Helter Skelter

Downtown Los Angeles

"Something's going down tonight, I can feel it." Said a female voice as she held her binoculars to look around the area. "I'm getting visual, someone's up at the rooftop."

At night, at the hot underground club called Diamonds where there was a line this evening for a concert inside. There were once all the hip young people are in line, the ticket master opens the doors for them to rush inside the club. It was a small time, one story music store but at the back alley is where it leads to the club underneath.

Inside the club was a tall man with long brown hair, blue eyes, a big mouth with pink lips with red lines down from his eyes. He wore a white open chested shirt with a red jacket, red spandex cape and black boots. He wore a black hat with yellow large feathers on top. He is currently getting ready for his concert.

"Mr. Diamante, sir. You'll be up in five minutes." The manager of the club told him as he's getting pampered by his groupies.

"Thanks for notify me, darling." Diamante replied as his groupies finishes up. His phone buzz as he dismisses his groupies, looking at his latest Osberry, a phone made from Oscorps, he looks to see the text from someone named Jacques.

J: Spotted a girl in chainmail that is on the other side of the building. Is she the one?

Diamante smirks, as he texted back "Give it a clean death, but not too messy." He said but then paused for a moment as he adds "You know what? Go nuts!" he sent the text, as he placed his phone on the make-up table. "Time to rock n' roll." He said as he grabs his guitar.

Outside, on the other side of the building was Rebecca. She looks at the club, three buildings across the street from the roof she's on. She saw two guards guarding the alley door. From the looks of them, they seem to be from a street gang. Hired help they must be. She jumps from roof top to roof top stealthily as she is now on the building in front of the club.

"Yo dawg, you won't believe what happ'n to me." Said the one guard. "I was hangin' with this sweet honey, and she had a fine booty fo' a white chick."

"She sounds mighty nice, and delicious." The second guard replied unknown that Rebecca's on the roof of the club.

"But you know what she did? She dang fuckin' ripped me off, man! I asked her for a blow, but she took my money and ran off!" the first guard rants "If I ever see that orange-haired bitch again-." he didn't finish as the one guard hit with the butt of the sword as Gladiator Girl jumps down. The second guard was shocked to see her as she knocks him out with one punch.

"Thanks for letting me in." Gladiator Girl said as she went to bust open the door, when suddenly a lightning bolt strikes down causing her to jump back. "What the hell!?" she exclaimed as she saw someone in the dark corner of the alley.

"Not so fast, little girl." Spoke the man as he came out of the dark corner. He was a man wearing a purple mask and vest, gloves, with dark blue pants, and blue pirate boots. He also has a thin mustache. "You must be the Gladiator Girl, right?"

"Yeah, and you're the Swordsman." She replied as she held her sword and shield up "A traitor to the Avengers for working as a spy for the Mandarin, right?"

"I must be famous as I give myself credit for." Swordsman said as he held up his modified sword up "But you won't be beating me, young lady. In the circus, I'm known as the master swordsman who have trained and started Hawkeye and Trickshot. You should be honored to fight me."

"Honored to fight a second-rate swordsman?" Gladiator Girl said, making Swordsman frown.

I was thinking of giving you a clean death, but it looks like I'll have to turn in your head to my contractor." Swordsman said with a grim look. "Get ready to know your place in the world, little girl."

"Bring it on, you Errol Flynn-wannabee." Gladiator Girl replied as she raised her sword up, as she can hear the music going loud.

"Ladies and gentlemen, give it up for Diamante and the Ripples!" the announcer said as the stage spread red fog, giving the appearance of Diamante and his bandmates up on the stage as the crowd cheered for the man.

"Thank you all!" Diamante shouts as he strums his guitar "Now let us rock and roll!"

"Ladies first." Swordsman said as he stands in position.

Gladiator Girl raise her sword up as she sprints towards the swashbuckler. Swordsman's sword clashes with hers, as he pressed a button as the sword is suddenly covered in energy, blasting Gladiator Girl out of the alley and hit the street.

"Surprised?" Swordsman asked her as he walks towards her "My sword is very special. Thanks to the technology the Mandarin gave to me, this sword has many functions and tricks to use on unsuspecting opponents." He pressed the button on the sheath, as the blade of his sword suddenly burst into flames. "Like this!" he charges at Gladiator Girl by shooting fire towards her. Gladiator Girl rolled over to avoid the flames as she stands back up again.

'Crap, this guy's no push over!' she thought as she uses her shield to cover herself from the flames aiming at her. The Swordsman smiled as he switched off the flame setting. He ran down to charge at her with his sword again, this time charge with electricity. Rebecca crouch down as she puts the pressure on her feet, causing her to jump high up over Swordsman who missed her. He looks up as she did a flip over him, causing her to see her panties as her chained loincloth flaps out. Once she lands on the ground, she turns around with her sword and shield up.

"Very nice at dodging me." Swordsman comments "For a young girl who wears Hello Kitty panties."

The gladiatrix fume with a blush as she spat "They were the only ones that fit, you perv!"

"I'm not a pervert, I am a noble swashbuckler who has a gambling problem." Swordsman states, though Rebecca can see his nose bleed.

"That nosebleed speaks otherwise!" She shouts as she is suddenly in front of him, as their swords clashed.

