KIBA II: The awakening
Chapter 25: Against the dictates of fate: 2nd Part
" This is a moment in which you must give everything for nothing, it is the moment when you choose to fight for your life and for the little freedom you have, as well as to fight for the rest ofthe lives that you carry on your shoulders, I hope ... . and with this battle, with this fight ... - Zed said as he watched Tasker summon the 5 key spirits- with this fight I can finally rest in peace ... "
"Be a good boy and ACCEPT YOUR DESTINY ZED" Tasker said furiously as he pounced on the boy, Zed uses a sword to hold back his opponent's attack ...
" You do not decide what my destiny is, I will only live for myself ! - Zed said while throwing some Shards against hisopponent,but he dodges them being a few meters away from the boy- I'm sick of you deciding on my life as if I were a stupid puppet, I have my own dreams and wishes too and I won't let a being like you take them away from me "
"Dreams? Longings? That's nonsense, those things are only to feed weak minds," said that one pulling with a mocking tone - besides,you have no right to it, don't you remember how many people you murdered that day? Have I to remind you? "
Upon hearing this the boy only remembered that figure given by the old man of Neotopia " 15,000 people only in Templar"
"If only in Templar there were 15,000 people, can you imagine how many more there will have been in the rest of the world, where there were weaker human populations, without much capacity to defend themselves ... do you want me to give you the real figure? I'll do it…- Tasker said as he laughed mercilessly - Zashura, do it now "
We see that Zashura throws himself to Attack the boy, who launches "Quick Attack" against Zed while he dodges him with effort, butMonardiappears from behindand gives him a blow which sends the boy flying about three meters from the point where They were
" AMIR GAOUL, WHAT'S HAPPENING? HELP HIM " Damián said aloud to the spirit, making him react from that vision that hypnotized him, the spirit turns to see the redhead for a moment, and then he launches into battle, returning to size " normal "spirit that hehad andis launched on Zashura who was about to launch a new attack on Zed
" That really hurt " Zed said as he rejoined from the blow provided by Monardi, we see thatTasker pounced on him, but Damián quickly interfered, taking the bow of judgment and pushing him with the weight of his body as he pulled the bow towards Zed ...
" Take it and get out of here, take it as far as you can, no matter how much you want, don't look back" Damián said as he cornered the tyrant on the ground
" But Damián, I ..." said the boy when we see that Noah takes his arm and drags him along with Roya to get away from that place
"It's a bad idea to stay there, and you know it Zed" said Noah as he took the boy with them
" Damn... what are youdoing? Spirits, go after them" Tasker said as he got rid of Damián, the spirits try to follow the boy, obeying Tasker's orders when we see that the Amir Goul manages to intercept them using his "WindTornado"
" Amir Goul, warn when you try to use that thing" said Damián holding on to some bars to avoid being carried away by that attack, an opportunity that Tasker takes to leave the place after Zed ... "Jumamis, Shadin!" Tasker said as these spirits returned to their Shard form and returned to Tasker's hand.

We see Hiromi Throwing himself on Robés, but he quickly dodges his attack in an "elegant" way so to speak, which irritated that Tycoon.
We see that Sebastian and Khan attack Hiromi from behind ... an impact that was given successfully, causing him to crash into the base of the Amir Goul statue ...
Robés: Well, well… it is not that we were too easy for you? - He said in a mocking tone – yes…you disappoint me, I thought you would be a very good challenge just like Dumas, the peasant
Hiromi: Hey little prince, don't ever compare me to a stupid peasant - when he says this he throws some electric Shards against the blonde - I 'M BETTER THAN ALL TEMPLAR!
Robés:¿ Now you finished talking? Is just that you bore me a lot and I wanna go home
Khan: You better stop all this at once, maybe I can give you a not-so-horrible cell when you finish your sentence.
Hiromi: If you are very merciful Lord Khan, but you know ... - He approaches to themrunning - I WILL HAVE TO REFUSE YOUR OFFER
The tycoon launched attacks without thinking much about it, he just wanted to get rid of the 3 as soon as possible ... We see that Sebastian launches an attack again, wounding Hiromi's back, which causes him to fall on his knees to the ground complaining of pain ...
