The S.T.F. Files, Book 4: DIATON

Nada Takes the Stand

Flesh

Blade smirked, "so Hellmaster was defeated. Then who are you and why are you here?"

I sighed, "Zion, we're brought into the past. So this is right before-"

"If HellMaster is dead...that means...that means I'm Hellmaster!" Jet smirked, "take that Nevermore!"

"Nevermore is your future wife. Her name isn't Nevermore. Her name is Alicia. And she is a human. No powers at all" Hellmaster looked deeply down at his grave, "you all remember Alison, don't you?"

Blade nods, "Such a fun soul to take over, how could I not remember?"

"Zion...we're servants to Nada, and we owe our lives to him." I tell Zion, "Now, well, we must support Nada in all our ways until he becomes Hellmaster."

I notice a mirror by the tree. I walk over to it and see myself in the mirror. I sigh before I reach out my right hand and touch it with my index finger. A blackish purple light illuminates from below me. A wind sweeps my hair upward before the dark purple light blinds me. I reopen my eyes and look at myself. Short black messy hair with bright red highlights. Black tutu with a red one underneath it, below a black skirt. Black corset laced around a red undershirt, the tie with a thick black lace in the front, and a bow tied at the top. Black sleeves that started below my shoulders. My right sleeve went to my wrist, where my black lacy gloves were. My left ended before my elbow and I had a long black leather glove tied all the way to my wrist. It had a red undercoat too. It ended where my lacy black glove started. I noticed I had my bright red headband with the long three long pieces of cloth hanging off on each side: two black, and one red. I pushed my overgrown bangs to the sides and turned on my heels. I smiled to the boys, "Flesh is back!"

Blade looked surprise, "so, what about the fight? Alison shouted-"

Hellmaster looked at Jet, "As much as we wanna believe it, Nature didn't bring everyone back to this moment. Alison did. Alison wanted to see Dimitri once more. With that ending, Dimitri wouldn't make it. With the ending now, he'll make it, as long as everyone remembers who they were, and can change back before Nature has Alquimia, the ending will turn out correct."

"One down, seventeen to go?" I shrug.

Jet shakes his head. He had his back turned to us as a black aurora surrounds us. His clothes change to dark jeans and a kinda neon deep purple colour. He had black converse on. He turned around. His face was half -hidden by his jet-black hair.

Nada...

"Eighteen. Don't forget Eclaire is Rilla the traitor. Plus Theresa and Dimitrius must bring back Alison and Alagretto."

"You mean Allegretto? As in music?" Blade asked.

"No, his parents are weird. Don't ask." I look to Hellmaster, "how the heck are we supposed to get them here?"

Hellmaster shrugged, "I dunno, Nature's child and Time's child should know better. Not me!"

"Useless" Blade barked. He transformed back to Zion.

Hell is a magical place, it seems.

"But what about reality? What about us? If we're here isn't Nature beating-"

Hellmaster looks to Nada, "When Time was defeated, Alquimia was given power. So Alison gained the power of Time. Alison wished the ending could be different, for she knew what would happen if nothing had happened."

"So Riza will never be Nature...Alagretto will" I figured out, "then why are they so powerful?"

Nada shouted, "isn't it obvious? Time and Nature are trying to become more powerful. Nature will have Alagretto, Time will have Aly if all works out. They knew if Time was defeated, Aly would bring everyone back to this time, then they could easily get both Aly and Alagretto. Two Natures, Two Times...do you see this? Do you know how much power they'd have then?! They'd have the world to their command. Then they'd have both the STF, EFT, my servants, DIATON, and those who never made the DIATON in control. They'd use us for power, turn us against everyone. They'd get rid of Theresa, Riza, Dimitri, and Dimitirus because they have the power to resist. That's how they got power. They get their power from somewhere else. Dimitri knows this. He's the one who found Charza. He knows something Riza doesn't. Dimitri knows the past, Riza knows the present, and together they can change the future. However, Alison and Alagretto have the real power. It's a team. Riza and Dimitrius come from parallel universes. Two different versions of the same story. They both are the physical people. They're physical abilities and fearlessness are amazing. They're smart and fast. Alison and Alagretto are the magic type. They have these powers that make them stronger, but they're physically weak. They're great at listening, however they take time to prepare their attacks."
