Previously on Team Azure, in another time and place, a rabbit Warrior trained with Boltong, the Mechagnome, Pseudo-Supreme Kai of Daisuke's timeline. The mysterious rabbit Warrior perfected every aspect of his class training, impressing Boltong. The rabbit Warrior held no hostility toward the Pseudo-Supreme Kai, rather, he wanted to perfect himself as a swordsman. During an interaction referencing Daisuke, the Warrior showed Boltong an indigo gun, Boltong inspected the tech, deciphering it as a projectile shooting weapon that sucks in enemies within a black hole of void energy, and erases them from existence. 

Under the impression the rabbit Warrior made the Void Gun, Boltong asked if it was truly his creation, to which the Warrior claimed he was not a technological kind of rabbit. During the finals of a Japanese Fighting Game Tournament, a familiar blue macaw of the Monk class that is totally not Gavin of Team Azure, sarcasm intended, created the Void Gun for his Warrior friend as a sign of respect. (Totally not) Gavin considered the Warrior his equal, and eventually the two hit it off with a simple talk, realizing they had a lot more in common than they realized outside of their occasional skirmishes. 

Despite the Warrior's words of subtlety, Boltong easily picked up on the fact that him and Gavin were friends, but what he didn't know was that the Warrior had an objective to see and reunite with Gavin, hearing about his success within Team Azure. But the question is, who is this Warrior? And why does he want to reunite with Gavin?

Elsewhere on Earth 110, the battle between Aura and Team Azure, under the temporary leadership of Gavin, has begun, after clearing through the army of skeletal bystanders, Leo and Valentina purified Aura's necromancy from the skeletons, reverting them back into still angry protestors, only this time, they were blaming Team Azure for Aura turning them into skeletons. 

A ticked Shaldon teleports the protestors back to their original timelines and the battle proceeds, Aura's attempt to destroy the planet recklessly was halted thanks to Leo's Moonlight Shadow resetting it's action to zero, therefore making it never happen in the first place. As the battle with Aura rages on, Shaldon teleports Team Azure, and Aura, to a rocky place far away from the citizens of New Suramar, per Gavin's command in recognition of Aura being a planetary danger. 

After Leo decimated Aura's immunities on a conceptual scale with Moonlight Shadow, he recognizes that the lines that binds Aura's concept are blurry, questioning his strange physiology, Leo, and Team Azure for that matter, are given some lore behind the undead necromancer. 

Since Aura was a pup, he had a fascination with the concept of death. Aura would kill and stuff human, deep down craving attention from his family. When he heard a voice from beyond the grave one day, he went to the source of it and was blessed with an Ebon Chandelier collar by a ghost fading from existence. The apparition commended Aura for his great connection to undeath, and would make for an amazing successor. This was Aura's descent into madness, after killing his own family, Aura then committed suicide in order to strengthen his connection to death. Later on in his life, Aura met the Cyan Titans that sought to upstage Team Azure, at the time of Aura's recruitment, a shocking twist was revealed on who the leader of the Cyan Titans was. 

The now deceased Iris, AKA The Master, the villain that formed the Superior Six to attack Team Azure directly in their home, New Suramar. Iris was a variant of Daisuke, just like the other members of the Cyan Titans, this however, was unknown to the present heroes. 

After Aura's story concluded, he heavily expressed his faith in Ultra's premonition of Team Azure failing, claiming that the Cyan Titans are better, and will defeat the Chaos unlike them. Furious at the flawed logic behind Ultra's prophecy, Gavin challenges Aura, one on one, winning effortlessly and strategically thanks to a perfectly timed Touch of Karma, a standard Monk ability that reflects back damage and it's effects. Oh, right, Gavin's Matrix Kernel evolved from 8 dimensional to 12 dimensional, overpowering a layered soul manipulation resistance in the process as well.
