"So what's the progress" Ultrawoman asked one of her scientist at her secret base in Angel Falls

"This alien crystal you brought us is truly fascinating, but difficult to understand. We used all your advanced knowledge to decipher the markings on the crystal but the only word we can understand is "Prosperity". It's emitting a strange energy…one that I have never seen before. There is no telling what this crystal can do." Elisa said to her mistress, who was barely awake after continuous days of research.

"Hmm…What a shame. Still I still see some potential in this bauble. In any case…Continue researching this artifact. I expect a full report by tomorrow." Ultrawoman said while leaving the room.

"But. Mistress…That's…"

"That's what?" Vyr-Na said with a stern voice as she faced the Elisa with a calm look.

"N-Nothing…It shall be done" the scientist said as she went back to work.

Late on Halloween night, Elisa was hard at work; trying to decipher the alien language while struggling to determine what kind of power was this crystal harboring. The stress of her work caused Elisa to yell in frustration.

"THAT BITCH!!…SHE'S ALWAYS WORKING ME TO DEATH…DEMANDING RESULTS THAT TAKE WEEKS TO COMPILE…SHE NEVER LETS ME HAVE ANY TIME OFF OR ANY BENEFITS TO THIS JOB…AND SHE HAS TO NERVE TO TAKE ALL THE CREDIT FOR OUR DISCOVERIES. SOMETIMES, I WISH THAT…WHAT THE? " Elisa said before she was interrupted by a strange sight.

The alien artifact suddenly began emitting a strange-red aura that continued to glow brighter and brighter. While other scientist entered the room after hearing the strange noise in the research room, Elisa tried to analyze the strange phenomenon but was unable to determine what was going on. Without warning, the crystal complied all its energy together and rapidly fired energy blast all over the room. Some of the blast managed to escape the compound and make its way to different areas of the city.

Meanwhile, Vry-Na was in her room, thinking up games to play with her pet, Snowball. She had many lovers and pets, but she considered War-Cat one of her favorites. Her fun was soon interrupted when she heard the explosion in one of her research rooms. Ultrawoman exited her room and rushed towards the explosion.

Upon arrival, she was shocked to see some of the scientists alive and perfectly fine, but they just stood perfectly still. Ultrawoman immediately headed over to the lead scientists, Elisa, hoping to acquire some answers. Without warning, Elisa and the scientist jumped onto Ultrawoman. Within an instant Ultrawoman kicked each scientist off of her. Normally, regular scientist would have been knocked out or paralyzed for weeks, but these scientists immediately stood up, ready for more. Their eyes became bright soulless green and any pain they felt instantly healed.

"What's wrong with you?" Ultrawoman asked with a worried tone

Meanwhile on the other side of the city, Bardak was jumping from rooftop to rooftop, keeping a vigilante eye on possible pranksters and vandalists. His helmets sensors soon rang wild at the unknown energy signature heading to different areas of the city. After a few minutes of jumping, he arrived at the charred pavement at was struck by the blast. He then got out his BTR and scanned the surrounding area. After his analysis was complete, Bardak was shocked at the results. It was an ancient, self-replicating parasitic pathogen that infects any host by physical damage of an infected host. Soon he was interrupted upon hearing a loud scream a few meters away. He immediately drew his sword and then headed toward the sight of the attack.

Upon arrival, he was stopped by an average citizen, whose eyes were a bright, soulless green. Bardak's helmet sensors confirmed he was infected with the pathogen. Without warning, the citizen punched Bardak in the stomach, causing him to glide a few feet back. Bardak was shocked at how strong and how unphased the citizen was after punching Bardak. He retaliated by punching the citizen in the chest; causing him to fly a few meters back and crashing into a near-by wall.

After the short battle, Bardak's sensors detected five more infected life-forms hiding in the shadows. Two of the infected victims ran towards the wall and helped up the beaten citizen, while the remaining three charged toward the armored General. Bardak got into a defense stance and waited for the right time to attack. Once all 3 citizens got within range, Bardak lunged toward, dodged the infected attacks, and bash each citizen behind their head.

As each infected citizen fell to the ground, Bardak's sensors soon detected more and more infected victims approaching his position. Although his situation was grim, a ray of hope soon dawned upon him. A few meters away, his sensors detected Soviet-Superwoman and FireBrandi approaching his position. Feeling confident the tide was about to turn, Bardak opened a channel with Olga and Brandi to warn them about the situation.

