~Crossover Cove~

~Link's Quest for Zelda's Ass His Wife~

Link had hookshoted onto the rooftops and ran. He had almost made it to the town square, where they were supposed to meet the king (according to Archer).

When he finally made it, he leapt down off the rooftops. Link looked around, surveying the area. "Wonder where the king is..." Link straightened his posture and decided to be on his best behavior. He WAS requesting an audience with a king after all.

Finally, after tracking Link, Twilight and the others followed and caught up to him. "Link... don't run off again. PLEASE." she said to him. "Also, I brought friends. Apparently, you ignored the one asking if you ere in trouble, and I had to bail out everyone that was following you."

Link looked behind her and noticed the amount of people behind her. "Oh. Well, not complaining. The more people we get, the sooner that dan tower falls, and I get Zelda's as- I mean, save my wife."

"Right..." Twilight said.

~Cave: Pit VS Chrysalis~

"Hmmm..." Chrysalis said. "You're lucky I'm in a good mood, otherwise I'd end you on the spot. I'll let you go for today, but don't count yourselves lucky, because next time we meet, I won't hold back!" With a small wave, the Changeling Queen teleported out of there, leaving Pit to have to wake everyone up (she wasn't just going to wake them up, she's a villain remember? Well, more of a bitch. Okay, a bitchy villain. Point is, she didn't wake everyone up >:c)

~Lastation~

"Oi, Captain. 'Ow long we been standin' 'ere?" Jeice asked.
"Been a while. We're waiting on that Goku guy, to pay him back for last time! We have new Super Fighting Poses, and no one stands a chance against them! Not even him!" Ginyu replied.
"And I'm still the fastest in the universe! He's not gonna beat me again!" Burter exclaimed.
"Oi mate, calm down. We'll get our revenge on the bloody wanker soon enough."

OOC: No banners today, I'm short on time.

 

~Lastation~

Blanc just took one look before she told Chika and Kei out loud "Why don't you bitches shut the hell up and help me get Neptune to somewhere where she can sleep, I'm sure all of us are exhausted from the crap that just happened" while she lifted Neptune's sleeping form on top of her back and added "And someone carry Ichigo please, I doubt he'll move after that fight"

~Lastation: Grove~

Noire took a single look at Nico with her red ruby eyes before she started to yawn and replied weakily "Hey....I think I'm just gonna...close my eyes and rest...okay goodnight" shortly after which Noire's eyes fell shut and she started to sleep in Nico's arms looking rather exhausted.

~Tartarus~

The group of passengers just looked at one another before Ram said aloud "Okay faster idea, we'll just meet you all at Lastation, sounds easier" shortly before all four of the Candidates transformed into their HDD forms and flew off into the sky with Nepgear gently waving at the others. Teridax then looked at Jade and Anise before he asked "Is there any way that we could help fix your boat sir? I'm sure one of us could get the engine working again" only for IF to add in "Or possibly one of us would break the engine"

 

-To the King!-

Toon Link saw a ladder up to the location where Archer spoke of. He climbed up it and saw his counterpart jumping across the roof and using several of his items to get where he was. He stood there staring at Link from the acrobatics. That boy could have just used this here ladder to ascend to meet his majesty. When Link landed and the rest of the party caught up, including Tetra, Toon Link saw a little bird like creature. He used his mirror to classify what it was. Apparently it was called a Starly. The little bird flew over onto Toon Link's cap. He grabbed the little Pokemon and walked over to Link, giving it to him as a little gift. Maybe this would calm him down some.



-Lastation-

Chika and Kei looked over at Blanc and glared. They couldn't really reject her request. She was a goddess after all. Maybe not there's but it was still important.
"Fine. Lets get Lady Sleeps A Lot out of the open. The workers need to excavate here anyway." Kei said looking away from Chika
"Yeah whatever. Any idea's flat chest oracle?"
Another anger icon appeared on her head. "Why yes. Yes I do. Noire's house would be the perfect place. its a good meeting place."
Mine grabbed Neptune and began to walk towards Noires. "I hope the Sisters are okay."



-Lastation: Stock Conference-

Saisho sat down with his hands clasped together hearing out the angry stock holders. Buildings were begining to crumble. No doubt from the D-Reaper. In fact, a building had just fallen right by them as they were discussing. This created a large explosion That surely could be heard for miles.
"I am sick of this. My family has invested a lot of money in these companies. Fix it or else, Saisho."
"I believe he is trying as hard as he can. There is no need to yell at him."

Spoiler: Enter

"I don't need to hear your excuse Pinkylese. You are as in trouble as we are."
"My name is Estellise! And being angry about it wont get things done."
"As the princess says, Luke, we cannot jump the gun. I suspect the D-Reaper is behind this. I have the goddesses on the ready to deal with the crisis."
"Tell them to hurry up."
Estelle glared at Luke. "Saisho, is there anything we can do to assist in defeating this creature?"
"I cant put royalty in harms way. The best you can do is sit still and let the grownups take care of this." Saisho sat up. "I believe this will conclude out meeting. I ask you to return back to your homes and let us take care of things." Saisho warped again back to the meteor site where the oracles and goddesses... were....

Estelle stood up and started to walk out.
"Where do you think you are going. Saisho said this is a job for him and the goddesses."
"I know. But I feel that I can help him in some way. I am going to try and and help."
"You are so stubborn. Hey! Stop!" Estelle walked out as Luke was yelling at her. "Damn it. I don't want to be responsible for her death." Luke ran after her to help.

 

~~The Black Knights - Ikaruga~~

​

Aboard the Ikaruga, which had temporarily parted ways with the Halberd, which was now under the command of Sima Yi and his two sons, the man known as Zero sat at the command seat of the flying battleship, watching over the area with interest, hoping to see something he could commit to some sort of use for his Black Knights. However, other than the occasional Reaper that they needed to avoid, there was very little of note since they left the Savannah.

After several in-RP hours aimless travelling without an RPer to guide their actions, the Goddess of Plot, Deetie, transported them to Bushy Springs in order to provide them with ample opportunity to bond.

​

"Well shit." Deetie said to herself, looking at the hot spring, as she suddenly realized this meant she had about a billion people to post as. "I'm starting to regret having so many characters in this script."

Spoiler: This group really is gigantic right now

Having found a moment to herself now that everyone was seemingly relaxing, Noriko Takaya sat upon a small rock that overlooked one of the unisex pools, considering bathing in it herself when she was approached by the boy she had become the co-pilot of Lazengann with, and smiled.
He thanked her for taking Zen, the body part of Lazengann, and seemed to be panting slightly. She found it pretty funny how much he wanted to thank her for something she thought so little of, but she understood how he felt. After all, if somebody else had taken her machine from her, she would have been very worried too.
"Please don't think anything of it!" she said happily, inviting him to sit beside her. "Truth be told, it's been a while since I've piloted anything, and I kind of really missed it. I was glad to fight for something worthwhile too. And... most of all, I was glad to find people. I've been mostly alone for a few days, and it was starting to get to me."

