It was a few weeks since the first attack, and Exitium was itching to remove the pests for good. Mujihi had given into the coward's way of following 'family' rather than following power, and Exitium was just as ready to remove her for it. He'd lost his Human slave farm, but no matter. All was being replaced now. Aisu and Kasai had proved themselves to be the strongest of Exitium's Dracomancers, taking a place by the King's side. Chrysos, she was a good as a meat shield now. Exitium planned for her to be removed, leaving it to the boys to handle, knowing they'd do their father proud eventually. She could be useful once more, as Exitium planned for his next move. It was a tedious night, a lot of things could have gone wrong, but with his army of Dracomancers and strong pure Demons, Exitium managed to round the city of Baransu like cattle. Each and every Human in sight was plucked out of their homes, by force mostly, and chased towards Baransu tower. It was a case of go inside, or die on the spot, and fortunately, the majority followed the threat, soon filling the Baransu Tower with useless sacks of meat. Now Exitium had his bait, a whole tower full of it. Sending one of his children, Exitium sent a message to the 'heroic' Mun clan. Either they came to fight Exitium, right here and now, with every soul that was present during the fight on his castle present, or Exitium would turn this entire tower to ash, with everyone inside it. Obviously, with that much death hanging over what was obviously a trap, the clan was forced to comply with the mad Demon King's request. Exitium stood in front of the tower, Aisu and Kasai by his sides, Chrysos and her other lesser Dracomancer siblings flying a circle around the tower, smirking as gradually, the Mun clan made their presence.
Exitium counted the heads, smiling more towards those few who interested Exitium most. Finally, he held his hands out. "Welcome! It's is delightful to see you all here once again... I wonder, just how many will be alive this time? I can already see a few missing heads." Exitium mused, before looking up to the tower. "Doesn't it look wonderful? Humans, finally fulfilling their purpose as pathetic bait for us to toy with. I'm sure they're all so relived to see that you all came to save them." Exitium stated, glancing to the Mun clan, before raising a hand to the tower. Exitium did it painfully slow enough so that everyone received the shock of what he was doing, before it truly happened. In an instant, the foundation of the Tower was ruptured, and the ground shook as the first, empty layer of the tower collapsed, beginning it's hugely collateral destruction. Exitium marvelled at the cries of terror forming from inside the tower, just waiting for the clan to look desperately for a solution. Exitium pondered over what these weak souls could possibly do, specifically, one especially weak soul amongst them. How would he handle this?

Akvan knew he'd be facing this person again, but he never thought it would be so soon, and under such conditions. Exitium demanded the entire clan to be present, but secretly, all the King cared for was for Akvan to be there, as well as a select few he wanted to get rid of as well. Sighing, Akvan followed behind the group as they stormed the dead streets of Baransu, keeping eye contact with a few. Gensho, his sisters, sometimes glancing towards Chester. He felt sick for everything he'd said. How he didn't deserve to be loved, or have anyone care about him. All Akvan wanted was that, he wanted those from his old life back, to be here in his new one. Gensho had proven that to him, and that letter. Akvan knew that maybe one day, he'd end up failing, but for one to fail, they needed to try first. And Akvan would do just that, try, try honestly for once to do something that worked. Perhaps he'd spend the rest of his time here alone, without that forgiveness he claimed he didn't want, but the Sun child didn't care. If that was part of his new fate, then so be it. And right now, Akvan needed to clear his mind, try and bring Flood back out. For some reason, Akvan's Eteru form hadn't worked since Exitium's strike during the first fight. Whether that red mist did something to Akvan, or the Sun child was simply being emotionally pulled back from using his powerful form, he didn't know. But Akvan did know, that to beat Exitium, and Shinda, he needed power that right now, Akvan didn't possess. He needed to find that power again, and soon.
Drawing further back, only just in Exitium's field of view, Akvan looked at the Demon King. He was unable to see this person as only Exitium now, somewhere in that body, Shinda was laying dormant, just waiting for that precious moment to attack. There was so much about this that screamed trap, and Akvan dreaded to think that this clan he'd seemingly belonged to for so long, might soon become target practise for Exitium. All of this started from Akvan's decision during the first fight to try and act alone, and now he was letting the entire clan pay for it. Or it should have been just the clan, until Exitium raised his blood-thirsty hand towards the tower. Akvan forgot everything for a moment, other than the mass of souls, good and innocent souls, inside that death trap of a tower right now. And it was by what felt like instinct, that Akvan raised his own hands up, summoning his dormant Light Shadow magic once more. The magic struggled as Akvan summoned it, as if it didn't want to be used. Akvan felt something ripple up his arms, like the erupting force of the magic was crushing the insides of his arms as it was forced out. Eventually, the white mist shot like a torrent of water, going right past Exitium and around the tower. It covered the huge building in a thin layer of white, so thin it was only partially visible. But thin as it was, the magic was incredibly sturdy, freezing the collapse of the Tower completely, and holding it up before the stone framework collapsed inside. Everything went silent, apart from the screaming Akvan heard in his head. Using an unstable magic, and at such a large quantity when it was still supposed to be dormant, was beyond pain. Akvan's hands were forced as far apart as they could go, rips beginning to appear between his fingers as the skin broke apart. But he couldn't let up, not now. Akvan didn't care what this overuse of magic did to him, he only knew that he couldn't let the tower full of people die, because of something Akvan was responsible for. He couldn't look around very well, being literally frozen to the spot, but Akvan noticed some looks of awe and surprise as others were just as frozen in shock. Akvan breathed heavily, "G-go! Everyone! T-t-the people... inside! G-g-go save them!" Akvan hoped, against all of his other hopes these past few weeks, that everyone would listen, and abandon Akvan now to rescue those in the tower. Akvan didn't know how long he'd last until his entire body was ripped to shreds, and didn't want to risk leaving anyone innocent in that crumbling tower when he was.

