Legend: (Y/N) - Your Name (F/C) - Favorite Color

===========================

(Author's POV)

Imma be real with you readers. There's a lot of shit that happens in Daten City. A shit monster that causes people to vomit upon smelling? Fucking disgusting, but it was a real thing. Literal ghost sperm that wanted revenge by getting rid of all tissues and toilet paper? Yep, that happened. A ghost that had double D tits for eyes that shot alien milk that made females obese? Don't know how it got released to live TV, but it sure as hell was a sight to see.

Look my point is, anything can happen in this place. You can see a giant ghost want to turn everything into a penis and it could be considered normal around here.

And our protagonist, (Y/N), was sitting down at the couch of the church, completely bored out of his mind, playing Persona 5 Tactica.

Tatsumatsu: What's up, Author-Kun?

(Y/N): Hey Author-Kun. Been a minute.

It has my friends. It really has.

So anyways, Stocking returns from the kitchen, holding a plate with a slice of cake and a milkshake in both her hands, since she needed a refill on her sweet tooth again. She sat next to (Y/N) on the couch, watching as he tries to finish the current battle while taking a bite out of her cake.

Until...

Garterbelt: ANGELS!!! GET YOUR LAZY ASSES OVER HERE! WE GOT A SITUATION!!!

Garterbelt yells out from the other room, apparently trying to get you, Panty, and Stocking's attention. Panty doesn't seem to be happy though, with her being "productive" in the bedroom with a random guy he brought over.

Panty: GO FUCK YOURSELF GARTER IM BUSY!

Garterbelt: DON'T MAKE ME GO UP THERE AND DRAG THAT BOY TOY OUT OF THERE YOU BLOND BITCH!!!

Yeaaah you might wanna check it out for yourself dude. It's pretty important.

(Y/N): (sigh) Alright then. Might as well see what the man wants and get the shit over with.

Stocking: Yeah, I guess so.

(Y/N): (smiles) Let's go, Stocks.

You quickly paused the game and put your Switch on sleep mode. After entering the main hall, Garterbelt stood tall while beckoning the three of you to sit down. Panty, who seemed to be readjusting her dress and her hair, seems to be pretty fucking annoyed that she was being interrupted from her sexy time. Stocking seemed indifferent, more focused on her milkshake than anything. And you were bored out of your mind, with your itch of adventure was waiting to be scratched.

Garterbelt: Afternoon angels! And you too Adriel.

You just waved slightly.

Garterbelt: It seems like there's something out there that's causing a fucking ruckus with the heavenly orders! Apparently there's some sort of anomaly that not even the Heavens can't figure out.

He holds up a paper with red question marks written all over it.

(Y/N): That's... Kind of freaky.

Before you had a chance to question further, Panty interrupted you, still really annoyed.

Panty: Yeah? And what the fuck does that have to do with us? If they don't know what it is then we know for damn sure we don't.

Garterbelt: (pinches bridge of nose) By God's will, I swear to all things holy... (glares at Panty) Stupid bitch, if this shit ain't figured out then both you and Stocking won't be able to get more clues to get heaven coins!

(Y/N): But can't we just wait until a ghost starts rampaging to find them?

Garterbelt: You know how ghosts are nowadays! They're getting smarter, so some of them just hide in the dark like little pussies and prey on the more lesser known motherfuckers. (looks back at Panty) And LISTEN UP!!! If you don't solve this crisis, I swear on the unbreakable vow of Heaven that I'm kicking all of your asses out!

Stocking: What the fuck?! You can't be kicking US out because Panty ain't doing shit!

Garterbelt: Oh yes I can. My church, my rules. So you better get this bitch whore to come with you or you'll be saying goodbye to your life of luxury.

Panty: Okay okay fine, fucking christ. Even though I could give two shits about this place, I would at least want a room to bring my boys to. Coming is the least I can do.

Stocking: Both literally and metaphorically.

(Y/N): Panty, you aren't sitting around and making us do all of the shit.

Panty: I mean OBVIOUSLY. Who the fuck you think I am?

You and Stocking just sighed to yourselves, before you all agreed to solve this issue, mainly to have a roof over your heads.

Garterbelt: Good! Now listen closely, there has been a strange anomalous source of power in the more "calmer" side of Daten City. I had to add the quotation marks because barely any ghost wants to go there.

You all took a look at the projection screen to see a place you definitely haven't visited before ever since you've been here.

(Y/N): Any particular reason why there's no ghost activity here?

Garterbelt: Nah. Probably because it ain't populated as much as over in the main part of the city. Plus no one ever talks about that place, hence why you three haven't been sent there in particular for ghost repenting.

Panty: Yeah yeah so whatever is over there we need to fuck it up and we'll be back in business, gotcha.

Stocking: (finished up her milkshake) Whatever it is, we got (Y/N) by our side, so it'll be really easy.

(Y/N): (laughs slightly) You give me too much praise Stocking.

Garterbelt: Go forth, you three! I expect some good fucking news when yall get back.

And then the trio sets off in See Through, plowing through traffic and running red lights. Despite all of that, it still took around 15 minutes, despite Panty going well over the speed limit.

Once you arrived at the designated location, you took a look around. It seems... Really peaceful. Mainly because there's barely anyone around, just like Garterbelt said. Besides that though, you don't see anything that could be considered an issue or an anomaly.

(Y/N): Garter was right though. I can definitely sense something around here. It feels familiar...

Stocking: (raises eyebrow) Familiar?

(Y/N): Yeah. I can't put my finger on it though...

Panty: Ugh WHATEVER! (Y/N) just tell us where is the stupid bitch is so we can get the fuck out of here!

Stocking: Panty just hold your fucking tits, god damn! We don't even know what the hell we're going against!

Panty: Oh yeah? Well our answer isn't gonna fucking fall from the sky is it?!

Suddenly, almost comically, a giant dark portal appeared in the sky. The trio looked shocked as they looked above their heads to hear multiple people screaming. Three figures fall from the portal, and onto the ground in front of you.

(Y/N): What.

Stocking: The.

Panty: Fuck???

In front of them, in a pile, laid another Panty and Stocking. You weren't able to get a good look of the person at the bottom, since the other Anarchy sisters were on top of them.

But the fact that another Panty and Stocking are in front of you is already surreal.

Tatsumatsu: What the hell is going on?!

Other Stocking: Ugh... I definitely broke something...

Other Panty: FUCK that shit hurt. At least Cross was here to break our fall.

(Y/N): Cross, huh?

The other Panty and Stocking looked up curiously, only to have the exact same reaction as the original trio.

Other Stocking: What the hell?!

Other Panty: The fuck kinda mirror shit am I looking at right now?

???: Guys... I would like to breathe air please.

Other Panty: Oh... Right.

Other Stocking: Hehe... Sorry Cross.

They got off the squished man, and he finally got onto his feet, dusting the dirt off his clothes. You were also able to get a better look at him.

This "Cross" dude wore black jeans with a black and white jacket, with one side being black and white being the other. There was a symbol of a white angel on the black side of the jacket, while there's a black demon symbol on the white side. He also wore black and white shoes, and had a necklace with a silver cross and a red gem in the middle.

When he was able to get a look at the original trio, he was pretty damn shocked as well.

???: The hell?

(Y/N): I'm a bit confused as well.

