Kaboooooooommnnnn! Kaboooommnnn!- Explosions are seen in the Air Base.

Captain Norton desperately gave orders to use the rocket launchers against the menacing Flight Cybot and Cybot Dark Angel, chaos ensued in the Ozone 01 Air Base. Explosions are everywhere through the base as the rocket launchers unleashed its firepower.

"Use the rocket launchers! Target the Cybots! I repeat, use the rocket launchers and target the Cybots!" Captain Norton ordered while in the Ozone 01 Air Base in Manila that is under attack by the Flight Cybot and Cybot Dark Angel.

"Yes sir!" the Ozone Cybots replied thru the radio and proceeds.

Kblaaaammmnnn!

Kabbblllaaammmmnnn!

Kblaaaammmnnn!

Kabbblllaaammmmnnn!

"Fire at will!" the weary captain exclaimed thru radio and looks like in panic. The captain yelled, his voice betraying a hint of panic as the relentless assault continued. The once secure Ozone 01 Air Base was now a battleground, and the monitor screens flashed warning signals, indicating the distressing loss of more Green Ox Robosuits.

____________________________

Tut tut tut tut!

The monitor screen of the Ozone 01 Air Base beeps, indicating that more Green Ox Robosuits are continuously losing its signal. The relentless onslaught of the Cybots left the air base in disarray, and Captain Norton, under immense pressure, struggled to contain the escalating threat. 

"Huh? This is impossible!" Captain Norton said in a worry while one by one the Green Ox Robosuit's signals lost in the battle field which indicates one thing, its destruction from the hands of the two attacking Cybots.

"Sir? The Green Ox Robosuits deployed in the northern gates of the airport grounds has lost its signal! Sir? Any orders sir?" the Ozone trooper said while in the control room.

"Damn! It was more than 100 Green Ox Robosuits later an hour and now it was gone!" Captain Norton stated.

The breaking news of the turmoil at Ozone 01 Air Base in Manila, featuring live coverage of the chaos led by Justify Sky, is live across the globe and even extends its reach to the outer space. Among the locations catching wind of this event is the distant Omicron 12 Space Country. The news had reached the office of Senator Fletcher Normandy, the highest authority of Omicron 12 Space Country.

"What are those Robosuits doing? They are attacking the air base? They don't know what are they doing!" Senator Fletcher Normandy, the representative of Omicron 12 Space Country.

"What are those Robosuits?"

"They aren't Robosuits! They are Cybots!"

"Are they terrorist?"

"Look! They are destroying the air port!"

"Who are those pilots? Are they rebels?"

Said the people from Omicron 12 Space Country who are watching the live news and looks like in their eyes, Cybots as well as its hidden pilots, Kyrie and Tracie are most likely the villains. Even though it was only a fake show planned by General Ace Highlander himself hiding the truth that there are no Ozone Leader's Assembly but instead, A gathering of leaders around the galaxy.

"That is absurd, these what they call Cybots will kill everyone who is around them," Senator Fletcher Normandy exclaimed, trying to make sense of the unfolding events. Little did they know that the entire event was a staged act orchestrated by General Ace Highlander.

The same scene of live feed is shown in Space Country Alpha 01 wherein people are keenly watching the live news.

"Oh no! What are those?" 

"Are those Robosuits?"

"They are destroying an Ozone air base!"

"Is that act of terrorism?"

"What a cruelty,"

These are the words from the citizens in Alpha 01 Space Country witnessing how the Flight Cybot and the Cybot Dark Angel mercilessly attacks the Ozone air base.

_______________________________

While there is a turmoil going on at Ozone Air Base 01, it is a solemn situation in the nearby funeral.

"Huh?" Sofia muttered, her attention captured by the thunderous explosions sounded near the funeral at St. Bernadette Memorial Church.

"(Kyrie)" she thinks of Kyrie, most likely she always thought of him and trouble brought by him with the Flight Cybot.

She instantly recognized the familiar sound—it was Kyrie. She felt a special connection to his Flight Cybot, almost like it was a part of her. Since the day Kyrie saved her from the dangerous Red Viper Robosuits at the St. Francis School Fair, Sofia and the Flight Cybot had grown inseparable. The sound of explosions around her only made her more eager, wondering what new challenge was ahead.

The live news also reaches Raven's Bar in Tagaytay wherein Katelyn awaits for the next scenario.

