FFO Survivor: Ghaleon

And then... it got weird

OOC: We're all too depressed!

------------

What...? Back in the snow? How did that happen? And Zeal... destroyed? Was it one of Ronfar's experiments?

Or, perhaps, that giant column of half-formed smoke in the sky? Its power signature is almost the antithesis of Althena's... perhaps this is that Zophar being Lucia mentioned? The one I am to eventually fight?

"And Ghaleon, how I've waited to pay you back for betraying me."

Or perhaps, to his way of thinking, that I have already fought?

Ronfar...! Where is he?

"Ronfar! Ronfar!"

Oh... there... passed out in the snow. I suppose it is almost lucky that that other beast's fire-bombs have warmed the environs, else he might perish from the cold alone.

Another energy signature... this one... too familiar.

Izlude.

Or whatever was possessing him. Good. I shall enjoy evening the score.


"Lucia! What is the name of the beast who possessed Izlude?"

"I am called Vante, worm."

"Well, then, Vante Worm, have at you!"


------------

OOC: More coming soon. Let me take Vante, okay? Please?

Y'know, a fight like this should please Keir and Ayin - this is going to be a LOT of energy released. With Lenneth & Loki with Lucia (the three "L"s ... XD)... *sits and ponders*

I'm thinking about this, really. Ah ha! if anything, I can use something...

------
Lenneth wasn't wholly impressed. Loki simly yawned - he'd been there, done that. He looked at Lenneth and arched a lupine brow in expectation.

"Defiler of souls and vile creatures, prepare to meet your holy judgement!"

=Nice, but not quite the lecture you gave me.=

Marle placed her hands on Vivi's chest, "Cure Two." The sparkling light of the spell surrounded her and the mage. "That should do it..."

Vivi stirred, "Ma-Marle?"

"You took a hit from Nu." Marle smiled, "I know what it feels like... They hurt, but luckily they aren't deadly."

"Wh-where are w-we?" Vivi blinked. The Mammon Machine was gaint to his small size.

"This is the hall of the Mammon Machine." She pointed up to the massive machine, "That's it there..."

Sylph gawked at the the Mammon, "What is it?"

"It harnesses power from Lavos..." Both Vivi and Sylph looked at her with questionable expressions. "It's a long story I'll explain..." Marle took a deep breath and began, "Lavos was a creature that fell from space in 65 billion BC in my demension. He lives under the earth, slowly becoming stronger..." She paused, explaining Zeal may help a bit too. "Dreams and future aspirations of Zeal were formed through and anicent rock called the Dreamstone. It has great power. Through it and the power of Lavos these dreams turned into Zeal, and magic was born." Marle held out her pendant, this is one of the few magic gifted items that remain of Zeal. It has been passed down through generations of my ancestors, first Schala... daughter of Queen Zeal..." Marle held the pendant close to her. "It was crafted by one the great Gurus of Zeal and truly has great power... I don't know how to use it like Schala did... but do you see in the Mammon Machine that red stone? It part of the Dreamstone and-"

"What is it? Why did you stop?" Asked Sylph.

"Something is wrong!" She cried. "He's coming!!"

"Wh-what is?!"

The Mammon Machine began to glow, it's life force was being fueled once again. "No!" Marle jumped up frantically, "He's been summoned!"

"W-who?" Vivi asked in a worried tone.

"Lavos! I need to do something! I've faced him before!" Marle grabbed chest and fell on her knees, "I can feel him inside me... his power is so strong.." The Mammon Machine and Marle's pendant began to throb in a pulsating light. "ugh... it's like what coming through the Mammon Machine is being pushed through me..."

Lenneth thought a moment about ehr opponents.

Is this what happens to power when emotions are dead? But aren't emotions troublesome things which lead people astray and cause pain?

Certainly sadness and pain would exist forever, but if a god or goddess had no emotion, how could they care for their people? These three entities were prime examples of power gone awry. There was no hope nor help for them, was there?

You'd be the fool to show compassion to them, Lenneth. Let not thy heart guidde thy blade astray, lest you destroy all of humanity's hope.

The light glimmered off the blade of Glance Reviver and suddenly fell dim. Dark. "Wha-?"

