39. C291:Bloodshed On the Road to Perdition

Chapter 291: The Bitter Bloodshed On the Hellish Crossroads That's Paved With Good Intentions.

While just about everyone on Corneria was in a dire situation wither they realized it or not, Mike was the one having to juggle figuring out how to deal with two people he once thought as friends turning on him at once for different reasons. At the moment Brainwave just got out of the rubble that he got hit into by Astra before he grasped his head and looked around him." That demon brat will see what true hell is when I show her the nightmares I have, oh?"

He paused as he noticed Brandon was above him, and saw his transformed Nephew nearly looking drunk on his new power before he sighed." So, the transfer from the people linked to the Faith Generators worked eh? Good…though a pity we had to try out are trump card so soon on the "Kiddo."

Brandon saw his uncle's detached look before he snickered." It's all good Uncle Walter. I could have put down Chloe without it but well…wanted to make clear who's the alpha in this family! Tsc…ma and pa let Chloe get away with so much just because she was a girl.

He…he always gave me crap for any thing I did wrong "because I had to remember the responsibilities as super powered individuals " but she dated the god damn son of Skyfox and was on drugs half the time but got a pass but I was the one that was suppose to " inherit" his will even though he never planned on dying! But all that and he never even knew how to really save these people! But we sure are now!"

"Correct Brandon…at last things will be how they should be…for the winners at least. Still…thanks for securing the situation while I was…preoccupied Lady Makima."

The red-haired woman gave a detached look to the bearded man before giving out a hollow smile." Why I was just doing my job ensuring that Prince Auro saw things clearly. Sadly, the corruption was worst then I thought but…with enough faith…or at least enough power of faith…he will see the light along side all the others."

Mike winced at the look the woman he almost thought of as a possible girlfriend gave him." See the light? No matter what you say, this has to be Brainwave messing with yah like Burns, Makima. I mean…there's wanting peace…and wanting to sterilize the whole universe and this whole thing sounds just like dragging everyone down door number two!"

"Have you been too distracted to listen to what has been said Mike? Its fixing Heaven, and at last freeing us form having to be threatened by things such as the Death stranding, the Viltrumite clan, The" Seven" and the rest. How could being safe and happy be wrong?"

Mike winced as he looked up bitterly." I get how the common citizen would jump at that but you know better! You know that Sieg and the rest of the Infinite Victory and Conquest corporation are out there across the Multiverse!

I get that most people would not even understand but the truth is that even if this works…and we shift everyone to heaven…that won't stop Sieg. He broke into the Time Nest without breaking a sweat so sad to say its a fair bet he can walk into any universe's heaven like its nothing and then we would just be sitting ducks."

For the first time Makima looked conflicted as she glanced at Brainwave." No…this heaven would seal us from all other realities in this Multiverse. We would be free from everyone."

Brainwave nodded before adding" That's right…everyone will get what they deserve."

Makima paused before she looked down." Its still are best option for a future Mike…you have nothing but blind hope."

"Makima…sometimes you have to risk it all to keep holding on to what matters to you."

Brainwave laughed before he cracked his neck." Hold on? You have nothing left Mikey! I tell you what your sister in law has turned her back on you and your family, you have nothing left! All your pals either got blown up in the sky or are about to be put down by are allies. Hell, after this "donation" I'm going to own that Equalizer whore myself!"

Mike saw Brandon's glee before he grasped his fist tightly." Damn it…you don't know what's going on at all man you, GUH!"

In a flash Mike was grasped by his former friend on the mouth and slammed so hard into the ground that it left a crater that seemed to shake the entire city. As Mike let out a muffled scream Brandon looked full of anger as he got right in the curly haired man's face." You're still talking like that? YOU'RE THE ONE WHO DOES NOT KNOW A DAMN THING MIKE! I seen true power man, I saw what V-Day and his true top dogs can do. That's why I'm going to be the in on the meeting of the champs, and not get thrown out with the trash!

Are pa's had more than enough chances to prove there way's could work, but look at where we are now eh? All the" legendary Hero's" Are either dead or on death's door! You could not stop me before and you sure as hell can't stop me now that I have the power of the people of your capital planet backing me! I have everything and you have nothing so the only question that remains is how hard do I have to thrash you till, GUH!"

Before he could slam Mike down, Burns showed he was not as down as everyone thought as he tackled Paragon. As Brandon hit the wall he saw the older man become consumed with flames before the captain of Special Fire Force Company 1 growled out," The flames of the Bethal Kingdom may be down to a ember but they are not out yet…not while I still draw breath! Run Prince Auro! Voltage Nova…Stage Five!"

As flames consumed Brandon he narrowed his eyes." Run? There's no where to run dumbass! This entire planet…and the rest of the god damn universe' is ours so there's huh?"

To his shock he felt an arrow go down his mouth, before he saw James appear at Mike's side before the former member of Squad 7 glared at his target." Your judgment is not quite on the ball, not yet."

Fragile then appeared a mock bow as she put up her umbrella." Despite all this, Fragile Express does not recognize your authority."

Mike saw James ready his Quincy bow before he smirked." Master Elrond…you guys made it out ok?"

"Just about Mike." James answered grimly." 2B…gave everything she had to break the ship's emergency warp protection. It was rushed so we did not all land in the same spot…but most of us got out ok. We found the others who were not caught by are foes…so while I'm not sure just what is going on I think it would be wise for a change of pace."

"Hey no arguing here." Mike retorted tensely as he ran up to Fragile. Brandon saw this and got enraged." No…no way in hell your getting out of the ass whooping you have coming to you Mikey!"

"No…the embers of hope will be kept alive on my watch!" Burns cried out as he used all of his remaining strength to have a cage of fire surround Brandon." Prince Auro…Master Elrond…I apologize for failing my duty. Its to late for this old soldier, but at least finish the mission and learn from are mistakes!"

Mike winced before he gave a swift salute." You got it Burns."

Mike answered grimly. Brandon saw James fire a barrage of energy arrows to keep Brainwave back before he grit his teeth." You think flames can keep me back when I'm all but God now? You smug son of a, huh?"

He saw a sphere suddenly land on the ground between him and Mike before Sam Porter ran up next to Fragile and uttered," You may be a god now but even god has mail orders…so here's all the package that was requested just for you."

The sphere unleashed a sound-wave that made Makima, Brandon, and Walter all grasp there ears before Hutch wrapped over to Fragile with a unconscious Chole in his free hand before he gave Walter the middle finger." We are not just rolling over to you assholes yet! See yah real soon!"

Fragile and Hutch used their combined warp powers to take the group out of the area. Burns saw they had left before he smirked." The flames of hope may be battered…but they are not blown out as easily as you lot t, GUH!"

Brandon punched Burns through his heart before his eyes widened with rage." I HAD ENOUGH OF YOU ASSHOLES! I'll show you what real power is! Divine Rapture Flash!"

Brandon had a golden energy sphere form in the hole in Burn's body and had it flare out. Burns gave one defiant scream as he was blasted through the sonic device Sam left, before the sphere blasted through a few buildings and went into the ocean.

The blast vaporized half of the port before Brandon laughed at seeing Burns being vaporized." HAH! See what your flames amount to you, huh?"

He realized Mike was gone before Makima sighed." Maybe…but even if those flames could not hurt you, they did seem to succeed in being enough of a distraction for them to escape. It seems…Reminton and Rex failed to kill even more then we thought."

Brandon snarled with rage as he flew up." He can't run now! Let's go Uncle Walter and kill everyone who's left!"

Walter sighed before he closed his eyes." Your zeal is…appreciated boy. But, it might be wise to direct it properly. There's no need to play games when we know where Mike will try and go."

Makima nodded as she looked back up at the Angel's Halo." Your right…Mike will try and stop Queen Bria one way or another. And if he fails then he will be with us in paradise so there's no point in overthinking this. Soon…all the lies and misunderstanding will melt away as we all ascend to paradise."

Brainwave heard the explosions in the distance before he cracked his neck." Come Brandon, lets check on the Queen, see who is left to deal with, and deal with things like the professionals we are eh nephew?"

Brandon paused before he wiped the blood off his jaw." Yah, that makes sense. Mikey…you can only have enough pawns left to die in your place! Reality's coming to whoop your ass to the next dimension one way or another!"

Makima paused before she looked in the sky." Just give up Mike…and accept what the people have chosen. Then just maybe…you can be free of the guilt and at last be happy."

The Public Safety Devil Hunter swept some dirt off her collar before heading back.

As she did, the ones she was working for seemed indifferent, or outright oblivious to all the despair going on around them.

---

While Kisara and Dohalim had managed to get to Die-Hardman before being taken over by the fanatics, Wendy had gone with Nazamil, to see the man Van hated one more time, and that had led her to be one of the ones in the chamber with the Claw, Maruki, Bria and many of the others.

As the Birthday System Armor charged up the Claw waved to his followers." Thank you everyone, I know it's been a stressful day but if all goes well it will be the last stressful day any of us ever has! Oh, did I startle you miss?"

Wendy winced as the man with the claw saw her before she saw everyone looking at her and winced." Sorry, its all, been much scarier than I thought possible."

Her brother saw her at last before his eyes widened." Wendy? What are you doing here?"

The Claw put his hand up before smiling." Its ok my son, I saw your sister earlier today. She was lost, but I'm glad she saw what would end her worries. It seems like you have had to worry about a lot my child. Michael, that looks like the gun you once had."

Wendy winced before she looked down." My brother gave it to me, its mine now."

"I see…I'm sorry this universe made you go through so much suffering, but I truly hope it ends soon."

"Just one thing sir…I have to know…is it true you're dying soon?"

While Bria, Garnet, and some of the others looked up the Claw just smirked." That's no lie dear."

"Then…why are you going to sacrifice yourself and cause people so much trouble? No…no one wants you to…"

"Why are you asking such things?" The Claw bluntly retorted, causing Wendy to winced." Why?"

"You should be able to tell. You sense the true significance of what I'm trying to do, not just what it appears to be on the surface. I heard about it from your brother. All the injuries you two of you encountered and the senseless violence you were submitted to."

