Gryz's Adios


Alright, while i am utterly confused about why FFO was inaccessabile for an entire day and how the tournament shall deal with its new setback, I am positive of one thing, that i have been elimated. In a rather spectacular manner as well. Although I remained essentially untouched for the entire first and second round, I managed to accumulate a handful of votes in the last 45 minutes of round two.
As for continuing as a fallen, I am against it. Gryz, according to my own intro, joined the tournament on accident, so i see no reason for him to continue haunting contestants form the great beyond.
I had wicked fun, I hope to particpate in more of these tournaments. Krizak, i think you have done a tremendous job. To the several of you whom i used as projectiles, may you continue to be either convientently placed, or loud, heavy, and spiked.

Adios all.

I'm gonna need guns. Lots of guns.

Leaning against the wall, Driscoll took a second to survey his surroundings. Looks like a classroom - there are desks, and a board and pulpit at the front... I wonder what they teach in here? Must be some kinda intelligence class, cause there's no way anyone could learn combat from books!

Nosing around the room, he spotted something lying against the a desk in the corner.

Looks like.. a sword? Ah well, who am I to look a gift horse in the mouth?

He walked over and picked it up. Strange... seems to have a trigger...

He aimed it at the wall, and squeezed the trigger - not much happened - the blade vibrated slightly.

Looks like a sword blade, with a gun... a gun...blade?





...naw. Lame.


A blinking light on the computer caught his eye...

-----

Yes, that's my personal opinion on gunblades - they don't actually shoot bullets, they vibrate the blade to cause extra wounds. And they're a bit lame

And... come back, Simplistic Hero! If not this time, come back in the future!

Oh i'm coming back...

Don't worry, I owe you a few shots, and Drakken is always looking for a new bruise. I'll be back next tournament.

Might try a dark character too, Id seems like he'd handle nicely. Maybe Hammer.......or good Ol' Masion.....

FFOS6: Edge

Edge stopped at the doorway to the infirmary. Guess I'd better be stealthy about it...

Quietly, the ninja peeked his head in, only swing it back immediately at a loud, angry-sounding boy yelling at the group of SeeDs standing around him.

"Damn you all! Where is that little punk, I'll kill him! No one does this to Seifer Almasy, no one!"

"Maybe we could find the guy for you, ya know..."

"Shut the hell up, Raijin!"

Edge listened for a few moments. Apparently, the angry guy had been attacked by the man in red Edge had fought during the last two rounds. Wonderful. Good to know he's still around...

There didn't seem to be anyone he knew in the room, so Edge started to turn away. It was then that he noticed the sword-like weapon leaning against the wall.

"Sa-weet!"

The king quickly snatched up Seifer's Hyperion and then silently crept away. A moment later, he heard the angry boy's voice increase in volume.

"Hey, Raijin, where did you put the Hyperion?"

"Like, right there, ya...er...where'd it go, ya know?"

"SHIT!"

It was then that the ninja broke into a run across the large hall for the library on the other side.

Unfortunately for him, the floor was rather slippery.

"Whooaaaa..." A deafening crash echoed through the Garden. The Hyperion gracefully flew from the fallen ninja's hand to the doorway once more.

"Oh, here it is, ya know!"

"Owwww..."

*****

Edit: All fixed, Kriz.

Thoughts in CHAOS

Whoo hoo! Booyaka! We're back online! YAY! The mighty record-holder for votes is back in the saddle! What did you all do while ffo was down? I was lamenting my loss, over and over... Oh well, now I can fight with even more impunity!
-----

Chaos couldn't believe it. Blasted mortals! Why don't they stay dead? How can I possibly fight them when I can't move?

Chaos lifted up his claws. The blood was already gone. What in the Time Loop?!? The golden scales were shrinking, and disappeared. In their place was a suit of mithril armor. While still taller than most mortals, he was now only seven and a half feet tall, by their standards. WHAT! Not this form, not again!

But it was too late. Chaos, too weakened in his true body, had reverted back to the knight which he had enslaved, so many centuries ago. "At least in this form I can wreak vengeance for my loss!"

Garland now lifted his hands. "Master of Blades, I have need of you!"

Masamune appeared in his hand. In his other, Driscoll's blade also appeared. At his side, in it's sheath, was the Sun Sword which Garland had been proficient in before Chaos's domination. "Now, mortals, you shall see the wrath of Chaos. The world will shake and tremble!"
---

What is this? Garland looked around. The buildings here... were so bizarre. Shaped into domes, Garland noticed a sign. Balamb Garden Main Gate

Balamb... Garden? I do not understand. No matter, the others must be here. I shall destroy them all!

Garland strode in. Inside was the corpse of Bowser, Boomer's katana still in it's claws. "Mighty were the fallen, yet I will have need of this blade. It is far better than what I could have expected."

Another sheath appeared at Garland's side. In went the katana, and Garland continued on. A strange looking man in black pants and a jacket with a scar on his face was staring out over the water. Garland stepped up to him. "Pardon me, sir. Have you seen a large amount of strange looking people inside that building behind you?"

"...Whatever." The man shrugged his shoulders. I see... obviously he does not know. Either that, or he does not care. One or the other.

Garland sighed, and passed him by. The door warden stopped him. "Excuse me, you cannot enter without a pass!"

"Pardon me, I am new here. Could you tell me where I am?"

"Yeah, you're in Balamb Garden. And, unless you have a pass, I suggest you leave."

Garland sighed. Imbecile. "Perhaps you do not understand. I am here for the tournament."

"I don't care if you are here for Headmaster Cid, no one gets in without a pass!" The mortal dared to lock the gates against Garland.

Garland reached out with one hand, and ripped the gate from it's hinges. Tossing it aside easily, Garland turned to the old guard. "I enter wherever I wish. Do not forget it, mortal!"

Garland continued on to what appeared to be a large reception area. The designer obviously attempted to attain a "home away from home" appearance. The guard was yelling to no one in particular. These mortals appear interesting. Perhaps, in a longer stretch of time, they would prove an interesting study. But now, they are only in the way.

A loud siren called over the Garden. "Attention, an intruder has entered the Garden! Correction... many intruders have entered the Garden. All lower classmen, please report to your classrooms. All SeeDs, prepare to repulse invaders."

Garland smiled inside his helmet. These mortals... were attempting to stop him? Two, the black-jacketed one and one with a sky-blue outfit over black with a blaster in her hand, stood before him. "Stop right there!"

Garland smiled. "I am sorry. I do not have time for you. Please excuse me."

Garland then jumped into the air, and landed many feet away from them. A human from before was there. "YOU!"

The ninja spun around. "Who are you?" Edge asked.

Garland laughed, low but menacing. "I am your doom. The one you struck down has returned again. Are you ready?"

Edge pulled out a strange-looking device. Garland smiled, and knocked it out of his hand. "There is no point in using that which will harm you."

Edge drew his sword, the Murasame. Garland chuckled. "I see. I would not be fair to fight you, when you have one sword and I have four. Very well then."

Edge had a small look of hope as Garland drew the Masamune. "This is yours, is it not?"

"Yeah, it's mine. Now give it back!"

"As you wish."

Garland ran toward Edge. The ninja, too late, realized his position. Garland slammed into him. "It was foolish to trust an enemy..."

Edge fell to his knees as the Masamune was stabbed into him. "...And even more foolish to expect mercy from me!"

Garland stepped back. "It is far too easy to kill you, now. You do not deserve a quick death. I will destroy all you hold dear, first. Starting with... her!"

Edge's eyes went wide. "Stay away from her, monster!"

Garland smiled, unseen behind his expressionless helmet. "That is exactly what I wished to hear. Now, you would like to keep that blade, correct?"

Edge, expecting the response, said nothing. Garland smirked. "Very well then. Since you have no attachment to the Masamune..." Garland jerked the Masamune from Edge. "...You may have this one!" Garland stabbed Driscoll's blade deep into Edge.

Garland stepped towards Edge, and whispered. "Maybe now you will understand how it feels, to lose everything and be unable to stop the one you hate."

"W-who are you?"

"I am Chaos, the most powerful. I am the Master of Time, and the doom of all who oppose the Darkness. I am also Garland, the most powerful of Knights. You are fortunate. You are the first to fall before me."

Edge only gasped as Garland left. If Edge wishes to stop me, he is welcome. I will be only too happy to strike him down again. Now, where is Rydia?
-----

OOOH, evil! Can't wait to see what happens, Exeter! Mintaka, watch your back!

Recap: Edge now has Driscoll's sword.

Attack: One really nasty blow against Edge.

FFOS6: Edge

Nice, Benjamin! I'm really glad you're still around, you're an excellent adversary.

Looks like we're both collecting weapons, now...

*****

Edge groaned in horrible pain. It had been that demon, Chaos. He was sure of it. He didn't think he could move if he tried, and as it was, he didn't want to.

The ninja coughed harshly, leaving a small pool of blood next to his face. Oh...shit. He was dying, and there was nothing to be done. That thing was going to run around the castle, destroying everything in its path, and there was nothing he could do. He couldn't even protect...her. Rydia...she's...its next target...

