The Reality Vortex: Red Reputations

Bage gave a determined face at May and Spawn's instruction and followed behind. Quickly he charged the beast of a Saiyan, dodging the flurry of blasts skillfully. He cut through the bright attack and delivered an explosive punch to the Xy'pher's jaw. The Saiyan detective continued to bombard Broly with furiously heavy jabs to the upper body.

"It can't come soon enough, apparently. Because I'm hearing a lot of talk but no action!" Bage taunted, taking a page from Berserk's book before smashing his head against the crystalized skull.
 
"I never woulda guessed they can't sense us at all! Looks like we're turning the tables so good job! And they say tricks ain't good for anything," Berserk boasted, in high spirits from Avalon's clone diversion working to their advantage. "Sneak up on him? Sure. With all this smoke I can't use my explosives yet... I could go in and give him a good zap?"

===

Bernkastel's expression relaxed as she let out a little sigh of relief. However, that was short-lived when Zenta and Nia gave a warning that something was coming. The witch narrowed her eyes as she glanced around trying to locate the source of the strange weight bearing down on them.

"This pressure...! Do you think it's...?" she trailed off hearing the name Gravita over and over, sweat beading down her cheek in anticipation. "Stay still; maybe it can't see us in the smoke either." she advised her group. No matter what, I have to maintain focus! I can't afford to get caught off guard if it's the Dark Xy'pher.
 
The Hive Arena

With a mighty roar, Broly, in order to turn the tides of battle to his favor, resorted to his transformation. As more memories started to pour in, Broly recalled his thirst for battle even more, and his Saiyan instincts unlocked more his power. His crystal hair started to grow in length, reaching similar to that of a Super Saiyan 3, but kept his eyebrows.

Before completing his transformation, Broly’s eyes widened when Bage appeared before him, and his head whipped back in response to the Detective’s powerful punch. As fragments broke away from his jaw, Broly slid back until he came to a stop. Trying to form words, but unable too due to the damage jaw, he rushed forward to Bage to engage in close combat. He dodged Bage’s first punch and countered by punching in the stomach. But it was ineffective. As if Bage was made of pure chromium, Broly got bombarded by the series of blows. No matter what Broly did, whether attacking or parrying his punches, Bage was like an immovable object.

The Xy’pher Saiyan let out a distorted roar as green energy form in his right palm and smash it against Bage’s chest. Once again, it did nothing, and Broly was slammed headfirst to the ground.

Gripping the ground hard, Broly opened his broken jaw, in attempt to blindside the detective with a mouth beam. Only for Detective Spawn to kick his bead upward as the beam fired towards the ceiling.

“Nice try,” Detective Spawn charged forward, tackling the Xy’pher back to provide enough distance. Placing both his hands together, greenish slime dripped out of it as his cloak opened up. “My soul burns… the victims call for your destruction! Fatal Phantasm!” An enormous number of souls flung out from his cloak like a tsunami and crashing onto Broly.

“Arghh!!!” Broly tried swinging around, but it was futile. The souls were attacking from all directions; and his injuries was starting to take toll on him. “I… won’t…be taken down by trash!!!!” He forced his hands in the air as a large ball of black and green energy form in the center. It then compressed into a shape of spear. “Dark Blast Stinger!!!”” Broly shouted, grabbing the tail end of it, and launching forward. Since Broly was unable to see clearly, the spear had no fixed direction; hitting anything that was nearby: Berserk and Avalon in specific.
 
Bage used his hands to dust off the debris from Broly's attack, which seemed to have barely scratched him. It was relieved to know that Broly had gotten significantly weaker than at the beginning of the battle. The Xy'pher captain would be down in no time at all, they just had to hold out a little bit longer for Cayde to take his shot. As Bage rushed forward again, he narrowly avoided the stray energy spear as it was shot out, he looked back sensing Avalon and Berserk in the smoke in a direct path with the spear. He lifted his arm, quickly shooting out a few energy blasts of his own. One of them flew toward the two Breakers quickly, stopping directly in front of them and spreading to create a pink wall of energy. the next moment, the spear clashed against the wall and at first was met with resistance. But as quickly as the spear appeared, it soon dissolved into the wall right in front of Avalon and Berserk's eyes. There was a slight hesitation before the arrow appeared new! and This time pink.

