~+Tales of FFF+~The Role Play

Leondra gasped as she saw Lucious, her wings spread out to make her appear bigger. However, it just seemed to give the vortex more to drag towards the orb.

Damn you, Lucious! What have you done with Shenorai~!

Her cries and curses were muffled and soon silenced as the ghost was drawn into the orb. No matter how much she struggled, she could not escape Lucius's grasp. There was a slight glimmer from the very depths of the sphere, giving it more of a violet hue.

-~Meanwhile~-

At long last, Shenorai's eyes cracked open slowly. Her body felt utterly drained and incredibly sore. She was disoriented thanks to her unfocused eyes, but after a minute of simply blinking and concentrating on the ceiling above her, her vision soon cleared up. With some effort, Shen managed to push herself up into a sitting position. With a groan, she held her heavy, pounding head in her left hand.

"Ugh...where am I?" she asked meekly.

Shen's mind was a blur. The unfamiliar room was spinning around her. She racked her mind, trying to remember where she last was.

"...last I remember, I was... fighting undead... and..."

What little blood she had drained from her face. That earthen chamber and the priests flashed in her mind. Shenorai violently shook her head in disbelief.

"N-no, that can't be right. Leondra, what was I doing?"

Silence engulfed her.

"...Leondra?" Shen called again hesitantly, slowly looking around the room for any sign of the ghost. However, there wasn't a soul to be found.

Her heart plummeted. "...then she's...really gone..."

FFGuy was preparing to fly up and launch an attack when the mechanical menace backed off

FFGuy: get back here!

FFGuy was preparing to fly after it when he saw Zeria with a broken arm and Arthvader who was weakened but refused to show much of it, FFGuy hovered down to them and used a cura spell on Zeria

FFGuy: if you are ready to move on, then lets go!
 
Lucious held his staff triumphant for at long last he had obtained one of the things he most desired: Leondra's Soul. He heard to Arthvader's replies and turned away from him. Lucious closed his eyes while he sensed Arthvader's spell getting closer.

"You pathetic little pest. I am starting to get really upset due to your constant non stopping meddling. Didn't your parents taught you how to keep your noses out of other people's affairs? Oh wait, aren't your parents already dead? Hahahahahahaha"

Lucious opened his eyes and quickly turned around to face Arthvader. In mere seconds, Lucious rose his staff and summoned a powerful force field.

"Murus Obscurus!!!!"

The enchantment
summoned a spell that shields against frontal elemental and non elemental attacks. The magical shield is 6 feet tall and 6 feet wide and requires the caster to fully dedicate itself to this action and will eventually disappear after the caster dispels the enchantment.

The spell itself absorbed the Arthvader's incoming magical attack, swallowing within it's darkness. Lucious then lowered his staff, disabling the magical barrier and once again turning around to leave the room.

"Arthvader, if you wish to end your pathetic life. Come to my throne room and I'll make your wishes come true...oh and don't forget to bring the one who betrayed my brother. I have her just reward for her much appreciated help. As for Dark Fayte, dear brother of shadows would you please end their miserable lives once and for all? If you do you will be greatly rewarded with a power beyond your imagination."

Lucious stepped further into the shadows of the long dark hallway leading to his throne room. Suddenly a blinding flash illuminated the room and the only thing that could be seen were a dark cloud enveloping Lucious. After it dissipated, there were no trace of the dark lord's whereabouts.

Lucious appeared before the door of the room in which he left Shenorai. He went inside carrying his cursed staff and stood in front of Shenorai.

"Now my dear, I shall return to what my foolish soul once wanted to take away from you."

Lucious rose his staff and aimed it to Shenorai's chest. In a few moments, Lucious began to release Leondra's soul into Shenorai's body once and for all.

"What darkness tore apart, let me join it once again. You and Leondra are bound together for as long as you wish it. It is a small price to pay to redeem myself from my sins."

Lucious approached Shenorai wanting to kiss her, but he doubted and instead he caressed her beautiful face, and even though he wanted to smile, he couldn't.

"You are free to leave when you wish it. I am going to end this nightmarish story with the destruction of the Silverwing Bloodline and the birth of a new era. I have manipulated my brother and my own fate with these blood stained hands. A ruthless monster like me deserves no pitty, joy or love. Farewell...my..."

