| OOC: Alright, guys! Time for a slightly special fight! This fight will use Normal rules, EXCEPT for that you're up against two Psi Warriors at the same time! That means either you use two characters of your own, or, for a much, MUCH more interesting battle, two different users each using one character against mine! If you have a friend you wanna double-team with, PM him and both o' ya HAVE AT ME. The only rules for that fight is no skipping my turn unless a second post does not contain an attack (i.e. plot or dialouge purposes only and stuff). Stay on your guard, guys-- they're no Team Gemini, but these two make quite a pair and QUITE a challenge. Good luck-- hold nothing back!
"Schwaaaaaaa!!" "Hoooo-boy..." Once again, the man coated in the famous sky-blue etheral streak that strikes fear in the hearts of Evil knows he will not get the chance to fight demons solo today. How does he know this? It's quite simple, really-- someone who's seen that red etheral streak slide alongside him so casually SO many times before would already know the difference between peace and quiet as opposed to "trapped by the searing passion", as a Psi Warrior Bard put it recently. The girl coated in this red ether happens to be in love with this man. It is not unnatural, for both Psi Warriors are at the age which they start to notice characteristics in the opposite gender a little more clearly... and this kind of attraction is not only beyond the Assets' control, but in a way actually supported by them. Love strengthens the soul more than even Faith, and THAT'S saying a lot. Sadly, though, the man-- a 21-year-old "prince" named Schwa, Psi Warrior and embodyment of Good and the whole shpiel-- fails to return the level of admiration this girl is captivated by for him. It may be better for the both of them, for they are still friends... though friends viewing each-other from opposite realities. And it is at this point that Schwa is ONLY concerned with a single fact: The girl, Allaura, is to be joining her on his next mission. This happens a lot, thanks to Sensae's insightful judgement. But Schwa isn't always in agreement with him. "Ya wanna fight alongside me today? Alright, but you're EARNING the privelage this time! Keep up or die!" And Schwa triples his flight speed. "H-hey! Schwa, you're such a die-hard competitor! Alright, you asked for it!!" And when Schwa notices that she actually IS able to keep up, he tenses. The chase is on, just as the legacy of all beings would have it-- the solitary man and the pursuing girl! Although at a time like this, Schwa would NEVER admit that he's actually having fun. He starts zigzagging. Allaura is INTO IT, though, and follows his every move to every length and degree. "Shit, stay away from me!" She picks up on a key factor. "Watch where you're zigzagging! Gah, Schwa, WATCH OUT!" "Wha? AAH-- OOF..." Allaura gasps as she streaks lower to find out what happened to her comrade. Fate now brings them both to a forest city, where the buildings and roads consist of wooden structures hanging over 50 feet off the ground thanks to the huge trees. Schwa not only slammed right into one of those trees, breaking the top off, but this caused him to crash through the roof of the building below, which happened to be a Hydro-Elven tavern. As Allaura lands her Psi Disc on a higher-up platform in the city and disintegrates it, she gets a good view of Schwa dashing out of the tavern with many strong-looking fighters hot on his tail. "Gaaaah, no no no no NO, stay BACK, I say! I'll fix your roof, but I need to save my vitality! ALLAURAAAAAA!!" Schwa looks around frantically as he runs from his new band of pursuers, trying to locate Allaura both with his blindfolded eyes and his Psi senses. When he finds her, he just about loses his temper. "The HELL you laughin' for, Allaura!? Get DOWN here and HELP me!" "Hoo hoo HOOOO ha ha hah! Th-that was-- AAAHHHHH-ha HAH! Get 'im, guys! ...Oh, Schwa... Whoops! Sorry! Here I come to help! (Assets, forgive me...)" The energetic female Psi Warrior gracefully leaps off the platform like a professional diver, her long, brown hair waving behind her, and after two consecutive flips she lands, crouching, on the lower platform juuuuust ahead of Schwa and the fighters, heading them off. It would've been the most stylish victory Schwa's ever seen her have, if it was even a victory in the first place... which is wasn't, because right on cue, another band of warriors, these ones looking like Hydro-Elven town guards, are instantly behind Allaura. With the guards behind her and the warriors behind Schwa, they are very quickly sandwiched-- and the wooden walkway they stand upon that makes up the town's roads is not more than 10 feet wide, plus there's a deep marsh 68 feet below, so there really is no escape for the two Psi Warriors, unless they want to use a Psi Disc... "Allaura," Schwa whispers, "Get a Psi Disc ready and we can bail. ...Allaura?" "Ssh. My Psi Energy is going nuts. ...We are about to enter combat, and it won't necessarily be hostile." "You mean a spar? Here, in these circumstances!?" "Likely." "With who?" "Probably not someone from either of these crowds. Though whatever's gonna happen better happen soon or these guys'll get bored of staring us down first." Schwa grinds his teeth. "Assets be with us," he whispers through them. OOC: Time to make your entry. Enjoy, my worthy opponents! |