The winds whirled about her a moment and then about the blade. Wings formed on her back as the blade darkened into the familiar look of Levantine. As her power dimnished the sword's would grow. A much safer bet on the outcome of this battle.

"For humanity's freedom, and the lives of many, you will be obliterated." She brought the sword to bear, waiting for Lucia's move.

Cloud Stryfe
FFO Survivor - Cloud


Cloud saw destruction raining down on the world, he saw the dark god, Vante, calling forth two powerful beings. Then...the knife, which he pulled from Dias’s belt, started to glow.

At this point, Masa, Mune, and Doreen showed up. And they appeared before Cloud.

"You cannot wield the Mastermune yet. You have not the purity within. The darkness within you must be...dealt with."

Cloud opened his eyes. "What...the...hell?" Cloud was within his own mind...
Cloud walked towards what looked like the Shinra Mansion, feeling a great evil radiating from that place. Cloud opened the door.... To find himself in the Northern Crater.

"What the hell is this? It’s like a dream...but so real." Cloud walked onward...dread growing within him.

“JENOVA!!! Where are you?!?!” Cloud yelled. “Come on out you demon!!”

Suddenly, A voice rang out in the darkness. It sounded like what Cloud imagined a demon must…but in reality…Jenova was a demon..Wasn’t she?

“Cloud…My true Son…that Sephiroth…He is nothing…You…. You my son…Are better than him in every way..…. Join me…we can become one with the planet that has shunned me! We shall destroy all those who have turned their back on me!”

“Jenova…. I will not let you take me over again…. I shall destroy you ONCE AND FOR ALL!”

With this, Cloud ran at the monstrous being in front of him. “JENOVA!!! GET OUT OF MY HEAD!!!!” Cloud slashed the monstrous being, fury growing within him. He hit her, only to lift his blade and hit her again. He was in a blind rage. “You…made me…..hurt…Tifa…” he breathed harshly

“You……made me….kill Dias”

“YOU CANNOT BE ALLOWED TO DO THIS AGAIN!!! I SHALL PUT AN END TO YOUR EVIL!!!” With this final phrase, Cloud jumped into the air. Just as he hit her, A beam of light radiated from the blade in his pocket…giving power to his sword.

He slashed her one more time….and at the moment his sword hit the evil demon’s flesh…she disappeared. Simply…disappeared….

Cloud heard a voice…it sounded like that Doreen girl. “Cloud!!! Come back out!! Jenova….She abandoned your body!! She’s out here with the rest of them….We need you, Wielder of the Masamune!!!”

And with this, Cloud disappeared, and found himself, back on the icy tundra that Zeal used to float above…watching the three dark gods, and the dark goddess reap havoc on the contestants.

“I must do something about this…” Cloud said aloud.

“I think we can make that possible….” Three voices said in unison, as Masa, Mune, and Doreen appeared in front of him.



Over to you AngelAlex

OOC: With the miracle of... er... just saying so, we can zoom back to the moment right before that happened! ^^;;

So.. moments before Zophar eats Zeal for lunch...

---

"Marle!" The mage ran to her side. "Wh-what's happening!?"

Her pendant began to glow brighter... as it pulsed, the ground beneath them began to shake... at first it was just a slight tremor, but slowly the quakes grew more powerful...

"We're in trouble... something's DEFINETELY not right here!" Sylph shouted over the rumblings, now growing louder. "We've got to get out of here!"

Vivi tried to help Marle stand, but the shaking floor wasn't exactly helping. Marle grimaced in pain as her amulet suddenly turned from the pulsing blue to a sudden blood red colour...

The structure was beginning to collapse. There wasn't much time...!

Sylph shouted, running over to the two. "I'll get us out of here! I'll teleport us to safety!" He began to chant a spell as Vivi held onto Marle's hand, trying to support her.

Small chunks of debris began falling from the ceiling as the hallway behind them began to collapse. Sylph's chanting grew louder as the magic began to take effect... the pendant pulsing a darker red than before...

The last thing Vivi heard was Marle screaming in pain.

After that, silence...

---

The mage opened his eyes... the three were back outside in the blizzard. Sylph was standing there, ready to help the mage up, but Marle...

She lied on the ground, clutching her pendant.

"M-Marle! Marle! W-wake up!" Vivi shouted. It was to no avail...

"Curaga!"

