Chapter 60: Duel Before The Throne (Edited)

(No point of view)

There they stood outside of Tenshukaku. Patrick, Kiana, Mei, Bronya, Fu Hua, Jingwai's Wings, Book of Fuxi, Seele, Aether, and Paimon.

Paimon: So why don't we just rush inside?

Patrick: Because I want Signora to witness an explosive entrance from us. Maybe strike some terror into her.

Paimon: Oh...

Patrick and Kiana: NOW!

(Inside)

The doors blew open then fire and smoke came through then Patrick jumped in first then Kiana, Mei, Bronya Fu Hua, her ELFs, Seele, Aether, and Paimon. There she was. La Signora. No. 8 of the Fatui Harbingers. The Fair Lady. They ran up closer.

Signora: The way people charge in here as they please, so uncivilized...

They stopped when they got closer.

Signora: If I didn't know this was Tenshukaku, I might have mistaken it for some kind of street market.

A tick mark appeared on Mei's head.

Signora: Have you learned your lesson now?

Feeling provoked Patrick fired Pyro from his fist at Signora but she blocked it with Cryo.

Signora: Don't you know it's rude to interrupt someone when they're talking?

Patrick: SHUT UP!

They saw Kujou Sara unconscious.

Paimon: Oh no, what has she done to Kujou Sara...

Raiden Shogun: The right to punish Inazumans for their crimes is mine alone. Not yours, Signora.

Signora: ...Then I apologize, Almighty Shogun.

Patrick growled like a beast as he wanted to get it over with and kill her.

Group: Signora!

Signora: I know, I know, you can't get me out of your mind. But you really don't need to call my name all the time. Don't go thinking I'm surprised to see you here. I'm well aware that you all hate me, with the way you all follow me around like a dark shadow.

Red energy was coming off of Patrick. As there was different colored energies coming out of the others. Except Aether and Paimon.

Aether: You're secretly distributing Delusions...

Patrick: You're trying to seize control of Inazuma...

Kiana: You're trying to kill everyone...

Mei: You took advantage of the puppet...

Bronya: You took advantage of your Diplomatic Immunity...

Seele: You're trying to steal the Raiden Shogun's Gnosis...

Fu Hua: You caused the Vision Hunt Decree and the war...

Signora: Ah, so you came to expose my crimes in front of the Shogun?

Patrick: Yes. This time we're going to prove to everyone in Inazuma that you and the Fatui are all criminals! Just like when we exposed your crimes to Liyue! And get your Diplomatic Immunity revoked!

Signora: Hehehe... I'm just a Snezhnayan diplomat. I'm afraid I have no idea what you're talking about.

Patrick shot fire at her again but she blocked it again with ice.

Patrick: You're a liar! You know exactly what we're talking about! We're going to destroy you're Diplomatic Immunity!

Mei: He's right! We're going to destroy your Diplomatic Immunity to get you and the Fatui out of Inazuma!

Signora: Destroy our Diplomatic Immunity? Please. You've already failed at doing that in Mondstadt.

Paimon: She doesn't take us seriously at all...

Aether: For all who have lost their Visions...

Mei: For all who have been harmed by Delusions...

Signora: Stop talking about people and things that I care nothing about.

Now Mei felt provoked and strikes a bolt of lighting at her but she blocked it with an ice shield.

Signora: They were nobodies to begin with, and their names will be forgotten. But now, at least, they get to be building blocks in the grand revolution to realize eternity... Is that not the greatest honor they could hope for in their tiny little lives? Almighty Shogun... do correct me if I'm wrong?

Raiden Shogun: ...

Aether: For Venti's Gnosis...

Patrick: For trying to kill Dvalin.

Kiana: For fooling Mondstadt and lying to them about being their allies.

Mei: For killing our friend Teppei and lying to the puppet.

Bronya: For tricking Childe into going after a fake body with no Gnosis inside.

Seele: For awakening Osial and taking advantage of Zhongli's contracts.

Fu Hua: And for the people of Liyue you imperiled...

