Ark 24 Episode 20: Closing the gates of heaven

KNOCKING THE DOOR DOWN

King Tyrant: A loud BOOM! Would have echoed throughout Master Zaito's throne room. The doors falling down in hard crashes that blasted down to the floor. Hiro stood there in a martial arts stance in his Commander Armor ( Look on his page to see what it looks like. ) He rose up from his postion to look back at Artemis whom had been with him at the time. There mission was clear... Stop Inu and The Infinites. And rescue David. However... one arrival one could see on the ground before them a massacare. David sat around what looked like Demons, right out of a childrens tale. They bled and coughed there last breaths out before passing on to whatever after life they had waiting for them. " About time... you assholes got here..." David said as he was bleeding from his lips, gashes and the such mangled over his body. Hiro would have rushed over to his side, pressing in on his right ear as he spoke through his Nanomachines. " Lion Carrier 5, this is Commander Lionheart... We have found Liutenant David Anderson under critical conditions. Please send the Emergency squad now. " " Roger that Commander. " The communcation was cut as Hiro helped david sit up. " They... went in there..." David said pointing at the portal that they had so foolishly left open. "... Something about ah...  Cough  Blue heaven... some kind demon mumbo jumbo. "

Before David could finish and Hiro could properly respond. A sloo of INfinite backup Ninjas rushed. Death Blaze, Quake, and Mysto all stood ready to fight the Duo before they looked down at There Master. " Master Zaito! " Quake said rushing over to him to examine his body. "... This is the work of KANG! " Death Blaze said spitting out his name. As they took a better look at Zaito... they'd turn there heads over to Hiro. Death Blaze making the first connection but reamining silent. "... We didnt kill your Master. " Hiro said firmly as he took a step forward. "... I see..." Mysto spoke first as he began to circle the two. " Listen... were going into Blue Heaven. Dont follow us... or we'll have no choice but to Neutralize you. " " We wish not to battle you Commander. But... we want the girl... " Hiro would have looked at Artemis. " She's a traitor to our Order. And must be Dealt with... it's the only way. " "She's with me..." Hiro said with a scowl that would have made a mountain crumble. They all took a step back before Death blade Summoned a blade in his right hand. " TO HELL WITH HIS THREATS... " As he readied himself and his allies for the charge. Another force had summoned themselves into view. The Order...

DeadEye being the first to arrive, then feltcher Steve and soon enough Agent V. DeadEye shot Quake, and killed him dead. Soon enough Mysto would have leaped at Feltcher Steve, only for the assassian to dispatch of him with ease, breaking his neck. And Agent V would had vines uproot from the earth, ripping Death Blaze in two. " ... Tch..." Hiro said as he watched The Order members dispatch of The Infinite Shinobi with ease. "... Sorry were late to the party..." DeadEye said as he held his gun up. " What do you want..." Hiro would have asked though noone would have ansewered. Deadeye turning his attenion over,  staring at Artemis next to Hiro. " Heyyy youu... looking as beautiful as ever. Nice to see you without the bullet hole in your head. Kinda makes me want to put another one there. " Agent V Snickered but Feltcher steve stayed silent... as he waited for The Maru Jeitai soliders to make a move first.

Gri: Artemis wore her Aoi Oni suit, made of really stretchable rubber for flexibility. This rubber contains, a thick 10 pound layer of Kevlar around its outer perimeters. It’s designed to work with her enhancements, and only an additional layer of protection for her already toughened body. It’s impact resistant, but doesn’t overpower Artemis’ already dense tissue. It’s waterproof, fibered to withstand high and low temperatures, subpar of extreme, fully insulated and has noise reduction properties, to deafen her sound around her hands and feet, for complete and total stealth. The suit is filled with knives. Mainly around the forearms, calves, and waist for easy catch and release. These containers do not hinder her movement, nor rattle or shake when she is using them and are hugged tightly to her body. They have a spring loaded contraption within the holster than can shoot these knives towards her hands, or towards her enemies, if need be.

Making her way in to the room beside Hiro, she simply gazed around the carnage all the while wondering what the next step would be. Blue hues gaze down at Master Zaito or the pieces of him anyway as she holds the carbon fiber katana close to her side, an assault rifle lazily placed at her side with the strap around it. As always there were holsters with pistols all along her sides and hips. Hiro rushes to Davids side to see if he is alright, calling in a medic team to aid the soldier. The sniper lifts her head up to gaze at the giant blue portal and she shuts her eyes softly…that crazy bastard had done it. He’d opened the door to blue heaven. “Hiro…” She began, wanting to tell him something but the group of Infinites left would interrupt them as she lets out a Cheshire grin at their angered reaction to seeing their Master slain!! She doesn’t say anything, allowing Hiro to try and smooth things over though with out much success. There wasn’t any time for this!!! “We can’t stand here, we have to go through the portal and stop them—“ " We wish not to battle you Commander. But... we want the girl... " At this, the sniper laughs a little, tightening her hold on the katana and watching them with a dangerous glint. “Get in line.” She mocked smoothly but it seemed like they wouldn’t be taking no for an answer. Fine by her! She was ready to fight!! Quickly getting in to a defensive stance, the super soldier prepares to battle but once again she is interrupted as three figures make themselves known and make quick work of the ninjas, disposing of them within a matter of minutes!! As things settle down, Artemis eyes widen at the sight infront of her….she recognized all three of them instantly as the faces of her fallen comrades flash in her mind. May, Ratchet, Lee…Darius. The sound of a gun going off makes the Sniper almost flinch as she locks piercing hues with a certain red eyed merc….that dull pain in the back of her neck was beginning to ache something fierce. “Heyyy youu... looking as beautiful as ever. Nice to see you without the bullet hole in your head. Kinda makes me want to put another one there.” At this Artemis simply gave him a giant grin, taking hold of her rifle and her katana as she starts rushing him. “Pretty words don’t get me going, bastard!!” The usually playful and joking sniper was raging mad as all of her attention settles on Redeye. “Been waiting for this!!!” She opens fire on the merc, uncaring of who was in the way as the serum begins to pump through her veins almost violently as it heightens up her reflexes and drowns her in adrenaline, the blade steady and awaiting for first blood shed. These three were the ones responsible for the death of those she once cared about! Redeye was the reason she was dead, the reason she was brought back simply to be used as a weapon all over again!!

