New York City: United States
Mori Calliope & Takanashi Kiara
….
Calliope and Kiara are shrieking like hyenas as they are laughing to death on what left of the New York Park burned field.
" Reaper and Phoenix rules. F**k nature!" Calliope shouting at the sky and laughs uncontrollably again.
" I mean, I kinda get it, but actually. I am not getting it." Watson said tiredly as she sits on the ground.
" Guys, I knows that you are happy. But our jobs are not done yet." Ina said as squadron of F-35 jets flying pass their head.
Kiara quickly gets up. " I forgot about Nidhogg! How's Gura doing?"
….
Gawr Gura
Giant monster roars and go on rampaging as Gura is still following him. A tomahawk missiles from the nearest Military base hit the beast and tears its flesh,
releasing a foul smell liquid and rotten things that contain inside the monster.
But the attack merely slow Nidhogg down as he is moving toward New York Bay.
" It is going to the bay! We have to stop it before it can gets more water!" Subaru shouting at communication device as she is flying in her duck power suit
that has been refueled again.
" What's next?" Gura shouts a question as F-35 start hitting the beast with their missiles.
" Trying to lure them back in the city!" Subaru charges her plasma cannon and aim at the monster eyes.
Gura start climbing on the beast tentacles with both hands and legs.
Shark girl then jumps very high until she is reaching the beast main body.
A monster swinging its tentacles in rage, but a bullets from artillery guns cut the twitching thing down as Gura is stabbing her trident on the beast chest.
Gura hair and eyes glowing as she controls water inside the beast to pour out, as if someone has put a hole on the filled water bag.
" Man! It's stinks!" Gura yelled as foul smells water pouring from the animal wound.
" We need more holes!" Subaru shouts as she starts shooting her plasma gun at the beast enormous head.
" Got it!" Calli shouts from where she is riding the Phoenix's back and creates a slashing wave that cut the beast chest, rotten liquid poured out while Nidhogg
is screaming in rage.
Kiara also shooting fireball from her mouth, burning the beast skin as she is flying pass it.
" That is Kiara! Keep going! " Calliope yelled. But then the beast swings its tentacles at them from four directions.
" Oh Sh*t!" Calli swears, but the time suddenly stopped as Ina'nis with Watson riding on her tentacles flying in front of them.
Priestess close her eyes and let the shining Halo fly on top of her head.
When she opens it again. Four tentacles hitting each other instead of Calli and Kiara.
" Careful! I couldn't save you every time." Ina shouts.
" Sorry." Calli said as she is jumping from Phoenix's back and start running on one of the Nidhogg's tentacles.
She glances and smiles when seeing that Gura is also running on the different tentacles, both are attacking the beast's body at the same time.
Kiara start spamming her fireballs at the monster as Ina and Subaru start shooting their cannons at the beast's head.
" What is my role again?" Amelia yelled from one of Ina tentacles.
" Stopped time, and warn us if anything weird happens." Ina said as eight of her tentacles start spinning like wheel while each one shooting a laser beam out,
cutting through the beast's stomach like a buzzsaw.
On top of them, a bomber jets drop their bombs on the beast shoulder, blowing parts of its body.
Gura and Calliope jumps on the newly created wound, Gura stabbing her trident while Calli running downward as she sinks her scythe blade on Nidhogg's
body, creating a bigger wound with earth gravity as Gura is pumping water out of the injured monster.
Nidhogg eye glow and it's neck seem to fills with something, before the beast will opens its mouth and vomiting a green slime that have enough to covering
the whole city.
Its radius is impossible to dodge even with everybody speed.
" Sh*t!" Ame stopped time before the green slime will falling on their head and look around, everyone is busy fighting or disappeared from her sight,
which is mean… " Bloody me again?"
Ame trying to remember how she can run back in time during the fight with Hachama. Probably by just running and not afraid.
" 3.2.1." Ame steel herself and then jumping from Ina tentacles to the certain death from the falling through this height.
" I am not afraid! I am not afraid! I am not f**king afraid!" Ame yelled as she is looking at her pocket watch. It just stops ticking, not running backward.
Is that mean she made a mistake?
Ame closes her eyes as the ground suddenly close to her face. Waiting for the impact that is yet to come.
After a long wait Ame open her eyes and realized that she is floating for like 1 inch from the ground. She looks at her pocket watch again and it is ticking
backwards.
Ame starts floating back, or more likely, her falling is going backward as the time starts moving back too. In a few seconds.
Ame is climbing on one of Ina tentacles again as the green slimy thing running back in the Nidhogg mouth.
…
When the world start moving normally again, Watson quickly slapping Ina shoulder. " Ina! That thing is gonna vomit something from its mouth!" She yelled.
Priestess close her eyes and the beast's mouth suddenly snapped shut against its wills.
