Back at Force 127 HQ

-

Despite all of my efforts in this fight, I ended up losing.

I refused to use my full power, but only because I didn't want to destroy this place, and I couldn't bring myself to hurt my brothers. So because I've lost, a number things have happened.

The enemy, who I've come to find out call themselves The Gang Stars, have taken over this HQ. All of my teammates are under their control, and are forced to do their bidding.

Their leader had taken control of every hero at the HDJ, and is trying to take control of every other hero on Ethora. Because of this, the citizens can't fight back, and are forced to live under the rule of The Gang Stars.

As for me, I've become their prisoner and victim of torture. Despite all of this, I can feel that all of the citizens are rooting for me. Knowing that they still believe in me is enough encouragement to keep me going.

In the Training Room

-

I've come to learn that the leader of The Gang Stars momentarily left Ethora in his group's hands, and went off to another world to find his own place to settle.

This leaves me in the hands of our doubles, so they can do as they please with me.

They brought me into our old training room, and roughly threw me to the ground. I tried using my powers to try and attack them, but none of them worked and one of them knocked me back down.

"Don't even try to fight back. I used my power to turn off all of your powers completely. It's not so fun being powerless once again, is it?"

My double mocked me.

"You won't get away with this..."

"Ah. The classic hero line. Your desperation is sickening. I thought you were supposed to be the number one hero of this planet, but you barely even put up a fight against your brothers back there"

Jeno's double folded his arms.

I took this moment to get a good look at all of them.

Mark's double had bleached hair similar to his, almost covered by a beanie, and he was accompanied by his two wolf dog companions. Unlike Mark, he has a warm aura instead of cold.

My double had bleached hair with purple tips, opposed to my curly brown hair, and a piercing under his right eye. He may look just like me, but he's definitely not a Nephalem like me. I would've sensed that from miles away if that was the case.
