Number01BlazblueFan - Yes, I'm aware of the Scott Pilgrim anime as I just recently finished watching it in one go.
And with that done, let's get this chapter on the go!
Disclaimer: I don't own any characters appearing in this fic except if it's my OCs which rarely makes an appearance.
-Somewhere in the Multiverse-
Unnamed Forest, Unnamed World
The story opens in an unnamed forest in an unnamed world located somewhere in the multiverse, we then see Saber walking around a path alongside two figures.
The first figure is a young man with a tall stature, he had a slim yet muscular build and a fair complexion, he had a short messy dirty-blonde hair and he had grey-colored eyes. He wears a dark-blue muscle t-shirt with brown straps wrapped around his chest & mid-section, he wears blue pants held by a brown belt and brown leather shoes. This is Bruce McGivern.
The second figure is a young woman with a tall stature, she had a slender frame and a fair complexion, she had a short black hair tied in a spiky bun and she had greyish-blue eyes. She wears a white qipao shirt with floral designs, she wears blue pants with a gray holster belt wrapped around her waist, she wears black shoes and a single black glove on her right hand. This is Fong Ling.
Both Bruce and Fong are victims of the bright light, they found themselves getting dumped in this forest where Saber came across them. Despite the earlier hostilities, Saber managed to earn Bruce and Fong's trust. She then proceeds to explain to Bruce and Fong about the current situation to which they acknowleged and afterwards, they all decided to travel together.
"So, you guys had undead members in your organization?" Bruce pointed out.
Saber nodded in response, "Indeed." she confirmed, "We had a lot of undead members in the AWA and despite their state, they are pretty intelligent and knows how to adapt well in society." she shared, "That said..." she trailed, "... having undead members in our ranks doesn't mean we don't have undead in the enemies' ranks." she admitted, "Things like that is pretty much inevitable." she stated.
"I see." Fong uttered in acknowledgement.
"Speaking of the undead..." Bruce recalled, "... I wonder how Hsien-Ko is doing right now?" he thought out loud.
"With how big the current problem we're having right now, I assume she found herself unwillingly getting part of it like us." Fong said out loud, "But knowing that girl, I think she'll be fine." she reassured.
Suddenly, all three of them stopped on their tracks when they heard a small roaring sounds from the distance.
"I had a hunch that something is wrong." Bruce thought out loud.
Saber frowned in response, "Those roars sounds familiar to me but I can't figure out what kind of creature it is." she admitted, "But I assume that there is one or two of them." she assumed.
"Maybe one of your comrades encountered those creatures." Fong guessed.
"You might be right about that." Saber acknowledged, "Let's go!" she beckoned.
Meanwhile in another part of the forest, we see three figures getting chased by a group of demonic-looking kangaroos.
The first figure is a young female lamia with a tall stature. Her upper body consists of a slender frame, large breasts and a fair complexion, and her lower part consists of a long snake tail with red scales and white scutes. She had a waist-length straight red hair held by a pair of D-shaped clips on each side of her head, she had a large & pointy red ears, she had amber-colored eyes with slitted snake pupils and she had small scales on her cheeks. Her upper body wears a blue long-sleeved denim jacket over a white shirt and her lower body wears a blue high-waist skirt. This is Miia.
The second figure is a young woman with an average height, she had a slender frame and a fair complexion, she had a long pink hair, she had blue-colored eyes and a pointy ears. She wear a black choker around her neck, a black chest armor with a white chest plate and black pauldron with a white cape attached to it over a black leotard, black fingerless elbow gloves and a black thigh-high boots. This is Rika Fal.
The third figure is a teeange girl with an average height, she had a slender frame and a fair complexion, she had a short messy blonde hair with two locks held by a purple hair bands and she had blue-colored eyes. She wears a blue bolero jacket over a white and blue turtlenecked dress, white thigh-highs and brown shoes. This is Sara Werec.
Both Miia and Rika are running pretty fast with the former carrying an injured Sara on her back but at the same time, they struggling to shake off their pursuers.
"They're right on us!" Rika exclaimed before turning to her companion, "Just keep on going!' she beckoned, "I'll try to keep them off you again!" she exclaimed.
Miia nodded in response, "I'll leave it to you then, nark!" she replied.
As Miia ran past a tree, Rika quickly climbs up the tree and stood on a branch, she then brandishes a handblaster and pointed it at the pursuers.
