{In the 4th dimension}
Ichika:C'mon Dad, Master Zero, where are you
Zett and Ichika are currently flying through space looking for the latter's father and the Former's Maste-
Zett:HARUKI DUCK! ( pointing at an asteroid )
Ichika:Woah!
Ichika narrowly avoided the incoming asteroid
Ichika: Thanks Zett, I owe you one
Zett:You owe me a lot of things, Haruki.
Ichika:(Chuckles) Yeah, I guess I do.... Wait? I think I see them! (Pointing at two floating bodies in the distance)
{Meanwhile ta Ratatoskr}
Kotori:Wait! wait wait, you mean there's a mutiverse that existed before this one?
Kotori, the harem, and the rest of the crew was at a lost at what Arata, Basara and Issei told them
Arata:Yep, that's part of the story (smiles)
Basara:That mutiverse got destroyed by one of our major villain as a suicide bomb to end the mutiverse. Instead, he created the second Big Bang
Issei:It's actually a miracle that we even remember our past at all
Reine had a question though
Reine:if what you said is true then why are your threats back?
Arata simply replied
Arata: It's because most of them either hid in different dimensions or hid in a different Mutiverse
Kotori: Also how did you remember your past lives anyway? If the mutiverse got blown up and got reborn, shouldn't you be like us?
Basara: Now I don't know if 'like us' is the best term, but the way WE recovered our memories is either mentioning the old mutiverse to us straight up, meet someone we met before in the old world, be in a situation that we've been in before in the old world, or any exposure to the old world, either verbal or physical
Everyone except Arata and Issei look at Basara in understanding
Basara: Obviously there are stretches to that but the these examples are how WE recovered our memories
Kaguya also has a question
Kaguya:You also said there were other Ultras Out there in the mutiverse too right?
Issei:Yes.
Kaguya: Then where they now?
Issei:(small smile) They're alright now, having been reborn with some memories of what happened... but...(drops smile) There were lives that are lost permanently
The three of them looked down and pulled the Orb-Calibur and Orb-ring, The R/B Gyros and the TaigaSpark. The items of their fallen friends
Reine: I'm sorry for the lost of your comrades (bowed down in respect)
Arata: They're not comrades, they are our friends
Issei:And to us, friends means so much more than just comrades...
Then there was a moment of silence... Nobody said a word, until....
A portal open on the bridge, coming out was Ichika carrying Shido and Zero, who were tired and low on energy because of the effects of the 4th dimension draining their energy
Tohka,Yoshino,Origami,Kotori, Kaguya,Yuzuru,Miku, Natsumi:SHIDO!
the girls was shock to see him in his current state so they carried him while ichika carried Zero to the infirmary
Arata: We'll talk later in the infirmary, we gotta get them healed up first also, Reine
Reine:Yes?
Arata:I want you to make a tracker device, I'll explain later why I need it but right I want you to make it for me
Reine: Right, I'll see what I can do
{Later in the infirmary}
Shido slowly opened his eyes to see that he is in an infirmary on Ratatoskr
???: Feeling better, Hikaru?
Shido turns to the person who said that, and see Zero sitting on his bed, he then turns to see his girls, Issei, Basara, Arata and Ichika.
Ichika: Dad, what happened?
Apart from Shido's harem, Ichika is the most worried out of all of them, understandable, because Shido is ichika's Father, and any good son would worry about their parents
Shido: I'll answer that later, How long was me and Zero out for?
Kotori: About an hour (answers)
Zero: I woke up about thirty minutes ago
Shido:oh.... (Looks around then at his guy friends) let me guess, you guys told them everything right?
Arata spoke up
Arata:Yep, they deserve to know too-
Kotori interrupts
Kotori: Shido, why haven't you told us this!?
She was understandably pissed
Shido:I had to kotori, there are way worse threats out there in the universe and I don't want you and Mio to face those threats
The harem looks at Shido, confused
Tohka: Who's Mio?
Shido just looks at Tohka and answered
Shido: She's... An old friend, we've been in touch for while now
Shido said, trying not to reveal too much of course, and the girls seems to buy it
Arata:Now I would like to re-listen to your personal life Shido but right now we're losing Time, Belial could be anywhere and reeking havoc
Zero then spoke up
Zero:Do we have any clue on where he might've gone?
Basara answered
Basara:No, no clue....
Suddenly, someone coming through the door, they all look to see who it is
???:My My, so many new faces here
Everyone now gone into a offensive position when they realize who it is
Kurumi:Oh my, no need to be violent
She came into the room, looking just as sadistic as ever, everyone took her entrance seriously meanwhile Arata has a comeback
Arata:What the hell are you doing here you Barbie doll reject?
The girls and kurumi looked at Basara in surprised, they had never seen anyone like this before. Arata then continued
Arata:You know? A wise man once said; don't stick your dick in crazy, unless crazy sticks itself in you
Kurumi just grins
Kurumi: My, funny man you are
Issei: spend enough time with him and it'll eventually rubbed off
Now there were at a stailmate, one one's lowering down their weapons down an inch
Ichika:How about we just calm down and be civil about this, we have a war monger on the loose so how about worrying about that first
Everyone seems to agree and cancel all their weapons
Shido:Why are you here kurumi?
He asked
Kurumi:I saw you got sucked into the wormhole and I was worried so I came to see what's going on and seeing Shido-san on this bed worries me greatly
She makes it sound innocent which no one buys.... Except one, Ichika walks up to her, grabbing her hands and looking her right in the eye
Ichika:Thank you for caring so much for my Dad
The girls was surprised at what Ichika just did, kurumi even blushes a little because she has never seen anyone act like this before, he lets go of her hand, then her blush devolved into a grin
Kurumi:So tell me, who did he choose future boy?
Ichika simply answered
Ichika: That's a story for another time
Right then...
Issei:AAAAAAGGGGHHHH!!!!!!!!! (Fell to his knees)
Everyone was shock and confused, what was happening to Issei?
Issei: IT'S THE EVIL PIECES!! THEY'RE CALLING OUT TO ME! RIAS AND EVERYONE IS IN DANGER!!!
The boys now knew where Belial was going next, by now shido was feeling much better so they open a portal, ready to go in, then Reine came into the room
Reine: what's going on?
Arata: we know where Belial is headed next! Did you finish the tracking device?
Reine: yes, but what do you need for?
Arata replied
Arata: when we find him I'm gonna put it on him so when he eventually escapes we know where to find him and where he's going
Reine nodded and threw him the tracking device which is smaller than his thumb and a device that's tracking the tracker
Arata:Thanks
Shido and Zero jumped off their beds as the boys pull out their Risers, eye, lance, devizer, spark as the jump through the portal but before the portal closes....
Tohka,Yoshino,Origami,Kotori, Kaguya,Yuzuru,Miku, Natsumi:WAIT SHIDO!, shido/-kun!,-san!,-san..
They all tripped over each other and accidentally fell into the portal. Then the portal closes
Reine: You're not going to jump in?
Kurumi just looks at her and giggles
Kurumi:Shido-san and the others are going on a adventure while leaving this world unguarded is a problem, so I decide to stay back and keep an eye on this world in case anything suspicious rear it's head
Reine nodded at her in understanding
Reine:Good, I guess this is farewell for now
Kurumi: Indeed, we'll meet again.... Takamiya Mio....
She finishes before disappearing. Reine just sigh
Reine:I guess so.... Now I remember.... A world ago..... Our fates intertwined..... Hikaru-kun....