| Garro: "They're close."
Kalar: "Part of your little plan? You just got back from Crystal Psipalace..." Garro: "If we're going to go through with this whole "revival" plan, then I need to know more about Psi Warrior faith. That bonehead Schwa is always looking to randomly spar with people, it's like he wants to shove Ether down the throats of every unsuspecting warrior he comes across." Kalar: "You know, he might not take that as an insult..." Another case of the troublesome duo "just happening" to be in the right place at the right time showed Kalar and Garro watching the entire exchange from high above Schwa and Allaura, sitting upon the boughs of a pair of tall trees. Garro: "I'm beginning to learn, yes..." Kalar: "They're in trouble. Time to be stylish?" Garro: "Do what you want..." Kalar: "Awesome." Holding his scythe behind his back, Kalar braced his feet on his tree-branch seat and sprang outward, falling head-first towards the walkway that Schwa and Allaura stood cornered on. Garro sighed and followed suit, drawing his guns as he adjusted his trajectory to that of an opposing angle to Kalar's. The two warriors landed, a prime example of deus ex machina, between Allaura and her group of foes, and Schwa and his. With Kalar next to Allaura and Garro next to Schwa, the two of them stared down their angry foes with a cool eye and an even cooler drawn-weapons pose. Kalar: "Are you sure you want to take another step forward?" Garro: "You don't seem to know who you're dealing with..." Their flashy one-liners out of the way, the two groups of warriors responded angrily, and amidst shouts of "He destroyed our tavern!" and "We didn't ask for our town to be randomly terrorized!", Kalar and Garro just sweatdropped and stepped things up a notch. Garro flared with holy light, his coat billowing out beneath him as his pistols shone with a silver glint. Even the scraggle of facial hair that lined his chin and cheeks seemed a little bit glossier than usual, as the white winds that surrounded him blew a cool breeze aroudn the four warriors, strengthening their resolve and making them seem all the more resolute to take care of any trouble that was about to happen. Kalar's approach, on the other hand, was significantly more terrifying, as the shadows from Garro's holy light swirled on the floor of the platform around him, casting the silhouette of a dark, undefinable figure beneath his feet. Its eyes glowed a deep yellow color, like headlights that shone, and yet did not shine at all. He waved his scythe, and it glinted as it passed the eyes of each and every warrior, showing that its blade was so thin, so fine, that it was like there was no blade at all. Indeed, it seemed largely two-dimensional in nature, and yet the skill with which he swung gave way to the allusion of a grandoise being, one who took his every battle seriously, regardless of the weapons or tools he had at hand. To him, the battle was work, be it work of labor or work of art. Needless to say, at this display the warriors were significantly awed. They grinned and continued to look totally awesome.

