(Sawano and Braylon then walked into the lobby of a workshop which Braylon was talking with the receptionist as Sawano waited.)
"Braylon: Hi there, I'm wondering if there's a Dr. Vaughan here?"
"Receptionist: Of course, he's in the lab right-"
(An explosion inside the lab happened which rumbled the office and smoke was coming from the inside behind the soundproof doors.)
"in there..."
"Braylon: Thank you."
(Braylon placed on a safety mask as Sawano walked in without one.)
"Wait! Sawano your mask!"
"Sawano: Senvoinians have immunity to anything toxic, same thing goes for alcohol as well."
"Braylon: Oh okay..."
(Dr. Vaughan then coughed as he then threw his invention at the wall which broke apart.)
"U-Uh.. Alonso..?
"Dr. Vaughan: WHA?! WHO'S THERE?! WHO GAVE YOU CLEARANCE TO ENTER?!"
"Braylon: Whoa whoa whoa wait! Its me, Braylon?! You revealed one of your science inventions in America in several different states!"
"Dr. Vaughan: Wait.. Ohh, its that Braylon?! Nathanial's father?! Come in, come in!"
(Sawano and Braylon walked further deeper into the lab as they both saw countless inventions which was discarded, abandoned or broken down.)
"Braylon: How many inventions did you even make..?"
(Dr. Vaughan then scratched his head to the question and focused on one of his current inventions which was an elemental storage cube and discharger. He then replied with a energetic yet calm voice.)
"Dr. Vaughan: I may have made over nine hundred forty one inventions... why do you ask?"
"Braylon: We need your assist with something. You see there's this United Government-"
"Dr. Vaughan: SAY NO MORE! ALLOW ME TO INTRODUCE YOU TO A PROJECT I'VE BEEN WORKING ON FOR EXACTLY TWO MONTHS!"
(He rushed to the back of his lab and slammed his invention on the table, hyperventilating with excitement. Sawano was interested in the invention more than his hyperventilation.)

"Sawano: So what is this?"
"Dr. Vaughan: THIS my friend... IS THE OPTIMAL STEALTH GIZMO!"
"Sawano: What does this do?"
"Dr. Vaughan: Once hooked to one's body part, it will generate stealth for that person's body for a limited amount of time! Even hiding every last one your senses!!!"
(He'd place the gizmo on Sawano's torso which turned him invisible but instead started to make his entire body blink random colors of light.)
"Sawano: Uh..."
"Dr. Vaughan: My mistake! I've miscalculated that!"
(He quickly removed it from Sawano which he was normal again and went to the back to find another invention as fast as possible.)
"Sawano: Has he always been like this?"
"Braylon: More or less."
"Dr. Vaughan: BEHOLD! THE AMPLIFED LASER MANIPULATOR!"
"Sawano: Manipulator?"
"Dr. Vaughan: Aim this at a pinpoint location and in ten seconds, this laser shoots at light speed with the ability to manipulate any and all matter!"
"???: Master, I have returned with the body."
(A female cyborg then walked into the lab with a deceased body of a humanoid creature until he saw Braylon and Sawano which he dropped the body and quickly activated his defensive protocol  which Dr. Vaughan then stopped him from attacking.)
"Cyborg: Explain yourselves intruders!"
"Dr. Vaughan: WAIT WAIT WAIT! This is Braylon and Sawano, I'm familiar with these two! End the defensive protocol, code green!"
"Cyborg: Command accepted. Defensive mode off. Forgive me, master."
(The weapons then was deactivated as he picked the corpse back up and lays it on the dissection table and Dr. Vaughan then tied it down for examination.)
"Dr. Vaughan: You've made an excellent catch! All I need out of this is a few things then feel free to dispose of the corpse."
"Cyborg: Understood."
"Sawano: So um.. Dr. Vaughan, who's this?"
(He then turned around after pulling out the creature's rib cage and placing it to the side.)

"Dr. Vaughan: This is my assistant helper and.. most likely my daughter. Cyborg Machine number twenty nine or his name Idxx."
"Idxx: Forgive me for my rudeness. I am aware of your deeds Mr. Magachi, you have my gratitude for saving not just saving the world from death, the universe too."
"Sawano: I appreciate it... Wait, machine number twenty nine? You made cyborgs like these?
"Dr. Vaughan: Of course!"
(The three of them walked into the back of the lab past two doors which lead to an elevator. After going down the elevator, they've entered the cybernetic underground city which was ran by cyborgs as far as the eye could see. Sawano and Braylon was surprised.)
"Behold! 'The city of Cyborgs' Cytropolis!"
"Sawano: What in the..."
"Braylon: Alonso, how did you make this..?"
"Dr. Vaughan: This took me about fourteen to seventeen months to complete and after creating all these cyborgs, they've decided to live on their own. Considering that technology could one day betray their actual masters, I created this entire city for them so they'd never dream of betrayal. I gave them everything they wanted or needed."
"Braylon: This is... astounding..."
"Dr. Vaughan: Ah yes, Idxx. Any luck of tracking Scyroid?"
"Sawano: Scyroid?"
"Dr. Vaughan: Yes. Idxx here brought him in when he was a mere human. There was a car crash in which he was still conscious considering his human body was split in twos. Idxx pulled him out of the wreckage while he was close to death in that tragic accident. We repaired him, but Idxx wanted to take care of it herself."
"Idxx: When he was given cybernetic parts, he was half human but part-cyborg. He ran away, I tried looking for him for years. We couldn't even find him on the tracker."
"Sawano: I got a lock. He's somewhere in Japan but he's not on land..."
"Idxx: Wait- Huh?! How did you get a lock on- He's in the ocean!"
"Dr. Vaughan: If we can hurry, we can stop his parts from being far beyond repairable!"
(The four of them hurried out of the lab as Sawano then teleported them to the location which they'd all appear on an abandoned highway which lead in and out of Yamaguchi and Sawano then caught a closer lock on Scyroid.)
