"I-I'll be okay," Elliot said to Azura, holding out a hand to her.

"I don't know about any traps," Billy said, "but he knows we're coming." He looked to Gentaro, Emily, Ruby, Thaal, Blake, and all of the others. "Though we couldn't all make it here, I know we have the power to put things right. And don't worry..."

"This way," Wanda suddenly said, looking in a random direction. Billy began to fly that way.

"... we'll find reinforcements!"

***

As the group continued in the direction Wanda gave, they found that much of the area they were in was little more than a scorched battlefield. It was clear that this entire area had been the sight of an incredibly destructive battle. The group wandered past smoking craters and ruined buildings, on and on, only being forced to stop when a voice could be heard.

"Hold on now," said a male presence. "Where do you all think you're going?"

Suddenly, a giant card appeared before the group, blocking their way. A series of them appeared in a giant circle to trap the group inside.

A blond man appeared before them, smirking. "Let's sit down and play a game first."

"Why should you have all the fun, Luxord?" said another male, who appeared next to the blond. This one seemed to have weird-looking guns and an eye-patch.

A third appeared next to them, with long blue hair and looking a bit like the "student" who had tried to stop Makoto and Kyoko before. "I am not letting these ones get past me again," he said.

Luxord calmly stroked his beard. "Xigbar... Saix. I suppose having you two here evens the odds, no?"

Billy's eyes glowed blue. "These guys are working with Revan!"

Azura was surprised to see Elliot hold his hand out to her, but took it and gave it a reassuring squeeze.

"Alright, but if you need to stop and rest, stick with Nathan and Bridgette and let either of them or myself know." She responded.

Once the group were on the move, and suddenly were stopped by three Revanchist members, Azura held her naginata at the ready as she stood between Elliot and Nathan and the three Revanchist memebers protectively for a moment, trying to watch their movements.

Jianyu yelped and instinctively raised her arms to shield her, the action creating a barrier for herself. Fucker!! "Back off!!!" Jianyu would send her barrier forth as a pulse of Psycho Power towards Xigbar, temporarily taking the boost she gave Biscuit to cover his other side.

Honda meanwhile gained his bearings against Luxord, only to see the cards start to spin. Considering the odds, it seemed like O was the way to go...but watching all those cards was making his head spin! Shaking his head to regain focus, Honda instead focused his gaze directly in front of him, watching for the O card as best he could. Hand ready for a palm strike, he waited...waited...now! The sumo's hand flew forward when he thought he spotted that O. Hopefully he was right about this...

Xigbar and Luxord instantly teleported away as Saix took the brunt of the railgun attack. He raised his weapon high, drawing the blast to it and standing his ground to absorb the attack. Claire grunted as her pistol flew out of her hands. Other metal debris within the walls of the battle flew at Saix, but he simply tossed his weapon into the middle of the group. Billy cast a spell to cease the magnet's effect. Saix then summoned a copy of the weapon into his hands and flew at Touma, ready to strike him down.

Xigbar appeared behind the charging Biscuit, firing an energy bullet into her back. He then craned his neck toward Jianyu and instantly fired off a volley of shots at her with his second gun.

When Luxord reappeared, Honda zeroed in on him. "Want to play?" he asked, four cards suddenly spin around him to protect him from direct attack. The cards spun rapidly. Three of them had Xs on the back of the, while one had an O...

The shot hit but Biscuit wasn't grounded for long as she used Jianyu's attack as she tried to flank Xigbar and delivering a kick to his ribs.

Bridgette's gun meanwhile had been tugged away by Gentaro's attack so instead her arm flared up as she tossed a fireball towards Saix all the while staying close to Elliot in Nathan in case they needed help.

Wanda in turn tried her best to give support firing off a couple of hex bolts towards Luxord and guarding those that needed help.

"Wha--?!"

Touma let out a gasp as Saix began to charge toward him. The boy was stuck between a rock and a hard place; evading would mean putting Makoto and Kyoko in danger, but on the other hand, the blue-haired man going for a direct attack, nothing that his Imagine Breaker could immediately repel. Thankfully, the choice was taken out of his hands as Blake and Giorno moved to save him, the spiky-haired boy raised an arm to protect himself from some stray debris and dust littering the field in the midst of the skirmish.

