Zyarc (RP, C)

[Fuzz]

[Talvas, Grand Forge: Fuzz, Adam, Kalidor]

Fuzz took a tight hold on the hilt of his last sword and, pulling back, he threw the sword, hurling it against the wall and sending it flying about 3 inches from Kalidor's face.

[Nemesis]

*he threw a crimson blade at the shell countering it
*he disappeared as soon as he threw the blade*

(there are 2 crimson blades hovering in the air, and 3 hidden crimson blades...)

[x adams]

((Dude the crimson blades make my head hurt lol))

[Marcus McCloud]

[Subterranean Necropolis; Marcus]

A tear dripped down Marcus' cheek. The fingers of the catatonic form twitched. Breathing was learned again. The open, expressionless eyes focused on the ceiling of the dark cave. A sudden cough echoed in the cavern. Marcus rolled over. A weak, trembling cry awakened the rocks. "Marcus... where are you?" (She) looked at her hands and more tears welled from (her) eyes. "Marcus! Where is your consciousness!?!" (She) looked at (her) surroundings. "I'm alone... for the first time... I am alone." (She) wept at the point where she was taken by the darker conscience. "Always Brother had been there... always..." (She) opened a portal. "Marcus?... Gone? Why did he do that? Why did he use himself as a shield within his own mind for someone he knew could leave it without harm?" (She) focused the portal to the Grand Forge, feeling a battle there. "I won't let anyone else die for me!" She stepped through.

[DrNumaNuma]

((Then where are the other 3 Nem?))

[Shadow Realm: Nwura, Lucian, Nem, tsod]

In the darkness, Lucian begins to sing softly,

"War leaves its trail
In moonlight so pale
Its shadows they flow
In rivers, in rivers
So put on my mask
I'll go where they ask
So I might once again see the
Roses of May."

He laughs a little. "Do you like it? The soldiers in Nara sang it before their campaigns. It was to remind them that even no their cause was just, monstrous things were to be done by their hands. I've lived by this too. You're too wet behind the ears to beat me."

[DrNumaNuma]

[Talvas, Grand Forge: Fuzz, Adam, Marcus, Kalidor]

Kalidor ignores Marcus's entrance, draws his claymore, plants the blade into the stone floor, and waits.

[Fuzz]

[Talvas, Grand Forge: Fuzz, Adam, Marcus, Kalidor]

"That wasn't a gesture of war, that was my only weapon and it's now closer to you then me. All I want is one question answered and I'll leave, no more questions asked, can you do that?" Fuzz asked.

[DrNumaNuma]

[Talvas, Grand Forge: Fuzz, Adam, Marcus, Kalidor]

"Yes?"

[Fuzz]

[Talvas, Grand Forge: Fuzz, Adam, Marcus, Kalidor]

"What does your master want you to do? That's it"

[DrNumaNuma]

[Talvas, Grand Forge: Fuzz, Adam, Marcus, Kalidor]

"To bring an end to mortals."

[Fuzz]

[Talvas, Grand Forge: Fuzz, Adam, Marcus, Kalidor]

"As a mortal, I take slight offense to that. Is there anything I can say that might change your mind?"

[DrNumaNuma]

[Talvas, Grand Forge: Fuzz, Adam, Marcus, Kalidor]

"There is none." He states.

[Nemesis]

(that's the problem... you can't see them...)

the shadow realm lies dormant as he chants the words...

[DrNumaNuma]

((Show don't tell please))

[Shadow Realm; Lucian, Fuzz, nemesis, tsod, Nwara]

"You're no fun. You're heart's not in this fight."

[Fuzz]

[Talvas, Grand Forge: Fuzz, Adam, Marcus, Kalidor]

"Then...I can't let you go." Fuzz stares back.

[DrNumaNuma]

[Talvas, Grand Forge: Fuzz, Adam, Marcus, Kalidor]

"Do what you will then." Kalidor places a hand on the pommel of his claymore.

[The Shadow of Death]

(WE BUSTED 1000 POSTS!...... again....)

[Shadow Realm: Nwura, Lucian, Nem, me]

Nwura waved a hand as Lucian's cape shreded, while i spoke, "i have created worlds and civilizations, i have destroyed some of them, i have created more bloodshed than you, doc, Kalidor, Ana, and Spidey put together. i am the heart of battle, you are wet behind the ears to be so nieve!" i thrust a hand forward as space folds in on itself, creating gamma radiation so intense that what was left of the city burned.
"you are

[The Shadow of Death]

nothing but an abomination in the eyes of your original creator! begone!"

[DrNumaNuma]

((Gamma rays don't work like that tsod))

[Shaodow Realm: tsod, Lucian, Nemesis, Nwura]

"Heh, a am a monster, that's why he likes me." Even without his cloak, Lucian remains invisible. "That's also why he likes Doc as much as he does. I'll let you in on a secret. Doc wasn't always a Doc. Well, not like you think. He's a microbiologist. He specialized in creating infectious diseases that killed untold billions across hundreds of worlds. Civilizations? Ha! We've eliminated entire empires across dozens of star systems. We've sent plenty of souls to your master. I'm not about to stop. After I'm dead, I'm going straight to hell and sit on the black throne myself."

[The Shadow of Death]

(oh well, it was the first kind of radiation that came to mind.)

"hell? you wont be going there! you will be going somewhere much worse! a place i have made for those like you!
"Nwura, hes all yours!"
Nwura walked forward, straight to Lucian, being able to see everything. she opened her mouth, letting it expand as she stretched taller. she then bent over, and stooped down to swallow Lucian whole.
"a living prison of mirrors, where not even i have power!"

[DrNumaNuma]

[Mirror realm: Lucian]

"Heh he he he he he he he he he HE HE HE HE HEH!!!!!

Lucian delves into maniacal laughter in the realm. He extends a katar and plunges it into his abdomen. Light begins to stream from the wound and then his eyes, laughing all the while. Time suddenly stops and a titanic burst of energy bursts forth from every orifice. The blast reached the edge of the realm, punching through the invisible boundary and through Nwura's body.

[The Shadow of Death]

(damn it! everything bounces off of her!)

as the blast expanded it found no end, but went on perpetually, going nowhere as a darkness reached up, absorbing it. Nwura finished swallowing what was left in the place Lucian was.

[DrNumaNuma]

((Yeah, off her. I'm inside))

[The Shadow of Death]

(i cant even do anything from inside her. you know the mirror realm? she is it, like Shadow is the shadow realm...)

[Nemesis]

(wow, and I thought the crimson blades confused people... no offense shadow...)

[The Shadow of Death]

(ahh! i missed the location tag on that post, sorry!)

[DrNumaNuma]

((To be frank, tsod's entire backstory is as confusing as hell))

[Shadow Realm: tsod, Nwura, Lucian, nemesis]

"How boring. I was hoping to see some burning entrails." A voice comes from the black. There are also several less bodies littering the ground from tsod and Lucian's earlier explosions. "Sorry honey. Wrong one."

[Nemesis]

(i'd like to hear it sometime...uh... yeah...)

[The Shadow of Death]

(yes it is. it would take me about 20-40 posts to lay it out accurately for you. I'll put it this way, i'm confusion wrapped in a hypothetical, supernatural, all powerfull fortune cookie...)

i turn to Lucian, "you cannot escape incompetent fool."

[DrNumaNuma]

((In real life, yeah, but this isn't. The golden rule of entertainment tsod: Show, don't tell))

[Shadow Realm: tsod, nemesis, Nwura, Lucian]

"Don't give me that crap; I can escape any time i want. i already had. Kalidor might be able to beat you, but you won't be able to beat this slippery little bastard."

[Nemesis]

(I'm confused Already X_X)

[Shadow Realm: tsod, nemesis, Nwura, Lucian]

"there always a use trying a hand at victory..." a voice echoed the realm as a crimson blade glides towards Lucian but it stops hovering in front of him...

[DrNumaNuma]

((you have to find him before you can attack him. He's invisible.))

[Shadow Realm: tsod, nemesis, Nwura, Lucian]

"I'm bored of this stalemate. If you have a better reason for me to be here, make it or I leave."

[The Shadow of Death]

(i'm off for the night, and yes i am aware of that 'rule' but it winds up back firing with tsod 70% of the time.)

[Nemesis]

(I don't remember seeing that detail...)

[Shadow Realm: tsod, nemesis, Nwura, Lucian]

"only reason I'm here is for the joy of battle and so far I'm not impressed..." The blade said hovering and spinning in mid-air...

