Dusk takes in Firo's words to contemplate before his leader chimes in. After a passionate speech Dusk remains still a moment before a misty breath escapes the helm. "A man can only be a coward if he fears to lose something. May this be a life, a love or a possession. I have none. And I know first hand the ravages of war." Dusk follows in his commaders suit, drawing both blades and rising. "Maybe today I will make a legend, but at the very least maybe I can save a life. I will charge with you m'lord, a demon, bane of their soldiers. Let us stab our battle cries into their souls and DROWN THEM IN OUR FURY!!!!" Dusk's armor begins to leak water out of the slivers and holes. He breaths heavily, his body fully braced for the charge. "For the past and future of our allies!! On your mark, m'lord!!!" |

".... My blade is yours..." Firo reaches to his shoulder for his dread knight mask only to find it barren and remembers the smoldering mask he threw off his face. "Heh ill need a new mask...." He then draws his blade and stabs it into the ground, with both hands above the hilt and his forehead pressed unto the hilt of the blade, he says his short prayer," My blade is drawn, no tears to shed.... Ill fite till dawn, the night is red, Ill sheath my blade when they close thier eyes, my fury rains until i die...." He then stands to his feet and raises his blade skyward, "DEATH TO ALL WHO OPPOSE ME I AM THE DARK TEMPEST, THE BLACK STORM, FOR LACRIADIS, AND OUR LORD SHINJI! WE SHALL PREVAIL!!!" |

-Akita/Morgan- Morgan's partner backtracks and grabs her arm. "Stop wasting time and fratenerizing with the soldiers. Come on! We got to get to the beach!" He says and drags her away from Akita. With the absence of a directive Akita turns her attention away from the Death Lyrium forces rushing forward past the defensive bunker and over towards the scorched battlefield that was recently blasted to hell. There wasn't much much left in the path of the heavily armored infantry marching towards the main city gates. Any attempt of artillery strikes against the elites strikes up against a massive bubble shield encasing the entirety of their marching forces. You were familiar with this infamous Regere tactic of moving in the best equipped of their forces until the shield of a circle of mages. Only magical force that can enter is those that enter the bubble itself. Across the battlefield you notice the sparse remains of the Lacriadis forces begin their charge straight at the forces. Even Shinji himself, Lord Prince of Lacriadis, leads the charge himself. It looks like a suicide mission... However if it fails everything and everyone not Regere in this city will fall by their blade. Twelve fellow soldiers look towards Akita as if expecting orders. Several of them saw of she heild her own against the Regere and many of these soldiers were mere peasant farmers a few hours ago. "What should we do?" One of the younger teenage soldiers asks Akita. -Firo/Dusk- Shinji sprints forward and you both immediately follow. The sprint through the mud and heavy showers is hard and sluggish but the courage in your hearts refuses to let you slow down one bit. Slowly other Lacriadis soldiers hear the call and join beside you. More and more come until collective a small warband sprints beside you to give their lives to save the city; all following Shinji as he takes point running harder and roaring louder then everyone else. Upon reaching the bubble shield Shinji cuts through flawlessly with both blades. Both of you fell a powerfull tug against your magical items as the shield attempts to push you back until you cut straight through it like wax paper then proceed. From within the bubble the rain stops. There is an errie feeling to the silence within here and everything is quiet beside muffled explosions of the outside battlefield, screams of your battle brothers, and metal joints creaking in sprint. Around you is an impressive force of true Lacriadis's ready to give their lives to save the city. Before you is a massive wall of giant black iron tower shields in front of hulking knights in massive armor. They stand juxtaposing from one another with halberds held high that spark with lighting. Over their soldiers are lightly armored soldiers all aimming strikes. "Steady! Aim! FIRE!" A Regere commander yells then swings his curved officer sword. A slit second after that swing every rifle fires and a wall of fire soars towards the charging force, slaying everyone hit. Shinji, Dusk, and Firo remain unhit during the first wave. Every Regere soldier loads the next bullet of their bolt-action rifles. "FIRE!" is yelled again and a second wave is fired, taking out more than last time but everyone continues forward regardless. Firo and Dusk remain unharmed once again however Shinji takes a bullet to the gut that blasts off a chunk of his breastplate along with some flesh. Still he pushes forward roaring louder than ever. The Third wave is ready to be fired. At this point you are near point blank with the enemy. |

