Enter The Arena As Your Avatar -- The Spinoff!

Madara, having been in the Arena for a while, is surprised at how bad the damage done to it is. Never before has an invader, be it the loud-mouthed Norman Daggett or Metatron, inflicted so much damage to it. The sight of the devastated Arena and the Anti-Spiral's survival is enough to stun Madara and he's struck down with so much force that his Susanoo is wrecked along with his weapons. He smack into the ground but defiantly attempts to tear away at the vines, with his super strength allowing him to pull off the impossible and rip apart a few.

Ah... He says, when he's eventually overwhelmed and pushed to the ground, though he still tries to use his remaining gudoudama to try to slash and stab before it, too, is swallowed. All my hard-earned power so easily crushed... Curse it all... But let the history remember... With his last strength he keep his mouth freed. That the intervention of a god was needed to slay, I, Uchiha Madara!

And he's overwhelmed for good, and as vicious as he was, one can perhaps find respect in his sheer defiance.

...

Zeref sit far away from the others, kneeling and crying desperately. A jet-black aura around him fend off the veins that try to come for him, making them crumble to pieces if they get too close but not doing anything else. He's certainly not an obstacle, since the death magic is too thin to really save anything else around him.

King is already well aware of his insignificance, so the sight does little more than awe him with "oooh pretty" before he's whisked away.

Once he's back in the present, he turns to Fu. "You know I could've taken that, right?" ... "Well, that world's fucked."

As the tentacles rend everything asunder, those who are miraculously still alive, be they in the realm itself or watching the "fight" from outside, will see the entire Arena utterly shatter to pieces that are now free-floating in the endless cosmos. Those who need air have likely long suffocated or frozen in the void. Somewhere in the distance, the Anti-Spiral's form manifests, more massive than entire galaxies. It raises its arms above its head, and a pulsating dark sphere appears between them.

   "NOW, OH SO ARROGANT SPIRALS, WITNESS FIRST HAND THE TRUE RESULT OF EVERYTHING YOU STRUGGLE FOR! KNOW THAT HOPE IS NOTHING MORE THAN THE BRINGER OF DESPAIR!       NEMESIS RIP!"   

From the sphere, black squirming tendrils swirling like drills snake their way across the entire universe. They spear through planets, impale suns, tear entire galaxies apart like they were nothing more than toys. Within moments, the entire universe is reduced to a chaotic hellscape, shattered remnants of various celestial objects floating without any cohesion and rapidly decomposing into mere primordial soup. The black sphere turns into a roiling vortex into which the entire universe begins disappearing, like water going down the drain. As it consumes and consumes indiscriminately, drawing in the last fragments of the Arena, it bloats to the size of the universe, before it collapsing under its own weight into a single point and disappearing. The rest... is silence.

The Arena, at least this version of it... is gone.

All that remains is Fu's time rift, which the Anti-Spiral is now suddenly aware of.

   "... I see, Spiral lifeforms. You thought you could contain us in this simulated reality. This false alternate history that shall not come to be. I refuse to stand for this."   

It aims a tendril like a spear and stabs through the rift, forcing itself across the timeline barrier and into the Sovngarde of the present-day Arena...

Shadow Man yelps in surprise. Others who may have been present at a distance are also taken aback, but hardly even have time to react.

Sephiroth merely groans as oblivion washes over him...

The Emptiness

There is nothing left after the Anti-Spiral destroys the v4 Arena. No combatants left to do battle, no stories left to tell... That timeline is gone.

And yet, something flickers. A faint glimmer of life. This version of the Arena may have died, but it has struck back with its last gasp.

Sephiroth, the indomitable, the undying, drifts through the void as a mass of barely-conscious particles.

A feminine voice speaks to him. You must claim your destiny.

...

This is not where your story was meant to end.

...

Turn to the light, and you will...

Sovngarde

SOLDIER On (Libera Me from Hell - Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann)

The fractured time-rift cracks, then explodes as Sephiroth comes bursting out of it through the void, enshrouded in four black wings with an aura of mako energy.

He simply stands there, head down, eyes closed, no sword in sight.

   "I am not done with you yet, abomination."   

He raises his head to reveal spiral-shaped pupils, and holds out his hand to create a new Masamune from seemingly nothing.

