V.3-C.71│The End VI│

Ahsoka was running late and she feared her time was limited. Finding the note left behind by Eve, she took the ship and flew into space herself, making sure to avoid the high concentration of asteroids that seemed to orbit the supermassive black hole.

The entire galaxy was at stake, or at least her entire galaxy, universe was at stake, that being Anakin and she wasn't willing to lose it. Lose him.

Coming closer, Ahsoka watched as Eve was pushed by Abeloth, further away and past everything and everyone else. That is right. Eve was unable to stand toe to toe with her mother, as she drew the Mortis Dagger and tried to stab Abeloth.

Instead, Abeloth was able to use this to her advantage and completely take Eve down, forcing her away, grabbing the Mortis Dagger and throwing it towards the supermassive black hole.

Their plans were falling a part, and it would seem that Abeloth believed herself to be truly immortal now that this was gone. In a way she is.

The representation of chaos. The incarnation of disorder. Everything that was destroyed, is affected by entropy and is to be returned to nothing, Abeloth represents.

The Force itself seemed to both dim, getting a bit dagger, as if the nature of what is going to happen is something sad.

Knowing the potential of the suit she is currently wearing, Ahsoka exited the ship herself, now it would just stay just out of reach as the rough automated systems would get itself outside of the supermassive black holes area of gravitational pull.

Ahsoka herself used both the suit, alongside her Force abilities to have herself afloat within space as well.

Looking back, Eve had been knocked out but she would be fine. Abeloth most definitely didn't want to kill her child after all, and would instead face off against Anakin. 'Or is she going to fight him at all...?' Ahsoka thought to herself as she got closer, and as ridiculous as this is, floating in space right next to the supermassive black hole, she didn't care.

No one cared as of this moment, and instead it looked like the battle of gods was going to happen right now. Abeloth had powered up enough to start expanding in size, and become a titan, a gargantuan being.

She rapidly expanded in size, becoming greater and larger, and better than what she was before. Her form considered perfect and complete, Ahsoka didn't know what she could do now except watch these two go against each other.

Then it happened. Anakin transformed himself, his form and resonance within the Force becoming greater as his limits were undone.

There was no wind to push her away, but there was this massive gravitational push away from Anakin and Abeloth created within the Force that made it impossible for Ahsoka to gain any more 'ground.'

Anakin was shifted into something she hadn't seen before, and it seemed to take on the presence of the Force itself. This form was dark, very dark. It was black and seemed to merge with space itself, however, it was also composed of the stars within his form.

His face seemed to be sculpted onto this form as well, and the entirety of his form was something she could sense through the Force, rather than sense through her physical senses. 'Anakin...' She thought to herself, before turning around and deciding to help Eve out for now.

'I need to do something, but it seems like I will be unneeded in this current battle.' Ahsoka thought, turning around and going towards Eve, grabbing ahold of her and then placing her within the ship. 'You should be safe now...' She thought to herself, before turning her eyes towards the raging fight between these two divine like beings.

Their power immense, and Ahsoka feared that she would be harmed, sensing that every strike exchanged between the two seemed to create ripples within the Force. These ripples would not only alert her, but would alert any and all Force-sensitives throughout the galaxy.

Especially those that are of greater sensitivity than others.

Even Ahsoka now could feel the overwhelming presence of the two of them, most definitely allowing others further away to feel things. Even if muted by the supermassive black hole, as it not only sucked in light, but the Force around it.

'I most definitely have to wait for the perfect timing. I mustn't let things go too far, otherwise I will miss my chance.' Ahsoka narrowed her eyes as she thought this, waiting for her chance.

Anakin and Abeloth were exchanging blows, each trying to suck on each others lifeforce and Force energies. Their powers were not exactly matched, Anakin easily being more powerful but she was able to put up a decent fight.

Anakin had taken on his galactic form, not expecting himself to ever have to use such an ability, he was rather excited but cautious at the same time.

Abeloth was an opponent that is hard to deal with, and even with him absorbing from her faster than she is absorbing from him, she will be able to drag this out forever. Even then, she would still not die, not without that dagger or anything being able to grasp onto her spiritual form, now perfectly stored within her actual physical self remade.

'What's wrong? Are you finally falling for me now? It is too late, I shall take you forcibly for myself if I have to.' Abeloth's voice travelled to Anakin as he was thinking of his next moves.

Abeloth struck out with her gargantuan form, trying to hit Anakin but he was able to block every blow she tried to get against him. Of course, it didn't make a different either way, whether or not she hit him and he blocked, or she hit him and he didn't.

In the end, they were both still slowly and painfully draining each others abilities, so something had to be done.

'I don't think I will fall for you so easily...' Anakin replied as the two were now starting to pick up on their gravitational pull towards the supermassive black hole. For now, they were both safe from the thing wishing to devourer everything.

That didn't mean that they were completely safe from this and this wasn't already a part of Abeloth's plan. Whatever it was she was concocting, Anakin knew better to stay away, and to really get this battle to be over and done with, he would need to throw her into the pit that was that black hole.