[DrNumaNuma]

((Post 1019 said he was invisible and the missing bodies were for his clones, which are also invisible. You have to know where he is in order to attack him))

[Shadow Realm: tsod, nemesis, Nwura, Lucian]

"Neither am I. Even Doc is a better fighter than you, and he's the weakest of us three. Now, I bid you ado." In a collective flash, the Shadow realm lights up with blue before it becomes dark once again.

[DrNumaNuma]

((I needed to break the stalemate, so i had him leave. Nothing was being accomplished))

[Nemesis]

(I NEED TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO TYPE THE FIGHTING STYLE OF TELEKENTIC MAGNETISM... it's more than just throwing and tossing crimson colored blades...)

[x adams]

(Grand forge)

"Fuzz, do you want backup or are you planing on taking this guy one on one?" Adam said looking at fuzz but he took no stance

[Fuzz]

[Talvas, Grand Forge: Fuzz, Adam, Marcus, Kalidor]

"It wouldn't be fair too do it any other way, the best thing you can do is go back and tell the others that there's about to be a major disturbance in the planet. Please, do this for me, get them a place that's safe." Fuzz asks, never taking his eyes from Kalidor.

[x adams]

(Grand forge)

Adam nods then turns to marcus, "can you lock on to ricardo and take us to him, we'll only hinder fuzz if we stay" he said then glanced at fuzz, "Good luck"

[Fuzz]

[Talvas, Grand Forge: Fuzz, Adam, Marcus, Kalidor]

He thought to himself. 'Thank you for understanding friend...I hope you and the others have a good life when I'm gone.'

[The Shadow of Death]

Nwura followed the Lucians, being able to see them.

i turn to Nem, "here is a way out, you are like i am, so the coming event will not effect you much. the portal goes to Talvas." i then glide through the portal, landing outside of the grand forge.

i then send a telepathic message to Ric, ^something is going down, i need you to take Mira to Niquk. it is an underwater city that i have helped before, you will be safe there. i need you to supress the core...^

[Bloodfang]

[Mira's conscience]

"You win some you lose some. Well, I did my part time, time for me to go, see you back out in the other side." I give you a kiss and disappear.

[Outcropping]
I open my eyes, I see you hugging me. I smile and stay still.

I sleep much calmer now,just my ears twitching sometimes.I caress over your body and purr softly,enjoying the warmth of your body

[Poplatino44]

[Outcropping]
^Will do.^ I wrap my hands around Mira and we both disappear in a poof of black smoke.

[Niquk]
We appear at the underwater city. I lay Mira down and look around. I look at one of the residents and say, "we are friends of the shadow, we seek shelter." The resident nods and points to a empty house. "Thanks" I pick Mira up and go to the house. I lay Mira on the bed and I head outside. I find a good place and sit. I become enveloped in core energy and I start to free pressure from the planet.

[DrNumaNuma]

[Quaw Streets]

There was movements in the rubble of one of the collapsed buildings. A figure rose from the wood and iron, shaking off debris from itself. Reaching a hand up, it tore a chunk of metal from its flesh, spurting a gout of blood before slowing to a steady drip and then stopping. It then reached into the rubble and picked up a hat. "No need for sorrow, assassin. I died once already." Adrian smiled in his smooth European accent. "I can't die twice."

[Bloodfang]

[Niquk]
It takes me some time to awake but finally i get up.My head aches and i moan softly in pain.Afterwards i look around and then out of a window,watching Ricardo how he meditates

[DrNumaNuma]

[Talvas, Grand Forge: Fuzz, Adam, Marcus, Kalidor]

"Then let us begin." Kalidor, quick as a flash, grabbed the hilt and came at Fuzz from behind, swinging the claymore.

[DrNumaNuma]

[Talvas corridors]

After a flash, an army of Lucians appeared in the corridor before all heading north, towards the Grand Forge.

"Finally met someone you couldn't kill?"

"Not by lack of trying. I just don't have the muscle to do it. He couldn't kill me either, so that's gotta count for something."

"Nonetheless, the information you've gathered is invaluable. You never disappoint."

One of the Lucian's smile. "No, I don't."

[Fuzz]

[Talvas, Grand Forge: Fuzz, Adam, Marcus, Kalidor]

Fuzz raised a large obsidian odachi sword in one hand, laying it over horizontally above his back in a block as the crushing blow lands down, sinking them several feet into a small creator. After the blow he looks over his shoulder seemingly un-phased. "Death will bring about nothing but despair, I will not let you sink this planet down to nothing but a rotten stink hole for you "superior" beings, everyone has a right to live."

[DrNumaNuma]

[Talvas, Grand Forge: Fuzz, Adam, Marcus, Kalidor]

Kalidor took another swipe with his blade, obsidian energy trailing from it as he launched the energy and ran in its wake for a followup attack.



[Quaw Streets]

Adrian walked over to the ruins of another building. All here had various cuts, bruises or lacerations of some kind and were talking to a pale man pulled out of the rubble. He was a little dusty, but not worse for wear. "Can I speak to you?" Adrian says. Ghost blinks, but nods and leads them to an alley.

"So what are you exactly?" Adrian says. Ghost blinks, "Pardon?"

"You were on the bottom floor. I saw you. Everyone else is hurt to some degree, but you don't have a scratch on you, despite being buried under the building." Ghost takes a step back.

"Very clever man. I should ask the same after that explosion. You should be dead several times over."

"Heh, all I want to know is the man in the cloak."

Ghost drops his regular smile and instead has the look of a madman on him. "I deal in information, so if I tell you, you'll have to do something for me..."

[Fuzz]

[Talvas, Grand Forge: Fuzz, Adam, Marcus, Kalidor]

Fuzz stands his ground, level eyed and clearly pissed off to some extent, even though the fight has already started.

[DrNumaNuma]

[Talvas, Grand Forge: Fuzz, Adam, Marcus, Kalidor]

Kalidor kicks Fuzz in the stomach and heaves the claymore in a downward strike to crush him.



[Talvas, Inner Sanctum: Lucian]

The mini army ran down the corridors with all the speed they could muster. Whenever there was an intersection, a small group would break off and run down that corridor as well. As smooth as a well-oiled machine, the clones soon overtook the building before the final clone entered the Grand Forge. "Send in the clones." He grinned and drew his katar.



[Talvas Forest: Adrian]

Adrian stops his walk for a moment before starting into the sun for a moment. "What a lovely day." He says fondly. He starts walking again. "Too bad."

[Fuzz]

[Talvas, Grand Forge: Fuzz, Adam, Marcus, Kalidor]

Fuzz catches the kick and twists the foot setting him off balance and strikes his long sword down diagonally.

[DrNumaNuma]

[Talvas, Grand Forge: Fuzz, Adam, Marcus, Kalidor]

Kalidor catches the blade in a crystal gauntlet. Swinging his claymore, he belts Fuzz in his stomach again to crack some ribs.

[Nemesis]

[Shadow realm: Nem, Shadow]

The crimson blade lands on the ground as Nem reappears holding the blade, all 8 of the flying crimson blades come flying back at Nem

"Just set me on the right path for Combat Shadow..." Nem said eager for the battle ahead...

[The Shadow of Death]

[grand forge: Lucian army, Nwura]
blinding white light floods the grand forge as Nwura appears in her human form, "you will all die, or you can join us... your choice."
Nwura then addressed the spider absently, "i know you can hear me... you can rule with us, or be destroyed by us, you pathetic excuse of a so called 'god'!"

[Talvas forest: Fuzz, Kalidor, me]

black lightning struck the ground, leaving me in a small crater beside the fight. "interesting... the ancestral wanderer vs. Nara battlemaster..."

[DrNumaNuma]

[Talvas: Adrian]

"Has there been some strangers in town recently?" Adrian asks a cowering dwarf. He points to an enormous domed building. "Thanks,"

((Only 1 Lucian is in the Grand forge, the rest are ion other parts of the building. And Kalidor is in the forge, not the forest))))

[The Shadow of Death]

^fine^ my voice echos in Nem's mind as a portal opens to Doc(where the hell is he?).

[The Shadow of Death]

(@Doc: ahh, it was slightly confusing to me, but her voice carries...)

[DrNumaNuma]

[Talvas, Grand Forge: Kalidor, Nwura, Fuzz]

"Staining my soul and stinging my eyes
the red on my hands
won't wash away, wash away
no where to run from what I have done
I'm no longer, no longer
a Rose of May"

Lucian advances on Fuzz and ignores Nwura. "It's time to finish that fight."

