Major Event; Apophis

The sound of bones cracking was the very next sound heard once the darkness was illuminated, as if the rigor mortis of a long atrophied corpse had suddenly reanimated. "Jesus... it's bright in here..." A single arm spurted up from the ground, grasping onto a wayward skull and digging its sharp claws into the sockets for support. Soon after, another arm of similar likeness, just as pale and gray as the first, would shoot up from the other side of the ground, seeking something to hold onto for leverage, just the same as the first. Before long, the two arms clenched tightly, dragging up from below the dead earth the head of a dismal looking teenager with hair just as long and unkempt as the untampered dead. A single bulbous gleaming white eye could be seen from under the darkness of the overflowing black rivers of silky hair drooping over her grayed face, yet the other was as pitch black as the night itself. The white eye darted about, scavenging the land for whatever was moving and adjusting the light uncommon to the depths of her gravesite, focusing like a vicious murderer on the snake that slipped into the tomb of the rising maiden.

"... Who Turned On The Light...?"

"Oh, shit, is that... RAW Darkness!?" Seems as though Tabitha and the king cobra were on the same page. A grim smile cracked upon her nearly cracked pale face, her white eye gleaming and quivering intensely. She never knew how to activate that Megalith that Medusa made so long ago, or even why they still had it, but if it was still active and able to generate power, then all of that was going to belong to the Kurogami. "All Darkness... Is OUR Darkness..." Tabitha's body grew dark, eventually becoming as pitch black as the night itself, with only her single white eye piercing through within it. It, at first seemed as though she were looking at the snake, but her intent was on the darkness that the snake's light couldn't touch behind his hood, as if something were there. "... Right, Frankie...?" It wasn't clear to whom or what she was referring to, but as the violent violet waves wreaked their havoc on the empty, desolate cavern under the morgue where Tabitha's body rested, the silhouette of the girl completely faded away, as if being disintegrated by the light.

The very moment Apophis turned his back and left the land covered in darkness again, a single quivering white eye and seven extra fierce red ones appeared behind him, looking to be the eyes of a large spider. It hissed at Apophis from behind his back, the presence of power rising exponentially behind him.

The violet flare that beamed down on the area would produce no light in the cavern. The darkness was permanent; an actual physicality or entity itself, and its presence was already established in the entirety of the cavernous space. The outline of a shadowy figure, very oblong and clumpy looking would be illuminated by Apophis' light and traced by the gentle stroke of his flares on its body, followed by monstrous, yet somehow childish laughter. "Heh heh heh... That Tickles..." An appendage, something of what looked like either an arm or a leg, sprouted out from the massive blob of darkness filling the majority of the cavern, slamming its limb down with great force to support its shape. Purple fire slipped through the cracks of the digits. The same sensation as on its back tingled upon the surface of the appendage, which would wriggle about wildly.

A second limb shot out into the wall, slamming firmly into it, as if holding it (or perhaps, the large dark mass) in place more securely with the might of something like a support beam pressed upon it now. The cavern would rumble.

The next four limbs were fastened securely to the dark obelisk, feeding from its power the same way Apophis had been. Sharing the same power source served also as a connection to both power sources, which gave further immunity to the vagrant violet flames. A stinger something like a great fang pricked the bottom, keeping the entire black body leveled as it clung to the tower.

The seventh appendage adjusted itself behind the large body, keeping it further balanced and from tipping over, yet also remaining open and flexible for prioritized maneuverability and flexibility, if necessary to move for any reason.

The final appendage, which was clearly an arm, would remain with the creature's head, which was glaring Apophis right in his actual set of eyes, the white eye becoming the same shade of violet as a wicked, nearly psychotic smile appeared on the being's face upon illumination. At that moment, Apophis would see exactly the size of what was hidden from him in the darkness; a darkness that now filled the entire area with just its body alone. A darkness the light could not erase. "Boo!" she exclaimed in a raspy, wretched voice, lashing the only normal appendage on her bod outward toward the head of Apophis, to grab him directly at his jaw before or during an anticipated strike. With his power of Chaos useless, he'd have to resort to a different method of combating this giant black widow spider.
