Our story begins with a quick question: Imagine a world where everything is the same. Everything is as it should be, but you don't exist. The thought terrifies me.
We begin in a forest. Loud grunts can be heard as trees are cut down one by one. A figure emerges from the smoke, clutching a white sword.
"Who am I?" the figure asks himself. He remembers a faint light as he walked through it, and now he's here. As the memories begin to fade, he remembers his name: Jacob.
But before he could think more, he's almost killed by falling trees in a line.
"Jesus!" Jacob yells out. "What the hell was that!"
A black-haired figure appears from the broken trees.
"Who the hell are you, and what are you doing here?" the black-haired figure demands.
Jacob stutters for an answer. "I'm here on occasion. I don't know what I'm doing here or who I am. I just know my name."
"Oh wow, how pleasant," the black-haired figure says. "Here, get up." He helps Jacob to his feet. "Hey, my name's Oscar. Try not to make it the last one you will hear, ok?"
"Uh, well, my name is Jacob," Jacob says. "It's nice to meet you, Oscar."
"So what is this place?" Jacob asks. "It's a forest."
"Yes, it's a forest. What does it look like to you?" Oscar replies.
"Never mind then," Jacob says. "So, umm, could you put those three swords down? I don't even know how you carry three swords."
"Mouth and both hands," Oscar says.
Jacob thinks back to himself: (Oh great, an aggressive oaf and a crazy guy. What luck.)
"So what's the goal here, huh?" Jacob asks.
"To be the greatest swordsman in the world," Oscar says.
"Well, I wouldn't mind heading out of here now," Jacob says. "So I'll see ya."
8 seconds pass
"Wait!" Jacob says. "How do I leave?"
"Well, I suppose you could take that random raft over there," Oscar says.
"Oh yeah? Umm, thanks? I guess I'll take it," Jacob says.
Jacob walks away toward the raft. Oscar watches him go.
"Quite a weird fellow," Oscar says to himself.
As Jacob approached the raft, three people appeared from a nearby bush.
"Hey, my name's Burger and mine's Roy!" one says. "And we are the Rafta Pals!"
"What universe did I stumble into?" Jacob thinks to himself.
"Listen, I have no time for your games," Jacob says. "So let me just ride the raft. I don't have much currency, but I got one piece of gold I can offer you."
"Oh wow, what an honor," one of the Rafta Pals says. "How about we rob you instead? You surely have more than that. Hey, Roy, take the white sword he has. I'll take the gold."
"I'm going to give you one more chance not to try and do this," Jacob says.
"Oh, you'll be fine," one of the Rafta Pals says.
Roy charges Jacob with a dagger. Jacob blocks the attempt with a glowing white shield.
"Where did that come from?" one of the Rafta Pals says. "That was random. No matter, another thing to steal."
"I hate to get serious," Jacob says, "but if I must, I will."
Jacob dashes behind Burger with a flashing eye glowing. He holds a bright white sword and swings it toward Burger's neck. Burger ducks after the swing.
"Oh, what speed!" Burger says. "What the hell!"
"We should run, Burger!" Roy says.
Jacob runs at Burger, charging him with the white shield. Upon impact, it explodes. Burger is hit and goes flying into the nearby bank side. Roy runs away at top speeds.
"Ugh, man, you're annoying," Jacob says. "I'll still leave ya one gold for the raft."
Jacob begins to head towards the raft.
Suddenly, "WAIT!" can be heard across the river bank.
"Oscar, what are you doing here?" Jacob asks.
"What was that? I saw that you and the white sword and those thieves. Are you here to hurt someone?!" Oscar says.
"No, I don't even know what I'm doing here, ok?" Jacob says.
"Oh, that's such a great lie," Oscar says. "With that power, I've never seen something like it. You're a swordsman, huh? Well
Well then, how about we challenge each other to death? Jacob: How's it? I'm tired after fighting those two. I'd rather not.
Oscar: I'm not asking this time.
Oscar spun his swords in a spinning manner, forming a tornado the size of a mountain.
Oscar: I didn't ask.
He launched the tornado at Jacob. Jacob dodged the tornado, but it uprooted trees and destroyed rocks in its path.
Jacob: (Damn it, this is going to be tough.)
Jacob summoned his shield and raised it in front of him. A massive explosion erupted from the tornado's impact on the shield, but Jacob held firm.
