Opal forced his body to stop. He spun around and began to hold one arm out. Opal stopped the beam and slapped it away. (Just like that?!) Widow thought. Widow had only blinked for a moment, but that's all Opal needed. Opal punched directly through her torso. As it happened, Colt revered her injuries from where he was. (That damn time user. Colt is….a problem.) Opal thought as he dove straight at him. "Huh?" Colt gasped. Opal pulled his arm back, about to throw a punch.
Colt froze Opal in time. Flow came flying down from above and landed a powerful punch on the beast. Opal was sent away, crashing through multiple giant hands. "Nice one, Colt." Flow said as he put away his sword. "Don't get comfortable. Opal hasn't even showed us the beginning of his power. I'd say he's using 1% right now." Flow said.
"1?!" Colt asked.
"Yes. I would go all out…but my last attack was even a threat to you and Widow's lives. We will literally have to work together, Colt. We can win. We can take down Opal, who has stated to be the strongest beast. That'll be a huge advantage for us if we take him down now."

A man wearing white joggers slowly walked through the galaxy-like area. It was quiet…too quiet. White joggers, no shoes, no shirt, very muscular frame, stood at 5'10 in height, light blue hair, and blue eyes that glowed. This man…was Jack Frost. (I can sense these cowards. Where are you guys? I made a promise to a little prince years ago, that I'd kill him and you!)
Jack stomped his foot into the ground. He launched himself into the air and bursted through the ground. There were millions of black holes. (This place is an expansion. Possibly some sort of dimension. Jack floated above the black holes and slowly put his hands together. "In that case, I'll do this little trick." Jack opened his eyes wide, to reveal two pairs of eyes with a snow flake shape in the pupils. "Frost attack: Apocalyptic Storm!"

(Mom…please, save me.)
Widow opened her eyes and clutched her sword tight. She bolted right at Opal. Opal grabbed her wrist, stopping her from swinging her broken sword. "Attacking alone? Not smart, Widow."
"I've been alive…for hundreds of years. You think…you think I'm just some fool?! You think power is everything, I say having companions is a greater strength!" Widow said. Flow flew in from behind. Opal landed two blows on Widow, knocking her back. Opal turned to face Flow, but was surprised to feel a cut on his back. "Wind attack: Air slashing!" Widow had straightened her fingers. She used her wind ability to create strong air attacks that acted as blades. Opal distorted reality, causing Widow to see a giant swirl in her view. Colt in the distance, clapped his hands to slow Opal's movements. Opal could see an equation appear from all sides of him. He had no reaction, he simply…had the dimension itself counter Colt's time ability. Opal stepped out of its way and grabbed Widow by the neck. (He avoided my time attack?! How? He…he could see it?!) Colt thought. Colt flew at Opal with killer intent. Opal smiled and threw Widow at Colt. The two collided and hit the ground. Flow came in, his red aura flaring around him like aggressive waves in the ocean. Opal held out his arm. The dimension twisted and turned, causing Flow and the two to all plummet into space. (This is crazy! Opal is on a whole different level!) Flow thought.
Opal clapped his hands together, building up his aura at the top of all his fingers. "Crazy wave!" The beast roared.
From each of the beast's fingers, purple lights shot at the three. Flow quickly flipped his body to put it upward. "Wind attack: Great storm!" Powerful winds shot the beams back. Flow held his sword in front of his face closely. Flow had just noticed it, but all of his demonds fell behind Opal. It looked as though it were raining them. "Combine!" All of the demons swirled together, causing the dimension to shake. They came together like a massive tornado of fire in the sky, becoming a three-headed dragon.
Opal slowly lifted his head and tilted it to the side. "You should be on par with Udo. This…this is nothing. Show me…what you can really do, FLOW!!!" Opal roared. Flow smirked at Opal. (That face…) Opal thought.
(My dragon isn't just for show.) Flow thought. "I place… A VOW!!!" Flow yelled out. (A vow?!) Colt thought. "Flow, just what are you-"
"I'm winning us this fight!" Flow yelled out. The three continued to fall deeper into space. Opal looked up at the dragons again. This time, the three heads were sticking out of the dimension and looking down at everyone. The body of the dragon was gone, just the heads were looking down.
