## Chronology

### Newcomers Arc

Ash first appears in chapter 1 where he is alongside Artyom as the two of them overlook the skylines of Academy City where Anto Čedomir and Ana Cveta have both fled to after escaping an attack from Russian Soldiers. Ash then heads to School District 10 where he begins to kill and slaughter countless residents in the district while trying to find Ana and Anto. Once he finds out that neither of them went through the area, Ash then decides to murder every single person he let live during his first encounters with them and eventually went after a small Skill-Out group and was able to successfully destroy it by killing all of its members. Two days later, he manages to find Anto and Ana hanging out with Touma Kamijou and Mikoto Misaka on a tour of the city and he begins to go after them when Anti-Skill arrives and knowing that he did the District 10 Massacre, plan to take him in. Ash then slaughters all of the Anti-Skill Forces using his wires and mutilates them and gunning down the rest with an advanced assault rifle. He eventually returns to Artyom where he initially says the mission's done but after saying that he has to continue to capture Anto and Ana, he says that he can't do it because of other plans and betrays Artyom by killing multiple Death Squad members and slashing him in the arm before jumping off the building they were on and being picked up by a Luminous Path gunship.
