| OoC: Zerodius, this'll be set in your universe and you'll be the dungeon master and primary plot driver for parts, but there is a few things to get off the ground...
If you read Requiem of the Phoenix, things will go a little easier to understand Luke and Dracoon. I'll do a quick break down of Luke at the end of this post. I do suggest you read my last post in Requiem of the Phoenix, just to get an idea of what happened. Maya: "I said get away from me!" Maya pushed Luke away, they must have looked strange in the middle of the street arguing. By passers could never understand how much Luke was holding back. Luke: "Come on! You have to understand that what I did was the best move I could do!" Luke walked back towards Maya, who had tears running down her cheeks. She hated the person in front of her and everything about him. She just couldn't get over what he did. Maya: "You abandoned me! You said you'd protect me where ever we went and then you pushed me ahead and disappeared!!" Maya was young, she didn't look a day over seventeen. Luke's exact age wasn't apparent, his long brown hair swayed in the wind and the chains on his clothes made awkwardly loud noises. He looked like a rock star. Luke: "I didn't have a choice! I had to stay to fight against the heartless!" Maya: "And look how that turned out!" Maya was now sobbing, but managing to stay backed away from Luke. In her mind she knew Luke cared about her, because he had the ability to change her perception and make her love him again, but he didn't. Luke acted like a rock star, not a care in the world, even though with a single whim he could break fate. Luke: "They're alive! They all are ok, I know it... somehow..." Maya: "How would you know!? You just left them!" Maya had backed into a wall, she hated this situation. No where to run, no way to avoid this confrontation. Suddenly Maya hugged Luke and started crying against him. Maya: "I met you counter part once before... I met Lexuk..." Luke: "...and?" Maya: "He told me that he couldn't find the threads of fate that held me to this world, so he couldn't alter them to make sure I died..." Luke laughed, he had protected Maya just like he said he would, Maya just couldn't realize it. Luke: "It's because I gave you a choice... Lexuk has already altered fate in this world to try and kill me. He can't do it directly of course, but I'm still vulnerable against the people he can change... I'm sure they already know I'm here and realize I'm a threat." Maya held onto Luke tightly, she knew that something horrible was going to happen. It was destined to happen and had already started happening. Luke: "Maya... I'm so glad that I found you, together we can stop his plans and then continue to help the others..." OoC: Yeah, shoddy entrance, but you have pretty much everything to work with... First off, Luke and Lexuk share a lot of abilities. Lexuk won't appear directly in the story and is acting like a motivater for everything. They both have the ability to alter reality and change perception through music. Lexuk's ability manifests easier than Luke's and he can make it deep rooted, beyond psychic, beyond the soul, and straight into fate. Lexuk can change fate to force things to happen, but fate isn't absolute of course. Like the end of my story where Dracoon breaks fate on his own, all creatures are capable of breaking fate if determined enough. Lexuk's abilities boil down to altering or creating reality and fate. Luke can destroy fate completely, and destroy the "rules". His normal array of attacks are quite powerful, having full control of the elements in addition to normal sound based attacks. Much like Lexuk, he gains more power when faced with a challenge and has no power cap. He is essentially X + 1, where X equals the opponets power. He is above and beyond the physical realm in most senses while fighting and the more stipulations brought against him, the stronger he tends to be. (In all honesty, I haven't figured out how I'm going to kill Lexuk, who shares the same qualities with Luke, at the end of the saga.  _ |

