Disclaimer: I own nothing
The sky raged red with fire. Ethereal energy flowed up from the sea of lava below and coalesced in a swirling globe. High atop the mountain, the four watched on as their defeated adversary writhed in its anger and hatred.
Iblis had been defeated.
Solaris had fallen.
The Future reset as Time flowed back upon itself, creating swirls and ripples that reached out and touched all corners of the multiverse, correcting its mistakes and erasing those who did not belong.
The world began to fade as it lost its footing in the Time stream, falling out from underneath itself, the landscape began to churn, crumbling into oblivion as it inhabitants were erased from their home and carried off to another land, far away and yet, so close.
The Four faced each other and allowed Time to slowly sweep them away. As they began to fade, they took one last look at each other, not knowing if they would meet again or if they would even survive. Three rose up, transcending the dimensions, traveling across time and space.
Two sent back.
One sent home.
The Last stayed, already where he belonged. He waited to be taken as his world crumbled around him. Lava erupted from below as pieces of the mountain fell to the red sea. Dark clouds swirled overhead into a vortex, engulfing the scorched sky.
The mountain descended, slowly, with each burning wave that crashed against its cracked side, until, finally he was level with the roiling sea. The liquid crept closer and closer with every surge. The Last One's shoes smoked as the red liquid brushed their sides.
He stood as it burned. Searing pain, charring his stark white fur, but only briefly. Soon, he fell into its embrace, allowing the dying world to consume him. Then, there was nothing. Release.
A/N: Hi everyone. I'm not dead, as you can see. I have been working diligently on all of my active stories, including this new one. I'm really excited about it and I hope you are, too. I'll have the First Chapter up as soon as I get a green light from reviewers.
