And I'm back with the next arc of Meta-Verse. Well, okay, I did say I wanted to do Arc 5 early, since Into Another Dimension is literally slow-going at the moment, and so, here it is. Arc 5 is now here. Sorry if I'm posting Arc 5 too early. But I'm sure everything will be fine. Anyways. In the plot description, it said that I'm gonna be collaborating with 'sFanfic in this arc, but, I'm gonna do the first two chapters by myself before we even get to that point. Anyways, it's time to meet up with the Lustrous and one particular Lustrous that is our main protagonist. If, anyways. Well, let's get Arc 5 started and hopefully Arc 4 will be done soon.

Disclaimer: I don't own any characters appearing in this fic.

Unknown Place

On the walls, there is a painting with a silhouette being surrounded by red lightning.

"The One with Lightning. She is the ultimate savior of our times. It is prophesied that the One with Lightning will save us from the upcoming battle that will come. But, she must have a destiny to choose. Whether to save it…or to destroy it." A girl's voice said.

Space

"Last year, we experienced a phenomenal case known as The Portal Incident. Portals that open up out of nowhere and send people out of their own worlds. Even realities. We thought it was over. But, we hadn't prepared ourselves for what was about to happen next. And we set our eyes on a world where things don't exist as much. But is home to some of the strangest people in the entire multiverse. This is where our story begins." Katy Caterpillar narrates.

Land of the Lustrous

In a world where it's bleak and empty, except for a building and some leafless trees, we see people that are completely made out of a certain type of gem. These people are known as Lustrous. These Lustrous thrived to survive when moon people known as Lunarians attack every so often. On a cliffside, we see a certain Lustrous just standing there, with her sword in her hands.

This Lustrous has short mint green hair and mint green eyes. Her arms are gold. She wears a black t-shirt, black shorts and black shoes. This is Phosphophyllite, who goes by Phos for short.

She was just staring into the sky, waiting for the Lunarians to come. She has a long history of being weak and brittle. The Lustrous does not see her as anything at all. She was once given a job of completing an encyclopedia by their sensei, Kongo. But, a trip out with an Admirabilis named Ventricosus, getting captured by the Lunarians, with them breaking her legs in the process, then freed by another Admirabilis known as Aculeatus, and him giving Phos agate legs, Kongo was angered and relieves Phos of the encyclopedia job.

After knowing what the agate legs can do, Kongo has Phos be assigned to the Twin Amethyst to do some use there for battle. But, after a watch went wrong, when the Amethysts were broken due to the surprise Lunarian attack, Phos was hopeless.

Sometime after that, in the winter time, Phos meets up with an ice gem named Antarcticite, and is assigned to her on watches, even though Lunarians rarely appear in the winter time. One day, Phos is tricked by the ice, and it breaks off her arms. Antarcticite and Phos go to look for something to replace Phos' arms, and they find golden alloy instead. Unfortunately, the Lunarians attack, and Phos is being sealed up by the golden alloy. Antarcticite protects her, but was killed off by the Lunarians in the process. This angers Phos and she was about to attack the moon people, but it was too late.

Now, Phos is just more determined to kill off the Lunarians, ever since what happened to Antarcticite back in the winter time. While she watched the sky, she was approached by two other Lustrous.

The two have long, braided and styled purple hair that covers one eye, the first Lustrous has her right eye covered, and the second has her left eye covered, to which their eyes are also purple as well. They wear the same uniform as Phos. This is the Twin Amethyst, Amethyst 84 and Amethyst 33.

Phos was just staring into space, until she turned around to see Amethyst. "Patrol?"

Amethyst nodded.

Phos sighed. "Okay." She then turns around and looks out into the sky again.

It was silent for the moment, when the Lustrous were just doing patrol. But then, a dark ship appears out of nowhere, flying towards them.

"That's not a sunspot." Amethyst 33 said.

Phos then readies her sword. "I don't care if it's a sunspot or not. Whatever that thing is, we're gonna take it out."

"Ourselves?" Amethyst asked in shock.

"Why not?" Phos asked. "Besides, don't wanna bother getting the other Lustrous right now."

