End Game (1)

["Thrush"]

OOC: Okay.. uh.. I'm entering in, the middle of this, I don't know what my statistics were, back then, so, I'm using my statistics as of now. Thrush wasn't even KNOWN back then.. so uh... time paradox. I'll keep within context, but knowledge and statistic-wise are after the fight with Aureus Hayes and Levi.

Gods.

Plural. Meaning more then one.

Sacrilege. Blasphemy. Disgrace to human kind.

How so VERY INTERESTING..

..KWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.

Obviously, something is wrong with your mind. There are no 'Gods'. There is only one God. Not that there are many believers out there that could CONGREGATE long enough to do JACK SHIT about anything, while they're off KILLING each OTHER off... Stupid Christians. Greedy Jews. Fucking turban heads. But what was this? 'GODS'!? And.. 'GREEK' Gods, for that matter? What the hell was this bullshittery!?

..Actually, what are 'Greek Gods'? Okay yeah. Supposed to be better then best, but.. you can 'kill them'? Then.. how are they Gods? Did not 'God' create the Heavens and the earth single-handedly? Make light and dark? All the animals in the world? And all that shit? No. NonononononononononoNO. From what he understood, from his.. 'brief' briefing, from Mr. Asiv, who had randomly called him into his office, surprised at him for not knowing Greek Mythology, The 'Greek' Gods joined together to help maintain order over everything. But apparently, they hadn't created ANYTHING. WHAT THE HELL!? AND THEY WERE GODS!?

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA... Ahh.. THAT'S A FUCKING RIOT.

And then the laughter died, and Thrush had enough of this bullshit. He didn't care about the 'Gods'. They were to be tools to feed him. ..But for the fact that the School Captain was there.. well...

He accepted the mission with a touch of a more serious tone.

..So obviously, it all fell away and Thrush was simply BURSTING with energy.

I'd like to fuck me some of 'em GODS and BEAT THE

SHIT OUTTA 'EM... HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA...

The target building.

Eliminate Zeus.

Those were Aufseher's orders.

However... ze School Captain.. Mitsuki Park..

Direct orders?

• Stop Fighting On School Grounds. (Exception: They Strike First)
  
• Never Kneel Before Her.

...

..Well, looked like he was in the clear. This wasn't ze 'School Grounds', now, was it? WAS IT!? And quite honestly, Thrush'd been wanting to do some serious hurting on someone.. but.. physically speaking, he was still in pretty bad shape. Levi... Aureus... hahahahahaha... very powerful. He had to use Jonathan's help to defeat them.. and with 'Tatheostulo Devastal' of all things.. bleh.

He had to recover. Which meant, he couldn't rely on that damned technique. Besides, he needed to feed badly, so, Jonathan was going to WAIT whether he LIKED IT or NOT. No. Nay. Master was up there. And that meant Master was in trouble.

Keh.

They'd BETTER not harm her..

..Only HE was allowed to do that, after all!

Racing through the building, to team one's drop off. Had to be swift, had to be fast, had to get there, didn't know how long they'd last. The blood is pumping, bodies are dumping, bumping past about seven dozen mercenaries who didn't quite believe what THE FUCK they'd seen. Looking fairly green, they're Gods were mean, but a man with white hair had just come out to play, the GERMAN WAY! AS ZE NAZI'S SAY:

"AWOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO[/size]OO--- OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!--"[/color]

SIEG HEIL.

Rushing down past them, backtracking, lashing, his hat tightly snug over his eyes! BIG SURPRISE! They were chasing him, shock worn thin! Well, well, 'tis the dinner bell, time to go to HELL!! A Demon Wolf has come out to attack! A dodge and a smack! He's bobbing his head in a weird way like he's BLACK. KACK, KACK, KACK! They're looking him strange, swinging their baseballs bats all deranged. But a man with white hair had just come out to play, the GERMAN WAY! AS ZE NAZI'S SAY:

"SIEG HEIL!"

