《Omega A Legacy Reborn》Chapter 58: Dione and Ragnarok
Advertisement
1,500 years ago, The land of Japan was a land of prosperity and richness. This was thanks to two entities that protected the land from disasters. They were twin siblings with knowledge and power. They have always been there for the people when they needed help and in return, the people made sure to give a thank you offering in return.
Dione the younger of the two loved Persimmon, & Satsuma Mandarin and they were plenty in the land as they have been planted all over Kyoto. Ragnarok the older on the other hand was more of a Nashi Pears fan.
The Twin Guardians knew about the forthcoming disaster. This year became “The Year The Darkness Engulfed The World”. The nickname came after a volcanic eruption engulfed the world in darkness.
Dione and Ragnarok warned the citizens of such a disaster and promised to protect them from said disaster as much as possible but they will have to fend on their very own when they reached their limits of protection. Despite their protection, it was still considered “The worst year that humanity has ever lived through.” But the people of Japan never blamed them...no, not in the least, they were grateful for their help so much that as an appreciation for diminishing the utter disaster that could’ve been with many more deaths than the total that ended it being they made two pearls, one light blue and one dark blue matching their hair colors. Although it had an even deeper meaning. Dione represents the sky as clear as day, Purity, and kindness. Ragnarok on the other hand represented the great war of the Greek gods where many gods fell including Odin. He also represented warning and incoming doom. The pearls did match as you can see. As the years passed and the world evolved the people that we're grateful of the two guardians dwindled down. Soon the twin pearl would be another lost treasure of history. Despite this Dione and Ragnarok still protected Japan from disasters in their very own way. But when there's good...there is corruption. Only one time this happened and it almost brought the end of the world. Only 1 time did Dione and Ragnarok were angered by humanity's corruption 1,000 years ago and it almost ended humanity as a whole before the legendary piece owners stop them from such a tragedy from happening. However, almost 35% of humanity was wiped out by them...sort of divine punishment if you can say so. Millions perished good and evil both by the hands of the twin guardians. In order for the owners of the legendary pieces to stop the twins was to seal them away in the very same jewels that were offered and separating each jewel from the other. It was the only option left, one of them was put toward the middle of the ocean while the other was put in an underground temple. Years passed and the anger of the twin guardians turned into loneliness and sadness...even regret the humans they killed. Not all of them were evil, maybe being with someone as corrupted as The Emperor influenced them and his hatred for other people reach them. Soon they have forgotten even the corruption of The Emperor, the legendary piece owners, and even humanity itself. Only 1 name wasn’t forgotten by both twins.
(‘Dione.’)
(‘Ragnarok.’)
The name of their sibling hoping to one day see each other again and protect...the country they once guarded.

“Prime Minister!”
Okada Sakuretsu was in the third year of his second term of being the Prime Minister of Japan. He has done a good job of it; by decreasing the unemployment in Japan and bringing the future of technology beyond humanity's wildest dream. He remembers the time he was targeted for assassination by a madman bent on world domination. Luckily, He was helped by The Official Residence Guard, Troy, and The Human A.I. he even confronted the culprit of it. To think that these last 4 years he was still alive and hiding. Even worse he got the twin guardians Dione and Ragnarok. Troy assured him that they will make sure that LeDutch never reaches the coast but..you can never be too careful with that man. All the strength, and technology that they have might not be enough to completely stop someone with the pearls that contain the two guardians of Japan. He has a bad feeling about this...the last time the pearls got corrupted with hatred was a thousand years ago and it almost caused the end of humanity as they know it.

“Make sure that all corners of Japan are protected. Are the U.V.A. Shields engaged?”
“Yes Sir, all defensive systems are ready. Sir...do you think it is him?”
“HMM...” Was the answer of Prime Minister Okada to the guard. Him...Gregorio LeDutch...Will they meet once again? If that is the case...he will do anything in his power to make sure that the country of Japan is safe. He will trust Troy’s words thou. After all, he was the one who made sure that he had a second term run, to begin with.

Above them were the two entities responsible for turning the leader of Rois Et Reines into ashes.
Dione and Ragnarok looked down on the humans. They recognized instantly the legendary pieces. Yes, it all started to come back to them. Wukan Yun Kurosagi, Ichinose Hishikawa, Bei Russo...Real Lynn, those 4 precisely, the 4 responsible for separating them and sealing them inside the 2 pearls. They cannot be separated thanks to those 4 otherwise they will go back to just being artifacts. Yes, the more they are separated the weaker they will become. But now...they are once again together...They cannot risk it...they cannot risk being separated again. These Humans...all of them...they must disappear forever.
“...Humans…” Ragnarok started.
“You have made this world…” Dione Continued.
“Impure…” Both of them said. It seems that the sentences that they say are in sync with each other...truly the power of being a twin.
“It is why…”
“You all must…”
“Perish!”
Both twins unite their hands and create a giant orange orb.
(‘Shit!’)
“They’re aiming at the core!!” Sexan warned the other two. Sexan doesn’t even know if they have enough Capacity Power to stop that...But he will be damned to sit here and wait for his death and the death of the world entirely!!
The boys use their attacks only to be absorbed by the orb that expanded slightly more.
“Useless…”
“Just accept…”
“YOUR FATE HUMANS!!”
Aeris helped desperately to stop it as soon as Dione and Ragnarok push the giant orb down.
Kula helped her going as far as transforming into her second evolution but...to no avail even the beams of the aircraft from Majestic 12 were nothing compared to the powerful orb that slowly descended to its destination. It was over...the end of Earth...The Earth was destroyed…
…
…
This was fate...Death...The end of Humanity...the end of planet Earth…
This is what you have to see...Master…You must…
“INES!!!”
“Sir?!”
“GET ME THE INTERCOM!! FAST!!” Inès hasn’t seen the desperation of her president’s face ever since the incident that got Darcell Lahaska’s Sister Layla killed. What did he saw in the Hexagon of Fate that got him this desperate?!
Nevertheless, Inès did what she was told and quickly got him the intercom that connected the children’s earpiece that was held hidden.
This must be stopped quickly the fate of the world depends on it!!
