~+Tales of FFF+~The Role Play

Nex Vesica block Zeria's attack with his left arm but still takes damage. In his blind rage he charges toward her. All of a sudden a shadow appears in front of Nex Vesica. He pay no mind to and trys to crash through it but is halted. The shadow then takes the form of Lord Samael. He begins to speak to Zeria as he holds back Nex Vesica.

"Zeria.......I can't lose another love.........Nex Vesica has lost control.......to the darkness inside of him.......please Zeria......kill me."
 
Zeria shed another tear and smiled.

"Lord Samael...thank you.....and I will do as you ask. Have peace in death...."

She sheathed her blades and pulled out her custom made dagger.

"I will give you the honor of death by my dagger. And in your heart will it remain..."

She ran forward and tackled him over, bringing down the dagger to his heart. This would be the last thing she could do for him.

"Find peace in death...dearest Lord Samael...there is always a small piece of you in my heart and memories..."
 
As the blade pierced his heart the shadow of Lord Sameal vanished. The beast that was Nex Vesica squrmed in pain and then finally stop moving. The flesh and armor that had covered him began to vanish like shadows being hit by the sun. Once he had completly vanished a elf stood in his place. He was tall thin a well built with long red hair and deep green eyes. He then walked over to Zeria with a smile on his face.

"Thank you Zeria. You have set me free from the darkness that had consumed me heart."

He began to embrace her.

"There is only one thing I can do to repay you."

He places his hand under her chin and kisses her.

"I am now your sword. Use me as you wish.......Master Zeria."
 
Zeria was taken aback by the sudden kiss.

"S-Samael...wha..."

Then, she shook it off. She had only one objective now...Lucious' death. She turned away from him and started running at Lucious, blades drawn and ready to strike once more.
 
Meanwhile, Arthvader had evaded Lucious's darkness spell. He then began charging his energy, while keeping his focus on Lucious

Arthvader "I can't believe someone as powerful as you can't even hit me with that spell. I just noticed that you are darkness, while I am light, and as we all know, light will always pierce the darkness. Now, take this! My ultimate spell, GRANTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Arthvader released a burst of his light aura to send a beam of pure light at Lucious.
 
FFGuy flew up to the top of the tower, Lucius was engaging Arthvader and Julius, Zeria and Shenorai were nearby but out of danger. FFGuy raises his new blade and flies up to Lucius, despite his heavy armour, he was not slowed down, the armour seemed to enhance his abilities.

FFGuy: Lucius! this new power wil stop you!

FFGuy charged his blade in a diagonal slash aiming at Lucius' neck
 
"Nooooooooooooooooaaaaa ahahahahahahaha"

Lucius was suddenly pierced by powerful rays of light as his cloak began to tear apart. He was consumed, almost incinerated by the spell and his remains began to turn to stone. As soon as he fell on the ground, Lucius' body shattered into pieces. Surprisingly, a malicious laugh filled the skies and above them was Lucius, sitting on a floating throne. He was resting his left elbow on the arm of his chair and leaning his chin against his left hand. He seemed bored, his appearance resemblances that of an innocent child. Lucius' eyes were now blue like the skies he swallowed with darkness. He was wearing a golden crown with large spikes covered with gems of all kinds.

"What were you thinking when you did that Arthvader? I think my castle has enough energy to light a candle, so there's no need for your constant meddling. Besides I hate the light except if I have to use it to read a good book."

Lucius' mockery was beyond belief, he was completely insane now seeing that his puppet, Nex Vesica has fallen. Not having another choice, Lucius managed to absorb some of the dark remains of Nex Vesica and transform them into another energy stone that appeared on the palm of his right hand. The stone was purple having a faint light glint and containing distinctive rune, presumably Dark Fayte's Crest. Lucius held the stone high, staring at it with his cold blue eyes, a grim satisfaction could be seen on his face as he smiled.

"He finally served his purpose. What a pity, Dark Fayte was such a valuable asset. I guess he was nothing more than that, an expendable asset and he has just been expended."

He turned his sight to Zeria who was holding a blade summoned by Dark Fayte's will in her hands. He stared at her for a few moments, a serious expression was clearly marked on his face. Abruptly, Lucius grinned and closed his eyes in an attempt to mock Zeria now.

