>>6001569“Arctus, we need you to lead us in.” you call telepathically to him, flashing up into your Berserker God form once more and taking point. Throwing your arms wide, you create your Barrier around you and your wife as two of the nearest ships draw nearer, opening fire with their energy weapons. Your Barrier deflects the shots, their energy skating across your shield. “We're going to tear that box right out of the ship.”
“Right. Okay, the nearest opening to the box now... Looks like your best bet is inside the right shoulder joint, on the underside of it. That'll be your most direct route.”
You take off, Meloka hot on your heels as you fly towards the distant colossus. Your Barrier absorbs shots from the much smaller warships, only for your instincts to suddenly go off. Warning you of imminent death. Looking up, you see that massive being is staring down at you, eyes blazing as the real Darkseid's had only moments ago.
“Shit, I don't think I can stop that.” you telepathically warn your wife, who flies up level with you, placing her hand on your shoulder.
“I'll handle that. I can stop it.” she replies, closing her eyes a moment. And when they open, you see the steely determination blazing there. “Go. I'll stop it, and teleport back to you.”
Wordlessly you nod, ending your shield and blasting forward at full speed towards the robot Darkseid. You rapidly approach the opening Arctus informed you of, turning and looking back just as the former Lucrehulk fires. Twin, colossal beams, reminding you of your battle with the Demon God Dumplin fire down at your wife. But as it does, your wife's blazing power is unleashed. Her blazing power, fired in a Final Flash upwards slams into the two beams, the combined impact unleashing a blinding flash of light. Momentarily blinded you cover your eyes, turning your head back towards the titan and flying up. Only for a swarm of Arctus' fighter ships, you think he'd called them “Vultures”, streak down towards you. But you don't have time for them, quickly gathering your ki and unleashing a Scattershot directly into the approaching swarm. Your attack splits into dozens upon dozens, the orbs detonating on contact and clearing you a path. Allowing you to fly straight towards the entrance, recognizing the energy shielding as that from the Lucrehulk before. The space is wide enough for you to have parked your entire home in, flying through the shield and taking a deep breath. Exhaling, you then reach out to your wife telepathically.
“I'm in.” you tell her, a moment later feel her ki beside your own then she appears as well.
“Phew. This bastard's tough.” she says, you seeing several beads of sweat on her forehead. “Which way?”
