Cat Paw Arena: Tournament Start, First Match
"EITO, MAGUS, PLEASE ENTER THE ARENA!"
A voice echoes throughout this golden stadium. A golden-eyed cat person sits at a booth high in the stands, holding a microphone.
Down in the center is what seems to be a large, modified wresting ring. Multiple plastic pillars litter the surface. Surrounding the outside is a red circle.
"I REPEAT, PLEASE ENTER THE RING!"
Eito walks in,looking around him at the stadium,impressed by it's mere size.
"Armed and ready!"
Magus walks to the ring.
Greetings. I´m ready to fight.
"Good, good! Let me explain a few ground rules. The match is over when one of you is knocked out or forced out of the red ring surrounding our little arena. Unlike most tournaments, any and all skills, items, and whatnot are allowed. But be aware of the costs! Anyway, use the arena and its pillars to your advantage!"
Panthera Dox grins and rings a bell.
"Ready.... BEGIN!"
Eito dashes behind a pillar,quickly drawing his gun and loading it with regular ammo.
"Here we fuckin' go..."
alright then...
Magus begins to spin his scythe adobe him chargingit with electricity, after that he unsleashed two electrical slashes
PM: 92
"Magic,as expected..."
Eito sprints out of cover,wildly shooting twice at Magus,getting barely touched in the foot,by one of the slashes. He is mildly slowed down as he dashes to another pillar,huffing.
Ammo:13/15
Magus blocked the first bullet, but the second one grazed his left arm, luckily it is just a chafing
He is fast... and he will use the pillars... i have an idea.
Magus touched the gound with his scythe to create a little ice pillar and frozing part of the ring, he kicked it to turn it into little sharp fragments, going violently to Eito´s position,
PM: 86.
"Oh fuck!"
Eito dives behind one of the pillars,three of the shards grazing his back,thankfully not doing damage due to his jacket on top of his relatively thick but unarmored shirt being on top. The rest only stab the pillar.
"Alright,ice,electricity..."
Eito stays behind his pillar,blindly shooting thrice behind him.
Ammo:10/15
(edited by Eito)
A shot pierced his cape, another shot grazed his right leg, but his boot protected him, the last shoot missed.
that happens when you shoot without looking.
Magus dashed to the pillar, with his left arm he slashed it from the left with his scythe, while with the right hand he is preparing a fire skill.
PM:80
"Diversionary tactics are MY strategy,damnit!"
Eito rolls back,though not quite fast or far enough. The scythe grazes him,drawing blood while the fire singes him,not really doing much other than making his jacket catch on fire and briefly making him flinch. He steadies himself,though not very well,and unloads his clip on Magus.
Ammo:Empty. Eito will be unable to attack due to reloading
(edited by Eito)
Magus blocked three shoots with his cythe, but he wasn´t used to that weapons, because two bullets hits him in the abdomen, one shot heavily grazed his right arm, adove the elbow, two bullets grazed the left leg, one failed cutting a bit of Magus hair and the last one grazed his right ear.
stupid gun!
Magus casts a magic circle behind him and from it a black wind appears, going directly to Eito´s hands
PM:68
"I paid 2300 yen for this fucking thing,you can fuck right off with that!"
Eito quickly shoves the gun into his jacket,though the clip he was inserting into it goes flying.
"Goddamnit!"
Eito starts running to another pillar,though with noticable heavy breathing. He pulls out another clip,this one red.
Reload Interrupted. Eito will be unable to attack.
Magus started to bleed form the previous wounds, it started to dirty his clothes.
i don´t feel like playing the mouse and cat anymore...
Magus casts another magic circle this time is a yellow one, while he couched down to touch the ground with his finger.
i´m tired of this hide.
magus created an ice way to the pillar what quckly turned to water, the water was around the pillar where Eito was hiding, then from the magic circle a thunder felt to the water, while magus jumped back.
PM:44.
"Aw,you sneaky motherfucker..."
Eito instead fishes out another clip,this one a cold blue. It is filled with Fire and Wind Dust bullets.
"Fortunately for me,i'm also a sneaky motherfucker."
He simply shoots at the water three times,making it freeze. He carefully walks across and the dashes for another pillar.
Ammo:12/15
Magus gave Eito a sarcastic look,
another pillar? why i´m not surpised? but that ends now.
Magus used his right arm to trhow fire balls to each pillars in order to destroy them, after that, Magus looked at Eito, while takes a defensive posture.
i´m waiting.
PM: 35.
"Fuck."
Eito raises his gun to fire at Magus' head.
"You certainly are!"
He shoots twice,only to change target and shoot 5 times at his enemy's legs. He then starts jogging to the left.
Ice Ammo:5/15
(edited by Eito)
Magus blocked the shots aiming his head and one of the bullets aiming his legs, the other two bullets hit his left leg, forcing him to crouch.
i resisted the shadows... this is nothing...
Magus hardly stands up and covers himself with his cape (except his eyes and hair), after that he begins to speak in an ancient language.
...
...
...
...
PM: 20.
"That never means anything good."
Eito runs up to Magus and shoots the other five Ice bullets in the clip. He backs off and starts replacing the clip with another that's filled with Fire and Water Dust.
"Okay..."
He shoots the bullets all around the arena,making steam pop up everywhere and obscuring vision.
"Here we fucking go..."
Ammo:Reloading
The ice bullets hits Magus leaving little ice fragments around his body, after that Magus opened his arms
Black hole!
Under Magus a black hole appeared, devouring everything in a range of 3 Metres, the wind is going violently to the hole while Magus floats in the middle, after a few seconds Magus closed it.
Magus covered himslef with his cape again, he started to breath a bit heavy now
PM: 22.
Eito throws his coat behind him as he starts running as fast as he can,not quite managing to escape the black hole's power.
"Nonononononononono!"
Eito starts sliding backwards.
"NOT TODAY!"
He pulls out his curved knives,stabbing them into the wooden floor.
"FUCK YOU,BLACK HOLE!"
Eito draws back the knives,getting just a tad bit closer to the hole before stabbing them into the floor again,deeper inside. His shoes fly off but the rest of him still lives.
Ammo:???
(edited by Eito)
"Oh dear, looks like our contestant is-"
Panthera Dox pauses, legitimately surprised that Eito actually lived that.
"Huh. Nevermind. Carry on, folks!"
They jot something down and continue to observe the match.
(edited by Yuri-Nosneko)
Magus looks at Eito, he is still breathing heavily
never giving up... it reminds me to that frog...
Magus takes out his cythe and dashes to Eito.
Don´t think you´ve won... because I´m not done yet!!!
PM:25.
Eito draws back his knives and rolls back,getting on his feet. He gets into combat position,wielding both of them.
"COME AT ME BRO!"
When Magus got closer to Eito he slashed from the left with his scythe, Magus knew Eito is fast but he is prepared for it.
PM: 29.
(edited by Magus)
Eito leans back,the scythe once again grazing him,drawing more blood from the same arm. Eito doesn't seem to care much as he runs backwards a fair bit. He's not attacking or speaking. Just staring. His eyes are glowing crimson.
Magus jumped back and covered himslef with his cape again, he started to speak again in an ancient language. Magus eyes turned even more red for the fury and the pain he is feeling.
...
...
...
...
PM: 11.
Eito walks casually towards Magus,with an empty stare. He brandished his knives.
"Since I can't deal with you normally,guess i'll have to do it in a... More interesting way."
Eito starts sprinting,laughing like an insane man. Any that would listen could hear two voices in that laugh.
(edited by Eito)
Something is wrong... I should be carefull, even now...
...
...
...
...
PM: 12.
Eito throws a knife at Magus with far more power and accuracy than he should. The laughing gets louder,almost supernaturally so.
"MY TIME HAS COME!"
The hysterical teen continues sprinting,once again,faster than any man should be able to. He's almost reached Magus.
(edited by Eito)
A wave of darkness comes from Magus
my time also came.
The moment Magus opened his arm a little triangle appeared in front of him, it is a balck triangle with another white triangle inside.
The knife stabs his left arm, but Magus doesn´t feel it
Dark matter.
The tryangle goes directly to Eito and stops in front of him, at Milimetres of his chest to unleash a strong blast of pure darkness
PM: 14.
Eito's breath is caught in his throat,the laughing stops. For a moment,there is a real look of fear in Eito's eyes as they turn back to their normal brown. It is once again replaced by a mad grin and crimson eyes.
"THIS IS NOTHING!"
The darkness assaults Eito,dealing visible damage. He doesn't stop. He uses inhuman power to jump straight at Magus and stab him right in the chest.
Magus cought blood when he got stabbed, but he have been waiting that... because Magus grabbed his arm to not let him go.
You are mine now!!
Magus throw his scythe to the ground under Eito, frozening everything around and frozering Eito and a bit of Magus chest.
Magus casts an ice scythe using his free arm and aims it to Eito's head.
Give up.
"Is this it, folks? Uh... let's see... I guess a forced surrender counts as a knockout?"
Panthera Dox waits for whatever comes next, pen and notepad at ready.
Eito,or whatever is in there,moves his head closer,his eyes meeting Magus'. He smiling genuinely.
"Do it."
"Or are you too scared to kill little ol' me?"
"Well, he could always just beat you up in this state. Probably bonk you on the head or something."
Pantera Dox shrugs as they chime in.
"I'm kinda trying to not have anybody actually die. Magic helps prevent deaths, but still."
Magus shakes and breaks the ice... but he falls to the ground, while he falls he also sees Eito falling...
Damnit...
PM:1.
As Magus falls,he sees Eito's eyes turning back to normal. He swears he can hear a 'Thank you',before the ice breaks and Eito falls to the ground.
"..."
"So... uh... I left to get a sandwich and they're still lying there, so... looks like we'll tally up the scores!"
With a flourish, the feline goes to calculate the results.
"Hm... This is quite a close match... And I guess I can give some wiggle room due to that... And yes... By a meager 1 point, Eito wins! Now somebody heal the poor guys."
Magus stands up.
I... I don't need it...
