The End

The consequences, what consequences I wasn't even involved in . Just for the miracle to happen to fail . Well it was a miracle , after all it would've failed .

Something or someone was coming out of the clouds .

A fearsome being , a deity just like Phizon . being with various assortment of weapons . A white silk shawl floating behind him . In his hands were his signature weapons Two burning Talwar .

The wapons were shouting about his identity .

The Guardian of Existence , Sein .

He descended from the clouds with his eyes closed and when he opened his eyes one could see all the 7 colours of the rainbow in a ring like pattern around the iris and pitch black in the lens .

But we could hardly see him since he was way too high floating in the air .

He descended downwards and saw the three of us .

Sein :

Tampering with the principles of the world is a sin .

Do understand.

Sein :

The dead should never be alive , Just like the water of the rainforest never stops its flow .

Sein :

You understand my words .

Jacob :

Yes I understand .

Sein :

Then my work is done here . Leave the past and live on a righteous path .

His divine aura was like that of someone who was enlightened . So much that by just his words people's hearts would be moved . And when he said something I felt like his words had made my world much brighter .

Sein turned and started to ascend when he was stopped by another voice .

? : Stop , Wait Sein .

Sein :

Who dares to call me by my name .

Sein was angered by his ego as he was proud of being a god .

? :

Oh Sein , no need to be so stiff. Just try your plain voice . Maybe like a human .

Sein turned back and looked downwards .

Came another man with a pointed helmet with fur hanging around its back , he had huge physique , he wore shoulder pads of aluminium painted with gold While he wore a red cape and carried a what the hell is that ?

A sword , made of swords ? And a big one at that .

The swords seemed to be attached to a central sword . Which was gaint in itself . On the sides there were about 250 swords attached to it . The lenght of the blade was about 10 feet .

And I think it weighs a Ton of maybe more than that. But he's still holding it like it weighs 10 grams .

Anyhow you look at it . It is definitely Ultra Overkill

Sein :

Finally you showed your face . You Fiend.

? :

Whoa hey , It's been centuries since we f met and those are your first words . Take a chill pill Sein . Or you might die of high blood pressure.

(Laughs loudly) That's my best one yet .

Sein :

Why did you kill Luminos , Answer me Ikaros .

Depending on your answer I might end your life without pain.

Ikaros : muffled voice

Yeah good luck with that .

Sein :

You might want to take that pointy helmet off you .

Ikaros : (Realisation)

Yea right .

He removed his helmet . His face was in his prime but it felt like he was too old like some of the characters such as slightly wrinkled skin . Fully white and black hair , his hair turned white from working himself to the bone , extreme stress , tension . A twirled moustache which has whitened due to age . And an unparalleled smile .

Ikaros Ikaros ah yes that tape guy . But what is he doing here of all places . Shouldn't he be in the demon island making preparations for war .

I want to question him but I can't seem to get a chance to jump in . Is this the ' Bystander effect '

Sein :

Your face hasn't changed .

Ikaros :

You still look the same .

Where is the direction their conversation Is heading ? . First they were trying to kill each other . And now it's casual .

Sein :

Enough chit chat , out with answers now

(Points a burning Talwar at Ikaros )

Ikaros :

Just calm down I'm not here to fight . Put down that Talwar you flame boy .

The intensity of the fire on the Talwar increased as in the blink of an eye . A deity vanished from my eyes and was seen trying to cut Ikaros's neck in full blaze as sparks were just flying out by just the blades touching each other but then their speeds increased so much that they couldn't even be perceived with my senses .

This is what I'm going to go against . I .. I .. somehow don't feel anything.

Skill :

Fear resistance activated .

You are fighting against the fear .

You won and no longer feel the fear .

Ikaros :

Ah reminds me of the old days , hey why don't we go out for a drink and fight later .

Sein :

You still haven't learned that you should be serious .

Ikaros :

Life is short so you should live it without limiting yourself.

McElroy:

Doesn't it feel kinda wrong when an immortal person says it .

Ikaros :

Even if I'm immortal I have the heart of a human .

Sein :

And the brains of a donkey .

Ikaros :

Okay that's it playtime's over .

He removed an earpiece from his pocket and muttered something in the earpiece .

