15.) Le Destrucìon's Countermeasures!

HellBlazer sits atop the base. Underneath him was a massive contract circle built for two functions needed at the moment. He was busy scoping out the situation and the moves of his coming enemies. He did not wish to be taken by surprise by such low-level strategies. 

HellBlazer: "This mild contract was necessary. The costs affect me not… i can see and hear that Amiyama will be attacking. She's preparing for me."

Sonya: "Brother. He's been up there for quite some time. His power's becoming more immense by the second."

Joe: "Yeah. This is quite suffocating to be near. But then again… this galaxy is being overwhelmed by it."

Sonya: "Yeah."

HellBlazer: "Hmm. Perfect. The future sight says they'll come for us in three days. The assassins, huh? Luckily, if everything goes as fate decides, then they'll be interrupted on their way here. That's a foe, not even I'd want to face."

HellBlazer closes the circle as he has found what he desires. He teleports back into base to get his team further prepared for battle.

(With the training each member has been doing to rapidly improve their stats, abilities, and skills. I'll check on them and see the growth so far.)

Dimitri: "Hehe! So this is the legendary Orbs of Nefair passed down by your parents, huh? It was worth training with you three. Original source elements are what they employ, right?"

Taishin: "Well, of course, my guy. The Orbs are notorious for being able to replicate and use origins. Just like this original fire we have here. Helps improve your primitive fire, huh?"

Dimitri: "Indeed. I say we continue, we dont want to fall behind your sisters now, do we?"

Taishin: "No lies being told, my good sir. Let's continue then."

Dimitri: "Hmm! HAAAA!"

Dimitri engulfs himself in a phoenix shaped flame cloak and rushes straight for Taishin.

Taishin: "Brilliant, my good sir. Orb of Nefair: Dazzling Birth Flame!"

Dimitri: "I'll copy those flames and boost my own in the process!"

HellBlazer: (Seems I've no need to worry about these two over here. Nor the twin sisters. They've more control over the orbs and their weapons than even Taishin. This is most satisfying. Time to check on the Trigerpul Siblings.)

*FWIP*

Joe: *Huff* *huff* "I would've never thought you were damn near equal to me, sis. Incredible… you're just… incredible!"

Sonya: *Huff* *huff* *huff* "Well, it's been so long since we last fought head to head. Shit, even training together at that matter."

Joe: "Yeah. Eh-ehm, I say we rest up and get to using our newly discovered weapons. I want to evolve even further."

Sonya: "As do I. I refuse to stay at the same level."

HellBlazer:(Wow. Even these two are on the right track. Guess i can continue my quick checkups then. Nice!)

HellBlazer flashes out as the Trigerpul siblings rev up their training. On to the next training grounds he goes. The hideout is shaking with new development.

HellBlazer: "From what I can sense, Kitiro is pretty much high on the rise with his environment training. His ability to become one with his surroundings and nature. It's incredible, but my main focus is…"

In the quarter realms of the base, a zone cut off from the base reality of this Cosmology. There was a battle of black and white going on. Seems as though their improvements eclipse the others.

Diablos: "Haaaaa!!!"

Angelos: "Ngh! Damnit. I'll rise above you again, Diablos! Heavens…"

Diablos:(The fuck is this "Heavens" he speaks of?)

Angelos: "Embodiment!"

Diablos: "Hmm? What the!?"(Is that a new type of realm itself?)

From behind Angelos appeared the absolute full scale embodiment of the so-called "Heavens". There were winged creatures he resembled humans and grand gold gates that enclosed a grand palace atop the clouds. Behind all that were two beings who looked as though they were supreme within that realm and others. They all toted halo like that of the Risen. Even their wings resembled theirs. But Diablos just couldn't wrap his head around the two beings in the back. They had their own consciousness even within Angelos' attack. 

"This attack is alive itself. It's beyond even reasoning for an attack to have beings of their own person. But I'm not surprised. Seems we truly do mirror each other."

Angelos: "Hmm?"

Diablos: "Hellio, Underworld Embodiment. Chasm!"

From behind Diablos, appeared a great tower of horrendous proportions. It was the embodiment of carnage and malice, evil one could say. There were beings that looked similar to that of the fallen with 2 great Giants behind them all. Their presence felt godly. 

"Hmmph!"

Angelos: "Hehe."

Both Diablos and Angelos spread wings that represent their respective embodiments. Then… a head on collision took place. Distorting amd breaking down the dimension they were in. This same dimension is equal in size to a universe. Their power grows ever so vastly.

Diablos: "Hahaha! It seems as though our embodiments of light and dark are equal you bastard."

