'Eliana was watching from the TV in the main room in the Absconders' base. She stood up, face pale with fear and disbelief, Thad next to her slowly approaching, placing his hand on her shoulder.'

Eliana: No... Dominic's back, he's there...what has he gotten himself into?

Thad: Looks like he just got eaten by that thing.

Eliana: No! He's still alive, we should go help him! Should we?

Thad: How can you help, by battling a demon?

Eliana: We have to try something!

Suddenly Antonia ran into the main room, obviously watched the video.

Antonia: Guys! Bernedicci was that Vanquish guy you always hung out with! HE'S DEAD, HE TRIED FIGHTING THE ALIENS AND HE'S DEAD!

Haruto walked into the main room and sat down on the couch, visibly shaking.

Haruto: Dom just... He's... He raised his shaking hands to his head, resting his head on them There's no way he can be dead...

Eliana: He's not dead! He can't be!

Antonia goes to the screen room.

Antonia: Guys? There's an old NASA shuttle that just crashed near Bernedicci's place, who'll check it out?

Eliana: I don't think that's relevant right now!

Thad: Eliana, calm down. It might be related to this, and if Dom isn't dead as you say, we should check this out first.

Antonia: An alien is coming out of it. As everyone who was stabled saw, it was Ripper coming out of it a bit dazed.

Eliana: T-that's the same alien that attacked him before...I think. There's some correlation behind this, I'm going. You guys coming?

Antonia: I'm in, is Thad, Asks Thad that's your name right? Switches back to Eliana Is he coming?

Thad: Of course I am. She's not going in that place alone, especially with some crazy alien.

Antonia: Alright, let's go now...

'As they travelled to Dominic's house they saw more emerged from the shuttle, Thad could recognise them as the past hosts he saw, they were pretty much arguing. Haruto caught up to the group before they left, going along with them to see the arguing phantoms of the hosts.'

Haruto: What is this...?

Thad: Those...are the past hosts of Dominic's Vanquish armour I'm guessing. I made him tell me about that.

Eliana: Maybe they know about what just happened. Hey, you guys, past hosts or whatever!

They all looked at their direction.

Mifune: You, you're Eliana Rosenheim...

Max: See that guys, we're in Los Angeles.

Thad: She is. You guys know Dominic, why are you with that alien that kidnapped him?

Haruto: Who... are you? Haruto asked Mifune, noticing that the latter was most definitely of Japanese origin

Mifune: I am Mifune Mori, we as Thaddeus said are the past hosts of The Vanquish, why we are with Ripper is because he defected when we went to Arizona, we were captured by S.H.I.E.L.D and needed their help to fight, even now they are up in orbit destroying Hivemind ships, but one remains and it is coming.

Eliana: A little bad history with defecteds, so pardon if we have issues trusting you guys. Thad looks nervously at her. But you said one is coming? And do you know anything about that broadcast?

Max: Chernabog, the one who broadcasted is in that ship, he has Dominic assimilated...We don't know how long he had.

Eliana: Assimilated... Then we can get him back, right? He's not dead.

Billy: We could, but it depends on the condition of his mind, when he left all of you he was practically broken, damaged, we were all keeping him from destruction, but knowing him and what he has to lose he's probably fighting on...

Ripper: He gets out of the shuttle where he was resting a bit, startling Haruto and Eliana a bit due to their experiences with him He has two days left, maybe less, judging by Chernabog's course he is heading here to Los Angeles, he wants to destroy everything just to, as you Humans say, "Flex power"...

Eliana: Oh that bastard is dead. We're getting Dominic back.

Thad: Don't forget what he has done...

Eliana: I said we're getting him back.

Ripper: Ms. Rosenheim, we all will, but for his sake, I believe Bernedicci would want you to mentally prepare yourself, you see Chernabog's broadcast isn't just a message, but it was also an attempt to demoralize you all, he knows all who Dominic knows and loves. Even the Past Hosts were silent in agreement.

Eliana: Demoralised or not, I'm ready for Chernabog. Just need the Psychic Energy.

At the Absconders base
Ripper, The Past Hosts and The Absconders that were available were figuring out a plan for the battle that's coming.