The pair of them sat there for a while, talking about small things, when Genome happened to ask her something that made her stop and think.
"So where are you from anyway?" he had asked her.
"Ah, that's..." she began, before drifting off and looking slightly sadly down at the pool, having been reminded of something.
"This is going to sound a little weird... but actually... I've come from twelve-thousand years in the past." she answered him.
Seeing the surprise, perhaps even shock, on his features, Noriko decided that if she was going to be co-pilot to this boy, she might as well share her story with him.
"Before everything, I was just a student in a school where we learned to pilot robots to fight against creatures we knew as Space Monsters. I wasn't the prettiest, the smartest, or the best pilot by far, but I got picked for a special mission, and eventually I made the choice myself to fight. I was given a machine called Gunbuster, and together with my onee-sama and co-pilot, we stopped them for good. But in the end, something went wrong, and we had to use one of Gunbuster's drives to detonate the bomb we were using to stop them, and that left us not able to travel home properly. You see, while for me it's only been a few weeks since that mission, for Earth... it's been twelve-thousand years. Any friends I had back home... they're gone now. But you see, that's why meeting you and the rest of Dai-Gurren means so much to me. Why fighting against the Spiral King alongside you all is something I'll give my all to. I've met more friends here; you, Simon, Kamina, Yoko, and everyone. And more than that, I don't want to lose anyone else anymore. So I'll fight for that, and to make sure nobody else loses their friends either."
Having spoken a fair bit, she realised that this conversation was becoming very one-sided all of a sudden, and she quickly fixed that.
"What about you, Genome? I've heard a little about you from the others, but I'd like to hear it from you."

 

​

~Hot Spring~​

​

Last time, Nick left out a bunch of characters for no apparent reason, so this time he's gonna post as some of 'em.​

Let's start with Rossiu.​

Having been used as the landing pad for a light-green haired girl (Eureka), Rossiu was a tad dazed. The impact from the fall from the Dai-Gurren mixed with the impact from being landed upon nearly KO'd him.​

Upon realizing what had happened, Rossiu's face turned red.​

"U-Uh...I...Y-You...eep"​

As Rossiu nearly fainted for some odd reason that most likely involved some kind of religious rule he had back home, Jin approached the scene to help.​

"What's the matter, Rossiu? Cat got your tongue?" Jin asked sarcastically before yanking Rossiu out from underneath Eureka, tossing him over the shoulder like a towel.​

"Sorry about him, he's a little...Sheltered."​

Noticing that his attire was not appropriate for the Hot Springs, Jin placed Rossiu on the ground his behind.​

Seconds had passed, and Jin's white outfit began to glow orange, before finally flying off if his body in segments, floating in midair for a few moments before landing on the ground.​

Standing there now in his undergarments, Jin looked down at Rossiu.​

"Rossiu! No partner of mine is gonna miss out on some well-deserved R&R! Let's go relax."​

"But I can't get in the water with my clothes on..."​

"I'll fix that for ya!" Jin said before leaning down, grabbing Rossiu's poncho(?) and yanking it, somehow removing every article of clothing on Rossiu, aside from his undergarments.​

Rossiu simply sat there for a moment before realizing what happened.​

He looked down, noticing his nearly-nude body before looking back up at Jin.
"Normally I'd be freaked out by this, but I'm more concerned by how you managed to get everything off of me, including my shoes, in one pull."
"It's all in the flick of the wrist, buddy. Now let's go, Kamina and the others are waiting for us." Jin said, helping Rossiu up and leading him over to the Spring.
Rossiu, however, stopped Jin, asking to go to Eureka for a moment.
"Sure, I'll meet you with the others, then." Jin said before walking off.
Rossiu approached Eureka once more, trying to ignore his almost-nakedness, before bowing.
"I-I'm sorry for how I acted before. It was childish of me."
Standing back up, Rossiu extended his hand out to Eureka.
"My name is Rossiu Adai. It's a pleasure to meet you." Rossiu said with a smile.
He wasn't sure how, but he was standing there, as close as he's ever been to naked, talking to someone with minimal stuttering. Where he got this sudden burst of confidence from, not even Rossiu knows.

​

Genome listened with extreme interest as Noriko explained where - and when - she was from.
She explained how she came to be a pilot, how anyone she ever knew was gone, and how important Team Dai-Gurren was to her.
Noriko concluded with saying she would fight to make sure nobody lost any more friends.
"What about you, Genome? I've heard a little about you from the others, but I'd like to hear it from you."
Genome thought for a moment. He was unsure of where to start.
"Well, I'm from the same world as Kamina and Simon, but in the past. Not anywhere near 12,000 years...I think...But the past nonetheless. I lived in a big city, filled with people living their daily lives. It was the golden age for humans, I guess. I didn't go to a traditional school. My father was a genius mechanic who worked for a construction company, and my mother was a veterinarian. They wanted to make sure that I followed in their footsteps, so they home-schooled me, and taught me everything they knew. In the mornings, my mother taught me how to care for animals. Everything from small house pets to huge animals you'd find in a zoo. In fact, she gave me a few animals of my own."
Just then, Guame crawled up on the rock that Genome and Noriko were sitting on, crawling into Genome's lap.
"This is one of 'em. His name is Guame."
"Guaaa." The armadillo 'said' as he eyed Noriko.
"Not the most common pet, but he's my best friend." Genome said as he rubbed Guame's back.
Genome sighed slightly before moving on.
"When my mom wasn't teaching me how to care for animals, my dad was showing me the ins-and-outs of mechanical science. He taught me how to build simple robots at first, until he finally moved on to the prototypes of his pilotable mecha. He was working on machines that would be used to carry extremely heavy loads. Things that a person couldn't carry on their own. But...Before he could finish...They came."
Noriko raised an eyebrow.
"They? Who's 'They'?" She asked.
Genome shook his head.
"I don't know. Nobody did. We couldn't even see them. One day, I was at the park with my pets, when all of a sudden, a giant light fell from the sky, and wiped out the city in seconds. Everyone I ever knew and loved...Gone in an instant..."
Genome's breathing began to intensify somewhat.
"I was alone. Me and my animals were the only ones left from that city. I spent weeks in that park, in a state of absolute despair. There were days where I thought the only way to end the pain was to end myself. But then my pets would come to comfort me. They would give me a reason to keep moving on. And that's exactly what I did. One day, Guame and I were searching through the wreckage of my home city, when we found a crater. At the bottom of it was a face that was stuck in the ground. Guame and I dug it up, and saw that it was a small mecha. That was the day I found Lagann. It's technology was like nothing I'd ever seen before. It's face could reflect the emotions of the pilot, and it even ran on the pilot's will to fight! I knew at that very moment, that I had the means to fight back."
Genome's face had turned from a look of sadness to a look of determination.
"From that day, I continued my father's unfinished project, but I engineered the machines to fight. I perfected it, and created Zen, with the intention of it being it's own singular unit. That is, until I found out about Lagann's combining capabilities. At that point, an entire world of possibilities had been revealed. I spent months gathering supplies and building more bodies that Lagann could combine with. Each one of my creations was as powerful as the last. Finally, I'd built an army's worth of mecha that were compatible with Lagann. I called them Gunmen."
"But if you were alone, who would pilot the rest of your Gunmen?"
"Good question. After I finished my father's project, I went on to find other survivors of the attacks. It took a long, long time, around 2 years, but I did find them. Each one of them felt the same pain as me, and we all shared the same motivation. We all wanted to save the Earth from whatever was threatening it. When we finally were prepared, we named our new army the Terra Brigade. We spent a while training, and teaching those who were inexperienced in piloting. Surprisingly, a lot of the new people picked up on piloting much quicker than I expected. Then, finally, The day had come when we were finally going to head into Space...But then we saw what we were up against. These...Creatures, they were enormous. Bigger than anything any of us had ever seen. Our entire force was no match for even one of them."
Genome then looked to the Dai-Gurren.
"The Dai-Gunzan - Or, Dai-Gurren as it's called now - was the next step. After seeing the sheer scale of the enemy, I knew we would need ships, strong ones, and lots of them. I thought that if I could build enough of them, we may have stood a chance...But I was never able to finish even the initial Dai-Gunzan before I was taken here...But apparently I kept the blueprints and built them in the future, since it was used against Team Dai-Gurren."
Noriko looked confused at that sentence.
"Wait...You didn't finish it...But then you did, and used it against us? What do you mean?"
"I thought-Oh..." It just occurred to Genome; Noriko was unaware that the Spiral King was Genome but older.
Genome took a deep breath and sighed.
"Alright...I guess I should tell you. It's only fair."
He stepped off of the rock they were sitting on, holding on to Guame.
"The Spiral King...Is me. He's me as an adult."
A look of surprise came over Noriko.
"He has Dai-Gunzan's blueprints - and the knowledge of how to build Gunmen - because he's me. I don't know what happened, but something caused him to turn into some kind of human killing monster...Even worse, he's mutated my pets...Cytomander, Adiane...Thymilph..."
Genome's voice became unstable as he held back tears.
"Why, Thymilph...You were my friend...Why did you turn to such a wicked life...I didn't want to see you die..."
Genome's grip on Guame tightened.
"I'm staring my future in the face, and there's not a damn thing I can do about it! I can fight it all I want, but everything I've seen...Even my own friends are a reminder of what I'm going to become!"
Tears began to roll down Genome's face.
"Kamina and Simon's Gurren Lagann...Mina and Simone's Kokuren Lagann...Those new Gunmen we picked up...All of it, a burning reminder that one day, I'll be the one that builds the bodies and sends them after you! I won't be your friend anymore. I'll be your worst enemy..."

