Hello there, welcome to the final chapter of the story.
And since today is December 31, this will be my last post of the year.
Currently enjoying my Christmas gift, the PSVita with the games of Persona 4 Golden (which is awesome) and Soul Sacrifice (a good game).
Saw the VGX 2013 awards. From the announced games I am hyped up with the new Titanfall, Quantum Break, and Destiny trailers while for new games, the one that really caught my attention was Hello Games' No Man's Sky. This game really caught my interest, hope it comes out for a next-gen console.
Also I would like to state that Noble1998 has taken my Halo/Infinite Stratos challenge and has posted the first chapter to his new story called 'Infinite Reclaimer'. Give it a read, it's awesome.
Disclaimer: I do not own anything except for the plot of this story and my OC. This is for pure entertainment.
Also, forgive my grammar, English is my second language.
Hope you enjoy.

Chapter 3:
Location- Same as last time, 25 years later
We see that the energy dome has not changed at all in the last twenty five years. However, on this day, something changed.
The dome all of a sudden began to shake around, causing the earth around the dome to crack. Then the dome began to decrease in size. It took 5 minutes for the dome to shrink and disappear into something that was in the middle of what was the dome.
Kneeling in the middle of the now scorched area was none other than Edward himself. However, there was something very different about him.
First Edward was naked from the waist up, revealing that his entire upper body had scars all over it except in his head; his muscles also seen to have increased as well. Also, below his waist, his pants were ruined and he has barefoot. Another thing was that was different was his watch, which now looked like a black cybernetic gauntlet that covered half of Edward's left arm. The other thing was that on his right hand he was holding a long black sword while his left hand held a black gun, both things radiated power. Edward also seemed to have aged as he now looked to be in his late thirties.
In short, Edward looked like he just went through a war.
But that was not all, another different thing about him were the large wings coming out of his back.
The wings coming out his back were almost his size. He had two sets of wings, and both sets of wings kept changing colors, which were sapphire blue and blood red, though sometimes they become darkness black.
(Picture Arael's wings, the 15th Angel from Evangelion)
Also, not only did Edward's physical appearance changed, but his aura as well. If someone were to be there, they would have felt that the aura Edward was giving out was that darkness, but instead of feeling evil and despair from it, one would have felt serenity and hope from it. Edward's aura was also giving out the sense that he was not only powerful but he was also a leader.
If you want to know how this happened to Edward, then you will know.
===================RON==========================
Flashback Summary:
Edward began his training inside his mindscape by learning how to use and possibly upgrade all powers that came from the Angels. He even suffered when he decided to grow an S2 Engine, which he managed to do but barely and because of it, while he gained another source of potentially infinite energy, he had to retrain with his powers again. It took him two years to do this. Thank god for shadow clones.
So from the third year to the fifth year, Edward concentrated on training more powers and physical activities, as well as of learning about technology, politics, theories, etc. Edward's clones on the outside were gaining more powers and knowledge from other realities, as well as gaining resources for future uses, like money and weapons.
One example of a huge amount of weapons left lying around would be Halo; meaning, do you know how many weapons and ammo crates are in Halo: Reach alone, thank god for infinite subspace storage. While an example for money was the treasure from Treasure Planet, the 2002 animated universe (it was easy stealing the Map/Key and going through the portal and not activating the trap); and the treasure from the mines of Erebor (having invisibility and super speed really helped in avoiding Smaug, though the invisibility did not help since for some damn reason all the versions of Smaug he stole from could smell any type of metal, and that included the iron in Edward's body)
He also ordered some clones to gain information databases, like gaining the Ancient Repository from Stargate (since Blacklight would allow his brain to adapt to the information and using the A.T. Field to make sure no ascended can detect him), consuming a Stargate version of Merlin that was in stasis, consuming any Forerunner scientist he could find (Edward had no problem doing this since the Forerunners technically destroyed his species, so hello revenge) and a trade between an Asgard race from Stargate for their entire database in exchange for several Flowers of Life from Robotech since the flower could cure their cloning problem (The bloody Flower was inside the SDF-1 the entire time and humanity never found out about until it was too late).
