I wanted to get my hands on the reaction fanfics!

Execution is the problem though... Cast setting takes place after War Games with Apollo Familia.

The Theater Beyond Worlds

"How did we end up here? What's going on?" Hestia exclaimed, her eyes wide with confusion and glanced around the room.

Her Familia, equally bewildered, exchanged perplexed glances but had no answers to offer. In the blink of an eye, the members of the various Familia and the employees of the Hostess of Fertility found themselves transported to a strange, lavishly decorated theater room.

"What in the…? How did I get here?" Loki, from her own familia, voiced the same bewilderment and annoyance. She too was surrounded by her familia members, who wore equally baffled expressions.

Hestia and Loki's voices of confusion caught each other's attention, and they pointed fingers at one another.

"Why are you here, Loki?" Hestia questioned with a furrowed brow.

"Why am I here? Shouldn't you be more concerned with how you got here, short, and round like a dumpling?"

Hestia's eyes flashed with irritation as she retorted, "Well, I'd rather be a dumpling than flat as a board!"

"What did you just say?!"

"You heard me!"

"H-Hestia! Let's not..." Bell stepped forward, urgently tugging at his Goddess's arms, attempting to halt her relentless advance toward Loki.

"Loki! There are more pressing matters at hand than your quarrels!" Riveria scowled as she clamped her grip onto Loki's shoulder. However, the Goddess remained unwavering, her determination fixed on confronting Hestia over her remarks.

"Yes, let's not fight amongst ourselves while we..." Takemikazuchi attempted to intervene, but both Goddesses shot him a withering glare that even the God of War found difficult to withstand.

"Even if the gods restrained their powers, they're still incredibly formidable," Ouka remarked, observing how his God had no choice but to yield.

"Y-yes," Chigusa nodded in unison, her voice trembling slightly as she edged behind Ouka for reassurance.

Their verbal duel reverberated through the room, a verbal spat that Bell and Riveria could do little to quell. Meanwhile, Hephaestus, the Goddess of Smithing, remained deeply engrossed in her surroundings.

"This place..."

"Hephaestus?" Welf, her former Familia member, approached her with an inquisitive look.

"These materials... I don't think we're in the Lower Realm," Hephaestus observed, her eye scanning the theater's decor and unique construction.

Her gaze then fixed upon the massive movie screen at the front. While it might have appeared ordinary at first glance, Hephaestus, with her divine craftsmanship knowledge, sensed that it was far from ordinary.

"Come now, you two. I understand that..." Miach, her fellow colleague from the Miach Familia, attempted to interject and mediate the squabbling Goddesses, but his words were drowned out by the ongoing commotion.

"Will we be all right?" Haruhime inquired.

"We... should be fine, I think," Mikoto responded with a hint of uncertainty.

"Enough of this nonsense!" Mia Grand, the indomitable proprietor of the Hostess of Fertility, marched over to the two feuding Goddesses with an air of authority. With a swift, resounding smack on the head for each of them, she sent a clear message and making them yelp.

"GAH!"

"Mama Mia certainly has a way of treating everyone equally," Syr mused, her laughter bubbling at the scene. "Don't you think, Ryuu?"

Ryuu nodded as she recalled her initial meeting with the Dwarf. "Very much so."

"We've all been thrust into an inexplicable situation. Stop yapping and start organizing your Familia. We need to figure out where we are and how to get back!" Mia's stern tone silenced the squabbling Goddesses and captivated the attention of everyone in the room, serving as a stark reminder that they were all in this predicament together.

"I have a strong feeling we're no longer in the Lower Realm, or even Heaven. You can sense it in the air." Hephaestus voiced her observations.

Loki, initially skeptical, extended her hands outward, as if to test the very essence of their surroundings. Her divine aura shimmered and flickered around her, and then her expression shifted to one of startling realization.

"You're kidding me," she muttered, her voice tinged with disbelief.

"Anything you can tell us?" Finn asked, directing his question to Loki.

"Other than the fact that this shouldn't be possible?" She cupped her chin with one hand and rested the other on her hip. "Unless... some deity in the heavenly realms decided to employ their divine power and relocate us. But believe me, if that were the case, not only would everyone has felt it, but that meddling god would be in for a very harsh punishment."

