Pit against eachother...

[Nightmare]

Here's the fights detailing the group being pit against each other as part of a trap while infiltrating the genetic research facility.


First up is Majeh vs Rion.

* It seems the group fell unconcious sometime between now and when they fell. Majeh awakens to find himself alone, in a large, dark room.
* Majeh stands up and dusts off his robe, he looks around to take in his surroundings, creating a ball of white fire in his hand to light up the room.
* Upon lighting the room, he notices that in the middle of the room, there appears to be a large barrier cutting the room in half. On the opposite wall, was Rion.
<Rion> Ugh... what the hell did I do, land on my head....?
* Majeh walks up to the barrier and punches it.
* The barrier doesn't budge.
* Rion turns his head. "...Oh boy."
* Majeh looks at Rion, gritting his teeth slightly at Rion's remark.
<Rion> ....
<Rion> Any idea what happened after we fell?
<Majeh> No.
<Rion> Fair enough....
* Rion punches the barrier as well.
* The barrier once again doesn't budge.
* Majeh looks around the room again, looking for a door or an vent.
* The room appears to be rather bare. No entrances or exits.
<Rion> ...Well this sucks.
<Rion> Even if this barrier goes down, looks like there's still the issue of getting out.
* Majeh creates a scythe and slashes at the barrier.
* After a few minutes, a loud voice can be heard booming through the room, as though from a speaker "Ladies and gentleman... Thank you all for coming."
* Rion looks around, hearing the speaker. "I've got a baaaad feeling about this..."
<The Voice> I can see you're all awake now. You'll find yourselves mostly split up from the others. It's time to play that little game we spoke of earlier...
<The Voice> We're going to test, to see which of you eight is the strongest specimen!
<Rion> ......
<Majeh> ....
<The Voice> So we're going to hold a little tournament. You've all been paired up with your first opponents.
<Rion> ......
* Majeh looks at Rion.
<Rion> I knew I had a bad feeling about this.
* Rion looks at Majeh.
<The Voice> Keep in mind though...
<The Voice> Once the barrier goes down, you need to fight. Either one of you, or neither of you leave that room alive. Spoil-sports who try to avoid fighting each other will be killed otherwise. So put on a good show.
<Rion> A death-match, huh... lovely.
<The Voice> Now that the rules have been explained, let the games begin!
* The barrier in the room goes down.
<Rion> ...Here we go...
* Majeh walks over to a wall and kicks it, gaugeing what it's made out of and it's thickness.
* The wall appears very thick and layered with a barrier between sheets of metal.
* Majeh's eye twitches.
* Majeh looks over at Rion.
* Rion frowns. "This sucks."
* Majeh growls and kicks the wall again.
<Rion> Looks like they're really not giving us many options, huh?
<Majeh> ...No.
* Majeh sighs and cracks his knuckles.
<Majeh> That's fine. Your a reploid anyway. Death for you is a simple nap.
* Rion sighs and unsheathes his sword, activating it. "Hm... good point... provided your opponent doesn't obliterate you."
* Majeh grins slightly.
<Rion> Yeah... if you think I'm gonna let that happen, think again.
* Majeh lets his arms fall to his sides. "you get the first move.
<Rion> Tch... fine.
* Rion fires a Chi blast at Majeh in an attempt to throw him off guard as he charges in his direction.
* Majeh takes a step to the side and avoids the blast, waiting for Rion's charge.
* As Majeh avoids the blast, Rion's blade comes flying in his direction via the abilities of the Lightning Amulet, lashing out before returning to Rion's side.
* Majeh flips back to avoid the attack.
* Rion pushes off the ground, lunging toward Majeh in mid-air with a sideways slash
* Majeh forms a katana in the air, blade down to intercept the slash.
* Rion follows through after the blades clash, rolling to the side of the mid-air katana and slashing again, this time sending a wave of Chi at Majeh at the same time.
* Majeh places his hand ontop of the hilt of his katana, pushing himself up and out of the way of the slashes.
* Rion fires another blast of Chi at Majeh, then swings his sword again, using the lightning amulet to broaden the arc of the swing. "Any ideas on getting out of here, yet?"
