This is becoming quite the epic story. Keep it up, all!

Hey Crystal Sword, Minty could have meant Vincent. I'm standing down there too, you know.

Talk about wishful thinking...

Wouldn't EITHER of you like to know. XD Mwahahaha...

Oooo I have a headache. *finishes off a second peanut butter & apricot preserves sandwich* Man... why am I so hungry today? I pack of ramen, half a cantaloupe, a bag of popcorn, two sandwhiches, and I'm starting to feel hungry. -_-;;;; Geez...

BTW, I had no intention of originally putting Lenneth near them, I was actually after someone else. o_O; Not MY fault people move...

El Diablo del hielo.

Randi stood where he was, trying to feel out the complex system of Mana energy he had gained in the void during the Time Devourer episode. He had managed to perform a couple tricks such as a Flame Saber and a small healing spell, but if he was going to win this, he was going to need the most important power he had ever known.

The revived Mana Sword...nothing he had seen thusfar had come close to it's power. However, it had been impossible to perform since Dryad had dissapeared with Mana on Fa' Diel. He knew he could do it with his merging with the stone, but it had proven to be a harder task than he thought.

'Mother, help me...' Randi had often talked to his mother, almost as if he was praying. He knew she was killed by the empire, but he could feel a part of her in himself.

When he said this, a single white snowflake fell into his hand.

"An omen?" he said, "Am I going to....die?"

Randi's eyes opened wide and he looked at the other contestants. "I'm not going to die, you're not going to kill me. I'LL KILL ALL OF YOU!"
____________

Yes, it's Randi's turn to go psycho, but he's not being posessed. O_o I'm sure you'll figure out what I'm doing if you haven't already.

BTW: to get in the mood for this and my next few posts, listen to
"The Oracle" form the SoM soundtrack track 37.

“What was that? I need to take your power?”

“It is the only way. I must leave this place to allow for the next level. It is my purpose.”

“I know I sound like a broken record here, but, what?”

“Look, since the beginning the Multiverse has operated on the system of the Balance. Two separate forces acting together on Existence. Now we must take it one step farther, evolve the Multiverse into something greater. As you learnt by bonding with yourself, what was once two must now become one. It is the only way to become complete. No more will Life and Death counteract each other, for now they will act as one single entity.”

“And, you have to die to do this?”

“I was created to fulfill my Task, as you were to fulfill yours. I was to take care of The Void until the time came to evolve it. It is my final Task to die for it, to bond my Essence with that of The Creator and allow the change.”

“Then, why don’t you just go to Eternity yourself?”

“I cannot. And even if I could, I could not bond with her. You are The Uniter, that is your Task, not mine. We must all die so that others might live. We must allow the evolution, and die for the higher power.”

“So, I too must die?”

“I don’t know. The Creator might have other plans for you…”

Come and get it!

What did happen to the guy in charge of refreshments? Well...he rented a helicopter. Why? He was in lust. Of course, the object of his lust, still floating in the sky, was going to notice him before he got there. He could only hope he could turn her on before he got blasted like that zombie guy.

Lucia noticed a strange flying machine coming her way that she'd never seen before. Why was it coming her way? She was curious, and let it get closer. Then, somebody yelled at her...

"Do I make you randy baby? Well? Do I?"

Lucia was confused. "Say what?"

"Do I turn you ON baby?"

Lucia got it that time. Her response was instantaneous. She put the erstwhile snack vendor in an energy ball, and banished the helicopter out of existence.

Somewhere else...

Zophar was still stinging from his last defeat. When suddenly, a helicopter came crashing down on his head.

"Damn you Lucia...I'm not a garbage dump!"

The vendor also had to be dealt with. Lucia directed the energy ball to go flying out of the sky, where it promptly hit Sephiroth on the head.

"Why must I always get hit in the head? Don't these people know how much concentration it takes to become a god?"

Everyone Else: "SHUT UP SEPHIROTH!"

In frustration, Sephiroth threw the vendor into the water. Which served as a cold shower, to...calm him down.

Sopping wet, the vendor finally returned to his stand, only to find most of the beer missing...

I guess you'd better keep reading, Baka!

Where's Krizak, anyway? I'm sure Vinny and Ghaleon want their questions answered.

*dodges gummy bears* Hey! Don't make me come over there, Loki-hamster!

I wonder if there'll be a single person who doesn't vote for me, besides maybe Cloud and Tifa?

And after all the nice things I did for all of you...

Edit: lol@Angel. Poor vendor, all he wanted was some lovin'.

Mian smiled at Ghaleon. "You don't understand. The so-called 'gods' in this tournament are not what we mean. They're not really gods, you see, but merely powerful beings from other realities. What we are offering is TRUE godhood, not over a reality, but over the entire Multiverse."