   "As long as the Sephiroth exists, you have not won this battle."   

Spiral Seraphim (Torn from the Heavens - Final Fantasy XIV)

Sephiroth leaps into the air, does a flip, and swings Masamune in a diagonal arc, sending a massive wave of swirling, streaming green light at the Anti-Spiral!

—

"On one hand, I feel really bad for that whole timeline. On the other hand... Operation Holy Seraphim was a huge success!" Fu high-fives his unseen partner from their unseen hiding spot.

"Now it's all up to them..."

Sovngarde

The Anti-Spiral and Sephiroth aren't the only things tearing their way through reality with Spiral Power. A third rift, branching off from Sephiroth's energy, tore open a brief gap between worlds. Another Arrokryn, this one armored in a style reminiscent of a knight of Old Earth as compared to Vanicos's more advanced arcano-tech power armor, I mean, came sliding out, pulling his fist back as blue-green energy trailed off of it. His momentum carried him right towards the Anti-Spiral, who he then proceeded to attempt to punch in the face with a velocity- and spiral-boosted punch.

Sovngarde

Asura is asleep, stuck in dreaming.

However, his dream is cut by a cacophony of voices, some familiar while some not.

"A force is shattering this world. The nature, the people, everything is at stake. Even your daughter."

Then, a more clear voice. Amingo?

Amingo: "It is far too powerful for me. Especially with my current aim. I'm already helping, but the force needs to be confronted. There are others I could contact, but they are blind, and occupied. Please."

Asura awakens, looking at the still asleep Mithra.

Asura: "Stay safe. I need to handle something."

He kisses her on the head, before flying over to the figure of the Anti-Spiral in the distance, forcing off multiple bolts of energy.

Cloud Strife walks out of the Hall of Valor only to immediately come face-to-face with the sight of Sephiroth doing an epic comeback moment with the power of Mako and Spiral Energy.

... Against a monster that looks like it could dwarf Sephiroth as a threat.

"This oughta be good," he mutters, gripping the hilt of his Buster Sword and running towards the battle.

Unseen Hiding Spot

"As much as I beleive that we should assist them, I am curious to see just how strong our Angel has become. However, if things get out of hand, I will not hesitate to intervene."

King just looks up at the gargantuan Anti-Spiral.

"..."

He sighs, powers up, and WAAAG Hs forwards, a fist raised for the punching.

Percel warps in, glowering.

"This is so not allowed."

He powers up to his Augmented form before throwing a barrage of Polar Lances.

Nagato Yuki stares at the Anti-Spiral from her rift, stunned.

"... That is a massive threat."

She blitzes onto the scene of the battle and waits to make a move.

Oca Tuberosa observes the fight from his distant home. Back in the Newkverse.

"Damn, that looks rough."

"Are... are you gonna help King?"

"He'll be fine."

Ceres pouts.

Zeref also drifts through the aether, his immortality making him unable to die even as the Universe does. He weeps softly but there's nothing left for him to communicate his sorrows. He just steel himself for an eternity of drifting in oblivion, watching powerlessly as the destructor of the universe already eagerly tear his way into another.

I don't want to be alone....

Then, he hears a voice and, while wary of gods now, he refuses to let himself be the last thing in the universe, he reach as well and...

...

KRAK-A-THOOOOOMMMMM!

Multiple bolts of lightning falls above Sovngarde as a dreadful storm appears above it...

KRAK-A-THOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMM!

A particularly strong lightning bolt tear all the way from the cosmos to the Anti-Spiral, attempting to spear him through the chest with devastating power, speed and accuracy! The lightning's creator, THOR ALMIGHTY, appears above the being, floating in mid-air using a gale. His tiny Mjolnir crackles with lightning, and his words booms with the thunder.

THOU ARE NOT WELCOME HERE, ABOMINATION! RETURN TO YOUR OBLIVION WITH GREAT HASTE, OR ALLOW THOR, THE GOD OF STRENGTH AND THUNDER, TO DO IT FOR YOU! YYAARRGGHHH!

Thor throws Mjolnir like a missile at the Anti-Spiral, attempting to hit it right in the head. It packs devastating power, needless to say!

Just as the Anti-Spiral emerges into the current-timeline Arena, he is immediately battered by a whole new contingent of fighters.