"He…he told you everything? No, that, that's just the way this universe is and there is nothing we can do about it."

While many around her looked at her like she spoke heresy the Claw just sighed." I truly feel sad for you my child if this broken universe tormented you so much for you to submit to such logic. After all that's just giving up is it not? Let's "Actualize" the universe we all want, the one we deserve. I suppose as today is proving, things will be a bit confusing, but it will be ok. My dream has taken everything into consideration, and eventually no one will be hurt."

Wendy saw the sincere faith in the older man's eyes before she looked down again." But even so, I still don't…understand. Why…why do you need my brother for this dream of yours? Why did you force him to come with you?"

Garnet winced before he grit his teeth." Sister…I told you that I joined the Comrade of my own free will those scum just polluted your head with empty lies."

The Claw chuckled before adding," Its true that I heard your brother had the abilities of the Original Seven armor users, as well as the talent to get people going. He was just the kind of person that I wanted to create this new universe for. I wanted to talk and meet him in person.

But, my physical condition made that difficult so dear Fasalina hear spoke to him on my behalf after there was a misunderstanding. I admit, I did choose poorly at first, the first person I sent was a dishonest opportunist that joined are church merely to be part of something with power and used violence, that mistake was corrected."

"How awful!" Wendy blurted out." You're a coward to say things such as that now."

"Yes, that's right." The Claw retorted without any attempt to defend himself as he bowed." You're precisely right. I'm so sorry dear."

Wendy saw the Claw looked sincere before tears formed in her eyes." I…I don't know what to do. I, I know what you did but, I can't think of you as a bad person anymore."

The Claw looked up and cleared his throat." I have a suggestion. If it's all right…won't you share your dream with me? You can see the birth of this new universe, my dream, with your own eyes."

Wendy saw her brother, Fasalina, and even Bria looking at her before she sighed." I can't do that."

While Garnet had his eye twitch the Claw only laughed." That's a wonderful thing about you, don't change when you get older. I should have met you all sooner. Much sooner. I had so many friends that shared my dream…they were all filled with love…but…they ended up killing each other because of the insanity of this broken universe.

That…that's when I learned the hard way that no matter how much people progress…no matter how much they try and change their environment…they cannot escape their stagnant instincts. I could not take it anymore. I swore…that no matter what I would create a universe without conflict! Its pains me to think I made you the slightest bit unhappy Wendy."

"Don't fret comrade." Garnet replied firmly." Everything your doing is for the sake of the universe, which means you're doing it for Wendy as well so that we can all have the promise fulfilled and live in the time of happiness! Even if people misunderstand now, once we are in heaven they will all see the light!"

"Your right." The Claw replied." So, let's begin to move things along."

Bria nodded as energy started to swerve around her." Do you not feel it child? Imagination and reality are on the verge of becoming one, as half of the universe is all but on fire. Madness, passivity, apathy, wrath, destructibility, fear, loathing, and despair.

You can't hear it yet but you will soon, the collective unconscious of all these wills across the universe that I'm now hearing because of Angel Halo.

The hope that exists in this universe, one might call it optimism but it is actually only resignation. As long as we live in this broken universe, all things in creation are doomed to destruction from the moment they are born…all people…all planets…everything. Imagine, to image is to create all possibilities and to erase all possibilities.

But the laws of the universe will be painted over once more…then sentient human beings were born, and their collective unconscious came to embrace a single wish…for the final destination of biological and planetary evolution, is paradise. I learned the hard way that there is no such thing as a human with a subjective will.

They are merely carried along, sometimes by their government, or by religion. We all thought we were making our own free choices, but in actuality, we only changed the thing that we let carry are choices.

These days humans put their faith in information on the internet as if were there true religion, they are carried along by the trends they find there with no will of their own they worship the collective unconscious…the multitude of unsubstantial opinions that exist on social media.

Mindless drones who are carried along by rumors and trends without a thought of their own. I just had to take one look at social media and I see mobs of people who are carried away by the latest craze, gossip, insubstantial fad. The way they swarm to those trends, they're like bugs to a flame.

My father, and Richard's parents resented this for so long. But, this is how we are, so should we not accept that and go with what makes us happy? Mike, will all of your hero friends at last embrace are true wish? No, at last we will be happy."

Maruki saw her conflict before he nodded." They may be passionate about saving lives, but they refuse to open their minds and realize what will truly save people. This harsh universe is going to be fixed… just a bit more, and everything will be okay."

Bria nodded before she closed her eyes. "Your right Doctor. Humankind lives by platitudes and false pretenses. Each individual wears a mask that hides their true intentions. Humans by nature are instinctual and barbaric.

The evolution of civilization has suppressed that natural, that's all. But we can be free of that at last. Mike, even that Astra should understand if they just let go of their pride. They have to understand."

The Claw sighed as he walked up to the Birthday System." Don't fret Queen Bria, are defenses should keep even the most rowdy of those who disagree like that Omni-Man back. Still, we should begin to not delay the true path."

Wendy saw Nazamil look excited before the girl from Rena put her hands together." At last no one will be discriminated by, everyone can be happy together."

The teenager from Endless Illusion winced as she stepped back. But…is that really living or spending your whole life in a dream? I, don't know what I can do but, I know I have to do something. I know, that the others are still out there somewhere.

She saw a hologram display showing Van fighting with the Gundam pilots and the SRX team above before she looked on tensely.

Little did she know that Mike and the others were not as far away as she feared.

---

At around the same time Mike found himself landing on solid ground and looked around before he tensed up." What happened? Are…are we somewhere safe?"

"No where is safe Prince Auro…but for now this place is secure enough to let us regroup with enough time to hopefully strike back."

Mike swerved around and saw Die-Hard Man, with Ringo, Kisara, Dohalim, and a few of the Bethal Kingdom high command that did not get brainwashed or killed were behind him. The man in the black mask saw Mike was in one piece and let out a heavy sigh." Good work Fragile. Now…now we know what's left at least."

"What's left!?" Mike shout out with indignation." What the hell happened when we left!?"

Ringo sighed before she walked up." We, mostly been trying to not get shot till now but, from what we gathered right after you guys' left Queen Bria somehow got contacted by Brandon. We have been so caught up with things that, we failed to really check who was still in contact with the Sanderson family."

Die-Hardman winced as he looked down." Doctor Takuto Maruki, Olivia Pierce, Tokiko Shigure, Dr. Giovanni, and even the man known as the Claw otherwise known as Koo Krying Kroo all had contacts with Walter Sampson, but we were to focused on Thragg and Homelander to see him and Brandon as more then underlines.

But, we all forgot just how much influence the Infinite Victory and Conquest corporation had. We kept expecting something big like what you showed us in the footage of the Time Nest or how they wiped out planet Viltrum. But we…we assumed they were in a rush.

But, they slowly took over one part at a time, compromising one person at a time till they took over."

Dohalim nodded before he grasped his staff bitterly." Miss Wendy told us something felt off with a man she met, and we were talking with Sir um...Diehard man right when we were attacked."

Kisara sighed as she grasped her fist tightly." We wanted to take Wendey with us but...Nazamil dragged her with her. Nazamil...she wants to be free of the pepole who hate her so badly that this" Claw's" words were like honey to her."

The man in the black mask sighed as he looked around."They only did not put much effort into capturing me because they did not think I was that important. Though…I admit on my own I'm feeling rather damn helpless right about now."

Zero was one of the ones who was warped over before he punched the ground in frustration." Why…why even bothering doing all of this?"

Mike paused, and remembered how Sieg acted before he looked down." I can't say I know for sure but…its almost like they want to have fun killing us, and make us kill each other because they can.

But all that matters is not dying as part of their damn game! I heard Bria rant about a lot of stuff but was all caught up in the shock of it all so any know what the hell is really going on and what about it is real and how do we stop it?"

Ringo sighed before she looked down." Figue…confronted me when she tried to have us join her. I tricked her into explaining the plan because she thought it was winning me over. These guys are slamming a lot of plans into one mega plan but, it does seem like its going somewhere."

She pressed a button before a hologram appeared and many devices took form. She started from the left before she sighed." They managed to take control of the Argent Energy Tower, otherwise known as the Argent Inductor, to make it go into overdrive.

It takes a very precise balance to keep the tower's primary purpose to harness Argent plasma from the Fractured space-time fissures, convert it to usable Argent Energy, and beam Argent packages to the galaxies.

By shifting that balance, it could the realms to converge on each other. But they are also using devices like all the Cosmic Cube's, Zohar Emulators, and more to reconfigure reality into the new heaven.

They are using the Universal Church of Truth's Faith Generators, devices, which could channel the energy of belief from its followers, along with the Angel Halo, the psycommu fortress that also effects minds, and the Quiet Zero Elysium Fortress to create a gigantic data storm network across the universe, causing the Metaverse merging with reality to in theory create the new heaven, with the" Believers" and the" Sinners" being left apart. A true "rapture" if you will. I'm not really sure it will work or not to be honest as we hardly had time to look at the data. To "

"It does not matter if their outcome is legit." Mike cut in bluntly." I just was on the verge of getting my head caved in from Brandon, and he and Walter made it clear they sold a con to look good to Seig. It does not even matter to them if it works or not, like I said Sieg will just come for them no matter if they are in heaven or hell.

I know that this sounds like what we always dreamed of but the dream's changed. Frankly no matter how many want to keep there heads stuck in the clouds...the truth is the only salvation for anyone in this universe is out side of it, AKA the Multiverse."

Die-hardman saw the resolve in Mike's eyes before he sighed." And you think we even have the chance to evaluate are entire society into the Multiverse when are enemies have compromised us this much?"

Mike paused before he nodded." I'm not going to make a bet on it, but it's still the best choice we have. But, guess we have to break all this fake miracle stuff before that can happen right? Even if they went over kill, we still have enough firepower to break it if we just get a clear shot right?"

Ringo saw half the people in the room look shocked before she cleared her throat." Prince Auro…I know you and Queen Bria have not been on the best of terms for a while but you're not really saying you want to kill her do you?"