Ripper: Now, Chernabog's body composes not only of nanites, but also Adamantium and a brain dead symbiote. Does anyone have suggestions to bypass this durability?

Eliana: Adamantium? That can't be destroyed, right? How do we deal with that?

Haruto: I have my restoration ability. Since that power restores things to a previous point in the object's history, I can restore the adamantium to the point where it was still in its liquid state, before it was set in its current condition. Now there's the problem of getting close to him, but stopping time might allow me to pull that off. Then, there's the brain-dead symbiote.

Hayabusa: Us Past hosts, and any other muscle we can spare will buy you much time, now rescuing Dominic, telepaths.

Eliana: Dominic is still inside him. So we're not going to destroy him straight away, we need to get Dom out first.

Max: Makes me question what you'll do once he's out...

Trey enters through the main room, looks concerned and serious about the situation.

Trey: I heard it all and I can pull him out. Eliana, you still are a little unstable to get him out yourself. So you can help distract him while I reach and try to find Dom. I hope he isn't dead yet though...

Eliana: Oh I'm going after it head on, I'll break him apart.

Thad: I can help you with that. To make sure you don't get yourself killed.

Brotok: Be careful, at this point he can cover all his directions except on top.

Gumi: So beware of left limbs, right limbs, eyes, and tail.

Izzy: If his troops attack populated areas some of us will need to protect Civies.

Eliana: Maybe Antonia and Alyna can do that, Giorno too if he's available? She asks Haruto.

Haruto: He might be able to make it if he isn't busy, but I can't guarantee he'll be there. Worst comes to worst, the Hanged Man card lets me split up into two bodies. I can send one half to restore the adamantium to liquid while the other helps the civilians.

Eliana: Oh, that works too. So that's civilians taken care of, and Chernabog himself, including rescuing Dominic. He has an army, right? Hopefully they don't overwhelm us.

Mifune: Now that these are all considered, prepare yourselves, rest if you wish even...

Haruto: Mifune-san, could I request a training session with you? I wish to hone my skills before we face Chernabog, make sure I can keep my mind focused on the fight.

Mifune: Very well, Hayabusa...

Hayabusa: Hai.

'As they walked off he motioned Haruto to follow. Haruto follows the two into a training room in the base. By pressing a button on the wall, the room began a combat simulation of the city.'

Haruto: Yoshi. Ikuze. Haruto equips his Star armor, summoning the longsword from his Fool armor and taking up an Iaido stance.

Mifune: I've seen Dominic's memories of you, the way you fight Pulls out sword as Haruto watched it encompass itself in a green fiery aura as Mifune goes into a stance as well Where did you learn how to fight like that?

Haruto: A lot of anime and self-training. Hajime! Haruto rushed at Mifune with his sword by his side, slicing upward at him

Mifune spinned to the left, using the momentum to hit him in the back using the end of the handle, pushing Haruto forward a bit, Mifune jumped upwards and was coming down on Haruto with a downward slash, and he noticed Haruto did block it.

Mifune: Very impressive, I take it you want to know more about my sword?

Haruto: It must be a very powerful blade. I would very much like to know about your blade, if that's okay with you. Haruto pushed Mifune back before slashing at him horizontally, discarding the blade before switching to his hand-to-hand fighting style and unleashing a punching barrage on Mifune

Mifune quickly blocked each one, but he could tell, that there was more than two punches with each one he blocked, when he push-kicked Haruto his arms slightly started shaking due to some of the trauma inflicted.

Mifune: You see the past host Gumi was once on Asgard, helping Asgardians with traitors, at some point he had to send a large chunk of their metal, Uru, at a very powerful individual, after years it finally reached on our planet, its travels molded it into a smaller shape, and it crashed near my village, blacksmiths decided to use it forge a sword, by technicality it was there when I was born, grew with me til I became Samurai. Though it had many wielders I was the last to wield it as all fighters of my village died to an attack of shapeshifting monsters, your generation called them Skrulls. After a long journey I met the Head Lord of Hivemind XI, Genji.

Haruto: Uru? Asgardians? The Skrull? A Hivemind? Are you saying your blade was forged from a metal from beyond our world? Haruto decided to halt his attacks so that Mifune could answer his questions.