You and Cross approached each other, and you were able to sense that familiar aura around him. Not only that, but his facial features almost looks exactly like yours. Not like a "sibling look-alike," but as if Cross was you in an alternate universe.

That's when it clicked, and you asked the important question.

(Y/N): What's your name? I know Cross must be an alias.

(Y/N): Uhh... Well, my name's (Y/N).

(Y/N): (claps hands together) AHA! I KNEW IT!

You quickly recomposed yourself, and cleared your throat.

(Y/N): Apologies. My name is (Y/N) too.

Both Pantys and Stockings looked very confused. How can there be two completely different people have the exact same name? Was it just a coincidence?

Cross looked at you, and he was able to tell that you also had many similar facial features as he does. He decided to comment about it.

(Y/N): You... Look alot like me.

(Y/N): That's the thing dude. I AM you.

(Y/N): What...? The fuck are you on about?

(Y/N): It's kind of complicated to explain. All you need to know is that I'm you in an alternative universe, with different abilities and all.

(Y/N): That's... Is that even possible?

(Y/N): Oh trust me my friend. It is. I've met many versions of myself before.

Tatsumatsu: Funnily enough, I've noticed many of the self inserts you've met start with "C" or "K". Which is oddly coincidental.

Your Stocking's eyes widened. She did remember you traveling across dimensions and such before. So what she sees in front of her, another Stocking, is just a different universe of herself?

(Y/N): Okay first off, (looks at the fourth wall) Author-Kun, can we switch the names up a bit? I don't want the readers to get confused on who's talking.

Yeah yeah, I gotcha.

(Y/N): Who the fuck are you talking to-

(Y/N): Your alias is Cross, right?

Cross: Yeah?

(Y/N): Good. We'll just call you by that from now on.

Cross: I'm just gonna assume for semantics and shit?

Adriel: Basically, yeah. Just call me Adriel, that's my alias name.

Cross: And how do we identify which Panty and Stocking is who?

Adriel: Author-Kun?

On it.

With a snap of your fingers, a projection of both your names appeared above your respective Panty and Stocking, as if they're labeled in a videogame. They looked at each other in bewilderment as they stared at each other's tags. Cross looked confused as all hell.

Cross: How did you...?

Adriel: Don't ask. It's better if you don't think about it too much.

Cross glanced at his two respective friends and shrugged.

(C) Panty: So, what the fuck is actually going on here?

(A) Panty: That's what I want to know. I was in the middle of fucking a guy's hot rod.

(C) Stocking: Of course you were.

Adriel: How about we start from the beginning? Cross, how did you all get here in the first place?

Cross: Well... Garterbelt told us that there was some supernatural ghost that we had to repent and shit, so I'd thought it would just be another day of Heaven coins collecting.

(C) Stocking: But when we actually got to the ghost, the fucker setted up a trap. It then sent us down that portal you saw.

(A) Stocking: That must've sucked.

(C) Stocking: Harder than Panty ever did.

(A) Stocking: Hah, nice.

(A) and (C) Panty: Fuck you too.

Adriel's Panty then took a glance at Cross, taking a real interest in him.

(A) Panty: You know, even though you look like Geek Boy Two over there, you actually look pretty handsome~ How about you and I-

(C) Panty: Fuck off bitch face, he's already sucked face with me.

Cross: I did not, thank you very much. And I was gonna say no anyways.

(A) Panty: Man you're no fun. You're just like Adriel, always rejecting and deflecting.

Adriel: I'm right here you know. (walks over to his Stocking) Besides, I'm with Stocking.

Despite her blush, she had a big smug smirk on her face that even made both Panties annoyed. Cross' Stocking was a bit shocked, but intrigued of how her other self got with Adriel.

Adriel: (sighs) Look, we're getting off topic here. Imma just speak to Cross off the side and figure out what we need to do from here.

Cross: Sounds good to me. Can we trust both you girls to behave?

(A) and (C) Panty: The fuck you think I am?

(A) and (C) Stocking: (exasperated sigh) We'll keep watch over them.

Adriel and Cross then walked over to the side, while their Panty and Stockings were interacting with one a other. When they're out of earshot, they faced towards each other.

Adriel: I guess I never properly greeted you Cross. Nice to meet you.

Cross: (smiles) Glad to at least someone has their head on their damn shoulders around here. Especially if it's an alternate version of myself.

(Y/N) "CROSS" (L/N) THE NEPHILIM OF DATEN CITY

Adriel: So... What's your story? Your half angel half demon or something?

Cross: I am actually. How did you-

Adriel: The jacket was a big giveaway my guy. That and you have a Cross necklace on you. I'm sure those two aren't just coincidental clothing choices.

Tatsumatsu: I mean there's also the fact that you just read his title.

Cross: Was it really that obvious? Huh... You're sharper than you look.

Adriel: (readjusts glasses) Hehe... What can I say? I always notice the little things.

Tatsumatsu: No you fucking don't.

Cross: Anyways yeah, for as far as I could tell, I don't remember much about my past. I've been trying to find clues about my mom and dad with Panty and Stocking. (crosses arms) What about you, what's your story?

Adriel: Well long story short, I was from another world. Got transported here due to my twin, who kidnapped my family. On a quest to save them, while getting stronger to eventually fight him.

Cross: Damn, I'm really sorry to hear about your family.

Adriel: It's fine. I'm having alot of fun making friends and fighting in the process.

Cross: What's with us having family issues?

Adriel: (shrugs) Beats me man. Alot of the "x male reader" stories have the tag "abused" or "neglected" in there somewhere in the title or description.

Cross: Wh-

Adriel: Again, don't think about it too much. I have the tendency to ramble on random shit.

Cross: (shrugs) Alright then, whatever you say. By the way, you said that you and Stocking were together. Are you...?

Adriel: Romantically with her? Yeah I am. What about you? Do Panty or Stocking tickle your fancy?

Cross: It's kinda complicated... They're both showing signs that they like me more than they let on, but I don't know how to handle the situation. For all I know I might make things fucking awkward as hell, and our friendship may go to shit.

Adriel: Hey man...

Adriel wraps his arm around Cross' shoulders, making sure he listens well.

Adriel: Whenever a situation is presented in front of you, all you need to do is to trust your gut. Doesn't matter what YOU think is right, it's more of what you believe in.

Cross: What I believe in, huh?

Adriel: Yeah man. You gotta do what your hearts what tells you to do. If you like Stocking, then do it. If you like Panty, I'm sure she's into you anyways, so go for it. Hell, if you like both of them then date 'em!

Cross: ...I guess you're right about that.

Adriel: See? You'll be fine man, I promise. Worse case scenario Panty and Stocking might try killing one another trying to get into your pants first. (laughs)

Cross: (sighs) Sounds about right.

Adriel: They're both care about you though, right?

Cross: To be honest, they both do. Especially Panty.

Adriel: Heh, as expected. She trying to get into your pants?

Cross: All the time. Even in my fucking sleep.

Adriel: Wait doesn't that qualify as rape though-

Cross: To be honest I've gotten used to it. She hasn't succeeded though.

Tatsumatsu: I would say that's a new definition of sexual harassment at that point.

