Well I'm glad to say people that I finally made it. Maybe it's not actually as good as I thought it was, but things kept getting in the way of its introduction until it could only be shown off at this point. Regardless, it's here and now we can enter the next level of power. Naturally, there's also someone else who's waiting for another power up coming their way... Anyway, let's go!
Super hero time!
Ex-aid: Naruto, shoot down the stars as you fight your way to the top!
Naruto: And you should show them why it's wrong to challenge the force of Gamindustri!
Ex-aid: This power is going to go crazy, so let's clear this without continues!
Naruto: Go on and make a show of it Egi!
E-a + N: Game start! Show time!
"Well, this is certainly beyond what I was expecting…" MAGES. muttered as she pulled down upon the brim of her hat, the several Purple Heart clones stood before her all brandishing their swords with robotic accuracy. Her breaths came heavy, several spells already taking up a large amount of her power; whether the remainder would be able to handle the coming battle was a question soon to be tested. Fortunately for the blue haired mad magician, Egi bolted into the room with Falcom and Neptune in close tow, a small sigh of relief escaping the battered blue haired girl as her weapon lowered, if by just a little bit.
"Wow, it's a me farm! One, two, three… me, me, me!" Neptune gasped as she brought out her own blade, the redheaded adventurer pulling her own sword with a little bit of trembling to her limbs. Knowing that Neptune was a goddess was all good in its own way, but knowing she would have to be facing several of them at once? That wasn't exactly favourable stakes.
"Well, at least you're alright MAGES.. These things didn't do too much damage to you, did they?" Egi asked in concern as a small grimace grew upon the magician's lips, a small tug at the hem of her skirt having her in much better fighting form.
"I am in a favourable state for now, but seeing our numerous opponents doesn't exactly inspire confidence in our success…" the girl stated as her staff rose in defence, several words already upon her lips. She could give it her all for a large range spell, but that would also prove dangerous with the likelihood of attacking her friends as well, and the time that would be needed casting several spells in close tandem would make defending herself more of a difficult manner, especially with how agile Neptune had proven herself to be in the past.
"Well just leave this to me! I'll show you my eight blades, one sword style!" Falcom declared as she stepped forward, not a single one of the goddess copies missing the movement as their weapons were instantly trained upon her body. It didn't take long for Egi to bring out his own hammer too, the doctor moving forward with a flourish of his hand.
"Well, let's clear this with no continues!" and with that battle cry, all of them shot forward to strike at the CPU clones. If they had all stood individually, perhaps there would've been far less challenge to the battle, the entire thing over and done with to no issue; they had already proven themselves against a single one before and it stood to reason that there wouldn't be too great a difference when compared to the other ones, right?
But numbers proved themselves to be far greater a challenge than the party could've expected. Their group proved to mean little when each person needed to deal with several different versions of Neptune after all, even the real deal struggling against the endless purple assault. Her blade flashed backwards and forwards, an unrelenting movement of steel through the air, but faced with two blades to stop the attack and several more to push on at any weak point she dared demonstrate was bound to whittle away at her hit points.
It was a similar situation with Egi, his hammer smacking away one of the fake females only to receive the swords of two more in return. With his coat getting more torn by thr second as the endless weapons slashed straight through the material, his desperate jumps having him leave only that of his coat to take the strike, it could only be so long before he joined a pained MAGES. and Falcom within the larger crowd through no fault of his own, a particularly harsh smash having him fly backwards into MAGES. vulnerable body.
"It appears that there's little we can do like this…" the mad magician bemoaned as she used the wood of her staff to raise herself to her feet once more, a clear glint of defiance to her blue orbs as the copies came forth. "No matter how many of these copies we take don successfully, it is as if several are taking their place. With such an enemy before us, we can only survive through endurance."
Egi was quick to throw his hands out, depositing the bruised Neptune to her feet before he could speak, though the same couldn't be said for Falcom as she was rolled to their position, a cute little cry escaping the adventurer. The small wisps of pixels upon the floor were a clear sign that they had been able to defeat a few of those who would stand in their way, but the numbers still proved far too great in comparison to their own measly team. They could only raise their weapons in a feeble attempt to block the incoming strike, but when several goddesses sent a torrent of purple energy towards them, there was only one way it could end.
"This is way too broken! Why can our enemies regenerate now!?" Neptune moaned, her legs collapsing under their efforts to try and rise, Ego only just managing to do as well as the others. They seemed to have a particular vendetta against him, an attack which narrowly missed Falcom launching past her to strike just beneath the heart of the rider, his body sent tumbling away from the others as they were forced to defend, unable to assist their own friend.
If there had been a chance for him to see his own health, there was no denying that it would already be reaching the lower numbers, but there was no time to check as the copies of Purple Heart slammed him down, their strikes unending as their sword was raised once more. He wasn't like the other people in this world, when he was hurt, he would bleed, the red liquid coming out of his lip as he stood shakily to his feet. There was no chance as he was of getting back, the odds too damaging when the enemies they killed were easily replaced.
