Holy High - IC III - Open!

[Azmodeus]

Quetzalcoatl smiled at Azrael. "It's ok, I won't judge you." He sat down on the stone pillar that he eroded and watched the fight, still. His glance went to Lux. "Should we go help him?"

Azrael

"Well right now he's being controlled by big, bad, and nasty so freeing him would be a good idea right now!" Azrael yelled down his finger and shoulder getting sore from shooting so much

"Well right now he's being controlled by big, bad, and nasty so freeing him would be a good idea right now!" Azrael yelled down his finger and shoulder getting sore from shooting so much

"Alright, I will take over then, if you don't mind. You can go and talk to him." He walked over to Azrael and took off his glasses, stuffing them down the pocket of his skinny jeans. He pointed towards the big bad and fired energy bullets from his fingers.

Azrael

"I'm good, I can handle this. help figure out how to break him free" he returned to shooting a little slower of a pace now

"Ok then.I'll just go over to your friend to make sure nothing crazy happens." He suggested.

[Syrixces]

Hyperion

Hyperion stood back, visibly shaking, the stress, exhaustion, everything he had physically and mentally endured, coming back to him, making him feel sick. No, not feel. He, was sick. Sick inside. Sick in the mind. Part of the times.

Staring down at the frozen Lux, Hyperion held up both his pulsing red hands, shaking. I can fix this. I can fix this. One hand changed tow white, while the other slowly pulsed green, atomic, and radioactive power, emanating, melting the eldritch ice, slowly.

I can fix this.

But I can't fix myself.

Raven

Raven paused, blinking slowly. Light. He could see light up ahead. That, was a very good sign.

He struggled up through the meaty, wet, gorey crevice, pushing his way to the surface, and surfaced in a wide, sleek, crimson lined chamber.

The Throne Room.

Tharizdun

Tharizdun grinned, and snapped his fingers, disappearing, and teleporting a foot to the left, resulting in Hamiri and Adam slashing at each other. Ah ah ah, he scolded, lashing out, and kicking them both forwards, stumbling into each other. Clapping his hands, massive walls of spiked eldritch ice surrounded them, slamming inwards.

How about some skewered Angel shittake?

Wheeling, he grin faltered, noticing something out of place. But he quickly let it return to his face, sending bolts of eldritch lightning out towards all of his other attackers.

Bah. Children. All of you.

[Prusselanden]

"Hm?" Quetz formed a forcefield around the two before the wall of ice could hit them. "Shittake-A type of Japanese mushroon commonly put into hot pot or roasted. Has nothing to do with skewers or kebabs. You probably meant "Shish kebab", I believe." He blocked the eldritch with an elastic force field, causing the attack to bounce off of it with ease. "Please correct your vocabulary next time."

Azrael

Azrael folded in his wings dropping down to dodge the Lightning. He landed next to hamiri. "well what do we do now?" He asked realizing his attacks weren't doing anything besides poking the bear.

Tharzidun

Hamiri and Leliel/Adam barely dodging each other, and both turned toward Tharzidun. Hamiri struck first, looking to slash Tharzidun across the chest.

In the meantime, Zeruel flew behind Tharzidun, his own sword drawn, and now he took his turn to get him from behind. We have to wear him out first...then we'll finish him... he thought.

Hyperion

Patriah joined Hyperion in trying to break Lux out, using his sword to chip away slices of ice.

Still, the Archangel remained where he was, holding the ice together. When he heard Hyperion breathing on the other side, and he felt the heat that was creeping through the ice, he only pressed harder against the ice. As he did so, it remained firmly in place, so Hyperion had to continue to struggle to break in.

Inside, Lux was still pleading for help.

I do not want to be alone...please, help me...

Why is this so hard? Why can I not reach any of you?...

Why am I so weak?...

Yet outside, he still remained under Tharzidun's control. "...Stay away from me...That is all I ask...I...will kill you..." He sounded exhausted as he spoke, however, and even as he spoke his knees were becoming weak.

[Azmodeus]

The Twins and Sephroth

The twins smoked out again once Phobos was healed, this time getting a friend from the underworld. "Hi Sephroth ,time to come out of your demon nest!" They grabbed him and smoked back to Tharzidun's realm. when they got there and materialized stephroth had chains wrapped around their necks.