Speaking of Panty, the two inserts turned their heads to see Cross' and Adriel's Pantys being held back by their respectful Stockings. Apparently they were going on about how Adriel's Panty was so down bad for Cross. Of course, Cross' Panty didn't like that, and wanted to put her counterpart in her place.

Cross: (sighs) I'm assuming your Panty didn't want your ass?

Adriel: (shrugs) Yeah, she did at first, but once I declined her offer she saw me as a Brief 2.0.

Cross: (pinches the bridge of nose) Sounds about right.

Both Pantys' yelling became louder and louder with each passing moment.

Adriel: We might wanna step in before they tear each other's hair out.

Cross: Would be for the best.

(scene break)

After Cross broke up the fight between the Pantys, they all went back to the church so Adriel could explain the situation to Garterbelt.

Adriel: ....and basically a ghost transported them over to our dimension, and now they're stuck here for the time being.

Garterbelt took a quick glance at Cross and his Panty and Stocking, of course being labeled by the projection of the tags made by yours truly. He crossed his arms and sighed.

Garterbelt: I guess this could also be connected to the anomaly of the Heavens... This truly is a predicament...

Cross: Got any ideas of what we can do?

Garterbelt: At the moment, no. I never heard of such a ghost being able to transport people into alternate dimensions. I'd would've called bullshit if I didn't see any of you.

Adriel: Well we gotta think of something. Otherwise Cross' Panty is gonna tear our Panty's hair out because she wanted to sleep with him.

Garterbelt: Well unless you got information on the fucking thing I can't do much.

Cross: Panty, Stocking. You remember anything? I was just tuning out that fucking ghost's monologue.

(C) Panty: Hell if I fucking know.

(C) Stocking: (shakes head) Not really.

Cross: (sighs and pinches nose) Great.

Adriel: What did the guy even look like?

Cross: It's like a some sort of naked guy, but he looked starry and some shit.

Adriel: Like a galaxy type pattern?

Cross: Yeah, that.

(A) Panty: Well all we gotta do is find the fucker, beat its ass, and we'll be done and I'll be back to my new boy toy.

(A) Stocking: You do realize that if we accidently get sucked into an alternate reality like those three, we have no way of getting back, right?

Adriel: (readjusts glasses) Not only that but we need to figure out how to send the Cross trio back home. We can't just repent the shit and expect them to poof back.

Cross: Which is something I've been wondering as well, to be honest.

Garterbelt: I'll see if I could find anything. Keep your eyes peeled or anything out of the ordinary.

Cross: Garterbelt, you do realize we're in Daten City right? Shit happens every week.

Adriel: For real.

Garterbelt: Whatever, schematics. Now get out of my church so I can figure this bullshit out.

Everyone except Garterbelt left the church, with everything now at a standstill. With Garterbelt looking for the ghost, now all they had to do is wait.

But Adriel wasn't gonna be boring and wait all day, that itch of excitement was bugging him all week, and he had to scratch it. Especially since Daten City has been a bit calm for a while.

Cross: So now what do we do? Not like we're gonna sit on our asses all day until something happens.

Adriel: Well... I was thinking we could spar in the meantime. I've been waiting for adventure all week, and I'm tired of just staying indoors and playing videogames.

Cross: Hmm...

Adriel: Besides, you're half angel and half demon, so you must be pretty strong.

Cross: You really just wanna spar huh?

Adriel: (nods excitedly)

(C) Stocking: Cross we shouldn't just spend our time doing shit. Besides, I know a place where-

Cross: Fine, let's spar then.

(C) Stocking: Wait what?

Cross: I wouldn't mind clashing some swords with him. (smirks) Besides, I've been a little stiff nowadays since our Daten City was peaceful for a while. So I wouldn't mind throwing a few hands now.

Adriel: Ah hell yeah! Firstly though... We should probably spar somewhere more open, since it'll be a bit easier to maneuver around.

(A) Stocking: Adriel, are you sure you wanna do this?

Adriel: Pshhh, relax Stocking. (waves hand dismissively) It's only a friendly spar, we're not actually gonna kill each other. Besides, this shouldn't take long.

Both Pantys were not really giving a fuck, but they had no choice but to follow you to a more secluded and more open area of Daten City. Both Panties and Stockings stood on the far edge of the clearing, while Adriel and Cross stood in front of each other.

(C) Panty: Cross, you got this shit in the bag.

(A) Panty: What? Okay, I know I've shitted on Adriel before, but I know for a fact he's gonna wipe the floor with Cross.

Oh yeah, by the way, if you're wondering how exactly both Panties and Stockings are gonna get all POVs of the fight, a giant screen was provided for them. Don't ask where it came from, just roll with it.

Adriel: Alright. This will be a no holds barred fight, and one round only. Victory will be declared when either you or I admit defeat. Either that, or if either side falls unconscious. Seem fair?

Cross: (nods) Seems so to me.

Adriel: Also don't worry about collateral problems. The city will just rebuild and fix itself the next day.

Cross: (cracks knuckles) Doesn't hurt to get a little crazy. You ready to go?

Adriel: Yeah I'm good. Also don't worry, I'll make sure I won't accidently kill you.

Cross: Bold of you to assume this'll be a one-sided match.

Adriel: Oh trust me, my guy. (smirks) I'll make sure to actually hold back so I won't humiliate you in front your Panty, Stocking, and the readers.

Cross: Pff... We'll see about that then.

As the inserts walked to the opposite sides of the clearing, Tats began speaking to you.

Tatsumatsu: Please don't actually kill him Adriel.

Adriel: Relax Tats, I won't. Besides we're doing this for fun.

Tatsumatsu: (sighs) If you say so.

Both Stockings stepped forward and smiled.

(C) Stocking: Alright fighters! Get ready!

(A) Stocking: Get set...!

Both Cross and Adriel smirked widely. Both Stockings then raised their fists into the air.

(C) and (A) Stocking: FIGHT!!!

Adriel: Blue Buster! To me!

As Adriel placed both of his fists together side by side, a gold light shines as he separates his hands, eventually manifesting into his bright blue longsword with a golden handle as he "unsheathes" his sword.

Cross: It's time, Intertwined Destiny!

Cross grabs his necklace, which was shining a mixture of black, gold, and red, and yanks it off his neck. The glowing necklace shines brightly before transforming into his sword.



INTERTWINED DESTINY

Adriel had to admit, he was a big fan of the sword's name, and even more impressed at its design.

As the inserts stood still on the spacious battlefield, Adriel decided to make the first move and dashed at Cross.

Adriel: ATAH!

Cross was able to block the sword strike, and the two engaged into some sword clashing. Sparks flew into the air and a giant smirk could be seen on Adriel's face.

This continued for another thirty seconds or so, until Cross catches Adriel off guard with a fast left hook and a quick jump kick into his chest.

Adriel was able to regain his breath quickly and saw Cross darted at him with his sword out.

Adriel: Invincibility!

A giant (F/C) shield materialized in his off hand, and was able to block Cross' stab. He then used the moment to push him away. They engaged in swordplay once more, but Cross wasn't able to get any clean hits on Adriel, while the latter struggled to balance both his offense with his defense.

Invincibility dissipated momentarily as Blue Buster then began materialized small floating pebbles and rocks orbiting around the blade. With a quick headbutt to stun Cross, Adriel raised his off hand and yelled out:

Adriel: Impasse!

