Jababharth

Chapter 21

July 26, X11

Stella was sitting near the porch of her room. She had placed the room full of darkness. Ever since, the time she have woke up from the coma, she have felt a little disturb. She cannot put it in words. Every time somebody asked her what is wrong, she answer that she have lost her Beyblade and Bit-beast in the attack. It was a precious thing for her.

She was standing at the shady place in the house. She started to not sleep in the night and sleep in the daylight. Tired of this she was standing out when, her grandfather came by to tells her that she had a visitor. It was Parvathi Nair.

Parvathi have a boy a few months ago and decided to meet up with Stigma to understand the current situation. She meet Putri and Stella in the garden of Stella's house.

"Hello. There. How have you been?" Parvathi asked them.

"I know you!" Putri said as Pickachu came down the seat. "You are the famous beyblader in the world who defeat demons as well." She said with excitement.

"Yes, that is me. And you must be Putri." She smiled. "I have something for both of you."

Parvathi gave Putri a box with a puzzle to solve it. She went into the living room without say bye. Ryu decided to take both of them – Stella and Parvathi - to another room. After sitting down on the floor, Sylveon sat on the Stella's lap like it always does.

"So, I heard that you have quit Beyblade. May I ask why?" Parvathi started the conservation after a dead silence for two minutes.

"I am… taking… a break." Stella murmurs. "I do not know what to do without my Beyblade that my mother saved for me."

"It is okay to lose something that it is precious. But it is something else that is bothering you. Do you want to tell somebody about it?"

"I do not… think I can tell anyone about anything about it." Stella panicked. "I do not want to hurt anyone about anything anymore. I have hurt a lot of people…"

"Who did you hurt my dear? Did someone told you about it?"

"Yes. A demon named Brooklyn and Gana uncle told me. They said that I am an unnecessary tool in some things. And…" She almost started to cry.

"Well, why don't we used to ask the Ultra-Beast from the Aloha region that question." Parvathi took out a Nebby Pokémon from an Ultra Poké-ball.

Nebby did take some memories from Stella's mind. She then transport Stella to some places in her mind where she had fun. It was her favorite café, her favorite room, the place where she and Takao Beyblade together, and most important place in the world, her dad office in Japan.

Stella then saw her Bit-beast – Sagatories. It wanted to be part of Stella life. It want Stella to spin her Beyblade with her.

Stella said, "I remember... when I first met you, Sagatories...

You were just a little Pokémon, lost and alone in the world, and I was so scared of you... I didn't even want to touch you.

But now, here I am, holding you close. I... I've learned so much.

And... this time, I can feel it. I feel like I've finally found the courage to move forward... I can touch you now."

Then a Beyblade appear it front of Stella along with her launcher. She launch the Beyblade and suddenly she was back in reality. Stella realized that she did not need to hide anything form anyone. She took Kyojyo's Beyblade that she got from him and add Sagatories bit-beast on top of the Beyblade. Parvathi bids them farewell and went back home.

 July 27, X11

Stella went to the bey stadium from her memories where she launch the Beyblade. She felt at first overwhelmed by its power but then slowly started to gain control over the Beyblade. As such she became powerful over time.

Later, Parvathi send a parcel containing a new red shirt and pale skin color skirt with reaches to the knee. She got white color sock with red shoes and a red color ribbon.

Stella wore the dress and battle Takao in the same arena. The match was simple and easy, but it ended up as a draw. Stella tells Takao that she cannot cure herself over this but will tries learning new techniques.

Chapter 22

August 1, X11

Few days later, the Fathom Five along with Hiromi were walking in the forest at the dusks light when they heard something. They were walking to finds some demon nearby, which was where some kids were missing a few days ago.

The sun had just dipped below the horizon, casting a fiery orange glow over the city of Tokyo. From deep within the forest outside the town, a rift in the fabric of reality began to open, tearing the skies with an ominous black light. Demons—creatures of nightmarish power—began pouring through, their eyes glowing with an otherworldly fire.

Nashe, the fire dragon slayer, stood at the front, cracking her knuckles and grinning." We're gonna roast these demons!" Nashe declared, her fists burning with fiery anticipation.

