[Scene opens – 68 years later]In a future veiled in eternal twilight, time gently bends as the throne of the most powerful being begins to glow. Aethernis – once known as Aarav – awakens from deep meditation. His eyes, timeless and radiant, reflect a storm of memories. With a single flick of his hand, space warps — and two souls are summoned to his realm.
In an instant, the reincarnations of Zabuza and Saanvi appear before him.Zabuza stares with quiet understanding — he knows who Aethernis truly is.But Saanvi, still trapped in the limitations of her human memory, remains confused.
Aethernis rises from his throne. As he descends the grand staircase, his form begins to change.Step by step, his age decreases.From 25... to 20... 15... until he reaches the form of a 10-year-old boy.When Saanvi sees his innocent face — her heart trembles.
Her eyes widen. Tears brim.She rushes toward him, embracing the child-form of the man she once loved."You're... Aarav?" she whispers.But then, her voice hardens. "You betrayed me… You promised you'd be mine. Yet you loved another."
Aethernis gently replies, "Which girl do you speak of? I've never even looked at anyone else… except you. When you are a zombie queens — and kill my sisters . I was trying to stop you, but you never listened… You married Zabuza."
Saanvi gasps. "Did I… kill your sisters?"
She breaks down."I remember nothing… After I shattered completely, I submitted to the power of the zombies. Everything after that is… blank."
She looks at Zabuza, puzzled. "And who is this boy with me? Why does he feel so… familiar?"
Aethernis speaks, "He is Zabuza — and once, he was the true Zombie King."
Saanvi's expression turns fierce. She charges at Zabuza, enraged — but Aethernis stops her.
"His mind was under the control of Eternis. He gave up his life to save the world. He deserves peace, not vengeance."
Zabuza nods solemnly.
Then Saanvi asks, "But why did you summon us, Aarav? Eternis is dead… isn't he?"
Aethernis's face grows heavy.
"No. Eternis's powers are eternal. They reincarnate every 50 years… And when you reach the age of 18, his powers will awaken through you again. Which means…"
He looks at her with sorrowful eyes."I must kill you before that happens — or the world will fall again."
Saanvi gasps, trembling. "So… you gave me back my memories just so I could die?"
"But I don't blame you," she adds softly. "I know you killed my parents too."
Aethernis is stunned.
"How do you—?"
"I saw your divine form the day my parents died. Even now, your aura matches that vision… I connected the pieces."
He turns away in guilt. "Forgive me."
"You don't need forgiveness," she says. "You're saving the world."
Then she holds his hand. "Do me one favor."
Aethernis: "Anything."
Saanvi: "When I'm reborn after 50 years… and I turn 10, give me my powers again. I want to spend the next 8 years… with you."
Zabuza steps forward too.
"I want to spend time with my future family. Please… grant me this chance."
Aethernis smiles softly.
"I hear your wish… and accept it."
Saanvi suddenly teases:"But why did you change your name to Aethernis?"
He smirks.
"Because it sounds cooler. And I've surpassed the power of Eternis himself."
She laughs through her tears."Then thank you, oh mighty King Aethernis, for listening to the wishes of weak beings like us."
Suddenly, the clock strikes midnight.Their bodies begin to glow — a signal that the awakening has begun.They nod.
"It's time," they whisper.Aethernis steps forward.
"I will meet you again… in 60 years."With a flash of divine energy — he ends their lives peacefully.
[Scene Shift – 60 Years Later]
A young boy, now 10, awakens with tears in his eyes. Zabuza — reborn — regains his memories. His latent powers activate.He closes his eyes… and instantly teleports to Aethernis.
As he arrives, he sees Saanvi, who had appeared a minute earlier.
They both bow in reverence.
Aethernis quickly lifts their heads."You don't need to bow. You're my friends."
Saanvi shyly expresses her wish —"I want to explore the whole world with you… in my human form."
Zabuza adds, "I want to build something great for my family."
Aethernis — now back in his human form, Aarav — smiles.He listens quietly.
Then, turning toward the horizon, he says:
"It's time for the next journey…"
