It was the moment they have been preparing for. The darkness has reached Kari and up ahead on the road to Aircano at the first barricade of Kari, the soldiers stationed there, Kari and Utopia alike, could see the first wave of Netherrealm soldiers marching towards them. Led by none other than the Crimson Devil herself. But these were not the fallen angels of Yahweh who followed behind her.
They were the Tarkatan. Blades extending from their forearms, terrible teeth grinding prepared for battle and their noses picking up the scent of the soldiers up ahead, all they needed was the word from their Mistress for them to begin tearing apart any that stood in the Netherrealm's way. That word came in the form of a single finger snap as the army of Tarkatans charged towards the first barricade meeting the Kari and Utopian soldiers in battle. One Tarkatan decapitated a soldier's head with his blade, another stabbed a Utopian through the chest with both blades and lifted them up, the soldier screaming in agony before hardly anything of their form remained after the brutal shakes and crashing the corpse into the ground.
One of the Tarkatans lunged at a Kari soldier biting their head clean off with his teeth, only to get his own head blown off point blank by Lucy as the Demon Assassin Edie joined the fight, Lucy and Umbra in her hands as she fought through the Tarkatans attacking.
“You're all a bunch of miserable fucks.”
Edie shot her way through multiple Tarkatans, switching between her guns to the sword knocking one into a dozen, hitting one with a Million Stab and another with a High Time, allowing them to fly through the air before switching back to the Lucy and Umbra, blowing more holes through the enemy as she received cover fire from the Kari soldiers behind her. She made a point to shoot the one in the air to keep him airborne before finishing off the ones on the ground surrounding her and hitting the one still in the air with an Air Rave. Finishing him off with a powerful Helm Breaker that sent him through the street. Her eyes finding the leader of the army up ahead.
The Crimson Devil and the Demon Assassin narrowed their eyes at one another before they both charged forward at the same time and collided causing a small eruption in the middle of the battlefield forcing Kari, Utopian and Tarkatans back as to them all they could see was a purple and red blur clashing right before their eyes. Kasul and Mirror Edge's blades screamed throughout the city as the two devils matched each other blow for blow. Mid-spin Edie would change the Mirror Edge for Lucy and Umbra, a trick Ranko remembered all too well from the Demon Killer back in Aircano. This time Ranko swung Kasul in a vertical slash forcing Edie backward and causing a delay in her firing from the twin pistols as Ranko followed up with a dual horizontal slash knocking the Demon Assassin off her feet.
Edie hit the ground and Ranko stayed on her, dragging Kasul across the ground for an upper-cut slash but the Demon Assassin came back with two Dimensional Slashes from the Otamay katana followed up by a Judgment Cut to knock the Crimson Devil off her feet. As Edie moved forward, she would be caught off guard by Ranko's brand new gauntlet, an armored claw that grabbed the Demon Assassin's right arm and hooked her into a front half full-nelson, using the leverage to keep Edie bent over as Kasul came to the side of her neck and connected with a quick upward jerk at the Demon Assassin's jugular artery before tossing her body at the mercy of the surrounding Tarkatans. Collecting a piece of the devil's soul in the process. |

"The Lord is my rock, my fortress and my deliverer; my God is my rock, in whom I take refuge, my shield and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold."
Utena repeated those words to herself as she stood along the barricade with Kari and Utopian soldiers waiting for the inevitable battle with the Netherrealm. Because of this entire situation Utena didn't have a whole lot of time to dig into scripture but what she did managed to read has helped her so far. She wondered where Anderson was now and if he would make an appearance to help them end this here. And if she made the right choice in regards to June and Anthy. It was relieving somewhat to know that June was not present in the city but she didn't want to think about what would happen if they failed again. This time failure wasn't an option.
As always the Netherrealm had a way about them when announcing their arrival. They didn't need words. All they needed was to twist the world around them that was slowly falling to the demon world with each passing day. Utena looked out ahead to see the Crimson Devil coming closer but this time it was the fallen angels she had grown used to seeing from the last two previous battles she engaged in. Instead it was some strange, bald headed creature with large teeth, yellow eyes and forearm blades.
"What are those things?"
"Tarkatan," replied a Kari soldier by Utena's side. "It would seem that the Netherrealm Queen has ventured into the deepest, darkest regions of the Netherrealm for this fight. Stay sharp."
Utena wrapped her hand around the basket hilt of the Rapier and drew it out, just in the nick of time as one of the Tarkatans lunged towards her looking to literally take her head off with his teeth. This forced Utena to leap back and defend her upper left and right torso with a parry four and six against the creature's blades before stepping forward once, blade straight, thrusting the Rapier straight into the being's heart while her other leg remained stationary in the Lunge.

