Your destroyer has returned!
Hello hello lovely people! How were your last few hours? Did you make the most of them? I don't care if you did, because either way, it won't matter not long from now! So, without further ado, anyone care to volunteer for the role of "first victim?"
*Kalib approaches cracking his knuckles.*

What part of "we're going to save you", didn't you understand.
@imtherealklib
*Licking her black stained lips, she gives a leering grin, clearly amused.*

Aw, Klib. Honey. I'm touched. But I don't need to be saved! I've accepted my role as the destroyer of this world. All I'm doing is making it easier on you guys, so you don't have to be here when the destruction happens. Is that really so bad?
*Shivers go down his spine.*

Tch. I didn't want to fight you if I didn't need to. But if you're completely gone, then I guess I don't have a choice. Sorry, but this is going to hurt you a hell of a lot more than it's going to hurt me.

*He brandishes his spear.*
You're beginning to sound like me Ari3s
Hahahahaha! Do you honestly think I'm going to fight when it's just you? Really? Especially you? Of those least worthy of my presence? You should consider a comedy career.

Honey, come back when you have the others with you, and MAYBE I'll consider allowing you to be an opponent.
See, it's cute that you think you're that strong. Granted, I knew full well I was out of my depth. So I'll take you up on that offer to wait for back up.

*He finds a spot and sits down, waiting.*
Are you really the destroyer?
Security question: what was the Universe refered to as when it was first discovered?
I'd offer you some tea, but...I'm feeling a little selfish at the moment. Sorry dear.

But, you have at least one point. And I appreciate that you know how outmatched you are. But please, I only ask you don't underestimate my strength. I've grown a lot in that regard since I've accepted what I'm truly meant to be.
Ya know, the worst part is that I kinda dig this darker side of you. Only downside, is I like living and saving others just a hair more.

*He smiles*
Spare me. The notion that you believe you even have a sliver of a chance is both pitiful, and laughable.
Are you really planning on destroying a world just a year before the cycle restarts? What's the point!? Even if you manage to eradicate all life, it will just be replaced with fresh new life. Honestly, your redundancy is appaling
There must be sacrifices in order to create the perfect world
Wait, I just read the tag again. I didn't notice this was a roleplay thread. Sorry
*A shadow appears over the ground by Kalib. Looking up would grant the viewer a chance to see a figure dropping down from the sky. Upon closer inspection it seems to be Delta. A giant fist appears from his arm and slams into the ground, before dissipating with Delta flipping off of the fist and landing.*

Ari3s, I'm not leaving without saving you. I owe it to you as your friend.
Maybe I should attempt roleplaying some before the great collapse appears?
@Dark_Mona
I hope you realize how little I care.
The more suffering and pain, the better.
@Ari3s i'm sorry, i've never roleplayed before, mortal. Can you please explain it to me?
@Dark_Mona
OOC: Oop, nvm. Scratch that reply. I didn't realize you weren't roleplaying, lmao.

@Delta-M
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah~! I had a feeling you would arrive. But I'll repeat what I told Kalib, you have the roles all wrong, hun. It's I who will do the saving.
I doubt you need it with your claims of power, but if your in need of assistance ending this world, I will always be willing to help with that task.
@Ari3s OOC: well, we all make mistakes. Good thing all those mistakes will ve forgoten once the great collapse hits. Well, I guess I still remember them. Remembering the mistakes seems useless, though, since you will no longer exist. However, I still tend to be kind of embarrassed about my mistakes even though anyone who was around to witness those mistakes have perished into the void of nonexistence.

D-destroyer?

Would that mean you would kill me, Ari3s-sama?

...
@IamThou
I'm only trying to save you. You and everyone else! Just accept it, and it'll make this burden so much easier, my dear.
@Ari3s

...You've changed, Ari3s.
I gotta ask Ari3s, you write this speech yourself? I want to give you the benefit of the doubt...but I'd figure I'd ask anyway.

