Chapter 12

It was getting noisy in the police station and the zombie were acting extremely aggressive now, not only was Claire having a hard time taking them on with her handgun but the zombies were moving faster too.

Morgan and Hope helped Claire take the zombies down quickly, Hope used her elemental bullets to slow them down while Claire finished them off, while Morgan made sure the zombies couldn't get close to Claire by quickly punching or kicking them away.

Karin and Yuzu were covering their backs while also picking up more ammo and items for Claire while she was busy, Yuzu, however, frowned as the noise inside the police station was getting louder and louder "Is it me or do these zombies seem rather springy for undead?".

Hope shot a zombie with an ice bullet which froze it solid, Claire immediately shot it in the head causing the zombie's frozen body to shatter, Hope sighed and nodded to Yuzu "Yeah... it seems that the helicopter exploding stirred them up, more than likely every zombie in the city might be heading this way now".

Morgan jumped up and backhanded a zombie's head off, in mid-air she used a bit of her magic to push herself forward towards another zombie and clawed it in half "Looks like we're going to have to keep moving quickly until things calm down".

The girls nodded and then immediately began to move to their next destination while taking down any zombie that got in their way but suddenly one of the windows shattered alerting the girls that a zombie had broken into the police station and that more than likely more of them would follow soon.

Eventually, Claire was able to find a fuse and used it on a fuse box she caught sight of while they were traversing through the police station, the fuse allowed them to quickly reach the lobby by opening one of the halfway-stuck gates completely.

Claire and the girls immediately rushed to look for Marvin only to find him sleeping on a couch, Claire sighed in relief but Hope sadly frowned, she knew that something was already happening to him.

Claire looked at the girls and nodded "Okay... we have to hurry...".

The girls nodded and not wanting to waste any more time they immediately left towards their next location, it seems like Claire knew where they needed to go so the girls decided to just follow her lead and support her.

So they got back into the dark zombie-infested hallways of the police station and while they ran towards wherever Claire was leading them they made sure to take down any zombies and incinerate their bodies just in case.

However, no matter how many they took down, more appeared from everywhere, one even bust in through a door and Claire immediately unloaded a whole clip on its head "Seriously?!".

Another one came out of a room nearby but Karin pointed her index finger towards the zombie "'Hado number 1! Shō!'".

The zombie was blasted by a burst of spiritual energy which sent him flying through the air until it slammed into the wall with a loud and wet sound, Yuzu then fired a black reishi arrow at the zombie's head popping it like a balloon.

Hope frowned not liking the fact that they were getting ambushed like this "Okay, we need to be careful when we approach a door from now on".

Everyone nodded and then continued onwards to wherever Claire needed to go, eventually they went inside another office and surprisingly found a round handle which Claire took "Okay this might come in handy, let's go!".

The girl left the office and began to rush to get things done, Claire seemed very motivated right now and the young girls were more than happy to follow her and help her.

Along the way, they continue to find more ammo, herbs, and all sort of items all over the place, Morgan, however, scratched her head confused as to why there was a lot of loot around the police station "It starting to feel like we're going through one of the Natural Dungeon's floors with how much loot we're finding everywhere".

Hope nodded since she and Morgan had gone dungeon diving once in a while to train and test out new skills, spells, and techniques, both Karin and Yuzu haven't gone to the dungeon but they did know how it functions and the things one can find in there.

While walking towards their next destination Claire hummed curious as to what Morgan was talking about "A Natural Dungeon?".

The girls nodded, but Hope was the one who elaborated "Have you ever played an RPG game before Claire?".

Claire nodded "Sure I have but why?".

The girls smiled at Claire and then Hope continued to explain "Well the Natural Dungeon is like an RPG game, you can go in there fight monsters, level up, get loot, money, and even skills and spells!".

Claire raised an eyebrow "That actually sounds pretty cool but isn't it dangerous though?".

Morgan shook her head and then excitedly took her turn to explain things to Claire "Nope! Uncle Harry created the Natural Dungeon and he made it in a way that anyone who dies or gets too badly injured gets transported to the healing temple in Kyoto where they're healed or brought back to life, everyone at home uses the Natural Dungeon to grow stronger and its pretty fun too".

Claire smiled at how excited Morgan seemed "Wow that sound so amazing and useful".

The girls nodded and grinned at Claire who just giggled, they eventually reached the first-floor hallway on the right side and followed the hallway.

