Falling into the atmosphere, I could feel my body heat up, but it was toasty warm. I had changed so much in the past twenty-four hours, but the most significant change was my confidence.
The world had just ended a couple days ago, and I had been running around like a chicken with my head cut off, but that running was done. I finally had all the pieces to this enormous puzzle, more or less.
I reached forward, and a pair of aviator sunglasses formed in my hands, and I grew some earbuds. My mind recreated Ain't No Mountain High Enough to play back to me, and I smiled as I slipped on the shades.
There wasn't any mountain that I couldn't climb, and it was time to make my entrance. I wanted to make sure that I used every ounce of strength that I had.
This wasn't just about looking cool or kicking the bad guy's ass. I wanted to make sure that everyone saw how strong I was and that I could protect them from anything coming our way.
This was about building up confidence in everyone in the world and letting all the other Annokale that the war was over. Even if a new one was on the horizon.
[Impact in less than a minute, and I am merged with your separated consciousness. All functions are ready to go, even if I don't understand how you have done this. I didn't even know that this System could do half the things you can now.] Omega told me, and I grinned.
'Let's give them a show. I want this broadcast to every Annokale on the planet. Octavia is connecting them all back to me, the way they should have been,' I sent back.
???????????????? ???????????????????????????? ???????????????????????? ???????????????????? ???????? ????????????????????-????????????.????????????
[As you command. I am starting to understand why you were chosen and what these seven million years have been for.] Omega said.
"The past doesn't matter anymore, Omega. Only what we do now will shape our future. This is the beginning of a new age for humans and then Annokale. Now, let's go save the world!"

"Release!" Beta roared, and the ice and crystal shattered as the straight jacket was torn to pieces.
"What the hell!" Timala screamed as she was knocked down.
"How is that possible?" Diamo asked as he was also knocked down.
"You idiots! I am a clone of the most powerful being in the Universe! I am not some mindless brute like you! Now, die!" Beta roared as he reached down and grabbed Timala.
Diamo tried to stop him, but he was knocked away.
"Crystal Coffin!" Diamo screamed as he put his hands out, bouncing off the ground.
A coffin of crystal formed around Beta, but he just punched it and shattered it.
"You really think your little tricks can stop me? I am a god compared to you pathetic creatures!" Beta roared as he lifted Timala up to crush her.
"You are no god!"
A silver forty-foot-long ax smashed through the massive arm, dropping Timala. The ax morphed back into Daniel, but silver roots burst from his back to catch Timala as he landed.

I touched down on the ground and instantly connected with Mr. Tree, and I got a view of everything in my forest. I gave the Trees some power, pumping systeminium into the ground, and the rock creatures started to get pulled into the ground.
"So, you are the Hero?" The massive monster shouted as a shadow cast over the top of me.
"And, who are you?" I asked as Timala was tossed to Diamo, and my silver root shot up at the mountain that was coming to crush me.
"I am the one that will end you and take the Space Witches' heart back to my supreme leader, Alpha!" the monster roared, but the roots began to whip around me like blades.
The foot came down, but my roots shredded the rock like cheese, causing the giant to fall over before he could recover. I watched as the monster tried to fall, but I had roots coming from all the trees to hold him up and keep him in place.
"What?! How can you stop me?! I am A GOD!" The one-legged statue screamed, and I turned my back to it to see Amy come running over to me.
"Daniel! You make it in time!" Amy cried, with her eyes full of tears as she ran over to me.
"Always right where I need to be! Now, let me go help the other, and then I will be back!" I said after kissing her, but Amy gave me a strange look.
"Can't you just kill him, and it will be over?" Amy asked, but I shook my head.
"No, I need to talk to him, and I haven't gotten a chance to stretch my legs. There are still some smaller golems that are giving the girls some trouble, so I am going to go help them out. Don't worry, this guy isn't going anywhere; I need to have a talk with him before I kill him," I explained.
"Does that mean that everything is over after this?" Amy asked hopefully.
"No, things are only getting started, but we have some time to prepare for what is coming next. I will explain everything to you and everyone else when this is all over, but I have to go help the others," I said, and Amy nodded.
With that, I ran and jumped into the air, and metal wings like a dragon burst from my back with a rocket booster. Then I blasted forward towards the army of rock men that were trying to break through the defense.
The girls and Annokale were still holding, but they were all starting to get tired, so it was my turn to take over. They had all done a great job at putting aside their differences to work for a common goal, and that was important in my eyes.
Now that the test was over, it was time to wrap up and get started on the next project!