The pulsing energies passed through her, and with a flash of blue energy, she awoke.

Vivi was overjoyed that his friend was alright. "You're okay! O-oh, I w-was so worried..."

Sylph wasn't as optimistic. "Uh, guys..." He turned to point behind the two. "We're not alone..."

Behind them a gigantic spined demon loomed in the distance, slowly rising out of the earth...

Marle clutched her pendant. "Lavos..."

---

Whew, is that okay, Terra? I sure hope so... ^^;;

We now return you to your current timeframe...

And just for the record, my R-vote goes to Marle.

YAY!! *is back*

And turning into Maijigoo as we speak ... =/

Luna-san: I know, I was just kidding ^_^;;

LMAO!! Team "L"! XDDD

Ooh, I love apoclyptic battles

===

= Ah, yes; the Valkyrie we know and love.

... These creatures have absolutely no style whatsoever.=


Loki's lupine form tensed in anticipation. Things were about to get very, very interesting. He grinned, showing all of the icewolf's sharp teeth. Impressive looking, but Loki knew Fenrir would not have been able to handle this.

= Now, what form to take ...?
Well, should put on a show. =


The form of the massive wolf wavered and contracted within itself (startling a few of the warriors who hadn't been let into the mental communication) as Loki shifted back to his original human form, in gilded turquoise and black fabrics, crimson body armor and yes, that jewelled headband.

"Well then, shall we deliver them to the plane of non-existence?" he said, turning to Lenneth with an assured grin.

===

Whoo! The brain is still fried O_o

EDIT: LMAO!! "been there, done that" - gotten the t-shirt? XD

All-purpose Magical-girl!

It's time to make this body useful.

Doreen, Masa, and Mune, turned to look at Mizuki, floating in the air.

We don't want to kill our contestants... but we would like to keep this fight going on for a while... time to give you some new powers to go with your new form! Go and introduce yourself...

// Did someone speak to me!? //

Mizuki only found herself travelling involuntarily towards the monstrous entities... and forced down onto the snow-covered ground.

"What? Stop! Who...?"

A strange glowing aura surrounded her... and appeared around Zophar, Lavos, Vante, and Jenova.

You're going to heal them, if they get hurt.

Mizuki could feel some of her regular magical power drained... and also some of her own life-force...

// Wait! I don't want this! Stop it! STOP IT! //

You're the one who was bitter about serving your would-be allies... it's your loss!

Doreen's voice entered the minds of all the fighters... "That girl is being used. Her dreams have turned to nightmares, and have made her vulnerable to possession... her life force will be fed to your enemies, restoring their energy."

From there, it was an open path...

---------

R-vote... goes to Leon. Sort of random... but I think a kid who casts spells with books is pretty darn cool.

Crystal Sword
FFO Survivor: Ghaleon

The plot thickens... in third-person! Lunar spoilers, but if you've read the rest...

OOC: *Begins listening to Ghaleon's Theme and Lucia vs. Zophar - not at the same time, of course*

-----------

"Dragons of Lunar, I SUMMON THEE!!!"

The four colored beings swooped in from the darkness between the worlds - then gasped collectively at the sight in front of them.

Ruby in particular was shocked. "Aw, crap! Not Zophar again! I thought we did this already!"

"Ah, the little red dragon. So, we meet again. You shall not be leaving unharmed this time!"

Ghaleon stood his ground while the dragons wheeled uncertainly.

"Dragons! Follow Lucia's commands! I relinquish my command to her."

Nall laughed. "All right! No more orders from him!"

The Dragons soared off to Lucia's side and awaited her command.

Ghaleon, meanwhile, turned to face the shapeless orb of terror that was Vante.

"Vante Worm! My name is Ghaleon. You possessed my companion, but you shall not find me as easy a target. I will repay you for your multiple... kindnesses. I do not fear you."

"You should. And my name is Vante, NOT Vante Worm."

"Oh, but it fits you so well."

"All right, Ghaleon. Let us see if you fight as well as you boast."

The shapeless entity formed into the persona of a dark warrior, complete with a sword that extended longer than most lances. Ghaleon considered drawing his own blade, but decided against it due to the length of Vante's blade.

