Hendrix does a briefing with both of them about a big hole in Canada, as it wasn’t there yesterday. Sandro and Omar learn that it was done last night, with many soldiers helping someone. Omar and Sandro see this as a big destruction for someone to have, with Hendrix believing that someone is looking for items to find. They suspend it can be dangerous weapons that catch Hendrix’s eye. Canadian Soldiers investigating but it’s taken too long for them to find, since early morning. Hendrix tells his team to prepare the mission as he visits Derrick before he goes. He tells Derrick that Bill Hassler is back, as he is stunned to be thought to be defeated after the war, years ago. He wants revenge on Hendrix, with Derrick giving intel to him that he has worked with someone before together. He is not alone, with Hendrix not underestimate despite himself being powerful. Derrick knows how much he carries this burden since becoming Commander, with Hendrix needing a lot more with his army to pull in battle like Derrick's forces do. Hendrix leaves with Derrick and wishes him good luck.
Hendrix, Sandro, and Omar are talking inside about respect, with Hendrix demanding the same with support and caring. He will be hard on them at times but he is willing to take care of his soldiers and protect the world, he doesn’t want to lose more people in his life with Klaus and others causing destruction. They go outside of the hole, near the military base in Canada with all the soldiers unconscious from last night Bill Hassler and his Soldiers come here and steal the excavator to drill in a big hole to find something rare. Hendrix detects Cybernetics and it is energy supplies for someone. The Canadian sees that the cameras are busted and they don’t how they got there. Hendrix detects what happened with Bill Hassler and his army security gets past the security and takes the Excavator to look for energy supplies. Some Canadian Soldiers are in the big hole to find them and hope they survive. Hendrix takes Omar, and Sandro as they fly down the hole to explore what happened here.
They go deep into the hole with a lot of paths to take, with Bill Hassler and his army doing a lot of things to make it hard. They stay together as they enter the big hole that Bill Hassler caused. Hendrix sees a Canadian Soldier is okay and survives with 4 more looking for them. Hendrix got past traps that set up Bill Hassler’s men to ambush, Hendrix and his team. They continue to scout ahead with Hendrix Cybernetics with another Canadian Soldier with one didn’t make it. They are searching for the last Canadian Soldiers and finding Bill Hassler. They found another which turned out to be dead, with Hendrix seeing that 3 didn’t make which makes it even more determined to stop them. Hendrix beats more with the location being close, detecting the energy while Omar and Sandro are behind to make sure that they don’t get ambushed. They approach slowly in the dark with Hendrix putting the light in his Cybernetics.
They head to the main place with everyone collecting energy supplies, with Omar, and Sandro are ambushed by Vernon’s army. Hendrix sees a lot of army surrounding him with tech and weapons that they have, Vernon reveals himself with Hendrix not being surprised by Bill Hassler being here too. They used the excavator to find something there, which has been hiding for decades. They will use more weapons and trade, to boost their army to become strong but that’s the case. He is angry that 3 Canadian soldiers were killed for not getting out of the way and paying the price, with Vernon not concerned about it. Hendrix sees him without his suit remarking that he destroyed his, a decade ago. Vernon still has a grudge against Hendrix, after destroying the Power Energy Core, with Hendrix remarks that could have destroyed the world. He will use it to take everything from him, Hendrix knows it’s just a cliche bad guy trying to take over the world. Hendrix is getting tired of this but will not stop, and they do show remorse for the loss of his wife, Caitlyn all those years ago. They begin in the fight with his men boarding the energy supplies.
Hendrix fights his men with his Cybernetics against improved tech with Vernon with the rest of his boarding one more of energy supplies. Hendrix defeats him with his element abilities in combat. He fights Bill Hassler, and he uses his sonics with him using headphones to block. Hendrix learns that Bill Hassler adapts, with new abilities from his gloves and sword, inspired similar to Klaus but can attack Hendrix. He uses it on Hendrix and uses his abilities to fight him, with Vernon attacking with combat abilities on Hendrix who also counters his too. The fight continues in a long battle with Omar and Sandro fighting more people, the whole thing inside is going to collapse with Vernon escaping with his excavator with Vernon as Hendrix and his team in a different direction. They got out and escaped with Hendrix's help as Omar and Sandro grappled out of there. Canadian soldiers found out that 3 Canadians were killed while heading down at the hands of Vernon and Bill Hassler. They have escaped and got away with the energy core, with Hendrix's worst fear being that Bill and Vernon are working together to not just take down Hendrix. To take everything by attacking and destroying, taking over the country, and being powerful can be chaos. Hendrix wants the Canadian Army to set up in case they come back and attack from each area, the outside and inside.
Hendrix is in his office at his home, Vernon has been M.I.A, and now he’s been working with Bill Hassler. He talks to Saunders about Vernon and he still has a grudge against Hendrix, for destroying Energy Core which is powerful enough to destroy everything around him. He is building a suit to be as powerful as Hendrix or superior to fight in battle. Vernon continues to work his suit by putting a powerful energy core in his suit to have more energy with Light Powers. He needs more to combine his abilities, to become powerful and stronger than everyone else including Hendrix. Bill Hassler wants the Cybernetics, with Vernon disagreeing that Hendrix is powerful with the Cybernetics. Vernon will test it now but he will need more, with Bill searching for more powerful items.
