It's been several weeks after THAT incident, Flame Nova, after being sealed, he prefers being…alone, by himself whenever he is released out of the Metal Breath. It's as if he’s trying to make a plan to take over the world again, but of course he had to do it himself. And luckily for him, no one will bother him because well… They're all scared of him. Except…
“Flame Nova?” a familiar voice appeared behind him. He sighs then-
“What is it, Star Guardian..?” In his vehicle mode, he turns around then looks up to the other bot talking before him.
“I was wondering-”
“Not another question, I'm busy.” He coldly answered before driving away,
“H- hey- wait!” Blue Cop called out, but his calls were unanswered.
“Geez Blue, you should really leave him alone..” Jun tells him,
“What if he’s planning something, like taking over the world again…” Mega Ambler expresses,
“Ok, let’s stop making assumptions. He just needs some time to adjust, that's it!” Jun said, trying to make them all get along with each other.
Overhearing their conversation about him, he simply closed his optics and smirks. He drove to a remote corner of the garage, continuing his plans. But out of the blue-
*insert jet/plane noise
“Sky Gallop…” he muttered, Peruru promised to visit Jun again. So perhaps this is the time she’s visiting. Bad timing.
“Hey Peruru!”
“Hey Jun!” She replied, exiting Sky Gallop. Summoning the other cardbots,
“Hey Jun!! How’s it goin’?!” Red Blitz asked
“I'm a good Blitz! How about you guys?”
“We’re doing ok Jun” Cielo replied
“Jun, is Flame Nova here? I’d like to have a short conversation with him,” Gigantrex shot out
“Oh yeah, but I don’t where he went hehe”
Back to Flame Nova, he was NOT happy about this. Especially hearing that Gigantrex wanted to have a conversation with him, ugh. How annoying.
“How annoying, he’s back.” He mutters to himself, unable to hear the footsteps behind him. As he continues to mutter about whatever he muttered about, he heard a voice call out,
“Flame Nova,” the voice startled him. It was of course Gigantrex, Flame Nova didn’t realize he was already behind him.
“Gigantrex? What do you need?”
“I was wondering if we could have a talk? Just the two of us, follow me.”
“…” he didn't say anything, he followed slowly behind him.
“Hey dad, where are you going?” Red Blitz noticed Gigantrex and Flame Nova,
“Just having a small talk, we won't be long, don't worry.” Gigantrex replied, before transforming into his vehicle mode.
“...” Again, Flame Nova didn't say anything. He just simply follows along. As they drove together, Gigantrex took Flame Nova to a remote place somewhere in the city just so they could talk.
“Do you know the reason I took you here?” Gigantrex transform into his mech form,
“No, enlighten me in this conversation you wanted to talk to me about.” He replied, summoning the rest of himself to transform.
“I’d like to ask, why? Why did you try to steal the core memory of planet machina?” He asked,
“Why’d you ask? For power of course! What else?!” He shouts,
“…why, out of all the things to exist. Why powers..?”
“Simple, to take over the universe..”
“Why, why is taking over everything so important to you Nova..?” He continued to ask, with this gentle and soft spoken voice. Upon hearing his voice, Flame Nova is unable to answer. Gigantrex’s voice made Flame Nova felt something he never felt,
“I-…” he muttered, lowering his guard.
“It’s never too late to change Nova,” Gigantrex slowly approached him, taking Flame Nova’s servo. His spark skipped a beat, his optics flushed red, he didn't know what to do. Why is he doing this to him? Then suddenly
“Flame Nova-” Another voice called out his name,
“Flame Novaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-“ he felt like someone was shaking him up. Then he woke up from his recharge, it was all a dream. It felt so…real…
“Flame Novaaa? ‘You good?” Shadow X calls out, he could see Flame Nova’s optics flushed red.
“I- I’m fine..” he muttered softly, he could feel his processor running faster.
