Jack dashed up to the air as he grabbed you in bridal style then floated on the air, "I don't want you to harm yourself again,"

"I didn't mean to do that, Jack! Put me down..." you knocked his shoulder begging to let go but Jack didn't obeyed you until he dropped you down on the ground. "Jack, I was in training to activate my upgraded jet-pack, which it only can activated if I get stuck in gravity for 700 metre from ground," you sighed.

"Sorry, snowflake..." Jack looked upset before he snapped by the crowding of some tourists toward someone, makes him pulled your hand to the crowd, as well as Rapunzel, Hiccup and Merida.

"Look! That's one of the Special Force, Jack Frost!!"

"He saved the girl from commited suicide and eaten by sharks,"

As you and the Big Four getting along the crowds of tourists and reporters, they noticed there was a blonde man with wearing white sleeveless shirt, and his right hand has some metal weaponry on it. Most of them didn't know him very well.

"Didn't we know you?" Jack asked, in curious.

That man hissed as he looked to Jack sharply, "Jack? Jack Force?"

"It's Jack Frost," the winter spirit pointed his staff toward the man caused Hiccup pulled him away from behind.

"He's look suspicious, with wearing the metal weapon like this," Hiccup said.

"Enough for that. Now we need to-" Jack paused as that man grabbed your hand makes you pulled close to him, makes you screamed in fear, his left arm gripped you tightly to him while his right hand pointed laser gun to your head.

"Let her go!" Merida yelled.

That man laughed as he said, "Aloha everyone. I'm Dimitri Ratzykrov from Moscow," he pointed his laser gun to your head as he pressed the level with some noisy sound, "I'm going to test how far this machinary can harm down the terrorists like her," that makes you almost cried loking to your crews and Big Four sadly.

"OMG!" Mazlee gasped, makes Rapunzel cupped her mouth shocked, Merida and Hiccup growled looking to the terrorist while Jack muttered, "Buzz-tard,"

"Dimitri Ratzykrov is going to chop and kill everyone as dead meat," he said as he laughed kept gripping you tightly makes you groaned in pain due to suffocation.

"What are going to do now? He will harm (Name) with those sharp blades," Rapunzel said to the rest before snapped by the gun shot toward them makes them get down on the ground. Dimitri walked backward dragging you as well, makes you tried to fight back with struggling yourself against him but as he pointed his metal gigantic right glove that has a sharp point at each fingers, each touch at your skin makes you whimpered. As the Big Four get up looking to the terrorist....

"He's getting too much," Jack muttered. "We have to save (Name)," he gripped his staff with his own strength to the end, "Even we have to die only for her and her nation," with him, Hiccup, Rapunzel and Merida were ready with their black staff, fire sword, bladed-pan and bow-arrow as they get step forward to fight against the terrorist.

Dimitri pointed his right hand with gigantic metal gloves toward them before each fingertips released a few small missiles makes them turned panicked. Jack stabbed his staff on the ground forming ice dome around them while Rapunzel hide her face with her pan, makes it expanded into 2 metre diameter enough to cover all of them from the missiles after getting thru the ice dome and breaking it. And then, Merida get the strike back with pointing the arrow across the bow before she released rocket arrow as it exploded into small missiles to the air, but the terrorist lend his right hand forward, there was an invisible dome before him makes the  missiles can't get closer to it. He evilly laughed.

Hiccup looked to his tablet as the screen showing the robotic circuit inside the terrorist's body, showing the main circuit is at his abdomen which it programmed to send each action to his right arm via nerve system. "The main source of his power is at his body, we need to shoot right there if we want to defeat him,"

"But the problem is (Name) is already at his hands," Jack interrupted as he turned to Hiccup.

KABOOM!!

Toothless' fire-burst to the wall makes the terrorist get distracted, watching the dragon growled before bursting more fireballs makes the terrorist ran away dragging you away makes the Big Four pursued after him as well. Ended against high wall to the beach, he pointed you to the edge of the wall, as he warned to them, "Don't move!" that makes those teens stopped. "I'm going to stop this terror but you don't want let it happen. Fine," and then his right gloves pointed sharp needle to your head pressing it deeper, makes you whimpered, "Choose either this terrorist or..."