()
Everyone was looking at the two young adults floating in the sky. Richard was scanning them with his Omega Eyes. He can’t believe what he is seeing!! These two are…?!
(Name: Dione...Capacity Power...38,000,000...Name: Ragnarok...Capacity Power….43,000,000)
“Humans…”
“You made this world…”
“Impure…”
“KUROSAGI!!!” That voice…
“President?!” Why is Leos sounding desperate?!
“YOU HAVE TO STOP THOSE TWO NOW!!” Those two?! Wait does he know about these two being Dione and Ragnarok!?
“What?!”
“THEY ARE GOING TO DESTROY THE EARTH!!” WHAT…?!

“It is why…”
“You all must…” OH NO YOU TWO WON’T!!
“WHITE DRAGON STRIKE FANG!!” This surprised the two guardians who dodged the incoming attack from the brown-haired boy.
“I don’t think so.” Said Richard to the twin guardians.
“...Humph…” Ragnarok now was focusing on the brown-haired boy. He looked to the other boy. So...both of them have the same legendary piece.
“It seems that humans are more dangerous than we thought.” Ragnarok wasn’t appeased that they were attacked by who he assumed is the Kurosagi of this generation...or he could be a false one. Either way, he serves as a threat to them and proves that humans cannot be allowed to live on this planet. Before humans keep being selfish and corrupted...he and his twin sister will make sure that they will not live.
Reconstructing this world will be simple for them. It is not the first time that...He gave them the task to create a planet. It will take another million years...but they have all the time in the world...unlike these humans...their time is up.
“Attacking us have confirmed our claims. Humans cannot live in this world.” Dione has been focused on the five females that hold the legendary pieces. From what she sees the one with the sphere of rage is here...she is the biggest threat out of them all…
“Just accept your fate…”
“And let us end this.”
“Humph, you think I am just going to stand idly here and let two pearls destroy this entire planet because we hurt your little feelings?! Don’t make me laugh!!” Harry was getting the vibes of fighting a strong opponent with those two. It is no surprise thou, these two were legendary artifacts now turned into human beings...sort of.
Harry didn’t hesitate to attack Dione who blocked with her long-ranged spear blade. He had to back away from her as Ragnarok attacked from the left.
“Keep away from her...human!!”
“Heh, did I struck a nerve?!” Harry cut a beam that was coming his way.
“I feel the aura of Kishima in him.” So, he is a Kishima! Thought Ragnarok hearing his twin sister’s words. He doesn’t see the boy holding the legendary piece like the others. Hmm, he wonders if he is not an owner and that someone in his family line is.
Both twin guardians look around to see they were being sealed in a cube.
“Emuna!!” Called out the orange-haired girl who responded by calling her dolls. Magdalene and a rebuilt Regalia in front both leading a set of dolls into creating a sea of rockets coming out of their arms which connected through the small holes that Kula purposely left so the rockets could enter.
*Boom*
A huge explosion followed inside the cube that had the two guardians inside after all the rockets entered simultaneously.
“Did that do it?” Asked Frederick. His answer…?!
*Crack*
*Shatter*
OF COURSE NOT!!!
“Tch!”
“Troy?” Dianne was seeing through the windows. Those kids were fighting like the fate of the world depended on it. The truth is...they were.
“...Ha! Bon Chargin! Looks like we have to help the kids down, don’t you think so Red?” Red didn’t respond, he was looking at the battle. So this is what President Leos Kishima was speaking of. This Technology that Leos Kishima has given to these kids...Is almost as if their Superior was working with him all these years.
“...Silvett…”
“Red?”
“Prepare to deploy, it seems that a world threat has been found.” Oh...he must be speaking of the two individuals that have been fighting the teens right now. Their leader must see how threatening they are. Although, considering that they came out of LeDutch body it shouldn’t come as a surprise.
“...Yes.”
Silvett commanded all members to prepare for deployment as they will now join the battle ahead. A battle with the fate of the world on the line.
Out of the 4 aircraft came 8 people. five of them were Yen, Ben, Nigel, Marik, and Mira. All the members were wearing black suits and pants with a white buttoned shirt and black shoes.
“This seems like it could be a very fun target to hit!” Said a blonde short-haired boy holding a dual silver-colored .45 ACP style laser guns. The boy seems the same age as Yuma and Adel. He seems to be full of energy like a certain brown-haired rival of Harry.
“You need to calm down there Chris, these are supernatural beings not the run of the mill thugs or terrorists we fight once every year.” Said a man 2 years older than Chris. He seemed like the Casanova type. Good-looking too will make girls fawn all over him like one of those rock stars. Long black hair similar to Mr. Lanzaboni in his prime days, and crystal blue eyes that sparkled as the sun shines on him like a spotlight. Holding in his hand was a short sword with saw teeth on the blade. The grip was a square with a cylinder in the middle while the pommel was just a circle with the MR in the middle. The cross-guard was U-shaped. This was Romeno. His partner a violet short pig-tailed-haired girl with plum eyes. She had an aura of a princess with what people called a tsundere attitude. Her weapon was a huge scepter with a burning blade on the tip that seems as if it was put on lava for 5 minutes. The scepter was light blue and it also had electricity on the tip of the burning blade. This was the fiery princess Juliet.
“Humph, This is kind of waste thou, I will not like for my world to be turned into small particles...Not when I am very close to finishing “TERRA MAN: Defender of The Universe” series.” Romeno sweat-dropped at his partner's claims. She...and her anime, sometimes he wonders if she is taking this job seriously or not.
“Our target is Dione and Ragnarok. Use any force to make sure they are separated from each other.” Red told the group.
“Is Superior close?” Ben asked the red-haired leader who looks to the west.
“...It will take a while.” So he senses that it will take a few minutes to arrive here. Hmm...if that is the case…
“Alright, Mira try to not have too much fun.”
“OKAY~♪♫!”
“Troy...I will make an exception this time for your assistance.” That’s one hell of a way of telling him that he was willing to team up for a common enemy.
“...Come on, I am your father. Even if you didn’t tell me I will still get involved.” Troy told his son.
“...Just know that if you get in the way…”
“Yeah, Yeah, I’ll make sure that we don’t interfere if you plan on capturing the pearls.”
