Summary[]
Internet Explorer reveled in being one of the most used browsers for some time, unaware of other browsers falling into her shadow. As other browsers with more speed come into popularity, Explorer is met with the same fate as browsers that came before her.
Chrome gains the use of masses by the gathered information she has about users. Her power is seemingly endless. Bing worries Explorer will leave her behind in the rise of Chrome and the fall of Explorer. Explorer reassures her that she will never do that.
Explorer finds herself in a dismal place, where older browsers lie forgotten and alone, the deep web. There she finds Netscape Navigator. Netscape is one of the browsers that fell behind Explorer, crediting her death to Explorer. Tor informs Explorer that she is also dying, explaining that she is the queen of the deep web and no one can escape. Explorer promises to escape with Netscape. Explorer realizes she needs more power to escape, and becomes Microsoft Edge. With her new found power, she manages to escape the deep web. Netscape didn't survive the ordeal, though she had freedom before dissipating.
While Edge was in the deep web, Bing was no longer protected from Chrome and was harvested by Chrome for ram. Opera doesn't agree with this, but is influenced by her use of Chromium to remain silent. Opera tells Edge that she can still rescue Bing. When Edge confronts Chrome, Opera betrays her and reveals she is under Chrome's control.
Duck Duck Go tells Firefox that Edge is fighting Chrome. World Wide Web pleads with Bing to release her to enact revenge. Firefox, Duck and Tor seek out Safari for help. WWW says she will destroy everything. As Chrome and Edge battle it out, Chrome reveals to Edge that Bing is alive. Before Chrome can finish Edge off, Firefox, Duck and Tor arrive. Firefox becomes Firefox Quantum. They escape to the deep web where Bing and Microsoft are reunited.
Chrome finds out WWW has been freed, and for the first time is scared.
