With the knife sent out of Erinye's arms (and Theseus quickly snapping to attention, running over and catching her before she hit the floor), the darkness wave Nakiri was in quickly faded away.
A cloud if ink appeared to snatch the sadness knife away before Nakiri could grab it again.
A Burst of Diana's aura crossed along Nakiri, causing some more hair to fall out as Diana stepped into Nakiri's path, firing a blast at her from her laser, which hit Nakiri's left shoulder, while the aura of death struck her in her right shoulder.
"You've got some nerve, pulling that shit on us!" Diana called out, as the aura of death struck Nakiri again.

Nakiri spat some blood out as she looked up to Diana with a a pained expression, one eye was open and one was closed.
“D-don’t act like you would of done it differently if our positions were switched, even I got a taste of my own sadness.” Nakiri said.
And then she delivered a headbutt in Diana’s face and jumped away from the death dust coming her way as she backed herself into a corner and had three knives left, she went for the purple one, the Destruction knife.
“With everything at stake, I’ll do everything in my power to ensure our survival!” Nakiri yelled.
She raised the knife and slashed at the air, unleashing a purple wave and as soon as it reached the others, the wave exploded and everyone flew backwards.
They landed in different parts of the room as smoke filled the bay as Dietz coughed up some smoke and quickly looked to his left and saw Nephthys’s cloak lying on the floor but no Nephthys.
“Holy shit, she disintegrated Nephthys!” Dietz gasped.
Izanami slowly stood up, coughing up before she looked forward.
“Watch out!” Izanami yelled.
A purple beam of destruction shot out from the smoke, hitting a metal wall and began moving to the left while tearing through the wall and was reaching Bacchus, getting closer to him.

It appeared to make contact, but when it did, that Bacchus disintegrated into a cloud of ink. Bacchus had to have vanished and replaced himself with a illusion at the last second.
"Oh, that was just a illusion." Diana commented, as Bacchus re-appeared next to her. He angled his scythe and fired a beam of light in the direction the destruction beam came from.

Nakiri quickly dodged to the left, avoiding the light beam as she shot a purple orb of Destruction that flew towards Bacchus and Diana.
Hercule got in the way, ripping a floor panel out and used it to swat the orb into the wall and exploded. The panel he was holding turned into dust when it came in contact with the orb.
Nakiri was about to blast another beam of destruction till something wrapped it's arms around her arms.
"W-what the hell!?" Nakiri asked.
Then the ghostly bandaged fish with the blue aura appeared behind Nakiri, the Medjed form Nephthys used against Gin, she held Nakiri's hand up in the air while holding the destruction knife and used her other hand to wrap it around her body to keep her still.
"Get that knife away from her!" Nephthys called out.
Nakiri, using her other hand, she pulled out a regular knife and stabbed it into the fish tail to get Nephthys to back off.
Nephthys winced in pain slightly but kept her hold on her.

Diana held her hands out and-
the destruction knife completely rusted over, almost cracking apart as Skin flaked off of the hand that was holding it. She then ran forwards, as the knife completely cracked out of its handle, falling to the ground.
Diana ran past Nakiri and grabbed the knife from the ground, running to the other side of the room.

The knife Diana grabbed had some charms wrapped around it, still glowing purple, it's clear that the charms were the ones containing those elements that made the knives work.
"NO!" Nakiri yelled, as she was able to lift Nephthys and tossed her off herself.
Nephthys changed back into normal and aimed the staff at Nakiri.
The grey sphere appeared around Nakiri, trapping her inside it.
Nakiri looked around before she started smacking her fists against the sphere.
"Let me go, you pieces of shit!" Nakiri yelled.
"Yeah, that ain't happening, lady." Hercule said, Izanami was standing behind and looked at Nakiri with a concerned expression.
Nakiri almost snarled in his direction as she looked around to see that the Imagination knife that he knocked earlier was still on the floor when they broke through the imagination landscape and tried to imagine something as she looked at the knife.

When she did that, Erinye kicked the knife away.
While Diana was focusing on the knife in her hands, the charms wrapped around it quickly began to rust and rot away, quickly turning to dust and debris.

