On New Thundera, live is about as normal as it will ever get. It is only just a few weeks since the story of the broken seal was rampant throughout the planet. After the story ended, two mysteries were left unresolved... what really happened to Krysa? Most of all, what happened to Nocti after she cut off her mother's tail with the Spear of White?

Nocti kept the Spear of White with her after the incident, as a momento of her brave deeds. At that same night, she also thinks of what is going through her mind. She could not understand how her tranformation take place. She had no idea of what the changes going on in her body. Even with these troubled thoughts in her mind, she falls asleep.

"help me"

Nocti saw herself in total darkness. She could faintly her someone calling for help, but she does not know who, or where the sound is coming from. "Where are you? Who are you?" Nocti shouted.

"please, help me"

Nocti could still hear the faint cries for help. "What's going on? What am I going through?" Nocti shouted. After screaming, the lights come back on and before her feet is the image of her aunt, Krysa. "Aunt Krysa?" Nocti said in confusion. "It is I... your aunt, Krysa." Krysa spoke. "Aunt Krysa, where are you now?" Nocti said.

"I am in an alternate dimension." Krysa said. "When I and Dark Krysa fought at the Angeleese Library, we fused into one body once again. The shock threw us as one into another dimension... the one where your friend Devilman comes from." Nocti was shocked. "Devilman? He's with you?" Nocti said. "I have found Devilman, but he's in dire straits right now. In the war of the demons he has been fighting in this world, he is losing. The one called Antichrist has imprisoned him and is putting him through numerous torture sessions and demon purging techniques. The one called Antichrist is trying to purge the demon within Devilman, so he would be rendered weak and unable to fight the wars. If his demon is purged, he shall be weak for the rest of his life." Krysa said. "I don't have much time left. You must ask Panthro to make you a trans-dimensional device. If you don't get here soon, Devilman will surely perish, and I shall never be back home again." Krysa's image was fading fast. "Aunt Krysa, wait!" Nocti shouted. Krysa said, "Find Panthro. Help us. Save Devilman." before she completely faded away.

The morning after, Nocti talked to her parents and her friends about her night vision. "That is what happened." Nocti said. "Aunt Krysa is alive and well in another dimension! I need to go the Devilman's dimension, rescue my aunt and Devilman himself!" Lion-O was a little skeptical. "How can you be so sure? It could be a mind trap set by Mumm-Ra." Lion-O said. Nocti then replied by saying, "She mentioned the Angeleese Library and her fusion with Dark Krysa." Hystalin was shocked. "She has to be alive! Muhin would know nothing about Krysa's fusion!" Hystalin shouted.

"Panthro? Hypnos? See if you an prepare a trans-dimensional device for Nocti." Panthro walked up. "I still have the blueprints I made when I made Devilman a trans-dimensional device. Hypnos and I will get right on it." Panthro said. "Good. While you're at it, see if you can make one for me & my wife. We'd like to help out as well." Nocti looked to her parents. "Dad, you'd do this for me?" Nocti said. "Of course. I'm always willing to help my family." Lion-O said. Hystalin agreed. With a tear in her eye, Nocti said, "Thank you." Panthro & Hypnos rushed to the lab, so they could get right to work.

In the lab, Panthro & Hypnos were working diligently on making trans-dimensional devices for Nocti, Lion-O & Hystalin. "Hypnos, do we have any more Thundrillium Extract?" Hypnos found the extract. "We do, but there is only six vials left of it." Hypnos said. "Only six? Damn. I'll have to ask the others to get more Thundrillium." Panthro said. "At least we have some for the devices. Bring them to me." Hypnos brought the vials of Thundrillium Extract to Panthro. The two continue to work on their devices. By nightfall, three trans-dimensional devices were completed.

The morning after, Panthro & Hypnos presented the Lord & Lady of the Thundercats with three trans-dimensional devices. "Here they are. With these mechanisms, you, Hystalin & Nocti will easily be able to reach Devilman's dimension. Lion-O thanked his friend. "One more thing... use them sparingly. They are fueled by Thundrillium Extract. I've included a spare battery, but it both batteries are dead, you'll be stuck in the other dimension forever." Lion-O thanked his friend for his warning.

Later that day, Nocti, Hystalin & Lion-O (each with one of Panthro's trans-dimensional in their hands) was outside the Cats' Lair with the rest of the Thundercats with them. Lion-O spoke to his friends and family members.

