Hello and welcome to more LoCG, a warning that things will likely be slowing down quite a large bit soon. I only got two chapters left in the backlog and it's gotten harder to write now that I'm reaching the end of the story. Not because it isn't fun, but because I have less clear Ideas on this stretch between the now and the final sequence. I hope you all will continue to stick with my story even as the chapters become less frequent, I don't want to feel pressured so words of encouragement would definitely help. I will say, I do have other fic plans in mind. But I want to finish LoCG first before tackling any to them.
Anyways, onto reviews
whwsms:{Excalibur and it's scabbard definitely helped, but there's no doubt in my mind that Elizard can't throw down in a battle. Thank you for enjoying the battle, battles are apparently one of my strong-suits.}
Fencer29:{Actually, he probably did, as a lot of what we assume about Berserkers is wrong. Besides Ragnar was a Viking but he wasn't about war. Just… persuasion, so I decided to go with the idea he was more of a warrior king than a weapon. Besides you look at how Berserkers were used you realized they by all accounts can't be rampaging warriors. You don't use bloodthirsty out of control monsters as your personal royal guard.
I do agree that Elizard only got breaks when Carissa was out however.
The Sargasso I assumed is pretty big, it is called an island of sorts.}
5had0wHand:{This woman wanted to bring an electric guitar… to a formal meeting
Sometimes words are not required
Well wait no more
Glad you liked that
Hmm not in this story, but if any sequels happen… maaaybe}
Remember constructive criticism is both encouraged and desired. And with that out of the way, let this tale of an infinity commence once again.
Chapter 60
Rift Weaver
Yomikawa found herself unable to move, staring. Even as the armored girl who had appeared before them shifted between her human and serpentine forms, while she tore through Yomikawa's friends and colleagues.
Weaver was a child, that single thought is what echoed in Yomikawa's mind as Weaver's jaws were torn away from a terrified Anti-skill's face by a multi-colored blast from Gunha.
It didn't matter to Yomikawa that Weaver wasn't human. It didn't matter that she was a cosmic horror born from a mad god. Heck, it didn't even matter that she was brutally and gleefully eating her fellow anti-skill alive.
Not only did she look and act like one, but Weaver had admitted Index was her mother. Which meant no matter when or how she was conceived, as disturbing a thought that was. Weaver could not be older than Index.
So, weaver was a child, no matter how Yomikawa sliced it, that's all it took to render her helpless.
A blast of electricity struck Weaver as Misaka attempted to shock the girl. However, instead the current was redirected across her armor and sent towards their allies.
The horrors of last Christmas came flooding back to Yomikawa. Operation handcuffs had radicalized more than a few of Anti-skills members. Even now, Yomikawa watched in horror as she saw some of those people. Teachers she had stood side by side with against those who'd harm their students.
Break
They raised their rifles, knowing they held lethal rounds, knowing that the beast before them was a little girl. And fired, they screamed in horror and fear, as that girl, Weaver, would bear her mandibles and snatch them up.
There was once a group of former Anti-skill members who fell to Academy City's darkside. They were known as DA, Disciplinary Action. A group of radicalized Anti-skill who felt they needed to control the espers.
Yomikawa had understood why after Handcuffs, and the scene before her only hammered it home.
They had feared the espers, feared those children made weapons. Feared what they'd do with their power, and who could blame them?
But Yomikawa, even now, couldn't harm a child, she found her grip loosening and her weapons fall to the ground. Even as Weaver's Mandibles closed in around her, she no longer wanted to fight.
"WHAT THE HELL DO YOU THINK YOUR DOING!?" A shout cut through her thoughts as Weaver's serpentine head was kicked aside. It slammed into the ground and burrowed beneath before Weaver burst out a little ways away in her human form.
Awaki's hands grabbed Yomikawa's shoulders, snapping her out of her stupor.
"I don't know what's going through your head, and I may not know you. But I'm pretty sure Accelerator would be utterly shattered if you died because you couldn't defend yourself!" Awaki said.
Yomikawa blinked as Awaki pulled them both through space avoiding Weaver's excited strike. "But… she… she's a child, I can-" Yomikawa began to say before Awaki cut her off.
"So what!? Yeah she's a child, but your weapon can't do anything to hurt her! Besides Isn't it your job as a teacher to discipline a child who misbehaves?" Awaki pushed an object through space causing it to smack into Weaver. "I don't know about you, but I'm pretty sure eating your teacher is misbehaving!"
"I know… I know, but… I… just can't" Yomikawa admitted in defeat, "I can't not after handcuffs… never again… not now…" she shook in uncertainty.
A set of white wings slammed into Weaver causing her to careen into the ground. Kakine Tetikou, or Beetle 05, landed, creating a group of dark matter beetles to aid him. Awaki sighed and rolled her eyes, "then you don't have to… but, don't you want to save that girl… Index?"