Magus takes a feep breath.
Congratulations Eito, I hope to fight with you another time, farewell.
Magus jumps to the shadows and disappears.
Eito doesn't respond. He's unconscious.
"Yeah, I'm gonna grab him. Next match is in a bit over an hour, folks!"
Panthera Dox shifts into the form of a silver cat, hops down to the stage, then turns back. They pick up Eito and toss him on a bench or something for some egyptian-like feline humanoids to heal him. With a quick clap of Panthera Dox's hands, the arena is as good as new.
"Our next match shall be... Sonic versus Sayaka and Kotori! Contestants, please enter the battlefield!"
From atop the arena a young, blue-haired girl looks down in anticipation. Once the announcement is made, she leaps forward, forming a small circle of notes below her in order to jump even higher before landing near the middle of the arena, fist first, with a resounding *crack*.... Followed by a shout as the young girl slowly stands up, arm dislocated. Another circle of music notes glows blue beneath her feet as her arm shifts back to its normal spot, leaving only slight cracking in the arena as evidence of her actions
Superhero landings..... Not as much fun as expected. But I'm here.
Sayaka gives Panthera a thumbs up as she awaits the other competitors
OOC: Also, how large is the arena? THat's kinda an important thing to know when trying to ring someone out
Kotori runs up to the arena, out of breath
I! I'm not late! I swear!
Within the blink of an eye, the blue hedgehog is standing on the edge of arena, tapping his foot as if he'd been there the entire time.
So this is it huh? I warn ya, I'm stronger than I look. If you blink you just might miss me.
With a cocky grin on his face, Sonic casually walks closer to the center. When he's next to Sayaka he offers her a handshake.
Let's make this fun for all of us, yeah?
Sayaka smiles at Kotori and started to wave before Sonic appears in the area.... He’s blue, about her height, wearing only shoes ang glo.... Come to think of it, he kinda looks like something she might find on the job. Regardless, she flashes her opponent a wide grin
Pleasure to meet ya.... Sonic, I take it.
The young girl puts out her hand and accepts Sonic’s handshake before the match
Don’t hold back on me alright? I might not look like much, but I can take care of myself
ooc: I'd say the size is... about 70 feet on each side of this square area.
"Alright, everyone's here! As said before, the match ends when all contestants on either side are tossed outta the ring or knocked out! Now, begin!"
(The 7'3 man watches from afar) WOOOOO
That's my name alright, also known as the fastest thing alive. Alright then, let's get this party started!
With his speed, Sonic quickly runs to put some distance between himself and his opponents.
I'm ready for anything you've got! Catch me if you can!
The hedgehog curls into a ball and starts revving up like a car tire. A green glow starts to encompass him.
Hm...betting he's gonna be a glass cannon
Kotori takes a single step back, putting herself at the edge of the arena, then infuses herself with earth, a determined look in her eyes
Come at me rodent!
AY, K, YA DO KNOW ITS SAYAKA AND HIM, RIGHT!!
"Chill out,will you?"
Apollo puts one hand on his head and the other on Zane's shoulder.
"I've still got a hangover."
and you can call me Sayaka Miki, hero extraordinaire.
Sayaka grins and dashes off after Sonic, a flash of blue against the plain arena, as soon as he starts running. The young girl draws her sword, which appears to be some sort of custom katana with a cutlass-like handguard, and, especially in such a small arena, would be able to catch up with Sonic with only a second or two for him to rev up
told you not to underestimate me
The young girl dives towards Sonic, flat of her blade aimed to shove the hedgehog out of the arena
Ayyyy, Apollo, yesterday was fun, anyways, how ya doing
"Aside from the hangover?"
"Doing just fine."
"Why are you here?"
I signed up in this tournament, don't know if I'm late or not
Jiyu, who's in the stands, watches the fight but focuses on Sonic.
"Hmm, so he's fast like me..."
Ay jiyu, yeah, blue guy says he's The fastest thing alive, faster then the speed of sound
(edited by Reperzel)
"You've been placed into the second round."
"The first match an hour ago decided who'd fight you."
Apollo shrugs and waves at Jiyu.
"Hello-Um,I believe the Boss called you-And I quote..."
"That weird hippy that's also a Sonic wannabe."
With only a fraction of the charge for the Lightspeed Dash when Sayaka catches up, Sonic is forced to forgo it for a normal spindash. Letting Sayaka push him with her blade he, launches off of it and takes to the air.
Didn't think you'd be so fast. This'll be more fun than I thought.
Suddenly changing his momentum, Sonic rockets towards Sayaka and attempts to ram into her by homing into her position. If he can hit her, he'll bounce off and go for a second hit before stomping to the ground and running behind one of the pillars scattered around.
Ah dammit I missed it..I think
Sayaka-san! To me!
We're partners!
Lets strategize!
She then doubles her earth enchantment
Anyways...who do ya think'll win?
"You did miss it."
"Some guy named Eito won."
"He and his opponent KOed each other."
"He won by a single point."
"He's gonna be your opponent."
Apollo pulls a bag of popcorn seemingly out of nowhere and starts munching.
"As for these clowns?"
"My bet's on the rodent."
(edited by Apollo)
Ah I know em, I used to live with em when I was a was a snake centipede hybrid a few months back...also, he fought before these two...and for me?, sayaka, she does have regeneration
(edited by Reperzel)
Jiyu looks over to Apollo with a hand on his hip.
"And who's your boss exactly?"
Sayaka's eyes go wide when Sonic simply launches off of her blade, however, a pair of magical circles emerge in the air in front of Sayaka, forming a solid wall to stop her forward momentum.
Told ya' not to underestimate me. Honestly though, I thought I'd be fighting the likes of that old guy who'd just blow the place up. This is much more fun.
Using this wall, Sayaka swings her feet upward to meet Sonic's dash, if Sonic bounces off, she'd continue swinging to get her feet against the wall and leap off to Kotori's side
(edited by Sayaka_Miki)
"His real name-Munch-Would probably fuck you up sideways to Sunday."
Apollo chuckles at his own shitty joke.
"But you most likely know him as The Note God."
Yep..I work for him to.....I think, also, nice joke
(edited by Reperzel)
"It was?"
"I mean,of course it was!"
Apollo sighs.
"As for you working for him..."
"He likens you to a german shepard."
"Useful attack dog but still a dutiful pet."
"You know how it is with him and you mortals..."
Yep...he treats alllll mortals like shit...but ya get used to it
*Sigh* "I figured it would've been him..."
Jiyu then looks back at the fight with his arms and legs crossed.
Bouncing off of Sayaka's feet, Sonic would force himself downward and quickly around the arena. He'd pass three pillars before coming to a stop behind one near the middle.
Hmm, since she can keep up I'll have to try a bit harder to keep her on her toes. Let's see how they handle this...
With a plan in mind, Sonic runs up the pillar he chose to hide behind and looks towards his opponents, waiting for something.
"Yeah..."
He turns to face Zane,not really paying any attention to the fight.
"Anyway,The Boss sent me to advise you and make sure you don't do anything especially stupid."
"Have you prepared for your fight at all?"
"Because now would be the time."
"Since your opponents fallen into a bit of a coma and all..."
I mean, I don't have any armor, but the endurance boost I got from ya boss has gotten me through a lot, I got me 7'2 claymore which is sharp enough make little marks in the air, and can never be dull or break, and I got me deus-ex mahcina: omukade...so...yeah
(Suddenly, he puts on some armor that looks like the kritters armor from mario strikers charged) aaaaand I'm pretty sure I'm good ta go
(edited by Reperzel)
"Yeah,about that..."
"The Boss said that he's getting tired of your shit and that you'll have to prove yourself soon enough in the battle against Behemoth."
"If you don't live up to his standards,he's gonna take it all away."
Apollo yawns,relatively indifferent to Zane's situation.
"Plus,that guy doesn't seem like he loses easily."
Upon Zane's armoring,Apollo stares at him.
"You're,uh..."
A note flies down and onto Apollo's hands.
'FUCKING RIDICULOUS'
(edited by Apollo)
Sigh...fine ill do it...later, and mate, don't worry, even I die, I always come back
(edited by Reperzel)
Ayy, note gods back
She speaks quietly to Sayaka, so Sonicare can't hear her
I can't keep up with him, and trying to chase him down will be difficult and a waste of mana for both of us. I'm sticking here, I'll try to pressure him with knives, I need you to lure him over to me, lll try to grab him and throw him out, Try to pressure him over here, alright?
She then infuses her blade with wind and swings towards Sonic, the resulting shockwave that flies from her sword should hopefully cut down any pillars in the way
Sayaka smiles and soundlessly winks at her partner before forming a magic circle beneath her feet to kick off from. Her sword begins glowing with a faint blue light as she launches herself, not at Sonic, but near the base of the pillar. Around the time Kotori's shockwave would reach Sonic, Sayaka slashes upwards through the plastic pillar, cutting it at an angle so it would fall towards Kotori
Sorry for the break, I'll try not to keep ya waiting, ok?
OOC: Forgot to mention, I should be keeping track of energy usage,
Soul Gem:we'd likely be around 13% by now
(edited by Sayaka_Miki)
More notes fall on Zane's head.
'DON'T TINGLE YOUR DICK YET PAL'
'APOLLO HERE WILL STILL BE WITH YOU FOR THE FORSEEABLE FUTURE,I JUST WANTED TO POP IN TO REMIND YOU WHERE YOU STAND'
'YOU ONLY COME BACK FROM DEATH BECAUSE I WILL IT'
'DON'T BE SO CONFIDENT IN YOUR APPARENT IMMORTALITY'
Suddenly,Zane feels an incredible tightness in his chest,as if his entire existence is being crushed.
Shhhhh shit
'YA FEEL THAT?'
'THAT'S YOUR SOUL'
'I CAN FUCKING ANNIHILATE YOU AT ANY TIME'
'DON'T GET COCKY'
Zane's soul is released as the notes stop coming.
Um...look, after I do my fight here, I'll fight the behemoth, k?
