People like to nudge aside the fact that there's a level of commitment to hosting, and joining an RP. The majority of players don't have it in either case, regardless of how interesting an idea is.

I've been gone so long that I forgot what the status bar was like. It's like coming back to an old apartment, except it's not an apartment anymore, it's just two walls and a lot of heroine addicts.

The status bar serves one of three purposes. You can be pretentious, you can tell people about your personal problems, or you can be a smartass.

I for one am excited to try out spider-dude 4: The return of those idiots that dress up like animals.
Yzeira hesitated for only a moment before focusing his gaze on Zios. It took only a moment for Blup to relay his plan to everyone using his relay though.

'Yzeira's power is superior to anything we have other than Bruce's Order Slicer. That is the only way we can harm him now that he's stopped holding back. The goal is simple. Get that sword to strike him! If it even grazes his skin, his abilities will be sealed for long enough for us to finish him off! I don't know if it will work on Shaidra, though. She is capable of teleportation in an instant, but my analysis of her magic is minimal. It's clear that she must be close to whoever she wishes to teleport, so we must pin her down. However, if she can see an attack coming, it will simply phase through her body. With Yzeira covering her, this makes the two of them together a nearly unbeatable force.

We have an ace up our sleeves though, blup. Jenso's attack has annihilated Yzeira's tattoo and its abilities. Once our ace is revealed, we'll have the opportunity to strike.

First Zios...


The information popped into their heads in less than a second like magic, as if they'd known the plan all along. Zios lowered his body and rose one hand.

"Meta-Black hole!"


From his palm came a sphere that grew and began to absorb the red energy that flooded the arena. Suddenly their battlefield was made safe, as all the newly generated energy was nullified by the orb of energy. Yzeira looked up at it and immediately began to focus his efforts on destroying it.

'Just as planned, he will destroy it in seconds. That is all the time we'll have. None of us are fast enough to react. Nobody except for Jeff, blup!'

Jeff nodded and dashed across the battlefield, aiming to strike shaidra from behind while Yzeira focused on the orb.

'Of course, he will prioritize Shaidra's safety. So far, we can assume that Yzeira has the capacity to maintain his shield, this massive aura, a series of attacks to keep Bruce at Bay, and just enough power to launch beams like the one that Zios shot. My analysis of his brainwaves at that times showed his upper limits! He is not omnipotent! Normally he could swat Jeff away easily, but the speed of his thoughts are not faster than Jeff's inherent physical speed...'

Jeff, with Blup's predictions, dodged a series of explosions that blocked him from striking Alexis just in time. Alexis turned around to notice the occurrence, but couldn't react.

'...They're almost equal, but just barely! Alexis cannot react to Jeff at all, so if he continued to bombard her, Yzeira will have to draw focus away from dismantling Zios' black hole! Since it is a complex form of meta energy he is not familiar with, he will have to consciously decipher its physical makeup, rather than simply destroying it! This alone should keep us safe for 10 seconds, at least. If Jeff can keep Alexis occupied, with his attacks, Yzeira will have to dedicate a great deal of his thinking power to keeping her safe! Fortunately for us...'

"Speedy little bastard! Destroy him! Destroy him now!"

'...Alexis does not want to die! She will not tell Yzeira to stop! While all this is happening, Bruce will likely still be under siege, but between him and Jeff's attacks, he won't be able to focus on killing Jenso at all, unless he drops the aura on the battlefield. Fortunately, Zios' black hole will detect that!..'

"He's bringing it down"

Yzeira conjured a series of spike to keep Bruce at bay, while constantly firing off instantaneous explosions to keep Jeff away from Alexis, who herself was keeping at eye on Zios, Jenso and Bruce.

'Phase one of our plan is complete. Yzeira's mental capacity can be suppressed with our combine efforts! Now fighting him will be like fighting a person with normal thought speed! At this point, Alexis is still a danger, but Jeff's attacks have her emotionally unstable. Zios will begin to attack her as well...'

Zios began to launch a series of multi-colored lasers towards Alexis, only for them to phase through her. She immediately focused on him and began to counter-attack with her black smog, and magical bombardments of her own creation.

'Which gives Jenso an opportunity to charge an attack capable of covering the entire battlefield over the next 5 seconds...'
Jenso's spear evaporated on contact with Yzeira's shield this time around, and the mist began to sink into his skin, restricting his movement slightly. Jeff's nano-bots began to reform a new arm for him, which turned into a slick-looking gauntlet of sorts shortly afterwards.

"I don't want to admit it, but I feel pretty low on energy already."

"I won't last much longer myself."

"Stand back."

Alexis jumped back away from Jenso, fading away and appearing beside Yzeira.

"You shouldn't have to fight any longer."

Yzeira rose his hands slowly and began to focus energy, aiming it towards where Jenso stood. Despite his attempts to move however, the mist from earlier quickly paralyzed him in place. The sheer focus of Alexis' void control was enough to immobilize him despite the power that welled up inside.

"You've done enough."

A stream of energy erupted from Yzeira's hand at top speed. Bruce tried to move in its path to stop it with his blade, but several spikes blocked his path. Jeff did the same, launching a focused sniper shot towards it, but dealt no damage to the attack. It seemed like Jenso was finished.