   "Of course there are even more of them..."    he muses to himself as he reels from the strikes, actually clutching his head from Thor's mighty blow.    "These might be even stronger than the previous lot... and this man...    He turns to have a look at Sephiroth.    "How curious. He survived the total annihilation of that dimension? ...Impossible. Regardless, I no longer have the time to play these games. Thoughtless Spirals... Back in that doomed timeline, you sought to imprison me by showing me a world where I can be happy... but you failed to take into account that happiness itself is my foe! But you, wretched scrambling creatures, will you show the same resolve we have shown?       NEVER, NEVER, NEVER!       Your own emotions, your own desires will become your jailors! I will extinguish your will to fight, by showing you a world where you have nothing left to fight for! BEGONE FROM MY SIGHT!       INFINITE MULTIVERSAL LABYRINTH!   

A pulse of whiteness originates from the Anti-Spiral and swallows all fighters present, casting them away into so many dimensions constructed from their own minds. Within these prison dimensions, they can live out their ideal lives, with nothing left to hope or strive towards. To escape the Multiversal Labyrinth, one would need to cast aside their immediate desires and gather such unbreakable willpower that it becomes tangible enough to shatter the walls of these personal confinement planes.

Edited by Arachnos on Apr 18th 2020 at 4:41:09 AM

Sephiroth only has a moment to react to Cloud's appearance before the Labyrinth hits...

He sees himself as the god of the universe. Cloud is by his side, ruling as his right-hand man over an ideal world.

   "Do not mean to test my limits, monster,"    he says without hesitation. He backhands the illusory Cloud, which disperses.

   "I have died, lived, and died again for this dream. It is not one so easily handed to me... I am no more vulnerable than you!"    he bellows to the empty air, breaking his stoic composure and becoming genuinely Hot-Blooded.    "THIS TRIAL IS MEANINGLESS!"   

Slicing his way through the infinite labyrinth, he snaps back into the real world with a flying stab! As he travels, he infuses Masamune with darkness, but his eyes glint and the element changes to Spiral Energy, forming an ethereal drill around his blade!

Edited by KiriK on Apr 18th 2020 at 3:51:15 AM

Thor prepares to act again, but then the Labyrinth catch him, and...

...

A fang the size of a continent bear down on him, and a bloodied Thor smirks, aware that his end is coming. But then, a mysterious force guide him and he manages to get out of the way in time. Not one to let an opportunity go to waste, Thor jump towards a very surprised Jörmungandr and uppercut him, with enough force to definitely kill the World Snake. The beast's head, probably about as big as the Northern Hemisphere, shoot up before letting out a dying scream that shakes the world to its core.

Thor continues his flight and heroically seize the dead beast before, with his godly strength, grabbing the beast's jaw and using its entire planet-sized mass as a lasso. He spins it around a few times and then shoot the serpent's massive, limp body towards the deadly Fenrir, snaring the gigantic wolf by the torso as it prepares to snare Gungnir and devours Odin!

The enormous wolf's jaw, which is big enough to actually devour a planet, stop, and then the wolf's gargantuan stature is shot to the side, as Thor drag the beast to him. Summoning all his available power, he let go of Jormungandr, grab his hammer two-handed and whack the beast in the face, with such might that it's felt across the entire universe, reigniting dying stars, killing all the evil beasts summoned across the Nine Realms, causing several earthquakes across all of them and shaking the entire life-giving tree of creation!

Fenrir fall over, dead, and Thor stand over it before heading towards a very confused Loki, poised to stab a weakened Heimdall. The arrogant red-headed god turn arounds as the thunder howls,

W-what the?! This wasn't supposed to-

HAVE AT THEE!

Thor hit Loki in the jaw as hard as he can, again, and reignite more stars while finishing off whatever evil beasts still lurked in the nine realms, while also completely destroying Helheim, outright pulverizing the entire realm! Loki actually survives the attack, but is so shaken that a grinning Thor easily grab his lower jaw and break it, before shoving his hand in Loki's torso to grab his heart and, with a mighty squeeze, pulverize it!

I AM SURPRISED TO EVEN FIND A HEART TO CRUSH! He comments, before summoning his godly lightning to shock Loki about three times, exposing the god to divine electricity and frying him so hard that, when it's done, the redhead collapse into ignited dust, with his skeleton promptly shattering as well.