Mike winced before he looked down." No…of course not. I know…that all this stuff being thrown on her really might have broke her. I want to save her, even if she will hate me for it. So we just don't blow up where she is now, surely we have enough stuff to pull that off right?"

"I'm afraid you don't realize how badly we been compromised Mike." The masked man uttered as he pressed a button. He showed a hologram of a Bethal Admiral making a speech before her crew suddenly shooting her before he sighed." Fleet Admiral Elizabeth Shelby on the USS Enterprise-F was kicking off the Festivus Day celebrations and initiated the new "Fleet Formation" protocol that connects all are warships ships with Aeon's central mainframe.

We found out too late that a member of the changeling race, Vadic, had compromised the entire fleet. The Vought clan had experimented on what was left of there race from the Gamma Quadrant to make there morphing skills surpass the Skrulls and after there "Project Proteus" was able to make them be able to perfectly replicate the anatomy, physiology, and cell biology of any species and fool blood screenings and other methods of detection.

We arrested her, thinking she was just a pirate who stole the ship the Shrike, and it all started from there. We only just figured out now that she and the others infect officers under the age of twenty five to take over are entire fleet just for this moment. Picard and a few managed to elude this but, needless to say the situation is now, severely compromised."

Mike saw how grim he looked before he looked back at the sky." Well, there has to be something we can do right?"

Johnny Sliverhand was one of the ones who was with the group before he chuckled bitterly." I think I have an idea man but you guys are going to hate it. Look, gist of it is that while there's some magic involved a lot of this is rapture is going down by these super-weapons right? If we don't have the fire power to blow them up in time then, there's room to hack these toys."

Mike paused before he cleared his throat." I know you're a legend Sliverhands but you think your skilled enough of a netrunner to shut all of those things down."

"Hell no kid, but I can get the force that can, if you let down the wall, or the Blackwall."

Die-Hardman had his eye twitch before he hissed out," We have enough problems as it is without more threats coming down on are country."

Zero paused before he winced." We really want to depend on more mavericks to bail us out of this?"

Diehardman glanced down before he sighed." The Blackwall is a firewall developed by are NetWatch division. Located within the Net, it is tasked with keeping rogue AIs from breaking through into the rest of cyberspace and wreaking havoc.

Ever since the DataKrash caused by the terrorist Rache Bartmoss, humanity was forced to sacrifice its access to invaluable resources and knowledge for the safekeeping of the Net.

The Blackwall's task was to secure an area of the Net for human use while holding at bay the threat of the dangerous rogue artificial intelligence's that were released decades earlier into cyberspace.

The truth is that, Blackwall is not a firewall, but actually a powerful AI masquerading as ICE, whose job is to keep out any rogue AIs it can identify from the secure net. Honestly, it is also referred to as a band-aid solution, due to fact that the Blackwall, being an AI, could go rogue itself."

"It's not going maverick, its being free. Its not just a guard down, its freaking Alt!"

Jonny saw Mike looked confused before he sighed." Altiera Cunningham… better known as Alt, was the best netrunner in Night City…till she was kidnapped by the Arasaka Corporation, who used her to create a version of the program for them, and later made her the program's first victim. Now her consciousness exists only as a digital ghost in the Net.

During the Fourth Vought Corporate War, Alt Cunningham's digital ghost was contacted by Militech, who asked her help in destroying the Soukiller 2.0. She agreed with the hopes of taking revenge on the Arasaka and convinced Rache Bartmoss to help in the effort. She was later captured by Arasaka, who forced her to develop the Soulkiller 3.0.

Militech deployed an attack on the Arasaka Towers, with me leading one of the teams with the hopes of rescuing Cunningham. After infiltrating the building, she was contacted by Netrunner Spider Murphy, who informed her of Bartmoss' death before downloading her into the memory core.

During the conversation, Cunningham gave Spider a piece of the Soulkiller to use if needed. Later, however, after the team got ambushed by Adam Smasher and two squads of Arasaka Troopers, Cunningham was scattered into the Net by Spider, with hopes of retrieving her someday, while I was then captured and made a cyber ghost till that luckless sad sack V put my bio chip in her brain and well, long story short I had a second shot at life.

But for Alt well, I found out that Cunningham set up a digital haven for the other victims of Soulkiller. Right before I tagged along with you guys, I tried to bust her out of the Mikoshi program.

Mikoshi is one of Saburo Arasaka's main projects. It is a data fortress located within a part of cyberspace controlled by the Arasaka Corporation, with servers found on orbital stations around the Vought worlds. It contains the digitized personalities of clients from the "Secure Your Soul" program, as well as the victims obtained through Soulkiller.

After I freed her, Cunningham destroyed the Mikoshi subspace and forced all the occupants to merge with her, the members of the Secure Your Soul program as well as victims of Soulkiller. But then she was contained within the Bethal Kingdom firewall."

"For good reason." Diehardman grumbled back." She was trying to hack are systems. Do you realize what damage she could have done?"

"Yah…she could have the processing power to seriously fry those doomsday weapons and bail out your sorry ass "John". I admit I was waiting till things were less " tense" but it's either now or never."

"And what promises do you have that are systems won't be wrecked by the time its done?"

"None but if this fails it won't really matter now will it?"

Mike paused before he looked down." John…I know that keeping things together is your whole thing but we have to focus on what's worth saving.

Most of our systems already seem compromised so might as well do what we can to ensure we have some future! I'd say, if Alt and her super cyber processing whatever power and stop this then that's worth betting on to me."

"Maybe…but you realize that if this goes wrong we might not have a nation anymore Prince Auro? I keep wondering how I survived this long. And I keep telling myself its God's plan to be strong and keep the nation together."

"No, he didn't. "Mike cut in sharply." Nobody who's paying attention wants a leader who acts like they're immortal. If you're not scared of death, how can you value life? And life's pretty damn fragile right now.

And yeah, the old ways die hard, but that's what's gonna have to happen… if we're gonna come together and build a better nation. Yah, a lot of people seem to want this dream, but we have to save them to see it fall, so that we can at last build something new. So, do you have any other options, or do we have time to get to Bria from here and…wait where are we anyway?"

Diehard man sighed before he looked around." This is your mother's family's summer palace's bunker or panic room Mike. I doubt you were here much as it's not really for fun. It was just low priority enough to not be captured by the traitors, mostly because it was abandoned for some time."

Mike winced as he looked at the old Raystar emblem on the wall, and looked at a camera, realizing he was indeed at a place he went on vacation with his family a decade ago before he saw a camera seeing the outside of the palace that was run down, and had graffiti on it such as" The Auro family's light is a hollow sham!" before he winced." Right. I know…mom kept this place for the sake of her sister's families all these years but admitted it had a lot of memories that were painful at times.

With all that's happened…dad did not feel safe being here to long. Even in the planet that was there home, they became so wary of Doug and his supporters that they only really felt safe on Tri-Edge where they controlled everything and did not have to depend on anyone but themselves…and even that could not protect us. Hey…do you think this is what my parent's endgame was all along?"

James saw Mark, Crash, Zero, Kisara, Cid, Ratchet, Fragile, Tanjiro and some of the others in the room look conflicted before he took a deep breath." This is not their plan Mike, I promise. Its true that your parents, myself and just about the majority of the Enji and the Lylat Kingdom wanted a easy answer and tried to bring peace by the Homeostasis Matrix Connection, and it took Doug nearly bringing the end of everything to force us to admit we just pushed what we wished everyone to act like on the rest of the universe for the" greater good" just because the pepole we talked to agreed with us.

While Ben and Lacus had many frustrations about the state of things they were never going to backtrack. But Bria in her pain seems to be willfully forgetting those lessons we learned to try and frantically make her hope become reality no matter the cost."

Mike nodded as he took a deep breath." Well…then we have to wake her up before its to late. Even if she will hate me, she will be alive to see the truth. I'd rather her hate me for the rest of the life than drown in a dream. So let's see if we can wake everyone up from this nightmare before it's to late. Is…is this everyone that's left aside from Astra?"

Diehardman looked around before he looked at the monitors. Not everyone was warped here, there was some interference. It seems a good number of your comrades landed around the Wakanda Embassy for some reason. Astra is still fighting the now clearly mad Abigail, and Ezan is fighting…the majority of the mind-controlled Enji around Hollowed Bastion."

Mike raised an eyebrow as he looked at the map." Wakanda? Well if Tyson can get more back up then that works for me. Alright, lets move before we lose anyone else!"

Tanjiro hugged a teary Nezuko as he winced." Popola…Devola…I know they would never have killed Giyu normally…these monsters turned such kind people into murders! I won't ever forgive them!"

Zero saw Kaine pat Nezuko on the shoulder and nodded before he grasped his Z saber tightly." I'm not going down till whoever messed with X, Alia, and everyone else gets reduced to scrap! I, will fulfill his last wish."

Before others could agree a voice cut in with a wary," I wanted you to see the mission through Zero…not die along side me."

Zero shrugged before retorting with," Hey come on X don't focus on…wait huh? X your, what the? "

Zero and Axl looked on in shock at the source of their friend's voice, but were shocked to see it came from the pod that use to belong to 9S. As they blinked in confusion X sighed." Yah its me guys. My body was compromised…but 9S had erased his Pod's will so I was able to transfer my mind to this body. I…can't really help fight for now but…I can give advice at least. Good thing I figured out how to evolve the Soul Body weapon."

As the pod put out a holographic image of X Zero could not help but laugh out loud." Man…to think we have to thank God damn Split Mushroom for you getting out of being screwed. Still…I'll take what I can get. Don't worry X, we will get you a new body when this is done!"

Axl nodded as he saw Alia, Harpuna, Fefnir, Leviathan, Layer and Pallette all unconscious but still alive in the corner before he nodded." I'm glad we could not lose everyone but…still…they took Douglas, Pierre and Signas, and so many more from us! They can't keep getting away with this!"

Mike nodded before he looked at the sky and saw it starting to bend." Sieg…he really thinks he can just take everything away form us and make a game out of it…but somehow we have to prove him wrong damn it."

"Then get ready." Ringo retorted." We have one shot to sneak up on them and strike back, we got to make it count."