Chester returned to the Clan at the wrong time in honesty. After the talk with Akvan, Chester run to be alone for a bit, using her old home as a hiding place, the memories could have been avoided, but at least she could keep as many people as possible safe. But her return brought questions, ones she didn't want to answer, and luckily, or unluckily, she was 'saved' by the message of Exitium. Rushing to the scene alongside the others, but remaining as far from Akvan as she could get, Chester felt something drop in her stomach... She knew things wouldn't end well, plus with Exitium at the reign, it was a no brainer. Jumping as the tower began to collapse, even she could feel for the poor souls within, until the tower froze in mid air, and heard Akvan shout to the crowd... It didn't take a genius to work out what was going on... And she knew this was all a trap... Watching the clan members jump into action, Chester, against her better judgement, pushed through the crowd towards Akvan... She may not forgive him for what he did... But she knew he would be the one to get personal treatment from Exitium... Many still cared for Akvan, so she couldn't let him suffer. Drawing her bow and arrow as she got close, Chester made sure to keep Akvan as safe as she could... Which was saying something, as she wasn't the best fighter out there. "Sometimes you can be a bigger idiot then I thought... A heroic idiot, but an idiot all the same..."

Post by Zuura on Mar 31, 2015 21:35:15 GMT
Zuura liked fighting, and blood, and anything violent. But... he wasn't looking forward to this fight. To many lives at risk, innocent ones holding blood that Zuura didn't want spilling everywhere. He, for once, was glum, as he lead his clan towards the centre piece of Baransu. The pride and joy of the city, the Tower that held so many dreams. Right now, all it held in it's strong walls was nightmares. Swallowing, Zuura glared towards Exitium, hoping the man would let these innocents go, now that he had Zuura's clan to play with. The clan leader didn't enjoy being toyed with. First by his best friend, now by the hated Demon King. Zuura was so fed up of all this, he just wanted things to go back to normal, no more worries or deaths. He wanted to enjoy Friday nights again, enjoy chatting and spending time with clan mates. A Zuura from the past would relish to fight so many times in a row, but today's seasoned Zuura just wanted his family safe. Zuura was just as taken back by the move made by Exitium, watching hopelessly as the massive tower began to crumble on it's hefty weight, screams coming from inside. But, he froze, along with everyone else, as the tower suddenly stopped moving. Zuura glanced around as he heard Flood... Akvan command the group. Whilst the pain coming from that voice should have made Zuura feel sympathy, all the clan leader did was smile. What a way to prove himself, typical Akvan to go all out about it. Glancing around to his clan, Zuura began sprinting towards the tower's entrance, spiking any enemy in the throat with a feather, or having a crow peak into their eyes. Zuura made sure his three crows remained outside, keeping the second in command safe, at least from the small fry Demons. What Exitium had planned, Zuura could only hope Akvan understood, and was willing to face it. Zuura held one last look with his friend, before entering the tower. Dust was everywhere, and many of the rooms were pitch black, but it didn't stop Zuura. Every person he met, he passed on instructions to follow guides out of the building, the clan in general leading the innocent to the back of the tower where it was safer. Zuura knew this would take a long time, and even with the tower frozen, they were still on a time limit.