"There are rules and safeguards in place for situations like that," Miach interjected, his knowledge of divine matters adding weight to the discussion.

"Maybe it's a new method or a cleverly exploited loophole," Takemikazuchi suggested, his eyes scanning the room.

"That doesn't exactly explain this place. It's an entirely different realm, unlike anything we've ever encountered in the Lower Realm or Heaven." Hephaestus gestured toward the room.

"Welcome, divine and mortals." A voice, resonant with an amalgamation of accents, tones, and languages, suddenly reverberated through the room.

Startled, everyone turned towards the source of the enigmatic voice, only to find that it appeared to originate from above. However, upon inspection, they realized there was nothing there but a ceiling adorned with countless twinkling lights.

"Who said that?" Naaza inquired aloud, her protective stance bringing her closer to Miach's side.

"Hey! Show yourself!" Bete's voice pierced the air, laden with a growling ferocity.

"I am the Scribe from the Beyond, and I am as I am," the voice introduced itself, its myriad voices harmonizing with unnatural clarity. "Welcome to my domain. I trust you will find your stay here most enlightening, as you prepare to gaze beyond your reality. Accommodations tailored to your desires will be readily provided. So, with eager hearts, let your questions flow."

Finn had barely begun to voice his question when Loki, radiating divine intensity, interjected. "What are you?" she demanded, her eyes burning with inquisitiveness. "You're not one of our children, and you're certainly not divine. You'd better have a compelling explanation because this place doesn't adhere to the same rules as Heaven or the Lower Realm, and I won't hesitate to assert my authority here."

The members of the Loki Familia collectively took a wary step back, visibly unsettled by the unprecedented hostility radiating from their Goddess. Even the most audacious and unyielding among them couldn't help but cower beneath the wrath of a divine being. In this moment, they were acutely reminded that, despite Loki's often playful demeanor, a Goddess remained a formidable and awe-inspiring presence.

"I am the Scribe from the Beyond," the voice reiterated, its tone carrying a hint of amusement in response to Loki's veiled threat. "My purpose has been stated. You all have been brought here to witness events that extend far beyond your realm."

"In that case, may I ask why?" Miach inquired, his voice composed as he attempted to unravel the situation. "Is there a pressing matter that necessitates this... unorthodox approach?"

"I cannot fully divulge that information," the Scribe from the Beyond responded, "but if I were to express it in simpler terms, it is primarily for my own amusement, as well as the amusement of others.

"... What?" Lili deadpanned, disbelief lacing her voice.

"Are you serious?!" Bete snarled, incredulous at the response.

Similar sentiments were echoed among the mortals, though the divine beings had fallen silent, still taken aback by the unexpected answer.

"Is this any different from a god toying with mortals?" The Scribe from the Beyond stated matter-of-factly.

"This... scribe, or whatever you are, has a point," Hestia admitted with reluctant recognition.

In her divine experience, she knew that her kind had often toyed with mortals and each other in numerous ways. What was transpiring here was, in fact, relatively mild compared to the schemes and intrigues the gods unleashed upon one another back in Heaven.

"Precisely. Considering that the gods are eternally afflicted by boredom, why not indulge in a glimpse of the realms beyond your usual boundaries? It will undoubtedly provide a remarkable experience for both you and your children. While you reside within my domain, you needn't fear any harm or discomfort. Certain biological functions are rendered obsolete without detriment. Time here flows differently, if at all. Additionally, all your lesser needs are now lesser wants! Food and drinks will be readily provided. What is there to do but relax and savor the experience? In the end, I will release you back to your world."

"What do you mean by that?" Tiona asked.

"It essentially means that here, in my domain, the need for sustenance, rest, or the passage of time is entirely absent. You won't hunger, thirst, or tire, and you won't age a day. When you eventually return to your world, you'll be just as you are now, as if nothing occurred. And should you desire anything, simply think of it or request it."