"NO!!" Edge screamed in pure fury, lifting a hand high into the air, then, with more strength than he had ever possessed, managed to pull himself to the wall, a crimson trail in his wake. Using the wall as support, he pushed himself to a sitting position, then found the one remaining potion he owned and swallowed it quickly.

After several seconds, he took a deep breath, then stood. Pain still shot through his body, though his life was no longer in danger. Carefully, he picked up the fencing sword from the floor and added it to his growing collection of weapons.

That's it. Time to kick ass.

Raging, the ninja headed after Garland.

What's with all the TEHs?

OOC: Mwahahaha...time to mess with Squall!
----

"Um...it's...hard to explain...mind if I just tell you later?"

Stupid...

I tried...

The guy swung his blade.

"I don't think so. I want an explaination. And it better be quick."

"Ok...well..."

Tell him...or not?

"Yeah...?"

I opened my mouth, then closed it, then opened it again. I catiously took a step forward. He didn't slice me into pieces. Well, that was a start.

"Well, I'm participating in this...thing," I said lamely. "And I got warped here. As did all those other people you're seeing around here. It's not under my control. I...um...don't have any desire to hurt anyone."

He let his blade hang down to his side, looking at me.

"We can't trust everything we hear," he stated.

"I'm...aware of that," I replied nervously.

"Whether you're telling the truth or not...I can't let you go."

I gaped.

"Can you be so heartless?" I asked disbelievingly. "Look at me. Do I look like a girl who's going to go on a rampage killing everyone? You know I'm innocent! Admit it! Why won't you let me go!?" I took yet another step towards him.

This time, he brought his sword down, slashing toward me. I barely had time to get my rod up in time to block it. His next words are ones I should've expected to hear, but never wanted to.

"I'm a mercenary. It's my job."

He slashed again. Shoot, I'm on the defensive. I won't have time to chant for a spell...

"Listen, if you'll just hear me out for one secon--"

"No," he inturrupted me before I could finish the sentence. He begain to swing his sword so fast I could barely follow it. Back, fourth, back...

He obviously prefered to fight rather than talk. Pity I'm the opposite...

"Maybe it's your job, but in killing innocents also you job!?"

"...Whatever..."

I was buying time. His attacks were getting slower.

"Whatever? So you're also brainless puppets? That's nice to know..."

Hm. I should take taunting lessons from Nall or Kyle sometime. I'm getting lots of practice...

His face contorted into a slight rage.

"If that's what it takes to get the job done," he said briskly," so be it." He stopped for a second.

Yes! An opening!

I got down on my hands and slide kicked him into his legs. He stumbled, and I took the oppertunity to retreat backwards in time to chant a spell.

"By the power of Althena...Flame Bomb!"

A fireball blazed in my hand, and it flew towards him, hitting him straight in the chest. He staggered, closing his stormy grey eyes as if to lessen the impact. Reinforcements were already coming towards us. Time to make a tactical retreat...

"Commander Leonhart!" One yelled.

"Squall!" exclaimed aother.

Squall Leonhart. Well, I couldn't have thought of a better name for him myself, was my fleeting thought as I ran in the other direction.

Official Host of FFOS6

Jeez, third round and people are already trying to guess my character's motive... Too bad your characters won't find out the truth until much later.

Also, please don't turn this into an FFVIII bash-a-thon. I happen to like FFVIII, and I don't want to see the characters degenerate into those stupid stereotypes that FFVIII bashers always seem to cojure up out of nothingness.

That doesn't stop me from picking on a certain cocky bastard, though...

-----

"Get out of my way right now! That red-robed bastard will DIE!!!"

"Seifer, ya-ya know, perhaps you should lie back down, ya know..." Raijin stood in front of the door to the infirmary, trying to reason with one of his two best friends. "You took a nasty shock back there, ya know, and p-perhaps you shouldn't be back on your-"

"Shut up, you idiot! I'm in charge here, and I say we go back out there, find that mage, and beat him within an inch of his life!" Seifer grabbed Raijin's shoulder and literally threw the larger man out of his way, and began to leave.

"STOP." Fujin stepped in front of the door and held up her hand to Seifer. "DON'T GO."

"Don't tell me that you're backing down, Fujin! You've never turned down a challenge."

"BACK OUT, NO." Fujin stood her ground. "SEIFER'S ACTIONS, RASH. NEED PLAN."

"Grrrrr..." Seifer seethed at not being able to run straight into battle, but there was no denying Fujin's logic. They would never last against so many opponents without some form of strategy. "Alright, fine! But we had better come up with a plan quickly, before Squall gets himself and his wussy SeeDs into too much trouble!"

"I'm afraid no plan will help." The three turned to see Yume sitting at Dr. Kadowaki's desk. "You three will stand no chance against the greatest warriors of a dozen realities."

"Who are you, and how the HELL did you get into here?" Seifer asked, raising his Hyperion as he spoke.

"I am Yume, and I am responsible for the intruders being here. We are holding a tour-" Yume was almost caught off-guard by Seifer's sudden attack, but she still managed to effortlessly jump out of her seat. She landed behind him just as the Hyperion cut her chair in half. "You fool! Do you even know who you are attacking?"

"Yes. I'm attacking the person responsible for the attack on Garden! Raijin! Fujin!" Seifer slashed at Yume again, but she jumped back easily. She still felt a blow hit her in the chest, however. His weapon! It's vibrating, sending out a pulse of energy to increase it's damage! How ingenious!

"SAI!" Yume turned and saw a bladed disc plowing through the tiled floor directly towards her. Just as the blade popped up to hit Yume, she caught it, and quickly tossed it towards Raijin. The weapon sliced clean through Raijin's staff, and embedded itself in his shoulder, causing him to fall to his knees in pain.

Yume spent no time contemplating the fallen warrior, and ran towards Fujin. Dodging a few well-timed kicks (the martial art type, NOT the shin kicks), the young girl managed to grab Fujin and threw her across the room and out of the window.

The victory against the two was short-lived, however, as Seifer launched another attack at Yume. The blade managed to hit it's target this time, strike Yume in the back; however, the magical fabric that made up her yakuta resisted the blow. "What..? How is that possible!?"

Yume didn't respond, but instead pulled out her katana and spun around, blocking Seifer's next blow. The two exchanges blows and parries, and Seifer admitted to himself that his opponent was very good, possibly even better than himself.

NO! I am the best! I will not be defeated! NEVER!!! Seifer put every ounce of effort he possessed went into his duel, making his blows stronger, his parries faster. As he fought Yume, it began to seem that he might win.

Hmm, a vibrating sword... Yume thought, only paying a little attention to her battle with Seifer. I wonder how I could pull that off... I know! Yume began to concentrate, and her blade began to warm up. Soon, it was hot to the touch, and even the elaborate wooden hilt began to be uncomfortable to the young warrior. Here goes... Leaping backwards, Yume swung her blade in the direction of Seifer.

A moment later, the former Sorceress' Knight emerged from the other side of the infirmary wall. Though his continued consciousness resulted in him feeling the full brunt of the blow, it also prevented him from drowning when he hit the ocean below him.

Yume stood in awe, gaping at the hole in the wall. Well... I wasn't expecting that... Was that the result of the sword I took from Saint, or are my powers such that I change everything I touch... into something more destructive? She looked at her sword for a moment longer, then turned and walked out of the infirmary.

After she left, Raijin slowly stood to his feet, and stared at the blade protruding from his shoulder. "...Ow... ya know..." was all he managed to get out before fainting from the pain and bloodloss.

Lutz
TEH Defiant of Time

Wow! How long were the servers down for? two days? This is my first post since the begining of Wednesday I think... I even emailed Dh to see if he'd post on my behalf when the servers came back up
And is it me or has the whole website shifted to the right?
Anyway, here goes....

As he was leaving the damaged corridor behind Lutz was hit in the back by a spell, a spell he recognised as vol. The Frad Mantle he wore though was protection enough for it, but not for the next one... as he turned to see his assailant, who he'd already surmised would be the dark mage, he was caught by a blast of dark energy, fully in the chest. Lifting him clean off of his feet he was slammed into a wall, where the laser of a TriBlaster caught him too. He lay at the bottom in a world of hurt, attempting to gather the will to rise. He could make out the shadowy form of a black mage dissapearing down to the lower floor.
Summoning what remained of his strength Lutz stood and headed to the rails that overlooked the lower floor.

It was obvious that he was at least two floors higher than everyone else, for he could see the carnage below. Havoc was everywhere. Not only were the combatants fighting each other they were also fighting the people of this world, these “SeeDs” he’d heard about over the tannoy, and they were good.
Blades, whips, guns, they were all being used against the strange newcomers. Three of them had cornered a women and were taking it in turns to attack her. Although he didn’t recognise her he knew he must help. Fighting against such overwhelming odds was not fair.

