Movement stopped. Even the likes of embodiments were frozen here and now, and the only noise that came to the complex was the slight ripping of the air as reality itself opened the way for someone outside of reality to come in. A young boy with black hair, dressed in black clothing, appeared in the Guardian Complex, curiously looking around. He spoke, and when he did, his voice was not a child's. It was a genuine roar.
"De...struct...ion."
As it muttered that word, K2323, still frozen, moved. Or rather, the chain inside him, the Chain Of Eternity, moved, breaking forth from his back, freeing itself of his body. The chain crumpled itself into a ball and floated in the air nearby this boy.
"You.. Are. Alive.."
The boy gave a great roar, and a portal opened. He stepped through it, and it closed behind him. The base remained frozen, but K2323's eyes opened, a purple haze surrounding him. He looked around, realizing some of what had just happened.
"Animas.. Wake up."