* Majeh flips again, taking his katana out of the air and flipping down to the ground. At the slash he brings up his katana to catch the sword.
<Majeh> Cutting off your head seems like the only option.
* Rion pulls the sword back once Majeh stops the sword, returning it to him. "Sure you're not just saying that to try and get rid of me?"
* Majeh stares at Rion. "Killing you won't change things."
<Rion> Well at least you're honest....
* Rion rushed toward Majeh directly this time, his sword clashing with his. "Doesn't change the fact that I've got no intention of dying here."
* Majeh pushes his sword against rion's. "..." He slams his foot into the ground.
* Majeh looks at the ground.
* Majeh grins.
<Rion> .....
* Majeh pulls his free hand up into the air as Blades rip out of the floor towards BB.
* Rion pulls his sword back, backflipping to avoid the blades as they rip out of the floor, before sending his blade at Majeh several times using the lightning chain, keeping his distance at the same time.
<Rion> You and those random swords.....
* Majeh flips back as the blades comming out of the floor block the attacks.
* Majeh holds out his free hand as a white sphere appears in it.
* Rion sends the sword backwards, stabbing it into the wall before lifting the blade upward, throwing a piece of the wall at Majeh.
* Majeh brings his katana up and brings it back down, cutting the chunk of the wall in half, the white sphere still in his hand.
* Rion fires another blast at Majeh, aiming to break his concentration on the sphere.
* Majeh brings up his katana again. "CRUSH!" He brings down his katana as it changes into his Warhammer, slamming it into the ground and causing spikes of earth to rip out of the floor and in the path of the blast, the sphere still in his hand.
<Rion> God damn... just what do you have going on there....
* Majeh eyes widen for a moment. "Done." He brings up his hand with the sphere, closing his hand around it and bringing it down as it erupts into form, creating a minigun in his hand, the barrel pointed straight towards Rion.
* Rion returns his sword to him. "STRIKE!" He then swings his sword several times, each swing lashing forward in a similar manner as with the lightning chain, but faster in an attempt to stop Majeh's attack.
* Rion then raises his hand, a glyph forming in front of it, which he aims at Majeh.
* Majeh the minigun bursts into life, letting loose bullets of white fire towards Rion, each one explosive, while shields of metal form to his sides to block the strikes.
* Rion activates the Luminate Burst, the beams of white Chi colliding with the minigun bullets in mid-air in the middle of the arena, attempting to push through and strike Majeh as well.
* Majeh growls and pulls up the minigun, using it like a shield against the beams. His katana slowly cracks and breaks down along with the shields.
* Rion continues the onslaught for a little while, getting closer before rushing toward Majeh in an attempt to slash through the Minigun and cut Majeh across the chest
* Majeh pushes himself back, the minigun getting chopped in half and shattering.
* Rion charges energy into his free hand, hurling it forward after the minigun gets slashed in an attempt to hit Majeh with a hard punch to the face.
* Majeh growls and pulls up his empty hand to grab Rion's wrist while it burns with White Fire.
* Rion grins as Majeh grabs his wrist. The flames begin to be pulled in seemingly random directions as the energy crystals of the Prism Force form around the hand Majeh's grabbing. It is revealed that the energy is going into the crystals, causing them to grow as Rion pulls his arm back, leading Majeh into the path of a headbutt as he attempts to pull away and get some distance once more.
* Majeh growls as he recieves the headbutt and skids back.
* Suddenly, a loud crash is heard, the room seeming to shake, and the dim lights flickering.
<Rion> ....Eh?
* Majeh looks up at the ceiling.
* The loud crashes continue, and seem to be originating from one of the walls. This is followed by a sudden, louder crash, and a big chuck of the wall busting through the barrier, leaving a gaping hole in the wall.
<Rion> .....
* Rion looks over at the breaking wall, then at Majeh. "Looks like there's our exit, let's call this a day, shall we?"
* Majeh looks at the hole. He grumbles quietly and walks towards the hole.

[Nightmare]

Hyperion vs Suprema;

* Another large, dark room in the base. One just like the others, Hyperion awakens, a barrier cutting off the other half of the room housing Suprema.
* Hyperion gets up and dusts himself off, taking a look around the room.