" Give up once and let's get this over with- Robés said pointing his sword at the guy's neck- the less you resist the better," he said as we watched as one of Hiromi's spirits was shot down by Guardian, Sebastian's spirit, who causes it to fall on the statue of the Amir Gaoul and break into pieces ... that falls on the group of Shard Casters fighting below it ...
Sebastián: Damn it- he said when he couldn't see anything due to the cloud of dust that had risen in that place- Robés, Khan ... are you all right? ... HEY… ANSWER!
Khan: We're fine ... - he coughs a little from the dust- but I think Hiromi has escaped ...
Sebastian: Damn… (he said while clenching his fists)
Robés: Yes ... but it won't be long until I find him ... -Turn around to see his spirit- Belladonna, let's go!
Saying this,the Shard spirit approaches his master, taking him and taking him out of the place ... Sebastian and Khan looked at each other for a moment, both worried about what was happening in this regard ... "Let's not waste any more time and move," Sebastian said as he ran to the exit, the Templar magnate observed him for a few seconds and then followed him ...

We see Noah, Roya and Zed running through the streets of the destroyed Plaza de Templar, the white-haired man sadly looked at the panorama, his friend quickly noticed it and turned to look ahead, noticing that there was what seemed to be an empty house ... " Let's go inside there now "he said with a commanding voice, taking Zed's arm again to direct him to that place, Roya followed them without hesitation, both of them finally entered one of the rooms of the house to such an extent that they were not so in sight of the enemy
We see that Zed leans against a wall, slowly descending, remaining seated on the floor, covering his face with his knees ...
Zed: This is all my fault- hesaidsadly -I could have avoided all this if I hadn't been so stupid, if I hadn't been so naive
Noah: Why do you say that?I don't think any of this was your fault Zed
Zed: Of course it is, I should have trusted those around me and asked for guidance with what to do.
Roya: What should you do with?I do not get it…
Zed: When they took Elliot ... Darío ... I panicked, they had taken my friend and instead of reasoning and advising who I had to get guidance, what I do is fall into Hiromi's trap, agreeing to his stupid deals to set him free, thanks to that mistake many people are dying because of me, Gitra died because of me, I brought suffering to Mirette, I brought death to Elliot, they harmed you... - he takes his hands to his hair and starts it to squeeze- I'M NOT DOING ANYTHING RIGHT!
Noah: Zed ... Elliot was never kidnapped - he said angrily - that idiot cooperated with Hiromi so that you would go to him ...
Zed: What did you say?- He turns to look angrily at the black-haired man- You are like my brother Noah, but I did notallowyou...
Noah: But it's the truth, Zed, he confessed it to me in front of Sebastián, he cooperated with the old man from Neotopia so that no one would realize what was happening
Roya: With the old man from Neotopia you say? Was he a traitor too?
Noah: Yeah, but it doesn't matter anymore, that idiot is dead too and I'm sure the person who was with him when I saw him the week the joust was held was Elliot
Zed: In the end the suspicions about that guy were true ...
Roya: Did you know that too Zed? (she crouches at the height of the white-haired man)
Zed: Those were only suspicions about the old man, there was no proof at all ... - he hides his face in his knees again - I should have done more, really if my me from two years ago saw me in this position, he would kick me and insult me non-stop, and it would be well deserved ... I am very disgusted at this moment, I feel that the best thing would be to die a damn time
Roya: Don't repeat that ever again in your life Zed - she said annoyed - did you hear me?
Zed: BUT IF IT IS THE TRUTH ROYA - he lifts his gaze- THAT'S THE BEST THING ...
When she said this, the girl reacted impulsively and slapped the white-haired man shutting up in this way ... "I told you not to repeat it anymore" said the girl through tears as she threw herself on the boy and hugged him tightly, putting one of His hands behind his head and leaning on his right shoulder, Zed instinctively reacts by hugging the girl hiding his face in her... " You have no idea about the pain that I feel in my chest every time I hear you say that Zed ... I don't I want you to die, I don't want you to leave my side one more time, we can all make mistakes, I know ... but that's not why we should throw ourselves to die, do you remember that you used to fight for your dreams and hopes in the past? Don't let that Zed die ... don't die, you can't do it when I still need you ... "
"Because of me Roya he also hurt you, do you think I'm happy with it? How come you don't hate me?- Said the boy with a voice broken in tears as he hugged her with greater strength- because of me everyone who is around suffers ... I wanted to be happy, I wanted my friends to be happy, I wanted you to be happy, to be happy by my side,butI don't feel like I can do it "
" Then fight Zed, do it for me - she said as she separated a little from the boy wiping the tears from his face a bit- Don't give up and do it for me, understand?" When saying this the girlpounced on the boy again giving him a tender kiss, Noah just smiles and turns to look the other way ...