*Turning to Delta*

Welcome to Die I suppose. Care to take a seat till the cavalry arrives?
*He dramatically points at Ari3s with his right hand.*

Save the speech about right and wrong or whatever until after we save you. I don't care if I have to beat you down myself. We're getting you back to normal, and you're going to accept it.
Little ones, you don't need to worry. Ari3s is just a little bit sick.
@IamThou
I've merely accepted my role as the one who will undo all of man's mistakes. But to do so, you must understand that I have to eliminate every last one of you. Our world is already on the nearing destruction as it is. Pollution, declining availability of resources, war. Am I really in the wrong to want to expedite what is inevitable? And do you truly think you'd be just if you were to try to stop me?
Until the cavalry arrives Kalib? I guess if we have the time to, but...
We can make a stand need be, just have faith.
Tic, toc, tic, toc.

Hm. It seems our friends have abandoned you two. What a pity.
Awful confidant. Who says they aren't lying in wait? Looking for a chance to ambush you?
Drop the tough guy act, honey. I know they aren't here. No where to hide in a place as open as we are.
A lot of them like to overlook the less active of us, but that doesn't matter. We're not abandoning you, so if you're going to stop us from saving you let's get this over with. Are you with me Kalib?
Fair enough. But I wouldn't say it's an act. I'm not scared.

*He grins.*
Hell yeah!
Really? You don't fear death? The though of your passing, and everyone moves on like it's nothing, and being forgotten; doesn't faze you? I have my doubts.
*emerges from the shadows* Nowhere ta hide? Huh that's odd.
@Ari3s

You're no master of mine anymore...

*Walks away crying*
*pops out of nowhere* kill me, I'm sexy!
*She watches as @IamThou runs away, disgust present on her face.*

Hm. What a pity. In the end, it seems everyone turns their back to you.

*Then, she turns her attention to the three, completely indifferent.*

Very well, shall we carry on then?
@Starwaddle
I will not waste my effort on you.
Aww...but I'm sexy...*shoots self in the head before disappearing*
Dammit Star get back please! And as for you we'll deal with this.
*pops back in* oh alright! So what's the plan? Explosions?
I'd rather not kill her actually. Anyone got a clue what's going on?
*Humming the Jeopardy theme, mockingly.*
*Ramses appears behind Delta ad points his staff at Ari3s*

Only if the end result is saving you. Let's do this. The rest of you better be ready.
Oh don't worry, I know how to hurt and not kill with explosions. Remember the tower, and how everyone didn't die?
How are we saving her Delta? I mean violence is great but it doesn't seem like it'll solve this.
Gah! Sorry, passed out due to boredom.

*Stands up brandishing his spear.*

Oh hey Star and Tatsu!
Sup Kalib.
Finally, one of you get it. Violence, in your case, is not where you find solace. In death, however, perhaps.
Sup? So, how about we explode the darkness out of her?
*warps in*
So what? Possessed by Darkness or something?
Something to that effect Shinji...
Seems it. Also I'd rather find solace or whatever with my girlfriend. She'd probably be sad if I die so screw you!
I can Manipulate Darkness, Why Don't you just have me suck it all out of her...
Love, too, is a concept I find irrelevant.
Yeah. Thinking about exploding the darkness out of her. Think it's a good plan? Also, I think this is advanced darkness, so it's going to fuck everyone over if someone has it in them...how about we put it in a jar?
Nobody is dying here Ari3s. You came here asking for a first victim right? What are you planning on doing to that volunteer.
I can jar that Darkness, Easy...

*pulls out grimoire*
I already volunteered...I want to die!
Delta, you should know better than that.

What else but to grant them the sweet release that death brings?
Will a jar work? Also I don't care what you find meaningless thingy possessing someone.
I think you earned yourself a Death Note
Light nobody cares.
Aw, Tatsuya. You hurt me. It's me~! Everybody's favorite Ari-chan~!
Nah, Nobody needs to die, I can store the darkness in my Grimoire,
I'm just about to kill myself for the hell of it. Who wants my dead body as a meatshield!?
Huh uh, I'm sure you're really Ari. Just like I'm the king of knights.

