ZEKE

Damn! Not even an inch of respite! Pinned by the blade that churned him from the inside, his reaction to Aruna's sword was far too delayed. It was only the hardening he applied on his limbs prior that saved his limb, but the blade still lodged next to his bone painfully. It was like a demon's fang, nibbling and slowly sinking into his massive arm through the hard exterior.

"Haaah.... kh.... Has asking nicely not even come up in that skull of yours? Cruel bastards..." He flexed his muscles to try and pin the demon's sword inside the hardening, all without stopping to try and dislodge the angel's blade. But that tenacity wasn't shocking. No. It was the intensity of his glare... pointed straight at the one outside the box. Even as his thoughts were being violated, even as his mind was splitting, even as the whole world raged against him and cursed his existence.

He was still smiling.

"Even if your fate's set in stone, you still have a responsibility to do everything you can. That's what it means to be a man." His shadows bubbled and took the shape of birds... only to melt and crash into one another as their life waned immediately. Behind him, the sun was setting through the wrecked hole he appeared in, overshadowing him slowly through gorgeous orange rays.

Was this the end?

"You're so... fat. Fatty uncle. You take up all those dreams, and bonds, and people and shove them all in your mouth! If you keep eating like that, then one day you'll get your fingers on someone else's plate. Then they might punish you..." There was a cruel glint to the brightness of their eyes now.

"You better be careful! Or someone might reach in your belly and yank everyone out. Then they'll stuff you in a chest and push you right into the bottom of the sea." They laughed, and it wasn't so much a threat as a warning.

If you keep going like this one day you'll lose, and there won't be any more story.

I'm not going to die. Dying is the one thing I'm horrible at. I can't die... I have to get to that place no matter what. I want to see that other side no matter the cost!

"EEEEEH!...Are you even trying?" Valerie huffed and tapped her right in annoyance, her red eyes sharpened just a touch as fearsome pressure crashed down on the man who had belittled efforts so.

"You- You.... You little rascal.... Do you have any idea how much effort I put into getting the colors to match, Huh DO YOU? HELLA CUTE MY ASS.... I wanted to impress you alright! And you just stand there nodding like a dummy and repeating what I said earlier. DID YOUR BRAIN TURN TO MUSH FROM ALL THAT MUD???"

I... I want to do fun things, unpleasant things, annoying things, even they're all just painful to deal with. If I'm going to struggle, I'd rather do it my way.

I want to live my way, no matter how damnable it is.

But I don't want to do it alone.


--- Quote from: Kotomine_Rin on April 05, 2015, 03:33:30 PM ---"See? It's much better to smile like that! Looks great on you too! Besides, when you're hurting, it's always better to have a good laugh. Sure, crying your heart out helps, but to smile and laugh is simply beautiful. Tears don't suit you, so..."

Being alone is painful. Being alone is annoying. Why? Why? Why!? Why am I always the one who's left behind!? Why...

Why didn't I save them?

...wait. Why am I thinking that all of a sudden? Who'se... what memories are these?


--- Quote from: Kotomine_Rin on May 22, 2015, 11:40:42 PM ---Smiling, he waved goodbye and disappeared in an infernal explosion. In that one instant, there was anger. There was fear. There was sadness. There was regret. There was hope. There was joy. There was despair.

He accepted them all, he accepted who he was and what his life had amounted to. And so, the pirate vanished amidst a wave of destruction.

No... that's just father. But I'm me. This is me. He can't be me. I am only myself, belong to myself...


--- Quote from: Kotomine_Rin on March 20, 2017, 12:27:38 AM ---A skeletal fist slammed on the counter, nearly toppling the wine over. His hand was only clenched harder than his teeth.

"No." He growled, and for a second the flames coating his body burnt, hot enough that even the man near him might feel its burning fire. "I will not give up on what is rightfully mine. If death is to plunder anything from me, I will simply have to steal it back. That is what it means to be a true pirate. Do you understand!?"

--- End quote ---

I want to journey and thrive eternally! Quit complaining! You rascals should be grateful you can pave that way to my dream! You're just aliens, you're not even from my world!


--- Quote from: Kotomine_Rin on June 24, 2017, 04:57:46 AM ---"Hah! Then again, if you're not going to come quietly, I guess you are asking for it after all. But relax, if you do kick the bucket I'll make a toast in your honor nonetheless." He added with the same friendly tone as always.

"It's time to sing the most wonderful song..." The pirate grasped his head and the flames flickered with teeth grinning so widely you could almost make out his battle-hungry face. "A song composed of your death screams!!"

--- End quote ---

I never changed.

But that damnable tower... it took everything from me.



Zeke looked down. His feet stood over a mountain of corpses. Some he recognized, others... were probably friends. Others nothing more than a reflection of his warped self.  Moving his consciousness again and again and again had warped and split his mind... but even so, he kept fighting. Even if I'm a bastard, my ambition is just as good as anyone's. I'm... we're not losing to those bastards any longer! We will overcome our fate our way. I will clutch at my eternal paradise with every fiber of my being!

