Vampire with a soul

Lucia floated in front of the 4 people and 2 divinities.

"I have come to ask for assistance again. Vante was not pleased when I entered the spirit realm to rescue an innocent soul from him, and in vengeance, he has summoned the dark god Zophar from my home dimension, and the dark being Lavos that rules this dimension to defeat me in a concentrated effort. Can you help me?"

Eyes widened. This blue haired girl apparently got on the bad side of some rather powerful people.

OOC:I'm not going to post any responses to that question. You make your own decisions.

OOC: Bye, Iz! Thanks for the final, er, "vote of confidence."

Somehow, I have a feeling that Ronfar will be drinking enough for the both of you today... if that's even possible!

Loki watched Lucia as she faced them, suspended in the air by some divine force.

= Just like Freya ... =

He expanded his mental link to the floating goddess.

= Why? =

*looks at the master list*
Hmm, I thought I was going to be a sidekick...Well, if at all possible, could that happen?

Whoo, I like making Magus confused, I get to use lots of question marks ;P. Hmm, how to feel about a place that was your home, but you abandoned in its time of need...

EDIT: Time to come up with votes that could create an interesting scene...

Votes:
Ronfar
Lucia
Tseng
Rena Lanford
Laguna Loire
Jun
Cloud Strife
--------------------------

Magus entered his room in the Palace. It was full of books. It was full of little trinkets. It was full of memories.

"It's wonderful! It's just like I remembered it, so familiar. It's hard to understand just how such a magnificent place could simply be destroyed..."

"Ah yes," Began Alfador, "But mother had her own plans, didn't she?"

"Indeed. Just think, if she hadn't been pulled in by the lure of power, none of this would have happened. I'd still live here...and...the others... The others would still live."

"You don't know that for sure. Life has a funny way of creating balance. One problem is solved, so another one takes its place. Just looking at your own life, you see how true it is."

Magus moves across the room, and sat in a small chair. "I don't remember it all. When I split from you, I locked away most of these memories with you. I don't know what was special about this place."

"Well, where you're sitting now, that was your favourite place to sit. You'd just stay there, and talk with your cat, the real Alfador. You'd look out the window, watch the people go by. It was here that Schala voiced her concern about mother. It was here that you thought about everything that was happening."

"Yes." Magus felt comforted by the memories. "I remember now, this was the one spot where I didn't have to live up to anyone's expectations. Here I was myself, here alone."

Magus looked out the window and imagined he saw the people of the once-great land known as Zeal walking by, living their lives. If he hadn't abandoned them, they might have walked there still.

So we'll go no more aroving, so late into the night,
Although the heart be still as loving, and the moon be still as bright.

Meow Meow Meow Meow...

OOC: Gonna try a little twist here. ^^;;

---

"Nu?" A small blue head poked around the corner of the hallway behind them.

"Wh-who's th-there...?" the mage asked. A soft "Nu?" replied...

Sylph stepped forward, sword drawn. "That's something new... never seen one of those before... doesn't look too dangerous, but ya never know..."

The mage slowly approached the blue creature. It slowly approached him, as well. "Nu? Nununu?"

The two approached each other, the creature staring into the mage's eyes as Vivi did the same. Seems docile enough!

Wrong.

"NUNUNUNU!" the creature leaned its head back and whipped it forward at the mage. Upon impact, Vivi was sent hurtling back towards the sealed door, slamming into it on impact... he collapsed on the ground shortly after.

"Vivi!! Ya okay!?" Sylph shouted at his incapacitated friend.

"NUNUNUNUNUNUNUNUNUUUUU!!" the creature screamed in fury as it charged the mage again in his critical state. But Sylph wasn't going to let this thing have its way. With blade in hand, he stepped in front of the unconscious mage and stood guard.

"Bring it on..."

"NUNUNUNUNUNU!"

The warrior stepped forward and swung his mighty broadsword at the creature, slicing in perfectly in two. The monster screamed in pain as it slowly dissolved into a puddle of ooze and eventually vaporized into thin air...

Sylph ran to the mage. He was still unconscious, and he had no way of reviving him... he knew he should have spent more time researching Dryad's Revivify spell! He'd have to enlist someone else's help...

Lifting the mage onto his back, the warrior set out in search of someone with restorative abilities...

---

OOC: Poor Vivi, got attacked by a Nu and his HP dropped to 1. Someone help him! ^^

Lenneth heard Loki and nudged him again.

=Loki, I was already thinking about that, but... thank you for finishing it.=

She listened as Lucia told them what was up. She swallowed as she put together the prospect. Two dark powers, possibly three.

The odds of anyone walking out of here alive could be counted as slim to none. Lenneth rather wanted to see that future she had decided on come to fruitition - she couldn't let herself, Tagami, or anyone else down - and she only had one option then.

Besides, it had been her efforts of which had helped saved them not so long ago, was it not?

She looked down at Loki when he asked 'Why?' ...

She shook her head. "No matter what Loki decides, I am going to help you."

------
Though I may be taking a quick offline break for food and sleep ....