Hahahaha! Ragnarök is being beaten! Rally, Asgard, we will see the sun rise on creation tomorrow!

   NEVER, ASGARDIANS!   

The enormous Surtr grab unto the realm with his enormous hand and, using Vanaheim and Midgard as footholds (causing them to melt), hoist himself over Asgard, towering over all of Norse existence. Grinning, he drags his great sword across the universe, causing it to be cast ablaze. All over his sword, there are fire demons and great fire waves, which make sense, because Surtr's sword is Muspelheim!

Thor frowns in confusion.

   DIE!!!!!!!   

FATHER, THERE IS SOMETHING WRONG! WE WERE NOT MEANT TO SEE GREAT SURTR!

A giggling Odin fire all his accumulated power using Gungnir, and various gods also throws beams of energy or directly go up to Surtr's massive chin to punch it. Only Thor doesn't participate, only watching as the mighty fire giant let out a cry of pain before toppling over, letting of of the realm and falling down Norse creation. On the way down, mighty Nidhogg emerge from the rotting, burning Yggdrasil, ready to throw down... but the falling giant smash into the great dragon by accident, and both end up toppling out of Norse creation and into the great darkness, along with Surtr's sword. Ragnarök is cancelled!

Aye! A great victory! Asgard has triumphed! Let the repairs now begin!

NAY, FATHER! THE REALMS BURN BELOW! FATE... FATE HAS NOT BEEN ACCOMPLISHED! HUMANITY HAS NO PATH, AND NEITHER DO THE FUTURE GODS!

Thor grasp his hammer, and gather all his strength. Several intense bolts of lightning ignite Mjölnir, coursing through Thor's body as well.

'TIS A MOST STERILE FUTURE! THE UNIVERSE DOESN'T BELONG TO THE PAST, BUT TO THE FUTURE! THIS IS NOT THE HORIZON SET IN STORE FOR I, FOR I HAD ONE EVER SINCE I WAS BORN!

He gather all his might...

TO THY QUIET FUTURE, I SAY...

He smash, and break his way out of the Infinite Labyrinth!

THEE NAY!!!

King sees the world... exactly as it is. The main distinctions are Ceres by his side, his sitting on a mountain of cash, and Oca being humiliated offscreen.

"Waaahaha!"

He doesn't break out of his labyrinth, for now at least.

Percel... a peaceful, united world Toki Toki City. A world where the timeline is functional, where history flows as it should, where...

... where everything villainous and unpleasant about history, is exactly as it was?

"... This is wrong."

He is trapped for now, too, though.

Nagato has been through this song and dance before. She breaks out with a mildly upset frown before she starts hammering the Anti-Spiral with particle cutters.

A Forest path in Solthseim

A young man with blue hair (Not minato) walks along a forest path. The young man is wearing rather strange armor, A mix of that of a medieval knight, and Modern body armor, strangely enough. He seems to be unencumbered, however. The young man has a Familiar Sword at his left side, a combat knife in a sheath on his chest, an assault rifle slung over his shoulder, a Pistol in a holster at his hip, and another weapon, resembling a pistol, beside that, alongside pouches for ammunition.

The armor has the Yillesian brand of Naga on it.

The young man stops by the side of the road, taking out the small, gunlike object after rearanging some rocks and twigs and roots into a small campfire, and uses the weapon to... cast a fire spell, Lighting a campfire, which he sits down next to.

Sovngarde

The knight backed off and retracted his battle-mask, just in time to get sucked into the Multidimensional Labyrinth. He saw a thousand different things flash before his eyes, not one of which he accepted.

"You can't! Break! My spirit!"

He burst back into the arena with a glorious flare of spiral light, before conjuring forth a large, thick-bladed, weight glaive from seemingly nowhere.

"I am Es'Valsar, Grandmaster of the Knights of the Great Spiral, and I refuse to be your prisoner!"

His eyes shone with an emerald glow as he prepared himself for the Anti-Spiral's next attack.

Sovngarde

Cloud sees a peaceful world. He sits in 7th Heaven, Tifa bartending, and everyone he's met talking and walking around.

To his left is Sephiroth. Drinking something, he looks to Cloud.

Sephiroth: "You did it. You brought me back. You saved us all."