Mike nodded before he looked around." Then let's place the final bet for this world guys. Bria…I know you miss everyone but…you have to see this is not what Richard, or any of us really wanted. Got to get you to wake up before its to late."

As Mike grimly planned his last shot at saving his sister-in-law and his people, despite what most in the room hoped for, Tyson was not getting "Back up" from his people but were about to be attacked by them.

---

The scene at the Wakanda Embassy was downright frosty, and it only got tenser as Tyson saw his brother look at those around the Black Panther and snicker in disgust." I always knew I was the stronger of us brother, but if I knew a simple mission like this would have compromised your resolve I would never have given you the title of Black Panther in the first place!"

Sonic saw N'Jakaka's dismissive look and rolled his eyes." That's your father or something dude? Guy has like, zero chill!"

The ruler of Wakanda snarled before uttering," Brother...these clowns don't even know Wakanda's ruler? You taught these fools nothing about Wakanda pride? You failed your mission!"

Shadow looked around and got ready to move before he sighed." We have not failed are mission yet, but the universe will be lost to the Vought clan if you stop getting in are way."

"Seriously." Sonic added tensely." Mike needs are help freeing his sister in law like, yesterday so lets get going!"

This caused N'Jadaka to laugh as he looked down." Mike…like Mike Auro? You really are just pathetic primitives eh? My brother was sent to spy on the enemies of Wakanda! But if you're under the assumption that the Vought Clan is the enemy then your not aware of a great many things. But, the fact that my brother withheld the information that Mike Auro was alive all this time is far more outrageous!"

Tyson saw both sides were looking at him tensely before he grasped his fist tightly." I don't snitch, on anyone. If we are being dead serious then the cold truth is that I was not sure you been compromised "bro". If you have not notice a lot of people seem to be running around without the control of there minds around here. Honestly kind of hoping you have a slug in your brain or a mark on your hand to, would take your mind being jacked over you losing it!"

"I had enough of your insolence M'Baku!" The taller man uttered as his step caused the entire room to shake." I am the ruler of Wakanda…not you! Clearly hanging around with the failure of the Auro bloodline has corrupted you."

"And hanging out with Homelander and his cracker fanclub has thrown your mind out of wack! Do you seriously ever think Homelander will keep his word?"

"I'd rather have an unstable alliance then a damned one! There will be sacrifices but at least my people will survive! Meanwhile the Bethal Kingdom is about to be devoured by their own madness! All I had to do was help fool these" Warriors of light" and we will be rewarded by being on the winning side."

"And you really think its that simple? Sometimes the cost of victory is too steep N'Jadaka, and that death before dishonor is a thing! If this is what it takes for us to live, then just bury me in the ocean with my ancestors who jumped from the ships, because at least they knew death was better than bondage!"

"You would tell all citizens of Wakanda to jump to their deaths over the same worthless pride that these" heroes" have?"

Tyson saw the rest of the Wakanda staff, the Hatut Zeraze, the Dora Milaje, and even Merga, Velanj Garfuul, Gaston Gaucier, and the other Vyrian look at him before he narrowed their eyes." More like I would tell them that it's not going to be easy, but they either have to fight for there freedom or live on as a slave! Because make no mistake about it this is making us all their slaves! Maybe they got you to think you'd be the top slave but you'd still be one even if you're too blind to realize it! And if you don't realize it…then you're a bigger fool then I thought man."

N'Jadaka had his eye twitch before he roared with rage." ENOUGH! You are not the one who decides Wakanda law M'Baku! Its me who's word is law! I am the ruler of Wakanda and a king acts by acting like one and doing what must be done!"

Tyson saw the rage in his brother's eyes before he looked down." Don't you remember at all what are old man said bro? how he was taught by our ancestors all the way back to T'Challa.

When the crown came on his head he understood how heavy the crown's weight really is. They left the wisdom that power lies not in what a king does, but in what his subjects believe he might do.

It meant that the majesty of kings lay in their mystique…not in there might. Every act of might diminished the king, for it diminished his mystique. Might exposed the king's power and thus his limits. Might made the king human, breakable. N'Jadaka…you allowed legend and myth to fill the gap…and showed the whole universe how human you really are. And right now you sure are acting like the old school" Uncle Tom" over a king who has pride!"

His older brother had veins from on his forehead before hissing out," I know the teachings…and you more or less called me a fool! Those ancestors may have thought they were being wise, but they did not have to keep their people alive in a broken universe! There is no room for nuance anymore, nor for the luxury of having a mask of the shame that is civility. There is only room to be a predator or be devoured as prey! If we are fit enough to survive the universe as it is, that's all that matters as all these fools wishing for how reality would stay nice and kind for them are in for one very rude awakening."

Tyson paused before he looked around." I guess I was away on too many missions to notice how paranoid you got bro…otherwise I would have said something and called you out on your crap more! I don't want to hurt my people either, but if I do nothing it's clear you're going to hurt them a whole lot more. That's why…I challenge you to ritual combat over leadership of Wakanda!"

N'Jadaka had his eye twitch before he bared his teeth." I see that running around with these fools has made you quite delusional if you dare bare your fangs at me little brother! I kept you alive and this is how you repay me? You may have the decorations of the Black Panther…but I don't need anything but my power! You really would choose the pathetic Auro prince and this band of clowns over your own flesh and blood?"

Tyson took a deep breath before he cracked his neck." Since his head is not up his ass then guess so. I don't know if you really think you're going to protect Wakanda with this, but protection it not enough, force is not enough. We are also protecting our heritage, our traditions.

You always made it clear how much you gave up protecting Wakanda, but to be honest you made it clear the people are a burden to you and you never let them forget it.

You do the rituals, but you gave something more then recreation and ceremony by giving what all great kings ultimately offer…inspiration. I guess I'll have to do my best when this is done."

N'Jadaka paused before he looked down and uttered an icy," When this is done…you will be dead!"

Lighting suddenly crackled around the leader of Wakanda before his aura flared up with enough force to nearly blow everyone else away." So I don't "inspire" my people? In other words I don't make them feel happy enough? I keep them alive, they are spoiled if they think anything else matters! Look at these Bethal sheep, the lot of them run around naked like its the garden of Eden, just begging to be ripped apart as helpless sheep the moment there guarding angels fall, as they are about to.

Are these the words of the Auro family or those" Equalizers" in your head Tyson M'Baku Hamilton? Such wisdom got the " Last Emperor" and the rest of the "great" Auro family killed, and all who are infected with such nonsense will join them, including ungrateful brothers! No more discourse…no more deliberation…no more excuses and no more mercy!

This is not a debate, it's a war for dominance over the universe, and war is are people's trade. It has been for generations, we are terror itself! I am the panther-King who stalks the soul and drink in the malice of blinkered men and break them under my reign! If you dare bare your fangs at me then no amount of viburnum armor will stop me from ripping you apart!"

Tyson got into a fighting stance before his own aura flared up and his Black Panther helmet formed over his head." Then its time I prove I'm not just full of BS when I say I am the Damisa-Sarki! Get ready N'Jadaka because it's going to be one rough ride down off your hill!"

The two were motionless for a few moments before N'Jadaka smirked." I thought you wanted to fight me? To afraid to make the first move? I don't have time for this…I'll crush you like the fool you are! Hell-Stab…Four-Finger Nukite!"

Tyson's eyes widened as lighting crackled around his brother's right fist finger-tips before he in a flash performed a thrusting motion, and charged at the Black Panther like a lighting bolt.

The Wakanda warrior parried the strike with his Kuni but was smashed all the way to the wall of the chamber so fast that most in the room had to blink before turning around. Tyson had managed to intercept his brother's strike, but saw his kuni cracking before N'Jadaka howled with rage." I see you kept your instincts sharp, but not your body!"

"Oh that was just the warm up! I hope you're ready bro, because I'm just getting started."

Tyson grunted and tried to jab his brother's right arm's pressure point, only for a spark of lighting to zap him back. N'Jadaka only laughed at his brother's failed attempt." You think those tricks can work on me? You don't have the strength to get through my skin M'Baku! I am the darkness in the jungle of this universe brother, even the Black Panther can't match that!"

He suddenly widened his arms before limbs like girders of viburnum caught Tyson in an unbreakable hug, pinning the Black Panther's elbows to his creaking ribs. As he saw his younger brother yell in pain N'Jadaka sneered in disgust." I thought you wanted me to show more" compassion"? You never know what you want, that's why I have to, huh? Bah!"

N'Jadaka snarled before in a blur he thrust his arm back like a lighting bolt and smashed Sonic just as the hero from Mobius tried to attack with a Sonic Spindash from behind.

Rings went flying around the area as Sonic went crashing into the other side of the room. Shadow caught his longtime rival before he could crash into the wall before Sonic rubbed his head." Whoa...he was fast enough to tag me?"

N'Jadaka snarled with disgust before hissing out," Don't think you can save him cretin! Merga…take care of the others so I can punish my brother without interference!"

Merga glanced at Sonic and Shadow's looks before she snarled." You should have known not to interfere…now you will be devoured as offerings!"

"Bring it lady…you're just a bad rip off of Blaze to me!" Sonic yelled out defiantly. Lilac walked up before she nodded." If you want to finish what we started on ZDR then that's fine with me!"

Shadow eyed Lilac before he shrugged." Oh right…forgot you guys were here for a moment."

Carol shrugged as she looked at the others native to Avalice." Sorry, honestly been a rough ride since we been awaken centuries later and found out everyone we knew is dead and just about everyone in the universe wants to kill us has not made us very chatty yah hear me?"

"Fair enough. Still, Merga is it? We have no time to waste on you."

"Cocky are we? Then you will see that you are nothing but sacrifices. Trip…release the Dragon, its time for Barney's meal!"

Sonic raised an eyebrow before a brown and orange-scaled anthropomorphic sungazer lizard with black eyes and peach skin covering her muzzle and arms walked up. She had has two eyelashes on each side of her eyes, a small brown-pointed horn on her muzzle, three yellow spikes across her brown forehead, and a brown and orange zigzag-striped tail.

