Marvel: The Tokyo Avengers

Chapter 60: EPISODE 60 — “HEARTBEAT BLADE”



"You want to erase me? Then try touching my pulse."

Previously:

Red Claw, a rogue Weapon X hunter, began hunting the Tokyo Avengers, aiming to absorb and erase them through bio-data imprinting.

After testing Kuro and Xylo, he now targets Starwave, hoping to silence her rhythm. But this time, he's walking into a trap... and a duet of fury.

🎬 [ACT I — Tuning the Trap]

Scene: Rooftop Studio — Midnight, Rainlight Glow

Starwave calibrates her resonance boots beside a glowing wall of speakers and spell-tech emitters. Each stomp of her heel sends out a perfect ripple of controlled frequency.

Heartlight leans against the balcony rail, pink wings folded behind him, arms crossed.

HEARTLIGHT:

"You sure about this?"

STARWAVE:

"I've been hunted before. But this time, he's the one walking into my tempo."

HEARTLIGHT (grins):

"Just don't make him fall in love."

She winks, checking her mic-headset. In the distance, Scarlet Onna's charms begin to activate around the Tokyo Dome.

🎬 [ACT II — The Beat Begins]

Scene: Tokyo Dome – Empty Arena, Spell-Sealed

Scarlet Onna, Nekoburst, Onmyo Flare, and Kuro Ōkami monitor hidden perimeter seals. It's a fake concert — no crowd, only illusions and war-grade sound emitters.

Xylo kneels behind the stage curtain, fingers brushing the floor. He stares at his palms — calloused, tense, lethal.

XYLO (quietly):

"He copies with vision. Then he kills with understanding."

KURO (to him):

"Then we blur what he sees."

🎬 [ACT III — Red Claw Descends]

Scene: Center Stage – Lights Flicker On

Starwave emerges under blinding pink and white spotlights, battle heels pulsing with sound.

Her first stomp — BOOM. A sonic ring bursts across the stage.

STARWAVE (into mic):

"Tonight's song is called: 'Don't Touch Me.'"

Red Claw drops into the arena like a falling star — cloaked in red armor, claws twitching like antennae.

RED CLAW (scanning):

"Vocal resonance. Boot structure. Neural sync: captured."

She dashes in and spins into a triple tempo kick. Her heels fire off sharp sonic bursts — they cut air like knives. Red Claw blocks the third with his armored forearm.

RED CLAW:

"Frequency decoded. Speed indexed."

STARWAVE:

"Cool. Try dancing to it."

🎬 [ACT IV — Hand-Cut Heaven]

Red Claw charges. Just as he swings, a streak of white blurs behind him —

Xylo enters the fight — no weapons, just bare slicing hands.

He slides low and slashes upward with his open palm, carving through Red Claw's armor like paper. A visible arc of glowing pressure trails behind the cut.

XYLO:

"That armor's fake. You're soft underneath."

Red Claw turns fast — claws outstretched — but Xylo vanishes into a flip and slices down again with both hands, creating an X-shaped wound across the air, slamming Red Claw back.

RED CLAW (system glitching):

"Hands… weaponless… pressure type… untraceable!"

STARWAVE (airborne):

"Now you're out of sync!"

She lands beside Xylo. They lock eyes. Then—

XYLO:

"Tempo slash pattern: five-step echo."

STARWAVE:

"Rhythm: double burst wave."

They move.

Starwave heel-kicks the air, sending twin sonic circles that distort gravity.

Xylo bounces between them, using the sound rings as springboards — his hands tearing through air, cutting afterimages into the stage floor.

Red Claw tries to analyze — but the data corrupts.

RED CLAW:

"UNREADABLE—UNTRACKABLE—"

STARWAVE (spinning midair):

"Here's your final drop!"

She heel-strikes the ground with a charged stomp. A massive pulse explodes outward, amplified by the entire arena's seal system.

Xylo lands beside her, slicing both palms downward — the air itself cracks.

The shockwave and pressure slash shatter Red Claw's suit, flinging him through five barrier walls.

🎬 [ACT V — Silence Falls, Then Applause]

As the dust settles, Red Claw is gone. Self-teleported. His data extraction systems fried.

Starwave lands, panting.

STARWAVE:

"Told you. You can't cut the beat."

Heartlight rushes in, catching her by the wrist.

HEARTLIGHT:

"That was… ridiculously hot."

STARWAVE:

"You're ridiculously late."

They both laugh, glowing pink and gold.

Nearby, Xylo walks alone, flexing his fingers as his gloves crumble.

Kuro approaches him.

KURO:

"You didn't hold back."

XYLO:

"I never do."

🌀 ENDING SCENE – Red Claw's New Plan

In a dark base, Red Claw kneels before a screen filled with corrupted battle data.

A shadowy voice speaks:

???:

"You failed to copy them?"

RED CLAW:

"No. I failed to understand them."

???:

"Then perhaps… we'll corrupt them instead."

[An X-Men logo flashes in red.]
