EPILOGUE: WARRIORS OF JUSTICE
Conversion is complete...but the virus-
Probably just it's shell. Quick! Reverse the polarity and turn everyone back to normal size! We need to ask them how they did it - and try and stabilize the girl genius!
[Another bright light, but this time, also, the feeling of being squished by gravity as your ears pop. Soon enough, the forms become much clearer - and smaller. Soon enough, the sensation stops - and shouting from vaarious doctors and soldiers can be heard outside of the EPCOT and Diatron-15.]
The virus--!!
Look at the size of that thing!
Stand back, stand back! Let the micronauts have air!
[The shorter of the two men steps forward, and begins to wave their arm.]
Diatron-15! Welcome back! It appears you brought that nasty illness with you, but it can't harm anyone else now, at least! However, we need to find another way to stabilize the girl genius - you took so long her organs began to fail!
Don't worry, though, we will compensate you as promised! Please, please come out so we can put you through a check-up and decontamination! Then we can take this virus in for study!
[Ha. Ha. Hahahaha...
Well, congratulations. You are alive and back to normal size.
Also, those who have powers from before this journey will find they are back.

I have your back, either way... But, your life is too valuable to just let you do this without trying something - anything - else first. If we can't find another way, we'll make another way. Got it?
CW - suicide mention
[He smiles... or he tries to, anyway. It just slips away - there's something he didn't say earlier, and he still feels guilty.]
You lost someone to... choosing his own death. I knew that, and I still... I don't know if you had to watch how close I got to that, but I swear I won't go back there again. I mean it.

With a soft, but deep breath, he shakes his head... and then he moves forward, firmly wrapping his arms around Jonathan. There's a very large hug deficiency to tend to, these days, okay. ]
I didn't see it, but... [ swallowing past the painful lump ] I'll trust you.

Thanks. I'm really glad you didn't have to see it, even if that means... well, I got to tell you in person that I'm sorry I went to that place. That makes up for being that dumb a little, right?