"Hey!" Rika called out, "Look over here!" she demanded, "Come at me!" she challenged.
One demonic-looking kangaroo charges forward and rammed itself hard on the tree, causing it to break in half and Rika falling off the branch.
"SHIT!" Rika cursed out loud before landing on the ground, dazed but unhurt, she quickly stood up but found herself surrounded by the creatures.
As this is going on, we see Saber, Bruce and Fong making their way towards the location from the distance.
"I see them!" Saber announced.
"Are those kangaroos?" Fong questioned in disbelief.
"Demongaroos, actually." Saber clarified.
Bruce raised an eyebrow, "Really?" he questioned in bemusement, "Is that really what you call those things?" he uttered out loud.
"Feel free to mock the person who coined that name." Saber beckoned, "Anyways..." she trailed before charging ahead, "... be careful on firing!" she advised, "Just focus on getting their attention!" she added.
Bruce and Fong responded by the pointing their guns at the creatures, "Understood." the latter replied, "Gotcha!" the former followed.
Bruce and Fong then fired their guns at the same time which hit two Demongaroos on the head while Saber got in front of another one before using her sword to decapitate it. As Saber continues to cut down the creatures, Bruce immediately entered the line of fire, grabbing Rika by the arm and then pulling her to safety.
"I'll deal with the ones chasing after the others!" Fong declared.
"Okay, go!" Saber beckoned.
As this is going on, a Demongaroo made a quick attack upon getting close to Miia and Sara, and the lamia barely dodged the creature by an inch.
"Eek!" Miia shrieked with tears in her eyes.
Fong then made her presence and began shooting the creature, "Hey!" she called out, "This way!" she beckoned.
Taking notice of Fong, Miia immediately made her way towards the agent, "W-Who are you?!" the lamia asked.
"Introductions later." Fong replied, "Get behind me!" she advised, "I got this!" she exclaimed.
The Demongaroo let's out a loud roar before charging forward, Fong continues to fire her gun before grabbing M67 grenade from her pouch, pulling out the cork and then tossing it right inside the creature's mouth and upon doing so, the head of the creature exploded in response, killing it on the process.
Fong breathed out in relief, "That was something." she uttered out loud.
Meanwhile, Bruce and Rika pointed their respective hand weapons towards the Demongaroos while shooting the creatures relentlessly, Saber had been cutting down and slicing every creatures on her paths.
Saber then looks around, "Looks like you've finished up over here." she declared with a smile, "Is everyone okay?" she asked.
"Yeah." Fong confirmed.
"We're okay over here, Saber." Bruce added.
"Thank for your assistance, Saber." Rika expressed in gratitude.
Miia then placed Sara on a rock, "I'm fine, Saber-san." the lamia reassured, "But she's-" she trailed in concern while referring to her companion.
"Is she injured?!" Saber assumed.
Everyone then proceeds to gather around Sara and took notice that her left leg is bleeding alongside a bone sticking out.
Fong flinched in response, "An open fracture." she uttered out loud.
"That looks nasty." Bruce commented.
Sara panted rather heavily, "I'm sorry about this everyone." she apologized.
"It's alright, Sara." Saber reassured, "For now..." she trailed, "... we should get you to a safe location and had your injuries treated." she stated.
"Excuse me?" a voice interrupted.
Everyone then turns around and just in time to witness Yoshika Miyafuji alongside two figures walking out from a large bush.
The first figure is a teenage boy with an average height, he had an average build and a fair complexion, he had a messy black hair and he had large-round blue-colored eyes. He wears a black high-collared school uniform jacket with yellow buttons over a white high-collared shirt, black trousers and black shoes. This is Misogi Kumagawa.
The second figure is a teenage girl with a short stature, she had slender frame and a pale complexion, she had a knee-length blue hair tied in twintails, she had ultramarine-colored eyes and she had a pair of white spiky earpiece with red zigzag lines on each side of her head. She wears a grey choker with a chain wrapped around her neck and a white cape with bulky shoulder pads, red interiors & shred-like designs hung at her back. She wears a white sleeveless short-skirted one piece dress with black linings and slit sides, she wears black thigh-high socks with white bands held by white garters, she wears a pair of white knee-length heeled boots and a pair of white evening gloves. This is Nymph.
"Miyafuji-san, Nymph-san..." Miia greeted before facefaulting, "... and Kumagawa-san." she concluded in disgust.
