Slyfer caught up and placed a hand on Kitas shoulder.
"Kita, im sorry but..i dont think thats actually Minami." Slyfer said

"Seriously?" Minami asked, pointing her eyes where Slyfer's own would be. "And why do you think that?"
"...Because if we never fought the Leviathan, then, we never returned to universe 3. And I know that my sister hasn't entered universe 13 yet." Kita said.
Minami lowered her brows. "..Kita, look, I.."
"No!" Kita yelled, "I don't know what you're going to say, but I'm not going to believe it! Who are you, really!?"
"..I, I really am Minami." Minami said, with tilted brows and sad, green eyes. "..I- I can paint something right now, paint a picture of your sword, or of Slyfer, and use my power on that, if you want."
Kita, however, just looked at her eyes. "..There's no need. Slyfer already damaged one of your paintings, remember?"
"What? One of these? Everything in this museum's already been defeated. It wouldn't even have a effect then." Minami explained, as Kita reached for her sword. "What was the painting even of, anyway?"
"..Y'know, oddly enough. I can't remember." Kita's voice was low, ominous.

"If we never faught the leviathan, then we never went into the black hole, and if we never went in...then we are still on the soulless world.
This...this is just another damn trial." Slyfer said, it wasnt too hard to hear the anger in his tone.

"Another trial?" Minami asked, looking between the two. "You mean the trials you completed against Messorem, right?"
"Trials?" Kita asked, her voice still low. "..We've only done one, then he vanished and we found the core in the castle."
As she said that, the walls started vanishing. Revealing absolutely nothing behind them.
"Why'd you say trials 'Minami'?" Kita asked, her voice was lowly simmering.
"Well, wasn't finding the core and destroying it a trial in and of itself?" Minami asked, her voice growing more frantic, as a great distance from them, the floors began to crack away; vanishing in chunks.

Slyfer watched as everything Fell apart.
"Kita look around you!" Slyfer said

Kita didn't respond, instead she pulled her sword out.
"Kita, please- I'm your sister!" Minami cried out.
"I told you not to LIE TO ME!" Kita exclaimed, bringing her sword up and swinging it down. It wedged itself in Minami's head just as she reached out for her- and all movement stopped.
It wasn't like she went limp, it was as though she simply froze in place. There wasn't any blood either, Kita had effectively swung a blade into a statue.
Everything cracked away into nothing around them, as Kita unpaused herself, recovering from the intial shock and completing her swing. Slicing the fake Minami in half. It fell on both sides, revealing a completely hollow inside.
A Similar line appeared around her, as her two halves fell away, like Kita had cracked out of a shell. She didn't look that different, just a little bit less clean. The way she had been when she entered the soulless world.
The two bifurcated shells, one of a Fake Minami and one of a Fake Kita both remained there, and it was then, when Kita looked down at these, that she looked at the vanishing scenery.
"Shit!"

"Well! on the bright side we can fly!" Slyfer said, he began to float as he looked for some kind of way out.

It was pretty much just a giant nothing.
Just flying over it and continuing on until they found a something seemed a safe bet as any.

Slyfer grabbed Kita's hand, as to hopefully not lose her and get lost in the giant nothing they were in.
"If this is a trial, then we have to find the others and help break them free aswell, if they arent already.
..then we deal with Messorem." Slyfer said, sounding rather confident.

Kita nodded. Her sword still glowing.
She tightened her grip on it, and held onto Slyfer's hand as well, just in case he happened to let go and hypothetically drop her into an abyss or something.
"Let's go then."

And thus the two flew up and away, attempting to get out of the nothing and find the others.