Mifune: Yes, it was even a bit magical after monks had it for a bit, it grew sharper depending on the user's resolve, the moment I was given the Vanquish, Genji told me to put the nanites all over the sword, that's when it truly peaked in potential. He held his hand out to the sword and it flew back to his hand and turned into a Naginata, then back again into a Katana And No, it is not like Thor's Mjolnir, these are just one of the many abilities I gained, but in Ripper's hall of Vanquish my skill and sword are the reasons why he put me there, and why I am a memory in the Vanquish.

Haruto: Is that so? Interesting... The user's resolve is what gives the blade its incredible power? Perhaps... if we used this ability in our fight against Chernabog, we could pass the sword from member to member, charge it with all our resolves, and slay him after extracting Dom and weakening the adamantium and symbiote reinforcements... Do you think that would work, Mifune-san?

Mifune: Hm, it could, but in order to maintain all that power the blade would need to be held by the members who will wield it. In fact Ripper once suggested it could theoretically carve electrons of an object depending on the user.

Haruto: Then perhaps, we should have regroup with the rest and have them hold the blade so that it can recognize them. After we've told them about this addition to the plan and if they approve of it.

Mifune: You would make a fine wielder of this blade, Haruto-kun.

Haruto: Arigato gozaimasu. He bows to Mifune in respect before walking to the main room

Meanwhile Max stood at the center of the main room.

Max: So who wants to learn what we were all up to huh?

Eliana: What?

Max: Well Dominic had a pretty distinct reason why he couldn't come back soon...

Eliana: Can you just tell us? I'm not in the mood.

Izzy: We were literally on a submergable facility on the literal other side of the world, and of course the stakes increased.

Eliana: So? Dominic still left without even explaining it to me, and I don't need to hear it from his imaginary friends. He can tell me when I see him. She leaves the room.

Izzy: Mumbling to herself a bit Imaginary friends!?

Brotok: Here we go...

Gumi: Okay who you bettin' on.

Brotok: Rosenheim.

Gumi: Izzy.

They watched as Izzy caught up to Eliana as they watched.

Izzy: First off, we are not imaginary, that's a low blow! And secondly the real reason why Dominic left is because not only did mental shocks from Hivemind contacts got to him to the point of paranoia, but because this close friend you claim helps damaged his mind to irrationality!

Eliana: She stares at her seriously, then Thad arrives and stands between them.

Thad: Leave us alone. Eliana doesn't need this crap from you. Let's go, Eliana. They leave the room, Thad's expression showing that they do not wish to be followed.

The next day...
'The past hosts were waiting for everyone to be ready. Antonia was getting her suit in check as she talked with Alyna.'

Antonia: They think we have the easiest job, we're literally guiding Sheeple, as in what do you think Alyna?

Alyna: Well. 'She looked in the mirror as she looked at her outfit, which consisted of loose clothes such as sweatpants, slip on shoes, and a hoodie. 'It actually might be really hard since it's just us protecting the city from troops and protecting civilians.

Antonia: Hey that Izzy chic has our back, and besides we work as well as gasoline and a lighter.

Alyna: Very well. We will do our best.

Eliana and Thad enter the room talking.

Eliana: Come on, it's your birthday. Are you sure you don't want to celebrate it?

Thad: Yes I'm sure. I'm 20 now, I've had enough birthdays.

Eliana: Pfft. Fine. What about a costume?

Thad: What?

Eliana: Don't you want to wear a super suit or something? When helping us fight?

Thad: I'm not an official superhero. Why would I need a costume?

Eliana: Well, you should think about becoming one. Makes the superhero business a lot more fun.

Thad: Speaking of costumes, you changed the one I designed for you, why?

Eliana: It got old, I wanted something new. Sorry.

Thad: Very well. So your plan of attack is to just charge at Chernabog?

Eliana: It's a direct distraction, and allows me to do what Myron taught me.

Thad: Where is that old fool anyway?

Eliana: I don't know, he appears and leaves whenever he wants.

Thad: Makes him unpredictable. Watch out for him.