Misogi chuckled in response, "Oi, oi..." he uttered out loud, "... what's up with the rather disgusted greeting?" he questioned with a smile.
"You know well why she greeted you that way." Nymph replied with a blank look.
"Because I'm cute?" Misogi assumed.
"Because you're annoying!" Nymph exclaimed in annoyance.
Misogi chuckled in response, "Thank you very much!" he expressed in gratitude.
"That wasn't a compliment!" Nymph retorted.
Ignoring her current companions' argrument, the Fuso Witch took a step forward, "What happened here?" Yoshika asked.
"It's Sara." Rika pointed out, "She injured her left leg and it's an open fracture." she shared.
Yoshika nodded in response, "I see, I understood the situation." she acknowledged before rushing towards Sara and then kneeling next to her, "How are you feeling, Werec-san?" the Fuso Witch inquired.
"Not good." Sara answered, "I think I lost a lot of blood." she assumed.
"Hold on." Yoshika beckoned, "I'll get you fix soon enough." she stated.
Yoshika held her hands out in front of the fractured leg, her hands then began to glow blue alongside sporting dog ears and tail at the same time, and after a few minutes of healing, Yoshika managed to straighten her leg and closed the wound.
Yoshika smiled in satisfaction, "That should do it." she declared.
"I must say..." Bruce trailed, "... that was impressive." he commented.
"And effective." Fong added.
"How are you feeling, Sara?" Saber asked.
Sara slowly stood up and began to hop up and down, "The pain is gone!" she declared, "It's all healed up now!" she added before turning to Yoshika and doing a bow, "Thank you very much for saving me." the blonde expressed in gratitude, "Here I thought I had no choice but to amputate my leg." she admitted.
"Glad I could help." Yoshika replied with a smile, "Although the blood you lost might've not recovered, so I suggest that you get some rest and take it easy for a while." she advised.
"I agree." Saber uttered in agreement.
"So, what should we do now?" Nymph asked.
"For now..." Saber trailed, "... let's prioritize Sara getting some rest, so we're heading back to the camp grounds." she declared.
"Understood." everyone replied in agreement.
-BREAK-
Unnamed City, Unnamed World
Meanwhile in an unnamed city in an unnamed world which is located somewhere in the multiverse and the weather is currently ten degress celsius, so aside from the problem of the AWA searching for victims of the bright light and fighting off various kinds of hostile creatures, the members of the AWA also had to deal with the cold weather.
In an alley between two large apartment-like buildings, we see Tsunayoshi Sawada, Hayato Gokudera, Ichigo Momomiya and two more figures gathered around a red-colored trashcan with fire inside of it.
The first figure is a young boy with a short stature, he had a slim frame and a fair complexion, he had a short messy raven hair and he had reddish brown-colored eyes. He wears a black long-sleeved sweater vest over a white-collared shirt, red & black plaid shorts, black socks and black shoes. This is Natsume Hyuuga.
The second figure is a young woman with a tall stature, she had a slender frame and a fair complexion, she had a waist-length curly blonde hair and she had blue-colored eyes. She wears a white-collared blouse underneath blue long-sleeved military uniform jacket that consists of golden epaulettes on each shoulders, a golden accents with tribal-like designs, golden folded cuffs with tribal-like designs, an aguillete and a white four-side ribbon with a red brooch, she had a white waist scarf with golden-trimmed ends wrapped around her waist like a ribbon and a golden chained belt, she wears a white tight pants and black calf-high heeled-boots. This is Oscar Francois de Jarjeyes.
With the exception of Natsume, everyone are seen warming themselves around the flames coming out from the trashcan.
"We look like a group of homeless people." Ichigo commented with a blank look.
Hayato then jabbed a thumb at Oscar, "Does she look like a homeless to ya?" the mad bomber pointed out.
"Point taken." Ichigo acknowledged.
"Are you sure you don't want to warm yourself up, Mister Hyuuga?" Oscar asked.
"I had the ability to use fire, so I'm fine." Natsume reassured, "So, how long before those two get here?" he asked.
"They've contacted us some time ago, so they'll be here at any minute." Oscar answered, "And I do acknowledged that they're taking their time but they're escorting a group of victims of the bright light, so moving them around in a rather dangerous environment can be time consuming." she stated.
Ichigo rolled her eyes, "If what they're saying is true." she replied.
