The strength of a lion. The speed of an eagle. The force of a rushing river. It took all of these and more to defeat L-Drago. Every time Pegasus was struck with an attack, the three bladers and their bey spirits felt it as well. But they didn't quit. Quitting was no longer an option. Instead they poured more of their own power into Pegasus, bolstering the winged horse's strength with their own. The spectators in the crowd cheered louder, their hopeful wishes countering the evil malice of the Dark Power. Each attack was give and take, and at times it seemed too close to call. But in the end there was only one victor.

Pegasus.

The three-headed dragon gave a dying roar as Gingka and Pegasus landed the final blow. With L-Drago defeated, the Dark Power could no longer keep its grip on the spirits it had taken. The souls of defeated bladers and beys escaped, racing home towards their proper bodies.

Three of those spirits raced towards the hospital where Hikaru, Tsubasa, and Kyoya slept.


A/N: First, I want to give a big thank-you to all of my readers and reviewers. Your kind words have really encouraged me! I'd especially like to thank goctyudicbdkvhb175749674 and TheMidnightEcho for all their reviews. Just one more chapter to wrap everything up, and then we're done here. It's almost a shame, really - it was a fun ride while it lasted.

Stay awesome, my cool cats. ;)
