  An elevator door opens and a shadowy figure emerges. The figure searches for a light switch and turns on the lights.

The figure is revealed to be Maxwell Caine. He looks around. He's surrounded by a room full of boxes and crates labeled with the Edson Company's name.

Maxwell tells himself, "Richard said there was a project he was working on for me and Sylvia. How in the hell do I find it when it's surrounded by all this junk? This place is huge!"

An hour passes as Maxwell wanders and rummages through the Edson warehouse.

Maxwell sits on a crate and tells himself, "Sh#t! There's nothing here! Is this even the right warehouse?"

Maxwell takes another look around the warehouse and notices a runway for planes and other intended aircrafts. He thinks to himself, "Ohh sh#t. It's so obvious. Richard's probably laughing at me now."

Max hops off the crate and tells himself, "Well Richard and sis were always the smart ones."

As Maxwell makes his way toward the runway he looks at the various vehicles Richard has piloted.

Max stops at a peculiar vehicle. This one has no shape like a plane, blimp, or warship. It's because this vehicle looks like it's standing on two legs. It's covered in a large black tarp. Maxwell rips it off instantly.

His eyes widen as he sees what's underneath.

In front of Max stands a vehicle similar to Elias's aiutu design.

One of the main differences is it looks big enough for a grown person to step in.

Max catches himself in awe of the Edson created vehicle in front of him and says, "This looks amazing!"

He steps toward the machine, and almost as if it were a built in for him it lowers itself for Max and opens a doorway for him.

Once Max enters the opening it closes behind him and the machine stands back up. Its arms extend. Then from the front of the machine 2 glowing eyes pop up.

The machine turns around Max looks above him. He reads a sentence that appears in front of him from the machine. It says, "IVO SUPREMEO ONLINE"

Maxwell says, "Haha this is awesome!"