Hiromi Tachibana tightened her grip on her keys, ready to summon her spirits. "Be careful, everyone. These demons don't look like your typical dark guild goons," Hiromi said, her voice steady but filled with concern.

Gajjel cracked his neck, his usual confidence unwavering. Teepa glided and spoke. "I'll handle the ice work, as always."

Erza, standing poised and ready, adjusted her armor and glanced at the group. "Let's be smart about this. We don't know how many of them there are. Lucy, summon your spirits to support us."

Nagini grinned widely. "Aye, Nashe! This'll be fun!"

With the group united, they rushed toward the source of the rift in the forest. The demons were already wreaking havoc on the outskirts of the city, their twisted, grotesque forms clawing at anything in sight—destruction was their only goal. The Fathom Five team arrived just as the first wave of demons emerged from the rift—twisted creatures with enormous, clawed hands, spiny wings, and eyes that glowed like coals in the night.

"Fire?" one of the demons growled in a deep, rumbling voice, stepping forward. "The Flame of a Dragon? It's been centuries since I've seen one." Nashe's eyes flared with intensity. "You won't be around for long to see anything else." She leapt into the air, her flames turning into a massive inferno as he unleashed Fire Dragon's Roar. The fiery blast tore through the demon, incinerating it to ash. The remaining demons snarled in fury.

Hiromi stepped forward, unlocking her Celestial Keys. "Open, Gate of the Leo—Loke!" The golden lion appeared in a flash of light, roaring with power. "Time to roar!" Loke lunged into the fray, attacking the demons with powerful strikes, his golden mane shimmering with celestial energy.

Meanwhile, Gajjel and Teepa was already on the move. Teepa body was surrounded by ice as he dashed forward with a Diamond Dust attack, sending a storm of sharp ice spikes at the demon horde. The cold instantly froze several of them in place, shattering them into icy fragments with a single swipe of his hand. "These guys are tougher than they look," Gajjel muttered as another demon rushed him. With a smirk, he summoned Iron fist, encasing his fist in a layer of iron, and sent it flying directly into the demon's face, sending it crashing to the ground.

Erza wasn't far behind. She dashed toward the demons and unleashed her The Morning Star sword technique, her blades flashing like a storm as she cut through the demon ranks. Each swing was precision and power—her movements elegant yet deadly. One demon, slightly larger than the others, lunged at her, claws aimed for her throat. The armor's black and red plates glowed with fierce energy as she swung her sword to deflect the demon's strike, then countered with a devastating blow to its chest, knocking it back several meters.

Afterward, once all the 10 demons were defeated, Teepa asked, "What should we do?"

The sun came out, and all the demons vanishes in thin air. All except the blue skin demon. He was shivering when Putri came to the scene. The demon scream and immediately jump to the top of the tree.

"Please do not hurt me." He said shivering.

"You are the demon that survive the attack isn't it." Putri said jumping. "I broke your spine also."

"Well, I will do anything as long as you do not hurt me. OK?" he cried.

"Okay" Putri said as other looked in disgust.

"Take him to the Stigma headquarter. He will be asked few questions by others." Ezra commanded.

Chapter 23

August 3, X11

In the Avengers hide-out in Tokyo, Stigma was gathered there to interrogate the blue skin color demon. His long hands are cuffed to the chair. He was scared and frightened with Putri who is drinking a chocolate milkshake with Pickachu. Outside the room, is a thin glass which Captain America and Iron man is watching.

"So, are telling me why your skin is blue?" Putri asked looking at the Demon as if she is going to eat him.

"Please get away from me." The demon said scared.

"Putri. Get out of here." Doctor Strange said as he enter the room.

After Putri and Pickachu left, Doctor Strange introduced himself,

"I am Doctor Strange. And I will decide whether you will live or not. Why did you attack the Madhu City? What is the purpose behind it?"

The demon started to cackle. "Purpose? I was summoning by my master Swapna to destroy the city and killed all the Seas. But this mere child scared me."

"A child? You are telling me a little kid scared you?" Doctor Strange laughed.

"You think of me as a fool? No. That girl was not raise properly. She was raised by Queen Pari. That means that she is trained to be stupid. But instead, she is intelligent. That means she a golden child. The Destroyer of Demon." The demon said.