| OFF: Read the RP. Quite interesting. I hope that this introduction will be OK...
____________________________________________________________________ The screen flashed white as the readings became crazy for a moment... and then, it died down as quickly and suddenly as it had happened... "I want a report! Now!" called the leader. "No reading sir. It seem that this Dimension has been..." the agent stopped. "Wait! We have a reading of sorts..." Then... a single line... a long beep... and then, like a heart, the line begun to distort and rythmic "beeps" filled the air... and soon, the other screens filled themselves with readings... "We are awaiting visual confirmation... yes! Received! Life-form "Star" has prevented Dimensional Breakdown." reported the agent. The leader was relieved... "Well, that was close. Any news on what happened to "Star" and the others?" "No life readings for life-form "Star". It seems it has been destroyed, unfortunately. Most life-forms still in the Dimension... but the very fabric of this Dimension was torn during the explosion. Trails of soul energy have been detected. Some of the other life-forms have been warped to another Dimension..." continued the agent. "Which life-forms?" asked the leader. "We do not know exactely... wait! Well... we still don't know... but one life-form has been confirmed. "Luke", a life-form that can control Fate with sound waves. Detected in a nearby Dimension... uh oh..." the agent seemed... troubled. "Uh oh? Continue the report!" demanded the leader. "The creature has arrived in a critical timeline... a "gray area" with strong Guardian presence." continued the agent. The leader cringed. The Guardians... what a "convenient" warp... "Are there any available agents to deal with this? A Fate-altering mortal... we cannot let the Guardians kidnap it and abuse its powers!" "Well... we have no agents..." the leader cringed again at the announcement. "... BUT... the Dimension it is located is an Exception Rift Gray Area..." The leader stopped cringing. An Exception Rift Gray Area. This meant that... "Monitor the mortal carefully. Try and make it run into... one of "Her". Monitor Guardian activity closely. Also, send agents to the other Dimension. Clean up any remaining Heartless if any. Gather the lost souls and Dark Power for further studies. Clean up the radiations. Undo the remaining Dimensional Anomalies." ... The different worlds... and the Corridors of Darkness that link all of them. Heartless... mysterious parasites born from the Darkness within the souls of mortals. Sometimes acting as the janitors of Dimensional Anomalies, sometimes as guardians, fighting and destroying Dimension Eaters, sometimes as horrific world-enders, devouring a world's populations and breaking through the fabric of time and space... Few are those, mortal and immortal alike, who dared to experiment with the nature of heartless... even fewer are those who did not pay the ultimate price for such forbidden knowledge. The creators of all Dimensions, mysterious beings whose true shapes remain mysteries, have been studying the heartless for many centuries after the end of the so-called Apocalypse War during which the Chaos Essence was finally shattered. Although Evil is dying... it is dying within mortals only... and the reflections of the creators' flaws keep the dying Flaw alive. Nothing make the dying force seem more alive than war... and more exactely, the war that oppose the Hunters to the Guardians... a civil war among the creators. The power to control Fate... a rare power, even among immortals. In an era where there is no more foe and where the populations fight merely for the sake of knowing who will have the honor of creating the final utopia, the power to control Fate is invaluable. In the era of paradoxal peace and mirrored, illusional but very real Evil, the worlds collide one last time. ... "We must find a way to contact life-form "Luke"!" they called to Her... Timelines that are not... memories of events that never were... all from a world that never was. The Mother and its Reality still live... The Successor live within the city, searching for "Luke". She hope that she will arrive before him... before the Tortured One... Once the puppet of the embodiement of Evil, the Tortured One was brough back by selfish greed to seek out the power to control Fate. The Successor and the Tortured One are approaching... "Luke" doesn't even know it but already, his second trial has begun... |

| Maya: "So... what do you plan on doing...?"
Luke had taken Maya into a reastraunt and had ordered some drinks for the both of them. Luke: "I need to find Dracoon..." Maya: "Can't you just warp back into our universe?" Luke laughed a little and blushed. Luke: "I uhh... can't..." Maya practically fell over at that news. Maya: "You can alter reality, change fate, but you can't go into other diminsions!?" Luke: "Exactly!" Maya: "Then how does Lexuk diminsion hop!?" Luke: "I have no idea." Luke laughed, smiling. He was confident he'd find a way or something. Luke: "Soo... am I invited to your place tonight?" Maya sighed, Luke was the same guy, she had grown up nearly a year, but he hadn't change a bit. She was safe with him though and his presence was very welcoming. Maya: "Of course, you don't even have any money anyways..." Luke: "Ha, yeah... We can just start performing on the streets though like the good old days!" Maya: "Outlawed." Luke turned away from Maya. He'd never heard of such a rule, but he really wanted to break it. He just had to, it was just begging to be broken. Luke: "You know my answer!" Maya: "It wasn't a question, they'll throw you in prison if you try it." Luke: "I can fight my way out." Maya: "Yeah, but wouldn't laying low be the best option right now?" Luke: "Fine..." Luke hated being worng, but when he was already planning a massive going away concert. This universe would have no idea what hit them. He'd go down as a legend and then he'd vanish! To bad Luke had no idea what was about to happen to him. |