BRAWL WITH THE ORDER

King Tyrant: (  https://youtu.be/sEz9fK_sW1U )

" Artemis NO! " He said watching her charge Redeye who seemed a bit too happy to see her coming at like a 'Demon. ' " Come to daddy baby..." He said opening his arms out for her. As Hiro tried to intercept he would have been attacked by Feltcher Steve. A kick aiming towards the top of his head, Hiro would have ducked backwards, only to uppercut Feltcher in mid air. A Vein erupted from the ground in atempts of impale the Commander. Only for a Cryobullet to hit the massive trunk before it'd soon explode. " Heh... You owe me one..." David said standing up, using the wall for support as his gun smoked. Hiro would have looked over to his friend only to get tackled through the wall by another massive Order Member. His muscle mass had been inhuman and he breathed heavily.

" HAHAHAH PUNY MAN! " The Breaker was the Order Members name as he beat Hiro into the wall punch after punch rocking the establishment with thunderous aftershock that caused the rook and the such to cave in by itself from the beasts powerful punches alone. He'd continue at this untill he'd thrown hiro across the room where he'd cough, shaking his head left to right before he rose up again to catch his footing.

Him and Feltcher stood side by side as they stared Lionheart down. " We must Obtain that shard within Blue heaven. But we will not allow you to enter after us. The Mayor of Kasaihana city can not have that shard..." Feltcher said pointing at Hiro who stood brushing himself off. " Hmph..." He said as he got down into his stance, surges of electricty flaring off of him as he readied himself. "...Come..."

RedEye would have pulled out his rifle firing a bullet spray of 30 bullets at Artemis before he swiftly reloaded again, tossing two gernades with a 360 spin in mid air before he landed on the ground. The bullet spray should and would have littered artemis up if she hadn't manuvered out of the way, and the explosives to accompany the attack if she dodged the gun fire or not would have set her off into a firey explosion. " HAHAHAH Come on baby... Show me how hard you've been wanting to see me again. Just dying for me to put my shells into you again..." He said smirking at Artemis from under his mask. If she would have managed to evade both of his attacks he would have charged at her. With 10 small sticky explosives on his finger tips! Rushing her he'd attempt to poke her all around her armoured suit. His fingers swiftly tapping at various places around her torso area. Once and if all 10 of the sticky explosives had made ther marks on her torso he would have kicked back with his sniper rifle as he blasted off 14 feet in the air, firing one 50 cal shot right in the middle of Artemis skull which if connected would have killed her instantly. All the while the explosives blowing her chest out at the same time for a kind of Qunintin tarentino styled over Kill!

Hiro would have clashed fists with the Golliath Order Member, smashing his face left to right before he punched him through a wall. Following up with this Feltcher steve attempted a take down move only for Hiro to shout at the top of his lungs causing massive vibrations to errupt his form that would have caught Feltcher in a stasis of shock just long enough for Hiro to headbutt him into the ground with the force of a frieght train. Blood erupting from the top of the Assassians head. But his victory wasnt left to fester for too long as Agent V sent a blast of vein like tree trunks to tackle him through the wall. Hiro's body was blasted through the roof only for a another tree trunk to hit him in the back smashing him back down into the ground, and THROUGH IT! His body was knocked through the earth by 20 feet alone, his armour cracking and shifting slightly under the pressure! " Shit! " He said blood spewing from his lips before he felt a shift in his power! And just like that, his body adapted to the pressure of the trunk and he was able to turn around and turn the tides back over! Hiro began to use his VIbro ability again as he'd cut himself all the way up to the surface, drilling his way all the way back up to the top before blasting out of the ground to uppercut Agent V right under her chin! Thus causing a spew of blood to errupt from her lips. However while he had been in the air from his Shoyuken styled uppercut, he'd hook his arm around her head to do a flying DDT, smashing her down head first into the ground causingher head to cave into the tile before he spun off into the air landing on his right knee, flicking his nose like bruce lee would. " Stay Down..."

THE BLUE DEMON

Gri: “Come to daddy, baby…” At this Artemis continued charging him as she purrs out mockingly. “Now that’s better.” Before blue hues narrow dangerously and begin to glow, her enhanced vision coming in to full effect as her own rifle opens a shower of rounds. Calculating every inch of movement his muscles make the tension and the angle even how he throws himself to predict the line of aim taken to her vital organs, all kill points. Each dose of ammunition is met with her own, the lead meeting with more led as the bullets stop each other and the ones that didn’t Artemis dug her heels in to the concrete of the base before shooting herself up in to the air with a pump of muscles, tossing forward to avoid the rest of the shots all together, the rattling noises of their rifles would shake the room and whatever currently in the way now was shredded into pieces all over!!

