Main Event Fighting of the Spirit

With that, Riesbyfe and those who accompanied her were off!

The Bifrost Bridge, also known as the Rainbow Bridge for self-explanatory reasons when gazing upon it, was a rather long stretch of land, and from the Observatory, one could traverse to any of the so-called "Nine Realms" of this universe, and beyond. Of course, the main priority was the Great Spirit residing somewhere else within Asgard, but more than that, there was little doubt that this area would be of great use to the Revanchist if they were to capture it. And needless to say, that was why they would have to make sure that didn't happen.

Upon reaching the Observatory at the end of the bridge, they were met by a bald man clad in armor, clearly an Asgardian from the looks of it, seeming to have been waiting for them. Giving them a casual wave, he walked over to the group.

"Ah, guessing you're the cavalry," he said, extending a hand. "Name's Skurge. And you are?"

Nodding, Riesbyfe shook his hand. "Riesbyfe Stridberg," she introduced herself, to which the man furrowed his brow.

"... I'll call you Beef instead. How about that?"

"What?"

"Anyway, I'll be helping you lot hold the Observatory. If the Revanchist is as fearsome as everyone else has been sayin', sounds like we've got our work cut out for us," he went on, before gesturing toward the corner of the Observatory, in which a pile of trash... or rather, "assorted items" lay.

"In the meantime, you're welcome to my stuff if you'd like!" He said, gesturing toward the pile shamelessly. There were quite a bit of some odd items in the lot, between an actual scooter, some combat blades, machine guns straight from Earth, a shake-weight, some nice status, and so on. Riesbyfe wasn't quite sure what to make of that, shaking her head.

"I-I'm fine with what I have," she responded, before letting out an exasperated sigh, "... I feel like I've made a mistake."

Reiner Braun

Reiner looked over the weapons they had in store, looking a little puzzled, but he nevertheless kept his composure... And formality, offering a rather stoic salute before he pored over what he could arm himself with.

"Reiner Braun. At your service. I'll protect this place to the best of my ability!" He said.

There was that salute again. While Reiner knew better, this still somewhat reminded him of the days he once served as a soldier... When he was tasked with defending the walls.

Eyeing the machine guns, he picked up one or two, looking them over... To try and get a read on how they worked; they were like miniaturized cannons almost. Ones capable of firing multiple shells at that.

While he would inevitably be using his titan in battle, he figured it wouldn't hurt having a couple of these on him, incase he needed them.

Then, something else occurred to him, as he looked up at Skurge.

"Do you have anything... Bigger? Something I can wield if I was... Say... 15 meters tall?" He asked suddenly.

It was a strange question for sure to most people... But anyone who knew about his powers, might have an idea what he was driving at here.​

"Hmmm..."

Cagliostro looks at the variety of weaponry, mainly between the machine guns and the scooter. An idea hatches. Was it good or bad? Only time could tell.

"Do you mind any form of... temporary modifications to your equipment?"

"I guess I'm supposed to recognize your eyes too, if everyone else is gonna do that without much prompt, but Blake... I do indeed remember that name. I don't quite have the memory to associate a face with that name, but I guess that's neither here nor there right now," Riesbyfe chuckled uncomfortably, almost feeling left out as Cagliostro and Clark drew attention to the apparent coincidence that they had run across a fellow Point Zero survivor's sister from the looks of it.

It seemed that the blonde man accompanying them, Reiner, was familiar with this Lapis in his own right, but the silver-haired knight zoned out a little as the girl kept talking, and that was when she figured it was high time to get a move on. Their circumstances certainly sounded complicated, even without the threat of multiversal destruction.

"Anyway... I suppose if this is the count, are we all ready to move?"

"...Heh, pretty interesting Clark," Shirou smirked in response to Clark's apparent offer of forgiveness, though it had a friendly air to it. He wasn't quite sure what he was expecting from Clark, but not knowing was part of the excitement for him. "Well ball's in your court. I mean shit, I ain't complainin' if you don't plan to punch my face in. I said it when I got here, right? Looks like we're partners now."
​

"Yeah sure, let's get the fuck outta here before we recreate the whole damn crew." ​

"Let's be honest; if I was going to punch you, you already by in the ground by now, right? You're good, and you can hurt me, but I'm faster. Just one good hit. But like you said, Partners"


Smirking at Shirou, Following Riesbyfe, Clark we in awe when he enter e the observatory. As Riesbyfe sighed, Clark chuckled loudly.

