0713MM: Hello guys! I welcome you to chapter 26! Whoo! Just one more chapter after this.
Note: This is going to be rather short due to their not being the end of the story and all. And because the virus being eliminated was the whole point of this chapter.
Chapter 26: Rewriting History/Saving the Astral World from Corruption
As Sky Pegasus and Neo Tachyon flew toward the Astral World Tower, Dumon and Mizar glanced around, looking for the virus that would consume the Astral World into ruin. Mizar looked down and saw the virus was almost at the cities of the Astral World. Dumon glanced at Mizar, sensing the worry of Mizar's face, Dumon whispered something into Mach's ear. Mach nodded, thus speeding up faster. Neo Tachyon did same, meaning Mizar must have told Neo Tachyon to do the same.
At the Astral World Tower…
Eliphas walked out of the corridor that led to the balcony. He looked up, and saw a Pegasus and golden dragon flying toward the tower. Eliphas stared at them.
What are they doing? he thought. He glanced down, and saw Yuma and Vector running. He glanced a bit further and saw a blackish-yellow blob slithering rather quickly toward his city. He then glanced back at the Pegasus and the dragon.
They must want the Numeron Code to rewrite history. he thought. Without thinking, he went back inside to find the Numeron Code. He reached a well-lit room. Well, mostly because the Numeron Code was emitting a lot of light. Once he got it, he went back to the balcony. He noticed that Dumon and Mizar, Rio and Heather already on the balcony.
"So, you made it." Eliphas murmured. Heather nodded.
"You bet." she cheerfully. Mizar gave Heather a look that said, "This world is danger. No time to be cheery". Heather seemed to understand, so she shut up. Dumon stretched his hand toward the Numeron Code, but Eliphas pulled it away from Dumon.
"Nah-uh." Eliphas said, which made Dumon scowl. Rio glanced around. She felt the tension in air.
"So, you feel the tension?" Eliphas asked as they glanced down at the ground. The virus had successfully destroyed the city. Astral Beings were fleeing in terror, but most of them got infected by the virus, making them filled with Chaos energy. Eliphas growled as the chaos energy filled Astral Beings infected other Astral Beings.
"It's just like before…" Eliphas muttered. Dumon gave a nod. The other 3 glanced around. Eliphas looked the foursome. Looking from Dumon, to Rio, then to Mizar, and finally Heather. Eliphas sighed, then handed Dumon the Numeron Code.
"Use it to extinguish the virus." Eliphas instructed. Dumon gave a nod, then pointed it at the virus. The virus saw what was coming, then went into the cracks in the ground and hid. The bright flash from the Numeron Code died down as quickly as it started, unfortunately, it did absolutely nothing. Dumon growled in frustration. Archfiend Seraph's spirit next to Dumon.
"Perhaps you need to be in your Armor form?" Archfiend suggested. Dumon turned to face the spirit of his ace monster. He gave a slight nod.
"Guys." whispered Dumon. The other 3 understood what Dumon was asking. The other 3 nodded. Then, the foursome morphed into their Armor forms, then held the Numeron Code high above their heads, which the Numeron Code emitted a bright flash of light to covered the entire area. It blinded Yuma and Vector, but they didn't mind. Them being blinded for a short time was fine by them. The bright light hit the virus, regardless of it hiding. The virus screamed in pain, then went up into the air in blackish-yellow smoke, like a fire being put out. Or even a candle, for that matter. After the light died down, all of the corrupt Astral Being reverted back to their normal selfs, thus emitting cheers for their 4 saviors. Dumon, Rio, Mizar and Heather gave big smiles at the big crowd of Astral Beings.
"They really think of us as heroes." Mizar breathed. Heather slapped Mizar's back playfully. He groaned from the pain, but still managed to smile.
"Duh." laughed Heather. After the Astral Beings stopped cheering, Eliphas walked up to edge of the balcony.
"Ladies, gentlemen." Eliphas's voice boomed. "These four have this world from utter corruption and destruction. And because of this, I'd like their be 4 statues carved in this stead in every capital." The Astral Beings cheered loudly once more. The foursome blushed in embarrassment.
"You don't have to do this Eliphas." Dumon whispered. Eliphas turned around to face them. He had a grin on his features.
"I insist." he smirked.
"Well if you put it that." Mizar laughed softly.
"Sure! We'd love that!" Rio and Heather chimed in. Eliphas gave nod, then gestured to one of his guards to inform the craftsmen and scuplturemen to get working. The guards gave a nod, then ran off. Rio glanced at Sky Pegasus, who was neighing as if to say, "We can come back to look at the statues later. For now, we must head back to Earth". Rio whispered something into Dumon's ear, then Dumon whispered it into Eliphas's ears. Eliphas's eyes widened a bit, then he closed them.
"Very well." he muttered. "You may come back anytime you wish." The foursome gave a nod as they hopped onto their monsters. Dumon told Mach to bring him and Rio straight back to Earth, while Mizar did a detour and picked up Yuma and Vector. After Yuma and Vector got on, Neo Tachyon flew into the sky, toward the portal back to Earth.
