The Ancients Return

Part 1: An Ancient Discovery

Agent 3, a skilled and fearless operative, had been exploring Alterna to gather power balls to get to the next island. Equipped with her Hero Shot and unwavering determination, she was passing tests over and over, gaining more power balls and letting her Small Fry open up new paths.

As Agent 3 ventured further into the island, the air grew colder, and the silence became deafening. She then stepped on a metal floor that broke by her weight, falling into a dark hallway underground, the flickering lights cast eerie shadows on the walls, creating an atmosphere of suspense and mystery. She cautiously made her way through the dimly lit underground hallway, her heart pounding from that fall, exploring this new area with caution and curiosity.

The hallway seemed to stretch on endlessly, with no signs of life or any indication of what lay ahead. The only sound was the echo of her footsteps, reverberating through the desolate corridor. Suddenly, a gust of wind blew through the hallway, extinguishing the flickering lights, plunging Agent 3 into complete darkness.

A bit frightened, Agent 3 activated her flashlight, illuminating the path before her. The flashlight revealing a door, barely visible in the dimness. Curiosity piqued, she approached the door cautiously, her hand trembling slightly as she reached for the handle.

With a creak, the door swung open, revealing a vast hanger bay. The room was filled with an assortment of work benches and parts, all of them having been either flipped over or broken. The air was heavy with the scent of oil and metal, and the sound of her footsteps instantly filled the space.

Agent 3's eyes widened in awe as she realized the significance of her discovery. This hanger bay had proven to her that there is more to Alterna than she thought. Agents 1 and 2 had suspected that Alterna was more than just a bunch of islands, and now Agent 3 had stumbled upon the evidence.

As she explored the hanger bay, Agent 3 noticed part of what seemed to be a wing under the cover of some fabric. This discovery only deepened her curiosity to find out more about this strange place.

Determined to uncover the hidden object, Agent 3 took off the fabric, being extremely cautious as to what could be behind it. As she took it off completely, it appeared to be some sort of aircraft, although appearing to be almost identical in size to the Octobot King that Octavio uses. The more she discovered, the more questions arose.

Agent 3 stumbled upon some words on both sides of the bird-like wings, and as she read them, she concluded that this supposed aircraft was named "KTP-T82". On one of the walls, she found a control panel that seemed to be turned off, and finding a power box, she decided to turn on the power, and see what this panel does.

She walks over towards the power box, and flips the switch, turning on the flickering lights, and bringing the control panel to life. What she didn't expect upon reaching the panel though was a message already on the screen.

"Activate Class-16 'KTP-T82'?"

As she looked at the console, she hovered her finger over the "Activate" button, wondering if this is a good idea. She pondered for a moment, before finally pressing the button, creating a new message.

"Order received; KTP-T82 activation sequence underway."

The sounds of wires moving around caught her attention, looking back at the aircraft, it now seems to have blue lights on its hull, as jet sounds come from it, she expected it to go forward like what jets usually did when she saw one.

Instead, it hovered over the ground, only for it to fall back down, creating a loud "BANG" sound from impact, making her jump a bit. She looks over at the console, surprised on it's next message.

"Not enough power; Eye of Terra required."

She was confused, she has never heard something like that before, not even the word "Terra" could help her as she did not know what it even ment in the first place. But, realizing the magnitude of her discovery, Agent 3 knew she had to report back to Captain 3 and Agents 1 & 2 immediately.