"So, if I wanted some divine wine, an excellent blend that doesn't get me completely wasted, you'd just conjure it up for me?" Loki's voice trailed off as a bottle of divine wine materialized before her, prompting her to pause. "... Well, in that case, I suppose I can forgive you."

Bete spun around to face Loki; his disbelief etched on his face. "You can't be serious, Loki!"

Mia couldn't help but facepalm in exasperation. "Divine nonsense and a willingness to accept the absurd. That's the gods for you, isn't it?"

Loki adopted a nonchalant shrug. "This place feels as secure as an unbreakable luxury vessel. Even if we somehow manage to escape, it's likely we'd only find ourselves adrift in an endless void. We lack the knowledge to navigate back to our own realm."

"Are we really going to play along with this?" Tione interjected.

"Doesn't look like we have much of a choice right now," Hestia interjected, her brows furrowed, arms crossed as she surveyed their unfamiliar surroundings. "We're trapped in an entirely different domain, subject to its own laws. Even if we attempt to wield our Arcanum here, our chances of emerging victorious seem slim at best."

"Um... I'm not sure what's happening." Ais' usual calm demeanor faltering slightly as confusion colored her expression.

"S-same…" Lefiya concurred.

"I suppose we're in this predicament for the foreseeable future," Hephaestus sighed, frustration etched on her face as she absentmindedly scratched her head.

"At least we're generously accommodated," Miach remarked, alluding to the Scribe from the Beyond's assertion about the domain they now found themselves in.

"And you all just gonna quit like that?" Gareth mumbled, giving his beard a casual stroke, his demeanor unwavering.

"Hey, the Scribe did mention we'd be released at some point," Loki remarked, a quarter of the divine wine bottle already empty. She leaned back with a mischievous grin. "Besides, my intuition tells me we're in for some excitement! How about you, Finn?"

Finn considered for a moment, glancing at his thumb as if it held the answers. With a resigned sigh, he admitted, "Well, my thumb isn't acting up... I suppose we don't have much of a choice."

"Lili can't believe she's been 'godnapped,' and everyone is just going along with it," Lili groaned, leaning against Bell with her entire petite frame. "Whatever! Lili won't bother trying to understand! Gods think in their own mysterious ways!"

"Please, make yourselves comfortable. There's something here for everyone. Countless worlds, an array of timelines spanning across past, future, and alternate realities, each bearing its own unique story. Perhaps we can begin with a tale that is sure to capture the interest of both divine and mortal beings. Have any of you heard of the Legend of Zelda? It's a captivating narrative that follows the journey of a hero..."

"I want to see it!" Tiona exclaimed as she repeated the words with her hand outstretched in anticipation.

"Um, me too," Bell added, his hand raised in quiet enthusiasm.

"Then it is settled."

On cue, a seamless transition swept through the group, effortlessly relocating them to the plush rows of chairs within the enigmatic theater. Neatly organized, they found themselves arranged in specific clusters, all facing the colossal screen before them.

The members of the Hestia Familia, including Hestia herself, along with Hephaestus, Bell Cranel, Liliruca Arde, Welf Crozzo, Yamato Mikoto, and Sanjouno Haruhime, settled comfortably in one cluster.

Adjacent to them, the formidable assembly of the Loki Familia, comprising Loki, Finn Deimne, Riveria Ljos Alf, Gareth Landrock, Ais Wallenstein, Tione Hiryute, Tiona Hiryute, Lefiya Viridis, and Bete Loga, were assigned their designated seats.

The Miach Familia, led by Miach himself, and accompanied by Naaza Erisuis, occupied a nearby section.

Across from the Hestia Familia, the Takemikazuchi Familia, featuring the figure of Takemikazuchi, alongside Kashima Ouka and Hitachi Chigusa, settled in.

Lastly, the Hostess of Fertility team, consisting of the ever-commanding Mia Grand, along with Syr Flova and Ryuu Lion, found themselves situated in close proximity to the Hestia Familia.

"How did you..." Welf began to ask, but the Scribe cut him off.

"Let's get started," the Scribe from Beyond announced.

The lights dimmed, and the tale of the Legend of Zelda began to unfold before their eyes.
