After having his PC data heavily damaged by Corbenik's "Rebirth", Haseo finds himself stranded on the outer fringes of "The World's" systems. He is rescued by Zelkova who brings him to his base, Net Slum Tartarga. There Zelkova uses his skill as a hacker to repair Haseo's PC Body. While recovering, Haseo is approached by his Avatar; Skeith. Skeith accuses him of becoming soft, and prepares to abandon him, but Haseo manages to convince Skeith to stay. With Zelkova's help Skeith integrates himself into Haseo's PC Body, creating his Xth form.
