BE!Wanda calmly teleports away from the explosion, then begins gracefully weaving left and right to evade the majority of Katre's blows while blocking the rest. Once the psychopathic Sister moves on, she makes a grasping motion with one hand, and Katre might start feeling as if her mind is being repeatedly stabbed by several red-hot knives at once.
Before BE!Pietro can react, Hisoka steps in to intercept Katre's blows and Alt Argo arrives to attack, much to his relief. He then dashes over to the latter.
"First off, we'll catch up later even though we've got a lot to discuss. Second, and I can't stress this enough, keep these goddamn gauntlets away from Katre at all costs."
He hands off the gauntlets to Alt Argo, then conjures a pair of Predator-style Chaos Wristblade on his arms and dashes at Katre before attempting to viciously stab her with them multiple times.
"I'm not underestimating her, I'm just saying that if she's so powerful, why does she rely on lackeys to do her dirty work? And how long until that portal's open and Ain gets back here?"
She is surprised at being matched by Hisoka but is then successfully wrestled by Alt.Argo, after trashing a bit, she try to overpower him, attempting to toss him all the way into the air and then raising her hand to try and blast him with an explosion to blast him further.
Katre keeps running off in Hisoka's direction, aim for a punch, but is able to slide between his leg and attempt to hit him with a surprise elbow attack to hurl him away, directly into Raex if prefferable.
The sister stops by and is taken off-guard by the telepathy, screaming blood murder !
"NOOOOOO !"
She raise her hand !
"STOP IT ! You-YOU... ARE GOING TO TICKLE ME !" she says, blitzing and attempting to strike Wanda in the stomach, before attempting to pummel her furthermore, and then attempting to grab her by the forehead to try to smash her against her knee !
She is taken by surprise by the stabbing but her skin is still too tough and she try to intercept Pietro with a pimpslap before dashing forwards to the pawn doll, attempting to hit him with explosions and then trying to wreck the gauntlets with a series of powerful attacks, attempting to hit and pummel him with everything she has !
The Sisters do try to stop her, but Katre is holding nothing back and is still strong enough to blow past them.

If he fails in this hit, he will attempt to tackle her and take it to hand to hand. Raex's armor shines, but some of the Golden crosses are slowly going black, and Raex is getting more desperate to end the fight quickly.

Yorihime returns to view, with obvious damage. Her sleeves are ripped and her pants have holes in them now.
"Unfortunately... Toyohime is not with me at this moment... but I don't need her." The former moon queen mutters, still determined as ever.
She's holding her sword as if it was a baseball bat now, it appears.
Alt.Argo gets overpowered, thrown up and caught in the explosion, his body destroyed.
However, once Katre's going after Hisoka again, Alt.Argo shows himself to BE!Pietro.
"Thank god for my cloning ability. That could've been the end of me.", he says, and then gets the gauntlets shoved in his hands. He blinks, then nods.
"Sure.", he says, spawning another clone, then gets a bit of distance from the ongoing battle. While it's not his style to just sit back, he doesn't want to risk getting the gauntlets destroyed in battle if they're really that important.
Hisoka, meanwhile, is taken by surprise by Katre's manoeuvre, but manages to leap to the left to avoid her attack, and prepares to counterattack, but then notices that Alt.Argo is about to be targeted while holding the gauntlet, so he leaps over Alt.Argo, touching him on his head, making him glance behind up for a moment, and then pulls Alt.Argo away from Katre once he lands, shooting Katre a smug grin, clearly taunting her.
Due to Katre using more power, the creature's Nen activates faster, and it grows more, the number on the counter increasing more as well.
"Adding interest."

In the year 202X, all is devastation... Soon, any last shred of hope had by the saintliest optimist shall die and decay.BE!Wanda narrowly manages to sidestep away from Katre's assault, then counters by firing several Corrosion Bolts at her before muttering a quick incantation as she casts a fear-inducing spell at the Sister. If successful, Katre will find herself trapped in a nightmarish illusion filled with her greatest fears and doubts.
After being knocked back by the slap, BE!Pietro takes a moment to recover, then dashes at Katre and begins hacking away at her with a Chaos Chainsaw.
That smug grin will be treated with a vicious punch, as Katre try to punch him in the teeth and then attempts to grab his face to throw him to the ground, before attempting to viciously stomps him multiple times into the sand to get him away.
She emerges back with her chase, not caring about the female enemy, but is then sliced open by the man. Her sheer toughness and regeneration works on protecting her but she is still taken aback by the damage, though she grins and step aside, attempting to use his momentum against him and trying to smash her fists against his back. The holy fire burns her as well until she uses her secondary power to remove it, breathing hard.
She is hit by the bolts, stepping back, but dispel the illusion and attempts to hit Wanda with a mighty explosion, before attempting to slug her across the face with her fist to hurl her away. She deal with Pietro by simply wrecking the chainsaw with a strong punch meant to hit him in the chest as well.
She resume the chase and attempts to keep exploding Argo, before trying to pummel him and the gauntlets.

