The team goes back to where things all began to confront Shaw. On the brink of collapse, Monarch takes drastic measures.


The five of them were all in a modestly tight elevator taking them somewhere deep below, Monarch Headquarters is apparently where they're headed.

The doors one to a hallway littered with boxes and boxes stacked on top of one another, not exactly the Headquarters Bill would've imagined this place to be.

"Welcome to Monarch" Tim told the four of them as he tried to tidy the place up, not like it would fix anything of how the place looked already.

"This is what our grandparents built?" Kentaro asked, not expecting the organization that's been chasing them and tracking monsters to look like this.

"Doesn't exactly seem like much" Bill said as he lifted a piece of paper and placed it on top of another one.

"Uh, well, yeah they keep saying we're gonna move into a bigger space but um, I'll believe it when I see it, done in we're late" he waved to them.

"I don't see any Randa's up here, I thought we were Monarch Royalty" Cate said as she looked at a wall of portraits filled with people of Monarch.

"Huh, you think they'd be up here, considering how much they've done in this business" Bill shook his head.

"Well you're family has kind of a complicated legacy here, after your grandmother died, your grandfather became obsessed, starting pushing all these theories about teleportation and wormholes real, tinfoil hat type of stuff" Tim explained to the young people while walking backwards and facing them.

Bill mostly eye rolled at that, they lived in a world with monsters of all shapes sizes and looks, teleportation doesn't exactly seem that far fetched anymore.

"Is that why we're here? To get fitted for our tin foil hats?" Kentaro asked the older man sarcastically.

"Let your freaky fly flag bro" Tim joked as he scanned a lock and opened a door, revealing a place that seems kind of cool actually to Bill.

"This is your legacy" Tim exclaimed to the them, pointing out to the entire room of the large place.

"This is more like it" May smiled, knowing that this is her type of place that she's familiar with.

The room had a circle like shape, large monitor screens on the wall that showed the world's continents and islands, as well as people working on desk monitors as well.

"Monarch has outpost all over the world, right now, they are picking up Gamma Ray Burst just like we saw before G-Day, Alaska, North Africa, places we know your father's been"

"So what is he causing it? Is that what you're saying?" Kentaro asked as he looked towards the man.

"No, I'm not but these are all points on the map that you saw in his office, is he predicting them or is he following them?" Tim wondered.

"Good questions, we do questions really well around here, but what we need right now are some answers, Shaw and his people just detonated a large explosion near the site we picked you up at in Alaska" Natalie Verdugo told them as she had walked up to them.

"The Gamma Ray Emmisons coming from that area dropped to zero" She explained to them.

"Well that sounds good" May said hopeful.