As Diamante finished his song, he looks up at his audience with a large grin "And that was the song I wrote 20 minutes ago, "Buzz Kill!" Diamante shouts as the crowd cheers for him "Now ladies and gentlemen, this next song is more of a cover. For you see, this will be the 10th year anniversary of that frightful day, a day that Dold Riku shot down and killed all of those poor people he's responsible for." He lets out fake tears as the audience booed at the mention of Riku. "But it was that day my colleague, Dofflamingo Donquixote, has stopped Riku's rampage and have him executed that monster in the chair!" he announced as the audience cheered.

"We love you, Diamante!" one fan girl cried out.

"We love D-Flamingo!" a fanboy said.

The guitar starts to play as Diamante taps his foot. The music plays as Diamante starts to sing "Heroes".

"I…wish you could swim…"

Rebecca jumps at each side of the walls, as Swordsman jumps up to the rooftop. She jumps up in the air to raise her sword up, as Swordsman points his sword to shoot energy beams at her. But she deflects the beams using her cape once she twirls around protectively.

"Like the Dolphins, like the dolphins can swim…"

The two clash each other with their swords as Rebecca keeps shielding herself when Swordsman uses his trick sword. His sword shoots energy blasts, flames, lightning bolts, and darts.

"Though nothing, nothing will keep us together."

Swordsman grins as he taps another setting of his sword, this time it creates white fog around the rooftop. Gladiator Girl was shocked to see the fog surrounding her as the Swordsman is nowhere to be seen.

"Though nothing, nothing will keep us together. We can beat them, forever and ever!"

The gladiatrix looks around the fog, protectively in a defensive position. She kept her guard up as she looks around and waits for the swashbuckler's next move. She sensed something coming towards her back,

"Oh, we can be heroes just for one day!"

Swordsman was impressed by her simply dodging. As he asks her "How can someone like you can dodge my attacks without a single cut? Let me guess, photographic memory, right?" he asked her.

"How'd you…guess?" Rebecca asked him, starting to sweat and pant heavily.

"Simple, I've faced tougher opponents with photographic memory in my years as a swashbuckler. But now it looks like we have to end this." Swordsman said as he walks closer to her. Rebecca backs away from him, but she felt a bit tired, as he legs are starting to give up on her.

"I, I can remember (I remember). Standing by the wall (By the wall)!"

'My…my legs!' she thought as her legs are shaken.

"That fog gas I just spread out? It's also a knock out gas." Swordsman states as he raises his sword "The gas has some special minerals that can make my opponents tired and sleepy.

"And the guns, shot above our heads (Over our heads)! And we kissed, as though nothing could fall (Nothing could fall)!"

"And now, I shall clean your head off." Swordsman said as Gladiator Girl struggles to get up, but she kneels, thus dropping her sword and shield. Seeing Swordsman stepping in closer to her, the tip of the blade points to her helmet, as he raised it high up. "So long, Gladiator Girl. No one will remember you!"

"Oh, we can beat them, forever and ever…"

SNIPE!

Rebecca heard the sword dropped on the floor, as she looks up seeing the Swordsman's forehead bleeding. The swashbuckler then starts to fall backwards as he drops with a loud thud. Her vision became blurry, but she could've sworn that she saw someone walking towards her as her eyes closed.

"We can be heroes. We can be heroes…"

Picking up the gladiatrix and swings her over the shoulder, was a very attractive woman. She has dark olive skin, red eyes, full lips, and long black hair down to her back. She wore a skin-tight dark purple version of a fullbody uniform, with straps between her large bosoms, a pouch that holds her gun, a silver belt, a strap that holds another gun around her left shapely leg, black gloves and boot. On her left arm is a SHIELD's eagle symbol.

"Gotcha, Becky." Said the woman, securing the chainmail clad girl while looking at the now dead Swordsman 'Swordsman's down, but I need to protect Rebecca.' She looks at Swordsman's sword, an idea pops up in her mind 'Gotta make sure to look this good.'

"We can be heroes forever…

New Orleans, Heartfilia estate

The Titans charges into battle as Natsu jumps out, as he gives out a call "Finally, some action!" Suddenly, Malchior stands in front of him "Get out of the way or I'll hurt ya!" he said. But suddenly, the white-haired man grabs Natsu's face, and tosses him across the reception. "GAAH!" he shouts as he hits the music equipment.

"You are just as idiotic as the green shrimp." Malchior stated towards Natsu.

Beast Boy sneered at the prick, "Titans, engage!" he orders as Natsu jumps back to his feet.

"You'll pay for that, pretty boy!" Natsu shouts as he accidentally started the playlist on the laptop on the ground, starting to play music.

[Where have all the good men gone, and where are all the gods?]

Ichigo steps up to the battle field, as he is now engaged against Jose. Both fly high up in the air "So you're Jose." Ichigo states.

"Correct, you brat." Jose respond as he fires a blast of shadow magic towards Ichigo, who dodges the attack "From what I heard from Gajeel, you are quite troublesome, Blood Moon."

[Where's the streetwise Hercules to fight the rising odds?]

"Thanks, I get that a lot." Ichigo replied as he moves in to strike at Jose in a blinding speed, as he swing his sword down on him. But instead of Jose, it's nothing but a shadow doppelganger instead. "The hell!?" he said in shock. Thanks to his senses, he turns around and blocks Jose's shadow sword.

"Clever, very clever!" Jose states "But not clever enough!"

[Isn't there a white knight upon a fiery steed?]