Sephroth glared at the two brothers "wake me up like that again and I'll send your souls back to Tartarus! ...now what do you want?" he let the chains retract up his sleeves

The twins rubbed their necks and pointed at Tharzidun "that guy there hit him"

Sephroth grined wickedly. "gladly...by the way I'm the king of Greek demons and that synchronization thing creeps me out." Sephroth drew his sword and ran into the fight. He threw a chain forward the tip hooked into the ground and when he retracted it it threw him forward. As he approached tharzidun he threw a fireball in his face and slammed his sword into tharzidun's knee before retracting the chain again pulling him out of hitting range

Azrael

Azrael decided to help get lux chipping away at the ice with his sword

[Prusselanden]

Quetzalcoatl yawned to straighten his jaws. People who didn't know this would have most likely mistaken the yawning for boredom or sloth. But he was engaged in neither right now. Twirling a strand of dark teal hair in his finger, he thought.
One way the move I am about to perform will be effective, the other outcome is that it is suicide. A constrictor never lets go, people say, but will it be enough?
He decided not to.
True, attacking him in my heartless form is suicide...hell, attacking anything in this form is suicide...
He instead went to help anybody who might have been critically injured in the battle. He went over to Lux and investigated his condition. "Mind control? Hm..."

[Syrixces]

Hyperion

Hyperion was shaking. Inside and out. He felt sick.

Sick in the mind.

Sick in the times.

Groaning, he changed, noticing that his nuclear energy couldn't really effect this eldritch ice, it format, its formula, so otherworldly to him, it was like comprehending the incomprehensible.

Instead, he used God's first given weapons.

His fists.

Fists of a god. Fists of The Sun.

Raven

Raven peaked around the corner, and found himself in a massive, armory like room. Weapons of all kinds lined the walls, and armor was in nearly every wall socket. From combat armor, and AK's, to Roman Legionarius, every variety of weapon was on display.

Raven grinned, and cracked his knuckles slowly.

He, was gonna have some fun today.

Tharizdun

Tharizdun snarled, and caught the blade in hand, the metal bending under his grip.

Yes, because after all, no one has tried a sword before.

Grinning, he launched a savage punch into her throat, and lashed a kick into her ribs, before whirling, and grabbing Zeruel's skull in his palms, squeezing.

Oh, come onnnnnnn. This is just sad.

Grinning, he squeezed until hearing a cracking noise, and tossed the angel at Quetzalcoatal.

[Prusselanden]

He caught the angel gently and slit his wrist open, letting the blood gush onto their injury and healing them before laying them down on the ground. "That was a sadistic injury, but I think you'll be fine." He took Azrael's place. "Oh. Looks like I'll have to go on the offensive now. Oh no."

[Luminesa]

Tharzidun

Hamiri and Leliel/Adam barely dodging each other, and both turned toward Tharzidun. Hamiri struck first, looking to slash Tharzidun across the chest.

Grinning, he squeezed until hearing a cracking noise, and tossed the angel at Quetzalcoatal.

Hyperion

Lux heard Hyperion beginning to punch at him, and he felt it in the vibrations of the ice. As the ice and his arms absorbed each blow, he held the ice closed. Yet with each punch, he got weaker. Eventually, he simply slid to his knees, keeping a hand on the ice regardless. "...Why? Why can you not leave me alone? Why must you continue like this, why must you continue to attack me?! Does anything I say mean anything to you?! Must I truly kill you, to get you to leave me alone?!" he cried, shakily. He then released more ice, turning the ground under Hyperion's feet to a slick sheet of ice.

Xavier noticed it, however, and he began to fire on the ice, trying to melt it. He then looked over at Hyperion. "Get on the side where he's not holding it up. I'll take him from this side, you get him from the other side, but be careful," he warned him. He had a feeling that while Lux was falling apart from being strained in so many ways, his ice powers were only getting worse.

In the meantime, the Archangel was slowly freezing now, himself. Staying in the ice prison, and using his ice powers so extensively, was chilling him to the point in which he was slowly growing colder and colder. It was becoming harder for him to move, and while his powers were still working, it was becoming harder and harder to fight back.

In the meantime, Patriah continued trying to slice him out, sensing from inside the ice prison that Lux was despairing. "Ugh...there's gotta be a quick way to get him out! Whatever's happening, he's fading in there!" he shouted to his other two teammates.