“...Humph…”
()
Dione and Ragnarok haven’t separated from each other. They shouldn’t...it will mean becoming weak. Being 15 feet apart is not an option for them.
Dodging a blast of energy from Aeris Dione responded with a blast of her very own.
Fighting almost an army wasn’t an issue for the 2 guardians. They have protected this world from disaster and evil for centuries. But now is different. This world cannot be saved, not as long as humans exist. They must destroy and reconstruct this world again. They are sure He would’ve done the same.
“Take this!” Frederick releases the red arrow toward Ragnarok but he was protected by Dione who created a barrier to surround him at the last second the beeping stopped and the arrow exploded.
“Ragnarok…” Dione looked above to see a water dragon coming her way. The ebony-haired female guardian cut the huge water dragon with mist surrounding it before a clanging sound backs her off a little much to her surprise. Inside the water dragon was Adel Möller who hid inside the dragon. Dione slightly struggles against the powerhouse before being saved by Ragnarok who forces Adel to back away from them.
“Are you alright, Dione?”
No time to get worried as Mira start shooting the two who deflect the barrage of bullets that were coming their way.
Ben and Romeno went closer as soon as the twin guardians were forced to land on The Armageddon. Using his Baton, Ben tries to hit Ragnarok aiming at his arm to neutralize him the ability to use the weapon he was holding in a said arm. Ragnarok responded by dodging with side steps before he roundhouses kick the man to the left of The Armageddon.
Dione using her barrier blocked the short sword while the sound of a chainsaw emitted from the sword itself.
This was a strong barrier for sure Juliet helped Romeno out with her Scepter blade slowly but effectively slightly cracking the barrier.
This however gave Dione the perfect opportunity to deliver her counter-attack. From those cracks, two white beams emitted hitting both Romeno and Juliet sending them far to almost one of the edges of The Armageddon.
The pressure didn’t stop afterward as Silvett shot a huge laser from her riffle while flying in the air thus shattering the barrier forcing Dione to jump out of the way.
Meanwhile, Ragnarok was dodging Team Omega’s attack while clashing with Richard, Sexan, and Harry respectively. The male guardian has been used to these kinds of battles. His twin sister too so it is no surprise that even outnumbered they weren’t outmatched. Even further, they know that they have one factor that they can rely on against humans...fatigue. Eventually, These humans will become tired and when that happens they will have an opportunity to wipe them all out for good.
“Give up...You can’t beat us, humans.”
“Don’t count us out yet!!” Richard responded to the ebony-haired male who parries the brown-haired swing before elbowing him in the back.
Harry used his speed to pressure Ragnarok, however, matched with his very own speed and blocked his attack.
“I will admit you are the descendants of the previous legendary piece owners. However, your strength is not comparable to them.”
“Oh? Then let me up to your expectations!!” Sexan came from above and unleash his Hyper Angel Savage Strike on Ragnarok who took the hit but not before Harry backed away.
“Humph! Master Thunderstorm Strike!!” Harry followed it up with his very own multiple slash attack making both attacks to merged and create an explosion.
“Humph, so much for being this dangerous entity.” Harry made the mistake of letting his guard down for a split second. Ragnarok capitalizes on it by extending his trident and stabbing Harris' arm.
“Gah!” Ragnarok proceeded to rotate Harry towards Sexan and slamming the two to the solid steel bending part of The Armageddon.
Sexan groaned before seeing Ragnarok walking toward them.
“Damn.” Sexan could barely move. Slamming a wounded Harry to him with such strength must have cause injuries inside him. The trident retracted out of the arm it was attached to and became its normal size.
“It is useless to try and stop us.” Ragnarok had to deflect bullets from Red and Troy before they could reach him.
“Seems you were willing to stop bullets considering that you claim to be unstoppable,” Troy remarked. The ebony-haired male entity simply looks at Troy coldly.
“Just like my son.” Murmured the private detective before continuing to shoot as his son goes to the other side for a better position to fire.
()
Dione was not liking getting further away from Ragnarok. She wasn’t getting weaker but her opponents were. Being free was good thou. However, she cannot enjoy her freedom with her twin brother if these humans are running among with their corruption.
She blocked the attacks from Majestic 12 members: Silvett, Marik, Nigel, and Yen. Fighting against all the long-ranged enemies was difficult but nothing she hasn’t dealt with before. However, She knows who the true threats were.
Dione jumped out of the way of an incoming pole before using incredible speed to dodge Yuma’s kunai. Her movement made her body nothing but a blur as she proceeded to dodge needles followed by missiles and even getting locked inside of a triangle-shaped maze.
“You’re a troublesome person to catch...or rather a legendary artifact for that matter,” Emuna told the ebony-haired female.
“...Why not accept your demise?”
“Why? Hmm, A human’s mistake doesn’t judge the rest of the world. One’s corrupted decision does not mean everyone thinks the same way as that person. Some people blindly will follow it but at the end of the day...there are people like us who stop their madness from coming to a reality.”
Dione’s response was only to create a wave with her long-ranged spear on the group.
“Ridiculous...No human can be trusted after one is attacked by it. Risking the entirety of the world in trusting humans after one of them show their true corrupted self is impossible.”
Not a risk that they are willing to take, huh? She doesn’t seem to have any fatigue. Goes to show the difference between humans and legendary artifacts. But...they must try to find a way to make sure they’re very far away from each other. The fate of the world depends on it!!
“Ha!”
Dione blocks the powerful blow of Alice sending a shock wave around them before sending her flying with her very own strength. This was the biggest threat out of everyone in this fight. She is confident that with her twin brother they can take care of the other legendary piece owners. However, the owner of The Sphere of Rage is another story. The more time they waste against the others, the stronger this girl will become it’ll come to a point that even their combined powers will not stand a chance against the incredible raw power of the red-haired Japanese female.
Being able to at least neutralize Romeno, Juliet, Marik, and Yen; Dione planed her counter-attack against Yuma and Adel.
Yuma and Dione's speed was similar to watching scouters slugging it out. Yuma using her Kunai sword blocked the incoming upward diagonally swing of the long-ranged spear of Dione sending her flying. This, however, put a stop to their speed battle and Adel followed with a swing of her very own. This forced the ebony-haired female guardian to dodge and float in the air to keep a distance.
