Intergalactic-4, the team that was supposed to save the reality. Lost. But somehow Mars wanted to fix this. How? they didn't know, but they'll sure try.

The echoing silence was suddenly stopped as a bleeping noise was heard.

Mars looked over at Jones and saw him rummaging though his jacket. "What are you doing? Whats that noise?" Mars questioned, but was replied with silence. The bleeping became louder as Jones pulled something from the inside of his jacket.

"My Earpiece! It's got a signal!" Jones shouted. The other 3 were refilled with hope as Jones called for the cavalry. "Captain? Do you copy? This is Sargent Jones! Do you copy?"

The piece rang with static. Nobody was answering.

"Loud and clear Jones. We got the data. Drive downloaded it to the cloud. We're on our way. Be ready." Replied the Foundation.

"DWAYNE! Oh it's great to hear your voice buddy! We're in the holding cells! We'll be here waiting." Jones exclaimed.

The squad prepped themselves for a fight. Maybe the plan didn't fail after all. Maybe somehow, this is how fate decided it was meant to be.

Explosions were heard above the cell. The squad knew it was time. The alarms were sounded and the hallways were painted with red light.

The Final Assualt had begun.

BANG! The wall came crashing down and the dust began to clean. Dwayne could be seen walking through the cloud and ripping the cell door off. "Let's go." He said, throwing a bag of guns on the floor.

The squad grabbed some loot and headed for the towers core. The zeropoint.

"Jones, I know who's running this mission. Its Agent Slone." The foundation said. "Slone? You mean the manager of the command centre? Nono that can't be right!" Jones said confused.
"She's the leader of the army they have set up. She's a dictator, genos right hand lady." The foundation explained.

Jones was puzzled but knew what that meant. This was gonna be a tough fight. With his experience I'm the field with slone he knows she's resilient and won't stop for nothing.

The battle had only just begun.

"Mars and Jones, head to the testing Chambers to shut off the power cables to the zeropoints holding cell. Me and the others will hold off the guards." Foundation Commanded. The two nodded and ran toward the test Chambers doors. Carefully Jones breached the room checking all corners to make sure it's clear.

"Not so fast, traitor!" Said a voice behind the two. They both span round and saw a man in a bulky yellow suit. A chemist of some sort. They aimed their guns to the man and he did not hesitate to pull the level next to him locking the shutters trapping the two inside the lab.

"Nonono! We can't go back to help take out the guards!" Jones shouted. Mars ran to jones to comfort him. "Hey! Its alright, let's finish our mission. We can help somehow, I promise." Mars placed their hand upon Jones cheek and stroked it with their thumb. The two looked into eachothers eyes and smiled. They felt safe together; like it's them vs the world. The smile fell and they eyes only gazed further. Jones leaned in and kissed Mars' lips. They pulled apart and smiled. Jones, was hesitating to say something, like he couldn't find the words to speak. "Go on dear, say what you want to say." Mars quietly said.

"I love you, mars"

"I love you too, Jones. Now let's finish this mission."
