Private/Closed Convergence Omniversal Heroes

[Godjacob]

Name: Hiro, Kale, Kyuseishu, Keyblade Trinity Squadron, Omnidroid
Location: Specter's Ship

While Scott had been in the middle of his conversation, one of those powerful metalic arms shot up with the aim to grasp around the giant's throat to drive and try to slam him into a wall; all the while it'd aim to choke him if it managed to lock on. The Omnidroid also took note of the floor that its actual target Doomslayer used as an effort to shiled himself as it made the proper calculations.

It fired a blast again at the Doomslayer, but this one was continuous as it would keep firing this single beam stream to try and weak down the barrier and get to its target to fry it in one go.

As the attacks fired at Kale, the Saiyan had her teeth grit as she endured the flame currents struck her and now she was being attacked from all sides; seemingly with no way out.

But, it had not been lost on the leader of the Trinity faction this green outline began to shine around Kale. As the two energy beams got closer and closer Kale's energy began to rise more and more as the outline thickened; and some sort of energy began to appear around the Berserker Saiyan

Smack!
​

The two Mecha Hiro blasts struck Kale....only for this green energy field to appear around her. One that at first glance appeared to be a barrier of some kind to combat the magic & energy attacks, but this seemed...different. This one seemed to continue to expand out, pushing the attacks that had struck her body away from her as it was more explosive than her barrier previously. This ominous presence had not been helped as Kale glanced at her opposite with a sadistic smirk that dawned on her lips.

"Is that all? What a shame to go out on this whimper before you are sent to hell. RAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!"

Kale unleased a roar, as the "barrier" proved to just be the set up for a massive explosive wave; all her remaining energy released at once in all directions around her as her aim was clear. To devastate everything and all her opponents in one go as the explosive green wave spread to try and push through each square inch of the cafeteria as a rumble was felt from the powerful shockwaves of the explosive blast...one that extended beyond the cafeteria itself.

-----​

Hiro felt that rumble as he was knocked for a loop but managed to catch himself with a timely stab to the ground with his Keyblade. Hiro had been confused as he turned to the source of the tremor which appeared to be somewhere else on this monster ship while Kyuseishu's spectral avatar remained unphased at all this.

"Would appear that the blooming wallflower is making quite a scene. I wonder how much this ship can handle?" Kyuseishu mused as Hiro has his eyes wide and immediately bolted as he charged to try and make his way to the sound of that previous tremor; to where Kale and the others might be. In spite of the healing of previous injuries, Hiro had been all but exhausted if not drained of magic so from a realistic standpoint there was little he could do to help in such a situation.

But that meant nothing to him.

Hiro had kept moving forward all the same to advance through the levels as quickly as his legs could move him. Kyuseishu himself glanced over back to the wreckage that had been Clockwerk; with its eye still shining as the Keyblade spirit glanced curiously....deep in thought even if its mask gave no indication of anything.

Name: Erza, Dipper, Raven & Star
Location: The Wilds

Erza managed to compose herself, however slightly, as she removed her hand from Rex's collar as she let out a sigh while she listened to Rex assure her of his capabilities as "the strongest" warrior to aid her. Erza was never one to not appreciate a helping hand, but from her experience those who tended to be the most boastful ended up falling short of the hype.

"It would be wise to discuss how to best make use of your "skill set" along with all of ours to move forward." Erza replied simply before she heard Keda speak up.

-----​

Star and company glanced over as Nomad seemed to offer a solution to Twilight's question as he brought a rock to life that had limbs and all. Without a word it appeared Nomad aimed to have this rock watch over the wand.

"Well....that is something." Raven muttered as Dipper looked on with shock, though really given everything he had seen both before & after he had arrived with this group nothing should have shocked him.

"S-so, we're gonna use that to watch her wand before we go inside it? How do you even control it if we go inside the wand and..." Dipper said though before he could ask for logistics of it Star had a big grin and held her wand up.

"...and nothing. This is perfect. I trust this little guy an if things get dicy I'll be aware of it and we can hop out and go "wha ta!" you know?" Star asked as she referenced one of the sound effects Marco makes with his martial arts and even did a similar gesture with an air kick. This was met by a deadpan from Raven.

"As...solid as that idea sounds. I prefer some added security for comfort." Raven said as she held a hand over the rock with an eyeball and muttered a quick spell as a light violet symbol appeared on one of its wrists.

"This should trigger in the event it bumps into something with an aggressive aura." Raven explained before Star held her Wand and moved in front of everyone.

"All right, here we go." Star said as her wand began to shine and before long she would aim to suck everyone including herself into the wand as they would work to be transported inside its shockingly big castle "world" within it while the wand would be left in the cave of Nomad's creation.

Name: Yang, Caulifla, Azula, Blake & Weiss
Location: Camelot

"Yeah no issues with sharing." Yang said with a smile as she felt Ruby hug her arm when the king gave them a stay at the castle, even with the possible threat of Z or this ominous force here instantly the blonde bombshell had felt some relief they had a place to stay.

Though now that this had been settled, Yang turned to the others present. Seemed Sans was okay, even if he departed a while ago which was a bit of a relief though these twin cyborgs and the latter's ringleader seemed to be curious. as she moved by Tony.

"So, how do you think will share rooms with those guys?" Yang asked with a whisper in reference to Negan & Sam among the other new arrivals. Though the latter tried to quell the issue Yang still had reservations about them collectively and felt that with the two cyborgs so close tension was bout to rise.

------​

Caulifla's eyes widened a bit as, in spite of her choke Lancelot raised a hand as he seemed ready to fire one of those energy spears right at her face! Thinking quickly, if not on instinct, she tilted her head to the side and aimed to toss Lancelot away from her and towards the ground with authority as she hoped to get herself out of the arrow path before it could slice her face.

"Eat this!" Caulifla yelled out as well as she aimed to create separation and even worked to charge a ki blast in preparation for a follow up attack.

-----​

The Orc groaned in pain before it could further advance on Asta Weiss knocked it back with a combo strike as it toppled over to a knee. But the mighty beast had been far from slain, and after it healed from those wounds from Weiss & Asta as it snarled at the pair and stood back up before it raised its large club high into the sky.

SMACK!!!
​

The ground rumbled and cracked beneath the pair as a shockwave traveled along the surface towards the pair. Weiss acted quickly, as she produced a Glyph and used it as a platform to jump off of as she moved to fire several ice shots in the air; both to try to damage and freeze the beast by the feet to possibly give Asta an opening if he somehow managed to avoid the shockwave.

"If it can heal then we need to try and overwhelm it. Attack from ever angle we can with multiple strikes." Weiss suggested to Asta as she fired her ice shots.

-----​

"No need to say thanks. It's just good to keep positive morale in such an unusual situation." Azula said simply as Bowser had observed the pair conversing with each other but paid it no mind. Bowser instead seemed disgruntled over this entire situation.

Here he was, the King of the Koopa, reduced to some guard dog for this human in Negan. He had followed his "lead" mostly on the assumption this mutual alliance would benefit him or provide him a way home. But so far they had warped twice now and he had been no closer to his kingdom as his home and his prize Peach remained out of reach. Bowser had been annoyed of Negan beyond just the principle of having to listen to this human but he had managed to avoid an outburst to this point. Mostly because he seemed to not like anyone here.

Not that he feared the human mind you. And this disgruntled attitude had been noticed by Azula who kept a mental smirk as the gears began to turn as she walked over to gather some berries just outside of camp. Well within eyeshot of both Nanashi & Bowser and within ear shot of the massive turtle dragon.

"I must say, it is weird you are left in camping duty. Someone as imposing as yourself seems more suited to go to the castle in case things get dicy. But Negan is in charge here so I'll have to trust his judgement. Even if I think the role doesn't suit you." Azula replied with a subtle whisper to Bowser, one that didn't even look like from Nanashi's view she had spoken to him as her back was in his view not her lips. Either way Bowser made no immediate reaction though he had heard her words as she moved over back to the middle of camp to lay out some berries among natural rations she figured would help.

Name: Toph, Lucario
Location: Goldenwalk

With Spider-Man's webbing, Toph felt some instant relief as some of the slacked had been picked up which made it easier for the blind girl to dig her feet in as she aimed to push back to collapsing ceiling & walls more to try and give some more stabilization. The stress had been mitigated thanks to Spidey, but it was still no cakewalk and in the end it appeared that their efforts were merely a temporary measure.

"S-so...w-what....what now?" Toph ashed between grit teeth as clearly a plan was needed to get out of this tunnel. In theory the webbing as the Spider guy kept it would should stall enough to allow them to escape but to where and then what to do remained to be seen.

-----​

Lucario glanced at the two soldiers who seemed to have more...advanced technology, then the era he had been part of. But that counted for little as they seemed to not take advantage of any distance the weapons gave them as it acted quickly; using Double Team to make multiple after images to surround the soldiers in a momentary act of confusion before it would leap between them with the aim to deliver twin kicks to the sides of their head.

------------
Name: Ogremon
Location: Catgirl Universe

"Well whatever it takes to get this thing going. Just make it quick, I'd rather get it going to wait around any longer." Ogremon said to Haze & Doug, though really his comment had extended to everyone.

Naturally, he seemed eager to get going is his impatient tone had been any indication.

-----------
Name: Akame & Bakugo
Location: Yharnam

"SHUT IT! It's sissy sparks can taste this!" Bakugo spat as he had taken Eileen's warning more as a challenge especially when his UA classmates had decided to partake into the battle. Now it had been a means to prove himself compared to his peers...prove himself better naturally given his hyper competitive mindset.

"EAT THIS!" Bakugo spat as he hovered over the beast's face and fired a powerful explosive blast as he aimed to challenge the monster and its attack head on to try to blast its skull.

Akame moved to quickly dash and try to cut the other back foot of the beast; the goal to knock it off balance. Though the assassin was never one to not proceed with caution as he plan was to deliver this quick strike then hop back to get some distance in the event the beast's attack was as dangerous as Eileen warned it to be.

A creature made up of bones? Reminds me of one of...her "servants", seems this world is just as desolate as my own...

-----------
Name: Katsu, Lilac
Location: Dreamland (Green Greens)

Katsu & company listened to the explanation offered by these new arrivals. In truth the idea of a multiverse had long since been a weird concept for any of them to handle though this is the first mention of some multiverse guardian. He wondered why Master Kairi made no mention of them nor had he appeared before now?

Though instantly, the idea someone observed them raised a question on Katsu's mind.

"S-say, did this Flint guy see anything else? Maybe two other figures with something similar to this named Fumi & Hiro?" Katsu asked as he raised his Keyblade before Maple as he seemed curious if not slightly on edge for such an answer. Katsu tried to play it down, but ever since he had been taken and brought to this realm by that...that nutcase in the mask he felt a wave of guilt as Hiro & Fumi had been left separated from him and each other because he wasn't strong enough to avoid getting caught.

The least he could do was try to see if these guys had any information about where they were. He owed it to them.

 

[Ariados twice]

Catgirl's universe
"We're using the crystal to search the multiverse with the help of Catgirl's scans." Batboy said. "The larger the signal, the easier it is to locate. While that's happening, you're welcome to gear up." Batboy typed a code into a keyboard on the wall. A large door opened, revealing a room full of gear and weapons of all sorts.

Yharnam
Jay flew over to Midoriya. "Need help with him?" Jay Mexicano asked Midoriya. Meanwhile, Variant Fox moved to join Alicia. Now in his Fire Variant, he aimed a focused stream of fire at the leg.

Goldenwalk
Lobomon shook his head at Rocket's insistence on collecting scraps afterwards. Whatever. Didn't matter to him. The Legendary Warrior leaped into action. "Lobo Kendo." Lobomon cried out. He sliced a scorpion in half with his Licht Schwert light sword.

 

[Shen: King of Digimon]

Name: Specter, Timeman
Location: Specter’s Ship


........
BOOM!!!!!!!!

Kale’s destructive shockwave completely destroyed all things that came across it’s path. The flames, lasers, all of it! It shrieked through the open air, the Two Mecha Hiros searing from the sheer energy from the wave. The Mecha Hiros tried to cling on to life, but the light’s in their eyes fizzled out. Their motors liquidifed within their metal chest cavities, oil pouring down from every crevice of their bodies as they limply fell to the ground.

This power...!

Specter grit his teeth, being in proximity of the attack was already starting to set some of the fabrics on his chair on fire, burning into the nicely woven fabric. Specter cursed, slamming a button on his chair. Before the wave could hit the monkey overlord, a blue aura encircled him, and within seconds he vanished from sight, the wave rushing past his position.

The wave tore down the walls all around the room, the one close to the replication systems for food violently exploded, as it was connected to several key power nodes. Several explosions were heard on lower decks as this happened, the ship making deep resonating sounds as if it had been hurt. The glass behind Kale that lead to the vacuum of space was all but vaporized, the sheer power it took to destroy it so quickly began to crack The capital grade armor lining the roof and outside. From a view in space, the ship began to vent debris and smoke into the vacuum.

Warning alarms were lit up everywhere, red lights and horns blaring out down every hall. The room where Meta was began to shake and churn, the elector itself beginning to spark and creak. Where the omnidroid and hank were, the corridors began to crack and some walls even break down. Along hank’s path of his minituarized van, the floor began to come apart at the seams, some of the Canopeks scarabs being smashed by falling parts of the ceiling and walls.

Specter teleported to the main bridge, smoke coming from his chair’s fabrics alongside his cape, which he was quick to pat out. Timeman gave him a cynical look, but a knowing one.

“Let me guess, the insolent primate you trusted in did that.”

“Tch, it seems there was a lasp in judgment.” Specter brushed himself off, collecting himself once more. “Status report, now.”

“Decks 04-09 have received massive damage to their internal structure.” Timeman spoke plainly. “10-28 have suffered traumatic energy backlash. They have been drained of power and would take several hours to repair. 65% of Fore weapons are down. If the backlash continues, it may result in the temporary disabling of our maneuvering thrusters.”

“All of that...?” Specter’s eye’s grew wide, the monkey paused. “We have to reach out target. How far are we?”

“Five kilometers and closing. But we wouldn’t have to resort to this if we had just bagged the worm as I had suggested...”

Specter gave a glare at Timeman, still keeping his cultured apperance rather than resulting to brute force on the robot.

“You are on thin ice, Robot. Remember what can be given may also be taken away.”

Specter spat his venom, looking toward his space station coming extremely close. It wouldn’t be long now, he just hoped that Kale has diffused, he couldn’t afford any more damages.

Name: Rex Raptor
Location: Wilds.

Rex’s eyes widened when he heard the talks about moves and abilities coming from Erza’s mouth. Craaaap! This is where things start turning into action, huh? That’s just terrific....maybe if I just focus on her then she might forget about it....

“Well...of course! That’s the first step of having a tactics meeting! Like...what do you do? I saw the shiny armor stuff and the hot-“ Rex cleared his throat, collecting himself. Excellent swordsmanship.”

Name: Belowski
Location: Camelot Castle


Belowski parted ways with the young Kaiba, walking up the stairs woozily and wobbily. Belowski let the universe guide him up the stairs and across the halls, seemingly without any rhyme nor reason to his choices of direction. Belowski wasn’t one to worry about...well...anything, he just understood that noah’s Situation would go as fate intended.

He noticed a few guards round a corner somewhere, in quite a hurry. Would explain as to why the halls were so desolate before. He put a wrist on his chin.

“Huh...that looks like a sign from the universe. What do you think Mokey?”

Suddenly, a small, square creature floated out from one of Belowski’s cards. The small creature had tiny yellow wings on its top corners and a halo in the shape of a question mark. In short, it looked as if a pillow had gained wings.

“Mokey.” Mokey Mokey nodded.

“Ahah...okey dokey Mokey Mokey.” Belowski chuckled woozily.

Belowski wandered to where the guards had gone. They seemed To have gathered around the outer Wall, looking on a battle between a helmeted hedgehog, And a flying woman. Belowski titled his head. It wasn’t everyday you saw a sight like that. Something was nagging in his brain. Something that he knew must be a calling....

Within minutes he arrived down at the training field, claufia and Lancelot in a heated battle. Belowski approached the epicenter of battle, his apperance being a shock to the bystanders, trying to call him away from the battle. But it was in vain, as Belowski approached the scene with a carefree attitude. Suddenly, Belowski leaned in on Claufia and Lancelot, who were in close quarters with each other, claufia charging up a ki blast. His face got in between them.

“Howdy dudes.”

 

[comic]

Master Chief
Specter's Ship - Hallway
"Cortana, lock on-" John stopped himself, quickly reminded of the absence of his AI companion. He didn't have time to dwell on it, however. The rolling cutter was flying toward him, and he'd seen what it could cut through. It would shatter his shields, and cut deep into his armor. Luckily for him, he wasn't given the false idea that his armor would protect him. He'd been in enough situations to know not to rely on his armor. It was a crutch when needed, not a life-saver.
He quickly side-stepped, the rolling cutter whizzing by him as it flew around, coming back in for another attack. He didn't have Cortana to give him a crutch, either, but he was still capable. Narrowing his eyes, John watched as the rolling cutter neared... and dodged once again, this time knocking the flat side of the weapon with his fist, imbalancing it enough that it slammed into the metal floor, embedding itself deep enough through that it was barely showing, having stopped.

John returned his attention to Meta to finish the fight- until a blast knocked everyone off their feet, the Chief going flying back into the wall as red and green consumed his vision before everything went black.

...
......
.........
His vision returned, his black-out only temporary as the spartan heard the sound of his alarms blaring, informing him his shields were down. He was lying on the ground, the ambient white light having been replaced with a red hue. Light fires cackled about him as he slowly got to his feet, shields recharging with a gentle hum.
He didn't have Cortana around to tell him what the hell had just happened, so he'd have to settle for letting it remain mysterious for the time being. He winced slightly, feeling that one of his ribs had cracked. His suit was already working on keeping that from being a liability, however. "Team... status." He grunted, looking about for the others, glancing down at his HUD's radar to pick out any moving pings.

Doomslayer, Ant-Man, Hank Pym, Luis
Specter's Ship - Omnidroid Battle
"Worth a shot." Hank growled as the scarabs began to descend on them, and Luis' eyes widened. "Oh man, there's more of those things! It took like, forever to destroy one last time." Hank simply rolled his eyes as he made his way out of the banana field. "We'll be fine."
Just at that moment, however, the back door opened and a monkey hopped in. Luis turned around to look back as the monkey turned its gaze to him.
They stared at each other for just a couple of seconds, before the both of them simultaneously opened their mouths and let out screams at each other, making Hank jerk on the steering wheel. "What the hell, Luis, are you trying to-"

------------

"Right, yeah, easy tasULP-" Scott was cut off as he failed to notice one of the arms lunge straight for his neck, and it proceeded to constrict him as he grabbed it with both hands, tugging at it in vain. He felt it pushing against him as it attacked something else, not even looking at Scott.
Wow, jeez. Guess I'm just chopped liver to this guy, huh?
He glanced back as best as he could to see the wall nearing, and a sense of panic began to arise in him. Yet, no matter how much he struggled, he couldn't break the Omnidroid's hold, or push, and after another moment, he felt his vision beginning to slip. "N-no..." He gasped out, before everything went black.

------------

Flynn could see his metal shield beginning to glow red as the Omnidroid blasted at it, melting through it quickly in an attempt to get the Doomslayer. He began to force himself to breath faster, thinking back... thinking back to her. To Arlene. Watching her get ripped to pieces by the demons as he was helpless to stop the slaughter. His best friend. His only friend... Using this, he could practically feel the adrenaline shoot through him as he grit his teeth, the pain fading away for now.
Quickly, he dodged to the side as the red beam shot through the metal. He reached his arm up, proceeding to tear off half of the metal sheet, and quickly diving to the side as the beam shot toward him. He raised the small shield he has as the beam slugged into it, but he held his ground, sweat dripping down his forehead as his last bit of metal began to turn red and melt apart. He hadn't even noticed it was gone as the Omnidroid's red laser barreled down on his arm and body, but to no avail. He could feel the heat, but his suit simply took the punishment. After a moment, he started to walk against it, pushing back the laser as he struggled, breathing heavily, teeth grit painfully tight, blood still dripping from his forehead and down his cheek as he pushed, taking step after step against the Omnidroid's laser.

Seeing its current attack was useless, one of the Omnidroid's arms shot forward, slamming into the Doomslayer as the laser stopped firing, pinning him to the ground once again with the clear attempt at crushing him. However, the Doomslayer held back against it, his eyes practically bulging from his head, his veins visibly popping out of his skin.

"RIP AND TEAR! I'M GOING TO RIP AND TEAR YOU TO FUCKING SHREDS!"

Spit flying from his mouth, the Doomslayer grabbed one of the mechanical fingers, and ripped it off with a jerk before using it to stab into the arm, punching the finger straight through as he felt the pressure relent, and he pushed up on the arm, shoving it back with a mighty heave as he continued to scream, his face going red, yelling about ripping and tearing and killing.
Those past times he'd gone berserk had simply been a boost from the suit.

The TRUE Slayer had emerged.

Negan, Snake, SG-1
Camelot Castle - Throne Room
Negan gave the king a pleasant smile as he wrapped up business with the other newcomers. "If it's not any trouble to you, I've got a group of pals back in the woods. Was scoutin' when we found this place, and they'd be thrilled to know there's a place of refuge." He then raised his arms slightly in a show of non-hostility. "Of course, if you're full of people, we'd understand. Just lookin' for an all-clear to let my people in. I promise I'll do what I can to keep 'em in check, we're really not a buncha troublemakers, save for... a few moments." He chuckled, sucking in a bit on his cheek, making a small squeaking sound through his mouth. "Your choice. No pressure or nothin'."

"Uh, thank you." Daniel gave the king a nod, before saying his thanks to Gawain as well, and leading the exit out of the throne room, SG-1 and the others following.
"Gotta give 'em props." Jack said, giving a fake smile. "They're definitely the weirdest people we've ever visited." Daniel chose to ignore this as Teal'c gave a slow, small nod. "I concur. We have not encountered anthropomorphic animals that speak fluent english."
"Not so loud, guys." Samantha urged. "They're being nice. No need to talk about them behind their backs. Besides. We've met beings like Thor. That was pretty crazy."
Jack looked back at Samantha, squinting at her. "Right. And talking cartoons aren't?" She let out a sigh, though didn't give up her argument. "Sir, we've been through a lot of things. I mean, a lot of weird things. This isn't hardly the weirdest one yet. Like... remember that time Teal'c almost sprouted killer bugs from his back?" Teal'c looked calmly toward Sam, raising a single brow.
"Or how about that time Daniel went into a future alternate dimension that ended up saving us? Or how about-" Jack waved his hand dismissively, turning forward again. "Yeah, yeah, I get it. We've done a lotta weird stuff."
Sam gave a satisfied smirk as the group continued to walk, until Jack looked back at her again, grinning.
"But not as weird as this. I mean, King Sonic? C'mon."

Artemis
Camelot Castle - Dining Hall
She found her thoughts resting on this... Dirk character. His power was impressive, sure, but he was such a... she couldn't find words to describe it. Had he not known her at all? It was as though he'd been playing with her, and she wasn't comfortable with that idea at all. Maybe she'd talk to him later, straighten things out, let him know exactly what her deal was. Perhaps he'd back off then, and if not? Well, she could get others to defend her case... powerful as this 'Bro' might be, there was no way he could possibly fight off-
No. New Artemis. Fighting and bloodshed needed to be put behind her for now. She wanted an adventure, better than home could provide, and what better way to have a good adventure than to have friends? People who actually like you. No way could she attain that if she acted so condescending toward the opposite gender.

Then Joseph happened to be in front of her, saying something that pulled her from her thoughts. Something about... chastising a carnivore? My, he was way off his game if those were the insults he could come up with. However, Artemis wasn't given the chance to formulate a snarky remark despite not knowing the full context of what the man had said, but to her surprise, the young girl spoke up.
And she didn't stop for a few good solid burns that left Joseph blanking, his eyes wide, mouth moving up and down but no words coming out as he was clearly stunned and stumped. Probably at the fact that a twelve year old girl was telling him off- and probably because he knew she was right, too. Kind of hard to refute truths.
Artemis beamed at Serena, before smirking at Joseph. "Come now, Serena. As fun as this encounter is, we have food to consume, and I'll admit, I too am feeling quite hungry." She walked swiftly by Joseph, her hand brushing against Serena's shoulder as an indication for the two of them to continue. "Normally, a Goddess shouldn't require food... but I suppose my severed power from Olympus makes me more... mortal than normal."

Logan
Goldenwalk - Sewers
"Good work, kid." Logan grunted as he gathered the two strings, making sure they were attached to the sides of the tunnel on either end of Toph, and beyond her, before beginning to walk backward, holding on the strings, stretching them thin as he moved back. "This is risky." He told Toph. "But if I can fling myself fast enough... catch you... with enough momentum, I can get us both out of harm's way." He stated, jaw set as he then looked toward Peter. "Kid, when Toph and I are clear, you make sure you're out from under that as soon as you can. Got it?" He asked. Without waiting for a response, the Wolverine continued to pull back, monitoring the strings to make sure they didn't snap off- they didn't, luckily. Finally, when he felt he'd pulled enough, he prepared to launch himself, straining as he held himself in place, aged muscles bulging as he grit his teeth. Damn web stuff was hella strong, had to give credit there...
He let out a shaky breath, holding himself there for a moment, before looking toward Toph. "Ready, kid?" He asked.
With that, he launched himself.

Rick Grimes
Fenrir Far East - Simulation Room
Rick Grimes looked about, having momentarily forgotten it had all just been an elaborate simulation... he was still trying to wrap his head around it all. This kind of technology should be science fiction... well, according to them, he was supposed to be just that. Fake. Not real. Yet, here they all were. It was incredible yet difficult to comprehend.
He dropped the replica at his feet as he let out a cough. His side was beginning to act up... seems it still wasn't fully healed. He clutched it with a slight wince as he turned to Tsubaki. "I've been fighting hell for the past four years of my life. If there's one thing I'm good at other than leading... it's killing."

Vriska Serket
Sequin Land - Risky's Ship
"Troll brains?" Vriska raised a brow, hearing Rottytops' mumble. Giving a smirk, Vriska swept some of her long hair from her face. "Right, zombie. I imagine troll brains have a pretty neat variety. We have different blood castes, genealogy, and biology. Some have red blood, some have green blood, some have blue blood and some have purple blood. I myself am cerulean blooded, one of the higher-ranking castes on land. As for taste... I imagine a fuchsia blood would taste delicious." Vriska informed, before biting her cheek in thought. "Though I will say jade bloods are totally delicious. Had some of that myself from my girlfriend, and... ex-girlfriend..." She paused awkwardly, before clearing her throat. "Nevermind, I'm probably boring you with dumb biology stuff, anyway."

Frisk
Jet's Subconscious
*You tell Jet no.
*You explain that enough positive feelings can pull you out of the mind.
*You order him to focus on his happiest memories.

She dodged one blast, raising a shield for another, though it cracked on-impact. Jet found this even his diamond shields were melting away and being cracked by the powerful blasts coming at them from all angles as they tried their best to cover each other's backs. Blast after blast was deflected or blocked or dodged, but the pair were wearing down quickly, and the blasts were showing no sign of relenting-
That is, until they did. Frisk blinked as the red lights about them disappeared.

*You ask Jet if it worked.
*If he thought happy enough.

"No, he didn't." A voice replied as Gaster, tall and slender and menacing, stepped out from the darkness. Frisk and Jet were quick to face him, but he lazily waved his hand and the two of them were blasted into an unseen wall, four skeletal hands shoving them into the wall, glowing a light blue as dark tendrils began to wrap around them. "I'm sad to see you go so soon, but..." Gaster then paused, his face betraying no emotion, until he blinked, and the tendrils vanished along with the hands as Gaster took a step back from them.
His face seemed to be stuck in that expressionless look as he stared ahead, as though he'd seen something odd. When he next spoke, his voice had grown distant, as though someone else was speaking for him.

"Your help was appreciated. I hate to end this so early, but I have work to get to."
With that, Gaster faded away, leaving the pair confused as their minds, too, began to slip away, consumed by a more familiar darkness, rather than the cold hostile one they'd spent the last hour fighting.
...It seemed they'd... won?

*YOU WON!
*You earned 0 XP and 0 gold!

