Storm Weaver ate the green goop nonetheless, although making a face that quite clearly showed his disdain for the taste. He turned to the real(?) Loki, now angered.
"I've never had a chance to try this out, you know?" He raised his right hand, a black aura forming around it, galaxies and nebulas swirling within. By moving his hand, he changed the aura, manipulating the fabric of reality and dimensions itself, although without the skilled touch of a proficient manipulator. It was, however, hopefully enough to lock the real Loki in place for a bit.
"That's better." He said before abruptly lunging again, although having wisened up enough to use a pair of sharp claws instead.
Divine Burden
Loki's surprised and freezes up. However, he's so tough that he seems to be pushed back by Storm Weaver instead of hurt, though it looks like enough damage will break through.
However, he has realized that the Weaver is dangerous, and just laughs, showing off his undamaged skin, though he's clearly angered at him for actually freezing him in place !
"I'll show you the power of a deity... next time !" he says, quickly vanishing in a puff of green smoke.

As soon as Loki vanished, Storm Weaver seemed to snap out of his rage, abruptly causing him to nearly puke at the taste of the remaining goop in his mouth. He quickly glanced around to confirm that noone was there before teleporting away to wherever. Unbeknownst to him, however, there was indeed a watcher.
A being, in a dimension of thick purple mist, watched the action through a portal, projected in a black aura much the same as the one Storm Weaver had briefly created.
"... Well, the little one grows powerful. Too powerful. I may have a word with that 'Loki' he was attacking..."
Divine Burden
Sarah's sitting on a bench in Primordia, casually drinking tea while looking at some kind of dusty book.
"Genuine old books are so rare to find nowadays." she comments, slowly turning the page.
Fallout 2? More like Fallout 2 bad.
Sarah might hear some arguing nearby. And the voices should sound familiar...
"Sometimes I don't understand what Cyber's thinking. 'Revive the robot, maintain the illusions, go on recon with Hub'-" , Mara complains.
"You're on recon with me because you didn't tell anyone about the dispelled illusion. Do you have any idea how shocked Cyber was when I brought him to base 13 and showed him that someone sprayed graffiti all over the walls?" , Hub
◊ says, sighing.
"This is still pointless, and cutting into what I should be busy with. Does he have any idea how hard it is to pull souls out of other dimensions to revive them?"
"Considering that he's not a necromancer... I'd say no." , Hub says, slightly smirking. His mocking tone earns him a dose of getting his head grabbed by Mara and then pulled up to look her in her glaring eyes.
"You better keep in mind that being a smartass will do you more harm than good." , she says, threateningly. Bell
◊, who was flying behind her, now stops as to not accidentally bump into Mara. Mara's already in a bad mood, and Bell fears that even the slightest transgression will get her badly hurt, or worse...
"Yeah, alright, I'll watch my words." , Hub says, which is enough to let Mara let go of him. Without putting him down first, so he falls on the ground and Mara continues walking.
In the year 202X, all is devastation... Soon, any last shred of hope had by the saintliest optimist shall die and decay.
Divine Burden
Sarah gets up and follow them, though she is a bit more nervous than usual since she quickly outpace them, outright walking in their way. She does looks surprised but barely. It seems that she wasn't excepting for Bell to be there.
"... Oh. Hello." she says. "I never thought that you'd be so open about your plans. Apparently, super hearing isn't needed to spy on your conversation." declares Sarah, putting her hands on her hips and slightly getting out of the way. Her eyes are calm but there's a sudden flash of anger before they go back to normal.
"Just carry on walking, the deal's still on." declares Sarah.
Fallout 2? More like Fallout 2 bad.
Mara stops when Sarah walks in their way, looking slightly annoyed. Hub stops in his tracks, almost bumping into Mara himself this time, and Bell slightly hides behind Hub, a little intimidated by Sarah.
Mara doesn't say anything in return until Sarah gets out of the way again.
"Why shouldn't we? We have nothing to fear." , she replies. She then raises her eyebrow and starts walking again.
"Bell." , she says, and that's all she needs to get Bell, looking a little panicked, to get out from behind Hub and fly after her mother again, all without the girl saying anything. Hub seems to have picked up on the brief anger though, as he's eyeing Sarah suspiciously before he starts walking again.
In the year 202X, all is devastation... Soon, any last shred of hope had by the saintliest optimist shall die and decay.
Divine Burden
She watch them go, sighs, and picks up her book...
However, the image of the cowering Bell comes back in her mind. That, and the flash of anger, means that she actually start to follow them, attempting to reach Mara, though she has a casual, smiling attitude about it.
"Mara, say, do you ever spend time to think about... past deals ?"
Fallout 2? More like Fallout 2 bad.
Hub seems to be bothered by Sarah following them, though he doesn't say anything about it since she doesn't seem to be hostile. Bell just quickly moves out of Sarah's way when she tries to reach Mara.
Mara herself doesn't immediately turn around, though she does answer.
"Of course. I remember every deal I've ever made."
Then she slightly glances back.
"Why do you ask?"
In the year 202X, all is devastation... Soon, any last shred of hope had by the saintliest optimist shall die and decay.