So I'm not dying. Father... begone from my world.


"I promise I'll come back, you can bet my soul on that. Cause I'm the strongest pirate of the seven seas. And this is a promise I ain't breaking."
Oh, and totes sold the knife. Did it for a mountain of cocaine too.


I won't die.

"We're not going to lose... to some second rate slaves of God." ZEKE... the collective itself grit its teeth and fought on to deny the two with everything he had. Unable to remove the blade from themselves, they ripped themselves out of it, severing a chunk of their side and bursting with the full power of their body - to burn and activate their magic.

To escape the cage and shatter it with power beyond their limits!

Bern:
Lulu

"What did you say?..."

Any thoughts of informing him, of informing Aruna that she'd acquired the information fled her mind as that being, no creature uttered such blasphemous words. Her mind grind to a halt as a white hot fury ignited from deep within.

"HOW DARE YOU?"

Her voice echoed through all of their minds as her mental restraints crumbled and all her anger poured into both of them. It wasn't something that could be comprehended with words, or even with imagery. No it was nothing but pure unfiltered emotion, her glowing rage and it was all laser guided on one thing.

SLAVES.

This...this.... this couldn't be allowed.

The Angelic blade swelled with power until it cracked and burst apart. But instead of fading away, it was being eaten from the inside by something, it exploded violentl, pushed apart by something BIGGER growing from within.

The true Blade of Reckoning.

No.

Streaks of darkness perverted it's form and it's purpose had changed. No longer was it a tool of justice but rather-

Lulu appeared in a burst of speed that eclipsed even what she'd been capable a second ago, she grabbed the it the new sword and swung it at the heart of hers, no their anger...

It wasn't her blade anymore, it was their blade now, a blade fueled not by justice but vengeance.

Kotomine_Rin:
ZEKE

I see it. I see it now. The origin point. It's so clear...haha...hahahahaha! His grin lashed out wildly as he exploded backward with the power of the sun. He never even experienced this speed himself - and yet...

SWISHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!

For a split second, breaking out of the box slowed him down. And thus, slashes flew forward with unparalleled speed to kiss him all over with a furious slash. This massacre of wounds was nearly fatal, and with that weapon... certainly, enough to put him down like a dog.

My magic... it's gone...!?

Each of these wounds was certainly deep. The light was cut with one strike. Then came others. Without his flames, his speed and maneuverability was short lived, and before he knew it-

His body fell even further away. Or rather, her slash cut and pushed him out of the way. Enough to delay the inevitable by a meager amount. By turning his gravity and body absolutely limp, he executed this strategy to avoid the worst of her strikes. The tension of death was about to sink deep in his heart at any moment. But with how damaged he was by this weapon, his time was running out fast.

Don't be so mad... over bedroom talk...! Without being able to perceive her, he'd try to unleash as many organisms as he could... as a cloud of ink-like beasts that would cover everything and conceal him once and for all. But beyond that...

He wasn't concealing his thoughts. On the contrary, he was sending them directly into Lucy, flooding her with more and more.

A slave to passion, a slave to light, a slave to love, a slave to the beyond... this whole world... all of us... we're nothing but PIECES on a CHESSBOARD!! I can see them... the strings that chain us and bind us to their control. But I can't reach the Gods even now! I cannot even perceive what's beyond this prison!! That is why my people fell to that thing.

AND YOU'LL FALL TOO, BECAUSE YOU'RE IN THE WAY OF MY DREAM!!

Bern:
Lulu

"Shut up, shut up, shut up...."

SWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOSH!

Raven wings fluttered as the black angel dissappeared from this only to reappear right in his way, blocking Zeke's escape completely.

"SHUT UP!"

SMAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAASH!

It wasn't her sword that met him but rather her boot, in her white hot fury even something as simple as swinging her sword to finish him was beyond her and she lashed with the first thing that came to mind.

Filth like him deserved to be stepped on and ground to dust.

yinsukin:
Aruna

"Lulu wa-"

It was too late.  Aruna was blown backwards as the heat overwhelmed his body.  He let out a hissing sound as his blood literally began boiling from the heat.  The tension from the sheer force of their wills clashing was thick enough to cut with a knife, but powerful enough that a knife would only be able to scratch such a thing.  Falling into the floor, he let his portal take him back into the safety of the basement.  That entire room was mush.  It was only a matter of time before the entire place would be destroyed.

Slave... he had a lot of gull using that word.  There was mere moments.  As long as they were in the mansion where he had portals set everywhere, he could still act.

"STOP!" he yelled, chains emerging from every postal.  The total number of chains conjured into that room came in the hundreds.  The dark chains shot into the sky, gathering more and more as they went until there were thousands of chains.  Compared to the two it was like a dog chasing a jet but perhaps by the time it reached them, there would be too many chains to break.
