The world was never the same after that day.

Humanity learned that they weren't alone in the universe, but that wasn't something they had the time to worry about.

Their realization was accompanied by catastrophe.

Creatures beyond their wildest imaginations poured down from the sky and appeared from the earth. They slaughtered humans as if it was their singular purpose, driving them to the brink of extinction.

The people of the world did everything in their power, developing unique traits and technologies to create a united front their enemies couldn't penetrate. 

They secured victories and repopulated, feeling as if they stood a chance against the foreign invaders. 

They fought and they fought, doing everything they possibly could to ensure their survival.

Until the Great Calamities appeared. 

In front of them, humanity was nothing regardless of its efforts.

One by one, the worlds were turned into piles of rubble in between the cracks of their teeth. Civilization was torn apart, and the evolved humans living within could do nothing to stop its collapse. 

Humanity itself was left extinct, and in the end, only a single man was left alive amidst the chaos. 

Why?

For what reason were they punished so? 

Nobody knew why the attacks began in the first place.

He looked into the distance at the memories of the past and firmed his resolve. 

“It can only be me.”

He knew of a miracle that could return him to the place of those memories.

He knew of a way to make the wheels of time spin in reverse. 

And using it, he alone would save humanity from its doomed fate. 

That was his sacred duty as its final survivor.

The zephyr returned the day after their final duel. It was expected. They scheduled their final duel the day before on purpose.

It landed in the morning before either of them was properly awake, but Raymond intentionally had the pilots disable stealth so the roaring of its engines would wake them up.

Naturally, they scrambled out of bed and rushed to put their clothes on, heading outside to see what was causing the commotion.

They were greeted by Raymond and Natalia, waiting in their signature position at the top of the ramp up to the cargo bay.

"Missed us?" Raymond asked with a grin.

"Hell no!" Jax replied with the same expression.

"I was actually crying last night because my vacation is ending. You should ask Gio. He was complaining because he couldn't sleep."

It was a completely fabricated story. They couldn't even hear each other through the walls of their tents which were more like mobile homes.
