"Ahhh, I hate illusions. At least when I had control over time I could make the same mistake more than once."

Star lifted a hand into the air, electricty arcing all around him. Lightning began to strike outwards in all directions as Star tried to by some time.

"What is it? Where is it?"


"No, don't bother... "

Destin pointed the sword forward again, concentrating energy into the point. He let the energy again erupt as a huge stream of fire, but this time, it began to circle around, burning everything around.


"You!"

Serra's eyes lit up as she became angrier than she ever thought she could.

"How dare you make my mother scream! How dare you! She was the strongest hero in our entire village!"

Serra started to calm down a little bit, but she was still very angry.

"She sacrificed herself so everyone else could live. She sacrificed herself so I could be like her! I won't let any of you let that go to waste!"

Serra screamed as her mind became pure rage. Suddenly, she seemed to go into a trance.

"... where am I?"

Serra looked around, knowing that she wasn't in her physical body any longer.

"Serra...Don't let anger control you. I sacrificed myself so you could live. I wasn't strong because I was angry, I was strong because I fought for something I believed in."

Serra turned around to see her mother. Serra also noticed she looked like her original self.

"Mom..."

"Serra, fight for a reason, don't let them trick you into fighting blindly."

"I will mom, but before you go... can you tell me who my father was? I never met him..."

Serra's mother paused for a second.

"He wont remember you Serra, but you have met him. He sacrificed himself in a way that no one else could. He was a bard, he played his music from the soul, but when we were traveling together, he played his entire soul into a song, to save me and your unborn self. His body died, but his soul remained. He was given a second chance on the planet because of his pureness, his name was Luke. You will meet him soon, but you'll notice that he isn't entirely alive, he always has this look in his eye like he is missing something. Don't worry though Serra, just live through this."

Serra came back to reality and wanted to cry, but she knew she had to destroy this evil copy first.

Bel thought: "Ah, good. But Death is far from done yet.

Bel: Good, but be prepared. Death has more to come.

Star's spell was really flashed... but nothing happened. The end of the staircase was still nowhere in sight... and a new element to the trap had been added as well!

There was no longer a beginning to the staircase. Whatever the direction he took, Star would end up going on forever.

Fake Origin smiled as he saw Star's attempt at breaking an illusion... when there was none.

Fake Origin: "Hmmm... what is it this time? Hapiness? Satisfaction? Hmm... I'm not used to feelings yet. Anyway... I guess that my other half must have sensed the feeling by now. I wonder how long will the corruption take becease that... wait a minute... Is this impatience? Interesting... it's going on faster than I had espected. Anyway, I wonder if this mortal will be able to find the solution to this puzzle... It's easy enough but mortals tend to never find it."

...

During this time...

...

The flames didn't affected any of the zombies.

Suddenly, shadows appeared all around Death!

There were Grim Reapers, powerful and totally evil incarnations of Death!

Death: "So... mortals... you... want... it... this... way? Fine... Grim Reapers... SEIZE THEM!"

From all around Destin, more and more Grim Reapers appeared! They thrown their scythes at Destin and then dived back into the earth to get another one... then, they restart the cycle until either them, or Destin is destroyed.

During this time, in the sky, the clouds disappeared... only to reveal the hideous form of Holy Legion.

Legion: "Hey! More friends! I believe you met with UnDeath, my latest creation. I created her from the remains of Death. She's marvelous, isn't it? She has the exact same powers as Death used to have... exept that she won't rebel this time. Furthermore, now that Death and Grandfalloon out of the picture, I am now the new leader of the incarnations of death!... well, Death isn't truly out of the picture but since her soul is gone... well, I guess you understand what I mean. Anyway! I'm not here to play but rather to show you my newest invention! I studied my father's blueprints about some kind of battle robot and enhanced it drastically! You'll be impressed when you'll see it! But first... I must bring it here."

The ground began to shake as a vortex began to appear underneath UnDeath!

...

During this time...

...

The voice echoed in Serra's head.

???: "What a... touching... speech... ... ... Just kidding! Talking about a cheesy speech! What a waste of time! Why should someone contain his anger? Feelings are the very reason for all of our actions... and you cannot deny this. So what if following your heart will harm the others? All that is important is that YOU do not get hurt... and nothing else. After all, you're powerful, they're not. What can they do against you? Anyway! We're wasting our time, isn't it?"

In the mirror, Serra's reflection could be saw... exept that there was something in the eyes of the reflection that was just... wrong. It was as if the reflection had been twisted, corrupted, or something like that...

