John walked out into the war zone. He saw nothing but utter chaos. The Taken were almost gone. Maybe one or two groups barely holding themselves together as these new creatures hammered into them.
He saw several disturbing things. Several large knights were causing problems. 3 matched the elemental forms of Light and Darkness. And looked like a slightly smaller Alak-Hul.
There was a rather powerful Wizard reeking havoc as well. As John looked across the zone he saw several defeated targets come back. And seemingly more powerful. Phogoth was massive. Sepiks was back. Along with the Nexus and Valus Tau'uarc.
As he looked closer he saw the focus point of most of the enemy. Towards several Guardians and a Hive Knight. Quite a large one that reminded him of the Warpriest.
"Wow... Quite the battle here"
"[i]You know, you COULD just vanish while they're ignoring you[/i]"
"Have you ever known me to run from a fight?" John said coyly as a flaming hammer smashed the wall next to him.
"[i]I knew you would do this[/i]"
"You know me all too well"
With that John leapt into the air and fired a lightning bolt into a cluster of them. The powerful bolt shook the entire ground and tore through every enemy below him.
He landed behind a Phalanx and jammed his bayonet into the small of the back, simultaneously firing 3 rounds from his Eyasluna to the same point he stabbed.
He tore the gun out and ran over to where the Guardians and Knight were making their stand.
He leapt over the front lines of the battle only to trip when he landed in front of the small group.
"Hey," John panted, "Any of you... Know what these things are?"
John lifted himself off the ground and, for the most part, ignored the massive force behind him.

" They started showing up just recently due to that d bag over there. *indicating Grixis* All I know is that they smell and they are mean. They also do not like fire." Garuud smirked. another voice spoke up from Garuuds mouth. " Like at all, they scream a lot and pop hahahaha" Another voice spoke up" ..... that's gross" Garuud smirked. " So lets take him down."
-
He was beginning to get a little irked. The plan's success was inevitable, that was a fact. But with these rebellious Hive and these damned Guardians were delaying that. He noticed the commotion in the distance and took a glance at the source. Down below was the same Titan from the Valley, but the Warlock was new. No matter. No 'one here could stop him. He raised his Reborn arm and pointed at the two Guardians below. Sepiks Prime and Valus Ta'aurc faced them and attacked. Sepiks firing blast after blast of Reborn energy, and Ta'aurc firing his giant rail gun and launching volleys of rockets that split into a swarm of smaller rockets halfway to their target. As for Phogoth and The Nexus, they climbed up the incline and went to engage the Hive blocking the Rupture. And that left the Blades, Molkir, and him to kill the Dark Hunter.
-
Guardians were starting to come in the grand chamber quickly. Soon, there would be more here then she would like. But, as is, she'd have to be quick, otherwise things could go horribly wrong. She stood before Grixis and a few of his bodyguards, as always, ready to dodge any attack. "Tell me what your doing here Grixis, if you could please." She says nicely, not planning to harm him. Yet.
-
She wanted to know why he was here? Really? Yeah, wasn't gonna happen. He stared down at the Hunter, ignoring the two battles happening above and below him. "I think not. You will just have to wait and see like all the rest. But I will say this. A change is coming to the Hive. Crota was weak in both mind and body, Oryx only came for vengeance, never to truly lead a campaign against the Light. The Hive's dormancy ends with us. Soon, we will bring the Hive from the ashes, and your city and Traveler will fall." Suddenly the Rupture behind him changed from its black and green color, to a white and black color. He noticed, and grinned underneath his helmet. Out came his Five shadow like beings. "I see that it's time." He looked back at the Hunter. "Farewell, Guardian. When we meet again, you and all the other Guardians better bring everything you have." He shot his Reborn arm into the air, and the entire area was covered in a blinding light. When it cleared, he, Molkir, the Blades had disappeared, and the Rupture closed, leaving only the Reborn and the four commanders. ---------------------------------------- A portal opened in the massive room, somewhat identical to the room of the front of Sarkon's Dreadnaught. This was it. This was where Oryx had fallen. This was also where the last of his power lies. But that would change. Portals all around them began to appear, spawning the Deathsingers of the Wrath of Sarkon. But one in particular appeared at the very front the room. A second later, Sarkon himself appeared in all of his glory. He looked to one of his Shadows. "I assume we will not be disturbed?" "[i]No,"[/i] it said, sounding almost exactly like him, but with a more deeper voice, [i]"The wards will hold. Nothing can enter, not the Vex, the Hive, or the Guardians on board."[/i] "Good." He then approached the altar where Sarkon stood. Once he took his place beside him, he spoke one word. "Begin."
