Lance Korilum:
Cero returned to the arena after his defeat at the hands of Link Joker...  His face was covered in tears, yet he was still smiling, just a bit.  Holding his last copy of Dragonic Kaiser Vermillion in his hand, Cero walked on.  "

"I'm sorry...  I failed you, Vermillion...  I failed you, my friend..."  With Vermillion's sacrifice, Cero finally realized he did have one friend in this world.  A friend he had never spoken to, but one worthy of respect more than any being on the planet.  Dragonic Kaiser Vermillion.  Looking up to the sky, it began to rain again.  Returning Vermillion to his deck case, Cero made a vow.

"I make an oath to you here, Vermillion.  I will find a way to transcend and obtain the power that brought us to our knees, and use it to bring the entire world to greater heights."

Cherry:
Humanity responded with positive ideals and drives as the majority. Vanguard that is fun, joyful, a new experience, a journey, an adventure, a way of bonding. Even those with selfish Vanguards still yearned for happiness from the game. The Chosen Swordsman and Blazing Lion shined with a golden light, yellow particles gathering from all around the Earth to the stadium. Visibly struggling, being the conduits obviously took an enormous strain on the pair. Neither of them would give up, but the pain was incredibly harsh. Yukino took the hand of her friend, and gripped it tightly. Ezel responded with a fiercer grip, both giving each other their resolve to keep the other on their feet. Bladed eyes activated as the light began taking the shape of an enormous, curved sword, similar to Ezel's own weapons.

Even so, it clearly wasn't enough. There was no way they'd hold out, and Earth's power isn't enough.

So Vanguard cards began glowing. Every last one from a human being who expressed their opinions.

Yukino could see it... images of Gold Paladin giving them their wills as well. Streams of hope shot upward from each and every other nation, showing a form of unification between the planets. Earth and Cray worked in tandem by sharing their dreams to the masses. As a result, the giant weapon was finishing itself with haste, soon ending the strain of the duo. Eventually, it completed itself; the weapon of mass hope. The woman dropped to her knees, exhausted, and the caped hero followed. They were both panting heavily, trying to catch their breath instead of taking a rest, as this wasn't the end of it.

"What... now...?" Ezel asked.

"We have to... send it... to them..." Yukino forced herself up. Ezel stood up with her. Holding her arms out, she began moving the sword toward Tsubasa's gate. However, when pushing it through was attempted, the gate rejected it. Though, they noticed it had tried to break through. "Dammit...!"

"Really?! It's not enough?! The power of two worlds...?!" Ezel cringed, gritting his teeth.

"... Wait..." The queen had an idea. If the power of two worlds in one blade wasn't enough... what if she could just keep making blades until it was enough? Yes, of course! This ability that hails from the traitorous blacksmith resides in her! If this alone wasn't enough, then make it enough! That was her driving force!

"Yugure...?"

"I'm going to duplicate it!"

"... Are you insane?! Making this one took everything we had as it is!"

"And we're going to need more for them to beat Neu's true power! For it to even reach them!"

"... Alright... Fine! Everyone who thinks you're crazy is right, you know!"

"I'm not disagreeing with that notion anymore!"

Yugure smirked, accepting that a mental hospital was most likely a good home for her. Ezel, though worried, trusted her, and placed both of his hands on her shoulders. Beginning to roar in sync, large blueprints appeared on the left side of the sword. Both of the Meister's hands traced the outline of it, and forged it into existence. The girl winced, but kept going. To the right, another was forged, and her scar wound burst. The lion gave his concerns, however, she stated this still isn't enough. It was all he could do to give as much energy to her as possible while keeping her up. Bystanders and awestruck masses simply watched this woman tear herself apart, inspired by her drive. A fourth was created, her hands somehow bleeding... This divine craftsmanship... As if she's done it over and over again eons ago, and these scarlet soaked palms were results of each beautiful armament...

Those hands were clenched into fists.

Five swords total were finished. One original, four others that were replicated wills of the masses. Yes... this was something she could do. Conveying everyone's feelings and turning them into power was exactly what she could do. Waving bloodied hands, the blacksmith moved the weapons about with some form of telepathy. They whirled about in the stadium, and then stabbed themselves into the gates. The swords came out, and the gates positioned themselves in the air in front of the duo. All five passed through the gates, as if cutting them in half. The gates themselves suddenly merged, and the original blade ripped open a large hole on the sky that displayed the battlefield.

"Take this! The faith and power of two worlds! Use it to end this nightmare!"

The first went through the portal and dissipated immediately, and a thin layer of light flashed over the gap. Subsequently, the four remaining swords flew through successfully.

Yukino fainted, and Ezel caught her in his arms. He gazed into the war grounds calmly.

"So this is the end we all wanted to reach..."

Cipher Izanagi:
Seeing yet another champion go down, Seifer cringed a little. He couldn't help but feel pain for Neu as well but... He was growing anxious. Gripping the leg of his pants he bit his lip, he grew even more worried by the moment. He wished now more than ever he could go back. He wished he was able to do something again. He'd had faith in the ones after him and they fell one by one. It was almost an even trade, taking each of the clans down with them, and far more than he managed to do... And yet it still didn't feel like enough. He felt like that he needed to try and help again, and yet... He was powerless to do so. He'd lost Kagero before this started, and now with Great Nature locked away from him, what could he do? The male started to pace until the lights flashed by into the door. It actually made him jump but what made him worry more was the now unconscious person on the stage being held by a... Unit? What? And it was Ezel to? But... Trying to make all the connections in his head only made it more confusing for him to understand so he decided to push that to the side for now as he trotted over with a worried look. "Uh... Mister Ezel I guess? What happened? And were those lights? What did she just do?" he asked a string of questions, hopefully not being to intruding but he was still bothered by the fact that the champions were falling so his filter was starting to decay.

Hope:
Her mind felt as if it shattered into pieces.

Hana fell onto her knees and started screaming, grabbing her head as four gates crashed down all at once. The last one fluctuated, and she swung back and forth, her eyes still closed, trying to keep the last fighter within the space. A piece of own power came with each and every fighter, and four had been shattered. She watched within her mind, keeping the gateways open as well, but she couldn't handle the pain after the fourth had fallen. Her head felt like it was continually being hit by a hammer, swung around from all angles. She started to cry, she laid down and tears came from her closed eyes. She was now covering her face and trying to keep herself silent to now worry anyone, the rest of fighter's defeat was enough. Slowly beginning to lose consciousness, she tried to find a way to keep moving onward. Neu was using Bermuda Triangle, she saw Pacifica as well as Pacifica's evolution which she was never able to achieve herself. A truly beautiful sight to her, it was the Eternal Idol. Silently she wept, the image of her old comrades and a belief in a bright future being the old things to keep her from falling apart.

Cherry:
"Gave someone the future", Ezel stated to the one who addressed him, hopping down with his Vanguard to check on her sister.

"The future we're all going to."