((Doc's gone home, so to speak. So he's with the Spider in Nara. And I don't advise fighting the Spider on his home turf))

[The Shadow of Death]

a mirror shard flew through Lucian from behind, "ignoring me will be your downfall."

[DrNumaNuma]

[Talvas, Grand Forge: Lucian, Kalidor, Nwura, Fuzz]

"I'll ignore you all I want. You're not even worth fighting." And he advances on Fuzz, bleeding all the way.



[Talvas, Inner Sanctum: Adrian, Lucian]

"Cage of the kings
No need for wings
So turn them to stone
from roses to bone"

Sings a Lucian as he walked down a corridor.

"when you look at me
what do you see?
this costume I we--"

Lucian stops in his tracks. "You're good. I didn't even detect you." Adrian slowly walks around a corner. "You look like you need a Band-Aid." He say sarcastically.

Adrian gives a belly laugh. "Ha! Yeah, I did for a bit. I'll get to the point: I've come to kill you. Not YOU you, but just you."

"Eh, fair enough. I did try to kill you," He says simply, drawing his katar, and attacks.

[Fuzz]

[Talvas, Grand Forge: Lucian, Kalidor, Nwura, Fuzz]

Fuzz ducked under the giant blade, retching his sword from the gauntlet and sticking it in the ground. After the huge claymore stops moving he places a hand on it for balance and another on the ground, swinging his legs forward to plant a double kick to the face. He gave Lucien little notice.

"How the hell can you even do this? Have you no soul? No, even a creature without a soul could see the wrong in this."

[The Shadow of Death]

the mirror shard in the Lucian spiked outward, then exploded.

[Fuzz]

[Talvas, Grand Forge: Lucian, Kalidor, Nwura, Fuzz]

Tiny glass shards bounce off of a pressure field around Fuzz as he stares down Kalidor.

[The Shadow of Death]

i turn to Fuzz, "yeah, look at me, i havent had a soul for millenia..."

[DrNumaNuma]

[Talvas, Inner Sanctum: Adrian, Lucian]

Lucian got in low and charged at Adrian, who waited last minute to catch the katar and redirect the momentum, kneeing him in the side. Lucian aimed a chop at his side, exploding tag hidden in his hand, but Adrian saw through the attack and twisted his arm in a spin to throw him off balance. Adrian gave a quick roundhouse to his chest, knocking Lucian back a good five feet.

“Not bad. I’ve seen better, though.” He pitched a grenade, which finally made Adrian draw a sword to cut it in half and then disappeared from Lucian’s line of sight.

‘Shit.’ Lucian cursed. He really underestimated this guy. He whipped around, trying to locate the intruder.

“Behind,” He said from that direction. Lucian whipped around again just in time to block his sword with his katar. He was gone again.

‘Fuck,’ Lucian followed through the same steps again, blocking an attack from behind, but was not giving a chance to counter. ‘God damn it!’ In just a minute, this guy worked out his entire battle strategy. He backed off, getting away from Adrian to think a little. This first thing to come to mind was his weapon. Adrian had a very odd blade. It looked like it was made of black steel with small, blue cracks in the blade. The cracks appeared natural though, because they formed small ruins all along the blade.

“What happened to that bloodlust I saw before? What’s going through your mind right now?”

[DrNumaNuma]

[Talvas, Grand Forge: Lucian, tsod, nwura, kalidor, Fuzz]

"I only do as commanded," Kalidor states, unaffected by the kick. He swings the claymore, crushing through the stone at his feet. Using his sword as leverage, he flung the huge chunk of rock at Fuzz. he starts to advance on Fuzz, but stops and turns his head.

"We have an intruder,"

"I'm already on it," Says Lucian. Another Lucian ran to the clone. When he got to him, he broke the clone's neck, then flung him into the forge. Kalidor stared. "What are you doing?"

"Preparing an ace in the hole."

[Fuzz]

[Talvas, Grand Forge: Lucian, tsod, nwura, kalidor, Fuzz]

Fuzz interrupts the two speaking before him rudely. "Are you done yet?" The rock Kalidor had flung at him lay plastered against the wall on both sides of him, cleanly cut in half, and he was now walking calmly toward him, glaring fiercely at Kalidor.

[DrNumaNuma]

[Talvas, Grand Forge: Lucian, tsod, nwura, kalidor, Fuzz]

Kalidor advanced on Fuzz again and swiped with his claymore again, putting all his weight into it. Lucian, using his invisibility, flanked Fuzz with his katar and prepared to strike.

((OOC updated to include Kalidor and Lucian))

[Fuzz]

[Talvas, Grand Forge: Lucian, tsod, nwura, kalidor, Fuzz]

He leapt over the blade and flipped gracefully and landed behind Kalidor, corkscrewing against the ground to charge forward. While shooting in between his legs he attempts to hook his arms around them, using the forward momentum to try to make the giant tumble.

[DrNumaNuma]

[Talvas, Grand Forge: Lucian, tsod, nwura, kalidor, Fuzz]

Kalidor's immense size prevents him from losing his balance and presses a boot to Fuzz's chest to pin him against the ground. He starts to crush him under his weight while Lucian puts a foot on his sword hand to prevent him from swinging it.

[Fuzz]

[Talvas, Grand Forge: Lucian, tsod, nwura, kalidor, Fuzz]

Fuzz goes to raise his sword when he feels a foot pressing on the hand. "Ahhhhhhh! You bastards! Double teaming me..." He winces in mixed pain and effort then raises the other hand, but not to swing a sword. He snaps. Two shurikens that had been lodged into the left back leg of Kalidors armor explode.

((Learned a think or two from Lucien))

[Marcus McCloud]

(Grand forge)

Adam nods then turns to marcus, "can you lock on to ricardo and take us to him, we'll only hinder fuzz if we stay" he said then glanced at fuzz, "Good luck"

[Grand Forge; Fuzz, Adam, Nem, Kalidor]

Marcus looked down. "I'll do my best." (She) searched for him, looking out towards the sky. "I can feel him... he's..." (She) thrust her hand forward, opening a portal. "There! Come on!" (She) led them through, but stayed behind herself. "Fuzz!" (She) built up energy from the core and jumped between them and him. "I will kill you if you touch him!" Energy from the core shielded Fuzz.

(Can someone tell me where Ricardo is?)

[x adams]

((Some kinda underwater city methinks))

[DrNumaNuma]

((YeaH, THEY ARE))

[Talvas, Grand Forge: Lucian, tsod, nwura, kalidor, Fuzz]

The crystal armor shielded Kalidor from damage, showing only a blackened soot mark from the explosives. Lucian, now given his chance, takes a knife to Fuzz's arm, but only to draw blood. He pockets the knife and exits the room, Kalidor gazing at him. "What is he planning?"

[Marcus McCloud]

[Grand Forge; Marcus, Kalidor, Fuzz, tsod, Lucian, nwura]

"That's ENOUGH!!!" (She) sent out a blast of Zyarc energy that threw everyone prone but Fuzz and Shadow. "Stop! All of you! Why do you fight? It wastes souls, it ends bloodlines, it is useless!" (She) began to cry. "Thousands of years of war... endless squabbles over a few pounds of dirt! Why the fuck do you need to kill each other? Please enlighten me, or I will run enough energy through all of you to jump-start the fusion of Jupiter!" (She) started to build the energy necessary to do such a thing.

[x adams]

((Grand forge))

Adam teleported back to the forge again halfway through (her) talking "I have a funny feeling shes not bluffing." He muttered

[Marcus McCloud]

[Grand Forge; Marcus, Adam, tsod, Fuzz, Kalidor, Lucian, nwura]

The thin clouds began to darken and grow. Marcus' eyes glowed murderously as her personal shield formed. (She) was now very impatint with the world and was very angry over the loss of Marcus' soul. (She) spoke, Marcus' female and male tones making a perfect harmony of distaste and near psychotic hatred. "Tell me!"

[x adams]

(Grand forge)

"Stop!, is this really neccesary?" a voice called out. a neko dressed in a jet black trenchcoat appeared and walked up to marcus, "Do you want to kill everyone here for revenge?" he asked

[Fuzz]

[Talvas, Grand Forge: Lucian, tsod, nwura, kalidor, Fuzz]
((Dunno if you were ninja'd or not, but I was still "shielded" when you tried to stabbed me.))