As the gangstar began speaking to him, Touma's gaze hardened, quickly catching on to what was being implied. "So... you really mean to use that...! I guess it's as good as any time to use it anyway...!" He nodded, wisening up to Giorno's plan. With his back up against Giorno's, standing side by side with him as two allies who have seen this crisis from the beginning all the way to the end, Touma clenched his fist with burning will that matched Giorno's.

"Yeah. Just tell me when, Giorno! In the meantime though, let's show these guys the power of our resolve! They've been trying so hard to set the multiverse back to zero, but we'll make sure... they'll never reach the truth!" He exclaimed finally, and with that, got his head back in the game.

Watching Saix closely now and those around him, Touma waited before seeing Bridgette conjure a fireball toward the man's way. From there, Touma ran forward, and as the fireball made its expected impact, the boy burst through the resulting smokescreen, right at Saix and throwing a right hook with a battle cry!

@Atomic Knight @Jeremi @Crunch @Gummi Bunnies @Capri @Saix​
 
Saix slammed hard against Blake's shield with his weapon, pushing against it with an incredible amount of force. When it seemed he might win over, Giorno came through, delivering a punch that sent Saix staggering. Further blows sent him flying backward and the blue-haired man could only look back at him in rage. As Bridgette's fireball came at him, he swung his weapon through the ground to kick up debris and dissipate the attack. Touma's sneaky attack came next, though with rock and dirt hindering him, it was easy for Saix to grab him by the throat and toss him aside. As if in a full-on rage now, the man started rising into the air, glowing.

The energy pulses Jianyu sent out had Xigbar flying backward, while Biscuit's kick sent him into the air. It took him a moment to gather himself as he stopped himself in mid-air, as if suspended by magic. "Nice try," he said, suddenly disappearing and re-appearing all around the arena. Energy shots from his guns held in the air, suddenly moving when the man snapped his fingers. All in all, dozens of bullets were heading toward Biscuit, Jianyu, and Azura, while threatening to hit anyone who happened to get in the way.

Luxord raised one hand toward Wanda's hex bolts, conjuring a wall of cards that blocked her strikes. The O card gave way easily and Luxord flinched as if this action had hurt him. "Fair and square," he said, as another card appeared in his hand. It turned giant, large enough to be use as a weapon, and Luxord swung it in front of him as if to strike Honda.

GENTARO KISARAGI
@Gummi Bunnies @Crunch @Ver @SaixFight

Gentaro aimed his N Magnet Cannon and S Magnet Cannon at Saix's floating form and fired. He didn't relent, hoping that the non-stop barrage of electromagnetic energy would distract him enough so that Giorno and Blake could get some hits in.​

"Tch! Cocky bastard," Biscuit snarled looking at the man multiplying around her. When the bullets came towards her Biscuit attempted to leap into the air and spot Xigbar from her vantage point to land back down on him hard.

@Atomic Knight @Takumi @Jeremi @Gummi Bunnies @Josh @York @Capri @Crunch @Yun Lee @Lucky @Alex Azure @Kaykay @Space_Candy @Sark @Ver
 
Jianyu didn't bother trying to block the bullets, instead letting them come to her. Right at the last second, she vanished just as they tore into where she'd once stood. "Think you're the only one who can teleport, bitch?!" She appeared right behind Xigbar, bringing her machete forward as she swiped at him!

"Guh!" Honda would attempt to catch the card in his hands as it came towards him. If successful in stopping it, he'd try to swing it up over his head behind him to send Luxord flying!

@Atomic Knight @Jeremi @Takumi​
 
Nathan nodded at Giorno as the man reassured him, moving past them.

Before he knew it, the world spun again as the temple melted away to reveal a new location.

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

Nathan stumbled to his feet- just as Elliot puked next to him, the other man's bile splattering his shoes. Nathan grimaced slightly but, patted Elliot on the back in a small attempt to comfort him. He quickly turned his attention to Billy, who appeared to be himself again. As he further explained that this whole thing was almost over, Nathan felt a fire ignite in him. He didn't even know who Revan really was- he just knew if they defeat him, they could stop this shit.

