The fall of the Resistance headquarters in Megacity 1 of the West Asia Grid came not through brute force alone, but through a fatal miscalculation. A captured Mecha-Scout, assumed deactivated, had continued broadcasting its location. The signal led the Overlords’ aerial divisions straight to the heart of the Resistance command. The bombardment was swift, absolute, and surgical. Major Alexey Lobov and Mikaela were not late arrivals or lucky survivors. They were already there embedded deep within the grid’s underground systems when the strike hit. They had always operated from Megacity 1, and they would continue to do so, hidden now beneath a city of ashes. In the wake of devastation, they activated the only tool left: the communication web maintained by the scattered supporter cells. The message was brief but urgent. It reached every megacity in the West Asia Grid and from there, echoed across every Grid on the planet:
“Do not relocate captured Mecha-Scouts. Their cores transmit coordinates even after deactivation. Our base was found this way. Do not repeat our loss.”
The global Resistance heard the warning. Mourning quickly gave way to planning. A new strategy emerged one born not from desperation, but from adaptation. The Resistance would not attempt to rebuild blindly. It would seed new potential in every megacity. And the key to this next phase was a long debated, now accelerated, initiative: teleportation. The plan was bold. Resistance tech teams had been working in secret across the planet to activate a network of portals capable of instant relocation. The first phase would focus on short-range transfers: megacity to megacity, within the same Grid. Complex, yes but achievable. If successful, they would move on to the second phase: cross-Grid teleportation, a far more dangerous endeavor, requiring precision to bypass layered surveillance and field distortions. The first test will bring seasoned operatives from nearby cities into the ruins of Megacity 1 not to rebuild the past, but to forge a new nerve center of resistance, right under the Overlords’ shadow. The war inside the Grids is no longer just about weapons or numbers. Ιt is about momentum. And the Resistance has no intention of slowing down.