Eliana: Fine whatever. Anyway guys, waiting for Haruto then we can go. Jason said he'll meet us there.

Haruto and Giorno walked into the room in their Strength armors.

Giorno: Managed to get all the schoolwork taken care of prior to this, though I did have to cancel a date with this one girl and move it to a later time.

Haruto: Girl troubles, hm?

Giorno: Not the main point. What's my role again?

Haruto: Protect civilians. Get them out of harm's way and heal them up with the Restore ability.

Giorno: You'll be using the Restore ability to do what, again?

Haruto: Gonna turn adamantium back into its liquid before it was set. Take down defenses and whatnot.

Giorno: Best of luck, Haruto.

Haruto: Mm. Don't wear yourself out, Giorno.

'Trey finishes talking to Antonia then walks to the computer room, to see all of the monitors observing Chernabog. He walks back out and says to everyone in a nervous, a bit anxious voice'

Trey: Ready everyone? We gotta go now.

'As they got to the main city where Hivemind ships were descending on, they saw tanks with mechanical legs, hover crafts, and more Hivemind soldiers. In the center of the city Chernabog was there coordinating their attacks.'

Antonia: So guys, we really ready for this?

Ripper: Child you have an easy job, us however.

Trey: Okay. Let's go, guys, go take on Chern and draw his attention. A few explosions are heard from around the city and lots of screams after that, and Alyna quickly turns her head, looks at everyone, nods and takes off running down the street.

Ripper: CHARGE! He was leading the attack on Chernabog, as said monster was flying at high speeds toward them, clashing with Mifune, Ripper and Hayabusa, creating a slight shockwave.

Eliana: Okay, time to avenge Dominic. 'She appeared wearing her super suit alongside Thaddeus. She absorbs a car's Emerald energy and creates rocket boots and a mini jetpack on her body, then flies at Chernabog, using Sapphire to rip a lamp post from the ground and holds it, charging at him and stabbing Chernabog with it, then swings it at him several times until it breaks.'

Chernabog: You're her aren't you? He shot out some energy from his hand knocking her away a bit, as he grinned I'll enjoy making him watch! He then flew to Eliana with a sword.

Eliana: I'll rip Dominic out of you if I have to! 'She held her arms up, disintegrating a small building into Emerald energy and forms a greatsword, as she glows purple, increasing her strength, stamina and agility. She slashes it at Chernabog, colliding their weapons, then parries him and flies behind him, lunging the sword into his back.'

'Mifune helped, but before they can land a significant blow, he teleported out of the way, and was then making a huge energy ball, readying it to charge, and launch. Earl however distracted him, as Chernabog got a bit annoyed and went along stabbing him in the gut. '

'Eliana generated a large fireball and shot it at Chernabog, with no effect, except working as a distraction. Before he could react to her, Thad jumped up high at them at inhuman speeds, kicking Chernabog in the gut and sending him flying across several blocks. Chernabog landed, and before he could even get up, Jason jumped out from a building window beside him, and put Chernabog in a headlock, pulling him to the ground with immense strength and smashing his face into the concrete. He then continued to punch Chernabog with blows that shook them both, then turned into a shadow tiger and bit his jugular, pulling Chernabog into a death grip and clawed at him rapidly before returning to human form.'

Jason: Surprise, tw*t.

Chernabog: A fight of demons ey? He started cockily walking to Jason using his eye blasts on him, and it was obvious it was really painful, he was even using his third eye in the mix as well, but this left Chernabog open.

Jason: Fought bigger demons than you. 'Jason assumes his demon form, pale skin, black eyes, dead appearance etc. He walks up to Chernabog looking unharmed, as his pain receptors were dead anyway. His skin was burning away but he continued anyway, until he reached Chernabog. He then grabbed him, then spread darkness over his body and solidified the grip. He pulled Chernabog to the ground with the dark grip, pinning him to the floor temporarily, then stomped his face in, cracking the concrete beneath it.'

Eliana: She, Haruto and Thad arrived. Good, now try to remove his symbiote. It's dead.