The two Amethyst just looked at each other, then straight back to the ship. They aren't sure if this is the right choice or not. They prepare themselves as well. The dark ship then got closer to the Lustrous. Phos steps back, being a few inches from Amethyst. Afterwards, the ship opens, and a creature comes out of it.

This creature has white fur with red spots, and her left eye is silver and her right eye is red. She wears a red hat and a white and red-dotted cravat around her neck. This is Lucy Lacemaker.

Lucy did her evil laugh. "The foolish incompetents of this world. So much so."

"What do you want?" Phos asked, still in her battle position.

"What do I want, I wonder. It's simple, really. All I wanted was death…and suffering…that's all." Lucy said.

"Yeah, like that's gonna happen." Phos said.

Lucy snickered. "You fools are so stupid. So very, very stupid. I'll finish you all off with a snap of my claws." She snapped her claws. "Yes." She turns to the ship. "It's party time, party animals."

Then, nine more beings came out of the ship.

The first being has white and black fur, white eyes and has brown horns, with the right one looking shorter than her left one. This is Winifred.

The second being looks skeletal that has gray skin and black eyes. He wears a brown hat, brown trench coat, brown pants and black shoes. This is Fontaine.

The third being has black and gray fur and has red eyes and has white ram-like horns. This is Shuck.

The fourth being has light brown fur and yellow eyes and has brown goat-like horns. He only wears a red and green long-sleeve shirt. This is Sombra.

The fifth being is a dragon that is blue and has four blue eyes. This is Fleischer.

The sixth being has brown skin and orange eyes and has dark brown spiky hair. He wears a yellow and black trenchcoat. This is Ludwig.

The seventh being is somewhat of a fish-like being that is pink and has black eyes. This is Dorothy.

The eighth being has white fur and blue hair and blue eyes. She wears a black sleeveless shirt and black shorts, and has a black tip on her tail. This is Luna.

The ninth being has peach skin and red hair and red eyes. This is Mystique.

Phos' eyes widened. "Um…that's a lot."

Lucy laughed, hysterically. "And I thought you might take us all on just the three of you! What a shame!"

Phos then gets pissed. "Okay, that's it." She then extends her golden alloy arms to attack the Kivouachians.

Fontaine controls Phos' golden alloy arms and he throws them straight at Phos. The gem person did not think of what to do and got hit instead, making her fall to the ground.

"Phos!" Amethyst approaches Phos.

"We do need help. I was wrong." Phos said.

Amethyst 84 nodded. "We need to signal for help."

Amethyst 33 nodded, but her head got cut off, and it fell to the ground. Amethyst 84 turns around to see that Ludwig has used his electrical powers to cut off Amethyst 33's head.

"Not much of a fighter, are you?" Sombra then had something known as Fel Magic, and he threw green Fel Magic blasts at the Lustrous.

"Oh crap!" Amethyst 84 shouted.

Phos manages to grab Amethyst 84 and the damaged Amethyst 33 and she gets them and herself out of the way of the blasts.

"So, do you surrender to us now?" Lucy asked.

"I'm not giving up to the likes of your ugly face." Phos said, looking mad.

Lucy then has a sinister smile on her face. "Oh, that's not what I want to hear." She turns to Luna. "Kill them."

"As you wish." Luna grabs out her moon-like sword and she charges at the Lustrous.

Before anything can happen, a portal opens underneath the Lustrous and they fall into it. The portal then closes afterwards.

Luna slowed herself down, then stopped. "What?"

"Hmm. Seems like they'll be somewhere else." Lucy then turns to her crew. "We must go and locate them."

"Yes, Miss Lacemaker." Winifred said.

Tomorrowland

In the street of the futuristic world of Tomorrowland, the portal opened, and Phos and the Twin Amethyst came out of it and landed on the ground. Then the portal closes. The Lustrous gets up.

"Where are we?" Amethyst 84 looks around, but then sees that Amethyst 33 is magically fixed. Her eyes widened. "You were broken."

Amethyst 33 looks at herself. "I don't know what happened. That's just weird."

