Mafia Crisis Part 29
[I regained parts of my control.]
[Faraday]
[Aftergarden.]
The trio sit as they are on Floor 5 of the Aftergarden.
Katrina, Bayon, and Lolibaba have been using The Girl to get access to places.
Katrina says
"This place.
"It's blending into my arm."
Bayon says
"We are all 90% pure white and for Lolibaba 99%."
"This place would be a dream for racist organizations on earth."
"Now let's continue."
The trio walks on with The Aftergarden, making sure to go under the guise of her "sending them in for questioning."
Katrina says while walking
"When you wrote that log Lolibaba."
"I feel like a lot was missing."
Lolibaba responds with
"I wasn't as powerful then as I am now."
"I really couldn't perceive Prime Omega."
"But now Prime Omega is nothing but a footnote to me."
Bayon responds with
"You have gotten a lot stronger, Lolibaba."
"You've truly become a pure being after all."
Lolibaba laughs and says
"Pure being? You think I'm some kind of God!"
"While I am the Goddess of Speed and Creation I am no more than just a mere mortal."
Katrina responds with
"I dunno, you did do things that weren't thought possible."
"You easily trapped the New superpowers."
"Only a few years ago you were only a mere Minor Power."
"But Lolibaba, can I ask you something?"
Lolibaba responds with
"What?"
Katrina then says
"Your goal?"
Lolibaba then says, very confused about what Katrina means
"My goal?"
"...."
"To save the universe."
Katrina then says
"No, that is our goal."
"But what is your goal?"
"What do you want to do with yourself?"
"I want to save my mother and I have a feeling she's here."
"Bayon wants to collapse this place to gain more power and become a N-Being."
"But what is your reasoning for being here?"
"You do have your daughter."
"But she's mostly safe."
"So tell me Lolibaba."
"What is your goal?"
Lolibaba sits there in silence, sitting there on the aftergarden "floor."
Lolibaba doesn't know what she wants to do in life.
She doesn't know what her goal is.
Lolibaba is a creation Goddess and a Speedster, that's all she knows and that's all she'll ever know.
Lolibaba is more treated as a powerful Being, a God, a figure.
Lolibaba knows that she's more than just her powers but she doesn't know who that is.
Lolibaba says
"I am a god."
"But I am a person."
"At Least in this form."
Lolibaba begins to cry and slowly her body turns Golden.
Bayon and Katrina both say, extremely shocked at what's happening
"Super Lolibaba!?"
7 Colored rems begin floating around Lolibaba as she begins to transform.
The Aftergarden Girl says
"This power!"
"It will surely alert the AFG."
"Prepare to fight."
Katrina says
"Are you helping us?"
The Aftergarden girl responds with
"Not exactly."
"But I'm not attacking you either."
Katrina says
"Fine with me!"
Katrina then pulls out her giant blue plasma sword fit with demonic, hellish designs.
She says
"Come at me!"
Bayon says while charging up a wish
"Do your worst!"
Various soldiers with white military gear come in.
Bayon says
"This is their special unit, Katrina."
"Capable of putting down their own After Garden Beasts."
"We gotta fight them head-on."
One of the soldiers says
"Stand down Bayon and Katrina Kitty!"
"We are hereby placing you under arrest!"
Bayon then shouts loudly
"You!? Arrest Me! I am a Pure Being!"
"You cannot Arrest Pure Beings!"
"Ahahahahah"
"Wish!"
She doesn't want to kill them so she just wishes for them to simply be out to sleep.
Katrina says
"Great job Bayon."
Bayon says
"It was nothing!"
"They know better than to mess with a pure Being."
"Now let's continue."
"Wait."
She then looks at Lolibaba
Bayon then says
"Are you okay?"
Lolibaba just sits there, in her golden form.
She then says
"I'm fine."
"Let's go on."
They then continue.
[Later..]
Lolibaba says quietly
"I feel like I can create anything now."
"I could before but I feel like I can go beyond the limits of my creation."
"What is this form?"
"Who am I?"
Bayon says
"The power coming from you is so potent that I'm constantly amplifying my and Katrina's power with wishes."
"You can't leave us in the dust like this."
Lolibaba says
"I know but."
She then turns to the two
Lolibaba then says
"I know both of you guys' power is great."
"Bayon, you are a wish-granting Fox."
"You can wish for anything you want."
"You've even taught your daughter how to use her wish powers effectively."
