While flying in the Quentin Mechanics private jet, the news reports a "black hole" destroying everything in its path in Southern Utah.
Quentin orders the plan to turn around. Within hours they are landing outside Science City, Arizona. They pick up Haywire and take a helicopter to intercept the black hole.
Haywire says its sounds like Auggie Carmichael, a mega powerful villain who goes by the name of the End.
The End once fought, and defeated the Mighty Seven. He walked off, too tired to fight anymore. He was then reported as MIA for 8 months.
Haywire says he is going to look to see if Beth Angel, the girl he loves, is truly dead. Haywire says, that once he confirms his suspicions, he will go berserk.
As previously reported, Beth Angel, aka, The Heavenly Body, was murdered by the Candelstick Maker.
Megaforce meets the End two blocks away from Angel's house. They try to reason with him, and decide to let him get to Angel's house as he is not really doing any damage.
When he confirmed that Beth was indeed dead, he said he was going do his job, which is to destroy the world.
Captain Omega looked into the black soul of the End, and saw that he was the living embodiment of entropy, and his only purpose was to destroy. He could not be reasoned with. And for what ever reason, only Beth Angel was able to keep him calm.
The news was there, along with many bystanders. Menlo Park, Quentin's teen rival, was also watching the battle.
Park's driver pulled away before The End erupted in an explosion that wounded hundreds of people, Quentin included.
Singularity found that the End was immune to gravity, but not to mass. So she smashed cars, hydrants, and light poles into the rampaging villain.
Willow, with her tough hide and regeneration, tested the zone of disintegration around the End. She learned she could survive short encounters and took the fight to him mano y mano.
Captain Omega flew and peppered the End with blasts from above.
Omega also saw that other costumed villains were causing explosions and fires all around the town. He learned that they were destroying the evidence of the underground hub below this town. The End provided a great cover for this.
The End proved to be a world class threat, shrugging off the Megaforce's toughest hits. Hit and run from above, while sustained powerblasts from Haywire, and gravity warped projectiles from Singularity eventually wore him down.
The End, grappling with Willow, was finally knocked out. The town was in ruins, with property damage in the tens of millions. Omega, knowing that the End would only start his rampage again, as he is a force of nature, one with a singular purpose, snapped his neck. He then flew off into the night.
Singularity, armor destroyed, and near death, spoke to the press before passing out.
Willow, Haywire, and Singularity were air lifted to Helix for medical attention.
Haywire, having a near death experience, realized that its time to repair his relationship with his long lost father...