Trip's ears were orange and shaped like the spikes on her forehead. She wore a brown and yellow zigzag-layered dress-like sleeveless shirt with a gold patch on the chest, white gloves with gold cuffs, black tights, and orange shoes with gold toes and brown cuffs and heel-squared regions. She gave a curt bowl before she winced." Sorry everyone, we have to do this to keep living! Barney, BJ, wake up guys time to eat!"

She gonged a bell, before a wide purple circle appeared behind her, and everyone heard a roar. Suddenly a giant, indigo dragon with indigo wings, light purple membranes and black horns burst out of the magical circle.

It had red eyes, black claws and a long-scaled tail. For attire, it wore gray spiky bracelets and belt, and gray shoes.

On the other side of the group form another magical pentagram emerged a equally large red, black, and purple Crimson Dragon.

Shadow saw the creature eye it before he glared back." Bah…we don't have time for games…Chaos Spear!"

The being created from Black Doom fired the projectile at the dragon only for the beast to lash it back. Tails looked on in shock as he saw Vibranium spikes around the creature dubbed" Barney" before stepping back." I think I saw a file that this Crinson Dragon came from a Meteor Grave, which was a large meteor and server which formed in space entirely out of " Noise". But, this purple dragon looks like the monster Eggman unleashed on the Northstar Islands incident Sonic!"

"Oh yah? Hey this Trip girl does remind me of Cream now that I think of it…are they related? Wait…something feels off." Sonic retorted. Tails shrugged before looking at Shadow." Be careful, I think Eggman's old man Gerald used data on this creature to work on that Biolizard on the Ark!"

As Shadow raised a eyebrow the dragon roared before suddenly firing a small black spherical projectile and tried to counterattack , only to see the sphere act like a black hole and start to suck everyone in before he grit his teeth." What seriously? The hell is, GUH!"

Everyone was about to be sucked in before Sonic, Shadow, Knuckles, and Tails all unleashed their Chaos Emerald empowered forms and shattered the black hole. The dragon roared in outrage before Sonic wagged his finger." Think you can tag me" Barney"? You're going to have to be faster than that! Spin Slash!"

The now rainbow colored hedgehog curved his usual buzz-saw spin onto a horizontal axis, then spun fast enough to maintain a perfect circle and hit " Barney" hard enough to knock him out of the Embassy and into the room as Shadow did the same to "BJ" the Crimson Dragon.

"Barney" roared with fury and fired a large walls of energy from its aura to knock Sonic back. As the other hero's from Mobius all barraged Barney at once, Merga saw there determination and saw Trip's shock before she snarled at the lesser dragon." It's their fate Trip…any that deny are glory must be ripped apart so that we don't be part of the prey! Then the wrongs to are history will at last be corrected!"

Lilac saw the older water dragon's hate and could not hide her disgust." Damn it…I was so excited when I saw another one of my race alive despite all the odds! I wanted to believe! I wanted to see you for what water dragons were meant to be! But are past? Are history? They are just nothing but chains and we are choking on them! We might be the last of our kind but that's not what defines us! We are the people we help…the friends we make…the love we share…and the world we leave behind! That's who we are…who we can be! But only if we decide!"

Merga had her eye twitch before she hissed out," NO! Those who sided with the Earth Dragons over are kind must suffer! You have no idea how much we suffered in my lifetime…I will never stand to be a Nameless again! To be remembered as slaves who rebelled against their masters and lost? Or the monsters that killed the world?

What choice do I really have as the one final breath of the water dragons?! The water dragons will have justice even if it means this entire Bethal Kingdom must be devoured! I'll burn it all to get back at them from taking Cordelia from me! I WILL HAVE MY REVENGE! This time hatchling this only ends when the other side stops breathing! Blood Moon…Lilith!"

The Water dragon acting as a Askari for the Wakanda empire had her wings become tree like, and have flowers bloom to try and consume the younger humanoid water dragon. As Lilac dodged the shots Merge hissed out," Clean up the trash and we will all at last be where we deserve."

Raymond was about to try and help Lilac till sudden Gaston dived at him with his sword.

The blond haired Equalizer parried the strike before he glared at the blue skinned man, before his new opponent shrugged." Sorry, but you have to die now."

"Tsc." Raymond spat out in disgust." Are you even fighting for your free will or are you a puppet?"

"Your mistaken…this is the only way we can gain are freedom! Verguld is no ally of the Bethal Kingdom…why are you even opposing this?"

"Maybe because I still don't like seeing billions die and I can think ahead and see where this is all going!"

"There is no room for the weak but we will prove that the Vyrians are winners! Come, and behold what abject misery awaits those who reject the will of the winners!"

His eyes glowed before he became consumed with a set of knight like armor that had wings. He smashed Raymond into the wall before he let out an unhinged chuckle." If you refuse to reconsider…you merely reveal…who you truly are."

His sword glowed green before he unleashed a barrage of green energy sword waves. As Raymond dodged the projectiles Gaston snarled." Why do you renounce are generosity?"'

"Because someone who rants on about how kind they are while trying to kill me is not really sounding sane to me man!" Raymond threw back bitterly as he deflected one incoming projectile and clashed blades. This caused his target to get even louder." You fools…you miserable…feeble-minded FOOLS!"

He tried to knee Raymond, till J.J struck with his blade only for it the parried by the foe's new wing. The cyborg Samurai pressed his blade down harder while uttering," Your body is not responding to the Vought tech…stop this madness and submit to inspection!"

"Bah…it's all just to prove I am fit to survive! AND I AM WORTHY!"

Marlene saw the two sword men on her side struggle to keep up with the mad Vyrian's fury before she aimed her gun at the back of Gaston's head." Your worthy of being a big threat alright, that's why you have to, huh?" Before she could fire Elena yelled at her while throwing out a tense," Watch out!"

She pushed the blue haired woman out of the way as Velanj suddenly came down with his fist, shattering the entire area that Marlene stood. The two saw the large Vryian with bull like horns land with a thud before he sneered out," Sorry, we can't fall till we secure the salvation of are race!"

Marlene looked at Velanji before she winced." Wait, Lola, the Vyrian refugee told us about a man like you. Velanji right? She awaits your return so, please stop this."

The bulky man had bull like horns pop out of his head before he cracked his neck." We ventured beyond the point of no return. Many have perished and yet here I stand. I, who wish to see are planet Vyr free from the mercy of the bigger clans. Under are Sovereign…it shawl come to pass!

Where I to stray from this path here and now, then all who have died, all their sacrifices would have been for nothing! The Bethal Kingdom had its chance but they delivered nothing but broken promises to my people! Wakanda Forever will mean something for my race as long as it brings salvation to my kin as well! So shut up and fight! I'll show you what it means to fight for your beliefs!"

Marlene and Elena both fired energy blasts at their target, only for a red barrier around Vyrian to defuse them before he charged like a bull and punched them with a energy infused fist.

As a massive geyser of blue plasma energy roared up Tyson saw the two ladies run for there lives and saw Vyrian's desperation, before he glared at his brother." Is this what Wakanda 's been reduced to? Reducing others to slaves dangling salvation over their heads?"

"Bah…don't act like you suddenly found out how the Askari work!"

" Yah I know that the Askari are a caste we made to give worlds weaker then us a chance to work for us and still have perks...but treating them and there world's as if they are one step away from genocide is overkill!"

" Then you were blind to how the hierarchy of power always works! There is always the master and the servant, some are just better at hiding the reality of that relationship.

We refuse to take the measures those around us take and we will be at their mercy. How do you think are people gained glory in the first place? How do you think your ancestors got are wealth? Do you think they paid a fair price? Or did they take it, like they took everything else?"

"No…its more then that. Y'all sitting up their comfortable on the throne making others suffer. Must feel good. But there's so many that got enslaved by all the assholes out there. Wakanda has the tools to liberate them all but instead your joining in on the slaving!"

"Because otherwise we would be enslaved in turn! You think a futile gesture is worth losing everything?"

"You're just assuming we would lose! Yah it could cost something, but at least we won't lose are souls."

"It's a good thing you will never pollute the throne with your nonsense little brother…you would drag us all down with you! Do I have to crush the nonsense out of you or will you submit!?"

Tyson grunted as he heard more cracking sounds before he narrowed his eyes." Hell no. It was never this easy to get me to back down before bro, and this time I'm not messing around!"

His suit glowed purple before he unleashed a kinetic shock-wave powerful enough to knock N'Jadaka back. His brother was only knocked a few feet before he snarled and had lighting crackle around him and he charged at the Black Panther to unleash a Lariat.

However, the moment he touched the smaller man's body it flickered. Just as he realized he hit an after image, the real Tyson came down from above with a Rinzen Rasengan.

N'Jadaka widened his eyes before he caught the round projectile with his right hand and roared out," Don't mock me!"

He had his aura flare up, before he crushed the Rasengan. As lighting crackled around them Tyson winced and warped away again. N'Jadaka saw multiple after images of his brother running all around him before he grasped his right fist tightly." You run well little brother, but it just makes you a good mouse! A true king, makes his prey come to him! Atomic Collider!"

N'Jadaka randomly punched to the right, till suddenly his brother was drawn to him like a magnet. Tyson only had time to widen his eyes before his brother grasped him by the right leg and smashed him into the ground hard enough to shake the ground. As Tyson yelled out in pain he saw his own suit had sparks of lighting crack around his suit he winced." The hell kind of lighting spell is this? It's almost felt like I was magnetized! GUH!"

Tyson got kicked into the air before his brother unleashed a blow with his fist like it was a sledgehammer before the ruler of Wakanda snarled out," That's because I did magnetize you fool! You think my lighting magic is just for show?

I told you I was showing you mercy in the past foolish brother! If you're going to run around I'll just have my magnetize you and drag you to me! I'm not done with you yet! You're going to understand what a true king's fury is before this is done! Genesic Emerald Tager Buster!"

Tyson tried to take off, only for his arm to be drawn into his brother's arm vie magnetism. N'Jadaka had a wide grin before he got launched into the Embassy roof and got smashed through it.

