124.) A Dazzling Return!

Diane: "It's not within my nature to harm those I once swore to protect."

Aurorin: "Tch! It's not healing fast enough. C'MONNN!!!"

Berixan: "Fock this, allow me to assist you, dear. We need all hands on deck just to survive this!"

Aurorin: "R-Right… come! Assist me then, babe!"

Berixan: "Hm… *grin* I'm on it!"

Diane: "Ha, but it would seem we must take you all down for the sake of this Clan's new found order. So… forgive us for what's about to happen." *CRASH*

Dante: "GWUAAARGH!!!"

He smashes out of the rubble that toppled over him. It knocked him unconscious for quite some time.

Katrina: "Gah- Dante! *PEW* You're back! About damn time!"

Divina: "Finally! Hahahaaa!"

Diane: "Sir Meachie… is that?"

Meachie: "Yeah, that's him, Lady Diane. That's… Delio-Dant Azrufel, leader of the Rebellion and the man that has single-handedly become the biggest threat to this new found order we've come to acquire."

???: "Then I guess our goal is clear then… big sis Diane."

Diane: "Indeed it is, Ny'Eiir, my little brother. What do you say we do to'em all?"

Ny'Eiir: "Kah, I say we crush them all thoroughly. The Luums; Black, Daimond and Platinum is all that will be needed. Isn't that right, Tomford?"

Tomford: "Mrhm!"

Diane: "Hehe, well… you all heard the man! We six versus the leadahs of the great Rebel Army." *Malicious Chuckle*

The three members of the Rays stand above their three selected Luums. Healing them to full strength, smiling as their matching Priest robes flow in the breeze from their essence. Both Ny'Eiir and Tomford were twin brothers with matching haircuts. Their hair was parted at the top, Ny'Eiir's being more to the left side of his head. While Tomford's was to the right. Both having the side of their head the part leaned towards completely shaved. With three lines being etched onto the shaved sides of their hair as a design. They adored their elder sister so they donned matching glasses to go with her own. Their robes were completely closed, unlike their sister's which was split down the middle. Their loafers and gloves were also diamond encrusted. All three wore tiaras and crowns, with matching earrings that were shaped like upside down crosses. One should know that Diane is the elder sister to King William while the twins were his younger siblings. The strength of the current ruling house of the Light Clan was truly unmatched.

Aurorin: "Ah… I'm finally healed up. Now then babe… we'll have to take on Diane ourselves, sadly. The Autheriens can take on Tomford while the Illumas take on Ny'Eiir."

Doc-Martin: "That works for us!"

Lizellite: "Indeed!"

Ny'Eiir: "Hahaaa, Come at me!"

Billard: "Tom."

Tomford: "Bleh."

Myne: "Irritating brat!"

Aurorin: "Katrina and Divina will keep their attacks going on Platinum while-"

Dante: "I can deal with Diamond… on- my own! Dwayne, back- me up." *Stumble*

Everyone watches as Dante struggles to reach the front of the group. Stumbling along from his injuries, refusing to Heal himself as he treads along. A stubborn waltz from a stubborn man bent on pushing forward for some odd reason. A tenacity the troops of the Rebellion have yet to see from their fearless leader.

Beeso: "Woah man, you got hit with the brunt of that attack earlier. I don't think you're in any condition to fi-"

Dante: *Smack* "Move your hand Beeso, and stand aside. You, Maeli, Sammy and Mackey are to support our troops and nothing… more! *Grunt* You… got that?"

Diane: "Oh?"

Mackey: "Got it."

Sammy: "Yessir!"

Maeli: "It's for the best right now!"

Beeso: "B-But, Dante."

Dante: "Don't worry about me."

He stands tall as he takes the lead alongside Aurorin.

Aurorin: "Good to see you up here, Lord Dante. But… can you truly go on?"

Everyone at the front sits in silence as they sit with looks of doubt. Diane's troops have the same looks upon their faces, all except Diane and Meachie. Meachie, who knew of his peerless strategies and troop coordination when in battle. Plus his Legendary Class study, the Archive. Diane herself felt something from him that piqued her interest in a fascinating way.

Diane: (This… boy. He's…)

Dante: "Oh hush woman. You can't feel it, Lady Aurorin? This massive swelling of essence within me right now?"