Signora: Those are ancient history. You certainly love to hold a grudge. The Tsaritsa's dream is the noblest and purest thing in all the world. These other mundane details you insist on mentioning... They're just necessary sacrifices. That's all.

Patrick: We won't let the Tsaritsa get what she wants!

Patrick stomped his right foot with Geo and caused the room to shake.

Kiana: You're trying to take over Teyvat and the Archon's nations!

Mei: You're trying to gain more power over the other six Archons!

Bronya: You're trying to prevent the Archons from getting back to Celestia!

Seele: You're trying to make the Tsaritsa the only one allowed to get to Celestia!

Fu Hua: And you're trying to take control over Celestia!

Signora: Everything you said was wrong. The Tsaritsa is doing none of those things.

Valkyries and Patrick: Liar!

At the door the other Valkyries, ELFs, Captain, Higokumaru, and Tamamo No Mae stepped inside at the door.

Sakura: That's her. That's Signora.

Durandal: The Fair Lady and the 8th Harbinger.

Aether: It's time for us to put a stop to this.

Signora: You? Stop me? Hahaha...

Patrick snapped his fingers then swords materialized all pointing to Signora at point blank. But she was not fazed or frightened.

Patrick: You should be taking us serious! You haven't seen what we can do. I told you back at Northland Bank that it wasn't over and that we would find a way to stop you from stealing another Gnosis and now we're here. To stop you.

Signora: For what it's worth, I've grown tired of seeing you all around as well. But I didn't have you down as someone quite so foolhardy. Before you go saying something you can't take back, remember that you're Inazuma's most wanted criminals... I suggest you consider your circumstances very carefully. Charging into Tenshukaku uninvited and lecturing me in front of the Shogun wasn't the brightest move. Don't you think it's time you stopped digging? I'm not sure you realize quite how much distance there is between us, both in status... and in strength.

Patrick growled then his energy leaked out even more and went higher then he made the swords disappear and then materialized his Divine Key dragon swords ready to fight her.

Patrick: I'll show you a difference between our status and strength.

Before Patrick could charge in...

Aether: We challenge you...

Aether spoke. This caught everyone's attention.

Aether: ...To a duel before the throne!

Signora: ...

Raiden Shogun: Proceed.

Mei went on after what Aether said pretending to understand.

Mei: Thats right!

Mei materialized her sword then the others in the group materialized their weapons.

Signora: My, you're full of surprises today... So you've learned to make the law of the land work for you too, hmm?

Mei: We have no choice. This is the only way.

Signora: I'll admit that I never expected to be in a situation where all of us were on equal footing. You are aware... that the loser must die? Are you sure this is what you want?

Mei: like I said, we have no choice. We know very well that the loser must die.

Patrick: We're going to kill you before Baal does.

Paimon: Guys...

Fu Hua: Stay back Paimon. Go with the others.

Paimon: Ok.

Paimon flies back to the others then Signora steps forward to them.

Signora: Hehehe... then I will deign to share this last dance with you... till death do us part.

Finally they were going to fight against Signora. After a year of playing the game and watching the Beta tests. They were finally going to fight against Signora.

Signora: A lesson on Harbinger power and elegance? Hah... as you wish.

Her floating item disappeared.

Patrick: Finally... some action... RAGH!!!!!

Patrick charges in first very fast. Then he throws a punch on Signora and sends her flying back and crashing through.

Patrick: Finally... We get to have our payback and revenge on the Harbinger who caused us more pain and trouble than the other 2.

An ice spear came at Patrick but he melted it with blue fire. Then he saw Signora come out.

Signora: My, all that anger inside you has really gotten so high. No matter.

Signora summons a group of ice shards in a straight line then fires them at the group but they dodge. They could feel Sheer Cold developing but the Pyro Users used their flames and fill the room with fire. Patrick jumps back then Fu Hua jumps in and shoots fire from her fist. Signora gets out of the way then imbues three ice flowers at the Phoenix. Fu Hua punches them away before they exploded.