Reflection: "What a waste of time! Siryx?"

Siryx: "Serra?"

Reflection: "We should find that evil copy of me as fast as possible. I'm sick of this place!"

Siryx: "I know that we must find it... but we have no clues as what is it's w..."

Reflection: "BUT HOW MUCH MORONIC CAN YOU GET?!? Isn't it entirely, completely obvious?!? We must visit the four most important moments of my life in the correct order! No but..."

Siryx: "Serra? Why are you shouting at me like that? Why are you... so harsh?"

Siryx got closer to Serra and stared in her eyes...

Reflection: "What are you looking at?!?"

Siryx: "Serra... are you feeling alright? Your eyes... they're... so weird..."

Suddenly, Serra felt the urge to push Siryx away from her. She felt so much anger... so much hatred... All patience within her had vanished. It was as if all of her quest was losing it's meaning... as if something was corrupting her, trying to turn her into something else... or someone else.

"Whats going on Seraph, I can't move anymore unless you help me out, I'm not falling into this trap anymore."

Star sat down on the stair case, waiting for an answer from his sword, he wasn't going to continously run in an illusion that he couldn't escape. All this was was a waste of time.

"Hey Star!"

Dark Pheonix seemed to appear not that far up ahead on the strair case.

"What are you doing around? You should be dead!"

Dark Pheonix laughed at the thought of death.

"I can't die, without me there is no balance in the other world. Anyways, I came here to help you, there is a simple way out of this if you would think."

"...?"

Dark Pheonix looked down at Star, like he was stupid.

"Ok, isn't it obvious, you destroy the stair case!"

"Where will that get me!?!"

"I'm just kidding. This endless trap was once in my tower to stop the stupid from getting past it, you already walked through it once, why don't you just do it again?"

Star thought for a second, the way he had gotten past it last time, was run along the wall counting the steps and breaking straight through the wall. It lead him right to the top of the tower last time as another staircase appeared that actually went somewhere.

"Heh... actually I think I cheated on that one."

"Do I have to do everything myself?"

Dark Pheonix disappeared, he was back in the orignal world, and at the stair case where Star would be located now. In a second the walls exploded out of the stair case leading outside. Dark Pheonix carved a new set of stairs to lead to the top of the tower very quickly.


"Damn! I can't kill them like this!"

Destin ran towards UnDeath, passing all the Grim Reapers and avoiding their scythes. When Destin reached UnDeath, he brought his sword down for a swing, trying to cleave UnDeath in half.


*thinking*"What's going on... I can't control my emotions... Someone please help me!"

Legendary: "Serra... don't give up, I'll make sure you won't lose."

Blaze: "Serra! I'll burn you to cinders if you don't get control."

Vortex: "Ignore him, Serra you must live."

Enhance: "Serra, keep control."

Restore: "I won't let you die Serra, just fight!"

Lightless: "Serra, don't fall for this."

Protector: "Don't worry Serra, just fight!"

Blink: "Don't lose Serra!"

Breaker: "Use my power to drive this person out of your mind."

Wish: "Serra, you can't wish this away, so you have to fight!"

Relentless: "I can't let my master be killed, fight and kill them Serra."

Sanctuary: "Serra, we are all counting on you, use our power to bring this world back into line. You must not give up. Be the bearer of all our power!"

All tweleve swords: "Serra, we trust you! Hero trusted you, don't let all of us down. Protect yor world using our power!"

Serra stood up and walked away from Siryx, her Ex body changing back to human in a flash, she no longer wore any weapon besides the scythe from death, the katana her mother gave her, and the pink hat on her head.

"Siryx, wait for me. Don't worry, I must first take the responsibility to be like my mother... and Hero... then I can be like Ex."

Serra moved at a very fast speed, thanks to Blink's power, and revisted the bend in the river where she first met Destin. No matter what it looked like in this world she saw it just as it happened.

"I'm glad such rare flowers are nearby, I can make enough medicine to cure serious illness. Oh hey... who is that?"

Destin floated in the river and eventually hit a bend in it. Serra dragged him out of it and the scene flashed to another event.

"Thank you for helping me."

"It wasn't a problem... Where do you plan to go now?"

"I'm going back to my kingdom, my king died to save me."

"Well, you're still sick, so I'm comming to!"

"Hey what!?!"

Destin was laying in a bed, and looked wounded. Serra sat nearby and started to pack some things. The scene again changed.

"Ohhh... it hurts... someone please help us..."

