| Some turquoise light is seen sinking deeper into the water. It HAS to be Schwa. That's when Snow gets a telepathic message, but it's staticy...
"Sorry about the fire. It won't matter in a while at this rate... See you in the Etheral Dimmension." Still 6 turns for the UMana. |

| "Shut it. There's no way I'm letting anything happen to you now."
With that, And reality breaks him back. Every bone, every muscle, every nerve in his body begins to collapse in on itself. He recieves a prodigious amount of damage, and drops to the ground over the (hopefully still occupied) body of Schwa. Still, with weak and failing thought processes, he's not worried about his deception... After all, Schwa must have figured it out by now. "...Don't... you... EVER... pull... anything... like... that... again..." ...and he slips into unconsciousness. Time passes. An observer, tired of waiting for the fighters to awaken, might approach and study the small shrine. Perhaps such a watching one might even enter the wooden building, and marvel at the intricate carvings on the walls and ceilings. If the observer was lucky enough, the elevator downwards might be discovered by accident, leading the curious one to a new life, away from the hatred of the surface world. But alas, the impatient observer has no interest in the shrine. Conceivably he's already been inside, perchance even to the subterranean paradise below. Indeed to one of the underworld this man is unmistakenly one who has turned from the light at the end of the tunnel, preferring to wander back into the labyrinth and seek the darkness on the other side of darkness. Yet this man is in no way evil. Some time ago the two helpless bodies before him turned him from his hopeless search, reversed his step so as to bring him back to reality and its comforts. Though he fought them every step of the way, and they knew not the true significance of their quest, he has come to realize his thankfulness towards these two. The Psi Warrior he has always known would become the very essence of truth, the penultimate force of Good. The shapeshifter with no reason to his immortality but those he shares his millions of lives with. These two have many destinies together. It is not their fate to die on this least forsaken of seasides. The lich king smiles, though you couldn't tell, and winks at the narrator. The effect is unnerving- One blue eyelight flickers out for a moment, and a strange warmth is felt by those nearby. Raising a hand, he begins to channel the energy of life through himself, asking of the grass, the air, the mountains, and the waves, bringing a mass of blue-white power to bear in his hand. And then... he disappears, as does the sphere of light. But Corona and Schwa have both been fully invigorated. Blue sparks fly across both of their near-corpses, and they're flung bodily in opposite directions. Corona lands lightly on four wolf feet, then stands back up as a human. He holds his forehead with one hand, obviously confused as to what just happened. Nevertheless, he watches to see how Schwa, now a good fifty feet away, has fared with what he knows must have been a forceful awakening... |

| Though awake, Schwa doesn't get up. He just lies there with his eyes open.
"Spear... Might be a weakness... Spear, leading to anger..." Silence. "I need to work on that. ...Don't know where I am... Not the Etheral Dimension... He must've saved my life... in that case, I owe him... ...owe Snow a favor..." He still doesn't know Corona's identity. He hasn't looked. "I wonder... if I could get Emily to fight while I rest... ...yes, I'll do that..." "Emily, please assist." "Ha, what kind of Tech was that? Oh, you're exhausted... I see. I'm coming, then." Emily hasn't arrived yet, but will soon... |

| Corona wonders at that. The blast of light restored him to full energy, why not Schwa? And why is he talking out loud, and also too lazy to look up and see who I am? And who in blazes is Emily? Well, might as well make the most of the situation. He transforms back into 'Snow', complete with the lance and the magical darkness to shroud the face.
"Nah, it's okay. I've saved plenty of lives, you don't need to be more noble than they were. And may I ask, who is Emily?" Secretly, he's charging up blue energy in the tip of his spear. Actually he isn't very secretive about it, but he doesn't need to be, since Schwa isn't looking. He's getting ready because he's expecting either Schwa getting his second wind or this mysterious Emily showing up. Speaking of which, Emily doesn't seem to be a name that gives the impression of danger... All the more reason to be careful. It's the ones that aren't deadly you have to worry about. |