http://postimg.org/image/665kdvqdv/

The grenades come in to view and without hesitation, using the blunt edge of her sword she twists her body, the hilt of the katana held on to tightly with two hands, one wrapped around while the other taking hold under it and switching up the style with a toss of arms, rocking the grenade right into the other ascending it right towards their original owners all in a matter of a .7 mili second time frame before the clock ran out on the grenades designated eruption of 5 seconds. Landing in an almost graceful motion, she brings the katana back towards an offense stance, awaiting for his next move if he hadn’t been swallowed up in his own explosion. " HAHAHAH Come on baby... Show me how hard you've been wanting to see me again. Just dying for me to put my shells into you again..." At this the sniper twirled the hilt of the katana with a smooth motion of her wrist, laughing a little. “Mmm keep talking like that and I’ll wanna skull fuck you after you eat my bullets, daddy.” He charges her but with no guns on his person she assumed what his next form of attack could entail as there are no hidden knives pulled from his person within the next second and she throws her body back, tilting backwards as he is almost ontop of her and the two begin to do a dance of sorts, Artemis gliding to and fro to avoid the sticky bombs though he was quick on his feet, as soon as the sniper sees there is a chance he’d get one to stick, the knives attached to the suit would make themselves known, the springs reacting and releasing the blade from the area in which the small bomb would try to attach to as they come flying out only to have the bomb attach itself to the blade as it goes flying away from them, catching all other mini grenades in the same method of knives being released and flying the threat away to explode off in the distance not too far away. The suit had never been tested before this and there were to be some bugs of course as this was the outfit Darius had made the day they were attacked as the last knife doesn’t shoot and a sticky bomb attaches to her leg, eyes widening as it explodes and hits her full blast! Smoke erupts around her as the suit protects her with the 10 inch of Kevlar, ontop of her dense skin, she’d be able to absorb the blast though that didn’t mean her ears weren’t trembling something awful as she loses her footing a moment only to stumble back with clenched teeth though she is able to catch herself soon after, the smoke fading only to show he was no longer at ground level! The snipers head snaps up and she gazes at the merc with a sniper rifle aimed right for her. “Che…you don’t know how to use that thing.” Her Katana is held close to her side as she inhales….exhales….inhales….Recognizing the rifle and then the 50 cal bullet, feet spread apart to shoulder length, raising the fearsome blade above the short locks of blue as her eyes close, sonic hearing picking up the obvious sound of the trigger pulled, the massive round releasing and leaving its chamber…then the barrel before finally descending from the muzzle breaker. The serum pumped through the veins in her arms, enhancing the reaction time, her reflexes and agility as the blade moves in such precise motion moving with such speed it left an after image behind, the thin sharp blade slicing through the air awaiting for their intended target as the bottle necked bullet makes its way down towards the petite sniper but with knees bent her swing comes to a finish, chopping through the very tip before splitting the round straight through the middle!!

http://static.fjcdn.com/gifs/Dumbass+found+with+two+bullet+wounds_7b2e44_5108682.gif

Now in half, the force of kinetic energy separates the bullet and sends it soaring on either side of her form, lodging themselves deep within the floor as pieces of the ground shatter about. Her eyes snap open and she jumps up into the air, taking the opening he’d left from being so high in the open, bouncing towards him as she sends the blade straight through to him in a distraction, gloved hands wrapping around the grip of her pistols and turning them to aim if he’d dodged or averted the blade, opening fire on him with the automatic pistol, ‘RATATATATAT’ the sound echoes, emptying out both magazine on both before dropping them and planning on finishing this with a cocked elbowed, her fist curled tightly as she glares towards him before releasing the strike, eyes intensely glowing blue as she moves with the velocity of an actual demon!

http://postimg.org/image/vrhsdqdlf/

At the last moment, the fist shifts into a palm thrust that attempts to land right on the bridge of his nose as a flurry of wind picks up around the blow harsh enough to make his head implode on itself, making his nose cavity erupt blood and bone matter.

http://postimg.org/image/cg5femf6b/

Her fingers would try to gouge in to his eye sockets, using them to clamp on tight and change his momentum, shifting his head to snap backwards in an almighty thrust so he was now headed straight for the ground! Artemis now ontop she was not finished as she finished her combo of attack with her free arm, cocking this one back but you could bet your sweet ass THIS would be a fist! THIS would be the finishing blow!! “HHYYYAAAAA!!!!” The petite sniper puts everything she has towards this one last attempt as it goes sky rocketing right for his abdomen and plummets the knuckles in to his insides the blow would be earth shattering, sloshing his organs to mush while shattering his spine once his body would land on to the floor with such thunderous force a crater could be created around the fallen form as almost every bone is crippled to useless pieces that could pierce through any vital organs that could have survived her blast!

http://postimg.org/image/qnv439rv7/

If any of that had landed he’d be choking on his own blood with a hole through his stomach as the red liquid would fill up the crater he now lay in as she’d land on her feet, her own hand broken now but would be nothing the serum could not heal as she watches intently at his broken form with a frown….and then she curls her lips in to a grin. “Whos your daddy now, baby?”

Keyo The Cold: ( http://listenonrepeat.com/watch/?v=1tJb8yaDcNI#TRIGUN-Colorless_Sky ) " Artemis..." Hiro would have said as he watched her decimate RedEye, even with all of his skill, the suit and with her own battle prowess he was no match for the Blue Demon as she beat him into nothing. He watched in horror almost, that look of devilment in her eyes, that look of sheer evil. Had this been 'Blue Demon' ? He was starting to see the differnce in the two... Blood splurged out of his mask before he began to laugh and his eyes white from within his mask." Haha.." RedEye would have said as he began to shake, his body slipping into the voids of death slowly. "... Nothing... Was more Satisfying... then we took that little whores Life... The Things me and Breaker did to her before she did... All she did was cry about you. It was Hilarious... Hahah... HAHAHAHAHA! " He coughed up a splurge of blood again as he began to go into a light Seizure. "... " Hiro had a scowl on his face looking at his dead form before he turned to The other memebrs of the Order He had defeated. Agent V being the first to get up. " Redeye! " She would have said as she rushed over to his side. Feltcher Steve and The Breaker had both been knocked out still but her eyes shot over to Artemis with sheer and utter hatred. " You... Bitch..." She got ready to fight again before David shot a warning shot. " Dont you think about it..." He said to Agent V whom simply snarled. Hiro however hadnt taken his eyes off of Artemis. " ...." He walked over to his body, this RedEye. Examining it for himself. A revolting kill. "..." He looked back over at Artemis with a deadily scowl on his face. " When we get back to base... We need to talk..." Judging from how she murdered him. And the way they spoke he could tell there was history here. Hiro began to walk towards the Portal while Maru Jeitai soliders rushed inside along with the Medic team to recover David and keep The Order memebers down. " We have it from here sir! " Said one of the Maru Jeitai soliders to Hiro. But the Commander had been silence. Once Artemis had made it to the front of the Portal he would have turned his head to face her. "...You didnt... have to kill him. " Hiro said. " He could have been taken under custody. Brought to the Authorites. How could you... We dont act in such a Manner in the Maru Jeitai. So... you better explain yourself right now. " Hiro demanded as he crossed his arms, the second time he had taken this tone with her since they had met.