Jason: Alright. Should be easy. 'He raises his hand, as the symbiote "screeches" and moves aggressively, as Jason resurrected it. He then places his hand on the symbiote, as it detaches from Chernabog and curls around Jason's arm.' So now I have a zombie Klyntar on me? Do I destroy it? How?

Eliana: Hold onto it for a sec. Don't bond with it.

Jason: Eh, demon prevents that anyway.

Eliana: Haruto, his adamantium? Chernabog breaks free then blasts them all away. Sh*t!! Haruto, try to stop him!

Haruto: On it! Hanged Man!! His body splits into two people, the effects of the Hanged Man form kicking in despite him not manually switching.

Haruto L: I'll get the others! You work on fighting Chernabog!

Haruto R: Right! This half glows faintly before picking up a rock and making a fist out of his other hand as if preparing to detonate something. Let's get your attention! He throws the rock as hard and fast as possible, sending it straight into Chernabog's outer layer before detonating it to get his attention Oi! Come and get some!! The other half rushed off to find Mifune and Hayabusa, switching into his Strength armor while the right half remained in Hanged Man.

Haruto L: Mifune-san, Hayabusa-san. Let's take Chernabog on together! He summoned the Star Slasher and held it in blade mode, ready to fight.

'Both Mifune and Hayabusa nods, as they charge in, Hayabusa made a Chakaram (The Giant shuriken thing), as he threw it at Chernabog it turned into many raining down on him, as Chernabog blocked each, Mifune imbued his sword with electricity, as each deadly slash at least hurt him, unknown if damaged, due to his Adamantium layer, as he finally grabbed the sword trying to push him back. Hayabusa was helping by striking weak point and using some magic to hold him.'

'The half that was distracting Chernabog prior to their attacks switched into the Strength Armor as his other half switched into the Star Armor. The Star half began slashing away at Chernabog's flesh, trying to expose the adamantium for the Strength half to make contact with.'

Mifune was suddenly kicked away by Chernabog, and dropped his sword, Hayabusa started defending Mifune using some shurikens, he then created a dragon construct which started constricting Chernabog as it breathe out fire on him a bit.

'Thad allows Eliana to absorb Sapphire energy from him, then she glows blue and jumps to Chernabog, shooting blue energy blasts at his head, giving him a lethal headache and vibrating his skull. Thaddeus then runs past her and places his hand over Chernabog's forehead, and sends a powerful telekinetic blast rattling through his head, damaging his brain and putting him into a temporary coma.'

Thad: Eliana let's get out of here before he wakes up again, help civilians.

Eliana: No, I want to see Trey get Dominic out.

'Trey is seen dashing to them in his hero costume, and he comes to a stop at Chernabog. He looks around at everyone and at the environment with all the troops attacking. Lots of the troops once attacking the civilians see that their leader is down and start coming to Chernabog's rescue, shooting their weapons at them.'

Trey: Guys I won't be able to do this if I'm constantly getting shot at! Please defend me.

'That's when Alyna joins the group and jumps on one of the troops that are flying down and she stabs them with a golden dagger made by her Oceanus Magic. She then Flash-steps along the enemies and slashes at their backs and throats in a quick succession, landing on the ground beside everyone and looking up to see troops raining from the sky. More troops begin to soar at them.'

Trey: Argh, Haruto, you know what to do while I'm in there. 'Trey taps Chernabog's mind with his fingers then taps his own head as a thin dark blue vapor-like energy connects their brains. Nobody can see the energy except Trey and Haruto due to it being cosmic energy. Trey then begins to levitate in the air with his legs crossed and closes his eyes.' Let's do this.

'The area around Trey gets dark as Trey's Astral body zooms inside of Chernabog's mind. This is Trey's second time ever Astral Projecting, due to the sheer amount of concentration required for it, but he manages to not pass out due to all the psychic energy he is using. His body stops zooming in the middle of Chernabog's mind as it looks like a vortex of information and dark red energy. There seems to be lots of thoughts and nanites flowing around in his brain which makes Trey very confused.'

Trey: Maybe if I locked on to Dominic's psychic energy, which I should be able to recognize.