"But, why?" Ghaleon asked vemenently. "Why must you create a new god? Surely there must already be a god or two that watch over all of Creation."

"Yes, indeed there is... or rather, was."

"Was? What do you mean by was?"

"She died." Volnes had walked back down from the stands after failing to deal with Ronfar. "She died fighting the Void, and unless we find a suitable soul for ascension, the Multiverse will collapse into nothingness."

I didn't think Keir had it in him to devise such a clever lie... Ayin thought.

Sure, your characters might have more questions for these two, but asking them will be like asking a brick wall. I have to go to work, so I can no longer answer any questions.

OOC: Good grief, Angel. Taking over the reins of the humor, eh?

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

I don't buy it. These two...

"If you're so anxious to create another god, then what about you two? You both seem more than confident in your own prowess, what is stopping you from ascending to the throne yourselves?"

At a loss for words. I'm not surprised.

"Never mind. I knew you wouldn't have an answer. I am keeping an eye on you two."

I do believe I shall get back in the, er, "swim" of things at this point.

"What does all of this fighting prove, anyway?" Vincent added, standing next to Ghaleon. "Because we've held out the longest, we are more fit to become an Eternal than those who have fallen?"

Something was most definitely not right here. Hopefully, they'd be able to figure it out, before whatever it was the two Sigmas had planned was put into motion. Or was it already too late?

Vincent wasn't about to give up.

*****
Edit: Bah, thanks for telling me, Krizak...
*****

Mian looked at the two men. "We'd love to answer your questions, but this is a tournament, gentlemen. There's not much time left."

"You'll learn all you need to know once this is over..." Volnes added.

Vincent sighed and turned back to the watery sphere. He was ready.

*****

Edit: Okay, whoever wants to fight, send me a PM or something, and we'll get things organized...

Or just swing a sword at him, or whatever.

OOC:I can't always write world ending apocolypses Crystal. I have to make sure I can do all genres. From humor straight on to drama. Anyways, I may get serious in a minute, depending on how well Krizak explains himself. Unlike most, Lucia can actually ask for proof, and expect to get it. She is immortal, after all Till then, prepare for the endless parade of horny males come to ravish Lucia

Okay, this'll be the last post of this round for me, as I don't know when I'll be getting home. You all wanted to see Vante dead...

THE END OF VANTE...
---------------------------------

"So then, this is it? We'll never see face to face again?"

"That's about it Magus. I wasn't meant to live forever, no one is. That is why I must do this."

"I'm glad I got to meet you Vante. You've helped me see that it's not what you do that counts, it's why you do it."

"You know, I think we're a lot alike, the two of us. We started out with noble ideas of what we could attain. We both were plunged into lives of hatred and sorrow. We were both capable of controlling The Void, and both learned to resent its powers."

"Yes Vante. We were both cast in a devious light. We went about our business in an evil way, yet we both had pure intentions. I don't think anyone could ever truly understand what we went through."

"Magus, a thought just occurred to me. We are so alike, perhaps it wasn't a coincidence. Look at us, together here, working as one to save the Multiverse. We were destined to work together, right from the beginning. I see now how far back this day stems. This will be the end of our great journey together, and I will miss it."

"It may sound silly, but we were both friends and enemies at the same time. Its that fact that makes this difficult. I now lose my great nemesis, as well as my only friend."

"Had we only known it would come to this...

"Things might have turned out so much different if only we'd known..."

The dark lord stood tall in his final moments. "Right then Magus, it's time to do this. An Eternal cannot die, but their Essence may pass on. It is now time to end this game we play."

Vante closed his eyes and chanted. His body disappeared, and in its place stood his Essence. It smiled at Magus and then began to join with him.

"I...was...just...a...puppet...it...is...true...but...I...acted...for...what...I...believed....in..."

"Vante..."

"Stand...tall...now...Magus...let...the...glorious...darkness...of...The...Void....light...your...way..."

He was gone, and so was The Void. The Essence of Death had passed on to a new keeper, one who would now bond it to Life. Magus stood for a moment, thinking of Vante. They were so similar, it was only fitting. The Creator had taught him how to live.

Vante had shown him how to die.

Something didn't click with the explaination, but then, when was anything about this making sense? It didn't seem likely they would get answers, so she decided to return ehr focus back to the tasks at hand. She looked at Ghaleon. (OOC: )

She held out the small candy. "Here," she said, "use this if you feel your strength waning." It shimmered a bit. With a small hint of reluctance - after all, how far could trust go? - he took it.

-------
R-vote: Ghaleon

With that, I am off to track down the elusive dinner... or more like go and GET dinner. Exeter, check your PMs in a bit.
