I know its a little out of character, but Gryz is going to find some sort of cannon next round, unless of coarse, i'm aloud to keep the best weapon ever, my Big Spike.

Alas, this sibling is worse by far. For not only is she my sister, but she is... (dramatic pause) IN THE OTHER SCHOOL! She is in the diametrically opposed school to my own! HOW COULD SHE JOIN THE DARK SIDE? HOW?!?!?!?!?!

SIN

At the Gates of Hell 4

Okay, here's the last part in Zeal's epic story for this round! Booya!

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


Zeal stepped into a magnificent chamber replete with ornate magical objects, and grand bookcases full of books lining every wall. There must be a thousand books here at the very least! Zeal’s eyes seemed to glow as she reached for a random book and wrested it from its place on the shelf. Her suspicions were confirmed – it was indeed a tome of magic. She replaced it and took another from a different location, looked at it, and put it back. Pick and choose, again and again; every time the book was about magic. Talk about your reading Zeal twitched as she leafed through the yellowed pages of the book she currently held. I guess he doesn’t get out much…. But he had obviously done just that, for the place bore no sign of the Summoner’s presence, aside from the lingering presence of his dark aura.

Many of his books had writing that was illegible to Zeal, but some of them contained text she could read. “The Art of Summoning Made Easy” she read off the spine of one particularly wide book. Next to it sat “Demons for Dummies”. “Let’s see…. ‘Maniacal Magic’, ‘How to Grow Your Own Army’, ‘The 1001 Best Villan Quotes Ever’, ‘Pentagrams Are People Too’, ‘Getting Microsoft XP to Work for You’….so many books which bespeak the dark arts gathered together in one place” Zeal pondered. “Maybe this guy got picked on a lot as a kid.” As she stepped away from the bookcase, she felt her hair begin to stand on end – generally not considered a good sign. Quickly she hid behind a large chair, trying as best she could to conceal her aura from detection. But if this Summoner was powerful enough for Yume to tell her not to try combating him alone, it was probably of no use anyway.

Merely a minute after Zeal had taken refuge, a great black pit opened in the circular room’s center and a great sorcerer robed in blue and gold rose up from it, as if regurgitated from a darkness deeper than Hell (if in fact , this place was not it). Zeal heard a sniffing sound, as if he was sampling the air, trying to follow the traces of her presence. For what seemed like ages, he paced the room, the only sound a continuous sniffing and a deep breathing. He appeared to be tired, for he set his great staff against a wall and slumped down into one of the room’s high-backed chairs. With a wave of his hand, a bookcase slid along the wall to reveal a glassy rectangular surface. The Summoner began to chant a spell, pointing his finger at the panel.

“Picturus Boxus….awaken!” The panel blinked to life, and Zeal could see people on it. It was certainly some sort of magical window that would allow him to see anywhere he desired! “Channelus Changeus!” the summoner boomed again, and the picture changed to a scene of two armies doing battle on a field over a small brown oblong ball. Strangely, even after several minutes, Zeal noted that there were no casualties. The armies must be so evenly matched that neither can kill a man of the other’s side! Zeal concluded. Whatever the small brown ball was, it certainly must be an artifact of great power, no doubt something the Summoner had his eye on to snatch up when the two armies had spent their strength.

Standing up and walking away from the talking window panel, the Summoner made his way to one of his many bookcases and took out a book bound by a spiral of metal. Setting himself down again, this time with a lap-table, a bottle of ink, and a quill, he began to write, and talked as he wrote.

“Dear LiveJournal, today wuz a horrible day! Back in the real world, I had 2 prepare my W-2 tax forms, so I left to do that. While I wuz there, people maed fun ov me and said I needed to ‘take a bath’. What’s that? I swear, the dumb human pigs R always inventing new lingo – they think they R so smart! Once I finally learn how to summon Level 80 demons, they shall all feel my wrath! Ah-ha-ha-ha! Oh yeah, and Bob finally got DSL, so I’ll waste no time in teaching him how 2 becum a lord of teh Online World liek me! Who needs peepul when you have PC gamez? I meet all the gratest people I know here, and I feel exccepted too!

