Marvel: The Tokyo Avengers

Chapter 39: EPISODE 39: “Scarlet Resurrection”



🔺 "Tokyo isn't dying. It's being reborn."

❗ Previously:

The team was scattered by the collapse of the Scarlet Tower and forced to face hallucinations of their pasts.

Now reunited by Scarlet Onna's blood-drawn thread spell, the Avengers prepare to face the next wave.

But something has changed in Tokyo: the buildings have eyes. The streets breathe. The rituals are waking up.

[Scene 1 – A Cursed Reunion]

The Tokyo Avengers regroup in the middle of a warped Shinjuku intersection.

Everything is bent — buildings curve toward them like thorns, windows filled with threaded eyes.

The sky bleeds.

Street signs now display single words:

"BLOOM."

"VOW."

"OBEY."

STARWAVE (shaking off blood):

"This whole city's turned into a remix of nightmares."

ONMYO FLARE:

"No more floors. No more illusions. Tokyo is the altar now."

The team forms a defensive circle. A sound echoes — marching.

[Scene 2 – The Threadsworn Rise]

Dozens of civilians walk toward them… stiffly. Mechanically.

Each one wearing a red sash across their mouths — the Threadsworn, Blood Seraphim's new cult-army.

Some carry glowing ritual weapons. Others simply whisper.

"The tower was just the seed.

The city is the flower."

A horde rushes forward — the first real battle in Tokyo proper begins.

🔥 COMBAT SEQUENCE: TOKYO AVENGERS VS. THE THREADSWORN

NEKOBURST vanishes in short bursts between enemies, striking ankles and knees, disabling speed.

KURO ŌKAMI lets loose a full Wolf Claw Cyclone, tearing apart the first wave in a blur of glowing fang-strikes.

STARWAVE uses Tempo Scream, a wide sonic shockwave that knocks cultists into windows and poles.

SCARLET ONNA launches enchanted needles that bind limbs to the ground, freezing them mid-lunge.

ONMYO FLARE conjures a Five-Point Flame Seal, erupting like a pentagram from the ground.

ONMYO FLARE:

"Don't kill them. They're still… human."

SCARLET ONNA (coldly):

"Not if they volunteered."

[Scene 3 – The Return of Mystique]

As the last cultist falls, a new voice calls out:

"How cute. Children pretending they own the city."

MYSTIQUE walks forward — wearing a black suit layered with scarlet armor accents, her body partially rewritten by Seraphim's curse.

"He gave me more than disguise. He gave me rebirth.

You saved Tokyo once. Now you'll burn with it."

She throws a black thread orb — and vanishes in a ripple of smoke.

Suddenly, six bodies rise from the buildings around them.

Each one is twisted, stylized, monstrous — and modeled after the Avengers themselves.

A beast-wolf with metal claws and no soul.

A cursed shrine maiden with thorn-thread limbs.

A blade-wielding oni wearing Onmyo Flare's mask.

A pop star made of cracked porcelain with echoing screams.

A feral Nekoburst with eight tails.

STARWAVE (dryly):

"Oh great. Fanfiction clones again."

KURO ŌKAMI (growling):

"No. They're not clones.

They're seraphim echoes. Pieces of us trapped in the ritual."

[Scene 4 – The Scarlet Baptism Begins]

As the monsters prepare to strike, Blood Seraphim's voice returns — not from the sky…

…but from the city's shadows.

BLOOD SERAPHIM (voice):

"I gave Tokyo back its gods.

You were never Avengers. You were just threads waiting to be cut."

Lightning crackles through the clouds — and a gigantic red lotus blooms across the city skyline.

[Final Scene – Countdown to Bloom]

From the center of Tokyo Tower, a spiral of red magic erupts — a countdown glyph appears in the sky:

"🩸 24 HOURS UNTIL FINAL BLOOM 🩸"

SCARLET ONNA (quietly):

"If that spell completes… he won't need a tower.

He'll become Tokyo."

🎴 [END CARD – TOKYO AVENGERS]

EPISODE 39: "Scarlet Resurrection" — END

🩸 Next: Episode 40 – "The 24-Hour Curse"

One day left. The team must find the root of the spell.

Or Tokyo will bloom into something unrecognizable forever.
