(GS3) EVENT FIELD: The First Dimension

[Lance Korilum]

  With the first wave of Reverse fighters dealt with, Cero almost relaxed.  However, the rain of debris halted any thoughts of that happening.  Stepping outside with Hana into Neu Gotem City, Cero looked in the direction of the explosion.  The black ring formed and two figures made their way out of the dust.  Whatever they were wearing left Cero in a state of confusion, just standing there while Hana ran up and punched one of them in the face.  Shrugging, Cero charged after the two pursuing an escaping Hana, ready to tackle one to the ground as soon as they were far enough away from the shop.

"Well that was... interesting." Sera actually chose not to participate in the fight at all, and instead watched the interaction between fighters and reversed people. It wasn't that Haruka didn't want to help, but due to Sera having any affect at all on his body made him nervous about Cardfighting right now, and Sera simply wanted to watch people of his own kindred do work.

Unfortunately, they did nothing of the sort. Weird when a main villain is actually walking around with the heroes. Maybe its because Haruka gives a slight diplomatic immunity to the host body, so he was given a bit more freedom among them. At Hana's signal, he followed behind the group, hopping off of the counter.

He yawned a bit, standing behind Hana as he she waved for them to go. Sera was of the first few to get on his feet, wanting to see more of the area himself.

[OverDrive]

The events that transpired truly did go by quickly, if anything the fights were basic, Neo Nectar all over the place. Now the issue came with the two fighters who were chasing after Hana, theoretically Tsubasa could easily tackle one if not both of them and take them out, but he chose to trust in Hana's plan and followed along, decreasing his speed to match everyone else's pace.

"Take care of yourself..." he said, those being the last words he gave to the Neu of this dimension.

"...What's Hana thinking..." he thought, as he continued running.

[Spectre Diamond]

He gave chase to the two reverse fighters as they went after Hana. Man these two are faster than I thought. The reverse must be giving them some steroids and look like they were to. Probably unlikely.

[Hope]

She was able to map out this version of the city with her powers and find a wide open area where they could do the kind of fighting that happened in Hoshiko if it came to it. The town was largely empty, with multiple PSY Shops acting as refuge centers for those who were escaping the reversed. The one they were in was just one among many, and they ran through a lot on the way here. There were no cars, and no pedestrians, but they had reached a large intersection, about 7 lanes big on each side.

Hana stood stopped running and showed the two her deck. That was the kind of fighting that they were after anyways. Reversing was their primary motive as she guessed. One was more heavily armored, wearing a black mask. The other had a shaved head. Other than those features, they looked just about the same in terms of body size and everything.

"Do you know who we are?..." the one with the black mask questioned them, having a red panel appear before him.
"Kings of the Underground. I'm the King of Hoshiko, while he is the King of Umano..." The bald one spoke.

Kings of the... Underground? Wait.. Hoshiko? Right, it could have been destroyed here too and...
If I passed in this dimension then the restoration project for Umano...

"We saw you guys fighting there and decided, hey. Why not deal with 'em ourselves? Hahah!" The one with black mask was prepared to fight, he readied himself to take his first challenger.

"Well do you know who we are!?... Well probably not.. but UGH! You guys are just acting like cliche thugs! Let's end this!" Hana shook her head and teased them.

[Lance Korilum]

  Coer ran after Hana through the city, paying little attention to how barren and empty it was.  Reverse had scared almost everyone into hiding, barely ever coming out, while they were running passed buildings and through alleys.

After reaching Hana and the thugs in the square, Cero prepared his deck.  He overheard them saying they were 'Kings of the Underground.'  Feeling rather insulted people like this would dare call themselves kings, he shouted at them, "I'll take both of you on, right here, right now!  Prepare to face the power of a true King, for I am Europe's King of Vanguard!!!"  And he said it.  His ego got the better of him and he said it.  Hopefully it was actually him that still held that title in this world. 

[Spectre Diamond]

"You call yourselves Kings!?" Hikaru caught up to them while over hearing the two announcing their ranks as a sign of authority. His ice cold aura flared up as the warm orange light erupted around his body. They weren't melding or even over lapping. The auras are in sync, one on each side of Hikaru. "As if I let someone as despicable as you two reign as king!"

He stood by Cero as his tranquil fury took over. They're not going to survive.

[OverDrive]

After reaching intersection where the running halted, Tsubasa leaped above both of the fighters' heads and landed next to Hana, taking out his deck just in case and standing ready.

"It does not matter who you guys are....let's just get this over with." he said, as a sort of signal to Cero and Hikaru, clearly these opponents were theirs for the taking.

"Good Luck you two...we'll be ready if you need us." he thought.

[Jello]

"Hoh, tough guys." Sera was unbelievably ballsy, but only because he sort of had the right too. With the knowledge base and ability to maneuver in combat with units on Cray, people really weren't much. However Haruka was currently the one with bodily control and had less than no knowledge on combat mechanics as of now. He was more or less interested in seeing what these guys had to offer in terms of fight skills.

He grinned, arching his eyebrows, standing in the back of the crowd. Despite Rebirth being a worthy adversary in a fight, Haruka was completely objecting the idea and therefore was out of the running for fighters. He despised using a unit, despite it being his own avatar, but with control of Reverse energy. Sort of sick or twisted in a sense. He wasn't about that.

[Lance Korilum]

  The king of Umano took Cero's challenge.  When they heard Cero say who he was, they laughed.  At him.  Apparently, in this universe, Cero had fallen into a ten-year long coma during the events that destroyed Hoshiko.  The false king took the first turn, and when Cero took his turn, claimed that Cero's attacks were nothing.  In response to this, Cero's aura flared up, beginning to cause damage to the surrounding area.  The other King responded to Cero's rage by attempting to pummel him into the ground with rush after rush, but Cero was able to take each one and fight back just as hard. 

