Nikki banged her fists on the barrier. Van and the others ran into the room. They were shocked to see Fiona being chained up and Vision holding a knife in his hands.

Nikki: Father, stop it! Don't do it!!

Van: FIONA!!

Irvine: Damn it!!

Moonbay: Oh my God!

Vision walks over to Fiona and uses the knife to slit her wrist. Blood flow into a bowl. Vision pours the blood over the knife.

Fiona: Help me! Van! (She fainted)

Van: Fiona! Hold on!! I'm coming!

Van uses his body and hit against the barrier but it was no use. Irvine tried to help him but it didn't do anything.

Nikki suddenly heard her mother's voice in her head.

-----------(In Nikki's head)----------

Jasmine (Nikki's mother): Nikki, you must stop your father from letting the Zoidians to rise again.

Nikki: How do I do that? I can't go through the barrier.

Jasmine: You have the gift of the mind, which is very powerful. Use it.

Nikki: Why must it be me? Why do I have this gift?

Jasmine: You are a Zoidian. You are the only one who is able to save Fiona, your fellow Zoidian.

Nikki: I can't do it. I can't betray my family. I did it once. I can't do it again.

Jasmine: My child, it's not your fault. You did nothing wrong. You followed your heart and chose your own path to take. You can do it. I'll be beside you.

-----------(End of conversation)-------

Nikki walked towards the barrier and touch it. She closed her eyes and went into Fiona's mind.

---------(Fiona's mind)----------

Nikki: Fiona, can you hear me?

Fiona: Who are you?

Nikki: I'm Nikki. I'm your friend.

Fiona: You are the one who captured me. What do you want?

Nikki: You have to wake up. You have to open your eyes.

Fiona: I can't. I'm too tired. I want to sleep.

Nikki: Fiona, you have to wake up. Don't you want to see Van? Don't you want to marry him and grow old together?

Fiona: Yes, I want to be with Van.

Nikki: Then, you can open your eyes. Van is waiting for you. He is in the room with you. Your friends are here too.

--------(End of conversation)--------

Nikki open her eyes. Fiona opened her eyes too. Vision saw Fiona awake.

Vision: You are awake. You should have stayed asleep. This will be painful.

Vision slit her cheek. Van was shouting trying to get Vision to stop.

Van: YOU BASTARD! HOW DARE YOU! YOU'LL PAY!

Vision: You are so pathetic. You can't even save your love one. Fool. Sons, capture them, except Nikki.

Nick: Yes, father.

The brothers capture Van. Irvine and Moonbay. The three of them struggled but the grip was too strong. Nikki stared at Vision who stared back at her.

Vision: My daughter, how can you betray your family? You are a disgrace!

Nikki: I'm sorry, father. I ask for your forgiveness.

Vision: You are just like your mother. Her beauty. Her wisdom. Her stubbornness.

Nikki: I talked to her. She told me that I was a Zoidian. Was it true?

Vision: Yes. You and your brothers are Zoidians.

Van, Irvine and Moonbay were shocked.

Vision: Your brothers knew. I promised your mother not to tell you.

Nikki: Why are you doing this?

Vision: To bring your mother back and to rule the world.

Nikki: Release Fiona.

Vision: Who are you to tell me what to do!

He let down the barrier and summoned Hiltz and Ryss to bring Nikki towards him. Vision looked into Nikki's eyes. He slapped her.

Irvine: HEY!! YOU IDIOT!!

Vision looked at Irvine.

Vision: You love my daughter, don't you?

Irvine: Yes, I do.

Nikki looked at Irvine. Moonbay was looking at the floor.

Vision: My daughter betrayed her family because of this ruffian!!

Nikki: NO! I followed my heart! It's not his fault!

Vision looked at Van. He took the knife and slit Fiona's arm. Fiona was weak from losing too much blood. Nikki knew she had to do something. She used her mind and tried to unchain Fiona.

-------(Irvine's mind)------

Nikki: Irvine, I need you to distract my father.

Irvine: Nikki? Why?

Nikki: Don't ask questions. Just do it.

-------(End of conversation)------

Irvine: HEY, PEA-BRAIN! IF YOU WANT TO AWAKE THE ZOIDIANS, WHY NOW?

Vision walked towards him. Nikki used all her strength and will power and unchained Fiona. Van stepped on Nick's foot. Van ran towards Fiona and carried her up. Hiltz and Ryss tried to stop him but they were pushed away by Nikki's mind. Nikki fainted as she used up her strength. Irvine knocked Norris and picked Nikki up. Moonbay bit Norman's arm and ran to the door. But the door was locked. Vision sneered at them. Suddenly a gust of wind blew opened the door and knocked Vision off his feet. The gang ran out of the castle. They got into their Zoids and ran to the nearest hospital. Moonbay took one of the Gustav in the castle and transported them.

----At the Hospital------

Fiona's wounded were treated and was resting in a hospital room. Van was with her. Watching over her. Nikki was also sleeping in another room with Irvine and Moonbay looking after her.

Moonbay: What's going to happen to them?

Irvine: The Imperial army captured them. But Vision, Hiltz and Ryss escaped.

Moonbay: Irvine? If I tell you that I love you, what will you do?

Irvine: I will say that I only treat you like a sister and I'm in loved with someone else.

Irvine touched Nikki's forehead.

Irvine: I'll get some drinks for you and Van.

Moonbay: Ok.

Nikki woke up.

Nikki: You love Irvine don't you?

Moonbay: You heard our conversation?

Nikki: Yes

Moonbay: Sorry.

Nikki: You don't need to say that. If you love him, carry on loving him.

Moonbay: Why?

Nikki: Don't tell Irvine that I know that I'll be gone soon and he needs you to be there for him.

Moonbay nodded her head. Irvine came in. He hugged Nikki. Moonbay stepped out of the room.

----In Fiona's room----

Van was holding Fiona in his arms.

Van: I missed you so much.

Fiona: Me too.

Van: I'll never let you out of my sight again.

Van took out a diamond ring.

Van: Fiona, Will you marry me?

Fiona: YES.

Van put the ring on Fiona's finger and kissed her on the lips.

-----Sometime after----

Moonbay: Fiona! Over here!

Fiona laughs and threw the bouquet of flowers. All the girls were pushing each other but in the end the bouquet ended in Nikki's hands.

Van: Hey, Irvine! You'll be next!!

Irvine: Don't worry! I'll invite you!!

Irvine put his arm around Nikki. Nikki hit him on the chest making him fall into the pond, which was behind him. Everyone laugh. Moonbay high-fived Nikki.

Moonbay: You go girl!

Nikki: Thank you. Thank you, very much.

Van helped Irvine up. Thomas walked over with Herman.

Thomas: Congrats, Van! You better look after this gem next to you.

Van: I will.

Herman: You better get going on your honeymoon. I want you back on duty in one-month time.

Van: YES, SIR!

Van took Fiona's hand and they went into the Liger. Zeke was trying to get the bowtie out of his neck when Van called him. Zeke fused with the Liger and they happy couple went to their honeymoon at the Wind Colony. The rest continued to party through the night.
