Jumu looked at Kagami. He put his hand on his shoulder smiling. "You didn't really mean those things when you said you were not a great person deep down, did you?" Jumu wanted clarification.

"No. I was degrading who I really was. I do love myself, I guess I was reminiscing on the past again. I apologize for that. No... I am sorry for feeling this way." Kagami looked down feeling sad suddenly.

"Hey, don't be like that. We all have negative emotions trying to make us feel bad. That should not stop you from feeling happy every once and a while. You are more special then you think. People have used your name for granted in a bad way, it is time to stop, let that go. You have had it hard. Peace is what you need." Jumu said reassuring Kagami that everything was going to be okay. He hugged him for about a few minutes before looking at him smiling from a distance.

Gold utilized his newfound powers. He started to pose in a rather odd way. It seemed that Graphite gifted him with a rather unique power. He had Graphite's fragment of power deeply stored within him, but it certainly did not make him evil or anything. Gold had yellow-ish/red like eyes. He shifted the red shadow like energy sideways than he shifted it the other way.

He slammed the red shadow together with his two hands. His entire body was covered in a very heavy magical armor as well as a bizarre appearance in terms of attire. "God this feels good!" Red smirked.

Koi looked at Gold. "Well that's a first isn't it? I am guessing since you have this new form. You're calling yourself Red?" Koi laughed.

"Go. It's time." Kagami replied sending the four of them off to the real world.

Itarus. The main world. Gold, Silver, Jumu, Koi, were all back. It would seem Endurance was playing with his magical cat which had a tiny necklace on its head. "Oh? You are back already, hmmm? How about that, even in death; gods have a way of messing with me and my line of work. Enough about me though, let us talk about you. I mean, this IS your journey we are talking about, aren't we?" Endurance chuckled to himself as he could not fathom the amount of entertainment, he has been seeing with Jumu and his friends.

"Save it. Show us where Luminaria is!" Jumu shouted at him. Endurance narrowed his eyes. "The final horseman..."

"Interesting proposition you bring to the table. Are you high or did the angels breast feed you too much that the intelligence level dropped down within your mind? Do you have ANY idea of how hard it is to find the final horseman? From the way the world is right now, do you honestly believe she will come out of her hibernation just to find you? That is not how life works. So, what do you expect me to do?" Endurance replied feeling rather confused. He had no way of knowing where she might be. So, it was a rather impossible quest to do.

"I expect you to do something. You got us in this mess, now you will get us out." Jumu said feeling like Endurance owes them a favor.

"You really make it hard to hold a conversation with you side by side. However, I will grant you your wish since you seem to be begging me. Plus, I do not have to feel guilty anymore because you killed two out of the three horsemen. Which is rather bizarre for someone who just got gifted powers like a madman. You aren't honestly expecting anything less, now were you?" Endurance questioned this. He smirked a little bit.

Koi replied to Endurance. "So, how in the hell are you supposed to be any help, if you can't find the only thing, we're trying to find in the first place huh?"

Endurance chuckled hard at the comment given by Koi. "How rude of you. Don't you realize you are the one insulting the person that is trying to help you. I am the one that is responsible of where Luminaria's tomb is kept, I am the one who might know where she is. So, I would appreciate it if you would keep the sass to yourself for once. That is, unless you wish for me to bail and leave you stranded in the middle of nowhere to go. What an incredibly small hearted person you are. I am quite saddened."

Gold sighed. "My lord. Do you rant on everything that bothers you? Whatever happened to taking us to our destination? Look, I apologize because of Koi's behavior, now can you take us to where we want to go or not?"

"Fine, we can probably go to Hulio Waltz Cathedral ruins. Luminaria is a Holy horseman. She is the one with divine powers unlike the other horsemen. From what I saw from the scriptures, you must gain a wish by some conditions met. You would need to battle her in terms of power. If the power exceeds hers, then that person gets their wish." Endurance said with confidence.

Making their way to the location. A reaper's seal or insignia in this case was seared by a few trees along the way. It had the markings of the reaper. Silver touched the tree. The tree erupted with dread. It also erupted with pure hatred.

"It seems like we are not the only one's trying to catch the Final horseman in this adventure. Though, I do not think this is the end of it. I do have a bad feeling about this. Nothing worth to celebrate." Endurance questioned this for a moment. He felt worried. He did not feel very thrilled about what was going on.

"We have company. Gold, Koi, Jumu, Silver. Keep your guard up. There won't be a next time if you aren't alive to see the tale come true in its full glory." Endurance looked at the figure standing between the eldest tree. He did seem quiet for the most part.

Black shadows mirror all four of their movements. Standing between the shadows was none other then Dawson. Grabbing Jumu's arm, he smirked feeling a little nostalgic at what he found after all these years. Another Talisman. "Going somewhere so soon? Do not make me wait another millennium. Greetings. My name is Dawson. I am the Horseman of War. I cause war, I make war come true in all parts of the worlds. This is nothing new of course. I have been doing this for a long time. I suppose you could say this is part of my job description." He grabbed Jumu's face squeezing it a little bit.

"I hear you are trying to find the last Horseman. I also hear she is hot. I sure would love to nail her and make her mine, but she is not going to be that easy to tame, you know. Your friend is right. She's in the Hulio Waltz Cathedral Ruin's. Her tomb is ready to be awakened. I will leave you with this Talisman. Trend lightly, she is not someone you should mess with in terms of strength as well as power. Endurance go with them, that is if you have anymore dignity left in yourself that is... Heh..."

"Don't patronize me. I have enough dignity to salvage for myself in the last few centuries since I did make you." Endurance took a deep breath and sighed. He grabbed the tracker to where the last Horseman was found so they could begin their search. It was time. It was time to put an end to a mystery left unchecked for the sake of humanity's future.
