Vice: The name's Vice. Vice Arancione. I'm a Codex. And your worst nightmare, If you wish to continue fighting.

@souleaterfan320

I can't die. Not permanently anyway.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Shadow Dragon>

*the blood fizzles and boils within me, evaporating. you find my insides to be molten like lava, and my core to be a black, incredibly hot sphere*

Hekrom: *you find an incredible force sends you flying back about a few hundred feet*

Vice: you're a tough cookie, Vamp dude. I'll give you that.

*my entire body is engulfed in flames*

But I ain't dying that easily!

@souleaterfan320

I'd be disappointed if you did.

*He bows*

Please, call me Vinashy.

Vice:
*your hand crunches against my abdomen, causing a slight crack in my armor*

Whew! you're quite the bruiser, yourself!

*grabs a hold of your hand, and with the free hand, I attempt to break your arm at the elbow with brute force*

Hekrom: *you feel as if you weigh a million tons, making movement much harder than it was before*

@souleaterfan320

*His arm suddenly turns entirely to blood, and he pushes his arm through the new cracks in your armor, and starts draining the blood from your body with each pump of your heart*

<Snipped quote by Shadow Dragon>

Vice: * dashes forward, punching you. And at the same time releasing the firery force of a dying star into your face*

@souleaterfan320

*He bends backwards, and the fist flies over him, right where his chest would have been, and he stabs Vice through the chest with his clawed hand. It busts out of his back, gripping Vice's heart in his fist*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Shadow Dragon>

*a voice echoes out from thru the cosmos*

???:Oh, would it?

*suddenly, you feel a force squeeze upon your heart, forcing it to stop. It feels much like an ethereal hand crushing it between its fingers*

King: you aren't alone, Vice?

Vice: I'd be stupid to fight someone as powerful as you without keeping my friends close. At least now I stand a chance at surviving. Truth is, they knew you were here the moment you stepped foot into my dimension. Funny thing, how technology works.

King: I didnt take you for the inttelect type.

Vice: I'm not, more of a brawler. But just beating things up doesnt always work. I'm a little light on the knowledge department, but I'm not an idiot.

King:.... Reveal yourself, Hekrom.

Hekrom: *my voice echoes out again*

I was waiting for you. You fell into my trap. You can't escape. This entire dimension is my playground. Our original target seems to have dissapeared, but you're just as dangerous, from what Shinji had told us.

King: *chuckles darkly*

Oh, Shinji. That unfortunate soul? How pathetic. You were smart to heed his warning, though.

*both you and King feel an immense pressure, as if your very beign was being forcefully compressed into a tiny pinpoint*

Vice: finally! Took you forever, loser.

*coccoons you both in a flame hotter than any known sun, torrentially turning around you*

@souleaterfan320

*He looks at the man trying to burn/crush him and sighs*

You do know I'm Undead, right? My heart hasn't beat since I was created.

*He waves his hand, and the power wrapping around him blows apart, shattered like sugar glass*

<Snipped quote by Shadow Dragon>

For now, I leave you with a single task. It seems you're eager to test your newfound abilities out. I shall watch as you combat Vice, here. His ideals prevent him from joining our family, my child. Show him what happens to those that side with those of the Tier Five. do not kill him, however. He could still be useful.

Vice: excuse you? you both are insane.

*gets into a stance, but clearly worn out from my battle with King. Before I do that, I tap a device in my ear*

*a emergency call reaches out to any available Codex*

@souleaterfan320

*He sucks in a breath, and the device sizzles, then pops, bits of metal showering your shoulder*

That's cheating. Besides, bringing more of your friends would actually make my job easier. Then I wouldn't have to hunt them down one by one.

*He looks at King*

Can't I just kill him then bring him back to life? That would be much easier.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Shadow Dragon>

*extends my hand to you, and a small crystal of amaranthine flys into you from me, Embedding itself into your chest. You feel a pulse of energy continously flow into your body at an impossible rate*

This is just a taste of our power. Once youve without a shadow of a doubt decided you wish to be a part of the family, I can fully induct you into it. For now, I'm sure even this is a good start, no? An endless flow of energy to consume for as long as you wish.

@souleaterfan320

*His eyes glow from the consumed power, and he grins*

Mmmmmm. It's a lot t stronger then I anticipated. Nice. Maybe the sample I got earlier was diluted somehow.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Shadow Dragon>

Oh, It can do much, much more than that, my friend. You shall know soon enough.

@souleaterfan320

Good. Very good.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Shadow Dragon>

The Amaranth Creed. To aceept our gift, and become one with the family, you are to respect the Amaranthine. It is not just a power to be given out like candy, only those worthy of its power and out goals may recieve it. We are to respect one another, and to trust my word, for I will never guide you astray. We are to progress the people of existence into a new golden age, allow them to experience our love and kindness, should they choose to accept our path. Those worthy will experience everlastign life without pain or misery. They will feel a power beyond that of any good or being known to existence, and shall use this power to better their lives daily.

*smiles*

Our goal is to liberate existence fro mthe clutches of the Tier Five. They wish to keep existence in the past. To prevent those here from learning of one another, from comining ideas, cultures, all of these things to make one large, collective family. They would rather watch these people close themselves off, and fight amongst themselves. They would rather watch existence slowly and painfulyl grow. Instead of supplying the tools to alter the process. To improve it. Join us, and together, our Family shall improve existence indefinitely.

@souleaterfan320

*He smiles, though his fangs make it look sinister*

I accept. Though I do have a small issue. I have a small amount of Amaranthine I..... borrowed, but I don't know how it works. Does it just enhance power, or can you do other things with it?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Shadow Dragon>

Of course, but are you willing to accept my invitation to our Family? To do that, you must accept the gift of the Amaranthine. Once you do, I will be yours to use at will. But to join our Family, you must accept our creed.

@souleaterfan320

And that would be.....?
