Jensoman

A Hero Tale {Complete}

Jenso attempted to move, but he could not. The burning white pupils in his eyes turned back to normal. "Heh...that's...quite the ability..." He muttered, as his body felt heavy. He frowned, clenching his teeth.

He had nothing witty to say, nothing at all. He'd failed everyone.

'Darn it...I couldn't avoid it...' He thought. He kept struggling to move, but his body refused. "Heh...good fight. Looks...like you win..." Jenso stated, waiting for Yzeira to land the finishing blow. He wanted to continue fighting, but he simply couldn't.

Jenso smirked for a moment, despite Yzeira's words to mock him. He was actually enjoying this fight somewhat, despite how much was at stake. He noticed that Yzeira was flicking his wrist, but none of the orbs near his body were doing anything. Which meant that something had to be going on behind him. Was it the clone? He spun his body 90 degrees to the left and jumped further back to stay out of reach of the orbs of the clone nearby him while being able to see what had been going on behind him.

He saw the incoming lightning orbs, and the gravity orb that still remained above him and sighed out of exhaustion. He aimed to quickly dash around the clone nearby in a wide circle to stay out of reach of the lightning orbs. He was about to reach his limit, and it didn't look like things would improve any time soon.

To make matters worse, the Ki supply within Bruce's instrument was starting to run out. 'Darn it...this guy's just leading me around by the nose...' Jenso thought, clearly struggling as his wound was still bleeding. His vision was slowly starting to blur, but he refused to go down.

He stomped briefly, a safe distance away behind Yzeira's clone with his left foot as he moved around him, leaving a patch of Arki behind on the ground. He dashed further away from it, and waited for the lightning orbs to be mostly grouped up in one spot as they chased him, and launched one focused Ki spear with more combined Ki in the middle of them before they could unite. It exploded into a huge Ki explosion, intended to disperse them all. He flicked his wrist with his right, and a white flame whip erupted from the ground, which aimed to wrap around Jenso's waist and pull him further towards the right, to the patch he'd left behind, further away from the explosion and the orbs chasing him. He prepared to disperse the whip early if needed.

Jenso dashed towards the left, devoting himself fully to avoid the first blast, while gathering Ki in his hands. He launched more Bruce/Ki infused spears at the incoming electrical current that came after. These ones were set to explode into Ki explosions the moment they touched the electrical current, or got close to it, about a good distance away from Jenso. Jenso launched them rapidly, one after the other, but he didn't launch them haphazardly. He did it in a focused manner, still dashing around the roof and not standing still for a moment. He waited for the duration of the electricity technique to end and for the sphere to sink completely into the clone's body while still throwing spears.

Jenso smirked briefly at Yzeira before his face went back to being dead serious. "Hearing you talk...is more painful than dying..." Jenso taunted, as he attempted to dash towards one of the edges of the arena in the blink of an eye to avoid the globe as flames erupted from his heels. 'Flame dash..!' He thought, and unleashed a flurry of Bruce/Jenso infused Ki spears at the two clones and the orbs that surrounded them with both hands.

Some of the spears seemed to be aimed to fly past the clones and their orbs. He felt like he was reaching his limit, but he tried to hold on. 'Can't...go down yet..!' He thought. He attempted to keep buying time until Yzeira's shield would weaken by making him think that he was actually trying to harm him, but things didn't look good at this rate.

Jenso felt the energy leave his body, and grit his teeth in pain. He aimed his feet skyward as he was flung in the air, as another rocket burst launched him straight down towards the ground again to stay out of range of the gravity sphere above him. He launched another Ki spear infused with both his and Bruce's Ki at one of the clones, and attempted to land safely with another shockwave that erupted from his feet to keep the red energy on the ground away from him. He fell on one knee afterwards, panting heavily. "I ain't...done yet..." He muttered, building up more Ki around his hands as the wound at his side continued to bleed.

Defiance

Corc nodded at Gabriel. "Corc watch Gabriel's back...If Gabriel does same for Corc!" He replied. He turned to Devlin who began to give her speech, and nodded in response as she walked further ahead. He liked the sound of that. He wanted to protect as many people as he could, and destroying the source went hand-in-hand with that very goal. He didn't seem to care about Devlin's true identity, they simply had the same goal for now. But from what he'd gathered, it seemed like Devlin would be a great fighter. The giant rested his mace upon his shoulder while holding it with one hand, to have an easier time to move around. Carrying it in front of him constantly while travelling would be tedious.