Two more disks of pink transparent energy had been stationed in the air seemingly at random. But with a flick of his wrist, the initial barrier shot the pink arrow out and toward the other ki disk, the second catching and absorbing the energy the same as the first. Then shot it toward the third just as quickly. Then the final disk hesitated, shaking with momentum before being shot back toward Xy'pher Broly, and taking out the arm that had initially released it.
 
The Hive Arena

Lucifer peered his eyebrows, seeing the Xy'phers shouting at the name of someone coming. "You ought to finish this, Breakers." He said, waving a little flag with the words "Go Breakers" embedded on it. "A dangerous foe is about to make their entrance."

As the spear of black and green shattered, then dissolved within Bage’s energy wall, Broly grunted in annoyance. Once the pink energized arrow appears, the Xy’pher’s eyes widened when it shot forward quickly, although it did have strange movements upon reaching him.

Unable to react properly, the Xy’pher turned to the side to see his right arm completely tore off from his body. The arm now lay waste against the ground, Broly turned to the Detectives and the other Breakers in battle. “I won’t stand for this…” His voice still clearly inaudible. The smoke clears away a bit, allowing Broly to scan the area a bit more; there, he spotted something that could prove to be his advantage. He smirks like a monster, accompanied by a small cackle.

Once again, Broly let out a roar. A powerful scream that echoes that very essence of what this Berserker Saiyan is truly about: a warrior that craves destruction. Rather than attempting to transform, since it’ll be interrupted, he inside poured his power so much that that environment around them once again change from a more, darker, greyish color. Arched forward, Xy’pher Broly dashed forward so fast like a bullet train, heading towards Zenta, Bara, Bernkastel and Spina within seconds. Using his left hand, filled to the brim with energy, he intended to engulf the group—Bernkastel being the first target--pouring out such a high enough power, with the intention to completely obliterate them. “Hanging back just to avoid a fight, huh?! Eraser Cannon…!!!”
 
May thinks as she moves in a better position to support the people fighting Broly "that a good sine we have him on the ropes. Sadly, grenades would do friendly fire, or I might have used some." May starts shooting Broly in a way to harm his aim.

May says flatly "Someone finish Broly." May thinks "Lest hope that his support dos not show up before we deal with him."
 
Majin Bara however clocked Broly's approach and saw his attempt on charging energy. In response she inhaled deeply, her chest even inflating to a degree, before emitting a fierce Angry Shout at the incoming attack, wanting to buy time for any of the others to either respond properly, or to let some debris fall in the way of the attack to intercept it, but was ready to act herself in kind, her back liquefying a little in preparation for a desparation move which was similar to Majin Buu.
 
The Hive Arena

The intense scorching heat that resonated around Cayde mounted outwards; even smoke left in the wake of the explosions dispersing and vaporizing upon contact. The stone like structure of the android's stance had only one flaw: his mechanical pupils shaking while still tracking Broly throughout the onslaught of the others' intense attacks. A golden fire swirled around Cayde like an aura, the flowing particles and slow moving flames nearly identical to the glow of Ultra Instinct aside from the color.

Cayde's eyes continued to shake as he slowly inhaled deeply through his nose, the golden energy flowing into his nostrils. The intense fire suddenly pulled upwards while the android expelled out the deep breath through his mouth, the entirety of the flames compressing into the outstretched gun. The trigger finger pulled finally, the metal hammer on the gun slamming down.

The flash of fire erupted outward, rocks and debris kicking up briefly in its wake in the ominous explosion of sound multiplied to lengths greater than could normally be registered by the ear and sight. Cayde's arms flung backwards before the flash of fire could engulf him, but the entire area around where he stood went completely black from the explosive force behind the fired shot; sound and sight completely dwarfed in the wake of the gunshot. From the void left in the wake of the shot, however, a single golden bullet shot forward at the ensuring battle. The energy behind the attack was unmistakable; the burning fire swirling around the metal bullet empowering it beyond a normal projectile. Whether it was debris fall around from the ensuring combat or even an attempt to knock the projectile off target, the bullet responded as if it had a mind of its own. Weaving through the rocks and debris falling downwards, the golden bullet sailed through the air and held only one target in its travel: the berserker Xy'pher Saiyan locked in fierce combat.


