The Blue Planet turned in turmoil beneath, as life of all kinds was changed or outright eradicated. No such event before this would come close to the levels of catastrophe that the planet suffered . . . and yet it could not be said that no force after it would be able to speak of the same.
The great expanse, from deep beyond, held within it a terrible power. Roaming the cosmos for longer than any would be able to comprehend, slumbering as the mood suited it and taking as it desired, this incredible force had been brought from its torpor and given a new desire.
It was sudden. First, a blinding radiance set off just beneath the Earth, an incredible prominence that blotted out even the Sun's light, the incredible force dulling all stars visible in the Earth's sky and even within the Net that would remain to see it. Then, the light died, inverted and consumed, as the impossible formed beneath Earth, wide enough to span the length of the solar system and more, blotting out all sources of light and spelling inevitable doom for all.
Its singularity spawned underneath the Earth, and it alone was wide enough to span the length of the solar system. The accretion disc floated out for lightyears on all sides. Its beautiful photon sphere created an incredible crown of light that surrounded it, forming a beautiful arc. Its incredible relativistic jets, still spluttering from previous meals, thankfully fired downward, but spanned for several hundreds of thousands of lightyears.
Earth did not fall. Its inhabitants would not even notice its presence, save for its sudden appearance. It was a daunting and daring reminder of what it was capable of, but even greater still was the supremacy of the one that controlled it - the Black Hole Server bent fully and totally to its master, and would not consume the Earth until he was ready for it to be his.
"Ah, the famed blue planet . . . Finally, I arrive.
"Raise your futile defenses. Prepare your greatest efforts. I shall claim you as my own, all the same . . .

. . . It was a black and desolate area. The Wave Roads, familiar to Feint, Warrior, and Xion, but new to the other arrivals as completely flat, slightly transparent platforms made entirely of Wave Matter, were grey, the only other color in the space being the absolutely blinding flow of matter, data, and light itself around the edges of the Server towards a fixed, black point at its center.
Despite the pull that dragged them all here, and the evident presence of intense gravity in the space around them, those that gathered did not feel the same pull that was affecting the matter and light around them. In fact, from traveling from the Undernet to the source of the gravitational singularity itself, there was a surprising lack of gravity. Almost as though the gravity was bending around them, not affecting them at all.
They appeared on a large, grey platform, amid a massive expanse. Crisscrossing wave roads of black and grey branched out, rose from, and bent away from this central platform in all directions, rising up and stretching around one another to create an intricate lattice. If given the time, exploring this expansive Server would be quite the task without getting lost, and would probably prove impossible. Even now, staring at the edges of their vision, it seemed as though the expanse was getting farther away.
The group had truly found themselves in a black hole. Below, fathomless darkness that descended without end, every now and again a bright flash moving past them in the void beneath. Above and around, what looked like streams of data flowed from every angle, passing overhead and around the platform, traveling in an arc to give the sense that the Server around them was in motion - like they were orbiting something. Just like they could move on Earth without being impacted by that orbit, their platform seemed to stand still in respect to them, the rest of the Server in motion. In truth, they, too, moved in sync around the singularity at its center.
The streams of data, rocks, space dust, and even raw light streaking past the air around them were accentuated by the random pieces of data that seemed to have been dragged from the Undernet, or perhaps other parts of the Net that Sirius has had time to absorb. Spare parts of Navis, debris from the carnage that befell Earth, and what looked like a digital framework building itself in the distance as the Black Hole Server absorbed the Undernet, byte by byte. Impossibly large shadows passing overhead gave the impression of something much larger floating about inside the void, just out of sight, the implications of the very planets that Sirius has absorbed for his amusement.
While there were multiple paths forward, and no proven way to traverse the interior of a Black Hole, the awe of the moment never ceased. Even as the group arrived, one after the other, their large platform gave way, lifted up from its paths. The roadways of wave matter and debris parted away as they passed, the platform beginning to move, and speeding up as it traveled, motes of light and strands of energy darting past them as the master of the Server pulled them to him.
It was some time before they saw him. Rising from the unfathomable nothingness at the center was a blinding, prominent light. As he came into view, Burai raised up his sword, prepared to do battle, and the master of the Black Hole Server connected their platform to the large platform he resided in.
He stood in the center of an expansive space, floating motionlessly above a circle of waves that looked like a miniature replica of the very black hole he commanded. His satellite wings, for the first time visible alongside their master, floated deftly just behind him, pointedly outside of the edge of that circle.
For those who knew about black holes, they knew escape was only possible so long as they maintained from the epicenter; beyond the event horizon, there was no hope. The Point of No Return. The singularity itself seemed to be Sirius, all of the matter floating through, all of the waves passing by, all of the energy and light crossing through the black hole either just barely passing his sanctum by, or being pulled beyond that boundary and seemingly directly into Sirius' body, breaking down into photons and adding to his prominence.
The gathered forces, would, then, be in part of the Server that was akin to the innermost point of stability - the closest they could be to the singularity without being at risk of getting pulled in. A clear line in between the platforms acted as an indicator of a point they couldn't cross, Sirius staring at them from a still marked distance - perhaps a half mile wide - from the center of their platform to the center of his.
The Administrator of the Black Hole Server, in all of his glory - the greatest natural font of power this universe has ever known. While feats have transpired that would permit others to surpass his might, there are none who can claim to be as naturally powerful as he is. Stripped of all other power sources, Sirius alone will remain at the end of all things.
Sirius opened his mouth a sliver, and a booming, mirthless laugh filled the space. He waved his hands and his wings maneuvered away from him, flied past the boundary, and darted through the Server around the gathered party. It gave off the sense that the true start of the point of no return was the spot where Sirius himself stood - that spiraling void was as close as anyone could dare get to him. It would allow combatants to engage him in melee, if only they wouldn't be careless enough to accidentally step over.
His laughing ceased, and Sirius looked out across those that had gathered. His power was impossible to calculate, and yet impossible to undermine - the depth of his energy was comparable to the very same depth of Forte's file size, and yet perhaps even deeper than that. He considered each of them, his power flowing, and his smile never left his face.
"Gyahahaha . . . welcome, all of you. It has been . . . sometime, since I've last had guests. I would say . . . almost three centuries, yes.
"Have you come to your senses, and plan to submit yourselves before me? I keep reminding you that I don't like to fix my toys before playing with them; it would be much simpler if you'd give in . . ."