Signora hurls a wheel of ice shards that traveled in a circular arc. Fu Hua melts it with fire. A giant ice spear materialized over Kiana but Mei uses her Giant sword from her giant arms and shatters it. Kiana covers her huge sword with fire and rushes towards Signora.

Kiana: This won't be like in Mondstadt!

Kiana lands a direct hit and damages Signora. Then she kicks Signora back with a giant cat paw made of fire.

Kiana: Like our friend Eula would say, "Vengeance will be ours!"

Signora: I don't think so, Valkyrie.

Signora fires homing ice spears at them which they had to avoid. Aether whacks one away with his sword. Bronya materializes lasers and shoots them at Signora. Then Seele sneaks up on Signora with her Scythe covered in Anemo and Geo and delivers a slash behind Signora.

Seele: I may be scared, but I can fight!

While the group was fighting against Signora, Sakura looked at Kujou Sara.

Kallen: What are you thinking?

Sakura: Sara is in the crossfire. I need to get her out of there.

Paimon: But Signora will catch you!

Sakura: I have to do it! We've risked our lives in situations like this and we've managed.

Sakura draws her Sakura Blossom then she breathes and fire ignites on her sword.

Sakura: Flame breathing...

Then she rushes in very fast while getting covered in fire while a shadow from her hair covers her eyes.

Paimon and Higokumaru: Sakura!

Tamamo: Master!

Signora: Fool! Rushing in while in the middle of a battle! You're mine!

Signora teleports to the Sakura's position, about to release a small burst of Cryo upon impact but then the shadow disappears from Sakura's eyes.

Sakura: Rengoku!

Sakura delivers a devastating dashing slash initiated from a high stance on Signora and Signora screams in pain. Sakura then she reaches Kujou Sara, sheathes her sword, and scoops up Sara in her arms then rushes back to the door at a high speed like a ninja.

Patrick: Fu Hua: Let's do it. We can't get the others in the crossfire.

Fu Hua: You got it.

Patrick and Fu Hua stood next to each other then held their right arms out.

Patrick and Fu Hua: We are the bone of our sword.

Blue mana erupted from them.

Signora: What is going on?

Patrick and Fu Hua: Steel is our bodies and fire is our blood. We have created over a thousand blades.

Kiana: You're about to get another lesson on Herrscher power.

Patrick and Fu Hua: Unaware of loss, Nor aware of gain.

Signora: I don't know of what is going on. But I won't let you do it.

Signora teleports to them to try to stop them but Kiana and Mei swinger their swords and hit her causing Signora to fall back a distance.

Patrick and Fu Hua: Withstood pain to create weapons, waiting for one's arrival. We have no regrets. This is the only path.

The Raiden Shogun felt familiar with the move. The others ran outside to not get caught up.

Patrick and Fu Hua: Our whole lives were Unlimited Blade Works!

Mana erupted from the two and their reality marble was made from a huge flash of light. With Fenghuang Down's power, Fu Hua was able to make the same location where she, Kiana, Bronya, and Patrick fought against her other self. The Herrscher of Sentience. Swords appeared and giant stone swords and giant gears. And the sky was orange.

La Signora: What did you... do?

Patrick: The same trick I used when I defeated Tartaglia in his other form. Unlimited Blade Works. Fu Hua and I created a world where it holds an unlimited amount of swords just like how the Raiden Shogun created her Plane of Euthymia. This is where you will meet your end, Signora.

Kiana: Void.

Kiana transforms into the Herrscher of the Void.

Patrick: Fu Hua, Kiana, and Bronya: Trace on.

Hundreds of swords, Void lances, and Keys of Reason materialized over Signora in a circular formation. Then they shoot at a rapid speed. Which lead to Signora getting covered by smoke once the blasts and weapons made contact. Mei snaps her fingers and decides to strike different colors of lightning on Signora.

Patrick: More... ... ...MORE!

They materialized more swords and Keys of Reason while Mei shot more lightning. But then we heard a snap of fingers then an ice storm, the same one that froze Paimon hit us and caused us to fall back. Paimon this time, managed to get out of the way. The smoke was also blown away which revealed Signora inside of an ice tornado. With an ice shield.