“Savol!” Shouted Lutz, his Psycho Wand pointing at the three men. Three bolts of electricity shot at them, each one hitting. The SeeDs collapsed to the ground, dead, they’re nervous systems backfired against they’re own muscles. the same technique had previously failed against himself, but the SeeDs weren't prepared to resist a blow like Savol. The young woman stood up, dusting her dress off, she didn’t seemed to be too badly hurt. Nonetheless…

“Gires!” Shouted Lutz, bringing forth the healing light. The young woman looked up at him, a smile of thanks on her lips before she darted down a corridor.

Below the fight raged on, seemingly more intense than ever. Several bodies lay dead, but none that he recognised.
Knowing that his encounter with the Black Mage had left him in a weakened state he realised he'd not be able to do anything about it.

“Diablos! I need you! Disable everybody! Stop the fighting!” Shouted Lutz to the air.

Several SeeDs looked around at the sound, hearing the words of the guardians name.
Up above a strange thing was happening on the ceiling. Where the supports and the cross-beams for the vast ceiling were there was a movement. The shadows that were cast against them from the up-lights in the small lakes were shifting, as though alive. They moved quickly, in small dartful flicks, heading towards the centre of the vast roof. More and more joined, coalescing into a giant black orb, some 20 foot in diameter. Below the fighting had stopped in all but the fiercest of skirmishes, everyone was staring up above. Diablos was slowly emerging from the shadows, his wings beating slowly to keep him aloft. He stopped just below, and grinned, right at the Black Mage who had appeared below, two bodies of SeeDs at his feet.
Raising his hand up above he summoned forth streamers of light, each one seemed to caress the shadow from which he emerged. The noise was awful, the screeching of light against dark in solid states. The light streams become denser, moving closer and closer to the orb… Diablos arched his back and seemed to pull the orb down, his light struggling to move the darkness up above.

”Like an immovable object being pulled by an unstoppable object…” Murmured Lutz to himself, fearful of what the result would bring.

The darkness was distorting, like a liquid metal 50 feet up. Suddenly the darkness gave way, like a dam bursting. The light pulled it downwards as Diablos literally threw it towards the ground. The light had vanished, but the momentum was carrying it on, and the friction of the solidified dark made against the air was enough to drive Lutz to his knees. Gazing outwards he saw the damage being done, the sheer destruction being caused. The people were forced to the ground, benches were bent over double, rubbish bins were flung sideways as though hit by a missile. The floor splinted, one the banks near the lake broke, and water gushed out everywhere. Then it was gone. And all that was left behind was destruction. The central pillar for the complex had a huge crack running up the side and there was a general background noise of masonry under great strain. On the floor there wasn’t much movement, people were in too much pain. Some didn’t move. Even the Black Mage could just about rise to his feet, and his left arm looked broken.

Lutz stared in horror… what have I done!? he said, backing away…
”What have I done!?” he shouted, fleeing the scene.

Curley WEAPON
FFO Survivor VI: Umaro

Umaro scanned his new surroundings. Everything had a bright tone to it, dozens of people were wearing the same clothes, and stone fish were shooting water into a large fountain that wrapped around a huge pillar. "This place pretty. Me wonder where to start fi- Huh?!" He stopped short when an unbelievable aroma filled his nose, and captivated his senses.

"What is that smell?!" Umaro mumbled in awe. He sniffed the air a few more times, his mouth watering more and more with every passing second. It was food. It had to be food. Sweet delicious sustenance(well, as much sustenance as you can get from cafeteria food)! It called to him, beckoning him, to come forth and reap it's fruits. Umaro tried to show restraint, reminding himself that he was in a tournament.

Then his stomach reminded him, most painfully at that, that he hadn't eaten in two days.

"RRAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRGGGGGHHHHH!!!!!!" With that primal roar, he charged down the hallway like a mad bull. His nose guided him as he stampeded over a dozen people along the way, SeeD and competitor alike. When he reach the cafeteria, he breathed in deeply. The smell was stronger than ever now, coming from behind a large counter. He let out a small moan as his anticipation grew.

"Hey! What do you think you're doing here furball?!" A SeeD cadet called out to the entranced yeti. He tried to rush the sasquatch, but he was quickly knocked unconscious as Umaro shot his fist at the annoying voice that distracted him from his search for food. He jumped over the counter, and made his way to the very source of the intoxicating stench.

He was there. This was it. These little red sticks in bread were the entity that had grabbed his soul, and had brought him to this place. He couldn't hold back any longer. He ran to tray of hotdogs, and began to gorge himself relentlessly on the Balamb Garden meal of choice.

Everyone in the cafeteria was now focused on the humanoid beast that was sucking down hot dogs as if they were air. A blue haired woman in royal garb felt queesy as small scraps of hotdog barely escaped the sasquatch's jaws in it's sloopy feeding frenzy. A magician in a red cape almost turned green. Slash, having already seen how Ozzie put away food, was the only one who wasn't disturbed by Umaro's atrocious eating habits.

"Good thing I got some of those while they lasted" He thought to himself as Umaro finished off the the last of the hotdog's, and proceeded to inhale the near food tray.

About thirty minutes later, it was finally over. He let out a massive sigh, and slowly walked out of the cafeteria, content with himself. Nobody tried to stop him from leaving. They were all still in a state of shock and stupor.

"Zell's not gonna like this...." The cafeteria lady muttered.

Où est la Lumière?

Gau was once again swapped into an unfamiliar place. But this time, he was not afraid, because Relm is with him, hand in hand.

"Let's go, Gau"

"Woo!!"

Gau was glad. It had been such a long time since he saw Relm. He had been away in the forest for far too long. So long...he had forgotten how it feels to touch another human's hand.
Relm's hand was small, but very warm. Gau was very happy to be with someone to accompany through this journey. He had met too many weird people, some just knock him in the nose without saying anything, some just set traps to injure him. He was afraid. He had trust humans ever since he was with Locke and Celes. But ever since the fight against Kefka, he was alone again. He could not trust anyone but himself, because everyone is out to hurt him.

But now, he was with Relm. He was not afraid anymore.

"Oh my! What the...this place is huge!!!" Relm exclaimed excitedly.

"Woo! Gau like, big place!"

Gau was very excited. This place was big and very foreign. There are people wearing strange looking blue clothes walking around and they all turned to stare at Gau when he began wailing.

"Are you here for the exams? If you are, please lower down your volume. The exam is about to start. You will be penalised if you shout again."

Gau look up and saw this tall, brown hair man with a scar between his eyebrows. He look a little like Locke, but was more stern. His black leather jacket and belts around his waist made him look really smart and in his right hand, he held a big object that seems like a gun, but yet it has blade at the tip of the gun. Gau wonder what that was.

"Squall, he is just a kid. Stop scaring him like that. You ought to loosen up!"

Gau turned and saw a black long hair woman, with strips of brown on her side of her hair. She was wearing this blue like coat and black tights and was gorgeous...almost as gorgeous as Celes...

"But I was younger thn them when I came to SeeD!" said the man named Squall.

"Oh, come on, Squall," the woman laughed and turned to Gau. "Hre for the exams? Please proceed this way!"

With that, the woman grabbed Gau and Relm and pulled them into a room...

Gau was utterly confused...

So when will this round end?

FFOS6: Zio

OOC: One quick post before going to bed.
_________________________________________________
Zio trekked through the expansive passage way at the center of Balamb Garden. He could tell there had already been minor amounts of damage to the building from all of the fighting. A devious smile crossed his lips, knowing he had a part in causing some of it.

As he walked, he passed a passage with an odd sign hanging above it: "Cafeteria". Curious, he had almost started to head down the walkway when he noticed a huge, white beast devouring everything in sight. "Perhaps another time," Zio thought to himself, deciding a confronation with such a brute would do him no good at this point.

He continued walking, his pace picking up as he grew impation with travel; he wanted action, and most of it seemed to be directed elsewhere. Just then, an enormous event occurred.

The entire building rumbled, straining under the might of something massive. He looked around to see what may have been the cause of the trouble; a gigantic beast was casting some insane spell that looked eerily similar to Nagra, only amplified ten fold. It reminded him of the encounter with Setzer only a few short days before.

The spectacle continued, rending and tearing scaffolding, tiles.... and bodies. Above it all, he could see the shape of a very familiar figure standing upon a balcony, seemingly controlling the entire destructive mess. "Lutz," Zio said to himself. "Have you finally decided to serve Dark Force?" He could only help but grin.

His grin, however, quickly turned to pain as the gravitational pull finally became too intense to bear. Latching on to Zio's body with some unseen force, the gravity spell had caused Zio's arm to be pulled from its socket, rendering it useless for the time being.

"Damn you, Lutz!" he yelled up at the balcony. "Your days are numbered, fool!"

Then, as suddenly as it all happened, it was over. Bodies lay upon the floor, crushed, mangled. The entire structure of the building looked as though it would snap in two with the weight of a feather. "...but Dark Force would be proud of you, Lutz. Take pride in knowing you served Darkness!" he cackled to himself, his grin returning, the pain in his arm seeming insignificant.