The battle waged on between devil and half devil, tarkatan and human, the Netherrealm against what the best of Genesis and Utopia had to offer. As blade met flesh, bullet met blade and warriors fell to their deaths one tarkatan's foot would weigh down in the worse possible place for his health as the ground beneath his feet erupted and sent him spiraling back into his comrades knocking them down and giving the soldiers time to regroup as the cause of that little explosion was thanks to the woman clad in pink standing at the top of the small building behind the barricade.
The Blind Assassin Fukari.
Fukari dropped down to the ground and enter the battlefield with a hand over the hilt of her Katana. As another tarkatan neared, the Blind Assassin sheath her blade, bashing the hilt of it into the creature's gut and then cutting through his flesh with several well aimed slashes and resheathing it in the same instant as the demon fell to the ground and returned to the Netherrealm. She continued her walk through the chaos, catching the scent of the Crimson Devil inhaled through her nostrils as she sprint into a run, pulling a sonic grenade out of her pocket and throwing it into the swarm of tarkatans.
"Cover your ears!"
The grenades went off but instead of exploding they screeched across the air causing the tarkatan to shout out in pain and leaving them as easy pickings for the soldiers' bullets. Meanwhile the Blind Assasin, having deafen herself on purpose for a brief moment to power through, managed to continue on through unopposed as she closed the gap between herself and the Crimson Devil and decided to refresh Ranko's memory on who she was in the form of a barrage of slashes aimed in her direction, sheathing and unsheathing the Katana with each slash.

A series of energy beams shot out from the barricade as the Soldier of Justice and Truth joined the fight. The energy beams blasting back the demons that were gathering around the fallen Demon Assassin while Sailor V brandished her chains and swiped them at the enemies that came her way clearing a path to where Edie was swung to, hoping that by some miracle her demonic powers allowed her to survive what Ranko did to her.

”You gotta be kidding me!” Rebecca cried out as she fired her MP5 at the advancing demon army each of them falling to , ”I didn’t join the Resistance just to fight monsters all over again!”
”Then what were you expecting?” Nadia asked as her heavy machine gun mowed down any Tartakans foolish enough to meet her head on, Nadia seemed to be enjoying the whole affair as there was a wide grin on her face, it was something that Rebecca had yet to figure out why. The two girls were now fighting on the frontlines against the Netherrealm army, when they had heard about an army composed of monsters and demons both of them thought that it was an impossibility. However they quickly learned that on Genesis anything was possible and monsters was one of them as they tried to stem the tide of monsters rushing towards them, they had to hold on here as long as possible for the other garrisons or the entire battle would be lost.
There were many skilled Resistance fighters, however, on their side and both girls knew that they could only support them since they weren’t as good as them as they aided their fellow Resistance members in fighting off the monsters. Rebecca quickly came to the aid of one of the soldiers as he had a deep gash on his chest from a Tartakan slash as he flailed wildly, blood spurting out of his chest, ”Calm down or you’re going to make it worse” Rebecca said as she applied pressure on the wound before having another nearby soldier to help prop him up as she bandaged the wound.
”Shit! This thing hurts!” the soldier screamed as Rebecca sighed and ignored it, although she was a medic she never really had to deal in a battlefield situation, but her foray with the Resistance had shown her what a real battle was like and she was used to such things now. Suddenly the soldier’s eyes widened as Rebecca followed his gaze to see a Tartakan descending and his blade about to meet her as she screamed and prepared for a painful stab but suddenly a loud bang echoed as Rebecca opened her eyes. The Tartakan’s head was nothing more then a bloody mess as Nadia stood there with a shotgun in hand.
”Mon dieu, you should be more careful Rebecca” Nadia said with a wink before switching to her heavy machine gun and continuing to cover Rebecca as she finished dressing the soldier’s wound before sending him off, ”ready to stand our ground?”
”With you? Always, someone has to make sure your hair doesn’t get any redder” Rebecca replied with a smile as the two girls nodded and continued to lay down the fire knowing that there were hundreds just like them fighting for their freedom.