Aurorin: "Hm? (This is…)

Berixan: "Ah… then we've nothing to worry about."

Dante: "Damn right. Now then… REPEL THESE BASTARDS REBELLS!!!"

He raised his arm high as his long sun bright hair stood up and went wild.

Diane: "Hahaaa!!! Put these sad puppies down troops!"

She waved her arm out and commanded her team to take down the Rebellion. They all charge ahead on with rousing battle cries.

Their charge was met head on by the full force of Aurorin and Dante's battlefront. Clashing with one another, firing off dozens of raging waves of essence. Essence that collides and explodes with force unrivaled by what was once displayed before. Diane herself awaits the arrival of her two adversaries, Aurorin and Berixan.

Aurorin: "You got me good with that sneak attack earlier you old twat!"

Diane: "Ah c'mon old friend. Why talk about the past, that happened ages ago. Let's just focus on the here and now." *Grin*

She waves her hand, leaving behind a misty haze that had many sparks and light within it. Almost like a small Nebula, a nebula that could grow its own stars as hers did before their very eyes.

Berixan: "And so it begins! Allow me to display my study finally."

Diane: "A what?" *SCREEECH*

The stars formed within her nebula shoot out well beyond the speed of light. Becoming as thin as string as they approach Aurorin and Berixan.

Berixan: "Radiate The Cosmos: FLASH!"

Diane: (He… He raided-)

Aurorin: (The ancient temple of Radiation!?) "You acquired that Ultra Rare study? Since when!?"

His attack shoots out like a bomb, one with enough rage and strength to wipe out more than five universes instantly. But with this specific attack, the flash is used to blind their opponent while the actual attack is condensed into an expanding ray. Disintegrating all it comes into contact with, withering them to burning particles that diffuse into the space around them. This development left Diane quite surprised.

Diane: "Well, well well. You're just full of surprises, aren't you Sir Berixan?"

Berixan: "Heh, I try-" *SMASH*

Diane: "Show me more…"

She smashes her knee into his stomach, placing her hands on his back and pulling him further into it.

Berixan: "GAH!! M-My… PLEASURE!" *Snicker*

Aurorin: "Hmph!" *SWISH*

Aurorin sneaks up on Diane and attempts to knock her off balance with a Physical Zenchi, Birthright wrapped roundhouse. Diane smiles at her as she pushes Berixan away, blasting him several times in an attempt to rid herself of his Radioactive barrier. Which was funny since she used her own barrier to block Aurorin's powerful kick.

Aurorin: "Tss, quite the little barrier you have here."

Diane: "Yeah… I projected my Presence Zenchi outward and wrapped a layer of Armored Zenchi around it."

Aurorin: "Clever as always."

Diane: "Indeed." *SWISH*

*WHAM* Aurorin is sent flying into Berixan by a heavy left hook. Berixan was just getting his wits about him after being sent flying into an imploding star by her volley from earlier. The two of them collide, being throttled a few dozen miles back by the force of Diane's blow.

Aurorin: "Tch! *Rub* Sheesh, she packs quite the wallop. That one there, she does… and that was without Zenchi or the use of any Element. Not even a darn Birthright, dear!"

Berixan: "Well damn, this won't be easy even in the slightest, will it?"

Aurorin forms a wall of essence to stop their flight path. That wall becomes their platform as she helps Berixan rise to his feet. Diane lands on the platform with them and deliberately stands within the middle of the two. Staring them both down with a smile full of excitement.

Diane: "Show me… show me the strength of the house that rivals our own!"

Her essence begins to swell, causing the universe to wipe itself from existence. For her essence was being raised to an unholy level of potency. Confirming she was more than ready to take them both on… and come out victorious. Her presence showed no signs of doubt.

Aurorin: "And…"

Aurorin and Berixan: "SO WE SHALL!!!" *WOOSH*

Diane: "HA!!" *kaBLOOOM*

They clash head on, creating a destructive force with a range great enough to wipe out well over three universes. Even when condensed, and so the universes fell. With the exception of the rebellion's fortress m, standing tall as its protected by those that support the leaders of the rebillion.

Sammy: "Damn, they're all so intense this time around!"