Exitium cackled as he watched the tower being to fall, hearing voices of despair on either side. The clan, because they'd been played, and had to watch so many innocents die. Those in the tower, because they were forced to realise what kind of purpose they had. Bait, nothing more. But then it all stopped, and even Exitium was a bit surprised over that power. He recognised the white mist that had made a rag-doll out of Exitium in the fight in Paludem, and his eyes turned to glare at Akvan. Though, Exitium's frustration wasn't very long. He'd planned for Akvan to do something to make himself weak, but the King only wished the boy had waited a bit. But that image, Exitium knew it was perfect. Weak, shaking, bleeding... everything Exitium wanted to see in the one enemy he was supposed to 'fear'. Exitium just let the clan run by, knowing all they did was add to the future body count as they flowed into the tower in attempt to rescue everyone. Exitium chuckled, glancing to his Dracomancer sons, and nodding to them. He didn't need them right now, taking up land space, best leave them to do what they needed to do, until Exitium requested help. Exitium lurked around the outside of fights going on, thirsty eyes not leaving Akvan, and his rather amusing choice of 'protector'. It was simply perfect that Chester of all would stay so close to Exitium's target, perhaps she herself could adapt into a prop for Exitium's upcoming plan. Finding a nice opening, Exitium slivered around others, finally coming face to face with his target, with only the weak Demon girl between them. Though, she was easily brought out of the equation, for now. Exitium dodged a few feeble attempts to keep him at bay, sending spikes of red mist to impale anyone too close. For Chester, however, Exitium's developed his magic into a left arm, and copied Flood's techniques in the last fight, using this magic-created limb to wrap around and force Chester on the ground. That was far too easy. And perhaps Akvan knew it would be so, there was fear mixed with pain and concentration on that pathetic face of his. Exitium smirked, "Do you know.... it's been so long since I was last here... in fact, the last time I came to Baransu tower, was to murder your brother." Exitium stated, edging closer. "It was such a delightful evening, though I'm sure Chester can vouch for that, can't you, my Demon daughter?" Exitium mused, tightening the grip around the 'Demon' woman. Exitium hummed, beginning to move to Akvan's side, before slyly setting down Oblivia magic over the man's feet, making sure even in his current state, there would be no way Akvan could even move. Plus, for added bonus, the red mist was partially corrosive, so should probably relieve Akvan of his lower legs soon enough. Exitium chuckled quietly, stopping to grin towards his toy. "You know... I've just remembered a deal that I made with the late Onrah, a deal concerning you, my dear boy." Exitium stated, before pacing back in front of Akvan. He then focused on Chester for a moment, smirking as she continuously struggled against him. Show time, and her role was about to emerge. Exitium loosened the Oblivia magic's grip around her, only to weave around to her back, and sink in to control the tragic girl. Leaving the Oblivia magic to relay instructions that Exitium had mentally sent to Chester, he returned his malicious smirk to Akvan. "I promised him, that whatever I'd done to him... as soon as I got the chance, I would do the same to you... and I can't just break a promise like that, can I?" With that, Exitium went quiet, although remained with a grin on his face, as he waited for his little show to begin.

Chester knew she would be no match for Exitium, but considering no one else was around at this moment to help out, she would have to do. Sending a few attacks Exitium's way, weak, considering Chester didn't have the energy to fight after the last few days, she gritted her teeth when she was knocked to the ground. Why was it that every time she was at Baransu tower, she was the one in charge of 'protecting' the other... First Onrah, and now Akvan... They should have known she failed the first time. Glaring up to Exitium, how Chester wished she could spit in his face right now, she felt her confidence shatter at the mention of Onrah, and the verbal confirmation on how she failed to protect him as well. "Your a sick bastard..." Squeezing her eyes shut in pain, Chester knew he had something planned, but for the life of her she couldn't work out what, struggling against the magic, Chester knew it was of no use, and yet she still tried, for what reason, she didn't know.. But suddenly her mind went foggy, and darkness took over. Chester was no longer in control of her body, mind blocked to what was happening. But her mind told her to lift out the small dagger she began to keep as back up in her boots, taking slow, mindless steps towards Akvan, Chester lifted the arm holding the blade, just to pierce it right through Akvan's stomach... But oh no, it didn't stop there, the blade kept going, the squelch of blood filling the ears, and the warmth from the body. Chester's arm went along with it, until the blade, and her hand, breathed in the air from the other side of his body, letting droplets of blood drip to the floor for a few agonising moments. Slowly pulling her arm out, Chester walked back a few steps. Mind still blocked, her screaming internally for escape, while she went and stood next to Exitium.

It was hard to focus on anything else, when Akvan needed to concentrate everything into keeping the magic flowing around the tower. His breathing was heavy, and already every breath felt so thick and useless. He should have prepared for this, spent the last few weeks training his magic to work again, rather than sulking around being depressed and hopeless. But, as Akvan had already decided, this magic would not falter, not until his entire body had been consumed. Because no one innocent was going to die on Akvan's behalf, and he was very adamant about that. Watching everyone go, Zuura leading the movement, Akvan wanted to smile, if he could. Zuura knew what was going on, and what Akvan knew would probably happen to him for doing this. This, even to the point of Akvan stopping the tower, was set up and planned by Exitium. Because he wanted a situation in which Akvan was alone, and without defence again. A few stayed, but Akvan couldn't shout out for them to leave him again, only glance around as they fought to keep him safe. Gensho remained around, though Akvan only saw the blur of his brother moving quickly through crowds of Demons. Akvan wasn't unsettled by his brothers help, knowing even a half Kyuban like Gensho was better off fighting. But what did upset Akvan, and caused a small ripple in his magic, was Chester deciding to help as well. Akvan's weighted eyes widened when she came closer. His head shook slowly, barely even noticeable. "C-chester no! H-h-help the others! For.... for once... j-just f-forget about me!" Akvan ordered, as loud as his broken voice could go, eyes staring towards Chester, begging her to get as far away as she could. He needed her to realise that, as much as it felt good to know Chester was willing to protect him, she'd be doing the opposite by being close. For Exitium already had eyes set on Akvan, and anyone in his way would be removed. And Akvan didn't want to be forced to see that.
