Chapter 23: Runic Oblivion

Clones surround the group.

Jake: "We've got to take them out as fast as possible!"

Jake's pendant begins to glow.

Aqua: "I'm not letting that happen again!"

Two clones attack Jake as the flames begin to appear.

Aqua: "Full force!"

Dozens of clones begin to pile on everyone.

Jason: "Come on!"

Jason begins to change to his dragon form.

Aqua: "Don't you learn?"

The clones interrupt the change.

Aqua: "I don't need to lift a finger now I have an idea about what those new tricks do."

Jack attempts to clone himself

Jade: "How about this?!"

Jade smashes clone after clone into oblivion.

Aqua: "Waste of energy."

Aqua creates more.

Eryth: "You can't make more than one Jack!"

Jack produces a clone.

Jack: "(smiling) We're going to need all the help we can get."

Jack pulls out his tome.

Jack: "(smiling) Rune #3 Flame."

Flames emerge from beneath Jack's feet.

Joseph: "Rune #11 Light!"

Joseph has light gather around his hands.

Aqua: "He isn't worth the effort.

A dozen clones pile onto Joseph.

Jay: "(sighing) I've got him."

Jay begins to decapitate clone after clone.

Aqua: "Looks like I need to do it to you too."

Aqua produces clones at breakneck speeds as they pile on Jay and Jason.

Jason: "(struggling) I can't move!"

More clones on Jake.

Jake: "(falling apart) Please not again!"

Three times as many on Jade.

Aqua: "Now all I need is you two."

The remaining clones head towards Jack.

Eryth: "Any plans?!"

The flames prevent the clones getting closer.

Jack: "(smiling) Nope!"

Eryth: "(sighing) Of course."

Aqua: "Those flames won't last forever."

Jade: "(struggling, pissed) We need something!"

Eryth: "Reality won't take them all out."

Jack's aura appears.

Jack: "Well can we power it up?"

Eryth: "Well..."

The flames begin to shrink.

Eryth: "It's possible to use all fifteen Runes at once, but..."

Jack's aura glows like a rainbow.

Jack: "(smiling) And?"

Eryth: "... your body could dissolve in the blast."

Jack begins to have the aura flow into his hands.

Jack: "(smiling) I'll be fine."

As the symbol appears in their left eyes, the Runes on Jack's wrist begin to glow.

Aqua: "Now!"

The clones dive over the fire.

Jack/ Eryth: "Runic Oblivion!"

The blast eliminate all the clones, plus a few on the others.

Joseph: "Jack!"

Jack's body is beginning to vanish as the blast heads straight for Aqua.

Jake: "(in head) I'm not losing anyone!"

Jake frees his right arm with his sword, switches to whip form and wraps it around Jacks leg.

Eryth: "What are you-"

Jake begins to send energy that slowly reverses the dissolving.

Jake: "I had an idea and went with it."

Aqua: "No! Not here!"

The blast destroys any clone made to block the blast.

Aqua: "WHY???!!!"

The blast makes contact with Aqua.

Jack: "You chose the wrong enemies."

Aqua vanishes, along with the clones.

A-99 was watching the final moments.

A-99: "(in awe) Brother..."

The blast vanishes as he falls onto his knee.

Jack: "That was awesome!"

A-99 rushes in.

A-99: "You actually..."

Jack: "(smiling) Good thing Jake was able to reverse that!"

Jake and the others stand up.

Jay: "Now the rift should-"

A golden doorway appears.

Jack: "What are we waiting for?!"

A-99: "What are you-"

Jack: "Joseph can explain."

Jay and Jade step through.

Jason: "Well say you goodbyes."

Jason and Jake step through.

Jack: "Well, I'll see you guys when it's safe."

A-99 hugs her brother.

A-99: "Don't die."

Eryth hops through.

Jack: "(smiling) I won't."

Jack lets go and steps through.

Jack: "(in awe) What's this?!"

Jack is standing in a futuristic city, with glass buildings, flashing lights, different types of music coming from everywhere, and automatic forms of transportation.

Jack: "(excited) This place looks awesome!"

Jack turns around to find two metallic people rushing after him.

??? 1: "Violation of Section 38c, outdated equipment."

??? 2: "Fifth one in such a short instance."

They grab Jack by the arms.

Jack: "(laughing) I just got here too."

Jack notices a kid in mostly black and something on his head look at him.

Kid: "(in head) Best to just walk away."

The kid looks like he's has a headache for a split second.

Voice: "Help him my grandson."

He returns to normal.

Kid: "What the hell was that?"

He looks at Jack again.

Kid: "That old piece of shit can go choke on his own fucking dick."

The kid swipes his hand across his side.