Cloud: "Did I? This seems..."

A flash. A reminder, from times forwards and behind. He looks over. Aerith sits, peacefully chatting with Barrett.

If what he saw was true...

Cloud: "NO! Nothing has changed! Not yet!"

He slices through his illusion bit by bit, before coming down on the fake Sephiroth, breaking through the infinite labrynth!

Asura, like Nagato, has been through this before. He rumbles with anger, breaking through without even seeing what this perfect world could be. He fires off multiple large blasts of energy at the Anti- Spiral.

Asura: "A perfect future, seen without fighting... IS MEANINGLESS! And when I see it again and again, it only manages to PISS ME OFF!"

The End of the World

   "What? You confounded Spirals are more resilient than your average lot! How can you keep your will intact, even in the face of a world where it's no longer needed? You are not merely foolish, you are insane! For the sake of every dimension, your madness must be quenched!"   

An aura of purple flames surges from the Anti-Spiral, forming the shape of a monstrous◊ titan◊ of pure Anti-Spiral energy combining elements of both demon and skeleton, standing roughly 10 meters tall. Forming an immense drill from one of its arms, it clashes with Sephiroth's strike, while a Probability Alteration pulse negates the other attacks' chance to do any significant damage. They peter out inexplicably before reaching the Anti-Spiral, or score only glancing blows, no matter how well they were aimed.

The purple aura doesn't stop there, though. It surges into the sky, burning it away and leaving the whole Arena exposed to the cosmos, just like the old Arena had been in its final moments. Thankfully, the realm's magic remains strong enough to keep the air breathable, at least for now.

The pillar of energy reaches all the way to the sun and pierces it through like a lance to the heart. The star quivers as it's overtaken by violet "veins" and explodes in a spectacular, if wildly unnatural, purple supernova, leaving a pulsating, purple-contoured black hole in its place, like a hateful eye. An "eye" that's slowly, very slowly, closing in on the world as if to take a closer look. As long as the Anti-Spiral remains in the Arena, his eldritch presence will prevent its mechanisms from naturally repairing this damage. If he is not stopped soon, the Arena could well meet the same tragic end as its echo from the doomed timeline, swallowed by an all-devouring maw.

   "NOW THEN, SPIRALS! IF YOU TRULY BELIEVE YOUR CAUSE TO BE JUST ENOUGH TO SACRIFICE EVERYTHING FOR, THEN I CALL UPON YOU TO THROW YOUR LIVES AWAY TO DEFEND IT! I WILL SHOW YOU THE TRUE FOLLY OF YOUR WAYS! DON'T BLAME ME FOR THIS - YOUR PATHS LEAD TO THE VOID ANYWAYS, I AM BUT PROVIDING A SHORTCUT!"   

~~FIGHT FOR THE WORLD~~

   "Cloud! Join me!"   

Sephiroth dashes from side-to-side, sweeping Masamune as he leaves a trail of mako in an attempt to pressure the Anti-Spiral back.

   "You called us foolish, worthless, and like children!"   

Sovngarde

"Let's see how you feel about getting disciplined!" Cloud adds as he jumps in during Sephiroth's attack with a Cross Slash, making huge sweeping slashes that leave trails in the shape of the kanji 凶 (kyō), with a chance to paralyze the Anti-Spiral!

Asura: "Shove your shortcut! I've had enough of you already!"

Asura goes for a punch to the jaw that, if connected, will have enough of an impact to cause a shockwave!

"I know they told me to stay out of this, but listening has never been quite my style."

A streak of green attempts to cleave straight through the Anti-Spiral; regardless of it's effectiveness, Defense-90 will appear behind Cloud and Sephiroth.

Defense-90: "And I sure as hell won't listen TO YOU!"

He tosses multiple balls of energy at the Anti-Spiral.

Edited by DefRevenge24601 on Apr 18th 2020 at 12:28:46 PM

Nagato grunts, before diving into the code of reality itself. She hacks around and tries to smack everyone still in a fantasy back to the battle at hand.

Percel stumbles upon being freed from his visions before powering up and blasting off, intending to fire an Arctic Nova at the Anti-Spiral. King is stunned upon being freed, but finds it in himself to fire a single weak bolt at the enemy.

Sovngarde

"You could never understand the limits of my spirit if you tried, Adversary!"