Edward downloaded the entire Asgard Computer Core into himself since by mastering Ireul's, the Eleventh Angel aka the Computer Angel; powers then Edward was able to turn his cells into biological computer circuits, thus allowing to interact not only with computers but also do the same functions as the Core could as well, like the Matter Materialization, which Edward later on he upgraded with Merlin's knowledge, so now Edward could do the same thing as Merlin's molecular construction device could, make anything as long as he knew how it was made. Edward began training on how to use this new ability in combat by creating weapons or anything useful quickly in battle, like Shirou Emiya's tracing ability.
He also began of ways to upgrade and/or combine the technology he was amassing, and when he discovered something useful, he would upgrade it to his watch, which kept changing form.
So after five years of training and research, Edward knew that he needed help in order to train more. After looking at potential trainers that would help him and keep his secret, he only found one that would do it. So with much dread and fear, Edward contacted the only person who could train him; Zelretch, the Wizard Marshall from the Nasuverse.
So imagine Edward's surprise when he sent a clone to contact him to ask for training, Zelretch himself appeared in his mindscape and immediately said that he would train him. When asking how was he inside his mindscape and why he would do it, he said Carl already convinced him and as payment, Carl restored Zelretch's youth and told him how to enter Edward's mindscape. For some reason Edward could not know if to either thank or curse Carl. Also, just before training began, Edward sent an order along with supplies, tech and instructions to a company to build something for him that would take years to complete.
To say those twenty years under Zelretch's teachings were a pain would be an understatement, it was a nightmare. Zelretch would either make his training regiment into a funny prank or into a serious and painful exercise. Now you might think that with the Horse Talisman and other healing powers it would not be so much of a problem, but one thing is having the injury another thing is still feeling the phantom pain of the injury even after is healed; Edward allowed some scars to remain permanently, mostly as a reminder and to somewhat showoff. But even though it was rough, Edward can say that the pain was worth it.
For the first thing Zelretch or Zel for short, taught Edward to do first was to completely master his dimensional powers since it was familiar to Zel's Kaleidoscope. He even helped him upgrade Leliel's dimensional powers to allow Edward modified any pocket dimension the way he wants, like for example, time outside is a day and inside the pocket dimension is a year.
Five years later however, Edward's mindscape began to destabilize and then out of nowhere, darkness appeared and attacked Edward and Zel. The two fought against the darkness for a while until Zel was able to stop it temporarily.
Using his knowledge, Zel discovered something important about Edward. He discovered that Edward's origin and element before gaining Blacklight was actually Darkness. However, it appeared that his darkness was actually the original Darkness, not the current known Darkness that everyone thinks is evil.
To put it into simple terms, the Darkness from Edward's original universe in the beginning was actually good and serene. However, the Big Bang occurred, bringing Light into Darkness' territory, thus from that event, Light committed the first crime ever, trespassing (Edward immediately thought of Nekron from DC). Darkness tried to rightfully fight back but as time went by and the Light made more and more beings think Light was good while Darkness was a monster. And well the Darkness tried to resist but as the old saying goes:
'Get treated like a monster, become a monster.'
So in the end, the Darkness became the monster that everyone thinks it is. Edward's element and origin explained why he was so good at using Blacklight, since their primary nature is to consume.
Immediately after this Zel began to teach Edward on how to master his Darkness, like shadow blasts to shadow travels. So after much grueling work, Edward managed to master his element to the point that his body was like a logia user from One Piece, he could even do some of the attacks that Blackbeard could do, except for the power cancelling one. As a gift for finishing his Darkness training, Zel had an idea for a summoning contract for Edward and after a risky experiment, the contract was made.
One trick Edward decided to emulate was that of Noctis Lucis Caelum, the main character from Final Fantasy XV. Using a combination of his molecular construction ability, telekinesis from the Rooster Talisman, and invisibility from the Snake Talisman; he could do Noctis' weapon appearing/floating/attack trick.
Edward also learned how to do a different version of Structural Grasp from Zel, which combined with his ability to create anything he knows and how it's made, well, Edward could now copy just about anything, including weapons. Non magical weapons like guns, swords, shields to name a few; he can create without any problems and store them for later use, though he can also create magical weapons, but these weapons unlike other things he is able to create only remain during the battle and after it they disappear, and there is also the fact that the weapon has to allow him to use him.