Amethyst 84 then turns to Phos, and is in more shock. "Phos? What just happened to you?"

"What?" Phos looked at herself, and noticed that her arms are not golden anymore. They're just normal arms. "HUH?!" She tries to look for something to look at herself. She did come across a puddle on the ground, then she went to it and looked at herself. Her mint-green hair is not that long, but isn't that short as it was before. Her eyes widened. "I'm literally back to normal, am I? Oh my God. This can't be happening. I just cut my hair."

"You look like the Phos you were before." Amethyst 84 said.

"Yeah, the annoying, idiotic one. Dammit." Phos sighed. "What am I gonna do? I'm…I'm worried I'm not gonna be much help at all anymore."

Amethyst 84 sighed. "You still can be. Hopefully."

"Yeah, thanks." Phos rolled her eyes. She then notices something small right next to the puddle. "Um…what is that?"

The small thing then looks up at Phos.

This small thing is actually a human girl the size of a grasshopper that has red hair that is worn in braids and brown eyes. She wears a blue and yellow hat, blue and white short-sleeve dress, a yellow scarf-like neckwear, white bloomers and is barefoot. This is Hakumei.

Hakumei just stares at Phos for a minute, then her eyes widened. "Oh wow…so huge…"

"Um, hi. Um, what are you?" Phos asked.

"Um, me?!" Hakumei looks panicked. "Um…I'm…I'm just a tiny little woman." She fidgets with her fingers.

Phos nodded. "Okay. Fine. I'm okay with that answer." She gets up. "Where are we anyways?"

"Um, that's what I was trying to figure out. Wait, hold on! You mean you guys are not from here either?!" Hakumei asked.

Phos shook her head. "No."

Hakumei looked at the ground for a moment, then sighed. "Oh boy. This is bad. Mikochi is left alone. I don't know what will happen to her if I don't know how she's doing."

"Who's Mikochi?" Phos asked.

"She's a good friend of mine. I was once a traveler, and I ended up meeting with Mikochi after a point. I was on the brink of starvation when someone stole some stuff from me, but a traveling caravan helped me. I traveled alongside them, until the day I met up with Mikochi." Hakumei then looks down at the ground. "I don't know how she's doing now. I'm hoping nothing bad happens to her when I'm gone. Especially when I'm somewhere that is unrecognizable to me."

Phos sighed. She crouched down. "Don't worry. I'm sure she'll be fine until you get back. We'll find a way out of here, promise."

Hakumei looks up at Phos. "Thank you." Her eyes are now starting to form tears. "That means a lot to me."

Phos nodded. "No problem."

Amethyst approaches Phos. "Um, Phos? We have another problem."

"And what's that?" Phos turned around, then saw what Amethyst meant. Her eyes widened. "What the hell?!"

Hakumei then sees what Phos is seeing, then her face turns red. "Oh my God…"

What they're seeing is a naked girl just scribbling on the wall.

This girl has short silver-white hair with a blue tint to it that reaches down to her ears and blue eyes. This is Hakua Shiodome.

"Um, what is going on here?" Phos asked, looking really awkward at what state Hakua is in.

"I don't know." Amethyst said.

"I never, ever guessed what that would be like for her. She needs some clothes." Hakumei said.

"Um, her clothes are right there." Amethyst 33 points at the clothes right next to Hakua.

"Then why isn't she wearing them?!" Hakumei is in shock.

"You got me." Phos said.

Hakua then stops scribbling on the wall, then turns around to see the four.

"Um…" Phos doesn't know what to say in this situation. She never dealt with a situation where a girl is naked and starts scribbling on walls.

"It's fine." Hakua said.

"No it's not." Phos said.

Hakua then puts her black marker down and she puts on her white panties, then her white long-sleeve shirt, then her black skirt, then her white ankle socks, then her black loafers. She grabs her marker and puts it in her shirt pocket, then she walks to the four. "Been calculating."

"Calculating?" Phos then sees what Hakua has scribbled. Scientific methods, numbers, the gem person was in shock. "Oh wow. I have never seen this before."

Hakua nodded. She then looks down at Hakumei, then she crouches down and opens up her hand for the little woman to climb on.