Mackey: *Blast* "That's due to the fact that Diane and the others are out for blood." *Glare*

Beeso: "Mhm… even with our added boosts and back-up fire. It just seems like our side is slowly losing ground in all this!"

Meachie: "Indeed they are, young Gods."

Maeli: "What the!?"

She jumps back and gets into her battle stance.

Mackey: "Damn, seems you were the odd man out, huh?"

Meachie: "Indeed!"

Sammy: "You piece of shit, I won't allow you to do them any harm!" *SWISH*

Meachie: "Mrhm."

Sammy releases a barrage of fists with Physical and Presence Zenchi wrapped around them. Tearing at Meachie as the force from the onslaught blew everyone back several kilometers. But even with the many heavy strikes Sammy threw, Meachie stood in place. Unaffected by any if his strikes, standing behind a barrier made of his Presence and Armored Zenchi. A direct copy to the technique Diane used before.

Meachie: "I think it to be wise that you don't waste your damn time here."

Sammy: "Tch! Why is this barrier so damn THICK AND DENSE!?"

Meachie: "Hmph." *SMASH*

Sammy received a nasty uppercut to his gut. One that shocked his entire body into a paralyzed state. He threw up blood as he fell to the floor. Laying face first on top of the fortress.

Mackey: "How dare YOU!!!" *FWIP*

Maeli: "MACKEY! Tsch! Dammit all!" *FWIP*

Beeso: "Shit! Dance Machine: B-Boy Boost!"

Beeso goes into a head spin that turns into windmills. Then baby windmills, transitioning into some clean air flares then back into baby windmills, but two times as fast as before. The further he goes, the higher the potency of his technique.

Meachie: "Nice study there, Lord Beeso… but it means little to nothing here. Observe." *Woosh*

He avoids a roundhouse to the face, striking down a large ball of light shot out by Mackey.

Mackey: "Damn!" *FWIP*

Meachie dodged Mackey's haymaker, smashing his foot into Mackey's face. Maeli attempts to counter in order to give Mackey time to recover his senses. But she was stopped by a harsh grip to her throat. She was held up high above Meachie. Watching as he tightened his grip and increased the power, slowly breaking her neck little by little. Mackey was left discombobulated by Meachie's kick to the face, allowing Meachie to follow up with a devastating ax kick that splinters Mackey to the floor. Leaving their small team, nearly wiped out in moments.

Meachie: "You're a troublesome one, Beeso. You'll die with the rest in one fell swoop. Heh… *Grin* here!" *TOSS*

He throws the unconscious Maeli at Beeso. Who catches her, not realizing she was used as a mere diversion.

Meachie: "Die, Atomic Fist-"

Katrina: *GRIP* "Why don't we stop that."

Meachie: "Hm? (What about Platinum?) *Glare*

He notices Platinum being evenly matched by Divina.

(I see now, how unexpected… yet futile nonetheless.) Hmph! Was NOT expecting to face you today, Lady Katrina!" *FWIP*

Katrina: "First for everything Meachie, you bastard!" *FWIP*

*CLASH*

Diamond: "You're quite stubborn, Dante. Why don't you use that Archive of yours before you die. Your friend can't back you up forever."

He looks over at Dwayne who was panting heavily from the amount of attacks thrown at him and sent back his way. Leading to him wasting essence on offense and expense with every wrong move.

Dante: "Hmph, I didn't train under Gaia and Shiishii this last year for nothing. *peTEWH* I can feel it coming!" *PEW*

Diamond: (His speed increased quite a bit!)

Dante throws a right hook at the Diamond Luum. Forcing them to take a few steps back instinctively. Dante noticed this and spiked his speed once more for a blitzed upon their person. Forcing the Diamond Luum to raise their guard, coming into contact with the full force of Dante's kick. The power behind it forced Diamond to fly back quite a bit. Taken aback by this, they lose their overconfident nature and thrust forward with two Diamond Sabres.

Dwayne: "Heh! Time to stop him in his track-"

Dante: "Save your strength and go help Katrina against Meachie. I got this now!" *Woosh* *SWISH*

He dodges to slashes and leaps away with the Diamond Luum in towe.

