A rift in the sky appeared in New York City, tinted in rainbow colors. Viola Redfield spotted it and went to examine.
"Something's gonna get rifted away with this..." Viola questioned the rift.
Suddenly, the rift pulsed a Reality Wave, striking the whole city. Viola blocked off with her katana, Mabu-Dachi, but the Wave bursted the neo-Umbra Witch off.
"Yahhhhh!!!" Viola undergoes a magical girl transformation, matching her powers and character.
Her hair remains the exact same colors, but is more curly, though the bangs and fores is still spiked and swift. Same goes to her makeups, only more elegant.
Her clothes however completely changed, with the spiked leather jacket and the hands and cloak of her faerie form being the only major carryovers. A purple and lavender dress connected to a purple backless halterneck bodystocking, with a color-matched stained glass armored breastplate, partially detached sleeves, a stained glass long coat and a white wave skirt with a pink gradient, all with fur trimmings resembles that of her Infernal Demon, Cheshire. That bodystocking, partly covered in the back by the jacket hanged in, also cut off to mid-thigh length, with matching stained glass bands at the mid-thigh area, and matching thighs split into two sections: a leg-warmer-type coverage, and a sock tied to both that and a pair of leather boots with the exact same fur trimmings.
"Oh no, Cheshire, oh no, Lukaon, oh no!"
Finally, her eyes glows heterochromia: left glows red, while right glows blue.
The light clears out, and the magical girl form is revealed. Viola is embarrassed, trembling her sword out as such.
"I didn't ask for it..." Viola is ashamed. "A magical girl? Not really."
Rodin, the Infinite One, has turned into Minecraft avatar of himself, is chilling with a random snack besides the Umbra punk. This irritated Viola.
"Damn it, Rodin! Bayonetta takes it seriously!"
"Oh, I'm just... chilling around. Not much is going on." Rodin still snacking.
Suddenly, the rift turns purple-tinted, and spawned infested badniks flying around. Those Anti-Life robots attacked the whole city, scaring just about everyone around. Viola is pissed off, and she charged ahead to break some robos.
"Good luck, Bayonetta!" Rodin shouted.
Viola sliced those a dozen of badniks, and found that they're corrupted by the Anti-Life, and she has more than just the power of her faerie around. She's much more powerful now.
"Whoa, being a magical girl gives you powers?" Viola experiencing it. "Nice then!"
Viola continued to destroy the corrupted badniks, while Rodin just watched.
"So powerful! So beautiful!" The other onlookers saw Viola. "Go, magical girl, go!"
In the meantime...
"Place is clear. The only contamination we found is the Chrome." Ma advanced down.
"This place seems to be leading to some... place from a dream." Bond asked the wanderer through a inter-dimensional communication device.
"You mean... the dream with Shouki no Kami as a vessel?" The wanderer heard it.
"Yes, exactly!" Bond responded.
"According to the dream, this should lead us to..." Ma has arrived. "...here."
Ma and the FanficTen entered the zone, where the dream must have taken place. The machined, forged god with the extradimensional paint job and rift portals embedded as rings and drums...
"That mech... that's the one we found from some's dream!" Natasha of Fanfictasia recognized. "Shouki no Kami, outfitted with portals and rift devices!"
And in front of it, a black-dressed boy on back.
"The Balladeer!?" Those in here shook off.
"Welcome to the return of the end." Scaramouche the Balladeer welcomed. "You're going to witness the true rebirth."
"Brought to you by..." The Balladeer then turned back to show the face. "Anti-Life."
The Balladeer has red eyes with omega irises.
"Loneliness plus Alienation plus Fear plus Despair plus Self-Worth divided by Mockery divided by Condemnation divided by Misunderstanding times Guilt times Shame times Failure times Judgment, N equals Y where Y is Hope and N is Folly, Love equals Lies, Life equals Death, Self equals Dark-side." The Balladeer chanted. "Who is our god, now and forever?"
"No!" The FanficTen is stunned.
"Oh shoot!" Ma is frustrated.
"Anti-Life Is!" The Balladeer shouted. "And with the Anti-Life, the return of the true but would-be omni-ruler is nigh!"
"The Zerobreaker!" The Balladeer declared. "She whose revenge is salvation!"
"So that's the one in the dream!"
"You have re-met her in your dream." The Balladeer responded. "Now, come and inaugurate her rebirth as an infinite god."
Zerobreaker wakes up, and the chromified workshop shakes.
"Oh no! Here we go!" Maleficent of Fanfictasia noticed.
