"Hold up, Zenta's...blind?!" Avalon said, shocked. "But... he moves so fluently and he's able to identify things around him. How... how can he be blind?" Avalon turned to Berserk and lifted his brown, almost as if asking if she knew anything about this. He then turned back to face the city. "Well, he's Cuki's master for a reason... Still, I think even blind people aren't this... accurate."

There was a small moment of pause from Avalon as he appeared deep in thought, particularly about gaining the knowledge about Zenta's blindness. He didn't seem to understand it but it was as if was familiar with Zenta despite never once seeing him, even in their own universe. That's weird... Why do I feel like I should know Zenta? Huh, a warrior as strong as him has to have a ton of stories. Maybe Pops wrote somethin' about him in the scroll..? I'll have to check later.

Shaking his head free of the mental thought, Avalon turned his head to Bage and Bernkastel on his second bird.

"That bird will easily obey your command, so no need to worry how to steer it," The paper eagle stared down at Bernkastel and lowered itself so the Witch can climb easier. "But it does fly pretty fast, so I hope you don't mind bugs in your teeth." The ninja then turned to Lucifer as his own paper hawk lowered itself for the child. "As for you, you're coming with me and Berserk. You take the front seat. Chop-chop Lucifer, we ain't got all day! Zenta and the others can't stall Roya forever."

(I'll let Loopy/Panich control the bird to their liking.)





Zenta, throughout the fiasco of Roya's taunts and attacks, managed to deflect the energy spears she used earlier on them by rapidly spinning his energy staff around in an elegant display of wisps. He sharply inhaled a breath of air through his nose and softly exhaled from his mouth, pacing his breath as he watched the others handle Roya. One thing lead to another and Gogeta still managed to find a way to mess up Spina's attack. Even though he was not part of the ordeal, he grew annoyed at Gogeta's continuous attempts to sabotage Spina. To the point where it got Spina hurt by Roya's attack.

This is getting out of hand..! Roya will continue to take advantage of the situation..!

With swift movements, the beast rushed up to the two fighting Saiyans and grabbed a wrist from each of them. Pulling both wrists towards each other, both Saiyans slammed their heads against each other repeatedly thanks to Zenta continuing the process to smack some sense into the two. However, once he stopped, he pulled on Gogeta's gi and bring him closer to his face. The Fusion's eyes reflected from the Beast's visor as Zenta formed a scowl. His voice was low, almost in an animalistic growl, something new to the two Saiyans.

"If you two have no devotion to ending this fight, allow me to handle Roya," Zenta pushed Gogeta back and held his staff in between the two Saiyans, each end of the pole touching Gogeta and Spina's chest. "Begone!" The pole extended from both sides, pushing Gogeta and Spina away from each other. The pole continued to grow, crashing the two men through buildings and rubble as Zenta tried to keep the two away from each other and Roya's dream-eating attacks, at least for a little while. I do not want to hurt you two, but you left me no choice...

Once the two were far enough from each other, Zenta pulled his energy staff back to normal size and lifted his ears upon hearing Roya's taunt. He gazed at Roya's energy and noticed much of it came from her forehead. As he remembered the incident from a few days ago, he wondered why it did not affect him. If this was the source of the torment from the Breakers, Zenta knew he had to attack it.

"I am here, Roya," Zenta called out. "Meal ticket? Very well, it is not the first time someone has tasted my flesh." He smirked darkly. "Being at a disadvantage... brings out the best in us, don't you think..?"

Zenta grinned as he rushed towards Roya, his staff going directly to her horn in an attempt to stop her from using her attack again.
 
A clawed hand came right for Roya. 

The creature is undead blindfolded and has claws for hands. Oddly despite being blind is facing right at Roya.

Cross thinks "I wonder how she will deal with this version of a low level reverent(Cross' standers). It will not over shadow the others and it will not make some compacted problems if I were to use a zombie of a current war criminal."
 
Allure City

“Well, Lilith. I’ll shall return. Do try to make sure those Xy’phers don’t appear while we’re gone.” Lucifer asked Lilith. “I have a feeling that destroying those three people earlier might’ve tipped them off since they were intending on capturing the Breakers.” 