-
"When we meet again..." Alice says, leaning against the back wall of the room, watching Grixis and Sarkon do whatever they are doing. "...you should remember to close up the rupture behind you." She steps away from the wall, the shadow beings immediately unsheathing their weapons to attack her, but waiting on Grixis's command. "I honestly didn't expect this of all things. Coming to Oryx's chamber, a place those Guardians would never look. Quite exciting." She crosses her arms, facing Grixis. "I'm gonna ask nicely one last time. Tell me what your going to do." Even though she didn't say it like a threat, the danger of it was still there. Unscared, untouched, and fully confident in herself.

Edited by Zalamiir: 11/21/2015 5:57:08 AMAll eyes were on the Hunter. She had to have slipped in directly behind him after they did, as that was the only way for her to have gotten in here. The Shadows, Blades, Deathsingers, all looked at her with an eager glance to tear her to pieces for having the nerve to threaten their Over-Lord. Sarkon just looked at her with a blank expression, but he had what he had long ago figured out was a grin. But he stared at her with a burning hatred that couldn't be described. Reacting to that anger, the Shadows began to march toward her, the Blades close behind a second later. "You are becoming a [i]very[/i] big irritants to me." He said, his voice betraying that hate, which only provoked the Shadows and Blades to attack. "You will not stop what comes next. This Dreadnaught will become your tomb! You will-" "[i]Enough, Grixis."[/i] Everything in the room went silent. The Shadows and Blades ceased their advance, and all attention focused on the source of the voice. Grixis looked up at Sarkon. "What?" He didn't respond, instead he kept his stance as calm and rigid as always, having the top of his massive cleaver resting on the ground in front of him, staring right at the Guardian. What was he doing? Sarkon let out a deep chuckle. "[i]So. You're the Guardian that my friend here speaks of. A Dark Guardian."[/i] He chuckled again. "[i]But that darkness is not your own, isn't it? But it can be."[/i]
-
Alice throws back her head and laughs. "Your right, it isn't mine. Maybe it never will be, but who knows." She looks at the surrounding forces of Grixis, keeping her gaze level. "I understand what you offer, that you may give me Darkness of my own, but is it really?" She leaves her gaze on Sarkon. "If you had the option, you'd easily take control of me and force me to work along side you." She strides up to Sarkon and Grixis without a worry of all the subjects around her. "How about I say it this way. I'm bored of a 'God' that will eventually betray us. I'm bored of fighting, honestly, I am. So I'm not looking for a fight here. I'm looking for something else, something very particular that you or Grixis can help me with." She comes to a stop just three metres away from them. "What I want is the Travelers light."
-
The response was unexpected. She couldn't be serious. This was some sort of game she was playing. Then Sarkon continued. "[i]I'm glad that you have seen reason, just as my friend did long ago,"[/i] he took a glance at Grixis, then back at the Hunter. "[i]I assure you, you would not be bound to servitude."[/i] That was when his grin vanished. "[i]But one such as yourself cannot be trusted so easily, it even took Grixis here long time to convince me. So if you wish to break your chains forever, you will do one thing."[/i]
-
Alice smiles at them, then reaches up to take off her helmet. She pulls it off slowly, the hood falling back behind her neck. When the helmet is clear of her head, the view is different than expected. Her face is the same as it always has been, but now, the eyes are of different colour, one a grey silver and the other a dark brown, almost black. Her hair no longer the thick brown it used to be, now most of it is a dark, midnight black, except for the tips, which are still brown. "Soon I'm not going to have any chains to hold me, but I will hear about who it is you want me to kill. Just a warning though, I may say no, I do have some humanity left." She grins after that, looking directly at Grixis.
-
Edited by Zalamiir: 11/22/2015 2:45:32 AMReally? Was that meant to be an insult? He didn't care what people might call him now. Monster, Demon, Hive. They all met their fate in the end. Sarkon took the opportunity to chuckle at the Hunter's statement. He already knew why, and it would be a testament to what she had said. If she said that she would 'not have any chains to hold her' then this would be the perfect first step. Her morals had to be erased. "[i]No. You will not kill anyone today, as you said, you do not wish to fight."[/i] Sarkon said. That was when he decided to take over. "The Titan Ahamkara. I know that Shovoroth is still bonded to you. While Emaria is incapable of escaping my grasp, Shovoroth has gone to the lengths of hiding her from me. If you truly wish to be truly free, then this problem ends today. Call out to him, and reveal their location, or call them here. This is your judgement, the first chain is your morals. If you can't be rid of them, then your liberation is but a pointless dream. What will it be, Guardian?" It was time for her to decide.