Oscar: You're pretty decent. But I still need to find a match for me.
Oscar charged at Jacob with his swords drawn. Jacob met his charge with his shield and sword. The two clashed in a flurry of steel and sparks.
Jacob: We'll see about that.
Jacob ducked under Oscar's sword and countered with a slash of his own. Oscar staggered back, surprised.
Oscar: What the hell? How are you so strong?
Jacob: I'm not telling.
Jacob pressed his attack, driving Oscar back. Oscar parried and riposted, but Jacob was too fast for him.
Oscar: I'm not going to lose to you!
Oscar unleashed a flurry of blows, but Jacob blocked and dodged them. Then, with a swift counterattack, Jacob knocked Oscar's swords out of his hands.
Jacob: It's over, Oscar.
Jacob: Don't worry, I'll stop. There's a yellow door over there. Let's go through it. It seems important. You're coming with me to figure out what's going on.
Oscar: Fine, but only if it makes me more substantial than you. I don't even know why you're here. If any of your so-called megalomaniacs appear, I'll refuse to let them leave alive. I'll protect this world.
Jacob: That's the spirit!
Jacob and Oscar entered the portal and found themselves in a strange, desolate landscape. The ground was cracked and scorched, and the sky was swirling black clouds.
"Where the hell are we?" Oscar asked.
"I don't know," Jacob replied. "But it doesn't look good."
Suddenly, a figure appeared in front of them. It was a man with wild hair and a crazed look in his eyes. He was holding a lit explosive in his hand.
"HEY!" the man shouted. "MY NAME IS PARADOXICAL MBUTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT. I HAVE GIFTS FOR UYU!"
He tossed the explosive at Jacob and Oscar, but they ducked just in time. The explosive exploded in a shower of confetti.
"What was that?" Oscar asked.
[p--0-]
"I don't know," Jacob said. "But I don't like it."
Paradoxical laughter. "I DON'T LIKE INTRUDERS. YOU MAKE ME SCAWED."
"How's about YOU DIE IN SPLOSION?" he shouted.
He started throwing bombs in every direction. Jacob and Oscar dodged the explosions, but it was getting dangerous.
"We need to get out of here!" Jacob shouted.
A white shield appeared around them, protecting them from the explosions.
"I'M not ginnn liee mi tired I leave u alone now yay," Paradoxical said. He disappeared in a cloud of smoke.
"What a strange fellow," Oscar said.
"Yes, he is," Jacob agreed. "But we don't have time to dwell on it. We need to find out what's going on here."
They started walking through the desolate landscape.
Later
Jacob and Oscar arrived in a town that looked like it had been through a war. Buildings were in ruins, and the streets were littered with debris.
"This place is a mess," Oscar said.
"Yes, it is," Jacob agreed. "But it's also the first sign of civilization we've seen. Let's see if we can find anyone who can tell us what's going on."
They walked through the town, calling out for help. But there was no answer.
"Maybe this place is deserted," Oscar said.
"Maybe," Jacob said. "But it's worth looking around."
They continued walking, and soon, they came to a park. In the center of the park was a statue of a man. The figure was missing its head.
"I think we know what's going on here," Jacob said. "Someone has attacked this place*
"And we need to stop them," Oscar said.
Suddenly, a voice rang out from behind them.
"BACK FOR METER?"
Jacob and Oscar turned around and saw Paradoxical standing there.
"Listen," Jacob said. "We're going to be clear here. Do you want to join us in an adventure and discover why we came here?"
"do I get to boom boom things?" Paradoxically asked.
"Yes," Jacob said.
"The trio walked through the yellow door, their footsteps echoing in the empty void. No one knew where they were going, but they assumed it was the right path.
"Bruh, why are we walking?" Paradox asked. "Can we do more splody?"
"Give it more time," Jacob replied. "We're almost to the next universe i think."
"This is taking too long," Oscar grumbled. "You promised I'd get to fight. What am I fighting if there's nothing but an empty void?"
"Yeah, we just arrived," Jacob said. "But something's here."
He gestured to the bushes, where a rustling sound was coming from. Paradox threw a bomb, and the bushes exploded, revealing a figure dressed in a black coat.
Woah who let him have bombs i mean common you guys just cant come into any world and start exploding stuff.