“…!” Dione looked up to see the silver-haired woman charging the laser sniper to a point of the laser becoming a red ball before firing it in the ebony-haired female’s direction at lightning speed.
*Boom*
The explosion caused a small hole on The Armageddon. After a few minutes, Silvett had to dodge a few crystal spike balls that were going at bullet speed before one of them struck her right arm.
“You Still do not understand, do you?” The answer she received was not the one she was expecting.
“HAAA!!!” Using her strength, courtesy of her legendary piece, Alice slams her pole hard towards Dione causing the giant metal not working machine to shake while a strong sonic boom followed simultaneously.
(‘So strong!’) Kula thought. The orange-haired girl was worried thou, if this girl does turn it off then she will automatically be out of this fight due to the strong fatigue effect of the legendary piece. However, if she goes any further...she might have any difficulty fighting at all and that will be a worst-case scenario rather than just going to a deep slumber. And it is showing. The red-haired Japanese female was panting hard.
“YOU’RE THE ONE WHO DOESN’T UNDERSTAND!!” Dione responded by using her beyond lighting speed and knee her with a cold stare.
“…” The ebony-haired girl proceeded to elbow Alice on the back of her head resulting in the red-haired losing all of her strength.
“Alice!” Aeris yelled as she saw her friend fall to the metal floor with a thud.
Now that the strongest threat is neutralized Dione can focus on taking care of the other legendary piece owners. Hmm...she should finish her off...Yeah, that would be ideal...but…
“Get away from her…” That would not be possible as of now.
Genre has made sure that Dione was away from Alice using the beast himself to form metal spikes while hearing Nu-Metal on her headphones.
“Out of the way.” From above 12 small arrows flew and were aimed toward the ebony-haired female guardian who dodged them quickly. Seems that she sees Alice as a huge threat...well, she was until she got two shot by the guardian. Still, that’s the first time one of them specifically targeted one of them.
“Dione…” Ragnarok teleported right behind Dione.
“Ragnarok…”
“It seems that we must haste on this.”
“...Yes…” Both Guardian rose one of their hands together before a white light appeared from the palm of their respective hand (Dione’s left hand, and Ragnarok’s right hand). The light shot in the air before it split into hundreds of small line rays that went to the remaining people that were conscious. These dodged the attack as much as they could but some were hit by the explosions from it. Others like Aeris, Frederick, and Silvett were caught by some. How did they were alive afterward is a good question. Determination? Resiliency? Willpower? Many factors could be attributed to it.
The problem of this happening, however...Is that the situation they were trying to avoid from happening...Might still happen.
“This is the end…” Ragnarok started.
“Goodbye Humans…” Dione Continued as their giant orb that will eradicate the human race and destroy the core of The Earth and thus the Earth itself expanded.
“Do not worry…” Ragnarok told with a cold stare to the group.
“I am sure…” Dione knew it...this is the end...now all they need to do is re-construct this planet. She is sure that is what He would have done anyway.
“There will be a place for all of you.”
(‘Damn...come on body move!’) Richard thought in desperation. It cannot end like this! Even with the president warnings that he assumed were told by the president’s legendary piece, The Earth is going to be...His family, Alice, Aeris, all of their families! The players that he fought throughout the years in Omega. The rivals that are right here...Everyone!!
“Goodbye…” The blast was thrown down.
There was nothing the children could do...nothing that Majestic 12 nor Troy, Sherri, and Diane could do!! This was it!! They failed…
(‘Not yet…’)
Suddenly time stood still before a blast of energy went to the orb...followed by another...and another until the intensity of the multiple blasts could overpower the orb that would’ve destroyed humanity and Earth.
“…!!” A face of surprise was shown on the two guardians before they had to dodge the huge blast of white energy coming their way which keeps going until it was out of Earth and into space before it dissipated somewhere a few feet behind the moon.
“What…?” Richard was as confused as everyone else. Where did…?!
“Don’t think I will let you two destroy this planet…” That voice…!
“Rusher!!”
It was indeed Rusher...HOW IS HE STILL ALIVE!!? He only had half of his body but he was floating. He was panting too...With him, he had the legendary piece La Estrella Del Leopardo dangling on his neck glowing and awakened.
“Kula’s true freedom...I will keep it true!! Richard Kurosagi...I leave her in your care.” In his care…? Wait he is not going to…?!
“I do not know who you are…” Ragnarok said.
“But you will not stop the fate of the human race…” Dione continued before both said...
“They must perish!!”
Time stopped again as soon as another giant orb of energy was thrown by the twin guardians. Rusher was ready to stop this even at the cost of his life. That didn’t matter thou, and his legendary piece knew it. This was Rusher keeping a promise from her father...and the promise from the one that trains him to who he is today.
“HUAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!!”
*BOOM*
“Rusher!!”
(‘Goodbye...Master.’)
That was the last word of the legendary piece as she landed on the solid hard metal floor of The Armageddon and flickering slowly until it faded out. As for what remained of Rusher the one arm that stopped those orbs, landed on the ocean below before plundering to the abyss of the Mariana Trench.
After shielding from the number of strong winds that the explosion caused the teens looked at the smoke only to reveal that the twin guardians were still intact.
“We have said it before…” Ragnarok started…
“And we will keep repeating it until you humans learn…” Dione continued…
“Just accept your fate.”
Accept fate...hmm, the brown-haired owner of the real Diamond Dragonite has been thinking of something if all else failed...looks like that idea might be used after all.
“Well, I guess there is no other choice.”
“Rick?” Frederick was confused by the tone of his friend. It was as if he was leaving and perhaps not coming back or something.
“Is been a blast, guys. Aeris...I leave everything in your hands for now.” Everything in her hands…?
“What are you talking about...Wait a minute you are not going to…!?” Why is Harry getting slightly upset about…? Wait...is her childhood friend about to…! That’s crazy! They can’t beat these two together right now!! There is no way that her childhood friend will…!
Richard was dead serious about this. He was going to make sure to buy at least a bit of time so the others can strategize a plan to defeat them. Maybe, they should talk with the president, he will surely know what to do in this situation. His dad too...well no time to waste.