And alright Shinji beating it out of her should work is what I'm hearing?
Star please don't kill yourself. *He grins* I'd rather you blow things up!
Pfft king of nights? What are you 12?
...*pulls out two PRGs* way ahead of you... hehehe! *Creepy and insane smile*
Knights. And I'm not dumbass like that isn't Ari.
Well of course I am! Buuuuuuuuut, I'm not so sure about you being the king of knights. You don't look like one. A king is supposed to look...not weak.
Good post
The king of knights has been dead for ages. It's another name for King Arthur.
Oh, yeah. You're not him. He's strong. And you're...you.
...*pulls out her fake Excalibur*
Or... I could just extract it... that works too...
Him? You're badly informed Ari-chan he's a she last I saw... Though that varies by Universe.
Can we just start the explosions already!?
Extract it Shinji? Give it a shot if you think it's safe.
Blah, bla-blah, bla-blah. All you people do is talk. How boring.
Not until we're sure we need them. Be patient Star.
*shrugs* I'd rather not fight at all if can avoid it.
I know, right!? Come on! I can't wait much longer!
Sure, Lets try this out.

*begins pulling the Darkness into the Grimoire*
You went on about righting mankind's wrongs and ending the world... but why do you have to? You're the one that solved some of the biggest puzzles that stumped us. Why is this the "true" you and not the one that helped us get this far? Why did you even give us this chance to gather here? You could have just started doing what you wanted... Ari what's your real game here?
Gonna take a while, Lots of Darkness in there, So make sure she doesn't kill me in the mean time please...
*nods* Kay we'll take care of it. Though I do so hate escort missions!
*passes out while chugging some wine*
I can still dodge, I just can't use magic While I'm doing this, That means no warping....
My game?

...Tragedy. What fun is there without tragedy? Everything is so...boring. Why not spice things up? You should be thanking me. I made your lives interesting, and enticing.

Tragedies bring people together. And what better than the better tragedy of them all then to witness those you care for drop like flies? That is why I've been waiting.
Too much talk
*Wakes Star up with Samarecarm* For God's sake can you ever be serious Star... Wait I know you can't but whatever.
Tragedies do bring people together, but like hell if people are going to stand by and let them happen.
Oh my... hello? May I ask where I am right now?
They will try to prevent them. But their efforts will only make the effects so much worse.
YOU HAVE ARRIVED, at the end.
What is going on??
*wakes up* wake me up when the fighting starts. *Falls asleep*
Mhhm hmmm heard it all before. You sound like Nyarly.
*Takes a step forward.*

I'm not throwing the first punch here Ari. If what you're saying is true then you shouldn't have to wait any longer. Take a stab at me if you want. We'll see how tragic you plan on making this.
BLAH blah BLAH. Do something already! Come on, I daaaaaaaare you- no! Double dare you.
Why the violence???
We already are Ari. It just isn't a blind attack.
May I ask what is going on?
I hear peaches bruise easy Ma'am, I'd suggest getting out of the danger zone.
...Boring.

*Without so much as a warning, she brings a hand forward, casting Maragidyne.*
Two Fifths of the way there guys...
WHOA!
*sidesteps the Fire barely*
Danger zone??????
*Kalib winces but the fire passes.*

Tch. Just some fire? Wow, thought I had to be concerned for a sec.

*Kalib smiles.*

My turn. Leonidas! INFERNO!
*Apollo appears and blocks the attack* Come on fire? Against me at that.
This isn't any different than how a normal day is in the Mushroom Kingdom...
*burnt to death. Comes back behind Ari* hey. *Fires both RPGs at her
*cracks his knuckles.* Alright Apollo Nova Cyther! *A brilliant blast of flames surges towards Ari and merges with the inferno expanding till it covers about 30 feet around her* hmm another fusion spell?
*A quick cast of counter quickly negates most of the damage done by the explosives. What comes next is a round of Mamudo.*
*Opens a bag of chips*

Well then you people can carry along while I look for Mario.
*Ramses covers Delta and eats the brunt of the attack. Faint burn marks are visible on the Pharaoh.*

Damn it Ari! I didn't want it to come to this. I'm not letting you go through with this.