Dr. Gaster
THE VOID
"I see." Gaster gave a slow nod, calmly pondering the information for a few moments before beginning to slid back into the dark. "You've held up your end of the bargain, and I will hold up mine. You will return to your friends, all unharmed in the slightest... save for some potential psychological damage, but that can't be helped." The doctor chuckled as the darkness consumed him, and Silver found he was alone in the blackness.
"Your help was appreciated. I hate to end this so early, but I have work to get to."

Silver suddenly found himself sitting on a metal floor in an unfamiliar room... it wasn't the True Lab at all. He could see Frisk, Jet, Maxwell, and Blaze lying on the ground nearby. They were in a completely unfamiliar environment, obviously taken here by Gaster. The others were still unconscious for now.
However, Silver could faintly hear a voice in his ear. A familiar one. That of the doctor.

"Welcome to the Far East."

Vaga 'Sadum
Sangheilios
The Phantom rose, the evacuation being put into effect. Sangheilios was gone, and even as noble as the sangheili were, they weren't idiots. This was not a fight they could win. Not at this point. The smartest decision they could make was a full evacuation to live and fight another day. To hold out as long as possible in the hopes of finding a way to stop the Flood.
On the holographic communication panel on the interior of the Phantom, Vaga stood before it, the face of an aging jiralhanae appearing, his lip curled back in a grin. "My, the mighty sangheili flee like cowards. This much, I expected." He sneered. Vaga snapped his mandibles in reply. "Have you come to enjoy the show, or are you going to be of some use." He growled, narrowing his yellow eyes at the brute, who chuckled. "I'm debating on it." He stated. "Depends on how generous I feel... to be quite honest, I'd love to see your entire species get wiped from existence by the parasite." The two leaders stared each other down for a few moments, before a hum escaped the jiralhanae's lips. "Do you know who I am, Commander?"

"Atriox. Leader of the Banished. Heretic to the Great Journey." Vaga stated, still glaring at the holographic eyes of Atriox, who's smirk widened. "You don't scare easy." He stated roughly. "I like that. Maybe your incompetent race could be spared... After all, it would benefit the both of us." There was another pause as they stared at each other, before Vaga turned around, flexing his mandibles as he thought. "A thousand ships or not, the Flood presence here cannot be stopped. Sangheilios is gone."
"I'm aware of that." Atriox replied. "I've already begun glassing the surface."
"WHAT!?" Vaga whirled about, enraged as he involuntarily pulled out his purple energy sword, igniting it. Atriox simply scoffed, staring Vaga in the eyes. "Would you rather the Flood claim it as their own? Sangheilios is gone, you said it yourself. There's nothing left to save. The glassing will slow the Flood, not stop them, but it'll be enough to allow us to depart this system with your people." With that, the communication link ended, Atriox's face disappearing as Vaga's blade disappeared, and he tucked it back onto his waist, feeling foolish for have even ignited the blade.
"Commander." The major looked intently at the last living member of the house of 'Sadum. "What are your orders?"

Vaga sighed, flexing his hands for a moment, clenching and unclenching them into and out of fists, before clicking his mandibles, looking toward the smaller snagheili. "Tell them we will take up the offer. Sangheilios is beyond saving. Atriox..." He grit his mandibles, feeling disgusted at his own words. "Atriox is our only hope of survival."

"We are Banished, now."

 

[Skittles09]

With just a few bullets remaining to be removed, her body would be fully healed and she would finally be allowed to return to human form. Unfortunately, the interruption from a large skeleton beast was unexpected as everyone rushed in to fight it. The werewolf made sure to stay as far back as she could while observing the fight that ensued, not wanting to be a part of it only to further injure herself and prevent her body from healing.

The large skeleton beast was a sight to behold, making her wonder if this was the work of a necromancer, but quickly dismissed the idea as she tried to pull out the remaining bullets. She couldn't help but watch with interest as the others fought against the strange beast, making guesses on who would survive and who would perish.

However, the surprise of another skeleton beast interrupted her thoughts, along with the sight of two newcomers who were attacking the second beast. Everything in front of her was in a state of ravaging chaos as she watched, enjoying every moment of it.

 

[Pro Hero Dekiru]

UA Students, Soul, Ash, Link
Yharnam

Midoriya noticed Jay come in, trying to help.
"I need you to try and get everyone away from this thing!" he exclaimed, focusing himself.
Hoping the plan would work, Midoriya began preparation.
"One For All, ONE HUNDRED PERCENT!" he cried, red energy glowing in his veins and through his costume, stretching across the entirety of his right arm, from his shoulder all the way down to the tips of his fingers. His muscle mass in his right arm increased a small amount, and green lightning surged across his body, centered in his arm and hand.
At the same time, Full Cowling was activated, smaller sparks of lightning emanating from the hero-in-training's body, shooting out around him. Small pebbles trembled at his feet.
"I can't hold this power forever... It's going to discharge eventually." He turned to everybody on or around the second Darkbeast. "EVERYONE, PLEASE GET AWAY FROM IT RIGHT NOW!!!"

Sir Lancelot, Goku, Galacta Knight
Camelot Castle Training Grounds

"Look like they're drawing a crowd," remarked Goku, noticing the knights and soldiers watching the spar between Lancelot and Caulifla.
"Indeed," Galacta Knight replied, intently keeping track of the two fighters' moves. They watched as Lancelot rose his blades in attempt to block the attack.
Then, without warning...

"Howdy, dudes."

Looking up, Galacta was the first to notice.
"A child?!"
Acting fast, Goku flew in, his aura lighting up the adjacent area.
He was immediately in-between the boy and Caulifla, having blocked the ki with his arm.
He winced slightly, not showing any signs of pain.
Lancelot sheathed his weapons, sternly walking over to Belowski.
Once I'm front of the child, Galacta expected him to begin berating the boy. He looked to be about a teenager, at least compared to her.
But instead, Lancelot opened his mask, taking on a calm, yet serious demeanor, as if an authority figure.
"Young man," the knight started. "You shouldn't have done that; I apologize to say that what you have just done was an... unintelligent decision, to say the least. If he had not stepped in," Lancelot gestured to Goku. "you could--nay, you would have been seriously wounded, or even killed. Now I demand you explain yourself."

Jet
Fenrir Far East Base

Jet was the first to shoot up. "STOP HIDING AND--"
Upon realizing they weren't in the True Lab anymore, Jet reluctantly sheathed his sword.
Looking around, Jet...
...wasn't familiar with this area at all.
The young Ninja took note that only Silver was awake.
"Damn..." he muttered. Jet walked over to the nearest person to him, Frisk.
"Yo, Frisk. Get up. We need to move," he muttered softly, slightly shaking her arm. He turned around to Silver.
"I don't know where we are, and I'd say none of us do. But right now, we need to find that out."

Asta
Camelot

Climbing out of the rubble, Asta seized the Demon Dweller Sword, tearing the blade from the rocks it was trapped in.
Leaping, he avoided the shockwave with sheer physical power alone.
"Good idea," he said, in response to Weiss. Yes, he is capable of speaking normally.
Running forward, he took note of how Weiss could create these magical platforms, seemingly out of thin air.
"Maybe..." he thought, remembering his battle against Vetto.
He shook the thought off as the monster's feet were frozen, leaving Asta in a smirk.
"RAAAAAAH!"
He jumped, slashing the Demon Dweller Sword, putting a long gash in the thing's side. Hitting the ground, Asta jumped back up and slashed again, leaving another gash.
This process continued, until the ogre was covered in cuts.
Asta grinned, his smile soon breaking when the cuts regenerated.
"It's not working," he exclaimed, hitting the floor. "We need another strate--"
He was immediately cut short when the ogre swung his club, slamming Asta into the ground.
"Stay down," it boomed.
However, the moment it raised its club, Asta sprung from the rubble, scratched but overall okay.
"HEY, WHAT THE HELL?!" he said, more enraged than angry.
Yanking his sword from the rocks burying it, Asta hefted his weapon.
"YOU'RE GONNA REGRET THAT!!!"
He then summoned his grimoire again, drawing his second sword.
The massive Demon-Slayer Sword emerged from the black and red flames of the grimoire, as Asta gripped it firmly in his right hand.

"NOW COME ON!!! I'M NOT DONE YET!!!"

 

[Mokko]

Maxwell
Fenrir Far East Base
Maxwell had no idea where he was, but he wasn’t in a meadow anymore. He didn’t recall the room he now laid in, so it wasn’t a memory. What had happened?

He propped himself up on one elbow, and instantly recalled the memories from just a moment ago. What sadist had done that to him? He’d struggled for a very long time to push those thoughts into the very back of his mind, and now they were flooding back. It was painful. He wanted to tell himself that it was just pain- not emotion- but that only made it hurt worse.

For some reason, there was others in the room- the girl he’d tried to kill, and her idiotic friends. What nuisances…

His notebook was tucked under his forearm for some reason, and he had half a mind to create something to tear them all apart. The moment he moved his wrist, however, the memories continued to come. He winced. Happy thoughts… happy thoughts…”

He attempted to move again. This time, he didn’t recall any of those thoughts. He kept the negative thoughts aside as he shakily rose his arm, putting his pencil to the paper.

The result? A chocolate cake appeared beside him.

Not what he was hoping for.

He sat up, shaking his head to wake himself up a bit more.

Nanashi
Camelot Forest Edge
“Your kind words are most appreciated, Azula,” Nanashi stated. “If you’ll excuse me, I should probably get to contacting my demons, though. Being in this new environment must feel odd to them.”

With that, Nanashi began tapping away at his Smartphone, presumably talking to his demons.

Noah Kaiba
Camelot
Noah chuckled to himself as the guard he’d spoken to ran off to go and get Percival. Luckily, he wasn’t as foolish as some of the other individuals in Camelot. He could already imagine how things would have gone down if he’d spoken to some big shot- needless to say, there’d be some… cleanup to do.

The guard raced away, passing Lancelot as he did so.

“If you see a teal haired kid, tell him I’m going to get Percival as we speak!” he shouted frantically at the group of people as he passed. He disappeared around a corner at high speed.

Noah was quite happy with the way things had turned out. It was only a matter of time before Percival would be before him- and then, the king himself. Of course, he wouldn’t need to see the king if Percival gave him his cards directly- but with how foolish the knight was, that hardly seemed like a possibility.

“I’d ready your attack if I were you,” Noah said to his monster, feeling its presence in the air. “We’re going to do battle very soon.”

 

[Ariados twice]

Jay moved as fast as she was able. She snatched up the redhead. Alicia, meanwhile, heard Dex's cry for them to get out of there. "You heard him. MOVE." Alicia was prepared to be the last one to leave. If worst came to worst, her limited invulnerability would hopefully give her SOME protection.

 

[comic]

Frisk
Fenrir Far East - Unknown Location
Frisk opened her eyes slowly, already on the verge of waking, though Jet's shaking of her arm sped up the process, bringing her back to the conscious realm... or so she thought. It was pretty much impossible to tell with Gaster.
Then Jet started talking about finding out where they were as Maxwell got up, and for some reason or another, he generated a chocolate cake that appeared at his feet.
He seemed disappointed with it.
Frisk shook her head in response to Jet. "No." She spoke. "We need to make sure we're all on the same page before doing anything."

The child got to her feet, looking about, seeing Blaze as the only one still out- though not for long. Silver was also there, making Frisk nervous. It was possible this was yet another illusion by the doctor... it was nearly impossible to tell.
However, if Gaster truly was done with them, then that meant they were left with one other problem... Maxwell.

Darth Vader
Camelot - Forest Edge
The dark lord of the sith stood rigid at the edge of the forest clearing, staring calmly at the castle gates. The two guards there had taken notice of him, but both appeared too nervous to approach him. Vader was used to this.
He'd watched as Belowski wandered off, despite Negan's request that Vader "watch after him". Darth Vader cared little for that order, or the child.
The sith scowled. He'd only stayed back in order to get an idea of what was behind the castle walls. He'd used the power of the force itself to see everything within those walls. He'd seen every individual, viewed every detail within the stone bricks. He wanted to know every detail before entering himself.
Negan seemed to be under the impression that he was the 'leader' of their collective group, but that was far from the truth. Darth Vader had already peered into the minds of those around him, picked them apart on an emotional and mental level.

Azula's desired betrayal of Negan was expected, but completely foolish. She could just as easily kill Negan and be done with it. Nobody in their group was truly loyal to the man- they were just confused and needed to know what to do. Negan took advantage of that. Her reasoning to turn the others against him was a waste of time.
Vader's patience waned. He grew tired of standing here, and with the revelation of this "multiverse", he'd begun to grow anxious. If there was a multiverse with infinite possibilities, then that meant there was a universe where Padmé was still alive. If these fools within the castle knew anything about how to access this...

His impatience grew too much with the thought of Padmé crossing his mind. He'd do anything to bring her back. Anything.
The dark lord began to calmly stride toward the castle gate. The two guards nearly jumped in surprise as they saw him nearing, both clearly intimidated by the sith, and rightly so. The dark side of the force indulged an influence over those around him, enforcing fear and obedience.
Vader didn't need to say a word as the guards nervously made way for him as he strode past them, his black cape billowing behind him. He already knew where the throne room was, and if King Sonic couldn't do anything... perhaps this "Merlina" could.

He'd get his desire. No matter the cost. Padmé would return to him one way... or another.

 

[Shen: King of Digimon]

Name: YapYap THE DESTROYER
Location: Halo Universe: Balaho


Heyo, it’s ME. Now I know you UNCULTURED DOGS have like, NOOO idea who I am. I must say, i am TOTALLY offended by that. Acting like you’ve never seen an Unggoy before, Hmph! You guys need to crack open your history bookies, cause YapYap will be the biggest name in it!

You humans think you are soooo all that, with all your space bricks and floating guns. Makin’ fun of the way I breathe and bein’ all mean! Well, no longer! As the New king of all the Thickiest Grunts, i’mma spell a new age to-

“AIIIIIIYYYYYEEEEE!!!”

YapYap slipped on the moist floor of his quarters, mid writing in long declaration of...something. He rubbed his head and adjusted his crown, groaning as he did so. Several grunts came waddling to his chamber, as YapYap tried to seem like he fell on purpose.”

“Lord YapYap sir-“

“H-HEY whatcha doing there?!”

“There’s-“

“If this is about the food nipple thing, I meant to do that, okay!” YapYap defended.

“Uh...that’s not it big boss.” The grunt spec ops at the door said. “You know the dusty ol’ sangheli world which we say ‘I would NEVER want to go there’? Looks like the flood really, like REALLY wanted To go there. And uh....it’s taken Boss!”

“Hmmm...” YapYap stroked his gas mask. “Nah I don’t care what the dumb dumb elites do, they probably tore themselves up for ‘em.”

“B-but that’s just it Boss!” A minor said from behind the spec ops. “A ship from their is on a fast-fast To here! What are we gonna doooo?!”

“Calm down my grunty Goostos.” YapYap assured. “We are UNSTOPPABLE! Let them come! Prepare the defenses!”

“We...have defenses!”

“Like uhhhh I think.” YapYap scratched his head. “PREPARE THE DOGS OF WAR!!”

“Alrighty sir!” The two said hobbbling alway. The minor stopped a few steps away from the door and turned back.

“Uh...what was that about the food nipple?”

“JUST GOOOOO!”

 

[BurbleBurble]

The Hunter
Specter's Ship Mess Hall

The Holy Blade reverberated as it hit the cutter fiercely. A few sparks flew.

The ugly bugger had copied Cutman now, using one of his shears to counter the Hunter. Ugly didn't mean it was stupid, as it boasted his superiority. Of course, the Hunter doubted it could stand up to the combined forces of the three, even if Cutman was little more than support. Speaking of, where was the guy?

Gah, he didn't have time to consider as he ducked to avoid a cutter coming for his neck. He heard a shout for him as he did this- Cutman had something he needed bending? What the hell was he going to do with that?

It all didn't matter though, because in a matter of moments, the ship rumbled, and the Hunter was airborne. And it all went black.

....
He was in a medic's tent now. A glancing shot to the side placed him here. "Good, your doing well." Said the treating medic. "We've removed the bullet and have stitched you up. Though we may have...troubling news."

"...Troublin' news?" The Hunter asked, in a half delirious state. Whatever sedative they had put on him to dull the pain was having it's pull on him. Though he could feel the injury, ever faintly, on the side of his leg.

"Well, sir, your showing some mild symptoms of a rare disease. Due to it's rarity, there's very little on it, scarcely even a name." The medic spoke in a hushed, worried tone. He didn't sound very confident in his speech.

The Hunter took a heaving breath, before speaking again. "Alright. How do I go about curing it?" He stifled a cough once he finished.

"You see sir, that is the issue. There's not much of a cure..."

Almost invigorated with life, the Hunter shot up. "What're ya tryin' to say there's no cure?!" This damnable war had already taken him for several months now. He had loyalties to his country, but he was about reading to sail off back to his family. And now he had some deadly, incurable disease? He wasn't about to stand for it.

The medic seemed a tad surprised at the Hunter's incredulous state, especially when he was still recovering from the sedative. Still, he remained as professional as possible. "Sir, there's no standard cure for it. But...perhaps...well, it's all rumors."

"I don't care if it's a rumor or not. Tell me if there's a cure."

The medic once again spoke in a hushed voice. "Have you heard of the city of Yharnam? It's an odd place, but apparently a cure for the Black Plague came from there. A cure of all ails. That may be the only true way to cure your disease. Though I will warn you..."

"Then I'm off." The Hunter spent no time in getting off his bed. The sting of his leg injury could be felt plainly now, but it was worthless to dwell over. He had no time to waste.

"Sir, you shouldn't be walking on such an injury! And Yharnam is said to have long since gone terribly...well, mad! The land's no longer a safe...And you shan't leave your post!" The medic's words fell on deaf ears. He was already half out the door, when he realized he had never even asked where to go to find this famed city, but as the Hunter turned about, the medic had been replaced by an elderly old man, bound to a wheelchair. Half of his right calve missing, replaced with a wooden peg.

"You're sure in a fine haze about now, but don't think too hard about all this."
....
He awoke with a jolt. He hadn't been out for long in those glimpses of the past, but the way his recent memories were getting muddled in them was unsettling. Was the insight he gained truly what blocked his memories?...

A low horn kept sounding out again and again. The lights flickered on and off, in hues of scarlet.

And the faker was gone. As was his blade. Damn, it didn't steal it, did it? A creaking of metal was heard above him. He glanced up for a moment. The blade had somehow ended up through the bloody ceiling. Well, for a moment. It was sliding out of position.

He rolled to the side, as the blade landed where he was a moment before in a loud crash.

"The hell happened?" He asked, not exactly expecting a response. Did Gari do this?...No. He would've attacked first, no doubt. Nevermind. The mimic already used it's surprise tactic. They wouldn't be so easily deterred again. The Hunter picked himself up, dusted himself off, and heaved up the blade. It had served him well, but perhaps the mobility of the saw was what he needed again.

The Holy Blade returned to his coat, and the trick cleaver returned to his hands. It was getting a bit tiring lugging it about in such a manner. Though if he remembered correctly, he was running low on ammo...

The Chief's voice called out. "Oi, Chief. I'm alright. You any clue what happened?...Cutman?" Hopefully the automaton hadn't been blown to smithereens.

There was a great shouting, however. An unmistakable voice saying it. "Slayer..." He didn't really sound too happy. Sounded like a problem to tackle once the three regrouped.

Eileen the Crow and the Darkbeast(s)
Central Yharnam

One Darkbeast in central Yharnam was surprising. Two was very much surprising. However, much to her delight, it seemed that it was being fought by...well, a Hunter! Perhaps even two!

And the kids were busying themselves destroying the first Darkbeast- as it bucked around, flailing limbs and failing to throw off Dex. A blast to it's face, it's thick skull cracking further, jaw hanging from one side. The heat bombarded it's hobbling leg, ancient bone melting away, almost boiling. And Akame's attack on it's other foot was successful, further disabling the creature. Clearly, the Darkbeast only hung on by it's last threads of strength it could muster. One good last hit to shatter the skull, weakened by Alicia and Bakugou, would end it's miserable, long life.

Eileen would pity it, but it did attack them first...

And besides, this new one seemed far fresher. It sparked as Trevor held it down, Sypha's assault helped stop it's electrifying. But clearly, it was rearing for a burst itself- the poor other "hunters" would be fried. But not if Eileen had anything to say about it. In a burst of smoke, it's head recoiled as a bullet slammed into it.

"Oi, seems y'need a bit of help here." She told the two, her sword slicing at the the beast's leg, briefly stopped by the Quicksilver bullet. "Allow me."

One of the kids shouted out a warning to get away from the Darkbeasts. "What'dya mean kid?" Eileen told him back, focusing perhaps too much on the beast. "We got it handled, no worries!" Even still, Alicia came and swept the newcomers away, leaving Eileen alone with a quickly recovering darkbeasts. "Aye, the hell're ya doin?" This forced Eileen to move away from the Darkbeast, before it fully recovered.

Oh well, there was more fight in her left, and no doubt the ancient creature either, as it screamed out once again, freed from Trevor's grasp.

Raiden and Jetstream Sam
Camelot Castle Throne Room

The Tony's group was being escorted out, leaving Negan's group behind. Raiden said his thanks to the king, but he also got one last glimpse of Sam before leaving.

He was smiling back.

...Cocky bastard. He knew that he'd get away with this, and he'd keep getting away with it. For a while.

Never mind all that. Thinking about Sam just made Raiden irrationally angry. What he did in Chicago proved exactly who he was- the type of guy who'd drag anything up and anyone under the bus to get exactly what he wanted. Monsoon was just a victim of his works- though he was quite ready to fight in front of the World Marshall building, it seemed.

He and Sam would duel. It was fate at this point. But what about his new buddies? That Negan guy clearly knew him, but was he just another stepping stool in Sam's path? Didn't seem to be anyone special. There was that tattooed, pale man as well...No, this was what Sam wanted! To get in his head and squirm about. Bastard.

"I'd like to say that Negan guy is bad for even being associated with Sam." Raiden told the group- he wasn't exactly talking to anyone in particular, just making a general statement. He did accidentally drag them into his fight when the rogue samurai struck. "As you can tell, me and Sam aren't exactly buddies. But if I've learned one thing about Sam during all of this- he's a manipulator. He's willing to step on anyone's head to get what he wants. Point is, don't be suspicious of who Sam's travelling with." He shrugged after saying that though.

"...Not until they do something to make them suspicious."

...And Sam knew he got away with it, as he smiled to King Sonic. His arms folded, mouth curled in a smirk.

"Well, I've gotten what I wanted out of this excursion. I'll be returning to our little camp outside...I'll tell them everything here's good."

Kiran
Camelot Castle Halls

"T-that's not a very good excuse." Kiran told Bro, his tone slightly faltering. Bro was either stupid, or very cocky. Kiran opted for the later: Bro didn't seem very unversed in greek gods, but it wasn't really time for a disagreement on how to approach a greek goddess. He'd have to make sure to approach himself later and apologize for Bro's brashness...

...He really didn't wake up this morning assuming by the end of it he'd be considering how to approach greek goddesses. Funny how the world worked.

To make matters even stranger, it seemed Bro had sussed out what exactly was following them- but pointed the sword at him. He nearly jumped out of his skin as a voice spoke behind him. But not just anyone...a skeleton. The one he briefly spotted in the throne room. Honestly...it hadn't even surprised him at this point. Skeletons, gods, full fledged cyborgs, talking animals...Who knew, probably gonna run into an alternate of himself at some point. He honestly was a bit resigned by this point.

The skeleton didn't like Cal either. What a surprise. It didn't seem anyone was a fan of Cal, not the king, not the advisor, and not the skeleton. Halloween attraction or not, Kiran would agree with all three.

...Oh, the skeleton was asking him a question now. His opinion on Cal.

"Oh...Well, yeah. It's creepy looking for starters. And, uh..." He glanced at Cal for a moment. Did the puppet glance back, however?...He wasn't sure. "I'm fairly sure it filled my head with violent thoughts. I'd like to think I'm not a naturally violent person...I mean, maybe I'm wrong? But I'd like to blame it on the puppet."

Sarah, Flamebringer, and Samus
Mountainside

A horse mounted figure drew closer in the distance. Shimmering in the evening light. It glared at Samus, dressed out in regalia, glaring at her. Purple eyes aglow. Whoever it was, it gave Samus bad vibes. She glared back from beneath her visor, before retreating back to the cave.

Sarah and the Flamebringer had, alongside Robin, Lucina, and Lora, been observing Jin's cooking. Truly an artisan, working hard to perfect the meal. Sarah had taken off her helmet to take in the simmering meal- It didn't quite smell like anything she knew. Not beef, not chicken. Exotic was a good term for it. But she was interrupted by Samus's return.

"I think we've got a hostile approaching through the treeline."

"Hostile? Like a monster?"

"It looked human, but it's eyes didn't. Better safe than sorry."

Sarah got up, putting her helmet back on- and the Flamebringer broke from observing Jin's cooking, her interest piqued in this approaching enemy.

As the three went outside, the figure was only getting closer. "Ah crap." Sarah lamented. "I'm going with monster. Anyone with pauldrons that big is bad news." The Flamebringer was silent. Another foe to fell.

"If they come, we shall take them."
-----
Priscilla, Jackson, Quint, Aisha
Goldenwalk Streets

One of the lens cracked on a soldier's helm as Jackson landed a good shot. The soldier flinched, but quickly recovered. "Bulletproof lens...Of course." He couldn't keep this up forever...And Priscilla was faring worse. The shotgun spread made it impossible to hit direct shots in the eyes.

And she was out of shots. "Damn it," Priscilla said, as she rolled out of the way from a slew of laser blasts. This wa

Lucario, however, was doing quite well. A kick to the head pierced armor far better than a bullet would. The Soldiers were disoriented by the doubles he produced- and were certainly not expecting kicks to the head. They fell, dazed by the sudden hit. Jackson had noticed this- and had formulated a plan.

"Hey, Lucario, toss me one of those guns, could you?" He asked, as he weaved around blasts of the soldier he had been shooting at. "Y'know, whenever you get around to it."

The Herosquad duo was lucky they only had to deal with two- Rocket, Koji, and Thor were handling themselves far better.

Sadly, it would all be naught if Quint couldn't stop that railgun. Aisha nervously looked on, trying to think of something. "Wait- your working against gravity, right?"

"Well yeah, how does that help though?"

"Don't work against it- work with it."

"I...never thought of that."

With a quick change of focus, the railgun came clattering down. "Huh. It worked!" The four armed soldier was taken off guard, attempting to pick it back up. And then turned his head towards Aisha and Quint. He didn't look happy, and not just because he had his helmet on.

He pulled out two knifes. And his razor sharp mechanical limbs shone in the street light.

"...Uh oh."

Commander Cecil
Goldenwalk Streets

"What do you mean your force has been crumpled by an overweight man with a stupid accent?" Cecil spoke, quite upset at such a turn of events.

"He came and just...pummeled us. He left a crater in the earth..." The grunt spoke weakly over the comms. "We've got several injuries, and the mecha-scorpion has been damaged beyond repair..."

Cecil sighed in frustration. "Recoup at gate setup if you can. We don't need our technology falling into enemy hands."

"Sir, yes sir." The soldier responded back, the comm channel cutting off.

"This is going poorly." Cecil told his troopers. "We too will recoup back at the Gate setup. We'll need Elidocorc's strength, and the other crystal retriever. I don't believe anyone knows the gates location, if they hadn't been interrogated. Let's make haste."

And as the troop departed, Cecil received another call. "We're engaging a group of meta humans, an anthropomorphic dog, and raccoon." Cecil didn't even flinch. He had heard weirder.

"Don't let up on your assault. They are a threat to our operation, deal with them accordingly." Cecil cut off the comms this time. His men were good. He had no doubts in their skill.

No doubts at all.

"Why would a man like me need an army..." Líf repeated the words of Stain. His demeanor changed little. "A king may be a king, but a king cannot rule alone. No matter how strong one is, one cannot be everywhere at once. An army is always necessary to keep the populaces and enemies in check." He left his hand extended, as if he were very much expecting Stain to take it.

"Sharp one, allow me to ask you a question. Why would a man like you be alone? You'd be far stronger with allies. Is this not what we desire? Strength through alliance." Though Líf's definition of alliance was a little more forceful than some may of considered.

Grima
Ultra Space

"So that's the power Monado jail holds, huh?" Grima said. "Impressive party trick, Malos." Stopping a powerful attack was quite a feat. This Malos guy seemed to have a right to such playful-ness if he we strong enough to do that, not to mention his barriers. Seemed the time to finish things was nigh.