" I love you Zed" said the girl when she separated and saw her lover staring in the eyes ... Zed only smiles when he sees her, brings her closer to him and this time it is he who kissesher,but with a little more than passion (so to speak) then puts his forehead on hers ... " Okay ... I will live for you, but only if you promise me that you will stay by my side"
" Never doubt it" Roya said while smiling tenderly...

"Where has that idiot gone?" Tasker said on top of a terrace while he saw the panorama around, in that we see that Hiromi is approaching from behind ...
Hiromi: My lord… I can finally meet you. Where is Xeem?
Tasker: The jerk is dead, just like Elliot - he said irritably - but that's not the important thing ... Zed came back and now everyone knows what really happened "
Hiromi: Now how will we proceed then?- He said intrigued - my people continue to kill left and right with everything they can
Tasker: We will use Shadin and Jumamis to be able to locate him and corner him, but first - he turns to look maliciously at Hiromi- I will use you as a container for a few moments, I can no longer keep myself in this way for long and I need to amplify the powers of both spirits key ... but don't worry, it won't hurt too much
Hiromi: What?
When he said this, Tasker pounced on this man and entered his body, when doing so, Hiromi felt great pain and instantly began to scream, bringing his hands to his head, it was too much power that his body could not tolerate ... " I don't want ... get out of me " said Hiromi, but handling Tasker was stronger, so it wasnot long before Hiromi stop resisting ...
" This body will be useful to me for a while until I manage to get the one who can really bear this power without problems, so don't worry Zed, I'm coming for you" Tasker said through Hiromi's body ... he starts laughing as he throws the Shards of Jumamis and Shadin to heaven, invoking Bothagain ...
" Come to me ... Key spirits, merge with this body and lend me your power, do it now!" Tasker said once he raised his hands, the key spirits obeyed without problem, as well as the Key spirits that were fighting Amir Gaoul responded to Tasker's call, entering the body of that possessed human, showing marks on the face of that being, and her eyes being changed to a deep purple
" Excellent ... now well ... Shards spirits that are being handled by casters, as well as spirits that dwell underground, come to my call and report to me ..." As he said this, the Shards spirits began to awaken again attending the call of that tyrant ...includingAfkareruwho was in front of the boys, totally mesmerized by Tasker's power
" With you there you were, - said Tasker who saw through the eyes of that spirit of Water- take me to the rebellious human - he said while being taken by a Shard spirit- take me to him, do not let him escape and incidentally ! destroy everything!

"This is bad ... this is very bad- Damián said as he lookedaround -we must hurry Amir Gaoul" said the boy as he turned to see the key spirit, who took him with one of his hands and began to fly in search for the boy ...
We see Noah, Zed who was holding Roya by the hand (while with his other hand he carried the bow of judgment) running through the square dodging the attacks of those spirits who were trying to stop them ...
" This is where we should attract him - said Zed as he saw the pillarat about 60 meters - this is where ..."
When he says this he realizes that someone is approaching quickly, he turns to look back and it was indeed Tasker who was throwing himself to attack them ... the boy quickly turns Roya and Noah aside and receives the impact directly
" Zed ... NO!" Roya said terrified to see her beloved being dragged by Tasker until they both hit that pillar, the white-haired man being the one who received the greatest impact on his head, leaving him unconscious ... " At last I caught you my dear Zed, it was very predictable that you would separate them to not get hit ...but you know?I'm tired of playing cat and mouse, so I'll take your body right now, the one I'm using right now will start to deteriorate shortly, and I hate when bodies start to decompose "
"Leave him alone you fucking monster" said Noah as he launched the attack on Tasker, but he repels him easily... " Do you really think that attack will stop me?You certainly had such a great ambition, but you were weak and that is why I did notchooseyou... "
When we say we see that he is hit from his back directly causing him to shoot out to crash into a pile of debris ... we see that it was the Amir Gaoul who had returned to his more "Small" form who was preparing to carry Zed in his armsand He would take him away from the area," Noah, retreat as far as possible" saidDamiántaking the bow of judgment...