"Um, is it okay?" Hakumei asked, determined not to get on.

"I'm sure." Hakua said.

Hakumei thinks for a moment, then she slowly walks onto Hakua's hand. Hakua then lifts her up. The little woman sighed in relief. "Alright then. Seems like this isn't bad."

"Who said it isn't bad?" A female came to them.

This female has hip-length wavy brown hair and green eyes. She wears a white t-shirt, blue checkered skirt, white socks and black loafers. This is Tsubasa Shibahime.

"Um, that will be me." Hakumei raised her hand up high for Tsubasa to see.

Tsubasa walks to Hakua and she looks closely at Hakumei. "Hmm. Small tiny human. That's great."

Phos turns around. "Say that again."

"Say what?" Tsubasa asked.

"What you just said earlier." Phos said.

"Um, small tiny human?" Tsubasa asked.

Phos' eyes widened. "Human…"

"Are you okay? You don't look so good." Tsubasa looks concerned.

Phos panted. She has heard the word human used before. From the Admirabilis. She also told this to Kongo as well, when she was trying to tell him what had happened back with the Admirabilis and Lunarians, but her memory just got chipped away when her legs were cut off. Human was one of the words she told Kongo, and this caused their sensei into a panic attack that isn't visible to the Lustrous, although him breaking the table is a sign of it. The gem person shook her head. "You're human, aren't you?"

Tsubasa nodded. "Okay, are we enemies towards each other? Because I don't like that. I did that one time."

Phos sighed. "Look, Lunarians, moon people, are the souls of humans. The ones who wait for their prayers to be prayed."

Tsubasa is confused. "What does that have to do with us?"

"I'm sensing that our sensei doesn't trust humans. That might be what it was that got him ticked off. So, we wouldn't be friends with you either." Phos said.

Tsubasa sighed, annoyed. "Come on. I'm not that dangerous. I never even hurt a fly any."

"Or maybe someone that's my size?" Hakumei asked.

"There's no such thing back in my world." Tsubasa said.

Hakumei shrugged. "Just saying."

"Look, you can trust us. We ain't gonna hurt you or anything. Besides, I thought you guys are human yourselves. Are you not?" Tsubasa asked.

Phos shook her head.

"We're Lustrous. We're made out of a certain type of gem." Amethyst 84 said.

"Really?" Tsubasa goes to Amethyst 84 and she touches and feels her. She's in shock. "Oh my God. This is new…what are you made of?"

"We're made out of an amethyst type of gem. Why we're called Amethyst." Amethyst 84 said.

"I need to know more about these gems then." Tsubasa then turns to Phos. "What about you?"

"Huh?" Phos snaps out of her trance. "Well, I made out of a phosphate type of gem."

"Your name's Phosphate?" Tsubasa asked.

"Phosphophyllite. But Phos for short."

Tsubasa nodded. "I see."

"Cool. Gem people. That's a good one." Another female came to them, holding a boomerang.

This female has pink hair and brown eyes. She wears a white t-shirt, black skirt, black almost-to-the-knee socks and black shoes. This is Kuniko Hojo.

"What's that?" Hakumei points at the boomerang.

Kuniko notices Hakumei, and she looks at her boomerang. "This thing? It's a boomerang. Made out of Carbon Nanotube."

"Carbon Nanotube?" Tsubasa asked, curiously.

"Type of futuristic material." Kuniko said.

"I see." Tsubasa looks at the boomerang some more, curiously.

"What is all this?"

Four females came to them.

The first female has hair that is a dark brown shade that is short with two bangs at the sides and a strand of hair in the front and dark red eyes. She wears a long-sleeve purple sweater that goes past her hands, green skirt, black thigh-high socks and brown loafers. This is Toru Ichii.

The second female has shoulder-length blonde hair that has bangs clipped up in a parakeet-like hairstyle held up with two intersecting green hair clips and copper-brown eyes. She wears a white long-sleeve shirt, green skirt, white almost-to-the-knee socks and brown loafers. This is Run Momoki.

