SailorStar9: After getting Chapter 17 out, this is Chapter 18 of this fic. (Sighs) Guys and girls, is it too hard for you to leave a review, instead of just putting this fic up on your favorited list and story alerts?
Disclaimers: I own nothing, except for the plot bunny and my OC.
Chapter 18: Diablo Nemesis
"It has been revived at last." Rago bragged. "Behold, this is the Black Sun; it is the God of Destruction, Diablo Nemesis."
"Oh no." Dynamis gasped. "This means Nemesis has been completely revived. This cannot be allowed. We must seal Nemesis away at all costs."
"The new light will become a new pit of darkness." Pluto grinned. "The prophecy about the God of Destruction left by King Hades has been fulfilled. Now, at last, the true destruction will begin. You all should get ready to go into a very long sleep."
"I don't think so." Ginga snapped. "We won't listen to you. We'll protect our future. This is the mission of the Legendary Bladers chosen by the Star Fragment."
"You're as stubborn as ever I see." Doji chuckled
"Interesting." Rago was amused. "Go ahead and try if you want to."
"I'll do more than try." Ginga retorted and the two opponents launched their Beys.
"An attack like that won't affect Nemesis one little bit." Rago mocked as Cosmic Pegasus continuously attacked Nemesis with no avail.
"That's not good." Madoka whispered. "It's taken so many of Pegasus' attacks in a row."
"Now, it's my turn." Rago counterattacked, pushing Ginga back.
"That's not all." Pluto snarled. "Nemesis has achieved it's ultimate evolution by absorbing your power."
"Playtime is over." Rago declared and let Nemesis!Pegasus loose and effortlessly took out its light counterpart. "And there's more. Go now, Nemesis. Show the fools what happens to those who oppose us. Show them your power."
"We have to help Mr. Ginga." Yuki informed the others.
"That's a waste of time." Rago sneered as the others joined in the fight.
"Nemesis has achieved its ultimate evolution by absorbing the power of the Star Fragments and gained all of the Beys' abilities." Seina realized. "Now it's using that power against us."
"Your future was decided mere moments ago." Pluto mocked. "As soon as Zeus' Barrier collapsed."
"With the power we got from you, we will destroy everything on Earth." Rago declared. "Nemesis!" he sent out dark duplicates of the others' Bey Spirits.
"I can't believe I helped revive this evil monster." Chris winced.
"This is all thanks to you, my friend, Master Ryuga." Doji turned to Ryuga. "Thanks to the foolish man who fancied himself the 'Dragon Emperor' and undid Zeus' Barrier which was the one and only threat to the God of Destruction. Just look at what you have brought about. In the end, you are nothing but a hooligan; a cheap one that would not have accomplished anything without me and the guidance I gave you."
"This battle is not over yet." Ryuga snarled and launched his Bey.
"In that case, we'll have to force you to learn your lesson." Doji taunted and as if on cue, Rago sent out a dark version of L-Drago.
"Nemesis has now been completely revived as we planned." Pluto declared. "Your role in this is over. Rago."
"This is the end." Rago barked.
"Nova Star: Cosmic Synergy." Seina released the cosmos energy she gathered with the Astrolabe. "What is stolen can always to taken back." she announced, the concentrated cosmos energy turned into solidified energy figurines of the Bey Spirits and proceeded to claim back the stolen Star Fragment energy and return them to their respective Bey Spirits.
"Nemesis, fight it!" Rago ordered.
"It's useless, Rago." Seina fired back. "This ability originated from the source of stars; the Cosmic Cauldron. Even Nemesis has to bow before it's authority. Nova Star: Synergy Star Encampment." she locked the rampaging Nemesis in a prism of starlight.
"My Lady." Dynamis caught the weakened Seina.
"The barrier won't hold for too long." Seina warned.
"Everyone, we have to get out of here, fast." Ginga shouted.
In the tunnels...
"Hurry, everybody." Ginga took the charge in getting the group out, only to find a pile of rubble had blocked off their escape route.
"Everyone, quickly." Tsubasa broke down the rubble.
Just as everyone ran out, the once contained Nemesis broke free of the prism entrapment, the once held back energy shooting out from the pyramid and destroying said building and its surroundings.
In the WBBA Headquarters...
"North America, Central America and South America show no signs of Nemesis' energy." Hikaru reported.
"And there's no sign of it from Southeast Asia, too." Tsubasa added.
"Nor from the Middle East." Hikaru stated.
"Where in the world did the God of Destruction disappear to?" Ryūsei pondered.
In the resting lounge...
"Nemesis ran?" Ginga huffed. "Have you found anything out?" he noticed Yuki and Madoka returning.
"Nothing at all." Madoka shook her head.
"We're focusing on places that are connected to the Legendary Bladers and we're having our friends from around the world help with the search." Yuki explained. "But so far, we don't have any leads."
"Where are they?" King fumed. "How could they just disappear in thin air."
"They're obviously hiding somewhere waiting for the right time for the rampage of Nemesis to begin." Dynamis concluded. "It must be stopped because if Nemesis does become the God of Destruction, this world will never be saved from it. Lady Asteria has returned the power of the Star Fragment to us, that is true. With our very strong bonds and heated Bey Spirits, we can increase the Star Fragment's power once again to get ready for the battle. We must not... let what happened to Lady Asteria in her previous life happen again." so now, he's the only one left. He mused, the Legendary Bladers having spilt into their own group for further training.
In the Beylin Fist group's room...
"That Pluto guy." Bao fumed, slamming a fist on the wall. "Why did he have to go and leave us behind like that?"
"Because we're being used." Aguma replied. "From the beginning, all they wanted was the power of that this Kronos possessed. In the end, they just used us to take out power and then they threw us all away. I don't know anymore. What is true strength then? Beylin Fist needs me but what does it need me for?"
"Long ago, there are a Blader warrior who possessed the Saturn Bey." Dynamis related. "He agreed to support King Hades because his people were promised wealth and prosperity. His exceptional leadership and strategizing skills were a threat to the warriors of King Zeus who stood against Nemesis, God of Destruction. The Saturn Blader warrior believed in the promise that King Hades made and continued to fight valiantly for the future of his people. However, one person was able to break through his rock-solid battle formation; the Venus Blader warrior. He saw something unique; a new way of thinking, of battling. The Saturn Blader warrior saw the true meaning of Beyblade right then. He realized it's only in a truly free world that his people would have a future and his power became an essential part of sealing Nemesis away. As a Legendary Blader, you have been entrusted with the future of this world and you must decide the future of your people as well. You need only follow your heart to find the correct path." with that, he walked off.