It was enlightening to see what it looked like inside of here. But it bothered him that it was like how he had been told as well. But it at least still served as a confirmed theory for what could have otherwise been a useful thing for them to have in their possession if it were possible. How quaint that for something that light could not escape from for a being of bright light to be its epicenter. And if he was every bit what he made himself out to be, for Grom then this would be quite the chance indeed. Finally, a chance to be gained in the direction of dealing with one of the Earth's constant problems. He already knew what the answer was going to be, but he would at least leave the prompt on the table to say he provided an alternative to just confrontation.
"There's really only two options here. You do the simpler thing, submit, and become a useful asset at our behest. Or you be forgotten to history after being broken here."

Despite not moving, Grom would feel the childish stare of Sirius turn onto him. For a being so aloof, he was still quite foreboding.
". . . Me? Submit and become an asset . . . " he paused, as if contemplating the thought, then chuckled and shook his head. "No . . . no, you should be happy to be my toy. Everything here . . . all of it," he pauses, gesturing to the Server in whole, "will one day cease to exist . . . you would get to stay here, forever, and play with me within the darkness. Wouldn't that be fun? I could set your stage on another planet, maybe that hyper dense one, and your people could try to figure out how one planet would produce seven stars upon its destruction . . . or I could just watch you all fight for your lives on that one planet with a population that cannot ever be killed, even by the depths of a black hole . . . so many options, so many planets, too little time and toys.
"What do you think?"

An undying race that could survive a black hole? That wasn't so strange given a few of their own. That planet was a strange one that he was unaware of, but he would hope that eventually space would stop being their problem. But he had lost him in this discussion of who should cede to whom early on, with one simple word at that. And so the rather normal one shook his head in refusal, a sign that he was against the proposition.
"I think I would prefer if you had accepted my offer instead of posing yours. Nothing is forever. And nothing ever will be. That's life, something neither of us truly have a grasp of. Anything else is just a cheap mockery of it."