There were some shouts in the crowd, and Akvan's breath shuddered when he saw that blood red mist again. Exitium was crawling closer and closer. Akvan's head shook, body shivering and hands deforming completely. He knew he was probably done for now, and Akvan was alright with that, so long as it was only him. But now, Chester was involved, the Sun child couldn't just stand and watch. But he also couldn't move. The Demon King began his usual talk. Words that he knew burned into others, but seemed to purr like it was sweetness to say. Akvan felt sick, being forced to think of how Onrah looked, that night. What this... monster did to him. And that was before Exitium had his mind mixed with Shinda's. Akvan couldn't imagine what two malicious minds combined would thing of. Akvan never wanted this man near Chester again, not since the last fight, so it broke him to see how easily Exitium made both of them into nothing but toys. Akvan's head was fixed mostly forwards, so he could only feel the burning sensation around his feet. It started softly, before it felt like needles were embedded into his legs, slowly tearing skin apart. Akvan couldn't focus on that, and had to keep pain at bay, or else let the tower fall. He swallowed a few breaths, trying not to let Exitium get to him. Until the tower was cleared, Akvan couldn't let anything distract him. And soon... that became a very hard thing to do. Avoiding the pain in his legs, Akvan never caught Chester moving, nor what had happened to her. But then, something punched Akvan in his back, forcing his breath out violently. His stomach rippled in pain, which very soon exploded in a chain of uncontrollable, thundering strikes of pain after pain. He couldn't breath, let alone scream out and release the boiled up suffering. Akvan coughed out so much blood, his head dropping forwards. The ground shook, as Akvan's magic began deteriorating rapidly, and his dying eyes gazed down at what had gone through his stomach. Or rather, who had gone through. Seeing the hand, wielding a small knife, Akvan thought his blood-deprived mind was going mad, but it was confirmed as the arm retracted from his chest. Akvan coughed more, unable to lift his head, or even collapse, as his legs were moulded to the ground. But his eyes could move just enough to see a blur of Exitium, and... Chester at his side. Warm blood dropped onto the ground, dripping from everywhere on Akvan now. Every breath whistled through Akvan, empty and useless. His arms shook as the bones inside were crushed from magic, and Akvan's stomach was nothing but a bubble of pain. This... this was what Onrah had to put up with, as he fought Exitium to keep everyone safe. The ground stopped shaking, and the corroding line of magic became strong again. That's right... Onrah never gave in, he had this pain once, and still managed to be a hero. Akvan continued to breath, trying to find strength from it to remain awake. "O...Onrah..." Came an almost silent voice from Akvan. "G-Gensho... Chester... N-Nanari... Zuura... Hada... L-Labari... Mo..." Akvan's voice slurred, eyes closed as he focused on everyone. All those who believed in him, who cared for him, keeping this weak, dying little hero from falling unconscious and losing control of the tower.

Exitium's smile never disappeared as he watched his mind-controlled weapon slowly climb to her feet, and shuffle behind Akvan. Chester always wanted to help, back with Onrah, and now with Akvan. Before, perhaps Exitium had been a bit excited to attack her as well. This time, he made sure the little toy got to play as well, got to help Exitium commit the act. And it was a wonderful act indeed. That blood, the look of shock and pain on Akvan's face, the noises, all of it was a beautiful symphony to Exitium's ears. He cackled as Akvan's poor little body was broken apart, by Chester of all people. Her emotionless face was priceless, and Exitium could only imagine what the inside of her sweet little mind must be like now. The screams from the tower began to increase once more as Akvan lost the will to use his magic, and Exitium's smile increased ear to ear. So much death, so many pestering golden strings cut at last. Tonight really was a gift. Exitium smirked as Chester joined by his side, simply adoring how Oblivia magic could even bend the will of one to kill someone that they cared so much for. The King took a small break from the fun. He had another card to play, and letting Akvan bleed a bit wouldn't hurt. Holding his hand high, Exitium shot an explosion high into the air, signalling the entrance of an old friend. After doing so, Exitium frowned, noticing that the streams of magic from Akvan were getting brighter again. In fact, they looked stronger than ever. He turned and moved closer to the standing corpse, listening to the weak man's mutters. Exitium scoffed, "Still holding on? Just like that scum Onrah... and where did it get him?" Exitium said, spinning around Akvan, before grasping his hair in his hand. Pulling so that Akvan's limp head was lifted, Exitium's smile was returned. "So you think believing in your friends will keep you alive... we'll see how long that lasts, when one of them slowly kills you." Exitium spat, before glaring to Chester. He commanded her, with that already blood-stained knife, to attack again. Cut off an arm or two, before going for dear Akvan's throat. At the same time, the skies ruptured with a massive cry. A five piece roar, as the monster of Exitium's creation took its place in the fight once more. Exitium smirked to his five-headed creation, leaving it to damage some of the tower Akvan was working so hard to keep from falling. His eyes returned to watching Chester, ready to watch more of this show.