At the ground, the Titans are fighting against the grunts left to right, front and back. Beast Boy changes into various animals to defend himself, as Erza and Rangiku are side by side striking at the grunts, and Rukia freezes some of the grunts.

[Late at night I toss and I turn and I dream of what I need]

"Juvia will also partake in this battle!" Juvia declares but is stopped by Jude's hand on her shoulder.

"No, Water Sprite. I have a different mission for you." Jude said to her "Go find where the Titans took Lucy. As for you Element Four, attack them and kill these vigilantes without mercy."

"Right!" the two of the Element Four said as they commence in battle.

[I need a Hero!]

Gajeel stood on the rooftop, watching the battle commence. He saw Beast Boy and Natsu, fighting side by side against the Phantom Lord grunts. As Beast Boy attacks them as a bull, Natsu shoots his fireballs at them causing them to run away with their pants on fire.

[I'm holding out for a hero 'til the end of the night!]

"That's right, run ya pussies!" Natsu roared as he is suddenly tackled by the white and black haired samurai-looking member of the Element Four.

[He's gotta be strong, and he's gotta be fast, and he's gotta be fresh from the fight!]

"Red Dragon!" Beast Boy shouts as he went to help Natsu, but is instead dog piled by a twenty of Phantom Lord members. They are then knocked out when the changeling turns into a large, T-Rex.

[I need a hero!]

Rangiku has found herself surrounded by Phantom Lord members, as she just stands in a fighting position. All she ever received from them are cat calls and wolf whistles.

"Wow boys, check out those large melons she has here!" one member states.

"Yeah, with those large melons and them legs, she would be good for the night!" another replied.

"Hey gorgeous, if you flash yo' titties fo' us, we'll consider leaving a few bones unbroken." One member states while licking his knife.

[I'm holding out for a hero 'til the morning light!]

Rangiku didn't react to their savagery perversion, as she can only smirk "Oh you boys are flattering me too much." She states as sand swirls around her. The sand escalates into a sand tornado much to the shock of the Phantom Lords "But you boys aren't my type." She states as she expands the tornado getting the mercenaries caught in the storm.

"AAAAAAAHHH! I got sand in my eyes!" one member yelled.

"I'm getting sand everywhere!" another replied in panic.

The members flew around the backyard as some flew out once the tornado. While some lands on the tables, the guy who told Rangiku to show her chest off lands face first on the wedding cake. He groans as he gets up, only for Rangiku to send a dust of sand to hit the guy in the crotch, hard "EEEEEP!" he shrieked like a little girl, as he holds his crotch in a fetal position.

[He's gotta be sure, and it's gotta be soon, and he's gotta be larger than life!]

"Scumbag." Rangiku huffs, as she noticed something strange on the ground. Something moving towards her, as suddenly a stone pillar pops out of the ground. "What the hell!?" she exclaimed as she barely dodges the pillar erecting from the ground. "I thought that only happens in honeymoons." She said to joke off from the unusual scene.

"Salut, mademoiselle!" spoke the green haired slim man who rise up from the ground, sporting a monocle. "You have a keen eye on noticing me and avoid my attack!"

[Larger than life]

Juvia looks around for Lucy after she was taken by the Titans. She spotted the T-Ship which is where Lucy is.

"There you are, you little bride!" Juvia said as she moves forward to retrieve Lucy. However, blocking her path was Rukia, who was keeping guard at the ship "Move out of my way!"

[Somewhere after midnight, in my wildest fantasy]

"Not on your lifetime!" Rukia respond as she shoots an ice beam at Juvia's shoulder.

Juvia sneered as she felt her shoulder cold "Fine!" she said as she raises her arms up, summoning the water from the rain.

[Somewhere just beyond my reach, there's someone reaching back for me]

The water starts surrounding Rukia, twirling around as the ice user touches the water, turning it into ice. "Gonna have to do bet-." She didn't finish, as she uses the ice to counter a water slicer from Juvia's watery whip from her arm. Rukia summons an ice wall from the wet ground as it blocks Juvia's water whip. She proceeds to shoot an ice beam which freezes the whip.

[Racing on the thunder and rising with the heat]

Juvia raise her hands again, this time summoning water behind her. "You are a pesky little girl, aren't you!?" Juvia asked as she creates a water twister.

"Shit!" Rukia yelled as she finds herself surrounded by the water twister. Rising up, she twirls around it as she uses her ice powers to freeze the twister. Once she burst out of it, she gracefully slides down the spiral part of the twister back to the ground.

[It's gonna take a superman to sweep me off my feet]

'Such grace.' Juvia thought as she shook her head. Not letting herself be distracted once Rukia shoots her an ice beam. Juvia blocks it with her water, thus freezing it "You can do better than that to take me down!"

[I need a hero]

"Then let's take our fight somewhere." Rukia replied as she freezes the ground into ice. She creates some icy blade from her shoes as she skates down towards Juvia and push her down. "Come and catch me!" she said as she skates down to the lake.

[I'm holding out for a hero 'til the end of the night]

Juvia scowled, as she gets up and chase after Rukia "Come back here, you ice witch!" she shouts while her rage blinded her main objective as the two are away from the T-Ship.

[He's gotta be strong, and he's gotta be fast, and he's gotta be fresh from the fight]

Erza stands as she is surrounded by dozens of Phantom Lord members. She knocks them out quickly as they all grunted out. "Just grunt work. Are there any that can fight my sword?" she is about to attack seven more, until she saw them fall down to the floor "What the-?" she is shocked to see them looking lifeless. "They're all…dead!?"

