The year is 8145. Future Earth has completely rebuilt after the destruction as a result of the previous years' Zombie Wars. But now there is a new threat: Ghost and Scarlet have become too powerful for their own good and are secretly planning to unleash a fate worse than total destruction on this world. It is not known what this is, but all we know thanks to the master of darkness himself, Kodai Sodrall, is that this will happen. Join Jake Reeves, Jude Lumsden, Mirah Lumsden and Nakomis Tulios Kordalis as well as a whole host of others on a massive quest to avert this disaster before it occurs.... if possible.

Lycans: Genetically engineered in Area 51 thousands of years ago, Lycans usually stand at around 7'0" to 8'5" in height and weigh around 240 lbs, but there have been reports of ones shorter and taller than these limits. They usually live for 200 years, though Jake, Sly, Mirah and Jude are exceptions to this as they are vampires.

Tygers: Tygers came about the same way as Lycans, through the mixing of human and tiger DNA thousands of years ago. It is unknown how long a Tyger can live, though the oldest on record, Strype, is a member of the Light Crusaders and is currently over 1500 years old. Usually stand around the same height range as Lycans, but weigh a bit less at around 225 lbs.

Fallen Angels: Fallen Angels are a collection of one or more powerful spirits in a dead body that are strong enough to resurrect the body they possess.

"... So you're saying my brother betrayed us? I was expecting that." Jake said, unsurprised about the news, "He's always been an evil son of a *****."
"You're not surprised at all?! Especially after the massive mistake that was what the robot did?! He freaking helped us stop that!" Kodai replied.
"Actually, that doesn't surprise me either." Jude butted in, "He HATES Me, Mirah and Jake. You too, I think."
Jude was one of the world's best Psionics, as he was the proud owner of an impenetrable mind. One of the four vampires, as well, and the fastest of them all. Kodai, the only remaining true ninja before the events of the Great Zombie Wars one year previously, had turned Saki back to the path of light, and now both of them are on Jake's side.
Nakomis walked in after overhearing this rather loud conversation. "You three are talking about --" She started before being interrupted by an extremely calm Jake: "Ghost and Scarlet apparently want to kill us all..." He said with little enthusiasm.
"Dude! This is serious!" Kodai near-screamed, "He hates me and will stop at nothing to see me dead again! I may not be afraid of much, but I fear for my sanity if any one of us dies, not just me!"

(Meanwhile, back in the USA...)

"Daddy, when are we going to kill all those idiots?" Scarlet asked Ghost.
"As soon as Masterius gets here, dear daughter. Wait, wait. It will come eventually." Ghost replied.

(Back in Japan...)

*RING* *RING* *RING*
"SOMEONE GET THAT!" Jake yelled.
Jude picked up the phone.
"Umm... is Jake there?" It was Gizmo.
"Yep, one sec." Jude replied as he handed the phone to Jake.
"Hey Jake --" She was cut off.
"Before you go on about the end of the world, we know, and I think the ninja is overreacting personally." He said.
"-- Yeah, about that. Don't ask me how I found out, but apparently our old friend the lich is helping them... I don't think Kodai is overreacting..." She replied nervously, "Me and TEN will be down in a minute to explain."
*SLAM*
"Guys, remember Masterius the Rat?" Jake asked everyone.
"What, the person Illfang said sold us out last year before all this zombie-related destruction occured?" Jude replied with a question, "Yeah, I remember. What about him?"
"He's helping Ghost." Jake said nervously.
"WHAT?!" Everyone screamed in unison except Jake. Nakomis spat out the blood pack she was drinking. Jude was so surprised, the floor around him froze solid.
"I told you! This is more serious than any of you can even imagine!" Kodai half-yelled at Jake.
"If this is true, then we'll need everyone. Get my sister, Gizmo, TEN, Mirah, and all our friends in the truck outside. We'll need as many as we can find." Nakomis replied, obviously surprised, "I'm surprised you made it out of there alive, Kodai."

Blaine was walking around apartment ring 3 when he got a call from Jake.
"Yeah?" He said, not breaking his seriousness.
"Blaine Toshido? That you?" Jake replied, with an obvious undertone of fear, "My blasted 'brother' and his daughter apparently have an ally in one which you create. Masterius is on their side."
"Pfft, that floating skull?! I could just turn him." Blaine replied.
"That's the problem -- you can't, he's too powerful." Jake replied, "He sold us out to Ascendant when he was in the abyss with Illfang last year. Ascendant made hm a freaking demilich."
"Ooh, not good." Blaine replied, still serious, "I guess I'd better help you incompetent fools, then."
*BEEP* *BEEP* *BEEP*
Blaine was the world's premier Necro-Healer, meaning he was a necromancer and healer in one package. He was about to meet the successor to the last remaining archmagis, Wynturr. Two powerful mages against another two powerful mages: Ghost, the successor to Halaster, and Masterius, lord of all liches. Though currently he had his katana on his back and his two Jericho 911s on his hips. No staff in sight. Wytnurr, on the other hand, is the wielder of the most powerful staff in existence, the Staff of Magis.

"Blaine's coming." Jake told everyone in Ring 2, Suite 1, the headquarters of the Light Crusaders, "Soon enough we'll be able to take on Masterius." He said, obviously referring to Wynturr also being the last remaining archmagis.
"Blaine?" Wynturr replied, being very careful not to accidentally trigger a time-stop using her other ability, "How is he going to be of any assistance?"
"Blaine is like you, only he's the world's most powerful necromancer and healer." Jake replied.
*KNOCK*
Nakomis went to answer the door, behind which was Gizmo, the most insane engineer you will ever meet, and her robot TEN.
"Dandelion?" TEN asked Nakomis.
"No thanks." She replied, and motioned them in.
TEN was a robot built for war that was obsessed with flowers. A bit ironic, really.
"So... yeah..." Gizmo started, "The lich is apparently helping Ghost, which is never good news."
*KNOCK*
This time, Jude answered. Blaine was at the door.
"Move aside." He said flatly, "I must meet this archmagis."
"Umm, hi?" Wynturr said as he walked up to her.
The conversation between the group members dragged on for about six hours.

Elsewhere in Tokyo, there was a cloaked and hooded figure walking down a lonely street. This figure was Pain, the Lycan skeleton Fallen Angel. He was rumored to be anything that the mind could imagine. On his arm was his pet snake George.
Silence ensued as he walked down the street toward the center of Tokyo.

(Meanwhile, in the USA...)

"Ghost, we must talk." Masterius told Ghost, while muttering under his breath "I wish I wasn't so pathetic..."
"Of course, of course! Meet me in my chambers." Ghost replied.
This conversation between Ghost, the ultimate conversationalist, and Masterius the lich lord, lasted around the same time as the other group's conversation and covered what was to be done with Jude, Jake, Kodai and Mirah if they were captured.

(Meanwhile, in ARKNET City...)

It was 9:00 AM, and Marcus had just woken up. However, he had forgotten about the curse that was transferred from Jake to him after the Great Zombie Wars. He went to brush his teeth.
"@#$!!!!" He yelled, as soon as he looked at himself in the mirror to discover that he had woken up a woman, "If Drake sends me any of those god damned love letters, he is getting his FACE RIPPED OFF!"

He arrived at the ARKNET Co. towers at around 9:30 to find that he was being called Mary by every assassin there. A fair few made the mistake to try and ask him out and got their faces ripped off.
"Don't you even DARE ask that question, Drake!" He told Drake as soon as he entered his office, but on closer inspection he found a pile of unsent love letters on the floor... all addressed to him.
"And if you send me one more of those, you die." He said flatly.