They found even more zombies in this hallway and even saw a few of them crawl in through the windows but the girls took them down easily enough while Claire quickly boarded the open windows with some of the wood planks the girls have been collecting for her.

Morgan stayed close by to Claire to hand her the wood planks since she had them in her Boosted Gear inventory while Hope, Yuzu, and Karin took the zombies out, Hope sighed once they cleared the hallway "If it wasn't because these hallways are too narrow and we don't want to destroy this place we wouldn't be struggling with these many zombies...".

Yuzu and Karin nodded, Yuzu then hummed "I wonder if Harry-nii feels this frustrated when he has to hold back?".

Karin sighed "I think so... this is annoying but we can't risk damaging this big-ass police station or the zombies will find it easier to get in here".

Claire finished boarding up the window and nodded to herself, she then stood up and turned towards the girls "Let's go, guys, I remember there was another one of those chained-up doors close by, Morgan can take care of the chain and we can check what's inside".

The girls nodded and then followed Claire back to one of the rooms they first checked before, once inside Morgan immediately walked up to the chained-up door and ripped out the chains with one strong pull allowing everyone to go inside.

Inside they found a few more items and among them a flash grenade, Morgan tilted her head while holding it "Would this even work on zombies? They don't seem to rely on their sight too much".

Hope hummed "Good point.. they seem to react more to sounds".

Claire nodded "Well we might as well take it, you never know when it can be useful".

Morgan nodded and put the flash grenade into her Boosted Gear inventory, Claire then walked over to a locked door and unlocked it allowing easy access to the other hallway on the other side of the police station.

The girls walked through the now unlocked door and ran towards the second floor through the stairs and headed to a previous locker room and used the round handle to turn off the steam pipes, Yuzu giggled which made everyone turn to stare at her "Oh! Sorry, I just found it funny how we have been running around everywhere to find everything we need to open up more of the police station, it sort of feels like a fetch quest in a video game~".

The girls shared a laugh since Yuzu had a point, Morgan then smiled "I'm more amazed that Claire remembers where she has to go back to by just finding a new item! I would have just blasted or destroyed anything in my way".

Claire blushed a bit feeling embarrassed from the praise "Ah, it's not a big deal you just need to pay a little bit of attention to your surroundings".

Hope smiled at Claire "Don't downplay this Claire, what your doing isn't simple and honestly, we should really follow your example, we can't go around through life smashing and destroying things to solve our problems".

Karin nodded "Yeah... I think we sort of forgot how normal humans should behave".

Yuzu giggled "It seems like that's the case but I think it's Harry-nii's fault~".

The girls even Claire nodded in agreement, she might not know Harry personally but she can tell that he was a big influence on the girls.

But with that said Claire and the girls decided to go on and walked through the now steam-free pathway to reach a new part of the second floor.

-----

They weren't surprised to find even more zombies roaming around the new part of the second floor and quite honestly at this point the girls would just act on instinct and shoot, slash, blast or even smash zombies away from them with ease.

But as soon they reached a new hallway on the second floor, one whose roof seemed to have taken some damage they were suddenly attacked by something they haven't seen before.

This new creature was moving about the ceiling and jumping around with an impressive amount of agility, luckily it was making quite a bit of noise so the girls noticed it right away otherwise it might have caught them by surprise.

But everyone immediately aimed at the creature as it began to move around, Claire frowned and looked quite perturbed "What the hell is that?...".

The creature reacted to Claire's voice and roared loudly, it then launched itself towards Claire who shot it as many times as she could but the creature didn't even flinch but as soon as it got close to Claire, Morgan appeared in a blur in front of her and kicked the monster away.

Morgan frowned when she saw the creature spin in mid-air and land on its four limbs while growling "... It took on my kick... I've been using the exact amount of power to kill zombies in one hit and this thing took it like nothing".

The creature hissed and then launched its tongue at Morgan who summoned her Boosted Gear and slapped it away though her eyes widen in surprise when sparks appeared from the collision between the creature's tongue and her Boosted Gear Ironman Gauntlet.

Hope and Yuzu then shot at the creature but it jumped away into a ceiling meanwhile Claire reloaded her gun "This thing is definitely stronger than the zombies!".

Karin summoned her Zanpakutō and got ready to attack "Guys! Up your power levels! This thing is at least as strong as a low-class devil!".

Hope, Morgan, and Yuzu nodded and their bodies glowed for a few seconds signaling that they had powered up, the creature launched its tongue towards Karin but she just moved her head to the side and then swung her blade towards the creature's tongue cutting it off.

