Okay they're one more chapter. I did finish writing the two of them together. So I will type them both up and get up as soon as I can. Yeah it's finally over. Took my time didn't I? But I had fun with this story. And the next wild arms one will be a bit because I really need to get another Bleach chapter out before I even think about starting that one. Well thanks to everyone who liked the story and thanks for reading.

Chapter 45: The Key and The Final Act

We hurried back to Baskar colony.

Something wasn't right in Baskar colony. That was for sure. The villagers all looked lost and confused. How far had memories been taken away?!

We quickly entered Gallows house. We saw it as soon as we entered. She was gone.

"Sara!" Virginia yelled. Some blood was on the floor where she had been inside that barrier. H-Had Beatrice got to her?!

"Could Beatrice gone after her when…we had been in the dream world?" Clive asked out loud. "how can you act so claim about this?" Gallows asked. "hmm…truth be told. I really don't know…" Clive quickly said."…Did Beatrice break the barrier…Sara had made?" I asked checking the blood on the floor. "Most likely…that barrier she made from her own power. Only a handful of people could break it. I couldn't even break it." Gallows told me.

"We need to find Beatrice before she uses Sara and everyone's memories really do all disappear." Virginia spoke up.

We still have time.

But how much time…Do we really have?

"Find her…but where is Beatrice now?" Clive asked. "She maybe at the Ark of Destiny." I spoke up. "the Ark of destiny?" Virginia asked. "Yeah…She was saying something about the Ark remember?" I asked Virginia.

The yggdrasil's generator is in the final activation phase inside the Ark of destiny. All there is left to do now is to blow up this nightmare castle with you in it, to generate the energy needed for creation. The birth cry of my new creation can be heard at the Ark of destiny.

"That's right!" Virginia cried. "Most likely…Beatrice took Sara to the Ark of destiny with her." Clive quickly said. "Then what are we waiting for? We got ya get over there!" Gallows yelled. "yeah, let's hurry to the Ark of destiny before things really get bad!" Virginia yelled, we nodded to her and hurried are way out of Baskar colony and hurry are way to the Ark of destiny.

At the Ark of destiny…

"Miss…this is a surprise…what are you doing here all by yourself?" Lamium asked me as he got up from his chair. "R-Run…!" I yelled to him as my left hand slowly started to point my Arms toward him. "What? What is the meaning of this?" He asked. "Please run! She's using me…to try to kill you! You must run for it!" I yelled as my left hand let out a shot. I quickly put my right Arm in the way.

Then Beatrice appeared next to me. "Stop, fighting me just give it up! You're a weapon so start acting like one!" Beatrice yelled to me. "I-I am not a weapon! I'm a human with my own thoughts and feelings!" I yelled trying to hold my left arm down. "Foolish…is all you are…" Beatrice told me.

"Saint? What is the meaning of this? What have you done to this girl?" Lamium asked. "Hehe…you still call me Saint how funny is this?" Beatrice asked herself as she started to laugh. "What do you mean?" He asked. "She's not-not a saint! She's a dream demon from another world! She's been using everyone…to make it there to get to her goal!" I cried.

"A-Dream demon?" Lamium asked. "Shut up, I did not ask you to speak! So shut up and don't speak again!" Beatrice yelled sending a force against my left Arm. "Ahhh…" I Cried. "Please! Do not hurt her! It's me…your after anyways right?" Lamium asked. "Lamium…" I whispered. "Then…let's the fun begin!" Beatrice said with a laugh.

We quickly entered the Ark of destiny; we all felt it.

"This sensation…are we too late!?" Gallows asked. "If the yggdrasil generator attached to the Ark of destiny is creating a dream-demon's Filgaia, then yes!" I yelled.

Damnit…

"Let's hurry! This planet and Sara and Lamium are in danger!" Virginia yelled as the four hurried up toward Lamium's room. Soon the four pass by Maya and her team. "You don't have to turn around. All you have to do is look forward." Maya told Virginia. "Maya!? What are you doing here?" Virginia asked her. "I've found my next target…It's a monument gem that sparkles blue like none other…one day, I will return this planet to its blue state, and make it mine…I've decided to become the first president of the united states of Filgaia!" may told Virginia.

