~~Neo Arcana Volume: The Essences Reunited~~
Enix spent most of his time there and decided to spend the night by his mother's grave ((Creepy, I know)). Levi still stood by the window waiting for the return of her companion, before she felt a hand on her shoulder. She turned "Enix?" she asked, but it was only Telos. "He'll be back," he said in a calm manner. "You should go to sleep."
Reluctantly she nodded her head and went back to her room. Telos took one look out the window, then shook his head and walked back to his room.

In the outskirts of the outlands a single figure stood above a group of Mavericks. His face was wrapped by a dark cloak as was the rest of his body. His sinister voice echoed from it's darkness. "At last," It began. "The heroes of old are now forever dormant, no longer a permanent threat. Now the only thing that stands in my way are the pitiful human defense forces, with their pitiful weapons."
"But my lord, what about the rumors." said a female Maverick. She was a biped, fire type, reploid. Created in the form of a Lioness, with long slashing claws.
"Rumors?" hissed the devious being.
"Yesss my lord." responded the male Maverick. A green, biped, mantis-like reploid. Instead of hands, or claws it had scythes on each arms. "There are rumorsss that the essencesss of the heroesss of old have taken new hosssts, the bodiesss of sssix individualsss."
The being was silent then replied but was interrupted. "Impossible! The Biometals holding them were destroyed! They couldn't have escaped from those prisons!" Retorted a male bearlike reploid, equipped with slashing claws and a shoulder cannon.
Suddenly he was grabbed by the throat. "Moonclaw Grizzly..." said the being. "Do not interrupt me again...otherwise...you will die."
Grizzly's face shrunkened in fear, the exact expression that made the being smile.
"Yes, unfortunate, isn't it? Now about the rumors, it is possible for them to find new hosts, although the possibilities are slim. Still, It is not a chance that I will take. I have been thwarted many times by them and I will not be ruined again! Deathscythe Mantisk! Assemble your troops, another assault on Neo Arcana will be held in another week. Blaze Liones! Contact Nightshade and Hakushaku. Tell them to keep a look out for these six...then I will deal with them myself."
The Lioness and Mantisk nodded their heads and teleported away as did Moonclaw Grizzly.

High Above the finished meetings was a green ball of Light, a cyberelf. This is not good... It thought to itself. Master X must know about this! In cyberspace, the cyberelves of X, Harpuia, Zero, Leviathan, Fefnir, and Phantom awaited the arrival of Harpuia, who had, of coursed just arrived. "Greetings, Master X, everyone."
X nodded his head to acknowledge his arrival. "What news from the outlands?" he asked.
"Very bad news. There is a new threat targeting Neo Arcana, and the lives of our six hosts."
All 5 were in shock. "We have to do something!" yelled Fefnir. "We can't just lay around in our hosts and let them and the humans we were sworn to protect get killed!"
"They attack in one week and have sent sentries to keep a look out for possible hosts.", said Harpuia.
"Master X," said Leviathan. "We can't just let them get slaughtered, plus my host...she's too young to die."
"All of our hosts are too young to die.", X replied. "I, myself, have grown fond of my host."
"All of us have." said Zero. "Besides, I want to see my host's hairstyle live on."
"You and your hairstyle..." said X. "Has anyone told you you look like a girl like that?"
"They were probably to afraid I'd kill them...not that I would.", he replied.
"You've obviously influenced your host."
"Master X," started Phantom. "With all due respect, we have more pressing matters to attend to."
"Yes, yes." he started. "There is no doubt. We have to protect this new sanctuary from this threat. We will have to make ourselves noticed to our hosts and train them with our powers within the week we have, without supervision from others."
"Finally! some action!", sighed Fefnir.
"Master X...", started Leviathan. "If I may ask...you know our hosts have some feelings for each other...do you think It'd be awkward?"
Everyone looked at Leviathan and X. Zero was stifling laughter.
"I guess..." started X. "But remember. It is our hosts' choice, not our's"
"Right."
"good tomorrow we make ourselves known."
They all left. Zero went to Kai, X to Enix, Leviathan to Levi, Fefnir to Telos, harpuia to Leon, and Phantom to Toshio.
