Age 1990Maudite stared at the stone wall in front of her... Her hand brushed up against it as Father Darvin continued to stare at her.
"So there you have it..." The old man said slowly. "I have told you everything..." He stated.
"My life... It was all sat up by you for this..." Maudite said slowly. "Why..."
"I told you... Our Attribute... It"s powerful. Far stronger than almost every Attribute that has existed. And not only did you inherit that, but you also received your mother"s powers... The power the lies within you is far above anything that a normal person could ask for... You just have to learn how to harness it... And your power. It is dependent on emotion. I needed you to be ready for this day..."
"So you did all of this so I could defeat the big, bad monster..." Maudite asked sniffling slightly.
"No..."
"What?"
"The truth is... I don"t care... I might have at one point, but now I am simply empty... If you fight and somehow beat Yusei then good job. If you fail and get slaughtered by him, then good job. I could care, less how this final battle will end. I honestly don"t even remember my reasoning for doing all of this. Perhaps I really did hate you? What I do know is those d.a.m.n Enforcers got in my way... Those d.a.m.n men who are bombing the Nest. I didn"t plan on throwing you at Yusei until you were an adult, and had more power. But now... Well, it really doesn"t matter now..." He said shaking his head. "The point is! You can fight. You can win, you can die. This is all in your hands now! Go! And face your-"
"No..."
"-destiny... What?"
"No..." Maudite said again still staring at the wall. "I don"t want to give into you... I don"t want to give in to my emotions..." She stated.
"I think you should start training to become an Enforcer."
"I have no idea how to control my power. I also still don"t fully understand it... But... What I do know is that I can use it for good." Maudite announced. "So I"ll enter the cave. But it won"t be to fight my father... I"m going in to save them... To save Hero... Because he saved me... And he wants to be saved."
Father Darvin stared at his grandaughter for a few moments as he stood up. "Those Enforcers really have messed with you... Influenced you... Tell me Maudite. Do you plan to go with them?"
"I do..."
"Do you hate this village..."
"I do..." She said again. "All I"ve ever known was hate from it. Thinking back on it I honestly can"t remember a single fond memory... I also don"t know if there is any good in that village."
Father Darvin let out what sounded like a chuckle as he looked up at the roof. "I guess its time then... In the end, you really were right... Father..."
"What?"
Father Darvin walked forward reaching into his robes and pulling out a small blue ball. "Once you enter you will have to find another way out..."
"I know..."
"You won"t be able to exit as long as that thing is alive..."

"I know..."
"You can"t let it get out..."
"I know..."
"It"s very likely... That you"ll die."
"...I know..."
Father Darvin stared at his granddaughter, the girl he had hated his entire life, the one person he had done everything in his power to break... And then he turned to the cave wall and slowly pulled it up. The wall formed several edges as it folded open becoming a doorway.
"I"ll close it after you enter." The old man said slowly.
Maudite gave a blank nod as she stepped forward. She stopped though when she felt a hand on her shoulder. "Father?"
"Go on my child..." Father Darvin said slowly. "Go save them. Go save that boy." He stated. "And don"t look back."
Age 1978
"Yusei..." Maudite said quietly staring at her lover.
The monster let out a low growl as he turned to look over at her.
"Please don"t do this-"
Blood splattered onto the snow as Maudite was shoved to the ground! The Enforcer gasped out as he stared at the hand that was now through his chest! Maudite stared up in shock at the Enforcer who had pushed her out of the way saving her life but ending his own...
"T- This was all I could do-" The Enforcer spat out, as he coughed up blood. He glanced down at Maudite as he gave her a sympathetic look. "Please... Lady Alazir..." He gasped out. "Please. Don"t let this be your final resting spot. I might have failed, but it is my families duty to protect you-"
"Sir Smythe!" Maudite yelled out, right as Yuesi reached up with his other hand and instantly tore the poor b.a.s.t.a.r.d in half.
The monster, for there was no way he could be considered a man, looked up to the black sky, and let out a beastly howl. His orange eyes shined with a chaotic fury as it banged on its chest. Two beams of blue light slammed into the beast as he was thrown back.
"Yusei..." Darvin said quietly as he stared at his former son... "I"ll do my duty, as a human with a soul, and put you out of your misery, by ending your life here..."
"I don"t think it will be that easy..." The Father said slowly. "This power... It"s even greater than that Earl..." He said wincing. "We are likely going to die..."
"..."
Darvin charged forward as the blue aura condensed around his hand. He threw out a powerful punch that the monster reached up blocking easily. It turned roundhouse kicking Darvin away and instantly reached up blocking another strike from the Father as it let out another roar.
