Opening File: Edzilla
Edzilla was the monstrous form Ed turned into by combining his Semblance and the power of the Slime Elemental. He believed he had literally turned into a monster and acted like one as he rampaged through the Special Zone. He attacked the tower of the White Division to rescue his associate from Peach Creek and even fought a three head demon monster made from the fusions of the three Sirens. He was able to grow in size, overshadowing the towers in the center of the Special Zone and smashed through the ceiling, showing immense strength.
He was able to use his strength and his immense size as his main weapon against the demon Sirens. His fighting style seemed to using his mouth like hands and his teeth for close combat along with his massive strength. Considering the vast strength shown in just one fight it is clear this form of the current Slime Elemental is perhaps so dangerous that no one aside the strongest on any world has any hope of challenging it and living to tell the tale.

Opening File: Rejuvenator
A Gem Rejuvenator was once used by the Gem Homeworld to reset Gems that were seen to have defected. The Rejuvenator works similarly to a Gem Destabilizer as any Gems struck will be immediately poofed. However, upon reforming the Gems will not remember anything other than their original purposes. The affected Gems will also revert to their very first outfits when they were created.
Much like the Destabilizer, it proves ineffective against non-Gems with no visible damage. Since the Gems were able to restore their memories from moments or events related to what influenced them most the Rejuvenator was discontinued in favor of other weapons and technology such as the Destabilizer and Shattering Robonoids. Despite the discontinuation of the Gem version it was continued to be used in Special Zone as Blue Diamond preferred it over actually executing any organics that displayed questionable behavior. The organic version of the Rejuvenator is more complex than the Gem version, working in a manner similar to the machines used for interrogation and memory retrieval.
It works by isolating and measuring the electronic impulses in the organic brains, specifically the ones for memory and then erases the selected memories. The machine can also to implant suggestions while the target is left in a trance once the Rejuvenator is activated. It has not been used for centuries until very recently.

"So the new girl actually plotted behind our leader's back? She's got courage, I'll give her that."
"Too bad she might not have that once she's put through the Rejuvenator. No one's had to use this old thing for centuries."
The person in question was none other than Nazz, placed inside a cylinder shaped machine resembling the pod that Yellow Division members sleep in but this one was different.
"The Rejuvenator is up and running." The Yellow Division technician reported.
The guard who had been charged with bringing Nazz back to the Division nodded. "All right. Let's begin."
The technician nodded and started working the controls. The Rejuvenator started to hum to life with lines glowing along the cylinder. Inside, floating fingers emerged from hidden compartments and opened Nazz's eyes, keeping them open as a light shined on her. Her pupils seemed to shrink as the light traveled up and down her eyes.
The door opened and in stepped Yellow Technique, her arms folded professionally behind her back. "Status."
"We have just begun the procedure."
"Good. I only want all thoughts regarding her wishes to escape removed. Keep her training intact." Yellow Technique instructed. "We'll need her to track down her cohorts in case we cannot find them within the next rotation."
"Understood." The technician replied just before the alarm went off. "Intruder alert! The entrance has been breached!"
"That would be them now." Yellow Technique stated. "…I want you to add something else to her for me."
Xxx
It was easy make it past security.
Yellow Division may train its members to fight but they haven't had to fight for real in perhaps thousands of years. And unfortunately for them Monty Uno was more than able to take them down in a matter of seconds.
"The Rejuvenator is located in the barracks. It has its own room." Della informed him as she, Monty and Bonnibel made their way into the Yellow Division.
Monty nodded, catching a Yellow Division guard by surprise and knocking him out easily. "Let's hurry then."
"You know, if you wanted to see your fellow conspirator." The three stopped as Yellow Technique stepped out into the hall, facing them. "You had to just ask."
"We'll be taking our friends and leaving now, Yellow Technique. Stand aside and there will not be any harm." Monty stated.
"While I admit I admire your bravery." Yellow Technique narrowed her eyes. "No one orders me in my own Division."