"Let's kill this fucker!" He seethed walking closer to the center of the group. But, the moment was interrupted as the large playing cards surrounded them. Nathan frowned intensely, noticing the three leather-clad men- obviously there in an effort to deter them.

"Who are these clowns?" Nathan spat, clearly annoyed. He drew his gun and shot at the men before charging at the one with the eyepatch. He noticed the white-haired girl from before fighting him.

"Need some help?" He asked before trying to land a punch.

Azura's pendant glowed, and as she slashed horizontally with her naginata, water followed the harsh movement in an attempt to cut into the bullets or deflect them from harming the Songstress and Elliot.

With Jianyu, Biscuit, and Nathan going in to attack Xigbar, she turned her head to check on Elliot momentarily.

Whether Jianyu or Nathan's attacks landed, Xigbar would be in Azura's sights.

"Embrace the dark you call a home,
Gaze upon an empty, white throne
A legacy of lies,
A familiar disguise

Sing with me a song of conquest and fate
The black pillar cracks beneath its weight
Night breaks through the day, hard as a stone
Lost in thoughts all alone."

Singing in a lower key, she sent a wave of water to hopefully crash into Xigbar with enough force to throw him back after the others attacks.

Lucifer Morningstar

It had taken a few moments for Lucifer to adjust and fully grasp the situation at hand. When Xigbar went bullet crazy, he would manipulate said objects back into the air and using a ton of force, would slowly guide them into Luxord. He would see who needed the most help in the fight.

@Atomic Knight @Yun Lee @KHfights
 
Saix seemed to tank Gentaro's attacks, only growing further enraged as a result. "I call on the moon's pale light!" he yelled, going into some kind of berserk state as he dropped to the ground. The very air seemed to ripple around the man as he shot forward at a blazing speed. His main targets were in sight: Touma and Giorno.

"W-Woah!" Xigbar was sent flying backward by Biscuit, crashing into Jianyu as a result. Xigbar disappeared mid-air and appeared on the ground. As Nathan came at him, Xigbar caught his punch and delivered a blow to the young man's stomach. It was then that Azura's water attack sent Xigbar flying to the ground. Wanting to support her and pissed off about Nathan being attacked, Elliot cried out as he summoned boulders to fall on the man, who was too stunned by Azura's attack to get out of the way.

Luxord seemed poised to dodge Honda's attack, but Lucifer throwing Xigbar's bullets at him caused him to flinch and take the hit. "You have tricks up your sleeve? Then so do I." Luxord suddenly disappeared, replaced by dozens of cards that started to float across the ground. Seemed Luxord was hiding underneath one...

@Takumi @Jeremi @Gummi Bunnies @Josh @York @Capri @Crunch @Yun Lee @Lucky @Alex Azure @Kaykay @Space_Candy @Sark @Ver​
 
Lucifer Morningstar

" Oh darn, I'll never find you," Lucifer sarcastically muttered as he closed his eyes and focused on Luxord, listening to see what desires he had at the moment. Once he pinpointed that, he would use his telekinesis to flip over that card and move Luxord around like a rag doll. " Card tricks are a little dated."

"Khh, dammit...! Figures that someone'd wisen up to the only attack I can throw after a while," Touma grunted as he recovered from the shock of being tossed around like a ragdoll by Saix. The display was unflattering, but even back in his home world, he'd taken worse than this. Patting himself off, he kept a close eye on the enemy as he began to glow, an intimidating aura of azure emanating from around him as though channeling more power. It was nothing he hadn't seen before, but the boy tensed up again, keeping on guard for what was to come. There wasn't much he could do with Imagine Breaker other than to just throw his right fist forward and reach his enemy -- whether by reaching their heart or breaking their face -- that way.

Even as the air and the earth shook before Saix's power, the boy remained steadfast. He didn't come all this way just to let a god get in his way, let alone one of his cronies! Bucking his knees and clenching his fist until his knuckles threatened to turn white, Touma narrowed his eyes as Saix went on the offensive, charging toward himself and Giorno.