Index, Yomikawa didn't know her too well, but she knew enough to know how much she had changed.
Even Yomikawa had felt that primal fear when the girl turned god had shown up at that meeting. Yomikawa could barely breathe when Index's innocent voice had told them Kamijou Touma was alright.
But she also could see past that, to the broken and lost girl beneath. The one desperately clinging to all she loved, no matter the cost. In that moment, despite the fact, Index had without a doubt become an evil god.
Yomikawa had vowed to do what it took to save her So, despite being unable to lift her weapon, Yomikawa nodded. "Yes…" she said as Awaki shifted them through space again. "Then, help us give this naughty child a spanking" Awaki smirked using a crude term.
Weaver's mandibled burst out from space next to them just as Awaki finished. But this time, Yomikawa felt the grip on her shield tighten.
Rolling downwards Yomikawa braced herself feeling Weaver's head pass over her. Her segments pressed against the shield as Awaki vanished, avoiding her jaws. Moving up a moment, Weaver dived down into an arc smacking Misaka aside as she reverted to her human form.
Bouncing on one foot, Weaver turned around and smiled, "eh~ give me a spanking? that's mean!" she bent sideways and kicked as Gunha punched at her.
"Eating people is Gutless! Besides, it's unhealthy! You should eat fruits, nuts and vegetables along with pork or beef!" the number seven said even as he was launched back.
Yomikawa stood and glared at Weaver, "I am a teacher, and It's my job to make sure kids like you are on the right track, even if that means slapping some sense into you."
Weaver pouted, and leapt up, slamming her feet down atop Misaka Mikoto who had tried to flank her. Her hand whipped out and smacked Shirai just as the teleporter appeared in the air behind her. "But, what If I don't want to have sense slapped into me?" she tilted her head with an innocent smile.
"Then I just need to do it anyways," Yomikawa said as she prepared to charge.
"Ah! I'm in trouble~" Weaver squealed excitedly and leapt forward at Yomikawa.
Sidestepping in response, Yomikawa bent her shield so Weaver deflected to the side. Kinuhata came in from above and slammed her fist against Weaver.
The young child of the Devourer bounced across the ground from the impact and rolled to her feet. She blinked in confusion at a ray of light that was being reflected onto her by Etzali, before a chunk of the sargasso smacked her.
"That's more like it Anti-skill!" Awaki smiled as she landed besides Tsuchimikado.
The spy nodded, brows furrowed, "Indeed-nyah," he turned to Weaver as he jumped away from her as she sent a sphere of plasma at him. "Say Weaver… why are you trying to kill us? Last I checked, Index didn't want any of us dead."
That was true, Index only wanted Stiyl dead, not them, yet despite that the things she had summoned had definitely killed a number of them. Did she change her mind? Lose control? Or something else?
Weaver giggled and bent back as a column of multicolored light was launched towards her. "Eh? That old thing? Mommy certainly doesn't want you dead, you're all part of Touma's world. But she also doesn't want you stopping her, so that's why she summoned us!"
"Then why did those Anti-skill members die!?" Misaka shouted in anger as she fired a number of railguns at Weaver. "Cause those things were clearly out to kill!" a sphere of ionized air was launched at Weaver who took it face first.
Yomikawa was about to shout when the sphere faded and Weaver was seen chewing… something. The young girl grabbed Misaka by the face as she charged and threw her into Takitsubo who was next to Hamazura.
"Cause I hijacked them, duh!" Weaver teased, "mommy was a little lazy so she didn't put much effort into controlling them. Just gave a really, really simple attack but don't kill command," she burst into her serpentine form. Snatching Gunha mid air before a number of white shells slammed into her forcing her to let go.
Whipping her tail, Weaver launched a number of plasma spheres at the group. Yomikawa rolled to the side avoiding one while Misaka redirected another with electromagnetism. Kinuhata tackled Hamazura and Takisubo away from a third, while Kakine stopped a fourth with his wings.
"Soo~ It was really, really easy for me to take over once mommy got distracted!" Weaver returned to her human form and tackled Kuroko, her jaws moving to clamp around her arm.
Yomikawa slammed her shield into the girl, giving Kuroko the chance to teleport. "So you made them kill us!? Why!? Why would you do that?"
Weaver snapped at Yomikawa, her jaws too close for comfort, "Because Mommy has everything I don't!" the Rift Weaver shouted.
Yomikawa was pulled through space just as the girl's jaws snapped forward. "Everything you don't? How's that an excuse?"