Joann had been waiting for this moment. There had been many of the resistance gathered within Kari for the past few months but she had avoided them. Her orders were never to engage contact with the resistance, her orders were to kill the demon army. She walked down the stairs from the Inn she stayed at and went to the parking lot where her motorcycle was located. Joann threw her leg across the bike and kick started it turning it around in one quick motion before she was off on the road toward the city limits.   She raced across town dodging between the cars toward the first barricade where she had felt one of the most concentrated essence of evil power. It was the closest one to her and if the one she was ordered to kill wasn't here then she would simply move on to the next two. Joann leaned forward and increased her speed, there was very little to get in her way as the city alarms went off and cars were driving AWAY from the attack rather than to it. There were more military vehicles heading in the direction she was going but they were all in order driving in lines as a formation than spread out.   Joann finally came to a halt about thirty feet away from the barricade and made her way to it. The moment she came within twenty feet of any person her extremely dense holy aura could be felt. She may of been suppressing it to hide herself but now it was impossible. Joann walked right past the barricade despite pleas from many of the soldiers. She raised her right hand and her sword materialized in a blinding great holy light. She held it in front of her and finally released all of her power transforming directly into her armored state.  The entirety of her holy aura would be felt across the entire city by any who was sensitive to feeling holy energies. It was so powerful that the ground she stood on became consecrated and any unholy being who stepped on it would begin to burn. In her transformation anything impure and unholy around her would of been vaporized instantly. Joann raised her sword over her head and gathered her power into the blade of her weapon. "And Shepherds we shall be for thee, my Lord, for thee. Power hath descended forth from Thy hand. Our feet may swiftly carry out Thy commands. So we shall flow a river forth to Thee and teeming with souls shall it ever be. In Nomeni Patri Et Fili Spiritus Sancti!"Joann slashed her weapon straight down and released all of the holy energy she had gathered. The extremely powerful holy energy wave shook the ground as it left her sword and cut a deep path straight forward into the ground straight into the mass of the demon army. Any of the demons that was hit by it would be utterly obliterated and any too close to it would feel their flesh burn away. Once the energy was gone a mile long trench from where she stood was all that remained directly in front of her. Though these demons knew they could come back to this world they would suddenly feel fear trickle down their spines.  She looked around the area at the demons surrounding her and a little smile crossed her lips, "Whose next?" |

Kain was watching the battle out the window of his office from HQ, which stood near the center of the city not out of ego but out of necessity as every corner would put his back to another city and he didn't want to be too close to the Spiral in case it ever went off. Kain was just in time to see the display from Joann, the Hellsing agent White Queen has been keeping tabs on via satellite since her arrival into the city. Witnessing countless unholy beings being destroyed in a matter of seconds Kain brought out his radio and spoke to the Commander on site. "Commander. Order all unholy beings on site to stay the hell away from the armored blonde.""Yes sir!""White Queen, activate the auto-turrets and send in the unmanned vehicles. Tell the Strait Jacket unit to stay put, I want them guarding the second set of barricades should the demon army manage to break through the first." |

 "As you wish, Mr. Kain."On the battlefield the stationed auto-turrets would power on and began to fire at the swarm of demons in-coming thinning out their ranks, giving those on foot the chance to cut through as the turrets did most of the dirty work for them. Targeting the demon's energies to make dodging impossible and changing its own energy for whenever the demons adapted to the last round that was fired. While this was going on White Queen spoke through the various speakers located in the city. "Welcome to Kari. Please enjoy your stay. As short as it may be..."Hovertanks, Mototanks, Rattlers, Goliaths, M1A1 Abrams, M2 Hydras, FLP-Es, Hornets, Infernos, Marksmans and Rhinos rode onto the front lines providing cover for the Kari and Utopian soldiers at the same time VTOLs flew through the air and open fired on the demons below alongside the auto-turrets. The tanks and VTOLs would spread out among the three barricades with one goal in mind. Search and destroy. |

