Now that we're teleported to Morpheus's location, where the battle ground is. A brigade of soldiers is waiting for us by the avenue along the riverside. They are pointing their guns towards us, as if they are expecting us to be here at any moment. "I've been expecting all of you!" Morpheus said. "I'm surprised that you're all able to destroy all of my clones. But I'll make sure this will be your last moments in life." The soldiers suddenly fired all of their weapons towards us. Right on that moment when I thought we're all going to die, from that brief moment, I heard someone said, "I won't let you!" then my sword flamed up and created a giant tornado made out of fire faster than the speed of sound, engulfing all of us inside that blasted through the sky while it shoots out huge meteorite sized fireballs from the sky, destroying the formation of the soldiers along with the buildings, while disintegrating all of their bullets on the process. Then a few seconds later, while we're engulfed inside the flames, time suddenly stopped as if it were intentional. "What happened?" Sam asked me.

"I don't know." I replied, "I'm sure none of us can stop time."

"So, who's doing this?" Hunter asked.

"I did!" Someone said, and we all heard it. Then a few seconds later, a blue smoke came out from the eye of my sword going down to the tip and materialized a beautiful woman with gorgeous icy blue eyes, long wavy red hair, red lips and a pale white skin. And she's wearing an all-white Victorian style dress that fits her perfectly. "Who are you?" I asked in shock.

"I am the original archangel of fire. I'm Uriel. And it's nice to meet you all." Then Uriel shown her red colored wings. "Wait, Uriel's a girl?" Toby asked.

"Indeed." Uriel replied.

"I thought Uriel's a guy."

"History isn't always accurate."

"I've always thought that there's something inside Lahat Chereb that protects us from harm, and my thoughts are correct. Your existence validates it."

"You're quite perceptive, Zack. No wonder they chose you among thousands of people to finally put Morpheus's chapter to an end."

"But why me? And why show yourself only now?

"All I can say is that they might have chosen you because your compatible with me. You'll burn right away if you're not compatible with this power. And I'm also hoping that you could help me be free in this prison that Samael created for me."

"Why were you imprisoned in this sword?"

"Samael's very much obsessed with the power of fire on how it can destroy and create life just like how his light works. He asked me if I could lend my powers to him and join the rebellion against the gods. Because he only wanted equality, but I don't want what he's proposing. When I said no and told him that I will tell the God's about his plan, he imprisoned me in the orb inside your sword so no one will know about his plans. Have you ever thought why the sword is extremely powerful?"

"Well I've learned that Samael merged the dwarves power to his so he can create a sword so powerful that it can cut though time and space."

"You're correct. But only I can stop time using this power, because he merged the dwarves power with mine and his divine light to create a sword so powerful that it can, not only ignite a bright blue flame but can also cut through space and time."

"If the gods are all that powerful, why can't they free you from the prison that Samael did?

"Because only the chosen one can break the stone. And none of the gods can free me from what Samael did."