Zio continued trapsing along the now-ruined path. Grimacing slightly as the pain returned to his arm. Before much time passed however, he encountered a girl wearing an odd blue uniform, and a.... thing... wearing brightly coloured shrouds. They both seemed dazed; it looked like the perfect time to have some fun.

Holding up his good arm, he pointed his hand toward the girl in the blue dress, uttering a simple word.

"GIZAN!"

Gusts of wind swirled all around, carrying debris through the air and hurling it at the girl, the force sending her reeling through the air to collide with the shrouded person, knocking it off balance as well and causing it to fall to the ground, the girl landing on top of it.

Zio chuckled to himself. "I may be down one arm for now... but I've still got my magic!"
_________________________________________________
OOC: That was probably the lamest thing I have ever written. It's a quarter to five in the morning. Deal with it.

FFOS6: Flammie

By Ifrit's hairy chest, this could get interesting. We've got Leo summoning all four at once, and now Lutz whacks the Garden a good one. Bets on how soon the entire Garden's gonna crumble?

*Switches music to Nuclear Fusion, followed by Still More Fighting and Feel My Blade*

Need some variety.


From the relative safety of an airduct, the young dragon shuddered at the attack of the Dark Messenger.

Senseless... Some must be harmed for the sake of survival, but no need to crush them all...

Noting two of her friends had been caught in the enormous ball of dark energy, Flammie leaped from the airduct and swooped overhead, a multi-target Heal Light shining from her paws. Angela and Randi rose to their feet, wounds healing. A young red-headed girl in a yellow minidress rose to her feet as well, having been caught in the spell's effect.

"Woo-hoo! Thanks!" She cried, turning and clocking a charging boy over the head with her nunchaku.

Flammie flew upwards, looking over her shoulder to witness the unfolding recovery...

And collided headfirst with a dangling section of conduit.

Flammie and the hunk of debris tumbled downward. Flammie pulled out of the dive, but the debris did not. The hunk of pipe landed on a boy clad in green who had just risen from the floor, thus knocking him back down again.

A knight rose to his feet, arm raised in Flammie's direction. Fire crackled from his fingers, shooting forth in an immense fireball. Flammie rolled to one side, hoping to dodge the fireball. It worked... for a moment. The fireball shot past her and detonated in midair, the shockwave sending her tumbling away. She carefully straightened out and swerved to avoid hitting a wall. Turning her head, she spat a small fireball (Like she'd have large fireballs at this size. ) at the cloaked figure. She then turned and sought the man who had wrought such destruction upon the halls.

She found him running through a corridor lined in yellow carpet.

"Frrrrame Wall!"

The mage skidded to a top as a wall of fire roared from the ground in front of him. He spun around and eyed the small dragon warily as she approached, flame spurting from her nostrils in rage.

"Yuuuu hurrrt Frrammie frrrriendss! Frrammie TOASSST yuuu! Magic Barrrierr!" As the spell took effect, Flammie's form was surrounded in a sphere of blue, rippling energy which quickly faded.

Lutz straightened himself. "Listen!" He leaped aside to avoid a howling disc of wind.

"Hurrrrt frrrriends... Hurrrrt innocentsss... Hurrrt YUUUU! EXPLODE!"

"AHHH!" Lutz flailed frantically at his cloak, which had just caught fire. "Damn it, it was an accident!"

"Nnnot rrrikerry! ICE SMASH!"

Lutz cried out as he was pelted with shards of ice. "Listen! I had no idea what that creature would do! We're in new worlds! New rules! If I could cure everyone hurt by that blast, I would!"

Flammie paused in her onslaught. "Whyyy call it?"

"I... wanted to stop... the fighting. Too many innocent people around."

the fire in Flammie's eyes (And nostrils) dimmed. "Hurrr... Noble goalsss. Bad eksssecutionnn." She lifted one wing, showering him in a Heal Light spell. "Forrgive mee. Honesst misstake."

No probs! Zio just toasted me to for setting Diablos on him!
I think it might have been a serious error to publically attack sooooo many people. I was luck to survive the last round. Think I can kiss my ass good bye this time.

Leo watched the SeeD go past. Not yet...not yet...now.

Leo jumped down from his seat atop the quad door, bringing the hilt of his Imperial down sharply on the SeeD's head.

*THUNK*

"Hmm...interesting. Some kind of rifle."

Leo picked up the SeeD's rifle, and searched through his pockets for bullets. He eventually found a handful of small white pellets.

"That's what passes for bullets here? This is one strange world."


Leo has just gained -

Dark Knight of Vanda

It's back! I was wondering how Krizak was going to handle the delay... for a while I was afraid it was just my lousy ISP. At least the time extension came in a stage we're mostly all familiar with.

Added: Looks like the downtime was worth it, too.

-----

Culex's eyes opened once more, this time to the sight of a massive, colorful building seemingly alive, with grass and plants growing along the sides and wide, welcoming platforms and hallways.The last thing I can recall was that White Knight battling the Skull Kid atop the Clock Tower. And suddenly we are here. Is this Lady Yume's sense of humor, or is there some reason for our fight to be among non-combatants? I hope that there are still worthy Knights left after the last battleground. He cast his eyes down, looking himself over. It seems that I need some new garments... these are torn. And I am also hungry. It has been over a day since I have eaten last... though hunger brings me no pain, it is pleasant to eat.

He walked toward the front part of the Garden, for so the massive structure was. Several humans, weapons drawn, blocked the entryway into the massive building. Culex's red eyes narrowed, and started to glow a bright golden yellow as the Earth Crystal appeared beside him. "Would you block my way? Would you challenge me?"

One of the humans took a step forward, and Culex saw that he carried a lance in his left hand. "I'm a SeeD, a mercenary soldier of Balamb Garden. You're one of the people attacking us, aren't you?"

The Vandan gave a cold, humorless laugh. "I am with the band that is attacking you, but I have no quarrel with the weak. I am Culex, Dark Knight of Vanda, and I have crossed the dimensions to challenge the strongest Knights." His eyes grew wider as the other humans drew weapons also. "Very well." He slowly raised his hand and extended it, palm down, at the group. The Earth Crystal lit immediately and bathed the hard, even floor with its golden light before summoning a Boulder avalanche to strike them down. Culex noted with apathy that a young woman with vibrant hair who had been running past was flattened also, though she took the blow better than the 'SeeDs,' who had yet to move. Culex stepped over them and advanced to the gates.

An older human was still speaking into a device of some kind and the Vandan ears easily heard, "...the Headmaster. Let him know, and get the SeeDs. This is an attack!"

Culex's hard, glowing eyes swept over the shattered turnstile and he stepped through, ignoring the old man's threatening gestures. A young human in a black shirt and blue shorts had charged out into the wide, open entryway and was facing Culex and several other of Yume's Chosen behind him. This human squared off with Culex.

"Get the h--- outta our Garden!" He charged, fists and feet moving in high speed, marking the man as a clear martial artist.

"I have not even offered my challenge," stated Culex icily as he dodged the attack, "and you would strike me nevertheless? You are bold, human. But your strength and daring will not give you victory." As though to emphasize the point, Culex jabbed his claws hard into the man's stomach, and he doubled over in pain. Culex continued with a rock-hard punch to his face, still with the tremendous speed accumulated over centuries of pratice. The human went flying backward, and his companions, all dressed in dark blue uniforms, went to help him.

Culex ignored them and gated past, emerging in a circular pathway with a cylindrical device before him and leading upward, while two hallways swept around in a sort of semi-circle.Admirable architecture. It is unlike the Dark Plane. The Vandan turned his gaze to a young, short female and beckoned her over, which she nervously did. He looked her over, noticing the same blue uniform. She had no great power, and was probably not very proficient with the vibro-knife strapped to her belt. "I am Culex, Dark Knight of Vanda. I have crossed into this dimension to fight against this world's strongest Knight."

She looked up at him. "Oh, so you're a fighter? There's a bunch of people like you that just came here. You should try the training center." She pointed down the hallway to the right. "It's near the end; you can't miss it, it says 'training center' on the sign."

He bowed. "I thank you." He continued onward, then the female behind him charged and lunged at his back. Culex was expecting the attack but not its speed, and the dagger tore another hole into the back of his robe. My decision is made. I need new garments. But first.... "You have made an ill decision, human." He struck, with amazing agility, at the side of her neck, and the girl dropped to the ground instantly.

The Vandan walked along the side of the hallway toward the Training Center, ignoring the various humans and accidently stepping on a small mammal who was running about, a broken spear in hand. The creature quickly got back up and... started dancing? What is this? I have no time for animals or their petty games. Culex summoned a mid-sized Flame Stone and it struck the furry creature and flung him to ground, slight burns showing on its back.

He finally reached the Training Center, magically putting another pair of humans to sleep to avoid injuring them. While civilian casualties are none of my concern, Lady Yume has warned us in the past to avoid harming innocents. I would not disobey her wishes.

Another non-warrior was approaching out of the training center, dressed in the simple garb of a rogue. What is this? "Would you challenge me, then, thief?"

The man was enraged instantly. "Call me a thief and I'll rip your lungs out!"