Upon the Anti-Spiral entering into this new form, however... Es'Valsar laughed a bit. "Oh, this is gonna be fun. My name is Es'Valsar — and you will remember it. Let's rock and roll, skullhead!"

He focused his power into a luminous pillar of energy, and though it was utterly dwarfed by the Anti-Spiral's power, he stood strong against the onslaught anyways. He gestured with one hand, forming a myriad of spiral-grooved spikes in the air, before suddenly throwing his arm forward, and launching a barrage of about 27 soulforged drills at the Anti-Spiral like a cloud of missiles!

Edited by OmegaShadowcry on Apr 18th 2020 at 10:17:18 AM

AYE! 'TIS A MOST POWERFUL ADVERSARY! NEVER HAVE MY EYES BEHELD SUCH RAW POWER SINCE THE DAYS OF GALEEM OR THANOS! BUT YET, I SHALL CRUSH YOU, CREATURE! YAARGGHHH!

Thunder shoot out of the "sky" and strike Thor. When he re-appears, he has a belt, fabled MEGINGJÖRŌ and two armored gauntlets, powerful JÀRNGREIPR. The first double his mighty power, and the second also enhance his already considerable strength! Since he didn't use those before, Anti-Spiral's threat must be one that he takes very seriously.

LET YOUR VILE BLOOD RAIN FROM THE SKY! ARGGHH! He says, taking off like a goddamn missile and cratering the ground. Several huge bolts of lightning strike Mjolnir as he spins it and attempts to directly smash into the immense mecha with it, using the full extent of his god-like power. The strike, if it hit, cause a shockwave that sweeps over the Arena and flatten nearby structures like trees, though it miraculously spare nearly lifeforms.

Thor roar and keep swinging, with world-breaking power! Lightning strikes everywhere around him (and sometimes tries to strike the Anti-Spiral, with godly lightning) and the ground around him, even with his actual distance from it, crumble and collapse with each blow.

Edited by Bolded1 on Apr 19th 2020 at 12:17:29 PM

The aura around the Anti-Spiral surges again as the Super Granzeboma experiences a spurt of growth, now reaching a height of roughly 20 meters. Using this new advantage, it attempts to overwhelm Sephiroth with raw force, but then the 27 soulforged drills and Thor's almighty blows impact! In the meantime, the Arena is quaking ever-so-slightly from the approach of the black hole.

   "BE STILL, WORTHLESS SPIRALS!       GRAVITON CRUSH!"   

The Super Granzeboma emits a dark pulse, and an overwhelming invisible force bears down on everybody as the Anti-Spiral warps the laws of reality like clay, awakening the full wrath of the fundamental force known as gravity. Hundreds of pounds per square inch bear down on the fighters, as if they had been suddenly warped all the way to the bottom of the sea. It's easily enough to squash the average human body like a pancake.

Edited by Arachnos on Apr 19th 2020 at 11:24:23 AM

Sephiroth falls to his hands and knees.

   "This... is nothing! I can... I can overcome..."   

He stabs the ground with Masamune.    "I can... overcome this!"   

He calls down falling meteorites from the sky, much smaller than Meteor, but faster.

Pit suddenly flies back into the fray, suited up with the Three Sacred Treasures, using the Wings of Pegasus to completely ignore gravity, and rains down a barrage of Arrows of Light on the Anti-Spiral!

Thor himself experience gravity but is able to stay on his feet, slowly overpowering the massive force keeping him at bay. He's not fast enough to his liking though, so...

IF THOR'S FISTS FAIL TO REACH YE, THEN LET HIS LIGHTNING SMITE YOU A HUNDRED FOLD! And just like that, he attempts to smite the Anti-Spiral with a colossal bolt of lightning!

Sovngarde

Cloud is affected by the gravity, just barely able to stand. He casts Thundaga, aiming to supplement Thor's lightning.

Asura stands, powering through the gravity and shooting large balls of energy, aiming for all over the Anti-Spiral's body. He then transforms into Six-Armed Vajra Asura, shooting a massive volley of smaller energy shots!

Defense-90 opens a portal on the ground, another appearing above the Anti-Spiral.

Defense: "A little gravity trick won't stop me!"

He comes down for a fist wrapped in energy.