"I'm sorry Serra, I didn't know they'd betray their king and try to kill everyone that stood to help him... I'm sorry Serra, I didn't want to get you killed."

"Don't worry you two... I'll make sure you don't die."

A blinding flash occured and Hero stood where the two had laid down, obviously dieing. The scene changed again.

"Serra... forgive me... I can't be around to be your father"

Serra didn't hear anything, but a wonderful tune sounded in her ears. It was the song that her father had played his soul out to save her...

Suddenly, the wall next to Star crumbled down and a new set of stairs appeared.

However, a force field appeared, preventing access to the new staircase... but as the force field appeared, the endless staircase stopped being endless.

Just 20 steps ahead was a massive gold door. Behind that door was probably Fake Origin.

...

During this time...

...

Since UnDeath didn't have a soul and thus, didn't have free will, she couldn't act unless ordered and since Legion was busy summoning that huge machine of his, UnDeath did not move.

However, Destin could not strike UnDeath as several Grim Reapers jumped in the trajectory of Destin's sword and took the attack for their master.

...and of course, new Grim Reapers were appearing every second. For each Grim Reaper Destin and Bel would destroy, more than 5 more would appear.

...

During this time...

...

Suddenly, someone yelled...

???: "STOP!!!"

The Memory World suddenly disappeared.

Serra was in a very... strange place. She was in some kind of vortex and while there was no ground, she wasn't falling or anything. It was as if the floor was invisible or something...

Suddenly, in front of Serra appeared... herself?!?

Dark Serra: "So... you came... it is quite weird, talking to myself like this..."

Dark Serra was completely identical to Serra... exept that you could sense that she wasn't quite as nice. For every bit of innocence and honesty that there was in Serra, there a bit of lies and cruelty in Dark Serra.

Dark Serra: "Did you figured it out yet? There is no such thing as an evil copy of you. My master... OUR master, had a much better idea. Why should he waste his time destroying you when he can use on you the same trick he used on Siryx? What he simply did... was to give a physical form to your negative feelings and memories. I am the very incarnation of both your worst nightmares... and most perverse fantasms. I am everything you had wished you could be... and never could becease of your good nature."

Dark Serra laughed... her laugh was typical for a Chaos Heaven inhabitant: cold, cruel, scary... but still, no matter how many people used that laugh, it was still as fear-inducing as ever...

Dark Serra: "Your inner desires... I know them all... Your hidden weaknesses... all of them I know... But most importantly, at full power I am... and at full power you are not! There is no use in fighting yourself... especially when your reflection is stronger than you are. Allow this personality that stands before you to become your true personality... You'll see! It will be fun!... for me, anyway."

Dark Serra unsheated Dark Weapon.

Dark Serra: "What the hell am I talking about? OF COURSE you won't accept this! I should know better... since we are the same person! Anyway, while Dark Weapon may be souless... I sure do know how to wield it... which just one of the many, many advantages I have on you! Now go on! Try and strike me!"

"Heh... well, this should be fun."

Star forgot all about walking up the steps, he jumped all the way up the staircase and threw open the doors, ready for the worst.


"Jesus Bel, at least wait til I move!"

Destin jumped out of the way of the ball of light as fast as he could. He really didn't want to be destroyed right now.


"You're wrong you know. I'm not you, and your not me. I don't want to be like you, and I won't. I have no need of destroying you either, all I have to do... is wish you away."

Serra started to glow as she held all the swords power within herself. She was strong enough to win this if she had to. Her plan should work though, she wished the Dark Serra to see her own mother, to feel her embrace, her sacrifice, and why Serra would never become evil.

Fake Origin was behind the door.

Fake Origin: "Hmm... you made it... but you cheated a bit, didn't you? Anyway... I have no time to waste with you."

The Fake Origin created a time vortex under Star. Unless Star would get out of the way, he would have to start the whole tower over again!

...

During this time...

...

Suddenly, all of the Grim Reapers disappeared. Altought the explosion of holy energy was powerful... it couldn't have been the explosion that chased them all.

Legion: "Done! Now let's assemble it!"

Legion began to glow blue while UnDeath began to glow yellow. Then, suddenly, a third figure began to glow red... it was Doom! Looks like Legion revived him too!

...

During this time...

...

Dark Serra: "You do not understand... I saw them all, I felt them all... But unlike you, I do NOT care. All of that... is a pathetic waste of time! C'mon! We have POWER! Power is better than friends, family, heck! even better than Siryx! Power will never betray you, it won't deny you, it won't break your heart... it is just so great! Why don't you see what we could with it? Why are you so blind?"

