116 116 Guardians and the what?!

Fenris walks over to a pile of rubble, and uses telekinesis to lift everything up, revealing six people the size of children, all with dark green skin covered in patches of tree bark.

They're all lying dead, huddled around an elderly man that was encased in tree roots.

"Please... help... them." The Three-eyed Raven says with his last breath.

Fenris covers the six children of the forest with aura and jolts them back to life.

They all sit up and look around to notice the huge, six meter tall God standing over them. They just look at him, petrified in fear and awe.

Fenris keeps looking at one of them in particular, the one who saved his life.

"What's your name?" Fenris asks her.

"Leaf." She says with a smooth, beautiful voice. It almost sounds like she's singing.

"Thank you, Leaf, for what you did back there. You saved my life. Is there something I could do for you?''

Leaf looks over to the Three-Eyed Raven's corpse and back to Fenris. ''Could you...?''

''I could, easily, but he wouldn't want that. He's been waiting for his death a long time. With his final breath, all he asked was for me to help you.''

''Help us?'' Leaf says as she contemplates for a few seconds before realizing what the Three-Eyed Raven wanted. ''Can you kill the Night King?'' She asks, looking hopefull.

Fenris raises his hand and it starts glowing bright blue, *Snap!* until he suddenly snaps his fingers.

Immediately, an enormous wave of aura washes over the entire world as the skies everywhere are covered in blue auroras and sick and injured people and animals suddenly heal.

Further north from Fenris' location, a group of white walkers suddenly crumble to pieces along with the Night King.

While east, three dragon eggs were about to hatch in a pyre next to a fourteen year old girl. As the blue wave washes over them, they shine blue and get absorbed in the aura.

In the oceans, the Krakens all disappear. The Mammoths, the Giants, Direwolves, Unicorns and everything else that is even the slightest bit magical in origin suddenly vanishes from the world, even the weirwood trees, leaving only the girls in front of Fenris.

"It is done." Fenris says as the dragonglass shard that was embedded in the Night King's chest suddenly appears in his hand.

He presents it to Leaf who takes it, sheds a single tear and then throws it in the air before throwing one of her bombs at it.

*Fwoosh! BOOM!*

The explosion shatters the dragonglass and with it, every last trace of the White Walkers has been eradicated.

"Thank you." Leaf says as her sisters all hug each other with smiles on their faces.

"The world of men has no place for you anymore. I've taken everything magical in nature to my realm. If you'd like, you can live there too. The magic is abundant and far more potent. You'd even be able to increase your numbers."

Fenris then swipes his blue, glowing claws through the air, creating a portal.

"The choice is yours." He says before he steps through.

Not long after, he's followed by the Singers, as they prefer to be called.

As they step through, their eyes open wide in wonder and some excitement.

They're all standing atop a cliff, right next to a waterfall, overlooking a seemingly never ending forest. The colors are more vibrant and a potent smell of pine hangs in the air.

Fenris snaps his fingers and a large book appears in his hand.

"This tome contains almost all nature-related magic I know of. You have a talent for it, so study it. Use it to remake this forest however you like."

Leaf takes the book and looks over the forest. "The whole forest?" She asks apprehensively.

"Yes, it's all yours. You are now no longer children of the forest. Instead, I dub the six of you The Guardians Of The Forest."

"Thank you." Leaf says.

Fenris nods and the six turn around and walk to the tree line. "Don't forget to study the book!" Fenris shouts after them before they disappear in the foliage.

As the Guardians disappear, Fenris knits his eyebrows as he looks off in the distance. "What the hell was that? I was pathetic."

Fenris disappears in a flash of light as he teleports to Davoth's realm.

---

"Davoth, fight me!" Fenris yells as he approaches Davoth's throne that's floating in space.

"What? No, I'm not fighting you." Davoth says, confused at Fenris' strange request. "What's going on?"

"I got my ass handed to me by some random asshole I should've been able to kill easily."

"Okay, run me through what happened." Davoth says before Fenris starts explaining everything that had happened.

After hearing him out, Davoth stares deeply into his eyes for a minute until he holds his arm out to the side and a whole planet slowly forms.

"Destroy it."

Fenris looks at the planet and is about to use his aura to reach out and destroy it when Davoth puts his hand on his shoulder and shakes his head.

"With a punch."

Fenris nods and bends his knees. He launches towards the planet, practically in an instant as he pulls back his fist and punches the surface.

Fenris comes out the other side of the planet as it shatters to pieces behind him, launching large chunks in all directions.

Fenris slowly descends back down next to Davoth and lands smoothly on his feet.

"So? Did that take any effort?" Davoth asks.

"No, not really." Fenris says casually as large chunks of planet are raining down around them.

"Then considering everything you've told me, I think I've got a diagnosis."

"Alright, lay it on me."

"You've got the yips."

...

"The what?!"

"The yips. An inexplicable loss of skill when put under pressure, usually due to psychological issues."

"Yeah, I know what the yips is, but I don't have it, trust me."

"Ah ha, right. So you didn't feel anything when that guy crushed an entire planet to pieces because you fucked up? Or when he punched you and destroyed an entire city, killing half a million people in the process?

I think, subconsciously, you took an ass-kicking because you felt you deserved an ass-kicking."

"Okay, even IF that's true, when I started to fight back he still overpowerd me."

"Clearly you feel quite guilty. So much so that you felt you deserved as much punishment as he did.

It was either that, or... that red energy was chaos magic and he was altering reality."

Realizing he's right, Fenris just stares at Davoth in disbelief. "Are you shitting me? The yips... dickhead."

"Haha, I got you good, pal. You were almost doubting yourself there. Hehehe."

"Yeah, you're hilarious." Fenris says, unamused. "But how did I not realize what he was doing?"

"You have a significant resistance to reality manipulation," Davoth explains as he sits back on his throne. "so instead of just warping you out of existence, he had to be more subtle about it, so he weakened you as much as he could."

"That makes sense. Thanks man, I appreciate your help."

"Anytime, brother. Now go, from what you've told me, Alice must be worried sick."

"Oh shit! Alice!" Fenris exclaims before he disappears in a flash of bright blue light.

---

Fenris appears back in his own realm, now in a populated area, next to the royal palace ship.

Seconds after his appearance, Alice comes flying in as a swarm of bats and transforms in mid-air, making Fenris catch her as she wraps her arms and legs around him.

They share a deep and tender kiss until she pulls her head back. "What happened? What was that?" She asks.

Fenris sets her down and they start walking into the palace arm in arm as Fenris tells her exactly what happened.

---

A few days later, Alice and Fenris are lying in bed after tirelessly making love for days.

"Ready to try again?" Alice asks.

"I'm always ready. But are you sure? We just did it for five days straight."

"I'm not talking about sex, you deviant." Alice says, playfully slapping his chest. "I mean going to the Pokémon world. Did I say that right?"

"Yeah, it's Pokémon." Fenris responds, a little disappointed. "We can go now if you want. It's your show this time, you chose this world."

Alice immediately jumps out of bed and enters the closet. She walks out an hour later, looking stunning and ready to go, only to find Fenris still naked in bed.

"What are you doing? Get dressed and let's go." Alice says, impatiently.

Fenris sits up as Genesis covers his body in metalic liquid and as he stands up, it retreats, leaving behind a nice, casual outfit.

Seeing him get dressed and ready, literally in seconds, Alice stares at Fenris with a lifeless expression for a few seconds. "Are you shitting me?"

Fenris only chuckles in response before he swipes his claws and creates a portal as he starts humming the famous Pokémon theme song.