| The outskirts of the city...
A random police officer was minding his business, monitoring the people that went in and out because he was paid to do so. He wondered what he would eat for supper as well... Oh. Another car. Time to get to work... "Welcome to Area M. Papers please." asked the officer in a dull, bored tone. A furry hand handed him over some papers... the officer rose an eyebrow. "Oh. An Experiment..." He read the papers... "DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE" was writen on them. "Huh? I guess you made a mistake. All there is the word "die" writen all ov... gulp..." he found himself unable to continue his sentence, suddenly out of breath... and his eyes widened as his body went limp, his throat wide open by the circular blade that had silently slice through his neck. The car passed by silently. The furry hand grasped a watch of sorts... a digital watch with a secondary screen on it, displaying an arrow... an arrow that pointed toward Luke. The Tortured One made his way toward his target, slowly but surely... ... Near a nearby hotel... "Damn animals! GET OUT!" The humanoid Pichu landed painfully on her behind as she was kicked out of the hotel. She turned back, angered. "HEY! That hotel isn't "pure" humans-only!... and I paid for my room! What gives?!?" "We don't want any trouble!" The female yellow mouse thing crossed her arms. "What? But I'm no trouble!" "And those four weird men, they were your boyfriends? HA! Just go away already." The mouse got up and rolled her eyes. What a bunch of morons. All she wanted was a little bit of innocent fun with some of her old friends and she get into trouble? What do those morons think they were doing? But then, it doesn't really help that her Dark Weapon decided to play a phone prank on the hotel, making strange noises as it did so. That stupid living sword... dunno why she keep it. They just kept telling her that Dark Weapons are an "Ex" being's finest weapon and edge in battle... but well, it would help if she actually was what they were saying she was! "Ex" beings... female humanoid mouse thingies with the ability to bring down an army all by themselves? Please! Sure, there's a legend about such a being from millenias ago... but every person with half a brain knows that such things does not exist. But well, guess it was their civilization's stupid tradition to send anyone that have the description of the famed hero from long ago to an academy and to give them a retarded living sword that can't hurt a fly but will kill your brain dead, very dead with its "sense of humor". HMPH! Morons... all of them... It was at this moment that for some reason, she noticed two strangers. A rock star guy type who she had never seen before and never heard of... and a crazy girl of sorts. The two argued for a bit. Why did she notice those two? What's this weird sense tingling? HMPH! Stupid hormones! It must be the frustration from being kicked from that hotel. She's now imagining things! Stupid stupid stupid... |

| Luke: "Hey, do you hear that?"
Maya paused for a second and tried to listen, but she only heard the normal city noises. Maya: "No..." Luke: "I hear a very low pitch coming from something... it's vibrating slowly, almost like a human, but much slower..." Maya tried to strain her ears, Luke taught her how to pick up on human vibrations, everyone had a slightly different one she learned. Luke's was exceptionally fast, but she could hardly ever hear it unless everything around them was perfectly quiet. She strained her ears more but didn't hear anything. Maya: "I still don't hear anything..." Luke: "Well, it's probably just some super natural cricket or something, don't worry about it." |

