Present day, Ramenent city, 3:10 pm

'What is this?', asked Roy to Salma to which he replies, 'it's Zen's ultimate plan, if this thing hits earth then every human on this planet will convert to plant and trees'. Roy was astonished to hear that and asks him how to stop the black sphere. Salma told him that they have to destroy it's center part where all it's energy is stored but if we touch the black sphere it's the end for everyone. Salma adds more saying, 'Zen could only convert people into monsters using their emotions but gradually he came to learn that he could convert them into living organism, and at last all his hatred and love, his all emotions come at us in the form of a black sphere'.

Salma calls William and tells him how to destroy the black sphere and William tells them a plan. William gives them a protecting layer of light and instructs them to destroy the sphere as soon as possible. Salma with his dark energy technique flies towards the sphere along with Roy. While they were reaching the sphere Alexander meets Williams and asks him what this is about, William tells him everything that Salma told him to which Alexander replies, 'you are saying Tsalmaveth Gedling is here helping us?'. 'I don't know much about the details but yes it's true', asserts Williams. Roy looked tensed while reaching the sphere and asks Salma if is this is the only way, to which Salma replies, 'I just know destroying the centre will lead us to victory'. After quite a minute they reach the sphere, with their full power they get inside the sphere. The sphere affects their body little by little but due to protection of light on their body it doesn't affect them much but slowly slowly their light protection shield shrinks due to the high pressure by the sphere also due to far away from William, it's a medium range sheild. They reach the center of sphere, 'prepare yourself, kid!', Salma verbalizes. They use their strongest attacks to destroy the sphere.

*Sword of Darkness : Darkness overflow!*

*Hero's Fall : Affect of the Curse!*

Both the attacks destroy the centre. The sphere slowly breaks and explodes. Salma and Roy manage to get out of the sphere before the sphere explodes. Salma and Roy land on the ground, 'you are a good guy', said Roy to Salma. Salma just smiles and doesn't reply anything. Roy and Salma shake their hands. Salma advices him again to go to a hospital. Salma teleports and Roy walks away and searches for Williams but then he remembers what Salma was doing but it was too late, Salma was gone. 'So it's really the end huh?, says Alexander to Williams. Everyone looked happy after the destruction of the sphere.

The next day, Nova city, 10 pm

'It's an important meeting regarding Tsalmaveth Gedling, he's been seen again, in fact he also helped destroy the sphere', divulge Alexander to everyone in the department of cause and effect.

Roy curiously asks Alexander what's this is about to which Alexander replies, 'Tsalmaveth Gedling is a criminal, one year ago he killed the former captain of the 7th department'. Roy was very shocked to know that. Alexander asks Roy what Salma was doing there to which Roy replies, 'he was opening some gates'. Alexander was horrified to hear that immediately sends everyone to find Salma. Roy couldn't understand what happened asked Williams, he said that Salma was opening the gates of sins, if he opens the gates then every sin will awake.

There are seven sins of a human which must be avoided if not then they are a sinner. The seven sins are Pride, Wrath, Gluttony, Envy, Lust, Sloth and Greed. Every sin has its own punishment in hell, the sins reside in hell and if the gates open and they can enter our world and choose the one who is most capable of the sins they deserve. They control their body and mind, untill the body is is destroyed we cannot finish the spirit of the sins. To fight them there are seven heavenly virtues which are Chastity, Humility, Charity, Diligence, Kindness, Patience and temperance.

Mara arrives at her department after Salma sent her to the desert. She slaps Roy and scolds him for being naive, she calls everyone in her department, 'We have to kill Salma', said Mara to all the soldiers in her department. Mara adds more by saying, 'Roy, he's not a good guy, he killed the former captain of the 7th department and now he tried to open the gates of sins'. 'The key to gates of hell was with us but 4 months ago it got missing and from that time we couldn't get the key, we tried searching everywhere but we couldn't get it, Head captain Sir Alexander checked us too but no one had it. Even if he's my ex husband I cannot forgive him for his sins, remember he has committed a crime, he's our enemy'. 'And I am very sorry I should have told all of you about this earlier who have newly joined'. After her speech everyone headed home. Mara heads home and locks her room and cries, 'why you had to do this why? Salma? Why? You were called the 'The missing Shadow', was this the only option to keep this world safe? Is this really the way?', murmurs Mara to herself. Salma was listening to all of this out of her room. Salma looked sad hearing her.

Present day, Nova city, 3 am

Salma hands over the key to someone and tells him to be careful and warns him of Alexander and Williams. The guy gave a little smile and said, 'if it's their destiny to meet meet me then it will be my honour serve them to their graves', to which Salma replies, 'anything you do I don't care, just remember if anything happens to Mara it will not be a second to kill you and also that kid, you shouldn't hurt him too'.