| Allaura smiles a little at the newcomers' battle poses, and Schwa is simply speechless as his jaw drops. Then he remembers just who these guys are, and all Hell breaks loose within his little head...
"Ohhhhhhh NO you don't..." Instantly his hand is tightly gripped around Garro's shoulder as he yanks him backwards. Allaura gasps, and Schwa's action may get Kalar to react as well. "YOU! The guy who makes Darkness from Light! GARRO! You and I have a score to settle!" Allaura covers her face. "Schwa..." "Allaura, THIS is the 'non-hostile battle' you detected? What... the Hell... GIVES!?" "Schwa," she says, raising her voice a little. Schwa drops Garro. "Boy, am I glad they picked us while we were healthy, 'cause I'm about to--" "SCHWA!" She's finally at the point of yelling, and it is at this same instant that the warriors on one side and the guards on the other decide to "Initiate Brouhaha". Each group dives onto the four vastly diverse fighters, ready to spill some blood. Schwa vanishes in the crowd, but Allaura leaps up, flaring with red ether. "Defend yourselves, guys!" she calls. From a hovering position above the fray, she lets loose with a huge rain of etheral energy bolts upon her enemies. Schwa should be immune to these attacks, and she mentally prepared them not to hurt Garro or Kalar either. Schwa bursts out of the crowd. "Secret Bomber!" (echo effects) His attack scatters energy bombs in all directions, each landing in the crowd and erupting into an energy geyser. Allaura and Schwa's combined efforts knock many of the offenders off the walkway and to a 68-foot drop to the depths of a marshy demise. Plenty targets remain on the walkway for Garro and Kalar as well, in case they don't feel like appearing inferior. The Hydro-elves are all equipped with short halberds and water magic, and the warriors are equipped with anything imaginable... but, traditionally, being the plot-tool NPCs they are, they don't take much punishment.  |

| There's a few quick flashes of light and scratches of air, and the warriors in front of Kalar are instantly knocked unconscious, with little hope of getting up any tie within the next few hours. Similarly, Garro dazzles his crowd with a bright blast of light, and every single one of the plotful peons are afflicted with a sleep status, sinking to their knees and falling forward.
Kalar: "Aw, not a single death. I guess they were stronger than we thought, eh?" Garro: "It's your bloodlust, not mine. I suggest we wait until the two of them are done..." Kalar's eyes flashed red as he watched his foes conduct their techniques, and Garro scribbled a few notes into a small pocket notebook upon staring out into the sky for a few seconds, watching the ether flare up from Allaura's rain. He nodded to Kalar, and they waited. "Young Prince, I believe you mentioned a score to settle?" |

| The two duos get done with their foes at about the same time. Allaura lands swiftly behind Schwa, and Schwa can't help but smirk. Allaura notices.
"What's so funny, mushroom man?" "Nothing much... Just, if there's one thing that impresses me, it's graceful combat. ...And do NOT call me that." He glances at Kalar and Garro next, remembering... "Especially... in front of... THIS guy." He starts toward them, mostly Garro, but Allaura grips his shoulder with one fluid movement and holds him back. "Schwa, use some common sense today, would ya?" "Let go of me, you ignorant dame! Garro's the guy that used Holy magic for Evil purposes that one time! Demons must DIE." Allaura's having a tough time holding on now. "I have a feeling you'll correct yourself later on if we allow you to." Schwa breaks free. "Garro, HAVE AT YOUUUUUU!!" He leaps forward and tries bringing a left, ether-coated hook from the air into Garro's head. If this hits, he'll kick off him, backflip and land 7 feet away in a crouch stance. This attack could probably be effortlessly intercepted by Kalar, though. Allaura slaps her face. "Here we go... Garro, Kalar, seriously, my sincere aplogies in advance..." She lowers her voice so they can hear her but not Schwa. "He's a bit of a black-and-white thinker, kinda stubborn..." UMana l........... 1/12 |

| The barrel of one of Garro's guns presses into Schwa's forehead, as he raises his hand and catches Schwa's fist. The ether on Schwa's hands burns Garro's glove to a dull grey char, but little more. It's clear that Garro can stand against a lot more than generic ether.
Garro: "Prince Schwa, don't ever..." He pulls the hammer back on his pistol, and it begins to glow brightly, the mechanism inside of it setting off a reaction in the gun's stock that filled it with Holy power. "...call me a demon again." He twists Schwa's arm downward, and pulls the pistol away from Schwa's face, backing off a few steps as he does. The twist is hardly excessive, but it's clear that he has no intention whatsoever of letting Schwa just hit him. Even Garro's stubbly beard seemed to bristle at Schwa's challenge, moreso at his allegation. "If you have a score with me, then you might as well settle it now. Tell me, what's your problem with what I do?" |

