm. It matches the picture I was given. This is the Dark Cruiser. Or rather was." Hawkeye said.

"Whats with the bubble around it?" Morph asked.

"Probably to keep in a supply of air. Meaning there's someone or something inside." Brandish said.

"Well, wed best get to it then." Connor said. "We board the Ship inside that bubble, and set the charges. ANd we stick together."

"Sound strategy." Mustang said.

They boarded the ship by entering the Bubble and through a loose hatch in the Dark Cruiser. They then made their way through the ship, which was slightly wet.

"Its wet in here." Morph said.

"Not surprising since we're underwater." Connor said as they looked at the empty hanger. "This looks like it was the hanger."

The six of them continued through the ship, inspecting some of the areas before entering the kitchen. On the counter was a sandwich as Morph inspected it.

"This was made, recently." Morph said taking a bite of it before they heard footsteps.

"Someone's coming." Connor said as they went to hide. They peeked out as they saw a chubby man with yellow hair walk in.

"Okay, been working hard to repair this place but things are on track." he said before seeing his sandwich with a bite. "Oh come on! Who's been eating my food?" he groaned heading back out.

Everyone looked at morph. "I Didn't know it was his sandwich, i swear!"

"Still, did you see how he looked?" Betty asked.

"Yeah, his physique and hairstyle… doesn't it remind you of Sophocles, bets?" Connor asked.

"A little, but that one didn't feel like a normal person. Its like that sensation with Psychic." Betty said.

"Yeah. I felt it too. She did say others like her were scouring the seas for Enhanced." Connor said.

"Its lucky we didnt get detected by him right away." Morph said.

"But this is an opportune moment. We can ambush him while he is distracted with repairing this ship. If he does, it could be a bit complicated." Mustang said.

"Great idea Colonel, but we don't know where he's going." Connor said.

"Maybe we do." Betty said pointing to a map of the ship as she looked it over. "Looks like its the main engine core. That's where a majority of the ships functions are."

"We got him." Connor said.

They made their way to the engine core as the man was working on the controls. Connor nodded to the others and pulled his six-shooters and quickly popped out, aiming at the man.

"Freeze, turkey!" Connor said abpruply, shooting at him.

"Huh?" he said as the shots in him regenerated. "What? Humans? Here? Sigh. Didn't think they could breathe underwater." he said. "Looks like I'll have to postpone the repairs."

"YOu've got the same regeneration factor as Psychic. That clinches it, youre just like her." Connor said.

"So you're the reason she never came back. I see. So she was captured. Yes, I am like her in a way. My name is Electric and you won't be escaping." he said clapping his hands and rubbing them as electricity began to generate.

"Crap, dodge it!" Connor said as they separated as a bolt of electricity missed them but reduced some trash to dust. Connor then saw Electric run to a red button and slamming on it, sounding an alarm.

"We've been compromised!" Betty said.

"Yes. As we speak, the rest of my kind is hearing the call and coming to this very room." Electric said. "It was pretty stupid of you to think you could pull off a quick win."

"Yeah, maybe we were a little overeager." Connor said. "But maybe theres a way to fix that."

He shot his six shooters at the teleporter controls, making them activate and spark.

"The Teleporter! Do you know what youve done?!" Electric asked.

"That was a hacking bullet. Set to lock on to you and the rest of your kind and send you to places you'll be stuck in until… someone finds you and…" Connor before before hearing a crunch as a large foot crushed the teleporters.

"Uh...I think I stepped on something." said a hulking man with large muscles and tan hair.

"Actually Rock, that was a good thing! You stoped the teleporter from sending us all away! And they caused it!" Electric said.

The being, called Rock, looked at the Team. "They have enhanced with them. Two of them."

"Oh yeah. I do sense that. This just makes things more easy." Electric said.

"Lemme guess, you two got the same orders Psychic did." Connor said before Rock tried to crush him but rolled away.

"I think that's a yes." Hawkeye said.

"Split up! Connor, you and I will handle electric! Morph, Brandish, Hawkeye, take the big one!" Mustang said.

"Got it!" Connor said.

"Yes, Colonel!" Hawkeye said.

Morph slumped over as her Parasite instincts took over. "Starting mission. We begin." she said as her hands enlarged as she punched at Rock, only for him not to move.

"He didn't budge?" Hawkeye said.

"You're pretty funny." Rock said grabbing the hand and crushing it as Morph cried in pain.

"He's even stronger than me." Morph groaned.

