Station Square - Time: 12:14 PM
April 4, 3543

"Are you sure you're alright Ken?" Someone asked, with the one with the said name, a Brown hedgehog with a Grey arrow-like marking on the top quill, having smaller quills under his normal ones, Dark Blue eyes, Black glasses, a Brown and Grey shirt, a Black one armed backpack with a Red circle on the top piece, Blue scarf with a Silver necklace, sports tape on both ankles and forearms, Black pants with his Grey arrow symbol on it along with chains, Black and Grey shoes, a ring through his ear, and had White gloves with the palms being Black and wearing a Gold ring on his middle finger. He looked at her and nodded.

"Yeah, I'm fine. I guess it's just something in my head is all." He said with a smile and nodded. "Anyway, let's get a move on. Our party can't start without us." They nodded with a smile and walked off, plus with Ken, but not before looking at the sky. "...I don't know who you are in my mind...Or do I know if we met...But know that...I never forgot...Nor will I forget ever..." He looked back at the group to see them waving toward him, making him smile and begun to catch up until he suddenly stopped to see something happening before them; The sky was starting to get darker and take the color of a Sinister Blue.

By all of this happening, they all looked around. "W-What's happening?" Edge, a Red cat that wore Black and Grey clothing, asked in worry, then looked at Gemstone, a Green hedgehog that wore a Grey T-shirt, Black skirt, boots, and gloves. "G-Gemmy? I'm scared...What's happening?"

"I...I don't know..." She looks at Yune, a Grey hedgehog with Green eyes, wore a Black hoodie, Khaki jeans, and boots. Not only was she their friend, but also the Brown hero's twin sister. "W-What's even going on?"

"Both times and histories have intersected...Creating something that is not meant to exist. And all of Chaos, Darkness, and Time has come together." A voice called, making everyone look to see the source of it; A sixteen year old human girl with Dark Blue hair, Green eyes, a headdress with a veil, and wears a White shirt and skirt, multiple bracelets, and Yellow boots. "Both are always to be split apart to prevent a paradox and destruction...It has split many times caused it to be stretched thinner and thinner. However, due to your riddance of Paragon, it was the final action to cause this."

Hearing that name confused the Hazel one. "Paragon? Who's he? I don't know what you're talking about!"

He was given his answer by a sudden pain in his head, causing him to fall over along with everyone else. "When history changes, it created alternate routes. Because of it coming together, it clashes with all changed timelines, all memories of those events return and become one with time...Which is something to never happen."

He just screamed in pain until something appeared into his brain; All of the events that occurred throughout the entire adventure. Paragon, entering Fabula Nova, and even meeting two people along the way; Oerba Dia Vanille and Oerba Yun Fang. He remembered everything now, memories that wasn't suppose to exist into his mind after the timeline change. "I...I don't understand! I thought it was over! I thought EVERYTHING was over!"

All the small cat could do was shake his head. "I-I was going to kill Ken?! B-But how can I?!"

"All worlds and universes have now together...Including the Crystsallis...This will soon destroy this world. All souls that was meant to age will end soon, along with those that were dead returning, and the times of all timelines crossing over."

Stone, a Light Grey Hedgehog with the same colored eyes, wearing a Black full-body armor with his gauntlets installed looked at her. "Just...Who are you exactly?"

She looks down sadly while fading away into Darkness. "I am one that is not suppose to exist in this time, like you are after the battles of Paragon. Except...I'm not suppose to know of the legends of the Brown hedgehog that saved their lives...I...Am just a shadow of the past that was not meant to exist. We will meet again soon...Brown hedgehog."

She fades away, leaving them. "Hey! Wait!" The older former L'Cie ran over to where she stood, but was too late to stop her, then looked at his hands. "What...What did I do? What did...We do?"

"So...This is what it looks like...The end of the world." Yune states. "Something...Something that wasn't suppose to happen caused this."

He grips his fists. "Paragon...I bet he wanted this...Didn't he? Summon Busiris so we can stop it and rid of him...So that he can cause the final hit on everything..." He shakes his head, with his quills swinging around at the same time. "You wanted this...Didn't you?" Dark Blue Rips from within the sky then started to form, with spirits of darkness then leaking out along with the darkest of souls and large Purple golems, lizards, worms, and bat-like beings that resembling the ones that Mephilies created. "Is...That them?"

