Catacombs

Deep in the catacombs, Zero, Esmerana and Nao steps through the chambers, their eyes widens in wonder at the sight of a large statue.

" What is this place?" Zero questions out. As the trio closes in onto the statue, Nao points out," It's Noa, the legendary giant."" Noa?" Zero repeats, the trio staring at the red emblem on a large structure.

" That means..." Esmerana exclaims," That is the Shield of Baradhi?"" That's right. We should be able to put the fragment in it somewhere." Nao answers, stepping forward to take a closer look on the emblem.

As he touches it, Nao exclaims," Here it is." He pulls the fragment off his neck, and slips it right into the small little opening in the middle.

Upon inserting the fragment, a bright light flashes out, causing Nao to step back." Alright, it should activate by now."

However, to their horror, a loud crack booms across the catacombs and within seconds, the structure dissolves into dust.

Both Zero and Esmerana stood back, paralyzed in horror as Nao steps forward, his eyes filled with disbelief," It can't be...why?! Why?! The stone shield should be shining! That's what father said!"

Zero steps towards Nao, listening as Nao continues to question," Is father wrong? Was he?!"" Nao..." Zero places a hand on Nao's arm, lowering himself to face the boy as he says," You should believe in your father."

" There must be a reason for this." Esmerana states.

Nao, Zero and Esmerana stares up at the statue of Nao, only for a soft flashing sound echoing through the catacombs.

" What was that?" Nao asks.

Space

Stomping on top of a Legionoid ship, a large kaiju with a star-like crest on his back places a hand on his chest, loudly declaring out," I am...the steel general Iaron!"

Iaron thrusts his arm out, a red sonic wave emitting from his gills as he shouts," Iaron sonic!"

WREEEE!!!

" AARRGHHHH!!!" Mirror Knight grunts out in agony, the sheer shrilling sound of the attack pushing him back.

As the attack stalls Mirror Knight, the Legionoid fleet began taking advantage of the Knight of Mirror's predicament, opening fire at the Second Dimension.

Catacombs

Loud crashing and rumbling shook the entire chambers, causing the statue of Nao to crack under the impact.

Zero steps forward, looking up just as the ceiling began to crack under the pressure.

At that exact moment, the ground underneath him began to split, breaking apart.

But to Zero's horror, he found himself standing at one end, staring right at Nao and Esmerana kneeling on the otherside.

" Nao! Esmerana!" Zero desperately calls out.

" Run!" Nao calls back.

Realizing that he has no other options, Zero struck out his hand, bright light shining around the synchronizer as he prepares to transform.

Esmerana however, desperately pleads," No! Zero! Don't use it!"

Realization struck him as Zero took the Zero Eye, looking up right as a large pillar began crumbling, falling straight towards Esmerana and Nao.

" AAAHHHHH!!!" Both Nao and Esmerana crouches down, cowering as the stone pillar closes in,

Instead of transforming, Zero twists the Zero eye, switching it into a makeshift pistol before opening fire at the falling rumble, saving both Esmerana and Nao.

However, right at that moment, a large stone crashes right on top of Zero's arm, causing him to cry out in pain, sending the Zero Eye tumbling down the crevice.

Space

As Iaron continues his attack, the Kaiju declares out in malicious delight," May everything beautiful be destroyed! Disappear!"

Iaron then presses on his attack, causing the crack on the second dimension to spread.

Realizing that his friends and the people of the Second Dimension are in danger, Mirror Knight rushes downwards, pushing through Iaron's attack.

Iaron's sick evil laughter echoes throughout the void of space as the surface of the Second Dimension shatters into an explosion of fragments.

" AAAAHHHHHHH!!!" Zero's screams fills the void as he tumbles down, falling straight into a dark portal.

Soon

Zero groans out, his head feeling heavy and his eyes barely open.

As he feels the ground below him, Zero's eyes snaps open and he looks up. Finding himself trapped in a small dome-shaped prison.

Zero stood up, looking around to get a good look of the unfamiliar place he is in." Where am I?" Zero questions out.

Just as he surveys his surroundings, Zero felt a cold chill run down his spine as he found himself held in a small container within a large spacious bridge. But what caught his attention is the large space structure looming over the Planet Esmeralda.

" Nao...Esmerana..." Zero grits his teeth, feeling his anger seeth only to hear a sinister but familiar voice saying," So we meet again."

Horrified, Zero looks up, finding himself staring at a familiar red and black figure seated on a throne.

After all this time, Zero finds himself facing his nemesis, Ultraman Belial once again!