Just as he saw the sky, his brother was suddenly above him. Mike's childhood friend got grasped by the neck before he was rocketed back into the Embassy and was hit with an impact that caused a quake. If it was not for his armor Tyson would have been a smear on the ground, and even then, Tyson was yelling in pain as his brother landed with a thud.

N'Jadaka spat on the ground before he looked at his brother with disgust." Did that wake you up yet M'Baku? You play dress up and run around as a cat but I lay down the wrath of a true king! You can't change a damn thing…so will you yield or is the rot from the fools so deep I have to beat it even harder out of you?"

Tyson saw Sonic, Shadow and the others fighting "Barney" in the distance, saw Lilac, Carol, Milly, and Neera Li evade Merga's attacks, and saw Raymond and the others fighting before he narrowed his eyes and staggered back up." You're joking right? That just got my blood flowing? You're hitting more than in are sparing match's bro, but this is far more important than business as usual! No way am I backing down to the likes of this!"

"DON'T TEST ME!" His brother roared out as he winded up his right arm and lighting crackled all around him." I gave you that armor and the rest of Wakanda's treasures…and it can only endure so much punishment! But too bad for you I'm not nearly done with the amount of wrath I unleash on enemies of Wakanda, even if it's my own brother! Even that armor can't withstand the" Strongest Spear!" Hell Stab…One-Finger Nukite!"

Tyson winced as he saw his brother have lighting crackle around him before he quickly stepped back." Damn it! Light Grenade!"

He quickly unleashed an energy blast, but his brother burst out like a burst of lighting before the man with the name of "Killmonger." Extended well beyond the finger in a lone point like a spear. As the spear sliced through the Light Grenade N'Jadaka widened his eyes." That's nothing for the strongest shield to cleave through! Huh?"

Suddenly his arm was grasped by Tyson's magically altered dreads as the Black Panther cried out," Lances of Banshari!"

As lances grasped the sides of his brother's arm Tyson chuckled bitterly," Did not need to stop you, just slow you down enough to set your ass up!"

"You think you can subdue me that easily? Your hands are tied M'Baku, I'll break your hand far quicker than you can tire me out!"

"Then I'll just need more hands!"

Tyson shocked his brother by having his aura flare up, till that aura formed into a claw and slashed N'Jadaka. He reeled back, but still got scratched across the face. Tyson saw his brother yell as blood flew out of his face before he jumped back." Still think I'm just messing around N'Jadaka!?"

His brother grasped his face before his eye twitched." You dare use the power of Bast…the God of Wakanda against its ruler?"

"Only because you forced my hand! I was trying to hold back because I really did not want to kill you man! But now you're acting like you lost your god damn mind so I have to do what's right for Wakanda, no matter what."

N'Jadaka had his eye twitch as he saw some of the Wakanda soldiers looking on in shock before he unleashed a chilling roar." You dare act like your king? I AM THE RULER OF WAKANDA! Don't feel smug that you held on because of the gifts I gave you M'Baku…because they are mine to take away! And you're not the only one with such gifts from Orisha!"

N'Jadaka roared before his energy erupted, and took the shape of a panther. A dark red, nearly black layer of magic energy enveloped him as his eyes became blank and hollow and his mouth became a monster like jaw. Tyson saw his brother grow taller before he braced himself." Damn it…you never fully mastered the Yang side of Bast?"

"Oh I'm in full control little brother, I just embrace the beast I am! You let the Auro Queen tame you so much that you forgot your own heritage…and that's why the pretender will be ripped to pieces by the one true king!"

"Maybe…but it still gave me a few tricks to stand out! And your one to talk when your dead set on being the Vought house Negro that whips the other slaves!"

"How dare you! I'll smash through all of your tricks! There can only be one true avatar of Bast M'Baku…and it will never be one of tainted blood!"

"Tainted!?" Tyson uttered with dismay." Just because my mom came from the Jabari Tribe it does not mean,GUH!"

A flash blinded him only for a second, but it was enough for his brother to suddenly smash him in the gut. N'Jadaka kept beating around his brother like a rag doll as he roared out," IT MEANS EVERYTHING! The legacy of how Man-Ape and his alliance with the White Gorilla cult still is a moment of shame for Wakanda!"

"Oh trust me I know. But even Man-Ape did not sell us out as hardcore as you are right now since this makes what that Ulysses Klaue did to Wakana look like nothing."

"Bah, just more proof that you been corrupted by the nonsense of others! I respected father's wish and treated you as a brother, but I knew that you would never be able to lead Wakanda. After all…all of this is because impure fools corrupted the universe in the first place. Only by the natural order setting things right will there be order to chaos.

The Bethal Kingdom and all of its fools that hid behind its unnatural ways thought they could keep the universe bound by its unnatural laws, but the jungle came back. This is my last warning brother…know your place and serve as my hand, or be ripped apart!"

Tysons saw his brother looked even more furious after transforming into his own Jinchūrik state and took a deep bitter breath," I knew you were bitter about a lot N'Jadaku…I just did not realize just how damn bitter you were. Is that your excuse for blaming me every time something went wrong? I sure as hell don't know if most in Wakanda would see things your way.

But even if they would not want me as king, it does not justify all this by a long shot. You may be the OG between us, but the whole point was that you needed me to be the ears outside are walls to see how things were! And I seen how things were man! And we have to be flexible to not get owned by the guys who want to make everyone in every universe their slave!"

"I seen enough." N'Jadaku bluntly retorted." I seen who will win and who will die. You're siding with those who are fated to be prey M'Baku."

"I don't see it that way…and if you refuse to even try and open your eyes then I'll have to force them open N'Jadaku! Idoua's Desgarrón!"

The ruler of Wakanda saw his brother form a massive energy claw before he cracked his neck." You mean to force my eyes open with the likes of that? Enough!

Magna Hell-Stab…Three-Finger Nukite!"

After transforming into his own Jinchūrik state, the older sibling unleashed a lighting thrust once more, only this time it became an enlarged blade of raw energy crackling with black lighting that was as large as the Idoua's Desgarrón energy claw. The two energy slashes clashed hard enough to leave a shock-wave, before Tyson saw his attack crack, and his brother burst past his side.

Blood came out of the Black Panther's right shoulder before he yelled and fell down. But before he could even fall, his brother grasped his face in a " Iron Claw" like stance and slammed Tyson's face into the ground. In his Jinchūrik state, his aura caused a burning sensation to the Black Panther.

N'Jadaku saw his brother scream and just snarled with rage." No attack you can throw out can take me down little brother! Will you submit or do I have to burn a scar into you?"

Tyson winced before grasping his fist tightly." I'll choose option C! You asked for it…Rinzen Rasengan: "Uzuhiko"!

Mike's childhood friend suddenly unleashed a quick spherical projectile into his brother's face. The attack caused the taller man to roar with outrage as his grip broke and his target slipped free. The ruler of Wakanda saw his brother flash step above him before he cracked his neck." Was that your best shot? It was nothing more then the sting of an insect brother! You seriously thought you could stop the Vought Clan if this is the best you could do?"

Tyson took a few labored breaths before he shrugged." A sting may not be enough to take down Homelander or the guys acting as his handlers…but if it sets up the ass kicking they deserve then that's enough for me."

"Spoken like a maggot's pride, not that of a king! All the more proof that you will never be able to lead Wakanda or anything! Enough…this ends here brother!"

He attempted to unleash a Guillotine Drop kick on Tyson, only to see the Black Panther was gone by the time he let down the blow. He saw the ground start to spin before his eye twitched." Now you're resorting to cheap illusions M'Baku? Pathetic! The likes of After Images can't save you as long as you're charged with my magnetism! I'll, huh?"

He saw the room spin again, and suddenly Tyson smashed him in the face. As he was knocked back N'Jadaka shook his head, and saw things were still spinning before he grit his teeth." No…illusions should not be able to work on me while I'm like this!"

"Maybe but this is no illusion bro." Tyson uttered as he got back on the ground." I had to think of one of my more creative spells to get my message through your thick skull! You thought that my Rasengan: "Uzuhiko" was supposed to have more fire power so you missed the point entirely and took the bait like a chump.

Once the user comes in physical contact with the enemy, I can forcibly infuse the rotating mana into my opponent, essentially striking them with the rotation of the entire planet itself. Although the initial attack is lacking in raw power, the damage is more than just a sting eh?

And it's left yah in a constant state of vertigo until I deactivate the spell or until the entire damn planet stops spinning. Just felt it was fitting in this being like a biting counterattack from the very planet you're trying to wreck bro. I won't deny how strong you are, but still think you can keep this up when you can't even see straight?"

N'Jadaka realized his brother was not lying as he was feeling a problem focusing the eyes, dizziness, ringing in the ears, difficulty with his limbs, and more from the effects of the Rasengan: "Uzuhiko" he roared with primal fury." Think you can make a fool out of me M'Baku? This cheap trick…can't bring down a king! If you're hampering my movements, I'll just do something that does not require any movement! Storm Release: Laser Circus!"

While staggering around, first, a halo of bright energy spread around the user's hands, then it encircled his's hand and from that, the beams were shot out towards the enemy. Tyson evaded the projectiles coming his head, then saw Trip and a Dora Milaje near her get blasted as one of the lasers exploded near her before he winced." Yo cool it or you're just going to blow up your own crew!"

"They knew the stakes of today, the cost of victory is steep but for the sake of Wakanda Forever it must be done."

"You really don't get it…so you got to wake up!"

Tyson dodged some of the lasers blasting out and threw a kunai at his brother. It bounced off of him and stuck to the ground, causing N'Jadaka to snarl with disgust, only for the Black Panther to throw a few more. While they all bounced off their target, as they all hit the ground they formed a magical pentagram that started to zap the ruler of Wakanda from his energy.

Tyson saw his brother glare at him before he shrugged." Reverbium as you know does the reverse of Vibranium in rather than absorbing vibrational and kinetic energy, it does the opposite and pushes it away. But I made a few tweaks to screw with someone's mana!

