A Warrior's Farewell
The End of Zero – A Warrior's Farewell
The Battlefield – A War Reaching Its End
> FWOOOOOOOSH!
The air was thick with power.
Mri stood tall, his Darkened Aura roaring around him like an untamed beast.
Zero emerged from the debris, his body damaged but his blank red eyes still glowing. His body twitched—he felt pain, something he wasn't supposed to feel.
Mri clenched his fists, stepping forward.
> "This ends now."
Zero didn't respond. He couldn't.
His body moved on instinct—on programming—on the chains of control that bound him.
But this time, he wasn't the only one moving.
Mri was faster. Stronger. Unstoppable.
> BOOM!
Zero lunged forward, his fist coated in his burning yellow aura—
Mri caught it.
The impact shattered the ground beneath them, but Mri didn't move an inch.
Zero tried to pull away—but Mri's grip tightened.
> CRACK!
A shockwave ripped through the battlefield as Mri twisted Zero's arm and slammed him into the ground.
Zero's body bounced off the earth, but Mri wasn't finished.
He lifted Zero into the air—
> BOOOOOOM!
A devastating punch landed on Zero's chest, sending him crashing deep into the ground.
The battlefield fell silent.
Zero lay there, unmoving, his body twitching slightly.

The Final Blow
Mri exhaled, his aura flickering wildly.
He knew this was his last chance.
His Darkened Aura surged to its maximum limit.
Lightning crackled. The ground trembled.
He raised his fist one last time.
Zero, despite everything, tried to stand.
But it was too late.
> "Goodbye, Zero."
Mri vanished.
And then—
> BOOOOOOOOOOM!
A single, earth-shattering punch landed on Zero's core, piercing through the chains that held him.
Zero's yellow aura exploded outward—
And then began to fade.
His body trembled.
For the first time…
His red eyes dimmed.
His mind—
> Was free.

The Memories Return
> Drip. Drip. Drip.
Blood pooled beneath Zero's fallen body.
His breaths were ragged. Shallow. Weak.
Mri stepped back, watching as Zero's blank eyes suddenly changed.
> They were no longer empty.
Something flickered within them—
> Memories.
> The past.
Zero's fingers twitched. His body trembled.
And then…
A single tear slipped down his bruised face.
> "Roy..."
Mri froze.
That name—
> Roy Himawari.
That was his real name.
A broken whisper escaped Zero's lips.
> "Sister... Brother..."
He remembered.
He remembered everything.
His life. His struggles. The pain. The betrayal. The day he lost everything.
The day he was turned into this.
Mri knelt beside him.
> "Zero..."
But Zero shook his head.
His eyes softened.
For the first time—
He looked at Mri not as an enemy.
> But as an old friend.
> "Thank you..."
His voice was barely above a whisper.
And then—
> His eyes slowly closed.
---
The End of Zero
The battlefield fell silent.
Mri watched as Zero's aura finally faded.
His body stopped moving.
The war was over.
Zero—
> Roy Himawari—was gone.
Mri clenched his fists, his Darkened Aura slowly fading.
The others began to stir, waking up, realizing what had happened.
But Mri didn't move.
He simply sat there.
Watching.
Remembering.
> Zero had finally been freed.
> And now… he could rest.

The Aftermath – A Warrior's Farewell
As the sun rose over Dibrugarh, the city was quiet.
The battle was over.
But the scars would remain forever.
Mri stood in front of a small grave, freshly dug.
A simple marker was placed at the top.
> Roy Himawari
A Brother. A Fighter. A Lost Soul.
Mri sighed, his hands trembling.
Jasmine stood beside him, placing a hand on his shoulder.
> "He was strong."
Mri nodded.
> "Yeah… he was."
The wind carried away the last traces of battle.
And for the first time in a long time—
> Mri felt something deep inside him.
Not anger.
Not pain.
Not revenge.
>Peace
