The End... But a new Beginning - Final Chapter
The corpse of Mason, decayed and lifeless, washes ashore in Vector territory. Vectorian soldiers pick up what's left of his body and take it to their clan hall. When they arrive they drop the corpse inthe middle of their clan hall and yell, "Grab the drinks boys and girls it's time to celebrate! We have delivered what is left of the Tripower leader!" The guards begin to dance around the corpse spitting and pouring their beers on it. The celebration echoes through their clan hall. Xeptimus enters the room and sees everyone cheering and dancing. One of the guards hand Xeptimus a beer. Xeptimus stabs the guard to death and drinks the beer, "Have some respect people! Even though he was an enemy he was the leader of Tripower. Don't you fools know I could have killed him while he was here?!" Xeptimus picks up the corpse and walks away. The celebration has suddenly turned into a room of confusion. Xeptimus places Mason's remains in front of their healer. The healer chants a few words and a few wounds close but no life enters the body. The healer sighs. Xeptimus takes Mason's body and puts it in an empty chamber and closes the door. As Xeptimus locks the door a hand pushes him in the back, "I see you have tried to bring him back to life." Klaus says,"I was invisible and saw you take him to the healer." Xeptimus draws his sword but before he can strike Klaus disappears. A voice says,"Relax brother, I just want to know why?" Xeptimus answers, "He is our enemy but he was a great person in the battlefield. What is left of Tripower if he is gone? We all know that they are rebuilding their ranks and I hate to say this but I believe Mason can join our battle and make a difference against our enemies or whom ever stands in our way." Klaus appears out of thin air and says, "Grab what is left of Mason and let's take a walk." Xeptimus picks up Mason's body. Klaus snaps his fingers and chants a few words and suddenly a gate appears in the room. "After you." Klaus says as he motions Xeptimus to enter the gate. Xeptimus enters the gate and disappears and soon after, Klaus follows and the gate closes. They appear atop of one of the highest mountains in Vector. Klaus looks over the mountain edge and notices sharp rocks and says, "This is perfect. Put his body by the edge and back away. Give me a few moments while I work my magic." Xeptimus places the body of Mason where Klaus stands and backs away. Klaus kneels over Mason's body and opens his wings. He chants many words and bright multi-colored lights suddenly appear around Klaus. Xeptimus tries to see what is happening but the lights are far too bright. Klaus yells some words and suddenly the lights disappear. Klaus closes his wings, stands and claps the dust off his hands. Klaus kicks the body of Mason over the edge. "What!!!" Yells Xeptimus as he runs toward the edge. Klaus raises his hand to stop Xeptimus from coming too close to the edge and says, "Wait brother and stand back." Suddenly a streak of yellow rises from the mountain base and heads towards the sun. Like a bolt of lightning coming from the heavens, the streak crashes in front of them causing a huge dust cloud making Klaus and Xeptimus shield their eyes. When the dust clears there is a figure in the center of a meteor size hole in the ground. Klaus nods to Xeptimus and Xeptimus moves toward the figure. The figure is surrounded by mirror like shields. The shields move away from its body and then retract to its back. "It's Mason!!!" Xeptimus exclaims. Mason stands up and stretches. He looks completely different. His body looks like a human but metal shiny wings extend from his back. They move around as if they are one with Mason. Mason's black hair is gone and replaced with bright blonde hair that stops to his chin. His eyes are as bright as a bolt of lightning. He flaps his metal wings and starts to walk towards Klaus and Xeptimus. Xeptimus begins to draw his sword but for some reason stops. Mason puts his hand on Xeptimus' shoulder and nods. He then walks towards Klaus and does the same but says, "Thank you. We are now friends." Mason starts to flap his wings and his body lifts from the ground. He waves to both of them and slowly fades out of existence. Klaus looks over to Xeptimus and notices that his mouth is wide open in amazement. Xeptimus turns to Klaus and asks, "What the hell just happened?!" Klaus answers, "I created the best thing that could happen to us."