Blows are exchanged! Don't know what rhymes with exchanged, except deranged! HAHAHAHA! Makes no sense, but the fly has dropped, the cock goes out! TO OPPONENTS TO CUM ON! They'll wake up at dawn with MAN JAM DECAYING ON---THEM! Seven down, but a mess is up, hearing some commotion, guess my time is up, 'ze story's up! The bodies are everywhere, just as proof of their mess! Team One, no less! But there are only TWO!? WHAT THE FOO!? DID SOMEONE HAVE TO GO TO THE F-ING LOO!? But a man with white hair had just come out to play, the GERMAN WAY! AS ZE NAZI'S SAY:

"SIEG HEIL!"---

..."MASTER!"

Carrying a few new bruises from his encounter with some of the mercenaries, a wily look was on Thrush's face, as he stood, beaten up a bit, in his nice, slick Nazi outfit. Made a DAMN loud din on the way up, with the monstrous howling, and his constant screaming in German, as well as looks of disgust and fear, as he began to ejaculate on the fallen, to.. 'leave his mark'. And there was that other 'S.H.C.P.' 'John Ong', the one that Jonathan had told him about.. how Jonathan learned about Qi. Kah. Thrush had known about Qi for a long time. For what was left of him, a major amount of him was composed OF Qi, after all.. that will to fight, to never give up!? HAHAHAHAHAHA.. Aye. AYE. There was only one person who had EVER truly defeated both his body and his spirit.. and she was standing here.

"..HAY GUYS, WHAT'S GOING ON HERE!?"

A wily lash of the tongue, and his fingers prodding around all over the place as he.. spotted his favorite weapon. A TRASH CAN. He gave a quick glance over to Mitsuki..

After all, the guy was tough, and, maybe so was his stance. He hadn't been here long enough to know what the hell was going on. So what to do!?

ATTACK! ATTACK! ATTACK! ATTACK! SIEG HEIL! FAIL NO ONE! VICTORY FOR THE SUPERVISOR! VICTORY FOR THE SCHOOL CAPTAIN! VICTORY FOR THE S.H.C.P.!

"HAZAAAAAAAAA---"

Charging at the 'God', trash can in hand, he intended to throw off the fighting stance with a very simple, but forceful move. A 'shove'. Watching carefully over the top of it, he was watching to change direction, so that he didn't accidentally crash into someone, or could throw himself backwards or something..

However.. something else he screamed right after his war cry, almost to make it discreet.. "---AAAAAOrdersAAAAMASTER!?AAAHHHH!!!!"

I sincerly hope you do.

Because I have no idea what the HELL I'm doing right now...

...

THIS IS SO MUCH FUN!!!![/i]

"SIEG HEIL!"---

..."MASTER!"

Thrush...please, please don't do anything stupid...[/color]

And with that, she launched forward, not sparing him a glance, noting that this was a serious battle.

There were a couple of things wrong with his - Hades' - attack, partially because John Ong and Mitsuki were on opposite sides. By the time he was done kicking John Ong, Mitsuki would have disappeared, and it would take him a while to find out where she is - even though it's a very small amount of time, in battle, even a nanosecond counts. She launched forward towards the god exactly he launched an attack at John. By the time his kick connected with John - if it ever did - her strike to the back of his neck would have connected. Using her stealth and speed, it would be hard to figure out where she was; and seeing that Mitsuki was striking a vital point right beneath his neck, he would get knocked out, depending on how much force is used. And because it's a simple hard jab she was doing - with a lot of force - there was nothing really for him to do, because should he turn around and try to grab her hand, it would only end up in failure, due to Mitsuki's legs being bent like a spring-board to jump away, with the fact that it was a jab - like a quick strike - and hands are hard to catch now-a-days.

"---AAAAAOrdersAAAAMASTER!?AAAHHHH!!!!"