Fuzz drug himself from the ground and stood up using his sword. "No....Stop...This is my fight, do not interferer. If anyone has the right to be the last hope of mortals....it's another mortal."

[DrNumaNuma]

[Talvas, inner Sanctum: Adrian Lucian]

'Shit,' He parried, blocked, parried, blocked against a relentless string of assaults from Adrian's blade. The attacks never stopped. Lucian was strong, but he wasn't built with the stamina for extended fights.

'Shit,' He swore as Adrian broke through his defense. 'Not enough time!'

Slice!

Adrian cut through his torso, blood freely pooling on the ground now. He turned, but stumbled. Something didn't feel right, besides the blood loss anyway. He looked at Adrian.

"Go ahead, I don't mind." Adrian said. Lucian smiled at tugged at his cloak.

BOOM!

[DrNumaNuma]

[Quaw streets: Ghost]

Ghost swiled around a wineglass with a blood red liquid inside. He took a slow draft of it, emptying the glass. "One down, one to go."

[The Shadow of Death]

(@marcus: i restored his soul along with her conscience....)

i watch Marcus, throwing both udødelig to him, "mix them with the core energy, it makes the energy output exponentally greater..."

(what happened to the Lucian Nwura exploded?)

[DrNumaNuma]

((Another Lucain clone came and killed what's left of him and threw him in the forge, then left.))

[The Shadow of Death]

(ah! that was that one!)

Nwura turned, then ran toward the explosian of the Lucian that attacked Adrian.
i glance, seeing her run, "hmm..."

[DrNumaNuma]

[[Inner Sanctum: Adrian]

"Heh, it packed a whalop, that's for sure." Adrian chuckled. He toyed with the black box in his hands before stuffing it into his coat. "Well, gotta get a move on." He stood up, sheathed his sword, and walked toward the forge.

[The Shadow of Death]

Nwura intercepted Adrian, "thats what i thought... what are you?" the mirror realm enveloped the two of them, rendering Adrians powers(if any) useless.

[DrNumaNuma]

[Mirror Realm: Adrain, Mwura]

"I'm the Journeyman," He said without hesitation. "That's all," He put his hands in his pockets, seemingly uncaring he's in a different place.

[The Shadow of Death]

"not who are you, what are you."

[DrNumaNuma]

[Mirror Realm: Adrian, Mwura]

"I'm a human. What does it look like? Now what are you?"

[DrNumaNuma]

[Talvas, Grand Forge: tsod, kalidor, Fuzz]

"Something's not right..." Worry entering Kalidro's voice for the first time. ''Lucian, what are you doing?'

[The Shadow of Death]

"you dont seem entirely human, and you arent mortal... but fair enough, i am The Shadow of Death's wife, and his complete opposite, The Queen of Purity and Light.

[DrNumaNuma]

[Mirror Realm: Adrian, Nwura]

"Can you bring me back? I have a job to do and I'd hate to go back on my word."

[The Shadow of Death]

"i need to know first, who's side are you on here? save the world, or destroy it?"

[DrNumaNuma]

[Mirror Realm: Adrian, Nwura]

"Well, it'd be awfully inconvenient if the planet is destroyed with me on it." He says.

[The Shadow of Death]

"answer the question straight or you will stay trapped here."

[DrNumaNuma]

[Mirror Realm: Adrian, Nwura]

"Stooping to threats already? Quite unladylike. Is your husband a woman and you're the man? I answer to no one that threatens my life." He draws a sword. "Are you my enemy then?"

[The Shadow of Death]

"that is to be determined by your answer... and you cannot harm me, so why even pull out a sword?"

[DrNumaNuma]

[Mirror realm: Adrian Nwura]

"I do not respond well to threats. I've had enough here. Old man! An exit please!"

A massive figure, over 20 feet tall, appears in the realm. Automatically, the black cloak encircling the figure starts to wrap around Adrian. With that, the figure vanishes, along with Adrian. "Death hasn't stopped me, neither will you. I side only with myself, so do not threaten me again!" his voice echoes as they disappear.

[The Shadow of Death]

(okay... for one, only two 'people' have acess in and out of the mirror realm: tsod, and Nwura. no others.)

[DrNumaNuma]

(It's not a person)

[The Shadow of Death]

(let me put it this way... ONLY THEY HAVE ACESS TO AND FROM IT!)

[DrNumaNuma]

((That's kind of cheating, though. Just teleport everyone who so much as looks at you funny there and the rp ends. There has to be some kind of escape, otherwise the game ends now))

[The Shadow of Death]

(well there is one built in, but it is hidden, and requires a key...)

[DrNumaNuma]

((Which no one has, knows where is or how to use))

[The Shadow of Death]

(that is fairly safe to assume...)

[Fuzz]

[Talvas, Grand Forge: tsod, kalidor, Fuzz]

"I'm not dead yet." Fuzz rushed Kalidor, swinging his odachi well over his head and bringing it down with all the force he could muster. "I don't need core energy, I don't need an udødelig, I don't need no fansy armor, or God given gift, or any of that dumb shit. You plan to wipe out everything I know...Everything I AM...I won't let you...I won't..." The blow struck something.

[Marcus McCloud]

[Grand Forge; Marcus, Fuzz, Adam, Tsod, Kalidor]

Marcus pulled more energy to augment Fuzz, but stopped. (She) collapsed prone and wept, feeling the ground. "Here? Here?" (She) stroked the ground lovingly. "I'm sorry. I'm so sorry for making you a third consciousness to Zyarc..." (She) sniffled, brushing the ground as if caressing it.

"Will you ever forgive me... Marcus?"

[The Shadow of Death]

(three?....)

[Nemesis]

(I have to stop skimping out on the action here)

Nem Flies through the portal in his blade form and lands on the other side transforming back to a human...

"Great now what?" he said looking around at his environment...

[DrNumaNuma]

((Where exactly did you go?))

[Talvas]

"Synchronization complete. Everything's ready. Keep clear of the forge; Kalidor's still there." A Lucian said to another. The other Lucian nods and runs off. "This is going to hurt."

"What are you up to?"

"Easy," Lucian gives his insane smile. "I'm going to kill everyone."

[Fuzz]

[Talvas forge]

Something isn't right here Fuzz thought, even while the fight was going on. Why did whoever that was just leave like that?

[DrNumaNuma]

[Talvas, Grand Forge: tsod, Kalidor, marcus, Fuzz]

Kalidor got back on his feet. "Shall we continue?" He said, only mildly irritated at Marcus's intervention.

[DrNumaNuma]

((So what'sNwura going to do?))

[x adams]

(Talvas)

Nathan casualy walked up to lucian, as if he was going to have a friendly chat, "You know, it's a little bit suspicious if a creepy guy like you runs away after one slice. good thing i decided to follow you then"

[DrNumaNuma]

[Talvas, Inner Sanctum: Lucian, Nathan]

"Does Lucian need to chock a bitch?" He said, but not as a serious threat.

[x adams]

(Talvas inner sanctum)

that would depend, over hearing the fact that your gonna kill everyone doesn't go down well with me" Nathan replied but his voice did not have a hint of hostility

[DrNumaNuma]

[Talvas, Inner Sanctum: Lucian, Nathan]

"Ha! I like ya kid," He pulls out a flask from his belt, pops the cap, and takes a draft form it. "Care for a drink?" He hands Nathan the flask.

[x adams]

(talvas inner sanctum)

"Sure," he takes the flask and takes a swig from it, handing it back "Care to tell what you're planning

[DrNumaNuma]

[Talvas, Inner Sanctum: Lucian, Nathan]

"Well, you pretty much heard it yourself." He takes another swig and passes it back to Nathan. "Haven't seen you around yet. Who are you?"

[x adams]

(talvas inner sanctum)

"Nathan" he drank from the flask again , "where i'm from is a long story, all you need to know is that i came here to stop this planet from dieing for the sake of my planet." he handed the flask back "Now i have a funny feeling that we have conflicting goals"

[DrNumaNuma]

[Talvas, Inner Sanctum: Lucian, Nathan]

"It's nothing personal; it's just my job." He holds up the empty flask. "God damn it. Be right back."

Flash! Flash!

He comes back with a jug of sake. "Cheers," and pours a glass for Nathan. "I don't expect my boss to want to completely fuck everything up, if that's any consolation. It's a perfectly good planet after all."

