"Do you wish to remain innocent, holding fast to the teachings you follow? Or will you seize victory, your hands stained with the blood of old friends? The most unbearable pain is now a fond memory, a desperate dream. In this world, there is no eternity. Now is the time to awaken."
When the Universal Villains and Alear's group arrived to where the Somniel would be. Alear and the others were shocked to find it on the ocean surface in ruins.
"So this is what happens to the Somniel in this reality…" Aether observed.
"What a mess…" Lumine added.
"Mm." Boss nodded. "This really is a good place for a base for the Divine Dragon. A shame it had to look like this."
"Eh. I think it can still be used if the place is cleaned up a bit." Risky shrugged.
"That comes later, however. For now…Alear, if you would?" Techno asked.
Alear approached to where the Bracelet of the Three Houses was as she used her power to break the ward on it.
"The final bracelet…" Pandora observed while Prometheus looked around as caution.
"I'm sure as hell things are gonna get messy soon." Prometheus said.
Simon looked around as well before quickly looking up as he saw a set of spirit constructed weapons raining down as he quickly shot at them.
"Way to call it, Prometheus." Risky Boots sarcastically said.
"I know." Prometheus replied.
"That ability…" Simon recognized.
"Well well…if it isn't my traitorous brother." a voice called out as they looked to the building to see Nil and Tormal standing there. "You seem well…for a piece of scum."
"Tormal?!" Simon asked. "You look…"
"Like I was attacked relentlessly by the lost beasts of the Lost Universe, cause, guess what, I was!" Tormal said in anger.
"How did you escape? We saw you sucked into a portal to there." Simon said.
"Believe it or not, I do still have allies on this side. Isn't that right, Nil?" Tormal said.
"Nil…why…he was the one who ruined everything. The destroyer knight that killed trillions!" Nel said.
"It was the only way to get what I truly want." Nil said. "Now…all seven bracelets are within my grasp!"
"So the truth comes out. You two were just using us to run your errands so you wouldn't have to." Flux said.
"That's right. I had hoped for the entire Hero Alliance to come with the Divine Dragon so both Heroes and Villains would perish." Tormal said.
"You're still on that? Dude, you lost. Just let it go and leave our reality out of it." Dan said.
"Wait…did he say…both?" Twice said.
"Yes. I've realized, so long as both heroes and villains exist at one time, the cycle will never be broken. I need to eliminate both factions." Tormal said.
"This is your endgame? I don't think you've realized this, but there's only two of you guys." Kokoro said.
"Oh? Care to count again?" Tormal said, snapping his fingers as a number of robed Corrupted emerged to his side, along with a few of the defeated Corrupted save for X and Zero.
"Okay… I take that back." Kokoro said.
"You really should've seen this coming." Pandora said in an unimpressed tone.
Simon gasped as he saw a familiar pendant around one of the figure's necks. "You…used our team?"
"Of course I did. Least this way, we can be together once again, as we stamp out every remaining light trying to ignite life in this miserable reality." Tormal said.
"Nil…you…you don't have to side with him." Nel said.
"Oh but I do. It is what our father wanted before his demise." Nil said.
"Father? Does that mean you're my…?" Veyle asked.
"Yes. We're both Sombron's children. The only survivors after the rest of the Fell Dragons were wiped out." Nel said.
"So Veyle probably isn't…oh my." Kokoro said.
"But Nil, you are my twin! We need to…" Nel said.
"Oh…there is something I should mention. I'm not Nil." Nil said. "The Nil you knew…died in the final battle."
"So you're a Nil from another another reality? My head hurts…" Spinel said as she clutched her head.
"No. He means that what we're seeing now is the true Nil. Or what his real name is." Kokoro said.
"Yes. Truth be told. Father asked me to take his place after he died. I was close enough to him that I could pass myself off as him. Now…I finally stand here, the pinnacle of his plans coming to fruition." Nil said.
"The pinnacle, you say? Funny…that's usually when most other villains, us included, fail." Techno spoke.
"Yeah. You and Tormal the loser haven't won a thing…and won't." Flux said.
"Please. I know your history. You have a surprising number of losses against the heroes that continued all the way to your end." Nil said.
