Jordan and his friends decided to go home after their little journey in space, although his vision about Shadow Mist caused him to go in the Mothership by accident, as they got off the ship Jordan's headaches even more seeing the vision about what will happen next, He told the others to hide after that. They all hid but Lynn didn't she came to him and asked him "Are you okay Jordan" Jordan didn't want her to know what he just saw so he lied "Yeah... I'm good" Lynn grabbed his hand and insisted that they should talk while no one's around. Ashura finally entered the ship unnoticed by guards, but he couldn't find Jordan and his friends, he heard Apollo and Saturn whispering from behind he realized that they must've followed him to Find Jordan. Apollo tells him not to worry, Saturn observed the army in the ship and came up with a plan. She instructed Apollo and herself to distract the agents, since they are more elite than the Zenith Troops, for Ashura to find Jordan and his friends, but Ashura refused said "I will fight him" Apollo and Saturn were shocked and they told him that he will die but Ashura replied with all of his courage "I cannot beat Shadow Mist but I can hold him long enough to get the kids and you two to leave the ship" he took two step away from Apollo and Saturn, and just before he left he said his last words "Forgive me Fuyu" Back with Jordan and Lynn, he told her everything he sees in his vision, Lynn didn't understood what he was saying but realized that he was hurt "Just calm down we can make it out" She lend a hand as she replied positively "together" Jordan sighs and he was ready to do what he must, few moments later, he sees Lucinda, Zain and Jay sneaking to the vent he suspected something odd about them, Jordan made one clone of himself and ran to the vent Lynn followed him and asked "Where are you going?" Jordan tells her that he will just see where the guardians went Lynn made a clone of herself with her energy and came with him "I can do that too" she noted, Jordan sighed and gestured Lynn to follow him quietly inside a vent. They crawled in each direction, one by one, and fell to the prison, Jordan helped Lynn get up and later looks at the prison cells, the bars are made of laser. Infront of them they saw Lucinda, Zain and Jay trying to break them free by finding a way to shut it down without any noise, Lynn Jordan decided to help but Zain forbid them to do so. Meanwhile Hunter planned and instructed each of them, soon Casper whispered at Terran's ear in complaint as he finished "I'm okay controlling the guards but not when Sid is around" Terran started mouthing his words thus motivating him "Have some faith man" Casper disagreed to, but when Sid stared at him in confusion, he blushed and looked away. Ashura walked in the hallway quietly to the throne room as the door opens automatically, he saw his apprentice sitting casually on the throne, then he appeared right behind Ashura and removed his mask, revealing his real face, Ashura was frightened to see his real face. A person who was none other than his own son Ven. "We meet again, father" Ashura didn't look back he just stands still, and remained calm and tough going towards his son "This has to stop son" Ven's smile disappeared as he learned something from his own father, then he spoke "Oh does it?" Ven's anger grew more but he hasn't released them yet, he simply keeps remaining calm. "You may be a good father and teacher, but you're a bad Liar" he firmly replied, and then he explains to his father as he stood up from his throne "Initially I was supposed to kill your newest pupil. But all that has changed since you are against me. You see, after the death of my brother, I realize how corrupt the galaxy was and sought to destroy the remaining cruelty of this, even killing the old guardians if I have to. Back then I was a fool for trusting that Order and now I've risen above it. I even become what you could never be father."

