"That's fine. Your the best thing that's ever happened to me. I'm not letting you go."
Akron took one last look at the scenery. "Ready to head out?"
As he said that a crossbow bolt pierced his bad arm. Behind him more black knights on hell hounds appeared. The lead rider bore gold traces on his armor. Larger foot soldiers and robed mages followed behind. In the ancient language the leader spoke "kill them! run them down and offer their bodies to the mad lord! Drink their blood my hounds."
Akron pulled the bolt out. His shoulder was twisted at an odd angle. "Stay up here and be overwhelmed or climb down where they have the advantage...go down, I'll buy you time to hide." Akron drew his sword and waved it in defiance at the enemy.
English
-
With a cocky smile I wield the keyblade and begin a spell of light. "You are so incredibly forgetful. I'm not some defenseless maiden." After there is a blast of light to stun the enemy. I begin to cast a Regen spell on us both. It will take a little longer, but I've no trouble keeping busy with the enemies that affront me.
-
"No at this point it's more so you have enough energy to patch me up after I do something stupid." Akron kicked a hound off the ledge of the spiral cliff that led to the oasis. A larger black knight stepped forward, easily seven feet. "Nikki, fall back." Akron lunged at the knight and drove his sword into his stomach. The knight pulled out the sword and shield bashed Akron back. The brute roared and brought his heavy axe down. Akron rolled as the axe split the rock and sent shrapnel flying. Akron shoved a dagger into the knight's knee but it just kicked Akron back further. Akron got up, summoning one of his swords. "Nikki, when I say so, shoot a flare."
-
Nikki nods and falls back. She readies a spell for a flare and begins the laborious and slow process of creating a specific spell to increase Akron's resistance and defense to the Chaos energy. The dead enemies that fall fuel and give Nikki the 'feel' of the needed magic. The flare is ready at any moment.
-
Another brute appears. He is flanked by two hell hound riders and a Mage. The brute charged, the riders shot their crossbows and the Mage cast a defensive spell. Akron dodged the swing, blocked the bolts and rolled behind them. He stabbed his sword in one of the hound's head, the other hound. Swiped its paw at Akron and he fell a good ten feet off the ledge. The brute and hound advanced on Nikki.
-
Nikki's worry for Akron is not overridden by the charging enemies. Instead she faces them with a stalwart determination. Imbuing the keyblade with light she casts the flare spell as soon as the hound and brute are with range. Quickly she decapitates the hound as it shudders in the onslaught of light. The brute on the other hand recovers. She readies another flare spell just in case. Although the brute will likely not be affected by a second cast, any encroaching enemies will be. Now she proceeds to carefully engage the brute. She drops her heart rate and matches it to the enemy. It's a slow and tiresome dance, but she she manages through a series of quick parries and jabs to tire the brute. As it defends against successive, fast paced, and weak attacks Nikki cast an energy blast sending it backwards. As the brute loses balance Nikki delivers a finishing blow to the being. "Akron!!" She yells as she backs her way to where he fell, defending as needed against the enemies.
-
Another hound pounded behind Nikki but an arrow suddenly protruded from its head. Underneath Akron had summoned a bow and was picking off targets. The commanding knight saw the new threat and drew his crossbow. Using is years of experience to his advantage he fired a straight and true bolt that hit one of Akron's arteries. Akron ducked behind a rock as the knights who remained at the top began to fire a volley. Akron would peek his head out occasionally and fire an arrow killing a target. A regular knight leaped down and sliced his sword. Akron dodged, collected blood in his hand then threw it at the knight. It blinded him and Akron used his abilities to harden it impaling the poor foot soldier. He screamed "NOW!"
-
Nikki cast the flare. The power having built up over time spread the spell farther and allowed it to last a little long. Just long enough for Nikki to reduce the hound to an inactive state, take out a few enemies, and join Akron once again.
-
Akron used the advantage to shoot the distracted enemies. He hardened his blood stopping the flow and preserving the precious liquid he needed. His skin had become even more pale; the loss of his arm and the pierced artery taking its toll. The commanding knight smelling victory ordered his troops to halt. He dismounted drawing a spear. He wanted the personal kill.
-
Nikki rubbed her head. "Akron, on heavens earth what am I to do with you?" Suddenly her attention was drawn to the imposing leader of this shanty brigade. She watches him come forward full of confidence and pride. "Pride comes before a fall." She mutters beneath her breath and stands guard over Akron.
-
The knight said something in the gods' language. When no response was given he repeated the phrase. "He said stand down little girl, let the men fight." Akron unsteadily got up. "Nikki if you want to know what it is to fight a champion of chaos, now is a good time, he's close to ascending to one."
-
I nod and collect myself. Still fresh for battle I decide to engage cautiously, match my heart rate to my enemy, and finish him off when the opportune moment shows itself. "Well Akron I suppose there is no time like the present." I advance and simply regard my enemy as the lamb to slaughter he is. Wholly unworthy of a drop from my lips. Instead my eyes read him like the prey he is. I begin a new spell of pure light which will damage the enemy when they step within a 5ft diameter of me. It will take some time to complete. So while I wait I offer the first attack. A side swipe of the Keyblade followed by a defensive step back, ready to counter and draw on more space as need be. I am being cautious.