"Don't answer anything. He will kill all of us if he want to," Hiccup said silently to the rest.

"YOUR lives!!" the terrorist pointed his right arm forward, the metal glove released sharp flying blades makes Rapunzel screamed as she waved her pan like a baseball bat, releasing the spinning circle blade-pan as it hit those flying blades before it fled up to the air, makes all of them looked up before looking to the blonde's hand, there's only handle at her right hand for all.

"Is it what you guys can do?" the terrorist laughed, he gripped you tighter makes you groaned and most of your system can't respond to your action very well. "What an useless soldier," he kept laughing without realizing the spinning blade-pan is flying down behind the terrorist and it hit...

CHOOK!

Right at the main core of the programmer at is back, causing electric bolt makes him screamed in pain pushed you forward makes Rapunzel and Merida caught you up. Jack stabbed his staff to the ground forming ice blades on the ground and it grew inch by inch forward every seconds, right toward one car. "This is gonna hurt you!!" Jack shouted

SMASH!!

The car threw up to the air as it spinning toward the terorrist, makes him looked up thus he used the metal gloves, his fingertips functioned as chain-saw before he jumped up and chop that car into half. Each chopped side of that car fell at his each side makes those teens looked at him surprisedly. Hiccup walked forward with fire sword, and the terrorist with his metal right glove as well.

"Heh! Now I'm playing an idiot game with the Viking," the terrorist laughed, makes Hiccup smirked as both of them ran forward against the battle field with a battle cry. Both of them make a first strike makes the fire sword and metal finger-blades clashed with some fireworks, then they kept pushing each other

The heat from Hiccup's fire sword makes the metal finger-blade melted a bit makes him snapped. Hiccup pushed his sword forward as the finger-blades had been chopped into half and dropped on the floor as well as the terrorist. Looking down to his gloves with no fingers makes him shouted, "No! My weapons!!"

You pointed your right wrist-gun as it released a small bullet and it stuck at the terrorist's metal glove. It blinked in red for a few seconds before....

KABOOM!!

The metal gloves exploded makes all of you get aside. The terrorist looked to his destroyed metal gloves with revealing electric circuit and there's one large chip at the middle and.... if you zoomed your eyes close to the symbol at the chip.... it was a Clutch Core ideology symbol, makes you gasped.

"Clutch Core?" you said breathlessly makes the rest repeated the same word as well.

Meanwhile, at the Moscow branch of Clutch Core Academy, specifically at the civil engineering lab, the large white tube of the machines started to let out some electric bolts and fireworks. A few scientists rushed around the controller as they pressed each button to stop it.

"Эта система находится вне контроля. Нам нужно связаться Родригес / This system is out of control. We need to contact Rodriguez,"

"Мы не можем сделать это. Все линии связи были вырублены из-за этого стихийного бедстви / We can't do that. All of the communication line had been cut down due to this interruptance,"

"Ишков-400 будет взорвана в кратчайшие сроки. Нам нужно выбраться из- / The Ishkov-400 will be exploded in no time. We need to get out from-"

KABOOM!!

Back to Hawaii....

The terrorist stood up looking to all of you as he said, "You won again....," then his left hand pressed the circle button at the middle of his abdomen as it blinked in red, "Self-Destruction Activated in 5... 4.... 3.... 2...."

"Look out!!" you shouted as you pushed them get down to the ground before...

KABOOM!!

The explosion makes all of you hide your face to the ground causing the thick smoke spread around the beach. After a few minutes, the smoke faded out makes all of you looked around, there's only a deep hole appeared before them and some shattered metal shards. Rapunzel's spinning blade pan stabbed the ground before them with some smoke around it. "Looks like he's gone," you said.