"Fellow ThunderCats and loving relatives," Lion-O said, "myself, my daughter Nocti, and my wife must go on a mission to a friend's dimension, for the Code of Thundera does not allow the abandonment of an ally or a friend, no matter what. Therefore, the three of us will be on a mission to Devilman's dimension. During this time, we will be in a weakened state. The rest of you must guard Cats' Lair and defend all of New Thundera by yourselves for the time being. Good luck in defending all of New Thundera during our temporary absence."

After Lion-O's speech, everyone shouted with their clenched fists in the air shouting, "Thundercats, HOOOOO!!!!!!" Lion-O, Hystalin & Nocti turned on their trans-dimensional devices. Immediately, the three were teleported away to Devilman's dimension. The rest of the ThunderCats waved good-bye as they left.

Moments later, the three arrived in an empty corner in another dimension. The place was littered with blood. Nocti looked to the carnage and recognized some of the body parts. Hystalin found an amputated arm wearing a white armlet that is awash with blood. "Could this be..." Hystalin whispered. "Is this... what's left of Krysa?"

Lion-O looked to one side, and sees what is left of Krysa's disemboweled carcass several feet away. "Honey, don't look." Lion-O said. "Aunt Krysa is dead." Nocti said. "I was too late to save her." Nocti began to cry. Lion-O and Hystalin came to Nocti's side. "Honey, you did what you could." Hystalin said to her daughter. "I promise you, whoever did this will surely pay for this senseless and gruesome murder."

As the three look up, they see a monstrous demon with green scaly skin, many protruding horns, and bloodshot eyes with a trickle of blood running down its mouth. "This... this monster killed Aunt Krysa!" Nocti shouted as she was engulfed in anger. As her anger increased, her dark gray hair slowly turned light yellow, and her royal blue eyes flickered to a shade of lime green. A light blue aura appeared around her as well. "You shall die for murdering my aunt you monster!" Nocti rushed to the monster's side, so she can beat it as senseless as it did its victim.

Lion-O and Hystalin stood in awe as their daughter transformed and attacked the murderous beast without mercy. "My daughter dons the golden fleece as well." Hystalin said quietly. "Hyst, what was that?" Lion-O asked. "Honey, our daughter is now a super-saiyin." Hystalin said. "Because she is one-fourth saiyin, she can don the golden fleece." Lion-O asked his wife about this, but she responded by saying, "It's well documented in the Angeleese Library."

After Nocti successfully vanquished the monster, she returned to her parents' side. "Nocti, you look different." Lion-O said. "Yeah, I feel so unusual. What is this I'm feeling right now?" Nocti asked. "Honey, you don the golden fleece. You've become a Super-Saiyin." Hystalin said to her daughter. "Really? If that is so, how come you haven't reached that status yet?" Nocti asked. Hystalin did not know, but she does faintly remember a time when it did happen although she was not sure if it was real or not.

Just then, they see to the west, a large skyscraper with dark ominous clouds peering at the top. Several bolts of lightning hit the area. "What's in there?" Lion-O said. "It does not look promising, I can tell you that." Hystalin snapped. Just then, Nocti used her magical abilities to cast an "Analyze" spell, so she can probe into the monolith without entering it first.

In her "Analyze" spell, she sees many demons in various sizes, strengths, and physical differences. During her vision, she sees the image of a smaller demon chained to a table and unable to move. Someone tortures the monster with various methods as well. The one who was restrained on the table was Devilman. "Devilman is inside that monolith!" Nocti shouted. "We have to get inside if we are to rescue our friend!" Lion-O & Hystalin nodded in agreement, and the three entered the building without haste.

Lion-O, Hystalin and Nocti were deep inside the monolith. "Where do we start looking?" Hystalin said. "I think we have to go to the top. That is where I believe I saw Devilman." Nocti said. As the three progressed their way to the top, they were attacked by an array of demons. Lion-O, armed with the Sword of Omens, emitted several bolts of lightning to several of the demons. Hystalin, with the Magic Sword of Fire in hand, burned several other demons to cinders and ash. Nocti, with the Spear of White in her hands, finished off the rest with the enchanted spear. When the three defeated the army of demons, they continued their trek to the summit.

At the summit, Antichrist was watching the events unfolding in his crystal orb. "How about that Devilman? Your friends from the other dimension has come here to save your half-demon ass! How convenient!" Antichrist sneered. "I knew they'd come. It's wonderful that Krysa send her message before the end. Finally, Antichrist, they shall surely put an end to your reign of terror!" Devilman shouted. Antichrist glanced at Devilman. "Let them come! I'll kill them just like I did to your friend, Krysa!" Antichrist shouted back.