*While the others attack, he takes more steps towards Ari*
*Easily shrugs the darkness due to Apollo's resist* Little known fact Apollo actually resists dark magic.
*dies again, respawns behind Ari again* guilty. *Runs up and smacks her with Judgement*
Halfway there...
*A persona mask appears on his face at the sight of the mamudo. He lets it wash over him and continues his march forward.*
*Barely dodges the darkness.*

Dammit. She's not pulling punches!
*sucks up the dark attack*
Kinda useless...
Don't you resist or null dark Kalib? You toss it around easy enough.
*She quickly casts Fatal End on Delta, afterward casting Tarukaja on herself.*
Of course I resist it, but it's kinda hard to resist instant death...but no matter, time to knuckle down fellas!

SPARTAN ROAR!!

*Party ATK/DEF/SPD up*

Give her hell!
*Lakshmi casts Mediarahan on Delta* I'm not letting him go down.
*She lets out a roar of laughter, before casting Mabufudyne.*
*Jumps backwards*
Finally something to dodge...
Megaton Raid! *Summons Shadow-sona to hit Ari with a frying pan while still smacking her with Judgement...I don't think she's trying...*
*burps loudly*

Excuse me. Those chips were quite filling.
*He takes the hit, pausing briefly before standing up straight and looking Ari3s in eyes.*

Like I said. I'm not letting you do this. Ramses, Heat Riser!

*The pharaoh hits his staff on the ground, causing a multicolored aura to surround Delta.*
Uhhh.... Four sixths done...
Shit!

*Braces and takes the hit.*

OH! COLD! OH SO COLD!
*Sighs in relief as the ice washes over him for normal damage* Good thing I switched Apollo.
Walk it off you weenies. The cold is nothing if you have a hoodie on!
F-f-f-f-f-f-fuck of-f-f-f-f-f-f-f-f-f-f Star...
*She gives a wide grin, lurching forward as she waves a finger around. A random decision ultimately decides, and eventually she attempts to cast Control on Klib.*
Star isn't wrong. As long as you aren't weak to it you should be fine.
IT IS HILARIOUS THAT THESE BATTLES TAKE PLACE WHEN ALL IS TRANSIENT AND @Tatsuya SEEMS TO ESCAPE EVERY DAMN FIGHT UNSCATHED
Looking away is a mistake, Ari.

Ramses, Ziodyne.

*The pharaoh raises his staff and a bolt of lightning strikes Delta as he rushes towards Ari3s. The Lightning coalesces into his right are as he winds it back for a punch.*

Lightning Straight!

*He aims the punch right at Ari3s's side.*
*Kalib stands just in time to be hit with Control.*

OH NOW WHAT FRESH HELL IS THIS!?
Five Sixths, Almost done guys...
*looks over at Kalib* Hey man you okay?
*Once under the effects of Control, voices quickly take up the space in Kalib's mind, whispering things such as, "kill them, do it, kill them..." "obey the destroyer, she grants you solace.."*

*She takes the hit delivered by Lightning Strike, stumbling off to the side a bit. Her instant response is to cast Rebellion, quickly followed by Megidola.*
Get away Tatsu! I can't feel my body! It-....oh god...I've been possessed! Not like this! I don't need that snark from Gamma!!
CRAP!
*warps out of the way*
Make that four sixths now...
*Kalib's eyes lose any sense of life.*

As you command.

*Kalib charges towards Shinji ready to skewer his grimoire.*
OOC: Can I join? If not ignore my action.
IC: @Hillock pushes @Shinji away, taking Kalibs hit.
*Walks over and slaps Kalib* Feel better? Probably not. *Dodges back and summons Sarsvati to summon walls of Earth around Kalib than closing him in with a roof* Lemme know how that goes.
*pushes the spear aside with his open hand*
Gonna need to try harder than that...
*Once more, Ramses shields him from the brunt of the damage, but his form begins to flicker. Without a second thought, Delta rips off his Persona mask. Dismissing Ramses and summoning Satan.*

I'm not done yet Ari! Diamond Dust!

*A giant fist made of ice forms above Ari before dropping on her.*
You want some heat? Blazing Hell! *Hits Klib(even though he's in cover) and Ari*
*She quickly leaps back, dodging the fist by mere milliseconds.*

You're going to need to try a little harder than that!