Grima didn't lay off his assault- in fact, he intensified it. The Rexcalibur tome spewed ever more frost and ice as the pages became brittle, and began to disappear into nothingness. "Come on now, yield, crystal being...Hey skeleton, you want to help us or what?"

He referred to Papyrus. He may of been passive, but maybe this show of power would convince him otherwise. Maybe the skeleton had all the strength they truly needed to keep down the great beast...

...But Grima didn't wager on it.

Yharnam
Trevor's head raised to see a kid running at him and the Darkbeast. "Hey, the hell are you-"
"YOU NEED TO GET OFF IT! PLEASE!"
"Listen to him, Trevor!" Sypha said.
"Alright, then!" Trevor quickly unwound the Morningstar from the beast's neck, moving into a stand... before he was shaken clear off of it. The vampire hunter hit the ground with a thud, letting out a loud gasp of air as he hit the ground. "That's gonna hurt in the morning..."

The Wilds, The Cliff
Keda deferred to Erza's suggestion. "Well, on my end... I'm a hunter. I'm skilled with a spear, a bow and a knife. I have Alpha, as well - my loyal friend." As he said this, Keda slowly pet the resting wolf.

The Wilds, The Tundra
The Nomad nodded, allowing himself to be taken inside. The lone rock was left alone, picking up the wand and moving towards a rock wall.

Camelot Castle, Throne Room
"Oh, no. We have plenty of room." Sonic said. "Just so long as you keep the fighting to the dueling grounds."
"Sir Percival! Where are-"
A guard suddenly burst into the room, apparent panic on his face. Sonic, Merlina and Percival all turned to look at him.
"Ah, er... My apologies, my liege!"
"What's up?" Sonic asked.
"The prisoner we arrested earlier today... he's escaped! He's demanding an audience with Sir Percival, and is threatening to use one of those monsters of his if he can't get it!"
"I'll give him one better." Sonic said, throwing off his cloak. "Where is he?"
"Th-The training grounds!"
Before the cloak even touched the ground, Sonic had bolted off and returned, dropping the kid onto the ground. "Hey, kid. I heard you decided to break out of jail. Not a smart move, if I say so myself."

Camelot Castle, Interior
"Ideally, we'll be able to get rooms with other members of our group." Tony said. "Though if Snake and Raiden sleep together, being close, and you two sisters do as well..."
"Counting myself and Sans, we've got an uneven amount of people." Shantae pointed out. "At least one of us will have to sleep with someone unfamiliar. Probably me..."

Camelot Castle, Dining Hall
"I, well..." Joseph stammered. "...try the steak and fried vegetables. It's good."
Serena nodded. "Thank you for your hospitality!" she said with a tinge of irony in her voice. She moved over to where the food had been collected, and marveled at the selection. She plucked out a bread roll, taking a daint bite of it. "This is good!" Looking over, she spotted the steak Joseph recommended. After a moment's deliberation, she took a plate and plopped a piece of the stake onto it, as well as some mashed potatoes, another bread roll and the fried veggies.

Camelot, Mountainside
Jin quickly put his dish to the side, the group following Samus out. Robin and Lucina looked at him, and then each other.
"You thinking what I'm thinking?" Robin asked.
"Indeed... He reminds me of Walhart." Lucina said, narrowing her eyes.
"Walhart who?" Lora asked, having overheard.
"Walhart the Conqueror."
"With a name like that, I'm going to assume he's an evil dickbag." Lora said, turning back to the man. "So, who's this?"
"You may call me King Arthur." The voice of the man boomed with a strange energy. "The ruler of Camelot."
"Wait, so you're the king of this place?" Lora asked. "Thank god! We've been looking for someone, and-"
"Lora."
Jin raised his hand, pointing at the horse with his sword. "Look at that horse. And the smoke it and this Arthur are producing."
Lora understood what Jin was saying. "It's just like those monsters from earlier...!"
Lucina prepared her blade as Robin clutched his tome. "What do you want?" Robin asked, on guard.
"More soldiers." the King replied. "More bodies for the Knights of the Underworld. More DEATHS."
"So... you're killing us, then. Great." Lora raised her fists into battle position as Jin moved into his posture as well.
King Arthur rode right towards the group, Deathcalibur drawn. "Show me your mettle! Show me the strength to live!"

Dreamland, Green Greens (Infinity Rift)
"I don't know..." Maple shook her head. "We were just given your name. We might be able to find them, though. Do you have a Reality Between Reality here? We could use its Gaia Crystal to look for them."

Catgirl's Universe
"I... don't use weapons?" Haze chuckled. "My staff is all I need."

Specter's Ship
"Found an opening!" Hope said, flying towards a vent. She slipped inside. "I'm going i-"
BANG
Wasp was suddenly slammed by the Omnidroid's interior, as what felt like a massive blast hit it. If Hope had been outside, it would have taken her out in one shot. "Scott? What was that?"
"RIP AND TEAR! I'M GOING TO RIP AND TEAR YOU TO FUCKING SHREDS!"
The Omnidroid began to shake about. Taking a deep breath and steeling herself, Hope flew further in, making her way towards the nerve center of the mech. She didn't shoot anything yet - she wanted to remain unnoticed as long as she could.

"I'm here. Not in one piece."
Cut Man slowly limped forwards. His left leg was sparking, his right eye was flickering, and his right arm was-
Wait, where was it?
Oh, there it is. He's holding it.
...
HE'S HOLDING IT.
Cut Man's right arm would no longer be of use to him, completely severed. At least he lost the arm on the fritz instead of his good one...

Far East, Fenrir Base, Training Room
"Man, it's been a while since I've seen someone do something like that..."
In the corner of the room, a kid no older than 17 walked in with large, bushy hair, a white shirt, black pants and short blue cape. The red wristband was around his right wrist as well. "Soma and Kota told me about you. Rick, right? The name's Lenka Utsugi."
"I wasn't aware you were back." Tsubaki stated.
"Just returned." Lenka reported. "The mission went well. I already sent in the report, but we got three Vajra cores."

Sequin Land, Risky's Ship
Boring? Nonono, Risky was DROOLING at the thoughts racing through her head.
"...I wanna eat a troll..."

Ultra Space
"You call THAT an attack?!"
Cooler had flown above Necrozma, charging a death ball in the air while Necrozma was battered by Malos and Grima. Plague's spirits quickly moved in, holding Necrozma in place. "THIS is an attack! HAH!" Cooler shouted, launching his death ball right at the crystal being. The island cracked and shattered into pieces as Necrozma was sent straight through it by the emperor.

Far East, City of Mercy
Silver stood up quickly. Reassured by the familiar gravity, he soared into the air as the others awoke. Good, it seemed they were with him again.
But as Silver looked around...
No. Nonono. This was NOT his world. It couldn't be!
Yeah, no... He had been around most of the ruins, but he didn't recognize skyscrapers like that.
...he would have rathered being home. He could get in contact with Shard and von Schlemmer, figure things out.
He felt a familiar energy as well. Looking down, he saw the Time Stone next to him. "Huh." Silver pulled the stone to him, making it vanish once again. "That's convenient..."
Everyone but Blaze was up now... and it didn't seem like she was waking up.
"Wait... what the...?" Silver flew over towards Blaze, landing beside her. "Hey. Hey, Blaze! Are you alright? Blaze!"

She wasn't waking up, but she was shaking, as if trapped in a nightmare.

*You didn't SAVE her.

 

[Pro Hero Dekiru]

Jet
Far East, Fenrir Base

Not noticing what was wrong with Blaze, Jet noticed Maxwell get up. He approached the sitting kid, his fists clenched.
"All right," he started, in a calm, albeit stern voice. "I'm gonna sympathize with you for a second. I'm sure I have an idea of what that madman showed you, and I'm sorry you got involved in our mess. Even so, that doesn't make amends for what happened in that lab."
Jet crossed his arms, his sword shining on his back.
"So you're going to explain yourself. Why did you just attack us out of nowhere? What the hell was your goal there?"


UA Students, Soul, Ash, Young Link
Yharnam

"Good," Midoriya thought. "Alright, now here comes the easy part."
He turned. "SOUL! GET AWAY FROM IT!!!"
The black figure gave him a thumbs-up, before retreating with his bow to fight the other one.
Now they were all alone.
Just Izuku Midoriya and this hulking thing.
"Alright, now you're gonna pay," he said, preparing his fist.
"I've got no time to stall," Izuku thought, beginning to break into a run. "It's now or never! I'm not going to get another chance!"
He ran forward, a trail if green lightning behind him. "I'll aim it over its head; the windstorm should push it down into that already-destroyed building; I need to keep the collateral damage at a minimum!"
The ninth holder of One for All jumped into the air, his power sending him higher than any normal person could reasonably jump He was over its head, closing in fast, almost like a bullet. Midoriya clenched his fist, the power ready to burst at this point.
"ONE HUNDRED PERCENT DETROIT..."
He brought his fist down.

"SMASH!!!"

The energy building up behind his fist exploded outward, surging down like a pressurized air cannon.
In the form of a downward punch, the full majesty of One for All was blasted at the Darkbeast, the thin air around Midoriya swirling together and adding to the pushing force.
"Please... work!" he thought, immediately feeling his arm break from the force.

 

[Godjacob]

Name: Hiro, Kale, Keyblade Trinity Squadron, Omnidroid
Location: Specter's Ship

"STOP!!!"​

The Trinity Squadron, with the motion led by their leader Malcolm and followed by members Andrew & Renee, all performed a stop spell simultaneously as Kale began her explosive wave. Before it could reach any of them, time came to a stop as they planned to use this time to get to Specter and get to safety.

Though as they moved to him, they had already seen he was in the middle of saving himself, so they moved to get a safe distance back as quickly as they could while the time had been frozen for the limited period. Once they reached such safety, the explosion went off as the trio all felt a rumble. A rumble that would lead to a room that would be all but obliterated with nothing but charred steel and scorch marks to decorate as everything that had not fled or found a means to avoid the blast was reduced to dust.

Once it passed, the trio glanced upon each other before Malcolm spoke up. “Well, seemed the girl was even more dangerous than anticipated.”
“And our new possible simian ally values a possible walking hazard why again?” Andrew asked.

“Probably with the belief he can control her power. Or something, either way her essence might be useful….” Renee pointed out but Malcolm was quick to shut that down.

“No, at this point securing an alliance takes priority. Doing that would stir his wrath given his interest in her. Irregardless for now we need to regroup to him and then…” Malcolm started to say, before each of the trio’s Keyblades shinned a bit as Kyuseishu seemed to send the trio a signal through it. One they understood immediately as Malcolm turned to the pair.

“You two go. I’ll handle this.” Malcolm said as the two other members gave a nod and worked to head back to Specter while Malcolm went off on his own.

In the room Kale stood in place in her freshly made crater, the Berserker panted as the attack managed to cause the destructive force she envisioned. Not without a cost, as that blast expanded the last of her energy, and gradually her bulging muscles began to retract as her frame had grown less & less imposing by the second. Soon enough, Kale no longer resembled the monster she was, and with her power gone so to had any strength as she wobbled in place. Drained and weak, and with a meek sigh she fell flat on her face on the ground unconscious.

Before long, with her body prone and a hole blown through the ceiling of the room, the vacuum of space worked its magic and worked to suck her up where she'd be left prone and helpless to the void of the stars.

-----​

The Omnidroid thankfully, and perhaps before any fatal damage had been done, released Ant-Man as it allowed the giant to fall onto the floor with a thud. The reason for this had not been one of mercy but rather a response to this sudden charge by its main target; whose blood pressure & heart rate shot up as he appeared to gain this sudden boost. One that was enough to actually rip off one of its metal pincers and use it to stab into its arm.

On impulse it retracted said arm to move it away from further harm, though before it had a chance to retaliate a shockwave hit the room as the Omnidroid had been sent flying and crashed against a wall as the force of the explosion spread to their area as well. Thankfully, its armor had made it more than sturdy to withstand the force of the explosive shockwave. Moments after it was driven to the wall, it worked to right itself back up as it turned to the Doomslayer once more as its mission was clear; unaware of the opening this would allow a certain tiny ally to sneak inside it. Either way, it would launch its arms forward and try to slam twin pincers towards the Doomslayer to try to crash and grasp him all at once.

-----
Earlier stumble aside caused from whatever force made that eruption through the ship, Hiro found his footing and marched on all the same. Hiro had to get to the others if Kale had indeed been involved with that rumble and it only served to drive his pace to quicken all the more.

In spite of the fatigue, in spite of the lack of magic Hiro would find some way anyway to save his allies here.

Name: Caulifla, Yang, Azula
Location: Camelot

“Gah! W-what the…!?” Caulifla called out, as before she fired her energy blast only for some random guy to pop out of nowhere right in the way. Fortunately it appeared the other Saiyan appeared between them to deflect the blast. Though before Caulifla had a chance to question this Universe 7 Saiyan she flew over to Belowski and got right in his face.

“Hey! What was the big idea there!? I was in the middle of an awesome fight!” Caulifla yelled at Belowski as she had been clearly annoyed with his random intrusion onto her spar. Caulifla didn’t even care that her opponent Lancelot himself moved to confront him as she glared with those emerald eyes of hers while her hands rested on her hips.

------​

“Well I don’t think me or Ruby would be against you sharing a room with us. Least I wouldn’t mind and I know sis likes you.” Yang said as she had made the offer to Shantae to share rooms with them given she seemed to be the odd one out.

Given Yang was pretty easy going about things and Ruby loved Shantae’s animal forms she figured it was an ideal match.

------​

With Nanashi busy on his smart phone, that left her with a window to work with as he’d be a little busy and Bowser was all by himself. The beast could probably snap her in half with one hand, but he appeared to not be the sharpest around or his ego got in the way of that.

So, Azula walked over by Bowser though she simply appeared to be relaxing herself as she laid against a nearby tree to the Koopa King. Bowser in turn had paid the girl no mind, though figured that for someone Negan seemed to have this worry over he expected a lot more.

Some scrawny girl gave him the scare? If this was true he had even more reason to doubt that human’s leadership. Something he could not help but express.

“Have no idea what Negan sees in you to single you out. A toothpick doesn’t impose anything to anyone with a backbone.” Bowser said without much care how Azula took it, but in truth inwardly Azula let a smirk but managed to masterfully give off a neutral if not annoyed expression.

“Look I don’t know how Negan works. If anything that says more about him than me, but hey maybe it is wise to just go along with what he says. We’ve already seen what happens if you happen to ask any questions.” Azula replied though said nothing more as Bowser scoffed at her words. Though this slight doubt about Negan which he had already been on the fence about following would only further plant in his head.

-----------
Name: Erza
Location: The Wilds

Erza figuratively rolled her eyes as she was not one to miss the blatant attempt to hit on her, but she decided to answer his question all the same. Might be ideal for team building if all parties here knew how each other’s skills worked. Specially since Keda had graciously displayed his & his partner’s talents.

“As I have made clear before, I am a Mage. Specifically a Requip Mage; which allows me to tap into my own personal magic subspace to pull out magic suits of armors & weapons of my possession to change into at will. Each one having a unique ability for a different situation.” Erza explained to Rex as she turned to him.

“And what about you? You seem to be some sort of conjurer given what I have seen but please clarify for us.” Erza said as she had given Rex the floor to share his skills he had been just so humble about.

----------
Name: Akame & Bakugo
Location: Yharnam

Akame immediately backpedled upon Midoriya’s request as she dashed with high speeds away from the monstrous demon while Bakugo looked on with a bit of confusion as it appeared his rival had some sort of plan in mind.

What the hell are you up to you Deku…?

"SMASH!!!"​

Bakugo got his answer as immediately he had been knocked away by the back current of Midoriya’s full power punch as he unleashed a powerful shockwave that reminded Bakugo all too well of their Hero/Villain exercise back at the start of their first year.

And as Bakugo looked on, Akame noted that his fists clutched once more. As that familiar feeling of frustration rose once more as he saw the display of Deku’s abilities once more with his teeth grit. Something Akame seemed to notice as she looked on.

I don’t know what their story is, but I do know that look of envy when I see it. This could be troubling if we survive this…

-----------
Name: Ogremon
Location: Catgirl Universe

“Bah, the only weapon I need is already set.” Ogremon said with pride as he displayed his large club for these spandex wearing weirdos to see as he had been well prepared for…whatever was to come next. He didn’t care what it was, so long as he managed to get back home he’d go through anything or anyone with no hesitation.

-----------
Name: Toph, Lucario
Location: Goldenwalk

“G-got it!” Toph said, as she had heard of Logan’s plan and already had felt the vibrations of his charge towards him. Though while this handled saving her it appeared that the Spider guy had been left alone which was something the Earthbender worked to correct.

Just before Logan tackled her away, she shifted her heel to the side and produced a path towards Spider-Man as she manipulated the ground and aimed to shift her along the ground as if this section was a slide to try and move her away from the danger section of the tunnel.

------
Lucario glanced down at one of the guns left by the one of the down soldiers as he was asked to give it to him. Naturally, these humans needed better weapons in a never ending escalation, but regardless the Aura Pokemon held his tongue did as he had been asked and kicked the gun over to him before he moved to kick another soldier in the jaw.

-----------
Name: Katsu
Location: Dream Land, Green Greens (Infinity Rift)

"Well, um...how do I put this, there isn't really a hub per say to navigate the Infinity Rift. Though Master Kairi or Yen Sid would know more about that then I would." Katsu replied in response to Maple's question as he himself had no idea of a way to oversea things within the Infinity Rift.

If they had such a skill, then they'd have no need to tail the Forsaken directly to navigate.

"If uh...all you had was a name how did you know to come here to find him specifically?" Phoenix asked, still a bit nerved by the events of today but given that explanation offered he figured it was a good enough thing to ask.

 

[Shen: King of Digimon]

Name: Belowski
Location: Camelot

Belowski felt a gush of wind as Goku intercepted Claufia’s attack. Upon his entry, the sudden wind burst knocked Belowski on his behind, although he didn’t seem to mind. The crowd looked confused and anxious, unaware of how the situation would go. As Lancelot approached, taking of his helmet, he explained the consequences of actions, demanding why Belowski did what he did. Belowski, sat up on the ground with the ever so relaxed eyes.

“Nah man, it’s cool. The universe lead me here like a leaf in the cosmic wind. You guys looked like you were missing your Zen, man, so the fireworks were the universe’s sign.”

That was when Claufia came right up to him, teeth grinding with anger. “Hey! What was the big idea there!? I was in the middle of an awesome fight!”

Belowski drew a big question mark in his head. He heardnof holographic fights being fun because no one was getting hurt and it required strategy. But real life battling? He hadn’t heard of that being fun before. Belowski looked from claufia, to Goku, to Lancelot.

“Ohhh, I see. So fighting is your zen, and I totally acted like a party pooper. Pretty unchill of me.
My bad, dudes. Well at least it’s mostly your zen.”

Belowski cocked his head looking at claufia. Despite her hot blooded attitude, the young duelist noticed something...missing from her. Like as if one of her lights inside had gone missing. Belowski couldn’t pinpoint what it was for the short time he saw of her, but one thing was for sure: she wasn’t all there.


Name: Rex Raptor
Location: Wilds

So she can have ANY armor that she can make right? Even...dinosaur armor? That would be wicked! Oh OH! Red eyes armor! Or maybe...leather armor. Shut up Rex! Keep it cool, she’s asking you a question!

Rex looked left and right after Erza had asked about his ability. He then snickered and winked to Keda, as if to say ‘watch this.’ He got a mischevious look on his face as he grabbed a flaming stick from the campfire.

“65 million years ago...” Rex said in an overly dramatic voice, waving his stick around. “Giant creatures roamed the earth. Big, Deadly, and POWERFUL Dinos! They ruled the earth before the time of humans or Duelists. Then suddenly...BAM KAPOOW!”

He smashed his flaming stick into the cave wall, burn marks and embers staining The wall. Little flakes of flame fluttered down from the impact as smoke plumed.

“Meteors, rocks from space pelted the planet, extinguishing them from our world along with nearly every other species! And they were wiped out!”

He smashed the stick on the burning flames of the wall, extinguishing the flame as he spoke of wiping out. Dropping the stick and taking a dramatic pause, Rex flipped around.

“But I, Rex Raptor, have the power to summon these light titans to the earth once more! The rulers of the world come back to eat, stomp, and terrorize!”

Rex tossed the stick into the campfire, a flare of flame rising up as Rex struck a pose, his fingers curved like a t-Rex and his teeth bared.



Name: Pipotrons
Specter’s Ship

As kale was thrown out into the cold vacuum of space, the safeguards to drop down an emergency shielding failed, primarily due to Kale’s damage to the nearby energy pylon. As her body drifted, suddenly, a stream of energy game from the nearby space station. It shot a tractor beam all around Kale, slowly dragging her toward the station’s hangar bay whilst putting her in temporary stasis.

.....


Pipotron Meta came floating back in a hurry Krak still stop busy to even look at him. G and j turned to look at the floating Pipotron, Meta seemingly very frustrated.

“T-They just kept attacking, Gari!” Meta ranted. “I couldn’t-“

“The goal wasn’t to engage anyway.” J interrupted. “Disable the gate.”

Everyone else, including the busy Krak whirled over to look at J, as if he were crazy. G scratched her head while meta’s eyes began to look about panicked.

“D-D-Disable, Gari?!”

“You heard me the first time. I want to see them with my own eyes.”

Krak snickered. “Kekeke! I know exactly how you feel! Gate disabled!”


.........


With Cutman and the fragmented team Hiro, Meta was nowhere to be found. It seemed as though the scuffled had come to an end as soon as Kale gave them an opening.

Suddenly, a wall that was there in the background had faded into nothingness, seemingly a holographic projection. Behind it revealed a circle on the ground, an energy pattern revolving upwards around it like a tube. There was no mistaking it. It was a teleportation device.

 

[Ariados twice]

Alina stepped back as the ground seemed to move on its own. She soon realized it was the blind girl's doing. She kept pace just behind it. Just in case this action was not enough to get Y out of the way.

Batboy sighed. "Feel free to occupy yourselves somehow while you wait. Please don't demolish the Lair. And ask before you touch Something if it's safe. There ARE explosives in here, after all."

"Happy." Alicia said, turning to the Exceed on her shoulder. "Check on him, then get the others together. I'm probably the only one here with even a bit of invulnerability. If the fox has a form that can withstand a powerful electric shock or absorb it, tell him to stay put. That might help minimize any damage." Happy nodded before flying over to Trevor, who had a rough landing. "You okay?"

 

[comic]

Master Chief
Specter's Ship - Hallway
John made sure he was steadied, checking his blood pressure and adrenaline levels... All were fine. He was in mostly perfect condition, all things considered. He'd just have to ignore that pain in his ribs. He looked toward Hunter as he spoke, then to Cutman, who appeared to be holding his arm. He didn't seem overly perturbed by it, and as far as the Chief understood robotics, Cutman was still relatively 'fine', though he was clearly barely holding together. He'd suffered far too much damage.

He gave Cutman a nod. "Are you opera-" He was cut off as a roar echoed down the smoky hall. Screaming belonging to the Slayer. Not fearful, but pure rage. Their opponent seemed to have disappeared, so they were close to their destination now. Kale and the Slayer should be just ahead. "Let's move." He ordered quickly. They had no time to spare. Once regrouped, they could formulate a strategy. John was getting a feeling this adventure was nearing completion.

However, a wall seemingly disappeared behind Cutman. A holographic projection John should have noticed before... He probably would have if Cortana had been with him. Damn... She really was a lot of help, and he was seriously beginning to miss her. He quickly used his suit's systems to do a rough scan as he saw the strange spherical energy pattern- and it was a helluva lot like a slipspace reading. Some kind of teleportation grid, and that was working perfectly for the team, considering his suit was no getting a warning of low oxygen levels, dropping incredibly rapidly.

"Damnit." He muttered. Their altitude had picked up past Earth's atmosphere at this point, and it seemed the explosion that had rocked the ship had torn open a hole through the hull. "Change of plans. Hunter, Cutman, head for the circle." He gestured toward it the teleportation device. "Now. No time to explain. I'll be with you shortly."
Hunter couldn't survive in the vacuum of space. That much was obvious. Cutman was just far too injured. Of course, this device could be a trap, but if it lead to somewhere with more oxygen, the Hunter could hold off for Chief's arrival. With that order given, John took off at a sprint, blurring past the two individuals as he made his way to the cafeteria.

Doomslayer
Specter's Ship - Cafeteria
The Omnidroid tried to move back away from further damage, but it was almost out of room, and Flynn could have torn it apart right then- if not for the blast that knocked them both into the far wall. The Doomslayer was quick to his feet with a growl. He looked up to see two metallic arms shooting straight toward him. He was quick to raise both arms and block the strike, holding back the arms with his own two as he kept his feet planted on the ground, though he slid back several feet, gritting his teeth. He continued to try to hold it back, but with sudden surprise, he felt his bad arm give way, bending to the side with a sickening crack as it broke in half.

He let out another unintelligible scream, loud enough to tear his vocal cords apart though he still kept yelling as his broken arm allowed the Omnidroid to overpower him, shoving him into the ground. Fortunately for the wounded Slayer, his suit was durable enough to prevent the Omnidroid from managing to 'crush' him.

Frisk
Far East - City of Mercy
*You didn't SAVE her.

Frisk's eyes widened slightly as she focused her full attention on Silver and Blaze now, a feeling gripping her stomach. She hadn't had the time to go for Blaze... come to think of it, she hadn't had the time to go for Maxwell either, but other than being disappointed with chocolate cake, he seemed relatively fine.
Blaze, however, was clearly still suffering the nightmare. The emotional stress Gaster had put her through had clearly been too much. It seemed he'd won against them in the end.

Frisk quickly dashed to Blaze's side along with Silver as she studied the anthropomorphic cat. "I can still SAVE her." Frisk said quietly. "Nonono, I still can. I... I can. I know I can." Her mind was racing. She was trying to think of how to SAVE her. She could possibly use her determination to give Blaze a boost of power (and health), which might wake her up... but if Gaster's nightmares were still influencing her, then she might be trapped...
She was at a loss of what to do in that moment.

Rick Grimes
Fenrir Far East - Training Room
"Yeah." Rick gave the newcomer a nod. "I'm Rick. Rick Grimes." He was truthfully a bit surprised at how well they said he'd done. He wasn't much of one to enjoy receiving praise anyway. He just did what he had to. He always had. He could remember those ex-saviors at the sanctuary... Potter announcing when Rick arrived... "Rick Grimes! The man who ended the war!"
He had been revered. Become somewhat of a local legend. He hated it.

"Vajra cores?" Rick asked once Lenka brought it up, his interest peaked. He wasn't familiar with that name, but it sounded important. From the way they spoke of it, they seemed to be important, at least. If he'd be helping them out, then knowledge of these 'vajra cores' would come in handy.

Negan
Camelot - Throne Room
Negan gave Sam a grin. "I would really appreciate that, Sam." He said, staring straight at the man's eyes, never diverting his gaze. "Thank you. You can go ahead and do whatever you want once you do that. You've earned it." However, this transaction of words was interrupted by a blue blur, and suddenly, there was some kid with blue hair standing in the throne room, appearing bewildered.
Then Sonic talked down on the kid, speaking as though he were talking down to a disobedient toddler. His voice was clearly a condescending one. Negan wouldn't really have minded, but that tone honestly annoyed him a bit.

However, this jail bird kid didn't really concern the leader of the saviors, so he didn't much care. He'd stay in the throne room for now, get real tight with this wacko king. Sam would handle getting back to everybody, delivering the news...

Bro, Sans
Camelot - Halls
"Come on, dude, not you too." Bro sighed. "It's just some weird superstition. I've had Lil' Cal my whole life. He's always been there, man. I'm telling you, there's nothing wrong with him."
Sans gave a shrug in reply. "maybe."
"No 'maybe'." Bro argued. "He's super cool, super fun, and just great for little kids' birthday parties." He defended, his grip on Cal tightening. The skeleton didn't really seem to care, however as he looked back to Kiran for a moment, then toward Bro. "sure, pal. just keep an eye on lil' cal, then. nobody wants it here."
With that, he turned and walked away, disappearing around a corner. Bro readjusted his kamina shades with a sigh and presumably a roll of his eyes, though Kiran couldn't see that. "Nerve of that guy."

------------

"nah." Sans said from the back of the group, seemingly having rejoined them out of nowhere at some point, though nobody knew when. "nobody needs to share a room with me. i won't need one."

