Chapter 70 - 70.) Out with this Despair?? Spring Forth into a New Era!!

I... am Atomen. I am the very existence and representative of Particles for my Omniverse. I am a being born to malice and purity in the form of a gorgonic queen. I was born naturally alongside my four siblings, the middle child is my overall position. Though, besides Harpen, I managed to rise above everyone else, including my brother, Rashomon. A Stuliathan who failed to attain the same thing I did this time around. A failure we'll both have to live with, no matter the plain of existence we live within.

My entire existence, I've tried my damn best to rise above the expectations and reality placed upon me. My father, the one known as Taipanevil. He is the scourge of all things Stuliathan, an absolutely vile being who would betray his own kin to gain an upper hand. An Archduke of Evil, no... THE Archduke of Evil. He has ambition, he has the means to do what he wants, to gain what he believe he needs. A being beyond all things malicious within our Omniverse, even this one from what I've seen. Quintillions have died to his power, his disgusting methods of accumulating it. There's literally nothing he wouldn't do, including amassing power through unnecessary means. Like slaves, usurping whole systems, rape, theft, and many more crimes. The worst of all...

My siblings and I were nothing more than nourishment for him. All so he could gain the strength needed to take the fourth Omniverse. To become a truly Omnipotent being, an Omni-being that fits every philosophical idea, every meaning to the word and aspect of such complex beings. Though, that was all something for me to worry about no more. For my father had vanished, and my mother... Returned.

Even then, none of that matters now, because not even Harpen can save me from what's about to fall into my being, as well as Josie's own. A sacrifice he was happy to make so long as it meant ZeeNanasa and the others... Could attain victory!

Atomen came to from his dreaming. Watching as the colossal spear rained down from above. He could hear all of our voices cheering for this outcome. Pouring our belief and trust into the technique as we encouraged our three mighty leaders. Shiishiigami, Gaia, and Xenophia were all smiling with excitement. Those smiles would soon turn into faces of absolute determination. Their power and effects being boosted by our trust and belief being poured into them. It was at this very moment that Atomen knew... he...

"Yeah, Zee. I believe... I've finally lost." The light glimmered on his face, and all of ours as well. Then, a sudden flash of white engulfed the void around us for more than fifteen Colossaverses. Something that didn't sit right with me whatsoever. Atomen withstood stronger attacks, even if he is tired.

Their attack disappeared as quickly as it came. From it, came a cloud so large, it made Colossaverses look tiny in comparison. At the center of that cloud, Atomen still remained, though he was in tatters. Plus... all five of his supporting concepts were blown apart. Completely Annihilated by the combined might of all of us that now surround him. ZeeNastasia and YeeNessa came to pick me up, tears flowing from their eyes. We all were shedding tears at this point, and when I say all. I mean ALL of us from Annihilo-Sect to Young STRIFE, and even STRIFE itself. All of us were shedding tears when reflecting over our losses in this battle that lasted two whole years.

"Mhm, he's still there. So wipe those tears and walk forward until he's sealed, or turned into dust!" ZeeNasia claimed. She and YeeNosha walked ahead of us, drawing their blades in preparation for slashing him to billions of pieces.

Shiishiigami and Gaia would go on to use their scythe and scepter to blow the cloud away with one large swing. Xenophia met up with her daughters, Xenoshaa and Xeno. They took, drew their weapons, increasing their cadence on steps. Several others could be seen running towards Atomen as well, but that wasn't what I could even focus on. I caught wind of some odd shadow being blown towards the first positive Colossaverse in our Omniverse. It flew outwards just after they cleared the cloud. I wanted to pursue it, but it was beyond my capabilities as of now. Plus, I could no longer ignore Atomen's moving body. He was charred, slashed up, missing an arm he couldn't grow back. His tail was missing, his genetic mask? Torn. His eyes were evaporating from the bombardment of essence they took on, and his damn head was split open like a busted orange. Who knew a Stuliathan that's been stripped to it's last would actually have anatomy truly similar to our own. I mean the guys brains were sorta... pouring out in a way and that shit was fucking maaaad nasty bruh. No shade either, I'm just being honest here.

Though, I can say this... It does break my heart that, despite her killing two of my best friends. She was just helping her brother achieve a silly dream. I bet she was even hopping he'd give up. At least then, she wouldn't have to lose the rest of her siblings like this. She's no different than me, considering we wiped out all of her friends as well. I could tell they lived all four of them, but they fucked up. They shouldn't have come here, and she wouldn't have lost so much in the process. Her tears told me that much, the regret within them carried an unbearable weight. I couldn't even look her way anymore, sad to say. Instead, I looked towards Atomen, screaming like a maniac as charges what little essence he had left.

"GUUUUOOOORRRGH!!! Face my mighty BANGSTR-

Before he finish that sentence, more than twenty deities vanished into the void. Blitzing his person with more than one billion strikes within a fucking attosecond. It was quite the sight to behold, if I could actually keep up with their speed when fatigued in such a way. Back then I couldn't see it within that moment, but soon after healing, I viewed it all from beyond the scopes of time and space. The glorious moment when we can finally rejoice, finally celebrate that this awful stamp in our timeline can be put to an end.

