Mason and I headed towards the grim reaper. We went back to the broken down building where we first found him. It was probably really dangerous but I did not care because I was angry, so I screamed "Grim Reaper! Come out!" I just got her back. You can't take her away from me! Three reapers jumped off the roof and landed on the floor with a low, loud crack and a dust cloud. "Kill...them." Groaned the reaper. Killing people to steal their powers must've really turned them into monsters. Mason took a stance, held his gun tightly but not violently, making sure his newfound powers didn't go off. I took stance, too, aware and careful of Mason's status. They came at us, but were blown away forcefully by a seemingly concentrated wind that seemed to be coming in our direction. We easily dodged, it felt like it wasn't aimed for us. As the air cleared, we realized that the wind had come from my father, the Grim Reaper. He slowly walked toward us, still intimidating as hell. "Like last time, you only have a finite amount of time. What do you want?" He asked me in his low voice, Mason squinting at him behind me still shocked to know that this was my father, or should i say our father. "Your guys took Emma away, where is she?" I asked, my voice managing to be steady against this 7 feet tall monster. "Listen, kid, my guys are just like yours. They follow me when I need them but I don't know every single little thing they do. By now, the probably took your little girlfriend's power by now." He taunted. "Wait. Power? She has two." I corrected. "I know, but reapers can only steal one power per person, if the person only has one, they die. Emma has two, so they probably took the stronger one away and then killed her. What powers does she have?" He asked. "Hypnosis and Telekinesis." I answered. "Damnit!" He screamed. "Knowing them they probably took your girl's hypnosis, probably cancelling all the hypnotizations she's made in the past." He explained. Me and Mason gave each other a concerned look. This means that the guys who saw us working together regained their memories and are probably gathering a rebellion ring. "Then let her live so they could control her. She's probably wandering mindlessly at a place very important to her. That's where you'll find her." The Grim Reaper continued. Important? What is important to her...oh, the Golden Gate Bridge! That was the last time we saw each other. That's where she thought I died. She HAS to be there. "Thanks." I told him as I motioned Mason to follow me and run away. As the Grim Reaper watched our backs, he muttered "goodbye, twin soldiers..."
*Golden Gate Bridge*
We get to the exit of the bridge, and see a small silhouette very far away at the very center of the bridge. Must be Emma. We hear rioting coming from a mile away. Mason looks back, and so do I, we see a million people dressed in purple coming at us rapidly. Wait, thats not purple, thats red and blue, the soldiers and conduits are rebelling against us! Me and Mason weren't worried as they were still very far away. "I'll handle Emma, I want you to try to use your explosions to make a concentrated wind like the Grim Reaper and hold the rioters back enough time foe me to handle this." I told Mason. He nodded, and we parted ways. It took me about 4 minutes to run all the way to the center of the bridge, it was really long. As I was getting near Emma I saw a round of Rebels run at her from the other side of the bridge. She raised her hand and swung her arm down in a fist, crushing them all, blood splattering on her and even me, who was still several meters away. I got near her, but not to near, as I was cautious that she was being controlled by the reapers. "Emma...?" I slowly asked. She stood creepily still and silent for several seconds. It seemed as if the world had stopped when ended that question. She suddenly looked back, her eyes glowing red and her veins visibly beating and glowing. That's not Emma... "The Emma I know wouldn't have killed all those people!" I scolded her. She flashed me her teeth like a rabid dog, showing fangs. I walked back in awe, as I realized that she was not herself anymore. She raised her hand as if she was going to crush me too, so I raised my arms in a cross, using my own telekinesis to form a shield of air to block out her power. She swung her arm down, pushing me down and cracking my shield. My knees bent as she put more pressure, and the concrete crumbled beneath me. My shield broke completely, leaving me helpless. I fell to my knees, my arms either dislocated or broken, as I couldn't feel them, and Evil Emma walked up to me just like my Grim Reaper father. I was going to lift my broken arm in pain to shoot Emma but then I realized. I can't fight back. I can't hurt her, much less kill her. This is it. The reapers won. They found my weakness. Let's hope Mason finds a way to stop this without killing her. Nevertheless, its over for me. "Fine." I groaned. "Take me, in fact, take my heart for that matter." I provoked her. She screeched in an evil, raspy monster scream and pointed an open hand at me. "I love you." I said as she closed her hand and I felt my heart be ripped out of my body. I looked down, a huge hole in my chest and my crushed heart on the floor. Goodbye, Emma.

*Mason's POV:Golden Gate Bridge Exit*
Me and Adam parted ways. I looked down the street, that was at least several thousands of rioting rebels running this direction. I made small explosions pointed at them, which seemed to make nothing but noise. I joined my hands and locked them together, opened a small hole in them and aimed it at the crowd. It exploded, throwing fire and magically appearing shrapnel in their direction. Some of the rebels died, some were burned, and most were just thrown back. I did it a bunch of times, exhausting me. By the time I couldn't do it anymore, I had the decreased their number vastly. But they were still catching up. "Adam?" I said, turning around to warn him to hurry up. Instead, I saw my best friend be crushed by the love of his life while kneeling to her. "ADAM!" I screamed in shock. I ran to him, tears in my eyes, anger and energy welling up inside me, tripping along the way. I used my explosions to propel me further. When I got there, I held his motionless body in my arms. No heart there, just a hole. I looked up at Emma with fury, betting that there was a more fiery glow in my eyes than hers. She raised her hand, once again to crush me, but I quickly rose both of mine's and used all the anger inside of me to attack. My hands exploded right in her body, as if it was a target, the intensity of the blast blew her to bits, satisfying every part of me. As her ashes rained down upon me, I realized that rebels on both sides of the bridge were coming at me from only just a few feet away. "Traitor! I believed in you!" Was all I heard as they ran at me. I stood facing them sideways. I stretched my arms out, aiming them at both clusters of rebels. I tightened my muscles, but nothing happened. I panicked. I tried again. And again. And again. And again. But it didn't work. The energy I had used to kill Emma had drained everything inside of me. I reached for my gun, and realized that the explosions that I had caused had turned my guns into molten metal. The bullets of several thousand guns rained down on my body. The powers of several thousand conduits rained down on me. My feeling of satisfaction, had turned into disappointment and once again, anger. I looked up, and saw a shadow watching over me from the top of the bridge. I was disintegrated, on the same ground where my innocence died. Damnit.

*Third Person POV*
Mason's body is shred into little pieces, just a few inches away from Emma's ashes, and a few feet away from Adam's heartless body. At the top of the bridge's tall structure stands a tall masked man dressed in dark green. He has a smirk on his face, as if he was expecting this to happen. Another masked man comes up to him and says "The Boss of the Brotherhood, the Queen of the conduits, and her boyfriend are all dead, just like you planned sir." He said, talking like if he was the man's servant. "I know, I didn't plan it to be this exciting though. But now i'm bored." He smiled. "Sir, you could use your resurrection powers to revive them and have a little fun manipulating them with your puppeteer power." The masked servant said. "Don't talk about my powers lightly, only you know about them." He warned. "Sorry sir, only us Heroes and the Reapers are alive. We could make the rebels join us and conquer the reapers." The masked servant offered. "Yes, it will be easy now with the leaders dead and the rebel forces joining us. I need to thank you though, for guiding Adam to lead the leaders to their deaths." Said the boss. "No problem, sir." Replied the servant. They both removed their masks to reveal the boss to be Miguel Reyes, and the servant being David Mendez.
