Team Vexus

Team Vexus, a GX-based all-girl team, is the first main antagonists in the Amethyst Angel Adventures series. What started out as a group of three turned into an effectively six-girl team despite having seven members. Team Vexus originally started out as a branch of the Terralon Rogues, becoming a faction of their own when the Rogues were killed during a confrontation with XQ. Of the seven Team Vexus members, three are former members of Cipher, two formerly of Team Magma, and two who had no known prior affiliation. The team's members are codenamed using the letters of the Greek alphabet (a similar codename style used by the Metroid Squad, which had four of their members change codenames), and willingly disbanded after the events of Colosseum.

History
Team Vexus first formed at some point following one of former Cipher Peon Nella Jay's plots to get a ten-year-old girl out of the equation permanently for something said girl never even did - that was because Dark Vector agent Doven Malfoy, who had Nella under an Imperius Curse, believed the ten-year-old to be a potential threat (she was later proven correct, as said ten-year-old happened to be the XQ co-founders' cousin). After officially forming, Doven handed the five members amulets she designed, each with a concealed Imperius Curse with which she could control them; although she succeeded in equipping them to Nella, Venus Jarrett, Amber Jansen, and Ashley Stevens, Georgia Millar struck Doven in the left shoulder with a crimson lightning attack - discovering the weakness to the force barrier in the amulets in the process, which led to her assignment as XQ's Team Vexus insider. The first few plots as a team weren't all that big, allowing Georgia to sit out as Nella and Venus had assistance from the new iteration of the Terralon Rogues (going back to the original nature after a group led by Katelyn Sloan focused solely on thefts that involved returning an item to its original owner instead of the other way around, assisting in the rescue of the ten-year-old Nella had been targeting) until one skirmish with XQ - a battle that saw the crimefighting group's then-'ultimate weapon', fusion warrior Kendrixara, get involved - where the Rogues were killed as a result of the sheer power of Kendrixara (Hollie's main fusion warrior at the time), then at the Ultimate level.

Without help from the Rogues, Doven started attempting to put another amulet on Georgia to make her assist in the team's plans. However, none of them succeeded, some due to a secret heads-up call to XQ by Georgia and others (Nella's plans to rape young girls) via automatic detection by the main rescuer from the plot before Team Vexus formed. One plan was eventually created by Venus, but Rochelle (as she was now mainly being referred to as by allies; her new, taller look made Team Vexus begin using her Z29 codename for a while) was quick to detect the situation, using help from Jet piloting the XKRS Solaris GT and stopped it early enough. The GX-based crime group led by Nella (in the field, for Doven was the true behind-the-scenes leader), after picking up a new member in another former Cipher agent, Exinn James, would then enter the OZ system's take on the dimension where Venus' plot had taken place, quickly getting involved in a skirmish with six girls (one had super strength that would only activate under certain conditions, and XQ captain Jet Brazie managed to trick Nella into falling for the ability, which led to her being injured from Jet executing an Attitude Adjustment in the middle of which Nella took an RKO, and another, already at Nova Legend level, would become the main thorn in Nella's side following an electric ability-acquiring Ultimate Impact rush on Ashley). Exinn's first plot would not succeed (due to her paying Amber, aware of Georgia's plan to hit an electrically-charged Spear on Ashley after foiling Exinn's plan, to drop her protective Domed Energy Shield early and confirm her plan as a success - Georgia was aware of the threat and had counter-planned for it, grabbing the intended victim before going 'Bolt Mode', and after revealing her inspiration for the plan Exinn took a Space Mach Attack from Anise); however, in the following fight brewing up Nella's plan to keep Rochelle and Dawn from assisting backfired to the point a second Attitude Adjustment/RKO combination was used on the Team Vexus leader.

