The Sky was filled with different colours of magic, the hermits paid no attention to EX as they all fought together.
Stress, False and Cleo were together, Fighting off the authorities on the north border. Cleo's army of armour stands were taking down authorities, though half as efficiently as she would have liked since they themselves were taken down in one hit.
Stress' blasts of ice were only making dents in the front lines, though they were almost immediately replaced by more, the waves seemed endless.
False was relying on her bow skills, taking down authorities from the watchtower, she was picking them off quickly, but still more kept coming,
On the south border, Ren, Jevin and Bdubs were fending off the authorities that were quickly surrounding the area, They were holding them back the best they could.
Ren had morphed, and was attacking the authorities as a dog as if he was a wild animal, and Jevin had shifted into a slime lion and was doing the same thing, Bdubs was doing his best to help, creating and throwing random objects, usually sharp ones, at the authorities, but soon enough they were surrounded.
Doc, Cub and Scar were at the main gate, Cub and Scar both using their vex magic to stop the authorities from getting close and Doc was dual wielding some fancy gun things he'd made during the time Area 77 was facing the threat of the hippies.
Xisuma was working furiously at the infinity portal, a holographic screen up in front of him as he used his magic to get the portal ready for a reset, a process that usually took a few days at least.
Near Xisuma was Wels, who had been put there for safety, since he was in some form of coma that had started months earlier, and around them was Team ZIT, the three were forming a sort of protective barrier around X and Wels.
TFC, Joe and Keralis were dotted around the area, all three doing their best to fend off any authorities who got it. Since both Joe and Keralis' magic was useless in pvp, they were relying on pure skills, whereas TFC was relying on his power to defend himself.
Soon enough, the hermits on the borders had to retreat inwards, they were surrounded and the authorities just kept coming.
"Protect X!" False yelled over the sound of battle, "We just need time!"
So that's what they did. The hermits with better pvp skills and more offensive magic types made up the outer ring, while the more defensive and worse pvp skills made up the inner defense, Grian, EX, Iskall and Mumbo scattered through the group. Grian, Iskall and EX joined the front group, while Mumbo hung back, the hermits didn't seem to notice EX in the heat of the battle as magic flashed Grian threw up a forcefield that blocked the authorities bullets from hitting the hermits, though they were closing in.
The situation seemed hopeless, the hermits were taking down the authorities but there were too many, the sheer numbers were making this seem impossible.
"We have to get out of here- this isn't enough!" One of the hermits cried, over the clamour, X didn't look back, continuing to furiously work his magic on the portal.
"It's almost done! Just a little bit longer-" X called back.
And so the hermits kept going, they kept the authorities back, even EX, who never used his magic, was using it to help the hermits keep the authorities back.
There was a scream, one of the hermits fell, it was Stress, she had been hit with a bullet in the leg, Grian's forcefield wasn't going to hold much longer, the blonde was already beginning to look exhausted.
"I can't- I can't hold it-" Grian cried.
"You can G, just a little longer!" Mumbo called, "We believe in you-"
"I can't do it-"
And the forcefield shattered.