Culex blinked, the still-golden eyes fading slightly. "Lungs... ah, what you humans breathe your horrible oxygen with. I see. Do you intend to make good your threat, human?" The man started to draw a thieves' blade from his scabbard, but Culex could not tell if it was a mere dagger or a Knight's sword. "Do you challenge me? Very well. I am Culex, Dark Knight of Vanda."

"I'm Locke-- treasure hunter extraordinaire!" he declared proudly.

"You are not a Knight? Wait a moment... a human female knew of you, one whom I fought."

Locke's eyes lit up. "Celes? Did you meet her?"

The Dark Knight shook his head. "I did not receive her name. But she was a Knight and fought with the power of the Rune Sword." He frowned as he saw the thief's excited visage, adding, "...but I have not seen her since the first round. In any event, you wished to fight with me...?"

The human nodded and then charged, striking several times at Culex but not landing a single hit as the Dark Knight parried, crystalline claws easily holding back the blade. "Not bad, whatever you are. Now, try this!" He closed his eyes as he prepared a spell, and energy from the Esper within allowed him to focus a powerful blast of ice and snow at the Dark Knight, who recoiled, though the Crystal absorbed much of the force.

"Well met, human. I suppose that it is my turn now." Culex gazed at the thief and then snapped his fingers as the Earth Crystal focused a trace beam into the ground, causing a tremor and then a spike of pure rock to shoot into Locke, which rose beneath his legs and shot him in the air, and he landed, in intense pain. The Crystal's mastery of Earth is such that even Bowser's Crusher is known to it, now that he is gone. Fascinating. He then fired a white beam from his open hand and Locke fell to the ground, asleep. "The woman fell in the same manner. I hope that you are able to find her, human. Happiness is elusive, even to the strong." He sighed as he stepped over the sleeping man's body. This reminds me. After I am done here, I will need to find Lady Yume.

The Training Center contained a variety of monsters and other beasts, and several humans were engaged in battle with them. Evidently humans had the option of "training" by battling live monsters. They did not know, obviously, that a warrior could only improve by defeating another Knight in battle.

He ignored them until he came across a human several years older than most of the others. He was sitting with his back to a tree, and had a device in his hands that he was using to teleport items from an unknown location. Various bottles, probably potions, were on the ground. He looked up as Culex approached him."Hail, human. Are you a merchant?"

He blinked. "Er... well, yeah, kind of. Call me Joker-- member of the Card Club." He stood and offered his hand to the Vandan, but Culex did not take it, being unfamiliar with the gesture."OK... well, what can I interest you in?" His annoyance with his guest was beaten by his curiousity, and Joker was still speaking politely.

Culex did not waste words. "I need garments." That was all. His voice was cold, and hard, and probably impatient.

The human swallowed. "Uh... sure. What kind? I mean, the tailors I can order from have just about anything. You know-- shirts, pants, shorts, uniforms, suits, three-piece, semi-formal, what?"

The Vandan stared. How complicated. "I would like the best you have. Ah...." he looked over the computer panel that Joker had held to his face, showing him various pictures.

"Why don't you order it yourself? It'd be easier that way." He showed Culex the various controls of the device, which the Vandan found simple enough, and sat back down.

The Dark Knight pressed the "view" option and saw a list of items in white text atop a grey backdrop. He traced his finger to an icon of an expensive, stylish dark suit. An image popped onto the screen and zoomed in, identifying it as a product of Marcci, tailor to someone in a city called 'Galbadia.' He pressed the 'order' button on the device, which was labeled as a 'computer,' and stared in surprise as an odd sound emitted from it, followed by the word 'connected.' Another box on the screen opened, and a young female human's portrait was in it.

"Hello, Marcci Tailor Office. First clothing outlet in Galbadia able to warp purchases! Please state your name and place your hand on the sensor for scanning." Her voice was high-pitched and sounded, as humans would say, 'perky.' It was annoying.

Culex obliged as placed his hand to the indicated mark on the screen. Evidently the technology used for 'warping' was two-way. "I am Culex, Dark Knight--"

"I don't need titles, sir, just the name. I'm Clarice, in case you're wondering."

"Why hello, Clarice." he stated in his usual cold voice.

She rolled her eyes. "Yeah. Oh... well, that's odd." Her digital face looked at him closely through the screen. "...are you six feet, six inches?"

"In your way of measurement, yes. Is there a problem?"

The woman shook her head but asked another question anyway: "Neck, nineteen inches?"

The Dark Knight put his hand over the muscular crystal-hard flesh. "...yes, I believe so."

"Oh, well, I just wanted to make sure this wasn't broken. It has you at 672 pounds."

"That sounds about right for this form, yes. Now, would you please--"

She interrupted him again. "Very well, sir. We should have this to you in about half an hour. Please be ready with your Gil Card upon retrieval of the item." She disconnected after a nod from Culex.

Joker made to take the device back, but Culex's hand lanced out to his trapezius muscle and pressed the nerve there, and the man fall to the ground with a thud. Purple claws quickly reached into the man's pocket and removed his card, and scanned it into the computer. It matched the data Joker had already inputted and paid for Culex's purchase. After a mild twinge of conscience, the Dark Knight tossed several gold coins atop the man's sleeping body.

The Vandan sighed and sat down along the hard wall behind him. Thirty human minutes... and then I can resume my quest. Several of Culex's enemies were still in the tournament, and Culex was looking forward to meeting them again. The Dark Knight closed his eyes and meditated.

And was promptly knocked over by the sounds of battle far overhead. What's this? He concentrated and felt the area around him. Hmmm... four, maybe five powerful essences of energy that exist in this plane and another. And they seem to have the influence of Leo. Hmmm... he seems to be in a state of stasis.... Ah, and there is Lady Yume, just finished with a duel, it seems. I wonder who her unfortunate victims are? I cannot feel them at all, right now.... No matter. But things are certainly getting more interesting... I am glad I accepted her offer, though I am starting to regret my limited role. I hope that Leo recovers soon. He could easily be the Knight I seek.

FFOS6 - Laike

"Owww..."

Laike groaned and staggered upright, leaning on a blue-green wall for support while doing so. Not one minute in this new location and he'd already been barged out of the way by a stampeding yeti, bellowing as it headed straight for a doorway marked 'Cafeteria' just ahead of him. That was probably another competitor, though, since from the looks of this place it wasn't a natural habitat for snow-beasts.

Running water underneath this walkway... pale blues and greens all around... these people don't really go in for bright colours, Laike thought to himself while taking in the surroundings. And would it really hurt to get a little vivid decoration added to this place?

Laike shrugged. Oh, well. Looking around for his fallen bow, he got another shock; it was missing! Only a minute and some scoundrel'd pinched it! Laike looked around frantically, especially at the children - Why are there some many armed kids in this place, anyway|? - and eventually saw it on the back of a blonde-haired man in an large area off the central corridor.

Laike ran after him and skidded to a halt on the smooth floor not far behind the man. "That bow's mine, I believe, and I'd appreciate it if you returned it before things get messy," he called across the Quad compound, challenging the culprit.

The man turned, showing his face. "I'd say it was finders keepers, old man. You weren't using the bow sprawled out on the floor, so I thought it needed a more careful owner.

"Look me up after the tournament, you can have it," Laike grated, drawing his sword. "But in the mean time, I need that weapon and don't like the idea of a thief making off with it."

"That's TREASURE hunter!" the man shouted, drawing his own blade and charging Laike. He barely caught the blue-sheened weapon on the edge of his shield, hammering it away to the left and catching the thief on the chin with his sword's hilt. The man stumbled backwards and collided with another, a dark-skinned knight with a green surcoat and blond hair.

The thief turned quickly, in case he had to defend himself against two attackers, and felt his jaw drop. Laike took to opportunity to leap backwards and land in a more defensive posture, taking in the other contestants in the Quad and the teen soldier who'd been apparently chasing the other man.

"Leo?" the thief asked the second man in an amazed voice. "I thought you were dead!"

"I've been hearing that a lot recently, Locke," Leo replied laconically. "I was dead, but Yume offered me a chance in this tournament to avenge myself on Kefka. Now it seems I find myself without a purpose."

The thief - Locke - smiled at this and thumbed backwards towards where Laike was waiting. "Then for the moment, would you help me deal with this guy?"

"With pleasure," the knight replied, loading something into a weapon he'd recently aquired while Locke rushed forward to attack again.

Laike staggered backwards as Locke's sword clashed against his own, and Locke delivered a fast strike to the lower left that got past Laike's guard and badly slashed his thigh. He moved to counter and strike on Locke's body, unguarded by the ferocity of that blow, but a hail of projectiles from Leo's weapon hammered against his shield and forced him back again.

In desparation, Laike dug into his bomb bag and ignited the fuse, throwing the explosive towards his foes. The blast rocked the walls of the compound area, but when the smoke cleared his opponents had only taken minor injuries. The students in the area, however, were all backing away from the combatants in fright.