Sirius was silent for a moment after Grom's retort, truly perplexed by his response. He laughed again, considered his guests, and quieted down before speaking again.
". . . I awoke in a time immemorial, I think. I sleep often, and the Black Hole bends it, so it is difficult to determine the exact passage of time. My Wave structure is that of gravitational waves, birthed at the merger of two black holes . . . I will be forever, as in comparison to me, nothing else will remain once I am no more. My life is therefore a good measure of eternity, I believe.
"I will decide what is destroyed, and when . . . it gets very boring, in this bleak, blackness, however. I wish to expand my collection of toys. I think, once I'm done collecting all of you, I'll set you loose back on Earth to watch all the little humans run around in terror for a bit. That should be amusing. It may even entertain your current visitors long enough for me to learn more about them.
"I love it when my toys are interesting . . . some of your fights are very entertaining, in the history logs that I have downloaded!" Sirius holds out his hands and summons screens in front of the users that show some of their more recent, and even more ancient, fights in rapid replay, even against some of the greatest threats the Net has ever withstood.
". . . I think, however, all of you will pale in comparison to the joy of watching what he has in store. I love it when my playground gets bigger . . . by removing all of you, I assist in my amusement growing. Once I remove all of your wills, you won't amount to that pesky new Sigma that is growing . . . and then we can start playing! Gyahahahah!"
Sirius kept turning his face to look at the Navis, but his self-absorbed nature made it seem as though he was talking to himself moreso than he was to anyone in particular.

He could see why Sirius would find it funny. Existing since time immemorial usually provided you with the idea that it would never end. But that was just further proof to illustrate his message. Even that which existed since such a merger was about to discover what the Point of No Return looked like. For one who decided on their whims what and when, losing that choice would be a lesson they would learn once and only once. As he should have seen from their ancient history, they were not fond of repeats. But it was nice to know that Sirius had some details that they were otherwise unaware of. A new Sigma that was growing that they wouldn't amount to with their wills removed and a bigger playground, huh? He hated when his bucket list got longer after doing his job.
"That just confirms my point more than anything else. You are a good measure of forever, save for the fact that life will go on once you're gone. You won't be around to know that, so it's not like you'll have any proof of that either. Or rather you are well aware of that and simply choose to say otherwise."

His omnipresent smile was perhaps the most daunting part of Sirius' demeanor; this all seemed like a game to him, still. He listened to Grom's words, considered them again, and responded in kind.
Reaching out his hand, Sirius opens up another set of windows for the group to view into; the Server bends as gravity warps, and the space before them folds away into a wormhole that grants a look into something else. A window into a timeline where a blue hero fights Sirius and wins . . . another window opens into a timeline where a magnificent, sun-like deity annihilates all life in the swipe of his hand, Merrill in particular recognizing the prominence. Other windows open about around them, Sirius capable of observing many different avenues. ". . . I am aware of many things, of course. My home . . . distorts space and bends time. Here, I can observe much, even things that you cannot fathom. I have watched multiple versions of myself lose fights just like this one . . . so, yes, you could say I know things that I choose to say otherwise.
"It makes the encounter more fun, I think . . . I will collect you, in my ideal reality," he responds, closing the visages of potential from their view. "Triviality surrounds me on most occasions, but even I must admit that the grander designs unfolding have attracted my attention . . . I would collect the Earth, but it is the ground for a wonderful experiment on all of my playground. Already, your visitors have given me great new intrigues and toys to explore and play with. Things this universe doesn't naturally possess . . . and, of course, in the grand scheme of things, I currently amount to the new Sigma that forms." He pauses at this for a moment, glancing off into the distance, towards the Earth itself.
He laughs again, ringing crisp and clear. "While seeing how other versions of me have lost has informed me on what to best do, I must simply admit that I am not accustomed to fighting at full force. This is my server, and you should have no hope of defeating me here . . . but even with my magnificence, I am not faultless. I enjoy playing with my toys, so to speak . . .
". . . at the end of the day, one of our sides will cease to contribute to that which grows even now, by the erasure of our power from this place. If you defeat me, however, who controls every aspect of this Server, you may regret the fallout; it is my power alone that stops my Server from consuming your Earth. It would be quite . . . unfortunate, if I no longer continued to concentrate on that effort. And with my passage, so, too, goes the wisdom of the cosmos at my grasp. I would have much to teach, but I much more prefer to have toys to play with than to teach, admittedly.
"Children do need to be taught their lessons, however," he laments, finally cackling again, as his wing verniers begin to collect power into their core. Whereas he seems to still be conversational, it is evident that he is preparing for the inevitable, one way or another; he will collect, or he will be defeated. There is no other option, here.