* Suprema rubs his head, "Damn trap doors... Doesn't anyone use elevators anymore...?"
<Hyperion> Yo! You ok over there?
<Suprema> Yeah, I'm fine, howabout you?
<Hyperion> Didn't care so much about the fall, I'm more of a winter kinda guy.
<Suprema> Haha, very funny...
* Suprema stands up and looks around. "Just what the hell is this...?"
<Hyperion> I don't know. Looks kinda like a prison chamber...
* After a few minutes, a loud voice can be heard booming through the room, as though from a speaker "Ladies and gentleman... Thank you all for coming."
<The Voice> I can see you're all awake now. You'll find yourselves mostly split up from the others. It's time to play that little game we spoke of earlier...
<The Voice> We're going to test, to see which of you eight is the strongest specimen!
<Hyperion> Oh boy...
<Suprema> Dammit...
<The Voice> So we're going to hold a little tournament. You've all been paired up with your first opponents.
<The Voice> Keep in mind though...
<The Voice> Once the barrier goes down, you need to fight. Either one of you, or neither of you leave that room alive. Spoil-sports who try to avoid fighting each other will be killed otherwise. So put on a good show.
<The Voice> Now that the rules have been explained, let the games begin!
* Barrier goes down nao.
<Hyperion> Huh...I thought he was gonna say "Let's get ready to rumble"...
<Suprema> Heh... Okay then... now what? I don't think he's giving us many options here...
* Hyperion takes out his gun "We use the only option we have, I guess."
* Suprema unsheathes his sword, "Guess you're right..."
* Hyperion aims at Suprema
* Hyperion fires several shots at Suprema
* Suprema leapt to the side, dodging some of the shots, one of them grazing his leg.
* Suprema then shot forward towards HZ and slashed towards his torso.
* Hyperion jumps back, avoiding the attack. He then aims at Suprema's wrist and fires
* Suprema jumps to the other side, dodging that shot, he then points his left palm at Hyperion and fires a ball of Green Chi.
* Hyperion jumps to the side, just barely getting hit by the attack.
* Suprema leaps forward, then planting his feet on the ground in front of HZ, he flips up to the roof, using green chi to bring him upward, he plants his feet on the ceiling then shoots downward toward his foe.
* Suprema slashes at HZ's head as he descends.
* Hyperion blocks the slash with the blade of his gun, he then uses the momentum to shove Suprema over to the side, following up with some shots to the torso.
* Suprema rolls to the side as he hit the ground, one of the shots hitting his leg, piercing it. He then ran forward and stabbed at HZ using one hand, compressing green chi into a small orb in his left hand.
* Hyperion gets stabbed in the arm from Suprema's first attack. He then kicks him away and jumps away from him
* Suprema landed on his feet as he skid back, he placed his left hand on the blade of his sword, allowing the Chi to absorb into it. The blade began to crackle with electricity as the Chi reached the maximum point within the blade.
* Hyperion keeps his aim on Suprema
* Suprema runs to the side, and slashes at HZ, releasing 4 green crescents crackling with electricity at him.
* Hyperion quickly casts a barrier around him, weakening the force of the attack.
* Suprema saw this as a chance, he darted forward towards HZ at full speed, and stabbed into the barrier hoping to break through.
* Hyperion quickly ducks down, avoiding the stab. He then brings the barrel of his gun under Suprema's jaw.
* Suprema releases all the green chi from his sword, a large electrical field forms around his body, damaging everything around him.
* Hyperion gets struck by the electrical field, and jumps away from Suprema.
* Suprema jumps back, bringing his sword into a ready position in front of him.
<Hyperion> Heh...pretty good.
<Suprema> Not bad yourself...
* Hyperion aims at Suprema again, and begins to charge a shot.
* A cannon formed from his armor around his left hand. He places the fire amulet on the barrel of the cannon. He began charging as well as he aimed at HZ.
<Hyperion> ...Nice trick...
<Suprema> Yeah, comes in handy in tight situations... packs quite a wallop too.
* As Suprema finished speaking, a large dragon head made of fire blasted toward HZ from the cannon.
<Suprema> DRAGON FLARE!