Darvin slid back, as his Father charged in. The Father held his hands up as several blue beams of light fired out. Then shocking both men, the monster held his hands out firing out its own attack as a blue aura covered its body...
"It can use its Attrubuite still!" Darvin said in shock.
Then in a flash, Yusei fired forward stabbing his hand straight through the old man"s stomach. The old man gasped out as the beast threw the old man off of his hand...
"Father!" Darvin yelled in horror.
"That"s enough!" Maudite cried out as a thick black aura exploded out of her! A beam of black light fired out as Maudite slammed her hands toghter and a second aura, that was white, and looked like flames appeared around her. She raised her hands up, as the black beam raised up to the sky becoming a ma.s.sive black blade. "I"m sorry Yuesi..." She stepped forward slamming her hands down. The energy blade dropped down slamming straight into Yuesi and kicking up a ninety-meter long black beam into the air. All the snow in a five-mile radius was instantly melted as the ground began to melt, and a ma.s.sive tornado was generated... The ground broke away as a ma.s.sive crater was formed and the mountainside shook as several avalanches were set off! The ground almost split open forever leaving a scar in the world as the Corrupted Yusei sunk through the ground, and the entire mountain fell over burying him straight into the ground. The entire battlefield was in utter ruins...
Darvin stood up slowly as the rubble fell over him. "W-What the h.e.l.l was that..." He said in utter shock as he looked around the scorched earth. "H-How can anyone be this strong..."
"Don"t... Don"t just stand there..." Maudite said dropping to her knees. Her body had become pale, and she was breathing heavily. Her hair was a mess, and she was covered in a thick layer of sweat... Blood flowed out of her ears, nose, eyes, fingernails, and toes... Her fingers had become blue, and her ankles were snapped. It was clear that attack had taken absolutely everything she had in her... Maudite was on the last seconds of her life... "The... The formula is similar to the Monsterfication, able of replicating, and copying new cells, but far superior to the Monsterfication... You need to seal the area before he can regrow himself..." She said gasping out. She laid her head down on the snow as she as breathed in and out making a pained wheezing noise.
Darvin stood there in shock for a few more seconds before shaking his head as he walked over to the ma.s.sive crater. He stared down into the pits for a few seconds in shock. He slowly brought his hands together as a white aura surrounded him. It flickered, nearly going out but he gritted his teeth as it remained on. "Not much Mantra left..." He said quietly. "Dero..." He said slowly as it suddenly vanished. His body began to glow as he veins shined white lighting up his body. He crouched down as he placed his hands on the ground. A white aura slowly came out as it covered the hole. Then he slowly brought his hands together. "Two-p.r.o.nged Barrier..." He announced slamming two fingers into the ground. A beam fired up before quickly vanishing. "d.a.m.n... It"s weak but maybe it can hold?" He dropped to his knees breathing heavily as he shook his head. "I... I"m at my limit..." He crawled over slowly to Muaidte flipping her over.
"Sarotobi..." Maudite asked. She looked utterly dead... At death"s door. Her eyes were glazed over as she shook her head.
"Try not to talk. You need to conserve your energy..."
"We both know that won"t be happening..."
"I said-"
"My daughter... Will... Will... Will you protect my child?" She questioned.
Darvin stared down at her for a few moments before glancing over at the now formed cave. "That power you used... Could someone of your bloodline learn to control it?"
"...Yes..."
"Then I will do what I must." Darvin waited for the girl to say something but she didn"t. He looked down at her letting out a heavy sigh. He slowly reached up and closed her eyes before slowly sitting her down. He stood up bringing his hands together. He gave a quiet prayer to her before turning around and walking off.
"Son..."
Darvin stopped as his eyes widened. He looked around the battlefield as he heard it again...
"Son..."
Darvin dropped to the ground as he searched through the snow. "Father!" He yelled out in a panic. He reached out grabbing a hand in the snow and pulling the man out. "Dad..."
"Son..." The Father gasped out laying back on the ground. He glanced out as he breathed out heavily. "It is up to you now..."
"What?"
"I"m leaving the village in your hands now-"
"No! Shut up! It isn"t my job to lead it! The village is yours and you are-" Darvin stopped as he realized his father wasn"t saying anything. He stared down at the old man. His eyes were closed and a slight smile was on his face. "You... You didn"t even give me a choice..."
Five Minutes Later...
Darvin numbly walked forward as he stared out at the land with a blank look. He slipped falling forward as his hands shot out catching himself.
He was about to move forward once more but stopped when he noticed something. He reached out pulling out a small tiny orange crystal...
And the new father Darvin broke down, letting his laughter fill the landscape...