One weapon he was able to copy with the help of Zel and somehow became real was the Black Excalibur that Saber Alter from Fate/Stay Night uses. The only theory that both Edward and Zel have been able to determine of why the sword became real is that since Edward's element and origin is darkness, then the sword responded to him since it was a sword of darkness. Edward began to rigorously train on how to use the sword to it's full potential.
Edward also went to the Star Wars universe and consumed Admiral Nial Declann in order to get not only the basic understanding of the Force but also how to do Battle Meditation.
Also, three years after gaining B. Excalibur, Edward remembered something from an old graphic novel he read that involved Excalibur. He decided to test it with Zel's blessing. He first managed to create, with the sword's blessing, a second copy of itself. Then he sent a clone with the second Excalibur to the LTORverse, timeline wise before Sauron took residence in Mount Doom. There, using the magma from the volcano, Edward was able to melt down the sword and after a grueling session inside the mountain, he was able to reforged the Excalibur into a gun.
The new gun looked like a black M9 Beretta. The gun itself could fire dark energy shots from Edward's own darkness, shot metal bullets made of Edward's own biological iron, which upon contact with a person's body, the bullet will begin to eat the person like if Edward was trying to consume them, only really slow. Edward created this type of shot for the gun based on Fate/Stay Night's Kiritsugu's Origin Bullets. Edward decided to call his new gun Exbeta.
Years later, the training came to an end when Zel ordered him one final test before leaving, he ordered Edward to use the Tiger Talisman to separate and fight his light side. It was established that since Edward's Darkness was good, then by the laws of opposites then his light would be evil. So Edward had to defeat his light side. Though just before starting the fight, Edward dispelled all the clones he had active outside his mindscape.
The battle between the two was extreme. The battle came to an end when the fighters were tired and decided to end it with a classic one final shot; using their remaining energies, both men unleashed their final attacks. The scene was almost identical to Ichigo and Byakuya's final battle, with Edward using the Black Excalibur while his light side somehow got a hold of the original light Excalibur as well as a light version of Exbeta; ending with Edward winning. The light side acknowledges his defeat and grants Edward his share of power but warn him that one day they will fight again before uniting with his respective opposite. This causes the mindscape to crumble and come crashing down, leaving Edward where they currently were.
Flashback Summary End
===================RON==========================
Edward looks around and sees that the entire landscape where the dome had been was scorched.
"Finally I am out. And it only took twenty five years, twenty under Zel's teachings." Edward said. He stands up from his kneeling position and stretches a bit, including flapping his wings a bit. He checks himself out and sees the status of his clothes, or rather, the lack of. He is holding himself up using Excalibur as a walking stick.
"Good thing I learned how to do this." Edward said as his wings suddenly wrapped themselves around him.
A moment later Edward's wings disappear, leaving a black colored clothed Edward while the former gauntlet now had the appearance of the original watch and Excalibur was now in black sheath on Edward's back and Exbeta was in gun holster inside Edward's black jacket.
(Edward is wearing the same outfit that Adam Jensen from Deus Ex: Human Revolution uses; except without the glasses.)
"Okay then, let's see if my order is ready. I gave them over twenty years to do the job, including the materials and on how to build the most important elements of it. But first.." Edward said as lifted his right arm and on his right hand darkness gathers around it and after it disappears, Edward is holding a hand size case in his hand. Edward then with his left hand points at the nearby ground and using a small shadow blast, blows away a little of the ground, leaving a hole the size of his hand. Edward then telepathically moves the case into the hole and after it's put there, he throws a little bit of lava into it to cover it up.
"I hope Shepard enjoys my little gift in the future. Now where was I... a yes." Edward said as he made his cell phone come out of his hand and a screen appeared above it.
Specify next location with parameters
Edward quickly though of the location.
Next location:
Universe= #8961250
In front of Edward a dark rupture appears. He examines it for a bit and says "Here I go."
Edward jumped into the rupture and the rupture closes behind him.
Location- Unknown universe #8961250
A black rupture appears on what looks like the lobby of a high tech office building and out of it comes out Edward. The rupture closed behind him. There's nobody there in the lobby except for the person behind the desk. Edward approaches the desk and the person behind the desk turned out to be a silver robot that looked female.