Ikaros :

Begining the testing of the prototype 2 ver 2.245

He removed another thing from its pockets something that resembles a pyramid and a rubix cube .

Ikaros :

Catch Sein .

He threw the pyramid towards Sein and it unfolded as a flash of light covered him while he was levitating.

Sein fell down as his levitation suddenly stopped.

His constantly burning Talwar was extinguished .

And his floating silk shawl came down lightly .

Sein :

What have you done , Ikaros I can't control my power . What have you done with it .

Ikaros :

Just a little trick up my sleeve . You like it .

Ikaros :

Now then the time for chitchat is over . Now it's time for you to join Luminos. I'll make this as painless as possible for you .

Ikaros kept his sword on the ground and dashed towards Sein and hit him with a palm strike .

With such a force that Sein was sent flying while he speed out blood . He tumbled on the ground and was filled with wounds but still alive .

For a deity to be beaten is. nothing but itself a miracle. His blood flow was temporarily stopped and thus the deities brain wasn't getting oxygen .

So he fell unconscious.

Ikaros :

You were a good friend Sein , I hope that we can become friends once again in your next life .

? :

I think you'll have to wait for that .

Suddenly another teleported in front of Sein and left with Sein without a glimpse .

Ikaros :

Tch , that apostle of his is a damn pain in the ass .

He touched his earpiece again .

Ikaros :

Prototype Type 2 was test was conducted successfully. Further improvement required.

Ikaros : (breath of relief )

Finally done , now the rest .

He turned towards us . And gleefully approached us . But we were on our guard ,

Ikaros : (Very friendly)

Hey everyone, how's everything going.

Ikaros :

Come on , men put your swords down . No need to be on guard . I've taken care of the threat .

Now that pesky god won't be able to trouble you .

Oh , I see now you are raising your swords against me . In that case .

I and Jay held our swords against him and they were stolen without us knowing.

Ikaros :

Much better .

Ikaros :

Oh I forgot to introduce myself .

Ikaros :

My name is Ikaros , I work at the foundation and I came here because I heard my dear friend had planned a miracle.

What about you guys .

He stole our swords in the blink of an eye fighting him would be a nightmare . I dropped my guard .

Jay:

I'm Jay Garrick nice to meet you Sir .

Ikaros :

No need for formalities , just drop it .

McElroy:

I'm McElroy and this is Jacob .

Ikaros:

Jay and McElroy I've heard of you somewhere .....

Oh you're the one I've send the challenge to .

Ikaros :

So you're the one who defeated her . I would like to fight you but I'm not here to fight .

Jay :

So may I know what are you here for .

Ikaros :

Same as you to see the miracle . Now with Sein gone we might be able to see the miracle again .

Jacob :

The mana needs to be gathered again for that to happen . I might do something for it to speed up . But it will take approximately 1 hour .

We returned to the carriage where everyone was asleep . While the paladin kept watch .

Paladin :

Did you , free the spirits ?

Jay :

Not yet. Has she woke up yet . I want to ask her something .

Paladin :

She woke up a while ago . I'll call her .

Nora :

The spirits are still there , still bound to the kingdom. Why haven't you freed them .

Jay :

Because we are going to create a miracle .

Nora :

Miracle ?

Jay :

We are going to bring back everyone that were lost .

Nora :

This is against the laws of the world . I can't let something like that happen .

Paladin :

Please calm down , you need rest right now .

Nora :

No I'm fine , it's nothing .

She was still weak both physically and mentally .

For physical she was clensed by the paladin and mentally she was taken over by an angered spirit .

It's okay everyone is going to back and everything will be all right .

Around the campfire were the three of us while Jacob was readying the circle once again .

Ikaros :

So you have any questions you can ask me .

Jay :

Tell me about your organisation where you work .

Ikaros:

Well the three of us formed it together.

Me , Maria and one more but he's kind of a buzzkill . Always going on yapping Ikaros do this z do that , why isn't this done , why are you so lazy .

Ah I'm tired of it . I just want someone to succeed me already but they can't , they just die out before us .

Jay :

Hey do you still have the keys to the gate .

Ikaros :

Sure do .

Shows the key off . It was an icy blue colour and it's design made it look more like a marble flooring rather than a key .