Lucious attention was caught by a familiar presence: it was Hejaloki. Lucious placed the magical Soul Sealing staff next to Shenorai.

"This staff will enhance your magical powers. I have no longer need for it for my magic has reached unimaginable levels. It also has the ability to seal ancient spirits. It will be useful when the time comes."

Lucious left the room, his face was as motionless as a rock for he had lost all signs of humanity and was now an empty shell wandering like a ghost within the halls of this god forsaken fortress.

Nex Vesica then appeared out of a dark mist behined Arthvader with his sword held high.

"Your sword will do as you wish Master Lucious."

Crimen Vesica, the sword which Nex Vesica weilded began to glow with a red hugh as the sword started to absorb dark energy that surrounded him.
 
"...Lucious..."

Too late to ask any questions. The door had closed quietly. Shenorai placed her hand upon her chest, feeling her soul mend back together slowly. Almost felt like she had consumed a cup of hot tea and its warmth was spreading throughout her chest.

...are you all right, Shen? a familiar voice asked.
A smile finally broke the bounty hunter's lips. "...just a bit of blood loss, is all..."
He didn't hurt you or anything?
Shenorai shook her head. "...I don't get it."
What?
"He knows what I'm here for...yet he saved my life and returns you to me..."
Shen, you've been avoiding people for far too long.
She gave the ghost a deathly glare. "...what's that supposed to mean?"
He brings you here to regain your strength instead of leaving you to die. He went through the trouble of finding me and returns me to you. He even treated you with care instead of malice-
"You're not saying what I think you are, are you?"
It's a little too obvious, Shen.

The bounty hunter stared at the door for a moment before letting her eyes fall to the staff, rendered absolutely speechless. She was a friend of Julius, thus an enemy of Lucious. He saved her life for a chance of love?

"...but...why me? I'm not worth it..."
Shen...

Shenorai glanced at the ghost, though said nothing.

We need to find the others. Think you can stand? Use that staff if you have to.

FFGuy was waiting for the others to rise so they could continue but the Zombies seemed to be breaking through the front door.

FFGuy: quick! stand, if you can't I will carry you both but we have to hurry! the Zombies are breaking through the entrance!

FFGuy extended his hand to help Zeria rise and waited to see if Arthvader still had the strength for a long run.
 
Hejaloki stood up for he knew it will soon be time.

Waiting Lucious to come back. Hejaloki gathered all his power for the fight ahead.

Soon this demon will fall...
 
Seeing his spell completely absorbed by Lucious's barrier, Arthvader suddenly collapsed on his knees, totally out of breath. He then heard what Lucious said before he left.

Lucious "Arthvader, if you wish to end your pathetic life. Come to my throne room and I'll make your wishes come true...oh and don't forget to bring the one who betrayed my brother. I have her just reward for her much appreciated help."

He then vanished before him.

Arthvader "The next time we meet, Lucious, I'll surely end you life, and i'll then have avenged Shen and Julius."

Dark Fayte then appeared behind Arthvader, surprising him.

Arthvader "What!? Dark Fayte? So, you've been working for Lucius this whole time? Why are you doing this?"

'Great, just what I need, more trouble, Lucky for me, I had a couple of Elixers ready for such a case as this.'

He then quickly drank up one of his elixers, completely restoring all of his energy.

Arthvader "Whew, I feel much better now. Now, Where was I? Oh yeah, Dark Fayte, it's time for you to be gone. I'll send you to the depths of hell."
 
OOC:Remember I am in Nex Vesica form the same form that you guys meet in front of the castle.

IC: As Nex Vesica looked down at Arthvader he gave off a deep growl. As his sword filled with power, red veins begain to appear on it. As with Nex Vesica red ruins started to appear all over his body.

"I am only a weapon only Master Lucious has been able to fully weild."

With that being said he begins to bring his sword down toward Arthvader.

"Now die.......so that my master may be pleased."
 
(Dark Fayte. sorry if I slightly god-modded, if it troubles you tell me and I'll change my post.)

Lucious sat on his throne and witnessed the battle between Arthvader and Nex Vesica through a magical mirror hovering before him. Lucious was pleased to see how Nex Vesica was fulfilling his mission successfully. He smiled, resting his face on his left hand.

