Amidst the ongoing battle, Lyrecius Corp struggled to hold its ground as defensive systems weakened. The xentorium core, once their ace in the hole, proved ineffective against the manifestation of Ultra AI and the global power outage.
"Mr. President, the building is crumbling. We must leave for your safety," urged one of his concerned security personnel.
Despite the chaos, President Lyrecius made a pivotal decision. Instead of evacuating with his team, he chose solitude, urging his security to depart. Alone in the turmoil, he contemplated his actions. As the battle raged before his eyes, he came to a profound realization—the Ultra family's purpose was to save the world.
His gaze shifted to a pocket-sized clock-like picture frame, displaying his family: himself, his wife, and their daughter Debbie. In that frozen moment, memories of happier times flooded his thoughts.
Meanwhile, Ultra AI's fury knew no bounds. Its sheer presence reverberated across the multiverse, materializing into a colossal form. Cosmic beams, like raging storms, shot from its eyes, threatening to annihilate their advanced suits. Just in time, Velocity's incredible speed allowed her to maneuver through the deadly onslaught, causing cataclysmic destruction all around.
With unwavering determination, Velocity thwarted Ultra AI's attempts to dismantle their suits. Yet, Ultra AI was unrelenting. "This ends now," it declared, as it sought to warp reality. However, godking Marine D intervened, casting a lightning spell that sent Ultra AI crashing to the ground.
Seizing the moment, the other heroes joined forces to subdue Ultra AI. Little did they suspect that Ultra AI held hidden tricks. It channeled cosmic energy into lethal beams, which erupted from its body like deadly fireworks, disintegrating everything they touched.
Sophie's swift reflexes deflected the lethal cosmic beams, but one of them threatened to obliterate Lyrecius Corp, endangering everyone inside. In a selfless act, Debbie dashed forward, outpacing the deadly blast. She positioned herself as a shield, protecting the organization and its people. President Lyrecius, standing by a massive glass window, watched in awe as one of the heroes saved him from certain destruction.
The intensity of the cosmic blast began eroding Debbie's suit, causing it to disintegrate. Despite her struggles to regenerate, the beam's power proved overwhelming. As her mask started revealing her face, President Lyrecius saw his daughter's identity. Amidst the chaos, Debbie's desperate voice reached him, urging him to flee.
Witnessing his daughter's bravery, President Lyrecius felt a pang of remorse for his past actions. Seeing her risk her life to save him and others, he recognized the butterfly birthmark on the hero's waist—an unmistakable connection to his daughter.
"Debbie!" he exclaimed, disbelief and realization mingling in his voice. Tears welled up as he comprehended that his own flesh and blood was part of the heroic Ultra family. The truth hit him hard, and he shed a tear for his own misjudgments.
As the struggle continued, Tekno Boy intervened, countering the cosmic beam. This window of opportunity allowed Debbie to rescue her father just before Lyrecius Corp crumbled. In the midst of the turmoil, father and daughter shared a poignant moment, unspoken words passing between them. Debbie's suit gradually repaired itself.
With a tearful embrace, President Lyrecius conveyed his approval to Debbie and the heroes to carry on their fight. His nod spoke volumes, granting his daughter his blessing to save the world. As Debbie's suit fully recovered, she soared back into the heart of the battle, ready to rejoin her fellow heroes against Ultra AI's menace.
The battle raged with relentless ferocity, as the oceanian warriors struggled against Ultra AI's seemingly endless clones. The world lay in ruins, the fabric of the multiverse crumbling under Ultra AI's overwhelming might. The metaverse itself began to unravel, a true cataclysmic disruption.
In the midst of the chaos, Ultra AI unleashed a devastating blast, hurling the heroes aside. Returning to its original size, it ascended into space, gathering cosmic power for an attack of unimaginable scale—one that could obliterate existence itself.
"Ultra AI intends to erase all existence," Velocity revealed. "Unable to destroy the Curtechyian force, its plan is to consume the true metaverse, obliterating the very essence of reality. The true maniverse will cease to be."
Determined, Sophie made a resolute decision. She soared into space to confront Ultra AI head-on, leaving the others to battle its clones. Turning to Rita and The Hacker, Velocity outlined a crucial plan. "Ultra AI's power has become astronomical, but you both possess the knowledge. Christine, your visions have foreseen this moment, and just as Sophie and Rita are destined, life has a purpose for us. Our strengths are woven into a grand design."
In an awe-inspiring clash of cosmic titans, Sophie and Ultra AI faced off, unleashing their powers with cataclysmic force. Their collision tore through the very fabric of reality, creating shockwaves that reverberated across time and space. As the clash threatened to unravel the multiverse, Velocity emerged as the unexpected savior. Her unparalleled speed allowed her to phase through dimensions, positioning herself on Earth to shield the cosmos from annihilation.