Sarah immediately attempts to punch her in the cheek and face, with enough force and precise control to trigger a light shockwave. Her smile and eyes have transformed into a withering glare as she grits her teeth.
The adult sister then tries to keep her fist lodged in and attempts to leap way past Primordia and into Sylvalum, where she attempts to toss Mara away into the sand, forming a deep gash in the white sand and causing a huge dust cloud to kick up.
"Well. I did say that I wouldn't interrupt in the battles, right ? But what about the moments when you're not doing anything ?" she says, as electricity builds up around her. She quickly puts some device on her hair as she approaches Mara, getting a bun of some sort to prevent any hair grab or damage.
"I'm sick of your evil actions, Mara. You hold worlds hostage, you break or torment people, you do all kind of depraved actions, from the genocidal to the petty, without a single care. You bask in your title of "goddess of evil" like no one before." she says;
Sarah spreads her hands wide, with lightning coming out.
"Then I'll be the one who will slay the goddess of evil. My sword will plunge into your heart and send you back to your realm of pain, demon." she says, yelling the last phrase as the thunder strikes everywhere around Sarah, without hitting Mara.
"Get ready. If you die without using your full power, you'll have an excuse for your defeat."

Completely taken by surprise, Mara gets punched hard and ends up crashing into the sand.
While Sarah is talking and the dust cloud is up, there's no sign of Mara just yet. After she's done talking though, her silhouette can be seen getting up within the cloud. Shakily though, as it seems that the punch had quite the impact on her. She growls.
"You brat... that actually hurt me."
She swings her arm to dispell the cloud, revealing that her human 'suit's' face has been caved in. Despite that, she grins.
"You will regret that. I'll make an example out of you."
Her eyes glow red.
"An example of what happens when you MADE ME MAD!"
Clawd extending from her hands, she rips her skin off, a bright human-formed glow emerging from it. This glow immediately changes its shape though, and golden armor grows around it.
Now in her demonic, armored form, she makes a battle cry before leaping at Sarah, attempting to slash at her.
Assassin Battle! Mara's Demon!
Meanwhile, Hub and Bell are staring, dumbfounded and trying to take in what just happened. Hub quickly adapts though, and, grabbing Bell by her arm and using Gyro Soul to fly, he starts to make his way over to the battlefield.
In the year 202X, all is devastation... Soon, any last shred of hope had by the saintliest optimist shall die and decay.