Snowy Mountains of Rogue City

Vegetto kept his eyes narrowed as the two Kryptonians spoke, his eyes diverting towards once Clark vouched for him. He stood still, his arms at his side once Vortex Man mentioned a similar path he walked just like Clark did. The Potara fusion lifted his head a bit, looking over the new arrival and thinking to himself about the immense change. Perhaps had Vegetto been more active during the Hart saga, he wondered if he could've stopped the ensuring hatred that had built up in the Kryptonian. The man had developed into an exceptional warrior, as he initially thought would be better for the world, but at the cost at recognizing Gogeta as anything other than a threat.

Vegetto turned his eyes down, thinking on the responsibility behind letting his counterpart run rampant without real guidance. He opened his mouth for a moment to say something to Vortex Man, but soon shut it once more in deciding the breath would be wasted. He paused briefly, his eyes turning to the side and speaking on the advice to go check on the other Breakers.

"Right."

His eyes widened at the deafening roar of a gunshot that shook the mountainside; a blast of wind rolling through that ruffled the three's clothing. Vegetto blinked, rapidly turning his head to the brief surge in pressure that occurred. The Potara fusion swallowed hard, speaking mostly to himself in a near fear stricken tone in his dual voice.

"The Golden Gun..."

Vegetto quickly raised two fingers to his forehead, nodding down to Clark.

"Cayde's in trouble...you two better come help when you're recovered, Clark. And don't you dare go missing on me!"

The Potara fusion didn't wait for a reply, disappearing into thin air with a loud "fzzt" and leaving the two Kryptonians alone on whatever was left of the mountainside.
 
"A good zap sounds great!" Avalon nodded to Berserk. "With my water and your electricity, we can amp up the damage."

Avalon spin his scroll before jumping out of the smoke, careful to dodge any of Broly's attacks, yet, he seemed to be preparing himself to get hit. When Broly was unleashing energy blasts from before, Avalon quickly opened his scroll and held it before him. The scroll began to glow a soft blue color before absorbing one of Broly's ki blasts temporarily. Avalon juggled the scroll in his hands, trying not to get his hands burned from the immense power he held.

"Ouch, yowch! Hot!" Avalon whined. "Gotta be quick 'fore it explodes on me!"

Before he could get hit by Broly's spear, Bage managed to save them, and with a thumbs up, Avalon took this chance to go on the offense.

His ability will definitely be super useful later on! Avalon smirked.

The deafening and blinding gunshot from Cayde flung Avalon back, stunning him. Dazed slightly, Avalon went back up to his feet with a wobble before quickly shaking his head to see the golden bullet. Not wasting a second, Avalon let out a bird cry that immediately caught the attention of all his taunting clones. Without having to say a word, he nudged his chin towards Broly's direction and the clones obeyed, quickly grabbing on to his legs and slowing him down. Some clones exploded into water that splashed onto him, soaking the Saiyan Xy'pher. With Cayde's Golden Bullet unleash, Avalon took this chance to unleash the attack he kept in his scroll.

Avalon threw his scroll in the path of the bullet as best he could before the scroll violently opened up and unleashed Broly's attack. The attack quickly engulfed the bullet, powering it up even further! The green energy blast swirled around the bullet, giving it the appearance of a drill with two trails of different colors. With Broly slowing down, the bullet is sure to hit its mark.

Zenta braced himself regardless whether Broly was stopped or not, tensing himself as a mean to keep Spina protected. He quickly jumped in front of Bara and Bernkastel, primary to give Bara a chance to recover from her Angry Shout attack. Nia quickly floated over behind Zenta and held up her hands to form an invisible barrier to protect the group from whatever may come their way. Her arms trembled, however, fearing that her barrier might not be enough.

"W-Where is it..?"