| The two weirdos only got more weird, talking about a lot pitch from somewhere. What the heck was that all about?!?
... and why is she paying attention to those two in the first place?!? Do she got a itch toward that human male or something? A shiver went down her spine at the thought. A rock star weirdo... or maybe she got the urge to speak to the girl for some reason? ... all of that confused her and she got no time for this! Well... not true ; she don't have anything to do for the time being but still! Come on... An eye opened itself as the one to which the eye belonged woke up. "What's the rush?" echoed the voice within the female humanoid creature. Oh great. Now IT is awake. Just great... "What's the rush?... and why the gloomy face? Heh! I'll cheer you up!" that slazy, arrogant, and relaxed tone... it drove her crazy!... and she knew perfectly what it meant... and she won't let it! "Oh no! You're not humiliating me twice!" she snapped at the living Dark Weapon before poking its eye with her thumb. The thing screamed in her mind and then, cursing in an unknown language, went back to sleep. She stared at the two weirdos... ... why is she doing this? She will regret it, she can sense it! But oh well... between that and that stupid fleshy thing's pranks... The creature walked until she was in front of the strange duo and then, waved at then. "Hummm... hi?" she felt perfectly stupid... why is she doing this? She have no idea. Stupid instincts... |

| Luke: "And who the hell are you?"
Luke looked down at the mouse creature. Maya: "Luke! Be nice!" Luke: "What?" Maya: "I think it might be a lost child! You should be more caring!" Luke sighed as Maya leaned down. Maya wasn't that new to the world, but she couldn't tell the difference between an adult and a child mouse... thing... Maya: "Are you lost? I can help you." Maya smiled sincerely while Luke just stood there, giving Maya a "why do you bother" look. |

| Two things bothered Delia to no end. The first was that stupid Dark Weapon... and the second was the painful reminder of her immature state.
... and what's wrong with that girl?!? Didn't she ever saw an "Ex" being in the past? Doesn't she know that in this retarded world of hers, they are considered to be able to take care of themselves at an early age, defying all logic? I mean, she IS right... she COULD be a lost child... but well, she's not THAT incompetant. Yes, she failed the "Ex" being tests a little bit... actually, she flunked them entirely... but well, oh well... To heck with it all! Delia crossed her arms. "I'm NOT lost! I'm just..." "Whaaa! I'm... I'm lost! I want my mommy!" to the two strangers, it was Delia's voice... but to Delia herself, it was her Dark Weapon who was awake and playing a prank. Instantly, the eye appeared on the mouse creature's left glove... and then, in an instant, a MASSIVE sword of flesh and metal appeared in her hand! It was like, the size of Luke's height! It was freakin' gigantic! Delia's face turned red as she fulminated. "AZURE WRATH! I'M NOT LOST!... AND I DON'T WANT MY MOMMY!" she boomed at her weapon while it chuckled loudly in its mental voice for everyone to hear. Everyone was staring at Delia now... which caused her to instantly calm down and frown, realizing she had made a fool out of herself. Azure Wrath, her Dark Weapon, laughed even more loudly... and resumed its prank! "Whaaaa! Help me! Help me! I can't find my way home!" Delia rolled her eyes. "If anybody take me seriously now, it will be a miracle. Why don't I just chuck that damned thing in the nearest river?" the "Ex" being thought to herself. "Because you NEED me, idiot! Without me, there wouldn't be humor in your life!" replied mentally the Dark Weapon before resuming on crying and whining loudly mimicking Delia's voice. ... and just to rub it in, a pack of "Ex" being students, who unlike her did not failed the tests so badly that they got kicked out of the academy, passed by, shaking their heads in dismay. Delia's ears dropped to the sides, her eyes narrowing. "What did I do to anger Mother Ex THAT much?" she thought to herself.. (edited by Zerodius on 11-07-06 11:42 AM) |