A giant stone wall rose from the ground behind Cross. He turned around to see what the sound was, but Adriel took this opportunity to strike him, causing him to collide with the wall, destroying it and dealing double damage to him.

Cross shrugged the dust off of him, but he had a giant smug and confident smile.

Cross: So you can control elements to your will then? What are you, some kind of knockoff bender?

Adriel: Psh... I mastered all the elements, so they call ME the Avatar.

The former laughed, and with a burst of speed, landed his fist into the latter's stomach, completely catching him off guard.

He then dashed into the nearby forest, dragging Adriel with him, to which he rammed into couple of trees. Adriel felt the hard wood crushing into his back, and hoo boy that ain't gonna feel well tomorrow morning.

Gritting his teeth, Adriel kicked the side of Cross' head to stop the onslaught of trees on his back, launching the nephilim into a nearby bush.

Water particles surrounded his hand as he quickly healed himself, just in time too as Cross jumps back into the fray and began swinging his sword. Blue Buster and Intertwined Destiny clashed against one another while accidently slicing some trees in half.

Adriel: How about some of this?!

With his water elemental still activated, he jumped back and unleashed a giant stream of water from his palm. Cross was able to raise his arms in time to block and resist the incoming attack.

Cross: Hah! You're just making my clothes wet!

Adriel: That's the idea!

Cross: Wait wha-

Before Cross could react, Blue Buster became electrified with yellow and purple sparks. Adriel then stabbed his sword into the ground, yelling out;

Adriel: Thunder wave!!

A wave of electricity rocketed towards Cross. He didn't have enough time to react as he then got electrocuted, while the damage was amplified because of the earlier water attack.

After a moment of shock, Cross' hair comically was sticking up on all directions, and his body was charred to a crisp.

With cartoon logic however, he just shook his body rapidly to dust off the ash and his hair turned back to normal.

Cross: Damn, not bad! I'm getting fired up now!

A smirk grew on Adriel's face as Cross dashed forward once more. Metal clashing filled the air, and you can clearly see both inserts enjoying themselves.

Adriel however got a little cocky and tried to sweep Cross' legs. The latter saw this coming and jumped over just in time. He quickly got the upper hand and began slashing at Adriel.

A few clean cuts in, and the nephilim grabbed the elementalist's shirt and yeeted his ass into the air. He then jumped to the skies and began overwelming the boy with powerful strikes.

And with a Donkey Kong forward air, the elementalist got sent straight back into the Earth, tasting some dirt.

Cross tried to fall in for a follow-up attack, but his eyes widened to see Adriel standing up again, pointing his off hand at him.

Adriel: Aight bruh you gotta chill!

And just like that, a giant ice beam was quickly able to subdue the nephilim into a giant ice block, hilariously leaving only his head open.

Cross: "Chill?" Really?

Adriel: It was fitting!

Tatsumatsu: That was so bad dude.

Ignoring Tats' remark, he pulled back his fists and began his punch onslaught.

Adriel: DORA RA RA RA RA RA RA RA RA RA RA RA RA RA RA RA RA RA RA RA RA RA RA RA RA RA RA RA RA RA RA RA RA RA RA RA RA RA RA RA RA RA RA RA RA RA RA RA RA RA RA RA! DORA!!!

Cross was broken free of the ice block, sent flying in pain as he landed a couple meters away from Adriel. The former coughed, but he had a determined grin.

Cross: Man you hit fucking hard. Guess I gotta get serious a little bit.

Adriel: Oh shit?

Cross raised one of his hands, with angel halo shining above him. His other hand was pointed towards the ground, with a dark pentagram glowing below him.

A sigh left his lips, and both of his arms swung in their opposite directions, causing a giant pillar of light to engulf Cross. Adriel puts one of his arms out to fight the wind that was pushing him back.

But he was smiling the whole way, knowing that he was getting that thrill and excitement he was craving for.

Amidst the pillar of light, four wings pierced and dissipated the glowing beam and revealed two angel and devil wings on Cross' back.

Cross: Oh pathetic spirit born from those stuck between heaven and hell... May the terrifying power from the child created from the union between angel and devil strike you down with vengence and furious wrath, breaking your shackles and returning you from whence you came. RETRIBUTION HAS COME!

As the beam of light disappears, Cross' now gains a new look. Both of his eyes were now silver, and he has a halo and devil horns on his head. Adriel whistles softly as he witnesses Cross' power being amplified.

Adriel: Okay... That speech, was really fucking coo-

The Blue Eyed Blade had no chance to even breathe, as his breath was literally taken from him as Niphilim shoulder bashed him in his chest. He then flew into Daten City and collided into multiple buildings, letting Adriel feel the wake of his power.

Bystanders were freaking the hell out and were trying to run the fuck away from the inserts' battle, and Cross was able to slam Adriel into the ground of a city intersection, leaving a small crater.

Cross: Heh... How was one that for ya, bitch?

After finally taking a breath, and spitting some blood onto the ground, Adriel can only smile determinedly.

Adriel: Hahaha... Now we're talking.

Blue Buster was summoned back in Adriel's hand and he attempted to slash Cross at his side, but the latter was able to summon his own blade in time to block the incoming attack. This gave Adriel the opportunity to jump back from the crater and summon his fire elemental.

Adriel: Things are starting to heat up now!

He charged at Cross with his flame infused blade, and clashed swords once again. Sparks flew, and the heat of Blue Buster intensified the feeling of the battle.

Adriel however realized that he was at a disadvantage in terms of strength, since Cross was able to shrug off his strikes more easier and parrying his slashes with less difficulty. Considering he was only human against a half and half angel devil, he had to switch tactics.

After another failed attempt at an upward slash, Adriel jumped backwards and pointed his sword at Cross.

Adriel: Flamethrower!

A giant pillar of flames materialized and darted straight towards Cross. The man just smirked and stood still, crossing his arms.

...

And then when the fire dispersed, all Adriel was able to see was a slightly steaming Cross, as if nothing even happened to him.

Adriel: Shit, that did nothing!

Cross jumped forward, ready to engage Adriel again. The elementalist held his shield up in possibility to block the incoming strike, but the niphilim surprised him when he struck the side of Adriel's body, causing him to flinch in pain and drop his shield. He then took this opportunity to kick the shield away, which disappears into shiny sparkles mid-air since it was out of Adriel's range.

Cross then does a hard roundhouse kick, causing Adriel to fly back a significant distance. As latter tried to regain his breath, the former was already running in, about to attack.

Tatsumatsu: Adriel! You need to activate me! Quickly!

Adriel: Nah nah nah I got this! WHIRLWIND!!!

Tatsumatsu: Adriel no stop I fucking hate that mo- OHHHH SHITTTT!

Adriel spun like a beyblade, with his fiery sword out. Cross held his blade up to block the incoming attack, but it was significantly pushing him back.

This continued on for another minute or so. Just as Cross thought he was gonna get overpowered, Adriel began to slowly stop spinning. His pupils were comically spiraling.

Tatsumatsu: Ughh... Fuck. I feel like I'm aboutta throw up. I fucking hate you Adriel this is all your fault.

The elementalist couldn't say anything as he dashed into a nearby trashcan and began vomiting into it. Cross walked up slowly, showing a bit of concern.

Cross: Hey man, you good?