Dark Serra was upset.

Dark Serra: "You're so disgusting... Even with all of the power in the Universe, you would still be weak. I have nothing to say to a weakling!"

Dark Serra pointed Dark Weapon at Serra.

Dark Serra: Now a little lesson for you! There is no such thing as Good or Evil! There is only power... and there are two types of people. The strong and the weak. The strong lives to use it's power and crush the weak while the weak live to feed and serve the strong. Good and Evil? None of that non-sense!"

Dark Serra tried to do an evil smile... but it was apparent that she was uneasy.

Dark Serra: "You're definitely weaker than me and as such, you shall obey ME! Now... stop your whining and surrender already!"

Legion: "Oh? Is the little wizard upset? You know... I could use that same argument against you! How much more of a coward can you get? Using magic? Pah! Furthermore, you have a body! Pah! Cheap!"

Legion began to laugh at Bel!

Legion: "Anyway... time to say goodbye to Holy Legion, UnDeath, and Doom and to meet your doom, death, or whatever you call it!"

In a flash of light, Legion, Doom, and UnDeath merged!

When the light was gone, a GIGANTIC robot was in front of Destin and Bel... and when I mean gigantic, I mean "gigantic like a city", nothing less! That was probably the largest machine they had ever saw...

Machine: "So... how do you like this? When the powers of Death, Doom, and Legion unite to form Alexander, nothing can be done to stop it! Yeah! And best of all, I, Legion, get to be the head and spirit!"

Ex's voice echoed.

Ex: "Errr... Destin? Bel? That is Alexander, the legendary mechanical god of destruction born from the fusion of Legion, Death, and Doom. You are both excellent warriors... but this looks more like a job for Serra and Siryx. Shall I teleport you outside right now or do you want to attempt to defeat it? You can always try if you want since death in a Mirror World isn't permanent. However, your chances of victory are slim. Anyway... it's your choice."

"Forget it! I'm not leaving till they die! Errmmm again!"

Destin looked at the mechanical giant, feeling like an ant, he walked towards it forming a plan in his mind.

*thinking* "Ok, all robots have circuits and things that make them work... With this thing being so big, I should be able to get inside of it... I hope..."

Destin dashed towards the giant robot, half expecting a giant foot to come down and try and smash him, which he actually wanted to happen.


Star practically leaped off the tower trying to get away from the vortex. He was on the very edge perfectly balanced.

"What the hell!?! You call me a cheater and you do that? Well, if you want to play that way, I'll have some fun!"

Star ran towards Origin, knowing almost exactly what Origin would do. Origin's spear was fast and his energy attacks deadly, but there was no way this Origin was as strong.

"Star, this Origin has a major weakness, he fights while experiencing emotions, he won't be able to control his energy perfectly."

Star smiled, he knew that he heard Dark Pheonix and that Dark Pheonix wasn't someone to trust, but this was a very interesting turn out. Star increased his speed and attacked, but as it looked like he was attacking from the front, he used his speed to be comming around from behind at the same time.


"This fight is already over... I shouldn't have bothered with any of this. I'm sorry, but I'm not going to beg or fight."

Serra turned her back and slowly started to walk away from Dark Serra. She wouldn't fight with that abomination, her mind knew that she'd win, and that was all she needed to find the essence and the link for Siryx.

However... the fact was that Alexander didn't have legs. In fact, there was nothing under the torso as large thrusters allowed it to fly above the ground.

Alexander: "Interesting... you're actually going to fight? I tought that you would take the rat's offer... anyway! I guess I'm smash you quickly. Doom?"

Suddenly, Alexander's arms appeared. They were completely articulated like tentacles but unstead of a hand at the end of them, there was a dragon head. The left head was looking kind of like Death's while the right one looked like Doom's.

Alexander: "Get'em!"

Doom: "WHAT?!? I'm a hand?!? No fair! Why did you get to be the head?!? I WANNA BE THE HEAD!!!"

Alexander: "OK... So you want to act like a moron? Death!"

Death: "Not at full power..."

Alexander: "*sigh!* Must I really do EVERYTHING myself?"

Alexander's chest opened revealing the largest collection of rocket launchers the two had probably ever seen. There was at least enough missiles ready to launch to destroy all of Europe!

Alexander: "So, little ants! Would you like to taste a bit of my Purificator Launcher? Huh? Do you want a taste of it! I know you do! C'mon!"

...

During this time...

...

Fake Origin: "That didn't worked..."