That blue hero was probably the one Burai was familiar with. It only made sense to assume as much since ordinarily their timeline would have no reason to have to deal with this. An emperor who wanted to be amused and had managed to find something to pass the time. It only made sense then that he would behave like this when the lack of time would ultimately stunt any sort of growth in the isolation. Well, that and his tendency to break and remove the will from anything and everything. There was no sympathy to feel, as since Sirius was born this way, he could only ever perish because of it. As for that elephant in the room, it would be the first time that Sirius would be able to tell that Grom wanted to display a smile of hi own.
"I'm willing to bank on the odds that there's more than one being that can control your former server and alleviate our supposed problem."
Now that his wings were ready, Grom's arm changed to an unceremonious buster of its own. For all its show it was more or less just a normal buster. It was clear where things would be going from here, defeat and essentially assimilation. That was ultimately how things would pan out for either side that claimed victory here. Sirius out of fun and them out of necessity. And so as he would do time and again as long as he held his position, he would deal with the threats that amassed themselves because of the power they wanted to hold over others. And if it involved the entire Earth? For that, he would always make certain that he wouldn't leave failure to chance.
"For the child lost to time to never grow, here's a lesson you won't soon forget. Even the most normal of us can topple the grandest of your kind."

Sirius' face, for the first time, distorted, as his smile widened into an unmistakable grin. Throwing back his head, Sirius cackled wildly into the void, a wave of power rolling off of him so intense that it threatened to throw all of them back the way they came, even as his singularity pulled them closer.
Once his maniacal cackle finally died down, Sirius composed himself and looked back at Grom, the light in his eyes very powerful, now. It seems something he said was actually, truly funny.
"Oh, I have had time to grow. Too much time!
"If you believe you can withstand the grandest of my kind - of which I alone hold that title - then I simply must have you for my collection. I'll put you on a shelf, right next to the legendary heroes with your very same aspirations before you!
"To think that another could control my Server . . . it'd be amusing to know that someone else was afflicted with this burden. Win or lose, I forward the potential for this world to become more amusing, and as far as I am concerned, for my amusement, even the stars shall suffer. So what're a few measly Humans, Navis, Wizards, Hybrids, and so-called Gods?"
A sudden well of power flooded from Sirius as his power spiked again, a radiant golden sigil forming over his chest. The symbol of the Murian people, the Crest of Mu, emblazoned itself across his chest as its power cycled into motion, the final piece of Burai's puzzle realized: Sirius was to come to Earth at just the right time.
The magnificent seal spread power across Sirius' body, the golden crest etching black lines over his form and sprouting spikes from his joints, giving him a similar visage to the Murian gods that Feint and Xion had seen before. The final result was truly imposing; an incredible font of power seemingly amplified further by the Murian crest on his chest.
"Gyahahah! This black hole has no need for things such as emotions, but even I must admit that this is going to be amusing. Come! Show me what Earth's protectors can give to me! Help me to make way for grander things!"
The power that Sirius had been amassing was suddenly unleashed. A maelstrom of force radiated from his body that sent the navis, wizards, hybrids, humans, and so-called gods surrounding to their faces, kneeling before his magnificence regardless of their capabilities. As his power flowed, the singularity he stood in would absorb some of theirs, a magnificent prominence forming around his body as they felt their energy leave them. So much data and power flowed into his form, until the blinding radiance of the star surrounding him was all-consuming in scope, and it was impossible to see the cosmic warlord from within it.
His wings became a flurry of activity across the battlefield, compressing themselves and flying at incredible speeds, sonic booms flying behind them as they simply tried to tear straight through their opposition. Each of those present would have their fair share to deal with, but Burai, Moon Disaster, and Grom would find moreso than the others; Grom seemed to really get Sirius' attention.
What came next was a simple but dangerously effective show of force, as Sirius raised his hand towards the Moon Disaster and moved it about, pure power rolling off of him as the Moon Disaster was simply thrown to the side, crushed by the weight of gravity. Everyone else would have to contend with an incredible wave of gravity rolling off of Sirius, threatening to take even more of their strength and stamina.