Artemis
Camelot - Dining Hall
Artemis grabbed only a few items- mostly fruits and vegetables, as well as a roll, though no meat. Seemed she must be a vegetarian. She and Serena found themselves a seat, and began to eat. Artemis appeared to be very polite and formal in her eating habits. Elbows off the table, a straight back, taking small mouthfuls. Her mind was elsewhere, once again. She was beginning to wonder what she could do now that she wouldn't have been able to back in her home. She was essentially free to do as she pleased, not really expecting consequences. The only downside was her lack of power. She should have been far beyond every individual in and around Camelot combined- yet here, she'd barely been able to reach a stalemate with the loud-mouthed king.

Chara
Goldenwalk - Streets
"Retreating, hm?"
Chara appeared behind Cecil, walking at his pace, Flowey still in her arms. "My, you're in desperate need of my assistance. If Zeliyis is so powerful, then explain why you're getting curb stomped by overweight men with stupid accents?" She smirked brightly as she teased the commander. "If Zeliyis is so powerful, why does he bother with the weak such as yourself? You seem fairly pointless if you ask me. Tell me. Have you ever even met Zeliyis? How do you actually know he's real? What if he's just a lie conjured by your superior commanders to keep you in line?"

Vriska
Sequin Land - Risky's Ship
Vriska raised a brow, smirking slightly. "Eat a troll or eat a troll brain? Or both? Probably both." She gave a shrug. "I'm pretty sure I've eaten troll before. Leftovers from one of my mother's meals. It was... alright, I guess. Blood tastes better than meat in my opinion. But you're a zombie, you probably don't mind."

Balaho
"Atriox." A jiralhanae growled behind the leader of the Banished, who calmly turned his head slightly to show he was listening. "We have arrived at Balaho." The moment he said this, Atriox could see the misty blue circles of slipspace disappear, the ice planet then appearing on the screen in front of him. Atriox smirked, staring at the planet for a moment.
"If I could ask, Atriox..." The jiralhanae behind him spoke up again. "...Why do we need the unggoy?"

Atriox didn't look back at his ally this time, simply letting out a low growl before speaking. "They are a useful species, if used correctly. Perfect for canon fodder. They reproduce at a higher rate than most species, and don't require years of education. Besides..." He turned around, beginning to stomp off the bridge as the screen disappeared. "They do not deserve the wrath of the flood, standing alone. Establish contact. Inform YapYap I will soon be meeting with him in-person... In his home."

 

[Mokko]

Noah Kaiba
Camelot Castle Throne Room
Noah blinked. In an instant, his surroundings had changed. Panic filled his mind- he’d been outside, waiting for the arrival of Percival- or the king- or his cards. Now, he was in a room. It appeared to be part of the castle, but he couldn’t be sure- his transportation had been but a blur. He spun on his heel, backing away from Sonic, a tad dazed.

He could still feel the presence of his monster, so that much was good, at least. He grit his teeth, before glaring across the room, scanning it. He saw that Percival was there, but now there was also this strange blue guy…

“On your guard, Athena,” Noah muttered under his breath. He then straightened his back, a smirk coming to his face. “Fools. What kind of idiotic sorcery was that? No matter…”

He then turned slightly, mosty facing Percival.

“Percival, was it?” Noah asked, disregarding the blue stranger. “I demand to know the location of my cards!”

The silhouette of a duel monster flickered behind the Kaiba boy.

Maxwell
Far East, Fenrir Base
Maxwell sighed lightly, before looking up at Jet. He admittedly wasn’t intimidated in the slightest, and wasn’t about to play pretend. What a nuisance. He had half a mind to kill him right now.

Faster than the naked eye could even process, Maxwell’s hand snatched his pencil, darting across the paper of his notebook, before…

Three items appeared.
A carton of chocolate milk.
A pool noodle.
And last but not least…
A cupcake with pink and yellow frosting.

Maxwell sighed, disappointed at the outcome. How had that happened? He was definitely off his game after seeing those memories. He set the notebook and pencil aside.

“Back off. Leave me alone,” Maxwell said in reply to Jet, in a surprisingly mellow voice- yet it was still lined with harshness due to the speaker’s obvious bad situation and attitude.

Papyrus
Ultra Space
Papyrus let out a disappointed sigh, unhappy at the violent approach his new friends were taking on this creature.
“BIG CRYSTAL! I APOLOGIZE! WE SHALL STILL DINE TOGETHER, QUITE SOON, ON A MAGNIFICENT BOWL OF PASTA! CAPTURING! NYEH!”
Multiple large bones appeared, and began to curl around Necrozma, forming something of a makeshift cage.

 

[Pro Hero Dekiru]

UA Students, Ash, Soul, Link
Yharnam

Midoriya hit the wall of an opposing building, before sliding to the ground.
He cried out in pain, his arm a tad mangled; though the skin couldn't be seen outside the glove. However, the king that could be seen outside the shoulder was a deepened red, scraped, and bleeding.
Watching as the monster died out, he grinned before standing.
"Alright," he thought, running towards the second one. "Just one more!"

Sir Lancelot, Goku, and Galacta Knight
Camelot Castle Training Grounds

Unfamiliar with the term "zen", he turned to Galacta Knight for confirmation with a confused look. The white and magenta clad warrior simply shrugged, also in the dark when it came to more modern lingo.
Noticing this, Goku turned. "He means what you like; what gets you all fired up."
Lancelot nodded. "Yes, t'was simply a friendly spar in means to test our strength."

“If you see a teal haired kid, tell him I’m going to get Percival as we speak!”

Turning, Lancelot noticed the guard dash by without another word.
Cautious, he turned to those he had met.
"You all, forgive me, but I am afraid we shall have to resume this later," he said, flipping his visor on, becoming a hell of a lot more intimidating in the process. "My duties call me; I must check on something."
He tuned to Caulifla. "I hope we can resume this at a later time."
In a flash of black and red, the Knight of the Lake was gone.

Jet
Far East, City of Mercy

Taken aback by Maxwell's response, Jet sighed, about to say something.
"Nonono, I still can. I... I can. I know I can."
He turned, watching as Blaze was down on the floor; she wasn't resting, or unconscious.
She appeared to be... cringing.
"Damn it," Jet quietly cursed. He turned to Frisk and Silver.
"I'm gonna see if there's anything that can wake her up manually; maybe some water, or even some people."
Getting a running start, Jet wove his hand. A minor crystal board appeared before him; he had made so many before it.
He jumped on, fusing his crystal soles to the floating board; it was an effective means of transportation.
Swinging around to grab his bag... or at least, what he thought was his bag, he curled around to the group.
"Give me like five minutes." He then turned to Maxwell, huddled in the corner.
"We're not done yet. Keep that in mind."
In a flash, Jet was gone.
And so was Maxwell's backpack.

While on that subject, a slice of the cake and the milk were gone as well.

 

[Mechanist Gamma]

Specter's Ship
Suddenly, a light filled Hiro's vision.
"Hiro."
A man now stood in front of him. Seemingly glowing golden, the man resembled some form of humanoid light, with short blonde hair, a beard, and a cloak that covered the rest of his body. Raw power seemed to emanate from him... but a reassuring one, that helped to relax Hiro.
"I apologize for not coming to you sooner."

---

"Ah, yes. A teleportation circle hidden behind a fake wall designed by the villains, likely putting us right at their mercy. PERFECT escape route." Cut Man huffed. But then again... they did need a quick way out of there, and they were fairly damaged. Stowing his worries, Cut Man ran onto the circle. It was clear Chief was going on his own, leaving Cut Man and Hunter alone. Cut Man reached out a hand to the Hunter. "We'll see you later, Chief! We'll keep in contact over comms!"
If his comms were operational.
...
They were. Good. At least SOMETHING worked.

---

From inside the Omnidroid, sparks began to fly out, energy blasts soaring out from within it.

Camelot Castle, Throne Room
"You will demand NOTHING." Percival said. "You stand before the ruler of Camelot, his majesty King Sonic himself."
Sonic merely smiled, taking a casual posture as he picked up his cape and returned it to his back, fluffing out the dust. "Your cards, hm? What's so special about 'em you'd escape from jail and track down a Knight of the Round Table to recover them for?"
"My lord, those cards seem to be capable of summoning monsters." Percival stated. "I don't yet know their maximum. They could be extremely dangerous, especially with how he attempted to attack the castle with them."
"Ah, gotcha." Sonic said. "Think I'm gonna give your request a hard 'no'. You might get 'em back if the trial goes in your favor, though, provided you head on back to your cell and wait for tomorrow morning."
"M-my lord, surely you're not considering-"
"If the kid plays nice and didn't hurt anyone, I'll give him his stuff back." Sonic said. "Not gonna punish someone for doing NOTHING."
"He threatened a guard."
"So does Lancelot every time he's in a bad mood."
Merlina, meanwhile, kept her eyes locked on the image she could see behind the boy.

Camelot Castle, Refugee Camp
Shantae nodded. "Oh, yeah! That sounds great! But what if there's only two beds...?"
"Eh, it won't be the first time Yang and I have bunked together!" Ruby smiled.
Tony smiled himself. "Then I guess those are your arrangements. I'll need to figure out a room I can hole up in before heading out to find that blacksmith."
"Oh, right!" Shantae said. "You were going to visit the blacksmith, weren't you?"
"YOU'D BETTER NOT LEAVE ME BEHIND!" Ruby said, anxious to go.
"Wouldn't dream of it, kid." Tony ruffled Ruby's hair a bit.
"Here we are!" Gawain said, stopping. "There's a few rooms here. You can look at the sign posts to see if there's anyone there or not - they've all got chalk to add your own name to." By 'rooms', Gawain really meant somewhat unstable-looking wooden boxes with two beds, a closet, a table, two chairs and a lantern. Hey, it was enough, right? There were a few already chalked up - one read "Serena", another read "Joseph Joestar", a third off in the distance seemed to read "Artemis" in very fancy writing. Ruby smiled before running over to one, writing "Ruby, Yang + Shantae" on one. Tony took a knee beside another, writing down "Tony Stark". He assumed Snake and Raiden would handle their own room.

Camelot Castle, Dining Hall
Joseph glanced over at the pair as he ate, almost finished himself. "...so, where do you come from?" JoJo decided to ask at last, pushing the earlier wound to his pride to the back of his mind.
"Kalos!" Serena said, biting down on another piece of steak. "Thugh I'fe awso bin t-" She stopped talking, deciding to chew her food first, wary of what Artemis might think. "I've also been to Hoenn and a few other places."
"Can't say I recognize those places." JoJo said, putting an arm onto the table. "Though considering where we are right now, that's hardly surprising."

The Wilds, The Cliff
"Magic... subspace...?" Keda pondered. "Oh! That must be where you got that outfit from earlier, yes? And your outfit swaps on the field... Interesting." Rex then talked about the dinosaurs and all that. "...and what can they DO?" Keda asked.

Goldenwalk Sewers
"Right!" Spidey said. He leapt off the wall at the last moment, feeling his back starting to give out. As he did, the webbing collapsed, and the roof began to fall. No longer having Toph's support, the meager webbing began to stretch and snap. Spidey launched two threads forwards, trying to follow the others through the route Toph had made...
"Oh no."
He wasn't able to make it. A good portion of the collapsing tunnel fell on top of Spidey, pinning him to the ground as the rest collapsed around him with a thud and large dust cloud.

"...come on, Peter..."
Spider-Man let out a groan, trying to push himself up. Hundreds of pounds of rock were on his back now, only his front half free from the rubble.
"You... you did this before, Parker, just... come on... get yourself up...!"
He tried to push himself up, but... he couldn't. It was too heavy.
"COME ON!"

Goldenwalk Streets
Still carrying the large bags, Wario walked through the streets, whistling a bit. Waluigi and Mona kept glancing around.
"Waht even is this place?" Waluigi asked. "Don't look like anywhere in the Mushroom Kingdom. Those guys looked foreign, too."
"I'm sure we'll find someone who can give us a heads-up!" Mona said. "Like... Oh! Like them!"
Wario looked at what Mona was pointing at - a group of people fighting more of those soldiers, including...
"WAH! THAT'S LUCARIO!" Wario dropped one of the bags, swinging the heavy sack he still held around over his head. "Hey, jackal boy! Need a hand?!" Wario launched the bag straight at the soldiers.

Goldenwalk Business District
*clang*
Scorpio's tail collided with X's arm once again, the cyborg defending himself once again. Nathan tried to aim again, his gun damaged from the previous tail strike. Behind the car he was using for cover was Spider-Woman, who he had dragged to safety. "Come on, Gwen..."

Dreamland, Green Greens (Infinity Rift)
"Ah, it's, uh... A bit confusing." Maple stammered with a chuckle. "It's like I followed a... magical trail to you, if that makes any sense? It probably doesn't..."
"Wait, Kairi's a MASTER in your multiverse?" Alpha began to marvel. "That's AWESOME! Wait, Yen Sid... Do you know Buzz Lightyear? Or Flynn Rider? How about Hiro Hamada? Or, wait, on the topic of video games, what about Mario? Or Sonic? Link?"
"Back off, nerd wonder." Maple said, lightly tugging on his ear.
"Ow..."
Hat Kid, meanwhile, marveled at Bomberman's hat.

Kris let out a sigh. "...Hornet." he said.

Reliable Excavation Demolitions Base
"So... what is it?"
"I'll tell ya something, Ludwig... I've got no darn clue."
Dr. Ludwig and Dell Conagher, better known as the Medic and Engineer, stood in front of a large machine. Within the machine, contained behind a glass screen, was a small glowing crystal, held aloft by two energy fields created by modified miniature teleporters. The Spy leaned against the wall nearby, smoking a cigar.
"Ah called ya two here because of the readings I'm getting from that darn thing." Dell said, pulling up his tablet and showing it to Medic. "I'm not entirely sure it's accurate, but it looks like this thing is giving off quantum energy readings equivalent to my teleporters."
"Are you implying it's some form of... crystallized wormhole?" Medic pondered. "What would happen if it was shattered? Or... even touched?"
"That's why I called you and Spy here." Engie said, looking over to the frenchman. "The three of us are pretty much the think tank of this team. If anyone can figure out what this thing is and what's up with it, it's us."
"Do you know where it comes from?" Spy asked.
"That's the thing." Conagher stated. "Structural analysis makes it look like it's makeup is completely alien. It ain't like any material we've got in this world, at least - yes, including Australium."
"If it's a wormhole equivalent to a teleporter..." Ludwig pondered. "Perhaps it came from a different world? A different UNIVERSE, even!"
"Multiverse theory." Dell picked up what his ally was saying immediately. "But if it is from another universe... was it sent here intentionally? And if so... by WHO?"
Before Spy could voice his thoughts, the door to the room was suddenly kicked open by the foot of a Bostonian boy. "Yo! I got some chicken." Scout said, walking in. "Oh, hey, Spy. Medic. Engie. Mysterious crystal machine. ...wait, what's that?" Scout pointed a chicken leg towards the machine, the bucket with many other legs under his arm.
"It is a giant metal... uh... CANNON!" Soldier determined, following Scout in.
"Wh- Go on! You boys get out of here!" Engie ordered, trying to shoe them off. His hands were met with a bucket of chicken, which Scout gave to him before moving past him.
"Yeah, Soldier, I don't think it's a cannon. But it looks like something cool that Engie whipped up. Like that box that swapped our brains around!"
"Ooh! Or that knife that makes you gain the body of whatever you stab!"
"Yeah, yeah, or that flying Dispenser!"
Dell passed the chicken to Medic, moving towards Scout. "My machines are NOT toys! Didn't y'all learn that when you summoned a monster?! Now get the hell away from it, Scout, or-"
"What's this do?"
Scout put his finger down on a button, raising a small electric prod inside the glass. Spy, Medic and Engineer all looked on in shock. "Scout." Engie said slowly. "Ah need you to not press anything else and SLOWLY back away from the machine. NOW."
"Nah, I think I'll keep pressing buttons." Scout said. "What's this do?" Scout pressed a few more buttons and flicked switches. Lights on the machine began to turn on and off, prods and apparatuses rising and lowering. He accidentally started scanning the crystal with a drill.
"That looks fun!" Soldier said. "I shall join you in pressing the buttons!"
"Get the hell away, boys!"
Engineer attempted to pull Jane Doe and Jeremy away from the machine, but they kept going back and pushing more buttons.
"I have found a big red button!"
"Do NOT press the-"
"I have pressed the big red button!"
The electrical prod suddenly sparked the crystal. A moment later, Scout, Soldier and Engineer had vanished, leaving Medic and Spy alone in the room with only the corners of the machine remaining.
Medic dropped the bucket of chicken, and Spy allowed the cigar to fall to the floor from his gaping mouth.
"Oh, zhis is not gud."

Far East, City of Mercy
"-button."
Dell readjusted his helmet, glancing around. Where were they? It seemed like they were in some sort of post-apocalyptic wasteland. "Well, look at what you boys have gone and done now!" Engineer said. "Now we're stuck in the middle of some dystopian future."
"Hey, let me explain myself." Scout said. "So first of all, it's technically your fault for building that machine."
Dell gave Jeremy a dirty look.

"What... do you mean, SAVE her?" Silver asked. "Are you saying you could help her? Is that why He wanted your... well, what I assume is your soul?"

Far East, Fenrir Far East Branch, Training Room
"Yeah, Vajra. A large-class Aragami." Lenka said. "Really dangerous. We barely managed to get all three."
"Wasn't your assignment TWO Vajra cores?" Tsubaki asked, looking down at the team leader.
"We ran into a third one, and had to take it down..." Utsugi chuckled. "It was a good thing we had Soma with us, or we might not have been able to crack it."

Sequin Land, Risky's Ship
"Oh no, the meat is overrated. It's SPECIFICALLY the brain." Rottytops said. "That delectable, tangy substance and the scrumptious flavor..."
"LAND HO! MERMAID FALLS SPOTTED! PREPARE TO DROP ANCHOR!"
Rottytops turned to see Mermaid Falls in the distance. "Oh, we're almost there!"

Yharnam
Trevor picked himself up off his ass, watching the kid go ham. "The hell...?"
Sypha quickly ran over, lifting him up. She turned to the woman. "Uh, hello? You look like you fit in here. Do you know what's going on?"

Ultra Space
"Papyrus." Plague said, turning to the skeleton. "If you are more of a HINDRANCE to this mission than HELP, I will return you to Olympus myself.
Malos looked at the bones in distaste. He slashed them apart, allowing Cooler to slam his knee into Necrozma's back, launching the creature back into the air. Plague slowly stepped forwards, summoning creatures. They served as platforms, allowing Adam Tauros and Neopolitan to run up, rapidly striking the crystal creature. Left with no other options, Necrozma attempted to swing wildly at the massive amount of enemies coming its way...
Suddenly, a single sword struck outwards, the hilt slamming into Necrozma's chest. The Pokemon was launched back, before being caught by Z, who had seemingly appeared from nowhere. Z unleashed a large blast of green electricity from the palm not holding the creature, and the beast fell limp.
"Hmph. I thought it would put up more of a challenge." Z said. "But I suppose it IS incomplete... Plague?"
Some creatures resembling mist woman appeared, taking Necrozma from Z and bringing it to Plague. "Understood. Should I prioritize it, the Pillar Men or the Void Heart search?"
"Hyness can handle the Void Hearts." Z stated. "Malos, Dracula. You two are to track down the other two pieces. They should be here as well. Take... Cooler and Undyne. The rest come with me."
"Gotcha, boss-man!" Malos gave a court wave, Dracula merely nodding. Cooler flew down to join the pair.
Z summoned his sword back to his side, sheathing it as he landed. Plague fell into a walk just behind him, whistling a bit as her creatures carried Necrozma back into Olympus II with them.

 

[Shen: King of Digimon]

Name: Pipotrons, Specter.
Location: Specter’s Ship

As Hunter and Cutman all approached the portal, it began to shine witha blue light, rings of energy enveloping the entire team. And as quick as it appeared, the team was gone!

.
..
...

Suddenly, they rematerialized. They appeared in a dimly lit room. Behind them were several dozen crates filled with various contents. From plates, screws, wrenches, bananas, and unassembled weapons. It seemed this was a storage room...

“At last, I get to see you all face to face.” A deep voice spoke.

Suddenly, a wide wall had begun to rise up, separating the division between the cargo room and this new room. The trio were met with the faces of a large gorilla like metallic primate, G, a tall, humanoid creature slightly resembling a lemur, J, a short pointy eared gremlin with a eye piece, Krak, and finally a familiar face: Pipotron Meta.

Suddenly, a tv had turned on near Hiro as well as Doomslayer, Chief, followed up by on the screen of hank’s car, showing a live feed of the Neo pipotrons and the rest of team hiro’s meeting.



“I’m glad that you could make it, although I would have preferred Hiro be with you.” J continued. “A pity, he was the most interesting.”

“Gruhhhhh!” Pipotron g banged her chest.

“You have earned our attention throughout your conquest throughout our fortress and this ship. So we can now address you as worthy of it. allow us to introduce ourselves.”

“Y-You know me! Pipotron Meta, Gari!” Pipotron Meta said in slight distain at the three, namely Chief. “The youngest but the most diverse!”

Krak, managed to peel his eyes off the screen with hank. Krak snickered over at the trio, his eyepiece glowing a bright purple.

“The most intellegent and cunning of us! Pipotron krak! Kekekeke....”

“Gruuuuuhhhhhh!!!!!”

“...bleh...and this big brute is Pipotron G.” Krak said dismissively, making a shooting motion.

“And I am Pipotron J.” J stated simply, crossing his arms. “I do hope your reputation is accurate enough about your power, or else this will be boring.”

Now in the Pipotron room, there was something visible. A door going to the right that had ‘lab’ on it. Oil seemed to be looking at the bottom of it, something odd considering most of specter’s machines were powered by electricity.


......


Name: Rex Raptor
Location: Wilds


“Eh? What do they do? What do they do?!” Rex seemed offended. “The growl! Stomp! Roar! Trample the opposition and tear them to shreds!”

Rex made the motion of each one. Gritting his teeth for the growl, making a a stomp while curling his fingers like a T-Rex and the giving out a roar, before stomping many times like he was putting out a fire on the ground.

“Nyahahaha!”

 

[BurbleBurble]

The Hunter
Specter's Ship Mess Hall

"Ah Cutman, looks like you took a bit of a beatin'." That was an understatement. The android had been heavily damaged- lost an arm, sparking all over. Still operational.

It was then a wall disappeared- as they did at times -revealing some type of circle. Now, what type of circle it was the Hunter was unaware of, but the Chief wanted him and Cutman to go towards it. Now clearly, this was intentionally revealed. Unless a malfunction in the walls revealed it, which given the damages wasn't unlikely.

Now if this were before, the Hunter may of doubted the chief. Cutman gave off similar doubts now. But the Hunter trusted the chief, even after the spurt of madness upon him. Mechanical Owls had a habit of doing that. Not to mention, the Hunter's breath was feeling quite sparse.

"Aye, I'll trust ya on this one Chief." The Hunter gave a curt tip of his tricorn, taking Cutman's remaining hand as he stepped on to the circle. "Good luck findin' the Slayer n' Kale."

And they were gone, in a flash of light.

And they returned to the corporeal world just as fast, in a dimly lit room. Maybe Cutman wasn't too far off...And as a wall rose, yes. Yes, Cutman was right. A taciturn tall primate spoke to them, alongside two more ugly fellas and the shapeshifting Gari. They were outnumbered and cornered. If this were Yharnam, he'd just fail, but come back again and again until he suceeded. But here...not much of an option.

Alone, Gari hadn't proven much of an issue. But his new friends seemed far stronger. So this was bad. If Chief were here he'd make things a tad easier, but the heavily damaged Cutman was the Hunter's only ally for the moment.

"Oi, listen here right bastards." The Hunter spoke. He was moving his free hand towards his coat. "You've done a bloody good job cornering us at our weakest, feckin' trap happy bastards." He clasped something in his pockets. "But, if you really want a fight, well..." An urn cracked upon the floor, spilling flammable oils. He unsheathed his cleaver saw, sparks flying. The liquid lit, separating the two groups. "...I'll try my best." The Hunter used the distraction to tackle Cutman- taking cover behind a crate.

"We don't have long, we need to make it to that door." He told Cutman, whispering to the automaton. "Maybe we can lose em' in there. And, err..." He grabbed Cutman's severed arm, which had fell to the floor with the tackling. He tucked it within his coats, alongside his other belongings. "We'll keep that safe. So, I've got three molotovs, a couple knifes, and that gun with one more pack of puhlasma. Let's think of somethin'...and quick."
-----
Eileen the Crow
Central Yharnam

As the Detroit Smash hit, a dual scream called out. The skull of the first Darkbeast shattered almost immediately, falling to the earth as it's body was destroyed from the repeated assaults. As for the second...well, once the winds settled, it still stood. Midoriya seemed to mistake it for still being in a fighting state, being unfettered by his injury, with it's jaw agape in a low screech.

It's body collapsed under it, dust spurning from it's joints. The beasts were felled, at long last, the combined assault of the group having done their toll on the ancient beasts. Their dead bodies rapidly deteriorated into century old shards of bone and dust, only scattered remains left of them.

--PREY SLAUGHTERED--
​

"W-what even..." Eileen squeaked out, in shock. Surprise after surprise from this group...Youth did not equate lack of strength, that much was clear. But that attack had nearly destroyed the Darkbeasts in only one blow. Was this child blessed with some sort of strength beyond? Were these the great old ones, in a bizarre shape?

She was interrupted from her interpretations of these young individuals by one of the newcomers she compared to Hunters. She didn't know what was going on.

"Well, I'll tell you what I know. City of Yharnam, the hunt, beasts like the thing there. Except more fleshy. Those ones aren't supposed to be out here. Darkbeasts. I'll explain more when I herd these folks into the cathedral. It's supposed to be a safe place..."

Seemed that even with precautions Midoriya took to avoid cause damage, debris had still blocked the entrance of chapel. "Oh well. A bit of blockage won't stop us, will it?"

Of course, the blockage was only one of the worries. Their was a cry from behind the chapel. And then above it. Another Darkbeast.

"Another? Well, this is a bit surprising..."

From the path Sypha and Trevor had carved, two more screams. Two more Darkbeasts. "Three more?!"

More calls from behind the chapel. Dozens. More booming steps as the beasts threw themselves upon the temple's roof, each cooing and screeching all the while. Like a pack of hungry wolves surrounding a kill. A dozen at the least. Each glaring down upon the group.

Something told Eileen that maybe this would be a little...too much. And the Chapel was likely not safe anymore.

"Friends, I believe the true merit of any good Hunter is to know when to retreat...Like now."
-----
Raiden
Camelot Castle Interior

Sam had passed from being a threat to the group as a whole for the moment. As long as Raiden didn't go all out like he did on Monsoon, presumably they'd coexist in an uneasy peace. He'd focus on the latter part of that statement.

Now they'd need to bunk for the night. Rooms were scarce and he'd need to stay with someone. Tony offered Snake. Raiden had no disagreements with such a thing. Though if he were being honest, he didn't really sleep anymore. Not in his combat body at least. "If Snake has no issue with it, I don't either." It was a probably a good thing he didn't need sleep though. It was hard to get some rest with a built in blade sheath, a bandana that acted as a dual eyepatch and eye, and being built like a living weapon.

Combat bodies were not built for the niceties of life. And he'd certainly not want to rest aside one. If Snake didn't either, he didn't blame the soldier. He'd just use the room for resting standing up.

Because his mechanical muscles didn't quite get sore either.
-----
Jetstream Sam
Camelot Castle Throne Room/Sanctum

Negan commended the idea. Fantastic.

The King clearly had his own business to attend to, as he sped away as quick as bullet and returned just as quickly with some...child. Sam didn't really care at this point. "Well Negan, you have a nice chat with the king. I'll be back." Sam's smug attitude had returned faster than one would expect. Without Raiden to bog him down, he didn't need to be serious.

Without anyone to accompany him, he navigated through the castle, weaving around various colorful folks and long eared elves. He didn't care, because once again he was on a mission- go tell the others where to go. Hopefully they hadn't torn one another apart...oh, what was he saying? Azula seemed like a nice person, and a smart young girl. Nanashi seemed right enough, leaving only that large horned fellow...and the tall dark cloak, and the odd speaking kid. It was a bit of a crowd, but the King didn't seem to mind as long as you weren't having swordfights in the throne room.