Even their gigantic cosmic level forms were nothing in comparison to the black hole. It is the center of this galaxy after all, pulling everyone that lives within towards another direction, somewhere everything and everyone was heading the same way.

Just as planets naturally drift away from things as time moves on and energy dissipates into nothingness, it seemed like this black hole is meant to be the epitome of the opposite factor.

The supermassive black hole in general is a combination of both concepts surrounding order and chaos. What binds people and helps them stay together, versus the dispersion of such bonds and the riptide current of the black hole that makes everything into nothing.

Supposedly so, since there is not information even for these advanced civilizations on where black holes lead to or where they may go, or how they store their information absorbed.

A scientific look at what it was considers a black hole anomalous, but also naturally occurring.

A black hole is a region of spacetime where gravity is so strong that nothing, no particles or even electromagnetic radiation such as light can escape from it. The theory of general relativity predicts that a sufficiently compact mass can deform spacetime to form a black hole.

The boundary of no escape is called the event horizon. Although it has a great effect on the fate and circumstances of an object crossing it, it has no locally detectable features according to general relativity. In many ways, a black hole acts like an ideal black body, as it reflects no light.

Moreover, quantum field theory in curved spacetime predicts that event horizons emit Hawking radiation, with the same spectrum as a black body of a temperature inversely proportional to its mass.

This temperature is of the order of billionths of a kelvin for stellar black holes, making it essentially impossible to observe directly.

In doing so however, the two, Abeloth and Anakin were now starting to 'orbit' the black hole themselves, as if they were planets. Using this, Abeloth and Anakin started to use the Force opposite of each other.

Abeloth wanted to draw Anakin into the black hole with herself, while Anakin just wanted her to be thrown in. Around the black hole, Anakin and Abeloth were using the Force energies distorted around the black hole, and were both making some progress against each other.

Watching from a distance, Ahsoka was amazed at the power held by Anakin, but was also worried because of what power Abeloth was able to hold as well. She was losing yes, and their cosmic forms were starting to become smaller as well, soon enough making them meet up again and face each other in their original small forms.

The presence of the galactic center was something at the back of her mind, lingering like the jaws of death that would take Anakin away from her.

A distance away yet, Ahsoka slowly made her way over in preparation for what she is going to do.

'You cannot stop me. I will have you, and you know it, don't you.' While these words were not spoken through her mouth, Abeloth was able to direct such thinks as thoughts, without the aid of a dyad.

Technically, any and all Force-sensitive beings are able to do exactly this. Transmit their thoughts and emotions to another if they so willed and knew of how to do so, through practice and training.

However, Abeloth was not as practiced, did not train and most certainly gained her power through other means.

'No. I don't know. I would rather not know exactly what the future brings, for that just means things are set in stone. I thought that you would be against this concept yourself, being the epitome of chaos and all.' Anakin replied, definitely catching Abeloth in her own inner conflict.

She was not totally gone, but at the same time totally gone. 'You know nothing.' Abeloth stated as she came closer.

'I am no Jon Snow.' Anakin replied, before batting her away as their depowered from their greater forms at the massive scale. They didn't need such forms to finish things between the two, and Ahsoka was seeing it now.

The moment that would define whether or not she would be able to save Anakin from certain doom. 'But also the moment I sacrifice myself instead.' Ahsoka thought morosely.

This was an easy decision for Ahsoka, but that didn't mean it was difficult. The dichotomy of this was glaring, but for her, it doesn't matter right now.

Her inner conflict pushed aside, Ahsoka got ready as Anakin managed to grapple onto Abeloth, and seemed to absorb energies from her at a rapid pace.

In doing so, she was weakened enough, and Anakin used the Force to push her hard and fast into the event horizon of the black hole. In doing so she would be unable to fight back or even make it back through such a massive cause of destruction.

'Now!' Ahsoka thought as Anakin was caught off guard, his own energies having been sucked on by the supermassive back hole's distortion of space-time, alongside the Force.

Ahsoka went forward, managing to just grab onto Anakin and then pull him towards herself, placing herself in the direction of Abeloth. 'I love you...' Was her transmitted thought, but seeing the look on Anakin's face, she had a sudden feeling that things were not going to go to plan.

'I'm sorry, but don't worry. This won't kill me, I hope.' Anakin smiled kindly at her as Abeloth screamed obscenities through the Force, and the next thing she knew, there was nothing.

Ahsoka found herself back by Eve within the ship, where Abeloth and Anakin was gone.

The Force had settled down, but that didn't mean anything to her right now. As if in mourning, a large but soft energy through the Force was released everywhere throughout the galaxy.

Planets unexpectedly rained, and while such events were happening, Ahsoka, along with the others connected to Anakin via the Force Dyad noticed a disruption in their bonds.

Their thoughts mirrored each other in this moment. 'What has happened to Anakin...?'