~Lastation; Crystal Cave~​

As Cole was knocked to the ground by Nox Decious's attack, the Scout took the opportunity to swoop in for an attack.
He charged in quickly, swapping out his scattergun for his metal Baseball Bat.
"Swing, batta batta, swing, batta batta..."
He finally reached Nox Decious.
"Swing!" He yelled out as he swung the metal bat at Decious's head.
Meanwhile, as Bentley explained his take on the situation at hand.
"I don't think we need a plan right now...It looks like Jak's all the plan we need." Ratchet said, looking to Jak, who was still in his Dark state.
The waves of fiery energy from The Darkness's Black Widow Blade flew at Jak quickly, only for them to be dodged quickly.
Wasting no time after, Jak charged the Darkness. He swung once at The Darkness with his claws, but missed. After swinging again, however, Jak managed to land a hit on him, leaving for bloody cuts on The Darkness's chest.
Jak then landed a powerful kick to The Darkness, knocking him on to his back.
A dark purple aura formed around Jak's body, as if he was charging up energy.
Seconds after, Jak jumped into the air towards The Darkness, his intention being to use the Dark Bomb attack.

"I see.... I hope I can find someone like that one day. You two look so happy together." Lukya said, smiling at him. Kain kept watch for the PlaMonsters and any enemies, Edge stood by him, keeping quiet in case of a enemy attack. With everyone being busy, Seymour quietly left the group and looked for the Black Mage and the fisherman, wondering who they were and where they went or came from.

Spoiler: many banners

-Galleon-

Hermione regained control to a place on the Galleon when she could be by herself, Basco appeared in the lounge room, leaning against the wall. Don sighed when Marvelous appeared in the room, he said, "Marvelous, I know you don't mean it. But please try to think of Hermione's feelings. It's not her fault that she's co-existing with Basco." "Where did she go on the ship, anyway?" Harry asked, Ahim said, "She went up to the crow's nest. To have some time to herself."



-Cave-

Ashe and Karin sheathed their weapons while Anastasia sighed and fell on her bottom to catch her breath. Walking up to Pit, Ashe asked, holding out a hand to help him stand up, "Can you stand? You're not hurt, are you?" "How do you think we should wake everyone up?" Anastasia asked, guessing that the others were put to sleep by magical means. Karin said, "There should be someway to wake them."



-Hot Springs-

Asuka was enjoying the water of the springs while Rei quietly sat in the spring. Lyle smiled and said to Tieria after noticing he wasn't wearing his glasses, "You look better without those glasses, Tieria." "Be quiet, Lyle." Tieria said, angry at him. "I simply didn't want to fog the lenses." Setsuna just enjoyed the water and looked at Lockon, he had taken off his eye patch as not to dampen it and the Haros. Setsuna noticed how he had his hair to cover up his right eye and kept quiet.



-Avia-

Applejack and Rainbow Dash gasped for air and stretched, looking around. "You're a fast little fellow, aren't ya, Link? I haven't run that fast, not even when I was roundin' up the cattle for the farm." Applejack said, smiling and sighed. Rainbow Dash smiled and said, "So, where is this big mean and scary guy? I'm itching to hurt him and try out some new moves on him!"



-Dream World-

"I feel that you are to awake soon." Serenity said, and began to leave. She looked at them and said, "I hope that when you dream again, we shall meet again." "Lady Serenity, wait! How do you know that we're supposed to wake up soon?!" Derpy said, surprised at her guess and watched as she began to leave. Fluttershy asked, "Are you sure that we will meet again, Lady Serenity?!" "Yes...." Serenity said, turning to them with a gentle smile.

 

Lastation: Noire's house.

Nico arrived at Noire's house to find some people already there... two of which he regonised. "Shepard! Whose the other guy and why are you carrying Zexion?"
"Nico! This is Darelen, he helped us against Orphan back on earth." Explained Shepard.
Darelen smiled at Nico and then looked back at Ienzo "We're carrying Ienzo because he refused to come of his own will." Darelen finished explaining.Ienzo looked at Nico's confused face and sighed. "Nico, when someone becomes a Nobody, the letters of their name are switched around and an X is added, my real name is Ienzo... and I am no longer a Nobody."
Nico would've asked when did this happen!? but decided not too, instead he carried Noire inside her home and placed her in bed. After making sure she was comfortable and kissing her cheek, he went down stairs were Darelen and Shepard were putting Ienzo in very fancy clothes that made him look rather handsome. "What's all this for?" Asked Nico, suspecting what the answer would be.
"We're trying to get Ienzo here to be with Blanc, because its evident he likes her." Answered Shepard, who was trying to comb Ienzo's hair.
"For the record, if I try to run they'll just drag me back unconsious." Ienzo stated.
Nico shook his head. "I'll keep watch and tell you when she gets here then?" Suggested Nico.
Both Shepard and Darelen agreed it was a good idea, so Nico stood watch whilst Darelen and Shepard continued to get Ienzo ready.