The police patrol car of HPD arrived there as well as Alfred Firinson V. "It seems the crime is already over a few minutes ago," Alfred said. Most of the polices pointed their gun around the scene before a couple of them handcuffed you and the Big Four, makes Alfred shouted, "Let them go. They're not the suspects," that makes them obeyed as you and those teens get released.

"(Last name), tell me what's going on," Alfred asked.

"Dimitri Ratzykrov is one of the scientists from Moscow branch of Clutch Core Academy, who he's also a weaponry engineer for the Russian military as well," you replied.

"He worked for Clutch Core as well? Oh man this is getting serious, they involved the third person for this,"

"Not third person but more to two-way collaboration,"

---

Meanwhile somewhere in United States

There was a beautiful woman watched TV, red curly haired with thick pink lips wearing sleeveless white shirt, the screen showing the current news of the chaos in Honolulu where Alfred had been interviewed by the reporters, "It was a third party interruption by the Russian military to test on their weapons only to harm down the civillians. We don't know he did he can bring along these weapons but we have to make any further action to reveal who is the culprit of this situation," until she snapped by, "Miss when will you start this lesson?"

She turned to the man with all-white clothes, her personal assistant, "Well, if you want to, I can start it right now," she replied.

"Hurry up Miss. They're already waiting for you,"

"If you said so..." that woman threw her bag to that man makes him dropped on the floor due to the load, "Bring along this bag,"

That man groaned feeling the heavy load of her bag as he asked, "Such a heavy bag. What did you put inside?"

"Of course my make-ups,"

"Honest to say I never seen a beautiful woman like you before,"

The woman giggled as she kept looking to the TV screen, watching Alfred been interviewed by the reporters makes she said to herself, "It seems you're not changed, Alfie even 5 years already passed by. What would you like to make me loving you?"

---

At the same time, at Thrasher and Linka's room. Linka cupped one 5cm x 5cm x 5cm cube orange box as she walked to Thrasher, "Sr, we have a parcel from unknown but it written the adress for two of us," she placed the box on the table.

Thrasher stood at her side, "Well, it' look suspicious," he pointed his stick to the cube as it glowing in white. "Let me check it. I feel uneasy for this," and then the glow faded out as...

The box suddenly glowing in orange before the top part exploded suddenly makes Thrasher and Linka walked backward from it. The firework explosion in agressive colors popped out frm the fox followed with 3D animation of the hawk looking for its prey before it faded out in 10 seconds as well as the fireworks. As they walked forward, the box has nothing inside, except some black dust.

"I knew it! It would be the traitor make this to take me down," Thrasher said.

"You mean... who?" Linka asked.

"Silver Hawk," Thrasher muttered.

"But you said Nico who-"

"That's the other one. I referred to someone who betrayed Clutch Core only for revealing something underneath it,"

"Well, can you tell me how he betrayed you, you already mentioned in last episode remember?"

Thrasher sighed, "Fine, but only this time I told you,"

FLASHBACK START

March 2011

Thrasher Rotten already opened his Clutch Core Academy since June 2010 and so far nothing suspicious with it till March 2011, Thrasher get some order from 'Prince of Darkness' asking for some blood sacrification for the annual anniversary of his 'power revealation' thus he ordered some of his students to kidnap over 666 children around United States by using 'take away promotion' method (promoting kids of some sweets, and ask them to follow them if they want more). Try to make sure nobody recognized his evil work, he asked his students to hide their student identity and pretend to be a stranger, they caged those kids inside one abandoned mansion with little food and drink once a day.

But they had just forgot something. Among 13 students who make their evil mission, one of them was someone familliar, and he knew what is beneath Clutch Core ideology - to object against government only for the demon's pleasure.

(time skip)

The sacrification night already started, The day turned dark, but only the candle-light covered the entire of the mansion. Thrasher Rotten wearing the black robe with the blood stain on it, get a seat on his royal chair watching his students dragged the kid one by one to the circle of Clutch Core symbol on it. And then Thrasher held a holy dagger as he chanted of something that nobody understand but it's about summoning demon, he sliced each kids at their back ake them heavily blodded screaming in pain. His students smirked looking for the torture.

