Prologue

Back From the Dead, and Mad as Hell

Nine Months Ago, fifteen minutes after the Liberation of the Azure Flux...

Cailus Foxmoore woke up as his body fell from the incubation tube, spilling it’s contents all over the floor. He opened his eyes after coughing up the fluid in his lungs, seeing that he was inside the hidden lab of Shadewoods Manor on Tarion III. What was he doing here? What happened?

His memory then rushed back to him! He was fighting his brother Ryan, aka Egad Nob on the Azure Flux train! He had been shot, by his own son! He fell off the front of the train, right onto the tracks…

Cailus grit his teeth in anger, quickly dawning some simple apparel of khaki pants, a white shirt, and a tan sports overcoat after drying off with a towel. He grabbed a spare phone and walked out of the lab through the secret wall panel into the manor, quickly turning it on and activating his contingency accounts and protocols for some of his secret stocks. He walked on his way to the vehicle garage to procure his chosen vehicle to take him to his safe house: A Hydrogen-2 retrofitted Ferrari F-355 F1 Type H T-Top in Testa Rossa Red.

After stepping into the garage, he was surprised to see one of his butlers, Godfrey pacing in the garage.

“Godfrey! What are you doing in here?!” Cailus barked.

Godfrey’s skeleton nearly jumped out of it’s skin! “Oh! Oh my god! M-m-master Cailus! A thousand pardons sir, but… How are you alive?! Anthony told me over the phone that you were run over by the train-”

“I’ll explain later, Godfrey! Right now, I require your services at my side!” Cailus growled. “I’ve activated Contingency: End Run, and I will need assistance. You are still in my service, after all, and I will need help rebuilding since Anthony has now inherited all my public companies and trusts since I have “Died.” Now, will you care to join me in the Ferrari?”

Godfrey didn’t ask questions or argue. He opened up the driver’s side door for Cailus, then jumped into the passenger seat.