Weaver tilted her head and deflected a strike from Kakine with her wrist. "It isn't, I'm jealous of mommy, she made me this way, I am like her, but I'm not her. Mommy is a god, and I'm just a worm, Mommy has someone she wants to protect, and I have no one. Mommy has everything, and I have nothing, I doubt she even realized that I have feelings." The Rift Weaver snarled, "So, I'll take everything, I want everything of mommy's!" she stamped her foot like a spoiled child.
Tsuchimikado's eyes widened in realization "ah, I get it… you're her gluttony, her lust, and envy, she created you to vent that. Likely not quite understanding what she was doing, you're her artistic expression of those feelings."
It was tragic in a way, Weaver had nothing of her own, even her feelings of envy were her mother's own feelings. So in a way, she was right to be mad, to be jealous, to desire what her mother had.
"That doesn't give you the right to hurt us," Yomikawa said softly, "your beef is with her, not us."
Weaver put a finger to her lips in thought, "hmmmm good point…" before an unsettling grin graced her face. "But I'm hungry and you guys taste good," she licked her lips and her jaws snapped. "So… I think I'll just have you all for lunch!" Weaver crouched purple energy dancing across her body before she launched forward.
Yomikawa barely moved in time to avoid her, but instead found the girl's hand's emerging behind her. She hurtled forward as Weaver pinned her to the ground like a cat, her jaws snapping forward towards her shoulder.
However, gunfire caught her attention as it deflected off her body, "hey! stop that, it's annoying!" she pouted.
That gave Yomikawa a chance to shove her off, she was really heavy for a girl her size. Which made sense considering she was actually an exceedingly large worm that was condensed into the form of a little girl. If anything she was a little too light for her mass, making it clear she was altering her weight.
Kuroko appeared and moved Yomikawa before Weaver could snap at them. "Well, thankfully she'd got the attention span of a child as well," the judgment teleporter noted.
A mass of Ironsand rose from the ground as Misaka slammed it into Weaver. It became a vortex of shredding death as the number 3 attempted to damage the girl. However it did nothing as a burst of purple flames consumed the particles.
Weaver launched out and turned once more into the armored serpent. Her jaws clamped onto Misaka and the girl screamed in horror as Weaver attempted to devour her.
Gunha, and Kakine flanked Weaver, as Etzali activated a spell set up by Tsuchimikado. A column of light slammed down on her head as Kakine's Darkmatter fist, and Gunha's multicolored 'amazing punch' hit her neck.
Misaka flew out of the serpent's jaws and Kuroko caught her teleporting away. Landing next to Uiharu and Saten, Kuroko turned to Yomikawa.
"Okay, this is getting out of hand! She nearly ate my Onee-sama!" Kuroko growled.
Misaka coughed and shook slightly glowing saliva off her, "who ever said I was yours?, ow… this stuff hurts." The level five winced as Uiharu pressed a button on her computer.
"We have no idea what properties… Weaver's body has, so get that off as quickly as you can." Uiharu stated as her FIVE_Overs moved into action at weaver.
Yomikawa used her shield to ground a bolt of electricity that had scattered from Weaver. "We need a plan either way, and I don't know how to deal with her," she hated that she had to rely on children.
Awaki made a face before tapping Uiharu's shoulder, "you, judgment girl," Uiharu glanced at her. "What would happen if something was teleported from within a highly non-euclidian spatially distorted space? Or… whatever."
Uiharu made a very weird expression as Kuroko sighed, "she's not gonna be able to answer that…" the teleporter stated. "Really depends on the type of non-euclidian space," Kuroko crossed her arms.
Misaka grimaced as she scrubbed the last of the glowing saliva off her. "I'm no expert but would that create a singularity?"
Kuroko shook her head "not without a third value of extreme distortion or something similar to a singularity"
Awaki grinned ", liiiike a rift?" she pointed to the large gate where the weaver had come from.
A clear void of purple could be seen on the other side, floating objects could be made out in the hase of the rift.
Misaka, Uiharu and Kuroko's eyes widened, "that… might work, if you warp space in on itself so we're in a self-contained bubble. And then I teleport this, Weaver, into her own rift, the sudden movement through highly distorted non-euclidian space using the 11th dimension. Into a wormhole, or rift, could cause the gate to collapse in on itself as it forms a singularity. This would force the gate closed as gravity exceeds the speed of light within it."
A giggle and shout was heard as Weaver crushed the FIVE_Over Meltdowner and threw one of its arms into Kinuhata. She munched on a portion of it even as a blade of darkmatter struck her.
Misaka bit her lip "You'll still need to catch her off guard, she's been wary of her," she stated. "Which makes our jobs giving you that moment right?" a grin, "time for payback" Misaka used magnetism to launch herself at Weaver.
The girl attempted to grab Misaka but Gunha's fist came in from the side. "AMAZING PUUUUUNNNCH!" the number 7 shouted.
