Nami held onto the sword and looked at her brother possessed. She looked at her mother who was dying slowly. She looked at both of them and made her decision.
"Goodbye Mamoru. Mother must live" Nami said as she charged towards her brother
Mamoru stood there in amazement as his own sister would attack him. Nami screamed out loud as she charged towards her brother.
John and Angela watched in disbelief as they saw her drive the sword at her own brother.
"Mamoru be gone" Nami said as the sword made its way through the air.
Nami stopped before striking her brother.
"You don't have the courage to do it" Mamoru hissed
"I do and I will!" Nami answered back as she sliced the tentacles holding her brother, and then striking the spear out of his hand.
Mamoru fell back, Nami stood there towering over him, still clutching the sword in her hands.
"I am going to beat you when you wake up Mamoru" Nami said as she picked up the spear and ran over to Rei.
"Mommy please wake up" Rei placed the spear in her hands
"She totally psyched him out" John said
"I thought she was really going to kill her own brother" Angela said
"I thought so too, but damn she really is Rei's kid"
Mamoru came too slowly and awoke. He held his head as it ached with sharp pain. He got up slowly and looked at what happened. He walked over to Rei and his mother.
"Mommy?" Mamoru called out
"Mamoru help me! I don't know how this works. Why isn't she waking up?" Nami cried
"Nami we can stop evil in the world but we cannot stop death" Mamoru said as he touched his sister's shoulder
"NO! She has to wake up! She has to!"
Mamoru looked at his mother's body and saw her spirit rise up. Nami couldn't see it, she kept crying. John looked and saw her spirit float up. He smiled for a second as she was radiant and beautiful as ever. Angela was wondering what the two were looking at.
"Nami, look it's mother" Mamoru said as he looked up
Nami looked up but saw nothing.
"What are you talking about?" Nami said
"Can't you see her? Her spirit, it's beautiful" Mamoru said
"I can't see her!" Nami cried out
"I can" John said as he approached the twins, "She is beautiful"
Rei's spirit smiled and reached down to touch Nami, Nami stopped crying for a second and felt a warmth and feeling of peace wash over her.
"I must go now children. You have proven yourself both. You are the last demon hunters. Do not cry for me as I am always with you. Always" Rei said softy
"We will miss you mommy. We do not know what else to do" Mamoru said
Nami looked at the empty space and wondered what was happening.
"Do not worry, you have each other. You two will survive as we have always survived. Continue your training. Remember that I love you always." Rei said
"Mommy don't leave! Don't leave us! You're all that we have!" Nami said
"I will tell you now who your father is" Rei's spirit looked over at John
Mamoru looked back and saw John standing there watching what transpired.
"No. That's not funny. That's not possible" John said stumbling back
"I no longer have any quarrel or anger towards you. You are their father. You are why Mamoru can see me." Rei said
"He's our father" Mamoru said to Nami
"Him!" Nami said in shock
"Remember all that I have taught you, and I am with you always my children. Always" Rei said as her spirit faded away
"Mother! Mother!" Mamoru yelled out as he reached out to her
"Mommy! Mommy don't leave us! Don't leave us!" Nami cried out
But it was too late, their cries were in vain and she was gone. The twins sat there on the ground holding each other as they cried.
John stumbled and fell back onto the ground where he took out a stick of gum and started to chew on it. Angela walked over to John who was speechless.
"John, what just happened?" Angela asked
"Rei's gone. Her spirit left, but not before dropping the mother of all bombs" John answered
"What?"
"Those two over there, right before she did that whole I'm ascending into the heavens thing, she said I was the father"
"You?"
"Yeah me. I think she just did that to get the last word"
"Yes John it's always all about you isn't it?"
"It always is for some reason"
"Well what are you going to do?"
"What am I suppose to do?"
"Be a father and not abandon them" Angela said as she walked over to them