"It is appropriate." Spoke the man responsible for the grunt's deaths. He was large man, wearing a large green trench coat, orange shirt, purple scarf around his neck, red skull necklace, and black pants with wooden sandals. He seems to be wearing bandages around his eyes and a matching green

[I need a hero]

"What did you do to them!?" Erza demands narrowing at Aria.

"Simple, Scarlet Knight." he starts "I am Aria, the Air of the Element Four. I have the power of air manipulation, as I have used them to suck out the life force out of anyone. Even these grunts that needs to be sacrificed since they're in my way."

[I'm holding out for a hero 'til the morning light!]

Erza grits her teeth, looking at the large man in coldness "You'd sacrifice your own men's lives just because they're in the way!?" she growls at him. "How could you do such a thing to your own comrades!?"

[He's gotta be sure, and it's gotta be soon, and he's gotta be larger than life!]

"Now, now, let us have some fun." Aria said as he removes his blindfold, showing his full power. Erza is unfazed as she charges at him "Can you dodge my airspace attack!?" he shouts as he shoots his attack towards her, but much to his shock she is dodging "What!?" That was the last word he uttered before Erza takes him out in a single blow, without changing her armor. Aria felt his nerves cut up as he falls down to the ground, knocked out as Erza stands before him.

"I look down on those who treats their comrades like trash." Erza states as she places her sword back into her sheath "And it looks like I've taken down the garbage."

[I need a hero!]

Gajeel was watching the ruckus going on at the wedding, as Phantom Lord are battling against the Titans. "Shit, why can't these punks get out of the way? Trying to ruin my pay check." He snarled as he came up with a plan in how to deal with this situation.

Meanwhile Beast Boy knocks one Phantom Lord mercenary down to the ground after transforming into a ram. He changes back to his human form as another Phantom Lord member charges at him with a bat. "Seriously, dude? A bat?" he asked dumbfounded as he grabs the bat from the guy and hits his face with it. "You've just been bat-tized!" he states.

But then suddenly he got caught by a wire "What the-!?" he didn't finish as he is suddenly carried off from the battleground and is suddenly tossed across the mansion grounds. He screams for help but no one hears his plea as he is then tossed far from the mansion as he is dropped down across the lake at the other side of the shore. "Where am I? What just happened!?" He asked himself "Nevermind that, I gotta go back!"

"You're not going anywhere, shorty!" Beast Boy froze, in front of him was Gajeel who gives him a sinister grin as his bloodshot eyes stares down at him. "We've got unfinished business to take care of." He said with venom in his voice making Beast Boy back away. However, the changeling gets hit by the gut from the man's fist which was turned into a steel rod, making him cough up blood from the pain he received.

Beast Boy spat out the blood from his mouth as he winced, but he can't give up without fighting back! The green Titan grew big as he changes into a Triceratops, charging at Gajeel. But the Iron fueled man simply grabs it by the horns and lifts him up "You can do better than that, boy!" he mocks as he throws the large dinosaur down to the woods. The green triceratops smashed through 30 rows of trees.

Landing on a bolder the Triceratops reverts into Beast Boy. The changeling groans in pain "Oh my god…my back!" He winced, feeling his back cracked. He heard Gajeel laughing as he walks up to the panting changeling, as he hovers over him.

"You've made the same mistake in trying to fight me twice." Gajeel mocks him "When are you ever going to learn that we're two different people with different powers! Now since we're alone and your friends occupied with mine, I'm going to enjoy pummeling you until your minced meat." He grins as he gives the green Titan a dark look.

Beast Boy noticed that he's far from his friends, far from the mansion as he asked "Are we that far from them?"

"That's right, your friends won't save you now!" Gajeel replied as he pounds his own fist, cracking his knuckles. He picks up Beast Boy, noticing the bruises on his face as well as his back covered in blood, as he held him up off the ground "After I'm done killing you, I'm going to do the same with your friends." He told him.

"Thank you." Beast Boy simply said to him.

"W-What?" Gajeel asked in confusion, seeing the green boy smile.

"I'm saying, thank you for taking me as far away from everyone as possible." He replied as he grabs Gajeel's hand. Shocked, Gajeel looks into the changeling's eyes suddenly sporting feral eyes. "Now that I don't have to worry about my friends in the way, I can go all out!" he shouts.

'What the hell are those eyes!?' Gajeel thought to himself as he felt the green hand gripping his fist as it tightens. The next thing he knew, the changeling starts to grow bigger and more feral. Eventually Gajeel was thrown into the ground thanks to the form he's taken.

"You've made the mistake to target my friends!" Beast Boy snarled as he grows bigger, howling at the pain when his body expands his bones and muscles. He has turned into the one form he hasn't used in a while. The Beast.

While Rukia and Juvia were clashing, rustling up the bushes, the butler came out of hiding as he spotted Lucy. "There you are, Young Heartfilia!" he said as he rushes towards the T-Ship. Once he gets to the cockpit he finds the bound Lucy in only in her underwear. Blushing, he turns away while he unties the ropes and ungags her.

"Ooh, what happened?" she asked, still having those blank hypnotic eyes.

"Don't worry, Ms. Heartfilia. I'm here to help you." He replied as he gets Lucy back on her feet as they escape out of the T-Ship. 'As soon as we get to that room, I'm going to help you restore your memories, Lucy. This would be my chance to make a difference about myself!' he thought as he grabs Lucy's hand "There's a bunker in the mansion where we can hide for cover until this fight is over."

