Darkness engulfed the galaxy's sky. Dimention, its shadowy, nearly formless body, raised its hand and unleashed a poisonous spell, drifting like thick fog, covering the entire battlefield. The poison spread swiftly, seeping into the bodies of the heroes. Within seconds, Astrocat, Luna, and Astrodog collapsed, their bodies weak and powerless. Their breaths grew ragged as if their strength had been consumed by the void.
Dimention smirked with satisfaction. "You are nothing but ants before me," it muttered, its glowing red eyes radiating arrogance.
However, before destruction could consume them, Luna clutched her pendant with the last ounce of strength she had. Her blue eyes shone, and she raised her hand to the sky. A gentle light radiated from her body, spreading across the battlefield. Sanctuary of Light—her healing spell—exploded in a brilliant white radiance, erasing all poison effects and restoring their strength.
Astrocat and Astrodog rose to their feet, their eyes now burning with unwavering resolve. They had regained their power—and now, they were ready to fight.
Without hesitation, the three heroes combined their attacks. Celestial Trinity Strike, a fusion of Luna's lightning, Astrodog's fire, and Astrocat's holy energy, converged into a brilliant purple magic laser. With incredible speed, the beam shot toward Dimention, striking it with a force that shook the galaxy.
A deafening scream erupted from the dark entity. For the first time, it felt real pain. But it did not relent. With burning rage, Dimention lifted its hand and unleashed Dimention Shard—opening a black portal that suddenly appeared behind Luna. In an instant, dark tendrils lunged at her, pulling her into Dimention's grasp.
Luna gasped. Dimention's massive hand clutched her throat, lifting her into the air. "You are too weak," the creature whispered in a thunderous voice.
Astrocat and Astrodog rushed to save her, but dark energy chains shot from Dimention's hand, binding them in place. Eclipse Bind—its spell that paralyzed all movement.
"Luna!" Astrocat shouted, his eyes filled with panic.
Dimention conjured a sword of pure darkness, its blade pulsating with an ominous aura. With one swift motion, it plunged the blade into Luna's chest.
Time seemed to freeze. Luna staggered, glowing blood dripping from her wound. She gazed at Astrocat, offering a weak smile as if accepting her fate.
"No!" Astrocat screamed, his body erupting in a surge of white energy. With an immense burst of power, he shattered the chains holding him and dashed forward at lightning speed. With a single slash, he severed one of Dimention's hands, causing the creature to howl in agony.
Luna fell into Astrocat's arms. Her breaths were shallow, her voice barely audible. "Use all your power... end this..."
Astrocat shook his head violently. "I won't let you die!" But suddenly, his chest burned, and a deep blue light began radiating from within him. The Reliquim Core embedded in his body reacted. Like a wave flooding his mind, he was shown memories that weren't his—but his father's, Buzz's.
Within the light, he saw Buzz standing atop the ruins of a world already lost, his body covered in wounds. In his arms lay a silver-haired woman with eyes that sparkled like stars—Queen Elaris, the ruler of Celestia. Buzz's eyes were filled with sorrow, his hands trembling as he caressed her face.
"I can't lose you... not like this..." Buzz's voice wavered, thick with grief.
Elaris smiled, though her body was fading. "The universe must go on... I trust you, Buzz. Use this power... finish what we started..."
Her light began to fade, merging with the Heart of Light she handed to Buzz. Within moments, her body dissolved into particles of light, ascending into the sky, leaving Buzz kneeling in anguish, trapped in an endless sorrow.
Astrocat felt that grief as if he had lived it himself. His breaths became ragged, his chest heavy. This was a fate that kept repeating—a warrior losing someone they loved to save the universe. But not this time. Not with Luna.
With newfound determination, Astrocat opened his eyes, now glowing with a brilliant white radiance. "I will not repeat the same mistake... I will protect her!"
At that moment, the Reliquim Core within him responded. The artifact shone, revealing the secret to unlocking its true power. Suddenly, Nyx appeared in his consciousness, bestowing all his energy upon him.
Luna and Astrocat's bodies began to glow. Radiant wings emerged from their backs, an unseen divine power surrounding them. Astrocat transformed into a Holy Knight, clad in shimmering armor and wielding a futuristic shield emitting pure white light.
Dimention, once untouchable, now seemed unsettled. It could feel the overwhelming power radiating from them.
Astrodog, still standing, charged forward, spinning his axe and summoning an Infernal Cyclone, a colossal tornado of flames that immobilized Dimention, keeping it from moving.
Luna and Astrocat didn't waste the opportunity. They exchanged a determined glance, their resolve unwavering. The light surrounding them intensified, radiating in golden and crystalline blue hues, forming swirling energy patterns around them.
Astrocat raised his shield, now glowing like the first sunrise of the galaxy, while Luna lifted her hands to the sky, summoning divine energy that descended in the form of angelic wings behind them. In perfect unison, they combined their power—the fire of spirit, the wind of freedom, the water of eternity, and the light of hope.
"This is the end for darkness!" Astrocat declared.
"And the beginning of a new light!" Luna added, her eyes shining with absolute conviction.
With power beyond the limits of mortal beings, they unleashed their final attack—Divine Annihilation. Pure white light fused with cosmic energy, forming a colossal sword of radiance that shot forward at speeds beyond the grasp of ordinary sight. The sword pierced through Dimention's body, ripping into the very core of its existence.
Dimention let out a roar that shook the cosmos, its shadowy form fracturing, splitting into cracks of dark light that scattered around it. The darkness enshrouding the entity began to dissolve, layer by layer fading away, as if the evil that had taken root for centuries was finally being eroded by divine light.
In its final moments, Dimention writhed, struggling to maintain its existence, but it was futile. Its form faded further, transforming into black fragments that were drawn into the void, no longer possessing shape, no longer wielding power.
