In spite of his his desire to help out the would-be Apogees be their own people, Roy got some pretty hostile vibes from Gwen which made contributing on the VIPER front a bit difficult. Probably had something to do with being blamed for introducing tons of complicated concepts to the already-complicated Jen/Gwen relationship with Sielje.
Still, he set up his own security firm, always able to find work in spite of his blatant lack of professionalism and tendency to disregard peoples' names for his own, zany equivalents. He often found himself working alongside the Gloster Foundation and Lenore especially, sometimes even being hired by them. The survivors of World Materials and Erria found employment under him.
But there was also the matter of Beatrice and this SCCF splinter group...
Abducted by agents of the self-declared "Archimedes Group", Beatrice found not a resistance cell that saw her not as a leader, but rather another experiment... or rather "Life Fulcrum".
Committed to discovering the secret of immortality, the Group had broken off from the rest of the SCCF, taking with it every specimen possible that they hoped could let them learn the secrets of life and death and intent on studying and experimenting on them as much as possible.
If you're expecting to hear that Beatrice, now-humbled, realized the error of her ways and somehow escaped and fought for justice, then you'd be disappointed. Beatrice embraced her new lot in life, eager and happy to still contribute towards an "ideal" world.
Rather, it was another Life Fulcrum who raised the alarm and contacted the ESUN with the Group's headquarters, using the subsequent attack to attempt escape in a commandeered Galantine mook. Beatrice would finally be killed in the siege of the facility... in a last stand and a final battle against Roy to give the Archimedes Group's leaders as much time as possible with which to escape with the most dangerous and powerful of the Life Fulcrums still in their custody.
A new battle was set to begin, Roy intent on seeing the Group's plans stopped no matter what they may be. But he wasn't alone. There was another hero to this story; immortal and determined to see the Group pay for their actions even more than Roy.
And her name...
Is LF-00!
Though Roy would often just call her "Miss Meatgrinder" with how often she'd get killed.