"Ichigo, I know you don't trust them..." Tsuna acknowledged, "... but at least try and get along with them in this mission." he beckoned.
"How can I do that?" Ichigo questioned with a raised eyebrow, "One of them tried to kill you before and one of them could kill you at any minute." she stated.
"Hate to say this, Tenth, but your cousin had a point." Hayato uttered out loud in agreement.
Tsuna sighed in response, "Look..." he trailed, "... both of you had a point and I acknowledged that they're a threat to us." he stated, "But both of them are making great contributions in this task, so I believe we should give them the chance." he pointed out.
Ichigo rubs the back of her head, "Your kindness shows no bounds, cuz." she uttered out loud, "And it's kinda hurtful." she added.
"I don't think Mister Sawada's kindness is that bad." Oscar commented.
Natsume looks around the area before taking notice of something coming from the distance, "Looks like they're here." he announced.
Everyone then turns around to see two figures leading four more figures towards their direction.
The first leading figure is a young man with a tall stature, he had a lean yet muscular frame and a pale complexion, he had a short black hair, a short beard, mustache and sideburns that point upwards, and he had yellow-colored hawk-like eyes. He wears a high-collared maroon-colored cape over an open white shirt with a ruffled neck and a golden-colored cross-shaped necklace, he wears black pants held by a golden-colored belt and wears black boots. He wears a wide-brimmed black hat decorated with a large green plume and carries a large cross-like sword on his back. This is Mihawk Dracule.
The second leading figure is a young man with a tall stature, he had a lean yet muscular frame and a pale complexion, he had a short blue pineapple-shaped hair, his left eye is blue and his right eye is red with the kanji for six in the middle. He wears a black leather uniform jacket over a gray t-shirt with a misty design, he wears black pants, black leather shoes and a pair of black gloves. This is Mukuro Rokudou.
Mihawk tips his hat, "We're here." he announced.
Mukuro chuckled rather mischievously, "Greetings, Tenth." he greeted with a sly smile.
"Greetings, Dracule-san, Rokudou-san." Tsuna greeted back, "How was everything on your way here?" he inquired.
"And make sure what you report to us are truthful!" Ichigo added.
"Ichigo?!" Tsuna admonished.
Mukuro chuckled mischievously once more, "Still unable to trust me nor Hawkeye, huh?" he mused, "Your cousin is quite something, Tenth." he commented in amusement, "In fact..." he trailed, "... I expected something like that to come out from your right hand man." he admitted.
"Oi!" Hayato roared in annoyance before calming down, "Thought you had a point." he acknowledged.
"Anyways..." Mihawk interrupted, "... our apologies for taking our time to meet you here." he apologized, "Protecting our escorts while figthing off hostiles creatures took much of our time and while Mukuro and I are more than able to take them all out, the sheer number of the creatures coming after us is pretty abnormal." he explained.
Tsuna thought out about it, "I see." he acknowledged in concern.
"So, where are your escorts?" Natsume asked.
Mihawk then gestured a hand towards the four figures with them, "Here they are." he presented.
The four figures then steps forward and everyone got a good look on them.
The first figure is a teenage girl with an average height, she had a slender frame and a fair complexion, she had a waist-length lapis-lazuli hair, she had lapis lazuli-colored eyes and she had pointy ears. She wears a circlet with a red diamond gem around her forehead and golden-colored earing on each of her ears, she wears a high-collared black & grey bodysuit with puffy shoulders, red linings and white patches, she wears a pair of red bracelets and a bulky red belt wrapped around her midsection, and she wears a pair of black boots. This is Lafiel Abriel.

This is Rio Kinezono.
"Greetings." Lafiel greeted, "My name is Lafiel Abriel and I'm the Imperial Princess of the Empire of Abh." she introduced herself.
"H-Hi..." Masane greeted rather meekly, "I'm Masane Amaha, it's nice to meet you." she introduced herself.
Maya responded with a salute, "My name is Maya Jingu and I'm a member of Team Warrior." she introduced herself.
Rio saluted as well, "My name is Rio Kinezono and I'm also a member of Team Warrior." she introduced herself.
Tsuna nodded in response, "Please to meet you all." he greeted with a smile.
"All four of them are actually purchased slaves from the Slave Fortress but only got away from their captors when the bright light caught onto them and dropped them here." Mihawk explained.
