'''''The Aurum Hive''''' is the sixteenth chapter in the storyline of ''[[Kid Icarus: Uprising]]'', which continues the three-part Aurum story arc and has [[Pit]] infiltrating the dangerous Aurum Hive. Unlike the previous chapter, [[Pyrrhon]] is hardly present until the mission’s boss battle, while the [[Underworld Army]] and [[Forces of Nature]] help Pit along the way.

The boss of this chapter is the large [[Aurum Generator]] that provides all power to the Hive. It is unique in that it has Pit riding along three cords that surround the structure, using them like Grind Rails. He is able to switch between these cords in areas where they are close together. Although completely immobile, the Generator has multiple defensive shields that deflect projectiles, as well as numerous drones that attempt to shoot Pit off the rails. Halfway through the battle, Pyrrhon flies in and attempts to fry the Generator with a fire attack, but unintentionally adds more power to it instead. Embarrassed at the situation, he hastily wishes Pit good luck and flies away. With the added power, the Generator now begins to spawn electrical barriers that it places over certain rails, making switching between them a greater priority.

Halfway through the battle, Pyrrhon flies in and attempts to fry the Generator with a fire attack, but unintentionally adds more power to it instead. Embarrassed at the situation, he hastily wishes Pit good luck and flies away. With the added power, the Generator now begins to spawn electrical barriers that it places over certain rails, making switching between them a greater priority. Also, the Generator now begins to spit out fireballs, but the shots are woefully inaccurate and will rarely hit unless Pit is directly in front of it. Overall, this is one of the easier bosses in the game, and as long as Pit switches grind rails when necessary, the Generator will be destroyed with relative ease.
 
===Attacks===
* '''Barriers:''' The Generator is surrounded by defensive shields that reflect Pit's shots.
* '''Electric Orbs:''' When powered up, it will spawn electrified barriers on random Grind Rails.
* '''Tribytes:''' Large Tribytes float around the Generator to defend it.
* '''Fireball:''' The Generator's only direct attack when powered up. It will occasionally spit out a fireball at Pit.

*An optional conversation that occurs if Pit rides the left grind rail reveals that Viridi has a soft spot for Pit.

*This is the only chapter were Hades helps Pit by allowing him to enter the Aurum Hive.
*This is in fact the only chapter in the game where Hades actually helps Pit by allowing him to enter the Aurum Hive.
*During the flying sequence when Pit is being attacked by Aurum ships, Palutena incorrectly states that the Aurum have sent a Destroyer to stop him, the ships that are attacking Pit are actually Cruisers. This may have been a mistake in the scripting for the dialogue.