"I won't let you."

The ground in front of Jenso shattered as a large being that he hadn't seen before emerged with a barrier to intercept Yzeira's attack. The beam broke through and hit him dead center, sending him sliding back to Jenso. He stopped inches in front of him and held his ground until the beam was spent. Zios, Oz's new form, turned to greet Jenso with a blank expression. "You cannot break our resolve." Just then, Jenso would feel his body regain control. Although Alexis' void was powerful, it couldn't restrain him for long.

"The meta-beast that fought Zelriane."

"Who cares?" Alexis cut off Yzeira, "Kill it, don't contemplate the possibilities!"

"..."

"That's the plan! That's the formula! Stop thinking and just do!"

'I'm ready, blup blup!'
"By that logic, I suppose that I'm also a figment of your collective imagination? Hah!" The blue energy stopped behind Jenso and turned into an orb before exploding with a great deal of force. Yzeira, from afar began to launch volleys of energy at both Jeff and Bruce. Jeff activated his one-with-wind transformation and bolted out of the way, while Bruce used his windboard to do the same.

Jeff's body appeared behind Yzeira and he stabbed towards his back. "A little slow, aren't-" He weapon snapped against the man's barrier and the chaotic energy began to climb his arm. Jeff was forced to eject his gauntlet as it faded away to nothingness. "Oh. Well. Crud." Bruce appeared in front of him and swung his anti-void blade at the man's shield, but stopped half-way through his swing as a spike of red energy nearly pierced his heart. He retreated as several more spike appeared out of thin air in an attempt to skewer him.

"He's too fast. Even if I were to sacrifice myself, I don't think I'll be able to get a clean hit in. Without my Ki, this blade is nothing more than a length of cold steel."

"I must stop falling into the trap of my own hubris," Yzeira Muttered. Suddenly Jeff's right gauntlet was destroyed by a random explosion of energy that had been gathering in his arm.

'Blup! Keep your focus high! If Yzeira's energy gathers in one of your limbs for long enough unnoticed...'

As the explosion faded, Jeff's right arm was revealed to be completely gone.

'...It can be lethal!'

"Otherwise my aim will always be off its mark."

'Focus your ki to stave off his more focused energy!'

Crimson power began to gather in both Jenso's left leg and his right shoulder. Bruce felt it in his head, but surged his ki upwards to expel it before it could explode.

"All this while he's maintaining this field and launching off tangible attacks. This is impossible."

"I may have been much more reasonable than him, but Teshra has always had a more brilliant mind than I or Nexus. My biggest regret was not acknowledging it back then..." Alexis rose both hand and launched a wave of smokey black mist at Jenso from his front.

'5 more seconds!'
Final Battle Arc: Part 3




Power began to well up quickly from the pits of Yzeira's very soul until it enveloped his entire body from head to toe. He couldn't move an inch from where he stood, but with so much energy, he wouldn't need to. Alexis turned back to Jenso and offered him a soft smile. It was one of pity and sadness.

"No more lying, no more dishonesty, no more chaos, I will fight tried and true from this point on."

Energy began to gather around Jenso, Jeff, and Bruce like an aura, blurring their vision and seeping into their Ki like a viscous poison. Their blood began to feel thicker, and the seconds pulled away at their stamina incredibly fast. Bruce dashed through both of his allies and slashed at the energy, but it only continued to gather around them. He was the only one that could resist it continually. Eventually, the air itself was thicker than smoke. Crimson energy flooded the battlefield, and put a continual drain on any who could not harness the void, or Meta energy.

"Fade away!"


"He could do something like this!?"

"Even with the sword I can feel my energy getting sapped away. We can't stall for time like this."

'Calculations not complete. I need ten more seconds, blup! Take his attention away from the aura as much as you can!'

Shaidra's body appeared in front of Jenso moments after. She stood in front of him with a smile and one hand raised in front of his face. "That's the man I remember. Such soul." From her hand, a flash of blue light shot forwards towards Jenso's heart.
As the bolt neared her, her body began to dissipate around where the attack would have struck. It shot through her, and was absorbed by a small orb of red energy in front of Yzeira afterwards.

"I think all traces of that beast have left my body. Combat has never been my strong suit. But I always spent my life defending each and every last principal that I held dear from ignorant savages like you. That part of my hasn't changed." A flash of light sparked in Yzeira's eyes. "As always, I'll try my best-"

"And I will support you every step of the way.



~ End Of Chapter 213 ~

"I'll look for an opening. This sword is our best chance at victory," Bruce thought, grasping the handle of his newly crafted blade tightly. His ki flowed through it with near-perfect control, matching the blade's shape to grant it the ability to cut through Yzeira's Void-empowered meta energy. "The energy it creates is meta energy. As long as he does not dodge, it should slice through his barrier like butter. But those eyes of his... I don't think I'll get a chance to get in close unless we find a way to counteract his power." Yzeira narrowed his eyes and glared at the brilliant blue sword that the ronin held.

