After the Super Earth National Anthem the Vytal Festival resumed

Port: I can't believe what I just heard.....*wipes away manly tear*

Oobleck: are you crying Peter?

Port: No! No I am not! Get back in there tear!

Ozpin: well that was a rousing display of patriotism from the people of Super Earth, but I wonder how does the Helldivers fare against our Huntsmen?

Team Helldiver Vs Team NDGO

Cardin: don't expect any favors because your all women.

Nebula: it would be an insult if you did.

Port: FIGHT!!!!!

The Helldivers dove for cover as they assumed defensive positions

Cardin: plan 42, Thunder Mountain!

They began throwing their stratagems

Port: what are those I wonder?

Oobleck: it seems you weren't listening to the briefing, those are the Helldivers trade mark Stratagems.

They vary from Reinforcement, Supplies, Support Weapons, Air Support or Artillery.

They are linked to a Super Earth Destroyer that supports the Helldivers during combat.

But only when they are available, if a Destroyer has left it's position they Helldivers are left to fend for themselves.

Back to the Arena

Octavia: how is that fair!?

Cardin: nothing is fair little Missy now get used to it!

The deliveries came as each member took their support weapons

Sun grabbed a Stalwart Light Machine Gun

Neptune grabbed a Recoilless rifle

Caboose was holding a Grenade Launcher

And Cardin hefted the Auto Cannon

Cardin: all guns OPEN FIRE!!!!!

That includes you Caboose

Caboose: Yay!

He fired his Grenade Launcher as the entire team saturated the field with all the munitions they got as Team NDGO struggled to advance to their position

To the stands

Ren: it seems like they have their own system in relaying orders.

Jaune: that's the Sgt.Major for you. We basically drilled those plans.

Pyrrha: like plan 33 Blitz for us?

Jaune: that's right.

Nora: kick their butt Caboose!!!

Pyrrha: seems like Nora found a friend.

Ren: well Caboose is the only one we know who loves using grenades like Nora does.

Back to the Fight

Neptune: reloading.

But reloading the Recoiless Rifle took too much time as Dew was on him like white on rice

Neptune had to ditch his support weapon as he engaged with his Liberator

Octavia went after Caboose but that was a mistake as Caboose screams and charges her with a Thermite Grenade using it as a club and sticking her

When the sparks started she panicked as Caboose the kicked her away before exploding destroying her Aura knocking her out

Team NDGO's Aura was cut in half as they wasted their time climbing the mountain while they were pelted with a salvo of artillery and them getting hit with Debris on their way up

Sun then run and gun making Dew very Angry

Gwen: stay still you dirty ape!

Sun: nah I don't think I will.

As he Dive fire hitting Gwen as she swung at him breaking her Aura

Once broken Sun aimed at her and knowing she has no aura raised her hands in surrender

Neptune was running out of ammo as he switched to his pistol which was faster than reloading

But she didn't gave him a chance to reload or recover but she was caught off guard by a pistol whip to the face as the two were at a stalemate as Helldivers don't have Aura and Dew's is almost gone, she and him are locked

Cardin on the other hand had to switch to his Breaker and fought Nebula on an even footing but as the fight goes on he finally shot off the weapon out of Nebula's weapon out of her hands

Nebula: you wouldn't shoot an unarmed opponent.

Cardin unequips his Breaker as he cracked his knuckles

Cardin: equal rights, equal fights Missy.

As he bum rushed her in a fist fight

Proving his Physical advantage made it clear Nebula wasn't winning

Oobleck: well there you have it folks! Team Helldivers win!

Port: and for men not having Aura or Semblance they sure put up a decent fight.

The Audience was surprised at that tidbit

Meanwhile in an undisclosed location:

Adam: WHAT DO YOU MEAN THEYRE ALL GONE!!!?

Back to the Arena:

Cinder was contacted by Adam

Cinder: what do you mean over half your people are gone!? We need you to sow chaos!

Adam: we still have enough to honor our agreement, I'll do my part as long as you do yours.

Cinder lowers her scroll

Emerald: what is it Cinder?

Cinder: we move ahead of schedule. Emerald I need you to get on one of Ironwood's ships and finish the virus transfer.

Mercury: you handle the bombs all over the island.

Cinder: we'll make this Super Earth pay for getting in the way of my perfect plan.

As she prepares commands for all Atlasian ships to attack a certain target

The Festival was now reaching it's Climax

Meanwhile in Orbit

Democratic Officer: are the shipments from Super Earth here?

Crew Member: yes sir all the Experimental weapons ready for battle testing are ready.

Democratic Officer: good, remain on standby, Commander Arc will signal us if he needs us.