| Oops. Schwa is awestruck. Well, that's what happens when you play the Tiger and not the Dragon...
"Allaura?" "Hey, you're the one who wanted to shove ether down his throat, not me." "What!?" He breaks free of Garro's hold, injuring himself as he does. "Ow ow ow... Alright, Allaura, what was THAT?" "Turn around. He just asked you a question." "Right..." Schwa turns around to face Garro. "Quite simple, Garro. Holy energy is the essence of Good, not Evil. Therefore, by using it for Evil, you're desecrating the Assets." "And," Allaura throws in with a smile that she can't help, "doing that creates a paradox, which has a 15% chance to become a Plot Hole, which in turn has a 35% chance to destroy the Universe." Schwa whips around. "What!?" "Sorry, just something I read from somewhere once." Schwa sighs and turns back around. "Yeah, I'll settle our score, all right. I'll settle YOU too, you cultist! Emotional Rockets!" (echo effects) Schwa makes three hand motions, and rainbow-colored ether flickers about as three familiar, colored rockets of ether appear by Schwa's shoulder. "Taste the wrath of the Assets!" Schwa thrusts a hand out, and the red rocket takes off right at Garro, homing in much like a guided missile. Allaura starts forward. "Well, there's no stopping him now, guys, unless you defeat him... You don't mind if I help him, do you? Or I could sit out... Really he deserves what's coming to him..." She eyes Kalar. "You don't look to bad of a fighter with that scythe of yours, though. Why not help your ally?" |

| Garro calmly pointed his gun away from Schwa's head and at the red rocket, firing a holy blast straight at it that travelled like a beam into the rocket's head, detonating it and causing Garro to give an unsurprised raise of the eyebrow. He lowered his pistol, and the even tone of his voice had yet to change.
Garro: "That's not going to work on me, Schwa. One, I've got very good control over my beliefs and emotions..." He cocked his pistol a second and third time, and raised it to fire a pair of blasts at the other two rockets that floated above Schwa's head, blowing them away without a thought. "And two, I'm a pretty good shot, if I do say so myself. And to think, it's with holy power, too. But I guess defending myself against a force of Good that feels the need to fire the first shot is an Evil act. According to your faith, anyway..." He takes out a pen and scribbles another line of notes in his scratchpad, nodding to Kalar. Kalar leaned on his scythe, and shot a glance at Allaura. Kalar: "I think he's got this. You know, you and I could get to talking, if you like. I'm Kalar. That there's Garro. I'm guessing Schwa told you a good bit about him from the wrong side of things... He's a good guy when you get to know him. Likes animals a lot. Cows, horses, owls... Stuff like that. I never figured out why for the longest time." |

| Allaura nods in approval. "Yes, I know both your names... Yours by mind-reading, Kalar, and Garro I know a *little* bit about because I looked at a slightly old Profile sheet for out old Tournament that Schwa judged. It didn't give much details, though, and I tried to stay out of affairs that weren't my own, so..."
"Fine. You won't help, Allaura? I'll take 'em both on myself." "That's suicide, Schwa. Kalar hasn't even bloody attacked you yet. Be sensible, for the love of God." "Eh? Hey, you're right. 'Sides, my target is this half-mormon half-zealot 100% Rabid Bishop, not Mister Scythe." Allaura leaps off the walkway, hovers up in a double-jump maneuver, and lands on a building roof nearby. "You'll learn, Schwa..." Schwa brings his palms together and opens them again, flaring with ether. "Alright, no Techs... just skill on skill. Bring it, Priestie!" Schwa thrusts both hands forwards, and a barrage of etheral energy bolts showers Garro for 7 seconds, each hit dealing low Holy/Psychic damage, but it IS a flurry, so... Schwa *thinks* it'll do extra damage to him because Schwa's convinced that Garro is Evil, but he probably isn't, therefore it probably won't... Allaura just watches for now, but secretly she wishes to see Kalar's battle skill too. She won't initiate the challenge, though. She's not like Schwa. UMana lll......... 3/12 |