Dusk rushes passionately towards quite considerable death. He scans the line, the defense is superb. Trying to avoid the admiration again he focuses everythin on a plan to break it down. The line only had small specific weakpoints, the lines between each shield. He only had one shot, and he was the heaviest here. Shinji was injured, Firo was a killer not a line breaker. So out of all these soldiers he was really the most well built for this. One chance, one goal, one man. Interesting challenge. Dusk channeles his magic, needing to cast two spells in a row is rare and he needed that now more than ever. He readies both blades upon his right side, the good side for this plan. He then slashes from low to high, making his water wave to crash inbetween the two shields. Hopefully some of that got through. He then, without looking or doubting, made the aqua spikes spiral out his armor as he crashed his shoulder into that same crack between shields. All his might, more power than he ever mustered at once, all in this one crashing impact. It was like an ocean wave breaking against a rocky cliff. |

Although the situation looked bleak, Akita realized these men had nowhere to turn and were desperate waiting for someone to tell them where or what to do. Akita gathered the men up and explain the situation as calmly as possible but that their leader is risking his life to fight for the land he loves and those men following him share that with him, are you guys willing to risk what that man is risking? If so, help your lord fight back the invaders and charge in with him. Akita wasn't sure if these men would be willing to fight after the slaughter, but these men wanted hope, and this was their last shot to push them back. |

Firo rushes into battle alongside Shinji and Dusk, he suddenly sees Shinji get blasted but hears Shinji yelling even more ferociously. Firo suddenly succumbs to his battle rage and activates the dark lyrium upon his hilt. A black fire juts from his blade but instead of lighting the area around him with the black flames, it seems to consume light casting shadows all around the flames. Firo raises his blade for a downstroke toward the nearest Regere Soldier. "FOR LORD SHINJI AND ALL OF LACRIADAS KILL! LET NOT A SINGLE REGERE SOLDIER LIVE TO HOLD THESE SINS!" |

-Dusk/Firo- Shinji sprints directly at the wall of iron. A knight trusts his halberd at him but Shinji gracefully parries across the axehead and chops it off the pole without stopping. Slashing his blade into the metal iron shield before him the fire lyrium melds a large bright red slash across the shield but does cause the enemy to move any more than an inch. The following ally forces crash hard against armored elites with the enemy all forces back a step from the impact as if they weren't expecting to be hit that hard. Many however meet their ends at the end of a halberd's blade with the knights cleaving through bodies of soldiers and even those that block are electrocuted to death. Then it was the massive golem of watery doom named Dusk that stepped to the plate. With one spell enchanted slash he split open a small gap between two shields then followed through with an explosion of water spikes from his own bodies. The two knights standing before dusk had no idea and stood no chance. Despite their heavy armor Dusk's spike impale straight through their bodies with the blue water turning bright red as it emerged out the other side of their torsos. In that moment that two soldier fell defeated and an opening in the enemy's defenses, Shinji and his men gave it their all and were nearly close to breaking through as the knights struggle to fill in the hole in their defenses and push them back to regain formation. In that brief opening, in that brief moment of victorious fatigue by Dusk, the only thing to follow several fire bullet striking Dusk dead in the chest, his body jointing backward with the power of his bullet as it pierced his armor and caused him to bleed of mixer of blood and water magic. That was only followed by the blade of a knight's halberd sinking straight into Dusk's heart as Dusk left stood at the front of the opening of the breach in their defenses. "DUSK!!!" Shinji screams as he fights to break past the knights barely holding as they push back Shinji and his forces behind Dusk. The electricity pulses throughout all of Dusk's body causing great pain and himself barely able to control his muscles. There was something strange he feel. Instead of feeling weak Dusk felt he was exploding with energy and power. The cells within Dusk's chest plate began to glow and shake violently as they are charged up by the knight's electric halbert. Behind the knight's helmet was an expression of growing terror as Dusk's eyes began to glow bright teal with water and electricity. Dusk grabs hold of the shaft of the Halberd and feels he could bring it like a twig. While others struggled to break through the iron wall Firo however went all out. Charging his blade up in mid sprint Shinji is one of the first to get up towards the knights. The knight trusts his halberd and Firo stares it down, the spear head only an inch away from Firo's pupil before he shiftly dashes to the right dodging the halberd's blade completely. Getting into attacking distance with knight before Firo he then slashes the blade of his soul-eater downwards. The cursed flamed blade cuts through the Knght's armor and shield like butter to a freshly forged blade. The knight splits apart in two down the middle with black flames and blood shooting out of the cut. Firo doesn't stop there. He pushes through his victim, the knight opening apart like a door and spraying blood and black flame in Firo's path as he literally walks straight through him. The two rifleman behind the knight only have a second of horror before Firo diagonally cleaves one in two before cutting the head of the other clean off. Firo still doesn't stop. The officer behind them attempts to block Firo with his own sword. He manages but the force of it causes him to slide backwards with his steel boots sliding across the ground as Firo relentlessly continues forward pushing him with him. Despite blocking Firo's blade the black flames only grow and grow until they rain down like a mist over the office until he is obscured completely by black abyss followed only by the sound of him screaming, lowering his guard to allow Firo to follow his slash to cleave him in two, and the remains of his body completely melted away into a fleshy husk. Finally Firo stops and notices his right hand feeling like its on fire. Looking at his sword hand he notices his whole forearm is burning with black flame and notices that his skin is jet black. This has never happened before and it feels like its spreading. The sword itself is burning brighter than it has ever before. Firo was alone very deep into enemy territory. Regere soldiers encircle Firo completely and close in with lances and swords from all directions to slay him. -Akita/Amissio- Akita, Amissio, Aoi, and the several other soldier travel towards the edge of the bubble shield. The soldiers and Akita have no issue entering passed the barrier however Aoi and Amissio are beings of pure magic. To them the barrier is a solid brick. "Alight so here is the plan. We are to support the main force by flanking their whole defensive force." Aoi says as he rests his hand on the barrier to study it. "WHAT?! ARE YOU CRAZY?! WE ARE ONLY A BAND OF LIKE 20?!" One of the soldiers freaks out. "Yes and as far as I can tell we out match them with just that. You just stick close and defend me and Amissio over here. We'll do all the work..." Aoi says to the soldiers and Akita before turning To Amissio. Aoi swings his right arm outwards and out of his finger tips extends massive dark red claws of death lyrium magic. "This barrier is the doing of a circle of mages. It is a part of them and by extension their souls. Once I cut this open for us to enter... They'll know we're here." Aoi says then readies to slash his claws. "Are you ready partner? Once we go in there is no going back. You can't hold anything back or were dead.... and You know how dangerous that can get." Aoi speaks. |