[There should be a GIF or video here. Update the app now to see it.]

Signora: Tsk tsk, you've got some nerve laying your hands on me. Harbinger power has become burdensome, I will manifest my destiny anew... Await my emergence and tremble, St. Freya Knights and Valkyries. You have reason to be afraid.

Then she cocoons herself in a giant ice cocoon.

Patrick: Now she's cocooned herself in an ice cocoon like a caterpillar.

Seele: And she's going to turn into an ugly butterfly.

Patrick: Come out of there you pathetic coward!

Patrick shoots really powerful fire from my hands on the cocoon to melt it.

Patrick: You can't stay in there forever, Signora!

Kiana: He's right! Flamescion!

Kiana transforms back into the Herrscher of Flamescion.

Kiana: We're going to force you out!

Kiana covers her sword with fire and was now slashing the cocoon.

Fu Hua transforms into Jingwai then she and her two ELFs also shoot powerful fire at the cocoon.

Bronya materializes energy drills with Geo energy and starts drilling on the cocoon.

Signora: The pale flame smolders...

The cucoon was melting. However, it started to crack as light was coming out of it. Then it turned orange. Then the ice cocoon exploded blowing them away. They got up but we're horrified at the sight. Crimson Lotus Moths flew to where the ice cocoon was then they heard evil laughter.

(2:20)

From the ashes and the smoke, emerged the Crimson Witch of Embers. La Signora. Real name, Rosalyne-Kruzchka Lohefalter.

Kiana: This is her second element!

Patrick: Like Childe, she has a second form and a second element. Pyro.

Signora materialized a fire whip.

Signora: Pale flame, lay waste to this frozen shell and witness my suffering. In fires of sin and retribution, your soul will be incinerated!

She sends the fire whip at them but they dodge.

Patrick: BURN!

Patrick makes a fist and shoots powerful fire from his fist.

Signora: Pathetic.

Signora raises her hand and shoots an even more powerful fire blast from her hand and overpowers Patrick's fire and hits him on impact.

Patrick: Seele!

Seele: Ok! HAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!

Hydro energy bursts out of Seele then she raises her hand then a tidal wave materializes behind everyone. Seele moves her hand forward and the tidal wave moves towards Signora.

Seele: Let's go!

Seele water bends up into the sky while the others fly up.

Mei grabs Aether and carriers him and Paimon. Then the tidal wave hits Signora extinguishing her flames. The group got away. But then Signora reignited her flames and evaporated the water. She looked around for them.

(The music stops)

Signora: Those brats are dead once I find them.

(Outside)

Outside of Tenshukaku, Sakura laid Sara down. The sky had turned cloudy with dark clouds with lightning covering the sky completely.

Sakura: kneeled down.

Sakura: Signora really did hurt her badly. Tamamo, heal her.

Tamamo: You got it. Mikon~

Tamamo kneels down then places her hand on Sara's head and her belly. Then green energy came off of her fingers. It was a few seconds until Tamamo stopped and removed her hands off Sara just before she twitched. She opened her eyes and saw the Valkyries. Then she sat stood up with Sakura and Tamamo.

Sakura: You're safe now Sara.

Kujou Sara: Sakura?

Sakura: Signora knocked you out. Now some of us and the Traveler are fighting against Signora in a duel before the throne.

Durandal: Now they're fighting against her in their own reality to make sure that they kill her.

Kallen: All that anger from what she did to us in Mondstadt and Liyue has really given us a desire to get revenge on her.

Sakura: Sara, we know you're still angry at what has been revealed but you need to stop being angry. It's time we stopped being enemies.

Kujou Sara: Stopped being enemies?

Sakura: I've heard what you said in the Chinju Forest. We can be rivals.

Sakura holds her hand out. Sara hesitates but then she takes it. Finally she smiles with Sakura then they shake.

(Reality Marble)

The group retreated to a safe distance. Fu Hua was back in her Herrscher form.

Seele: Ok... Now the Fair Lady has Pyro. Some of us are at a disadvantage with having Pyro and Cryo. And since I'm the only one with Hydro, I'm the only one who can extinguish her flames. But I've grown a little scared of her and can't fight her alone.

