At the wreck of the destroyed W.R.E.X Base, Tarmac is floating on a piece of debris, before flagging down incoming helicopters. On the shores of New York, Neon Crane swims up to shore, dragging an unconscious and wounded Maria.

Neon Crane: I'm sorry, Maria.....

Neon Crane uses her light speed to transport Maria to the hospital, before shooting a neon beam into the sky, signaling the doctors. Neon Crane quickly light speeds onto the roof of another building, watching as doctors run out and treat Maria.

Doctor: Doctor, we have a wounded here! She's got a low heart rate!

Neon Crane turns, before suddenly falling to her knees, crying to herself at the loss of Shane. However, her sadness suddenly turns into anger, before her eyes turn neon pink.

Neon Crane: Kala.....you're going to pay for this!

On the beach, Power Surge crawls to shore and recovers, noticing the mask of Neon Crane laying in the sand, before he walks over to pick it up.

Power Surge:....oh, god....(talks in earpiece) Trisha! Neon Crane! Listen to me! If you're listening, do not go after Kala! This wasn't her fault! Trisha! Damn it!

On another building, Kala is talking on the phone with one of the W.R.E.X Soldiers.

W.R.E.X Soldier: What makes you think an Enhuman freak like you was going to leave this city alive?

Kala: we had a deal!

W.R.E.X Soldier: Wrong! You had a deal with General Tarmac, who's probably dead, but the people who are here are enlisted in hunting you Enhuman scum down, not help them bug out after screwing over their own people.

Kala: I did what you asked! You keep your end of the bargain!

W.R.E.X Soldier: My bargain? My bargain? I've already lost eight of my good friends to you Enhuman freaks! I made a promise to their families that I would hunt down and kill every one of you monsters. That's my end of the bargain.

Kala: When Tarmac finds out you went back on our deal-

W.R.E.X Soldier: Mr. Tarmac made a deal with you, because you were easy...and you're trash, but that's all going to change....it's time for the tyranny of Enhumanity to-(grunts)

Kala: Hello?! Hello?!

On a rooftop, Neon Crane is interrogating the W.R.E.X Soldier, causing is trapped to the floor in neon beams.

Neon Crane: I'm going to ask you this once so think of your answer clearly....I know Kala Donavan made a deal with Tarmac....(produces neon blade) Where is she?

Power Surge is running through the beach, until he notices a neon silhouette racing across buildings, forcing him to bolt speed. Kala is waiting at the airport, before she hears the noise of a beam. Kala energizes her hands with neon energy. After a few tense moments of looking around, Neon Crane light speeds at Kala and punches her down, before approaching her.

Neon Crane: You bitch....he killed my father!

Kala: I didn't know...I swear to God...

Neon Crane: Bullshit!

Neon Crane grabs Kala and presses against the wall.

Neon Crane: You set us up!

Kala: He said he wasn't going to hurt you...he just wanted to talk... all!

Neon Crane: And like an idiot, you believed him?!

Kala: He's a crazy man, willing to hurt anybody...human or Enhuman...to make sure he gets his war.

Neon Crane: My sister is hurt and my dad would still be alive if it wasn't for you....why?! Why did you do it?!

Kala: He-he had my daughter...

Kala blasts Neon Crane off her, before falling to her knees. Neon Crane generates a neon rope and wraps it around Kala's neck, before slamming her down. Neon Crane grabs Kala by the throat and projects a neon blade.

Neon Crane: an eye for an eye, bitch.

Neon Crane prepares to kill Kala until Power Surge arrives on the scene.

Power Surge: Trisha! Wait! This is not on her!

Neon Crane: No! My Dad is dead and my sister is hurt because of her!

Power Surge: She's telling the truth! Paxton told me before he died...she only did it because Tarmac had her daughter.....you're angry...you're mourning....I've been through this...with my family....I know it hurts...

Neon Crane: You have no idea how it feels!

Power Surge: I've lost people too...friends...family....we don't kill...that's the code of the Supers....the reason that being is so that humanity doesn't see us as the monsters that humans like Tarmac makes us to be...if you do this, if you kill her, that will prove Tarmac right about us!....you are better than this, Trisha....that's why Mr. Parker brought you to us...this isn't what your father would want...please...

A short pause.

Neon Crane: If you think this is the wrong choice, then why haven't you stopped me yet?

Power Surge: Because I know you'll make the right choice.

Neon Crane appears conflicted, but still angry at Kala. It appears she will kill Kala until Sam, Kala's daughter, calls out to her, before appearing.

Sam: Mom!

Kala: No! No! Stay back!

Sam: Mom! (to Neon Crane) Let her go!

Neon Crane gives a conflicted look.

Kala: You going to kill me.....in front of my daughter?

A tense pause.

Neon Crane: (yells)

Power Surge: Trisha!

Neon Crane apparently stabs Kala with her blade, but after a few tense moments, it is revealed Neon Crane stabbed the wall behind Kala instead. Neon Crane releases Kala and steps back.

Neon Crane: I'm not a killer....

Kala, relieved, looks at Sam, who runs to Kala and hugs her. Power Surge walks up to Neon Crane and hugs her as she cries.

Power Surge: It's okay....it's okay..

Neon Crane: (crying) Thank you....

Power Surge gives Neon Crane her mask.

