For some reason or another, Apocalypse left this city-center largely intact. His soldiers destroyed all the public transit lines in and out of the city and cratered the suburbs to leave the city core standing on a secluded island. From there they went in, building to building taking prisoners. Every single advanced science research center remaining completely untouched and all of the local workers were forced to continue working - though with a new agenda.<br/>     This city is carefully watched by Apocalypse and one of his most trusted (if Apocalypse ever really could 'trust' anyone) allies was stationed here. Apocalypse had left him there to ensure safe completion of the work and prevent interference from resistance fighters that were able to catch on to his plans. Producing the right technological aids was crucial to his work in Cairo, and Tokyo was the leader in cutting-edge technology. <br/>     There were also whispers of teams being deployed to all of the active volcanoes in the entire Pacific Rim... though as to why Apocalypse was scouting those areas, none could even guess. He had large aspirations and he was trying to accomplish them all while simultaneously stripping the world of all its defenses and important civic and government super-centers. </div>