"Well,you managed to piss off The Boss."
"That's a pretty difficult thing to do."
"So congrats."
"I'm sure nothing but good things will happen to you because of this."
Well...shit
No problem! But you'll have to try hard to keep up with me.
Jumping off the pillar before it falls, Sonic launches towards the ones falling in front of him. With nothing stopping him from doing so, he jumps from pillar to pillar as they collapse as if he's heading towards Kotori. With one final leap from the last pillar, he forces himself downwards to stomp on Kotori... But as he's falling, he pulls out a strangely colored emerald.
Normally not my style but... Chaos Control!
With a flash of light, Sonic goes from slamming down above Kotori, to dive kicking toward Sayaka from above her.
"Welp,i'm out."
Apollo gets up.
"Good luck."
He walks off.
See ya then mate
Sayaka's eyes follow Sonic as he dashes across the pillar tops, she was about to go after him when he seemingly vanished. She's actually seen something like that before, with another girl, she immediately turns around, eyes wide, just in time to find Sonic diving towards her
How do you people keep doing that?
The young girl brings her hand up just in time for Sonic to meet one of her magic circles, forming a barrier of sorts between the two. It would be easy for him to use this as a platform, or even go around it after blocking this attack
OOC: Soul Gem 15%
As sonic approaches her, Kotori goes to defend herself before the flash of light, she notices his new location and throws an earth infused knife at him as Sayaka puts up her barrier.
The earth enchantment causes the knife to shatter in midair, causing a wide rain of shrapnel who's center is aimed only slightly above sonic's head
Not bad! Most people don't ever expect that one! I got that move from my pal Shadow, we can use the Chaos Emeralds to warp.
Landing on the barrier, Sonic jumps up before curling into a ball and slamming down on it, getting cut on his legs a bit by the unseen shrapnel of Earth. Undeterred, he bounces back into the air after the impact, repeatedly performing the "Bound Jump" on Sayaka's barrier, trying to break through it and slam into her or force her to retreat.
Yep, I bet ya k and sayaka is gonna win
Yeah, this Homura girl back home could do it too. But, I think she uses a demon or something? I du....
Its fairly obvious Sayaka doesn't have the slightest idea what she's talking about, she was probably going to say more before her barrier broke on the second bounce, the girl's eyes go wide in the instant she has before Sonic slams into her, he's probably going to get off, but regardless the girl swings vertically in an attempt to strike him with the flat of her blade as he goes up
OOC: Soul Gem:20%
!!
Surprised at the effects of the enchantment on the knife, Kotori gets an idea
I can use this.....
Time to be a nuisance...
She infuses another one, this time with both earth and lightning, and throws it in sonic's path, the knife bursts as expected, but the lightning bounces from shard to shard, resulting in a net of lightning
(edited by Kotori_K)
Getting get grazed on the leg by Sayaka's blade, Sonic backflips off of her and winces as he lands.
You sure can take a a hit. I-
Noticing the lightning net heading towards him Sonic jumps in the air, then somehow jumps again for more height before he's surrounded by a rippling blue aura as he boosts forward toward Kotori with a clear sonic boom echoing in the arena. Jumping over the collapsed pillars and weaving through the ones that remain as he lands, he gathers his speed and jumps straight at Kotori's chest with his feet outstretched, attempting to knock her from the edge of the arena out of it. He's gripping the emerald once again as a just-in-case measure should he somehow miss.
This is getting interesting and more interesting by The minute
Seeing him aim for her, Kotori has a split second decision and infuses herself with lightning.
The moment Sonic's foot makes contact with her chest, all of his momentum stops, and due to her double earth enchantment, she isn't moved an inch.
Kotori smiles, this was the perfect result, her plan from the beginning.
Upon contact, the lightning from her enchantment rushes from her body to his, unleashing the full enchantment into his body in an attempt to stun him and make him drop the emerald.
Simultaneously, as she doesn't flinch, she grabs both the legs on her chest with an iron grip and swings him behind her, slamming him into the ground outside the arena with enough force to crack the floor
Sayaka takes a deep breath and chuckles a little as she slowly gets up, blue circle alight beneath her, rapidly healing any injury she might have received
My ability's healing, back home I ended up takin' a hit that "should have put me in the hospital for a month"
Sword already out, rather than turn around, Sayaka holds it up so she can watch Sonic dash towards Kotori from its reflection. He seemed to keep his momentum with the warping, so from this position she is able to keep an eye on the situation while being prepared for him to teleport again. Hopefully Kotori knows what she's doing
I just got back up seconds later. No matter how hard you hit me, if I go down, it'll be swingin'
Soul Gem: 25%
What the?
Pushing off of Kotori on instinct before she can grab him, Sonic doesn't avoid the lightning that transfers into him and falls to the ground about 8 feet away from her as it lingers. Clenching his teeth he lets out a laugh.
You almost had me there, but like I said earlier, I'm stronger than I look...
Forcing himself to stand, Sonic's spines seem to rise a bit as he looks at Kotori.
And I'm not a rodent! I'm a hedgehog, so don't you forget it.
Gripping his emerald, Sonic winks at Kotori before running back to Sayaka, a fewflecks of blood from his previously injured leg are left on the ground.
Looks like I'll just have to take you down first after all.
Before reaching her, he curls into a ball and circles around Sayaka at an ever increasing speed,
looking to confuse her and slide into her to knock her down while she doesn't know where he'll be.
(This move into a slide attack)
https://68.media.tumblr.com/cef191195ae1181cc523134c3c2e94a1/tumblr_o95eafzMXX1r7sijxo1_500.gif
Ohhhh, this is getting close
Watching in her sword's reflection, Sayaka waits for Sonic to approach her, as soon as he does, she slashes through the air behind her, only to find he's already circled around her, once he flashes by a second time, Sayaka grins and spins in a circle, same direction as he's rotating
I wouldn't count on it.
The girl's cape flutters up as she turns, and five other swords, same as the one she's carrying, fall out from beneath her cape, forming the shape of a star around her, while it is unlikely for any of these to hit him, they would stick into the ground around her, hilt-up, forming obstacles to his intended movement. Of course, if he can avoid them easily she's in no position to dodge the slide dash
In spite of her excitement, she can't help but notice a few flecks of blood on the ground... It can't be hers, since its nowhere near her.
S.. Sorry, are you actually hurt? We can stop if you want, I can heal others, not just myself, just... Give me a moment ok? It requires contact.
Soul Gem: 30%
(edited by Sayaka_Miki)
Tch!
Her grab apparently completely failing, Kotori begins thinking of a new plan, a look of frustration beginning to form on her face as she throws another Earth/Lightning enchanted knife after him
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
"Don't fucking lose this, hedgehog..."
Jiyu's literally on the edge of his seat with his hands folded, it seems like he's getting really in to the fight.
LETS GO SAYAKA LETS GO
Upon seeing the swords appear Sonic would uncurl from a ball and run with his hand along the ground to continue circling around Sayaka.
Don't worry about it! I wouldn't feel right if I won after getting healed. It's not the worst injury I've had either.
Supporting himself with the hand training on the ground, Sonic pushes off of the ground and makes a grab for two of the swords and attempts to pull them out of the ground. Choosing to not close the gap between himself and Sayaka, he tests the weight and feel of the swords quickly, seeming used to handling a blade.
Maybe I'll tell you about some of those times after we're done here.
With a fluid motion Sonic throws the sword in his left hand at the earth/lightning knife to take the hit of it for him.
Been awhile since I held a sword. Wonder if I've still got it...
GO, "KNIGHT OF THE WIND"
Sonic finds the swords to be abnormally lightweight, and come out of the ground with as little resistance as you'd expect from a sword their size. Though I believe a Katana is somewhat different from the kind of blade he'd be used to, he should still be able to use it without too much trouble. So of course its easy to throw at the knife, though Kotori would have to tell you what happens there
Alright, if you're sure. Just make sure not to run off immediately afterwards.
Sayaka grabs a second sword from the three remaining around her. She spins around and throws these blades, each aimed to graze by Sonic, one to his left, one to his right, before picking the last two up off the ground, one in each hand
If you don't mind, we could try a little duel of our own then. Don't mean to brag, but I've kinda been using these things nonstop for the last three weeks.
With a confident grin, the girl runs towards Sonic, somewhat behind the two swords she threw
OOC: No need to use more magic there, so Soul Gem remains at 30%
As the sword hits the knife, it once again splits into an electrified net of shrapnel.
Kotori herself will begin throwing about 10 earth knives into the air, sending a hail of shrapnel falling down on the entire arena
Sayaka-san! Run past me!
(edited by Kotori_K)
(He Uses his 7'2 claymore Tue block most of the knifes, some of them hit, but they don't really effect him)
OHHHHHH, SWEET LORD THIS IS GETTING INTENSE
OOC: the shrapnel is only inside the arena, not in the spectators booth
(edited by Kotori_K)
You got it!
With two quick steps to his right to avoid the path of the blades, Sonic runs towards Sayaka and jumps into the air. He spins around, swinging the sword vertically as he homes in on her. Regardless of whether or not Sayaka dodges, gets hits, blocks or goes for a sword clash Sonic would quickly disengage, put some distance between him and Sayaka, and point his attention at the sky.
Hey! You're going to hurt your partner with this too! No matter how much you want to win that's not cool!
Throwing his sword to the sky, Sonic revs up a quick spin dash and leaps up to meet the raining shrapnel. Knocking away some of them, and getting hit by others, Sonic then has a flash of light surround him that blocks the remainder of them as he reaches the apex of his jump. Grabbing the sword from the air, he'd slam back down to the ground, covered in more light cuts across his body. Sighing in relief, he'd stand back up, with less of his usual cocky attitude showing.
Sayaka does in fact raise her own swords in an attempt to clash with Sonic, only for the Hedgehog to jump away instead. she starts running at him again, only to stop and look up at the shrapnel rain when he does
Wait, I don't need any help, I can heal easily, remember?
