"Vio? HOLY SHIT, IS THAT REALLY YOU?!" The familiar voice of the shadow user was heard.
He rose up from one of the benches in the courtyard, rushing over to Vio and wrapping his arms around her into a hug
English
-
[i]"ROYAL?"[/i] Vio almost cried with joy; finally, a familiar face. She had not seen the rest of her old friends, at least not yet, and finally seeing one–even though they had their fair share of arguments–was exhilarating. She returned Royal's hug, smothering her face in his shoulder happily, before reluctantly pulling away. [i]"How've you been!?"[/i]
-
"Bah, what does it matter. Just became a sensei of the place, doing the good work. What do I matter! I'm stuck here. Where the hell have [i]you [/i]been!?" He asked, taking a step back He smiled widely, and she noticed that his was once fresh scar was nothing more than a mostly Faded white line on his face. His hair was much better Kept, and shorter. Similar to a buzz cut, actually. Same green eyes, same stupid and goofy smile though
-
[i]"I've been... around,"[/i] She said simply. [i]"And I suddenly became a sensei, as well!"[/i] She laughed, smiling widely. She looked almost exactly like she had when she first arrived at the dojo; boyish purple hair, violet eyes, pale skin complexion, and a young, mesomorphic build. She hugged Royal once more, before her expression became serious. [i]"... but listen. Y'know those rumors about that 'deity' in Ollimand?"[/i]
-
"Yeah. I heard some pretty wild s**t. He's taking kids. Why do you ask?" Royal asked, looking at her questioningly
-
[i]"Well, they're rumors no longer. I just visited that village, see.... And I really want to kill the bitch. But I've recently realized that I'm not very good at doing a lotta damage... so I need help. Sorry to ask this of you so soon after our reunion, but... would you mind? There'll be loot, to say the very least."[/i] She blushed slightly, averting her gaze.
-
"I'd love to help you, Vio. But if she's a Deity, a full out one at least, we'll need back up." Roy said, looking around the courtyard.
-
"Backup's arrived." [i]A faint *whoosh* was heard, as dropping down the top of the Dojo's wall was a giant, obsidian black shape. Landing down with her fist touching the earth, the being would rise up and study the two, her helm in one hand and her spear in another.[/i] [i]Olivia. From where and how, was unknown.[/i] "...So.. this is nice." [i]She said, a little awkwardly.[/i]
-
[i]"What the sh–"[/i] Vio jumped back in surprise, shaking her head. While she had never spoken to Olivia directly, she certainly recognized the redheaded dragonslayer; and so, introductions were not needed. [i]"Uh, okay. I'm assuming you heard what I just said, and we can get going, yeah?"[/i]
-
"O- Olivia?" Royal asked, looking at the young red head. "Do you remember me? Your uncle, well uncle being used loosely, Roy?" He asked, looking at the young woman. "Because your brother has been so worried about you... He joined a Mandalorian Clan to find you..."
-
"...Of course. Of course, I.. ...I didn't know," [i]Olivia went silent, nodding a little in some form of newfound sorry. It was odd, though the hardened giant of a woman - still quite young, too - recollected herself.[/i] "We should speak later. After we kill this deific bitch."
-
[i]"... right."[/i] Vio had stayed silent during niece and uncle reunion, but it was time to kill a bitch. She snapped her fingers to cast an illusion more complicated than any she had cast before; one that almost made it as though they had teleported. The next time they blinked, they would reopen their eyes in an open plain in Ollimand. About a mile to their west was the town Vio had spoke of; the town of Ashley. The time had changed by a lot; it was already dusk, whether on the same day or the next was difficult to tell. Vio pointed at the village in the distance. [i]"That's the village deity is terrorizing."[/i]
-
"Is this an Illusion? Are you showing us what he's done?" Royal asked, noticing the changes that had occurred around them.
-
[i]Olivia remained silent as she studied the town in the distance, her eyes squinting as she allowed the end of her spear's shaft to rest upon the ground, her left fist clenching around her helmet before she then placed the piece of armor upon her head, the helm locking into place perfectly.[/i] "We shouldn't be wasting our time. If the bаstard's still killing innocents, we should end them, and [i]now[/i]."
-
[i]"Right. So, from what I've gathered, there's a church in that village. The church is where sacrifices are offered, but the villagers don't actually know where the deity is. So, we're gonna find the bitch, and I think searching that church is a good starting point."[/i] Vio began walking towards the town, pulling her chainsaw off her back and holding it reading in her right hand.
-
"Maybe we should ask around? See if anyone has noticed anything that happens after the sacrifices are put in the church." Royal suggested, following after Vio as his sword formed in hand
-
"Asking around would give our position away. Then again - [i]I[/i] give our position away. But we need to kill this bitch, here and. No escaping for her crimes." [i]Olivia spoke sternly, raising up her spear and following from the rear, her right hand tightly clasping the weapon's obsidian black shaft.[/i]
-
They would soon arrive at the village, the church a ways ahead of them; in sight. [i]"Hmm... yeah. We want to catch the deity off guard, and asking around will definitely alert him. Besides, like I said, I came here to investigate a bit before this; I'm sure the deity's somewhere in that church, just dunno where."[/i] Around the village, doors were closed everywhere. There was not a single person outside, and for good reason; it had begun to rain, and hard. Lightning could be seen in the distance, accompanied by a loud strike of thunder.
-
"So we're going in, Blind during a rain storm. That's never a good sign, is it?" Royal said with a chuckle, trying to lighten the mood
-
"It is when this bitch'll be soaking wet with water. Let's hope that I fry this deity's ass with lightning - and not myself." [i]Olivia spoke sternly, looking up at the solemn buildings that surrounded the three as she went silent, still following Vio. Her whole body was tense, her very being prepared for combat.[/i]
-
They eventually made their way the doors of the church, and Vio slowly pushed open the massive doors, Cathedral of the Deep style–UGH FUСKING CATHEDRAL OF THE FUСKING DEE– Within the church, all was dark. The stench of rotting corpses filled the room, and the benches were people would normally sit were all gone. There was a long, red carpet that led up to the church podium thing. Lining the edges of the carpet were the bodies of decapitated children, ranging from infants to twelve, thirteen year olds (no, Ike wasn't among them). Some of the bodies, most notably the older ones in age, appeared freshly killed, and still had a good amount of blood in them. Behind the podium was, ironically, a Satanic ritual circle, painted with blood. The floor was carved out between the lines of the ritual circle, the depression about two inches deep.
-
"Oh this is fúcked up..." Royal whispered, looking over the bodies of the dead children in sadness. He closed his eyes, actually mumbling a prayer for the fallen
-
"...Just ignore it. It'll be fine, just.. carry on." [i]Olivia muttered with a voice that resonated with a burning hatred. She did not pray or whisper for the fallen, her fist tightening as she continued onwards.[/i]
-
[i]"Alright, so I'm willing to bet a couple bucks that that ritual circle over there has something to do with the deity."[/i] She walked up right to the edge of the ritual circle, examining it. [i]"But how do we 'activate' it?"[/i]
-
"Blood sacrifice." Royal said simply, looking up from his prayer. "If anything is true, it would be worth a shot. Just a small cut somewhere along your arm. See what that does."
-
"...Then I'll be the sacrifice. Fine, fine." [i]The left glove to Olivia's armor folded back into her set of armor, before picking up a stray piece of debris from the earth. Bloodied and jagged, it was, and terrifyingly knifelike. She raised it up and sliced open her palm, preparing for the very worst.[/i]