Post by Kakushin on Apr 1, 2015 22:58:03 GMT
Note: Ningen, Hane and Ikiru are NPCs.
It wasn't an easy day. Or one Kaku was likely to forget any time soon. First hearing the news of what Exitium had planned for the Mun Clan, then going to Aura to look for help, then... that, then having Ningen go over a plan, and now to flying towards Baransu above the clouds on a ship packed full of Angels. Kakushin stared off the side, hoping that everyone was holding up. Rurushu knew the Angel wouldn't be there to begin with, going to look for backup in Aura instead of simply going into the fight unprepared. And although he hated leaving Ru and the others alone for this fight, Kakushin was made clearly aware why he'd made a good choice. Ikiru sat, legs off the side of the ship, humming to himself as if ignorant to everything going on. The usual, really. Other Angels were all on edge, looking for a last minute sword practise or collectively wondering what kind of dangers they'd face. Hane hovered behind Kaku, annoying the Angel to no end, though Kakushin knew it was much more annoying for Hane himself than it would ever be for Kakushin. Smiling over that fact, Kaku almost didn't notice Ningen approaching. The boy seemed flustered and overworked, but still stopped to bow his head first before speaking. "We're in position overhead now, ready to go when you are, y-your majesty." Kakushin chuckled a little, unable to hear that royal address without wanting to laugh in disbelief. Patting Ningen's shoulder, Kakushin made tracks for a different part of the ship, obviously with Hane on his heels. As he walked, any Angel whose eyes caught Kaku stopped to bow their heads, almost convincing Kakushin that he really was dreaming right now.
Finally stopping, Kakushin looked up at what was helping him get down to Sohul. It looked half the size of the ship, and probably weighed just as much. A massive gun made of silver and gold plating, and made big enough to fit inside. Kaku glanced at the handwritten markings on the side of the canon, and scoffed at what Ningen christened the gun as. "'King canon'? Of all names to give it Ningen?" Kaku commented, and Ningen tried to stop his lips from rising to a smile. "I wasn't given long to name her, your majesty, so excuse the use of a literal title." Ningen replied. All jokes aside, they needed to act fast. Ningen had geared this ship up for everything. Long-distance communications, magic radars, everything. Everyone knew what was going on down in Baransu, and things were soon brought into reality as time went against them. Seeing the giant Dragon descend not far away from the ship also brought things up to speed. Kakushin was soon suited up in protective clothing, along with a more resistant Hane, and settled down into the canon. Of all things Ningen could have decided as ammunition for his beloved canon, no one would have pointed at a person. Let alone the very newly announced King. But there wasn't time to argue over matters, all Kaku knew was that the canon had enough momentum to pretty much teleport him miles in a few seconds, and was a necessary risk right now. Holding his breath, and listening to Ningen spout on and on about acceleration and safeness in an earpiece, Kaku felt the canon charge up. Ningen really was a miracle inventor, and his description was on point on what it would feel like. From a millisecond of having the wind knocked out of his system, Kaku opened his eyes to find himself moving very fast towards the ground, not a few hundred meters from the five headed Dragon below. He only had a moment to react, but it was all that was needed to draw his sword and slice right through the target. Kaku looked like a flash of light moving through the air, going right through three of the five Dragon heads, before winding around the tower to come back around with a good bit of speed remaining from the canon's fire. This was like Light Speed on a much larger scale, and only those who knew Light Speed as a magic could pull off being fired at that speed. So Kakushin had been a perfect choice. Making a wide turn around the tower, Kakushin quickly found his target, and opened his wings to slow down. At the speed, Kakushin wings almost burnt up, but it was enough to slow him down before the Angel could get low enough to the ground to plant his feet. Once grounded, Kaku still didn't stop, not until he'd run right up to Exitium and forced him away from the others. All after the canon happened in a few seconds, and there would be no way Exitium could have seen it coming. Finally taking a breath again, Kakushin blinked a few times, throwing Exitium away into a building. It took a little while to get over the sudden change in speed, but with Exitium buried and surprised, Kaku had a few moments. Stretching around a bit, Kakushin braced himself when Exitium began to finally realise what the hell just happened. "Well, well... This brings back some memories, doesn't it?" Kaku called towards the Demon's annoyed face. "Last time we fought, it was Peace against Destruction right?" Kaku readied his sword, glowing a blinding white now that Kakushin was holding a lot more power. "This time... it's more like, King against King."