She heard him; she heard him. She was in the middle of attacking someone though, which is why she didn't say anything. Yet. It would've been good if he saw that she was attacking Hades, and not go through with the whole trash can attack, because Hades can move so that it hits her instead... Oh my. She just hoped that neither John or Thrush get's damaged so early within battle, for there were going to be tough obstacles along the way. And if anything, these were still students of 259, and it was her job to protect them. What irked her, was that how was she supposed to protect them, if she can't even protect herself?

If anything, though, she would rather be the one to be left behind. Living with the guilt that someone other than her - from the school - died today? It would be too much.

And besides...

She wasn't fighting this battle for Asiv. Nor was she fighting it for herself, or for the students.

This is all for you, Dionysus.[/color]

[John]

John watched as Hades kicked a body at him as a distraction, but Mitsuki had already took off, John dropped an axe kick down on the body and stepped over it, Thrush and Mitsuki had both gone into attack mode, but John only prepared himself to take advantage of the next situation if their combined attack did not work. If Hades successfully got out fo the situation he was in now, and was able to knock both Thrush and Mitsuki away, then John would leap in and drop his knee down onto Hades' head while it burst into flames, though now he would be sporting a nice pair of short shorts, but it was worth it for a hit, but even then he was still speculating.

If he wasn't able to stop them both, then John would find an advantage point and keep an eye on the situation waiting for an opening.

[Hades]

Hades saw it all, that dull bored expression alogn with those cold lifeless eyes did not change one iota, he saw it all, unlike his fellow gods he did not pretend anything, he did not get cocky, he did not hold back, these fools where about to see first hand the kind of devistation he could leave in his wake. As Mitsuki dropped into stealth mode a ghost like figure of himself moved infront of her, it looked connected to Hades like a shadow, but in fact he had just moved faster than their eyes could pick up, plus the illusion had been mastered over the years meaning he was really Hades Lord of the Dead. His physical looking form moved into the ghostly version of himself and shot out a punch to hit Mitsuki in the side of the head, but the trash can wielding wierdo would also have to be dealt with in the same time span, so after the punch Hades would hopefully be able to move once again.

That ghostly figure moving up and out of the way of Thrush, but just to his side, a sadistic smile apon the ghost's face as he mlooked at Thrush, using the one of the best mind games there was, complete and utter over-powering force and speed. He had just shown that it would take more than a few simple tricks to bring him down, but was there somethign else they wheren's seeing? Some weakness to this illusion he has. Maybe, but the only way for them to see it is to try to discover it, the thing is the weakness to this illusion is so great that the only way to keep someone from taking advantage is by installing fear into an apponent.

((OoC: Think Chronicles of Riddick, the Overloard of the Necromongers.))

[Mitsuki Park]

Copying complete.[/color]

Mitsuki got hit. Wham.

But she's fine. Stings, but fi- actually, it hurts like a mother.

Her eyes seemed to have been glowing a light shade of gray; it was a shame that she had to use her qi so early on in the game, but she had 24 hours before she'd break down. Twenty-four hours was long enough. A fight couldn't possibly last longer than an hour, could it? She had to use her qi correctly. If she did anything wrong...if she lost connection with her own self.. Concentration.. She flew back a couple of feet, but caught herself on the bar for the stairway and pushed her body back up. Let's see what it's like to move as fast as Hades, neh? Her internal body would change massively to match his speed. The only thing dangerous about her qi is unlike Hades, who knew his limit on his speed, Mitsuki did not know hers. Ten minutes? Twenty minutes? Ten seconds?

She moved.

Simply a blur.

Almost immediately she knew the strengths and weaknesses of being able to move this fast. It was almost predictable; almost. A weakness is the color of the "shade"; the darker it is, the more recent. Wherever you move, the blur moves with. If the blur is darker and it's moving right, you punch a little to the right to hit on contact. Same goes to the left. However, there are possibilities where they could see your incoming attack, and move to the opposite side. Mitsuki didn't know that yet, because she hadn't the chance to see if she'd be able to dodge attacks as easily.

Metal baseball in hand, she planned on slamming it against his shoulder, and depending on what he did, she'd start her own little chain of events from there. One thing is for sure though: He would not be able to dodge the next series of attacks. His most concerned opponent would be her.