* Hyperion jumps over to the side of the blast, keeping his aim trained on Suprema.
* Suprema 's attack hit the wall, and as it did it exploded. The force of the blast pushing even him back.
* Hyperion is sent flying from the force of the explosion, and he catches himself on the wall, as soon as he does, he fires the charged shot at Suprema.
* Suprema rolled to the right, attempting to dodge the charged shot. It grazed his left leg and blew a chunk of the armor off.
* Hyperion charges another shot as he slides down the wall, as soon as he gets on the ground he loads a green chi shard into the secondary clip.
* Hyperion then aims the shot upwards and fires, the shot explodes in midair and several lightning bolts rain down in the area Suprema is in
<Suprema> Ah, sh*t.
* Suprema raises his arms up, and a small and weak barrier is created, it blocks some of the bolts but breaks and allows Suprema to get hit.
<Suprema> Ow.
* Suddenly, a loud crash is heard, the room seeming to shake, and the dim lights flickering.
<Hyperion> Hm?
<Suprema> ...The hell?
* Just then, a beam of light pierces one of the walls, blowing a large hole in the wall and sticking in the opposite wall before disappearing.
<Hyperion> Huh, looks like we're getting out of here alive after all.
<Hyperion> Hey, Suprema. You all right?
<Suprema> Yeah, Just a little shocked.

[Nightmare]

Kuma vs Exile

* Another large, dark room split down the middle by a barrier. This one houses Kuma. On the other side of the barrier, is Exile.
* Kuma sits up and looks around.
<Exile> ....God dammit...
* Kuma stands up and dusts off his armor.
<Exile> .....So, any idea where we are?
<Kuma> No.
* Kuma flicks his finger at the wall, launching a beam of dark energy into it.
* The dark energy explodes upon hitting the wall, though once the smoke clears, it's revealed the wall sustained minimal damage.
<Kuma> ...
<Exile> Greeeat.... a barrier.
* After a few minutes, a loud voice can be heard booming through the room, as though from a speaker "Ladies and gentleman... Thank you all for coming."
<The Voice> I can see you're all awake now. You'll find yourselves mostly split up from the others. It's time to play that little game we spoke of earlier...
<The Voice> We're going to test, to see which of you eight is the strongest specimen!
<The Voice> So we're going to hold a little tournament. You've all been paired up with your first opponents.
<The Voice> Keep in mind though...
<The Voice> Once the barrier goes down, you need to fight. Either one of you, or neither of you leave that room alive. Spoil-sports who try to avoid fighting each other will be killed otherwise. So put on a good show.
<The Voice> Now that the rules have been explained, let the games begin!
* Kuma looks at the ceiling, then at Exile.
* The barrier in the room goes down.
* Kuma summons a scythe and walks towards Exile.
<Exile> Well isn't this a drag...
*Exile pulls out the Endbringer, turning it into a swallow.
* Kuma leans foward and lunges at Exile, ripping his scythe upward to rip his torso in half.
* Exile blocks the scythe with one side, pushing it sideways and slashing with the other. "I can't help but wonder what the point in this 'tournament' is, especially if a Reploid wins."
* Kuma froms a shield of dark energy to catch the blade, then brings his scythe up and slashes downward.
* Exile moves back to avoid the scythe, before firing a blast from the Rail Buster at Kuma.
* Kuma takes a step to the side and avoids the shot.
<Exile> Damn... so much for blowing a hole in the wall...
* Kuma frowns and flips back. "The faster I end this, the sooner I can kill that annoying fool and his little clone."
* Kuma lets his scythe break apart and vanish before his eyes start glowing a violent red.
<Exile> ......Oh great.
* Exile clearly did not like the look of that.
* Kuma leans foward as a face mask closes around his mouth, steam emitting from the vents. Slowly the spikes in his helmet bend foward and steam emits from the now open vents in his helmet. The shades of blue on his armor start to flash a bloody red.
<Exile> ....Now is that really necessary....
* Kuma's eyes turn completely red and he howls like a wild beast as wings of metal form behind him, a giant scythe forming in his hands. He launches foward, bringing the scythe up and swinging downard for Exile's skull.