Gri: Redeye laughs…or he attempts at a laugh which sounded like a disgusting gurgle which was simply music to the snipers ears as she continued to grin even as he speaks about how they took May…what they did to her. “Embrace death with what little dignity you have left, Redeye.” She merely says with a more serious side as V comes struggling over to them to sit by his side before glaring at the petite soldier with deadly eyes. Artemis wasn’t planning on fighting her though, she’d gotten her fill of blood shed….she’d gotten her revenge as the dull aching pain on the back of her head had finally stopped. David shoots a warning shot and she merely turns away, walking past Hiro who hadn’t tore his gaze from her as she steps up to the entrance of the portal, flexing her broken fingers slowly as the serum began fixing it in a matter of minutes. The blonde assassin was avenged…all of her team mates were avenged including she herself. “When we get back to base….we need to talk.” Heh he wouldn’t change huh? But she suppose that was a good thing…he was what she’d need now more than ever. “You didn’t…have to kill him…” Blue eyes close as she stays silent for a moment, listening to the could have would have should have speech but she understands where he was coming from. “You told me…you and I are a lot alike. We both believe there is a monster inside of us. While we search for a cause…a purpose to fight, we struggle with our demons.” Hiro crosses his arms, wanting a full explanation as she stares at the glowing void, finding it oddly comforting. “Before I was killed I worked for the brotherhood…I was an assassin. I had a comrades who fought along side me and a lover. They were murdered by the order. I was taken out with a head shot by Redeye.” She gestures to the defeated mercenary as she continues. “Then they took my body and sold it to the infinites and I was brought back. Then I met you.” She turns to him with a soft smile. “That’s…been my entire life so far, my third one anyway…spent being used as a weapon. It’s all I know. So let me do my job…if you wish to kick me out then fine but do it after we finish this.” Her tone softens as she looks away. “Together.” She was a fool to believe she could simply be Blue…no she knew Blue demon would be a better fit now and always. She swipes the katana blade to get the blood to come flying off before placing it back in the sheath. “Blue! We found the suit you requested!! Are….you sure you wanna put this thing on??” She turned calmly to see if they had indeed found what she’d left on the infinites base…the Aoi Oni suit was impressive sure but it was only a piece of what she really wore along side it. The ball buster suit or BBC which you could imagine why she named it that. The BBC suit is an advanced armor plating system like suit, that can only be equipped by Artemis when she is inside of her Aoi Oni suit. This armor plating suit, is made of heavy duty Steel plating, half an inch thick, and solid. The armor plate is fully body, including misc. areas like the neck, the crotch, and the lower back, and spinal plating. The suit itself. The suit has reinforced pulley like contraptions at the joints, made with shock like pressure vales that allow Artemis to make enhanced jumps up to 60 feet without a running start, and 80 feet with one. The defensive capabilities are state of the art, and radiation proof, but nothing to over compensate her already heightened physical state. The main addition to this mechanized suit is the addition of the two Gatling gun/Ballistic Gauntlets that she rest her fist inside of. With a calm grin she steps away from the portal, watching the suit being brought in very carefully on a giant display of sorts with wheels to enable movement until she could place herself in it. She looks back over to Hiro, the grin fading only slightly. “For what it’s worth…you made me believe I could be more than a monster.”

Keyo The Cold: " Artemis..." Hiro would have said again, he wanted to lecture her. But she seemed so sure of herself. As if she had to do this. " I dont condone to vengence. But... " He sighed crossing his arms. ".... If you truly felt it was Justified. Then by all means. But we'll speak in this later... lets get a move on! "

Meanwhile: Inside of Blue Heaven...

( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mc2k6xX_lRo )

Inu, Kang, and Hades all made there way through this 'Blue Heaven. ' The skies had in deed been blue a fantasy world almost... but it was littered with Oni's. And with humans like Inu and Kang walking amongst them. All they wanted to do was take there bodies and go to the mortal world to reak havock. " This place... its infested with Demons. How could this be, this is not th  Realm of Dark Hadou where the Oni/Demon population reside. Nor is it Satan's Domain in Yomi, known as hell. " Inu said crossing his arms as hades stopped. " This world... is the proudct of a powerful demons imgination. You knew of him Kin. His name was Okami, it was his idea first to make this world. However the Onigami Zaito took it for himself during the First Civillizations decent. He knew that the Shinto gods wouldnt allow him to goto Fumei with the rest of there kind. So he cheated and made his own back door. Someone with the right power could collide fumei and earth from the inside with this portal alone. But that is not my goal. We seek my Father. The Shinto gods when they found about this place... Allowed it to become a Prison for powerful Oni's. Storing them in here so that they could never return to Fumei, or Earth. or anyworld..." Hades said to Inu and Kang. Before they made it to the end of a cliff to see a massive cave that touched high into the skies. " Father, it is Hades. Your son..." A Massive Hand errupted from the Cage in attempts to snatch up the Dark Lord but it was out of his reach. The Hand was the size of a skyscraper almost as the voice that came from the Caged mountain like cave shouted out his name. " HAAAAAAAAAADESSSSS.... " A lightning flash blasted from the roar of this titans mouth as he spat his name. " What do you want... BOY! You nor ZEUS... Never told me you would entrap me here once you got to power in the Sectors. YOU TRAITORS! ILL KILL YOU BOTH!" Hades stayed unschated as he stared at his father. " All Zeus idea. And Zeus is no longer in charge. I am. We are ready to take back our glory father against the Shinto gods. But first... we must destroy earth. It will be the only way to know if we are truly ready. " " EARTH!? I THOUGHT WE MEANT TO TAKE BOTH PLACES! " Cronous said as he shouted at Hades whom simply stared at his father with that dead expression... " Not anymore..."

