Chapter 602 The Truth
I don't own Bleach or any of the powers and gear used in this story.
Draco and the team went foward and Yui looks around.
"We're clear for now."She said.
Victor looks at Lust who was sitting next to a tree."So... Will you help us?"
She looks at him and said:"You told me that Pride betrayed us, looks like Father has other plans for us."
"So is that a yes?"Yui said.
"Yes, I will make sure they will pay."She said.
"Okay, we need to take down Wrath, that will make Father come out."Draco said.
Ankh goes foward and said:"Well... Let's get him."
They went foward getting ready to fight.
At the base
Wrath was inside of his office and Olivier came inside.
"Major, what is the report?"He said.
"They haven't been found yet."She said.
He stares at her and said:"I see."He walks around."You know that I am the one in control here."
"That is correct."She frowns.
"Then you should be following my orders without question!"He glares at her.
He points his sword at her."I know you've been working with them!"
She frowns but then someone punches him outside of the room making land on the courtyard.
He looks up and sees Scar."You!"
"Looks like your one of the homunculus."Scar said.
Wrath got up but then Draco and Ankh came down to face him.
"Looks like we got you."Draco said and he looks at Scar."Can we consider you a ally?"
"Against him, yes."Scar said.
Wrath charges at them with his sword and they dodged it with Draco summoning a construct to stop him.
Scar punches him back making the homunculus grunt.
Mustang was on the side and makes a explosion hitting Wrath back.
Ankh changes into his true form and he blasts Wrath making him roar in pain.
"You damn bird!"Wrath walks foward to hit Ankh.
Ankh sees him coming foward."Seems like he won't stand down so easily."
Draco summons a glyph to push him back before Wrath got blasted from behind by a energy blast.
Draco saw Fasha behind him with her hands out."Good work."
Then Astolfo and Chevalier came down and they stabbed Wrath in the back.
He grunts before Scar punches through his chest.
"It's over."Scar said.
Wrath grunts and his body was breaking."I'm the last that is loyal to father, I wonder why the rest of them do that."He looks at Ankh."You... What was your reason to fight us? Loyalty?"
"It was simply because it was the right thing to do."Ankh said.
"I see, you have your own agenda and no one controls you, I envy you."Wrath said before he got destroyed.
"It's done."Draco said.
The others arrived along with Ed and Al since they just saw the last homunculus defeated.
"It's over."Ed said.
But then something crashes on to the middle of the ground and they saw Father glaring at them.
"What?!"Ed said.
"He looks our father."Al said.
"He must have copied his appearance."Draco said.
"You ruined my plans!"He was mad."Now i'll kill you!"
The soldiers charged at him but he uses a shockwave to push them away.
But then a rain of bullets came down at him and he grunts, the one shooting him is Nobunaga who was summoning her rifles.
"You think we weren't ready to stop you!"Nobunaga said.
He goes to attack her but Kiyohime appears behind him surprising the guy."Where are you looking at?"She punches him away.
Mata Hari dances past him and he tries to attack her but he got hit by Stheno and Euryale.
"Wow they're pushing him around."Al said.
"Let's get him!"Victor said.
They charged at Father attacking him from all the sides making him grunt.
He tries to push them back with a shockwave but Recorder used his Alchemy to reverse it making him get blown away.
"My Alchemy has been surpassed!"Father was shocked.
Jalter stabs him away and he grunts before the real Jeanne ruler came down hitting him away.
Jeanne saw Jalter and was shocked to see her."What?!"
"We'll explain later!"Zack said.
Cleopatra came and blasted father making him grunt, Psiren came and throws many cards cutting him.
Lan Fan charges at him and hits the guy away as Scáthach stabs him with his spear.
Medb strikes him and Olivier slashes the homunculus.
Altera stabs him with her sword letting many to shoot at him.
Nursery Rhyme uses a spell with her book hitting him many times.
Father tries to blast them but Leonidas sends it back at Father making him scream.
Yui punches him many times with Ed hitting him back too, Chloe came and slashes Father with her blades.
Draco charges at him with his student Lyra as they hit him away with they're Alchemy and Victor summons his familiars to strike down.
Father gets up slowly and grunts, Lust and Ling watched him and they got surprised.