Their combined energy created an enormous light that filled the entire expanse of space, making the cosmos shine as if it were reborn. In that moment, the universe breathed again. Darkness had perished. Light had prevailed.
Azrak, witnessing this, panicked. He attempted to flee, but Astrocat had now fully mastered the power of the Reliquim Core. With a mere flicker of his eyes, he pinpointed Azrak's presence. In an instant, Astrocat slashed through him at lightning speed. This time, Azrak truly ceased to exist.
Dimention, growing weaker, attempted to escape, but Luna held Astrocat back. "Be careful, he's going to explode!"
Sure enough, Dimention detonated in a colossal burst of energy, shaking the fabric of space-time. The resulting shockwave rippled across the galaxy, bending reality itself as if the sky had been torn apart. The explosion's light formed a spectrum of colors never seen before, merging into a dance of energy that symbolized the end of absolute darkness.
From the core of the explosion, extreme gravity began pulling everything toward it, forming a singularity that continued to contract. Dimention's formless mass transformed into a swirling black vortex, absorbing the remnants of its malevolent energy throughout space. The rift expanded before suddenly collapsing upon itself—creating a stable black hole, the perfect prison for what remained of Dimention's essence, trapping it in eternal nothingness.
Astrocat, Luna, and Astrodog remained motionless, their bodies drifting in space, watching the cosmic phenomenon they had just created. They felt the black hole's gravity pulling in the remaining fragments of energy, sweeping away the remnants of battle, locking away this dark chapter of history forever.
Yet, beyond the silence, there was something greater than mere victory. They had not only defeated Dimention but had also established a new balance for the galaxy. Light and darkness were now in harmony, two forces complementing each other in an unending cycle.
Dimention's body was completely gone, consumed by the singularity of its own making. Now, darkness was no longer a threat, but a part of the ever-turning universe.
The Heroes' Victory
The Void, who lay dying, was healed by Luna. However, he lost his magical power and was now just an ordinary being. Astrocat gathered all the artifacts and made a shocking decision—not to restore the old galaxy but to create a new one named Lactea Via.
Each artifact was used to reshape the universe: the fire artifact formed the Sun, the core of a new system that shone as a source of life. The Blade of Light became the Moon, drawn by Earth's gravity, establishing an orbit that would stabilize the newly formed planet. The water artifact created Planet Terra, an empty but habitable land awaiting life. Meanwhile, the wind artifact shaped gravity, the invisible force that held all these elements in perfect harmony.
As the star system took form, the Sun's gravitational force began pulling celestial objects around it. Asteroids and planets that once drifted aimlessly settled into stable orbits. This phenomenon mirrored how galaxies were born, with a massive central mass drawing smaller objects into an orderly cosmic system. The residual energy from the great battle dispersed throughout space, forming cosmic dust that would one day birth new stars and planets.
Meanwhile, the remnants of Dimention were trapped in a black hole, a gravitational prison absorbing the last traces of darkness into oblivion. This black hole became a fundamental part of galactic balance, much like the many black holes at the centers of galaxies that maintain cosmic harmony. Yet, unlike ordinary cosmic events, this singularity was more than a mere astronomical phenomenon—it was a tomb for the darkness that once threatened everything.
At that moment, the heroes realized they had created something far greater than mere victory: they had forged a new order for life to flourish.
As Planet Terra formed, they waited for the first signs of life to emerge. After the extinction of the dinosaurs, they returned and encountered the first humoloid—a being unlike any other, possessing higher consciousness, a profound understanding of the galaxy, and a soul that felt as though it had been destined from the beginning.
Astrocat, Luna, Astrodog, and The Void watched in awe. This being stood tall, its gaze filled with wisdom, as if it had been granted knowledge beyond the limits of its world. When it spoke, its voice was soft yet carried a power that resonated within them.
"I know who you are... I have seen the light you bring, and I understand your mission. I am the first, chosen to safeguard this balance..."
His words left the heroes in stunned silence. There was something more significant than mere chance in this meeting—as if this being had been destined to mark the beginning of a long journey for his kind. He spoke of the connection between himself and the universe, how his existence was not mere evolutionary coincidence but part of a grander design.
Astrocat and his companions watched as this being laid the foundation of early civilization with his hands and mind. He built structures that would become the legacy of his descendants—towering pyramids, colossal stone monuments, and symbols reflecting his deep understanding of the heavens and stars.
They realized this was not just the birth of a new species but the beginning of a long, unfolding journey for humanity. And in that moment, Astrocat, Luna, and Astrodog knew they had to remain, observing from afar, waiting for the right time when this species was ready to understand more about the universe.
As civilization rapidly developed, magnificent structures like giant cat statues, pyramids, and ancient temples were erected. However, one humoloid declared himself a god, enslaving his kind, treating others with cruelty. His arrogance and greed disrupted the world's balance. Nature reset them.
The sky darkened, oceans rose. Gigantic waves emerged on the horizon, as if an unseen force came to cleanse the earth of its corruption. The flood engulfed everything, sweeping away the cities built with hubris. Grand structures crumbled, statues immortalizing his rule sank beneath the waves.
Astrocat, Luna, and Astrodog watched from afar as civilization vanished in an instant. They were not surprised, for this was the cycle of nature—that when balance was disturbed, the world always found a way to restore it.
And so, they waited, watching civilization rise again. They knew one day, homoloids would reach a point where they could comprehend more than just words. They were no longer warriors on the battlefield but silent guardians, witnesses to the long journey of life.
And one day, when technology reached its peak, when humoloids finally created a way to communicate with all beings of this world—only then would they reveal who they truly were.
They waited, until the day humoloids found a way to speak to them...
