After the events at the office and at the temple, B. would exit from the South Gate completely normal, as if she'd been there the entire time. She seemed to appear out of nowhere, as if a light filling a shadow, yet with a deep sadness and pain in her eyes for some reason. She couldn't quite put her finger on it, but something about the air in the Temple reminded her of him... And quite honestly, she really missed him, even though she was the one who left. She didn't want to admit it for whatever reason, but it was actually getting to her.

She stepped down the stairs slowly, her long, pink hair glowing as it bounced just as loftily as it could with each step. She thought deeply on the matters at hand that were actually really heavy and how she was busy messing around. Even he was doing other things that were important and she was just lollygagging. She wanted to help. She wanted to take a more active role in all of this. She thought very hard on what she could do... As well as why she even wanted to. She paused as her heart jumped, causing her to blush, yet her eyes darted to the side as if trying to avert the truth of these feelings. Why was she still so shy about expressing these things? Especially when he was nowhere near... It had to be something about that wind.

She looked up and over the trees, able to see just above them, as she hadn't descended too far down the staircase yet leading from the Temple Grounds. For some reason... She looked to the School far off on the other end of the Delta. It looked pretty important... Maybe there were answers for her there. Perhaps.

"Enjoying your time by yourself...?" a strange, nearly woeful voice spoke from the shadows of the trees, "You'll have it for the rest of your days if you don't start listening to your heart and soul more." The voice quickly changed to what sounded like someone more irate, yet still the same person. No trace of who nor what it was could be found.

"Huh?" she was suddenly jolted out of her thought by the sound of a two-toned voice, yet she couldn't see anyone around. "... Who are you? And what do you know about any of this?" She didn't even notice anyone before, and was actually rather upset with herself for not being more alert. She hoped she didn't have to fight, but she would if necessary.

The sorrowful voice spoke out again, "Poor you... Playing a game you don't even know the rules to... Using your head to try to sort out matters of your heart..." The creaking of metal like the turning of a pipe could be heard grinding against its holster in the darkness, before piercing red eyes gleamed from the darkness, "Concerned about others lollygagging, yet being the one goofing off the most!" Loud, jangling footsteps could be heard in the distance, treading closer, weight apparent in every stomp. "... You're the Grand Magistrate, aren't you...? But, with all that power, so little you are doing in terms of your people... Your family..." Finally, a great, statuesque, semi-mechanical figure stood before the girl with a metallic hockey mask, giant bull horns and a mechanical corset that harbored a lock around her throat in the shape of a heart, which bellowed as she cried out with an intense fury, "Or even your beloved!!!", as if that were what she were most upset about. "I do believe you've had enough of sitting around and not doing anything for anyone save yourself, wouldn't you agree?!" She hadn't been making the best decisions lately, even though it seemed like she truly wanted to. Mispair had been watching, even if she hadn't been detected. "You've been making more trouble whilst you've been playing around, but not doing much in terms of fixing anything..." It seemed like, for some reason, that was what this beautiful behemoth seemed to be most depressed about. Perhaps, disappointed. "And it's starting to really hit you now, isn't it?" Fortunately, it meant that her heart and soul were getting ripe... Fortunately.

Silently flickering in, having bypassed security (the River God), the Phantom would sit perched in a nearby tree, covered by the shade and rustling of the leaves as the wind blew upon his arrival. He snooped around, spotting B. and a strange figure... "... What's the deal here...?"

Upon a closer inspection, it was revealed to be Mispair; the Phantom's lover and counterpart, as well as the Living Shadow of B., just as K.T. is the Living Shadow of T. "... Woah, shit. Looks like Mispy's pissed..." She was a real danger to everyone (sometimes, even the Phantom) when she was pissed... And even though he liked it about her for reasons only lovers would understand, he knew that in terms of her fighting against herself, it wasn't good.

"... We should help her..." he muttered, only to be quickly scolded, "No. This is for her, not you. She has to deal with her issues on her own with herself. Stop getting in the way of that; she needs to do this on her own if she's gonna grow." He fell silent, lowering his head, slightly shamed by the fact that he'd been pampering and/or babying her too much without even realizing, even in his knowing. The thought that he may have been the one holding her back stung a bit. "... Right..." he muttered lowly, "... But I can't help feeling that something... Isn't right..." He would keep a watchful eye over her, but ultimately would stay put. He actually wanted to see how she would deal with her own issues... Especially when given such a foreboding form such as Mispair. It gave him chills of both fear and sensuality.

