Alright, on three two one.

The rumbling started but this time there were no screams.

I took immediate action and had my summon clones assist everybody where help was needed.

Just that alone took a toll on me. However I kept going. And luckily she was in the same place like before.

I focused and gathered my mana till I was her size. I started pelting her with fireballs, water spells and even tried freezing her.

I know it won't work of course, but I want her to let down her guard and it looks like it's working.

I had one if my clones lead her over to me and once we made eye contact I activated the hypnotism.

Damn it she's strong! I could feel my hold nearly breaking and within that time frame I also activated the take over body spell.

My heart started burning with unbelievable pain and I screamed as I felt us merge.

Who.....

Who am I?

I was fighting for something. Wonder what it was....

Wait Anthony, mom, Markus, !!

We both screamed as we battled for dominance.

When I reached for the shard in place of her heart, she'd regain control abd retract our hand back.

This is going nowhere!

Someone please! Help!

'Goddess Ganto?'

Of course she can't help!!

Our eyes zoomed in on approaching Anthony.

"Antho-" I start to say momentarily taking control just to warn him, then he plunged an aura sword into us.

Using the momentum he snatched the shard and then leapt back.

Wait what?!

Darkness consumed our vision and I died feeling so much regret. As well as anger at Anthony and Goddess Ganto.

I wake up in a void. "Hello Child" a sorrowful voice rang out.

My anger flared at seeing Goddess Ganto appear.

I point a finger at her. "You did this! How dare you?! After everything. You should've just let me stay dead after my execution! I got hopeful at having another life, only for this?!"

She fell silent and we both knew I was right.

"What now?! You're going to punish me?!"

"No she's not sis"

I turn again confused. "Lavender?!"

I run and hug her, feeling overwhelmed.

"Please don't be angry at her" "It was neither of our faults"

"You're here now and you can finally rest"

I burst out sobbing as I collapsed.

"Thankyou. Thankyou. Thankyou!"

I turn to Goddess Ganto and apologize. Wait, since Lavender's here....

"Goddess can you grant brief permission for Lavender to see our- her mother?"

"You didn't need to ask, child. In order for her soul to rest, I'll do that"

I barely blinked and mother appeared, screaming, before I rushed forward to catch her.

"Adeline? What's going on sweetie? Oh my goodness, are you hurt?"

I lean into her touch and shake my head. "I'm not mom, but there's someone here that wants to see you again"

"Again?"

I nod. And mom turns to see Lavender. Both wordlessly stay a each other then hug each other, talking in jumbled words.

I sat by with a smile as the two reconnected. Both seemed light of burdens, at finally seeing each other. Soon enough, mom had to leave after hugging both of us with teary eyes.

____________________________________________

I was restless as years passed, but I was also content. My angry heart ached upon seeing Anthony and everyone else eventually move on.

At least they're happy....

At least they're safe...

Hey y/n? Please....

Did I do the right thing?

Don't forget me...