Anyway, when I got back online and returned to my hoem dimension just four hours ago, I was shocked to find an army of fighters and mages invading my level. The audacity of some people! They’re even trying to PK each other; how dum kan u get? Pretty soon I’ll try 2 get them with my lv. 60 demons, but I had 2 assess the damages ‘n stuff – lots ov my traps were borken. I will write in u again later to tell about a super-pritty girl today that I met who said I was sort of nice except that my hair was greasier than a potato chip. Who wood have thunk that people who were not online were so sweet 2? Haha, n e way, l4t3rz!”

This Summoner being….he’s completely delirious! Queen Zeal thought, resting her forehead on her right hand. He thinks this place is some sort of GAME or something! However, that may mean he is weak from the transport between dimensions, and that means it’s time for a challenge!

Like a shot from a vertical cannon, Zeal used a repulsor spell to send herself flying to the top of the high-backed chair she had been hiding behind. “Summoner, you shall continue your reign of darkness no longer!” she proclaimed in her best authoratative tone. “I, Zeal, Queen of Magic, have come to destroy you and your foul cause!” Her eyes seemed almost electric, and the Summoner stood up with a start, spilling his bottle of ink onto the floor.

“Hay U! What r u doing here!?” he shouted, the voice ringing like cacophonous bells in the steeple of a dark church. “U r teh lady I waz trying 2 chatting with earlier, coz I recognize ur blue hair and orange clothes! Hay, u didn’t say anything so I thought u were an enemy and I sent some demons after u, but then when I almost had u, something maed me haev a blue screen and I had to restart! Gaaaargh!” He raised his hands skyward and called to the sky in a black tongue, and demons seemed to materialize in a ring from the walls to surround Zeal.

“Not so fast!” she cried as she jumped down from the top of the chair to the center of the floor below. “Last time I was on the run, but this time, I’ve a little treat for you!” She held her arms out and started whispering words, growing slightly louder as the demons converged on her position. Suddenly, a rainbow ring radiated forth from Zeal, slowing slightly before it hit all of the demons (due to insufficient processor speed, yet again). As it passed through them, their strength was sapped and they fell writhing to the ground. “It seems that your lackies are insufficient against my succession spell” Zeal boasted, throwing an energy ball at where the largest pile of demons lay and blowing them up for added effect.

“U…u….it cannot be!” the Summoner cried. “Those r lv. 60 demons I cast 2 attack u! So many that even my 1337 processor was pushed to handle them all! But ha ha even though ur spell is strong, I know lots of r0x0ring spellz to!” Grabbing his staff from where it lay propped against the wall, he began to spin it around ever faster, fireballs flying from its head all the while. Zeal surrounded her hands with magic and batted away as many as she could, but the Summoner just increased the rate of fire. “Feel the force ov my Turbo Controller Buttonz!!!!” he cackled as a fireball slammed into Zeal’s gut and sent her flying into a bookcase. Before she could even slump down, she was hit with a veritable volley of more fireballs, each racking her to the core of her bones.

“I…I feel my strength ebbing from me!” Zeal cried, coughing and gasping for breath. As she felt herself slip away, her mind suddenly became clear, as a ray of sun boldly breaks through a barrier of clouds. Zeal……Zeal! Use the force, Zeal! the voice repeated. Zeal could only wince as she felt her arm – it had most certainly broken by an unfortunate collision with the Summoner’s bookcase. Use the force, Zeal! the voice in her mind said again. What can I do? Zeal questioned the voice. I feel my power lessening even as we speak!

Look for the cable, Zeal! The cable! It’s the small wall port right below the phone line port! Zeal looked, but she couldn’t see a ‘port’ on any of the walls. I cannot see it! And the Summoner is almost upon me! Trust your feelings, Zeal! Find it with your heart!

Scanning the room, she saw what appeared to be a black thread sprouting from the wall, right under a table, obscured by the shadows. With the last of her strength, she summoned an energy ball into her hands. The Summoner flinched, then laughed.

“With taht puny attack, u cannot even hurt me!” he laughed.

“It’s not you I’m aiming at!” Zeal shouted, mustering all her strength and awareness into this one moment, this brief slice of time. She let fly the blue sphere, past her fingers, through the legs of the surprised Summoner, and straight into the wall from which the cable protruded.

