Baneful Transformation,
Self Righteousness,
and Ground Zero
(Onechanbara ZII Chaos-Bloody Sabbath)
My intel suggests this facility was originally an organic research lab. I don't know exact details about what was studied within, but experiments in both brainwashing and cloning have been documented. Due to the thickness of the walls, however, I'm going to lose my signal with you in there. Good luck, and please...come back in one piece!" Anna said as the group entered the facility and began their infiltration.
"Don't worry about a thing. We'll wrap this up in no time!" Kagura confidently said.
"That's right. I'll do my best as well." Saaya said with confidence as well.
"Okay, let's do this thing!" Saki said.
"Let's give it everything we got!" Ace said.
"Time to show Evange what happens when you mess with Spirit Force!" Roy said.
"She has entered a fight she has no hope of winning." Azura said.
"See? We're good to go! Catch you later, Anna." Aya said.
The group delved further into the facility fighting through hordes of undead spirits and as soon as they went into a hallway the door that leads further in shut itself as a machine with three drills started to slowly move towards them.
"Tch! A trap.." Saki said.
"That drill! It's c-coming right at us!" Saaya said pointing at the machine.
"Calm down. There has to be a way to stop it." Aya said as Ace looked at the drills and an orb in the center.
"Anyone who can use a long range attack, concentrate fire on the drills and core!" Ace yelled as he summoned Final Judgement and began shooting at it along with Jago, Maya, Mari, Al, Aya, Leviathan, Fefnir, Harpuia, Phantom, and Kagura as they used their own long-range attacks and were able to destroy the machine and continued forward.
"We're out of range." Aya said getting static from her comm.
"*sigh* Gotta say, I do feel a little helpless here." Kagura said.
"We have to go in. Backup or no." Saaya said.
"We're here to help you every step of the way girls." Ace said to the four as they nodded their heads at him.
As they neared the final room they were ambushed by the various undead spirits they encountered and the two zombie schoolgirls they encountered in LA. The group fought valiantly and managed to defeat them all and entered the final room where they saw Evange waiting for them.

"Well now, you all have come quite far...which must mean…" Evange trailed off impressed before being interrupted by Kagura.
"Means you're all that's left, bitch. You might as well just surrender." Kagura said as she glared at Evange.
"Your time has come. There is no escape." Saaya said glaring as well.
"It's over Evange your minions have been defeated and your the only one left, give up!" Ace said as he readied his sword.
"Hahaha! How quaint. Even with all your strength, your resolution is utterly blind, isn't it? You just take out the enemies you've been ordered to...You truly are sheep among sheeple." Evange said as she laughed.
"What would you know?! You have no idea who we are! No idea what we've gone through!" Saki said to Evange.
"You have no idea how many people we lost that were close to us, so stop acting like you know every damn thing!" Ace yelled at Evange.
"You're the ones without a clue. You understand nothing of the Banefuls, or the worlds true nature… Nothing!" Evange said.
"So what?! As long we protect the people we care about we don't care about knowing the world's true nature!" Ace countered.
"Tch. You've really lost it, you know that?" Aya said to Evange.
"...Rage at me if you must. Once my research is complete, the Banefuls and the Vampirics alike will be no more. It won't be long now. Soon, the world will be reborn into a paradise devoid of conflict." Evange said.
"But why?! We live our own lives, day by day. We make our own futures. There's not a soul out there who wants this! Not from you!" Saaya said.
"Hee hee. Are you worried I'm going to kill you? That's not my intention! You all have an important role to play in this brave new world!" Evange said as she laughed crazily.
"You're just tryin' to piss us off now! Everyone let's go!" Kagura said as everyone readied their weapons and charged at Evange.
"You will soon learn…..of your own inadequacies...and the power of your Creator!" Evange said. "Now then… Let's see what you all are made of!" She said as the battle began.
"Aya, you better not hold back on us!" Kagura said while slashing at Evange.
"Course not. What about you Ace?" Aya asked while throwing knives at Evange.
"She's going down! And we're gonna send her to Hell!" Ace yelled as he launched energy waves of Angelic and Demonic energy at Evange while Harpuia launched sonic booms at her and Leviathan fired mini torpedoes at her.
"We should help too, Saki!" Saaya said.
"Yeah. I don't give a crap about this remaking-the-world stuff...I just wanna kick her ass!" Saki said.
"Damn straight sister!" Fefnir said as the three of them repeatedly punched at Evange.
Jago charged in and unleashed his Ultra Combo on her giving no time for recovery as Maya did the same as she slashed at Evange with Temperance and Vengeance.
