This is it! The final chapter! (Chibi Black Cat takes out celebratory sake, remembers that it tastes bad and is also a waste of ammo, so goes for the Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough ice cream instead) I'm so glad I made it this far! After all, if it wasn't for those positive reviews in the first place, I probably wouldn't have continued this, much less think up One-shots and a sequel! In fact, I probably would've forgotten this site existed! (no offense) So, without further ado, the end to Tyson's Twin!

Chapter 51: Finale Pt. 1

Tysa let out heavy breathes as she walked through the hallway. She had never thought a hallway could be so long. But, she would have to make it to the end.

Flashback

…and it was the Kairi.

I…won. Tysa thought. I won!

"Yeah, I won—hmm?" Tysa stopped her cheering to look at her former opponent. Chaos had stopped moving. "…Chaos?" Upon hearing her name, a gust of air left Chaos. Chaos blinked, and tried to breathe, but she couldn't. She looked at her transparent arms and moved them. She slowly pieced what happened as she looked at her confused other half.

End Flashback

Tysa managed a small smirk as she walked. Guess sometimes, life has its own ways of being fair.

Flashback

"C-Chaos…?" Tysa asked, not noticing any signs of breathing as she walked closer to her. "Chaos?" She reached out to touch Chaos, but fell through her body. "What?" Tysa asked, turning around. She growled angrily and began to punch through Chaos' non-existent self. "What—the—heck—is—going—on!"

"Tysa, stop! Save your energy!" Chaos commanded, but knew it would do no good. After a while, Tysa stopped in mid-punch, panting.

"Y-your body…heh…guess that almost was me, huh?"

"No…Mizuki…it would've never been you."

End Flashback

She looked around the darkened hallways. All of them seemed to have some sort of blue light flowing through them. Tysa liked how the blue and black blended. In fact, she noticed that she had liked any color with black. She thought back, and noticed how that seemed to be her life in her own opinion. Black with light gray.

Flashback

"What do you mean, Chaos?"

"Heh. Please. I would never hear the end of it if I let you disappear. Win or lose, I still would've taken the brunt of it."

"Huh?"

"I am…a soul, Mizuki. And I…" Chaos smiled as her body slowly became more and more transparent. "I don't think I've been happier."

"What?"

"Think of it this way. I've always been a passenger on a train. Never been able to use my own feet. Always the train. But now…" Chaos' smile glowed with pride. "Soon, I'll be able to."

End Flashback

Tysa slowed down her blinking. She had to admit, she was getting tired. With that battle, and running up the stairs, she had become really tired. She was almost at the point where she could just take a nap on the floor. She considered that for a second, then shook her head. She had to hold on just a little longer. She was almost there.

Flashback

"I'm…really glad I met you, Mizuki." Chaos assured her, sensing Tysa's sadness. Tysa stepped back a bit.

"Chaos…" Chaos blinked at hearing her name and Tysa looked her her, smiling. "That's not much of a good name, is it?" There was a small moment of silence. "Ariake!"

"Huh?"

"That…that's what I'm gonna call you the next time we meet. Ariake." Chaos blinked at her, then laughed. "Hey, I thought hard on that!"

"No, Mizuki…" Chaos said, wiping tears from her face. Tysa watched a tear go down to the floor, causing a wet spot on it. "Ariake's fine…but…do you know what it means?" Tysa nodded, feeling emotionless tears come to her eyes.

"Yes. It means 'dawn with the moon visible'. Mother said that…Dawn is a very special time of reawakening." Chaos nodded, remembering Tysa's mother.

"Mizuki…" Chaos stopped herself. Would it be fair to tell her about her mother's help? No…it wouldn't. It would completely change her course. After all, Chaos knew Tysa had no greater wish than to see her mother again.

End Flashback

Tysa stood in front of the big machine. It wasn't as big as she expected thought. She walked up to the control panel. To someone who was completely clueless in the matter, all the buttons and knobs would've made no sense whatsoever. (if you have the same IQ as me, they definitely wouldn't. All I'm good for is writing…) But, Tysa felt what were the right switches.

