Back in the ruins of Embercliff, a fearful single mom, hiding from the massive swarm of protestors that stood outside, picked up her newborn baby. Kissing him on the cheek, she continued to weep in worry. "I don't think Death Desert will ever recover from this…" she whispered, locking the door and holding him in a blue, striped blanket.
Samantha sighed. "Okay, so how the hell do I get out of this situation? I'm way too undressed on a snowy mountain, Kevin and Gerald are who knows where, and some NPC is coming at me at full force…" she thought to herself, holding up her hands. Sprinting across the battlefield, Samantha was able to get a closer look at the menacing entity. "So they took a part of DDLFO… I thought that was done with when Ganin's arm got cut off… Speaking of that, where the hell is Ganin? Why the hell am I overthink-"
"Fire Suplex!" Samantha scoffed. Dodging the massive blow, she countered it with one of her own, using her wind to send the entity across the mountain. "How is she so fast!?" Guda thought to himself, trying his hardest to console the pain of the attack. In a matter of seconds, Samantha had teleported back to Guda, ready to freeze him completely. "After you die… I'll be sure to slice you to my liking!" she exclaimed, landing another fatal blow with her sword of cold ice. Guda, struggling to control his inner body, continued his rampage across the mountains. "And when I kill you, I'll make sure your grave has the luxury it needs!" Suddenly, DDLFO slapped Samantha back to the corpse of Huda, who had lived to see his demise - a death of slow pain and agony. Crashing back into the mountain, Samantha emerged from the smoke once again, leaving Guda surprised about her strength. "How are these stupid kids so strong!?" he thought to himself, stomping on the ground.
But Samantha was already finished laying her trap. Suddenly, chains of ice were set around the legs of the entitled Guda, leaving him screaming for freedom. "DAMN IT!" he exclaimed, continuing the struggle for his life. Samantha, charging back up to the field where her restrained opponent laid, smiled. "You said I was a dumb kid. Now, you'll freeze to death!" she exclaimed. Holding her hand up, the layers of hard, cold ice Samantha was casting on Guda left him in true agony. "This battle ends now - and I'm the winner!" were the last words he could possibly hear - and he couldn't see any of his family due to his crushing defeat. Guda, accepting defeat, sighed. "I'm sorry, Aybara. I failed everyone… I should've listened to everyone while I still had the chance." he thought to himself before getting completely frozen. Silence stood upon the battlefield. "Now, time to break this guy!" she exclaimed.
Two of three battles had finally finished. Samantha had won against Huda and Guda Faimasa.
Back outside the burning venue sat Alex, who was full of boredom looking at the beautiful view that sat before him. "I can't believe I finally have a chance of returning to Crystal City this time…" he thought to himself. "I hope they still remember the memories we made with Fal…" he continued, holding up an old picture of 6-year-old Kevin, Gerald, Samantha, a 5-year-old Michael, and an unknown boy that sat in the back of the group photo. "I hope he's doing okay…" he said, setting the image back in his pocket. Suddenly, he felt shaking below and around him. "What the hell!?" he thought to himself. "We're already doing a lot, now more chaos is unfolding?" Looking around once again, he was surprised to see that Aybara's soldiers had just arrived. Counting more than 1,000 units of the terrorist organization, Alex clenched his fists. "You idiots. Half of your organization is probably already dead!" he announced. "Don't worry, I'll make sure you share the same fate as them!" Suddenly, everyone in the massive swarm charged at Alex. "If I die, I won't be able to return to Crystal City. So, I'll live through this no matter what!"