Tharzidun

Hamiri blocked the punch to the throat, but at the same time, she could not block his kick. She stumbled back hard, falling on her back for a moment. "Ugh..." she muttered, putting a hand over her ribs. Yet she only took a moment to recover, before she stood again and watching Zeruel go flying into Quetzalcoatl. "...Well, that wasn't nice," she muttered, wiping dirt off her dress. She then whirled back around toward Tharzidun, and she summoned a group of shadows to repair her sword. Once it was re-sharpened, she flew at Tharzidun again and began to slash at him repeatedly, aiming for the face and chest.

While Hamiri fought, Zeruel rose and decided that he needed to perhaps upgrade himself, in order to help defeat Tharzidun. Thus, he began to heal himself, and when he felt better he began to transform. His body grew huge and beast-like, and suddenly he looked like a giant griffin. His eyes glowed green, and his powerful lion's body loomed over Tharzidun. "Now, try to dodge this, foul demon king," he told him. He then flew at his opponent, looking to snatch him in his beak.

Patriah noticed this, and he was shocked. "WHAT IN THE...When did he learn to do that?!" he shouted to Joaquin.

Joaquin shrugged, waiting impatiently to get a shot at Tharzidun again. "That's not my department," he spoke, with a shrug.

[Prusselanden]

"A beast form? Good for you." Quetz gave him a thumbs-up and went over to Lux. "Hey you-" He started to erode the ice with strong gusts of wind. "Come out from there. Your mind is stronger than you think."

[Syrixces]

Hyperion groaned. He was growing tired, exhausted from the constant drain on his powers. Muttering to himself, he teleported to the other side, and went to work with his nuclear powers, chipping away at the ice, only for it to grow back, until an idea popped into his head. What if........

Focusing on a single atom of the ice, instead of a whole chunk, he slowly transmuted it into Uranium. He then repeated it with a second, while his energy form fought of the ice. Surrounding the two molecules in a layers of lead, he grimaced, and turned to the others overlooking it, frowning.

Take. Cover.

He split the atoms.

Raven

Raven looked down at the sword in his arms. Clarent. Or at least some alternate version of it. Black and gold, it shimmered with its hateful rage. The four blades. They were all there. All of them.

Time to put them to use.

Tharizdun

Tharizdun just groaned, catching Hamiri's blade in hand again, shaking his head, and tossed it aside, the blade clattering along the ground. Snarling, he free-hand back-slapped Hamiri across the face, cracking bone. Snarling, he turned, whipping her around, and pulled her high over his head, bringing her spine down over his knee, like a twig, right in front of Patriah, before turning, and whipping at Zereul, grabbing the forearm of the beast, and twisting it, snapping the bones.

I am unlimited strength! You have no chance! Give in! Lux saw the sense in this!

Snarling, he howled with laughter.

He, was playing God.

[Prusselanden]

Quetzalcoatl rolled his eyes at Tharizdun. "You have no idea how ridiculous that is. Ugh, Aizen monologuing-the very thing I ran from Mexico to escape "

[Luminesa]

Hyperion groaned. He was growing tired, exhausted from the constant drain on his powers. Muttering to himself, he teleported to the other side, and went to work with his nuclear powers, chipping away at the ice, only for it to grow back, until an idea popped into his head. What if........

Snarling, he howled with laughter.

Hyperion

Xavier saw what Hyperion was doing, and he freaked-out. He knew instantly from spotting the sudden glow radiating off the ice that Hyperion had turned it into something dangerous.

And explosive.

"What are you doing?! Bombing it?! You're going to kill him!" Xavier shouted, as he backed away.

Leliel/Adam kept to a distance himself, though he also showed a bit of distress in the frown on his face. If Hyperion did hurt Lux...

Patriah jumped back, and in the meantime he saw Tharzidun about to snap Hamiri's spine across his knee. "HEY! WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU'RE DOING?!" He flew over to them and slashed Tharzidun across the face, causing him to lose his grip on Hamiri.

In the meantime, Hamiri's spine did not snap, but she was certainly hit hard there, and if she fell on her back from that height she would have been paralyzed.

Luckily, Arael flew over and caught her. Are you alright? he asked, seeing the pain on her face.

She nodded. "Good thing you and Bunny are fast...otherwise I'd probably be a lot worse-off right now..." she thanked him.

"EVERYONE BACK-UP, NOW!!!" Joaquin shouted, moving far from the sight of the coming explosion.

All the while, Lux remained inside, and when he realized what was happening, he hugged his arms and bowed his head, waiting for the end.