By seeing them, the Grey hedgehog quickly activated his gauntlets, creating Purple energy blades. "Now is not the time to be saddened by the actions of the past! We must quickly fight back!" He rushed toward one of the beasts that appeared, cutting and slashing many of them. "Son of Hamon! Fight back if you wish to survive this! Because if you die along with everyone else, your adventures and fights up until now will mean nothing!"

All the hedgehog could do was just stare at the sky and listened to what his friend had said, giving him enough will to take out the chains from his pants. "He's right...I won't make everything be for nothing now! Especially with..." He looks at Gemstone. "Gem, get Ariel and both her and Edge somewhere safe! Me, Yune, and Stone will take care of them until you come back!"

"Right!" She grabs the small ones hand. "Come on! Let's get to her!"

Before he could even move, he looks at the Dark Chocolate furred hero. "Ken? Is...Did I really try to-"

All he did as a response was look back at him with a small smile, then padded his head. "...I'll see you later. I'll be fine, and nobody will leave you...Not again." He rubs it a bit and then looks at her. "Now go!" She nods and runs off, with Edge just accepting it. Feeling relieved that they'll be ok, he walks next to his twin and friend. "Let's do this!"

"Right!" He says back.

"Yeah!"

At that moment, they all quickly split towards different directions, attacking what they could within a certain group of the monsters. With Ken, he did quick Homing Attacks toward the bat-like creatures to knock them out, landed on the ground to skid under the lizards and dashed through through their chests, splitting them in half before the ones he attacked turned into darkness. However, unknown to him, multiple worms then rose up from the ground and sent him into the air along with any of the debris and parts of the buildings nearby. Reacting quickly, he saw one of the destroyed poles that helped support it, grabbed it, and quickly twirled it over his head before slamming it down onto one of them, destroying it, then swung it around to destroy more.

Upon completing this, he smiled a bit at his weapon. "Gotta thank Fang for giving me an idea of doing this!" All that was left was the golem, with him looking at it with a small smirk, but it quickly faded away by it doing that shocked him; It started creating a large ball of clustered pieces of remains, then it threw it at the running Ariel, an old Red fox that was starting to Grey, Gemstone, and Edge. Doing this put his mind into nothing but flashbacks, remembering on how the three of them died due to what Paragon planned with Titan. "No...No! Not AGAIN!" Using as much of his speed as possible, he quickly ran to them as fast as he could and pushed them out of the way, taking their place.

"NO!" The Green Mobian yelled loudly.

Hearing her made both of the Grey hedgehogs stop to look what was going on, shocking them. "KEN!/SON OF HAMON!"

All he could was just stare at the object that was heading near him, scared, but somewhat glad. Instead of them dying, he was the one to take the hit, knowing they wouldn't get hurt. But just before he got hit, his right forearm started glowing in a bright color.

His eyes shot wide, looking around to see he was in some sort area filled with nothing but Black. "Where...Where am I?" He only wondered on where he went, but his attention was caught onto three orbs of light floating by him that consisted of Dark Blue, Yellow, and Red, each one of them, for some reason, felt special. "What...Are these things?"

"Welcome to the world between life and death, my child." A female voice said, revealing to be the Yellow one.

"A world between...Then, am I dead?"

"No, far from it. You have been called upon...By the gods themselves. I am Etro, the goddess of death."

"I am Lindzei...The Cocoon Fal'Cie god." The other one, a male, said.

"And I am...Pulse, the true Pulse Fal'Cie."

Those two names hit him greatly. "Pulse and...Cocoon..." His eyes widened. "I know you two now...You created the Fal'Cie, especially the Sanctum, the ones who created Paragon. And Etro...I remember you from a tour I took when I first arrived in Nova...You're a... Goddess of Death."

"Yes, that is correct young one. You truly are smart." The Cocoon god, the Blue Orb, says. "But...It appears that as of now that due to him, the times have now fallen into each other, becoming a world that was not meant to exist. Though...I am sure the girl you have encountered, Yuel, has told you of this?"

"That was her name?"