“Noted. I’ll keep a look out for enemies.” Lilith said. “Do be careful, sir.”

“Rest assure, I’ll be fine. If anything happens to me, all faults will be on Avalon.” Lucifer smiles as he hopped on the bird. However, he sat in between Avalon and Berserk as opposed on sitting on the front, instantly defying the order. In case they were to get shot down by any means, at least he can push Avalon in the way as a shield to make their safe retreat to the ground. “Now, it’s time for some mayhem.” 

Reality Metropolis

Spina narrowed his eyes when he was pushed away by Zenta’s rod, slamming into the building.

“Can’t you guys quit fighting among yourselves? I didn’t do all of this just so you can get into squabbles!” Roya was slightly annoyed that Zenta appeared and separate the two, which, secretly thought it was hilarious. “Spina’s crew is interesting, and especially chaotic. Must livelier than the one he had before. They were just so boring in comparison.” 

Seeing the beast man responded to her comment, the horned warrior smirk. “Heh. You give off a different feel compared to the rest I have seen. I wonder how your dreams taste like…” Roya’s face turned slightly red since she was still remembering the taste of Gogeta, Spina and Spawn. “They were so delicious. Spina’s dreams were always my favorite… but those two have excellent ones as well. Will yours be the same quality?!”

Roya’s horn turned bright once again. “Don’t blink! Devour!” A powerful bright light erupted from her horn as Zenta dashed forward to consume his dreams. But. It did not affect him. “Huh…?!” She stumbled back a bit before grab by clawed hand. She turned her head slightly to see the creature before turning back to Zenta, mere inches away from her face. She did her best to move her head slightly to the right to avoid the staff—it managed to connect to her right side of her face, being flung towards the ground hard.

Grabbing her face, it stung due to the repeated blows dealt to her face by Gogeta and Zenta, while being in utter confusion of what Zenta was not affected by her horn’s powers. After a moment of silence, she lowered her brows and stare at the beast warrior upon the realization. “You’re blind. Aren’t you?” She griped her club hard and her tone became slightly angry. “No wonder you went after me when the others fell. The annoying type.”
 
The reverent keeps going after Roya in the same way but every time it falls it seems to get faster and even more forceful.

Cross thinks "If Coins work like souls than I can force a pest like Roya to be useful."
 
Gogeta grimaced in being slammed into Spina repeatedly, yet his tired baggy eyes opened with extensive rage fueled vigor. His entire stare remained forward, as if he stared through Zenta and ignored the man during his proclamation in his attention locked only on Spina. He hacked out in pain in being forced back towards the ground away from his target, crashing into the ground. However, he quickly rose back up to his feet and slapped the pole away. A viscous surge of pink fire erupted outward, Gogeta launching forward instantly once again to close the gap to Spina where he laid in the building.

His right foot launched forward, kicking away the rubble in a force of telekinetic power that blasted the rubble of the building away around Spina. Yet in his motions, Gogeta flew forward and loomed over Spina where he lay, his cocked fists sailing forth in another attempt to pummel the other Saiyan in a devastating offensive barrage.
 
"Why you little..." Avalon grumbled under his breath at Lucifer's defiance before ignoring it. "Fine, whatever, just hold on."

Avalon tugged on the feathers of the hawk as it instantly opened its majestic wings and flapped them, suspending itself in the air. Once in the air, Avalon pointed towards the city, the avian following his hand and letting out a screech before flying at rapid speeds towards the city, creating a gust of wind behind it.



I cannot hold back anymore, I have to end this now...

"Ah, it seems that your ability works on those with sight," Zenta said to himself. "Next to an opponent like me, your ability is quite useless, yes? Well, luckily, my ability is not so easy to counter." The beast began to glow a shining white as his aura radiated stronger and stronger around him. The ground below him instantly shattered and he hovered slightly due to the amount of energy released from him. "You have gotten considerably stronger the last time we met..."

