"Than..ks." Willow mumbled to the robot, now easily grasping her lighter thanks to how much closer it was to her. Slowly pushing herself into a sitting position, Willow lit her lighter and let out a relieved sigh. It was near indescribable to describe the tidal wave of relief that swept through her to know that her prized possession wasn't broken. In fact, it mildly puzzled her as to how it wasn't. Willow gazed at the small flame produced by the lighter, feeling her shaken spirits calm a little down as the small, yet majestic flame flickered in front of her. Though she was reluctant to, after what felt like a few minutes she doused the tiny fire and finally took a good look around the room, feeling the once agonizing pain slowly trickle into an ache.

After all, she could always admire a larger fire later.

She instantly noticed that most of the misfits she had noted before were more focused on a demon-like creature than her and the other man who had seemingly been caught in the explosion, save for the robot pushing her lighter over to her. Willow felt a small twinge of hurt but didn't focus on it longer than a split-second. Although the woman sifting through the notes was only really talking to the demon-like creature rather than her, she still piped in with her gentle, flute-like voice, "Cobblepot? Tesseract? No, nothing I've ever heard before. The last thing I remember before I somehow was rudely awakened by an electric shock was stealing a Tallbird egg in The Constant. I have no idea what occurred between then and now that brought me here....my name is Willow, to get that question out of the way."

Alphonse Elric
Rather then the deep jungle, Alphonse found himself in Resembool, his hometown. The imposingly trees were replaced by endless fields and the stale air was replaced with a strong breeze that the grass elegantly danced with. He looked down and realized the dirt and cobblestone path he now stood on was the one that led to his childhood friend’s house. There was no mistaking it, he was home.

He would have actually believed it if there it weren’t for one thing. It was too deathly quiet for it to be Resembool. The friendly chirping of birds and buzzing of bugs was no where to be found. Even the sound of the wind was lost. Wherever this is, it definitely wasn’t the Resembool he knew. Concerning how exactly he entered this illusion of his home, Alphonse theorized it had something to do with when he touched his mother’s hair. For now there wouldn’t be any use to pondering over it. He needed to figure it how to get of this illusion. Not even realizing he was still crouched over, Alphonse got up and began to walk down the path.

Just a mile or so away from the house Alphonse suddenly stopped. Behind him he heard something. A loud clanking noise that was unmistakably his but......he wasn’t walking anymore. Slowly Alphonse craned his helmet to discover what was behind him. It was an exact replica of himself.

The copy of Alphonse looked exactly like him in every way. Even the minuscule scratches the young alchemist had gained during his adventures was perfectly replicated on the imposter. Yet the way it “acted” so to speak made a clear difference between the two. It stood stiff and made no indication that it had once been stalking him. Before he could investigate further something oozed from the inside of it. It was black, misty, and pooled throughout the cracks of the armor like water. As it polled the thin streams of mist began to solidify into individual arms. They crawled out of the suit with an animalistic movement. Once most of limbs were expelled, the armor was almost completely consumed by the shadowy mist. Ending its period of stillness, the armor went into a battle stance before charging at Alphonse. That was the last thing he remembered before he lost consciousness.

Anyone who happened to also land in this false Resembool would have found themselves quite the distance away from Alphonse. It would have taken a while to catch up with him and by the time they did the encounter would have already ended. The imposter stood over Alphonse’s unconscious body simply staring at him. As soon as it noticed the strangers walk up, the imposter’s shadowy arms lunged at them with the intent to kill.

Lyle frowned at the revelation. Strange. The Research Room was a dead end. He hoped the Simulation Room had a better time.
  
  "Anything interesting, Len, Takemi?" asked Lyle as the two of them investigated the wooden desk and computer. He stood guard nearby to prevent anything foolish to happen to their only clue forward. iThe two captives worried him as well, but they had enough people worrying over them already.

  Steve wasn't so sure about going to the Simulation room after seeing the huge doors closing behind him. He would think about blowing them open but they appeared to be too thick, as they wouldn't break when he tried mining them. The block man wasn't that scared about the appearance of the passive little monsters, after all he had to travel to the nether and hell.
  
