## Plot

Bryson narrates the current situation. “So, how did our adventures take us to where we are today? Well, Janice’s death fueled Skylar’s massacre. Skylar left a clue, leading to Evan’s death trying to kill me. I was framed for Janice’s death, and exiled by Kathy. I eventually returned and exiled Kathy. She returned with supernatural powers, and brought friends from Georgia. They brought a Time Machine. Kathy and Angela died in the God Box. We used the Time Machine to go to the Titanic. The ship sank, and we went back to the present. Melissa already had feelings, so she confessed. That transpired into Yasmin killing Melissa to save the universe. This action scared her, finding solace in me. We had an affair, which led to the entire Dark Lord fiasco. Jennifer hated me already, so when he came back after graduation, she already had plans to take me down. This caused Belsen to exist, and god knows what happened there. Jennifer’s attempt failed, and then there was a worldwide manhunt from Rome. Luckily, we killed her, until we didn’t. She killed us, until she didn’t. Finally, we banished her to hell, but not without her funny antics of triggering our past traumas. That ended, and we had a massive group split, with most of us staying. Then Madeline, and Bailey, and now Athena’s Comet.”

The Group panicked and tried to figure out how to stop the meteor. Bryson simply says, “I’m done. If we’re going to die, then we must die, huh?” Everyone half-jokingly suggests, “What if we use a giant trampoline?” “What if we blew it up?” “Sacrifice, anyone?” Madeline sees this, and asks Bryson, “What are you going to do?” Bryson simply answers, “Nothing. It’s time for me to back down from the leadership and simply retire.” Madeline agrees with Bryson’s statements, supporting his decision to step down.

Melissa appears, and laughs at everyone, yelling, “This is for you Yasmin. This is it. The finale to your guys’ adventure.” Yasmin gets mad, and suddenly flies up and begins fighting Melissa. As Athena’s Comet nears, and becomes visible in the sky, everyone holds hands and hopes for the best. Yasmin uses a supersonic punch to decimate the meteor, which explodes, leaving everyone lost.

Bryson later wakes up, and gets dressed for school. He sees Yasmin across the street crying in her room, and heads downstairs. He meets with his mom, who tells him, “Good morning. How was the sleep?” Bryson answers, “Weird. I felt like I was an adult.” “Hm, must be because you are going back to school today.” In her room, Katie types in her typewriter. The season and movie ends with Katie narrating, “So, where are we? Well, we’re back in 2023. We’re high schoolers once again, and apparently, I’m the only one to remember what happened B.C. Before the comet.”
