By the ti Black arrived in the Fate Bubble, Fuyuki City was burning, ruins scattered from horizon to horizon.
With a calm gaze, hovering hundreds of ters up in the sky, Black looked at the place where the Einzbern Castle should have been.
Now, beginning with that destroyed hill, a chasm was running out, widening as it disappeared into the distance, taking half the forest along with it.
Black rotated as he looked at the entire city.
Fire. Ash. Explosions. Screams.
Nothing was left intact...
When Black had made a full circle, he finally got the ti to observe the people and... other lifeforms.
ROARS entered his ears.
CRIES and SCREECHES echoed across the red sky as it burned.
The three-headed King Ghidorah had decorated half the world with a thunderstorm. A Charizard, hundreds of ters tall, was raining down fire, scorching everything. An even bigger Onix was wreaking havoc under the earth, creating craters, sending mansion-sized chunks of earth flying in all directions. Bolts of lightning, several feet wide, were snaking out of a dozens-of-ters-large Pikachu, exploding people to smithereens.
These were only a hint of the source of city-wide destruction, though.
Hundreds of other Pokemon, so big, so small, had infested the world, their bodies carrying a distinct chanical hint, lacking the smooth actions of the living.
But the Kaiju and Pokemon weren’t alone in flattening Fuyuki City.
Xenomorphs, hundreds of thousands in number, had plagued the city, too, butchering all people left and right. From above, they looked like extrely fast ants, scurrying along the burning plains and leaving behind trails of blood.
The entire scene of utter annihilation was so... beautiful that Black had turned his head all around to have another look at it.
"So..." He mumbled to himself, his face holding curiosity. "... that’s what true apocalypse feels like..."
Black let his gaze fall back to the ground, then.
Even in such destruction, it wasn’t like there were no sparks of resistance.
Shirou Emiya, Rin, and Sakura were fighting off humongous forms of Bulbasaur, swarms of Beedrill, Garchomp, and other Pokemon.
Rider was appearing everywhere all at once, cutting through the Xenomorphs before they could kill more people.
dea was having a hard ti against the sheer power of a few legendary Pokemon who never seed to run out of Mana.
Black also noticed Touko Aozaki, as the legendary storyline character was humbled by the pure firepower of normally amicable creatures from a distant dinsion.
None in the entire Primordial Tower could lay eyes upon Fuyuki City at this mont and tell that it was indeed a tiline of the infamous Fate Bubble.
And then, the apocalypse ca for Black, too.
Two eyes, like blood moons, opened up in the sky, making him look up.
As if an entire mountain range was shifting, with a world-shaking RUMBLE, two arms descended from the sky as if they had been hugging the planet.
Slowly, the outline of a face began appearing around the moon-like eyes.
It was a jet white face, with long black hair that flowed like black rivers of death, their ends disappearing into space.
Under the face, seemingly reaching the horizon, was a blue frock, covering most of the titan’s body.
Then, turning the entire scene even more strange and eerie, two legs climbed up the horizon, the enormous existence now crawling on all fours as it looked at Black.
It turned its face, its movents also seeming broken like... that of a puppet.
The planet-sized existence lifted its left hand so fast that it defied all senses and brought it down right on top of Black.
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!
The palm-print flattened the entire city, dea sohow saving the lives of Rider, Shirou, Rin, and Sakura.
When the existence lifted its hand, sowhere in the mud, even a hint of Black’s flesh couldn’t be seen.
Slowly, a pulsating redness began gathering from different directions.
In the next mont, the redness converged, outlining a figure, becoming Black, a dull gray Notification telling him about Fiend’s activation.
One attack... and it had brought down his HP to near 0, instantly killing him.
If he hadn’t had the Fiend Standalone Title, then he was bound to lose several percentages of Proficiency, Black knew.
And that... made him smile.
Even now, after seeing the world he claid to be a part of his future empire lay in ruins, Black was utterly Calm, unbothered by all the destruction and plight of dea and others, the future Generals of his Multiversal Army.
"Let’s put you to the test here..." Black said, taking out Eon Soul Dew. "Show ... what a Myth can do..."
The Eon Soul Dew disappeared from his hands.
Simultaneously, a yellow star appeared between the two blood moons, washing the entire burning sky and land with a muddy, yellowish tone.
Then, the star fell.
The falling star stopped in the sky, gaining form.
It was Darkrai, his entire body surrounded by red and yellow fus of corruption, the cyan glow in his eyes instantly gaining the sa colors.
For a mont, the Mythical Pokemon looked at his hands.
Then he looked down, his eyes falling on Black.
"... This..." Darkrai said, his voice ringing with a strange, vile sharpness. "... is not Immortality... Master. This is... slavery."
Black shook his head. "All Immortals are slaves of their ambitions," he replied. "It’s just a matter of perspective."
Darkrai clenched his fingers into fists.
"We..." he said, taking his gaze off Black. "... will see."
Then, as Black had done, Darkrai looked around, noticing the apocalypse, the loss of lives, and the monstrous forms of his brethren, so flattened, so still wreaking havoc.
"What a powerful nightmare..." he comnted, looking up and stared at the two blood moons. "It’s distorting reality itself... But... it lacks foundation."
Darkrai outstretched his arms, and his eyes glowed with a blackish-redness.
A wave of power pulsed out of the Corrupt Summon, reaching the furthest corners of the world.
Then, with a HUM, the entire world shattered...
... the Mythical Pokemon consuming the very concept of nightmarish illusion plaguing the reality!