"I was raised properly" Putri screamed at the intercom. "If fact I can tell you that you were not raised properly."

"Get off the intercom" Iron Man said.

"Instead focusing on Putri, why could you tell me the truth about the attack?" Doctor Stranger said.

"You are doubting me? I will tell you. My master lord summon me here to destroy Queen Parsi after she recruited Gana. Do you know that Gana killed so many of my brothers? They commanded me. I had no choice."

Doctor Strange cutting in, "Actually. It is possible. Nobody here liked Gana. He killed all of Late Queen Parsi's children and three granddaughters. And Putri is smart enough. She reads a lot of magic books. Children with the right knowledge, especially those who have access to dark artifacts or forbidden magics, can sometimes channel powers beyond even their comprehension."

The demon's eyes had fear in them. He growls, but his posture shifts. It's clear he's reluctant to give up the information, yet something is pushing him to the edge.

The demon hissed, "Do you remember the time where Gana is found guilty, but Queen Pari saved him. Ever since then, they plan for something else. Queen Parsi wanted to put Gana on the throne. But our secret agent, Indumathi told us that Queen Parsi wanted Gana to become her son-in-law. But she couldn't because her daughter were somewhat married or something. So, she made a pact with Swapna that she will get Gana back if she agree to tell the spy named in the city. She told out of foolishness, and it result in losing her best friend.

After Indumathi was executed, Gana blamed Swapna for everything and then snitch on Swapna saying that she will destroy the city on the commanded of our mighty deity. Instead, the deity turned the back on Gana and banished him from her kingdom.

Swapna was heartbroken and when she found out and when she found out that Queen Pari is bedridden, she immediately decided to act. She took her friends in this and attack the city. But nobody, knew that the girl would do such a thing. So, she went into hiding and I do not know where she is. She was traumatized by the child and went crazy as hell."

The room fell silent.

The demon continued, "I knew nothing where Swapna is or Brooklyn. But I know that they will come to get me. And also, the child. The child is a linked to something far more dangerous than even I can fathom. This is beyond my control."

Putri started to laugh strangely. "The might deity... huh. This is interesting." She whispered.

Doctor Stranger smiled. "Now I know what to do to you. Keep you alive till your bosses appear and get you. And then tortured you the way you did to Stella."

Chapter 24

August 4, X11

The Fathom Five decided to go to visit Erza's mother Irene to learn more about Indumathi. There they found out something very scary in the last remaining diaries of the Madhu City Library.

There they found something interesting in the book. There was a page in the diary talking about Putri by Anadhi – a traveler in the subcontinent of Russia. She was a gossiper who talks to other behind each other backs.

As she wrote: -

'In a land where demons rules, in India, there was a sorceress named Indumathi Amarendra. She feared that a Demon Slayer would come and destroy the entire demon races. So, she create a second heart inside a portion.

This Demon Slayer magic contains the mixture of demon power and human like being. If the person turns into a 100% demon three time, then that person will lose the ability to turn back into a human. There are different percentage of the demon blood exploring into the human being. Often people who have tried this Demon Slayer magic, died immediately after using them as it is dangerous.

But Indumathi knew the risk of the magic. So, she decided to use it when see gets the signal from her master.

One night around X02, as she stood in the tower, Gana enter the room calling for help.

"You made me a killer." Gana said in a dark voice. "But I will not listen to your command anymore."

"What are you talking about?" Indumathi still looking at the scenery.

"You were born for this. You were forged from this world from the darkness." She said with a smiled.

"Not anymore." Gana said as he bowed on Queen Parsi. Indumathi looked at the queen and bowed.

"Enough Indumathi. Your trick have failed you. For now, I need your help in saving my daughter. She is giving birth but there is serious complication." Queen Parsi said like an order.

Indumathi entered the birth chamber. There Rokhi was trying to push the child but failed. Indumathi gave her the Demon Slayer portion as a relaxing medication by accident.

As a result, the child was born with Demon Slayer magic. With the help of Captain Marvel, the child true identity was hidden.

Queen Parsi was so angry. "How could you do this? Now I have to kill my own granddaughter."

"Forgive me. It is a mistake. I was thinking it was a healing portion." Indumathi said crying.

The Queen in rage, raised her hand to strike. But Indumathi moved with the speed of light. "Your reign ends here" she said to Queen Parsi.