Rather than try to intercept him, the Sayaka watches Sonic block the shrapnel, getting himself injured in the process..... That's enough. Sayaka tosses her swords aside and, while Sonic descends, dashes off in the direction of his landing. Around the time the hedgehog is finished standing up, she'd tackle him
There's no need to risk yourself idiot, I'll be fine... Now come on.
Without giving any room to protest, two more magic circles would form beneath the girl, her hands glowing with a blue light that would wash over Sonic, recovering any injuries he might have sustained in moments.
The fight's over, I don't think we need to go any further.
Sayaka would glance back over her shoulder, glaring at Kotori, while she's not a fan of explosions and friendly fire, she's more worried about how far the other girl might go
This is just some dumb training thing, not life or death. Who even cares if we win? Its supposed to be practice!!
OOC: Soul Gem: Either 30 or 40%, depending on if Sonic lets her heal him. Not that its likely to matter
WOOOOOO GO SAYAKAAAAAAAA
Panthera Dox's golden eyes glow as they wait, tapping their notepad with a pen. They've already marked one thing down. Now to wait for the true end.
Wha-
Sonic can barely react to Sayaka's sudden tackle and resists for only a moment before sighing and letting her heal him.
Hey now, I already told you I've taken way worse before. Those scratches weren't going to slow me down. But...
Sonic would place one of his hands on Sayaka's back for a light hug.
Thanks for worrying about me. You've definitely got what it takes to save the world. I'll give you a call sometime if I ever need a hand.
After finishing what he had to say, he'd let her go and softly whistle.
While I don't hate the feeling of the ground, we should probably get up.
With a soft smile, the cat-person jots something down.
"Whenever you're ready, feel free to continue, if you wish."
Maybe to you it's just a "Dumb training thing"
To me it's a fight!
As for "Who cares"
I do! It's a competition! The whole POINT is to win!
Maybe if you took this seriously or tried actually working with your partner rather than go off on your own and completely ignore my existence then you would have seen that attack!
You said it yourself that you could just heal it back up, or even use a barrier to protect yourself like before, the shrapnel is too tiny to even do any real harm!
It's not my fault he jumped into it!
And now you wanna basically give up just because we're making some kind of progress?
Believe it or not, I'm TRYING to work with you and support you!
But some of us don't have tons of magic or energy to waste on fancy or careful attacks! Some of us aren't fast enough to keep up with the combat!
So we gotta do what we can!
So I'm doing my best with what I have!
(edited by Kotori_K)
So...is it over?
(Within a dark room with a grand dining table with several shadowy inhuman figures sitting around it a man sits most amused.
He watches the fight on a giant TV screen though where the camera delivering the live feed to him is, is impossible to determine.
He'd be sipping a strange liquid out of a glass as he watches the current dispute.)
"This is certainly amusing.
Teammates fighting over such split ideals.
That girl with the white hair.
She's an interesting one.
Perhaps she'll be a source of amusement in the future.
(The man begins chuckling to himself like a mad man.)
After hearing what Kotori had said, Jiyu would slowly nod in agreement.
"She's right..."
He would then put a hand on his forehead, having a small flashback about something.
Yah, I agree to
Sayaka awkwardly scratches the back of her head once the healing's done. This is kinda a weird situation even discounting the blue hedgehog. The young girl beams with pride as she rolls off of him, Easily getting to her feet. Sayaka listens to Kotori's rant, apparently uninterested in continuing any fight anymore. After waiting for the other girl to finish, she proceeds to march over there, picking up one of her swords in the process
The whole POINT of this competition is to be better prepared for when something DOES happen, something you'll NEED to be able to fight. Fighting's not fun, its serious, its something we do because SOMEONE has to.
Sayaka takes a deep breath, Kotori might feel kinda useless, but....
I DID work with you, and it was going great while we could. But you just risked hurting, not just me, not just our opponent, but yourself too. I've always told you, I'll be fine, you don't have to worry about me, but you just keep on throwing yourself in danger. And whose job is it to keep you and everyone else safe? MINE.
If you can't do something then you can't do it, that's fine!! You think I've always been like this? You think I've always been able to conjure swords out of nowhere or flash across the arena? You think I WANT to? Sure, that stuff might be cool, but its so much more than that.
By the time she reaches Kotori, Sayaka is fuming, Sayaka sheathes her sword to avoid doing anything rash and continues.
Fact is, I haven't always been like this. I probably would have been able to live a normal life, I'd probably still be home with my friends and family.
But no, instead I made friends with this amazing girl who taught me everything about her, what it meant to be a hero. I did everything I could to help, but I knew when to let the stronger person take care of it. Because if I didn't her job'd just be harder.
Sayaka's eyes begin to tear up as she points her finger, poking at Kotori's chest
And so, I got to sit back and watch, when she finally found one of those monsters she couldn't beat. All I could do was stand there, helpless, when she was killed and eaten. And then to make matters worse, Immediately afterwards, you know who showed up? Homura. Homura Akemi. I don't know what the hell happened to her, but in my world, she just stood there and let Mami, my teacher, one of my best friends get killed so that SHE could get the rewards.
That's who I am. THAT'S why I do this, not because I want to, not because its "fun" But because if I didn't I'd be leaving the lives of my friends, my family, everyone I cared about in the hands of some psychopath who would gladly let people die. THIS, THIS IS NOTHING.
"..."
Panthera Dox raises a hand. One of their eyes briefly turns blue before fading to a warm gold again.
"If I may... I'd say we're done here. Unfortunately, we have a tie, and the points are even, even taking away karma..."
They clap their hands together.
"You have two choices: decide this with a coin, or... I could send the people with the most points onwards."
JUST LET IT BE A TIE
"I can't, overly-vocal audience member. Someone needs to move on."
They glare at Zane.
hm.....whoever did the best in skill, power, and strategy?
"You are not the judge, human."
They then cough, and their slight purr to their voice returns.
"Sorry! Got a bit frustrated there. I know what I'm doing, mkay?"
K..fine..Jesus christ
Sonic remains silent as he gets up off the ground. He lets Sayaka say her piece to Kotori and sighs after hearing most of it. He starts stretching to loosen up his legs and raises an eyebrow at Panthera's words.
So that's how it turned out, huh? While winning the tournament would be nice and all, there's more important things than that.
Taking his time for once, Sonic walks over to Sayaka and puts a hand on her shoulder.
Hey, I had a pretty good time with the fight. You kept up way better than anyone other than Shadow has managed to do since I came here. I'll leave the results up to you. I don't need that guardian thing anyway, I'm already pretty confident in my abilities.
Well that fight was long but really good
ooc: Carry on, folks. You didn't see a post saying this ended. No sir.
Jiyu looks up from having that "small" flashback that literally took more than a minute, awaiting a winner to be announced. He then looks over to Sayaka and Kotori's argument while slowly shaking his head.
"Now watch, this argument is going to tear them apart as friends and teammates in this tournament."
Yeah, maybe, who knows,its a 50/50 chance
(edited by Reperzel)
You say fighting is serious, but you treat this fight like it's a game?
And when did you try to help?
What did you do?
I asked you to lure him over and you kept him in the center.
I had to do it myself!
And when that failed you went back to doing your own thing!
And nobody ASKED you to protect them!
Especially not me!
You CHOSE this path!
It was your decision!
Don't act like it was forced onto you!
Like it's some kind of unfair curse!
So grow up and accept the consequences of your decisions!
I honestly don't care about your friend.
If she picked a fight she couldn't win then that's HER fault!
Cuz She chose the path of the warrior too.
News flash!
Everybody dies in the end anyway!
Death comes with the job!
She chose to fight, she chose to die!
I also don't give a crap about your world's Homura.
Cuz surprise!
Not everyone acts or thinks like you.
But that doesn't mean they're wrong, it just means they're different.
And maybe consider the fact that you don't always know the whole story.
And don't you DARE talk to me about "Not being able to do something" I don't want to hear that from someone who was handed their power on a silver platter! Someone who didn't work her ass off to get to where she is! Because unlike you, who let's her power make up for her utter lack of skill, I actually TRY to get better!
You're a warrior.
Accept that.
You chose this life.
You chose the consequences.
You were even gifted a headstart.
Quit acting like you're some kind of victim.
Sayaka takes a deep breath, trying to control herself.... It doesn't take long for her to throw a punch Kotori's way, Sayaka shouts furiously at her "teammate"
YOU THINK I DON'T KNOW THAT? That's what I've been TRYING to get into you and Haruko's thick skulls. That this crap isn't fun. That its something very serious and you could EASILY get yourselves KILLED if you're not careful.
THIS MAY AS WELL BE A GAME, Its just practice for when something worse comes along and you actually have to TRY to kill it, no one needs to be hurt with crap like this.
As for what I did? I pushed him towards you, just like you asked. I made it to where he had to try attacking you, and you have the GALL to say I just stood there and did NOTHING?
I'M PERFECTLY AWARE OF THE RISKS, UNLIKE YOU, WHO JUST LOOKS AT THIS WHOLE THING LIKE ITS FUN, LIKE ITS THE ONLY THING THAT MATTERS?
Fighting isn't important, its WHY you fight that is.
So sure, go ahead, say I've had everything handed to me, I don't care. But don't you DARE accuse me of treating the whole thing like a game. This tournament is nothing, its practice. People don't DIE in practice.
I don't mind the idea of you hurting me, just by accident, but what if there was someone there who CAN'T take it? Would you just kill them? That makes you almost as bad as the monsters are
Sayaka takes a deep breath and sighs, she immediately turns to Panthera, fury in her eyes and declares
I don't think I can work with HER any longer. I don't really care about the results here, but if she can't tell the difference between some silly practice match, and people being in REAL danger, I don't know if I want to be helpin' her out. And if that's really how she takes all this, then I'd rather lose than be forced to work with someone like HER any longer
"More like a 100/0 chance..."
Jiyu lets out a long sigh while crossing his legs again.
"Very well."
Panthera Dox sighs, and grips the microphone. One eye turns a solid icy blue.
