Commander Shepard aimed her shotgun down the long obsidian hallway, eyes tracking for any threats as the rest of the insertion team deployed behind her. Galen, Sarah, Thane, Gray Fox, Pyrrha, and the accompanying Geth Primes all exited one after the other, weapons drawn. Both the Pelicans and the Geth Dropships used in their insertion looked unusable from their controlled crash landing into the Citadel of Chaos, but that was fine for them. They weren't planning on leaving anyway.
"We need to find Nihilus and their comms fast." Shepard barked out once the rest of her allies were ready. "Any ideas?"
"Find me a prisoner and I can tear the information from his mind." Galen grimly suggested. They were pressed for time and the lives of the rest of their friends were at stake, so he could indulge in some of his darker tendencies to complete their mission.
Shepard nodded. "Alright. Sarah, Gray Fox, and I will take point with the Geth behind us. We push through forward though this hallway and when we find enemies, we'll know we're going the right way."
"Roger!" The rest of the Legion replied in unison, while the Geth Primes gave electronic pings acknowledging the orders.
The Legion moved forward while maintaining a vigilant guard. They had landed somewhere near the upper levels of the Citadel, near the Eastern edge of the building, so the only path forward they could move would be West towards the center.
Soon enough, the Legion encountered their first group of defenders. Moving right for them, the Legion saw a squad of Imperial Stormtroopers, led by a single young officer wearing a black uniform and matching breastplate.
The officer's eyes widened as he saw the Legion and their Geth, quickly shouting, "Blast them!"
The Stormtroopers raised their blaster rifles and opened fire, but it was nowhere near enough to threaten the Legion. Shepard immediately summoned a biotic barrier to block the blaster bolts while Sarah and the Geth Primes opened fire. Almost immediately, all of the stormtroopers dropped under the torrent of laser and mass effect fire. The young officer barely had time to register his entire squad was dead when Gray Fox's fist connected to the side of his head, knocking him down.
Before the officer could even beg for his life, Galen walked up to him and levitated him with his telekinesis. Reaching out with the Force, Galen pushed his way into the mind of the officer, not caring for any damage he would do in the process. Within seconds, Galen violently ripped what information he needed from the mind of the officer, before dropping him to the floor a dooling heap.
"The communication's array is on the top floor, while Nihilus has some kind of throne room in the basement." Galen then pointed down the hall. "There's a set of elevators further down and to the left which can take us to both locations. But there's a complication."
Shepard rolled her eyes. "Of course there is, it wouldn't be a mission without one. What's going on?"
"The Imperials deployed their artillery and caught Tassadar's forces out. If we don't take those guns, they'll chew through them." Galen quickly said.
"Damn it." Shepard swore as strategies swarmed through her head. "Okay, here's the plan. Pyrrha, Galen. You and half the primes will come with me to hit Nihilus' throne room. Sarah, you take Thane and the rest of the Primes and take out the enemy comms. Gray Fox, I want you to head for the artillery and take it out. When you're done, double back to support Thane and Sarah. When you've cleared both locations, head down to the throne room to help us." Shepard barked out her orders.
"Aye, aye Commander." Sarah Lyons snapped off a quick salute. "And good luck, all of you." she nodded to her brothers and sisters in arms.
"And you." Shepard returned the gesture. "If we all survive this, drinks are on me."
Sarah returned a wry grin to the Commander, while Thane bowed slightly. They didn't need to trade any more words than that. Even if they wanted to exchange tearful goodbyes, their minds were all completely focused on the mission.
With only a simple nod, Shepard turned and made her way for one of the elevators, with Galen, Pyrrha, and a squad of Geth Primes behind her. Moving into the lift, they set the destination for the lowest levels of the Citadel, where Nihilus was making his lair.
The ride was silent and tense. Behind her Galen gripped his unactivated lightsaber in one hand, and the Staff of Magnus in the other, while Pyrrha had her plasma-reinforced Akoúo̱ and Power Weapon enhanced Miló in her hands, while her own lightsaber was still clipped to her belt. Both wore their reinforced outfits that they had used in both the attack on the Temple of Order and against the Geth. Meanwhile Shepard stuck to her Blood Dragon Armor and held her Power Axe her hands, while her Fat Man was strapped across her back.
As they mentally prepared for the upcoming battle, the doors opened up and swiftly the Legionnaires and the Geth filed out. They heroes found themselves in an empty, great hall made of blacked obsidian. A series of roughly hewn, cracked pillars held up a ceiling more than 30 feet tall, and in the center of the hall, was a deep recess in the ground that looked like it was some kind of pool or fountain, though was now empty.