The Crimson Devil parried the barrage of slashes and then sent the Blind Assassin back with a boot to the chest before her attention was drawn to another.
"And Shepherds we shall be for thee, my Lord, for thee. Power hath descended forth from Thy hand. Our feet may swiftly carry out Thy commands. So we shall flow a river forth to Thee and teeming with souls shall it ever be. In Nomeni Patri Et Fili Spiritus Sancti!"
Another follower of Yahweh. Yet there was something different about this one, something that set her apart from the priests of Aircano. Even the High Priestess who was known throughout Jherra as the will of God. Kasul could sense it too as the blade vibrated in her hand at the presence of this woman's power. They would both see it first hand as the woman released her holy energy, eliminating a large margin of her army that even the auto-turrets couldn't cover in half the time it took her. Shielding her eyes from the holy light she waited for it to dive down and then made a path towards the unknown blonde.
"Whose next?"
“I am,” replied the Crimson Devil as she stepped before the woman with her demon sword Kasul raised in one hand, armored claw that reached up to her elbow ready on the other.
“I have already rivaled the power of God. Now it's time I surpass it.”
Edie was still alive when Sailor V found her, but in a bad way as she was continuing to bleed out from where Ranko had cut her and Kasul taking a piece of her soul wasn't helping matters either. If it weren't for the demon blood inside of her, the Demon Assassin would have been long dead by now.
“L-Luca,” she said weakly while crawling on the ground. “Y-you need to take me to Luca.”
An army of small demonic dragons poured out of a portal in the air, getting into dog fights with the VTOLs of the air as the tarkatans returned in full force, staying clear of Ranko and Joann and instead going after Utena's position as well as Nadia and Rebecca's. The Netherrealm's answer to the tanks and auto-turrets came in the form of a four-armed monster with a high resistant to pain.
The Shokan joined the fight, knocking over tanks and suicide charging towards the auto-turrets looking to remove them by force to allow the rest of the army to continue onward past the first barricade. |

Utena managed to take down the tarkatan in the Lunge, but that was such a small victory next to everything else that was going on. The former Champion of Ohtori was glad not to be alone in this conflict. She had Kari and Utopia support, as well as the other warriors on the battlefield, and the weapons of the city. With any luck God was on her side too as they fought to repel the Netherrealm army. Seeing the shokan head for the turrets, Utena alongside other Kari soldiers stepped out in front of them to hold them back. Utena raised the Rapier straight ahead at the shokan now in front of her aiming to slice the blade on through while quickly running past him to evade the counter-strike with all four arms.

The Blind Assassin was knocked back but quickly regained her footing before she could step on her own claymore. As the shokan went after the auto-turrets they ran right into the claymore mines that Fukari had set. While it wasn't enough to knock them off their feet it slowed them down allowing for the auto-turrets and remaining tanks to do the rest. Hearing Ranko speak to Joann, the Blind Assassin rushed to the scene with her katana at the ready.
"No... Ranko is mine. Do you hear me? Ranko is mine!"

Sailor V nodded in response to Edie and gently helped her up to her feet. Escorting the Demon Assassin away from the battle to search for assistance with her wounds. "Help!" The Soldier of Truth and Justice called out to any of their allies that could spare a hand. "I got a soldier wounded I need help."

"Alright now we're talking!" Nadia cried out as the turrets began to assist the soldiers in defending the barricades while the unmanned vehicles pounded away at the Tartakans, as both girls redoubled their efforts at making some sort of stand among all this chaos.
Rebecca then heard Sailor V cry out for help as she turned to see her carrying someone, "Nadia cover me," she said as the red haired soldier nodded covering Rebecca as the former S.T.A.R.S member rushed towards the injured Demon Assassin. Grimacing at the sight of the cut neck, "Not good, she's going to need emergency medical help, not something I can do on the field," she said to the Sailor as she went and applied pressure on the wound, it was all that she could do, "we have to get her out of here stat," she said firmly looking at Nadia as the two silently communicated and began to cover the three of them, "let's hurry!"

The 280mm Cannon of the Goliath tank came alive upon the charging shokan as silver balls in the ground rose up through the air and unleashed a siege of lasers to obliterate the tarkatans that past to leave fewer for the defense to fend off. The Firehawks took to the sky unleashing rattlesnake missiles to the opposing demonic dragons and dropping more deadly Hellcat bombs to the ground forces below in open spaces where the defense couldn't get caught up in the crossfire. |

Joann sneered at the red headed woman, "You cannot surpass the LORD as anything other than a Saint. You defile these grounds we walk upon and for that I curse you to eternal damnation within the confines of a holy prison. You will not be murdered today for our lord and savior doesn't wish it so. Instead, you will be broken and left within a cell blessed with the most holy power known to mankind."
By which time the blind woman had stepped between them, "It seems we have a problem here. This blind assassin would rather be killed then allow me to save the people around her in one swift stride. Very well, throw your life away quickly so that you can be saved in the afterlife. But know that I will not stand down."
Joann of course looked to the open area on her right making sure that none of the resistance was tangled up with the oncoming army before she slashed her sword releasing holy energy that cut through the crowd halving every demon it touched and burning their bodies in holy fire until nothing remained. Her gaze returned to Ranko locked in a war of willpower now.