Fake Origin took out his spear and waited for Star to strike. Then, he spinned around, blocking the attack AND striking Star at the same time!... well, probably. Should the attack hit, it will send Star spinning like a top into the wall!

For now, it looked as if he wasn't having any feelings.

...

During this time...

...

Dark Serra seemed to panic...

Dark Serra: "HUH?!? B...but where are you going?"

Dark Serra made a step foward.

Dark Serra: "Y... y... YOU!!! You aren't getting anywhere!"

Dark Serra dashed foward and slashed Serra! For some reason, the attack was completely unavoidable... but only made a scratch on Serra's cheek.

As Dark Serra struck Serra, the same exact wound appeared on her cheek too!

Dark Serra: "Don't go any further or I'll... I'll strike you again, for real!"

Dark Serra was about to prepare for another strike... but she dropped Dark Weapon and grasped her cheek. She then stared at her hand... there was blood in it. Just as she had feared...

Dark Serra *thinks* Why didn't the boss gave me a separate body?!? Why did he awakened without getting me out of her body?!? I... I can't do anything to her in this state!

For some reason, Serra could hear Dark Serra's toughts...

"Stop talking and just fire already!"

Destin jumped into the air as high as he could, trying to get on top of Alexander. Something that big couldn't be that powerful. It was just impossible.


"Hey, you should really check how you strike."

Star had grabbed onto the spear with his hands and had flipped onto it, standing on it.

"Just like old times. I remember doing this before."

Lightning surged from Star, through his feet and into the spear, from the spear to the fake Origin. The lightning began to arc from Star to thr ground, it was so powerful.

"Hope this is enough to satisfy you."


"Just stop trying, and let this mirrior world dispearse. I don't plan on destroying you. Just end this now."

Serra sighed as she kept walking.

Alexander simply flied backward, avoiding the tiny jumping ant.

Then, it proceeded to blast it with enough missiles to destroy something as big as itself.

In short, either Destin can teleport, either he has some uber-defensive move... for if he doesn't satisfy one of those two options, he's going to be reduced to ashes (face it, Destin may be a tough guy... but enough missiles to nuke a city, not KO him let alone kill him? C'mon!).

...

During this time...

...

Fake Origin was shocked... but kept his cool, altough he could feel a feeling called "frustration" awakening within him... but it quickly disappeared when he realised that if he felt it, then the real Origin must have felt it, thus bringing him and his master closer to their ultimate goal. In fact...

Fake Origin: "Stop, Star. You do NOT want to anger me, don't you?"

Fake Origin smiled. He knew that the more pain he would suffer, the more anger he would feel, the faster would the real Origin's corruption go.

...

During this time...

...

Dark Serra's eyes widened. If Serra left this place, she would... she would... No! She had to stop her!... even if it meant hurting herself in the process!

Dark Serra: "So... you want to play it this way, aren't you? Look at this!"

Dark Serra pointed Dark Weapon at... herself?!? She also seemed much more confident. She was sure it would work... well, it had to else, she was pretty much done for.

Dark Serra: "As you saw earlier... we ARE the same person and as such, each time I get hurt, YOU get hurt as well so... I suggest you stop it before an "accident" happens!"

"!?!?"

Destin saw the flurry of missles and expected to be reduced to ashes, but he did the one thing he could think about doing. He put his shield up. He put a normal shield up against enough missles to completely destroy a big city.

"Oh shit..."

The tiny target was in fact small enough for a few missles to miss, but one hit head on with the shield, creating an explosion in the sky that would have vaporized almost anything. After the barrage of missles Destin stood on the ground though, weakly, very weakly.

"If I could move without falling to pieces, I'd kill you..."

The image of what had happened flashed in Destin's eyes. The sword acted on its own, creating a shield of flame all around him, when the explosion happened, the fire shield absorbed all the fire in the missles, but he concussions from the missles still hurt.

*thinking* "Damn... that thing is fast, strong, and a breeze could kill me right now."

Destin looked at himself, his armor was scorched all over and just looked like a big piece of scorched metal. His body should be broken, but amazingly, nothing was. He was more than hurt. He shouldn't be alive...

"Umm... Ex... before I die... I'll take that retreat now."


"Actually, I do want you to be experiencing emotions. Experience them all you want, I wouldn't mind you going crazy with a temper tantrum, because you see... You are in a lose-lose situation. If you don't become as strong as the real Origin you have no chance against me. The only way to do that is experience emotions, and by experiencing emotions, you become drastically weaker."

