Holy High - IC - Open

[Free Empire of the Low Isles]

Nyx's evil red eyes flashed, a sly smile spreading across her face. "Gladly." She said, disappearing in a flurry of shadows, those of which hissed and spread, snaking around to find the nearest entity of light. She soon materialized in the radius of Hyperion, her heavy essence no doubt sensable to him. Her aura was such a thick, inky blackness that it would even be nauseating for him to be near. "Helllloooo..." She said in a creepy little voice, tilting her head slightly with an odd smile upon her face.

Hyperion's fiery exterior flashed in pain.

Everybody go. Now. I will handle this.

He turned around, a sword and shield of flame appearing in his arms.

Hello Nyx, beloved. Do not make me do this.

"Hmm, no. I think I'll stay..." Raphael says, summoning his staff to hold on to.

"No, I will help", Voi gets into a battle stance.

Mason's darker side was growing slightly more powerful.

Hello Nyx, beloved. Do not make me do this.

Nyx tilted her head the other way, her red eyes nearly glowing against her inky black hair, that smile still on her face. "Do what, kill me? We both know you won't do that." She took a step closer, just to let him feel how horribly corrupt her presence felt. The shadows on the wall behind her rose, hissing and whispering and waiting for their order to strike. "You love me too much to do that, isn't that right?"

[Finsternia]

Excellent. Now come along, my dear. But first, a task for you. I have sensed oh so many terrible Sun Gods on this land. Kill them. Kill them all.

Nyx's evil red eyes flashed, a sly smile spreading across her face. "Gladly." She said, disappearing in a flurry of shadows, those of which hissed and spread, snaking around to find the nearest entity of light.

"Helllloooo..." She said in a creepy little voice, tilting her head slightly with an odd smile upon her face.

Hades stood with Hyperion, his bident and the Helm of Darkness ready. "Nyx, I have given you a home in the Underworld and saw to it that you are given hospitality. You don't want that to disappear don't you?"

[Syrixces]

Hyperion's fiery exterior flashed in pain.

Everybody go. Now. I will handle this.

He turned around, a sword and shield of flame appearing in his arms.

"You love me too much to do that, isn't that right?"

Tears of flame slid down his cheeks.

Please, beloved. Do not make me do this. Please.

Hyperion raised his sword in shaking arms.

Please.

[Theyra]

Tears of flame slid down his cheeks.

Please, beloved. Do not make me do this. Please.

Hyperion raised his sword in shaking arms.

Please.

Hyperion, there is another way, Voi turns to Nyx with his hands now partially made of energy, "just get me close to her".

[Pot4toes]

Artemis stood back near Regalion. She onlooked the conversation, bow in hand, and aimed near Nyx. She would fire is necessary.

I'll just hold it for now,
but one wrong move and she's out.

[Castle Crashers]

Nyx tilted her head the other way, her red eyes nearly glowing against her inky black hair, that smile still on her face. "Do what, kill me? We both know you won't do that." She took a step closer, just to let him feel how horribly corrupt her presence felt. The shadows on the wall behind her rose, hissing and whispering and waiting for their order to strike.

Hyperion raised his sword in shaking arms.

Please.

I don't have a choice. A voice quietly said back behind all the darkness that had invaded her mind. She didn't get to choose. The darkness told her what to do, and it was pushing her to kill him. To enjoy it. Still, a pang of heartbreak stuck her, black tears lining her eyes for just a moment before she blinked them away. Though her smile wavered, though it almost disappeared, it returned in moments, back to it's creepy fixture. A little laugh erupted from the dark goddess. "You should've smothered me when you'd had the chance." She threw the shadows forward, the darkness screeching silently as it began to envelop the sun god, it's blackness trying to both crush and smother him. She kept throwing them forward, even as a tiny voice in the back of her head was screaming for her to stop. How could she?
Darnkess was a dangerous thing, and it had swallowed her whole.

[Charlia]

Thanatos wandered down the halls, searching for Charlotte. Something was up.

Hyperion

Hyperion clapped his hands, creating scrolls of light, and sending them off to the students.

Time to fight back.

Charlie smiled viciously at him.

"Hello, Thanatos."

[Finsternia]

Tears of flame slid down his cheeks.

Please, beloved. Do not make me do this. Please.

Hyperion raised his sword in shaking arms.

Please.

Darnkess was a dangerous thing, and it had swallowed her whole.

"That settles it!" Hades slammed the bident and the earth cracked towards Nyx and a gush of lava enveloped her. The spectral hands of the dead rose from the cracks and they grasped and they screamed at her. He travelled in an instant in front of the primordial goddess and he slammed the pointed prongs of his staff into Nyx's stomach. "Wake up or you will helplessly die here Nyx!" He said as the shadows of the Helm enveloped him, his darkness and Nyx's own clashing.

Regalion raised his head to Artemis. "You... you cannot defeat a primordial goddess at your own..." He coughed and blood was in his hand. "If only we have the same material as Cronus' scythe..."

Hyperion flares up, his light enveloping everything, separating Nyx and Hades.

[b]DO NOT TOUCH HER!!!![/b]

Hyperion looks down at the pale Nyx below him.

Please Nyx. Please.

[Syrixces]

Thanatos wandered down the halls, searching for Charlotte. Something was up.

