BOOOM! BOOOM! BOOOM! BOOOM! BOOOM!
Countless explosions engulfed her surroundings, but Maria shifted into her true Outer God form. Reality distorted around her as millions of black tears floated in the air, consuming the blazing spheres until they vanished.
"Congratulations. You forced me into this form. Your strength is truly commendable."
"A-AAAAHHH! AAAAAAHHHH!"
Red Heaven screamed in agony as Maria's hand reached his face. Despite his frantic regeneration, darkness and void swallowed him whole until he disappeared within her Dominion.

The two remaining Heavenly Saints froze in terror, unable to aid their "sibling."
It wasn't unwillingness that paralyzed them.
Their bodies simply refused to move.
They faced a being so horrifying that horror alone chained them in place.
"Don't worry. He's fine," Maria said with a gentle smile. From her shadows, a blazing red and purple figure emerged.
Their eyes widened in utter disbelief.
Red Heaven had returned.