Star paused, still standing on the spear, but now going on only one leg.

"You see. you experience emotions to become the real Origin, I kill you in the process. You don't, I kill you. Either way it works fine for me."

Star held his sword and struck out towards the fake Origin with it, but kept his place balanced on the spear.


"You don't understand do you? You need me to survive, but I don't need you. You need a body to live in, I'm that body, you're just a part of my mind, if you die, I lose that part, and I don't even have that part, so it doesn't matter. Go ahead in do it, but I'm leaving now!"

Serra turned for the last time and walked away.

Alexander laughed.

Alexander: "Hahaha! So, mr.Big Shot? Begging from mercy?"

Ex heard Destin's call...

Ex: "OK... here comes."

Suddenly, 2 beams of light were fired from the sky. The first reduced Bel to ashes while the second terminated Destin.

As both characters died, their souls were twisted, crushed, and completely beaten up by spirits as they were expulsed from the Mirror World in a very painful way.

Then, the two awakened, alive and with no harms.

They were back to the way they were before entering the Mirror World... in fact, the only thing they retained from their visit was the memories... and an intense feeling of pain from being beaten up by bad guys on the way out.

Ex: "I know... I know... It must have been painful... but it's always less painful than being crushed by Alexander and it's much less humilating. Anyway, try another Mirror World and attempt to fight Alexander after gaining a bit more power."

...

During this time...

...

Fake Origin didn't said anything.

Unstead, he teleported behind Star as he was about to strike him.

Fake Origin: "You do not understand... My purpose is not to replace Origin."

...

During this time...

...

Dark Serra: "Oh no! You're not getting away!"

Dark Serra slashed her own chest with enough force to stun herself for a while.

A big wound appeared on both Serra's and Dark Serra's chests, stunning them.

Dark Serra: "Y... you... see? You a... aren't... getting an... anywhere... hee... heehee..."

Dark Serra smiled.

Dark Serra: "If I don't gain control of this body... then nobody will control it. We are the same person, Serra. Without you... I am nothing but without me, you are nothing as well. We need each others as we are the same person... Face it! Without your less-pleasant sides, without your occasional outbursts of anger, you're nothing more than a stupid souless "Ex" being look-a-like! It's not only your happy memories that makes you into what you are!... but your negative memories as well! You aren't a pure, perfect incarnation of Good! Do not deny it! You have, just like every other mortal, some Evil in you!... and I am that Evil!"

"Give me a minute to think, I will destroy that thing... I just need to figure out how."

Destin stubbornly sat outside of the mirrior world portal, waiting for the answer to come to him.


"Wow, I could see that coming from a mile away. Just surrend yourself, no matter what you are trying to do, I can kill you before you do it."

Star moved and turned just enough so the spear went below his armpit and missed completely.

"I mean really, you can't even hit me, or do you want me to fight back now? I can end your misery in a flash you know?"

Star had taken on a cocky attitude, but he knew better than to ever underestimate an opponet. He was ready for anything, but he couldn't let one attack slide by him. He had to be on top of everything right now. One slip... and he could end up missing.


"I really don't care what you have to say. If you think evil is the right way for yourself, take it, but I'm not going with you. Remember, you kill yourself, and you don't take my body, that will be at least one victory for the good side."

Serra slowly started moving forward, Healer's effect healing both of their wounds. Serra had really stopped caring what this evil version of her said, it didn't matter to her, she wouldn't fight it, only... forget it.

Fake Origin stared at Star...

Fake Origin: "I guess it is time to start fighting back for real."

Suddenly, in a flash of light, Fake Origin had became truly HUGE and was floating above the ground... exept that there was no ground. There were now in space!

Fake Origin: "Let's start with this."

Fake Origin opened a big vortex over Star's head. Energy beams came down raining on Star! Each beam was probably very powerful... but it would be best for Star not to test their power level himself and just to get out of the way.

...

During this time...

...

Dark Serra: "B... but..."

CRACK!

In a huge flash of light, Dark Serra stopped existing as Serra's evil returned into her heart... but not completely.

The magical entity that NeoBowser had created to contain Serra's evil still existed.

It looked kind of like Serra exept that she was horribly twisted. She was also much taller than the real Serra (I mean, like 5 times taller) and she had 3 pairs of demon wings.

Dark Serra (true form): "You aren't going anywhere unless I say so."

Dark Serra laughed... well, the entity that was once Dark Serra laughed. The real Dark Serra was within Serra's heart, where she had always been and where she would probably always remain...