“See you later guys…!” With that, the brown-haired leader looked up to the twin guardians who were a few seconds away from unleashing another human extermination orb. He shouldn’t be this excited to fight these two. His life is on the line…but...just like his fight with Rusher...it just the way he likes it.
“D.O.B.I. initialize Samurai Village! Players: Richard Kurosagi...Dione and Ragnarok!!”
'Name of the players confirmed, Initializing, Dimensional Omega Bracelet Initiator.'
“See you later guys…!”
Before the pink-haired could reach her childhood friend the boy disappeared along with Dione and Ragnarok.
(‘They’re gone…’) Said Rubix.
He was gone...vanished...and perhaps...for the last time…
“Richard!!!!” Aeris might see the boy that she liked for a very long time.
()
Well, they are here in the big valley. Where Keinshin resides...at least in the game. Still as calm as it ever will be.
“What is this place…?” Ragnarok said surprised at the different changes in scenery.
“Explain Human…” Dione followed. She has never seen this place so long as she remembers...She also can feel they were no longer on planet Earth.
“Sorry, but you won’t be destroying Earth today. This is Omega a place where it has a better surface than our planet. You can shuck all the orbs that you can desire to the floor this is a core you won’t be able to destroy! Oh, and don’t bother trying getting out, I made sure we three are all locked in here until one of us is no longer alive!” Explained the brown-haired boy.
A world where their attacks won’t destroy it?
The twin guardians tested that…
*Boom*
The giant orb hit the floor of The samurai Village...The boy was telling the truth. Where their giant orb landed was only a medium size crater. This world...is perhaps hundreds of times sturdier than the Earth.
“I see…” Ragnarok initiated…
“You may have sent us here to prevent humanity’s extinction...for now…” Dione added…
“But it won’t matter…” Ragnarok continued...
“Sooner or later we will find a way out…” Ragnarok said pointing his trident to the boy that got them stuck here.
“And when we do…” The ebony female twin said as she points her long-ranged spear at Richard.
“All humans will seize to exist!”
Without wasting any time Ragnarok and Dione initiated their attack.
First was Ragnarok charging at incredible speed head-on to the brown-haired teen who blocked instantly.
Ragnarok pushed Richard further from Dione but not enough for Ragnarok to become weak or even making his twin the same. Richard knows that the only way to defeat them is to separate them, a task that is seemingly near impossible if their fight on Earth wasn’t a hint of it. Still, he is not going to give up that easily, Samurai Village is one of the largest stages in Omega. If any stage is going to achieve separating these two is this one!
“…!”
Richard had looked above them and saw Dione in the air ready to strike him with her long-ranged lance
…
*Clang*
Inches...it was just inches away of Richard Kurosagi losing his right eye...and his life for that matter…What saved him? It is all thanks to his Omega eyes copying the weapon of Ragnarok and blocking Dione’s spear with a ghostly version of the trident itself. The boy did his best to tilt the two away from him before he used his speed to swing and unleash a White Dragon Strike Fang in both directions which were dodged by the twin guardians before getting together and unleashing a fury of small chunks of fireballs toward the brown-haired teen.
Richard not wasting time twirl the ghostly trident to deflect every one of them causing them to explode in every direction except his.
The brown-haired boy was trying his best to keep up with the pace of the two twin guardians. So far he was, although this was because...the twin guardians were giving the boy false hope of being able to match them. They still have plenty of energy left and they won’t run out of it anytime soon. The human they are fighting, however...is just a matter of minutes.
Dione teleport behind Richard ready to attack him from behind. This. however, was intercepted by Richard upon reaction. Ragnarok followed through with his trident and it began a fast pace weapon dance between them all over Samurai Village.
One on one the boy might have a chance but with 2 vs 1 against legendary guardians who seemingly have limitless capacity power…? Is borderline impossible.
Ragnarok kicked Richard Kurosagi toward a mountain before Dione throws a blast of energy towards the same direction exploding upon impact.
Dione and Ragnarok were just then looking around the area to see if they felt the presence of their enemy.
It took a few seconds before they saw 5 huge lines coming their way.
“Humph…” Dione and Ragnarok used their combined strength to unleash a strong slash line that destroyed all the five white lines easily before their attack just took chunks of the earth's surface while the attack continued onward before exploding very far away.
This was not even a challenge to the twin guardians. He was delaying the inevitable.
“Are you done...human?” asked Dione. Her answer was a tornado as huge as El Reno coming towards them. Humph, Just a simple natural disaster. They have stopped some of them before when they protected Japan back then.
With their combined weapons the two guardians managed to tame the strong tornado and split it in half calming the strong winds before they could take some of their surroundings.
“…!”
Both Guardians looked upward north-west and saw magic runes glowing before some icicles were shot forcing them to side-step out of their current position at a fast pace.
He might be still inexperienced with being a magical but he’ll have to improvise on the fly if he ever going to have a chance against these two.
“White Dragon Strike Fang Cross!!”
Slashing both horizontally and vertically in rapid succession the boy created his signature thin white cross-line attack. However, Dione and Ragnarok counter with their very own combined earth slashing strike.
No matter what he did, the twin guardians seem to be able to overpower all of his moves.
A kick from Ragnarok sent the boy flying and crashing into some rocks before Dione follows it up with an energy ball that explodes in that direction.
Richard was re-thinking this move…
“Maybe I should’ve added Harry in this mix...or even Alice.” Having a Powerhouse by his side might have brought this fight into an almost even match. However, Alice was knocked out by what he assumed Dione and Harry seemed to be injured. Even if it was a slight chance it would be better than almost borderline impossible. Still...he feels very different...the excitement of fighting these two strong opponents?! He is not giving up thou!! He will find a way to beat them...even if he has to get beaten up 100 times to do so…
()
Alice was waking up from being knocked out cold by a powerful hit from one of the twin guardians. With a groan, Alice slowly stood up to see her teammates a bit somber. Why are they all somber? Wait where are the twin guardians? Even better...Where is…?!
“Where’s Richard…?” No response…
“Guys…?” seeing everyone’s expression...is making her…
“He is in Omega with those two,” Harry answered. If that’s the case then why…?