"Oh kill me, my love Zeria....I am your sword...I can't control me, please release me....blah, blah, blah. Good grief, if I wanted to see a lame romantic story I would rather read one....seriously. Now what Zeria? You, like me, are a murderous fiend. You have killed Dark Fayte with your own dirty hands and now what? Are you going to show me or my brother the same mercy you showed Dark Fayte? Is Julius going to die at your hands now only to accomplish your selfish goals? And people said I was a monster...such a disappointment."

Lucius then attached the orb containing Nex Vesica to his sword, Revenge. He then stared to surface of his blade, seeing his own reflection and smiling. Lucius changed his attention to Zeria and Arthvader once again and smirked, an ominous presence could be seen lurking within Lucius' eyes.

"Ok, you kill me, then what? Haven't you realized that the moron of FFGuy removed and absorbed the Power Crystal sustaining this castle? Because I noticed. That leaves me as the only source keeping this castle on the skies. If I am correct, what goes up comes down....I bet you knew that 'cause is...hello Earth to Moon....obvious. If I die, the castle crashes and you all die as well. Boo Hoo too bad, end of story. Now..."


Lucius closed his eyes while standing from his throne. The throne disappeared in a burst of dark mist and adding itself to Lucius' cloak. Lucius then opened his eyes, feeling disgusted due to the current situation.

"Here's when I usually say....Check Mate...by the way where the hell is that white mage...what was her name?....Ah. Vegnya! Yes, I'll allow her to come here as well. Right now her airship should be passing through the dark barriers protecting the castle. I'll make her life easier and let her in."

Lucius snapped his fingers and a thunderous roar could be heard. Meanwhile at the airship, before them the path leading to tallest tower in which Lucius and the others were fighting was revealed to them.
 
Zeria had it.

"That's it! You're going down!"


She started up 19 slashes again.

"I'll never show you mercy! And don't even dare to think I would harm Julius! I'd sooner rip out your heart and cast it into the depths of oblivion!"

To follow up the 19 slashes, she also readied a cross slash and burst of energy she'd rocket at him from her hand.

"I love one and one only! Julius!"
 
Lucius deflected half of the attacks with his blade while blocking the other half with his scythe. He dodged the flurry of seemingly overwhelming attacks with slight difficulty while keeping on his mockery. Smiling like a ruthless monster, he kept eluding Zeria's non-stopping pursuit.

"Such arrogance...."

Suddenly he felt one of the blows successfully landing on his left shoulder, shattering part of the armor that was hidden beneath the cloak. Lucius was surprised to see that Zeria indeed managed to land an attack on him which, as a consequence, enraged Lucius. Lucius unleashed a devastating barrage of attacks with his blades. He swung his blade multiple times from all angles towards Zeria while spinning his scythe. Following up swinging his sword in a downward arc of purple flames, Lucius swung the scythe held by his left hand from left to right.
 
Zeria gasped and cried out as several of the blows struck her, sending her flying across the room. She hit the ground hard and winced. As she got up, she growled and her eyes turned to dark green.

"You're really beginning to piss me off! I've HAD IT!"

Zeria rocketed off towards him, launching off 13 cross slashes. Then, she pulled a speed trick where she vanished and reappeared behind Lucious.

"This is over!"

She swung the Lion Heart down forcefully to Lucious' shoulder and neck.
 
Lucius deflected the gunblade to the left with his scythe and side stepped to the right. He the charged forward unleashing a flurry of consecutive blows with both his sword and scythe, aiming to random targets like Zeria's torso, head, neck and legs.

"This is the end worthless scum!!"

Lucius performed a somersault jump eluding Zeria and landing mere feet before her. Lucius then spun his scythe with his left hand and sent it hurling towards Zeria. Lucius soon brought his left hand to the handle of his sword and held the weapon with both hands. He leaped forward and brought his sword in a downward arc to Zeria from above in an attempt to crush her under the weight of his sword.

Meanwhile Julius was recovering from his resent wound, his weakened state made him quite vulnerable. Due to the risk of infection by Lucius' darkness, Julius' life force was drained slowly. Seeing that Lucius was entertained with Zeria, Julius channeled some of his own energy inside his sword and charged towards Lucius.
 
At the very last second, Zeria spun her Hellfire Blade to deflect the scythe, though it did still cut her shoulder pretty badly, and be able to bring it up to lessen the strength of Lucious' downforce on her.

