-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
