Dark Age Legends

[Dude Man]

Abodahon, then swung his body forward dodging Zeros' blurring sword. He then clenched his fists and empowered his gauntlets, yet he sensed somebody going towards him. He spotted Ven thrusting his white energy empowered sword down at him, he would have phased, yet he was charging an attack and he didn't want to interfere with it, he then moved forward, yet he didn't totally dodge the attack, the blade struck him on the left side of his back, causing a deep cut, his blood splattered on the ground, causing steam to rise as it landed. He growled in pain, him being a demon the cut began to heal. He then flapped his wings and back flipped further landing several yards away from the group. He then fired two giant lasers at Ven and Zeros'.

----

Valos began to fly faster and faster as he moved towards the location of the two cities. He keeps a blank expression on his face. Abodahon must have been brought back from Melkoth, those two have been doing deals with each other for quite some time. If he was with Melkoth and if Melkoth is the one attacking the cities, then he may even have to turn against his former master or his current one.

[D. Ein]

//DM, could you update Ein and Marshal one last time please? I read the last two pages, and I still do not know where we are at the moment\\

[Trent]

//We'll assume that Zion stopped right before hitting Zeros'. The way I posted before can still imply that he took the punch.

Zion noticed that his opponent was busy firing lasers. Zion looked to Xenai, who just happenedt to look over to him. Zion nodded toward one of the gauntlets busy firing lasers. //Even if the lasers aren't being fired from the gauntlets, Abodahon is still occupied with his attack.

Zion and Xenai phased away from the lasers, and right up next to one of the gauntlets. They slashed at it in perfect unison, with all the power that they could muster directly after a teleportation. They would connect simultaneously.

Tsu's aura turned black, flared, and then disappeared. "Damnation!!!" Several rays of darkness shot up from the ground, taking out several mages with each ray. He chose randomly where each ray would rise from, but he made sure not to hit Duilin.

[Dude Man]

//Ein and Marshal are nearby the same spot as Duilin and Tsu, but they are just flying and watching everything. \\

Duilin nodded at Tsu. "Thanks friend!" He then shook his leg flinging the scared little imp off. "Come on pipsqueak, we got work to do!" He then flue into the air, flying past a few magic blasts. The imp then followed. Duilin began to create a large fireball; wile Rink blasted smaller ones at the mages.

----

Marshal looked down at Duilin, Tsu and Rink fighting the mages, as he rode on Ein's moth. "Perhaps we should wait until they take out Melkoth's mages, it'll save us the time of killing them ourselves, then we make our strike at the half demon." Marshal suggested. "Or we can help fight the mages and then backstab. What do you say Ein?" He asked.

//I'll wait until Zeros' and Xorlak's reply before I respond to Xenia and Zion's attack. \\

[Kahn]

"This I can do."

Hyperion swooped down towards Retangrad, shaking the ground as he landed. This caught the attention of nearby soldiers who began to fire. Hyperion began to flap his wings, creating gusts of wind that sent the soldiers blue orbs back towards them.

[Zeros']

Zeros' turned, and phased, making the lazer that was heading past him speed past where he was, roaring, and making the ground it hit burn, and trees become cinders.

He reappearing in front of Ven, and backhanded the giant lazer, effectively sending it up, and into the sky. His hand was burned, but, he'd had worse burns. It would be stinging for awhile, but, it was a mear annoyance, more than a serious problem.

He nodded at Ven, and looked back towards Abodahon. He noticed the aura trail the lazer had left, and smirked. He pulled back his hand, and kept himself calm. Then, with a blurring fist, he threw hundreds of corkscrew punches at Abodahan, flying towards him, fast.

The tornadoes fed off the aura in the air, and started from condensed, deadly, screwlike tornadoes, and started to grow, as they sped towards Abodahon.

---

Allen looked up from repairing the fourth, and final orb, as a messanger reached him. He nodded, and took the message from the man. He saluted the messanger, as he scampered off, scared by the gore on the walls of the mage that had once been here.

He sighed. So, Valos was rushing off into battle now, too.

He shook his head, and started to tinker with the orb.

[D. Ein]

-"Let's wait. No need to get our hands dirty if we don't need to."
Ein was becoming more fused to the moth with every second that passed. His mind was slowly being melded with the moth's. He was now simply gliding around.
--- --- ---
Gerard stood up. "Ah, enough rest. Hmm... This looks like a good place for a settlement..." He flew up, glided around the island finally noticing a large rock cliff. He descended towards it and started clawing at it, turning the solid rock into small chunks. Some chunks contained some sort of black metal between them. Gerard extracted the said metal, and put it elsewhere.
//for now, Gerard won't go into contact with other characters.\\

[Xorlak]

Draven closed his eyes, 'watching' the auras dance around him...  It seemed the capital was no longer in danger, at the moment, at least...  Still this charade could be part of a distraction...

He floated down slowly, opening his eyes and seeing the soldiers of both sides locked in hand to hand combat.  Small explosions ripped around randomly.

So, how to end it?  Crimson Death Annihilation?  Oh, what fun... but no, that would render a good chunk of his own land uninhabitable...  Let the battle play out?  Hmmm, might take too long, especially with Ragnar and whoever his weirdo freind is running around...