"Oh, that's crazy. Those pilots are against the powerful force in the galaxy, the Ozone Empire," said Katelyn while sitting at Raven's Bar & Cafe. She sees how the Flight Cybot and the Cybot Dark Angel battles the Green Ox Robosuits at the airbase. Little she didn't know that sooner, Raven might get involve too.

_________________________________________

Meanwhile, the office of the newly appointed president of Earth Federations-Lorna De Wynter is also witnessing the live footage of the turmoil in the air base.

"My goodness! Those Cybots might kill the Ozone Empire's delegates and may cause war between Earth Federation, Ozone Empire and Space Countries," exclaimed the newly appointed President Lorna De Wynter, her eyes fixed on the chaos through the live news feed. She already knew that the delegates of the convention were not leaders of Ozone Empire but leaders and staff of the 13 Space Countries.

"Ma'am, you have a call from a Space Country..." her secretary in the office informed her.

"It's Senator Fletcher Normandy of Omicron 12 Space Country. He's ordering us to have a defensive line of Earth Force at the Ozone 01 Air Base," her secretary said.

"(No way, if Earth Forces will go on that turmoil there will be a possibility that they may also get killed by the Cybots... or even an accident of killing the delegates. But as I see these Cybots, they are battling against the Ozone Force. So there's no need for the Earth Force the go there and run the show. There will be no way that the Earth Federations or the Earth Force will intervene in this assassination process of the delegates of Ozone council)" the newly appointed President of Earth Federations, Lorna De Wynter said to  herself, indicating his favor of the Cybots in attacking the Ozone troops in the Ozone 01 Air Base Manila. 

Vice President Lorna De Wynter said to herself, recognizing the urgency of the situation. As the weight of responsibility settled on her shoulders, she prepared to make crucial decisions that could determine the course of events between Earth and the Space Countries.

"Ma'am?" her secretary asks.

"Let me have the phone..." said Vice President Lorna De Wynter and looks like to reject the order of Senator Fletcher Normandy.

Kaboooooommnnnn!

Trakakbgoooooommnnn!

The large number of Green Ox Robosuits continue to pour rockets toward the two Cybots not far from them!

Craaasssssshhhhhh!

Shaaaaaaggraaaaaahhhhh!

Until the Flight Cybot finally crashes to the grounds due to lots of rockets that hit it.

Kaaaaabbbb----raaaaaaagggghhhh! The Flight Cybot totally crashes the ground.

"Arrrrrrrgghhhh!" Kyrie said while piloting the Flight Cybot that is smoking.

"Oh! Are you alright Kyrie?" Tracie said using the radio and with concern but she too in her Cybot Dark Angel is in big trouble due to the pouring rockets from the group of Green Ox Robosuits.

"Nevermind, keep them busy!" Kyrie replied thru the radio. In his face, it was seen hi having a hard time battling the foes. His Flight Cybot goes up again for another fight.

Kabooooommmnnn!

Kaboooooomnnnnnnnn!

Kblaaaammmnnnn!

Kbraaaaaaaammmnnnn! - the number of Rockets flew towards the Cybot Dark Angel and directly hit it!

"EEEEEEEEEEEEE! There are so many of them! I can't hold on anymore!" Tracie screams while in her Cybot Dark Angel that is continuously pounded by rockets of the barricading Green Ox Robosuits.

"I told you not go here," Kyrie answers using the radio. He is also in trouble having a hard time maneuvering the Flight Cybot against the machine guns of the Green Ox Robosuits.

"Once I get out from this position, I'll finish them!" Tracie replied thru radio.

"Forget them!" Kyrie answers and reminds Tracie his plan.

"What?" Tracie asks after maneuvering her Cybot Dark Angel away from the battle field.

"We have to destroy the space shuttle where the Ozone Empire leaders that will be loaded in!" Kyrie repeats his plan to Tracie which seems right and easy. 

"Huh? You're right! But when it will be Kyrie!" Tracie agrees in Kyrie's genuine plan.

"You just wait on what I'll do Tracie!" Kyrie replied thru radio.

____________________________

A series of blast and explosion occurs in the perilous Ozone Air Base.

Bratattatattatatat!

Bratatatatatatat!

Kaboooooooooommmnnnn!

Kaboooommmnnnn!

Atooooommnnn!

The barricade of Green Ox Robosuits continue to pour bullets from its raging machine guns and targets the Cybot Dark Angel.

"EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEeeeee! They are so many!" Tracie screams as she had a hard time protecting herself using the Cybot Dark Angel.

