"Estimated time of arrival to desired destination: Forty minutes."
"About time." Cloud muttered, "Computer: Prep medbay and repair bay. No doubt that whoever Tony found needed help and he busted up his armor while helping them."
"Acknowledged." The system replied.
Cloud grabbed his Materia that he had on hand, he would need to go in prepared, and that meant whatever Materia that would be helpful for the situation. He figured that Cure, Stop, and Steal would be helpful.
Now all he had to do was wait until he could be of use.
"Tony's been in there for a long time." He-Man noted as he stopped some lava from getting to the last remaining plateau.
"It is very disconcerting." She-Ra replied as she did her best to keep the carnivorous animals from devouring the herbivores.
"I have faith in him." Glacius said as he was assisting She-Ra.
"Gotta say, it's crazy how he hasn't gotten out yet." Bowser said. He was injured as he did his best to keep the Lava Serpent away from the rest of the group. It was thankfully a lot easier now that Tony had engaged the beast from the inside, but the lack of progress led the group to believe that there was something harming it, and that Tony was doing his best to disable or destroy whatever was hurting it.
"Yeah… It is a bit weird. Do you think he's…?" Adora worried.
"No way he's dead." Bowser said, "This guy's been through way more than you give him credit for."
"We just need to-"
"GAH!" Tony ended up flying out of a freshly-made hole that was created by a blast of crimson, as he was forced out of the Serpent, which collapsed in the pool of lava.
"Tony!" He-Man jumped and grabbed him, only to just then realize that he wasn't exactly in a position to find a safe place to land.
Luckily, his sister was there to transform her sword into a lasso to grab him and pull him to safety.
"Thanks."
"You're welcome. If only our own healing magics were just as effective here." She lamented.
"Yeah…" He-Man grumbled, "Tony. What is that thing?"
"It's what's causing…" He looked at the beast the two had just forcibly exited, "Caused the Lava Serpent there to go nuts. Whatever that crystal it's holding is, it's giving it power. Massive healing factor, and some acid spit."
"ALL I HEARD WAS HIT IT HARD, AND HIT IT FAST! LET'S GO!" Bowser snarled as he charged in, claws swinging and fire breath going ablaze.
"I really wish he didn't do that…" He-Man lamented.
"He has the right idea though. Come on. Our magic won't hold out much longer in these conditions."
"It's not the worst plan." Tony admitted, "Besides, I can hear it."
"Hear what?"
Tony smirked under his faceplate, "Look at the sky."
He-Man looked up, "Wait, since when does this planet have a moon?"
She-Ra's eyes lit up, "That's no moon. That's a space station!"
"Tony! I made it. What's the situation?"
"Cloud! Good to hear your voice. There's a bug-monster here that's tearing up the place and has some sort of weird crystal giving it power. Think you can lend a hand?"
"How about a Buster Sword?" Cloud asked.
"Hey, I hear wind. Don't tell me you-"
"HIIYAAAHHHH!" Cloud came down and slashed off the arm of the creature in question, slicing it clean off and let it boil in the lava.
"WOAH! I got you!" Bowser said as he caught the SOLDIER.
"Thanks." Cloud said as Bowser managed to keep him above the lava, "Here, I brought some Cure."
"My shell feels better!" Bowser exclaimed, "And I feel strong enough to do THIS!" He grew until he was as big as the mountains around him.
"Everyone! On Bowser!" Tony called out as he carried Glacius and the two Greyskull-empowered twins jumped to get on Bowser's back, "Good to see you Cloud. Now we need Glacius and that Serpent over there healed too. The more hands on deck, the better."
"Just get me a bit closer. And I'll give Glacius a hand- Woah!" He dodged an attack from the bug-creature, "And keep that thing off of me."
"You heard him. Give him covering fire."
The Bug-Creature was far from an unintelligent creature. The Lava Serpent was its predator for a long time, but now it had the power to feed on it instead! If these new invaders were to disrupt what could only be a divine change of fate, then they had to die too!
The new Swordsman had healed the one made of ice, and the group was now about to heal the wretched Serpent!
No matter. This new power that it had found would be more than enough to claim victory!
This battle was his to win!
