In this Episode Gaff, Guardian of the Eon Family and protector of the Fist, is on the run from hired assassin Black Beauty and her team of Robot Ninjas. He narrowly escapes her attack and dumps a wooden box into a cave in the Prohibited Zone, an area controlled by Duke von Rhymer, President of the Iron Tower. The box contains the Fist of Eon. Marty and Buttons enter the Zone later and find a young girl on the run from the Iron Tower security guards. Marty tries to help her escape, but an explosion sends the trio crashing into a deep cave. As Marty and Ally tentatively get to know each other, Buttons looks around for a way out, and stumbles upon the Fist. Eager to impress Ally, Marty attaches the Fist to his arm. The device overwhelms him and sends a brilliant beam of energy through the roof of the cave. For the security guards, it is a beacon locating their prey, but to Black Beauty and Gaff, it means much more -- it means the Fist of Eon has been reactivated after a century of hibernation. The guards give chase. The Fist comes to life as a permanent part of Marty's arm. But Black Beauty and her Ninjas are on high alert, determined to locate the new owner of the legendary Fist. The Eon family is the legendary family that defeated the General. Only Eon, Marty, and his father have been mentioned, but all members are great warriors and martial artists. The General's forces wiped out the family through the years leaving Marty the sole blood heir to the family legacy. Their ancestral home is a huge fortress surrounded by bamboo forest. Underneath the home is the family's ancestral training ground that includes wood training drones and tests to hone the family's martial arts skills. The home has fallen into great disrepair since the death of Marty's father.