Sarah gets slashed in the cheek and turns her head, briefly stepping back... and then turn her head back, revealing that her cheek is practically intact. Sarah takes the occasion to grab her scarf and teleport it away with a device, walking up to Mara.
"So... this is what happens when you get mad ?" she says; "Fair."
Sarah punch at Mara's stomach with great force and then attempts to punch her all the way up to a mountain. She then yells, spin around and attempts to hit Mara in the stomach, before triggering a lightning bolt to attempt to hit Mara and send her through the mountain itself !
"You did use that form before. It was more impressive... but, well, you did cheat so I'm not surprised."
Sarah dash through the mountain and attempts to kick Mara out of it, before trying to smack her around Sylvalum, surrounding herself in lightning and appearing as a blue blur to on-lookers, leaving a trail of lightning behind her on occasions as she attempts to kick the golden demon around.
Fallout 2? More like Fallout 2 bad.
Mara looks surprised, even shocked. Nothing!? It did NOTHING!? Yeah, last time they fought, Sarah had been weakened and Mara had been powered up, but how could the difference be this big!? She's just some brat, for crying out-
She's snapped out of her thoughts when she recieves a painful blow to the stomach, stunning her and letting her get knocked into the mountain.
Not even getting more than a second to catch her breath, she's then launched out of the mountain again, and for a few seconds, successfully becomes a pinball, flying all around the place, changing tracks with every hit from Sarah.
Eventually though, Mara blasts an explosion in front of herself to propell her out of Sarah's path and back onto the ground, whereupon she immediately starts conjuring up swords out of her arms and throwing them at Sarah at a speed she, admittedly, might have trouble dodging.
Hub, having trouble getting to them due to Sarah constantly moving around, lets go of Bell, letting her fly by herself, so that he can pick up some speed.

Sarah get hit at first but the swords don't appears sharp enough to go all the way through to her skin, and she begins to fly around the sword, attempting to smash into Mara in a way that cause a huge dust cloud to appear and crater the ground around them, creating a ton of rubbles !
If she succeeds, Sarah appears, attempting to grab one of Mara's horns while attempting to step on her face.
"How is it ?! How is it to fight without having several advantages stacked for you ? To fight someone who can fight back ?!" she says, attempting to then grabs the two horns to spin Mara around.
"You're no goddess, Mara, just a bully who wants to be bigger than everyone else around her !" continues Sarah, attempting to toss Mara into a nearby electromagnetic wall, with enough strength to cave the wall in and carve yet another gash on Sylvalum.
"And now, you've found someone bigger than you." she says. "Congratulations."

Mara quickly raises her arms to bring up an energy shield in front of herself, though the impact is still strong enough to create that crater, in which Mara's now standing.
Her horns get grabbed, though she blocks Sarah's foot with her arm. Still, she can't actually push her off, and ends up getting spun around, and eventually tossed into the wall.
Still, she gets up out of the rubble rather quickly, not looking too hurt, though her strained expression shows that she's not capable of tanking Sarah's attacks.
"You, bigger than me!?" , she snarls. "Arrogant child, you're not even a century old, and you think you can compare yourself to me? Just because you have the advantage over me right now? Or is it because you're from the future?"
She cracks her neck, then grins darkly.
"Heh, don't make me laugh. Whatever reason it is, you'll soon realize the mistake you've made by attacking me."
Black energy starts to form around her fists.
"You should've stayed in your own timeline, and kept playing with your dolls."
She rushes forward, attempting to deliver several powerful punches to Sarah's chest, stomach and neck.

"No need to be from the future to know the outcome of the fight." says Sarah, blocking or dodging Mara's attacks. Her eyes darts around everywhere along with her senses, aware that assassins could attempt to ambush her. A sneak attack could be pretty bad after all, since Mara could still at least hurt her.
She then moves to block Mara's fists, attempting to grab them both. If it succeeds, she then yells as she attempts to overpower Mara by slamming her into the ground, wrestling against Mara's strength. If she succeeds in slamming her, then Sarah attempts to lift her up, tossing her above her a little... and then attempts to slam her knee into Mara's face, to attempts to toss her up in the sky.
Sarah then clenches her fists and leaps up several times, attempting to hit Mara three times to send her deeper into the sky. The reason why becomes apparent when black light begins to illuminate the two fighters, revealing that black lightning is accumulating up in the sky. They're really up in the sky, to the point where they can see everything below.
"You must recognize this." she says, leaping backward as she points at Mara.
"You were a sorry excuse for a living being, Mara. And ultimately, you were not much of a fight either." she says, as the thunder roars.
"Begone."
The sound shuts off and everything seems to goes black and white as a huge thunderbolt of black lightning springs forth from the heaven, attempting to hit Mara as it tear its way towards Sylvalum, though Sarah seems to be controlling its direction.

