Chapter 11: Dimensional Destruction

Our heroes fell through the portal, screaming or trying to find a place to land until a few seconds later? They all crashed and tumbled down a hill.

"OW! OW! OW! OW!" They all cried before all seven of them hit against a tree. There was silence for a moment as a pile of heroes just laid there, not making a sound.

Sasha finally spoke up. "...Marcy, please get off me." She said with a muffed voice.

Marcy pushed Hunter off her and then got off Sasha. The others stood up later, with Anne wrapping Red Guard's arm around her shoulder.

Red Guard winced. "O-Ow..."

"Sorry!" Anne said. "You okay...?"

"Not really. I'm in an extreme amount of pain." Red Guard said with a light hiss.

Luz then turned to everyone. "So...I think we can safely say our plan failed."

"When did they get so powerful...?" Vee whispered. "I-I knew Belos was strong, but..."

"So is The Core." Marcy said. "I-I guess she no longer has past us holding her back...my best assumption is that Belos is now inside the Hivemind, and is using his magic to hold us back."

Anne then blinked. "Wait, if that's past us...then won't it change the future?"

Marcy was silent before she began to panic. "OH, GOD! OH, GOD! WE'RE GONNA BE ERASED FROM EXISTENCE! I'M GONNA LOSE ALL MY DEVELOPMENT!" She began taking many deep breaths, with Sasha now carrying Red Guard as Anne hugged her girlfriend.

"Mar-Mar! Mar-Mar! Look at me. Deep breaths. Deep breaths." Anne said calmly.

Marcy obeyed, taking many deep breaths. "Right...right..."

Red Guard hummed. "She does have a point though, but is also somewhat wrong. If something HAD changed the future, then a notable change would've already happened by now. Do any of you feel any different or...fading-y?"

Marcy and Anne looked at each other, looking themselves over before facing Red Guard again, shaking their heads.

"Then, you two will be just fine." Red Guard said. "In the meantime? We gotta think of a NEW plan...and also heal...I think like 10 bones in my body are broken right now..."

Hunter hissed a bit. "Yikes...where are we anyway?"

"In MY universe." Red Guard said. "Head to the Owl House. My family's there."

Luz's eyes widened. "You have a family?!"

Red Guard blinked. "Uhh, yeah? You have one, why is this so shocking?! I TOLD YOU ABOUT KING FOR TITAN'S SAKE."

"Oh, yeah!" Luz then laughed nervously. "Kinda forgot! A lot happened after that."

Red Guard sighed. "Alright. It's in the same place as yours. Anne, Marcy, Sasha? Just follow them."

Sasha nodded, carrying Red Guard as she and her friends flew into the air. Luz, Hunter, and Vee flew off with The Three Stars following soon after.




"He's been gone for days..." Eda said, looking out the window before looking at Raine. "Any luck with finding him?"

Raine sighed, taking off their coat. "No. No luck. He might be in another universe again...I can't believe I just said that."

Emira Blight, who was sitting next to Vee sleeping on the couch, fiddled with something in her hands. "Okay, he's gotta be okay...he's gotta be...he got stabbed once! HA! He'll be fine!" She cried, her eye twitching a little.

Kikimora walked over, her hands behind her back. "Worry not, everyone. Hunter is experienced in this situation. I highly doubt he's in peril or harmed."

Then? There was a knock on the door. Eda looked out the window to see who it was and her eyes widened. "...hey, did Hunter know some gladiator in red armor by any chance- I don't even need an answer." She said before slamming open the door.

Sasha, still carrying Red Guard, yelped a bit and dropped Red Guard.

"OW!" Red Guard exclaimed. "MY BACK!"

"OH MY TITAN, HE'S DEAD!!!" Kikimora screamed.

Red Guard groaned. "KIKI, I'M NOT DEAD."

Eda scooped Red Guard into her arms, taking off his mask. Her eyes were filled with concern as she carried him. "Oh, god...what happened to ya, kid? Are you okay?"

Red Guard grunted as he saw Raine and Kiki walk over, and finally Emira. "No...not really."

"What happened?" Emira asked, clutching Red Guard's hand.

Red Guard squeezed her hand, but then looked outside. "All I'll say is one of our plans failed."

