Disclaimers come from a can they were put there by a man in a factory downtown. ....... sorry but our fics contain only fresh ingrediants. No room for canned disclaimers here.


"Here it stands. The captain is gone. The chosen one has been defeated, and only two exhausted warriors remain to challenge an invincible enemy. In the captains absence I will record the events as they unfold. If anyone is reading this then that means we've won the day. If not then only God's eyes will ever lay upon these pages." Jase continues to write as the destruction continues around him.

The Jurai trees also observed. Gomisaki is in bad shape as Hogo looks over her. "what was that Tsunami said about breaking the bond?" Kyusai asked. Gomisaki struggled to speak "n.....no......I....would... rather......die than ......forsake.....my master...." then she again lost conciousness.

"Fools. Thanks to you're energy blast I've been able to speed the realization of my plan." Armewgedon lifted the sword of the whole over his head. It was glowing even brighter than before. "The sword absorbs all energy. Even that directed against it. I must admit you overwhelmed my senses for a moment. But now......." Armewgedon needn't finnish his sentance. Everything he needed to say was in the next blast he issued fourth. The unexpected attack leveled Shane and Mac before they even had a chance to put up their deffences.

Armewgedon looked over to the collection of renegades. Among them was his own creation, Misty. He looked over to her. "Traitorous girl. I gave you life and you betray me. I understand now that it is the place of all creations to despise their creator. I was mistaken to have made you. Even a human with a pure heart is too easilly corrupted by this world." Armewgedon turned away giving an unrecognizable gesture over his shoulder.

The wall behind Misty began to shake and crack. She took notice of this and stepped back cautiously. The wall then gave way the rubble falling right where Misty had just stood. Through the wall stepped a large striped Charrizard. Misty then knew what Armewgedon's gesture meant. She remembered it clearly now. Remembered he had given it before. Whenever one of his experiments failed. And she recognized the Charrizard as well. The one who always responded to the command. The command to kill the experiment. And this time she was the experiment. The creature stepped forward fire already building in its mouth. Misty stepped back. Each pace the Charrizard made forward was one more Misty made back. Misty took one more pace back and tripped over a peice of rubble. The Charrizard reared back as it prepared to attack. But just as the deadly flame was ready to leap from its mouth the whole creature dissapeared in a red streak and the fire fizzled out as a black pokeball fell to the ground.

Now in front of Misty stood Ash whom was collecting the ball. "The master ball. Ash you saved me." Said Misty with a joyful look in her eyes. "You may not be the real Misty but regardless of who you are I couldn't bear to see another innocent life taken by Mewtwo's insane ambition." Ash responded. "But weren't you planning to put Mewtw....Well Armewgedon now. Anyway weren't you going to put him in there?" "They'll have to find another way to defeat him. But I won't see one more person die simpy becuase I did nothing to stop it." Misty leaned over and huged Ash. Ash was silent for a moment unable to form a response. But the silence was broken by the thundering footsteps of the Massive Armewgedon. They turned their attention back to the resuming battle.

Armewgedon aproached the badly battered Shane and Mac They attempted to pull their legs back under them. Armewgedon kicked Shane in the stomach and sent him hurtling across the arena. He then approached Mac, placed his foot on Mac's head and began to apply pressure. "First the fool who thought he could change me, then the chosen one, and now you. It's a pity you humans die so easilly, or I might get some feeling of satisfaction." Mac felt his skull would cave in at any moment. But just as he believed his death would be issued by the sound of a sickenening crack a different noise interupted. A blast came from the side and tipped Armewgedon off balance. Mac took the oportunity to roll out of the way and get back on his feet. Armewgedon regained his ballance and looked to the source of the attack. A protal was open and out of it stepped none other than Ray in Ultimate Chosen one form. Mac looked over to Ray "Ray? But I saw Armewgedon kill you." "Nah. I thouht I was dead for a second there too but for some reason instead he split the two halves of my body into two seperate beings. One pure human and one pure vortex. But thankfully I found a way to temporarilly pull the two of us together for the fight." Ray answered. Armewgedon looked pretty peeved "What? I thought I killed you!" "You came close, but not close enough." "Then I'll finnish the job now!" Armewgedon took the sword in both hands. "Armewgedon stop! This has gone too far. Look at what you've become. Look at what you're doing. You say that humans take away the rights of other beings but what about yourself? Would you take away what we humans deserve. A chance to live our lives? The chance to grow up and fall in love? You've become everything you despise most." Said Ray with determination and grit. "SILENCE!!!! You deserve what you get! Every human will feel my pain! Every human will understand suffering!" Armewgedon Retorted. "No, I will stand up for every living thing! We all will. Not only those who are fighting here now. But those who's hearts are with us. Those who's lives depend on us. Those whom have gone before us. And those who sacrificed thier lives so that others may live. Those who love us will be our strength." "Love? And have you, a member of the race who found it so easy to deny me such a thing, have you found your love in this heartless world?" "......Yes." "Ah, I can see it in your heart. Abbie, is that her name?" "WHAT!?" "Well you needn't worry. Once I've disposed of you she will be joining you shortly. You can be with her forever. Wouldn't you like that?" "YOU BASTARD!!!!!!!!!" Ray rushed in at Armewgedon. Unfortunately he was met with a surprize. He found that he accidently reverted to human form just in time to recieve what can only be called the sucker punch from Hell. "DAMN! I lost controll of my emotions. I can't fight if I can't maintain my concentration."