-
Alice turns around walking away from Grixis and Sarkon. She pulls her helmet back on. "You forget why I am here, Sarkon. I'm not here for a fight, I'm not seeking your salvation, I'm not even seeking a partnership." She raises her hood when she reaches the middle of the great room. Then turns to face them once more. "I'm here seeking the Travelers Light, and in order to do that, I need an army. I need to be the one that issues the order, not a servant of a great General or whatever. So my answer to that request is no, because while I am linked with Shovoroth, I hold a great bargaining chip that you can't win against." She holds up a hand quickly. "But wait, if you capture me, you can hurt me, you can hurt Shovoroth, forcing him to come out of hiding and save me, right?" She says in a voice that shows little to no concern. "Just send forth waves upon waves of reborn until I tire and you lot come in for the steal, right?" "But as I said before-" She takes a few steps back, ready for anything to attack her or try and trap her. "-I came here for an army, not a recruitment, and I will be leaving here with an army, whether by choice or by force. And please don't let it be force, you all seem like lovely underlings and I would hate to fight you all, for as I said, I did not come here for a fight." She looks up at Sarkon, one eyes glowing white and the other radiating darkness. "But trust me on this, if you choose to fight me, you will lose and I will walk out of here with complete control of the Reborn, any of your darkness energy and freedom for Emaria."
-
Edited by Zalamiir: 11/22/2015 4:35:24 AMThere was pure silence in the room. Nothing moved, no 'one spoke. Nothing. It was as if time itself stopped to look at what was happening in Oryx's thrown room. But then the silence was broken. Every member of the Hive turned back to look at what it was. Sarkon was laughing. But that was not why they were looking. They heard something that they never heard before, nor they thought was possible. Grixis was laughing too. But then he regained control of himself, returning to the Grixis that everyone knew. "You are [i]unbelievably[/i] naïve to think that you can control them. The Reborn work on levels that you can't even begin to comprehend. They can only be controlled by us." "[i]You are welcome to try, however,[/i]" Sarkon said, [i]"But your efforts will be for naught."[/i] That was when something happened that no 'one had ever seen before. Reborn energy radiated from the ground around Sarkon and Grixis. Next, their bodies began to change, as each one became the very embodiment of Reborn energy. Sarkon's entire body turned into pure Darkness, at his center, however, was an orb made of pure Light. Grixis, however, was the exact opposite. His body was made of pure Light, and his core, an orb of Darkness. Then, out at the very tip of the front of the Dreadnaught, the space became covered in Darkness, blocking out the view of Saturn and space itself. Then all of a sudden, a supernova exploded far behind the two. What now cast the entire room with an eery light, was a massive orb made of Light and Darkness. The Oversoul of Sarkon and Grixis. Then they both spoke in unison, their voice sounding warped and different, as if it was not their own. [i][b]"Nothing can stop what comes next. We will take all, death will free all. The Dark War has begun."[/b][/i] Energy all around the room then started to pour into the Oversoul, making the entire room shake , as if everything was tearing itself apart. [b][i]Crota, has failed. Oryx, has failed. Xivu Arath and Savathûn have abandoned their crusade. Where they have failed, we will not. I am Xol, Worm God of the Hive, and I have spoken! The Deep, will consume all!"[/i][/b] That was when portals started to appear. Out from the portals came exact copies of ethereal Knights, but these were far worse, and far more dangerous. They all advanced on the Hunter. "[b][i]Take her Light!"[/i][/b]
-
"Yes, please do. Come closer, please." She mutters to herself as she watches the ground the enemies walk upon to get closer to her. "I'm sorry Sarkon and Grixis, I truly am, but you just got played like the chess pieces you are." She raises her hand towards the Oversoul and everything else in front of her. "I suppose I must thank you, however." She calls across the room. "You did just give me exactly what I wanted." She grins evilly under her helmet. "All of your energy." With that, all the energy that was going towards the Oversoul begins to flow through the air, out of the hive, the reborn, the room and the Oversoul itself, even Sarkon and Grixis, all aimed for Alice. "I am Lokumi's Leech!" She shouts over the roar of the room, as their own Darkness is absorbed away from them. "I offered you a chance which you rejected, now you shall all die, like the Worms you are." The Oversoul, lost without its energy, begins to crack open, the supernova loses it's energy, while Sarkon and Grixis stand there, losing all that holds them together. Any enemy that approaches immediately begins being drained more and more, any ranged weapon burns away before breeching a metre of the woman called Leech. And all the while, it is her laughing. As it will be her who gets the last laugh.