As the three reached to the fifteenth floor, Lion-O started breathing heavily. "Lion-O, what's wrong?" Hystalin asked her husband. "I'm just a little out of breath, that's all." Nocti was a little concerned about her father, but she thought it was nothing too much to be concerned about. "Honey, we could teleport to the top with my magic. Do you want us to do so?" Hystalin asked. Lion-O nodded in agreement. The three joined hands, and Hystalin and Nocti prepared the magic spell. After a minute in preparation, the spell was complete, and the group shot to the top of the skyscraper with Hystalin and Nocti's magic.

At the summit, Antichirst looks in his crystal orbs once again. "Hmmm... They're arriving faster than I expected." Antichrist said to himself. "I might as well roll out the welcome mat for those three." Devilman, who was looking a what is going on, was unsure of what Antichrist is thinking of, but he feels a bit of worry in what Antichrist might be planning.

As Lion-O, Hystalin & Nocti reached two floors away to the summit, they were ambushed by several more demons. Nocti had to split away and attack the monsters with the Spear of White. She used her enchanted weapon to slay about seven of the twelve demons that blocked Nocti's family's path. Lion-O & Hystalin also stopped, they could help their daughter. Hystalin used her Magic Sword of Fire on four of the remaining demons, burning them to ashes. Only one demon remained.

Lion-O readied the Sword of Omens for attack. He emitted several large bursts of lightning at the last demon, but achieved little success. He started breathing heavily once again felt a slight pain in his chest. Lion-O was weakened. The last remaining demon was about to strike, but it stopped when it felt a sharp pain in its side. Nocti used the Spear of White to stab the demon in its side. The demon roared in pain. Lion-O used his sword once again, and he easily defeated the demon.

Nocti & Hystalin ran to Lion-O side. Lion-O was still breathing heavily, and his pain in his chest did not go away. "Father, what's wrong?" Nocti asked her father. "I don't know," Lion-O said, "but I don't feel so good." Nocti said to her father, "Father, we have to get to the summit if we are to save our friend. We're only a couple of floors away." Lion-O slowly got up, despite his current situation. "If I am to save a friend, even if it means trading my life in the process, I shall do it." Lion-O proudly said. The three returned to their trip to the summit, which was not to far from being finished.

Several more minutes has passed. Lion-O, Hystalin & Nocti finally made their way to the summit, but Lion-O was feeling ill. Nocti & Hystalin were concerned, but Lion-O still continued to insist that it is nothing to worry about. the three walked to a large door, guarded by two cerberuses. As the three approached the door, the pair of cerberuses growled fiercely. Lion-O, Hystalin & Nocti readied for combat.

One of the cerberuses jumped on Lion-O. Hystalin tried plunging her enchanted blade in the cerberus's hide. Surprisingly, it did nothing to the three-headed dog. "This beast must be born from fire." Hystalin thought to herself. "Ice magic must be used on these vile creatures. Nocti was immediate to respond. She flew to the top and created a strong blizzard spell. As the cold air intensified, the cerberuses started to shiver and turned to solid ice. Lion-O pushed the iced cerberus on top of him to the other iced cerberus, and the two shattered as if they were made of glass.

Hystalin and Nocti turned to Lion-O. "Honey, how do you feel?" Hystalin said. "I... I feel dizzy." Lion-O said. Nocti then noticed a small cut on Lion-O's neck. "Mother, look!" Nocti shouted. Hystalin noticed the small cut on Lion-O's neck as well. "I don't like this one bit." Hystalin said to herself.

The group of three opened the door and entered. The room was pitch black. As they walked in, the door slammed shut, and no one could get out. Lion-O, Hystalin & Nocti were trapped. "I thought you said Devilman was at the summit!" Lion-O shouted. "I did! I saw I it through the "Analyze" vision!" Nocti quickly snapped back.

Suddenly, the heard someone laughing. A single ray of light from the ceiling struck down to the floor to where Lion-O, Hystalin & Nocti stood. From the darkness, a single figure spoke. "You three must be the ones called Lion-O, Hystalin, and Nocti, eh?" the man said. "I've heard so much about you from your friend, Devilman. You've come to rescue your friend? You'll have to kill me first... ANTICHRIST!!!"

Lion-O, Hystalin & Nocti readied their weapons for battle, as did Antichrist. Lion-O was about to strike until Antichrist threw a dark energy blast at the Lord of the ThunderCats. Lion-O was consumed in its dark energy. Hystalin & Nocti were worried. Lion-O looked to his wife and daughter with an evil grin. The Sword of Omens flew out of Lion-O's hand and dug itself to the floor. "What have you done to my father?" Nocti shouted out. Antichrist slowly said, "Wait and see."