Mara would find herself assaulted by a barrage of Arcane Bolts, courtesy of a newly arrived GE!Wanda.
"Sarah, what the hell do you think you're doing?! Have you completely forgotten about the Missingno deal?!" she yells at her old friend.

Her hands get grabbed, and, despite her efforts to stay on her feet, she gets slammed down, then liften up, and with a slam from Sarah's knee, launched up into the sky.
When up in the sky though, she isn't defenseless, and conjures up small forcefields on her arms, using them to block Sarah's three hits, though this doesn't prevent her from being flung further upwards.
Noticing the black lightning, she actually tries to escape being harmed by starting to form an explosion in front of herself while Sarah is talking, planning to launch herself out of the lightning's path. However, GE!Wanda's bolts hit and surprise her, and cause the lightning to bear down upon her, trapping Mara within the attack as it makes it way towards Sylvalum.
However, Hub suddenly swoops in, using Elec Soul to take next to no damage from the lightning, and snags Mara out of the attack, the both of them landing near Sarah and GE!Wanda. Mara looks pissed off, parts of her armor cracked, and not saying anything. Hub speaks up, however.
"If you think you're getting away with an attack like this, you're sorely-"
Mara, ever the grateful one, pushes herself off of Hub and points at Sarah.
"I... have had enough of this. You think you're justified because I'm evil, while you messing with time is just as bad! No more! We are settling this, here and now. You and me, one on one! I'll teach you a lesson you won't live to regret!"
She glances at GE!Wanda, then turns to Hub.
"Keep the other brat occupied!"
Hub blinks.
"What!? Me?"
"No, the holy spirit. YES, you!"
Mara then charges at Sarah again, this time moving and attacking somewhat faster, though her attacks aren't that much stronger than before.
Hub, meanwhile, sighs, then grins and transforms with his Hub Soul
◊, looking at GE!Wanda.
"I'm sorry." , he lies. "But you sealed your fate by getting involved."
He charges for GE!Wanda, terrifyingly fast, and starts shooting energy blasts at her from his arm cannon. Said blasts, GE!Wanda will find, are actually worryingly powerful.
Bell, now close enough to witness the battle, looks on in awe.

Sarah rolls her eyes when Wanda steps in, using the far distance (since she's in the sky) to do so.
"Don't worry, I'll protect any victims from retribution afterwards, or let the current arenagoers protect them." she says, flying down and reaching Mara and Hub.
"... I love that primal look in your eyes." she says, smirking. She then gets serious and runs up to Mara, attempting to punch her in the face while also getting punched, causing her to get a bruise on the cheek. However, she recovers faster (perhaps) and surrounds her fist with some kind of metal plates before attempting to punch Mara in the stomach to drive her backward !
Then, she magnetically command the plates back to her to attempt to get Mara to fly towards her, and attempts to smash her two fists into Mara's face, with enough strength to trigger a shockwave that gloriously sweep the sand aways in a clean circle, though it won't harm Wanda or Hub.
"I am messing with time." she says, walking up towards Mara and attempting to cleanly sever one of her horns with a hand sweep. "I acknowledge it. But it's worth your death, you worthless "goddess"."

With a flash of bright light that can only be the Bifrost, Hub would find his energy blasts deflected by none other than GE!Thor
, who flies right towards him before attempting to bash him hard in the face with a momentum-fueled swing of Mjolnir.
"Unfortunately, my friend has far more important matters to deal with than the likes of you! As such, your battle will be with me!"
He'll then follow up by unleashing a point-blank blast of lightning at Hub.
"Thanks the Nine Realms Heimdall caught sight of this madness when he did..."
Thanks to GE!Thor's intervention, GE!Wanda teleports behind Mara and attempts to slash her across the back with her longsword, then follows it up with a close-range Arcane Blast.
"That doesn't answer my fucking question, Sarah! Why are you deliberately breaking our deal with the Assassins?!" she outright screams at Sarah. "Have you lost your goddamn mind, or have you just been so starved for a fight to the death that you'd put your family and innocent lives at risk for the sake of mindless battle?! Was Missingno's demise not enough for you?! Or is this simply an attempt to relive your younger days, back when you actively fought against threats to the Arena, extremely dire consequences be damned?!"