Fu Hua: Now if I only had the ELF, Water's Edge with us.

Paimon: Water's Edge?

Fu Hua: She can use water.

???: If you want water. I'll give you water.

Paimon: Huh? Who said that?

From the sky came a small figure. It revealed to be another ELF. It was the one they needed.

Water's Edge.

Fu Hua and Seele: Water's Edge!

Aether and Paimon: That's Water's Edge?!

Fu Hua: That's her alright. Just the ELF we need.

Kiana: How did you get here?

Water's Edge: I was wandering around Liyue before coming to Inazuma then finding you guys at Tenshukaku fighting against La Signora. So I snuck in and entered into this world. Now you need a fire extinguisher like me.

Patrick: Thats exactly what we need.

Water's Edge: So how do Seele and I fight against Signora?

Fu Hua: I'm coming up with a plan now.

Meanwhile Signora was flying searching for them while blasting fire to try and draw them out.

Signora: Where are you?! I know you're here! Show yourself!

???: Right here!

Two water blasts shot at Signora and exploded on contact.

[There should be a GIF or video here. Update the app now to see it.]

Seele and Water's Edge showed themselves on a stone platform.

Seele: Over here Signora!

The smoke cleared and Signora saw Seele and Water's Edge. She creates a large dark fireball.

Signora: Little girl.

Then she hurls it at Seele. Seele closed her eyes then grips her scythe. She raises her scythe then water materializes on the blade. Then the fire ball was close enough, Seele slashes the fireball in half before it exploded behind her. Then she opens her eyes.

Seele: Water breathing. Second Form: Water Wheel!

Seele jumps up then spins in a wheel with water. Then she slashed through Signora followed by Water's Edge deliver a water slash on Signora too.

Seele: Try and keep up with us!

Water comes out of her legs and she flies away with Water's Edge. Signora spreads her wings and flies after Seele. Signora unfurls her wings and rains down waves of molten rocks at Seele. Seele dodges and slices the molten rocks.

From behind one of the giant swords was Fu Hua and the sword across it behind it was Patrick. They heard Seele pass by.

Fu Hua and Patrick: NOW!

They kick the giant stone swords with Geo and crush Signora as she was passing by and gets caught in between the crash. Fu Hua flies around then forms a fist covered in fire which gets bigger then forms into a falcon. Signora regained her stance only to see Fu Hua so close.

Fu Hua: FALCON PUNCH!

Fu Hua Falcon Punches Signora in the face sending her flying back. Fu Hua chases after her.

Patrick uses Geo and materializes giant stone swords where Signora crashes through them to inflict more pain on her. Then he uses his hammer and slams her down to the ground.

[There should be a GIF or video here. Update the app now to see it.]

Bronya: The Bronya's turn. HDD Bronya. EXE Drive.

Project Bunny glowed then transformed into the same cybernetic jet resembling Neptune's jet. Bronya was not the jet this time. Only her Project Bunny was. It flew high up into the sky.

Bronya: Project Bunny Missiles, fire.

The jet shot 8 missiles this time which then turned into several more smaller missiles which landed a direct hit on Signora. Project Bunny returned back to Bronya and reverted back.

Bronya: Now!

Mei and Aether used their Electro attacks on Signora striking lightning bolts and lightning shurikans on Signora. Kiana charges up while she grips her sword. Then she sends a super powerful Pyro slash at Signora and exploded.

When the smoke cleared, Signora was in a crater weakened from all the attacks sent at her. Patrick lands down then he smashes a Geo boulder on Signora while he was walking to her.

Signora: My loyalty to her majesty the Tsaritsa...

Patrick puts his foot on Signora with force. Then he binds Signora with Geo.

Signora: This isn't how it's supposed to end.

Patrick: You stole from Barbatos and Morax. I really don't care if he did hand it over peacefully. You took advantage of his contracts and made him hand over his Gnosis. You are nothing but an evil villainess with no heart and no mercy! You insult Mondstadt and called it the City of Bards. It's called the City of Freedom you monster! All my anger I've stored I'm going to use it all to kill you.