On the far end of the great hall, sitting on a raised, black iron throne decorated with skulls, was the black robed figure of Darth Nihilus, Master of the Forces of Chaos, and Amalgamation. The Legion approached Nihilus, who slowly stood and looked down on them, his masked face betraying no emotion.
The two opposing forces stared at each other silently for several seconds, before Shepard spoke to break the quiet. "What, no long speech trying to justify everything you've done? No monologue trying to convince us to join you?"
Nihilus betrayed no reaction. He was not a creature of witticism and banter. Now, more than ever, he was a creature of violent impulse, of raw instinct and primal need. The need to feed. Extending out his hand, Nihilus launched a burst of red and black lightning as he attempted to drain the life from them.
As the lightning flew at them, Galen interposed himself between his allies and the attack, raising the Staff of Magnus. Activating the staff, Galen absorbed the attack, draining it as if the staff was draining magic. Seeing his attack nullified, Nihilus snarled as he switched to his lightsaber. But before he leapt down, Nihilus' body twisted and spasmed, cracking as two new appendages burst out of his back. The Legion watched in horror as two masses of flesh and bone formed into a pair of 6 foot long feathered purple-blue wings, coated in scintillating warpfire.
The wings stretched to their maximum wingspan as he then leapt off the throne and right towards the Legion. The Amalgamation's form betrayed how fast he actually was as he crossed the distance between them in an instant, his lightsaber bearing down on Pyrrha's head. Pyrrha barely had time to react as she raised Akoúo̱ up, the plasma-reinforced shield deflecting the attack. Pyrrha found that even with her enhanced strength as both a Grail Knight and an Aura-enhanced huntress, she felt her body buckle underneath the sheer force of the attack.
With a flick of her wrist, Pyrrha then swung her power weapon at the Dark Lord. Nihilus jumped back to dodge the attack, giving the Geth Primes space to open fire at him with their Spitfire machine guns. Their guns, being mass effect weapons, fired pellets that were too small to easily catch with the Force, and solid so Nihilus couldn't use his lightsaber to deflect them. As they did, Pyrrha charged forward, letting out a mighty battle cry. Both Galen and Shepard attacked as well, but lagged behind the closer huntress.
Raising his left hand, Nihilus created a Force Barrier that shielded him from the spray of mass effect pellets. As he blocked the mass effect rounds, Pyrrha moved into melee once more, slashing her sword with superhuman speed and precision. Pyrrha thrusted her blade at Nihilus' face, but the Dark lord raised his lightsaber and quickly parried the attack. Pyrrha continued on with this onslaught of strikes, tying up Nihilus's right arm, while the Geth tied up his left. Both his limbs distracted, Galen then attacked Nihilus from the back.
Galen swung his own lightsaber right for Nihilus, but before his lightsaber could land, something shot out of the Sith Lord's back. From between his wings, coming out of his very spine, an arm of blackened-blue flesh extended. The limb was spindly, extending out several feet, and covered with black sludge, long hair, and feathers. Galen was so temporarily shocked at the appearance of the arm that he wasn't able to react as it shot towards him at speed, long bony fingers wrapping around his throat. It then slammed him into the ground face first.
Stunned by the attack, Galen couldn't resist as the arm then began to drag the young Jedi to the Amalgamation, no doubt seeking to absorb him into its form. Before he could be consumed however, Shepard roared and brought her power axe down on the limb, cleaving through it.
The Amalgamation roared out as it recoiled in pain from the loss of limb, the remains of the arm reeling back to its body. The Amalgamation shook and twisted, before it then roared out with a Force Scream, the Dark Side energy exploding out of it. Galen, Shepard, and Pyrrha were all blasted backwards by both the sonic boom and the wave of pure hatred and agony.
Before the heroes could recover, Nihilus then unleashed a storm of lightning from his fingers. But this was no ordinary storm of just Force Lightning, but it was also combined with the might of the Warp. The fusion of Dark Side manipulation and Chaos magic leapt towards the Legionnaires, threatening to incinerate their bodies and very souls.
Swiftly, Galen raised the Staff of Magnus and placed it between himself and the lightning. Starkiller struggled to hold back the magic, but stayed strong as his artifact absorbed the attack. As the lightning flew towards Shepard, who had no way to defend herself, Pyrrha moved and placed herself before the attack with Akoúo̱'s plasma shield raised. Pyrrha grunted in pain as she was shoved back by the attack, but held strong. Akoúo̱'s plasma shielding allowed her to block the Force Lightning, while her own Blessing from the Lady allowed her to resist the Chaos magic.
