Chapter 20: Final Warning

Walker: "Such a childish reason."

Andrea leans Micheal against a wall.

Andrea: "It's all we need!"

Everyone else readies their gem weapons.

Walker: "Don't you see the fact that Aegis is using you five?!"

The binary code envelopes nearly the entire sky.

Kyle: "We need to wrap this up now!"

Robert: "We know this Shadowbreaker!"

William: "What do you mean by using?"

Walker: "Aegis is using you all to defeat me!"

Kyle: "We would do it anyway."

Walker: "These mere children can't see deeper."

Walker switches to Blademaster.

Robert: "No matter what class you pick, we'll still take you down!"

Walker: "X will prevail if you continue!"

Andrea: "Just shut the hell up about X!"

Andrea dashes in close with shadows following her.

Andrea: "Silent Pierce!"

The shadows attempt to stab at Walker.

Walker: "Futile."

Walker dodges last second.

William: "Gale Grenade!"

Walker dodges that as well.

Robert: "Glacier Collision!"

Two walls of ice begin to close in on Walker.

Walker: "Predictable."

Walker dodges and sends Robert flying with a single sword swing.

Kyle: "Roc!"

Kyle charges an arrow of light.

Kyle: "Sacred Burst!"

Walker is grazed as he dodges.

Walker: "Playtime's over."

As Walker does battle with the rest of Shining Star, Micheal remains near motionless on the sidelines.

Micheal: "(faintly) Everyone..."

Lights keep flying across Micheal's eyes.

Micheal: "(faintly) Please stop, we lost..."

Micheal keeps thinking back to the reason.

Micheal: "(faintly) Because we're Shining Star..."

Micheal can't help but to tear up at those words.

Micheal: "(faintly) I feel hopeless, empty, defeated, and yet... I can't stand sitting here..."

Ruby Buster's flames begin to burn blue.

Walker: "This is far more annoying than anticipated."

Everyone is starting to become covered in cuts, bruises, and are coughing a little blood after five minutes.

Walker: "Farewell."

Walker sends everyone into a similar Micheal state in four, lightning fast swings.

Walker: "I guess I'll do ladies first."

Walker walks up to Andrea.

Walker: "It appears the wealthy Kain family shall lose their heir.

???: "No ones losing anything..."

Walker: "(shocked) What's the meaning of this?!"

Walker finds Micheal standing on two feet.

Walker: "How're you standing?! That arrow should've crippled you?!"

Micheal: "Because I'm a member of Shining Star..."

William: "(faintly) Heh..."

Kyle: "(faintly) We're just a bunch of fucking sophomores who bit off more than we can chew..."

Ruby Buster's flames change to purple, radiating heat felt by everyone.

Andrea: "(faintly) How is he-?"

Kyle: "(faintly) Guess we bit off just enough..."

Walker: "No matter! If you truly want to die than come at me!"

Walker switches to Guardian.

Micheal: "I'm not about to embarrass myself in front of my friends!"

Robert: "(faintly) I feel... confidence in this heat..." 

Micheal: "I am Light! The ace Blademaster of Shining Star!"

Ruby Buster's flames extend further than usual.

Micheal: "Plasma Break!"

Micheal slashes toward Walker at light speed, shattering the shield into pieces.

Walker: "How?!"

Micheal: "I'll finish you in a single strike Maximilian Walker!"

Micheal hit's Walker head on with the purple flames, sending Walker right back to the real world.

Micheal: "Now to use this!"

Micheal uses a healing item to fix his chest.

Micheal: "It's over guys..."

No one responds...

Micheal: "No, no, no..."

Micheal quickly heals their wounds and checks for a pulse.

Micheal: "(relieved) Looks like Walker tried a bit harder on them."

The binary in the sky vanishes

Micheal: "We did it."

Micheal forces the others to log out.

Micheal: "(in pain) That still hurts though!"

Several policemen and reporters crowd around the login building.

Micheal: "W-W-What the?"

Reporter: "Mr. Myls, you're the one who saved a major internet shutdown, how do you feel about this?"

Micheal is overcrowded  by news reporters.

Micheal: "My friends need medical attention! I need to get them to a hospital before anything!"

???: "is my daughter okay?"

A wealthy looking man barges through the crowd and picks up Andrea.

Mr. Kain: "(crying) I'm sorry..."

Other parents of Shining Star follows behind Kain.

Ms Faire: "(crying) William..."

Mrs. Weber: "(crying) Why did I expect that of you?!"

Mr. Wells: "To think people like them would target children."

Mr. Kain: "We need to help these children before any questions are answered!"

Micheal: "(relieved) Thank fu-."

Micheal falls onto his knee.

Micheal: "(in pain) Shit!"

Mr. Kain reaches out for Micheal's hand.

Mr. Kain: "You need help as much as my daughter!"

Micheal grabs his hand.

Micheal: "(grabbing chest) Thanks..."

The five are rushed to the hospital, with each being inside separate emergency rooms. Then a week later...

Nurse: "(muffled) Mr. Myls?"

Micheal: "(puzzled) Yes?"

Nurse: "You have two visitors."

Micheal: "Let them in."

Mr. Kain and the officer step inside with the nurse closing the door.

Officer: "You're all over the news kid."

Micheal: "We did stop a group that would've caused a major internet blackout."

Officer: "Maximilian Walker is currently in solitary confinement thanks to you." 

The officer pulls out a small USB.

Officer: "He was using the codes in this to not only affect the binary of Pixel Reality, but it also allowed free roaming between servers."

The officer puts the USB away.

Officer: "Iris Aegis has purchased the server jumping codes to attempt to incorporate them into Pixel Reality."

Micheal: "That's an update and a half."

Officer: "Now Kain here has some information you would like to hear."

Mr. Kain clears his throat.

Mr. Kain: "I heard about your father, and I know your connections to my daughter, so I have an offer."

Micheal: "(calmly) What is it?"

Mr. Kain: "Will you accept yourself into the Kain family?'

Micheal's eyes open.

Micheal: "(shocked) Y-Y-Yes, but I have one request."

Mr. Kain: "What is it?"

Micheal: "I want to have my last name to remain as Myls."

Mr. Kain: "I can arrange that, but why? I thought you resented your father?"

Micheal: "I do, but I don't want to forget it either."

Mr. Kain: "Very well. The others know about this arrangement as well."

The two begin to leave.

Mr. Kain: "One last thing!"

Micheal: "Yes?"

Mr. Kain: "You all will be released tomorrow."

Micheal: "Thanks for the notification."

Officer: "(mumbling) I should investigate Walker on the side with that research I'm doing on Tomorrows Knights..."

The two leave.

Micheal: "A new life starts tomorrow."

In Pixel Reality HQ...

Aegis: "I win..."