"It seems that Dark Fayte enjoys killing as much as I enjoy the power of darkness."

Lucious's mood changed, he was troubled by Shenorai's condition. If she were to die it would be because of him. Lucious didn't know if the soul infusion was successful nor if Leondra's power helped to heal her beloved.

"I know she will never love me. How someone so pure, so noble, could love something so corrupted and tainted like me?"

Lucious rose his right arm and aimed his hand to the mirror. He then began to gather dark energy within the palm of his hand.

"Just a little taste of my dark power, Dark Fayte."

Lucious then summoned a powerful beam of light and shot it to the mirror. Instead of reducing it to shreds, the beam went through the mirror as if it were passing through a magical portal. Suddenly, a dark mist surrounded the hall and a blinding light appeared behind Dark Fayte, striking him.

The beam of light infused Nex Vesica with the powers of the underworld. As a consequence, all of Nex Vesica's powers were enhanced significantly and even giving Nex Vesica the power to summon dark minions from the grave.
 
Arthvader "Sorry, but you'll be the one who'll die, Nex. Now, Prepare yourself."

As Nex Vesica charged towards Arthvader, He Charged up his energy back to his gold aura.

'Good, it seems I'm able to regain my strength this quickly due to that elixer.'

Without any weapons, He allowed Nex to come very close to him, but the moment Nex was about to go through him, Arthvader grabbed Nex's sword.

Arthvader "You think that can easily stop me? Think again!"

And with those words, Arthvader broke Nex's sword with his bare hands.

Arthvader "Don't think I'm done yet."

Nex Vesica stumbles back a couple of feet. Because of his size and strength he is able to stay on his feet. He stands looking at his sword for a minute. Then a blinding light pierces through a dark mist that had gathered behined him striking his back.

He growls as he begins to absorb the dark energy. As the light fades he falls to the ground on all fours. He then begins to rise. Dark mist is bellowing out from every crack in his armor.

As he begins to walk toward Arthvader his body starts changing. Long spike grow from his back. The tips of his fingers grow longer and razor sharp. Two more set of eyes grow into his mask, totaling up to four red glowing eyes. His sword become whole again and doubles in size, also becoming stronger and faster. Four black wisp-o-willows appear two on each side.

He then stops places his hand on the ground. A pentagram forms around him and four ghouls rise up out of the ground wearing similar armor than him. He then stands up and begins a very menacing laugh that sound like its from another world.

"Witness the power of my Master!" He belows as he signals the ghouls to attack the group.
 
There was a faint noise that echoed down the hall from the throne room. It sounded like a door shut and the latch clicked. After a moment of silence, there was a faint clack of metal upon stone and a pair of scuffing noises. The noise grew louder as it approached the throne room.

From the shadows of the hall, the bounty hunter dragged herself into view, heavily relying on the support of the staff she was given. Shen entered the room and stopped for a moment, looking about and seeing where she was. She paused when she spotted the lord of the castle standing in front of a hovering mirror. Her flesh was pale, though from the loss of blood rather than fright.

Her lips formed the lord's name, though no sound emerged. Shenorai could not see the images upon the reflective glass, though could only guess what he was viewing after seeing his attention upon it. At last, the young woman spoke up. Her voice sounded weak, but that didn't keep her question at bay.

"...why are you doing this, Lucious?"

Shenorai's violet eyes were fixed upon him. She knew well that she couldn't lift a sword for a battle of any sort. There were so many questions that her eyes were begging to ask, yet she held her tongue until she received an answer.
 
Realizing the monsters that Nex has summoned, as well as the apparent change in his appearance, Arthvader started channeling his energy to the point in which he appears to be on fire.

Arthvader "I haven't revealed this technique to anyone yet. Yes, this is one of my many Blitz Technique. Now, prepare for your demons to be burned. FIRE DANCE!!!!"

He then started to do a ritual dance in the battlefield. During that time, spirits of fire started appearing from below and attacked Nex and the demons, Burning them in the process.By the time the attack finished, The spirits left and Arthvader headed towards the demons, bashing each and every single weakened one, destroying them.

Arthvader "You think those demons could stand a chance?"