My brain is screaming at me with senselessness... not to mnetion my typing is getting atrocious now. So, in about 10-15 min. I'm hopping offline for about an hr. ...

Edit: I'm outta here for now. Hopefully be abck around 6pm.

Loki-wolf shrugged offhandedly, his long, silver-blue fur blowing in the violent wind.

= I will go along with Lenneth. I need no reasons to do what I decide to do.
I merely thought asking why was a commonly done action. =


He winked wolfishly.

= And I would still like to know more. Your enemies ... they must be powerful, obviously.
It is very interesting to me. =

EEP....but hey, I have the pre-masamune right here, don't I?

(Kay, it's time for one of my famous fight scenes. I'm a little rusty since I haven't updated my 'DarkKnight' fic in a LOONG time, but I'll show you guys why Efli wanted me on his team.)

Dias tried to avoid an argument with his wife but found it hard to concentrate....behind her he saw the person he'd been looking for...Cloud Stryfe, a true swordsman.

"Dias are you even listening to me!?" Rena demanded and Dias gulped.

"Can this wait just a second, Rena?" Dias asked. Rena gaped at him and looked behind her to see Cloud Stryfe apparently waiting for Dias to make his move. She spun back around on him and found him holding the red ruby blade for her to take. "This is more important to you than our marriage?!" She demanded.

Dias had no answer for her.

Rena snatched up the blade in tears. "I should have known it would end this way!" She cried. "I hate you Dias!" She screamed and ran off.

Dias looked at the ground. He wasn't sure what had just happened. All he had done was ask for a minute to deal with an opponent. If he defeated Cloud he'd be a shoo in for the victory in this tournament."

Cloud sneered. "I heard you're one of the best swordsman around here. I hope the rumors aren't wrong."
-----------------
Dias drew his sword and shouted. "Light, Come forth!" and his sword flared blue. Cloud, unlike Randi or any of his other opponents seemed unimpressed.

Cloud drew his massive sword as well. It was adorned with jewels that Dias recognized as materia.

"Braver!" Cloud started and leapt into the sky and brought his sword down with amazing speed. Dias barely had time to react. He back flipped out of the way.

Clouds sword smashed into the ice and Cloud quickly lunged straight at Dias. Dias parried and was knocked to his knees with the power of Clouds assault. "C'mon, Dias! Give me some fun!" Cloud yelled.

Dias roared in frustration and sent a beam of light at Clouds chest. Cloud ran thru it, ignoring the power that hammered his body and jammed his sword into Dias shoulder. "Climhazzard!" Dias screamed in pain as the Jenova enhanced swordsman pulled his massive sword thru his left shoulder, tearing thru bone and sinew alike. Dias ignored the pain and lashed at Cloud with the sword of light. "Light technique:!" Dias yelled, trying to ignore his ruined shoulder. "Ran Ran Kikidan!" He sent an inferno of blue flames at Cloud who simply batted them away as if they were nothing at all.

And then Dias realized. He wasn't going to win this one... He was going to...

Dias shook the thought from his head. Dias leapt into the air above Cloud and brought his sword down in the headsplitter technique. Cloud side stepped and lashed at Dias who landed and ducked under the fury of slashes. Dias kicked Cloud's feet out from beneath him and knocked the swordsman onto the icy blood stained. Dias stabbed at Cloud and ran his sword thru Clouds midarm, nearly cutting off his right arm. Cloud kicked him in the face knocking him back. Dias slashed again and scorched the ground as Cloud rolled just in time to avoid being decapitated.

Cloud grinned. "That's better! Now lets make this more interesting!" The dark red jewel on his sword glew brightly and the sky suddenly went dark. "It's called a summon and I'd say that you have about a minute to defeat me."

Dias ran at Cloud and slammed his sword into Clouds blade. The two stood off, favoring their good arms. The snow was bright red as the two best swordsman of their time slashed and parried.

Dias was begining to win, but he was running out of strength and Cloud seemed to have unlimited power....and that's when the fire came out of the sky...
-----------------
This is going to sound wierd, but I have to bow out of this tournament. I really don't want to but I have no choice. My work schedule this weekend will not allow me to compete any further. I seriously didn't expect to get this far and I only hope that you have all enjoyed my antics as much as I have yours. If you could, please vote for me and re-frain from giving me any reversals. I'd rather bow out than be voted out for being a no-show in the final rounds.

I'll soon post my final bit with Dias Flac, and then I'll be in for a bit as an observer so that I can finish the story I started with Rena and Dias.

I'm sorry to do this...I really don't want to but I have no choice. Thanks alot and I'll be waiting at the next tourney.

Representing the home of the infamous Loin, Final Fantasy Apocalypse

What I've learned in Survivor Today:

1)The battle with the Time Devourer from Chrono Cross is alot more interesting when it's being fought in survivor

2)SO2's Dias Flac makes a good replacement for The Slayers Gourry Gabriev.

Nothing to say, just casting an R-vote for Lucia. I'll cast the rest of my votes later.

