Chapter 12: ShadeMan's Fate/Second Ending!

'MusicMan has been reunited with Mr. Edogawa and Maylu and Lan have finally found the love that they had for so many years. Everyone is happy, but can that be said about everyone?"

Cyber Lair

Shademan is sitting on his throne and is now shivering, having watched the ending result of the mission he was given. The cyber window he watched the battle on, now closes as Shademan feels the color leave his face, knowing what is in store for him next.

"They lost the battle..." Shademan speaks with shakiness in his voice as he now slouches on the throne. "Flashman and MusicMan lost the battle, which means I'm done for."

The floor in front of Shademan's throne now turns transparent with the shadow of the Mysterious man appearing.

"Shademan!" The Mysterious Man shouts, making Shademan sit up straight on the throne.

"Sir, I can explain." Shademan begins speaking. "You see, Flashman and MusicMan were..."

"Silence!" The Mysterious Man shouts, interrupting Shademan. "I watched the mission that I assigned for you and saw how it ended. I am not pleased with what I saw."

"Sir, if you would please allow me to explain, I can tell you..." Shademan begins, but is interrupted by the Mysterious Man once more.

"Save it!" The Mysterious Man shouts. "You disappointed me after you specifically gave me your word that you wouldn't! Now you do remember what I told you would happen if I was disappointed this time, don't you?"

Shademan swallows the lump in his throat as LaserMan now teleports in front of him. Seeing LaserMan, Shademan's eyes now fill with horror.

"You have disappointed the master!" LaserMan shouts. "You no longer deserve the throne and to be the leader of the Dark Loids!"

"LaserMan, I can explain everything." Shademan begins pleading with fear showing in his eyes.

"Save it!" LaserMan yells as he now aims the cannons over his head towards Shademan. "The master gave you a chance and you blew it!"

"LaserMan, please hear me out." Shademan continues pleading.

"You have officially been resigned!" LaserMan hisses as his cannons now release huge purple beams.

The beams now impact Shademan in the chest, slamming him against the backing of the throne and knocking the air out of him. Feeling the impact of the attack, Shademan can feel his entire body weaken as his data now begins breaking up.

LaserMan repositions his cannons as Shademan now slumps forward on the throne with his data continuing to break up. Now being motionless, Shademan's data completely breaks up, making him disappear from LaserMan's sight.

(Shademan Deleted!)

"Pathetic." LaserMan speaks as he watches Shademan's data float into the air.

Shademan has been deleted as his data scatters through the cyber lair and now begins scattering into the Cyber World.

What use to be the leader of the Dark Loids, Shademan's data is all of what remains of him.

Dentech City( Sakurai Residence)

Lan has walked Maylu home and they are now sitting on her porch, enjoying the peaceful silence of Dentech's streets.

"This is such a peaceful night." Maylu speaks up.

"Yes it is, but I wish it was this peaceful at the Music Festival tonight." Lan replies. "Flashman's inconvenience was a real pain and what really ticked me off was that he ruined the most important night that you looked forward to all week. It just wasn't fair for him to do that."

"I know." Maylu agrees. "Always leave it to a dark loid to ruin just about everything. It's in their programming."

"Yeah, but despite him showing up, I'm glad that I got my chance to say what I've wanting to tell you for years." Lan speaks in a gentle tone as he now turns to Maylu with a smile. "That was the highlight my night."

"Mine too Lan." Maylu says as she now turns to Lan with a smile. "I've known for a while that you had feelings for me and to be honest, I've always had feeling for you too, but just never knew how to tell you, just like you didn't know how to tell me."

"Well now that we both know, there is nothing else that needs to be said about it." Lan says as he begins gazing into Maylu's eyes. "That is, until I ask you to marry me."

Maylu begins giggling as she now turns away from Lan and to the starlit night sky.

"This night sky sure is beautiful." Maylu comments as Lan now turns his attention to the night sky. "I wish I could gaze at the stars like this every night."

"It sure is, but I know of something even more beautiful then the stars above." Lan comments as he turns back to Maylu.

Maylu turns to Lan with a smile, but turns her attention back to the night sky.

Maylu continues observing the night sky when a shooting star now appears.

"Oh Lan, it's a shooting star." Maylu speaks with excitement as she turns back to Lan. "Make a wish."

"No need to." Lan replies. "I've already made my wish and you came true."

Maylu smiles.

"I love you Maylu." Lan speaks in a whisper as he begins leaning towards her. "Until the end of time."

"I love you too." Maylu whispers as she begins leaning towards Lan.

Continuing to lean towards each other, Lan and Maylu's lips now meet as the two are now locked in a passionate kiss.

The night sky is filled with the light of the shooting star as it continues streaking through the sky above the city.