We rejoice!

We reJOICE!!

WE... RE... JOICE!!!

The booms of our victory spread into the many Colossaverses beneath us. Signaling our victory to them all. Soon... The entire Omniverse began to rejoice right alongside us. Screaming to the top of their lungs in relief, but also I'm sadness and despair. For so much was lost within this unforgivable nightmare of an event. The day Particles stoo-

"Hold that thought, ZeeNanasa." A voice called from behind our group.

"Who is- Seightahn!? And... who.. are... you?"

"Yeah, Zeezee, it be me again." Seightahn walked over to Shiishiigami and the others. Shaking their hands as he greets them all. I could tell the guy was fucking untouchable damn near, but even moreso. This Stuliathan before me, she was even beyond Seightahn, and it's not by a small margin. Not by any means!

"Heh, that's amazing of you to be able to tell with just a glance. Practically all of you here are more than strong enough to tell! I love it!" She and her many snakes blushed at us all.

"Now then."

She snapped her fingers, and to our shocking surprise. Out came a tattered Minatotowein and Maleignos.

"Apologies Zee, but I can't allow you guys to take my children from me. I warned Atomen ahead of time, so I allowed him to draw his own fate. But Harpen and these two have yet to pursue their own paths, unlike Rashomon and Atomen. So I would like to allow them that chance, I can only apologize to all my old friends so much. I am truly sorry, my Annihilo-Sect fam." She bowed her head, hoping for our forgiveness.

"For some odd reason, you feel so familiar. Just who are you?" Kolipso asked.

"Yeah, I feel the same way, brah. This is wild stuuuufff!" Dila added on.

Everyone else pretty much piled on the same interest. She could tell we weren't focused on forgiving her, because it felt as though we already have. We could almost feel who she is, but it would be impossible. They're very beings are too different.

"Funny you all should ask, especially you, sister Kolipso."

"Sister?" Kolipso's face lit up for some odd reason.

"Yes, sister. For you see, you might as well be our fourth sister. We three queens who rule under the mighty Queen Purinityzahmisa that is. Though, it's even deeper than that. I am Medusaria Marza-Bangstrom. I was the very first Kolipso to be sent through that hole that nearly got you Kolipso."

"W-W-W-Wait!! You're... ME!?" Kolipso blurted it out before the rest of us could.

"Damn, I wanted to ask that." Ri-ohhanna stated snapped her fingers in disappointment.

"Well, yes. For you see, I was sent through that hole, it was one that sent me into the Absolute Void. A place where all four Omniverses can be seen sitting side by side. What I saw there... It will forever be etched in my mind. I could actually see the three beings of the Omni level, next to their Omniverses. They were the Pronos, massive entities that looked identical to their Omniverses, but in actual humanoid form. Forms they wouldn't allow me to see, unfortunately, but the one that rules over the Stuliathan Omniverse took interest. She sent me towards the beginning of it all for our Omniverse, the Fourth Omniverse. It was a time well before it was created, one where I directed endlessly, absorbing concepts whenever they ran into me for more than five million years. Then... I witnessed it all. All things at the beginning and well after this, even the end of the mainline. It was glorious, but that's not for you to know."

"Tch, I can't see it either." I replied.

"Of course not, I exist outside it all, but I chose to come here personally to see my beloved Annihilo-Sect. Plus... I am Nigh."

"Did she just say-

"Yeah, she did, sis. She's of the Nigh, you can tell just by looking at her. She's up there with the king and queen siblings of the Stuliathan Omniverse.

"But, she is Kolipso, is she not? A mere child-

"Oh no darling, I'm far older than everyone here except two of you. Though one is here in spirit, hehe. Anyways, I managed to become nigh as I evolved into a true Stuliathan. Becoming what you see here, though I've grown even more since then. More than the eight other versions of us that I created. Sending eight other Kolipso's through that same process after speaking with the Pronos. Now exists three of our siblings in all three primordial Omniverses. All of them have altered their DNA to match to that if a sibling relationship. Three trios of identical twins, and you... The youngest." She plucked Kolipso's nose, which made her turn red with embarrassment. Just like a younger sibling would.

Medusaria smiled brightly at her, then called down her daughter within that next moment.

"You look scruffy and your breasts are out dear. Actually... All of you look terrible- Mhm, Seightahn, darling. Be a dear and mesh your essence with mine. Let's heal this peons, hmm?"

"Heh, yeah, we can do that." He smirked at Shiishiigami, Xenophia, and Gaia as if to tease them. All three turned their faces, trying to fake as if they don't acknowledge him.

Their hands waved and our bodies were healed and replinished completely. Felt like an all-restore in a Final Fantasy game.

"Ah, now that that's done. I flipped through ZeeNanasa's and Atomen's meshed comic. I can see that you've aligned yourself with someone whose fate crosses with my own. I love that you have your own path, it's one that can't see. I actually can't see a few here, but most of them are do to their alignment with Lady Clarissa." Medusaria smirked at Clarissa, Xenoshaa, Zeramera, and Shiitania.