[x adams]

(Talvas inner sanctum)

Natan's eyes widened comicly at the sight of sake and his hand shot out the instant the glass was full, drinking from it he said, "I don't suppose you would stop your plan to kill all if i said please?"

[DrNumaNuma]

[Talvas, Inner Sanctum: Lucian, Nathan]

"Sorry. Not gonna happen," He pours two more drinks. "I am sorely tempted to wait and fight that wandering swordsman, though." He passes a glass to Nathan before draining his glass.

(gtg)

[x adams]

(Talvas inner sanctum)

"The swordsman seems a little busy, oh and on a darker note, i can't let you continue sorry" he said in a more grim tone

(KK see yah)

[Fuzz]

[Grand forge]

"Yes, let's. I don't know how you can do this...but..." He held up a hand and clenched it into a fist, a small creator formed after a burst of energy below him. "Let's finish this."

[Poplatino44]

[That under water place <<]
The glow fades from my body, I open my eyes and stand up. I stretch a bit and rub my bloodshot eyes. "Food, that's what I need." I go back indoors and sit on the bed, next to Mira. "Good god, almost 2 days straight. And I just started also."

[Bloodfang]

[underwater city]
I caress and massages Ricardos back softly "Don´t you think you should sleep a bit?"

[Marcus McCloud]

[Grand Forge; Marcus, Fuzz]

Marcus stood up. "I will stand with you, Fuzz." (She) formed an old style shield and armor out of Zyarc energy. "I can't stop you, but I can help you." (She) smiled. "After a few thousand years of observing the finest martial artists, I think I'm ready to use what I've learned." (She) looked at Fuzz. "You have my sword."

[DrNumaNuma]

[Talvas, Inner Sanctum: Lucian, Nathan]

"Well, if you're not piss drunk yet, I guess we should get started," He drinks straight from the jug. "Ahh, that's better." He gets up and pulls out a knife.

[DrNumaNuma]

[Talvas, Grand Forge: tsod, Kalidor, marcus, Fuzz]

"All your observances are useless if you cannot put them into practice." He got into an Iado defensive stance.

[x adams]

(talvas inner sanctum)

Nathan kicked away his flask, "Oh beleive me it takes more than that to get me drunk" he drew his two tantò, holding them so they pointed downwards

[The Shadow of Death]

(sorry for the delay)
[mirror realm: Nwura, Adrian]
"you can go for now, we will meet again..."
Nwura vanished.

[Talvas, Inner Sanctum: Lucian, Nathan, Nwura]

Nwura appeared behind Lucian, ignoring him. she continued on to see what he had planned.

[Talvas, Grand Forge: marcus, kalidor, Fuzzball, me]
i watch the fight, growing tired of it. "there are other things for me to do..." i disappear.

[treefolk territory outskirts: me]

"things must change here..." i set off on a deserted trail.

[DrNumaNuma]

[Talvas, Inner Sanctum: Adiran, Lucian, Nathan]

"Thank you, now there's work to be done." And after that, Adrian heads back to his main destination, the Grand Forge.



[Talvas, Grand Forge: tsod, Kalidor, marcus, Fuzz]

Kalidor broke stance and charged, launching a scatter of black energy at Marcus while bringing his entire weight on his sword on Fuzz.



[Talvas, Inner Sanctum: Adrian, Lucian, Nathan]

Seeing the pair ready to duel, Adrian took another route. Meanwhile, Lucian took one last swig from the jug. Suddenly he lit a flame in his hand and spat out the sake, creating a fireball aimed directly at Nathan.

[x adams]

((Did lucian go to the grand forge or is he waiting to duel?))

[DrNumaNuma]

((Adrian went to the grand forge. There are Lucian's waiting all over the forge, but this one is just dueling you for the hell of it))

[x adams]

(I see)

(Talvas inner sanctum)

Nathan swung his right tantó upwards, slicing the fireball in half then returned with a blast of core energy

[DrNumaNuma]

((He just blew a fireball at you. I'd say he went first))

[x adams]

(Bugger i missed that part of the post gonna edit my previous post)

[DrNumaNuma]

[Talvas, Inner Sanctum: Nathan, Lucian]

Lucian tossed a grenade in return to counter and the resulting explosion covered the corridor in a layer of smoke. Lucian started to sing again.

"My heart underneath
cries quietly
this part of me
I choose not to see.
What lives must I take
for fealty's sake?
How much blood must stain
this warrior's blade?"

The voice echoed in the narrow corridor, making it impossible to find his location. "Don't make this take too long; I got stuff to do."

((Man, ever since I came to Talvas, I've fucked it up beyond all repair.))

[x adams]

(talvas inner sanctum)

"You sing when your fighting?" nathan said as he walked through the smoke, trying to find him

(Really? what was your first clue? =P)

[DrNumaNuma]

[Talvas, Inner Sanctum: Lucian, Nathan]

"Of course. It was a song to remind the troops on my planet that there was always a price to pay for fealty. One paid in sacrifice and blood."

A blade was thrown from the smoke.

[x adams]

(inner sanctum)

"Intresting way of reminding then" moving his body slightly, nathan let the blade pass by before shooting a small blast of core energy from his fingertips at the dagger's entry point.

[DrNumaNuma]

[Talvas, Inner Sanctum: Lucian, Nathan]

"You're pretty fast." The blast knocked a knife out of his hand. He disappeared back into the smoke. There was the sound of something being dropped and a beeping noise. "Let's see how fast you are?"

BOOOOM!!!

A claymore exploded, sending ball bearings into the corridor.

[x adams]

(inner sanctum)

Nathan jumped to a wall then kicked off it, twirling in the air to a void the ball bearings that had been launched up. he then landed and deflected the rest with his tantós

[DrNumaNuma]

[Talvas, Inner Sanctum: Nathan, Lucian]

Lucian took advantage of Nathan being in the air and launched a fan of knives in the air.

[x adams]

(inner sanctum)

Nathan used energy to propel himself downwards at a faster rate, avoiding the knives. "Man you are a tricky one" he said as he landed

[DrNumaNuma]

[Talvas, Inner Sanctum: Lucian, Nathan]

A razorwire constricted nathan's feet, binding him in place. Lucian came through the smoke and punched Nathan in the face.

[x adams]

(inner sanctum)

Nathan cursed as the wire constricted around his feet, he would have to- his thought was cut off as lucian lunged through the smoke and training kicked in. He threw his left blade into the ground where the wire constricted, severing it. he caught lucian's fist in his left hand and slashed towards lucian's neck with his right tantó

[DrNumaNuma]

[Talvas, inner Sanctum: Nathan, Lucian]

Lucian did nothing as the blade clanged against metal. "Heh heh." He grabbed Nathan's sword hand and slammed a fist into the elbow.

[x adams]

(inner sanctum)

nathan gritted his teeth as lucian struck him but did not flinch, he let go of lucian's fist and quickly picked up the second tantó and lashed out with a kick to lucian's stomach

[DrNumaNuma]

[Talvas, Inner Sanctum: Nathan, Lucian]

Lucian pulled out a small sword and blocked the attack, countering with a roundhouse.

[DrNumaNuma]

((In case that earlier post didn't make sense, the blade deflected off his cybernetic implants and not a weapon))

[x adams]

(inner sanctum)

The hand lucian held glowed white then released point blank blast of core energy as nathan used his attacking leg to block the roundhouse

[DrNumaNuma]

[Talvas: Inner Sanctum: Nathan, Lucian]

"Son of a--" Lucian swears and drops some smoke bomb to cover the fallback as he nursed his wound.

[x adams]

(inner sanctum)

"Not this time" Nathan said and released a pulse of energy that blew away the surrounding smoke

[DrNumaNuma]

[Talvas, Inner Sanctum: Nathan, Lucian]

As the smoke cleared, the corridor was barren until an invisible hand thrust a dagger into nathan's arm.

[x adams]

(inner sanctum)

Nathan gasped sharply as the dagger rammed into his arm, but as lucians blade was about to make contact nathan buried his other blade into lucian's attacking arm

[DrNumaNuma]

[Talvas, Inner Sanctum: Lucian, Nathan]

"Heh heh," Lucian laughed again as the blade rebounded of metal again. He threw another blade into Nathan's other arm.

Lucian yanked off his cloak. Lucian was armed to the teeth with blades and explosives. Donned in his leather armor, he also had metal plating on his neck, upper torso and both arms. "It's getting a little cramped. This is better."