Patrick summons his Dragon sword cleaver. Then he makes lightning flash behind him creating shadows.

Patrick: Your life ends now.

Patrick raises his sword high.

Patrick: I will not allow you to leave here alive or with another Gnosis.

Underneath her mask, her eyes were widening and she was in a state of horror.

Her life flashed before her eyes in flashbacks. Her old life in Mondstadt, her love Rostum, studying abroad in Sumeru Acadmia, the cataclysm of when Khaenri'ah was destroyed and when Durin attacked Mondstadt, when she returned to Mondstadt to find that Rostum was dead, when she first turned into the Crimson Witch, then lastly meeting the Tsaritsa and obtaining her Cryo Delusion and getting her black mask and dress.

Patrick: HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Patrick swings his sword down... ... ...But Patrick's eyes widened. Signora had broke free and caught his sword with Cryo hands.

Signora: This... Isn't... How... My... Life... Is... Supposed... To... END!

She screams and creates a fire tornado that traps her and Patrick.

Signora: You know nothing about me! What I went through! How I became a Harbinger! I'll show you what happens when you mess with a Fatui Harbinger!

Seele: Big Brother!

Kiana: Get out of there now!

But it was too late. Signora brings the whole fire tornado down and explodes on Patrick.

Kiana and Seele: NO!

From the smoke came Patrick flying back with his sword and crashing into a giant sword which then collapsed down while Patrick falls to the ground. His sword dropped to the ground. Blood was coming out of him and he was almost knocked out.

[There should be a GIF or video here. Update the app now to see it.]

Signora: Immolation... a cherished agony... do you feel it?

Signora smirks as she floats towards Patrick.

Signora: You thought you can kill me, boy? I cannot get killed. I will not get killed until all the Gnoses are in the Tsaritsa's hands and she gets what she wants. What was your name again? Oh yes. Patrick. You tried to fight back against me in Mondstadt but you've failed.

Signora created another large dark fireball. She makes it powerful enough to kill him.

Signora: I should've killed you and your friends back in Mondstadt but doing that would break the Fatui's relations with the Knights of Favonius. Now I will do it. Now Patrick, DIE!

Signora throws it at Patrick. Patrick waited for the fireball to come but...

Kiana jumps in and blocks it with her sword. Then Mei rushes in behind Signora and stabs her with her sword.

Mei: The only one dying here is you! You're the one who's gonna die!

Patrick: Kiana... Mei...

Signora: Trying to save your friend. Pathetic.

Signora summons a Hellfire Butterfly that homes in on Mei but she stops it with her giant arms, pulls her sword out, then retreats back with her giant arms and destroys the Hellfire Butterfly. Meanwhile Kiana manages to push the fire ball away before it explodes.

Seele: Two can play this butterfly game. Water Butterflies!

Seele's Hydro Vision glows then she summons small water butterflies made of pure clean blue water.

Signora: Hellfire Butterflies!

Signora summons small hellfire butterflies. Both send their butterflies at one another which then evaporate on contact. Water's Edge sneaks behind Signora and shoots her with a large water blast. Taking this chance, Kiana scoops up Patrick then flies away. Signora was going to go after them but Mei slashes her with her giant sword from her giant arms.

Mei: You will not lay another single finger on them. Patrick was able to put on armor like Childe and beat him. So can I.

Mei glowed then purple Electro energy radiated out of her then she changes into the Raiden Shogun's clothing and her giant arms and giant sword disappear. Eve in her horns disappeared too. Her Electro Vision started glowing too.

Mei: I refuse to let you kill anyone else or steal another Gnosis!

[There should be a GIF or video here. Update the app now to see it.]

Mei gets engulfed in a purple light.

Purple shogun samurai armor materializes on Mei then she covers herself in a mask then she holds her Herrscher sword as lightning came off of it.

Mei: You will die today Signora!

Mei charges in with her sword.