Welp i spose i should introduce myself huh? the names imrage kinda of like image and mirage like im rage? does it make sense? Anyways hows it going jacob?
"Wait, I never told you my name..." Jacob said.
"Sure you did," Imrage replied. "Earlier, when we talked about how your team is as empty as the context to how i know youre name."
Anyways," imrage said casually. "Since you're here, why don't we work on sorting this out? We have a big problem spanning multiple universes that we need to handle.
"Who wait is that what all this travel is about?" Jacob asked.
"Actually yes listen i had to do something the situation its dire" Imrage said. "He's a timeline ender, and we need to stop him. He wants to revive the all verse in his image and make it his perfect universe."
"Now hold on, Jacob asked how exactly what exactly firstfquestiontion is. What is the all verse? I feel like you're just kinda shooting stuff out without really explaining."
"Imrage responded dont worry about it for now id recomend we got going as fast as we can so we can catch the perosn we need so we cna stop the threta known as dr howard right now i only have time for this will you come long with me?"
"Of course, we should stop him," Oscar said. "How the hell am I going to get powerful if someone takes all the universes, including mine?"
"And what about you, Paradox? im already set in" Jacob asked.
"If something can burn, it will. If it can explode, it will," Paradox replied.
"So what's the plan?" Oscar asked.
"We need to recruit more people to help us," Imrage said. "And I know just where to go."
He opened a portal to a new universe, and the trio stepped through. *
Stranger: Who dares to walk through this forest?
Imrage: We are looking for someone named Alexander.
Stranger: Who's asking, and why would you need him?
Imrage: We need him to fight off an Allversal threat.
Stranger: You've got my attention. I want to know more about this.
Imrage: He wants to erase timelines to achieve his perfect success. He wants to make an ideal world, running all creation and stifling creativity.
Stranger: What is going to make me want to join you?
Imrage: Well, you don't want to die, right, Alexander?
Alexander: I dont know how you got my name but im sure I've met more powerful people than you. Tell you what, if you fight me and win, I'll let you off and join.
Jacob: Fine then. Oscar, Paradox, and Imrage back me up here.
Oscar: I got you, don't worry.
Alexander draws his sword.
Alexander: "So, you've accepted my challenge? It's about time I get someone to fight. Though, after waiting so long, I might be a bit rusty. I guess we'll have to see."
Multiple flaming swords form around Alexander as he spins them around him, creating a fire ring.
Alexander: "It's been a while."
He begins to charge them, cutting down all the trees and turning them into a charred, burning wood pile.
Imrage begins to move, trapping Alexander in black spikes.
Imrage: "Listen, man, we don't want this. You see, all we want is for you to relax and help us out!"
Alexander rushes through the bones effortlessly, his eyes locked on Jacob.
They clash swords, each spark igniting a massive fire and flame behind them.
Imrage prepares to charge up a black orb and rushes towards Alexander.
Alexander is hit by a laser beam, breaking off his armor.
Alexander: "Damn, you're stronger than I thought. Well, I don't prefer to fight, then with well, my second form may overwhelm you."
Jacob: "He's weak. What do we do?"
Alexander falls to the ground and falls asleep.
Jacob: "Oh, wow. Quite anticlimactic.
Imrage: it's a shame his mind was not awake."
Jacob: "Imrage, please stop with the puns already."
Alexander is suddenly covered in lightning, hitting him over and over again.
Alexander: "You'll have to try harder than that!"
Jacob: "Well, crap. EVERYONE, IMPROVISE FAST! SPECIAL MOVE!"
Paradox throws 500 bombs, all aimed at Alexander. Jacob charges up his sword with pure power. Oscar prepares his tornado slashes, cyclone. Imrage aims 50 smaller black orb Blasters at Alexander.
Jacob: "Are you all ready?"
Oscar, Paradox, and Imrage: "Ready."
Jacob: "NOW!"
Each attack hits Alexander simultaneously, and everything goes off at once. Explosions surround Alexander's spot and can be seen from miles away. The attack is the size of a mountain, which can also be seen from miles away.
But Alexander refuses to let go. Somehow, he gets back up.
Alexander: "MY FINAL MOVE IS NOW IN MOTION!"
A sizable flaming sword is formed, standing brighter than the sun, blinding all who look upon it.
Alexander: you're reckoning is finally here, it's time to fall to my blade!
But it fell to the ground in the snow, and Alexander fell to his knees.