Ashura had no reaction to what Ven discovered so he tried to be reasonable "I know what I have done that cursed you to be the very beast the world has ever feared ,and I am truly sorry for that, but this isn't what even your son wanted. Ven, you could still fix this not alone anymore, but together, before it's too late. "As soon as he took one look at Ashura's eyes he realized his fears "Forgive me father, for our bond never had to end like this." he vanished and took Ashura with him to a demolished town who he once called It home, Ashura remembered the castle which he destroyed along with his cruel Father the king, suddenly the ground rumbles and the black spikes that came out nearly hit him luckily Ashura jumped up. He took one glare at Ven, and witnessed his black energy flowing on him, next he decided to get payback by blasting fire at him although Ven jumped and throws huge asteroids, luckily Ashura broke all of them with just his hand, once Ven disappeared he noticed that he used them as bait and blast his blue flames at him from behind to avoid him from attacking, later he observes the fire as it surrounded Ven to burn him alive, he felt like he won, but he know she didn't when the flame got smaller, soon his eyes widen realizing that Ven absorbed all of the flame, the blood mark spread from his head to his arms then he vanished quickly and attacked Ashura from above. Concurrently Hunter and Terran snuck inside the control room to sabotage it, he attempted to shut the ship down, but their plan failed when Galaxia interfered, Terran flew towards her, and he was easily pinned down. Hunter instantly grabs Galaxia to stop her from killing Terran. No matter how hard they fought Galaxia in hand-to-hand combat, she quickly beaten them both, she lays her sword at Hunter and said with her confidence "It's over traitor" Hunter's aura grew with his anger and once he yelled "You're the traitor!" he walks slowly to her, Galaxia's confidence on her face disappeared and walk backwards. Then his words struck her heart "I used to think you're my best friend" Galaxia ran fast and tackled him, Hunter fought back and pinned her on the wall, then she vanished and blow one punch at him, Hunter blocked it and suddenly they vanished. Terran was relief he didn't get hurt but he was confused until he saw the photo of Hunter and Galaxia as kids it made him remember his friendship with Jenny. Casper and Sid where being chased by Zenith troops who kept shooting, both of them hidebehind the boxes so the squad won't find them Sid didn't want to hide so she decided to fight of the troops, Casper yelped as she stands up "What are you doing" Sid replied with self-confidence "I'm done hiding" she walks straight to the troops Casper tried to stop her so she stopped walking Sid looked back just to see him one last time and ran into the troops she manipulated her phantom powers gave them a hard fight by shutting the lights down the Zenith troops looked around and spot nothing in the dark lucky for them they have night vision goggles, so they all put it on Casper gasped and controlled their bodies like a puppet. He knocked them unconscious, and the power went back on, Commander HexaCrom noticed that they are in the ship, so he contacted Galaxia, but she lost signal because she was battling Hunter in space, then they both witnessed the two large constellation Leviathans fighting each other blow after blow. 

HexaCrom then pressed the emergency button he yelled to every place in the mothership "All troops the intruders are inside the ship find them and execute them!" all the Zenith troops split up run to different rooms Jordan and Lynn heard the alarm from the surveillance cameras, then Zain broke it with his bare hands, the door opens, and the squad spotted them "It's the intruders! Open fire!" they began shooting and the beams suddenly stopped when Lucinda's eyes glow the troops analyzes her weakness but there were none, the beams came right back at them, and they died quickly. Jordan closed his eyes, holds all their hands and teleported them away from the ship except Lynn, she strongly tells him that they should run Jordan as well agreed and they located their friends first before leaving. Ashura gave Ven a hard fight, but it didn't last long when Ven's constellation disappeared, and he destroyed Ashura's with just one beam coming out of his left hand then he released huge shadow binds and trap Ashura. Jordan and Lynn finally got their friends out of the ship and brought them to the escape pod Apollo and Saturn are in, all of them got inside except Jordan, as he watches Ashura struggle to break the bind around him, his Aura flows from the bind itself to Ven's hand Jordan couldn't stand seeing Ven's smile, so he went to him with full speed, but Lynn held him back, once Ven drained the entire energy everything went blurry in Ashura's eyes and said his last word "Son" his eyes shut slowly and his body starts fading Ven's smile disappeared and all he saw left of Ashura were nothing but stardust he shed a tear and realized "I killed my own father" 

Jordan cries as he failed to save his master. Lynn dragged him to the ship and moved with all the speed it has left but it moves slow since Ven uses his energy to hold it back. Jordan a few moments later grew angry after what he did so he blasted a huge Borealis wave at Ven, and the escape pod moved on light speed to escape from the Empire. In Plantroph, Fuyu gasped and slowly fell as she felt Ven's guilt for the murder ofhis own father the guards came to check on her. Fuyu moans when she got up and that's when she decided to find him herself because she knows there is still good in him "You two take care of the village while I'm gone" two guards agreed to do her request and before they left her hut, they both said simultaneously "It's great working with you ma'am" "Thank you" she replied.