  When it finally came time for the Grade Threes to clash, it was Dark Band against Dragonic Descendant.  Although Descendant's booster was Locked away repeatedly, the two units clashed with extreme ferocity.  Blows were repeatedly exchanged, Cero even being forced to use his Limit Break more than once, something that should've devastated his defenses.  As Dark Band's sword clashed with Descendant's, the shockwaves produced threatened to tear apart the very ground beneath the fighters. 

  The false king pushed Cero to the very edge, on 5 damage with barely anything left in hand and only a single rear-guard.  Cero's aura exploded as he went all in, using Descendant's Especial Counterblast in combo with his limit break.  Although his Vanguard had been unable to break through, Cero managed to pull a double critical which was given to his Rear-guard, and Cero charged at the fighter as his Rear-guard Descendant charged at Dark Band one final time.  Gathering energy, Cero punched the masked king in the face as Descendant's sword ripped through Dark Band, slamming it into a nearby building as it faded away.  The mask of the man shattered as the Reverse energy left him and he also was sent flying into the same building, just underneath the vanishing Dark Band.
 
  "You dishonor the very word King, your weakness insults me!"  Cero's rage built up as his aura exploded.  He raised his hand towards the false king, and was just about ready to eradicate him from existence.

[Hope]

King against King, who would win?

Well the answer was obvious. A King.

Sadly enough for the crew, the bigger and much more burly King one over their dimension's Underground King. Despite Hikaru's attempts to come back and stand again, his deck wasn't working with him and in the end, Leopald's fangs tore through Asura Kaiser. The punishment had come upon him as the reverse energy began to approach him in large numbers, taking aim to surround Hikaru and return him to the side of the void once more.

The bald man laughed.

"I guess you should use it here," Meer said.
"You did work hard to make it!" Nociel added.

The Princess hopped up in front of the King and took the reverse energy head on. The function of her "reevasu" school uniform as well as her Void-fileld bracelet kicked in, enabling her to redirect the reverse away, but she would have to defeat the controller in time before her hold on it wears off.

"Grovel! Pay! That's the punishment for resisting m-..." The bald man paused.
"N O P E !" Hana directly approached him with her own panel and deck. The fight began.


"Minette!" Hana commanded as an egg of light cracked open and its yolk exploded on Leopald. The big man's nature may be great, but Hana's Great Nature was greater.
"HOW!? HOW COULD YOU DEFEAT MY REVERSE GREAT NATURE!?" He averted his eyes from the brilliant light show.
"Glory to the egg sage!"

The Princess charged a quick beam of light and shot it from her fingers, piercing through the man and extracting the reverse energy from him. With that, the two thugs were left flying into the same building and comically bumping into each other within a puff of smoke. Poof.

After the simultaneous fights, Hana and Cero were victorious. Hikaru was safe and they only caused minimal damage.

Minimal.

"Is everyone alright?" Hana's hair blew with the wind of the barren land, as she adjusted her hat and checked on everyone's condition.

[Jello]

He coughed a bit, laying on his back. Minimal was only a way to start explaining it. Some of that wind actually nearly blew Haruka off his feet and off to some far away land. Luckily Sera knew the basics of laying down and keeping his body tightly packed onto the Earth. He arose, dust all in his hair and covering his face.

"Good stuff guys. Glad we aren't dead or worse, Reversed." Sera made a cat face. What a troll.

"But seriously, is anyone hurt? I think I saw a few animals go flying by..."

He stood up, dusting himself off and adjusting his jacket. He also did a dog shake to get the dust out of his hair. With a deep breath, he made a quick survey of the area to make sure nobody else was particularly injured. Safety of others was trivial to Sera, but Haruka was a worrywart so this was mostly his doing.

[OverDrive]

The cardfights were beyond interesting, Cero let the clouds shout and Hikaru put up a very strong offense even though his deck was going against him. Nevertheless, Hana stopped Hikaru from suffering to the reverse once again, thankfully she had the power of....magic eggs? Minette was something to watch out for.

"...Well at least that was resolved well..hmm? what's this." he said, leaning down to pick a up a newspaper.

-gasp-

"................No......" he muttered, as he let go of the paper and let it to fly off within the destruction that was caused by the fights.

"Even in another dimension...." he thought.

He shook his head and started walking towards Hana, still sort of traumatized by what he saw, but he did not want to stray from the mission at hand, "...What's our next move?"

[Hope]

Hana looked over at the building, the two men knocked out but looking better without the troublesome reverse about them.

"Let's go report to Neu. At least we've landed a connection here. Now we just gotta find where to go!" She raised her fist. Strong. Enthusiastic.

Also noticing Tsubasa's face. Not that he made any expression in particular that alarmed her. Maybe he did. Idol life makes someone good at reading the crowd and she sure read him like a book. Now may not be the right time to ask, but she took note of his feelings as she walked back towards the direction of the shop in which they came from. This is important to say as they ran into as many PSY Shops here as Hana ran into NcVonalds in New York.

"The seed here is the source of the power yet I don't expect it to be easy to find, but we got to! It's the one that the Rift is trying to use against us!..."

That is if her speculations are right. Her head was starting to hurt.

[Nobody]

Back at the PSY-Shop alongside Neu was Shiki, rocking his signature school uniform as he fought off the Reverse away from the shop, and behind him was standing Cosmo Lord, leader of the Death Army aiding him fight after fight. And eventually they stopped coming causing Cosmo Lord to disappear.

Shiki clapped his hands together and dusted himself off from imaginary dust, dude probably just wanted to look cool or something.

"Well there's that, this sure was hell on my knees. Well not realyl but it looked like a cool thing to say."
