New story yaaaaaaay. Probably gonna be delayed like Dark Elsword- /shot

/flops

It was a peaceful day in Elrianode, no demons, no Henir Fanatics, no Henir-twisted monsters. Just sunshine and rainbows. Also the giant slab of Henir in the sky as well. The revived sanctuary was restored to its full glory thanks to the El Search Party, who just emerged from the Forgotten Elrian Sanctum. Exhausted from the fight with Chrysalis and themselves, they hobble back to the building they were given to sleep at. Despite being exhausted, they explore themselves as they unlocked more of their potential, as well as wondering how their appearance somehow changed mid-fight with themselves, as well as using a skill they've never had or thought of before.

"We're getting a lot of stares...", Elsword mentioned as he notices the townspeople staring at them. "Do we look funny to them for something?"

Aisha looks around and notices that a lot of females are staring at him. "They're staring at you, idiot."

"Whaaaaaaaaat? Why?", he asks. He then looks down at himself. "Oh, ooooh... Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh... Well it keeps me cool from the summer heat!", he stands up straight with his sword on his right shoulder, then starts leaning to his right as he's too exhausted to stand up straight. "Well I can say the same for you, Aisha. Your clothing is just as revealing."

"Wha-", she looks around and notices a lot of stares from the guys. "Hmph! That just means I look good!", she flaunts. "Gotta thank Angkor for that!"

"I could really go for some Fantasy Shaved Ice... That sounds really good right now..." Rena sighs, then inspects the engraved green markings on her body. "Still, I can feel a new wind within me."

"We've all gotten stronger.", Raven inspects his new blue blade and arm. His new nasod arm looks far more human-like. "I feel more at peace now."

Eve just types away in her hologram computer, with Moby and Remy at her side. "Code: Ultimate, the strongest code a nasod can take. I have achieved it."

"Hmph. Demons are no match for us now.", he inspects his new Phantom Shooters. An upgraded version of his Silver Shooters, the Phantom Shooter consists of two barrels per pistol, as well as a reinforced framing to handle tougher battles. This allows him to shoot faster and faster as well as dishing out much more damage to his enemies.

Ara just chants to herself about becoming stronger and killing more demons, only to break from her trance when Rena mentions Fantasy Shaved Ice. "Huhu, now I want some."

"Sorry if I make all of you sweat... Controlling the raw power of fire is tough, but I'll manage.", Elesis says apologetically. "If only we didn't run out of items during the fight with that...thing, and ourselves.", she sighs.

Add just types away in his hologram computer as well, instead of walking, he sits on Apocalypse, cross-legged. "If I can't have a perfect world... Then I'll create it!"

"Uuuuu! I want Fantasy Shaved Ice now!", Lu exclaims. She then looks at Add's dynamos. "Your dynamos are very... cubey..."

Add looks down at Lu, he then smiles, "Keke, cubes are perfect when it comes to my nasod technology and research. It brings out the strongest of my technological abilities! Also cubes hurt if you think about it."

Ciel inspects his appearance as well as Lu's. He then ponders, wondering why they're dressed like that. He then came to the conclusion that since Lu in the past summoned demons left and right, commanding them to attack and so forth, it was to reference a high ranking military officer. But then he had another thought, a rather strange thought. "...Are we a mothertrucking Jojo reference?"

Rose just silently walks alongside the party, looking at the ground, her black and red conical hat blocking most of her face, leaving only her lips visible. Since she just recently joined, she's only acquainted with them right now, but her mindset may change that later on. Though she lifts her head when Rena mentions Fantasy Shaved Ice.

The only one who isn't tired walks up to the front of the group. "I'll buy us some Fantasy Shaved Ice, if that is what you want.", he then walks off in another direction, his whitish blue hair flowing along, his divine god-like apperance, and stoic but soft attitude, earning himself fangirls around him.

"Ain wait up!", Elsword attempts to run to follow, but manages to only limp-jog.

Everyone follows suit as Eve sits back and waits for the organic party members to grab some shaved ice. She sits and continues typing away, a few minutes have gone by and she sees the group walking towards her with Fantasy Shaved Ice in their hands.

"So good!" Rena squeals in delight after every bite she takes.

"Ah, I can feel myself being energized already.", Elsword takes another bite of his shaved ice.

"Don't eat it too fast or else you'll get brain freeze!", Aisha pokes Elsword's temple as she says that.

"Owww...", Lu holds her head with one hand.

"Brain freeze already?", Ciel pats Lu on the head. Slow down your eating, and I'll bake you cookies later."

As they near Eve, a pool of shadow suddenly appears behind Eve. The shadow springs up into a humanoid figure only to reveal a villain the party fought long ago.

Ara's eyes light up in happiness, sadness, and disturbingly, lust. "Ah, brother Aren~!"

The figure chuckles menancingly, then grabs the tired Eve from behind, locking her in a standing rear choke. Moby and Remy attempts to attack him fail as he sends them away via a dark shockwave. "And who do we have here? The El Search Party. Quite the reunion."

"Ran!", Elsword drops his shaved ice and pulls his sword off of his back and into a fighting stance, sword out front, though he barely holds the stance as his energy and magic reserves are still low.

Eve struggles to free herself from the hold, but to no avail. Ran himself has gotten stronger.

"Nah ah ah. If you come any closer, I'll drag this Nasod Queen into the depths of the Demon Realm. You best stay back.", Ran chuckles. "Though it would be interesting to see what the little Queen is capable of.", he caresses Eve's chin, then smiles sadistically.

Screams could be heard from the townspeople running away from the powered up demon commander. The party ready their weapons, preparing to fight Ran once again, only to see Ran slowly drag Eve into a Gate of Darkness.

"Eve!", Elsword runs towards the gate, trying to reach out to her, but it was too late. She was too deep in the already closing portal.

Eve could see Elsword running towards the portal, arm reaching out, but the image becomes disturbed like a rushing flow of water, then disappears as the gate fades.

Ran lets go of Eve and lets her free fall into a valley of rocks. "Have fun in the Demon Realm.", he then disappears into a black smoke.

Eve falls, only to slow down the fall with her thrusters. She gently lands on the ground. Surrounded by rocks and fire, she looks around to spot...rock and fire. "Moby, Remy, come out.", she attempts to summon her two drones, but nothing happens. "It has appeared my ability to summon nasods has been disabled in some way. I'll have to repair it later."

She then sets out alone.

No fellow nasods.

No El Search Party.

Alone.

Through the depths of the realm.

To find her way out.

Last part felt rushed but bleh :C