Dwayne: "Heh *Nose Rub* I gotcha captain Delio!" *PEW*

Dante smiles as he hears Dwayne's words. Bringing an ease to his spirit as he could now confirm Katrina wouldn't be in danger. The Diamond Luum took this as him being distracted and acted accordingly. Sneaking in a slash with light imbued into its Zenchi coated blade. Dante smiled even wider, blocking the attack with his control of minerals. For he had summoned a layer of triple layered Diamond with bursting light behind it. A mix of his Light Element and Mineral Birthright. A development the Diamond Luum wasn't expecting.

Diamond: (He broke me sabers!? But how… he was reported to barely be a 32 now. Just what in the world is going on!?)

Dante: "Psss…"

Diamond: "Huh!?"

Dante: "Gehee!" *FWISH*

Diamond: "Wha- *SMAAASH* (D-Damage to my Diamond armor AND Skin!? What a heavy blow, but still… HOW!?)

Dante: "I can FEEEEL IIIIT!!! Now come on, mate!!!" *FWIP*

He dashes forward with his arms and legs wrapped in Layers of Diamond. Topped off with Physical and Presence Zenchi

Diamond: "Damn!"

Dante and Diamond dance across the void that stretched for more than ten universes now. Their mini war was smashing the cosmic structure of this portion of the clan apart. Dante continues to bombard the Diamond Luum with barrages of ferocious attacks repeatedly. Slowly but surely gaining ground on the Luum who was now on the defensive. Trying their best to make a turn around in the battle.

Ny'Eiir: "Hmph… quite the development over there. That man Dante is quite the fighter! Don't you think?"

He looks down upon Lizellite and Doc-Martin who were both taking knees. The strength of Ny'Eiir was a lot more than they gambled for.

Doc-Martin: "I-Indeed he is, but… this bout here? It isn't … ovah!" *Stumble*

Lizellite: "D-Damn right, my love!" *Thud* She falls on her butt, giving it her all as she slowly rises to her feet after.

Ny'Eiir: "Hah… as expected from you two. (Diamond's got his hands full with that one. I can tell that this is…)"

Tomford: "Mrhm!" *Glare*

Myne: "N-Nrgh… l-let me… go, you… brute!" *Prch*

Billard: "Invigorated QUAKE Fist!!!" *SWOOSH*

Tomford: "Mrhm mhm(Come now Billard, it's futile.) *VWIMP* Mrhmhm Mhm hm! (Be Deleted here and Now!)"

Billard throws his hand forward, smashing it into the cheek of Tomford. Smiling as he believes he landed a definite strike. But to his surprise, his essence was deleted along with the strength for his attack. Tomford's face hadn't even budged one bit.

Tomford: "Mrhm mh(See, I told you.)"

He releases his grip on Myne's neck. Gripping her head instead, as well as Billard's head before he could fall back.

Billard: "Gah- *SMASH* DWUAR!!"

Myne: "AHHH!!!"

Their heads were smashed into one another. Leaving them concussed and wide open for another attack. Tomford uttered the words for another Delete class attack to be used. He got rid of the distance between the Autheriens and the Rebellion's Headquarters. Smashing them into the side of the building with unmatched force and power. They were beyond stunned at this point, no way to rebound immediately which further left them open for a lethal attack to land.

Tomford: "Mrhm… *fwiTING* (What the!?)" *Glare*

He looked over in the direction of Dante and Diamond's battle.

Ny'Eiir: "Oh damn, it's really happening!?"

Diane and the Auroras go at it with the greatest intensity on the battlefield right next to Platinum being at a stand still with the Dragonfly abilities of Divina. Aurorin and Berixan used their Birthrights to get a leg up over on Diane's miniscule use of her own Birthright, Star. Berixan smashes her stars apart with his ability to bring constellations and their shapes into existence as actual things or weapons. Even for effects and attacks as well. Aurorin used her Aurora Birthright to overwhelm her many stars and the small Nebulae behind them all.

Diane: "Well now, this is quite the development- WHAT!? *Glare* (Its greater than I initially thought!)"

Aurorin: "Is… is that Dante's essence signature!?"

Berixan: "Yeah, it would seem so."

Aurorin: "Woah!"

