The End of an Era

Revelations

On this planet they set foot and tread amongst the rubble. The conquering god had long since vanished. Blaze looks out at the once sprawling capital with clenched fists. Razz places a hand on his back. It does very little too quell his rage. He shrugs Razz off and proceeds forward. His countrymen had sought refuge after Malik, the God of Conquest, had struck. Many were alive and well. A few hundred were sealed in coffins. Including his beloved sisters. They reached what was once the throne room, expecting a fight.

Instead they were met with a child who knelt over the god who was disintegrating. Everyone readied themselves with Cael stepping forward to speak.
"Who are you? What happened here?" Cael asked the child. He could feel a deafening roar of power surging just beneath the small frame.
"I am The End. I have reclaimed a piece of myself. This man has been assimilated into my being." End spoke much to fluently to be a normal child. He was definitely an existence of Zaak. But was he hostile?
"You assimilated him. Does that mean you are a splinter of Zaak?" Lexi says stepping forward. The End's eyes narrow.
"I am." He says flatly. "But I doubt he would want you to bring me to him. He has taken incredible measures to ensure I am as far away as possible."
"Why it's that? Cael says readying his gunsword.
"I am his death. His true death." End says. "I am the end of everything he is."
Razz flies past everyone throwing a punched charged with pure kinetic energy. The attack, however, is negated. The kinetic energy dissipates and Razz is gently repelled. End sighs quietly.
"Let's kick his ass!" Razz calls out.
"Hold on Razz." Cael says.
"He is a threat." Razz rebukes.
"I am not a threat. All things must end. Zaak is no exception."

Everyone is quiet for a moment. Contemplating the current predicament. End speaks, breaking the silence.
"He probably hasn't told you. But this isn't the first time I've come to rejoin him. He has been keeping me away for trillions of trillions of millennia. Each time, he destroys all of reality by turning it on itself. Pressuring it until it unravels. In doing so he "resets" infinite continuum. Forcing everyone to relive the last few hundred trillion years. Even all of you." Everyone is quiet. Normally such a tale would be impossible. But they have seen impossible time and time again.
"How can we trust you?" Lexi asks.
"How can you trust anybody?" Everyone looks at each other. Wondering where that leaves them. Then Razz asks the obvious question.
"Why are you telling us this?"

"I need help."

Everyone arrives back at Castle Sanctus. Minds still swirling with thoughts. Zaak is no where to be found. The rest of Zaak's Core Existences are going about their business. Cael, Blaze, Lexi, and Razz retire to their respective quarters. They had fought amongst each other bickering about what to do. Ultimately they all decided to deliberate privately and present their decisions in the morning. Lylith, who had been out on another mission, had been filled in and given the same proposition.

Everyone quietly contemplates their decision.

Knowing that no matter what they choose.

The fate of all existence hangs in the balance.