Alexander: Guh! Fine. Okay. You win. You only won due to your teamwork. Understand that I'll join. Damn.
Imrage: Don't get your mind all worked up, eh?
Alexander: Is he always like this?
Jacob: Yeah.
Imrage: Back to that threat: the all-verse head of it all.
Oscar: What is this All-verse?
Imrage: Well, it's a place consisting of everything that exists: every universe, every timeline, every creation. And he wants to destroy them to create a perfect one. This itself is bigger than us. We must stop this because it will stop all beliefs in creation and free will. A perfect world under one's control is no ideal world.
Jacob: So, who else do we recruit?
Imrage: We'll figure it out, but first, one of you needs to enter a type of machine that will possibly kill you, ending your life and ridding you forever, or give you powers unlike no other. Of course, we'll need to boost our power to beat Howard.
Alexander: Great! But, one thing: I want to keep fighting Jacob. I want to get more power than him. Will that machine help?
Imrage: Yeah, but you may also die and grow weaker. It will pick powers from any universe based on a wheel, and whose powers it determines... Well, you get the idea.
Imrage: I know some places we can recruit from. We can go to multiple dimensions or "games or shows." Each has a different door. I want each of you to pick what universe you will go to and who you recruit. But keep in mind that the all-verse takes away some form of power from any who enter, so they won't come back out as strong as you think they may be. To enter, you must sacrifice your power. This is likely because of a myth everyone knows as the "WRITER," who rules over everything we say, think, and do.
So, guys, pick a door, and let's get started.
Jacob enters through a door. Once he travels through, he sees three doors labeled Animations, And worlds.
Jacob: "Man, what kind of place did I stumble into?"
He enters the Worlds door.
Jacob: "Ahh, what kind of place did I wander into?"
He is met with two doors, one that glows a ornage bright light and one that eminated a black hughe over it. He walks into the PT door.
He arrives in a snowy forest.
Jacob: "What kinda place is this? It looks like there's a path. I'll follow it, I guess."
As he walks down the path, he sees a figure.
Jacob: "Hello? Hey im kind of eh lost here"
The figure stands still. In a female voice, she says:
Unkown: "Wow, how rude can you be? Shake someone's hand!"
Jacob: "Yeah, I can orry maybe i should have been more nicer."
Unkown: "Just shake my hand. Don't be rude."
Jacob shakes the figure's hand and is shocked by a joy buzzer.
Unkown: "Hilarious old joybuzzer. It never fails me. My name's Chandra, by the way. Chandra deult!"
Jacob: "Hey, can you fight by chance?"
Chandra: "Can I fight? Of course, I can fight. Wanna try me on?"
Jacob: "Sure, I'm up for it."
Jacob: "Alright then, I guess we can finally fight. But remember, you asked for this."
Chandra: Bring it on!
Chandra charged at Jacob at high speeds, summoning thousands of knives that shot toward him as fast as planes. Jacob deflected the knives with his shield but was still cut in a few places.
Chandra: Welcome to a special hell!
A large red line appeared below them, and a wall formed around it. The wall exploded, nearly destroying everything around Jacob. But he protected himself with his shield.
Chandra: Oh, what's wrong? Are you going to go on the defensive? Well, I want to see you try me on!
Jacob appeared behind Chandra and kicked her in the back, sending her flying into a nearby rock.
Jacob: No, I didn't say I would let up or show you mercy.
Jacob jumps, slamming on the ground, sending a shockwave and knocking over Chandra. Chandra teleported in front of Jacob and smashed him into the ground, then kicked him while he was sent flying.
Jacob recovered quickly and landed on his feet. He charged at Chandra, his sword drawn. Chandra met him head-on, her knife raised. The two of them clashed, their blades ringing out in the air.
Jacob and Chandra fought fiercely, neither one giving ground. They moved so fast that it was a blur to the untrained eye. Their weapons flashed in the light, and the earth shook with the force of their blows.
Jacob was a skilled swordsman, but Chandra was even more experienced. She was also faster and more robust. Jacob was starting to feel the strain of the battle.
Just when it seemed like Chandra was about to win, Jacob made a desperate move. He fainted to the left, then spun around and slashed at Chandra's back. Chandra was caught off guard, and Jacob's sword cut through her sweater, drawing blood.