Subject: Re: The Promise Unforgotten. Thu Jun 04, 2015 11:29 am

"That's not...!!!" she wanted to say that it wasn't true, these words that were being said to her, but she knew that most of them actually were spot on, save for the ones intensified by the woman's emotional fit. She wasn't doing much as the Grand Magistrate in terms of leading her people after they were freed. She figured that she didn't need to. Everything got handled normally before, right? There should be no difference now. "... And... How do you... Know these things, anyway? You seem familiar, but..." she backed away a bit, trying to keep a certain distance between herself and this iron maiden, of sorts. "... Stop lecturing me and start giving me answers I'm asking for!"

"Still trapped in your head, yet you don't even know your own mind!" she cried, her body visibly heating up with a fiery incandescence, "This is why one needs to get out of their Head after a time and get their HEART and SOUL in order!!" Her right arm completely wrapped in the metal of her great gauntlet would rise up beside her, concentrating black and red flames that formed around her body into her palm. "The Red Queen, in all her guises, MUST be served!!!" From the black and red flames would burst a scythe of equivalent color, yet of solidified constitution as the flames condensed into the metal of the crimson-ebony blade. "Every heart needs to be fulfilled of its desires... Including others that have been neglected... Yet those desires also need to be kept under a strict management in order to ensure they are proper and good..." Slowly, the scythe would be raised above Mispair's head, her eyes harboring a deep longing, sadness and fury, "... But if you cannot learn to manage your head with your heart and vice versa to think about and feel for others without getting wrapped up in yourself, then..." At that moment, she gripped her weapon tightly, causing some sort of hellacious inferno to ignite inside of the cross-shaped hole in her armored chest, something like a furnace.

"OFF WITH YOUR HEAD!!!!"

She took the handle of the scythe with her other hand and gave one good, clean swing at B.'s neck, fully intending to take her head right off. There was clearly a great deal of madness in her very tone, something of which seemed to be powering that furnace inside of her chest cavity.

K.T. was shocked when he saw how vehemently and mercilessly Mispair swung her weapon of execution, as if she had no such care about the destruction of herself nor others. He jumped up quickly, ready to hop right into the fray and take things from here, yet was halted immediately by a powerful force. "Sit. Down." His eyes pulsated with fury through his mask, suddenly gleaming like crystal in the dark sockets, "... But she's going to kill her!! And it doesn't even look like she cares!!! I have to...!" He tried to move, yet still couldn't, as if part of himself was conflicted and holding him in place, similarly to how Mispair and B. were facing off. "Huh. You talk about love and faith and trust, but it looks like you've only got enough for one of those inside of your soul." Those words alone were like a siren that halted his Mind even after his Soul was telling him to keep going. He thought deeply on those words, his body still motionless, before he realized that... He was right. He may have loved her so much, but apparently, he was having issues with trusting her and her own strength. It was actually pretty pitiful, in his eyes, and he hated to think he was actually like that. Quite honestly, it was a form of sexism that he hadn't even previously thought about before; unconscious sexism. How very brutal. "Ya know, you two really aren't so different. Still pretty selfish and still pretty fresh, despite all you know and all you've been through." It was almost cute, but these two being as powerful as they were... It was actually pretty bad if they didn't get that in order and grow up.

"... How Dare I."

He crouched down after this, not saying a word with his mouth, but everything after would be with his heart alone. He trusted the Phantom before and in that, they saved the Veritas. Now, maybe, if he trusted in him again, as well as B., herself... They could save her without getting in the way of her own personal growth and progress, as he had been probably unconsciously doing previously. His eyes still remained gleaming like crystal, and his face seemed stern and tense, but filled with hope.

Subject: Re: The Promise Unforgotten. Thu Jun 04, 2015 12:40 pm

"What are you talking about!?!?" Still, B. was very unclear about why this was happening nor what she was referring to, but apparently, she was being selfish and neglecting something. "And who the hell are you, anyway?!" Though she'd taken the place of Mispair before, she hadn't ever seen her act outside of herself, which was something new and alarming, and thus why she couldn't quite decipher who nor what she was, even in clear sight. These 'Tensei' things were still pretty new to her, even if it was probably commonplace to T.