Unlike the Legionnaires however, none of the Geth Primes had any real defenses for the attack, and were decimated by the lightning. One after the other the Primes fell, until all that was left of them was slag and sparking electronics.
When the lightning storm finished, Shepard took a brief moment to survey the damage done in what was not even a minute of combat. Pyrrha also looked at the destruction in shock, and when they caught each other's eyes, they both glowerd as they faced Nihilus once more with grim determination. They both knew that the three of them alone wouldn't be enough to defeat the Amalgamation. They could only hope that they could hold on long enough for the others to finish their objectives and come help.
Gray Fox made his way through a ventilation shaft, quickly making his way down to the ground level of the Citadel. He moved fast, and it only took him a scant few minutes to get behind the Imperial and Covenant artillery lines.
Covenant Wraith tanks and Imperial SPMA turbolasers continued to fire off volleys of plasma at the Legion's allies. Drawing his HF Blade, Fox flexed his cybernetic exoskeleton and dashed towards the first Wraith. The alien artillery crew was caught completely unawares as the cyborg ninja closed the distance and sunk his sword into the tank. The HF Blade's vibrations combined with Fox's cybernetic might allowed him to tear the tank apart, completely destroying it in only a few slashes.
A neighboring Wraith, seeing it's ally burst into blue flames, slowly pivoted to vaporize whatever threat just appeared. But it was far too slow as Gray Fox sprinted up to it, leaving behind a trail of electrical discharge in his wake. With a single slash, Gray Fox sliced one of the anti-grav repulsor wings clean off. He then stabbed his blade into the tank's side, easily piercing the alien metal as he ran around the tank and cut off its top like a canopener.
Gray Fox jumped back as the tank exploded, completely untouched by the detonation. He then flicked his sword, cleaning off alien oils and mechanical fluids when a crescent blade of crimson energy shot towards him. It was only Fox's honed battlefield senses and enhanced cybernetic reflexes that allowed him to dodge the attack as he flipped over it with a butterfly twist
Glancing at where the attack came from, roughly thirty feet away Fox saw what looked like a young man, wearing a dark grey trench coat, with slicked back red hair, two bull horns protruding from the crown of his head, and a shuttered white mask covering his eyes. In his hands was a blood red katana that he no doubt used to attack him. Unbeknownst to Gray Fox, he was looking at Adam Taurus.
However, something else caught Fox's attention. The boy did not look healthy. His skin was pale, deathly so, enough that his veins showed through, which were a sickly black color as well. Fox had been briefed on how Nihilus could feed on the life force of others through sheer proximity alone, something the boy was obviously a victim of.
"You know." Taurus casually said as he sheathed his blade. "I questioned the wisdom of posting me here, instead of at the frontlines. But it appears that Thrawn's paranoia was right."
"If Thrawn positioned a mere boy to protect a point of strategic import, then he must truly be a pathetic commander." Fox countered.
Adam sneered at Gray Fox's words, but instead of throwing his own insults back, he instead opted to drop into a low stance and ready his sword. Fox was greatly familiar with the stance Adam took. It was an Iai sword draw technique, where he would draw and attack with his katana in a single, lightning fast motion. The two swordsmen stared at each other, daring the other to make the first move.
After several tense seconds, Adam opted to go first. Despite the distance between the two, Adam drew his blade with a single fluid strike. The resulting draw formed another blade of crescent energy that he shot at towards Fox.
Once more, Gray Fox jumped in the air, dodging the attack with a corkscrew flip. But as Fox performed his acrobatic maneuver, Adam charged. Adam's Arua-enhanced muscles shot him forward as he tried to strike before Gray Fox had a chance to land from his flip. But Fox's cyborg body was too fast, and milliseconds after sticking the landing of his flip, Gray Fox's sword twirled, and he locked blades with Adam.
The two swords bit into each other as they both pushed forward, trying to overpower their opponent. When both Fox and Adam found that they were unable to do so, the cybernetics and Aura providing roughly the same amount of physical enhancement, they instantly changed tactics.
Instead of power they both relied on speed and technique, sending out dozens of rapid strikes in a flurry of attacks faster than the human eye could track. But unfortunately, both men were experts with the blade, and each attack they sent out would be parried, and each riposte would be blocked in turn.
The pattern continued until both swordsmen crossed blades once more.