Everyone caught wind of the ridiculous surge of power being brought forth by Delio-Dant. His body began to envelope itself with an intense light. He failed to take notice as his focus was greatly pinned on the opponent before him. He and Diamond cross fists a great multitude of times. Clashing, blocking and avoiding the powerful, dense strikes of the other. Both warriors tried their best to act as if they were unphased. But they were very much feeling the hits more and more as time passed. Diamond steadily lost ground, breaking his diamond armor just as Dante broke his own. Severely beating the ever living daylights out of one another without even a lick of hesitation.

Dante: "Here it COOOOOMES!!!" *SWISH*

Diamond: "Damn you DANTEEEE!!" *SWISH*

Their fists cross and smash directly into the other's jaw. Both warriors stumble back a bit, though Diamond seemed to be stunned. Where as Dante…

Dante: "You focker, keep it… COMINNN'!! *WOOSH*

Diamond: "Huh-" *SMASH*

Diamond was hit by a double armed hammer fist, sending him hurtling deep into the void. A snap could be heard and a book of familiar design shows itself, it was the Archive.

Dante: "Archive: Universes… Return."

The destroyed universes from their battles were restored in an instant. This caused Diamond to smash into a star and cause its imminent collapse. Hitting it with more than enough force to bring about a true SuperNova.

Diane: "Did he… just restore the universes!? In a mere instant no less? Oh I'm highly intrigued here, for that light he's releasing from his body can only mean one thing!"

Aurorin: "Dear… he's within his… his!"

Dante: "Archaic Drive: AWAKEN!"

Dante's light brightened to a point that it stretched across more than thirty whole universes. Everyone present on the battlefield could feel its pressure. It burned his oppressors and healed his friends, invigorating them all within the process. From there, the light dimmed at the center and a shadow appeared from within. Their eyes opened, intensifying the light once more before they reached out. Displaying quite the devilish grin, blowing the light and essence away with a simple swipe of his arm. It was then that a new Delio-Dant, Dante the Rebellious was born.

Diane: "No wonder you're the number one target. He turned this whole thing around in an Instant!"

Berixan: "That's quite odd, his power is even greater than you'd expect. He's now at a damn 45 on the scale."

Billiard: "Astounding, all of our wounds have been wiped away. What prowess he has!"

Everyone ogled at the new brilliant form of Dante. His white hair was about the same, ponytail style and all, but a bit longer. Hanging down to the upper mid section of his back. He wore a black sleeveless, skin tight Mage shirt that toted a high collar to cover his neck. His hands, all the way up to his elbow were covered in white and gold, paladin class gauntlets. A white cloth fauld with fur trimming covered his waist all around, leaving only the front exposed a bit. His pants were slim yet baggy for more freedom when moving in combat. His loafers were of dragon skin and white with a black trim at the bottom. On his shoulder rested a white cape with a short sleeve to cover his left arm all the way down to the lower bicep, triceps area. His skin darkened ever so slightly to give off a tan look. But despite all that, his greatest new features were his golden framed glasses and emperor's crown. He tilted his head while smiling at everyone.

Diane: "No one move a muscle. Let's see what Diamond can accomplish here."

Meachie: (She's hoping to see what Dante can do now.)

Katrina: (His power is nearly as great as mine and Divina's own. Even after all our training in this past year since Shiishii's return. He still managed to close the damn gap. Impressive!)

The Diamond Luum attempted to leap at Dante and attack within his blindspot. But, he was instead met with a sudden strike from Dante. His gauntlets ran deep into the Gut of the Diamond Luum. The shockwave released after the attack was powerful enough to shatter the reinforced Diamond armor that has successfully tanked many powerful phenomena. Including the complete downfall of an entire Multiverse. Yet it was shattered like brittle rock here.

Diamond: "How could… som-someone like… you… *GASP* de-feat… meee." *THUD*

Ny'Eiir: *Whistle*

Platinum: "G-Gah… O-One STRIKE!?"

Meachie: "No fockin' wayy!!"

Dante: "And that's all she wrote for a prick like you. Rest and try again anothah day, a day when we aren't so corrupted."

Diamond: … *Wheeze*

Dante: "Oh… he's knocked out."

Tomford: "Mrhm (Sis, allow me to…)"

Diane: (Go ahead, their team can't escape my scope and range for striking.)

She nods her head at her younger brother.