With that said, Yellow Technique charged forward, leaping up to deliver a kick to Monty's head. The elder Uno raised a fist that was engulfed in white flames as he punched forward, colliding with Yellow Technique's foot. The collision resulted in a fiery shockwave that scorched the walls as Monty stepped back and Yellow Technique landed perfectly on her feet. Lifting her head up Yellow Technique charged forward, her hands changing into cannons and tried hitting Monty with them at close range.
Luckily Monty was fast enough to avoid and counter her strikes, even when she started firing her hand cannons.
"She's a cyborg." Bonnibel said, observing the manner in how the Yellow Division's leader summoned her cannons.
"Yeah. You learn to hate cyborgs around here." Della muttered, keeping a sharp eye on the battle.
Eventually their fists collided into a fiery power struggled.
"It's not gentlemanly to hit a lady." Monty muttered, punching Yellow Technique in the chest and tried kicking, adding a blast of white fire while he was at it. "Unless you are in a one on one duel. Then the kid's gloves come off."
Yellow Technique grabbed his foot and fired a blast at point blank range. Luckily Monty's Aura protected him and pulled Yellow Technique up, throwing her over his shoulder and fired another fiery blast that sent her flying past Bonnibel and Della.
"Get Nazz. I'll hold her back!" Monty called out, chasing after the Division leader.
The fiery blast was enough to knock Yellow Technique through a wall to outside the Yellow Division headquarters, landing on a green lawn.
Monty leapt out of the hole, slowly approaching the Division leader. "Had enough, Miss Technique?"
Yellow Technique stood up, her cannons morphing back into normal hands. "Not even close, Earthling."
Calling on the power of his Semblance, Monty fired multiple blasts of fire at Yellow Technique who quickly dodged them and then retaliated with a series of electrical blasts from her cannons that Monty then avoided. Yellow Technique then decided to finish through close combat, using her cannons to blast herself into the into the air by firing behind her and relying on the recoil before shooting herself down at Monty.

Della and Bonnibel rushed into the Rejuvenator chamber, Bonnibel knocking out the guard and Della shoving the technician aside.
"Are we too late?" Bonnibel asked, rushing up to the duck Mobian's side.
"Doesn't seem like it. Her memories are intact." Della said, shutting the machine down. "I think we made it in time."
The machine opened and Nazz came out, strapped to a gurney. Bonnibel quickly removed the restraints and helped Nazz sit up. "Are you all right?"
Nazz's eyes slowly opened. "I…I think so."
"Good. We need to move before they get organized and hunt us down." Bonnibel said urgently while helping Nazz stand up.
Xxx
Monty found himself on the defense, dodging Yellow Technique's fists while having little time to launch a counter attack of his own. Finally Yellow Technique tried to blast Monty with her hand/cannon but to her shock Monty grabbed the cannon as it fired. The electrical blast blinded her for a second and that was all Monty needed. His Aura protected him but the heat produced the blast traveled into his body and thanks to his Semblance he was able to channel all of the heat into his other hand as he slugged Yellow Technique in the torso, releasing a large blast of white fire that sent Yellow Technique shooting into the air and it exploded a second later.
Luckily Yellow Technique landed in a water fountain in the center of the city which was actually what Monty had been hoping for.
"For once I am proud of my family's Semblance." Monty held up his hand and saw there was not a single burn mark on it. "By fire or by electricity the heat never bothers me that much."
"Mr. Uno!"
He turned around, spotting Bonnibel and Della with Nazz as they ran out of the Yellow Division headquarters. "Let's hurry. More will be on the way."

"Shouldn't he be out of that statue by now?"
"Leave that to Rolf."
Rolf knocked all over Kevin's statue several times before placing his tongue on the statue and pounding it with his fist.
"I am never going to get used to that." Eddy shook his head.
CRACK!
From the spot Rolf pounded on a single crack formed, followed another and then another until the statue broke apart.
"Behold!"
Kevin was free from the statue, returning completely to normal but was still unconscious.
"Great, now we have to drag him to the exit with those two." Eddy gestured to Nigel and Abby who were still delirious from the overuse of their Elemental powers and had been left with the Pearls who had been looking after them. "That's three dead weights."
"We'll have to make do."
Monty walked back into the cave, followed by Bonnibel, Della and Nazz and quickly picked up the Ice and Candy Elementals.