The crowd continued to get more and more excited, cheering for Broly and boo'ing at the Breakers at every attack they did. Louder and louder they cheered the ominous name of a mysterious Xy'pher that has yet to appear.

Gravita! Gravita! GRAVITAAAAA!
 
The Hive Arena

Amongst the chaos, Broly’s mind was starting to piece together completely; unleashing his unhinged personality that was hidden away from his memory loss. Despite the battle-damaged Broly took from the others, the Saiyan berserker cackled like a devil; his savage face was clear as day towards Zenta, Bara and Bernkastel.

Despite closing the gap between them, Broly was pushed back from Bara’s powerful scream. His feet drag against the rigged earth before stomping one foot on the ground to halt his position. He opened his mouth, despite the broken jaw, fired multiple energy blasts towards the Majin. Unfortunately, each were deflected by May’s multiple round fire.

Once again, Broly’s power began to increase. Like an ocean that never seems to end, as Broly forcibly moves forward despite the scream pushing him back, moving one foot at a time. He arched down once he gained some momentum and suddenly poured huge amounts of energy towards one of his legs. “Die hard.”

The energy poured into his right leg exploded, pushing the Broly forward like a rocket. It flung all the clones away from him, as he once again closed the gap between himself and the support group. It was so fast that Bara’s cream was no longer pushing him back. He clashed against the barrier in front of the support group and shattered it. Cocking his right hand back, Broly drives his punch towards Bernkastel.

In mere seconds after the Saiyan punched the Witch of Miracles, his head whipped to the side as the golden bullet fired by Cayde, and further powered by Avalon, pierced through like butter. His body flail as his head nearly exploded just from mere impact of the bullet alone.

Yet, Broly’s drive for battle gave one more bout, letting out one last effort to obliterate the support group with the energy attack still fresh from his hand. “Struggle… but you all shall die…. Omega Blaster….!!” The energy grew tremendously in size, nearly engulfing Zenta first before reaching the others.

During Broly's reckless attack, Berserk saw the smokescreen around them move like silt following the direction of disturbance in water. A wayward attack grazed Berserk's arm at the shoulder, causing her to grab it with a pained grunt. Unable to predict where another attack will come from, she stood at Avalon's side unaware of Broly's energy spear headed right for them.

A tint of pink engulfed them before the sound of something struck it from behind her. Seeing the spear be reclaimed, the Powerpunk Girl sighed in relief before flashing Detective Bage two thumbs up as thanks. As soon as Avalon dove in with his scroll toss, Berserk disappeared into the smoke to lurk and wait.

Bernkastel, who had been keeping her attention focused on finding where the entity would come out from, stood behind Zenta and saw the large Xypher Saiyan suddenly appear and tower above even the tailed man-beast."Shit! He's fast--!" Bernkastel swore as Nia's barrier broke down.

What happened next was beyond her prediction. Rather than swing his fist at Zenta in front of her, Broly aimed it right at her. Startled, Bern took a panicked step back to try and teleport out of his range; his massive fist closed in before she fully evaporated into thin air. The smoke of her lower half rematerialized before her back hit the ground and caused her to leave a trailing crater several yards from Broly's punch.

Half of her face was bright red with an imprint from the Captain's knuckles on her swollen cheek, spitting out a mouthful of blood. Her head felt like she were underwater, which made it hard for her to stand back up. "You... lowlife..." she choked out between spatters of blood. Bernkastel prepared to retaliate until Broly threw the massive energy blast at her group. Nothing she'd cast would possibly redirect or protect them in time.

"They're too far away..." Bern opened both eyes wide in realization. The distance! I have distance! quickly exhaling, the Witch covered her ears and shut her eyes to block the chaos out. Breathing in one long, carefully measured breath, the world around her dissolved into black and time became a crawl. Her eyes shone white as the throbbing pain faded from her relaxed posture.

Hardly any deliberation was needed now that Bernkastel extended her reaction time. Arms outstretched, white spectral snakes emerged from her sleeves to wrap around the waists of Nia, Bara, Zenta and Spina like vines. The Witch pulled them toward her, flying up high enough to bring them above the reach of Broly's blast; the gravitational pressure made her expend more energy to resist it just so they'd be high enough.

