Belle walked through the hallway, and noticed something going on in the lab. She cocked her head in curiosity and looked through the keyhole. On the other side of the door, was Lux and a few scientists working on something.

Lux: Tas Corp could be in a lot of trouble. If those two and Tari have met up, then we're gonna have a lot of problems. But I have a solution.

Tas Corp Scientist 1: And what is that, Lux?

Lux walked towards a blackboard and began to draw something.

Belle: What's he doing?

Lux: I say... We do this.

The scientists looked at the blackboard, and saw that Lux had drawn Tari, but she looked a little different.

Tas Corp Scientist 2: Huh? What's with the different features?

Lux: You'll see in a minute. I need to get something from my office.

Belle quickly hid behind a few boxes, as Lux left the lab and walked into his office.

Belle: What are you planning, Lux...? Hopefully nothing too crazy... *Sigh* I better get ready. My fans are coming in thirty minutes. 

Lux suddenly walked out of his office and went back into the lab carrying a capsule full of red liquid.

Belle: ...Is that... Blood? Ah, I'm not gonna get involved. Alright, let's do this.

Belle grabbed her controller and began to play some games.

Meanwhile...

Infinite pressed his foot against the brakes, as the armored car came to a stop.

Crystal: Well, that was fun!

Infinite: And awesome! Alright... Agh...

Crystal: You okay?

Infinite held the burn on his wound.

Infinite: Yeah... Damn, this stings.

Crystal: Here, sit down for now. 

The couple sat down on the grass and looked at the night sky.

Infinite: Wow... It's even more beautiful here...

Crystal: Hehe... Turlandb would love this. Man, I miss everyone...

Infinite: I do too... The real me and you... Smesh... Cristina... Machito... Damn... I just hope everything back home is okay.

Crystal: I hope so too... Here, honey. Let me treat that wound.

Infinite: Okay, Crystal.

Green electricity surrounded Crystal's Meta Runner arm, as she began to heal the wound on Infinite's shoulder.

Infinite: Ahh, that's better...

Crystal: It also looks like our abilities have changed due to these new bodies. 

Infinite: Yeah... I'm not even sure if I can transform into Super form or above.

Crystal: We may not need them here, anyway. I mean, Tas Corp is just a rich company. We can take them on without any transformation!

Infinite: You're right, Crystal! Tas Corp will get their asses kicked! Lux will regret messing with us!

Crystal: Damn right! Alright, I think I'm done here.

Infinite: Thanks, sweetheart.

The two shared a kiss and continued to watch the stars.

Infinite: You were so badass while shooting the laser gun, Crystal.
