All Hail

*❝ It seems you two fucks leave me no choice. Always getting in the way of my plans! I’ve had it! So it’s the fight you want? You picked it, and you’ll be getting it.❞*
―Father Time to Chris and James
**All Hail** is the 37th story mission of *Shattered 2*, and the 9th and final mission of Chapter III. It can be started by either protagonist.

## Plot

### Thwarting Plan 11

Chris and James show the group that they both have Time Manipulation now, and when they combine their powers, they are more powerful than Father Time. Chris shows the group the pictures he took of Father Time's lair when he was in there, and one of the pictures is of the VX-308 File Eraser, which James recognizes immediately. Wondering what that's doing in his lair, Joey tells him that when Father Time is defeated, everything will be revealed.

Charles hacks into some documents and finds a document outlining Father Time's doomsday plan, called Plan 11. In this plan, he will generate a giant force field surrounding Atlantic City, and shoot propulsion devices containing samples of Time energy into the air. When the samples hit the force field, they’ll burst and replicate, showering the city with Time energy and turning every citizen in the city into evil Time Minion. Chris and James don't have a lot of time to thwart the plan, which Father Time will carry out tonight.

Chris and James head to the Atlantic City Power Station, where Father Time will create the force field from. Specifically, Father Time will use the main generator inside the power station to charge up his powers, and then create the force field. Chris and James surround the main generator building with a Time energy force field, but Father Time breaks through it. Realizing that if Father Time reaches the generator, he will charge up and become twice as strong, Chris and James destroy the generator, sending the entire city into a blackout.

### Secrets Revealed

With the main generator destroyed, a massive blow to Father Time's plan, the final battle commences. Chris and James fight Father Time at the power station, repeatedly combining powers to weaken him. Eventually, after a long, hard boss battle, Father Time is defeated and reveals everything that James was looking for.

Father Time (Nick) reveals that he used to work with Erik and that they spent years creating the DeAmbulation Auraxideno Collider. Three years into the planning, Nick abandoned the project and left Erik, while Erik continued the work. He reveals that it was not because James and Erik were so close to the DAC when it exploded that they received powers; rather, it was because they both had Type M Blood, a special blood type that was activated after the DAC went off, granting them powers. In fact, any person within a 1,000 meter radius of the explosion who had Type M Blood received powers, and took years to develop them.

Nick was one of those people, being only one block away from the explosion when it happened. His body took about a year to develop powers, and when he did, decided he was going to steal the VX-308 File Eraser, a device he heard would wipe his files from the grid. He stole this device from James's apartment and revamped The\_Underscore's old lair for his use. He attempted to activate the File Eraser, but it failed and exploded. Infuriated, Nick left for Atlantic City and went undercover for years, working on a device which would insert powers into others, the Power Elapser, and a device which would replicate powers, the Power Replicator. He was successful, and finally came out of hiding a few weeks prior, which is when news broke that another man with powers was on the loose. James uses his Mind Scan power on Nick to retrieve any information that he wasn't telling James, but Nick dies as a result of this.

### Shutting Down the Systems

While James is dealing with Father Time, Chris realizes that the propulsion systems set up by Father Time to launch capsules of Time energy into the air are still active. Charles tracks the locations of the four propulsion systems but tells Chris there's not enough time to deactivate them all before the plan commences, so he must head to the main terminal inside the lab underneath Sinep Island, the lab where he was once held by Father Time, and shut it down there. Chris reaches the lair and unleashes hell on it, finishing it off with a Sun Nuke, completely destroying it and shutting down Plan 11 for good.

Back at the Power Station, James finds and activates four failsafe terminals around the plant to restore power to the city. With this, Chris returns and cop cars pull up to the scene. Pete exits one of them and tells the two that they saved not only the city, but the world. Chris says that all of this has made him starving, and the three agree on pizza. They are escorted to a cop car, get in, and drive off, ending the mission and a major part of the game's campaign.