Laike readied himself for a second attack from the two, wondering why fighters like those kids would be frightened by a simple bomb, and was shocked to see the same looks of astonishment/fear on his opponents' faces. "Had enough, lads?" he cried out sardonically. "This isn't a picnic, you know, so don't fight me unle---"

"WHO AMONGST YOU DARES TO ENTER COMBAT WITH ME, MORTALS?," a thunderous voice boomed out from behind Laike.

Oh, crap.

Laike felt the hot steam of breath on the back of his neck, and could still hear the echoes of that terrible voice through his bones. Dreading what he would see, Laike turned to see a giant - a monster - of a man astride one of the largest horses Laike had ever seen his his life. The horse itself was red-eyed, and its six hooves impatiently dug inch-deep grooves in the marble flooring.

The man astride this hell-beast wore the heaviest armour that Laike had ever seen, and carried a wickedly curved sword that was fully half again as tall as Laike was. His eyes also glowed red, and were gazing over the contestants still in the quad. "HAVE I NO TAKERS? DOTH FEAR LIE WITHIN THE BELLIES OF YOU ALL?" he boomed out again.

A stunned moment passed while everyone froze.

"THEN DIE!! the demon-knight roared, his horse rearing up to charge. Laike hadn't survived for twenty years without magic without knowing when he was outmatched, and dived to the side while the manic knight charged through the compound and slashed at several others, contestant and local alike.

By the Blue Star, what is happening to us all? Laike thought as he helped some of the less fortunate get out of the way of the giant maniac or healed their wounds where possible.

OOC: Attack votes to Locke, Leo Christophe, Link, Robo, Ayla and Starman. Nothing personal, guys, I just need to use them up and I have a hard enough time voting in the first place!

Also, R-Votes to Lutz, Rydia, Flea and Angela.

I'm on my lunch hour, you know, gotta go back to work now!

EDIT: This slightly distorts HolyKnightWayne's post, since he was attacking Locke too and I didn't see his post when I was writing, but I figure Locke got up from the attack and went somewhere else.

"Just...a bit..."

CLICK

"Ah..ha!"

Leo pushed the hatch up and climbed out into the elavator shaft.

"Hmm...here'll do."

Sitting in the entrance of an air vent, he reached down back into the lift and bought out the gun. Carefully, Leo placed one of the pearly bullets into the chamber.

"Right...let's try this on...you."

Lining the biggest target he could find up in the rifle's sight, Leo slowly squeezed the trigger.

WAAAAHH!

A beam of white light as thick as his arm shot out, and the recoil pushed Leo back into the wall. He bounced off, smashed through the elevator shaft with an almighty crash, and plumetted 10 feet into the water below.

Leo pushed his head above water, and looked at the still smoking Exeter floating a little way away from him. He grinned maniacally.

"Woah!"

FFOS6: Zelda

Zelda blinked. The worlds had shifted again, and once again she found herself seperated from her friends. There was carnage ensuing all over the strange castle she found herself in. With walls made of metal, windows showing out at the sky everywhere you looked, and a giant fountain with blood-stained water flowing in it....

The sights were amazing...but Zelda had no time to concentrate on them for long, as she was immediately attacked by a squad of guys in black suits carrying various weapons...

"Get out of our Garden..." Said one who was presumably the leader, as he was the only one not in uniform. He was carrying a strange weapon, with a blade made of crystal attached to some...revolving device with a trigger.

"I'm sorry...I'm not here of my own accord....but I can't leave just yet....I don't mean to harm any of you..."

"Whatever....Attack!!!"

Zelda looked around before chanting a few words "Din's Fire!!"

Flame engulfed the entire lower floor of the garden, with power that even amazed Zelda. People lay, strewn all over, contestants and SeeD's alike.

"My god.....This world must enhance my magic somehow.....oh god....how many have I hurt...?"

"So...That's your idea of not meaning to hurt anyone huh?" the leader was still standing. His coat was singed, but he was standing. He pulled his weapon from its sheath, and prepared to attack. Zelda pulled out her bow and latched an arrow onto it.

Zelda let out the first attack, the arrow went wide. Squall ran at her and swung. "Nayru's love.." Zelda whispered to herself, as a blue barrier appeared around her and the blow went to the side harmlessly. "UUgh...What was that?" Said the leader angrilly. "Whatever....It doesn't matter...DIE!!!"

Squall ran back to get ready for his next blow, and Zelda took the opportunity to put another Arrow on her bow. "Din...Nayru...Farore...Guide my arrow....Bless it with your light..." Zelda pulled back, and the arrow started glowing with a golden light. "Light Arrow" she whispered as she shot the arrow directly at Squall. He blocked it with his gunblade....which immediately slammed back into him with an amazing force. The gunblade hit his chest...and he proceeded to fly backwards...right out a window...and right into the ocean below them.

"Well...." Zelda gasped. "This world is enhancing my powers considerably....I wonder why...." Zelda walked forward and picked up the strange weapon. "Hmm...I could use something more close-range...if only I could figure out how to use it....oh well..." Zelda put the weapon in the side of her belt and walked onward.

FFOS6: Starman DX

Hero of the Day

Systems on-line.


Status: Upgrade. Power level at 15,000%


Psi-abilities on-line. Starstorm Alpha enabled.


Targets too numerous. Lock-on not possible.


Sub-routine 2 enabled. Spectrum analysis performed.


Critical targets acquired.


Engage targets.


Destroy.





The press of bodies was overwhelming as the Garden suddenly became abuzz with activity. The intruders had been classified as a high-level threat after the few first encounters left students bloody and battered. Even the mighty disciplinary committee had had trouble with one of the trespassers. The girl had dispatched so easily it was almost comical.

Not all of the unwelcome guests proved to be as bellicose as the raven-haired youth. Some were indeed fighting alongside the Garden’s defenders to suppress the more violent intruders. The blond elfin boy was one of these, engaging a man with a strange mask on in single combat. The green-clad young man seemed to be slightly overpowered by the other combatant, and it was only getting worse as they fought.

Fight it! I know you’re strong enough to break the Mask’s control!

The other’s expression was a mix of pain and hatred, as many conflicting emotions fought on his face, the battle being a mirror of the one being led deep inside his being.

Leave! he cried with an anguished voice. I won’t be able to hold back its power much longer!

He stopped attacking so suddenly that Link almost stumbled into him. Leo’s eyes shone brightly with a dark and unholy light. His mouth split in a big, menacing grin.

You should have listened when you had a chance. There won’t be much left of you after I’m done…

He lunged at the blond swordsman with his blade over his head, aiming to crush Link with a downward blow. Sparks rained above their heads, as the Master Sword held firmly to the onslaught, despite the Mask’s considerable power. The combatant gritted their teeth and parted, each taking a step back before leaping at each other once more. They made several passes in this fashion, each time nipping and nicking one another, Leo’s distracted manner being the only thing that kept him for dominating the exchange.

As he made another pass, the former White Knight noticed a disturbance in the air. The Mask had given him the ability to attune to sources of power, and the one he had just sensed was quite significant.

He barely managed to dodge the tremendous blast of energy fired his way. The boy had not been so lucky. His body was flung to the far side of the corridor, landing with a resounding thump.

Such base tricks will not work against me hissed the Mask. You will pay for your lack of respect!

A harsh whisper came from the direction of the spiky sliver figure.

*bzzzt* Only the Master deserves respect. *bzzzzzt* Die.

The Mask was able to follow the displacement of matter and energy, but the body was much too slow to respond. Leo’s back exploded with pain, and his world became darkness…

The silver construct loomed over the fallen warrior. It knew he would not stay down for long, since it could feel the Mask’s power. It had yet to determine why, or more specifically, how, it could ‘know’ or ‘feel’ in the first place…

What the?

Who are you? You aren't my designated junction.

Junction? Wha? Why can I hear a voice in my head?

I am Shiva. Who are you?

Commander Driscoll, USN Military... and why are you in my head?

I am a Guardian Force... I am Shiva, the Ice Maiden.

Are you.. magic?

You could say that, yes.

Are you... powerful?

Yes, that I am/

How can I use your power?

You wish to junction yourself unto me?

Is that what you call it?

Yes

Then yes.

A blast of cold air hit Driscoll, as his body filled with an intense sensation of cold - which faded, into a throbbing pulse of power, running through his entire soul.

"Is... this the power of Shiva?"

Aww shit! This is the first time I've got this far into FFO for days. Meh....

Lenna darted away from the carnage behind her. She had been brutally attacked by three young SeeDs, but had been saved by a mysterious stranger with a wand.

'Who the hell......?'

Slowly, she set off, looking for her friends from the last round. There were battle happening around her, but Lenna still felt light headed and did her best to steer clear of trouble.

Coming down a long corridor near a dazzling fountain, she saw the shrouded figure that she had met when travelling with her slightly eccentric but incredibly friendly and generous companion Mog in the last round. He was accompanied by a stunningly beautiful and vibrant young woman, who appeared to know where she was going, and was showing him the way.

She ran towards the strange pairing.

'Gogo wasn't it? You're Mog's friend?' She said, rather desperately.

The figure nodded.