Inu and Kang looked at one another. Inu turning his head to the right as he thought of Suzume and this period and his child Keiko. "...Destroying the world..." Inus said looking off to the right.

( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JGw8DWctAts )

Hiro would have entered the Portal forrest with a flip. " HUYA! " He said as he stood up to see a horde of Hungry Oni's standing ahead of him. "... Get out of my way..." He says as surges of electricty flare off of his body. He zipped forward in a streak of purple as hundreds of Oni's were blasted into the air before he landed back to whereever Artemis had been. " Do you know what these Creatures are Artemis? " He said to her as he watched them all stare them down. " There called Oni's. And this will be the only time your eyes will allow you to see them. They cant co-exist in our mortal plane unless there strong enough. But in here, all of the weak shits we can see. And there right here ready to Kill us. These are alot different then humans. We just have to find the shard... but watch your back in here. if these guys get the drop on you. It could mean the end of your life. Follow me... Fight through the Horde! " Hiro said as he took off, running forward fighting his way through! Punching left to right, bodies getting blasted into the Oni army as they were knocked through like bowling pins! Pulling a Vibro staff extender from the right side of his Commander suit as he began to shift from hand to hand to vibro staff combat, slicing through them like butter. He didnt kill Humans...but these? He'd make an exception to these. " KEEP MOVING! "

Hades and the Others would have turned to see the commotion not to far off, seeing Oni's humnoid and monster like getting knocked left and right from what sounded like a raging war. " Seems as though.. we have company..." Hades said smirking.

INTO BLUE HEAVEN

Gri: Artemis starts fitting in to the suit, adjusting herself as the system begins to go online, her eyes flashing blow to show the connection was just made with the mental link needed to control the gigantic gauntlets. A screen appears in front of her, one only she could see as it begins to scan every spectrum of the room, identifying any life forms and giving the stats of their strength, their ranks and their personal files. Darius really had gone all out when he created this thing…she was never able to thank him. A robotic noise whirls through the room as she lifts both massive arms, curling the titanium fingers to make sure they were functioning correctly. “We’ll speak on this later…” She just smiles a bit, knowing he could be stubborn. “You’re pretty sure of yourself that there’s gonna be a later to come back to.” The no longer petite sniper was now at his height as the two rush through the portal, the light swallowing them hole. Already a second in and there would be an army of creatures charging right for them but the Titan makes quick work of demolishing them in to the air with a fierce rocket strike! She tilts her head, blinking before gazing back at him. “Do you know what these creatures are, Artemis?” She spreads her feet shoulder width apart and gets in to a fearsome stance, grinning widely. “They’re just in the way.” The engines on both massive gauntlets turn on high speed, the sound of them working echoed. These ballistic gauntlets, cover up the entire forearm, and are quite bulky. These gauntlets weight approximately 400lbs of Tungsten Steel-Carbon alloy a piece, but because of the neural link between Artemis and the suit itself, she can throw them around with excellent ease, and for her physique, she can lift them without it if need be, but with low difficulty. They have special mechanical features, two specifically that allow Artemis the edge over extreme foes. One being a jet propulsion feature. On the rims of the arms, the side facing Artemis that is, are high powered mini jet propulsion engines, that will send her fist flying forward, with her attached to them, making for a strike propelled with air pressure. They can exert a physical strike of greater power from producing a jet of matter or energy in the opposite direction of the attack, traditionally using one's fist, although this can be used for other extremities. This also branches into the pulse like effects of the hits themselves from these gauntlets. They can create strikes or attacks that create a pulse-like wave that can cause massive impacts, push enemies back and destroy foundations of structures, even leave enemies paralyzed. They don’t nessicarily enhance her strength, but lifting large items with less leverage of having huge hands is applicable. The fingers are fully flexible, rotators allow the hands of the gauntlets to rotate 360, and give a staggering advantage in battle, often boasting the best offense is a giant pair of fist. And it very well was for this battle…Pushing off her feet, she goes soaring in to the horde, the right arm of the gauntlet cocked back to prepare for ultimate damage, the first Oni that meets with the curled fist is ripped in half as she goes through him! The shock wave alone sends a whole swarm of them in to the air as she rushes them. Soon enough they were in the middle as more and more showed up of all varying sizes and shapes but still the same…worthless demons. Throwing the weight of the guantlets around like nothing as the mechanical limbs strike to and fro in to the faces of the Onis coming towards her, using her military training to fight, kicking her foot up in an elegant swing, the sole of her foot sending a group tumbling into each other.

Blue demon hadn’t faltered in the carnage, already on a killing high from destroying Redeye, there was no end in sight for the sniper to cease in bloodshed.