Meanwhile,
Hermes and Calypso were currently walking on a dark blue blood stained pathway filled with graves and tombstones on both sides while the road they were walking on was covered in fog.
There were names on those tombstones, such as: 'Cedric Cromwell', 'Margareth Cromwell', 'Borrub of Eden', 'Valkyrie Bard', 'Tapio Absalon', 'Genesis Absalon', 'Pegasus Kanta', 'Anubis Lisimba', 'Atlas Halley' and many other graves of people that Salazar used to know.
"...Was this illusion conjured up by Salazar's mind? Cause most of them definitely did not end up on this place." Calypso said.
"Who knows, maybe the Ending God looked into our brother's mind and created this just for show. I wonder in what vision he trapped him in." Hermes said.
"...Considering how Salazar was before, I'd really hate to destroy whatever nice future he is living in." Calypso sighed.
Eventually, the two reached the top of a hill and right below the hill, there was a part of Avalar right past the graveyard and a Janus gate that leads to Chaqunus.
"Salazar is probably inside on the fake planet Niji lives on, let's go." Hermes said.
Calypso nodded as the two jumped off the hill and ran right into the Janus Gate, both of them appearing on the other side.
"Salazar!" Calypso called out.
Salazar and the two identical Neonytes turned around as it appears they haven't finished their chat with Niji just yet.
"Ah, there you two are. You made it." Salazar said with a small smile.
"Oh, hi uncle Hermes, aunt Calypso! How was Logosimia and Hanus?" The male Neonyte with pink hair with red cowl and had a blade placed around his waist asked.
"...It was fine, I suppose." Calypso said, staring oddly at the Neonyte.
"Yeah, that's what I expected to hear, really." The female Neonyte with identical features with blue cowl and a electric scythe wrapped around her back sighed.
"...Who are you two?" Hermes asked, with a raised eyebrow.
Salazar and the two Neonytes looked confused by that question.
"...I am your nephew and she is your niece, uncle Hermes. Are you having memory troubles again?" The guy asked, tilting his head.
"That's what happens when you become old, you begin forgetting stuff. Doesn't help that he's been hanging around with Micah too much." The woman said, folding her arms.
"These two are Yama and Yami, my children, you have known them ever since they were born." Salazar said.
"Ah...right, I must of forgotten." Hermes sighed, scratching the back of his head, having a good idea about how this is gonna turn out.
Salazar turned to Niji.
"I'm sure you still remember Hermes and Calypso, my siblings." Salazar said.
"Oh, of course! I remember they helped me find the spectrum crystals, I am so glad to see that you two are still healthy after all these years!" Niji said with his trademark smile.
"...Even as an illusion, he still manages to creep me out." Hermes whispered to Calypso.
The Chagarian girl next to Niji waved at them, not saying anything, Calypso simply waved back before turning to Salazar.
"And what brings you three here on Chaqunus?" Calypso asked.
"Since you and Hermes went to Hanus and Logosimia, I figured I could bring my son and daughter to see Chaqunus for themselves. I thought I told you two about that." Salazar said.
"Hey, dad, after we leave, can we head to Eilamel next so you can show us the golden city Umbrial, I want to hear more about the epic battle with the Orocielo and when you shot that mad king with the arrow into his leg!" Yama cheered, a bit way too excited for his age.
"Meh, personally, I want to go to Black Ice to see those killer giants and meet Nakia, it would be interesting to spar with the only woman who managed to master Rampancy." Yami chuckled.
"Alright, alright, we'll go those places, just be patient, okay?" Salazar asked, smiling at the two.
Seeing her younger brother looking so happy nearly made her own heart melt, proving to Salazar that his children aren't real is gonna be a hard task Calypso won't be happy to go through, to take away his happiness like this...
By looking at the expression on his face, Hermes also looked hesitant.

Slyfer and Kita, who were still flying had made their way out of the nothing and were very high into the air, and infact they were not too far away, they were close by in the sky above near Hermes Calypso and Salazar, atleast for hermes and Calypso they were in their field of view, its not clear if Kita and Slyfer spotted them just yet.

Hermes, who was looking up the sky, was able to see Slyfer and Kita in the air and then looked at Salazar and Niji.
"Hey, we have two more people who are here to celebrate this reunion, don't mind me while I give them the signal." Hermes commented.
He raised his hand and launched a light orb into the sky, it din't hit anyone but it went past Slyfer and Kita to get their attention.

Slyfers head immediately turned to Hermes Calypso and Salazar.
"Well, that was fast" Slyfer said, immediately changing course.