" But ..." Roya said annoyed, but Noah understood what could happen so he took her tightly from the back and dragged her out of the area ... " But what's wrong Noah? LET ME GO " said the annoyed girl ...
" You know that we cannot be very close at this time, we would only hinder things and you know it Roya" said the black-haired man as he walked with her to a safe place, in order to protect her from any attack that Tasker wanted to cause ...
Amir Gaoul: Zed Can you hear me?- He said as he laid the white-haired man on the floor and wiped the blood that ran on his face a little, causing him to start to react- Zed, you are tired, I know ... but you must wake up so that we can end this one more time and finally you can be free "
Zed: You are… - he said as he came back to consciousness- You are… Amir Gaoul… - he smiles- it 's good to hear you again
Amir Goul: Forgive me for everything, I never listened to you as I should, if I had been more careful none of this would have happened
Zed: Let's put that in the past, will you?- He gets up and slowly stands upwith the help of his key spirit- Now we must finish with that subject there
We see that Tasker gets up from the rubble, he looked super annoyed, to tell the truth, Damián quickly approaches that duo ... and hands the bow to Amir Goul, who when he touches it quickly takes the form of that powerful spear again
" Amir Gaoul ... go you are very inopportune, always intervening where it does not concern you, it makes me want to break you into pieces and throw yourself into the ocean, so ... - he launches the attack quickly - WHY NOT START AT THIS MOMENT?
With his attack he quickly separates the three, separating Damián from this ... launching ruthless attacks at the latter, who dodged them with great difficulty ...Amir Gaoul stares at Zed while Damián distracted that being ..." Zed ... I know you don't What I have to propose to you at this moment will be very pleasing, but I know what we must to be able to stop it once and for all… " said the Key Spirit, the boy was only surprised to hear the words of his partner, but he tasted like what did he mean ...
" I understand Amir Goaul ... but I do not want to lose my autonomy and I do not want to lose who I am ..." said the boy as he lowered his gaze ... the spirit puts his hand on the white-haired's cheek ..." Everything will be fine, I promised..." said the key spirit when they are suddenly attacked by that tyrant, separating them both, then directing their attacks towards Zed
" Damn brat, give up once, you are nothing and you will be nothing without me" said that being without stopping his attacks towards the boy, he threw blows that were dodged, which ended up hitting the walls of houses or the ground, wounding great way the hand of the userwho possessed ...
" You are stupid if you think that I will let myself be controlled by someone like you" said the boy while using some fire Shards against that being ... but these did not have an effect directly, which surprises the boy, normal attacks could not against him, that tyrant laughs at the boy's ineffective attack, and responds with a punch, which Zed manages to dodge once more, causing it to hit the ground once more, which is broken by the force of the impact ...
" Remember that you were fighting with me TASKER" Damián said as he launched the attack once more, putting his hand on the chest of that being, thus causing a wave of energy which sends him shooting backwards, we see how Amir Gaoul stands in front to where that being would collide, intercepting his trip by taking him by the arm and causing him to crash against the groundstrongly ... he takes his WindLanceto be able to insert it into the chest of that being ... but it reacts quickly taking the arm of the spirit, pushing him away from the place, At the same time we see Zed running towards the place where that spirit hit….
"No matter how hard you try, you will not be able to beat me, give up once - said that being as he stood up - you are nothing more than garbage that only interferes with my plans over and over and over again and you have me fed up" he launches on the attack again, but this time he is intercepted by Damián ...
" You look desperate, Tasker- he laughs-do you know that you will lose?" Damián said as he returned to a one-on-one fight against that being ...
" Amir Gaoul, are you okay?" Zed said while reaching the place where that spirit had impacted, the spirit stops without any difficulty... he turns to see the boy and extends his hand towards him, the boy is surprised for a moment ..." I promise you that everything will be fine " He said while looking into the boy's eyes, he sighs for a moment, but then he sees that spirit with determination and takes his hand, the spirit smiles and then pushes the boy towards him ...
