103 The Dawn Arrived (1/2)
”Are you done soon?” asks Logan as he, Abigail and Sol were looking at how Gladio and Noctis were fighting the Mystic. ”We are done when we are done. We aren't like you, who splits the clouds in the sky with just an aura,” says Noctis and the Gladio pushes the Mystic back and Noctis destroys the Helm of the Mystic and is met with his own face. ”That can't be,” says Noctis and Logan says, ”What that he has the same faces as you don't worry he is 2.000 years old and you are his descendant. I already found out that one ancestor of mine looked like me too. It's normal so just finish him already. I would be more worried if he doesn't look a bit like you.”
”Really who was it?” asks Abigail and Logan says, ”One of Shura's mortal sons. He told me that when I was talking with Jane and Gabriel about our plan against the Reapers before joining her crew to fight against the Collectors.” ”What are Collectors?” asks Sol and Logan says, ”Let's say, evil aliens. That fits best as a description if we say it simply. They kidnapped human and made a protein shake out of us.” ”That sound really evil did you stop them?” says Sol and Logan says, ”Yes, we stopped them but then their masters appeared and now we are fighting them. That's why we have to make haste. I and Abigail were helping my adopted sister in defeating them.”
After Noctis and Gladio finished fighting the Mystic. And the Mystic says, ”Please release my brother from his curse so he can finds peace.” ”He would have been in peace if you didn't kill his fiancee did you know that. You both could have ruled your own kingdom but no you had to listen to Bahamut and try to kill him. You aren't worthy to be king. A king needs to look over his people. And you failed miserably,” says Logan and the Mystic says, ”Perhaps I'm not worthy but I had to do what was needed to be. I paid the price and I'm still doing so.”
Then Noctis says, ”Do you need to be this hard.” ”He wanted to kill his brother to gain the throne just because someone told him to do so,” says Logan angry and Noctis says, ”You really must hate betrayal.” ”Boy live as long as I do and you will see many betrayals happening around you. I lost friends to it. But he tried to make a Cain and kill his brother. That's something I can't forgive. And I have forgiven someone that betrayed me before. I only hope he can redeem himself,” says Logan and begins to walk towards the Citadel while Noctis asks, ”What's wrong with him?”
”He lost his first friend to a betraying bastard that redeemed himself after some years,” says Abigail and continues saying, ”But Logan still feels he betrayed his friend by letting him die when he could have saved him even if it was against his friend wish. His friend would rather die fighting with his brothers and sisters side by side against the Darkspawn then hearing the calling and go to the deep roads to die fighting alone against the Darkspawn.”
”What is a Darkspawn?” asks Noctis and Abigail says, ”Like your Starscourge, we have the taint. Once tainted you can become a ghoul and die or even worse become a Darkspawn. They are the punishment that got out of hand by my god the Maker. It almost consumed my world until the Grey Warden appeared and fought them back. Logan is also a Grey Warden or better said was. He was pronounced dead after he killed the Archdemon. The Archdemon is like a king to the Darkspawn they only show themselves only when an Archdemon leads them.”
”And your people doesn't do anything about it?” asks Noctis and Abigail says, ”We could but our Nations aren't all on the same page but with our son and daughter there I don't think the world will end soon just because we aren't around.” ”So your kids are as strong as you and Logan?” asks Gladio and Abigail says while walking towards the Citadel, ”My firstborn is lazy but if he needs to stand up for his family he will show his strength while my daughter his twin is more serious and was Logan's hope to be his successor in everything.”
”So she must be really powerful than,” says Gladio and Abigail says, ”Not only that but she has a brain of herself. She can take care of everything. That's why Logan found it a shame that she was born a girl but he accepted it and now she is the princess of Ferelden my birthplace.” They catch up to Logan and Logan says, ”Are you ready entering the Citadel there will be no return.” ”Gladio call them to find out where the others are,” says Noctis and Gladio does as said and responses to Noctis, ”They will arrive in some minutes.”
”We go in we don't have time to lose. They will catch up with us,” says Noctis and Logan says, ”Wise decision. Let's go in and try to save your girl, boy.” They enter the Citadel and find Ardyn with Lunafreya there. Lunafreya now the Daemon Queen tries to attack Noctis with little success because Logan blocks the attack and Noctis angry says to Ardyn, ”What have you done to her.” ”I didn't do anything she did it to herself,” says Ardyn with a smile on his face. Lunafreya attacks again and again without success and Logan pushes her back and erects a barrier and says, ”Its time to talk Ardyn Izunia. Bahamut won't be able to spy on us.”