"Relax Reis. Everything's going to go well and according to plan, at least we can scooter out of this, right?"

Look at the scooter, Clark would use his x-ray vision to see how good of shape it was in."

"Whatever gets us where we need to go," Jack said, following the man. As the group started to depart, the Asgardian turned to one other, who pretended not to notice him.

"I trust your trip to Asgard went well," he said. "We were fortunate to find a Valkyrie willing to join our cause."

Scrapper sighed, turning to her fellow Asgardian. "What, was the me here unavailable? Or has she already achieved my goal of drinking herself to death?"

"It is not her time yet. It seems the world you come from is different than ours. Learning you had been displaced as you vanished in Sakaar's portal and were safe was a miracle."

"Especially considering what happened to Thor?" Scapper asked rhetorically, her tone lace with bitterness. There was a bit of sadness somewhere in there, but she seemed to realize it and quickly finished her part in the conversation. "You better get a move on, Protector, while you have people left to save." Taking a longer drink from her flask, she followed Cosmo along.

Jack wasn't sure whether to comment on the matter further. "She all right?"

"She is from another world, and was on her way to prevent Ragnarok when she and the Thor of her world were displaced. She made it safely to a city called Avalon, but Thor was not so fortunate. And neither was their Asgard." The man paused a moment, before urging the group on. "...She's right. We must move quickly."

He led them off the bridge and away from the city, opting instead to lead the group into a forest. The bugs from the bridge seemed to still be present, as the journey was undercut by their buzzing.

"You got a name?" Jack asked the man as they walked along. "Or you rather we call you Protector like she did?"

"Heimdall. As she said, I do everything I can to protect Asgard. I usually operate within the observatory, but when we learned of the oncoming threat I decided to evacuate the citizens and put the observatory in the care of another."

Heimdall stopped in his tracks, as if seeing something, though all anyone else would see were trees. "...I'm beginning to regret that decision."

Scrapper stayed quiet as they continued on, her walk a bit uneven as, true to her word, her flask was completely emptied. As Cosmo mentioned a horse, she seemed to soften a bit, approaching Cordelia as they went along. "It's beautiful," she said. "Yours?"

Upon arrival at the tunnel, Scrapper sauntered forward, licking her finger and sticking it into the air. "We looking for wind where we're going?" She asked.

The strange armored Karl Franz seemed to elude further investigation from Titus, as the space marine noticed squads of people beginning to mobilize. He'd leave Franz with a suspicious look, before turning away from the man and beginning to start after the squad that the boisterous emperor declared himself apart of; one charged with protecting the civilians of this world.

A rare sight for Titus, to see the ones in command show concern for civilian casualties. A comforting sight.

"That's noble of you, Heimdall," Titus' voice finally spoke as he informally joined the team on their walk to the civilian center, the towering armor-clad marine now walking alongside the 'Protector.' "Do you know if the enemy is making a point to target civilians? If the other fireteams draw enough attention, this may make our job easier."

Titus paused, realizing he hadn't even introduced himself nor stated that he was joining them.

"Ahem, I forgot to introduce myself. I am Captain Titus... formerly of the Ultramarines 2nd Company. I will be with your team for this mission."

The marine moved along with steely confidence, moving the bulkier of his two gauntlets to cock back the gun-like weapon fastened to his wrist. The metal in the gun churned, eager to unleash its contents at the squeeze of a trigger. "No innocent blood will stain the ground of Asgard. The Emperor wills it so."

"Cosmo could find wind with out help," The dog responded to Scrapper. "Cosmo was more thinking markink's and signs."

"So a little directions," Bayonetta replied as she sauntered up to where the split of the two tunnels were. "Let's see..." Looking closely she did find that both paths further in seemed to be man, or perhaps in this case, God, made. "I thought you were dragging us into a dank old cave, but it appears these are ruins of some sort."

"Da, Cosmo understood it's old armory gone to disuse. but still hold secret, if rumor true."

Looking closer on the arches there seemed to be some symbols forming around them on each path if anyone went in for a closer look.

Skurge gazed at Reiner blankly, blinking for a moment as though struggling to comprehend the younger man's question, before eventually answering. "Mate, does it look like anything here is 15 meters tall?" He asked. "I wish I had an axe or a gun that big; certainly wouldn't be letting anyone else use it if I did!"