Amgelos: "Indeed brotha. But don't worry… you're still gonna lose this sparring match nonetheless!"

Diablos: "We'll see."

Angelos: "Tch!"

Diablos releases a black mass with a purple core. From inside the core spewed a blood red wild energy that molded and shaped the mass. That same mass was turned into a trident of ghoulish proportions. 

Angelos: "Oh? Interesting buddy, guess I'll show off my embodiment weapon as well whore."

Angelos mirrors his brother and releases a white cloud with a golden center. That same center spews a luscious, pure blue that wraps and molds the cloud into a tempest rod. 

Angelos: "Hehehe!"

Diablos: "Hmph!" *Smirk* 

Diablos and Angelos once again charge at each other. Only this time they carry the very weapons that are famed in their respective realms. The clash puts a crack in the dimensional wall…

HellBlazer:(Their growth is beyond even my own. They're closing the gap so… suddenly and masterfully. This'll be quite the help.) *Smile*

HellBlazer let's off a disturbing and chilling smile as he schemes for the fall of Amiyama's team. Then that of the "balance" that's upheld by forces unknown by most. 

"Lord Haydes will be all to pleased at this new development. Who would've thought his two halves could be commanded at such a level. I'll break this omniverse to pieces. Then Haydes shall rule over the remains."

???: (HellBlazer.)

HellBlazer: "Hmm? What is it sir?"

???: "Have you alreadt peeked at the future moves of our opposers?"

HellBlazer: "Yes sir. I know the upcoming fate for you younger brother and his faction. He'll be in their way afterall. We should be fine. It's that wretched Amiyama that worries me."

???: "No worries my boy. Amiyama will be handled by me personally when the invasion begins."

HellBlazer: "Surely you dont need to get involved personally do you sir?"

???: "Well but of course. You underestimate Amiyama if you think otherwise. She's capable of fighting current Death to a standstill. Let me handle it."

HellBlazer: "Yes sir. I understand then. Will that be all?"

???: "Indeed…. Wait, make sure the two halves are well nurtured. I dont need Amiyama interfering on a mental level. That'll be all until the invasion."

HellBlazer: "Understood Lord Haydes."

Haydes: "Hmm. Indeed" *FWIMP* 

HellBlazer: (Seems as though things are gettong dire if he's stepping in. I wonder if my conscious will disappear this time.)

HellBlazer stands, lost in thought as he wonders on about the upcoming war. In that same time, Amiyama was readying her people. Getting closer to being ready for their invasion. 

Amiyama: "Hey, Kimichi?"

Kimichi: "Yes, madame Amiyama?"

Amiyama: "Do you think we have a chance at losing this battle against Haydes? He himself is formidable but he also has five other God of War clansmen on his side."

Kimichi: "Well to be honest Ami, I always thought it was going to be 50/50 regardless. Even with those 2 prodigies joining us."

Amiyama: "Hmm. Then we were thinking the same thing milady. Still crazy to think i have to actually fight my brother in-law."

Kimichi: "Its definitely tragic but we'll get Death back at the end of this. Thats why I joined you. Ao lets make sure we succeed bitch."

Amiyama: "Bitch… easy. We'll make it all look easy. Don't hold back."

Kimichi: "Indeed. Hmm, still hard to believe Kaguro's dumbass went and challenged HellBlazer alone. But at least now we know HellBlazer is stronger than what was first discovered."

Amiyama: "Yeah. It seems he's no fool. He's been training and gaining more strength. I'm also guessing his mastery over contracts has increased."

Kimichi: "From what my brother said, his finesse and mastery are far higher than what you told us."

Amiyama: "Hmm. Ok. Shouldn't be an issue for my fire, let alone my cancel study."

Kimichi: "Right. Good to hear."

???: Yo cousin Ami, I'm back from my mission."

Amiyama: "Ooooh? Perfect timing cuzzo. Perfect timing indeed."

???: "If you're saying that, there must be an operation about to happen soon. Am I right?"

Amiyama: "Indeed you are. Siege on Blazer is almost a go. And we got two unexpected hands on deck."

???: Oh? That's fuckin' great Yama! We finna tear some shit up."

Amiyama: "Damn right!"

Kimichi: "Fuckin' facts big fella."

Amiyama: "Well cousin Aiyama? You ready?"

Aiyama: "Well, but of course. Let's take all these bitches to the morg."

The final member of Amiyama's squad has finally arrived. Aiyama joins Amiyama's lead as they push forward towards HellBlazer! Only 28 days remain until Death's revival!