"Your skills are impressive, for a machine." Adam said through grit teeth, acknowledging the stalemate they found themselves in.
"Your skills are admirable as well." Gray Fox returned as he pushed forward. "For a boy enslaved to his anger."
In a flash of movement, Gray Fox then headbutted Adam's face, the steel dome of his helmet smashing into the teen. Adam's head snapped back as the cyborg headbutt ripped a chunk of his Aura and broke his mask, sending it falling to the ground in two pieces. Stumbling back, Adam brought his empty hand to his face as he recoiled in pain. But Gray Fox would not relent, and he took advantage of the situation and delivered a devastating spinning back kick right into Adam's stomach.
The Faunus teen was sent flying through the air several meters, before he finally landed on the back of the SPMA turbolaser. Groaning, Adam slowly picked himself up as Gray Fox landed on the artillery cannon as well. His mask now gone, Gray Fox could see the snarling hatred in Adam's eyes, even if one of the eyes was burned and scarred from the SDC brand. The SPMA turbolaser then fired off another shot towards the greater battlefield, ignorant of the duel occurring on top of it.
Gray Fox then attacked again, dashing towards the Faunus along the spine of the turbolaser. To his surprise Adam did not move to meet him in combat again, but instead chose to turn around and run, moving up the barrel of the turbolaser while his off hand drew his scabbard. The sheathe seemed to double as a firearm as Adam fired off several shots at Fox while retreating up the cannon. But Gray Fox easily deflected these shots as he continued to chase down the boy.
Soon enough, Adam reached the end of the turbolaser cannon. However, he still refused to turn and face Gray Fox, as he then leapt off the spine of the massive gun, and directly into it's "barrel," in the form of a high energy radial array dish. Adam had apparently perfectly timed his jump, because as he moved in front of the turbolaser, the SPMA walker fired. The massive bolt of superheated plasma flew towards Adam, who blocked the energy attack with his sword.
He then called upon his semblance, Moonslice, to absorb the energy from the turbolaser blast and store it into his sword Wilt. In an inhumanly fast motion, Adam then resheathed his blade and performed another Iai-draw, firing off all of the absorbed energy into a massive crescent energy slash more than thirty feet long. Adam grinned maniacally as the attack flew right for Gray Fox.
However, just because the attack was larger, did not mean his attack any faster. And in a battle against a cyborg ninja, speed was everything. Overcharging his cybernetic exoskeleton, Gray Fox catapulted himself off the SPMA walker, moving like a bullet through the air as he jumped over the crescent energy slash, avoiding it entirely.
Adam's face then fell as his energy slash cut right through the SPMA walker. As it exploded, Gray Fox then used the resulting force to propel him upwards even more, blade moving right for Adam's throat. Quickly Adam brought Wilt in front of him, the two swordsmen locking blades for a third time, this time doing so mid-air. Adam grit his teeth as they pushed against one another, rage overtaking every fibre of his being.
"Your blade is used in hate." Gray Fox spoke, his voice calm but backed with conviction. "It controls you, not the other way around, and that is why you will lose."
"Shut up!" Adam snarled as he let go of his sword with his left hand and threw a savage haymaker.
But to the master soldier and CQC expert Gray Fox, such an attack was more than child's play. With only a slight tilt of his head, Gray Fox slipped the punch, and his own off hand shot right for Adam's face, striking much faster and much more precisely than Adam. In an instant, Fox's index finger and thumb slipped into Adam's undamaged eye socket. Talking hold of the sensory organ, Gray Fox pulled.
Adam's roar echoed over the battlefield, howling in pain as Gray Fox gouged his remaining good eye. Adam then broke the blade lock and brought his hand to his face as he screamed, unable to resist as Gray Fox then wrapped his legs around the teen's waist. Gray Fox then bent backwards, spinning in mid air as he used his legs and the momentum of the turn to fling Adam to the ground.
Adam's body crashed into the stone ground of Korriban, fracturing it and creating a decently sized crater. The impact completely shattered Adam's Aura, as well as dozens of his bones. Adam barely moved his hand, desperately trying to claw his way out of the crater, when Gray Fox impaled him with a downward thrust of his Fox Blade, landing on top of him. Gasping as Gray Fox ran him through, Adam was helpless as he felt his energy leave his body, and he died for a second time.