Breaking her held breath finally, Bernkastel wiped her mouth off as they collectively sank back down to the ground from the growing pressure. "Just in time," she coughed before staring blankly ahead where she believed was the source of the heavy pressure.

"Spina," Bern deadpanned. "Break time is over. You better be ready to fight."
===
At the second Bernkastel completed her breathing technique, Berserk stopped and frowned when she saw the familiar split-second flash of black cross her vision. Again... Not much time to question it other than it meant she needed to attack quickly before something else did. Dashing off in a bright crimson beam, Berserk reappeared behind Broly.

"Hey. I didn't say our tussle was over!" Her hair ribbons wrapped around his neck and limbs to deliver a nasty surprise of plasma lightning all over his drenched crystal body.
 
Zenta growled under his breath when Bernkastel was hit, but could not move out in time from Broly's attack. He tensed his body, trying his best to keep Spina protected, yet, before he could move a muscle, he found himself floating with the others. His face trailed back to Bernkastel, and his expression was that of gratitude. Nia felt the mysterious pull towards Bernkastel, and she bowed her head to the Witch for saving her life. However, her attention quickly returned to the single entrance to the arena. Her eyes widen quickly, and she immediately held out her hands to form a barrier.

The cheering crowd screamed and cried now that the main event was beginning to unfold. It was so loud that the Breakers could not hear the growing stomping noises that came towards them. Just like before, Bernkastel, Zenta, Spina, and Bara would feel a growing pressure, but this time it was drastically pulling them in. Out from the entrance came charging a petite female covered in armor, ready to ram towards the group. The force was too strong for them to move away from, and her charge quickly broke through Nia's barrier like butter. The female tackled Zenta directly on his chest, sending the fox and Spina spinning wildly out of control towards the barrier surrounding the dome. Zenta spat out blood and hacked in pain as he felt Spina slam against the dome behind him. Both he and Spina slid down the barrier and fell to the floor next to Spawn and Bage.

The force behind the tackle not only sent Zenta and Spina flying, but it also flung Bernkastel, Bara, and Nia in the opposite directions even though they were not hit. The force behind it felt like being hit by an invisible train. Once the group was separated, the petite girl was no older than Avalon or Berserk and barely taller than Bernkastel! Her presence drove the crowd insane. The Xy'phers nearby Lucifer would bump and shove him, and some would even crawl over his wings to see the Dark Xy'pher.

GRAVITA! GRAVITA! GRAVITAAAAA! HOOOOO RAAAAH! HOOOO RAAAAAH!

"The star of the show is heeeere~! Me! Gravita!" The Dark Xy'pher cheered on her people. "Now I get to have fun! Who wants to see some rumble?! Who should I kill first?!"

The crowd of Xy'phers went insane once more before turning their heads and pointing their fingers at Spina.

Kill Spina! Kill Spina! Kill Spina!

"Pickin' out the weakest from the group eh?! I like it!"

"No!" Nia shouted before holding out her hand and using her psychic power to push Gravita towards the other side of the dome, away from Spina. "You will not hurt any of them!"

Gravita skidded on the floor and her back lightly bounced off the wall of the dome.

"Heehee, you're that traitor Xy'pher, huh? The King spoke a bit about you and says we should kill you on sight." Gravita cackled menacingly before walking towards Nia who instinctively placed a barrier. "You don't scare me!"

Gravita held out her hand to touch the barrier, and Nia instantly felt her barrier wrap around her and shrinking slowly. Gravita was planning to crush the Xy'pher using her own barrier against her. Smaller and smaller the barrier closed in, with Nia struggling to free herself to no avail.

"You're not as strong as you were before, huh? Pathetic!"

"Crap! We gotta help Nia..! What to do?!" Avalon panicked before quickly turning to Berserk and her electric ribbons. "Aha!"