[x adams]

(inner sanctum)

"You thought i'd fall for the same trick twice?" Nathan said and the attacking tantó was covered in white hot energy that melted through lucian's arm and used the other blade to deflect lucian's thrown blade

[DrNumaNuma]

[Talvas, Inner Sanctum: Lucian, Nathan]

As Nathan made the swing, the throwing knife was turned into shrapnel with an exploding tag. He stabbed two more knife through Nathan's shirt into the wall. "Good night!" Fuses on the tags burned down as Lucian cloaked himself and ran away from the coming explosion.

(gtg)

[x adams]

(inner sanctum)

Nathan ducked under the two knives directed at his shirt and moved under the shrapnel then quickly ran down the tunnel to escape the explosion, "Damn it i lost him!" he muttered as he was a safe distance and brought up his trench coat to stop him being covered by the smoke

[Fuzz]

[Talvas, Grand Forge: tsod, Kalidor, marcus, Fuzz]

"...I'm not going to say it again, this is my fight." He began walking slowly forward, energy sparks began to jump from his body and sword. When he got about 15 feet from Kalidor, he teleported directly behind him, back to back, and turned the sword on...himself.

[x adams]

[talvas inner sanctum: Nathan, Lucian]

Nathan continued along the tunnel for 5 minutes but could not even see a hint of an end in sight. He muttered something to himself then pointed upwards, firing core energy at the roof to open a whole for him to get out. He jumped up and grabbed the edge of the whole with his left arm. Immediately he felt and shock of pain from his arm and cried out, bring his other arm up to hold on a pulled himself out, rolling on the ground clutching his left arm. He felt the area where the pain came from and noticed it was damp, he grimaced and removed the trench coat and his shirt. There was the wound lucian gave him, it was deep, from what nathan could see he was luck to even be able to move his arm. He rummaged around in his trench coat and pulled out a vial of light blue liquid. He quickly applied some of the liquid to the wound, which was still oozing blood, roaring in pain as he did so. The blood cloted on the wound and almost instantly formed a scab, he then tore his shirt's left sleeve and used it as a makeshift bandage on the wound. The liquid would mean that the wound should heal within an hour and the bandage helped apply pressure to it. He then got up, sensing a large amount of power and looked around, realizing that he was close to the grand forge and that, that was where the power came from, he set off towards it at a brisk pace

[Poplatino44]

[underwater city]
I caress and massages Ricardos back softly "Don´t you think you should sleep a bit?"
[Underwater city]
"Yes, I should. Mind making something to eat for me." I close my eyes and sit still, enjoying the massage.

[Marcus McCloud]

[Grand Forge; Fuzz, Marcus, Kalidor, tsod]

Marcus was about to follow against Fuzz's wishes when (she) saw Fuzz turn the blade on himself. "Fuzz, NO!" (She) started running toward him to stop him. The energy shrapnel that Kalidor shot was blocked by (her) shield, but it knocked (her) down. Time for (her) seemed to stop as (she) looked at him. (She) was feeling (her) first adrenaline rush over a friend. (She) was watching a friend kill himself and there was nothing (she) could do.

[x adams]

[Grand forge; Fuzz, Marcus, Kalidor, tsod, nathan]

Nathan arrived next to marcus, slowing down from a sprint and seeing fuzz prepare what looked like, stabbing himself "Shit am I to late!?"and buried his hand into his trenchcoat to try and find the healing liquid.

[Fuzz]

((Uh, he turned it on himself, never did anything else yet, quick edit would be nice. Do the math, if he's back to back with him, and the blades five feet long...you can see where this is going.))

[DrNumaNuma]

((I can see...if Kalidor didn't have body armor any))

[Talvas, Grand Forge: Fuzz, Kalidor, Marcus, Nathan]

Kalidor gave a look of disappointment at the tactic and roundhoused Fuzz into a wall. He undid the rope at his collar, revealing the full crystal body armor he had on.

[Marcus McCloud]

[Grand Forge; Fuzz, Adam, tsod, Kalidor]

Marcus thrust a blast toward Kalidor. It wasn't nearly enough to kill him, just knock him off balance. (She) looked at Adam, (her) voice shaky. "I-I don't know w-what to do..." (She) looked at Fuzz. "Why?" (She) sent another blast toward Kalidor. None of these blasts were meant to kill him. (She) just wanted him to stop hurting anyone else.

[x adams]

((adam and nathan are present))

(Grand forge)

adam moved up to marcus and pushed his arm down "Don't do anything more to hinder kalidor" He whispered "Fuzz was well aware of his death before he fought, he must fight this himself , or his honour will be ruined, please"

[Marcus McCloud]

[Grand Forge]

Marcus understood. (She) hated it, (she) despised it, (She) felt like being forced to feel the evil spirit take (her) again; but (she) understood it. (Her) hand lowered, (she) willed the energy not to flow into Kalidor. (She) wanted to rip Kalidor apart into atomic nuclei and scatter him across the different universes, but she held her arm back. (Her) eyes, glowing green, filled with anger. Honor, duty, loyalty... (she) understood those traits. (She) had seen the evolution of those traits for thousands of years... and (she) knew how important it was to give the knowledge of honor to the next generation. (She) even knew how important it was for that generation to accept those traits. All the lessons of morality from thousands of years of observing civilizations came to this one moment between two fighters. And (she) knew the who the victor would be...

[x adams]

((Grand forge))

adam's grip tightened slightly then he realeased it "Don't worry......the dead don't feel honour" he growled

[Marcus McCloud]

[Grand Forge]

Marcus found Adam's chest to weep on. "I wish I could take the honor of the duel." The energy in her coiled into a shield and sword. Her eyes spat hatred. "I could just..." The energy faltered and dissipated. (She) reclaimed Adam's chest. "Two days ago, I would have seen it as just another hero falling, but now..." (She) looked at Adam, sniffling. "He's my friend... your my friend... and still I'm USELESS!!" For the third time (she) found Adam's chest as a shield from the harsh world around her.

[x adams]

(GODDAMIT MARCUS GET A FEMALE BODY FOR HER!!!!!!!)

adam gently clasped (her) head in his hands and raised it so they looked eye to eye "Your not useless, you can't be useless you can open up wholes in dimensions at will, send your enemies flying with a gesture" his eyes teared up slightly then closed them and they were clear again ""Don't give up

[Poplatino44]

(So... Who other than me can use the core energy now?)

[x adams]

(Nathan my neko guy can i've posted him in the OOC)

[The Shadow of Death]

Nwura entered the area the Lucian had tampered with, looking around.

[treefolk territory: me]

as i walked down the path hatred filled my mind, black flames replacing the green ones that are usually my eyes. Black flames also engulf my being as black lightning arced from my body to trees, burning them as others shrivled and died beside the trail. the energy given off from my hatred was fatal to even be close to. ^you are just like the ones that killed Nwura, that made me make a pact with Death, that made

[The Shadow of Death]

me who i am!^ a psychic blast extended out as well as a blast of the razor sharp udødelig. my eyes were now flickering with black, red, and white.

[DrNumaNuma]

[Talvas, Grand Forge: Fuzz, Adam, tsod, Kalidor, Nathan]

"Honor? I've lived by it. I will die by it. Do not dare insult my honor parasite," He points his claymore at Marcus. "Or you will be the next notch in my blade."

"Now, now, is that anyway to treat a lady?" A voice comes form the darkness of one of the corridors. Footsteps can be heard now, getting louder and louder.

[The Shadow of Death]

(what does Nwura see Doc?)

[The Shadow of Death]

[treefolk territory: me] i see movement ahead, probably the first of the treefolk. my hatred mixes with anger and pain, the flames around me change to match my eyes as a thousand small orbs of black lightning form, shooting off in every direction. anything the orbs touch explode. as the orbs fly into the mecropolis treefolk start exploding and screams echo as they try helplessly to run. madness sets in my eyes, my need for revenge unsatiable as i shoot the black lightning at the saplings first. terrible

[The Shadow of Death]

moans rise up, calling for help that will fall at my feet. flames spread, engulfing everything.

[DrNumaNuma]

((I told you, Doc went back to Nara, but he'll be coming back soon))

((I had Doc sit out for a bit in order to confuse less people because Kalidor and Lucian were still around))

[The Shadow of Death]

(i asked what Nwura saw, shes with the trap Lucian set)

[DrNumaNuma]

((Oh, I thought you were referring to the char. Assuming that she can detect invisibility, Lucian clones would just be standing around doing nothing))

[The Shadow of Death]

(ahh, and invisability does not hinder her. thank you.)