Misaka blinked and grinned before electricity danced across her. Weaver halted mid flight and was flung into a wall as Misaka used magnetism to manipulate her armor.
"Whoaaaa!" Weaver giggled, "this is fun!" her jaws snapped and she bit seemingly thin air. However Misaka's grim broke as Weaver ducked aside from a set of bullets fired by Tsuchimikado and Hamazura. "Hey! No face!" the girl pouted as she rolled from a Darkmatter beetle.
"Aim for the face?" Hamazura asked Tsuchimkado with a raised eyebrow.
"Aim for the face," Tsuchimikado confirmed as he fired at Weaver's eyes.
This only irritated the girl as she growled at the two. "I said…" she charged at the two, "NOT THE FACE!" Weaver burst into a worm as her mandibles attempted to snatch up the two level 0s.
However, Yomikawa leapt in from the side and slammed against Weaver with her shield. The serpent's head was redirected to the side where Kinuhara's fist collided with it.
Weaver careened into the ground kicking up dirt, dust and chunks of shipwreck. Weaver roared in anger as she burst from the ground in her human form. "NO FAAAAAIIIIIIIRRRRRRR!" she began stopping the ground in a tantrum. "No fair, no fair, no faaaaaair! You can't shoot my face and then take advantage of me being distracted!" she growled and glared at them.
"All is fair in love and war!" Etzali grinned as he placed his hand on a pouch next to his hip.
Misaka made a face but nodded, "it's your own fault for being immature," ironsand rose around Misaka. However it was red in coloration showing it was oxidized. She blinked and grinned, "so you really shouldn't yell at us."
Gunha crossed his arms glaring, "you're the gutless child who's eating Anti-skill members. You don't get to tell us what's unfair."
"One always uses any tactic they can in a battle," Kakine stated, his green eyes gauging Weaver as he drifted slightly above the ground.
Weaver was silent for a moment as her head hung, fists shaking the ground shook. Purple electricity danced around her as she bared her snarling teeth. Shrapnel and rubble drifted into the air around her as a crater formed around her.
"Anything you say?" her head rose in a sneer, "ah… yeah that's right" she tilted her head, eyes closed innocently. "I'm a lesser-devourer," a chill ran down everyone's spines as Weaver ripped a beholder out of the air below the rift.
Her jaws closed around it and she rapidly devoured the aberration in a savage frenzy.
Seeing this Misaka kicked forward, rusted iron sand tearing into the ground, grinding bits of aluminum up. Sparks flew and ignited the metal shavings, Misaka pulling more and more iron-oxide and aluminum dust into the thermite blades.
Gunha leapt into the air kicking off the air… for some reason, as he pulled back his fist. Energy crackling around him as he prepared to strike.
Kakine's wings formed a spear around him as he hurtled towards Weaver.
Kinuhata charged from the side, Hamazura fired his pistol alongside Tsuchimikado who tossed for different colored origami figures in plastic containers in the for directions.
Etzali, opened the pouch at his side and a long strip of paper poured out wrapping around him as he pulled a obsidian blade out.
Yet despite all of them attacking at once, they were a moment too late
Weaver's head rose as she wiped blood from her lips, and she grinned as a single vibrant purple eye opened on her forehead.
…
Awaki nearly swore when she saw Misaka's Thermite blades dissolve, the energy around gunha dissipate, and Kakine's wings disintegrate. The eye of the beholder which Weaver now possessed robbing all in its gaze of their power.
"ONEE-" Kuroko began to shout, but Saten grabbed her and covered her mouth.
"Don't give us away Shirai! Misaka's doing what she can to give you two the chance to strike." Saten hissed at the pervert teleporter and glanced at Uiharu, "they need help"
Uiharu nodded, "I know… but I don't think Shirai and Awaki can get that chance if they don't help them."
Awaki raised an eyebrow as Weaver was seen battling Yomikawa. The issue with the Beholder's anti-magic eye was that it meant Weaver herself could not use any supernatural powers not innate to her body. Meaning Yomikawa, a perfectly ordinary Human, could keep her at bay, even if only for a little bit.
However, it was clear that eating the Anti-skill members earlier had granted Weaver their skills. Yomikawa could barely keep up with the kicks, palm strikes and leg sweeps Weaver was dishing out.
Awaki turned to Uiharu, "You mean they'll lose?" but she only made an iffy gesture.
"More like, you've had multiple opportunities already, but they last too short a time to take advantage of," Uiharu stated. "She's exceedingly childish, which makes it difficult to predict her outbursts. But by the time I can it'll be too late," Yomikawa got knocked back so Uiharu pressed a key, firing the orbital cannon.