Chandra roared in pain and anger. She turned and lashed out at Jacob, but he was too quick for her. He dodged her attack and countered with a swift blow to the head.
Chandra staggered backward, stunned. Jacob took advantage of her weakness and pressed his attack. He drove her back, step by step, until she was cornered against a wall.
Chandra raised her knife to defend herself, But it failed. Jacob had stopped his attack and began to speak
*Jacob: Fine. You're in. You'll help us, so I'd rather not kill you.
Chandra: Oh, come on. You knew I'd win if had just gone a little further, right?
Jacob: Whatever you say.
But I need your help with an all vesal threat. I know you don't know what it is but I have a friend that will better explain it.
Chandra: So you need my help to kill an all-versal threat?
Jacob: Yes. He wants to end the whole of creaticity and create one perfect All verse under his control.
Chandra: Interesting. But let's walk to Tundra town first. It's cold here, and there are better vibes because theres actually people
Jacob: Sure.
Chandra: I'll help you, but first, I need a favor. My brother wants to catch a powerful person to become a recognized. Pretend to be his prisoner, and I'll set you free.
Jacob: Okay, but won't that get him in trouble you know me escpaing?
Chandra: No, I'll handle it. Just talk to my brother up ahead. He shouldn't be hard to find.
Jacob: Alright.
Jacob walks towards a figure.
Chandra: Hey, Azura! How's the hunt going?
Azura: No one yet. I've been waiting my whole life to become recognized but still nothing comes by.
Chandra: I feel that a someone will fall today.
Azura: Yeah, whenever that happens. Let's meet up ahead.
Chandra: Sure.
Azra walks away.
Chandra: Jacob, you can come out now.
Jacob walks out of a quickly made pile of snow.
Chandra: Just act like we've never met before when you see my brother.
Jacob: Got it.
Jacob walks towards Azra.
Chandra: LOOK, Azra, SOMEONE!
Asriel: WHAT? HUH? MAYBE YOU'RE NOT CRAZY AFTER ALL, Chandra. YOU ! STOP RIGHT THERE!
Azra: Who are you?
Jacob: My name is Jacob.
Azra: I'm azra, and you're my prisoner now. But I'll let you go if you can get through my tricky tests.
Azra leads Jacob through a series of tests.
Azra: Wow, you're smart. Almost as clever as Chandra.
Jacob: Thanks.
Azra: Now for my greatest puzzle, the Rocks of 3000! It will trap you in a net if you don't touch the correct rocks.
Jacob walks through the Rocks 3000 with ease.
Azra: WHAT? HOW?
Chandra: My dad promised to fix it but is probably busy.
Azra: Fine. There's one more puzzle up ahead. It still needs to be done!
Azra and Jacob arrive at the bridge to Tundra town.
Azra: Chandra, do you think Dad added the flamethrowers and rocket launchers like I asked?
Chandra: I don't think he trusts you with rocket launchers.
Azra: We'll see. Jacob, walk over that bridge now.
Jacob walks over the bridge with ease.
Azra: I guess you're right, Chandra.
Chandra: Don't worry about it. I'll catch him.
Azra: Okay. I'll see you in tundra town!
Chandra: Wait, real quickly. After I leave him with the guards, tell them you caught him.
Azra: Right, of course I did i technically spot him second!
Chandra: I'll head off now. I heard there was a legendary berry somewhere around the forest. I want to look for it.
Azra: Are you sure, Chandra?
Chandra: Yes, I am. I'll see you around.
Chandra walks away.
The planned events happen
Chandra: So, take me to this all-verse you told me about.
Jacob: Sure, Chandra. Let's head out. But uh how hmmmm?
Imrage: oop seems like they are ready now lets get them up here.
A portal appeared
Jacob: is that it it seems similar i suppose chandra follow me here
The two jumped in it, where the two allies remained in place, recruiting no one.
"Oh wow, you surely did a lot, didn't you guys?" Oscar looked down. "Paradox: Imrage wouldn't let Sploofy."
Jacob: "Oh well, then how interesting. Anyway (I wonder why…), we shouldn't pester around here too much. Y'know, we should head out and do something."
Imrage: "Well, we can recruit more people."
Jacob: "I have just the perfect idea.
Imrage: "Well, remember, only two of us can go, so I'll go with ya. The rest of the allies can stay here and be lazy you know booked for a nap"
Jacob: "Oh please, please, stop with the puns."
