"Gonner? Gonner, are you there? Get me out of here! C'mon, I know it's you! Listen, I'm not angry anymore. No more rocks, that's a promise. Just open the box, please," Isis begged as the three snuck into the room.
"Oh, Isis," Dixie said after looking into the box.
"Don't be alarmed," Nebulosa said, making me jump back. "She's with me."
"Dixie, Cima!" Isis cried.
"Leave her alone!" Dixie and Cima said.
"Give me the Azoth or she's going for a swim!" Nebulosa threatened.
"Wait a sec, Nebulosa," Dixie said, stepping forward. "Alright!"
"No, don't give it to her," Gonner begged as the two connected the heart.
"It's what we have to do," Cima said quietly and calmly.
The two walked up to Nebulosa cautiously as Isis hung by her wrist above the lava. One slip of Nebulosa's hand and Isis would be gone.
"Please, don't hurt her," Dixie said as the sisters walked up to her.
"Join me, and we can use the power of the Azoth to avenge all of the justice committed against us," Nebulosa offered, holding out her hand. "We'll reopen the portal! You can return to your life and punish your enemies, and... your mother."
"No, don't do it," Gonner whispered.
"Give us Isis," Cima said boldly, glaring at the woman in front of her.
"First?" Nebulosa taunted. "The Azoth."
"I said it once, and I'm going to say it one more time. Let her go," Cima said lowly.
"No! The Azoth," Nebulosa refused.
Dixie and Cima held each part in their hands, ready to break it in two if it was necessary. They held it out to Nebulosa, and she grasped it. Nebulosa threw Isis aside and Cima took on her dark demeanor.
"Run!" Dixie said to Isis.
"Gonner, protect her!" Cima added.
"Let go," Nebulosa growled. "What are you doing?"
She held the two girls over the river of lava. Cima refused to let go. She would die. "Don't you realize that sacrificing yourself is useless?"
"Not when you're trying to save the mortal world from destruction," Cima replied snarkily.
"We won't let you destroy the planet!" Dixie added. "Everything we love is there."
"Except something here," Cima added under her breath, but just enough for Gonner to hear.
"The world will remain a miserable place, and your problems will never disappear," Nebulosa continued.
"That's when you try to make the most of it," Cima groaned.
Daylight flooded in through the space, making Cima smirk. Daybreak. They had prevented Vitriol's prophecy. Nebulosa held the two girls up and the Azoth glowed brightly. Orange electricity crackled around it. They were going to die knowing they saved the world.
"No, Dixie! Cima!" Isis said as they got into a safer area.
"Oh, treasure," Gonner said sadly.
Sunlight completely filled the room as a portal showed. Cima looked over and Gonner and he gave her a pleading look. He made a promise that he didn't want to live out.
"Go!" Cima yelled as her breath shorted out.
"I love you!"