When she saw that her life was, yet again, somehow being threatened by a random force, she couldn't help but be pissed. "You still haven't answered my questions..." she grumbled, having had enough of this woman spewing these slanderous things about her, "So, you're not going to tell me anything, right...?" Her eyes narrowed, focusing on the blazing inferno the moment it ignited, "Then I'll just have to find out for myself!!!" She leaned back swiftly to avoid having her head taken off, the powerful breeze blowing her barely nicked hair before she sprung back upright with a burning purple flare in her eyes. At her very Phantasmal Gaze glaring belligerently at the woman's furnace-like chest cavity, her own purple flames would ignite inside of the red and black flames, attempting to consume them and give B. the info whilst the fires collided.

Slowly, Mispair retracted her scythe once her rather wide-arc swing missed. Scythes were typically slower and more predictable than most weapons, and though rather deadly (especially in Mispair's hands), she wasn't one to move very quickly, but very precisely. "Yes... YOU want answers, don't you?" The look in the girl's eyes nearly mimicked the sight of the woman behind the metallic horned hockey mask, save for coloration of their blazing eyes, yet their passionate flame of fury was for two different, opposite reasons entirely. "YOU want to be serviced, yet are doing nothing serviceable for anyone, yourself..." Seemingly apathetic about the simple purple spark in her chest, Mispair lowered her scythe's blade into the line of sight of the girl, letting her Phantasmal Gaze be reflected back into her own head, from whence it came. "Time for YOU to look into the mirror, my dear..." The flame within her was very quickly apprehended by a small bubble of 'Rejection,' keeping it from burning for too long before it would simply fizzle out, leaving Mispair's flames of 'Burning Condemnation' in her chest from being tampered with.

To protect that spot, that same 'Isolated Rejection' would coat the rather large cross-shaped hole in Mispair's chest and seal it and the flames within it up completely, keeping anything else from permeating the barrier of 'Rejection' now covering her single exposed area. "You are just like him, you know..." she said rather sadly, as if that were the reason why this was happening, "... Always asking, but seldom listening unless something you want to hear..." She crept closer again, rather slowly, slamming her scythe into the ground and scraping it through the ground as she neared. "You know... The Tensei family issues are getting resolved... And just because you're part of them now doesn't mean your own people don't need you, still..." The Tensei had been doing a great deal of work whilst the Malfortuna were being rather sluggishly led by their new 'Grand Magistrate.' "There is no obligation to be responsible with yourself nor others, however, that does not mean that you should not BE responsible about how you do affect others with your thoughts, feelings and actions..." When Mispair drew near enough, suddenly, with great fervor and force would she sling her scythe upward from the ground, tearing up all the dirt that it had been dragged through and up to split B. right down the middle. "... And what those effects of those affected may be..." Her voice was cold and filled with a merciless sorrow, as if she were thinking deeply on something that she wasn't saying outright, but only alluding to in her woeful callous heartlessness. As if having no feelings, she seemed to have no qualms with thoroughly eradicating the girl she knew was part of herself, as she felt about everyone else. Those that stood in the Iron Maiden's way were bound to be crushed by her, even if it was she, herself. Her suddenly expressionless eyes should have told it all.

Eventually, the violence ensuing inside of the holy ground was detected by the guardian of this sacred land; Khnum, the River God. His ghastly form would appear overhead, suddenly looming over the entire area with a skeletal ram's head cast under the shadow of his hat beaming down on the two that were causing such a stir. With a simple *click*, his Nile Cypress was loaded with a watery bullet from the river he commanded, firing immediately at the intruders. The size of the water bullet as well as the force of it should have been enough to either burst them out of the Sacred Isle or flatten and drown them immediately from the water pressure and volume. He had no sympathy for troublemakers in the holy land.