Let me show you how.~

*And after that, she casts another wave of Control, this time directing it at Delta.*
*From outside, all that can be seen is tendrils of darkness erupting from the chamber of earth, before violently erupting in a blaze of obsidian flames. Kalib steps out, his spear ablaze with the obsidian flames.*

Must kill. Leonidas, Brave Blade.

*Kalib and Leonidas both charge towards Hillock and Shinji, respectively.*
No! *Tackles Delta before he gets hit with control*
TALOS! TETRAKARN!
*Cast 1 physical shield around him*
That would have been useful for me Hill!
*runs towards Leo and slides under the attack*
You want to try that on me? I'm not so easily-

*He stops abruptly and stares blankly at Ari3s. Satan roars at her before casting another Diamond Dust, this time the ice trying to encase Ari3s and freeze her.*
*Satan appears and intercepts the brave blade* Wrong move Kalib you know Satan reflects physical.

OOC Yes that's my turn.
Thanks Tats!
Five Sixths again!
*The spartan misses and Kalib hits himself due to the shield. A spark appearing briefly in his eyes.*

Slaughter. Spartan Rain.

*Leonidas begins throwing spears into the air trying to hit everyone.*
*She remains frozen in place for a few moments, before casting Agi to melt it away.*

Your attacks hold little meaning here. The ground you tread on, the air you breathe; all of it thanks to me!

And this is how you thank me? How Ungrateful!

*A swift casting of Deathbound is casted afterward.*
*Leonidas also hits himself. Whoops.*
Hehehe! Death...kill...*heat rises self*
@Shinji, and your magic?!
*The deathbound crashes into Tatsuya and is reflected at Ari* I still reflect physical attacks! *Satan fires a Megidolaon at Kalib and Ari*
Can't use it right now Hill!
*is hit by a stray attack*
Gah! Make that four again...
Someone stop star from killing her please!
Hehehehehe! Death...death to all! *Star is focused*
*Runs to @Shinji's position*
TAKE COVER! *Activates his omega shield, absorving any posible projectile*
(Like Athena's shield in borderlans)
*Kalib is sent flying and hits his head. He doesn't move.*
*runs over and smacks Star* Keep it together please? I'm worried about ya.
(Ignore the vacant eye thing. Star took the hit.)

*Delta is hit by the Deathbound, but stands his ground regardless. Satan blocks the attacks from Spartan Rain.*

....Black Viper.

*Beneath Ari3s a swirling darkness is formed. From it, numerous vipers rise up to lunge at his with their fangs.*
Thanks Hill, I owe you.
Hehehe! Nothing can stop the pain train! Megidolaon! *Summons Shadow-sona to fuck everyone's shit up*
Gah, you are defenseles without this
*gives @Shinji the shield*
Dont lose it!
*gets knocked down by the attack than staggers up* Guys I could use some healing!
*Kalib suddenly rises, with a violent look in his eyes.*

Listen here bitch. Killing my friends is one thing, but making me kill them...un-fucking-acceptable.

XERXES! Show her true pain. BLAZING HELL!

*A pool of flames surrounds Ari3s.*
*Takes the shield and warps to dodge the attack*
Back down to half guys, A bit of help here?
*Shock quickly finds itself onto her previously cocky expression as the vipers rise up. She attempts to get out of the way, but it's in that moment that a crushing Megidolan hits her. She hits the ground, hard. Struggling to sit up, she casts Vorpal Blade.*
Hehehe! All shall die before me! *Star is focused*
*Summons Lakshmi again to cast Mediarahan* Alright anyone got any ideas?
Focus less on Killing her and more on protecting me please!!!
*draws his M60 and shoots Star in the chest* Hopefully that slows her down.

Ejo wants to help me with @Star?!
Alright now I just need to-

*The Megidolaon hits him and Satan hard and the Persona returns to mask form. He staggers to his feet and swaps masks before summoning Beelzebub to block the Vorpal Blade.*

Ari... you can't even stand right now. Please, just stop this.
OCC: Lol my phome
Tch. Fine. I won't kill her because the weaker me wouldn't want a friend to die...even if they're a villain.

*Kalib? runs to Shinji and stands next to him.*

Xerxes, a shield if you'd be so kind.

