Red: "If you need a bit of help..." At this, Red flares upward, concentrating a ball of flames into his right hand, "I can assist you. I doubt the teleporter will work without fire, anyway."

"These flames are true fire, and the teleporter doesn't need it please go on ahead."

Origin begins to mumble something and the air around him heats up and cools down randomly. The air seems to become solid and wavers in and out dizzyingly. Origin kept mumbling and soon the entire bottom floor was like that.

"Hurry go before I finish this..."

Red: "Right, if you say so."

With that, he dashes through the portal as the flames pass by him harmlessly. If Origin's teleporter works as well as he says it does, then Red should end up right in the middle of Grassland Ruins City. Of course, Red'll have no idea until Origin comes out after him.

Meanwhile, back at the warehouse, Green is a bit overwhelmed...

Green: "So Schwa, does this mean that if Tuxydon attacks you while we're trying to help the Buster Beetles, we won't be able to help you defeat him? I don't like that, it sounds really dangerous!"

Blue: "Indeed, Green. But I am a bit more curious about what would happen should Tuxydon actually manage to defeat Schwa... From the looks of things, it does not sound like Schwa would be just another psi warrior for Tuxydon to add to a collection."

"Green, it is true that if Tuxydon challenges me in the etheral dimmension, you won't be able to help me. But in a battle where my physical body doesn't hinder me, I am truly undefeatable. My spirit is enfused with the Legend Assets, Green. That means my spirit will never die. Pure souls never die, remember that. If he defeats me, I will become a part of the infinite reaches of the Etheral Dimmension, where I can send my energies into the pure when needed. And after a thousand years, I may even become a Zraku, a big honor. What my point is, Green, is that psi warriors are not afraid of physical death. For us, death can make us something stronger. You don't have to worry about me. But I won't lose anyway, so it's fine."

Schwa doesn't seem afraid about anything right now. He emits a peace beyond comprhension.

Origin finishes his chant and steps into the portal, as soon as he is through the entire bottom floor is turned into a massive fire. The teleporter sent them right outside the city, but they were close enough to see the ruins. The teleported seemed to just open a gate that was easy to step out of and nothing else happened. Origin was ontop of a hill ready to start an uprising.

A brilliant orange fire emits from Red's body. He looks almost happy to fight.

Red: "Guy, I was born to do stuff like this!"

But of course, there's still a touch of doubt in his eyes as he speaks again...

"But... Is there anything I should watch out for as I'm burning stuff?"

In the warehouse, Yiusi is unusually quiet. Nobody notices the faraway look in her eyes.

A voice only heard by her speaks to her mind. "Yiusi... I am Tuxydon. I know where you are. I will destroy you all... as my destiny proclaims..."

Yiusi tries to communicate with the mysterious telepathic message. "We Oracles must do as our destinies tell us. It is the only reason we exist. But Schwa is strong. He can't be defeated by you, Tuxydon."
"As an Oracle, I must share my secrets with you, but you may not share them, for you are also an Oracle."
"You're correct, Tuxydon. Now share them."
"The Buster Beetles' wishes are making me physical. In less than 10 minutes, I'll fully exist in the material plane. Like the psi warriors and Schwa, the Buster Beetles are making me ultimately powerful by sending me their wishes. Schwa has the same ability, as do all psi warriors, so the fight we must have will only exist between two people..."
"Yes. You and Schwa. This match is the only one possible for such a clash. However, he is etheral, and you'll be physical."
"Schwa must realize that he must become physical through the power of psi warriors alone, in order to harm me. Oracles always know their destinies, but so far mine doesn't say who the winner of this battle will be. But something troubles me... something Schwa has said in the past. And that is..."
"Evil cannot overcome good. It is the laws of spiritual physics."
"I still must do as my destiny says, no matter who the winner is. Remember, you can't tell Schwa and the others of our conversation. Oracles cannot speak their hidden knowledge to normal ones."

The voice fades from Yiusi's mind. She doesn't seem troubled at all by the dialouge she shared with Tuxydon. She knows perfectly well that an Oracle cannot say what another Oracle said to him or her.

"If you see a giant buster beetle don't kill it, and try not to kill to many... Just stun them for now."

Origin took off into the air and shot a shock wave from his spear at the first tower. The energy from the attack started effecting the ground long before it effected the tower, and Origin was concerned if this place was too unstable.

"It should be about time to get a portal near the town. Red and Origin's first attacks should be enough to startel them away from what is going on here."

Dracoonx4 saw Yiusi, but figured something he shouldn't worry about was going on. He waited for their chance to start the fight.

OOC: Are Red and Origin inside the ruins, or outside?

OOC: Well then...

The shockwave shatters the top of the first tower, alerting the Buster Beetles. Not visible at first, they're in front of Red and Origin in no time flat. Somehow they've got behind them as well.

