Cell City (15)

Over a century later following the events of the galactic war, a new country was built in the middle of the ocean between Arbok and Titania. It was a perfectly circular man-made island. The entire landmass was made up of an urban city. This land became known as Cell City.

Cell City is the most technologically advanced country in the world. The country's construction was founded by rich nobles from Arbok, descendants of the previous royal family. Cell City has no Order for its country. It is ran by a president, who acts as a king would, with less political power. Though he doesn't need to, as Cell City is under protection by Arbok. The leader of Arbok keeps Cell City's laws in check, while the president enforces them and chooses from a variety of rules and regulations for the citizens to follow.

At the time, Cell City was under martial law (Meaning the military controlled the civilians on orders from the leader of the country). The country was flooded with poor refugees from other countries that were taken in, and a wide variety of criminals who saw Cell City as an opportunity for crime. The country was still new and young, so a lot was going wrong.

Cell City is the only country that uses cars and highways as transportation. Crime is thwarted by military officers, who arrest these criminals and jail them. But the people are also oppressed by the military as well. The general happiness of the citizens here was low.

Here, a boy named Aron was born. At a young age, he showed promise with his abilities. He had a laser power. Aron could use these lasers to resemble a variety of things. As a small child, he would make toy cars, or action figures. The military feared this power because a laser user was a high threat to the country's technology.

At the age of twelve, the military stormed the home of Aron and his parents. They came to take him into custody.

There was only one man there out of the soldiers who had no mask. Aron remembered this face well. His name was Medial, General of Cell City's military. He was tall, skinny, with long black hair that reached his shoulders, and soulless black eyes that showed no mercy.

In an attempt to protect their son, Aron's parents told him to run out the back door. As they told him this, Medial was electrocuting them with his power.

He nodded upwards toward Aron. "After the kid." he said calmly.

Aron ran as fast as he could. As he left his house, he heard several gunshots. He knew what happened. As he ran through alleys and climbed over walls, trying to get away, he heard the explosion.

His house was set on fire.

The firetrucks followed later. His parents were dead.

Ever since that day, Aron had been living his life fleeing from the military, getting stronger so that one day he could kill Medial.

Now he was seventeen. Aron was used to his lifestyle. He spent his days taking out as many military officers as he could, gaining information on Medial. When he got in trouble, he'd make a high-tech motorcycle out of his laser power and speed away on the highways. No one could catch him.

Cell City's military used high tech warfare. Bullets, laser guns, high-tech traps, tasers, etc. Things you wouldn't see in the other countries. But even after five years, Aron still wasn't captured. He'd get money from whatever the officers had on them, but few restaurants would serve him. If the military found out that someone sold to Aron, they got their business shut down. He lived his life as a fugitive.

Aron would defeat one of the strongest heads of the military, Banshee. Banshee was a large, built man, who was known for his loud war cry and inhuman strength. He also had a exoskeleton suit on, which only increased his already insane power. As a reward for defeating him, Banshee gave up all the information Aron needed on the whereabouts of Medial.

That same day, Aron headed to the skyscraper on the eastern side of the city where Medial was located. Aron didn't bother with stealth. He crashed straight into the side of the building. He singlehandedly took out everybody on every floor as he made his way to the bottom. He found out that Medial was using his position to influence the president. Under Medial's watch, no information was getting leaked out of the city, making Arbok to believe that everything was working smoothly. Aron was determined to end it all right there.

In the basement of the skyscraper, there were rows and rows of jail cells full of children. Aron didn't need an explanation for what was going on. These were all of the children who weren't as lucky as he was five years ago. He broke them all out of their cells. This set off the alarm. When the guards came to investigate, they were met with over a hundred kids with various powers. The guards were easily overtaken.

Backup came soon, the basement was flooded with one hundred and fifty more guards quickly. Aron found himself fighting back to back with a thirteen year old kid named Airson. Airson was stronger than the other kids. He was a yellow lightning user. Him combined with Aron's laser made a great combo. Airson insisted he went with Aron to defeat Medial. Aron was Airson's first friend outside of the cells.

After getting the children out, Aron and Airson found Medial in a room that was several flights of stairs below the basement. He proved to be stronger than they thought. His electric powers blew up the building from the bottom up as it collapsed.

When they got out, the sun was still up. Medial revealed that he had another power apart from his electricity; solar absorption. He could feed off the sun's energy. This gave Medial an infinite source of power. He was unstoppable.

Aron and Airson focused on surviving until the sun went down. This was no easy task. Medial's solar power along with his electricity was almost too much to handle. But they did it. The sun finally set, and Medial could only use electricity. Aron and Airson went at him. Medial was tired from all the attacking he did prior.

They beat him. Medial died.

Aron went to the president's office to contact Arbok about what was happening. They sent Alpha and Beta Squadron Knights over to clean up the mess. The current president was kicked out, and Cell City went though a rehab phase, but they would never have problems like this again.