'Mind if I tag along for a bit?' She asked tentatively.

FFOS6: Zelda

Zelda walked toward the fountain, whose waters were turning ever redder.

Cloud was right back at the gold Saucer....there's too much pain here...people getting hurt..... Zelda's thoughts couldn't last for long though, as she was hit in the back of the head by an angel frisbee, and knocked backwards into the blood-stained fountain.

"Ouch..uunn...what was that..." Zelda turned to see a robed man and a girl dressed in blue looking at her, the girl with her arm outstretched and perparing to fire another shot. "Hey!! What'd I do to you? I don't want to hurt anyone!!!"

The girl looked at Zelda angrilly. "Then why'd you hurt Squall?!?!" Zelda thought for a minute, "You mean the guy that attacked me?!"

Rinoa prepped her Shooting Star once again. "Yes! He was just defending garden..." She shot it at Zelda, who dodged out of the way and prepared an arrow quickly. "Ice arrow" she said to herself as she shot it straight at Rinoa. The arrow found its target, and completely froze Rinoa...and the man next to her....and most of the water in the fountain.

"Uugh...I've gotta be careful with this magic...its too powerful in this world...." Zelda walked to the frozen Rinoa, noticing she'd dropped something moments before the arrow had hit her. "Hmm...what is this? It would seem to be some kind of weapon...", Zelda attached it to her arm, and let it fire once. It shot, went a few yards and then came back to her. "Hmm..this could prove quite useful.."

And with that, Zelda walked off to try to find Link and Relm....

The Swordsman had explored the area around the main hall, and he was still amazed at the look and feel of the place.

So different…

He had managed to drive back the few locals who had attacked them, but stronger ones were being sent each time. He didn’t mind the challenge so much, since it kept him ready and alert for any of the other participants he might stumble upon.

A scream.

Noooo! Leave me alone! I told you already, I’m not coming with you!

A strong swooshing sound was followed by several cries of pain as Angela released air blasts at the approaching fighters. The blue-clad SeeD cadets recoiled from her attacks and kept their distance. A few of them looked a bit silly as they stood before her with their palms outstretched, a look of extreme concentration on their face.

It’s not working!

You just saw what she did! Keep drawing until you can fire something back!

Stop wasting your time and just charge her!


Three of the seven cadets took up their weapons and ran towards the girl.

Randi slammed into the first just as the SeeD was getting close enough to take a swipe at Angela with his lance. The young swordsman kicked his opponent hard in the stomach, sending him crashing into the two who were coming right behind him.

Thanks! said the young woman. They were starting to get on my nerves.

No problem. I’m just glad I finally found you. I’ve been looking around for you for a while now.

Really?


The young man nodded. At least he had found someone in this madhouse that he could trust.

A chorus of shrieks of pain sounded from beyond the pair as an explosion rocked the ground. The cadets went flying in all directions along with pieces of debris. Randi threw himself onto Angela, shielding her just in time as a large metal plate slammed into his side, missing its intended target.

You’re hurt! She rummaged her small pack. Here, eat this chocolate. It may not seem like much, but it’ll heal you up a bit

He smiled and grabbed the treat from her hand, opening it and munching it down as he got up to inspect the damage.

What could have caused this?

The sudden look of fright in Angela’s face made him follow her stare to the spot where the explosion had occurred. Stepping out from the wreckage, wispy strands of smoke parting before it, was a silver creature. It had the shape of a man, but it was entirely metallic and covered with spikes.

Get behind me whispered Randi.

But you’re hurt.

Doesn’t matter. You need space to cast spells, so you’re better off behind me anyway.


The silver thing kept advancing on them until it got to a distance that was much too close for the duo’s comfort. It didn’t move, and from its position, it seemed like it was staring at them.

Angela spoke up. We appreciate your help back there. Is there anything we can do for you?

The was only silence.

And then a harsh metallic whisper.

*bzzzzt* Yes. *bzzt* You can perish where you stand.

The words didn’t come to them as too much of a surprise. Everyone had been gunning for everyone else lately. The speed and direction of the attack, however, were totally unexpected. The machine disappeared from their sight, but Angela was suddenly struck with a shock as her magical essence was being drained from her.

Randi turned, but it was too late to do anything. A kaleidoscope of spinning stars burst onto the pair, exploding with enough force to knock them senseless.

The silver robot inspected the gaping hole that was left from the blast. He had not killed them. They were too strong for such a simple attack to be so effective. But they had done something to him that no one had ever managed to do before.

They made him want. They made him desire.

He had wanted to kill them. He had desired their destruction.

‘He’? ‘Him’? Something did not compute…

"Eat hot white...stuff...punk!"

WAAAAHH!

Leo lined another up in his sights. Him...yes, he was evil.

WAAAAHH!

Wasn't he, as well?

WAAAAHH!

Who was this? A native, looking right at him, holding a gun similar...oh, CRAP, a gun similar to hi...

WAAAAHH!

Leo jumped aside shortly before the blast reached him. He emerged from the centre pool, dripping wet and gripping tightly to his broadsword. The native...what the hell was that hat? That hair? No matter.

"Who the hell are you?"

"General Leo Christophé. You are?"

"You don't know who ah ahm? Why, ah'm Irvine Kinneas, the greatest sharpshooter in Garden," he drawled with an insolent grin "if ah do say so mah..."

Leo barely had a chance to move aside as he whipped the shotgun out and sent two rounds aimed straight at Leo's chest. Leo jumped aside, and the rouds grazed his shoulder.

"...self." His face was deadly serious now. "Now, you gonna gimme mah gun back?"

"SHOCK!"

The blast caught Irvine full on, sending him reeling against the wall. Leo started to sheathe his sword, when the smoke cleared, and Irvine struggled up, adjusting a slightly charred Stetson.

"Alrighty then. If y'all wanna play it that way..." for a few seconds his face took on a vacant cast, as if he was searching inside his head "...aw crap, all I've got is Carbu-"

WAAAHH!

Leo blew the smoke from the Exeter with a grin, and bent down to examine Irvine's unconcious body. Spilling out from his pocket were several small stones.

This place was so drab. Everyone was dressed the same tasteless, bland way. The walls were all pastel. Pastel! Didn’t they know anything about fashion? About the way colors could mix and mingle to produce such wondrous effects?

Apparently not… She had walked out into the Quad, and the silent clash of colors made her a bit squeamish.

Geez. Not even the Empire demonstrated such bad taste. I mean, sure, Kefka was flamboyant and all, but at least he knew his facepaints.

Grrrau?

Hm? Oh, just talking to myself. What do you think of this place?

Rrrr. Smell… strange…

Like disinfectant, right?


The wild boy stared at her with a confused expression.

Nevermind. C’mon, let’s go take a look over there!

They made their way to the edge of the area. As they moved away from the bulk of the building, the duo was greeted with a magnificent view of the ocean. It stretched as far as the eye could see, sunlight playing softly over its sapphire surface.

Look! Look! It’s so beautiful!


Waterrr… not nice…

No one’s asking you to dive in, Gau. Just look at it!
She sighed. Maybe someday I’ll be able to paint something that inspires as much peace and tranquility as this…

Relm good at paint! Relm paint pretty picture like this! Grrrau!


She giggled. Thanks! I’ll try no to disappoint you!

They leaned on the railing, gazing out into that wonderful infinity.

A prickle.

The wilds of the Veldt had taught the wild boy to pay attention when his body acted this way. He felt a chill run up his spine. This was not good.

He flung himself to the side, bringing the girl with him. The railing besides them burst out into the air, trailing smoke as it made its way down into the water.

Gau! What’s going on?

Relm stay here!

Gau!

Stay!


He raced out of the small space between the railing and the building where he had left the girl, sprinting and leaping in an erratic pattern to keep his enemy off-guard. But the silver thing just looked at him, following his movements with what passed for eyes, not budging one bit.

The wild boy had had enough of this. He was having such a nice time with his friend, and some big, ugly monster just came in and blasted them? No! He wanted to make Relm happy, and no one was going to get in his way!

Stopping in front of the monster, Gau raged. He had seen a giant turtle spout fire from his mouth in what looked like drops of flame, so he decided to do the same. Calling up his amazing energy reserves, he let loose with a barrage of fireballs. The superheated cloud created by so many explosions made the boy’s eyes water, so he leapt back, out of the way of the burning sensation. As the haze cleared, the silver construct was nowhere to be seen.

He went back to the spot where he had left his friend, hoping he could make up for this interruption. He froze, eyes staring wide. Relm was lying in a spreading pool of blood. He ran towards her, panic slowly rising in his heart.

Relm! Relm! Are you okay?!

Her breathing was shallow, but she was unconscious. His whole body burned, but he thought it was just his feelings of outrage towards what had just happened. When he woke up later, he wasn’t able to tell a what point he had joined her in that dreamless sleep…

The robot stood over their battered bodies, but he was not looking at them. He was contemplating the endless sea. He was considering the fact that this whole place was nothing more than machinery suspended in the air. Machinery that he could tamper with.