Hystalin & Nocti watched in horror as Lion-O slowly transformed from the proud, red-haired Lord of the ThunderCats to a large, hulking, vicious were-lion. "FATHER!" Nocti shouted. "What have you done to my husband?" Hystalin shouted in anger and disbelief. "Simple! I've possessed your friend. His former consciousness has now been taken over by the demon I implanted in him. You could say that that that you know and love is now dead inside, and only a demonic shell remains." Nocti was in shock. "No! Not my father!" Nocti shouted in anger. "Oh yes... your father." Antichrist said sarcastically. Now, you two will die by the one you love. I shall enjoy the slaughter!" Antichrist said quietly.

The were-lion ran to Hystalin & Nocti with its claws ready. It struck its sharp claws to the pair, but Hystalin & Nocti jumped out of the way just in time. "Father, stop doing this! We're your family! I'm your daughter, Nocti! Can you hear me?" Nocti said as she flew to the air. "I told you, he cannot hear your pleas for help." Antichrist retorted. "The man inside is dead." Nocti refused to believe Antichrist's words, and she was reluctant to fight his father. Hystalin, on the other hand, felt she had no choice but to attack the one she loves. She threw a fire spell at the were-lion, but it was almost useless. The were-lion recovered quickly and grabbed Hystalin with its bare claws. Hystalin struggled, but she could not break free from the beast's grip.

"Lion-O stop this! It's your loving wife, Hystalin! I love you! Please stop this lunacy!" Hystalin shouted, but her words were all in vain. The were-lion tried to constrict Hystalin, and Hystalin about ready to pass out. Nocti, watching this horrific event unfold, grew righteously angry. She turned Super-Saiyin, readied the Spear of White, and flew to the beast. With tears in her eyes, Nocti plunged the Spear of White in the were-lion's chest; in effect, Hystalin was freed from the beast's clutches.

The were-lion fell to the ground with a loud thump. Later, the beast transformed back to Lion-O's original form. Lion-O had a glassy look in his eyes. "Hystalin... Nocti... come to me..." Lion-O said weakly. Hystalin & Nocti quickly rushed to Lion-O's side. "Father, I'm sorry... I... I..." Nocti said hastily. "Nocti, you did what you had to do. I'm bear no malice for what you did; in fact, I'm proud of you." Lion-O said weakly. "You showed that you can face diversity in a matter of seconds." Hystalin said to her husband, "Honey, don't go. I love you!" Lion-O said to his wife, "I don't want to go either, but I think it is the end of the line for the Lord of the ThunderCats." Nocti was reluctant to accept that fact that her father was dying.

"Hystalin... Nocti... take the Sword of Omens. I pass my title as the ruler of New Thundera to the two of you. Make me proud." Lion-O said weakly. "Father, don't go!" Nocti said. "Tell everyone on New Thundera that I love them all, and my spirit will be watching the world for now on." Nocti was full of tears. "Good-bye everyone. ThunderCats, HOOOOO!!!!!" Lion-O said. Then, Lion-O closed his eyes. His arms suddenly went limp. Lion-O has died. Hystalin & Nocti were full of tears. "NOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Nocti shouted. "Don't leave me Father!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Antichrist stepped away from the shadows. "It appears that your friend has met his demise." Antichrist said. "Don't worry about it, for you will be joining him as well!" Hystalin & Nocti jumped to the air as Antichrist attacked with his dark power. "Mother, I'm going to find Devilman. You stall for time while I go search." Nocti said telepathically to her mother. Hystalin nodded in agreement. While Nocti looked for Devilman, Hystalin fought against Antichrist.

Hystalin grew angry that she has now become a widow. Her anger grew so fiercely, that she felt changes within herself. She was enveloped in a light blue aura. Her jet black hair slowly turned bright yellow, and her eyes flickered from dark brown to light green. Hystalin, a half-saiyin, has donned the golden fleece. She has become a Super-Saiyin. "For robbing my husband of his normalcy and his life, I shall see to it that you share the same fate!" Hystalin shouted. With the Magic Sword of Fire in hand, she attacked Antichrist with all of her might.

Meanwhile, Nocti looked for Devilman. After searching a few rooms, she saw Devilman strapped to a table in chains with a few demons beside him with various weapons, torturing Devilman. "Leave him alone!" Nocti shouted. The demons turned their heads and attacked Nocti. Nocti, ready for a fight, quickly subdued the demon party in less than a minute. "Devilman, I've come to set you free." Devilman looked to Nocti as she undid Devilman's bonds. "Nocti, I thought I would never see you again!" Devilman said. "How did you get here?" Nocti told Devilman, "Aunt Krysa sent me a message in my dreams, and my Uncle Panthro built a transdimensional device for me, my mom and my dad... just like yours."