"Oh, come on, Maya…that can be taken as act of aggression." Virginia said. "So, what's your point? Are you going to do something about it as defender of justice?" Maya asked her. "We'll stop you." Virginia told her. "Fine…then, just make sure you come back alive. I mean, you're the only ones who stand a chance against us." Maya quickly said. "Thanks, Maya…" Virginia said before we hurried on our way to Lamium's room.

Monsters soon came closer to Maya and her team. "Hmph! Have they no manners? They're in the presence of a future ruler, here!" Maya yelled. "Milady! This is a perfect opportunity to repay them for their honor!" Todd spoke up. "yeah…I'm sure Sis thinks so, too…but…" Alfred started to say. "She's too stubborn to admit it." Shady added in. "oh, be quiet! Put your skills where your mouth is! Schroedingers…prepare to go all out!!" Maya yelled.

---

As we entered the room Lamium shielded us from Beatrice's attack.

"Ughhh…" Lamium said as he fell to the floor. "Lamium why did you shield us…!?" Virginia asked. "I…too…have now…finally…seen the truth…I was...deceived…and used…by the dream-demon…everything…I have done…worked for…my ideology…has been…disgraced…Even so…I still have…hope…for the future…" Lamium whispered weakly. "Com on, Lamium!!" Virginia cried.

Lamium didn't answer he was gone. Beatrice stood at the top of the balcony looking down toward us. She stretched her hand out as blackness appeared under us. We quickly sink into it.

"Lamium will always be an ignorant man…If he didn't shield you, he would have lived on, dreaming…The electrical field of the 25th dimension is the dream world of humans, In other words, a world of eternal darkness, dark within your mind…that world is where I rule…It's easy to control reasoning…" Beatrice said.

You don't understand a thing!!

Virginia yelled as we appeared before Beatrice.

"Eternal darkness might exist deep down within people's hearts…but…there…though it may be small, you'll also find a sparkle of relentless hope!!" Virginia yelled. "Impossible! How did you escape the cage of darkness!?" Beatrice asked. "Lamium…the man who was most worried and troubled about the future of this planet and its people, opened a path with his ray of hope! It was a very faint light that eventually disappeared, but I will do my best to honor his memory that lights the way to the future!" Virginia yelled.

"So, you wish to avenge this death? Or ignite the flames of hatred for all life on Filgaia? Heeheehee…are you going to swallow me and destroy me inside the darkness that fills your heart?" Beatrice asked. Virginia quickly pulled out her Arms and pointed them toward Beatrice. "I will not let you become anyone's memory!!" Virginia yelled to her. Beatrice then came toward us.

We fought her again. And we did beat her again. She disappeared but we could still hear her voice.

Heeheehee…I see…So you'll fight for all life living on Filgaia…to protect their memories…that's fine with me. Beatrice told us.

Soon we saw Sara appear before us. She was floating. "Sara!" Virginia cried. "Too bad, she can't hear you. How touching this would be if she could hear you.Heeheehee…" Beatrice laughed. "What's that mark on the left side of her body?" Gallows asked. "That's…that's the seal mark. But…but it shouldn't be. I used the gem of sealing on her." I quickly said. "Heeheehee…that's right. I have gain the control of the left side of her body! A weapon is a weapon! Even if she continue to fight me!" Beatrice told us. "But…it's time to use her!" Beatrice yelled as energy surrounded Sara. "Sara!" I yelled. "N-no…I-I will not-not let you-you use this power to hurt Filgaia or its people!" Sara yelled fighting back.

"How dare you! Fine! If you will not let me use it! I'll drain it out of you!" Beatrice yelled. "Ahhhhhhh!" Sara screamed as she disappeared. "SARA!" I Yelled.

"Foolish! She thought she could stop me! Heeheehee…It is born! My filgaia born from her power and life on Filgaia will eat you alive!" Beatrice told us. "I will become the mother of Filgaia!" Beatrice told us.