We see Damián attack the tyrant with his sword, he dodges the chestnut's attacks without any problem ... " Are you tired Damián? Don't worry I'll send you to sleep soon, but it will be forever " Tasker said as he kicked Damien in the stomach, causing him to fall to the ground ..." Now die! " said that being about to provide an attack on Damián when he suddenly felt the attack that was coming after him and dodges it with difficulty ...
" But what the hell" Tasker said when he saw "Zed" standing in front of him ... the wind began to blow quite strongly at the boy's will apparently ... "We will not allow you to continue with this madness,Tasker" said the boy as he opened his eyes, revealing those blue eyes that confirmed that he had finally merged with his key spirit once more ...
Noah and Roya are surprised to see the change in the boy's eyes, and the imposing presence he felt ...
"Well, well, but you decided to end join with your spirit once again, as I had understood not want to do it because that spirit Key you steal your identity, and now it turns out that you accept it on your body again –he laughs- For the best of grace ...- run towards them as a sign of attack - YOU WOULD HAVE PREFERRED ME "
When saying this, that being throws himself on that human / spirit hybrid and uses an energy beam (similar toPrónimo's) against them, but it invokes one of the AmirGoul's Wings and uses them as a shield to be able to stop that attack, but suddenly we see thatTasker is positioned behind them and throws them another shot behind, which sends him crashing into a wall ... " You're really amazing Amir Gaoul, your ability to influence The people or beings around you are very good, you went to look for this boy on his 15th birthday, just when his shard Caster powers were beginning to awaken, you brought him to Templar and put him under the protection of Sebastián and Zico to guide him to What? Disobedience of course, even that you have as being a rebel, all this is your fault ... IT IS YOUR FAULTTHAT MY WILL ABOVE ALL POWER IN THIS WORLD CANNOT BE FULFILLED and I am already fed up with this ... So if you don't hand me that boy I'LL KILL YOU BOTH ONCE FOR ALL"
When he says this, he invokes Monardí's bow of arrowsvand begins to shoot it against the fusion, but they manage to dodge it without any problem, at the same time that they invoke the Wind Lance in his left hand, at the same time that in his right hand he invokes the roll of the seven northern starswhich he throws towards Damián, which he manages to catch quickly ..." You know what to do" said that fusion while he saw his opponent, Damián only nods his head in positive response and extends the seal over the ground putting his hands on it and begins to whisper a few words in a low voice, making the letters of that papyrus begin to glow ...
"Hold on a little longer please! -Damián said- a little more and all this torment will end, I promise you"
We see that fusion launch the attack againstTasker, using that spear as a weapon, they deliver a blow toTaskeron his left cheek with one of the tips of the spear, causing him to fall to the ground, and immediately try to insert it into the chest of the container that that being used, but was unsuccessful, instead receives a leg in the thorax, causing himto lose a little air ...Tasker tries to stop, but "Zed" throws some fire's shards, hitting his opponent pushing him a few meters back, near the pillar ...
" Damián ... tell me that it's ready" said that fusion a bit hasty about it, at the same time we see thatTaskershoots a "Quick Attack"ring at them from Zashura's powers, which the boy dodges with ease, he invokes one of Amir Gaoul's own Wings and launches the attack against that being again ...
Roya: There is something we must do about it Noah, we cannot leave Zed fighting alone like the last time, we must support him now or never -said the girl with a look full of determination - we must assure Zed's victory
Noah: But Roya ...- he said with concern- What if instead of helping Zed we are a hindrance?
Roya: That will depend on us Noah, we must be firm at all costs,we must also fight for our Zed,right?
Noah: Roya ...- he turns to see his friend and sighs- Okay ... but you must follow the instructions that I will give you...
We see thatTasker and that fusion had a very close fight, theygave and received blows,Tasker's only advantage was that he had more powers than AmirGaoul and Zed together, but the body he used was not suitable, because he limited it and he knew it... " Damn it" said that fusion when it was finally cornered byTasker, he looked at him with hatred ...
" I am already fed up with you, you will not oppose me,you WILL NOT!" He said while creating an energy sphere equal toZashura's..." THEN DIE MISERABLE "he said at the same time as he proceeded to launch that energy sphere when suddenly we see that Roya and Noah interpose themselves in their midst and throw dark and water shards against Tasker preventing him from using his attack on Zed...
