Akron looked at the empty space in the portal. He didn't mean to send her away like that. He was trying to protect her, he didn't want her to meet an end in a war that took too much. But the intentions had ill fruit. Akron saw the hurt he inflicted when she left. He felt it too. When that portal closed the small straws of his humanity left with it. He stared at the air, a mix of pain and fury building up. A hate for himself, the pain and suffering he caused when he tried to save it. He took off Tempest, his old blade. He tossed it to the ground next to the portal. He wasn't worthy of being a savior or hero. He walked off. Nikki would stay with Cyber he thought to himself. He would take better care of her. He would finish the war, die in it and return to the underworld from which he belonged. Behind him the portal opened again, and someone else stepped out. (Closed I guess.)