Hot Spring.

Jason had given up trying to keep Cloud from drowning himself, and instead decided to look around at the people there. It was deffinately an odd collection of people, so he decided to try and find the leader. Walking around, he couldn't discern which one of these odd people was the leader of this strange group, so instead he took his shirt off and laid in the Hot Spring. "If only Piper were here..."

Mordin on the other hand was busy trying to keep Cloud from drowning himself, so he had taken to tying Cloud to a conveniently placed tree. "There, job done, may not hold long. Best keep eye on Cloud." With his conclusion, Mordin kept watch on Cloud, who just wanted to die. Maybe the heat of the sun will kill me... He thought to himself.

Galleon.

Roxas, over hearing Ahim, climbed up the Crow's nest, but kept his prescence secret from Hermione... he wanted to be there for her, but if she wanted some time to herself, then she didn't have to know he was there.

Realm of Darkness - LionHeart

TerrAnsem was about to finish Mordred when suddenly... someone else finished him instead.
A flurry of moves done by a vaguely familiar person were unleashed on TerrAnsem. A giant "KO" came up infront of them and Squall turned to face Xion. "He's manipulating you, Xion. Its hard, but you have to get over Roxas; and yourself."
Xion tried to strike Squall, but he quickly disarmed her and rendered her unconsious. "All right... lets take them back to the Galleon." With that, and with Xion over his shoulder, Squall started walking with the others soon following.

 

~Lastation~

Haruto noted one of his PlaMonsters returning, it was the unicorn. "Oh, you found someone? Good work, can you lead us to them?" he asked politely as teh Unicorn headed off in a direction.

~Lastation Stock Conerfernce Building, well, just OUTSIDE~

The Garuda and Octopus Plamonsters found a building with actual lights on and Unicorn went to collect their Master, but from the place, a starnge pink haired woman and redheaded male had emerged from, making small noises as they spoke in their own langauge.

~Galleon~

Marvelous heard DOn's words and he approached him, almost face to face. "You don't think I know that Doc? I know for a fact it isn't the Granger's fault so don't bother to keep to reminding me." He said with finality and sat in hsi chair, legs crossed. "Bird, we're casting off, follwing the other ship after we have everyone on board." he said with a small tone of annoyance.

 

-Tartarus-

Jade simply smiled at them for questioning. "I have a fellow mage working on that right now. If the Sisters had waited, surely we would have gotten there. But instead they flew off. Now they'll be in last place."
"Jade! Don't tell me you sent that girl down there to repair it!"
"Oh? Is something that matter Anise? Would you like to fix it?"
Anise looked at him with puffy cheeks and sat down.

In the engine room, a girl with brown hair and mysterious red clothing was working with a strange device. "I know I can fix this formula. I am Rita Mordio after all, no formula can outmatch me.

Spoiler: Enter

"Just a few more phrases and incantations and there we go. The engine's blastia should be working once again." She banged on a pole to notify Jade that it was up and running.

"It seems that we are ready to go. Full steam ahead."

The Tartarus began to move extremely fast again. Within seconds, they had site of the landmass ahead of them. Lastation was a few moments away. Surely the sisters were either passed or they grabbed onto the giant ship to get their quicker.

[OOC= I am using young Conan because, well, I can]

-Dreamworld-

Konan awoke from her sleep and found herself in a wondering area known as the Dreamworld. Small creatures flew around and the sky was pink. Her eyes saw beauty in the place around her. It was then she noticed Fluttershy, Derpy, and Serenity. "E-excuse me, where exactly are we?" She said with a soft tone.
Riley left Marley alone for a while being that she seemed entranced by things and joined the group just up ahead. "Hello my ladies. I am Riley and this is my partner Luca- I mean Riolu. A pleasure to meet you."



-Lastation Conference Outside-

Estelle ran out with Luke following her. To the corner of her eye, she saw two creatures. She completely forgot what she was doing and ran to them. "Aww they are so adorable."
"Aren't we supposed to be going over to help Saisho?' Luke said from behind with a sarcastic look. "We don't have time for these stupid things."
Estelle grew mad as she looked at Luke. "I know that. but these two things look so adorable. I just need to make sure they weren't hurt from the falling building." She looked back at the two and began to use her healing artes.

 

~Lastation: Outside Noire's House~

After what seemed like a few minutes or more of walking Blanc and the others came across what appeared to be a large futuristic black house with sleek black surfaces, circle-shaped windows along with a large front lawn that had a water fountain in it, Blanc gently carried Neptune towards a pair of black doors that had silver handles on it before gently setting Neptune's head down and looked up at Kei asking "Do you have the keys to this place?" shortly before a familiar voice pointed out "Actually I have a spare key" shortly before Blanc looked up just as the CPU Candidates landed behind the three Oracles and two CPUs

"Hi sis, we're here!" Ram replied as she waved at Blanc before Rom asked "Um, where's Noire and Vert?" while tilting her head to the side before Blanc sighed as she explained "Noire ran off to see if Nico was here while Vert ran off after Verde since Chika had to be a ***** and made her fly off during the middle of trying to save this place from that stupid man's meteors" causing Nepgear to yelp as she said "Meteors!?" only for Blanc to shrug it off and say "I'll tell you about it later, right now we're trying to get Neptune and Ichigo inside" only for Uni to walk up to the doors and opened them just as the Candidates disengages HDD.

"See, it's open already" Uni explained before the Lowee CPU walked inside carrying Neptune's head as she went up the large red-rugged staircase telling Mina "Alright, let's get Neptune into bed"
　

~Lastation: Crystal Cave~

The next sound that Decious would hear was a metallic *CLANG!* before he was sent flying by the sheer force of the metal bat landing on the ground faceup groaning in pain, meanwhile the blobby dark mass that was on Cole jumped off away from him leaving his shirt in a tone of grayish-blue and white with an appearence that would seem to be pleasant and good-natured. This blob then immediatly started to take a humanoid shape before it formed into what appeared to be Cole...only this one seemed dark and manevolant with a red and black shirt with more darker features and a twisted grin on his face.

"Uh-oh, uh..Bentley?" Sly asked as he saw the new darker Cole arise up as Decious raised his head up mumbling "Don't you see...my new creation...will kill you" shortly before he started to crawl off while Evil Cole started to fire off blasts of lighting that were black with a red edge at everyone only for Cole to rise up qucikly and fired off several of his own white and blue blasts which caused some small explosions as the blasts hit together.

