Hell's One: Fate Punishes The Weak

"The ownership of a certain soul contract is passed onto a new owner, that choice was taken by the boss, and he chose you", Unknown says, "you WILL free me by using a soul transition".

"Yeah I know, but you said it yourself, it's in a couple of months", Dovmencar says, "I'll initiate a soul transition soon…IF you help me with this battle against Lucifer".

"You son of a bitch", Unknown says as he holds Dovmencar up against the warehouse's walls.

"I want to be with Cyrus, I'm sure he's dead too!", Unknown says, "free my soul!".

Who could this Unknown blob of dark matter be?

"Cyrus?", Dovmencar asks, "he ain't dead, he's participating in the next Tormenting Games, now let me go or I'll completely delete you from existence".

Unknown then drops Dovmencar, he couldn't believe it.

"I'm leaving, I'm not staying an extra second here", Unknown says.

"It seems that you've forgotten our deal", Dovmencar says, "you WILL help me defeat Lucifer".

So at the heat of the moment, Unknown decides to commit an unforgivable act.

"Fine, I'll just end it all right now", Unknown says, "Speed Demon: Acceleration".

Speed Demon, an ability that causes time to accelerate ahead, the resulting time would be up to the user of this ability.

Since Pillar Combustion Day is absolute, it isn't reversible nor nullified, but it can be accelerated to its absolute result…destruction.

Time just moves forward, Dovmencar and all the other members can't witness the changes as they happen, but Unknown can.

Since they were deciding on reaching the parliament, they're teleported there.

It was gone…all of it.

Nothing but sand and rubble.

Buildings were nonexistent and not a single piece of life is there to be seen.

"What…have you done?", Dovmencar says, "what ability did you just use?".

"That's got nothing to do with you now, I'm leaving", Unknown says, "I stayed true to your deal, now you do your part of the deal and let me go".

"Yeah…sure, you can go, but this damage won't go unnoticed by the UN", Dovmencar says, "you've begun a goddamn war, Unknown".

"I did it for freedom, that's all that matters", Unknown says, "now send a neuronic message to the receptionist to initiate a teleportation".

Dovmencar listens and sends a message to the receptionist through his neuronic translator device.

It can translate human speech into neuronic messages.

"She'll forward the message to Marzia, we'll be back soon", Dovmencar says.

Dovmencar's still quite flabbergasted, he's gotten all of the Colonials' abilities memorized, but he never saw Speed Demon, his trust has lessened towards Unknown.

"Oh the lords of Valhalla, Hell has truly fallen onto us", Bjørn says, "my axe is quite useless now".

"Who knows how far this desert-like terrain goes on for?", Dovmencar says, "it could be across all of Europe".

"Let's just…take all of this in", Bjørn says.

Reality can truly be a frightening sight.

"It seems that today marks the day we lose our first Colonial, thank you…Sanders", Dovmencar says while a tear slowly drops from his eye.

Dovmencar may end up being a merciless killer, but he loved every member of the Colonials, he'd do anything for them, but death is inevitable.

Somewhere in a distant abyss

"Huh…where am I?", Zane asks.

Zane gets up, he seems to be in a forest, a misty one.

In front of him appeared a wooden cabin.

It looks quite old and deteriorated, no one would ever live in a place like this.

Who walks up to the door and knocks, "hey, anyone here?", Zane asks.

"Come on in, vessel of God", a voice within the cabin says.

Vessel of God?

"Uhhh, y'know what?", Zane says, "I think I knocked the wrong door, I thought you were a friend, sorry and good night".

The door then bursts open, but no one seems to have opened it, it's some kind of force.

"Come on in…", the voice says.

"Fine, but I ain't good with this poltergeist-type shit", Zane says.

Zane continues to walk in, knowing he'll probably die anyways.

He sees a room with a run-down door, he opens it and sees a cloaked man holding a scythe.

The cloak was white with a red cross in the middle of it.

"Who the hell are you supposed to be?", Zane asks.

"God has created the human form in his divine image and he has managed to create a certain life form known as 'Hybrids', you here…are one of them, correct?", the creature says.

"Hell yeah I'm a Hybrid, it's about goddamn time someone acknowledges my work, you seem to want an autograph, here, I'll sign that clock of yours", Zane says.

"You are mistaken, human…I am Fate", Fate says, "the ideology of Fate has finally taken its final form, which is me".

Fate represents one's destiny in life.

Fate is what's utilised for a devil to unlock their ability's maximum potential.

"Ohhhh, so you're Fate…nice to see you man, how you doin'?", Zane asks.

"This is no time to be joking, Zane", Fate says, "you've died in one of the alternative universes, and now you're here".

"Well, if I'm dead, shouldn't I be in Hell or Heaven, right?", Zane asks.

"You're here because God has asked me to reincarnate your soul, he has chosen you to restore hope for all of humanity", Fate says, "and since a Hybrid's body can only hold 3 abilities, I've decided to strengthen you by increasing that number, you'll know that number eventually, you'll be reincarnated to earth's first angel".

Zane questions that decision, why of all people on earth.

"I know I shouldn't be questioning your judgement, but there are so many people out there, I'm no angel…why me?", Zane asks.

"It wasn't my decision, God's word is absolute, but then again, Fate is fair, I work for Hell and Heaven, I couldn't care less for your future, I'm just a slave to my divine duty", Fate says.

"Ouch, I didn't expect Fate to be so direct, but if that's what I must do, then so be it", Zane says.

Fate then stands up and draws a teleportation circle around Zane's feet, "Fate punishes the weak, so become strong", Fate says.