* Exile sighs, disappearing and reappearing on the other side of the arena. "Of all the people I had to face." He spins the Endbringer, gathering shadows before unleashing a flurry of shadow blade waves at Kuma... though he couldn't help but wonder what would happen if Kuma ran into one of those walls in his current state.
* Kuma's scythe carves through the air and rips a giant scar in the wall infront of him. He roars like a wild animal and swings his scythe through the blades, launching a wave of dark energy through them and towards Exile.
<Exile> Let's hope this works....
* Exile jumps in the air, letting the wave of dark energy smash into the wall, firing several shots from the Rail Buster in an attempt to calm Kuma down "If you think I'm gonna let myself be killed again by someone who's sounding awfully like a Maverick, you got another thing comin'."
* Kuma roars as he swings his hand, pushing aside the bullets with dark energy. Then he throws his hand foward towards Exile, causing red clawed hands to rip from the floor and grab for Exile.
<Exile> Annnnd I'm not getting through....
* Exile jumps over one hand, slashing through the other, before running toward Kuma and slashing at him several times quickly.
* Kuma swings his scythe upward in one vicious arc in a split second, sending a violent gust towards Exile.
* Exile grinned, spinning his blade as he used the power of the Wind amulet to redirect the wind right back at Kuma, with wind blades forming as the gust pushed back.
* Kuma throws his head back and roars as steam vents out of his mask and helmet, red energy violently eminating from him and casting the blades aside and carving up the ground all around him.
* Exile was knocked back by the force of the energy, but at the same time it saved hom from being slashed up by it "Jeez... what'd your creator do, make the both of you out of Dark Energy?"
* Kuma holds his hand up towards Exile, launching a massive beam of blood red dark energy at him.
<Exile> Sh*t... Shiiiiiit......
* Exile holds out the Endbringer, spinning it rapidly in an attempt to use it as a shield from the blast.
* Kuma keeps the beam going for awhile before rushing through the beam and ripping out of it right infront of Exile, swinging his scythe in a vicous arc to rip his sword out of his hand and then reaching for his throat.
* Exile watched as Kuma suddenly knocked his sword out of his hands, then grabbed him by the throat "I hope that's not... all you've got... Cause I'd be disappointed...." He said as the shadows began to be pulled toward his left arm, covering it as he formed the Rail Buster. The shadows seemed to form around the Buster, making it larger as Exile fired a powerful blast of shadows at close range in an attempt to force Kuma off of him.
* Kuma's head tilts foward, a giant hole formed in his gut. But he slowly lifts his head, staring at Exile with his hand still firmly around his neck. Slowly dark energy leaks from the wound and slowly closes it. He brings his scythe back and quickly brings it foward to decapitate Exile.
* Suddenly, a loud crash is heard, the room seeming to shake, and the dim lights flickering.
* Kuma's scythe stops inches from Exile's throat.
<Exile> ...The hell?
* Exile's body begins to be surrounded by shadows as he is pulled into them, coming back out several feet away from Kuma.
* One of the walls suddenly began to creak, and part of it started to glow a bright red.
* The wall soon bursts open in a blast of flames, melted metal spewing forth and into the room. The flames died out and the wall cooled, revealing a large smoking hole in the wall.
* Kuma stood there for a moment, then walked towards the hole, his helmet returing to normal, his scythe vanishing, and his armor regaining it's shade of blue. "How convient."
* Exile grumbles a bit, wondering just what the F**K Kuma was thinking when he did that "Yeah, no kidding..."

[Nightmare]

And finally, Nexus vs Silver.

* Nexus awakens in a large, rather dark room. He sits up and rubs his head "Ugh... What happened...?"
* Nexus climbs to his feet and notices the room is cut in half by a large barrier, and spots Silver on the other side. "Hmm..."
* Nexus walks over to the barrier and calls out "Oy, Silver. You okay? Can you hear me?"
* Silver sits up and blinks a few times, "....huh.."
* Nexus carefully draws the gladius from his back and pokes the barrier. He finds that it's rather sturdy, but it's not the kind that'll hurt you if you touch it.
* Nexus bangs on the barrier a few times, trying to break it, but the damn thing doesn't budge. "Damnit..."