Until 5 hours later, the last children, little girl aged 12 who will get sacrificed and Thrasher Rotten repeated the same step. One of his students shouted, "STOP!!"

"What you need to stop this? This is not undone yet," Thrasher asked.

And then that student removed his black robe revealing his white-orange shirt and blue jeans and then he wearing the eagle-shaped eye mask.

"What are you doing?" one of the other student asked.

"Sorry for interrupting this, Thrasher Rotten. I'm Silver Hawk from M.E.T.A. Force. I already lurked on you since you opened the academy and I know what is your hidden agenda of reforming Clutch Core ideology,"

"You damned traitor!!" then he ordered his other students, "Get him!!" that makes his other students with baseball bat trying to attack Silver Hawk but that eagle striked them faster than they can. Watching his students in pain makes Thrasher hissed as he pointed his stick with white gem to Silver Hawk.

"You're betraying Clutch Core.... this isyour end!" the white laser shot forward makes Silver Hawk turned his transparent cape forward make the laser reflected makes it turned to Thrasher and he got hit. After he took down the dean, Silver Hawk leaved the scene along with the little girl who survived against blood sacrification.

(time skip)

Since then, Thrasher Rotten need to make a spot-check to each students who betrayed Clutch Core by joining the government agency because it's against the Clutch Core Academy Act and Regulations where each of the students are not allowed to join any agency or unit that involved government directly or not. During the spot-check, the head students checked over the students' bag, even the hostel staff checked over the student dorm to find anything that related to Silver Hawk things.

The real identity of Silver Hawk knew he will get killed if they knew who is really him, he had no choice except putting his eagle eye-mask and his M.E.T.A. Force power-card inside his friend's bag during the (subject) class. And then, the spot-check happend in sudden, all students including the real identity of Silver Hawk need to get extreme check-up on themselves and their bag, and their table. So far nothing suspicious of it until....

when the head students checked over (m/buddy name)'s bag, they have found the eagle eye-mask and M.E.T.A. Force power-card inside his bag. "Your spying is over, Silver Hawk,"

"Silver Hawk? Hey, what are you talking about? What Silver Hawk?" (m/buddy name) had been dragged by the head students out from the lecturer room as they replied, "You have to explain this to Sir Thrasher Rotten,"

The real identity sighed in relief but.... he felt regret for betraying his friend only to save his life.

(time skip)

At the next morning at the large football field, (m/buddy name) pushed down on the ground harshly by the angry students, he sat up looking over thousands angry students as they threw some tomatoes to him with 'boo'. As Thrasher in black-red military clothes came by, the students silenced as he announced, "Today we will witness the punishment for betraying the Clutch Core by joining the government, it's against Clutch Core Act 364/A Section," then he looked to (m/buddy name) as he asked, "What is your last wish, traitor?"

But he shake his head slowly. One student grabbed his long gun as he pointed it toward (m/buddy name)'s head, most of the female students covered their face in fear and....

BANG!!

FLASHBACK END

"You killed him only because he worked for the government?" Linka shocked.

"I have to kill him so he won't reveal the reality underneath Clutch Core to the public or the worst, the government. What if they knew of those terror happend lately are related with this academy?" Thrasher asked makes Linka muted for a while.

---

Meanwhile, Nico with hotel staff uniform went out from the store room as he pushed the cart of house-keeping things then he peeked underneath the cart to see what's inside, he sighed in relief. And then he arrived to one room where you and Jack live in, "Housekeeping Service here," and then he took out a key to unlock the door before he pushed the cart inside the room. And then he make the house-keeping tasks as usual - sweeping floor, arranging the bed, pick up garbages but there's something happen. He didn't realized 'something' from the bottom level of the cart rolled down on the floor as it rolled under the bed.

As Nico finished his task, he went out from the room pushing the cart along acting like nothing. Hiccup coincidentally arrived there noticed Nico whistled pushing the cart leaving the scene.

