Dynasty City. A giant megalopolis that encompasses all of the continent. There are no more nations to speak of. Awesome Land, Really Cool Land, Fun Land, Groovy Land - all consumed. Even the islands of Veraland and Ausum Land were gobbled up 200 years ago. One city, from sea to shining sea, and beyond.
In the void left by the fall of royalty, corporations arose to take their places, based around the control of energy for the city. the largest, and most powerful is the Dynasty Electric Power Corporation. They have a virtual monopoly over crystal energy for Dynasty City, with 99.99% control.
Fed up with their rediculous prices, smaller companies have banded together to fight the tyranny of Dynasty Power. This is their story...
BOOM! the front of a building exploded, sending fragments of glass and metal lying out into the street. The building was (formerly) a hangout of DEPCo bigwigs. A single figure ambled out of the wreckage.
"MAX POWER!" The tall man screamed, which was odd, considering it was his own name. He used his Power Glove and hurled a car at the gathering crowd of soldiers. "MAX POWER!" he yelled again.
Then he reached into his Power Sack and produced his Power Sword, and proceeded to rush the soldiers, screaming and swinging wildly. Eventually, they ran off, frightened by the obviously insane man with a weapon.
Satisfied, Max Power returned his Power item to his Power Sack and walked off in the other direction. "Go, go Max Power!" he sang softly.

Glitch waded through the streets looking for scum to incarcerate. After about twenty minutes of searching, he found a man swinging a sword around violently. "Attention criminal! Please halt!"

"Who, me?" Max Power demanded. He hadn't even noticed he was still swinging the Power Sword. "I thought I put you away..." Creepy.

"Hand over your weapons and get on the ground." Glitch could tell that he would have to haul this guy to the Happy Land Insanosorium, just from the look on his face.

"Uh...how 'bout no?" He stuffed the Power Sword back into the Power Sack. "I don't know who you are, pal, but...that's some pretty snazzy armor."

On the rooftops above, Asher was watching the exchange with an amused grin, an unlit cigarette hanging from the corner of his mouth. "Well...this should be interesting.

"Whatever," Max shrugged, "This isn't going well. SO..." he reached into his Power Sack, and pulled out his Power Glove again. He then punched Glitch in the...face?

Glitch's visor absorbed most of the blow. He responded with a punch of his own... to Max's gut. OW!

"Good thing I was wearing my Power Undies!" Max lowered his pants to show the cyborg his titanium boxers. "Why are you hitting me anyway?"

Glitch decided to follow up with a punch to Max's face.

"Attention all employees of the Marketing Sector: Prices for our energy are now increased by 5%. Each of you is to make me a clever commercial that can be shown to the populace to relieve them of this harsh fact. The person who creates the best advertisement will win free energy for a year!" rang Nathan's voice through the intercom system.
Downstairs in the Marketing offices, thousands of voices screamed and papers shuffled, signaling their hard work. It was clear that they wanted the free energy above anything else in the world.
Nathan turned off the intercom and laughed. "That'll keep them off my back for a while. Now I can leave the building in peace." Nathan took the elevator down from the massive 9002 story DEPCo Headquarters, which had actually been built upon the thrice ruined ruins of Leon Veralice's original tower. "I really don't see why the old man had to make it so tall." Nathan muttered as he approached the 1st floor. The doors opened and he walked out of the elevator. "Good. The floor is clear. Not even the janitor is here. I'll have him fired later." Nathan was about to walk outside of the store when...
"Nathan! Nathan! He's the best! He is better than the rest!" "Nathan! Nathan! He's our man! If he can't do it, no one can!"
His 5 cheerleaders jumped down from the 9001st floor where they had been hiding all the way onto the first floor in front of Nathan, completely unharmed due to their unholy agility. This was, of course, nothing new; his cheerleaders were generally the only ones allowed to accompany him on his non business related travels.
"Thank you, ladies." Nathan smiled and put his arms around two of them. The two began to giggle uncontrollably while the other three frowned. "Easy now, ladies. There's enough Nathan for everyone. Let's go for a walk, shall we?" Nathan told them. They all giggled and exited the DEPCo HQ for an evening out.

Now Asher was getting pissed off. Was this supposed to be a fight? It looked more like a schoolyard fight between kindergarteners. He scoffed and stood to leave. "Fuck this..."
he muttered. He jumped to the next building...and then noticed something interesting. It was a DEPCo guy. But not just any DEPCo guy, this guy had cheerleaders. Asher smirked. "Well well, what's the head of DEPCo doing out here?"
.............................
"With cheer leaders?"

Glitch eventually started to repeatedly punch him in the face "You are in direct violation of code: 234 destruction of private property!"

"What? No way, man. That place belonged to those DEPCo. guys. They basically stole the money from the people of this city to pay for it." He heard the squad of cheerleaders approach. "In fact...that's the jerk in charge right there!" He donned a second Power Glove and rushed off to punch Nathan in the face.

Glitch didn't stop him. He bore no love for Nathan either.
Glitch then decided to go towards the senate building, to check on an old friend.
*wink wink*

((its 200 years after ALIV and has no connection to the previous incarnation of Dynasty, except in name. I HAD no plans for a senate, since DEPCo basically controls everything))

"Hey! Mister Corporation-take-your-money-man!" Max yelled. "I'm gonna punch you in the face!"

"Mmm, don't really think that's a good idea." Nathan chuckled. He pressed a button on the belt he wore with his suit and a forcefield of energy was projected around him, deflecting the would-be assailant. He turned to Asher and said "Ha, just thought I'd go out for a stroll."
"Nathan! Nathan! He's so cool! That poor rock star is a fool!" the cheerleaders giggled.
