~+Tales of FFF+~The Role Play

Zeria bolted up and skidded to a halt next to Julius, the Lion Heart drawn."Sir Julius, let's take him down together. Lucious has caused us all so much pain and suffering, I want revenge. If not for me, I want it for you. For all of the horrible things he's done to you"She was shaking...a little afraid...she didn't know what to expect, and she was still injured pretty badly. Lucious was at full strength though. That was a major disadvantage. No, she was going to overcome this obstacle, even if it cost her life."This is going to end now..."
 
"Oh my, such an aggressive young little child. Still being quite a nuisance, am I correct Zeria? Meh, love....you are too young to know anything about love human. Now you will all experience a taste of my curse...Noctis Aeterna!!!"

Lucius hovered above them as he rose his hands summoning the forces of the shadows to do his will. In mere instants, the tower was enveloped by dark clouds. An eternal Darkness envelops the surrounding areas boosting Lucius’ dark powers. After that, Lucius merges with the darkness and becomes a hooded spectrum, wielding both his long sword and “Death’s” scythe. The left half of Lucius’s face changes to skull, combining Lucius’ and Death’s power
 
Zeria growled and glared at Lucious even more.

"And what do you know about love?! It's not like you would understand! You don't know all of the battles I've had to fight through!"

She shook with rage and pointed the gunblade at Lucious.

"YOU COULDN'T POSSIBLY UNDERSTAND ANYTHING ABOUT ME! SO STOP CALLING ME A CHILD!"

She took off running towards him and whipped out her Hellfire Blade, readying a Cross Slash. She was going to nail him with the attack, then perform a simple leap behind him and go for a slash to the throat. Then it would be over. As she crossed the blades in front of her for the attack, she thought of only one thing......Julius...
 
Hejaloki watched silently from the shadows.

He realized so much power the demon has regained. Hejaloki was beginning to worry if the demon grew to strong to be defeated.
 
ooc: If I can't do this let me know and I will edit this.

FFGuy could feel the immense darkness growing, Lucius was engulfing the castle with evil.

FFGuy: this will make fighting here more difficult, this battlefield will be difficult to overcome.

Suddenly the crystal began to glow, FFGuy's body started to go numb and the armour of his evil sde began to appear on his body, also, his blade began to change into the mighty blade that his evil side previously had. FFGuy's magic and strength seemed greatly enhanced, with this he hovered and turned to Shenorai.

FFGuy: Shenorai, if you feel strong enough let us go, we will need everyone if we are to defeat Lucius.
 
As Zeria charged toward Lucious a shadow appeared on the floor in front of him. All of a sudden a arm reached out and began to drag out a cursed sould, the Dark Knight Nex Vesica. With one hand he brings his sword high into the air and glares at Zeria with his four red eyes.

"Die pathetic being!"

He then brings his sword down with inhuman strength toward Zeria.
 
OOC: Ok since you removed the castle's power source now Lucius is the only one who is keeping the castle on the skies. If he is defeated then the castle could...who knows....crash? :P

IOC:


Lucius grinned at the sight of Zeria's attack. He didn't make the slightest effort to dodge it, in fact he was welcoming it with open arms. -"You are deluding yourself, pathetic human. I will make you experience pain without even inflicting damage on your body. I am the one who most likely attacks..the heart..."-devilish laugh-"now prepare for another one of my moves...Mortis Aeterna!!!"-. He rose his right arm once again with his hand wide open and began to chant an ancient spell that summons from the heavens the legendary scythe wielded by the Grim Reaper, a mighty weapon infused with the powers of life and death. The scythe is a dark steel staff with a large crescent moon blade attached to the far end of the staff. This weapon allows its wielder to fully use the powers of “Death” and summon powerful demons from the realm of the dead. With the powers of darkness and the weapon wielded by the reaper of souls, Lucius was clearly driven into madness.

Lucius closed his eyes and awaited for Zeria's attacks to be even closer. He then placed his scythe before himself and spun it madly like a ferocious fan swallowing some of the shadows around him and transforming them into magical barrier. -"Murus Obscurus"- this intermediate dark elemental spell shielded Lucius 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. When Zeria's Cross Slash seemed to get in contact with Lucius' barrier, the dark shield swallowed the attack completely.

