[Scene 1: Himothy & Mira]
Himothy and Mira sit on a grassy hill, watching the clouds drift across the sky.
Their conversation flows effortlessly, from deep thoughts to ridiculous jokes.
Mira (laughing): "Wait—so you're telling me you actually tried to fight a giant mechanical crab… with a butter knife?"
Himothy (grinning): "I had a plan, okay?"
Mira: "What was the plan?"
Himothy: "To improvise."
She bursts into laughter, shaking her head.
Mira: "You're unbelievable."
Himothy (smirking): "And yet, you love me."
Mira pauses for a second before smiling softly.
Mira (playfully): "Maybe."
Himothy chuckles, then gently leans in and kisses her. Mira melts into the embrace, wrapping her arms around him as they hold each other.
The wind blows gently around them.
They are at peace.

[Scene 2: Him & Demitra]
Him lies with his head resting on Demitra's thigh, his eyes half-lidded as she gently strokes his hair.
Him (sighing): "I could stay like this forever."
Demitra (smirking): "I don't mind. You look cute like this."
Him snorts, closing his eyes as her fingers run through his hair.
They talk for hours, about everything and nothing at all.
Eventually, Him sits up, stretching his arms.
Before he can fully stand, Demitra suddenly pulls him down by the collar and kisses him.
His eyes widen for a second before he relaxes into it, kissing her back.
When they finally part, Demitra smirks.
Demitra (teasing): "Caught you off guard, didn't I?"
Him (grinning): "Yeah, and I'm not complaining."

[Scene 3: Draco & Wednesday]
Draco and Wednesday sit across from each other, engaged in their usual playful banter.
Draco (smirking): "You call that a battle strategy? That was just reckless charging."
Wednesday (rolling her eyes): "Excuse me? Says the guy who once yelled 'DRACO SMASH' before body-slamming into a pool of water?"
Draco snickers, shaking his head.
Draco: "You'll never let that go, huh?"
Wednesday (grinning): "Never."
For a moment, the teasing fades as Draco finds himself simply staring into her eyes.
Wednesday notices, her smirk shifting into a knowing grin.
Wednesday (teasing): "You're staring, Draco."
Draco doesn't respond. Instead, he slowly reaches forward, tilting her chin up.
Wednesday's teasing stops instantly.
A faint blush creeps onto her face, her heartbeat quickening.
Then, he kisses her.
She doesn't pull away—instead, she closes her eyes and leans into it.
For the first time, she lets her guard down.

[Scene 4: MaxedInfinite & Eliana]
Eliana and MaxedInfinite sit on a couch together, simply enjoying each other's presence.
Their hands are intertwined, fingers laced together.
They talk, they laugh, and at some point, Eliana leans into his chest, her warmth comforting him.
For a moment, neither of them say anything.
Then, MaxedInfinite gently lifts her chin, looking into her violet eyes.
Without a word, he kisses her.
Eliana's breath hitches, but she quickly kisses him back, holding onto him as if she never wants to let go.
They stay like that for a while, wrapped in each other's arms.

[Scene 5: Aleph Tohu in Vinland Saga Verse]
Meanwhile, in another world…
Aleph Tohu wipes the sweat from his forehead, taking a step back to admire his small farm.
Rows of potatoes and carrots grow in neat lines.
His cottage is small but sturdy, built with his own hands.
This is his life now—simple, peaceful, quiet.
He has made friends with the villagers, helping them harvest crops and repair homes.
For the first time, he feels human.
He breathes in the fresh air and whispers to himself:
Aleph Tohu (softly): "I think… I like it here."
The scene lingers on him for a moment before shifting back to the Voyagers.

Mira & Himothy share another kiss.
Him & Demitra hold each other close.
MaxedInfinite & Eliana cuddle, lost in each other's warmth.
Draco & Wednesday gaze into each other's eyes before sharing another deep, meaningful kiss.
The pain of the past is still there, but for now…
They are happy.
The scenery slowly pulls away as they laugh together, the stars shining brightly above them.
The scenery fades to black.

A new chapter begins, filled with love, healing, and hope.
Narrator :
And so, dear reader, time moves forward.
Eight months have passed. Eight months of sorrow, healing, and learning how to live again. The wounds may not be gone, but they no longer bleed. The memories of Kael Eel remain, lingering like echoes in the wind, but they no longer haunt.
For Mira, Eliana, Wednesday, and Demitra, grief once felt like an endless storm—a tempest that threatened to consume them. But now, the storm has passed, leaving behind a sky that is not free of clouds but still holds the promise of sunlight. They have found happiness again.
Himothy and Mira laugh together, their love growing stronger with every shared moment.
Him and Demitra bask in quiet intimacy, where words are not always needed to convey emotion.
Draco and Wednesday dance between banter and vulnerability, their bond deeper than ever.
MaxedInfinite and Eliana have found comfort in each other's presence, no longer drowning in sorrow but embracing the warmth of love.
They have survived, and now… they are living.
And then, there is Aleph Tohu.
The man once feared across the multiverse now stands among simple farmers, his hands calloused not from war but from tending the land. No more battles. No more cosmic conflicts. Just soil, sweat, and the satisfaction of a hard day's work.
Is this redemption? Or merely an escape?
Perhaps even he does not know.
But for now, he is content. And sometimes, contentment is the closest thing to peace.
So, dear reader, as one chapter of tragedy closes, another chapter of hope begins. The past may never be forgotten, but the future?
The future is theirs to write.
