Sonnelion stayed silent as Reku asked him how he could've had anything to do with Terium, then after an insult thrown Reku's way, Reku seemed to have a realization. he looked at Terium and noticed his face seemed to show a look of pleasure at reku's rage.
Terium felt...pleasure seeing that look on Reku's face, now...to bring the horror. and so...he changed his voice to one that was VERY familiar to Reku. "why Reku...you know exactly whom." the voice he chose, was that of Riku, who Sonnelion had met once. Sonnelion's eyes grew wide in slight horror, but then also got extremely pissed and showed rage.
"Y-you bastard...you absorbed a Child?!" Sonnelion Yelled with a seething rage in his voice. his golden aura flaring around him, a crater forming under him. Terium merely smirked, and his face actually changed. the transformation of his face filled Sonnelion with a sense of horror and rage. the face he used...
Was Runi's. "do you see the hopelessness of your situation...I've devoured many, their faces capable of being puppeted by me." his face turned back to normal, as was his voice. "do you feel angry Reku? you should be glad, your family is now part of me...of TRUE perfection! in fact...they were the key to it...who knew that little Riku held that one Gene I needed to acquire this form? quite amazing really." Terium stated with a smile filled with malice. his eyes showing amusement and cruelty. Sonnelion was completely pissed off, but managed to restrain himself.
"War never changes. Only the instruments of war and the people who play in it."
"What is my true name? What Destiny awaits one such as I out here, outside of Lordroth?" Quin
"You can tear me down all you want, I will Never give you the satisfaction of my Death! I am ASPARA! FEEL MY FLAMES AND BURN!" Aspara
"I need time to think." Sonnelion
"Orkses neva lose if we run we'll jus' come back fer more! If we die it don' count!" Barrigan
Giant chunks of rock were coming out of the ground and beginning to rise into the air due the energy Reku was putting out increasing. His fists tightened so much that his nails cut into his skin and it began to bleed. His veins began to bulge from his skin and his dark aura exploded to life once again. Reku gritted his teeth and his entire body was shaking with fury. “Perfection you say….?” He said, getting into his fighting stance. “WHAT IS SO PERFECT ABOUT YOU!” He shouted, flying directly at Terium, unable to hold himself back. Once he got to him, he would attempt to punch him in the stomach with all his might before throwing a volley of punches at him.
Terium let the punch hit him, it caused a shockwave. then the volley of punches came, he just let the punches hit. none of the punches had ANY effect. Terium just continued to have that cruel smirk on his face. Sonnelion glared at him, but saw that none of Reku's attacks were doing anything. "heheheh, how pathetic, but..I must say, your rage and pain pleases me greatly. oh and such a dark ki your showing...been delving into the darkness have we Reku...tut tut tut, that is quite naughty boy. but...it does intrigue me..." he would then proceed to attempt to grab Reku by the top of his head, and whisper into his ears "the darkness I sense in you is quite...pleasurable" if he succeeds in grabbing reku, he would, after the whisper, try to use his other hand to punch Reku in the gut, hard enough to make him spit out blood, but not hard enough to kill or pierce through the body. he has no want to kill the boy afterall, he shows much potential. he would then drop Reku onto the ground. and stare at Sonnelion with a dark gaze. he's fast enough to do all that to Reku too quickly for Sonnelion to react.
"darkness....what darkness are you talking about Terium!?" Sonnelion demanded, he had to keep himself restrained, as much as he wanted to help Reku, he knew, that they didn't stand any chance against him.
"it seems little Reku has turned to the dark side...you know what I speak of Sonnelion." Terium stated with an evil smirk. "afterall, he may one day...become, like...me." he stated before letting out a cruel, twisted, mocking laugh. Sonnelion continued to growl as he spoke, a the laugh he just lost his temper, he lunged at Terium, punching him in the face, Terium didn't even flinch, and grabbed Sonnelion by the neck, "I think another scar is in order..." the monster before them stated with a cruel smirk, before he choked Sonnelion just enough to make his hands try to make Terium let go, then, Terium used his other hand's nails, to carve a visible cut on Sonnelion's face, of course, he didn't want to blind Sonnelion of an eye, so Terium carefully carved it, using his ki to ensure the cut would scar. Sonnelion screamed in pain while this happened. and in order to ensure Sonnelion doesn't die, he made sure to remove some pressure from the neck, all so he could hear Sonnelion scream even louder. then he punched Sonnelion in the gut, and let go, making Sonnelion drop to the ground, holding his face while panting.
then Terium looked at the downed Reku "ah but don't think I forgot about you..." he stated with a cruel smile.
"War never changes. Only the instruments of war and the people who play in it."
"What is my true name? What Destiny awaits one such as I out here, outside of Lordroth?" Quin
"You can tear me down all you want, I will Never give you the satisfaction of my Death! I am ASPARA! FEEL MY FLAMES AND BURN!" Aspara
"I need time to think." Sonnelion
"Orkses neva lose if we run we'll jus' come back fer more! If we die it don' count!" Barrigan
Reku found himself lying on the ground barely able to move, choking on his own blood. He barely had the strength to stand just after that one blow from the murderer. He became more furious as Terium kept trying to compare himself to him. Reku wanted absolutely nothing to do with him. He began to watch helplessly as he started beating and torturing Sonnelion. He spit out some of his own blood in order to give his body a way to take air in and out. ss
Terium went to pick up Reku by the head again, he wanted to put a scar in a different place...across the nose should work, "a scar should be enough motivation...lets hear you scream." the bio android stated with a cruel grin as he held up a finger with ki coursing on it to ensure the cut he leaves scars. and so he would begin carefully carving the line across one side of the face to the other, across the top of the nose. symmetry of a scar would do afterall, Reku had been turning to the dark side. Sonnelion struggled to get up and looked at what Terium was doing with anger in his eyes, still bleeding at that.