"OH NO!" Mac exclaimed. "What?" asked Shane who was just now recovering. Didn't you see that? Armewgedon read Ray's mind. He's recovering from the effects of the darkstone and regaining controll of his psychic powers. Which if I'm right means he's going to be able to enchance his controll on the sword of the whole." "So you're basicly saying we're screwed right?" "It's not just us who are gonna be screwed if he's going to do what I think he's about to do. He's about to release the full power of the sword." "If I knew I was gonna die today I would have eaten more chocolate."

Armewgedon stood holding his sword in both hands. Mac, Shane, and Ray stood at the ready. "Now humans. I releas the sword's full power. SAY GOODBYE TO EXISTANCE!!! EEEEEEEEYYYYYYYAAAA.....WHAT?....." Armewgedon stopped for a moment. "I sense something entering this dimension." Shane looked to his computer. "Something BIG is coming through a portal somewhere in orbit!" He says. Just then His communicator rings. He picks it up and finds it projecting the face of....Palpatine of all people. "Darth Frag called in a favor. So I sent in the cavalry. Now brace yourselves because Sith is about to happen!" He says and cuts the transmission.

In orbit a massive portal opens and from it emerges a massive warship. "WHAT THE HELL! THAT'S THE EXECUTOR!" Shane exclaims. The ship fires off rounds from its various weapons which rain on the ground like brimstone from the sky. Armewgedon looks up and points his sword skyward. He concentrates for a moment afterwhich the sword extends into the air and out of view ultimately empaling the executor in orbit. Everyone looks up dropjawed at the spectacle. Moments after he retracts his sword Armewgedon enjoys a massive fireworks display in the form of the executor exploding. Shane's communicator emmits various explitives and finally Palpatine screaming. "YOU GUYS ARE SCREWED!"

"I guess we're alone now." says Shane with a look of dishope on his face. "It was a good fight. I was glad to fight with all of you. I'm sure I'll see you in heaven. Still sad that I never got to do everything I wanted in life. Become famous, fall in love that sort of thing. And I'm sorry Frag had to have died in vain." Said Mac also dissheartened. Armewgedon had already begun to re-innitiate his move to unleash the sword's full power. "HAh, now you see how weak your kind really is. Hate is all consuming. It envelopes you and I and the entire universe. Did you think with the power of love alone you could defeat me? Your pitiful light will be extingueshed like a candle before a gale."

Ray stood not being able to help. He did the only thing he could. He prayed. "God, I guess this is the time you chose to end the world. But, then why did you let evil win in the end? Or are you planning some last minute miracle..." another explosion interupted Ray. "IF YOU ARE YOU HAD BEST HURRY UP!"

Armewgedon stood with the sword of the whole held high above his head and glowing in an unearthly light. "Now with this feast of rage, with all my hate, all my suffering, all of my pain, I unleash the force which shall make you humans extinct. NOW......."

A brilliant white light issued from the sword and englufed everything. "YYYYEEEEEEEESSSSSS!!!!!!!" The light continued to expand. It blinded the 3 fighters, the renegades, and the trees. It expanded still further beyond the island. Eventually it engulfed the planed and continued to expand filling the solar system and engulfing other star systems eventually consuming entire galaxies untill the whole of the universe was all one blinding light. The heros could feel the force beginning to work against their bodies, and could hear the scream of Armewgedon. "AS IT WAS IN THE BEGINNING, IS NOW AND FOREVER SHALL BE! AMEN TO THAT!"

The light then faded. Armewgedon Gazed at the warriors and their companions who remained. "What? Why are you still there? No matter. If you have somehow survived I'll tear you apart myself." Armewgedon Prepared to initiate an attack but realized one very imprtant thing was missing. The sword of the whole was no longer in his hands.

A deep booming voice issued from above. It seemed to the young heros that it was both within and around them all at once. "HALT CREATURE." Armewgedon looked to its source. There decended before him the figure of a tall man. He looked like any ordinary man of high stance and strong build, except for a few very prominent features. He was clad in golden armor which conformed to his muscles perfectly following every contour, his blond hair didn't seem like hair at all but rather a sort of living flame which burned without consuming, and most prominent of all were four huge white feathered wings jutting from his back. His wingspan on either pair had to be at least twenty feet.

"IT IS TRULY SAD THAT THE SWORD WAS SUMMONED FOR THE PURPOSES OF EVIL. YOU HAVE USED THE FOUR PARTS OF THE WHOLE TO BRING EVIL INTO THIS WORLD. YOU WILL NOW BE JUDGED BY THE HOLY WRATH OF GOD!" is all he said before launching an enormus white beam from a a foot in front of him without even gesturing. The beam engulfed Armewgedon and plowed through the wall behind him. He dissapeared in the ensuing explosion and did not emerge. Everyone stood in disbelief at the spectacle they had just witnessed. With one effortless attack this new warrior had defeated what had just moments ago seemed an impossible opponent. Mac was carefully studying the apperance of this new creature as Shane simply stared at the pile of rubble expecting Armewgedon to burst out at any moment.

