Ratatoskr's Underground Facility:
Chatting of three people and their noisy footsteps with Elliot's wheelchair squeaking are filling up the dead air of the underground facility. All around them, multiple piled up mutilated corpses of both humans and demons are scattered all over the area making the scene to appear just like a horror slasher movie.
"We need to get out of here as quickly as possible. We need to join the others to gain more firepower." Kotori said. She couldn't get rid the sinking feeling of what is happening in the world.
"But how? There could be millions of those things out there." Shido commented.
"Don't need to worry, I already sent an invisible scouting drone before we took Kotori in here, it will only just take a minute for the drone to detect the other spirits in this abyss." Karen said as she took a quick look at the monitor on her left arm.
"And if we detected them, how can we get to them?" Shido scratch the back of his head.
Suddenly, Karen's arm monitor starts to beep and she take a look at it again.
"Looks like the street is empty. Unfortunately, the creatures can possibly ambush us all over the corner so we must always keep our guard up when we travel along the city by foot." Karen answered.
"If we travel on foot, it increased the chances of us getting killed." Elliot sighed. "Come you two, follow me and Karen."
"Where are you gonna take us?" Kotori questioned as she raised her eyebrows.
"Just follow me and you'll find out." Elliot smiled.
The siblings look at each other, curious of what Elliot is going to show them. Not hesitating, both of them followed Elliot and Karen to who knows where.
Tengu City:
"GRRRAAAHHH!!! ...Hah! ...Hah! " A blonde girl wearing a lilac and white Astral dress that resembles a Qipao fell on her knees and panting heavily.
She has many wounds and scar on her body from fighting the creatures that's surrounding her and her companion. However, she still regain her beautiful appearance especially her long blonde hair that is styled in an Odango. Her weapon of choice is a key blade that is capable of stopping the earth from spinning, and it can create portals that could summoned devastating projectiles that comes from outer space. Also, it can transform into a javelin like weapon to increase its destructive power. The name of her weapon is Michael, named after the arch angel who defeated his brother lucifer.
"Mukuro! ...Hah... We need to hold our ground!" A girl with short ash gray hair exclaimed.
This girl wears a spirit armor or astral dress that resembles a nun. Her dress is an ink-colored semi-transparent fabric that completely displays her figure. Her weapon of choice is a book, but it is not just a normal book. The power of this book can tell your future and can summon clones of girls that can help you fight multiple enemies.
"There's too many of them Nia!" Mukuro cried out as she quickly stood up and summon a portal in front of her and send her the creature that was about to pounce her into outer space.
"Huh?! No!" Her body trembles when she realized her Astral dress is disappearing slowly.
"N-Nia, I'm losing my powers!" She exclaimed.
Nia responded by opening up her book and yelled out. "MARIA!"
Suddenly, the book summoned five girls similar to the Nibelcoles.
"Maria, protect Mukuro at all cost!" Nia ordered the girls.
The girls nodded in respond and they all swiftly surrounded Mukuro who is now both on her knees and nearly losing consciousness.
"Shido? Girls? Where are you?"
Nia can't do anything but to hope and pray for some miracle to save them. When all the demons are about to attack them, the attack got halted after they got impaled by a shadow underneath them like a kebab.
Nia and the five Marias got ready when multiple creepy laughter filled the air and the atmosphere got heavy. Suddenly, a shadowy portal appeared before them and one girl wearing a dark and crimson dress steps out.
"K-Kurumi?" Nia said in shock. "I never thought that you would survive the end of the world?"
Kurumi chuckled and said. "It's not the end as long as we are still breathing Nia-san."
"Did you came here to save us?" Nia asked with smirked. "I never thought the worst spirit would have such a soft heart?"
Kurumi giggled and replied. "I have millions of reasons to come here Nia-san. If I didn't, both you and Mukuro will be laying here all bloods and guts."
*ROARING!!! *
*BOOM!!! *
The three spirits and the five MARIAS gasped when an armored creature with multiple faces and arms landed right infront of them. Each arms wielded blood covered katanas and spears, the blood still look fresh.