"If that's what you wish, then I can declare Sonic the victor... or, if it's alright with you, you can leave Kotori and move on with Sonic as a team. The latter was one of my two offers, after all, since Kotori gained no points."
Sayaka looks between Sonic and Panthera and shrugs
I'll leave that up to the two of you then. Its no big deal for me how this goes on, its JUST a training exercise. Nothing more, nothing less. Sure, it might be nice to go on, but if not I can always just hang around the GYM if I need practice.
Oh boy, now I'm excited for my fight!
Oh wow... Well I can't argue with whatever you chose Sayaka, I did leave it up to you. But... if the two of you are friends, or were with how things have turned out... You should try to understand where each other are coming from. Fighting, dying, protecting others... it's not the type of talk you should just drop after something like this. Even if you can't agree, you'll only end up hating each other if you let it end like this...
Sonic closes his eyes and thinks about what he should do, tapping is foot absentmindedly. He opens his eyes once he's made a decision.
If it's ok with them... I'd like to keep going on with Sayaka, but if, no, when we win I'd like Kotori to take my half of the grand prize if you can do that. Like I said, I think I'm strong enough already.
"Hm... very well, then. Fair warning that only half of me will go out to each team member, but that shouldn't be a problem. Anyway, it's decided: Sayaka and Sonic move on, but Kotori shall get Sonic's half of the grand prize!"
With that, the match is finally settled.
So...cat person, who's next?
The punch just stops at Kotori's face, her earth enchantment stopping it as she looks at Sayaka with a bored expression
Well then, did you ever think that we already know that fights are dangerous? Or that we think differently from you?
Maybe your "lesson" isn't going through because you're trying to force your 'Don't even try to improve, just stay home like a good little weakling" mindset onto us.
I know fights are deadly. I almost die every time I fight, even in the "games".
I never asked for your protection, for your smothering "Leave the danger to me" attitude.
As for what you did, If I hadn't made myself enough of a nuisance to warrent attacking, he probably would have forgotten I even was there.
And just because I have fun with something, doesn't mean I don't take it seriously. So leave your "righteousness" at the door.
I have a different view than you do about fighting. I come from a different world where fighting IS important. Get over it.
And as I said before, I almost die even in practice, I bring myself to the brink of death every fight, because I give everything my all. Not doing so is an insult to your opponent and yourself.
And here's something you didn't consider, maybe I wouldn't have tried that if it had been someone who couldn't have handled it? Maybe I actually considered your strengths and weaknesses before acting?
She says all of this with a bored tone of voice, then turns to Panthera
I agree, I can't fight with someone who refuses to accept that others think differently than her, and who insults both her opponent and her allies by not putting forth her all.
And I apologize Sayaka-san.
I called you a warrior.
But it's clear you aren't one.
You're just a girl with a chip on her shoulder who plays the black and white hero to justify a poor decision to herself.
"Now.... Goodnight, folks. Next match shall be tomorrow."
They stand up and walk off, leaving in a yellow cloud of smoke.
Well, see ya then, (with that, he walks away, and now he's gonna try to go fight the behemoth)
Jiyu looks down at Kotori and Sayaka before letting out another long sigh.
"Well, that friendship just went out the window. Wait, were they even close friends before this happened?"
Jiyu would then shrug before standing up and stretching a bit.
Sayaka sighs and turns away from the others, she finally decides to ignore Kotori, instead casting a glance at Sonic, her new teammate
There are some things I just can't agree with. Sure, if she's helping out sometime, its not like I'll chase her off. But that doesn't make us friends in any sense of the word.
My job is to protect people from monsters, and others worse than monsters. While Kotori's not that bad.... I don't regret anything. If she doesn't want my advice, she doesn't want it. There's nothing more to say here.
With that, Sayaka begins to walk out of the arena, through the far entryway
(Before he's completely gone he says): IF YA WANT, YA CAN JOIN UP WITH ME!
Kotori just shakes her head and looks to Sonic, smiling oddly
That fight was mostly enjoyable, I wish I was strong enough to actually have kept up and joined in it.
Thanks for trying including me so I wouldn't feel too useless.
Good luck, with a partner who doesn't have any intention to actually win, you might have a bit of trouble, but I think you'll be able to handle it.
As for the prize......
Thanks, but keep it.
I didn't earn it, I don't have any right to it.
Just a sign that I need to get stronger.
Just be careful, ok? She sees any signs of weakness in you and she'll insist on shoving it in your face claiming how she needs to "protect you".
Again.....
Thanks for actually trying....
(edited by Kotori_K)
And now we got some rivels
"Well now I have to train. Maybe I could go to that one spot that I found a few days ago..."
Before he runs to the exit, Jiyu glances over at Sonic for a few seconds before running out of the arena.
Sonic just slightly shakes his head and sighs softly.
This isn't how I expect this to go at all.
He turns to Kotori with a slight frown on his face.
Listen, I don't really understand what just happened between you two, but are you sure you meant everything you said to Sayaka? You should think about it for a while and figure out what's important to you. Losing a friend isn't normally an easy thing to go through. I hope you understand what will happen if you leave things like this.
I can't force you to accept the prize, but think it over a bit. You don't look like a bad person, so I don't want to just let you make mistakes. I wasn't always the fastest thing alive you know. And even when I started to really hit my stride there was always someone to keep me on my toes. You can get stronger, but you've got to go about it the right way. Almost dying doesn't do anything but make the people that care about you worry. Take your time and don't rush.
He chuckles a bit at that.
Strange coming from me, I know. But you can't run head first into every situation. If you do you might end up doing something you regret and can't make up for. Just a thought to keep in mind.
He starts walking away, but turns his head for some final words.
And next time we meet try putting on a real smile! If your hearts not into it it's almost as bad as a frown.
And with that, the hedgehog runs away from the arena.
......................
Thanks.
She speaks to the air in front of her, tearing up a little
I'll think about it.....
She then walks out of the arena, wiping her face
*Shade enters the arena*
This is the correct place I hope.
Akechi, still in his civilian attire enters into the arena.
It seems like i've finally managed to partecipate in a tournament, how long has it been since the last one?
This time i'll be fighting alone too, let's see how the events will unfold.
After walking to the center of it, he notices Shade and smiles.
So, you are going to be my opponent in this round. I wish for a good fight only and nothing else.
*Shade turns to face Akechi*
Seems I do have the right place. That's a good sign at least. I wish you good luck as well. So...
*Shade looks around*
Do we have to wait for the announcer or something to start?
(edited by -Shade-)
Eito,in a wheelchair,watches in the stands,smiling.
"Finally got some down time..."
Hhhhm
Akechi places his hand on his chin and begins to think fo a while.
I suppose i was told something similar, waiting to have se rules wouldn't hurt that much.
Since we're here and all, would you mind me asking a simple question?
What's your opion on justice?
he takes once again an idle position, this time waiting for an answer.
Justice is subjective to the person. It's either following the law and bringing down those who do not or doing what is right despite the consequences. Either will allow you to be hated by someone else with a different idea of justice or by those who think you wrong for following your idea of "right" regardless of what society says, respectively. I don't put to much stock on justice. I simply fight for my allies. Nothing more nothing less.
*With that, Shade summons his Scythe and leans against it, waiting.*
Akechi gives to Shade a friendly smile.
Not bad at all, i guess you have a clear concept of it.
Very well i might have decided my approach, as soon as the rules are set we can begin this show.
Having said that Akechi changes from his normal attire to his red and white costume.
(Suddenly, Zane's 7'2 claymore drops down, with its Golden hilt, and the blade with cravings and Jewels and jems and it stabs into the ground)
(edited by Reperzel)
Good to see. Though if that "approach" of yours involves holding back, you may not see the next round of this tournament. Are you prepared for that?
*As Shade speaks, shadows wrap around him.*
(Then, the 7'3 man also comes down, right behind his claymore, and picks it up and puts it in his beautiful wooden sheath)......sup
Oh
this time his smile was not a gentle or friendly one,it looked more arrogant if anything else.
What do you mean by "holding back?" I'm probably going to use the entirety of my power only if i'm im danger.
I was going at first to use my laser sable and ray gun to test your strenght but since i've seen a strange shadow around you i'm going to do something else.
Persona!
As soon as he said that, Robin hood appears and begins to fly near him.
Oh..looks likes a fight just started....wooo
(edited by Reperzel)
Eito's eyes turn crimson, his expression souring.
"Get off the stage!"
A good rule of battle is to never show your hand to an opponent. If they can predict what you will do, it will make them that much harder to defeat. But, since you showed your contract, I suppose I will be kind and do the same. Adhere to the contract, Lord Hades.
*Shade's shadow darkens before something grows out of it. Hades folds his arms as he materializes fully.*
Hades: Not exactly Grandmother this time. But, I suppose if you think him a threat...
ALRIGHT, FINE (he get off the stage., and sits by Eito) so....how ya doing
Eito's crimson eyes glow.
"I'm moody,momentarily crippled and preparing to kick your ass."
His eyes return to normal.
"Please ignore me when I do that."
Um...alrighty then...is that a new magic eye color ya got...orrr?
(edited by Reperzel)
Should we begin?
Eito's eyes turn crimson again.
"Oh,it's not that. I've been here for a while, I just happened to be the first to appear."
Back to brown eyes, Eito sighs.
"Goddamnit."
Eh, I've seen weirder (he then pulls out his banjo and plays it softly)
(edited by Reperzel)
Then, i shall do a little something to begin with.
I wonder for my next attack if your shadow is weak to light/bless attacks. It will be interesting to see.
Now then, let me give myself a higher start to begin with.
Robin hood cast Debilitate!
After a little bit Robin hood casts on both of them debilitate.
*Shade flips backwards, launching a wave of shadowy energy from his scythe. If hit, Akechi would feel the shadows grabbing him, holding him in place.*
"I'm sure you have."
Eito rolls his eyes and puts a hand on his wheelchair,leaning on it.
"Are you excited for our fight?"
Yeah....as long as I don't get shot in the back of my head by a gun by a certain someone
(edited by Reperzel)
Eito's eyes turn crimson.