  He would just make sure to follow Alphonse, as he'd lose sight of Ritsu. Following him through the jungle he would be somewhat surprised when all the sudden it turned from unfriendly dark jungle to a nice little hamlet on a sunny day. Looking to Ike who was apparently still with them, he would ask his voice making him appear confused;
  
  "Do you see what I'm seeing?" he would say before Alphonso would go off on his own towards the house, the monster appearing behind him. Still they were too far away to get into melee range so all Steve could do is switch to his crossbow and shoot a few arrows.

You flip your absolute shit mid sentence as you descend into some sort of- new- place!!! Some.. neighborhood...? It was just so sudden, and it kept happening, you didn't understand!! You find yourself with a few others... some blocky dude and uh... whoever this... white haired guy is... but- that doesn't matter!! Where was this?? You were trying to figure it out, while walking... this place didn't register as familiar to you...

"W... what just- ugh... happened... WHY does this keep happening- eh...?"

You look around... and then to where the... uh... blocky guy was pointing... and firing arrows at...

"Wh.. what is... what sort of... cryptic is that... it's not a common type if i've ever seen one..."

You... realized it was about to- TO KILL the Alphonse guy!!!

"O-OH FFFRR... S-SHOULDN'T WE HELP HIM!? I MEAN- I DON'T KNOW WHAT KIND OF DEMON THAT IS, IF IT IS, BUT IT'S NOT FRIENDLY!!!"

You begin to panic... THIS is what you promised you would help with, and so you begin walking over, making timid frantic noises, staring straight at it's eyes, like a 'IM F*CKIN WARNIN YOU'.

"H-HEY!! W... WHAT DO YOU THINK Y-YOU'RE DOING... LEAVE HIM ALONE...!!"

You grimace, bearing your surprisingly sharp demon teeth, hissing quietly, your tail raised in aggression.

"I.. I'M WARNIN YA.... YA BETTAH RUN OFF!!! C-CREEP!!!"

You look... mildly silly, being a 5"3' twink, challenging someone to what might end up being a fight... BUT!!! You promised you would fight during the next conflict, and you're a man of your word! ...You had a feeling this wasn't going to turn out well anyways though...

Jerome-092
​

Jerome grunted as the first pellet hit him. It did little else but bring his shields down to half. In the time it took Psycho to take the kid down, they had already recharged.

Jerome was about to check for vital signs when he saw the kid and the weird floating text reappear.

This justified, he holstered both pistols, and drew his Spartan Laser. It worked on Croc, so maybe they could get it to work here.

The pellets, again, despite their power, didn't hurt Jerome so much. His targeting laser already appeared as the weapon charged. He was quick enough and (since unlike Psycho he hadn't charged Chara) had some distance, so dodging wasn't a problem for him.

It was soon to be a problem of Chara's, since Jerome's laser, once charged, was instant.

"...who?" The imp asked Parappa, who appeared to not be very fond of her. Probably her rudeness, she assumed. She was about to snap back at the paper dog, however her attention was soon taken away by Rin, who had taken it upon herself to ask about fifty questions at once.

"W--wha--hold on a second, kid!" She shouted, though it looked like her brother had the same idea as he quickly told her to stop. With a sigh, she took a breath, before quickly regaining her composure and crossing her arms. She then looked over to Hat Kid, who had pointed at her former cage, which made the imp cock a brow. "Okay... what exactly does that have to do with me? Or who you people even are?" She asked, looking over the group with a suspicious glare. It looked like she couldn't remember anything at all.


As Len turned the computer on... what luck! He saw that it would open up to an e-mail account of whoever used this computer last. Though after some quick inspection you found to your disappointment the only thing on the computer were conversations about increasing revenue of their products, a few power point presentations about synergy and work relations, and a recipe for an apple pie. It seemed that despite Cobblepot's shady underbelly, he still ran a legit company in some form.

Raising her voice in trying to explain, all that came out was stutters and stammers, as though she were genuinely struggling to speak. Pausing in between each verbal fumble and noticeably growing more and more flustered, Hat Kid eventually gave up. Lips pursed and button-nose wrinkled, Hat Kid ran off towards the nearby desk to rummage through its papers while actively ignoring Len's company.