"Ugh...damn you to hell!"

She didn't know how much longer she could hold up. Her body had sustained too many injuries and blood was splattered everywhere she'd been in the room. She felt herself being forced down more. Zeria was no match for Lucious on her own. That's when she noticed Julius coming towards them. She quickly turned her fury around and pushed harder against Lucious' blade, hoping she could keep him still long enough for Julius' attack to work.

"I won't let you win, you evil bastard!"
 
Lucius blocked Zeria's blade only to fail to see Julius's incoming attack. With a devastating downward arc blow, Julius sent the dark lord crashing against a nearby wall. The stone wall crumbled, threatening to crush Lucius under a pile of rubble. Blood was seen below the wreckage slowly covering the floor.

"Is it over?"

Julius asked with relieved expression on his face. Soon after, the floor around them began to tremble and the rubble covering Lucius began to move. From within it, Lucius emerged, seeming seriously wounded, though his face showed the opposite. He was surrounded by a dark aura that intensified as the feelings resolving around him grew, he was using Zeria's hatred for him as a power source, feeding his cruelty.

"Ah yes, hate me more....the more you hate, the stronger I'll become!!"


Julius sighed disappointed seeing that Shenorai was not here. He was starting to lose faith witnessing how each and every single one of his attempts to strike this ruthless tyrant down failed.

Suddenly, from the puddles of blood six zombies emerged. Their fleshes was rotten, torn apart exposing their ribs, part of their skull, the bones of their arms and legs. Their mouths were dripping blood and the breathed poisonous air.
 
Zeria backed up and covered her mouth.

"Damnit! There's no way I can stop hating him! And if I don't, he gets stronger!"

She looked away, shadowing her face.


"I'd be better off not in this battle...I only cause more problems..."

Then she snapped. No, it wasn't her fault. Lucious was the one bringing pain and sorrow to them all. Not her! She rose to her feet, a black aura radiating off of her. Her eyes were now crimson red and she had the Lion Heart and Hellfire Blade in hand.

"You hurt Julius...you hurt Shen...you hurt FFGuy...you hurt Arthvader...and you've tried to hurt me........you'll never be forgiven! Now stop playing games with these damned zombies and fight like a man!"

Zeria ran at the zombies, ready to hack them down.
 
Lucius placed his left hand on his forehead nodding negatively. He smiled and then burst in laughter as soon as he heard Zeria's replies, becoming amused by her constant talking.

"My dealing with you?! Nah, I have better things to do. Let my pawns handle you"


Lucius then turned his attention to Arthvader, and charged towards him swinging his weapons like a madman. As soon as he got close enough, Lucius jumped and landed near Arthvader, preparing to unleash a barrage of non stopping attacks. He swung the blade on his right hand towards Arthvader's neck from above while swinging his scythe in a upward arc from the left.
 
Arthvader just managed to dodge Julius's attack. After stepping back several feet from Lucious, he told Zeria to back off.

Arthvader "ZERIA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! STAND BACK. I MEAN IT THIS TIME!!!!!"

Arthvader, angry at what Lucious has done to everyone, started releasing his energy into the form of a sword of holy light. With that sword, Arthvader also prepared his shield, and turned his attention to Lucious, with the intent to finally end this battle.

Arthvader "Lucious, Why do you have to pick on someone like Zeria? I'm sick and tired of all this. I challenge you, one on one, a fight to the finish. I'll make sure that I'm the one who'll end your life. Now, prepare to die."

Arthvader turned his attention to his allies.

Arthvader "Everyone, I want you to stay back from this battle. I can't guarantee what will happen to any of you if you were to interfere with the match."

He then charged towards Lucious, preparing to deal the first strike.
 
"Arth! You idiot! He'll wipe you off the face of the planet! I'm not going to stand by idly!"

Zeria quickly hacked through the zombies, which she knew wouldn't stay down for long, and turned back to Lucious. She whipped out a ton of shuriken and kunai, hurling them towards Lucious. Then, she brought out her guns and began shooting wildly at him, aiming for the shoulders, knees, and heart.

"I'm not going to let a comrade die because he's blinded by stupidity! Julius! Knock some damn sense into him!"
 
