3 Months later...

The world economy fell to ruin as Aiden Moore continually destroyed every major businesses throughout the world in his rampage, the people now know nothing but fear of dying at Aiden's hands as it seems inevitable, Apollo's Eye is no longer involved with the case of Aiden Moore in light of Aurora Valiant's disappearance the night of her family's demise... Multiple vigilante groups across the world are attempting to fight Aiden off with so little success, best thing they are doing is saving as much lives as they possibly could, as this ruthless terrorist is starting to get recognized as a real threat to the planet and society as a whole, nearly all countries in the world are developing weapons that can kill him after the collapse of the US Government, ever since Aiden destroyed The Pentagon and shortly after brought down the White House.
While the world is preparing for a full-blown war against the mightiest terrorist to ever live, the former president of Apollo's Eye Isabella Moretti and her assistant Daniel Björn are on a mission...

May 5th 2025
The Telemark, Norway: 1:25PM

Daniel: "Umm where are we now?"

Isabella: "We just drove past the outskirts of the city, now we're in The Telemark."

Daniel: "How's the search going?"

Isabella: "Not well, Aurora has abandoned her usual costume, so now she can be in the middle of civillians and no one would recognize her."

Daniel: "What are we doing here?"

Isabella: "A few hours ago a reported meteor hit the center of The Telemark region here in Norway, some witnesses said it was more like a small sphere of energy not a rock, but was quickly dismissed as a meteor strike."

Daniel: "But you think it was Aurora?"

Isabella: "Yes..."

Daniel: "Why do you wanna find her anyway? I don't think she'll be able to defeat Aiden either way."

Isabella: "You think it's a waste of time to go after her?"

Daniel: "Kinda... But maybe she figured out a way to defeat him so it'd be fortunate if we find her."

Isabella: "I know you aren't that heartless Björn, I only wanna see her to give her my condolences."

Daniel: "Right, that too."

Isabella: "She lost everything so quickly, something tells me she blames herself."

Daniel: "And isn't that accurate?"

Isabella: "Excuse me?"

Daniel: "She knew she was interfering with an extremely dangerous superhuman, she knew the risks and still she wasn't careful, she killed his family so he killed hers in retribution, she should have saw it coming but she didn't, she wouldn't have even guessed until you uttered the word "Retaliation", at the end of the day, she was not careful."

Isabella: "Say that again. I fucking dare you!"

Daniel: "You know I'm right Miss Moretti, Aiden's rampage on this world is her doing, at first he was targeting minor populations, attempting to kill those he deems "Evil" but ever since she killed his family he's been killing everyone regardless of what's inside their heart."

Isabella: "I won't deny that what you say is true, but do not say any of this in front of Aurora."

Daniel: "Of course... but why come to Norway?"

Isabella: "We'll find out soon, we're here."

Isabella and Daniel exit the car in the middle of nowhere, they make their way towards a location that's pinged on Isabella's GPS.
