Chapter 19
March 13th, X17
"We need time to heal." Anjali Ghanthasala said while tossing a bag of ice to Tony Strak.
The ship have not sail yet. Stigma is too tired to do anything. They were not prepared to see what strength Putri Nivenda's friends have.
Meanwhile Manu Bahuguna and his students and brother decides to take the other children back to Tibet where Stigma agreed to return their once they receives the Diamond of the Seas.
Stigma was decided what occurs that Vanya Polishetty attack them so fearful, that it will leave scar in the future.
"But we do not have time." Nebula remained them.
"How long does everything need to put in place?" Steve Rogers asked.
"These Beyblade will be ready in two days." Kyojyu said.
"Our physical pain will take two days." Rocket Raccoon said.
"And to reach Kabul takes less than a day." Gamora added.
Nobody in Stigma was reached for another fight.
Erza asked, "Still no answer from Hiromi, Strange?"
Strange nodded with a no.
"I hope she is okay." Nagini said.
Daichi Sumeragi had bandage on his head wrapped. He was trying to be awake wondering about how he was so weak.
Stella was sitting in another room rethinking what Vanya said to her. She was wondering if it is true that Putri Nivenda did not want to come back. If so, why?
Takao Kinomiya noticed Stella in her own world.
"Are you okay?" He asked.
"I am fine. You were the one that was pretty beaten up." Stella said when Umbreon purred on her.
Takao sat opposite side to her.
"You know what she said is due to her angry. I am pretty sure that Putri did not mean anything what she said."
"I do not think she is wrong. Putri changed after the attack. She stopped talking to any of us. She became a rebel to everything."
"Do not worried about that. It was in the past. I know that she have changed. Sometimes, people changes when they are separate and realized the truth."
Stella looked at him. She knew that it is not true. Something else, was going on. But it seems that her brother is quietly ignoring it.
"Why would you think that?"
"Maybe because, I ignored her feeling, when I was young. At that time, I was not thinking straight. But now, I also do not know what she is thinking after all these years. She may still resent me."
Takao looked outside the caves. He never been so unsure in his life.
Suddenly, the ship started to buzz. Takao and Stella went to the deck where in the screen there was the Celestial King looking at the Capital City of the Hind Kush demon while everyone is running away from him.
"Hiromi?" Takao asked.
"It seems she would not give us a rest." Steve Rogers said with a smile.
"Suit up."
The ship took off to that place.
Chapter 20
March 14th, X17
"Open up the gate." The Celestial King roar.
The demon army stood there. They were ready to attack the giant king who was about 22ft tall. On his shoulder was Hiromi Tachibana who was so tiny that she could not been seen. She was wondering why Stigma have not arrived yet.
Then she heard something.
"Jinshi – Celestial King. Please stop what are you doing and leave."
There was Ayukta – Hind Kush Demon - standing there with a microphone. The Hind Kush demon stood there protecting the entrance of the palace.
"I understand if Achonogia know my name. But I never either of you before demons." The king erupted.
Adithya – the leader of the Hind Kush demons - snatch the microphone and started to yell. "We will never let you take DVR and the Chaos Queen as they are trouble to us demon."
'DVR?' Hiromi wondered. 'Is that Putri? And who is the Chaos Queen?'
"I never told why I am here." The king started to laugh. "But now I know what to get – other than your dead."
The army guard started to roar. They seems to storm out of the palace in full speed.
Everyone look like they are going to started to fight.
But the main gate of the city blast off like anything. There was Stigma standing slowly come towards the city. Suman started to throw a sun blast as he was coming closer, but Nashe blast him out with her fire fist.
"You came." Hiromi screamed.
Tony Stark looked at her. "Well, you cannot do it alone can you?"
"What is the meaning of this?" Adithya hissed.
"Well, you should know." Anjali Ghanthasala said. "Capturing the Queen of Madhu is a felony and death is the way to go."
The Celestial King smiled. "Then let me lead the way." He pick his sword and slams the palace into two halves. After a big smoke screen and a small earthquake, there were two powerful magic auras coming in the hole towards the basement.
"Jinshi!" Adithya screamed.
Stigma looked confused.
"Good luck!" He started to disappear while Hiromi started to descent from him. Gamora threw a bag with made-in equipment like a gun and ropes to help her.
"Already! You know what to do." Steven Rogers said as ran towards the demon army.
Stigma ran to the Hind Kush Demons where each one of them exhibits their power to fear them
"Magical human would not scare me." Adithya started to roar as the demon army charged at the group.
Stella Kinomiya, Groot, Rocket Racoon, and Mantis fell into the hole to find what was the aura about.
The deadline is before the sun started to come up.
As the group enter the end of the hole, there was nobody in the area, just a big door. As Stella opened it, there was a huge ball of aura holding familiar and unfamiliar faces.
