We are alive.

Theodore smiles, he begins laughing like a maniac. Nara, still being there, looks at the human intrigued. "Why do you laugh Bloodhearth?" Theodore nods and gets up from the ground, he looks for his sword, he realizes that he lost it. "Shit" He said to himself. He looks around and sees the dragon over the helicarrier.

He runs towards it, he dashes through ballasts of cannons and soldiers. The Goddess of Victory defends him from any attacks pulling the enemies away. He reaches the bottom of the helicarrier. He looks for a way to climb up. The goddess picks him and places him on the helicarrier. Theodore sees the group. Fiora screams searching for Theodore "Theodore! Where are you?"

Theodore smiles looking at her. "Where do you think? Behind you!" Everyone sees the goddess of victory entangled to Theodore, like an umbilical cord to one another. "Theodore, is that…" Said lord Goldheaven. Theodore goes towards the dragon and activates the communication device, he sets two frequencies. "This is Theodore Blodhearh." Everyone hearing his voice feels their spine chill. Both parts stopped fighting and looked at the dragon. Above it people saw The goddess of victory, bowing in front of her.

"I am not dead, yes that's a surprise that many didn't anticipate, that's why you all are here. I wanted peace, really, but your leaders are forcing you to fight in wars or battles for now reason. I have gods looking over me and supporting me. Do you think I will die so easily? To the Libertans I am making a proposition, follow me as your king and help me unite both Liberta and Highland once more!"

Every libertan now bowed listening to what Theodore said, made them feel like they are the villain, that they did this for just cause, some started crying and others looking down at the earth asking themselves 'what have I done'

"The gods aren't mad at you, they are mad at your leaders, help me kill them and let the gods take care of them in the afterlife, will you accept me as your king?" The army gets up and holds their weapons high. "YES OUR LORD!"

Theodore nods at Nara, she gives him the sigil back, and disappears in thin air. "Then let's charge back to Liberta and bring everyone to justice!" Theodore ends the communication by clicking a button on the device. Fiora hugs him. "What happened?" Theodore chuckles and looks at Seraphine.

He pushes Fiora away and heads towards Seraphine. "Seraphine, from this moment you are free of your duties of any lord. You're a Bloodhearth by heart, blood and name." He gives her the sigil.

"Father gave me this when I was born, I am now giving this to you. Hold it tight and keep in your mind that whenever you or you need help you can alway come to me."

Seraphine shakes her hand. "I can't just go, and this sigil means a lot to you." Theodore laughs at her comment. "Then don't go, the sigil served its purpose and needs someone that will need more than me." He turned back to Fiora.

"So what now self proclaimed king." Said lord Goldheaven. "I haven't proclaimed myself king." Theodore said, he points up to the sky with a nasty grin. "If you look in the heavens, They already decided that I am the king of Liberta and Highland. And your soldiers are getting ready to charge the lord houses and the capital when I say it."

The soldiers in Highlands capital sing from the soldiers with joy hearing their leader, brother and friend being alive. Rinehart looks at the aftermath, the battle wasn't as bloody as he expected, he looked disappointed. Guardian E. comes to him.

"What's next?" Rinehart looks at her, "Expect the unexpected."

Ghost wasn't near the army, he actually ran towards his home, his district wasn't affected, he opened the door of his house and looked for his mother, she was watching TV. "Are you crying?" She did indeed cry, she had old Christian books on the table and. She runs towards Ghost and when she reaches him, she hugs him tight.

"I thought you're gonna die, when I heard on the news Theodore died I thought, I only thought." He hugs her back. "Never trust the news again mom, he is alive." She looks at him wondering what he said.

"We did damage control, we figured that the enemies will want to target us after Theodore dies, so Theodore faked his death."

She laughs. "And why are you here?" He still held her tight "Should I be not, I knew you would cry over me. I wanted you to not give a damn about it." His phone started ringing, he looked at it, and didn't recognize the number. He answer. "Hello?"

"Hello? Are you my father's friend, Ghost, was it?" He realized this is Rinehart's daughter. "Yes… You must be Rinehart's daughter right? Felicia?" Her voice turns into an alert and happy voice, she breathes compulsively. "Is my father ok?" Ghost started laughing. "Y–" He laughs at the realization of what Theodore has done.

"Yes, we are all ok, including Theodore. Don't worry about him, he is ok." She breathes relieved. "Thank you mr. Ghost… Call me Lancer!" His mother visibly smiles.

"Thank mr. Lancer. Have a good day!" "You too." He ends the call. and looks at his mother.

"What now?" His mother walks away towards the kitchen. "Come at least to eat, you need to gain energy before heading back."