Teaches you to mess with me, b-tch.[/color]

["Thrush"]

Fear? Insanity!? OR WHAT!?

SKID, SKID, SKID, SKID, SKID, SKID...

Well, if you don't get the joke in that, you're obviously neither black, nor cultured in hip hop, or rap. But then, that's not how you spell---never mind.

Why was Thrush skidding to a halt? Because of two things: One. Master had just received a huge smack to the side of her face... and two... because some guy was whirling around him.. So he whirled around once, in the hopes of hitting it. Probably wouldn't. But then, he began charging towards Mitsuki.

...Shit.

Shit, shit, shit, shit, shit, shit, shit, shit, SHIT...

There was no more words being sent... but.. suddenly, the school captain rushed out.. and... began moving EXACTLY like Hades did...

...

What in the world!? What in God's name!?

Did she just... COPY HIM!?

Well now, that would explain a few things. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA...

"OYE! BLACK BOY! CATCH!" Thrush screamed suddenly, as he spilled the contents of the trashcan just a little to his very left.. before hurling the trash can itself in the air, a half-a-foot to the right.. and charging along the lines of the spilt content. Why not? Sure, you move fast, but, can you watch each and every single damn step you take, that you won't slip!? HAHAHAHAHAHAHA... oh wait, shit. He sincerely hoped that Mitsuki was on the right on that.. but he charged in... and began... well... spiiiiiiinnning! SPINNING LIKE A GOD-DAMNED TOP, in the hopes of hitting him, on his left foot's tip-toe's as his right foot kept up the momentum..

---Crap. Body can't hold out for too long... Gack... gack...

Eventually, whether he hit something, or was hit back, or just would topple over dizzily throughout the room, he fell.. but, saw something of interest over in the trash can. Meh. Shall I? Why not. It's shiny, after all...

Crawling slowly, slowly... he.. moved over for something very shiny... and rather sharp. Looked somewhat dulled however, but...

Eh. It was underneath some papers. Would've never seen it, unless he was on the floor.

Gotsta try for it.. meh.

....

Freaking useless here..

Notes:
-Er... Thrush still doesn't know what the hell is going on!-

[John]

John was about to rush in after the attacks had been sent, but his own eyes picked up something very, very interesting. Mitsuki used some sort of Copy technique just by watching Hades move once. Maybe now would be a very good time to just lean back and conserve his energy, he may be the only defence if thsi battle turns out bad, but he had faith in Thrush and Mitsuki to win this. So he closed his eyes and concentrated on the sounds to make sure he could keep up with what was going on. Though it was difficult since two of them where moving faster than the frames in his brain could pick up. He did hear something odd though fall out of the trash can when Thrush spilled it out.

'Interesting. . .'

John's job was to rest and take care of the next God they may encounter, which would allow Thrush and Mitsuki time to rest and hopefully recover, since he had noticed most Qi and techniques at this school had a backlash effect.

[Hades]

'What?!'

Hades wasn't angry, he was too surprised by Mitsuki copying his movements to do anything about the noises he should of heard. But getting back in the game and keeping your head cool, was one of Hades specialties. Yet he ignored the noises and did his motiosn again. thsi time he would attack Thrush, avoiding his attack by grabbing his leg as it came around and pushing him over while liftign the leg as well.

He didn't have time to do anything more damaging than that because Mitsuki was on the attack. He looked just in time to see the bat on the swing, so he spun allowing the bat to pass by, but he left hsi back exposed, he had to spin faster to get back around before it could be used against him, if it doesn;t then he will throw a simple left snap jab. If so then we will have to see what happens.

["Thrush"]

Wearing Down: Crunch Time

'What?!'

...Simply... MUSIC to my ears.

---"EWAUGH!?" was all Thrush could mutter out, as the blurs rushed past him... and he could see, as he was spinning like a top, that he was.. being spun around in the.. aira...arararara...!!! AHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!