Then a weird monster appeared before us. "Don't tell me this thing here is supposed to be her Filgaia…Is this some kind of joke?" Gallows asked. "Yes, the Filgaia Theory! How the world is a single life entity. It seems to be at its larval stage now, but it will grow, and mature into a true threat!" Clive told us. "Then we have to stop it now…It may just be another Filgaia, but its will is that of Beatrice! And maybe we can save sara is we stop it!" Virginia yelled.

"I'm sure it doesn't have a liking for us, either…Let's do it!!" I yelled.

Why did it have to come to this?

Beatrice had forced Sara to use her power.

And I couldn't stop it from happening…

But…

I would make up for it…by destroying…Beatrice's Filgaia.

That was the only way…to save her now.

We then fought Nega Filgaia…we did damage to it…but then it transformed into a new form. A bigger form I guess you could say. Again after we did some damage to it; it transformed into another form. This time only magic could hurt it. Then it transformed again. This time it turned into four monsters. We took the four out with gatlings then it transformed again.

This time it transform into two like dragon monsters. After we did some damage to it; it transformed again. This time it was a huge dragon with wings. After we did a gatlings or two it transformed again. This time into a cat like monster.

After we did some damage it transformed again. This time it turned into a bug like monster with two small bugs beside it. After we did some damage to it; it transformed again. Into another wing monsters with two bugs beside it again.

And finally it transformed again. Could this be its final form?

Soon we heard Beatrice's voice.

If it's a nightmare you seek then a nightmare you'll get…one that never ends, and one you cannot wake from. Rot in my endless nightmare!! Beatrice's voice yelled.

And so we took on her true Filgaia. It took time…but we did take it out.

Heeheehee…

My Filgaia and I have been Defeated…

But your Filgaia will come to an end as well…

My Filgaia and your Filgaia…everything is composed of opposites: Day and Night, Positive and negative…Everything is structured to cancel each other out. Just like my Filgaia in the dream world, and your Filgaia…the connected world will also perish with my demise…they will eventually expel, each other…everything will come to an End… you…me…everything will be engulfed in nothingness…

Heeheeheeheeheeheeheeheeheeheeheeheehee…

Soon after that Virginia woke up in a large white room with no one but her father.

"daddy…!? Daddy where are we?" She asked him. "This is the horizon. Everything has transformed into memories, and all the memories have gathered here at the horizon…" Werner told her. "The horizon…?" Virginia asked. "An interval between reality and the dream world…the horizon that separates the two worlds. And…the emulator zone, known as the information library, Hyades." Werner told Virignia. "This is Hyades…? A white world of nothingness…Did our Filgaia end up like this? Just a void…? Oh…so we weren't able to accomplish anything…" Virginia said as she looked to the floor.

"An existence will one day cease to exist. And this existence is nothing but a mere memory to begin with…Existence is a form of memory passed down through history." Werner told Virginia. "We all fought so hard to protect everyone's memories…But I guess…wait a minute! Memories!! If Filgaia and all life living there are a form of memory then all we have to do is create memories again! Everyone of us has to gather up the memories we have toward the future! And this is a horizon where all the memories are gathered!!" Virginia yelled and took out the old Terminal and its start to shine.

"If Beatrice was able to create a Filgaia from memories…then if I use this terminal to unify everyone's memories as one, Filgaia may once again…" Virginia started to say. "And likewise, we use the yggdrasil system's generator that was transformed into memories! It will take a miracle for this to succeed, this is an unlikely conicdience, but do you believe it will work?" Werner asked her.

"Coincidence is a part of fate. We're not just leaving this miracle to chance, my efforts and everyone else's will unify the Filgaia that's in our hearts into a form, It's a Filgaia from our memories so it might be a bit dusty but we can all work to change that!" Virginia told her father. "Creating a Filgaia from memories…that is the same game plan as the dream-demon, but will it work? But if indeed it is possible, jet's memories will also be included…If we still have his memories of the former Filgaia, then maybe…just maybe the Filgaia of before will arise…This is like planting a single seed into the wastle land…It will be a miracle if it blooms…" Werner said.

"I know it'll work, Daddy. I'm not alone…and plus, a miracle is a reward you get for giving it your best, at lease that's what I think…or else the fruits of our efforts won't be worth the price…" Virginia said as the terminal glows outshining everything.