"Olga…Brandi; this is General Bardak. There is an unknown pathogen that has infected several citizens. Use extreme caution; these infected citizens seem to gain enhanced strength and immense healing factors. DO NOT LET THEM HARM YOU!" Bardak said before splitting his sword into two and getting into a defense position towards the infected victims.

It seemed strange Olga and FireBrandi didn't respond or acknowledge Bardak's message and continued toward his position. While FireBrandi stopped and hovered in the air above Bardak, Olga increased her speed toward Bardak.

"Olga, what are you doing? You coming in too fast? Olga? OLGA?" Bardak said as he turned towards the falcon diving Olga.

Soviet-Superwoman extended her right fist back and punched the ground Bardak was standing on. While a huge crater was forming, Bardak jumped high into the air at the last moment. While trying to get over the fact he saw her eyes were a bright, soulless green, he was interrupted by fireballs being thrown at him. Bardak managed to dodge some of the fireballs and deflect them with his sword in mid-air. Hoping his fear hasn't been realized, Bardak used his sensors to scan both heroines. He fears were soon confirmed; FireBrandi and Soviet-Superwoman were infected.

Upon landing, the infected citizens charged towards him but Bardak jumped to the top of a 5 story building, hoping to formulate an attack and rescue plan. FireBrandi flew towards Bardak's position and unleashed a powerful fire blast that engulfed the entire rooftop. After a minute of watching the roof burn, Brandi focused her energy and created a huge fireball over her head. Before she attacked, a powerful blue energy beam was fired from the roof at her. After she was struck, Bardak calmly stood up from the fire and with a strong swing he swung his blood-red cape around him, creating a small scorched perimeter between Bardak and the fire. Although he sustained minor damage, he showed no signs of scorch marks or any burn damage.

As FireBrandi started to descend, Bardak used his sensors to scan FireBrandi, hoping his attack wasn't severe. He was interrupted when he detected Olga approaching at high speeds. Before he could mount a defense, Olga grabbed Bardak then wrapped her arms around him and then started to squeeze him. Warning lights and alarms could be heard in Bardak's armor as Olga continued to crush the armored General. While Bardak tried to break free, he stared into Olga's soulless green eyes.

"Ol-Olga…Y….You got…to...fi—fi…fight this…virus" Bardak struggles to say

Hoping his words reached her, Olga grunted and her cold blue eyes struggled to return to her. Despite his words not reaching her, Bardak seized that moment of confusion to break free of her grip. After he managed to free his right arm, Olga's eyes quickly returned soulless green and then rapidly descended towards the ground. Bardak desperately tried to free himself but to no avail. Using the limited amount of strength he had, Bardak punched Olga on the right side of her face. While Olga slightly felt disoriented, Bardak seized that moment to slam his feet into the near-by building wall. The force from his kick caused both of them to crash into another building. With Olga's grip loosened, Bardak freed himself, and then jumped off of her chest and into the air. Before he landed on a near-by roof, he was attacked by a barrage of fireballs. After the small explosion, Bardak fell and crushed into the payment. Soviet-Superwoman and FireBrandi then regrouped a few meters above Bardak, waiting to see if the General was still alive.

Bardak slowly moved and tried to stand up from that attack. Deciding it's time to end this, Soviet-Superwoman and FireBrandi both charged towards the armored General. Bardak's sensors detected them, but he couldn't mount a defense in time. Just before the final attack, a powerful energy beam appeared out of nowhere and nearly vaporized the two heroines. Bardak, now able to stand and fight, quickly scanned his allies. Olga and Brandi were still alive but lost consciousness. Bardak looked up and realized his situation shot from grim to complete disaster.

"Hey, Long time no see, Alvie" the blonde juggernaut said

"Vry-Na; What are you doing here? Are you the cause of this virus?" Bardak shouted

"Depends on what you mean by virus. If its humanity, then no I'm not the cause, only the cure. However, this virus…I might have had a minor part in this." Ultrawoman hovered down

"Surrender the antidote to this virus, NOW!" Bardak said as he aimed his gun at her

"Actually…that's why I… came to you. I…I…need you're…help. I only have the cause…this crystal. I didn't even though what this thing was capable of…until now" Ultrawoman pridefully said as she showed Bardak the crystal

Bardak immediately got out his BTR and scanned the crystal. After a few moments of analyzing, his report soon arrived with grim results. He took a step back into horror, knowing actually what that crystal was.

