When Jet and Virginia awoke they found themselves back in Landra's house. Was Landra's house now in Heaven? Were they dead? Did the explosion of light kill them?
"Welcome back," said a female's voice.
Virginia slowly opened her eyes and saw Landra, Azura, and Kael.
"What happened?" she asked. Beside her Jet started to stir.
"You have defeated Duiray," Landra smiled.
"Damn, my head hurts," Jet cursed.
"I can fix that," Azura smiled and touched his head with her hand.
"Heh, thanks," he said.
"Why was there such an explosion?" Virginia asked.
"All of his dark magic released from his body," Landra explained. "thus cleansing the world of all the evil his inflicted upon it."
"See for yourself," Kael smiled pointing at the window.
Jet and Virginia climbed out of their bed and looked outside the window.
"Wow!" Virginia smiled.
The darkness was replaced with light, wilted grass became beautiful green with wild flowers here and there, and they saw children playing with their pets outside.
"So peaceful," Virginia said.
"And it is all thanks to you two," Landra said. "We cannot thank you enough."
"No, thank you," Virginia replied. "If we were not brought here, we would never have met you all, Jet and I would probably still be fighting," - Jet gave a smirk at that, "and I would not be carrying a baby girl."
"Care for that child," Landra said. "For I feel she will play an important role in the future."
"What does that mean?" Jet asked.
He question was not answered when a circle of light surrounded them.
"What's happening?" Virginia asked.
"Lantalla is sending you back to Filgaia," Azura answered.
"Will we see you again?"
"As long as you carry those gems," Landra answered, "yes."
"Th-Then we will see you soon!" Virginia said quickly as she felt her body being pulled away.
"Take care!" Azura waved.
"Thank you!" Kael smiled.

"Jet, Virginia! You are going to be late for the train!"
Jet and Virginia opened their eyes and found themselves in a familiar room.
"Hey, are you two still alive?!"
"That voice…." Jet said.
"Gallows!" Virginia smiled.
She got up and ran out of the room.
"Gallows, Clive! We're back!" Virginia called.
Clive looked up from a book he was reading and Gallows stood there with a puzzled look.
"Back from where?" Gallows asked.
"From Lantalla," Virginia answered. Jet walked up from behind her.
"Lantalla," Clive questioned.
"We've been gone for months!" Virginia answered.
"Virginia, are you feeling okay?" Gallows asked.
"I….don't think she's making anything up," Clive asked looking at Virginia's belly.
"Whoa!" Gallows gasped. "What the hell?! We leave you two alone for one night and you get her pregnant?!"
Jet's faced turned blood red. "Th-That's none of your business! Besides she would not be showing yet after just one night!"
"Okay, let's hear it then," Gallows said crossing his arms.

It took several hours for Clive and Gallows to fully understand Jet and Virginia's story. It was unbelievable, but after seeing Virginia's pregnant stomach and the gems they really had no choice.
Jet and Virginia were married a few weeks after returning to Filgaia. Using the gems they opened a portal and got married in the City of New Life. Clive wanted to stay and study while Gallows wanted to scout out for all the single women. Both were reluctant to return to Filgaia.
They never found out what Landra meant about baby Landra Azura Enduro playing an important role, but they did not worry about it for now. They would care and love the child and protect her together from any danger and harm. They had learned something, demons, gods, and wizards were not powerful enough to best those four drifters.