Kin and Kodi: As they fought through the horde Hades would have grown impaitent turning around to face the duo once they had fought through the horde. " Sorry were late..." Hiro said as green blood dripped from his fist in slow drips from his fist. " You think just because you defeated a few Demons. Youve done something worthy of our time. " Hades said to Hiro who simply scowled at him. " Guys like you are annoying. Just like those stupid horsemen that talked so much. I'll show you there isnt much differnce from God and Man. "Hiro said to Hades whom scowled at The Commander. " I grow weary of these two mortals. " Inu and Kang had been ready to lunge for Hades but he would have halted them. " Allow my father to handle to this..." Hades said raising the shard up to view so so that they'd abosrb the very gates that had been binding His father. Cronus would have blasted through the very bars and shouted at the top of his lungs. He stood as high as any Titan. His body glowing with energy, unmeasured power! " ATLAST...I AM FREE! " He said as his voice exploded from his lungs in a booming shout that caused the world of Blue Heaven to shake. He steped forward and he was able to point out Hiro from a distance. " THESE ARE THE MORTALS WHOM I AM TO TEST MY POWER ON!? SO BE IT THEN! " He said as he pulled his right hand high into the sky, casting a shadow on Artemis and Hiro both. " Dear... god..." He would have said as he watched the elevated height of the fist rise above his head in a tower like fashion. And as it blasted itself down from the sky, the Titans fist if the two warriors hadnt been successful would have punched them BOTH! Into nonexistance.

" MOVE! " Hiro would have said as he attempted to Push Artemis out of the attacks range of and point of interest. If he had been successful she would have tossed herself off to the right to dodge Cronous only for him to fire a beam of energy from his eyes that would have scoruched the earth in attempts of frying them both. Hiro would have blasted into the air by 30 feet dodging his ray of energy only for Cronus to Punch Hiro into the earth with his massive left hand. And once he had pulled his fist back... Hiros body wouldnt have been visibale. He would have dug Hiro's body up from the rubble only to toss him into his mouth, eating the Commander whole. " HAHAHAH ONE DOWN..." Cronous said as he attempted to grap Artemis, scooping his massive hand across the truf into attempts of snatching her up and raising her high into the air. " No! " Inu would have shouted. " Dont... Uh... KIll that one. I need her... For something else later on. She owes me a favor. Shes been a doubled agent you see. Working for me and my cause this whole time. So Have your father realease her.  " Inu would have said to Hades while his eyes shifted from left to right. Hades, whom seemed weary of Inu's request looked to his father. " Crush her..." " What?! " Inu would have said in response to Hades. "Youve done your part mortal. I used you, you stupid fool... your inlove with her arent you. How pitiful..." Inu would have clenched his teeth as he would have watched Artemis get crushed by the massive beings hands. " HAHAHAHAHA Crush the little blue bird ! " Cronous said as he attempted to Grind Artemis bones into mush.

Gri: Artemis slides her boots to stop her momentum as Hades looks to them, both Hiro and the God exchanging words but her eyes were dead set on Inu, giving him a slow curl of lips in the form of a dangerous smile. “Allow my father to handle this…” Sharp eyes shift over to Hades as the shard is presented up high to release the mighty Titan from his prison. At this Artemis merely shuts her eyes and sighs inwardly. ‘Well fuck, had a feeling this wasn’t gonna end well…should have gotten laid a little bit longer.’ Well she had died twice already, fuck it!! The massive being makes the ground beneath them tremble just by moving alone!! “THESE ARE THE MORTALS I AM TO TEST MY POWER ON? SO BE IT!!!” “Hiro, my only regret was not smashing you more often.” She’d make that shit known and yes now was NOT the time to joke but like it’d make a hell of a difference now. The mighty Titan raises an arm up large enough it could block out the sun if there was one in this realm as she hears Hiro murmur something but the sniper wouldn’t stick around to see what it was as she used the rockets in the gauntlets to shoot her away out of harm in a 200mph speed, dodging the genormous fist that leveled the field as she didn’t slow down, the powerful beams of light coming from his eyes nearly close enough to singe her but she hadn’t faltered in running, thanks to the powerful gloves that gained speed. She glances behind her shoulder in time to see Hiro get laid the fuck out. “HIRO!!!” She stops the engines, throwing her arms out to slam into the ground, taking whatever material this realm was made of with her to slow down her momentum, shifting her body to rush back over to the Titan. “DON’T YOU DARE!!!” But her shouts are passed through uncaring ears as her own titan is devoured!! Just like that….no….She slows down in her running and watches with a wide eyed expression…why….this wasn’t happening…not again…..this couldn’t be happening again….Falling to her knees, the serum begins to pump through her veins to stop her from feeling heart ache, seeing it as a horrible weakness that could get her killed! But what was the point? She couldn’t defeat this powerful being…on top of fighting off Hades?? Cronos was a universal monster…she had no chance of defeating him and Hiro was taken from her. The Titan grabs on to her suit, her giant limbs raised up above his fingers though they were in no attempt to do anything as she stares blankly up at him, the air rushing through her with every foot he brought her closer to his face. It seemed…like she would be eaten as well. Fine… “NO!” Turning her head slowly, she watches Inu ask him not to kill her…why? She’d made her choice and they were enemies now but he was trying to save her in his own twisted way…. “You’re in love with her aren’t you? How pitiful…” At this she couldn’t help the small grin as she laughs weakly. “Aw Doggie…you’re a good boy.” She teased softly before the Titan began to squeeze and she winces, instantly feeling her suit crushing against her dense skin. This was the end perhaps? Too bad the serum wouldn’t allow her to give up, it wasn’t in her system to do so, Artemis herself couldn’t take her own life because of the serum not allowing her too so what made her think it would let her give up on purpose?? With a determination to get out of here, her need to survive gives her a second wind as she glares up at the titan, eyes glowing blue as the gauntlets turn on, the engines going on high power with mechanical features, two specifically that allow Artemis the edge over extreme foes. One being a jet propulsion feature. On the rims of the arms, the side facing Artemis that is, are high powered mini jet propulsion engines, that will send her fist flying forward, with her attached to them, making for a strike propelled with air pressure. They can exert a physical strike of greater power from producing a jet of matter or energy in the opposite direction of the attack, traditionally using one's fist, although this can be used for other extremities. This also branches into the pulse like effects of the hits themselves from these gauntlets. They can create strikes or attacks that create a pulse-like wave that can cause massive impacts, push enemies back and destroy foundations of structures,using them to raise above her head and with a war cry she sends them plummeting down on the massive hand currently holding her still, it was technology against legend and though she wasn’t looking to defeat him this way, she needed just enough space to free herself if this would be enough she would toss herself out from his grasp and go free falling back to the ground, turning one gauntlet towards Hades. “INU! RUN!” The main addition to this mechanized suit is the addition of the two Gatling gun/Ballistic Gauntlets that she rest her fist inside of, opening fire towards the group, The gun itself is loaded with enough ammo to take down at least 500 people.She wasn’t fighting to defeat…she was fighting to survive, to get far enough until she could figure a way to stop Hades, to stop Cronos…she didn’t know why she was even bothering but this right now? This was her purpose!!