Despite the shock on what has come from his meeting with Mo, Ru knew he had to stay fully focused on the fight ahead. He was not in the clear for things until they won, and win they would, if the Mun Clan and Angels had anything to do with it... Which they did. It had been a jam packed few days, the revelation of Akvan or Flood, the aftermath of it all, and combining that with everything else... It was amazing how anyone remained focused. Rushing through the sky, Ru made sure he was able to reach the others in time... Almost being knocked from the air... He assumed it was Kaku, with the speed he was going. Touching ground, Ru ran straight over to Chester, hoping to knock he back into her senses, he was needed in other places as well. "Chester, hey, little sis... Wake up, we need you..." Spending a few seconds, Ru gave a quick glance to Akvan, knowing the other would be fine as Gensho was on his way... Giving the other responsibility over the two. Ru was quick to rush after Kaku and Exitium, jumping through the building, he caught the last words from Kaku. Smirking slightly, Ru went and stood next to his other half. "Make that a fight with King and True King vs. Fake King..." It was foreign words on his tongue, Ru still trying to comprehend that Mo had asked him to take over as Demon King... Ru being an Ex-Outlaw and all... But knowing that now that Kaku must have been asked nearly the same thing but for the Angels made things more understood... Or so Ru believed.

Post by Gensho Night on Apr 4, 2015 21:05:23 GMT
Gensho was just beginning to get over his anger. Akvan had been forgiven, and Gensho had been ever so grateful for these few weeks. Whilst he'd shut out most others, Akvan seemed to allow his brother to remain close, and sometimes didn't seem to want Gensho to leave the mountain. The wounds were still fresh from his twin's sudden revival, but Gensho had gotten used to them, letting the scars heal on their own. But just when things looked to be getting better, Gensho's precious and beloved Human city was held captured. He didn't own Baransu, but had spent so long in the city, making amends with the government there, that Gensho felt a duty to the most advanced Human settlement. The frustration of every poor soul there being at Exitium mercy, made Gensho mad. And no one should get a Kyuban mad.
Then there was the explosion, the collapse of the tower, and then a miracle. The amount of magic surging through the air above everyone's head was more than imaginable, and all came from one small little ex-Demon. Gensho smiled to Akvan, although couldn't break the concern in his expression. Akvan looked in pain and exhaustion already, even as he convinced others to go and save those in the tower. Gensho stayed, a similar instinct to Chester. Demons of Exitium's ruling would be attacking right now. They needed to make sure they didn't make it to Akvan, no matter what. After a few minutes of fighting, in which Gensho had to put down far too many souls, including a few Dracomancers, he turned his head just as the ground shook. The tower began cracking and tumbling once more, and Gensho's eyes witnessed why. He felt frozen, just staring at the sight of Chester stabbing right through Gensho's brother's stomach, only wishing it was his imagination. Gensho remained frozen as Chester, under Exitium's control, retreated to the bastard kings side, and Akvan stood there like he was already dead. Gensho tried getting close, after seeing, even from his distance, the pool of red rapidly growing around his brother. But he struggled behind the swarms of Demon underlings, cutting down more poor souls to make a gap to get through. Gensho rushed to Akvan's side as Exitium was ripped from him, placing his arms to support Akvan, knowing on his weak legs it must be killing just to continue standing, especially as the weird red magic ate away at his legs. "Hold on brother, it'll only be a little long... then you can rest." Gensho muttered. He was torn between helping Akvan, to going to make sure Chester was alright after Ru went off to fight. But with this situation, Gensho knew his sister would forgive the Demon for staying put right now. Gensho took a deep breath, eyes pinned Akvan and his condition. "Just... please hold on."

Note: Slight NPC of Kaku, because Jazzy is too lazy for two posts.
Exitium didn't know what happened, all he heard was what sounded like thunder, and then the Dragon monster exploded in blood as three heads were sliced apart. Before the Demon King could even blink, a bright light grabbed his front, and hauled the Demon away from his toys. Exitium's body was tossed with a crazy force, and Exitium was forced to retracted the Oblivia magic on Chester to stop himself from being ripped apart by the force of it all. Getting over the surprise, Exitium quickly stood up, glaring into the face of this foolish attacker. And it was the one person Exitium wanted to fight, but also wanted to avoid fighting. How long it had been that Exitium wanted to get revenge of losing his arm to this Angel. And for so long, Kakushin Guardian of Peace hadn't received the brunt of Exitium's pestering attacks. Because the Demon King wanted to do so himself, but never saw a chance to attack an Angel that never entered Dranar. Now, Exitium had the chance, but even with the two now down on a good battlefield, Exitium had another thing to worry about. His expression was generally surprised, assuming perhaps Kakushin was simply bluffing. There was no way this dumb Angel was the King of his race. But, anyone here could feel the pure light energy coming from Kakushin, something only a royal Angel could possess. And before that could even process, Rurushu the traitorous murderer, also claimed rights to being King. That made Exitium laugh, and almost forget that he was fighting against two now. "You? A King? The rights to rule Demons is mine, monster. There is no way some experiment like you can take my crown." Exitium claimed. He then looked to the Angel. "And you. Maybe you are King of Angels, all the more reason to kill you now." Exitium growled, before smirking. "You being here, and acting all high and mighty changes nothing. That tower will soon fall, thanks to the dying boy over there. I still have many Demons ready to die for me, and although you wounded him, my Dragon is still ready to fight. You have nothing but yourself." Exitium chuckled as he said it, realising he'd been concerned about this situation for nothing.