Lucy nodded blankly as they were about to escape, until something came to block their path. It was a white armored panther with black paws, neck and jaw. It has gray blue eyes on its white armor plated head. Black lines on its rear legs as well as a spine connected from its head to its tail.

"What the hell!?" the butler exclaimed as he falls in fright of the sight of the panther.

The panther growled as it looks at Lucy. The butler noticed this as he pulls Lucy out of the way, but the panther blocks his path. He quickly picks up a broken tree branch as he stands protectively of Lucy.

"S-S-Stand back, you!" The butler told him as the panther can sense fear.

The panther's only response to that is he bites down the tree branch. Shattering it to thousand pieces. The butler was about to scream but the panther's tail wraps around him. The next thing the butler knew, he was tossed aside like a ragdoll.

"Oh crap!" Lucy shouts as the white armored panther moves towards the half-naked blond, as Lucy is being cornered. "Nice…kitty." She said in fear as the panther charges at her, but it got punched in the face away from the blond. Lucy saw her rescuer with her eyes widen "Luke!"

"Stay away from her, you jacked up cat!" Luke shouts as he grabs the panther by the tail, spins around the creature as he let's go, sending the panther sky high to the city across the street. "You okay, Luce?" he asked her.

"I'm fine, thanks to you." Lucy replied.

"Girl, you need to cover yourself up. Aren't you embarrassed?" Luke asked while taking his suit jacket off and gives it to Lucy.

"Embarrassed of what?" She asked in confusion, still hypnotized.

Before Luke could reply, they heard of groan which Lucy realizes that it was the butler. "Oh my, are you alright?" she asked him.

"I'll…. live." he said as Lucy helps him up, recovering from the initial toss.

The three then heard a loud roar, which they turn around to see the panther coming back, jumping from roof top to roof top of the city.

"Damn, that's one kitty that puts the hell in Hello Kitty!" Luke comments, turning to the butler "You, keep Lucy safe. I'm going to deal with this cat!"

"Alright, Mr. Cage, sir." The butler said as he takes Lucy back to the mansion, as Luke runs down towards the panther with his fist raise.

"Oh great, a weirdo pops up." Rangiku deadpans. "That makes you some kind of elemental, right?"

"Oui!" he spoke with a French accent "Pardon me, but it's best if we exchange names before we battle."

"Alright, since you want to be a gentleman about it." Rangiku smirks "I'm Rangiku Matsumoto, known as Sandstorm."

"And I am Sol, but you can call me Monsieur Sol of the Element Four." Sol replied while wobbling his body around. "I promise you, Mademoiselle Rangiku, that I'll do my best in granting you a quick death!"

Rangiku smirks, thinking this guy's probably a pushover. 'This will be easy.' She thought "I dare you to try!" she sends a sand wave at him.

"Non, non." Sol summons another stone pillar to block the attack. As he dives underground, but once Rangiku sees this, she places her hand on the ground to loosen it up. The ground starts to shift around as it turns into sand, causing him to stop from going underground halfway. "Yeee!" Sol shrieks in pain "You are obviously a dangerous opponent for someone like me." He comments while getting away from the sand once he resurfaced.

"Typical." She said as she sends more sand attacks towards Sol, but as it hits him he shatters. "Huh?" She asked in confusion, as popping up from the ground were more Sols appearing from the ground "They're more of him? But that would mean that they're all statues!" she states.

"You are right, mademoiselle! But you can't tell the difference between us!" Sol comments through his mocking, as his hands glow as many rocks and boulders levitate and sends them towards Rangiku. "Roche Concerto!" the many Sols enchanted.

'Shit!' She cursed mentally, as she blocks each bolder from attacking her. She raises her sand to block the rocks and boulders in every direction. She has managed to dodges them. Unfortunately, she can't dodge them all as the rocks hit her shin, follow by another on the back, and a boulder hit her in the stomach. She gasps in pain as she held her stomach, crouching down on her knees as she felt the boulder hit her hard.

"Oh, is mademoiselle feeling hurt that she has underestimated moi?" the Sol statues mocked in unison as they smirk, "Let us help you feel better! Platre Sonata" they sang as they summoned a giant clenching fist towards her. "With a good pounding!"

Rangiku was nervous at the sight of the fist, she had disgracefully underestimated this guy as she makes a note to never judge a whisky bottle by its name. She tactically moves out of the way once the large fist quickly launch down to her spot.

"Oh, nice dodge! Looks like you are as quick as a vixen, oh mademoiselle." Sol pouted.

"You talk too much." Rangiku states, then she noticed something moving around the ground. She feels her right foot covered in something as she looks down "My foot! I can't move my foot!" she states as she realizes the ground had circled around her foot and ankle, trapping it down.

"Good." Sol smiled evilly, as he appears in front of Rangiku after popping out from the earth "Now let's see what nasty memories you have there." He said in a sinister tone as he grabs her head. His hand glows yellow causing Rangiku's eyes widen.

"What are you doing!?" She demands as she couldn't move suddenly.

"Why I am taking a peak at your deep, darkest memories." Sol respond, as his monocle shines making Rangiku felt her body shut down once something from her past resurfaced.

Natsu was smashed through the wall of the mansion, sending him inside the building into the living room, smashing into the fireplace and gets covered in ash. Natsu coughs out the disgusting taste of the ash in his mouth and stands up.