Imrage: "Don't get your mind so sore, eh?"
Jacob: "Guhh, whatever."
Jacob: "What're we gonna do with Chandra?"
Imrage: "Actually, take her instead. I'll stay here to watch over the rest. We aren't quite aware of what they will do if left alone."
Jacob: "Alright, I'll leave then, common Chandra."
Chandra: "Yeah, I'll head right over there."
Imrage: "Wait, Jacob. We decided to put you through the machine. Are you okay with that?"
Jacob: "Why? isn't there a possibility I can die from it? whatttt"
Imrage: "Well, everyone else is too scared. I'm sorry, pal. So, unfortunately, we need someone to match Dr. Howard's power. And well, unfortunately, that will be you or may not be."
Jacob: "Alright, then, fine, I guess. But if it kills me, well, I can't do much. Just recruit another person."
Imrage teleports the team to the machine.
Imrage: "Okay, well, now just enter."
Jacob:"before though can we at least question the origins of this thing"
Imrage: from what i know its sort of a manifestation of something unified"
Jacob: uh huh real helpful
Jacob enters the machine.
Jacob: "Well, guys, it was good knowing you, even for the short time I did…"
Alexander activates the machine.
(I hope it weakens or kills Jacob, then I can finally win against him in a fight.)*He said this out loud instead of thinking it*
Imrage: "Uhh, Alexander, if it kills him, you'll never beat him…"
Alexander: "Oh yeah, huh? WAIT, Jacob! PLEASE DON'T DIE! WE NEED TO FIGHT!"
Jacob is encapsulated in the machine. It begins to move and shake as all different colors burst out, each a different color than the last. Then he exits.
Chandra: "Jacob, are you okay? Your soul seems different again.
Jacob: "I don't know, but suddenly I can feel power. I don't understand it completely, but you know how it is."
Imrage: "Now, Jacob, you have new powers. All you need to do now is practice and learn how to use them. Can you do that?"
Jacob: "Yeah, of course I can." .
Imrage: "Alright, head out now. Alexander, can I trust you here on your own?"
Alexander: "Of course I can, Imrage. I'm not 10."
Jacob began to practice with his powers. As he tried to activate them, different colors popped out: patience, perseverance, integrity, kindness, bravery, and justice.
"Uhh, hey, who the hell are you? You're not where are we?"
Perseverance: "Should we care?"
Kindness: "Yes, we should!"
Bravery: "How about we just escape from him?"
Justice: "Oh, common, guys. First, we need to know why we are here in the first place."
Integrity: "You know, maybe Justice is right. We don't know why we're here. Maybe there's a good reason?"
Jacob: "Uh, okay, this is weird. Am I crazy, or do I hear voices? Because, to be honest, this is kinda wack."
All souls in unison: "We are the souls. We have a special trait but don't know what we're doing here either."
Jacob: "Well, I'm going to be honest. I obtained you guys by some machine, so now I have a ton of crazy voices in my head."
All souls in unison: "What! Are you kidding me?!
Integrity: "Oh no, wiat where were we? ?"
Bravery: "I knew this guy was bad. Let's fight him now!"
Perseverance: "Guys, let's be smart about this. Maybe there's a reason we are here."
Justice: "Oh, great. What luck? I mean, who exactly wants to be helping out a stranger?"
Kindness: "I don't know. Maybe we should hear him out."
Patience: "I don't know, guys. We should figure this out collectively, right?"
Jacob: "So, what are you guys capable of exactly? Like, helping me out physically or what?"
All souls in unison: "We help you and your power grow!"
Perseverance: "I can create a portal that can be used to summon things or to transport you and your allies to other locations."
Justice: "I can help your blade shoot projectiles that can be charged up to deal more damage and split into smaller projectiles, creating a devastating spread attack."
Bravery: "I can split into multiple blades and move in different directions, making it ideal for attacking multiple enemies simultaneously! Because I can take them all on!"
Patience: "I can help your blade release a stream of cyan energy that can solidify into various shapes, such as a whip, a net, or a wall. The energy can also be used to create constructs, such as a sword or a shield. I'm just different.."
Integrity: "I can make you invisible and teleport short distances, making it ideal for stealth attacks. But it doesn't last that long. I prefer not to help stab people in the back depending on their actions."