“Why are you guys…”
“Because we can’t…” Sexan said...They can’t...No...that…
“W-What do you mean we can’t…?” Slowly but surely Alice was catching on...Harry just confirmed her worries…
“The idiot just went and locked himself with those two just in case they tried to take the D.O.B.I. from his hand. He either has to beat them...or he dies trying.”
“Alice, I am sorry. If only any of us catch on when he was saying that he will leave everything in Aeris' hand we would have to make sure that one of us join him. However…” Considering the situation Sexan Arifer understood in a way why the brown-haired owner of the real Diamond Dragonite made this swift decision. It was either do this swift decision or watch as the world and his friends, family, and including himself get obliterated by the big ball of energy that will crash on Earth courtesy of the twin guardians.
“You’re kidding...there is no way that’s…” Slowly sanity was getting farther away from the red-haired girl and despair was replacing it.
“...I...Richard!! Waaaahhhhh!!!” She will not be able to see him again. Aeris was also sad…
“*hic*...*hic*...*sniff*” Never again will they see…
*BOOOMM*
What the…!? What caused that…?!
Something just landed in front of the group. That stopped the two crying childhood friends of Richard Kurosagi. In front of them...there was...a…
“PYON, Pyon!!” A giant Flemish Rabbit suit paws raised in the air.
*TA-DAHH*
What...in...the world is going on...!!!?
()
Okada Sakuretsu has seen him a few times through his political career. This boy...He was the one closest to The Human A.I. That suit there was no doubt it was.
“This should do it.” The boy said as he adjusted one final cable before he looked toward him.
“Er, you better tell your man to back away, this thing is...kind of loud when is on.” This small thing? It was not even the size of a touch-screened cellphone from I.VOD. How can something so small be so effective? Then again...The Human A.I. is famous for having the strangest inventions.
“...Alright. Man stay back and stand your ground!!” Commanded Okada.
“AH!! I forgot!!” He handed a pair of fluffy cat headphones to him.
“You better put this on, and your soldiers too.” Cat ear headphones? Why…?
Even the soldiers were questioning the effectiveness of these things. Very strange inventions indeed. Nevertheless, Okada did put them on and was surprised to see the results of these devices.
Nothing...no sound. Even the hard leap pipe the boy threw to the flour...no sound...these things even if they look ridiculous to some people...they are very effective.
“Saia made them. She is...um, how should I say...very fond of cute animals...especially, rabbits, puppies, and kittens.” Even he doesn’t understand his superior's taste in their technology. Her ideas could work with plain designs but she says that it is boring and plain and it will not catch the eyes of the people. We need to captivate the people!! Know that cuteness brings the world around!!! His superiors...sometimes he wonders why…
“I couldn’t catch anything you said,” Okada told him. He didn’t, these things were very great at soundproofing. If these things have this effect…!
“Oh sorry!! Er, forget I said anything!!” This small thing...can stop the mega-tsunami coming their way.
“Everyone has been escorted to safety sir.”
“...Good…”
“Did you get them 79.7 meters away from us?” Asked the brown with yellow on the bottom roots of his hair boy. This time he was acting more as a higher-up than previous minutes ago. The green eyes 21-year-old was very close to The Human A.I. thanks to the fact that she herself chose him as the second in command for Majestic 12. This is the first time this year that they have come out like this. It is the first time since he was named second in command that he and The Human A.I. has ever come out of their HQ. Michael Aubin has been with her for 3-4 years and there is still so much he is learning from her. But that is why...
The small cube with a trumpet-like megaphone unleashed a loud sound that created some sort of sonic. As the incoming mega-tsunami was approaching the sound wave made sure that it blocked its path toward the coast of Japan. A second sound wave made sure that it broke into smaller waves which did reach the coast but as normal waves. With such a small device, the disaster was stopped. Now...there is only one thing left to do…And that thing he will leave it to his superior.

What...In the world...is in front of them? That was the question that Team Omega, Harry, and Sexan were wondering as they saw the Giant Rabit suited robot? Hop around.
“USA, USA, PYON...USA, USA, PYON, USA, USA, PYON!!!!” WHAT THE HELL IS IT SAYING!!!?
“Superior.” Superior? That thing is their superior?! The Bunny Suit looked toward and when it saw Red it…
“What…?!” That thing was there not even a second ago!! How is that huge thing able to move that fast.
“USA, USA, PYON?!” SPEAK ENGLISH!!!
“No, we are fine.” He understood that?!
“...USA, USA.”
“...Dione and Ragnarok are unfortunately somewhere inside of Omega with Richard Kurosagi. He locked himself with them.” The bunny robot puts its hands on its mouth as an expression of “Oh my!”. It will explain why it's seeing the pink-haired girl and the red-haired girl with watery eyes.
“Pyon.”
“...I…Do not think is a good idea.” The bunny’s ears flapped down before it teleports toward Troy with the same speed. Sexan and Harry can now tell...this speed was beyond lighting level...maybe light speed.
“USA!!!”
“...Fufu, it has been a while...Saia.” OKAY HOW!? HOW DOES THOSE TWO UNDERSTAND ANYTHING THAT FAT RABBIT IS SAYING?! Wait…! Saia, as in The Human A.I. Saia?! That is the one inside the suit?!
“USA, USA, PYON, PYON, PYON...USA!!!”
“Well, is kind of difficult if one of us doesn’t co-op. As for the second question they are up there.” He signals to the aircraft floating above them. This is ridiculous where on earth, did he got her questioning him twice from those HOP, HOP, BUNNY, BUNNY?!
Saia’s bunny suit’s ears flapped down before they went up and put her hands together in an “I got it!” expression. She then put them together and puts each other's hands together in a hand-shake lock.
“USA!! USA!! PYON!!” Is she trying to tell them to amend?! Well, she is someone who doesn’t like seeing family conflicts. But it is not easy as a handshake.
After a while, Red sighed. His superior sometimes act silly, but she does know what is right for the sake of the world.
“You know, shaking your hand like this...reminds me of the good old times,” Troy told his son.
“...I still will not forgive you.”
“Redgan...is been 4 and a half years since that day...move on. Don’t forget her but move on. She would not have liked it if you keep remembering the past and not move on to a better future. Is best we can do for her.”