"Welcome to StarPowers. How may I help you?" The female silver robot behind the desk asked.
"Yes, my name is Edward Terrance and I had come to pick up an order I made twenty years ago." Edward said.
"Please put your hand and right eye on the scanners to confirm identity." The robot said as in front of Edward an eye scanner connected with a palm scanner and a blue screen in between them comes out of the desk.
Edward put his hand on the palm scanner and his right eye in the eye scanner. The scanners activated for a few moments it scanned his hand and eye until a ping is heard along with the screen lighting up green.
"Identity confirmed. Welcome back Mr. Terrance. I am happy to announce that your order was completed a week ago and it's completely operational." The robot said.
"That's good to hear. How much do I still need to pay, if I remember correctly I only paid the initial deposit?" Edward asked, and by initial deposit it meant nearly three whole mountains of Smaug's treasure.
"Actually sir while this order did cost a lot more than usual, the fact that you provided all the materials and allowed us permanent access to some of the technology you wanted us to put in your order, the company decided that you don't need to pay any further since thanks to the tech you given us, our services have improved a lot. So the order is paid in full."
"Really? Well thanks for that. Now where can I pick it up?" Edward said.
"Just follow the corridor on your left and take the transporter to dock 49. The transporter is biologically locked so that only the owner can access it."
"Thanks and have a nice day." Edward said as he then followed her directions. Edward did as instructed and a few minutes later he was in a viewing room with the large window looking at something outside.
(Think the hanger where the SR-2 Normandy was stationed when Joker and Shepard look at it for the first time, but larger and in open space.)
The object Edward was looking from the window was a painted in black L-class Deep Space Explorer or commonly known by all cartoon fans as the Absolution Mk. 1 from Toonami. The color was not the only thing different, but the ship itself was larger, bigger than the original version. Also, instead of having two hangers, the ship had four hangers, two on the back of the ship and two on the front and each was big enough to dock two Mercury Class Battlestars and still have space. Also on both sides of the ship in large and proud letters, the ship's name could be read, Oblivion.
"My new home." Edward said eyeing the ship that he had drawn up while inside the mindscape. Edward then went to the transporter in the room and then disappeared in a ray of light.
Edward reappeared in the bridge of the ship, which looked like The Illusive Man's Office, but twice as big and the view was to the front of the ship. As Edward was walking to the middle of the room, out of the floor blue particles appear and form a chair like the one Tom from Toonami uses.
Edward took off Excalibur from his back and then out of the floor a sword holder materialized and Edward put the sword in it and then he sat in the seat as the ship began to power up around him and several blue colored ME style holograms appear before him.
"How is the ship doing Oblivion?" Edward asked as he looked at the ship reports in front of him.
"The ship's status is all green and ready to launch. Oh, and welcome aboard Edward." A male computerized voice said.
"Anything out of the ordinary Oblivion?" Edward asked the ship's AI. Edward had created an A.I. while inside his mindscape and as a favor Zel delivered Oblivion to StarPowers for them to install on the ship. Oblivion was created based on Edward's own brain patterns using the same procedure the UNSC uses for their smart A.I.s, though Edward made sure that Oblivion would not suffer from Rampancy.
"No. Would you like to input a destination?" Oblivion asked.
"No, just take us out of the station's airspace and do a random jump. Let's do a leap of faith." Edward said.
"Very well sir. Random Jump command initiated." Oblivion said.
"Oblivion, Launch!" Edward ordered as the ship begins to move.
The Oblivion begins moving out of the space dock it was in very quickly and a few minutes later after the ship cleared the space station's airspace, a black rupture appears in front of the ship and a moment later the ship enters it, closing behind.
Its destination… well, that is another story.

Just remember that from here on out Neon could interact with any series, so I have a whole lot of room for writing. The parts of the ship and Neon's powers that are still classified or missing is so that depending on the story I decide to write, I can add things to his arsenal.
If you have any questions or something to say, just PM or review. And if you did not enjoy something, I might re edit later.
Thank you. Also I would like to say that I might post an alternate version of this chapter later on, it all depends on what I found in my late grandfather's old written stories.
Also...