”It seems you found yourself a formidable ally while being in the crystal,” says Ardyn and Logan says, ”You want vengeance right. Well, you won't find it by killing Noctis nor by making Lunafreya miserable like this but what you did was playing in the hands of the one that was the mastermind behind everything.” ”What do you know,” says Ardyn and attacks only to be stopped by Logan who used one finger to stop Ardyn's sword and says, ”In another reality, you are a king. And the Bahamut of that reality sent me here to kill the Bahamut of this reality. He was the mastermind in wanting to kill you and the one who killed your fiancee through your brother's hand. And now it's time you take revenge against him. I will weaken him so you can kill him in the celestial realm. With that, you will fulfill your real purpose that was to save Eos from the Starscourge and the Astrals at the same time. No god to say what human should do any longer they will be free to live their own lives.”
”And why should I do that?” asks Ardyn with his smile and Logan says, ”Because you are only breathing because I want to. If not I will do it myself and take your darkness away making you human again. You will die from an emotional shock from everything evil you have done. And I will kill Bahamut myself right here right now. And you owe it to Noctis and Lunafreya. Just because Noctis looks like Somnus doesn't mean he is Somnus. And Lunafreya tried everything she could do to save you but you are too stubborn to see it.”
”Fine but only if Noctis can defeat me,” says Ardyn and Noctis says, ”So be it. I'm ready for this fight.” And Logan let the barrier fall and the begin the fight while suddenly an airship arrives and Gladio says, ”That must be the others they arrived finally.” They see how Noctis were fighting against Ardyn with all Royal Arms flying around them when suddenly Lunafreya begins to sing and Logan finding that suspicious sees Bahamut arriving at the Battlefield saying, ”I gave humanity so many chances but they always disappoint me. Even the True King can't fight against the Starscourge.”
Ardyn stops the fight with Noctis and sees what Logan meant before with Bahamut being the real villain. And Ardyn says, ”Now then young king it seems we have to suspend our fight until this is over.” Both lands beside Logan and Ardyn asks, ”How are you going to stop the Teraflare?” ”With our own Teraflare,” says Logan while walking forwards and saying, ”I summon you, King of all Dragons, Bahamut.” Then a giant Dragon appeared and says, ”Now that feels similar where am I. Oh, Logan did you summon me again.”
”I need your help with this,” says Logan pointing at the air and Bahamut says, ”You mean that version of me or the Teraflare.” ”The Teraflare just don't kill the girl she is possessed by this version of you,” says Logan and Bahamut says, ”I shame he is called Bahamut. He shouldn't carry the name of this king and sully it.” Bahamut begins to channel his own Teraflare and Logan says to the others, ”You need to begin and move. Try to get the airship down so they don't get hit by the explosion of both Teraflares. Noctis regroup with your friends once the Teraflare is shoot bring Lunafreya into your possession I will help you clean her of the Darkness. Ardyn after Bahamut is dead prepare to die and rest for all eternity while knowing you have had your vengeance against Bahamut.”
”What will you do?” asks Noctis and Logan says, ”Fight a god. It isn't my first time fighting one and it won't be the last. Abigail look after Sol and the people on the airship. I will be back soon.” Logan begins to fly up towards Bahamut and Bahamut says, ”Another human do you want to interfere in my plan.” ”I have to, after all, another you summoned me to kill you. You committed to many wrongs and your other you wants you dead. And I too. You are just a madman with too much power.” ”You are fighting a god do you think you have what it takes?” asks Bahamut while his swords become little Bahamuts and Logan says, ”Is that all. Let me show you how it's done.”
Logan clones himself a thousand times and all with his at the hand and the battle begun. Logan's goal was to exhaust Bahamut and then kill him so Ardyn would have an easy time having his revenge. They fought while Lunafreya shoots the Teraflare directly at the ground and Bahamut shoots his directly at the Teraflare making both Teraflares explode about the ground sending a giant shockwave through the air destroying the Citadel. Then the dragon Bahamut flies up and attacks the Sword God Bahamut and says, ”You aren't worthy of your name.”
Lunafreya was falling from the sky and Noctis caught her and began talking to her trying to wake her up but nothing happened the Logan appeared beside the two and Noctis says, ”Won't he notice you left the battlefield.” ”With everything going on I don't think so. Now let me look at her,” says Logan and touches Lunafreya's face and begins to absorb the Darkness she had inside her and says, ”It's time for you to appear don't you think so.”
