((Okay sorry for double post, and Sorry Wriggle for skipping on but this is a good way to keep it going and let you join back in whenever you feel back in the mood, but this is to keep things from remaining stagnant.))

As Pit was saved just barely by Frisk, Pit sighed in relief as he looked at the young child.

"Heh... eheh... that was... a close one!" Pit spoke as he caught his breath... Then Frisk told him her plan... which just made him have a flat out "are you nuts!?" reaction.

"W-What!? D-DO YOU SEE THE SIZE OF THAT THING!? You can't suplex it and I doubt it understands speech!! There's no way that-" Pit was spoking as the ground began shaking... quite intensely in fact. "W-Whoa what's going on!?"




Washington D.C | City Park

Meanwhile as Midna was confronting Athena... while Julius and Palutena was beginning to get close to breaking the barrier when suddenly they felt the shaking... and Palutena stopped as she felt the intensity of demonic power begin to erupt from Death's portal.
"Oh no... That power... It's insane!!" Palutena spoke up as she tried to continue helping Julius when suddenly... a series of stone pillars began to erupt from the ground all over. The first one caused Julius to get struck and fall back, stopping the barrier breaking process. Palutena meanwhile had caught him and immediately used her magic to create a shield around the vampire hunter, Toriel, Papyrus, herself, and Midna to shield them from any loose debris, but left them still to avoid any pillars or anything to rise from the ground as these stone pillars began rising from the ground.


In fact a sudden pillar began rising up from the ground where Athena was standing, and quite quickly too as it carried her off to extreme heights...


Inside Death's barrier it got worse. The portal had dissipated as Death began laughing.


"AHAHAHAHA!! IT'S FINALLY TIME! NOW! TEMEN-NI-GRU... RISE FROM THE EARTH AND BRING CHAOS TO THIS LAND!!!" Death yelled as he then teleported to safety... the barrier faded and suddenly... a tower. A massive one the size of the Empire State Building... but much wider began to erupt from the ground. Spouting demonic gargoyles made of blood and all other sorts out all across the area...


Pit had saw this and quickly reached out to grab Frisk and began running as fast as he possibly could, and thanks to being an angel he was capable of running quite fast with Frisk in tow...



By the time the tower was fully risen the amount of demonic power that was being put out was too intense, the pillar Athena was on had stopped right at the perfect height for her to jump off and onto the top floor of the main tower.

The others down below... Palutena and Julius had gotten up and begun trying to avoid any falling boulders from when the tower rose from the ground. The same for Pit and Frisk.

As the debris kept falling, some were cut in smaller and harmless pieces with Midna´s magic, she was focusing her magic on forming a hail of figments of twili magic, the black paper thin squares were shredding the debris as if they were nothing, but bigger rocks wouldn´t crack. The ones that held their form or were too big for the twili were incinerated by Toriel´s Fireballs, she was using her trident to launch volleys of fire to the rocks, the heat of the pure essence of fire melted and dissolved the threats.

Both magicians looked at each other as a rock that was the size of a bus came down, without communicating, the goat monster charged her trident and slammed its points to the ground, rising rocks from the underground, this was followed by the twili former royal as she levitated the rocks and formed a barrier around everyone, symbols of her culture appeared on the air that formed the protective barrier.

When the bus sized rock crashed with the barrier, it made cracks on the protective charms and rocks, but got destroyed in the process, giving everyone a breath of safety. Panting with exhaustion, both females kept the barrier, waiting for the others to act.

Little Efina gladly followed her mother, skipping and running around her feet. She had plenty of energy to burn and not a whole lot to do on the way to wherever it was they were going. So instead she made a game out of seeing how many times she could circle around her mother without stepping on any cracks in the sidewalk.

The Great Papyrus helped out as well, using a number of bone based attacks to parry the falling rubble, mostly aiming at the closer ones that the other two missed or just didn't see. When it was all over, the helpful skeleton took a moment to relax. To bad Undyne isn't here. she could SUPLEX al the builders for us. I'm not sure how that would help though."

Meanwhile Frisk was quickly dragged away before she could even respond to Pit doubting her ability to dunk a ten ton fish monster. But ranter than argue about it, she just went along and let the boy carry her to their next location. She put her jet pack away in her phone for now until it would be needed again. Ther should have been enough fule for a little bit more use.

Carmelita was heading towards their vehicle while Efina was making circles around her, some would think that the Inspector would be annoyed of the little dragon's attitude, but she in fact enjoyed her daughter's energy and happines. ("I can imagine the shock in your face Ring tail, you would make a cheese line just to rile me up.") she thought while opening the car's doors so she and Efi could get inside.