The third female has brown hair that is tied to sport pigtails and red eyes and she wears glasses. She wears a brown long-sleeve shirt, green skirt, red almost-to-the-knee socks and brown loafers. This is Nagisa Tennouji.

The fourth female has butt-length black hair that has bangs swept to the right side while she has waist-length hair strands hanging in the front and purple eyes. She wears a white long-sleeve shirt, green skirt, black almost-to-the-knee socks and black loafers. This is Yuko Nishi.

"How many people are there?" Amethyst 33 asked.

"Oh wow. Everyone I know from manga." Toru said, and she started listing them out. "Okay. Phosphophyllite. Amethyst 84 and 33. Hakua Shiodome. Tsubasa Shibahime. Kuniko Hojo. Oh, and tiny little Hakumei."

Everyone except for the four girls are in plain shock.

"Wow. She knows a lot about us." Phos said in shock. "I'm hoping she doesn't know what happened with Antarcticite."

"I do know that. And I do know what you and Cinnabar are going through." Toru said.

Phos shook her head. "I'm just hearing things, right?"

Toru shook her head. "I remember every character name from manga I've read so far."

Phos just nodded. "Okay. Maybe I did not mishear any of it."

"Neat. Know who I am."

Toru turns around to see another female behind her.

This female has turquoise hair and gold eyes. She wears a white long-sleeve shirt, brown skirt, white almost-to-the-knee socks and brown loafers. This is Yuki Kusakabe.

"Yeah. You're Yuki Kusakabe. Snow Woman." Toru said.

Yuki smiled. "Glad someone I don't know knows me."

"Snow Woman?" Hakumei is confused.

"She's made out of snow?" Kuniko asked.

Yuki shook her head. "My body is colder than a normal human."

Yuko goes to touch Yuki, and she gets her hands away after feeling her. "Too cold."

Then another female came to them.

This female has black hair and black eyes. She wears a tan-colored hat, red t-shirt, black gloves, tan-colored shorts, black stockings and brown loafers. This is Kaban.

"Man, am I walking through a lot of strange things here, until I meet you guys here?" Kaban said.

"This is a full house." Run said, noticing the amount of people that are coming here.

"It's like we have a full party adventure group here." Nagisa said.

"I don't call this much of an adventure." Yuko said.

"Yeah. This is an adventure of finding our way home." Toru said.

Phos nodded. "Definitely."

"Very definitely. I wanna see Mikochi again." Hakumei said.

Run goes to Hakua and sees Hakumei. "I'm sure you'll see her again some time soon. I'm sure of it."

Hakumei nodded. "Let's hope so."

"So you work as a detective?"

"Well, not really. Nothing special, really."

Two females approach the group.

The first female has short blue fluffy hair that cups her face and blue eyes. She wears a tan-colored shirt with white short sleeves, gray skirt, white almost-to-the-knee socks and brown loafers. This is Kanna Tanigawa.

The second female has tan skin, blonde hair and purple eyes. She wears a green t-shirt, blue short-sleeve denim jacket, brown cargo pants and pink sneakers. This is Chelsea Moore.

"I see." Kanna nodded, then saw the group of people that was in front of them. "Wow. What is this?"

"So there were more than we thought. Interesting." Chelsea said.

"Yeah, we're in the same boat as you guys are." Toru said.

Kanna nodded. "I see."

"How did we get here, anyways?" Chelsea asked.

"Well, I remember reading in mangas that there are some mangas where a person is doing his own thing, then afterwards something happens to the person, who is literally the hero or heroine of the story, like a portal would come out of nowhere and suck the hero or heroine into an unknown world. There are other ways for unknown world traveling to happen, but portals are what we experienced." Toru explains.

"I don't know what mangas are, but I get what you're saying." Chelsea said.

"Are there more coming here as well?" Kanna asked.

"Yes." Another female came to them.

This female has brown hair and brown eyes. She wears a white sleeveless dress, has white angel wings, a halo and flip-flops. This is Rakka.

"Are you an angel?" Run asked.

Rakka shook her head. "I am a Haibane. Which you can consider a type of angel, anyways."

"That tells me that you are an angel." Nagisa said.

"Well, yes, true." Rakka nodded.

