James and John are caught in the center of the explosion. They get slammed against the wall and take insane damage. They're both unconscious and have very little left in them.

Paula takes heavy damage but is partially shielded by the rock wall and keeps praying.
Somehow, her prayer reaches Zarla again. Zarla, still not knowing who these kids are, prays for them and their quest.

... John and James awaken.

John: ... I can't move... I'm sorry... Karen...
James, using the last bit of his energy, whispers, "Guard Aura."

A wall of energy blocks off John, James, Paula, and Ness from the rest of the room. It will fade after being attacked once, but cannot be penetrated otherwise. The group is safe for one more round. But one more round is all they need...

This is it. If Paula prays 1 more time, this battle ends in victory for our team...

Pheonix takes out the orb out of his DualBlade and holds it between him and the explosion. He speaks a single phrase, and the orb shatters. "You may have tried to doom us to destruction, but you cannot win against a world aligned with order!"
A huge orb of pure, ordered light expands in front of Pheonix. It rises, hovers over to Chuziw, and lowers so it just hovers above him. It disappears. A blinding light is seen from inside Chuziw's body. It is a brilliant light, outshining even the sun recently exposed as the shrine shattered by the force of the plasma. It transforms into a ball of pure light energy, and starts to expand extremely fast, outracing even the plasma attack. It expands to nearly the other side of the temple, then contracts rapidly into a tiny, yet blinding, orb of pure order. Chuziw will be dealt intense damage.

Pheonix is hit by one of the chain-reaction explosions happening across the room. He is KO'd (but not killed).

Epologue begins

Chuziw's body is ravaged apart, only for it to reform again in a new location. "I grant you one thing..." he grunts weakly. "Perhaps I've underestimated you..." He stops for a second, closes his eyes, and suddenly he looks better than new "The world of Chaos can wait, you are just nuisances now! Now that I've stopped focusing on bringing my world and your world together, I can destroy you more easily!" Chuziw laughs maniacally.

"Lets see what you got!"

[Russ]

OOC: I'm back, and it seems I have missed quite a lot of stuff. Actually, it seems like quite a lot of godmodding to me. Chuwiz controlling all the elements, James getting avatar powers, come on people, isn't that godmodding? Good, because I love it!

Ness wakes up and looks around. He sees Pheonix, John, and James all lying at the feet of Chuwiz. "Wow, what did I miss?" He then looks down and sees that a wall of light is gathering around Paula, and realizes what is happening. "Chuwiz, if you want to play rough, let's play rough!" He then picks up his bat and makes a mad, suicidal charge at Chuwiz, hoping it will give enough time to Paula.

Paula's prayer reaches out to three, unexpected people. These three people, all from a world known as Earth, pray feverently for the groups victory over Chuwiz.

Suddenly, as Ness charges forward in his desperate final distraction, a blinding light begins to envelope the arena. Ness smiles as he charges at Chuwiz. "Chuwiz, prepare to see how a god can be killed." He then lifts the bat and brings it down with all his might.

[Alestance]

Chuziw catches the bat and grabs Ness by the neck, laughing all the while. "Is this it?" With his other hand, he uses a light attack point blank on Ness, knocking him back.
"Come on now, is this the end of it? You guys were sooooooo tough, and now you're pathetic!"

"JUDGEMENT!" A voice came from the other side of the shrine. Chuziw is now enveloped in orange light. He looks to be stunned. Elddan is awakened, aura ablaze, lightstone bright. "So, hows it going then? Should I call you Chuziw? Viil? Elddan perhaps?" Elddan says, angrily. "No matter, I'll be stopping your plans."

Elddan raises both hands out and light and dark energies occupy both hands. "So this is all it takes, huh?" Elddan charges at the stunned Chuziw, and just before he reaches him, clasps both hands, and energies, together and backs back. A portal opens and begins sucking in things within the vicinity. Within the portal, the dark, twisted Chaos Realm is briefly showcased. Chuziw is sucked into the portal.