Burai stayed silent while Grom played his game of cat-and-mouse with Sirius, talking back and forth while he studied his environment. Sirius' power was nothing to scoff at, but he was prepared.
The power of the great being not only acquired but augmented, Burai focused his absorption of her power into something he would get the most out of. As the waves of force and gravity rolled off of Sirius to indicate the beginning of what would hopefully be Sirius' end, Burai simply allowed the incredible strength of his divinely reinforced Rejection Barrier to nullify the impact of the blows entirely.
What he couldn't stand from was the incredible pressure he released; it was nothing like what Le Mu was emitting before him. The gravitational pressure forced him to a knee, and he found himself unable to move. The power of the divine within his blade surged, however, as Burai collected his might against Sirius.
Burai
[Burai HP=30,000/30,000]
[Isolation Zone] A broken history paved his road to conquest, and all that stand against him must fight in the depths of his isolation. - Burai has no allies. Burai does not benefit from any effect reliant on allies. Burai cannot be intercepted for. - Individuals do not benefit from any ability that is generated by, targets, affects, or is reliant on allies, and treat all effects as though they were fighting alone. No individual may intercept for any other (self-summoned objects are not included), and abilities activated can only affect their user or their enemy. Allies cannot be excluded from effects that would target or affect all enemies. - Offensive interactions based on others are negated. - Burai can designate entities to affect with the negative effects of this skill. Sirius, selected. All others excluded.
[Mu Rejection Barrier] An invisible, impermeable defense mechanism that separates Burai from others, and prevents any harm to his form. Seemingly with a mind of its own, this transparent, circular disc appears before him as his ultimate defense mechanism. While his defense mechanism is up, aiming attacks directly at him seems to jam and disrupt a navi’s targeting systems, making attacks fly off without hitting their mark. - The Mu Rejection Barrier negates five full attacks made against him each turn. - When negating the same attack in a turn, negate one additional instance of that attack per time it was negated. For every 10 times an attack was used in the turn, double the total negates of the Rejection Barrier and apply its overall negates. All negates reset at the end of the turn. - Negates gained in this way apply per hit to multi-hit attacks with avoid separately, but always negate a full attack. - If Burai has any negates during a turn, he automatically negates any C-Range Attack, as well as any attack modified by an aiming effect, without losing negates from the barrier.
Burai negates all 3 hits of Wing Assault and Obliteration for himself.
Support Phase -
[Murian Genesis] The power from which all divinity flows, now flowing from the edge of the Laplace blade. That incredible might is Burai's to channel, and enhanced many of his base abilities. -- Except by other entities with this skill, effects from the user's attacks cannot be copied or imbued. Skills copied from the user are always graded one tier higher for uses and scaling, and lose any custom properties. -- The user's effects that scale based on Version are 100% more potent.
[Rites of Destruction] For he who quested to destroy all that she raised, the Murian Survivor inverts her incredible ability to create into an unfathomable strength. -- Increase elemental benefits applied to attacks by 100%. -- Attacks ignore all interactions based on their target's elements.
[Wave Generation] The epicenter of the Earth's naturally occurring wave world now resides within Burai. That font of power allows him to absorb ambient wave data as his own. -- Burai regenerates 8% of his maximum health each time he uses a Blade-element Attack. This can occur up to 5 times per turn. Burai does not otherwise regenerate. -- All entities with wave-based abilities restore 2% of their maximum health each time they use an attack with their primary element. This can occur up to 5 times per turn. -- Burai can exclude beings from this effect. Sirius excluded.
[Divine Severance] To hunt down and strike away at the calamities that came from her, Burai augments the power of their creator to his needs. -- When a full turn charge is performed, Burai applies a full turn charge to all applicable attacks. -- When interrupting charges, Burai can apply those charges to his attacks.
Burai has 1 Attack Slot. Full Turn Charge applied to Burai Break, Laplace Slash, Murian Blade Burst, Divine Harvester, and Anathema.
Moon Disaster
For all his talk, the Moon Disaster was easy enough to keep quiet given the seriousness of the moment. His face stern, Xion would recognize the careful and calculated look of a being used to conflict; even as Sirius' display went on full force, he stood strong.
A being of his stature was brought to kneel rather than to fully kowtow, but even as he fell the incredible energy roiling off of his body brought him back up to speed. It seemed that the Moon Disaster was already acclimating to the powerful presence of Sirius' being, and whereas Sirius was naturally holding back, he would not.
Launching off from his position, the Moon Disaster used what speed he had left - which seemed to be plenty - to spin rapidly, creating a maelstrom that knocked off the wings ever so slightly, and even freed him from Sirius' control. Bracing himself against the gravitational wave, even that seemed to unphase him, his body unleashing waves of space dust in response.
Keeping his momentum going, the Moon Disaster kept watch of the wings flying around and rocketed towards one of them, aiming a fist and shattering one instantly. Xion would know that normally his punches unleashed waves of force from their impact, but the wing shattered apart and gave no further give to his efforts. With his momentum lost, the Moon Disaster plummeted again.
[MoonDisaster HP=79,800/79,800]
[Lunar Satellite] The Moon Disaster raises his hand to the air, gathering together space dust and energy from previous conquests to raise a massive sphere of stone into the air behind him. -- 5,000-HP Non-Intercepting Object. -- This object is immune to Destroyer Effects, Multi-Target attacks, and benefits from all of the Moon Disaster’s defensive abilities. All of these immunities are bypassed by effects produced by Moon Disaster. -- Locks the panels into Ocean Panels while active. This effect cannot be overcome without destroying the object. -- When Destroyed: Inflicts 500 Unavoidable Lunar/Aqua Damage to all targets. Multiply by 2 per turn active. -- Used for free on first turn.
[Pressure] Found within the deepest, coldest regions of space, the Moon Disaster is unphased by any attempt to unseat him. -- The Moon Disaster nullifies any effect that would allow an enemy to benefit from the amount of damage he prevents. -- The Moon Disaster is immune to any negative effect that is dependent on his version, armor, avoidances, health, or attack slots.
[Attacks] - Moon Disaster intercepts for all attacks and applies a Full Turn Avoidance to the attacks.
[Braced Force] Acclimated to the force of a formidable rival, the Moon Disaster can brace himself against incoming harm, drastically increasing his defensive efforts. -- Moon Disaster increases his armor against all attacks by 1,395. -- Applies even if his armor otherwise would not. -- 23/25 Uses/Battle.
Moon Disaster takes 0 Damage.
[Crescent Blades] The Moon Disaster’s body has multiple crescent-moon blades orbiting it. As he maneuvers around the battlefield or is attacked, the flow of his movement seems to fling these blades off of him at high speeds. These blades respond differently -- Deals 505 Unavoidable Counter-Damage when avoiding S-Range Attacks, or 1,010 Unavoidable Counter-Damage when being struck by C-Range Attacks. -- If an S-Range attack requires multiple avoids, this counter procs per avoidance met. -- If a C-Range Attack was charged and reduced to 0 Damage by his armor, the Unavoidable Damage is increased by the charge.
[Abyssal Vacuum] An absolute chill that comes with the dead of the last frontier. -- Lunar Element attacks automatically inflict Freeze onto their targets. Freeze can be inflicted multiple times to stack its duration. Afflicted targets take 5% of their max health as damage per turn, increasing by itself per turn afflicted. -- Unaimed Attack Damage and Unavoidable Damage is increased by 50% against frozen targets.
[Refracting Mirror] An unyielding combatant, for which all enemies must meet against their own mettle as well as his own. -- When activating unaimed attacks from Lunar Element triggered by reducing an attack’s damage to 0, imbues the aimers, avoidance hindering effects, hits, and piercing effects of the attack onto the unaimed attack. -- By expending one use from this skill, user can adopt effects regardless of limitations using this effect. --- 7/8 Uses. Unavoidable adopted.
::Element:Lunar:: ∑ ::o:: When reducing an attack to 0 Damage using only armor, the user releases two unaimed attacks with if hits: permafrost (attack slots), and deals damage equal to the user's armor.
[Lunar Chill] -- 14,440 Lunar S-Damage -- If Hits: Permafrost (Attack Slots); Freeze -- Hits All, Unavoidable
[Moon Disaster counters for 1,515 Damage]
Support - Nothing Here
Offense -
[Satellite Disaster] The power of the Moon Disaster’s blows seem to be felt all the more from structures, his incredible strength best used in shattering defensive fields and obstacles alike. -- When targeting an aura, barrier, object, clone, other HP-Entity, or a Frozen target, Moon Disaster treats his base damage as though it were equal to his Armor, instead, and ignores any passive Power Block effect such entities should possess. He also treats his attacks as aimed. -- When destroying any Non-Navi HP-Entity, or defeating a Frozen Navi, Moon Disaster releases an unaimed attack with damage equal to the Max HP of his target, increased by his armor and percentile mitigations, with hits all.
1. [Disaster Pummel] @ 1 Satellite Wing Simple but nonetheless effective close-quarters attacks with the Moon Disaster’s shattering strength behind them. 15,830 Lunar/Stone C-Range Damage ° Breaks Unbreakable Shields, Cannot be Intercepted, Cannot be Countered ° Deals 1.5x Base Damage as normal. ° Adopts a single destroys effect of choice upon use.