Subject: Re: The Promise Unforgotten. Thu Jun 04, 2015 2:05 pm

K.T. remained perched like a crow in the branches, keeping a watchful eye intently on her as she fought. Granted, he was a little enticed simply by her getting into gear and getting down to business, but still kept his composure and position hidden among the many trees nearby. "Man... She's some kinda woman, huh?" Though it was kinda hot to watch them fight, something unsettling still got under K.T.'s skin... and it made him tingle with some sort of anticipation of something to come. Just as he was figuring he needn't worry too much and should probably leave B. be, that same feeling jerked his head instinctively up toward where he felt something going down, and not to his surprise, the Guardian of the Sacred Isle started to appear.

"... Damn, I knew I was forgetting about something... It's forbidden to break the peace here, and he's the enforcer of that rule..." When the Nile Cypress was loaded and he heard the click, he already knew that the two of them would probably be wiped out immediately by this looming, protective spirit of the river. It was like the sound of thunder, that shot; yet, like lightning, the Phantom took off to intercept the watery bullet. "Shift!" he cried with a wipe of his hand into the sky, which caused the reality in the line of motion of the water bullet to be shifted upward instead of continuing forward, subsequently sending the water bullet hurdling up there, as well.

"Big fella's finally awake," he said, flickering gently as not to be seen in the air whilst gracefully landing back into a bushel of treetops, "Guess I should have known, but I wasn't paying attention, myself. Haha." But this was no laughing matter, he knew, despite how lighthearted he was trying to make it seem. "... Nice going..." he said drearily, a hint of sarcasm in his nearly deadpan voice. Khnum was a Nature Spirit; a god, no less, and could probably handle the two of them with ease, not to mention that he would interrupt some sort of important development B. needed to have in and of herself that apparently had to occur right here, right now. No interruptions. "... If this is all I can do this time..." he muttered, feeling the sensation of love burning inside of him again, "... Then we'll take him on and keep her from being interrupted. I don't want a single drop of water to distract her from her goal." He would do everything in his power to ensure that nothing got in her way, INCLUDING himself. She needed to be let be, and knowing this, would make sure that it happened that way. That would be his contribution to her growth; ensuring nothing stunted it.

"Still linked with the Pumpkinhead, right?" he muttered again, formulating a plan on the fly, "... If the Pumpkinhead takes on the River God and I deal with collateral, then the two of them should remain undisturbed, even if there's a whole lot of commotion going on around them..." Playing 'Defense' wasn't usually his thing, since he was more of a 'Relentless Assault' and 'Stealthy Evasion' type, but if it was necessary, he could always switch up the game. That was the best part about him. "So... The question now is, before Khnum rears up again... How do I get the Pumpkinhead to act...?"

Subject: Re: The Promise Unforgotten. Thu Jun 04, 2015 2:58 pm

"Don't forget we're linked at the head," the voice of the Forces of Nature spoke up on a passing breeze, "And that I am a Phantom, too, little brother." His physical form would take shape beside the Phantom with the congregating winds, the black, bulbous headed man gazing up into the shadow-covered eyes of the great guardian. "Beyond that... Khnum and I have a little score to settle..." Having 'Raijin' at his command as the element of Lightning, he also had memory of that Thunderbird that faced off with him a little while back; the same one he rode into the Delta on when the Dawn Gate first opened.

"Leave it to Aniki..." he chuckled with a wicked smile spreading on his face, slamming his fist into his palm, crackling with lightning. "... I got the family secured, you know. Even our little new face you've taken a shine to. Heh." The clouds grew dark at his coming, but only over the Sacred Isle, this time. The water bullet shot into the air would be soaked up into the clouds, which would soon spiral around the area and make the 'eye' of the storm the center where Mispair and B. were fighting, so that they wouldn't be disturbed. As the thick circling wall of clouds formed, it would begin to rain, and the Pumpkinhead would hop into the clouds and become one with them, his now elemental form shaping over them as he embodied the Flying Thunder God, keeping the three of them within the calmness underneath safe from Khnum's shots. Things would remain peaceful inside of the cloud wall... Or, as peaceful as could be maintained.

Subject: Re: The Promise Unforgotten. Fri Jun 05, 2015 3:13 pm

Just as B. thought that her 'signature' technique, of sorts, had prevailed, giving her bits and pieces of what the Burning Condemnation and the Isolated Rejection were, not only was her gaze reflected back at her, but her flaming Phantasmagoria snuffed out easily, as if it weren't even a problem.