When Virginia came too she was back in the ark of destiny. She saw the three boys staring toward her.

"Is everyone…alive…?" She asked us. I looked to Gallows and Clive with a confused look. They gave me the same look back. "You're the one who was out cold until now…" Gallows told her. "The world…is Filgaia still here!?" She asked again. I slowly nodded to her.

She quickly lunged at me and huggled me. "What the hell is wrong with you?" I asked her. "Yes! Yes! We all made it!" Virginia cried. "Yes, we all made it back safely." Clive said with a smile.

Jet then pushed Virginia off him. He's face quickly turned red. "I guess…any girl will do that to you huh?" Sara asked me. "S-Shut up!" I yelled at her. "Sara! Are you alright?" Virginia asked. "Yes, I'm fine." Sara quickly said. "She reappeared after Beatrice's Filgaia was beaten. She appears to be fine. Well not counting her right hand…" Clive said rubbing the back of his head. "It's only a cut." Sara quickly said.

"That isn't a cut. You had a bullet in your hand…" I glared toward her. She glared back at me before looking away from me. "Just look at that…they have only been back together for ten minutes and they're fighting. Well I guess that's love birds for ya!" Gallows said with a laugh.

I quickly kick him in the face. "you…want to say that again?!" I asked glaring at him. "N…no." Gallows said under my shoe. Clive and Virginia quickly laughed. Virginia slowly got to her feet. She looked down to where Lamium's body lay.

"Lamium…we'll bring forth filgaia's future you wanted…" Virginia whispered to herself. Just then bullets came flying a few feet from where Virginia stood. She saw Albert standing over Lamium's body.

"W-what are you doing up there…? D-Did you do this…? Wh-Why did you kill the founder!?" Albert asked her. "No…wait! It's not what you think! You've got it all wrong!" Virginia cried as he started shooting again. I pulled her down. "E-Everyone! In here the founder! The founder has been…" Albert yelled out the door.

"Talk about bad timing the worst! But they're pretty green at fighting. We could still fight our way out…" Gallows said. "No, we can't do that!!" Virginia cried. "…She left us…something to deal with. What away to get even with us…" Sara whispered. "We have no other choice! We're been showered with fire before! What's the different now!? Don't tell me we're commitin' suicide!" I yelled to her. "No, nothing like that! We're not going to lay down our lives!" Virginia told us. "Then how the hell do we get out of this pinch?" I asked.

"You are the leader. If you have a way out, we will follow your orders." Clive told her. Virginia took out her arms and we followed her lead. But then Virginia dropped her bullets out. "The first hurdle I had to overcome after becoming a drifter was…the fact that my concept of what justice is doesn't always hold true in the wasteland…But still, an unwavering sense of justice lies within me. It complets me to hold true to my convictions. I won't let my feelings waver. I'm going to carry through. That's my definition of Justice, we've travelled the right path up until now, haven't we? We may have stumbled, but we did the right thing right?" Virginia asked.

"Yeah, I think so. There's no way we would live slavishly." Gallows quickly said. "Then we won't need Arms anymore. Let's just hold our heads high and run out!!" Virginia said. I could hear people moving around us. "Fine…fine…I'm in. But I'm not accompanying you to the otherworld. I don't have enough memories yet. I'm not goin' out until I have enough memories just like everyone else." I told her. "You are an unpredictable leader…just like a storm. Whether to believe this storm can blow away all our problems is the question…" Clive quickly said. "A storm, huh. You said it…It reminds me of that stormy night on the train where we all met by coincidence. But I never thought the last stop would turn out like this…" Gallows said shaking his head a bit. "We all have chance sec that night. In good and bad ways; But that just how life is…even if it can be unfair at times. Everything happens for a reason as they say." Sara said.

"A coincidence is a part of fate. I'm really, really glad I met all of you. We had come rough time together, but more than anything, it was fun. It was fun because I was with you. Our memories together can't be bought by any treasure right?" Virginia asked.

Then the others let all they're bullets fall to the floor as well.

"Our every step is always headed toward the future…" Virginia said as they all jumped off the balcony suprising the ark of destiny members.

Our Memories into the Future…