As Roya gripped her club, Zenta's rod shrunk and condensed itself into a highly compressed ball of white translucent energy. It was so tightly packed that it vibrated on top of Zenta's palm.

"That is a mistake I will exploit..."

With lightning speed, the beast approached Roya and kicked the club to the side so that he slammed his palm and the compressed energy on her chest. The energy sphere slipped inside her body, giving her a boost in power! A powerful aura released from the woman as energy coursed within her. However, the more Roya moved, the heavier her body became until she was entirely immobilized. The overabundance of energy was too much for Roya's body to handle. Her blood felt like needles as her entire body became numb. It was temporary and Zenta knew he had to work fast. Taking advantage of the situation, Zenta bent his knees before pointing his palms at Roya. A Hanzi symbol began to burn on Roya's chest, almost as if it came from inside her. A ring formed around her waist but did nothing yet.

"Hidden Palm, The Ring of Bàozhà..." The beast said under his breath as he instantly vanished from sight.

Roya felt more alive with the energy coursing through her body. Was Zenta's move a mistake? Why did he end up powering up Roya even more? Whatever Zenta was planning, he made his first move. The furry man launched a palm directly towards Roya's stomach, his energy rushing out from behind the woman. Next, it was followed by an elegant display of him jabbing her pressure point, again, with more energy coming out from behind the woman. The more Zenta continued to attack her, the more energy Roya received. Yet, all around the two were thousands of tiny orbs of energy all around them.

"Hidden Palm, Aura of Containment!"

With one powerful hit to her abdomen, Roya's body erupted in a blue aura so powerful that it generated sparks of electricity and lightning all around it. All the vitality Zenta pumped inside Roya's body began to feel like electricity and fire. It was like Roya's energy and his were having a war inside her body. The blue energy was violent and completely overwhelmed Roya as Zenta slammed his palm on her chin to fling her high into the air. He held out an open hand to Roya.

"Ring of Bàozhà, open!"

The ring around Roya's waist began to spin around quickly and opened itself. All the energy orbs surrounding the two instantly rushed towards Roya, powering her up even more, yet, the more she powered up, the more her body suffered internally. More and more orbs started to appear from various places, even from Gogeta and Spina, each one rushing to Roya faster and faster until she was completely consumed by the orbs. Finally, Zenta's open hand clenched shut and all the energy surrounding Roya inside and out, violently exploded. The explosion was so much that it created a shockwave destroying any buildings in its wake. The entire area erupted in a rush of flame and eventually, even the rubble and debris were incinerated into nothing. In one fell swoop, the entire area they were fighting in was destroyed by what looked like a nuke. Gogeta and Spina would be blown back by the massive explosion, crashing through debris. The shockwave was powerful enough to even reach Allure City.

Zenta dropped to his knees, the move taking a massive toll on his already weakened body. He was inside a crater several meters deep, the epicenter of the explosion.

That took too much out of me... Detective Goku will not be pleased...



As Avalon flew in the air with his paper hawk, the shockwave from Zenta's attack momentarily stunned the avian. Avalon gasped as he regained control of his bird and stared at the massive fire mushroom cloud forming above Reality Metropolis. His bird screeched in a panicked frenzy as the ninja tried to calm it down, keeping it on course. He turned his head to Lucifer and Berserk, checking to see if the turbulence did not affect them.

"Everyone okay back there?!" He shouted. "Looks like Metropolis was hit by a nuke or something! Were those the bombs you were mentioning before, Berserk?! How strong are they?!"



Bernkastel and Bage would feel a mighty gust of wind from the massive shockwave emitted from Metropolis. It was weaker by the time it got to them but it was still capable of knocking one off their feet. The paper eagle turned its head to the city and let out a call, its eyes focused on the smoke that came from that direction.
 
Bage shielded his eyes as the first bird took off into the sky at a blistering speed, He looked to Brachi and Bara making sure they climbed aboard the birds back with he and Bernkastel. 

