The Forgotten Ones

Epilogue

There were hundreds of pine trees located throughout the forest. His Achilles' Heel was hidden in the open, perfectly hidden. But he never would've guessed The duo finding it. Jay used his newfound powers and morphed his hands to temporary blades. They split up and destroyed the trees, reducing them into ashes.

At the border of the clan...

"No. It can't be," Damon spoke, realizing that the pine trees had been discovered. He put his quest on hold and rushed to the forest. With each step, he felt weaker. His life force was literally being ripped away from him.

Soon, it was over. The trees were destroyed. Damon was weaker than he was before. A few hits and he's down. One blast of energy and he's dead. Alexa and Jay met at the center of the forest and proceeded to meet with Damon. Damon spotted Jay. He was walking towards him.

"You! How did you know? How did you know about the pine trees?""

"You told me. I figured it out. End of story,"

"I still don't get one thing. How did you come to know about my plans? How did you know about the Evolved?"

"Well, Alexa told me about them. What did you expect?"

"Alexa?"

Damon was confused. He thought that perhaps he had heard it wrong.

"But she is dead,"

"What? What do you mean? She's right here. Look," He said, pointing towards her. But all Damon saw was him pointing at the air.

"It can't be. I killed her, with my bare hands,"

"Stop blabbering," Jay said.

Damon, with very little strength, spawned something from thin air.

Jay became pale. His eyes looked at the spawned thing in horror.

It was Alexa's corpse. There were marks on her neck and her eyes were still open. Damon dropped the body on the ground. Jay neared the body, placing his hand on her forehead. Tears rolled down. He closed her eyes and looked back at where he saw Alexa. She wasn't there.

"Alexa," He spoke in a feeble voice. His voice cracked with sadness. It broke him.

"She put up a great fight. But in the end, the superior always wins," Damon spoke.

The sadness in Jay vanished and was replaced with rage. He moved so fast, nobody would've been able to stop him.

Damon felt an agonizing pain in his abdomen. He looked down and found a slash mark deep into his stomach. He turned back to see Jay wielding a blade of energy, and fell down on his knees, breathing his last before falling flat on the ground.

He stabbed the body again and again and again, with anger and force. Blood spread over his hands and splattered on his face.

He didn't stop.

He screamed with anger and cried in agony.

Alexa emerged and ran over to him.

"Jay. Stop. Please," She begged.

He didn't. He continued to cry. He vented his fury on the lifeless body of Damon.

"Jay, please. Stop,"

He didn't listen.

"Jay. STOP. PLEASE. THAT'S ENOUGH," She shouted and pulled him back.

"Why didn't you tell me?" He asked, still crying.

"I didn't want you to know. I didn't want you to worry. I thought I was gone forever, but my connection to the Dark Arts has trapped my Aura here," she replied with grief.

"I'm so sorry. I brought you into my life. I led you here. It's because of me you're dead,"

"No, No. Don't beat yourself up,"

She brought her hands to Jay's cheeks and wiped the tears and blood off.

"I Love you... I've always wanted to say that. From the moment I saw you, I knew you were the one. I'm so sorry it had to be this way," Jay spoke.

Alexa cried. Because she had waited long to hear the words

"I Love You".

Jay tried to hold her hand which was on his cheeks, but it phased through.

She was able to touch him, but being an aura, he cannot touch her.

"I love you too," she replied.

"I'll always be there with you. No matter what. Nothing can separate us now," She said and touched his chest, entering his heart...

Thus, after defeating Damon, they returned to the Joker Clan.

Alexa showed Jay the way to Damon's hideout. Jay decided to go to the Evolved. He grabbed the map and proceeded to exit when a person asked him.

"Sir. Where are you going?"

"I can't stay here. I'm not fit to be a ruler,"

"Sir, then who will rule us? Who will guide our people?"

"What's your name?"

"Jake,"

"Well then, I proclaim you as King Jake. You are now the king,"

"WHAT. Why me?"

"You care about your people. I can tell that,"

"Umm... Thank you, sir. But sir, where is Alexa? Didn't you two come together?"

"She's coming. Don't worry,"

Jay left. Walking through the Charr Sector, radiation didn't affect him. Alexa took care of that, becoming his shield. She was his everything. He was her prince. Their love had a rocky start, and a tragic moment. But they never stopped.

"It's a long way," Jay said.

"Well then. Let's not stop," She replied.

The Evolved...

Coming Soon...