*The shadowy figure appears and throws up walls all around the battlefield. Turning it into a labyrinth almost.*
But first-
SIRIUS BLACK! MEDIARAHAN!
*Casts Mediarahan*
*The pool of flames engulf, and scorch her, pained cries of agony reverberating against all surfaces. She attempts to to stand up, and manages to do so, though barely.*

I w-won't...gah..

*Then, before falling, she whispers, "Die for me." Casting the spell of the same name, and collapsing.*
Hehe-ouch! Damn that hurts! Now you've made me raving mad! *Heat rises self*
Lucky! Thanks for that Ari!
That's five sixths!
Oh shit!
*Tries to evade @Ari3s attack attack*
Shitshitshitshitshit
*Looks in in horror as he collapses from the spell* Shit shoulda... Used Lucifer... Somebody raise me.* He falls down*
Kinda can't use magic, someone get Tats!
*Notices @Tatsuya*
Come here!
*grabs him*
QUICK!
Hey Hill, Do you have that magic repelling shield spell? If ya do can you cast it on me...
Fuck. You morons can't do anything right. Samrecarm, Xerxes!
Hehehe! That power looks important! Mine now! *Starts to suck up all the darkness*
Yes I have it.
SIRIUS! MAKARAKARN!
*Cast Makarakarn on @Shinji*
*wakes up and looks around* Ugh thanks whoever did that. Now it's time for Armageddon! *Lucifer and Satan appear to fire a massive wave of light at Star* Sorry pal bit this seems needed.
*There she lies, limp, all signs of life in her eyes gone, as cataracts begin to form in her eyes, creating a glossy, faint blue color.*
Just in time!
*the Makarakarn prevents Star from taking any darkness*
Ari...

*The attack washes over Delta and he falls to a knee, Beelzebub starting to fade along with his consciousness.*

Damn it all... I don't want it to end like this... Ramses...

*He crawls towards Ari and tries to see if she's alive before he fades.*
Aaaaaannd FINISHED!
*closes grimoire sealing the darkness inside*
That's all folks!
*Kalib? sighs and walks up to Delta and Ari3s*

Tch. The other me is such a weakling, to care about an enemy...Xerxes, let them taste Salvation!

*A cleansing light washes over everyone, except Star. Bad Star. And Kalib?'s eyes go back to being kind.*

Huh!? Delta you okay!? Ari3s?!
Not today assholes! This is my true power! Morning Star! *Suddenly, space lasers hit everyone*
Xoic...
Null...
*A void surround the party*
*There is breathing, albeit very faint, and light. the breathing hitches, as she takes in a desperate, raspy breath. As crimson begins to trickle down the corner of her mouth, a weak, and clearly pained smile forms on her face.*
Clutch timing Lux!
*tries to run to @Ari3s, gets hit by a laser*
GAAH! ... Shinji, the shield! Use it!
*walks by and heals everyone with Mediarahan*
Jesus Christ can't even go for a walk without you guys getting into trouble.
*Lux falls to his knees*
You all owe me for this...
Yoink! *Grabs grimoire and runs*
*stares at Lux in shock* Thanks for the save man. *Begins firing his gun at Star's head* Keep that up I don't want to be nuked by lasers!
*He falls to his knees.*

C'mon! Ari3s get up! This isn't funny!!
*pulls out scythe, warps behind Star and swings at her neck*
*summons grimoire back to hand*
Soulbound Star, You think I'm not prepared for that?
Ari... Ari please stay with us!

*He drops down and grabs one of her hands.*

You're not supposed to die at the end of this! We're supposed to look back at this and laugh, not cry!
*gets up, and tries to reach @Ari3s and the rest*
@Ari3s, do you hear me? Ari3s?!
*dodged everything* nope nope nope! *Still running*
I still need you all to take me to a palace after all...
*Lux stands back up*
*She rolls onto her back, slowly. Staring directly up, her soft smile only wavers for a second. Her breaths are slow, and faint; almost barely audible. A weak, hoarse chuckle breezes through her wind pipes.*
Good thing I sealed the darkness into myself.
Damn it! Stay with us! Yell at me for doing something dumb! Get those twins to buy you something! Help Hillock with his spy stuff! Don't leave!
*Hyperion casts Debilitate on Star* Somebody follow up!
Ha! I have the power! Or some of it! Whatever! Time travel, away! *Disappears in a puff of smoke*
What's in the book...?
Shit, someone check her vitals!
*Grabs a basic medic kit*
I need help!
You guys are so...stupid. T-The hell are you freaking out for?

