Phoenix, covered in cosmic flames, returns to Earth. His eyes were still as fiery as the sun.

He was Ethan Morgan, the sweet, awkward boy who had the power to see things from people through physical contact. Ethan would never do anything bad or evil. Now he is Dark Phoenix, a destroyer of the universe who has the power to control anything.

Once he hit the ground of the Earth, he was in the middle of the Whitechapel Park. The swings and slides were melting in some form of way and breaking into pieces. People, who were jogging around the park, stopped and looked at Phoenix.

Then, Phoenix headed to a familiar house. The house was so familiar. With its scent, texture, and everything, Phoenix was suddenly disappearing and bringing back—

"Ethan?" said Samantha from the side of the stairs.

"Who did you think it was?" He chuckled. "Krueger on elm street?"

"Jane, Ross, get down here," shouted Samantha. "Ethan's here!"

Samantha hugs her son and pulls back. "What are you doing here, Ethan? Why are you here?"

"Something's wrong with me, Mom," said Ethan.

Ross and Jane came down. Ross asked, "Ethan, you shouldn't be here. You need to be at the hospital."

"I'm fine," answered Ethan. "They released me earlier."

"He looks fine, Ross." said Samantha. "Ethan, what's wrong?"

"I had this horrible image that I-I attacked my friends, Mom. I was trying to kill them."

"What?"

"Ethan, you don't look so good," said Jane.

"You look like you should go jump off a cliff," said Ethan.

"For god's sake, Ethan, what's gotten into you?" asked Ross. "Are you even Ethan at all?"

"I don't know, Ross. You tell me."

Ethan looks out the window. He murmurs, "They're here. I have to go!"

"Ethan, wait!" yelled Samantha.

Phoenix went through the back door attempting to escape. Before he could fly up into the air, Rory jumped on top of him and planted the metal headband onto Phoenix's head.

"Argh!" screamed Phoenix. He angrily yanks Rory off of him.

"Ethan!" screamed Samantha.

Benny appeared next to them. "We'll explain everything later," he said to them. "Just get in the house!"

He escorted Ross, Jane, and Samantha back into the safety of the house.

Phoenix struggles to rip the headband off of his head.

"Isn't Ethan suppose to be coming back now?" I asked Fallon.

"Phoenix is struggling and concentrating on the headband, while Ethan is returning to himself," she answered.

Phoenix began to shoot lightning at us.

"He's shooting at us," shrieked Rory. "Why the hell is he shooting at us?"

"I will destroy you all!" screamed Phoenix.

"Where's your dignity?!" Jesse shouted at Phoenix. "Fight me like the powerful man you think you are!"

"Very well then," said Phoenix.

Phoenix floated down to the bottom and lurched toward us.

Jesse swung his arm at him. Phoenix ducks and throws a punch at Jesse. Jesse shields the punch with his forearm and kicked his leg at the head of Phoenix. Phoenix abruptly caught Jesse's ankle and twists it. The vampire let out a grunt of pain once Phoenix throws him at the fence.

After Jesse hits the fence, Rory, on the other side of the yard, tackles Phoenix to the ground. Both of them were at each other's throats until Phoenix kicks Rory's body off of him.

Erica successfully stops Rory. Phoenix hops back on his feet and runs toward them.

"Ashes, ashes," Rory chanted as he and Erica locked their hands together. He then swung Erica and her feet hit Phoenix in the face. "We all fall down!"

Phoenix hits the ground and Benny jumps on him gripping his throat.

"Phoenix, it's over," Benny grunted through his clenched teeth. "Let him go."

"Benny, do what you need to do," said Ethan's voice from Ethan's lips. "Just put me out of my misery already!"

Benny paused at the moment and stared at him. "E-Ethan?"

Unexpectedly, Benny flew off of Phoenix and slammed onto the wall of the Morgan house. Phoenix slowly stood up and yanked the headband off of his head. As he grinned villainously, he crushed the headband with his bear hands.

"You pathetic worthless beings of earth!" Phoenix hissed. "You think that you can defeat me? Think again!"

"Ethan!" I burst out. He turns to me.

"Sweet…Sarah," he breathed.

"I know you're still in there, Ethan. I know you are."

"Phoenix is here now."

"Go ahead! Destroy me!"

"Sarah, no," yelled Benny.

"Just get it over with! I don't care whether I die again or not. I just want my Ethan back. Ethan…this isn't who you are. You're nothing like this. You're brave…smart…incredible. Don't let it control you anymore."

Phoenix glared at me with a blank face. His body was shaking with fear. At last, a familiar voice spoke from him, "No one is strong enough to stop him, Sarah."

"You are," I replied. "You are, Ethan and you know that."

Suddenly, Ethan's body spasm out of control and he drops to his knees. Behind him was the friendly earth priestess, Grandma Weir.

"Grandma, what have you done to him?" I demanded.

"I had to do that, Sarah," she explained. "He only had that chance of control."

Ethan's body flowed orange and my body flew back onto the ground. Everyone else was on the ground as well.

Grandma Weir was lying on the ground face to face with the Phoenix.

"Foolish Evelyn," laughed Phoenix. "Your magic would never stand a chance against me."

"I have no other choice, Phoenix," said Grandma. "You were never good to begin with."

"Are you going to destroy me again?"

"I can…I will."

Phoenix floats up into the air and surrounds himself with the cosmic flame form. Grandma raises her arm up to the air and yellow lightning struck at Phoenix.

Fallon appeared next to Grandma and blasted blue lightning at Phoenix.

"Xineohp dlihc fo ssenkrad dna thgil," they both said.

"What are they saying?" I asked.

"Phoenix, child of darkness and light," Jesse translated.

"Uoy esu rewop rof ruoy sthgif."

"Uoy era oot gnorts htiw lla ruoy thgim."

"You are too strong with all your might."

Benny then joined in with them blasting green lightning at Phoenix.

"Eht gnuoy rees tnew hguorht lla fo ruoy segats."

"The young seer went through all of your stages."

"Fo eht drib fo erif nrob erofeb lla sega."

"Of the bird of fire born before all ages."

The blistering bird raises it's hands to the sky and shrieks.

"Yb eht rewop detsev ni em!"

"By the power vested in me."

As they said the spell, I began to cry as I gazed up at the Phoenix. Ethan, please come back!

"Krad xineohp fo lleh I tes uoy eerf!"

"Dark Phoenix of hell I set you free!"

Their lighting combined together and formed into a bigger lightning strike. Suddenly, the cosmic flames slowly rose up to the surface of the sky. The wind was slowing down as the flames disappeared into the sky.

Once they were gone, something was falling out of the sky. Ethan!

"He's falling," I pointed out.

"I got him," yelled Rory. "I got him. I got him."

Rory leaped into the air and successfully catches Ethan in the air. As he floated back down to the ground, I sprinted over towards them.

Ethan was weakly unconscious and naked. Rory handed him to me and I cradled him in my arms as I drop to my knees.

"Ethan?" I panted. "Ethan? Ethan, please! Ethan!"

Her eyes fluttering as he gasped, "Sarah…I'm sorry. I-I-Its too late."

"No."

"Farewell…"

Suddenly, Ethan stopped shaking. His eyes were left wide open and his lungs stopping inhaling and exhaling.

"Ethan?" I whispered. "Ethan!"

He didn't respond or even move. Once his last heartbeat occured, I began to cry.

"From the beginning…you were planning to do this all along," I cried out to the sky. "You knew that we would destroy you so you made us destroy him too. You…stupid…sack of dog shit! How dare you?!" I looked back down at Ethan's lifeless body and yanked it against my chest. "Oh, Ethan…NO!"
