2059: The Dark Reflection

Richard tried to throw something at Gamenark as he walked away. Gamemark then escaped through the portal with the other dark heroes.

“We gotta go after them!” Said Mark as he started to head into the portal.

Much time had passed.

Over the course of what seemed to be days, the heroes travelled from universe to universe, trying to track down Gamemark and The Dark Heroes.
The Heroes saw many universes in this time. Many countless realities, each one unique in its own way.

Soo, The Heroes were almost about to finally corner The Dark Heroes.

Meanwhile, The Dark Heroes stood outside the realm that was Shadowspace.

“Here we are.” Gamemark said to the others.

Elias twitched.
Over the past few weeks, he had been struggling to stay on the evil side. The light in him was somehow growing stronger.
And currently, it was peaking.
Elias doubled over in pain. His head couldn’t take the splitting much longer.

Meanwhile, Sadie was kneeling down in the middle of an intricate magical seal scrawled on the ground. He hands were bound behind her back.

“Why are you doing this?” She quietly asked.

“It’s simple.” Answered Gamemark.
“You are a very powerful Shadow Walker, in fact one of the most powerful in the Multiverse. With your essence, we can break down The barrier that imprisons The Shadow King.”

Shade began to approach Sadie.
“You know, it’s a shame. If only you had realized your true potential when you had the chance, instead of becoming a soft and weak…”

Sadie didn’t even hear the rest of what Shade said. Something Snapped in her, like a switch had been flipped.

She lunged at Shade, duel shadow blades formed in her hands as she wildly slashed at her evil half.

Shade flew back and slid on the ground, multiple slash wounds on her chest. She oy gasped and sputtered.
“You call that ‘Weak and Soft’?” Sadie spat, fuming.

Gamemark grinned as he watched. This was what he exactly wanted.

Suddenly, runes on Sadie’s body glowed a crimson red as a large crack form over The Barrier.
“It has begun…” Said Gamemark.

Suddenly, a portal opened nearby, and out came Mark, Richard, Conner, Hydron, Bruce, Kateina, Adam, Caesar, Xano Miro and Resonate.

“Not so fast!” Mark declared as he pointed his sword at the villains.

“Well well well, look who’s come!” Gamemark said.

Gamemark looked over to his team, and then simply pointed a finger at the heroes.

Elias twitched and whirled around, slashing and stabbing at Gamemark.
“No- more!” He growled.

Gamemark caught the blade between two of his long bony fingers.
“…oh?” He asked, cocking his head.

Elias stabbed with his other sword.

Gamemark swooped out of the way without even looking back, like he had some kind of sixth sense.

He the shot chains out to Elias.
“Get over here, you little brat!” He hissed.

Elias rolled out of the way and threw his swords at Gamemark.

Gamemark disappeared into the shadows to avoid the swords. He then appeared behind Elias, charging at him with shadow daggers.

Elias ducked and swung around with a long shadow-polearm.

Gamemark ducked as well, and punched Elias across the Room with a devastating force.

Gamemark stood above Elias, grinning.
“Your humanity is what makes you week, Elias. If you could shed that humanity, you could be as powerful as I.”

Elias slammed against a wall. He stood up, wiping blood from his mouth.
“You’re going to die for what you did to me.” He growled.
He formed a large shadow hammer and charged, swinging it at Gamemark.
At the same time, a huge shadow spike erupted from the ground beneath Gamemark.

Gamemark flipped up into the air to dodge the hammer and spike as they came towards him. He then landed agily on his feet nearby.

Meanwhile, Shade weakly stood up as she angrily faced Sadie.
“You’re going to regret this!” She hissed, as she suddenly began transforming. Shade’s body changed as it was fully covered in shadows, and she transformed into a monstrous skeletal figure. The two then began to fight each-other, slashing at each-other wildly.

Meanwhile, Mark and Gamemark tussled about.
“Take a good look, Mark.” He hissed as he was uppercut by Mark.
“What do you see?” He said as he kicked Mark in the face with his spiked boot."
“You’ve never fought someone with all your training. Your discipline.” He said, as Mark then held him by the leg. Gamemark then began to reach for something nearby. “See it yet?” He asked.
“Shut u-!” Mark tried to say, before a rock was smashed across his face by Gamemark. “I’m not The Gamemaster…I’m you.” He proclaimed.

Mark started backing away in fear. “No…you’re nothing like me!” He cried defiantly.
Gamemark just nodded in response.

“You.” He repeated. “How you are supposed to be, the version of you that is whole. The version that has fully evolved!” Gamemark declared, as his chains started snaking toward Mark.
Mark, reaching for a nearby rock spike, dove forward as he drove it into Gamemark’s chest, then shoving him aside.

Suddenly, larger and larger cracks appeared on The Barrier, a large Earthquake resonating throughout the realm.
Then, The Barrier suddenly shattered with a deafening bang.
Before everyone, stood a dark shadowy figure. He was rigid and jagged in appearanc, and had a demented grin on his face.
All the Dark Heroes bowed before The Shadow King.
“We have released you, my lord.” Said Gamemark.
Finally. I am freed.” The Shadow King said, his voice like an avalanche.

The Shadow King grew in size, shadow spikes forming all over his body as he prepared to destroy the heroes.