"Yes, a girl given by the powers of Etro to find the chosen warrior that stopped her lost other; Busiris, the one who was banished and chained by Bhunivelze, the God of Light." The Pulse lord, the Red Orb, states. "Though now, due to this fall, her purpose to tell you of this has now been fulfilled. We have found the one who might be capable of saving those who will suffer."

This made him worried. "Those who will suffer? What do you mean by that?"

"Time has finally stopped for all worlds, and the day of no aging has yet to begin." The Goddess of Death explained. "When it happens, age will no longer exist and all of those who were suppose to die or to be shackled by their eternal chains will come back from their resting place that is Darkness; Including enemies you've once defeated."

He knew what she meant by that; Enemies like Paragon, Mephilies the Dark, and more importantly, Xiran. "But...What is it you want me to do then? There's gotta be a reason I'm here."

"Indeed you are right young Mobian, for I believe we may believe you are the one to set this wrong right. Rest within the place where your adventure started, and only then will you know of what your role is."

At that moment, his right forearm glowed brightly, creating a brand on it.

His eyes quickly shot out and looked at his glowing forearm, and by pure instinct, he aims it toward the large ball. "RUINGA!" He throws a ball of Black energy in a White outline towards it, destroying it and sending him backwards hurt, but also alive.

"Are you alright?!" A voice asked, with him looking to see it was Gemstone's.

He nods. "Yeah, I'm...I'm fine." He slowly looks at what was glowing, seeing it was under his sports tape. So, he removes enough of it to see what was under it; A Black circular marking that held multiple spikes coming out. He wasn't sure on what it was, but one thing was for sure: This wasn't the mark of a L'Cie, far from it. "What...Is this?"

"The symbol of the gods...Something only to be given when chosen by them..." Stone explains to them, given a few looks of confusion. "I was put into the world of Fabula Nova Chrystallis for ten years and four months...I know of everything in this newly made world. They are chosen for a reason, and when they were, they were taken to see them in any way or form." He looks at the Brown furred hero. "Son of Hamon, tell me this; Have you seen them?"

"Yeah, I did. They told me to rest where my adventure started."

"When it started?" Yune asked, then started thinking. "Alright, but what did they mean by that?"

It was a good question. What DID they mean by that? 'Rest within the place where your adventure started.', they said. Ken had to think back on all he did through his life. He first had to deal with Xiran, which was the beginning. At that moment, he knew on where it could be. "...I have an idea on where it could be. Get Edge and Ariel and bring them with us. We have to be together for this."

Time: 1:52 PM

The six of them walked towards the outskirts of Station Square, having to leave the city in its inevitable destruction since nothing could stop it, and walked toward a certain part of the area; An old area in which seemed like it belonged to a clan, the twins old hedgehog clan.

By seeing this, the Grey twin looked at him. "Is this our..." She looks at her brother. "Do you think this place might-"

"Yeah...That's what I think anyway." He responds, then looks at his 'family'. "Let's go."

They nod and start walking toward the ruins of the old clan villiage, entering to see all of the old blood that is still stained to the ground, the decayed bodies, and destroyed buildings that was left for twenty years. While Ariel covered the young Edge's eyes, even though he saw and been through more than he should have, the Grey hedgehog looked at everything. "This...This is the carnage Xiran created long ago, and where it all started with the rise of his empire. But...Where can the answers be within this very place?"

"I don't know...I real-" At that moment, his forearm then started glowing, with something within the distance making a sound; A part of the ground started opening, revealing a passage way. "What...What just..."

"The gods gift has made this passage reveal itself. Could they...Have made this long before the clan was created?"

They didn't answer at all since they all didn't have one for it, so they all stayed silent and walked down this new passageway filled that was nothing but dark. Though each and every step down they went, a torch of either Red, Yellow, Green, White, Blue, Cyan, or Purple appeared to light up the way. After what seemed like forever, they finally made it to the final floor, with all seven colored torches appearing to reveal what was in it; A small room that was filled with crystals, and a pedestal in front of a throne made of the same material, with seven spiked shards coming out of the top.

The six just stared at what was in front of them in awe. "This is...Amazing. How can something like this be down here?" Gemstone wondered and started toward the crystal seat, but she was stopped by a light from the seven spiked pieces of the throne, creating a bright screen that revealed what appeared to be information to them. "W-What is this?"