[Talvas, Inner Sactum: Nwura, Lucian army]

Nwura looked at the lot, then had an idea, after assuming they were up to no good.
a molten mirror like substance flooded the floor from her. as the substance reached the first Lucian it engulfed him, trapping him in a fitted mirror prison.

[DrNumaNuma]

[Talvas, Inner Sactum: Nwura, Lucian, Anastasia]

"I was pure once..." whispered a voice in the corridors. "My... son... watched... me... die."

[DrNumaNuma]

[Talvas, Grand Forge: Fuzz, Adam, tsod, Kalidor, Nathan]

Adrian stepped from the shadows, drew his crystal sword and pointed it at the group. "You have something I need."

[The Shadow of Death]

"yet it was so long ago..." Nwura stated, peering into one of the Lucian's eyes, looking to see if they had a soul.

[DrNumaNuma]

((I think you missed something in that last post tsod))

[Talvas, Inner Sanctum: Lucian, Nwura, Anastasia]

Lucian glared back, only fierce determination in his eyes. He thrust a blade into Nwura's chest with one hand and the hand cannon in the other, blow her into the wall. He vanished around the corner.

"Fought... for... righteousness. Betrayed... my... order." The voice whispered.

[The Shadow of Death]

(i didnt miss the talking, thats what Nwura responded to.)

Nwura was unphased by the attacks and watched as another Lucian was engulfed as she spoke to Anastasia, "then why dont you join us? we could give you back your world, your life, or even create you a new one. why do you stay with... it..."

[DrNumaNuma]

[Talvas, Inner Sanctum: Lucian, Nwura, Anastasia]

Anastasia is suddenly in front of Nwura. "He is my son. My brainchild. My creation." She spoke in a normal voice, yet her eyes are still a deep gold.

[The Shadow of Death]

Nwura is not surprised, looking into the yellow eyes, "we can give you anything you want, all you have to do in return is leave this planet alone." Nwura reached into Ana's mind, following the spider's influence and gaining access to its mind, ^we have created worlds, galaxies, even whole planes of existance, tell me, what do you desire?" Nwura asked hypnotically.

[DrNumaNuma]

[Talvas, Inner Sanctum: Lucian, Nwura, Anastasia]

"That's not going to work. I'm right here. Ana's original mind is gone; this body and all the memories she had are all that's left. It's just me in charge of her now. As to what I want, want I want is entropy. All I want is to silence these people."

(gtg)

[The Shadow of Death]

"why do you seek to silence them? to silence all of them would be suicide for you... and your planet..."

(i got to go as well, talk at you tomorrow.)

[Fuzz]

[Grand Forge]

Fuzz planted the sword in the ground, allowing himself to be kicked away, but placing a seal on Kalidor's armor as well. He turned sharply on Marcus and Adam. "Leave now! I'm not going to ask you again, leave before it's to late, you've misread my intentions!" Though his body had stopped emitting the strange energy, his sword still pulsed and sparked in the ground.

[x adams]

[Grand forge]

Adam finaly got fuzz's intentions and widened his eyes "Shit! how did I not notice?" and without another word grabbed marcus and pulled (her) away.

Nathan still stood watching, but from a greater distance

[Bloodfang]

[Underwater city]
"Yes, I should. Mind making something to eat for me." I close my eyes and sit still, enjoying the massage.

"Ok honey...i can look if i find something else than fish around here.Otherwise...i hope you like fish" I laugh softly and take my dagger and bow and step out of the house.Seeing that there is nothing else expect of water around i sight a bit and walk out of the city to go fishing

[The Shadow of Death]

(BF, there is a market place... and they know i sent you two, so they will give you anything because of their debt to me.)

[Marcus McCloud]

[Grand Forge---->Underwater City]

Marcus looked at Fuzz, burning the image of him in her mind. (She) yelled to him, "I will remember you!" (She) ignored the voice from the darkness. (She) turned to Adam and gave him a bear hug. The world around them dimmed, then changed instantly. In a moment, (she) was sitting down. (She) hated being a woman in a man's body. (She) looked up at Adam. "I know two people that can give me a female body; Shadow, and my big brother. Ricardo should be around here somewhere." (She) looked down and cried. "Fuzz had to... s-sacrifice himself? Why?!?" (She) was good at changing subjects normally, but now... (she) was locked on the fact that (she) let her friend go. (She) also wanted a body, but (she) wanted her friend back.

[x adams]

(underwater city)

"this is a war for the fate of a planet", he stood up, "something had to happen eventualy" he said and looked at (her) if your a conciousness of zyarc, can you talk to marcus

(Grand forge)

Nathan glanced at the disappearring pair then walked closer to fuzz and stuck out his right palm, "Here you need all the energy you need" from his hand a great ball of core energy shot from his hand and sped towards fuzz

[Marcus McCloud]

[Underwater City]

(She) nodded and felt the ground. Energy flowed to her hand. "Just give me a minute." (Her) body shuddered, (she) pulled a bolt of energy threw her and (she) closed (her) eyes. Marcus curled up into a little ball. Marcus spoke again. "Next time, I'll keep my body off limits..." He looked at Adam. "Hey, how are you doing? Listen, I need to talk to Fuzz-" He stopped. "Oh..."

[x adams]

(Underwater city)

"Marcus! good to hear you what the hell is your life like? "

[Marcus McCloud]

[Underground City]

Marcus blinked. "Well, I was seeing hundreds of things at once and I had a hard time staying focused for more than- did she kiss you again? Er, anyway I was floating and flowing at the same ti- god, I'm hungry, did she feed- oh darn, I forgot about Fuzz is he OK? Oh! I have to tell Ricardo to make her a new body!" He ran off calling for Ricardo.

[x adams]

(Underwater city)

Adam laughed as marcus set off and ran to catch up with him, "Fuzz is fighting kalidor, you and i both know how it will end" he said grimly

[Fuzz]

[Grand forge]

The energy ball shot toward him dissipated against the field of growing energy, so Fuzz never even knew it was coming toward him, good or not. This was his fight, and he was putting everything he had into it, nothing more, nothing less.

[DrNumaNuma]

[Talvas, Grand Forge: Nathan, Kalidor, Adrian]

Adrian held a blade in front of Fuzz. "I'm afraid I can't let you continue."

[x adams]

[Talvas, Grand Forge: Nathan, Kalidor, Adrian, fuzz]

Nathan appeared in front of adrian at blistering speed and struck out with a kick to adrian's stomach with the same level of speed, if it connected it would send him flying "Sorry you'll just have to let him continue"

[DrNumaNuma]

[Talvas, Grand Forge: Nathan, Kalidor, Fuzz, Adrian]

Adrian sidestepped and caught Nathan's leg in his trench-coat. "Ah ah ah, that's not nice you presumptuous little warrior." He pivoted on his legs and smashed Nathan into a wall. "Now, where were we?"

[x adams]

(Grand forge)

Nathan sent out a blast of energy and propeled himself back avoiding adrian's counter "Who said I was a nice guy?"

[DrNumaNuma]

[Talvas, Grand Forge: Nathan, Kalidor, Fuzz, Adrian]

"Go away, I have no business with you," And he withdrew the sword back into his coat.

[Marcus McCloud]

[Underwater City]

As Marcus traveled, he was fighting the sister voice for control. "I need to find Ricar- No, Fuzz is in troub- Stop! You know there is nothing you can do! But if he does lose, we can extract revenge. NO! I will not let my friend die jus- SHUT UP!" Marcus stopped. "God! I should have kept you in Zyarc instead of letting you commandeer my body into dangerous situations!" The fight continued as the trekked through the city.

[Talvas, Grand Forge: Nathan, Kalidor, Fuzz, Adrian]

"Leave the sordsman be and I will leave you" he replied

[DrNumaNuma]

[Talvas, Grand Forge: Nathan, Kalidor, Fuzz, Adrian]

"That would be going back on my word, and I cannot do that."

[Fuzz]

[Talvas, Grand Forge: Nathan, Kalidor, Fuzz, Adrian]

"Both of you get out now!" He turned on Kalidor. "And you!....I've never been the perfect person. In fact most of the people I've been involved with have been betrayed in some way...and my dojo.." He stood up and glared at him, leveling a lethal gaze. "But you're a monster. Everything we have ever worked for! All the things achieved for the sake of bettering our society, and you want to take that all of way. I won't let you destroy the light we have worked so hard to achieve." The sword began to glow, and the sparks intensified.