You did it. You beat the bad guy...

Saved the world.

You should be...celebrating.

Go. L-Leave me. Have fun. Live your lives.
Just random magics, I sealed the real Darkness inside myself, All she got was Ether, Useless.
*His eyes begin tearing up, despite his best efforts to hold them back.*

Still hitting us with your snark even know, huh? I guess this is how it's meant to be then... But that doesn't mean I have to like it. At the end of all this, at the end of what's been going on with the Nexus you were supposed to be there with us Ari. I don't want to accept this...
I'm not leting you die, that's what we are doing!
You okay, with that darkness inside you?
Hey lux, Mind taking that Anti-magic field down for a sec?
*pops up* hey guys have you seen me anywhere? I can't find me.
*Sighs* I'll kick her ass I really​ will. *Hyperion casts Salvation on Ari* We didn't want to kill you idiot. Now come on there's no reason to give up here!
Oh yea, Darkness is my main element, this is nothing compared to usual.
*The void fades*
Whatever, the fights over...
*stares at her mind boggled* I just saw you yes... Oh fuck that was another you wasn't it? I knew she seemed worse than normal!
*grabs lux and Warps the both of them away*
*Kalib's eyes flicker back and forth before growing violent again.*

Look...nobody hear wants you dead, so if you don't get that through your skull, I'm gonna heal you into next week, understood?
Yeah...you think I'm going to come from another Nexus and actually get that darkness?
*concentrated with his medic kit*
*he sighs* I can never tell with you Star. Well whatever at least it wasn't you.
*The magic seems to have little effect other than to soothe the pain she's currently going through.*

S-Shut up, Delta. No one ever asked you to accept s-shit. This is my burden to bare alone.

These are the cards I were dealt for the beginning. The fate that was predetermined even before my conception.

Kalib. All that shit I said earlier. I-I didn't mean it. You're probably one of the strongest here. You've proved that...time and time again.

Someone, please. Apologize to Lavenza, or the twins, or whatever it is she may be once I'm gone. I'd hate for her to be all bent out of shape over something I didn't mean.
You. Are. Not. Going. To die!
C'mon, I need help!
Oh walk it off! I mean, look, you didn't want this to happen, right? Well then, as a goddess I can grant you the gift of Life...but, you have to worship me as your lord and savior.
*walks over* what do ya need Hill? I know a bit about this.
*appears and casts salvation on Ari*
It may not work, But you can't say I didn't try.
...I'm sorry, Star. I'm a die-hard atheist. P-Pun not intended.
Fuck fate. Who says we have to deal with a bum hand? Come on.
Just... help me with this!
*points the medic kit*
And follow my lead!
O-Oh. Tatsuya...

I almost forgot you were here...I'm sorry.

I'm kinda repeating myself here, but I didn't mean what I said.

Love is...a beautiful thing. Hold onto it, real tight.

They may start to seem like menial things as you go on, but the little "I love yous" go a long way. Don't ever not tell your lady that.
Fine then, take it. I was joking about the religious shit anyway. I mean, I don't have time for that!
Then you leave me no choice....
*crushes Plume of Dusk and scatters the dust over Ari's body*
And here you are still trying to stop the rest of us from sharing your pain... Ari I should have realized how strong you were trying to be for all of us... But you're wrong about baring this alone. I care about you, Kalib cares about you, and so many more people in the Nexus are going to mourn for you. If this is truly the end then I at least want you to allows us that right. You're one of the best people I met here, so let me keep caring about you until the end.

*Tears have starting falling down his face, but he's attempting to smile through it.*
Well if you've accepted your end....the other me should have a chance to say goodbye. But, you're a hell of a gal, I wish we could've talked more.

*Kalib?'s eyes change back to normal.*

Ari, if this is what you want then there's no stopping you. But, know that we all cared for you until the bitter end!