| Maya: "Uh..."
Luke: "HOLY HELL YOU'RE LOUD!" Luke practically yelled at the top of his voice. He was looking right at the Dark Weapon. Maya: "Uh... Luke?" Luke: "Jesus..." Luke was now glaring at the Dark Weapon, somewhat pissed off. Luke: "I mean, a talking sword is cool and all, but you don't have to try and make me deaf!" Maya: "Luke... she wasn't even that loud..." Luke: "I'm not talking about the voice, I'm talking about the earthquake magnitude of vibrations!" Maya looked at Luke, a little bit worried. Knowing him, this was the kind of thing to make him start something. Quite a few people turned to look at the weapon, the mouse, and Luke. Luke didn't seem to care, he was used to the attention after all, but Maya was a little curious as to why no one was running and screaming away from the massive sword. |

| Delia looked to her Dark Weapon, eyes widened... and a smile came to her face. "Finally... BUSTED!" she thought triumphantly for the Dark Weapon to read.
The living sword, it, was frustrated. Who was this human to think he could make the difference between its voice and its wielder's? Why should its joke fail on that guy? What kind of creature is that? But then, judging from how upset the human now was, it looked like she had to do something... "Err... I'm... sorry..." said Delia, embarassed. Another "Ex" being, this one much taller and actually the size of a human adult, approached Delia, smirking. "What's the matter? Just shut your Dark Weapon and be done with it!" At this moment, Delia sweatdropped as her face turned bright red. She scratched the back of her head, feeling so completely stupid... "Hummm... but... I can't..." "What? You call yourself an "Ex" being and you can't even do a basic thing such as stopping your Dark Weapon from imitating your voice? PAH!" snorted the older "Ex" being, which pushed Delia's embarassment to its limits... as well as her patience. Such non-sense... NON-SENSE all of it! She was sick of it! But what could she do? Nothing. All she could do... was stand there and take the blow. She was being humiliated, again... It was why she dropped out of the academy in the first place... but even away from that horrible place, other more "talented" brats kept bothering her. The fact that this particuliar one seemed pretty mature didn't help. What was wrong with all of them?!? ... The car stopped in an alley. Slowly, he came out of the car and then, checked his surroundings. Perfect location... As he came out of the alley, he checked his watch and continued to walk toward his destination. Once he crossed the street, now being a fair distance from the alley, he took out a remote and pressed a button. The remote-controlled car rushed out of the alley and drove right out of the road and into the river. The vehicle disappeared underwater as people rushed to the edges of the river, some intrigued, others panicked about the scene... Water would destroy the evidence long before the authorities succeed in retrieving the vehicle from its watery grave... and most probably, his mission would be completed as well. Now, to find him... |

| Luke: "Hey, woah. The best instrument tends to have a very forceful personality. While Gjallaguitar might not be able to speak, it certainly tends to vibrate differently depending on it's mood."
Maya: "Yeah, I've noticed that even the earth tends to accept how I move differently depending on the day." Luke looked at Maya. Luke: "Really?" Maya looked at Luke and nodded very slowly. How did he not know that? He might be able to get into someone's head and heart, but he never seemed to understand much about her. Luke: "Wow, that's pretty cool. See, the weirdest instruments tend to be stronger in the end." Luke turned to the Ex-being with a smile. Luke: "Unless you want to challenge that idea...?" It was both a threat and a challenge. Luke wanted to show up an Ex-being, he could already tell how they were bound to fate and could just play a single note to send this one down to its knees, another to cut off its power, and a third to end its life. |