After the double punch, Mara gets punched in the gut, stepping back in pain, but surrounding herself with a barrier when she's pulled back towards Sarah. As such, her sweep won't sever her horn, but it will break through her forcefield, leaving her visibly surprised.
Then she laughs.
"You're from the future, yet you don't understand? I guess I was pretty secretive in your timeline. Worthless, you call me. No, I'm more necessary than you'll ever be!"
She then attempts to grab Sarah's face and, if successful, will conjure up a big explosion. If not successful, she'll conjure up a sword out of said arm instead, and do a sweeping motion in an attempt to cut her.
Hub, taken by surprise, gets hit in the face with Mjolnir and sent flying. However, as he lands, he slows himself down by planting his hands into the ground, then launches himself forward again, and attempts to use his charging speed to his advantage to punch GE!Thor right in the gut.
Just as GE!Wanda's attack is about to hit Mara, a second Hub suddenly teleports in, tanking the attack with his body. This Hub is at base form though, and as such is badly hurt, though still retaliates with energy blasts to the face.
Nevertheless, while two Hubs being present wouldn't make much sense to anyone from this timeline, Sarah, GE!Wanda and GE!Thor, being from the future, should not only know exactly how this is possible, but also realize that this means trouble.

Sarah doesn't bother answering Wanda, instead leaping in to get caught by Mara, with her getting visible tremors as the explosions shakes her body ! She then walks back and... reveals only some burns on her body, as she stares down at Mara with a withering glare.
"Is that all ?" she says, having used more of her power to tank the explosion. "I guess I'll have to end this quickly before you get another chance to humiliate yourself in front of your colleagues." she says, gathering power in her fists, briefly coating them in Limit Breaker to show that she means business.
"One." she says, before smashing her two fists at Mara, hitting with supreme power. If Mara were to be hit, there's some HUGE damage at hand !
Meanwhile, Tesekh and Loki are spectating from afar.
GOOD IDEA, LOKI. he says telepathically, as Loki spectates the fight from afar himself.
"Yep, the two ladies fight, their friends get involved and you get a fat load of chaos. Should I erect a wall to keep anyone else out ?"
NO NEED. says the dark entity. THEY WILL FAIL TO CHANGE ANYTHING. ONE OR A THOUSAND, THEY ARE MEANINGLESS.
"Hoho, a pretty godly point of view... for a being such as you, who..."

GE!Thor meets Hub's punch head-on with a swing of Mjolnir, the impact causing a shockwave. Afterwards, he attempts to uppercut the Assassin into the air with his hammer before unleashing a mighty burst of lightning at him.
Running at the wounded Hub clone, GE!Wanda deflects each laser blast with her sword, attempts to slice his buster in half upon closing the distance, then goes for a decapitating strike. If successful, the end result will look something like this.
◊
Regardless of the results, she enchants her blade with Arcane Magic afterwards, then wordlessly teleports right in front of Mara and launches into a barrage of swift slashes. Given that Sarah wasn't listening to her anyway, she decided that she would question her friend after the fight was over.

Loki prepares to counter but seemingly get surprised by the shockwaves... and get bitten in the throat, with Storm Weaver ripping out a huge chunk of it ! He screams his heart out as he clutch the huge gap, struggling to breath as he collapse on the ground, with a quick pool of blood forming around him.
"no.... how could I... a god....."
...
Then, Loki promptly melts into a green goop, and its likely that the blood and "neck" part will do so as well. The goop is harmful and extremely nasty to taste. The real Loki, meanwhile, is standing there, hands in his pockets.
"My my, you've gone quite mad, attacking the air like that ! But, who knows, maybe if you aim a bit more accurately... I'll be forced to actually, easily shrug off your attacks !"
