Kotomine_Rin:
The Knight

Why... why am I seeing these things...? That is what he wanted to say, but all that escaped his throat was a bone chilling howl. His voice deepened, no, it didn't quite even belong to him. It was like two very different men spoke at once. But it was only one pair of eyes that glared at the demon, and Vanguard rose.

Gigantic. His entire frame cloaked Lubei's, and cast a terrifying shadow on the demon. That strength was stupendous, if it struck the demon seriously...

Out of my way. His beastly roar was chilling. It looked like his soul was exploding violently. A fist suddenly surged to strike Lubei there and then. NOW!

YOLF:
Lubei

He had multiple lives' worth of punishments to learn patience, but enough was enough. Whatever Vanguard's demons, this wasn't the place to grapple with them. Lubei's own aura flared in response to the caul of enmity, a palpable sensation of intimidation seeping out.

"Have you gone DEAF as well as BLIND?!" His massive fist swung into the knight's jaw, battering his skull like he had struck a bell. "WAKE, UP!"

Kotomine_Rin:
Vanguard

The frozen fist slammed straight into the knight's jaw.

"..."

The blackened fist erupted straight into the frozen shell. It broke through. The sound of the winds shattering were nothing against the crack of the ice demon impacting against the wall. No, there was another sound to it.

The knight had punched so hard, its joints and arm were mangled by the impact. It cracked its fingers open, cloced them, and fixed his arm with a nonchalant stare. The moment the angels got into range, a crescent slash split them all apart, slamming into the frozen ground before the knight launched himself forward. With mighty shockwaves, racing with ebony lightning surrounding him, the world-eating hound raced up the wall, running to reach the top and cleaving whatever was in its way.

Umbra of Chaos:
Uria

Oh? Was that the devil, rising from hell? Was that Satan in the pit, wings aflutter to reach the throne of God? Uria had already reached the top of the pit with a smile on their face and joy on their lips, but there was nothing gentle in it anymore. The very air shuddered in discomfort, the flora wilted in fear, the scent of sulfur and taste of salt was upon the wind. They looked below and cast the entirety of the pit in painful, blinding light. God was at the top of the world, and they were laughing.

The glow, the light, it was not simply for show. It was power. All this while, Uria had been gathering energy. "Lubei, you know he can't control himself! Let's stop him right here. We can go and do something you want to after, if you want." They thrust their hand up into the sky for a moment, then they yanked it down as if dragging the very heavens.

Light flooded down into pit like Judgement Day. All of it focused on the black figure. On his weapon, his arms, his legs, his head, his chest, his hands, his fingers, every last bit of him. An infinity of grasping, radiant limbs coming down to press Vanguard down into the depths.

YOLF:
Lubei

The draconic colossus groaned with effort, pieces of its limbs crumbling. The claws dug into stone in a steadying grip, and it dragged itself out of a body-shaped fissure in the earth, shards from the front falling off, stained by blood. Lubei scowled as it dripped down his temple, biting back curses. His voice echoed between the walls of the chasm to the source of the blinding light.

"Only stop him, do you understand?!" Lubei had to recognize the evident. Vanguard was the only one here who was talking sense, and now he was drunk and rampaging from a pain that no one or anything could get through. He couldn't reach for Uria while the knight was ready to gut him like a fish for being in close proximity or the second he dropped his guard. There must be no hesitation to stop all of them.

A frigid wind spread through Lubei's guts when he once more called upon the essence of Avici. Pillars of ice rose with smashing force, chasing the trajectory of the mighty Vanguard to halt him between their unmelting toughness and Uria's light.

But the child's terrifying surge didn't bring Vanguard to a halt... would the ice propel him higher?