With quick hand signs, Avalon summoned a bull-like creature and ordered it to charge towards Gravita. Without skipping a beat, he grabbed one of Berserk's ribbons, getting a shock before pointing his scroll towards the creature he summoned. The scroll began to glow a deep blow color before shifting to match Berserk's electricity in color. It charged up for a few seconds before firing out a small plasma bullet towards the paper bull, electrifying it. It ran faster and faster until it began a literal blur of plasma and struck Gravita, freeing Nia from being crushed. Avalon released Berserk's ribbon and his hair frizzed up.

"Never doin' that again..." Avalon said as his hair sizzled.

"Hey! I wasn't done killin' her, ya'know!" Gravita pouted. "Oh well, when I'm done pickin' yous one by one, I'll play with her! But anyway, I should get rid of your weakest member!"

Gravita skipped towards Spina like a child and stared at Spawn and Bage with big purple eyes.

"You're gonna move, RIGHT?"
 
The Hive Arena

Once the bullet had pierced through Broly's skull, Cayde's glowing eyes vanished in an instant and the fire evaporated into nothing. The android exhaled slowly, lowering his gun while he watched on in the explosive result of the Omega Blaster; bracing a bit to maintain his stance. He perked his head from side to side, however, at the impending pressure that approached alongside the growing chants from the Xy'pher audience. A serious stern stare adorned the android's face as he watched the entrance, tensing a bit until Gravita herself had entered the battlefield to the uproaring applause of her people.

Cayde dropped his shoulders with a wide eyed stare, his loud mechanical voice nearly muffled by the immense cheers of the crowd.

"You gotta be kidding?! That's Gravita?!"

The android twitched in confusion, his eyes shutting half way in frustrated dejection of the immense disappointment that he felt not so much in Gravita's appearance, but the audience's intense uproar of cheering. He turned around and flailed his arms at the crowd near him, completely oblivious to the loud "fzzt" that rung out next to him.

"Hey!! What about us?! Didn't you see our coordinated moves? Our big explosions? The bubble gum healing beam?! My Golden Gun?! THE WATER ELECTRICITY THINGY?!!"

Cayde stood nearly motionless while the crowds continued to cheer on with a clear focus that was not on him or the other Breakers, much to the android's dismay. Cayde grumbled to himself angrily as he rapidly fidgetted with his beltline, his arms trembling in anger as he struggled to replace his empty cartridge in his hand cannon while he rambled on incoherently about the lack of respect from the crowd. Eventually reloading his gun, Cayde raised the pistol and fired indiscriminately into the crowd; emptying the magazine.

"Little bastards! Who the hell cheers for little girls over death defying stunts and explosions?!"

"Cayde."

Cayde turned his head at the sound of Vegetto's dual voice, barely nodding in reply.

"Oh hey."

The android then blinked hard once, promptly turning around once the annoyance at the crowd fully washed away from clouding his judgement.

"OH HEY! Where the hell have you been?! Where's Clark?"

Vegetto kept his eyes forward, watching the scene with Gravita still unfolding.

"He's recovering. l'll explain later...do you have any senzus on you?"

Cayde frowned in reply, looking down towards his belt and reaching through his cartridges for pockets.

"Uh...I'm not sure. I'll check but...it's kinda hard to have those when the city they're made in is destroyed."

Vegetto extended out his right hand towards the android while Cayde fiddled with his belt, the Potara fusion's expression visibly growing more irritated at each passing second.

"C'mon Cayde...we don't have all day!"

"I know I know! Shut up...maybe it was this one...nope....uhhh...maybe over...here?"
 
As Gravita entered the ring, Bage was caught off guard by her stature. His face twisted in surprise. She was the size of a child compared to half of them! It wasn't until the others being flung by the small fighter did he seem to get nervous, remembering that he couldn't underestimate this enemy by her size alone. She seemed like a powerhouse all on her own. seeing the others go flying was proof of that. He turned to Spina and Zenta as they slammed into the barrier next to he and Spawn in worry before turning back to the Dark Xy'pher and preparing h ok myself for a fight. He moved in front of both Breakers to block Gravita's path to them. He glared down at the girl's demand before answering in earnest.

"Not a chance. You'll have to get through us first." The detective clenched his fist, his ki swirling around to create another, even bigger shining Warhammer attack. "I hope you don't expect us to die so easily!"

