The Age of the Heart

Gexln didn't turn to look at Axuran. Instead, he continued just staring out into the vast space of the 2nd district. "I was wondering when you'd show up" he stated. He looked down at the bell. "Axuran..do you have the feeling that something's...off?" he asked.

 

"hhmm yes i feel something strange here... what is that?" Axuran asked

 

"What is what?" Gexln asked. I can't shake off the feeling that something's wrong..but Ada killed that thing..didn't she? he wondered.

 

OOC: if i stop posting it means my internet cord has been taken out for the night
IC: "I have no idea..." Axuran said as he took out his blade and looked around

 

OOC: Or you've just horrendously died of boredom?
IC: Gexln raised his blade. He couldn't see anything that looked dangerous, but if there was anything there he wanted to be ready. "Please tell me this isn't just a hunch" Gexln said.

 

OOC: Nah i cant die of boredom xD
IC: "if its a hunch, why am i feeling the same thing? Whatever it is i wish it would show itself already!" Axuran said as his grip tightened on his sword

 

Gexln held up a hand as a gesture to tell Axuran to hush. "Quiet. Can you hear that?" Gexln asked, almost in a whisper.

 

Axuran shut up immediately. "what is that?" He wispered to Gexln

 

"A sound...almost like footsteps..and it's close. Very close" Gexln stated. Out of the corner of his eye he thought he saw movement, but disregarded it almost immediately. That was a big mistake. The moment he let down his guard, an invisible clawed hand hit him in his back. He fell onto the ground and lost his grip on his sword, his blade skidding several feet away.

OOC: STEALTH SNEAK FTW

 

OOC: ok then, since i gotta go now, ill make it knock me out ok?
IC: Axuran turned around to see Gexln get knocked to the ground, just as something hit Axuran in the head
As he was losing consciousness, he saw something moving towards Gexln...

 

OOC: Ok lol well if this RP goes really slowly you may actually be back when this fight is still going on XD
IC: Gexln pushed himself up. The creature had hit him hard. "Guess this is where darkness comes in handy.." he said quietly. Using his darkness, he 'felt' for the creature's darkness signature. He could practically visualise the creature's arm, coming down to hit him once more. Easily, he stepped out of the way of the strike. He ran over and gripped his blade. He raised it slightly. "Alright thing, come and try me if you dare" he taunted.

 

OOC: Slowed down a bit, let's pick it up Wigglz.
IC: "Hah, that all you've got?" Noroz taunted Gexln from a rooftop.

 

Alice dived headlong into a battle. A large piece of a suit of armor dropped down in front of her and her Keyblade flashed to her hand. "Hmph, if it's a fight you want, it's a fight you'll get. You've been tormenting this town long enough! As and Elder Key your death is now top priority! My name is Master Alice, and your demise is inevitable!" Alice usually didn't do the usual talk before a fight like this but something in it reminded her of her master and she needed the strength.

 

Axuran regained consiousness in time to see Gexln taunting the invisible enemy. Axuran stopped time for a moment to dash off into the 3rd district, where he found someone about to fight a big suit of armour. "Wait.... Alice?" He said as he looked

 

Alice ducked as the other two parts completed their transformation and barreled toward her. Rolling out of the way, Alice slashed at it's hard body, cutting a line across it's arm. It turned and shot it's arm off in a rocket toward her. Crashing into the ground where Alice once stood, she fell from the sky after having jumped into the air to dodge it and landed on the arm as it retracted back. She allowed a brief smile before dragging her Keyblade across the Heartless' face. She kicked it's face and landed behind it as it toppled down toward her. Closing her eyes, Alice held her Keyblade vertical to her body and focused her energy. "Solar Flare!" A burst of white light errupted from her body and knocked the Heartless away from her, landing on it's front instead of crushing Alice behind it.

 

Axuran watched as she fought the armour, then he yelled "Do you want any help??" as he pulled out his sword

 

Alice felt her mind being pulled from the fight. Axuran stood too close already. Alice barely had time to realize she was bleeding again. The Heartless attacks from earlier had caused damage to her body that she'd yet to attend to. The armor stood again, and smashed it's fist down on Alice's Keyblade, "A Keyblade Master never asks for aid in a battle." Though I may have thrown the battle already... she thought mournfully. Not wishing to have the one Nobody she'd met so far in her time with this generation to see her fail, Alice pushed back against the Heartless, despite the fact that blood now dripped steadily from her arms and a long cut on her back. The Heartless from earlier had tried to claw out her heart from her back. Not a smart decision as it would take longer, but it didn't matter now.

 

Axuran saw as the blood dripped from Alice, and he thought i need to use this, even though it might damage me... Axuran's eyes glowed bright red, and his sword spun rapidly as time stopped completely, then he walked over to Alice, took off his jacket, tore bits off his shirt and turned them into bandages for Alice's wounds. Once she was bandaged up, he put his jacket back on as time started up again

 

Alice forced her anger to melt and fuel a different kind of power. Her Keyblade glowing brightly, she forced the armor Heartless back and tore off her sleeve. Two thick bands of dark vine tattoos covered her arm down to her fingers. "Kurusan Sentai Number Two! Wrath of Vir!" The thick vines unraveled from her arm and rushed toward the Heartless, both of the Heartless' arms exploded and disappeared. Armless, the Heartless staggered. Alice lifted her Keyblade over her shoulder and dashed forward. It seemed as if she'd never even touched the Heartless as she moved past it, though her Keyblade had swung in an easy arc. Barely five seconds after she'd stopped, the Heartless split into two and it's heart floated away. Alice thrust her Keyblade into the ground and leaned heavily on it.

 

Axuran watched as Alice destroyed the heartless, and finally rest, he looked at her and said "well done" before his legs gave way, he hit the ground hard, but immediately stood back up, as to not look weak. "I fixed your wounds, but i had to stop time completely, it took a lot out of me..."
