Zodax ii
Back at the battlefield, the four were fighting endlessly. The allies were easy to destroy, but there were too many. Kylock moved iclose to Ryan
Kylock: If we keep fighting like this, we won't have enough energy for Zodax.
Ryan: But they keep coming.
Kylock: Then we go after him now.
Ryan (shocked): Me and you? He's probably stronger than all of us combined.
Kylock: We have no choice, we've got one chance now,
Kylock dragged Ryan to the front where Zodax stood. Ryan felt like it was suicidal move and why him, Ely was the one with super strength, he absolutely knew this wouldn't be fun
Kylock attacked, the pole Zodax stood on shattered. Zodax flew upward—he could fly, giving him an advantage.
Ryan: So this is the real battle.
Zodax's body began to flame with darkness to him they were just things he could finish off without wasting a lot of efforts, that was always his mistakes underestimating them)
Zodax (roaring): You are not qualified for this!
Kylock: We never said we were!(he ran up to him using his fists filled with with his electrical energy at him as he struck it , Zodax caught his fist almost instantly as he attacked and drained his electrical energy through dark flames. Zodax punched him away. Ryan advanced with his flaming blade—Zodax caught it, and it vanished. Then he sent Ryan flying too, he landed painfully, standing up again, this was where his doubts were confirmed, this won't be an easy one
Kylock: His dark energy is overpowering ours.
Ryan: Then what do we do?(loudly)
Kylock: Generate more energy while attacking. Keep the fight consistent, and don't get tired, cos am sure this won't end soon (he knew that already)
They rushed again.
Ely and the others noticed.
Ely: This is like an action movie.
Iriel: You'll stop calling it that when you get toasted.
Alicia: What are they doing?!
Ely: That's Zodax. They're fighting him. Are they crazy?
Iriel: Don't you think they need help?
Her heart trembled as she watched, the first attack she saw stroke a cord in her heart, she couldn't figure out why, was it Ryan, just like the larvae lake, instantly she denied her spirit of that, she was only worried about her teammates not anything else)
Alicia: I'm sure they've got it under control.
Iriel: Yeah, it seems so
Ely: They must have planned it. They'll be fine(.They returned to the fight against the allies)
Zodax slammed Kylock and Ryan into the ground. They struggled to stand.
Zodax (mocking): I was wrong about you. You're weak—half the strength you don't even possess.
He lifted them with dark energy, strangling them on air with his powers,
Suddenly, the grip loosened.
Ely was straining against Zodax, the two were surprised and to them he was dumb to do that
Ely: Hi guys.
Zodax punched Ely away. Ely flew. Iriel and Alicia rushed in, but Zodax blasted them too, they were weak to be the ones to hold him down
Ryan: Brave one guys …(in a scornful low tone)
(almost instantly zodax got in front of the twain with a great force he griped thier necks he flew them high in the purple skies of Marthadon, he was practically torturing them with his energy, this was a lot to bear for the two, Ryan could only accept this pain piercing his systems, Kylock couldn't bear this anymore he had to find a way to save Ryan and himself, he generated more power. His electrical stripes intensified, forcing Zodax's grip open. Ryan followed this was like the solution to this torture generating heat until he broke free too. Zodax couldn't bear the retaliation in mid-air. With a violent burst, they landed and splitted apart.
Ryan :He's really strong.
Kylock :But now we know how to fight him.
Ryan : we keep generating greater energy as we attack right
Kylock :yes, come on
Inside the dome, Og ran through the dark mist until he reached the crack chamber, he entered this eerie room It was like a large, colorful eyeball floating in void, it Pressure strained his body this and the eerie atmosphere tends to contribute to the effects
Then a voice spoke in his language.