"...our?" They all asked.

And that's when Sasha, Marcy, Anne, Hunter, Vee, and finally Luz walked inside. Vee quickly noticed the other version of herself asleep on the couch and blinked. "U-Uhh..."

Kiki looked at the six and her jaw dropped, while Raine rubbed their eyes under their glasses.

"...who are they?" Raine asked, pointing at them all.

Kiki stepped forward, staring at Luz. "...it can't be...Luz?"

Luz looked at Kiki, a little weirded out since the Kiki she knew wasn't very...friendly. "Uhhh, hey!"

"You...you've grown up, I...you look so different...and why does Hunter have a twin?" Kiki asked, pointing at Hunter.

Red Guard sighed as Emira laid him down on a chair. "Long story short? That's not our Luz or anyone from this universe. They're from a different dimension."

"That explains the second Vee." Eda said, seeming used to this. "And the second Hunter...but who are those three?"

Anne waved, and Marcy was studying Kikimora and putting over a magnifying glass to her strange looking hair.

"Those are The Three Stars. Heroes from their world." Red Guard said. "These guys helped me."

Emira looked at Red Guard, sighing as she took off his hood and cape. "Lemme guess. Silver Soldier got some friends too?"

"Ya hit the nail on the head." Hunter said, nodding.

Emira looked at Hunter and her eyes widened a bit. She looked from side to side. "...please keep the mask on. I do not wanna accidentally kiss the wrong one."

Hunter's eyes widened under his mask. "I'M SORRY, WHAT NOW?"

Red Guard blinked. "You don't have an Emira in your world?"

"I MEAN, WE DO, BUT SHE'S WAY OLDER THAN ME. ALSO, NOT MY GIRLFRIEND."

"...sucker." Red Guard and Emira said in unison before looking at each other and then laughing.

Sasha sighed. 'Another thing I can relate to Hunter...we're both single as hell.' She thought.

Then, the room was silenced by a tiny and familar sounding yawn. At least to The Witches. The Three Stars had never heard such a thing...and that's when King walked out. With BOTH of his horns. The broken piece mended on.

The piece Luz gave to Red Guard to give to King. As a sign that his mother missed him.

King rubbed his eyes. "Uncle Hunter? What's going-" His eyes then widened when he saw the crowded house. He was about to speak before his eyes widened further when he saw Luz. He was completely silent for a moment before tears formed in his eyes.

"M...Mama...?" King asked, stepping closer. Tears began to stream down his face and his body trembled.

Luz's heart broke at that, recalling the state of her own son back at The Healers Coven. But this King still had his mother, turned into a monster by Belos...did he even know that?

She slowly stepped closer, kneeling down and opening her arms a little to at least bring the little demon some comfort. "My little King..."

King quickly began to sob his eyes out, wiping his eyes before he ran to Luz, crashing into his other mother's arms. He began crying into her shoulder, clutching her tightly. "You're back...! You're back!!!"

Luz's heart broke even further and she held King close. She didn't want to lie...but at least right now, she could bring herself and King some comfort.

"I'm back...Mama's here." Luz whispered, holding King closer.

Emira's heart was torn apart, and Vee watched the scene with tears in her eyes. Marcy just hugged Anne tightly, tears in her own eyes. Sasha just looked to the side a bit.

Raine and Eda squeezed each other's hands, and Kikimora watched with a saddened look on her face, knowing this wasn't her Luz and that this one was just trying to bring King some comfort.

"I-I thought you w-were...! U-Uncle Hunter....h-he gave m-me the horn...! Y-You kept it for m-me...! R-Right...?" King sniffled.

Luz held King closer, nodding. "I kept it just for you, King...oh, my little baby, I missed you so much." She whispered, tears forming in her own eyes.




The Titaness looked at the city, her cape flowing in the wind as she put her hands behind her back. "The Red Guard's universe..."

Andrias walked over and bowed. "Your new body is surging with my power, my lord."

Titaness smirked. "Indeed, Andrias...with this new power, I won't even need any of you."

The villains looked at each other, taking a step back.

Titaness then floated above them. "But, every warlord needs foot soldiers...so, I'll keep you around. FOR NOW."