Several plots later failed, mainly via XQ, until the point where one attempt to think up a new one was interrupted when Anise landed an electrically-charged hit to Ashley's back when none of them were looking (this incident following a dodgeball incident while Team Vexus was trying to recover from injuries sustained the plan before then) - Anise, a Rune Angel (and the Alpha of a massive Level 4-Omega Soul Bond centered around then-XQ captain Jet), had a head start on her teammates and her electrified impact with Ashely caught the other Team Vexus members' attention enabling the other Rune Angels to slip past (at a run where the main victim of Exinn's plan told the GX girls they were coming due to her heels) without interference. The destination the group of six OZ girls were headed to was what led to Team Vexus failing to recognize Anise with a new look and instead refer to her by her newly-coined ZR1 codename (up until the ten-year-old girl Nella had been targeting ascended into the eleventh XZ Series transformation, with an outfit that caused Nella to remember Anise). A little later Nella scored her first confirmed kill, but that just made her team's situation worse as Anise promptly boosted straight to her ace form and really did some damage to the blonde Team Vexus leader. A second confirmed kill by Nella would see Anise jump straight to Nova Legend again (in the ensuing fight with the redhead she took an out of nowhere Final Shine Attack in her left side from Natsume, who had hit Nova Legend herself with an assist from Anise), and afterwards Nella, having had nightmares of Anise naturally having XQ backup for a while since the second AA/RKO, had those nightmares confirmed when Anise revealed herself as an XQ agent (earning the spot through her and Jet activating the Bond on a sex-activated trigger - fortunately the easier of the more well-known two - following a Jet flirt countering one by a then-disguised Anise). At this moment Nella started executing plans in other dimensions, but with Anise getting increasingly more powerful and continuing to pop up wherever a Team Vexus plan was occurring (as an XQ agent Anise became able to travel dimensions at will) Nella started getting desperate. It was at that time she discovered that Z29, the blonde with amethyst highlights, was the 'six-year-old' girl responsible for breaking up her first rape scheme.

At the time Nella made her discovery Rochelle was at the ninth XZ Series transformation, Dawn at the tenth, and Anise a Nova Legend, the top form of the first tier (by this time XQ had added a second OZ native agent in their third 07, Rosalina, a Super Saiyan 2 when the plot that would become the beginning of an even worse nightmare for Nella occurred, with navigation-troubled Burgundy Maxwell now on Team Vexus) the teal-highlighted blonde discovered the inspiration for the now-amethyst-highlighted blonde's original ascent into the Super Saiyan state: a rape that Rochelle was unable to prevent the victim from getting pregnant (back when Rochelle was only eleven, and despite her best efforts to prevent it with a life-link spell). In order to break the Ultimate-level blonde Nella and her goons captured the victim of that rape and set up a second one on her with the intent of breaking Rochelle by making her reexperience memories from her past (unbeknownst to Team Vexus Georgia had already informed Rochelle of the plot). The plan started off okay, with the groups paired as Venus and Exinn, Amber and Ashley (who had been teammates before Team Vexus), and Nella forcing Georgia to stick with her (which turned out to be a major mistake); secretly alerting the blonde's target of who was where and suggesting taking off the unguarded direction, Georgia then attacked Nella with the intent to make the target run from them in the suggested direction (which worked). Using her electric powers, Georgia then pinned Nella to the ground (using her abilities to create chain-bands pinning Nella's arms, legs, and neck to the ground after deploying an electric claw to forcibly expose the blonde's intimate areas) and subsequently, with a pair of electrically-summoned sexual devices, violated Nella; this brought the other members to where the attack was happening, so Georgia could reveal the truth on how she ended up with the team. When they finally managed to capture their target and start the plan, it worked for about a minute when, for the Team Vexus leader, disaster struck in the form of Rochelle's Final Trigger breaking, causing the blonde XQ girl, now with the 'Pink Inferno' codename due to her unique pyrokinetic ability, to become the third, then-eldest (at 17) Nova Legend. To add further insult to injury Rochelle then proceeded to turn Nella's plan against her, recreating her rescue of Dawn (down to the help from the Terralon Rogue iteration led by now-named Karin Stewart, with to-the-millisecond time gaps between Dragon Fist activations by the former Rogues) to end up breaking Alpha temporarily (all according to a plan made by Rochelle and Georgia in secret). After the incident Nella and her buddies stayed relatively low on the radar, but that didn't last long when she sensed Dawn's power level skyrocket via a Final Trigger break, and realized ZR1 was Anise by means of looking at Dawn's outfit in her Nova Legend form. That November 2 Team Vexus proceeded to get into a six-on-five fight with the Rune Angels (who fought back a lot better than they were expecting, on account of Anise giving them a heads-up after Georgia informed her that Nella had figured her out); Exinn was twice knocked out by XQ second-in-command Hollie Brazie's signature, self-invented spell, fired by the blonde of the Rune Angels and Natsume Izayoi (who would become an XQ agent herself shortly afterwards) hit an F5, an RKO, and a Fatal Arrow (an Anise-created Twist of Fate variant named after Chitose Karasuma's signature Emblem Frame weapon of the same name) on Nella, Amber, and an unconscious Exinn respectively before Burgundy managed to knock her out with a Stunning Spell after taking a superkick from Lily (who became an XQ agent herself in the midst of the Dark Vector's post-Doven activity phase while Anise was on a mission-slash-party challenge on her seventeenth birthday). By the time Anise arrived on the scene Team Vexus had all seven members still standing despite obvious damage to Exinn, and the only Rune Angel still conscious was Lily; Nella proceeded to break Lily's arm, but that led to an even greater nightmare for the blonde leader in the form of the birth of XQ's new 'ultimate weapon' Zelikarin after Anise, Rochelle, and Dawn merged into one. The ensuing lopsided fight saw all every Team Vexus member except Georgia get pummeled by the newly-fused warrior; Nella got the worst of it.