Ken then started looking through it. "It's...A story, a story when something like this ever happens...So, all of this was meant to happen sooner or later." He begins reading it out loud, with it saying what he says as of now. "Chaos, energy that was built within seven jewels, with it having its prime source; A emerald that masters all." They all knew what it meant; The Master Emerald. "Time, the very thing that holds both age and timelines as one, and holds all worlds together, the timestream is what holds time together. Darkness, the energy that lives in all beings through sadness, hatred, and power. Through these emotions is when true chaos forms. These three properties combine into one, being one in the same. Furthermore, when time is shattered, space will come along with it, creating the worlds inevitable doom. And when doom arises, so does the Warrior of the God to heed the ones that chose thou's call. Only thee can bring salvation and bring those to be trapped into the three properties their true paradise; Bhunivelze."

"Bhunivelze; The real god." Stone states. "He is the one that created Etro, Lendzei, and Pulse by sacrificing his time of awakening. Each one of them was given a role." They all started listening. "Etro was given to power to not only bring those who died to their haven, but if their will is strong, they can also be reincarnated for the good or better. While the God of Death, both Pulse and Lendzei used her blood to give life to all of those in the universe, including us. However, since they both held separate powers, one must make an opposing power to counter another; The Sanctum and Pulse L'Cie and Fal'Cie. Creation of life was their common goal." He nods to him. "Please, continue."

He continues reading. "Only the truest power of not only the seven Chaos, but the one chosen by the gods must be used to combine the three together and revive Bhunivelze from his eternal sleep, so that he can create this new world. The Warrior of the Gods must be put in an eternal sleep until the last few end of days, so only then can those who have lost hope can have it regained for the New World."

"The Warrior of the Gods?" Yune asked. "Who could that even be-" She quickly remembered what the Light Grey Mobian said he had before; The Symbol of the Gods. At that moment, she looks at her Brown twins forearm. "I think...You're him."

He looks down at his arm, observing it. "Yeah, seems like I'm needed again...Just for one more adventure." He stared at the throne with pained but small smile right before looking back at them. "Then...I guess I'll be seeing you guys soon."

"Y-You're going along with it?" The Emerald named hedgehog asked in horror.

"I have to. I mean...Think of all of those that will be killed if I don't do anything." He smiles and starts taking out the Chaos Emeralds, with them getting on the tips one at a time. "Take care of yourselves, alright?"

She gets a bit sad but nods. "Alright...I'll see you later." She walks out so she was wait for everyone else.

At that moment, he looks at his twin and the small cat. "Yune, Edge, I'm counting on you guys to look after Ariel...And I hope she does the same."

"So...You're going along with this, huh?" She asked, given a nod just before she hugged him tightly. "Please take care of yourself..."

"Funny...I should be telling YOU that." He hugs back and breaks it off. "Go, get out of here"

The last two females nod and was about to take Edge out of the area, but he just stared in worry. "Ken?" He looks back at him. "Um...About what happened...I...Um..."

"...C'mon Edge, don't worry about it. I'll see you later, ok?" He says to him, given a slight nod before they left, leaving Stone with him. "Stone, I'm counting on you to protect them...My sister especially. She's my only real family left."

"Of course, Son of Hamon. I will not fail you." He says, with the two nodding. "I will see you when you arrive on the final days."

"Same here. Now...Go."

He quickly follows them, leaving Ken to be alone in the small room. He sighs a bit while the seven jewels then stick to their places, with him then sitting down on the throne and placing the shards nearby, creating the Master Emerald. They all glowed brightly in pure light to create something made out of pure crystal at first before turning into pure steel; A sword with a Black guard and handle that held what appeared to be a Brown Emerald on it. He slowly grabs it and stabs it into the ground while keeping his grip on it.

Knowing he committed to it, he smiled. "If the worlds are really becoming one...Then would that mean...I get to see 'her' again?" He smiles by the thought of it. "I can only hope that's the best part of this. So...Just wait for me."

At that moment, his entire body then turned into crystal, entering into his eternal slumber while more of the world started to be overcome with Darkness and Blue lightning. Not only to have time pass, but to become something more. A Warrior of the Gods that's needed to save those in the dying world. But by entering this stasis, he knew one thing; This adventure is his very last one.