"Oh, don't worry, i'll shoot you from every angle."
Once he goes back to normal, Eito makes a very disgruntled noise.
Dude, if I half ta,I'll summons omukade, and that's something I promised me self I'll never do
Akechi jumps to the left and dodges most of the shadow energy but, one grabs robin hood who was trying to get infront of him to shield him from damage.
That was kinda slow, but i figured it would happen since i casted debilitate on you.
Robin hood, stilli stuck was struggling to get out.
Tsk, he is going to stay there for a while isn't he?
Very well let me try something else.
Akechi takes out his ray gun and shoots 5 bullets to Shade.
"Dammit- Just- Wo- oh, the mic's working again! Good! Uh... You probably know the drill by now, knock the opponent outta the ring or outta consciousness, all that stuff, so continue!"
Crimson eyes emerge once again.
"Oh, you mean that thing you have absolutely no control over?"
Yeah, and the thing that can kill ya just by stepping on ya, or by bittin' ya
(edited by Reperzel)
*Shade deflects most of the bullets with his scythe, one hitting Hades, but he doesn't seem to care.*
So, it would seem you have range. Very interesting.
*He eyes Robin*
Hades, catch him
*Hades nods before launching a number of chains towards Robin Hood, hoping to wrap him up in them.*
As Akechi stands now below Robin hood, the chains wrap the persona.
Will this incident prevent me for giving him commands...
Oh, i have the perfect solution to this problem.
Let's not waste this chance.
Robin Hood! Use Megidola!
He runs back, as a not too big white explosion starts coming from Robin, hoping that would freed him from the chains and deal some damage to Shade and Hades.
"Oh, you mean the thing I can beat down with Fluffy?"
"Or the thing that makes you feel all the damage that gets done to it?"
Eito, back to normal, shakes his head.
"Just stop already!"
*Hades recoils from megidola breaking his chains, as he recalls them back into his sleeve. Shade, however, seems unaffected as he rushes towards Akechi and slashes at him with an overhead swing.*
Ah ya used to people being douchebag to ya..I mean it's happens to me everyday, and mate, lemme guess, some sortta other you. Ain't it
(edited by Reperzel)
"It's uh..."
"I'm just a manifestation of his personality. And i'm not the only one."
"Yeah,that..."
Ah...so ya have different you's...inside of you?....or should I say inside ya eye
(edited by Reperzel)
Eito's eyes turn crimson once again, glowing.
"They do say the eyes are the windows to the soul."
BUT THE WINDOW MAY BE DIFFERENT FOR WOMEN IF YA GET WHAT IM SAYIN' AAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAH..OHHHH..ohhhh..that was funny
(edited by Reperzel)
Akechi noticing Shade rushing towards him, grabs his laser saber and puts it infront of him, thus reducing a bit of the damage that still sends him a little back and after he stands with the sword defending himself.
Your Choice of attacking me directly while still on the effect of debilitate is quite poor i would say but now, you're right here.
Robin hood! Get as close as you can and use kougaon!
Robin surpassed Hades and got right behind Shade and,
casts kougaon, the light can be even seen from distant.
The effect of Debilitate also fades.
Seemingly out of no where a large boulder would drop onto Zane's head. How weird and random...
*As the light hits, Shade's armour dissipates, but Shade himself takes little damage due to it. Meanwhile, Hades positions himself behind Robin and tries to wrap in chains once more.*
OWWWWWWWW, FUCKING HELL MATE, THATS NEW RIGHT THERE, BUT GOD DAMN THAT HURTS
Zane is forced to hit his head against the railings again and again. A note flies down.
'YOU'RE A DUMBASS'
OH C'MON MATE, IT WAS JUST A JOKE,IM BETTING THATS WHY A GIANT BOULDER HIT ME HEAD
A small fireball flies in from the sky, burning Zane's back. Apollo's voice is heard from the heavens.
"BOOOOOO!"
*Fayth appears, sets Zane on fire, laughs about it and then leaves*
Again?
This time Akechi jumps as far from Robin hood as he can without exiting the arena, he knew something big was going to be underway.
I'm not letting you do that! This is it! You asked me to not hold back, then here you can get what you wanted.
Robin hood! Use Megidolaon!
A white, allmighty explosion surround almost the whole arena, expanding to the sky aswell, even Akechi almost got hit by it.
for some unknown reason Megidolaon hit Zane too.
(edited by Akechi_Kun)
(The fire just withers away) ALRIGHT ALRIGHT, I GET IT, MY JOKES SUCK
*Hades is knocked to the ground and Shade is blasted back into a pillar.*
Ugh. That hurt. If that's the way you're playing it, very well.
*Shade presses a hand to the ground. Behind Akechi, just out of the ring, all the shadows in the arena gather and swirl together into a vortex, dragging him in towards it.*
Black Hole. Let's see how you handle this.
(edited by -Shade-)
[A giant yellow dinosaur with a blonde haired man on it falls from the sky towards Zane]
"ROAD ROLLER DA!!"
[The dinosaur would land directly on Zane, squashing him]
[An explosion can be heard in the distance. However, it is followed shortly thereafter by a man's voice, just faint enough that he can still be heard from this distance.]
"Now then, let's begin the experiment!"
[A violent shaking of what sounds like bottles can be heard next. Then out of nowhere, massive walls of scientific formulas and equations. All the letters, numbers, and symbols crash into Rep without harming the stands.]
AHHHH YA GOTTA HE KIDDING ME (he grabs the dino thing by the legs and throws him off) WATCH WHERE YA GOING. YA BIG TOOTHED MORON
[Except the dinosaur is too heavy for Zane because of its size]
"WRYYYYYYYY!!!"
(Alll the things hit him) ALRIGHT, NO MORE MORE ME GETTING ME ASS WHOOPED
AY, DINO, GET OFF ME BACK BEFORE YA BECOME EXTINCT AGAIN
Agh, Robin hood! Come right here, quick!
Use Megaton raid on any of them!
Akechi takes his laser saber and stabs the ground hoping to be able to not fall in, in the meantime Robin hood reaches his location and uses megaton raid on one of them, hopefully stopping them from swirling and creating the black hole.
"HEY FLESHBAGS, STOP FIGHTING IN THE STANDS!"
Panthera Dox pauses, then coughs.
"Sorry. Got carried away there."
Eito grabs a watter bottle and throws it at Zane.
"Lame joke."
WHAT DID I DO?!! THEY STARTED IT!!
*Hades rises from the ground as Shade takes his scythe and blocks the Megaton raid with it*
Hades, remove the anchor
*Hades nods, firing a chain at Akechi's sword, trying to pull it out from under him, hoping to leave nothing to stop him from being dragged from the arena.*
Well...guess imma chair now.......wooo
"Anyway,chill out."
Eito's eyes turn crimson.
"Your stupidity aside, this is a serious match. So shut your trap and pay attention."
Eito stops talking and pays full attention to the fight.
Yeah yeah, whatever
Good strategy, but you always forget someone!
Robin hood, stop that chain and use mahamaon!
Robin hood once again gets infront of Akechi shielding him and getting the chain onto his wrist and casts mahamaon, with the moderate chance of instakilling all of them atleast one of the shadows would have to fall, stopping the black hole.
*With a motion of his arm, Shade creates a wall of shadows, shielding himself from the light, but weakening the pull of the Balck Hole slightly. Hades, in the meantime, sends a wave of blue fire down his chain.*
Hades: We shall see how you are treated by the souls of the damns. Feel the weight of all your sins. If you are innocent, the ember shall burn out, but if you have committed crimes, you shall feel the fires of hell.
*As the fire touches Robin Hood, it senses the sins committed by the persona and it's wielder in their lifetime and increases in size accordingly.*
(edited by -Shade-)
Robin hood is extremely weakened by the flames and faces Akechi knowing that he would soon fall. In the meantime since the black hole was weakened he managed to stand up and gives one final order to robin hood.
Robin hood use Eigaon on it with all of your strenght!
With the last he had Robin Hood attacked Hades and then disappeared.
Wait... you call those things Shadows am i right?
Akechi laughs maniacally as his clothes change from red and white to purple, his mask turns to black and his sword changes to a long katana.
You wanted to see my real power? Here you go, i'm not letting you off.
... use call of Chaos on all of those shadows.
A black and white persona appears behind Akechi and takes control of the shadows that are now facing Shade instead of him.
You used your cards well but this it how it will end.
Feel my wrath.
and with that all the shadows start going after Shade, being ever stronger since Akechi made them go psychotic.
Are you using Darkness? Against me? That's foolish
*Shade absorbs the Eigaon and uses it to recraft his Shadow Armour*
And I shall correct you. I use darkness. These shadows are different. Nothing more than creations and a weak one at that. You asked me what Justice is, but you don't seem to follow a rightous justice yourself. How Disappointing. Hades.
Hades: Of course.
*Shades holds his hand up, causing the Black Hole to once more take shape, it pulls stronger than ever due to the power granted by his Shadow Armour. Meanwhile, Hades floats back in front of Shade, his chains creating a wall between the contract holder and contract summon, protecting Shade from being sucked in due to Black Holes increased suction.*
This is oddly getting boring....
"I agree with the 7 foot man, this fight is getting boring."
[Diego lays down on his giant yellow T-Rex who is still on Zane]
But, guess we outta watch
Calling even more shadows, no matter how weak they can be my power to control them is absolute.
Call of Chaos!
once again Akechi tries to control the shadows, but that makes only the black hole weaker and so, he uses his long katana to stop it from pulling him in.
And now eat this!
Loki appears behind Akechi and uses Brave blade trying to destroy the wall of chains.
Should I be impressed by your second contract? I'm not, by the way. Just in case you were wondering. I prefer quality over quantity. Hades. I shall leave this too you. I have a Black Hole to maintain.
Hades: Of course.
*Hades floats over in front of Akechi. As Loki shatters the wall of chains, Hades draws them back before attempting to wrap Akechi in the chains.*
Get away from me!