Joker.DB
Joker was quite tired of the holier-than-thou attitude that he had been dealing with since his endeavors began with the new opposition, but knew that Sirius would take more than just his brute strength to surpass. How he viewed the world, what he thought of the people and Navis on it, forced him to reflect on his own views.
Natural selection was an easy enough thought to follow - survival of the fittest. The strong thrive, and the weak do whatever they can to survive. The implications of some pathetic life form used to sicken him, but now he was finding value in even the purpose of every little thing. Was it too late for him to make amends for the damage he had caused with his previous conviction? With what he had done to Unity, Uni, and Illia. . . he didn't know.
They may have been forgotten to history, but he will carry that with him. To prevent more like them from becoming casualties, he can do what he can, here. Sacrifice . . . the risk here was insurmountable.
As he was forced to take a knee, Joker weathered the gravitational pulse without worry. As his systems prepared their response, however, Joker felt first the wave of power from the generator in his core, and then second the reality core itself as its power augmentation was funnelled directly into his nuclear reactor. As his nuclear generator created energy to restabilize him, the overflow crested into a mass of noise that rapidly crystalized and exploded, radiating outward for Sirius to contend with.
Even with the power of the gravity holding him down, Joker didn't need to move to be able to assail Sirius. Manifesting his power, he forced a finalized state from increased noise levels, the signature red armor coating his form. Exerting his own power, Joker broke space around him into fragmented pieces of glass, shattering the very fabric of reality to bombard Sirius from all sides. With the energy he had collected, he reared back his hands and unleashed a wave of crimson power forward, aiming to show his full strength in one great display of power.