Meanwhile The Darkness had been clutching his chest shortly before he was knocked onto his back followed by feeling the full-force of a Dark Eco-infused explosion as he slid along the ground while his Black Widow Blade flew onto the ground away from it's owner. The Darkness struggled back onto his feet with one hand over his bleeding chest and his other hand drooping down limp, a rainbow aura started to emcompass around the boy of The Darkness as his eyes changed to a golden yellow.

Bentley quickly noticed that The Darkness' hands were glowing with a black and dark-red firey energy before he yelled out aloud in a panic "EVERYONE, GET OUT OF THE CAVE NOW!!!" shortly afterwards Murray grabbed Vert and made a mad dash towards the entrance just as The Darkness shot two large snaking black and red fireballs that were moving quickly.

 

~~The Hot Spring~~

Spoiler: This group really is gigantic right now

Having heard Genome's story, and seeing him begin to tear up and begin to worry about what his future may hold, Noriko felt sad. He truly reminded her of the one she had known before all of this. She wondered what ever had become of that one and his story, but quickly dismissed the thought, knowing she had to live in the present day now.
She placed her hand on his shoulder comfortingly, and tried to work everything out. She knew what he had said, and she believed it completely; she had lived through just as strange events, after all.
"Genome, just because the man who is our enemy used to be you doesn't mean that you will eventually be him. Look at Zen, okay? I was told that the Zen I pilot for you right now wasn't originally yours; it was your older self's that you stole from him. If you truly become him, then Zen shouldn't be able to exist. It would keep getting older and older with each passing cycle of you stealing it from your older self, but as far as anyone can tell, Zen is only as old as the Spiral King is. That means that the Zen we have now was never stolen before you took it from him, which in turn means that even though he used to look, think, act, and even be exactly like you, your experiences and feelings are your own."
Having said a lot in one go, Noriko took a short pause, before saying her overall meaning, summarizing her point.
"I think that, more than thinking of yourself as somebody who will become the enemy of humanity, you're the only person who can see what the Spiral King has done and make sure nothing like that ever happens. You can make the choice of who you become now, since at least one wrong path has been shown to you like this, so don't go thinking you're evil just yet."

"So, another hot spring, is it?" Kamina said, sat on a small rock, his hand gripping his chin with interest. "Not bad, not bad at all. Looks like somebody wants to reward us for our good work lately. I mean, we have done a lot these past two days."
"Yeah!" Simon replied, looking up at him happily for once. "But look how many of us there are this time!"
"Yeah!" Kamina said, his trademark grin growing there on his face. "Our family really has grown on this world, hasn't it? Old Spiral King up there on his throne won't know what hit him."
"Wait, you don't mean...?"
"Yeah. It's time we started hitting those Beastmen creeps hard. We'll show them that Team Dai-Gurren isn't something you can just mess with anymore."
"But their army is so huge!"
"Look around you, Simon. We aren't just a small group anymore either. And unlike the Spiral King, our guys are all aces. We all have some reason to want to fight beyond ''our boss said so'', y'know?"
"I understand that, but--"
"Simon." Kamina said with a slightly different tone suddenly, looking right into his eyes. "What is your drill for?"
"M-my drill? It's... for digging holes--"
"Wrong! Simon, your drill is the drill that will pierce the heavens and take us into a new life where nobody has to hide and shake in fear of earthquakes or Beastmen wanting to kill them."

"What a fool." Zero said, just out of earshot of the pair, with Kallen Kozuki, the pilot of the Guren Flight Type, and C.C., the immortal witch. "How can somebody like that be expected to lead an army of rebellion?"
"Are you perhaps jealous, Lelouch?" C.C. teased, smirking at him. "That such a ''fool'' managed to do just the same as you did, perhaps even easier, despite being that?"
"Be quiet." he replied, slightly annoyed. "Even I can see what it is that he has. He may be a fool, but it's obvious that his aspirations are something that people can follow. More importantly, do not use that name here. I am Zero."
"Hey, you!" a voice suddenly called out, catching the three off-guard. Kamina's duo had spotted them at last. "Who the hell are you? And why do you wear a mask like that?" Kamina growled, his eyes narrowed at Zero.
"I will not have demands made of me--"
"Zero." Kallen said, warning him briefly with that single word.
"...yes. Understood, Kallen." he said, before turning back to Kamina. "My name is Zero. My forces are know as the Black Knights. Our mission is to liberate Japan from the Empire of Britannia and grant us all independence!"


There was a long pause.


"...eh?" Kamina finally replied, his head tilting slightly to the side.
"W-What part of liberating Japan do you not understand, you moron?!"
"The Japan part! Just what the hell are you talking about, pal?! I don't know anything about something like that!"
Finally regaining his composure, Zero placed one hand on his mask and announced;
"Very well! You, Kamina Jiha of Team Dai-Gurren will come under my command! Join me!" he said, as a panel of his mask opened up, and the Geass Sigil flew from his left eye into Kamina's right.
Kamina's eyes glowed red briefly, as the sigil struck the man, and took control of his mind. There was a pause, as Kamina's growl fell slightly.
But then it suddenly came back.
"What the hell makes you think I would do something like that?!" he said, as the red outline to his eyes vanished. "Team Dai-Gurren isn't just a plaything, you know?!"
Zero and C.C. both stood there in confusion. They couldn't believe what they had just seen before their eyes. This man, Kamina, leader of Team Dai-Gurren, hadn't just resisted a Geass briefly,but seemingly completely denied it.
"...I... I see." Zero said, attempting to regain himself. "Then perhaps I underestimated your loyalty to your cause."
Yes, this would work. If he couldn't sway the man to come under his command, then he would simply do things the way he would have done back when he was nothing more than Lelouch Lamperouge; use words alone.
"If that is the case, then I propose an alliance. The Black Knights shall support and assist Team Dai-Gurren, and in return, Team Dai-Gurren shall support and assist The Black Knights until a day comes when both cease to exist!"
"What the hell?! Where do you get off deciding these things on your ow--"
"That's something I'd drink to." a third voice suddenly interrupted.

Spoiler: Enter...

"And you would be...?" Zero asked, motioning towards the new arrivals with interest.
"We're members of Celestial Being. My code name is Sumeragi Lee Noriega. This is Feldt Grace, Marie Parfacy, and Lasse Aeon, our Gundam Meisters. The rest of us are the crew of the Ptolemaios." Sumeragi answered, stepping forward with her relatively large group.
"We'll join up with this alliance too, if you'll allow us to."
"And what makes you so interested in this idea, may I ask?"
There was a short pause before Sumeragi answered the masked knight.
"Our actions once changed the world for the worse. We want to set that right, and to make sure we don't let something like that happen again."
"I see. Very well then; Celestial Being shall also become a part of this union."
"As will GGG." came another voice, as Kotarou Taiga stepped forward.
"And Nerv." said Gendo Ikari, as he joined the group.
"I will too." the voice of Amuro joined the party.
"What the hell, it might be interesting at least." Dearche added, a small smirk on her face while Yuri clung to her side.
"Very well! From this point on, let it be known that when any of our teams undertake a serious operation, they will never have to do so alone, regardless of things that may have happened in the past!"
"We'll need a name." Crowe spoke up.
"Gotta know who the repair bills go to!" Rand joked, giving a thumbs-up to the idea.
"Dai-Dai-Gurren!" Kamina suddenly said.
Nobody paid any notice.

