Our Last Hope

::31:: Battle for Japan

"Are you sure about this Tash..I mean, it sounds freakin' crazy, giant dragon creatures? Did you watch too much anime again?" Zi asks as Tashi sighs

"I wish I was, but this is all true, everything, even the Regrets" he says while Zi looks around in her duffel bag

"I'll believe when I see them" She says as she finds the gems as she sighs

"Hey, what's that?" Victory asks as Zi looks at her

"My gems, the only thing that my mom got me." She says as Plush hops out of Victory's hair

"Lets see, these gems seem to have some power in them, let me try something" he says while tossing the gems into the sky as Zi screeches

"YOU IDIOT!" She yells as the gems form a scythe as her eyes widen

"What the.." she mutters as she picks up the scythe while it feels cold to the touch

"Of course, this isn't a joke..someone wake me up.." she says while sighing as bittersweet memories flood her head

"Promise you won't forget me mommy?"

"I won't sweetie."

"I love you mommy."

"Zi!" Tashi says as Zi snaps out of her memories

"We're here!" He says as Zi looks out to see what there is

Death. Soldiers dead. So many lost. Many with no name

"Oh god.." Victory chokes at the sight of the bodies as Burn sighs

"These poor men and women..why did they must die.." he says as he picks up their dog tags covered in their blood as a woman appears looking at Burn

"Who the hell are you kid? This isn't a playground? Why do you have dog tags of the fallen?!" The woman shouts as Burn sighs

"I thought it would be nice to pick up their dog tags, my mom was a soldier too." He says while giving the woman the dog tags

"..thanks kid..stay safe.." she says as she walks away as a Regret almost stomps her as Burn stops it

"LADY! RUN!" He says as Phi turns into the red light as Burn's gauntlets appear, holding the Regret's foot up as the woman looks at him

"Don't..look back.." he says as the woman nods while getting up while running

"I got it!" Cas and Tris appear as Cas shoots the legs off the Regret with two shotguns as Tris jumps up on the Regret's head, as he pulls out his old walking stick, he tugs at the dragon head as a blade comes out of the walking stick as he stabs the sword in its head as it poofs

"Tris! Cas!" Aya says while jumping off the boat to hug Cas

"I thought you two stayed back!" Aya says while Tris sighs

"We heard about what was going on, we needed to help!" Cas says

"Then what were you two doing while staying at Jasonsvale" Victory pops in as Tris opens his mouth

"Cas was cuddling me while I was trying to cook. I have video-" he says as Cas smashes the camera as his face is red

"Uh, ok.." Aya says as Zi looks at the rubble as she spots two hands locked holding each other as she moves the rubble

It was her parents

There was a ribbon saying congrats Zi on it as tears flood Zi's eyes

"They..knew..about my ceremony.." she says as she hugs the two bodies of her parents as their dead eyes suddenly gain life

"M-mom.. dad..?" She says as the two corpses of her parents hug her back, as she feels beats of drums in their chests

"Z..Zi..We are so sorry..we were planning your ceremony..we took it too harsh..we started to treat you wrong.." her mother says as a whole army of Regrets appear in front of Zi and the other defenders.

"Mom, Dad! Get out of here, I cannot lose you!" Zi says as her parents nod as they get up

"We love you." Her mother says as the run away as the whole entire team looks at the army

"We have one hell of a world to save, and we won't fail." Victory says