"Who are you?" A voice across the room said.
It was Padma Iyer.
Chapter 21
Stella Kinomiya looked at Padma Iyer who was wearing simple cloths and nothing more. She then looked at the magic ball. It started to glow like anything.
"Putri?" She asked softly.
The magic ball stopped glowing.
Stella realized one of the auras, and not another one.
Padma Iyer started to shake. "I am sorry." She said in a very scared voice. Stella did not look at the girl, instead wondering what happen.
"Putri. It is me Stella" she said. "I was worried about you, and you are doing fine. It is just that Uncle Shizhe'e said that you did not want to come, because you are angry. But I could not stand it after what happen. I mean that I was scared, and so is Anna, and others. That is why we came. To take you home."
The magic ball did not respond.
Stella continued. "I know that who do not want to go home, but you cannot stay here. Everyone needs you. Mainly the people. Ever since they heard that you do not want to come and what occur in the demon world, there have been riots everywhere. So, to stop the fights it is natural to come back. Well, that is one part of it."
"Everyone misses you. They are constantly worried about you. We have to act like nothing has happen, but it hurts that, the one person who saved me and other are trapped in this demon world like a mouse. …"
The magic ball started to glow. It suddenly pop. There was Putri Nivenda, Pickachu, her other Pokémon in their Poké-balls, Lavanya Sri and her Poké-balls falling down.
Groot was able to catch them all.
Sri was still asleep, but Putri and Pickachu slowly opened their eyes. Umbreon licked Pickachu on its cheek.
"Putri?" Putri looked up at Stella, Mantis, Rocket Racoon, and Groot – all smiling at her.
"Stella?" She mumble. "Am I dreaming again?"
Rocket slapped her.
"Ouch." She put her hand on her cheek. "Okay. This is real. And others." She looked at Lavanya Sri sleeping on Groot arms.
"You came out. How?" Padma Iyer asked.
"Padma. Did you still learn no lesson?" Putri sat down. Her body is weak. "Death is something you should move on from."
"But…"
"But nothing." Putri slowly started to get up with the help of Stella and in her arms is Pickachu.
"You made your decision when you lied to me. Padma, you may not have demon blood, but you are a demon. Anyway, it is time to move on."
"And what about you?" Padma asked.
"We will see." Putri said as she walked out with the group.
The outside voices echo like anything. Stigma were not able to defeat demons despite having the opportunity.
Hulk was swing on the demon army. Erza whirlwind silver swords and slowly defeating the demon's army.
Peter Parker asked in their common intercom, "Is there a way to even destroyed the demons?"
"Well, do you have an idea?" Scott Lang asked.
"There is maybe five or six ways." Thor Ragrock asked.
"There is one way." A voice suddenly enter the intercom. It shift the air. Nobody moved for a second.
As Stella's group come out, the voice said, "You slid their neck in a single go and if they continued to move kept slashing them like anything, so that they do not regenerate."
Rocket shrugged at the situation. "Look who we found." He said holding the Poké-balls. Groot was carrying a sleeping, Lavanya Sri. Mantis and Stella helping Putri to stand.
"Putri." Takao Kinomiya mummer.
Chapter 22
Now that Stigma knew what to do, they did not hesitate.
Hulk and Ezra stormed the army attacking their neck. Peter Parker was using the city's architecture to move himself into the think airborne demon's army. He fired a volley of sharp electric webbing, that shattering the demons to paralyzed where it was easy for Erza cut their throat off.
Adithya hissed again. "How could they escape?"
Takao Kinomiya looked at him. "You are a fool. Do not underestimate the bond that we have."
Takao nodded and Daichi Sumeragi where both their Beyblade – Dragoon and Strata Dragoon - made a tornado so heavy that Aditya could not held his ground. Adithya summoned a hellfire, but the vacuum of the Beyblade blew his flame. And Anjali Ghanthasala took her hammer and crushed Aditya's head which led the storm breaking his head off. Aditya turns into ashes by the wind.
Saranya strong strength was a match to Nagini's mind reading and Natasha Romanoff spies training was paying off. Nagini used her poison-dragon breathe which had an effect on Saranya and with one blink Natasha cut Saranya's throat. The demoness shrieked as her physical form began to fray like burnt lace.
Vandan's Steel amour was not enough to handle Teepa's ice breathe which was shivering him out of the amour. Sam Rhodes and Clint Barton drew Vandan with arrows which was actually lasers that burnt the amour. Clint took the final blow by cutting Vandan neck off and James immediately destroyer his amour while Teepa froze the demon with ice. The heavy demon turned into ashes.
Suman and Nashe fought with their fire. Kai Himawari took a ring of Dranzer flames where Nashe swollen it and then burst it like anything. Suman, for first time, was feeling the heat. Scott Lang grew to full size and took a sword and slide Suman neck while Nashe and Kai burned the remaining part of the body.