Tomford nods back at her and dashes forward, flying at Dante like a ship traveling with a warp drive. He cocks his fist back and readies it to take Dante out. But to his surprise, Dante can follow his movements and countered with his own punch. *FWOOW* The two attacks clashed head on and rumbled the universe with great force. Everyone was yet again stunned by the prowess of Dante's Drive Form.

Dante: "Step back, Tomford."

Tomford: "HRMM HRMNN? Mrhm mh mhm!? (I'm back at my sister's side? That level of skill!?)"

Diane: "Ah… I see now. Allow me then, though I don't think he'll survive!" *PEW*

Ny'Eiir: "Doubt it."

Diane rushes in on Dante with a ray of bloodlust not even he could ignore. He saw flashes of his own death no matter which way he turned. So he decides to face it head on. Though that was nothing more than a death wish… under normal circumstances at least. Because in this situation here…

???: "Not so fast!"

Beeso: "This voice!?" *Glare*

Dwayne: "Seems our monster is finally here!" *Snicker*

*KaBLOOM*

A massive explosion blows into the cosmos, releasing a force that even greater than what Dante displayed within his Grand Awakening. And it was all done by the mere clash of two bare fists. No essence of any kind to be found. Such was the might of these two battle hardened warriors.

Meachie: "An explosion like that? Who could have matched Diane- (No way!) Wait… i-its him!?"

Maeli: "Ah… Dwayne was right, our monster has arrived." *grin*

Diane: "Well, well well. How have you been, Maliik!"

Maliik: "Tch, never expected to see your fine ass here. Too bad I gotta repel you today!" *WOOSH*

Diane: "Ha, as if, you little buggah!" *SWISH*

Their clash once more using their right legs. Blowing the rest of the combatants away besides Aurorin, Berixan, Ny'Eiir, Dante and Tomford. They watch on as the two clash more than two thousand times within the span of two seconds. Testing one another using miniscule techniques to expose a weakness within the other.

Diane: (Boys, force the Luums to stay back, and eliminate the rest of those idiots down there. We came here with a goal to achieve after all!) *PEW*

Maliik: "Gah! (A damn collapsing STAR!?) *FWISH*

He manages to dodge at the last second, countering her attack with a smooth left hook.

As their fight continues on, Ny'Eiir and Tomford sway the Luums back. Causing quite the confusion amongst the rest of the Rebellion. Aurorin and Berixan gesture at them to be ready. Seeing as the twins were both a 60 on the scale.

Ny'Eiir: "Make no mistake… you'll all be falling here!"

Tomford: "Mhm. (Indeed.)"

Billiard: "Heh, the two of you are strong indeed. But you won't be taking on this type of force all on your lonesome."

Doc-Martin: "Allow us to show you what we mean!" *PEW*

Ny'Eiir: "Pfft." *PEW*

Whilst their battle continued, a group of Gods and Goddesses met within a hidden room. It was located in a pocket dimension found in the great House of Lumiairess. It was here that we found Beel speaking with his team. Scheming their next move, and basking in the free time they have as they await the report from Diane. They were all just brimming with a high level of confidence.

Beel: "With everything we have planned and all the contingencies we have made for this full on hostile takeover. There is one thing that has bothered me for far too long."

Elizabeth: "And what would that be, Billiam?"

Beel: "Mhm… it's the fact that we never found those who escaped the Dazzle Massacre."

Lancelin: "Eeeh, I can see why'd you be cautious in the end. But… those few that did escape that were all weaklings. I don't really think we've got much to worry bout, now do we?"

Beel: "Hmm…"

Christian: "I agree with that ol' yank, Lancelin. I think you're just overreacting to done in and done out folk."

Noel: "I'd say he'd be right to be wary."

Morris: "H'what do you mean, Noel, darling?"

Noel: "I'm just saying, even with the Three Rays there. Forces exist within the omniverse that could use their bare hand to grasp our clan and throw it like a baseball. Which can mean…"

Lancelin: "It can meannn?"

Morris: "Come now, don't leave us hangin'!"

Elizabeth: "It simply means we'd be fools to think the surviving Dazzles would go down without a fight. They'll come for their home one day, probably stronger than when we last encountered them. And they were already plenty strong then!"

Morris: "Ah… I guess that's true."

He rubs the back of his head.

Lancelin: "Hmm… well if that's the case, Beel? What's our next move?"

