"Aquawar, Part Two"
On a Florida beach, Boston Brand) appears to see the battle with the Xebelians. Black Manta) is about to kill Aquaman), but Jackson Hyde) attacks him saving Orin. As Jackson and Manta fight, Jackson asks why he has aligned himself with the Xebelians considering they killed Jackson’s mother and want to kill him. Manta callously claims that neither Jackson nor his mother ever meant anything to him.
Suddenly, Mera) and Aquagirl) appear attacking Manta and Xebelians. At Orin’s insistence, Jackson uses his Electrokinesis to cauterize Orin’s wound and the heroes return to the fight. However, they are hopelessly outnumbered. So, to save everyone, Mera pushes her Hydrokinesis to incredible limits pulling the water on the shore up into a massive wave-like mass. She then continues pushing and tendrils of water reach out, seize the Xebelians, and hurl them into the ocean.
Orin states that they must push the Xebelians all the way back to the gate. When Mera comments that they will need an army for that, Orin agrees and summons a massive army of undead sea creatures. With their undead army, the heroes push the Xebelians back to the gate. Jackson uses his power as the key to the gate to activate it and sends the Xebelians and Black Manta to Dimension Alpha. As Manta is transported, he vows to escape and kill Jackson. As she too is transported, Siren warns Mera that she is not trapped in Dimension Alpha, Mera is actually trapped on Earth.
After, Mera is unsure how Orin will react to her secrets being revealed. However, he tells her that she is an outcast from her home, but so is he. Jackson and Lorena agree that they are outcasts too. Orin continues stating that they all know how hard it is to face being an outcast alone but fortunately, since they have each other, they will never have to face it alone again. With that, Orin and Mera apologize to each other and share a kiss.
When all seems well, Boston suddenly appears and the Life Entity forces him to strike Orin with a blast of White Energy, seemingly disintegrating him into water.