Dusk grins on a face so twisted in pain and excitement, he could of sworn it would be his. He had never seen his face, so he could look likw anyone. A boy, a baker, a prince, an ass. But right at that moment, that face he made, a twisted grin of adrenaline, revenge and a high on battle; that was what he could swear was a face to match his soul. And as much as he hated it, he loved it. Dusk's body began to seep water. From each slit in the armor or mail, from every hole in the helm, and from the core in his chest. His teal glowing eyes narrowed upon his now scared enemies. He smiled in contempt; he bested the challenge that was set before him, now this was his reward. Consequences would be left for after their victory. Dusk uses the energy to apply some healing through the water to his injured body. There was far to much to cure instantly but this would keep him going for his coup de gras. He first considered opening the shield wall further to let other men in. But either greed or concern stopped him from this, he could not tell. Why would he let the others near a typhoon? So instead he increased the spike size on all spikes of his armor, far past usual lengths. The action drove him more toward the look of a monster than a man. A perfect sight to see at these men's final moments. He readied himself, each blade and spike dripping with water and blood. Like the gapping maw of a war hungry beast. Maybe that was his destiny, a beast consumed by war and ravaging the lives of warriors until his final breaths. Normally, he would detest this. Normally, he would hate to end the lives of so many young fools. But this was anything but normal. And the jaw's of the ocean's unholy beast were agape, ready to consume them, bones and all! Dusk moves forward, breaking the halberd with his elbow as he slashes the soldier down. Then begins an almost dancelike wave of motion. Slashes leading into one another, left head slash. Right gut slash. Slash up soldier to right's chest, then down the left soldiers neck. A wave of motion, a torrent of blood, water and steel rages through the enemy lines. Spikes tearing down defenses, blades tearing upon men, and all the while a certain hum is in the air. Like a man is humming a rhythm, to each and every slash. Some men look in horror and discover it is the monster that is tearing into the unit. But Dusk pays this no heed. He is in a happy place, a place warm from blood and cool with water. He twirls his swords up and down his sides counting a rhythm out loud now. "One two three-" a group of men fall. "One two three-" again. He doesn't stop, he just goes down the side away from Firo's work as he carves, quite literally, a blood soaked path. The entire world around him is wet from blood or water and it only seemed to make his motions more lucid, more alive. He was so entranced by it all and when he finally found himself soaked all over with all sorts of fluids he finally awoke from it. He saw the path carved- no the clearing through the soldiers his hands made. His hands, no artisan hands as he wished. No they were the armor clad, blood splattered hands of a soldier. "Shinji!" Dusk called, forgetting all formalities in the moment. "I didn't get any of our guys did I? I mean it was really messy and I didn't see too well." He felt the energy and the real pain soak in and kneeled down one a knee for support. He then started to chuckle, very quietly. "I suppose I'd make a decent chef, these guys look diced and ready for stew, eh?" Then Dusk thought it over a moment. "Fuck. I can't eat." Edited by ranaxom, Nov 24 2013, 05:05 AM.