She couldn't help but think of Cooper and his gang, years of memories were stored in her mind, the heists, the chases, even the dances and moments of peace. Carmelita wouldn't say it, but she missed the Racoon, but she never had the time to make an actual search for the thief.

But going back on reality, the location that Proto Man gave her was close and she could see the building "This is the place Efi, and it looks like everyone is out" she said while looking at the building "Be ready for anything" she spoke now in business mode.

While Palutena was shielding the group with her magic, Julius looked up and saw a large cluster of stone falling down. Quickly seeing this he got to a stand and took out his metal chain Vampire Killer whip, and with one quick snap of it the bundle of stone was shattered into smaller individual pieces. Though this proved somewhat bad as he wasn't as maneuverable enough to take care of the rest of the rubble... Unless he used the Grand Cross, one of his ultimate techniques of which would easily clear and destroy any rubble in the area. Unfortunately such raw holy power in the area would potentially be bad for their allies Papyrus and Toriel, possibly Midna to an extent due to the collateral damage at least.

So he was left with not much options until Palutena stood up and slammed her staff on the ground. Doing so what looked to be 3 pairs of large angel wings began shining brightly behind her... almost blinding as she released a barrage of homing bolts of heavenly magic at any remaining debris that would be falling down towards the group...

With the tower now fully risen, and no more loose stone and debris falling the group were now safe for the most part. For now with the tower up the amount of demonic energy being released was intense. It made the air around them feel... heavy, foreboding even. It was clear that whatever reason Death had in summoning this tower... it certainly wasn't good. With the coast now clear, Palutena released her barriers from the group. She seemed to be a bit out of breath from that little stunt though.

ON THE OPPOSITE SIDE OF THE TOWER HOWEVER! Pit was too focused on running from any loose debris until he felt the strong surge of holy power that Palutena had released. Sensing it he quickly grabbed Frisk, embraced her, and jumped into a small ditch as if seeking shelter from the blasts of Palutena's magic.



((can't really do much for Paris since I have to where Ice Man and Proto Man are now waiting.

Little Efi got into the car and buckled herself in as though she had done it many times before. Over the short car ride she looked at the passing people, cars and buildings with curious eyes. The world seemed so big to one so small and her imagination ran away with her. She was eventually snapped back to reality by her mother's words when she told her they had arrived. Efina jumped just a tad when he realized she was still in the real world an d not simply lost in her imagination.

She unbuckled and reached for the car door, but befoe she got out she looked to her mother and spoke. "Hey mama? Why are we chasing these robot guys? Are they bad?"

Frisk ran alongside Pit as they fled, seemed to have very little problem avoiding the falling rocks that cam her way. In fact it was almost too easy for her, as if she had done it a hundred times before. When she was pulled into the ditch, she didn't resist at all. In fact se embraced Pit right back, even took the time to nuzzle her face between his neck and his shoulder. "There, there, I'll protect you." she told him in a surprisingly calm and soothing voice.

Carmelita was at Ice Man´s work zone when Efina asked her about the Robot Masters "We don´t know for sure Efi, there have been some reports of Ice Man and some of his friends acting weirdly, so it is mama´s job to check on them" she answered while opening the door to the building, she could feel the colder temperature oozing from the place already "If they are just coincidence, then there is nothing wrong, but if the Robot Masters are actually causing problems to the people, then they are being bad." she explained as the sound of her boots could be heard by Proto Man.

As the two Robots waited for the inspector, Proto Man looked up from a look up at the sound of hearing Carmelit'as boots against the cold, hard concrete floor of the factory. Hearing this he turned to face the fox as she approached, and with a small smirk he spoke.

"So. Finally made it huh? Hope whatever you had to deal with wasn't too hard." He spoke with a chuckle as he leaned against one of the unpowered machines. While Ice Man looked up nervously at the inspector before turning away.

... Then Proto Man saw the little girl.

"You brought her along? You realize how dangerous this place can be right?"

When Palutena's barriers faded, and with the tower now fully risen. The goddess turned to the others as she was panting from using up a decent amount of energy. Not that it would effect her badly, just leave her a little out of breath. She then asked everyone else.

"Is everyone okay...?" Palutena asked as she looked at everyone with a slightly worried face. Julius sighed and nodded before turning to the tower, before falling to one knee as if he was weak.

"I'm fine Palutena.... but damn... the energy this tower is putting out... It's strong. It even feels harder to breathe and stand near it. Worst of all I don't entirely recognize it." Julius spoke as he forced himself back to a stand. Thankfully due to Midna's magic back in the apartment's, Julius has a lot more stamina and energy.




