The Metal Maiden receives a few direct hits by energy blasts from Nemesis, the last of which knocks her out cold, returning her to human form.

Isabel firmly grasps Ariel's hand, once again merging with the redhead.

(Do I want to know what's going on with Cid?)

{Probably not,} Alterna replies telepathically to the group. {The energy Nemesis draws her power from is incompatible with most Earth technologies.}

Alterna's attacks seem to be having the greatest effect on Nemesis, but largely because of the others' contributions. Go team! [x]

"From... The Void? And we're contaminated with it." Ariel's eyes lit up. "Forcibly connecting Cid to the time-space continuum and the goddess of Time grants her suit the ability to NULL the Void."

She paused.

"Cid, you need to focus it on her, not us. If you can limit the power she can draw, the elements should be able overpower her!"

Cid tilted her head. "Run the numbers."

(Unable to comply; Null.) Jarvis retorted.

"Well, we're trusting the boss, then." Cid took a breath, and set her target on Nemesis. "Welcome to the real world. We call this 'Time and space'."

"Yes!" Strahl grinned and took up a defensive stance in front of Cid. "I've got her covered. You guys finish this!"

For a split-second, The Otherworlder feels her unnatural connection to Nemesis falter, then sever entirely. With her archenemy's power now physically and Cosmically diminished, Alterna lets the Elements do their thing.

Having come to, Jessica goes metallic again and charges for Nemesis, who is still held captive in the glassed earth. Alloy delivers a few well-placed blows to the villain in retaliation for the ones she took.

When Jessica steps back, the Scotswoman fires up again and send a column of violet flames surging right at Nemesis. The entity is able to deflect the fire briefly at first, but soon her reserves of extradimensional power run dry. Ridley's assault then singes off Nemesis's hair and chars most of her face, though she isn't completely defeated.

...Yet.
