Restoration of Corrupted Mentality[/h2]

The black flames rushed and roared at the madman who above them, attempting to lick at his heels and consume his very soul. [color=royalblue][b]"The flames of Hades come to consume the fallen! Flee you pathetic hounds, run into the River Styx with your tail between your legs and let the underworld consume you!"[/b][/color] But the maddened Servant could not comprehend the severity of the situation, he merely saw a new hazard to fight amidst. But all games must end, for Tesla saw Shuten leaping into the air towards him, graceful as always as she landed in his arms with nary a thought. [color=a187be]"Sweetheart, I've grown boooored and it's getting hoooot! We're leaving now!"[/color] Tesla stood still in the air for a moment, trying to comprehend the idea of leaving before all the defiant mortals had perished. But the fire raged on, the inferno's crackling and screaming cutting through his maddened state.

Perhaps it was the fumes finally getting to him, perhaps it was a side effect of Disengage activating, maybe it was even Shuten's presence so close to him, but the Mental Corruption that he had induced upon himself so many hours ago was beginning to wear thin. The situation was finally registering, the world was ablaze and everyone was dying. But there was no time to dwell on this, while he may have helped start the initial fire with his inaction, other parties had turned it into the mass of grudges and curses that it was now. Tesla's eyes narrowed a tad as he remembered the day his lab burnt down and with it most of his livelihood. No, now was not the time to dwell on past (future?) memories. [color=royalblue]"Indeed, it is time to go."[/color] Tesla leapt away from the fire just as it snapped at his position, creating steps of lightning as he dashed towards Shinto Town.

Their arrival was not long after, utilizing even an Agility of C was more than enough to get them across Miyama and the river within minutes. Tesla scanned the horizon, several red lines appearing over each bridge he saw as his mortars changed targets. And then they began to fire once more, pounding the bridges into shrapnel and sawdust within seconds. Slowly he descended to ground level, halting his assault on the bridges and leaving one left standing, the very one he stood before now. [color=royalblue]"You may want to go find your Master, make sure he is safe amidst the fires of Hades. My invite to the Church is still open, but for now I must take care of things."[/color] Tesla gently set her down, his eyes glazing over slightly as he established contact with Suzaku. [color=royalblue][i]"You may want to stay inside the Church for now Master. It's the farthest you could possibly get from the fire.'[/i][/color] And then he began his work.

Not much time passed before a strange machine with various Tesla coils and wiring stood before him, pumping out a strange gas into the sky at an rapid pace. Indeed, this machine would induce rain, a heavy rain to try and impede the flames as much as possible until someone else could handle them. Tesla would watch the fire for now, but if it showed no signs of stopping, he would have to take matters into his own hands. It was as he thought this that he noticed a man falling from the sky. Now this could only be a Servant of course, no vehicle of flight had yet been invented so it was impossible for this to be a regular person. He heard a faint cry in the distance, perhaps an activation of a Noble Phantasm, it was impossible to distinguish the words from this distance.

It mattered not. What mattered was what happened next, what could only be described as a world being born into existence. It was as if the moon had suddenly fell upon Earth, crushing everything underneath it into mere atoms. Tesla was almost ready to call upon System Keuranos just to shoot it out of the air, but he held back. While he mourned for the inevitable loss of lives coming from this force of destruction on course with Miyama, it would be enough to stop the fire. And so Tesla braced for impact as he watched a world fall.