Seeing their master in peril, the zombies gathered before Lucius taking the direct hits and shielding the dark lord. Rotten flesh and shattered bones were scattered around them but as soon as one zombie fell, two others rose to take its place. The zombies began to overrun them, as they approached the warriors. Julius was doing his best to strike down as many as he could, but he couldn't risk to lose track of Lucius.

"Are you so eager to die Arthy? Very well I shall use on of my last spells before using my finishing moves!!
Obscurus Sanctuarium!!!"

Lucius discarded his main weapons as the blade and scythe he wielded before disappeared within the shadows. He then rose his arms and completed the incantation to use his "Dark Sanctuary" spell. This dark enchantment allowed Lucius to summon forth weapons from the darkness. Three large broadswords similar to the one Lucius wields normally and three scythes similar to the one wielded by “Death” himself. The summoned weapons will spin fiercely surrounding and protecting its master like a furious tornado of dark energies and will attack if the command is given.

Lucius abandoned his reaper attire taking the form of a dark knight clad on his normal black armor:
<o:p></o:p>


Lucius' Armor said:
~+Full Silver Body Armor:
Lucius' Armor said:
The armor is dark silver and covers Lucian torso completely. The metal is quite light, which allows Lucius to use his inhuman speed freely. Two strong iron plates cover the upper part of the chest and a red stone is attached to the center, surrounded by a golden ring and ancient runes. The armor extends to the legs, covering with light strong dark silver plates and powerful knee guard.

~+Dark Knight’s <st1:place w:st="on">Cape</st1:place>: A long red cape which partially covers Lucius’ shoulders. The cape is enchanted and was made to resist magical energies.

~+Death’s Shoulder Pads: shoulder armor given to Lucius by Death himself. This piece of equipment boosts dark powers. The shoulder pads are made of pitch black silver with the shape of a Lion’s head. The Lion’s eyes are made of red rubies.

~+ Dark Lord’s Belt: Lucius’ belt was made of leather and covered with dark silver chains. A red stone was attached to the center of the belt.

~+Boots of Endless Shadows: these boots were made with the strongest leather, enchanted with the darkest of spells and infused with hatred and evil. The boots boost the user’s magical abilities but changes all his spells to dark.

He hovered before Zeria and Arthvader with a malicious expression on his face. As if he were pulling the invisible strings of a puppet, Lucius guided his weapons and ordered them to attack Zeria, Arthvader and Julius. A scythe and a broadsword was sent hurling to Zeria while Julius had to duel with the other deadly pair of sword and scythe. The remaining weapons spun around Arthvader surrounding him. Julius successfully deflected and shattered the weapons that were sent towards him. The sword and scythe that were previously destroyed reformed once again and remained hovering behind Lucius.


 
"Lucious! You god damn bastard! Why won't you stop using your damned zombie minions and fight like a true warrior?! Are you that scared?!"

Zeria knew she probably shouldn't taunt Lucious like this, but she needed to get him distracted, that way he wouldn't go after Arth or Julius.

"And what about Shenorai? Don't you realize she's way over there out of sight, shaking as she holds that staff?"

Zeria hoped that she'd be able to strike Lucious if he got distracted by Shenorai, and launched herself up at him, swinging in an elegent motion packed with power.
 
Lucius landed safely on the floor as his weapons remained hovering around him. He turned his sight to Zeria who was attempting to mock him. Lucius smiled while closing his eyes, seeming that he found her comments quite amusing. He tighten his fists while staring to the floor and the dark aura around him intensified, with opposing element to both Arthvader and Julius which were light, Zeria's element was aligned to darkness as well. He rose his right eyebrow and smiled confidently after redirecting his attention to Zeria.

"Bold words of a rebellious child....you should learn how to behave properly in front of your elders."

The swords and scythes around him blocked Zeria's attacks preventing her sword from landing on Lucius. His eyes were pale blue now, he was growing tired of fighting and was starting to cherish the idea of being temporarily destroyed. Even in his defeat, he would try all means to take them down alongside with his fortress. He took a deep breath almost as if he were absorbing the hatred emanated from Zeria's soul.

"Shenorai...she has already decided my fate. She won't even dare to speak to me anymore...and now....prepare for one of my finishing moves....No Mercy....the countdown begins now....10.....9......7...."



Lucius took one of the hovering broadswords, holding with both hands, and charged towards Zeria. While he counted backwards he unleashed his hatred on Zeria, swinging his blade wildly as the other weapons around them spun around the two warriors.