He did not mind what Lui said. It was common for people to not trust Orcs, or just any strangers in general who they didn't know very well. As Fauve reffered to Corc as a sexy beast, Corc simply seemed confused. "Corc...Sexy beast?" He simply questioned, unsure of what he'd done to be called that. He shrugged it off. "Corc come!" He assured Fauve. "Gabriel, come too!" He added. As Fauve went on ahead to follow Devlin along with Ren, Corc followed quickly. He was already gone before Dannisus offered his suggestion, and he failed to hear it as a result. He followed Fauve now, but moving slow enough for Gabriel to catch up while paying close attention to his surroundings as he heard the wind chimes further ahead. "Corc hear strange noise.." He whispered to Fauve, looking over his shoulder briefly to see if Gabriel was coming.

Defiance

Corc turned towards Gabriel as he approached, blinking as he showed him the map while Jack pointed out that he was the one who had it. "Corc..." He muttered, overlooking the piece of paper. The giant looked past the map briefly, to see what the fast approaching sound was. Realising it was Devlin and Ren, the orc simply nodded. Just survivors. The giant looked at Aelih and Dannisus, and smiled confidently. Clearly, judging from their responses, they now recognised his strength! Corc had succeeded! The giant then heard a loud rumbling noise. Was that the Boar, already? Was it faster than Corc anticipated? The mighty orc got in a combat stance and readied his mace, peering in the distance for what may have come their way.

The giant soon recognised the giant Tree golem from before who headed for the gate. And now, Fauve was speaking to him with some new clothes. Corc glared at Foeldar. "Is Foeldar up to no good again?" Corc asked the golem, still feeling suspicious of him. He turned towards Dannisus again, who really wanted to leave. "Corc agree, might be good to leave. Corc follow directions on map. Others do what they want!" Corc stated firmly, looking over at Fauve briefly. "Is Fran coming too?" He asked. After a short pause, the orc turned to Gabriel. "Will human show Corc way? Corc bad with maps!" He whined.

"Name is Corc, if want to know. Corc the orc!" He quickly said to all.

Jenso frowned, as the Ki he'd been channeling around his body focused around his feet in a small, powerful repeated cycle of Ki shockwaves to try to keep the crimson energy away as he landed on the ground, and to stay out of reach of the pull. It was a risk to touch the ground, but being pulled in by the orb in the center would most certainly kill him. He took a boxer's stance immediately upon landing, and coated his fists in a layer of Arki. He punched at any of the orbs that came close with rocket punches, one after the other, constantly switching between his left and right fist. He kept a close eye on their movements, punching only at those that got really close with a great deal of focus. If he were to aimlessly punch at them in a rapid flurry, he'd certainly miss and get hit.

Jenso glared down at Yzeira as he noticed what the rising sphere was doing to the rain. 'A black hole..?' He thought. A burst of flames erupted from his feet again, to launch himself further away from the sphere in the center, and high enough to stay out of reach of the pool of crimson energy towards another edge of the roof to a corner. He launched another Ki spear, fused with Bruce's Ki this time, at one of the tiny eight orbs in the corner closest to Jenso. He began to rapidly channel Ki around his body as well. He said nothing to Yzeira's remark, despite this intense situation. He needed to focus on surviving now, not on defeating Yzeira yet.

A burst of flames erupted from Jenso's feet immediately to avoid the tidal wave of energy and launch himself above it. He heard a sharp sound, one that he'd heard before in Feraldia when Yzeira launched a laser at him. He spun around side-ways in mid-air to avoid the laser, but it still cut straight through his left side as blood erupted from it. "Hngh...!" He blurted out in pain as he felt the burning sensation, gritting his teeth. 'Looks like he can summon a certain amount of energy from his body, which are the spheres...which he can also channel directly into either himself or his clone. And the amount of spheres he uses determines the power, huh?' Jenso thought, looking down at his foe. 'Still, I'll need to wait until that shield of his weakens if I want to try anything...'

He launched several flame balls below him with his right, which united into a flame stream on the ground which moved further to the right as Jenso came down, while making sure that he wouldn't land near the expanding sphere and the centered sphere further ahead.

He launched two Ki spears at the sphere in the center with his left to follow up, hoping to disrupt it's make-up. He kept a close eye on the battlefield, preparing to use the white stream of flames for his aid if he needed to move quickly.