"Oz- I mean, Zios, is on standby. But I think they know that already. He has his own brand of Meta energy as well, and might be able to take a few hits without much trouble. We also have a fusion on our side. But I don't know how long me and Bruce would be able to hold it. It fell apart after we defeated the chaos twins. Dacer is back on the planet's surface, and Alvios is..." Jeff stopped his thought and shook the idea that his comrade was gone out of his mind. He glared at Shaidra. "Blup has no Data on her. Yzeira is difficult enough to deal with. Both both of them at once?" He looked at Yzeira afterwards and sighed.

"Multiple physical injuries detected, blup! Yzeira cannot move very much right now! But his energy seems even stronger than it was before! Power supply and raw stamina might be limitless! The longer we fight, the worse this will be for our odds at victory, blup blup!"

"Let's forget about your failures. This is the first chance we've had to work together in millennia." Yzeira looked down at Alexis from behind. She turned to him and smiled. "While not exactly what I expected, it makes me happy. Especially after so many years trapped in darkness."

"..."

'Calculating plan of attack...'

"Stall for time. We're only going to get one shot at this."

"It's as Jenso says. Let's make it count.
"We weren't his babysitters. If you want to blame somebody, blame his parents." Shaidra's form faded and reappeared in front of Jenso. "I have no more words to waste on you." With a void-infused kick, she sent Jenso flying into the sky above, rapidly hurtling for the barrier that separated him from a cold death in space. She flew back down to Yzeira's side and crossed her arms. "You have no energy left that wouldn't be drawing upon the force that keeps you alive. This little game is over."

"How about, no?"

Jenso's body was stopped mid-air before it reached the precipice of the tower's pocket dimension. He felt two hands wrap underneath his arms and hold him in place as wind swept across his body. Jeff had returned, and made his way up the side of the tower.

"That wind boy... How did he breach the-"

"The fabric of your tower's dimensional wall? I had a little help from a buddy of mine who's been collecting Data throughout this whole fight!" Jeff slowly lowered Jenso back to the ground and floated behind him. A small, blue, amorphous blob popped out from behind his coat and extended a little hand. "Looks like you're screwed now, ginger-boy!" Blup divided himself, and launched a copy of his body onto Jenso's shoulder.

"I was able to reconstruct myself after Ada was defeated! B.L.U.P. 2.0 functioning at 200% capacity! Data on the Order's abilities has been fully analyzed!" the little blob's voice echoed in Jenso's mind. "Psychic relay is a new feature as well, Blup!" Shaidra pouted and turned to Yzeira. He looked down at her painfully before reassuring his stance.

"I understand," Yzeira groaned. His hair returned to its normal color, and his energy began to well upon. He pointed at Jeff, forming a sphere of energy around him. "I'm sorry, Alexis."

"Oh, uh oh."

Fwish! A stream of white slashed through the bubble around Jeff, and it suddenly vanished into pieces.

"I mean, uh-oh is what I would have said if I hadn't already constructed a sword to counteract your stupid bullshit!" He rubbed his nose with one finger and smiled. "But I couldn't wield it with my Ki type. Fortunately, we have just the guy with enough Ki to power it effectively!" Above Jeff, the blur that freed him faded into view from above. It was Bruce, riding on Jeff's wind-board.

"Those Nano-bots work quickly."

"Your incompetence knows no bounds, Teshra."

"..."
Leias, Kolo's Residence
4th of Summer - 6:00 PM


After a small tussle with the beast, Kolo managed to push Kiki off of he stomach with a strained heft using her legs. It backed away and stood in place. Kyio caught its attention immediately though. "She's a pretty feisty Veril, but perfectly capable of making the trip in under a day with the right, motivation," Kolo snorted. She arched her head backwards for a moment and gathered a copious amount of mucus in the back of he throat. Kiki's head lowered to the ground as her master hacked up a large glob of mucus between them. "Better," she hissed, "Damned sickness has been making it a pain in the rear to get anythin' done 'round here." She offer Kyio a friendly smile and walked over to Kiki's side. "Faster than a Venbu, and four times smarter. She'll carry us quite the ways. We could be there in no time at all, maybe even under an hour. But ridin' Veril ain't for the faint of heart."
"An astute observation for an idiot." She barked, "As always, you've let your emotions control you, my dear colleague. Funny that your reaction to my consciousness re-emerging is one so lacking." She turned back to Yzeira and smiled. "All that I've been faced with is likely the work of Nexus. A shame. I would have rather remained that disruptive little beast than be met with your failures at a time like this. You disappoint me."

"I..." He had no words for her. One of his hand reached up to peel what remained of his mask from his face. The tattoo beneath his left eye was vivid, and pulsating with unstable energy.

"Without any tethers, that little seal is fairly worthless, isn't it?" She did the same with her own mask fragments, and revealed her face to him. It hadn't changed in the slightest. She had no tattoo controlling her like the others. It felt like the opposite, like she had been controlling him. "I told you that the soul is not easily understood. Any study into it would be inviting danger. The void is not meant to be understood. Its ever changing composition brings chaos to any and all research." Alexis turned back to Jenso and rose one hand. "You're the only thing I can remember. You and this boy."