Evil Hero: As Artemis continued to manuever her way out of the attacks he would have stood back and watched. A smirk breaking across his face as he watched Inu and Artemis attempt to escape. But Cornous wouldnt alow that as he fire a blast down at the two of them, the size of a house! Kang leaped infront of the blast and absorbed it only to fire it back at The Titan but it was no use as he simply blew it away. Inu would have fired his ice at the creatures leg in attempts to freeze him where he stood but it wouldnt do as Cronus simply stompped on Inu crushing him. Kang would have rushed up the Titans massive form before he was smacked away like a fly. Hades began to laugh as he titled his head over to Artemis. He'd snicker as he watched her standing alone, holding up the shard. " A-Artemis.... run..." Inu would have said as his body went limp and his his broke down into a solid white... signifying his death, along with Kang. No matter however... there souls Returning to The Artifical shard of Nirvana known as ' Soul Catcher. '

" The Shard of Greed... With this Shard,The Beholder will become the embodiment of greed and gain power from the greed in others or oneself. They can use greed as a power source to extend their life span or as a weapon and can become immune to death unless certain conditions are met. Users become stronger, faster, more durable, etc. by greed of oneself and others, possibly unlocking abilities related to the affinity and enhancing the existing powers. Some users may be able draw sustenance from the greed or even slow or stop aging. User can sense and manipulate the greed, covetousness and avarice of themselves, people, animals and other creatures, whether by increasing, decreasing, causing or otherwise channeling greed, even manifesting the emotional energy to physical level.  This is by far next to hatred the most dangerous Shard, considering it consumes you whole with greed. The power of this shard allows you to take and take, consume and consume untill you've plunged a world into utter destruction with your greed alone. It also doubles as the inter-dimisonal gate leading to ' Blue heaven '. It's so powerful its locked up within a orb so that when someone uses it they have to use it within the orb or the shard will consume the person whole. Its funny... how it feels like it has no effect on me. The Greed of a god i suppose..." Hades said turning to Artemis. " My Father will be the one who destryoes this planet girl. There is no use fighting. Tell me... is there anything you would like to see.... before i vanquish you into the very pitts of hell? " He said smiring at Artemis with the shard as it charged itself up, getting ready to fire at her.

KILLING THE TITAN OF ALL

Gri: Artemis lands on to the ground, watching Inu and Kang done away with in a matter of seconds and she winces slightly. “Que puta cosa…” She cursed in Spanish…it was rare the sniper ever spoke her native tongue but now was a good a time as any. “Ar-artemis…run…” Inu morphs into a light and she clenches her teeth though she knew he’d be resurrected now she was all alone…but it didn’t bother her, facing a challenge on her own. Hades holds up the shard, charging it up to attack her and she knew she couldn’t keep this up for much longer with Cronos close by as a back up in case the God missed by some hail Mary. With a grin, she raises the giant fists and curls the fingers into tight fists, ever a dangerous glint in the snipers eye. “There’s always a reason to fight…even till my last breath. I’ve died for lesser things, Hades. For once, I’m not so sour about this time…” She bangs her knuckles together, rotating her shoulders with ease. Cronos would destroy the entire planet but it wasn’t her responsibility to care! She could try and run away…but Hiro wouldn’t do that. He wouldn’t run and she knew deep down she couldn’t go back knowing these two wanted to cause destruction plus where would she return to? Earth would be no more if they succeed. He asks if there is anything she needs…but the super soldier just shifts her grin in to a small smile… “No, I don’t think there is.” What has this world ever fucking done for her? Spreading her feet shoulder width apart, the sound of the jets charging could be heard. Hiro smiling flashes in her mind and she scoffs with a bigger smile, shaking her head. “Pendejo…pero es mio.” The suit powers up and the gauntlets boom with a powerful blast, the two fists pointed towards Hades as they shoot out with incredible speed, Artemis still attached to them as she launches herself forward piercing blue hues narrowed with intent of getting one last strike in. The jets create propulsion of energy that only placed more power behind them as she cocks her elbow back though she wasn’t planning on the mecha arm landing a physical hit. Shooting the fist forward, it creates a pulse like effect within a 30 mile radius destructive enough it could knock back anything in its way as the ground begins to lift up on itself, creating a crater all around the matter effected as chunks and pieces of lands fly up in to the blue heaven skies. All of this of course was an attempt to stop the attack and hinder Hades even if briefly to try and take the shard from the God.

