<Snipped quote by Webmaster>

*Swings the sword toward you, prismatic bands radiating from its light*

@Etcetera

*The same force causes your sword to freeze mid-swing, and a large chunk of metal shields me from the ribbons of energy*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Webmaster>

*The large blue ball pulsates heavily once, and then rains an overwhelmingly large, intense beam of energy down on you from above for just a few moments*

@Multifarious

*Looks between the ball and you before clenching my fist toward you in a panic, causing the ground below you to crack beneath your weight and a non-magnetic entity pulling Data between me and the beam*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Webmaster>

*Rockets into you with the same speed and hits you with the flat of my blade, sending you cratering into the ground*

@Etcetera

*Attaches a field to you and pulls you down with me, my shoulder phasing in and out of translucency*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Webmaster>

*Crashes in a kneeling position, then looks up at you and lobs a huge, pulsating cyan orb into the sky, which hangs in place at the peak of its arch. I then point a finger at you and fire green dartlike energy pellets at an extremely high rate at you in the moment that Data anchors you down*

@Multifarious

*As soon as I break through the spikes, I travel along a rail of magnetic points that dynamically weave through the pellets, increasing the strength of the field that holds you down every second*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Multifarious>

Understood.

<Snipped quote by Webmaster>

*Swings my blade at you, generating two spiked cones that erupt from the ground at opposite angles, pinning you between them*

@Etcetera

*Pulls a handful of iron dust from my jacket, which creates another particle saw that carves me out of the spikes*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

Do what you have to. I’ve got questions after this is over; my words to her were not a bluff.

<Snipped quote by Webmaster>

*Clenches my fists and holds my arms closer to my center of mass, and I drop from the sky like a rock, landing in front of you and kicking up massive amounts of dirt and debris into the air. With my hand perfectly straight, I strike my fingers directly into your throat*

@Multifarious

*You experience a sudden and severe repulsive force when you near me, blowing you into another field that crashes you into the ground*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

I think it’s your responsibility, after everything I’ve learned. But I wouldn’t be justified just quitting.
*Crosses my arms while still staring down at her*
You are the one she wants dead. You don’t think she has something prepared to catch you off guard?

@Multifarious

<Snipped quote by Multifarious>

I don’t think her hatred is well-placed. But I agree with your reasoning; she likely prepared for my presence alone.

@Etcetera

*Suddenly, the opposite magnetic charges around both of you spoke, pulling your limbs in multiple different directions*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Webmaster>

*Shakes my head*
We appreciate your warning, time traveler, but we're more than capable of protecting our own timeline. The position you have doesn't just mean you know best.
*Shifts my position just slightly, assuming a very rigid and passive fighting stance*

@Multifarious

*My arms appear to glimmer, almost translucently*
I guess that’s that, then.
*Drops the field disabling teleportation and appears on the ground before reenabling it—the next moment, I flood the region with randomly fluctuating magnetic fields in attempts to obscure others*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Webmaster>

Your trauma has driven you mad. You've become a machine, hardwired with one goal and one goal only.
*Frowns*
You poor thing. Whether this battle kills you or not, I vow to take up the mantle and see your concerns through to the very end the way it should be done. My new Porsenthe. Purpose.

@Multifarious

*My face falls*
I don’t want your pity. I’m not insane. I’m doing what everyone needs me to do.