Aha! It seemed all the computer's components and accessories were properly plugged and in a good state! Grinning to himself over a job well done as the CPU had started turning on, Len got out from under the desk, watching filled with antecipation as the monitor spring to life and the OS loaded. Beside him, Takemi seemed to have a similar idea, going through the documents in the desk one by one carefully, holding a notepad possibly to write down any important information.

Meanwhile, in the adjacent side of the room, Rin hadn't had much luck with her new friend's introduction. Poor thing was super duper confused and asked who they were! But also what the cylinder glass thing had to do with her. Kemi took care of the first question, a lot better than someone like the female vocaloid could have done it, so this left the girl with the second question... She cleaned her throat to get ready and released one of her infamous machine-gun explanations:

"So, you were inside that thing", she pointed at the broken cylinder, "and then two big zappy things zapped you! And you were screaming in pain, so then Subby...", she pointed at Sub-Zero, "This is Subby by the way... Anyway! Subby here went 'Hyaaa!', punched the glass and rescued you! Though he also made the whole thing go boom...!", she gestured raising her open palms in a rotational, diagonal motion, mimicking an explosion, "That's when you went 'waaaaaaa' and then 'tum!' hitting this wall here", after making a flying motion with her hand, Rin had pointed at the wall directly near them, "And that's why we're all checking on ya and- Ohhhhhhh"

At that moment, the older sibling had noticed something very important:

"You have the anemonesi thingy! I get it!"

The girl beamed proudly as if she had solved the hardest jigsaw on the world on her own, posing with her hands on her waist. But then she wasn't sure anymore...

"Uhhhhh, Leeeen!!", Rin turned around requesting assistance from her brother who was inspecting the computer. "What is it?" "How you call that thing again??!" "What?", he let out understandably confused, "What thing?" "Ah you know, that anomesia thing that you get when you hit your head really strong!!" A facepalm could be heard in the background, "It's amnesia, Rin." "Oh! Okay then. Thank you~!"

"That thing he said, that I already forgot!", she had announced cheerfully pointing at her busy brother.

Len's inspection of the computer files hadn't been as successful as he had expected. Inside an e-mail account that someone had forgotten to close, all he could find were conversations about sales, some work PowerPoints and... an apple pie recipe?! He was really puzzled about that last one, it just didn't seem to belong with the rest of the found files. Impulsively, the male vocaloid reaches for his headset exerting some pressure at the end of one of the speakers. With a 'click' sound a compartment rolls out like a drawer and the tip of a USB cable can be seen. He looks at the screen again, there is a chance that the apple pie might be a distraction, that it's a code to throw off anyone snooping and in that case, it might be useful to copy the file to take along. But then also...

It's an old computer that clearly didn't get a lot of use, in the enemy's base. Did he really want to risk connecting into an unknown computer with the risk of getting malware, or worse, triggering some anti-copy measure? No, the risk wasn't worth it. With a defeated sigh, Len slides the USB drawer back inside the headset with a new 'click' as the drawer was locked into place. He let it go, no point in making Takemi transcribe an entire recipe by hand either, especially if it did turn out to be just that, an apple pie recipe. The machine was too old for Wi-Fi as well, being connected to the network through a blue, thick old fashioned cable. Sadly, Len didn't have a compatible port to try and get to other machine's file by using it. The computer diving had been a dead-end.

When the cartoon paper dog had started complaining at her, Rin's expression contracted into a pout clearly annoyed by its words. A criminal? That sweet poor little thing?! Nonsense! If they had taken everyone the big fatty had trapped as a dangerous person, didn't that mean that they were included in that too? They had been trapped inside the biiig white room once too, right? And were they criminals? No! Such a faulty piece of logic was enough for Rin as she had mentally nodded to herself.

And again! Look at her, so delicate and lost... Nah, there was no way she was dangerous.

At least her 2D canine friend seemed to see some reason as he had corrected himself. Though he was right that they should hurry and join the other group as soon as possible. The girl already missed everyone and their fun shenanigans... even if most of them hadn't interacted with her that much... But they were all her friends regardless!

"Well, she doesn't seem to remember any of that, so can't really blame her", the girl shrugged, huh they needed a name for their new friend in that case...