Evil Hero: ( ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Iof5pRAIZmw )Hades leaped into air in attempts of dodging her attack but it did stun him just hard enough that he'd drop the shard! It slipped from his hands and he would have went to dive forward until he felt the shift in the air, turning his head up to see his father in some form of distress as he watched the titan grip onto his chest and drop to his knees. By now Artemis would have picked up the shard as Hades turned his attention back over to his father shouting. " FATHER! GET UP RIGHT NOW! CANT YOU SEE IM A BIT PREOCUPIED DOWN HERE TO BE LOOKING AFTER YOU,YOU OLD FOOL!" Hades said as he stared at the middle of his fathers chest where his heard had been. " I... I...IT FEELS LIKE... INTENSE HEARTBURN..." Cornous would have said as he began to spill blood from his lips which would have created a stream of blood to the small mortals. Hiseyes starting to bleed as well as spots began to glow from the top of his head as well. " AAAAH.... AGGHHH! " And just like that an explosive of blood that errupted from Cronous heart would have coated the blue grass with blood as it dumped over them all. The Titans heart had exploded and there had Hiro been... standing in the middle of the exploded chest naked and bloody all over. " His stomach acids... burned my armour up. But...its not a big deal. " Hades eyes tensed as he watched Hiro's body glowing... he had been in Zeus mode... And in this mode it allowed his body to adapt to stress. So it placed him in a super Zeus mode like state almost... his body brimming a bright gold as he got down into a sprinters stance and slammed his fist into Hades jaw at the speed of light almost. Hiro had been vibrating so fast... he had been moving on non-human plains of existance as he moved, so that when his fist struck hades it was on par to his physiology, making the slug across the jaw one he'd always remember. Hades taking the hint that Hiro was at a current level of power that would be a threat to him, created a portal and escaped realizing his plans had been foiled.

( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Iof5pRAIZmw ) Hiro picked up a gauntlet and placed it around his right hand as he took the shard of Nirvana from Artemis. " Good job... I thought i was a goner back there..." Hiro said sighing as he powered down and looked over at The titan. "... Damn it. I killed him, listen this is what your gonna do. Back at the base, we both beat this thing alright? I dont need this over my head on what i did back here they wont let me live it down. " He said to Artemis as he slumped his shoulders. "... So you found your reason... to fight huh. " He said smiling at her. Reaching his hand out to her with a smile on his face. " Ready to go home? "He'd say as he nodded his head with a smile on his face.

Gri: The pulse had worked, stunning Hades one good time enough the God released the Shard right in to the massive hands as she slides to a stop. With a triumphant grin she begins to aim it right towards him that was until Cronos started to show signs of trouble and both sniper and God turn to look at him….no…it couldn’t be. A waterfall of blood comes splashing their way as Artemis shuts her eyes and lifts an arm up to keep as much of it off of her face before placing her gaze again only to see Hiro!! Her Titan had survived and he looked like a God all on his own! She watches with a shocked expression, the shard still held tightly in her grasp as she whispers. “What…the actual fuck….” A portal opens and she looks to her right, noticing Hades had taken his cowardly leave and she frowns, scoffing. “Figures…” Hiro approaches her after giving Hades one good right hook and takes the shard as the super soldier just grins widely at him. “Good job…thought I was a goner back there.” This guy was insane…she liked that about him though. When he tells her that they both defeated him she just laughs, waving it off. “Uh but I did all the work! While you were swimming in stomach juices I was keeping them busy! I mean I think I did the heavy lifting and kept them from going to Earth to destroy the entire planet. You should have seen me, I looked so fucking cool.” She bragged while flashing him a playful grin and then he teases her about finding a reason to fight to which she actually turned a little red and gazed away even as he reaches his hand out. She takes, placing it on her face and leaning in to it while speaking in a hushed tone, “Yeah well….I guess being a merc is fun and everything but…it wouldn’t be all that without you around…and I couldn’t do it if, you know, the earth was blown up and what not.” Releasing his hand she turns away and starts stomping back as if they didn’t just have a moment, clearing her throat. “So am I still in trouble for killing Redeye? Or can we just settle that between some really hot ‘we survived an end of the world’ sex??” She jokes while walking along side the Titan.

THE LOST ETHER...

Evil Hero: ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g_CpFdxooIg ) Hiro would have patted her on the head as he walked past her. Ignoring her comment completely like he always did. " Move it solider. " He said pinching her on the right side of her neck as he made his way past her. The Shard of Greed was soon returned to The Mayor of Kasaihana, and King of the Fire Flower Syndicate had there sources find a suitable place to hide it within Kasaihana city. Hiro and the others would have continued there ways as Mercs for hire, nothing had much changed. They had just been waiting to see how the others were fairing in the Sector Games now.

Hiro stood on top of the Helicarrier with a jean jacketand a white shirt under it, both flowing in the wind. He stared out at the sky as they drifted high above the clouds. " .... " Images of Ming appearing in his head as he watched them past over china. " ... So Im trying something new now Ming. " He said staring out at the sky of clouds. "... If it doesnt work out, thats fine too. Shes kind of a pretty cool friend. " He said with one hand on his hip. " Ive never been religious you know this. But... she reminds me alot of you. If that makes any since....As if you came back to me in your own way. Maybe thats just my selfish thinking... But at the end of the day. I know its not perfect, and im sure it wont be ever. Love cant be found on the battle field right? Thats what my father always told me..." He said as he looked back at Artemis at some point of where ever she had been on the hellicarrier. " right...? "

Meanwhile...

( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7m0IUJS-LOY ) " Inugami Zaito! " The red jump suit shinobi said as they all squated down to bow. Inu stood with glowing red eyes, he had abosrbed the Soul of Zaito and became the new Grandmaster of The Infinites. With Kang by his side. " At ease. " He would have said in his red shinboi armour, and long black hair. " They have arrived sir..." Inu nodded as he watched one women... cloaked in black as she smirked. " Speak... Sorcceror. " The female removed her cloak and her men all squated down as she did bowing, revealing herself to the Emperor. " I am known as... The Lost Ether. And I am the Destryoer... of the Amazons. "

I have something there, for someone like yourself. Something could give you even more power. You wish to rule this world yes? Then make me an ally. And you will see your goals come true. And to assure this agreement. I offer one of myown. " Her men would brought a girl, tied up bound and gagged on the floor infront of them.

"... Is that.." " Yes, the reincarnation. And if we awaken her power... we could control this world with an Ironfist. So what say you Inugami Zaito. Will you assist me? " Inu stared her down and simply smirked as he clapped his hands. " Give her anything she wants... our alliance starts today. " Inu said sitting down on his throne. She would have bowed her head smiling. " You will not... be dissappointed..."