"Well…we're going to be changing the books then!" Flux said as the Universal Villains ship flew over the Somniel. "All right, is it prepped?"
The bottom of the ship opened to show a large bomb with Flux's face at the end with the Loyal Three prepping it before giving a thumbs up.
"You do realize we're going to get caught up in the blast, right?" Boss asked Flux.
"True…if there were to be an actual blast." Flux said as the bomb fell right from the ship as it made contact with the ground. But instead of an explosion of flames, it dispersed a large mist that spread across the battlefield as the biological corrupted wavered and started collapsing one by one.
"What? What's going on?" Tormal said in surprise.
"Is this poison? No…that couldn't be. The Corrupted are already dead." Nil said.
"Ugh…forget it. Looks like it's all on us for right now." Tormal said. "So…let's have fun!" he said as he sent some weapons flying right at Veyle. But before they could pierce her, she was shielded by Mauvier who took the hit. "Damn."
"Mauvier!" Veyle cried out.
"My only regret… Was that I could not protect the Lady Veyle of this reality. But you… You still have such a chance. Please…don't…mourn for me." Mauvier said before he fell over dead.
"Grrr. Useless knight." Tormal said as he saw Sanji approach. "I was wondering where you went. Go on! Go and take care of that brat right this…" he said before being dealt a kick right to the face.
"Huh? Sanji? How is he…" Kokoro started.
"Hehehehe….has it really not come to your attention, you wannabe villain?" Flux asked Tormal.
"Wannabe? How dare you! Wait… That blast… Don't tell me that it…" Tormal started.
"There is a problem with just killing off the Corrupted. They're already dead so they'll just keep coming back again and again. So, next best thing was to give them something they previously lost…life." Flux said.
"The Revival Formula!" Techno realized.
"Well well…" Boss smirked. "Looks like I was wrong about you after all, Amadeus. This was a very clever move."
"So there really is a brain in there. You've been holding out on us." Kokoro said.
"Bravo." Tormal clapped sarcastically. "You managed to revive people that died once, and can die again."
"Die again? I think you're forgetting who a lot of these people even are." Flux said as the former corrupted turned their sights on their former master. "And they don't seem to have forgotten who their original killer was."
"Yeah… This looks like a full-on rebellion to me." Kokoro said.
"Now why does that sound familiar?" Aether smirked.
"I've already killed them once. I can do it again!" Tormal said firing a blast at a couple of them only for them to easily dodge. "What?"
"Like I said, you've forgotten who these people are. You may have caught them off guard that first time, but now that they know who their real enemy is…well…let's just say your days are numbered." Flux said.
"That's right. And some of them… Well, let's just say 'mercy' isn't in their vocabulary." Kokoro said.
"In other words… your fate is sealed." Boss added.
"No…this…this can't…" Tormal said as he was being surrounded.
"Spade." one of them spoke as he saw it was Ace.
"Brother! Please! Help me!" Tormal said.
"...No."
"What? But…but you must. True, I ended their lives but it was all to avenge you, our team! All of it!" Tormal said.
"...I hate you." Ace said simply.
"Fine…if that's how you want it…" Tormal said, raising his weapon. "I'll kill you first and bring you back into the fold!"
"You deal with them, Tormal. I'll handle these fools." Nil offered as he called upon the power of the seven emblems as he transformed into a dark dragon.
"Oh right…he's a Fell Dragon." Flux said.
"You are all detestable in the eyes of Lord Sombron. And you will perish here!" Fell Nil said.
"Not on our watch." Lumine answered as the team prepared themselves.
"We defeated a wind dragon and an earth dragon before, so there's no doubt we can defeat a Fell Dragon!" Aether said. "Alear, Veyle, Nel, Winds, get ready!"
(Cue- Mirrored Engage- Fire Emblem Engage)
"We won't let you follow in Sombron's footsteps!" Alear said. "We'll stop you from becoming his heir, whatever it takes!"
"Yes… You may have killed one of us, but we are still a mighty tempest!" Zelestia said.
"I won't back down. Mauvier would tell me to be brave as the new second-in-command." Gregory said.