Without any hesitation, Bage roared while throwing the ki hammer down with all his might to crush the small Xy'pher where she stood.
 
Bara had turned to the new arrival, the Xy'pher Gravita, but already she was narrowing her eyes towards her already. While she continued to heal Spina, she already was calculating her moves to assist the others, mentally commanding some small pieces of herself she had set up as a barrier to shrink to miniscule size so one couldn't see them with the naked eye, then have them form into fists to strike at Gravita from behind as a form of flying fists and in lieu of a hit and run tactic, wanting to make Gravita think she was in multiple places at once, constantly on the move and wanting to keep her disoriented enough for the others to tag in and attack.

It was at times like this that Bara held onto a lesson that Brachi taught her: if enemies fight with every dirty trick possible, give them a taste of their own medicine. Fight fire with fire, by any means to remove any threat the enemy poses. There was no more time to play around.
 
May thinks as she jumps out the way of the blast "somehow I not surprised." May takes out a pistol and starts to shoot Gravita.

May says "Nia do keep in mind that the group of idiots you're with. Were jumped in the tiger's den for largely idiotic reasons. If your able just run support Nia and let the loud ones deal with her."
 
"Whooooo!! I was goin' full voltage there!" Berserk cheered as she high-fived Avalon. "Makes ya feel alive don't it?! I got the idea after shocking myself while trying to dismantle a defibrillator as a kid. Way to pack a whallop dude!"

She heard the buzz of a familiar noise, turning with an excited look on her face. "Hey look, it's Mr. Vegetto! More like Late-getto, dropping in just when things pick up for us." Berserk playfully scolded. "You shoulda seen us giving ol' Broccoli a run for his money! Oh yeah! I think this girl's the one Eleki called his sister. She's the head honcho here, but apparently she's cut the network off from the Red King. So! Main thing is don't die and help us kick her ass. We gotta take this place down since they're gonna take over another city if we don't."

"Well, I see the family resemblance," Bernkastel remarked sarcastically. Despite having been flung back so violently by Gravita's tackle, her focused composure wasn't as shaken up this time around. Possibly because Broly's attack wisened her up to their strategy of being hard-hitters, but the injury to her face wasn't seemingly as painful as it was a moment before.

This one has armor on for some reason... I could try damaging it but if I get close, I won't be able to escape her gravity pull. What else to do... The witch narrowed her eyes, watching how Gravita moves and responds to attacks. But this Xy'pher seems vain and unstable. I'll just exploit that.

Avalon's bull attack gave her an idea for how to do it. Widening her stance, Bernkastel's shadow distorted beneath her until it manifested a shadow-puppet shaped like a cat. "Alright kitty. Follow my tempo," she ordered sternly... before placing her hands over her head and moving them to mimic cat ears. The feline stood on its hind legs and mimicked her dancing, a green sheen building as their movements synced up. Once it glowed brightly, Bernkastel picked the creature up and made a heel turn to see Gravita approaching Bage and Spawn.

"She likes to put on a show so let's make her fumble the performance." There was no malice in her tone but rather a detached curiosity about exploiting the Dark Xy'phers quirky personality. With Bage readying an answer for the Dark Xy'pher, Bern swung her whole body and chucked the shadowy familiar while Gravita turned her back on them in an effort to force a divide in her attention.

".... Catch," Bern said after a delayed pause.
 
"Speak for yourself, Berserk..." Avalon puffed out smoke from his mouth. "Electricity ain't my thing."

The ninja's attention quickly landed on Vegetto and his expression brighten. With Vegetto here, he assumed the battle will become much easier.

Now that Vegetto's here, we got everyone fightin' Gravita and Broly. This works in our favor.

Gravita pouted when Bage refused to move. Her eyes and smile widen when she saw the Warhammer, and when Bage slammed it on top of her head, a large cloud of dust and debris lifted. When it settled, she stood in the same position with the end of Bage's Warhammer being stopped by a pinkish aura that, quite literally, slurped up the energy hammer. The intense gravity pulled his energy hammer apart. It pulled Bage's Warhammer in and stretched it out so thin, that it looked like spaghetti in Bage's hands.

