"So, what do we do now?" Aza asked NIGHTS.
NIGHTS didn't immediately replied, he still hasn't gotten over Gavin's sacrifice for his sister. He blamed Wizeman for what happened.
"Why didn't Reala warn us?" He thought." I mean, he never did harmed Aza. But why didn't he tell us about this kind of threat?" This causes him to think that his brother was actually playing a trick on Aza.
Suddenly the whole plaza was engulfed with indescribable darkness.
"Great, just great. Wizeman's looking for Aza," Corvus said." I guess he must have heard that Gemini has been defeated."
"Let's get you out of here my dear!" Owl exclaimed as he took hold of the white ribbon on her neck.
"Too late, the darkness has ascended" NIGHTS said.
In no time the whole area was covered with darkness, just like Aza saw in the nightmare that she was supposed to have when she first arrived.
"Do you think Wizeman aims to take my ideyas?" Aza asked her companions as she clutched into NIGHTS arm.
"No doubt about that", NIGHTS answered her. "He's coming for you."
"So what's the plan NIGHTS?" Corvus asked.
"We have to fight Wizeman then. If he gets hold of all her ideyas, then all of Nightopia would be lost."
Corvus and Owl gave NIGHTS a worried look that Aza didn't immediately understand.
"Are you sure about doing it? I mean Wizeman IS powerful, there's no knowing what will happen if you fight."
"If we don't try, then all of our strength is useless. I won't just stand and see Nightopia be wrecked by my mad and heartless creator."
"If you're going to fight Wizeman, then take me with you", Aza said.
"Aza it's going to be dangerous, he might harm you."
"I'm doing this not only for the sake of Nightopia, but also to protect my beloved dreams", Aza said firmly. "I won't let them be taken from me."
NIGHTS knew that she was right, there's no way he can deny it. But he also knew that he had dragged enough in the midst of trouble if he allowed her to come.
"Alright you can come", he said to her. "But you'll be dualized with me."
"Ok."
"I'm coming as well", Corvus said. "You might need me."
NIGHTS nodded in agreement. As he dualized with Aza, they then flew to Nightmare to finish the final battle. But as they flew, Corvus noticed that NIGHTS had a sad face. And he knew what it meant.
"Their time together is running short", he thought. "And it won't be long until I tell them the truth either."
NIGHTS could feel his heart breaking slowly as they flew. For he knew that his time with Aza was slowly ending, he had become attached to her since they met. At first, he thought that she was like everyone else that he encountered. But she was someone different. He couldn't bear to tell her the truth, for she still had to recover from her lost.
"NIGHTS is there something wrong?" Aza asked, she was beginning to feel insecure about their silence.
NIGHTS snapped out of his thoughts. "What? No nothing's wrong, just a little bit sidetracked." He knew that he just lied; he had never been sidetracked before.
As they arrived in front of Castle Nightmare, they found their path blocked by Reala and Jackle.
"I'm sorry but you shall not pass beyond this point", Reala said to them.
"And I've thought you've change", NIGHTS said sarcastically at him.
Reala could see Aza's shocked face; he couldn't bear to look at her directly after what happened.
I work for Wizeman and I'm going to do my duty. Even if it means hurting you, Aza, Reala said. He made them believe that he was really loyal to his master, but in truth he was in pain to say those words.
Aza fell for the trick, now she was really convince that he was toying with her.
"I don't want to do this either, but we had our orders", Jackle said sadly as he slowly took out his cards." I confess that I like you a whole lot Azalea."
"NIGHTS if we fight them we'll be worn out when we fight Wizeman", Aza whispered to him. How are we going to get through this?"
Corvus saw that Aza was whispering something to NIGHTS, so he volunteered to fight them himself.
"You'll probably dead if you continue it", Reala said mockingly.
"I'll protect my friends with all my life even if it means I have to die, brother."
"Brother?!" They all exclaimed.
"Yes I am your brother NIGHTS, Reala", he said.
Corvus then revealed that he was none other but an incomplete creation of Wizeman. After he was given a body and consciousness, he knew that his master was doing something wrong, so he escaped Nightmare to avoid being used, without even getting his rightful power. He said that if he was complete, he was now a second level Nightmaren. But he chose to do the right path.
"You guys go ahead, I'll hold them", Corvus said.
"Wait! Are you going to be okay?" Aza said concerned.
"Don't worry. I may be incomplete, but I've got a few tricks that I've learned."
"Be careful", NIGHTS said to his brother.
"I will."
So Corvus battled Jackle and Reala as NIGHTS and Aza did their part to defeat Wizeman. Aza didn't know that it will be the last time she will see Corvus.
"I hope to meet you again someday", he thought to Aza as he saw them away.