**Several minutes later**

Spoiler: Music

The lot of them signed their organization names onto the contract that had been written up, before standing together in what appeared to be a briefing room off to the side of the hot springs. This would have been unusual, had it not been on planet Disgaea.
"Then it's decided. While our organizations are also separate and are free to recruit independently, from now we are all an official organization together also."
"ZEXIS." Zero spoke, looking at the map projection in the center of the room. "The EXtra-International Savers. It has an interesting ring to it."
"Then, if it's settled, it's time for everyone to get a well-deserved break from all this serious stuff." Sumeragi suddenly said, stretching out for a moment before walking back off to the Hot Spring, along with most of the rest of the cast.
"Indeed. Until ZEXIS's first operation." Zero said, and the group disbanded into their respective areas in the hot spring once more.

 

-Hot Springs-

Lockon left the hot springs to get away from the arguing between Tieria and Lyle. As he walked out, he noticed the group from the briefing room and gasped at the two familiar face, the younger one. Rubbing his eye and looking at them, Lockon said, "Miss Sumergai? Feldt?! Is that really you?!" He ran to them and was still in surprise. "Feldt..... So good to see you again..." "Feldt!! Feldt!!" The Haros shouted, rolling to her. "Good to see you! Good to see you!!"

-Galleon-

When Marvelous spoke to him face to face, Don didn't show any fear and just returned to the terminal, entering Lastation's coordination. Harry and Navi did a head count of those who had boarded the Galleon and confirming those who had boarded, gave the okay to set off. James noticed Roxas leave when Ahim said Hermione would be, he sighed and said, "I know it's a good time to be there for the one you care for, but they deserve to be alone if they need alone time..."

Up in the crow's nest, Hermione leaned against the railing and sighed, touching the Gokaiger symbol on her chest. Basco spoke to her through their mind link, "You should know when Marvelous says those things, they're directed at me not you." "I know that, but you make me feel like that they should be directed at me. It's hard enough now that we are sharing a co-existence together." Hermione told him, pushing her hair back and sighing.

-Lastation-

After hearing that Unicorn had found something, Lukya smiled and ran after Unicorn. Yuna gasped and ran after her, "Lukya, wait!!!! We don't want to lose you!!!" Edge used his Ninjutsu to follow them while Kain used his Jump Ability to follow, Rydia and Edward, along with the others, followed them as well. Lukya just followed the Unicorn and ran as fast as she could to follow it. Seymour followed the others and sighed at his sister's impatience.

~Lastation~

Haruto followed the running Lukya as others following the excited young Guado, giving a smile at the energy Lukya had at her disposal.

~Conference Building~

Red Guarda and Yellow Karken merely mvoed away from Estelle's healing ARtes, obivously not liking what she was doing until footsteps were heard with Unicorn prancing along the ground with lukya close behind her and others converging upon that point and haruto smiled. "Good job." he said and the plamonster gave out small cries before Haruto removed the rings and placed them inside his coat. "At least we found some survivors."

~GokaiGalleon~

The ship continued on it's ondue course to lastation with it's passengers, the ship being rather silent for that matter, tensiosn being up the air.

~Noire's House~

Ichigo was laid upon the bed, sleeping, his chest rising and lowering in tandem with his breathing, it was no honest surprise.

 

~~Hot Spring~~

​

Upon leaving the Briefing Room, the first thing that Feldt noticed was the two Haros approaching her; green and orange ones, respectively. The orange one she recognised plainly as the one that Lyle always used in Cherudim, and she began to bend down to pet him when she suddenly noticed Lockon standing before her.
Only, it wasn't Lyle. Though the two Dylandy brothers looked identical, Feldt had known both of them long enough now to be able to tell the difference in their stances, mostly so she could force herself to get past the fact that 'her' Lockon was dead, and that Lyle wasn't him.
But the man that stood before her right now was definitely alive and well. He even still had the patched eye from when he stubbornly refused recovery time in favour of staying in the fight with Dynames. Feldt had thought that she had prepared herself for anything, but seeing Neil Dylandy there in front of her as though nothing had happened, alive and well and exactly as she remembered seeing him last, was too much for her.

Without a single word, tears began to run down her cheeks, and she essentially threw herself at Lockon's chest, wrapping her arms around his body and sobbing into him, hiding her face, which she imagined was puffy and red from all her tears by now.
Doing that only confirmed his identity for her even more, as Lyle would never have felt so warm to her. So comforting.
"Neil..." she said quietly between sobs. "It's really you, Neil..."

 

-Hot Springs-

Though a bit surprised, Lockon smiled and held Feldt in his arms. He gently stroked her hair and said, "Yeah, it's really me, Feldt. Who else were you expecting?" "Lovey Dovey!! Lovey Dovey!!" The Haros shouted, flapping their ears and their LED eyes flashing as they watched Lockon and Feldt. Lockon laughed and held Feldt in his arms.

-Galleon-

Hermione stayed in the crow's nest, watching the passing scenery as the ship flew to Lastation, keeping a eye out for the landmass they were heading for. Luka came up and joined her, she was sure that Hermione felt the pressure in the nest, but she either didn't mind or didn't want to see who it was. In the cabin, Ahim had her cup of tea and felt the tension in the air, keeping quiet and unsure what to do. Don stayed at the terminal, looking for the landmass. Harry sighed and leaned against the wall, thinking.

-Lastation-

Lukya gasped and caught her breath after running after Unicorn, sitting on her behind. Yuna looked at the people and shyly waved at them, Edge and Kain landed and looked at the people. Vivi hid behind Garnet and looked at them, Fang held her spear while Snow spoke, "Uh, hello there." Serah kept quiet, holding Kholine's crystal. Edward noted their unusual clothes and Rydia looked at them, Seymour just gave his sister a Hi-Potion and looked at the people, curious about them.

 

~/Hot Springs\~​

​

​

A gust of wind with the power of a cannon behind it flew across the hot springs. Zero looked to the skies and took in a large lung full of air. Kallen was knelt over beside him with a twitching face.​

She whispered, "Lelouch...what the hell are you doing?"​

"I live, Kallen. I feel alive again."​

"You're sitting shoulder deep in a hot spring with swim trunks and your helmet on.."​

"It's the most invigoration I've felt in months, however my helmet has fogged something fierce. Could you possibly wipe down the front so I can see?"​

"Sir people are staring."​

"At what? My power?"​

"No, at your skinny ass white self."​

Zero dipped farther into the water so only his helmet was showing.​

"Now you resemble a demonic shark."​

"I am the night."​

​

~/Edge of the Hot Springs​

​

​

​

"The king has returned."
The wind caused Scar's mane to whip in the air behind him as he gave a devilish smile toward the hot springs. Soon thereafter the enormous gust of wind hit the lion causing him to go flying backwards, smashing into all manner of things.
"You will rue this day wind! You're supposed to blow softly as my mane whips slightly. Haven't you seen any anime opening ever?!"
A muffled noise came from under Scar, "qirgnfymvkn"
"Gesundheit."
"HSJCNUNXBS OSBG!!"
"That's a personal probably my'dear, best get that checked by you're local-" Scar was kicked by the girl beneath him, throwing him into another random assortment of hot spring items.