-
The knight blocked the strike and sweeped his feet kicking Nikki's feet from under her. He brought the spear down in quick thrusts as Nikki rolled away and recovered (is it ok if don't really control you but prevent you from harm for the sake of the fight?) he didn't get too greedy and stopped his advance after a while. He noticed the protective diameter around her then took a few more steps back. He cast a spell upon himself and an aura of darkness covered him. He charged again.
-
[spoiler]Yeah you guys on Bungie have a weird way of fighting. LOL definitely still getting used to it XD yeah it's ok though. The way I RP fight is prolly too complicated for this, so it's all good.[/spoiler] As Nikki rolls out of the way she circles the enemy and her spell finishes. The diameter around her combines defensive and offensive elements. Still as she sees him cast his own spell of darkness she realizes that the two spells contrast and will neutralize each other, thus only for show. Silently she imbues the inner part of the keyblade with more light. Mentally she prepares in her pocket dimension a longer dagger for immediate use when she needs it. She then stops and waits for him to attack.
-
The knight did not lunge. Instead he said something again in the ancient tongue. A name seemed to be mentioned but to Nikki it was unknown. He lowered his spear and spoke a command. The crossbow men at the top aimed their weapons at Akron and Nikki. There was nowhere to go, they were at the mercy of the commanding knight. He spoke again and two brutes picked Akron by his arms and dragged him away. Another brute stepped forward.
-
*At the first sign of capture, I flip up my hood and seem to vanish from sight*
-
[spoiler]doh the help when you need it :.([/spoiler] Nikki yells Akrons name as she sees him being taken away. "Not playing fair." She says as she advances on the enemy. "You die first." Emitting a hefty glow of light she slides forward and displays an unusual amount of brute force through deft attacks. Just waiting for a moment to drive the waiting dagger into her enemy. The dagger is not seen though, only summoned and used when the moment is right from the pocket dimension.
-
"Nikki don't..." Akron feebly tried to raise his hand to her but the brutes held his arms steady. The knight said something again then backhanded Nikki. Akron tried to fight again but the brute punched his stomach. "Nikki they think you're a champion...*cough* they're taking us alive so please don't fight."
-
There is a furious and wild look in Nikki's eyes. She is none too happy and shakes a bit in anger and frustration. Her kind do not take kindly to capture. As a matter of fact they do not get captured or even enter willingly. Bad memories set her heart to a high pace and she has a hard time hearing what's going on around her as she steps back at Akrons words. She attempts to calm herself, but the memories persist. Shaking her head she manages to follow the brute and Akron, but is wary not to be touched. Like a ticking bomb she fights her internal instincts which reach out to her with great malice.
-
The knights escorted them to the scarred land in that distance. A warrior sat on a rock with his back turned to the soldiers. The lead knight began to spoke. "Master...we found Oshirik's and...his..." The language should have been untranslatable to Nikki but somehow she understood. Akron suddenly shot up in fear. "No no no. You have it all wrong!" The knight prepared to punch Akron again but the warrior raised his hand. He stood up "I never expected his champion to wander so far. What is your name girl?"
-
She crosses her arms. "I think the real question here is do you deserve to know it?" Her face hardens, yet her body relaxes as she prepares for a fight. "Names don't matter, anyways.... Not to the dead." She stops and is quiet.
-
"You have flair I'll give you that." The warrior turned around. He wasn't human. His face was deformed and hideous, as if an attempt to imitate a man had failed. his twisted armor warped to fit Nikki's mind and reveal her deepest fears. His presence brought out the insanity in her. A knight stepped forward. "Mind your tone wench, you and Stormbringer at the mercy of Ragnarok the god of madness."
-
A fear coursed it's way through her. The pains of suppressed childhood memories. She blinked rapidly to restrain the burst of emotions and energy that was due. In her mind she pressed for logic. The scenario that ran rampant was impossible there was simply no way this could logically happen. Her breath quickened and she sits to control her erratic energy.
-
The god laughed at Nikki's suffering. "How does it feel, champion of light? To stand in the presence of madness? Does it make you sick? Or has your mind already shattered?" He canceled his effect and Nikki's mind restored. "You and your order are so weak, so easy to succumb to chaos. Take a look at my men." He gestured to the soldiers around him "humans didn't start like this, they started off in order all of them. But with the introduction of chaos, and they joined. For power, because they are greedy. Humans aren't made for order, they're made for chaos. That's why the world shall end in it." "You idiot." Akron got up. "They succumb because of you, everyone is strong enough to stand up to chaos. They just need the strength." Ragnarok walked up to Akron. "Is that so?" He cut his hand and black blood poured out of it. It formed into a sword. "Let's see how strong you are." He stabbed Akron and the sword melted into Akron's body.
-
Nikki calms herself with better memories. A definitive aura begins to form around her and it beckons back to her ancient heritage. Unknown to those around and alien the grunts step back slightly uneasy. Quietly she watches what transpires around her.

*Valeyard follow the strange company cautiously, watching what conspires before him*