"GAH!!!" she cried, her eyes blinded by her own sight, "You... You don't know ANYTHING about me!! Nor what I'm going through!" With her eyes temporarily out of service, she rubbed them profusely, trying to gain her blurred vision back. She heard not only the sad, but true words of the melancholy maiden, but also her heavy footsteps and scarp scythe drudging across the ground, coming nearer and nearer. "... I... My family... I mean... my curse is BROKEN! Haven't you heard? The Malfortuna Curse was broken when I was united with T.! Both curses were!" She kept rubbing her eyes and checking her vision, hoping the woman wouldn't get too close. She was terrifying; even more so now that she couldn't be seen... Something like a homicidal medieval maniac.

"I... I'm...!!!" She wanted to respond, but so much was going on and so much of what was said was actually true that she could barely find a retort, not to mention the fact that she was scared out of her mind for her life. She could call on Tigen again, probably... But she didn't want to rely on his power, since that was basically calling T. to her side. She wouldn't be that weak. She was, however, aware that she had another technique at her disposal. One that she didn't need to see in order to use.

When she heard the swing of the scythe, her eyes burst open again with another phantasmal flare, only around her, a hazy barrier of purple flames flared up around her, condensing to the point where physical as well as energetic objects wouldn't be able to enter. The scythe should have been deflected, but at the same time, the barrier could only protect her for a single strike, leaving her open after the first hit was blocked and repelled. Her eyesight was starting to return to her by this time, and the faint image of the woman before her was enough for her to climb up the stairs and create a greater gap between them whilst she recovered.

"Dammit... I knew I shouldn't have been slacking off in my training... But I didn't think anyone would try to kill me, or anything..." She was going to have to mess around with the Phantasmagoria here and maybe make something new. All she had were those two abilities that she learned randomly and still barely had control over. But, perhaps, the Kinesia that she learned from Tabrynth would help her. Maybe... She did still have the powers of the Tensei at her disposal, as well. She was going to have to learn quick, or else this would be her end.

"Poor, pitiful, ignorant, selfish little girl..." she muttered as her scythe hit the fiery barrier, knocked back thus as the girl fled up the stairs, "... Still running away from the truth, then? From yourself? From your responsibilities? Too much for a weak little whelp like you to handle or face directly?" Mispair took one heavy stomp up the stairs, causing it to crack under the might of her foot, "I know more about you than even you do. That is because I am your Living Shadow. All Tensei have them, and we are the ones that keep things from you until it is time for you to have that knowledge." She took another heavy stomp up the next stair, readying her scythe yet again, "The curse is broken, yes, but only for YOU. And even now, it has not FULLY been erased until you, yourself, undergo ALL of your Restrictions, just as T." And again, another heavy stomp up the next stair, gripping the handle of her weapon tightly. "You thought just because you two were finally together, that meant a happily ever after?! You are more ignorant than I can bear!!"

Suddenly, flames of Burning Condemnation spurt from the blade of the scythe, wrapping around its edge like a warm, fiery blanket, "While yes, you do have the power to REMEDY the curse, it is not yet DONE until YOU go to do so. And do you think that neglecting your people, abandoning your family and bringing strife to your love are doing ANYTHING for healing it?" She cocked the blade back behind her head, her hand holding it trembling with fury, "Or are you MAKING IT WORSE BY RUNNING FROM THEM ALL!?!?" With another great swipe of the scythe, a torrent of black and red flames would stream up the stairs in the arc of the swing toward B., easily incinerating all that stood in the wake of those flames of Burning Condemnation.

"In order to free us from this curse... You must face them all without running anymore... Your love, T. ... Your family, Malfortuna... and your people, the Fae..." Suddenly sullen, she took another step up the stairs, though now her foot was heavy with sadness rather than fury, carrying her woefully closer to her spiritually ignorant counterpart. "Just as the Tensei live on inside of him... We Malfortuna live on within you... So resolve yourself and you resolve your family issues... But if you ignore us... and those that love and need you most..." Her eyes flashed brightly, the flames circling around B. quickly, "... Then by our hands and with great love; by all of those of whom you make suffer with your stubbornness, you will burn..."