*Tears begin falling down his face.*
*gives Ari the gift of Life and all that bullshit*
. . .

I.

*Her lips quivers, as tears begin to roll down her cheeks. Though she holds her smile nonetheless.*

I never really though I was worth that much. A-Ahaha.

I kinda always saw myself as someone you guys just tolerated.

I don't know if this is the end. But I can't feel a majority of my body anymore. Everything feels so...light. Like nothing weighs anything anymore.

Is this what death feels like?
*He grabs one of her hands, still crying and forcing a smile.*

You're not alone Ari! And we'll see each other again someday! We'll take care of this world so you don't have to worry!
*he nods at her* I know all about that Ari there's not a thing that means more than Maya.

And I'm not someone you know all that well but I'd always wanted to know you better... *He grimaces* I guess I'm saying we should of been friends.
Hahaha. What are you kidding?

You honestly think, that I want any of this?

*Finally, her smile gives way, and falls.*

...This fucking sucks.

I'm hating every second of this.

I don't want to die. I-I'm terrified.

But I can feel things continuing to fade around me. Figures becoming blurry..
God damnit! Stay with us! *Gives the gift of Life harder...and now she's just smacking her in the face to make sure she doesn't die*
Y-You still have to teach me on t-the way of the cypher...
Shit! You are not dying!
Then fight. Rebel against death, and choose to live instead.
Wait...is anyone checking her pulse!? *Checks pulse*
...

..Someone. Please.

Take me to my room.

I wanna be able to feel the comfort of my bed, at least one last time.
Shut up! SHUT UP!
One last time? It's not as though you have to die here. We Persona users aren't so easily ended after all.
F-Fuck it.

I can walk, dammit.

*She struggles to get up, her motions seeming to give off the fact that every muscle and fiber in her being was fighting her through this action. Slowly, she would rise to her feet.*
Can but probably shouldn't. Trust me I know a thing or two about pushing yourself.
*starts shoving Plumes of Dusk into her body*
*Kalib picks her up.*

Nuh-uh. Save your strength dammit.
Damn it Ari, at least let us help you now. Come on, lean on me.

*He takes one of her arms and wraps it over his shoulder.*

Someone get her other side.
S-Shut up, Tatsuya.

You don't know, s-shit--...ack-

*She would fall onto her knees, a loud thud coming with the impact. She wouldn't waste a second, struggling her way onto her feet again, a confidant smile finding it's way to her.*

I-I'm not ready to go yet. If I'm leaving this world, it's going to be on my own damn terms.
Wait...oh my God... can't I just time traveling and make it so all this doesn't happen in the first place?
*Kalib barks at Star.*

NO! Enough! We don't need anything else going wrong! And what good would that do "US" we're in this time. Not the timeline you would change.
I-I... I...
*He doesn't know what to do now. He is really conflicted internally*
I don't know shit? Hmm no I'm pretty sure I know a fair bit about the supernatural at least... And killing it of course.
Can, but probably shouldn't, Star.

*Taking a moment to stick a tongue out at Tatsuya.*

If you do, then what would we have learned? That nothing has consequences? What's the point in that?

I-I'm fine as I am. Besides, I've...learned a lot from this.
Nope no time travel. It's always a mess, almost a Grail war kinda mess.
...good point...but if she dies, then I'm doing some bullshit and bringing​ her back...time machine or not...
Let's just get out of here. This place is...fucking depressing.
Can we just wait to see if she survives?! Look at her! She doesn't look like someone who's given up just yet!

*Kalib moves to support her as she tries to walk.*
How do you plan on saving Are then?
Those wounds seem beyond any of our healing magic.
...
......
W-Wait! *Follows the group*
Fuck it. If she lives I'm baking a cake.
Tell us where to go, and we'll get you there one way or another.

*Moves to assist Kalib in helping Ari.*
*walks behind them* I'd help but it seems excessive.
Fuck it. I'm following, but not saying anything or doing anything.
Again, how are we going to save Ari?
Do you have some idea how we can seal those wounds?
...2342, Morrow Street. That's where I live.

I...don't know how to get there from here.
