Chapter 29 - To Eradicate Absolute, I'll Fight Gods If I Have To

Absolute watched as everything around him become distorted, time seemed to be bending under the immense strain Polaris's full power was putting on it. 

"Black Lightning, Distorted Solar Aura, Body Doubles, Magnetosphere Interference, Aura of Death, Parasitic Dyson Sphere, Body of a Pulsar, Strength of a Quasar and Celestial Legion..... Now this Absolute.... this is what true power looks like." Spoke the multi-voiced Polaris. 

Black Lightning ripped into Absolute's body, the body doubles of Polaris couldn't take a hit, but were punching Absolute with this same level of power. The "Aura of Death" and The "Distorted Solar Eclipse" were used to steal Absolute's body strength and the rejected his bodies ability to regenerate. The "Parasitic Dyson Sphere" allowed Polaris to drain the energy of Absolute into himself, making himself an unstoppable celestial nightmare. As for the "Magnetosphere Interference" kept Absolute from countering any of Polaris's attacks. Even with all of that, Absolute was still standing.... barely. 

Polaris sighed in his multi-toned voice before speaking. "Still standing are you..... Well then..."

Absolute jumped at Polaris only for Polaris to unleash a new, additional buffet of attacks. "Solar Hell Storm, Solar Hell Flare, Hyper-Novatic Energy Burst, Gravity Well of a Black Hole, Red Giant's Death Wave of Extinction....The Carrington Event: one-thousand times amplified." Called out the darkened plethora of Polaris's voice. For a moment, the area was still, nothing was visibly happening, until the area around Absolute took on a gray hue. In a split second, an incomprehensible amount of damage was dealt to Absolute. The once-feared "Frost-Stricken Conqueror", was now at the sole mercy of his son, "The Exemplar of Celestial Force". 

As the intense bombardment of Absolute was being conducted by Polaris, Scarecrow was looking around Initiative City when a voiced rang out nearby. "Hello? Is someone there?"

Scarecrow looked around and couldn't find the source of the noise. As he went behind a building, he found what looked to be a decorative skull. As he lifted it up to his eye, it turns out....

"Scarecrow! What the hell is happening?"

In a lone-toned, metallic voice, Scarecrow responded. "Fog? Is that you?"

"YES! Well, just my head at least.... But what is going on!"

"Polaris lost it when Absolute killed you. Absolute then proceed to threaten turning Bel into a blood splatter."

"This is bad, get me up with everyone. Hurry!" 

Scarecrow clutched onto Fog's skull and rushed towards the fight. Polaris had finally come down and was fighting Absolute with his bare hands. As Scarecrow and Fog arrived, Polaris had damn near killed Absolute. There a was more blood on the ground, guts and entrails strunn about the area than there was left inside Absolute.

"*coughs up blood* Stag-n-nate, I'll make.... a deal...." Coughed Absolute.

With a blackened whirlwind, the god, Stagnate, appeared before Absolute, unaware of Polaris being there, levitating a few inches off the ground behind him. 

"My, my, you look terrible Absolute, but I am here because you wanted to make a deal, right?"

"K-Kill him and y-you can have my soul."

"Delightful, now, who must I kill?"

Absolute raised his hand, but rather than pointing at Polaris, he pointed at Bel. "Kill Belvidere..... then make sure my son.... Polaris dies." The dark god smirked demonically as he turned to Bel. Gardos formed armor out of himself around Bel. "With please, Absolute." Stagnate launched his spear at Bel, but it didn't far. With light speed, Polaris caught the spear and using the last of Absolute's strength, stolen by Polaris's Aura of Death skill, launched the spear through Absolute's heart, ripping it from his chest, and splattering it against the outer walls of the city. 

"WHAT THE HELL HAVE YOU DONE!? Meddling hero.... I WILL HAVE YOUR LOVERS HEAD!" Yelled the God of the Undead. However, before he could move, Polaris was in front of him. His lightning-quick speed couldn't be seen by the dark God.

"I'll make YOU a deal. Kill me, and you can take all four celestial souls I carry within me." Said Polaris in his multi-toned voice.

"Very interesting. What if you win?"

"If I kill you, you will give....Fo...."

"Polaris wait! Fog is still alive! Scarecrow has his head see!"

Scarecrow lifts up Fog's skull. "Polaris, don't do this! Do not play around with Stagnate!"

Polaris returned to hovering level with the god. "If I kill you, I get to eradicate Absolute's soul from existence. No reincarnations for him, no do overs, just death, eternally cut off."

The dark god thought for a moment, then smiled. "Throw on Fog's head to the deal if I win and you have a deal." Polaris maintained a straight face. "If you want Fog's head as a part of the deal..... This will be done in the fashion of a duel. We each get a single short, and the opponent being shot at can't move, no use of magic, can't dodge and try to block."

The dark god grinned and hook Polaris's hand. "It's a deal!" All of Polaris's friends were upset, yelling and shouting, telling him it's suicide as the two assumed the spots in the sky. "As these are your terms, fire first Polaris." Polaris shook his head. "I interrupted your transaction. You fire first."

"Optimistic are we? Well, remember now, don't move." Grinned the Dark God. Stagnate lined up his shot directly on Polaris's heart. "Bullseye." He muttered to himself as the spear flew through the air and struck Polaris. Bel watched as his lover fell, but something odd happened.... Polaris cracked a smile and rose back up to his original position.

"WHAT!? BUT HOW?!"

Polaris coughed up orange and blue blood through his smile."That was a great throw, my turn." Polaris called for all of the energy he'd stolen from Absolute, the energy the other stars in the heavens had given him, and his own energy and focus it on a single point on his chest. "I'll say this about you Stagnate, you may have played god with Fog, but I shall be the one to be victorious and end Absolute. Wanna know why?"

"Why is that hero?" Huffed Stagnate. At that exact moment, every celestial ever appeared behind him, the energy amassed at the single point on Polaris's fiery chest, was equivalent to 8x the big bang. In unison with Polaris releasing that energy, the celestial spoke.

"You stagnate life. We created it." The flash of light blinded everyone, as a pure fusion explosion ripped the god Stagnate from existence. As the light vanished, the sun came back out, the stars were all back in their rightful place, the red hue that had covered the globe has vanished. There was a solar circle burned into the ground where Stagnate once stood. Fog's body had been fixed, as had Powerdrive's arm. As everyone rushed outside, they found Polaris holding Absolute's soul, foot planted on Absolute's face. 

"Good riddens. May we all be safer with you gone." Said Polaris as he crushed Absolute's soul ball removing his father from the cycle of life-death-rebirth, permanently. Polaris marched into Initiative City, fist over his head signifying he'd won. Once he found Bel, he scooped up his lover and returned to the Fort, stronger than any Celestial in history.