* Nexus scans the walls and the ceiling of the room with his eyes. Strangely enough, there doesn't appear to be a way in or out of the room. "This is just great..." then turns back to Silver "Hey, you alright? You're not hurt, are you?"
* Silver looks at Nexus, "I'm ok..how about you..?"
* Nexus shakes his head "I'm fine... Aside from not being able to find a way out of here..."
<Silver> Where are we..? *She stood up slowly and looked around*
<Nexus> Not sure... You don't happen to have any idea where the others went, do you? I don't remember anything after falling into that trap...
* Silver shakes her head, "Nope..not a clue."
* Nexus crosses his arms and mutters to himself "Damnit... What can he be planning...?"
* After a few minutes, a loud voice can be heard booming through the room, as though from a speaker "Ladies and gentleman... Thank you all for coming."
* Silver blinks at the voice, a little alarmed.
* Nexus looks up "It's him..."
<Vinculum> I can see you're all awake now. You'll find yourselves mostly split up from the others. It's time to play that little game we spoke of earlier...
<Vinculum> We're going to test, to see which of you eight is the strongest specimen!
<Nexus> .....
<Vinculum> So we're going to hold a little tournament. You've all been paired up with your first opponents.
<Nexus> What?
<Vinculum> Keep in mind though...
<Vinculum> Once the barrier goes down, you need to fight. Either one of you, or neither of you leave that room alive. Spoil-sports who try to avoid fighting each other will be killed otherwise. So put on a good show.
<Vinculum> Now that the rules have been explained, let the games begin!
* The barrier in the room goes down.
<Nexus> .....
* Silver gulps and just stares at Nexus, saying nothing.
* Nexus sighs "How could he do something like this...?" then slowly turns to face Silver.
<Nexus> Listen...
<Nexus> I didn't want it to come to this. I still don't feel I've repayed you for all the torment I put you through in the past... But...
<Nexus> This man. He needs to be stopped. I need to stop him.
<Nexus> I have no intention of letting myself be killed here.
* Silver sighs, "..I really don't want to fight you.."
* Nexus shakes his head "I don't want to fight you either. But just as I don't intend to die here, I don't expect you to give up your life for my own goals."
* Nexus outstreches his hand "So let's make a deal. Let's give this our all, and may the better fighter win. Just promise me, that if you win, you'll see this through to the end and finish that bastard off."
* Silver nods her head, "Right..okay..," her voice was quiet and hesitant.
* Nexus lowers his hand to his side "Right..." then jumps back and moves halfway across the room.
* Silver summons her armor and her axes, and just stares at Nexus, almost as if she was in a trance.
* Nexus grabs his shield off his back with his right hand, then raises his left hand to his side, so that he could easily grab any of this three weapons quickly "Ladies first. Your move."
* Silver takes a step foward and smashes an axe on the ground, sending a weak shockwave at Nexus.
* Nexus grabs Quintessencial off his belt, raises it into the air, then brings it down, as he does so, it turns into a Khanda and slams into the ground, creating an earth energy shockwave and causing a small stone barrier to raise up in front of him.
<Nexux> You'll have to put more effort into it if you want to hurt me.
* Nexus strikes part of the stone barrier with Quintessencial, the stone that broke off turning into a spike and flying at Silver.
* Silver sighs and whacks the spike away with her axe, sending it flying right back. She was obviously playing defense.
* Nexus jumps up from behind the barrier and over the spike, turning Quintessencial back to normal and sheathing it as he did so. "So, if that's how you're gonna play, looks like I might want to pull out all the stops myself." he then reached into his pickets, and grabbed what appeared to be four boxes of playing cards.
* Silver holds her ground, not moving...
* Upon closer inspection, they appeared to be Runic Seals. Nexus held all four between his palms, pressing them together. A ball of energy appeared to start glowing around the seals between the palms of his hands.
* Silver watches, her axes crossed infront of her.
* Nexus stands upright, still holding his palms in front of his face, the energy ball now glowing brightly. "Dila--" he called out, as he thrusted his arms upward into the air, the energy ball shooting up near the center of the room like a mortar shell "--Bor!" Nexus snapped his arms to his sides, and the energy ball sparked violently.