| Delia was in her own little world, trying to weather out the insults coming her way... when the Ex Being bully notced that this inferior being, that human male, was being brave or rather, very stupid and was seemingly challenging her.
The Ex Being, smirking evily, stepped foward. "Who do you think you are, worthless human? I am Frigidia, the top student of this world's Ex Being Academy. I suggest you keep your wits about yourself, inferior being. With one swipe of Durandal, I could swat you like the annoying fly you are. So... keep your place in mind!" the being's tone was arrogant and confident. After all... why should a living super weapon had to fear from a pathetic human weirdo? Durandal, her Dark Weapon, opened its eyes and stared at the guitar. "I detect faint energy readings... faint readings strangely similar to that of a Dark Weapon." The Ex Being's smile became wider. "Oh... looks like there is more to your guitar than making you look like a moron. According to Durandal, it might be possible that it might be using a technology similar to the one that make up our Dark Weapons... which I doubt. You're a genuine human. I don't see how a human would be able to wield a weapon that can affect the space/time continuum or Fate. Truly, you just look like any other weak, common, uninteresting human that inhabit this world to me." The Ex Being then crossed her arms. "But then... you DID challenge me, don't you? I think you should be shown how weak you are. I'll make pancakes out of you... if it is what you want, of course!" Delia blinked a few times and then, noticed that the weirdo was standing up to Frigidia... nah. Must be that heartless bully bullying him. Why can't she leave people alone? Man... if there is such a thing as a Mother Ex... then she must be frowning upon the actions of Frigidia. Strong she might be... but well, she's only an evil, arrogant, self-absorbed bully! ... what is she thinking? What do she care about Ex Beings or the Mother Ex or any other mumbo jumbo like that? Ex Being powers... PAH! Frigidia might be unnaturaly strong... but she is still pretty much a normal girl. Oh well... she will have probably forgotten it all by the end of the day... ... ... during this time... ... The man looked around and looked at his watch. ... he shouldn't be too far now. Most definitely... (edited by Zerodius on 12-26-06 04:21 PM) |

| Maya: "Luke, just don't kill her..."
Maya looked at Luke and sighed. Ex Beings were probably some of the most powerful things in the universe. Some creatures were stronger depending on how they lived, Maya knew quite a few that could battle with Ex Beings on at least an even playing field. Luke though, he was on an entirely different level. With the ability to destroy fate faster than it could create itself or maintain itself, Luke could control everything around him by just nearing the possible outcomes to just one. Him winning. Luke plucked a single string on his guitar and a high pitch screech answered. Maya, Luke, Delias, and Frigidia could suddenly see thousands of tiny threads attached to each of them. The are around Luke though was different, it was clear of such threads, Luke played a second note and Maya's was too. Luke played a third note and a large string attached to Frigidia appeared, and this one was connected directly to Luke's hand. Luke: "Fate has already determined that I will hurt you so you can never fight again. I can already see how I would've done it too, but I'll save you that humiliation." The thread in Luke's hand burned away into nothingness, but nothing happened to Frigidia. Luke: "These are merely strings of fate, your true destiny is in chains. By playing one more note, I can call forth the chains and I could destroy anything that holds you to this world." Luke smiled. Luke: "Now tell me, who's the super weapon?" Everything returned to normal and the threads cleared up. Luke: "You should thank me though, because I just gave you freedom in your life. Use it how you want." Luke looked at Maya who had turned very pale. Luke: "You all right?" Maya took a step towards Luke before collapsing against him. Maya: "I just need a few minutes, I'm not used to that kind of display in power anymore..." |