Keyur stood there holding two maces as Steve Rogers took out his shield and toss it on Keyur where Tony Stark came behind and threw a bunch of missiles on him while Thor Ragrock descend a lighting on the demon. Keyur screaming as the lighting paralyzed him and the missiles burst his back off with the shield slide his throat like anything.
Vidhaathri floated in the air. She was turning the Beyblade into dust slowly by Max Tate's Draciel and Rei Kon's Driger slashed through the air making her to fall down. Sam Wilson divided the terminal velocity of the demoness's aura slicing down the power of a crush which landed her neck. The demoness screamed turn into ashes.
Ayukta sprinted her demonic voice into action. Wanda Maximoff and Stephen Strange had a choice - close their ears or attacks for the sidelines. Wanda's magic stitched her mouth shut. Strange did not hesitate to open a portal near Ayukta. He rotate his hands to form the Images of Ikonn on the demoness neck where it then turn into demoness turning into ashes.
Mahadevan was large enough for the entire demon army to fear him. Peter Quill and Drax the Destroyer combine their attack and make him knell down faster than Mahadevan could process it. Drax cut his neck faster than Peter firing his quad-blaster so that the demon could die easily.
Harsha wasted no time manipulating metal from Gajjel's arm. But the Iron Dragon slayer show no mercy in letting that happen. Hiromi Tachibana who was exhausted in travelling from a different world used her gun and Kyojyu distracted Harsha with his Beyblade which let Harsha to get distract and Gajjel to slide his neck with his iron blade.
Malavika's poison was not affect Nebula and her thrones was not affecting Gamora. Gamora nodded once at Nebula. Angrier at what is happening, Malavika started to ramp up the attack, but the girls came closer to the demoness and shock her with Nebula's electric batons which results in Nebula cutting the head of.
All of the ten demons were killed at the same time. The demon army vanish as soon as the sun came up.
Rocket Racoon and Mantis looked at the sun.
"It seems that we defeat a major demon tribe." Rocket said.
"Look at the golden wall. It broken." Mantis pointed at the large wall which lost it golden glow.
Groot put a sleeping Lavanya Sri back into the ship.
Stella Kinomiya with Umbreon and Putri Nivenda with Pickachu walked towards Takao where he noticed the two girls.
There was a long pause between the finally reunited cousins.
Chapter 23
March 15th, X17
Stigma's ship landed in an unknown place in Tibet where Manu Bahuguna's and his students are there. There were cheers upon arriving there which was full of supported people.
Manu congratulate Stigma for defeating the Hind Kush demons for good. "What is your next step?" He asked.
"To bring to Diamonds of the Seas home." Steve Rogers said proudly.
Inside the ship, Putri Nivenda was not having any of this.
"Me and my dad talked about this. I am not returning home." Putri yelled at Takao Kinomiya.
Takao did not even hesitate. "There is no way that you agree to this. According to uncle, you promised to return home. I had to come with Stigma because you were unconscious."
Puti wanted to scream at him, but Stella Kinomiya stopped her trying to mediate. Tony Strak stepped and break the cousins apart.
"Look. I do not know why you think it is a bad idea but it not. We are trying to protect you." Tony said in a voice which was sharp.
Putri stepped forward and said slowly. "Sometimes people do not deserve to know the truth. Or it will break them."
There was silence for sometimes.
Tony walked out of the room with Takao and Stella, while Putri sat down with her hand on her head.
Takao went to Hiromi Tachibana and asked her to do something.
As the Stigma ship landed in Tibet to pick everyone, Vanya Polishetty and Putri's other friends was relived seeing Putri but worried about Lavanya Sri not waking up. They decided to talk about the upcoming future once they reached to the White Palace or when Lavanya Sri is awake.
Vanya Polishetty looked outside the cold mountain. She knew that she is bound to have a new life – but what kind of life – is unknown to her.
As the ship started to set sail, everyone noticed the crumbs to the wall and their new locations which is now touching only India, Pakistan and Bangladesh only.
Vanya noticed Hiromi coming towards her.
"Who are you?" Vanya asked Hiromi.
"I was in nether world when you met my friends and have a fight. I am a Celestial Witch"
"And what do you want?"
"I want to know what happen that caused the war and why did Putri did not want to return home."
Vanya looked at Hiromi with surprised.
"Okay. I will tell you. But do not except any good result." Vanya said.
Vanya told Hiromi everything. Since the first time she met Putri who was named Rani at that time to the last time she seen her, where she was named DVR.
What could have between the last time when Vanya and Putri was lasted seen in Kathmandu to now, as the final journey start in the Pokémon eras (part 4 – The final journey).
