Asriel glares at Ricky a moment before Echo hugs him.

"He doesn't understand how much you know about power and what it makes you." She mutters. "You need to rest."

"I don't."

"Except you've been feeding your power into me. You do."

"CAN'T WE ALL JUST BE NICE?" Beck snaps suddenly.

---

The temple stopped shaking. He would leave them for now. He watched them through an eye that had sneaked in the room.

Loli makes her way to Ricky."What happened?"She asks as her wing shuffle a little bit and start to grow."I..I'm fine.R..Really.Just a small e..electricity charge is a..all."Nyx answers.

"I was trying to be nice. Matt wanted power. I offeree it to him, asked Asriel what power I should give him trusting his judgement. He then tells me not to play god for being nice and threatens me. I am the nice guy here." Taking a deep breath after his outburst he handed Nyx to Loli, "Give me permission to pursue him please."

"Really? Guess we must have different opinions of 'kind', then." Beck says coldly, walking off, deeper into the cavern.

She stalks down a weird passageway, entering a room that looked like some sort of dungeon. "Huh, this looks cool." She says to herself, touching a weird podium. Suddenly, Beck begins to feel dizzy. She screams as she collapsed onto the ground.

Ricky frowned, "Never mind." Rushing off he frowned at the podium as he picked her up, "Asriel! She touched random crap."

Loli shakes her head."I..Is everything alright m..mama."Loli looks down at Nyx."Yes sweetie.Just a bit tired is all and ready for Simon to be delt with."She tells Nyx."Oh alright."

Asriel frowns, dashing off. He scoops Beck out of Ricky's arms, holding her carefully. "Heart regular. Breathing fine. What's the problem?" He mutters.

Ricky began to think...maybe he should join Simon. He'd kill a few birds with one stone. First and most important he could protect his friends. Second would be watching Simon. He'd also avoid all who annoyed him and could stop acting nice.
"Magic. Duh."

"All magic has a scientific explanation if you look hard enough." Asriel replies.

He sat on what seemed to be an old throne

---

"I am considering joining Simon. Talk me out of it in your usual insufferable but smart way." Ricky mused kicking back.

"Not the time, Ricky. Beck's unconscious and you don't even care. Shut up and let me for once fix someone I care about." Asriel growls.

Beck shifts, in slight consciousness. She slips into a dream.

"So you're here.".

"Huh?"

"Rebecca of Nohr. I am the forgotten dragon. That which you harness."

"Anakos?"

"Yes, child. Forgive me for this, but you are not of true Nohrian lineage. You are in fact the rightful heir to both kingdoms- Valla and Nohr. The mark on your arm."

"Anakos, please- am I truly of your blood?"

"Child, that is true."

Beck wakes up.

Ricky nodded a bit, "And you wonder why we fight."

Noemi smiled softly parting his back, "I know, I am not your Noemi. Your Noemi has kids and is a mother. That being said, don't join him. I know you are thinking something about protecting us or watching Simon, but we can do it without you joining him."

Ricky nodded as his eyes became watery, "Oh Noemi!" Tears streaming down his face he hugged her.

Noemi was taken aback but she soon began patting his head. "Let it all out."

Loli smiled sadly as she watched the scene between Ricky and Noemi."I..Is papa going to be a..alright?"Nyx asks her softly."He will be eventually my sweet daughter."Loli responds before picking Nyx up and hugging her close to herself.

Noemi smiled a bit sadly, "How long ago did you lose me?"

Ricky shook his head, "I told you, you had kids and moved on."

"You hide the future from my Ricky however you told me my future. It was obviously a lie. So what really happened?" Noemi asked.

"I told....you no...but you....stubbornly went...along...anyway. Why didn't I stop you?" Ricky choked out.

"Please don't cry. I am sorry I caused you such pain. That being said I chose it. Today start anew. Maybe write a book, or become a family with Nyx and Loli."

Loli and Nyx left the room Noemi and Ricky were in.They deserved some time alone.Nyx was busy playing with a rubix cube while Night was healing what she could of Nyx' mental signature.

Ricky nodded crying a bit more as Noemi stroked his chin. "You remember the song you sang for me right? The anime one?"

Ricky nodded.

"Sing it one more time please." Noemi asked.

Ricky cleared his throat.
"Wandering trapped in endless night
Losing the meaning of existence itself
I can't return to the past, don't you dare to know
All things that I believe are crumbling
I don't want to see the reality on my darkest days
I can't get out of my circumstances, I don't know where to go
Do you know that hope is fake in this world
And despair is the only truth I got?
So slash apart the darkness!
I can't retain my limits. Why I must bleeding?
I can't escape from the melancholy, I'm struggling at my limits, at the verge of going mad, because it will never end
I have anything to believe in now
What can we see in this life?
I'm no match for this suffering world!

There is nothing to do even with these open eyes
I don't want to lie at myself anymore
But those realities smash my mind
Why do we live? Why this place?
Where to complain? Who will understand me?
Where is this damned truth?
Slaying myself all the time, who will have mercy for me?
Like what? Like who? Like this, like that, no reason, oh God, why?
This infernel life
Goes on to my last one
I hope for my liberty!

Don't think we would walk on an extended path,
It's just a step
Don't think we would walk on an extended path,
It's just a step
Don't think we would walk on an extended path,
It's just a step
Nobody tries to understand what we're saying!
I am more than ten! Are you dumb ar what?

I want to destroy my limits, that's my last scream!
I can't avoid the reality
No pain, no gain, I'll absolutely resist it if really there is an end
What do I expect?
Apokalypse now!
This suffering world won't change."

Noemi nodded, "Oh how I loved it."

"We listened to it religiously" Ricky joked.