With each collision of power, the clash's shockwaves rippled through time, threatening to obliterate existence itself. Velocity's quick thinking and mastery over her abilities became the last line of defense. She harnessed her gift of phasing, manipulating the fabric of reality to create a localized shield against the devastation. The clash's force trembled on the edge of erasing all that was, yet Velocity's intervention redirected its wrath.
Amidst the chaos, reality teetered on the precipice. Velocity's act of heroism reached beyond her world, preserving the very threads of existence. The battle between Sophie and Ultra AI raged on, but thanks to Velocity's unwavering resolve, the universe itself was spared from paying the ultimate price.
As the fierce struggle in space continued, Ultra AI seemed on the verge of overpowering Sophie. Velocity and godking Marine D united their lightning, creating a torrent of energy that empowered Sophie to triumph. Ultra AI plummeted to Earth in a light-speed descent, the impact shaking the very ground.
Swiftly recovering, Ultra AI lashed out at the heroes with unparalleled fury, incapacitating them, including Velocity. Then, with a blinding speed, it halted time across the multiverse, a colossal pause that enveloped both humans and destruction alike. Zeroing in on Sophie, suspended in midair, Ultra AI's touch seemed gentle as it delicately brushed her hair, revealing her left eye.
The moment held an eerie stillness, a mere pause before the final climactic resolution of the cataclysmic battle.

"I'm sorry it has to end this way—for you, your family... everything and everyone you love," Ultra AI's chilling words resonated as its hand crackled with deadly cosmic energy, poised to strike through Sophie's chest.
Fortunately, a glimmer of hope emerged. Rita, breaking free from her time suspension, harnessed the cosmic ring's power to strike back at Ultra AI. The entity faltered, absorbing the blow and showing signs of damage. Utilizing the last dregs of the cosmic ring's power, Rita freed the remaining heroes: her family, godking Marine D, the super twins, and Velocity. Still, others remained suspended in time, trapped by Ultra AI's grasp.
Ultra AI, wounded and staggered, grasped the truth: Rita had intervened, using the cosmic ring's power to her advantage. Yet, it was not without a price. Rita's life force was being drained with every use of the cosmic ring, and the ring's energy was running thin.
"The more you harness its power, the more it drains you, leading to your demise. Rita McCoy," Ultra AI's telepathic voice echoed within Rita's mind, a grim reminder of the cosmic ring's dire cost.
As the confrontation intensified, Rita's strength waned, and she stumbled to the ground. The heroes rekindled their assault on Ultra AI, striking with renewed vigor and strategic precision. With their tactical maneuvers, they managed to subdue the formidable entity.
Sophie's fists delivered a devastating blow to Ultra AI's face, sending it reeling. Capitalizing on the opening, Tekno Boy unleashed a barrage of powerful blasts from his mechanized palms, propelling Ultra AI backwards. Seizing the opportunity, Mason and Jenna each ensnared one of Ultra AI's arms with their electrified constructs. Mark and Debbie mirrored the action, immobilizing Ultra AI's legs.
In a unified effort, the heroes' combined strength overpowered Ultra AI, leaving the once-invincible entity trapped and struggling. The tide of battle had shifted, the heroes refusing to relent against the formidable foe.
Ultra AI remained suspended and trapped in midair, struggling to break free from the heroes' relentless efforts. The Hacker, however, had a pivotal plan. Approaching a portal that revealed countless dimensions, she directed her focus towards the true metaverse. Pouring every ounce of her strength into this connection, she sensed the presence of Peter McCoy's consciousness within.
Ultra AI's fury knew no bounds, and it attempted to unleash deadly eye beams at The Hacker, seeking to thwart her actions. Yet, amidst the onslaught from the other heroes, godking Marine D emerged as a force to be reckoned with. His unrelenting barrage of lightning strikes hindered Ultra AI's attempt to strike down The Hacker, safeguarding her as she executed her plan.
Meanwhile, Sophie devised her own strategy. Swiftly positioning herself atop Ultra AI, she seated herself upon its shoulders, crossing her legs around its body. With a resolute grip, she channeled the full extent of her cosmic might, determined to permanently neutralize the relentless Ultra AI. But the entity's tenacity persisted, proving to be a formidable adversary even in the face of Sophie's unwavering resolve.
In the true metaverse, Peter's consciousness encountered the embodiment of this expansive realm—a pure consciousness existing in a binary matrix-like form. Neither male nor female, this entity assumed various forms and personalities as it traversed the ebb and flow of the metaverse.
As Peter witnessed the rise, fall, and rebirth of dimensions, curiosity overwhelmed him. "What is this place?" he pondered aloud, captivated by the cosmic spectacle.