Pulling himself off the corpse, Gray Fox withdrew his blade and shook his head as he looked at the body of Adam. "Foolish boy. You were not ready for the level of violence I have lived through." Fox then glanced at Adam's weapon, the katana Wilt and gun-scabbard Blush. "These weapons were wasted on you." Fox then took the red bladed katana for himself, tying the scabbard to his waist, and moved to finish his task of destroying the rest of the artillery.
Sarah Lyons, Thane Krios, and their accompanying Geth Primes rode their elevator to the observation post at the top of the Citadel of Chaos. Thane had one hand on his pistol and the other on his lightsaber, while Sarah held her supersledge. It was going to be close quarters in the observation tower, and Sarah knew her gatling laser was going to be unwieldy.
The elevator doors pinged open, and the duo were greeted with the sight not unlike an aircraft control tower in either of their universes. It was a somewhat spacious, octagonal room, with large windows on each of the eight walls, filled with computers and holographic projectors giving them a view of the entire battlefield. The elevator was in the center of the room, attached to a column that probably supported the whole structure, and when it opened up every eye turned to face them.
Within the tower were two figures that both Sarah and Thane recognized. The blue skinned, red eyed form of Grand Admiral Thrawn, wearing a set of Shadow Trooper armor, with his helmet as his side, along with a full squad of Shadow Troopers. Next to him was Kai Leng, Cerberus assassin and Dark Jedi, accompanied by a dozen regular stormtroopers who manned the various computers and communication equipment.
There was a brief moment of silence between the two parties. No words were traded, as none of the warriors present were ones for pre-fight banter. Then the observation tower exploded with violence. The stormtroopers and Geth Primes traded blaster fire and mass effect rounds, soldiers on both sides dropping. The Imperials outnumbered the Geth greatly, but the synthetic juggernauts were able to tank the blaser plasma bolts and return fire.
Meanwhile, Thane moved for Kai Leng, the two assassins activating their lightsabers as they charged against one another. Focusing his Aura into his legs, Thane shot himself at Leng, deflecting blaster bolts as he performed a leaping slash at the assassin. But Leng was fast, far faster than he was after their last duel in the Citadel. Stepping back with a pirouette, Leng easily dodged Thane's attack and flowed into his own counter thrust. Thane swiftly brought up his blade to block, crossing blades with the assassin.
"I've killed you once before Frogman, and I'll do it again." Kai Leng growled out as their blades pressed against each other.
"As I recall, I was terminally ill and still stopped you from reaching your target." Thane countered as he pushed his blade forward. "And now, my powers have more than doubled since the last time we met."
Leng smirked. "Twice the pride, double the fall." Kai Leng then let go of his lightsaber with his off hand and extended it towards Thane, sending the Drell flying backwards with a Force Push.
Thane soared through the air, eventually slamming into one of the glass windows of the observation tower. The impact sent spider web cracks through the reinforced safety glass as Thane slid down the window. As his feet touched the ground, Thane saw a rapidly approaching flashing light, and saw that Kai Leng had thrown his lightsaber at him. The crimson lightsaber then impaled itself in the window as Thane had seemingly vanished into thin air.
His cybernetic eyes widening as Thane disappeared, Leng's precognitive danger sense spiked, warning him of an attack from behind. Immediately the assassin spun and activated the kinetic barrier within his cybernetic right arm, blocking a sneak attack from Thane's lightsaber as the Drell had blinked behind him.
While Kai Leng's handheld barrier focused on stopping Thane's lightsaber, Thane then raised the pistol that was in his off hand and shoved the barrel into Leng's stomach. Thane pulled the trigger three times and three bullets struck true. Leng roared as the impacts slammed into his body armor, one shot making a clean entry wound. He then took the pain, and used it to fuel his anger and his power.
With a cry of hate, Leng sent Thane flying backwards once more as a wave of telekinetic Force energy exploded from his body. As Thane soared through the air he used his enhanced reflexes to right himself and land on his feet. Meanwhile, Leng recalled his lightsaber back to him, leaving the two assassins to stare each other down again.
While the two assassins settled their grudge match, Thrawn immediately threw on his own helmet, and blended in perfectly with the Shadow Troopers protecting him. It was in fact so perfect that Sarah almost immediately lost track of where Thrawn was in the group of Shadow Troopers, as they not only looked the same but moved in the exact same way as well. Raising her super sledge and boosting her kinetic barrier to the max, Sarah charged the Shadow troopers with two Primes behind her.