*WOOMCH!*

An immediate sense of vertigo, followed by his stomach spinning in slow motion, as Thrush was flipped backwards... crashing rather painfully with the aforesaid 'woomch' onto the wall... sliding down, cracks embedded into the wall, as he stared out before him..

"..What the... hell was..---"

A few coughs. Of blood. Shit.. this was NOT good for the body. Feeling his body slowly peel off, he fell, onto his chest.. with yet another 'woomch', as he fell close to the layers of papers that he had spilled out towards Hades. Apparently, he was careful with his feet...

..That glint.

Quickly, he scrambled to it, his hat just barely covering his eyes, as he wobbily got up to his feet, and rushed, falling down again, into the papers, hands scrambling, mustering whatever energy he had left, and was trying to recover. That was only one attack, after all.. he could.. take a few more..

..Tongue licked his mouth satisfied, as this. A life or death situation. How EXCITING! However, this may have been enough time for Hades to spin around. However. Thrush was moving as quickly as he could, for whatever THAT could be counted for.. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA... ahh... but you see... he had slipped in his shiny, sharp prize into his pocket.. and prayed to God.. that Hades wouldn't notice...

...It took him a few moments for it to dawn on him what exactly he was thinking. Praying to a GOD... when he was fighting one!? HAHAHAHAHAHA... Well, life was always PLEASANTLY absurd, now, wasn't it? Of course, he was thinking this to himself, AFTER, he had gotten into his usual, though a bit 'sloppier' boxing position, and attempted a 3-foot (honestly, didn't feel like overextending himself today..) range flicker jab, quickly retracting it... and revved himself up for a next one, as the knife was practically burning a hole in his pocket...

"..OYE, EMO-BOY! OVER HERE, MAN!"

He'd get vengeance.. even if he was useless. He'd help Master kick his ass.. however best as he could. After all, Master was familiar with his attack style, and could therefore probably evade it, in case he landed a shot that was close too her, but he was aiming for a little bit of the right of the God-Damned shadow thing.. hoping it would shift just in time.. just in time. Though, the jab itself was probably not to the full extent of it's nature, since Master DID beat him down rather quickly... that, and he wasn't in tip-top shape, either..

OOC: Occurred to me that Jonathan doesn't actually know that Hades is.. well, Hades, by name. Oh well.

Notes:
-Thrush has adopted a more 'cautious' strategy!

[Mitsuki Park]

..this ends now..[/color]

As she noticed his figure shifting to the other side, she merely let go of the bat so her body wouldn't fling in any other direction. The bat, in turn, would fly towards the wall at an incredible speed, causing a loud bang to go off. At the same time she let go of her bat, she leaned on her left leg and begin lifting her right, aiming a solid kick at the back of his neck. The faster he spun around to face Mitsuki depends on how effective her attack is. For instance, if he turned around too soon, she would snap his neck, therefor, killing him. If he turned around slower than too soon, he'd get knocked out, and most likely get a bruising. If, however, by any chance her kick did not make it, she would aim a palm strike towards his trachea, where the results could also be quite fatal. If her leg is caught, she would be quick to kick off with her free leg and kick him right under the neck, and if that leg is caught, then her figure would be at an upright position to sock him multiple times in the face; harder than you can imagine. She would do all of this at a relative high speed, faster than Hades would be able to do anything about it, simply because it doesn't take as much strength to move an arm than it does your body.

Though, none of that will happen, simply because she was sure that her kick will hit it's destination, and Hades will get knocked out, at the very least.

Oh, she wasn't doing this for her own good.

If Thrush were smart enough, please, then he'd know that while Hades is busy dealing with her, then it would be his move to strike. She didn't know what the hell John was doing, or where he even was, but she didn't have even a slight nano-second to spare. Not now, not until this is over.

[Hades]

Hades didn't have time to worry about what the wierd Germanian boy was up to, because the princess was making the same illusions of speed as him. He knew its weaknesses and strengths, he was alittle more experienced in its use than the princess, but it doesn't take long to get the hang of it no matter who you are. also the eyes have to be particulerly trained to deal with the illusions esspecially if its just multiple body p0arts doing it instead of the whole body.