"Get up now" Noah said to that fusion ...when suddenlyTasker hits the black-haired man and sends him flying until he collides with a wall ... from there he takes Roya by the neck and lifts her up,taking her hostage ...
" Let go of her now," said that fusion, making his concern about such a situation known,Tasker laughed as he squeezed the girl's neck tightly, she tried to loosen up, but that being had superhuman strength ...
"Zed, I know you hear me perfectly ... - said that tyrant - I will kill the girl if you do not separate from the Amir Gaoul and surrender at this moment"
"Damn, just a little more ... let's go" Damián said in a hurry before such a situation,Noah little by little got up and was surprised to see the situation ...
" Zed... don't ... listen to him" said Roya with the little strength she had left ... the white-haired man tries to take a step forward but is stopped by himself ... an internal conflict had been generated again in himself ...
"We must save her, we cannot let her die- he said to himself ...- No, we must remain firm and face it, that is the way to stop it" was whathis internal counterpartsaidwhile holding his head in pain.
Taskerjust laughed when he saw such a situationthe boy was in, he enjoyed it too much ..." Tick tock ... time is not waiting for you,Zed..." he said as he tightened his grip on the girl's neck and walkeduntil he reached the frontof the guy…
" Okay ... - he said that merger being dominated byZedin thesemoments - I give up if you let the girl go" Tasker smiles at hearing those words and looks with happiness to the person infront ofhim, puts his hand on the chest of the white -haired causing thatZed put his right hand to his chest due toa strong pain in his chest, expelling the Amir Goul from the boy's body leaving the latter stunned...
" Zed... react now" said Amir Goul trying to throw himself on the boy to protect him fromTasker, when this tyrant throws a ball of energy against the winged being,sending him several meters back ...
That being, throws aside the girl almostunconscious, back two steps and out of the body of Hiromi, who falls to the ground lifeless, takes a few steps forward and hugs Zed, stroking his back ..." Don't resist boy, I am you... you are me ... we are a single entity that was destined to meet and end this world - he said while approaching the boy's ear- I will make you very happy, we will be happy together... I will give you all the pleasure you ever need, you don't need anyone else ...and my obsession will not end until you are only mine,Zed...no matter how much I take from you, your power will grow again day after day and that is not something I can let go"
" Zed... PLEASE REACT" Roya said as she saw what was happening in front of her eyes ...
" I won, Zed..." Tasker said while laughing madly, when we see that the white-haired man slowly puts his hand on the neck of that being ... " As long as I exist ... I will never let you win,Tasker" said the boy making Tasker stop laughing and his gaze will be filled with surprise ...
" I invoke the 7 northern stars, so that they can seal once and for all the evil of this world!" Damián said as he put that papyrus on the pillar in the square, which instantly began to shine at the same time asZed's necklace did... we see how 7 hands come out of this pillar which quickly imprisonTasker and him they begin to drag towards that pillar, that being put up resistance, but this entity that was dragging him was stronger than him ...until finally it imprisons him against it, and begins to"electrocute" him so to speak, causing him to flood with pain , same pain that begins to invade Zed's body, making both of them scream, at the same time we see that one of those hands takes the boy's body and drags him towards the pillar, puttingTasker in front of him again ...
" Take the necklace and put it on the forehead of the entity you wish to seal, in this way you will be accepting yourself as a sacrifice and the ritual can be completed, sealing both in us"
It could be heard that it came from the pillar, in a combination of many tones of voices, as if many people were speaking at the same time, causing everyone to be surprised about it ...
Both Noah, Roya and Amir Gaou lrun towards the Pillar to try to getvZed out of there ... but it creates a kind of shield so that no one enters the Zone ...
" Zed... DON'T DO IT, YOU HAVE A LOT AHEAD" said that key spirit hitting that barrier ...but it was useless, he couldn't break it ...
"Put the pendant of your necklace on his forehead ... put the pendant of the necklace on his forehead" those voices kept saying in the form of pressure ... " Show that you are not a coward and do it at once ...this was your plan from the beginning. Isn't it? You already knew, you knew this was going to happen ... Tasker said between groans to the boy ...surprising Roya and Noah ...