"When my liege walks down the wrong path, it's my duty to stop them. I'll do what I must." Madeline said.
"I will do whatever it takes to help save you from your own pain. I won't let Mauvier's sacrifice be in vain!" Veyle said.
"I cannot bear to lose any of you. Not one more person. Let this be our final battle. Brother…" Nel declared.
"If busting a cap in your ass is what it'll take to set your head straight, then so be it. Let's rock, baby!" Simon said.
"To arms, then!" Techno declared. "Attack!"
"To slay a dragon? Yeah. That's always a major accomplishment." Boba said.
"I have seen so many things here that I wish could be unseen. But I will do everything I can to end this nightmare. For Alear, Veyle, Nel, the remaining Winds, for Mauvier's wish… And for you!" Kokoro said.
"You will all die here!" Fell Nil called out, swinging his tail as Alear, Veyle, Nel, Kokoro, Aether and Lumine collided with it.
"Attack the Heroes and Villains, my Corrupted Alliance Army!" Tormal commanded of the Corrupted Royals only to see them lying dead. "Ah!"
"Did you forget? They were exposed too, idiot." Ace said, revealing black line tattoos across his body and golden yellow eyes.
"Just a reminder… What year is this?" David asked, looking like a panther Beastman in this reality.
"(3023.)" Fezandipiti replied.
"Thank you. 1000 years as a Corrupted, Tormal. Do you have any idea how agonizing it was to be a tethered slave to your delusions all this time?!" David asked. "You know what… Don't answer that, because you are about to feel…every…single…moment of it."
"You didn't even bother asking what happened and just attacked." Jexi said, sporting long hair going to the right with a few tattoos on his arms.
"We weren't the ones who even killed Ace and his team. But you didn't care. You overreacted like you and your brothers always do. Always imagining the worst case scenario." Hope said, his blue hair longer as his outfit had some tears.
"And now, because of everything you've done, you'll be living in that worst case scenario." Mark finished, his hair black and eyes red, with no cross necklace in sight.
"I killed you all once. I will do so again." Tormal said as he lunged at the five only to be dodged.
"Ultimate Color…Knee Strike!" Jexi said, striking against Tormal's stomach, making him cough up blood. "You only killed us cause of what happened that moment. You can't win against everyone here."
"We were the best of friends, and we went on so many adventures together. But you threw that all away because you thought we were going to stab you in the back!" Hope said as he followed up with a rapid flurry of electrically infused punches to Tormal's face. "Think, Spade! On what multiverse would any of us ever turn on each other?!"
"None of you can see beyond your own visions!" Tormal said, fighting against the five. "In every alliance, there is always tension! Eventually, that tension leads to conflict! In this, and all realites, there is always the possibility of betrayal!"
"We'd never betray each other, you know that!" Hope replied.
"Well… Maybe you would, Spade. You and your brothers only cared about yourselves, using whatever prejudices you may have as an excuse for standing above all others." David said. "But now that I think about it… It was all due to your enablance that this all happened. You used your status as a Nephilim prince as an excuse to stand above everyone else. And it's a very flimsy one at that!" he said as he rapidly slashed at Tormal with his claws. "Don't you see, Spade?! Your paranoia has doomed everyone, including the Nephilim race and that oh so sweet Devaloka you cherished! And let me ask you… Was it all worth it in the end? Was it really?"
"It… it has to be! Ace, brother, please! You have to understand that this was all worth it!" Tormal said.
"Using your own brother to satisfy your ego now? There is simply no end to your depravities, is there?! You disappoint me!" David said.
"You can't use me to justify your actions, Spade. You also killed me, remember?" Ace asked. "You probably thought destroying this multiverse could make me and Simon happy. But it didn't! You destroyed our kingdom! You killed thousands of worlds, our friends! And after all these years trapped as a corrupted, I finally see now that our brotherhood was a lie." Ace said.
This shocked Tormal to his very core.
"Your own brother, denouncing you." Hope said. "That's what happens when you fall prey to your own delusions."
"We are not brothers any more Spade. If you always had intentions to kill our friends from the very start…then I see now that they were my family far more than you. My only regret is not embracing that fact sooner." Ace said.
