Day in the Omnitrix ~ S4

The Power of Three ~ 2

*3 years ago* 

(Outside of the Russian base. The Disruption wave is closing in. Ghostfreak possesses Wildmutt, grabs Diamondhead, and flies into the base. As they fly through the hallways, the wave is still on their tail, destroying most of the base. Diamondhead puts up as many crystal walls as he can but their attempts at survival are futile, the wave then consumes them) 

*4 hours later* 

(Wildmutt wakes up covered in rubble. He's dazed, the world's smell and sounds slowly coming back. He pops up out of the rumble and looks around. He notices that the rubble didn't seem to move, but he quickly passes it off) 

Wildmutt: Ghostfreak? Diamondhead? Where are you? 

(All he can smell is the disrupted scent of the air, and the ash from all the flames. Wildmutt starts to sniff. A particular flame starts to get closer. Heatblast then stumbles in)

(Heatblast is silent, his face in shock) 

Wildmutt: What? Feedback gave you a little too much shock therapy? 

(Heatblast then grabs a rock off the ground and tosses it to Wildmutt) 

Heatblast: Catch.

(Wildmutt attempts to grab the rock, but it goes right through his hand. Wildmutt is stunned) 

Wildmutt: Heat...am I-

Heatblast: A ghost? Yes.

(Wildmutt starts to panic, attempting to grab anything within range) 

Heatblast: Mutt, calm down! 

Wildmutt: HOW THE HELL AM I SUPPOSED TO CALM DOWN, I'M A GODDAMN GHOST....freak.

(Wildmutt stops) 

Wildmutt: Ghostfreak was possessing me when the blast hit…

(Heatblast and Wildmutt stare at each other as they realize what that means. Heatblast looks down in sadness and Wildmutt puts his hands on his head in disbelief) 

Heatblast: I felt the base shaking, I knew what that meant. I tried to get to you guys, but when I opened the doors, the wave was about to hit me. Luckily, I flameported out before it could make contact. For some reason, I couldn't pop back in. I was stuck in the point between jumps, pure flames everywhere. It was beautiful.

Wildmutt: Well I'm glad you enjoyed the sight but as you can see, the rest of us didn't fare too well!

Heatblast: Hey, I tried to go back for you guys, I really did, but I couldn't do that if I was in the shit as well!

Wildmutt: (sighs) Right right, I'm sorry. I'm still trying to come to terms with all this.

Heatblast: Ghostfreak could turn his spectral form off, why can't you?

Wildmutt: I....I don't know..

(They both turn their attention to a faint sound coming from underneath the rubble) 

Wildmutt: What the hell is that? 

(Heatblast then shoots the debris away with a fire blast. Wildmutt and Heatblast look in horror at what they see. It's Diamondhead. His body is shattered, big chunks of his body are scattered in a large pile of rock. His head and half his torso are still together, but his right arm and it's pieces are completely destroyed. The points where his pieces would normally connect are covered with the black corruption energy. Heatblast and Wildmutt rush over to help him) 

Heatblast: Di, Di come on man, stay with us..

Diamondhead: (weak) The...the blast. It st....stopped me from healing. I....I don't know how long I'm gonna...
