It's been 30 minutes, Schicksal has already set up a defensive line, against the enemies are coming.

That defensive line is very effective against the Enemies.

But still, there is still alot of civilians in the danger area, which is full of enemies and threats.

And clearly, they doesn't have enough force to defend, and saving civilians.

"Where is Otto?" - Pledge asks.

None of them response, or either looking around.

Because they knew, Otto is not in the safe area, it's true he was here earlier.

"... Where did he go?" - Pledge seems to know. "Find him, get a small team, find him and the civilians."

"Okay." - The Valkyries response.

At some building, the Star Cells are flying around in this area.

And Otto is just sneaking around, trying to avoid engaging.

"Damn it, after all of this over, imma trying to let my true feelings out to Kallen...." - He said, and still being careful.

And after searching everywhere in this area, and seeing no one, he starts to go away, keep looking.

And eventually, he got himself into a building looked like school.

"Oh shit..." - He quickly runs inside, as there's a chance.

After seeing the area surrounding is clear, he starts to looking around for any survivors.

"..." - He heard something from a small classroom, the entrance of that room was blocked, but there's a small hole at the window still not being covered in bricks yet.

He peeks in, sees about 20 students, of grade 3 or 4, with a teacher is trapped inside.

"Hey! Hey! You all okay in there?" - He said through the hole.

"???"

"Someone's outside."

"Hey! Anyone!!!"

"Okay, i am here! Just hang on a litt-" - And then he heard, there's some Stargazers. "Just hang inside there a little bit more! Imma get you all outside!!!" - He runs away, leads the Syatgazers run after him.

And also takes out the gun, and aiming for them, but it doesn't deal much damage to them, and he suddenly have a plan.

He runs to the stairs, hasn't been blocked yet, and run to floor 2.

There's a Storm Diver at the top of the stairs, he aims at Otto, and fire at him.

Otto dodged it, and catch the enemy's head, then slam his head to a wall, with a force is enough to breaks the protector, and kills it.

And the Stargazers is near the top of the stairs, Otto throws the corpse at them, then fire at them, which killed 2 off, and one more left. But 2 more coming after him.

He runs to a hallway, at the end of the hallway, he turns back, and shoot at the enemies for 13 shots in total.

But it didn't killed them all, because some missed, and killed 2 only, there's one left.

And the trigger is stuck by somehow.

"You've gotta be fucking kidding me." - He curse.

The Stargazer charges to Otto. He steps back, at the moment the enemy swing his arm at him, then he charges to the Stargazer, pushing it to the opening window, and jumps down along with it.

He falls to the ground, by using the Stargazer as a meat shield to prevent all the fall damage.

He quickly changes the 1st Divine Key into a blade, and stab the Stargazer to death.

"Hah... Fucking shit...." - He lays down next to the corpse. "After all of this ended... Imma retire... Leave all of these to Theresa... Saving Earth my ass...." - Then he looks to the classroom from earlier, and getting up.

Going to move the bricks, and the rocks out, one by one, without make the school collapse.

"Okay, the coast is clear, moving out quick! Climb through those bricks!" - Otto said, as he dig a hole enough for an adult to come through.

And the teacher inside helps her students to come out first, and Otto standing outside, getting them out.

After a while, and getting the teacher out.

"You okay?" - Otto ask, as he still looking around.

"Yes."

"Is there anyone else in this school?"

"No, because i held an extra class for these students, drained them in math."

"..."

In alternate universe.

Otto : *shoots the teacher* You get what you fucking deserves.

Back to main universe.

"Okay, there are people can help you guys away from here 20 blocks that way. I'll lead you all there, but follow my lead, and do not panic." - Otto said, and turning the 1st divine key back to the gun form.

And checking if the trigger still stuck or not.

"Okay, let's go." - He said, as immediately leading everyone.

He peeks out, there are no signs of enemies around here.

"... Okay."

After a while, they managed to go half of the way without engage with any enemies.

But they're stuck here, because there is alot of Storm Divers blocking the path, Otto looks at them, then the students and the teacher.

He had to make a risky move.

"Okay,..." - He looks around, sees a cop's corpse, he comes by, and pick up a pistol. "You know how to use these?" - Otto look at the teacher.

"B*tch please, i was in military 4 years ago. On Major rank."

"... Okay." - Otto throws her the gun. "On my mark, you guys run as fast as you can, all the way from here to my troops, they'll help you."

"And what about you?"

"I'll buy you some times." - Otto said, then he takes a breath. "On my mark!"

He rushes out to the Storm Divers.

"Over here! Fuckers!" - He shoots at the Storm Divers.

The enemy quickly notice them, and some of them got killed by his gun, but others are alive is pointing their gun at Otto, and fire at him.

One of these shots hits Otto's right arm.

"Shit." - He keep shooting to trigger them, and run inside a building. "Over here! Fuckers!"

The Storm Divers got triggered, they immediately going inside the building after Otto.

"Now! Run!" - Otto shout from the inside of the building.

The teacher hears it, and there is no enemy on the road.

"Okay, let's go kids." - The teacher said, as she's leading her students, with the pistol on her hands.

At your current position, at some random see, you can already feel it, the sound of the broken shield from the Pillars, after kicking so much ass.

And it leads you to some beaches, which has a building near the beach.

And don't know why, but you see some explosions on the water, some Star Cells and Storm Divers got killed alot.

And then there's alot of planes around, shooting at the enemies.

Down below.

Another you, which is you from Hyperion, transferred to Azur Lane, is kicking ass with the Ankh shield.