It collided with Weaver, who vanished into the column of light. It slowly faded and Weaver was seen shaking her head in annoyance. Confusion on her face as she avoided a strike from Misaka who tried to create thermite blades again.
"But, if we instigate her, we can continue to annoy her till she loses her cool" Kuroko stated. As she observes Weaver's antimagic eye open again, depriving Misaka of her power. Energy was released from her palm at point blank with the railgun's face.
Misaka only avoided it due to already falling backwards. The beam of light released tore away an area of the sargasso in the distance as Weaver rotated around countering Yomikawa's left hook.
Awaki looked confused, "how come we can't let someone else do that? Tsuchimikado and Hamazura certainly succeeded there. Both Yomikawa and Gunha got a hit in on her, what's the difference?" she asked.
It really didn't make that much sense to Awaki, all they needed was to distract Weaver. And she was clearly susceptible to being annoyed.
Saten raised a hand, "um… if I may?" she gulped, "I think it's because, the fact that the surprise caused by the two, snapped her out of her rage."
"Exactly," Uiharu confirmed, "the new element caused her guard to go up."
"Meaning, if we surprised her, she'd no longer be vulnerable to our attack," Kuroko said.
Awaki held her head in confusion, "that doesn't make sense, wouldn't the same happen if we were already the target?"
"Actually, no," Uiharu began, "If you are the one who she's targeting she'll forgo her defenses in favor of attacking. Even if you began to shift space, due to it being a 'familiar' element unlike a surprise attack. She wouldn't feel the need to put her guard up for something that she can already see."
Kuroko scoffed, "the arrogance of a child, makes sense actually, she's already attacking us so why should anything we do matter if she's gonna kill us before then?"
Uiharu fired the orbital cannon again, as its light faded Weaver shook her head unharmed. Misaka sparked up and tried to attack, but Weaver stamped her foot. Releasing all the energy she had absorbed from the cannon at once.
Kakine barely managed to summon his wings in time to guard. Misaka used her ability to deflect the energy while pulling herself back. Gunha tanked the blast as he was sent flying back.
An entire 5 meter radius around Weaver had vaporized from the blast as she drifted in the air. Her anti-magic eye open, she glanced around and ducked back just as Kinuhata tried to strike from behind.
"Get out of her line of sight!" Kinuhata shouted, she attempted to get behind her. Weaver only giggled and a blast of plasma cut through the air.
Misaka went to strike her from the side once again, sporting thermite blades. Weaver brought her armguard up and met the molten metal. Misaka gritted her teeth as the sparks flew and Weaver turned, closing the anti-magic eye.
Eyes went wide as Misaka used Magnetism to bend Weaver's face away from her. A glittering beam exited one of the girl's eyes. It slammed into a chunk of the sargasso and a 3 meter cubic area was turned to dust.
"Great! She has disintegrating laser eyes now!" Misaka swore before Weaver grabbed her face and slammed her into the ground.
Jaws went for the now terrified level 5's face before white wings slammed into Weaver. "Good to know!" Kakine commented as he used his ability to create a number of ball bearings for Mikoto. "Try those, might do something," he said leaping back as Weaver sent a plasma beam at him.
Misaka nodded and pulled herself away with magnetism before finding her ability gone again. Weaver's antimagic eye opened, the ball bearings vanished having been made from dark matter. "Damn it!" Mikoto swore before she rolled to the side. Weaver's hand carved into the sargasso before a multicolored explosion struck her back.
She responded to Gunha's attack by grabbing his face as he charged her. Slamming him into the ground, before deflecting a few bullets from Tsuchimikado and Hamazura. Turning into her serpentine form once more, Weaver charged Kakine. Depriving him of his ability as she did so.
Sighing, Awaki rolled her eyes, "yeah… your right, lets go judgment teleporter!"
"You don't get to tell me what to do! I'm only doing this for Onee-sama!" Kuroko responded.
They teleported, Kuroko sending her needles into Weaver's segments. She landed on her just as Awaki shifted a chunk of debris through space to smack into Weaver's head.
Weaver slammed into the ground to the side as the two lept off her. Returning to her human form and stumbling to her feet.
"She really does have mommy issues doesn't she?" Awaki grinned.
Kuroko flicked her hair back, "eh, better than daddy issues, those are cliche."
Shaking her head weaver glared at them, her antimagic eye trained on them. "Something wrong with mommy issues!?" she growled.
Kakine tried to slam into her with his wings from the side. A dark matter beetle firing a mortar at her from behind. But Weaver caught him and threw him into the dark matter Mortar.
Even then Kakine stumbled to his feet. "Eh, they're overrated," he smirked, joining in the mocking. The dark matter beetle melted away as he was weakened, the anti magic eye slowly destroying Kakine's body.
