This is my grand design.

Jhin's heart stopped, and he died without a last word to anybody.

Angel's horrid pain could be felt by everyone. Her energy crashed over the entire arena, save for the forcefield which prevented it from traveling through toward Raxen. It expanded from her body in great yellowish waves, her sorrow, and her feelings of failure filling everyone's hearts and minds. What strange power was this?

Whisper looked down at her hands, remembering the red orb she'd snatched from Cosmic's body. These hands, these clawed, demon hands, had ended his life.

Jhada set his weapon down, and took off his mask, it falling to the ground beside it. "What have I done?" He asked, the feeling of deep regret in his heart. He felt swallowed with sorrow, pain, and darkness. Jhin's clone wandered over towards where Angel sat sobbing loudly over the fallen killer's body.

"GET AWAY!" She screeched, Whisper appearing beside them now too. Jhin wake up. I need you. How will you ever continue your work if you're dead? Don't leave me.

"You two... you two are pure fuckin' evil." Cree gasped beneath his breath, a massive wolf beast appearing behind him. It de-formed and sat beside him, Umbra's naked humanoid form sitting there seconds later.

"Why'd you have to go and kill him. Now we all have to feel like shit." Umbra said, almost having feeling behind those words.

Whisper looked at her companion, sadness in her eyes. "This could have been you..." She whispered to him.

Jhada rubbed his eyes, a single tear showing itself through his evil fixture. "Forgive me. For I have truly made a mistake." He said, almost crying now. "But they killed Joel. He was like family to us too."

Cree looked over towards them. "Joel's not dead." He frowned at them.

Jhada looked confused. "But I saw your dog he-"

Cree felt anger. "They came in during the fight and took him out of here after Umbra put him on his back. He isn't even dead. You killed our companion though, that man was worth a lot more then you or the rest of you copies." For once Cree was the one doing the bullying.

"You guys can go fuck yourselves. Should have been you." Umbra growled, getting to his feet. He was without energy, so he just wandered to the wall of the arena, and angrily punched it a few times, remembering Star in the process. "There is NOTHING good here in this wretched place!" He cried out, another wave of yellow energy passing through him.

Whisper crossed her legs, and sat in front of Jhin, and the miserable Angel. She put her clawed hands to either side of his face, and looked up at the albino. "Please, allow me." She said softly, her dark hair spilling over her shoulders as she leaned forwards.

Angel could barely see through her tears, and just watched in blurs as Whisper attempted to help curate the situation. She noticed the orb of light that had appeared from earlier, having returned once again hovering over Jhin's body.
