Suddenly, a piercing noise filled Xevnas' ears, and he slowly blacked out...
A white light filled his mind. Suddenly, an image of his father appeared, and spoke to him.
"My son... If you're receiving this message, then times are bad indeed. I had a shaman implant this message into your mind at birth. It was made to activate in case our world and the human world were in trouble. So, if you're seeing this... The world, no, our worlds, need you. Planted within your body is the key to both open and destroy hellgates, just like Yamato. The reason being that a shard of Yamato exists inside your body. Yes, I forged Yamato with Sparda. It's not exactly his sword alone. Also, if this message is activated, you no longer need a host. Your power is greater now. Now, you must go, and destroy the hellgates!"
After this, the light got brighter and engulfed Xevnas. When the light faded, he was lying in the ground next to Trish and Dante! His family chain had changed from its gold hue to a strong black. When he summoned the Greshall's Spine, it was no longer the zweihander he had known for years. It was a Buster Sword, glowing with black energy. (Large sword that is two handed, with an exceptionally large blade. Think Cloud's sword from FF7.)
"Guys, I know this is gonna sound REALLY weird, but... My father sent me here. To destroy the hellgates. I guess he sent me to you as bodyguards or something... I have a shard of Yamato embedded in my body! That's why I resonate with hellgates. My crest glows when I'm near one. You guys are going to need me. Whaddya say? Should I tag along?"
Xevnas waited for an answer...