The Shadow Troopers opened fire on Sarah, but between her kinetic barriers, her Aura, and the X-01 power armor itself, Sarah completely ignored the blaster bolts as she charged forward. Closing in on the nearest Shadow Trooper, Sarah swung her super sledge, slamming into the commando's torso. The Shadow Trooper's breastplate and ribcage folded inward with the strike, killing him instantly.
But the rest of the troopers took that opportunity to move and circle around Sarah, blasting her all the while. Raising her arm to protect her face, Sarah felt her defenses drain as the Shadow Troopers pinned her down. The Primes behind her returned fire to cover her, killing two of the commandos with their sustained fire. The Shadow troopers then shifted focus to them, hitting them with heavy blaster fire that overwhelmed their kinetic barriers.
One of the Shadow Troopers then pulled out a grenade from his belt and threw it at the Primes. The oversized synths were unable to move away in time as the grenade then exploded with a blast of Ion energy, completely destroying the internal circuitry of the Geth.
This however, provided Sarah the opportunity to get out of the line of fire and charge once more. Swinging her super sledge, Sarah caved in the head head of another Shadow Trooper, hoping she killed Thrawn with that attack.
"Wrong one." the Admiral's voice rang out
Sarah's hopes were dashed as she heard Thrawn taunt her, his voice sounding like it was coming from everywhere in the room at once, keeping her from figuring out where the source was.
"You fight like the Rebels in my galaxy." Thrawn continued. "Always rushing in, guns blazing, without thought or tactics to your actions."
"Killing your men one by one sounds like a good tactic to me!" Sarah shouted out to the air as she charged at the Shadow Troopers, but they retreated while firing, keeping out of Sarah's range and forcing her to hunker down once more.
Thrawn's voice then spoke from all around Sarah once more. "Ah yes, CQC. A tactic favored by insurgents such as you and your Commander Shepard. I have prepared for such."
As Thrawn spoke, Sarah heard a beeping. Looking down at the body of the Shadow Trooper next to her, Sarah saw an item on his belt flashing a red light. Sarah didn't think twice, knowing what she was looking at the moment she saw it. She jumped backwards as the Shadow Trooper's body was engulfed in flames.
Stumbling back, Sarah was injured, but still alive. The detotionation took out a decent chunk of her Aura, and shredded her power armor's left arm, completely destroying the plating and exposing the exoskeleton beneath. As the Shadow Troopers then pushed on Sarah, the Sentinel decided to fall back, moving towards the remaining Geth Primes who were engaging the conventional Imperial Stormtroopers.
Moving behind a holographic computer console for cover, Sarah then switched to her gatling laser and let loose. She along with the Primes traded fire with the Imperials, both sides peeking in and out of cover as they attacked.
As Sarah fired, she glanced to her side and looked at the hologram next to her. The hologram, a projection of the battlefield outside, showed Rylanor the Ancient One destroying an AT-AT, sending it toppling to the ground as his power claw sheared through its foot. She then watched as the Covenant and Imperial forces in the center of the battlemap began to retreat.
"Well, would you look at that Admiral? Looks like your forces are being driven back!" Sarah tauanted.
None of the Shadow Troopers broke rank to look at any monitors or projections. Sarah was only slightly disappointed by that, as Thrawn didn't fall for the bait and reveal himself. He must've had some way to check the battlefield though, as his voice once again echoed.
"Ah yes. It appears your allies have pushed back the weakest point in my defensive line, overextending themselves and leaving them vulnerable for my counter attack."
Before Sarah could call bullshit on Thrawn, she watched as the hologram suddenly changed. From the ground level of the Citadel, a mass of black flooded out. Grimm, hundreds if not thousands moving right for the Legion and the Geth. From within the Citadel, she then watched as a massive Grimm Wyvern lumbered out, before taking to the skies as well. And if that wasn't enough, several Imperial Shuttles had taken off as well, leaving the Citadel's airfield and moving towards the battlefield.
"Our Dark Lord has been busy." Thrawn casually added on. "And has recruited a force of villains similar to your own. Let's see if your friends have what it takes to survive the oncoming onslaught."
A/N, 4/11/21: Another chapter! The Battle for the Final Destination is heating up! The forces of Chaos have lost Adam Taurus, but now the Legion is exposed to their counter attack. Who will survive?

CamoMurf: Yep. We're definitely in the End Game now.
TheDoctor1998: While it would be cool to add either Penny or the Hound, since we are close to the end of this fic, I won't be adding anymore characters. But it's good to know that if I ever want to do another Isekai/reincarnation type story with RWBY I could use Penny again.
With that I hoped you all liked this chapter, and I'll see you in the next one!
