Suddenly, a blinding light bursts from the skies--piercing through clouds, shaking the ground. Descending from the heaven is Xerion Shadow, flanked by inferna Scarlett, Zyphon Vetto, and an army of thousands. Their aura is so immense, so crushing, that citizens collapsed just from proximity. Inside the Empress Dynasty, alarms blare. Empress Asuna rises from her throne, her eyes glowing.
Queen Nia
(Serious)
"They're here."
Empress Asuna
(Firmly)
"No time for talking. We head down--now."
She and her Queens telport instantly to the battlefield. At the Crimson Slayers Kingdom, King Ryder gathers his elite. All of them telported with him--landing beside Empress Asuna.
King Ryder:
(Urgently to Ryuu)
"Tell all Kings and Queens to stay in their kingdoms. We need to guard against sneaky attacks."
Ryuu nods and broadcasts his voice across the kingdoms. All kingdoms receive the message and agree. At the Phoenix Wrath Kingdom---they responded.
Queen Celeste:
(To herself surbordinates)
"Prepare yourselves."
Yuuto:
(Evil smirk)
"I can't wait..."
Back at home, Void ling, Blaze, Seraphina, Liam sense the shift. And they all spoke with Urgent
Void ling:
(Serious)
"Let's go."
Blaze Vortex:
(Nodding)
"Right."
Seraphina Nyx:
(Firmly)
"Right."
They teleport--arriving beside King Ryder and Empress Asuna. And King Ryder turned and spoke.
King Ryder:
(To Void ling)
"Made it in time."
Celestina:
(To Seraphina)
"Are you alright, my dear?"
Seraphina & Liam:
(In unison)
"Yes."
They all turned to face Xerion, who stands calmly, his army behind him. Empress Asuna stepped forward.
Empress Asuna:
(Grinning, sweat on her face)
"Well...who decided to show up again?"
Xerion Shadow:
(Smirking, calm)
"You knew I would."
King Ryder:
(To himself)
"I knew it... He wasn't alone."
Queen Revy:
(Pointing)
"Who are those with him?"
Xerion Shadow:
(Turned to Revy)
"Fight them...and you'll find out."
Kai:
(Eyes wide)
"Do you guys see the thousands people behind them?!"
Xerion Shadow:
(Casually)
"Oh, don't worry. They've surrounded the entire kingdom. No need to rush."
Kaia:
(Shocked)
"What?!"
Takashi:
(Gritted his teeth)
"This is bad..."
Void ling:
(To Xerion, smirking)
"So it begins."
Xerion Shadow:
(Smirked)
"Indeed."
Zyphon Vetto:
(To Blaze)
"I'd like to fight you. You look strong."
Liam Hearts:
(Shocked)
"He's even choosing who to fight?"
Blaze Vortex:
(Grinning)
"Such confidence."
Zyphon Vetto:
(Smirking)
"You'll need more than confidence to survive me."
Inferna Scarlett:
(Pointing)
"I'll fight that white long-haired guy..."
Ryuu:
(To King Ryder)
"My lord...i think she means you."
King Ryder:
(Smirking)
"Then let's give her a proper welcome."
Xerion Shadow:
(Stepping forward)
"And I shall take the Empress myself."
Empress Asuna:
(Hovering)
"Are you sure you want to fight me?
Xerion Shadow:
(Grinning)
"Aww, come on. Last time we fought, I almost killed you. What makes you so confident now?"
Empress Asuna:
(Grinning back)
"You'll see."
Queen Revy & Queen Mae:
(Worried)
"Empress Asuna..."
Empress Asuna and Xerion rises into the air, facing each other. Their aura clash--light and Shadow swirling. They lock eyes--serious, focused ready. Back on the ground, Zyphon Vetto turns to Blaze, his aura pulsing.
Zyphon Vetto:
(Grinning)
"Let's fight somewhere else. I want space to fight."
Blaze Vortex:
(Smirking)
"Lead the way."
Both telport--vanishing in a fflash, landing in a Vast, open terrain surrounded by jagged cliffs and endless sky. Moments later, Void ling, Seraphina, Liam and Celestina arrive--landing softly behind Blaze.
Zyphon Vetto:
(Raising an eyebrow)
"Why did you follow?"
Void ling:
(Smirking)
"We're here to observe. And to make sure Blaze doesn't hold back."
Celestina:
(Calmly)
"We'll stay out of the way."
Liam Hearts:
(Cheering)
"Go Blaze! Show him what you've got!"
Back at the Astral Kingdom, King Ryder turns to Inferna Scarlett. And then King Ryder spoke.
King Ryder;
(Firmly)
"Since you want to fight me... let's take this elsewhere."
Ryuu:
(Stepping forward)
"Mind if I follow you, my lord?"
King Ryder:
(Nodding)
"Yes. Let's go."
They telported--arriving in a volcanic canyon, aura flowing beneath jagged stone platforms. And Inferna Spoke.
Inferna Scarlett:
(Mocking)
"You think you can handle me, old man?"
Ryuu:
(Smirking)
"You talk a lot for someone who's about to lose."
