Synopsis for "Legacy, Conclusion"
Jacobson signals for the other werewolves to not interfere with the battle.
Chloe and Mecha-Maid stare in shock. Jacobson signals to the other werewolves not to interfere with the battle between Gary and Elder Brood. Gary asks that he stand aside and Zechariah asks that Gary put aside their difference temporary so they can kill the Elder Brood. An annoyed Elder Brood impales Zechariah, pulls out his heart, and eats it. The results causes Zechariah's skin to decay and he would become a pile of bones.
Zechariah's death by the Elder Brood
Meanwhile in the Pentagon, The Actioneers scream in agony after going a long period of time without blood. However, it is revealed that Zechariah’s death caused them to revert back to Humans. Donald tells Cecil to the good news while he takes his chemical bath.[1]
After Zechariah's death, The Actioneers become Human again.
Elder Brood says that Gary’s friends are safe as long as they don’t interfere with the battle. Gary asks why he’s doing it and what is he worthy of. As the battle continues, Elder Brood reveals that Gary was chosen and that he was following him for years. He also reveals part of his origin as he became corrupted with power. Long ago, there were many Elder Broods and they ruled werewolves and humans alike.
However, he got greedy and slayed all the elders until he remained. Under his control, men grew to hate werewolves and they were hunted down until they went into hiding. Elder Brood would remain in hiding, shamed by his ambition until he came across Gary. He observed him when they were much younger. Seeing that was a good person by his charity, devotion to Rebecca, and his fearlessness. He would follow Gary to New York and learn that he was a man of power, making him unable to be corrupted by greed. From there, he decided to turn Gary into a werewolf.
Gary slits the Elder's throat.
A confused Gary asks why he’s doing this and Elder Brood says that the battle isn’t for them, but rather for the werewolves to see. Elder Brood goes on to say that he wants to die and that he has lived too long, hinting that he has lived for centuries. He asks that Gary give him them a chance at redemption. Elder Brood attempts to suffocate Gary and he demand that Gary fight back. Gary claws Elder Brood’s throat. Elder Brood compliments Gary for doing so. Gary argues that Elder Brood can revert back, but Elder Brood reveals that he’s too old and that doing so would kill him. Before he bleeds to death, he asks that Gary restore the werewolves to their former glory. Jacobson and his werewolves bow to Gary as he is the new Elder Brood.
The group reports to the Pentagon and Gary reveals that he is now their leader. Agent Hunter would have his head reattached with his parent glad that he’s okay. Gary reveals to Cecil his plans of reforming the werewolves into something good.
Mecha-Maid goes to see the Actioneers, glad to see that they aren’t vampires anymore. Cecil pulls Chloe over and shows her a sample of Zechariah’s blood. Chloe thanks her, as her powers were only temporary and it will sustain her for a while.
Gary debuts his new crimefighting team, The Wolf C.O.R.P.S.
Gary goes to Cypress Hill Cemetry to visit Rebecca’s grave, wishing Rebecca was there with them. Chloe interrupts and tells him that people are waiting for them. Chloe and Gary arrive to Jacobson, who is excited to see him. Jacobson regrets obeying the Elder and the house is now a living quarters for the werewolves. Jacobson asks what their next move is and he says “everything” with happiness.
Meanwhile, a silhouette figure talks about his next move and is happy about Elder Brood’s death and Zechariah’s death too. A man bows to him and gives him a wine. The silhouette figure is revealed to Dracula.
A few weeks later, Gary, Gray Wolf, and other werewolves prepare for a mission. He jump out and debuts the Wolf C.O.R.P.S. as crime fighting team. He commands them to attack the Gorggs.

Supporting Characters:
- Elyn
- General
- Chopstix
Synopsis for "Code Blue: Birth of a Hero, Chapter 4 of 4"
The chapter begins with Cade rushing to a wounded Elyn and asking her what happened. She tells him that it was a surprise attack by the Reds just after he left. Cade wants to bring her to a doctor but Elyn tells him that there are no doctors left. There is nobody left. The Reds used atomic weapons and chemicals, everything is poisoned and dead. Their mechs are finishing off all the survivors. She tells him to leave before his exposure to the radiation and poison is too high.
Cade tells her that he is sorry he couldn't save her and jumps back through the portal, which closes behind him. The general approaches Elyn and they drop their blue disguises. He praises her acting skills. She seems to have feelings for Cade and didn't like having to lie to him. The general says that there are other paths back to their world from Earth and Cade would have never stopped looking for it if he didn't believe his world was dead.
Elyn still believes that they could have brought Cade in and told him about Earth and the war and their plan. The general replies that Cade wasn't ready yet. He had two visions. In one both the Red and Blue worlds were destroyed. In the other they were united in peace. And Cade is the key. But his power is still dormant.
The general tells her that the real Red invasion will start soon. Because of their efforts to infiltrate the Blue army he can make sure the war doesn't end in mutual destruction. But the war will still be vicious. He couldn't risk Cade being one of the early casualties. He needs to be safe until he is ready. Earth is the perfect place for him. The frequency difference will trigger an evolution in him. Once he's reached his potential they will bring him home.
On Earth, Cade is back in the alley with the homeless people. He is in mourning for his world. But he snaps out of it when he hears his friend being attacked. He jumps into action to save him.
