The flames continue spreading, burning through the city much quicker than the Painforest due to being a much more open space by comparison. Condensed Wadley stands rooted in place, too angry that his ice cream has been melted to be burned by the flames.
Shazamitas finally manages to land a proper hit on Forrest Man, sending Forrest Man stumbling backwards into the raging flames. Forrest Man attempts to retaliate, but Shazamitas has seen enough of Forrest Man's moves to know how to counter all of them, and soon enough, Shazamitas has the undeniable upper hand in the encounter.
"You may have become strengthened by your Stand, but you are still a mere child." Shazamitas says. Forrest Man continues to channel the energy from his Stand, but in the face of such hopelessness, it seems that he can't hold his empowered form for much longer.
"I've still got one trick up my sleeve." Forrest Man says, wiping some ash off his face. "Right now, a lot of the energy from my Stand is going into helping me keep this form. But at any moment, I could choose to let it all out at once. I would probably die, but that would be a small price to pay to destroy you for good."
"How typical. Go on then, be my guest. The last thing you'll see will be your last-ditch effort failing miserably."
Forrest Man narrows his eyes, but doesn't say anything. He begins to glow even brighter, as he focuses his energy into one concentrated blast. Shazamitas prepares himself to take the hit, creating a shield of flame around him and his Stand, but to his surprise, Forrest Man doesn't fire the energy at him, but rather shoots it straight up, creating a giant green pillar of light.
"What are you trying to accomplish, exactly? Never mind, it doesn't matter. As a reward for keeping me occupied for so long, I'll finish you off with my own ultimate move." Shazamitas takes a step towards Man Forrest, who is collapsed on the ground, panting. The flames from Raw, Unfiltered Calamity start to dim, as Shazamitas focuses his power around himself, charging up calamitous energy to let out in a massive explosion of fire. However, as Shazamitas charges the attack, he suddenly hears an odd noise, completely out of place amidst the roaring of flames and falling of trees. It sounds almost like the beeping of a car. As Shazamitas starts to turn around to find the source of the sound, he suddenly has Gas Gas Gas thrust into him and turned, causing his body to rumble in place as though his ignition key has been activated. Holding Gas Gas Gas is, of course, Wheel Woo, surrounded by Never Fail.
"Since he's not here with me to say it, I'll do it for him. I will never fail to defeat you and stop this fire, by any means necessary." Wheel Woo presses a button on Gas Gas Gas, and holds on to Shazamitas, refusing to let go as Shazamitas tries to shake him off. Shazamitas begins to rise off the ground, quickly picking up speed and accelerating upwards.
"You idiot, what are you trying to accomplish?! You have nothing to do with this!" Shazamitas yells, but Wheel Woo doesn't listen, and continues driving Shazamitas out of the Painforest and up into the atmosphere, the flames petering out slowly as Shazamitas gets further and further away. Never Fail also begins to flicker, reaching the limits of its effective range as Wheel Woo gets farther from Dr. Woo. Soon enough, Wheel Woo and Shazamitas are completely out of the atmosphere, and though Wheel Woo doesn't exactly last for very long in the void of space, the acceleration from Gas Gas Gas continues. Shazamitas tries to use the flames from his Stand to propel himself back towards the planet, but the energy is still building up for his ultimate attack, so he's only able to slightly reduce the acceleration. Shazamitas yells out what is sure to be some super angry final line, but since he's in outer space, nobody can hear what he says, as his energy bursts out around him, forming into a massive cosmic fireball, visible in the sky from the planet below as an entire sun made from calamitous flame.
Down on the streets of Costa Brava, Gamerman walks along to the edge of where the flames reached. Though a fair portion of the city was burned down towards the center, such as the library and the landfill, places like the Beaten Meat Deli and the WCL's headquarters were not within range of the inferno. Gamerman simply kicks a rock into the ashy wastes, looking up at the new sun in the sky with a contemplative look, before shrugging and looking back at his game review to-do list as he heads back to his gamer basement.
Far, far, far away from all of this, in the Upper Trifecta of a different Trifecta altogether, a meeting is being held. Present at this meeting are Eirith, The Rusted One, and three smaller creatures, which seem to be reminiscent of the Ones of this Trifecta in appearance, albeit with very major anatomical differences. Notably, one of the three Ones is not present in their chair at this meeting.
"He still hasn't come back yet, has he?" Eirith observes, looking at the empty chair. "Well, this is urgent, so I guess we'll just have to fill him in whenever he's here."
"Ay, am I not good enough for ye? He and I are the basically the same poysin! We even both got one of those Stand thingermadoobobs!" One of the smaller creatures says.
"Quiet, Jasper. Let's hear what they have to say." another of the creatures, specifically the one resembling the Rusted One, says.
"Yes, Oxid. Let's hear what we have to say." The Rusted One says dryly. "There appears to have been an enormous Canon Breach somewhere in the Elleve Trifecta, the likes of which has never been observed, anywhere, ever."
"And why's that our problem, hm? Why should we care?" Jasper reclines in his chair casually.
"Because, it has to do with the Tyrant." Eirith says, and the remaining creature glowers, clearly very upset with this news.
"So, what are we doing about it, exactly?" this last creature demands.
"Well, after some discussing in private, Rusted and I decided that we would be sending someone to investigate, and in specific, we chose you, Kira. Your abilities seem most suitable for the job."
"Yo, what?! You for real?! You sendin' the stupid horse?! Ain't Elleve the place where like, ERRYONE got a Stand? It's like, poifect for me!" Jasper whines.
"Well, you raise a good point, but unlike Kira, when YOU die, you STAY dead." Eirith says, which seems to shut Jasper up.
"Never been a fan of Stands. They're stupid and nonsensical. But I'll deal with them." Kira mutters.
"I can hear you, dumbass!"
"Yeah, I know. And I'll bet you can feel this, too." Kira walks over to Jasper, and proceeds to kick him out of his chair with his back legs, sending him flying like a football.
"We've already set up your means of transportation. I'm sure you understand what that means." Rusted says.
"Yeah. So I'll be off, then?" Kira asks, not waiting for a response before he simply vanishes from the scene, leaving behind a small plush replica of himself where he was standing.
"Well, there he goes. Meeting adjourned." says Eirith, as Jasper wiggles his legs about, being partially embedded in the wall.