A metal bar was flung into Weaver's legs, tripping her over. Misaka charged in, thermite blades ablaze to strike. She didn't seem to have gotten the hint as she didn't try to mock Weaver as she leapt down.
Weaver only sneered as the beholder eye on her forehead was now facing directly upwards, catching both in her gaze. Kaking ducked back, but Misaka fell forward eyes wide as Weaver reached up to bite her.
"NOT AGAIN! I hate your disgusting teeth!" Misaka shrieked. This caused Weaver to forgo biting her and instead kick her into Yomikawa, who had begun to approach.
"I'll have you know my teeth are clean! Sterile even!" Weaver growled. She charged, the two prepared to shift into a worm again.
But Instead Weaver found herself falling through the ground and tumbling into Awaki's spatially distorted poles. "Hey, eyes here you dumb brat!" she snarked and smacked her.
Weaver tumbled back and got kicked in the back of the head by Kuroko. "Really, your attention span is worse than a dog's!" the teleporter mocked.
Closing her antimagic eye she released a blaze of purple flames from her jaws. Kuroko and Awaki avoided it, but the flames vaporized everything in their path. Weaver turned, catching Kuroko's foot in her jaws as the girl tried to strike her from behind.
A strip of paper with weird inscriptions on it, slammed into Weaver. She coughed, dropping Kuroko as Etzali grinned and used the obsidian knife on an object above her. The shrapnel fell on her as Etzali also mocked her, "Honestly, you're just a tantruming child who wants mommy to pay attention to her."
Weaver snapped at Etzali, she leapt at him and pinned him to the ground. The boy was guarded by the paper, a Grimore he took from a friend. But Weaver's jaws grabbed it and tried to consume the book.
However, she was sent back by a multicolored explosion. "Blaming your mother for your issues is Gutless, eating people who never bothered you is Gutless! You are the most gutless person I've ever met!" Gunha roared. He likely had no clue that mocking Weaver was in the plan and probably wasn't even trying to mock her.
But Weaver only got more upset, her hand lashed out and grabbed Gunha's face. She bit down on his shoulder and he screamed in pain, shock written all over his face.
A bullet hit her eyes and she yelped in pain, dropping Gunha who rolled way. "Nyah! The sentai hero's right, your gutless, you may be a cute little sister but even I wouldn't tap you!" Tsuchimikado said firing another round at Weaver.
"Okay, gross, but yeah, second she's just a child so really it's to be expected." Hamazura grinned uncertainty as he fired his own gun at Weaver's face.
A vibrant blast of multicolored energy was thrown from Weaver's fist, having sapped a little of Gunha's ability earlier. "I said… NOT THE FACE, WHY DO YOU KEEP ATTACKING MY FACE!?" she roared.
However her eyes went wide as soon as she noticed the blast suddenly appear in front of her face. She was sent flying and crashed into the ground as an object appeared above her head falling onto her face.
"Because you keep telling us not to," Awaki rolled her eyes.
Kuroko scoffed, "honestly, if you tell us not to target it, of course we're gonna target it. What are you? 5? Oh wait, you are, 5 hours that is."
Weaver's eyes swam in anger before Yomikawa slammed into her from the side.
"Children like you need to be punished for your foolishness!" Yomikawa shouted as she grappled the girl. "Please stop this stupidity Weaver," but the lesser devourer was having none of it.
Tossing Yomikawa into the air with her superior strength, Weaver shifted into a worm once more. Mandibles open ready to swallow the anti-skill woman, however she was pulled to the side by magnetism.
Mikoto glared and used a massive iron-sand fist to smack Weaver's head. Electricity coursed through the serpent's plates and Weaver shrieked in anger. "Oh quit your whining! That idiot's dealt with way worse than this!" Misaka mocked having figured out the plan.
Gunha leapt off the ground, catching Yomikawa, he kicked off Weaver's head, sending her into the ground. "Don't eat a teacher when she's trying to help! How gutless can you become!?"
Weaver shivered and roared in anger reverting to her human form again. The beholder eye closed, as she launched a sphere of vibrant purple energy out but Takisubo managed to catch it.
This shocked Weaver and made Hamazura's jaw drop as his girlfriend smiled.
"Catch!" she said pushing her hands forward, this redirected the energy back at Weaver.
Weaver's jaws opened and she bit into the energy, reabsorbing it, but then Kinuhata kicked her face from the side. "You're super brattish and annoying, no wonder that god doesn't think you have feelings," she rotated around and headlocked Weaver. "You're like someone's shitty super OC who never was given any character development"
Weaver flung her head forward slamming Kinuhata into the ground, the beholder eye opening again. "Shut up!" Weaver shouted, trying to bite Kinuhata's head off. "I'm not a brat! I'm the Rift Weaver! I can tear holes in the fabric of reality, consume the essence of beings and incorporate them into my own! I have the potential to become a great devourer myself! Just because mommy didn't create me with the knowledge of the world doesn't make me stupid!"