"Hate the taste of ash," He said. "Not as good as fire."

"Impressive," His opponent said, entering through the hole in the wall with a smug grin. "You're tougher than I thought if you could take a fire blast like that."

"No amount of fire can damage me," Natsu stated. "So hit me with your best shot."

"Your funeral. But before we continue our fight, let us introduce ourselves. I am Totomaru of Element Four." The Phantom Lord introduced.

"Natsu Dragneel, also known as Red Dragon." Natsu replied.

"A pleasure," Totomaru said and raised both hands and fired upon the pinkette. He smirked thinking this battle was his to win having put all his power into this one hit. But then to his surprise, the fire was being sucked into Natsu's mouth. "What?!" He cried out in shock.

"Yummy," Natsu said after swallowing the flames. "Thanks for the dinner. I haven't eaten since breakfast today."

"What the hell are you?" Totomaru demanded to know.

Natsu smirked and replied. "I'm a dragon slayer. Fire dragon roar!" He cried out and spat fire from his mouth. However, the flames suddenly split, missing Totomaru. "What the shit?" Natsu spat in confusion.

"I'm fire user to, you idiot. You're flames are as ineffective against me as mine to yours." Totomaru explained as he drew his katana. "And seeing as we cannot fight each other with our own powers, then perhaps this battle can be decided by melee combat." He said and held his katana in defensive position, sporting a confidence grin.

"Fine. That works as well for me." Natsu said with the same confident grin.

Totomaru initiated the attack, his sword forward with a mighty thrust as he let out a battle cry. However, much to his surprise, Natsu caught the blade of the katana between the palms of both his hands. "What the…?!"

"That's it?" Natsu asked with a raised eyebrow. "That's all you've got?" He said as Totomaru used all his strength to try and get his katana out of Natsu's grip but it wouldn't even budge.

"Why won't it … move?!" He growled as he was sweating from the struggle.

"Clearly you don't have super strength. I however can lift over ten tons." Natsu replied before kicking Totomaru in the gut, causing him to gasp out all the air and was sent flying throughout the mansion. "Well that was disappointing." Natsu said. but then he heard a pair of clapping hands. He looked to his right and saw Malchior standing at the entrance of one of the doors. "You," Natsu spat, preparing for another fight.

"You're a tough one. But you'll fall like everyone else. I'd figure I'd take you all out one by one, starting with you, the weakest one." Malchior said as he stepped into the large living room.

"You're in for a big surprise if you think I'm the weakest one." Natsu exclaimed, firing up his fists.

"It doesn't matter if you're not. I will kill you regardless and then I will kill the others as they will be tired from fighting those Phantom Lord trashes." Malchior said.

"If you think I'm going to allow you to hurt my friends, then you've got another thing coming." Natsu spat. "Not enough talking. Let's just kick each other's asses. I'm all fired up!" He cried out and went into attack.

"As am I," Malchior replied with a smug grin and started glowing and grew in size.

Natsu stopped as Malchior's new form started towering over him. "Holly shit!" He cried out.

Ichigo was flying far into the sky with José high on his tail. José fired shadow bolts at Ichigo, which he manages to dodge.

"Stay still and face me, you coward!" José spat in irritation and Ichigo heeded his word and halted his advancement towards the sky. "Finally," José said, positioning himself a few feet away from Ichigo. "So you've finally realized that fleeing is futile? And you accept your fate? I will be sure to grant you a quick death for that." José spat and fired a shadow bolt at Ichigo, who just deflected it with his sword.

"No," Ichigo spat. "I wasn't trying to escape you. I was drawing you away from the others as far as possible. I know you're an opponent I can't hold back against. When I go all out I can't guarantee that I won't hurt someone I care about. So I need to draw a guy like you away as far away as possible." He explained. 'That's really the only reason Sinestro was able to beat me so easily.' He thought, thinking back to the bank robbery.

José glared at Ichigo for his explanation. But then he started laughing, confusing the Japanese teen. "You talk as if you stand a chance. Allow me to show you just where you stand in the food chain." He said, extending his right arm sideways, summoning purple energy in a spiral. "Try my Dead Wave!" He spat and shot his hand forward, releasing a large destructive wave of darkness magic.

Ichigo however raised his body long katana. It started glowing dark red and then he swung it forward, unleashing a powerful wave of dark red energy. The two attacks collided, resulting in a massive explosion, forcing the two to back away by the force.

The blast was heard from the ground and many people looked into the sky and saw the enormous explosion. Among the people who were distracted from the blast was Luke Cage, whose clothes were tattered. He was holding a tree which he was using against the silver like panther. As he was distracted from the blast, the super panther took advantage of his distraction and went into attack.

"Wow there. Bad kitty." Luke said and swung the tree on the panther, knocking it to the side.

Back in the sky, José was glaring at Ichigo, a few bruises visible on his face. "What the fuck was that?" He demanded.

"That was my sword's power. When I swing it all of my energy is absorbed and released in a blast of pure energy. That gives it an incredible swing. The name of that attack is called Getsuga Tensho. Which means Piercer of Heaven in Japanese." Ichigo explained.

"What an arrogant name," José hissed. "I see now that you will be as easily beaten as I thought you would be." He said and so his hands started glowing. All of a sudden, several purple ghosts like creatures appeared. Ichigo was starting to look nervous. "Now you will know death!" José spat and sent his ghosts to attack Ichigo all at once.