| Emily appears in a blue, swirling light, almost suddenly. She is in the form of a blue, firey fox with silver, glossy eyes of kindness. She looks like a creature made of Ether, and for a good reason-- she is just that.
"Alright... I'm here. Dang, Schwa... You look plum tired. Who's this?" No answer. Though healed, Schwa is so exhausted from the teleportation that he fainted. Emily studies 'Snow' with her glossy eyes... "Ah, Corona. Yes, Schwa's told me a lot about you... If I may share my opinion, you don't need to be proving that you're stronger than Schwa. It's apparent that you are... but then again, Schwa doesn't specialize in power; it's his tactics that allow him the victory. He doesn't meet many who can match power AND tactics with him on the same bout." Her voice is telepathic. There is a pause. "My name's Emily. I'm a Zraku, a 1,000 year old Psi Warrior soul set to guard the life of one live Psi Warrior. He requests that I fight in his place, with your permission... besides, I'd be more of your equal than he would be, by far." OOC: Warning. If you accept her proposal, prepare for a whuppin' unless you aren't afraid to hold NOTHING back. Emily is my special "super-power" character only used in special matches. I figured Corona *could* fit that category, so hey... |

(ooc: Well, okay. Just so you know, I have a plan.  )
Corona responds with his own telepathy... It's easier to maintain if a sudden shapechange is needed, and he's reasonably certain it's expected of him. "Proving?... No, I wanted Schwa to think that, at first. Mostly I was trying to get a good spar out of it, and see how he'd fared in Delaga Ex. Dimensional travel changes people... I needed to be sure I still knew Schwa. But I'm not as powerful as you think... I can only use my abilities at the expense of my life energy. It's mere coincidence that my lance triggered his memories... if it hadn't, he could have defeated me, there and then. Nice meeting you, Emily. Sure, I'll have a go at fighting you... Don't expect an easy victory." Corona stops charging energy, then begins to spin his spear at very high speed in unusual ellipses. It leaves a slowly-fading trail of blue embers where it goes, forming patterns of first an eight-petalled flower, then a Sun complete with sunbeams, then an exact replica of the mountains behind him... It's unclear why he's doing this... |

| "Oh, never. Easy victory would be against things like Legions, The Heartless, the Cult of the Damned, Giygas, etcetera."
As Corona begins his game, Emily focuses for a moment, and then lets loose her Breath Weapon attack; HyperEther. It's pure-white, highly-compressed ether that sweeps over the area, as Emily sweeps it from her right to her left. Connecting with it will burn with above-average Holy/Psychic damage, and a brunt-collision will likely throw the target. Nice to start out slow and easy... |

| "Legions, eh? I've fought a few in my time..."
As Corona swings the lance around him, his physical composition begins to change. Every tiny piece of his body is gradually changed from matter to energy, a very specific kind of energy... Reformed shapeshifters have a type of morphic memory. Everything they're exposed to leaves an imprint on their souls and bodies. Through strict discipline, they can learn to adapt to any form they've experienced. What happens now is that right before the ether washes over him, the entirety of himself and his lance have been transformed into nearly identical ether, still in the same shape. Who knows if that sort of defense will work... Either way, he switches back right after the attack, and charges another round of energy into his still-whirling spear. |

| This causes Emily to stop in mid-attack and try another tactic, possibly changing Corona's last move's outcome.
Before he begings to change back, Emily's body flares wildly as she emits an aura that draws in the etheral Corona. She tries to draw him in close enough, then with a panther-leap, plow through him, assimilating part of his life-force before he can transform back. (Since healing is illegal, the HP will be converted into a turn of charged energy.) If Corona transforms back first, though, he'll stop being drawn in, and Emily will execute a panther-leap anyway-- diamond-like, ether-coated claws outstretched for a high-powered tackle, kick off and land back in her origional position. The former attack does above-average damage and knocks the wind out of the target, the latter attack does a little more damage, Holy/Physical rather than (undefined). |

| Corona allows himself to be drawn in, waiting until the last possible instant before suddenly morphing into a swarm of bees. Emily passes right through the cloud the first time, because each bee flies out of the way on its own, but on the jump backwards Corona is back in human form whirling several feet of sharpened, multidimensional gemstone just waiting to take a slice out of an ethereal fox.
"Clever... Wasn't expecting that." |

| OOC: A little confused as to whether or not you attacked me this turn or not. If editing is necessary, PM.
Emily plows through the bees and lands behind Corona, quickly turning around as to not expose herself to easy attacks. The first thing she notices, of course, is Corona's weapon. "Nice what you've got there... Just what do you intend to do with it?" In case Corona tries attacking, Emily redies her passive ability Blink, and her stance changes... |