Loki! Use Tetrakarn and keep trying to breake those chains with negative pile!
from afar Loki casts Tetrakarn and once again tries to break the wall surrounding Shade, Akechi in the other hand slowly moves towars Loki and Shade using his katana to not fall off in the black hole.
Idk why its boring...it just is
*Hades chains bounce off Akechi's shield. Instead, Hades decides to fire a stream of the blue fire from before at Akechi. Meanwhile, Shade launches a wave of darkness at Loki in an attempt to root him in place and stop him from breaking the chains*
"Wow, this guy uses so much darkness that his profile picture is filled with darkness as well."
[A rumbling sound can be hear coming from the stands signifying that a wall of the arena just broke]
"Whoops, did I just do that?"
Tsk, you think that will be effective? Think again!
Loki use makarakarn!
Loki casts a magic wall as Akechi was getting close to him, a bit after that hei gets hit from the darkness and takes some damage thag sends him a little back. He returns in a while near the wall and Akechi reaches him.
Loki! Try once again! This time use maragion!
a giant column of fire hits the chain wall hoping to destroy it once and for all. In the meantime Akechi glares at the direction where Shade should be,you seemingly concentrating for Something.
*Shade sighs before stopping the Black Hole, instead of using the darkness used to buff his Scythe and slashing upwards at Loki once the chains break. Hades also turns to face Loki before firing a stream of flames at the Persona.*
You may be able to block either physical attacks or magical based attacks, but can you stop both?
Wow, shades profile pic is hot topic inna nutshell
*Fayth appears and sets Zane on fire*
I heard you were breaking the fourth wall. And you didn't think that I would hear it.
Shhhh, lemme have my fun
Akechi gets infront of Shade deflecting his attack and Loki gets hit from by the one from Hades which damages him and sends him a bit backwards, he then quickly returns to his position and waits.
Suddenly Akechi starts to laugh once again.
I'm tired of playing, just let me show you my ultimate technique. It will leave you on the brink of death, no one i used this on survived, not even once.
It'll be easy to finish you off when you're not moving on the ground.
Loki use Laevateinn.
A giant sword of fire, almost impossible to dodge goes to Shade's direction.
Wow, this battle has been going on for god knows how Long
*Shade is knocked back across the arena, landing close to the edge of the arena. Hades floats down beside him.*
Hades: So, what do we do? Try the Black Hole again
No, it seems it won't work. Loki has an annoying habit of nullifying our movements. They seem to have our movements down. I'm going to gamble instead.
*Shade dispells his shadow armour and steps out of the arena, effectively ringing himself out. Hades nods, accepting Shade's decision before vanishing into Shade's shadow*
"Huh? It's over? That settles that."
Panthera Dox claps their hands, then looks down at their notes.
"This is an easy choice. Akechi wins by 1 point! ...Which was the only point, but still."
FINALLY, THAT TOOK WAY TO LONG
So, this is it?
It was getting interesting...i guess i won.
Loki disappears and Akechi returns to his normal clothes. It seems like the whole fight made him utterly tired, he forces a calm smile, waves to the spectactors and walks away.
"Shut up, worm. If you're here, then at least try to not kill the energy."
They cough.
"Sorry, Zane. Got riled up again."
*As Shade walks away, Hades returns, grabbing Zane with his chain*
Hades: So, Izanami tells me you died.
Woah, mate, yes I did die, but, I'm back, big whoop...actually....I died two times
(edited by Reperzel)
*Hades glares at Zane*
Look forward when you die for good. I like people like you who think they can escape my underworld. They're always fun to play with.
*Hades releases Zane and returns to the shadows.*
"Anyway, with half our matches done and another set in stone for this Saturday night, I'd like to mention that our Discord is open to all! I also suggest that the contestants who haven't joined-"
Cue coughing that sounds suspiciously like "Jiyu and Rep."
"-do so now! The link is https://discord.gg/hmqe4d "
Yeah, fuck ya to mate (he walks back to where he originally was) now the god of death wants me dead....great
[Diego and his yellow T-Rex both majestically fly up into the air, never to be seen at the arena again... maybe]
Overlooking the arena from a judge's seat that suspiciously wasn't there previously, is the old man known as Mido. There's an old looking microphone in his hand with no cord that he speaks into. Somehow, his voice echoes as if there were speakers throughout the arena.
Ladies and gentleman, I hereby announce that the next match in this little tournament can officially begin when the participants are ready. Lowe and Alice versus Chie! I look forward to an intense match. The rules are the same as the previous matches. The ways to win are via knockout, or ring out.
As a reminder, the arena is a modified wrestling ring with wood as the floor and a random assortment of pillars strewn about. Good luck...
Lowe entered as his name was called. Seeing as how he was the first one here, he took the opportunity to do a bit of light stretching. It's been a while since he'd been in a real fight, better do his best.
Alright, let's do this.
Alice steps out and makes her way into the arena as well. She takes her place beside her teammate, anticipating her opponent's arrival anxiously. This isn't her first rodeo in a tournament, especially with a partner, but she has yet to even meet her opponent and doesn't know what to expect at all.
Well you're eager. Where is this lady anyway?
She brushes her hair aside, out of the way of her eyes, and looks around the arena, takeing interest in the pillars as if planning out a use for them in her head.
(edited by Arisu)
(Suddenly, rep is there) just waiting for my fight
A woman dressed in a green and yellow jacket would wander in with a grin on her face, she's also armed with both a set of greeves on her legs, and a set of metal gauntlets upon her hands.
"Oh! So I guess you guys are my foes tonight then!? Chie Satonaka, nice ta meetcha! Now, let's have a good clean match shall we!"
She'd bow to them for a moment, not taking her eyes as she does so, before quickly springing into a fighting stance with her fists raised toward the two... Punches aren't even her thing, but no need to show that off early!
AY, CHIE, YA JOINING ONE IF EM, OR YA JUST BEING A MORON
Entering the stands, the scientist known as Colress takes a seat, opening his laptop and beginning to quickly type on it. He eyes the arena as the combatants take their places, looking quickly between his screen and the fighters. He stops typing and sighs, a smile forming on his face as he looks down at Chie.
This is sure to be a most intriguing experience. One side is hopelessly outnumbered, yet faces their foe all the same... Wonderful! This is what a strong fighting spirit is all about!
He chuckles before putting his fingers to the keyboard once again, occasionally looking down at the arena to see the fighting, but is generally absorbed in his typing.
However, at Reperzel's outburst, he turns his head and glares, yelling at him with almost a hiss.
Be silent, you obnoxious ignoramus! No one wants to hear your obscene comments!
(edited by Achroma)
(He looks over at other guy) WELL FUCK YOU TO MATE
(edited by Reperzel)
Seraph comes to Alice's aid, whisking her away and spiraling up the nearest pillar. Once atop it, the persona sets her down so that she is now standing atop it thus giving her the height advantage.
Do you even have a persona or any kind of magic Chie? I mean, I am fighting to win here but I don't want it to be an absolute slaughter or anything.
Snarky comment now in place, Alice puts her hands together and prays. Her first step towards victory today will be by buffing herself and her teammate's damage output. A shimmering light falls upon the two teammates and makes it apparent that the blessing is now in effect.
Alright then train boy, go ahead and wow me!
(edited by Arisu)
Lowe nods to Alice, her buff surging through his body. He closes his eyes and turns away from his arm, ripping the bandage-like cloth off with an audible tearing sound. He shakes his arm a bit, never gets easier.
So, you're our opponent, eh? A 2v1 hardly seems fair, and I'm still not too keen on fighting chicks; but, hey it was your call. Let's make this a good one.
He darts to his side, standing in front of the pillar Alice was atop. Obviously trying to protect his support. He throws one arm forward, a green circle appearing in the air in front of him.
Alright, let's rock! Taurus Cluster!
From the circle, ten railroad spikes fire out, right toward Chie. They flew outward in a fan shape, hoping to cover as much of the area as possible.
The woman's smile widens, she's clearly forcing herself to look cheerful in an effort to hide the rage she's feeling. Doesn't like fighting "chicks" huh? Grr.
"Oh is that so? Well, lets see how you feel about that by the time I'm done ya jerk!"
A blue card forms in front of Chie, she'd smash it bits with a smirk as the railroad spikes fly toward her, a tall woman in Samurai armor and carrying a large double bladed laserblade would appear in front of Chie, the weapon spinning for a moment and sending half the spikes crashing out of the way, She'd dodge another 3, and by grazed by 2 more.
"Help me out! Haredao-No-Okami!"
Finally, Chie runs forward for a moment as her Persona rushes ahead of her, Haredao would crouch down and hold her blade in one hand, before raising the free one up. Chie herself leaps onto it as her Persona hovers upwards a bit, followed by tossing the woman right at Alice's face,
Chie's right leg aiming right for the girl's stomach as she soars through the air at her foe.
"WAAAAA-TAHHHHH!"
So...she has a persona and can kick people......thats "interesting"
Oh so you do have one! It looks so grand too!
Alice watched as Hardeao and Chie dealt with the spikes but she wasn't anticipating the amazing flying Chie and couldn't help but panic a bit as she rapidly approached her. Her instinct has always been to run rather than fight head on so she finds that her feet move by themselves as she takes a step back and, well, falls off.
Woah what the-... AAAA!
Although Alice was now out of the way, she had to somehow recover from this fall. The typical thing to do would be to have Seraph swoop in but since the angel was behind her, it too now has to try and avoid Chie. It gets its body out of the way but Chie's foot does slightly clip one of its six wings, causing it to falter temporarily mid-air. It'd still try to descend to catch Alice but she was farther ahead of it by now.
This is not how I planned this to go! TRAIN BOY CATCH ME!!!
Lowe had prepared to punish Chie's persona, but a certain scream snapped him out of that idea. He shook his head, and booked it for Alice, tackling her midair.
Y-you numbskull! Ugh, well, guess that could have gone worse.
Unfortunately, he was too caught up in catching her to punish Chie or her persona, so no harm done.