As Len turned the monitor off and turned around to leave the wooden desk, he was greeted by the sight of someone new. A little girl that resembled a child's sketch drawing that might not be that much older than Hat Kid or even his own sister's 12-year life span. Deeming her harmless, he greeted her with a smile:

"Oh, hello there. I don't think you were with us beforehand, were you?", he asked, crouching down to meet the girl eye to eye, putting on a pleasant, soft tone, "Well, nice to meet you Willow, I'm Len and the one all the way over there is my sister, Rin", he had completed, pointing at the excitable blonde chatting with a flat cartoon dog with a skateboard. She'd probably notice the fact that the right side of the ribbon in the girl's head had half of it eaten away and singed, definitely by the work of a fire source.

Oh! And talking about the Hat Kid! She had decided to join the searching party too! Len left her to Takemi seeing as the document on the desk were her jurisdiction to flip through.

"No luck with the computer Walt-san!", Len replied making a report, "Despite being so much as of a fat rat as he is, it seems Cobblepot does know how to hide his dirty tracks quite well..."

  Dodging would have to do as Psycho would buy time for Jerome's laser to go off. The girl was on her last lags but it was hard to tell due to how annoying she was being. Those demonic knifes were a pain in the ass and not only that, hopefully none of those red demon knives would hurt the Spartan.
  
  The MTOC:
  
  As Psycho prepped the dangerous weapon, he prepped his suit for Maximum speed, playing side step every so often.
  
  A few demonic knifes fell to the ground, almost red tinted. Was that blood on them or something else? Honestly, Psycho didn't wish to find out.
  
  Psycho had to charge this weapon as well.
  
  As the MTOC charged, so did Jerome's laser.
  
  Sooner than later, Psycho's MTOC was ready and he held it up, a blast flying toward chara. If hit, (Chara would be a block of ice)
  
  Hopefully that would buy time for Jerome to finish his attack

The Italian Swindler quickly took his Yo-Yo's from his pockets and wore them after seeing the shadowy arms lunged at them, almost dropping one of his weapons because of how hasty he was acting. He did a few tricks to warm himself up and to make sure the Yo-Yo's are working completely fine before giving the enemy a shit-eating grin accompanied by a death glare in an attempt of intimidation, going on a defensive position, planning to slap and hit the arms out of the air with his four weapons, protecting the blocky Steve dude so he can attack while the demon person. . .

Willow gave a small smile. "Well, I guess it's a pleasure to meet you too." She replied, returning Len's greeting. Getting up from her seated position on the floor, Willow scanned the floor and picked up Bernie--her teddy bear--, who'd saved her trouble by ending up nearly right next to herself. Plucking a few stray pieces of glass from her old friend, she made her way over to the young woman who she had been told was Rin. Tapping the blonde on the shoulder, Willow told the accessorized Vocaloid, "I like your bow. Fire really does make everything better.", and pointed to the burnt part of her hair accessory. The pyromaniac grinned at her like this was a perfectly normal compliment to give someone.

Neferu observed her surroundings, she saw that a female was trying to destroy the statue, we can't have people trying to ruin this grand event, can't we?

"You there, lady on the statue. Now, what do you you're doing?"

Her body changed as she held her staff high in the ground and proceeded to transform into a beetle. She flew high in the air, taking the girl in the statue as well, and proceeded to fly as she took damage from the ball of flames that she gathered, she landed somewhere near Saber and said,

"Darling, you are not ready for what you are about to face..."

The statue proceeds to shake, as chains wrap the statue, and Double becomes the lock that will loosen the chains, the cathedral is almost filled with blood. Neferu slashes Saber, cutting open her skin as well.

"Oh my, your blood... It smells heavenly."

She proceeds to stand where the statue was and drink more of it's blood. Yhe drink was quite refreshing, she noticed some lances coming her way, she dodged elegantly, almost spinning like a ballerina and said,

"You have to do better than that, only the worthy can defeat me..."