"A shame you'll never do so!" Tormal said. "This reality is already dead! Once Rafal does his work, we shall move on and conquer the other one ourselves!"
"We're not letting another reality fall to your madness, Spade. If our world's gonna end and we're all gonna die again today…you're coming with us!" Hope said.
"Freikugel!" Ace called, charging magic power in front of his face before firing deadly beams from his eyes.
"Meteor Beam!" Hope said, blasting a modified version of the Rock-type move fit for his spectrum style at Tormal.
"You and Sombron have manipulated Rafal enough." Ace said. "The Hero Alliance from the other reality will be his glimmer of hope."
"As for us… Yes, our reality is dead… But with all of us back, we can rebuild it again from the ground up. Rebuild society into the way it should've been. But the only obstacle standing in the way of that…is you." David said.
"Now do us a favor and drop dead!" Ace said, grabbing Tormal by his neck.
"No… NO! Save me! Rafal! Singularity! Zenos!"
"It's too late to call out to the ones you already betrayed." Hope said.
"P-please no! I-I don't want to die like this!" Tormal begged.
"Tell me… How many people have YOU heard say those exact words?" David asked in a cold tone and a savage growl..
"Do you even remember the names and faces of those you killed?" Jexi asked.
"Did you even try?" Mark added with chillingly calm fury.
"Do you know how it felt when they died?" Ace asked, his eyes glowing as he put his other hand to Tormal's chest before plunging it into him. "It felt like that." he said before dropping Tormal's body to the ground.
Meanwhile, the heroes and villains from the other multiverses were engaged with Fell Rafal's dragon form.
"I suppose this must be how it felt for you, watching me transform." Nel said.
"Spare me your pity and presumptions. You were born with everything. We are not the same." Fell Rafal scowled. "You will never understand me. Not even if you have thousands of years to contemplate."
"Our time together as twins was a far shorter interval than that. And yet it was more than enough time for me to learn how much I care about you." Nel mused. "Do not do this, Nil. Do not return things to the way they were with Sombron. Please. I cannot bear the thought of losing you." she pleaded.
Rafal said nothing, only preparing to burn Nel with Fell Dragon flames. However, Techno got in the way and put up a barrier shield, blocking the flames from reaching either of them.
"Don't leave yourself so open, Nel. Our deal still stands, despite it all." Techno said.
"You…" Fell Rafal seethed. "It's all your fault things are falling apart. If it wasn't for you villains…! Gah, why do you even travel with those fools? Why do you humor his stupidity?!"
"Humor his stupidity, you say?" Techno asked. "I suppose that's true…to an extent. But you overlook a few critical details: it was he who came up with this plan to overcome you. It was he who managed to get the bracelets of our reality from the heroes. And it was he who correctly hypothesized that the Loyal Three would join us. Amadeus Flux may act foolish at times, but when he succedes, it is nothing short of spectacular. That is why I travel with him; to ensure that he becomes the best version - the best villain - he can possibly be. I say in confidence, that I am proud to be his descendant."
"Wow…I'm touched." Flux said. "Makes me glad I got this for you." he said holding a t shirt with his and Techno's picture with the words "Proud to be his Descendant" on it.
Techno merely chuckled. "You never change, ancestor, you never change." he said before he felt a change. "Hmm? What is…ah, of course…pride is the key. Everyone, I can end this! Just buy me some time!"
"Don't worry. We'll hold him for as long as we can!" Kokoro said.
"You heard her, do what you need to do until it's ready!" Boss ordered his faction and the twin travelers.
"Well I'm game. Let's set up for the climax." Simon said.
"You'll all meet your ends here!" Fell Rafal said before he was hit with an uppercut and slash by Luffy and Dan.
"Not if we have anything to say about it!" Aether countered as he and Lumine fired Geo and Anemo arrows at the Fell Dragon's face.
Cure Darkmoon rotated her PreBrace several times and launched a lunar crescent-shaped boomerang at Rafal. As it flew back to Darkmoon, she redirected it to Prometheus, using his scythe imbued with fire and smacked the lunar boomerang to the fell dragon again. The boomerang was then redirected to Pandora, using her staff coated in ice and lightning to smack the boomerang onto the fell dragon again, causing the boomerang to explode with elemental energy.. "Alear, Veyle, Nel, finish it." Pandora ordered.
