All Together

As the Ghost's mind began to deteriorate, his mother was finally understanding just how much pain he'd endured, and how much pain she was about to feel. 

However, breaking free of Spencer's arms, Kett rushed past everyone onto the battlefield and hugged the Ghost's leg.

UNCLE GHOST DON'T BE LIKE HER!

The Ghost paused a moment, then his eyes returned to normal.

GHOST! I KNOW YOU CAN HERE ME! DON'T END THIS LIKE SHE WOULD! REMEMBER! YOU ARE THE PILLAR OF OTTAWA! THE PILLAR OF OUR EFFORTS HERE! yelled Kazuto standing up.

YOU ARE MY BEST FRIEND! WE DRANK TOGETHER REMEMBER! YOU DON'T NEED TO END THIS LIKE HER! called out the Busch Hunter

The Ghost began to tremble and shake.

It's working! We just need one voice above the rest!

Nolan took to his feet, gather what little strength he had left, and yelled out to his friend.

REMEMBER WHEN WE WERE KIDS AND YOU WANTED TO END THIS BATTLE ON YOUR TERMS? NOW IS YOUR CHANCE! SHOW HER WHO YOU HAVE RISEN ABOVE! I BELIEVE IN YOU! NO MATTER WHAT! I AM YOUR BEST FRIEND!

The rage finally left go of the Ghost's heart and mind.

Thank you... all of you. Now let's end this. Summon all that rage to a single fist, for one last punch...

Kett let of the Ghost's leg and got to a safe distance.

Now, you wanted me to finish you as the monster you created. I am not the monster. I will finish you stand on the principles I was raised on! LOYALTY! HONOR AND HARD WORK!

The light coming from the Ghost vanished as he lunged at her, his fist making contact with her face. NOW ALLOW ME TO SHOW YOU WHAT I HAVE BECOME THANKS TO MY FRIENDS, MY CHOSEN FAMILY! RAGE OF MY BODY HEAR ME! I COMMAND YOU, SILENCE THIS WITCH ONCE AND FOR ALL! BY LEAVING MY BODY FOR GOOD! 

I ENVOKE THE GOD ARVOS! ARGHHHHH!!

As the Ghost put his full strength into the punch, the rage broke out of him, and sent her into the ground, causing a massive whirlwind, tossing everyone around.

I AM THE GHOST OF OTTAWA! AND THIS IS WHAT IT MEANS TO BE A FRIEND TO ALL! THE HELPING HAND AND SHOULDER TO CRY ON! I AM NOT YOUR MONSTER! I AM THEIR FRIEND AND PROTECTOR! NOW KINDLY..... FUCK OFF!

As the whirlwind reached the heavens, Arvos smiled and cheered in approval. As the winds died down and the dust cleared the Ghost hand his hand up in victory, blood dripping down his body. The stormy sky had been replaced by the sun in a cloudless sky. As he turned to face his friends, he shakily pulled the dagger out of his chest. She had in fact struck him. The other heroes and citizens rushed to him as he crumpled to the ground.... Victorious.