Following a battle in which it was 'a couple thousand something against sixteen' (according to Nella, Falcon's Shadow chapter 6) that ended with the group of sixteen winning (mainly via Anise decimating the unmanned ships aiding Team Vexus with her Emblem Frame's recently-installed Nova Wrecker, though Lily got nine trying to hit Nella's, the blonde Moon Angel trying to get Venus' claiming six, and two attempts by the victim of Exinn's plot (since Georgia foiled the 'use liquid to expose her breasts' plan Exinn had to resort to a riskier Zelkorix plot that resulted in Exinn being captured and spending the following ten weeks being tortured by Natsume for info on Kara's location) to hit the ship of the black-haired girl where Nella got clipped on the successful second try; they were responding to Team Vexus jumping the unidentified JB-Omega-based XJN-008, and Anise's group included two other XJN Frames (Dominique Sakuraba and Jasmine Azeat, 001 and 002 respectively), plus Jet Cody Brazie (the mastermind of the series' titular codename Anise was given) in the Blaze Thunder) Nella disappeared into the GD system in an attempt to use the Shadow Queen for a major power level boost in order to handle Anise. By this point Nella was starting to fight Doven's Imperius Curse, and in a fight against Anise when they bumped into each other in Glitzville (Anise up an ally compared to where Mario would normally be in the video game at that point, having convinced Vivian to change sides in chasing the second Star) Anise destroyed her first amulet of that mission. Before Doven, in a disguise form under the 'D60' moniker, appeared, Nella revealed the Dark Vector operative, using the original Imperius Curse-emitting amulet that led to the force barriers on the Team Vexus ones, was the mastermind behind Kara's disappearance, causing Anise (and Natsume, when Anise subsequently relayed it to her) to reach the Nova Legend Goddess form. Nella could only find one of the Crystal Stars needed to access the Palace of Shadow (specifically the one with the strongest special move of the bunch, made of crystal) on account of the fact Jet Keith Brazie, XQ captain, intercepted the Magical Map that acted as a radar to find them and gave it to Anise. Nella then gave the Star to Crump (by which point Doven had put a second amulet on her). Unfortunately for Nella, this move backfired horribly: Her attempt at using a portal to redirect an Anise-thrown Destructo Disc at Hollie went through a second one which sent it through the reactor core of Crump's second mecha, allowing Hollie to grab the Star. When Nella then triggered Hollie's ascent into the fifth Nova Legend (the then-19 golden-blonde surpassing Rochelle as the eldest to access the form) by revealing the presence of a Reductor Curse in the Omega Blitz she hit Hollie with (on the one time she could remember something), Hollie experienced the Chaos Reaction behind her later Arsenal Lock mandating fishnet stockings with thong high heels. Once Nella reached the Shadow Queen (having used Hollie's ascent, which distracted Anise, as a cover to escape from the XQ duo) her attempt at fusing with the kidnapped princess was foiled when the Potara earrings she tried to use were swiped by Anise (Anise and Hollie, now with Rochelle and Dawn in tow, had caught up to her in time). In desperation, Nella fused directly with the Shadow Queen - only for it to be broken by a now-fused Zelikarin less than a minute later, Hollie having broken the Shadow Queen's invincibility with the Crystal Stars. Although Zelikarin wasn't at her true strength (Anise's earlier NLG ascent made the power balance between the three fusees uneven), she still easily thrashed Nella, before de-fusing so Anise could destroy the new amulet. Doven subsequently returned, but was quickly knocked out of her D60 guise when Natsume (revealing Nella's revelation to Anise about Kara's disappearance, which the redhead then relayed to her younger teammate causing her own NLG ascent) hit Doven from behind. Before Doven left, Natsume revealed a thoroughly shocking piece of information (which, fortunately for Doven when she was subsequently betrayed by the Dark Vector, was never revealed to them): Doven and another female Dark Vector agent were linked in the very Soul Bond type the Dark Vector was trying to permanently eliminate.

