"What's wrong Kai?" Ragnarok asks as I shake my head. "I heard someone. A friend that has been long dead." I say as I hear Zero sigh. A bolt of energy rips through my body as I drop to my knees. "I know what your talking about." Ragnarok says as she taps my shoulder. "So he is one of your friends?" She asks as I nod and stand up. "He's not the same as he was, but I can take you to him." Ragnarok says as I look to her. "Do it. NOW!" I shout as I feel myself lose control over my supressed form for a split second. I instantly regain my composure and look around. The fragment of energy that escaped the supressed for has evaporated and disintegrated nearby buildings. I see balls of energy around all the people. There are also people floating above the remains of the buildings. "I saved them, you need to control your emotions." Ragnarok says as I blink and everything is back to normal. Everyone carrying on like nothing ever happened. "What happened? Why aren't they terrified or running?" I ask as Ragnarok giggles. "I turned back time a few seconds before you lost control. Now let us go see your old friend." Ragnarok says as a portal opens in front of me. I quickly run through the portal and see nothing. Just a blank plain landscape, white and void of any further color. A gentle breeze blows past me as Ragnarok steps next to me. "He's here." Ragnarok says as a sword suddenly appears in Ragnarok's shoulder. "Hm, that stings." She mumbles as I quickly jump back. I look around before I hear Zero laugh lightly above me. I quickly look up to see a man with 4 large black wings and ash grey skin. Long flowing black hair with green energy cracking through his skin. "It's been a while, I believe you have something of mine." He says as I blink and see I'm back in the fight with Silvia. Zero speaks up near me. "I'm only in the third release of Nemix. I forfeit my life to you. NEMIX ASHEN! LEND ME THE FOURTH RELEASE!" Zero yells as his body is consumed by the grey flames. I re-watch Zero give his life for us. Unable to move I watch as a green flame absorbs into me when he gives me his remaining energy. As I blink again I'm back to the present moment. "I would like my fragment back." He says as Ragnarok and I undo our supressed forms. "You aren't Zero." I say as he laughs. "Correct, he offered me his body as a vessel. Chief Deity Nemix, at your service." He says with a grin. "You were weaker than Silvia, and we managed to defeat her." I say as he looks towards Ragnarok. "Hm, then let's fight. I'm here in partial spirit, my full form can't cross the void yet to reach here." He says as he summons a green blade with black symbols engraved in the handle. "Then let us fight in this plane where neither death nor time exists." He says as I fall forward and hit the ground. My spine regenerates as I stand up. "Very nice regeneration." He remarks as I stand up. "Give me my friend back!" I yell as I jump to my 4th release. I let my body fight purely by reflex. I appear behind Nemix and attack before my mind can figure out what's happening. I kick him in the face and as I blink I see large white cracks in the void around me. "You are quite powerful. It seems the congregation will still occur." He says as he appears beside me and throws a punch. I easily teleport back to dodge. "Congregation? What are you talking about?" I ask as he laughs. "You align yourself with Chief Deities and Manifestations, yet you have no idea why. Don't worry child, you'll see soon enough. And maybe you'll get your friend back." Nemix says as I see Zero next to him. "But for now, let's test your full power." He says as I feel Eclipse's and Ragnarok's power surging through me. "If you or any other Chief Deities want a fight." I say as I release all the energy I have. "Then I'll kill all of you." I mumble as I feel energy wrap around my very soul. I summon a white and purple energy to both of my hands. "Ragnarok, undo whatever damage this causes. Please." I say as I see Ragnarok vanish. I refuse to be a pawn to these Deities. I think as I discharge all the energy in my palms. A blast of white and purple energy rips through everything around me. As I blink I see nothing around me. Not darkness, yet no existence. No solid ground, yet I stand on solidity. A point where reality cannot reach. I see 13 beings in front of me. I recognize Eclipse, Ragnarok, Azoria, and Silvia. The other 9 look like shadows. As the darkness fades from each one I feel energy signatures equal to Ragnarok and Eclipse. A voice echoes through the space around me. "5 Manifestations. 5 Chief Deities. 3 Primordial Paragons. The path you have aligned yourself on, will be filled with death and sorrow. Your fate is decided." I blink and wake up on a patch of grass. I see all my friends around me. As I make a fist I see I'm in my supressed form. As I look around I see. Aziria, Azura, Snow, Raven, Sinclair, Anix, Ragnarok, Velon, Zen, Vexx, Sorin, and Rukia standing around me. "What happened?" I ask as I see flashes of vague memories. Aziria helps me to my feet and looks at me terrified. "If Ragnarok hadn't sheltered our planet and universe, you would've killed everyone." She says as my eyes open wide. "What?" I ask, almost paralyzed by shock. "What happened?" I mumble as Ragnarok taps my shoulder. "Kid, you just fought a fragment of a Chief Deity. I'm proud to say, congratulations." She says as I look at her. "Why?" I ask as she smiles happily. "Every strong being within the 5 planes of existence is now fully aware of who, and how strong you are."