Release... them...?

Hmmm...  Still an option he still wasn't sure he fully accepted...

At this point, he noticed the demon Abodahon was still alive and fairing quite well against the group of attackers around him...

"What?  Why is that thing still alive?"

----

Ven returned the nod and darted off to the right side of the beast at a quick pace, trying to charge the white energy back into his blade once more.  He would wait for Zeros' tornados to hit and then flank the creature...

----

"Need a hand?"

A voice resonated through the halls behind Allen.  It was James, the short blue elite with the watery aura.

"This one is nearly depleted.  It will require a jump start..."

He walked up to the orb and placed his right gauntlet on it.  His body glowed with a blue aura that surrounded the orb, and soon the large orb resumed its normal crimson glow.  The elite clutched his chest as if he felt a sharp pain, but his face played it no mind and he quickly brushed it off.

"It will last perhaps 10 or 15 more hours.  A replacement is badly needed."

He turned to the open hallway door as two soldiers passed.

"You there!  Clean up this mess!  Slovenly rejects..."

[Trent]

//I'm still interested if Zion and Xenai's attempt to neutralize the gauntlet is effective. It most likely won't be, but don't count them out just yet or anything.

[Dude Man]

Abodahon spotted the two men swing their swords down upon his gauntlets. The blades hit his massive gauntlets making a clanging sound, yet they only scratched the hard black metal. "Fools!" He then lifted his hands and prepared to slam his fists downwards and crush the two. Yet he saw a series of tornados flying towards him, they swooped him up into the air, and he flue into the air. "Ooof-"

He then regained air control and he then dropped himself to the ground fists first and slammed them onto the ground, standing on his fists, making a huge shockwave and cracks and waves in the ground.

----

Duilin continued to charge his fireball, then added lightning energy into it, as it grew bigger. He flue around a bit dodging magic blasts that flue at him, while he charged his attack. Rink flue near by his half demon friend and fired back at the mages, he then fired a high-speed one taking out one of the mages.

----

Valos continued to fly towards his location. "Yes, it is him...Abodahon has returned. I wonder if Duilin knows it yet..."

[D. Ein]

-"Marshal... I think we'll let the mages do their best while we relax a bit." Ein flew another circle.
-"Actually... I have a better idea."
Ein landed the moth, and got one of it's claws drawing circles on the ground. They were coming out pretty shabby as a moth's leg isn't too precise, but it had to do. He drew a bit, and then slammed it's massive claw in the middle of the finished "piece". The mages were now more powerful, more resistant to damage, and took less to cast every spell.

--- --- ---
Gerard kept mining the black material.

[Trent]

Tsu landed. "You're quite welcome. Shin Kuon Yaiba, become flat-edged." He started dashing by mages, starting to take out mages one by one with battou-jutsu attacks aimed at the head.

--- --- ---

Zion and Xenai held their swords so that they took the brunt of the shockwave. Zion thought to himself. What can we do against this guy? It's obvious he values those gauntlets very much, and that most of his power comes from them... But how do we negate them?

--- --- ----

Aura looked around. She saw Lord Draven up in the sky, looking off in another direction. She looked off in the direction he was looking in, and she could hear a lot of activity. She then thought she saw a giant jumping around and firing lasers. She caught a glimpse of that man she saw on the ship fighting against the giant. She figured that the giant was an enemy of the Crimson Empire. She should go help them! She took the hairpin out, and tossed it. It turned into the flying disk, which she promptly jumped on, and flew toward the battle.

Seijin frowned from his cloud. "No, don't go there..." He sent a telepathic message down at Aura.

Do not go there. That beast is far too strong for you.

"Wh- what? Who said that?!"

That isn't important. What is important is that you don't join that battle!

Aura was freaked out now. She floated in place, trying to decide what to do.

[Kahn]

Hyperion flew around the perimeter of Retangrad dropping fire bombs on any soldiers hiding behind walls. Along with the bombs he dropped four claws at four corners of the city. He landed softly and began charging an attack.

[Xorlak]

"Hyaaahh!!"

Ven charged the beast as it landed, leaping over the impending shockwave and spiraling downwards.  He brought the white flashing blade to his side as he came down... a weak spot... he must have one!

His side... this time he'd try for his left side, under the arm...  Ven reared the blade back as he aimed the slash...

----

Two groups of Greys wielding swords and spears emerged from the center of Retangrad and merged, charging the dragon straight on.  Another group of Grey mages appeared behind, casting a shield in front of the charging soldiers and firing some more orbs over their heads in Hyperion's direction...

[Zeros']

Zeros' simply jumped, avoiding the shockwave. He then thurst his hand up, and all of the tornadoes (Theres hundreds of them, and they're growing slowly every second) followed his hand, and went towards the giant demon, spinning faster, and growing stronger.

---

Allen nodded to the blue elite.

"Yes... This one was damaged the most. The others are still in well-enough shape, that, they still won't need replacements for a few weeks... If nothing this major happens again. I'll start work on the replacement soon... Right now, we need to worry about how much Haraldur will damage the main city," he said.

He had also seen the blue elite clutch his chest in obvious pain, but, he didn't question the man about it.