...Inari...

[Prusselanden]

"You still have potential, you see. The world can't let you die yet..." A force field surrounded Lux. "You have someone to go back to, don't you? If you really care for them, might as well try to make it through this for them."

[Luminesa]

"You still have potential, you see. The world can't let you die yet..." A force field surrounded Lux.

He knelt where he was, hardly hearing him. No matter what Quetzalcoatl did, the force field was not going to help. Hyperion was surrounding him in pure uranium, and when it exploded, it was going to be painful.

Xavier grabbed him and threw him away from the uranium, knowing exactly what would happen if he got too close. "Stay out of the way, or that will kill you! Everyone move! NOW!!!" As soon as he screamed that, he and Patriah moved back alongside the others.

"Poor guy..."

Hyperion

Hyperion snaped a look over at Xavier, a withering gaze coming clear form his bright white form.

It's two atoms on unenriched Uranium. It'll hurt him, but it won't kill him. I'm mostly worried about radiation, but I've already given him some lead in there. I need you guys to get back, so you know, no cancer. Chill.

Focusing hard, he found the two atoms, pushing deeper, past orbitals, down to its core, and pulled a proton, from the very center of each.

Boom.

The ice, never stood a chance.

Raven

Raven stood tall, four swords strapped across his waist, the magic in them, humming with power. Striding out into the hallways, he took Clarent in one hand, and Excalibur in the other, the other two at his waist.

He was gonna have some fun tonight!

Tharizdun

Tharizdun laughed, as he caught Patriah's arm, twisting it to an impossible degree. Flipping over the Mage, he grinned, and twisted the arm back with him, behind the mage, pressing down on Patriah's back with his boot.

Why, oh why, are you still trying to use swords? Why do you think that, 'this particular time you cut me,' is gning to be the winning time? It doesn't work like that, little man.

[Prusselanden]

"Ok, you are really starting to get on my nerves, no offense." Quetzalcoatl appeared behind Tharizdun and splashed a cup of Pulque in his face annoyingly.

[Luminesa]

Focusing hard, he found the two atoms, pushing deeper, past orbitals, down to its core, and pulled a proton, from the very center of each.

Boom.

The ice, never stood a chance.

Raven

Raven stood tall, four swords strapped across his waist, the magic in them, humming with power. Striding out into the hallways, he took Clarent in one hand, and Excalibur in the other, the other two at his waist.

He was gonna have some fun tonight!

Tharizdun

Tharizdun laughed, as he caught Patriah's arm, twisting it to an impossible degree. Flipping over the Mage, he grinned, and twisted the arm back with him, behind the mage, pressing down on Patriah's back with his boot.

Why, oh why, are you still trying to use swords? Why do you think that, 'this particular time you cut me,' is gning to be the winning time? It doesn't work like that, little man.

Tharzidun

Patriah glared up at him, and he smirked angrily, as he saw Zeruel was still standing over Tharzidun, huge and majestic as a griffin. "I believe that's enough of that," he muttered. He then bent down and picked-up Tharzidun in his beak, and he crunched down on him with it until he began to crack.

Speaking of cracking...

Hyperion

The ice exploded, right when everyone had gotten back. Inside the explode was Lux, who had been caught in the blast. The heat and the radiation had reached him, and a soft thud was heard, as the smoke died.

"LUX!" Xavier rushed to his brother's side, now, ignoring the radiation risk. He could heal himself if he needed to. All he wanted to know was if his brother was alright.

When he found him, the Archangel was lying on his side, his eyes closed. A small trickle of silver blood came from the side of his mouth and from his left temple, and his wings were badly broken. They were missing large chunks, and were unusable.

Xavier knelt next to him, as did Leliel/Adam, and they examined him. The former touched his skin, which was freezing-cold due to how much he had used his powers. Yet he also felt something else. As he moved his long, soft white hair, he saw something awful underneath it.

A huge, violent crack across his face. Silver blood leaked out of it just a small bit.

The only thing that told the group he was alive was the tiny haze of cold mist that trickled out of his mouth and nose.

...Hmph...he survived...but he probably shouldn't have...interesting... Leliel/Adam muttered, content that Lux had survived.

Yet Xavier was too anxious to be happy. Lux's physical state was awful, and his psychological one might possibly be worse. He slowly began to try and warm the Archangel's body, as he held him in his lap, trying to reverse the effects of Tharzidun's magic.