Lucy and the butler made it back to the mansion, which was being decimated from the battle. The butler led Lucy down the basement, holding her hand while Lucy was using Luke's jacket to cover herself as much as possible.

"We're almost there, Miss Lucy." The small man said and they reached some metal doors at the bottom. "In here," He said and opened up the doors after typing in some code on the panel next to the doors. 'Good thing I saw the combination code when I spied on Jude.' He thought.

Lucy rushed in followed by the butler. "Will we really be safe in here?" She asked but then saw the chair in the middle of the room. "Why does this place look familiar?" Suddenly, she felt a sting to her arm. "Ow," She cried out and held her right arm that had just been stung by a tranquilizer gun. She looked at the butler who was holding the gun. "Hana? Wha-what…oh…" She mumbled before drifting into unconsciousness. Lucy fell and hit the floor hard.

"Oops! I forgot to grab her before she fell!" The butler cried out in panic. She went to pick her up and started dragging her to the brainwashing chair. "Hopefully she will recover before she comes to it in ten minutes." He said while dragging her. "Man, I really should start working out." He panted while placing her and the chair. "Let's fix that memory of yours." He said and went over to the control panels. "Oh, I hope I don't mess this up."

Gajeel backs away as he swallows his gulp. The Beast's fists pound to the ground as it stares at him intensively, but Gajeel wouldn't back down. "You think that scares me? I've taken on the Abomination! And he's as strong as the Hulk!" he sneered. But at an instant, the Beast roared as he came in front of Gajeel, then grabs him by the head. He struggles from the grip as the Beast did the fast ball special and throws at him several yards away "GAAAAAHHH!" Gajeel screams as he is then suddenly thrown down in the lake, the shallow part.

Floating down Gajeel was given in to some thought 'That kid has some hidden tricks up in his sleeve.' He thought as he shook his head as he begins to feel the water in his lungs 'No! I can't just give up! I needed that money, I need it, for her…" A flash of memory in his mind shows as a child, Gajeel was one of the roughest child in an orphanage, where he would start fights with the other kids. Many kids and adults refuses to go near him, but one girl stood up for him. Since then he grew fond of her, even though she got adopted by a parent he left the orphanage to find her, as her foster mother let him stay at their barn. They grew up together and have good times, until the girl fell ill and is in critical condition due to a disease she has contacted. Since then, he joined Phantom Lord to get enough money to pay for her hospital bills 'I can't give up! I've come this far for her, and I can afford a cure for her!' he swims back up to the surface 'Once she's better, I can see her smile again! Alright, ya brat, you're in a world full of hurt!' he thought as he made it up to the surface as he breathes in, spitting out the water.

Once he swims back up at a high speed, he made it to shore. However, he saw the Beast was already in front of him once again, surprising him. "Alright, asshole. Time to get serious!" he shouts as he forms his right hand into a chainsaw, and his left an axe. He starts swinging around at the Beast like a maniac as the Beast dodges every strike. "Stand still!" he glares in frustration and the Beast keeps avoiding his opponent. However, the Beast lands a hit to his face, scratching him across the face. "GAH! SON OF A BITCH!" he growled, as he held onto his face. Gajeel has four scars across his face but he didn't let it sway "You're fur coat for this!" he shouts as he swings his axe at the Beast, who simply grabs both of his arms and shatter his weapons turning them back into his regular arms, "Grr, you are a pain in the ass!" Gajeel states but the Beast grabs him on the shoulders, and throws him into a large tree stump. Just as he crashed into impact, the Beast jumped over to pin him against the tree as he roared at him.

"RRRAAAAAAAAOOORRRRRR!" The Beast roared his mighty roar, showing dominance.

"You call that a roar? This is a roar!" Gajeel said as he breathes in, and then unleashes a more powerful roar to get the Beast off of him. "Iron Dragon Roar!" he roared as the Beast is knocked off by the roar of scraps of metal, and nails. "Alright, now we're talking!" Gajeel jumps near the Beast as he grabs it by the throat and the wrist of his left arm. He then spun around and toss the Beast into a large boulder thus shattering it. Then Gajeel's arms turns into swords as he approaches the Beast. The green goliath got back on his feet, Gajeel yell as he swung his bladed arm at him, but the Beast dodge the attack "Stand still!" He shouts as the Beast just slash his torso. Ignoring the pain, he tries to slash at the Beast's legs but the behemoth did a backward flip up high. When Gajeel looks up, he couldn't find the Beast on sight. He looks around, the Beast is nowhere in sight! Until the behemoth lands behind him. 'Gotcha!' he thought as he spun around quickly as he tries to stab the Beast, who just moves out of the way. "Motherfu-. " he spat out blood once the Beast dug its claws into his abdomen, making him gasping in pain. 'This guy, this Beast, is faster than any animal, stronger than any animal, just what is this kid? Is he really the same shrimpy green guy of the Titans? He must be some kind of trump card or secret weapon, no wonder why he's made leader in Titans Los Angeles.' He gave a grin as he manages to grab the Beasts' arm 'But that won't change the fact, I'm going to do this for her! Even if it takes my last breath!' he reaches his swordarm as he manages to dug into the Beast's gut.

"AAAAAAOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" The Beast howled in pain like a wolf.