"I never seen this one before." Kurumi commented.
"It looks like one of those samurais!" Nia added as she ready herself.
Mukuro limped towards Kurumi and Nia, she already transformed her key blade into its javelin form and her Astral dress changed color into blood red. However, her Astral dress is slowly fading turning into light particles.
"I still have something left inside of me." Mukuro said weakly.
The creature roared in anger and threw a flaming energy blade towards the three spirits. The five MARIAS teleported besides them and formed a defensive barrier, blocking the attack.
After the MARIAS brought down their barrier, Kurumi immediately does an attack of her own. Her signature giant clock appeared behind her and she used her flintlock pistol and rifle as a clock hands.
"Zaphkiel! Zayin!"
Number four glowed a crimson red before a red mist like shadow flew inside the barrel of Kurumi's pistol. She fired three shots at the creature. The creature dodged the first and second bullet, but it blocked the third bullet with its sword making itself froze in time.
With a war cry, Mukuro delivered an attack of her own too. She didn't waste any chances to strike down the unmoving creature. But sadly, the effect of Kurumi's 4th bullet immediately wears off and the creature blocked Mukuro's attack. Using her flexibility, Mukuro open up five portals over them and one portal behind her to teleport her back to Kurumi and Nia.
With the five summoned portal hovering over the creature, multiple meteor strike came out and struck down hard on the hulking abomination. The Demon tried to fight off the incoming projectiles by slashing and blocking until it got overpowered and got buried underneath those scorching rocks from outer space.
*ROAR!!! *
All of the meteors got hurled towards the spirits which all the MARIAS quickly blocked it by putting up the barrier again, but only to get shattered from the impact. The creature though, absorbed the energy and heat from the meteors making its weapons burst into flames.
The Demon threw its spears towards the spirits, which the spirits all dodged it barely. Upon colliding with the building wall, it exploded like a missile before returning back to its master.
"Everyone we need to get out of here, or else we gonna end up getting buried alive!" Nia yelled out.
Mukuro summoned a portal, making her, Kurumi, and Nia disappeared without leaving any trace. The Demon growled as it looks around the area of where its prey was standing. As the building crumbles before the demon, the creature let out an earth shattering roar that could chill the spines of other demons. After a fit of rage, the demon squatted down before thrusting itself to heaven ward.
Ratatoskr's Underground Flight Facility:
"This is amazing!" Shido yelled out with wide eyes.
"This is where they made fraxinus! Look at all this prototypes! " Kotori commented. She may be the commander of ratatoskr, however she has limited access to one of the facilities here including the area she is standing right now.
"We are going to use of these prototypes. They may be incomplete, but they are the ones we got." Elliot said to them.
"Karen go and prepare TN-85, we must head out to the city and pick up the others ASAP." Elliot ordered which Karen responded by nodding and she walk towards the ship with the same size of fraxinus.
However, this ship lacks offensive capabilites but it can withstand a powerful assault from an inverse spirit. Also, its speed thrusters, sensors, and scouting capabilites are more advance than those of fraxinus.
After Karen activated the ship, the behemoth made a roaring sound syncing with its fighter jet like noise.
Then Karen's voice echoed through the external speaker of the ship. "Ship activated and we are ready to launch!"
"Alright people, let's move out!" Elliot yelled out.
DEM's Laboratory:
"Mr. Westcott!" One of DEM's scientist cried out. "Take a look of this!"
Wescott stand beside the scientist and both of them look at the dark long spear that was inside the portal.
"It couldn't be!" Westcott stated inside his mind while trying his best to hide his shock impression.
"This spear... This spear is the weapon of the first Demon king. Legend told that his spear cut through time and space and it divided light and day." Westcott explained with awe in his voice.
"That's not the only one my team found Mr. Westcott." The scientist then pressed a button on his computer and portal transition to another artifact.
Westcott eyes widened and he smiled mischievously at the crown in front of him.
"Perfect..."