Lucious was distracted by the sounds of a familiar voice and though it was weak he could recognize it. He once heard the melodious sound of that voice coming from mouth of a beautiful lady. Her soft lips, her blushing cheeks, her silky hair and her tender skin. It was Shenorai. Long he had cherished the moment to see her dedicating at least a few minutes to talk with him without calling him fiend, devil or any other derogatory name. But who could blame her, after all he was Lucious, a monster.

His silver hair fell before his face and on his shoulders. His green eyes shining evilly were fixed on this Muse of Beauty, this angel from the heavens. Lucious rose from his throne and looked upon Shenorai.

"...why are you doing this, Lucious?"

Lucious couldn't speak, his mouth pronounced no words. He sighed, turning his sight away from Shenorai's eyes, he was ashamed. Lucious then fell on his knees and placed his hands on his face, as if he were trying to hide his devilish eyes from Shenorai.

"I have no answers for such a question. You came to kill me, and I understand. Long have I walked the Earth defying the heavens without punishment. Eternally cursed to roam this world as a fiend. Must I spend my life like this only because it was written in my destiny to be the lord of darkness? Have I no right to live a normal life like others? Must I refuse to fell love only because no one will love me in return? No my dear, I don't think it's fair. Please know me better before judging me so harshly. I haven't heard you saying it, but I know that you think I am an unforgivable bastard and you might be right. Come oh noble angel, bring your wrath upon my tainted soul. I won't stop you for I can't force my heart to do you any harm. I have ruined your life long enough....it's time for me to meet my doom my love."
 
Shenorai stood, stunned at Lucious' state. Of all the emotions he could've possibly shown, she never pictured him in shame. This...monster...longed for normality, yet is cursed with this dark fate.

And of all things she could feel for him...Shen never thought she'd pity him.

With a sigh, her eyes lowered to the stone floor and replied softly, "...I'm no angel...no abomination with hands as filthy and bloodstained as mine deserves such a title. What angel kills for a living?"

Shenorai held her left hand before her, as though imagining all the blood that was spilled with this hand and its matching pair. The 'angel' heaved yet another sigh, letting her hand drop a little before grasping the cold steel of the staff once more.

"...you...you cannot possibly ruin my life any more than it already has been, Lucious. You are not to blame for my memories..."

She paused before raising her eyes to Lucious, whether he would meet hers or not. From the length of her pause, it seemed like she was hesitant to speak again. Almost like she was afraid of the response she would receive after speaking once more.

"...you claim that I'm your love, but...I don't think I could...not for anyone." Her eyes pulled away from him again. "With love comes betrayal, no matter what form it comes in. I can't risk being betrayed again. I don't want...I don't want to be hurt again..."

Her voice had faded, interrupted by an annoying lump in her throat. Though she tried, she couldn't seem to force her voice to work through the lump. Her sight blurred for a moment before she saw a couple tears fall and splashing onto the stone, darkening it.

Leondra, the host asked the ghost, are these tears yours?
No, Shen...take some deep breaths and calm yourself. This is no time to lose your composure.
 
Lucious turned his sight to Shenorai, a single tear fell from his left eye running over his cheek and splashing on the cold floor. He reached the handle of his sword and grabbed it tightly.

"History repeats itself. Such a cruel fate to experience the same tragedy that doomed me before once again. It seems that the heavens hate me even more than I think, for I am doomed to relive my sorrow yet again."

Lucious slowly unsheathed his sword and left the tip of his blade rest on the cold stone floor. His face showed his own misery, his sorrow, his pain and his eternal grudge towards his very own soul. Lucious rose his blade and aimed it at Shenorai.

"I must....finish this....it is my fate to do so....but...how? I can't force myself to hate someone if I have lived a lifetime without love....it's not fair...I didn't ask to be like this..."

Lucious walked towards Shenorai, his face and clothes were wet with tears coming from the bottom of his darkened soul, his tainted heart. He extended his left arm and caressed her face, gently as if he were bidding farewell with actions that couldn't be expressed with words. Lucious reached his pocket and pulled a ring. The ring was engraved with the words "To my love" carved on its surface and had two beautiful angel holding a precious ruby.

Lucious then took his sight away from Shenorai, and turned away facing his throne. He walked towards the throne, almost as if he were literally forcing himself to move.