"Are Haibanes similar to Lunarians?" Phos asked.

"What are Lunarians?" Rakka asked.

"They're moon people, who are actually the soul of humans that waits for their prayers to be prayed." Phos said.

Rakka looks down at the ground. "Sounds sad."

"They try to kill us." Phos said.

Rakka looks at Phos for a moment. "Confusing."

Phos shrugged. "You don't know the answer then, huh?"

Rakka shook her head. "That, I can't say."

Then a little girl came to them.

This girl has medium-length dark brown hair that is tied into two braids with red ribbons and dark brown almond eyes. She wears a teal dress with white long sleeves, white almost-to-the-knee socks and pink ruby shoes. This is Yuna Matsumoto.

Toru smiled, then she walked to Yuna and patted her on the head. "Hey there."

Yuna smiled. "Hi."

"Now we have a child here?" Tsubasa asked, shocked.

"What in the world is going on, anyways?" Kuniko asked.

"Don't know." Kanna said.

Then another female with a cat-like creature came to them.

The female has dark brown hair and dark brown eyes. She wears a white shirt with red short sleeves, blue jean shorts, black ankle socks and red sneakers. This is Summer Adams.

The cat-like creature has red and white fur and has yellow eyes with large black pupils. He wears a collar that has an aquamarine bell on it and a yellow haramaki. The tips of his tails have aquamarine hitodama flames on them. This is Jibanyan.

"I didn't wanna be stuck with a Yo-Kai like you. You were supposed to be my brother's Yo-Kai." Summer said.

"Yeah, I thought I was. Until nyow, you and I have gotten through different portals to the same place." Jibanyan said.

Summer sighed. "Here I thought my days with Yo-Kais are over."

"That's a Yo-Kai?" Phos points at Jibanyan.

Jibanyan nodded. "I am most definitely a Yo-Kai."

Phos shrugged. "Okay."

Then, another female comes falling from the sky and drops to the ground and does her stance.

This female has auburn red hair and amber eyes. She wears a black mask, red hat, red cape, red long-sleeve shirt, white pants and black boots. This is Juliet Fiamatta Arst de Capulet, aka Odin, and also the Red Whirlwind.

"Whoa, hey there!" Yuko looks startled.

"I am the Red Whirlwind. And I came to see who took me away from my homeland." Juliet gets up and points her rapier at the group.

"Whoa, we are confused as you are, just put that sword down!" Tsubasa said in panic.

Juliet sighed, then she sheathed her sword. "Alright then. Then where is this culprit?"

"We don't know yet. We don't even know where we are." Rakka said.

Juliet nodded. "Then we shall travel to where we have to go."

"You mean, do it now?" Phos asked.

Juliet nodded.

Toru turns to us. "Looks like we're gonna go on with the plot now. This is my first time fourth wall-breaking, since there are some mangas that can do that. Strawberry Marshmallow, Chika Itou does that." She chuckled. "Well, let's just go to commercial break first before we begin the chapter."

Break

Later, the team began their search for answers.

"So, we're in a futuristic world. We might encounter robots if we're lucky." Toru said.

"What are robots?" Hakumei asked.

"They're beings that are made out of metal. Also circuitry as well." Summer said.

"There are some good ones. And there are some bad ones. It depends on what type of robot you run into. There are different types of robots out there." Toru said.

Chelsea nodded. "Kind of like Marciano's 12 Sisters."

"Who are they?" Rakka asked.

"Androids that work for Marciano, a space criminal." Chelsea said.

Rakka nodded. "Alright."

They were good so far, until they ran into security guards. "Hold it right there!" One of them shoots out a laser blast out of the palm of his hand.

"We didn't do anything!" Yuko said, panicked.

"Run!" Phos said.

They then ran for it.

"Get them!" The security guard said.

More guards then start chasing down the team.

Amethyst 84 looks behind her. "There is more incoming!"

"I just wish they were friendly." Yuki said.

"Looks like not." Nagisa grabs out her syringes and she throws them at the guards, dismantling some of them.

"Those syringes pack quite a punch." Run said.

Nagisa nodded. "Indeed."