Julius seeing an opportunity to strike, jumped towards Lucius. The knight rose his blade above his head and began to gather energy from within his soul to strike down the hooded spectrum. Unfortunately, Lucius never lost sight of Julius, so the dark lord used the same attack Zeria used against him and redirected it towards Julius. -"Cross Slash"-The attack was thus sent hurling ferociously like two giant energy waves towards Julius' chest. The attack stroke Julius in mid air enveloping it with dark flames and sending the knight crashing against the floor. Julius rose from the ground and regained his fighting stance, though he was clearly affected by the same attack that Zeria intended to use against Lucius.

-"You see Zeria, even if you rebel against your dark origins you always end up doing the will of the darkness, my will.Come Nex Vesica! Defeat our enemies with your rage!! Make them fill your sorrow!!!!!"-

Julius approaches Zeria, with small scars on his chest and showing signs of fatigue. The knight then fell on his knees to to exhaustion and turned his sight to Zeria, who was standing close to him.

-"Zeria....the only way to defeat him is by making him vulnerable to human emotions. As long as he remains there as an instrument of pure darkness without feeling joy, nor hatred, he will be unstoppable. Making feel, try to discover what made him vulnerable before...."-

Julius suddenly remembered his battle against Shenorai. The fight took place in a ruined cathedral. During the battle, Lucius made himself known to Shenorai by backstabbing his own brother when the knight was off guard. The battle raged between Shenorai and Lucius, ending with Shenorai defeating a young phantom knight possessed by an immense sorrow. It was then, when something changed Lucius. For the first time in so many years Lucius began to experience love, something that began to eat his sorrow.

-"Zeria!! You need Shenorai to defeat Lucius! Use her against my brother. That's his only weakness. I know it's cruel, but we must use his love towards her as his only vulnerability and strike him down!. Hurry up and bring her here. Arthvader and I will keep him busy. Just go!!"-

Julius gave Zeria the command while staring at Lucius. If Shenorai was the only hope, then they had little time before the forces of evil ended up swallowing the love Lucius felt towards Shenorai. Meanwhile Lucius remained hovering in mid air wielding both his scythe and sword. Revenge, Lucius' weapon, is a sword infused with the greatest rage unimaginable. Purely made of evil, the sword can only be summoned once by the greatest amount of rage and hatred. Lucious found this sword the day he was possessed by the darkness.
-Blade: The dark silver blade is 5 feet long 2 inches wide with a ruby at the base in which the handle and the blade are connected. Ancient texts were engraved all over the blade and will glow red in response to its wielder’s feelings.
-Hand Guard: The hand guard is crescent moon shaped which covers the hands of its wielder. Two black angel wings that go to the sides (left and right) are attached to this part.
-Handle: The handle is 8 inches long and was made as a single piece, both the blade and the handle. The handle is covered with red and black silk, golden lines and ancient texts. At the end of the handle, there’s a dark angel wing enveloping a single red ruby.
 
Zeria didn't want to leave him, but could not refuse his orders.

"I'll be back in a second, just please don't die on me!"

She bolted down the stairs and rushed to Shenorai.

"Sister Shen! Julius needs you! We can't defeat Lucious without you! Please, please, please! Help us out! If you do, I'll gladly let you and Julius get close without any jealousy! Please!"

With that, she took off back up the stairs. She could only hope that Shen would come. If she didn't, they were all doomed. As she ran in, she was almost afraid.

"Sir Julius, I have done what you ordered. She should be on her way up momentarily after she helps FFGuy"

She readied her blades again and started thinking. Then, she had it!

"Julius! What if I use my Shattered Memory ability?! I could force him to relive all of his memories with Shenorai!"

Zeria really hoped that Julius would say it worked. Otherwise, she'd be fresh out of ideas.

"Would it work?"
 
As he overheard Zeria's plan, Arthvader has some concerns about what Zeria has planed. He then explained his part of the plan against.

Arthvader "I doubt that would work, Zeria. Until Shen arrives, I'll battle Lucious alone. As I am now, I can lead an even battle against him, so just wait and stay back."

Arthvader then charged towards Lucious, preparing his attack pattern.

Arthvader "Phoenix, Use Fira. Gilgamesh, prepare for a strike on Lucious's back area. Now, Gibarta."