Once Kiana was far enough she landed on a tall stone pillar then placed Patrick down. Jingwai's Wings and Bronya show up.

Kiana: Signora was drawn into a corner and refused to get killed and made him pay the price.

Jingwai's Wings: He's been burned. And he needs healing.

Bronya: The Bronya and Jingwai's Wings shall heal Patrick.

Bronya summoned her staff then casted green healing magic on Patrick while Jingwai's Wings used her healing powers. The burn marks and all other wounds disappear then Patrick opens his eyes.

Patrick: Kiana?

Kiana: Oh thank god you're okey.

Kiana hugs Patrick then lets him get up.

Patrick: We need to get back into this fight.

Kiana: You're right. Mei senpai needs our help.

Mei was fighting against Signora in her new form and sword. Signora was going to try something but then Patrick and Kiana show up and whack her away with their Herrscher cleavers. Then Mei covers her sword with lightning then strikes Signora.

Patrick: I'm still alive.

Mei: I'm glad that you are.

Mei changes back into her Herrscher form wearing the Raiden Shogun's dress.

Kiana: Now let's finish this witch off for good.

[There should be a GIF or video here. Update the app now to see it.]

Patrick flew fast going around then getting closer to Signora. Patrick got close to her with his sword but she blocked his strike.

Signora: Impossible. How am I losing ground?! To pathetic brats like you?!

Patrick: If we were up against someone else stronger than you, we'd be no match for them even in this reality marble and with the levels we're at right now. You may have beaten us before in Mondstadt and Liyue but this time it's different. We've gotten stronger than before and we were caught off guard in Mondstadt. Our weapons are ready and waiting for anything you've got! We're a step ahead of you!

Patrick shoots yellow lightning from his left hand electrocuting Signora then flying back.

Signora summons her fire whip back to strike Patrick and the 2 Valkyries.

Signora: Damn you! You little brats! Rot in Hell!

Patrick: No you!

Signora sent flocks of Hellfire Butterflies at Patrick but Water's Edge extinguished them all with her water.

Signora: Damn you! I can't believe I have to go all out against brats like you!

Signora screamed as he began to charge up a fire attack. Then Patrick and Fu Hua sent a barrage of swords at her which she got out of the way from. Patrick and Fu Hua created a giant dragon and a giant Phoenix both made of fire then hurled them at Signora causing an explosion on her.

Signora: HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Signora spins herself around and transforms into a blazing tornado that is moving around the arena.

Seele: Whirlpool!

Seele creates a whirlpool above her like in Pokémon and makes it bigger till it was bigger than Signora's fire tornado.

Seele: HAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!

Seele hurls the giant whirlpool and extinguishes Signora's fire tornado.

Bronya: Now!

Aether: Lightning Slash!

Aether uses his Lightning Blade and sends three swift thunder shadows at Signora landing a direct hit. Fu Hua and Patrick hold their hands out then hundreds of swords came out of the ground and shot at Signora but she melts them all with her fires. So Patrick draws a giant stone sword and slams it down on Signora. She sends a homing hellfire butterfly at Patrick.

Patrick Rho Aias!

Patrick uses Rho Aias and blocks the hellfire butterfly. Then he charges in on Signora who uses her fire whip and sends a long range attack. Patrick creates holds his right hand out and creates Lostvayne.

Patrick: Full Counter!

Patrick reflects the fire whip with the sword and the fire whip hits Signora then Patrick slashes through Signora's waist.

Patrick: Mei, now!

Mei: HA!

Mei slashes through Signora with lightning covering her sword and makes Signora scream in pain. Patrick makes the sword disappear then re-summons his Dragon Sword cleaver.

Signora: I'll grant you brats this. You've managed to get past my status and strength. For now!

Signora tried to attack again but Patrick and Mei charge in with their swords together at the front.

Patrick and Mei: GO TO HELLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Then their swords went through Signora's chest. Then the camera zooms out then everything flashes. Patrick and Fu Hua turned off the reality marble and returned back to Tenshukaku where Signora automatically changed back to normal and falls to the ground defeated.

After the vicious battle, Signora finally lies defeated at their hands.