Zero grits his teeth, glaring up as Ultraman Belial said to him scornfully," You have my praise for defeating my Darclopses. That scar you gave me..." Ultraman Belial growls, tilting his head to show Zero the scar on his left side," It still hurts. You're the one who did this to me!"

" Belial!" Zero shouts, glaring intendly at his ginormous enemy, not even a least bit intimidated at the size differences between them." Fight me!"

However, Zero's words only causes Ultraman Belial to break out in a fit of malicious laughter," Ah ha ha ha ha ha! What are you talking about? You think a pathetic little worm like you can fight me? You don't have any energy left in you."

Ultraman Belial held up his hand, questioning Zero," Is this what you are looking for?" Zero widens his eyes, staring at the Zero Eye floating right above his enemy's fingertips.

Ultraman Belial then said to him," Why don't you just stay and watch from there?"" What are you planning to do?!" Zero questions him.

Outside

Massive streams of green energy fires out of the ship's turrets, striking onto a fleet of shuttles before sending them flying into space.

Bridge

Ultraman Belial watches the departing fleet from the monitors, explaining his plan to Zero," This will be my one millionth attack. Soon, I shall crush the Land of Light!"

" Stop it you bastard!" Zero screams out angrily, only for Ultraman Belial to cackle out," I just sent them a greeting."

Land of Light

Back in the Land of Light, a dark red emblem shone over the entire planet, immediately attracting the attention of every Ultra being below.

Concerns fills the air as Father of Ultra exclaims out," It's Belial's Ultra Sign!"" Yes." Ultraman 80 nods," The mysterious army was sent by Belial himself."" So he's alive?!" Jack exclaims." So...Zero is..." Yullian looks up, her face fills up with concern.

Bridge

" My father is there." Zero states," My friends are there too. They won't lose to your army!"

Ultraman Belial points a finger at him, questioning him," Don't you know how many Darclops units I have created? This is going to be fun!"

Zero looks out, his eyes widens in terror at the sheer numbers of Darclops flying outside of the ship. As the Darclopes were sent to the Land of Light, Ultraman Belial cackles," No matter how many Ultra warriors are there, they can never defeat this many Darclopses."

Land of Light

Despite doubts and hopelessness filling up among the Ultra pantheon, Ultraseven said to the rest optimistically," I believe in him. He will not be defeated."

Zoffy agrees," But first, we must defend this universe."

The Ultra Warriors nods in acknowledgement before taking off into the depths of space, engaging the Darclopses in battle.

Bridge

" Stop!" Zero screams out in both horror and anger, watching helplessly at the carnage broadcasted on the monitors.

Ultraman Belial faces the screen, saying to the Ultra warriors defending the planet," In the wake of your demise, I shall sing you a song as your deaths draws near."

Music began playing around the entire bridge, angering Zero even further as Ultraman Belial began singing out.

" I've never fit into any category,

Was even deemed an outcast,

Since I tried to steal the Plasma Spark,

All the other Ultras called me a traitor

It's exactly the same as they say,

Belial, that's enough!

You'll have to get past us!

You should never have come back!

So is that how they wanna treat me?

They playing games with me?

Telling me I don't belong,

Then you throw me out, call me words that I'm not,

Painting me as Faust

They will never know my heart

And I always know it's their fault,

Living in a world full in Ken's clutch,

They don't get out very much,

Livin' in a universe,

Filled with facades and chaotic behavior,

So I fuse with Rayblood,

And come back and they just run

Belial,

What would happen if I destroy it all?

Would they say bye to their families

Or would they pray to their false Gods?

Belial,

Once it all went up in flames one day,

Would they give their mama a hug

Before it all burns away

There's death. I,

Wish the best for them

And you think,

I ignore you too but

Really, I'm just trying to live my own life

Once the Land of Light is down, and so are you.

Burning, inside

Cause nothing I do with Ken always comes out right,

He's such a big blight,

If' I'm honest if you, he's not very bright

They're always bad at public speaking,

So if they monologue, we should hear them out

They talk too much!

I personally believe that,

Everyone is fully capable

By fusing themselves with darkness,

All of that goodness,

All of that screwing around with people they don't really know

Sucking up to King and fawn over Mary,

And when something evil is plenty

They side with Ken and it all goes awry

Belial,

What would happen if I destroy it all?

Would they say bye to their families

Or would they pray to their false Gods?

Belial,

Once it all went up in flames one day,

Would they give their mama a hug

Before it all burns away

There's death. I,

Wish the best for them

And you think,

I ignore you too but

Really, I'm just trying to live my own life

Once the Land of Light is down, and so are you.