'Trey's astral form floats forward and then all around as he tries to get a feel for it. He then closes his eyes as he remembers Dom's psychic energy and manages to lock on to an obvious thread of it. He feels nanites clinging along the thread of psychic energy and Trey pulls himself to it. When Trey starts traveling on to Dom's psychic energy, the surroundings looks like he's traveling through hyperspace and this makes Trey closes his eyes due to all the information he's seeing and processing. He feels his astral body finally come to stop and when he opens his eyes he sees a mansion surrounded by a thin green layered energy bubble. The mansion is really far away as it's floating in a vortex of dark red energy filled with lightning (which are electrical impulses, but it looks like lightning flashing around in the mind.)'

Trey: ''Woah, that must be Dominic's mind... It's the only thing that stands out in Chernabog's mind.''

'Trey flies towards that green energy bubble and he places his hands on the thin green bubble surrounding the mansion. He pushes past it easily, and shrugs as he floats down onto the front lawn of the mansion. He looks at the huge mansion in front of him and walks to the entrance. After he enters the mansion, he sees the inside of it, which looks expensive and very filled to the brim with items and things that mansions are filled with. Lol. He walks around slowly looking for Dominic, but obviously cautious because Trey feels that this could be a trap.'

Trey: ''Hello!? Is anyone here?? Dominic?? He keeps searching and yelling for Dominic. Dom? Are you here? He looks into a room that seem to be filled with things that Dominic likes, and then he sees a picture of Eliana on the wall.   Woah... Dominic?  He enters the room slowly and sees a body sitting with his back to Trey.''

Dominic: ''Hallucination, or Memory Suddenly a schreechful roar was heard, as the door was closed behind Trey and Dominic aimed a gun at him, he sees him keeping his mind as a fight for survival You from my memories, or are you some construct of Chernabog!? '''His voice sounded a bit weak, weak from the nightmare, the fears, what happebed especially, as the t.v. in that room played compilations of moments of the Absconders.   '

Trey: ''Dom, don't worry. It's me, Trey, I'm not a memory. I'm from the real world and I came to get you out of this monster's mind. What happened to you?'' He sounded a bit worried and sad as he saw Dominic weak and struggling.

Dominic: ''Dominic lowers the gun and laughs in a deppresed way You know, let me tell you, befroe I was an asshole, good for nothing piece of scum, then I had innocent blood on my hands, wanted to jump, but Ellie was there, helped me, I changed, when she was in that spot, I helped her, but want to know what I realized? I'm a hypocrite, I left the team, in vain even, I might have well ruined Ellie's life by loving her, and I let irrationality take over, I became weak, at this point maybe I did left out of not wanting take responisibility. The t.v. played each thing he talked about.''

Trey: 'He watched the TV as Dom talked and began to feel very bad for his friend. He looked at him and hugged him.' ''It hurts to see you his way man... I will get you out and you will have your old life back. Eli is waiting for you outside Dom. We all are.''

Dominic saw Trey's memories and saw each new Absconder, a bit amazed as he went closer to it.

Dominic: W-Who are they?

Trey: The new members dude. He looked a little proud as Dom looked into it. ''You've missed a lot Dom. I'm going to bring you back now.''

Dominic: ''You're right, time that I stop being a whiny b-tch huh? He sounded filled with confidence again I can't wait to knock Chernabog's teeth in. He grinned suddenly and got up and followed Trey in the main room of the mansion.''

Trey: ''Okay so. Apparently you have the same psychic resonance as Chernabog. But I realized when he absorbed you into his mind, he made your psychic flow resonate with his, so that's why you're essentially trapped. What I'm going to do is disrupt that psychic resonance and set you at a different resonance which should, in theory, get you out of his mind. You following? It's kind of like vibrational frequencies, that vibrate at the same frequency. I'm basically going to set a counter vibration to disrupt that resonance so that I can get you out of his mind. I've also never done this before, so...''

Dominic: To help you comprehend you're basically gonna get us in the frequency of reality...I get it.

Trey ''Awesome so, let's do this. It's also going to be painful.''

