Alex and Travis walked into a large room. There was a huge floor and a the there was a very high platform to which Kali was standing on, behind him the controls of the huge floating base they were in.
"Travis my boy." he said happily. "Thank you so much for bringing our house geste here for me." he raised his arms and Travis, surrounded by a blue glow, started floating up to the platform.
"What do you want with me?" Alex asked.
"Just your co operation."
"What?"
"All I want is for people on gaia to live in harmony."
Alex snorted. "Phch ya uhun sure thing kali."
"SILENCE CHILD!!!!"
Alex stayed quiet but continued to glare.
"Now I know you want world peace as much as I do so all I want is to use your power to start over."
"You sound like your grandfather."
" I should think so."
Kali smiled. "Now my dear will you help me?"
"Never."
"Fine then. Travis?"
"Yes master?"
"Kill her."
Travis looked at Alex and then at Kali.
"What?"
"Listen closely boy! I said kill her!"
Kali lifted his arms and Alex surrouded by a green glow floated to the platform and landed on her knees a few feet away from Travis.
Travis conjured a green ball of energy in his hand and stepped towards Alex.
"Woah! Where did you learn to do that?" Alex asked standing up and backing away slowly.
"Around." he whispered
"Travis please."
Travis looked down at her and raised his arm but the his gaze turned to Alex's hand taking something from her neck and putting it in her hand. He reached out and unclasped her hand. He saw the necklace he had given her.
"Travis try to.."
"I can't he's to strong."
She lifted his chin. He stared into her eyes.
"Alex." he whispered.
"He's playing with you Trav.."
He stared at her blankly and then the familiar twinkle of his eyes came back. His eyes looked around as if he didn't know where he was. He slipped an arm around her and turned around. He shot the green ball at the controls and, still holding on to Alex hurdled off the platform. Kali screamed in outrage and the platform exploded. Alex and Travis were still falling to the ground.
Alex spread her wings and slowed there fall and took off for Fanalia the exploding base behind them. Feathers were falling from Alex's back and at each part of the small world they past it sprang to life. When the whole world was as it was the way Alex remembered it,she flew high up so the whole world was in view. The couple's rings glowed brightly and the barriers that covered all nine cities vanished along with the rings.
An hour later Alex touched back down to the ground still clutching Travis tightly.
"I love you."Travis whispered in her ear. "And I'm so sorry."
"Don't be..and..I love you too."
Travis leaned in and kissed her,Alex's arms snaking there way around his neck.
Travis ignored the voice in his head that said. "Ya told you so."
