Planet Zero Volume 4: The Symbol Of Fear

Eclipse Of The World

It has been 2 years since Jackie and Harmony began their training with Harmony's allies from the Saiyanverse, and the day of Kuro's arrival on the moon was here. Kuro was floating above the moon with a smile on her face. "Nowhere left to run, Harmony Swan!" Frieza was floating next to Kuro, and his eyes widened in shock when he saw Jackie standing next to Harmony. "You said that she was dead, Kuro!" Kuro smirked, and she ordered Frieza to fight Jackie all by himself. "What?!" Kuro kicked him in the back, sending him flying towards Jackie, who was ready to finish off her old enemy. Harmony's eyes glowed as she kicked Kuro in the gut, knocking the wind out of her. "Your grief blinds you. Natsumi Pyre was the one who asked to come here to kill Himiko Pyre. All of that rage clouds your judgement, and that is why you will lose." Harmony kicked Kuro back again, and she snapped her fingers, causing the entirety of the moon to shake, as Pyre's corpse was pulled towards her using the Core Of Finality. Kuro was sent flying again after a massive explosion was caused when Harmony and Pyre's bodies began to fuse. When the smoke cleared, Harmony was now in her Supreme Honkai God form, powered by the Core Of Finality. Her hair was much longer, and her body was covered in what looked like a futuristic mechanical suit. She was also just as big as the moon itself. "I will not let you destroy my home!" A giant beam of blue light shot out of the giant blue horn on Harmony's head, hitting Kuro before she even had time to react to this attack. Kuro growled, and she unleashed a massive flurry of attacks using the Core Of The End. Harmony gasped, not expecting this attack, but she was caught off guard when the attacks were deflected back at Kuro by a flurry of arrows shot by someone that she could not see. "Hiii!~" Kuro turned around to see that Elysia and Ellie arrived in their Herscherr forms. "I should have known that you would come to save your precious Honkai God....Pathetic...." Kuro growled as she prepared to fight against all of the current timeline's Herscherrs.

Jackie and Frieza were locked in an extreme and brutal fight to the death on the surface on the moon. While Frieza was struggling to fight back, Jackie activated her Noble Phantasm, using her old mask to enhance her strength and her agility. If Kuro would have tried to look on the moon to see if Frieza was winning, she would not be able to see through the fog that was summoned from Jackie's Noble Phantasm. "Kuro told me about your weakness....Your failure to protect that worthless goddess from Liyue....What was her name again?" This was enough to enrage Jackie, who began to attack Frieza even harder than she did earlier. "You are weak, just like her! Just like Guizhong!" Jackie began to laugh at Frieza, confusing him. "What is so funny?" Jackie pulled out a Gnosis from her chest, and Frieza recognised it as the Gnosis of Guizhong. "Didn't you know? Guizhong is one of my past lives....And this is a remnant of her soul...." Jackie absorbed the Gnosis, transforming into a fusion of Guizhong's Archon War form and Jackie's Herscherr Of Origin form. "What are you?...." Frieza was not fighting anymore. For some reason, he was actually curious about this new form. "Hm....Fine. I will entertain you for a moment. When I absorbed Guizhong's Gnosis, my body fused with the soul of the God Of Dust. I am both Jacqueline Scarlet and Guizhong Dracul at the same time. Why are you asking me this? We are supposed to be enemies." Frieza did not respond straight away, because he was crossing his arms, thinking about what Jackie said to him. To show that the fight was over, Frieza transformed out of his golden form, and back into his normal form.

Kuro looked down at the moon, enraged by Frieza's betrayal. She was unable to punish him, because she was being kept away from the moon and Planet Zero by the army of Herscherrs which were being led by Harmony Swan, the Herscherr Of Finality. Harmony levitated the largest ship in Kuro's fleet in her hands, and she ripped it apart using the Core Of Finality. "I am not going to kill you, Kuro." Harmony plunged her hand through Kuro's chest, using her power to purify Kuro's heart, removing the darkness that was fueling her grief and her desire for vengeance. She healed Kuro's injuries, and she smiled at Kuro. "Before you leave, I have one final gift for you." Harmony held her hand out, and a small orb of light began to form on her palm. Once the light disappeared, Natsumi Pyre was revealed, asleep on Harmony's hand. "You did not deserve to lose your mother because of another person's mistakes. Before we part ways, I want you to promise that Natsumi Pyre is protected." Kuro nodded her head, her tears streaming down her cheeks as she picked Natsumi up, before she teleported herself and Natsumi to her home on Planet Zero. Harmony transformed back into her normal Herscherr Of Finality form, and she flew towards her mother. "This is where we part ways, mother. Thank you for allowing me to do this." Jackie was tearing up, and Frieza asked Harmony what she was about to do. "I am sealing the Honkai on the moon with me. This means that I will be stuck on the moon forever. 90 percent of all Honkai energy will be sealed away, weakening all of the Herscherrs in this timeline. I know that we used to be enemies, Frieza, but I have a request for you." To Harmony's surprise, Frieza said that he didn't mind hearing what she wanted him to do for her. "Protect my mother. Keep her safe." Frieza nodded his head, and he flew to Planet Zero with Jackie, the other Herscherrs, and Harmony's allies from the Saiyanverse. A single tear went down Harmony's cheek, and she raised both of her hands, using the power of all of the Herscherr cores to create a massive field of energy around the moon, created from a combination of the Core Of Finality and the Core Of Binding. She watched as the moon became infested by the Honkai Beasts that once infested the lands of Planet Zero, but she was caught off guard when she felt someone placing their hand on her shoulder. "Hello, Harmony." Himiko Pyre was alive again, but she was back in her normal form, with a few small remnants of her old power being the white scales on her hands and her legs. "You are not going to fight against the Honkai by yourself. I am going to be here for you." Himiko Pyre hugged Harmony, and she promised that she would never be alone again. Now that Harmony Swan made the ultimate sacrifice, Planet Zero was finally at peace. The world was safe again.