| Garro: "Grr..."
Unfortunately, it's clear that Schwa hasn't learned of the concept of friendly fire, as Garro throws his coat around himself, scribbling furiously for a few seconds. Garro grimaces within the brown folds, taking the blasts with scorching burn marks on his coat from the ethereal explosions. He whips out a pistol, and it drags behind him as he bum-rushes Schwa, leaving an afterimage right before closing into melee with him, and appearing again in front of him in a crouching position, his gun cocked and glowing. "I told you..." He grabs Schwa by the midsection of his robes, hurling him upward with an unprecedented level of strength. He points the gun upward at Schwa, and there's a quick energy bulge... "I'm only defending myself!" The gun fires a large, charged blast of Holy energy, designed not to hurt Schwa (he'd obviously be resistant against Holy power), but knock him higher in the air. It's clear he's planning some kind of sophisticated counterattack. A gossamer pair of angel wings erupts from Garro's back, as he crouches on the ground again, preparing himself for launch. There's a flurry of white feathers that dissipate into nothingness in the air. Garro blessed his pistols a second time... Kalar: "Mind reading? A touch invasive, I'd say. Tell you what: Let's make a standing bet. If you can't figure out why we're here, I'm gonna help Garro take out your buddy Schwa, there. And trust me, I'm a lot less gentle than he is. It's the least I can do, considering I just got mind-probed by some girl I just met. For all you know, you might have just signed your boyfriend's life away." Garro's eyes widen as he hears Kalar's challenge, and his concentration is broken for just a second... |

| OOC: Two weeks ain't keeping me away! Have at you!!
Schwa tries dodging to the right in a sleek sidestep. It doesn't exactly work all the way. But right before Garro fires, he halfway slips out of his grasp. The Holy shot, which was meant to knock him straight up, sends him at a 45 degree angle backwards. "Is that ALL? Ha! Rolling Helix!" (echo effects) From the air, he attacks the reluctant priest. He holds his two palms out, DBZ style, and a beam made of a helix-shaped double-chain of white energy spheres sweeps outward towards Garro, minus several feet. It should hit the ground 5 feet from where Garro stands, but because of Schwa's backwards flight path it should quickly sweep forward for 20 feet. The beam itself is not powerful in terms of damage, but each white sphere in the chain is like a bubble, and will burst with a force-wave when connecting with a target, likely sending targets flying or airborne. Allaura's eyes widen from under her blindfold. "Oh! Hey, my apologies for that. Most people don't get offended. But I doubt that even you could kill Schwa-- we're Psi Warriors, after all. Considering the way the fight's going I'd say he could take you out easier than Garro over there. If you want to join the games, be my guest. I... might have no choice but to help him, though... We'll see what Sensae says, if anything." Far away, Sensae smiles. Not so far away, Schwa is about to finish flying (or falling, rather) thanks to some trees pertruding from the marshy depths. Garro still has time, if he can handle Rolling Helix. |

| OOC: Good.
Kalar closed his eyes and shook his head. Kalar: "Now now, that's all well and good, but you're missing the point. I'm gonna kill Schwa if you don't wanna play my little game. You seem to have ignored that fact and taken it as opinion. I've killed people before, it's pretty easy. Scythe goes in, guts come out. And you're forgetting about both me and Garro taking him on. Schwa's strong, I got that one, but you can't just throw caution into the wind in regards to the two of us. Besides, we're not even here to kill him. That's just my perogative." Garro is hit directly by the beam and thrown upwards but its explosive force, tumbling over in the air and landing roughly on the wooden overpass that the four were standing on. He pushes himself upward, and holds his notebook in his hands... The burn temperature, the cast time... The energy signature that lingered and dissipated... It all opened up to somewhere else. The downside was that in order to find out, Garro needed to take more of a beating. He got to his feet, and straightened his slumping posture. He cast a glance at Kalar, which turned into a quick shake of his head. No... not now... Kalar just shrugged it off and continued to brag. Kalar: "Look at that! He took the shot. Can Schwa really defeat both of us, if he can't even harm my buddy over there?" Garro just sighed, gritted his teeth, and promptly leapt off the platform, diving down into the trees below. The angel wings slowed his fall, until eventually he was hovering in the air, his guns out and his eyes scanning for where Schwa had fallen. Kalar stepped underneath the shade of an overhanging branch, and began to chuckle slightly. |