"Ahhhh!" Alear, Veyle and Nel cried out as they slashed through Rafal, forcing him to revert as he was in shock as he collapsed to the ground.
"I am defeated? This cannot be. Father… Father!" Fell Rafal cried.
As he was defeated the Bracelets glowed before they soon disappeared.
"The bracelets… Where did they go?" Alear asked.
"They disperse when their duty is done." Nel said.
"Why… Why?! Even with the power of the bracelets, why am I no match for you?!" Rafal asked.
"Perhaps you see it now. The path Sombron laid out for you was never the right one." Nel said.
"If I cannot carry out Father's wishes…then my existence serves no purpose. All my life I have sought to be valued…only to discover that I am truly worthless. I will never be like you." Rafal said.
"You are not worthless. You are my irreplaceable twin brother. We are two halves of a whole." Nel said.
"Ridiculous. I already told you I am not Nil." Rafal said. "I am nothing but an imposter. You should not hesitate to kill me. I brought this world to the brink of ruin. If you let me live, I will do it again. Let that be your reason, if nothing else."
"I know." Nel said. "I have always known that you were not Nil."
"What?" Nil replied, shocked.
"Wait, you knew this guy was lying from the start?" DaDan asked. "Then why didn't you say anything?!"
"I simply chose not to confront him about it. He took his place for his sake and for mine. That was an act of kindness. We may not have been born as twins, but I have always thought of him as my other half." Nel said.
"Then…you are a fool!" Nil said as he looked sad.
"Say what you will. I speak the truth. You will recall how we visited the burial site at Lythos Castle to say our farewells. You may not have seen that I left a pressed flower there. It was Nil's. I was not saying goodbye only to the Divine Dragon that day." Nel said.
"The real Nil…you were saying goodbye to them too…" Toga realized.
"I carried that flower for a long time. I suppose some part of me was unable to move on. Despite that, you became very dear to me. You saved me from loneliness and despair. You allowed me to keep fighting. I trusted you. Cherished you. I was happy to be a sister to you." Nel spoke.
"...I confess, I have longed to hear you say those things." Rafal admitted with a sad smile. "They make fine parting words."
"No…they…do…NOT." Techno spoke as his body began to glow. "The preparations…are complete. Upgrade is progress."
"Uh…what's going on with Techie?" Spinel asked.
"Wait…pride…" DaDan realized, his eyes growing wide. "His powers…they're fueled by pride! When he said he was proud to be Flux's descendant, it must have-!"
From within the glow, a change overcame Techno. His lab coat began to change from pure white to a shining, silverish color, multiple mechanical arms emerging from small openings. From his back, similarly colored wingspans unfolded, being filled in by golden hard-light constructs. His glasses shimmered and vanished, being replaced by a futuristic-looking visor, with the words '2.0 ONLINE' flashed across them. His arms and legs were covered in shining metal, which reflected what little light came from the skies as he stood up.
"Boss, a lesson about gods in the Color-Verse." Techno spoke to the mysterious leader in a mechanical, almost calming voice. "Those who claim to have always been gods…nothing but beings with delusions of grandeur. Their power is not a birthright. True gods…earn their divinity."
DESIGNATION REQUIRED…CONFIRMED.
DR. TECHNO: PLATINUM GOD MODE
"Well now, this is a surprise." Boss remarked.
"Incredible. He's achieved God Mode." Flux said. "Yes! Well done!"
"Thank you, my ancestor." Techno nodded, before he turned to Nil. "That is Nel's Dragonstone you have, correct?"
"Y-Yes, the real Nil gave it to-" Rafal started before one of Techno's mechanical arms grabbed hold on it and brought it into his own hands. "Wait, what are you-?"
"Just as I suspected…outside programming." Techno remarked, looking at the dragonstone, his statement surprising both Fell Dragons. "I had assumed it was Tormal, but…this is someone else. No matter. Easily fixed. REPROGRAM."