The creature hissed and growled in pain while Morgan ran up towards it and then jumped up, she grabbed onto the leg of the creature and then pulled it off the ceiling while also slamming it to the ground.

Claire immediately unloaded a whole clip into its head but the creature still continued moving, Morgan then lifted it off the ground and smashed it against the wall where both Yuzu ad Hope shot at it.

The creature didn't stand a chance against Yuzu's black reishi arrow which hit it on the chest and nailed it to the wall nor against Hope's dark bullet which hit the creature in the head and finally killed it.

Claire sighed once she looked as the creature stopped moving and frowned "What is this thing?".

Morgan got up close to the creature and inspected "I don't know... but it sort moved like Peter when he fights but more animalistic".

Hope frowned and then shot the creature with a cosmic fire bullet incinerating its body "Whatever this thing was I got the same feeling I get from zombies from it...".

Yuzu looked around for a bit "This thing was the creature we saw crawling outside the window not too long ago, it must have gotten inside through the holes in the ceiling".

Karin put away her zanpakutō away and frowned "It was stronger than the zombies for sure and it can sure take quite a bit of hits, kinda reminds me of the rooks Harry-nii told us about plus it was very agile too".

Morgan nodded "Yeah that tongue is dangerous as well, it actually made sparks when it hit my Boosted Gear... looks like we can't hold back any more guys, I bet there's more of those things out there".

Everyone nodded, Claire sighed and shook her head "This just keeps getting better and better... let's go, girls, we have to keep moving but let's be careful okay! These things seem to be capable of sneaking up on you".

Everyone nodded and immediately left to continue on their way to the next part of the second floor, they went inside a nearby room and immediately went through it and picked everything useful.

For a while, they have been finding a lot of grenade launcher ammo but since they still haven't found one they keep putting it away though now everyone was keeping an eye out for one, they also found another First Aid Spray.

Eventually, they found a battery for a detonator the girls found not to long ago and Claire remembering that she had seen a stick of C4 in a room on the first floor decided to go over there and see what it was for.

So the girls rushed over to the room Claire remembered seeing the Stick of C4 in and as soon as they got there she prepared the explosive and detonate it giving them access to another part of the room.

Inside this new part of the room, they found an outplace statue with a medallion encrusted in it, Claire recognized it as one of the objects on the dead police notes as a key needed to get out of the police station "We need that medallion".

Morgan nodded and jumped onto the statue's pedestal and ripped the medallion out with ease, she then jumped down and put it in her Boosted Gear.

Suddenly they heard a hiss and recognized it, the girls immediately got ready for an ambush, Yuzu saw another one of those strange creatures first and now knowing how tough and strong they are she used far more power when she attacked it.

The creature didn't even get a chance to reach when it's entire body exploded in gore as a black reishi arrow hit it and flew through its body, Yuzu nodded to herself and smiled.

Then Hope saw the other one and immediately shot it with lightning bullets which caused the creature to roar in pain and fall off the ceiling onto the ground, Morgan seeing this immediately rushed towards it and stomped on its head popping it like a ripe tomato, Morgan then looked around and once she confirmed there weren't any more creatures she called out to everyone "They're all dead guys!".

Everyone nodded and relaxed, Claire however hummed, she noticed that this time they dealt with the creatures faster and she was curious about it "That was faster than the other one".

Morgan smiled at Claire "Well, now we know how tough and strong these creatures are so we know just how much strength and power we need to kill it in one shot, Uncle Harry always taught us not to show all of our power and abilities in one go! You never know when you need to take an enemy by surprise!".

Claire scratched her head "You mean to tell me that you girls are even more powerful?".

Hope giggled "Yup! This isn't even 5 percent of our power Claire~ you didn't think that we were just that strong right?".

Claire awkwardly laughed "Errr I kinda did... you girls seemed so strong already but to think that wasn't even the tip of the iceberg".

Karin grinned at Claire "Well we can't exactly go around and chuck country-destroying attacks willy-nilly, there are still survivors in this city which is why we have been holding back quite a lot to avoid unnecessary destruction".

Claire nodded in understanding "I see, that actually makes sense... thank you girls for being careful with your power and actually caring about others".

The girls nodded and smiled at Claire which made Claire smile as well, after that, they decided to keep going with what they were doing which is collecting everything they need to get out of this place.

After moving a big bookshelf from a doorway in the room with the statue in it they immediately went through and ended up in a big library on the third floor, Morgan, Hope, Yuzu, and Karin jumped down from the balcony to the first floor and immediately took care of the zombies down there.