"B-bastard..." Sonnelion stuttered out in pain.
when he finishes leaving the cut on Reku, he would then proceed to drop the half saiyan and state "Let this serve as motivation. get strong, become a challenge for me to face....and Reku...you have much to learn about the darkness and if what I've seen at this very entrance is any indication, I'd say that these mountains may hold quite the power...." he then walked towards the exit of the town that would lead further into the mountains. "go further into these mountains, if you insist." he stated before letting out a cruel laugh as he disappeared into the distance, into the foreboding mountains ahead...
Sonnelion shakily got up, having to use the great sword to hold his balance. "D-damn that bastard to hell!" he stuttered slightly but still yelled out in rage, he was knocked out of super saiyan form, but his silver aura still caused some rocks to fly a bit. then he heard movement and saw a black knight walking towards them, he looked at the guy and shook, there was no way he could fight the knight now.
"calm thyself, I watched thee's fight." he knight bent his knee "you both fought well. I know not what that demon was, but the one thee both fought was one that reigned terror a thousand years ago."
Sonnelion relaxed slightly upon seeing the knight had no intentions of fighting. "why did you fight us?" he asked calmly. the knight looked at them
"we fought thee, because we were worried thou outsiders were not ready for tis land. that outsider demon and thee both hath proven us wrong by being able to match that older demon in battle." the Knight went to Reku. "I'd recommend thee leave tis place for now, till thee recovers, I shall let the guards know to let thee by when ye come back." he told them both. knight knew neither were in any condition to fight at this point.
"War never changes. Only the instruments of war and the people who play in it."
"What is my true name? What Destiny awaits one such as I out here, outside of Lordroth?" Quin
"You can tear me down all you want, I will Never give you the satisfaction of my Death! I am ASPARA! FEEL MY FLAMES AND BURN!" Aspara
"I need time to think." Sonnelion
"Orkses neva lose if we run we'll jus' come back fer more! If we die it don' count!" Barrigan
Reku screamed in agonizing pain as a cut was driven across his face before being dropped to the ground, leaving the blood from his face ride down his cheeks and form a puddle under the side of his head. As Terium talked, Reku’s rage grew, but could not be expressed as he was too weak to move. As the monster left, Reku hated every second, wanting to go after him so bad but knew that he couldn’t defeat him. Tears began to flow down his face, mixing in with the blood, turning it into a transparent light red. He heard Sonnelon and the Knight talk before the latter came over towards him.
He didn’t care what it said, it was their fault that he wasn’t in prime condition to take down his family’s killer. His mental state was so worn out if anything else happened it would be driven to the point of madness. He slammed his fist into the ground in anger, and repeated to do so, with more strength in every punch. ‘I will kill you, I will kill you, I will kill you..’ Those four words echoed in the back of his head repeatedly as that was all he could focus on. He hated Sonnelion for dragging him into this, he hated Terium for taking away his family, he hated himself for being weak, he hated these knights for being so bloodthirsty, he hated it all.
That’s when it happened. The ground began to rumble as a light shot up from the depths below. A white, almost ghost like entity came out and went straight for Reku. A voice-no, voices spoke in his head.
You should’ve just let me claim him, Lyssa. He was half-dead anyway. Or better yet, drive him mad and then let him kill himself.
You know I don’t like to use my gifts in such a way, Thanatos.
You’re too kind.
And you’re too bloodthirsty.
I’m Death. It’s my job to-
Who cares, we found the one we were looking for. Now, we can finally destroy everything in sight!
That’s not what they are supposed to used for.
You can’t be serious. We called them the Rings of Chaos for a reason. You can’t just...
The voices faded into nothingness, as did the conversation. The rings continued to swirl around him continuously until it separated, concentrating around his hands and feet and solidify into four separate circular objects before disappearing almost immediately afterwards.
Sonnelion noticed the rings appear, 'the hell...' he thought to himself, the knights has their shields ready, apparently they recognized the rings.
"by the bed of chaos...." one of the knights stated looking at the rings. "calm thyself warrior." the knight was ready to defend himself if need be. if tis man went hollow....well, at least he is weak enough now to put down if need be.
"Reku, calm down". Sonnelion stated trying to calm reku as the black knights helped walk him into a safe building that had somehow managed to stay completely intact, inside, was a bonfire.
"rest here, the heat of tis bonfire will heal thee." the knight said as Sonnelion sat by the bonfire, which seemed to have strange healing properties, odd for a fire with a sword in it to be able to do that...still, he wasn't going to complain, he could feel his wounds healing already.
"what was this land originally called?" Sonnelion asked curiously.
the knight sighed, "tis land, is Lordroth" he stated with a tone of sadness and bitterness.
he noted the sadness, and let his wounds heal. he got up, and looked outside, it was day time now. that battle had apparently lasted that long. he shook his head, and sat on a bench outside.
(Topic ends with Sonnelion looking at Reku being on the ground, still injured but with those new rings.)
(3,100 PL gained for Sonnelion, 30 Zeni gained)
(2,900 PL gained for Reku, 28 Zeni gained for Rex)