"That's for calling me Iron Maiden." Gajeel said as he turns his fist into iron and relentlessly punches the Beast across the face and his bleeding gut. The Beast tries to strike at Gajeel again, but this time the iron mercenary turn the side of his left arm into a saw, and blocks the blow, which caused the Beast get stuck into his arm leaving blood all around the grass, splatter all over Gajeel's left side. "Time to end this!" He grins as he prepares for a bigger iron roar, with the thought 'You fought well, I give you that. But too bad that this fight is ending on my favor!'

But just as he was about to breath out, the Beast grabs his mouth to cover his roar. Gajeel was shocked as he panics, but unfortunately, his roar exploded inside of his mouth. The black-haired man drops to his knees after the Beast lets him go; he gasped as blood came pouring down from his mouth. Throwing it up as the sick scent made him lose his blood some more. However, the Beast wasn't done as it stomps onto him and grabs his arms, and bites his shoulder.

"GAAAAH!" He cries in pain, as the bite leaves a bloody gash. "STOP! STOP IT, PLEASE!" he begs the Beast but he looks like he wants to tear him to two. But to Gajeel's surprise, the Beast did stop, as its arms moves on their own, grabbing the back on its head. "Huh?" Gajeel asked himself as the Beast roars in resistance, backing away as Gajeel crawls back from the behemoth grabbing the back of its head, crying out in pain. Gajeel look shocked at what the Beast is doing to itself.

It was pulling its own skin off from the back of its head!

"Holy shit!" he cried out, Gajeel has never seen anything like this every day. Just witnessing the Beast pulling its furred skin makes him wish he could throw up at the scene if not for his usefulness in seeing things like this daily. That and he has a badass stomach of steel.

Pulling out the large fur skin, the Beast cries out as he continues to pull the fur off. That's when he begins to shrink down, to the green Titan with his clothes tattered. "Holy crap, that hurt!" he states as he staggers backwards and hit a tree, as he slides down in exhaustion. "Pain, rushing down my body. Oh man, I did quite a number in this forest."

Gajeel lay next to him, glancing at the changeling "Mind telling me what the hell was that?" he asked, while holding his bleeding arm.

"Oh, well there was an incident on a mission facing brawn for brains Adonis, then some chemicals splattered all over me, which enhanced my unstable DNA to bring out the Beast inside me." Beast Boy explained to his opponent. "Since then I gotta keep it under its control so that when I have to fight heavy hitters, like you."

"Tsh, you really are tougher than I expected." Gajeel snarled, but he's gotta admit, that green guy earned him respect as a opponent.

"Thanks, and I've looked you up, and this Levi girl, you care about her?" He asked as Gajeel look shocked as Beast Boy continues "I know some doctors that can help cure her."

"W-what?" Gajeel asked in shock.

"I assumed that you're just some thug looking for money, but turns out you're a big softy." Beast Boy said with a friendly smile.

"S-Shut up!" Gajeel told him as he turns away in irritation.

"Tell ya what, once this wedding fiasco is over, I'll give you some recommendations on some good doctors to help cure your girlfriend." Beast Boy states as he begins to recover.

Gajeel looks at the green Titan as he couldn't sense any malice from him. "You hero types are corny ass shits."

Back in the basement, the butler had finished up working on Lucy's mind. "Oh, please don't be all messed up. Please don't be messed up." The butler begged as he stood by Lucy's side. The blonde's eyes started twitching and soon they were slowly opening up. "Lucy?" The butler said grabbing her shoulders.

"Hana?" Lucy asked as her vision cleared.

"What do you remember?" The butler asked.

Lucy was looking thoughtful for a moment then she remembered and her eyes snapped. "My dad … and that awful Malchior … they put me in a chair … this chair!" She cried out, jumping of, pushing the butler aside so he fell to the floor. "He brainwashed me. My own father." Lucy said with teary eyes. "I know he was low but I expected better of even him." She said.

"Miss Lucy," The butler said, looking away from Lucy in embarrassment. "I know you're upset but right now your friends need you."

"My friends?"

"They're all here. They're currently engaging Phantom Lord in battle." The butler replied.

"I knew they'd come for me," Lucy said with a relieved expression. She then took notice to the butler looking away from her. "Why aren't you looking at me?"

"Um … well …. you see … you're not exactly … dressed." The butler replied, blushing and still keeping his eyes away from Lucy.

Lucy looked down and only now realizing that she was in just her bra and panties. "AAH!" She cried out, covering herself. "Why am I half naked!?"

"Beats me. But here." The butler said after digging through his pocket and brought out Lucy's keys and the source of her powers. "I went and took these from your father's office before coming for you."

"Thank goodness," Lucy said, accepting the keys. "I thought Jude had gotten rid of these. Thank you so much Hanataro." Lucy said, kissing his forehead.

"Y-you're welcome," Hanataro, as the butler had been called, replied, still looking at her and was blushing even more now after the kiss. "But please, put some clothes on."

"Sorry about that," Lucy apologized before turning around and went for the doors. "I'll get dressed right away." She said and chooses one of her keys. "Gate of the Bull, I open thee, Taurus." She said and in a flash of light she was in her said form. "You can look now."

Hanataro looked at Lucy but quickly looked away and said, "That's still inappropriate attire."

"Ever the gentleman. You haven't changed one bit. And I'm glad to see that." Lucy said with a smile. But then she felt the area shaking. "I better go outside and help my friends. You find somewhere safer to hide." She said and busted open the doors with ease and rushed to battle.

Hanataro said silently to himself, "Be safe, Miss Lucy."
