Jensoman

A Hero Tale {Complete}

Jenso frowned as his attack didn't do much and the orb got closer, but smirked at Yzeira's comment. "Coming from the guy who keeps acting all high and mighty, trying to destroy the world, all typical villain style. Don't be a hypocrite dude!" He retorted, dashing in a wide arc around the slowly incoming orb as he moved towards Yzeira, to leave the orb far behind. He flicked his left wrist upwards, and the energy on the ground erupted into a focused geyser of flames that moved upwards at Yzeira's back. It's intention seemed only to damage Yzeira, but the white flames mainly served to spread Jenso's energy signature all around Yzeira as well in an attempt to momentarily confuse him.

He formed a spear of Ki within his right palm from the energy that he'd been charging up earlier, throwing it at Yzeira's left side while staying a small distance away from the orbs. It was set to dig as deep into whatever it would hit with it's tip, and explode in a focused Ki shockwave. It would still explode, even when it's energy was disrupted. Jenso himself could clearly see through the flames as if they were transparent for him and he could simply phase through, keeping a close eye to see if Yzeira could track him. Some of the flames shifted violently on Yzeira's other side, making it look as if Jenso's figure was emerging from the other side.

Jenso glared at Yzeira, jumping further back to get some distance between himself and the orb. He thrusted his left fist forwards, launching a Ki impact punch at it as he awaited the result while still charging Ki in his right hand. He shifted his foot slightly, and the flames on the ground began to move behind Yzeira while still out of range of the orbs.

Jenso got in a combat stance, eyeing his mother briefly as she scurried off further away. He felt relieved. He looked back over at Yzeira, keeping a close eye on the three orbs that appeared. "Honestly, I couldn't really think of a foolproof plan to deal with you, at all. I'm not arrogant enough to claim that I'm certain that I'll beat you, Yzeira..." Jenso stated. A wide smirk appeared across his face. "...But I sure as hell am going to try!" He added, charging Ki within his right hand while he channeled white flames towards the ground from his feet. It began to spread further to the right of Jenso's current position, albeit still out of reach of Yzeira's orbs. "You may have amazing power and combat experience, but in the end you're just a mass murderer. Nothing more. Keep believing that Adarine's death was just a lucky win, if that makes you feel better. My friends are far stronger and smarter than you realise."

Jenso sighed, and walked around the desk to stand beside his mother. "I would have loved to chat longer with you, but I honestly can't afford too." Jenso retorted. "You'll find that people will keep trying to win, no matter what the odds. That's more than pride, that's sheer will power." He added, launching a rocket punch into Yzeira's desk. He made sure that his fist was coated in Arki to protect it.

Jenso walked up at Yzeira, glaring at him as he approached. "Sorry bud, I'm on a tight time schedule." Jenso responded, clenching his fists as he stepped into the room. He looked over at his mother briefly, somewhat taken aback from seeing her. "...Mom.." He muttered. 'I'll need to be cautious...if Yzeira uses her as a shield, this'll be even more difficult..' He thought.

Jenso's eyes widened in surprise for a moment as his powers vanished. He'd felt this before, back when he and Bruce were within a temple a long while back. It was a familiar feeling, so he quickly realised what was going on. As Bruce appeared on the scene, Jenso couldn't help but smirk widely. "Exactly as he planned, huh?" He retorted to Nexus's words, catching the instrument that Bruce handed him. He attempted to dash past Nexus at his left side, so he'd need to turn towards him to slash while keeping himself on a small distance out of the sword's immediate reach. "Gotcha." He replied to Bruce. He'd certainly be moving slower than usual, so he chose to be cautious.

Jenso frowned, and shook his head. He got into a combat stance, somewhat concerned by Nexus's hopeless response. "I'm sorry Nexus...but I'll have to refuse. I'm sorry that it has to be like this.." Jenso stated truthfully, as he channeled energy from his feet towards the ground. It moved over the floor, remaining relatively close to Jenso. He coated his fists in Arki, and began to channel pure Ki within the palm of his right hand. He began his approach towards Nexus, feigning a quick dash past Nexus's left side to observe his response while remaining in front of him as the energy on the ground followed.

"I don't intend to just punch, Nexus.." He muttered, as the white flames within his pupils seemed to glow an ominous blue for a moment before turning back to white flames. A different colour of flame? No, it was something else. Something powerful. His voice seemed more heavy, for those few seconds, as he finished speaking. It came forth from sheer anger that emerged because of the red-coated man who'd caused the suffering of many. A great fury, that appeared after witnessing Nexus's hopeless state.

"I INTEND TO WIN."

Jenso glared at Nexus as he was pushed back, but remained resolute in his stance. "Win from the inside out, huh? When we're being controlled by Yzeira?" Jenso retorted, and crossed his arms. "I'm thinking very logically, trust me. You're already suffering when you try to say things Yzeira won't allow you to say, and I wouldn't be surprised if he could just let you die at any moment if you chose to betray him. Being put under his control would make winning impossible." Jenso stated.

"I'm not eager to die, no. But my friends helped me to get this far, including you. And I intend to do what's nessecary to win. If you can provide a way for me to accept Yzeira's offer, and guarantee that I won't get controlled by him, I'll listen. How's that?" Jenso stated.

Jenso looked into Nexus's eyes and frowned. He looked sad for a moment, but a small smirk appeared on his face. "You know.." Jenso muttered. "It would be easy for me to just give in, and agree with the offer. And it would make sense for me to fear the man who'd already killed me once. But..." He stated, pausing for a moment. "A loss isn't a loss unless you let it consume you."

With that, Jenso attempted to walk past Nexus. "I know you're only trying to stall for time, Nexus. No more delays. I know there's a very good possibility that I might lose. But my friends are fighting with all they have right now, against our common enemy who ruined our lives. We've come this far, and we're going to finish it. It's time for the Order to fall. Even if I die in the process." Jenso stated.

Jenso looked at Nexus, overlooking him completely. Was this truly his real self, now? "So I'm guessing that Yzeira ordered you to stop me, too.." Jenso muttered, and walked over to him. "And if you don't, he'll make you suffer. Right?" Jenso said, more like stating a fact rather than asking a question. He kept a close eye on Nexus's movements. He did not want to fight his friend, but he needed to get past no matter what.