It was hard for K.T. to watch his love barely evade death by her own hands in a way she barely understood. He knew he could just explain it to her, but... He wouldn't interfere. Damn, it was difficult not to talk to her, or jump in and save her. Damn, it just was, and it was only because he loved her so very, very much. "... Isn't this going a little too far? She could seriously die. And she'd be gone. Like. Seriously. Dead." He sighed. "Was it too far when you were in the same position?" He thought about it... "... Yes, actually." Then, he thought again... "... But if you didn't 'go too far,' you wouldn't have exceeded your limit, or grown stronger. What was once 'too far' and out of reach is now here with you and well within your grasp at all times. Right?"

He fell silent, knowing it was true. She was weak because she hadn't gone past her limitations, of which, according to Mispair, she was running away from. K.T. wasn't even aware that she was running from these things, but after listening in on the talk as well as having one of his own, he could see that she was. He hated to know that she was running from those things... but it was true, it seemed. "This is her own way. Besides... It's kinda hot how ruthless she is. One of the things that you love about her, honestly, right? She's like that to everyone, even me. She's just as hard on herself as you are on yourself; to the point of death." It was just hard to watch her potentially destroy herself and everything she was connected to because it wasn't he, himself this time in the face of danger. But, that's where the whole 'trust' thing came in... Especially since he was NOTORIOUS for putting everything and everyone on the line, including himself and his love, so this wasn't different at all, actually. If what Mispair was saying was true... Then she really did need to step up her game and do things on her own, without T.'s help. Yet... He was rooting for her. Rooting for her with all he was. He believed in her and that she'd prevail; that she'd make the right choice and overcome this part of her family's curse that was haunting her right here and now. That which would kill her if she didn't face it and all that came attached with it, and that remained attached to her. "... Come on, baby... You can do it..."

Subject: Re: The Promise Unforgotten. Wed Jun 24, 2015 9:58 am

B. hopped to the side in a panic when the streaming flames struck up the stairs, threatening to end her with just a lick of the flares. As afraid as she was, her vision had returned to her, and she could now see the dangerous maiden still making her way up. "... You... You think I'm still running...?" she said with a sort of hesitant conviction, "... Okay, I might have been doing that before, but I wasn't trying to. I.. I just thought..." She didn't know what she thought. Maybe that things would just get better from here without her having to do much of anything, just because what had been done was what she was told would prevail. Even still, she hadn't really had the weight of the Queendom upon herself just yet, but with every word that came from Mispair, it was hitting her harder and falling upon her shoulders just as heavily as those feet trudged up the stairs. Trapped now in a swirling inferno, she had to look on as the malicious mistress stomped ever closer.

Stunned, but still rather calculating, B. somehow felt empowered now in a way she hadn't before. Something about her standing up to face this fiend, as well as the feelings of her beloved from wherever he was came to her heart and powered her mind. She was still terrified, but now that she understood what had to be done as well as coming into her place in this world and her own, she wasn't going to run from even what looked like certain death for her. "... I'm not that weak!" She cried, focusing now on her psychic power learned from Tabrynth, "And I'm gonna show you! I'll show you and him, wherever he is right now!" Suddenly, as her eyes glowed their signature lavender again, phantasmal feathered wings of the same shade would sprout from her back and blow away the hazardous flames that circled around her body, partially absorbing them. "If you're part of me, then I'm not gonna be that weak to myself, either! If I have to prove it to myself, then fine!" She would keep her eyes on Mispair's feet, and as soon as she lifted her leg again, wings would appear on her ankle and flap powerfully to throw her off balance and down the stairs. With how heavy her body was, she should have taken quite the tumble and hopefully not have been able to get up.

"You're strong, aren't you?" she continued, feeling her power growing stronger with the absorption of the Burning Condemnation, "... Then that means I can be just as powerful as you are, if I do this right!" If she listened to the words of Mispair, then perhaps that would be her strength. The woman wasn't trying to do her as much harm as she thought, and if she was, then it turned out to be something B. could reverse into a strength. Then, perhaps, if she heeded Mispair, she would eventually become like her. Hopefully that's how these Tensei worked, and if not, then perhaps her own Malfortuna heritage. "Whatever the case may be, you're not gonna defeat me here... ESPECIALLY not if I'm gonna lose to HIM!" If nothing else did it, then that would take the cake; she wasn't going to be in the shadow of her beloved, no matter how much she loved him. That's why she decided not to take his help, even if she knew that it was always available to her. "Isn't that EXACTLY how you feel?!"