"This is it…" Tysa mused, gulping. She wished that someone, anyone, was here with her. After all, when the world's ending, everyone's your ally. Tysa gulped again as she looked up to some sort of tube with liquid in it. It intimidated her for a reason she couldn't understand.

I have to snap out of it! Tysa thought as she tried to suppress the familiarity she felt from the room.

Flashback

"Hey, Ariake?……Ariake!"

"Huh?" Chaos asked, still not used to the new name.

"…How long is it going to take you to fade away?"

"…you ask the most inappropriate questions, Mizuki…" What else does she ask? That if old guys are going to die?! As if it triggered something, a silver ring started to form at the bottom of Chaos, and slowly started to move upwards, making Chaos' body disappears.

"So…this is it…" Chaos thought aloud. "Finally…it can end…"

"Yeah…I guess…Farewell, Ariake." Tysa said, turning around.

"Wait!" Chaos suddenly yelled, surprising Tysa.

"What?" Tysa asked turning around.

"It…wasn't supposed to be like this." Chaos confessed. "Something happened…and messed up everything…that machine…it…it won't stop the darkness. But…it can prevent it."

End Flashback

Tysa gulped and bit her lip. She had no idea how much time she had left. Seconds seemed so long it made her uncomfortable. Many times she had to remind herself to breathe normally when her breathing unconsciously slowed down.

Take deep breathes, Tysa…In…Out…In…Out…Gee I wonder how long I can think that until I forget to…

She would keep making nervous glances towards that tube. It still made her unnerved, but in a familiar sense. She shook her head and continued pressing the buttons. She was almost done.

Flashback

"It can…prevent it?" Tysa asked. Chaos nodded.

"Have you heard of…dimensional rifts?"

"What? Sort of…"

"This dimension went off the course. You can't stop the darkness here…but somewhere else you can…!" Chaos watched the silver ring reach her shoulders.

"Ariake! You're gonna—"

"Sigh…it's ok, Tysa. You know…I really glad I got to be in your body. You're a very interesting girl, Mizuki. See ya around." With that, Chaos disappeared, leaving Tysa in the room.

"Yeah…See ya around, Ariake."

End Flashback

"And…start." Tysa said as she pressed the final button. The machine slowly began to envelop a white glow, then it shot out across the room. Tysa's eyes widened as white became her only vision and she could feel herself falling in the white area. Slowly, all her feeling began to fade as she closed her eyes.

The last thing she felt was a warm hand grabbing her wrist.

I suppose you're wondering what the "Pt. 1" is about. Well, you'll find out in the sequel, Tyson's Twin V2. That is, you have patience enough with me and the series to read it. And...i'm anticipating reviews/messages about how I didn't pair Tysa up with anyone yet. Or did I...(C.B.C. grins.)(and before anyone thinks anything they shouldn't, it's not Chaos/Ariake! My cousin, who happened to be visiting, noticed that) Anyway, I decided to put the prolouge of Tyson's Twin V2 in this chapter, just so people know what the sequel is sort of like. And, yes, I sort of stole the prolouge title form Kingdom Hearts™, but only because it makes sense!

Prolouge: Another side, another story…or two?

A girl in black with a black cloak around her head and body walked into a nearby alley. She looked around, making sure no one was following her. When she was sure, she unveiled her hood, revealing long black hair and silver eyes. She held out a hand, and four different colored orbs appeared in her hand: one red, one yellow, one green, and one red.
"Please…" said the girl. "Let the last of Tysa's powers work…" After some concentration, four glowing white birds appeared.
"Listen, I know I'm not your master, but I need you to do a favor for her." The girl pleaded. "I need you to take these orbs to the guardians. Help them remember her and bring them here! It's the only way to set things right!" The birds looked skeptically at the girl, but one by one they took the orbs and flew off in different directions. The girl watched them go.
"Please, let everything be alright…"