CONFIRMED. SCANNING ENERGY PATTERNS.
ISOLATING FOREIGN PATTERNS.
DELETING…CONFIRMED.
FOREIGN ENERGIES NEUTRALIZED.
"An unknown…Father. Did…did he plan for this?!" Rafal said in surprise.
"It seems so. Perhaps he intended for you to destroy Nel and fulfill some backup plan." Techno proposed, handing the dragonstone back to Rafal. "Perhaps to act as backup for the other version of him in our Elyos? One Fell Dragon would be difficult, but two? Almost a guaranteed success."
"I almost…ended it all for him." Rafal said. "Even…my sister."
"So even in death, Fell Dragon Somborn has a backup plan just in case." Boss said. "But it looks like you're able to put that plan to a halt, Techno."
"More than that, I've turned it on its head." Techno said. "If Rafal and Nel are so inclined, they could very well confront the other Sombron and aid in his downfall…that is, if they're willing to enter another war."
"Right now, we are trying to regain the Emblem Rings that we've lost and we still have to find the Ring of the Azure Twins, but yeah that is essentially the main goal." Simon said. "Regardless, would you all be willing to fight by our side and put an end to him for good?" he asked Nel, Rafal, and the remaining Four Winds.
"Simon…" Nel said.
"Yes…his evil must end." Rafal said.
"Of course, we will also lend our aid." Zelestia said.
It didn't take long for Rafal to create a rift to lead the heroes back into their original dimension.
"Well…are we following after them?" Boba asked.
"Not just yet. So, Techno, think your abilities can modify say…an entire sunken base?" Flux asked. "I mean, I doubt the Divine Dragon of this world would mind since they're long dead."
"Hmm…why don't we find out?" Techno asked as he placed his hands on the ground. "INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION."
From under his hands, multiple energy lines spread out and surrounded the fallen Sominel.
OUTLINING LAYOUT.
SCANNING STRUCTURE.
OVERLOOKING POTENTIAL IMPROVEMENTS.
UPGRADE IN PROGRESS…
The fallen home began to rumble before it slowly rose from the water, changing from stone to steel until it completely changed.
UPGRADE COMPLETE.
BEHOLD: FLUXTOPIA STRONGHOLD 001 - BABYLON
"Yowie-Wowie!" Spinel said in awe.
"I've transformed the Somniel of this dimension into a base of operations for us to use in the Color-Verse." Techno said.
"Wait, so… we're not using it here?" Twice asked.
"Why would we? This universe is dead. Least until the heroes here revive it." Flux said. "Either way, it has no purpose."
"Odd. Weren't you going on a tirade about conquering it when we got here? What changed your mind?" Arsen asked.
"Eh, now that the heroes here have been revived, it's going to get very difficult. So I'll leave things to the Flux of this universe…if they decide to revive him." Flux said.
"They probably won't." a number of the villains thought.
"But at least we got five new recruits to…" Flux said, before seeing Boss and his party gone. "They snuck after those others when the rift opened, didn't they?"
"It would appear so." Ian said.
"Let them go. We have what we came for." Jasper said. "We still have all the data we collected from the Emblem Bracelets, and we have established for ourselves another base of operations."
"And that is all we need." Techno said as he returned to normal.
"Yes. So…let's begin our own operations." Flux smiled.
Elsewhere…
After entering through the rift Rafal summoned, the team, including Boss and his faction, and the living residence of the Fell-Verse, arrived back aboard the Somniel of the Color-Verse, which is still nighttime for some reason. It's as if time passed for at least an hour or two instead of a whole night.
"So this is the real Elyos…" Boss mused.
"At least we won't have to worry about any Corrupted in this place." Prometheus said.
"That's weird…" Aether said, looking at the night sky. "It's still nighttime? I thought we'd come back in the morning."
"Must be a time displacement between multiverses." Darkmoon assumed.
"By the way…" Lumine faced Boss and his faction. "Why did you follow us here?"
"Several reasons." Boss answered. "First is that special train of the Rebellion that can take us back to our multiverse. I'm not letting the Universal Villains step foot there."
"Okay, that makes sense." Lumine noted.