But Thrush had distracted him long enough to be snuck up on by Mitsuki. Hades tried to flash around to see what was happening as he moved otu fo the way of Thrushes punch, but was in time to recieve a well placed kick. He went to one knee and held himself there, forcing against the peralizing knock out blow. He was a god, not some mortal that can be defeated this easily, right? He would nto go down, not without a fight. He needed to take over Olympis after all. He needed to rule over more than just the dead. He could nto do that if he lost. But even Hades, or the man who took his form, would fall from such a blow.

"I. . . Am. . . Hades."

And with that he would finish and fall to the ground unconciouse. Defeated, and would probably come to his senses when he woke up, that is, if he wasn't too far gone.

["Thrush"]

Sullen Spoils Of Battle

Theme Song

[/size][/url]

Never. Never had he felt so outmatched, exhilarated, in awe... Well, that's not entirely true. There was much more pressure in his match against the School Captain. The difference in the fight, the DIFFERENCE. With her, it was of justice, with him... this seemed all but pointless. His arms were whizzing, feeling like they were going to break. Still weak as ever, as always. But there was no use in wishing that this mission had been assigned at a later date, no use in wishing for more time to recover. This was this, now and the now. Every punch, so smoothly evaded by Hades... every attack... my God, angering Thrush more and more. Didn't want to be useless. Didn't want to become obsolete. Wanted to help. Would take down this guy, for---

---A swift blur slammed into Hades... and almost at once, the man in black was on his knee. For a moment, it appeared as though he would simply get back up again, the will to fight obvious. Strong in him. Strong spirit. So easily stolen from him in a single attack, enough to jar anyone's head, spine... whole body... Well, if he was one of these 'Gods', then, he would get back up. Thrush could easily believe then that he was a God, or at least damn near to it... but, but..

"I. . . Am. . . Hades."

To anything of poetic effect, you might say. In a way, this was not an absolute victory, defeat, or loss. Hades had fallen. But for such strong, powerful words, you might have thought that he had won. And such it was. Had master just destroyed this man's mind, killed him? And all Thrush could do was stand there, hurling useless punches? He was half-getting ready to charge, hand at his knife, and his stance suggested he was going to charge in for one last-ditch attack on Hades, but there he was. There they all were. Thrush rushed forward, suddenly, and.. kneeled before 'Hades' fallen figure. Hades? His name was Hades?...

Knife was drawn.. Thrush raised it suddenly, as he kneeled before the head, and brought it down upon Hades. To end it.

---Right beside Hades's head.

He bent over 'Hades', his mouth next to Hades's left ear.. a subtle whisper..

"Ruhen Sie jetzt, 'Hades'."

Slowly, his gloved hand went to rest over Thrush. A seeming change of personality, or something, his eyes just slightly open, to behold the fallen warrior. He slowly looked to Master, and nodded, though, a bit of disappointment was in his eyes. Disappointment in himself.

"..Know zat you have been defeated by... ze School Captain of Public Highschool 259. Vielen Dank für Ihre Schlacht. Rest, damit vielleicht... Sie mir die Ehre des Kämpfens Sie geben werden, wenn Sie leben. Wenn nicht... auf mich wartet, auf der anderen Seite. Ich werde stärker sein, bis ich ankomme. Ich verspreche." he finished whispering, before nodding raising up his head, and nodding again, this time, to himself, almost. Hades's defeat was not unexpected. After all, this was master, who had fought him. Ze School Captain. Single-handedly taking down a God, didn't she? Hahahahahahahahahaha...

...I really am useless.

Quietly, his hands went over Hades's body, and flipped him over.. searching him. Spoils of victory, after all. Around Hades's neck was a necklace... the only thing of seeming value. Walking hurriedly, over to a black cloak.. his eyes twitched slightly. These things were not ordinary. Quietly folding it up... he put the two items neatly by Hades's body, and then, standing up, smacking his gloved hands off against one another, cleaning them off slightly, he gave a final nod to Mitsuki.