Weaver threw Kinuhata into the air and turned to the armored serpent once more. Her jaws enveloped the esper and she thrashed her head around.
As her voice echoed out from the beast she continued a tearful rant. "I can create complex gateways connecting two distant points using relativistic spatial warping, I can replicate a creature's structure down to the smallest molecule when I shape shift!" Her immense tail slammed down, knocking Kakine and Gunha back as the sound of flesh being pierced was heard in her jaws. "But it just isn't enough! Mommy is just that much more! I was given her dregs and she just left me!"
A squelching noise was heard as shouts traveled down Weaver's armored body. The mandible'd head turned, lunging at Kakine as her tail slammed Awaki. Beams of light scattered from the crystal eyes on her segments, forcing people to scatter.
"She just created me, and threw me aside! Left me to just exist, no knowledge, no understanding, NO FAMILY!" Her mandibles nearly snatched onto Kakine as his body slowly disintegrated. But Gunha barely managed to knock him away in time, instead subjecting himself to the Rift Weaver's jaws.
He screamed in pain as Weaver Threw him to the side and released a vibrant purple fire from her jaws. Spheres of Plasma forming over her head as strikes of lightning struck down around her.
The world shook as weaver's segments began to spark with vibrant purple energy. "She summoned me just because she had use, yeah she made me, yeah she gave me life! BUT SHE DOESN'T HAVE THE RIGHT TO DEPRIVE ME OF A LIFE!" Weaver swung her jaws down on Yomikawa, "I'm Jealous of her! The world I live in is cruel, no one wants me, no one listens to me, they learn what I am and cast me aside! The world mommy lives in even when she became a monster those around her still want to protect her. She's loved, adored and even worshiped and respected!"
Yomikawa's shield barely saved her as she was knocked back as Weaver's mandibles glanced off it.
"And above all! She has someone she wants to protect, someone she loves! The more and more I hear and learn about him, the more and more I want him as well! Someone who would see past the fact I'm a cosmic worm, someone who'd treat me as an equal despite being a monster! Someone who would be willing to save me even if the whole world was against me! I want that, I want ALL OF IT!" her mandibles struck out to grab Misaka as she tried to avoid Weaver's tail. "So, I'll take it all, every last scrap, all for myself! so I can enjoy the things I Deserve!" Misaka dodged to the side but was slammed into the air by Weaver's tail. Jaws open, the armored serpent, whom was a tragic child attempted once more to devourer the Railgun.
However a series of bullets and beams slammed into her face from a six wings and FIVE_Over. Then a large claw-like object hit the abdomen of the serpent. Causing Kinuhata, who was covered in vibrantly glowing fluids on her, clothes and skin partially dissolved, to be coughed out by Weaver.
Uiharu grinned while standing on a large crablike machine which made Misaka gawk. "What? And that gives you an excuse to attack and kill anyone who is part of that world? Are our words eating at you?" she slammed the claw of the machine into Weaver. "Cause you really are a worm, wiggling in the dirt," the crablike Machine with the words FIVE_Over OS- Accelerator, grabbed Weaver's head and threw her into the ground of the sargasso.
"UIHARU!?" Misaka shouted, "where on earth did you get that?!" her eye twitched.
Uiharu smirked "airdrop, you guys were too busy with Weaver to notice."
Awaki… wasn't sure that's what had happened but then again she was kinda busy at the time…
Dust began to settle as Weaver returned to a human form and stumbled to her feet shaking in fury and growling. Her eyes were twitching with instability her mind clearly shattering. "I…was gonna take my time, but… but… you, not only do you all keep targeting my face… the one thing that I have of my own." The world shook as the air became tinged a hue of blue. "But you have the nerve to mock me for being upset because of the neglect my mother gave me," her voice was a low growl as she stood there
Misaka went to strike Weaver, but was thrown back by an invisible force.
"SO I'M GONNA JUST KILL YOU ALL NOW!" Weaver roared as her anti-magic eye closed. Multiple eyestalks emerged from the back of her neck before her two original eyes opened. Only now, did Awaki feel it may not have been such a good idea to mock the girl so much.
Awaki and Kuroko teleported just as a glitter was seen in her eyes. A loose chunk of sargasso behind Kuroko suddenly turned to stone. And the ground where Awaki once was disintegrated,
Each eyestalk fired a beam at different people as Weaver roared in rage, her mind overwhelmed by fury.
