A dark being crawled into an escape pod. The Dark being held a case shaped like an egg. They rocked it slowly before closing the escape pod. "Don't worry, it'll be ok." They said, pressing some buttons. They looked at the screen, which was covered in error signs. "Computer, send me to B-S4, immediately." They said. "Hello Alex, Transporting to B-S4." Alex laid on the seat, rocking the case slowly as the escape pod dives into space, vanishing.

Max: C'mon, Zip Zip!

Max said as she ran past 8-Bit, shooting him. They had been training for a while to help 8-Bit get an advantage without his star powers, and so far, 8-bit wasn't liking it.

8-Bit: C'mon Max, we're literally just starting and you decide to treat me like I'm one of your villains
Max: It's called a test. And you were a villain.
8-Bit: Yeah, when Virus was in me.

8-Bit shot back at Max, with her easily dodging the bullets. Max begins to run towards 8-Bit, but then 8-Bit throws this damage booster behind Max, and began to shoot again. Max, slid to the side and shot at 8-Bit again. 8-Bit barely managed to dodge the last bullet, but all the others hit.

Max: Hah! You can't trick me again!
8-Bit: I doubt you'll realize that I'll-
Shelly: Guys!

The two brawlers looked at Shelly. The starter brawler looked at them in frustration.

Shelly: I've been looking for you two! Haven't you heard that we're having a meeting?!
8-Bit: uh-

8-Bit's screen defaults to an error screen as Max shakes her head. She had completely forgotten about the meeting. Surge had told her last night, but she was on an energy crash, focused on getting more energy drinks.

Max: Right, sorry. We'll be there!

Max grabbed 8-Bit by the arm and rushed over to the town square.

8-Bit: AHHH!

As 8-Bit felt the pain of the bumps during the trip, Max was just fine as they reached the town center.

Max: We made it! You ok 8-bit?
8-bit: huff, NEVER AGAIN!
Max: suit yourself.

Max helped 8-bit up before reuniting with Surge nearby. Currently at Upgrade 1, Surge look at Max, smiling. Max judged by his worn out appearance that he must've been doing some bounty.

Max: Hey surge. Still doing bounty?
Surge: Yeah, I should've done heist.
Max: Heh, yeah.

Max looked to the town hall, where Colt was standing. Shelly soon came up the stage and looked at everyone, making sure that everyone's there.

"Alright everyone. I know 2020 has been a rough year, but with everything we've been doing, we cannot stop now. I believe we can make the best of this year, and with some strengths and...some weaknesses, we will still survive. So let's make the best of this year-"

BOOM!

As if Shelly jinxed it, something crash landed into Pam's Scrapyard. The Crowd stared at her junkyard, as they began to check it out.

Max: What is that?!
Surge: We better find out.

'I swear, if it's another villain, I'm gonna destroy them' Max thought as she ran to the scrapyard. Being the fastest out of the brawlers, naturally she was the first one to the location. The spaceship was small enough to fit two people at the most, but it seemed busted up. The other brawlers began to reach the destination, as Surge looked at Max

Surge: What the...
Max: It looks like a...spaceship...what happened to it?
Surge: Don't look at me, I just got here!

Suddenly, an arm breaks through the glass on the cockpit. Max and Surge jump back, along with the other brawlers that followed. The creature then bashed themselves out of the cockpit, and fell on the ground, exhausted.

Bea: What is that?
Colette: Who cares! I'm putting it in my scrapbook!
Edgar: Colette, NO!

As Edgar holds the insane cashier back, Bea and Rosa approach the creature. "Bea," Rosa said, "Take the creature in the lab. I'm gonna check if there's anyone else in there." Bea nodded, "Yes Rosa." As Bea picked up the creature, Rosa opened what's left of the cockpit to see an odd case. She noticed a latch on the case, so she opened it to be greater by another creature, except more mechanical than the last one.

Rosa: Woah...is it ok?

Rosa poked the creature. It seemed to be passed out, like the other one. She sighed and looked at El Primo.

El Primo: Need a hand, amigo?
Rosa: Sì, gracias.

As El Primo and Rosa carry the mechanic creature away, Max looks at the creatures being taken into Rosa's lab. She wonders about the creatures, and why they are here as she and Surge follow along.

Max: Well, hopefully they're nice.
Surge: I doubt it.

Alright, this is Chapter 1!

...Stay tuned.