With a flick of her wrist, Indumathi called upon the ancient magic of earth, wind, and the stars. The ground started to tremble. The air crackled with energy as the demon sorceress screamed in fury. The girl disappear in thin air.

She was found by Gana who arrested her. A few days later, she was executed due to the concept of witch magic. Queen Parsi ruined her granddaughter's life with this secret.

This ruin relationship between Queen Parsi and the Nepal kingdom. As the result, Queen Parsi made the effort to hid it from her daughter. But her power hunger grew, and she forgot about it until the Madhu Attack.

Captain Marvel want Putri to hear this. "You are free now, my dear. But remember this: You are not a weapon, nor a demon. You are a person, with power to choose your own destiny."

- Anadhi

X03.'

Seeing this page the Fathom Five decided to go back to the headquarter to inform Takao and other about this.

On the way, they encounters several demons who was searching for two things. One was this page with the information. The second other is Putri Pari Nivenda – or as they called her – Vulture Rani.

Chapter 25

September 4, X11

One month after the shocking revels the court day was settled to be next year after the Christmas break. Till then they should find Swapna and others. Or else the Stigma will lose.

The Guardians had settled into the lush, bioluminescent jungle of Galaxy, their minds still reeling from the strange encounter with the Guardian of Galaxy. The ancient being's wisdom had left them shaken in its own way, but Gamora, as always, felt the weight of it differently.

She had learned something invaluable from the Guardian: healing wasn't about running from the darkness within—it was about facing it. And there was darkness inside her.

They'd set up camp near an ancient stone archway, remnants of an old temple that had once served as a place of learning and spiritual reflection

Gamora, however, was quiet. Too quiet.

"Hey," Peter said, lowering his voice so it wouldn't carry too far. "You alright?"

Gamora blinked, as though pulling herself out of a trance. She turned to him, her green skin catching the firelight in soft streaks. "I'm fine," she said, her voice steady but distant.

"No, seriously," Rocket continued, looking up from his tinkering with a piece of circuitry, "you've been all… quiet and brooding since we left the Guardian's temple. You're going to talk about it or what?"

"Right," Peter said, furrowing his brow. "So... what, like actual demons? Or are we talking about metaphorical, 'I feel guilty' demons?"

Gamora's gaze hardened, and she turned her eyes back to the jungle, watching the vines sway gently in the breeze. "Both. I've spent my entire life running from the demons inside me—fighting the choices I made, the things I've done. Every world I destroyed, every life I took—it's like a scar on my soul that never heals. It doesn't matter how far I run. They're always there, lurking in the dark corners of my mind."

There was a quiet pause around the campfire. Even Drax, who usually didn't understand subtlety or nuance, seemed to sense the weight of her words.

Rocket was the first to break the silence. "I get it. I really do. But you know, you're not alone in this. We've all got our demons. Me? I've got more than a few." He paused, glancing at Peter, then back to Gamora. "And look at us—we're still kicking. Still fighting. That's what matters, right?"

Gamora's lips quirked into a small, bittersweet smile. "You make it sound simple. But it's not. You don't understand. These... demons, they don't just go away. I've spent years pretending I don't care, pretending they don't hurt me. But the Guardian made me realize something: I've been afraid of them. Afraid of what I've done, and afraid of who I've become because of it."

Rocket nodded gravely, then shrugged. "I don't know if I'm goanna tell you that 'it'll get better' or 'you'll get over it,' because I don't think that's the case. But I do know this—you don't need to fight 'me alone. And maybe that's a start."

Gamora felt a pang of something deep in her chest—something she hadn't felt in a long time. It wasn't just guilt, or fear, or the constant ache of her past mistakes. It was... hope.

She glanced at the others: Peter, leaning back with his hands behind his head, his face more serious than usual; Drax, staring into the fire as if contemplating her words; Rocket, fiddling with his tech but watching her with unspoken understanding.

"I've spent too long thinking that my past is all that defines me," Gamora said softly, almost to herself. "I've hurt people, killed people—sacrificed who I could have been to the will of Thanos. And even after I left him, after I joined you all... there were still moments when the demons were louder than anything else. When I felt like I would never escape them."

