Kai's POV
I enter the my team dorms seeing everybody there waiting for me, and my brother with pissed off face expression. And I think I know what their angry about.

Kai: Uhhh? Is this about using SIVA.

Jackson: *sarcastically* Oh, no we're planning a surprise party for with piñata and Ice cream cake!

Star: *gasp of excitement* Really?

Jackson: No!

Star: *sad* Aww.

Jackson: Why do have SIVA, the most dangerous thing that almost kill a lot guardian including the iron lords?!

Kai: Look I can explain.

Jackson: What?! That some how you manage to snatch a SIVA for you can have it, and use it on fight!

Weiss: Can somebody explain to us, what the heck is SIVA?!

Jackson: SIVA is the thing you saw from Crimson.

All: What?

Zack: Before the collapse Clovis Bray began work on SIVA at the height of the Golden Age, alongside a similar project known to the Guardians only as Transmission. While Transmission was intended to enhance the strength, speed, and intelligence of prospective colonists using nanomachines, SIVA used nanomachines to break down matter and reconstitute it in order to rapidly construct entire cities.

Ruby: Wow.

Jackson: The Transmission project was eventually shuttered after it caused unforeseen side-effects in test subjects, and Clovis Bray focused entirely on SIVA, which was later completed and approved for deployment. So confident was Clovis Bray in SIVA's capabilities that they eschewed adding safety measures, such as a kill switch. The first SIVA replication chamber, designated Site 6, was built within the Cosmodrome in order to outfit the colony ships. One such colony ship was the Exodus Black, which carried a cache of SIVA on it's journey to colonize Kepler-186. What became of the cache is unknown but it may have survived the crash on Nessus and may be in the ruins of the Exodus Black.

Star: We all know you don't understand stand a clue.

Then Ruby sit in a corner of the room, with sad face expression.

Weiss: If that technology was so advanced only to help humanity, why it was dangerous?

Soul: Years ago It was later rediscovered by the Iron Lords during the early City Age.

Yang: Iron Lord?

Soul: In the first years after the Collapse, a time before the rise of the Vanguard and the Last City, some of the earliest Guardians to be revived chose not to protect the world, but subjugate it. Taking over various parts of the planet, some Guardians became Warlords and injustice reigned, with the rest of the populace living under the tyranny of the various factions. Eventually, Guardians with integrity chose to stand up to their tyrannical brethren and form the Iron Lords.

Blake: Wait they were first Guardians.

Yang: That's actually cool.

Kai: But it wasn't cool for them.

Ruby: Huh?

Kai: When a member of the Iron Lords, Saladin and his comrades discovered SIVA, a self-replicating nanotechnology created during the Golden Age. They believed it could be used to aid them in protecting humanity, but it turned against them. Unable to destroy the techno-virus, the Iron Lords sealed it beneath the earth. However, the virus claimed the Iron Lords, and Saladin was one of the only two to survive.