[DrNumaNuma]

[Talvas, Grand Forge: Nathan, Kalidor, Fuzz, Adrian]

"Ah ah ah, I said I can't allow that. " Adrian gets in front of Fuzz and closes his eyes, whispering. "You have something I need."

[Fuzz]

[Talvas, Grand Forge: Nathan, Kalidor, Fuzz, Adrian]

"I don't care what you need, no one else needs to die. You're not going to get a single drop of my blood without getting blown to hell." He turned on Nathan. "GO!"

[DrNumaNuma]

[Talvas, Grand Forge: Nathan, Kalidor, Fuzz, Adrian]

Adrian looked surprised. "You? I never said i wanted you." He turns to Kalidor. "Just you."

[x adams]

[Talvas, Grand Forge: Nathan, Kalidor, Fuzz, Adrian]

"I can move far faster than you realize" he said "Do it now don't hesitate"

[Fuzz]

[Talvas, Grand Forge: Nathan, Kalidor, Fuzz, Adrian]

He turned his lethal gaze on Nathen. "Leave now, I don't need...Go."

[x adams]

[Talvas, Grand Forge: Nathan, Kalidor, Fuzz, Adrian]

"Swordsman do it now stop holding back I am far older than you realize" his voice had taken on a subtle mystical quality

[Fuzz]

[Talvas, Grand Forge: Nathan, Kalidor, Fuzz, Adrian]

He looked from Nathen, back to Adrian, then to Nathen and back at Adrian, as if to tell them both to leave...or for one to take the other with them.

[DrNumaNuma]

[Talvas, Grand Forge: Nathan, Kalidor, Fuzz, Adrian]

"Sorry, I walked here. Get in my way if you want. After I get want I want, you guys can start the kicking and screaming." He turns immediately and draws his sword, meeting Kalidor's bloodmist shield. HE turned on his heels, trying to edge an attack under his guard from behind, but that failed with a block form his claymore.

[DrNumaNuma]

((wait, teleportation isn't in your power description))

[Fuzz]

[Talvas, Grand Forge: Nathan, Kalidor, Fuzz, Adrian]

"Get out now! It's gonna explode!" The sword flashed and cracked, and the room seemed to grow slightly brighter.

[x adams]

bwahaha! I CHEAT! ok it wasn't an actual teleport but pure speed he's drawing on a lot of core energy)

[DrNumaNuma]

[Talvas, Grand Forge: Nathan, Kalidor, Fuzz, Adrian]

"You incinerate him and everyone in the world dies!" Adrian yells over the sound of battle. He aims a roundhouse and slash a the same tie, both of which are blocked before Kalidor goes on the counter attack.

[DrNumaNuma]

((Back in about6 or 7 hours))

[Fuzz]

[Talvas, Grand Forge: Nathan, Kalidor, Fuzz, Adrian]

"What!? How! This persons trying to kill everyone!" Fuzz looked utterly confused and the sword grew more unstable, the energy already out of control.

[DrNumaNuma]

[Talvas, Grand Forge: Nathan, Kalidor, Fuzz, Adrian]

"He's got a device that will cause a rupture in space/time if it's damaged too badly." He draws his other sword and blocks a strike before meeting his shield again.

[Fuzz]

[Talvas, Grand Forge: Nathan, Kalidor, Fuzz, Adrian]

"...I don't care...What if it doesn't stop here? You won't be satisfied with one destroyed planet." The floor began to break apart, and the walls began to crumple and shatter.

[underwater city]
I come back after nearly an half hour with a bundle of fish on my back.I walk into the house and place the bundle on a nearby table."This is a realy good place to go fishing" I laugh softly and get out of my wet clothes.

[x adams]

(Grand forge)

Nathan's eyes shot open as he heard adrian and whipped round to fuzz "Stop this now!," he shouted at him over the roaring energy "I cannot let this planet be destroyed"

[Fuzz]

[Talvas, Grand Forge: Nathan, Kalidor, Fuzz, Adrian]

He grinned a sadistic grin. "Would you rather they destroy everyone on it, then move on to the next planet, and the one after that? This has to stop now...I CANNOT LET THIS SENSELESS KILLING GO ON ANY LONGER!"

[x adams]

(Grand forge)

I would let any other world burn to kill a monster like him, but i cannot let this world die and if you think otherwise then i will stop it for you!"

[Underwater city]
"MMM... fish, lets get cooking." I set up the table and fire up the small stove in the corner. He felt a sudden shudder in the core, then a large disruption in the planet. "What the hell is going on?" I concentrate, see Fuzz at the grand forge and feel the massive amount of energy built up. "OHH. SHIT!!!! Be back hon, stay here." I disappear in a cloud of black smoke, appearing next to Nathan. "Whats he doing?"

[x adams]

(Grand forge)

Nathan turned to ric "He plans to kill the creature in a powerfull blow that will end his life, I would let him continue but the creature has a device that, if destroyed, would caused a tear in reality effectivley killing zyarc"

[Bloodfang]

I mew scared when the disruption hits the planet.I hide me under a table and shiver slightly.After a while i get out of my hide and check if anything is broken "Good...it seems like there are just some plates which are broken" I hang my wet clothes near the stoven and get the first fish ready to get fried or cooked.

[Poplatino44]

[Grand Forge] "You might wanna leave the area, this can get ugly." I look over at Fuzz and yell, "Dont do it, there must be another way!"

[x adams]

[Grand forge]

A smirk creeped across nathan's face, "ugly is normal for me" he replied

[The Shadow of Death]

[treefolk territory: me]
as i walk down the path, trees dieing as i walked past, i feel a pulse of energy.
^Adrian, if it blows, i can rip it into another realm were it will do no harm, after all time is already broken there, and space already bends upon itself, i can send it there.^

[DrNumaNuma]

((Took onger than i thought to get a computer. Will be harder to get at it in the next few days. Natch.))

[Talvas, Grand Forge: Fuzz, Adrian, Kalidor, Nathan, Marcus]

'Whoever you are, tha's not going to work. There can be no doors, meaning the realm must be isolated.' Adrian lunged with both blades, both being blocked again. He swiped up Kalidor's body with one, which Kalidor evaded with one deft motion. 'I have to find it first anyway,'

"I think it's about time." Lucian stepped into the room. All of them. In total, there were about a dozen left. One stepped forward. "It just appears I can't kill any of you. I just might have finally met my match. Blood is blossoming around his cloak near his midsection and was leaking an eery green energy. All of the clones had similar wounds.

"Well, this is going to hurt," Adrian commented.

"Only for a moment," Lucian smirked, his eyes emitting energy along with his wound.

'Whoever you are, hurry up!'

"Lucian, this is madness!"

"I've always wanted to go out with a big bang!" The time drive ruptured and energy burst form the clones with the force of an exploding sun.

[x adams]

[Talvas, Grand Forge: Fuzz, Adrian, Kalidor, Nathan, Marcus]

Nathan's eyes jumped open as he sensed a massive displacement of energy, "No it, it can't" he turned to ric "We have to seal it off, that or get out of hear....NOW!"

[Fuzz]

[Talvas, Grand Forge: Fuzz, Adrian, Kalidor, Nathan, Marcus]

(Before explosion) "Stop being so God dammed selfish!" Fuzz snarled. "You only care about this planet and the one it's connected too because of personal ties!" He was in a rage, all the while the energy stored in the sword grew more unstable. "What about all the other people! And there planets, and there family's! Don't you care about anyone but your selfs? How are you any better then them? I've never done anything selflessly...not really, there was always an exterior motive. But now, I have nothing to live for but my people, and for them I must die. Not the ones on this planet, for it might not last much longer...but the entire universe, so that these monsters can finally be put to rest! So it's for the sake of all of them that I do this! FOR THE MORTALS!" The sword erupted into an engulfing light that was blindingly bright, then exploded.

[Poplatino44]

[Grand forge]
I grabed Marcus and Nathan and teleported out.

[Underwater city]
We appeared in the same house Mira was in. "Let's just hope that device was a bluff.

[x adams]

[Underwater city]

"Damn him!", nathan cursed then calmed and breathed out "it better be a bluff, or the people of two worlds will be wiped out"

[Bloodfang]

[underwater city]
When i hear your voice i turn around.When i notice that you have two other guys with you i blush darkly,hoping that they haven´t seen me now "Damn honey....could you please knock next time"

[Fuzz]