Adriel weakly gave a thumbs up as he could be heard hurling his afternoon lunch into the bin.

...

After a moment, Adriel spat out the leftover saliva in his mouth into the trash can. He then stood right back up, as if nothing happened.

Adriel: Alright, I'm good now!

Cross: Well now, don't you bounce back quick?

Adriel: (sighs) It appears that you're overpowering me, but don't think this is a confession of defeat my guy, I'm just getting started.

Adriel reached into Tatsumatsu's pocket and pulled out one of Stocking's stockings, and a giant smirk grew on his face.

Cross: Wait isn't that-

A giant surge of power filled the air, and a blinding white light surrounds Adriel. The wind pushes Cross back, and he holds his arm up, wanting to see through the bright light.

Adriel: Oh poor soul trapped in this hellish purgatory, allow thyself to be purged and returned from whence you came. Let the fiery flames of my sword burn your ethereal chains. I shall be the one to restore balance between the Heavens above, Hell below, and the world beyond! Prepare yourself... For the elemental wrath of the BLUE EYED BLADE!!!

The bright light finally dies down, and Cross was able to see what happened. Adriel was now levitating a foot in the air with a white glow emanating from his body. He also gained angelic wings and a halo, but it was more... Holographic. As if it was just being digitally presented. He was also able to dual weild both Stripe I and Blue Buster now as well.

Adriel: Life Fiber... Ten No Dai Sanji!

Tatsumatsu: Hell yeah!

Cross' eyes slightly widened in surprise, but he eyed Adriel with an impressed expression as the latter gripped both of his swords confidently.

Cross: Well well. Shouldn't be surprised that an alternate version of myself should have access to the divine. Now things are getting interesting.

Cross took this chance to charge at Adriel, ready to gut him in the stomach again, but Adriel anticipating this. After momentarily returning Blue Buster into his hammerspace, he caught Cross' fist with his hand, causing a massive gust of wind to roar around them.

Cross: Oh shit?

Adriel: Now I'm ready to get serious.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xnoJ_0lk_5w

The elementalist quickly kneed the niphilim in his chest, causing him to let out an abrupt exhale of breath. He then took the blunt side of Stripe I and swung upward, causing Cross to soar upward. Resummoning Blue Buster, Adriel stomped onto the ground to give him a boost to fly towards the air, allowing his angelic wings to grant him flight. Cross got a hold of himself and gripped onto Intertwined Destiny, and began to try to counter Adriel's onslaught on slashes.

But with Adriel's newfound speed, and the fact he's also dual wielding, Cross had great difficulty trying to block and parry most of his attacks, causing him to get slashed.

Adriel: DORYIAH!

With both swords, Adriel swung downwards and knocked Cross back a couple meters away into a building.

Cross: Gah... Shit.

He cracked his neck and raised his hand into the sky.

Cross: May the holy spirit of God grant me his blessing! GOD SPEED!

With his eyes glowed gold and his body surged with power, Cross darted towards the elementalist with extraordinary agility. Adriel's eyes widened, and he no time to react as Cross slashed him after each pass by him. Adriel kept trying to hit him with both of his swords, but he kept hitting his afterimage.

Adriel: SHIT he's fast!

Tatsumatsu: Focus Adriel! You got this!

Adriel: Right!

And with that, after jumping back, Adriel activated his angelic ability.

Adriel: ANGELIC OVERSEER!

As if he was in a videogame, everything began to slow down significantly, as if he was in a quick time event. His now blue eyes locked onto Cross, and Adriel was now able to see Cross' predicted movements. The elementalist dodged all of Cross' attacks with ease, and he finally countered with a double slash on his back before Angelic Overseer deactivated.

Cross, after a few meters flying, recovered from the counterattack. He then turned around, raised his sword, and slashed downwards and across to create a giant red and white energy slash that went flying towards Adriel.

Cross: Cross Slash!

Adriel sees the giant energy slash, and he got an idea. He looks at the fourth wall and smirks.

Adriel: Hey readers, check this out! I perfected this move recently.

Blue Buster was engulfed in flames, and Adriel decided to do the exact same thing Cross did, causing a giant cross of flames to fly at Cross' energy slash.

Adriel: Cross Fire Hurricane Variation!

The two attacks collided, causing a massive cloud of smoke to fly in the air.

Adriel: (coughs) Okay, that was pretty cool.

Tatsumatsu: Cross definitely knows how to entertain an audience.

Adriel: Seriously. We should definitely grab something to eat together after thi-

Before Adriel could finish that sentence, a black and silver blade almost slashed at his face. A mere centimeter was avoided before he took Stripe I and parry the second incoming slash, pushing Cross away.

It was then roar of an engine was heard. In the blinding smoke, Cross jumps out of the dust riding his hell cycle, Calavier. Adriel jumps into the air to avoid being ran over.



Adriel: Daaaamn that bike looks kinda fresh! Two can play at that game though!

Adriel then pulls from his hammerspace a small metallic box with a button on top. After pressing the button and throwing it onto the ground, the box then begins to morph into a kick ass sports bike.



If this bike looks familiar, this is actually the bike that Aikuro Mikisugi gave to Adriel during the events of Double Bladed Romance. He never asked for it back, so Adriel just took it for his own.

It stands perfectly upright as Adriel land onto the seat and began revving it up. He then took off after Cross into the deeper parts of the city.

You eventually caught up to Cross, who turned to your direction with a smirk.

Cross: (whistles) Not bad! Let's see if you can keep up!

Cross proceeds to drift over towards Adriel, holding Intertwined Destiny. The latter summoned Blue Buster once more and got ready to fight.

Tatsumatsu: Adriel! Eyes on the damn road! You're gonna crash into something!

Adriel: I have a bigger issue here Tats!!

Adriel moved his body to the side just in time to dodge the incoming blade, and decided to swerve in to get the upper hand.

The two inserts continued to clash their swords, while driving their motorcycles way above the speed limit. They also have to dodge cars and pedestrians walking alongside the road.

Both of them eventually ended up driving in the more empty side of the city, which allowed the inserts to engage in another round of swordplay while riding their motorcycles.

That's when Adriel swerved away from Cross and pointed his now flaming sword at him, ready to shoot out burning flames at niphilim. Cross saw this however, and gripped onto his motorcycle handles.

And when the flames were shot from his, Cross used his angelic and demonic wings to lift himself and his motorcycle to fly above. Adriel's eyes widened, but he tried to aim upwards to hit him, but Tats realized that he was just gonna land on the elementalist instead.

Tatsumatsu: Ayo Adriel watch yo jet!

Adriel quickly realized what she meant, and decelerated before he got squashed. Cross however took this opportunity to follow up, not giving Adriel time to recover.

Cross: Cross Slash!

Adriel: SHIT!

The elementalist barely swerved out of the way to dodge the incoming energy blast, but he ended up tilting his cycle too far, which made him about to fall off. He quickly pressed the red button on the right handle to revert his cycle to a cube, to which he then bounced up high in the air after hitting the ground. He gritted his teeth and held his hand out, using his holographic wings to fly.

Adriel: Say FREEZE bitch!

He then shoots out an icy frost beam, completely covering the road with a slippery layer of ice. Cross' eyes widened as he tried to regain control of his hell cycle, but fails miserably as he crashes into a building, ending up inside.