But as he began approaching the gate, an intimidating figure had begun to make it's way through the town as well. Sam's smile still did not fade as he approached Vader. "Well well, if it isn't Vader! Nice to see you, hmm? I see your little charge has left. As far as things go here, we're all clear. So if you find your friend...Berowski? Send him to the throne room." He gave Vader a pat on the back as he passed. Dismissive or smug?

Probably both, knowing Sam.

Kiran
Camelot Castle Interior

Well that didn't go as expected. Or was it completely expected at this point? Bro wasn't giving up on the puppet, no matter what Kiran, the king, their adviser, or skeleton would say. What was even the point of arguing it anymore? There was clearly a pattern, but Bro did not care. Kiran would continue to advertise the puppet as bad news, but more of a warning than an attempt to destroy or dispose of it.

"So, um, I'm not sure what your gonna get up to, but I really need to get my sword off the turrets surrounding the town. I mean, feel free to come with me, but I gotta get there before someone finds it and breaks it...scuffs it more...Your welcome to join me on my little, err, quest."

It was more of a distraction than an actual thing to go on. But he really needed to get it back. He wasn't sure if Priscilla or his dad would kill him first, but he wasn't exactly ready to find out.

Samus, Sarah, and the Flamebringer
Mountainside

Yep, standard villain fare. Death, destruction, evilness. The pauldrons really were bad news. He pulled out some wicked looking...sword? More of a club, to be honest. And just like the monsters, he emitted a terrible smog, an aura of evil. "Well, I won't feel bad when this guy topples over then." Sarah commented, pulling out her axe once again. It's edge sparked, prepared for the battle ahead.

The Flamebringer said nothing. She pounded her fists together, and ignited her arms. "We will drag you back to the hell you came from." With a battle cry she charged forward, seemingly intending to stop the sword herself.

Samus was far less colorful with her statement. "Engaging hostile." She lacked most of her more powerful tools- and she doubted finding missiles out in the wild would be easy, so even her basic missiles were a precious resource to use. She'd stick to the standard beam shots for now. Utilizing the morph ball, she veered to a side of the charging King Arthur. Unfurling from the ball, she let out a volley of shots towards Arthur. She aimed for center mass still- presumably the man still had organs or something vital in his center mass.

Heads were too small to hit reliably, especially on horseback.

As for Sarah, she had a different strategy- he road on horse, so take out the horse and force him to fight on foot. She lobbed the axe, crackling with lightning, as one of the legs. Usually she wouldn't do this, but if this guy was a monster, he was probably riding a monster horse. It occurred to her that the axe could just get stuck in the horse's leg...Hopefully it'd plow through it, like those armored creatures had.

Of course, she likely wasn't that lucky.
-----
Priscilla, Jackson, Quint, Aisha
Goldenwalk Streets

Jackson couldn't dodge forever. A scorching blast hit his side, tearing through his jacket, undershirt, and flesh. He grit his teeth. Hurt like hell, but it would patch up eventually.

More importantly, Lucario kicked a rifle his way- He did not waste any time grabbing it, clasping the handle, and the trigger. Now, he didn't know the make of this gun. Nor did Jackson necessarily know how to properly operate it, turn off safeties, or any of that. But guns usually had one thing in common- the trigger meant shoot.

And shoot it did. An assault of blasts did far more against the body armors of the soldier than any basic bullet did. Layers of armor burnt away, the trooper grunting as it seared through his chest. He stumbled back, the injury being a tad much on him. Wresting the gun from him would be no problem. "Priscilla, catch!" Jackson shouted, tossing the gun to his companion.

She too caught the gun, much to the shock of the troop she faced. But unlike Jackson, she didn't necessarily feel good about killing someone. Not the Jackson did either, but she didn't want to...step over that line.

She aimed for the kneecaps. Disable the foe, keep them down. It worked, as the soldier keeled over in pain. If knees were out of service, moving around would be a bit of an issue. If the laser cauterized the wound, blood loss wouldn't be an issue...Using this moment of pain for the soldier, she grabbed the rifle he held from him. "Here Jackson, take one!"

But even with new armaments, this didn't exactly help out Quint and Aisha and the charging threat.

"Stop the guy! Stop the guy! Use gravity-"

"I'm trying, alright?! Moving targets are hard!"

And as the soldier got closer and closer, and was about to swing his knives...something collided with his head. A righteous clang, and he fell over, unconscious. "...Huh?"

Some guy showed up and threw a huge bags of money at the soldiers. Plural. One of the soldiers that Lucario kicked- the one who didn't have a dislocated jaw - had pulled out a knife, likely intending it to plunge into Lucario's leg. But the bag of money similarly knocked him out cold.

There were few active soldiers now, and the mecha-scorpion was occupied with Thor. Seemed that the worst was over, thanks to the newcomer.
-----
Could she just sit there?

This was a lopsided fight. That person with the tail was overwhelming that guy who had fired upon her before she and the spider lady made up. Friend of your friend is your...friend? That wasn't a common saying, but...it was a necessity.

...She was already in trouble. Couldn't get much worse from here, right?

Her adrenaline shots were recharged. Would help keep down the migraine from being rammed into the truck earlier. As her shots activated, she took broad steps towards the battle field, step after step, increasing her pace as her thoughts became clearer: Stop the Scorpion.

She swung the Scythe about, her only operating lens shining red in the night. It's edge heated, glowing orange as she intended to lock blades with the scorpion man.

"Blue, for the head! The head!" She told X, referring to his hair color. Her plan was simple- use the she drop she got on him to lock down the tail, and have 'Blue' deck him in the face. Maybe the guy could get his blaster to work too.

Hornet

"Kris. It would appear our enemy is not intending to pursue us." Hornet said in response, looking out toward the horizon. "We should head back to Maple and report. We should still move out, regardless of their lack of a follow up." She turned her head towards Kris. "That is, unless you had a question for me."

Kris didn't often speak. She wasn't much for conversation, but if he had a question it was clearly important.

Cecil
Goldenwalk Business Quarter

Cecil grimaced as he heard Chara's nigh-singsong voice ring out. Elidocorc's "guest" was truly a pest. He knew not of her power, but clearly she had a habit to pop out of nowhere. She said they were retreating- and a slew of other insulting and demeaning comments no doubt meant to get a rise out of Cecil.

"Well, if it isn't the one Elidocorc brought along. I see you've heard our bit of trouble. Why overweight men with accents are an issue, I don't know. But the convergence is an odd occurrence indeed. If it brings things such as sentient flowers and odd children about, an extremely durable metahuman isn't unlikely." He only gave a brief glance to acknowledge Chara in any way. His mechanical limbs clicked as he spoke, gesturing towards the murderous duo. Cecil's actual arms laid at his sides. "And for the record, this isn't retreating. It's a tactical regroup. We will continue our search for the crystals once the few we've obtained are safe within the gate."

What irked Cecil especially was Chara's insistence about Zeliyis. He was not such an individual to be taken in vain, spoken in such tones. "Zeliyis is indeed incredibly powerful. Far surpassing me, Elidocorc, you and your flower friend. And it's true, even the horsemen under him, the greatest generals of his empire, are like comparing a hose to a tsunami. Much less me..." He stated with a twinge of bitterness. This child clearly saw him as pathetic, but he was formidable compared to a standard civilian. "But, he is still constrained. How many of you are there?...Don't answer us, I assume only one. How many of your flower friend? One. And still, there is only one Zeliyis. Which is why he needs people like me- We are far more powerful than civilians, but incomparable to Zeliyis. But there's only one Zeliyis to take a world at a time. Which makes people like I and my army perfect for a quiet deployment of a gate, which will flood this world with hundreds, thousands of Zeliyis troops!"

...He needed to reel himself back in. The exclamation was a bit much.

"...And as for Zeliyis, I have indeed seen him, albeit once. I believe nearly everyone in my troop has seen him once. That is true, yes?" He asked his soldiers, who had remained dutifully silent during his chat with Chara.

"I recall his visage on that day."

"As do I. The siege upon our lands."

"Yes, we were but whelps at the time, perhaps similar to you in stature, guest of Elidocorc. But I recall that day as the only day I saw the great Zeliyis in the flesh- he wrought destruction upon armies who attempted to stop them. His reign began that day, and that day was the one that brought us all here." Cecil turned his head towards Chara, in first act of truly acknowledging her.

"Now, I can't control you. It's not even in my authority. But do you intend on continuing to mock me, or are you going to join us in this regroup?"

Grima
Ultra Space

And the battle was finished, as Z descended on the behemoth. Grima crossed his arms as the android gave out commands.

Seemed everyone was rather...dismissive of the skeleton's efforts. He was just trying to keep it down, from the dark dragon's point of view. He didn't understand the peaceful approach much, but as he previously pondered, it could likely put the idea of violence in the skeleton's mind. Senseless bloodshed and all that.

"Don't worry friend, you'll be a good companion for us in no time." He gave Papyrus a pat on the back, as they approached the Olympus. "Now what's this pasta thing all about? I have honestly no idea what it is."

That was true, actually. Fell Dragons bent on humanity's end had little time for such niceties.

xxxxx​

...Light?

...Light.

Ah, Decker had a killer headache. What was he doing last...He was drinking. Heavily. As he usually did after work. As he drank that fateful last night, he had the best idea. He should off his augment! A bunch of synthetic implants into his spine, all of different materials and makes, had found a use in the field. But, that was the key word. In the field. Because, being able to recognize certain Daemon programs could be very dangerous in the right hands. Yet he still showed it off. People even started betting on him too. From what he recalled, it was pretty fun, up until one of the betters started asking questions.

He wasn't stupid enough, even in his drunken stupor, to say Invisible. Central would bite his ear off if he even mentioned them. Just K&O Chief of Security, his previous job. Of course, his augments seemed a bit suspect. Suspect enough to have a bunch of FTM Guards who just happened to be there have him dragged off. A lot of that was spotty, but he remembered getting thrown into a locker room...There was a bit more after that. He recalled a blue flash...

Whatever. He'd take his lumps from Central later. Question was, where was he?

As he picked himself up, he realized...this was not a corporate run city.

Unless they ran dilapidated cityscape wastelands.

"...What the hell..."

Just dust and broken skyscrapers as far as the eye could see. Air seemed...rather fresh. Probably because this was absolutely untouched by the Corps...Well, wherever he was, he decided that he probably needed to make sure he had some stuff on him.

Flask, half full. He'd need that, he was sure of it. Neural Disrupter...And his cloak. Why did he have those on him drinking? Beat him. He was glad to have something here, at the least...If there was something around here to threaten him. But as Decker took a long look at the dust...there was a shine. In the dust, something was sitting.

Now Decker didn't have much else to do, so he approached it. The sun pounding down on him. The shining objection was blurred from the sunshine and Decker's hangover, but...if he squinted real hard...

No, it couldn't. He lost it years ago. He threw it at a guard...or he spent all the bullets and put it in his cluttered apartment, never to be seen again? One of those. But if he kept squinting as he got ever closer...It was a revolver.

His pace quickened- even as he boiled under the sun in his layers of clothes, he was ever motivated to get it back. After what seemed like an eternity, he picked it up- scorching hot, but Decker was too elated to see it's exact make.

It was his refurbished revolver. A beautiful piece of retrofitted technology- six chambers, each filled with a custom plasma composite shell. Hand made, nothing your standard charge pack could restore. Easily cost him 15,000 Credits, not to mention every time he'd order a new set of bullets it was another 4,000 down the drain. But it was worth it for the aesthetic. Just like his genuine felt hat, made in the 1950s. Similarly expensive antiquities. But he loved every second of it, no matter how much grief his coworkers would give him for his "tacky" taste.

Well, he may of been trapped in some apocalyptic landscape, but he had his whole look complete. He'd die satisfied, at the least.

He could do without the heat though...

​

...So now what? Decker looked out to the horizon. There was a noise, echoing through the empty city.

...Who the hell was Merasmus? That guy must've really hated him.

​

"Hmmmmmmm..." The Soldier stroked his chin in deep recollection. His scattered brain was trying to recollect, think of what could've led to such an occurrence. Who could possibly be to blame for such a turn of events? This bizarre change of pace? This new chapter of Jane Doe's Patriotic Quest? Then, the pieces all lined up, and a cognizant series of events...for the Soldier, at least...came into his head.

"Men, we are stranded here in this strange place. But we know one thing...What brought us here was BLUE! The color of our dreaded enemy, the BLU TEAM. Clearly this is a plot by them to disrupt our controls. But, we are sure that the BLU Team does not have the power to send us to post-thing-engi-said cities. Only one thing could be to blame for this- MAGIC!" The Soldier spoke his theory, "But who would BLU Team dare team up with? My most dreaded enemy and frilly dress wearing pansy ass wizard MERASMUS! He gave the BLU team a magical piece of magic that they painted blue because Merasmus knew I'd press the button and poke it! DAMN YOU MERASMUUUUUUS!"
The Soldier's pure hatred for his Ex-Roommate boomed through the empty city.

He whipped out his shovel, clapping it in his palm. "Engi, Scout, we got to shove this thing up a bastard magicians ass. And then make him put us back where we belong. Who's with me! I knew you'd agree with me." Soldier didn't even wait for a response. He had already lit a cigar and begun walking off in a random direction too.

Cause that was how the Soldier worked.

Name: Neo Pipotrons
Location: Specter’s Ship


As smoke plumed up in the room, the embers and flames cast a dark shadow over pipotron J. J looked down at Hunter, his proud declaration despite his weakened state drew his eye instantly. A deep laugh escaped J, the tall Pipotron’s Stern expression reappearing soon after.

“Now? No, that would be all too easy. There is no sport nor fun in picking off the weak.”

Pipotron Krak Eyed J with a disapproving puzzled look, shaking his head before looking back toward the main crew. J crossed his arms and continued.

“Instead, We will test your power of your entire team and prowess once you arrive.”

Krak took that as the opportunity to look to the side wall, his eye piece glowing. Soon after it did, the wall began to turn transparent, seeing an open view of what was happening on the other side. Free space, with a single massive station floating above the world below. Several pods from the ship and battle cruisers with monkeys and other such droids and refugees were seen ferrying across the vacuum and toward the station.

“Kekekeke! Station Saru-4!” Krak cackled. “Highly defended super weapon and mobile defense platform!”

“This is where we will have our duels.” J spoke once more. “If you have the guts to come and face us in person, then you will be deemed worthy of a fight. Just try to make it an entertaining challenge.”

“Gruuuuuuuh!” Pipotron g pounded her chest in agreement.

“And don’t think i’ll Go easy on you over there, Gari!” Meta warned. “What do you say?? You coming or not, Gari?!”

J looked on towards the monitors of everyone listening. Hank, Hiro, Chief, and the pair in front of him as well. He looked expectingly, awaiting a reply with deeply focused eyes.

As the Arsenal unfolded before them, Numemon’s eyes Lit up like a Christmas tree, Doug noticed this quickly.

“Numemon, no-“

“NUMEMON YES!”

Numemon ran forward, picking up several weapons. From crossbow, bombs, grappling hook guns, to boomerangs and harpoons, he didn’t leave any weapon untouched. Doug was horrified

“Numemon...! This isn’t how tamers and digimon conduct ourselves!” Doug stood properly. “We are to make a good example to those around!”

Numemon looked to him, and then to the gun in his right appendage. “But...I like big booms.”