The phoenix blasted a spew of fire towards Lucious. Gilgamesh, with his quick speed, managed to get behind Lucious, and pushed him towards the phoenix's attack, causing Lucious to recieve damage. While Lucious is being burned, Arthvader sent 3 waves of Ice pillars, guaranteeing a hit from one of the pillars.

Arthvader "Can you take the cold?
 
As the flames burned and scorched Lucius, several ice lances
pierced the demon from all sides leaving him brutally impaled. Moments later, the hooded spectrum was fully consumed ashes clouded the sky falling all around them. Here it came a moment of silence, the victory being quite believable yet it was false. Julius never dropped his guard, as if he were expecting his brother to return.

-"Stay on guard. My brother is not so easily defeated. He wants to toy with out minds with his tricks...."-

Almost as if Julius' words served as a prelude to this moment, the ashes began to gather in the very center of room above them. Lightnings soared through the skies and thunderous roars swallowed most sounds. A dark mist enveloped the ashes and it began to fuse with it. From within, a black cape almost like a shadow grew, the hooded spectrum was beginning to materialize. Still something was different, when Lucius face finally appeared his eyes were now red and blue showing the elemental attributes of Arthvader's previous attacks.

The sounds of shattered steel chains hanging from the ghost's arms, spikes on his shoulders and a demonic crown on his head, this was truly an horrifying sight to behold. His bony left hand held his scythe while the seemingly human right hand was wielding his Revenge sword. The malicious smile pictured on the human right side of Lucius' human face seemed confident, as if he were satisfying himself with the brutality of the attacks he endured before. -"Sphata Obscura"- Lucius whispered to himself as his "Revenge" sword began to be surrounded by dark flames. He then rose his sword and held it high, channeling the evil energy around him inside his blade-"You obviously..."- Lucius closed his eyes as he gathered more energy-"don't know..."-Lucius opened his eyes which were burning now with reddish orange flames-"who..."-Lucius rose his right eyebrow with attempting to mock his enemies-"you are dealing with!!!!"-The smile pictured on Lucius' face disappeared as he swung his blade in a downward arc as soon as he chanted the spell-"Iudicium (Judgment)"- An advanced dark elemental spell infused with the hatred. The incantation summons meteors from the darkness of the space and sends them towards a targeted area that will damage anything three feet away from the affected area. The meteors are enveloped with purple flames. As Lucius blade was swung, the meteor appeared from within the dark clouds aiming to Arthvade, Julius and Zeria.

Julius bent his knees and leaped towards Zeria, raising his blade and summoning a magical barrier to shield Zeria and himself. Julius chanted his spell- ”Scutum de Energia”- An intermediate non elemental spell that shields against frontal elemental and non elemental attacks. The magical shield is 6 feet tall and 5 feet wide and requires the caster to fully dedicate itself to this action and will eventually disappear after the caster dispels the enchantment. One of the meteors headed towards Zeria and Julius stroke the shield and the flaming stone was shattered into numerous debris that scattered around them.
 
Zeria was getting more and more upset by the moment. Julius was doing his best to defend her, without taking care of himself. She just couldn't stand it anymore and took off running towards Lucious.

"I can't take it anymore!"

She charged up her energy into the Hellfire Blade and sent in hurtling towards Lucious. The very second it touched something, it would emit massive waves of flame and burn all in its path. She followed up and prepared a series of slashes aimed for Lucious' heart.

"This is going to end!"
 
Zeria's consecutive blows landed on Lucius chest as the dark lord remained staring motionlessly to her yellow eyes. He snapped his fingers as the magical waves diminished around him. Suddenly, the phantom dashed towards Zeria disappearing and reappearing in clouds of shadows. He landed behind her, his face close to Zeria's left ear. He grinned and whispered to Zeria -"Don't you remember....I have no heart....I can't feel joy anymore....I am a heartless fiend just like you my dear..."-after that he brought the full weight of his sword to Zeria's shoulder. Julius tackled Zeria in an attempt to shield her once again with his own body, taking a direct hit on his left shoulder by Lucius' blade. The sword slashed his back partially as he fell on his knees and quickly rose on his feet.

Lucius then backed away from Zeria and floated towards the sky and remained hovering in mid air. He then brought his eyes to Nex Vesica.-"Nex Vesica! Show them true horror!!!"-Lucius commanded as he channeled more of his energy inside his scythe.
 