Washington D.C | City Park

Meanwhile with Pit and Frisk... The angel couldn't hear Frisk due to the sound of the blasts from Palutena's magic as the rubble was destroyed. Though when everything was seemed and sounded clear, Pit sat up. Still holding onto and hugging Frisk as he looked up. "Oh man... that was Palutena's magic... At least she seemed to have taken out every-" That was when Pit finally took true notice of the ancient skyscraper that reached high up into the sky. His jaw dropped in shock as he held onto Frisk. However... another thing immediately caught his attention was a piece of the tower cracking and falling apart right after them. It wasn't an incredibly large piece, but it was large enough so that if it did fall and hit them... They'd be crushed and stopped dead right where they stand. It was also falling quite quickly, leaving little time to react aside from Pit covering his and Frisk's face in a futile attempt to avoid the rock when suddenly...

The boulder stopped in it's tracks and started glowing a faint blue. Frisk can then hear an all too familiar, and relieving voice.


"Heh. Looks like you got yourself in a rocky situation. Good thing I just made it." Spoke Sans as he was holding his hand out while his left eye was glowing blue. Something Frisk hasn't seen that much... but is entirely aware of. Sans does not normally use his powers unless it means serious business. At that moment Sans flicked his hand to the right and the boulder he caught with his telekinesis went flying before crashing into the ground. He then walked over to the two and chuckled quite casually.


"Wow. You two should get a room." He joked as he held out a hand for Pit and Frisk to climb out of the ditch in the ground.


... The second Sans said that, Pit finally realized what he was doing and he quickly let go of Frisk before climbing out of the ditch.

Carmelita was already on Inspector mode as she looked at the place and then her gaze zeroed on Proto Man "It was a daily thing on the headquarters, the chief and I had a talk about an important subject related to our last conversation." she said and then her known skowl appeared when he questioned her choice of bringing the dragon girl. "I´ll let you knkow that Efina isn´t just a mere kid, think of your friend Megaman he had the most basic elements and managed to be the strongest of your world" she pointed out.

The fox then looked at Ice Man, her face softened as she spoke to him "Good day mister Ice Man, I´m Inspector Carmelita Fox and I came here regarding some odd occurrences with your brethren the Robot Masters." she spoke in a calm tone to show she wasn´t hostile "We got reports on them acting strange, but we can´t simply go and arrest them, so I´m here to ask about your perspective with this situation."

Washington D.C | City Park


Toriel was using her trident to not let her legs collapse due to the surge of exhaustion that came over here "I´ll be fine in some moments." she reasurred Palutena while looking at the tower "That place holds magic that shouldn´t be used, I can feel ittrying to corrupt living beings."

Midna on the other hand wasn´t unfazed by the energy coming from the building, she was sweating from the barrier she had made with Toriel and the twilight rain to destroy the debris, but she was opening and closing her palms, preparing for surely another battle "As the goat woman said, the energy coming from that tower is forbidden by the normal standards, no wonder the carrier of souls was the summoner."

Proto Man just shrugged as he continued to lean against the unpowered machine behind him. He just began to watch on and see the Inspector in action... first-hand this time.

Ice Man looked a bit nervous as he stood up straight and almost like a bit of a soldier. However he seemed to be stuttering a bit.


"I uh..." Ice Man muttered before a pause before he gave him a salute... then he began speaking to himself.

"Permission to disclose information to Law Enforcement sir? Of course soldier it's the right thing to do!" Ice man spoke before he then began talking...


"Yesterday at midnight I was working on producing the last batch of the new Ice Cream flavor. Blackberry Blast. When I heard the sound of glass breaking in the factory. Upon investigating I was attacked and rendered unconscious Ma'am. By the time I woke up I had no recollection of what happened! Security Cameras have been rendered private in the Factory Archives. Ma'am!" Ice Man explained as briefly as possible... while seemingly juggling between a personality of a military squad captain, and a regular soldier.

Julius who was now beginning to recover from a failed attempt at breaking that magic barrier, walked closer to the tower and examined it. It was clear by his expression... He never seen a tower with such architecture before...


Spoiler ((It's the size of the empire state building but significantly wider.))


"You're right... the power from this building is... Intense. I don't even recognize it. I never heard or read about a tower such as this in my world. Must be from different world... but my main question is why? Why would Death want to summon this... thing instead of resurrecting Dracula?" Julius spoke aloud as he began thinking....


"Death has to be using this tower for something, and whatever it is it won't be good that's for sure. I can only assume that there is something inside this tower that Death needs... And whatever it is we must find it before he does."
