Two claws raised the Technomancer up into the air. The warlock began panicking, trying to understand what was going on. "Micheal?! What are you doing?!" She asked as she tried to break free. "Micheal?..." I asked. "Dad?... Dad?!" The titan I saw deep in the citadel lair last week was my dad! "Ending this, once and for all!" The titan replied. "What about everything I have given you?! Your augmentations!!" "You turned me into a monster!" "Wait!" The Technomancer shouted, trying to make a bargain. "Your mind is bound to mine! If you kill me now, you will also die!" The Technomancer continued. "I don't care..." Michael replied with a dark tone. "Why are doing this?! For them?!" The Technomancer screamed. She was powerless now. "He's my son!" Just after those words were uttered, two blades pierced Vanessa's chest; one through her heart, the other through her right lung. The SIVA that suspended us in air had deactivated and dropped us back to the ground. Guun Ji and Lady Sif screamed in agony while clenching their heads. The SIVA in their head was overloading, causing them to suffer until both of their heads literally exploded. All of the SIVA in the area, the drones and all, deactivated. It was over. I pushed myself up to see Michael, my dad, had also collapsed on the ground. "Dad!" I yelled as I ran up. "Can you hear me?!" There was no reply. Blake, Dakota, and Kourtney joined me up on the slope as well while Angel and Silajir searched the war zone for any survivors. "I'm sorry, Alan..." Kourtney said as she wrapped her arms around me. I couldn't look up; I was glued to my dad's body. "Alan?" A voice said from behind. "Hey... bud... You might want to look..." Blake said as he stood out of the way. I turned to see who it was. "It's okay. Look," Sara, my mom, said. She must have just transmatted to the surface. "Nice fightin'..." My dad said. I turned back to the ground, but Michael's body was gone. He was revived. "Wh... What?..." I mumbled. "After I heard your ship crashed in the Plaguelands, I feared the worst. Before all of this happened, I gave my ghost to your mother. That way, if I were infected, I could be resurrected..." My eyes were huge; I couldn't emotionally process everything going on. "So... you're... alive?" I asked, still dumbfounded. "Yes, I'm alive. But Alan, we did it; Vanessa and her goons are defeated. We can go home now," my Dad replied. I crawled over to my exo friend. "What about Colt?" Colt raised up his shaking hand and placed it on my chest. "Don't worry... about me... It's over for me... Everything is fading away... I can... already see the Light..." Colt raised a finger to the sky. "Father, is that you? I would've called, but I didn't have your number!..." "Come on, Colt! You can't die now! Not now!" I said while shaking his robot frame. Colt rolled his eye and huffed. "I'm not dying, you dumba**!" He shouted at me in his normal, moderately deep voice. I jumped back. "But... What?..." "She stabbed my SIVA body, not me..." Colt looked around. "Could you get me out?..." I pulled out my knife, then began cutting Colt's ghost shell free of all of the SIVA wires. The black shelled ghost flew up, then looked at the mechanical body. He sniffled. "I'll miss you..." he said in a weepy voice. Kourtney crouched down, looked to me and tapped her helmet to mine. "Let's go home," she said. "Hey, kid. Still thinkin' you had to take the 'lone wolf' route?" Silajir asked as he and Angel joined us. I simply chuckled and got up, helping Kourtney up as well. I looked around at the, now seven, Guardians standing around me.