They kept running, until they saw a room.

"In there!" Amethyst 33 points at the door.

They then get into the room, then Toru runs and uses the computer on the wall to shut the door.

"What was that?" Hakumei asked, frightened.

"I have no idea." Phos said.

"Where are we?" Yuna asked, looking around.

The room seems dark. They couldn't really see anything all that well.

"This is creeping me out." Yuko said.

Juliet just tries to look around. "I can't see a thing."

"What we're in right now." Phos said.

"You came all this way. I'm impressed."

Lights then turn on to show a cube. Inside the cube is a tiny chip that is gray and has a tiny red eye on his left. He does have insect-like legs as well. This is STEM.

"A bug?" Yuki asked.

"I am no bug. I am the creation of anything and everything there is. There is so much that you don't realize. I am the breaking point of despair. Destruction. Everything in-between. Now, you can view me as a god." STEM said.

"Okay, a bug with a sick sense of wrong." Kanna said.

"I'm telling you I am no bug." STEM then pushes a button that is in the cube, and four robot warriors come out of the floor.

"Uh oh." Hakumei said.

"We just made him mad." Yuko looks frightened.

"Kill them." STEM said.

The robots then draw out their sword and go to attack the group.

Juliet draws out her sword. "No one is ever gonna defeat justice. I am the Red Whirlwind!" She charges at the robots and she goes to attack them.

"We might help her as well." Rakka flew to one of the robots and she punched one of them with her feet, sending the robot to the ground.

Amethyst ran towards the robots and they attacked the robots. Yuki freezes one of the robots with her ice powers, but the robot unfroze itself.

"They have a heating mechanism?" Toru asked in shock.

Yuna flew above them, then she shot out colorful stars at the robots. But this doesn't do any damage at all.

"Dammit." Phos looks around, trying to see if there is anything that could dismantle the robots, but couldn't find any.

One of the robots charges at Chelsea, who was shooting at them, while trying to be careful not to shoot her new friends, but the robot is deflecting the bullets. Surprisingly, golden alloy protected Chelsea from the charging robot. Chelsea looks at the golden alloy, then she turns to see who did it. It is revealed that Phos had the ability to make her arms turn golden alloy.

"You can do that?" Chelsea asked.

"I'm surprised as you are." Phos said.

"Alright. Enough." STEM pushed a button to shut down the robots.

Toru looks at STEM. "Coward?"

"No. Much worse." STEM pushes a different button, to which the cube he is in opens up, then the whole stand that the cube was standing on transforms into a giant robot cougar with rifles on its back.

"So much machinery." Run said in amazement, but also worried all at the same time.

"I am the true creator of Hell. You won't be seeing yourselves the same again. I will possess you. And I will make your mind break." STEM then controls the cougar to attack the team.

"Everybody, get down!" Hakumei said.

They dodged the bullets that were coming from the rifles. Hakua transforms into a warrior girl that has white metal gauntlets, white metal boots, a white bra and white panties and wields an ice sword.

"You think that can flatter me?" STEM then shoots at Hakua.

Hakua deflects the bullets with her gauntlets, then she charges at STEM and she slams her sword to the ground, causing icicles to form on the ground. STEM dodges this and they hit the wall instead.

"You need some help."

"Who said that?" Run then looked down on the ground and saw, who else would it be, Katy Caterpillar. "Cute!"

"We're here to assist you in this battle." Katy said.

Then, a portal opens up and Konata Izumi, Tsumiki Miniwa, Mio Naganohara, Tomoko Kuroki, Chika Itou, Reg, Riko, Nanachi, Marulk, Paiman and Milk Chan come out of it.

"Wow! This is gonna be a big battle here, huh?" Toru said.

"Naa. Seems more like we're a big group here." Nanachi said.

"You don't say." Yuna said while she's up in the air.

"Let's get that bastard." Tomoko readies her sword.

"You can't stop a god. There is inevitably no way." STEM then starts shooting at them again.

Reg blocks the bullets with his metal arms.

"We need to shut him down somehow." Riko said.

"Is that what you think?" With the portal still opened, Lucy came out of the portal.