"He look suspicious, whistiling and trying to not look everyone.." Hiccup said to himself before he snapped as Rapunzel came pulling his hand, drag him away leaving the scene to ground floor.

At ground floor of the hotel, there was an art exhibition for International Academy and Institute Festival involved over 300 students from 100 academies worldwide, where Rapunzel is one of the participant involved. The oil painting on canvas - the golden-lock girl in semi realistic potrait with the floating lanterns and so on.

---

At the next day....

It was the fourth day of the festival. The first event that you guys wanna see for now is archery contest, where M.E.T.A. Force only choose 5 senior cadets and not Merida. The Big Four and you get a seat in long row at the first place to see the contest and Merida - looks upset for not getting into their shoes. When M.E.T.A. Force cadets get their turn, they pointed the arrow across the bow before they released it. And they missed the bulleye to the edge of the dart, makes you sighed badly. And then your other cadets get their turn but their result is neither of them got bulleye except one of 5 senior cadets - only because he sneezed during releasing the arrow.

"I hope M.E.T.A. Force get bronze medal for this contest," you sighed then you looked to the next seat - and Merida was gone, replaced with the random kid enjoyed ice-cream. As you turned around, you watched Merida walked toward the tournament area as she introduced,

"I am Merida, the first generation of Clan Dunbronch. I want to show yer how the archery expert made her work," that makes you stood up shocked of it, as well as Hiccup and Rapunzel - and Jack was asleep. Merida pointed an arrow across her bow get her focus before she released it. In slow motion, the arrow released from the bow fled straight to the dart right at the bulleye even it also make the latest arrow broke in half by her arrow and finally, it stabbed thru the dart canvas. Merida smiled looking to her latest achievement until she turned to her left.

She surprised as you looked sharply to her.

(time skip)

You dragged Merida's hand to the waiting lounge as you shouted, "Embarassing! You didn't chosen for the archery contest and you've just spoiled the moment to get the bronze medal!"

"Most of yer cadets are not good in archery. They're supposed to learn it from me," Merida replied.

"Whatcha said? If you didn't interrupted that tournament, we already get a bronze medal but what do we get? Our submission had been declined. At least they don't have red-noodle head like you," you snatched Merida's bow as you broke it in half with your knees then threw it out of the window, makes her terrified of it, she grabbed her sword as she pointed it toward your potrait picture on the wall. You lend your hand forward, "Merida, please get calm. Don't try to get over the limit,"

"I want to change mi fate and yer tried to stop me to achieve my dream," Merida stabbed the sword thru the glass layer of your potrait picture makes you shouted, "Merida, don't!!"

And then, the photoframe fell down from the wall, makes it dropped on the floor. Glass shattered spattered and your potrait picture torn in half, makes you turned to Merida, "What have you done?"

Merida gritted her teeth before she ran away from the waiting lounge even Rapunzel, Hiccup and Jack noticed she leaved them in opposite way. The blonde want to get after her but as she tried to pursue her, Merida already gone along the crowd of people. Those 3 walked inside the waiting lounge looking you picked up the broken potrait of yourself.

"(Name), what happen to Merida?" Jack asked.

"You didn't know cause you're asleep. Merida want to achieve her dream but I've just stopped her to change her fate - to be the greatest archerer in the world," you replied.

---



Merida's POV

I ran across the crowds bearing my whimper for listening what (Name) just said to me. She threw away my bow after breaking it in half - archery is the my talent that I can show to the other, to change my fate from being a princess. Who said princess can't get into archery very well. (Name) are just like my mom, she always think I'm wrong. I stopped somewhere at the large city since I didn't know how far I ran away from (Name). Is she looking for me? How about Punzie, Hiccup and Jack, even Alfred? I looked around to find another way as long as I won't turn back to (Name). And then I noticed a wisp at the right of me, makes me followed before it for a few miles until I stopped at the dark alley as the wisp brought me there. I walked forward slowly looking the dirty path of mosses and messy drawings until I had been snapped by someone.