Sigh...let's see how long this fight will drag on
Chie grins at the success of her plan, to think that the boy would actually take that bait too!? Phew, she might be able to do something here despite the numbers, seems like he'll toss aside tactics in her defense... Not that she can talk about that too much.
"Alright, let's keep up the pace! AGNEYASTRA!"
Chie jumps, she'd actually leap off to the side and get clear her foes for now. Her Persona, on the other hand, spins her blade above her head, meteors would form in the air and begin crashing down, to be exact two would aim right at the group of foes, large blastwaves forming as Chie darts away from her own attack... And beyond that, a smaller meteor would crash into the pillar as well, it'd begin crumbling and rushing down toward Lowe and Alice, Chie herself fist pumping as the attacks fly at her targets.
"Alright! Hopefully, that'll do at least a little something!"
Idk why, but I wanna join
Ay, guy with the power glove, ya still there?
Having recovered from her dive, the relentless Chie creates another hurdle to overcome. Finally touching down to the ground with Lowe, the first thing she'd do is lead him out of the way of the falling pillar.
What even is this woman!? She's straight out of those old martial arts movies!
Assuming that the pillar no longer poses an immediate threat, and it somehow doesn't knock into any of the other pillars, the meteors have now become the main concern. By now Seraph, who had been trying to catch up to Alice before Lowe caught her, would be beside her once more and ready to be utilized. At least one of the meteors would have landed while trying to avoid the pillar, the blast wave being sure to punish them, but Alice would see to it that the second one didn't.
G-gah!! That is not happening twice!
Praying to Seraph once again, she starts putting more of her support prowess to good use as a barrier is erected above, and a couple feet around, Seraph. It was shimmering and yellow in color so it did seem to have an element to it but it's only purpose was to take the second blastwave and meteor, if they somehow hadn't avoided it during their time dodging the first meteor and the pillar, before she brought it down and allowed Lowe to deliver a counterattack.
No damsels in distress this time Lowe, get her!
Lowe only cringed as the first shockwave hit, and he was damn well prepared for another before he realized nothing was coming down. He looked up at the bubble around him, and sighed with relief. The boy smirked at Alice's comment, and got on his feet. He covered his face with one hand, holding out the other behind him in a dramatic pose. It's honestly hard to tell if he's messing around or not.
Eat this!
Right on cue, a bullet train zoomed out from beside the pair, Lowe's outstretched hand now firmly latched on to a handle on the side of it as he and the train zoomed right toward the retreating Chie. Thanks to Alice's earlier attack buff, it seemed to be moving extra fast. Almost to a "blink and you miss it" level of speed.
A young man with shaggy dark hair and Google's would walk into the stands and sit casually. He would look over at the strange man insisting on joining in on the fighting with a neutral expression. His eyes would be fully closed yet somehow you could still feel that he was looking at you.
"Hey, that wouldn't be a smart idea. I'm sure the contenders would appreciate it if you let them fight this out on their own."
Maybe...but I'm mostly known to be a big douchebag..also how the hell did I not notice ya?
(edited by Reperzel)
Leo would shrug and smile seeming to not mind the man's comments. He was used to people acting like that and had come to expect it.
"I just got here but I could only think that you didn't notice me because you weren't paying attention. I'm not exactly some master of stealth or anything like that."
Well of course ya aint a master of stealth, ya god damn eyes don't work
(edited by Reperzel)
Chie would not in fact blink, instead, her Persona darts in front of the train with a solemn look on its face... She's not sure this idea is good, but she can't just let that thing go.
"GOD'S HAND!"
A large glowing yellow fist forms in front of the Persona, she'd slam it in the path of the train with inhuman speed and strength, aiming to send the thing flying away from Chie and herself with a powerful right hook from the God's Hand. Of course, there's a chance she'd just be sent flying...
"As for me! I gotta keep you two feeling the pressure yeah!?"
Chie's not as fast her Persona, but she's pretty damn spry regardless, she'd rush across the field quick as she can, if she reached the girl unharmed, she'd then aim to send a quick jab from her left fist at Alice, metal gauntlet and all, that'd hurt pretty bad if it hits. Followed by trying to sweep the girl off of her feet with a spin kick from her right leg.
"HIII-YAHHHH!"
Leo would give the man a questioning look as if not knowing what he was talking about.
"It's not smart to make assumptions like that where I come from. That can get someone killed or worse. I guess making assumptions is probably a little safer here but I still don't think it'd be the best thing to do."
Mate. I've been ta jail bout nine times so I can give less of a shit mate
(edited by Reperzel)
"Just a fair warning. Jail though...I don't think I've heard about a place like jail in a while. Most criminals I think just get executed on the spot by the police. Oh, except Mr. Hummer and Brody but I think that's a bit more high security than what you're talking about."
But, I've escaped 8 of em, so I'm basically a wanted criminal
"Criminal?"
Leo would stare at him for a moment with his closed eyes as if not sure wether to take him seriously or not.
"Haha, nice joke. As if a wanted criminal would be hanging around so out in the open like this. You had me there for a moment but a old friend of mine played a similar trick on me when we first met."
Alice regained a bit of her confidence as Lowe's attack was enough to provide a moment to breathe for her although not too long as, before she knew it, Chie was coming at her yet again.
She can really keep up even when the numbers are stacked against her huh... Ugh not again.
She had at least a little bit more time to prepare now that Chie wasn't being launched by her persona and, as such, was able to receive her spear from Seraph at long last. Of course it'd be kind of dumb to try to take on a martial artist in melee combat so instead she has Seraph surround envelope her in her wings for protection.
This time I'm ready for you, come get it!
Whereas before it'd be a tight embrace, there are now little openings between the wings that Alice utilizes to poke her spear through in hopes of piercing Chie as she beats at the persona.
I've killed a whole tonna people, mostly random people, cut them in half, punched, them to death, twisted necks....murder innocent family's, ya know, the useal
(edited by Reperzel)
But that's probably normal for ya
Leo would give the man a serious look through his closed eyelids.
"Please stop making jokes like that. It's not very funny."
(edited by Leonardo_Watch)
Ya wanna hear a joke? I once forced druged a man to death....ohhhh the screams he made..the way he said he wanted more...ahahaaa
Lowe lept off the side of the train, as it was sent flying from that God's Hand. He sighed, recovering from the landing.
Man, just had that thing painted, thanks for that.
The thing faded away, and Lowe crossed his arms in front of him. In one hand, pointing toward Chie, was a green circle, that fired ten more railroad spikes, this time in a straight cluster toward the girl, and much faster than last time. If they hit, then woohoo, and if Chie were to dodge then they'd hit Seraph's wings hopefully not do too much damage. In his other, he held a real-ass gun, and fired real-ass bullets at Haredao-No-Okami. Five of them in fact.
Leo would turn away from the man as if bored with his poor jokes. He would be looking straight forward without his eyes even open yet he still seemed to follow the movement of the fighters somehow.
"Yeah, sure. Sounds interesting..."
I EVEN ONCE HANGED A KID, OHHHHHHAHAHAHAHAHA..
Chie ducks down, one of the spikes would slam into her left shoulder as she's doing so, however, that arm's feeling a bit sluggish. Thankfully, it did allow her to evade the stabs. And the rest of Lowe's spikes still doesn't feel great...
"Alright, time to kick it up a notch!"
Haredao-No-Okami dashes, she'd move back and to the side with some pretty impressive speed, but alas a couple of the bullets still slam into her armor. The impact causes summoner and Persona to reel for a moment, but she'd soon enough recover to spin her blade above her head,
this time, however, it'd cause an odd multi-colored light to cover herself and Chie, raising all their stats as the woman smirks.
"Dragon Hustle!"
Chie then picks up her attack once more, she'd pull the spike from her shoulder with a slight grimace, before quickly tossing the thing into the cracks that Alice has been stabbing from. Followed by tossing another, and then aiming her newly strengthened right leg at the wings, she'd attempt to dig her greeves into it and pull up on the wing to pry it open. If she did so, Chie would then try to hold it open with her right arm, followed by trying to move inside the "shield"
and lash out at Alice with a straight kick to the girl's chest, from her left leg, plus keeping her fists up to hopefully block the spear.
The Batter enters the stadium and sees Zane, walking over and pointing his bat towards him
"Spectre. I am here to finish the job. I challenge you to a fight to the death. Not here. But outside the stadium. The person behind the screen shall make us a battle ground. Do you accept?"
No.
The Batter then stands awkwardly around. Putting his bat away as he turns around and walks out of the stadium. Back where he came from
Thank ya for fuckin' off mate
As soon as the first spike went through one of the openings, the spear would be pulled inside and stop appearing. Whether the spikes hit Alice or not can't be decided just yet as she hadn't made a groan or anything if they had hit her. In fact, all is relatively quiet in there until Chie is able to pry open the wings.
H-heh... Hi there.
The spikes had indeed managed to hit her, one on the leg and another in her side. The spike in her side was actually very close to her free hand, the one not holding her spear, which was cupped against her stomach. She pulled it away, revealing a ball of light that she'd immediately let loose. It flies out of the wing cocoon and darts to Lowe, allowing itself to be absorbed into him.
Please be gentle Chie-chan!
With her desperate prayer released and nothing left between herself and Chie, Alice takes the kick, which has been a long time coming, but not before Seraph can bring Chie into the cocoon and reseal itself with the two of them inside!
Anyways...this fight has been going on for god knows how long
Lowe turned to the sealed angel, and could tell what Alice was thinking. Why else would she refresh his attack buff?
God, I hope this works.
He presses two fingers to his forehead, glaring daggers at Seraph.
Denshakosappo!
This was just for flash of course, as he thrust his arm forward, a train shooting out from behind him at a speed almost too quick to see. Thanks to Alice's last-ditch buff, it was just as strong, if not moreso than before. It sped right toward the angel, and the two girls contained inside. It would hopefully collide, and slam into the persona, carrying it forward and smashing the angel, Alice, and Chie hard against the wall of the stadium, causing the place to quake ever so slightly before vanishing.
