残り:四の影/ Remnant's Four Shadows
End of Remnant, Episode 17: Life and Death
The test for life and death was not something that was rather difficult for Yuki. The guardian of death seemed all the pleased with him while the life one was…not so much.
"You know the value of life, but you've slaughtered so many who could have good people if they were given the time." The life guardian said sternly. "All in the name of your dented morality."
"Considering the environment he endured, he could easily be a lot worse and not seen as worthy." The death guardian said to his twin. "He does understand the value of life. All of the people's he murdered had it coming."
"Yes, but a chunk of them could be fostered to be better people. Death is not the only solution, and I want him to understand that." The life guardian said gently.
"I have offered to spare people, but sometimes they act stupid before trying to kill me despite it being their best interest to run." Yuki said making his case. "I have saved as many lives as I could. I can't call myself a perfect judge, but I can cite that if I wasn't worthy to be here, I wouldn't be here."
The life guardian turned to her twin with a grimace. Death had readily said Yuki was worthy and opened his half of the staircase up. She wanted a read on the person before just opening the way up, if he was truly valuing life.
"I do value life. My friends, my family, and all those I'm fighting for. You have to fight for something…or you'll die for nothing." Yuki said.
"Yuki Azure, I…tentatively grant you passage." The life guardian said opening her half of the staircase.
As Yuki left, both guardians faded away.

[Earth, Cowboy Bebop Universe]
"We're here." Noire said coming out onto land. "Welcome to this world's Earth."
"What a shit-hole." Mercury snarked.
"Exactly. This universe, humans have mostly left Earth to terraform other planets. And I see this is the universe where Griseo has planted roots. But not on Earth." Chronoa remarked.
"So, what's the plan?" Aang asked.
"We're here to get our last set of allies before we go and take on Griseo's army. From my staff, I saw a ship called the Bebop." Noire said steadfast. "And landing here will lead us to it."
"In the middle of nowhere. Noire, you and that…"
"The Bebop?" A voice said.
Noire was revealed right again as out came a girl with the dog revealing herself as a former crewmate of the Bebop.
"Fucking Noire!" Salem spat as Noire smugly smirked.
"Yes. Radical Ed, right? We need your help…we need the crew back together for a big job. Can you call them?" Chronoa said.
The crew back together? Edward was all the eager. The Bebop crew? Not so much upon hearing Noire out.
"No." Faye said flatly. "We're not heroes, we're bounty hunters."
"Oh no, we're not here for you. Them." Noire said pointing to Pibby, Merlina, and Alloy Boy. "Those three. And now, we're all gathered. So, allow me to make a speech."

He leapt up on top on the ship and cleared his throat.
"We're all here for the same reason. That being some asshole has gathered your worst enemies both dead and alive. Sure, we're not all heroes, but I think that doesn't matter today because we don't all want to die nor being under this arrogant asshole's reign. The matter at hand is we end their coming out party…and make it a funeral. So, rest up, we camp here…and in a few days…we go to Mars and face the battle for our lives." Noire said dramatically. "But if you have any last acts before going off to a battle where you will run risk of death, do it before them."
"So can we break out the fuckin' liquor?" Johnny Gat asked.
[Cues: One Piece OST – Party Theme]
"Hell yeah!" Noire said jumping out. "We'll have plenty of time."
"Towa's gotten lazy. She's only put up a field around Mars, not on the whole universe. I'll be able to put up defenses to hide us all right under her noses if she expands her field." Chronoa remarked with a sigh. "So, I suppose you can have some down time."
"Sanji! Cook us up some meat!" Luffy said bouncing excitedly.
"…I'm going to need help." Sanji said as a few volunteered to aid.
"You know, it's only Luffy who could eat at a time like this." Nami said shaking her head. "We literally got dragged into a war in space."
"We're literally among the few people in our world have such a journey. Can any other pirate crew say they had their ship upgraded to fly into space?" Nico Robin said with a small grin. "It's fascinating."
(A/N: It's time for some explanations. But why Saints Row, of all things? It's being a part of this multiverse is a bit of a mirroring to another. However, for those curious to how many franchises we'll be seeing, I won't list them all. I think it's simply best to say that the only franchise I assure you won't show up directly is Dragon Ball (aside from Chronoa and Towa). The end is coming, and show's soon to close!)