"What are you looking for, child?" as I turned around, the woman maybe aged 48, pushing her bicycle carrying load of cardboxes, plastic bottles, and much more smiled at me. "Do you looking for something?"

"Well..." I took a breathe for a while. "I want to change my fate,"

"Fate? I think you want to be the best and different than other, don't you?"

"How did yer know?"

"I used to have a daughter just in your age before she died in rock-climbing accident during her school-trip. She has her own bravery instinct, just like you," and then she took out something from the box as she took out a bronze necklace to me, "This is the only my daughter's property that I have after her death,"

The pendant looks similar as mine. The bronze necklace with 3 bears in circle.

"I bet you will change your fate after wearing this necklace. You will make everyone proud of your talent that I have," her words makes me excited, if she said so it can change my fate, this is my golden chance for it. I grabbed that necklace and wearing it, feeling the pendant at my chest makes my heart beat faster.

"Feeling the adrenaline, child?" the woman asked. "That's how my daughter feel like when she wear this necklace for the first time," she added makes me smiled as I leaved her with full of spirit

---

Normal POV

The woman with pushing bicycle of recycle items smirked, before she faded in turning into his original form - Thrasher Rotten. "Stupid princess for trusting the stranger," he held the real Merida's necklace as he added, "Hope this works very well..." he turned to the dying old woman that he disguised as, her soul had been sucked inside the white gem of Thrasher's stick.

Looking to the white gem with flying souls screaming for help. Thrasher smirked, "I'm sorry but I have to use your soul for your sake,"

(time skip)

Merida peeked to the front door of the hotel to make sure you were not around and then she walked like nothing happen then stopped at the middle until....

Nico was moping the floor as he walked backward with humming (song) before he collided suddenly with Merida, right at her bum makes her fell on the floor. The red warrior stood up rubbing her bum looking to Nico angrily, "Where did yer put yer eyes?"

"Sorry," Nico replied, with wide smile holding his cap up to the air, he noticed Merida leaved. "Wait the second miss,"

"What?" Merida turned around.

Nico pointed his finger down to her chest. He flattered like a stucked movie dialogue "There-there-there-there-there-there-there-there is..."

"What are yer looking at?" Merida shouted before she walked forward leaving Nico. Coincidentally Rapunzel, Hiccup and Jack were there.

"Merida, (Name) is looking for you for ages. Where are you going?" Rapunzel asked.

"Nothing, Punzie," Merida looked moody. "I just want to keep mi tension away,"

"You'll be alright, noodle head," Jack smirked poking his staff to Merida's head makes her pushed it aside in irritated. "Come on. (Name) is looking us now,"

"And the crews as well. Tonight we will watching 'Drum Dance Hop Final' and 'Battle of the Band Final' at the hall," Rapunzel said. "You'll be excited with it after this,"

"But I-" Merida replied.

"Nothing would happen to us. (Name) want to apologize and she's looking for you," Hiccup said makes Merida replied, "Really?"

"Why would we lie on you if (Name) told us so?" Jack smiled looking at you as you recently arrived there. As Merida stare to your eyes, she felt something strange. The necklace glowing in red, as well as her eyes.

"Merida, I'm sorry for what I've done to you," you apologized. "I was-"

"No, (Name). Yer are fine," Merida cupped your shoulder makes you felt weird.

"I hope you're not sick,"

"I-I'm alright, (Name)-"

---

At Thrasher's room,... Thrasher watched the camera recording from Merida's necklace's view that now viewed on his laptop. Actually Thrasher installed camera, recorder and a red gem inside the fake necklace that now in Merida's hands.

"I-I'm alright (Name) I know I want to change my own fate but yer said I'm wrong...." Merida said.

"It's okay, what if we have a dinner? There's an apple served only for you..." you wrapped around Merida's shoulder from behind as you brought her away as well as Rapunzel, Hiccup and Jack.

"Let's see if you can be the apple in Clutch Core's eyes, Merida Dunbronch," Thrasher smirked. "If you want to achieve your dream but the side you joined stopped you, let me show you the way...." and then he laughed evilly.
