Celestina stands in front of miyamoto, and wilson. Her eyes narrowed, gaze focused entirely on the two of them. As if prepared for the other side’s attacks, none of the three moved, aside from the occasional twitch. For minutes on end, nobody makes a move.

Celestina(Thought):... It took a minute, but I believe that my body has adapted to these two… You may have had some luck at the start, but I hope you weren’t so sure about your victory.

As Miyamoto flies forward once again- she attempts to punch Celestina. However, she moves her hand, grabbing miyamoto’s fist, and stopping her strike. As she pushes Miyamoto's arm away, she reels back, and gives her a punch to the stomach, which sends her flying back. As Miyamoto looks back, she notices a building behind her, Which she uses to stop her flight back. Though, at the building’s expense, as it is reduced to rubble, collapsing soon after. Miyamoto looks up at celestina.

Miyamoto: that was a good punch… was she holding back before?

Valerie begins firing blasts at celestina once again-- however, she begins to rapidly weave around, dodging the blasts. And, though Valerie grunts, as she begins to fire more, Celestina simply gets faster, continuing to dodge her attacks. much to the surprise of the two. Celestina smirks at the two, as Valerie stops firing her beams.

Celestina: I won't be beat that easily.

Valerie:Not good---

Soon enough- Celestina appears in front of the two- giving both of them multiple strong strikes, Miyamoto sent to the left, and celestina to the right. Valerie thrusts her hands forward- firing a number of blasts from all angles. Some of these land, but many of them miss.

Miyamoto:There's no mistake about it. She's gotten stronger… Devil Slicer!!!

Valerie(thought):I’ll use one of those… Hopefully minamoto can hold her off for now.

With this- Miyamoto swipes her right hand, releasing a burst of demonic energy. However- Celestina manages to avoid this attack. Miyamoto simply decides to launch multiple, as her opponent dodges, and blocks her attacks, however. Her attempts at attacks remain ineffective, with only the buildings surrounding her being cut into pieces. Elsewhere, Valerie floats there, eyes closed. As a light begins to surround her. As she slowly opens her eyes, the light intensifies, and she puts both of her hands up in front of her.

Valerie: Alright...

With this- Valerie launches a comparatively larger- single blast. Celestina’s features are painted in surprise as she puts both of her arms up in front of her, in an attempt to stop the attack. Celestina finds herself struggling against it. Though stable at first, inch, by inch, she loses her ground, as she begins to be pushed back.

Miyamoto: Is this all a member of the imperial guard has?! There's no way you could be stronger than Honda, All you’ve done here is dodge! You’ve only shown weakness here.

As this is said, celestina's eyes narrow. As her fists clench, a look of rage appears on her face.

Celestina: Weaknesses…? Celestina Acconio… WEAK?!

PART B

" On March 3rd, 1989- In the Sardinian City of Sassari, Was Celestina Acconio Born. Her parents were both proto-humans that had high ranks in the Kaemerge military, known for their high strength, and their synergy… her abilities were vaguely defined, and even after activating her latent Protomis, she didn't display anything heightened physical strength… She was ridiculed by her parents- and the nobility in the circles they frequented in… They trained her- hard, so that she wouldn’t become what they believed to be a disappointment to the family… When celestina reached 16- she began training with the Kaemerge army officially- this- is where she first met her patrolling partner, Rinmon… The two would split up, as celestina went to support the Amerikanisches Reich… where she would build up her reputation- until the two met in the imperial guard selection exam… a battle Royale with over 100 selected. And only 9 left living, or able to fight. These 9 would become the new imperial guard members… ever since- Acconio is increasingly angered at all who dispute her strength…"

Celestina: You'll regret those words!!!

Celestina speeds forward- reaching Miyamoto in a matter of moments, before beginning to pepper her torso with punch upon punch, upon punch. Quick, and unrelenting. Her expression seemingly having changed to one of rage. Unable to do anything, Miyamoto continues to take the hits for quite a while. Until she is launched away, by a left hook. Crashing into the ground, and skidding as she goes along. Celestina turns, looking directly at Valerie, she speeds over, as the latter prepares to make a defense. Celestina throws a punch, which Valerie manages to narrowly dodge. However, she would then throw a second punch that sends out ripples of force- sending her back upon impact. as well as parting the buildings behind her. Soon, Valerie stopped herself, as Miyamoto sped toward her.

Miyamoto: We can't waste time here-- we need to use that!!

Valerie: Right!!!

A wild red aura flares around Miyamoto, as she clenches her fist. as she builds up demonic energy within herself once again. as it flows into her hands- it condenses around there, with her hands glowing. As balls of energy surrounded Valerie's hands, she placed her hands forward, as did miyamoto.

Celestina (Thought): I won't let you!!!! .

Within moments, celestina speeds toward the two. Soon clenching her fist, and seemingly preparing to make a strike.

Miyamoto: AKUMA RAY!!!!

Valerie: Enigma WAVE!!!

With their words, two large beams, more than enough to swallow celestina whole come flowing out of their hands. Though separate at first, as they move forward, the beams would eventually merge- becoming overwhelmingly large, and forming a white light before crashing into celestina, and sending her flying back. Though, she attempts to stop herself, and get through the attack.

Valerie:This ain’t enough, We need to use our full power.

Miyamoto:Right!!!

With this, the two let out a resounding yell as the beam gets noticeably larger, breaking through Celestina's guard, and stopping her advance.

Celestina:Damn You!!!

Celestina begins to be pushed back, flying back as her guard is broken.

Celestina:Damn You!!!

Celestina’s speed increases, as she crashes into the side of the canyon. As she lands, the rock buckles. As she creates a crater upon her impact, being shoved deeper, and deeper into the rock. With shelves of rock breaking off, much of the city underneath was destroyed by this. and the inhabitants' faces painted with fear, as they are crushed underneath. Some fell upon the city itself. As we get closer to celestina, we see that she's no longer moving, having died. Elsewhere, within the hole, Celestina sits lifeless, Her body limp, and eyes empty.

Valerie:Huh. I guess we hit a nerve…

Miyamoto:Never mind that… I wonder how the others are doing. They could be having as much trouble as we are, if not more.

Valerie:If that heat from earlier is anything to go by… I'd say Arctaius already fought somebody…

Miyamoto:If he won, then he's likely on his way to Rizian if no other imperial guard members get in the way.We won't fall behind…

The two turn toward Rizian, as they begin flying toward it. Combat seemingly continues behind them. As much of the city's buildings are reduced to rubble. Along with the rising smoke, and ships overhead.