"Nazz, you okay?" Jonny asked upon seeing the blond haired sweetheart of Peach Creek.
"Yeah, I'm good." Nazz nodded. "Yellow Technique found out what we were up to. She wasn't too happy about it."
"And it's only a matter of time before they find us. If we're to have any hope of escaping we have to reach the Warp Pad." Della said, picking up the special device she had showed the others before. "So we better move and fast."
Rolf picked up Kevin. "Rolf is ready to leave! May the Gems peel their onions and cry!"
With that said the group took off, running to the Homeworld Warp Pad.

"What is the status of the intruders?"
Having wished her yellow counterpart good luck Blue Diamond immediately returned to her palace and entered her control room, seeing her court already at work.
"Planetary Defense forces are still tracking the two who attacked Yellow Diamond, my Diamond." The Agate in charge reported.
"And the group that infiltrated my palace?" Blue Diamond sat in her command chair.
"Two have been spotted infiltrating Pink Diamond's palace, my Diamond. Security has been unable to capture them." The Agate brought up the image of the two intruders.
Blue Diamond stared at them, seeing a female Faunus with animal ears and a younger male specimen with a yellow colored tail. Her eyes narrowed slightly, focusing on the female Faunus and noticed something familiar.
"She resembles the Candy Elemental Abby." Blue Diamond muttered.
While finding organics strange due to running the Special Zone for thousands of years Blue Diamond was aware of that a male and female specimen could produce more than one new addition to the Zone much like how Gems of the same type could come from the same kindergarten. Blue Pearl kept an extensive record on the specimens in the Special Zone and it was recorded that when two specimens were somehow produced through a Choosening they often resembled each other. While not entirely understanding the fact that this new Faunus female resembled Abby was enough for Blue Diamond to understand there was a likely relation between the two. It was likely they were created by the same organic units on Earth.
"This explains why they seek the Elementals…" Blue Diamond rubbed her chin.
"My Diamond?" The Agate asked, confused by Blue Diamond's musing.
"Clear the path to the Special Zone Warp Pad." Blue Diamond waved off the Agate's concern. "We'll trap them in the zone."
"Of course, my Diamond." The Agate obeyed as she saluted and immediately carried out the orders given to her.
That was two of the four that infiltrated her palace accounted for. However Blue Diamond had still not located the unknown intruder she had fought earlier. He was the immediate concern and needed to be found quickly. Anyone with the power to challenge a Diamond was a grave threat and must be found and captured or destroyed at all costs.
"Continue searching for the fourth intruder." Blue Diamond ordered. "He is the more immediate threat."
She had no intention of letting him escape again.

"So now that we've found this pink palace what do we do now? Where are the guys?"
Wally Beetles was getting very impatient with trying to find and save his friends. He was running all over the place with Abby's cruddy sister and so far had not found them.
"Will you for at least half a second?" Cree grumbled, dragging the younger Faunus into the pink colored palace while placing her other hand over her ear communicator. "Obsidian, we to know how to get into the Special Zone."
"Our information supplied by Control Freak claims that the only accessible route into the Special Zone is a Warp Pad inside the palace of Pink Diamond. Since you are already there you need only find the Warp pad which should be close by."
"Thanks. Let us know if any Gems come after us."
"As far as I can tell, the Gems have surrounded the palace but are not entering." Obsidian replied.
"Confirmed." Strika spoke next. "They are holding position. Scanning for potential traps."
Cree suddenly stopped, not even blinking as Wally slipped and fell onto the ground.
"If the Gems have surrounded Pink Diamond's palace and know you are in there the logical conclusion would be to swarm the palace, lock down and capture the intruders." Obsidian stated.
"Unless the intention is to allow the intruders to enter the Special Zone." Strika replied. "If the Special Zone resides in a pocket dimension and only Gems can access it…"
"Then we'd have no way back." Cree shook her head. "We'll worry about that later. We just need to find the Warp Pad first and then work on getting into the zone first. We can work on getting out when we find the Elementals."
"Agreed." Obsidian voiced his agreement.
"It is the only tactically sound decision." Strika agreed as well.
"So direct us to the Warp Pad then." Cree said as Wally got back up. "Leave the rest of us."