'He then just puts his two hands on each side of Dom's head as he's standing directly in front of him. He starts to send immense psychic disruptions throughout Dom's head and body. This causes the whole mansion to shake and rattle as if there was an earthquake. Trey starts to feel his energy seeping from his astral form fast as he keeps trying to disrupt the psychic energy and pull Dominic out. He concentrates harder and harder as veins start to become visible on his head in reality. The mansions structures begins to shake more and more violently and everything starts to crack throughout the mansion. He begins to send the rest of his psychic energy through and suddenly the mansion and Dominic's body explodes in green energy as he disappears. The shockwaves send Trey back a little but stops as he's now floating in the vortex that is Chernabog's mind. Trey breathes out in relief as closes his eyes, for a second and then opens them, to find himself looking down at Chernabog's body. He falls to the ground on his feet and looks around at everyone smiling and looking around.'

Trey: So where's Dom guys! He seems exciting while looking around for him.

Haruto: Don't see him! Should we get the Adamantium out now? He's back to one body and currently in his Strength armor ready to pull out the adamantium.

Trey: What?! I brung him out though...

Alyna: What? No you didn't! Go bring him out!

Trey: But he's not in there anymore...

Eliana: What?! He's not here?! But...maybe he's still physically in there...

Trey: I was sure that I pulled his whole body out. It ex-. No... he must be in the astral plane! Of course, I was in my astral form when he exploded into energy. He starts walking around with his hands out in the air, as if he was trying to "feel" it. He should be here somewhere... 'Suddenly he psychic feels a presence next to him and uses his hand to grab something invisible, and then there is a huge flash of green light. As the light dims, it's seen as an arm, that seems to be turning physical out of green light. He gets excited and starts to pull the arm out of thin air as the area is filled with green light. The light is seen being pulled out along with more of Dom's body surrounded by glowing nanites. He keeps pulling, finally pulling a screaming Dom out of the astral plane and they both fall to the ground with Dom having on the same clothes as when he got absorbed into Chernabog. The green nanites surround Dominic and begin to heal him.' Dom! You're back bro! He instantly turns his head to Haruto Do it man!

'Haruto begins punching the adamantium in Chernabog as fast and as hard as he possibly can while yelling out Crazy Diamond's Stand Cry. The adamantium begins turning back into the liquid form it takes before it's molded and set into its prior form. As the adamantium leaks out of Chernabog, it begins shaping itself into a sword-like form as Haruto grabs the last of the adamantium in Chernabog and tears it out before throwing it at the sword and grabbing onto it, solidifying it into a pure adamantium greatsword.' Haruto: Forgot about my Restore's warping ability. This oughta come in handy! He takes up the sword and gets in a combat stance. Go for it!

'Dominic stretches a bit, and sighs, he looked at Eliana a bit, but then turned around facing the temporarily comatose Chernabog, he then has an angry look and armors up. Everyone got to see his new armor, as he was aboe to manifest a gun from within his armor.'

Dominic: *Built-ins?* Mechanical looking tendrils sprout from his back, cylinder/cable shaped, as the ends glowed with green energy Well guys, you can give me any snarky, witty remarks later, I'm an arse, pr-ck and scum, but I'd like to point out the fact we got robo Satan here.

Eliana: Her eyes widen seeing Dominic, but she let's that go to focus on the mission. Jason! We need you. Do you have anything up your sleeve to tire him out?

Jason: He arrives from a shadow. I could summon dark forces to drain his stamina.

Eliana: Uh, great. Do that while I drain some energy. 'She pulls out Clio's Broach and starts taking in energy rapidly. Meanwhile, Jason makes a strange symbol with his hand, then throws a ball of fire on the ground, as it explodes, and out the flames comes a chariot of spirits, tranlucent blue. It rides around Chernabog, generating a blue wind vortex as Chernabog slows down and his energy is ripped from his body into the chariot. The chariot rider then rides off, evaporating into the air, laughing.' What the f*ck was that?!

Jason: I summoned dark forces using Devilry, duh. Comes at a cost though, my own strength, so, I'm going to take a break. He jumps into a shadow and disappears.

Chernabog looked like a skeletal version of his initial appearance and he growled when he saw Dominic, just as Chernabog was faster than last time due to lack of Adamantium, Ripper got in Chernabog's way pushing him back a bit.