| Frigidia seemed... upset. Delia, her, was left with eyes widened.
"Whoa... that guy... is some SERIOUS nut..." commented Delia. Frigidia, her, just gritted her teeth... "A Fate Breaker... an ultimate being. So he is one of Them... one of Those who went through Ascension and can control Fate. It is a great power... I had heard of the Mother Ex having such powers... but I didn't knew mortals might have access to such powers. In fact, considering... it is probable that this human might be a Hunter agent. In fact, it's the only theory I see possible. This human MUST be a Hunter... else, how can he be able to control Fate?" Durandal's words echoed in Frigidia's head... ... and well, Frigidia was upset, VERY upset. "Why you... You're just a human! How can you have such powers?!?" "Tsk tsk. Beings bound to Fate are so predictable... but well, what is there to expect from half-baked Ex Beings like you?" a voice out of nowhere... a male voice... Then, a man slowly walked into view. It was a somewhat tall man... yet, he seemed short for some reason. His entire frame was hidden under a trenchcoat, his head hidden by a large hat. His hands were human it seemed... although gloves prevented one from knowing if they truly were the hands of a human. There was an aura around him... an unsettling aura... Luke must have felt it when he came into view... This man was a cacophony, an instrument that sounded "wrong" and thrown all of the threads of Fate into disarray through his very presence. A being who was standing outside of Fate and whose powers were corrupt, corrosive, vile... and so strangely familiar... "Ex Beings... such a joke. Worthless copies of the Mother Ex. The Mother Ex was a magnificient creature... one that was unnaffected by Fate... one that was strong... much unlike those creatures. In an instant, you could snap them into nothingness easily." Frigidia turned to face the man. Who did he think he was?!? "Who do I think I am? Better than you, that's for sure. You think you are close to the level of the Mother Ex? You are an arrogant fool, misusing the powers you were given... like all of the other Ex Beings of this world, I might say. None of you come even remotely close to what the Mother Ex was. You are all weak and unsignificant... but I have no time for you. I am here... for the human." Frigidia's eyes widened. How... how was that being able to read her thoughts?!? She didn't felt a single psychic "pressure" upon her mind... What was wrong with that guy?!? Frigidia wanted to contradict the man but... there was this... this feeling... which caused her to just walk backward a bit and be quiet. Delia stared at the man, wondering... there was something... familiar about him... she has seen him somewhere before... ... the man approached Luke. "There are... people... that wish to meet you. I suggest you follow me, quietly. You WILL comply. I am sure that you will..." at this moment, Luke got a glimpse of the man's eyes... eyes that were strangely similar to that of the Ex Beings and yet... felt so empty and... twisted. There was something wrong with this soul, it was certain. (edited by Zerodius on 12-26-06 05:11 PM) |

| Luke: "Well now..."
Luke seemed to be looking at the man, but his eyes were focused on something else. Luke: "...had you asked nicely, I might've been convinced, but you're threatening me." Luke's eyes finally focused on the man in front of him. Luke: "Tell me where you want to go, why you want me, and who you are. After I know all of that, I may decide to come." Luke held Maya a little closer to him, recognizing the man in front of him as a threat. Fighting here wouldn't work very well, Luke already knew he would retreat at the first sign of danger. He didn't feel like being swept into a long battle. |

| A cold smile... an unseen smile and yet, one that could be sensed. "What I want? You are a powerful being, able to manipulate Fate... and those who brought me back into existence believe that your powers might help all of the Dimensions..."
The man's smile widened. "I know that I have been a bit rash... but well, please excuse my first reaction. I'm not used to meeting people... well, I am... just not in this way. But then, those who brought me back REALLY want to meet you. Believe me, they do... and well, I know that it sound shady... so just come and see for yourself. If they're too weird for you, I'll just bring you back here and then, I and them will leave you alone... if that's okay with you." ... for some reason, Delia had this feeling when she looked at this man... no, this human... it must not follow that weirdo... it just... mustn't... |

| Luke: "That isn't the answer I was looking for. I have no need to trust you, and I'll gain nothing from helping you."
Luke just stared at the man before him. Luke: "You should leave." |

| The strange being crossed his arms. "I am deeply sorry... but you have no choice. You will come with me, whenever you might like it or not. Remember that this is a city, a heavy populated area... and I feel neither regret nor remorse. If you force my hand, I will not hesitate to use my power... and many, many innocents will die. I would also like to remind you that those who brought me back specified that they wanted to see you at all cost..."
... his smile turned... strangely inhuman. "... but they didn't specify that I needed to bring you back in a good shape. If you try my patience... you WILL regret it." Delia stepped backward, feeling danger. Frigidia, her, stepped foward... "Who... who do you think you are?!? What are you talking about?" The creature turned to Frigidia. "I suggest you keep out of cases where you don't belong. Your future might depend on it..." Frigidia's face turned a funny color while Delia felt that things were not going for the better... |