Karin landed sword first into one killing instantly while Yuzu shot another one on her way down in the head splattering blood everywhere, Claire rushed down and joined the girls who nodded at her letting her know that the room was cleared.

The girls immediately ran around and checked everywhere for items and loot, Hope even found a map in a room adjacent to the library and immediately took it since it might be useful for Claire, Hope then looked around and noticed another out-of-place statue with a medallion.

Knowing that it was something Claire was looking for she jumped up onto the pedestal and ripped out the medallion with ease and then jumped off the pedestal onto the ground, she took a look around to see if she missed anything but once she saw that she got everything useful already she immediately went back to the others.

Once everyone regrouped and gave everything they found to Morgan so she could put it away in the Boosted Gear inventory they all headed towards the door and opened it with the spade key, Claire picked up a Red Book that looked suspicious, and then everyone walked out the newly opened room were they ended up back in the lobby on the second floor.

Claire noticed another statue at the far end of the balcony and everyone immediately headed towards it, Morgan didn't even wait to be told and immediately ripped out the medallion off the statue and put it away in her Boosted Gear inventory with the other "That's three, is that all we need?".

Claire checked the notebook they got off the Dead police officer and nodded "Yup, there's supposed to be only three so I think we're all set, let's go girls!".

Hope, Morgan, Yuzu, and Karin nodded and everyone headed to the other side of the second floor, Morgan sighed "I feel like we ran around this entire police station at last twice, I missed being able to fly everywhere".

Hope giggled at her friend "I know but I think it's good that we don't over-rely on flying to get everywhere, Daddy didn't learn how to fly until way later on his adventures! In fact, he could only fly in his dragon form and he couldn't do that often because people would have panicked in some of the worlds he visited".

Yuzu tilted her head "But he could use Shunpo to get to places faster no?".

Karin shook her head "Not really, you have to know where you're going first and then you have to maneuver around objects and that's kinda hard to do at first, I'm sure Harry-nii doesn't have a problem with it now but when he first learned it and a bit after that I'm sure he couldn't easily use it to traverse anywhere especially cramped places like this police station".

Yuzu nodded "Ah that makes sense".

Claire giggled which made everyone turn to look at her "Ah! Sorry, I just find it funny how you guys speak of Harry, I feel like I'm getting to know him by just listening to you guys talk about him, he seems like a really fun and nice guy to hang around with".

Morgan excitedly nodded "Yeah! Uncle Harry is the best! and he has tons of cool stories about other worlds! You won't believe some of the things he's seen, Claire!".

Claire smiled at Morgan while Hope spoke up "Actually, it was those stories that inspired me and Morgan to go adventuring around in other worlds".

Claire nodded "I see, then I'm glad you girls are following in his footsteps, especially since all of you have been so supportive and caring about me".

The girls then surprised Claire by giving her a big hug, she was a bit caught off guard but easily recovered from her surprise and then returned the hug with a big bright smile on her face.

After that wholesome moment, Claire and the girls headed to the next place they felt they needed to check, another room on the second floor of the police station where they had seen an armless statue.

Claire believed that the Red Book she found was a part of the statue and given how this entire police station was filled with secrets involving puzzles and fetching objects she thought that they could find something useful there.

It didn't take them long to get to that room, in fact now that they were familiar with most of the police station the girls were feeling very confident to rush everywhere they needed to go, the only thing that they needed to keep an eye on were those weird creatures that had began to appear.

Once in the room Claire immediately walked towards the armless statue and took a look around, luckily she found the statue's arm closed by so she grabbed it and then placed the Red Book in its hand.

There was a soft click as the book rested in place and Claire nodded to herself, she then proceeded to put the arm back into the statue.

The statue's other arm began to slowly turn and the girls watched as the statue opened its hand and released the scepter with a big red gem at its head that it was holding, Claire took it and gave it to Morgan to hold in her Boosted Gear for now.

Morgan noticed a switch on the scepter and immediately clicked it, the scepter then released the big red gem, Morgan threw the rest of the scepter behind her with a shrug and then put the gem away, she scratched her head and sighed having to do all of that was sort of weird to her "This is getting a bit ridiculous no? This place seems like something Aunty Luna would come up with...".

Hope sweatdropped and shook her head "Let's not ever tell her about this place, Mama Luna might actually turn the Potter Household into something like this...".

