-CHAPTER TEN - FINAL BATTLE-
The Boltvengers land nearby the bridge, exiting their jets
In the hallways at the top, Priden is waiting for Zach to get into position
"Ready yet, Zach?" Priden asks
"Nearly there." Zach explains
All four of the Boltvengers walk up to the bridge, evacuating everyone off the bridge
Priden sees everyone evacuating and realizes what is happening
"Shit! They found us!" Priden yells
"Who cares if you get a ticket Zach, just get here NOW!" Priden yells
"Alright, I'm here." Zach explains
"Starting up the drones, now." Zach explains
A massive monster combined with water, fire, sand and wind forms and the Boltvengers are faced with the truth
"It is a projection." Abe said
"We told you." Prox said
"I'll go get him, you find out how to get up with me." Primal says, swinging up to Priden
Primal climbed along the outside of the hallway, protecting him
The rest find a stairwell to climb up to reach Priden
They make it up and Primal breaks through the window, joining them
Lightning starts to strike on the bridge, and the bridge starts to shake
Abe, Prox and Stun try to keep their balance while Primal just stands there
"What are you doing, Priden!?" Abe yells
"Becoming the greatest hero there was." Priden replies
"How are you doing this?!" Abe asks
"I took a little thing from PaperPlane when he died." Priden explains, taking out E.D.I.T.H and putting them on
"E.D.I.T.H, kill them." Priden demands
"I am unable to do that, Priden. I'm sorry." E.D.I.T.H responds
"KILL THEM, NOW!" Priden yells at E.D.I.T.H
"Primal, you go deal with the illusion, we will deal with him." Abe explains
Primal nods, jumping out the window into the belly of the monster
He lands onto a projector drone and he looks around to see multiple drones projecting the monster
"Woah.." Primal exclaims
He activates taser webs and starts a line of webbing, all connecting to each drone
Once done he free falls into the water below and activates the webs, which disable the projection
"Boss, something is wrong with the projection." Zach explains
"It's fine, Zach. I'll deal with them." Priden explains
Primal swings back into the hallway
Multiple drones with gatling guns appear
"You want these guys? Come and get 'em." Priden says
"Primal, you go first. I'll go second, Prox third and Stun last." Abe explains
The other three nod in agreement and Primal begins the charge
The drones start firing and Primal begins to knock them around
Primal makes a mistake and pushes one into a place where Abe is in the strikezone and he gets shot, multiple times, in the chest
Abe falls against the wall
Everyone stops
"Abe! No!" Prox yells
Prox puts her hand on the wound
"Go get him." Abe said, weakly
"Let me go, It's my time now." Abe said
Stun and Primal watched in disbelief
"You were the best team I ever worked with." Abe explained
Abe let out his last breath and shut his eyes, succumbing to his wounds and finally dying.
Primal, Stun and Prox look down, then at Priden
"Look what you did." Prox said, angrily
The last three stood up and rushed at Priden
"E.D.I.T.H, continue firing." Priden demands
"I cannot do that right now, Priden." E.D.I.T.H responds
"FIRE AT THEM, NOW!" Priden yells
Primal passes the line of bullets and finally gets up to Priden
Primal removes the glasses from Priden and he looks at E.D.I.T.H
He crushed E.D.I.T.H, shutting off the drones
"Do you feel happy?" Primal asked
"You killed one of the greatest superheroes to ever live!" Primal explained
Priden sighed
"Part of the journey of a superhero is the climax isn't it, right?" Priden explained
"Also the end of yours!" Priden yells, pulling out a gun
He aimed it at Primal, but Primal was quicker and twisted the gun around at Priden
Priden without realizing, shoots himself in the stomach
He falls to the ground
Primal, Prox and Stun looked down
"Yes, it is indeed part of the journey." Primal explained
"It also works for villains too." Stun added
"How do you feel?" Prox asked
"I feel good, knowing that.."
"..I left a mark on the world before leaving it myself." Priden explains
"The world just needed someone.."
"..to believe in." Priden said
He became quiet
Stun kicked him, no reaction
"We will let the police deal with him." Prox explained
The three of them looked back at Abe's lifeless body