| Luke: "You act like I'm some good guy."
Luke cracked his knuckles in anticipation. Luke: "Normally I stay away from fighting because it gets boring, but you're putting me in a bad position." Luke took a step towards the mystery man and pushed Maya behind him. Luke: "It isn't hard to tell that you exist outside of fate, which is good and such, but you're missing out on the energy that you get when you break fate. Here, I'll show you just one chain of fate." Luke strummed three notes on his guitar and ten chains appeared around him. The chains seemed to be the only thing locking him into reality. Luke played another note and the chain around his neck shattered. There was a brief silence before Luke started to quickly play Guile's Theme The air Luke began to stir. Luke: "Sound Crash!" Every note Luke hit became a very accurate shockwave aimed at the man. The fast paced song also seemed to provide a barrier around Luke, Maya, and the two Ex Beings. |

| "You don't know what you have unleashed, fool..."
BAM! The Sound Crash slammed straight into the weird man, annihiliting it and sending its destroyed cloak pieces flying in the wind! ... or so it seemed. The threads of fate... something had got out of the man when it was destroyed. The "man" was nothing more than a shell... "I am a Superior Force... an ancient creature created by the mistakes of this world's and all worlds' inhabitants... an embodiement of Sin. Your powers are useless against me for I am the antithesis of everything your powers stand for..." It was hard to explain... but a figure seemingly came out of nowhere, appearing in the middle of the place... a strange creature that was so familiar... "Huh? What?" Delia... for some reason, she recognized this being... The creature in the middle of a strange sphere... a hole in the fabric of time and space, the threads of Fate unable to reach to it. In the center of the sphere, a humanoid mouse, a bit like the Ex Beings... except that this one was male, orange with yellow cheeks. The creature looked a lot like a humanoid version of the Pokemon World's Raichu... The being grasped the hilt of a strange blade... a strange shaped blade, almost like a metallic angel wing, the feathers being in truth small blades, a blood-red eye located on the hilt. As the being slowly opened his eyes, the sword's eye opened as well... "Mortals call me "Siryx"... after the name I once had, back when I was alive... back when I was a mortal myself... but I am no longer alive. I am the antithesis of Life... I am permanence, an eternal being. Temporary beings like you can never hope to grasp the nature of beings such as myself. Likewise, your laughable ability to manipulate Fate, while impressive to my "masters", is nothing to me. I am eternity... I feel neither regret, nor remorse, nor sorrow, nor sadness. The continued existence of creatures which you refer to as "innocents" is of no interest to me. You WILL comply... or I will break you." This creature... was Evil at its purest state. Although the being still had a mortal body, its soul had long passed the state of decay that allowed people to consider it alive on a spiritual plane. The creature was a vacuum... a living black hole which consumed everything and everyone... a force that was not meant to be allowed continued existence within the timeline. Deep within her heart, Delia understood it. She saw what Luke and Maya saw... she saw the sphere, the vacuum... she felt at this moment that what she was looking at was the face of Evil, not the face of a mortal. A strange feeling of serenity came to her... an acceptance of things to come... and an unknown determination. She was not going to die here... not here, not now. She also felt something... Luke and Maya... how did she learn of their names? She do not know... but she somehow felt as if they were the keys... Frigidia, her, saw nothing. All that she saw was the body, the sphere eluding her limited perceptions. She became angered at this mock-up of an Ex Being... this abomination. She took out Durandal, her Dark Weapon, and pointed at the foe. She then charged foward, her words eluding all those around her... Siryx simply pointed one of his hands toward Frigidia and the creature stopped right in her tracks... and in an instant, black chains came out of the sphere. Those were like chains of Fate... except... totally twisted. The strange chains wrapped around the female and slowly, she stopped, her eyes becoming... empty. "Worthless temporary being. As if a mock-up of Mother Ex stood a chance against the power of Finality!" Siryx made a hand gesture and instantly, Frigidia was vaporized, completely erased from the timeline... and then, he turned back to Luke. "Although we never met... your soul must be recognizing the Power by now... for our Powers did clash in the past. I am not nearly as weak as I was, back then. This time, you are not to prevail. You will come with me... or I will show you how laughable you truly are. I will show you... that you cannot protect anyone." |