Peter sat up, his usual levity replaced by an earnestness that surprised her. "Gamora, I get it. You don't need to explain yourself. We all carry stuff with us. You think I don't have my own demons? Trust me, I do. But I've learned something in all these years of screwing up and getting back up: You don't have to let them define you. Not the past. Not the mistakes. You've got a future. You've got us."

Gamora stared at him, her expression unreadable for a moment. Then, slowly, she nodded. "Maybe that's true. But there's still so much I need to... figure out. So much I need to heal from."

Rocket grinned, his sharp eyes softening for a brief moment. "Well, you're not alone in that. We've all got stuff to heal from. But as long as you're with us, you don't have to do it alone."

Gamora looked at each of them—her unlikely family. For the first time in a long while, she felt a sense of peace settle over her. The demons would always be there. But maybe, just maybe, she didn't have to face them in the dark anymore. Maybe, with the Guardians of the Galaxy by her side, she could learn to confront them—heal from them—and finally start living for herself.

And that was a start she could believe in.

"I don't know what the future holds," she said quietly, "but I'm willing to face it. With you. All of you."

Peter's grin returned, and Rocket gave her a thumb-up. Drax simply nodded, his usual intensity softened by the firelight. Together, they sat in silence, the weight of their shared understanding hanging in the air like the stars above them.

And for the first time in years, Gamora felt the smallest flicker of hope, rising from within the darkness.

Chapter 26

September 10, X11

Stella was bound to fear. She was craving for something else. She wanted the end of her entire life within her. However, she is being watched by a hawk by Stigma.

As soon as she saw Nebula, she felt that there is something going on. Nebula was like a semi-robot and human. She had dark black eyes will seems to be pull out and hands which are mechanical.

"Nebula is Gamora's sister. She will be here for some time." Takao said to Stella. Stella was watching Nebula her face in the darkness and wondered if her face is like this then how is she living like this.

September 11, X11

"Miss Nebula?" Stella asked. "Are you okay? I mean to say that you do not feels any sadness."

"You means how you are in your room all the time?" Nebula said.

"I… I do not want to upset my brother with the issue."

"Let me tell you a secret. When I was young, my adopt Father Thanos found me and tear down my body into a blue skin. That did not stop me from obeying my father. I enjoyed my life, until I saw how Gamora is enjoying. That is strange because Gamora had everything according to her way and I was the I stuck at these missions. But that does not matter because, in the end I left my father and going to fight against him." Nebula said to Stella and Putri.

"WOW." Putri said. "And people say that I have problem." Both of them looked at her with a pause.

"If you want to hide your feeling, it is fine. But remember that telling your feeling will help you." Nebula said.

"If I tell you, will you promise that you will tell everyone else?" Stella asked.

The Stigma were worried about the words what the demon said and what they got about the Anadathi's diary. They are worried that if the demons are after Putri, then how are they going to protect her.

"What if we tell everyone about this?" Peter asked.

"Then, it will be an all-out war." Stark declines.

"What if you can lock her in the room or house arrest her?" Thor asked.

"What if…", slowly the Guardian of Galaxy and Fathom Five started to asked questions and the Avenger turning them down.

"This is impossible to decided about what happen? How are we going to tell the lawyer about this." Max asked.

 "We need to pull out the names from the Demon." Doctor Strange said.

The discussion went for an hour. The Stigma could not decide what to do. They did not find any demons yet except the Blue Demons and cannot find any solid evidence on Gana and his relationship through the attack.

The clock is ticking fast. As Nebula, Putri, and Stella enter the room, they were still discussing about what should be done with Putri.

"What is the commotion about?" Nebula asked as the room began silence. The members of turned turn their head as they were surprised to see what was going on.

"Nothing is going on." Takao said.

"If so, then why are you talking about me?" Putri asked.

"We are wondering about your magic that's all." Kyojyu said sweating.

"You are a bad liar." Putri said.

"Well, Stella have something to tell you about." Nebula said.

Stella looked Takao in the eye. "Well, it started in the BBA World Championship in America…" Stella started to explain what happen before the attack and during the attack. She explain how The late Queen Parsi told her and Brooklyn and how he insult her.

