The battle has reached an impasse. Anna asked us about my father and asked why we was proud of her. Now, she's hugging us and called us dad. Saying she believes in us.

...

We won't let her down!

A red power surrounds us.

We've made our decision.

The red power surrounds us. This magic.. I've read about it. I.T. studied it. This element is some low level love magic. Still useful. I could use it as an alternative to my dark magic. This love isn't one of romance, it's love between father and daughter. That's what this power is.

Did I just say I?

My soul! This power fixed it!?!

I'm so happy!

"I gotta go," I smile, "handle I.T. You should be able to leave, but just in case..."

I use my new power after signaling Anna to follow me to open the Barrier.

"It's about to Ascend," I smile, "so you'll enter just as book two ends but won't appear in book two."

"Thanks," Anna smiles, "you be careful."

"Don't worry," I smile, conjuring my new power in my palm, "I'm not fighting for myself anymore. Send Twilight my reguards."

"I will," Anna smiles, "see you later."

"I hope so..."

With that, I use my dark power to signal I.T. In Morse code I say, "I challenge you scumbag!"

I'm ripped out of the multiverse, and I see I.T.

"You think you can take me?" They roar.

"I know I can!" I exclaim, "because unlike you, I'm not fighting for myself!"

"Then prepare to be erased!" I.T. roars, lunging at me in a full swing...