"Bow before me! And bow before Anti-Life!" Zerobreaker starts. "Let it be known that divinity is."
Zerobreaker slams one of her arms, creating a shockwave that erupts corrupted Zero Point crystals, Zero Point energy and the darkness of Nothing condensed into crystalline structures. The crystals spikes up abruptly, piercing through the Chromed floor, and one of them cut off the Batman of Fanfictasia in the hand, and another barely missed Ma.
"Well, I could activate one of those elemental matrixes here to beat you up." So Ma casted lightning into an Electro one, trying to paralyze the Zerobreaker.
...and it doesn't work at all.
"Are you serious?" Natasha of Fanfictasia facepalmed. "The matrixes doesn't work on her!"
Zerobreaker swung that arm across the arena, breaking the crystals and resulting in them bursting in rift energy, causing small explosions everywhere in the way. Ma managed to most shrug it off, while the FanficTen has to dodge.
"Ridiculous! One ridiculous anomaly!" Bond of Fanfictasia took out his gun and shot Zerobreaker.
But the bullets stopped and rifted away before they could make contact with that body. Zerobreaker then moved another of her arms and continuously sprayed corrupted lightning beams from its palm. Maleficent of Fanfictasia is caught in the beams, but Ma saves her.
"Argh!!!" Maleficent of Fanfictasia lost her legs.
All took the Anemo matrix and used the wind flow to jump out of the way. Zerobreaker immediately summoned a few vortexes to barrage the 'Ten. Ma absorbed a vortex and casted it back to Zerobreaker, but the latter has the remaining vortexes transform into chromified waterspouts, sucking the Chrome into Chrome tornados. Bond's gun got caught in one Chrome, and Ma has to slap the hand away to knock it off, saving him.
"Thanks goodness." Bond of Fanfictasia is saved. "That weird substance stills-"
"Watch out!" Ma warned everyone.
"Perish!" Zerobreaker summoned countless shards of corrupted Zero Point to rain down, find scratch-to-death injury whenever hit, forcing the FanficTen to dodge all, while Ma struggled to get any truly effective hit against the psycho god even with the godly magic and the Vessels.
Afterwards, Ma is exhausted, while the Zerobreaker forms 2 large prisms that travel towards Ma, trying to wipe out the mage, as the FanficTen are greatly injured and helpless.
"No!!!" A magical girl broke out from a rift.
She carried Ma away, and too swiftly of a dash, to the point the prisms completely misses.
"You... you saved me..." Ma noticed. "Wait... you're..."
That magical girl drops Ma down to the floor and turned to glare at the Zerobreaker.
"My name is V-I-O-L-fucking-A! Viola, the new Bayonetta!" It's Viola who saved Ma. "And now, I have been turned into a magical girl, and that's interesting news!"
"Can't say I haven't heard you before." Zerobreaker recognized Viola. "However... how the hell are you a magical girl now!?"
"For the sake of the Anti-Life and no Zero, you shall fall!" Zerobreaker goes Electrostreak, charging a massive corrupted beam to shoot at the floor and electrocuting the entire arena. (That would be followed by a more powerful shockwave of corrupted Zero Point energy across the entire space here)
Viola stabs her katana, sword down to a nearby Electro matrix and then approached the second one. She simply made triple stomp by jumping into stomping with her foot and then two slams with her arms, double-activating the Electro three times in a row all in one go. As a result, the Zerobreaker is finally paralyzed, at least for now.
"Ugh..." Zerobreaker is paralyzed. "My body... it's... ugh..."
"Excellent!" Darth Vader of Fanfictasia (without his helmet, period) is amazed.
"Good job, but she must be recovering real quick." Princess Peach of Fanfictasia responded.
"On it!" Viola leaves a matrix.
"Uh, Miss Umbra Redfield actually did some... triple earth-shock." Indiana Jones of Fanfictasia compared that action to the normal Shouki no Kami unleashed.
Viola then telekinetically took the sword through Cheshire power, only to kick that blade at the contacting, making it fly to the machined god body, damaging the Zerobreaker for now. Viola flew to the sword, and do several slashes to keep the machined damaged.
"Phew, thanks for the save." Ma recovered. "I appreciate your arrival. Also, you've become a magical girl? Beautiful!"
"Get ready, because that machine's gonna recover soon!" Viola replied. "As for you, the FanficTen... get out! You cannot fight that machine!"
"Turns out she's Zerobreaker reborn!" Ma told Viola. "I'll help you with the fighting."
"Cheshire, break that machined god down!" Viola summons Cheshire, indicated by the fur trimmings all briefly glowing.
