Ryu's POV
Aiden blasted towards me and I wasn't ready allowing Aiden to uppercut my chin so hard I went straight into space. I stopped myself and created a giant magical shield in front of me but Aiden teleported behind me and kicked my back. I stopped myself but then Aiden tackled me and charged into an earth.
We went straight into the ground, through the core and out of the other side of the earth. The earth exploded and my eyes widened when that happened. I screamed in anger and kneed Aiden and slammed his back with my fist. Aiden let go of me but kicked me away from him. I stopped myself but then Aiden slammed his palms together in a praying position.
I felt the earths on both my right and left side start to move towards me. I used my eye and stopped the earth from colliding. I let out a sigh in relief but then I felt something move on top of me. I looked up and my eyes widened when I saw a third earth crash into the two earths. It started to create some kind of connection in all of the three atmospheres and all three of them exploded.
I was blown away from the impact and I destroyed a bunch of destroyed parts of the earth. I fell down into another earth and I crashed on the ground, creating a huge ditch. I groaned in pain and looked up to see four earths destroyed, their pieces scattered all over the place. But then there was this giant laser coming straight towards me. I gasped and moved out of the way barely avoiding it. The laser goes right through the earth and the laser moves down once and it splits the earth in half. The earth underneath exploded and I went flying back into space where Aiden was waiting.
I gathered all of my augmentation and blasted it all at him but he dodged and instead I hit another earth and that earth exploded as well. I groaned in anger but Aiden began to open portals and he began to pop out of one, hit me, go into another portal and come out of another. Aiden was beating the shit of me, punching my face, ribs, stomach, chest breaking most of my bones.
Aiden then grabbed my hair and his hand began to emit bright yellow light. He punched me with that and I gasped in pain and was sent crashing into a bunch of earths, destroying them in the process.
I stopped flying around in space where there were no more earths but I was too weak to move. I was just floating around in space, at the edge of my life. But then I saw the MVA fleet behind me and my eyes widened.
'Mom, Lydia, Kishimoto, Demon...'
In the distance where the remaining earths were, Aiden was flying straight towards me. I groaned in pain and forced myself to look at him but I couldn't continue because of the immense pain.
I was about to give up but then floating next to me was Aneko's hatchet. My eyes widened and I took it in my hand. I started to remember the last thing she told me before she teleported me away.
"Because... because I... I love you." Aneko's final words echoed in my head.
I broke a weak smile and attached the hatchet stick behind my back. I took a deep breath since I could breathe in space and closed my eyes.
'God, please lend me some of your strength.'
I exhaled all the air in my lungs before opening my eyes and they started glowing. I began to see multiple symbols so I gathered all of augmentation I could into both of my arms but I began to mutter the symbols and I noticed that the remaining earths began to shine bright and then multiple strands of the light began to enter my body and I felt a huge amount of energy flow into my body.
Aiden's eyes widened but he glared at me and continued to fly towards me. My eyes were glowing brighter including my body and I felt so much stronger then when I was at my peak in the past. I transferred all of my strength into my right arm and blasted towards him.
Aiden screamed at the top of his lungs and I was able to hear his cry. And I grit my teeth and began to slowly scream louder as I got closer to Aiden. When I was about 2 feet away from him everything felt slow. Aiden swung his arm at my head but I duck under and I looked up at Aiden and his eyes were wide and I saw fear in his eyes.
'Farewell, Aiden.'
I punched him in the stomach so hard this huge laser of lightning blasted out of my arm and it destroyed everything. I watched as Aiden screamed in pain and turned to dust but I also watched as all the earths turned into dust.
I stayed still, floating in space feeling drowsy and really weak. There was nothing in front me, no more earths, no more Aiden, just darkness. My eyes began to feel droopy and I looked at the MVA fleet and they looked safe.
'Thank you, God.'
And with that, I closed my eyes and let out my final breath.
Lydia's POV
I felt a wave of energy enter me again and I realized that I got my augmentations back.
"Kishimoto!" I gasped in excitement
"Yea I got my augmentation!" he yelled
"Lydia! Kishimoto! We need to get Ryu!" yelled Kurt, "I'm not getting any life sign from him!"
My eyes widened and Kishimoto grabbed my arm and we got on a Raven and blasted off. I looked around for Ryu but I couldn't see anything in this darkness.
"Oi I see something!" yelled Kishimoto
I looked at what he was pointing at and my eyes widened when I saw Thunderbird and Phoenix floating in space. The pilots flew close to them and I got out of the Raven and grabbed Thunderbird and Phoenix and returned back into the Raven.
"I think they're breathing." I said
"They are breathing." confirmed Kishimoto
"Sir I have eyes on something, possibly Ryu." said the pilot
I went into the cockpit and looked at what he was looking at.
"That's him!" gasped Kishimoto
I got out of the Raven and grabbed Ryu's body and glided back into the Raven. I laid Ryu's body on the floor and checked for his pulse but I didn't feel anything.