" Did you know about this Zed? WHY DID YOU NOT TELL ME?" Roya said while hitting thatshieldwith his fistswith tears in his eyes ..." PLEASE DON'T LEAVE " saidthe girl with all her might ...
Those words of course madethe boy's heart ache ..." I'm so sorry, Roya ..." Zed said as he was filled with determination and tore off the necklace to be able to put it on Tasker's forehead when we see that Damián appears inside that shield and stops the boy's arm removing the pendant ...
" There is still something missing ..." Damián said as he placed his left hand onTasker's chest and took out a sphere of energy... " Protect and direct this world Zed... you have the power now" Damián said with a smile on his face to the time he hit Zed's chest with the Shard energy sphere, shooting him out of that shield ... Amir Gaoul immediately runs to catch him and prevent him from crashing to the ground...
"Roya ... Noah ... please remind the world that I once existed" said the redhead with the biggest smile he had ever given, at the same time that a tear came out of his right eye ... in this way putting the pendant on that being ...
As he did it, a light begins to invade that energy field…" DAMIAN NO!" Zed said trying to stand up at the same time he felt a strong pain in his chest, which made it impossible for him to move on...
"I WILL COME BACK FOR YOU ZED ... AND I WILL KILL YOU WITH MY HANDS, IT'S A PROMISE" They were the cries of despair thatTasker gave before being completely sealed together with Damián in that pillar, which was reduced to a scarlet colored gem which fell to theground ...
At the same time, we see all the shard spirits disappear and return to their owners, and the others without owners, to nature ...
" Well, they managed to stop this ..." said Robés next to Khan and Sebastian, who were at the door of the castle...
We see Mirette hugging Ginga and Enmeida smiling and sighing that at last it was all over ...
But not everything was happiness ...
" DAMIÁN WHY DID YOU DO IT? DAMN IT ... WHY?" Zed said as he cried inconsolably,hitting the ground for the helplessness of not saving his friend ...Amir Goul,seeing that the boy was hurting himself,decided to hold him and lay him on his legs, while we saw that Roya and Noah slowly approached them, being Roya who carried the gem in his arms ...
" Zed... you really did well ...now rest ..." said that spirit Key while caressing the head of the white-haired man, while he put his hands on his chest as a sign of the pain he feltwhile slowly losing consciousness...
" Do you think Zed will be okay?" Roya asked, worried ... Noah was staringat AmirGoul...
" Well Amir Gaoul…now tell me, what did Damián do to Zed before taking him out of there?" Asked the black-haired man seriously, that Key spirit smiled as he prepared to carry Zed to take him to safety ...
" Zed finally received Tasker's power,but his essence, that is, the power of creation... If Damián hadn't done that before SealingTasker, all Shard energy would have disappeared from this world, including spirits."
"So ... now Zed- Roya said in surprise - is virtually ..."

It has been about 6 months since the battle with Tasker... Templar has finished its reconstruction phase in a short time, thanks to the help ofJimoto, who was now commanded by Enmeida who was finally guiding the country on the right path...
Sage2: Today we can finally finish the reconstruction of the country, thanks to the cooperation of our new allies
Sage1: We have finally been able to take back the philanthropy of this country and our people feel more secure
Khan: We trust that you ... as theTemplar's protective deity, can continue to guide Zed on the right path,also ensuring that the boy continues with his treatment and training, so that he can finally take his rightful place ... Isn't that so? AmirGaoul?
Everyone in the roomstared at the spirit Key, who stood from the placewhere he was sitting, watching the rest of the advisors
" I can assure you that the progress that Zed has made in his training is good, but now we are focusing more on his emotional stability, which is very important for us at this time, when the time is right and the boy is ready, he will assume the role that corresponds to him, but for now I will continue to take care of his duties ... "
We see Roya walking through the corridors of the castle, she looked very animated,at the same time she was meditating on the last changes that occurred lately ...Ulbarx as such no longer existed, so Ginga had officially joined the Templar as a scientist, in order to bring his knowledge to this country and help them move forward.
Mirette and Sagiri came back to Rion...due that Sagiri has to meet her duties as princess, and Mirette wanted a new beginning ...