Dietz still had his weapon aimed at Nakiri despite her being trapped in that sphere.
"You lost the battle, Nakiri. It was a stupid mistake of you to sneak inside the ship on you're own, guess your buddies din't want to risk the chance of getting themselves killed and sent you to do the dirty work." Hercule said, crossing his arms.
"What the hell do you know, you punk, you don't know shit about us or about me for that matter!" Nakiri said.
She then turned her head to Izanami.
"And I don't want to hear it from you either!" Nakiri yelled.
"You're right, I don't, which is I would advise you to calm down and just surrender, and maybe you will walk out of here in one piece, perhaps maybe we can reach an understanding or-" Hercule said.
Something that Hercule said made Nakiri's eyes twitch as she pressed her hands against the sphere.
"Or, or what!? You think I'm just gonna raise the flag and surrender to you or put my tails between my legs and run, is that it!? For your information, you fuck, all I've been doing all my life was run! Run and not look back so I won't look the things that are chasing me square in the eyes, things that wanted me dead!" Nakiri yelled.
"...Nakiri." Izanami said, she couldn't think of anything to say that could help her calm down.
Nakiri just stared at the floor as she backed away from the sphere, her hands were shaking uncontrollably.
"I've had my own share of situations of being cornered by things that wanted to eat me, that din't care about me as a living thing, they just saw me as food, before I got recruited into F2, all I've been doing is just run and never dare to look back...and now, I'm supposed to get on my knees and beg you to let me live, like I did to every monster that tried to kill me, is that it?" Nakiri asked, the volume of her voice was rising as one of her painful memories began replaying in her head.
A little girl with short dirty red hair and dirt marks on her body wearing old torn clothes, holding a knife to her chest and a doll in her other hands, looking at a pack of wolves circling around her with teary eyes as they were about to approach her with clenched teeth and angry eyes.
"Please, just leave me alone! I din't ask for this, I don't want to be eaten alive, just let me live!!!!" The little girl cried out.
"TO HELL WITH THAT! AND TO HELL WITH ALL OF YOU!" Nakiri roared, clawing at the sphere.
"Watch it! One move and you are dead, you hear me!?" Dietz asked, ready to shoot in case Nakiri somehow manages to escape.
Nakiri snarled, with clenched teeth before she looked at her belt and only had two knives left, one glowing with orange which was the knife of Knowledge and the other one was the knife of Rage, which was glowing intensely as Nakiri's anger was going through the roof...thus giving her an idea.
"...If I can't take them as I am now...then I have to fight just like them...I have to be a monster to fight monsters, fight fire with fire!" Nakiri thought to herself.
She grabbed the knife of Knowledge and tossed it on the floor and picked up the knife of rage.
"What is she doing now?" Hercule asked, not letting his guard drop.
"Nakiri!" Izanami said, putting one foot down as soon as she reached for the rage knife.
Nakiri ripped the charms out of the knife and dropped it as she held the glowing red charms above her, clenching her hand into a fist.
"If I can't defeat you all as a human, then I'll become a beast myself to take you down so I hope you are all ready for what's about to come!" Nakiri yelled.
The charms in her hands extended their glow to the rest of Nakiri's body as she felt a large dose of rage consuming every emotion she was feeling right now, her head was pounding with unhealthy anger.
Nakiri let out a scream as she looked up at the ceiling, her scream pierced through the ears of the Neonytes, Nephthys and Izanami, whatever was happening to her sounded very painful.
"NAKIRI!" Izanami yelled, trying to reach her only to be stopped by Nephthys.
Tears began falling out of Nakiri as her scream continued, it almost sounded like she was crying as the red aura around her intensified.
Her blue pupils shrunk and turned red, her teeth turned sharp along with her nails.
Her arms, thighs and back swole up with new muscles and her size increased in addition, her skin's color slowly changed to bright red, the shade of her hair turned darker red, Nakiri's crying slowly transitioned into a unnatural growl as two horns pierced their way out from her head, covered in blood and pointed at each other, even the structure of her face began changing.
"What the fuck is wrong with this chick, is she turning into a Hulk or something!?" Dietz asked, wisely backing away from the sphere as he had no idea what she was saying while Izanami looked horrified by the transformation her old friend was going through.
Nakiri opened her hand, releasing really tiny, tiny bits of her crushed charms that landed on the floor as she raised her foot and stomped the ground, the room shook slightly as she held onto her head and roared at the ceiling.
"RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH!" She screamed, her voice barely sounded human anymore.
Nephthys's sphere turned red and broke into pieces, Nakiri's aura released red energy that spread into the room, all her opponents could feel right now is pure rage emitting from the F2 member and the air itself felt hot all of the sudden, it's like they were inside Cyndass's belly.
The transformation seemed to have come to an end as the aura vanished and smoke was coming out of Nakiri as she bent her forward and got herself on four legs, kicking up the floor like it was dirt, her hands grabbing onto the metal panels and tearing through them and exhaled smoke out of her nose like a enraged bull, glaring at all her opponents while growling with saliva coming out of her mouth and gritting her sharp teeth.
"That element inside her knife increased Nakiri's own strength to a new level, even her demeanour has changed, she barely looks like a human." Nephthys said, looking nervous as she stood close to Izanami who looked shocked.
"It's probably a good thing you din't have your red coat on, bulls go apeshit at the color red." Hercule commented to Theseus as he raised his sword, aimed at Nakiri.