Vante made the first move, diving toward the mage with his blade held in front. Ghaleon nimbly soared over the dive with a magically-enhanced leap and hovered in the air, chuckling. He retaliated with a bolt of lightning which caught the dark being square on the nape of the neck. Vante seemed unfazed, however. He spun his sword, creating a rift of evil intent which spread from his position and threatened to draw in everything in the immediate vicinity. Ghaleon dropped to the ground, fired an explosive ball of magic onto the snow before the rift and allowed the shockwave to throw him clear of the rift.

"Very good, Ghaleon. I'm impressed. But you will still lose eventually."

"I have only begun to fight!"

And with that, Ghaleon drew his sword and fired from it a magical ray of light. The ray pierced the rift, sealing it with a blast that threw Vante spinning into the sky.

The dark god laughed and focused his energy, ultimately resolving into five identical, shapeless beings. They all flew straight at the mage, faster than he had anticipated. Ghaleon leaped out of the way, barely avoiding the assault, but the five manifestations of Vante passed through a magical echo of his presence. Soon, having read his thoughts in this, they formed into shapes which Ghaleon recognized, with a start, from his dream.

Nash, Mia, Kyle, Jessica... and Alex.

Nall stared in shock at this terrible mockery.

Ghaleon struggled not to submit to his own uncertainty and self-doubt. No. Not now. I cannot submit now. Vante laughed as the mage fought with his own soul.

"All right, Ghaleon, now try and stop me!"

The five eerie specters all attacked Ghaleon in all-too-familiar ways. The Alex manifestation and the Kyle manifestation attacked with their trademark blade arts as Mia and Nash rained down fire, ice and lightning. Ghaleon struggled under the onslaught but did not fall. He sent magical attacks and sword slashes furiously into the foe and watched triumphantly as the Alex manifestation fell to its knees. Then the dark Jessica muttered a healing litany and undid all the damage.

Ghaleon took a step back. I almost won before. I can win now. Just... focus. They are evil. They are everything you hate. Focus! He now turned his attack to Jessica. Soon she had fallen, and he realized with gratification that these "children" lacked any means of healing. He turned his attention then to Mia, who fell even more quickly, then Nash, Kyle and finally Alex.

He breathed heavily. I... won...

"Nicely done, Ghaleon. Now experience the true extent of my power."

And then a shock ran through his entire frame as he dropped to his knees. Lucia stared in horror as Ghaleon stood up once more and raised his eyes. The scarlet red irises were now vacant white, as were the pupils.

Ghaleon had become Vante.

Not again....

Another soul had been defiled by the shadow that was Vante.

No...

Her memories of last night, the anguish as she was used...

This... this cannot be!


Leave here Lenneth. Do not fight for the pathetic toys of the gods.

Never.... never will I give up for the hope of life and humanity!

Où est la Lumière?

Tatsuya and Sydney had been attacked several times ever since they have met.

This place was colder and and harder to survive than both of them thought. Never had they thought that conspiracy happen. Never had they thought that this tourney was not just a game of the strongest. They were wrong.

Tatsuya and Sydney did need each other to survive this place. This place was no heaven. It was sheer hell. But they know, they had to survive to get to the other side.

For Tatsuya, he had to survive to save Maya. His love who died in fron of him, who wanted him to forget it all, who wanted to Tatsuya to lead a happy life. But Tatsuya couldn't. Tatsuya could never be happy without her. He was a sinner, a sinner to be punish eternally. But he would not want to die here. Not here. He wanted to survive. To see the light. To prove to everyone that he could still make it without getting involved in the conspiracy.

For Sydney, he had lots of burden on him. He knew his mission for this tourney. He knew he had to complete them. But such an environment did not allow him to. He was constantly backstabbed and betrayed. But of course, to Sydney, that only add more fun to the game. To him, the harder the challenge, the more fun he got.

This two man who had never met one another before were beginning to rely on one another. They began to realise that to live, they had to stick together. They began to realise that there are not many people out there who would help them any further.
They had to help themselves.

Tatsuya and Sydney came to the teleport point. Finally, they could get to the other side. The side that may be heaven or even more hellish than this side. But they did not care. To survive was their main goal now, and survive they will.

"You ready?" Tatsuya asked his ally.

Sydney smiled, sharpening his claws.
"More ready than I ever could"

"Let's go kick some ass than."