Hollow.___
All this talk of growth, purpose, emotions, and even desires . . . Hollow stayed silent through the banter, analyzing it, but found Sirius' thoughts counterintuitive. He was willing to destroy them if only to add them to his collection, but he would prefer to not destroy them if he could? His black hole had no need for emotions, and Hollow knew them not, but it seemed Sirius was at least capable of more self-identification of his desires and wants than he was.
Hollow was more empty than a being that lived within a Black Hole. The irony was wasted on him.
He withstood the punishment of the gravitational effect, forced to a kneel by Sirius' outward might. The symbol glowing on his chest was familiar, again, and a similar power was radiating from Burai that he recognized, but it was like trying to get to something that he wasn't supposed to know. This talk of Wizards, hybrids, and gods sparked some of that within him, but he couldn't go searching for it. It was beyond him. If he could understand confusion, this may be it.
In truth, he was still blank, and unflinching. He didn't care enough to go looking for the information. With his power limited, Hollow prepared himself, as he always would. Patience would follow through, even against the impossible.

An emperor was privy to use all that they surveyed as instruments to their amusement. They would simply have to deal with the uprisings and insurrections along with that desire of theirs. But that last bit there was something curious indeed. To make way for grander things? Even more than what he was already in possession of? What was he going on about--?
"If you were asking my opinion, I believe that..."
He couldn't help but hear her voice in his head then. But when he had asked her thoughts way back when they first happened upon that very same Murian symbol on Sirius now. And when he saw it again later on Burai, he had to keep to himself why it had concerned him. It wasn't because they hadn't been equip to deal with these foreign elements, as they perhaps had too much time to prepare themselves for exactly that in the shadows. No, what made him more worried was that she was right. That from where he stood she had no grounds to be right about the matters she spoke to him about at length. But that was for another time as the pressure fell upon them, calling a chip to his hand as in seconds he was already peering into how to pick apart this Sigma.
"His gravity's pressure is lessened if you respond to it rather than resist it outright. He's surprisingly adapted to some of our own tools as well, but those aren't an issue here."
The chip would disperse as Feint and himself would be coated in data that changed the air about them. It wasn't as though he excluded the others, merely that his were much more specific on who they worked on. The next would be the influence of his buster at work, as even the most vaunted programs that many sought after were hampered under its effects, its influence seemingly amplified further thanks to all of those gathered here and now. And he would aim the weapon and fire at Faith as the Moon Disaster made his move, setting her in motion as the bomb shell would be sent hurtling toward her. He already had his other moves prepared during the conversation. Now was seeing whether or not he'd be on a shelf with aspiring legends or not.
Defense:
NIA Adapter The tools of the NIA can be adjusted to deal with the oppression of those working against it. Effects: Feint and Grom's abilities must be nullified by three separate sources to be bypassed.
Dominance Breaker The broken down products of what are considered the Ultimate Programs can be undermined with the proper resources. Effects: Nullifies the effects of opposing Giga Programs.
Unavoidable taken for 900 damage and 225 DoT for 5 turns.
Set:
Focus Buster A shot with a purpose to do what needs to be done. Effects: Can only be used once per turn. When used, unleashes an attack at a target of choice. The attack loses all effects except for one aimer and one damage augmenting effect. Uses: 10
Used once. Feint chosen. Attack Chosen is Blaster Shell.
Blaster Shell S-Range Seeking Element A combination of a bomb and a shotgun unleashed at a target to unleash a powerful attack. Base Damage: 7,000 Seeking Damage: 70,000 Effects: Cuts Auras, Seeking Damage bonus applies at 4x potency to this attack.
Offense:
Charging Finish Buster, Sudden Spreader, Cascading Wave, and Blitz Sword - 1/1