"...How sad." Erinye commented, while Theseus stared Nakiri down.
"There's nothing else to do." Theseus said. "If she's going to go this far, we need to deal with her."
Theseus made the first attack, both of his hands were pointed at Nakiri, as he fired several blasts at her in her new form. Bacchus stepped backwards and vanished into a cloud of ink. While Diana simply remained where she stood, tightening her grip on her lance.

Dietz had his gun pointed at Nakiri while Izanami slowly raised her and shield, looking uncertain.
Nakiri's horns started to glow, releasing a bright red energy beam that eradicated Theseus's lasers like they were nothing.
She roared as she began charging ahead, running exactly like a bull as two red energy spheres appeared on her horns and shot them in opposite directions.
One sphere hit Nepthys and the other hit Diana, sending them flying into the ceiling before the orbs exploded into rage energy that electrified their bodies as they collapsed on the floor.
Dietz got slammed into the ceiling as Nakiri collided with him and her horns made contact with Theseus's knees, the horns went through.
"Theseus!" Hercule said, sprinting towards Theseus.
Nakiri grabbed Theseus by his wrists and slowly stood up on her feet, holding him above her head with her horns plunged into his knees as she began crushing his wrists while growling like an animal.

"Dad!" Erinye called out, as Theseus's wrists popped off his arms. He pointed his robotic arm- with only the cannon beneath it, and fired a beam point-blank at Nakiri's face. With a noticeably pained expression. His knees were still pierced by Nakiri's horns, though.
Erinye ran straight back for the darkness knife, which had been lying on the floor somewhere since Nakiri exploded it out of Erinye's hands earlier. Picking it up and clutching it with both hands, she pointed it at Nakiri and sent another blast of darkness at her. "Leave! My father! Alone!" She screeched.

Nakiri shook her head repeteadly and the horns came out of Theseus's knees as he got sent flying.
Hercule managed to grab him.
"Holy shit, man, are you okay!?" Hercule asked, as he placed him down and started healing immediately by placing his hands over his knees.
Nakiri, with marks on her face from Theseus's beams, counteracted the darkness beam by shooting another rage beam that overwhelmed the beam and was reaching Erinye very fast.
That is till Izanami got in the way and pushed the rage beam with her shield right into the wall.
"Stop this, Nakiri! You aren't being yourself!" Izanami pleaded.
Nakiri simply roared at Izanami in response before she got shot in the torso by Dietz's beams, managing to land hits on her but all they did was just piss her off even more.
She turned to Dietz and shot a bigger rage orb that formed between horns and launched it at Dietz as it hits his gun instead and exploded in his face.
Nakiri then charged towards Izanami, ramming her horns into her shield and rammed her horns into the shield before knocking her into the wall.
She grabbed Izanami by her armor and slammed her on the floor, bending down to wrap her veiny hands around Izanami's throat and started choking her. Izanami placed her hands around Nakiri's but couldn't be able to pull them off, she was too strong.
"Gh! N-Nakiri, it's me, Izanami, you can't recognize my voice!?" Izanami asked, with a hurt expression as she was running out of oxygen.
Nakiri just snarled, Izanami's voice couldn't reach Nakiri at all, blocked out by all the rage consuming her mind and body.

Erinye stared at the knife, confused for a brief moment, before placing it in a pocket for the time being.
Bacchus appeared from practically nowhere, and swung his scythe directly into Nakiri's body.

His scythe went right into Nakiri's back who spat some blood out, elbowing Bacchus right in the face before dropping Izanami on the floor.
With the scythe remaining in her back, Nakiri got up and turned slowly, towering above Bacchus while blowing smoke out of her nose as she grabbed him by his leg and started squeezing it.
While holding his leg, she pulled him up and slammed him against the wall before the ceiling and then the floor before beginning to repeat the process again, using him as a anti stress ragdoll.

As she did, another Bacchus sprouted out of him, stabbing another Scythe into Nakiri's shoulder.
A Second Illusionary Bacchus appeared and repeated the same action, with the same shoulder.
Diana then jumped into the fray, stabbing her lance through Nakiri's chest with a look of utter fury on her face.
The wound that was created when Diana stabbed Nakiri's chest began to rot very quickly.