Zeria was getting beyond upset now.

"Julius, stop it! I can handle it! I don't want you getting hurt protecting me!"

She ran back at Lucious again, tears streaming down her cheeks.

"If you're so heartless, how can you love Shenorai?!"

She brought down the Lion Heart gunblade towards his heart again. Hopefully, her words had gotten through to Julius, and he'd work on defending himself more.
 
The bounty hunter blinked at the red-head as she made her plea before running back up the stairs. Though, what use would she be against Lucious? She couldn't bring herself to lift a sword against the fiend after what he's done for her.

...the hell did she mean by she'll let me get close to Julius without her being jealous? Shenorai asked the ghost as she started jogging up the stairs, the staff clutched tightly in her hand.
Well, they have something planned, Leondra responded.

Shenorai followed Zeria up the stairs until they ended up on the roof of the castle. Once she set foot in this arena of sorts, Shen almost froze when she saw Lucious again. Her friends seemed to be giving their all to even lay a scratch on their enemy, but it didn't look like they were succeeding.

Both of her slender hands gripped the shaft of her staff. As much as she wanted to run in and join the fray, something held her back...and it wasn't the ghost.

...I just can't...why can't I fight?
 
OOC: Seeing as if my last post pretty much didn't happen this is almost a repeat.

As Zeria begins her charge a black mist appears in front of her and Nex Vesica's arm flies out and grabs Zeria by the neck. The rest of Nex Vesica then emerges from the mist and raises her to his eye level which is several feet in the air. He then lets out a inhuman roar and brings her close to his face. He then bring his sword back ready to thrust. Then she hears the familer voice of Lord Samael.

"Goodbye my love....."
 
Zeria tried to free herself from his grasp. She couldn't breathe.

"Please...stop this, I..."

She struggled harder.

"I don't want...to hurt you.....I just...want to end all of this fighting!"

She couldn't understand. Why was Lord Samael doing this to her? Just because she wouldn't give him her love? Now she had to ask him. She needed to know the answers. Her voice pleaded with him to answer her, even as she fought to be able to breathe.

"Why, Lord Samael...why? Why do this? What have I done...that's so wrong?"
 
Nex Vesica halted his attack and stared deep into Zeria's eyes.

"We are but our masters sword."

His voice is then joined by the other to forms.

"But we do love you.....because you remind us of our lost love......Kira.

His eyes then drop to the floor.
 
Zeria was almost at her breaking point where she would pass out, so she swung her leg up in a side kick and freed herself from his grasp, falling to the floor as she gasped for air. She was still crying.

"Your master doesn't seem to care about love....so why should he care about another being. You shouldn't be just a tool!"

She shakily stood up, still trying to get enough air. She felt lightheaded and dizzy...like she would fall over any second now.

"You treated me with a kindness like no other...tried to give me everything I wanted.....for that, I am thankful. You truly were a very kind person to me.....but look at you now. You're bent by hatred and anger...it's not the way to go on....so I'm sorry, but I must kill your master"

She bolted past him and headed for Lucious again, this time with a fury like no other. She wasn't going to let anyone stop her....
 
Nex Vesica stood still for a moment in mental conflict with the two other form. They were debating the honor of being a weapon of his master or the love he had for Zeria that had remined him of his lost love Kira. Then something moved within him. It was not light like everyone hope for but the darkness Lucious had placed into him. It quickly stole all feeling from him and turned him into a beast and a true weapon. He then lost all feeling except for the loyaty for his master. He quickly servayed the area and noticed Zeria charging toward his master. With a demonic howl he began his seige toword Zeria.
 
Zeria swung backwards and did a flip over him, landing a few feet away and aiming her sword at him. She was panting, her exhaustion clearly showing, but the determination that burned in her eyes was unstoppable.

"If there is no other way to persuade you, I have no choice. I will bring you down if you continue to be an obstacle in my path to killing the man who I despise with my entire being. This darkness he's given you is clouding your judgement, therefore, I will rid you of it!"

She ripped her blades in an "X" shape, sending off a powerful Cross Slash at him, then charged at him, preparing a set of 19 slices to the chest. It would be enough to drop him and give her a clear aim for his heart.