“Doesn’t mean you touch other people’s stuff without their permission!”

~~~~~The Wilds~~~~~​

Twilight was soon sucked in as everyone else had into Star's Wand as she descended through the magical subspace within before she found herself in the new destination. A castle, just as Star described...and one that had been comparable to the homes of both Celestia and Luna respectively.

Which given this girl had it inside her wand of all things, raised some questions of Twilight's own. Given she had only met them recently she was oblivious to Star's royal background though suspicions she was a princess of some kind had already began to form even if that context had been lacking.

 

[Ariados twice]

Danny looked around the castle. The last castles he had been in belonged to his enemies. Though he could tell from looking at the castle that this was not the home of some evil being. "Wow." Danny said.

Volpa spotted what appeared to be some kind of high tech scythe. She looked it over. "Impressive, hmm?" A voice said behind her. It was Catgirl. "It's modeled after a fictional weapon known as the Crescent Rose, which is a scythe that doubles as a sniper rifle." Volpa looked impressed. "May I pick it up?" she asked. "Of course you can. Heck, you can keep it if you want to." Catgirl said. "It was purposefully made plain colored so it's look could be customized."

 

[Godjacob]

Name: Hiro, Omnidroid, Kyuseishu, Keyblade Trinity Squadron
Location: Specter's Ship/Marseilles

Hiro stopped his mad dash as a blinding light cut him off as he had reflexively shielded his eyes while he had the Keyblade firmly in hand in case it had been another assailant of Specter or even that fox-mask bastard.

But, the voice had been quick to reveal himself a man Hiro had not seen before and tried to assure Hiro with this reassuring but unmistakable powerful aura before him. None the less, as Hiro glanced at him he remained on guard; he could not afford to take chances given his magic-drained condition as he had but one question to ask.

"Who are you?"
​

Though as Hiro asked this, monitors in the hall revealed those Pipotrons as they seemed to broadcast a gleeful message to everyone present. Which only caused Hiro to grow more anxious and worried over the others as he turned to the man.

"All right what do you want? I am kinda in a big rush. I have to save everyone." Hiro stressed to the man.

-----​

The Omnidroid seemed to cripple the Doomslayer and had the demon killer pinned down, but before it had the chance to go in for the kill circuits began to fry and error signs appeared on its monitors as something began to damage it internally.

On a defensive inpulse, it moved away from Doomslayer as it curled up into a ball as it began to ram into one of the walls repeatedly; it had detected some foreign presence inside that had a rough 97.45 percent causality behind these internal damages as it tried to knock whatever or even whoever it was with violent collisions to rock anything not rooted to its internal being aside.

-----​

Kyuseishu scanned the wreckage that had been what was left of Hiro's previous opponent, which given the carnage of the area the astral projection could tell had been a fearsome opposition. One that still had an eye that shinned even as the body had been left in pieces which was a curious sight to be sure.

"Report?"
​

Kyuseishu had not even turned around as Malcolm, the leader of the Trinity Squadron, had already appeared and assumed a knee behind the savior.

"The monster that has caused much damage to the ship has been dealt with. The party is scattered and on the verge of defeat. Their fall is all but imminent." Malcolm explained as the astral spirit made no visible reply as he kept his scan on Clockwerk.

"Good, thinks are proceeding perfectly. As Gilgamesh...."

-----​

Standing among a litter of corpses and broken weapons, Gilgamesh sat ontop of the stairs of what appeared to be the capital building. Forsaken flooded each and every building within the city as Gilgamesh had a manic grin on his face while he twirled his blood-stained lance in gleeful satisfaction as those energy tendrils from the Infinity Rift above continue to code and pull the essence of the city and the world from the ground up.

-----​

"...seems to have secured the city. That merely leaves one matter left to resolve. Find the boy, and bring him to me. He is drained and will be at your mercy, am I understood?" Kyuseishu asked as Malcolm stood tall with his Keyblade drawn and gave a nod.

"I understand." Malcolm said before he vanished as he aimed to track down and find Hiro as per Kyuseishu's request.

------​

As Kale's body drifted through the stars, the signs of fatigue and pain were visible on every square inch of her petite and drained figure. Though it was the matter of her cheeks, which seemed stained with tears that had been the most curious sight; a result of a nightmare she experienced before she lost conciousness.

One of Caulifla. One of everyone she loved moving further and further away as she had been left behind, the monster within having consumed her and clasped her between its giant palms. Leaving her alone with her own demons, alone and scared...

Andrew & Renee soon arrived by Specter once more as it appeared the worst had been resolved. Though they scanned on the hole blown to the stars and the Saiyan that drifted up among them.

"Appears the beast is destined to drift among the stars in oblivion." Andrew commented on as Renee glanced over to Specter.

"What do you desire done with her? Given her threat I could finish her just before she drifts out of reach." Renee offered as it appeared she was in the camp that believed Kale was too much of a danger to leave this to settle to chance.

Name: Erza, Dipper, Raven, Star
Location: The Wilds

Erza watched as Rex gave a demonstration of what the dinosaur could do, she could not help but shake her head...an amused grin on her face all the same in spite of that. Even with certain qualities that rubbed her wrong up to know she had to admit someone who can remain in such high spirits in spite of this situation at least had something she could consider a positive trait.

"Well, those dinosaurs should come in handy. Perhaps I'll spar with them to get them fine tuned, same with you Keda. I believe we all need to find our strengths and figure out how to work with them here if we are to survive. Something I have the upmost confidence in." Erza explained to the pair.

-----​

"Wow..."

That had been all Dipper managed to get out, as upon arrival inside what Star claimed to be her wand found this expansive castle within. Granted, Dipper had been inside the mind of his Grunkle before so this was not a new concept to him but that still was not enough for Dipper to be used to it.

Raven herself, who had ventured into her own subconscious world that was her mind daily, was unphased by this place as she floated up as she glanced at Star who had that big cheeky grin on her face as she saw everyone had been accounted for.

"All right, welcome to my little home away from home. Feel free to make yourselves comfortable, plenty of spare rooms to go around and if you have any questions feel free to share though be warned there may be some left overs from a crazy party I had with..."

"Did someone say party!?"
​

From the doorway entrance, a purple spider with a mustache, white gloves and a black tophat came in with an almost excited tone if Dipper had to take a guess as he crawled towards the grope and Star who glanced down and while her smile grew.

"Oh hey this is perfect timing! Guys this is one of my magic spells & friends, Spider With a Top Hat! He's normally used for parities..." Star before to explain before she felt Spider With a Top Hat crawl up her body as he appeared on her shoulder and tipped his hat to bow before the new arrivals.

"...but while I am an entertainer, I am also a fighter by heart. Something I wish to get more of a chance to show, but a pleasure to meet you all. Friends?" Spider With a Top Hat asked as Star gave a nod before she pointed to each one.

"Yep, new buddies from across different worlds. Meet Dipper, Raven, Nomad, Danny and Twilight." Star said as she introduced Spider With a Top Hat to the group and vice versa.

"Anyway, this little guy here can act as your tour guide. Tell you where is what if I am unable to." Star further explained to the group as the spider had a huff at that.

"I am a warrior & entertainer. Not a tour guide." Spider With a Top Hat said before he felt Star playfully pinch at his cheek.

"Oh no need to be so rough and tough. A little helping hand or hands go a long way. Do this and I promise I'll let you show me that new trick you've been dying to show me." Star said with a cheeky grin as the spider had a grin of his own and gave a nod as he moved before the group.

"May I show you to your rooms?"

Name: Yang, Caulifla, Azula, Bowser, Blake, Weiss, Goblin Slayer
Location: Camelot

Yang had an amused grin on her face as she watched her sis race off to one of the unclaimed room as she wrote their names down. Her excitement was quite infectious, though she had been mindful to turn to their other roommate as she decided to give her a friendly warning as she moved in and cupped a hand by her ear.

"Just a heads up, she is very excitable. So just be warned that you are rooming with a human energy bunny, but believe me when I say she does mean well." Yang said before she walked over to Ruby and their room door to admire her handiwork.

"Nice one sis, mind if I add a little flair to it though?" Yang asked Ruby, as she could not help but try to make their name tag stand out as she took a spare marker and added a decorative border around their names. Almost like their names were the center of a sun with pointed edges to represent the flames all around it.

------​

Caulfila had to blink in response to this guy who offered up an apology...as he seemed quite relaxed given he had nearly been blasted a few seconds ago. Not to mention his use of "zen" and his general language both verbal and body seemed to puzzle the newfound Super Saiyan.

"Uh...right....whatever you say, just keep you and your "zen" out of my way when I am in the middle of something important. Got it?" Caulifla asked with her arms folded over her chest as her hair returned to dark black and her eyes no longer shinned emerald green as her Super Saiyan form; unconsciously she had returned to her base form before she saw Lancelot flip his visor and request they settle it another time.

"H-hey!" Caulifla called out though in a flash her opponent had left as she was frustrated, but decided not to peruse for now.

-----​

Bowser growled as he realized their camp would need some wood for a fire, in the even Negan failed to get a stay at the castle for them, but given he had not been one to handle such menial tasks he decided to preserve what had been left of his "royal" standing as he walked over to Nanashi.

"We need wood and supplies. Go get it, and be back quickly." Bowser ordered of Nanashi, as Azula looked on in silence but saw where this had been going and decided to interject.

"Well, I mean if he'd prefer not to I cou..."

"Nah, I have to keep an eye on you. Make sure you don't go off on your own. Last thing I need is that human with the toothpick to moan at me. He goes." Bowser insisted as Azula made no further reply after she had been shot down seemingly.

Name: Lucario, Rocket, Thor, Toph
Location: Goldenwalk

WIth a combination of a thunder strike by Thor and a series of plasma shots by Rocket, the two unintentionally worked as one to try and blast the metal scorpion to pieces and tear it down.

Lucario however saw a soldier try to stab at him with a knife that had been knocked down by some gold, and for no other reason than to add further pain to his insult he raised a leg and slammed it down on the soldier's chest who coughed violently before he fell limp. The battle seemed to be over, as Thor & Rocket seemed close to finishing the mecha scorpion and only a few of the enemy soldiers had been left standing. There had been no point to continue...

Master?

Don't call me master. I am no longer your master. I've abandoned the queen & the kingdom. I'll never return.

"RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!"
​

But, in a moment of emotional weakness, this battle had given Lucario the perfect chance to vent against these "cruel" humans as he charged an Aura Sphere and fired it towards the soldiers as he aimed to blast any if not all of them with consecutive blasts as he roared in fury and if one had been enough to pick up on subtle cues in sorrow.

------​

"H-hold it!" Toph called out, as while she lost her ability to "sense" people with Logan having her held as he carried her away, but she had heard the cave come down and also heard Spider-Man or who she remembered the voice that belong to Spider-Man say as he tried to pump himself up...which meant he was trapped.

Toph would work to wrestle out of Logan's arm as she rolled along the ground, before she stood and gained solid footing as she slammed her palms onto the cave wall and two pillars rose to press up and against the caved in tunnel to try and help alleviate the pressure that had Peter pinned down to give him time to escape.

Name: Akame, Bakugo
Location: Yharnam

"Retreat? Screw that! Bring em on I'll blow each and every one of them to dust!" Bakugo yelled out, as rather than fear the sounds of the multiple monsters that could have closed in on them at any moment, sparks flew from his palms as he looked on with bold confidence.

Confidence that in no way was a response to his insecurities over what that "nerd" had just done to one of the beasts in one blow.

However, Akame had not been one to let pride make her decisions nor would she allow it to jeopardize the group as she appeared in a flash in front of Bakugo and glanced back at him with those cold, intimidating crimson eyes.

"You heard her. We are taking our leave. Now." Akame emphasized as she turned ahead to the sounds of the roars with her sword raised as Bakugo had been quick to scoff.

"Maybe where you come from turning tail to run is the proper thing but you don't know the first thing about me so don't think I need to tuck my tail between my legs and run!" Bakugo spat back as Akame had not even glanced his direction before she made a response.

"You specifically? No. But I know your type. Unrivaled confidence and a boastful nature to mask your deepest shortcomings, and those type tend to die early. I've had friends die off such assured and I will not see it happen again to put us all in jeopardy." Akame said, though as she made her calm yet somehow equally passionate retort to Bakugo the latter noticed that for one brief moment her hand seemed to shake at her handle. A rare display of emotion from the cold assassin at the mention of those fallen friends as Bakugo decided not to respond after he had seen this as he let out an annoyed sign.

"Fine. But make a habit of getting in my way and I'll kill you." Bakugo threatened before he and Bakugo moved back to Eileen ready to move out.

Name: Katsu
Location: Dreamland, Green Greens

​

"Wait, Kairi's a MASTER in your multiverse? That's AWESOME! Wait, Yen Sid... Do you know Buzz Lightyear? Or Flynn Rider? How about Hiro Hamada? Or, wait, on the topic of video games, what about Mario? Or Sonic? Link?"

I don't care if it is the save Woody, I am not putting on that damn dress!

Now now, any space ranger worth their own will tell you how vital infiltration can be in moments like this. Now hold still while Bo Peep curls your hair.

I consent to none of this!
​

".....some more than others..." Katsu muttered a bit, as Maple made mention of this magic trail which had gotten Phoenix to think a bit.

"Um, well, you managed to track Katsu here. So then wouldn't it be possible to use that same magic tracking method you used on him to find his friends?" Phoenix asked as Maya seemed to perk up.

"Yeah! Katsu says they all use the same Keyhole Buster so you should find them no problem!" Maya said with her little self-appointed nickname to Katsu's signature weapon; even if her word choice wasn't technically right her overall point and that of Phoenix's remained to be answered.

Name: Ogremon
Location: Catgirl Universe

Ogremon gazed upon the seemingly boundless supply of gadgets & weapons Catgirl had among her arsenal. While it had been impressive, the warrior within Ogremon would simply roll his eyes as he held his club in hand. In his mind, that was the only weapon he needed...

"So you got a lot of toys. Know how to use them?" Ogremon asked Catgirl.

 

[Ariados twice]

"But of course." Catgirl responded. "We haven't had the opportunity to USE all of them, given the large amount of them." Okimi snatched up gear that strongly resembled the Ember Celica. Suddenly, two figures flew in. One with a lasso, the other wore a cape. "Oh good." Catgirl said. "Can you watch these guys while I take care of some things? I don't want the Lair blown up or something because they were left unattended." The confused Wonder Boy and Sky Boy only had time to nod as Catgirl had already started to walk away.

"Pity." Alicia said. Happy, however, sighed in relief. Jay Mexicano hovered a foot or two above the ground. "Would cover be necessary?" Jay asked.

 

[comic]

Master Chief, Doomslayer, Ant-Man, Hank Pym, Luis
Specter's Ship - Cafeteria
John rounded a corner, and stopped to take in everything he was seeing. Oxygen levels seemed to have completely gone at this point, and as he looked about, he noticed a massive spherical robot of some kind taking up most space in what appeared to be the ruins of a cafeteria. To his left, he could see a massive gaping hole in the ship to open space. His sensors picked out Kale just outside, her body engulfed in some sort of aura- a beam of some kind, reeling her in to yet another ship, this one bigger than the one they were currently on. He couldn't do anything for her in his position, and a scan of her quickly told John that she wasn't currently conscious. As he looked on, he could see that whatever battle that had been taking place here seemed to be dying out.
Flynn, or 'Doom' as the Engineer-like alien had referred to him as, seemed to be in the process of being crushed by one of the mechanical arms, pushing down on him. Flynn's helmet was gone, meaning he was completely susceptible to the zero oxygen. If it was the lack of oxygen or the force being exerted by the Omnidroid on Flynn, either way, he was out cold, his red face beginning to lighten as his body relaxed, his features going slack. That was when the spherical bot seemed to curl up, and starting rolling about into the walls, banging into them for some reason. As long as it wasn't focused on the Chief, he wouldn't dwell on it.
John also noticed another man donned in some kind of red biker suit lying nearby, sprawled out, clearly out of it. Was he an ally? That was unclear, but it seemed this robot was the main enemy, meaning Flynn could have been supported by him, making the man an ally.

------------

"Luis?"
Hank lifted his head from the steering wheel. The van was pretty totaled from... whatever the hell had just happened. It was on its side, and Hank was still strapped in. He felt blood running down his face, but paid it no attention as he turned his head, wincing as he did so, to look in the back, where both Luis and the random monkey were out cold. They didn't appear to be dead, so that was a plus.
The crackling monitor in the van then lit up, and some other ugly ass character appeared. Hank had to assume this was an associate of the Krak thing from earlier. It began to talk, speaking of a hero or something, Hank didn't really care at the moment. He had more important matters- not to mention the fact it was getting harder to breath. With each second, he could feel the oxygen leaving the air around him. He was aware a lack of oxygen would kill him- knock him out first, though. Like hell he'd die small. If there was the chance he and Luis could get pulled to safety, it'd only be if they were back to normal size.
He found the van's installed size capabilities, and found it very difficult to raise his arm, and press down on the button he'd designated for enlarging. His vision grew dark as he saw the ground disappear as the van grew to normal size, before blanking out completely.

------------

John was about to move in to try and pull out Flynn as the Omnidroid suddenly started to jerk about, its rotary head swirling about in some kind of robotic confusion, one of its arms bursting with a small explosion. Seemed to become self destructive for whatever reason- but Flynn was out of it and in need of some classic rescuing, one which it seemed only John was capable of.
However, he was stopped as a large screen nearby flickered on, showing an... odd individual, though he vaguely resembled the being they'd crossed earlier. Clearly in league with him. He mentioned Hiro, which was the true reason why John stopped. Chief still had no idea where Hiro was, all he'd gotten was word that he'd taken on that mechanical bird alone. The screen panned out to reveal a team of four individuals, one of which Chief recognized as the one he'd fought just minutes prior. They introduced themselves. J, G, Meta, and Krak. The camera continued to pan out to reveal Hunter and Cutman- alone to take these four on. The screen turned off as John grit his teeth. There was too much happening all at once, and he felt a massive part of this was lifted up on his shoulders. He had to save these people, get past this robot, then help his weakened allies take on four individuals which he assumed were powerful, considering how J had talked them up. Best to overestimate than underestimate.

He was stopped in his tracks once again as a white van suddenly appeared out of nowhere. Literally nowhere. John blinked, feeling his heart race as another variable was thrown into the mix. For once- he was beginning to long to be back on High Charity, destroying the entire Covenant Empire from within.
But no. This was the here and now. He needed to remain focused and strong. Everyone was depending on him- literally. The van was closest, and it seemed pretty wrecked. In just a couple strides, he reached it at inhuman speeds, grabbed the handle of the mangled door, and ripped it off without straining a muscle, throwing the door away one-handed, his helmet's flashlights kicking on with just a thought.
Inside, he could see two individuals in the back, one in the front, all out cold. He didn't have time to wonder how long they'd been out. Quickly, he moved in, grabbing the first two individuals and hoisting them over his shoulders before reaching and and grabbing the old man in the front, pulling him out as carefully but quickly as he could, before leaving the van, making a dash back down the hall.
Hunter and Cutman appeared fine when it comes to oxygen when Chief had seen them on those screens, meaning they had oxygen, something these three needed. In record time, John had returned to the odd teleportation device, and quickly tossed the three in. He tried to be careful, but he was in a dire situation, and time was running out. The three disappeared, but he got a glimpse of one of them... it looked like a monkey.
He shrugged it off, and sprinted back to the cafeteria with just two more people to grab.

Frisk
Far East - City of Mercy
Jet had dashed off before Frisk could tell him otherwise. She could handle this, and she knew Blaze couldn't wake up from traditional means. Not with something like this. This was a psychological prison, something water can't solve. The only way to SAVE her was to enter the subconscious, as she'd done with Alphys and Jet. Frisk took note that she hadn't been given a chance to SAVE Maxwell. This meant that either he was impossible to scare, or just completely impossible to subdue mentally, or perhaps his traumatic events weren't quite as severe as Blaze's. Both weren't saved, but both were in completely positions at the moment.

She then heeded Silver's questions. Keeping her composure, she turned her head to look at him. "My SOUL is capable of a lot of things. A lot I still don't understand, but clearly He did. That's beside the point. I can SAVE her, but I can't conjure her SOUL. Wherever we are seems to be negating this." The child explained quickly, before her own red SOUL appeared in front of her. "Mine, meanwhile, can be produced. I need to find alternatives to get into her subconscious and break her free from the psychological prison she's been encased in..." She paused, narrowing her already rather narrow eyes at Silver.

"You have psychic abilities. You can put me there, right?"

Rick Grimes
Far East - Fenrir Training Room
From post-apocalypse to post-apocalypse, it seemed these were the lives that best suited Rick Grimes, leader of- well... ex-leader of Alexandria. Now he was here, with some kind of... thing inside of him known as an Aragami that enables him to kill the same things. Killing fire with fire. As the two talked, Rick found his thoughts drifting back, away from this new world he was growing accustomed to, and back home...
And that was when he noticed it. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw someone else in the room. He did a double-take, quickly looking toward the character, who remained there. He recognized them immediately. Negan. Rick's brow furrowed as he glared at the man. Negan wore a blue jumpsuit, his hair shaved, his head nearly bald, and his beard several inches thick and graying badly. He stared back at Rick with a smirk on his face. "Hey, Rick." He grinned.

Lenka and Tsubaki made no reaction to the voice Rick had just heard, and he knew he was no stranger to... hallucinations. He always had them in times of great emotional stress, and this new world seemed to be affecting him more than he would have liked to admit. So much was happening so fast, and he barely had time to digest new information until he learned something new.
Rick made no reply to Negan, still staring at the ex-savior. The man he'd slit the throat of. The man he'd locked up for nearly two years. "What, not even a hello?" Negan asked, still grinning as he started to walk toward them, a swagger in his step. His voice had grown scratchy and cracked since his defeat at Rick's hand. Some of that probably had to do with the throat-slitting.
Still, Rick made no reply, simply glaring at Negan. Lenka and Tsubaki still did nothing, confirming to Rick that this wasn't real. That Negan wasn't really here. "So. Why'd you leave?" Negan asked, coming to a stop in front of Rick. "Get tired of playing leader? Sick of hearing everyone praise you day in and day out? What, you think you're too good for that?" He chuckled, biting his lip as Rick remained stoic and still, though his breathing had quickened.

"Judith is forgetting you." Negan said, narrowing his eyes, staring directly into Rick's, who didn't flinch away as he once had. "Everyone is. You're becoming a distant memory, Rick. You know, Judith..." Negan rubbed his chin, smirking. "She's growin' up real fast. Sometimes, she'll come to my cell window, and I'll help her with her homework."
This got a rise out of Rick, who clenched his teeth, letting out a little huff, which Negan reacted to with another lip bite, sucking in slightly, letting out a tiny squeaky sound. "Oh, did I hit a nerve?" He asked. "Does it make you upset that I'm being a better father to your kid than you? Look at you. You're alive, but not around. What does that say?" At this, Negan took another step toward Rick, getting into his personal space, standing half a foot taller than Rick, grinning down at him. "What, are you too afraid to come back?"
"I don't have a choice." Rick spat, breathing heavily, finally verbally reacting to his hallucination. Negan blinked, still grinning as he stared at Rick, before leaning back slightly. "We all have a choice Rick. You showed me that. Like your choice to keep me alive. You could have let me die right there, but you didn't. Instead, you kept me around as an example. I watched as your world grew, Rick. As Carl's dream-"
"Don't you say his name." Rick growled, taking a step toward Negan, but at that moment, he realized there was nobody there. He suddenly became self-conscious, trying to calm his breathing as he turned his head to look back at Tsubaki and Lenka, who'd stopped conversing to look at Rick in confusion and bewilderment.

Negan
Camelot - Throne Room
Sam left, and the kid demanded his... card. Negan furrowed his brow in slight confusion. The hell did this kid want with cards? He clearly seemed to cherish his cards, but the way he was acting... It was almost as if his life depended on getting those cards back. He chose to say nothing to this once again as he looked at Sonic for his response.
And respond, Lancelot did. A short back and forth went on between him and the King, before Sonic finished his proposal to Noah. Negan didn't really see much of an issue with the ordeal. If he was in the kids' shoes, he'd take the offer. Especially after seeing that display of power Sonic had shown off just earlier.
However, this kid hadn't seen that, and he wasn't Negan, so whatever choices he'd make were on him and nobody else.

Snake, Bro, Sans
Camelot Castle - Refugee Camp
Snake let out an unintelligible mumble, borderline growl, before stalking toward an available room, snatching a piece of the white chalk. "Probably won't need a room." He muttered to himself, and toward Raiden as he put down their names. 'Jack' and 'David'. He then tossed the chalk aside and turned to his companions, folding his arms. "Where to from here?" He asked. Sans only offered a shrug in reply before walking toward another available room, marking down his own name in all lowercase, finishing with a period at the end.
The skeleton set down the piece of chalk, staring for a moment at his name, half expecting his younger but taller brother to strut into the hall, grandiosely snatch the piece of chalk and dramatically write his name down above Sans' in all caps before proclaiming to the group that this was he and his brothers' room.
He smirked a bit, knowing that'd be exactly what Papyrus would do... if he were here. However, he wasn't, so Sans would be alone, which he was cool with. He liked it better that way, anyway. It allowed him to think out loud, mull things over and the such. "whelp. i'm boned out." He stated, turning to look back at the others. "i think i'm gonna rest my eye sockets a bit." With that, he entered his new temporary room, closing the door behind him.

------------

"Yeah, that sounds cool." Bro replied, happy to turn off the subject of Lil' Cal's apparent badness that everyone seemed to sense. "Pretty sure the King dude mentioned something about rooms. Let's get one of those first so I can put up Cal before I join you." He said, nodding with his head in the direction Artemis had been coming from just earlier.
Without another word, he began making his way down the hall, still holding tightly onto his katana and Lil' Cal's arm.

Artemis
Camelot Castle - Dining Hall
"She's an adventurer." Artemis stated to Joseph, giving Serena a fond smile. "Something I hope to do one day- if this already isn't an adventure, already." She turned her head to look at Joestar, narrowing her eyes slightly. Almost scrutinizingly, though it was obvious she was having difficulty trying to appear as friendly and non-condescending as she could. "What was it you do, Joseph?" She asked. "You mentioned something in our earlier fight about 'standing'?" She cocked an eyebrow.

Darth Vader
Camelot Castle
The sith lord intended to simply ignore Sam as he passed. He had no reason to bother engaging in conversation with the android, whome Vader was already disgusted with thanks to his mechanical augmentations. He was an abomination against nature, and it make the dark lord sick. It was when Samuel made physical contact with Vader that the sith become furious with him. Just as Sam was about to exit through the gate, he was suddenly hoisted into the air as he felt his throat being constricted by an invisible force. Darth Vader had stopped walking, and was now standing with his back to Sam, who was suspended in the air by the force, being choked by its power, unable to even make a sound.
"The child is of no concern to me." Darth Vader stated, still keeping his back to Sam. "Neither are you. You can continue to play as Negan's lap dog. I, meanwhile, have more important things to attend." Sam then dropped to the ground as Vader relinquished his hold, now turning to face Sam. "We are not friends. We are not even allies. Touch me again, and I will show you why you should fear the dark side."
With that, Vader turned, his cape billowing behind him as he walked away, each step he took seemed confident, yet powerful as he dismissed Sam.

The throne room was just ahead.

Chara
Goldenwalk - Business Quarter
Chara let out a chuckle as she followed Cecil, listening to him rant, finally finishing with a direct question. One which she had an answer to. Even if he wasn't the highest up of the commanders, she could get what information she could out of him. He clearly seemed to be under the impression he had control over the situation. Amusing.
"I wasn't mocking you, Cecil." She stated, her ever-present smile still plastered on her face. "I was merely making intelligent observations. You provided the insight to allow me to correct myself. So, by your word, I can believe in the existence of your master, Zeliyis. By your admission, he is more powerful than any of us, yes?"

She did not await a response just yet. She noticed his bitterness over his own situation of personal power- something she intended to exploit. "Though, on a different topic, I couldn't help but notice... how bitter it made you to admit just exactly how powerless you are. Not only compared to your master, but compared to the other leaders. The commanders. You're merely a stepping stone, aren't you? Your position of power has to do with the fact they pity you- but they won't rid you. Not yet. You still serve a purpose, don't you? You don't need to powerful to be a good tactician." She walked forward a few paces to stand beside him as they walked. "What will happen to you when Zeliyis wins? What use will he have for a general of war when there's no war left?"

Logan
Goldenwalk - Sewers
Toph quickly squirmed out of Logan's grasp, and for a moment, he was confused as to why, even with the limp in his run, before turning to watch as two pillars slammed up into the collapsed rubble. Spider-Man was still in there. "Shit." Logan muttered, marching past Toph toward it as the pillars offered support. His claws shot out of his right hand as he brought it up to slash apart a boulder in his way, his claws tearing through, but not by much. He slashed twice more, reducing down the boulder enough to see Spider-Man struggling with some rocks. "C'mon, kid. Neither of you can hold this thing forever." Logan growled, sheathing his claws and offering a bloodied hand.

Spider-Gwen
Goldenwalk - Business District
She felt the earth shattering beneath her as an invisible force slammed her into the ground. She could feel her spine bending on impact, on the verge of breaking. The Ghost Spider quickly swept up to her feet, leaping backward and above a massive boulder that shattered into the ground where she'd been lying just seconds prior. The area was too open, she had to find cover. Somewhere she could swing from on webs, try and keep an advantage.
She cast a glance toward the being she was fighting in time to see someone hurtling toward her, slamming into her gut, too fast for her spider-sense to detect as the both of them tumbled out of the air. She fell to the ground, slamming into it once again, feeling her arm strain, the metal creaking... when the hell did she get a metal arm? When the hell did she lose her arm!?
Gwen turned her attention from her arm to the man lying on his back beside her, his head twisted at an odd angle, his eyes vacant and staring at her. She felt like she knew him... but at the same time, she couldn't recall a name. His black hair was a frenzy, and the orange clothing he wore was in tatters.

She got to her feet once again, backing away from the dead man, before looking back to her opponent, though she couldn't see him through the cloud of dust that had erupted around him and those he still fought. She could hear screams, cries of pain, and every so often one of her allies would go flying out of the dust, dead.
Still, she recognized nobody. Gwen let out a shaky breath as she shook her head, preparing to leap back into the fray, but found herself unable to do so as the ground beneath her split in half. Her eyes widened beneath her tattered mask as she leaped up, the earth literally SPLITTING in HALF. Subconsciously, she fired a string of webbing to the ground, yanking herself to it to prevent cascading down into the depths of the planet.

------------

With a quick intake of air in the form of a gasp, Gwen sat up from her position on the ground, eyes wide. The sound of fighting continued in the background as she felt her body for a moment, clutching her chest, then absorbing her surroundings, finding that what she'd just been in... it had just been a bad dream. A very vivid bad dream. She still had her fleshy arm, and wasn't about to get swallowed up by the earth literally cracking open like an egg.
That was when she looked to her right to see some... dude... fighting her buddies. Even Scythe was there, much to Gwen's delight as she shoved that weird dream into the back of her mind, about to get up to greet her new friend despite the circumstances, before wincing as pain shot up her back. She'd forgotten about her recent wound, and that thing stung like a bitch.