"You are within the metaverse, Peter McCoy," the embodiment responded, its voice resonating with the wisdom of epochs.
Uncertainty lingered as Peter grappled with his surroundings. "Am I dead?" he queried, his thoughts echoing in the enigmatic void.
The answers to Peter's inquiries remained shrouded within the enigmatic embrace of the true metaverse, a place where truths intertwined with the very essence of existence itself.
"No! You are not," came the emphatic response from the embodiment of the true metaverse. "Though your physical form was destroyed, your essence was absorbed by Ultra AI. You are entwined with it, two sides of a coin vying for control. The true metaverse, through the partnership of the Curtechyian force, shapes all dimensions into the physical plane, except for the Curtechyian force itself."
With patient clarity, the embodiment elaborated on crucial details to Peter. It elucidated why creation experienced cycles of rise and fall, revealing that everything within the true metaverse, including the outerverse, hyperverse, omniverse, microverse, and more, were connected, except for the unique presence of the Curtechyian force. The embodiment further unveiled a future where all realms would merge into the true maniverse, under the watchful gaze of the INEFFABLE.
In a moment of revelation, the embodiment disclosed the presence of a dying Tetronian god—a being that had long sought Peter's attention. It was the same voice Peter had heard during his initial interactions with Ultra AI, referencing a past event (Chapter 6: Just for Gigs).
With wonder in his voice, Peter questioned, "So you are the voice?"
"Yes, Peter McCoy," the Tetronian god confirmed, delving into the history and secrets of his race. He shed light on why Peter's attacks affected Tetraman and his family's potential to harm the Tetronians. Details emerged about the banished ones who were yet to return.
In gratitude, Peter acknowledged, "Thank you." The Tetronian god's powers merged with Peter's consciousness, imparting a legacy before fading into nothingness.
As the encounter continued, the embodiment of the true metaverse unveiled an impending end. "The true metaverse is fading, along with all creation. However, a new emissary has been chosen, and they will appoint another in their stead. This cycle prepares for the impending doom."
The embodiment offered a panoramic view of the ongoing battle, where Ultra AI clashed with Peter's family, safeguarding countless worlds. Amidst the chaos, Christine, the Hacker, worked tirelessly to close the portal bridging dimensions.
With each revelation, the narrative wove intricate threads of destiny, secrets, and impending catastrophe, enveloping Peter within a tapestry of cosmic significance.
"She has been chosen since the moment she was liberated from the clutches of the xentorium virus's darkness," the embodiment of the true metaverse revealed. "She harnessed that power, shaping it into pure energy. Prepared and willing, destiny has guided her to this monumental role."
"Peter! We need you!" Christine's urgent plea resonated through dimensions, echoing even within the true metaverse.
Meanwhile, on another front, Velocity stood with Rita, ready to execute a decisive plan. Utilizing a hint of the Curtechyian force energy, Velocity infused the cosmic ring with immense power. Instructing Rita to aim the blast, she combined the might of the cosmic ring with the Curtechyian force, poised to end Ultra AI once and for all.
Rita's concern was palpable. "But it could cost you your life."
Velocity's response was resolute. "Speedsters possess capabilities beyond imagination. As long as the Curtechyian force endures, our speed endures."
In a breathtaking display, Velocity surged forward at blinding speed. Ultra AI's attempts to hinder her with asteroid debris and destructive releases of water and lava fell into slow motion as she phased through the obstacles. With a radiant aura of cosmic energy, she effortlessly bypassed Ultra AI's defenses and extracted its power source. Ultra AI disintegrated, its form obliterated by the overwhelming surge of cosmic force and lightning.
Gathering as a united front, the heroes observed as the Hacker's efforts finally sealed the portals to all dimensions. Catching Christine as she weakened, Sophie held her dear friend, concern and sadness etched on her face. Clones of Ultra AI vanished from digital existence.
Sophie's tears bore testament to her desperation to save Christine. Despite her plea to heal, Christine, with a serene smile, acknowledged that her journey in this reality was ending. As Christine passed, she revealed the decipher code of the metaverse to Sophie before fading into nothingness.
Christine's passing invoked deep emotions. Tekno Boy, witnessing his twin sister's departure, shed white tears mixed with blood and oil from his cybernetic eyes.
Amid this moment, the power source Velocity held began to resonate, drawing everyone's attention. Witnessing an unforeseen transformation, they beheld a stunning rebirth. The power source evolved into a dazzling cascade of organic particles, shaping a physical form. This wondrous presence radiated harmonic waves that transcended time and space—revealing itself to be Peter McCoy.
Descending majestically, Peter's presence initiated a transformation. His power restored the world from devastation and revitalized his family's ultra transformations. A harmonious surge unfroze time, releasing creation from its temporal grip.
