Epilog

One week later

A blue portal illuminated the high-security zone in the EPV headquarters. The lights dimmed, and she stepped into the anteroom, which was only a few square feet. Behind her, she heard the plasma cannons load with a high whistle, and the weapons containing the herbicidal liquid discharged a soft 'click'.

She looked at the armored glass pane in front of her, which was taking up the entire surface of the wall. Behind the pane, a mist billowed.

"Krang #2." Shiro said

Inside the prison it remained silent, nothing indicated any activity.

She sighed. Her lines glowed white, her hair lifted weightlessly.

And white, smoky threads shot through the fog as fast as an arrow, a panicked shriek, shrill and out of this world, rang loudly - and abruptly fell silent as the Krang sister was slammed against the front pane with a crash, as if she were a doll.

She howled in pain. Shiro didn't bat an eye.

"Silence." she commanded, and that sound was brutally cut off as well.

The Krang sister's one eye twitched wildly back and forth, her tentacles wanting to lash out, but she was paralyzed.

"I have a question for you, and you will answer it," Shiro stated.

The twitching eye found her and looked down at her with pure panic.

"Are you able to take my Ninpo away from me like your brother could?" asked Shiro.

The Krang sister gulped, staring at her in horror.

"Answer me!" cracked Shiro's voice through the air like a whip, and the alien flinched.

"NO!" she screamed in fear, "NO! ONLY SOME COULD! HE WAS THE LAST!"

Disappointed and despairing, Shiro closed her eyes.

The Krang sister slid slowly and squeakily down the pane, gasping for air as she regained control of her body bit by bit.

"Damn." muttered Shiro and hung her head.

"You want to lose your Ninpo? Why?" croaked the alien behind the glass. "I know your Ninpo - its appearance was prophesied to us centuries ago! You could have EVERYTHING!"

Shiro's face contorted

"I already had." she whispered.

"Oooohhh... look at it! It's suffering!" sneered the Krang sister, who had plugged up courage - and was immediately grabbed again and smashed against the pane. She cried out in pain.

"You have no fucking idea!" Shiro hissed in anger, with clenched fists.

But the alien snickered down at her sardonically.

"Did it realize it is not allowed to die, yes?"

"Enough." whispered Shiro, full of hate.

The white threads snaked tighter around the Krang's body, penetrating her slimy skin, traversing her neural pathways. Her cry of anguish wailed through the room.

"Any last words?" asked Shiro coldly, raising her hands - between her fingers white bolts flitting back and forth.

"You'll see everyone you love die!" screamed the Krang sister. "Not even to redeem you, they would make a portal to the prison dimen-!"