Takao could feel two things - sad and angry. He went and hug Stella along with the other members of the G-Revolution. There was a lot of tears in the room. Stella, however, felt light-weighted telling this.

"And people said I do not have any emotion." Putri told Pickachu as she walked from the room to call her dad.

Chapter 27

September 15, X11

Uma Pathi needs an idea. He needs to make the throne next to him, his niece Manasa. But she was unpopular because of an incident with Indumathi. But for the law to make it happened, he needs to get rid of Putri. For that, he needs a plan. After carefully thinking, he got one. He tells his butler his idea.

Uma Pathi send a message to Shizehe'e about Putri. He wanted to her into his house. He wanted her for at least a week. Shizehe'e said no at first. He did not want any negative energy to Putri as already she is suffering for serious problems.

It is now almost two months, and now Uma decided to asked Stigma. They also said no. They were also worried about what he will do with Putri. But Putri decided to hear out him, after seeing the letter in the trash which was address to her. So, in secret she wrote a letter to Uma about meeting her in private.

A few days later, Uma sended a letter to Stigma saying that if they do not send the girl, then he will tell media what happened and even threated to send the army now that he is the rightful king.

This felt like a last straw. Uma Pathi was up to something but not anything good. They went to Shizehe'e, Tatsuya, Fala, and Dy about this and Lady Cameswari was furious.

Lady Cameswari summoned Uma Pathi on demand on the last request. Uma said as if he had no regards or anything as such.

"I now rule the Madhu Kingdom. The Late Queen Parsi handle this to me like a golden plate."

"After all what happen, don't you have a heart?" Lady Cameswari asked.

"To be honest I kept quiet for a long time but now it is too late. I want Manasa on the throne so that she can ruled. Since the kingdom is destroyed completely, I can rebuild it with whatever I wanted to."

"Why can you wait…" Uma Oathi cut Lady Cameswari before she could say anything else.

"I will wait for about five months. Then after that if you have the next person on the throne, then I will leave to the demon land or else I will return to throne as the rightful owner."

Putri, unaware of this situation, wrote about when should she meet Uma. Anjali Ghanthasala founded the letter that Uma send to Putri to meet her in his home. This letter also contain stuff like, "You are not good to be a queen…". Anjali then showed this to Takao.

In furious, Takao demanded explanation to Putri. But Putri refused to speak to him demanding that it was her letter, and she had the right to decide whether to go or not. Takao tried to explained Putri that Uma is trying to use her for his plan to get the throne, but she does not want to hear it.

"The letter was address to me." Putri yelled.

"It is not. I was addressed to Stigma. Because you are a child." Takao said.

"First of all, I am not a child. Second of all, he wanted me there for something special. If you are so jealous about it, then why can you go there instead."

"Oh no. After what he has done to our family. He shouldn't be asking any favors at this moment."

This led to a big fight. Putri telling Takao about how he can be a child. Takao relieves that Putri is insensitive about other people feeling especially the remarks on his friends.

Stark then called Shizehe'e to calm this fight. Takao was flustered from the fight while Putri took the phone and left the room.

"What should we do now?" Asked Captain America.

"We should ask Uma about this thing." Stark said. "Or else we do not know what he will do?"

"Should we spy?" Matis suggested.

"No spying" Quill said. "It will look like we are doing the same thing as them."

"You always takes his side." Putri yelled outside of the room. "You never take my side at all. It is always…"

After a pause, Starks decided to asked Uma's butler his plans. "It is the only way to understand what is going on."

Putri stormed in the room, handed the phone to Anjali, and left before saying to Takao, "This isn't over. "

Chapter 28

September 16, X11

On the outskirt of the destroyed Madhu City the Avenger were called to see something special. There was something about the situation didn't sit right with Captain America.

Iron Man hovered in his suit, scanning the surroundings with a flick of his wrist. Black Widow and Hawkeye were on the ground, Anjali and Thor stood tall, his eyes scanning the horizon for any signs of danger.

Captain America said with his voice grim, "But there's been a body found. And no one's talking about it. It might relate to the attack."

They approached the alley where the body was discovered. The police hadn't let anyone near the corpse yet, but when the Avenger approach, the officers stepped back.

Steve Rogers stepped forward, with his eyes narrowing at the figure lying in the shadows.