Ripper: Young ones, no direspect, but if you would kindly start, as you people say, "Opening a can of Whoop-ass"? That would be very appreaciated. He growls at Chernabog, and push kicks him, Dominic shouted in The Hivemind language for Ripper to move as he started opening fire on Chernabog, but then said enemy roared loudly and they could all see Hivemind troops start engaging on them.

Antonia: Hey Alyna, wanna continue our original job and just punt some Grunts tag team style? She grinned under her mask.

Alyna: Mhm. 'She takes a look around her as hundreds of troops are coming at them. '

'In a burst of elements, weapons, and power itself, Antonia and Alyna charged, as the past hosts followed in, decimating troops, to confirm, yes, it would look AWESOME! Dominic then started fighting Chernabog, giving a flurry of Punches and Kicks assisted with tendrils and guns. Chernabog reeled back though using his eye beams as Dominic created a Domed energy shield blocking it, but was in a tight situation.'

'Eliana runs past Dominic and glows a mix of purple and red, then surrounds her body in Amethyst energy and emits Ruby energy from her hands. She jumps up, propelling herself with Ruby energy at Chernabog, then claps her hands in his face, blasting his face with Ruby energy which burns him and erodes his skull. She then punches his head several times with ground breaking strength due to Amethyst hardening her skin and bones. Chernabog in turn punches her stomach, then back hands her face. He then swings his head at her, cutting her skin open with his horns as she blocks it with her arms but starts bleeding. He then turns around and smacks her away with his tail, sending her flying back into a building. Thad sees this then looks at Chernabog, his eyes determined to kill him. Thaddeus runs at Chernabog then kicks off the ground, flying to Chernabog then drop kicks him across the street again, creating a shockwave that shatters all the windows of buildings. Thad then dashes at Chernabog before he gets up, then grabs Chernabog's head, stabbing his thumbs into his forehead then rips his skull open with telekinesis. Thad pulls out his pistol from his blazer pocket then empties the entire clip in Chernabog's exposed brain, causing him to roar in pain. Thad clicks his fingers, making Chernabog's own ribs rip out and pierce through his own chest, then Chernabog attempts to hit Thad multiple times but misses all, so Thad roundhouse kicks him to the floor. Chernabog teleports behind Thad then lifts him up, as Hivemind troops come to his aid, firing guns at Thad, but all the lasers miss and ricochet, killing each other instead. But this trick distracts Thad, allowing Chernabog to throw him face first into a building, knocking him out, but Chernabog crumbles due to brain damage and falls over, immobilising him.'

'Meanwhile with the others Antonia entered that state of hers where she was using all elements she had with great prowess, launching jets of fire, as the Past Hosts were taking care of Vehicles of the troops, Antonia saw a Hivemind heavy about to hit Alyna, and in pure instinct dashed into a cloud of fire, cutting off the Heavy's arm then kicked off his head. Alyna could see Antonia's white glowing eyes indicating she was in that state.'

'Alyna bolted to her right as she saw lots of troops shooting at the Hosts. She used her magic to transmute water in her hand into a golden court sword variant, which is not only used for thrusting, but for slashing. She dashed with immense speed at the troops as her arms were behind her and she ran with a low stance. When she got to the troops, she slashed her court sword to her left, killing two troops, then she jumped over their dead bodies. She summoned water to swirl around her body as she ran and launched columns of dense water at enemies about to shoot at her. They all either die or get knocked unconscious and a heavy troop comes with armor to begin shooting at her. She starts zig zag running very fast but she gets hit with a heavy shot in her left shoulder, which goes clean through and Alyna holds her shoulder as she trips and rolls continuously on the ground slowing down. In a second, she regains her balance to be able to keep running and looks at the heavy troop and several other light troops behind it. She then launches herself at the heavy troop in blinding speed, and thrusts the sharp blade into the heavy's heart. She then pulls it out and spins around its huge body and dashes at the troops, slashing and thrusting into all of them, their blood splattering on her face and clothes, but it doesn't stop her from her mission. After she kills all of them in her vicinity, she skids to a stop and gets on one knee to make a light blue water sphere surround her shoulder to start to heal it. She's breathing heavily as she looks at all the destruction around.'