N'Jadaka had veins form on his forehead before roaring out," No…I am the one known as the Killmonger, as the lor pelek of Wakanda! I don't go down so easy! I'll just blow it all away! Fist of the Beast King! "

Tyson saw his brother unleash a massive energy sphere shaped like the head of a lion right in the air before he narrowed his eyes." No…I'm making you open your eyes " King"! Magnet Release Rasenshuriken!"

Tyson unleashed a shuriken-shaped variant of the Rasengan with sand surging across it. He smashed it into his brother, before it was powerful enough to cut his chest and make him be smashed into the ground.

The Black Panther saw N'Jadaka struggle to get up before he sighed." A true king of the jungle knows that even a small sting can be fatal if you don't pay attention. Just wake up before you drag all of Wakanda with you N'Jadaka!"

"You still mock me? You will drag us down with your weak mockery of what are nation stands for!"

"Damn it…you got to remember what Wakanda is supposed to be before you guarantee it's gone forever! You keep going on and on about how all this tough love crap is needed because times are tough and Wakanda has to be hardcore to survive. But times have always been tough for Wakanda bro!

We always had to fight for are freedom, but while are folks had to be tough, all the times when we were truly strong was when the leaders knew how to be tough without becoming assholes! Leaders from Bashenga, T'Challa, and more knew how to defend the nation without losing their souls! Beware the stranger, only attack in self defense, that is suppose to be are way. I know how hard you want to keep things together bro, but this is not how we do things!"

N'Jadaka was motionless for a while, and for a moment Tyson wondered if he at last got through to his brother, till the king of Wakanda laughed with a colder tone that sent a chill down Tyson's spine.

The bald man then looked back up before hissing out," Your right M'Baku…that might have been what the likes of Bashenga, T'Challa, and others of your lineage might have done in the past…but its not what would be done by mine! The ethic of self-defense evoles when enemies are all over, and if it evolves to a ethic of conquest then so be it! I can't deny I'm almost impressed with how stubborn you are. But this farce ends now. I admit I did not think I would have to use this on you and was saving it for that spawn of the devil or the legendary Enji super elite…but if you want me to show you my true wrath…so be it!"

Tyson suddenly saw his brother shattered the diamond necklace he had on his neck before something fell out. For a few moments the Black Panther raised an eyebrow as he uttered," Huh? The hell? You trying to take the Heart-Shaped Herb to get the power of the Black Panther too? That's crazy bro! Wait, huh?"

As N'Jadaka picked the object up he saw it was not the source of the Black Panther's power like he thought, but a blood red stone that almost was shaped like a pear that had an eye on it and was beating like it was a heart.

The ruler of Wakanda looked at it with longing before uttering," No…this is not from Wakanda…but from my true bloodline! I was held back by being blind to what I am, but I'm no longer blind! Let me show you my true destiny M'Baku thanks to this gift from my true ancestor, the Secret Stone of Darkness!"

Suddenly the man known as Killmonger 's muscles grew to twice their size till a tornado of blood red energy consumed him. When the light faded, N'Jadaku had demon horns on his head, his eyes were now glowing with blood red energy, and his chest seemed to have warped into a living volcano as his aura became that of a red and purple demonic inferno that raged across his shoulders and legs.

Tyson, and everyone else in the room looked at the now demonic ruler form Wakanda before the Black Panther steeled himself." The hell did you just jack yourself with brother? This is from Bast? Or did you fuse with one of those Originators!?"

"No…this…this is Secret Stone is from Hyrule little brother.. They have the ability to amplify their users' inherent powers, and this proves my true bloodline…it proves that I am an ancestor, however distant, of Ganondorf Dragmire! This…this is my redemption!"

Tyson blinked a few times before he eyed his brother carefully as the man before him looked like a raw being of malice and hatred itself." Ganondorf? Wait…the same Ganondorf that was one of Mike's dad's old enemies that came from Hyrule? Your hardcore tripping man and this joke's not funny! You believe anything Homelander says while drunk? Wait…Mike said that Sieg could alter memories…is that it?"

"This is no farce M'Baku! I did not believe just any words from the likes of Homelander, I saw the truth from my ancestor Ganondorf himself! At least, one from another universe. He easily got the Djalia, the plane of Wakandan memory to show my link to my true ancestor! After Heaven was broken by Doug Fitter, the Gerudo tribe had members take refuge in Wakanda.

Someone Ganondorf " had sexual relations" with during the cosmic war came and bore his child with those of the Wakanda royalty. This shame was buried, but I am a result of that! At last I know the truth, so I can realize my true destiny!"

"The hell you on about man? Ganondorf was just that jackass called the King of Evil right? You never met the punk you own him jack! And on top of all that from what I remember he was just some sore loser that came back from the dead only to get his sorry ass owned by that Link dude again and again till Mike's dad helped take him out for good in the Cosmic War!"

" Only because the corrupt conspired to deny him his rightful place, like my own destiny! Piff…being called a " King of evil" is just a childish judgment of naïve fools. Such king's don't make the darkness, he only uses it. His inner darkness is the reflection of the darkness of his world; and it darkens the world around him.

Internal and external darkness create each other: that is underlying unity of the circle of life. You see "Brother" I am doing what is best for Wakanda, for the true people of Wakanda, my tribe! The Ganondorf from the other universe told me how things were a bit different for him than the history of the one I'm related to.

To him, Hyrule was ruled by a bunch of ugly goat people called the Zonai, lead by a King Rauru. This Rauru "took for granted the godlike power" and lost his prize to a superior hunter. But the universe conspired to wrong who was the natural leader. Thus we will both correct what we have been denied!

Your part of the other tribes that weighed me down…and Wakanda must be purged to be a part of the new order. WE will be Wakanda evolved!"

Tyson saw the passion in his brother's eyes before he resisted the urge to vomit before he steeled himself." No, N'Jadaka…you are not Wakanda…not yet. You're a slave driver. After all of this, you still know nothing of glory or honor, not the real ones!"

"The truth is what the winners say it is M'Baku! This is destiny, its Wakanda unbound from the mistakes of past corruption. Attack only when attacked, hunt only the hunter, prey solely on the predator, that is what we were taught, is it not? But it's the ideology of losers! Maybe those who only stayed on Wakanda soil could see such delusions as reality but the truth is that we are all hunters and life itself is a predator!

Being surrounded by people who were too craven to have the thrill of the hunt, I realized it would weigh us down and condemn us to be the prey! So, I'm grateful that my ancestor from another universe came to show me how things should be! Because now I can be unshackled by the demands of fools and be what I'm supposed to be!"

Tyson saw his brother was serious before he grit his teeth." You mean a dumbass? I don't know if this is the real you being honest or whoever brain-jacked you but whoever is saying this, has no right to be leading Wakanda.

I know you were bitter about having to rule after ma died…but you blamed are people for not being strong enough? With how much things have been hell for the whole universe the fact that we are holding together at all compared to all the worlds that lost their minds is a miracle, and now you want to ruin that!

The reason Wakanda lasted for so long is because we are a clan that knew not to push our luck! And now you want to push your luck like a dumbass!"

"Like I said…the situation this is an evolved Wakanda…not bound by asinine delusions. But first…it must be purged of all weakness. It is a shame M'Baku…you are my brother but the corruption is to deep for me to stand."

Tyson took a heavy breath before he had his aura flare up." Funny…I was about to say the same thing. I wanted so hard to think you were just trying to play all the sides but clear as day you were the one being played. Damn it…you did not even ask me about any of this?"

"What's to ask? You always were to give me details but I am the sole decider of Wakanda!"

"Well…for Wakanda Forever to mean something that has to change. I'm sorry I did not see what you are now Killmonger…but it ends now! R"

To his shock in an instant N'Jadaka had his aura explode, before it took the shape of a demonic dragon head. The Black Panther was fast enough to strike the sudden attack, till the gloom like substance suddenly devoured his right arm.

Tyson cried out in pain as he realized it was like acid was devouring him before in a flash his brother was in front of his face, and punched him so hard that his helmet shattered.

As Mike's friend was smashed into the ground he coughed up blood, saw his brother's hate and chuckled bitterly." You know I was feeling conflicted about this for a bit…but its clear that the brother I knew is dead, and all that's left is a mockery of Wakanda! Rinzin Planetary Rasengan!"

The Black Panther unleashed all the power he had left, and created a Big Rasengan in one of his hands, which was then surrounded by three regular-sized Rasengan, in a similar manner to moons around a planet. He hurled it at his brother, who had his aura again form hands of dark liquid to catch the combo projectile.

He saw the projectiles combined force and winced as he extended his hand before he realized he was being pushed back. He glared at his brother before the madness in his eyes grew." You do have passion M'Baku…but it's the passion of a commoner! That's no match for the passion of a true king, and his subjects! Citizens of Wakanda…do your final duty for your ruler! Calamity Chains!"

N'Jadaka suddenly had his aura spit out chains of raw red energy that lashed out across the room. All this time Raymond and J.J had been fighting Gaston, and the blond man had just evaded a frantic sword slash from his enemy before hitting him with his Boulder Crush slash. The Equalizer saw the tentacle heading for his way and winced before jumping out of the way, leaving Gaston to get hit in its place.

The winged swordsmen yelled out in pain as his eyes widened." How…could this be? Colonel Velanji…Loa! I can't see her…I can't hear anything or see anything! Lola…your face is gone to me. If…there was another way to salvation…I forgot it along the way. AHH!"

He was then violently ripped in the path of Tyson's attack.

At the same time Elena evaded Velanj's wound up punch and hit his barrier with her Fists Of Fury attack, cracking the barrier to allow Marielle to fire her Predator Ray to blast a hole through it, and blast a chuck of her target's right shoulder away. As Velanji roared in pain Elena noticed the tentacle coming her way and got her and Marielle out of its path before it consumed the soldier from Vyr instead. His eyes widened before a bitter grin formed." With this…at last I…AHH!"

As he to was dragged away, at the same time Carol had just hit Merga in the face before the humanoid water dragon's eyes widened." Not yet! It's not over yet! Your suffering will be a masterpiece! Blood, huh?"

As she missed her target's, she saw the tentacle come for her and saw her wing get grasped. She winced before uttering," My lord, don't do this! This must be a mistake!"