If there was one understated ability that Touma had, it was his "precognition." A skill not even he was actively aware of. Something that he, at best, only knew as blinding reflex. It was the only way a normal high school student like him could contend with attacks that flew at him faster than the speed of sound.

And when the time came, he raised his clenched fist and...

"The moon won't protect you from catching this hand!"

View attachment 8300

FWOOSH!

In the window of opportunity that lasted for only a split-second, Touma took his stance and swung his fist right at Saix as the blue-haired man sped right at him, as though intending to use Saix's own speed and momentum against him, counting on the power of the Imagine Breaker to knock Saix right out of his rage form to render him just as vulnerable as anyone else!

Wanda suddenly turned her attention towards Saix. The power surrounding him, she had to do something fast. She hated this. To use this much power. Magic always had a price and the Scarlet Witch felt like she'd be paying for this one a long time coming. Chaos magic was unpredictable in even small doses. The energy she was amassing. A massive blast of magic erupted from her hands aimed straight at the now hopefully defenseless Saix.

Meanwhile, Biscuit wasn't going give Xigbar an inch. The moment she hit the ground she burst forward him again trying to deliver a few good punches and kicks into his abdomen.

GENTARO KISARAGI
@Atomic Knight @Jeremi @Ver @Crunch @Gummi Bunnies

Gentaro flicked a switch and a voice called out.
LIMIT BREAK
The cannons on his back joined together into one large magnet, which rotated as Gentaro yelled out to attack the weakened Saix.

“RIDEEEERR SUPER ELECTROMAGNETIC BOMBEEEEEERRR!!!!”

The giant magnet cannon fired a beam of pure magnetism, which, if Saix was hit, would cause him to implode on himself.​
 
Nathan gritted his teeth as he felt the man grip his fist, stifling his attack. He didn't have much time to brace himself as a blow was delivered to his gut- winding him. He let out a strained grunt as he was knocked to the ground- managing to roll and catch himself, his adrenaline pumping through him. He quickly returned to his feet, aiming his gun at the man once more. He turned his head as Azura summoned a large wave, her enchanting voice barely heard over the commotion. Nathan could hear as Elliot made a small noise as he used his powers, leaving him wide-eyed as the other man cast boulders down on their opponent. He shook off the surprise of Elliot's action before moving closer.

"Had enough?" He asked between heavy breaths as he walked to Xigbar, before attempting to jump up and land a punch with Biscuit's assistance.

@Atomic Knight @Yun Lee @Jeremi @Takumi @Xigbar
 
There was a second shock wave when Touma's fist impacted Saix's face. Touma's ability to cancel out powers made Saix no stronger than anyone else as Touma sent him flying in the opposite direction he had just shot forward at. He continued flying until he hit the ground, only for his body to get blown up by Wanda. This was then followed by Gentaro's attack, which caused an even bigger explosion, resulting in a smoking crater.

Xigbar had just gotten himself out of the debris when Biscuit landed a couple of blows against him. Luxord was pulled roughly from his card form by Lucifer and held in the air. When Nathan punched Xigbar, he went stumbling backward into Luxord.

"I want you both gone!" Billy yelled, magic flying from his hands. A bolt of energy coursed across the battlefield and slammed into the pair, enveloping them.

When the dust settled, nothing remained of the three men. The giant cards that had been trapping the group disappeared.

"This isn't over yet," Billy said.

@Takumi @Jeremi @Gummi Bunnies @Josh @York @Capri @Crunch @Yun Lee @Lucky @Alex Azure @Kaykay @Space_Candy @Sark @Ver​
 
Honda laughed heartily, dusting off his hands. "Gahaha! That was refreshing! I can't begin to tell you how much I missed being in the ring again..."

"Son of a bitch..." Jianyu groaned from where she'd fallen on the ground. At least those fuckers were dead now, that was a consolation. "Nice work," she said to the others who had helped her take on Xigbar. "Fucker didn't know what he was up against."
