Zero sighed and watched on this little rampage. With each experiment of Cael's that Shadow ripped into..Zero became a little bit more depressed of this new form Shadow had become.
"So your mind is so ridiculously consumed by this puppet..that you can't even remember your friends?" Zero asked and slowly stepped infront of Shadow. As Shadows attack went for there brothers..Zero lifted his hands in a triangle like motions.
"Abyss..would be ashamed of you." Zero said softly and then a huge blue ray of matter met this attack. Not aimed to stop it but to push it off course. This worked by a mere few feet. Missing Vincent and Cross but sending it straight into the governors quarters.
Zero watched as the attack hit. Watching the result. The attack had single handedly ripped apart the quarters. Zero's eyes didn't move for several seconds before he turned his head to Shadow once more.
"I had a love myself you know. Vincent had Caroline...sure I don't have the sad mopey tale he does..nor do I compete with Cross and his lover. But you..you have no right to act like you suffered the worst out of all this. Much less put shame to both our creator and to Abyss!" he said softly and put a hand over his face.
"My love wasn't for a woman but for a group of kids I had found." Zero said and looked up at Shadow with a chuckle.
"Most of them are dead now..and I'll be damned if the rest die today." Zero said and slowly walked toward Shadow again.
"So who is dominate in there Eclipse? Or Shadow?" Zero asked.
The sirens of the governments underground experiment facility began to rang. Standing over one of the pods..Jayce let out a sigh. The battle outside had caused Cael to push Jayce to finish the governments work in town. He was looking down at something that even he hadn't believed possible.
"Is he finally movable?" Jayce asked as one of the doctors walked by.
"His stable..but if you let him out we don't know what will happen." She replied.
"Good." Jayce said and slowly pulled the lid of the pod open. Liquid began to fdrip onto the floor as slowly hands grabbed the side of the pod.
"Its to see you again old friend." Jayce said with a grin spread across his face. The doctor came closer to look and slowly matter rose from the pod. Several tails rose up. Going straight through the doctor like a knife through butter.
"Well..its good to see your stronger to." Jayce said as the tails came out one by one. The body dropped onto the floor. Jayce slowly turned and began to walk out the door.
"Doctors..shut everything down. Now." Jayce said smiling. The doctors all began to protest.
"BUT THE REMAINING EXPERIMENTS! They still need oxygen!" one cried out.
"We can't go against Cael's orders?" another yelled.
Jayce shook his head and began to walk out the door.
"Tell the reboot that one then doc. The new and improved version is not to be called by its old name or it may also reboot his memory." Jayce said and looked around.
"He is to be called Project Hades. Do you understand?" Jayce asked softly. One of the doctors gulped looking over towards the pod. What was so strong about this experiment that it was so prioritized by one of the Dark Matter projects?
" We will shut everything down as you wish..sir." The doctor replied and turned his head to watch Jayce walk out the door.
Slowly as the matter recoiled...more matter began to expand across the sides of the pod. As this did so they turned into snakes they slithered across the floor. As one doctor accidentally stepped on one..the snake rebounded from the floor and went upward. Cutting the doctor in half before becoming liquid on the floor.
Jayce listened to the screams inside as he slowly got into his jet. Putting on his helmet he shook his head.
"He is at least six times stronger then he was in his previous state." Jayce said as he had a phone next to his ear.
"There is no longer any conscious within his data base. It was completely erased. That is why he longer will be called by the name you knew him by." Jayce said in reply to mutterings on the other end.
"Now if thats all you need of me.."Jayce said and then he saw it in his cockpit..a red light in the fuel reader.
"I no longer need your services." rang Cael's voice in Jayce's ears..then a explosion took over the roof top of the facility. Smoke pouring into the sky. A song picking up on the radio as a form slowly walked out of the facility. Blood dripping from the matter that slithered around him as he stepped into the light that was the storms lightning.

There blades connecting caused the matter below them to shake. As they disconnected again so did the top of the hexus. The two starred at each other for a very long time as the matter dripped down to the others below.
"You feel it don't you?" Cross asked looking up at Vincent.
"Cael ******** with things that the human mind can't comprehend." Vincent admitted and looked at Cross with a chuckle.
"I know what you feel and I know you and I both know who it is." Vincent said and looked over toward the smoke.
"But it no longer matters where we look Cross. Our fates are here and now. We've both showed our hands..now its time to just look at the cards and cash in." Vincent said looking back over at his brother. Then matter rose between the two as they clashed again.
"Can Zero hold back Shadow in his current state?" Cross asked as the two kicked each other away.
"Zero is stronger then you give him credit for." Vincent chuckled slowly pushing his blade into the floor.
"Shall we continue?" he asked. Cross sighed and the two jumped again. There blades clashing and in moments of pure speed the two continued to connect. Neither getting the better of the other in there constant battle of there power and there blades.