I'm not Father of Ultra,

I'm not Mother of Ultra,

I'm not that Ultraman King,

And it's sinful

They kick me out of the Land of Light,

Put me in a desperate plight,

So death to all who had hurt and betrayed me!

I'm not Father of Ultra,

I'm not Mother of Ultra,

I'm not that Ultraman King,

And it's sinful

Would love to hear those anguish cries,

Coming from you Zero,

And all those so-called heroes,

Belial,

What would happen if I destroy it all?

Would they say bye to their families

Or would they pray to their false Gods?

Belial,

Once it all went up in flames one day,

Would they give their mama a hug

Before it all burns away

There's death. I,

Wish the best for them

And you think,

I ignore you too but

Really, I'm just trying to live my own life

Once the Land of Light is down, and so are you."

Right as he finished singing, Ultraman Belial looms over the captive Zero, saying to him in disdain," There is nothing left you can do. Taste the fear of dispair. Ah ha ha ha ha!"

" Damn you Belial!" Zero curses out.

" Emperor Kaiser Belial." Darkgone said, immediately attracting Ultraman Belial's attention.

" Look." Ultraman Belial looks at the screen, watching as a bird-like ship swoops gracefully through the mass carnage around it.

The ship flies across the battlefield, opening fire at the oncoming Legionoid ships surrounding it.

Recognizing the ship, Zero exclaims out," It's Jean-Bird! Everyone is alright!"

" They are interfering with our invading troops." Darkgone explains to Ultraman Belial." Shoot them down." Ultraman Belial orders.

Realizing the danger his friends are in, Zero urges to them from his prison," Run! Get out of here! You haven't found the Shield of Baradhi yet!"

" Ran! Can you hear me?!" Zero's eyes widens, recognizing the voice. It's Nao, his host's younger brother.

Out in the depths of the battlefield, Zero could hear Nao's voice calling out to him," We won't let Belial have his way! We're coming to save you!"" Zero!" This time, Zero could hear the voice of Emerana calling to him," Just wait, we're coming to your rescue!"

" Nao...Emerana..." Zero whispers out. Grateful and emotionally touched by their bravery, Zero felt his eyes glisters with tears just as Run calls out," We're going to rescue you!"" We'll save you!" Another voice, this time from Emerana calls out.

A single teardrop drips down from his cheek, falling straight onto the floor and at that moment a bright light flashes from below, attracting Ultraman Belial's attention.

At that moment, a large slender shape moves out of the light, jumping up into the air.

At the same time, Jean-Bird swoops down before slamming through the ship's glass window, shocking both Darkgone and Ultraman Belial.

Mirror Knight somersaults in the air before landing knee first onto the floor.

The Knight of Mirror slowly opens up his palm, revealing Zero safe in his hand.

" Mirror Knight!" Zero calls out.

" We looked everywhere for you." Mirror Knight explains to him." Run!"" Zero!" Delighted to hear the voice of his allies, Zero happily shouts," Nao! Emerana!"

Flying across the air, Jean-Bird fires a blast of laser right into Ultraman Belial's hand, the impact causing him to recoil his hand in pain.

The single motion of agony was all it took for Ultraman Belial to release his grip of the Zero Eye, sending it flying up into the air.

Zero turns to face Mirror Knight, saying to him," Throw me Mirror Knight!" Mirror Knight nods and he swings his arm out, throwing Zero up towards the Zero Eye.

Just as the Zero Eye is spinning, Zero thrusts his hand out, grabbing onto the transformation device before pulling it close to his face, pressing onto it's trigger.

A bright light flashes in the air as Run's body began shifting, transforming him back into Ultraman Zero!

Now back in his true body, Ultraman Zero rises up, placing his arms in an "L" shape before launching a powerful blast of energy across the command centre.

Computers and engines went off in explosions of sparks and debris as Ultraman Zero began wrecking havoc on Ultraman Belial's ship.

Darkgone jumps up, narrowingly dodging Ultraman Zero's attack.

" Emperor!" Realizing that his superior is in danger, Iaron dashes forward, using his iron cast body to shield Ultraman Belial from the attack.

Angered, both Ultraman Belial and Iaron looks up, glaring right at Ultraman Zero.

Ultraman Zero stood defiantly among the mess of flames and debris, staring back at his foe before declaring out loudly," I will never forgive you!"

Ultraman Belial raises up his claw, declaring out loudly," I'll send you right to hell!"