"Heh, whenever you begin to collect, you four should know what to do." She turned as her two sons faded into the void.

"Oh you know I got us, Medusa. It'll been when the treacherous ways of my two baby cousins begins." Clarissa waved her hand goodbye to Medusaria.

"Heh, good. You coming, Tahny?"

"Mhm... Nah. I've got a few more years of story to watch. Reading it won't do it justice, seeing it has to happen."

"What the hell are you talking about, Seightahn?" I lashed at him for a feint.

*Tuh, of course you can't see it, they won't allow it right now. Anyways, ZeeNanasa... There shall come a light within your life that is equal to ReighHeem II's own. It will not be a child of any kind, any kind mate, because you aren't the type. Regardless, it will be a light that reshapes the very nature of your story...

To be.

Days would go by after that mysterious speech from Seightahn. Days that were drenched in sorrow, sadness, despair, and the many moans of mourning. The days dragged in, especially after having to tell our children that their father is gone. The amount of heartache it caused will forever be etched within my soul. To see my babies break down in such a way, it was more than I could bear. It didn't get any better when the memorial service for all that were lost was eventually held. That nearly broke me, because I had to sit there and watch all of my friends and so much family leave it all on the floor. The screams and moans of sorrow mixed with the bellowing howls of crying.

Yeah, that shit nearly broke me entirely.

After the days of memorial services and constructing monuments in the honour of our fallen heroes. Everyone returned to their clans to process everything, and move forward the in the way things should be. What we all viewed as normal, but that was a naive sentiment and idiotic idealisms. Instead, we must move forward with reality, and every single one of us knew it.

Within my home clan, Annihilo-Sect, they use a method identical to what was used in the clan called Gahwardia. A Colossal moon was created to seal Griffaduff within. All with the hopes that someone with great compatibility would one day come along who can use his power. Someone they can seal Griffaduff within. In the same way Harpenyoloko found her mist compatible partner. Allowing herself to be sealed within him while five percent was left out as a familiar. It set up some of the new era for many of us.

Some time would go by within our Omniverse. Every year felt the same, it felt kike it all meshed together and passed through. My soul could barely be touched by anyone for quite some time. It took far longer than I'd like to admit, far longer than what it should have taken me. There isn't a day that goes by where I wasn't pissed at myself for that. Sitting around, loafing about within my despair as the years went on and on. Once a few hundred thousand finally shot by, I was at least able to have fun with everyone and be with my family more often. It was around this time that a new generation of Deities were being born within the Omniverse. A new era had begun, one where Chaos has finally settled down. An era they call, the Era of Peace.

New generations were being born anew. Such as a goddess with a heavy fate around her, and the younger sister of Clarissa and Hakeem. Her name is Fluorescent-Gaia Senkozen II, and she is the second coming of life. A goddess destined to bring great change to this Omniverse, alongside two others. She ended up being the eldest of sextuplets, and with them came the quadruplets of Shiishiigami and Kiimillima. The two most known of the four, Morzick and Zenki, would go on to bring in the remaining two of Gaia II's trio. Their generation would be the beacon that guides the Generation of Saviors. I was happy to hear about all of this, but even still. I just couldn't stop thinking about him.

I couldn't truly pay attention to anything going on around me, so I've obsessively mastered auto-pilot to mend any relationships I might've broken. To make sure everyone knew I was ok for the most part. But, even... STILL.

Why must I suffer like this?

Why must my sorrow torment me so!?

Why can't I seem to move beyond this without the light my Heemy brought to me??

Why?

Why!?

WHY!?!

This is all I could ask myself throughout the many eons that would contribute to Gaia II's generation and their hard work. I just, couldn't help it. I couldn't dig my way out of this hole, even when I was in missions to help my little sister. Or with my cousin, YeeNessa, and our fellow ambassador, Sinnthia. Even she managed to help herself and Timone rise from the depths of where my soul is now. I envied her like nobody's business, I tell ya. Luckily for me, after nearly three million years of life. I finally came to hear the voice, see the spirit of a being whose light engulfed my entire soul. The darkness grew bright from that day forth.

A few years would go by after that, constant visits from that same voice became more frequent. Their tone become deeper, more confident, more brass and bold. Their image began to become more clear, and when I heard them for the last time... An image of a man who looked identical to my father. Shit, I believed he was when I saw him, but I was wrong. I was so very wrong, in the very best of ways!

"Yea~heaaaa!! You have finally come to see the light that will guide you, Zee. I'm happy for you, truly!! He who will help guide a few family members of mines into the promised tomorrow. He will be a great asset that brings about the nature of your role even more than you can. For he is one of the many few, the very few that throughout this Omniverse that will come to master the concept of, and become a true Hero. He is my true enemy that I've waited countless years to meet. Annihilation's great hope and salvation, the god known as...

ZeeArc!!!"