One hit Hamazura and he fell over, unable to move behind a chunk of wreckage. Tsuchimikado dodged the one aimed at him, it hit a bird flying by causing it to suddenly move in slow motion. Takisubo caught the beam that was aimed at her and redirected it up. Kinuhata went to defend and was hit, suddenly screaming running of in terror. Yomikawa barely avoided her's, it hit a seagull which fell off its perch, dead. Gunha charged right into his and stumbled, falling asleep. Kakine pulled his wings in front of him to dodge, but was hit. His wings crumbled as he was forced into his original form and fell onto his back, his beetle legs wiggling.
Awaki and Kuroko landed right on either side of Weaver, focused looks on their faces. Tackling the girl, Awaki began distorting space for all three of them..
Kuroko Rotated around, griping Weaver's back as Weaver roared in rage. Beams of energy launched from the eyestalks and her own gaze. Kuroko teleported away before she was hit and Awaki shifted herself down avoiding the rays.
"Judgment!" she shouted and Kuroko nodded, the world slowly curving up around them.
Weaver vanished, appearing behind Kuroko, space itself shook every time she did so. Kuroko ducked away as Weaver's gauntlet swiped down, it instead carved through a distorted chunk of rubble.
Kuroko rolled up on a wall nearby, teleporting a few needles. They pierced into Weaver's flesh and she shrieked in pain.
"That… HUUURRT!" she swung her fists down releasing a multicolored explosion outwards. Awaki slipped through space between the shockwaves, and Kuroko teleported away.
Space was no longer stable, and all the teleporting didn't help things. Every time they did, the object being moved would stretch out like it was being spaghettified.
They needed to hurry, Weaver burst into a worm and her jaws snapped shut around Awaki. The vibrant purple flesh and poisonous fangs attempting to strike her.
"Oh no! I am not food!" Awaki shouted, she kicked a distorted metal chunk back and Weaver coughed her out.
Slipping through space she washed herself with a stream of ocean water. Wever shook her serpentine head but roared in pain as a large panel carved her in half.
Reverting to a human form, Weaver's wounds healed and she released a vibrant purple breath. The beams of energy being released from her eyes weren't even aimed anymore.
Kuroko teleported as she sent multiple needles into her. "Awaki!" Kuroko shouted and her fellow teleported nodded.
"On it!" she said slipping through space, She kicked a large boat, it slipped off it's section of space distorting into a spear as it fell at weaver.
Weaver roared seeing this and sent a multi-colored, vibrant purple coiled blast of energy vaporizing the boat.
"WHY WON'T YOU ALL DIE!?" she shouted as the sargasso seemed to bend around them in an inverted sphere. Lines bent, curves lengthened and space warped in on itself around them. Weaver's rift suspended high above their heads as she squirmed in a desperate attempt to throw them off.
"Non-euclidian space Weaver, It bends according to perception!" Awaki sneered. "But you'll know all about it when we send you back home!"
Weaver snarled and grabbed Awaki, "Not if I eat you first!" her antimagic eye began to open as her jaws closed around Awaki
"As much as It'd please me to see her go, I can't let you do that," Kuroko stated her hand on Weaver's shoulder.
Weaver's eyes widened as she went to change her target, "Oh Cra-"
Kuroko teleported Weaver directly into the rift she had created. It grew black and a whining roaring sound was heard. Weaver's roars fading as space twisted in, around the distortion.
The two Teleporterd grabbed onto the ground before them as the rift collapsed. Chunks of loose debris flying into the singularity as space itself folded into itself.
But the shaking continued as light began leaking out of the black hole. "I…Willl… not… GO BACK!" Weaver roared trying to pull herself out.
"How… the actual fuck is she doing that!?" Kuroko swore as Weaver attempted the impossible.
Awaki fumbled around and handed her remaining distorted pipe to Kuroko. A nod from her told Kuroko what to do.
Turning to Weaver Awaki grit her teeth, "Well, TO BAD!" she shouted and Kuroko teleported the object.
The distorted object pushed Weaver back as it was shoved into the same space. Due to the distorted object having been teleported into a rift, in a spatially distorted area. The scales tipped to an extreme, and a singularity formed.
The rift collapsed completely, as gravity began to fail around it. But then, the whining roar died down as the black sphere shrunk and vanished. The distorted space vanished with it as Awaki could no longer sustain it.
Silence fell across the battlefield as the storm overhead faded, only the sound of the ocean could be heard.
As her eyes closed Awaki felt sleep take her.
She could leave the rest to the magicians.
A/N: just a reminder, the updates will be slowing down soon, I fully intend to complete LoCG. I love writing this… especially this Yan-god-dex. But I'll need more time to write chapters as I don't have as clear of an idea for them. So, patience, I'm not going anywhere and I still don't have a life yet sooo got nothing better to do XD.
Anyways… I really bullied poor Misaka and Kinuhata in this chapter didn't I?
