Sehki compared it to a tug of war against the relentless lion: coming so close.
And the thought of Flint, unable to reach him just like before.
Except this time, the splitting image of his brother was standing next to him.
"Flint?"
Next to him were mirages of Valencia, Gerald, and Shonda. To his right were the other heirs egging him on while the real ones were yelling at him to end this already. Behind him were all of the Shadow Brawlers, and his birth parents.
Calypsa's head tilted over to him.
"Awnh, all your growth and you still need my help?"
"But you're-"
"We started this year together, and that's how we'll end it. Only I'm allowed to break you, not this overgrown cat."
He tried to touch her but his hand passed through her body as she and everyone else stretched their arms with him.
He laughed. "Alright," attaching his grip to the staff in Lumin's chest, taking his roar face first. "Let's show him how a true kings protects their people!"
He pulled as hard as he could, as the visions continued to smile. He used the weapon as a medium to swallow up the essence of the three Horrorscopes and Regal Void, yanking and erasing theirs, Lumin, Twin, and Ram's spaced themed skin, reverting them to humanoid fae.
Ram dashed to chokehold Lumim to the ground, while Twin was about to fall back when Sehki mustered enough strength in his finger for his silhouette to catch them to gently fall on top of him.
He pulled off their hood.
"Seriously, I was actually worried you died! You kept another secret from me?"
Twin's real identity voice chuckled, caressing, hugging him, so they were laying side by side.
"Because I knew you could do it, my brave shadow of hope."
He sighed. "Are you actually in love with me or in love with messing with me."
"Can't I be both for the rest of our lives?"
"After you help me figure out how you were both an ally and terrorist playing both sides!"
"Well we can have a long, deep, thorough discussion about that," she teased
But the other two Astrovoids were butting heads, knocking off both Ram's hoods.
"Professor Delta?"
"We were fighting for the same goal. Our alli-"
"Both wanted fae and Void kind to be saved by Ophiuchus' resurrections. Not to let the Voids command humanity, condemned to a fate of endless violence and malice."
As the Cusp Central militia and several health and governmental vehicles approached the scene, Sehki had this to ask Lumin.
"Where is my brother?"
He snickered. "The next time you reunite, you'll regret ever finding him."
Sehki crouched down to his now former principal.
"If I find out you laid a finger on him, this school and your void powers won't be the only place I'll expel you from," granting him a shadow enhanced fist to the face and kicking him into a police car.
The officer who helped him out against Taylor jumped out of the car, alongside several others handcuffing and strapping his arms and legs together.
"Wait, where's the Chameleon Void?"
Calypsa blew the body of the person upwards to catch the fae, pulling up her cloak to show her chest, and the Altar mark faded.
"He's fine. Meet your parent's advisor, my other mentor, and your adoptive cousin, Wali Leontis."
Sehki leaned down and massaged his spiky green hair, his natural black skin covered in bruises and his outfit tattered beyond repair.
"The one who held onto my magic for that long? Wali, nice to meet you. I'll make sure you wake up."
"It'll take some time. Lumin got to him long before I could."
"Wait, can you use Coma to invade his memories and find out abo-"
"It might take some time, and even if we can outwit his ability to repel, there's a chance he's not working alone."
"Wait, can Cusp Central hold him? He's super dangerous."
"Oh don't worry," as a higher tier set of hi-tech copters in the shape of a metallic dragonfly hovered amongst everyone. Ladders dropped, followed by personnel of officials surrounding the entire vicinity.
As it lowered, a woman wearing an admiral cap, a bang that covered her hair, a twig in her mouth, and an military cape with icicles not even melted lept off, crashing the entire ground with her entrance, pushing the three of them back.
"The Justice Council will handle it."
The Cusp Central milita all raised their hands in salute of her arrival, a Fenghuang native potentially born in either Umbra or Shugoda with a high assortment of weapons each with their own StellArt symbols on them, approaching Lumin.
"This has reached beyond an incident the four," briefly nodding Sehki's acceptance, "potentially five kingdoms, can contain. Under martial law, we will take full priority," seeking the medical transports and other vehicles approaching. "My men, and CC, protect the safety and security of all scholars, staff, and first responders under all circumstances."
"Ma'am, yes, ma'am!"
Even Damien came out of Sehki's clothes to admire her presence.
"Now, then, Delta, and Calypsa, phase one of our agreement is complete. Shall we move on towards phase two?"
The news reporters went down because a glare from her got them to wait in peace but Calypsa blocked Delta's path.
"Wait, I just need to fill Sehki on a few more details."
"For logistics or personal amorous reasons?"
"He deserves to know the same as you, Admiral. Besides, after today, he'll have one less person around to make sure he's our asset than our enemy."
"There should be no doubts if Shakuheld's offspring won't fall into Void temptation."
Delta asked Sehki to look up, showing him a mask that resembles Hague's.
"You're?"
"I apologize for not retrieving your brother back then. But-"
"You saved one of our lives. Will you help me find him?"
"Naturally," turning him to Calypsa, flying him far away from everyone.
"Let's talk."