-
Edited by Zalamiir: 11/22/2015 5:19:00 AMA maniacal laugh thundered throughout the room as the energy continued to pour into the Guardian. [b][i]"You are strong. But even you can only go so far. You forget from the Books of Sorrow where all Hive get their power from, even that wretch Lokumi. But if it is power you seek, so you shall receive."[/i][/b] The Oversoul all of sudden grew twice the size that it was. At that moment, poured the energy into her an astonishing speed, as if the barriers that held the energy back were released. And it all poured into her. "[i][b]I am a God. You are but a pawn to a Dark disciple. You seek power? You will have it, whether you like it or not."[/b][/i] The power never stopped, it just kept coming and coming with no end, and it forced it's way into the Guardian's very being. And there was no way she could cut off the flow. She was stuck, and she would eventually break to the overflow of power. And when she did, it would all flow back into the Oversoul, and they would be done here at the Dreadnaught. And then the universe would succumb to Darkness.
-
"You are no god, for Gods don't bleed." Leech takes in all the energy of the Oversoul, but unknowing to the pretend God before her, the power is redirecting itself, for the body of Alice is no more than a conduit to a bigger goal that Lokumi had planned ages before hand. Lokumi appears behind Leech with a wide grin on his face. [b]"I'm sorry Xol, but I think it's safe to say at this point, that you officially screwed. You believe you hold the cards? You do not, for now you have released the flood, exactly what I wanted, for not even you can shut off the power now, Leech has too good of a grasp upon your Oversoul now. But I will thank you, however, when your Oversoul, minions, and even you run out of Dark energy, I'll be standing as the lone winner."[/b] [b]"You see, for I am no God, I am no immortal instrument, I am but a beast that likes to play Chess. Thank you, Xol, for your power is welcome."[/b] Lokumi dissapears into shadows, leaving Leech alone in the room, sucking any and all energy that comes close to her, leaving everything defenseless to her leeching abilities. "Try me." She says with a grin, as the shadows curl around her, ready to defend her with the power of an Oversoul.

Garuud dodged the rail gun from Val'rauc and moved faster and faster by killing enemies with his fire speeding him up even further until he was a blur. Then he landed on Val'rauc and punched him directly in the face with the force of a MAC truck activating melting point. Garuud then launched off of the Val and fired 3 rockets directly into his face which were then buffed by the melting points damage destroyed the Val completely. Which then dropped something on the ground..... " ooooo this is just delicious!" Garuud picked up the monte carlo. "This is what I need! muhahahahahah!" Garuud looked towards sepkis prime. " I am going through that rupture. You want to move? Or do you want me to go through you?" *no response* Garuud smiles wide. " Through you it is!" Garuud began firing into Sepkis from behind cover with his Monte carlo and when his melee was refilled he threw a incendiary grenade into the group destroying the lesser creatures. That sped Garuud up to the max and he began sprinting at full speed at Sepkis prime Once he reached him Sepkis hit him with a blast directly knocking Garuud back. Garuud got back up in a flash and threw a fusion grenade into its eye. Once it was distracted, he jumped up and used all of his force in one punch and destroyed Sepkis prime once more. " Shouldve moved you over grown disco ball. hahaha" Garuud moved into the rupture to see Alice and Grixis in some sort of deadlock of darkness power. Which started to seep into Garuud. " Yes, that is right feeeeeeeed me." A dark voice spoke up from within Garuud. He began to lose himself. "No!" Garuud put his hand to his face his other eye that was not covered began to move around in his socket all by itself scanning... hunting as Garuud stood there and twitched "All.... all this darkness... is over whelming."
-
"How about this, Xol." Leech calls out across the room. "You shut off the power tap that I'm sinking into, you get on with whatever evil scheme your trying to accomplish. I've drained enough energy for now." "But in return, you have to do something very, very drastic. Y'know, like what you tried doing with me earlier, but even more dramatic." She smiles under her helmet, knowing how funny this will be.
-
Garuud feels the control of his body slipping. The Dark energy in the room is overwhelming and he cant help it. Finally his eye focusses on Grixis. " Prey" The dark voice says. That is Garuud began screaming. Dark energy began poring into him and out of him He began to move erratically smashing everything around him. "Prey.. prey.... prey.... prey.....PREY!" Then Garuud stopped moving all of a sudden and his eyes turned black and his armor began turning white that is when he looked up at Grixis and his mouth opened and smoke curled out. With that he moved with insane speed toward Grixis completely out of control. " Graaaaaaaah!" He screamed in a high pitched voice as he sprinted towards Grixis.
