Nadzieja( Polish for Hope)

Chapter 46: Victory, Owl and Death

Meanwhile, as the heroes were walking down their last very long corridor into Nibiru's chamber Przemysław and Sabin managed to catch up to them. Nibiru himself was sitting on his throne in his chamber waiting for the solar eclipse to finally happen as it was going to happen in less than 4 hours. Soon a skeleton wearing a black hooded robe, holding a scythe as a weapon in his left hand carrying a small philosopher stone in his right hand, and riding on a pale horse, came to Nibiru to give him the stone. "Father, I managed to gather even more souls for you," said the horseman giving Nibiru the philosopher stone. Nibiru took the stone and swallowed it greedily. After swallowing the stone Nibiru underwent a drastic transformation, becoming very muscular, growing up to 2.5 meters in height, his fingernails turned into claws, his skin grey, and growing pair of bat-like wings on his back and sprouting out an additional pair of arms.

Soon the Mothman flew into the chamber and started telling his master Nibiru that there are intruders approaching the chamber. But Nibiru laughed "It doesn't matter because I am currently at my most powerful state and in a few hours the eclipse will be upon us and the universe shall be a better place besides I have you and Death on my side, there is a very little chance anyone could beat me"

Less than 5 minutes later there was very strong banging on the chamber's door and Przemysław broke through the door with his friends.

"Death take care of the outsiders" ordered Nibiru, Death nodded his head and attacked our heroes he was very fast our heroes barely had time to dodge his scythe attack. Then the Mothman joined the fight on Death's side "Don't forget about me" He laughed the Mothman mostly attacked attacking and retreating. Death finally claims his first victim Robert Brown by stabbing him in the heart with his scythe as he dies in a matter of seconds, Robert has no time to say goodbye to everyone.

Przemysław, Sabin, Viraj, and Jake manage to injure Death but no matter how severe the injury was, Death would heal from that injury in a matter of seconds as if nothing happened. " You can't kill me, I am the living embodiment of death, and death can't be stopped" laughed the Horseman. Sabin and Przemysław both unleash a powerful Cero attack on Death. " We already have destroyed 2 of your brothers Famine and Pestilence, you are simply hard to kill but not impossible," said Sabin as she unleashed a powerful stream of fire from her hands and later threw a giant metal boulder using her elemental powers. Death's attacks started to become even faster, stronger, and deadlier, luckily as this was happening Louis managed to knock the Mothman unconscious.

As all hope seemed lost they heard a very loud boom on the left wall it was Kevin, Tomek, Chris, and Fabina who managed to get some explosives and finally made it to the ritual chamber. " Do you gays need some help" Kevin puts his fist into a boxing guard stance. Kevin shoots chains from his gauntlets and wraps them around Death so he won't move and then Tomek using his newly upgraded Krzyż attacks Death with a very strong hit from his Krzyż which is now a hammer, the hit is so strong it blew off Death's head clean of his shoulders of course he regrows a new head in a matter of seconds. Przemyslaw, Charles, Viraj, and many others were impressed with Tomek's upgrade to his Krzyż as now they 2 Krzyż users that had achieved the Kak upgrade "You are only delaying the inevitable" laughed Death as he broke free from the chains.

Viraj fires a rocket from his rocket launcher and Captain Europe throws his shield and fires his heat vision but Death heals from the attack immediately. But everyone unleashes all their best attacks together as a team on Death until he eventually runs out of souls to power himself up, as Viraj unleashes his final attack on him and slowly begins to crumble into dust saying his final words " You may have beaten death but there are much scarier things than death, but don't worry all pain shall be gone once my father completes the ritual". Tomek showing his hammer, points it at Nibiru and shouts " All of your 4 Horseman of the Apocalypse have been destroyed"
