An Ally Joins The Fray

Iapetus gets out of the purple smoke and starts to run.

Dionysus follows hot on Iapetus tail.

Dionysus tries to kicks Iapetus on his side but Iapetus dodges

"Star blaster." 

Three stars shoot at Dionysus but he dodges them and tornado kicks Iapetus in the face.

Iapetus goes skidding a little.

"Impact punch." 

Dionysus hits Iapetus with a impact punch and Iapetus flies in the air a bit.

Dionysus lifts up his finger.

"Poison Laser." 

(E/N: Poison Element is one of the Forbidden Elements.)

The blast hits Iapetus.

Iapetus groans in pain but then punches Dionysus.

Dionysus's head falls down as a result of the punch, but then he strikes Iapetus in the jaw.

"You little brat!" Iapetus said as he tried to grab him but misses.

Taking the opportunity, Dionysus spins onto Iapetus's hands and kicks Iapetus in the face with both feet.

Iapetus slides backwards as Dionysus flips in the air and lands gracefully. 

"Poison Jab." 

Dionysus flashes forward and hits Iapetus on the side of his stomach with a jab of poison.

Iapetus grabs Dionysus's arm before he could escape.

He points out his other hand.

"Raging Star Blast." 

Dionysus takes the full blunt force of the attack.

Dionysus gets out of the smoke of the blast and punches Iapetus in the stomach with an impact punch.

Iapetus lets go of Dionysus hand but then kicks Dionysus in the face as he slid back.

Dionysus recovers immediately and headbutts Iapetus.

Dionysus grips his fist.

"Poison Jab: Impact punch." 

Dionysus's punch sparks purple as Iapetus slides back.

Dionysus wastes no time in following it up with a punching spree.

Dionysus punches Iapetus away.

"What's wrong? Having a hard time keeping up with me?" Dionysus said with a smirk.

Iapetus smirks as his ki suddenly increases.

*Where is all of this ki coming from?!" Dionysus said.

Iapetus crouches into a small ball in the air.

Ki waves in the air surrounds Iapetus as he gathers more ki.

The ball of ki surrounding Iapetus confines into a small ball on his chest.

"SUPERNOVA!!" 

A big explosion of star energy collapses onto Dionysus.

Dionysus takes part of the damage until a random silhouette jumps in front of him and holds back the explosion with his left hand.

The person grabs the explosion and makes it disappear into a purple smoke.

"What were you saying about me just now? oh yeah 'let me show you how it's really done' and 'watch me demolish this guy?'" Taiyo said looking back, "Looks like you were the one who got demolished!" 

"Oh shut up! You don't even have your left arm anymore because of him!" Dionysus said.

Taiyo looks at the place where his left arm used to be.

"Dang, looks like save your sorry bum costed me my left arm." 

Dionysus stood up annoyed.

"I should have just left you to die while you were still on the ground." Dionysus said.

Taiyo and Dionysus walks through the smoke.

"Oh?! So you aren't dead yet huh? Looks like I have to do a better job than just a few blasts." Iapetus says.

"This fight ends NOW!" Taiyo says

"I'll be the judge of that!" Iapetus said as he blitz toward Taiyo.

Taiyo steps back and blocks the attack with the stub of his left arm.

Dionysus kicks Iapetus on his head.

Taiyo follows up with an impact punch.

A star bomb appears on a part of Taiyo's arm stub.

Taiyo moves his stub closer to Iapetus.

He slashes off the stub and it goes flying toward Iapetus.

Iapetus tries to pull back but it's already too late for him to escape.

The stub explodes in his face.

Iapetus wipes off the blood on his face and sees Taiyo and Dionysus charging up with a punch.

"Poison Jab: Impact Punch."

"Solar wind Fist: Impact Punch." 

Iapetus is sent flying through the air.

Taiyo runs after Iapetus but stops mid-step.

"Ahhh, stop! We had an agreement!!! Astraios!! Don't do this to me!" Iapetus says before his body starts to look exactly like the galaxy.

A new beast appears before them.

"What is that?" Taiyo said in pure shock.

"I don't know, but whatever it is, it's giving me bad vibes man....we should run...like now." Dionysus told Taiyo as he ran to grab Kinishi.

As they were running, they heard the phrase: 

"Unearthly Destruction." 

The ground shakes and cracks.

Aika joins Taiyo and the others while running.

"What is going on??!" Kinishi said when he wakes up.

"We are all confused too." Taiyo said.

At that moment, Taiyo and Kinishi felt a powerful presence that only they would know immediately. 

*NO!* Taiyo and Kinishi thought at the same time as they both start running towards the center of all of the shaking. 

Aika and the others yell at them to come back but they were already too far.

As they ran closer, Chemosh stood there charging up his ki.

"Dad!" Taiyo said.

Chemosh turns around surprised.

"Dad, don't do this by yourself, let us help you!" Kinishi said.

Chemosh smiles and says "You both still have a life ahead of you, I'm just a rusty old man that has to die now." 

"Dad.... no..... please!" Taiyo said as he starts to get closer.

"I have already done my job in this life, it's time for me to go." Chemosh said as he pushed away Taiyo.

"Dad.. if you die, then.. then... then there is no point in us living either!!" Kinishi said he tries to hold back his tears.

Chemosh opens his mouth to talk but then stops.

"Go live your life to the fullest." 

Taiyo and Kinishi are sent back flying towards Aika and the others.

"DADDD, NOOO." Kinishi yells with tears in his eyes.

A large explosion of blue, white, and yellow appears from where Chemosh was.

Chemosh's presence disappears. 

Taiyo goes on his knees as he revels in despair.

Kinishi grabs Taiyo up and throws him up as they start to run away again.

 The cracks on the ground shines yellow.

The light covers Hanage and Aika.

Taiyo looks up and tries to grab Aika.

"No..not you too!!" Taiyo tries to pull her away from the light but is restricted by a barrier.

Taiyo hacks into the barrier and grabs her wrist.

Taiyo tries to pull her out but the barrier traps his arm.

"Nooo.." Taiyo said lightly.

Taiyo tries to pull her out more and more.

But then the light takes her and Hanage away, along with Taiyo's left forearm.

Taiyo falls on his knees again as the sunrises.

Taiyo covers his face with his stub and his right hand.

"I didn't even get the chance to tell her..." Taiyo whispers before crying his heart out.

Apollo stands there and looks down. 

Kinishi sits on a destroyed part of the building and allows his hair to cover his face.