Spoiler

​

"BAKA LION, I WILL KILL YOU INTO SUBMISSION."
"Well, I'll admit that would be rather effective.."
The girl rushed Scar with a wooden sword, though she was barley 4'11 her eyes screamed 27th degree murder. Scar lunged out of the way as her sword came crashing down on an inner tube. The inner tube exploded and sent the girl flying into the formally trying to compose himself Scar.
"This appears to be a pattern of sort, perhaps we both need to go chill for a tick."
The girl twitched and clenched her fists, but eventually let out a sigh and nodded. "Fine. Baka Lion."
"My name is Scar, King of the Lands formally known as the Pride."
"Baka Lion."
"Palmtop Tiger."
The two tackled each other into the water and carried on their argument.

 

~~Hot Spring~~

​

As Feldt sobbed, the two Haros spoke up, and their claim of "Lovey-dovey" made the girl drift from tears to gentle laughter, though more than anything she was laughing from how happy she was that Neil was alive and well. Through all of this, she didn't let go of him, as though she were afraid if she did he would stop being there.
Sumeragi approached the duo, seeing that Feldt had had her moment with the man, and prepared herself to speak to the Gundam Meister who should have died.
"Lockon, it's good to see you again." she said to him, with a smile. "I think there's a few things we should explain before anymore confusion happens. You seem surprised at Feldt being so happy to see you again, is that right?"
"It's because to Lockon, that incident never happened." a new voice stated, as the tallest of the Gundam Meisters entered; Allelujah Haptism.

​

"Allelujah!" Marie exclaimed, embracing the man as he entered.
Though he embraced her back happily, his expression quickly changed back to serious as he looked at Lockon, still holding Marie in his arms.
"Lockon, to us, you were killed a battle against Ali-Al Saachez two years ago when you left a damaged Dynames and attempted to shoot him down with a detached GN Cannon. Though you succeeded in shooting him down, he survived, and you died when the cannon exploded next to you, damaged by his last shot."

Lockon looked as though he wanted to say something, but knowing him, Sumeragi spoke first.
"It's true, Lockon." she confirmed. "You died because you weren't able to put aside your want for revenge for your family."
"Lichty and Chris died in the next battle." Feldt said quietly to him, still in his arms. "When the first Ptolemy was destroyed by the united governments GN-X Mobile Suits."
"I understand this must be a lot to take in at once, Lockon." Sumeragi said, "But I want to ask you something first. If you meet that man again; Ali-Al Saachez, the man who has killed you once already, will you be able to put your feelings aside and make sure that above all else you survive? If that isn't something you can do, we will be relying on Lyle and Feldt for sniper support without you from now on."
"Sumeragi..." Feldt said, unsure of how else to respond to her firmness.
"We've seen you die once before, Neil." she said, using his real name to point out how serious she was. "Between you, Lichty, and Chris, we've seen too many people die already. Before we let you back out there, we have to know we won't see you die again."