Pedigi :you traitor (thanks to his sharp senses he was able to perceive Pedigi's sneak attack, he dodged immediately)
(The
the grit to kill one another increased the strength and enhance the fury of the conflict between the two death allies, one to destroy the other to salvate a dying world)
Pedigi :you betrayed us (still fighting)
Og :am only trying to help
Pedigi :No (he tried to slam something like a long hammer on him, Og agility saved his life, he dodged and this gave him a chance to punch his opponent, Pedigi was moved a little bit a back, with great speed and force Pedigi used his hammer on Og unfortunately he could not dodge this one, he fell due to the effect of the bang as he was trying to stagger up, Pedigi held him stabbed him with his claws dipping it into his intestine he was bent on killing him,) you betrayed us, you betrayed the valley Og we could have ruled together conquer dimensions (as he spoke the more he stabbed, Og felt he was loosing it, he was dying bleeding out greenish blood) you are a betrayal (this statement aroused his spirit he wasn't a betrayal he knew that certainly, with the greatest strength he could gather he punched Pedigi away, he fell, Og took his hammer in a bacchanallic manner slammed it on him twice, this made Pedigi lay down flat on the dark ground, Og didn't murder him)
Og :(yelling out loud) I did not betray my world (in a bacchanallic manner he walked towards the crack, as he was close he heard a clash sound, he turned to see Pedigi with his hammer falling down flat again and he immediately vanished into thin air, he had lost his life, Og was thunder strucked by what he just beheld, this was close to death, Hazel slammed her staff on the ground in front of him)
Hazel: Are you okay?!
Og (shaking): I am… I'm just shocked.
Hazel: You must've handled him.
(Bangs hit the door.)
Hazel: I blocked them. So what now?
Og: I need to close the crack.
Hazel: This door won't hold much longer.
Og: I have to close it from the other side.
Hazel: So you have to go back?
Og: Yes.
Hazel (quietly): Good luck, friend. Our lives depend on you now.
Og staggered toward the crack, forcing himself through the pressure created by the force field in the crack he staggered in . The door broke open behind Hazel as the Death Allies flooded in. Immediately Og disappeared into the dimensional line.
Hazel raised her staff, ready for
Hazel: Round two.
Back at the battlefield,
The war zone wasn't a cool spot for the quarternion and thier captain, Zadox doing unto them as wishes, at least they could still defend themselves but could not just attack, he was too strong and the other trios were tired of the unending war with this monsters, the valiant are falling and the mighty are fainting in battle, the strong bow is starting to bend to the will of the archer)
Zadox /you are failing Mart Force, (he towered in front of the weak Ryan and Kylock who made silent prayers for this to be over soon,
Zodax: You are failing, (as if heavens heard thier prayers
The sky changed. Purple was swallowed by green. Green thunderbolts struck the surface. An earthquake shook Marthadon.
And suddenly—the Death Allies began vanishing.
Kylock: They closed the crack.(with a face that showed victory was a certain now
Zodax became trapped in an array of light that drained his power.
Ely: Everyone okay?
Kylock: Still breathing.
Ryan: Now it's our turn.
Back at the dome, Hazel stood alone. The crack was closed. Everything became darker without its glow.
Hazel (smiling through tears): He did it…
Then the building began collapsing without the dark energy holding it together.
Hazel: Teleport(she tapped her kryck)
She vanished from the nightmare.
Zodax struggled inside the draining array, fury boiling.
Zodax (thundering): It can't end like this! This is not the end, Mart Force!
Kylock (calm): It is, Zodax.
Zodax: Never!
His rage exploded. Dark lightning burst from him. The ground shook. He was overpowering the array—trying to destroy everything, even himself.
Ryan (shouting): What's happening?!
Kylock: He's trying to destroy the whole place with his dark energy!
Alicia: What do we do?! He'll destroy himself and everything around us!
Kylock: I'll create an energy cyclone with my speed to bottle his power. You four will use your split energy to absorb it.
Ely: How?!
Kylock: The same way you did with the Broken Chain.
Ryan: We didn't absorb energy—we released it.
Kylock: Everything is connected to the heart. We don't have time!
Kylock began circling them and Zodax at full speed. A gigantic cyclone formed from his stripes.
Kylock: Now!
Ely: What do we do?!
Ryan: Why are you asking me? I don't know!
Kylock: No time. Wield it with your heart(his voice echoed through the cyclone he was creating
Alicia: With your heart…(they were used to this)
They closed their eyes and felt the energy flowing through them. Their hearts guided it.