"BECAUSE SHE REFUSE TO REVEAL HERSELF AND BE EXPOSED. IF YOU WERE THE HEAD OF AN ORGANIZATION, YOU WOULD NOT NEEDLESSLY SHOW YOURSELF AND POTENTIALLY DIE, IS THIS UNIT RIGHT ? DO NOT LIE, I CAN DETECT THEM."

Nautolan picture belongs to Bonesmarinated on twitterRaex's momentum isn't easily used against him, but it does force him back. The holy fire begins burning brighter, but this secondary ability begins to take hold of it. The holy fire's effects aren't as bad, but it is still there eating at her soul. "Stop, and I'll take that out of you." Raex shouts to Katre, but the Golden crosses on his armor are beginning to fade. As Raex is beginning to sound more monsterous...
This time, Hisoka gets hit by the brutal beatdown, and ends up a little further in the sand. Being Hisoka, he does still get up, but he's noticably slower, and his face is bloodied. He's also not in a condition to immediately attack.
Alt.Argo, now with his head in the fight, leaps around like an acrobat to avoid the explosions, used to having to make quick, far dodges to avoid Alt.Demo's chains. All the while he keeps the gauntlets in a safe place, as he'd torn open his stomach when Katre was distracted by the BE!Maximoffs, put the gauntlets in there, and regenerated the wound.
The thing is... which one of the two is the one with the gauntlets? Now that they're hidden, it's impossible to tell, and neither one is going to get close to Katre, sticking close to each other so that, in the case of an emergency, the one without the gauntlets can save the one who has them from certain death.
"Adding interest.", the creature says once more, now having grown almost as big as Katre herself, and the number on its counter much bigger than it was at the start.
At this point, Katre might actually start feeling the difference.
In the year 202X, all is devastation... Soon, any last shred of hope had by the saintliest optimist shall die and decay."Alright." Yorihime thinks.
She then pulls out a card - this card seems to spawn a star of orbs in the air. As it approaches Katre, it seems to move at random, moving close and afar, but eventually will converge toward Katre's position - it seems to home in on her when it gets to this point.

BE!Wanda counters the explosion with a Corrosion Blast, then brings up her forearm to defend from Katre's followup strike, though it results in a Knockback Slide.
"Annoying..."
She suddenly teleports in front of Katre and fires a point-blank beam of Destruction Magic at her stomach, then maneuvers behind her and fires seveal certain blood-red bolts at her back. If successful, Katre will feel that which hurts her the most with each bolt that hits.
After being sent sprawling by the punch, BE!Pietro snarls in annoyance as he conjures a pair of spiked Chaos Power Fists on his hands. Dashing right up to Katre, he attempts to brutally pulverize her with a series of truly vicious Rapid-Fire Fisticuffs.
"Considering that Troa's apparently an all-powerful Sister whose 'good' facade is seriously transparent, it doesn't seem like she really needs to worry about being exposed."
edited 12th Jan '18 1:28:14 PM by IchigoMontoya
"OUT OF THE WAY !" she yells, smashing through the beam and attempting to hit Wanda in the face, and then attempting to hit her in the face several times over, before attempting to kick her away with a powerful kick !
She is struck by Pietro and is surprised at how much it hurts, but still tank through it and try to punch him away. She then go for Argo but the bullets take her away !
"HA, FUCK OFF ! BEAT IT, AND TAKE THE PLANET WITH YOU !" she says, landing in a spot and folding her arms... before attempting to deliver a massive burst of explosions around herself !
"TAKE THIS !" she says, delivering another massive wave, and attempting to bury the group under a massive wave of raw power, even with her power being sapped. It try to reach everyone and pack a devastating power, enough to force the other Sisters to dodge !
"RAARRGGH !" she yells further more, forming a gigantic red area around her as she continues attempting to kill everyone with a burst of explosions delivered in an expanding circle, proceeding to raise her arms to attempt to once again hit everyone with explosions. Not even being airborne will save them since the explosions are that massive !
Nautolan picture belongs to Bonesmarinated on twitter"The- Yorihime's interrupted, as she flies a big distance because of the explosions. It seems that she's been thrown thousands of feet away...
Descending faster and faster, she hits the ground head-first, of which the force of her hitting it that way knocks her out for the moment.