One of the Beetles speaks.
"Tell us why you attack the city! Do you hunt us down to utterly destroy us? It's true all lifeforms hate our existance, but if we're not in your way, why bother?"

A big figure is also making his way to the scene, though not seen by anyone yet.

"Oh it is much more than that or you would all be gone already. I have enough power to destroy this entire city within a minute."

Origin turns to the nearest buster beetle and lashes out with his spear, but all he does is scratch the surface. Enough power came from the speed of the attack to make anything tremble under it. Origin mildly looks around and prepares to start more chaos. He whispers to Red while looking around,

"Don't kill any of them just stun them or knock them out. It would be a hollow victory if all we did was reunite the buster beetles in death."

As soon as the attack hits the Beetle, the others take hostile action and rip large stones out of the ground. They heave the large pieces of paved road in a flurry. But not 4 seconds have gone by when the voice of something like a Red Dragon stops them in their tracks.

"Enough! Let us negotiate with our visitors. Peace is a key element." Yorra himself stands behind the Beetles. "Visitors, we won't fight you unless necessary. Tell us why you have come to fight us."

Yiusi still has the faraway look in her eyes. She can see everything that happens in the city perfectly well (being an Oracle), and she seems curious at what will happen next.

"It is probably beyond you why we fight, because no one knows the question. If they did they would realise that we could have peace all around the universe couldn't we?"

Origin was just trying to provoke Yorra and the buster beetles to fight. He couldn't fight someone who didn't want to defend themselves. It just wasn't the thing to do when he had power. He just waited and whatched hoping Yorra was either foolish or had put up with it far to long.

While Origin was holding his holy crusade at the hand, Red was having an insane time, his latent pyromania finally expressing itself at the expense of the surrounding city. Launching fireballs left and right, the stones the Beetles throw don't even come close to hitting him as he dashes along the streets, a flaming dynamo of kinetic energy.

Red: "WOOOHOO! BURN! BURN TO THE GROU---" He stops short, pausing to think about his actions... "Oh, I shouldn't be killing people... I hope those guys were ok...?"

Looking back at the wake of destruction he seems to have left, it doesn't look like anyone's been scorched too badly by his assault, and the fires certainly weren't hot enough to melt the shell of a Buster Beetle. He smiles at his ability to preserve life, and continues onward, raining small, controlled explosions everywhere he ran.

Yorra sighs. "Surprising. Out of the two of you it is the Firebird that makes peace. Well, I always heard that man was the most destructive lifeform... Hold on, Mr. Pheonix. I will see if I can stop your partner."

But it's too late. Red has encountered a black sphere of dark energy in the center of the city. Barely visible inside the sphere is a muscular figure in black uniform and surrounded by black ether.

Yorra calls out, his voice raised with worry. "HUMAN! Get away from there, now!"

"Damn..."

Origin muttered under his breath realizing that his very weak plan failed horribly.

"I am not much of a pheonix anymore, but if that is what I think it is. Than that is why I am here."

Origin jumped up and took off after Red intent on attack the sphere. He knew he couldn't defeat the thing very easily, but he was more than willing to try.

Back at the warehouse...

"We should get going soon. I am sure Origin and Red have caused enough desturction to focus all the energy on them."

Dracoonx4 had patiently been waiting and had noticed Yiusi's faraway look, but he thought it wasn't for him to interfere with.

Red: "Wha--?!"

His flaming rampage temporarily put to a stop, Red stares in awe at the black sphere before him, realizing instantly that his decision was a bad one.

"Uh.... Did I really do THAT much damage...?"

Red looks behind him... Yeah. Yeah he did. In this case, the term "carried away" appears to be an understatement. Red's biggest problem always was that he would tend to lose control of himself in situations like this, and there appeared to be no exception this time. As his mood died, so did the destruction around him, the flames he spread he slowly watched die, as he sank to his knees in a fit of remorseful paralysis...

"Did I... do that...?"

He no longer notices the black sphere in front of him, or Origin rushing to clash with it...

APH had been standing quietly for another long period of time. When he hears Dracoonx4, he turns around. "Go where? Sorry, but I lost track of what was going on. I was thinking about something." He looks at Dracoonx4 curiously.

Uknown to anyone, APH has a very dark secret about something that happened during the first Buster Beetle incident.

At the warehouse, Yiusi snaps out of her faraway look and walks over to Dracoon. "Dracoon, what exactly is our next move?"

At the city, the black sphere starts pulsing and emitting an aura of bad feelings. A chuckle can be heard from the form inside. Slowly, the form starts to seperate from the sphere...

The Buster Beetles, except Yorra, gather around the sphere and start chanting things in their native Buster Beetle tounge. Yorra hits the ground, upset.