"The second reason… I wish to observe how the Hero Alliance work and meet the leaders, especially the one known as Jexi the Hunter that Amadeus and Techno Flux have been talking about during my time with those villains."
"Don't be surprised if they're not what you are expecting." Kokoro said.
"And the third reason…" Boss turned to Veyle. "Remember when you told me about your evil self still lurking in your mind?"
"Yes?" Veyle answered.
"I should have the power to purge that dark self out of your body. However, it's not my job to defeat your evil self. That would be yours, Fell Dragon."
"You want Veyle to defeat her evil self personally?" Alear guessed.
"Precisely." Boss nodded. "Call it a test of her growth as a Fell Dragon of free will. Once I purged her evil self out, she'll be sent back to the Four Hounds, while the true Veyle remains."
"What do you think, Veyle?" Aether asked.
Veyle took a moment to look at the team's faces before facing Boss. "Alright, let's do it." She nodded.
Boss then turned to Aether. "Traveler, prepare a wormhole leading to Solm Desert."
"Okay." Aether compiled, taking out his Zikan Phone Blaster Mode and materialized a wormhole behind Veyle as the portal showed Solm Desert.
"Hold my hand and close your eyes, Veyle." Boss offered his left hand glowing in blue.
"Mm." Veyle nodded and followed his instructions.
Afterwards, he reeled back his open right palm glowing in red. And the moment he pushed his palm onto Veyle's chest, her evil self was purged out of her body and was sent flying into the portal before it vanished. "It is done." Boss said as his hands stopped glowing while Veyle lost consciousness.
"Veyle!" Alear gasped.
"Relax, she's only asleep." Boss assured, gently handing Veyle over to Alear. "She won't be having nightmares of her dark self anymore."
"Thank goodness." Lumine sighed with relief. "But what was that power of yours?"
"Ah, yes. These." Boss showed off his glowing red right hand and blue left hand. "My blue power allows me to pull any object into a single singularity, like forming several pieces of metal into one large cannonball. As for red, it's the opposite as it pushes away a target. As for what happens when I fuse two of those powers together? Well…" He chuckled before the glow on his hands faded. "I'll leave that to your imagination."
"So, Veyle is gonna be okay now, right?" Kokoro asked.
"Yeah, it looks like it. We'll have to deal with her evil self in physical form later on." Risky Boots said.
Simon looked down in thought about the dragonstone Veyle had. "If it's true, Sombron has slaughtered all his children save for one besides Veyle, her sibling."
"More than likely, yes." Kokoro said.
"It does raise questions, but that dragonstone is the only clue we have to go on." Simon said.
"I see." Boss noted. "In the meantime, my faction will assist on your mission for the time being. But I will only observe. Though I will step in if things were beyond control."
"Understood, father." Darkmoon replied.
"Get some rest, you have much to do tomorrow." Boss said.
"...And a lot to tell the others." Kokoro said, noting the new arrivals.
"Ah yes, the remaining Four Winds and the other two Fell Dragons." Boss noted.
"But after the things they've seen, a lot of them are willing to believe anything at this point, so maybe it won't be as hard to explain as I think." Kokoro said.
"Eh, if you say so." Prometheus shrugged. "Come on, sis. Time to sleep."
"Yes, brother." Pandora nodded as the two sibling reploids left for bed. Soon enough, the others followed suit, except for Boss who watched the night sky in silence.
"(The Color-Verse, huh…?)" Boss thought.
And so, that was how the story of the Fellverse ended. The Dark Templar, Tormal, had finally been defeated, killed by the ones he betrayed for no reason at all, other than being absorbed in his own delusions.
With nothing left for them in their own universe, Zelestia, Gregory and Madeline of the Four Winds, joined Alear and the heroes who came with her to accompany her on her quest to defeat Sombron in the Colorverse. Joining them as well was Nel, one of the few Fell dragons who was born with good in her heart and could transform into her full dragon form, and Rafal, who wishes to atone for the pain and suffering he caused in his reality. In addition, Boss and his faction also joined the heroes on their mission, but only to observe the Hero Alliance and the Color-Verse. The battle for the Emblems will soon reach a new stage as the war continues.
