Jeiel stands, his face discolored and in shock. Lailani and Martha shake her in vain. Mikee wails at her lifeless body. And behind him...

Behind me was the mastermind. "PIECE OF SH*T!!"

"Ahh...." Nathan toys with the black funnel of energy he grabbed from Charon before placing it in a vial. The small container falls neatly into his pocket. "The deadliest poison in all of Monstrum Regnis... the pure essence of a Plaguespreader."

Lailani shreds at him. His solid body dissipates as he laughs.

"HE's GONE!" She screams in frustrated ire.

"Repter, she's... not dead. She's merely.... soulless." I squeeze on his shoulder - then recieve a concussive threat from Reptile King.

"REP... DON'T. PLEASE. I KNOW WHAT I HAVE TO - "

"He's THERE!" Martha spots him on the wings of the SkyHammer, newly materialized.

"Well, gang... I must say, our delightful escapade in Oz together had been an absolute fun. However... I believe I'd have to get rid of you. Starting with your 'fake' King."

I realize he was grinning towards me.

"I am not a FAKE."

"Yes, you claim. But I know better." He edges off the side of the wing. Below us, the Naether was gradually dissipating as we teleport partially to Oz. The Tree was still evident, its leaves cascading softly.

"Today, we witness a spectacle like no other! A feat in which several explorers of the Naether never find their way back to the land of MR.."

"What..." I grit my teeth. "What are YOU DOING?"

"A demonstration."

He opens the vial. The black energy drops down like liquid. A single drop falls from it....

....down to the roots of the Bleeding Tree...

"..... and your funeral."

Laughing manically, he opens a portal and was no more.All trace of him, vanished.

There and then, as I swore at my helplessness... the entire Naether shook. Naetherkin howled and screamed. Not as ominous as before... as if they were crying. I look at the Bleeding Tree and gasp.

The Tree went pale. Its trunk, rotting away. The leaves falling like hail.

"PA! THE TREE!! ITs... DYING!"

I swore. "The poison."

Shie grunted. "No. It can't be.. then..... "

The sight of Ozian skies disappeared from Repter's sight. What we saw was dark grey clouds...

And the trunk of the tree.

"SH******************************T!! IMPACT!!"