Hyperion

Hyperion clapped his hands, creating scrolls of light, and sending them off to the students.

Charlie smiled viciously at him.

"Hello, Thanatos."

Thanatos backed away slowly.

"Charlotte, are you okay?"

[Skyline United]

Charlie smiled viciously at him.

"Hello, Thanatos."

Thanatos backed away slowly.

"Charlotte, are you okay?"

Mason appeared in the corner, eating an apple.

"She's not okay you fool. The darkness has control. I know what it's like. Having something beyond your control rip apart your consciousness, then locking it away. Leaving you with the ability to see. Only so that you can watch your loved ones burn by your own hand."

He smiled, "Of course, I could expel it from her. In my current state, as a being of pure light, the darkness stands no chance."

[Theyra]

Hyperion looks down at the pale Nyx below him.

Enough, Hyperion if you want to save her then help me, and someone keep her still! Voi drops his sword and charges at Nyx.

Nyx lay there for a moment, the shadows hissing and whimpering as they snaked around her along the ground. Though her breathing was labored, she was able to manage a rather manical laugh, looking up at him with her menacing red eyes as the shadows went to aid the two holes that had begun to bleed in her stomach. " i am awake." She said, the shadows moving along to suffocate him. "I have always been awake." The flash of light enveloped her, sending the shadows that had been aiding her screeching away, same for the ones that had been suffocating Hades. She didn't reply for a moment, though she had begun to twitch again, the two circles in her stomach beginning to form two dark red circles in her dress. She took a moment to reply, turning her red eyes up at him. "Why don't you just...kill me now..?" She asked, venom still lacing her words. "Why don't you kill me while I'm weak? While I'm defenseless? It...it doesnt make sense!" The darkness still had her mind in a choke hold, swallowing any real reason to believe he wouldn't hurt her for a reason. "Kill me already!" She hissed. "Finish the job!"

She hissed. "Finish the job!"

Mason would appear directly in front of her, "That is not what you want."

He holds up his hand and places his index finger on her forehead. A bright flash of light can be seen. "This should temporarily expel the darkness. Sadly, it will only last long enough for you to speak."

He steps back, "It pains me to see others suffer the same fate as I."

[Finsternia]

Regalion coughed and coughed, Tet trying to ease his pain. "Hyperion, a word if you may." Regalion tried to get the Titan's attention. "We can seal the darkness inside of her temporarily like how Mason did. While her body is weak, the spell will be more powerful at binding the shadows down." Regalion didn't wait an answer and asked Tet. "Can you please lend me some of your strength?" Tet nodded and they joined hands, both of them glowing in bright light. Regalion spread his hand at where Nyx is lying, runes slowing forming. Please let this work... He coughed again and this time it's getting worse.

Mason turned to Regalion, "Your using too much of your power. Don't make that mistake, you will regret it."

[Pot4toes]

"You should lay down now, you've been a great help."
She sets up a somewhat open area for Regalion to lay down. In her mind, a whirlwind of thoughts and emotions swirled.

I wouldn't be in this mess if it wasn't for Loki.
But he had a reason to leave. It's not like anyone here was helping him.
It must be something wrong with me.
I should have been kinder and more careful.
I should have...
She turned away, and a tear slid down her cheek. She wiped it, and continued helping.

"If you need anything, just say so."

[Theyra]

Voi after getting stop by Artemis, was angry at her but, when he heard Regalion's plan. He force himself to relax and walked over the Regalion and put his hand still partially energy, on his shoulder and transfers his power to Regalion.

[Finsternia]

Regalion smiled at Mason. "But who else must do something to relieve her of her pain?" He thanked the others for the energy they gave him and now the magic circle is halfway complete. He is just waiting for Hyperion to add his strength to the spell. Let the Sun triumph against the Night. Let the Blood Moon's light counter the the darkness inside the Night.

Tet is giving every strength he had to Regalion's spell and he can feel the strain it is causing to the Lord of Magic. He watched as the runes glowed around Nyx, never letting her escape until it's completion. He was busy staring at it when a hand grasped his shoulder. "You're already tired. Let me." Tet nodded at Hades and he gave his energy too, the circle now forming faster. "Tet, provide healing to Regalion. He might pass out." Tet nodded and he rested his hand over Regalion's forehead, aglow with crystal light.

She turned away, and a tear slid down her cheek. She wiped it, and continued helping.

"If you need anything, just say so."

Thor landed on the ground, cracking the concrete.

He had a serious expression on his face, "What happened? Tell me now."

[Syrixces]

Thanatos backed away slowly.

"Charlotte, are you okay?"

Mason appeared in the corner, eating an apple.

"She's not okay you fool. The darkness has control. I know what it's like. Having something beyond your control rip apart your consciousness, then locking it away. Leaving you with the ability to see. Only so that you can watch your loved ones burn by your own hand."

He smiled, "Of course, I could expel it from her. In my current state, as a being of pure light, the darkness stands no chance."

Thanatois growled, his skin growing grey, his edges growing fainter.

Mason, stay out of this before I tear your arms off, and feed them to your mother. I'm done playing your games.

He turned to Charlotte.

Which one is this? Is this you, Charlotte? Or is it you, demonling?