The body seems like a non-human figure. It was like a women covered with sunburn all over her skins. She was covering from the sun it seems so. Her face was pale. The expression seems like she knew what she was doing.

"Is she a demon?" Natasha asked, kneeling next to the body. There were no eyelids. "Seems like somebody attacks it or just passed away."

"Nothing except the look on the face." Clint muttered. "I think it is a dead end. You have seen something like this?"

"Something is off." Steve muttered, "This wasn't by accident. This might be on purpose."

The team fanned out to investigate further. Tony's voice crackled through their comms.

"Should we take a photo and then send to someone we know?"

Thor furrowed his brow. "I sense an unease in the air." He said, "It feels as though a storm have passed and left something behind?"

"A photo will be nice to send to the rest of the group." Anjali said.

"Who is this person" Natasha asked. "Is she related to the attack in some way or the other."

The tension was palpable. Tony broke the silence said. "I am running a facial recognition. She looks like one of Putri drawing that she drew about the attack. I found the traces." He paused sounding unsettled. "This woman is one of the demons that attack the Madhu. In fact, she is the main person. The leader I suppose. Gana and her are related somehow. Her name is Swapna, a demon that works under… Oh my god."

"Great now what?" Clint asked. "A mystery wrapped in an enigma, served with a side of the evil."

"We need to go back now." Iron Man said.

In the shadows there is something that is seeing everything. It started to rustle, and the team notices it.

Tony's voice crackled again, this time a little more urgent. "Uh, guys? I just picked up something on the outer perimeter. It is faint, but definitely… something watching us. Someone's here."

The team instinctively reached for their weapons, scanning the area.

But just as quickly as it had appeared, the feeling of being watched vanished.

"Captain." Anjali said, "I think this was meant for us."

The Avenger returned to Stigma base. They showed the dead photos of Swapna to the blue demon.

"This is impossible." The Blue skin demon said.

"Swapna body was found to be destroyed today. Do you any reasons why." Doctor Stranger asked the demon.

"It is the end. Now that Swapna fail her lifelong mission. He will come. Swapna's father. Before that Brooklyn will come and then destroy everything that is there." The blue demon told scared.

"First of all, who is Vulture Rani?" Doctor Strange asked.

The blue demon laughed and then said.

"The one who destroyer your precious city. – Putri Pari Nivenda"

Chapter 29

September 17, X11

After the shocking infer, the Stigma was sent to a village near by where there was a demon attack. It was a dark village in Canada. After the attack, many Native America's village were packed with their relative. But not this one as many move out of the village. The reasons is unknown.

It is a dark sight. Putri and Stella were there along with their Pokémon. They were there to identify anything as such. The city destruction was not far from here. And it was seen as an evil place. The police tape was everywhere.

There were three demons following them, but none of them was none other than Garfield. Garfield had one eye remaining after Putri's slaughter the other. He was there for bring the girl alive or dead, to the empress of demon.

Garfield attack Stigma with two other demons. The Stigma defended them. One of the demons had orange eye and other had pink eye. They look like the human female figure, which their hands like claws.

Since, it was dark, it was difficult to cut the demons into parts. The Stigma do not have any idea on how to defeat the demons except the sun – in with the can turn into ashes. Even fire cannot work on them.

As Putri and Stella wandered deeper, they found Garfield. Garfield wanted to know how they are doing and their siblings to which Putri replied, "As if you care."

"By the way, I heard you gave me a cool nickname. It is great by the way." Stella looked at her in a omg manner.

"I did not give it. Our empress of demon – Aalia gave it. You should be thanking her." Garfield whispered. "I am here to kill you and then take the other one to Master Brooklyn not to chit chat."

"And what about the other?" Putri asked not a scare in her voice.

"They will be killed by my assistant." Garfield suddenly a change in the air.

He immediately attack Stella. She flew on the floor. She started to struggle. Her trauma was coming back. She started to fear the words and man itself.

Putri bones started to crack. She started to move her joints in a different manner. Her height increases a bit. It was like a horror scene.

Garfield freaked out. He scream loud enough that The Stigma hear it. He play dead. Putri then looked at Stella. Her eyes had dark veins near them. Is it as if she have not sleep for some days, her eye looked tired and scary. Her lip turned dark like her skin.