Ray looked up "IT'S ABOUT FREKKING TIME!" He yelled half joking. "Is it over?" Asked Shane. Ray walked forward to confront the angelic figure. "Thanks but.....who or what are you?" He asked. He didn't like the answer. "I AM CALLED SARAPHIM. ANNGEL OF THE EARTH. THE GAURDIAN OF THE WHOLE. SINCE THE BEGINNING OF TIME MY BEING HAS BEEN WITHIN THE FOUR PARTS OF THE WHOLE." "Hi, I am Shane McInnis, I have been the gaurdian of chocolate and women of this realm for a long time, we have something in common," Shane said as he reached up his hand. Saraphim quickly snapped his head over to look at Shane and raised his hand. "WOAH MAN I AM JUST TRYING TO BE POLITE!" Shane screamed as he jumped back. He then said something under his breath that isn't appropriate for younger readers.

Saraphim then continued his speech. "WHEN THE FIRST WAR WITH LUCIFER ENDED MOST ANGELS EITHER WERE CAST INTO HELL WITH HIM OR RETURNED TO HEAVEN TRIUMPHANTLY. I AM ONE OF A VERY FEW WHO REMAINED HERE. I AM THE SUPREAM OF THE EARTHLY ANGELS. AND THE JUDGE OF THIS WORLD. I KNEW THAT IT WAS INEVITABLE THAT THE FOUR PARTS WOULD BE ASSEMBLED FOR EITHER JUSTICE OR GREED. SO I HAVE SLEPT WITHIN THEM WAITING FOR THE DAY WHEN I WOULD PASS JUDGEMENT. NOW THAT DAY HAS COME." "So you judged Armewgedon right?" asks Shane. "NOT ONLY HIM BUT THE ENTIRE WORLD WHICH WOULD CREATE HIM. I DECIDED THAT IF I WERE EVER AWAKENED IN THE NAME OF GREED THEN THE WORLD HAD PROGRESSED BEYOND ALL HOPE. IT IS TIME TO SAVE THE INNOCENT SOULS AND DAMN THE GUILTY. AND FURTHERMORE TO TEAR DOWN THE WORLD AND START ALL OVER."

"So you're saying you're an angel of appocolypse? Is that it? Well I don't buy that. It isn't the place of any man and not even an angle to choose the fate of the world." Shane said in deffiance. "Do you think you can just take our lives and futures away. what about those souls who are yet to find salvation? What about those who are yet to come? I defy your false judgement!" Mac retorts.

Saraphim looks shocked for a moment then his face returns to its forboding appearance. He turns and extends his hand to Ray. "Then Chosen one. You the holy warrior of God will surely find your place in Heaven. Will you come away from this world? Your job here is done."

Ray hesitates for a moment. The look in his eyes told that he was struggling with everything he ever believed in. He finnally answers "NO!" jerking his hand away from Saraphim. "You expect me to help you destroy all of this? I grew up here, I have friends here, this is my home. There is no way that I am going to help you! I don't care what your decision is. I won't let you carry it out. You think that one event can determin the fate of the entire universe. That all that matters is the final product of good and evil's conflict? What about our lives and those of the ones we love. If it all ends now what about our future. Don't you see that it's not just the final product but the every day victories and failures that make life worth living. We take the good along with the bad. otherwise we would never grow. I too defy you Saraphim. You may be stronger than me. mabey a thousand times, mabey a million times, probably a lot stronger than that. But no matter what. I refuse to just die. I will not lied down. I will not surrender. WE WILL NOT BE EXTINGUISHED AND WE WILL NOT GO SILENTLY INTO THE NIGHT! I WILL FIGHT YOU!"

Mac also steps forward "I was never much of a gambler but today I'm going to go against the odds. I too will stand against you Saraphim."

Shane steps forward. "I've got too much living to do to die now. I can't make any promises but I'll try. And Ray, If I let you down you can spend all of eternity kicking my ass."

Ray looked over to Shane "Yeah, and if we win I'll buy you a planet made of chocolate."

"DO YOU TRULY THINK YOUR DEFIANCE WILL HALT ME EVEN MOMENTARILLY? THEN COME. TRY YOUR POWER AGAINST MINE. BUT YOU CANNOT POSSIBLY STAND AGAINST AN ANGEL OF THE LORD. FOR I HAVE BEHIND ME THE INFINITE POWER OF GOD." Said Saraphim lifting himself off the ground.

The last capable warriors stood in front of him. "Hey you, big dark and holy, if you wanna rumble you came to the right place" Shane said Drawing his weapon.

Ray focussed his mind and returned to Ultimage Chosen One form. "Alright everybody. This is the end of the game so lets make this play count. This one's for love. This one's for life. This one's for hope, and humanity. This one's for the future!"

Mac took a battle stance "Like Frag always said. No matter how hopeless the sitiuation, I WILL NEVER GIVE UP!"


the conclusion is only 1 fic away. get ready for it.