"Whew..." Elddan sighs.

[Russ]

Ness watches from the other side of the arena. Through his clouding vision, he sees a a figure arise from the ground and finish off Chuwiz. Ness smiles, then manages to croak out, "Elddan...help us...please," before slipping into unconsciousness again.

[Alestance]

Elddan raises his arms and water appears, it floats around a bit then flows toward all those around him, and it absorbs into them. "Well, that oughta do it. Healing water."

[Russ]

As the three kids get up, Ness looks around a little bit. "So Elddan, what about the Chaoses? And what did you do with Chuwiz?"

[Alestance]

"Chuziw... He's back at home. It was the only thing I can do. While I was out I had a long discussion with my father. Chuziw can't be harmed in his current state." He sighs. "And, it won't be long until he makes another attack, possibly a few months." He thinks. "The chaoses are part of me now, and thats not the only thing I've found out." He turns his head. "Chuziw and I are the same being."

He then sits down on the ground. "Long ago, Chuziw was known as Elddan among the Gods. He was the one and only Crean half god, that is, the son of Creo, the god of creation and benevolence, the god who's synonymous with the Christian God, but not necessarily the same. Elddan was also the third half god, he created the Viili on Yardh, the first Universe." He stops. "Basically he was the first of a lot of things. Some time later his curiosity led him to the Chaos Realm, which are failed universes. The world is poisoness to everyone, but only mortals would die to the atmosphere. Half Gods, however, are slowly eaten and ripped of their soul, mind ravaged. Because of these chaoses, I can survive without losing my mind or soul, and I'll be entering the world soon."

He gets up again. "You adventure ends now, but mine only begun. My destiny is with the Chaos Realm, and you'll never see me again, thats for sure."

[Surreal Canine]

John and James get back up, both surprised by Elddan's so-called "finishing blow".
James: Whoa.
John:... How on earth did you do that? That was amazing! ... But, you're leaving?...
Suddenly, John remembers what Karen said to him before he left on his quest.
(Karen: Remember, John... No matter how far apart we are, we'll always be together... Right?)

John looks at Elddan.
John: Trust me, we'll see each other again. Maybe not until it's all over, but I will find you again. Count on it. Come on, James. Let's go home.

As James leaves the sanctuary, John turns around to look at Ness's group and Pheonix.
John: And I expect I'll see the four of you very soon, too.
He leaves.

[Alestance]

Elddan sighs and mutters to himself, "If only you were right." He looks at Ness and Phoenix. "Care for a shortcut?"

He raises his arms and an opening in the ceiling is created, and a spiral staircase rises from the ground Elddan stands on, and it reaches to the ceiling, where the ne exit is.

[Russ]

Ness begins, "Elddan, it seems you have a long journey ahead of you. If you and Chuwiz really are one and the same, I have some advice for you. Stay away from him. Stay away from the Chaos Realm. We just saw how easily corrupted you are. I would hate to think you became one with the demon. And Elddan, despite what you say, I have a feeling we will all see you again, and soon."

"Well, what are we waiting for now," asks Lucas. "Let's climb those stairs and get out of here. I can't wait to see the look on John's face when he gets out of this place and sees that we beat him to it."

And so, the three young kids ascend the stairs and disappear from site.

[Alestance]

"Its unfortunate that I cannot" He adds. "I released him, I got to go, now. My ride is here."

Two blazes of light, one yellow, one purple, fly down towards them. Elddan flies up to them, and the lights disapear, along with Elddan.

[Feenicks]

Pheonix sighs, and starts to ascend the staircase. "At least we have delayed his attack. But what about the next time? Who will stop him then? Ah well."
He reaches the top of the stairs. He takes out a brilliant white orb, and casts Return to Order. The staircase descends into the ground, and the various marks left by attacks are erased. Pheonix takes the orb out.
"And THAT's why I always carry 2."