"Ryu! Ryu wake up!" I yelled
I began to perform CPR on him but he wasn't responding. A medic began treating him but he shook his head signaling me that he was dead.
My heart felt heavy and I began to sob on Ryu's chest. Kishimoto sat on the floor and closed his eyes. I began pounding on his heart hoping to at least wake him up.
"Wake up you son of bitch!" I cried
My punches began to become weaker and weaker.
"Wake up..." I cried
The Raven landed back on the Nova and the medic and a couple of other doctors came and carried him away. I followed them into the med bay and they began to try to do everything they can to revive him.
Ryu's mom walked in and she gasped when she saw Ryu's body on the table. She ran up to Ryu but Aragorn held her back while she cried out for Ryu.
"My queen can't you save Ryu?" I asked
"I can't resurrect someone." sadly replied the queen
"But I can." said Demon
Demon closed her eyes and began muttering some words but then she opened her eyes and raised an eyebrow.
"He's not in hell." said Demon
I collapsed on a chair but just as I was about to cry I heard the monitor start to beep.
"We're getting something!" yelled a healing magician
"What is it?" asked the queen
"Just some brain activity." replied the healing magician
That's when the monitor started beeping again.
"We got heart activity!" excitedly said the magician
Everyone sighed in relief and I just smiled and began crying.
"Oi, where's Aiden?" asked Demon
Everyone turned to look at her.
"If Ryu came back, that means-"
That's when Ryu started coughing before groaning.
"Ryu!" gasped Ryu's mom
Ryu slowly opened his eyes and looked around.
"Am I dead?" he whispered
Ryu's mom hugged Ryu and started sobbing. Aragorn wiped his tears away and Demon approached Ryu.
"Can all of you give us some time?" asked Demon
"Huh?" questioned Kurt
"Just give me a minute with Ryu." said Demon
"How do we know you're not going to kill Ryu?" asked Kishimoto
"Guys..." whispered Ryu
He signaled us that it'll be okay so I sighed and we all slowly left the room. Ryu's mom came out last and I closed the door behind her.
Ryu's POV
Demon sighed and approached me.
"Where's Aiden?" she asked
"He's dead." I sighed, "I had to kill him."
Demon didn't seem to react but I began to read heavy wave signs in her brain.
"Why didn't you give him a chance?" asked Demon
"W-what do you mean?" I asked
"Why didn't you give him a second chance?! You gave me a second chance so why couldn't you give him a second chance?!" cried Demon
My eyes widened from what she was saying.
"A-Ada I-"
"Shut up! Shut up! You never lost someone twice in your life so you don't know how it feels!" she yelled
She stormed out of the room leaving me dumbfounded but at the same time, guilty.
"Ada!" I called out
But it was too late, she left the room and I sighed in anger.
"Fuck..."

2 hours later
Ryu's POV
Demon wasn't really happy so we couldn't convince her to revive the worlds. But she said that she couldn't since she wasn't the one who destroyed it.
"Ryu, can you revive the worlds?" asked Lydia
"I don't know." I sighed
"The Matrix allows you to do that." said the queen
My left eye began to glow and I began searching through the symbols until I found it.
"I found it." I gasped in surprise
I got up and began to mumble the symbols and began to put all the earths back to its normal position in the multiverse.
'That was... easy.'
I sighed in relief as I saw earth prime appear near us.
'Aneko. Aerin.'
I began to scroll through the symbols and I began to revive everyone who died. Not just Aneko and Aerin, but everyone else. Aneko and Aerin began to slowly appear out of thin air and Kishimoto's eyes widened.
"Oi oi Aneko!" he cried
He hugged her and Aneko's eyes widened and she looked so confused. The queen started crying as she hugged Aerin and I sighed in relief. Aneko looked at me and I just smiled and nodded before taking a seat.
"Ryu, is our world revived?" asked Jin Woo
"Yea it is." I replied
I opened a portal to their world.
"Everyone's waiting for you." I said
Jin Woo nodded and he shook my hand.
"I hope we meet again." he said
"Yea, underdifferent circumstances." I said
He nodded and I shook hands with Hae In before the two of them entered the portal and I closed in behind them. I approached Masato and the three succubuses.
"Masato I think it's time for you to go back home." I said, "Oh and I have a question."
"Yes?" questioned Masato
"A succubus is immortal but you're not." I said, "Would you like to be immortal?"
His eyes widened and he looked at the Tomoe, Ayano and Shitone and they were all smiling and nodding.
"Yes I would." he replied
I touched his head and made him immortal using my magic.
"There." I sighed
I opened a portal to their earth.
"Maybe we can meet again." I said
"I hope we do. But for now take care." said Masato
I nodded and all four of them entered the portal. I sighed and let Kishimoto and the others have some personal time together so I wanted to meet my mom so I left to go looking for her. I heard her voice in a room but before I entered I heard something that made me feel miserable.
"I think my life would have been a lot easier if I didn't have Ryu in my life." said my mom