Cheshire slammed the machine just as it recovers, before turning back into the katana. Viola takes that sword, and now stands alongside Ma in the middle of the deadly arena. The FanficTen left the forgery through the summoned rifts behind them, which also emerged a machined girl with extradimensional powers.
"Miss System, you here now?"/"システム様、あなたは今ここにいますか？" Ma noticed the machined girl, System No. XX.
"Let's rock!" System No. XX ran in, dual-wielding Aramasa and a Nu-13 Murakumo blade.
"You cannot defy me, let alone the Anti-Life!" Zerobreaker summons an array of of laser cannons to surround herself, continuously rotating and firing off many large corrupted laser beams near ground shoulder level. The threesome jumped up, avoiding the array.
Zerobreaker shoots a massive beam at the floor, electrocuting the entire arena, then unleashes a more powerful shockwave afterwards. The three stood on Cheshire right out from the katana, is safe from the attack.
Afterwards, the Zerobreaker did a random ordered onslaught between arm slam, arm combo and waterspouts, followed by either the laser array or electro-streak, sometimes the shard rains, but all three dodged all those a lot and Viola even parried the small shards for Witch Time. The fight ended up prolonged by repeated attacking and dodging, and the three heal themselves using mainly the Hydro matrix. The machined god slowly heals in the fly, so the three are forced to damage as long and much as possible, not helped by the toughness.
A hours into the fight, the Teyvat...
"I'm afraid that this world has been corrupted by the Anti-Life Equation." A scholar revealed. "I'm very sorry for your troubles and losses."
-*sigh* "Not like this world would actually be completely safe from the Anti-Life." Kazuha is disappointed.
"I found that even the godlike rulers in this world..." The scholar continued. "Not even they're free of Anti-Life anymore.
"Venti, Zhongli, miss Ei, Nahida... Focalors and Murata, even the Tsaritsa... they're all corrupted by the Anti-Life Equation."-"And we have files about their recent actions to back that up."
Kazuha remembered the dream he had in the beginning.
"In my dream, the almighty Shogun killed me in behest of my friends and associates being corrupted." Kazuha then explained the dream.
"Very well. Don't go the Inazuma, it's doomed because of the Anti-Life Equation." The scholar suggested.
"Thanks." Kazuha thanked simply. "Anyways, can I know your name?"
"Arch-Sigurd." The scholar revealed. "Scholar of the Omniverse."
"You're another Sigurd!" Kazuha realized. "We have loads of informations about your alternative selves!"
"You actually know my variants?" Arch-Sigurd is surprised.
Kazuha headed out, taking the rift to go away. Suddenly, Arch-Sigurd has a phone call from someone... suspicious.
"Hello?" Arch-Sigurd takes the call.
"Lesser Lord Kusanali commands." It's Nahida.
"You're corrupted by the Anti-Life, so answer me." Arch-Sigurd told Nahida. "You must have spread the Akasha Terminal to spread the Equation!"
"So you've just guessed what happened correctly." Nahida dismissively replied. "The Anti-Life has blessed me, and it was thus I used the Akasha and the Anti-Life to spread the blessings not only to my people, but also Ir-"
"Irminsul! You infused the Anti-Life Equation into it, and now pretty much the whole Teyvat is corrupted!" Arch-Sigurd deduced. "Explain!"
"Very well, because who is our god, now and forever?" Nahida shows off the Anti-Life consequences.
"Said that one god, that one Archon." Arch-Sigurd hangs up. *sigh* "Seems like my hypothesis is just about completely true then."
-*narrated by Arch-Sigurd* "Team Nexus, consisting of long lost Henchmen, the GHOST and SHADOWS, Rig Guards, Catty Corner Guards, Spire Guards, and quite a lot more, including the hunters Jones at least once wanted to recruit. Every Henchman that got lost after their broken team are now in Team Nexus, And it's led by the mysterious Nexus Guardian. Team Nexus made the Apollo side their new home. Threats are less likely to happen there as the Zero Point currently concentrates on keeping the Artemis side safe, instead of Apollo side, so it isnt as powerful as the other side. They have repaired the island and have since made something to stop the Cubes from threatening the dual island. It reboots the Cubes into friendly blue ones!"-"While Artemis is corrupted, Apollo is just as weird nowadays, notably the southwest part is basically bland deserts while the southeast is covered in snow. Among other things. The rest of the side are time twisted."-"And due to the Zero Shift with the Loop Breaker Project, the dual island is floating, and the atmosphere bubble disappeared, leaving only the dual island itself and the oceans surrounding it."