Ikaros :

This is the last present I have received from my master .

McElroy:

Who's your master ?

Ikaros :

Oh you've might have heard of him . He's the gatebuster, Master Helios .

I want to honor his last wish to pass on this key to another gatebuster. .But first they will have to go through me .

Though it's been centuries and my memories of him have become very blurry .

But I can say this , I can understand that he was a gatebuster but I could never forgive him for leaving us in the time of need .

Ikaros : (Nostalgic)

You lot resemble a kind person who saved me when I was powerless . It's been a 1000 years but one day their traves suddenly disappeared like they never belonged to this world. I've been searching for them ever since .

To repay them ,

Because of them I am now who I am . If the weren't there I still would be loitering the streets .

Ikaros : (Changing the topic)

So tell me about your adventures. I heard you took someone of the top brass one time .

McElroy: (Confused)

You're , not upset about that ?

Ikaros :

Well I can't say I'm not upset about it .But seeing the growth potential you both have . I knew it would eventually come.

Jacob:

Hey everyone I'm done resetting the circle .

Resetting the scene once again . Let's try this again one more time . What could go wrong .

Ikaros :

Gentlemen today we are making history today .

The circle started working it gathered mana . It changed colours . First it was purple then blue .

Nora :

Wait you can't it won't end we'll . Listen please . The souls will be lost and if you try them to force into bodies they will be, broken .

Ikaros :

I appreciate your concern , but they are already dead and wandering without rest . Where will they go ! .

Nora held a sword and tried to attack the circle . Only to be escorted back into the carriage in 5 seconds with her weapon confiscated .

The circle turned green .

Jacob :

The circle is now operational . Now it is beginning it's preliminary test .

A spirit made of a pure white flame like shape started to appear .

The soil started to be lifted and slowly started turning into a human body .

The body was being lifted in the air towards the soul .

McElroy:

This is it .

Jay :

I can't believe my eyes .

Ikaros :

Maria you should have been here to see this .

Jacob :

.....

This was indeed truly a miracle happening here .

And now everyone will be back .

Suddenly trembling occured .

Jacob :

Something is wrong with the output of the circle .

Jay can you go check the circle . For any gaps .

Ikaros : (receiving transmission )

Hello sir , I don't think it is something to report but there is a slight trembling in the area you're in . Space time is operating in an unusual manner .

It might be some fluctuations.

Nothing to worry about .

Ikaros :

Hello can you hear me I am sending a live feed here . Can you try to focus on the area .

" Yes Sir " Was heard in the earpiece .

Jay :

There nothing wrong with the circle .

Ikaros :

Well there might be some fluctuations in the space time , but nothing big to worry about .

Another trembling occured and a much bigger one . The circle lost all the power .

Ikaros : (Transmission incoming)

Sir you need to get out of there , The fluctuations have become much more serious , The fabric of space time is being torn apart .

Ikaros : (Talking to himself )

So the world would rather end than letting someone dead live . What an absurd upholding of principles .

A massive crack appeared above chroma about 39feet wide and it shattered revealing an consuming void . Its flow was so strong that it began to suck everything inside it .

Jay :

SHIT RUUUUUNNNNN ?!!!

Jay propelled himself with fire paralleled to the ground . He put his entire mana stored in his body to propel him with maximum output . But the suction was so strong his mana was suctioned outside of his body with him . It felt like his skin was being taken away from his body.

McElroy started running against it but was taken soon after.

Ikaros held Jacob in his hand and was successful in running away from the crack .

The carriage was outside the range of the suction but it's effects could still be seen .

Ikaros stopped near the carriage .

Nora :

I told you , that you shouldn't break the principles of the world . Look what has happened.

Ikaros :

Where both of them .

Nora :

I thought they were with you .

Ikaros :

Shit . I should have seen this coming .

The crack started to close and disappeared like nothing had happened.

Incoming Transmission .

Sir the space time has been restored to its normal state . Sir hello sir . Is anyone there ?

A miracle they said . It would bring everyone back they said today no one came back but the two of them were lost.

Finally the story of Jay Garrick has came to an end

Jay has now lost the challenge and is now bound in the rift of space.

The End . Fin .
