Episode 15 — Terraka

Agira didn’t answer immediately.

The prophecy sat heavily in his chest.

Not because he believed it completely—

but because part of him feared Kaito did.

---

Responsibility was one thing.

Expectation was another.

And Agira still struggled to control the power inside him consistently.

---

Before he could respond, alarms echoed faintly across Delpolis.

Distant.

But growing.

---

Elsewhere, deep beneath the city, Dr. Elliot Thompson watched holographic monitors flicker around him.

For years, he had worked inside H-Corp as one of its leading researchers.

Until ambition consumed him.

---

Now the underground networks knew him by a different name.

VILLAIN.

Vicious

Inovator

Launching

Lethal

Assaults

Involving

New

Nations

---

Dr. Thompson wasn’t insane.

That was what made him dangerous.

Everything he did followed logic.

Purpose.

Design.

---

And his greatest creation stood behind him in silence.

Terraka.

---

The machine towered over the chamber, its armor glowing faintly red beneath layers of reinforced steel.

Heat pulsed through its joints like artificial blood.

Its single crimson sensor scanned the room mechanically before locking forward once more.

Waiting.

---

“Humanity fears disorder,” Thompson murmured calmly.

“So I’ll give them control.”

---

His fingers moved across the console.

Terraka activated fully.

The ground beneath the lab trembled.

---

Hours later, reports spread across Delpolis.

Factories burning.

Ground tremors.

Entire industrial sectors collapsing under waves of unnatural heat.

And at every destroyed site—

the same symbol remained burned into the ground.

Thompson’s mark.

---

The message was obvious.

This wasn’t random destruction.

It was a challenge.

---

Maya reached the sanctuary shortly before sunset.

Breathing heavily.

“You need to see this.”

---

She projected stolen security footage into the air between them.

A massive figure walked through flames as explosions tore through abandoned industrial zones.

Metal.

Fire.

Destruction.

---

Terraka.

---

Kaito studied the footage silently.

Then looked toward Agira.

---

“It’s calling for you.”

---

Agira stared at the burning image of the machine.

His instincts already understood something his mind hadn’t fully accepted yet.

This wouldn’t be another training session.

---

This would be war.