"That reminds me, did you come alone?" Devilman asked. "I came with my parents." Nocti said. "We came to find Aunt Krysa and to rescue you." "Did you know that..." Devilman was about to say. "I know." Nocti said before Devilman finished. "Antichrist also turned my father into a monster. That bastard forced me to kill my father!" Nocti said. "Lion-O is dead?" Devilman asked. "I'm so sorry." "My mother is fighting Antichrist right now. She had to, so I could find you and rescue you." Nocti replied. "If she's fighting that monster right now, then she'll need our help right away!" Devilman shouted. "Let's go!" Nocti nodded in agreement and both Devilman & Nocti rushed to where Hystalin is fighting Antichrist.

Meanwhile, Hystalin was having a hard time fighting Antichrist, even in her Super-Saiyin status. After emitting numerous powerful magical blasts, she started to overexert herself. She got to the ground, catching her breath. "You should not relax before the Antichrist." Antichrist taunted. "It is hazardous to your health." Antichrist was about to attack again until he heard noises coming from his left side. "What was that?" Antichrist said to himself.

Nocti & Devilman made themselves known. "Antichrist, I didn't like how you made me and my sisters fatherless!" Nocti shouted. "For this, you shall pay with your life!" Devilman spoke out as well. "For imprisoning and torturing me, I will not hold back the anger destruction that I shall bring to you!" Devilman shouted. "Do you know why?" Antichrist looked to the half-demon. "I'd ask you why, but I already know. It is because 'I AM DEVILMAN!' I've heard you say that many times before." Antichrist said sarcastically. "Now I shall find pleasure in sending the three of you where your friend is... TO HELL!!!"

Antichrist attacked with his dark magic, but all of them barely missed Hystalin, Nocti & Devilman. Hystalin shot a powerful lightning spell, but it did little good. Nocti emitted the Angel's Blaze. This time, the attack was successful. Antichrist cried in pain as the Angel's Blaze continued to affect him. Devilman flew to Antichrist and punched mercilessly. Devilman left many deep scratches in Antichrist's skin. Hystalin told Devilman to get out of the way, so she can prepare the Holy Flames spell. Devilman did just that. Antichrist was immobile and could not stop himself from being the victim of Hystalin deadly magic spell. Antichrist was took a direct hit, and he was annihilated by Hystalin's Holy Flames spell.

"It is over." Devilman said. "That was the last of the demons of my world. My job in here is finished." Nocti looked towards the heavens. "We've won, but at what price? My Aunt Krysa and my father are dead." "Nocti, let's go home." Hystalin said. Nocti couldn't be happier.

"Wait!" Devilman shouted. "I want to come with you as well. My job in this world is done. My girlfriend is gone. I have nothing left in this world." Hystalin & Nocti thought it would be best to let Devilman come with them. "What about the bodies?" Nocti asked. Just then, Lion-O's dead body quickly melted away. All that was left of him was his clothes. Krysa, whose body lay dead in an abandoned alley, also melted away, leaving her clothes behind as well. "There is no body Nocti." Hystalin said to her daughter. "You're father's soul is now resting in peace in heaven. Let's go home now." Nocti, Hystalin & Devilman turned on their trans-dimensional devices and teleported away to New Thundera.

When the three made their way to the New Cats' Lair, they were welcomed by the ThunderCats. "Nocti, Hystalin, welcome back. Where's Lion-O?" Tygra asked. Nocti just frowned and looked downward. "Oh... I see." Tygra said. "I'm sorry." "Father is dead." Nocti said. "Aunt Krysa was dead before we arrived to the other dimension."

Hystalin then turned to her friends and introduced them to Devilman. "Fellow ThunderCats," Hystalin shouted to her friends, family members and followers, "I introduce all of you to Devilman. He has decided to leave his home world and settle in our home. Welcome the newest citizen of New Thundera." Devilman waved his hand in appreciation.

In the end, Lion-O, the Lord of the ThunderCats, passed away in battle, and Krysa's whereabouts were revealed though the result was grizzly. Devilman's dimension is free of demons, and he has decided to settle in New Thundera. Hystalin, Lady of the ThunderCats, and her daughter, Nocti, now dons the golden fleece. There are a bunch of mixed emotions this day... sadness and elation. New Thundera will never be the same. Farewell Lion-O & Krysa... rest in peace. May Jaga comfort the two of you.