Morgan, Yuzu, and Karin sweatdropped knowing that yes, Luna would probably do something like that just to mess with everyone and Harry would let her do it.

Claire smiled at the girls, she has come to like and find fun in these little quips the girls do sometimes "Come on girls we need to keep going".

The girls nodded and everyone immediately left and headed to the first floor to head to the left side of the Police station next, as they moved through the first room Hope caught site of a safe and she quickly walked up to it.

She then shot the handle with a normal fire bullet which partially melted the safe and opened it, inside Hope found another hip pouch and she immediately ran to Claire and gave it to her.

Claire smiled at Hope and took the Hip Pouch, she immediately put it on, having more pockets to have stuff in is always a good thing, after that, they continued on going through the rooms, and having been in these before they didn't need to take a look around so they rushed through.

Of course, they found a few zombies but the girls quickly took care of them Hope made sure to cremate the bodies as soon as the zombies were down to make sure they wouldn't have to deal with them again.

As they ran through the locker room again, Yuzu then noticed something behind a security wall and pointed at it "Hey guys! Look! Is that a Shotgun?".

Everyone looked towards where Yuzu was pointing, Claire smiled the moment she noticed what she was pointing at "No, that's a Grenade Launcher GM 79".

Morgan grinned "Oh! So that's where it was! Now we can make use of the grenade ammo we have been finding all over the place, now give me a second".

Morgan summoned her Boosted Gear and then used a new technique she had programmed into it "Let's try this! 'Lightning Blade!'".

Morgan opened her hand like a blade which was then engulfed in red-colored lightning, Claire, Yuzu, and Karin jumped at the sound coming from Morgan's technique, and all three of them couldn't help but notice how it resembled a bunch of birds chirping at the same time.

Morgan grinned and then swung her red lightning-engulfed hand at the security wall carefully so as to not hit the grenade launcher and destroyed the wall in a singles swipe.

She smiled and then reached inside the massive gash her technique just made and took the grenade launcher out and immediately turned around and handed it to Claire.

But Claire was too busy gaping at what Morgan had done "Morgan? What was that?".

Morgan tilted her head "Oh? That was a technique someone named Kakashi taught me, it's usually called Chidori but that sounds girly so I called it by its second name! Lightning Blade! which sounds way cooler!".

Hope sighed "Morgan your a girl remember? and you like cute and girly stuff".

Morgan grinned and shrugged "Not on my technique's names! Those are supposed to be cool and impressive! Who goes around yelling Chidori! when it means a thousand birds singing?".

-----

Back in Konoha both Sasuke and Sarada suddenly sneezed out loud which sort of made Sakura jump in surprise, Sasuke frowned "Why do I feel like someone just insulted and made fun of me?...".

-----

Claire took the grenade launcher from Morgan who smiled at her "Thank you, Morgan, and well I do like Lightning Blade much more than Chidori, it does sound cooler that way".

Morgan gave Claire a big bright smile and nodded at her "Right?".

Hope just shook her head but still smiled at her sister in all but blood "Well now that Claire has that grenade launcher we should keep going! and let's keep an eye open, it seems like this place still has plenty of secrets and surprises".

Everyone nodded to Hope and then continued onwards while following Claire who knew where to go next.

-----

Morgan took out a pack of flame grenade ammo and gave it to Claire who quickly reloaded the grenade launcher with them and then hung it against her back, Claire nodded to herself feeling a bit more ready now that she had more firepower.

After having gotten a new weapon Claire felt ready, to begin getting out of the police station so she quickly guided the girls back to the lobby, the girls then walk towards the big statue in the middle of the lobby and place the medallions they had collected into the slots in the pedestal.

To Morgan's excitement, Hope's intrigue, Yuzu's curiosity, and Karin's confusion, as soon as Claire placed the medallions in the pedestal it began to shift and move until it revealed a new gate and staircase

Morgan excitedly giggled "Look Hope! A secret passageway!".

Hope smiled and nodded to Morgan "I can see that Morgan but I would like to know why?".

Yuzu hummed and tried to look into the darkness on the other side of the gate "Yeah! Why would someone build a secret passageway in a museum, now a police station?".

Karin sighed and rubbed her eyes "This whole building is ridiculous...".

Claire looked at the gate and couldn't help but agree with Yuzu and Karin "Looks like it leads underground, good we can now get out of this hellhole... let go and check it out but first let's get Marvin!".

Yuzu, Karin, and Morgan nodded and quickly followed Claire to go look for Marvin who as far as they know was probably sleeping, however, Hope looked down and frowned.

