The video was brought up and it instantly started playing. The first scene of the video was best described as utter chaos, dark skies, fire everywhere, the sounds of what sounded like cannons and guns being blasted, and people engaging in combat. The sound of metal clashing against each other and explosions resounding in a distance were continuous.

The camera which was the point of view from which Mako was viewing the video was constantly moving up and down and turning blurry at moments which indicated that the camera was attached to something or someone and that due to the constant moving, the video was being blurred every two seconds.

Since Mako was viewing the footage so close to his face, it was making him nauseous seeing the video constantly jerk back and forth and blur on different occasions as it combined the sickness one would feel if they had motion sickness while riding a very dangerous roller coaster ride.

By observing the first twenty-two seconds of the video, it was obvious to Mako that the camera was pinned onto a person\'s chest, and he was running through a battlefield for his or her dear life.

After another five seconds, the video suddenly got very close to the ground while approaching what seem to be a small dark opening into a rocky surface.

"I think we will be safe here for a while." The voice of a middle-aged man came from the video as soon as the camera reached the crack or cave inside the rock. Since it was pitch black in there, Mako could only hear the audio for a couple of seconds. Sounds of heavy breathing and a thump were sounded for the time that Mako could only hear audio.

Suddenly the video made glitching and muffled noises, and then suddenly a flashlight was turned on, revealing the face of the person who was running. He indeed was looking like a middle-aged, at the age of about 40-50 years old.

The person had fair skin but at the moment it was covered with filth, dirt, and debris due to running on a battlefield. He had deep wrinkles on his forehead and deep dark circles beneath his eyes.

He had dark green hair which was almost on the verge of being considered black, with a military cadet-looking haircut and a subtle beard. He was currently wearing a white lab coat and very stylish-looking spectacles.

After taking another few long deep breaths he began to speak, "Hello, if you\'re watching this then I am most probably dead, and you have gained access to our life\'s work." The man said in a hurried tone.

"The box that you have opened was the final result of three long decades of research and development that I and my colleagues have put to change the world for the better, but I regret to inform you that we have failed to do so. A colleague within our group was secretly transferring intel to the enemy and planned to give this revolutionary technology to them once we were finished, just so he could have all the money and glory." The man brushed through a few details and quickly explained the current predicament.

After taking another deep breath and trying to calm his nerves, he continued "It is currently the year 2980. We are a private organization under the world leader of the Fallout era, and we had been tasked with creating this technology that will revolutionize the way people gain power by the World Leader himself, but the colleague I mentioned, decided that it would be for his benefit to sell this to the leader of Black Wings."

Another explosion sounded near the cave that the man was hiding in, and all the walls shook due to the intense shockwaves.

"Long story short, Me and three other colleagues not including the traitor just finished the product today, and as per the intelligence provided by the World Leader, we were going to be ambushed in the next thirty minutes, by the black wings so they could steal the device."

"My colleagues remained in the lab as a decoy and delete every ounce of research that we had discovered so it may not fall in the wrong hands. I was tasked with running away with the only completed device."

The man seemed to be exhausted and was losing energy per the minute but he kept talking, "It has been 12 hours since that incident and the Black Wings are still chasing me, so this is my final message to you the owner of this device now; My name is Lionel Grey and I and my friends have entrusted the Universal Power System to you."

"It is a super advanced artificial intelligence system created from the combined knowledge of ten different worlds. We have created this device to raise a warrior that is so powerful that it can bring about peace in our as well as other worlds. You must be one of the descendants of our group as we programmed the box to only respond if a blood sample from one of our bloodlines is to come in contact with it."

"Whether you are a part of the Grey, Lionheart, Beyla, West, Katz, or Khan family, please know that a great responsibility has been issued on your shoulder and we hope that you will make the most of the tools that we have provided you to bring a great era of peace."

As Lionel finished with his statement, the video showed him getting back on his feet as he was about to start moving again. He placed his hand on the camera which showed that he was about to cut the recording, but he suddenly stopped inches away from the camera. Pulling his hand back, tears were visible on his face as he said his final words before the recording finished.

"And to my daughter, Amy Grey; I hope you grow up to become a fine and beautiful woman. The only thing I regret is that I wasn\'t there for you when you needed me the most. I\'m sorry for being a terrible father, and I hope that you can forgive me in your heart. *Sniff* Happy eleventh birthday, Sweetheart!"

[Video Log #003541 Ended]

Tears were rolling down Mako\'s face as he took a few minutes to digest all the information that was given in the seven-minute-long video. Mako had no idea of his family background as he lost his parents to the last war before he had any real memories of them. His grandfather had passed away long before that while his grandmother Amy Grey was the person who raised Mako till he was fourteen years old.

So that would make Lionel Grey his great-grandfather, the one who had constructed this house. Mako never even once imagined that his family had done a huge impact on the world.

As he recalled his great grandfather\'s words that this thing that was inside his head was his great grandfather\'s legacy and he had given the responsibility to Mako to use this great power to change the world, no; the universe to be a better place of peace and kindness.

Mako thought back to his childhood when he would be bullied and treated even worse than regular standards just because he was weak or didn\'t have an ability, but not just him rather this was the same for every person regardless of their age, to be treated in this way.

For the longest time, Mako wanted to change things, and make them better so that every type of person can co-exist in peace and harmony.

Now that the opportunity had presented itself to Mako to do what he always wanted to accomplish, Intense determination started to well up inside him as he voiced out to himself.

"Don\'t worry great grandfather, I vow that I will make your dream a reality, and I will not stop until that goal has been accomplished or I perish trying to do so."

After Mako made that statement, he slowly got back up again and decided to leave the secret room, and move back towards his bathroom from where he came.

Before leaving though, Mako made sure to grab everything that was placed in the little room as he didn\'t know if they were valuable or not, but since they were kept in the same chamber as the system, he decided to think the latter and picked everything before finally making his way back out of the secret passage.

When Mako made his way out of the secret door, he noticed sunlight coming through the bathroom window, which meant that Mako had spent around 10-12 hours in the secret chamber; mostly being knocked out due to the integration of the system inside his body.

His great-grandfather had made such a rushed video that many key details were not mentioned while some were very broadly mentioned which left Mako thinking that there must be some way to access all the other audio or video logs that may be stored inside the system to better understand how it works.

"I can worry about that later, but first I better make some breakfast. My stomach is killing me." Mako voiced out as he decide to put these worries in the back of his head and deal with things one at a time.

Mako quickly washed his face and body as he was covered in dust and dirt from being knocked out in the chamber, and made his way to the kitchen to fix himself a small breakfast, but as soon as he was about to reach for the fridge; he suddenly heard a ping go off in his head.

*PING!*