* The energy ball explodes, sending Runic Seals flying in all directions, blanketing the floor, walls, and ceiling of the room. They were all spaced evenly apart (about 1 seal per square foot) and covered the room rather thoroughly.
* Silver blinks at that, a bit confused as to what he was planning..she flipped through the air and landed father back.
* Nexus lowers his hands to his sides, drawing Quintessencial "I'd watch where I step if I were you." Quintessencial turning into a Flamberge, then thrusting it at her, a stream of flames shooting forth from the stab, soaring across the room at Silver.
* Silver jumps up and changes in to her dragon form, hovering in place and avoiding the flames "I won't step then.."
* Nexus looks up "You'll have to be more clevar than that." the flames from his attack striking and activating a few seals on the wall behind Silver, causing electricly charged stone spikes to shoot off the wall at her.
* Silver slides around the spikes, then shoots a small line of electricity at Nexus. She had no enthusiasm in this fight.
* Nexus turns Quintessencial into a Falcion and holds it out, catching the electricity on the blade, then swinging his sword upward, launching the electricity off in bolts that go in four seperate directions.
* Nexus directs the bolts into seals on both sides of Silver, activating four seals which when activated in unison, caused two large ice spikes to jut out of the walls, trying to stab her from both sides.
* Silver moves out of the way, just barely getting grazed by one of the spikes. She flies forward a little bit, then sends another blast towards Nexus.
* Nexus taps his foot on an earth seal right in front of him, which causes a stone wall to shoot up in front of him and block the attack, then strikes the wall with Quintessencial's earth shape, spraying dozens of smaller stone spikes through the air at Silver.
* Silver lethargically tries to dodge, but some of the spikes manage to stick in to the unarmored part of her neck and side. She yelps, but stays where she is.
<Nexus> Not bad, Silver. You're pretty tough. Hard to imagine that out of all the times we faced each other in battle, this is the first time I've had a one on one with you.
* Silver nods, "..Thank you..if you were my enemy, I would be much tougher..but I just can't get in to it.."
<Nexus> I appreciate it, but we don't have time to worry about that. I'm sure you'll impress me further with a little more motivation...
* Nexus swings Quintessencial once, turning it into a Shamshir, then again, sending a blast of water across the room, activating a seal beneath Silver. This seal causes a pillar of water to erupt toward Silver.
* Nexus throws an earth seal into the base of the pillar, causing it to start freezing from the bottom up, hoping to catch Silver in it.
* Silver sighs, "..In a fair fight, you're good with those seals..," She flew out of the way of the water mostly, but it caught her tail and hind legs. She hung there awkwardly.
* Nexus points at the ceiling above Silver "Thank you." a seal above her glows brightly, then releases a blast of fire. She wouldn't be able to dodge the bulk of the attack, but it should at least free her from the ice.
* Silver takes the entire hit and falls to the ground as she is freed from the ice. She weakly stands up, though her wings are mostly charred up.
* Nexus runs toward Silver, Quintessencial turning back to it's normal shape, then raises his sword and shield as he gets close.
* Silver holds her ground and waits for Nexus to close the distance..
* Nexus gets in close and swings his sword at her "Come on, I know you can do better than this!"
* Silver sidesteps the sword, then swings her head at Nexus, "..Not in this fight."
* Nexus blocks Silver's head with his shield "Don't go easy on me. We agreed we'd both put our best foot forward." then thrusts his shield forward, trying to knock her head aside "Think of all those times I attacked you, all the times I hurt Majeh, and your other friends. Surely you've still got some unresolved feelings."
* Silver sighs and pushes harder on the shield, using all her shoulder strength, which is obviously a lot considering what she is, "..Nothing unresolved..."
* Nexus stumbles back "Surely you know how much you'll miss the others if you were to die here. My friends are the reason I can't give up. Surely your resolve is just as strong." then brings Quintessencial over his head and swings it at Silver again.
* Silver sighs, "..One life lost and another life saved..worth the sacrifice..," the sword clashes against her armor, letting her step away again.
* Nexus stays where he is and sheathes Quintessencial "What if he catches on that you're not putting up a fight?" he then claps his hands, causing two water seals on the sides of Silver to activate and send watery tendrills from the ground up to grab her.