"This is just like when I first started fighting alongside the others, weaker than anyone could've expected yet far greater than I could ever know…" Egi chuckled morbidly, the enemies frozen at the sound of his words. "I was even nearly killed by some poison in Leanbox, but I've been through so much since then. I've found new friends to fight alongside, I've been to new places and most importantly, I've reconfirmed my will to fight over a hundred times!"
At the reckless declaration, all battle paused, even his allies' blades and magic halted in their path as they turned to the heaving doctor, his body dirtied and torn, but he still stood strong. A hand moved to clutch at his heart, a small tear entering his eye at the pain but a blink had it shoved away, his resolve still strong.
"I thought this gashat in my driver would give the power I need, but it's still missing something! Back when I gained the power I had, the power of the God of Gamindustri, I was brought back by the power of two CPUs, but there are still two more I have forged bonds with!" Egi exclaimed, a small huff of realisation coming to MAGES., both Neptune and Falcom turning to the mad magician in questioning.
"If what he says is true, then he has gained his power from two of the goddesses. However, if he could do the same with the other two, then I suppose it would not be too strange an accusation to say he could quite literally double his firepower." MAGES. explained without need for a prompt, her staff pointing towards where the doctor clutched his shirt tighter, a gaze sent towards the box like gashat resting within his driver as e turned his head to the sky, a fierce yell released from his lips.
"BLANC! NOIRE! IF YOU CAN HEAR MY WORDS THEN PLEASE, LEND ME YOUR STRENGTH!"
As Blanc looked up from the beaten body of her doppelgänger, her hammer disappearing with a flash as it returned to the safe confines of her inventory, she could only give a little sound of confusion as 5pb paused in her mad strumming, the lightning clouds building above dissipating as the songstress turned to the white goddess.
"Lady Blanc, is there an issue?" 5pb questioned, tilting her head as a smile came upon the brunette's face, her shake of the head doing little to calm the idol as she stepped forward, Blanc placing a single hand in the air as a stern look came to her visage.
"Didn't you hear that? The call to help… if it means giving my power to someone who will actually use it for a proper reason rather than ending the world as we know it, then you damn well know I'm going to do it!" the goddess exclaimed to the air, the idol stepping backwards when the white aura began to glow around the CPU of Lowee. Without another world, the energy launched into the air, a pillar of hope as it shone through the sky without obstruction. It may have brought a little drain to the girl's body, but it would be worth it when she could see the results of her power being used for good.
Noire had let her sword slip out of the quickly disappearing body of her fake as she heard the resonating cry from the distance, Compa letting her needle fall to the ground with a grin. It had been little effort to remove the false Black Heart from her position, falling easily to the might of the true Lastation CPU and the nurse in training.
"Noire, what is that?" Compa asked as she looked around, the source of the desire completely invisible, but that didn't stop the smirk that appeared upon Noire's face as she raised but a single delicate hand to the air, an immediate surge of black aura gathering around the appendage to Compa's sound of awe before it launched into a black beam flying towards an unseen target.
"I can hear it, someone who needs my help! Well use this and see what you can do and be thankful!" Noire jovially screamed as she forced more power to the beam, no time wasted with the thought of someone misusing her power or even wondering how someone would be able to send a message of help that far. There was someone who would be able to fight on with her power and thus she would respond; a CPU was meant to help those in need after all.
The roof of the cave they were in did little to stop the gently fusing beams of white and black, the energy flowing through metal supports without issue before slamming down onto Egi's body, a new vitality entering his body as his stance grew stronger, his bruises fading away as if a healing spell had been placed upon his very being. Neptune and the other girls could only watch in surprise as a similar energy began to flow from her body as well, a green version of it joining in no time at all to coalesce upon the doctor's body, his arms crossed upon his chest as a growl built in the rider's voice.
"If you think that we will be so easily defeated now when your giant faker of a god was unable to do so, then you have another thing coming!" Egi roared as his arms flared out, the power all flowing into the large gashat within his driver, the very being of the game morphing before their very eyes as the fake Purple Hearts all moved away to avoid the great burst of pure power that would've no doubt eviscerated them.
The gashat changed from its boring grey to take on a golden hue on the majority of the body, the small silver top section popping upward to reveal the navy helmet of the Gamindustri gamer within the gashat as the face image began to change, the blank label now given the image of a chibi version of Ex-aid battling alongside similarly chibi goddesses, the title emblazoned in flame as the logo. Flipping the object so the blue lined black cartridge area pointed upward, a smirk came to the doctor's face as he pressed down hard upon the golden button, his promise open to the world.
"If you think you're just facing the God of Gamindustri, then I'm glad to tell you that you're gravely mistaken! There's not just me fighting right now, but a-!"