Opal created a smooth platform for the three to land on. They landed and prepared themselves. (This is the perfect matchup! Head one: Perception, head two: Binding, and head three: Loomshard! Opal is controlling this realm with his own set of rules and more. It's like his own dimension. I don't believe this is truly his expansion…not one bit. With that in place, Head one…it specializes in special topology. In other words, the first head will detect the realms gateways, control vectors, and anchor points. It all just depends on the dragon's position. It also will provide nearby possible rules. In dimensions, the user may have different rules, depending where u are in the dimension. The second head: will be the binding! This head plays a crucial role in countering Opal. It'll release spatial binding that'll resist abrupt reconfiguration inside a defined sphere. Another ability of the second head is that it'll use topological binding, which will prevent the user from collapsing or stretching the space in a loop. Then…the third head: it'll use loomshards! Loomshard will project space threads around the dragon. These space threads will generate parallel special states within, outside, and beside the space realms boundary. That's IF he isn't spreading the thing infinitely. It'll also leave by a small line…the line that'll connect to gateways and anchors! We just need one…someone to find this line and get out and send in help!) Floe thought fast and loud to himself. "Each head….needs 10 minutes to open. Thirty minutes for each head. That's what we must do." Flow said as he gripped his sword tight.
Opal just looked down at the Akie. "Now, why pull out the heads and not have them attack?" Opal whispered to himself. (I can feel…my dimension vibrating…even with me infinitely spreading it, causing it to go in forever…I sense these dragons…oh, I see. Flow can use such abilities?! Amazing. However, I believe Flow will use lattice signals to find the gateway. I'll produce an anti-anchor field that will nullify an lattice signals. This will cause the signals to go crazy, even give him inaccurate information on where the gate/anchor is. Another option is to simply use echo-nulling. That'll simply cause counter-signals, bouncing the sounds directly back to the dragon heads. Making it basically lost in finding an anchor. I could also use the heads energies and turn them into harmless forms, making them part of this dimension. Flow would simply want to find a way out, protecting the gateway and anchor should be my main goal.) Opal thought.
Flow could sense Opal was starting to pick up. (Wait, does he know? If I were Opal, what would I do? I know he can change rules in here…hell, he probably is gonna go all in on protecting the gateways, right?)
(Just protecting the anchors would be too obvious. Flow may be trying to somehow stop my dimension from expanding/ stretching. I can go with the first plan…to protect the gateways from being found. My dimension won't stop expanding…no matter what. So, can Flow possibly stop it from expanding? If he can somehow stop my dimension from expanding, who's to say he couldn't make it his own? His own rules? HIS playground.)
(I bet Opal for a fact is gonna protect the gateways. He'll possibly try to redirect the signals from the dragon. Like hitting it back at them. Some anti-anchor field. I also have to try to find the edge of the dimension. Even if it's infinity spreading…I can't stop. I'll have to catch it fast. But let's say Opal really is going to do the anti-anchor field…I'll need to counter his counter!)
(I'll resend the signals back, messing up the signals. I'll also, at speeds faster than the speed of light itself. Some akies will have no problem seeing that….but I believe I have the only one who can right in front of me.) Opal thought.
(I'll use counter-counter signal. I already know the dragon will emit energy…so, I'll use resonance that directly destabilizes the counter-signal Opal will attempt to use. This will leave an open window, allowing someone…no-all of use to visually see the gateway for a moment!) Flow thought.
(I also know possibly thought about countering my counter with another counter. Let's say he will use the dragons energy to use a counter-counter signal, pretty much allowing mine signals to not have any affect. No-I know that's what he's going to do! So, in that case, I'll simply counter your counter signal with a hard counter! I'll use anti-feedback nullifier! It'll release a pulse of energy that'll destroy the signals!)
The two of them locked eyes and slightly leaned in.
(Even so, there are multiple more ways he could counter! And it'll still take me some time to actuallly counter it!)
(Even so, there are multiple more ways he could counter! And it'll still take me some time to actuallly counter it!)
The both of them thought. Opal couldn't help but smirk. "FLOW, you really are special, aren't you?! It's been some time…since someone's had me actually plot in my own dimension!" The beast laughed. "I'm glad…NO- IM EXCITED TO KILL YOU!!!" Opal raised his aura, it spreaded across the cosmos. Flow responded with his own aura, giving off powerful heat waves. "Colt and Widow…I can't have you die here. I want the two of you to play support. Let me handle this. What's about to happen…it'll be too much. Colt…be ready to keep reversing injuries at an instant rate, okay? Do not let up!" Flow warned.
"O-okay!"
"Flow, what is you're about to do?" Widow asked.
"I'm gonna see if we can get out of here! Everyone that's here!" Flow yelled out.