Calli and Gura then jumping at the Nidhogg swells neck and attacking it, burst the beast neck open and covering the monster with its own acid,
which is quickly melting its skin and part of the city that has been cover by the green liquid.
" Thanks! Ame! If this liquid successfully shoots out of its mouth. We probably face much more damaged than this!" Subaru said cheerfully.
Amelia chuckled. " I knows."
Nidhogg start staggering and roar in rage as Kiara in human form jumping toward its mouth.
" They says that the best way to cook is from the inside!" Kiara shout as she is falling in the animal throat.
" There she goes again." Calli smiles as she is using her shadow travel, teleporting under one of the fighter jets' wing as they are flying above the Nidhogg's
head.
Kiara turning in her Phoenix form inside the beast throat and shooting her fire, burning it from the inside.
Calliope dropping from the sky and raise her scythe, creating a biggest slashing wave every reaper ever made as she swings it. Cutting Nidhogg's stomach
open in one swing.
Gura spinning trident to creates a sixth ocean wave, reflect everything back to the beast as its intestine and acidic fluid start showering from its body.
Ina close her eyes and picturing a splatters acid to start reducing and gone as Watson making her movements being quicker, by touching Ina during the time
stopped.
Subaru calling for jet squadron to shooting their missiles and destroying the root around its body, cutting Nidhogg from the water supplies.
Dying Nidhogg crying in agony as it is crawling toward the sea that is not far away.
A giant monster roar for the last time, before its head will explodes as Kiara in Phoenix form flying out of its body.
Nidhogg body twitching for a few minutes and then stopped, its tentacles withered and start falling apart as the beast's carcass become smaller and smaller.
" Today's Steamed Nidhogg. Is well done." Kiara said as she is turning back to human form and stand beside Ame, Gura, Ina, Calliope and Subaru.
"So, we just save the days again?" Watson asks.
" Look like it is." Subaru said as helicopters start flying toward the city.
" Who wants early dinner? I will pay." She said, looking at her watch.
Calli shrugged. " As long as it isn't steamed vegetables."
" I can give everyone a newly roast chickens. If you can go to my usual room." Kiara suggested.
"Let get out of here first. You guys knows that I don 't like camera." Ina insists when she saw reporter in some helicopters.
" Well, if you says so." Gura shrugged as they start moving to the quieter corner of the city.
A sudden screaming got their attention as the blue hair girl in big jacket suddenly ride a zebra pass them. A fierce animal in black and white fur running after
her with incredible speed.
The girl falling on the horse as the animal rush in, then Ame remembered the beast.
" Hey! That is my friend." She then stops time and standing in front of the girl, using T post to assert a dominance.
" This is not food. Okay? I will give you something if you are a good boy, okay?" Ame trying to calm the angry honey badger down.
" Pfff! Did she just talking to an animal?" Gura chuckled, but as she turns her head to talk with others, her eyes glances a picture of that badger rising his
middle finger at her.
" Am I seeing thing?" Gura asks nervously.
" What?" Ina questioned. " Everything is normal here." Calli, Kiara and Subaru nodded.
" It's… whatever. Forget about it."
The blue hair girl gets up and then start chanting something.
The cloud suddenly gathered around them as the rain start dropping.
" What the hell?" Ame yelled.
" This girl has magical powers!" Calli said after scanning her with Reaper's eyes.
" Again?" Gura picks her trident up as Ina is summoning her tentacles again.
" You stole my horse!" The girl shouting at honey badger who snarled back, don't give a sh*t as ever.
" In the name of Kanaeru family I shall curse you with…" the girl suddenly collapsed.
" I am hungry…" she moan.
" Is she a magician? " Subaru asks, but Kiara shook her head.
" No, but probably some race with reality wrapping abilities. Universe is big after all. I guess we have to check on her later."
When they get close enough to the collapsed girl, they see that on her jacket has the name "Kobo" on it.
" Is that her names? I thinks I heard that before."Ame asks.
" Maybe in one of my old documents. We will ask her later." Subaru said as Calli and Kiara carries the girl to the Subaru's white van that stands nearby.
" Mom. Dad." Kobo takes Kiara and Calliope's hand as they drop her on the long seat.
" So, she is you two…?" Ame gestures with her hands at Kiara and Calli.
" No way in hell. She probably hallucinates or something." Calliope said flatly as she sits on her seat, Kiara gently brush unconscious girl hair to see her face
clearly.
" And what about that?" Gura points at honey badger who still looking at them from the outside.
"Well, it's probably come from Fauna summoning." Subaru said. Ame looks at her with a puppy eyes.
"… So, it is not safe to keep them around." Ame looks at Subaru with puppy eyes again.
" Beside, Akukin has a rules so no pets is allows…" Subaru lost her track, Ame still looks at her with puppy eyes.
"…But cover Corp has no rules yet. So, just feed them on time and clean after it okay?" Subaru quickly speaks after the pressure of Ame eyes.