“I….I don’t know what you’re trying to do…but it won’t work! Uh…never work! I haev firewall up!” Zeal could almost taste the delicious fear creeping into his tone. She raised her good arm shakily and put her fingers together. She gave a quick snap of her fingers, and the cable fell from the wall, completely severed and spewing a shower of mystic sparks.

“NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!” the Summoner cried. “My broadband connection! U fiend! I will hunt u down over all the internet and find u 4-ever! U cannot escaep from meeeee!!!! He began to phase out of existance, his voice becoming grainy. Zeal thought she heard beeping and humming in the background, but she was not aware of her surroundings enough to percieve it clearly. “My…..my super cool level! I will haev my revenj! Or maybe I will just go back 2 Ever…..quest…..” He finally flickered from view totally. As soon as he was gone, Zeal began to feel a rumbling in the place.

Is his world falling apart without his dark presence to sustain it? Zeal thought. But she was slipping away, unable to hold on to waking thought. She thought she saw a light again, as she slipped into unconsciousness for the second time that day. But her work was done. A great evil had been vanquished, and many realms were no doubt free from Summoner’s tyrannical rule. T….thanks…Yume…. Zeal collapsed to the floor, unable to sense anything more.

Baka takes the weapon, which turns out to be ZombieExeter.

Big Spike Fun

The demon had walked directly up to Gryz, one hunched in a crazed crouching stanza, the other tall and covered in dark spikes. Drool oozed out of thier giant maws. Gryz prepared to strike. The tall demon outsteached his hand.

"Were gonna need that back sir." the tall demon pleaded, pointint at Gryz's Big Spike. "Its dungeon property, not to be removed."

Gryz looked downward at his shiny new weapon, tear forming in his eyes.

"No! I won't let you take him! He doesn't like you! Hes mine!" Gryz pouted.

The demons glanced at eachother in confusion.
"But sir?"

"No! Never! WAAAAAAA!"
Gryz echo wailed throughout the void as the large man ran into the distance, clutchin the Big Spike to his chest.

Soujiro, that- that was truly epic. Yes, worthy to be on the same pier as the Odyssey. No, higher. And what an adversary! I almost thought Zeal wasn't going to make it, there, especially when he went "1337." Brilliance!

I get the impression it's gonna take Kriz a loooong time to tally up the chaos created in this round. Don't hold your breath, amigo.

EDIT: I concur with Darkken, it's 1.45AM here and I could do with some sleep myself. Best of luck to everyone who thinks they're on the knife-edge of the round (having said that, that's probably most of the people here).

Daigohji
Sponsor: Setzer

Itchy, tasty...

"You were almost an Edge sandwich"

I don't think I could do a ZombieSetzer this time, an Amano bishonen would become invisible if he got any thinner.

I'm thinking of holding the next tourny in the first week of April at the moment, to go along with the Easter break for all you school-attending types. That's not set in stone of course, it's going to be a balancing act between how convenient the time is for people and how long the prep work (of which I think there is several times that of previous tournies) takes me. Input?

San: I think we should leave the card game as is, if that's okay. I know I was 7 points up, but we can just say Setzer got his cards back and call it even. You can keep the king of spades though, if you have a really good use for it in mind.

...I need sleep, I'm writing 'I think' every few words ... which usually means I'm not thinking ... I think.

Okay, Daigohji, I can agree with that. (Just didn't want to seem like a quitter! ) Aah... uum... well... No, I can't think of a good thing to do with the card. I'll hand it back next round.

As for the Tournament, I think just about everyone here agrees with me. DROP TRAUMA! I think that's about it for that... I can't wait for next round. I wish luck to all Sponsors left, and happy writing to all the Fallen.

Drop Trauma and KEEP Divine Touch? Yeah, right. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I had gathered that the point of these P-votes was to level the playing field, thus ensuring that the "good guys" wouldn't be the ones to win all the time.

Maybe add an Esuna-like ability. Cures one effect from your character. Only usable once, and only cures one effect. That way you could be just as cheap as trying to evade someone's Limit Break.

^^; Ouchie... I'm glad I only had ONE vote left. ^^; If I hadn't voted alot yesterday, Rydia and Edge coulda pulled a Romeo & Juliet or something.

Ewwww.... *shakes some strange mental pic*

Geez.... *pats Ex's head* ~.~ Here's to patience! *goes to save the round*

(And to go to RI to discuss something...)