"You again?" Phos asked in shock.

"Wait. You're not from the Meta-Verse reality. That portal leads to Meta-Verse, how did you got through that?" Tsumiki asked.

"Portal tapping." Lucy said.

"She hacked into our portal to go through here." Katy said.

"That's one tough luck." Konata said.

"Now it's your turn to die." Lucy makes her claws glow and she starts slashing at the team.

Toru goes for Lucy and she attacks her with her bat. They locked themselves in a bat and claw fight.

Katy sees Hakumei, who Hakua puts down on the floor before changing into her bikini warrior form, and she crawls to Hakumei. "You and I will stop this tiny robotic flea."

"But how?" Hakumei asked.

Katy then grew butterfly wings. "I'll take you up there."

Hakumei looked at Katy for a moment, then nodded, then she got on Katy's back.

"Let's hope you're not heavy to carry." Katy then takes off with Hakumei riding on her back. She did struggle a bit, but she got it just fine, before going to the robot cougar and landing on its back to confront STEM.

STEM turns around to see both Katy and Hakumei. "You two are diseases. That must be eradicated."

"You're the disease here." Katy got out her Big Impact Gun and shot at STEM, to which he dodged.

"I am the cure to the disease." STEM then shoots out lasers out of his eye.

Katy and Hakumei dodged the attack. Hakumei then sees a bright staff on the cougar, then she goes to it and grabs it, then examines it. "Wow. I might use this." She then turns to STEM, then she shoots out a blast out of the staff.

STEM blocked it completely. "Not as easy as you think." He then shoots at them again.

Hakumei blocked the laser, and it did hit one of the rifles.

"NO!" STEM said.

"Whippity pow. You got it!" Katy said.

"Thanks." Hakumei said.

"With that rifle gone, it'll destroy this whole place in about 30 seconds!" STEM said.

"You planted a self-destruct sequence in one of those guns?!" Yuko asked, frightened.

"Let's get out of here quick!" Riko said.

The team doesn't waste time to get out of the place through the portal.

"Seems like I'm just gonna let you die." Lucy makes a sinister smile, then she hacked the portal, then she goes through it and leaves. The portal then closes.

"And I thought I would do something better." STEM said before everything exploded.

Meta-Verse Department Agency

The portal opens up to the Agency, and everyone, including the newcomers, gets out of it.

"Is everyone alright?" Katy asked.

"Yeah. I'm fine." Toru said. "That was a close one."

Tsumiki notices the portal isn't closing. "Why isn't the portal closing?"

"I don't know." Paiman said.

Then, a creature came out of it.

This creature is a small light-blue octopoid-like alien with blue eyes and has two yellow star-like antennas and is riding in a blue saucer. This is Prunce.

"I came to you through that portal to warn you of a great danger that'll come to destroy you all." Prunce said.

"Did you hack into our portal as well?" Reg asked.

"Yes, I did. Anyways, beings known as the Three Prophets once to destroy your world. You better be ready, cause they show no mercy." Prunce said.

"Betcha I can tell." Konata said.

"So, we join you then?" Phos asked.

"Looks like it." Milk said.

Phos nodded. "Alright then."

"You better be sure to find my friend, Mikochi." Hakumei said.

Katy puts her hand on Hakumei's shoulder. "We'll find her. I promise."

Hakumei nodded. "Thanks."

"So, we're now members of this organization now. Sweet." Toru turns to us. "Sorry if this chapter felt a little rushed. I felt like that myself, too. Credit roll."

Next time: Survivors in an Alive State

And that's a wrap! The ending theme used in this arc is called Rise by MADKID from the anime series The Rising of the Shield Hero, which I don't own. I know what you're thinking. The Satellite City characters shouldn't be villains at all. Well, I want to give them a new twist of things, so I decided to make them villains instead. Like I said, this is my first solo chapter. My last solo chapter is coming up next, then I'll be working with 'sFanfic for the rest of the arc. Next time, it's time to finally meet the two survivors, Chito and Yuuri, as they ended up in a world more lively then theirs.

See you all in the next chapter of Meta-Verse.