Then it was Azura and Roy's turn as Azura launched a wave of water at Evange and Roy unleashed his Final Smash on her leaving her in a daze.
Ace then dashed forward as he dealt the final blow Evange tried to attack but she got her sword knocked away as well as her gun when she attempted to shoot him and got sent flying as Minerva flew above her and impaled her with Hauteclaire.
She then walked back a bit after taking damage as a yellow aura flared around her.
"DAAAAAAMN YOOOOOOOOU..." She yelled as her appearance changed.
"Shit. Her too? I knew it…" Kagura muttered annoyed.

"Why won't you understand? You too must desire a world without conflict!" Evange said pointing at the group.
"Sorry, but fake peace...doesn't do it for me." Saki said pointing her sword at Evange.
"And you should know by now that conflict is never ending no matter how much you try to stop it, you're a fool." Ace said as translucent forms of his Eidolon's weapon forms circled around him while his eyes glowed rainbow.
"We're going to put an end to this right now!" Aya said.
"Yes!" Saaya said pumping her fists in front of her chest.
"The twenty of us can do it!" Saki said as everyone readied for battle once again.
"This is it everyone, give it all you got!" Ace said as everyone charged.
"I've had enough of this. I don't need witnesses anymore. I can bring about this new world all on my own! Now die! Perish, and leave nothing behind!" Evange yelled in rage.
"First you're not gonna kill us, now you are? Make up your damned mind!" Aya said as she attacked Evange with her Twin Swords.
"If you can't make up your own mind you can just drop dead!" Ace said attacking with Hellfire and Diamond Dust.
"Yeah! When did we ever say we were going to be your witnesses in the first place?!" Kagura said as she did a Z slash.
"What you propose would throw the entire world into chaos. And for what?!" Saaya demanded as she spinned with her chainsaw.
"Baneful, Vampiric, Nephilim...It makes no difference. All that matters is killing you!" Saki yelled as she pounded on Evange leaving her stunned once again.
"It's over!" Ace shouted as he launched her into the air as Harpuia dashed through her in the air, Leviathan than appeared and then impaled her back into the ground with her halberd. Fefnir picked her up by the head and sent her flying allowing Phantom to throw his Shuriken at her allowing the girls to deal the final blow. Kagura summoned missiles and fired them at Evange, Saaya ground pounded and launched spikes towards her, Aya did a spin attack with her Katana, and Saki launched sword waves at her finishing her off.
Evange's body disappeared as it left behind a cherry blossom colored soul which took the form of a samurai who had a circle hat, a cloak on his shoulders, robes, and a mask with a dog next to him.
"I am Yojimbo, pay me and my sword shall become yours." Yojimbo said before he disappeared into the orb and flew into Ace.
"Is it...over…?" Kagura asked exhausted.
"I really thought I might be done for this time." Aya said.
"Heh. Not me. I could do this all day. I just can't get enough of it!" Kagura said confidently.
"Don't be like that, Sis!" Saaya reprimanded.
"...I guess this time around, it wasn't just Saaya savin' my bacon, huh?" Kagura asked as she looked at everyone. "Thank's a lot!" She said in broken Japanese as she turned away.
"Uh, Saaya? What does that mean?" Saki asked.
"Hmm. I think it's, "Let's be together forever." Saaya guessed.
"Wh-What?! No! Saaya?!" Kagura demanded in shock as she quickly turned around.
"She really has trouble saying what's in her heart, doesn't she? Not a thing like her dear, sweet sister!" Aya said.
"No doubt about it." Ace said. "Turns out she's a real softy under that rough exterior."
"You're...totally off the mark! All I said was "Thank you"! That's it!" Kagura said trying to deny it.
"You are welcome." Aya said in broken japanese.
"Heh. This hellhole feeling colder to anyone else?" Saki asked as Saaya laughed which got everyone laughing a bit.
"Yooooooou aaaasshoooooles!" Kagura said as she waved her arms around and stomped her feet before turning away again.
A few Hours later
The group met up with Anna in person and asked if she wanted to join them as their Operator in which she complied. The group then fixed up the plane they used and enabled it to travel between worlds. It was Silver, the blades were replaced by engines, it had lasers installed, and it was capable of holding up to a 100 people and everyone had their own rooms.
"What shall we call it Ace?" Azura asked as everyone looked at the remodeled airship.
"The Spirit Celsius. Now let's go, everyone, to the next adventure." Ace said as everyone hopped aboard and set sail on their next adventure unknowingly being watched by a mysterious figure.
"We'll reunite soon little brother, until then." The mysterious figure said as he left.
