"TAKE THIS!" Veyle shouted. The villains were finally defeated and were too injured to fight. Soon they fled from the scene as the heroes took a moment to breathe.
Alear sighed, "That's the last of the villains, now what do we do?!" The heroes looked at Alear and then at each other in silence. Chrom stepped forward and took a deep breath.
"We open the portal to the Netherworld ourselves, we still have a shot at getting Byleth and making sure he doesn't get his hands on the crown," Chrom announced.
Ivy questioned, "Are you going to be doing it here?"
"We have no choice, but we will get to them, I know we will," Ivy hesitated a little and then fully nodded. "We will be back, and we will make sure Elusia castle isn't used as a place to open the gateway to the Netherworld. We promise you."
Chrom turned around and then got his hands ready. The heroes watched as he slowly opened the portal to the Netherworld. It was that easy, the portal was open.
"We will be off now!" Kirby cheered. One by one the heroes jumped through the portal and then soon Chrom followed after. They all landed as Chrom took a bit of time to close the portal.
Alcryst muttered, "This is the Netherworld... floating islands, floating buildings... grayscale... just as I expected it would look like... this place is terrifying."
"This place is... interesting yet empty..." Celica muttered. Then she spotted a little building worm walking by. It didn't do anything but it was... strange, what was that? "There's unique bugs around here..."
Chrom muttered, "Yeah, from what I read the insects here are Lava Magmas, Building worms, electric guarders and most importantly... the enhanced maggots."
"M-MAGGOTS?!" Celica asked while terrified. Chrom nodded as Celica looked down at herself. She was beyond terrified to hear about that. "Let's... just hurry up before we die!"
Chrom sighed, "I don't see the castle anywhere..." The heroes looked around the area and then Alcryst noticed something moving in the distance.
Alcryst asked, "W-What... is that?!" The heroes looked over and in the sky there was a unique dragon flying around the area.
"That's a tamer dragon, shoot if we're spotted we're going to be it's meal... It's eaten humans before. It doesn't care... we need to hurry," Chrom muttered. The heroes nodded as they jumped onto the rocks. Carefully avoiding the tamer dragon.
Alear sighed, "So it eats humans... how... wonderful..."
"If we don't get spotted we're fine," Chrom sighed. The heroes looked over and soon spotted themselves very close to the building worms. "Gods..."
Kirby asked while giggling nervously, "So... do they eat us?"
"Everything thing would eat us if we're not careful, try not to disturb them," Chrom replied as he jumped onto the next rock.
Celica asked, "E-Everything?" Chrom nodded and soon Celica found herself nearly fainting. Alear caught her as they continued jumping on the rocks. Celica struggled to get back into reality and soon they were able to follow her. Soon Chrom spotted a castle up ahead.
"There it is, we have to hurry..." Chrom said as he pointed up to the castle. The heroes looked over and then nodded. One by one they followed Chrom over to the castle. Right as they arrived they spotted the lava magmas all over the building.
Celica asked, "What are those ones..."
"Lava Magmas," Celica looked at them and noticed one of them nearly landed on her head. "Don't touch them, they will burn you." Celica walked slightly backward as the rest of the heroes looked around the Netherworld.
Veyle muttered, "One thing is for sure, if I don't ever want to be banished here... speaking of, there doesn't appear to be anyone here?"
"That's only because the Netherworld was forgotten about as time went on, Zethus and Zehira were the only ones here, it was going to happen one way or another. This place of banishment, forgotten," Chrom described. The heroes looked at him and then back at the castle.
Shez sighed, "We need to get ourselves ready, they could be getting their hands on the crown. We need to be fully prepared when we enter that place." The heroes nodded as each of them got ready to enter the castle. One by one each of the heroes took out their weapons as they stood in front of the doors.
"Okay... let's do this everyone, we can stop them before it's too late," Chrom mumbled. The heroes looked at one another and then nodded. Soon together they kicked the door open and all dashed in. They looked around and soon saw there was... nobody?
Alear asked, "Did we get the wrong castle?!"
"There's only one castle in the Netherworld?! This has to be the right one! I'm certain of it!" Chrom yelled. Then soon they heard footsteps. They all looked over and saw Byleth smiling down at them.
Byleth laughed, "I've been waiting for you heroes to finally arrive..." The heroes stared up at him. Realizing that... they were just too late...
