Metaverse of Mechas

📘 Chapter 81

🌌 Scene 1: Remnants of the Truth

Location: Memory Stream – Inside Zeron's mind

After Zarkel vanished, the synchronized Krono surge didn't just stop—it pulled Zeron into a flashback corridor made of fragmented light and shadow.

He floated through suspended memories:

A laboratory filled with screaming infants in Krono chambers.His mother, cloaked and injured, whispering to a scientist:

"Divide the twins. Hide them. The prophecy cannot fall into enemy hands."

Director Halberd receiving one child.A black-robed figure receiving the other—Zarkel.

Then—a final memory not his own:

Zarkel as a child, trained by Obsidian Crest operatives, beaten every time he asked about "the other one."

Zarkel (as a child): "Where's my brother?"

Unknown Voice: "Your brother? He was chosen. You were discarded. Now we make you into a weapon."

Zeron gasps as he's thrown back to reality.

🏙️ Scene 2: Guild Conspiracy

Location: Guild Tower – Council Room

Zeron, Serin, and a disguised Kero sneak into the tower during a security sweep. Inside the high council chamber, they intercept a secret meeting.

Halberd: "The boy's Krono is awakening. If Zarkel's back, we have little time."

Councilor Daren: "And the girl? Her signal triggered something across the Andromeda Rift."

Halberd presses a remote—holographic maps light up showing alien fleets shifting course toward Terra-Solis.

Halberd: "We purge them now. All three siblings. Before the prophecy activates."

Zeron grips his fists, voice shaking.

Zeron (stepping out): "You want a purge? Let's start with you."

Chaos erupts. Guild guards surround him, but Serin overloads the council chamber's security grid.

Kero releases a microbot swarm, blinding the sensors.

Zeron to Halberd: "I'm done being your pawn. I'm rewriting this world."

🤝 Scene 3: The Resistance Forms

Location: Underground Haven – Engineering Core

Zake and Zui watch the nearly complete prototype of Zethron Prime—the one mecha that can merge with Krono-born users.

AURA speaks gravely:

"Warning. The emergence of Divine-class Krono has awakened a Stellar Warden."

Kero gulps.

"A what-now?"

AURA: "An ancient bio-mecha designed by the Zethronians to counter gods."

The facility goes dark.

A projection appears—massive, serpentine, with ten arms and glowing runes.

Zake (whispers): "It's watching us."

🛡️ Scene 4: The Brotherhood Clash

Location: Titan Vale – An ancient battleground

Zarkel waits for Zeron at the ruins of the Vale, the place where Krono first emerged on Terra-Solis.

Zarkel: "We were created for war. I was shaped in hate. You were nurtured in hope."

Zeron stares at him, sadness in his voice.

"We don't have to fight, Zarkel."

Zarkel removes his helmet.

"Yes, we do. Because I need to know… if I was truly the mistake."

They clash.

Their mechas emerge—Zarkel's Eidolon Edge, jagged and spectral.

Zeron's is half-formed, unstable—but burning with rising purple Krono.

Each punch shakes the heavens.

Each strike causes storms.

🧬 Scene 5: Divine Trigger

Zui's awakening sends out another surge. But this time—it's not just energy.

It's a message. An encrypted, ancient code hidden in her DNA.

AURA deciphers it.

"Message: To the Children of Zethron. You are not born. You are forged. The battle is not for Krono. It is for memory."

Zui collapses.

Zake screams her name as glowing circuits pulse through her veins.