Mispair fell silent as she looked on with a stale, emotionless face ever etched into the shiny metal mask she donned, listening to the girl's sudden outburst. Now that she was stepping up, it seemed like she had no more words to say to her about the subject matter. She was learning quickly. In that, the stubborn stalwart lifted her foot to take another heavy, decisive stomp and found that the same wings that appeared on B.'s back were propelling her heavy body backward just a bit, tipping the Iron Maiden over like a cow. Despite her great power and defense, she was rather slow and extremely heavy, so throwing her off balance even slightly sent her toppling to the bottom of the staircase, leaving imprints of her body pounding at the structure and tearing up the ground under her as she slid to a halt once the land was leveled again.

"... So..." she muttered with a mournfully pleasant tone, slamming her arm to the ground to slowly prop herself up, "You finally are beginning to open your ears...?" She took another heavy stomp to the ground to plant herself firmly upon it, rising just as slowly to her feet once she was leveled and balanced again, saying as she rose, "... I suppose you are not as dense and deaf as we once thought..." She was catching on quickly, which was pleasing to Mispair. Despite this, it weakened her, for without fury to power her Burning Condemnation, there was no fuel to her fire to spew at her target. "Though you know so little, at LEAST you are capable of learning..." she muttered, "... But you cannot overcome us nor yourself if you do not start listening to your Heart and your Soul..." she continued, raising her free hand up behind her. A large violet wall appeared where she cast her hand out, and she continued, "You need to listen to your feelings more than your mind... Be more truthful to yourself, as you have been in your decisions here..." The woeful woman tipped her heavy body backward, muttering softly, "... Or else..." The moment her body almost came in contact with the violet wall, it was shot forward at a high speed like a freight train, tearing up the land with her legs unmoving and up the stairs straight toward B., ready to run her feeble and fragile little body over and crush it like a twig. "...You will never go anywhere in life, and be met with an untimely end." The gap was closed in a matter of moments, and the repellant force of the wall of Rejection was enough to send Mispair midway up the stairs, which was about double the height of where B. was currently.

Whilst the two of them were passing sentiments, the ground began to tremble for a moment or two, with great rumblings occurring underground. Before too long, the ground cracked underneath them and a giant aqueous drill-like twister burst from the ground directly under B. and Mispair, which would easily grind their flesh and bones to dust in the water with how compact and pressurized the torrent of water was. Being taken completely by surprise, they should have been severely injured or killed due to the power that came from the strength of the Sacred Beast's wrath.

"The fucking hell she will..." he muttered under his breath, sensing something coming. "... Baby...!" he cried out after he saw and felt the ground rumbling. "It must have gotten through Pumpkinhead's defense..." He knew that whatever it was, it was big, and the way she was, she probably wasn't going to be able to survive it on her own. If Mispair didn't see it coming, she couldn't react as swiftly. She would probably be able to endure a hit such as this, unlike B., but probably not be able to protect her. Putting all of that together, he realized that she would legitimately die here now if he didn't do something about it. "Let's have at it, K..." he said, the ground cracking and water beginning to gush out, "You know it, T..." and as soon as the water burst, the Phantom flickered behind B. and snatched her by her waist, crying out "Altering; Space...!!!" As soon as the water touched him, everyone that was touching the water would be moved to different locations in the Veritas, with the rushing water all being shifted to the Ocean of Purity. K.T. could warp reality, which was part of Space and Time, which meant that when he 'Altered' these features, he could move things throughout different Spaces and at different Times based on what he asked for. This time, being 'Space,' he would simply shift the location of everything being attacked to prevent any of them from being attacked at all. This would also end the battle and send everyone on their separate ways.

K.T., on the other hand, had different plans in mind... When he altered his own coordinates, he utilized the link to the Phantom that had been transported to the past and altered his Time, as well, to meet up with him in the Dusk of the past... Which was once in this very same spot. No longer would he be in the present Veritas; he nor 'The Phantom,' until Khrona rises from his grave and unleashes them from the past when he wakes up from the dead.

Mispair remained silent as she watched the Phantom shoot from the shadows, already knowing what it meant due to the events that had just transpired. "... Well done..." she said to no one in particular before her location was altered by his technique.