But Kakushin seemed equally amused, laughing himself before replying. "Actually you're wrong, I do have something..." Kakushin stated, pointing his sword to the sky. "I have a Hane." And then there was another thunderous noise from the sky, and the two remaining Dragon heads on Exitium's five headed monster were suddenly sliced off by a fast moving beam of light. The movement seemed identical to Kakushin's from earlier, including landing like the Angel King had. As it finally slowed down, a person appeared from the light, and a smaller Angel stopped next to Kakushin. The Angel King smirked, leaning down on the small Angel, Hane's head. He pointed to the sky again, "Oh, and he brought some friends." Kakushin added. And then the entire sky was full of white wings and life. The downpour of Angels seemed never ending, for a race on such low numbers. Exitium watched as the Angels quickly engaged combat with Demons, or began carrying people out of the tower from windows to get them down quicker. Everything the Demon King thought he had over these fools was being taken away fast. Glaring at the new King, and the fool who assumed he had the right to be King, Exitium summoned a left arm from his Oblivia magic, pouncing forwards to attack both.

Note: Rex has a quick NPC appearance. XD xx
Nanari supposed it was a bad time to go on a supply run for the Mun Clan when Exitium decided to take hostage over all of Baransu's citizens. But it wasn't all a loss as Nanari spent her time calming everyone down, with the help of Burea and Tulus, though that job was made much harder once the tower began to shake and collapse... Exitium's doing no doubt... And Nanari knew exactly what happened the second it stopped and everyone began to flood in to help... Akvan was going to kill himself at this rate. Taking a breath, Nanari helped to organise for the children and their mothers to be helped first, alongside the sick and wounded... They needed the most help first, and many seemed to agree despite the panic. Nodding slightly to those she knew, Nanari made sure everyone was safe, even as the tower slowly began shaking again... It was frightening for her for an entirely different reason, not knowing what exactly what was going on with her friends and family... But it would have to do. Taking a breath, Nanari couldn't help the smile as Angels began flooding in along side the Mun Clan, speeding up the escape process tenfold. She recognised several faces, including Rex and Ikiru, giving a slight wave to them both as she helped with the citizens. It was still a slow progress, but eventually, with the help of the Angels, then tower thinned out until it was just the Clan and Angels left. Many wounded citizen wise, but none killed luckily. Looking over to Rex, Nanari gave a smile before running over... "I need you to get me to a friend of mine own below..." "Hold tight then... Its a blood bath out there..." Letting Rex grab hold of her tight, Nanari was quick to navigate him to Akvan... The sight almost making her want to vomit in surprise, before she took a breath and went into medical mode. "I need whatever medical things you can find... Bandages, needle and thread, anything... And make sure I get some alcohol for the wound... I need something to stop the bleeding for now though..." Looking at Akvan, hoping to at least keep him with us for longer, Nanari slightly, un-painfully slapped him round the face to get his attention. "You need to stay with us, okay? I know magic use and all these wounds will be difficult... But stay with us okay? Gensho, make sure he doesn't fall asleep..."