"You love her and she loves you."
Bayon then nods.
Lolibaba then goes on, now about Katrina
"Katrina, you can invent anything in the world."
"You are the smartest person I know."
"Any problem that comes up you are always prepared for it."
"Your daughter on earth, Kittryina, she's an amazing scientist who takes after you."
"She may be still young but I have seen her robots, they're amazing!"
Katrina then says
"I'll let her know you said that."
Lolibaba then says
"But me."
"Madrina."
"What have I done to help her?"
"I let her turn to the same dark past I did."
"I let her become evil."
"Another Multiverse Eater fox had to save her."
"Why didn't I save her?"
Katrina says
"That was before I was born."
"Bayon, can you give some insight?"
Bayon then responds with
"You have the records, Katrina."
Katrina then responds with
"But I can't relate to somebody who was there at the time."
Bayon nods and says
"Well, we were off fighting God."
"There wasn't anything Lolibaba could do.'
"She feels super sad over it because she thinks Madrina thinks she's a failure of a mother."
"It isn't Lolibaba's fault."
"Lolibaba, you aren't the best person but you aren't a bad person."
"Madrina loves you as Baryon loves me."
"You should be glad you have somebody to love."
"Some don't."
Lolibaba looks up and says
"Thank you."
"Let's continue."
They then walk on.
[Later…]
They ascend further, the Aftergarden's ethereal corridors becoming narrower and more surreal.
The ambient light shifts, casting eerie, shifting shadows as they approach the third to last floor. Lolibaba's golden form illuminates the path, her power palpable.
As they reach the floor, a sudden chill permeates the air.
The Aftergarden's energy seems to coalesce, focusing on a central point in the vast chamber they now find themselves in. A towering figure "materializes", composed of twisted vines and shimmering, otherworldly metal.
It's the Guardian of the Third Floor, an entity known as Metatronus.
Metatronus's voice booms, echoing through the chamber, "Intruders, you dare trespass further into the Aftergarden?
Prepare to face my wrath."
Bayon steps forward, her energy crackling around her.
Bayon says
"We've faced worse than you."
Katrina readies her plasma sword, its blue hue contrasting sharply with the dark environment.
Katrina says
"Let's do this!"
Lolibaba, still glowing in her golden form, closes her eyes for a moment.
When she opens them, they are filled with a determination sharper than ever before.
Lolibaba says
"Stand back."
As Bayon and Katrina prepare to engage, Lolibaba's hands begin to move with a fluid, almost dance-like grace.
She is tapping into the deepest recesses of her creation powers, drawing upon the very "fabric" of the Aftergarden itself.
Golden energy swirls around her, condensing into a shape that is both awe-inspiring and terrifying.
She creates a colossal construct: a dragon made of pure light and shimmering stardust.
A Metaphysical and Conceptual being that will guard Lolibaba until she de-summons him.
Its scales sparkle like galaxies, and its eyes burn with an ancient, primal fire.
Metatronus hesitates for a moment, taken aback by the sheer magnificence of Lolibaba's creation.
The dragon roars, shaking the entire floor, and launches itself at Metatronus with incredible speed as Lolibaba has given it a tiny fraction of her speed.
Bayon and Katrina can only watch in amazement as the dragon battles the Guardian.
Lolibaba's control is absolute; every move of the dragon is a reflection of her will. It lashes out with claws that can tear through Conecpts, its breath a stream of pure creation energy that dissolves the twisted vines and metal of Metatronus.
Metatronus fights back fiercely, but it is no match for the combined power of Lolibaba and her dragon.
With a final, devastating blow, the dragon engulfs Metatronus in a burst of golden light, disintegrating the Guardian into nothingness.
The chamber falls silent, save for the faint hum of Lolibaba's energy.
The dragon dissolves into particles of light, which then merge back into Lolibaba, her golden form glowing even brighter.
Katrina steps forward, placing a hand on Lolibaba's shoulder.
She then says
"That was incredible."
Bayon nodded, and her respect for Lolibaba deepened.
Bayon says
"You truly are a force to be reckoned with."
"I knew you had power but thi
s."
"You have outdone yourself."
Lolibaba smiles faintly, her eyes still glowing.
She then says quietly
"Thank you."
"Let's move on."
With the Guardian defeated, the trio continue their ascent, knowing that the final floors await them.
But now, more than ever, they believe in their ability to overcome whatever challenges lie ahead.