"How can this be, how can I be defeated by the likes of them."He looks at Kazuo."I will not lose."He charges at him and jabs his arms at Kazuo's chest.
Kazuo blinks and looks at him.
"I will absorb you and gain that power!"He said but then something happened."What?!"
His body was being drained and they got shocked.
"Kazuo reversed it!"Yui said.
Leonidas smirks."Of course he did, should anyone try to absorb him Kazuo will reverse it."
"This can't be!"Father was now a husk as Kazuo smiles before hitting him away.
"My Stone...? You destroyed my Stone...?"God's arms now extend from the hole, beginning to consume Father."No...! This can't... WHAT IS THIS?!""
"Go back to where you belong!"Ed said.
Father was then brought inside of him.
Then a small orb creature with One eye appeared in a white void with a door behind him.
He turns to it."Tell me, why did you refuse to join me? Why God? How did I disappoint you?"
"You were incapable in believing in yourself."He turns around and sees a creature that is a white version with no eyes but with a grin.
"You stole your power from others, you reject your human origins and chose to covet the power of what you call God. You never proved beyond your days in the flask, did you think you become superior to humans by removing your seven desires, don't make me laugh!"
Father got mad."What's wrong with that? I only wanted to obtain perfection! I wanted this worlds knowledge for my own! Why should I be punished for that? What's wrong with craving knowledge? What's wrong with seeking perfection?"The being just smiled."Well, speak! What are you, anyway? Do you even have a name? Who the hell do you think you are!?"
"Who am I? One name you might have for me is The World, or you might call me The Universe, or perhaps God, or perhaps the Truth. I am all and I am one, so of course this also means that I am you."
Father was shocked.
"I am the truth of your despair."
The door behind opened and he sees a giant eye.
"Don't do this to me. I can't... I can't go back."He backs away as many arms came to grab father."Please stop! I can't bare to be bound any longer! WAHHH! AHHHHHHH! No! No no no no!"
"You failed to know the truth."Truth said.
"Please just tell me what I was supposed to do!"
Father saw it closing making him shocked before it closed.
"You should have seen it with your own eyes."Truth said."Now it's time for the other."
Back at the world.
Recorder was at the battlefield and said:"It's time."
He changes back surprising them before his mind went away.
"What's he doing?"Victor said.
Catherine looks at him."Richard?"
Draco looks at him and got shocked."Don't tell me your seeing God!"
With True form Recorder
He appears in Truth's realm and was seeing him who become a copy of his size.
"So you came in your true form, even then, I am more powerful than you, but I suppose you came to make a deal?"Truth said.
"Yes, for Ed and Al to have they're missing pieces back."Recorder said.
"And what shall you pay for it, your life?"Truth asked.
"Us merging together."He said.
"Huh?"Truth said surprised.
"Wouldn't be that good, our existances to become one will certainly pay a good price."Recorder said.
Truth laughs a bit."I see, but are you ready for that, once we fuse you might not be the main one anymore and a new God will be born in the future."
"It is what must be done, I was created to preserve knowledge but I know that one must evolve beyond what others have made mistakes."He said.
"YES! YOU'VE DONE IT! THAT'S THE RIGHT ANSWER! GOOD JOB! YOU BEAT ME!"
They glowed before coming together.
A shockwave appeared in the world as Ed saw his arm come back shocking him.
The armor Al has came off revealing his human body.
"What happened?"Winry came and saw it all.
Leonidas was in shock and saw Recorder's body looking down with dull eyes.
"Recorder sacrificed his own being in order to restore Al and Ed."
They got shocked.
"No!"Catherine runs towards him and hugs his body."Please come back!"She cries.
Recorder then sees a woman that isn't any of the girls he met but a shape that resembles his sister and she smiles at him.
"You did a good job."
His eyes gained life and looks up making them worried.
"We have returned."He said.
They smiled and cheered, Winry hugs Hank making him chuckle.
Ed looks at Recorder."Hey thanks."
"You are welcome."
The girls that likes the guys hugged them making them chuckle, Rose came back to be with Aka and he was happy to see her just fine.
They saved a world once again and defeated a enemy they didn't know thanks to Recorder.
Note:Father and Wrath are gone, yes Recorder and Truth merged together, his form is still the same but a new power will be born later.
