Disclaimer: I don't own Gargoyles, I don't claim to. I only own the Setara and Vinkari as they are original characters.

Synopsis: The Allies are prepared to launch a worldwide counter-offensive. Every nation on Earth will be fighting within minutes, in what may be the last few minutes of their lives, people reflect on the events which led to this final battle. Gargoyles, Humans, Fae, Setara, all wondering if this final slaughter could have been prevented.

Tothan's Prophecy: "You have read the prophecies of the future as they appeared, this prophecy is the alpha and the omega of this war. Today, the world shall be thrust into a final battle and soon the Third Great War shall end."


2006 A.D.

"It has begun," said Luna.
"The beginning of the end," said Phoebe.
"They shall end it all soon," said Selene.
"The Humans petty war will be over soon," said Oberon turning to Titania.
"Yes my Lord," she responded.
"Should the Human Race kill all life, we shall remake this planet."
"Indeed..."

"Elisa," said Goliath softly, holding her in his arms.
"Goliath," she whispered, tears glistening down her copper cheeks.
"You are safe now the Vinkari..."
"Is dead," she gasped with a cough.
"How did you know," rumbled Goliath in surprise.
"I was told by someone," she murmurred, looking up into the sky.
"Who," asked Goliath clearly perplexed.
"Goliath," she said, running a hand over his chest warily," I just want to go home, I need rest..."

"Owen," asked Xanatos, his voice steely," How do you think this is all going to end?"
"In fire Mr. Xanatos, in fire," replied the majordomo evenly.
"Owen, don't speak cryptically," warned Xanatos," We both know that the Allied Powers are readying some sort of major offensive."
Owen didn't crack a smile but he did say," Indeed."

Daylight broke across Manhattan. As the sun shone through the skycrapers the city would not know what was to come. The Gargoyles were transformed into their stone state. For one brief hour peace would reign...

"This cannot be committed," said the first Councillor.
"Where is your contact, the Vinkari," demanded a second Councillor with a glare.
"The Vinkari..." stuttered the Representative.
"Tell us," roared a third Councillor.
"I believe the Vinkari is dead," admitted the Representative," I detected a massive set of energy surges in space, and there is damage to the sattelite networks, and there is that new chasm on the moon..."
"Dead," shouted yet another Councillor enraged," Our plans are falling apart, should they shatter with Allied victory you will be punished severely!"

"General Thompson," said an officer on the other side of the Command Center,"All forces report they are ready for Operation: Norman."
"Good..."

"This is it, the final battle is about to begin," said the Setara to the two standing by his bedside.
"Aye, that it is," said MacBeth.
"At least there will be less Humans to worry about," spat Demona, in her form as Dominique Destine.
"Demona, after all these centuries yuir still not one for compassion are you," asked MacBeth angrily.
"Where was Human compassion when my Clan was killed," demanded Dominique.
"Don't..."
"Quiet," said the Setara, glaring at them.

The massive offensive began as scheduled. The Allied countries were victorious and with that the war was over except for the signing of the treaty. Of the seven billion people in the world when the way began, four billion died.

Thus ended the war, more or less. On December Thirty First a meeting was called. Representatives of what was left from every nation that had been involved were called together for the signing of a treaty. The meeting place was a holy site, the Vatican.

A/N: Boy that was short. Oh well, now all is left is the treaty chapter and this is all over.