"Reduction!" Brandish said shrinking Rock down to a rock size. "Now we can…" she said before Rock started growing larger before returning to normal size. "He was able to cancel out my magic. That would mean...he's able to manipulate his size."

Hawkeye fired her pistol at rocks hand only for them to bounce off. "Bullet's don't even phase him. Its like he's a walking suit of armor."

Rock tossed morph aside. "Wanna see something interesting?"

"I dont think we want to, but by all means…" Hawk eye said aiming her pistol.

"Well, if you insist…" Rock said. "Rock Tomb!"

He slammed his hands on the ground as Rocks started falling from the sky from rifts. Brandish shrank a few rocks as Hawkeye dodged the others as they slammed into some equipment.

"Hey come on, rock! I just had those systems fixed!" Electric said.

"Sorry." Rock said curling up in sadness.

"Oh don't do that! I'm sorry I yelled!" Electric said.

Rock got up.

"Interesting. You look big and imposing, but you have very strong emotions." Brandish said.

"Yeah. He's strong but he's got a soft heart. But hey, no one's perfect." Electric said before landing a strike on Connor as he screamed in pain. "Luckily, even with Rock's attack, I'll still keep up to schedule."

"Then you'll be really disappointed." Mustang said raising his left hand. Snapping his fingers, he ignited fire as it shot at Electric, hitting him dead on, knocking him back.

"Fire huh? This is alchemy." Electric said regenerating.

"Thats right. Im a Flame Alchemist. ANd it looks like not even i can give you some good wounds." Mustang said.

"Allow me to return the favor, then!" Electric said gathering his hands with electricity. "Thunderbolt!" he shouted clapping his hands as electricity shocked Mustang, knocking him down.

"Rock tomb, Thunderbolt… is there anyone on this ship that doesnt know how to use Pokemon Moves?!" Connor asked.

"We are an advanced race created with a single purpose, making sure the Enhanced are erased and that we rule these...universes." Electric said as Connor looked surprise. "Yes...we know now thanks to Fight's accidental teleportation."

"Great…" Connot said. "But you dont have to...ah!... follow those orders...whoa!... you decide who you want to be!" Connor said dodging Electric's bolts and ROcks punches.

"We know. This is what we choose." Electric said.

"Yeah. We wanna do this." Rock said.

The six regrouped.

"Its only a matter of time before the rest of them get here." Mustang said.

"And two of them are already wiping the floor with us." Connor said.

"We have no choice. I think we should retreat." Hawkeye said.

"Where? Im sure they already found the sub outside!" Morph said, back to normal.

"Dammit, morph…" Connor said. "One course of action left." he said dropping his guns. "We surrender."

"Surrender?" Rock asked. "Don't we eliminate the enhanced, Electric?"

"True. But this is an opportunity to know more of what they are." Electric said before shocking the six of them knocking them out. "Take the four normal ones to the cells. I'm taking these two enhanced to Dragon."

When Connor awoke, he found himself tied back to back with Morph. "What the? What is…" he said before seeing figures across a new room he was in before seeing the imposing figure on the captain's chair looking down on him.

"So...we finally meet...enhanced race." he said.

"Youre… dragon?" Connor asked.

"What gave me away?" Dragon asked as he had dragon features.

"Call it a guess. Wait, where are my friends?" Connor asked.

"Do not worry. We haven't killed them...yet. But depending on how you supply info, we might change that." Dragon said.

"What kind of info?" Morph asked.

"Just a few questions. First, Enhanced. What exactly are they and do they have any weaknesses?" Dragon asked.

Connor, knowing he had no choice, opened up. "The enhanced are, certain… people. They get the skills of famous people in the universes after a freak explosion caused by Lord Raptor. Im serious when we say they don't have any weaknesses we know of. But the enhanced aren't evil, or something you should erase for no reason."

"That is not for you to decide. Next question. These other universes, do they really exist and can this ship travel through them?" Dragon asked.

"Yeah, universes do exist. There are 20 of em, and… yes. If Electric can get this ship up and running, you can go to them. But the universes aren't yours to rule. They're for everyone." Connor said.

"Last question...one of your friends mentioned a government. Tell me what that is." Dragon said.

"Its… a coalition of Leaders. Your relative Psychic, she killed one of them, Magus. The representative of the Magic Universe. It was on accident, she thought she was one of us." Connor said.

"I see. So they are the rulers. Then it is decided. We must eliminate this government first before ruling the worlds." Dragon said as the rest of the clones were eagerly agreeing with it.

"I think i just doomed my own government…" Connor said.

"No duh." Morph said.