Both of the Alt.Argo's start running, though the crapton of explosions catch up to them, and one of the two grabs the other and throws him out of range. The second Alt.Argo lands outside of the explosion's range safely, though the first one is annihilated.
Hisoka, too much out of breath to dodge, summons forth all of the Nen aura he can produce, creating an astonishingly huge aura, and uses it in a defensive manner, hoping that it'll be enough to tank the explosions, which engulf him.
The creature gets engulfed in the explosions too, but due to its nature, it comes out fully intact, and growing ever faster. The number on the counter is now at least 10 times as big as it originally was, which only goes to show just how much power Katre must have if she can still pull off this attack while having lost so much power already.
In the year 202X, all is devastation... Soon, any last shred of hope had by the saintliest optimist shall die and decay.Katre's wave of raw power is interrupted by something roaring at an even power. Raex is all but gone, now in the form of this.. beast. The beast rushes Katre leaving a large crater between him and her. He attempts to punch her, if blocked or parried; she would notice these have much more power than even the blade. He breathes what appears to be a black gas at her, if she breathes it in she will be temporarily distorted. The beast is moving, but all you can see are it's piercing white eyes. It appears to be giggling?
While Katre's first punch manages to connect and stagger BE!Wanda, she quickly leaps aside to evade the remainder of the onslaught. Once Katre starts to go full-on Michael Bay, she quickly conjures the strongest magic barrier she can muster, which only just manages to withstand the explosions.
After being knocked away, BE!Pietro dashes to his sister's side in time to be shielded from the explosions by her barrier.
She smiles... and unleash, probably to the horrors of the on-lookers, another barrage to try and engulf Argo and the siblings as well. When the monster comes at her, she raise yet another barrage of explosions to try to push it back and make it collapse under a barrage of blasts and devastating attacks, once again aimed at anyone !
"I'LL KILL YOU !" she yells, laughing and blowing the gas away. "ONCE MY POWERS ARE BACK I'LL KILL YOU !"

"Let's go."

Nautolan picture belongs to Bonesmarinated on twitterThis time, Alt.Argo won't be able to dodge. However...
He takes a sturdy stance and crosses his arms, as his skin turns grey, and then the explosion engulfs him.
However, while it's not immediately clear if he survived, the creature is still around, still adding interest, so it's safe to assume that, whatever Alt.Argo did, it worked.
Hisoka, meanwhile...
He's lying on the ground, and not moving. Is he...
In the year 202X, all is devastation... Soon, any last shred of hope had by the saintliest optimist shall die and decay.Raex's Demon form tanks it, and keeps moving. The beast roars as loud as it can, creating a crater around itself. It laughs "No. Deceit. Burn...." The beast jumps at her with 8 blades for his 8 arms. They're not made of metal, but of pure demonic energy. He lands in front of her and swings fast, yet wildly. The beast is roaring, as the holy fire is slowly tainting in site of the beast. Katre hopefully feels a churn in her stomach, some might say.. fear.
BE!Wanda conjures up another magic barrier just as the previous one shatters, gritting her teeth from the effort as she does so.
BE!Pietro merely stays with his sister behind her barrier, fists clenched as he waits for the onslaught to end.
"Okay, this is getting ridiculous! Whoever the Xir assholes that made this bitch are, I hope some kinda space monster tears them a new one!"
He takes a moment to glance at the downed Hisoka.
"No way he's dead, that's for sure."
"If she cared about children so much, she wouldn't be trying to groom a bunch of them into her own personal attack dogs."
Upon seeing Ain arrive through the portal, Nicole bolts up from her seat and moves to her side with a grin.
"Thank god you're alright! I mean, not that I doubted you or anything, but... yeah, we should probably get going."
She spreads her dragon wings and waits to follow after Ain once she gets going.

Katre continue her spam of explosions, and, with now massive gashes all over her body, move in to try to gather all of the remaining explosions into the demon to try and light it up !
"DIE YOU FUCKING BEAST ! DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE !" she says, before unleashing a final, massive explosion to try and engulf everyone nearby !
Nautolan picture belongs to Bonesmarinated on twitterThe beast in engulfed in smoke. It goes quiet for a second, but the beast comes out of the blast stumbling. It roars as it does one last charge, but fails. Just in front of the woman, the beast begins disentigrating, revealing a white suit of armor. It was Raex the whole time, but now the demon has shed Raex is now unsconscious. The beast utters one sentence before it finally disappears "You will die."
Nicole proceeds to fly after Ain and Platinum.
BE!Wanda puts as much power as needed into her barrier so as to maintain it, her legs almost buckling from the sheer effort.
BE!Pietro quickly moves to support BE!Wanda once the latter starts visibly straining from the effort of maintaining her barrier.
Alt.Argo emerges, mostly unscathed due to his hardened skin. Still, not wanting to risk anything with these next explosions, Alt.Argo dives behind BE!Wanda, and even tries to help her out by pushing against her back, attempting to give her support so that she can stay standing with her barrier.
As for Hisoka, he's still down.
After the explosions are over, the creature suddenly makes a ringing sound, and then transforms into some kind of strange catlike creature
.
"All interest added."
And Katre will find that she has no more power left now.

Raex is hit, and hit hard. He falls, his impact leaving a small crater. However he begins to stand, as his armor transforms once again. Raex's normal white is now covered with golden crosses everywhere. Raex's sword is now flooding with a much more potent reality warping energy. Unlike before, this energy is precisely put on, instead of just layered on like before. Raex says to himself "Guess I need a scalpel to kill this one." He teleports and waits for an opportunity to strike his opponent.
