[center][color=yellow][b][h3]DIO – Positively 4th Street[/h3][/b][/color] [@gamegurugg][@invisible man][@luciansmentor][/center] Bored now but greatly anticipating some fun, DIO waited for Forneus to get mad. His patience needed not be tested, however, for the abyssal lord wasted no time complying. Various parts of Forneus's attire vibrated, and his veins glowed violently with a chaotic glare. [i]Hmph.[/i] It seemed as if the vampire's adversary was going to be building up for a while, trying to milk his magical displays for however many inklings of intimidation he thought they had. Instead, DIO looked back again at Juri, having heard her say a few seemingly nonsensical words that suited a Stand perfectly. He watched, legitimately intrigued, as there came a violet-hued flash, and behind the Taekwondo user there appeared a new form. His one mirrored Juri's body exactly, down to the tiniest detail, with the sole distinctions of color and composition: it appeared as if Yin Yang Twins' body were made entirely of a deep, purple, liquid metal. Immediately DIO's mind raced to categorize it. [color=yellow]”Very similar-looking,”[/color] he said, ignoring Forneus' staring and unoriginal clapping. [color=yellow]”I'd expect it to be a high-damage, combat-oriented, short-range Stand, no major spells or unique powers. The manifestation is unstable, but enough to satisfy me. At this stage, its best use would be to surround your own legs and arms when striking to increase your energy.”[/color] When Forneus appeared on the verge of getting to the point, DIO was forced to return his attention back to him. This action struck him as nothing less than tragic; the abyssal lord hosted a visage so petulant and braggadocious that spending time looking at him rather than Juri felt criminal. To the accusations and rebuttals of Forneus, DIO only shrugged, rolling his eyes. How much of a blusterer was this alleged demon? After crushing the cat, the vampire had been sure that the fight would begin immediately, and yet words were being thrown rather than punches. [i]N'doul is a thousand times less of a show-off, a thousand times less overinflated, and a thousand times more deadly. Were he here, he could have severed this duffer's throat with Geb and end this babbling.[/i] One thing did interest and even begin to alarm him, however. Forneus, despite not having a Stand, had gotten a clue about the World via some sort of soul-searching power. For all his idiocy and blowharding, then, Forneus would have to die. DIO stared impassively as the wind and water began to rise, an ominous storm brewing before it with a dangerous magician in its center. Though he did not respect Forneus, DIO would not underestimate him either, and because of that he would win. Gone were the days when DIO would toy with his opponent, only using his stronger abilities as a last resort and deliberately holding himself back. The rage of the abyssal lord bellowed above the raging maelstrom, and after glancing critically at his opponent's sword, DIO remarked, [color=yellow]”Finally, the fight begins. You took all the time in the World.”[/color] He snickered at Forneus, who'd abruptly stopped moving. In fact, everything had, including time. Despite this, there was no time to waste. DIO turned to his right, reached out, and seized the Overlord by his arm. The task of dragging the armored brute, even with his superhuman strength, did not come easily, but nevertheless DIO managed to position his metallic ally right in front of Forneus in four seconds. In the remaining instant, the vampire ducked around to the backside of his enemy, pushing through the water pooling around him. [color=yellow]”Time flows once again.”[/color] Everything unfroze, and to Juri, Forneus, and Kl'rt it would appear as if Overlord and DIO teleported to either side of the demonic hydromancer. Not caring what the Overlord did so long as he did something distracting, DIO reached out to grab hold of Forneus' throat, where he would freeze the blood vessels with his chilling touch in order to suffocate his foe alive.