Kindness: "i can make a powerful green shield, and create that can heal you and your allies. Together, we are the souls of perseverance, patience, kindness, integrity, justice, and bravery. And if you need our help, we will. But what exactly?"
Jacob: "Well, there's this all versal threat trying to end all creation, and it's our job to stop him."
Perseverance: "Oh great. But can we be calculated about this?"
Bravery: "Let's get him right now!"
Kindness: "Oh, well, I'd be willing to help."
Integrity: "He has no morals. Let's push against him!"
Justice: "Well, we will serve him the justice he deserves."
Jacob: "I'm glad to know you are all on board. Now, let's head back to the allies. I'm sure when I enter my next fight, we can now beat Dr. Howard. I hope."
All souls in unison: yes, we want to meet the team
perseverance: do you think they're smart?
Bravery: Maybe I can fight them!
Kindness: Oh, I'm so happy we get to meet your friends.
Patience: Do you think they have patience?
Justice: They better fight for the right side.
Integrity: I hope they are good people.
*Jacob arrives*
Jacob: Oh, hey, everyone. Long time no see, huh?
Imrage: Well, no, not really. Did you figure out your powers?
Jacob: No, not really. Does anyone want to spar?
*Alexander jumps up in joy*
Alexander: I do! I want to see the pain on your face. You may have won last time, but that's because you teamed up. But now, it's my turn to shine my light upon you.
Jacob: Alright then, we will. But remember, I've gained new power.
Alexander: I don't care. I know I'll defeat you this time.
Imrage: Try to have an open mind, you guys.
*They both look at Imrage and walk out*
Jacob: It's obvious you've wanted to kill me since we last fought.
Alexander: Not just that. I want to take your power, too.
Jacob: Well, then, if I were you, I'd try to take it. So, come. Jacob: I've been looking forward to fighting you too. But as you may know, I will only go easy on you. I don't see you as an authentic piece that needs to experience my full power. I hope you understand this.
Alexander: I'll kill you for your insolence.
Jacob: You're going to have a bad time.
Jacob and Alexander clash swords, their blades ringing out in the air. Jacob is fighting bravely, but Alexander is simply too powerful.
Alexander knocks Jacob's sword out of his hand and disarms him. Jacob is now defenseless.
Alexander raises his sword to deliver the final blow. Jacob closes his eyes and accepts his fate.
But then, something strange happens. A bright light surrounds Jacob, transforming him into a new, more powerful being.
Jacob's eyes open, and they are glowing white. He smiles at Alexander.
Jacob: It's not over yet, Alexander.
Alexander is surprised and confused. He doesn't understand what has happened to Jacob.
Jacob charges at Alexander and delivers a decisive blow to his chest. Alexander is sent flying backward.

The battle is about to begin again.
Jacob grabs Alexander by the throat and lifts him into the air. Alexander struggles and thrashes, but Jacob's grip is too firm.
Jacob: You're going to pay for what you did, Alexander.
Alexander: You can't kill me! I'm too powerful!
Jacob: We'll see about that.
Jacob flicks his sword, and it explodes, sending Alexander flying across the room. Alexander slams into the wall and falls to the ground, unconscious.
Jacob walks over to Alexander and stands over him. He raises his sword.
Jacob: It's over, Alexander.
But then, Alexander's eyes snap open. He laughs and gets to his feet.
Alexander: You thought that would defeat me? I'm Alexander! I'm the most powerful being in the world!

Alexander: You're right. It is over. But I'll never forgive you for this.
Jacob grabs Alexander by the throat and lifts him into the air. Alexander struggles and thrashes, but Jacob's grip is too firm.
I know I didn't want to do this, but you've forced me, forced me to move my hand this way; I can't lose anymore; it's a promise I made to him; I COULDN'T EVEN WIN THE FIRST TIME; but, now, it's not time to mope, huh well, it's time for you to suffer Jacob.
After a while, I didn't want to do this though it may seem repetitive; I kind of liked you; it sucks that you have to die now, but hey, guess what, friend, whose fault is it? Oh, I know, it's yours.
*suddenly, it seems as if Alexander is getting more severe than before* Alexander: no mercy, your loss
I didn't want to do this, but you've forced me. It forced me to move my hand this way. I can't. I can't lose anymore. It's a promise I made to him. I couldn't even win the first time. But now, it's not time to mope. Huh? Well, it's time for you to suffer, Jacob.