"Okay... easy, Gwen..." She muttered to herself, turning herself over onto her knees to get to her feet in a less painful manner, though much slower, wincing as she did so. "I am not ready for a fight... crap..." She looked up from the ground at Scorpio as he took on three of her companions. Just great. A super villain. Gwen had never seen him before either, so there weren't any corndog happenings between the two of them. Steadying herself, she took in a deep breath of air, before raising her arm, aiming carefully. She wouldn't be of much help in hand-to-hand at the moment, but a well-placed web could really provide the group with a lot of help.
Gwen fired several globs of webbing aimed toward Scorpio's feet with the intent to immobilize him, which would allow the others a much needed advantage. "Hi guys. How's it going?" She asked, announcing her presence and consciousness to the others.

Vriska
Sequin Land - Risky's Ship
While most would be disturbed, or worse, by Rottytops and her addiction to brains, Vriska clearly didn't seem to mind it in any way, even at the zombie's new desire for Alternian brains, or alternatively named, 'Troll' brains. However, the conversation shifted when the announcement of their destination was shouted over Rottytops' words, and the distant land of Mermaid Falls neared ever closer. Vriska grinned as she looked over the water toward it, placing her hands on her hips. "Oh, I hope we get to fight some pirates." She paused, before turning to Rottytops. "Hey, is there like, a sword here I can have? I'd really like one."

Atriox
Balaho
The modified Covenant Phantoms of the Banished Faction were certainly far more intimidating in appearance- and arguably more like forerunner technology than what the Covenant possessed. In design, at the very least. Rather than going for the curvy, sleek design, the Banished modified their phantoms to be a lot more agile, edged, and overall more proficient in any given situation.
The one Atriox rode in zoomed down into Balaho, whipped about by snow and wind, but the phantom held strong as the ground approached. "Keep the guns aimed away." Atriox barked over his comms to the driver of the Phantom- another jiralhanae. "We don't want to scare them more than we already have."

The Phantom ceased its descent, hovering above compact snow before the bottom dispensed three figures- one much larger than the other two. All three jiralhanae, wearing specialized suits and helmets with armored oxygen tanks strapped to their backs to provide them with oxygen in Balaho's methane-rich atmosphere that the unggoy species thrived on.
Atriox took the lead, marching forward, carrying his personalized gravity hammer, named 'Chainbreaker'. The two other Brutes behind him were armed with simple spikers, and trudged forward at Atriox's heel as he marched forward, toward a defensive line of grunts, all staring at the jiralhanae in fear, clearly intimidated as their weapons they had trained on the Banished soldiers shook.
"I request an audience with Yapyap." Atriox stated, stopping in front of the defensive line as the two jiralhanae stopped behind him, standing defensively on either side of him. "I do not come here seeking conflict." The leader of the Banished finished, setting chainbreaker's head down in the snow, and using the top of the handle as a sort of arm rest.

 

[Shen: King of Digimon]

Name: Pipotrons, Specter, Timeman
Location: Specter’s Ship


J turned to the side, noticing new arrivals in the teleportation device behind Cutman and hunter. Luis, hank, and a Pipo monkey flung into the open. J seemed to be silently pleased by their arrival, although Krak seemed to get a burst of energy upon seeing one of them.

“Hank, in the flesh!” Krak groaned. “You look a lot less in control in person! Kekekeke...!”

“Glad you could make it in person.” J stated. “Humans and...hm?”

The pipotrons monkey gasped awake, it’s eyes flapping open as it received its iconic smile. It jumped up, clapping and hopping.

“Ukki ki!”

“Gruhhhhh!” G replied

“Ki, ki, ukki!”

“GRUH?? Gruhhh!”

“Rescued??” A familiar voice spoke.

Suddenly, krak’s own screen was hijacked. Specter appearing on it with an intrigued but also disturbed expression. Meta looked back in surprise.

“S-Specter, Gari?!”

“Ukki ki ki ukk!”

“This is most...curious. Krak!”

“Keke...Yes specter?”

“Send this monkey to me at once.”

“Alright, alright fine. Sheesh.”

Krak’s eye piece flew a thick shade of purple. And in an instant, the pipo monkey was gone, teleporter in a purple hue.

......


Where specter was, on the Bridge, The monkey teleported a few feet away from his chair, looking up at him and jumping up and down. Timeman seemed a bit perturbed by this, as he wasn’t entirely sold on the primate superiority ideology specter was advertising.

“Ukki ki ukki Ukki!”

“It’s okay, Calm down, you are safe. start from the beginning.”

Timeman presses several buttons, drones in the HQ assisting in what he was doing. The bridge disconnected from the main ship, revealing several impulse thrusters behind it. They began to fire a stream of thrust, propelling the newfound golden bridge pod towards a floating humanoid in the vacuum. Upon getting closer, this individual was Kale, eyes closed and floating.

“Are you sure that bringing that...THING on board the bridge segment of the ship is the smartest idea? This is the most vital-“

“Certain of it, Timeman.”

Timeman rolled his eyes, driving a temporal arrow into the wall behind him as he activated the buttons. Soon, a tractor beam activated, pulling Kale towards the underbelly of the bridge. Soon, she was encased in an hidden transparent airlock that slowly rose into the center of the room. Specter, still hearing the monkey’s tale, whipped his chair over to face Kale. Presseing a hand on the glass, he saw his own reflection looking back on him.

“Tell me again...who rescued you?”


Name: Rex Raptor
Location: Wilds

Rex blushed slightly upon Erza seeming to lighten up, at least a little bit. It felt gratifying to the sink duelist for him to actually make headway with Erza. Sweet! Maybe that’s the hard part over with! Now all I gotta do is-“

"Well, those dinosaurs should come in handy. Perhaps I'll spar with them to get them fine tuned,same with you Keda.”

.....what.

Rex hadn’t expected THAT response. Maybe he went a little overboard... he rubbed the back of his neck, looking over to the side. You’ve done it now Rexy. You painted yourself as a punching bag.

“I uh....of course!” Rex changed his stance, putting his hands on his hips. “My dueling Dino’s will tear anyone who faces them to shreds! You might not want to face their true night if you want to make it out in one piece!”



Name: Belowski
Location: Camelot

Seeing Lancelot leave in such a hurry, Belowski ogled the red and black stream the hedgehog knight left behind.

“That’s a colorful aura...far out...”

Belowski then turned to caulifa who seem frustrated and angry that Lancelot had left. Belowski looked up at her and examined her expression, almost getting lost in it.

“Huh...so if your zen is doin’ a battle...why don’t we have a little duel?” Belowski smiled up at her. “It would totally be bad karma if I just left without trying to help.”

At that point, Belowski lifted a folded up duel disk with the same smiling expression, even though Caulifa probably didn’t know what it was.



Name: YapYap
Location: Balaho


“Uhhhh....yapyap no is home, leave a message after the beep!” One of the grunts said.

“It’s funny cause we ain’t gonna make a beep sound.” The second grunt whispered a bit too loudly.

That’s when a grunt goblin cage up from around the corner, escorted by a pair of methane wagons. They stopped shortly behind the grunt line.

“Not Here for the the fightin’ fights? That’s not what you said to pipbalap when you banished bosos tossed him against the shield and made him pop!

“Y-Yeah, Yeah!” A Methane wagon driver agreed sheepishly. “Like you brute warts killed like a thousand grunts to death just by choking them last week! I mean...I don’t know PERSONALLY, yipbap told me that. But it’s probably true!”

The grunt goblin aimed it large needles towards the approaching brutes.

“Come any closer, and i’ll Blast you to sky high! Haha! Please do! I’ve waited all month for this!” The goblin’s announcement voice Beamed.


Name: Contessa
Location: Vriska’s ship.

The Contessa cocked her head as the mermaid pirate declared they were there. The spider looked about, not noticing anything too peculiar...considering the world they were in. She turned to the zombie and troll.

“Green one, You are certain...?”

 

[comic]

Atriox
Balaho
Atriox raised a lone brow, looking almost lazily toward the Goblin as his body guards both growled, taking steps forward, but halted as Atriox raised his left arm, signaling them to stop. "Very well. Then deliver a message to YapYap for me, if he isn't already listening." He smiled slowly, pulling back his lips to show his row of jagged, flesh-tearing teeth.

"You have limited choices. You can stay, you can flee... or you can join me. If you stay, the Flood will arrive and consume your entire species, leaving nothing but more of them. You can flee, but the Flood's ships are faster than any of ours. The best we can do is fight back- which is where the third option comes in. I can assure you as a species that you will be spared from the wrath of the Flood if you join the ranks of the Banished. I am working to unite all living creatures against the Flood... and you are my last stop. The Covenant are no more. I now control them. The entire sangheili race is mine. Even the humans have agreed to the terms of an alliance with us in the face of total annihilation. If you reject my offer... you will find that you have made the self-destructive decision. I offer you the choice of free will, however."

Atriox then picked up chainbreaker and turned away, giving a slight nod to his companions, who turned away as well, walking back toward the Phantom. "I leave you with these words, unggoy. Make the correct decision, and you might just survive this infestation."

 

[Skittles09]

The defeat of both Darkbeasts was a spectacle to behold as the werewolf successfully removed the last of the bullets, feeling her wounds heal with little to no problem. Her muscles and bones began to shift and move under the skin as her body steadily resumed human form. It was almost as painful as transforming for the first time, but she had become accustomed to such pain to where it did not bother her as much.

Tattered shreds of cloth that used to be her clothes were all that remained to conceal most of her human body, which would be replaced with new clothes she had brought along. Unfortunately, this caused Shaynuh to take notice of her missing backpack as her mind began to race with panic. She was more concerned about her cards and knife instead of the clothes, attempting to figure out where to start looking for her pack just to retrieve what she deemed was important to her.

However, the appearance of more Darkbeasts changed her mind, having to put off the search until she had the opportunity to do so. Hearing talk of retreat from Eileen and Akame was obviously a wise choice as Shaynuh immediately took off running in the opposite direction of the Darkbeasts. She was never one to wait for others as the instinct for survival was the one thing on her mind.

 

[Ariados twice]

At this point, the aforementioned backpack was in Ali's possession. It was over her shoulders. She looked over what appeared to be a hoverboard of some kind. Volpa had moved to a different area, experimenting with the high caliber sniper scythe.

Noah Kaiba
Camelot Throne Room
Noah stared boredly at Percival for a moment, disregarding her speech as it was made clear that the blue hedgehog was the one in charge. He had no time to waste on his underlings, if that was the case. He then looked at the blue one- King Sonic, was it?- as he began to request Noah return to the dungeon.

“Hah! Laughable!” Noah said at King Sonic’s request. “Imprisonment is no fate for someone like me. I am the heir of KaibaCorp, you fool!”

Sonic blinked, and was about to say something, but Noah spoke first.

“However, perhaps we can work out a deal if your heart is set on this trial,” Noah grinned, crossing his arms. “I refuse to be imprisoned. But I will return here in the morning so that I can debunk Percival’s idiocy.”

“And how do we know you’ll return?” Percival fired back, clearly finding the suggestion bogus.

“Because you have something I want,” Noah smirked. “Why would I break out of that cell to get cards I didn’t care about? Those cards mean a great deal to me, even beyond mere sentiment.”

“That won’t ensure your return!” Percival countered.

“What do you say?” Noah asked the king, disregarding Percival as he extended his hand. “Do we have an agreement?”

Sonic stared blankly at the teal-haired boy for a few seconds, before relenting. He extended his own hand, and in a polite manner, shook Noah’s.

“Deal.”

Noah resisted the biting urge to chuckle. That’d been easy- but he wasn’t complaining. If Percival had been the one making the choice… he had a feeling things would have become violent.

“If that’s all, I’ll be leaving now,” the young Kaiba appeared satisfied with the outcome. He walked toward the throne room exit.


Maxwell
If Maxwell had noticed that Jet had taken his backpack, he probably would have taken off running after him.

But he didn’t notice.

So instead, he began to write in his notebook. Ever so slowly, and the outcome appeared to be the ones he hoped when he took his time- he was successfully able to write ‘sword’ as a test. A sword appeared on the ground next to him.

But something was still holding him back. The memories he’d seen had definitely messed with his head, and now he didn’t know what to feel. It’d been so long since he’d felt- and all he could feel was… emptiness. Nothing. It was a disgusting feeling.

He glanced over at his… fellow stragglers. One of them appeared to be unconscious- the girl from earlier with the red shields seemed concerned, but an unconscious person was an easy fix.

Something was urging him to do the right thing.
Like a voice in his head.
It sounded like Lily...
Might as well…?
With a sigh, Maxwell stood, approaching the scene. It wasn’t like anything he’d encountered- to be fair, there weren’t humanoid-like animals in his world... unless he chose for that to be so. But these characters were still so strange.

“What’s its name?” he demanded, to nobody in particular, pointing down at Blaze.

Nanashi
At first, Nanashi thought this large- turtle thing- was joking. He was hardly one to be bossed around, especially by a stranger who appeared to be something of a... dull one.
He opened his mouth to speak, but before he could, he felt a very familiar presence. In a flash of green aura, a figure appeared beside Nanashi, armored and glaring, there stood Dagda.
“It’d be wise of you to hold your tongue,” Dagda informed Bowser, casting glares towards him, and a glance at Azula. He then pointed towards Nanashi.
“This one is mine to order, and mine alone. I don’t want to hear any more demands from you, turtle.”
Nanashi swallowed. Dagda barely even intervened directly with situations like this- and when he did, things could get pretty ugly. This- Bowser, was it? He didn’t know Dagda, so Nanashi only hoped that the creature’s will to live outweighed his pride.

 

[Shen: King of Digimon]

Balaho


As atriox turned to leave, a noise was heard. The rattling of metal and the clanking of servos. Suddenly, a covenant alloy covered pillar rose from the ground, hastily painted a green color. It hoisted a view screen resembling one that would be found on an SDV corvette’s bridge. The view screen lit up, a dark shadow casted over it, an opera of grunts being heard in the background as the dark shadow was of an unngoy with a crown upon his head.

“Is this thing on?” YapYap mumbles before clearing his throat. “Ahem. BEHOLD! The grunty mistro has arrived! The Illuminary, Yayyap, THE DESTROYER!”

The grunt opera in the background played a makeshift version of the halo theme, similar of how the shan’shyuum used to sing it.

“Why fight if you can always run away? Worked with us against you brutey bumbos, didn’t it?” Yapyap spoke oh so bravely. “There be plenty of other galaxies for grunts to go.”

 

[Mechanist Gamma]

Specter's Ship
Cut Man had remained silent through the discussion, attempting to hide his injury by facing towards them from the side. But surely, Krak already knew... He glanced around at the monitors, attempting to take in all the information possible, before Hunter set flame to the floor.
After tackling Cut Man, Hunter laid out their situation. "I've got two built-in trump cards, but they won't help here." Cut Man said. "All I've got are my Rolling Cutters, Item 1, Item 2 and Item 3."
Then his brain started working. "Wait, that plasma. What happens if we destroy the container itself?" He was too focused to think about Saru-4, though the station didn't escape his notice. That was a different can of worms entirely.
That's when the two humans warped in. A monkey was with them for a second before it vanished.
First Law of Robotics: A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.
"Damn it!" Cut Man said, dashing forwards. He grabbed the Mexican man with his still operational arm, using his relatively superhuman mechanical strength to grab him by the shirt and toss him over to Hunter. He picked up the older man and carried him over, holding him under his arm. "Look, we don't know who these guys are or why they're here, but our enemy hates humans, so we're keeping them safe." He assumed Hunter wouldn't understand the Laws of Robotics, so this was the best reasoning he could give for why they should help them.
As soon as Cut Man reached Hunter, he checked their vitals. Unconscious, but not dead. Their hearts were beating. Oxygen was in the room, but...
"We need to get them air." Cut Man said. "Do you know CPR?"

Boom
Hope crashed into the side, letting out a gasp.
Boom
Hope attempted to fly away, but was quickly slammed into the side of the Omnidroid again.
Boom
Hope's back was flattened against the still-intact side she was up against. The Wasp let out a gasp as she attempted to stabilize herself. She fired off three more blasts before the Omnidroid slammed itself into the wall again, halting her assault.
I can't make any progress like this. I'm taking more damage than it, and I can't change my positioning. I need to stop it now.
But how...?
...
No, Hope. No. Nonono. That's a TERRIBLE idea.
...
Better than no idea.
Ensuring her regulator was still set to limit her to her normal height, Hope pushed herself off the wall as soon as the next hit came. She charged her hands with energy before slamming the button on her left hand, enlarging to normal size as she fired off a MASSIVE blast all around her, hoping to fry something major.
If this didn't work... she'd REALLY be in trouble.

"I know." the man said. "I'm here to help. As much as I can, at least."
The man held out his hand, and suddenly a large potion appeared in his hand. "This is a Potion, from Sequin Land. It will restore your stamina if you drink it. Consider it a gift, Hiro."
As he placed the potion down on the ground, he stood up straight. "My name is Flint. Put simply, I am the force responsible for ensuring my hyperverse remains intact. My daughter is currently in YOUR hyperverse, meeting with your friends and bringing them here. We're going to need your help, after all - and since I faltered enough to allow Zeliyis to reach your hyperverse, you need our help as well."

Yharnam
"Heh. Clearly, you haven't met a Belmont before." Trevor smiled as he returned to battle posture. The Morningstar whip cracked against the ground. "Come on then, you damn beasts! Let's see if you can-"
"NOPE! Running NOW!"
Trevor was taken off his feet as Sypha grabbed the back of his shirt and unleashed a wind spell, blasting off down the still-clear path that - unknown to them - the group had originally come from. Her priority right now was to get her and Trevor away from the beasts.

Camelot, Mountainside
Poor Sarah. The axe was stuck in the leg of the horse, dark smog seeping out. The horse whined. As the dark particles fell to the ground, Knights of the Underworld began to rise from them. A full knight soon formed, but was quickly cut down by Lucina, who aimed to strike her foe with a jump slash. King Arthur had avoided Flamebringer's attempted interception, and used Deathcalibur's edge to block Falchion's strike, before being battered with plasma fire. "ARGH!" The otherworldly nature of the King prevented him from taking major damage, but it did manage to pierce the armor, leaving a few holes purple smoke began to seep from.
Lora took this opportunity, shooting ahead. She leapt up onto the horse and unleashed a volley of kicks, using Wildfire Snap. King Arthur recoiled in pain, his horse bucking up and shaking Lora off.
Blade Combo: First Stage: Fire
Captain Falcon attempted to help out. He leapt up, charging up a punch. "FALCOOOOOOOOOON-"
*bang*
King Arthur merely smacked the man away with his gauntlet.

Camelot Castle, Refugee Camp
Shantae nodded. "Fine with me."
"Heheh!" Ruby chuckled at Yang's additions. "Now it'll stand out! How are we supposed to hide the best room in this place?" Ruby gave her sister a cheeky smile.
Tony looked around at his room and nodded. "Looks fine enough." He moved back towards Yang's trio. "You girls need a break? I'm headed off to the Blacksmith's."
"OOH! Nonono, I'm fine!" Ruby said, slightly jumping. "I'm ready to go take a look at all the awesome medieval weapons~"
"I can stay behind." Shantae said. "It'll do me good to get a bit more accustomed to where we are."

Camelot Castle, Throne Room
"My lord..."
Sonic looked over at Merlina, now that all that business was sorted out. "What's up?"
"I feel... a strong power coming this way." Merlina said, on edge. "Be wary."
Sonic slowly moved his hand to the hilt of his sword. Whoever this was... if they were hostile, there'd be trouble.

Camelot Castle, Dining Hall
"Actually, I'm a Hamon user." Joseph said. "An adventurer myself, you could say. Fighting vampires and Pillar Men and all that."
"Really? What were your adventures like?" Serena asked.
"Do you want the short version or the long version?"
"Uh... the short."
Joseph stopped his eating, putting down his fork.

Spoiler: (SPOILER WARNING) Parts 1 and 2 of JoJo's Bizarre Adventures Explained By Joseph Joestar

"Okay. So in 1868, my great-grandfather George Joestar discovered a stone mask, and on his return trip his carriage crashed. His wife died, but he and the baby survived thanks to a thief named Dario Brando. Twelve years later, Dario dies, leaving his son Dio to join the Joestar family alongside my grandfather Jonathan Joestar. But as it turns out, Dio is the BIGGEST bastard, and attempts to ruin Jonathan's life to take his family fortune! Jonathan still manages to get a girlfriend, my granny Erina, though Dio forces them to separate for a bit. Jonathan beats up Dio, and their rivalry is put on hold until 1888, when they seem to be friends but they actually still hate each other! Dio attempts to poison George to take the family fortune, but Jonathan discovers the poison and takes it to London to find a doctor who can identify it and charge Dio. Why did Jonathan discover the poison? Dario wrote George a letter detailing how he died, and the two father had the same symptoms, leading Jonathan to believe Dio had POISONED THEM BOTH! In London, he meets Robert E.O. Speedwagon, who joins him and helps him find the doctor. He returned to Liverpool to expose Dio, but as it turned out, Dio had been looking into that stone mask George found twenty years ago as a way to kill Jonathan! But Dio had a new plan - he put on the mask himself and tried to stab Jonathan, as putting blood on the mask would cause it to send spikes into the head of the person wearing it, TRANSFORMING THEM INTO A VAMPIRE! But George put himself in front of Jonathan, dying in his son's place! Jonathan and Dio battled across the Joestar mansion, and Jonathan set the estate aflame in an attempt to kill Dio, throwing him right into the burning inferno! Speedwagon saved Jonathan from the fire, and he healed up with the help of Erina - yes, the two successfully reunited!
"When Jonathan was healed, he encountered a man named Zeppeli, who taught my grandfather the art of HAMON! Why did he do this? Dio was ALIVE, having survived the fire! Jonathan, Speedwagon and Zeppeli formed a team to pursue Dio to Windknight's Lot and kill him for good. Zeppeli taught Jonathan Hamon for a reason - Hamon is a martial art capable of harnessing the power of the sun, being a surefire way to end vampires, zombies and all denizens of the night. Unfortunately, it was harder to kill Dio, since he had mastered his vampyric abilities to the degree that he was capable of freezing a foe on touch. With Zeppeli sacrificing himself to help Jonathan, Jonathan used the sword of Bluford - a knight he had to fight and redeemed the soul of, Speedwagon told me about that - to finally send a surge of Hamon right into Dio's body and end him! Thinking the fight was over, Jonathan married Erina and had a child with her. A year later, they took a boat to America, but as it turned out DIO WAS STILL ALIVE! Nothing but a head, Dio used a coffin and his last loyal zombie to sneak onto the boat, managing to kill Jonathan. The boat was doomed to sink, so my grandfather told Erina to take their child and another surviving baby and hide inside Dio's coffin, capable of ensuring their safety. With his last moments, he grabbed Dio's head and held him tight, ensuring Dio would have nowhere to go. My grandfather sank to the bottom of the ocean, saving my grandmother and the two children. They made it safely to America.
"Now we finally reach my adventures! First of all, at only 13 years old I save Speedwagon from a kidnapping. But that's nothing compared to what happens in 1938! First, one of Zeppeli's old friends, Straitzo, betrays Speedwagon and leaves him to die, taking one of the stone masks and becoming a vampire. He comes for me, but I manage to kill him. He tells me about the superior being to a vampire, a Pillar Men, who the Nazis are awakening in Mexico! I head there immediately, learning that Speedwagon is alive and helping Rudol von Stroheim to kill Santana, the Pillar Man. von Stroheim blows himself up in the fight, telling me of THREE OTHER PILLAR MEN in Rome, which Speedwagon and I head to find and stop from awakening. There I meet this royal prick named Caesar Zeppeli, the grandson of the Zeppeli who sacrificed himself for my father. After I put Caesar in his place, the three of us meet up with Caesar's friend Mark, a German Soldier who takes us to where the Pillar Men are. Unfortunately, by the time we arrive, they're ALREADY free! Mark is killed by Wamuu, leading me and Caesar to take him on. Unfortunately, I get badly hurt, and Wamuu threatens to kill Speedwagon. But I'm not about to let him kill SPEEDWAGON! I manage to lure the Pillar Man to a minecart, taking him far away from Speedwagon and in the middle of a Coliseum. I think I'm about to die, but manage to convince him to let me live by successfully predicting that he's a prideful warrior! Unfortunately, he wants to make sure I fight him in a month like I'm boasting I could, and puts a Wedding Ring of Death around my heart! To explain what that is, it's a ring filled with poison that will disintegrate in a given amount of time - namely thirty-three days - and the only antidote is kept close by the Pillar Men - in Wamuu's case, in his lip ring. Esidisi, the second Pillar Men, decides to join in, placing a Wedding Ring of Death around my throat. Kars, the leader and strongest of the Pillar Men, doesn't. They leave, and now that I know I'm in for it, it's time to get some training done!
"Over the next month, I train with Caesar under the tutelage of his mentor Lisa Lisa and her personal teachers Loggins and Messina in Italy. Those four weeks were the hardest I've ever trained, and it turned me into a fighting machine! Right before the final exam, though, Esidisi attacked Lisa Lisa's island in an attempt to retrieve the treasure she has that the Pillar Men want, the Red Stone of Asia! He kills Loggins, and I have to take him on alone in the dead of night! We're constantly outwitting each other, but I lead Esidisi into a trap, and slice his body to pieces with the Hamon-infused string of my wool hat! Of course, I take his antidote and remove the Wedding Ring of Death he placed in me, six days before it would have dissolved. I return to tell Lisa Lisa what happened, but Esidisi survived as just a brain, and takes control of Lisa Lisa's assistant Suzi Q! Caesar and I team up to destroy Esidisi without harming Suzi Q, and we manage to incinerate him in the sunlight. Unfortunately, he already sent of the Red Stone of Asia to his allies, so I, Caesar, Lisa Lisa and Messina all have to head out after the Stone! We manage to catch up with the train and attempt to retrieve the Stone, but a troop of German Soldiers got there first and took the Stone. We decide to parley, but Kars attacks during it, forcing the commander to reveal he's actually Rudol von Stroheim, still alive thanks to cybernetic implantations! He and I barely manage to fight off Kars and retrieve the Stone. The group arrives at Switzerland, where Esidisi sent the Stone, and discover a likely hideout for the remaining Pillar Men. I want to wait until we can draw them out, but Caesar decides to head in himself to take on the Pillar Men in an uncharacteristically hot-headed move.
"...he... didn't make it out..."
"Lisa Lisa and I return the injured Messina to our residence before heading in to find the Pillar Men, seeking revenge. Caesar left me his Hamon, Wamuu's antidote and his scarf, which I take into the fight. I decided not to take the antidote until I earned it and defeated Wamuu. We met with Kars and Wamuu inside, as well as their vampire army, and Lisa Lisa manages to bluff them into a controlled confrontation. The next day, we meet in a coliseum just outside of Switzerland, chosen by Wamuu to be our final battleground. I defeat him in a chariot race, finally taking the antidote and give him the respect he earned as a warrior. When it comes time for the fight between Kars and Lisa Lisa, however, the coward cheats by using a body double and stabbing Lisa Lisa from behind! Enraged, I go to save her, and have to fight Kars. I seemingly beat him by impaling him on spikes, saving Lisa Lisa and allowing the Speedwagon Foundation and Stroheim's brigade of German Soldiers to arrive and help! Unfortunately, Kars took the Red Stone of Asia from Lisa Lisa, using it in tandem with a special stone mask and Stroheim's UV Cannon to have the mask pierce his OWN head and transform him into the ultimate being! Now faced with Perfect Kars, I'm in trouble, but with the help of Stroheim I lead him to a volcano and slam him right into it! He manages to survive by creating armor, though, punching through the rock underneath me and arising in just the right spot to cut off my hand! It's why I have a mechanical one. Kars can even use Hamon now, so how am I supposed to beat him?!
"I'll tell you how! Instinctively, I raise the Red Stone of Asia, causing the light beam it creates to fire into the volcano, activating it and launching both Kars and I into the sky atop a rock! I manage to choke Kars out with my severed hand, preventing him from flying away and having him be hit by a bunch of other rubble! AND I SEND THAT BASTARD INTO SPACE, WHERE HE FREEZES OVER FOR ALL ETERNITY!
"And yes, I did survive. I'm here, after all! The rock landed in the water and Suzi Q. nursed me back to full health after two weeks. I end up showing up to see everyone thinking I'm dead! I had a grave and everything! Can you believe it?! Oh, and Stroheim ended up getting me a new hand to replace my old one!
"So, that's my story. Quite the Bizarre Adventure, wouldn't you say? It'd make a hell of a comic book!"

"...whoa." was Serena's only response.

Goldenwalk Streets
"Wahahah!" Wario chuckled. "You like that, busters?!" The strong man struck a quick pose.
Suddenly, a blast of plasma struck against his skin, burning off some of his hair.
"Bad move."
The soldier responsible suddenly found himself implanted in the concrete that used to be beneath him, as Wario had dashed over and shoved him right into it. "You guys doing good?" Wario asked the group who was PRESUMABLY on the same side as him.
It seemed at least Lucario was, as he tore through the remaining soldiers. "Whoa! Calm down, jackal boy!" Wario waved.

Goldenwalk Sewers
Peter strained, feeling a bit less pressure as Toph lifted a good amount of the rubble. "Th-thanks..." he said. "I think I should be able to... I can... I can do this...!"
This was just like when Vulture had buried him less than a year ago. Hundreds of pounds of rock on his back.
He had lifted it then.
He could lift THIS.
Spider-Man, with a surge of adrenaline, roared as he pushed up the rubble, rising to his hands and feet. He shot a web out towards the ground at Toph's foot, yanking himself over as he allowed the rest of the rubble to fall down.
"Hah... hah... thanks..." Peter huffed, laying on the ground.

Goldenwalk Business District
Nathan's eyes opened at the sight of Scythe. "Didn't expect to see you back so soon." he commented.
Scorpio's tail flashed up, indeed curling around the scythe and stopping it. "...I didn't plan for you." he commented.
X understood her request, sending a fist flying right at Scorpio. Unfortunately, the general's tail flicked upwards, and he used Silver Scythe's weapon as leverage to launch himself back. The end began to glow as he landed, having avoided Gwen's shots.
"Good to see you're awake. You alright?" Nathan asked, taking cover as Scorpio fired off a laser blast.

Dreamland, Green Greens (Infinity Rift)
"...yes." Kris said. But this was something he'd been meaning to get off his chest for a while. Something he had been thinking about, but...
"Hornet, do you ever feel like... someone is controlling you...?"

"That's... entirely possible!" Maple said, snapping her fingers. "Maybe I can find it... It'd be easier if Shantae was here to give me a magic boost-"
Alpha gestured over to the alternate Shantae.
"Oh." Maple replied.

Far East, Fenrir Base, Training Room
"...Mr. Grimes, get a hold of yourself!"
"Rick! Hey!"
As Rick returned to reality, Lenka was gripping his shoulder. "What happened? Are you alright?"

Far East, City of Mercy
Before Soldier could walk off, Dell grabbed the back of his shirt. "Now hold up, Doe. Sure, it's POSSIBLE that Merasmus is responsible for this. I doubt it, though. What the hell would he even gain by stranding us here in the middle of nowhere?"
"I dunno, what would he gain by becoming Soldier's roommate?"
"I don't think that was his choice, Scout." Engie said. "And it wasn't magic. Not entirely, at least. That crystal was a localized wormhole and warp vortex. It's similar to a miniature, crystallized one-way teleporter. Hell, I could make one like it myself, if I had the right materials and time. ...a LOT of time."
"Wait, so it's NOT magic?" Scout asked.
"Yes." Engineer replied. "Moreso an advanced technology. But someone being able to do that, and using it indiscriminately like they are... I can't help but wonder what they're trying to accomplish."

"Focus, Silver. You can use your abilities for more than just throwing boxes around."
"The most I've ever been able to do is give someone a headache, Gold. YOU'RE the telepath."
"We both are. That's why I was able to connect with you. Now focus. Read me."
"I can try." Silver said. "I have some experience with telepathy, but it's never been my strong suit. But maybe it'd be easier with you." That SOUL of hers seemed to have some power that could link with his, and it stood out to her.
It was risky. He could hurt her if he did it wrong.
But he had to try.
Silver reached his hand out. Frisk's SOUL was suddenly illuminated with teal energy. Taking in a deep breath, he reached his hands down, cupping Blaze's head.
And he brought them in.

Blaze's Subconscious
"Pathetic. You can't even muster the strength to melt a single icicle."
Blaze let out a cough, falling to her knee. The cat was bruised and bloodied at this point, and Mephiles didn't even seem hurt.
"You're a failure." Mephiles chuckled. "You killed those you had no need to. You let those you needed to kill survive. You couldn't even hurt me, after everything I did, all the limits I pushed you to. You're PATHETIC, Blaze."
Blaze let her head fall, her eyes beginning to glaze over.
...was he wrong...?

Catgirl's Universe
Haze slightly flinched at Numemon's eager anticipation to get his hands on more weapons than she had ever wanted to see.

The Wilds, Star's Wand
The Nomad looked around with glee, shocked at how beautiful the inside of the wand was. When Spider With a Top Hat showed up, the Nomad eagerly took his hand and shook it before straightening his posture in preparation for the tour.

The Wilds, The Cliff
Keda nodded. "I agree. But it would be best to be well-rested for tomorrow. It's a long trip back to my village, especially if we do any training or hunting on the way."

Sequin Land, Risky's Ship
Risky jutted her thumb towards one of the Tinkerbats, who tossed over a blade. "Good luck out there." Risky said.
As soon as the anchor was dropped, Rottytops dashed out into the forest. "This is it! Let's go!" she said.

 

[Pro Hero Dekiru]

New Location:
The Blacksmith's Shop

The building was filled by the sound of a hammer striking hot steel.
A young, two-tailed fox lifted the goggles on his face, wiping sweat from his brow.
"Okay, that should do it."
The blade was quickly outfitted with a handle, guard, and pommel. Well, not as quickly as one might think. This was medieval times, after all.