Alphonse’s Imposter
Most of the arrows shot from Steve’s crossbow managed to take down the shadowy arms. One by one they fell from the air and retreated into the depths of the imposter’s armor. It appeared that if the arms were damaged even slightly, they would immediately be destroyed no matter how soft the attack was. Though as soon as one arm fell, another quickly took its place within the writhing sea of limbs. It wouldn’t appear to be effective to only aim for the arms.The imposter would have continued with this style of attack if it weren’t for a certain demon who caught it’s attention. It held no reaction to the young man’s threats and demands for it to leave but instead merely saw him as an opportunity to defeat another target. While around ten limbs were sent out to once again attempt to grab Steve or Tandem, the armor itself began to charge at Ike with the combined force of a herd of angry bulls as it used the rest of its limbs for momentum. If the tiny demon didn’t move out of the way he would definitely be in some serious trouble.

As the vampire turns her back on Sabre and Shirou her suspicions were confirmed, this statue was important and the fool charged recklessly to defend it. With a final push, she allows gravity to do the rest of the work meaning they would need to prioritize either stopping the statue breaking or attacking her, in either case, it left her wide open for the attack she had taken the bait for. Extending her hand the skeleton of the woman below all the blood an invisible force takes hold, clutching around the neck as the charge is suddenly stopped and the pressure can be felt of choking unless evaded.

Having used the statue as cover to block view of her position however she has run op and flipped over the entire thing in the air letting the fire crash into the wall behind, with the Vampire in place sabre would not be a target for them, nor would they be able to dodge the incoming projectiles ready to make her a pincushion, It becomes more than obvious this target had no tact just flamboyant theatrics, too used to singular battle. A small smile crosses the girls lips, they really should have accepted the knights dual, a fact made all the more clear as her free hand makes several quick movements, the chains severing like paperless they try and remove the space she had created on the flat side of the statue...and if fortunate enough also fall atop the woman being held in her other.

"SABRE! PROMISED VICTORY IS IN YOUR HANDS RIGHT?" The words likely meaning little to the vampire yet she was fairly sure the famed Knight King would not forget the name of her won weapon.

  Steve wouldn't react when he saw that the hands were easily dealt with, but if he could he frown. Easy to deal with monsters that re spawned easily would be like trying to deal with silverfish when one of the blocks nearby was it's next, but it's not like he really had a choice. Looking around to how the rest of his team dealt with the threats he would be satisfied with how Tandem carried himself. He wasn't so sure about Ike though.
  
  And he was right to not be sure of that, as the evil clone of nicely mannered Alphonso decided not to be nicely mannered and charge for the weakest looking person in the group. Luckily Steve simply removed the hands going for him easily with the crossbow, before shuffling himself in the way of the monster charging towards Ike, betting on the fact that he might not be able to change trajection.
  
  "Mister, please stick behind me and keep taunting the beast." he then would turn his head towards Tandem. "I'm sorry but I'm not aware of your name, but your weapons seems very effective at dealing with the hands, please keep doing that."

TANDEM, THE ITALIAN SWINDLER

"No sweat, Jet!" Tandem said, giving Steve a little wink of approval as he kept on shooting arms out of the air with style and grace while doing flashy flips to impress the two he's working with and maybe the enemy, this was easy enough, the clone isn't as tough as he looks. He might even be able to take this guy down by himself without the help of Steve and Ike but that's just his assumption! The Italian Swindler's unrivaled stamina is getting put into good use here because he can hit and dodge those shadowy hands all day if he has to but then the evil clone started to engage us, most especially Ike; scaring Tandem a bit but he managed to keep his cool and keep knocking those hands down.

"So, how exactly are we gonna knock this big doofus down?" Tandem asked the two without looking at them because he's focusing on the shadowy arms coming their way. He was getting kind of bored doing nothing but knocking down hands down left and right and how exactly are they gonna manage to strike trough his armor again? This might get tough if this keeps up but Tandem stayed determined because if he dies in this simulation, he might die in real life and he's not taking any chances because he still wants to go home and see his two pals. . .