Adriel quickly handed in front of the hole of the building, seeing a giant pile of rubble covering Cross.

Adriel: Ready to cry uncle yet?

Just then, a giant dark red light blared from the debris, creating a blast of wind that made Adriel stab his sword into the ground to stabilize himself.

After a good thirty seconds, the light and wind died down, revealing Cross, having an unsettling smile. His angelic wings and halo were now more dimmer, and had a glowing red aura. His arms and legs were encased with dark red flames.

And in an instant, Cross appeared in front of Adriel and punched him at the side of his face.

Cross: You first.

Adriel: Ghk...!

The niphilim kneed the elementalist, causing him to fly away through multiple buildings. The latter couldn't even pause to groan in pain because the former was already following up, about to smash his head into the pavement with a flaming fist. He rolls out of the way just in time, quickly summoning his electric elemental to counterattack.

Adriel: Thunderbolt!!

A giant bolt of lightning strikes Cross, but he quickly shrugged it off after being momentarily electrocuted. He turns around and dashed with Intertwined Destiny to engage. Adriel quickly summoned both Blue Buster and Stripe I and fought back.

The inserts engaged with swordplay once more, this time being almost evenly matched.

Tatsumatsu: Adriel! Focus, my guy!

Adriel's Thoughts: I know I know! I'm trying to think of something here!

The elementalist tried multiple strategies to break Cross' guard, including using different elements back to back, but Cross always bounced back on guard. The fight continued in the air, flying away from Daten City and towards the open field where they both started.

It was then Adriel let out one slip up, falling for Cross' fakeout, which gave him the opportunity to push forward and strike the elementalist's exposed side. He used the handle of Intertwined Destiny to send Adriel upward, going in for a combo slash attack. The niphilim then dunked Adriel's ass into the ground, forming a crater under the elementalist.

Cross: I'M FINISHING THIS!!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4gzIL8_G4Xs

(2:14)

He used his devil and angel wings to fly into the air, soaring high into the sky, nearing the exosphere.

Cross looks down at Earth, smirked widely, almost sadistically, and began his descent back to the ground, ready to end this fight. His arms that were encased with flames burned brightly, as if he was a comet hurling towards the Earth.

HEAVEN AND HELL: STAR GUN METEOR

Meanwhile, Adriel was on the ground, groaning to himself while wiping some blood off his face.

Tatsumatsu: Adriel, get up. Cross is aboutta knock your lights out.

The elementalist looks up to see a small red dot, knowing exactly what it was. He just chuckled and readjusted his glasses.

Adriel: Heh... And his theme is playing too? Man, this is gonna be interesting.

Tatsumatsu: What are you gonna do?

Adriel: Well, what else? I'm aboutta put him in his place real quick. We weren't synced at all anyway.

Tatsumatsu: (sighs) You're always too cocky Adriel.

Adriel: I said it was gonna be one-sided if I activated you from the start.

Tatsumatsu: I hate to say this... But you're right.

Adriel: Besides, this is a special chapter. I wanted to give the readers some good content to enjoy.

Well, I'm sure they're happy to see you in general, my guy.

After cracking his neck and his knuckles, he dissipated both of his swords. He then summoned his fire elemental, to which it burns brightly in his dominant hand. As Cross gets closer and closer to Earth, Adriel gets into the zone and activates stage one of his kamui.

Adriel: Let's fucking do this, Kamui Tatsumatsu!

Tatsumatsu: Understood!

Adriel: Alright Cross... If you wanna finish this, THEN BRING IT!!!

He stomps into the ground, propelling himself upward towards the niphilim. Pulling his now fiery fist back, the elementalist gritted his teeth, ready to REALLY hurt Cross this time.

The latter saw the former begin flying up towards him, and he extended his fist, ready to knock Adriel's lights out.

Adriel: FALCON PUUUNNNCCHHHHH!!!!!

Cross: RAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!!

Their fists connected, and a blinding light consumed the skies, and a giant shockwave of wind blasted away all the clouds in the sky. Both Pantys and Stockings looked at the spectator screen in shock, waiting for the light to die down to see what happened.

And after a minute, the light dies down, and we see the two inserts falling from the sky. They crashed down into the ground, and a cloud of dust flew into the air.

(stop music)

Seeing this, the angels rushed into the scene, to see if their respective insert is alright.

Adriel was mostly alright. Nothing too noteworthy in terms of damage on him. Well... Except the fact that his dominant arm was completely charred, including Tatsumatsu's sleeve. He was breathing heavily, turning his head to the side to see the said charred arm. Ten No Dai Sanji was deactivated and he was now back in his base form.

Cross, on the other hand, was burnt and steaming. His demonic and angelic powers were deactivated, and he was completely devoid of any energy left to fight.

The two inserts laid parallel to each other in silence, with only the sound each other's breathing breaking the silence.

Until Cross spoke up.

Cross: I'll admit... You're tougher than you look. And you hit hard as shit.

Adriel: Heh... Thanks.

Cross: I concede. You win.

Adriel laughs weakly as he raises his non-charred hand into the air with victory in his eyes.

Adriel: Hell yeah. Wooooo....!

Tatsumatsu: I'm proud of you Adriel. But FUCK this wound is hurting like a bitch.

Adriel: It is what it is Tats. It hurts like hell.

Cross: To be honest I didn't know you had it in ya. So you really were holding back huh?

Adriel: I wanted a challenge, and to have fun too.

Cross: (sighs) To us both.

???: CROSS!!!

???: ADRIEL!!

Adriel turned his head to the left to see both Stockings and Panties running towards him and Cross. He can only smirk, knowing that he can gloat that he was victorious in this fight.

Cross' Panty and Stocking kneeled down next to him, basically bombarding with questions asking if he's alright. Meanwhile Adriel's Panty and Stocking looked impressed as all hell. But his Stocking was looking worried that his entire arm was charred.

(A) Stocking: Are you okay?

Adriel: Better than ever. My arm hurts like a bitch but I'm doing great.

(A) Panty: I'll admit, that was pretty fucking entertaining to watch. Not as good as a good fuck, but at least it wasn't a waste of time.

???: I agree. However, it's a shame that we'll have to put an end to this nonsense.

Despite being weak, both inserts, Pantys and Stockings turned their head towards the source of the voice, and they saw two figures. Cross eyes flared up in anger, seeing who it was.

Cross: YOU!

???: Ah, seems like you never forgotten about me.

???: Us.

???: Doesn't fucking matter we're the same person dumbass. Semantics.

And right on schedule, Garterbelt pops his afro-head out of nowhere, yelling;

Garterbelt: ANGELS!!! THE GHOST IS HERE!

Adriel: GAH, SHIT! I told you to not fucking do that!

Cross: And you're a bit late Garter, they were here before you.

Ignoring the two of you, Garterbelt continued.

Garterbelt: The stars align in a way where fate can bring two people a dimension across together. With these two, these two come from a star that died out, no longer shining in the sky! Seeking revenge, they want to make sure they'll be remembered by making an impact on this sinned world!

Adriel: So you're telling me these two bitches are a ghost of a star?

Cross: That seems kind of a stretch to me.

Adriel: To be honest I wouldn't even be a surprise if Author-Kun thought of that shit up on the spot.

Cross: To be fair, almost anything can become a ghost at this point.