After an eye-to-eye contact, Putri flew into the air. Garfield looked at Stella. "At least, let me take you." He grabbed Stella's arm. She screamed as she was dragged out of the cave. Suddenly Takao grab Garfield arm.

"What are you doing to my sister." His grip was tight that Garfield released Stella and tried to escape.

"Anna" Stella said.

"Stella!" Kyojyu called. "Are you okay?"

"No." Stella said. "I feels scared." She trembled.

The sun will rise in an hour. But Putri spared no interest in it. She killed the two female demon in an instant. To control her, people tried to hug her. Gajeel tried to do that, but his arms was scatter with her claws. She was screaming from her voice.

As she escape from the arms, Wanda appears and started to use her magic on her. She was able slow Putri. Putri could not take it any longer. She started to vomited blood from her ears, mouth, and nose, and then passed out.

Garfield tried to escape. Luckily, Doctor Strange freeze the way he did for the blue demon. Putri was taken to the hospital and went she opened her eyes she was fine to go home after two hours.

Garfield woke up near the blue demon.

"What going on here?" He asked.

"Welcome to death friend." The Blue demon said.

Chapter 30

Stella was frozen upon hearing that name. She was not able to eat or sleep. She was up all night starting at the door. On top of that Garfield assaulting her make it so much worse. She kept having nightmare about this. She started to feel no life in her body. Takao was stress about the situation. He decided to tell his father about it.

September 18, X11

The Stigma were greeted by Shizehe'e, Tatsuya, Fala, and Dy and the other Seas. They were informed about Garfield.

"I can question the demon if you want to." Doctor Strange said.

"There is no need for that. As the demons were saying and with some evidence, they might be telling the truth. There is no way that Brooklyn the demon will appear out of nowhere." Tatsuya said.

"So, you are saying to start the case with mere words from the child?" Tony Stark said.

"Yes." Fala said. "But there is one more person that you should asked before moving forward."

September 19, X11

The next morning, Stella find herself in Tokyo with her dad came to visit her. She did not feel well to say hi to him. She went to the shower with her clothes on and saw a blade next to her.

Kai, Stark, Peter, Rocket and Rei were sitting on the balcony when Uma Pathi and his 4 men were sitting.

"So, Uma." Stark asked. "Should we start our own work?"

"What do you want now?" Uma Pathi asked.

"I need to show a face." The scroll contain a picture of Garfield. When Uma saw that picture, he freezes. His expression made Stark to say, "What is wrong? Know this person?"

 Uma Pathi knew Garfield and Brooklyn – way before they turned into demons. But that was about 14 years ago. He eyes widened. "Where did you find him?" He asked the gang.

"You will answer in the cell. Strange!" Stark said.

"Mr. Stark. Doctor Strange isn't here." Rei said.

"Well, that was quick." Peter answer.

Suddenly Stark's intern came into the room. "Mr. Stark. Quickly something happen. Young Stella is in bed."

Kai's eyes widened. "Why?"

"According to Sir Tatsuya, she cut herself in the shower."

The room fell silence for a while. Kai and Rei left the room immediately along with Rocket.

"You wanted to know how I knew Garfield? It was during the war, that I met those kids. I do not know how they turn into demons. But I would like to question them myself." Uma Pathi told Stark into eye to eye. "Do whatever you want." Rocket told and all three left.

Stella wake up to find, Tatsuya, Ryu, and Takao in her room. She was laying on the bed. Her right hand was covered with bandage.

"Dad." She woke up.

"Stella, are you already?" Tatsuya asked.

"No. Dad I am not fine." Stella started to cry. "I am tried to hear that word all the time. I do not feel like Beyblading at all. I feels like I let Sagarators and Anna down."

"Stella. You did not let me down." Takao said. "It is okay if you want to stop Beyblade but promise me that you would never end your life like that."

"I promise." Stella said in a cold voice.

Tatsuya enter the room where the other Stigma members is waiting for results.

"Stella is fine, but you cannot see her. Apparently taking her out to these missions is stressing her out. Why would I take her to my home for some time – or until you have finished this work?" Tatsuya gripped himself and spoke.

Before anyone could speak, a mail arrives from Daichi calling from help to the G-Revolution.