Ina stroking badger cheek as she convinces it to get in the car with her tentacles.
As the van starts moving, there goes a ritual to check the newcomer. Kiara lay her 'cover' crystal on Kobo's body and, no one surprised that it is shining,
acknowledges her as one of the star people descendants.
The road is rough and crystal falling the girl seat as it is falling at honey badger who grab it in his claws and give it back to Kiara.
" Uh... thanks?" Kiara going to take it, until she realized that the crystal is shining on the animal hands, declare that he is one of star people descendants.
" # &%&!" Kiara failed her word as she is pointing at the animal.
Everyone eyes follows her hand and then the word
" What the f**k!" That probably loud enough to make Tokino Sora in different galaxies turn her head back to look at the cause of the noise occurring from the
white van.
Honey badger smiles mysteriously as everyone is shouting and talking with each other, while Kobo is calling for her dad again.

Council Meeting Room: Somewhere in This Universe
Ceres Fauna
Lilith flower plants stand silently on the wet rock near the small waterfalls.
It's showing its flower for the bug to see, growing a seed, fall down and dies. As like everything else.
As the seed fall down and start growing again, continuing its never-ending cycles. Ceres Fauna emerge from the shadow behind waterfalls and plants a new
seed.
As long as life goes on. she will continue to exist, as well as Mumei's civilizations.
A soft knocking on the door tells Fauna that Kronii is coming in, she is the only one who care to knock first.
" Hi." Kronii said.
"Hey." Fauna replied.
Outside the room, they heard the crashing sound of Mumei throwing her stuff at the wall again.
" She's still angry." Kronii explained.
Fauna giggles. " Getting outsmart by so-called underdeveloped civilization. I can understand her rage though."
" I mean… She is also close with you so…" Kronii suddenly silent.
" Want to cheer her up?" Fauna smiles, despite powerful abilities. Kronii are as easily to read as a sparrow.
She picks up a small Lilith flower that just grows up and give it to Kronii.
Sometime, life is just gone as easily as how they could continue. Because nothing in this universe is certainly.
" Give this to her." Fauna whispered. Kronii face brighten up.
" It will give her a good mood?" She asks.
Fauna smiles instead of answering.
Before Kronii could get out of her room, Fauna asks her.
" I saw one human who can use your power. Even though I couldn't remember…" She stopped when seeing Kronii face.
" You couldn't remember her? It is a good thing. I hope I can be as lucky as you." Kronii laugh as she walks out of Fauna room and close the door, leaving her
alone again.
Fauna dress properly for the next meeting and walking out of her room. Seeing that Kronii is slowly approaching Mumei as Tsukumo Sana and Hakoz Baelz
are playing their board game.
Bae is new embodiment of chaos after Hachama has been fired.
Kronii promoted her so she must be really good at her job, but Fauna never knows her and it hard to look at the new without comparing her with an old
member.
Kronii finally brave enough to talk with Mumei who still sat angrily at the corner of the room.
" Mumei…" Kronii said gingerly.
" What!" Mumei raise her voice, she looks stiffen.
"…flower." Kronii hand over a beautiful Lilith.
Mumei take it and then open her pocket, it is fills with Obsidian spearhead, Musket ball, Nuclear warhead (Every civilized person keep a nuke or two in their
bag, in case that they have to face a monster.) and the rest is berries and berries and berries.
" My inventory are full." Mumei said and throwing a flower, aiming precisely at Kronii eyes.
Fauna walking pass them as Kronii is gwaking and suffering on the floor. As she always said, nothing in this universe is certain.
Baelz throwing a dice and shout excitedly as it falls on the board.
" The solar system is gone! End of Earth civilizations."
Kronii who still clutching her face snapped her finger, and the dice is running back to Bae's hand.
" Hey! You cheat!" Rat girl yelled.
Sana smiles gently. " You knows the rules Baelz. No forcing with council position. You must let it end by natural course."
Bae stroking her chin as she thought.
" Then how about this?" She throws her dice again, it is falling on the panel with word "そら" written on it.
Sana frowned. " Star people are hard to control. You know that well."
Baelz shrugged. " What did they says again? High risks. High rewards."
" Even time traveling couldn't save them now." Kronii looks at the board.
" Only thing that left for them is hope." Sana said.
" She will awake if good and evil is at balances." Fauna watch uncomfortably as they were playing dice again.
" But everybody knows." Baelz continues.
"That evil is always win." Mumei get up, finally smiling.
" I will not be so sure, though." Fauna glances at the painting on the wall.
Bae get up and look at it too. It is a picture of war between good and evil. Angels and Demons.
While every hundred millions of them are fighting to death at the corner of picture. There are two person who holding each other's hands.
Angel Amane Kanata and Demon Tokoyami Towa.
" Uncertainty is certainly and certainly is uncertainty." Baelz whispered.
" Right, Irys?" She said to a girl who is standing next to her but also isn't at the same time.