Beel: "I'd like to wait until Diane and the others return to William to decide such a thing. I have a feeling that'll be crucial to our plans. (Darn, my yankin' Mental Zenchi won't allow me to see what comes after the Rebellion begins to despair!!)"

And that they did, for Ny'Eiir… and Tomford left everyone down and injured badly before their gaze. All but Dante, Aurorin and Berixan stood between them and the final blow that would end the entire team without fail. That would include Maeli and Mackey who were blasted into the side of the fortress. Maliik couldn't get away from Diane, as she herself could not get away from Maliik IF she tried. The Rebellion was within the pits of despair. Dante unable to use his healing abilities within the Archive due to Tomford. He deleted every technique Dante could muster.

Dante: "Damn… this may be the end for us all."

Aurorin: "Tch… I've never been pushed this far in my life. They're nearly unstoppable as a pair."

Berixan: "Y-Yeah… just what the hell are we to do? They've beaten everyone else within an inch of their life. D-Dammit ALL!!"

Ny'Eiir: "Hmph, that's the despair big brother William wished to witness. Yo Tom… end it here and now. I'll boost your potency and essence supply as you do."

Tomford: "Mrhmmhm. (Done and done!)" *SWISH*

Tomford lifted his hand up, summoning a bright yellow ball of essence with a blackened center that took more than half the diameter. Orange Ki flowed within like a wild wind after he changed his Source. Mixing the versatile nature of essence with the potent power and stamina of Ki. The ball grew larger as it condensed, becoming as large as two Jupiter put together. Bringing fear and desperation to am all new high amongst the troops of the Rebellion.

Maliik: "Dammit, Diane! We used to date for Prono's sake! Let me through!!!"

Diane: "And I still love you dearly, but you know how I am. And you know it isn't William giving these demands. A far more powerful source is wrapped within his essence. One nearly equal to me! I can't allow any discrepancies until I conquer THAT FOE!!!" *WOOSH* *POW*

Maliik: "GWUAAARGH!!! (Damn they'll all be killed at this point!!!)"

Diane punches Maliik into a nearby star with a girth and size that went well beyond even that of the gas titan, Betelguese. Maliik uses his control of reality and warps the star away. Smashing Diane in the center by giving her a large amount of polarity. Condensing the star around her until it became a small sphere with the purpose of trapping her. He started to warp the space around her and charge up a shot of pure AntiMatter, his Element. Diane simply smiled at her situation and broke his attack with a max charge of her essence. Frustrating Maliik further as they charge at one another once again.

Tomford: (Sis has him more than occupied enough. We don't have to worry about having to take on that monster.)

Ny'Eiir: "Indeed brother, I agree. Now eliminate them before he finds a way over to us. We need these parts of the Rebellion gone if we wish to conquer the rest. We must prevail here."

Dante: "Tch! They view the three of us as such threats that they won't even allow us to use our abilities. We're focking sitting ducks!"

Tomford: "Mrhmm, mhmmm Etnad (Understood, and indeed you are Dante!)"

Tomford condensed his attack into a small speck, bursting with loads of energy from within. Rays of piercing light and lightning rampage about on the battlefield. Tomford smiled alongside his twin brother and aimed his shot at the Rebellion. Flicking the tiny ball at them with little to no hesitation. It flashed through the void of space and directly in front of Berixan and the others. The three protectors of the Rebellion, giving it their very best until the bitter end to protect their right to fight. To fight for freedom in this corrupted Clan, once graced by endless prosperity. Despair swept across their faces, knowing that this would be the end…

???: "Pierce and disperse!"

Ny'Eiir: "Kehhh!?"

Tomford: "Nrgh (This essence!?)"

Diane: "Tshhhh!"

Maliik: "This essence, this AMOUNT!?"

He glares at the location of Dante and The others. Looking onward as a portal opens up and a rapier erases the attack sent out by Tomford.

???: "Sorry, but my team and I can't allow you Luums or your Rays to do this."

A woman with Golden locks arrived on the scene as she stepped through the portal with five others behind her. The portal closes with one last shadow flickering out and away into the distance.

Dante: "D-D… D-Da-Da…"

Berixan: "About time you guys returned to the scene."

???: "Indeed, now let us help our great Rebellion prevail."