“How can you…?”
“You think is easy to forget how she died? I wanted closure to that dark chapter in our lives, With LeDutch gone back then that chapter was closed. LeDutch coming back just opened a new chapter. You and I should know how personal that man was to us. With him gone and hopefully for good this time we can just live and work together. Like the father and son that we abandoned being years ago.”
“…”
“...Usa…” Tch, superior’s putting her bunny ears down didn’t help the situation any further!!
“...Fine, I will be looking forward to having some...quality time with you...father.” That put a smile on Troy’s face.
“Wouldn’t have it any other way.”
“Er, sorry to interrupt this family make-up section but…”
“PYON!!!” That’s right! She completely forgot that Richard Kurosagi is still inside Omega with Dionne and Ragnarok!!
Well, that can be easily solved.
“PYON, USA, PYON!!!”
“You can do that Saia!!?” Troy said surprised at how the young girl could manage to find a way in even if it becomes inaccessible.
The big bunny suit with very high speed appeared in front of the red-haired teen.
“…” So...this is Ayame’s Granddaughter…Yep, exactly like her. Now then…!!
“PY…….ONNNNNN!!!!” Clapping her big metal paws, Saia slams her left paw to the hard metal of The Armageddon. A small pulse emitted from the palm before she separated her hand from The Armageddon’s surface.
“PYON!!!” With both huge paws, the bunny ripped opened the circle wide open.
“What the?!” Harry cannot believe it!! Neither does the other teens! That giant bunny...just open some sort of portal, by ripping the surface of the deadly machine!!
“Unreal!!” Frederick said. For being someone in a somewhat kind of childish huge bunny outfit and acting like a bunny...this person is so powerful to open portals!!
“Usa…”
“Eh?” Alice was confused. She has no idea what she just said…
“She opened a portal...it seems she found a way to get to your friend Richard Kurosagi.”
“REALLY?!” Alice went from feeling despair and sadness to hope and happiness. They can help him now!! He doesn’t have to fight alone!
“Yes…”
“Thank You!!!”
*Push*
“Eh…” What did...did that Giant bunny just…!!
“Huh?”
“EEEEEEEEEEEEHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!”
“WAHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!”
“ALICE!!” Sexan yelled before the portal just closed.
“HEY, WHAT DID YOU DO?!”
“Pyon?”
“Relax, Saia knows what she is doing...I think.” Troy said to the children. He, think? Even he isn’t sure why the girl inside the rabbit pushed the red-haired into that ripped wormhole that landed her into Omega!? And why is she hoping?! Is she even taking her actions seriously?!
Sexan just hopes that Troy is right, because who knows where she winded up in!!
()
“WAAAHHHHHHHHH!!”
*PUFF*
As the red-haired landed in the cold snow that is the Icicle World the wormhole that was above her closed down.
“Ow, huh?!” Alice realized that she was no longer in the real world. This was Icicle World and...IT WAS VERY COLD!!
“Is cold isn’t it?”
“You have no…” Wait, who said that?! The red-haired female looked around. Nothing...nobody was there until she came face to face with a small fairy size bunny girl.
“Hello, Pyon!”
“WHO ARE YOU?!” A talking bunny girl was floating in front of her...This day has been insane.
“Miss Saia created me to guide you toward your destination!” Lady Saia? Is she talking about that person with the giant Flemish bunny robot suit that only said Pyon and Usa?
“She knows that you are the only one that can help Kurosagi, She said the legendary piece you hold can give you limitless power so long as you don’t over-exceed the time limit or you get knocked down, pyon.” Ah yes! She no longer is in rage anymore! That means most of her strength that she build is completely gone.
“Ah, yes, she told me to mentioned that if you used it already around a percentage of it will remain with you permanently, Pyon!” So she still has some strength in her? That seems very great at that rate wouldn’t she be the strongest in the group in a few days?
“Is this where Richard is?” Questioned the red-haired girl to the small bunny.
“...Not really, Usa. Miss Saia knew that opening a gate to a specific place will take a long time so she decided to do it quickly, Pyon.”
“Oh...But why did she push me?”
“Hmm...She figures that you were the most suited to help Richard Kurosagi, Usa.” She? She is not that strong unless she stays in that state for a long time. She might not have enough time at this point to even get in the same level as anyone in the group!
“Um, I don’t know about that.”
“If Miss Saia has confidence in you. Then that means is 100% true!!”
“If you say so…” She wishes she had as much confidence as what the girl in the big cybernetic rabbit suit had in her. But, that girl was quick. She might be even stronger than anyone in the group including Emuna. I mean she is the superior of those people who’s lead by the son of a detective it seems.
“How do I get to where Richard is?”
“Oh leave everything to me, Pyon!! You start building up, Usa!” Start...building...hmm...yeah...that will be great…
()
This wasn’t even a blow-for-blow fight anymore. It was clear who had the advantage in this fight. 2 vs 1 can go either way with a slight odds advantage to the two-person team but this…?! Yeah, not even close.
“You cannot win…”
“Why don’t you give up…” Even so...he still will not…
“Not happening…”
“...So be it…” Dionne does not understand this human. He still defies his inevitable fate instead of accepting he cannot stop them from destroying the existence of humanity.
“We’re through playing around human.” Ragnarok wants to end this here and now. The sooner they do the faster they can manage to find a way to get back to Earth and end humanity’s existence of corruption.
He did all he could...Hopefully, Alice would have recovered and been able to defeat these two. His dad and President Leos would’ve found a way too. Yeah, if he dies here, at least he bought enough time for them to find a way to beat these two. Although he will not be able to answer one thing...That is…
What is better? Anchovies or Pineapple on a pizza?! That will be one of his regrets in the life of not discovering.
A giant orb was created by the twins. Once they get rid of this boy...it will all be over.
“Is time…” Ragnarok said.
“To come back to reality,” Dionne told the brown-haired boy.
Dionne and Ragnarok unleashed their Giant Orb.
As the orb approached the boy something happened.
Some will say is a miracle from the heavens. Others will say this is lady luck striking the jackpot on a misfortune soul. Either conclusion one thing is for sure.