"Responsiveness of organism confirmed."
Praetorian didn't take a single bit of offense at the imp's rather hostile remark. Rather, it decided that now would be time to explain what had happened as Praetorian calculated that one of the potential reasons why the creature was agitated was that it wasn't sure what was going on.
The machine took note of Rin and Len explaining the situation, and was quiet while the androids explained the situation. Upon the situation being explained, Praetorian's CPU ran more calculations and decided that an explanation of its own would be a good idea, as well as asking what it was fighting just now.
"Allow me to explain."
"My allies and I were scouting out this route-"
Praetorian pointed backwards, back from the hallway from where the "research group" as designated by Praetorian had come from.
"-and upon entering this room, we spotted you in clear distress in that glass containment unit over there."
"One of my allies swiftly decided to quickly break the glass, and it evidently tripped an alarm."
Praetorian then pointed at the broken glass in the hallway that was holding back the shadow creatures.
"There were masked creatures seemingly composed of shadow at the sides of the hallway. Glass was separating us from them, but upon the alarm triggering the creatures were agitated and broke the glass before attempting to take hostile action against us. All of these creatures have been terminated, so there is no need for defensive or evasive action."
"Then, now. You regained consciousness shortly after the creatures were terminated."
The SPARK went silent for a bit, then stepped backwards as if to go check on where precisely some of its allies were going, but it froze and turned back around after one step.
"By any chance. Have you encountered creatures similar to my description, or not?"

Julian, on the other hand, was quickly logging information on what he was seeing.
"...a pyromaniac."
Julian's CPU began logging Willow as "wary". The SPARK was internally surprised that of all the people that showed up, it had to be a pyromaniac.
Julian looked at his BIT. The sarcastic AI was still not happy that it had wasted its one shot flamethrower on the crocodile from earlier, but eh, it was a little late now.
The SPARK decided to introduce itself, under the logic "might as well".
"I suppose introductions for me and my inferior counterpart are in order. I am officially designated SPARK-002, but call me Julian. The bronze looking version of me..."
Julian pointed at Praetorian.
"...is designated SPARK-001, but it also goes by Praetorian."
Julian then pointed at his Elerium Phase-Cannon, then pointed at the BIT hovering over the machine.
"I'm equipped with a giant plasma gun, armor plating, and a drone as well as lost poten-I mean Praetorian. My drone has a single shot flamethrower that very unfortunately was wasted earlier. Praetorian's drone carries a guided rocket launcher."
"Long story short, we're built for combat."
Julian internally grumbled at this. Ever since his AI had been "modified" to serve XCOM, he was forced to be helpful to anyone who could be helpful in any situation. Had it been up to the original AI, he would have simply left them behind. But noooooooo, the most Julian could do was protest whatever orders he was given.

Jerome finally let the blast free, the huge beam of red slicing towards Chara. With her slower speed and inability to dodge properly since Psycho was in the process of freezing her solid.

But....that wasn't in their parameters. Killing wasn't necessary, was it? Jerome didn't have time to decide, as the beam was already in motion and had a pretty good chance to kill.

For a moment, there is stillness. Air hanging and frozen. My paw digit remains stuck a few centimeters deep in the liquid, leaving me to stare at it like I'm silently asking 'what in Arceus' name am I doing?' And quite frankly, that is exactly what I'm thinking.

Too bad it doesn't stay that way for long.

The environment around me, Leon, Yuma, and Negan suddenly begins to fade away like a dying mirage. Large hexagonal patterns cover every surface, from the trees to the ground to even the sky. Like a machine they work, turning the landscape into some weird geometric modern art piece. Then, it all begins to fade away. Puffy white clouds and their blue backdrop dissolve into nothingness hexagon by hexagon, the jungle itself joining the simulation's quiet armageddon mere moments after. Nearing, drawing in as a stalking wolf with a tasty chunk of meat, surrounding us on all sides, the destruction comes. Darkness fills the voids where now-gone parts of the computer generated world used to be. Soon we are left with nothing but a single hexagon shaped piece of the ground that we had been standing on previously. The only other things we've got now? A pitch-black, boring sky and nowhere else to go but into the abyss below. Way to go, me.

More silence, just like before. Dumbass Typhlosion here is still sitting on his knees with his finger dipped into, uh... whatever this stuff is. The question that should've been in my mind long ago finally decides to pay a visit: what in the world compelled me to do this? Probably a hypnotic agent in the air... hm, maybe psychic waves?

My game of one-player 20 Questions gets cut off by the appearance of a hexagon piece made of reinforced, rusty metal right in front of me. Then another off to the side, then another, then another. It's the same process as before, just reversed to create an environment rather than destroy it. Slowly a whole new world comes into existence. The simulation builds a long industrial-styled hallway and a clear window to the 'outside' in front of us. Instead of lush greenery behind the glass, we're met with grey, cratered fields of dust. Colorless. Lifeless. A black, starry horizon has replaced the sky, as if this place has been locked eternally in some dead, cold night.