"This thing? Nah, there's no way this will be sufficient for a battle with you. It's just here to facilitate shapeshifting, oh, and, almost forgot, it's also here for THIS." Corona hurls the spear high into the air, the momentum of the spin sending it faster than the speed of sound. Before the sonic boom has time to happen, though, Corona jumps after it, his body bursting into flame, arms extanding into wings, feet to talons, skin to flaming feathers... He's flying as a Phoenix straight into the beginnings of an enormous wave of wind. He disappears for an instant as the entire area turns a soft pink... and for almost three seconds, nothing happens. Then the explosion comes. A gigantic shockwave of burning wind washes over the arena, seemingly uncontrolled... until one realizes that it's completely missing both Schwa and the shrine, and none of the grass is being burned- The entirety of the attack is focused on Emily and the air nearby... Corona reforms out of the air, dropping down lightly on the green grass waving peacefully to its friends, the clouds. The spear is still going up, and is soon lost to sight. Probably a few minutes before it hits the ground again, and for now Corona is just going to wait and see how his opponent deals with this Schwa-inspired attack. |

| OOC: Hey, you make a point... Emily would be hard to do, but I could give it a shot I suppose...
As the wind rushes over Emily, her body begins to waver like flames being blown out by wind... and suddenly, also just like fire, she IS blown out. Blink, her activated passive ability, has been activated! Not without damage, as the wind had to sting her a little to take full effect, but it's in play nonetheless... It's 0.00001 seconds later when Emily reappears behind Corona, having jumped there by leaping from point to point in the Etheral Dimension... or actually, FOUR Emilys. In truth, three of them are illusions and will go out as soon as attacked, and if the real deal is hit it spells instant death for all the illusions. However, all of them share a massive amount of Emily's energy signature, and as such, each and every unit can use Techs. This means Emily now has the power to pull off FOUR Techs per turn, one with each copy, so long as they remain on the field. And two of them don't waste any time. "Mana Crash!" ((echo effects) x2) Instantly, rust-colored ether flares up all around Corona, and after one second it flares HUGELY, coating a portion of the area. It was basically the same attack used in succession. The effect of this ether causes stored mana to conflagarate, which will cost Corona a lot of mana and HP equal to the mana lost if it hits perfectly. It also feels like being crushed from the inside when it hits a target. The other two Emilys begin charging energy. Emily's voice comes from one of them, but it's impossible to say which one... "Uh-oh, where did she go? Is she to your left? To your right? Descisions, many descisions..." |

| "Hmm, did Schwa tell you about Adric? He tought me some things..."
Corona raises one hand above his head, and immediately siphons out every tiny bit of his mana into a black bubble high in the sky, seeming to block out the sun. The attack strikes... and doesn't suck any mana, or drain any health, due to a complete lack of any mana to target. "Well done. Were it not for a bit of combat precognition, I wouldn't have been able to counter that. Now... How about we do some evening of the odds? Four on four?" He then leaps high into the air, his body collapsing into an amorphous blob at the very top of his jump. As it falls, it separates into four pieces, each one expanding outwards into something different. The first takes the form of a mechanical suit of medieval-era full plate armor wielding a substantial, sharp, and shiny silver sword, aiming a falling thrust at the first of the ethereal foxes. The second is in the shape of a tall man with a blue mask over his face, protected by a suit of flexible green metal armor, and wielding a lance of absurd proportions aimed directly towards the second of the Zraku. The third takes the guise of a teenage boy clothed in odd, age-old leather, a red cap almost covering his short blond hair. He carries a black ebony longbow, with which he takes aim and fires a bright blue arrow at the third "Emily." And finally, the fourth blob morphs into a huge space-age missile, tracking down the last target. Corona's voice comes from all three of his humanoid morphs... "All right then. Which one is me?" |