Edit: My solution? Make it so Trauma and Sorrow AREN'T retroactive! THAT is what's so unbalancing - any R-votes used before someone hits you by it nullified, or all the r-votes hitting you nulled? That's like writing a law forbidding somethign someone just did adn prosecuting them on it even though they did it BEFORE it existed. ><; That's my complaint on that. (I could understand Trauma doing it, but Sorrow?)

Poor Krizak...

He's been tallying up the votes for around 6 hours now! X_X;;

I think it's safe to say that there won't be anymore double vote rounds in future tournaments. No host in their right mind would want to deal with it.

Yume
Daughter of the Creator

Curley, you are ABSOLUTELY right!!! All future hosts, do NOT attempt to use double votes with rules as complex as these. Also, do NOT let yourself get dragged to a dinner at The Keg for two hours while you're tallying votes.

---

The Samctuary... it's falling apart... Yume thought. Zeal has succeeded, and now we must leave quickly. With a thought, she sent the competitors back to the green chamber, and was about to leave what she thought, Zeal! I can't leave her hear! But... I can't sense her... Why can't I sense her?

She took off the the marble platform just as it collapsed into the endless darkness, and began to fly towards the portal chamber, where Zeal had last been. She arrived just as a hideous black shadow crouched over the Queen's body. "You!" Yume gasped. "You're the thing from my dream!"

Very... perceptive of you... We are glad that we get to see you again...

"Get away from her! She has done you no harm!" the young goddess cried, and hurled a ball of energy at the being. It slithered back to dodge the attack, and stayed away as Yume picked up the comatose body of Queen Zeal. "If I see you again, I will destroy you..." she threatened, just before she dissappeared...

EDGE!!!!!!!!! *Rydia cries in a corner*

Ahem. Ouch. *cringe* O.o Gee, we all know who's loved...

BAKA!!!!!

Despite double votes, etc., he pulls a NEGATIVE THREE VOTES! O_O

Lemina and Duran BOTH barely pull through....

Me? I'm surprised. I shan't let the R-votes cast upon me go to waste.

Maybe a few more of use shoulda thrown votes @ Edge to make him the top vote reciver of Survivor history. I'm KIDDING EX! *flees from the zombie*

6_6 <--Edge with zombified eyes hanging out?

Zombie wasn't a status in FF4, was it? O.o I can't remember.

I made it?

I made it.

I MADE IT!

Thankfully my plans for Fallen Julius can easily be adapted for un-Fallen Julius. See you all tomorrow. *Holds up hand in traditional "V" victory gesture*

w00t...I got written into Yume's story! I'm glad you enjoyed the last part of my story, everyone.

Oh, and GJ@Baka for pulling off what I could've sworn to be impossible in this round.

I guess I'll have to sharpen my fangs and perfect my super combo next round, ne?

Munkwunk
FFOS6: Zio

Zio never awoke after passing out from the drain of the Megid spell. He knew it would be too much. He had hoped it was not in vain. For once, his dark god would not be pleased.

His blackened soul slipped into another plane, yet some how, it remained tied to this one. He could see and hear all that was around him, but he could neither touch nor smell.

He floated high above his body, and that of those which had collapsed around him. Zio's body was weak, human. But his soul would not be battered so easily. Those who had played part in bringing his physical form to an end would soon feel the cold taste of vengeance.

A battered knight, clinging to life by the threads of some spiteful fate, thought he could hear a dark oath being sworn... just before Zio blinked out of sight to await the next round.

Edit: *snip* I'll just add that to my sig, instead.


---

Hear now this story of the man that should not be
A ghoul of blackened torment, sullen atrocity
A kindred soul to the devils own, malignance personified
Cast from his fire he molests the purest light

Profane to humanity menaced by flesh and bone
Screams of the unknown youth to him the sweetest tone
Undying in his will to kill his bloodlust is profound
For the blood of the lamb I've got to bring him down

~Vengeance Is Mine, by Iced Earth

And the results are:


........Edge......... .........Locke.......... .........Kefka......... ........Zio........

...sorry folks, couldn't resist. Hope y'all come back as fallen! (but not those guys above, they have the worst case of halitosis ever..)


Edit: and it's not humanly possible to make those line up. Bah.