(A) Panty: Well whatever! So all we gotta do is repent this bitch and send these fuckers back from whence they came.

(C) Panty: And with that, we'll be back riding some nice big sausages.

(C) & (A) Stocking: (sighs) Sex is all you're gonna think about, isn't it?

The angels got ready to transform, and-

...

Oh, right... I should probably name these two fuckers huh? Umm...

Oh, I got it.

MORNING STAR

By the way, they're labeled respectively depending on which dimension they're from. You're welcome.

(A) Morning Star: Tch... What a pain in the ass. Wasn't expecting to throw hands today.

(C) Morning Star: Well whatever! Those bitches were weak anyway! We'll be sure to shine brightly on this planet!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lw0sAKVaB0w

(A) & (C) Panty and Stocking: Oh wicked spirit born of a lost soul in a limbo, recieved judgment from the garb of the Holy Virgin, cleansed of worldly impurities, return to Heaven and Earth!

The two duo's transformed into their angelic forms, wielding their weapons and pointing at the Morning Stars.

(C) Panty: Alright motherfucker you're going down. This'll be for wasting my time in this damn alternate dimension.

(C) Morning Star: (cackles) We'll see about that bitch face!

(A) Morning Star: Yeah let's get 'em!

(C) Panty: Other me, let's go!

(A) Panty: (rolls eyes) Alright bitch I can handle myself thank you!

(A) Stocking: Think you can keep up?

(C) Stocking: Hah, try me.

The angels lunged in, engaging the the two Morning Stars. But let's cut away from them real quick, and see how the two inserts were doing.

(stop music)

The both of you were able to sit up, watching both of their respective angel sisters fight, still recovering from the sparring.

Cross: Huh... You know, despite us being completely different, our Panty and Stocking are still the same.

Adriel: (sighs) Yeah... They're still affecting our lives though, just like how we're affecting theirs.

They sat in silence for a moment, taking in the breath after a fresh battle.

Cross: You know, you're pretty good with that sword of yours.

Adriel: Thanks. You're not too shabby yourself.

Cross: (smirks) I guess being a Niphilim has its perks.

Adriel: (chuckles) Yeah, being an elemental swordsman has its own perks as well.

Cross: You know, it's crazy to think that we're the same person from different dimensions.

Adriel: (shrugs) To be honest, it is kind of surreal. I mean I wasn't expecting to meet another different me from an alternate universe today.

Cross: That's true. And I wasn't expecting to leave my own dimension today either.

Adriel: New surprises every single day, my friend.

Now back to the angels, they were evenly matched with the Morning Stars. Neither of them can land any significant blows.

However, the Morning Stars had one more bitch move up their sleeve.

(C) Morning Star: Shit...! We can't get any openings!

(A) Morning Star: Nah nah we ain't losing to these shitheads yet. Let's do the thing!

(C) Morning Star: Huh? What thi- OH RIGHT. Yeah yeah I gotcha.

Cross' eyes widened as he felt a familiar aura in the area. It's the same aura when him and his angels were being swooped out from his dimension. And since there were two of them, their combined powers could cause a greater chaos to the city.

Cross: SHIT! They're gonna pull that portal shit again!

They were basically gonna literally "Aku" the entire city, basically banishing them to the next unfortunate dimension.

Now why is this important? Well, it may causes problems for yours truly. Lemme explain.

Let's just say, theoretically, that the next dimension is of the canon timeline. The timeline with no male/female insert whatsoever. It's basically the real and original timeline.

If theoretically, the canon timeline was to be altered in anyway, it will alter the course of events of all other insert timelines that Adriel knows or doesn't know. In a nutshell, I'm pretty sure Adriel's dilemma of finding his brother will be the least of his worries right now, since the rest of the insert multiverse is gonna go to shit.

Tatsumatsu: Holy shit... It's that serious?

Yep. And even though there could be thousands of insert universes out there, the chance of encountering the canon timeline are never zero.

So you might wanna do something fast before those two actually suck everyone out of this planet.

Adriel: I know I KNOW I'm on it!!

Cross looks at Adriel, rummaging his backpack that seemed to appear out of thin air. And the latter was struggling, considering he's searching with one arm.

Adriel: Come on... Come on... Where the hell is it...? AH! There we go!

Adriel: Quick, eat this!



Adriel passed the bean to Cross, to which he looked extremely confused.

Cross: What the fuck is thi-

Adriel: Just eat it dammit!

Not having any other option, the niphilim shrugs, and pops the senzu bean into his mouth. After he swallowed it, his eyes widened as his energy came rushing back to him in a massive wave. He also looked at his body to see that all of his battle wounds were healed. Adriel smirked when Cross looked up to see the same happened to the former, since his once charred hand and arm has instantly healed.

Cross: Holy shit... That was...

Adriel: Pretty convenient, huh? Too bad these things take ages to grow. Be lucky I had some on me. Now come on, we can't be playing with our dicks here.

Cross: You're just full of surprises, huh?

Adriel: Yeah alot of people tell me that.

The duo rushed into the scene just in time, since the two Morning Stars were just about to open the massive portal. The angels were trying everything to interrupt the two ghosts, but nothing seems to be affecting them.

(A) Stocking: God DAMMIT!! What the hell is this shit?!

(C) Panty: It's like nothing can hurt this fucker!

Adriel's Morning Star then proceeds to swipe their right hand horizontally, shooting an energy blasts that knocks the four angels back. As they lay in pain, they could only watch helplessly as the two Stars began charging up.

(C) Morning Star: (laughs maniacally) Yes!! This is it!!

(A) Morning Star: These angel's luck is aboutta be BURNT OUT!! Say goodbye to this shitty city!

However, a bright light shines over in the opposite direction, the two Stars turned in confusion to see the silhouettes of the two inserts standing in the bright light.

Cross: Two poor souls...

Adriel: Landed in this hellish purgatory...

Cross: Let the child born from the angel and devil shatter your shackles...

Adriel: And the fiery flames of the elementalist's sword burn your ethereal chains...

Their swords unsheathe, shining somehow more brightly than their glowing aura.

Cross: Return from whence you came from the skies above!

Adriel: From Heaven and Hell, to the world beyond!

Adriel and Cross: RETRIBUTION HAS COME, MOTHERFUCKERS!!

Both Pantys and Stockings iniyially looked shocked, but grinned and smirked to see their respective insert ready to kick ass. Surely they must do better than what they were doing, right?

(A) Morning Star: Tch... Fucking pain in the asses.

(C) Morning Star: I'll handle this, go ahead and stall 'em.

(A) Morning Star: You read my mind.

Cross' Morning Star proceeds to leave the rest to Adriel's counterpart, dashing in towards the inserts.

(C) Morning Star: Alright bitches show me what you go-

Before he could even blink, a white flash blinded him, and before he knew it, he was sliced into a bazillion pieces.

Cross and Adriel: Repent.

After the cold word escaped the inserts' lips, the Star is immediately cried out in pain and violently exploded, ceasing to exist. And of course, the two inserts faced away from the exploding ghost.

Because cool guys don't look at explosions.

Cross proceeds to stick his arm out, grabbing six heaven coins that fell from the sky.

The remaining Star looked absolutely flabbergasted, terrified almost. As the inserts made eye contact with the former, it shook its head and glared at the two males.