The trembling paw that stayed sheltered in the comfort of the puddle draws up and gently rests itself on the window. Names flood my mind; the same names that belonged to the friends I fought alongside here. All of them, minds driven to the brink of brokenness by an army of undead and the man who controlled it behind the body of a young girl. It's like I can still hear his cackles. His taunts. No... no, no, no. My eyes lower, focusing again on the puddle that had tempted me, my breaths shallow and stale, beads of sweat running down my forehead.

Tap. Tap. Tap. There's a beating of light feet against the cold metal floor off to the side, sluggish in pace. A small creature, as it sounds.

I turn my head to the source. Deep in my heart, I hope this is anything but another fight. We don’t need to risk losing more of the group this soon. Especially not here in this... this metal hell of a moon base.

My eyes fall upon the new arrival. A small animal, just as I had predicted, fox-like in stature. It gazes up at me with an innocent pleading, red eyes bagged and fearful. It drags behind it a ruined metal suit, once built to fit around its body, now reduced to nothing but a pile of scrap. The yellow rings decorating its pitch-black body are ruined by numerous red gashes that dig down deep beneath its fur and skin. Sluggishly, it parts its bleeding lips, revealing crimson-stained fangs behind them and a tongue that hangs loosely in its mouth.

“Er... ic...” it groans weakly.

That voice...

It clicks.

“William-“

A single human arm, withered finely down to the marrow, decayed and oozing, erupts from the smaller creature’s side. Another, from its other flank. It, that is, the wounded “fox,” explodes into a gory mess, spraying the walls with body fluids and bits of flesh and bone, and leaves the grotesque human body that was inside to rise from its remains. Eyes orange, glowing, limp rags that were once clothes hanging from the torso and legs. The human’s body is that of a corpse, dug up, reanimated. A zombie. It reels its head back. Something underneath the rotten skin lights up brightly as if a dozen candles were lit all at once inside of it. Then, it throws its head forward, expelling a red-hot stream of fire from its mouth. The flames, hot enough to singe if you were even close, heads directly for the fresh blood in front of the undead hunter: us.

Ritsu's hold on the shadow creature affixed it in place, tearing at the seams of its shoulders, ripping the skin and causing a blackish ooze to leak from the joints. Noel's swords cleaved into its abdomen, bullets riddling its face, chest and shoulders. By now, an ordinary human would be dead. But this... thing was persistent. Its face continued to betray no feelings, no pain or joy, it just began to squirm and thrash. A relentless, undying conviction to its cause.
Then, it happened. Ritsu's mechanical arms began to vibrate. The joints loosened, and snapped. With a loud 'bang', all of the projectiles that were embedded in the faker became free of the shadowy meat-sack and came careening towards their senders at twice their original velocity. When the smoke cleared, the creature descended, touching down with a cocky grace. Though it showed no emotion, remnants of the original Joker were quite clear in the way it moved, dashed and slashed. What was more concerning, however, was the thing that stood behind it.
Crimson winds made loops around the deck. An object began to crystalize from particles of red like frozen strawberry. It wouldn't take long for Ritsu to pick up on the sudden swell of energy that the shadow was exerting in its summoning process. Then, it crashed, the power levels subsiding with a commanding hush.

What stood before Noel, Ritsu and Soma was a creature, too eldritch to describe. Its figure was thin yet robust, black yet white, with gold-rimmed horse hooves for feet and red-tipped dreadlocks for hair. Its eyes - or the closest thing that you could discern as its eyes - formed a mono-optic slit atop the bridge of its beak-like nose. It held no blade - what it held was a large pair of pincers that clamped tight on a steaming mass of metal that made even the plating of the deck begin to melt. As the shadow prepared to counterattack, the enormous Persona allowed its weapon to float out of grasp, commanding it with simple hand gestures. So when the sword began to spin like the blades of a helicopter, the time to duck was nigh. A 7-foot-wide beam of fire suddenly erupted from the twirling chunk of super-heated titanium, tearing through the floorboards of the ship and pursuing Soma with a slow yet unfaltering precision.