To Cagliostro, he simply nodded and gestured toward his stuff again. "Do as you wish. Ain't like it'd matter if we don't survive through this."

With his X-ray vision, Clark would indeed be able to see that the scooter, along with everything else, was in relatively decent condition at the very least.

"Well, let's not entertain the thought of retreating. Come what may, we ought to fight to the end, whatever that might entail," Riesbyfe responded to Clark, his joke either hitting the woman like a wall or flying over her head entirely, furrowing her brow as she spoke.

With another breath, the young woman pinched the bridge of her nose for a moment, as though needing a second, before looking to Skurge again. "Did you get all of these from Earth? Some of these items look rather... bizarre. Alien-like, even."

"Aha, you certainly have a fine eye for the finer things in life. The maiden knows more than she lets on!" Skurge laughed at Riesbyfe's words, before grabbing the shake-weight suddenly. "You had your eye on this thing, didn't you?"

"Not particularly, n--"

"If you need a warm-up for your arms before battle, this the perfect tool! Let me give you a demonstration!" He said enthusiastically, before turning it on.

Wriggle wriggle.

Lo and behold.

Riesbyfe looked like she was this close to disassociating but instead she looked away, holding a hand to her forehead. "Lord give me strength, I'm in the den of sin..."

"Who knows? Maybe we'll find out another day," Shirou answered casually, seeming somewhat pleased with Clark's confident response.

Interesting. So most of her group were magical girls as well. Shiz? No, Chise. Oh well, Reimu even forgot the names of people she met a few days ago, she doubt she would remember. Okay, so she was a witch in training, kind of like Marisa. She wondered what kind of magic they had there.....nah, couldn't be bothered by such boring and needles subjects.

"You're learning more then magecraft? And what are those things? Are they going to help with this mission?"

Meanwhile, the more interesting, and likely more powerful magical woman was none other then the leader of the vault. A defender of the Great Spirits, the lord of spirits: More prestigous then a mere witch in training. That was the kind of person they needed on their team. Powerful people with a powerful position, who can defend against the most strongest of enermies.

The last person, the one minority, the one male....Reimu couldn't really tell WHAT he was. So he was a superpowered form of...a random teenager? That was strange. Most people who had a superpowered form was already powerful enough to turn into a new form.

"So you're a random kid who can change appearances. What kind of...powers do you have when you turn, since I'm assuming you have no powers by yourself. How do you even change into this...Zaptain 'Merica?"

Milla was not entirely sure what to make of Billy's powers, but they certainly sounded intriguing. Ever since she had assumed her duties as the Lord of Spirits and became acquainted with the multiverse, Mills had been endlessly fascinated with the kind of abilities humans from other worlds could display.

"I'm afraid we don't have much more time to talk," Milla said. She looked behind her, toward the end of the Rainbow Bridge. "Cosmo said that the vault lies within the palace that's just beyond the bridge. The fighting there appears to be heavy, so expect the worst."

Milla led the way, moving at a brisk pace across the bridge. It wasn't long before the palace came into view and the reality of the situation was clear. Robotic entities moved in droves in and out of the palace, firing laser blasts at groups of armoured warriors.

Though the Asgardian warriors appeared primitive by comparison, their metal shields successfully blocked and deflected the laser blasts. The shields glowed a bright blue whenever they blocked something, as did the warriors' weapons whenever they attacked. The fight appeared largely even, as the Asgardian warriors were cutting through the droids just as much as they were falling to precise laser blasts.

"The vault is inside the palace," Milla said as magical energy formed around her. "We will need to cut a path through!"

Billy Batson/ Shazam

" Well, if I said the name now, I wouldn't be much help in the battle. I'll tell you after we are done or at least in a safe area... oh and not indoors," he replied back to her. He offered a weak smile at the girl. " Well, I guess since I can't explain them all since we have a battle, I can definitely show you," he replied.

Billy would fly up into the air, his cape blowing in the air and hummed a tune that was very similar to Eye of the Tiger. " Hands... Lightning with my hands, lightning with my hands, lightning with my hands," he hummed. As he sang this, he would strike his lightning straight down towards the robot, across at certain points sending the bolts diagonally towards them in both directions and then off sideways to one side and then another. Once he was done being show-off, he would fly down and grab one of the robots, turning it into bowling and throwing them against each other.