-
"...and never mind what I just said. I found a way out of here." She looks at Garuud then back up at Grixis. "I'll let you handle him." Then she raises the other arm, the one that isn't channeling the energy, towards Garuud. He staggers at the Overwhelming amount of power he begins to recieve. Leech then moves her hands together slowly, and when they finally touch, Leech no longer channels the power of the Oversoul, but instead watches as Garuud deals with the full force of it. She looks up at Xol. "I think it is time for me to go. Thank you for the lovely amounts of power, we were having a hard time gaining it. Sorry about tricking you though, really didn't want it to be this way. But still, game of chess and whatever Lokumi talks about in his spare time. See ya round, Xol." With that, Leech turns and opens the door to the room, walking out easily. Leaving the Reborn Energies to deal with an Overpowered Garuud. Literally.
-
Garuud feels the power rush into him Garuud stops moving completely as he becomes super charged with the energy from the oversoul. " Yes.... yes.... yes..... feeeeed meeeee!" Garuud began screaming with a insane volume and then sprinted full speed at Grixis. He was there in a instant with a black sol edge in hand swinging upwards with insane speed. The wind of the strike blew back reborn behind Grixis.
-
Edited by Zalamiir: 11/24/2015 2:32:57 AMThe Reborn blown back by the attack immediately dissipated back into Reborn energy, which combined with the Dark energies currently flowing into the Oversoul. But, Grixis and Sarkon stood resolute. Molkir and the Deathsingers continued their work, and the four Blades and Shadows of Grixis focused on the Guardian. "[i]Sorry, warrior of Light, you will find us more challenging."[/i] Calvik said. Men'kaar cackled, "[i]The Dark War has already begun! Hive everywhere raise swords in name of Sarkon, and exterminating those that resist![/i] "[i]Face it, Guardian, you're order is doomed! Once we take the power of Oryx, the Hive will be what it once was, and the Deep will consume all!" [/i] Vôlik-Dal exclaimed. All three of their swords glowed the energies that they controlled. Stronix hefted his axe, ready to butcher the Guardian. "[i]You will not interfere!"[/i] They exclaimed. With that, they marched toward the Guardian.
-
Garuud started laughing maniacally " This is all you brought? This will barely be a appetizer! " Garuud laughed and began to move at even higher speeds still being fed by the over soul. Garuud began swinging his sword at insanely speeds and stuck the fire knight in the chest "Graaaaaaaaah!" Garuud looked towards the other knights. " Tooo slow!"
-
Edited by Zalamiir: 11/24/2015 2:50:05 AM"[i]Too sure of yourself."[/i] Vôluk-Dal responded. He reached around and grabbed the Guardian by the back of his neck, and threw him in the air in the direction he came. But while he was still in the air, his sword became a fiery whip like blade. He slashed it in the air at the Guardian. It hit him square on, slamming him into the ground. With his free hand, he focused his Solar energy into his palm, it becoming a glowing orange claw of fire. Then he pressed down on his chest where the sword had struck, cauterizing it. He focused back on the Guardian that had now gotten up. He could take a hit, that was for sure. Men'kaar dashed past him with incredible speeds, his sword surging with Arc energy. "[i]You're mine!"[/i] he cackled. Their swords clashed in an array flames and bolts. "[i]You're a fast one! It will make killing you all the more enjoyable!"[/i]
-
The wound from the whip closed instantly with a bone like protrusion and he seemed to lose more control over himself. Garuud let go of his sword with one hand and coated it in fire while holding the knight in place with the pressure from his sword. He then punched through the knights shoulder . " graaah! " Garuud's eyes lit up and he threw the now weakened knight back towards the other one using the hole as a grip. Garuud began rushing towards them again even faster this time roaring the whole time.
-
The Blades merely stepped out of the way as Men'kaar flew past them. Men'kaar hit the ground soon after. Then he got up, immediately getting back into a fighting pose, as if the wound in his shoulder didn't exist. Calvik then stepped in between the group and the charging Guardian, his Void blade glowing all the while. When the Guardian got to a distance he found suitable, he swiped at the air twice, sending two long, blade thin streaks of Void energy at the Guardian, making them form an X shape. Once they were away, he charged directly behind them. The Void streaks hit the Guardian, it did damage him, but if it so much as staggered him, he didn't show it. It was only immediately after that did they clash together, his strength matching the Guardians. That was good, it wasn't because he was known to be stronger than the average Knight, but the strength that this one had when he got the jump on Vôlik-Dal and threw Men'kaar across the chamber didn't seem to be with him anymore. The surge of power that he received was fading away. But, might as well get him to use a lot while he was in front of him. There blades sparked sporadically as they were held at a standstill. [i]"Is this all that you are capable of? Don't tell me that you are getting soft, now that you fought only two of us."[/i] Time for the push. "[i]Give me your all, you wretched disgrace!"[/i]