<Nexus> What if he just kills us both because of that? Then what will you have died for?
<Silver> He won't...I'm fighting..he does not know my skill level..
* Silver allows the tendrils to grab her, sluggishly struggling.
* Nexus runs up to Silver, stopping abruptly just in front of her "How am I supposed to feel even if I do win? Knowing that you just let me kill you? And that I went through with it?" he stomps on an earth seal on the ground in front of Silver, causing a large stone boot to pop out of the ground and kick her through the air, breaking her from the tendril's grasps.
<Nexus> At least give me the peace of mind to know that I had to fight for my life too.
* Silver sighs, as she catches herself with her charred wings, "..I don't want to hurt you.."
<Nexus> Don't concern yourself with that...
* Nexus takes another stance "Because from here on in, I'm not going to worry about you. So you'd better get your act together."
* Silver hovers in the air awkwardly, just staring. "..No promises.."
* Nexus holds out his hands to his sides "Very well..." then says almost in a chant "Repeto... Terra, Ignis." as he spoke, all the Earth and Fire seals in the room lit up and peeled off the surfaces they were stuck to, and flew back toward Nexus, forming as red and yellow balls of energy in his hands.
* Nexus clasps his hands together in front of his face, the energy seeming to disappear, but there was obviously a strong energy emitting from Nexus.
* Silver waits for the attack, as electricity begins sparking on her tail blades.
* Nexus looks up at Silver "Pluvia exitium ex caeli..." as he spoke, dozens of orange balls of energy started forming above Silver.
* Silver looks up at the energy forming with curiosity.
* Nexus pulls his hands apart and thrusts his arms downward "Terra Bomber!" as he called out, the energy balls quickly took shape into steaming hot stone spikes, and began raining from the sky at Silver.
* Silver twists upwards, avoiding the spikes, then spirals downwards like a tornado, electricity consuming her body until she also resembled one. She aimed to smash in to Nexus.
* As the stone spikes struck the ground below, they lit up red hot and exploded, sending flaming shrapnel in all directions, Nexus aiming more spikes to land closer to him, hoping the explosions might throw her off course.
* Silver moved around the spikes in lightning speed, though she seemed to start slowing slightly.
* Nexus quickly grabbed his shield and rose it over his body once he realized she wasn't stopping "Crap..." then braced for impact.
* Silver closes her eyes within the vortex of energy and smashes in to Nexus with the force of a lightning bolt and a tornado.
* Nexus grunts as he's struck by the attack and sent skidding across the ground. He activates a light seal on the ground next to him, hoping that it's restorative energy will stop the bulk of Silver's attack from being too devestating.
* Silver changes in to a ball of energy and flips backwards, the lightning on her body calming down....but only slightly, her eyes glowing a bright whitish-blue. She hovered in place, ".."
* Nexus climbs to his feet panting "That's more like it...." then draws a few seals from his pocket "Hope you're ready for this one." the seals began to glow, then turn into a violently sparking energy in his hand "This is one of my finishing moves. If you take this one wrong, you may not get back up..."
* Silver nods slowly, quiet now. Her armor resembled pieces of spiked electricity rather than metal.
* Nexus pulls his arm to the side, the now white energy continuing to spark violently and giving off an intense heat. He then begins stepping forward and pulled his arm inward "Judgment Bolt!!"
* Suddenly, a loud crash is heard, the room seeming to shake, and the dim lights flickering.
* Nexus trips and throws the bolt of energy into the ground "...What the hell?"
* Nexus climbs to his feet and draws his sword quickly.
* Silver looks towards the crash, her eyes still glowing a light blue.
* Following the loud crash, a very loud, eerie creaking sound is heard.
* Silver cringes at the creaking and crashes to the ground at that, her wings giving out on her finally. She slowly stood up, as the electricity calmed.
* All of a sudden, a large metal support beam rips through the wall and crashes into the wall on the opposite side of the room, leaving a huge gaping hole in the wall.
* Nexus brings his shield up over his head as the beam crashes into the room "What the!?"
* Nexus approaches the hole in the wall cautiously. "..."
* Silver moves over to Nexus, staring at the beam as she did so, "..."