"...Master... as victor, it is your right to distribute your spoils accordingly, or, for this matter, having earned this victory single-handedly... keep them."

Peering over Hades's body for a bit though.. he turned back to her.

"..Alzo... should I break his legs? Just as a precaution measure. Put him out of commission for a few weeks, but more importantly, put him out of commission for ze rest of ze night, ja? Vhat are your orders?"

..Why was he acting so.. formal? Why so respectful to an enemy? Why this sudden break in character? Well... put simply, one thing Thrush had absolute respect for was strength... and honor. A 'God' defending his floor... standing for his duty. And also... because he was in the presence of his master, and twice now, she had shown him how weak he was in comparison to him, how obsolete he was.

Only...

...Only, if only, if only, but useless hopes do nothing.

..

But only, if I was a little bit stronger.

So that I wouldn't be her burden...

Adjusting his hat on his head, his eyes averted to the side, to the ground.

So thrilling to fight stronger people, but, if he couldn't even hit them once? ...That takes the fun out of a good brawl. You could say it's a bit disheartening. But emotions were irrelevent. He'd shut them off, if he'd have to. After all, Jonathan could do it, why couldn't he? Just become a soldier again. And you won't have to remember, have to think... have to know...

...How pathetic you really are.

GAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA..

LETS GET THE PARTY STARTED UP AGAIN.

A wily smile lashed out onto Thrush again..

Vell zhen... VHAT ARE YOUR ORDERS!?

KWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!

[Mitsuki Park]

Items Gained (For Admin to distribute)
Hades Coat +6 Str, Con
Lord of The Dead Necklace +4 Wis

He fell. Thank God...

Wearily, she looked over at Thrush, and nodded.

"Break his legs..."

Quiet, though still audible. She had to make sure that once Hades woke up, he wouldn't be able to use his legs. Though, she figured he'd be knocked out for a while, and when he wakes up, he won't exactly be happy to find his legs in a deformed shape.

"Thank you, Thrush.."

Again, quiet. He may not have known that he played an important key role in this battle. Without him, this battle would've been lost.

She began to wonder though; if Hades was like this, just how strong was Zeus? This question bothered her, but she quickly pushed her thoughts to the back of her mind. She would turn away from the sight of Thrush breaking his legs, only because she disliked the sound of cracking noises within the body. She would start, once again, to climb the flight of stairs toward Saint and Rick, where another goddess awaited them.

It'll all be over soon..[/color]

[John]

((OoC: Mitsuki you can use the items, they wont be distributed till after the thread.))

Unfortunately John had already left them and went upstairs. To find a goddess type fighting the two from earlier. Oddly enough he had been able to go unnoticed for the time being. He walked in though to interupt anything that mite be going on at the moment. And began to project his 'aura' into the room causing a heat wave around his body. Not fire, just really hot air. Making the area extremely wavy, and since hot air rises, and it was rising fast, his hair was moving around as well as his cloths. this was a simple tactic that he had understood from the gods mind set. They all had special abilities, that showed visually, which would also cause people and them to believe they where gods.

So it was a trick.

"Maybe you should give up, before I kill you."

His words. . . Where spoken deep and with more meaning than he usually used. They where darker, he truely meant to kill this goddess if she didn;t give up. And if Mitsuki and Thrush came up he would say what he intended.

"Shes mine, you two rest."

Yep, all or nothing he had saved himself from fighting Hades so he could take on the next god, but by himself. . . Would be very difficult.

She laughed in delight. A new toy to put into her little collection? She wanted to see what this white haired boy could do, and so...

"Attack at will, boys~ The white haired boy. Attack at will."

Cheerful, but as she continued to talk, she spoke in a serious, eloquent manner. The four mercenaries dressed in dark purple uniforms would step up in front of the goddess, waiting.