"Hmp! They are not stoppin! Just hold on Tracie!" Kyrie said thru the radio while getting the attention of the Green Ox Robosuits by moving away his Flight Cybot to attract the attention of the foes.

_______________________________

While there is an ongoing chaos caused by the Cybots at Ozone 01 Air Base in Manila, Major Lexus and his troops had already reached the remote mountain range at the edge of Philippine territory.

"Sir, may I remind you that this place is isolated from the Earth Federation, guerrillas guard this mountainous territory," Major Agatha cautioned, her eyes keenly surveying the perilous landscape. "There are small independent groups engaged in irregular fighting in this area. Are you sure, sir? Is this the route we need to take?" Major Agatha inquired once more.

"Yes, Major Agatha, no worries," Major Lexus reassured, his gaze fixed on the Cordillera mountain range from the confines of the space shuttle. The isolation and danger of the region didn't seem to faze him.

_________________________________

"Sir, we only have 50 Green Ox Robosuits and 50 Yellow Ligers Robosuits. Only total of 100 Robosuits in the deck. It isn't enough when we battle the Black Coalition at St. Paul City. Sir?" Major Agatha added.

"But don't forget also that we have the Robosuit Centurion on board,"

"Hmmmm.... so sir? Will we use it although its not yet passed its test drive?"

"Yes, I myself will be the tester,"

"Oh?! Roger that sir,"

_________________________

Tut Tut Tut!!!

Tut tut tut!!!

"Sir! We have confirmed enemy sightings at north east of us! They are Robosuits! Green Ox Robosuits and pre-registered. And they are re-colored it black,"

"Sir? Did they steal those Robosuits from our Ozone War Factories? and modify them?"

"I assume, since they are guerillas. So it means those are stolen Robosuits only from nearby Ozone war factory, I also presumed that they already demolished a number of Ozone facilities in this mountainous area of the Philippines, the Cordillera Mountains"

"Might be sir! They are guerilla warfare, small combatants and knows ambushes and sabotage... including raiding Ozone facilities"

________________________

"Okay let's go!" said Major Agatha that fixed herself in the cockpit of a Yellow Liger Robosuit.

"Yellow Liger suit is ready!"

"Prepare to launch the Robosuits!"

"Yes sir!"

______________________________________

"They are monsters!" said President Waylen Cambridge while watching the large monitor screen wherein the live coverage of the Ozone 01 Air Base is under attacked by Kyrie's Flight Cybot and Tracie's Cybot Death Angel.

"Those Cybots don't mind to take care of peace, all they know is to retaliate and fight without knowing that people around them will get killed,"

"And mostly innocents,"

"You are right,"

"They don't deserve a place in this world if that is their mind set..."

"Agree gentlemen, the Cybots are menace. They want to start a revolution that Ozone Empire is preventing," General Ace exclaims and with convincing voice.

"I see," President Waylen Cambridge replied.

"General Ace, do you have any interventions for this Cybot situation that we are experiencing and will experience in the future?" President Waylen Cambridge asks in the front of the delegates.

"Yes your highnesses. We are prepared on this kind of retaliation from the unregistered Cybots. We the Ozone Empire will stand and defend peace," a short reply from General Ace.

"Defend peace? Ha? By what? By fighting those Cybots thru guns against guns? The only way to prevent those Cybots is to talk to its pilot and not thru bombarding the whole area. Just like those Cybots are doing," Minister Hudson Ivanov replied. It is obvious that he always oppose the young general.

"You can't fight war against war," He added.

"But what is your plan, General Ace?" President Waylen continues.

Kabooooooooooooommnnnn!

Atoooooommmnnn!

A huge explosion occurred near the Manila Resort and Hotel! Probably the rockets misfired by the Green Ox Robosuits.

"Are we totally safe here General Ace?"

"W-what is that explosion?"

"Looks like the Cybots will kille us all here!"

The delegates from the Space Countries are in commotion.

"No worries, ladies and gentlemen, we have an incoming escape pod," General Ace stated and ease the worries of the delegates.

"Sir... the escape shuttle is ready," the Ozone troopers said while pointing the space shuttles that will be used as escape vehicle of the delegates.

"Ladies and gentlemen, we will now ride the escape shuttle and transfer in a safe venue. Kindly follow our troops," General Ace said. The delegates quickly exited the hall and follows the Ozone troops.

"Let's go ma'am and sir... follow me" said Lt. Phoebe Stratus.