​

"Perhaps it's best that Zero's body is so pale and unattractive." C.C. said, having suddenly appeared next to Lelouch with no warning. "You wouldn't want somebody else finding him attractive now, would you, Kallen?"
If one were to draw their eyes away from the teasing smirk adorning her facial features right now, it would have been obvious that the swimsuit she wore was one that covered far more than normal swimwear would be expected to. Though it wasn't a one-piece outfit, the top half came down approximately to the bottom of her rib cage, while the bottoms appeared relatively normal in terms of skimpiness. While Zero would understand the reason behind this unexpectedly modest choice of swimwear, Kallen and anyone else watching would simply be left wondering why she was apparently showing less skin than usual.
"An advance warning, Lelouch." She said quietly, turning to Zero for a moment, after making sure that nobody else was within earshot of her words. "There are quite a few people who look human, but are not. It would be wise to be careful who you attempt to use Geass on, if you intend to keep that party trick under wraps."

~~~???~~~

A long pathway, with nothing but a pitch black storm in every other direction.
Thunder clapped and lightning flashed down, as rain fell below it, for yes, this place was far above the surface of the planet, in the border between spaces.
This was where Kriemhild Gretchen, the Witch of Mercy, and her master were planned to meet. The Dimensional Cradle.

​

"You're late." the man on the throne spoke, his entire body covered in shadow, obscuring him.
"I'm sorry, King of Destruction." the Witch said, bowing slightly. "I had to rely on that Doctor Scaglietti's ship to transport me here, and he is... a whimsical one."
"Hmph. There is no need for apologies between people like us, Gretchen." he said, beckoning the girl to stand once more. "What news do you bring?"
"Three items of significance." she began, "First, Caius Ballad is almost ready to begin his plan."
"He will fail."
"Second, Britannia's leaders appear to be in discussion with the king of Insalaum, Uther."
"Hrn. Something that could be used later, if necessary."
"The third thing... a huge number of pilots of robots and magical warriors has gathered together in a hot spring that wasn't originally on Disgaea. The result is that they have banded together under the name of ZEXIS, with the intention of supporting each other through any and all future events."
The figure on the throne sat silent for a while, before his features shifted into a maniacal grin, with his teeth bared.
"That I like." he said, laughing slightly to himself. "Yes... ZEXIS. This may prove to be a lot of fun yet."
"There is one more thing that may be of interest."
"Hn?" the man said, turning to face his underling again and seeing what she was showing him."
His grin returned.
"Gretchen, come with me. It seems that somebody else will get to play before ZEXIS."
Gretchen grinned in return, her own teeth looking as sharp and violent as the man's, as the Dimensional Cradle began to move...

 

-Outside the Temporal Tower-

Neku looked up at the tower. The time distortion reminded him a lot of the Games. This world they were on had been going into shambles. The tower he looked at had to be of some responsability. Everything around it just seemed to malfunction in some way. A paradox roaring through time striking the world beneath their feet.
Konan awoke from the slumber that she had taken. Her memories of the dreamworld were very slight and brief. It did not matter now though. The only thing on her mind was finding Nagato and Yahiko. Another disturbance was the fact that she awoke next to a man. This man made a brief appearance to her back in the Dreamworld, but as a boy instead of this man. Riley was the name she remembered.
Riley as well awoke in front of Konan. He did not expect to see such a young girl. He thought Konan would have been much older in age. He rose to also see a boy with orange hair in the distance as well as a girl with yellow hair. "It is quite nice to be back in the real world. Go Lucario!" He said releasing the Pokemon from its Pokeball.
Neku turned back to see two newcomers to his party. "More players, huh? Rikku, we got company."
Konan stood and looked at them. "My name is Konan of the Hidden Rain. I am looking for my friends Yahiko and Nagato. Have you perhaps seen them?"
"I can't say I have. We have been here for a while and have just been looking at the tower ahead."
Riley looked up at the tower. This was the reason to why he went to the dreamworld and brought Konan. He was looking for help to get inside the tower. Dialga, the Pokemon of Time and maybe even Celebi had been disturbing the cycle of time. "The tower is a dangerous one. I couldn't get anywhere near because of the guards and the time vortex surrounding it. I had hoped to have Konan here help me in exchange for locating her friends." He paused for a moment. "I apologize. My name is Riley and this is my partner Lucario." Lucario slightly bowed.
"The name is Neku Sakuraba. I feel as if the tower there has a similar force to that of the Reapers. I have tried to get past their shields. It is near indestructible."
"Through time and effort you can overcome these small barriers in your path. Never let your ambitions dissolve."
"Yeah. Ambitions... right."
Riley began to focus on the tower. "The aura coming off of it has been weakening slightly since last time I checked it. Something feels off about it."
"I still feel a powerful chakra coming from it. There are several beings within that have great strength. More than a normal individual should poses."
"You guys are reading all just saying that. There is no way to "sense" another person. That is what I would normally say. But I have seen many things to believe you. Anyone have a plan for getting in?"



-Outside the Conference Building-

Estelle lowered her hands when she saw the creatures not approve of what she had been doing. When a large group of people came she simply got up and smiled. "Hi. My name is Estelllise. It is a pleasure to meet you all. This here is Luke fon Fabre, the prince of Lastation. I am the princess of this place as well."
Luke jsut sniffled. He saw Estelle wasting time again. "Estelle. We are wasting time. D-Reaper is going to destroy this place remember."
"I know but we cant just leave these people here with a building that just collapsed. Is anyone harmed at all?"



-Nore's House: Lastaion-

The Oracles grabbed Ichigo and Neptune and laid them on the bed.
Chika sat on the chair, kicking off her shoes and relaxing. "Such a good thing to finally be able to sit down."
"Chika, we have work to do. The D-Reaper is harming shares which in turn is weakening the Goddess."
"I am also worried about Lady Green Heart and Verde."
"They'll be fine. Vert is a big girl and can take care of the trash."
"Why are you so mean to Verde, Chika.?"
"Because she isn't fit to be a candidate. She is too weak to fight."
"At one time so were we. If not more weak."
"Kei is right you know. If it wasn't for Historie we'd be helpless."
"Our levels are high enough for us to do damage even without the HDD forms."
"I think you are being arrogant again. You acted like this when you heard Ichigo and Vert had a thing."
"Nobody touches my Vert except for me!"
Saisho coughed in the corner of the room, "I am glad you oracles are getting along and all but things are becoming tragic. There was an earthquake up in the Crystal Cave as well as a building collapsing near the conference hall. I am afraid Lady Green Heart and her sister may have come to a tragic fate. Also Lady Black Heart will be experiencing some tragic weaknesses in the coming moments."



-Lastation Crystal Cave-

Verde heard the scream to evacuate immediately. Before she could locate Vert, she had vanished. Vert was nowhere to be found. Verde began to panic and had no clue what to do. She quickly shook her head and saw the exit of the cave. Transforming into her HDD form, she jolted out of the cave with her wings. She flew up and began to search the area. "Vert! Where are you... please be okay."

 

~Temporal Tower~

Inside the tower was a young brunette no older than 27 or so was at work baking something.She hummed an opera song as she mixed the ingredients, then shoved them in the oven. While she waited, she took to dusting off her desk, her chair, and everything else where she currently resided.

The timer dinged a few minutes later. "Ah! Good! It's done!" She rushed over to the oven and pulled out a soufflé.

But, it wasn't actually a soufflé, it was a burnt, black blob. The woman sighed, and threw it away. "Another one goes to waste..." It was then that she heard voices outside. She rushed to her computer (which was luckily connected to the many cameras a demoness named Zone-tan had installed around the tower).

"Hello!? Hello!" She spoke into the microphone.

Rikku turned and looked into the camera. "Well hi!"

The woman sighed with relief. It was just a bunch of kids. She was amazing with kids. After all, they didn't name you Junior Entertainment Manager of the Starship Alaska for having no skill with them, did they? "Could you send someone in please? My ship is crashed and I can't get out. I feel like it's under the tower!"

Rikku gasped. "Of course! I'll get Neku to come! And Einheart too! She's REAL strong! What's your name anyway? Mine's Rikku!"

"Oswin Oswald. It's nice to meet you, Rikku."


The young girl rushed to her friends. "Neku! Eiheart! There's a lady in a ship under the tower! Or in the tower... I don't know, we just have to save her!"

​

Shall we compare Kallen's face to a lemon being smashed into someone's face, not to mention the red blush that was flushing her entire body. She couldn't think of a comparable comeback so she slammed her head underneath the water, screaming some indiscernible words that popped up in air bubbles. After a moment of this she stormed off to the changing rooms to adorn her swimsuit.
Zero turned his helmet to look at C.C, "Thanks. You know who has to deal with that? Me. You're trouble enough on your own, instigating others burdens me further." Steam began rising off of Zero's helmet.
"...I'm not actually all that flustered.. however I may pass out in a minute from this heat. Before that happens I'll take heed your words. Caution will need to be taken at all turns if we're going to succeed."
A moment of silence passed before Zero noticed a shadow falling down upon him, this was immediately flowed by Kallen's body tackling him completely into the water. The two returned to the surface a moment later with Kallen's arms constricting around Lelouch's neck.
"Look at the strong commander of the Black Nights, unfazed by the internal temperature of his helmet capable of roasting up a rotisserie."
"Kallen, your top came off again.. Didn't it."
She twitched, "No..I'm just really enjoying this warm embrace."
"That'd be funnier if I wasn't about to have a heatstroke."
The two shuffled toward the steps leading out of the springs, however they and C.C. weren't the only ones taking a dip in the springs.

​

​

"baka baka baka baka baka baKA BAKA LION"
Zero and Kallen were bashed back underwater when Scar came swimming by at breakneck speed in a inner tube, Taiga in hot pursuit aided by every manner of inflatable pool device created by man and Grell.
"You'll never catch me lass! Not after I switch this inner tube into maXIMUM OVERDRIVE! HEY-YA!"

Scar began swimming about 1/200 of a knot faster.

Lelouch and Kallen regained their composer after surfacing, however now Lelouch had his arms around Kallen, covering her endowments.
"I can't tell if I like where this is going or I'm loosing consciousnesses."
"Whatever the case don't move until we can figure this out!"

Sitting at a table with an umbrella shading, a figure watched the events unfolding in the water. Twirling a straw around in a drink the figure chuckled slightly, "Oh how I love my little toys in their natural habitat. It makes for such great entertainment!"