FORCE OF GAMINDUSTRI! REVOLUTION NEXT!
And as the game screen burst to life behind him, several different energy items threw themselves around the mechanised cave as the Purple Heart clones scattered to avoid the debris, Egi's arms crossed as he held the gashat out, ready to push it into his driver.
"You better get ready for this! Max gattai-henshin!"
CPU GASHAT!
GATCHAA! GOD MAX!
KYUKYOKU CHIKARA GATTAI! (REVOLUTION!) GO GAME HEART! IKUZE GAME START!
KYUKYOKU CHIKARA GATTAI! (REVOLUTION!) GO GAME HEART! IKUZE GAME START!
As the hologram showing a strange bulky body moved out before him, a hand reached forward to strike the revolving portraits, hitting the face image of the Gamindustri gamer for the picture to settle into the head of the hologram as it fell back on his body. Now clad in his God of Gamindustri armour, he could only look to the air as several orbs of power hovered above him, their rapid rotations soon leaving only a great robotic version of his goggles, silver spikes upon the top shining as it lowered. With a press of the button upon the top, the head of the gashat was hidden once more, the headless body changing colours upon the gamer driver's screen suddenly gaining a blue head upon it.
As soon as it reached an acceptable level, Neptune let out a cry of amusement as Egi leapt into the quickly opening robot, silver arms leading to the gold clad gauntlets, fingers of navy flexing as they were raised. Silver legs were next to come, thick shin and thigh protection of gold appearing upon them as the large heavy boots of night colour sent small tremors through the ground. With the silver spikes upon the top opening up, Egi's helmeted head was able to poke out, the eyes upon the front of the frankly ridiculous armour blinking away to leave just a single white power symbol upon the front.
WE-ARE-THE! FORCE OF GAMINDUSTRI! NE~XT!
"This is a power unknown to any until now…! Kamen Rider Ex-aid Force gamer – level God max!" Egi declared, his right fist held out for the Gashacon Slicer to fall into. With a single swipe of the blade, several of the copies were eliminated in a single strike, what would normally be incredibly difficult to wield with such a bulky body proving nothing when the limbs could easily stretch to cut away at any of the clones that threatened to come too close to the girls. As they regained their footing, it wasn't long before the numbers had dwindled greatly, a clear view of the one creating the extra copies now found as their resolves steeled.
"Egi, looks like you've done a little body building there!" Neptune cheered, Falcom letting a small drop of sweat fall down the front of her face as a finger hesitantly scratched her cheek.
"Well, maybe I wouldn't phrase it like that, but I can feel the power that mech suit has from here! With this, there's no way we could possibly lose!" the adventurer concurred, her own sword raised valiantly into the sky as she narrowed onto her target. "Now, let's see what it can do!"
"Understood. I shall join you with this final fight naturally." MAGES. added, her own hands glowing with a mystical power. "Let's end this farce once and for all."
"Right! I'm going to change our fate with my own hands!" Egi exclaimed, te phrase a new cry to launch into battle.
B-B-BAKIII!
The swords easily bounced off of Egi's new armour no matter the number that attacked him, more and more of the copies falling to his bullets until there were but a few remaining. The one who had been producing the copies from their own body showed no reaction to the serious depletion of their forces, merely acting upon the soul order it had been given, even as Egi placed his gashat into the weapon in his hands.
GASHUUN!
CPU GASHAT!
KIMEOUJA!
FORCE OF –GAMINDUSTRI! CRITICAL FINISH!
The resultant glowing blast actually did little to the producer Neptune in all realities, barely a blink given before it tried to return to the task it had been given. Key word being tried, for no matter what it attempted, there was to be no more fakes produced, a small chuckle escaping Egi as he threw away the weapon, letting it dissolve back into his inventory without a second thought.
"And with that out of the way, there's nothing stopping us now!" at the Doctor rider's bark, MAGES. rapidly let the flames loose upon two of the Neptunes, barely second wasted before a quick slice from Falcom's blade had them disappearing without another word. The true Neptune's cry was heard throughout the cave as four fell to her spinning strike, the girl unable to stop her rotations before landing on her butt, a small moan escaping her.
"I swear someone else did that before!" the girl groaned as she rubbed the sore area, the small vibrations given by Egi's movements doing nothing to help, but she didn't let that stop her from cheering as Egi closed the driver's lever and pulled it open once more, how such a mighty armour could fly so high into the air being a mystery to be solved another day as his mechanical foot was covered with navy energy, the power symbol upon the chest plate blinking away as it was replaced by the words 'Ready?'
'Go!'
FORCE OF – REVOLUTION CRITICAL SURGE!
And game pause! Lovely, isn't it? I suppose that little error of God of Gamindustri only using two different goddesses to power it must've gone under some of your notices, so now there's a lovely little resolution for that. Still, there's more to come naturally... So please look forward to that when it comes to it!
Super hero time! See you next time!