The edge glowed a bright teal, with a gunmetal core. The blade was honed to a deadly edge. Forged with ores of normal and magical origins, this was yet another masterpiece created by the Blacksmith of Camelot. It almost rivaled the ultimate weapons he had made for the Knights of the Round Table.
After all, he had created Ddraig Goch; as well as all of the other non-sacred weapons wielded by the Knights of the Round Table. Even so, it was easy to mistake them as such.
"Spiral!"
"Yes?" answered a hedgehog, moving some metal around the shop.
"Try this one out. Tell me how it feels."
The Blacksmith, more commonly known as Miles, tossed his temporary companion the blade.
Examining the craftsmanship, Spiral ran his lightly-armored hand down the length of the sword.
The guard was a deep grey with a navy-bluish tint, with the blade itself the most stout at the center, widening not by curves, but by perfectly straight edges that angled beautifully, with intense line patterns running down the flat of the sword. The handle was wrapped in thin black leather strips, creating a diamond pattern down the length of the grip. The pommel was a simple jewel, adorned with gunmetal accents. The cross guard was simple, yet elegant with simple engravings across the middle.
"Incredible," Spiral remarked. "May I ask, who will be this blade's owner?"
Miles studied how Spiral held the sword. "Nobody, as of now. I've made and worked on some of the best blades in the kingdom; but nothing around here to show for it. Think of it as my own sword of identification."
Spiral nodded. "So, what do you want me to do with it again...?"
"Give it a swing. See how it feels."
"Are you certain?"
"Why not? I trust your grip."
Nodding, Spiral stepped into the most open part of the shop. Rolling the sword over his hand, he quickly swung it.
It traveled exactly where he wanted it to go, the edge leaving a colorful teal trail.
"It's impossibly well-balanced," he remarked, slicing the air a few more times.
Eventually, he was swinging at thin air as if he was fighting real opponents. Jumping, slashing, and swinging, Spiral eventually calmed himself, steadying his grip.
"Any thoughts?" asked Miles, intent on his opinion.
"...Best sword I've ever wielded. I bet I could take on a real knight with this thing!" He swung the sword a bit more. "But of course, that's probably just ego talking. Anyways, it perfectly balances fury and speed."
"Good. Now, could you polish the blade for me? I need to go grab some things in the back."
"Sure thing."
The Blacksmith left, leaving Spiral alone in the main room.

Sir Lancelot
Camelot Castle

Approaching the throne room, the knight quickly rushed to see what the commotion was.
"An intruder?" he thought, his skates carrying him to the door.
"Now then," he muttered. "We shall see what the commotion is--"
...
...
...Footsteps.
Lancelot turned, walking towards the noise.
However, something began to creep over him as he walked closer.
Something...
...something he could only describe as horrible.
An aura of pure negativity, as if a cold wind was rushing through his veins.
Gritting his teeth under his mask, Lancelot rose his hand, speaking two, soft words.
"Chaos Control."
He vanished, appearing back in the same spot, Ddraig Goch in his hand.
Lancelot sheathed both swords, walking closer.
Then, he saw him.
The source of this malice.
Cloaked in black, with a strange device on his chest.
The Knight of the Round Table could hear it from a mile away, it seemed; the strange sound of breathing.
No, that didn't sound like breathing. But...
He steeled his nerves, as he had done so many times before. But this time, it seemed much harder.
Even so, he had to fulfill his duties as a knight.
"You," he proclaimed. "You are walking in the halls of Camelot Castle, under King Sonic the Hedgehog's rule."
His eyes gleamed with the courage he had left, as cold as steel.
"State your name, master, and business in these walls."

Goku, Galacta Knight
Camelot Castle Training Grounds

Galacta Knight, upon seeing Lancelot leave, started to walk away.
"You heading off?" Goku asked. She nodded.
"If I am to be stuck here, I may as well see where I am stuck at."
Thinking on this, Goku grinned.
"That's a good idea. See if there are any other strong guys around here I can fight with!"

Hero Killer Stain
The Wilds

Stain glanced at the man's hand, eyeing him suspiciously.
"I have no interest to join an army," he simply stated. "I have my own ideals, and my own society to get back to."
The Hero Killer glanced around the environment.
"However," he continued. "it has become obvious we come from two very different places. It might be in our best interest to stick with each other; but just, and only, for now."
Stain sheathed his sword. "What do you have to say?"

Jet
Far East: City of Mercy

Finding nothing, Jet slammed his fists.
"Crap..." he thought. "Maybe I shouldn't have run off like that."
He summoned his crystal plate. "Maybe I should head back."
Then, he got an idea.
"Maybe... maybe something in my bag..."
His eyes widened at the realization.
"This--this isn't my bag."
Searching through, he pulled out some random items.
"What the--"
His hands closed around something. Something cold.
Gathering strength, he pulled it out, laying it on the floor.
...
It was a large stone statue.
Inspecting it, it was obviously of some girl.
Finding it strange, he backtracked.
"Wait, who's backpack is--"
Then it hit him.
It all made sense.
Recalling the plot of the game, Jet could understand it.
He grit his teeth, looking down.
"So that's what he wanted..."
...Damn it all.
He stuffed the statue back into the bag, shouldering it. He hopped back on the crystal slab, speeding back off to join up with the group.

UA Students, Ash, Soul, Young Link
Yharnam

Midoriya looked up, getting back to back with Uraraka.
"Right," he said. "Raitoningu!"
Dex sucked the last bit of energy out of the Darkbeast, the pile of bones simply falling over.
He discharged the excess energy--which was a lot--at the nearest Darkbeast.
"Damn it!" Dex cried, making his way to the others. He was obviously getting nauseous; the price he paid for using his powers so intensely.
Link made his way to the group, firing Sword Beam after Sword Beam. He spoke, the Fierce Deity talking in a strange voice; like the voice of an ancient god, dialed down so he could be understood.
"She is right. We must move."
He removed his mask, shrinking back to the size of a child. They were soon joined by Ash and Soul, who were forced back.
"How?!"
"We're surrounded!"
Midoriya watched, their group close together. They were all here; him, Uraraka, Raitoningu, Iida, Kacchan, Soul, Ash, Link, Eileen, Akame, that group from Marsielle, and the two that had helped out with the second monster.
Wait, where was the were--
"Could that be...?"
The rest of turned to see where Iida was pointing.
"Looks like she has the right idea," Todoroki remarked, sliding his right foot forward. From the point of contact from his boot to the floor, a stream of white frost sped towards the opening created by the two that had brought the second monster.
Once reaching the foot of the building, the frost erupted.
A massive glacier immediately blocked off that exit, a volley of opaque ice standing where the wrecked building once was. In fact, the ice itself climbed higher than the building, providing an above-adequate barrier that the Darkbeasts wouldn't be able to get through any time soon.
"Whoah!" Ash cried in delight at the performance. Todoroki exhaled, his breath visible.
"It should be bigger," he replied.
"It doesn't matter," Dex replied. "They're not getting past that."
"He's right," Iida exclaimed, pointing an open hand at the way they had came. "Now, we have to move before they get to us!"
He took off, most of everybody else wasn't far behind.

Meanwhile, Todoroki turned around to face the oncoming horde, jumping down and approaching.
Without a word, he slammed his right hand on the floor.
Waves upon waves of jagged ice crystals sprouted from the streets, spiking up and blocking the oncoming Darkbeasts.
"I'll hold them! Go!"
"But Todoroki--"
"Just run! I'll meet up with you later!"
Midoriya reluctantly turned, watching as Todoroki didn't even turn to look at him while he spoke.
"He... he can take care of himself," Midoriya assured himself.
Soul turned around, making sure everybody was with them.
His pure yellow eyes went wide as he noticed it.
He drew his bow, aiming at Midoriya's head.
Instinctively, Deku ducked, as the arrow sailed to hit a Darkbeast approaching the group.
"One got through!" he shouted to Todoroki, who immediately noticed it, followed by a second one.
Running to take care of it, the son of Endeavor was stopped by one of the two, as the other one approached the rest of the group.
He quickly stomped his foot to seal any other way for them to get to the streets, but not before three more jumped into the scene.
"Todoroki!" Midoriya yelled, starting to worry.
Starting to panic (albeit not showing it), Todoroki turned, realizing there was only one thing he could do.
He couldn't run to the others; they wouldn't be able to take on five; not by themselves. Midoriya's arm was still healing. If he fought back now, there was no telling what would happen to him.
Exhaling one last foggy breath, Todoroki sighed.
"I'm sorry."

Todoroki touched his hand to the floor, immediately building a wall that blocked the Darkbeasts from reaching Midoriya, as well as everybody else.
It also sealed him in with them.



"NO!!!" Midoriya shouted, proceeding to bang the Great Fairy's Sword against the ice, to no avail. Panicking, he looked up.
"FULL COWLING!"
He jumped, but not high enough. Deku desperately tried to climb the ice to get to his classmate on the other side, but slipped and fell, hitting the ground.
"NO, NO, NO!!!"
He jumped again, but still not high enough.
"TODOROKI!!!"


On the other side, Todoroki looked around at his five enemies, eyeing him.
"Well then?" he asked, swallowing what little fear he had. "What now?"


Still trying, tears were now forming around Midoriya's eyes.
"Damn it...! ONE HUNDRED PERCE--"
Somebody grabbed his arm.
"Are you insane?! You'll let them in!" Soul cried, holding back Deku's arm.
"I don't care! Todoroki--"
"Your friend made his choice!"
"I don't care! I-I can still save him! I have to! PLEASE!"
"It's either he goes down or we all die."
Overwhelmed with emotions, Midoriya snapped his arm free.


Todoroki dodged another attack, rolling under one of the Darkbeasts.
He turned, blasting fire at the group circling him.
The Hero-in-Training watched as the flames curled around the monsters, doing little to no damage.
"It's fine," he thought. "As long as they made it out."
One swiped at him, and Todoroki ducked underneath it, his jacket ripping.
"Damn," he muttered, sweat beading across his forehead.


Rapidly punching the ice over and over, Midoriya couldn't hold back tears as he continued to batter against the wall. Smart enough to head Soul's advice, he was only using ten percent of One For All.
"Come on, COME ON!!!" he cried.
This couldn't be happening. After everything, the USJ, the Sports Festival, Hosu, Kamino Ward, he couldn't let it end here.
Kirishima's words rang in his head.
"But I couldn't do anything, even after I heard my friend was being targeted! I couldn't do anything! I DIDN'T do anything! If I don't do anything now, how am I supposed to call myself a hero or a man?!"
Midoriya could now see where Kirishima was coming from.


Backed against the wall, Todoroki's shirt sleeve was burned off, and his jacket partially ripped.
He shrunk down, contemplating what would happen next.
"So..." he muttered, watching as the Darkbeasts began to close in. "...

"This is it, huh?"

...

Then it appeared.



Midoriya's fist sank through the wall, as he finally could see the other side.
"TODOROKI!"
His eyes widened, as he saw that Todoroki was running towards.
"Wait, Todoroki, no--"
"It's our only way out of this," he replied. "You know that!"
"But, you don't--"
"I'll find you guys again!"
"Todoroki, you can't! What if--"
"Midoriya, think about the situation. If you get through, that gives them a weak point to bust through."
"B-but--"
"I'll be fine." Todoroki glared at him, trying to smirk.
"...Promise that we'll meet back up."
"It's a deal."
Midoriya could only close his eyes and sink to the floor as Todoroki closed his fist around a shimmering blue crystal.

...


...



...





"...Wh...where..."

Pulling himself to his feet, Todoroki ran his hand along the floor.
Daylight. He could feel stone; asphalt? It was dirty, at the least.
Shoto opened his eyes, looking around.
His fists clenched as he examined the buildings, most of which had massive holes burned into them, or were completely decimated.
The sky shone a dirty gold, and the UA Student looked around, his eyes going wide in response to he environment around him.

Far East: City of Mercy

...



Back in Yharnam, Soul looked down at Midoriya, now huddled in a ball on the floor.
"...I'm sorry."
"..."
"I wanted to make sure our whole--"
"It's fine."
"...What?"
"It's like you said. He made his choice."
Unable to find any words to comfort the young hero, he simply offered his hand.
"Let's catch up with the others."
In a short time, the two rushed to meet up with the rest of their group.

 

[Funny Sans Rat]

Jamie
Rex's "Reenactment" of a dinosaur made him wince. A face appeared in the fire, "Gee, ya know you don't have to do that, a simple explanation would've been more than enough, if you need somebody to do that, you could ask me." He then shapeshifted into a Velociraptor "See? I'm better at this." He then recreated a velociraptor's 'caw', like from Jurassic Park. After a while, he shapeshifted back into the fire. "Hold on, what would you do if you were walking through the forest and you saw a sign that said "screech" in red letters?" He was chuckling a little bit, as he already knew what the ending was, yet there was a thought in the back of his head. Alright, so, I'm in a cave talking to a caveman, a child, and a warrior. Not what I expected, but I'm sure I can make the most of this, maybe it'll take my mind off of things for once... I wonder how Goofball is doing? Didn't see him come through the portal, or whatever that was.

Goblin Slayer
He was alive, somehow he survived, but he couldn't move, his entire body was numb, this wasn't the first time he went through something like this, but it was never this bad. He struggled to breathe, he struggled to keep his eyes open, but that was when he heard the Ogre mocking them, if he didn't get up, they could die. His entire life flashed before his eyes...
"I'm... not... done... YET!"
His eye glowed red with rage as he rose slowly. He then started to slowly limp towards the Ogre. "You, you're not a goblin, but I'll still beat the shit out of you. You should fear me, I have gone through hell, I have stared death in the eyes and lived to tell the tale, I am the GOBLIN SLAYER!" His wounds slowly healed, he hadn't used a potion, this was... odd, maybe not magic, but it was happening, and that's all that mattered. "You're still standing? Good, I wasn't done pummelling you into a pulp," The Ogre cackled. Goblin Slayer slowly pulled out a longsword, the Ogre then swung at him... Nothing, nothing but the sound of metal clanging. Goblin Slayer opened his eyes to the sight of the longsword holding back the ogre's weapon. "W-What!? How did you do that?!" The Ogre swung again and again, it was useless, none of the attacks did anything. "You fool..." Goblin Slayer threw the sword at the Ogre, cutting open his shoulder. "H-Hah! your puny sword is no match for me!" His wound quickly healed. He then pulled out a strange crystal, like the one that warped him. as portals began to open, multiple hobgoblins and goblin champions came out of the portals "Deal with the others. the human's mine," the Ogre sneered. "I see, the fight finally begins."

Tohru & Kanna
Tohru slowly got up, "Have you seen this place before? It's odd to say the least."
"Sadly, I have not, lady Tohru, but it seems to be from the early ages of human technology"
"I guess you're right, maybe we should take a look around." The pair started wandering the streets of Yharnam. After a minute ir two, they came across a group of what looked to be humans "Ah, hello, would you please help us find our way home? We got lo-" She was interrupted by one of the men that attempted to stab her with a pitchfork. "Woah, ok, I don't think violence is needed, just let us go on our merry way and we'll be fine." Despite her asking to go peacefully, they continued to attempt to attack her.

Elma
She made her way through the wilds, eventually coming across Lif and Stain "Do you... do you know where I am? I kinda got lost." She had a puzzled expression on her face, the armoured figure seemed normal, yet, the other person seemed... odd. She was on high alert, as they could strike at any moment...

Scout
"Aight, so we either find that wizard guy and bust his kneecaps, or Engi does some science and gets us out of here using his sciencey mumbo-jumbo, by the way, can ya please use english next time? I understood almost none of that." He said, chucking his baseball up and catching it. "Heh."

Captain Lennox
"Alright, watch your 6, there's definitely something around here," he said, checking down a hallway "Clear!" He called out a little too early though, as suddenly, a hole shot through the wall. looking out the window, he noticed something outside, after closer inspection, it seemed to be a cybetronian, this "closer inspection" was being shot at. "Shit, GET DOWN!" He ducked behind a pillar, the wooden walls beside him being riddled with bullets. After a small back and forth of shooting, the Cybertronian smashed through the wall and grabbed him. That's when he noticed something strange in its eye, like a crystal. He pulled out a knife and stabbed the Cybertronian in the eye, it let out a loud screech before a strange portal opened. It led to a strange world, as he fell, he saw a building with a massive hole in it. He then shoved his gun into the eye socket of the Cybertronian and fired until it stopped moving. "Great, now where am I?" He looked into the distance and saw a man, he holstered his weapons and made his way over to him.

 

[comic]

Master Chief
Specter's Ship - Cafeteria (2004 Hours)
With the Omnidroid still preoccupying itself with its apparent self-destruction, the Master Chief darted back into the Cafeteria, snatching up Flynn's limp body, attempting to heft the soldier over his shoulder, but feeling genuine surprise at the Doomslayer's weight. He wouldn't be able to carry both him and the biker guy at the same time. Fortunately for the biker guy, he seemed to have a helmet, so there was a possibility he was fine, but just knocked out from things not relating to oxygen.
John hoisted the Doomslayer up as best as he could, and dragged him back to the teleporter as quickly as possible, finding this to be more of a tedious task than those three individuals from earlier. However, he was successful in the endeavor in under a minute, putting Doomslayer close enough to get teleported through, disappearing as John raced back to the cafeteria, arriving for the third time that hour. He immediately made his way toward the biker guy, who seemed to be slowly moving, perhaps waking. Chief stooped down, quickly grabbing him and getting him to his feet, the man's arm over Chief's soldier.

"Come on. I'm getting you out of here." The Spartan informed the man, who let out a small groan. "Wait..." He said as Chief began to pull him along back to the teleporter. "Hope, she's..." The man groaned again. "She's... inside that big thingy thing... I don't remember what it was..." He still seemed out of it, but the Spartan was quickly piecing together parts of the puzzle. This man was in league with those who'd been in the van, which had seemingly appeared out of nowhere, though John had seen an outline of what appeared to be the van- but half the size of it, just before it appeared. SIze manipulation wasn't totally out of the question with the things John had seen today, and it would help explain why this 'Hope' was inside the spherical robot. She'd reduced her size, doing the opposite of what John had seen the van do.
"I'll get her. First, you need to get to the others." Chief replied as the Ant-Man gave a delirious nod, his head lolling back slightly before they reached the teleporter, and John set him in, watching as he disappeared, before heading back to the cafeteria one last time.

Artemis
Camelot - Dining Hall (1758 Hours)
She'd had trouble listening to Joseph's long-winded speech about his life story. Halfway through, she thought about snapping his neck to shut him up. Every second listening to him just irritated her further. His voice was almost as annoying as his personality. However, she kept Serena and her 'better self' idea put on the forefront of her mind to prevent her from following through with such actions, as much as he irritated her.
By the time he'd finished, Artemis was glassy eyed, staring down at her plate, which she'd barely touched. For the second half of Jojo's story, she'd instead preoccupied her thoughts with other things, and when Serena offered her simple reply to Joseph as he finished, Artemis looked up, blinking a couple of times. "Yes, lovely. I'm sure you had a lot of fun. Dio sounds like quite the irritating man." She said absentmindedly.

Negan
Camelot - Throne Room (1758 Hours)
Kid had managed to impress the charismatic Negan, who watched as he exited, grinning, before looking toward Sonic. "Kid's not bad." He stated, folding his arms. He was about ready to begin asking the King more questions, before Merlina warned Sonic of a 'strong power' coming their way. This obviously put the King on edge, and Negan knew he wouldn't be up for the kind of conversations Negan currently wanted to partake in, so he folded his arms to wait longer.

Darth Vader
Camelot - Castle Exterior (1758 Hours)
King Sonic the Hedgehog. During his years as the fist of galactic rule for the Empire, Darth Vader had heard and seen many oddities. 'Sonic the Hedgehog' wasn't the most absurd thing he'd encountered. He wouldn't dwell on it. He'd in fact, taken more interest in the name of the King than this thing in front of him. It wasn't until deciding the King's name was pointless that he actually paid attention to Sir Lancelot, who was demanding Vader state his business.
The dark lord of the sith stared back at Lancelot. What an annoyance. Usually, Vader would simply cut down anything that annoyed him- but if the King had something he wanted, the dark lord would attempt a more charismatic approach to begin with. Not his preferred tactics, but he'd encountered many powerful beings today. He had a right to be more wary than usual.

"You are not worth my time." Vader told the hedgehog. "I will speak with your king and your king alone." With that, he continued on, walking past Percival toward the throne room as he detected the living beings inside through the force. One of them he could sense was Negan, irritatingly enough.
As he passed Percival, Darth Vader naturally instilled some power of the dark side through the hedgehog, forcing upon him a sense of dread and fear which the sith clearly hadn't instilled upon appearance, as was usual. He had nothing more to say Percival.

Spider-Gwen
Goldenwalk - Business District (0221 Hours)
"I mean, I've been better." Gwen replied, giving Nathan her best grin, wincing slightly. "I've felt worse, though, too, so... Yeah, I guess I'm alright." She bit her cheek as Scorpio managed to evade her webbing, narrowing her eyes as she watched his movements. Despite never meeting him, she'd seen moves like those before... Maybe she could use that to their advantage.
"You guys, keep... doing your thing. I think I'm just gonna try and heal some wounds here." She told the others, bending her arm back as far as she could in an attempt to aim her web-shooters at the wound in her back. The webbing was great at providing minor relief to pain, and it would hopefully protect her from infection if she wasn't infected already.

Rick Grimes
Fenrir Far East - Training Room (2344 Hours)
"Yeah, I'm..." Rick took a step back, shrugging Lenka's hand, before rubbing his face. "Fine. Just... I need some sleep or something. It's been a long day." It really had. He'd woken up that morning with a goal in mind- finish the bridge to Sanctuary. However, things had taken the biggest nose-dive he'd ever seen, and with Maggie attempting to kill Negan, Daryl's betrayal, then the walker herd... top all that off with that injury he'd sustained, he was fairly surprised he'd managed to survive as long as he had.
Then he'd woken up here, still tired from his injuries. Underwent the God Arc procedure, aced the training room session... These people probably thought he was superhuman, and he was beginnign to think it himself, but on top of everything, he greatly needed some rest to clear his head.

Frisk
Far East - City of Mercy (2344 Hours)
Maxwell seemed to gain a sudden and unusual interest in the current situation, approaching the three and asking a simple question.
Frisk waited for Silver to answer this question. However, he ignored the kid, replying directly to Frisk instead. Before she could answer Maxwell's question so as to not seem rude, she suddenly felt the world go black. She was in. No more time to stall, she'd have to pull Blaze out of whatever nightmare Gaster had forced her into.

------------

"You're PATHETIC, Blaze."
Frisk found herself standing in a dark area. A spotlight seemed to illuminate Blaze, who was on her knees, her head bowed. A dark figure with a body shape similar to Blaze and Silver stood over her, his eyes a glowing red, his fur, or hair, or whatever it was- black. Mephiles seemed about ready to kill her while she was down- but he couldn't predict Frisk.
Mephiles suddenly went flying, a blast of red slamming into him and sending him hurtling away, tossing and turning as he skipped across the ground like a flat stone on water. The child immediately ran over to Blaze. "Get up, Blaze." She told her. "You're NOT pathetic. Don't let him get to you. You're better than this." She urged, grabbing Blaze by the arm and trying to pull her to her feet.

Vriska
Sequin Land - Risky's Ship (1317 Hours)
Vriska caught the sword thrown her way, and grinned widely as Rottytops took off into the forest off the shore. After a couple of swings with the blade, Vriska lowered it, comfortable with its weight and her own agility. "Whelp. Captain to Captain. See ya, Risky Boots. Let's move, Spidermom." She told Contessa. With that, Vriska leaped off the ship, landing deftly on the sandy beach, before taking off after Rottytops, hacking a branch out of her way as she entered the forest.

Atriox
Balaho - Drop Zone (2124 Hours)
Atriox stopped, and turned his head slowly, grinning widely, revealing his row of terrifying fangs. "Run? Perhaps if you'd fled properly after your betrayal, you might have managed to survive another few years against the Flood in a separate galaxy. However, you're still here." He sneered, before looking skyward. "The Flood will be arriving at any moment. No doubt they'll have tracked my ship here if this wasn't already a destination they had planned." He looked back down to the screen displaying Yapyap. "If you wish to flee, then leave as quickly as you can now. Take no more moments of hesitation- but you won't escape the Flood. Nothing can. Join me, and perhaps some of you may survive to prosper in the end. However, survival is no guarantee. We all may fall to the parasite." With that, the Banished Phantom descended as the two jiralhanae were beamed back up into the ship through anti-gravity as Atriox approached it. "I'm giving you and your species a chance." The leader of the Banished chuckled loudly. "Take it or die." With that, he too was brought into the Phantom, which then zoomed off.

"This mission was a fluke." One of the jiralhanae muttered. "Maybe." Atriox replied. "If they attempt to flee, we'll leave nothing left for the Flood to consume. Prepare our cloaked fleet for glassing. We'll need it for either the unggoy or the parasite... or both. I don't really care which."

 

[Shen: King of Digimon]

Name: The Contessa, C.
Locations: Sequin land.

“...right...” the Contessa replied to Vriska, unimpressed by the name. “Onvards men.”

C and the other soldier began to pile out of the ship, touching solid ground beneath their feet, or claws in The Contessa’s case. The Italian Countess was quick to get to go on point.

“Green one and troll one, hopefully the three of us will make an effective combination. But alas for a team to be great at anything, we must first know our strengths. What are you two’s strong suits?”



Name: YapYap
Location: Balaho


“Did...he just beamers before I could finish my sayings?” YapYap questioned in irritation.

“I think he did oh so powerful one.”

“If my planet was named DOI-sac I would also not be in the goodeyest of moods.” YapYap pondered. “Oh wait, was I a sayin’ again?”

“Um...the flood sir?”

“Oh right that...” yapyap massaged his head. “If we cant run from ‘em, and the sangheli fell to ‘em, what do we do? Clog up their war machine with our lifeless bodies?”

“...um....” the grunt gulped. “I hope not...”

“You know what, this requires a thinkering.” yapyap said, reaffirmed.

Without and lead up, yapyap banged a button on his throne of woh. Suddenly, lots of volatile free gas filled the room. Highly rich methane laced with a special substance. ...drugs. The substance was drugs. Yapyap convulsed for several seconds, the grunts watching in before the gas began to dissipate.

“My overfoot? You okay?”

Yayyap, snapped to, gas drugs escaping from his nostril.

“I gots a great thinker plan!” Yapyap spoke hurriedly. “They want our help, and we give it to
‘Em. But then, we stay in the back at fight from waaaaay far away. And then we can piggy back off their success while being defended! We’d be INVINCIBLE!”

“I only heard a little bit of ‘dat, but gee it sure sounded good!”

“Ready up the fleet! We’re goin’ flood hunting, but not really hunting as we are staying away. But READY THEM ANYWAY!”

Several minutes passed as atriox went to his flagship. Suddenly, the ground on Balaho began to shake. All of a sudden, a large ship emerged from the surface. A bizzare orange colored ship erupted out of the frigid snow of Balaho. A DDS class Carrier, and highly modified. It was filled to the brim with holy graffiti, and had several extra fins with no purpose but to add more graffiti onto. But it seemed to have an odd attachment in the front of the ship, one seemingly not of covenant nor human design, but forerunner.

Soon enough, an entire fleet began to emerge from the ice! Several small classes such as the DAS, CPV, CRS, and even some SDV’s sprinkled in, with the rare CCS or two. All of which had graffiti and color splattered all over them with all sorts of human and grunt words. Some were stories, others were just bad words repeated thousands of times. It seemed as though a lot of these ships were very old, left on Balaho to rot before the Uggoy began their era of rebuilding.

“Hey, big bad atriox!” Yapyap said on all channels. “This big enough for ya?! MUHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!”

 

[Godjacob]

Name: Hiro, Kale, Keyblade Trinity Squadron, Omnidroid
Location: Specter’s Ship

Hiro had to pause at the name mentioned, Zeliys. This was a bit of an oddball by the guy as he considered Kyuseishu then Specter to be the biggest threats at play, but then he remembered the words that Lady in White said within his dreamscape.

A great evil threatens all the worlds, one that if not stopped will cause unspeakable catastrophe.

At the time when Hiro made mention of Specter she replied with this, and that had made him think she meant Kyuseishu...but what if she had referred to this Zeliys? Hiro had his eyebrows frowned as he clutched the potion in hand as this was too curious to simply disregard.

"Who is Zeliys?" Hiro asked the man.

Unknown to Hiro, Malcolm had rounded the corner and peered into the conversation, as the Trinity Squadron Leader kept his presence masked as he aimed to listen in on this discussion; as this Zeliys information and what he could get from this mystery man might be nearly as valuable to his Savior as anything else.

-----​

As the Omnidroid continued to bang about the walls, a sudden shot from inside it by Wasp which did not fire in vein; as it cut into the internal power cord for the head-mounted laser gun which caused sparks to fly as the Omnidroid came to a stop before it had a chance to ram into the wall again.

It remained there for a good minute, as its limbs and head revealed itself with several error signs that flashed on its monitor. Before then his gun shot out once more as it began to spark by its head and crackle but before any counter measures could be taken...

Boom!!!​

The laser soon overloaded and exploded thanks to Wasp's interference which caused a side of the Omnidroid's face it was attached to to explode from within as well which caused have the head to practically melt off as it wobbled in place. somehow, even with sparks from its damaged head it remained standing and operational but made no attack and appeared helpless.

-----------
Name: Dipper, Raven, Star Butterfly, Erza
Location: The Wilds

"Splendid! Now that you all seem ready let me show you to your guest rooms." Spider With a Top Hat said with a grin as he'd venture off Star's shoulder and work to guide the group to the various guest rooms down the hall to the right.

Star had been giddy herself, as she had the intent to dash to the kitchen as she declared she'd make some "goodies" for the night ahead of them. Though as she walked down, she noticed something....curious. To the left hall everything seemed normal, but there was this odd door there before; one she had sword she never saw there before but then again this was a pretty expansive subspace. Still she could not help but been drawn curious by it and the odd symbol of a faded butterfly on it.

“Oh, no need to focus on that door dearest Butterfly.”

Star turned as she saw what appeared to be a mural of a small blue-skinned man with a white beard and violet gem in his forehead, only for that mural to spring to life as he revealed himself to the magical embodiment to the instruction book of Star’s Wand; the Butterfly Family teacher…

“Glossaryck?”

“In that case that only makes me all the more eager. We shall decide a time for a spar at a more appreciate time.” Erza replied, as Rex’s attempts to have scared her off seemed to have backfired as it only touched her excitement.

Location: Camelot

“Oh I am eager to explore this blacksmith, I’ve never been one to like being cooped up in one place for a prolonged period. Just ask my teachers.” Yang said with a grin as she was ready to join her sister for the trip.

“…what?”

Caulifla had no other words, as her frustration caused her to almost miss what Belowski heard. But it appeared the strange new arrival had challenged her to a duel. As Caulifla turned to the guy who seemed to have that chill smile plastered on his face he held up what appeared some sort of…gauntlet? Caulfila was unsure but she had her arms folded over her chest as she stared at him inquisitively.

“Ah huh…you want to fight me?” Caulifla asked just to see if he had been sure of his decision. In truth, he had not looked much like a fighter but then again Cabba had been a string bean in her eyes so she had to give benefit of the doubt.

Bowser felt an eyebrow twitch when some creature appeared besides Nanashi as he had began to lecture him as he bossed him around. Which only caused a death glare to appeared as he stared Dagda down as Azula felt the tension in the air.

"Who...do you think you are telling the King of the Koopa what to do! Take back those word or else!" Bowswer spar as he stomped Dagda's direction. Azula had been internally very pleased with this development, but managed to masterfully put on a look of concern.

"Now now, I think it would be wise not to come to blows over this. I am more than willing to do what is needed for the group no need to worry over my services." Azula assured both Dagda and Bowser as Bowser never left his eyes off Dagda but had not advanced again yet.

As goblins rained down all over the area, Blake produced a pair of clones as they all brandished their weapons and charged the horde with swift strikes.

Weiss in turn, kept by Asta as she covered for him while she fired ice shots at the goblins that tried to surround the pair. They had momentarily been cut off from Goblin Slayer, who had guts but appeared wounded.

Name: Toph
Location: Goldenwalk

Toph flopped to her rear as the pillars crumbled but thankfully Spider-Man had used the aid of herself & Logan to escape the debris. Toph took a moment to catch her breath from the strenuous rescue effort, before she heard Peter’s thanks as she gave a nod though had not looked his direction.

“No prob. It’s what I do. Was no sweat….” Toph said with a grin, even if it had been clear it took a lot out of her in that moment but she was glad the danger had been averted at least momentarily.

Name: Ogremon
Location: Catgirl's Universe

“Oh fantastic. Anymore friends dropping in or can we finally get going?” Ogremon asked as he had made no attempt to hide his annoyance with the antics of Catgirl and her group.

Name: Katsuo
Location: Dreamland (Green Greens)

All eyes had been turned to Shantae, as the half-genie blinked for a moment as she quickly realized what was asked of her as she scanned the area before she turned to Maple and cracked her knuckles.

“All right, one magic-boost battery coming up. Just tell me when you are ready.” Shantae said with a smile, if this aided their group and Katsuo against such threats she had been more than willing to contribute however she could.
