[INT. TEMPLE OF STILL TIME – NIGHT]
The air stood still.
Only the ticking sound of Haruto's watch echoed within the vast, ancient hall, carved from celestial stone.
At the center, the Time God — now fully restored but kneeling — breathed deeply, his silver hair swaying gently.
> Time God (softly):
"…You saved me again."
Haruto and Airi stood before him, surrounded by faint golden auras.
Confusion and awe shimmered in their eyes — heavy with the weight of memories not yet fully awakened.
> Haruto (hesitant):
"This… this isn't the first time we've saved you, is it?"
The Time God lifted his gaze — a mixture of pain and deep respect reflected within.
> Time God:
"No. This was the fourth time.
And you've never once remembered me… until now."
Airi clutched her chest.
Her ring glowed softly — pulsing with a warm, haunting rhythm.
> Airi (whispering):
"We couldn't repel the curse because we weren't… complete."
The Time God nodded solemnly.
> Time God:
"The curse of the Dark God has embedded itself across all of time.
Your souls — shattered fragments of the Light Gods — could not access your full divinity until you remembered who you were… together."
Suddenly, the air trembled.
A surge of divine energy pulsed through Haruto's watch —
In a brilliant flash, it transformed:
a radiant silver-and-gold timepiece suspended within orbiting rings, spinning like tiny planets around his wrist.
> Time God (gently):
"That watch… now holds the same power I once did.
But it refused to awaken…
Because the soul that wields it wasn't whole.
Until now."

[FLASHBACK – MEMORY VISION BEGINS]
A celestial battlefield — infinite, chaotic, burning with divine war.
Two radiant beings — the Light God and Light Goddess — held hands amidst the raging storm.
The sky cracked open with clashing energies.
> Light God (Haruto's past self):
"If we fall here…
Promise me, you'll find me again."
> Light Goddess (Airi's past self):
"Always.
Even if time forgets us —
My soul never will."
The vision shattered like broken glass.

[INT. TEMPLE OF STILL TIME – CONTINUING]
Haruto and Airi gasped —
Falling to one knee, tears brimming in their eyes.
> Airi (tearfully):
"That was… us."
> Haruto (hoarse):
"We've been doing this…
For thousands of years…"
The Time God rose slowly, power radiating from him once again.
> Time God:
"Yes.
Since the dawn of realms.
But now, the threads are converging.
The final convergence has begun."
Suddenly—
CRACK—!!
A deafening shattering noise echoed through the temple.
The ceiling split open — a black scar tearing across the sky.
From within, cursed light oozed down like molten ink.
> Time God (grimly):
"No Deity is allowed to step into another's realm.
That's one of the sacred laws written by the Absolute God Himself."
> Airi (shaken):
"But he's breaking through…"
> Time God:
"He's not stepping in.
He's cursing his way in.
Slowly. Painfully.
That is how the Dark God works —
Corrupting law through time itself."
Haruto's fists tightened.
> Haruto:
"Then he's already started.
That curse… it's what's been infecting all of us."
From the shadows, a familiar voice rang out:
> Elios (grim):
"He's almost breached this realm.
Once he does…
The balance falls.
There won't be another reset."
They turned.
Elios stood beside the Time God —
But now, something changed.
His form began glowing, shifting — energy surging beneath his skin.
His voice deepened — overlapping with another.
The Time God smiled softly.
> Time God (whispering):
"There's something I never told you.
Elios…
Is also me.
A fragment I sent ahead — to guide you when I couldn't."
Haruto and Airi froze — stunned.
> Airi:
"You split yourself…?"
> Time God:
"To wait.
To survive long enough to meet you.
Again."
Suddenly—
VROOOOOOM—!
The entire temple shook violently.
The black curse above tore further —
And a sliver of the Dark God's true form pushed through:
A storm of writhing tendrils —
Countless black eyes —
Twisting chaos glaring directly into the heart of the temple.
> Dark God (echoing, guttural):
"Found you."
Haruto swallowed hard.
> Haruto (quietly):
"It's really him…"
The Time God's voice rang with finality.
> Time God:
"No more delays.
It's time to prepare for the end."
The ground beneath them cracked.
Haruto and Airi met each other's gaze —
Both nodding.
United.
Complete.
Glowing with the power of gods.
> Airi (steady):
"Let's finish this."
> Haruto (resolute):
"Together."
SMASH CUT – BLACK