After some time, I wanted to do something other than this, though it may seem repetitive. I kind of like you, live. It sucks that you have to die now, you know? Guess what, friend? Whose fault is it? Oh, I know, it's yours.
Suddenly, it seemed as if Alexander was getting more severe than before.
Alexander: No mercy. Your loss.
Jacob charges Alexander with his integrity blade, smashing him into the ground. Alexander is stunned but quickly recovers and charges back at Jacob.
Jacob calls upon bravery. A yellow slash appears from Jacob's sword, flinging Alexander into the air. Jacob teleports into the air and kicks him into the ground with perseverance. Alexander hits the ground hard, but he still needs to finish.
He gets to his feet and charges at Jacob again. Jacob calls upon perseverance. The purple slash appears again and hits Alexander, sending a rain of different knives from different universes.
Jacob jumps in the air and shoots Alexander with pellets made of pure power and justice. The bullets hit Alexander and exploded, causing him to scream in pain.
Jacob: Keep testing my patience to ensure I don't kill you.
Alexander: Oh, well, here's the thing, Jacob. I didn't ask.
Jacob grabs Alexander, throwing him up in the air and pulling himself towards him, kicking him downwards. Jacob lands on Alexander and begins stabbing receptively. Alexander cries out in pain and tries to fight back, but Jacob is too strong.
Alexander: He he he he. So, what's the context? Uh, you winning? I never found it likely. I'm here to kill you. That's what I promised, so guess what? That's precisely what I'm going to do.
Jacob uses his sword to throw Alexander into the air. Upon Alexander's landing, Jacob teleports behind him and stabs him with integrity. Alexander screams in agony and falls to the ground.
Jacob stands up and looks down at Alexander. His body is covered in wounds, and he is barely breathing.
Jacob: It's over, Alexander.
Alexander looks up at Jacob with hatred in his eyes.
Alexander: No. It's not over only when you're dead.
Alexander tries to get to his feet, but Jacob stops him.
Jacob: You're not going anywhere, Alexander.
Jacob raises his sword and brings it down on Alexander's chest. Alexander screams in agony and pain.
Alexander gets back up. His power is so enormous that space and time float beside him. Rocks begin to break from the earth as you can mentally feel the power resonating off of him. Lightning strikes behind him as he stares blankly at Jacob.
Alexander summons lightning all around him as it strikes Jacob even more and with more power. Alexander rushes towards Jacob.
I hate you!
He begins to hammer Jacob into the ground so hard that the ground shatters, creating a hole so deep it can compare to a mountain. Alexander does not let up. He continues his pummeling.
Alexander throws Jacob up in the air, making him fly and stay up; he then jumps on the wind, going through Jacob like a slice of butter, constantly kicking and slicing him.
Suddenly, Jacob starts flying up with everything he has in his hand. The souls merge into his sword as the power flows visibly through him. He summons a rainbow orb.
Jacob: Wow, you put me on my knees. How kind of you to say that. But still, I must ask you, friend, where do your morals lie? Is it simply to kill me to serve someone to avoid my power growing too strong? Heh, an answer I don't know.
The ball of power continues to grow larger. It becomes the size of a planet, as big as the moon.
Jacob: Your stupidity will be on you. Your death means nothing to this universe. You know, you will be forgotten.
A strange figure begins to phase behind Jacob. Alexander notices his power growing more prominent as the entity forms even more. He seems to be speaking to Jacob like a shadow to him.
Alexander: DON'T IGNORE ME, DAMNIT! I'LL KILL YOU!

Jacob stands up and looks around. The battle is over. He has defeated Alexander.
Jacob takes a deep breath and exhales slowly. He is exhausted, but he is also victorious. He defeated Alexander single-handedly.
Jacob turns and walks away, leaving Alexander's body behind him. He knows that the battle has ended.
*(You hear the rain droplets hitting the ground while lovely music plays from the heavens.)
*(It fills you with Determination.) *Jacob walks through the forest questioning what he has become. Is he too strong for his own good? How could he have beaten Alexander? He begins to talk to himself* Jacob: I knew he was way more powerful. Did he hold back? I don't understand how I won. That should be figured out over time. *he continues to walk through the rain as he thinks to himself* Jacob: I guess it's raining heavier somewhere else