N'Jadaka glared at her with a look of madness before uttering," No…it's a mistake for you doubting the best way for me to use my subjects! I'm letting you die with honor!"

Liaic saw Merga was about to be hurled into the Rinzin Planetary Rasengan and on instinct slashed the older Water Dragon's wing glider to free her. Merga saw Gaston and Velanji scream as they were dragged to collide into the incoming energy blast and get vaporized before she looked at the woman who was her enemy." Why…why did you save me?"

"Because…we are the last of are kind. But even so that's not all that define us!" Lilac uttered somberly. "We are the people we help…the friends we make…the love we share…and what we leave behind! That's who we are…who we CAN be! But only we can decide!"

Before Merga could even argue the person she served who just tried to use her as a sacrifice roared before having another energy chain burst out through the shattered Rinzin Planetary Rasengan, and hit Tyson in the chest. As the Black Panther coughed up blood his brother burst at him to smash him into the ground.

As the chain glowed the man transformed by the Power Stone looked at his brother cruelly." See what happens when one who fights like a hero fights against one who fights like a survivor? Today is proving that as you would put it," Virtue is for suckers and vice is the key to victory.

You tried hard to serve Wakanda brother but your services are no longer required for the Wakanda I will build from the ashes of this universe! But before I relive you of your duty, I'm taking back what I gave you so that all of Bast will be back with the only true master of Wakanda!"

N'Jadaka pulled on his chain, causing Tyson to yell in pain as the shock-wave of energy rocked the entire embassy.

All this time Sonic and the hero's from Mobius had been distracted by the purple dragon that while lacking in personality, was proving to be quite the pain. Sonic saw his comrades take down all the energy meteors that" Barney" had fired on them before he wagged his finger." You can huff and puff dude but you're never blowing us down! Infinite Mass Spin Dash!"

Barney fired a massive golden energy beam, but Sonic burst out at full speed, cleaving through the energy blast, and blasting through the purple dragon's mouth. As sparks of energy roared out of the dragon and it exploded Sonic chuckled as he saw Shadow had defeated "BJ" the Crimson Dragon at the same time." I'll play with you some other time punk, I got places to be! Alright, have any, huh?"

The golden hedgehog saw a pillar of energy erupt out of the Wakanda Embassy before he winced." So this was just a distraction eh? Got to be faster…things are falling apart as it is!"

As he and the others moved at full speed, things already were heading back in a dire direction as despite Tyson's efforts, N'Jadaka succeeded in ripping the yin half of Bast's sprit out, and consumed it. Tyson could only yell in pain as his brother's aura surged even greater in intensity. N'Jadaka saw his brother's shock before he cracked his neck." At last…the mistake has been corrected.

Even if it was our ancestors who wronged me M'Baku…in the end you are Wakanda, you are your ancestors sins…you are memory incarnate! Now is the time of a new king, and not just a king, but a god! Ganondorf was a king of evil, and I will be a God of evil. Such a being, will never be the prey!"

He went to move before Tyson staggered forward and grasped his necklace. N'Jadaka saw his brother's broken haunted look before he winced. For a moment he almost looked remorseful before he put his hand on Tyson's head." Just be grateful that even after betraying me so grateful, I'll let you die as a warrior. If you really thought that these Bethal sheep were your kin more then me…then die with your people."

He pushed his brother off him, and in the process Tyson ripped his brother's necklace off of him. As he fell down the hole N'Jadaka looked at the Wakandan's still standing in the area." The challenge to the throne is finished. Is this your would be king? Huh? Is this your king? The Black Panther, who's supposed to lead you into the future!? He's supposed to protect you! No, I'm your king."

He saw everyone quickly bow before he turned around and looked up in the sky." My job is done here…I did my part so that these Bethal sheep would cut their own throats, the others will clean up the mess they were eager to start.

All these weak, peace-loving cowards running rampant will get devoured as they should be. Astor…beam me up and have us go back to Mekacity. It's time to watch the new order be born from Arasaka Tower."

His servant did as commanded and the mad leader of Wakanda, and those still to afraid to betray him were warped out of the embassy. Sonic, Shadow and the rest flew in just a few seconds later before Shadow looked around." What the hell happened here?"

Amy ran up to Tyson before she looked at her friends with horror." You got to do something Sonic! Tyson's brother ate something, said he is the son of that creepy Ganondorf guy your friend you and Link fought during that time Xehamaru invaded here, ripped something out of him and then left!"

Merga realized she was left behind before she winced." N'Jadaka…you…you really only see yourself as Wakanda…damn you!"

Sonic saw Tyson was not moving before he winced." Hey, does anyone have one of those potions or gels on them or know white magic? Looks like this guy needs first aide yesterday!"

Merga saw Tyson's blank face and winced." It's useless now. If you're not aware, when a Jinchūrik gets the beast ripped out of them, they die. Its virtually irreversible unless stopped by the most powerful kinds of magic."

Knuckles punched the ground with frustration as he looked at Tyson." Well, we defy what's supposed to be impossible just about every day! Maybe the Master Emerald can help?"

A light in the sky caused everyone's attention to get diverted, and as Shadow saw the pillar of energy around the Angel Halo get bigger he grit his teeth." Don't want to give up on him but we might have to make some hard choices if we are going to save anyone Sonic. Things…do seem to be falling apart in a worst way then ever before."

Sonic winced before he grasped his fist tighter." Then we got to move faster than ever before guys! It…it may be to late to save Mobius but I'm not letting this world be ruined to! There…has to be something left to do."

As the group tried to figure out just what to do, they failed to realize that the golden necklace Tyson grasped from his brother fell onto his neck, and fell on the necklace he had on his own body.

The two gold fragments suddenly started to glow, before they merged together. Suddenly on Tyson's right hand, three golden triangle connected together appeared on it.

As it started to glow, everyone around him was too distracted to notice, but Tyson sure noticed as he suddenly saw his surroundings had changed. He blinked and gasped before he realized that the sky above him was pitch black. He looked around and saw he was alone, and was standing on a cracked blue platform that had the same golden triangle symbol as the one on his hand.

He looked around before he tensed up and stood up at seeing there was nothing around him." The hell is this? Wait…is this hell? Did bro…really cast me to whatever the Vought Clan turned hell to?"

"You're not in hell yet…descendant of hero's…but we both might be going to hell quickly if we don't work together."

Tyson swerved around and saw that a woman with many wounds on her body had appeared out of the golden triangle. She had long red fiery hair down to her back, hair, tan skin and had a tattered pink body suit over her body with golden rings on her arms and neck. Tyson looked around before he winced." What is going on? Did my brother kill you to?"

"Almost…and he will kill me if you shut up and just do what I say! Ugh, look I been locked up for a long time, and my sisters are dead so this might be are last chance. Your not dead, you're in the Temple of Light's Chamber of Sages in the Sacred Realm of Hyrule…what's left of it at least. I'm Din… one of the three omnipotent Golden Goddesses who created the land of Hyrule along with the angel Hylia. My essence, as well as the essence of my sisters Nayru and Farore, is the source of the Golden Power within the sacred relic, the Triforce. You, you managed to merge together the fragments of the Triforce of Power, enough for me to form a connection."

Tyson blinked before he looked at his hand." The Triforce? I heard that was some thing one of Mike's buds Link used in the Cosmic War but I heard it got destroyed when heaven broke."

"It did! But the Tri-Force has been broken before only to be able to be put back together! You, you have the Tri-Force of Power in you right now on your neck idiot!"

Tyson was shocked as he looked at the fact that his necklace had combined with his brother's necklace when it fell on him and looked at his hand." Wait…Wakanda took the remains of the Tri-Force without even knowing it!"

"Oh great…I'm stuck with idiots who did not even know what they took! Still…guess people keeping it hidden is better then someone who would misuse it. Well, at least you're just about the best person I could have hoped that had Gerudo blood in them. Fine, you'll due."

"Huh? For what?"

"To be the host of the Tri-Force…of what's left of it! My sisters…the sages…Hyrule itself…its all been taken. You, you're the only chance that the Legend of Zelda, of Hyrule, and so much more lives on. If you're strong enough to handle it that is. You better get your soul ready…adapt or we both die dude!"

Tyson looked around before he grasped his fist tightly." If this means I can live through Bast getting ripped out of me then sure let's go! N'Jadaka…your sure as hell not getting the last word on how Wakanda, and the rest of the universe is going to be!"

With that Din's grin widened before she became a pillar of light that headed into Tyson, before a flash of light burst out to decide the fate of two cultures, if not more.

Authors Notes: Got another intense chapter so lets get started.

Trip the dragon and the Black Dragon are both from Sonic Superstars, the true last second final boss. I just came up with the name Barney, but well, it's a purple stupid monster and I raged against how broken the boss was so it felt…fitting. Damn it Sega I know Sonic Frontiers final boss was a joke but this and Trip's final boss was WAY overcompensating so, needed to vent even if it was a short fight here lol.

The Crimson Dragon is from Megaman Starforce 3. BJ is the name I gave it to go with the Barney theme I suppose.

Vadic is from the third season of Star Trek Picard.

Alt Cunningham, and the Blackwall is from Cyberpunk.

The Rasengan: "Uzuhiko" is from Boruto Two Blue Vortex

I gave N'Jadaka some moves from Tager from Blazblue since I felt it fit well enough lol. His " transformed state" is my attempt at a cross of the Ganon that showed up in Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity and Ganondorf's human demon form in Tears of the Kingdom.

Din is of course from the Legend Of Zelda, the deity from Oracle of Time with her personality based on the Oracle of Seasons reincarnation. I'll just say…Tyson's beef with his brother is not quite done yet as we have a clash between the Tri-Force and the Secrect Stone"...I know you don't want to do just the same thing again and again Nintendo but come on, at least try something a little less generic when thinking of new stuff.

Well, I'll just say the rematch might have to wait a tad longer as next time we are settling some of the other grudge match's I started first. Hope you liked how things unfolded enough to leave a review, thanks as always for the reviews so far and till next time everyone.
