It was one of the hardest decisions I basically had to make. I know it should be easy since your brother should mean a lot more than one of your friends, but I did not spend that much time with him, and I spent a lot more time with Aaron. I had to think real deep about my decision because what I choose could alter Pheonix Drop. If Aaron never died, who knows what would happen to Aphmau? My brother though on the other hand probably wouldn't alter that much just because no one really knew him much except me.
I made the decision, I chose my brother over Aaron. I was scared that if I chose Aaron, it may affect time and Pheonix Drop, possibly even Aphmau. I then was sent back to Scarlet's house, and then mine and another portal closed. That just made the last portal grow so big that it almost ripped the house apart. I was obviously curious so I walked inside the portal to see what was happening. I walk inside and I see Scarlet, Tori and Namikaz sitting there, and a huge army of Shadow Knights. The first thing I heard is the Shadow Knights were demanding us to let go of our weapons and surrender to them. It was at that moment that I realized that I was in my dimension. A few years ago I have gotten my own dimension somehow, and I have not visited it for ages (If you want more of a back story check the few final episodes of Season 1). Now I know that it was being overrun by a huge army of shadow knights. We did the only thing we could and fought our way, through. They were honestly powerful but not as powerful as us, I look around after I take one shadow knight down, and I see Namikaz shooting fire from the sky, but I do not think that is helping that much. After hours of hard work, we finally take down every shadow knight except one. The final shadow knight is wearing a huge black mask, and then all of a sudden, Tori, Scarlet, and Namikaz got shot through a portal that seemed to lead back home. The shadow knight slowly unmasked himself. It was Aaron. Aaron was the final shadow knight left in my dimension. I had a few decisions, to either take him down, try to speak sense to him, and while I was thinking about that, another portal opened, and a dude came by, and I looked on another wall, and it said "You wished on your brother? Well, here he is. You chose to not save Aaron and now you have to take him down" I never thought the last time I saw Aaron it would be a fight against me and my brother. As soon as my brother realized that I was his brother, then we were thinking of a plan to take Aaron down.
"How should we do this?" I said to him, still wondering if he was actually my brother
"Do what? Take that guy down?" He responded quietly so just in case Aaron, the final shadow knight, couldn't hear
"Well, what do you think we have to do? Yeah, maybe I can go straight in and then you can come in when he turns your back to you?"
"Alright. Good." My brother quickly responded
Then we were, fighting Aaron. I jumped right in the fight, usually when you hear "Friends have to fight because one turned evil" The person fighting the evil usually is sad and doesn't want to hurt their enemy friend, but I knew I couldn't let Aaron cause any more harm to me, my dimension or anyone in Pheonix Drop. It was an intense fight. Once Aaron turned his back to my brother, that I still didn't know the name of, My brother went right in and started attacking from behind. The fight was probably approximately an hour long because I was exhausted after, and so was my brother, but it still was not over. We were still striking Aaron until he fell, and then a portal open and threw us through. Another portal than opened sucking us into another dimension, this time with Tori, Scarlet, My Brother, and Namikaz. We were fighting off more shadow knights, and spending a long time doing so. These batch of shadow knights seemed to be more superior than the ones previously. We seemed to be in another dimension, and then it popped into my head, this was a dimension that Scarlet has created for herself, it was mostly red grass, not to symbolize blood or death or anything, just because her favorite color was red.
We were working hard to take down the shadow knights. Once again we woke all of the shadow knights down and all of a sudden, another final shadow knight that is wearing a mask appears, and this time he unmasked to be Laurence.
"Same strategy?" He said to me, and I nodded my head saying yes
We went in and did the same strategy and we fought for about another hour, going back and forth surprisingly even know it was a 2v1, we were still having a close battle. About 20 minutes into the battle, Laurence hit my brother, and he fell, now it was just me and Laurence, me and him went at it for a good hour going back and forth, in my eyes we are about even with our combat skills, but it all ended with the final strike when I hit Laurence and he fell. All of the sudden my brother got up, unharmed or anything, and then he congratulated me on beating Laurence while he was down.
We then got a portal, and that portal went back to Scarlets home. It was like nothing happened, her house was not damaged, everything was ok, but the black totem was gone. A sign appeared on the wall saying "You have won this time, you have won the first Battle Of The Dimensions, you have my congratulations and you have all been awarded some awards for putting on such an effort." My brother also teleported to Scarlets home, and for some reason, he didn't seem that out of place in the group, it was a fun time after that because we were talking about what happened to each of us, and then we talked to my brother finally about how he came back from the dead, he honestly had no idea, he didn't even remember dying, he just remembered coming back and then having to fight with me against Aaron and Laurence. I did not know if the fights were real, but my brother certainly was. Maybe the brother was my award, but it honestly didn't look like that. After the battles and we finished chatting, a treasure chest appeared, one for each of us, except Namikaz, because mine said Austin and Namikaz, Mine held potions and stuff to brew, even my own pocket portal to my dimension so I can go there and hang out anytime I want to. Scarlets held a brand new obsidian plated sword, and red obsidian armor, it was rumored that red obsidian is the rarest material in the entire world, so she was really happy and surprised about that reward, Tori received a few bottles with Battle Of The Dimensions official water to strengthen her waterbender ability's, my brother received everything he needed to start off in a village, he got food, supplies, weapons and all of that stuff along that line. The final rewards for all of us were official Battle Of The Dimensions swords, I still do not get to this minute if fighting Aaron and Laurence was real, hopefully, I would figure that out sometime. Maybe the contest was held by ghosts or spirits to see if someone was powerful enough to be a warrior - I kept thinking about that possibility being insane if we actually passed the "test." That night we held a party for Me, Scarlet, Tori, and my brother. The party was insane since we had some guests from Pheonix Drop that I have not talked to in a long time, and eventually the party did die out, but the fights were not over.
