Lara and Himori were captured by the leader of the Nexus. They are going to use Himori in order to lure the Shadow attuned beings led by Mercure. Lara and Himori were imprisoned in the same room with Death guarding them. "How are you my dear Lara?" Death asked Lara. "Where are we? Let us go!!" Lara asked. "We're here at our ship, Lara. I would like to thank you for leading us to the shadows. This kid will be useful for us to eradicate the Shadows." Death said. "Let her go, Death. She is too innocent to be a part of this scheme. I know Thalos is after all of the Shadow attuned but Himori deserves to have a happy life." Lara pleaded Death to let Himori go. "I don't care about her life but she is one of the shadows so I have nothing to do about her. It is up to the Nexus." Death answered.
The Nexus is the special force of Zeo in the past to destroy all of the Shadow attuned beings. They are consist of five beings who are capable to extinguish the Shadows. Their leader Hydron, who is the owner of the Hydrogem, which can use water with no limitation and energy cost upon usage. The second member is Magnesia, the owner of the Magmagem. She can use fire without limit and energy cost as well. The third member is Xylian, the owner of the Carbogem, which can use Wind. The second to the last member is Visage, the owner of Irongem, which uses Metal, and Nitro, who is the owner of Nitrogem, which uses Light. They came from the planet Xenodia, which is the home of the strongest gem users. They can outclash the power of the imbalance gems. They are formed by Zeo as his main objective is to eradicate all of the Shadow attuned beings who survived the curse of Zeo. When Zeo was sealed by Thalos and the Baron, they hailed Thalos as the conqueror of Zeo. Thalos' goals are quite similar with Zeo but he is so desperate to gain more power in order to become the strongest being in the universe. They are not aware that Zeo already broke his seal and just watching the show.
"Hahaha! That fool Thalos thought he's the strongest? Haha! Are you kidding me? You'll have your time Thalos. I will use the new Masters of the Titans to kill you for me. Hahaha. You even stole my special force? Let's see if you can beat the new Masters of the Titans. I can't wait for your war to start. Hahaha!" Zeo thought while watching on the sidelines.
Hydron grabbed Himori and she tried to resist with Umbra Burst but she loses a lot of energy after she released it and fainted. Hydron casted the Atlantis Barrier to protect him from Himori's Umbra Burst. He raised Himori while shouting "Come out, come out Shadows! Your Princess is in grave danger!"
One of the shadow attuned beings reported to Mercure that Himori was being captured by their mortal nemesis and he rushed to their location along with Adam and the other Shadow attuned beings.
"Himori!!!!! Papa's coming!" Mercure shouted. Adam noticed the tears of Mercure rolling down on his face. Adam can't even look at him because of sadness.
They arrived on the place and the Nexus are ready to eliminate them all.
"Well, well, well, look who's here? Haha!" I guess it's time to activate the curse now." Hydron and the Nexus activated a machine on their hands, which the curse is placed to kill Shadow attuned beings by their power.
"Release her you bastard!!! If anything bad happened to her, I swear I will destroy all of you!" Mercure warned them.
"Hahahaha! I'm so scared Shadow! Come and get her!" Hydron responded.
All the shadow beings charged to them by transforming into their Shadow Mode. The Nexus team is destroying them by the use of the machine and a lot of the Shadow attuned beings were killed from the battle. Mercure attacked Hydron with his Hyper Umbra Take Over and released an enormous amount of shadow energy through the Holy Umbra Blast, which ignited the body of Hydron. He released Himori and Mercure was able to catch her. Magnesia tried to attack him with the Magma Igniter Spell but Adam was able to block the attack by using the Flame Element Rejection curse. "Thank you very much Adam!". Mercure appreciated Adam's help. "Thank me after this is over." Adam replied. The war between the Nexus and the Shadow attuned beings is getting more and more vicious. The Nexus team is winning the war because of the cursed machine made by Zeo.
"Hmmm. I didn't know they were hiding in here but gladly my special team is really good." Zeo thought while watching.
Death came out and ask Hydron, "Need help?"
"Just focus on your mission. We can handle this." Hydron responded.
There are only shadow attuned beings standing left and they are Mercure and Adam. They were already exhausted but the Nexus team still has a lot of energy left in them.
"Any last words Shadows?" Hydron asked them.
"I think this is the end, Mercure. I'm really glad to fight alongside you until our last breath." Adam said to Mercure.
"I think it is much more interesting if I'll kill the child first before her father. Haha!" Hydron said. He activated his machine and casted the Super HydraBeam right straight into the unconscious body of Himori.
"Nooooooooooooooo!!!!!" Mercure shouted while using his last ounce of strength to cover Himori. He successfully protected his daughter. Adam shouted after the Beam hit Mercure. He was devastated after witnessing how Mercure protected his daughter, Himori. Adam dropped to his knees and tears won't stop falling from his face.
"Mercure!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Adam yelled in too much sadness. Himori woke up and discovered her father is covering her. "Papa? Papa?" Himori said. "It's..... great that.... you are..... okay..... my dear. Papa.... loves you so much..... You must live your life..... freely.... Papa will be with you always..... My dear.... I..... LOVE..... YOU...." Mercure said to Himori before dying.
"Papaaaaaaaa!!!!! Nooooooo!!" Himori cried in anger and she released one of the Glorious Shadow Mode.
"You will pay for killing my father!!!" Himori is raged with so much anger in her devastated heart.