"Commander! There is too many of them! We can't take them down all!" - Enterprise shout, as keep shooting arrows to the Storm Divers and the Stargazers.

"Do not give up! Keep pushing the enemies back, but keep our casualties as lowest as possible!" - You shout.

"Yorktown is hurt! We need assist here!" - Kaga.

"This is the Aircraft Carrier team, we got alot of members is hurt, we need backup now, Commander." - Hornet.

"... Is this the end of us...."

"Great, was nice knowing you guys!" - Sheffield said, as firing at the Star Cells.

And Belfast with Sirius have to take care of the ships has been damaged.

"Commander! More enemies coming from the water!" - Enterprise shout.

"On my way!" - You said, as just killed another StarGazer. And running to the beach.

Alot of enemies is coming up.

"Hah... Ha.... I really need Author nowm...." - You equip the shield back.

And suddenly, from the sky, some sort of light swords appears, and they pierced through the enemies in front of you, then the enemies on air, and literally everywhere around the base.

"What the hell was that?" - Queen Elizabeth.

"I don't know... But everyone, keep eyes up." - You said, as looking up someone in the sky, wearing some sort of yellow armor, with blue flames on it.

And there's a Stand behind that figure, the swords coming back behind to the figure.

You recognize it.

"... Author?"

The figure slowly lands down.

"Author is that you?"

The figure remove his helmet.

"Who the hell is Author?" - You from Terraria.

"... What?"

"What?"

"Why do you look like me?" - You and the other you.

"Stop copying my line!" - You and the other you.

"Oh come on! I am trying to- urghhhh." - You and the other you.

"Commander." - Enterprise comes by.

"Oh... Enterprise..." - You.

"Okay, anyways, i've heard about you, you were the Captain of Hyperion." - You said.

"You know Hyperion?"

"Yeah, big ship, not that good in defensive, and need improves alot."

"????" - Enterprise.

"Okay, so.... How are my girls doing?"

"They're pretty great, i trained them against these creatures."

"You better not lewding my daughter."

"What? No.... I would never do a such thing like that!"

"... You better."

"Yeah anyways, have you seen a giant ass floating pillar?"

"Yes, it's right over there." - You points at the mountain near the base, there is 2 pillars up there.

One is Vortex, and one is Stardust.

"Need help?"

"Nope." - You just changed the armor to the Vortex Armor, and using Ranger weapons.

"Need help?"

"No, i work alone." - You summons the UFO, and flies all the way to the mountain.

And when you got to the mountain, the enemies prepared a warm welcome to you, by deploying all the monster at once.

"Tsk." - You used the Tsunami (bow), to fire Holy Arrows at them, and kill them all in 39 seconds.

Then you aim for the Pillars. Let the Stardust Dragon killing the enemies around.

"Sayonara, baby." - You fire about 89 volley of arrows to the pillars, and let the fallen stars taking care the rest.

Back to the city.

The Valkyrie squad has meet up with the students, and the teacher.

Pledge, and Ritual Imayoh is the only ones going to the building, where Otto ran in a few minutes ago.

"..." - Pledge seems nervous.

"This is it... Let's get inside..."

They both get in with the weapons ready, and keep looking around.

The first thing they see is some enemy's corpse on the floor, and some bloodshed.

"..."

And eventually, they find a pillar, with Otto is leaning his back on it, with 2 holes at his chest, and one at his torso.

"OTTO! OTTO! NO! FUCK! FUCK!!!" - Kallen immediately runs to Otto is bleeding, she throws away her guns.

"Gramps..." - Theresa.

"Kallen..." - Otto tries to look at Kallen is running to him.

"Stay with me, man, stay with me, you're gonna be fine... You're gonna be fine..." - Kallen tries to hold back the bleeding, but he lost too much blood, and the wounds is big.

"... No.... I am so sorry... For everything..." - He said, and trying his best to stay awake.

"Gramps..."

"Theresa... I'm leaving the rest to you..."

"No, no, gramps, you're gonna live forever, stay with us!"

"No... This is... My last body.... And i deserves this... For all the people i killed.... But at least... Let me... Save some of them... Since it's not too late..."

"Dude, stay awake!"

"Kallen... Hope that fox girl... Can bring happy to you... More than i... Can..." - He smiles, and cough out blood. "I have called Hydra... I'm pretty sure... They'll come here soon... *cough*."

"Gramps, stay with us..." - Theresa getting next to him.

"No.... I'm sorry... My sweetie..." - He pats her head. And after a few seconds, the hand lose its strength, and falls down.

"No no no no no..." - Theresa hold his hand back, put on her head.

And another StarGazer, which is still alive appears, and jumps at the Valkyries.

But then, some flying crystal shards came, pierced through the StarGazer, and kills it.

Both immediately turns back, they see a man wear sunglasses, with a red coat, and some strange, ancient suit.

"You're... Oh thank god, Driver, come and save him! You can heal these wounds!!!" - Theresa said.

Driver come closer, and looking at Otto.

"What's wrong? Heal him! Heal him quick! You god damn piece of shit!!" - Theresa stands up, and hit him.

Driver doesn't fight back, he let Theresa hit him freely, but he doesn't do anything means Otto can't be saved anymore.

"... We were too late... I'm sorry. But now, this city is secured, and alot of people were saved by him." - Driver kneels down, and shut Otto's both eyes.

"..." - Kallen stay silent, she accepted the truth can't be changed.

No one can reverse the death.

But sometimes, Otto Apocalypse could be a killer, an asshole in the past.

But he changed, be chose to help humanity, in the last hours of his life.

Rest in Peace, Otto Apocalypse.