Neotopia was being rebuilt and would be under the command of Noah, which was decided by the rebel group that was still fighting for that country... in fact Kira slapped him several times, but she ended up accepting him ...
" Hey Roya ... I'm talking to you ... Roya" was heard in the background, interrupting the girl's thoughts ... it was Mikk iwho saw her friend excited ...
Mikki: Roya ... I was asking you if you would go to Robés' party tonight ... I really don't want to go alone withPinnot
Roya: Sure the party ... I'm just going forZed to go together, I know it will do him very good to go out
Mikki: I'm glad to know that he finally decided to go... -smiles- in fact you two make such a beautiful couple ... remember that the wedding cake will be on my own, so don't go to order else where, otherwise I will resent
Roya: C'mon Mikki! - she laughs- Zed is not of legal age yet, and according to his guardian, at least Zed must be 22 years old to get married, and he will barely turn 18 next month, we have a long way to go for that.
Mikki: Hahahaha, you'll have to wait a little longer to live together, right?
Roya: As long as we love each other Mikki... that's not relevant
Mikki: I'm glad to hear that ... oh look at the time ... I must go for Pinnott, if you'll excuse me Roya ...
Saying this, the boy runs away, while Roya continues on his way to meet his beloved ...

While so many of us see Amir Gaoul enter his sanctuary, he saw the scarlet gem smiling, along with the 5 remaining key spirits...
"Fighting against darkness is a never ending battle, as long as there is evil in the world, people will continue to seek absolute power to be able to fulfill their desires, it is an endless search, and as long as people continue to search for it, there will continue to be chaos ... So Zed, you must be ready to fight that desire, and I would really like to help you with it ... but- he smiles maliciously- it 's a shame that my darkness is bigger than my light ...so go preparing, because at any moment I will go after you and become the owner of this, and of all dimensions for having... "

We see Roya arrive at the place where Zed lived... the lights in the main room were off, so he was guided by the moonlight that came through the windows ...
Finally she enters the boy's room, and we see him near the window, observing that satellite, which gave him charming light, there were no lamps on either, only the moon light...
" Babe… aren't you ready yet?" Roya said when she saw Zed with sleeping clothes ...the white-haired man turns to see Roya, then he smiles tenderly...
"You know that I don't like to go to parties, I thought I told you that I would not attend,besides that you would go with Mikki and Pinnot, wasn't it?- He said as he approached Roya slowly- By the way ... you look very beautiful tonight "
"I had to try - Roya said as she sat on the bed - we must go out more often at night, even if it's to see the stars, don't you think?"
We see that Zed sits on the bed next to Roya ... who rests her head on the boy's shoulder ..." You know Roya ...I don't need to go looking for more stars, if I already have the one to guide me by my side"
The girl smiles when she hears the words of her lover ..."It sounds very nice but it will not serve as a hook, we will have to leave soon ... by the way... Where is Amir Gaoul? - She said curiously - I thought he would be with you"
We see that Zed puts his hands on the girl's cheeks and gives her a tender kiss ..." he said he would continue investigating how to bring Damián back, so he would not return today ... he is probably in his sanctuary"
Roya smiles upon hearing this while stroking the boy's back… " So… Can I have you to myself all night?"
At the hearing this, Zed blushes a little... "It seems ," said the boy while Roya gave him a warm kiss which the boy replied without complaint...
" You know Roya ... -said Zed separating a moment of his girlfriend- one of my reasons to return to fight in this world once again against Tasker was you..." said the boy as he gave her a kiss on the forehead. " were I your reason? The girl said while smiling
" That's how it was… - he continued- You were my reason for being here again and you are the reason for staying… I wouldn't know what to do if you're not here… it's true, You weren't with my in all the years that I keep existing… but ultimately, I want you to stay in the rest of it, Roya ..."
Then we see that Zed gives her one more kiss ... kiss which Roya responds without problem...Zed pushes the girl to the bed and climbs on top of her... Roya instead of hesitating responds to the caresses of her boyfriend, both getting carried away by the moment under the moonlight...
" I know it's been a long way here- Zed said to himself- but I'm really happy to be in this place ... is a journey that would take if I had to choose again, I met wonderful people and made this my home...
I will be ready to protect those I love, I will be ready to fight… this does not end here… this is just beginning… "