"Very well."
"A Warp Pad is located in the center of the palace." Strika spoke. "Continue moving straight down the hall you are in."
Cree nodded and grabbed Wally, dragging him along with her again. "Hey!"
"Shut up and come on!"
As the two shot off down the hallway they failed to notice a strange shadow watching them.
Xxx
"Just up ahead!"
Back in the Special Zone the group had emerged from their hiding place, returning to the building where the Warp Pad leading back to the Gem home world was located.
Only there was a small problem.
"Going somewhere?"
Four obstacles stood in their path: Blue Power who wore a blue armored outfit much like Yellow Technique who was there as well along with two more who were no doubt the division leaders.
"Oh Glob." Della gulped. "We're in for it now."
"I take they are the other Division leaders?" Bonnibel asked.
Della nodded. "Black Strategy, leader of the White Division and Red Action, leader of the Pink Division."
Black Strategy was a young woman of average height and physical build with pale skin, black eyes and long, black, knee-length hair with a gray bow at the top. She, like the Division leaders, wore a set of armor that consisted of a light blue collar, shoulder pads, a chest plate, and bracers with light blue motifs, along with gray pants, knee pads, and high-heeled shoes. Red Action on the other hand had light, tan skin, green eyes and wildly fashioned, rose-colored long hair. She wore a set of red armor that was cut off at the bottom, exposing her midriff, a light blue collar, red shoulder pads, bracers with light blue motifs, dark gray capris cut just below the knee, a light blue belt with a scarlet buckle, red knee pads, and a red high-heeled shoe.
Her right hand had a red glove on it while her right leg, below the knee, was artificial like Della's.
"All four leaders of the Divisions here in the Special Zone. Be careful. They're not just trained warriors, they're cyborgs." Della whispered.
"Cyborgs?" Ed asked with a wide smile. "Cool!"
"No, Ed. Not cool." Eddy mumbled. "It's bad for us."
"We'll have to fight our way past them but it's not going to be easy." Monty sighed as he passed Nigel and Abby to their Pearls, not looking forward to the coming battle.
Xxx
"There it is!"
Before Cree and Wally was possibly the Warp Pad they had been looking for. The one that was supposed to lead them to the Special Zone.
"So…how do we use it?"
"Usually by relying on a Gem."
Both Faunus spun around, watching as three newcomers appeared. Two of them were strangers while the other was Omnimon himself.
"You made it." Cree remarked, placing a hand on her hip. "I thought Blue Diamond did you in for sure."
"It was a close call." Omnimon admitted as he stepped forward. "But I got lucky with the help of my new friends here."
"And they are?"
"Huntsmen sent by Sebben." Nier spoke, throwing a look at Cree. "Valhallen gave us the rundown on these Warp Pads. They only respond to Gems."
"So how do we get into the Zone then?" Cree asked, watching as Jesse walked past her.
"This is where I come in." Jesse held up his metallic arm. "You see, what makes Sebben so good at his job is that he's able to see just about any and all problems the hunters he hires might end up dealing with. So before we left he asked the boys at Dexlabs to make a little something for my arm."
On his wrist was a wrist band with a circular sphere that started glowing.
"It emits a Gem IFF signal that fools their sensors into mistaking anyone in range for Gems. We just step onto the pad and we'll get in and out of the zone." Jesse explained.
"They're in there!" A voice shouted outside.
"We better move!" Wally said and jumped onto the Warp Pad, followed by everyone else.
Just as the door to the room was knocked down the group vanished into a pillar of light, leaving the Rubies that had knocked down the door looking around.
"Where'd they go?"
Xxx
As soon as the light faded the rescue team found themselves in an entirely new room, directly telling them that the Warp Pad had worked.
"We're here." Jesse held up his arm, deactivating the IFF device.
"Well then let's go!" Wally shouted, rushing down the hallway, ignoring the group calling for him to wait up.
He bashed down the doors leading outside and saw a group of women dressed in armor about to fight a bunch of guys…With one of them being Nigel's dad!
And behind them he could see Nigel and Abby, being carried by two strange women who looked like twins. "I'M HERE GUYS!"