Akvan didn't know how long he'd stood there, repeating everyone's names to himself to make sure he didn't lose consciousness. But then so many things happened around the barely there Sun Child. Exitium forced his head up, but soon after, Exitium was torn completely from Akvan's side, sent off by a very strong presence. Akvan was near collapsing point anyway, just about ready to have his eroded legs snap off and fall back, but then someone else appeared, forcing the Sun child to remain up. Akvan couldn't move his head, nor see anything anymore anyway, and so it took the soft voice to know it was Gensho by his side. It warmed Akvan's weak heart, and at least meant all he had to do now was hold out with his magic, since Gensho was keeping the foolish brother from falling. Gensho kept talking in Akvan's ear, describing to him what was going on, the Angels helping the tower, Exitium being attacked by Kakushin and Rurushu. Chester was still out, but at least the Oblivia was gone from her system now. It was a few more painful and bloody minutes before Clan members and the like started leaving the tower to signify that it was clear. Even as Gensho said Akvan could stop, the Sun child refused to let up on the magic, not until they could be completely sure everyone was out and safely away. Akvan didn't know if he'd have survived even this long without Gensho, clearly Gensho was very adamant about losing his only brother again. And he was helping in every way. Trying to comfort Akvan through waves of pain and dizziness, supporting the limp Sun child. Everything. Akvan's head was down, far too heavy to try and lift, and his arms were forced to remain up by the magic output. So he didn't see anyone else approach, until he heard a calm voice give out instructions. Akvan knew that voice, in fact he was usually on the receiving end of Nanari's medical instructions, back when he helped her in her practise. Feeling something hit his face, Akvan managed somehow to at least get his eyes moving again, barely lifting his head to check the tower himself. It was for only a split second, but Akvan tried to see if any souls remained in the tower. Seeing nothing, Akvan could finally release his magic. Stopping such a strong force caused a small ripple of force in front of Akvan. It would have been enough to knock the dying man down, if Gensho hadn't been ready to support. Letting his arms fall dead, even in falling, there were a few definite and gruesome squelching sounds as the mess of smashed bones and muscle in Akvan's hands moved. It would be best not to look or focus on Akvan's hands right now, especially now that his body felt like shutting down with the magic finally stopping. Even more weight was put on Gensho as something below seemed to snap. It seemed as though the Oblivia magic had finally eaten all the way through Akvan's legs, separating the lower legs into two parts. With his feet no longer attached, Akvan couldn't support himself even if he wanted to. Gensho struggled a little, looking to Nanari for a go-ahead to slowly lie Akvan down. After a few moments of painful moving, Akvan was resting against Gensho on the ground so that his back wasn't completely touching it, since that would infect the stomach wound more. It must have been hard to keep Akvan awake, the Sun child was trying himself not to sleep, but Gensho was left with very few options to try and distract his brother. Holding Akvan's hand was out of the question, and slapping seized to work as Akvan's body got used to them. So all Gensho could do was talk. And talk he did, about random things and stories over the past years. He occasionally stopped to make sure Akvan didn't give into pain as Nanari got to work. It was equally hard to keep someone awake who didn't see the point in remaining so. Akvan had held on with the only desire to keep the tower from falling with people inside. Now that everyone was safe, he felt his hold on consciousness slipping, and wasn't determined to stop it falling. Coming into this knowing that he'd probably end up dead, Akvan didn't know if he had the spirit to remain awake. But despite the very tempting death, Akvan held on. Because there was something... someone to live for. More than just one person, actually. Gensho was trying to stop himself from panicking, and also trying to keep Akvan with him. To put his brother through another death, Akvan didn't know if he'd be able to accept doing the right thing. If Akvan's life was worth anything, it was worth preserving if only for those around him. Akvan tried glancing to Chester, who was in the Angels care close by. "D-d-don't... te...ll... C-c-che...ster." Akvan tried saying. With his open wound it probably came out as just wheezes, but Gensho seemed to get it. He nodded slowly, smiling sympathetically. "Don't worry brother, I won't tell her what happened... or how it happened." Akvan was able to rest assured by that, eyes closing despite the struggles. Akvan couldn't stop sleep, but he didn't give into complete unconsciousness, making sure he at least tried to keep breathing, even if just doing that alone took up all of his energy.

Nanari smiled to whoever it was that got her what was needed, and then set her mind fully into healing Akvan. All her attention was needed to help, as the oblivia magic made it harder for her to use her magic, its effects still trying to eat at her friend. Taking a breath, Nanari hovered her hand over the wound in his stomach, healing his insides, it cost Nanari much magic energy, but watching it heal over enough so that Akvan wouldn't die from blood loss was enough for now. Setting to work with hands on medical help. Nanari took the small bottle of alcohol before looking to Akvan, "This is going to sting... A lot, just hold on though, okay?" uncapping the bottle, Nanari looked to Gensho in a silent plea to make sure Akvan didn't move, she poured a good quarter of the bottle straight onto the open wound, before pressing down on it with a alcohol soaked cloth. Waiting a few moments, Nanari removed the cloth and sterilised the needle found, before she began to stick up the wound. Akvan wouldn't be able to move much once she was finished. But he wouldn't be facing death anytime soon from this. She was a little curious as to what had actually happened, but with Akvan's words and the blood stains on Chester's arm said it all, and Nanari knew Exitium must of had some 'sweet fun', but she was against Akvan's decision, no matter how much she could see why he wanted it kept secret. "Akvan... I understand and respect the decision not to tell her... But she would want to know, god forbid if she found out you kept something like this from her... But its not my place to tell, so I wont... Just know that though..." Sending him a small smile, Nanari used the last of her magic energy to heal any other wounds he had, before finally looking back to both him and Gensho. "You can sleep now... And Gensho, I know the battle isn't over, and that you would want to check on Chester, but I need you to assist Tulus and Burea in getting Akvan back to mine... He needs to get away from the battle ground..."