Soon, green light covered their bodies like flames—split energy, the fusion of Marthadonian and human energy. Stronger than anything they had ever used before.
Their powers had merged over time… and become something greater, as if Kylock knew it was the solution. They snapped their eyes open. Power burst from their bodies, intertwining as it connected to Zadox, draining his energy relentlessly.
Kylock: You're doing great—keep going!
Zadox: It can't end like this!
Driven by pure vengeance, Zadox forced out even more energy, which was killing him paralyzing his life force)
Kylock: You'll destroy yourself this way!
Ryan: You're ending your own life!
After more than three minutes, a massive energy blast erupted, shaking the entire battlefield, it was a clash of great enrrgies in the dimension. Then—silence. A silence as deep as a graveyard.
Zadox was gone.
Ryan: What just happened?
Iriel: Where is Zadox?
Kylock stepped forward and picked up a shattered fragment of Zadox's suit from the ground.
Kylock: Either he's dead… or completely broken.
Alicia: Does that mean we won?
Kylock: I think we did, this serves as proof
Those words unleashed a flood of emotion. After everything they had faced, it was finally over. They erupted in cheers, exchanging high-fives, it was a long trip to this point and not an easy one
Kylock: Well done, everyone.
Still wrapped in joy and relief, the Mart Force sat on projected chairs that formed around them.
Kylock (smiling warmly, his bluish cheeks glowing): We all did an outstanding job out there.
A sudden beep echoed from the screen. Their hearts skipped.
Hazel stood up.
Hazel: It's a message.
Iriel: Let's hope it's not an ominous one this time
Hazel tapped the screen. Og appeared. Even his alien features couldn't hide his emotions. He smiled genuinely—proof enough that the message wasn't bad news.
Og (his voice slightly cracked): I just wanted to say thank you. I'm honored to have fought beside you, Mart Force. And next time… I won't hesitate.
You restored my honor to the valley. I truly believe nothing can stop you. With your courage, whatever lies ahead—you're strong enough to face it.
Good luck, my friends.
The message ended.
Ely: That was… really touching.
Kylock (turning to the quartet): We also owe you our thanks. You gave everything to save Marthadon—a world that isn't even yours. That takes true selflessness and courage.
Ryan: Thanks to your guidance, Captain.
Kylock: Thanks to the team we became.
Ely (raising his fist): Then let me say this—Mart Force, fly!
Alicia: I'm starting to like this job.
Iriel: We're always ready, anytime, Captain.
Their enthusiasm alone felt powerful enough to fight a world war.
Hazel: Wait—I prepared something for you.
She exchanged a knowing look with Kylock. He hurried off and returned a second later carrying four dimensional krycks. Hazel handed them out one by one.
Ryan: What are these for?
Hazel: Teleportation—and interdimensional communication, device
Kylock: You'll be able to contact us and summon portals on your own.
Ely (amazed): You've got to be kidding me—this is incredible!
Ryan: This is seriously cool.
Ely (examining his): It fits my style.The devices bonded to their wrists, forming sleek bands with blue gems at their centers.
Kylock: I'm sure this doesn't end here. There are villains far greater than Zadox. We must always be prepared.
This… is just the beginning of our story, and am sure it is great ahead, I hope
Later that night, Ryan rushed into his house, knowing his uncle would be worried.
Meric: Just getting in? Why are you late?!
Ryan ran straight to his room.
Ryan (calling out): Got a part-time job!
Meric: A part-time job? Since when did you become responsible?
Ryan: Since I got into Degriss High.
He removed his jacket and pulled aside a curtain in his room. Behind it was a large board covered in markings and images—his parentsboard covered in markings and images—his parents' picture pinned at the center, this was more like an investigation board
Ryan (quietly): I'm getting closer, Mum… Dad.
And I won't stop until I find him.
Far away, in a dark valley, Zadox rose from the miry clay where he had been buried. His glowing eyes snapped open.
A crack tore through the walls of Marthadon.
POV – Ryan:
Seems like this isn't over yet.
