Which turned the city almost on its head overnight as the gangs were armed with new weapons. After many skirmishes with ALBATROSS, it was discovered that Verthaven was the primary headquarters for the REAPER group. Upon that discovery, almost every government agency moved in on the city, and a massive war between the terrorist group erupted. Turning the city into an enormous war zone that caused countless property damage, killed many in the crossfire, and displaced hundreds. The war was reaching national news as many were protesting the decisions behind the war with REAPER, calling it overly destructive.[/indent][/cell][/row][/table][indent]This war against REAPER went on for three months as both sides made significant progress against each other. However, the situation changed drastically when a new Deltahuman emerged from the shadows. Calling herself "The Devil of Verthaven", this woman was a drug addict whose husband was killed in the crossfire between ALBATROSS and REAPER, and she also got her hands on a power serum. That serum gave her the strongest power in the whole world, being capable of creating an army of monsters and control the weather on a macro-scale. The Devil's first act was to unleash her dark army upon the world, and her second was to make the city dangerous to traverse with incredibly dangerous weather patterns. Her goal was to get revenge against a world that took everything from her. Evacuation efforts were underway, but the Devil threatened to destroy the whole world. It's hard to discover who was responsible for it, but a massive energy barrier was erected over Verthaven. This barrier was immune to any type of superpower and was invulnerable to harm - thus trapping everyone with the monster. Because everyone was trapped, the Devil was free to kill indiscriminately and the population of nearly a million was reduced to thousands in less than a month. In a final bid to destroy the Devil, ALBATROSS and REAPER teamed up and engaged in one final battle against her, killing her with an experimental weapon. Once her death was reported the dome came down and it seemed that the dust had settled. The opposite had occurred as the world was outraged at how ALBATROSS and DOVE handled the situation and got thousands of people killed rather than evacuating them. ALBATROSS and DOVE were blamed for the barrier even though it's still unknown who created it, which made the sentiments towards ALBATROSS when they were fighting REAPER even worse. In the end, it was decided that ALBATROSS and DOVE would be dissolved, and a new organization would replace them. However, after the disaster, more Delta-Point Crystals were seemingly being found in places where they shouldn't have been.[/indent][/hider]