"That can't be…I thought these were destroyed centuries ago." Bardak said with a worried tone

"So, what actually are they? Some kind of…" Ultrawoman said before being interrupted by an unpleasant sight. Out of the darkness, a small army of infected citizens surrounded the two metas. Bardak drew his sword and split then into two while Ultrawoman got into a fighting stance. Though his situation was grim, Bardak deeply sighed at what he had to say next.

"Fine, we can stop this virus if we work…together. Truce?" Bardak said with an annoyed tone

"Agreed? Won't this be fun, Alvie?" Ultrawoman said with cheer in her voice

"I have an idea! Now here is what I need you to do. All these citizens are drawn to your crystal. Fly above our position and hold the crystal above your head. Hopefully, that will draw all the infected citizens to this position."

"Okay, though how to you intend to cure them? Cut them open with your huge butter knives and use your squirt gun to blast the cure into them."

"No, that's the way Velorian medicine works! After studying that crystal, each victim should have a pathogen pod that replicates and repairs damaged cells at an immense rate, near their chest or heart. I could use my blaster to destroy the pod and the victim's immune system will take care of the rest."

"Hmph, sounds complex…I have a more effective solution in mind." Ultrawoman said before hovering high into the air. Focusing her energy, Ultrawoman created a massive energy ball, powerful enough to destroy a fourth of the city.

"Vry-Na, DON"T DO IT!" Bardak shouted before sheathing his sword and reaching for his blaster. Before he fired, he realized there was a chance for her to stop her attack. Hoping his next move will work, he fought through the crowd of infected citizens to reach a near-by building.

"Ah…Corporal Bardak advancing to the rear? I thought he was one to go down with his ship…or city for that matter" Ultrawoman joyful said before reaching her energy filled arms backward. Moments before she attacked, Bardak jumped on top of the building next to Ultrawoman and shouted his revelation.

"YOU REALIZE WAR-CAT AND HOTROD ARE IN THIS PART OF THE CITY! IF YOU DESTROY THIS SECTION, YOU KILL YOUR TRUSTED ALLIES!"

Ultrawoman stopped dead in her tracks and quickly powered down. She hoped it wouldn't have come to this but her worst fear may have been realized.

"SNOWBALL…HOTROD!!" she yelled upon imagining seeing their eyes were soulless green within the infected crowd.

Vry-Na grunted heavily, knowing if she destroys the city, her lovers and pets would be destroyed. Without Bardak's ability, they would remain infected perhaps forever. There was also the possibility that if she did nothing, she herself might eventually become infected, and her dreams of Ultropolis would come to an end. Quickly making her decision, Ultrawoman begrudgingly held the crystal high above her head. While they all walked toward the Velorian hovering above them, Bardak got out his BTR and entered his commands. He raised it into the air and a loud and high pitched screech filled the air. The infected army fell to the ground while covering their ears. Bardak readied his blaster and set it to a high setting with a wide range. He fired his beam at the infected crowd; destroying all the pathogen pods while phasing through the innocent citizens. All of their eyes were returning to normal and any trace of the pathogen was disappearing. While Olga, War-Cat, Brandi, and Hotrod slowly regained consciousness in various parts of the city; Vry-Na slowly drifted down toward Bardak, with the crystal in hand.

"Thank you, Cor…General. Thank you for saving my cat and lover. Now to get this back to my la…" Ultrawoman said before she was interrupted by an energy blast that destroyed the crystal while phasing through her hand.

"What have you done? With a little more research and more study this crystal would have brought as it said "Prosperity" and help me realize my dream of Ultropolis."

"Does your dream involve serving the Uitolson?"

"The what?" Ultrawoman asked in annoyance

"The Uitolson, now extinct, were once an ancient race that controlled a vast galactic empire billions of years ago.  It was strongly believed they used those crystals to conquer worlds without lifting a finger. Those crystals are actually a pathogen weapon that reprograms the host for 3 things; infect all those who are not under their control, eliminate any potential threats, and the Uitolson word is absolute. Even though this helped them conquer worlds, archaeologists in my dimension believe they abused this weapon and it used against them. Their enemies as well as themselves fought until all sides vanished off the face of the universe."

"But the crystal, why did it say "prosperity"?"

"That was part of their motto or the victim's allegiance. It fully states, "Under Uitolson command, we shall become united in our quest for control, our civilization filled with prosperity, and our power shall be limitless as time itself."

"Oh…that is most devious and insidious thing I have ever heard of…Maybe I should look into becoming more of an archaeologist." Ultrawoman delightfully thought to herself

Bardak sighed at her remark, knowing this horrific night may just be the beginning.