"...you claim that I'm your love, but...I don't think I could...not for anyone. With love comes betrayal, no matter what form it comes in. I can't risk being betrayed again. I don't want...I don't want to be hurt again..."


"Then so be it. If I don't deserve your love then I have nothing else to fight for. I will submit to my darkness and let it swallow these feelings of love..."



Lucious brought his left hand to his chest and sighed deeply. He sat on his throne almost letting his body crash violently against it. He held his sword tightly with a deepening hatred eating away his heart. Lucious closed his eyes not wanting to see Shenorai again for he thought that he had no right to dream with a life filled of joy with her.


"And so my cursed fate is sealed by your words. It has been an honor to meet you Lady Shenorai Eterna. I am sorry that my hospitality was not the best to suit your liking. You may leave whenever you wish. I will not stop you."


Lucious then smiled, thought it was fake, he did it with the sole intention on making her feel comfortable. With a mere snap of his fingers, the doors behind Shenorai opened violently, allowing anyone the rest of the group to enter.

"Come foul beasts. Denizens of the cruel gods of fate! Come and bring your wrath upon this broken soul!!! Feel my hatred and let us fight to the death!!! Mark my words, if you dare to lay your hand on my dearest Shenorai, you will all face a fate worst than death."


Suddenly a ferocious beast landed next to Lucious throne, it was Aeternus. The mechanical fiend surrounded by electricity and static stood near his master, waiting for his commands.

"Now Aeternus! Today we die honorably. Shenorai, leave this fortress at once for I will destroy it myself and bring these heathens back to hell from which they should have never left."

Lucious began to cough blood, it seems that with his hatred growing more and more, so did the curse and it began to overwhelm him. He rose from his throne and swung his blade ferociously from left to right almost as if he were daring anyone to enter. Aeternus remained silent, his power was raising beyond unimaginable levels. Lucious then jumped away from Aeternus and landed on a balcony behind the throne room. The balcony was then covered with a powerful force field protecting the dark lord of the castle. Aeternus had his systems ready for the final confrontation, awaiting for his challengers to arrive.

"System ready. Preparing for battle. Energy at 100%. System working at 100%. Awaiting orders..."


Lucious grinned, he sat on an armchair and prepared himself to witness the battle from above. Lucious closed his eyes -"Aeternus....at my signal..." he opened them showing the reddish glow swallowing his irises like a sea of flames -"unleash HELL!!!!!!"-
 
FFGuy could not spare to stay with Zeria, he could hear a low rumbling which could only be bad.

FFGuy: Zeria, I am sorry but I must leave you, when you are fit follow after me, I will leave a trail.

And with this being said FFGuy started to run to what he believed to be the throne room, every few yards FFGuy placed a feather of his wings so Zeria could follow, but time was running out and Lucius had to be stopped soon, otherwise they were all finished.

After a few corridoors were passed FFGuy heard a strange sound, not a rumle or a tremple but a dull thud coming from an unlocked door, when he opened it he saw a large crystal, it was semi-transparent and completely flawless, it was coated in a deep blood red and sparkled like a night sky.

FFGuy: would this explain the disturbance?

FFGuy started to approach the crystal and prepared to pick it up
 
"Lucious...I'm sorry. I'm just not worth it."

Shen dried her eyes with her sleeve, attempting to clear her sinuses with a few sniffs. Didn't seem to work to well, really. The grip on her staff was tighter now, mostly out of uncertainty of what the creature before her can do.

Shen! That's the thing i told you about! The creature that was attacking Zeria and them!
"...I doubt I'm safe from it."

Taking a few steps forward, Shenorai eyed the creature known as Aeternus. Its erratic movement made her a little nervous, as though just knowing this thing could be unpredictable. She lifted her eyes to Lucious, raising her voice and calling out to him.

"You know what I came here for, Lucious! I'm not leaving this castle without your brother! Now where is he?!"
 
Hejaloki walked from out of the shadows of the throne room. Only his eyes glowed. Hejaloki noticed this Aeternus creature. He could see past the lies of this creature and see that it was Julius. He knew Lucious was responsible for this deed. Then Hejaloki looked at Shen.

He said to Shen, "Cant you see where Julius is. Look around you for him and you will see the truth. But be wary for the truth is appalling."