OOC: Aw, Dias! Another one bites the dust, eh? Too bad, your story was really interesting.

Oh, well, on the upshot, at least that gives me one character I won't feel guilty about voting for.

One attack vote to Dias Flac.

I'll work it into the story later if I can; right now, our characters aren't even close together...

Vampire with a soul

Lucia chose to explain things out loud. It wasn't fair to the mortals to leave them out of the conversation.

"Zophar, the God of Destruction in my home dimension, was banished long ago by my big sister, Althena. Unfortunately, when she did so, she reduced the world she was on to ashes. And it ended up looking alot like this." She gestured at the snow and ice around them.

"Zophar returned later, and it was my turn to fight him on a different planet. I could have banished him as Althena did, but to do so would have destroyed that planet as well. So I let him defeat and absorb me. Fortunately, mortal heroes" Lucia blushed a bit here, "fought Zophar to save me, and their world. And thus he was defeated again."

"Lavos is a less evolved form of the Time Devourer I fought two days ago. I don't think he'll be able to absorb me again, but he retains immense destructive power. Enough to destroy a planet. He too was defeated by mortals, however. Apparently."

"Vante is the strongest of the 3. He was able to enter a mortal being, and force him to do terrible things. The mortal gained the power to shatter even my magical shields. Had the mortal he possessed not had the strength of will to slay himself, he might well have defeated me. The power of creation might have slain him, but I wasn't about to try it where it could kill the mortals. I later dueled Vante myself in the spirit realm, to fight for the warrior's soul. While I did manage to save it, he left me with quite the sword wound to remember him by. And even now he plots revenge. I do not know if he has been defeated before."

Eyes continued to widen as Lucia outlined what she knew of the enemy.

OOC: Once again, I'm not posting responses for anyone.

Marle sat in front of the Mammon Machine, though being there was usless, something had her tightly attached to it. "It feels like he's calling me back..." Marle pulled out the journal she had found earlier and fumbled with the pages. "ugh.. What does this say!" She cried in frustration at the weird mix of symbols which concluded the journal.

Marle looked up to the Mammon Machine, "Both the Mammon Machine and my pendant a made from the dreamstone... The Mammon Machine draws it's energy from Lavos..." Marle sighed. "This doesn't make sense! Zeal can't exist without Lavos' power! Lavos must be here..." She eyed the room, as if she could feel his pressence pushing down on her. "The Mammon was built to harness power from Lavos..."

You think too much...

"I don't understand... It's all too confusing." She slumped and looked up at the lifeless machine.

The answers have always been with you...

Marle looked at the pendant in her hand then the ancient stone which had watched time pass tucked away in the Machine. "If the machine could activate my pendant... There must be a way to activate the machine..."

Um...

OOC: MR: Yikes...aughh...hmm, no stories have a happy ending, do they? Well...I'll see you off anyways. At least you being here brought the drunken fest that was supposed to be known as a "wedding"...^_~ Not to mention Lucia pole dancing, Ghaleon, Lenneth and Laguna belting out "Eyes on Me", Marle, Vivi and Mizuki forming a kick line, and Lenneth telling Loki she thought he was cute...^_^ Heh, a lot happened in that round, no? Well...see you back as a sidekick...hopefully, anyway.

Death of Dias Flac

A beam of fire rained out of the sky and the last thing that Dias saw before he entered his own hell was Cloud grinning and vanishing.

All around him wnet red and he fell to his knees under the assault of Bahamut Zero.

And he was surprised to find that as you near death, you truly do see your life flash before your eyes...

Or at least, a part of your life.
---------------

He saw himself, as a child, running thru the shingo forest with Rena...and he realized that this was him the day before his parents and sister had been killed by bandits.

The last day before he spent the rest of his life un-happy.

"You didn't have to die." Came a familiar voice.

Dias realized it was...Claude?

"No, it's not Claude. I'm just some part of your sub-concious that is trying to keep your mind busy while you are torn apart by an attack by the dragon god Bahamut Zero. I just happen to sound like Claude...wonder why that is?"

"I don't know either." Dias muttered and watched in horror as his family was slaughtered again by the bandits. Watched himself hide while they killed his sister.

"Oh, you do. That's why I don't know it. Between the two of us we know everything about your mind. But if I don't know it, that means you do."

"Can we not play these games?" Dias angrily asked Pseudo-Claude.

"Well if you want, I can take away this delerium you're fortunate enough to be in and let you feel what's happening to your body...but that wouldn't be good. It's going to be another....ohhh, I'd say 15 minutes before you actually die. And in that 15 minutes you have to make a few choices."

"What? Do I have to choose between heaven and hell?" Dias growled. He should be arguing about his dying. He'd always beaten the odds, why not now? But he was too busy. Watching as he wasted his entire life trying to be a bad-ass swordsman.

"No, that's not in your hands or mine. Not at this point." Psuedo-Claude said.
-------------------
Give me a second and I'll finish Dias death. Damn, I've come to love this character over the past week. I'm going to miss him alot.