Kala: Kid...why don't you come with us? You could start over...build a new life...

A few moments.

Neon Crane: No....this is my life now.

Kala: Trisha, you can't fight Tarmac.....you can't fight the humans...

Neon Crane: You're right...I can't fight them....but maybe I can convince them we're not all monsters..(looks at Power Surge)...that we're all different from what they think of us..(to Kala) Take care of yourself, Kala.

Neon Crane puts her mask back on before she and Power Surge use their speed powers to flee as Kala nods.

Kala: Good luck, kid.....(to Sam) C'mon, Sam....let's go home.

In the Meteor of Babylon, Genesis approaches Scarlett, Axel, Snake-Bite and Mammoth.

Axel: Looks like you really scared the humans, master. What's our next move?

Snake-Bite: I say we kill the humans and the Supers.

Scarlett: No....weak Enhumans like the Supers need to witness our rising over the humans...should watch as we are prepared to take over.

Genesis: We will prepare for another attack soon. The humans will know just how powerful we are.

At the Academy, Trisha is in the Grid, practicing her powers and destroying the androids as John, James and Eva are watching her.

John: How long has she been in there?

James: Five hours....hasn't taken a break yet...she's needs time.....heard a lot of humans and Enhumans were hurt.

Eva: Everything happened so fast...

Josh: It did....her Dad.....Kala...

John: Speaking of Kala, you let her go without even taking her in.

Josh: She had a kid, Mr. Parker.....Tarmac used her to get to Trisha.

Eva: Should we be worried about Kala?

James: No....Genesis....Tarmac...the Catalysts...they're the real problem....

Eva sighs, before she walks into the grid and up to Trisha.

Eva: Josh said you've been in here for a while.

Trisha: Yeah....I have...

Eva: Trisha....honey, I'm sorry about your father....but about Kala....you did the right thing....letting her live.

Trisha: Hey, that's part of being on the team, right? We don't kill.....I saved my sister.....that counts for something.

Eva: Then you still have a reason to do the right thing.....even when you can't own up to it...you do have that power, Trisha.....

Trisha: Why me? Why was it me that had gotten those powers?

Eva: Because...you are unique...as are all Enhumans.

Trisha gives a look, before she warmly smiles. In the S room, James and Charles are attempting to track down the signal of the Xenon with John and Eva present.

Charles: Any luck?

James: Askin the wrong person, man....V.O.X?

V.O.X: unable to track down the location of the signal...

John: keep trying, V.O.X...

Eva: Dad, I'm going to go for a walk.

Eva walks around the hall of the high-tech attic, before suddenly walking towards the Chronicle. Eva enters the Chronicle, before she connects herself to the machine. In the S room, V.O.X detects Eva attempting to use to the Chronicle.

V.O.X: Sir, detecting unauthorized access to the Chronicle machine.

John: Who?

V.O.X: Mrs. Parker, sir.

John, James, and Charles immediately sprint towards the Chronicle as James calls out.

James: Eva!

John: Eva! No!

Eva uses a giant sun shield to block John, James and Charles from entering.

John: No! Eva! It's too dangerous! It could kill you!

James: Damn it! Eva!

John: Our powers all together can break this shield! Now!

John, James and Charles use their powers to attempt to break the sun shield as Eva grunts and screams in pain. Breaking the connection, Eva falls to her knees with her nose bleeding, before John, James and Charles break the sun shield and tend to Eva.

Charles: Eva! Jesus!

John: Eva...Eva...honey...say something...please...Eva!

Eva: (weakly) I know where the Meteor of Babylon is...

Shortly after this, John calls the team for a meeting.

John: Team! Meet me in the S room on the double!

In the S room, the Supers attend a meeting.

Quantum: All right, guys...our time is up....we have to make our move now, before things get much worse...Thanks to Eva, we've managed to locate where the Meteor of Babylon is....we have to strike now...James, what's the status of the Eagle?

Dragonfly: with Charles' and Josh's help, I've fully integrated the technology from the Catalysts wreckage into the Eagle...we should be able to get reach the Zion....

The Owl: Getting inside's going to be a problem though...

Power Surge: He's right. We won't get in there without a fight.

Quantum: We'll burn that bridge once we get there....our number one priority is to reach the Meteor of Babylon, and capture Genesis.

Power Surge: Damn, James...you make it sound like a cake walk.

Quantum: we all know it's going to be far from a cake walk, Josh....it has to be done...it's not just Enhumans that are depending on us...but humanity....the whole world is depending on us. Any questions? All right then, team...move out...Trisha...you stay for a moment...

As the rest of the team heads for the Eagle Bay, Neon Crane walks up to Quantum.

Quantum: I know you're in pain, but I need you to gather up your strength.

Neon Crane: I will...I won't let you down....I won't let my parents down.....I'm going to do this for them...and for you...for the team...for a better dream for everyone...

Quantum: You've come a long way, kid....so with that saying; I trust you.... with my life.....and I trust you will help us succeed....in our missions...in unity...that's what this symbol is....a sign on unity....your power, neon, defines that you are bright...and you are the light....of this team.

Neon Crane nods, before her and Quantum head into the Eagle. With The Owl piloting and Dragonfly flying behind, the Eagle soars into the void of space, heading for the meteor of Babylon.