"And when we first met them, they still had their slave collars on their necks, so we proceeded to take them off using the wind-up key." Mukuro added, "And since the collar was just recently taken off, they still feel weak from it's effects." he pointed out.
Lafiel rubs her neck, "I can't believe that a key that we see at the back of toys is able to get those collars off our necks." she grumbled in disbelief.
"I'm surprised too but I'm just glad that we got those things off." Masane admitted in gratitude.
"Still..." Maya trailed, "... I was really looking forward on getting back at the bastards from the Slave Fortress once we got those things off our necks but when Mister Dracule mentioned that the Slave Fortress had fallen, I'm really disappointed and frustrated!" she shared.
"Guess the only left to get back on are the bastards who purchased us." Rio pointed out.
"Glad that you're out of those predicaments." Tsuna expressed towards the four before turning to Mihawk and Mukuro, "And thank you very much for looking after them." the mafia boss added, "You all did a good job." he complimented.
Mihawk tips his hat, "Hmph." he scoffed in response.
"Kuh-kuh-kuh!" Mukuro chuckled in response, "Complimenting us with such gratitude ain't gonna win us over, Tenth." he mused.
"Just be grateful that my cousin complimented your contributions!" Ichigo exclaimed in annoyance.
"Chill, chill, Tenth's cousin, chill." Mukuro advised rather teasingly.
"Stop teasing me!" Ichigo demanded.
"Seriously, ya need to chill, Ichigo." Hayato beckoned with a blank look.
"So, what should we do for now?" Natsume inquired.
"Since Miss Abriel and the others are still weak from the effects of the collar, I suggest that we take them back to the campsite, so they can get some rest." Oscar suggested.
Tsuna nodded in response, "And let's do just that." he accepted.
"Hi-diddly-ho, neighborino!" a voice greeted.
Everyone then turns around to see a figure making their way towards them while pushing a grey-colored utility carts with various warms beverages on it.
The figure is a sexagenarian man with a tall stature, he had a well-built frame and a yellow complexion, he had a short brown hair and mustache, and wears white round glasses behind his white round eyes with black dots. He wears a green long-sleeved sweater over a pink shirt with a white collar, gray pants and black leather shoes. This is Ned Flanders.
"Mister Flanders?!" Tsuna squawked in surprise, "What are you doing here?" he asked.
"Oh, I'm just moving around the streets and figured I hand everyone my home made warm drinks since it's pretty cold and all." Ned explained.
"Are you sure it's alright for you to walk around in these streets?" Ichigo asked in concern.
Ned chuckled in response, "Oh, don't worry." he reassured, "I still had that spirit-thingie that fights on my behalf." he shared.
"Stand." Hayato corrected, "You mean your Stand." he furthered.
Ned thought about it, "Huh, I forgot." he said out loud, "Guess I am getting old." he admitted, "Anyways..." he trailed, "... would you like to try some of the drinks I prepared?" he offered, "I recommend my cocoa." he suggested.
Tsuna chuckled in response, "Well then..." he trailed, "... I say we take his offer before we head back to the campsite." he beckoned.
"Yeah." everyone uttered in agreement.
Ned smiled in joy, "Please do enjoy." he beckoned.

"I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I'm sorry!"
"Geez, Haruka! Just because you got embarrassed doesn't mean you get to attack others and claim it as a hallucination made by faeries."
After Haruka Takayama realized that Hiro Shirosaki, Momo Shirosaki, Sachi Nagamiya, Touko Fukami, Yanagi Takayama and Yukinari Imi witnessed her taking out the Amalgapuppet, Haruka found herself blinded by embarrassment and nearly attacked them under the delusion that faeries are playing tricks on her but fortunately for everyone, Yuu Sonoda transforms back into her human form and managed to snap Haruka out of it and now the redhead is apologizing frantically while bowing her head numerous times.
"I'm really sorry!" Haruka cried out apologetically, "I was just so embarrased!" she reasoned.
Yanagi sighed in response, "It's okay, Haruka." she reassured, "Just avoid yourself from attacking others whenever you're embarrassed." she advised.
"Hey, guys!" a voice called out.
Everyone turns around to see Tatsumi and Mine walking towards them, and Touko's group immediately recognized them.
"Eh, Tatsumi-san, Mine-san?!" Touko squawked in surprise.
"Now these are some faces we haven't seen for a while." Tatsumi commented with a grin.