Although Team Vexus never appeared in GD Orre, Anise encountered the local variants of two of the group's three former Cipher members (Beta, whose Epsilon-voiced variant's cellphone Anise borrowed to reveal that she had found Kara and had her take refuge in XQ Side Dimension 989, and Alpha, whose variant, Nicole Morneau, was Kara's kidnapper). Anise's vastly changed appearance had initially confused Nicole, but a devastating kick to her knee jogged her memory (Anise had fought Nicole in trying to stop the kidnapping, and had even managed to remove the original amulet for Stacy Griffin (a platform heel specialist who had accompanied Anise's group before going to 989 with Kara) to destroy (leading to the Team Vexus amulets' force barriers) following such a kick to the same knee). Notably, the Dark Vector (Doven in particular) had failed to detect a lesbian Soul Bond between Nicole and Desiree Williams, greatly accelerating the activation point for Nella's own (leading to the Dark Vector betraying Doven).

Following the events in GD Orre, Nella would enter an F-Zero league paired with Black Shadow while using the No. 69 Vexus Jaguar machine. Unfortunately, when she and Black Shadow encountered Captain Falcon, she found that Anise (using a No. 05 amethyst version of the Blue Falcon) had paired with the bounty hunter. Anise had been informed by then that Nella was in the dimension (both Nella and J.C. assumed Jet's first scan had missed her energy signature and the second one located it, when it was actually Georgia who informed Anise), and Nella's inability to remember her opponents' skills burned her and Black Shadow twice in the confrontation (after the J.C.-developed Chrono Boost on Anise's F-Zero machine saved her and an injured Jody Summer from a massive energy stream Nella fired at the building they were escaping from); Nella had first forgotten Anise knew Solid Transparency, then her ability to copy opponents' moves (with the latter's use against Black Shadow distracting Nella long enough for Anise and Captain Falcon to escape triggering Nella's third expletive that sequence when she realized they took advantage of her distraction and fled). In the actual race Nella, who took out one of the Meteors almost immediately, and Black Shadow were both vying for the win (against Anise and Captain Falcon, both of whom finished ahead of Black Shadow - Nella's fourth-place finish triggered an expletive-filled TeamFourStar Vegeta rant - with Anise winning). After losing Black Shadow to Deathborn, Nella would follow Anise to where she raced the villain, with Anise boosting away from a side attack by Nella when she got side-by-side in a three-wide scenario; notably, Nella overpowered the Imperius Curse emitting from her latest amulet long enough to make the motion that eventually saved Anise's life (Deathborn was clueless and as such took the hit that killed him once the curse controlling Nella reactivated).

While Anise was participating in a Hunger Games event disguised as the chosen Tribute Jasmine 'Glimmer' Kendall Nella was suddenly approached by her lesbian soulmate Kendra, who had gained the ability to warp directly to her position on Nicole and Desiree's Bond activation. While the six Team Vexus members still had Doven's amulets, Burgundy had suggested they keep them in the event one of them runs into a Dimension Authority member to use as evidence of their unwilling control. As a result, none of them would make an appearance after an encounter during the Castle Crashers mission by Anise and three XQ teammates where Exinn learned she couldn't pee without wetting herself (because she had suffered ten rapes by Doven immediately following a forced wetting - four had triggered the issue and five further had cost her the ability to take advantage of a bathroom to wet herself in), until Burgundy turned up to save XQ agent Amanda Lanphear from being raped by a male Dark Vector agent right after a nude, dildo-violated Anise and pseudo-native teammate Kiara had beaten a forcibly-turned Arachnolia.

Members

 * Nella Jay (Alpha), field leader
 * Venus Jarrett (Beta), second-in-command
 * Georgia Millar (Gamma), XQ's Team Vexus insider (never officially a member), thunderbender with access to crimson lightning (one notable use of it led to her insider status for it revealed the weakness in the force barriers on the Doven-designed Imperius Curse-emitting amulets)
 * Amber Jansen (Delta), mostly a spectator
 * Ashley Stevens (Epsilon), frequently targeted by electrified physical attacks by thunderbenders
 * Exinn James (Zeta), known to pay teammates to ensure her plots succeed, the last Team Vexus member to encounter an XQ operative before Doven (the cause of her inability to pee without wetting herself, to the extent that she can't even use a bathroom as a shortcut when doing so) was betrayed. Because of her Doven-induced panty-wetting issue, Exinn was the only team member without access to the UGG boots option (a surprisingly smart move on Doven's part, especially given the former Dark Vector greenette's uber-hardcore boot fetish).  Wasn't revealed until 2309 (shortly after Doven's rescue by Anise and subsequent impregnation by Jet in a massive battle with her fetish) that Exinn had been wetting herself all her life, with a preference for bed wetting, and had pretended to be a rape victim so she could only pee in her panties.
 * Burgundy Maxwell (Eta), known to get the team lost at times. Her suggestion that the controlled members keep the amulets as evidence in the event they encounter a Dimension Authority member was her using the thinking style that eventually led to Level 5-Eta - the XQ Way