Soma thought it was over. The Playstation on wheel's hold and pressure was sure enough to kill it, but it persisted to the point of being able to get himself free. But not only that, the bullets that got stuck into it's body suddenly flew back to it's shooters and worse, the phantom summoned a familiar that is too eldritch to describe (and I thought it was Arsene or Satanael, which WOULD have made this boss fight much harder). It spins it's blade a rapid pace and a slow-moving beam of flames came out from it, heading towards Soma. He is at an disadvantage. His spears will never get through this intense heat. He decides to make a run for it, but not before he picks up the unconscious detective, carry him against his back, and starts to run for the bridge.

Neferu

Neferu was sad, her Khepri Sun* did not connect with the woman on the statue but, she did manage to get a cut from the blonde-haired woman. Now, the woman hid behind the statue and she seems to be grabbing Neferu by her neck through the use of an invisible force. 'How shocking, this girl's got some talent.', she thought as she proceeded to laugh in front of the woman.

"You're so full of surprises, but...,"

The light proceeded to glow a darker red and blind Shiki for a moment, Neferu's body became hollow and her skeleton got out of her body. She teleported somewhere near Shirou's body through the pooled blood on the floor. Hands proceeded to grab the feet of Shirou as he seemed to be drowning in it. She proceeded to finish her sentence,

"I believe that you're not making Mother happy."

A hand smashes through the stained glass on the ceiling and a large shriek rings throughout the cathedral. A bell starts to ring as she grabs Shiki and crushes her in her hand. She throws her to the ground, and proceeds to slam her fist unto her body. Neferu laughs harder as she goes back to the pool of blood, dissolving into it. Mother's hand proceeds to go away as another red light appear on top of Saber.

Neferu proceeded to gather all the blood and spin, as she holds her staff high in the air and gather blood. She was prideful of what she had done. She let the blood gather on top of her as a large ball, this wasn't even her final form. It was just the start of what she was going to become.

You snarl back at the blocky dude, basically a big fat ‘NO’, before growling back at the charging beast.

“SHUT UP, I PROMISED MYSELF I WOULD DO THIS, JUST KEEP FIRING AT IT!! ILL STILL DISTRACT IT!!”

You had every intention of fighting it wether it hurt you or not.. there was nothing it could do to really kill a demon... all it could do was temporarily hurt you, it had no methods of hurting any demon with a basic use of magic!! Frankly.. you’ve been running away from every fight in fear of getting hurt.. pretty silly when you consider THAT... but this time, you were GOING to fight back. So, you do ANOTHER stupid action. Damn these are just adding up today. You charge back, leaning your head down so your horns are pointing straight at the being. As soon as you're close enough, you raise your head up to jab the being in hopefully the neck, and brace yourself for whatever damage it was going to do to you. If anything, if you could just keep it focused on attacking you, that would be fine enough. The other two could then easily land as many hits as they needed.

Those of you who investigated the notes sprawled throughout the desk would find some semblance of luck, at least. All of them had crude drawings of the shadow beasts on them, as well as plenty other deviant images. One of which seemed to be a very tall man who appeared to be wearing a... chameleon mask? Strange. Either way, the notes didn't reveal any particularly new information, although they did let you all know that this hadn't been going on just since you arrived.

"Yeah... I don't really know anything about a 'Copper Pot' or a 'Tesseract'. But the creatures you're talking about sound an awful lot like Shadow Beasts..." Midna said as she tapped a single finger against her chin in thought. She turned to the other kid who had apparently been freed from the cage, before looking back at the group as a whole. "As for my name... my name is Midna." She explained. "I was once the proud princess of the Twilight Realm and... well, I was turned into this... creature." She said as she glanced down at her body, which had certainly seen better days in terms of height and shape and... everything. Shrugging, she continued. "As for how I got like this... I can't say I remember. But I intend to find out. Which is why I suppose I'll have to follow you idiots around for now." She said as she placed her hands on her hips once more and leaned forward.

"After all, you guys said that you were searching for a... Tesseract, was it? And if this Cobblepot person had me locked up here, it must have been for a reason, hmm? So all in all, it sounds to me like I'm your best bet at finding whatever it is you want."