She knew that it was time so she mentally prepared herself for what was to come next.

Claire was very happy right now, after running around the police station with girls for a long while they were finally ready to begin to get out of there "Hey Marvin! I think I found a way out!".

Claire approached Marvin who looked to be still sleeping "Come on! Let's get you out of here!".

Marvin woke up breathing heavily and looking a bit lost which worried Claire and the girls quite a bit, Claire wanting to make sure he was fine decided to ask him if he was okay "Are you okay?"

But Marvin began to have a hard time breathing and he looked very pale, he shook his head "No I... just go and save yourselves, girls".

Claire looked stunned at what Marvin just said while Morgan, Yuzu, and Karin frowned not knowing what was wrong with him, Hope sighed and Claire then snapped out if it's and shook her head "Come on, it's bad and we have to get you to a hosp-".

But Marvin cut her off "PLEASE, Claire... we both know how this is going to end... get out of the city".

Claire frowned and shook her head "We can't just leave you here...".

Marvin sighed "Claire please... go... do this for me".

Morgan teared up a bit and shook her head "But why?! I healed you... you should be fine...".

Marvin smiled though he almost looked like he was in a lot of pain "you're a smart girl Morgan... I think you already know what's going on...".

Morgan sniff a bit but nodded "... it's a virus... a very powerful one that causes mutation...".

Claire looked down, she herself had also begun to come to that conclusion but didn't want to believe it, Karin sighed and scratched her head in frustration while Yuzu shook her head "Can you guys cure it? You and Hope can use magic right?".

Morgan just sniffed again and shook her head but it was Hope who answered her question "We only know basic healing... we're not Daddy or Asia or Granny Tsunade either, even when curing a virus with magic you have to have knowledge of how the virus works and how it affects the body... Daddy can get that information with his Rinnegan, Asia can analyze it with her Sacred Gear and Granny Tsunade can use her medical Ninjutsu to analyze it as well but Morgan and me? We don't know how to do that we never bothered to learn more about healing magic either...".

Morgan rubs her eyes with her hand "We never had to... we're immune to anything, we have a very powerful and fast healing factor too so we only learn a few healing spells for wounds and such... I'm sorry Marvin...".

Marvin smiled and then patted Morgan on her head "It's okay... you might be a very powerful dragon and super smart but your still just a child Morgan, it isn't your job to save everyone".

Morgan nodded but she looked very sad, Claire frowned not liking seeing the usual bundle of energy and smiles look so sad so she hugged Morgan who hug her back, Claire then looked at Marvin "Hey Marvin, thank you".

Claire gave Marvin a smile, and Yuzu and Karin nodded at him and gave him a smile as well, both of them were already used to death so even though they were sad about this whole situation they still knew that they needed to be strong.

Morgan turned towards Marvin and sadly smiled at her "I wanted you to meet Uncle Harry and to go see my world... Aunty Death will care for you, Marvin".

Marvin nodded and smiled "Yes, Hope already told me".

Claire then gently pulled Morgan towards the secret passage while being followed by Yuzu and Karin.

However, Hope stayed behind and stared at Marvin "Morgan isn't used to goodbyes or deaths, I'm sure my Daddy had to do so in his adventures so I knew we would eventually find ourselves in this kind of situation... its a lesson Morgan needed to learn as well, we simply can't save everyone".

Marvin smiled and nodded at Hope "You're a good and kind sister Hope".

Hope teared up a bit, she might have already seen a lot of death in her life as the Phoenix Force but it seems that as Hope it was harder to accept "Would you like me to end it quickly? It will be painless I promise".

Marvin sighed and nodded "Would you? I really don't want to end like one of them".

Hope nodded, she then lifted her hand and opened it, and her Cosmic Flames burst to life, she stared at them for a little bit but then she softly blew into them causing her Cosmic Flames to gently fly towards Marvin who smiled and stared at the flames "What beautiful flames...".

The last thing Marvin saw was the sad but kind smile on Hope's face and the beautiful yellow and crimson flames before he was turned into ash instantly.

Hope looked down and a sole tear escaped her eye but she quickly rubbed it away "... You're the second person to call my flames beautiful... have fun in the afterlife with Grandma Lily, Grampa James, and the rest of the family that lives with Mommy Death Marvin...".

With that said Hope then turned around and took off running to catch up to her friends, she learned a new thing in this world and that's the fact that goodbyes were always hard and she wondered how her daddy would handle them.