King Ryder:
(Stepping forward)
"Ryder is my name. King of the Crimson Slayers Kingdom."
Inferna Scarlett:
(Grinning)
"Inferna Scarlett. Left Hand of God, and also the Successor of Lord Xerion."
Back at the Astal Kingdom, Queen Revy addresses the remaining warriors.
Queen Revy:
(Commanding)
"The rest of you--go assist the other Kings and Queens. We need to hold the line. And also help them fight the armies. Kai and Kaia go to the Genesis Squad Kingdom and Takashi and Glacior go to the Phoenix Wrath Kingdom."
They bowed and teleported to their assigned fronts. High above the Astral Kingdom, Empresss Asuna and Xerion Shadow floats in silence. Their aura clash--light and void spiraling around them. They stare each other down--no words, just war.
In the skies abovd the Astral Kingdom,Empress Asuna and Xerion Shadow surge forward--immense and monstrous speed, their bodies blurring through the air. Fist meets fist--clash to clash, shockwaves rippling across the sky. Each blow shatters trees below, the air itself trembling under their power. They teleport mid--combat--fist to fist, strike to strike, each Collison echoing like thunder.
Xerion Shadow:
(Smirking mid-fight)
"You're faster than before..."
Empress Asuna:
(Grinning)
"And you're still predictable."
Xerion spins--launches a kick toward her face. Empress Asuna raises both hands--blocks it cleanly, her aura flaring. She counters--lands a powerful blow to Xerion's chest, sending him flying backward through the air.
Empress Asuna:
(Hovering, voice sharp)
"You underestimated me again."
From below, Queen Mae watches in awe and then spoke.
Queen Mae:
(Surprised)
"Didn't expect Empress Asuna to give Xerion such a hard time."
Queen Nia:
(Nodding)
"Tell me about it..."
Xerion Shadow:
(Smirking)
"I'm impressed, Empress. But can you keep up...for that long?"
Empress Asuna:
(Eyes glowing)
"Try me."
In the vast, open terrain, the wind howls as Blaze Vortex and Zyphon Vetto face off. Without warning, Blaze surges forward--his speed monstrous, his aura blazing red and black.
Blaze Vortex:
(Roaring)
"Show me what you got!"
They clash--fist to fist, shockwaves rippling across the land. Each strike cracks the earth,sends dust spiraling into the sky. Zyphon grins and raises his palm--launches a beam of light, sharp and fast. Blaze dodges effortlessly, weaving through the blasts with blazing speed. Then--Blaze closed the distance, his fist glowing with infernal energy. He launches a massive punch straight into Zyphon's stomach--impacting with brutal force. As Zyphon is sent flying, coughing blood--mid aira, crashing into a cliffside.
Zyphon Vetto:
(Groaning)
"Your punch...it's so heavy... i could never imagine..."
Blaze Vortex:
(Walking forward)
"That's just the beginning. I don't hold back when the stakes are real."
Zyphon wipes the blood from his mouth, eyes burning with resolve.
Zyphon Vetto:
(Voice deep)
"No holding back."
He stands tall--his body begins to radiate, aura flaring like a solar storm. The air warps around him, light bending, pressure rising.
Liam Hearts:
(Shielding her face)
"What...what a monstrous energy..."
Celestina:
(Gazing wide eyed)
"He's transcending his limits."
Blaze Vortex:
(Coldly)
"Power up all you want. It'll be futile."
Zyphon Vetto:
(Grinning)
"You'll see."
Zyphon surges forward, fist blazing with radiant force. He throws a flurry of punches--Blaze blocks with palms and forearms, but the final strike breaks through, sending blaze flying through jagged stone. Before blaze can recover, Zyphon teleports, appearing above--punches Blaze mid-air, launching him skyward. Then--teleports again, hands glowing with divine fury.
Zyphon Vetto:
(Shouting)
"TAKE THIS!"
A massive huge light erupted from his palms--it strikes Blaze mid--air, engulfing him in a blinding explosion.
Seraphina Nyx:
(Watching in horror)
"No...that's impossible... it can't be...it can't..."
The dust settles. Blaze lands hard, motionless. Void ling watches silently, unreadable.
Zyphon Vetto:
(Breathing heavily)
"It's over..."
Liam Hearts:
(Tears streaming)
"Nooo...Blaze!!!"
Blaze lies on the ground, his aura dimmed, body still. Zyphon lands softly on the ground his aura still flaring. He turns to the others.
Zyphon Vetto:
(Calmly)
"That's what happens when you challenge me. Your fire warriors is finshed."
The wind is still. Blaze lies motionless. Liam's fists tremble. Celestina eyes are filled with worry. Void ling steps forward.
Void ling:
(Voice low, confident)
"I may warn you...You'd rather not fight me. Because Blaze will be back soon."
Liam Hearts:
(Tears still fresh)
"How are you sure, Void ling?"
Void ling:
(Without blinking)
"Just watch"
Celestina glances at Blaze, her heart racing.
Celestina:
(Softly)
"Please...come back..."
