Twenty five years ago, a meteorite hit the surface of earth. It caused mass extinction of each and every species on earth. From the space rock escaped the radiations and chemicals, which caused some of the living beings to mutate, and gave them uncanny abilities. And thus began the new age of humanity, the Mutant Age!
____________________________________________
The members took the squad to their base, where they agreed to talk peacefully.
"(Gigi) The first appearance of the red light is what is leading to the deaths of people. Another red light appeared a few days ago, and one more dead body was found two days later. Now, you have this one more girl with you. Can you explain?"
"(Todo) I still don't understand how my summoning is leading to the deaths of the people I don't even know. Heck, even my summons don't remember anything before being born."
"(Smith) We understand. But still, can't help it. You guys are the biggest suspects."
"(Cross) However, we have a chance. We can still solve this case."
"(Todo) But how?"
"(Mikasa) We need your help." "(Mikasa) You see, the body which was found right after the first red light was of a man named Mark Luther. But the real reason we are really interested him specially is that Mark is not of this timeline, that is, he was a man who lived more than 26 years ago. But his body was still half rotten."
"(Vanda) But where was he found?"
"(Gigi) He was found in an open ground. There were also footsteps discovered of someone, but we couldn't figure out of whom."
"(Todo) Open field... Half rotten.... I think I have met him before..... Yes! I know! He was the dead man I met before I found the scroll with which I summon my squad."
Everyone in the room stood up. Todo shook.
"(Gigi) WHAT? YOU PICKED UP A THING WHICH WAS KEPT BESIDES A CORPSE?!"
"(Todo) Uhh yeah. But I didn't wanted to... That piece of paper attracted me in an weird way. I couldn't help but pick it."
"(Cross) What was written on the paper?!"
"(Todo) There was a map.. Of a labyrinth."
"(Gigi) Okay then, foundation, get ready.... We are gonna investigate the labyrinth." The members of the foundation and the squad arrive at the labyrinth. They open the gate and enter it. Todo guides them to the the place where he found the scroll. While walking, the room the statue, or the concrete doll came. The doll was in the same position when it was about to snap the neck to Todo.
"(Smith) What's this thing?"
"(Todo) It's a weird statue which moves and tries to kill you if you don't look at i-"
*BOOOOM!"
Chae used her psychic powers to just kill the doll.
"(Todo) Oh.... Well....." They then enter the room where Todo found the scroll. The room was the same, decorated with human parts. While walking in the room, Mikasa noticed something.
"(Mikasa) Hmmm? The room..... No... Under the room, it's hollow!"
"(Gigi) Hollow? What do you mean?"
"(Mikasa) Mapping allows me to sense the room a little when I enter it. And when I entered this room, I realised that the room doesn't have anything under it's floor. Or I fear that there is 'something' under this."
"(Todo) Wait... I know. There is a bunker gate here. It was locked when I first came here, and I didn't paid much attention to it. But now you mentioned the hollowness, I guess the gate has something to do with it.
They walked to the gate and broke the lock. After opening the gate, what was seen was unimaginable.
A world, which is under ours, where the surrounding is mostly green and the wind is hot. Roars of various creatures could be heard from there.
"(Vanda) Geez. Our mother scroll was hidden at quite a place."
"(Chae) So... We are going in."
"(Gigi) We are going in."
"(Chae) Neat." They entered inside and heard the sound of the creatures increasing.
*THAKKKKKK!*
The door closed behind them. The way out was locked, so they now have to search for another gate.
"(Aura) It's scary here."
"(Vanda) Yup it is. But we have no other choice."
"(Gigi) Start the march, members. The place looks big. The search won't be easy."
"(Members) Yes ma'am!"
The members started walking. The squad just watched.
(Nat) They sure are loyal to her, huh?"
"(Todo) Better stay together, girls. We should walk with them too." They walked and walked. There was not even a sight of exit. Just green things everywhere.
After walking for a while, they saw something at a far distance. Before it could be clearly seen, a monster appeared before them. *RWAAAARGGGGG!!!!*
The big monster attacked. Members and squad both were able to successfully dodge the attack.
"(Smith) Yo I got that."
Smith jumped to attack the monster.
*ZOOOOOOOOOMMM!!*
*BLAAAST!!*
And explosions all around. The smoke caused obstruction and the heroes lost the path to the gate.
After the smoke was gone, the monster was gone too. It was not dead, no. It just vanished in thin air.
Some more search here and there, and the monster re-appeared. And surprise, the monster now had two heads.
"(Gigi) The gate is visible again!"
"(Todo) But these shithead... What 'bout it?"
"(Vanda) I'll handle it!"
"(Chae) One will not be enough, I'll assist her. You guys check out if it leads to somewhere else."
The monster was now ready to attack. And so we're Vanda and Chae. *BOOOOM!!*
*SLASHHHH!!*
*ZOOOOOMM!!*
The fight went on as the other heroes ran towards the gate. They arrived and Todo opened the gate. It was leading to another place, deep down. So deep that it was not visible due to the darkness.
Meanwhile.
"(Vanda) Chae, dodge!"
"(Chae) You don't need to tell me what to do and what not, witch!"
"(Vanda) I am trying to help you, and you are talking trash to me?"
"(Chae) Oh yeah, I don't need your help, witch. I can fight this monster by myself."
"(Vanda) Big talks. Just look at that two headed *the monster multiplies it's head* yeah three headed beast! It can tear you apart, you fragile little cat!"
"(Chae) Whaaaat?"
And the argument kept going on. None of them attacked the monster, they were just dodging and shouting at each other.
Meanwhile the ones at the gate were wondering if they should jump inside.
"(Cross) So... What should we do?"
"(Nat) I say jump."
"(Smith) Jump."
"(Aura) Down there."
"(Todo) I'mma do a flip. But before, those two... They are fighting each other rather than that thing."
"(Gigi) I'll talk to them, wait." Gigi used her portals to reach Vanda and Chae, grabbed them both and took them to the place where everyone was.
"(Gigi) You two! Can you stop being enemies for a damn minute and fight that monster?!"
Vanda and Chae both attacked it simultaneously. A big explosion occured and the monster was dead. Everyone looked at it with surprise.
"(Mikasa) If you could have done it beforehand, why didn't you?"
Both if them pointed towards each other.
"(Mikasa) Uhhh fine!"
Now it was time to enter the gate. Before entering, Todo had a thought.
"(Todo) Gigi, you could just use your portals to help us escape, right?"
"(Gigi) You thought I didn't tried? I did, and it was not working. This place is weird...."
So, finally it was time to jump into the abyss. Everyone braces themselves, and dived into it.