While the banter between Grom and Sirius went on, Warrior assessed the scene as best he could... but still didn't have any plan of attack in mind to confront Sirius, much less inside of his own black hole. He knew Cherish had been dealing with the EM Beings recently though, and she seemed to still be in one piece, so she no doubt knew a thing or two when it came down to it.
" You've got more experience here than me, Feint. I'll follow your lead. "
Feint rolled her eyes as she made her own assessment, at least keeping in mind the Tribal trinkets that still adorned her body and why she was temporarily given them.
" What else is new. "
Before Warrior could really process that insult, Sirius had made his move and his knees instantly buckled under the pressure. Feint, meanwhile, was granted reprieve from this by virtue of Grom -- her NIA Isolator sparkling in response to the chip he activated.
Not one to relent under pressure, Warrior still pushed through to swing his blade and send out a shockwave to each of the wings and their owner, but hadn't quite fully adapted to this field of play to be able to do much more.
Meanwhile, as Feint's own restrictions were removed, she freely opened fire at Sirius to garner his attention, knowing she was at least in the best condition to receive his attacks while the others adjusted to the black hole's pull.
Her eyes did their best to lock with his, staring directly into the brilliance that masked him as she called out her response to his challenge, doing her damndest to paint the red target on herself for a while.
" Then by all means: Let's dance, asshole. "

Being one of the last to arrive, it took him a second to reorient himself and deal with the shock and awe of where they as a group were. The Black Hole Server was no joke, and he only had mere moments to take it all in.
He felt a shiver up his spine as they ascended on the platform to meet their foe. The strange lack of gravity was different and unexpected, but it was noted. Merrill looked at the expanse of black and gray road, and even a peek at the nothingness below. He was reminded of the strange land in which they battled Eon himself, and how the eerie moments now felt similar, and yet, even scarier, despite how many of them changed. He glanced at Warrior.
Upon reaching the apex of their ascent, he finally saw the being that they had all banded to face: Sirius. As his eyes noted the wings, he recognized them as the being that attacked him previously. Through gaze alone, Merrill felt lucky to have survived.
He stood quietly, observing the conversation between Grom and Sirius. Well, Conversation was a loose term, each stating their threat and request of surrender.
However, he froze, his heart skipping a beat as the monitor showing the reality of this Sun deity wiping out lives with a wave.
"That must be him..."
Just what was the limit of power that one could amass, to wipe out worlds like that? It was difficult to fathom.
Not that there was much time to even consider that, because Sirius' line about messing with humanity made his blood run cold.
Even with what little information he had been given as of late about these new beings, combined with the fact that there were other races (not a surprise really, considering navi's and humans), hearing one discuss them all as toys was just... a disappointment.
"Immortal, eh? Hmph. There are only a handful of immortal beings that I know of, and that name ain't one."
"He sure reminds me somewhat of you."
Death grunted in the soulspace at his quip.
"Shut up and focus."
As Sirius continued the banter, Merrill listened quietly, silently agreeing with what Xion stated earlier. But he had to admit, Grom's rebuttal felt... satisfying with how even a normal person could make a difference.
To bad he himself had failed at that, many times over. Not that there was time for that.
Hearing that Sirius was aware of a new threat, a "new sigma" sparked his curiosity, but that would be a question for after this battle. He realized that his limited knowledge, limited study and that sometimes isolating himself away was showing even more drawbacks.
Sirius' last line however before transforming, sparked some ire.
"So-Called? That boy might be old, and have lived centuries, but some of us are older. As he stated, children must be taught lessons. And so we shall! Immortal my ass! The only two truths of existence are that of Life and of Death!"
"He clearly has knowledge that we do not. We may be old and powerful... but we are not all knowing. Regardless, we must be careful.... I do agree, however that he must be punished for his crimes and threats... For what he has done to all life..."
Merrill braced himself, his own blades appearing, and he gripped them, changing his stance as the Black Hole Server Administrator showed his true form...
The sheer wave of gravitational pressure slammed into him, sliding him back several inches and forcing him to his knees and elbows.
"Such power..."
As the others began to retaliate, Merrill began channeling energy, anticipating that things were only getting started... He would rise with them, and do everything he could to help them.
Even though he was adjusting to the pressure and still acclimating, Merrill caused several bursts of searing hot light to strike forth at Sirus, as well as one that was white and black, that would hone in on him from anywhere.
