Marvel: The Tokyo Avengers

🔺 "Some villains don't want control. They want an ending."

❗ Previously on Tokyo Avengers:

Nullbloom has been erased — a conceptual void defeated by the team's united strike.

But her collapse wasn't the end... it was the signal.

Something ancient… and planned... awakens.

[PROLOGUE – In the Blood Moon's Shadow]

In the countryside outside Tokyo, among forgotten crimson ruins, a man kneels inside a shrine of woven skin.

Black cloak. Crimson gloves. Half his face is cracked marble.

He hums in silence — a prayer made of silence.

His name is:

BLOOD SERAPHIM

A former cultist of Chthon. An alchemist of sacred annihilation.

He doesn't seek domination — only finality.

BLOOD SERAPHIM (to himself):

"You tore down a bloom that never lived. Now, I will grow one that cannot die.

And it will be red."

He stands, placing a bleeding crystal into the shrine.

A tower erupts from the earth — made of cursed bloodglass.

[Scene 1 – Break Academy Senses the Rift]

Inside the command room, the Avengers are recovering when the entire city shudders.

A glyph alarm pulses red-hot.

ONMYO FLARE (reading the runes):

"A new structure has appeared… and it's alive."

A 40-story tower now stands in Tokyo Bay.

Its surface writhes. Windows blink like eyes.

Anyone who looks too long begins coughing up red mist.

[Scene 2 – SHIELD Briefing: Nick Fury Returns]

Nick Fury arrives via stealth glider.

FURY (firm):

"We've been tracking this lunatic. His name's Blood Seraphim.

Magic extremist. Purist. Believes Earth has strayed too far from sacred pain."

He places a crimson shard on the table. It whispers when it hits the metal.

FURY:

"That came out of a SHIELD agent's neck. He's growing an altar… powered by regret."

SCARLET ONNA (shaken):

"That aura… It's identical to the forbidden stitching magic of the Crimson Needle Sect."

The tower is connected to her bloodline.

[Scene 3 – Infiltration Attempt: The Tower Rejects Them]

The team flies in using spectral gliders. As they reach the tower's entrance:

The front wall opens like a mouth, then closes.

Their weapons begin to bleed.

Starwave's heels crack.

Kuro Ōkami vomits smoke.

Scarlet Onna's threads snap themselves.

BLOOD SERAPHIM (voice echoing from the tower):

"You're not the protagonists here.

This world ends not with silence — but with staining."

The team is blown away in a single pulse.

[Scene 4 – Recovery and Breakdown]

Back at the Academy:

NEKOBURST (fur bristling):

"I've been hit by monsters, clones, even magic voids. But that thing hurt my soul."

KURO ŌKAMI (growling):

"He made me see the moon crack. I've never seen the moon crack."

STARWAVE (sitting quietly):

"He spoke to me. Not with words. Just a sound I never want to hear again."

SCARLET ONNA (in shock):

"That tower… uses forbidden blood. From my mother's sect."

She reveals what she never told them — her family once served a group called the Crimson Needle, a magical cult who used threadcraft not to protect… but to pierce gods.

Blood Seraphim is one of them.

Worse — he was the one who burned her temple.

[Scene 5 – The Tower Grows]

News reports show:

The tower emits waves that cause nosebleeds in a 3-mile radius.

Children begin drawing red eyes in their notebooks.

A giant red kanji appears in the sky over Tokyo:

"終" (End)

[Scene 6 – Fury's Final Directive]

Nick Fury convenes the five:

"This ain't a vanishing act anymore. This is apocalypse theater."

"You five are the only line left. SHIELD can't even stand near it without bleeding from the lungs."

"You'll have to climb that tower. Floor by floor. Trap by trap. Until you reach him."

They don't hesitate.

ONMYO FLARE:

"We go at dawn."

[FINAL SCENE – The Tower Opens]

As night falls, the Scarlet Tower opens like a flower.

Blood Seraphim steps to the edge of the top floor, eyes like broken glass.

He whispers:

"Tokyo... will become a new altar.

And the Avengers? You will be unthreaded."

Below, the Avengers gather — faces hardened. No jokes. No hesitation.

And in Scarlet Onna's hands... her needles tremble. Not from fear.

From fury.