"Follow the others! And not too fast, we're gonna let them start the diversion off first!" Bage gave the hawk a command, watching its wings spread and flap repeatedly until they were up into the sky. It moved a bit slower than the other, but still kept a steady pace. "[font=Tahoma, Verdana, Arial, sans-serif]Alright, the rest of us will be hanging back until it's time to jump in. Hope you all are ready, cause its gonna be tough." [/font]Despite his fatigue, Bage felt confident in the others to execute the plan. He smiled to himself and saw this cooperation as a small flicker of hope that the Breakers could still be the formidable team that their reputation started as.
 
Brachi and Bara both nodded as they had climbed on board as well, ready to start.

"I only hope we can make this work..." Bara said.

"I'm sure we can make it, Bara," Brachi said, "I hope that the others can be just as competent as our other friends from our universe always had been for once."
 
“Right away, sir!” Lucifer said, but it was confusing if it was genuine or plain sarcasm. 

Reality Metropolis

Spawn pulled himself up from the ground as the excess dirt rolled down his body. Placing his head over his face, every time he attempted to close his eyes, he would experience visions, unpleasant ones, that keep him up right away. “Shit… what did that bastard do to me…? Questions for later…”  He turned around and see that the entire area they were standing on was reduced to mere dusts. “…What the hell…"

Seeing the absolute destruction before his very own eyes, Spawn saw the gigantic crater that was pulsing with smoke. “Goddamnit, don’t tell me don’t fucking idiots ended up destroying everything.” Initially thought it was Spina and Gogeta since they saw them briefly fighting with each other but spotted Zenta instead. “… Great. Just great. I said that I didn’t want those motherfuckers around me, and this is what happens. Damn people don’t know their own limitations for these things.” He looked around, unable to detect Roya’s life energy. “Whatever he did, I can’t sense her anymore, so I guess that’s something.”

“That’s something…? Hehehe… Don’t count me out just yet.” 

=====

Spina opened his eyes, realizing that he couldn’t feel the sensation of “sleep”. Recalling being flung into a building by Zenta, and Gogeta attacking him soon after, he looked around at the area engulfed with flames. “Did Zenta do this…?” He looked around and see Gogeta on the other side. “Damn you…!” He utters malice underneath his breath. “You idiot… why can’t you just stay put for one second.” Spina tried to get up to get in the first, sensing Zenta’s energy (and Roya's energy) dropping like crazy. However, he was unable to move. He looked at his torso, revealing a pipe, piercing through his lower right torso. “S-shit…!” He cough, spitting out blood.

=====

Spawn narrowed his eyes, looking at the other side of the crater, paralleling to where he stood, seeing Roya emerged from the smoke. She was significantly damage: her armor was flat out destroyed, leaving nothing more than think clothing that had significant burns. Her body was battered with burns and bruises, as Roya limped towards the edge of the crater. She lifted her head, missing few teeth as her right eye was shut from damage. Bloody face and all, Roya smile as her club returned to her in kind—completely unfazed by Zenta’s blast.

“That hurt… that fucking hurts so much.” Roya commented. Her reddish hair had returned to her natural hair color: blue. She spat to the side once more again, losing even more teeth in the process. “You almost had me… but not quite.” She tried to lift her right arm, but due to the pure destruction of Zenta’s blast, she had to use her club to point her horn. “As long I still have this, it’ll protect me.” She coughed, letting out black smoke as blood dripped out from her mouth. “Normally, I would just leave… since I don’t want to get caught up in the horde.”

Spawn raised a brow upon her mentioning such. “Huh? Horde? What are you talkin—”

“But what you just did… now I’m about to act up.” Roya’s left eye narrowed as she raised her club. She looked at the crater with face filled with disgust. “You damn beast. I’m just gonna smash you. Repeatedly. Until I get the anger out of my system.”

Spawn pulled out a giant green blade out of his cloak and took an offensive position. Breathing heavily due to his dreams being consumed, his stamina was dropping rapidly. “I don’t have enough energy to make a difference…”

“Extend…” Roya shouted as her club grew dramatically until it reaches the clouds. “I’ll squash you like a damn bug, you furry bastard!”
 
The revenant claw found its mark Roya. Roya starts to bleed form her wounds worst than normal.