"Your hammer looks wimpy! My fists work a lot better! Watch!"

Finally, she outstretched her tiny hands and the surrounding crystal around them started to morph and contort into her signature pink Gravity Gauntlets. Once Bage's hammer completely disappeared, she condensed the gravity around her hands to form a fist that prevented Bage from escaping and pulled him in. Bage was pulled directly towards her gauntlet. Reeling her arm back, she launched her fist towards Bage's face, hitting him at full force and sending the Saiyan flying back.

"One more time!"

As Bage flew, he slowed down and came to a stop before rushing right back to Gravita's gauntlet from the intense gravitational pull. He flew so fast that all Gravita had to do was hold out her fist and Bage's face would slam right on it as hard as the first time.

"Ta-daa!" Gravita giggled as the crowd cheered and clapped. "Thank you! Thank you~!"

The Xy'pher bowed to her people before playfully jumping over Bage's body in order to get closer to Zenta and Spina. In her playful walk, she mimicked the Jaw's theme the closer she got to the two. She stopped, however, after being struck by Bara's Bubblegum Fists. Now her attention was set on the hit-and-run tactics of the move, and she was too slow to move out of the way or evade. With May's bullets adding on to that, Gravita held her arms up to block some damage. More and more fists and bullets slammed against her, and her annoyance was starting to show.

"UGH! So annoying! I'm being attacked by flies!" Gravita pouted before clapping her hands together. "I know how to get rid of pesky flies!"

As Bara's attack continued, Gravita slowly began to open her palms and a very tiny black and pink dot floated in the middle. It began to grow larger and larger, until any Bara Fists and bullets that came too close were instantly sucked in. The ground cracked under her feet and rubble floated around her and towards the mini black hole she formed in her hands. All of Bara's Bubblegum Fists and May's bullets that aimed to attack Gravita were sucked into the hole in an instant, and once she caught everything attacking her, she turned to the Majin and May with a wicked smirk.

"Catch!" Gravita pulled her arms back to rip and split the black hole into two smaller ones. She reeled her arm back and flung the black holes towards Bara and May like baseballs. As the black holes grew closer, it ripped apart the ground and created a giant rock boulder aimed directly at Bara and May.

"Now then, where was I? Oh yeah! Killin' Spina and the Breaker's doggy."

However, before Gravita took a step, she turned to face Bernkastel's cat and caught it hesitantly. At first, she seemed confused, but her sinister eyes widen slightly before petting the kitty and giggling. Unfortunately, the sheer amount of gravity her gauntlets contained began to rip the kitty apart with every pat she gave the cat.

"Hey, ugly!" She called to Broly. "Get your butt into gear and MOVE IT! We got Breakers to kill! Get rid of 'em! NOW! I'll handle those two!" Gravita nudged her head to Spina and Zenta. "The King's gonna be so proud of me once I bring 'im the Breakers! I wanna keep one of 'em tho'! Whoever lands a hit on me I get to keep!"
 
May says flatly "well fuck you too." As may evades the rocks she tosses a grenade at the blackholes. It's strange instead of the explosion one expected it somehow workers like a white hole.

May says still shooting Gravita "I gest we are going to have to kill the gravity mage Bara." May thinks "so the name was really that obvious."
 
Majin Bara on the other hand narrowed her eyes and simply shrunk herself quickly to move out of the way before she reformed as she heard what May said, nodding.

"You're not the only one capable of that trick, Gravita..." Bara then said as she then lifted numerous boulders herself using telekinesis before hurling them towards the Xy'pher.
However this proved to be only a cover for a more devious plan on the Majin's part, as the moment she hurled the boulders towards her, she also tagged each of them with a speck of energy that was too small to see with the naked eye, but was potent enough to make each boulder into a floating mine, so whenever Gravita would strike one to get it out of the way, it would detonate in either a fierce explosion, or a plume of smoke as if Bara had used her ability to generate steam from the holes on her body to make some of the explosive boulders into smoke grenades, intending to disorient Gravita so she and May could plan their next actions accordingly and quickly.