The cold blue ocean rippled as the wind marked its passage. An ocean as cold as the inside of a grave…

Angela stumbled several steps back, trying to recover from the attack put against him by the strange robotic creature. The spiky monster made of silver kept advancing towards her. Randi lay unconscious behind the monster.

"Damn it", Angela thought, "there's no way I'll get a spell cast in time." Quickly she concentrated her thoughts on a different option. She wasn't a fighter, but she wasn't carrying that rod just for show. "YAAA!" she screamed, as she launched an attack towards the creature. In a split second, the two contestants landed their blows, and parted again. Angela felt a new, burning pain, and with a quick look confirmed that one of the monster's spikes had cut her a wound in her leg.

"Obnoxious life-form. Your death is inevitable." the creature's metallic voice surred. The creature prepared for a new attack, obviously aimed at finishing her off. Angela took a step backwards, but at the same time, her wounded leg betrayed her, and she fell down on the floor. The monster advanced, Angela tried to roll into safety, but to no avail. Suddenly, where the silver creature had been, there was a flash of red, and she could hear a voice shout: "DEATH SPELL!" A mighty blast of magical energy threw the creature back, and then there was silence at last.

"Death Spell?" Angela thought wearily. "Only one person has ever learned that spell and-"

"How badly are you wounded, Princess Angela?" the voice broke through her thoughts. She could hear some extent of worry in the voice, even with his blurred senses. She opened her eyes, but unable to see nothing but a figure of red, as her eyes started to turn over.

"Who are you? You can't be Koren..." she tried to say, but incapable of forcing the words to leave her lips as her fatigue overcame her.

"...Koren would have never called me... "Princess"..." she thought, and fell unconscious.

Ifrit: "They have... Crabs!"

Ulty: "I shall junction myself unto my ass!"

Driscoll could feel his body, brimming with power. He flexed his arm, and felt his muscles ripple, as the GF flexed with him. He smiled, then grinned, then threw back his head, roaring with laughter.

"Finally... I have the power.... to summon... summon... SUMMON SHIVA!"

A blast of cold air flew through the room again, coalescing into a white mist. The wall to Driscoll's left began to slowly sparkle, as a coating of Ice began to form on it, misting over the ceiling, and the rest of the room slowly. A gust of snow filled the room, and with a shower of ice crystals, coalesced into the form of an icy maiden, crystalline in form - almost transparent.

Shiva looed down at Driscoll, and he hair billowed out behind him.
"You.... have summoned me. But you are not the one. Your intentions are not pure. Why should I serve you?"

Driscoll blinked. This was not what he had expected. "You.. refuse to obey me?"

"I do."

And at that, something snapped in Driscoll's head, as the power was wrenched from his body, snapping the link between them. Shiva looked around, then giggled. "I'm free... but I cannot stay for long. But I can have fun before I go..."

...and with that, she burst through the wall, leaving a frozen ice panel behind her. Shiva burst out into the courtyard, smashing a spear of ice into the action outside...

...some were caught in the blast...

-----

OK, so it's a major attack. Sue me, but I'm not gonna mention everyone hit in a major attack.

So..

One vote to Randi
One vote to Ayla
One vote to Lutz
One vote to Rune


Oh, and there is now ice spreading out over one section of the garden.

"Damn," Locke winced in pain as he applied a disinfectant to his arm and wrapped in in a makeshift bandage. "Well, that should hold for a while, not a bad job if I do say so myself." This had not been Locke's day so far. First, a very strange "knight" had attacked him, sufficiantly humiliating Locke. Then in a battle with another swordsman, the entire group was suddenly charged by a beast that looked like Odin. "Oh well, at least I managed to get a few hits on my attacker before all of that chaos broke out."

Sighing, Locke stepped out of the bathroom stall. Much like the ones in Vector, only much cleaner, they had seemed like a decent spot for Locke to hide until he could get give some attention to his wounds.

Immediately upon stepping out of the stall, Locke saw a warrior clad in black charging towards him. "Not again, what's with this place?" Locke wondered. He easily dodged the charge, and managed to get his boomerang off, knocking his attacker onto his back. "Can't I get a moment's peace?" Locke wondered allowed.

FFOS6: Ayla

Yay, Balamb Garden!!

----------------------------------------
Ayla woke in a strange room, lying on a white bed. She looked sround to see a plump woman watching over her.
"Ahh, you're awake."
Ayla sat up and held her head.
"You were hurt pretty badly out there, you musta got caught up in some of the comotion. Can you say your name for me?"
Ayla stood up and removed the bandage from her head. She acknowledged the question, but halted in her answer.
"...Ayla."
The Doctor walked over to her laptop and typed in some info.
"Hmmm, your name doesn't seem to be on the files. Are you new?"
Ayla began to walk towards the exit and the Doctor jumped up after her.
"Wait, are you new?"
"...uh-huh."
"Ahhhh, that'll explain it, the files have been taking a while to come through. You should rest for a few days so your head can heal, ok? Come see me if you have any questions."
The Doctor stepped away from Ayla and sat back at her table and continued to work on her laptop.

Ayla left the Doctors room and walked out into the strenge new place. The walkways were filled with many familiar faces from the previous rounds, and many, many new ones. Most of them seemed to be wearing a uniform of some sort.
"Oh, another new recruit without a uniform huh?"
Ayla turned to see an oriental woman, dressed in one of those strange uniforms, standing behind her.
"Come with me, and I'll get you suited up."
The woman grabbed Ayla's arm and pulled her through the crowds of people. usually, Ayla wouldn't have allowed herself to be forced somewhere, but she was still dizzy from ehr head injury.

"There we go, now you look like a real SeeD!"
Ayla's headache and dizziness cleared and she looked about the room. It seemed to be soem sort of dormitory.
"So, what do you think?"
Ayla looked confused until she realised that she didn't feel like she usually did. She looked down to see that she was dressed in one of those strange uniforms. Ayla looked shocked and tried to unbutton the jacket and take it off.
"No no no, you've gotta leave that on, it's the uniform."
The woman button her jacket back up and her brushed Ayla's arms.
"Now off you go, dinner is being served in the cafeteria. Cya around." Ayla left the room and walked down a similar corridor which led from the doctors room, and she ended up back in that huge room with the walkways. She followed the direction of the path until she saw a bright sign. 'Cafe-ter...tery? terii...teria!' Ayla thought. 'Mmmmm, woman said dinner in cafeteria. Ayla want food' Ayla entered the cafeteria and sniffed around for the food. While she was glancing about, she noticed the same woman whom she seen in the last Battleground. That same woman with the orange dress and blue hair. 'Ayla know her from somewhere.' Ayla thought as she examined the woman. The strange woman caught sight of Ayla watching her and stared back at her.
'Is that... is that the Cavewoman??' the woman thought...

Angel's Fear

OOC: sorry i'm so late. family problems >_<

heh, a lot of votes against me, and it seems like i've been thrown into another scenerio i hadn't planned for. -_-

(guess i am a threat after all )

Randi was a little shooken up from all the blows laid on him during this round. Everyone was attacking randomly as if they weren't thinking anymore. Their primal instincts had taken over. The sorceress, Angela didn't have any heal spells and he knew he should conserve candy, so he was left with what little fight he had left.

Why am I wasting my time searching for these people. I should be defending myself against the slaughter. This is a tournament after all.

The entire time, Randi had been persuing his past. Looking for something to ease the pain of his adventures. The candy wasn't enough, it was time for him to face his fears and become what Fate had intended him to be. He had to finally accept his ROLE as a Mana Knight, and bring order to the chaos.

"I'm sorry, Angela. I have to be on my own," Randi said. "The man named Hawk is looking for you. You may already know, but there are others like you, here also. I suggest you find them and solve the puzzle of the Mana Sword. My past depends on it." Randi placed a candy in her hand and closed her fingers over it. "Take this. You never know when you'll need it."

"Thank you..." Angela said, then paused for a moment. "I hope you find what you're looking for, too."

Randi gave Angela a brief salute and winked. "Don't worry about me, no matter what happens, I've already succeeded." Randi slowly turned and walked away down the hall linking to the central office.


OOC: can't really work it into my story.. But i should probably make use of these counters.

Counterattack on Starman (if it's legal)

Duran - FFOS6

Don't want to mess with other's storylines, so...

--------

The battle raging on between the tournament participants and the mercenary force SeeD had been raging on for some time, and Duran was always in the thick of it.

Moving from skirmish to skirmish, the newly-christened Knight was pushing the extent of his new abilites to the limit, being able to move almost twice as fast as he had previously, and being able to take more punishment before getting tired. Usually, he would move into a small pocket battle and completely overturn the tables, then gradually move to another battle after he was ready. But, it was time that even he needed a breather, being continously outnumbered. The Knight had then hidden himself in one of the classrooms on the second floor, to recover his stamina.

Duran lay inbetween two of the desks in the back row, having found a comfortable position that hid his entire body from most eyes, unless someone made a careful inspection. Tilting his metal visor downward, the young warrior fell asleep, mental alarms placed in his head should someone come near his hiding spot.