HAPPY NEW YEAR'S EVE!
Post Credit Scene:
Location- The Between
In the TB, we see Carl sitting on his black chair looking at a holographic screen showing the Oblivion leaving the space station it was resting on and then entering the black rupture.
"Well then, it seems that you finally finished your training kid. Now, I know this would be cheating a bit but let's see how many futures you might be involved in." Carl said as the screen in front of him changed to several screens, each showing something different.
Screen 1:
Edward is seen smirking while holding down on the floor two people. One is a pink haired person that has his hands on fire, while the second one is a black haired person that has ice on his hands, but for some disturbing reason, he was only wearing boxers. The place where these three are looks like a bar and the white haired woman tending to the bar was just laughing.
Screen 2:
Edward, while holding Excalibur, is seen standing right next to a red haired person, a black haired, and a white haired one as well. Both the red haired and white haired ones had the same white and black blades on their hands, while the black haired one had a lance. To their backs were five girls, two violet haired ones, a blond one, a white haired one, and a black haired one. The four men were facing a blond person with red eyes that was wearing a golden armor. He had several weapons floating around him, which look ready to attack the group of men.
Screen 3:
Edward is seen kneeling on the floor healing an orange haired girl wearing a school uniform while next to her is a black haired boy that was holding her hand, but one odd thing about him was that one of his eyes had what looked like the sign of a bird.
Screen 4:
Edward is seen standing next to a black haired woman with glasses in a black dress and a blond haired woman in a red dress. Both women are wielding hand guns on both hands. Also, clinging to the black haired woman's right leg is a small little girl that looked to be her daughter. Surrounding the group were what appeared to be angelic beings.
Screen 5:
Edward is seen sleeping on a couch surrounded by five sleeping girls; two blond ones, a white haired one, a violet haired one, and a brown haired one. One odd thing about the scene was the large golden sword alongside Excalibur on wall and the sleeping black Cerberus in the same room as well.
Screen 6:
Edward is seen fighting alongside a black haired person with futuristic armor, an alien that looked like a bird with a sniper rifle and a blue skinned alien woman, whose body was glowing; against a horde of what looked like blue cybernetic zombies.
Screen 7:
Edward is wearing his normal clothes except that he had a black headband on his head that had the design of a spiraling leaf in it. In front of him were two teens. One was a blond kid that had whisker marks on his cheeks wearing a black and orange outfit and a girl with pink hair. The two of them had the same headband.
Screen 8:
Edward is seen fighting with a group of different armored people against what looked like green zombies in a giant control center. All the other people had different armors but the one that stood out the most was a green colored one that had the number 117 on its chest.
Screen 9:
Edward is seen standing in front of a classroom teaching to a group of kids wearing robes. One of the students, which Edward was keeping an eye out was a black haired one with green eyes that had a scar on his forehead that looked like a lightning bolt.
Screen 10:
Edward is seen in a library spending time with a group of people; a blond haired girl and a dark haired girl that seemed to be at each others throats, a red haired girl talking to a black haired guy very fast, and a british man who was wiping his glasses.
Screen 11:
Edward is seen sleeping in a couch in a clubhouse while a red haired girl and a black haired girl were talking with each other; a blond girl who looked like a nun trying to read the bible but looked like she was getting hurt doing it, and a blond guy and a blue haired girl sparring with swords.
Screen 12:
Edward, who is wearing a black school uniform, is seen holding a blond girl, whose uniform looked torn apart, bridal style while surrounding him was a field of darkness that seemed to be holding down a girl and three guys on the floor. Edward's aura is showing both tenderness and care to the blond girl in his arms while showing hatred and death to the people on the floor.
Final Screen:
This screen shows a massive throne room where everyone that was shown in the previous screens plus more people are there facing Edward who was sitting in a throne with two girls sitting on his lap. The scene was one of celebration and happiness.
"Well my boy, it seems your destiny or fate is a lot larger than what you might think. Let's see how many of these you can make a reality." Carl said as he looked kept on looking at the different and possibly futures for Edward or as he will later on be know, Neon.
Try to guess what each series was. The one who gets the most correct will help me decide which possible story to write first. If enough people try to guess, I will post a small note saying which series is each screen.