Signora: So strong... But... But how...

The door opened and the others including Sara stepped inside. Patrick took notice.

Patrick: Theresa! Restrain her!

Theresa: Right! Restrain her Judah!

Theresa uses Oath of Judah and chains Signora so she can't escape.

Signora: Agh! Let me go!

Theresa: You're not going anywhere you witch. My chains never let anyone escape.

As per the rules of a duel before the throne, the vanquished will be executed. Patrick raises his sword.

Patrick: You've lost Signora. And now it's time to pay the price for everything you've done to us.

Signora: Stay away!

Patrick: I won't. You stole Venti's Gnosis. You tried to kill the people of Liyue. And you took advantage of Morax's contracts and made him hand over his Gnosis. Now you must pay the price. Get out of this nation and never come back!

[There should be a GIF or video here. Update the app now to see it.]

Signora: Diplomatic Immunity!

Patrick covers his right fist with fire and punches Signora in the face so hard that it caused blood to come out of her.

Patrick: It's just been revoked. (Nailed it! I've always wanted to say that line!)

Raiden Shogun: And who gives you the authority to kill her?

Patrick: I want to do it! She caused us so much pain that I want to be the one to kill her!

Raiden Shogun: Only I am the one who shall execute the one who has lost. Let me do it or else I will execute you too.

Patrick was going to object again but then he makes his sword disappear.

Patrick: Fine.

Though her fate is sealed, Signora remains indignant.

The Raiden Shogun walks down from the Throne, which puts the Valkyries and Aether on guard, but she walks past them and towards Signora with her Musou No Hitotachi. Patrick walks past the Raiden Shogun.

Patrick: Time to die Signora.

The Harbinger tries to break free from Theresa's chains.

Signora: I am a Snezhnayan diplomat. You know what happens if you lay a finger on me... I swear, if you strike me, I will make sure... The Fatui will make sure that your precious Inazuma... Stop! I order you! And you! Filthy rats... All of you!!!

In a final act of desperation, Signora breaks free of Theresa's chains and attacks the Raiden Shogun. However, the Raiden Shogun utterly disregards her threats, executing divine punishment all the same. Being more faster she slashes through Signora with one strike.

Patrick and Mei: Now go to Hell, thot.

The Raiden Shogun executes Signora with the Musou no Hitotachi. Signora gets engulfed in a column of lightning. The party covered their eyes. When they uncovered them, they saw Signora get disolved into fire particles.

Patrick: Good riddance.

Kiana: She's gone.

Patrick: This is why I will never fall in love with you Signora. Because your evil, wicked, and have no kindness or mercy. You have nothing but pure hate and you've caused nothing but trouble to Teyvat. And that's why I will never like you. Now your diplomatic immunity to Inazuma will get revoked. You will never hurt anyone ever again.

[There should be a GIF or video here. Update the app now to see it.]

Patrick: This is why you lost, Signora. Because you made us angry and pissed us off after what happened in Mondstadt and Liyue.

The camera zoomed out where Signora was before getting killed then Jojo text appeared.

La Signora. The Fair Lady. Number 8 of the Fatui Harbingers. Deceased.

(End music at 0:20)

Raiden Shogun: You are the enemies of eternity... But as the victor, I acknowledge your honor. Therefore... I shall allow you to leave Tenshukaku alive.

Mei: Really? Are you sure?

Raiden Shogun: Yes.

Patrick walks to where Signora was then picks up her mask.

Patrick: You will never steal another Gnosis or kill anyone again. Your Diplomatic Immunity has just been revoked.

Kiana: Is she really dead?

Patrick: She is... but we can't be too sure of that... any trace of her soul?

Fu Hua: ... ...I sense her soul... she's leaving this place.

Kiana: If there's even a chance that she comes back to life from the dead...

Patrick: We'll kill her again. Now we keep her mask as a trophy showing that we killed her. Let's go.

The fighters who fought Signora proceeded to leave. The others followed but Sara decided to stay.

Patrick: After a year of being unsatisfied... La Signora is finally dead.