“HUAHHHHHHHHH!!!” Alice has launched a giant orb out of orbit with her red pole.
“Alice?”
“Phew…” How did his childhood friend managed to come here or is he hallucinating right now.
*Stretch*
“OW, OW, OW, OW!!!” The brown-haired boy started to yelp as the small bunny fairy stretched his left cheek.
“No hallucination here, Richard Kurosagi.”
“Are you okay?” his red-haired girl asked him.
“Other than a few cuts and a stretch cheek...Yeah never been better.” Richard Kurosagi replied to Alice. He says that but at this rate the boy will be with nothing.
“Er, Alice you’re kind of drooling a bit.”
“Oh!!” Alice wiped what is left of her drooling. No time to fantasize about her hot childhood friend right now.
“Ragnarok…”
“Yes, I can see...she can control it…” Ragnarok acknowledged.
“Even so...is not a matter of “how is she able?” but a matter of “How long?”.” Said the male twin.
“You must separate them, Pyon! Is the only way!”
“Easier said than done,” Richard told the fairy bunny.
“Richard.” So they are making their move.
“Alice, Try and get Dione as far away. I’ll try and keep Ragnarok busy!”
“...YES!” Alice told her childhood friend. With her pole in hand, the female vanishes before appearing in front of Dione much to the twin’s surprise. Luckily, Dione has the reactions of a cat and barely blocked the strong pole but that caused them to get further away from Ragnarok.
“You’re fighting me now!” Richard told Ragnarok as he had to block the boy’s Kris Dagger.
“…!” Ragnarok glared at the boy before twirling his Trident to the left to back the boy away from him. He was feeling weak...he must get to his twin sister and stop the Hishikawa from getting stronger...otherwise…
()
Dione has to get back to her brother Ragnarok. She can feel it. Any moment she will turn back into her orb form. She cannot allow being separated from her twin brother again!
Alice tried to hit the ebony-haired female but Dione's speed despite being weakened is very agile even with Alice getting a speed boost from her very own legendary piece.
It was a stalemate at this point. However, in due time Dione knew that the red-haired girl would out-speed her and eventually catch on.
Throwing blue orbs toward the red-haired, Dione combined this offense with a few extended stab attacks that increased in speed the more orbs she unleashed on Alice.
Alice in self-defense spun her red chained-pole to deflect some of the orbs and dodge almost every stab attack some escaped her defense but they only grazed her arms.
“You are becoming a problem to us...the both of you.”
“Not like you two aren’t!!”
Learning from last time Alice reacted to the incoming knee strike from Dione that knocked her out previously before grabbing The ebony-haired girl and throwing her away.
This forces Dione to get farther away from Ragnarok, meaning that she will get weaker if her body fading slowly wasn’t proof of that.
“Extend!!” Alice split her pole revealing the hidden chain that attaches both halves.
Dione tried to cut the chain to halve the strength of the red-haired female. This, however, proves to be false as the chain didn’t break at all. Solid as diamond...or even stronger than that.
“…!” The other half of the pole retracts and snared Dione up.
“I got you now!!” Alice screamed at Dione as she starts spinning the ebony-haired twin before slamming her hard to the ground.
*CRASH*
()
Meanwhile, Kurosagi and Ragnarok battle has been sped up by both male warriors. The only thing that a human eye could see was yellow sparks in the air and ground.
Sonic-booms followed each blow making the ground underneath their fight shake on each attack.
While Ragnarok knew about the infinite amount of stamina he has, his energy was another story. The further away he is from his twin sister...the weaker his body felt. This was the first time that the ebony-haired male shows signs of concern and even worry. It seems that this calls for that. It will not be as effective as if he was with his sister but...it will be effective enough for him to get the upper hand and finish quickly so he can help Dionne and not be separated ever again!!
“Got you!” This is…
“I never wanted to resort to this...but you leave me no choice, human.” Dodging Richard’s attack, Ragnarok jumped and touched Kurosagi’s left shoulder first. Then, dodge another attack and touch the right side where Richard’s liver would be. Finally, he vanished before touching the brown-haired boy’s back where his spinal cord would reside.
The brow-haired boy turned around before he felt his body go numb.
*thud*
(‘What’s happening to me?’)
“I’ll take care of you later.” Ragnarok didn’t have much time he has to get to Dionne quickly before he just goes back to being just a legendary artifact. If that happens it will take a lot of time to become whole again...and he will not allow that to happen to both of them. This was close as his body showed it was becoming transparent by the seconds. This was the main reason he couldn’t kill the brown-haired boy right now, the weapon will just harmlessly not pierce the boy's flesh, it will simply go through, like a ghost passing through walls and doors.
“Get...back...here!!” yelled Richard as Ragnarok left. A few seconds later Alice was fighting or trying her best to fight off the twins.
“Alice…” Richard just couldn’t move. What the hell did Ragnarok do to him?!
The red-haired girl was struggling. Even with her legendary piece, two on one is still two on one. She blocked the spear from Dionne but now Ragnarok joins his sister and kicked the girl hard that she was sent flying and crashing to the ground at high speed while spinning sideways in mid-air.
“Lady Alice!!”
“Sister, we need to finish her quick.”
“Yes...if we leave her alive she would cause too much trouble to a point that we cannot stop her even with our max strength.” Dione was no fool. She knew how powerful their opponent was. She is an even bigger threat than Kurosagi.
Kurosagi could only watch as they approached the red-haired girl who seems to be out of it. They were going to kill her...No…
“Stop…”
“This is the end…” Stop…
“STOPPP!!!”
*Swish*
*Slooch*
Blood...that is what the boy saw...these two...they have…!!
“HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!” The legendary piece...it glowed but with it a black mass surrounded it.
“What the?”
“…!” Dione and Ragnarok felt a huge presence coming from their left. What is this?! A giant black mass was surrounding the area where Ragnarok left the brown-haired boy. This energy...was corrupted...and rising fast. Whatever it is...it is not a good sign for everyone in this area.
()
Omega and the first Kurosagi felt this...this feeling...it was…
“Oh no…” Kurosagi...his despair and anger...is going to blind him...The diamond Dragonite is awakened...but...this feeling...the corruption is here...is just a matter of time before the dark dragon...is born.