(A) Morning Star: You know what, fuck this shit, I ain't even gonna be trolling anymore.

Instead of using the remaining power that was supposed to wipe Daten City away, Morning Star then absorbed the power, causing his body to start glowing gold.

Oh yeah, since the other Morning Star is dead now there's not really a reason to label him with "(A)" anymore.

Morning Star: I don't give a damn about this city anymore! First I'll kill you, then those stupid angels!

Tatsumatsu: Pff... As if we'll let that happen.

Adriel: Cross, with me.

Cross: Heh... No need to tell me twice.

The two inserts dashed in, and went toe to toe with Morning Star, who was going in and throwing hands.

When Morning Star shot yellow starry projectiles, Adriel follows up with his icy shards to repel it. When the former goes on the defensive, Cross made sure to follow up with his demonic side. No matter what happened though, Morning Star couldn't take advantage of any of the inserts' disadvantages. They both covered all of their bases and made sure the bitch didn't land any significant hits.

It was an even figh- Well... Not exactly.

Adriel mostly holding back due to not actually wanting to kill the fucker yet, since he needed to send Cross back home.

As for Cross... Well he wasn't gonna let a shithead that removed him from his dimension left off that easily, so he wanted to REALLY hurt 'em.

And so he did.

Despite the power boost, Morning Star can't exactly do anything when Adriel pulls out Invincibility, and blocking his strikes. That and the fact that Cross was hitting HARD with Intertwined Destiny.

After the whole scuffle, Morning Star was on the ground, breathing heavily. Adriel held his arm out in front of Cross, reminding him that he needed the bitch to return home.

He sighed, but nodded, and let Adriel do the negotiating.

Morning Star: Ghh.... Man this shit hurts so fucking bad.

He coughed up some sort of starry liquid, which I would assume was ghost blood.

...

Do they even have blood?

Adriel: What are you gonna expect when you pull the horns of a bull, asshat?

Morning Star: ...

Adriel: So here's what's gonna happen. You gonna send Cross and his friends back home, and then you're gonna give me those damn heaven coins when I repent your ass.

He spits blood on the ground before looking back up at Adriel.

Morning Star: And I refuse? What, are ya gonna kill me?

Adriel: Trust me buddy, it'll be better if just do what I say. Either that you get humiliated by those four.

Adriel points his thumbs towards his and Cross' Pantys and Stockings, who looked like they were aboutta beat him to death and utter humiliate him.

Morning Star sighed in defeat, and he finally conceded, wanting to at least keep the last bit of dignity left.

Morning Star: Okay okay, fine. Fucking christ. God, I'm gonna be the fucking laughing stock in hell.

Adriel: There's more pitiful ghost in hell my guy, trust me.

Adriel turned around and walked to Cross. The latter looked confused for a second before he winced in pain as the former grabbed his ear.

Cross: Bro what the hell?!

Adriel: Oi, stand still won't ya?!

A magnifying glass came out from his hammerspace, and Adriel looked closely at the tip of Cross' ear.

Adriel: Lemme see... It's gotta be around here somewhere... Ah, there we go.

The Blue Eyed Blade placed this magnifying glass back into his hammer space while letting go of Cross' ear, who was rubbing said ear. The former turned towards Morning Star once more.

Adriel: Dimension C-5640.

Morning Star: (sighs) It'll take me a minute or two to open the shit up. Gimme a moment.

Morning Star turns around, beginning to manifest the remaining of his powers into his hands.

And while they did that, the camera pans over to the two inserts talking to each other, while their respective angels stood by them.

Cross: So what the hell is grabbing my ear for?

Adriel: Looking for your bar code.

Cross: Bar code? The fuck you think I am some sort of product from the store?

Adriel: It literally is what it is my guy. It's a code that's used to identify which universe you belong to. Be lucky I knew this information otherwise we be stuck here figuring some shit out. Here, check mine out if you don't believe me.

Adriel brought back out the magnifying glass from before and handed over to Cross. He then tries to check your ea-

Adriel: Not that one. The other one.

Cross: Should've said that earlier.

Checking your ear, and after a moment of looking, his eyes widened as there was an indeed a barcode with the code of the universe he was from, or currently in rather.

Cross: Dimension C-317... Damn, you were right...

Cross' Panty and Stocking leaned in to take a look. Adriel just smirked.

Adriel: Yep. Another version of me showed this to me, which is why I know.

Tatsumatsu: Kiru calls you more of an acquaintance more than anything honestly.

Adriel: In anycase, it's a thing only us inserts will understand.

Morning Star: Yo crater shits. Portal's open.

Cross then approaches the portal, and nods confidently, sensing the familiarity of his aura in the portal.

Cross: Yep. This definitely our way home.

Adriel: Well I guess this is it then. A shame, I wanted to grab something to eat with ya.

Cross: (laughs) Don't worry. Maybe some other time.

A thought then emerged in Cross' mind.

Cross: Then again... Will we ever see each other again?

Adriel: Trust me my guy. I'm sure if your author decided another crossover, then I'm positive we'll meet again.

Cross: What do me-

He pauses, but he laughs a little and shook his head.

Cross: You know what, it doesn't matter. I'll be sure to see you again once the stars align.

Adriel: (smirks) You better be stronger by then.

Adriel: Oh yeah remember what I told you. About your Panty and Stocking?

Cross: (blushes) Yeah. We'll see what happens.

Adriel: Good luck to you my guy. Ya got this.

And with a smirk from Cross, he and his angel sisters waves goodbye before entering the portal, before it disappears behind them.

The original trio stood there, quite frazzled from the day they experienced. The holographic projections of Adriel's name faded, as there was no use for them anymore. I also shifted Adriel's name back to (Y/N), since again there's not really much of a point to use aliases.

Stocking: Well...

(Y/N): That was definitely something.

Panty: Whatever. I lost my mood for a good fuck. I just wanna go to fucking bed.

(Y/N): Yeah, I know what you mean.

(Y/N) looked over to his side, with his eyes narrowing. Morning Star was still alive though, tiptoeing and trying to sneak away.

(Y/N): Except we got one more thing to do.

Panty and Stocking: Right.

Morning Star: SHIT!

(Y/N), Stocking, and Panty: REPENT, MOTHERFUCKER!!!

Many slashes and gunshots landed in those couple of seconds, and the ghost cried out in pain.

Morning Star: It might take a million years, but I'll be back!!!

It then explodes violently, dropping six coins. Just like Cross' Morning Star did.

Stocking: (Y/N). You wanna go grab something sweet to eat?

(Y/N): Maybe tomorrow Stocks. I'm tired as shit from all the fighting today.

Stocking: (smiles) Fair enough. Let's just go home then.

Panty: I ain't driving.

Stocking: Me neither.

(Y/N): I hate you both sometimes.

The camera then ascends towards the sky, looming over Daten City.

Garterbelt: People who have never crossed paths, who might seem worlds apart, find themselves drawn together by the invisible threads of destiny that not even the heavens can foresee. It’s a reminder that journeys are often interconnected in ways we cannot always understand.

Damn. Couldn't have said it better myself.

In anycase, See Through can be seen in the distance, putting a close to this chap-

Panty: (Y/N)! Fucking step on it! I want to get home already!

(Y/N): Calm your shit woman! I want to get there in one fucking piece!
