OOC: Again, I reiterate, SWEET! BIC: Xardius smiled, and turned back to the battle. "Bellatrix is down, due to complications with her heart that we'll probably have to deal with later, Xegreny is pooped, and Wing and Oxryt are pretty much holding their own." He looked at Vexneah, who was standing with a little more confidence now that an actual Keyblade was in her hands. "Let's finish this," Xardius said, and stretched forth his hand. "Are you ready?"
OOC: SWEET! BIC: Xardius turned from Bellatrix and saw Vexneah stumbling to her feet with a Keyblade of Ice. "Interesting choice of weapon," Xardius said, striding to her. "Maybe it wasn't a conscious decision, but the choice of your heart..." Taking the chain in his hand, he snapped on the meteor keychain, and put a piece of his energy in it.
OOC: Whatever you want to do...Maybe you could make one out of ice, then the keyblade gets attached, and you get your own...? Would that work for you?
OOC: I was just wondering who I should give the keychain to, because I don't have a keyblade and ain't getting one anytime soon. Guess I could give it to you Wing, but you're already using two...
OOC: No, I was just curious because it didn't say you had one on the family page. Does anyone here besides Wing have keyblades though?
Xardius watched the battle rage on around him, watching Oxyrt sprint back into battle, and Wing, suddenly wielding two Keyblades, start to rip apart knights with Aero spells. Suddenly, Xardius remembered something he'd found. Pulling it out of his pocket, he fingered the keychain he'd found earlier. It was shaped in the form of a flying meteor, with flames trailing behind it and curling into a ring that the chain could attach to. "A keychain for a keyblade," he said aloud. OOC: What weapon does Vexneah have? BIC: At Bellatrix's gasp in pain, Xardius' head snapped around. He saw the dead body of the knight he had fought, and Bellatrix grasping her chest. Running to her, he heard her ask, "Why does it hurt?" "It's your heart," he said. "Your heart is trying to return to you."
OOC: Oh, yeah, sorry. Xardius spotted Vexneah lying on the ground. Pulling out one of his dated Potions, he quickly pulled the stopper out of it, rushing to her side. Pouring it down her throat, he muttered, "I thought I told you to stay off your butt. Sheesh. Guess I'm gonna have to stay here for a while."
Xardius blinked. Had he felt something? Was that...anger he had felt...pride? The knight squirmed against the tree. Chomper lay on the ground some ways away. Xardius registered he'd heard Xegreny calling him to stop. Chains suddenly wrapped around the knight and he disappeared. Shaking his head, Xardius bent down, picking up Chomper and racing back into the battle. OOC: Sweet move. Xardius doesn't think when he's fighting, especially when somebody tries to freeze him, stab him, and insult him in some foreign way. I wouldn't have really killed him, though.
The knight's eyes widened as his blade was blown backwards and energy surged upwards, causing him to flip backwards and land against a blazing tree. "Impossible!" the knight screamed as Xardius bent and picked up the somewhat broken Chomper. Calling its name, it regenerated quickly and Xardius walked towards the knight. "I told you," Xardius said, walking forward, fire in his eyes, "I am a Guardian of Larenska. I'm not going to die to a wimp like you..." Xardius pointed the end of Chomper at the knight. "And now, I'm going to kill you." OOC: Better stop me then.
OOC: HA HA I'm BACK! BIC: Xardius opened his eyes to blue flames and shiny silver armor. Shaking his head, he stood up and raised Chomper. The silver knight paused... "How can you...?" the knight said, obviously taken aback. "You think," Xardius said, eyes blazing, "that a wimpy Blizzaga spell is gonna keep me down. I am a Guardian of Larenska, and YOU ARE DEAD!" Xardius charged, and the knight whipped out a sword, riposting Chomper every time Xardius swung. "You're pathetic," the knight sneered, and knocked Chomper off balance. Xardius stumbled, and looked up to see the knight stabbing towards him. "If my spell can't hurt you, then my sword will!" The sword plunged towards Xardius' open stomach, and Xardius smiled. Perfect, he thought. OOC: Is it okay if this guy is your brother, Bellatrix? And I'm not in trouble, so don't bother helping me.
Xardius was still at the front of the line, so he got hit the hardest. Ice sprayed out from nowhere and everywhere at once, and hit Xardius just as he was swinging downwards at another knight. Ice sprayed outwards from where Xardius was as he was thrown backwards, smacking other people with the Blizzaga spell. Xardius hit the ground with a massive crack, Chomper shattering under the blow. Xardius didn't get up, and through the smoke and haze, a figure began walking forwards, clad in silver armor, his hand still extended from the Blizzaga spell. OOC: Just a sec, I'll be right back. Don't worry about me though.
Xardius wiped water from his brow. Where'd the rain come from? he wondered, but he didn't have much time to think. Twenty knights rushed him all at once, ten to the right, ten to the left. Xardius sighed, and flipped upwards, watching them impale each other. Landing, he raced forward, killing more knights, not waiting for them to fall.
Xardius twisted from the last knight he'd disected into several small pieces, and hucked Chomper at the knights surrounding Vexneah. Chomper whistled through the air as Bellatrix's chains killed the all, imbedding itself in a tree. Grunting, Xardius flipped over just as the knights fell to the ground, grabbing Vexneah's hand and lifting her to her feet. "Try to stay off your butt," he muttered, grabbing Chomper and racing back into the action.
"That guy had bad breath," Xardius muttered, twisting to ram Chomper onto the back of the giant knight's head. Twisting, he saw more organization members rushing from the castle. "Guess they finally realized what was happening..." he muttered. He waved at Xegreny. "Yeah, I'm fine, just a little gassed out." More knights rushed him and Xardius swung down, moving back into his normal rhythm of hack slash and smush.
"I'm already tired!" Xardius called back, ripping through knight after knight after knight after knight...Ugh, Xardius thought, this is mundane. Then the earth shook underneath him. The knights parted and a massive knight, easily twice as tall as the others and wielding a massive hammer rushed at him, screaming in fury. "Um..." Xardius said, scratching his head. The hammer rushed downwards. "You're ugly..." Xardius said as he watched the hammer come down.
"Fine, whatever," Xardius said, rolling his eyes. He twisted and bolted towards the knights, swinging Chomper up through the first one. OOC: There you go, hack away...
Xardius called out a final time, "Once we get in there, if you get tired, jump back, and the next person will take charge...There's only enough space for two or three people abreast of each other to fight, and so we're going to have to take turns..." He grinned. "Don't hog all the fun, eh? Vexneah, you tell us when..."
Xardius grinned. "Of course..." He swung Chomper down, and looked back at the rest of the group. "Vexneah, will you take point?" he asked. "I'll be right behind you..."
Xardius shrugged. "Now we can fight more effectively." He stood back up. "I'll be fine in a few minutes, once my crystal recharges." He turned to the sound of armor clanking. "Looks like we've got some company."
"Right," Xardius said, nodding. He moved off back towards the flame, entering the thin channel that he had left open. "All right!" he called back towards the group. "This is it! The knights should be here any minute! I'll boost your energy using the crystal in my armor but it will only work for a limited time, so don't waste it!" Xardius tapped into the crystal, and blasted the energy inside out to each member. Wasted, he doubled over, thudding onto one knee. "Ugh," he muttered, "hate doing that..."
